  • Thesis Rapid Ascent: Rocky Mountain National Park In
    THESIS RAPID ASCENT: ROCKY MOUNTAIN NATIONAL PARK IN THE GREAT ACCELERATION, 1945-PRESENT Submitted by Mark Boxell Department of History In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Master of Arts Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Summer 2016 Master’s Committee: Advisor: Mark Fiege Ben Bobowski Adrian Howkins John Lindenbaum Jared Orsi Copyright by Mark Boxell 2016 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT RAPID ASCENT: ROCKY MOUNTAIN NATIONAL PARK IN THE GREAT ACCELERATION, 1945-PRESENT After the Second World War’s conclusion, Rocky Mountain National Park (RMNP) experienced a massive rise in visitation. Mobilized by an affluent economy and a growing, auto- centric infrastructure, Americans rushed to RMNP in droves, setting off new concerns over the need for infrastructure improvements in the park. National parks across the country experienced similar explosions in visitation, inspiring utilities- and road-building campaigns throughout the park units administered by the National Park Service. The quasi-urbanization of parks like RMNP implicated the United States’ public lands in a process of global change, whereby wartime technologies, cheap fossil fuels, and a culture of techno-optimism—epitomized by the Mission 66 development program—helped foster a “Great Acceleration” of human alterations of Earth’s natural systems. This transformation culminated in worldwide turns toward mass-urbanization, industrial agriculture, and globalized markets. The Great Acceleration, part of the Anthropocene— a new geologic epoch we have likely entered, which proposes that humans have become a force of geologic change—is used as a conceptual tool for understanding the connections between local and global changes which shaped the park after World War II.

  • First District Court of Appeal Mourns Passing of Former Chief Judge
    First District Court of Appeal Mourns Passing of the Honorable Anne Cawthon Booth The First District Court of Appeal mourns the loss of former First District Court of Appeal Chief Judge Anne Cawthon Booth, who passed away peacefully at her home in Tallahassee on June 14, 2021, at the age of 87. Judge Booth was appointed to the First District Court of Appeal by Governor Reubin Askew in 1978 and served there until her retirement in 2005. From 1985–1987, she served as Chief Judge. Judge Booth was the first woman to be appointed to an appellate court in Florida, and the first woman to serve as Chief Judge. Judge Booth earned her law degree with high honors from the University of Florida, where she graduated at the top of her class and was inducted into the Order of the Coif. She was the only female student in her class. Following graduation, she clerked for Chief Justice Joseph A. Boyd Jr. and Justice Millard Caldwell of the Florida Supreme Court. She then practiced as a civil litigator with her husband, Edgar Charles Booth, before being appointed to the First District Court of Appeal. “With a brilliant legal mind and indomitable spirit, Judge Booth was a trailblazer for women in law,” said Chief Judge Stephanie Ray. “We honor her commitment to justice and her extraordinary life and legacy.” The Court extends its deepest sympathy and condolences to Judge Booth’s family and friends. For more information on Judge Booth’s remarkable life, view her obituary here. .

  • District III News Special Edition Layout 1
    From the Desk of Commissioner Bobby B. DuBose DISTRICT III NEWS SPECIAL EDITION JUNE 2012 Dear District III, The City of Fort Lauderdale has lost a trailblazing pioneer in the person of Dr. Calvin H. Shirley. This year Dr. Shirley was celebrated as the City of Fort Lauderdale’s Honored Founder and was the special guest at the annual Walk Through History event that commemorated the medical history in the Northwest. Calvin H. Shirley was in a league that many aspire to. He walked tall and humbly yet left a mark that is undeniably etched in the framework and foundation of Fort Lauderdale. Dr. Calvin Hylton Shirley graduated from Booker T. Washington High School at the age of sixteen in Pensacola, Florida and matriculated at Florida A & M Uni- versity in Tallahassee, Florida where he obtained his pre-medical education ma- joring in Biology and a double minor in Chemistry and Education. During these undergraduate years, he played trumpet in the College Marching Band, Sym- phonic, Jazz and Dance Orchestras. This afforded him a full music scholarship which helped to pay his tuition and living expenses. Drafted into the United States Navy after the completion of his college career and during World War II, Dr. Shirley served his country as a Hospital Corpsman in the Asiatic Pacific Theater of War. Following an Honorable Discharge from the Navy, Dr. Shirley enrolled in the Boston College of Physicians & Surgeons in Boston, Massachusetts graduating Summa Cum Laude. He completed his Internship and Residency in Obstetrics & Gynecology at Boston City Hospital and returned to Florida in 1949 to commence his medical practice.

Contact Information Reference Department Archives of American Art Smithsonian Institution Washington. D.C. 20560 www.aaa.si.edu/askus Transcript Interview HF: HENRY SAYLES FRANCIS RB: ROBERT BROWN RB: This is an interview with Henry Sayles Francis, in Walpole, New Hampshire, March 28, 1974, Robert Brown the interviewer. I'd like, if you could, to perhaps discuss something of your childhood in Boston. The various things we've already talked about, but if we could discuss them further now? HF: Well, I was born, as I told you, here at 56 Commonwealth Avenue, which was the house which my Uncle Henry Sayles, my great uncle, built for his mother and moved from Tremont Street in 1972. And I notice in the wonderful catalogue which the Museum of Fine Arts put out some years ago on the Back Bay, that there is a picture which shows this particular area where the houses are in block form before it was all filled in and everything, in which that group of houses happens to be in the picture. RB: As you knew it though, they were already . ? HF: Oh, of course, it was all filled. Oh, yes. Oh, heavens yes, it was all very much filled. But I can remember the days when they used to have the horses and buggies, would come down either side of Commonwealth Avenue, and I remember a runaway once going round a corner, and you could see sparks coming from the curbing as the thing went around.

  • Revising Judicial Application of the Single Subject Rule to Initiative Petitions
    \\jciprod01\productn\N\NYS\66-4\NYS404.txt unknown Seq: 1 22-APR-11 12:21 REVISING JUDICIAL APPLICATION OF THE SINGLE SUBJECT RULE TO INITIATIVE PETITIONS FLORIN V. IVAN* The idea that an impartial branch of government protects the rule of law is appealing to many—so much so that the requirement of judicial impartiality is enshrined in our federal Constitution.1 While both federal and state courts may be vulnerable to accusa- tions of judicial activism tainted by partisan politics,2 state courts are seen as more susceptible to political pressure.3 Few situations are as sensitive as cases in which state courts invalidate action by political branches.4 It stands to reason, then, that when state courts invalidate citizen-initiated ballot petitions in states that recognize the people’s right to legislate directly, the judiciary would be highly susceptible to charges of partisanism. The charges might intensify when amorphous doctrines such as the single subject rule and equally amorphous jurisprudence combine to strike down popular initiatives before they appear on the ballot. This Note answers critics and supporters of the single subject rule by exploring in depth the single subject jurisprudence in one state: Colorado. The Note examines the case law through the lens of four different hypotheses and tries to determine whether initia- * J.D., New York University School of Law. Law clerk to the Hon. David G.
