So when you're out on the trail, you don't want to carry a million tenkara flies and at the VERY minimum don't want to be carrying a bulkier 17g (Zimmerbuilt fly box weight - Lightest Found) fly box. So I started thinking...Mini Altoids Tin (14.2g)...nah. OH WAIT! I have a mini flip top box that would be perfect! My old ZPacks toothbrush case...9g...WIN!KJ
Ok, I don't fly fish, so I have no idea what is needed, but I want to see a photo of it packed up. I have a zpacks kit and there's not much room!
re-use an ordinary matchbox, sans matches. stores more size 10-12 kebaris than you'll need.
Ooh! That's a good one too Craig!

The End of Sorrow
The Bhagavad Gita for Daily Living, Volume I
Eknath Easwaran is a foremost translator and interpreter of the much-loved Indian scripture, the Bhagavad Gita. He liked to say that his verse-by-verse commentary grew like a tree issuing directly from his life, which was so rooted in the Gita that he found a deep understanding of its teachings in the most everyday experiences ? sharing a treat with young children, walking with friends down a busy street, or watching a mime in San Francisco's Union Square.
Easwaran translates each verse, relates it to our modern lives through stories and anecdotes, and gives us spiritual exercises that we can use every day. This first volume in a three-volume set covers chapters 1?6 of the Gita, and concentrates on the individual: the nature of our innermost Self, how it can be discovered in the depths of consciousness, and how this discovery transforms daily life. The introduction includes instructions in Easwaran's universal method of passage meditation.less

Although tied to the production of natural gas and crude oil, LPG has its own distinct advantages and can perform nearly every fuel function of the primary fuels from which it is derived.
When natural gas and crude oil are drawn from the earth, a mixture of several different gases and liquids are extracted, with LPG typically accounting for roughly a total of 5%. Before natural gas and oil can be transported or used, the gases that make up LPG - which are slightly heavier – and are separated out.
The process of refining oil is complex and involves many stages. LPG is produced from oil at several of these stages including atmospheric distillation, reforming, cracking and others. It is produced because the gases of which it is composed (butane and propane) are trapped inside the crude oil. In order to stabilise the crude oil before pipeline or tanker distribution, these 'associated' or natural gases are further processed into LPG.
In crude oil refining, the gases that make up LPG are the first products produced on the way to making the heavier fuels such as diesel, jet fuel, fuel oil and gasoline. Roughly 3% of a typical barrel of crude oil is refined into LPG, although as much as 40% of a barrel could be converted into LPG.

Remember Me
The Blasters first started playing in the late 70's, hammering out burning rhythm & blues and roots-influenced rock and roll in biker bars in their hometown of Downey, California. It wasn't long before word about the band's searing live sets spread to Los Angeles, and the band carved out a name for itself in the city's burgeoning club scene. Along with X and Los Lobos, the Blasters became an LA favorite. They enjoyed a punk rock following to their bluesy straightforward rock, playing to the fans of the newfangled American punk rock movement that was just at its beginning. Their debut recording on the small but feisty Rollin' Rock label has since become a coveted collector's item. Soon thereafter, they began attracting the attention of other record companies.
The band was on the crest of the wave during the resurgence of American roots rock, a genre they helped define with their debut album "American Music." Many have tried to imitate The Blasters' sound but no one has been able to harness the passion and perseverance with which they play. With a tradition of producing timeless and meaningful songs, touring extensively, and collaborating with some of the most respected roots rock artists, like John Cougar Mellencamp and Lee Allen. The Blasters have continually stayed true to their original vision: to play songs built on America's greatest musical traditions.
Upon Dave Alvin's departure to pursue a solo career in August of 1986, the band was as strong as ever and riding high on their success. After rigorously touring, The Blasters took some time off the road to reflect and work on new material. At that time, a number of major films hit theaters featuring The Blasters tunes including Bull Durham ("So Long Baby, Goodbye) and Some One To Watch Over Me ("Marie, Marie"). The Blasters spent the next few years attempting to find a guitar player suitable to measure up to the impeccable standards by which The Blasters play. The band met veteran guitar maestro, Keith Wyatt.
4-11-44 is The Blasters' fifth studio album. It is fourteen tracks of their signature rock and blues. Phil Alvin's vocals are as powerful and true as they ever were and the band follows through with steady, raucous riffs and rhythms. Their music continues to be used frequently in dark, pulp films and television shows such as From Dusk to Dawn, Streets of Fire, and Six Feet Under. Originally released in the UK in 2004, 4-11-44 was released on Rainman Records in August of 2005.

About Rory Sagner
The Way Home - Setting Theme
Chosen by Director James Murphy for his upcoming Short Film
Thank you very much for visiting my website. Your thoughts and reactions to my work are much appreciated so please do leave comments and feel free to contact me with any questions!
Though I have worked primarily in the healthcare field for many years, my first career was as a graphic and fine artist. I have been fascinated with art and photography since early childhood when I used to 'borrow' my brother's old box camera to play with. While living in Santa Monica, Los Angeles, and Long Beach, CA, I experimented with black and white photography, thematic series (doorways, ghost cats, textures), and blissfully enjoyed the benefits of having my own darkroom and potter's wheel! While working in the Art Department of a large printing company in Los Angeles, I designed brochures, logo sets and packaging, experimented with large format copy cameras, and did commissioned portraits and murals for private clients.
I have continued primarily with photography over the years and find a special joy in sharing the amazing beauty and infinite variety that is revealed every moment here on our beloved Earth. I hope that you experience the same joy in seeing my work, that I have in being a vehicle of it's expression.

There is much more information available regarding the Julius family at www.thekingscandlesticks.com, following are a few interesting extracts.
The name The Kings Candlesticks comes from candlesticks that King George IV gave to George Alfred Julius' great grandfather Dr. George Charles Julius. King George IV used to stop his carriage when he saw George Charles Julius to tell him There is nothing in the window today. This referred to the way the King signalled whether the royal family had any need for the doctor to visit, by sticking some putty on a window.
This family is traced back, but not proven to John Julius, of Nth Yarmouth, who, in the 17th C, became a sugar planter on the Island of St Kitts, (St Christopher) West Indies. His son Capt William Julius RN was honoured with burial in Westminster Abbey for his success in capturing French naval "Prizes". William's descendants worked the land with their slaves, becoming wealthy and influential. Spreading out across the world.
There is an interesting anecdote relating to William John Julius born in 1726 in St Kitts, which I have summarised. When William lived in Cavendish Square London, he was secretary to the Prime Minister, The Marquis of Rockingham. He lived the life of a fashionable man about town. At this time highwaymen abounded, one of them was Sixteen Stringed Jack considered second only to Dick Turpin. The nickname refers to the 16 various coloured strings he wore on the knees of his silk breeches. The Duke of Argyle out riding one night was bailed up by an armed robber who threatened to shoot him. In reply the Duke drew his pistol and fired at the robber who fled back to London. The Duke who had recognised this renowned highwayman gave chase but was given the slip. The Duke was taken by the highwayman's fine grey horse which reminded him of William Julius' very celebrated four grey horses. He then went to visit William and found he was out to see a play. The Duke interrupted William in his box at the theater and William informed the Duke that he must be mistaken as he had travelled to the theater with the four greys hauling the carriage and that the horses were at the local stables. The Duke convinced Julius to accompany him to the stables. Three of the horses were cold and calm and the fourth was panting and foaming. The Duke recognised William's coachman as Sixteen Stringed Jack who was arrested, tried and hanged at Tyburn. Note: the original document from which this summary was derived is the Julius family magazine Julius Jottings No 4 Jan 1901. I have seen another version of the demise of John Rann (Sixteen String Jack).
Whilst on holiday in New Zealand in September 2007 I visited Christchurch Cathedral. I spoke to one of the guides indicating that I was interested in Archbishop Churchill Julius, George's father. I was surprised to find that he knew about George and that George was regarded as somewhat of a curiosity considering his business association with gambling. George's mother was Alice Frances Rowlandson.
Churchill Julius was appointed Archdeacon Ballarat in 1884, nominated to the Diocese of Christchurch in 1889, consecrated Bishop of Christchurch in 1890, Anglican Primate and Archbishop of New Zealand commencing 1922. He was on the Board of Governors of Canterbury College (University). He was known for his liberal views. The year of my visit was the 90th anniversary of Bishop Julius Hall. Bishop Julius gave his home Bishopscourt Park Terrace to be a dwelling for women students in Christchurch. Churchill's father was Dr. Frederic Gilder Julius a surgeon who was married to Ellen Hannah Smith.
There is a list of Deans inside the Cathedral, John Awdry Julius, George's brother is amongst them. George had 2 brothers and 5 sisters.
I noticed that there was a "Julius Place" whilst visiting Akaroa on the Banks Peninsula. Checking to see if this had anything to do with the Julius family, I learnt that Alfred Henry Julius first cousin to Churchill Julius was Vicar for the Akaroa Diocese.
Whilst in Christchurch I visited "Rutherford's Den". It is a tourist attraction at The Arts Centre which is now located in the buildings that used to be Canterbury College later known as Canterbury University. Rutherford's Den consists of the cloakroom where Rutherford used to conduct his experiments and the surrounding rooms and lecture theatre. Ernest Rutherford was a world famous scientist who discovered the nuclear structure of the atom and was the first person to knowingly split it. It has been suggested that this claim should be to split the nucleus of an atom! He is pictured on the New Zealand $100 bill. Both Ernest Rutherford and George Julius obtained degrees at these premises and they both started in 1890. (post-script: July 2011, I have just discovered an article in Nature, International weekly Journal of Science, reference Nature 158,124 (27 July 1946) which states that George "attended classes with his contemporary and friend Ernest Rutherford.")
I also visited Riccarton Racetrack. I had no prior knowledge of it and had a look purely as a result of having seen a signpost to Riccarton Racetrack. I was surprised to find a barometer indicator on an old tote building reminiscent of the ones which were part of the Julius Totes. The tote house was occupied by a Veterinary company and an employee there knew that the building used to be the main tote house, that it had historical significance and that the old electro-mechanical Julius tote was still upstairs but not easily accessible. On further investigation I found that Julius tote installations were performed here in 1921 and 1935.
Riccarton Park old main tote house.
I informed Prof. Bob Doran of this system. He subsequently visited this site and documented his findings regarding the Julius tote machinery which was still present. Amongst his findings was a drawing which he photographed and is shown below.
Julius Poole and Gibson blueprint
I find this drawing of particular interest for two reasons. Firstly the fact that it is a blueprint. I recall there being a proliferation of blueprints in the AWA print room at North Ryde in Sydney in the early 1970s. This was a once common means of reproducing engineering drawings. Despite Blueprints becoming so common that the word became part of the English language, they now seem to have disappeared into antiquity as I have not seen any blueprints in decades. Secondly, the drawing was produced by Awdry Julius, George's son, for Julius Poole and Gibson.
Having mentioned the print room at AWA, I recall my first visit to this room to collect a drawing. You waited outside the room at a long counter with a large opening above it through which you could see the inside of the print room. Staff on the other side of the counter would attend to your requests for documents or accept documents to be stored. This opening had a shutter which I first thought was purely for securing this room. This I found a little odd as it secured the print room from the rest of the factory and other staff on the outside. It was a bit like a small shop front or canteen servery. As I waited to be served, my attention was drawn to a sign on the wall inside the print room. It was a set of instructions regarding the possibility of a fire. Evidently in the event of the fire alarm being triggered, the personnel in the print room only had seconds to exit the room before the fire system automatically closed doors and shutters and flooded the room with fire extinguishing gas! I wonder what occupational health and safety issues there would be with that nowadays. I suppose in those days these rooms contained the Knowledge Base for the organisation and this made it extremely important to preserve the contents. In addition this predated the widespread use of computer based drawing and document creation and storage and database systems with off site storage for backup.
I don't know anything about the abilities of Sir George Julius in model-making, but can certainly add something about the "Model City". It was built over a period, probably about 1937-39, at the opulent Rushcutters Bay home of the Julius family right on the waterfront. I think his chauffeur had a lot do with the construction. It was offered by Sir George as a Red Cross fund-raising display in 1940 and went on display at, I think, Grace Brothers in Sydney. It was later moved to the then Myer Emporium in Melbourne, being set up in the basement during 1941 It consisted of a plaster-of paris mountain-side built on transportable wood frame sectons and was about 13 metres long, 3 or 3.5 deep and about 3 high. It had an extensive Lionel "0" gauge layout with fiddle yards behind the scenes. Trains operated on a programmed sequence, as did various cranes, conveyors, barges, coalmines, etc, with a commentator describing the action. My father, the late A.M. Chalmers, was employed by Sir George ( but maybe the Red Cross - not sure) to manage, set up and operate the display with a small staff. I remember the maintenance technician was Ted Beckett and there were girl operators and a professional commentator - the programme ran for about 40 minutes. I still have my father's draft set-up and operating notes, also some large photos of parts of the layout.
I emailed with Bill in August 2008 and following is an extract from his reply providing additional information.
To add a little to my reply to John Shoebridge; I remember accompanying my father to Sir George's home right on the shore of Rushcutters Bay, probably in 1940. The home was quite large, of three levels, I think. The Model City was housed in a large room in a lower level - the memory is really vague on that, but I clearly remember being introduced to Sir George and a member of his staff, who was probably his driver/mechanic or whatever, and the impression on a nine-year old of the huge model. In fact, the plaster-of-paris mountain construction was painted in rather garish colours, as I remember.
The Powerhouse Museum in Sydney have the remnants of this model city.
The following is an extract from the book Julius Poole and Gibson The First Eighty Years:
In the early years of the practice George Julius, with the help of his sons, made great progress in constructing the model railway set which gradually grew to be a model city measuring 13 metres by 4 metres, and up to 3 metres high.
Many years later on the occasion of its exhibition in Melbourne, "The Argus" gave the following description (26 June, 1941):
"The model city is a perfect miniature township, with railways, lakes, a park, windmill and street lighting.
Behind the town is a mountain made of seven tons of plaster. The mountain is criss-crossed by railway lines and is full of tunnels. It has several deep gorges crossed by suspension bridges and is dotted with miniature engineering devices. There is an excavator digging soil from the hillside and depositing it in waiting trucks, a dredge scooping gravel up from the dock, a coal mine, complete with its own railway services and loading cranes, post cranes for loading timber and a mine from which iron ore is carried in buckets on a belt conveyor to an electric grab which deposits it in barges. There is also an iron foundry and a farmyard all to scale."
Lent to the Red Cross in 1941 to raise funds, the model city was exhibited in an annex to the toy department at Myer Emporium in Melbourne. The model city was insured for 10,000 pounds and received nationwide newspaper coverage. It was eventually presented to the Sydney Technical Museum.
Not sure if it is of interest, but I am Sir George Julius�s great grandson.
I have just taken delivery of the original lathe on which Sir George created the first totalisator prototypes, along with many cogs and wheels, which are presumably �left over bits� or spare parts.
I have only just started doing an initial assembly of the lathe, as I received it in parts, with no drawings or notes. So far so good.
Once I have it figured out, or at least as far as I can, I will send some photos.
Have not yet managed to determine the make of the lathe, however some of the gear and thread cutting accessories carry the name �Evans and Sons, London�.
My intention is restore it �gently�, so as not to lose the sense of age of the machine, but to hopefully get it working for display purposes.
It was originally a pedal powered machine, but has had an electric motor conversion at some stage. Sadly, the original pedals and flywheel are no longer with the machine, but I am going to do some net hunting to see if I can firstly determine what they would have looked like, and start the hunt for replacement parts. ��
Will keep you posted as the mysteries unfold.
Tony Shellshear visiting the Julius tote at the Eagle Farm Racing Museum April 2009, which was manufactured by his great grandfather's company Automatic Totalisators.
It is now March 2014 and Narelle and I have had a wonderful lunch at Tony and Cathy Shellshear's place. Tony is engaged in a rigorous project to return George Julius' lathe he mentions in the above email to its original condition. It has already undergone a major transformation to be in the condition shown in the following photograph. The lathe was manufactured by Evans and Sons of London in 1830.
George Julius' Evans and Sons Lathe
Tony also gave us a look over his extensive collection of George Julius memorabilia including his degrees, knighthood certificate and medal, slide rules, tools, documents, other awards and achievements, his induction document to the Racing Hall of Fame, membership and family documents and George�s lathe, as well as many photos. It is an astounding collection. I have presented images of medallions from Tony's collection in the Sir George Julius chapter of this website. Whilst on the subject of Tony Shellshear, I will mention that Awdry Julius who created the Julius Poole and Gibson blueprint drawing shown above is Tony's Grandfather.
These reunions are something that many outsiders do not comprehend. They wonder why it is that a group of people saw something so special about the company they worked for, the relationships they made whilst employed by that company and the work they performed there, that they make the effort to come to a reunion often travelling long distances or international to celebrate a company deceased for decades.
The 2008 ATL reunion Dinner
An email from Mike Bell, a long serving ATL projects manager captures the sentiment of these occasions.
I just wanted to say �thanks� on behalf of all the guys and girls (whether or not they could make it) for arranging the dinner last night � good food, good wine / beer and good company (well, mostly � right Ziz? :-) ). It�s a great tradition that you�ve established (and maintain) and long may it continue.
Best Wishes for a Merry Christmas and a great 2009 to you and the rest of the gang.
And the reply
Hi Mike,
Thanks, it's always good to catch up with everyone and share some merriment around this time of year.
A special thanks to those people that travel the long distances to attend, and I hope to see as many as possible of the gang again next year.
Till then, stay safe and well, have a Merry Christmas and all the best for the New Year.
The Church of St Peter Mancroft Norwich
In September of 2009 I visited Britain again. I did some flying in a Cirrus SR22 from Humberside airport near Hull to Manston in Kent pursuing another historical interest the Battle of Britain. I noticed that George Julius' home town Norwich was in the vicinity so I went to have a look at it. The photo is of The Church of St Peter Mancroft in the foreground and Norwich Castle in the background on the right hand side of the Church. I am presently reading A History of Norwich by Frank Meeres. It is said that Norwich has a pub for every day of the year and a church for every Sunday of the year. It is ironic that George invented the first automatic totalisator and came from Norwich known as a city of firsts.
Dermot Elworthy informed me that Archbishop Julius, George's father, started his career at St Giles in Norwich.
I visited the UK in 2010 again. I always used to think that the concept of Best Friend was a childhood concept. I am starting to think that it permeates throughout life. Whilst in London I spent several occasions with Charles Norrie, the northern hemisphere expert on George Julius and his totes. Charles has definitely become what I would call one of this 60 year old�s version of a best friend. Maybe the correct term is Soul Mates! We have been Internet acquaintances for many years and I have spent time with him during my antipodean visits to the UK for the last 3 years.
I had planned to do some flying in an SR22 again this year in the UK. I planned to fly from Humberside to Exeter to meet Dermot Elworthy who is George Julius� grand nephew. Dermot and I have been Internet friends for a long time and share many passions such as aviation, motorcycles and steam engines and of course Julius family and totalisator history. Dermot�s career was in mechanical design and development engineering with a change to corporate aviation when the company he worked for purchased its own aircraft. The aircraft I was hoping to fly had a faulty transponder, eliminating the possibility of flying under instrument flight rules and in controlled airspace. This left the possibility of doing any aviation in the aircraft dependent on visual flight conditions which did not exist during the period of time I had allotted to aviating. This resulted in two aborted attempts to fly to Gloucester to have the transponder repaired and to Exeter to meet Dermot.
Whilst spending time in Doncaster, waiting for suitable weather to fly out of Humberside, I visited Doncaster Racecourse. This Racecourse is where The Doncaster Cup is run and this is the oldest continuing regulated horse race in the world. I was there shortly after the St Leger Stakes had been run and witnessed a massive two story marquee being dismantled. We have set up tote facilities at Eagle Farm Racecourse in two story marquees during carnival events before however the sight of this behemoth made me pleased that we have not had to do something on such a huge scale.
After Doncaster we travelled to Edinburgh which I found an extremely impressive and historical city. I am not going to diverge into a travelogue of Edinburgh but try and keep some reference to the topic of this website. Whilst in Edinburgh I took photos related to two people who had a big impact on electronics engineering. John Napier the inventor of Logarithms who is interred in the graveyard of the Church of St Cuthbert, and the birthplace of Alexander Graham Bell, the man who invented the telephone. These two men are linked as the unit of measurement of gain or attenuation, the Decibel, named after Bell, incorporates logarithms in its calculation. This preservation of technology and engineering history is something not strongly practised in Australia.
Narelle, Brian, Dermot, Charles and Danny at the meeting at the Bridge House
Whilst in London I attended a meeting to determine if a Julius Society should be formed. It was held at The Bridge House at Little Venice. I eventually met Dermot here at last! I attempted to convey the message to the other attendees at the meeting who thought George Julius should have been recognised in Australia as an Australian Engineering hero and found it anomalous that we do not value these people. Professor Trevor Cole recognised this anomaly when he wrote of Julius We need to be aware of our engineering heroes. Similarly Prof. Martyn Webb wrote of Julius One can hardly believe that such a man could go almost unnoticed and unrecognised. Danny Hayton made a statment at the meeting that I found particularly poignant. The concept of what he said is that it is ironic, considering the amount of energy that goes into the history of the arts, and how comparatively little goes into engineering and technology history as it is the latter achievements that emancipated the human race sufficiently from the basic requirements of life to be able to engage in the former.
Whilst in the UK, I received an email from Prof. Bob Doran to inform me that he had found a website Exploring 20th Century London that indicated the Museum of London had an exhibit containing a part of the Harringay Julius tote that operated at the Harringay Greyhound Racing Track. I spent an afternoon in the London Museum with Charles Norrie and could not find any evidence of this exhibit. I eventually found a curator who knew of it, Jim Gledhill at The Department of History Collections Museum of London, who was very helpful and keen to show it to me. Unfortunately he was not available till after my departure home. I have included a link to this website in the link page of this website.
Whilst in Edingburgh I went looking for Powderhall Stadium where a Julius tote was installed in 1936. Another Julius tote was installed in Edinburgh in 1930 for the Greyhound Racing Association however I do not know where that one was installed. I discovered that the Stadium no longer exists. Bob Wilson from Leeds wrote in his contribution to the Growing Up in Broughton website:
In the 1940s, the stadium was the pride of Scottish greyhound racing. My gran lived within walking distance of this track, and I spent many a pleasant summer evening there on my annual visits.
The sport of greyhound racing thrived throughout Britain, in the 1940s, but in 1960 it was killed off by the arrival of the national TV service. No one wanted to go to a often cold, blustery dog track when they could sit at home and watch free TV, especially Coronation Street.
In 1992, the stadium was taken over by Eddie Ramsay, a nightclub owner, but in 1995 it went bankrupt. Its terraces were bulldozed for housing development.
In transit between London and Edinburgh, on the way up and back, I drove through Newcastle-Upon-Tyne. I contacted Brough Park Newcastle Greyhound Stadium where another Julius tote was installed in 1936. There was another Julius tote installation for the Greyhound Racing Association in Newcastle in 1931. I received a reply from Marjorie Jackson indicating that the system was no longer at the track and that it had probably been moved to another track in the 1960s, however no one at Brough Park knew where.
Bob Moran, a Sydney based engineer with an interest in totalisator history has built a Julius totalisator single adder interactive display module which provides a safe hands on experience to understand the workings of the shaft adder, odds calculator, odds relay, scanner and ticket issuing machine parts of the Julius tote. The unit is work in progress and will be fully enclosed when complete. He is also working on a 4 shaft adder Julius tote demonstration unit. I visited Bob in December 2010 at the premises of his company Precision Dynamics. He showed me his Julius Tote demonstration units. I find this inspirational work and it amazes me how devotees such as Bob invest so much in time and materials, in the interests of preserving history, with little probability of any return. Bob also showed me his Babbage Difference Engine 1 project which is taking shape. It is a sight to behold!
Bob Moran's Interactive Julius Tote Display
Bob sent me the following email on 30 August 2010.
Hello Brian,
Quite a few years have past since we last communicated, this is when I put together some of the Broadmeadow tote for the PHM, you kindly put me in contact with Neville Mitchell. Well things have gone the full circle again!! I am trying to retire from the business which I sold off a couple of months ago to someone with their own workshop etc and am now cleaning things up which has turned out to be quite an job. I still have the factory and machines which I need to finish the Babbage DE1 project. From the tote wreckage left over, I have worked out I have most pieces to build two four adder displays (ie 2 win and 2 place) and two single adder displays. The design drawings are finished and I have commenced making the framework which will use up material around the place. A lot of the framework and bits were lost when Allan transported it to his house plus the Newcastle Museum grabbed a lot of it. Hopefully these units will be small hands on interactive displays which will properly demonstrate the workings. The PHM machine was too big and posed safety and reliability issues, which should be easier to overcome with these units. The other day I contacted Neville Mitchell and Bob Doran to touch base and keep them informed. I feel you too would be interested in what I am up to.
Absolutely love your web site. For years I have been meaning to come up and look at the E/F Museum
Best Regards
Bob Moran
And an extract from another email on 31 August 2010.
It is not great news yet, but I am trying, will keep you informed. The tote was in my mind a very important milestone in data processing and proves somewhat that innovation is demand driven. The bits I have are too important and just can't be junked. ...
Yes I would like a copy of "Totalisator History in the Eagle Farm Racing Museum" whenever you get around to it, might help me get my head around some of the issues.
Thank you Brian you are a font of information, have a nice holiday and I will have to make it to Brisbane soon.
And an extract from another email on 15 October 2010.
Welcome back trust you had a great trip. Thank you for the photos very interesting and timely as I am trying to put together a modest display on computing before computers leading up to Babbage's printing of tables etc with DE1 and what calculating devices were available in the early 19th century. Napier and his logs figure greatly with htis, nice to have some background information on the man, wish I had a set of "Napier's Bones" anyway I have a 2' Gunter's scale and a Sector, then slide rules then some old mechanical calculators etc. (please not I am a mech engineer and not too good with the electronics your DVD was great and opened my eyes to a lot of computing issues)
Please see attached file of where I am at with the single adder interactive still WIP but very close now. The four module unit is on hold till I sort the single on out, ideas change all the time and I am finding the more manual I can make it the easier it is to understand.
Thanks again for your input.
And finally another email on 18 October 2010.
Dear Brian,
Thanks for the Tote encouragement and the great picture of Faraday, he is also on my hero list, it is amazing how many brilliant minds have enabled us to be where we are! Regarding what is happening here, with the interactive display, Bob Doran knows what I am up to in some detail as they are scrapping a tote in Palmerston North which I would love to get some parts from. As for other people, not many others know as I am still finishing a few things on the Tote and want to make sure I am happy with its performance before I say too much. Matthew was to visit last month but he is very busy. I am just forging on to set up a 'Discovery Shed' here at Precision Dynamics in Mona Vale, the tote is just one of the things I have that hopefully will make it an interesting place to visit. I have a window of opportunity here at the moment with an empty factory and plenty of junk to maybe do something for the community, I need to cover overheads but everything else will be voluntary. I welcome your interest in what I am doing and if you wish pass on information that is fine, just be aware the interactive is not finalised yet there may be changes and when it is I need to finish the four adder unit which needs to incorporate a grand total unit (some of the parts I need). Feedback and suggestions would be most welcome. If you are in Mona Vale in December that would be great timing to come and have a first hand look ! Tea and coffee are on all the time here. Hoping to see you in Dec.
Regards Bob
In March 2011 Narelle and I visited our elder son Paul in Perth. I took the opportunity to chase some totalisator history in the West.
Gloucester Park Perth
The first automatic totalisator in Australia was installed here at the Western Australian Trotting Association Gloucester Park in 1916. Another Julius Tote was installed for the WATA in 1929. The first floor level of this building was the Julius tote machine room. The slots below the runner numbers on the first floor provided a public view of the runner total counters installed in the machine room. The part of this building on the nearest side of the central tower displays runners 1 through 9 and the far side of the tower displays runners 10 through 18. The top row relates to the Win Pool and the bottom row the Place Pool. The nearest Place Pool runner total display windows relating to runners 1 through 9 have now been filled with some of the signs that identify the 1936 Inter Dominion Final Field. These signs have been placed on the building after the Julius Tote ceased operation. Automatic Totalisators invented the world's first odds computer in 1927 and after that year Julius totes displayed the odds instead of the runner totals. The central tower housed the pool total display and manually operated dividend display. The Club Management was very obliging and interested in the history of their tote and I was shown over the ex Julius Tote Machine rooms. This was not as straight forward as it sounds. In the case of the one in the photograph, as I have observed at other locations, there is no fixed staircase to this level. A metal retractable staircase has to be lowered by electric winch to gain access to the first floor. This photograph was taken in 2011 and the Julius Tote machinery is all long gone. The only remnant was a solder terminal block still attached to a wall with the stubs of removed cables still attached to it.
I was informed by a manager of Perth Racing that there is nothing left of the Julius totes at the West Australian Turf Club. The computer room and main tote at Belmont was demolished circa 1979 and the computer room remnants at Ascot were cleared out circa 1982. ATL (Automatic Totalisators Limited) finished at Belmont and Ascot in 1977.
A 1959 WA Report of a Royal Commission On Betting indicates that Automatic Totalisators operated a mobile totalisator at Pinjarra, Northam, York, Toodyay and Beverley. It states that Automatic Totalisators has approximately 80% of totalisator turnover in Australia and in Perth has systems at the three West Australian Turf Club metro tracks presumably Ascot, Belmont Park and Helena Vale. The Perth Racing manager informed me that Helena Vale racetrack closed in 1973. According to Wikipedia, Helena Vale was the original name for the area now called Midland where Paul now works as a software engineer. The Commission Report also indicates that as well as Gloucester Park Trots, Automatic Totalisators had a totalisator operation at Richmond Park Trots. This trotting track seems to have been in Freemantle. Mr. Fairburn was the General Manager of Operations at Automatic Totalisators at the time and in the Royal Commission Report he notes a decline to totaliastor turnover comparing 1959 with 1955 which affects the gallops more than the trots.
There is a link to the Royal Commission report mentioned above in the links page of this website. Additionally there is an extract relating to The Canning Greyhound Racing Association's Greyhound racing track at Cannington in the Tote Topics chapter of this web site. Select "Go to the index" at the bottom of this page and then select Tote Topics in the index and then scroll down to the Perth heading.
On the 3rd of January 2012 I received an interesting email from Tim Vickridge relating to George Julius and Fremantle.
I stumbled upon your excellent website on Sir George Julius and was fascinated by his incredible story. I do remember reading the Time magazine article on him and managed to obtain a copy.
I lived in Fremantle and our family bought the home from the Julius family in the early 1900s. My late mother told me a story that her mother had told her that Lady Julius had said that "George would tinker for hours out in the backyard working on a contraption with belts and pulleys"
I thought you might find that of interest.
On the 10th Tim wrote again, after I replied and asked if he knew of C.Y.O'Connor and his relationship to George Julius as well as infoming him that I had placed his email on this website. I also suggested I could show him the Julius Tote in the Eagle Farm Racing Museum. His response follows:
Hi Brian
I'm honoured to be included on such an informative website about a hugely influential man.
Richmond Raceway was a trotting track in East Fremantle.
Yes I am very aware of C.Y. O'Connor as he supposedly lived in the house before his daughter and George Julius bought it. The only conflicting story is that CY did not ever own a property and died with only a few assets having rented all his life. I find it difficult to believe, given his position and salary, that this is true. I'm told that he only lived in the house for a short period. There is a CY O'Connor pub in Piara Waters, south of the Fremantle.
Yes the article was Chris McConville's.
If I get to Brisbane I will definitely make contact, I'd love to see the Tote Machine.

I was wondering if anyone makes a light light source that uses a rechargeable battery or such type thing. Right now I am using a average sized shake flash light but I would like to cut down the weight if I can and can't find a small one.
Hi Brett,Do a Google search on "mini 2-LED hand crank"and you will find several places to to purchasethe following tiny, SUL hand cranked flashlight.I keep one clipped to my backpack.
There are some interesting solar/crank lights out there, but so far I have not jumped into the market.The lightcap is one that I have been intrigued by. At 9.7 oz for the water bottle / lantern combo, it sounds like a good idea but is still quite a bit heavier than my current headlamp with spare batteries and an aquafina bottle.http://www.sollight.com/products/lc300.cfmStill, the idea of not worrying about batteries appeals to me. Same with woodburning stoves, firesteels and using natural material as TP.Cant wait until petzl puts out a handcrank light....

The Syracuse University football team couldnt hold its own in a 59-3 beatdown by No. 2 Florida State last Saturday.
But Jay Bromley the senior captain and defensive tackle was the exception.
Bromley sacked Heisman candidate Jameiss Winston for a loss of seven yards, upping his season total to nine. He is tied for 12th in the nation and has the most sacks for an SU interior lineman since Kevin Mitchell in 1991. His 96 yards lost on sacks ranks second in the country.
I can play with anybody in the country. Im not worried about that, Bromley said. But its a team thing. If they put one guy on me, I feel like I can take on any one guy in the country. Ill just keep playing from there. I wasnt backing down from nobody, if youre 6-8, 500 (pounds).
Bromley was close to recording a second sack on Winston, but the freshman sensation escaped his grasp. It could have been Bromleys fourth two-sack game of the season, one of the others was against No. 7 Clemson.
Its something where I look back on it and maybe I should have slowed down and focused on grabbing him up, Bromley said. But a person that has 10 sacks on the season, they miss 30. So its all about effort and really just fighting your way to the ball. Thats what it comes down to.
The Orange, at 5-5 overall and 3-3 in the Atlantic Coast Conference, will host Pittsburgh (5-5, 2-4) at 12:30 p.m. Saturday. The winner will gain bowl eligibility.
Bromley said he hopes to top last years performance against the Panthers in which the SU defense anchored a 14-13 victory.
Pitt has lost 317 yards to sacks this season, which is last in the ACC. Quarterback Tom Savage has been sacked 37 times in 10 games.
It was a great game, a very low-scoring, defensive game, said Bromley of their last meeting. I know that defensive end Brandon Sharpe had four sacks that game, so well see what we can do about it that one. Its going to be a heck of a performance to follow.
Bromley, always seen as more of a run-stuffer, tallied just four sacks in his previous two years as the starter.
He has continued to pace SUs run defense this season, leading the team with 12 tackles behind the line of scrimmage. SU ranks 13th and 14th in the nation, respectively, with three sacks and 7� tackles for loss per game.
The Orange is also one of just three teams in the nation that has yet to allow a 100-yard rusher. Ohio State and Wisconsin are the others.
We were getting in a good flow before we ran into Florida State, Bromley said. Im pretty sure a lot of teams hit a little nick in their flow when they ran into Florida State. We cant feel too bad about it.
Bromley is also tied for 13th in the country and third in the ACC with three forced fumbles. He was named to Phil Steeles fourth-team midseason All-American squad and first-team All-ACC a few weeks ago.
I dont feel backlash from (Florida State), Bromley said. I know I can play with them and I feel like I did play with them decently, and we just didnt perform well as a team.
Bromley added: Hands down, from top to bottom, theyre the best O-line Ive come across since Ive been here. Kudos to them for being where they are and working hard to get there, but we work hard, too, and Im pretty sure they remember me, too.
SU is one of 27 teams in the nation to lose four games by 21 points or more this season.
They are the only team that has won its next game at least three times. A win over Pitt on Saturday make it 4-for-4 for the Orange.
Theyre strong individuals, first-year coach Scott Shafer said. We talk a lot about appreciating the game that we play and treating it with great respect. Respect the game. And to that respect, you have to be a strong person to get your butt knocked down and get back up and fight.
He added: If youve never played the game and never had your ass kicked, you dont get it and you dont respect it. And thats the part that our kids do respect.
Syracuse will be without several weapons on offense Saturday.
Listed as out on SUs Thursday injury report are: Jarrod West, SUs leading receiver in terms of yardage; Prince-Tyson Gulley, the teams leader in all-purpose yards; Brisly Estime, an emerging freshman who caught 13 passes in two starts before missing last Saturdays game at Florida State.
Starting defensive end Isaiah Johnson is also out.
For the second time this season, SUs game on Saturday will be broadcast by the ACC Network. It will air locally on WWTI (ABC).
SUs last game on the ACC Network was its 56-0 loss to Georgia Tech on Oct. 19.
Savage will be making his second career start in the Carrier Dome on Saturday.
He was under center as a freshman for Rutgers in 2009 and was sacked nine times in a 31-13 Orange victory.
First-year coach Scott Shafer was in his first season as SUs defensive coordinator under former coach Doug Marrone.
Savage eventually transferred to Arizona and didnt take a snap before transferring to Pitt after last season. The senior has averaged 233.5 yards per game to go with 18 touchdowns and seven interceptions.

I always wondered how you chose your pen name. I like how you came up with it! If you think yours is boring (which it isn't) you should read mine... although you may not want to. I thought it was cool!!
Author's Response: Oh, I did read yours! And its most certainly not boring! It was amusing! I meant to comment on it, but (please dont hurt me!) I forgot to review it like an idiot. Im sorry. Ill be sure to when Im done responding, kay? Thanks for reading mine, though! :D
Yah only she can p-Hey wait a minute!(glares at Fei for a short time)Ha Ha, very funny(laughs for real) Ok, now where were we, oh yes! Yes it is really the thought that counts! I am still looking forward to reading it still!(Turns to Alex and Shawn) sorry guys had to blame some one, right? Ok, well I would like to let you know, Fei, that I have updated my Second Ranger story, I think you will like it!
I salute you, my lady
Author's Response: *Does Elf salute thingy*And I you milord. Ha Ha! I got you! *Innocently glares back* Okay good, I was beginning to worry. I mean, there will we some suspense, a cliffhanger ending, a Vala, and some animal chasings. So (Turns to Alex, who is holding a mini chalk board in his hand, Fei: I | Dune: 0 is written on it.) Aha! Im in the lead. But will I be leading for long ? Awesome! Ill read it as soon as I can. *Does Elf salute thingy again* Peace!
It's going OK, I'll email you.
Author's Response: Awesome! Can't wait! :D
Nah, don't worry, Dune is fine! And hey, I can wait till you post the story so, don't worry if you can't put it up this week. (Smiles) and don't worry, I didn't catch the cold from you, I caught it from Shawn (feels tap on shoulder and turns head) um (swallows) did I say Shawn, I meant to say Alex. (feels someone staring at him and turns head) oh high Alex didn't see you there, um (Turns to face Fei) gotta run, speak with you soon!
Author's Response: Okay, good. I didnt want to keep typing it either. I dont even like typing my own penname! Whenever I say Dune, it reminds me of that Movie and those books I keep forgetting to put upstairs. Hmm that reminds me! Thanks, I didnt want to be rude or anything by saying that it might be a wait, I hate letting people down. Or saying No. Or keeping them waiting thats why I try to review as fast as possible; honestly, I feel terrible if I dont. This is going to be a stretch for me and I honestly dont think it will turn out to gut (hee hee, I love German). Im really sorry if it doesnt! But, its the thought that counts, right? (*Turns to Alex and Shawn who are still glaring at Dune* Hey, hey -- no picking on Dune today, thats my job!)
Yeah, I agree; Marilla Vanilla jokes would have been inevitable and annoying. Thanks for the humorous essay and for responding to the challenge.
Author's Response: No problem; it was fun! It made me really wonder why I choose Aredhel. So, thanks! Yikes! I hope I didnt start any Marilla Vanilla jokes by this. That would be terrible if people started calling me that. Marilla is just one of those names where whenever you hear it, you have to find the most atrocious way to ruin it by finding a rhyme to it. Milli Vanlli. Ew. Wait, isnt that a band?! *Pouts* Van gets a cool Elvish name and hes not even into Elves like me. Oh well, thanks again!
Wow, that's great. That 'Marilla Vanilla' thing reminds me of when I was little...my older sister would call me 'Lizardbreath' instead of 'Elizabeth' when she got mad at me. I hated it. Haha, great story!
Author's Response: *Laughs* (Me: [Whispering to Callers sister] So, Lizardbreath? Can I start calling her that? | Callers Sister: Um sure? *Grins evilly* Lizardbreath is only the beginning! *Whispers something in Feis ear* | Me: *Rolls around laughing* Thats hilarious! You got anymore embarrassing childhood stories?) My siblings would never call me something like that. We dont really get mad at each other. They only annoy/anger me by tickling me to no end. I hate *that*. Thanks so much for reading and reviewing!
Oh that sounds like a great idea, and I figured it out(Grins suspiciously) I won't say how I figured it would be an, Hurumeaglemmff!(clears throat) sorry had to cough! My name, Joshua, means God saves and its Elvish translation is, Eruedraith! Man why do elvish names have to be so long! Can't wait to read your story, I hope it is soon!
Namearie(I probably spelled that wrong)
Author's Response: Dont worry, I spell Namárië (Thats how you spell it) right but say it wrong. I say it like (Na-mar-eh) when its (Na-mar-ee-eh). Stupid Elvish is. Always get me. Actually, I pronounce nearly everything in Elvish wrong. Mostly names (so dont ask me to start calling you Eruedraith). Honestly, who pronounces Fëanor wrong? *Shakes head sadly* Thanks, I thought it was a good idea too! *Repress laugh, bites lip, and tries to look serious (unsuccessfully)* Coming down with a bit of a cold, Dune? I hope I didnt give mine to you. Okie, Ill try to type it out within the week. Im really gonna try to have it done by next weekend that is if School decides to be nice to me. I doubt it. I dont want to get your hopes up to high, it might ubersuck. But the idea is definitely creative, I can tell you that. I just cant write it out right. I hate that. Oh well. Ill try my best!
Interesting story. I still don't know how people like you and Aragorn keep track of all their different nicknames.
Author's Response: Oh, I cant keep track of *all* of my nicknames. I have more than Aragorn hands down. Mag and Mags are the most frequent and the easiest to remember. I mean; honestly, Magsaroni and Cheese? Thanks for reading and reviewing! How is TSR coming along? Im working on the RTM chapter. Lenores POV on Legolas healing -- that should get interesting. Thanks again!
I was wondering! I had thought it sounded like Aradhel, but I then I thought with the Ar- it was Numenoric.
Maeglin *is* such an ungrateful little jerk, isn't he? I really like Aradhel too. Some say Tolkien never made strong female characters, and I'm like, nuh-uh!!! Every one of his female characters was strong: Galadriel, Lobelia, Shelob, on and on... But Aradhel's still one of the best.
You didn't tell Maedhros about Marilla Vanilla, did you? And DON'T tell Ulmo; he'll never get over it. (I won't tell.)
My name, Catherine is supposed to be Greek too. I never looked up what "pure" is supposed to be in Elvish. (Anyone except a teacher who calls me that must die. *Realizes sink is on. Turns around to see Lord of Wates dripping over shoulder. Slam of fishy-breath: "Catherine? Catherine! HOHOHOHO!" Ugh.* )
Really, I always thought "Fei" was a very cool nickname because it's so fun to say "Hi Fei!"
Uh, hi Fei!!!
-Kitt : )
Author's Response: I know, right! Id slap Maeglin if I could. He has too much of his Daddy in him. *Shakes head sadly* Such a pity for Aredhel. No, I didnt tell Maedhros about Marilla Vanilla. We havent been talking to each other lately. Weve been fighting a lot. *Shrugs* Drama, drama, drama. Catherine = Manwathiel in Elvish. That sounds a lot better than Marilla. Actually, now that I think of it, Marilla kinda sounds Italian. Well, if you try to say it with an Italian accent. Which, I am terrible at. Ill get Van to say it with the accent. That should be amusing. (Oh, you know what Ulmo? *Scowls at the laughing Vala, and then exchanges a mischievous look with Kitt. Kitt tries unsuccessfully to repress a smile. Feis scowl turns into a smirk when she runs to closet down the hall. Ulmo shrugs in her absence then throws his head back and chuckles so hard that Kitt falls out of her chair. Fei now returns with a The Ghost Busters Vacuum-cleaner thingy. Suck on this Lord of the Waters! Fei exclaims, flipping the On switch. The Vala that once swallowed Cirdan is now swallowed by Feis Vacuum-cleaner thingy, but before he is gone completely he growls, Ill get my comeuppance on you, Marilla Vanilla and Catherine! Fei and Kitts eyes widen as they exchange a worried look*) Kitts fun to say, Hey Kitt! to Hey Kitt! Danke!!
Hey, Saving Private Ryan is one of my favorite movies, I just forgot to write it down! Yah that picture is the picture of the Rangers from the computer game Battle For Middle Earth II. It is my favorite computer game. I want to ask, um, what animal are you going to do? I just want to know, you don't have to tell me if you don't want to!
Author's Response: Oh yeah, I remember Battle for Middle-earth II. You just reminded me that I have yet to finish it. I got just past the Defending Dale part. Ugh, that level was hard. Im not used to playing with Dwarves I only play with Elves when it comes to those types of games. Right, I should play that again. Its one of my favorites too. Hmm getting a bit curious are we? Ill give you a hint. Thorondor *Grins evilly* Ill let that pester you.
So that is how you got your nickname! I was wondering about that! nice:)
Author's Response: Tee hee, thanks. I hoped *someone* would wonder why. I know Van (my brother) did. As a response to your author's response to my recent review, I need to do reach for the animal my character is turning into and what scene I want to poof them into. I want to make sure I get everything semi-right. Staying Book-verse is hard. And I know that Max was there all along, Sil just gets to be called Max again. So, YAY. Hey, I saw your Bio picture. Awesome! (I also remember this Fact from reading your bio) Fun Fact: Did you know that the answer Saving Private Ryan saved me in a Double Jeopardy in a Jeopardy game at school? None of the boys thought I knew the answer. Which, I totally proved them wrong. *Smirks*
