WILLIAM SMITH OF GLENROY AND BOTH SIDES OF THE PASCOE VALE BRIDGE, VIC., AUST. (and "Lebanon")
I suspect that the above Pascoe Villa, was the former Young Queen Inn, on a small block on the west side of Pascoe Vale Rd, just north of the Pascoe Vale bridge. It could also have been on a part of Brewster's grant, crown allotment 15 Doutta Galla. As Smith owned the Young Queen, he would have had no need to build a dwelling on his small farm which was in a different parish but only across the creek from the hotel.
On 15-2- 1847, Sir John Franklin bought the northern 12 acres of section 15. From Brewster memorials it has been established that the northern boundary of section 15 is indicated by the intersection of Esmale, Lebanon and Amar Sts. From this line, Franklins land went 295 links south to the e-w section of Lebanon St (D 847).
The E.J.Brewster 1st and 2nd series do not refer to a memorial concerning the land extending the next 8 chains (roughly) south to Peck Ave. If Andrew Lemon was right, it was purchased by William Smith.
(Luckily Doutta Galla microfiche 85 gave the title application number 13 676. The Sketch of Title under this number contained the following information. The blocks western boundary started 295 links south from the north west corner of section 15 (see frontage of Sir John Franklins purchase) and went another 709 1/4 links further south. Its northern and southern boundaries went east 41 chains and 5425 links respectively to the Moonee Moonee Ponds. On 4-2-1848, the same day that McCord, Jackson, Dunn and Callaghan bought their blocks to the south, Brewster sold this block to William Smith, a farmer of Glenroy.
The memorial recording this conveyance (G 460) was not listed in the Brewer index so luckily it appeared in this document. It revealed that William Smith paid L114/0/6. William Smith finally sold it to William Henry Fletcher, yoeman of Yan Yean, on 1-2-1872. The memorial listed for this conveyance (217 310) was consulted. The description of the land was perfectly copied from G 460, which failed to specify the blocks area. Fletcher paid 940 pounds, 8.25 times the price Smith had paid 24 years earlier.)
Using notes from title documents, I transposed all the purchased blocks onto my Melway. This was fortunate because, thinking these scribbled notes,(also rates transcriptions etc) would be completely meaningless to anybody else, I threw them away. I used one sketch of title together to cross-check the next as in the case of Franklin's and Smith's above; see bold type.
Sir John Franklin bought a large area of land in section 23 north of his 12 acre block bought from Brewster. The 12 acre block was combined with some of St John's grant to the north as what became known as Dunn's Farm. Because of Sir John's absence and the lease ending,or various title transfers on St John's grant, the 12 acres in section 15 was not occupied. From about 1882 John Murray Peck fenced and paid rates on it.About 30 years later, John English claimed title on the 12 acre block because of Peck's adverse possession.
The Lands Department had no idea about this, so we can't be too critical of Andrew Lemon's map showing the subdivision of section 15 on page 21 of BROADMEADOWS: A FORGOTTEN HISTORY.His map does not show Franklin's purchase. Another error made is logical. One would assume that crown allotment boundaries in Doutta Galla and Jika Jika would line up but they don't. That's why there are dog legs at creek crossings at Woodland/Reynard, Albion, Ormond/Brunswick etc. Lemon has drawn the northern boundary of 15 Doutta Galla as being on the same line as Gaffney St, but it's actually the line of Spence St in Keilor Park, continued east to the Moonee Ponds Creek.
Andrew Lemon states on page 75 "..,in 1871, The Young Queen Inn had closed for good . William Smith,its owner had bought adjoining blocks in the abortive Pascoe Vale Village over the intervening years until he owned 21acres on the north side of the creek and a similar area on the south. William Jones, who had worked land in the Essendon district for 30 years bought Smith's properties in 1874...."
Maybe north of the creek Andrew, but Smith's land on 15, Doutta Galla was sold to William Fletcher as documented in bold type above. I have Peck Avenue as Smith's southern boundary, where it adjoined McCord's purchase and Peck Avenue was the Drive for Peck's Lebanon,so let's check on Fletcher and McCord.
Having done this check,I assume that PeckS Rd (being the boundary between the Smith and McCord purchases) was a driveway shared by the owners of each. Here's how Lebanon's 34 acres came into existence.
FRANKLINS 12 ACRES. This obviously became, with William Smiths purchase, part of John Murray Pecks Lebanon. The total of the two, which comprised lot 4 of Brewsters post-partition subdivision, was about the 34 acres that Lebanons owners were assessed on over the years. Neither the 1st nor 2nd series index for Sir John Franklin mentions any sale of his 12 acres. I checked the index for Archibald McLachlan and Frederick Armand Powlett, who acted as his agents at various times. I checked the index for Dame Jane Franklin. There was no mention of this part of section 15, Doutta Galla! In desperation, I returned to the ground floor and consulted Doutta Galla microfiche 85 again.
There I saw 46645s and was partly rewarded when I raced up to the 6th floor to try application 46645. The search certificate referred to Sir Johns purchase of the northern 295 links of section 15 but there was no sketch of title. The search certificate referred to the land being fenced in 1882. This was probably done by John Murray Peck, who had bought William Smiths original purchase and established Lebanon. I think Peck noticed that nobody used the land between his 22? acres and section 23, so he just started using it as if he owned it. Broadmeadows Shire was receiving rates on his whole 34 acres so there would have been no question of his right to use Franklins land. Indeed, in 1879-80, Hugh Peck may have been occupying Franklin and Smiths purchases when he was assessed on 34 acres; names were listed alphabetically and Pecks name appears where the name of W.H.Fletcher would be expected to be. J.M. Peck died on 19-11-1903 and he does not seem to have been listed in Broadmeadows 1899-1900 rate book. It was probably at this time that the Pecks realised that their lack of title to the 12 acre block would be discovered. Did they just abandon it?
In 1879, John Morgan English, had bought Belle Vue ( renamed Oak Park and separated from Franklins land only by the creek and Lebanon Reserve) after the death of Fawkners widow, Eliza, and (converted Fawkners single storey weatherboard house into the double storey mansion still standing at the top of Oak Park Court-YET TO BE PROVED TO MY KNOWLEDGE, 26-10-2013.) He leased out the farm to his relatives, the Morgans and Mrs Morgans mother, Mary Knight but was still involved in the area, purchasing the 200 acre eastern part of section 23, which adjoined Franklins 12 acres. He seems to have done the same as I suspect Peck did earlier and, in 1902, just squatted on the land and paid the rates. In 1926, J.M.English applied for the title to Franklins land.. (Application 46645, Broadmeadows Rates.)
In 1920-1, Louisa Ellen, the widow of J.M.Peck had 38 acres, which probably consisted of lot 4 (Franklin and Smiths purchases from Brewster) plus about 4 acres of subdivision lots in the Byron Vale Estate or another estate nearby.
Why didnt Franklin sell the 12 acres when the section 23 land was sold? My guess is that he and his heirs (and the titles office) forgot that this land was on a separate title to the St Johns Estate. If hed left his land to his wife, Dame Jane Franklin, she might have been aware that the 12 acres existed. However he seems to have punished Jane for not bearing him a son. He left her only her clothes and gave the rest of his estate to a daughter from a previous marriage. This daughter had probably never been to Australia.
The confusion seems to have set in when a man named Dunn leased a 123 acre farm from Sir John. He was followed by Elizabeth Guest prior to 1862 but the 123 acre farm was still called Dunns Farm. As explained in bold type under section 23, Dunns Farm must have included the 12 acres (adjoining section 23) at the northern end of section 15. This lessee could have been Thomas Dunn of section 15 or Edmund Dunn of Viewpoint in Tullamarine.
When the 123 acre Dunns Farm was leased to Henry Mawbey for 5 years on 17-2-1862, it was wrongly described as being entirely in section 23. Significantly no boundaries of the farm were described in the memorial! (121 455).
I had intended to include a copy of Sketch of Title 46645 but the clerks scribble is so illegible that readers would not be able to make head or tail of it. Heres what it says.

WILLIAM SMITHS PURCHASE. (Lebanon).
Andrew Lemon states that, in 1874, William Jones bought William Smiths properties, about 21 acres on the north of the creek and a similar area on the south. (P.75.) The 1879-80 Broadmeadows rate book lists William Jones as the owner and occupier of 20 acres at Pascoe Vale, but as this was in the Campbellfield riding it would have been north of the bridge. This was probably the land he bought from Mr Heron in about 1865, and on which he was harvesting 2 tons of hay per acre in 1888 (Victoria & Its Metropolis P.704). The rate collector made no mention of Jones having about 20 acres south of the creek, unless my transcription was faulty.
The owners of Smiths purchase.
William Smith (not the man associated with Flemington and Moonee Ponds, P.697 Vic. & Its Metrop.) bought the Young Queen Inn from John Watson in December 1842. The inn, being on the most popular of the three routes to Sydney until the Broadmeadows Township bridge was built in 1854(Lemon P.17.) This was on lot 3 of Pascoeville, consisting of 1 acre 2 roods and 5 perches, on the s/w side of the government (Pascoe Vale) road. Lot 4 was s/e of it, probably fronting the creek and lot 2 was n/w of it. The south west boundary was a lane leading from Sparke St to the Moonee Moonee Ponds (Sydney 1523). This memorial, detailing the sale of lot 3 by the hotels builder, Edward Butler, to Watson on 29 and 31 May 1841, unfortunately gives no measurements but I think Sparke St would have been near Marks St if all blocks were about 1 acres. Fate might have decreed that Smith would never purchase his block from Brewster in 1848. He was charged with the manslaughter of his servant, Joseph Plant, in 1847 but he was acquitted. (Between Two Creeks Richard Broome.)
William Henry Fletcher.
It is unknown whether this was the same man after whom Fletcher St in Essendon was named. The latter was granted land including the Target store at Highpoint (Maribyrnong: Action in Tranquility), 260 acres between Maribyrnong-Ormond Rd and a line indicated by Gladstone St- stretching from Scotia St to the Moonee Ponds Creek, and south of this the 320 acre triangle bounded by Epsom and Ascot Vale Rds. Surely he would describe himself as a gentleman rather than a yoeman.
John Murray Peck.
Arriving in 1854, at the age of 21, with three other young Yanks (Freeman Cobb etc.), Peck was the action man who could drive huge teams of horses on the Cobb & Co line that soon opened to Castlemaine. His powerful voice and commanding presence later established him as Australias foremost auctioneer of fat cattle. Before moving to section 15, Peck lived at Mascoma in Ascot Vale. (See volume 2.) His family pioneered the area in New Hampshire, U.S.A. near the Mascoma River where the town of Lebanon sprang up. Peck, his London-born wife and their son, Harry Huntinton Peck were buried at the Will Will Rook cemetery.
In the Essendon Conservation Study (Call No. 720.288099 BUT), Graeme Butler confirms some of the title information I have supplied, apart from calling William Smith John. In his entry for Lebanon, Butler states that Smith lost the property surrounding the house to William Fletcher via a series of mortgages in 1872. Fletcher converted the title to Torrens in 1881 and J,M.Peck bought 40 acres soon afterwards*.
John Murray Peck built Lebanon (still standing in Wendora St ) in about 1882.
*As Lebanon consisted of 34 acres, it must have included Sir John Franklins 12 acres between Smiths land and section 23. The Broadmeadows rate book did not state that Peck was leasing the 12 acres so I can only assume that the co-founder of Cobb and Co had just squatted on it and paid the rates, as J.M.English did from 1902. (See details under Franklins 12 Acres.)
This land includes the Red Rooster site, where stood the illegally demolished Cooks Homestead. This name was bestowed on the house by Pascoe Vale kids of the 1930s, such as the late Jim McKenzie and his future wife Peggy, because it was owned by Broadmeadows Shire Secretary Albert Cook. (See Kilts and Cow Dung Flats by R.Gibb.) Its name was actually Wanganui (IT WAS WANNAEUE- GOOGLE "WANNAEUE, PASCOE VALE"), and it was said to have been built by J.M.Peck of Lebanon. (Sam Merrifields House Names Index P.37.) Peggy McKenzie told me that a Miss Roberts owned the Wanganui land (south to the garage site); she was probably related to J.M.Peck, whose wife, born in Bond St, London on 6-6-1840, was Louisa Ellen Roberts. (Gravestone, Will Will Rook cemetery.)
Now back to PASCOE VILLA, but first we'll look for William Smith's trial. "smith, plant, manslaughter" Refine to 1847. Make a cup of coffee at this point; it's a longy! (I'm having a coffee before I adjust the layout!)
MANSLAUGHTER.(N.B. Paragraphing is mine.)
William Smith was charged with the manslaughter, by committing a violent assault, of one Joseph Plant, on the 26th June last. The prisoner pleaded not guilty, and was defended by Messrs. Stephen and Stawell.
The first witness examined was Shadrach Williams, in the employ of the defendant, who gave precisely the same
evidence as that which was adduced at the Coroner's Inquest, and which has already appeared at length in this journal ; his evidence was in effect that the deceased, who was also in the employ of Mr, Smith, came home very drunk on the 26th June last, and commenced quarrelling with his wife ; Mr. Smith desired him to be quiet, when the deceased applied some insolent language, when Mr.Smith proceeded to turn him out of the kitchen ; in doing which they both fell, deceased having hold of his master's waistcoat, and breaking the guard-chain of Mr. Smith's watch ; he did not see Plant receive any blows or kicks, and had such been given he must have seen
them ; he was aware that Plant had for some time suffered from a hurt which he had frequently seen Mrs. Plant poultice ; the arm was so bad that upon the day on which the alleged assault occurred, deceased was unable to load his dray whenhe was going into town in the morning.
(The conversation which the witness had had with the deceased subsequent to the alleged assault, shewing the animus of Plant, and which was given at the Coroner's Inquest, his Honor would not permit to be given.)
Sarah Plant, widow of the deceased,being sworn, also gave similar testimony to that which she gave at the inquest, and swearing positively that Mr. Smith came into the kitchen, seized the deceased by the throat, threw him down on the verandah, and kicked him on the right wrist, which until this occurrence was uninjured ; she also swore that Mr. Smith threw himself upon the deceased whilst he was upon the ground, and placed his knee upon his right side ; that subsequently the deceased got up, when Mr.Smith again knocked him down, upon which Mrs. Smith came out with a rake, with which she was about to strike deceased when witness prevented her.
On cross-examination this woman ad-mitted she had been transported for manslaughter, but rigidly adhered to her former statement so far as it implicated Mr.Smith, strenuously alleging that her husband had not the slightest injury on either of his arms until this occurrence ; she also denied that any provocation was given by the deceased to Mr. Smith.
Arthur O'Mullane, M. D., sworn-I knew Joseph Plant ; he was a patient of mine; I first saw him on the 1st July;I saw him in a shop at Collins-street; he brought me a note from Mr. Belcher, requesting me to examine his arm and give him a certificate of the state of his health ; I attended the deceased, Plant, until the period of his death, on the 20th July ; deceased was a man of remarkably weak and feeble constitution. I should say his constitution was at least ten years older than himself; he told me he was fifty-nine years of age ; he had
suffered from epilepsy for years, and when attacked had several times fallen in the fire ; he had a wound or bruise on his right wrist, about three inches in length, and about two inches wide ; he died of gangrene ; I treated the deceased according to the most approved mode of surgical practice ; his death resulted from a bruise on his right fore arm, destroying the vitality of the soft parts so far as the bruise extended ; this bruise would not have affected any man but one of a very bad constitution ; treatment such as the female witness has sworn deceased received from Mr. Smith, would have a tendency to accelerate his death; amputation was performed upon the deceased's right arm on the Friday previous to his death ; he lived till the morning succeeding that on which the operation was performed.
By his Honor-If the operation had been performed the day after the injury had taken place, the same result would have attended the operation.
By Mr. Stawell-The deceased had a very shattered constitution, the result of epilepsy, intemperance, and old age; he told me he had been a hard drinker ; the bruise I speak of was between the bones of the right fore arm.
By his Honor-Ordinarily speaking, a kick on that part would not cause death.
Examination continued-The wound was about three inches in depth, and about half the width, when I first saw
him ; nature had not set up the process for the removal of the dead flesh ; had the deceased fallen down and broken his leg, it is probable, from the general state of his health, he would not have recovered ; the skin of
the arm was not broken; if the arm were not fixed, a violent blow or kick might have been given without breaking the skin.
By, his Honor-I don't think this bruise upon the arm could have been caused by anything but a kick with a
narrow blunt instrument.
Examination continued-On examining deceased there was an old mark on his hip, but no appearance of a recent
wound there ; there were also some marks on his left wrist, which deceased said he got in the bush ; I was a fellow passenger of Mr. Smith's to this colony, and a more respectable orderly quiet man was not on board.
Henry Moor - (Deceased's affidavit produced) the signature attached to this is mine ; this is merely the deposition made upon which to ground the application for a summons against Mr. Smith.
William Hull, Esq., J. P., sworn (Deceased's dying deposition produced)I knew Joseph Plant ; this is his dying
deposition, which was taken down by Mr. Belcher in my presence ; at the time this was taken Plant was sinking fast, and he was conscious that he was about to submit to an operation which might cause his death ; deceased was at a lodging house in Collins-street ; I said to deceased, " you're now about to have your arm taken off, it will probably cause your death : I tell you this, that you may regard what you now say as your dying declaration, and I hope you'll speak the truth ;" he wept, and said " it's hard to be murdered at my age."
I said, " how old are you ?" he said "59;" deceased then said, "I owe my death to Mr. Smith ," I said, " I hope you're at peace with all mankind, and particularly with Mr. Smith?" he then repeated his observation that Mr. Smith had murdered him ; I then said, " I'll send you a clergyman ;" and I believe the Rev. Mr. Thomson visited him.
His Honor-Is that all that passed ? Mr. Hull-It is, your Honor. His Honor-Then that won't do : in dying declarations, there must be evidence that the party making it was conscious that he was past all hope.
The counsel for the prisoner stated they had no objection to the deposition being read.
His Honor-That may be, but I have a duty to perform ; and, so far as the evidence goes, that deposition is clearly not admissible.
Examined by Mr. Stephen.-I have known the defendant some years and always considered him a highly respectable man ; I never heard a report to his prejudice till this unfortunate case.
W. R. Belcher, clerk of the Bench,sworn.-I recollect going to where Plant was, with Mr. Hull ; I went there by
order of the magistrates, in consequence of information received from Dr. O'Mullane ; deceased appeared in a very feeble state, and said he thought he had not long to live, and accordingly his deposition was taken.
His Honor.-Is that all ?
Mr. Belcher.-Yes, your Honor.
His Honor, having read the deposition, said that he thought more injustice would be done to the prisoner by withholding the deposition than by allowing it to be put in in evidence, and the counsel for the defendant having consented, the deposition was put in and read, in which the deceased attributed the injuries he had received on the right arm to an attack made upon him by Mr. Smith, the defendant.
Mr. Croke here referred to the evidence of the man Williams, and Sarah Plant, upon which His Honor remarked, that there could be no doubt one or the other of them was perjured.
W, B. Wilmot, Esq., coroner, sworn. -(Deposition of Sarah Plant read, as taken at the inquest.) This was read
over to her before she signed it ; this is the substance of what I considered to be material at the time. His Honor questioned the coroner as to whether Mrs. Plant said anything more than what was contained in the
deposition read. The Coroner had some recollection of her having said something about a second assault, but she gave her evidence so extremely loose that he had great difficulty in collecting the substance.
His Honor remarked that it was especially desirable, for the future, that in cases of this nature the verbatim testimony of witnesses should be taken, as what might be deemed unimportant at the time might ultimately turn out to bemost important.
By Mr. Stephen.-When I read the deposition over to Mrs. Plant she did not object to it, nor did she say that
anything was omitted.
(Deposition made at the police-office by Joseph Plant read, the groundwork of an application for a summons for an assault against Mr. Smith, in which the deponent swore that Mr. Smith, at thetime of the assault, made use of theexpression-"I'll kill the old b-." This closed the case for the prosecution.
Mr. Stephen, at the commencement of his address to the jury, remarked upon the discrepancy in the witness' statements.
His Honor.-Where two witnesses for the crown are called and contradict each other, I shall certainly desire the jury to acquit the prisoner.
After some few observations from Mr.Croke, His Honor said, there were no circumstances to enable the jury to prefer one evidence to another. Mr. Stephen said, he would at once place a witness in the box who would
settle the matter.
Stephen Bunistead, a fellow servant of the deceased, sworn.-The night before the deceased went into town on the
Saturday he complained to me of his right arm being very bad, having hurt it in the bush ; on Saturday the deceased was unable to load his dray ; for three weeks before this I have seen the deceased with his right wrist bandaged up, and deceased once asked me to bring out some ointment for his arm, but I have forgotten the name.
His Honor, in summing up, said, that the evidence of the last witness tended in a great measure to confirm Williams' statement. The woman Plant's statement was contradictory and unsatisfactory in many points, and differed materially in some parts from what the deceased had himself stated ; the jury he thoughtwould have no difficulty in acquitting the prisoner.
The jury retired for a few minutes and then returned a verdict of not guilty, accompanied with a remark, in which his Honor the Judge coincided, that there was not the slightest imputation upon the character of Mr. Smith, who was immediately discharged.
His Honor, addressing himself to the jury, said, that he presumed they discredited the testimony of the woman
Plant, and on being informed that they did, his Honor directed her to be recalled and after telling her that neither he nor the jury, and he should imagine but very few in court, believed her, committed her for perjury, telling the Crown Prosecutor that he could act as he pleased in the matter.
Mr. Croke.-From a circumstance which has been communicated to me since the jury retired I am disposed to
think that what the woman stated was the truth.
His Honor.-Well, I have done my duty in committing her, you must use your own discretion whether you indict
her or not. ((P.4, The Melbourne Argus, 3-8-1847.)
One of the people involved in this case had a connection with CUMBERLAND and SPRING FARM.But before I get onto that, I've just realised that I've made a mistake, and as I think it's in comments, I can't fix it there.The wife of William Pomeroy was Anne, not Mary. There's a clue!
This person married, if I've got my facts right, a daughter of William and Anne Greene and wrote a book, which can be perused at the historic Woodlands Homestead; I think the title is Lady --a-e--'s Memoirs. The Cumberland Estate included a fair bit of Woodlands.This person became the Chief Justice and with his cousin "Alphabetical" Foster,the Colonial Secretary, wrote Victoria's (very conservative) constitution.
Two Bulla township streets were named after the Greenes, the diagonal part of Somerton Rd that led to the east-west section and Lochton, and Rawdon St, named after William and Ann's son. It made my blood boil every time I saw GREEN ST in Melway; such historical ignorance!
Some of the pioneers retained the speech traits of their native countries. This fellow wanted his young farmhand to put the horse into the stable and as he was a nice chap,he said,"Take horse to stall,please." There was concern when the lad didn't join them for the evening meal and when they heard thundering hooves at night.
Rushing out, they saw the lad on the horse he was supposed to have put away, and on the other horse that they had frequently seen in the Oaklands point to point- the Chief Justice.

The following is the result of a whole Saturday's work which prevented me from reading yesterday's paper. I could not get it to submit as an edit re Pascoe Villa last night and again this morning, it would not submit,in the journal or as a comment. Due to computer problems, I couldn't save it as a Word file and I was terrified that I would lose a whole day's work by copying something else. (I always copy before submitting in case I get the OH NOES page.) My loss would have been small fish compared with that suffered recently by that great family historian, Neil Hamilton Mansfield, when his computer crashed (see facebook)but still a morale-sapper. As a last resort, I decided to try submitting it as a new journal, which I decided would be about WILLIAM SMITH,the focus of its content.
The following will make little sense unless you first read my journal:
The following shows that by 1850, the new (present)Sydney Road was being well used,helped by the bridge at Pascoe Vale having been swept away, and the NEW Young Queen Inn (that later became Father O'Hea's residence and is much mentioned in my Pentridge/Coburg journals)was in operation. It also shows that Old Sydney (Pascoe Vale) road had been connected to the new road at Somerton's Inn; this link would have been at least partly via Somerton Rd and possibly could have included Clifford Rd (a considerable short cut.) My conclusion that the link was via Cliffords Rd will be explained in my ROADS TO SYDNEY journal.
The Original YOUNG QUEEN, PASCOEVALE.
In announcing that he has obtained a Publican's General License for the above Estab-
lishment, begs to intimate that the premises have undergone A THOROUGH REPAIR and they will now be found in point of comfort and accommodation SECOND TO NONE in the colony. Aware that from a variety of circumstances the establishment has not for some time past enjoyed that high reputation which might be desired, W. S is determined that no effort on his part will be wanting to thoroughly retrieve its character as A FIRST-RATE COUNTRY INN.
To those unacquainted with the precise locality he may state that the house is situate upon THE OLD SYDNEY ROAD which leads into the New Line of Sydney Road at the Somerton Inn.
Parties desirous of enjoying A DELIGHTFUL EXCURSION leaving for a time the busy scenes of the City and enjoying that great promoter of health and longevity, pure air, will not, W.S. feels assured, regret paying a visit to his establishment, where
they will find everything to conduce to their comfort. In the selection of THE CHOICE STOCK trouble and expense have been entirely lost sightof, the proprietor having been influenced by a determination not to admit to his cellars any but the choicest liquors of every description to be found in the market. Aware that a trip to the country has a tendency to sharpen THE APPETITE,W.S .esteems himself fortunate in having succeeded in obtaining the services of A FIRST-RATE COOK,determined that his more substantial fare shall in point of quality be no way inferior to his liquors, EXTENSIVE BULLOCK YARDS,are attached to the premises, which abound in fact with good accommodation for man and beast,and by civility,MODERATE CHARGES, the strictest cleanliness in every department, and unceasing attention to the comfort of his guests, W. S. confidently hopes to be honored with a fair share of patronage, which it shall ever be his study to deserve at THE ORIGINAL YOUNG QUEEN PASCOEVALE.
P.S.-W.S. begs to intimate to the the surrounding Farmers and Settlers, that a new and safe fording place is formed at the creek below Mr Macnamara, as a substitute for the old bridge swept away by the recent storm, until a new bridge,now in course of erection, is completed, which will be in about a week; travelling on this line of
road will then be safe and expeditious. (P.1, Argus,7-3-1850.)
I apologise for not giving precise sources here; I lost five hours of research and typing last night; having finished, I intended to copy it in case I got the dreaded OH NOES page when I clicked submit and after highlighting it,I clicked submit instead of copy.
The area seemed like the wild west. Young Thomas Dunn, (whose farm was bisected by todays Lind St), near the Young Queen Inn was bailed up in his residence in 1848 and William Smith suffered the same fate shortly after placing the advertisement in the previous comment. This might be why he transferred the licence of the Young Queen to Henry Bishop in 1851.
John (Gildea?) had his application for a licence approved in 1855 but refused in 1856, almost certainly because he had shot a customer earlier in April; this was Mr Macaulay who lived two miles from the hotel and was well known to the McCrackens* (*McCracken letters.)
There is no mention of the Young Queen at Pascoevale after 1856. Andrew Lemon states on page 17 of BROADMEADOWS A FORGOTTEN HISTORY that John Watson (who had bought it from its builder Edward Butler) sold the Young Queen to William Smith of St Kilda for L1700 in December,1842 and that Smith persevered with the inn for the next twenty nine years.
The following is conjecture and does not prove that Pascoe Villa was the original Young Queen inn or that the inn (of which I found no mention after 1856) was used for the RETREAT FOR THE INEBRIATE AND INSANE established at Pascoe Vale in 1856 and relocated to Cremorne Gardens in 1864. In 1862, Mrs Smith was residing in Pascoe Vale but was the landlady of the Shakespeare Hotel, William having become insolvent.
These details emerged in a trial in 1863 regarding an alleged theft by a lodger.
The RETREAT may have been at John Pascoe Fawkner's Belle Vue/Grandview homestead, with Fawkner apparently having moved to Collingwood by 1852 (lease advertisement.) If this was so, Mrs Smith may have been residing at the apparently defunct Young Queen. If not, Mrs Smith may have been living in the RETREAT under a condition of a lease, or a dwelling on Smith's purchase from Brewster that became Peck's Lebanon,or on land north of the bridge near the hotel.
It seems highly unlikely, because of the wife's death notice (Argus, 18-11-1867) that she and William had separated. It is highly likely that she had a great affection for Pascoevale not shared by William, who put Pascoe Villa on the market shortly after her death on the 16th of November, 1867.
My quest to prove or disprove that the Young Queen became Pascoe Villa has not been successful and has raised the possibility that William had a motive to lease out the apparently closed inn, to avoid insolvency,and that it may have housed the retreat.
Tulip Wright is supposed to have had a son-in-law named William Smith who built the bluestone store at Bulla and sold it to William Bethell. I wonder if he was the William Smith who bought the Young Queen Inn.

Highlighting the list of accolades brought home by Amarillo area wrestling teams in the UIL State Wrestling Championships was Randall's Class 4A boys team title.
But it wasn't the only piece of hardware brought back home. Randall's Sion King was named assistant coach of the year. Palo Duro coach Steve Nelson, in his final year of coaching, was named the Class 4A girls coach of the year as well as being inducted into the Texas Wrestling Hall of Fame.
"It's quite an honor to be recognized by the wrestling community," Nelson said. "To be recognized by my athletes and my peers is awesome. Every time someone says thank you for your contribution, it's quite an honor to get that."
Nelson wasn't expecting to be named coach of the year.
"To be Texas coach of the year in my last year of coaching was quite a surprise," Nelson said. "We ended up sixth. Coming into this we were picked to win the championship. I'm still very proud of my kids. Coaches don't get coach of the year unless the kids win it for them."
Nelson said he was happy so many friends could be with him when he was inducted.
"It was really nice to be able to get it before the finals of the boys," Nelson said. "Everybody was able to see it. It was nice to have my wife here and my wrestlers to stand with me, and my principal and my assistant coaches. It was nice to be surrounded by those people when I received the award. I just wish my mother could have been here."
Randall coach David Quirino accomplished a rare feet by bringing just four wrestlers and winning a state title.
"I'm just thankful to be a coach at this high school and to continue to bring some pride to West Texas," Quirino said. "We look forward to the future. I'm proud of these guys. It's a thing where you feel good when you get it done with four. I don't know if it'll ever be done again. It's awesome. It's the 4A division and we are the champions and we did it with four. What else can you say."
Quirino said recently lost friends were in the thoughts of his team.
"We want to dedicate these victories and this state championship to coach Mike Lozano and Mr. Jeff Parton, the vice president of our booster club," Quirino said. "Two gentleman that we just lost the week before the state championships. It's a reminder of how precious life is. You have to go out and go after your goals and the things you want to accomplish in life, because you don't know how long you have on this earth."

For some reason tennis was the second hardest game on wii sports. I guess it had a little learning curve, especially when you get to the 900's. Anyway, Golf is the hard one! I still can't do that!

I need 3 or 4 Hyperion or Thunderpower 160mAh and 240mAh 1s. A couple Thunderpower G6 325mAh 2s. And a couple 2s 180mAh. Gotta be top quality cells, my jets are hard on batteries.
It looks like 3dx carries most of these, I hope they bring them along.
Just wanted to put out a big THANKS to Mike and the North Penn Aviation Club for hosting another great indoor event. It seemed like Mike was announcing raffle prizes a couple times an hour, and the gym was always buzzing with a variety of planes and helis. Nice day of flying in warm temperatures
Yes, thank you for the event! I had a great time! Thank you Thunder Power also for the charger!

Thanks to all of you for coming and supporting our club and we're glad you had a great time! This was SO MUCH FUN to host and take part in and extra exciting since it's our 10 year anniversary as a club. I hope to see all of you again next time!

It was fabulous! I must have been in in no less than 20 mid-airs. The fact that I kept on flying after 19 mid-airs should give you an idea how much fun I was having! The only reason I stopped was because it was close to the end of the day and too cold to go all the way out to the car to recharge my lipos, or I would have taped 'er up and gotten back in the air once more!
huge success
To all who participated, watched, or helped in some way, thank you! This event was another great success and it couldn't have occurred without your support. Our vendors were very helpful. Our sponsors were gracious. The guests were very friendly. Finally, the weather couldn't have been better--indoors, that is.
Here are my attempts at getting the event covered. I lent my camera to a student and he had a great time capturing your toys and smiles. If you have more photos please upload them.
There were 64 pilots on our list at the end of the event. This excludes the younger pilots that we didn't register at the door. We had pilots from Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Virginia, Delaware, Maryland, and Florida!
Thanks to the vendors and sponsors we gave away 6 speed controls, 2 micro battery sets with chargers, a fancy battery charger, 4 x 2cell lipos, a ready to fly 3D helicopter, a ready to fly airplane, 2 laser-cut balsa kits, 4 metal gear micro servos,
and 3 gift certificates.
If you have no complaints about the food I can invite the baseball moms back. They provided some outstanding food and still raised money for their cause.
With a baby at home it takes a little longer to get things done so I apologize for not returning emails and phone calls to those who contacted me. I promise I'll get to you soon.
We may have a spring event, but I can't say that'll definitely happen. I'd like to host another event but this time, outdoors under our lights on the turf field. Talk me into it. Thanks again!

Sky Vue was there with their huge multirotor.
Mike, thanks to you and to all of your North Penn Model Aviation Students for putting on such a great event. I think I've been to them all, and it seems that it just gets better and better each year.
Special thanks to all the wonderful sponsors/vendors who were so generous and donated all the great prizes. How ironic, I was planning on ordering a new CC Phoenix 10 for my latest indoor plane and wouldn't you know it, I won the very first raffle prize and was surprised to see a Phoenix 10 sitting right there in the prize box.
I was a little disappointed to see that in spite of the great sponsor/vendor turnout, not many of them brought expendables like props, glue, batteries, prop savers, Vapor parts, etc. There were some of those items, but for example, I broke a couple of props and was looking for an APC 8 X 3.8 SF prop. Maybe it's too much of a hassle to bring stuff like that, but I think if someone had, they could have racked up a bunch of sales.
Anyway, minor point, no biggie.
I really like the way you organize the event, allowing time for all the different aspects of our indoor hobby. No matter what you were flying, there was a time dedicated to that type of airplane or helicopter. 15 minutes and then switch to something else. Perfect. Well done.
It's a shame we can't do this more often. Not necessarily a big show with all the prizes and stuff, just a fun fly in the gym. Your gym is so nice, a perfect fit for our indoor stuff. Iit's a real pleasure to be able to participate.
Thanks again for all your hard work in putting on this event. I'm sure you and your students must have put in a ton of work behind the scenes to make this so successful. Thanks to all and see you next time.

Feb. 22-25 — Police arrested a 23-year-old Woodbury man who was allegedly panhandling at the Lukoil gas station on North Broad Street.
The man had previously been told he was not allowed there. He was charged with defiant trespassing and breach of peace.
— A patient at Underwood-Memorial Hospital allegedly assaulted a nurse there. The 22-year-old Glassboro resident was served with a summons.
— Police planned to view surveillance video to try to identify the person who allegedly shoplifted from the local CVS store.
Employees reported the alleged theft, and a description of the culprit was given. Police searched the area to no avail.
— A Cherry Street resident reported that some HVAC supplies, which she'd left in front of her home to be picked up by coworkers, had been taken before the coworkers arrived.
Police said the items hadn't been located as of the time they prepared a report on the incident.
— A man and woman were arrested on active warrants after they quickly pulled out of a lot in which they were parked upon seeing officers approach, police said.
The officers pulled them over after their quick exit, police said. The 29-year-old Gloucester City man posted bail and was released.
The 24-year-old Belleplain woman was released by the towns issuing her warrants. But Woodbury police issued both a summons for trespassing on the property on which the officers reported finding them parked.
— Police arrested a 57-year-old man who was allegedly harassing employees at a local RiteAid and causing a disturbance in front of the store.
Officers reported also finding he had drug paraphernalia, although they didn't specify what he's charged with having.
The man had previously been told he was not welcome at the store, police said, after other incidents. He was charged with possession of drug paraphernalia, trespassing and disorderly conduct.
He was committed to Gloucester County Jail in default of bail.
— Police cited a 53-year-old Paulsboro man they say admitted to begging customers for cigarettes in front of the local CVS store.
A caller reported the man was panhandling there. Officers soon found him on North Broad Street. They issued him summonses for trespassing and breach of peace.
— Two Philadelphia men were arrested after they allegedly took a window air conditioning unit from a Walnut Street front porch.
A 19-year-old resident who called to report the incident identified the two, as the alleged thieves after police found them.
The accused reportedly told police they'd taken the unit because they thought it was trash. One of them, a 21-year-old, had an unspecified drug when arrested, police said, while the other, 22, had an open container of alcohol.

A ploy to get marines out of India: Kerala
By Express News Service - KOCHI
Published: 21st December 2012 08:12 AM
Last Updated: 21st December 2012 09:29 AM
The Kerala High Court on Thursday granted permission to the Italian marines to go home for two weeks for Christmas, provided the Union Government approves the undertaking given by the Italian Ambassador and Consul-General and guarantees their return.
The Italian Ambassador and Consul-General should file unconditional undertaking before the court to keep surveillance of the marines during travel, while in Italy and on return to India and also ensure that they are produced in the court on or before the date specified, it directed.
"Furnish details of their address and mobile numbers and their movement in Italy to the Kochi Police Commissioner. The marines should not leave Italy, except for returning to India," the court said. On their return, they will be bound by the same conditions as stipulated in the May 20, 2012, bail order.
The Italian Ambassador and Consul-General have given an undertaking that they will be under the constant care, custody, control and guardianship of the Republic of Italy to ensure the marines' return.
However the state apprehended that this was a ploy adopted by Italy to get the marines out of India. The state also pointed out that proper method should have been taken by Italy to take up the issue with the Centre.
The complaint voiced by the state that there was no attempt from the part of the petitioners to involve the governments of both countries does not appear to be correct, as per what is observed from the records, the Court said.
The communication submitted by the Additional Solicitor-General shows that there have been correspondences between the governments.

As intellectual property attorneys, we are often asked, "Do we really need to register our marks?" The short answer is yes.
While it is possible to establish rights in a trademark based on use of the mark in commerce, it often saves both time and money to register the mark with the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
To start, registering a trademark offers substantial protections for a company's name or logo, which is often its most valuable asset. In addition, owning a federal trademark registration on the Principal Register also deters others from using your trademark and provides greater legal remedies should the mark be infringed.
Listed below are several other key advantages of registering your mark:
- Public notice of your claim of ownership of the mark;
- A legal presumption of your ownership of the mark and your exclusive right to use the mark nationwide on or in connection with the goods/services listed in the registration;
- The ability to bring an action concerning the mark in federal court;
- The use of the U.S. registration as a basis to obtain registration in foreign countries;
- The ability to record the U.S. registration with the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Service to prevent importation of infringing foreign goods;
- The right to use the federal registration symbol ®; and
- Listing in the United States Patent and Trademark Office's online databases, which will dissuade others from proceeding with the registration of the same or similar mark and prevent infringers from claiming ignorance of the mark.

The UPA government's flagship aam aadmi plank might just be torpedoed – thanks to a finance ministry move to cut social sector funding in a bid to control the fiscal deficit.
Given the short time before the 2014 Lok Sabha polls, it has also had the social sector ministries up in arms — a reaction the finance ministry insists is more emotional than rational.
The ministry's concerns are valid. In the first five months of this fiscal year, the Centre has reached 74.6% of the fiscal target — excess of government's spending over its revenues. Now, without some solid steps, the government would not be able to keep spending in check.
The finance ministry, therefore, has initiated moves to cut funding to education, health and rural development projects — worth `1.61 lakh crore — by 20-30% of the plan allocation. The aim is to keep fiscal target within 4.8% of the GDP.
The Planning Commission has already expressed its dissent with the proposal. Rural Development minister Jairam Ramesh has sought Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's intervention. The HRD and health ministries have also raised the red flag.
The cuts would hit the rural development ministry's Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme, National Rural Livelihood Mission and Pradhan Mantri Gramin Sadak Yojana. The HRD ministry's flagship programmes — the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan and Madhyamik Siksha Abhiyan —would suffer too. And some of the health ministry schemes would be curtailed as well.
The finance ministry says the proposed cuts have been based on the ability of the ministries to spend money.
"If a department has used only 20-25% of the allocation in the first six months, how can it be expected to spend entire amount in remaining period?" said a senior finance ministry. The cuts are also aimed at checking the trend of disbursing most of the public money in the last two months of the fiscal year, which usually brings in poor results.

Until recently there was no reason to believe that patients had any reason to fear contracting the AIDS virus from infected health-care workers. That is no longer the case. Recently three people in Florida, who tested positive for HIV (the human immunodeficiency virus, which causes AIDS), have been linked to a dentist who died of AIDS in September.
No one ever viewed HIV-infected health-care workers carrying out "invasive procedures" as a possible additional risk factor for the transmission of the AIDS virus. But it now seems evident that this should be considered a definite ''risk."

Portable EMG
Until now, there were choices to be made. Compromises. You couldn't have it all in one instrument Now you can, with the new standard in EMG biofeedback. Autogenic's, Advanced Technology AT33 with its innovative use of an on board microprocessor, the AT33 provides unprecedented power in a portable EMG instrument. Power for built-in data collection and analyses. Power for expanded audio and visual feedback selections. All in an affordable, portable instrument.
What Can Our New AT33 EMG Do? Everything.
All AT-33 instrument control settings are at your fingertips. Simply press the desired button on the panel to change control settings, record or display session data, or select a feedback option.
Statistical Analysis Capabilities
Only AT series instruments from Autogenics have built in statistical analysis capabilities. Simply press the AT's Statistics button when you're ready to begin collecting data. Press it again at the end of the session to display the session mean, maxima, minima and standard deviation on its large LED readout. These statistics can be manually recorded for documenting patient progress, and providing reinforcement to the patient.
Exclusive Time Period Integration
The AT33 is the only portable biofeedback instrument with time period integration (TPI). This unique feature lets you select whether the numeric display provides feedback in real time - or updates only once, every 1,2, 4,10 or 60 seconds with the mean EMG for that time interval. Using TPI makes training progress clearer to the patient, and documentable (through manual recording of data) by the therapist.
Audio Feedback
Long recognized for quality audio feedback, Autogenics has established a new benchmark with the AT33. Use of a built-in audio synthesizer has created a synergistic blend of the old with the new. Audio selections include the familiar integrated clicks and continuous tone and a new melodic piano tone scale. Audio feedback engineered to quickly and clearly convey changes in EMG activity.
Visual Feedback
The AT33 features three visual feedback selections: (1) an LED numerical display, (2) an LED lightbar (engineered to simulate analog meter feedback and a time-period averaged numerical display that lets you control the speed at which information feeds back to your patient.
The Most Sensitive EMG Available
The AT33 has amazing sensitivity. It is the only EMG capable of displayingEMG changes below 0.1 microvolt. (It accurately displays EMG changes of 0.04 uv or greater.) Part of the secret behind this unprecedented sensitivity is the AT33's auto-ranging- decimal point. It allows the numerical display to automatically adjust across the entire range of 0.01 to 999.0 uv. There are no range knobs or switches to adjust.
Simply the Finest: Buy With Confidence
Autogenic's AT33 is the new state-of-the-art in EMG biofeedback. It combines advanced technology performance and appearance, with an affordable price. We guarantee your satisfaction.

continued "I try to play golf whenever I can. Sometimes I go out there when I'm just bone-achy, weary, tired. But I feel better after I do it. I have a boat, and I'll go out on the ocean and fish when I can because it's not a real physical thing. I just try to do everything that I possibly can do. But you have to watch every step you take. There's days when you just can't do it.

British artist Damien Hirst should have no beef with anyone after sales from a two-day auction of his works reached $200.7 million.
His formaldehyde sculpture The Golden Calf sold for $18.4 million at the "Beautiful Inside My Head Forever" auction at Sotheby's in London.
The sale broke the record for a piece by Hirst. The Kingdom, another embalmed animal – a tiger shark – previously sold for $17 million.
And according to the auction house, another record was broken in the 218-piece sale: the total netted for a single-artist auction was set in 1993 when a Picasso sale with 88 works brought $20 million.
"I think the market is bigger than anyone knows," Hirst said after the sale. "I love art and this proves I'm not alone and the future looks great for everyone!"

Police locked down Rockwall High School for 20 minutes Monday after a student brought an airsoft pistol on campus.
Sheri Fowler, a spokeswoman with Rockwall ISD, said Rockwall police responded to the school after a report of a weapon on campus. No threats had been made, she said, and police locked the school down about 3:40 p.m., five minutes before dismissal.
Police found a student in a classroom with the Airsoft pistol, Fowler said. She said the detained student showed the pellet gun to a classmate. The lockdown was lifted about 4 p.m.
Rockwall police are not pressing charges on the student, said Sgt. Jeff Welch, a department spokesman. Fowler said the student, whose name was not released, will go through the district's regular disciplinary process for unauthorized items on campus.

Nicole Kidman Trains Her Brain in Europe

"I love the concept that Nintendo is reaching out to new audiences with their self improvement products like Brain Training," said Kidman. "Most importantly, I've quickly found that training my brain is a great way to keep my mind feeling young."
The title, known as Brain Age 2: More Training in Minutes a Day in North America, is set to hit Europe on June 29th. Kidman will be shown in a casual, home environment training her brain and speaking into the DS microphone over the course of 60 days. Once her mental fitness regimen is complete, Kidman's Brain Age will be revealed to the public.
"The Brain Training phenomenon is sweeping the globe, enjoyed by over 10 million people from grandparents to Oscar-winning actors," noted Dawn Paine, marking director of Nintendo UK. "We believe that Nicole Kidman's leading role in the campaign and the revelation of her DS Brain Age will surprise and excite people all over Europe."
We're also surprised and excited here in the States, where Brain Age 2 is expected to ship on August 20th.

Could she be any hotter? Damn!! My good friend LOVES Kidman and I've always thought her too 'timid' and mousy for my tastes, which always made her appear bland to me. I'm now a changed man. She's fukin HOT! I'm in for 10 copies of the game. Nice marketing Nintendo! Now I have to go get a copy of the DS Browser so I can watch this ad in private. ;)
I think that it's fantastic..Posted: Jun 26, 2007 12:00AM PST by tidus_37
That Nicole Kidman is doing an ad for Nintendo. If she was very successful being the face for Chanel No.5 (who was hand-picked by the very picky Karl Lagerfeld) then I don't doubt that she will be very successful for Nintendo as well. Bravo!

"I can't help it that I make more money than he does," says Linda Kelsey. "We both feel that our work is equal in value, so the money is really a present."
That enlightened attitude probably goes a long way toward sustaining TV star Kelsey's marriage to Glenn Strand, a carpenter. She is the frizzy-haired, sometimes frizzy-minded reporter Billie Newman on the CBS hit Lou Grant. When she took the role in 1976, she earned about $3,000 an episode, but now it's at least twice that. Strand, 29, is paid by the job—modestly, by her standards.
"Our life," says Linda, 33, "is very much outside show business. I never met anyone in the business I wanted to marry. I was overbalanced toward work until I met Glenn."
Technically that was six years ago, when she was doing summer stock on Cape Cod and dating a friend of his. They did not date, however, until 1978, when Glenn called to say he was visiting Los Angeles. "We've been together ever since," says Linda. After sharing her house for a year, they made it official last May. "We got married because it was the right thing to do," explains Kelsey. "This wasn't a frivolous relationship, and family is important to both of us."
Born in Minneapolis, the daughter of a dentist and a housewife, Linda starred in family puppet shows and high school plays. (A younger brother, Tom, is a makeup artist.) She abandoned voice lessons at 14, "when I found out I couldn't sing," but graduated with a drama degree from the University of Minnesota in 1968. A fellowship at the innovative Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis followed. She also married a fellow actor and the couple moved to Los Angeles looking for film work in 1971. (They were divorced in 1973.)
After suffering briefly as a receptionist for a financial company—"the most boring job I ever had"—Linda started getting small television roles and commercials. She competed for one shampoo assignment with Farrah Fawcett. "I took one look at her and thought, 'What am I doing here?' " Kelsey laughs. She landed another spot she wishes she hadn't, for Nestlé's Butterscotch Morsels. It's still shown, but since Nestlé's has been accused of contributing to malnutrition in poor countries by heavily promoting its baby formula among mothers not educated enough to use it properly, Linda now boycotts its products. She also contributes her royalties from the commercial to a legal campaign against the parent Swiss corporation.
In her first dramatic guest role, a $150 bit on Emergency, she played a patient. "I had all these classical theater credits, and the casting director seemed so glad I was a serious actress when he hired me," she recalls. "It was quite a comedown to lie on a stretcher and say nothing."
While purposely avoiding any permanent role in a series, Kelsey did theater—earning a New York Times rave for one production at New Haven's esteemed Long Wharf Theater—and portrayed FDR's friend Lucy Mercer in the 1976 TV movie Eleanor and Franklin. She was asked to read for a guest shot on Lou Grant after its third episode, then was quickly offered the part full-time. "I said I'd have to think about it," she says. "Actually, it took only about 20 minutes of thinking. I decided that with Ed Asner and producer Gene Reynolds, I'd be a fool to turn it down." Says Asner of Kelsey, "She's excellent, with an even greater potential as a leading lady and character actress. She's a gem."
Strand, a promotion man's son from Mount Kisco, N.Y., is not altogether without a show business background. After graduating Phi Beta Kappa in English lit from Boston University in 1972, he tried backstage jobs with various theater groups, including Sarah Caldwell's Opera Company of Boston—"It was manic and crazy, but a terrific experience." Trying to line up props, sets and union hands as a stage manager in Baltimore convinced him he was in the wrong business. "There was too much calling on the phone and being a heavy," he says. "I don't like being a heavy."
He had picked up some woodworking skills along the way, so in 1976 he moved to Cape Cod ("I always wanted to live near water") and apprenticed himself to a carpenter named John Burt. Two years later, when an astrologer predicted a rough year for Strand, he hopped a bus to California and gave Kelsey a call. "Things worked out pretty well," he grins. "We weren't going out of our way looking for something to happen, but it did."
The couple's modest San Fernando Valley house is just a bike ride from Linda's studio. They also recently bought property on Martha's Vineyard, where they plan to build a one-room, solar-powered house. "Linda and I prefer as much self-sufficiency as possible," explains Strand. "I'm not keen on slogans, but I do believe in living lightly on the earth."
Kelsey says Lou Grant leaves her little time for anything else. "We lead a very sedentary life," she explains. "We may build a fire and have a few friends over for a plate of steamed vegetables." The show has changed Linda's eating habits, which once tended toward rich French cuisine. "I was exhausted by the end of the first year," she says, "so I went to a nutritionist who changed my diet. That helped a lot." Now a semi-vegetarian (no red meat) who cooks only occasionally—"We're amazed when it tastes good"—Kelsey shares the household chores with her husband.
During on-set breaks in her 12-hour days, Linda often knits—it's no coincidence that Billie Newman is seen with needle and yarn on TV, but Kelsey insists the similarities end there. "The danger in doing a series is that people identify actors with the characters they play," she says. "I focus on what Billie would do in any situation, but I don't like to be identified with her." To that end Linda has lately been looking over film and TV-movie scripts. Her closest adviser is her husband. "I trust his opinion and seek his judgment," she says. "He tends to look at things as cynically as I do." Adds Strand: "Linda is good often enough that I don't have to lie to her."
To train for her Lou Grant role after the first season, Kelsey hung around with two female reporters in San Jose, passing herself off to the public as a reporter for the Los Angeles Tribune, the name of the paper on the show. When the current production season ends in February, she may accept a reporter's internship offered by the Minneapolis Tribune "to see what it's like."
In keeping with her feelings that Billie should be a contemporary woman, Linda says she's already figured what will happen if she becomes pregnant. "Billie could certainly deal with the problems of the working mother," Linda smiles, "so if we have a baby, Billie will have one too."

Flint city officials announced today, Monday, March 11, that seven new police officers are working the streets in the city but they are still looking to hire more.
The seven officers were hired as part of the public safety millage passed by voters in November 2012, according to the city. They started patrolling the city last week.
Ten officers were initially slated to be hired by the city but only eight qualified candidates were found for the positions.
"We had eight candidates who made it through every qualification; however, one of those candidates decided to go elsewhere for employment," said Flint police Chief Alvern Lock in a statement released by the city. "We're not done yet, we still plan on hiring more officers in the near future."
Candidates were required to have already been certified for law enforcement work by the state or have the ability to be certified.
Authorities said this requirement limited the pool of potential candidates and that the city plans to hold a recruitment drive for further hires. No date has been set for the recruitment process.
The five-year, 6-mill property tax increase is expected to generate $5.3 million this year, but that amount is expected to decline in future years as property values continue to fall and the population declines.
The public safety departments are currently subsidized by about $5 million in grants, but those are expected to expire over the next several years. The largest of which is a federal SAFER grant that funds 39 firefighters.
Emergency financial manager Ed Kurtz's office has said it would be "irresponsible" to hire a flood of police and firefighters this year, only to lay them off a few years later as the millage revenue decreases and grants are not renewed.

Check out the pricing on:
Botach Tactical (http://www.botachtactical.com)
They have been good in my experiances, but some people have had bad experiances, in delays. Just call them and make certain what you want is in stock.
Otherwise, I cannot seam to find anywhere that really can compete with their pricing.
Just got an M2 from them for $110, thats a GREAT deal, most places its $120-$130...
or their deal on the G2, for $29.99, thats a good $15 cheaper than most places...
And they have the Streamlight Scorpion for $21.95, thats insane!

I usually buy all my surefire stuff from http://www.lpstactical.com they give great service.

I cannot recomend Botach Tactical. Check the TFL or Glocktalk or Bladeforums for other feedback.
www.sableco.net has the best prices and selection that I've found.
January 5, 2003, 08:59 PM
Thanks for the replies. I'll check out all your suggestions.
I didn't even know candlepowerforums existed!

Second LPS Tactical. Others have had good luck with Sableco, Arizona Gun Runners and Brightguy.
I have used Botach in the past (without issue) for Surefires. However, ordering from Botach is always like rolling the dice at the craps table. Stay away from Botach if you are not willing to put your order at risk.

Try Ajax Grips.

Arizona Gun Runners (http://www.arizonagunrunners.com/Products/Surefire/Surefireindex/surefireindex.html) is top rate. Great service and prices.
I think ReconTech nailed Botach. If you're able to have them confirm they have the product in stock, you should be OK. If not, don't walk, run elsewhere. With so many other companies out there offering similar pricing and far better service, I don't bother with Botach any more.

Botach is currently selling the G2 for $29.00 and the Z2 for $59.00 and the the G2Z (polymer version) for only $49.00. Best prices I have ever seen.
I would second the caution that you should first check if they actually have them in stock, otherwise it'll be a loooong wait.
Currently they have lots of SureFires for sale. I think that SureFire is using them to liquidate excess stock or something.

UNEP Tracks Adaptation Actions in Africa
August 2014: The UN Environmental Programme (UNEP) has published a report, titled 'Keeping Track of Adaptation Actions in Africa: Targeted Fiscal Stimulus Actions Making a Difference,' which reviews, for both policy makers and other stakeholders, the current and future implications of climate change impacts in Africa.
The report highlights that: Africa's population is expected to double to two billion by 2050; nearly 65% of African livelihoods are directly linked to agriculture; and 97% of agricultural land is irrigated while water availability is expected to decrease by as much as 20%. It underlines that targeted solutions that ignite action, build resilience and provide opportunities are critical.
The report further describes solutions for responding to the challenges posed by climate change, including sustainable ways to enhance environmental and ecosystem resilience, such as: buffer strips; on-site water conservation; use of native species; cropping system changes; landscape-scale management; water resource protection; use of natural infrastructure; and the incorporation of local knowledge into agro-ecological production systems.
The report features sections elaborates on climate risks in Africa and addresses population and economic development related issues, such as, inter alia, income, agriculture, food prices, land use, deforestation, energy and renewables, water, sea-level rise, health and aggregated climate change threats.
The report uses projects conducted in various sub-Saharan African countries to show the direct benefits of adaptation actions and their capability to provide transitional pathways to green growth and sustainable development. It describes aquatic ecosystem projects that were carried out in Togo, Mozambique and Seychelles; forest ecosystem projects carried out in Rwanda, Tanzania and Uganda; and agricultural ecosystem projects carried out in Malawi and Zambia.

What you'll need to do is chill the coconut milk so that the liquids separate from the solids, which will give it a thicker consistency. Once you have the solids, add just a bit of salt and vinegar to taste, until you get the right flavor.
