What This Comedian Said Will Shock You
The hilarious and controversial host of HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher has written his funniest, most opinionated, and most necessary book ever—a brilliantly astute and acerbically funny vivisection of American life, politics, and culture. Some of the smartest commentary about what’s happening in America is coming from a comedian—this comedian being Bill Maher. If you want to understand what’s wrong with this country, it turns out that one of the best informed and most thought-provoking analysts is this very funny pothead. The book was inspired by the “editorial” Bill delivers at the end of each episode of Real Time. These editorials are direct-to-camera sermons about culture,...
The Best Defense?
The Stanford Task Force Report on Preventive Force, by Abraham D. Sofaer, offers a practical guide to identifying and considering the issues relevant to preventive uses of force. The report seeks to ensure that such uses of force, if undertaken, will advance national and international security and the purposes of the United Nations Charter. The report examines the legitimacy, dangers, and limitations of preventive force and concludes by encouraging states and decision makers to undertake a systematic appraisal of the merits of any threat or use of preventive force based, not only on legal standards, which have proved an ineffective guide, but also on standards related to legitimacy, such as the consistency of proposed actions with the U.N. Charter and established norms of conduct.
Using a Physical Metaphor to Scale Up Communication in Virtual Worlds
This dissertation argues that application-level messaging in virtual worlds must have five properties to enable scalability while avoiding the undesirable limitations of existing systems: recipient selection, minimum quality of service, graceful degradation, fine-grained multiplexing and high utilization. To address these issues, the Sirikata system architecture, a new virtual world back-end system, was developed that achieves these five properties. Sirikata's key insight is to leverage the geometric nature of virtual worlds by applying a physical metaphor to communication. Object communication follows an inverse square law, behaving similarly to point-source radio transmitters and receivers...

The Performative Representations of Masculinity in Quentin Tarantino's Cinema
In this book, Justin Russell Greene examines how Quentin Tarantino uses his auteur identity to further cement the masculine tropes of Hollywood – and ultimately, society – through language, visual aesthetics, and performative representations of masculinity in his films and media appearances. Greene posits that the careful crafting of his auteur persona allows Tarantino to project a consistent version of what it means to be a writer-director-artist, and that through his interview and speeches, he reveals the deeper intensions behind the representations his characters present in his films. However, although he is valorized by audiences, media personalities, and peers as an artistic genius,...
