371 – March 2018 (2)
THE HAMPSHIRE CRICKET SOCIETY Patrons: John Woodcock Shaun Udal James Tomlinson NEWSLETTER No. 371 – MARCH 2018 (2) Wednesday 28 March 2018 – Meeting The society extends a warm welcome to this evening’s speaker, Adrian Aymes, on his return to the Society. He first addressed members in September 2000, during his benefit year. ADRIAN NIGEL AYMES was born in Southampton on 4 June 1964, and attended Bellemoor School. He came late to first-class cricket. He joined the Hampshire staff when 21 years of age in 1986 but did not gain a regular place until he finally displaced Bob Parks some four years later. He gave notice of what was to follow on his first-class debut against Surrey at The Oval in 1987. With Hampshire in trouble, he battled to 58 not out. Subsequently, no player in the first-class game during the 1990s sold his wicket more dearly. He was undefeated in a high proportion of his innings, which spoke volumes for his technique, temperament and sheer cussedness. With Robin Smith, he became the beating heart and consciousness of the Hampshire batting. If he took root and dug in, Hampshire were generally assured of a competitive total. All of his eight centuries were made in adversity. Of all Hampshire’s wicket-keepers, only his successor, Nic Pothas, has a higher batting average. He was a passionately proud professional, and never gave less than his best. He was fortunate to keep wicket to two of the genuinely great bowlers in the history of the game. At the start of his career, he stood back to the incomparable Malcolm Marshall; latterly, he kept to the unique Shane Warne. -

As most of these introductions were deliberate and documented in detail by the Acclimatisation Societies responsible for them, New Zealand bird invasions are often used as a model system to unravel what determines the outcome of introduction events, especially the role of propagule pressure. However, the credibility of these data was challenged recently, as different authors have reported different numbers of liberated birds. This discrepancy has several causes. Using introductions of Eurasian skylark (Alauda arvensis) and Common starling (Sturnus vulgaris) as examples, we show that the most important issue is that not all liberated birds were imported from overseas, and so import records underestimate the total propagule pressure for particular regions. -

Unsung Gold-Rush Hero to Have His Day
Thursday, 29 January 2009 Unsung gold-rush hero to have his day By Glenn Conway (/author/Glenn%20Conway) 0 0 Regions (/regions) > Central Otago (/regions/central-otago) The man many claim was the unsung hero and catalyst behind Otago's gold rush of the 1860s will be formally celebrated this year. The life and times of Edward Peters, better known as "Black Peter", are well documented, but his early finds of workable gold at Glenore, between Milton and Lawrence, have been largely overlooked by historians, with Australian Gabriel Read having become the popular choice for the man who sparked the gold rush. Mr Peters, who hailed from what is now known as Mumbai, India, struck gold at Glenore between 1858 and 1859 - a full two years before Read's famous find near Lawrence. But Glenore resident Alan Williams hopes to help debunk that myth in April, when a monument celebrating Black Peter is unveiled and a book by Mr Williams launched by Governor-General Anand Satyanand, New Zealand's first Governor-General of Indian ancestry. The celebrations will take place at the Mt Stuart Reserve and nearby Glenore river flat on Easter Glenore Manuka Trust chairman Alan Williams with Saturday, April 12. an image of pioneering gold miner Edward Peters, whose contribution to the Otago gold rush will be Mr Williams, who chairs the Glenore Manuka celebrated in April. Photo by Glenn Conway. Trust, has had an enduring fascination with Mr Peters, who, he believes, has not received anywhere near the credit and recognition he deserves. The trust was still organising events to be held around the occasion, but Mr Williams believed it would be a hugely historic day for the province. -
