Abstract
In this paper, the primary aspects of Sun Tzu's military tactics are a major influence on how America as a major western power follows the Art of War. Often, the unconventional aspects of Sun Tzu's philosophy has been a major player in how armies use subtle and less confrontational tactics to overcome the enemy. Also, the use of deception about war is another propagandistic way in which Sun Tzu would agree on the collusion of American media and the government to present a one-dimensional and sensationalized version of the War in Iraq.

Abstract
This paper is an analysis of the Fortune 500 company, Sun Microsysytems. Sun Microsystems was founded in 1982 for the purpose of selling low-cost, high-performance desktop computers running the UNIX operating system. It is a factual overview of the development of the company since establishment. It details Sun Microsystem's operating strategy, it's product and service design, Sun's Process Planning, Analysis, and Re-engineering, and it's management principles. It is an in-depth of the company's performance and it provides insight to their overwhelming success.
From the Paper
"The history of Sun Microsystems' operations strategy can be seen from its first years when Andreas Bechtolsheim, William Joy, Vinod Khosla, and Scott McNealy founded Sun Microsystems, Inc., in 1982 for the purpose of selling low-cost, high-performance desktop computers running the UNIX operating system. These computer workstations found immediate acceptance among engineers, software developers, and scientists who benefited from having dedicated machines, rather than sharing more expensive minicomputers or mainframe computer systems (www.java.sun.com). Unlike its Fortune 500 competitors, Sun Microsystems did not have revenue from other sources to fund development of its computer workstations. This meant that the company needed hundreds of millions of dollars in start-up investments, as well as large purchase agreements, to develop a hardware manufacturing infrastructure and to attract top-flight hardware and software engineers. In 1983 the company signed a multimillion-dollar original equipment manufacturer (OEM) agreement with Computervision Corporation, a designer of computer-aided design and engineering programs. This was the first of many large OEMs for which Sun built computers that sold the workstations under their own labels (Jackson, 1998, p. 119)."

Abstract
Sun Yat Sen's alliance with Soviet and Chinese communists has been attributed by many Western historians to factors such as expediency, but careful study of this period of Chinese history, combined with deeper insights into his character and personality, indicate that his motivations were much more complex. This paper asserts that Sun Yat Sen's activities involving the reorganization of the Kuomintang cannot be explained or understood by attributing them to simple expediency. Rather, the paper argues, that Sun Yat Sen was navigating very deep political and social waters at this time, and set his course in accordance with his belief in China's destiny and his belief in himself as the man who could lead his country to that destiny.

Abstract
This paper answers the question: "Imagine that astronomers discovered a G2 star similar to the sun except that it
showed very little rotation. In what ways might this star be similar to the sun and in what ways might it be different?"
From the Paper
"If astronomers discovered a G star similar to the sun, except with very little rotation, it would be similar to the sun in some ways and different in others. Among the similarities is obviously the fact that both would be stars and as such, each would be a large ball of burning gas in space that can be seen at night as a point of light in the sky. (Pearson Longman) In addition, since both the sun and the star in question..."

Abstract
An analysis of the North's victory during the Civil war that relates the strategies employed by General Grant to the maxims espoused by Sun Tzu in "The Art of War"; Sun Tzu's dictates and the North's winning strategy.
From the Paper
"Military strategists have been operating in Sun Tzu's shadow for millennia. Whether the strategists in a particular conflict drew from the Chinese sage's work directly is almost irrelevant; his theories apply to every conflict from the most basic confrontation between medieval powers, to the most complicated modern scenario. This paper will analyze the North's victory during the American war in order to demonstrate how Sun Tzu's principles were directly related to the North's winning strategy, as outlined in Russel Weigley's seminal book "The American Way of War"."

Abstract
This paper discusses the sun and its effects on human. The paper defines the term 'ultraviolet radiation' and explains how it can cause damage such as sunburn, immune suppression and cancer in humans. The author describes the exposure process and symptoms. The paper acknowledges the plentiful benefits of sunlight, but cautions in closing that moderation is the key when it comes to sun exposure.
From the Paper
"Ultraviolet radiation comes from the sun and is divided into three categories based on wavelength. UVA wavelengths have the longest wavelengths and can reach earth's surface. By reaching the surface, sunburn, eye damage, skin aging, and immune suppression can occur. The second type, UVB wavelengths, can cause the same conditions as UVA, however, blindness and a variety of skin problems can be added to the list. The third type of wavelength is UVC and is usually absorbed by the ozone before reaching earth's surface."

Abstract
This paper examines the nature of the sun, the nature of light and how they are connected. The author points out that the connection lies in nuclear fusion, the process in the core of the sun by which incredible amounts of energy are produced during the fusion of hydrogen into helium. The paper relates that this energy exists across the EM spectrum, some of which is visible light.
From the Paper
"The process by which the sun produces visible light is truly one of the most awe-inspiring processes in the universe and is directly responsible for all life on this planet. Light itself is a form of electromagnetic radiation that the sun produces through the principle of incandescence - essentially because it's very hot (Introduction to light, 2003). But of course, the production of light is a much more complex process than just because it heats up. The process by which the sun produces light is connected to nuclear fusion and Einstein's famous equation, E=mc2."

Abstract
This paper is an analysis of William Faulkner's "That Evening Sun." It discusses the unwillingness of southern Americans (represented by the Compsons) to help anyone that is different than they are. It also discusses the era of racism in Southern history. It also discusses the similarity between Faulkner's two books: "Faulkner in the University" and "That Evening Sun."
From the Paper
"William Faulkner's "That Evening Sun" is a short story published in 1931 in a short story collection by Faulkner called That 13. The story itself is partially about the about many things including: white indifference to black peoples during the "Jim Crowe" era of the south, the terror that one black woman faces alone yet among people, a coming of age for the narrator realizing that the world in which he lives is neglectful, and a multitude of other topics. The plight of almost all the characters in the story revolves around a kind of acceptable bias that black fears are not as worthy of notice or as acceptable as white ones. This short fiction is really a story about the south and its customs and biases in the old school of racism. Though the end is never clearly written in the story, Faulkner is suggesting at the end that there could have been a better end for Nancy if only people had cared enough about a black washerwoman to take her concerns seriously and without regard to skin color or status."

Abstract
This paper examines Ernest Hemingway's novel, "The Sun also Rises," as an anti-war statement. The reviewer describes the novel as one of the major works that defines the "Lost Generation" of post-World War I. The novel showcases the continued casualties of war and implies that no conflict is worth the loss of humanity. The characters are analyzed in terms of what they represent as a result of the war. The reviewer concludes that the miserable state of the characters' lives in "The Sun Also Rises" shows that Hemingway's intention was to present anti-war material.
From the Paper
"The main character of Jake Barnes can be viewed as representative of the Lost Generation. A veteran of war, he has trouble dealing, both psychologically and physically, with what he witnessed and experienced during the war. His impotence reflects not only his physical injury, but also his inability to reconcile his growing feelings of emptiness. He is acutely aware of the moral vacuum that the war has created for his generation, and he is sunk deeply into that world. He has an acute sense of what is happening among the people around him, but he does not spend much time in introspection because of the pain it causes. Though he moves from place to place, he is acutely aware that, "You can't get away from yourself by moving from one place to another." He is trapped between knowing and understanding the problems that the world is facing and that the War has created for his generation, but he is far too close to the problem to do anything about it. His own injury from the War and from the unrequited love he has for Lady Brett keep him deeply mired in the psychological fallout that the First World War has brought on his generation. "

Abstract
This paper looks at the composition of the Sun, and how it produces energy. It examines how nuclear fusion of hydrogen to form helium at the Sun's center generates energy, and looks at the quantities produced.
From the Paper
"The sun is a normal main-sequence G star and it is the largest object in the solar system. It consists of hydrogen and helium and the remaining percent consists of metals. The Sun is a burning sphere of gas which derives its heat from a nuclear furnace at its center."
