Generally covered with a thick exoskeleton, crabs carry a single pair of claws, four pairs of legs and typically walk sideways. They are omnivores and feed primarily on algae. However, many of them prefer to have a combined diet from the plant and animal kingdom so as to aid in rapid growth and fitness.
Dr.Ralph C. Smedley (February 22, 1878  September 11, 1965), the founder of Toastmasters International, a non profit organizartion, was born in Waverly, Illinois, a city twenty miles southwest of Springfield. He remained in Illinois most of his youth. Toastmasters was the brainchild of Ralph C. Smedley. In 1903, after graduating from Wesleyan University in Bloomington, Illinois, Smedley took a job as director of education for the local Young Men's Christian Association.
This was during the reign of King Richard 11nd. of England, 1377 to 1399. The subsequent surname was recorded in London in 1693, when Thomas Smedley was a witness at St James church, Clerkenwell, but in England the surname is generally more widely recorded in Derbyshire than anywhere else.
