From the Paper
"When companies decide to market the same product in different locations, they need to take into account the differences in demand in each market. One of the first decisions these companies make is whether the product will have sufficient demand in various markets to make its widespread availability worthwhile. This is commonly done when companies take on international marketing, but may be less rigorous when the product is being marketed in a single country. This research considers the marketing strategies for a ..."

Abstract
This paper illustrates how the United States has followed and could follow Sun Tzu's principles in "The Art of War" in the days prior to September 11, 2001 and during Operation Enduring Freedom.

From the Paper
"Every military leader is, or should be, familiar with Sun Tzu s Art of War. It is the preeminent primer on military tactics, strategies, and principles, and the oldest military treatise in the world. One can apply the principles of the Art of War to Operation Enduring Freedom. This paper will examine how the United States responses to terrorism since September 11 and through the present day have or have not held to Sun Tzu s principles."

Abstract
The paper discusses how "The Black Cat" and "The Gold Bug" are allegories of journies taken by the main characters. The paper shows how "The Gold Bug" is toward fortune and psychological health, while "The Black Cat" is toward madness, violence and death.

From the Paper
"Edgar Allan Poe was a master of the literary art. His use of symbolism is quite intentional and nearly all of his stories are an allegory of some sort. "The Gold Bug" and "The Black Cat" are allegories of journeys one into fulfillment and health, the other into madness and death. The story of "The Gold Bug" is one of a treasure hunt told backwards. The reader, seeing through the eyes of the unnamed doctor, assumes he is on a..."

Abstract
In this article, the writer discusses that the use of children's literature to teach primary mathematics is an evolving approach which can make good use of E. Carle's "The Grouchy Lady Bug" (1996). The paper explains related counting and other numeracy exercises geared to ladybugs, then shapes and drawing, interspersed with questions, and an introduction to counting by 2s or 5s and why this might be useful. The writer maintains that Grade One learners need short tasks that make sense in terms of much learning to occur in this year, compared to others.

Abstract
The following paper will look at heathenism and at its collision in the twentieth century with the "new-age" Christianity of Sun Myung Moon. The paper will specifically explore the history of "heathenism" within Korea during the pre-modern period (and right up to the dawn of the twentieth century) and the impact that heathenism had upon the culture of that land - to say nothing of the obvious religious effects. From there, the paper will take time to examine the unification church of Sun Myung Moon and its impact upon Korea and the world at large. In the final analysis, Christianity - like the "heathen" religions which preceded it - exercised a powerful influence upon Korean history and Mr. Myung Moon has, in some important respects, come to be the "second coming" of the old Christian missionaries.

Abstract
This paper examines how Niccolo Machiavelli and Sun Tzu were two of the most influential thinkers and military strategists of all time and how many of their ideas and notions are still being used to this day in regards to warfare and even business. In particular, the paper compares and contrasts the ideas of these two men concerning the act of war, and, despite their similarities, show how different the work of each man truly was.

From the Paper
"Although the concept of fortuna is unique to Machiavelli, Sun Tzu relies heavily on the idea of opportunity as well. Because Sun does not believe in fortuna in the same way Machiavelli does, Sun says that opportunity comes not from our strength or success but from the failure and mistakes of our enemies. Because of this, Sun Tzu says that we must always be ready and waiting to take advantage of the opportunity that the enemy will give us. Sun portrays this idea well in chapter 4 of the Art of War when he says; "To secure ourselves against defeat lies in our own hands, but the opportunity of defeating the enemy is provided by the enemy himself" (The Art of War, p. 19). We can see here that Machiavelli believes that through proper preparation you can successfully guard yourself against defeat, but the opportunity for victory can only from taking advantage of your enemies mistakes.

Abstract
This paper first provides a detailed description of the visuals in the painting and then provides an interpretation of what is seen. The writer also interprets some attributes of the painting in regard to the artist's personal life.

From the Paper
"The tendency towards a positive outlook in the face of difficult circumstances may be indicative of the enjoyment Van Gogh derived from nature at this time. Nature, the artist seems to say, can teach the viewer a variety of lessons. Adaptation is one of them. Like the olive trees, human beings have many difficulties to cope with in life. These difficulties however can be seen as symbolized by the simultaneously destructive and life-giving force of the sun. How this force manifests in life depends upon the adaptability of the individual."

"Introduction


An analysis of a company for purposes of investment or employment should include a number of the same dimensions. A company that would make a good investment is a sound company, one where the employee is likely to find a job continuing for some time. A company that is a good place to work may be a good investment because it retains a strong and satisfied workforce. A comparison of two companies--Pitney Bowes and Sun Microsystems, Inc.--will show how they satisfy those who would invest or those who would seek an entry level management position.


PITNEY BOWES
Pitney Bowes is based in Stamford, Connecticut and manufactures and markets business equipment and services. The company is a world leader in the mailing systems market, with..."

This paper discusses the BUG case scenario, explaining privacy, security, domain name, and e-commerce issues that BUG must address.

From the Paper
"BUG's first order of business must be settling the issue of the domain name. The company that owns BUG's domain name is engaging in a practice called cybersquatting, in which it buys up domain names that it knows major companies will want to use down the road and then sells them back at a premium price. (Kennedy) This is illegal and legal means can be used to get BUG's domain name back. (Kennedy) Next, BUG needs to establish clear ownership of its intellectual property, including..."

Abstract
This paper explains that Annie Dillard's essay on "The Giant Water Bug" begins as an example of nonfiction, meditative nature writing and ends with a murder---of the frog. The author points out that,to convey a sense of meandering in her thoughts and her walking path while she watches the frog, Dillard uses long sentences and often repeats words, particularly adjectives. The paper relates that the injection of biological language suggests a sharp change in narrative tone and a reminder of the scientific aspects of nature and natural survival.

From the Paper
"Nature's real ugliness injects itself into the homespun narratives about frogs. A lower life form begins to devour a higher life form. The giant water bug that the author had only read about and appreciated in an academic sense rears its ugly head. She knows it "eats insects, tadpoles, fish, and frogs." But suddenly its presence injects drama into the descriptive passage. Now the fear and ominous nature of the passage's description of the frog's skin, its fear, and the occasional use of biological vocabulary becomes all comes together."
