Three years ago, Ellie Brower's daughter went missing somewhere in the heart of Virginia. Today, Ellie receives a mysterious text message that leads her to believe her daughter might still be alive. She follows this rabbit hole to the coastal town of Lacuna's Point. But there's something wrong with this place. The town's only constable is zero help and downright hostile. There's a beloved mayor who presides over town affairs, but no one has ever seen his face. Meanwhile, an enormous clock tower holds something sinister behind its cyclopean eye of time. As Ellie unravels the mystery of her missing daughter, the town begins to change. Its geography. Its spirit. Slowly, this homely paradise transforms into a nightmarish dreamworld. And not just the town; the people themselves are slowly evolving into something...else.

Bachelorarbeit aus dem Jahr 2020 im Fachbereich BWL - Offline-Marketing und Online-Marketing, Note: 2,4, BSP Business School Berlin (ehem. Potsdam), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Die Arbeit befasst sich mit dem Thema Nachhaltigkeitsmarketing mit Schwerpunkt auf der deutschen Ernährungsindustrie. Im theoretischen Teil der Arbeit werden grundlegende, thematische Begriffe wie Marketing, Nachhaltigkeit und CSR definiert, sowie das theoretische Modell Marketing-Mix und das vielschichtige Nachhaltigkeitsmarketing ausführlich diskutiert.Darüber hinaus werden verschiedene Akteure und Nachhaltigkeitslabels auf dem deutschen Lebensmittelmarkt untersucht und die LOHAS-Zielgruppe mit Hilfe der durchgeführten Experteninterviews näher beleuchtet. Im zweiten, praxisnahen Teil der Arbeit werden drei namhafte Unternehmen aus dem FMCG-Bereich und ihre Nachhaltigkeitsstrategien im Detail auf ihren Praxisbezug hin untersucht, so dass letztlich die Frage, wie der Marketing-Mix nachhaltiger gestaltet werden kann, fundiert beantwortet werden kann. Grundlegende Erkenntnisse dieses vorwiegend literarischen Werkes sind, dass jeder Aspekt des Marketing-Mix individuell analysiert und nach Unternehmensrichtlinien auf Nachhaltigkeit umgestaltet werden muss, wenn die erfolgreiche Umsetzung einer Nachhaltigkeitsstrategie das Ziel sein soll. Ein anderer Ansatz, die so genannte Gemeinwohlökonomie, ist auf Dauer nicht auszuschließen, erfordert aber eine grundlegende Umgestaltung unseres globalen Wirtschaftssystems zum Wohle von Mensch und Umwelt.

Seminar paper from the year 2020 in the subject Business economics - Trade and Distribution, grade: 1,3, BSP Business School Berlin (form. Potsdam), language: English, abstract: Climate change is a global problem. According to the majority opinion of renowned experts, humans are to blame for this development. In recent years, industrialization has caused the levels of greenhouse gases in the earth's atmosphere to rise rapidly. The consequences are clearly noticeable in our daily lives, such as rising average temperatures or more frequent extreme weather events.Recent events, such as the diesel scandal, have fueled discussions about the CO2 tax as a more effective measure to deal with climate change. In addition, the diesel scandal showed how the environment is being negligently treated in favor of profit. This has led me to critically analyze emissions trading as one of the current environmental policy measures to reduce greenhouse gases. This is because it is seen in the EU as a particularly powerful tool for achieving climate targets. However, it often also serves as a basis for argumentation against further measures for the environment by companies. The question that occurs to me is what opportunities and risks could arise for Germany from emissions trading.In order to be able to answer this question, it is first necessary to give an initial overview of the topic. It will be explained which functions emissions trading should fulfill and what differences there are between global emissions trading and that in the EU. I then present the scientific findings on emissions and emissions trading to date. Based on the research and the knowledge gained from it, I am able to answer the key question. Finally, my conclusion follows.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2020 im Fachbereich BWL - Unternehmensführung, Management, Organisation, Note: 1,3, BSP Business School Berlin (ehem. Potsdam), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Die Arbeit versucht zu beantworten, ob Dropshipping als eine Form des E-Commerce mit Zukunftsperspektiven zu betrachten ist. Hierfür geht der Autor auf das Konzept, die Grundidee sowie die Vor- und Nachteile von Dropshipping ein. Des Weiteren wird die Rolle von Shopify analysiert. Im Anschluss werden anhand eines exemplarischen Unternehmens die Unterschiede zwischen Dropshipping und anderen Formen des E-Commerce herausgearbeitet.Die Technologie hinterlässt in fast allen Bereichen unserer heutigen Gesellschaft ihre Spuren. Besonders im Handel gab es in den vergangenen Jahrzehnten große Veränderungen. Die Notwendigkeit der direkten Interaktion zwischen Käufer und Anbieter ist mit dem Aufkommen des elektronischen Handels und der Entwicklung von Plattformen für elektronische Märkte nahezu gänzlich überflüssig geworden.Um die Aufmerksamkeit der Käufer zu gewinnen, wird das Kaufverhalten durch Datenverarbeitungsalgorithmen analysiert. Dabei werden die für die Geschäftsstrategie des Unternehmens erforderlichen Geschäftsinformationen herausgefiltert. Mit Big Data und Data-Mining wird das Profil eines jeden Konsumenten direkt in die Plattform projiziert und so die notwendigen Informationen zur Vorhersage des Verhaltens bei zukünftigen Plattformbesuchen übermittelt. Diese Analysetechniken macht sich auch das Dropshipping zunutze. Durch Dropshipping können Unternehmer mit geringem Eigenkapital und wenig Vorbereitungszeit bereits ein eigenes Business aufbauen.

Whether shooting portraits or products, skillful lighting can be the difference between a bland snapshot and a stunning, well-defined image. Capturing the ideal photograph requires many technical factors to work in tandem, the most fundamental of which is lighting. While we may take it for granted that light is required to create a photograph, light by itself usually does not produce the style, energy, emotion or feeling that makes a photograph exceptional. It is the way the light has been modified and shaped that gives the photographer the ability to create an image that communicates their feeling about the subject. Its necessary to understand how light works in order to know how to modify it in the most desirous way.Beginning with simplified light concepts, Rand delves into the basics of light. Lights natural tendency is to go off in all directions. To give a better understanding of how to control the light that you use in your photographs, Rand guides the reader through a series of discussions defining the light itself, the surfaces that will interact with the light in the photographs, the look of light that we wish to create and the tools, modifiers and shapers that are commonly available for use. Whether you want to add contrast with highlights and shadows or use the softness of diffuse light to add volume to the subject, the fundamentals of these concepts are covered here. Images, diagrams and descriptions are used to illustrate the manners in which light can be modified.From there, the book moves onto the main tools of light modification. Rand discusses the primary functions of each tool and defines the issues of the lights characteristics after the modification. Techniques are presented for using reflectors, spotlights, softboxes, diffusers, umbrellas, barndoors, gels, scrims, shoots and more. Each chapter is highly illustrated with images of the tools being discussed, diagrams, and examples for the use of these tools in both commercial and portrait photography. Variations in control and problems that may occur with specific modifiers are discussed as well.The goal of this book is to show the effect of modifiers and shapers on the quality of light rather than to discuss the merits of a particular light source. By focusing on the methods to shape light, the photographer is open to improvise in scenarios where they may not have control over the light source. Whether you shoot commercial or portrait photography, this book provides you with the basis for not only successfully, but elegantly shaping light to create your desired result.
