  • First-Run Smoking Presentations in U.S. Movies 1999-2006
    First-Run Smoking Presentations in U.S. Movies 1999-2006 Jonathan R. Polansky Stanton Glantz, PhD CENTER FOR TOBAccO CONTROL RESEARCH AND EDUCATION UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, SAN FRANCISCO SAN FRANCISCO, CA 94143 April 2007 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Smoking among American adults fell by half between 1950 and 2002, yet smoking on U.S. movie screens reached historic heights in 2002, topping levels observed a half century earlier.1 Tobacco’s comeback in movies has serious public health implications, because smoking on screen stimulates adolescents to start smoking,2,3 accounting for an estimated 52% of adolescent smoking initiation. Equally important, researchers have observed a dose-response relationship between teens’ exposure to on-screen smoking and smoking initiation: the greater teens’ exposure to smoking in movies, the more likely they are to start smoking. Conversely, if their exposure to smoking in movies were reduced, proportionately fewer teens would likely start smoking. To track smoking trends at the movies, previous analyses have studied the U.S. motion picture industry’s top-grossing films with the heaviest advertising support, deepest audience penetration, and highest box office earnings.4,5 This report is unique in examining the U.S. movie industry’s total output, and also in identifying smoking movies, tobacco incidents, and tobacco impressions with the companies that produced and/or distributed the films — and with their parent corporations, which claim responsibility for tobacco content choices. Examining Hollywood’s product line-up, before and after the public voted at the box office, sheds light on individual studios’ content decisions and industry-wide production patterns amenable to policy reform.

  • Adam Sandler: Mentor Of
    ADAM SANDLER: MENTOR OF MIDDLE-CLASS MASCULINITY AND MANHOOD A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of California State University, Stanislaus In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in History By Kathleen Boone Chapman April 2014 CERTIFICATION OF APPROVAL ADAM SANDLER: MENTOR OF MASCULINITY AND FATHERHOOD by Kathleen Boone Chapman Signed Certification of Approval Page is on file with the University Library Dr. Bret E. Carroll Date Professor of History Dr. Samuel Regalado Date Professor of History Dr. Marcy Rose Chvasta Date Professor of Communications © 2014 Kathleen Boone Chapman ALL RIGHTS RESERVED DEDICATION I am dedicating this work to my three dear friends: Ronda James, Candace Paulson, and Michele Sniegoski. Ronda’s encouragement and obedience to the Lord gave me what I needed to go back to school with significant health issues and so late in life. Candace, who graduated from Stanford “back in the olden days,” to quote our kids, inspired me to follow my dream and become all God wants me to be. Michele’s long struggle with terminal kidney disease motivated me to keep living in spite of my own health issues. We have laughed and cried together over many years, but all of you have given me strength to carry on. Sorry two of you made it to heaven before I could get this finished. I also want to give credit to my husband of forty years who has been a faithful breadwinner, proof-reader, and a paragon of patience. What more could any woman ask for? He has also put up with me yelling at my computer and cursing Bill Gates – A LOT.

  • Community Guide to Hawai'i Land Conservation
    Community Guide to Hawaiʻi Land Conservation “He aliʻi ka ʻāina; he kauwā ke kanaka.” “The land is a chief; man is its servant.” Mary Kawena Pukui, ʻŌlelo Noʻeau. According to Hawaiian historian Mary Kawena Pukui, “Land has no need for man, but man needs the land and works it for a livelihood.” Introduction / Preface Community members often ask Hawaiian Islands Land Trust, The Trust for Public Land’s Hawaiʻi Program, and other land trusts how they can work with land trusts to save particular lands of natural and cultural significance. This guide is intended to help those community members, and applies to land that: 1) is privately- owned, 2) has significant natural, cultural, or agricultural resources, and 3) is threatened with uses that would harm the resources, such as subdivision and development. Protecting a threatened special place can seem daunting or even impossible. Knowing who to call, what to research, and how to ask for assistance can be confusing. The Trust for Public Land and Hawaiian Islands Land Trust share this guide to clarify the voluntary land conservation process and empower communities across Hawaiʻi in protecting privately owned and threatened lands with cultural, agricultural, and/or ecolog- ical significance. Voluntary land conservation – buying land for public agencies or community organizations or restricting land uses on private property with the cooperation of the landowner — has resolved heated land disputes and created win-win-win solutions that benefit private landowners, our environment, community, and future gen- erations. Where land use is contentious, the process of collaboratively working toward the land’s protection often begins a healing process that can build community resiliency and connections.

The Department of Land and Natural Resources (Department) appreciates the intent of this measure and offers the following for consideration. The Department notes that a common framework is preferable to advancing numerous smaller measures independently, which might result in significant inconsistencies, and thus a confusingly disparate web of local regulations along the State's coastlines. Such a framework is being proposed in Senate Bill 2871 which would create a Makai 0 Ke Kai program to promote community based marine stewardship in collaboration with the Department. The Department notes that while it supports the common framework approach, the Department nonetheless has concerns with the impacts any appropriation will have on the Executive Supplement Budget request.
