Subject: [TnWeakle] GRIFFIN, IRVIN, CROWAN-Who I Want for Christmas
Date: Sat, 8 Dec 2001 23:02:37 -0600
Someone out there is related to this guy besides me, I know..
My gg grandfather was George W. GRIFFIN born 18 Dec 1857 TN; died
1942 Weakley Co., TN and buried Pilgrim's Rest in Carroll Co., TN. I knew
he first married Martha LANGLEY, but I didn't know when or where, except
before Nov 1885 (most likely) since that was the birth of my great
grandfather Charlie A. GRIFFIN.
Martha died after the birth of Callie GRIFFIN in 1886. George remarried to
Ida Capps as shown on marriage records in Weakley Co. in 1891. George and
Ida had many children together.
Some family stories stated that GRIFFIN was not George's biological name,
but IRVIN/IRVINE was. Other family stories stated that George's son Charlie
was adopted. I really didn't know what I was getting into when I
started researching this line so many years ago....yet, it seems to be
coming together finally. However, with each new piece of information,
question arises...
The first thing I sent for years ago when I began this search was George
GRIFFIN's death certificate. I was looking for his parent's names, but they
were listed as "Don't know". It stated that his birth was in Carroll Co.,
TN. He was living in the 16th Civil District of Weakley County at the time
of his death. His wife Ida was still living upon George's death and his
youngest child Maudie B. (GRIFFIN) SELLERS was the informant for the death
certificate information.
Awhile back now, I started working backwards with the census' and other
information. The below is a summary of what I ended up with when I put all
the pieces
together, like a puzzle. This is, in my opinion, a dysfunctional
family. I have yet to find George's father, but hopefully I will one day.
The 1920 Census, 16th Civil District, Weakley Co., TN:
George Griffin, head of house, age 64, born TN/TN/TN
Ida, wife, 52, TN/TN/TN
Clipper, son, 23, TN
Henry, son, 16, TN
Maudie, dau, 11, TN
The 1910 Census Weakley County, 16th Civil District:
George Griffin, 53, born TN/TN/TN, farmer, owned land free and clear.
Ida, wife, 38, TN/TN/TN
Lige, 18, son, TN
Bedie, dau., 15, TN
Clip, son, 14, TN
Erma, dau, 13, TN
Lillie, dau., 10, TN
Nina, dau, 8, TN
Henry, son, 4, TN
Maudie B., 1, TN
1900 Census--have yet to find him on this one. (Maybe he was having an
identity crisis as you will see below in the other census')
1890 Census-doesn't exist
1883- George IRVINE marries Langley (his first wife) 20 Sept 1883 Weakley
1880, 15th Civil District, Weakley:
Hermon HESSE is listed as head of house, 19 yrs old, and TN/ARK/TN
Elzira GARISON, 44, mother, TN/TN/TN (this was George's mother's sister as
shown below in 1860)
George IRVIN, 19, cousin, works on farm, TN/TN/TN.
Also in the 1880 Census, 12th Civil District, Weakley Co., TN:
LOONEY, Benjamin, 57, KY/TN/KY, head of house
LOONEY, Merica, 26, wife, TN/TN/TN
LOONEY, Minervy, dau, 27, TN/KY/TN
LOONEY, Mary, dau., 7, TN/KY/TN
CLARK, Adiline, 33, Aunt, TN/TN/TN (this is the Adiline in the 1860 below)
CLARK, Martha B., cousin, 11, TN/KY/TN
CLARK, Ellen (or Ettin?), cousin, 8, TN/KY/TN
GRIFFIN, Rena, 75, grandmother, TN/NC/NC (George's mother's mother shown
below in the 1850 and 1860)
1870 Census, 12th Civil District Weakley Co., TN:
GRIFFIN, Mary J. is listed as head of house, 30 yrs old, born TN
George, 11, born TN
Franklin, 9, born TN
Frances (female), 6, born TN
Mary, 2, born TN.
1860 Census, Civil District 1, Obion Co., TN:
GRIFFEN, Arrena is listed as head of house, 52, born TN
John, 17 born KY
Adaline, 13, born KY (this is the Adiline whose last name is CLARK in the
1880 above)
Ann A., 11, born TN
Mary J. CROWAN, 26, born TN
George W. CROWAN, 3/12, born TN
Marion (male) GRIFFEN, 22, born TN
1850 Census, 4th Civil District, Carroll Co., TN:
GRIFFIN, Arrena, 44, is listed as head of house and born TN and all shown
below as born TN also.
Elzira, 18 (this is the same person my George is living with in the 1880
census above)
Nancy C.,16
Mary J., 14 (George's mother on the 1860 census above whose name was CROWAN
Marion, 13 (male)
William, 11
John, 9
Adaline, 3
Also found:
GRIFFIN, Arreana married 9 May 1836 to FOREN, William. Now, according to
the ages of some of the older children, this was not Arreana's first
marriage or, at least William FOREN was not the father of at least two of
the oldest children of Arrena. I have not been able to find any additional
information on FOREN to date.
One more addition---
John Franklin Griffin shows up on 1920 Census Weakley County, TN, 15th Civil
District, page 238 A:
Griffin, John F., head, male, while, 58, married, TN/US/US, could NOT read
or write, farmer
Rachel L., wife, female, white, 58, married, could read/write TN/TN/TN
Laughtie J., son, m, w, 20, single, farm laborer, could read/write, TN/TN/TN
Maggie Lee, dau., f, wh, 17, single, could read/write, TN/TN/TN
John R., son, m, w, 21, married, farm laborer, TN/TN/TN
Clara May, wife, f, w, 22, married, TN/TN/TN
Louise, dau, f, w, 2 7/12, single, TN/TN/TN
So, we have last names used by George at various times of GRIFFIN, IRVIN(E)
and CROWAN.
It is actually the other peoples' names in each census that lead me to
believe that this is our George!
Some people in the family who would like to know who George's parents are
too, but don't do the actual research, think I'm way off track, but I know I
can't be. Follow the like given names as well as surnames and you follow
the people.
Santa, help me out on this one if you can!

Intense citrus blossom, honeysuckle, and tropical undertones of pineapple, calamansi lime, and passion fruit describe the nose of Cliff Lede's 2009 Sauvignon Blanc. The wider use of the Musque clone in this blend contributes to this vintage's intense floral and tropical flavors. Subtle notes of marzipan, ginger, and tarragon add complexity in the finish complimenting the lemon meringue and strawberry guava base. The crisp minerality lifts the flavors in the palette making this wine perfect with spicy dishes.

TAYLORSVILLE — A SWAT team used tear gas to end a six-hour standoff early Friday with a man wanted for investigation of domestic violence.
The incident began just before midnight at 3639 W. 5180 South when a man and his wife got into a heated argument, resulting in the man pushing his wife down a flight of stairs, said Unified Police Lt. Justin Hoyal.
The woman, who suffered minor injuries, ran to a neighbor's house. The husband followed and again threatened the wife and the neighbor. The husband went back to his house when police were called and refused to come out when they came to his door, Hoyal said.Comment on this story
From about midnight until 2:30 a.m. Friday, officers attempted to convince the man to come out. When they learned that he may have firearms inside, a SWAT team was called to surround the house. Neighbors were evacuated to a nearby church.
At 6 a.m., the SWAT team ended the standoff by launching tear gas into the house. The man came out immediately and was arrested.
Aaron Dailess, 34, was arrested for investigation of aggravated domestic assault and resisting arrest. Dailess is also a convicted felon, Hoyal said, meaning that if a firearm is found inside the house after investigators execute a search warrant, he could face additional charges.
Alcohol was believed to be a factor in the domestic assault, Hoyal said.

The code, hand-written on a sheet of paper headed Pigeon Service, was found in a small red canister attached to the bird's leg bone.
Experts from UK intelligence agency GCHQ were alerted to the message by David Martin, who found the pigeon's skeleton up the chimney at his home in Bletchingley, Surrey, whilst he was renovating.
But GCHQ have said the message, which has 27 five-letter code groups, is impossible to crack without its code book.
Investigators were also left stumped by missing details, such as the date of the message and the identities of the sender, Sjt W Stot, and the recipient X02.
A GCHQ spokesman said: "Although it is disappointing that we cannot yet read the message brought back by a brave carrier pigeon, it is a tribute to the skills of the wartime code-makers that, despite working under severe pressure, they devised a code that was indecipherable both then and now."
During the war specialist code books would contain the keys to groups of four or five letters, which had a meaning relevant to a specific operation.
Some 250,000 pigeons were seconded during the Second World War.
They were used by all arms of the services as well as the Special Operations Executive and carried a wide variety of messages, flying the gauntlet of enemy hawk patrols and soldiers taking pot shots at them to bring vital information back to Britain from mainland Europe.

CPUC shouldn't excuse SDG&E
The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), appointed by our elected officials, is posed to allow SDG&E to stick their hands into our pockets and excuse SDG&E gross mismanagement in precluding wildfires and carrying enough fire insurance.
Unfortunately that is the nature of our modern government — to avoid responsibility and "pass the buck" to the taxpayers and force us to pick up the tab for the poor decisions of managers/corporate leaders and government officials who get paid very big bucks to manage things properly.
If this nonsense succeeds, it is clearly time to clean house of all incumbents next election to hopefully return to sane and responsive government, one that works for the common good of all citizens and not for special interests/campaign money.
George Eastwood, Ramona
Thanks to all concert benefactors
We want you to know we appreciate all the help the Sentinel has been during our Ramona Concert Association's 2011-12 season. People are definitely reading the paper.
The Highland Way Celtic Concert in March was really wonderful. Five people came dressed in their kilts and tartans and were introduced on stage before the performance started. Then a big surprise — during one of the numbers Ramona concert member Marvin Foster, dressed in his tartan kilt, got up out of his seat and did an Irish jig with the music. The band had planned this for our entertainment.
Then at this final concert, our High School Symphonic Band was really excellent. Their performances are beyond belief. Most of them have only been playing their instrument for four or five years. The Middle School CORE Ensemble was also top-notch with perfect musicianship. This was their third time to play for the concerts.
The third band at this performance was the Ramona Community Brass Band, also entertaining with outstanding march and patriotic selections.
This ended our 27th season of bringing top quality musicians from around the globe, to perform for the Ramona audience.
We also would like to thank so many Ramona residents who generously support the concert association by being benefactors and patrons. Their patronage really helps keep us going.
Our benefactors are: Jeanne Ghilbert, Charles and Carol Oswalt, Guy and Kim Buchanan, Phil and Nancy Harding, Ramona Disposal, Al Slocum, and Doug and Judy Wilsman. Our patrons are the: Barticks, Brouillettes, Burney, B.Byrnes, Carvalhos, Castbergs, J. Castro, City Barber Shop, Courtney & Pollack, Fitch's, Groves, Gurzis, Hunsbergers, W. Jones, D. Jordans, Kennel & Lehman, Kirkman, Kruses, Meloches, R. Neilsons, Ransom Bros., Rollins, Sabin, S.V. Club, Scanlans, Switzers, Voorhes, G. White, A. Gonzales.
Our 28th season is planned and will soon be announced in this paper.

Autopsy: cocaine in 2 killed by police in Ohio chase
Suspects were shot 23 and 24 times after a half-hour pursuit involving at least 30 patrol cars
Associated Press
CLEVELAND — Autopsies found cocaine in the systems of two unarmed people killed by police in Cleveland after a chase that ended with 13 officers firing 137 rounds.
The reports Friday from the Cuyahoga County medical examiner show cocaine in the blood of 43-year-old driver Timothy Russell and his passenger, 30-year-old Malissa Williams. He also tested positive for amphetamines and she tested positive for marijuana.
Russell was shot 23 times and Williams 24 after a half-hour pursuit involving at least 30 patrol cars. It's unclear why Russell didn't stop.
Some community leaders called the shootings a racially motivated execution. The police union says the shootings were justified because Russell tried to ram an officer. Some officers also thought the two were armed.
Williams and Russell each had previous criminal convictions.

A traditional diet outage, the festive season is notoriously linked with good food, sweet treats and dining out. Families gather to swap stories over hot plates, and present hunters roam Christmas markets teaming with mulled wine and imported German sausage. Even coffee shops add calories to their drinks, with extra helpings of whipped cream and candied sauces to go with chunky mince pies or heavy stollen cake. Despite fears about not fitting into that amazing party outfit for the Christmas do, our base primal instincts tell us to curl up indoors and put on some hibernation weight.
Your best bet during the Christmas weeks is to go for the lighter option. There's no avoiding boxes of chocolates around the house, but just because they're there, doesn't mean that you have to eat them. Limit yourself to one Christmas treat a day; that way you'll not feel like you're depriving yourself in the season of good cheer, and you'll manage to keep calories to a minimum. Also try to focus on the most healthy parts of typical Christmas food: the lean meat from the turkey (or whatever your roast or joint) and the roasted vegetables. Split your plate into quarters: one quarter lean meat, two quarters vegetable and one quarter for little indulgences like Yorkshire puddings, Angela's roast potatoes in duck fat or those little sausages wrapped in bacon.
Christmas is also a great time to take a countryside stroll; you'll be able to enjoy some (hopefully snow clad) scenery while burning a few calories. If you're city-based and don't have a car to take you out to the country, check your local council website for tips on how to use public transport to find the perfect rambling spot. You can also treat yourself with a nice Christmassy pub lunch knowing you'll be burning off a lot of what you're about to eat. Remember though: lighter options! A winter vegetable soup and a few slices of thick, crusty bread can feel just as festive as a full-on pie and chips.
Even if you're cutting the calories here and there throughout the holiday, come the New Year it's likely that you'll be looking at the scales with a bit of disappointment. Don't worry though, you're not alone; the majority of us actually choose "getting in shape" as our New Year's resolution. The key is to stay motivated. If Christmas has made a dent in your exercise routine (or, let's face it, you never had one to begin with), a great way to keep up with your new healthy schedule is to compartmentalise your day. Find an hour either before or after work that you can label as your work-out time. Think of it as your own personal space – an hour where you can attend to yourself and work toward a better, fitter you. It might mean one less hour of relaxation in front of the TV, but thanks to the feel-good hormones that your brain releases after exercise, you'll actually end up feeling happier, more relaxed (and less guilty!) afterwards.

More hot, dry weather expected
More hot, dry weather expected
Dont take your head out of the freezer. Meteorologists at Northern Illinois University predict August will bring continued hot, dry weather.
They foresee at least six days with temperatures of 90 degrees or more. The difference in August weather is that the month ends up cooler than it starts out. That is because of the shorter amount of daylight and a corresponding drop in heat.
August typically winds up about five degrees cooler by months end. That means some mornings in the 40-degree range, a sharp change from the lows of 70 or more we have recently been experiencing.
What about that missing rain? August doesnt look too promising in that regard. Rainfall in the month varies from one to 10 inches. Only about eight days bring rain, and five of those may involve thunderstorms.
In summary, August is expected to bring temperatures above normal and rainfall below norms.

Triplicate staff writer
Investigations by more than three state agencies have begun into the Pacific Shores California Water District.
The California Attorney Generals office, the California Coastal Commission, the Local Agency Formation Commission and, to some degree, Del Norte County, are asking why the Pacific Shores California Water District still exists and collects taxes after 14 years with no progress on its original goal: to get water and sewer facilities into the subdivision.
Theres a real question about the integrity of this facilities district. So many have lost faith and feel ripped-off, said Del Norte County Tax Collector Sarah Sampels, whose office processes the property and special assessment taxes the water district charges Pacific Shores property owners each year.
In question is whether the water district is spending tax money legally and whether the district is operating outside of the initial permit granted to it by the Coastal Commission.
Pacific Shores is a subdivision of 1,500 or so lots located on the sandy soils bordering both Lake Earl and the Pacific Ocean. The area was subdivided and sold to mostly southern California and Hawaii residents in the early 1960s.
None of the lots have been built on or developed. The instability of the soil, the fact that it must comply with Coastal Commission regulations and the fact that no water or sewer system has been installed are all reasons why theres been no development.
Members of the water district board say they havent made progress because government red tape is so impossible to get through. They insist they are working to develop the property, and in the process have stockpiled more than $1 million in tax money above and beyond their expenses.
In addition, the water district board meets in Southern California, far from the district over which it presides. Instead of providing services or doing studies to determine if services are feasible, the water district weighs in as a political entity and supports efforts to keep lake levels low by breaching the narrow sandbar that separates Lake Earl from the ocean.
Now some local advocates of protecting Lake Earls wetland say after 14 years its time to either act or quit taking peoples money for the singular task of draining the lake.
Local environmentalist Eileen Cooper and several others, testified before the California Coastal Commission at its Sept. 5 meeting about the district.
In her testimony, Cooper told the Coastal Commission the Pacific Shores Property Owners Association was originally granted a two-year permit to form a community services district in 1985.
It says: This permit authorizes a formation of a special district only for the limited purpose of financing and carrying out the special study ... Any assessment levied by this assessment levied by this district shall be limited to the amount required to undertake and complete the special study.
Sixteen years later, there is no record of a completed study. But there are records showing the water district is spending their assessment collections on lawyers to draw up a permit to breach Lake Earl, a permit the county and the state Department of Fish and Game are already in the process of obtaining.
James OConnell III, of southern California, is the president of the water board and said he still holds out hope the government red tape will be cut, making development possible.
He said part of that is finding a way to lower lake levels to keep Pacific Shores dry and free of flooded roads.
Cooper and others say even if Lake Earl waters no longer flood Pacific Shores, development would still be encumbered and the water district is still operating outside of its jurisdiction.
Another peculiar thing is there was a time limit set on their permit. Theres been no indication that a renewal or extension of that has been granted, said Cooper.
Pacific Shores Water District pays an attorney to go to each Coastal Commission meeting when breach permits are on topic all paid for by Pacific Shores taxpayers.
What they could have done was define a project, do the natural resources inventory and actually give these agencies and others something to discuss. They have never even defined a project, she added.
The September testimony and research presented by Cooper and 11 others to the Coastal Commission took the commissioners by surprise, according to Cooper.
They were shocked and surprised that it had fallen through the cracks, she said.
According to Deputy Attorney General Lisa Trankley, the Coastal Commission referred the case to her department.
They asked us to see whether there had been a violation of the permit, but since its ongoing, I dont want to say much about it, Trankley said.
The Local Agency Formation Commission, which oversees and approves services district formations and annexations, is also sifting through PSWD (Pacific Shores Water District) files.
Weve requested some financial reports and we want to take a look at their original charter. Part of the problem is that were not sure who issued their original charter, said LAFCO Executive Officer Amy Beauchane.
On Monday, Nov. 19 LAFCO board members will discuss possible litigation with Pacific Shores Water District in its closed session.
LAFCO board member Clyde Eller said the board is concerned in its ability to obtain public records from the water district.
Trankley said shes not sure how long the investigation will take, what the possible repercussions of wrong doing are or what the entire scope of the inquiry will be.

Case Exterior
The case exterior is a traditional all aluminium Lian Li design with subtle and minimalist styling. You typically won't see cases that look like they belong in a Transformers movie from Lian Li. The case side panels are held on by push pins that fit securely and firmly without being difficult to remove.
Overall the build quality is excellent with solid construction and no sharp edges.
Judging by the positioning of the connectors and buttons, it would be safe to assume the case meant to be placed under a desk. The case connectors are, from left to right, one eSATA port, two USB 3.0 ports, microphone and headphone jacks. On the right are the reset button and the power button.
Note the lack of a rear exhaust fan. There simply isn't room for a 120mm fan here. This gives a clear indication that the case is designed to keep the dimensions to a minimum above all else. Lian Li obviously felt that the top 140mm fan would be sufficient as the sole exhaust. There aren't any holes for watercooling tubing either. Cooling ability was obviously not the top priority when designing the case.

Commissioner Damanaki stated that the interest on the sustainability of the fisheries sector is twofold: on one hand, fishing activities support the economy along the coasts; on the other, fishing areas require protection and proper management. Balancing these often diverging interests is not easy, but it is the joint responsibility of all levels of governance.
The fisheries reform is moving ahead. Both the Council of Ministers and the European Parliament have expressed support for the key principles put forward by the Commission. As Commissioner Damanaki said: "They agree that we only should fish at sustainable levels; that we should gradually stop discarding; that it doesn't make sense to micro-manage every detail from Brussels. They too want a policy that is more adaptive, more region-specific and stronger on the international arena."
Underlining the need to fast-track the negotiations, the Commissioner invited all parties to approach them with an open mind so as to strike a workable deal on all outstanding issues. The Irish Presidency plans to finalise a political agreement with Parliament before July. To achieve this, all institutions must move quickly, work fast and be open to compromise. Finally, Commissioner Damanaki urged all levels of government, including national members of parliament, to press this case with the ministers negotiating in Brussels and with the Members of the European Parliament to make this reform happen.

This is one controversy that keeps getting messier by the day.
Dele Momudu, on Monday night, reacted to the alleged medical report of niece, Sophia Momudu being released to the media by Davido which showed she tested positive for cannabis and marijuana.
Coincidentally or
maybe planned Davido, went on Snapchat and claimed that Dele Momudu told someone he was going to set him up.
He however, laughed off the threat whilst advising Sophia to stay away from her Uncle or else…
Check out snapshots below from his snapchat account.
Sophia don't let your uncle ruin you | Davido reacts again, says Dele Momodu plans to set him up

FOXBORO (CBS) – As the Pats get ready for another match-up against the Jets, the home team is priming themselves for what they feel will be a ground attack.
The last time they played, New York opened the game by going no huddle. That didn't work, so hand-offs should be the theme of the afternoon.
"They're known for pounding the rock, the offensive line is known for being physical," defensive lineman Vince Wilfork said Thursday. "They're built for playoff games."
"That's the biggest thing about this week – having a tough attitude towards the run," outside linebacker Rob Ninkovich said.
The Pats are real thin along that defensive line, so running the ball could possibly give them a problem. We will see on Sunday.

OverviewThe Northwest ridge of Mount Mahogany is a fun, rarely used, and scenic route to get to the top of Mount Mahogany. The trail follows the ridge looking down into American Fork Canyon and the surrounding mountains. It is a very steep hike and sometimes goes over loose dirt making a few slips a real possibility. Like the rest of Mahogany the route offers solitude as most hikers are on nearby Timp.
Getting ThereFrom I-15 take exit 284 to Alpine, Highland, and Cedar Hills. From the off-ramp turn left onto SR-92 and follow until reaching the mouth of American Fork Canyon. Follow the canyon for just a bit until reaching a gravel turn off in the road. Park here.
Route DescriptionFrom the parking lot start heading back West along the road back to the mouth of the canyon and start climbing onto the mountain. The trail doesn't exist until farther up on the ridge so just find a suitable place to climb up towards the ridge. Once reaching the ridge a you should find a trail that follows the ridge up, up, up. The trail is hard to follow so as long as you stay near the ridge you are fine. The whole way up the trail offers stunning views looking down into American Fork Canyon, and their are some drop-offs you need to be careful of.
The Ridge will take you clear to the top of the northernmost peak.
Once Reaching the North Peak you have the option of heading back down or continue traveling South along the wide ridge towards the middle peak, the highest point of the mountain. The ridge takes quite a dip before going to the top, so your climbing isn't quite over yet. Once you reach the top you will be stunned by the gorgeous view of Timp to the east, and Utah Valley to the west.
Note: Cedar Hills Golf Club owns some of the property on Mahogany Mountain so make sure to steer clear of that. Also make sure to avoid the Weather Station that is located on the north side of the mountain.

Sonic Technology Added to HD DVD Patent27 Aug, 2007 By: Erik Gruenwedel
Sonic Solutions Aug. 27 said a patent it holds that allows for the online revision of content by third-party holders has been included in the HD DVD specification for HD DVD players and optical media.
Interactivity between movie watchers in the home and the studios is seen as a major component of next-generation optical media.
Sonic's patent allows movie studios and other content holders the option to replace trailers or change menu selections on DVD and video games via a player's connection to the Internet.
"The inclusion of Sonic in the formation of the HD DVD Patent Portfolio License underscores our technology dept and our continued investment in the success of new digital media formats," said Dave Habinger, president and CEO, Sonic Solutions.
The Novato, Calif.-based company's 621 patent, which is included in similar Blu-ray Disc license material, is currently in use by select studios for standard DVD releases of Lord of the Rings: Return of the King, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban and the "Star Wars" trilogy.
Separately, Sonic last week reported first-quarter (ended June 30) net revenue of $29.5 million, down $500,000, to $3 million from previous company forecast.

Adarius Pickett is one of many top prospects at El Cerrito, Calif., in its 2014 class and the 5-foot-11, 176-pound recruit already has offers from Cal and Utah.
Another Pac-12 program might be close to offering as well.
Pickett said he's been talking a lot with Arizona State and he's hopeful the Sun Devils come through with an offer soon.
Article Continues Below
The 2014 standout has watched Arizona State's season so far, he's been impressed and after talks with the coaching staff he's looking forward to hearing more.
"I've been talking to Arizona State a lot," Pickett said. "I'm going to talk more with coach (Chris) Ball and coach (Chip) Long and we'll see what happens. Hopefully, I get an offer soon.
"I know it's a good school and a good football school. They're doing really well so far this season. They have a lot to like there."
Cal and Utah definitely made an impression on Pickett since those were the first two programs to offer and Arizona State might be close to joining that list as well.
Even another Pac-12 school is getting in the mix.
Oregon has also reached out recently and the El Cerrito prospect said he is excited to send his junior season highlight film to the Ducks' coaches to see what they think.
An offer from there would be huge.
"They're saying they'd like to see more film on me," Pickett said of Oregon's staff. "I just came out with my junior film so I'm going to send it to their coaches."

radiator replacement 05 kj sport 4x4 auto with a/c
libby has 128,000 miles radiator leaking from drivers side down along the side of the plastic outer housing. if anyone can give me any tips tricks to this job i appreciate it. going to get a oem radiator from local jeep dealer tomorrow got a buddy thats a master tech there hopefully i wont get gouged on the price, seems like a pretty straight forward job but if anyone has run into any snags please let me know.
Do you have HD cooling(IE the mechanical fan)? If so you will need some special tool to remove/install that but if not it's pretty straight forward though I'd remove the battery tray as it has a piece that hangs out(used to mount the PS pump for those KJ's with the 2.4 gas engine) that makes it fun trying to get the old radiator out and new one in.You can cut that piece off if you wish so you don't have to remove the whole battery tray.
it has the 3.7 with the electric fan, is there a way to fill the radiator from the top? i was told to remove the hex bolt from the top radiator hose housing to fill the new radiator so there is no air in the system, fill the new radiator completely then fill the expansion tank to full cold. i have not taken the crossmember off on top of the radiator yet, is there a fill on top?
No fill on top
never done it the way someone told you to, replaced mine once , buddy with an 03 has done his a few times ( cheap radiators) and always just filled from the reservoir
so the question at hand is do you fill the system from the expansion tank? or do you fill the radiator from the top hose port until full then fill the tank to full cold? and is it necessary to remove the bleeder screw when filling the system?
Now if you replace the t-stat you will want to fill through tha bleed screw to fill the engine also to make "burping" the system much easier,not required if just replacing the radiator.

The Confessor
The apartment house at Adalbertstrasse 68 was one of the few in the
fashionable district of Schwabing yet to be overrun by Munich's
noisy and growing professional elite. Wedged between two red brick
buildings that exuded prewar charm, No. 68 seemed rather like an
ugly younger stepsister. Her façade was a cracked beige
stucco, her form squat and graceless. As a result her suitors were
a tenuous community of students, artists, anarchists, and
unrepentant punk rockers, all presided over by an authoritarian
caretaker named Frau Ratzinger, who, it was rumored, had been
living in the original apartment house at No. 68 when it was
leveled by an Allied bomb. Neighborhood activists derided the
building as an eyesore in need of gentrification. Defenders said it
exemplified the very sort of Bohemian arrogance that had once made
Schwabing the Montmartre of Germany, the Schwabing of Hesse and
Mann and Lenin. And Adolf Hitler, the professor working in the
second-floor window might have been tempted to add, but few in the
old neighborhood liked to be reminded of the fact that the young
Austrian outcast had once found inspiration in these quiet
tree-lined streets too.
To his students and colleagues, he was Herr Doktorprofessor Stern.
To friends in the neighborhood he was just Benjamin; to the
occasional visitor from home, he was Binyamin. In an anonymous
stone-and-glass office complex in the north of Tel Aviv, where a
file of his youthful exploits still resided despite his pleas to
have it burned, he would always be known as Beni, youngest of Ari
Shamron's wayward sons. Officially, Benjamin Stern remained a
member of the faculty at Hebrew University in Jerusalem, though for
the past four years he had served as visiting professor of European
studies at Munich's prestigious Ludwig-Maximilian University. It
had become something of a permanent loan, which was fine with
Professor Stern. In an odd twist of historical fate, life was more
pleasant for a Jew these days in Germany than in Jerusalem or Tel
The fact that his mother had survived the horrors of the Riga
ghetto gave Professor Stern a certain dubious standing among the
other tenants of No. 68. He was a curiosity. He was their
conscience. They railed at him about the plight of the
Palestinians. They gently asked him questions they dared not put to
their parents and grandparents. He was their guidance counselor and
trusted sage. They came to him for advice on their studies. They
poured out their heart to him when they'd been dumped by a lover.
They raided his fridge when they were hungry and pillaged his
wallet when they were broke. Most importantly, he served as tenant
spokesman in all disputes involving the dreaded Frau Ratzinger.
Professor Stern was the only one in the building who did not fear
her. They seemed to have a special relationship. A kinship. "It's
Stockholm Syndrome," claimed Alex, a psychology student who lived
on the top floor. "Prisoner and camp guard. Master and servant."
But it was more than that. The professor and the old woman seemed
to speak the same language.
The previous year, when his book on the Wannsee Conference had
become an international bestseller, Professor Stern had flirted
with the idea of moving to a more stylish building, perhaps one
with proper security and a view of the English Gardens. A place
where the other tenants didn't treat his flat as if it were an
annex to their own. This had incited panic among the others. One
evening they came to him en masse and petitioned him to stay.
Promises were made. They would not steal his food, nor would they
ask for loans when there was no hope of repayment. They would be
more respectful of his need for quiet. They would come to him for
advice only when it was absolutely necessary. The professor
acquiesced, but within a month his flat was once again the de facto
common room of Adalbertstrasse 68. Secretly, he was glad they were
back. The rebellious children of No. 68 were the only family
Benjamin Stern had left.
The clatter of a passing streetcar broke his concentration. He
looked up in time to see it disappear behind the canopy of a
chestnut tree, then glanced at his watch. Eleven-thirty. He'd been
at it since five that morning. He removed his glasses and spent a
long moment rubbing his eyes. What was it Orwell had said about
writing a book? "A horrible, exhausting struggle, like a long bout
of some painful illness." Sometimes, Benjamin Stern felt as though
this book might be fatal.
The red light on his telephone answering machine was blinking. He
made a habit of muting the ringers to avoid unwanted interruptions.
Hesitantly, like a bomb handler deciding which wire to cut, he
reached out and pressed the button. The little speaker emitted a
blast of heavy metal music, followed by a warlike yelp.
"I have
some good news, Herr Doktorprofessor. By the end of the day, there
will be one less filthy Jew on the planet! Wiedersehen, Herr
te absolvo a peccatis tuis, in nomine Patris et Filii et Spiritus
Sancti. Amen."
The professor looked into his killer's eyes. "But I'm a Jew," he
"It doesn't matter," the assassin said.
Then he placed the Stechkin against the side of Benjamin Stern's
head and fired one last shot.

With humanity were born the messengers too. Postal services are the most ancient services and the most useful. Those were created simultaneously with humanity as an indispensable need of communicating among the tribes, and various regions. At the ancient period they were performed in various forms by using the natural relieve, using the signals with voice, by fire and other methods.
The methods of communication advanced with the progress of human society, started with the messengers who moved on foot for days to send the news, the signals by corns, drums, lightening signals, which make the beginning of the organization of postal service.
The first document of postal services is found in Egypt and dated since 255 years before Christ. According to this document, the postal service is present all over the continents in the form of messages, for sending them was the need to travel for days and months from one continent to another. This kind of service gradually advanced and improved as an indispensable necessity of universal communication, by using the horseman and carts with horseman.
The postal service in Albania has its own age-long history, performed in various forms in different stages, carried out by methods and equipment of that time. It has started with the call of the messengers who passed from one region to another, continued with sounds of the corns and drums till to the movement of the messengers for days and nights from one region to another. The special element of news in distance, was the use of fire by using the geographic locations which made possible the signal transmission. This is so true that even at these days that we have at our disposal all the modern equipment of communication, the geographic dominant points create the possibility of electronic transmission.
Skanderbeg era historiography has clearly revealed how did Skanderbeg received the victories or loss news, the way he gave news on the assaults of ottoman army by using fire signals, from strategic points they were settled mainly at the castles and towers.
The first very important document, that praises the particular contribute of the messenger is defined at the Kanun of Leke Dukagjini in which it is written "The Messenger doesn't get killed regardless the news he brings"
During the 500 years of invasion of Albania by the Turkish Empire, the postal service has been carried out according to the rules of the time. This is documented by the correspondence that Ottoman Empire Administration used to make with the Ottoman Administration in Albania and with various letters that circulated during this period as well as with the fact that in Albania, in the years 1878 there were postal offices using the Turkish administration stamps.
With the declaring of Independence in November 28-th 1912, and the creation of the first Albanian state, the temporary government of Ismail Qemali, estimating the importance of postal service, as one of communication possibilities, one week after the declaration of independence, as part of Temporary Government became also the Ministry of Post Telegraph Telephones, with minister the outstanding intellectual and patriot Lef Nosi.
The Government of that time took in administration all the postal offices inherited by Ottoman empire and he did make attempts on identification of Albanian postal service. On May 5 1913 it was placed in circulation the first Albanian postal stamp, which Is a seal on black color, with which were typed 2232 envelopes. This seal was placed in circulation in 11 cities, where the postal offices were functional as in Tirana, Shkodra, Durres, Elbasan. Immediately after this were also issued 6 other emissions of Albanian postal stamps, thus initiating the collection of Albanian stamps, a history that reflects the most important events of economic, politic, and social life of the country.
It is highlighted the fact that in every effort of the Temporary Government of Ismail Qemali for the recognition of Albania in the international arena, in July 7 1913, he introduced the official demand to become a member of Universal Postal Union and the International Union of Telecommunication. This membership became possible in 1922.
Albanian Kingdom as well gave special importance to postal service, having in Administration around 28 postal offices throughout the whole territory. King Zog paid particular attention to some postal stamp emissions, were one of real possibilities for this kingdom to be known in different countries.
Postal Administration of the Kingdom period, worked with precise rules, according to the documents of Universal Postal Union because it was already a member with full rights beside this organization. Albanian Post based on her internal economic and human is convinced at fulfilling very soon the European standards, having the continuous support of Albanian Government, its strategic partners in and out the country.

text: Sometimes it makes me dizzy thinking about how much money I have invested in quilt patterns. Out of the 52 purchased patterns I know I paid $60 each for 3 or 4 of them, $20 or so for several and $8 to $10 for the rest. That is a lot of money! And then, of course, there are all the books. I am not about to count the number of books I have and I love them all! And magazines! I don't subscribe anymore, but it seems I buy at least one every month. Again, I don't even want to know how many magazines I have and I intend to keep them all. I get many hours of enjoyment from all the books and magazines and about once or twice a year I go through all of them, and add more stickies! Do any of you feel the same way? or do you pass them on?

Think twice before giving pets as gifts
MADISON – The idea of finding a fuzzy puppy or kitten as a gift under the Christmas tree sounds so tradition, but gift-givers should think about what a pet entails after the holidays are long gone, cautions veterinarian Yvonne Bellay.
"Getting a pet is a serious choice, and a commitment.� It should never be a surprise," Bellay said. "And even if you know the recipient wants a dog, cat or other pet, and maybe even wants this particular one, wait until later. Bringing an animal of any species into a home during the chaos of the holidays is a bad way to start the relationship."
Adding to the problem is the fact that animals in popular movies too often �result in some species or breed getting to be a fad – and in animals that show up in shelters a few months down the road. Family members might think a dog or cat is just what their elderly or lone parent needs, especially during the holidays, but don't think of the remaining 364 days of the year.
"Resist all those temptations, because you're not doing either the person or the pet a favor," Bellay said. "Talk it over first, and if that person really wants a pet, do the research and get the right pet – in January. Instead of the pet itself, give some supplies for Christmas, or even some reading material to help get ready for the pet's arrival."
She offers more advice when choosing a pet:
•�Match the pet to the person. Consider lifestyle, space, and financial demands. Is a dog, a cat, a ferret, a good match? What breed of dog? Consider exercise needs, grooming, need for attention, and costs of feeding and veterinary care. Find resources for choosing pets on the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection�website.
•�Don't buy from a breeder blindly. Insist on visiting the breeder's facilities to see how the animals are cared for. If the facilities are bad, walk away. If you buy an animal just to get it out of those conditions, you're rewarding bad behavior and setting more animals up for neglect and abuse.
•�Exotic animals are rarely, if ever, a good pet choice. They have special nutrition and health needs that may be expensive to meet, and finding veterinary care may be difficult. Reptiles often carry salmonella, and pose a risk especially to children. Some cities prohibit ownership of exotic animals, and some may not be brought into Wisconsin – prairie dogs, for example, and some African rodent species – because of disease threats.
•�Get a certificate of veterinary inspection, or CVI, if you're bringing any animal into Wisconsin from a different state. The seller should provide the CVI, but if not, it is your responsibility to have the animal checked by a veterinarian and get the proper paperwork. If you are buy a dog from a licensed seller in-state, the seller must provide you with a CVI. Small in-state sellers who don't need licenses do not have to provide CVIs.�

With its trompe-l'oeil effect and fashionable top stitching, this new custom-made creation for Veuve Clicquot adds a note of elegance to the contemporary lifestyle. Ensuring that the bottle remains at ideal tasting temperature for two hours, the Shopping Bag offers and ideal accessory for a Veuve Clicquot moment.
Ice Jacket
Veuve Clicquot introduces the Ice Jacket, a sleek, ultra-contemporary designed Champagne cooler. Made from an isothermic, state-of-the-art textile featuring Clicquot's signature yellow, the Ice Jacket hugs the bottle's curves to keep an already-chilled bottle of Brut Carte Jaun at the ideal temperature.
Design Box
Because Veuve Clicquot design rhymes with sustainable development, the House has invented the very first industrializable, eco-friendly gift box. Produced exclusively using paper from forests under management of the Forest Stewardship Council (eco-label for sustainable management of the world's forests), it contains no plastic film and is designed to maximize on transport of any raw materials as well as on recycling. Ecological and pleasing to the eye, the Design Box reflects the spirit behind the environmental chart that Veuve Clicquot applies to all of its activities.
Giving the vintage American mailbox a "So Clicquot" twist, this lightweight metal box -in Veuve Clicquot yellow, of course- comes complete with a moveable little red flag to announce that its contents have arrived.
Built to perfectly fit one 75cl bottle of Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label Brut.
Brilliantly designed, this secure cardboard box is custom-fitted to safely nestle one 75cl bottle of Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label Brut.
Who wouldn't jump for joy getting that in the mail?

DUNKIRK, NY – Two people are under arrest and a couple of hundred dollars worth of crack cocaine is in police custody after a raid conducted by City of Dunkirk Police and the Southern Tier Regional Drug Task Force Thursday evening.
Acting on neighborhood complaints, police raided a Grant Avenue apartment where the drugs, and a large amount of cash, were seized, according to a statement released by the Dunkirk Police Department.
Police arrested two suspects at the scene: Yanira Corraliza-Maestre, 20, and Kayla A. Hoffman, 21. Two other suspects remain at large: Antoine D. Jones, 35, and Shamaar D. Braggs, 33.
Police acted on a warrant issued by Dunkirk City Court following a lengthy investigation and surveillance of the apartment, which is located at 631 Grant Avenue. Police raided the residence at about 6:30 p.m. Thursday.
Police say an intensive manhunt is underway to find Jones and Braggs. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Dunkirk Police Department at 366-2266 or 363-0313.

Still together 10 years later: Run for x-country
The Ridgewater Warriors football team had a good day Saturday.
They won an action-packed game at Hodapp Field in which 71 points were scored. On the mild afternoon, the sun squinted through a hazy sky, highlighting the surrounding hardwoods -- a perfect day from morning to night football.
For three players out of the MACCRAY school district, it was an anniversary they weren't aware of until it was brought up by a reporter.
Ten years ago in the middle of October on this same field, the three had wrapped up their first season of tackle football, losing in the Willmar Youth Football Association championship game.
Quarterback Justin Koenen, wide receiver Zach Thissen and center Cody Haas are in their 10th straight season as football teammates.
But the two years of kid football stand out in their memory.
"That was the most fun you ever have in football playing with all your friends," said Koenen on Saturday after the 44-27 win over the Fond du Lac Thunder.
"After that it gets serious," added Haas.
That first year, MACCRAY was the only entry from outside Willmar in the fledgling eight-team league. As sixth graders, the Wolverines were undefeated and league champions.
The trio from the Raymond-Clara City-Maynard district became part of a junior high juggernaut.
"We didn't lose a game in seventh and eighth grade and were undefeated our freshman year until BOLD beat us the last game of the year," recalled Thissen, who sat out that fall with a pre-season knee injury.
They were starters on varsity the next year. As seniors in 2006, the Wolverines went 10-2 reaching the state quarterfinals.
All three enrolled at Ridgewater College -- Haas and Thissen in the two-year Electronics program and Koenen in the transfer college.
Koenen and Thissen had their most productive game in their two seasons on the Willmar campus, teaming up for six completions and two touchdowns.
Super Saturday
It was Super Saturday at the stadium. Seven bowl games were played around the junior-college tilt. The day started at 8 a.m. with MACCRAY playing New London-Spicer Gold.
The youngsters play on a condensed field, which allows plenty of room for parents and siblings along the sideline. Like any football game, there's a lot of cheering and hand wringing.
The league has expanded to 14 teams. Willmar puts out five teams, New London-Spicer three, Atwater-Cosmos-Grove City and Morris two each. Belgrade-Brooten-Elrosa is new this year.
A volunteer board started the league and still decides on its direction. In a welcome move, Willmar Community Education and Recreation took over administration of the league six years ago.
Like basketball or hockey or gymnastics, youth league football can be seen as a feeder program. But be sure of this, the youngsters aren't thinking about their future in varsity football on Super Saturday.
Run for x-country
Mahad Hassan's victory this week in the Central Lakes Conference championships extended Willmar's run of individual cross-country titles to a sixth year.
Hassan, a senior, has won CLC boys titles the past two falls. Abdi Awale won two straight before graduating in 2007. In the two years before that (2003 and 2004), Kari Higdem placed first each time in the girls race.
On the fly
n Winter practices are already underway or will be soon at the college. First to start was men's basketball on Oct. 6 with 12 players with two additional prospects out with illness. Three others are on the football team. Bob Knutson's Warriors will scrimmage at Central Lakes on Oct. 25 ... Women's basketball got underway Monday; Carrie Ogdahl expects to have about 12 players though several in volleyball ... The wrestling team will start Monday with about 30 expected in the workout room as Tom Beyer starts his third season at the college after 23 seasons coaching the Cardinals.
n After drawing 1,392 in paid attendance for the Rocori game, the Cardinal football team averaged 1,617 for four home dates.
n Three Willmar Cardinals were chosen as the week's Top Performers in the Central Lakes Conference. Chelsey Wierschem was honored in girls soccer, Jayne Cole in girls cross country and Emily Nelsen for volleyball (offense). Wierschem, a senior captain and goaltender, made two point-blank saves inside the six-yard box in a playoff match win on Tuesday.
Cole, a junior, placed fifth at the St. Cloud Tech invite to lead the team to second place. Nelsen, a senior outside hitter, had 49 kills and seven ace serves in matches against St. Cloud Tech and Fergus Falls.

We all had a great time at the Bonaduce Show first anniversary party Friday night at 88 Keys, and it's pointed out that our sales staff really had a great time. Sunday night Danny volunteered as master of ceremonies at comedy club in Tacoma and was impressed by the level of talent on stage. Meanwhile, Sarah had family in town who checked out area ski slopes, but then came down with the stomach flu and Sarah wouldn't let them back in her home. Their symptoms were so obvious that even the fish throwers at Pike Place Market wouldn't toss fish at them.
A lawmaker in Chicago wants to ban energy drinks, which got us to thinking: If you could ban one food or beverage, something you find to be so vile that not only do you not want it ever again, but nobody else should be allowed to have it either, what would you ban?
Danny Bonaduce, Life Coach, counsels a mom whose five-year-old daughter has been diagnosed with oppositional defiance and is violently opposed to everything her parents tell her.
Scientists have identified a genetic anomaly that prevents some people's underarm perspiration from stinking. Sarah tries to make us believe that she is so genetically endowed. Danny and Sarah mock Mike Jones for having Haglund's deformity on both feet, until they learn it's painful, and then they feel a little bad. They still mock him, but with a tinge of compassion. What odd physical feature, like Bradley Cooper and his five nipples, sets you apart?
All this, and Sarah's Filthy Forecast, on today's Danny Bonaduce Show.

For 700 years, generations of royal swans have lived a fine life on the Thames, admired and fed by folk from Magna Carta Island to the Tower of London.†
During World War II, when some swans disappeared, there were ugly rumors that black-marketeers were conking them with clubs and selling them to shady restaurants where they were dished up as geese. Since then, under the increased vigilance of Thameside bobbies, the swans have sailed up & down, unafraid, wherever the whim took them.
Last week 66 of the swans sailed straight into a shower of bilge...

Articulating the Meanings of Collective Experiences of Ethical Consumption
In the context of the growing popularity of the ethical consumer movement and the appearance of different types of ethical collective communities, the current article explores the meanings drawn from the participation in Responsible Consumption Cooperatives. In existing research, the overriding focus has been on examining individual ethical consumer behaviour at the expense of advancing our understanding of how ethical consumers behave collectively. Hence, this article examines the meanings derived from participating in ethical consumer groups. A qualitative multi-method approach is adopted to increase the validity of findings. This includes focus groups, in-depth interviews, observation and document analysis. Results show that ethical consumption in a group project offers a greater sense of effectiveness and control when compared to individual actions. Furthermore, these groups facilitate the creation of a social circle and encourage new learning as a result of the social interaction that takes place in the ethical community of the cooperative.

Column: Stories of crime all around East Otter Tail County
I went to school at Carleton College, located in Northfield, Minn., about 45 minutes south of the Twin Cities. Northfield's a nice town of about 17,000 people, and is known for being the home of not only Carleton but also St. Olaf College.
For history buffs, Northfield is also known for being the place of defeat for Jesse James and his gang, which included other famous outlaws such as Cole and Bob Younger, Frank James and more.
Every fall, Northfield hosts 'The Defeat of Jesse James Days,' which includes a reenactment of the gang's botched robbery on Northfield's First National Bank in 1876.
I've watched the reenactment three or four times, I think, because I'm someone who enjoys history and am pretty fascinated by robberies and other criminal activity, especially when they take place in smaller towns like Northfield.
The reaction of small towns to criminals or robberies is different than what you'd find in a place like Minneapolis, or Fargo even. Townspeople tend to take action in a way that you wouldn't see in a big city, and that's exactly what happened in the Northfield robbery: When the townspeople realized the bank was being robbed, they got their guns and opened fire on the outlaws. Townspeople fighting for their own.
So, this theme in mind, I recently jumped into the archives of the New York Mills Herald and Perham Enterprise-Bulletin to see what kind of robberies or out-of-the-ordinary stories of criminal activity I could find from this area's past.
My search brought me to the Oct. 12, 1922 issue of the Enterprise Bulletin, where I found a short article with the headline, "Capture bandit." The article read:
"Wilfred Olson, Tiby Ranstad, Sidney Ckalman and Melvin Harstad, Battle Lake high school boys, captured one bandit and the car Monday night, after the Battle Lake store robbery reported in another column.
"The boys armed themselves and pursued the car to where the bandits turned off the lights and turned into a woods. They followed and caught one bandit. The other two escaped but are being pursued by volunteer posses."
This is exactly the kind of story I was hoping to find (and I'm sure it's not the only one out there, either). Robberies in small towns seem to elicit this kind of response - local high school students taking it upon themselves to track down the thieves with the help of volunteer posses. We don't really see volunteer posses anymore, do we? Just as, I suppose, we don't see high school students searching for criminals that often either.
Where's the work ethic, kids? You're not going to get anywhere doing homework. Get out there and find some bad guys!
Looking over the rest of the pages of that issue, I came across another interesting headline on the front page: "Break jail: Two Tough Birds Pry Loose Bars in Fergus and Make Getaway."
The first line of the article quickly caught my attention: "Cole Younger and Bob Emerson, two young men who were arrested last week...broke out of the Otter Tail County jail last week and escaped."
My excitement at finding a local connection to Jesse James was quickly tempered, though, when a Google search discovered that Cole Young of Jesse James fame died on March 21, 1916, and therefore, I deduced, he could not have been in Fergus Falls in 1922.
The Fergus Falls jailbreak, in addition to the Battle Lake robbery and ensuing pursuit, are just two interesting stories of criminal activity in this area, and I'm sure there are many more. I plan to keep searching through the archives to see what I can find, but if anyone out there has a particularly memorable story of small town criminal activity or daring robberies, please email it to me at email@example.com.
Or, even better, if you know what happened to Wilfred Olson, Tiby Ranstad, Sidney Ckalman and Melvin Harstad, contact me. I would be interested to know what became of those intrepid boys from Battle Lake and if they caught any more bandits after October 1922.
