Abstract:
ABSTRACT To examine the mode of JC virus (JCV) transmission, we collected urine samples from second- and third-generation Japanese-Americans in Los Angeles, Calif., whose parents and grandparents were all Japanese. From the urine samples of these Japanese-Americans, we mainly detected two subtypes (CY and MY) of JCV that are predominantly found among native Japanese. This finding provides support for the hypothesis that JCV is transmitted mainly within the family through long-term cohabitation.

Abstract:
In Los Angeles, the influence of Hollywood and the film industry, combined with a non-stop barrage of media images, has blurred the line between the real and imaged. The literature reveals a city exploding with cultural, racial and social differences, making Los Angeles a confusing and alienating place. The literature of Los Angeles reflects the changing face of the city. Los Angeles was always a city with a promising future, economic booms and optimism seemed to suggest that here was a place where the American Dream really could come true. Thousands travelled west in search of sunshine, oranges and a life that formerly, they could only dream of having. Yet, the literature of Los Angeles has highlighted the city's actual history together with a realization of undercurrents of violence, prejudice, depression and shattered dreams. The past, present and future is used to reveal a city that is in stark opposition to the Los Angeles, waves of immigrants came to find. This thesis explores the idea of the dreamer coming west to Los Angeles within the literature and the variety of ways in the travellers' romantic notions of Los Angeles as a city of promise, is betrayed, leaving a desperate people in its wake. The literature shows that beneath the shiny surface of a city founded on sunshine and prosperity, corruption reached all levels of society and the 'mean streets' abound. Later, influenced by an overwhelming feeling of powerlessness caused by Post-war nuclear depression, McCarthyism, loss of identity, and living in a city fragmented by racial tension and an ever growing gap between the very rich and the very poor, the literature of Los Angeles reflects not only the fears of that city, but of American society as a whole. The collision of technology, rapid progression and population explosion turned Los Angeles into a disconnected city, where the real and imagined merge in a cityscape that demonstrates a conflicting combination of historical replication, original design and movie-set inspiration. Nothing is ever what it appears to be in Los Angeles.

Abstract:
Les violences urbaines de 1992 mettent en évidence la complexité grandissante des relations raciales en Amérique. Elles imposent une relecture des rapports bipolaires qui focalisent l'attention des médias et du pouvoir politique de l'époque. La présente thèse vise à étudier l'évolution de la communauté coréenne de Los Angeles et à examiner les facteurs qui ont contribué à l'émergence des hostilités entre les entrepreneurs coréens et les Noirs américains. Après avoir retracé les débuts de l'immigration coréenne sur les îles Hawaii, l'analyse se déploie à exploiter la dimension économique de la présence coréenne pour démontrer sa forte contribution dans la montée des conflits avec les résidents noirs. Elle se termine par l'interrogation sur l'impact des émeutes sur l'avenir de la communauté coréenne<br>The urban riots of 1992 bring to the fore the growing complexity of racial relations in America. They cast à new light on the bipolar relations that are at the center of the attention of the media and the political leaders of the time. The aim of this thesis is to study the evolution of the Korean community in L. A. And to examine the factors that have contributed to the emergence of hostilities between Korean entrepreneurs and African-Americans. After having traced the beginnings of the Korean immigration on the Hawaii islands the analysis proceeds to explore the economic dimension of the Korean presence in the U. S. In order to prove its inevitable contribution to the escalation of conflicts with African Americans. It ends with the treatment of the impact of the riots on the Korean community

Abstract:
Depuis quelques années de nouveaux vocables sont inventés par les urbanistes pour décrire au mieux la ville en mutation. L'un deux est l'adjectif "post-moderne" qui fait référence à une nouvelle ère dans laquelle serait entrée la ville. Pour de nombreux urbanistes et géographes urbains, la ville qui caractérise le mieux la post-modernité est Los Angeles et serait à l'instar de Chicago dans les années 20, un nouveau laboratoire, un nouveau prototype de la ville américaine. Alors que l'on parle souvent d'américanisation et parfois même de los angélisation des villes américaines ou européennes pour mettre en avant leur étalement urbain ainsi que l'émergence de nouveaux centres, on observe au contraire à Los Angeles, le retour d'un urbanisme à l'"Européenne". Cette nouvelle tendance est représentée par le mouvement du New urbanism qui participe actuellement à la construction de Playa Vista. Ce nouveau quartier situé à l'ouest de la ville répond à des critères bien particuliers dont : la mixité fonctionnelle de l'espace qui intègre le piéton et une densité du bâti supérieure au reste de la ville. Cette étude a donc pour objectif de voir pourquoi et comment ce nouveau quartier s'intègre au paysage urbain los angelais avec lequel il semble être en totale contradiction<br>In recent years, planners have coined new words to describe the changing city in the best possible way. One of them is the adjective "postmodern" which refers to a new era which the city is supposed to have entered. For many planners and urban geographers, the city which best illustrates postmodernity is Los Angeles. Just like Chicago in the twenties, it is said to be a laboratory and a new prototype of American city. Whilst the "Americanisation" and "los angelisation" of American and European cities is often mentioned, Los Angels shows evidence of a return to European types of planning. This trend is reflected in the New Urbanism movement, which is currently involved in the Playa Vista development. This new area, located to the West of the city, is based on a specific set of criteria, including mixed-use, the integration of pedestrians and a higher density than that of the rest of the city. The aim of this thesis is to ask the following questions : how and why does this new area blend into Los Angeles’cityscape when it in fact appears to be a variance with it

Abstract:
Despite the sharp drop in transit ridership throughout the USA that began in March 2020, two different uses of land near transit stations continue to be implemented in the United States to promote ridership. Since 2010, transit agencies have given priority to multi-family residential construction referred to as transit oriented development (TOD), with an emphasis on housing affordability. In second place for urban planners but popular with suburban commuters is free or inexpensive parking near rail or bus transit centers, known as park-and-ride (PnR). Sometimes, TOD and PnR are combined in the same development. Public policy seeks to gain high community value from both of these land uses, and there is public interest in understanding the circumstances and locations where one of these two uses should be emphasized over the other. Multiple justifications for each are offered in the professional literature and reviewed in this report. Fundamental to the strategic decision making necessary to allocate public resources toward one use or the other is a determination of the degree to which each approach generates transit ridership. In the research reported here, econometric analysis of GIS data for transit stops, PnR locations, and residential density was employed to measure their influence on transit boardings for samples of transit stops at the main transit agencies in Seattle, Los Angeles, and San José. Results from all three cities indicate that adding 100 parking spaces close to a transit stop has a larger marginal impact than adding 100 housing units. Previous academic research estimating the higher ridership generation per floor area of PnR compared to multi-family TOD housing makes this show of strength for parking an expected finding. At the same time, this report reviews several common public policy justifications for TOD as a preferred land development emphasis near transit stations, such as revenue generation for the transit agency and providing a location for below-market affordable housing where occupants do not need to have a car. If increasing ridership is important for a transit agency, then parking for customers who want to drive to a station is an important option. There may also be additional benefits for park-and-ride in responding to the ongoing pandemic.
