Subsequently, Late Pleistocene and Early Holocene climatic warming melted glaciers and caused global sea level rise, flooding portions of the shelf and countless archaeological sites. Importantly, archaeological reconstructions of human subsistence and settlement patterns prior to the establishment of the modern coastline are incomplete without a consideration of the whole landscape once available to prehistoric peoples and now partially under water.

  • Of the New Jersey Maritime Pi- Lot and Docking Pilot Commission
    156th Annual Report Of The New Jersey Maritime Pi- lot and Docking Pilot Commission Dear Governor and Members of the New Jersey Legislature, In 1789, the First Congress of the United States delegated to the states the authority to regulate pilotage of vessels operating on their respective navigable waters. In 1837, New Jersey enacted legislation establishing the Board of Commissioners of Pilotage of the State of New Jersey. Since its creation the Commission has had the responsibility of licensing and regulating maritime pilots who direct the navigation of ships as they enter and depart the Port of New Jersey and New York. This oversight has contributed to the excellent reputation the ports of New Jersey and New York has and its pilots enjoy throughout the maritime world. New legislation that went into effect on September 1, 2004 enables the Commission to further contribute to the safety and security of the port by requiring the Commission to license docking pilots. These pilots specialize in the docking and undocking of vessels in the port. To reflect the expansion of its jurisdiction the Commission has been renamed “The New Jersey Maritime Pilot and Docking Pilot Commission.” In keeping with the needs of the times, the new legislation has a strong security component. All pilots licensed by the state will go through an on going security vetting. The Commission will issue badges and photo ID cards to all qualified pilots, which they must display when entering port facilities and boarding vessels. The legislation has also modernized and clarified the Commissions’ authority to issue regulations with respect to qualifications and training required for pilot licenses, pilot training (both initial and recurrent) accident investigation and drug and alcohol testing.

    THE LEGENDARY BLIZZARD OF ’88 Timothy R. Minnich Meteorologist From “The Blizzard of ’88” by Mary Cable • The 1880’s brought astonishing new inventions and discoveries – already benefiting the rich and promising to ease and brighten life for everyone • The great eastern cities now had telephones, steam-heated buildings, and electric lights (on main streets and in wealthy households) • In New York City, anyone with five cents could ride on the elevated railroads, which, by 1888, had been in service for about nine years • All but the very poor were blessed with indoor plumbing 2 From “The Blizzard of ’88” by Mary Cable • The decade brought major medical breakthroughs, such as antiseptic surgery, local anesthesia, and anti-rabies vaccine • Inventions included flatirons, fountain pens, and adding machines • Improvements to earlier technology continued: the modern bicycle (1884), the alternating-current transformer (1885), the Kodak camera (1888), and the electric trolley (not quite ready in 1888 but on its way) 3 From “The Blizzard of ’88” by Mary Cable • On the national scene, there seemed nothing much to worry about • Deep wounds left by the Civil War were slowly healing, and no other wars appeared imminent • In the West, the last defiant Apaches had been removed to detention camps in Florida, and the frontier was now secure for settlers • All in all, most Americans in 1888 felt tranquil and hopeful 4 From “The Blizzard of ’88” by Mary Cable • People who lived in the eastern states were apt to be more smug and self-satisfied than westerners,
