University of Western Ontario, 1965 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE in the School of Community and Regional Planning We accept this thesis as conforming to the required standard THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA April, 1970 In presenting this thesis in partial fulfilment of the requirements for an advanced degree at the University of British Columbia, I agree that the Library shall make it freely available for reference and study. I further agree tha permission for extensive copying of this thesis for scholarly purposes may be granted by the Head of my Department or by his representatives. It is understood that copying or publication of this thesis for financial gain shall not be allowed without my written permission. Dougald George MacDonald Department of School of Community and Regional Planning The University of British Columbia Vancouver 8, Canada 20, 1970 i Abstract The purpose of this thesis is to examine the factors which explain the patterns of outdoor recreation that a given population pursues on a given land surface. Patterns of use were understood as (1) the types of activities the population pursued and the frequency with which they pursued them, and (2) the distribution of these activities over a differentiated land surface. Emphasis was placed on designing a methodological framework within which the explanatory value of postulated sets of factors can be examined. The data used to illustrate the methodology was taken from a study of the outdoor recreational use of Galiano Island done by The University of British Columbia School of Community and Regional Planning during the summer of 1969. (1) I made the operational assumption that the observed variation in the types and frequency of outdoor recreation activities pursued by groups of visitors to Galiano Island could be explained by differences in the "internal" characteristics of the groups. Internal characteristics were defined as all factors contributed by the recreationists themselves such as age, sex^ experience, etc., which could influence the way they respond to the landscape. In effect, internal characteristics represent the translative mental processes that mediate between the stimulii the recreationist receives from the landscape and his perceived use of it. I hypothesized that variations in the frequency and types of outdoor recreation activities ii which visitors to Galiano Island pursued could be explained by a selected set of socioeconomic and demographic characteristics of the visitor group. The hypothesis was tested by canonical correla• tion analysis. The results obtained were not significant at the 0.05 level of probability . I argued that the negative results were attributable to the characteristics of the data and that the hypothesis, in a conceptual sense, was not incorrect. (2) The second assumption made was that the areal variation in the recreational use of the land surface, generally and for specific activities, could be explained by variations in the characteristics of the landscape itself. I hypothesized that the number of visits (irrespective of activity) that recreationists paid to lot areas on Galiano Island could be predicted from measures of the accessibility, development, and proximity to the shoreline of the lot. Following this, I hypothesized that the number of visits paid to lot areas for each of three specific activities (going to the beach, camping, hiking) could be predicted from the same set of measurements. These hypotheses were tested by multiple regression analysis. Two of the four analyses produced equations which were significant at the 0.001 level of probability. The first showed that the combined total of visits for all activities could be predicted from measurements of the accessi• bility, development, and proximity to the shoreline of the lot area. The second significant relationship showed that visits paid to lot areas for the purpose of going to the beach could be predicted from the same set of measurements. Both equations, although significant, iii had questionable explanatory value owing to the nature of the data. The sample size was too small to permit adequate testing of the hypotheses. The recent literature and the direction pointed to by the results obtained in this study support the conceptual framework which I have presented. However, the data used were largely in• adequate to test the conceptual basis of the methodologies proposed. I have'suggested throughout the study where improvements for the collection of data can be made. Acknowledgment I wish to thank Dr. H. P. Oberlander for the supervision he offered in data collection during the summer of 1969 and for the permission he granted me to use this data in my thesis. For her patience and help in the conceptual formula• tion of this study, I should like to thank Dr. Nirmala devi Cherukupalle, my supervisor.

Specifically, I have examined the patterns of recreational use of Galiano Island. The material collected in the case study was used only to illustrate the methods I have proposed and to define the research necessary to satisfy these methods. Outdoor recreation involves an interaction between people and the environment. I have defined outdoor recreation as leisure-time activities which are voluntarily pursued on areas of the earth's surface that have not been appreciably altered by human activity. I have termed these "natural areas". More and more space is needed for man's activities. Nearly one million acres of land in the United States alone are paved or otherwise denuded of vegetation each year. Irreversible damage to the quality and productive capacity of biotic communities has been done, more damage is in progress and, unfortunately, more seems likely. Land areas which remain in their natural state are being threatened by "progress". Yet preservation and conservation is necessary for the continuing welfare of man. Unfortunately, the preservationists too infrequently have a strong "economic" case to present. It is difficult to match dollar estimates of land value under industrial or commercial use with weakly 2 defined concepts of recreational benefits and yet emerge the winner. We have no way of quantifying the social value of outdoor recreation in dollar terms. It is extremely difficult to arrive at an operational definition of the recreational requirements of a population. Do people "need" to engage in outdoor recreation? Can the satisfaction of these needs be measured in terms of a reduction of crime rates or a decreased incidence of mental and physical illness? Unfortunately, these questions remain largely unanswered. But we can infer from the behavior of people, both past and present, that outdoor recreation is an important social insti• tution. In the absence of a better index, an examination of the way populations use outdoor environments may provide insight into their requirements. Patterns of outdoor recreational use in various settings have often been documented but only infrequently explained.

This vast country is made up of continental states that lie in the central part of the North American continent, between the 25th parallel north and the 49th parallel north. Two more states, Alaska in the northwest extremity of North America and Hawaii in the Pacific Ocean, are located outside the main part of the United States. One of the crucial features of the natural environment of the United States is the meridional layout of its major geographic regions, which differ in altitude above sea level and landscape.

    JAMES K. POLK: TERRITORIAL EXPANSIONIST AND THE EVOLUTION OF PRESIDENTIAL POWER Chris Blubaugh A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2013 Committee: Dr. Scott C. Martin, Advisor Dr. Edmund J. Danziger © 2013 Chris Blubaugh All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Scott C. Martin, Advisor This thesis argues that through President James K. Polk’s leadership style (micro-managing domestic/foreign issues), his understanding of bureaucracy, and dominating his Cabinet, enabled Polk to achieve what his predecessors could not. Furthermore, Polk’s leadership and administrative style foreshadowed, and perhaps provided a precedent for the modern American presidency. To demonstrate Polk’s leadership style, two areas must be examined. First, explain Polk’s keys to success while in office, in particular his leadership style in relation to his policies. President Polk’s direct involvement in domestic and foreign issues enabled him to achieve his four administrative goals: tariff reduction, creation of an Independent Treasury, settlement of the Oregon Territory between the U.S. and England, and acquiring California. For example, he pushed economic legislation in Congress (Independent Treasury), and micro-managed the Mexican War to accomplish territorial objectives. Secondly, examine the departure that President Polk made from previous administrations in regards to administrative skill. Compared to preceding administrations, President Polk was an excellent leader who firmly managed his Cabinet. He consulted his Cabinet on policy questions, but the final decision was his to make. Furthermore, he knew precisely what he wanted to accomplish as president, and he understood the political channels he needed to consult to achieve his goals.

This hypothesis is tested using data on North Dakota and Montana both before and after North Dakota increased the level of bonding required. Results generally find that the new regulations had no statistical impact on the pace of drilling and production, however it is found that smaller operators reduced their production and exited. These results are instructive for policymakers who weigh the loss of economic welfare against improved environmental quality when deciding

    The Treaty and the Land Surveyor Seminar Notes Donald A. Wilson, LLS, PLS, RPF Land & Boundary Consultants, Inc. 84 Main Street Newfields, NH 03856 ©2020 All Rights Reserved 1 The Treaty and the Land Surveyor Definitions A boundary is the invisible line of division between two contiguous parcels of land, or estates in land. Boundaries may originate, be fixed or be varied by statutory authority, by proved acts of the respective owners (as by plans and deeds, possession, estoppel, or by agreement), or by the courts exercising statutory or inherent jurisdiction. —Boundaries and Surveys, § 1 Significance to the Land Surveyor Surveys: Original: A survey called for or presumed to have been made at the time a parcel or parcels were created. An original survey creates boundaries; it does not ascertain them. First: When a parcel or parcels are created on paper, with a survey being conducted, and a surveyor is later requested to mark one of the paper-described parcels on the ground, this survey should be considered as the “first” survey, in that it is the first survey to be placed on the ground after its description. Resurvey: a reconstruction of land boundaries and subdivisions accomplished by re-running and re-marking the lines represented in the field note record or on the plat of a previous official survey. Retracement: a survey made to ascertain the direction and length of lines and to identify monuments and other marks of an established prior survey. Accurate survey (map): a map reflecting the course and distance measurements, boundaries, and contents of a territory.

    2/9/2020 Okanagan: Canada's global wine region - Decanter P R E M I U M Okanagan: Canada’s global wine region International wine experts are bringing their skills and knowledge to Canada's westernmost province of British Columbia, joining with local talent young and old, to make the Okanagan Valley one of the most exciting wine regions of the New World. Daniel Honan February 7, 2020 View of Skaha Lake and McIntyre Bluff from Okanagan Falls in the Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, Canada Credit: laughingmango / Getty T Exclusive Highlights https://www.decanter.com/premium/okanagan-valley-canadas-global-wine-region-431277/ 1/8 2/9/2020 Okanagan: Canada's global wine region - Decanter Situated at the edge of the winegrowing world, on the 49th parallel north, the Okanagan Valley is a stunning landscape of ancient glacial lakes, ice dams and calderas enveloped by steep mountain ranges, sloped benches and hillsides comprised of silty, sandy, gravelly and stony soils. Here in this marginal, cool to cold continental climate, vineyards are becoming recognised for their ability to produce world-class wines of outstanding quality, elegance and nesse. ‘Where we have a long history of wine on our shoulders in Europe, the Okanagan is more like a blank sheet of paper, where we can write a new history in a new land,’ says Sutre. ‘It is a fantastic experience to be a part of something from the very beginning.’ Untapped potential Sutre has been coming to the Okanagan to try and understand the valley’s potential for winegrowing since 1999. ‘I was aware of the Canadian wine industry in Québec, he says.
