Washington — The U.S. Senate confirmed today Kathleen Clarke, former director of Utah's Department of Natural Resources, as the new director for the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), an agency in the Department of the Interior.
Clarke will be responsible for overseeing 261 million surface acres of BLM-managed land located primarily in the West, more than 700 million acres of sub-surface mineral estate across the nation, a budget of about $1.8 billion, and the agency's 9,000 employees.

  Tom Clarke (Irish republican) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
When the Irish Volunteers were formed in 1913, Clarke took a keen interest, but took no part in the organization, knowing that as a felon and well-known Irish nationalist he would lend discredit to the Volunteers.
Clarke was stationed in the headquarters at the General Post Office at Dublin during the events of Easter Week, where command of the rebel forces was largely under Connolly.
Following the surrender on April 29, Clarke was held in Kilmainham Jail until his execution by firing squad on May 3rd at the age of 59.
