Abstract
In this article, the writer studies the film 'Cache', by writer and director Michael Haneke, through a narratological analysis. The writer first provides a definition and analysis of narratology. The writer then notes that 'Cache' is a complex and ambiguous drama that readily makes itself available to narratological analysis due to its deceptively "simple" visual presentation and story structure, which in fact disguises a profoundly inventive underlying narrative approach reminiscent of Antonioni in its lack of closure and refusal to manipulate or pander to audience expectations. The writer concludes that Cache also plays with the ambiguity between the hermeneutic code and the proairetic code. The writer maintains that by allowing these two codes to interplay without well-defined closure, Haneke is able to provide his audience with an active role in the decipherment of the film's "text," a task which can continue long after the film has ended.
From the Paper
"The opening fade-in to what appears to be a simple long-shot of the house front, held for an interminable amount of time, is in fact revealed to be a videotape of the house front being watched on their television by Georges and Anne. This identical shot, or shots very nearly identical to it, is repeated several times throughout the film. Other shots which appear at first to be ordinary omniscient narrator shots (such as Georges' first visit to Majid's apartment), turn out, when repeated minutes later in another context, to have been in fact point-of-view shots taken from the position of the mysterious voyeur's hidden video camera."

"Introduction
Cache memory is a poorly understood and critical part of any computer system. A cache is a small, fast and relatively expensive memory that acts as a buffer between a device that uses large amounts of memory and its large, slow and inexpensive main memory. Caches generally fit between CPUs and main memory; however, they can also operate between main memory and the computer?s disk drives. The efficiency of a computer's ability to work with its cache can determine whether it is a high-speed system, or a moderately paced one. Cache memory can directly affect a system's performance, and adding memory after a system is up and running may not result in improved performance if the interface between the cache and the rest of the machine is poor. This research examines cache memory and explores various strategies for configuring..."

Abstract
This paper begins with an explanation of the narrative form in literature. The paper then goes on to discuss and analyze its use in fictional novels. In particular, it examines Proust's narrative style in his writings. Proust's application of the hermeneutic code, proairetic code, semantic code, symbolic code, cultural code, metaphor and metonymy, which are characteristic of the narrative form, are all discussed in this paper.
From the Paper
"Perhaps the self-image that crept into the narrator?s voice was inescapable given the circumstances under which Proust wrote. After the death of this mother in 1905 preceded by his father in 1903, he withdrew to a soundproof flat where he wrote in solitude until 1919. When presented with a questionnaire at a party game at an early age, Proust?s answers were so telling to his internal workings that they were later published in Vanity Fair magazine. When asked what he regarded as his lowest depth of misery, he replied: ?To be separated from mama.? When asked where he would like to live, he replied: ?In the country of the Ideal, or rather, of my ideal.? Proust was thirteen years old when was asked these questions. His book may have been an attempt to better answer them."

Abstract
This paper reviews Mathew Parkhill's 2003 film, the psychological thriller, "Dot The I." It analyzes the use of the narrative form and narratology to communicate the primary theme and story content in the film. The paper shows, giving examples, how the film utilizes a predominantly classical narrative strategy but that it includes innovative production values and story telling techniques, which are characteristic of the modernist narrative approach.
From the Paper
"Mathew Parkhill's "Dot The I" utilizes a limited third person narrative and complimentary elements of montage and mise en scene, which leave clues that inevitably lead to the conclusion that Carmen, the main protagonist, is a naive hero. The film utilizes a predominantly classical narrative strategy but includes innovative production values and story telling techniques, which are characteristic of the modernist narrative approach."

Abstract
This paper explains that one of the reasons for the Taliban's gain in power is that each territory in Afghanistan has its own warlord leader with little cohesion between them. The author points out that many experts believe the Taliban (1) are being trained in terrorist tactics by Iraqi war veterans with whom they have strong ties and (2) have discovered weapons caches of unused weapons left over from previous encounters, particularly shoulder-based rockets. The paper concludes that, if Afghanistan is ever to fully recover from the Taliban regime, it must not only eradicate the remaining Taliban supporters but also must develop a stronger, more democratic and fair government with social policies that ease unemployment and poverty.
From the Paper
"When the Taliban was defeated in 2001, most people thought the troubles in Afghanistan were over. Estimates put Taliban holdouts at less than 1,000, and their organization leadership seemed weak and incompetent. However, the Taliban has grown in force and organization throughout 2005, and there have been many more attacks on foreigners and people who speak out against the Taliban. For example, suicide bombing is becoming an increasingly popular mode of Taliban attack, and they stop at nothing to get their point across."

Abstract
This paper describes how Lyndon Johnson sent the U.S.S. Pueblo to be captured in order to open communications with the Chinese. This was necessary to prevent Chinese intervention against the American counter-attack after the Tet Offensive in Vietnam.
From the paper:
"In late 1967, US forces were surging in Vietnam. As part of a series of victories the Americans captured large caches of weapons at villages like Con Thien, Loc Ninh, and Dak To. Combined with other intelligence measures, the US determined the North Vietnamese were preparing for a major offensive, which would eventually materialize as the Tet Offensive in the beginning of 1968. Lyndon Johnson, politically desperate for a major victory in Vietnam, began plans to counter-attack after Tet, including an invasion into North Vietnam."
