Maryland first celebrated its founding in 1834 and has continued to do so in 50 year intervals. The pattern for celebrating thus established, Maryland was ready as 1984 approached to look back with pride on 350 years of political, social and cultural achievement. As in previous an- niversaries, the celebration of the past became an affirmation of the future. To prepare the state for its 1984 celebration, the 1982 General Assembly of Maryland passed a resolution (Appendix i) creating the 350 Coordinating Com- mittee which subsequently became the Maryland Heritage Committee.

Davidson Monarch butterfly USFWS Back cover: Waterfowl on Hail Creek Terry Willis This blue goose, designed by J.N. “Ding” Darling, has become the symbol of the National Wildlife Refuge System. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is the principal Federal agency responsible for conserving, protecting, and enhancing fi sh, wildlife, plants, and their habitats for the continuing benefi t of the American people. The Service manages the 150-million acre National Wildlife Refuge System comprised of more than 550 national wildlife refuges and thousands of waterfowl production areas. It also operates 70 national fi sh hatcheries and 81 ecological services fi eld stations. The agency enforces Federal wildlife laws, manages migratory bird populations, restores nationally signifi cant fi sheries, conserves and restores wildlife habitat such as wetlands, administers the Endangered Species Act, and helps foreign governments with their conservation efforts. It also oversees the Federal Assistance Program which distributes hundreds of millions of dollars in excise taxes on fi shing and hunting equipment to state wildlife agencies. Comprehensive Conservation Plans provide long term guidance for management decisions and set forth goals, objectives, and strategies needed to accomplish refuge purposes and identify the Service’s best estimate of future needs. These plans detail program planning levels that are sometimes substantially above current budget allocations and, as such, are primarily for Service strategic planning and program prioritization purposes.

  • Bee Final Round Bee Final Round Regulation Questions
    USHB Nationals Bee 2015-16 Bee Final Round Bee Final Round Regulation Questions (1) In his memoirs, the losing general of this battle claimed he \always regretted that the last assault at [this battle] was ever made." One general on the winning side called this battle \murder, not war." For several days, the losing side refused to ask for a truce to collect the wounded, who suffered to death in the June heat. After this battle, the losing side retreated to cross the James River, then completed the Overland Campaign and began the siege of Petersburg. For the point, name this battle that climaxed on June 3, 1864, when Robert E. Lee's fortified army killed thousands of advancing Union troops. ANSWER: Battle of Cold Harbor (2) Curt Gentry alleges these documents were taken away by John Mohr and James Jesus Angleton, who claimed they were merely transporting \spoiled wine." In 1972, Helen Gandy was instructed to begin destroying these documents, although several of them ended up with their owner's subordinates, like Mark Felt. These documents contained information about the sexual lives of men like John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King, Jr. For the point, name these incriminating documents used by a powerful director of the F.B.I. to blackmail and control much of Washington. ANSWER: the personal files of J. Edgar Hoover (or Hoover's Official and/or Confidential File; prompt on FBI files) (3) This work's frontispiece features a quote reminding an audience \that obloquy is a necessary ingredient" in forming true glory. Theodore Sorensen may have ghostwritten this work, which was written while its author was bedridden due to back surgery.
