Climate change vulnerability and adaptation in the Intermountain Region. Gen. Tech. Rep. RMRS-GTR-375. Fort Collins, CO: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. Part 1. pp. 1–197. Abstract The Intermountain Adaptation Partnership (IAP) identified climate change issues relevant to resource management on Federal lands in Nevada, Utah, southern Idaho, eastern California, and western Wyoming, and developed solutions intended to minimize negative effects of climate change and facilitate transition of diverse ecosystems to a warmer climate. U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service scientists, Federal resource managers, and stakeholders collaborated over a 2-year period to conduct a state-of-science climate change vulnerability assessment and develop adaptation options for Federal lands. The vulnerability assessment emphasized key resource areas— water, fisheries, vegetation and disturbance, wildlife, recreation, infrastructure, cultural heritage, and ecosystem services—regarded as the most important for ecosystems and human communities. The earliest and most profound effects of climate change are expected for water resources, the result of declining snowpacks causing higher peak winter

  • Youtube Marketing: Legality of Sponsorship and Endorsement in Advertising Katrina Wu, University of San Diego
    From the SelectedWorks of Katrina Wu Spring 2016 YouTube Marketing: Legality of Sponsorship and Endorsement in Advertising Katrina Wu, University of San Diego Available at: http://works.bepress.com/katrina_wu/2/ YOUTUBE MARKETING: LEGALITY OF SPONSORSHIP AND ENDORSEMENTS IN ADVERTISING Katrina Wua1 Abstract YouTube endorsement marketing, sometimes referred to as native advertising, is a form of marketing where advertisements are seamlessly incorporated into the video content unlike traditional commercials. This paper categorizes YouTube endorsement marketing into three forms: (1) direct sponsorship where the content creator partners with the sponsor to create videos, (2) affiliated links where the content creator gets a commission resulting from purchases attributable to the content creator, and (3) free product sampling where products are sent to content creators for free to be featured in a video. Examples in each of the three forms of YouTube marketing can be observed across virtually all genres of video, such as beauty/fashion, gaming, culinary, and comedy. There are four major stakeholder interests at play—the YouTube content creators, viewers, YouTube, and the companies—and a close examination upon the interplay of these interests supports this paper’s argument that YouTube marketing is trending and effective but urgently needs transparency. The effectiveness of YouTube marketing is demonstrated through a hypothetical example in the paper involving a cosmetics company providing free product sampling for a YouTube content creator. Calculations in the hypothetical example show impressive return on investment for such marketing maneuver. Companies and YouTube content creators are subject to disclosure requirements under Federal law if the content is an endorsement as defined by the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”).

  • Double Fictions and Double Visions of Japanese Modernity
    Double Fictions and Double Visions of Japanese Modernity by Baryon Tensor Posadas A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of East Asian Studies University of Toronto © Copyright by Baryon Tensor Posadas, 2010 Double Fictions and Double Visions of Japanese Modernity Baryon Tensor Posadas Doctor of Philosophy Department of East Asian Studies University of Toronto 2010 Abstract At roughly the same historical conjuncture when it began to be articulated as a concept marking a return of the repressed within the psychoanalytic theories of Sigmund Freud and Otto Rank, the doppelganger motif became the subject of a veritable explosion of literary attention in 1920s Japan. Several authors – including Akutagawa Ryûnosuke, Edogawa Rampo, Tanizaki Jun’ichirô, and others – repeatedly deployed the doppelganger motif in their fictions against the backdrop of rapid urbanization, imperial expansion, and the restructuring of all aspects of everyday life by a burgeoning commodity culture. Interestingly, as if enacting the very compulsion to repeat embodied by the doppelganger on a historical register as well, a repetition of this proliferation of doppelganger images is apparent in the contemporary conjuncture, in the works of authors like Abe Kôbô, Murakami Haruki, or Shimada Masahiko, as well as in the films of Tsukamoto Shinya or Kurosawa Kiyoshi. To date, much of the previous scholarship on the figure of the doppelganger tends to be preoccupied with the attempt to locate its origins, whether in mythic or psychical terms. In contrast to this concern with fixing the figure to an imagined essence, in my dissertation, I instead place emphasis on the doppelganger’s enactment of repetition itself through an examination at the figure through the prism of the problem of genre, in terms of how it has come to be discursively constituted as a genre itself, as well as its embodiment of the very logic of genre in its play on the positions of identity and difference.

    ARSC Study Guide Film Noir Television COLLECTION PROFILE Considered by some to be a movement and others a genre, the classic period of film noir stretched from 1941 to 1958, bookended by the seminal films The Maltese Falcon and Touch of Evil. Film noir (or literally “black film”), a term coined by the French film critic Nino Frank, was often used to describe films that exhibited low- key black and white cinematography reminiscent of German Expressionism and plots centered around moral ambiguity and a rampant fear of sexuality. Often described and studied strictly in terms of its filmic manifestations, many of the stylistic aesthetics and narrative techniques of noir were prevalent on American television in such programs ranging from crime dramas (“Johnny Staccato,” “The Man With a Camera,” Set in the shadows of New York's mean streets, NBC's noir series “77 Sunset Strip”), and police procedurals “Johnny Staccato” (1959-60) starred John Cassavetes as a jazz- (“Dragnet,” “Naked City,” “The Untouchables”), pianist turned private detective. Cassavetes also directed a to science fiction anthologies (“The Outer number of episodes. Limits,” “The Twilight Zone”). Many of these programs not only exhibit noir style, but showcase the artistic efforts of many film noir luminaries. John Brahm (The Lodger, Guest in the House) directed episodes of both “Alfred Hitchcock Presents” and “The Twilight Zone.” John Cassavetes (Shadows, A Woman Under the Influence) starred and directed in “Johnny Staccato.” Joseph Cotten (The Third Man, Shadow of a Doubt)

This article argues that the series itself is also a kind of double, because it takes advantage of the almost unique situation in which a beloved show is continued after a quarter-century absence to superimpose itself on the new versions of Twin Peaks its fans have fantasized in the interim.

    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH A GASTRONOMICAL TOUR OF TWIN PEAKS: MY JOURNEY OF PIE, COFFEE, AND DONUTS MEGAN LYSOWSKI SPRING 2018 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in English with honors in English Reviewed and approved* by the following: Richard Doyle Professor of English Thesis Supervisor Xiaoye You Professor of English and Asian Studies Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT This is an exploration of my personal experience with the highly esteemed, highly strange television series Twin Peaks through the cultural spread of food presented in the show. It is a work of creative nonfiction that relies on my subjectivity and material from a world outside the series that has been created in its wake. Sometimes referred to as a “cult phenomenon,” I show what that experience is specifically like through a microcosm of food. The main subjects of focus are coffee, pie, and donuts wherein I craft each section through research, analysis, personal journey, and investigative work to a specific aspect of the food group. This gastronomical tour aims to explore the importance of subjectivity in relation to objectivity in a format where academic analysis often removes the true feeling of its subject. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF FIGURES………………………………………………………………………………iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS………………………………………………………………………iv Introduction Twin Peaks: How and Infinitely Why ....................................................................... 1 Chapter 1 Prolific Pie: Cherry Pie and Other Miscreants .............................................................. 3 Faceology of Pie: Scene Analysis of Cooper and Huckleberry Pie .......................................... 10 Chapter 2 Coffee: Black as Midnight, Masculinity, and the True Meaning ...............................
