It Shouldn’T Be Sexy: Exploring The Intersection Between Staged Intimacy And The Law, Spencer Darling

Denver Sports & Entertainment Law Journal

If your job requires you to passionately embrace your coworker after surviving the seat-riveting climax action of the third act, does that complicate your workplace’s sexual harassment prevention strategy? Most jobs do not require workers to make intentional intimate contact with their coworkers. Yet, in the entertainment industry, some jobs require not just intimate contact with coworkers but selling that contact as authentic. This staged intimacy, like staged violence, carries a risk that simulated conduct can result in real harm.

When produced without precaution, staged intimacy can create working conditions that constitute sexual harassment in violation of Title VII of …

How The States And The Ncaa Are Changing The Landscape Of Collegiate Name, Image, And Likeness Compensation, Carly Sirota

Denver Sports & Entertainment Law Journal

This Comment evaluates the recently enacted laws in California and Colorado which require universities in those states to allow student-athletes to receive compensation for their name, image, or likeness. When California first introduced this legislation, there was intense pushback from many in the intercollegiate community. However, less than a year after the bill was enacted, the NCAA’s Board of Governors has committed to changing their bylaws in compliance with the law. The Comment discusses some legal implications of the law for many student-athletes, especially female student-athletes, and how the NCAA should go beyond pay-to-play law compliance to create an equal …

Emily Staker, Agents Of Change: The Role Of The Nfl Contract Advisor In The 2021 Collective Bargaining Agreement, 23 U. Denv. Sports & Ent. L.J. 119 (2020)., Sophie Edbrooke

Denver Sports & Entertainment Law Journal

This Comment will examine the many ways that courts struggle to balance the right of publicity and the First Amendment. The main issue is that docudramas are an intermediary production between movies and documentaries, and producers are claiming the protections that exist for those two mediums also protect their works. There has been only one Supreme Court case on the right of publicity. Since this ruling, however, lower courts have found that precedent to be too narrow and have decided cases individually. This has enabled courts to try docudrama right of publicity cases with a multitude of tests.

The Right Way To Pay Intercollegiate Student-Athletes: A Legal Risk Analysis, Ian K. Schumaker, Leeann M. Lower-Hoppe

Denver Sports & Entertainment Law Journal

“How should student-athletes get paid?” This is the next big question in the intercollegiate sport industry. While the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) fights relentlessly to protect the amateurism of intercollegiate athletics, public pressure continues to mount for establishing a method of paying student-athletes beyond scholarships and educational expenses. There are two compensation methods frequently discussed by the media, fans and practitioners in the industry: 1) compensating student-athletes through the university, or 2) compensating student-athletes through their name, image and likeness (NIL).

Method I gives rise to legal issues pertaining to Title IX, Fair Labor Standards Act, worker’s compensation, vicarious …

The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine

Improving the reproductive performance of sows plays an important role in the pig industry, and it applies not only to commercial pigs but also to indigenous pigs. In this study, the polymorphisms of three genes, namely estrogen receptor (ESR), prolactin receptor (PRLR), and follicle-stimulating hormone beta subunit (FSHB) in the “I” pig population were investigated, and their associations with reproductive performance were evaluated. Ear tissue samples were collected from 151 fattening pigs and 126 sows across breeding farms in Vietnam for polymorphisms of the ESR, PRLR and FSHB genes. Three genotypes (AA, AB, and BB) were detected at the …

Evaluation Of Serum Microrna-375 Concentration In Dogs With Diabetes Mellitus: A Pilot Study, Hyeongyeong Lee, Dohee Lee, Jayeon Park, Yeon Chae, Byeong-Teck Kang, Taesik Yun, Hakhyun Kim

The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine

Serum microRNAs (miRNAs) serve as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for various diseases. The serum concentration of miRNA-375 (miR-375), which is abundantly expressed in pancreatic islet cells, is increased in dogs with experimentally induced pancreatic injury and naturally occurring acute pancreatitis. However, this has not been reported in dogs with diabetes mellitus (DM). This study aimed to compare the expression of serum cfa-miR-375 between dogs with DM and healthy dogs and examine changes in serum cfa-miR-375 levels after insulin administration in dogs with DM. Twenty dogs with DM and 18 healthy dogs were included. The relative expression of serum cfa-miR-375 using …

Norfolk Flooding And Its Effect On Nutrient And Enterococcus Levels, Malachi R. Stephens

Knowledge and Creativity Expo

Tidal flooding is common in the City of Norfolk, VA due to high rates of sea rise in the region, as well as the region’s subsidence. This has led to increases in flooding at high tide, especially during the spring tide portion of the tidal cycle.  At high tide water from the Elizabeth and Lafayette Rivers can flood the landscape directly or can rise out of storm drains. This floodwater often stays on land for long periods of time and can deliver contaminants back into the rivers. To determine the amounts of nutrients and Enterococcus, a fecal indicator, delivered to …

CHEMISTRY AND CHEMICAL ENGINEERING

In this study, the kinetic characteristics of the nucleophilic substitution (SN2) reaction between piperidine and chloroacetic acid were investigated in real time at 50, 60, and 70 °C using ATR-FTIR spectroscopy. The spectral analysis revealed a gradual decrease in the C–Cl stretching vibration in the 710–730 cm⁻¹ region and a simultaneous increase in absorption bands corresponding to the C–N bond in the 1020–1250 cm⁻¹ region, confirming the consistent progression of the reaction. Analysis of the conversion function X(t) showed values of X = 0.669 at 50 °C, X = 0.826 at 60 °C, and X = 0.970 at 70 °C, …

Classification Of Land Cover In Sentinel-2 Imagery Using Machine Learning Models, Ehsan Ali Al-Zubaidi, Mohammed Ridha Hammoodi, Ahmed Naser Alzurfi

Al-Bahir

Remote sensing data of medium resolution are commonly used to classify land cover, and machine learning (ML) models have taken on a central aspect in the necessary data analysis. Ordinarily, land cover is coded on a pixel basis on the basis of Digital Number (DN) values, which in turn are computed across several spectral bands. This paper is concerned with land cover mapping in Mosul, Iraq, based on satellite images captured by Sentinel-2. Two platforms featuring unsupervised classification algorithms were used, Google Earth Engine and ArcMap, making it possible to use K-means and X-means in Google Earth Engine and ISO …
