His obituary in the Los Angeles Times.called him "a key force" in obtaining the Los Angeles City Council's approval of a redevelopment plan in 1986. "It was Welsh", the article said, "who raised $150,000 in 1983 for a crucial feasibility study, and Welsh who called Mayor Tom Bradley and other community leaders together at a Brown Derby lunch to convince them that redevelopment could -- and should -- happen".

Personal life
Welsh was married to Lucinda Pennington.

Death
On February 27, 2000, Welsh died of an aortic aneurysm at his home in Thousand Oaks, California.

"The Quartermaster's Store" is a traditional song from England. It is Roud Folk Song Index no. 10508. The origins of both tune and words are uncertain. It was sung by British and ANZAC soldiers during World War I, but may be an older song of the prewar British regular army, or even have origins dating back to the English Civil War in the 17th century. In those World War I armies, the quartermaster's department was responsible for stores and supplies. The song lists its supposed characteristics, many of them slovenly or unhygienic. The song was known in the United States by the 1930s; it was sung by the Lincoln Battalion, a unit of American volunteers who fought on the republican side in the Spanish Civil War (1936-39). During World War II, the song was popular in the RAF as well as the Army. The song is also known as The Quartermaster Corps or The Quartermaster's Corps.

The song has gained wide popularity outside the military sphere, particularly as a campfire song in the Scouting and Guiding movements. The Barmy Army, supporters of the England cricket team, have been known to sing about England international cricketers Stuart Broad and his father Chris to the tune of "The Quartermaster's Store".

As is common in oral tradition, the words vary widely; and it being a list song, there have been many verses. The military versions are often earthier than those intended for children or teenagers. Two typical military verses are:

The song has been recorded several times:
Murgatroyd and Winterbottom (Tommy Handley and Ronald Frankau), British comedians, as a novelty song
1940sPete Seeger, American folksinger
1959?Les Cleveland and the D-Day Dodgers, New Zealand

The Coomanshof is a former hofje in Haarlem, Netherlands, on the Witte Heren straat.

It was named the "mercerie" or cramersneringhe after the local merchant's guild that existed from 1407. The small guild house dates from 1644. The hofje that grew around it is typical of the type of occupational hofjes such as the Brouwershofje that grew out of the local Brewer's guild. The patron saint of the merchants was Saint Nicholas, also the patron saint of Amsterdam. When the guilds were disbanded under Napoleon in 1798, the hofje was rented out until 1854 when it was sold. When the local head of the archives Adriaan Justus Enschedé bought the property in 1871, he demolished the eleven small hofje houses but kept the guild house as a folly for his garden. His main home was on the Zijlstraat. Enschede also found the original gable stone and had it reinstalled in 1871 above the doorway in the Witte Herenstraat.

Paradijsje
In 1950 Godfried Bomans began his Teisterbant club on the Grote Markt and he was able to rent this guild house and garden as a summer meeting place, which he dubbed "Het Paradijsje" (little paradise). In 1951 the artist Anton Heyboer moved in and lived there with his wife Elsa and they were later joined by the sculptor Piet van Heerden and his wife. In the summer months Heyboer hung lanterns in the branches of the orchard in the yard and served fish from IJmuiden to the Teisterbant club members. As an artist he was inspired by the old tiles on the walls and floor of the small guild house and motifs from the floor tiles can be seen in his etchings from this period.

In 1955 the garden with the small guild house was bought back from its owner by the city of Haarlem and it was restored in 1962. Today it serves as an artist's workshop and can be reached through the gate of the children's playground called "Paradijsje".

Saint Nicodemus of Mammola (or of Cirò) () (ca. 900—March 25, 990 AD) is venerated as a saint in Calabria. His exact place of birth is unknown but has been identified as Ypsicron (present-day Cirò). Nicodemus’ parents were named Theophanus and Pandia, and they entrusted their son's spiritual education to a priest named Galato (Galatone). Early on, Nicodemus was attracted to the monastic life, and wished to join the ascetics who had established themselves in the zone known as the Mercurion, on the cliffs of the Pollino in Calabria.

He was at first refused entry into the community by the austere abbot Saint Fantinus (Fantino), who did not think Nicodemus could endure the penances and mortifications, but eventually the abbot relented. The reputation for holiness and austerity of these Calabrian monks, whose number included Saint Nilus of Rossano (San Nilo di Rossano), was such that they received praise by Orestes, patriarch of Jerusalem.

Eventually, Nicodemus withdrew to Mount Cellerano (or Kellerano, today San Nicodemo) in the area known as Locride, where his fame attracted a new community of monks there. This community was threatened by Muslim raids, and so Nicodemus relocated to Gerace and thence to Mammola, where a monastery was later established. He died at an advanced age on March 25, 990.

Veneration

Miracles were reported at Nicodemus’ tomb, and he was considered a saint. In 1080, under the Normans, the small oratory on the site was transformed into a larger church. The monastery at Mammola was also restored and privileges and assets were granted to it. Nicodemus' relics were translated to a new church at Mammola in 1580. Nicodemus was proclaimed patron of the city in 1630, and the feast day was established as March 12.

The Snyder Memorial Museum and Creative Arts Center, formerly the Snyder House, at 1620 East Madison Avenue in Bastrop in Morehouse Parish in northern Louisiana, was built in 1929.  It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on October 18, 1996.  The listing included two contributing buildings.

It was built in 1929 as a one-story brown and beige brick residence for Charles and Esther Snyder, with a tiled roof.  According to its NRHP nomination, "The house is difficult to pigeonhole stylistically because it represents the eclecticism which characterized early twentieth architecture. It borrows from the "English cottage" style in its massing, but certain features give it an Italian or Mediterranean flavor. Although the Snyder House's many gables are not as steeply pitched as is typical of the "English cottage" style, its massing is perhaps best viewed within that tradition's penchant for a picturesque look. There are no less than eight gabled projections: two on the facade, one of which is an entrance porch, three on the eastern side elevation, two on the western side elevation, and a small one on the rear. Add to this a prominent front chimney (a favorite of the "English cottage" style). This "busy" massing and complex footprint belies the house's conventional central hall plan."

Puthenpeedika is a small south Indian village in the Thrissur district of the Indian state of  Kerala. It is located 17 km from the town of Thrissur. The towns of Anthikad, Chazhur and Peringottukara are also nearby.

History 
Puthenpeedika was an ancient marketplace, destroyed many years ago. The ancient name of Puthenpeedika is Irumbrayur.  This name is connected to the Chera dynasty. The Chera rulers Irumborai family and this place had some connection. Irumbrayur was the capital of the Irumborai dynasty, sited along the river 'Vann Puzhai', Vappuzha, which translates to "big river".  The trading port of Irumbrayur was located on this river. After the Great Flood in 1343, the river was diverted from the Vappuzha and lost its trade importance to the Irumbrayur. No evidence links the Chera kingdom and Irumrayur without that name.
