Digital Originality, Edward Lee
Digital Originality, Edward Lee
Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment & Technology Law
This Article examines the doctrine of originality in U.S. copyright law and proposes a reconfigured, three-part test that can better analyze issues of first impression involving works created with new digital technologies. The proposed test, encapsulated by the concept of digital originality, provides much needed guidance to courts to address the increasing complexities of digital creations in the twenty-first century.
Curbing Copyblight, John Tehranian
Curbing Copyblight, John Tehranian
Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment & Technology Law
This Article identifies and analyzes the growing problem of "copyblight" the use of overreaching claims by putative copyright holders to ownership of public domain works, and, more broadly, to exclusive rights which they do not hold in copyrighted works. Despite the fact that copyblight circumscribes political and social discourse, stifles creativity, and constricts the dissemination of information, present law provides few, if any, disincentives against the practice. Building on the groundbreaking work of Paul Heald and Jason Mazzone, this Article advances three proposals to temper the problems of overreach in order to restore a needed balance in our copyright system: …
Patents 101: Patentable Subject Matter And Separation Of Powers, Max S. Oppenheimer
Patents 101: Patentable Subject Matter And Separation Of Powers, Max S. Oppenheimer
Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment & Technology Law
The definition of statutory subject matter lies at the heart of the patent system. It is the reflection of Congress's policy decision as to what types of inventions one may patent. While the congressional definition of statutory subject matter (in what is now 35 U.S.C. § 101) has remained fundamentally constant since 1790, the Supreme Court has reinterpreted and redefined statutory subject matter several times, leaving lower courts with the frustrating task of trying to develop a coherent jurisprudence against a changing landscape. This inconstancy has introduced uncertainty for inventors who are trying to make the fundamental decision of whether …
Intercepting Licensing Rights: Why College Athletes Need A Federal Right Of Publicity, Talor Bearman
Intercepting Licensing Rights: Why College Athletes Need A Federal Right Of Publicity, Talor Bearman
Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment & Technology Law
The right of publicity is the right of an individual to control the commercial use of her name, image, likeness, or other identifiable aspects of her persona. In the United States, the right of publicity is a state-law right, not federal, and recognition of the right varies significantly from state to state. The lack of uniformity among states poses significant problems for individuals who are recognizable throughout the United States. Specifically, student athletes, who would lose the ability to play college athletics if they were reimbursed for the use of their images, are among the individuals most at risk of …

New Media And Ethno-Politics In The Guinean Diaspora, Mohamed S. Camara
New Media And Ethno-Politics In The Guinean Diaspora, Mohamed S. Camara
Humanities & Communication - Daytona Beach
This paper discusses the resurgence of ethno-politics in Guinea in conjunction with the reintroduction of multiparty politics after three decades of single-party and military rule, and the trend’s multilayered repercussion into the Guinean Diaspora of North America. It further examines the principal ways in which ethno-regionalist organisations populating that Diaspora use and misuse new media outlets (web sites,web radio stations, and blogs) in order to promote the political agenda of their respective ethno-political elites. The article scrutinises the deficit of professionalism that characterises the performance of most of those publishing on such web sites and broadcasting on such stations and …
The Center Of A Homesteading Community In Northwest Montana: Archaeological Investigations On The Polebridge Schoolhouse, Alexander J. Kroll
The Center Of A Homesteading Community In Northwest Montana: Archaeological Investigations On The Polebridge Schoolhouse, Alexander J. Kroll
Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers
In the summer of 2010, I excavated the remnants of a historic one-roomed schoolhouse near Polebridge, Montana, just outside of Glacier National Park. The schoolhouse’s recovered artifacts represent a lively community of homesteaders residing in the North Fork Valley of the Flathead River during the early 20th century. 3,704 individual artifacts in the form of metal, glass, ceramic and faunal remains, tell of life during this time period. The research goals of this thesis have three objectives: 1) the historical record often depicts schoolhouses as serving as public space for the community, the archaeological record can be used to corroborate …
The Effect Of Photocycle On Self-Control In Betta Splendens, Kathryn Gwen Lamp
The Effect Of Photocycle On Self-Control In Betta Splendens, Kathryn Gwen Lamp
Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers
The present study examined the effect of varying light cycles on self-control in Siamese fighting fish (Betta splendens). The subjects included 16 male Betta splendens, and instrumental choice trials were run. A subject began each trial in the start box and, when a guillotine divider door was lifted, entered one side of a divided terminus. The checkerboard side of the choice door represented either the smaller, more immediate choice (SS) or the larger, more delayed choice (LL). When the subject had entered one side of the goal box, the guillotine divider door was lowered and the subject was given food …
History, Ecology And Restoration Potential Of Salmonid Fishes In The Umpqua River, Oregon, Kelly Crispen Coates
History, Ecology And Restoration Potential Of Salmonid Fishes In The Umpqua River, Oregon, Kelly Crispen Coates
Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers
Salmonid populations are decreasing across their historic range in the Pacific Northwest, and throughout the lower 48 states. This study incorporates a retrospective analysis of historical literature, traditional ecological knowledge as well as current ecology to determine historic salmonid abundance in the Umpqua River, Oregon and current conditions for salmonids in the context of wild salmonid restoration. Results for the Umpqua were compared to other Pacific Rim Rivers. The history of the basin and impacts to the river including settlement, agriculture, logging, mining, dam building, hatchery supplementation and non-native species introduction were reviewed. Decreases in runs were compared to impacts …

A Structural History Of The Garnet Stock And Its Relationship To Deformation Along The Lewis And Clark Line, Western Montana, Zackary Steven Wall
A Structural History Of The Garnet Stock And Its Relationship To Deformation Along The Lewis And Clark Line, Western Montana, Zackary Steven Wall
Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers
The Lewis and Clark line experienced sinistral transpressive shear during the Late Cretaceous-late Paleocene Laramide orogeny along the boundary between the massive Lewis-Eldorado-Hoadley thrust slab to the NE and the Sapphire and Lombard thrust slabs to the SW. The transpression extruded SE trending, en echelon flower structures along a 40 km-wide shear zone. Late Cretaceous satellite stocks of the Boulder batholith intruded the shear zone and interfered with folding and faulting. One of these, the 83-Ma Garnet stock, invaded a narrow NE-trending fracture zone that straddled the shear zone at deeper levels in the Proterozoic Belt Supergroup but mushroomed in …
Two Approaches To Tailoring Treatment For Cultural Minority Adolescents, Sarah W. Feldstein Ewing, Alisha M. Wray, Hilary K. Mead, Sue K. Adams
Two Approaches To Tailoring Treatment For Cultural Minority Adolescents, Sarah W. Feldstein Ewing, Alisha M. Wray, Hilary K. Mead, Sue K. Adams
Human Development and Family Science Faculty Publications
At this time, compared with mainstream (Caucasian) youth, cultural minority adolescents experience more severe substance-related consequences and are less likely to receive treatment. Although several empirically supported interventions (ESIs), such as motivational interviewing (MI), have been evaluated with mainstream adolescents, fewer published studies have investigated the fit and efficacy of these interventions with cultural minority adolescents. In addition, many empirical evaluations of ESIs have not explicitly attended to issues of culture, race, and socioeconomic background in their analyses. As a result, there is some question about the external validity of ESIs, particularly in disadvantaged cultural minority populations. This review seeks …

Teaching Statistical Research Methods To Graduate Students: Lessons Learned From Three Different Degree Programs, Ozgur Ekmekci, Adrienne Hancock, Susan S. Swayze
Teaching Statistical Research Methods To Graduate Students: Lessons Learned From Three Different Degree Programs, Ozgur Ekmekci, Adrienne Hancock, Susan S. Swayze
Clinical Research and Leadership Faculty Publications
This paper examines the challenge of teaching statistical research methods in three master’s degree programs at a private university based in Washington, DC. We, as three professors teaching at this university, discuss the way we employ innovative approaches to deal with this challenge. We ground our discussion within the theoretical framework of problem-based learning and adult learning principles. We provide brief descriptions of our research methods courses to demonstrate how an instructor can facilitate learning of new knowledge and applications in a content area often considered intimidating by students. We also highlight similarities across the three different courses we teach …
