Description | The Frost School of Music, one of two schools established in 1926 when the University of Miami was founded, is one of the largest and best music schools located in a private university in the U.S., and one of the most comprehensive in all of higher education. The naming gift from Dr. Phillip and Patricia Frost was one of the historic highlights in the life of the School. Building on its foundation as a conservatory of music, the Frost School of Music continues to offer premiere performance experiences for instrumentalists and vocalists including an annual Spring residency with The Cleveland Orchestra. The Frost School provides numerous master classes with noted guest artists and composers, and a wide spectrum of degree offerings for virtually every area of musical study and research. Its faculty has pioneered new curricula including the groundbreaking Frost Experiential Music Curriculum, and was the first in the nation to offer professionally accredited bachelor's and master's degrees in Music Business and Music Engineering Technology. The Frost School was also among the first to offer degrees in Studio Music and Jazz, Music Therapy, and Accompanying and Chamber Music and is now the year-round home of the Henry Mancini Institute and the Bruce Hornsby Creative American Music Program. New Graduate degrees beginning in 2010 include a J.D./M.M. in Music Business offered jointly with the University of Miami School of Law, and a M.A. in Arts Presenting which trains students how to profitably manage performing arts venues and festivals. In addition, the Frost School of Music was the first in a major university to develop a student-run label, 'Cane Records, and a publishing company, Category Five. The School's innovative programs, combined with its traditional areas of concentration, offer its students one of the widest choices of career programs of any music school in the nation. |

For every person is counted in a population Hated nor loved accepted nor faded Like a flower in a patch Dished out in a bunch or one single alone A life be saved symbolizes love Even if no one intends to Like a flower gave shows care Multiple people enjoying the beautiful weather with friends or alone Like a flower in the summer Can shine just as well during night or day A sad loved one passes away Having a room full of people with sympathy or not Like a flower for sorrow The forget-me-not handed out for love Left forgotten on the street with help or left to die Like a flower in the winter Gardens wither away We rest in peace spending an eternity in a wooden cage Buried or cremeted Like a flower in a cemetery What lays on top be with us life to death Just like the flowers

'Argo' gets SAG vote. 'Hansel and Gretel' top weak box office.
[January 28, 2013]
'Argo' gets SAG vote. 'Hansel and Gretel' top weak box office.
Jan 28, 2013 (Los Angeles Times - McClatchy-Tribune Information Services via COMTEX) -- After the coffee. Before the beignets and gumbo.
The Skinny: About half the TV industry is in Miami for a programming convention, and the other half is in New Orleans for some football game. Either way, they are warm and dry. Monday's headlines include analysis of the Screen Actors Guild Awards and a recap of the weekend box office.
Daily Dose: The Dodgers and Time Warner Cable are finally announcing their new TV partnership today, but this won't be a one-day story. Besides Angelenos being worried about what another sports channel will mean for their wallets, Padres fans are going to be mad at Time Warner Cable for having billions of dollars to spend on the Dodgers while refusing to cut a deal with Fox Sports to carry Padres games on its systems in San Diego.
"Argo" unstoppable. The rescue drama "Argo" took home the top trophy from the Screen Actors Guild Awards on Sunday. Other big winners included Daniel Day-Lewis, who was named best male actor in a leading role for his work in "Lincoln," and Jennifer Lawrence for her performance in "Silver Linings Playbook." On the TV side, "Modern Family" and "Downton Abbey" took home the prizes for top ensembles in comedy and drama series, respectively. A look at what it all may mean for the Oscars from the Los Angeles Times, Variety and the Hollywood Reporter.
No golden bread crumbs. "Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters" finished first at the box office but there probably wasn't a ton of celebrating going on at Paramount Pictures. Though the approximately $19 million "Hansel and Gretel" made easily topped everyone else, it was less than what the studio and other industry forecasters had projected. Flopping right out of the gate were "Parker" and "Movie 43." As for returning movies, "Silver Linings Playbook" had another strong weekend, as did "Zero Dark Thirty." Box-office recaps from the Los Angeles Times and Movie City News.
Meet me in Miami. If you're a big-shot TV executive, you're probably in Miami this week (before heading to New Orleans for the Super Bowl) for the National Assn. of Television Program Executives convention. This is where a lot of daytime TV shows and reruns are bought and sold. The convention, once known for huge parties and lots of excess, has become a much smaller and duller affair. Mark Cuban is this year's keynote speaker, so at least it won't be totally boring. A look at this year's NATPE and the event's 50-year history from Variety.
Welcome to the big game. Besides the usual suspects advertising in this year's Super Bowl (Budweiser, Pepsi and Coke), there will be several newcomers betting that spending about $4 million on one commercial no one will remember three days later is the way to go. According to the Wall Street Journal, rookie advertisers include Gildan Activewear and SodaStream, an Israeli company that makes soda machines for the home. Also buying a spot in the game is BlackBerry parent Research In Motion for its latest phone. I hope it's good because I need an upgrade and I don't want to get an iPhone.
If they don't read it maybe they'll watch it. NBC is having no problem finding small-town newspapers willing to turn their newsrooms into reality shows. The New York Times says more than 150 such papers have applied to be considered for the potential show. Let me give NBC a tip: Most folks who toil in print have faces and bodies made for radio. I'm, of course, an exception.
Open for business. Because we all know there is a tremendous shortage of talent agents in Hollywood, former ICM head Jeff Berg is opening a new shop. Called Resolution, Berg is setting up offices in Century City. Doesn't he have enough money to coast by now More on Berg's new business from Deadline Hollywood.
Inside the Los Angeles Times: Viacom Chief Executive Philippe Dauman took a pay cut last year, but don't feel too bad -- he still made over $30 million.

R.L. Richardson Biography
Lorenzo traveled the 12 miles from St. James to New Madrid, Missouri, where Confederate forces had landed, along with six other young men from his county to join Cpt. Bankhead's Tennessee Flying Artillery on 31 July 1861. Two of the boys who joined that day were his close neighbors Andrew and Marion OLIVER, whose brother in law he would later become.
He was with the battery when it moved to Columbus, KY and is shown on the muster roll of 31 December 1861. He was almost certainly present during the fighting at New Madrid, MO in February-March 1862.
The family stories about Lorenzo state that he was wounded and this probably took place during the Shiloh campaign. On his Texas Confederate Pension Application he states "I was captured by the enemy at Corinth, Mississippi. As I now remember in 1863 (this would have to have been in 1862). I was in hospital there at the time of capture. Held by the enemy for many months, was turned out of prison at Alton, IL but never recovered."
L.R. Richardson along with Andrew OLIVER and many others are listed in the report ob absentees without leave from 1st Brigade, 1st Division, 1st Corps, Army of the Mississippi dated 24 June 1862.
Lorenzo's claim to have been captured while in hospital and to have eventually been sent to Alton, IL can not, at this time, be substantiated by U.S. government prisoner of war records. These records are incomplete and the record of his incarceration may have been lost.
In an affidavit for his pension, a prewar friend, James E. GULLION of Co. E, 1st Missouri Infantry Regiment states that he and Lorenzo were released in 1864 on the Mississippi River. They were reunited in Red River County, Texas sometime after the turn of the century.
Lorenzo's exact date of return to Mississippi County is uncertain. He made a claim for 4 months labor 1863-64 in William A. SWEANEY's probate record which would have put him back in the county about September 1863.
After his release he, and his friend James GULLION were inducted into the Enrolled Missouri Militia Co. H, 79th Regiment. This was mandatory service and they had no choice except to go back to prison or go into hiding. The E.M.M. was a state organization not recognized by the Federal government and not considered Federal service. It was non unlike the "minutemen" in that they remained at home until needed. They were called up in August 1864 for the emergency arising from General Sterling Price's raid into Missouri and relieved of duty 28 November 1864
For almost 20 years after the war Lorenzo continued to live in Mississippi County. He married Andrew OLIVER's sister Elizabeth on 18 February 1869. They had three children, Charlotte (Lottie)who would marry John S. HILL, James, and Lewellen Tennessee Voila (Dora) who would marry Robert S. WEDDLE.
The family removed to Red River County, Texas in 1883 and settled near Midway. The county tax records for the period show him for the first time in 1884 with virtually no property worth taxing. He continued to be quite poor in all the tax records that I have located. His grand-daughter Julia Weddle SZENASI claimed that he was addicted to opium as a result of his wound.
Elizabeth died 15 March 1894.
R.L. Richardson is listed as one of the founding members of United Confederate Veterans Camp #656 John C. Burks in Clarksville, TX. He received a pension from the state #32774.
Paap or Grandpaap, as he was known to his family, died of Brights Disease on 8 May 1918 while living with his daughter Lottie and her husband in Detroit, TX. He was buried in Bluff Cemetery near that town next to his wife, his son in law Robert S. WEDDLE was buried to his left in the 1920's.

Intel, UCSB make hybrid Si-laser chip advance
the breakthrough device
By 2010, there should be multi-terabit communication speed inside chips. Computers of all kinds will be far more powerful and it will be far easier, cheaper and faster to integrate multiple chips, cores and computer systems for more effective massively parallel processing.
Researchers at Intel and the University of California, Santa Barbara have made what they say is a major breakthrough in making hybrid silicon lasers that they suggest could have a huge impact on chip-to chip communication and on optical communications networks. The researchers caution that commercializing the laser chip could take till the end of the decade.
Concept of a future integrated terabit silicon optical transmitter containing 25 hybrid silicon lasers, each emitting at a different wavelength, coupled into 25 silicon modulators, all multiplexed together into one output fiber.
The teams indicate bonding the silicon and InP-based laser chips can be achieved at relatively low temperatures and with acceptable and cost effective manufacturing techniques. They suggest the device could handle data rates of between 20Gbit/s to 40Gbit/s, up from today's 10Gbit/s. John Bowers, director of the multidisciplinary optical switching technology center at UC-Santa Barbara, who is involved in the research, says dozens or hundreds of lasers could be integrated on to a single chip.
For a few dollars apiece, such chips could transmit data at 100 times the speed of laser-based communications equipment, called optical transceivers, that typically cost several thousand dollars. The Intel-Santa Barbara work proves that it is possible to make complete photonic devices using standard chip-making machinery, although not entirely out of silicon. "There has always been this final hurdle," said Mario Paniccia, director of the Photonics Technology Lab at Intel. "We have now come up with a solution that optimizes both sides."
In the past it has proved impossible to couple standard silicon with the exotic materials that emit light when electrically charged. But the university team supplied a low-temperature bonding technique that does not melt the silicon circuitry. The approach uses an electrically charged oxygen gas to create a layer of oxide just 25 atoms thick on each material. When heated and pressed together, the oxide layer fuses the two materials into a single chip that conducts information both through wires and on beams of reflected light.

The Outerbridge Crossing is a cantilever bridge which spans the Arthur Kill. The "Outerbridge", as it is commonly known, connects Perth Amboy, New Jersey, with the New York City borough of Staten Island and carries NY 440 and NJ 440, each road ending at the respective state border. The Outerbridge Crossing is one of three bridges connecting New Jersey with Staten Island, with the Bayonne Bridge (which also carries NJ 440 and NY 440) in Bayonne and the Goethals Bridge in Elizabeth being the other two.
Description and history[edit]
The bridge was named for Eugenius Harvey Outerbridge, the first chairman of the then-Port of New York Authority and a resident of Staten Island.[1][4][5] Rather than call it the "Outerbridge Bridge", the span was labeled a "crossing", but many New Yorkers and others mistakenly assume the name comes from the fact that it is the most remote bridge in New York City and the southernmost crossing in New York state.[5][6]
The bridge is of a steel cantilever construction, designed by John Alexander Low Waddell and built under the auspices of the Port of New York Authority, now the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which currently operates it.[5] It opened simultaneously with the Goethals Bridge on June 29, 1928.[7] Both spans have similar designs. Neither bridge saw high traffic counts until the opening of the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge in 1964. Traffic counts on both bridges were also depressed due to the effects of the Great Depression and World War II.
In recent years, the bridge has undergone numerous repair jobs as a result of the high volume of traffic that crosses the bridge each day. On October 11, 2013, the Port Authority announced the completion of the bridge's repavement project.[8]
Tolls and traffic[edit]
The Outerbridge Crossing carried 32,438,000 vehicles (both directions) in 2006, or approximately 90,000 each day. Tolls are collected in the eastbound direction only.
In 2003, the Port Authority raised the speed limit for the three inner E-ZPass lanes at the toll plaza from 15 to 25 miles per hour (25 to 40 km/h), separating these lanes from the rest of the eight-lane toll plaza by a barrier.[9] Two years later, the tollbooths adjacent to the 25 mph E-ZPass lanes were removed and overhead gantries were installed with electronic tag readers to permit E-ZPass vehicles to travel at 45 miles per hour (70 km/h) in special high-speed lanes.[10] Motorists using the high-speed E-ZPass lanes cannot use Exit 1 to Page Avenue, which is located immediately after the toll plaza.
As of December 7, 2014, the cash tolls going from New Jersey to New York are $14 for cars and motorcycles; there is no toll for passenger vehicles going from New York to New Jersey. E-ZPass users are charged $9.75 for cars and $8.75 for motorcycles during off-peak hours (outside of 6–10 a.m. and 4–8 p.m. on the weekdays; and outside of 11 a.m.–9 p.m. on the weekends) and $11.75 for cars and $10.75 for motorcycles during peak hours (6–10 a.m. and 4–8 p.m. on the weekdays; and 11 a.m.–9 p.m. on the weekends).

The court cases include divorces and disputed estates. This collection is being published as images become available.
Sumter County, Alabama, was created on Dec. 18, 1832 from the former Choctaw Indian territory. Court Records have been kept since 1840. The Circuit court has jurisdiction in cases of more than $5,000.00 but less than $15,000.00. The records were created as a permanent copy of the court's proceedings.
You can browse through images in this collection by visiting the browse page for Alabama, Sumter County Ci...it Court Files, 1840-1950. |
Record Content
The records generally contain the following information:
- Names of interested parties
- Date of court proceeding or transaction
- Details of the case
- Amount of monies exchanged or paid
- Names of witnesses
How to Use the Record
To begin your search it is helpful to know:
- Name
- Identifying information such as approximate court date or residence
Search the Collection
To search this collection:
⇒ Select the "Browse" link in the initial search page
⇒ Select the "County" category
⇒ Select the "Record Type, Date Range and Volume" category which takes you to the images
Look at each image comparing the information with what you already know about your ancestors to determine if the image relates to them. You may need to look at several images and compare the information about the individuals listed in those images to your ancestors to make this determination. Keep in mind:
- There may be more than one person in the records with the same name.
- You may not be sure of your own ancestor's name.
- Your ancestor may have used different names or variations of their name throughout their life.
Using the Information
When you have located your ancestor's record, carefully evaluate each piece of information given. Download a copy of the record, or extract the genealogical information needed. These pieces of information may give you new biographical details. Add this new information to your records of each family. The information may also lead you to other records about your ancestors. For example use the date and locality to search for census and church records.
Tips to Keep in Mind
- Compile the entries for every person who has the same surname as the deceased; this is especially helpful in rural areas or if the surname is unusual.
- Continue to search the records to identify children, siblings, parents, and other relatives who may have been in the same county or nearby. This can help you identify other generations of your family or even the second marriage of a parent. Repeat this process for each new generation you identify.
- When looking for a person who had a common name, look at all the entries for the name before deciding which is correct.
- Earlier records may not contain as much information as the records created after 1900.
- There is also some variation in the information given from one record to another record.
- Witnesses in court cases may be close relatives.
Unable to Find Your Ancestor?
- Check for variant spellings of the surnames.
- Check for an index. There are often indexes at the beginning of each volume. Local historical and genealogical groups also compile indexes to local records.
- Search the indexes and records of nearby counties.
