It was designated in 1992 and established for resource, protection, research, education and public use. We are happy to have Lisa Emanuelson, Volunteer Monitoring Coordinator give an overview of MBNMS and speak about its commitment to promote ocean literacy and conservation. Lisa brings 20 years of educational and programmatic experience to the water quality program. She teaches at the Ocean Discovery Center, has taught at the Catalina Island Marine Institute, and has seven years of experience working on the MBNMS Education Team.

  • 2 Silver Squelchers and Their Interesting Associates!
    #2 SILVER SQUELCHERS AND THEIR INTERESTING ASSOCIATES! Presented September 2014 by Charles Savoie “…THE CLANS WHOSE SELFISH ACTIVITIES HAVE TORMENTED THE AMERICAN PEOPLE FOR MANY YEARS---THE MEMBERS OF THE POWER MINDED UPPER RULING CLASS THAT SEE EVERYTHING IN TERMS OF THEIR OWN INTERESTS. EVERY REPRESSIVE AND FASCIST TREND IN THE UNITED STATES CAN BE TRACED ON THE RECORD IN SOME WAY, TO THIS RULING CLASS.” ---pages 484 and 513, “America’s 60 Families” by Ferdinand Lundberg, 1937. There is no evidence that Lundberg was aware of The Pilgrims Society. Continuing with number 2 in this series, as we progress towards the present, we will consider another 15 Pilgrims Society members from the leaked 1914 rosters. Unavoidably we will mention others significantly connected to them. Not all members of this nearly unknown organization have been, or are, precious metals suppressors. The organization is concerned with many other spheres---medicine, science, diplomacy, the military and war industries, insurance giants, universities, big media, and far more. This group remains present at this moment behind the scenes and traces to conspirators active in the Crime of ’73, the Panics of 1857 and 1837, both United States Banks, and much more. It can be anticipated that as they were in earlier times the source of precious metals price and monetary suppression, that the ringleaders in this arena today are also members. That’s why it’s important to maintain pressure on them to post rosters to public view. None of the nine rosters from bygone years were voluntarily released. 1) Henry Clews (1836-1923) is described by Wikipedia as having cofounded in 1859 “Livermore, Clews & Company, then the second largest marketer of Federal bonds during the Civil War.” In 1877 he was the principal in Clews & Company.

I am Kaitlyn Akroush, your chair for this committee. I am currently a second year student at Seton Hall University, double majoring in Diplomacy/International Relations and Philosophy. I am also a member of the Honors Program, the Seton Hall United Nations Association, and Turning Point USA. I have been a part of the Seton Hall United Nations Association since my freshman year and have truly enjoyed every bit of it. I have traveled and attended multiple conferences, participating in both General Assembly and Crisis Committees. This committee in particular is interesting as it will deal with the chaotic circumstances during the construction of the Transcontinental Railroad. A long road lies ahead, and there are many issues within the scope of this committee that need to be solved. Theodore Judah, American civil engineer and the central figure in the construction of the railroad has died, and the nation is in the midst of civil war. It is up to America’s remaining engineers to step up and unite the country, both figuratively and literally, all while maintaining positive relationships with Native Americans during the expansion West.

In historical reality, however, some Western « boosters» made it into the ranks of the national business elite. Thus the promoters of the Central Pacific Railroad, first a small, Sacramento-based railroad company, built the western branch of the first transcontinental railroad and became known as the California “Big Four”.

  • Dr. Mathias C. Williams
    Dr. Mathias C. Williams: Early Settler of College Hill & Abolitionist The Strobridge Lithograph of College Hill c1860, showing the home and grounds of Dr. Mathias C. Williams in College Hill (lower right), as it would have appeared prior to being consumed in a fire in 1864. At left is the Farmers’ College and Cary’s Academy Buildings. Introduction When I was three years old, my parents purchased what was known as the Daniel B Pierson home, and later the Orville Simpson home. Growing up in an old house with a rolling landscape around it was a true joy. The old place, since christened as Tanglewood, has always held a special position for me. As an adult, this eventually meant delving into the history of the home and the families who inhabited it and shaped the landscape and architecture of which I have become the steward. Most all of the material began with Daniel B. Pierson and went forward; but I want to know what was there before that? Well, William Cary purchased 491 acres in Section 30 of Millcreek Township in 1813 at $7 per acre and that became the core of College Hill. Of these acres, he later sold 56 of them in 1819 to his half-brother John Strong, and a decade later the southernmost portion of that tract was made into a ten acre lot that would hold its form for nearly a century and become the residence of Daniel B. Pierson. In the recorded history of College Hill we have found that there have been many omissions.

Based on a work at www.walthowe.com. The Internet was the result of some visionary thinking by people in the early 1960s who saw great potential value in allowing computers to share information on research and development in scientific and military fields. J.C.R. Licklider of MIT, first proposed a global network of computers in 1962, and moved over to the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) in late 1962 to head the work to develop it. Leonard Kleinrock of MIT and later UCLA developed the theory of packet switching, which was to form the basis of Internet connections. Lawrence Roberts of MIT connected a Massachusetts computer with a California computer in 1965 over dial-up telephone lines. It showed the feasibility of wide area networking, but also showed that the telephone line's circuit switching was inadequate. Kleinrock's packet switching theory was confirmed. Roberts moved over to DARPA in 1966 and developed his plan for ARPANET.
