The main concern of this thesis is examining the affects and causes of traffic oriented design on the social generation of boulevards in terms of communication. For this purpose, boulevard concept and its historical evaluation are explained. In addition, communication is used as a tool for understanding, combining and examining the social and technical structure of boulevard. In this respect, this thesis aims to explore the boulevard concept with the spatial communication measures. To provide empirical evidence, a chart of categories of communication is prepared in terms of human and machine interposed aspects of communication. The activities of relation along the boulevard are examined by transversal and longitudinal movements with the help of the behavioral sciences and proxemics and the theoretical relation between boulevard and communication is applied on the case of The Atat&uuml / rk Boulevard, Ankara. It is observed from the findings that, longitudinal movement prior to situated activity is increased, the transversal movement prior to random activity is decreased. This causes the loss of human aspects along the boulevard, which is designed for human.

The research reveals the changes which have occurred in Campina Grande in the last decade, due mainly (but not exclusively), to the installation of the Boulevard Mall. Thus, there is a real process in this period of urban restructuring in the city, represented by the decentralization of some commercial activities and services in the traditional center, driven by the expansion of the city in East direction along with the direction of that mall s place. In order to verify this fact, a survey of urban land use in Otacílio Nepomuceno Street and Severino Cabral Avenue was conducted, in order to count the number of shops and services, land and homes. In addition to analyzing these two access roads to the mall, observations of the streets lying across these pathways were also made. We made the documentary research through analyzing newspapers, in order to gather information for the period prior to the construction of the mall, as well as in classified real estate sales in the years after the inauguration of the project, to see the process of valuation of urban land in this area.In addition, interviews with some former residents of Catolé neighborhood and with employees who work in dealerships around the Boulevard Mall were carried out. The research reveals the formation of a new centrality in Campina Grande, in the area located in the neighborhoods of Mirante, José Pinheiro and especially Catolé neighborhood. This process has triggered several changes in space. The Catolé neighborhood, particularly, used to have exclusively residential profile, but has undergone intense restatements in the last decade and has become a major area provider of services, including becoming the unifying area of flows originated not only from other neighborhoods in the city, as well as from other municipalities in the state, and neighboring states. / O presente trabalho refere-se à pesquisa realizada na área do entorno do Boulevard Shopping Campina Grande, a fim de tratar as modificações e reestruturações presentes no espaço urbano da cidade de Campina Grande - PB, no período de 1999 a 2011. A pesquisa revela as transformações ocorridas em Campina Grande na ultima década, decorrentes, principalmente (mas não exclusivamente), da instalação do Boulevard Shopping. Sendo assim, observa-se nesse período um verdadeiro processo de reestruturação urbana na cidade, representado pela descentralização de algumas atividades comerciais e de serviços no centro tradicional, impulsionadas pela expansão da cidade na direção Leste, em consonância com a direção da localização do mencionado shopping center. Para constatar esse fato, realizou-se o levantamento do uso do solo urbano na Rua Otacílio Nepomuceno e na Avenida Severino Cabral, a fim de contabilizar o número de estabelecimentos comerciais e de serviços, terrenos e residências. Também foram feitas observações a respeito das ruas transversais, que ligam essas principais duas vias de acesso ao shopping. A pesquisa documental em arquivos de jornais e mais especificamente nos classificados de vendas de imóveis nos anos posteriores à inauguração do empreendimento foi fundamental para a obtenção de informações do período que antecede a construção do shopping, bem como para constatar o processo de valorização do solo urbano nessa área. Realizou-se ainda entrevistas com alguns moradores antigos do Bairro do Catolé e com os funcionários das concessionárias que trabalham no entorno do Boulevard Shopping. A pesquisa revela o princípio de formação de uma nova centralidade em Campina Grande, na área localizada entre os bairros do Mirante, José Pinheiro e principalmente do Catolé. Tal processo vem desencadeando várias alterações no espaço. O Bairro Catolé, particularmente, possuía outrora um perfil exclusivamente residencial, mas tem passado por reformulações intensas na última década, configurando-se em uma importante área prestadora de serviços e aglutinadora de fluxos originários não apenas de outros bairros da cidade, como também de outros municípios do interior do estado, e de estados vizinhos.

This thesis records data on the development of The Park Boulevard Players, Plano, Texas, as an innovative school district theatre arts program. Data is organized to illustrate program growth based on educational and performance needs of involved students and community citizens. It proves that high school students are capable of producing summer entertainment worthy of community viewing. Being original in form and content, this thesis should serve as a resourceful guide for similar programs. The thesis contains five chapters arranged in chronological order. After Chapter I, Introduction, three chapters span three separate company seasons: June, 1978; June, 1979; June, 1981. The final chapter summarizes the program and presents evaluations and conclusions.

Master of Science / Food Science Institute / Fadi Aramouni / The brewing industry has, historically, had little food safety regulation. In response to the September 11th attacks, new legislation culminating in the Food Safety Modernization Act of 2010 was established and reinforced food safety regulations for the brewing industry. Under this expanded regulation, breweries are required to comply with the modernized Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMPs). The regulatory climate for the brewing industry is very complicated. The brewing industry is regulated primarily under the jurisdiction of the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau and the Food and Drug Administration. Based upon the regulatory environment and business considerations, Boulevard Brewing Company has opted to develop a Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) plan. Before a HACCP plan can be implemented a foundation of prerequisite programs, based on the FDA’s cGMPs, must be in place. Prerequisite programs establish the operational and environmental conditions required for a successful HACCP plan. Failure to comply with the cGMPs can lead to fines, re‐inspection fees, forced recalls, and possible criminal prosecution. Prerequisite programs were developed for the following areas: facilities, including sanitary design principles, utilities, traffic and product flow; production equipment, including preventive maintenance and calibration; receiving, warehousing, and shipping, including supplier control, chemical control, and raw material testing; pest control for insects, rodents and birds; cleaning and sanitation under a Master Sanitation Schedule; specifications, including ingredients, products, and packaging materials; personal hygiene for both employees and visitors; and lastly a system of traceability and recall. These prerequisite programs, based on cGMPs, are required to ensure regulatory compliance while minimizing regulatory and fiscal risks.
