E.locationNew Jersey's greatest natural resource is its
location, which has made the state a crossroads of
commerce. Other commercial advantages include its
extensive transportation system, which puts one quarter
of all United States consumers within overnight delivery
range. Lake and seaside resorts such as Atlantic City
have contributed to New Jersey's rank of fifth among the
states in revenues from tourism.
F.Almost half of New Jersey is wooded. The chief tree of
the northern forests is the oak. A large part of the
southern section is in pine.
G.Jersey oak has been used extensively in shipbuilding.
H.The mineral resources in New Jersey are small. The
state, however, does rank high in smelting and refining
minerals from other states. Some mining activity does
still take place in the area in and around the Franklin
Furnace, which was long a center of zinc production (see
New Jersey Zinc Company).
Famous person
Samuel Anthony Alito, (born April 1,
1950) is an Associate Justice of the Supreme
Court of the United States. He was appointed
by President George W. Bush and has served
on the court since January 31, 2006.[1]
Raised in Hamilton Township, New Jersey and
educated at Princeton University and Yale Law
School, Alito served as U.S. Attorney for the
District of New Jersey and a judge on the
United States Court of Appeals for the Third
Circuit prior to joining the Supreme Court. He
is the 110th justice and the second Italian
American to serve on the court. Alito is
generally considered a fairly conservative
jurist with a libertarian streak (especially on
First Amendment issues related to religious
affairs).[2]
Famous person
Stephen Grover Cleveland was born on March 18,
1837 in Caldwell, New Jersey. (March 18, 1837 –
June 24, 1908) was both the 22nd and 24th
President of the United States. Cleveland is the only
President to serve two non-consecutive terms
(1885–1889 and 1893–1897) and therefore is the
only individual to be counted twice in the
numbering of the presidents. He was the winner of
the popular vote for President three times—in 1884,
1888, and 1892—and was the only Democrat
elected to the Presidency in the era of Republican
political domination that lasted from 1860 to 1912.
Cleveland's admirers praise him for his honesty,
independence, integrity, and commitment to the
principles of classical liberalism. As a leader of the
Bourbon Democrats, he opposed imperialism, taxes,
subsidies and inflationary policies, but as a reformer
he also worked against corruption, patronage, and
bossism.
