First, I explain the what: the Center is a respected community resource with a 27-year history of excellence in connecting people to the wonders of our coastal environment. It is a place where families, friends, and school children gather to experience our exceptional seaside location and learn more about the world around them. But, the Seacoast Science Center is much more than a place to visit for a morning or afternoon. We support the consensus of the scientific community that the earth’s climate is changing at an unprecedented rate that is detrimental to quality of life. That is why we are committed to advancing conservation of our Blue Planet in all that we do. It is our top priority to help people understand the implications of climate change and declining ocean health and kindle their desire to preserve and protect our natural resources. We also understand the power of collaboration and believe that is our responsibility to engage our community in conversations Allan Waterfield about rising ocean temperatures, ocean acidification, and marine debris. That is why we are dedicated CHAIR, BOARD OF DIRECTORS to fostering our relationships with non-profits in our region that share our conservation interests. That is why we are strengthening our partnerships with local, state, and federal governments. That is why we are expanding our connections with our colleagues in the marine sciences at places like the University of New Hampshire and Shoals Marine Lab. As we aspire to be a community anchor institution for New Hampshire, we believe that it is our role to reflect the insight of a diverse team of like-minded individuals and organizations in ways we can all benefit from the shared knowledge, shared resources, and a shared voice. Thank you for being on our team. Together, we can make a real difference. 4 | 2019 Fall Impact Report EXECUTIVE LETTER I recently had the pleasure of attending the Gulf of Maine 2050 Conference in Portland, Maine. There I saw in stark terms the challenges that lay ahead for those of us living along the coast in places where economy, environment, and culture are defined by the Ocean. As I listened, I thought about Seacoast Science Center’s role as an agent for change in light of the opportunities and challenges that lay ahead. How could our small institution best leverage our location, museum setting, and educational expertise to be the best change agent for New Hampshire? Then, as I sat there with 400 scientists, educators, and policy makers, it occurred to me. Collaboration. Through the power of collaboration, Seacoast Science Center can truly be an agent of change. SSC is often recognized as a place for children but it is our collaboration with other educators, learning scientists, museum professionals, and parents that really makes our programming valuable in the community. SSC’s knack for collaboration has helped to improve your experience at the Center and your experience within Odiorne Point State Park. In just the last few weeks, SSC has worked in meaningful Jim Chase ways with our friends and colleagues at the Shoals Marine Laboratory and the Center for Wildlife in York, ME. Further afield, we’ve engaged with the EcoTarium in Worcester, MA; the Wild Center in Tupper Lake, PRESIDENT NY; and the South Carolina Aquarium in Charleston, SC to name but a few. We’ve hosted the Governor and Executive Council, worked with members of NH’s Congressional delegation, and met with state legislators and local officials. We’ve chaired meetings for large regional education organizations and participated in roundtable workshops with Executive Directors from 13 museums from all over the northeast. We are, at our core, collaborators and conveners. Engaging with people of different perspectives and experiences is what SSC does best. It makes us smarter. It makes us more adaptable. And it positions us to be the best asset for New Hampshire that we can be. Education and conservation may be the touchstones of our mission but it is through collaboration that we can best spark curiosity, enhance understanding, inspire conservation and help advance the change that we would like to see in our world. Your Friend in Conservation, 2019 Fall Impact Report | 5 MISSION & VISION OUR MISSION To spark curiosity, enhance understanding, and inspire conservation of our Blue Planet. OUR VISION The Seacoast Science Center envisions a healthy World Ocean. 6 | 2019 Fall Impact Report CORE VALUES IT IS OUR PRIORITY to ensure that our core values are reflected in all of our educational programming, fundraising activities, and business practices. The Importance of Environmental Conservation and the World Ocean We believe that the World Ocean plays a prominent role in our daily lives—moderating our climate, providing sustenance and valuable resources, as a place of biodiversity and natural wonder, and as a critical cultural mainstay of Seacoast New Hampshire. We realize that we have an inherent responsibility to nurture and conserve our natural resources, advance ocean health, and preserve our deep cultural connections to coastal land, the coastal watershed, and the sea. The Inspiration of Locale We believe that Odiorne Point State Park plays an integral role in the Seacoast Science Center achieving its mission. We recognize that by engaging visitors, first-hand, ni the significant natural features and history of Odiorne Point State Park, we are able to facilitate learning, appreciation, and the understanding of the interconnectedness between land and sea. The Power of Personal Experiences We believe that personal experiences and engagement are fundamental to meaningful education and hold the key to conserving the World Ocean. Through education and the interpretation of Odiorne Point State Park, we can foster awareness, enhance environmental literacy, advance natural resource conservation ethics, and move people to action, thus facilitating change that will help to ensure a healthy, sustainable natural environment and World Ocean for future generations. Meaningful Relationships We believe that the Seacoast Science Center’s human resource is its most valuable asset. We value a diverse and inclusive community, and will model, promote, and implement this vision. The Spark of Innovation We believe that only through innovation can we consistently provide an engaging, contemporary visitor experience. By keeping our content current, we can do our part to prepare our students, visitors, and constituents to address present and future challenges to the health, abundance, and sustainability of the World Ocean. The Necessity of Sustainability We believe that the Seacoast Science Center must be an example in our community through what we teach, what we advocate for, and how we act as individuals and representatives of the institution. How we operate as an organization must represent a positive example of how to live in a manner that promotes environmental conservation and helps to sustain a healthy World Ocean. 2019 Fall Impact Report | 7 Zero Waste Events BUILDING A COMMUNITY SSC’s popular annual events bring individuals, families, and business members together to raise awareness of environmental conservation and OF OCEAN STEWARDS celebrate our World Ocean.

  • CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present
    CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy.

Approved in Committee along party lines March 21, 2001, the budget resolution caps discretionary budget authority at $661 billion, a four percent increase over FY2001. The measure would pay $2.3 trillion over 10 years for debt reduction and would reserve $517 billion as a contingency fund for spending or additional debt reduction. In addition, the resolution contains instructions for four tax reconciliation bills and sets aside $153 billion from the Medicare surplus for prescription drug benefits. The budget resolution does not have the force of law but is a spending blueprint adopted by Congress and used to allocate funding authority to the 13 appropriations committees. The Senate is expected to begin deliberations on its budget resolution in April. Appropriations Committee CURRENT MEMBERSHIP LISTING House Appropriations Committee C.W. Young (R-FL) (Chair), David R.

  • COVER STORY || INSIDE the SENATE the LOST SENATE If Senators Can't Get Along, How Can They Govern?
    COVER STORY || INSIDE THE SENATE THE LOST SENATE If senators can't get along, how can they govern? hirty years ago this fall, Ted Kennedy was running for president, Robert Byrd ruled the Senate floor as majority leader and a boyish Max Baucus had already jumped ahead of his freshman class by securing a seat on the powerful Finance Committee. At West Point, Army Capt. Jack Reed resigned his commission to enter THarvard Law School. In Brooklyn, state Assemblyman Chuck Schumer, Flatbush’s version of a young Lyndon Johnson, prepared to run for the House. And in Louisville, Ky., Jefferson County Judge Mitch McConnell waited — consolidating power, speaking around the state, but always with an eye toward the Senate, where he had interned for his hero, Sen. John Sherman Cooper (R-Ky.), during the great civil rights debate of 1964. “That was when I first decided to try,” McConnell says. Change is a great constant in Congress: One generation is forever giving way to the next. But to look back 30 years at the Senate — when this reporter first came to Washington — is to see the last remnant of something now lost from American government. O C I T OLI By David Rogers John shinkle — P 54 POLITICO POLITICO 53 In 1979, a solid quarter of the senators had lived through the civil rights debate that elected senator — after years in the much larger House. so inspired McConnell.
