Abstract:
Erwin Bauer has been catching bass for fifty years, and everything about bass fishing has changed in that time.

Abstract:
Two years ago, new rules were adopted to require dam building agencies to consider fish and wildlife needs when planning a big water project.

Abstract:
The American dog tick carries Rocky Mountain spotted fever, and North Carolina usually leads the nation in the number of cases. Young children are most susceptible to the disease in the summer, but the disease is most dangerous to people over the age of forty. To prevent tick bites, wear insect repellent, cover bare skin, wear a hat, and tuck in your clothing.
