The work addresses the following questions in the context of
interglacial climate dynamics: (i) What are the amplitudes of
natural climate variations on timescales of several years to
millennia? (ii) Do abrupt changes in the large-scale circulation of
the Atlantic Ocean occur in interglacials? (iii) Which
biogeochemical feedback mechanisms control the natural limits of
atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases and aerosols? (iv)
Which linkages exist between climate and pre-industrial cultures?
The work is based on an integrated approach in paleoclimate
research, in which all available paleoclimate archives (terrestrial
and marine as well as ice cores) are combined in order to yield a
comprehensive and quantitative analysis of global environmental
variations. Moreover, through a close linkage be-tween paleoclimate
reconstructions and results from Earth-system models detailed
insights into the dynamics of climate variations are gained.
Elwood Lucien is a young West Indian artist who lives within
bicycle-riding distance of The Blue Basin - a site that becomes
both the prophetic beginning of his art and the poetic end to his
youth. After falling in love with the world of art as a child, he
finally garners international attention. It seems, however, that
Elwood is not made for fame; he is disgusted by the false adoration
and insincerity of society people and shies from their
attention.
After years spent alone, wandering from one tumultuous
relationship to the next, Elwood meets Fauna on a beach. She is
beautiful and different from all the women of his past and they
experience an immediate connection. Her family too welcomes Elwood
with open arms and it seems he has finally found what he has been
searching for all his life; a home and a sense of purpose to his
art.
With Fauna at his side, Elwood now begins his new life with
greater promise and resolve. However, the past too arrives through
old lovers and unpaid debts, and he realizes the irony of success
that haunts each great artist: the greater the art, the greater the
price one must pay.

Brian and Jasmine St. James are young and successful with
fulfilling careers and a beautiful home. When their infant daughter
is abducted from their church's nursery, the couple's brief

Bachelorarbeit aus dem Jahr 2011 im Fachbereich Medien /
Kommunikation - Public Relations, Werbung, Marketing, Social Media,
Note: 2,0, Hochschule der Medien Stuttgart, Sprache: Deutsch,
Abstract: 1. Problemstellung Die heutige Medienvielfalt ist grosser
denn je. Konsumenten sind, auf Grund der schnellen technologischen
Entwicklungen, stetig wachsendem Werbedruck ausgesetzt. In
Deutschland streiten sich rund 60 Fernsehsender, 300
Radiostationen, 400 Zeitungen und 600 Zeitschriften um Rezipienten.
Hinzu kommen die neuen Medien und die damit verbundene Werbung.
Somit herrscht ein reges Durcheinander fur den Einzelnen. Eine
Studie des Instituts fur Marketing und Kommunikation" aus dem Jahr
2004 besagt, dass deutsche Konsumenten durchschnittlich uber 6000
Werbekontakte pro Tag wahrnehmen. Allerdings wurden bei dieser
Studie die Werbeeindrucke aus den neuen Medien nicht hinzugezahlt.
Interessant ist die dagegen Auswertung der bewusst erinnerten
Werbekontakte der letzten 24 Stunden; diese befanden sich im
Schnitt bei drei. Der heutige Kunde ist gegen diese immense Flut
von Werbung grosstenteils immun, so dass die Werbeindustrie
zunehmend auf auffallige Kampagnen setzten muss. Beispielsweise
lockt Preis-Aktionismus zunachst viele Konsumenten, schadet aber
auf lange Sicht der Kundenloyalitat und der Markenbindung. Daraus
resultiert ein hart umkampfter Werbemarkt, der zufolge hat, dass
sich Werbetreibende kontinuierlich nach neuen Plattformen umschauen
mussen. Das Internet und das daraus resultierende Web 2.0
verzeichnen daher in den letzten Jahren einen stetigen Zuwachs;
einerseits an Nutzern und andererseits an Werbeinteressenten. Dies
bestatigt der Zuwachs des Werbeinvests des Internets im Jahre 2010
von 43,1% im Vergleich zu der Steigerung der Gesamtwerbeausgaben
von 10,7%. (Vgl.: Kapitel 4.7) Um in der Zukunft erfolgreich werben
zu konnen, mussen Werbeplattformen Moglichkeiten bieten besser auf
ihre Kunden einzugehen. In der Werbung gibt es heute nur noch weni
