• Notes
• The popular legend is that our original American Edgett ancestor
was John Adsit of Lyme, Connecticut. Most of the information on him
comes from the book "Descendants of John Adsit of Lyme, Connecticut"
by Newman Ward Adsit. It claims John was "The ancestor of all Adsits
in North America. He arrived in Lynn [sic], Connecticut from England
about 1716, along with two brothers, who settled in Hartford, Ct. and
on Block Island." (As an aside, the wording may be misleading, or new
information may have been turned up since the first publication of the
book. A blurb for it on Heritage Creations dot com claims "John Adsit
lived in Wethersfield and Hartford before settling at Lyme,
Connecticut, ca. 1716. He married twice and was the father of nine
children. He died at Lyme in 1734.")
But Mr. Newman Adsit may have been a bit enthusiastic. The New England
Historic Genealogical Society states: "The earliest record we have
found of this family is the will of JOHN ADSIT of Lyme, CT probated
1734/35. [But see HT 4447 4 Oct. 1952 which claims that his father was
Samuel of Hartford, CT. Family information from TAG v.36 and notes at
So there's at least some confusion as to who might have arrived when
and where. But at any rate, our direct patrilineal ancestors in were
in Connecticut in the earliest part of the eighteenth century and
possibly in the seventeenth. Nice coincidence with the Herrmanns, too.
There's also some confusion over John Adsit's children. The New
England Historic Genealogical Society states: "JOHN ADSIT had two
wives, the first being Sarah, dau. of Henry and Sarah (Stone) Howard.
He m. 2nd Mary. She may have been Mary Griffin or Mary, dau. of Henry
and Sarah (Ames) Howard. [HT 9558, 20 Nov. 1948]." Did John marry
first one and then another daughter of Henry, each of whom had a
different mother named Sarah? Lordy! The reason it's interesting to
try and sort out the original children of John is that we are
descended from him twice.

FIRST HOWERTONS IN AMERICA, by Bryan R. Howerton
Howerton Heritage Newsletter, Spring 1996
We have not been able to positively identify the location in England
from which the first Howertons departed for the American colonies.
Several people, including myself and, most notably, Doris Walton of
Stillwater, Oklahoma have searched in England for Howerton roots.
Shropshire was the only area in which past residence of a significant
number of Howertons was found. In addition, Doris found records of a
group of Howardtons (including a John and a Thomas) in the
Northumberland area at about the time of the departure of our
ancestors. Oral tradition handed down among various American Howertons
variously attributes our origin to England, Wales, and Scotland (in
that order). The numerous claims that our first Howertons came from
England or Wales lends some support for the idea that they were a part
of the group found in Shropshire at that time. However, positive
identification of their home in England is still lacking.
Persistent family legend, among some Howerton lines, indicates that
three brothers arrived in America at about the same time. Search of
early colonial records fails to support the legend, unless the William
Howton who witnessed a deed on 28 October 1668 in Essex (Old)
Rappahannock County, Virgina could have been the third brother.

John Adsit and Mary. This John Adsit is supposedly the first Adsit in
America of whom there is any known record. He lived in Wethersfield
and Hartford, CT before locating at Lyme, CT about 1716. He had
supposedly come from Essex, England when a small lad. No record of
place or date of birth has been found, but his death is recorded as
Jan 1734/5. He first married Sarah Howard of
Wethersfield, Ct in 1653 and had three children. He secondly married
Mary and had 6 more children [Robert J. Adsit, "Adsit Family History",
c. 1960 (his address given as 588 Cullum ?St., Meadville, PA 16335,
page 34]. Adsits, it looks like they were concentrated in upstate NY
and Pennsylvania.

From the book Descendants of John Adsit of Lyme, Connecticut by NewmanWard Adsit. George is briefly mentioned in the will - "I have given or
paid portions to ye children I had by my former wife already yet
nevertheless my mind and meaning is that my said son John pay unto
George Ageet fiveshillings when he said John comes of age. (Ageet was
one form of spelling for Adsit)
George was the third son of John and Sarah Howard (first wife). All it
states in the book is that the firstchild was John (died 1712 at Block
Island and left an estate of 94 pounds which his father inherited as
next of kin, #2 Samuel, died 1712 at Hartford, Conn. and #3,George,
living in 1734. Mentioned in father's will.

Courses, by default, are not available to students until the faculty member decides to make them available. After the scheduled section is created and materials added to the course, faculty can make the course available by entering the course and following these steps:
Setting the availability is an immediate process (meaning the faculty member does not have to wait for the server to run in order for the command to be processed).
At the end of the semester, faculty do not need to reverse this process, as all NIU courses are automatically set to be "unavailable" two weeks after the end of the semester. Once a course is made unavailable, students lose all access to the course and are unable to see the course in their list of courses.
When a Blackboard course is available, it continues to appear on the course list for every student who was enrolled in the course. Many students complain that this is confusing, as their new course intermingles with old course titles. Additionally, any copyrighted materials need to be made unavailable to students at the completion of the term according to the rules of classroom fair use.
If your students can log into Blackboard but can't see your course, you may have forgotten to make the course "available". To make the course available:
Without these steps, students enrolled in your course cannot access the course.
Courses in Blackboard only need to be made available once. After the course is available, it will remain available until approximately 10 days after the end of the semester. If your course reverts to unavailable sooner than that, it is likely that it is a Shell and not a Course.
Shells are designed for development purposes only, so they do not remain available for more than a day. Students are not enrolled in a Shell, either. Check the Course ID - if it starts with SHELL, then it is indeed a Shell and not a Course.
To request a Course for teaching purposes, follow the steps available at http://blackboard.niu.edu/blackboard/start/request.shtml. Then, copy the materials and settings from the Shell to the Course by following the steps at http://blackboard.niu.edu/blackboard/build/migration/copy.shtml.

UMass Women's Basketball Falls To Richmond, 58-41
Jan. 13, 2002
Richmond, Va.- The University of Richmond defeated the University of Massachusetts, 58-41, in women's basketball action at Robins Arena this afternoon. The Minutewomen fall to 3-12 on the season and 1-3 in the Atlantic 10 Conference, while Richmond improves to 7-10 overall and 1-3 in conference play.
Richmond's Krystn Gull scored 10 unanswered points in the second half, including two consecutive three-pointers, to lead the Spiders to a come from behind win over the Minutewomen. She finished the game with 13 points, while teammate Ebony Tanner scored a game-high 16 points and 12 rebounds. The victory marked the first Atlantic 10 conference win for the Spiders.
The Minutewomen went 18 minutes with out scoring a field goal, going 6-for-33 in the second half for 22.8 percent shooting on the game. Richmond improved dramatically in the second half going 13-for-24 from the field and 4-for-10 from three-point range.
The Minutewomen took an 18-4 lead early in the game, but failed to score a field goal for the remainder of the first half. Richmond battled back from a 14 point deficit to enter halftime trailing by only three points. Richmond's Ebony Tanner scored seven unanswered points to put the Spider's back in contention, and Amber Goppert's five straight points to end the half left the Minutewomen limping into the lockeroom with a 23-20 lead. Junior Amber Sneed (Cincinnati, Ohio) led all Minutewomen scorers with eight points in the first half.
Sneed led the Minutewomen in scoring with a season-high 15 points, on 5-for-10 shooting from the field and 4-for-4 from the free throw line. Junior Jennifer Butler (Brooklyn, N.Y.) recorded her ninth double-double of the season with a 10 point, 15 rebound performance.

Man punched outside Camden pub dies
11:10 08 December 2012
A man who was assaulted outside a pub in Camden has died almost two weeks after the attack.
Police have named his as David Forbes, 42, from Dundee.
His next of kin have been informed and a post-mortem examination will be held in due course.
Mr Forbes was approached by a man outside The Rocket pub on Euston Road at around 2.25am on Sunday, November 25, police said.
In a statement Scotland Yard said witnesses saw the suspect punch Mr Forbes, causing him to fall to the ground and hit his head on the road. The suspect then walked off with a group of men and a woman towards Kings Cross.
The suspect is described as a white man, approximately 5ft 9ins and aged between 25 and 30. He is thought to have a muscular build with short dark hair, wearing a plain white t-shirt.
Mr Forbes was taken to hospital for treatment for a head injury and died yesterday.
An incident room has opened at Hendon under Detective Chief Inspector Andy Chalmers of the Homicide and Serious Crime Command.
He said: "I am appealing to anyone who may have seen this seemingly unprovoked attack or who knows the whereabouts of the suspect. I also wish to speak to anyone who may have seen the victim or suspect earlier in the evening."
Anyone with information call police on 020 8358 0100 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.

To the Editor:
I would like to take this opportunity to thank and acknowledge all the wonderful people who in some way, big or small, helped to make our football experience memorable Saturday during Hurley's semifinal game in Wausau, Wis.
A big thank you goes to Sharon Ofstad, food service director at Hurley K-12 School, for putting on and sponsoring morning breakfast for our team and the high school band. She was assisted by Natalie Patritto, Spanish teacher; Marcy Kusz from guidance; and our district administrator, Chris Patritto.
Thanks go out to the Iron County Sheriff's Department, the city of Hurley Police, the cities of Hurley and Montreal fire departments, along with volunteer fire departments from the townships of Anderson, Kimball, Oma, Saxon-Gurney in Wisconsin and Beacon Ambulance for a tremendous sendoff and welcome home escort.
To the many parents, fans and well-wishers who saluted and cheered us as we drove down Silver Street, and the huge crowd who gathered at the Iron County Courthouse with signs, posters and balloons — thank you.
On our welcome home, fans greeted us at several Hurley locations. You are all awesome.
Thanks are also owed to the Hurley Midget Booster Club and the Hurley Quarterback Club.
It's these supporters of Hurley football who, each and every year, take time to make our program special. Coach Scott Erickson always says it's a community team.
Our players were overwhelmed by the outpouring of support shown. It is something they will never forget.
Finally, thanks to the many alumni who were in attendance. Folks from Wausau, Stevens Point, Green Bay, Milwaukee and Appleton, Wis ., were there to root on the orange and black. Your loyalties are not forgotten.
On behalf of Coach Erickson, our staff and team, we say thank you for making this experience one we will long remember.
Hurley fans are simply the best.
Greg Rigoni
Assistant football coach

Morgan Spurlock stars in WVBully-Free PSA
The American Civil Liberties Union of West Virginia (ACLU of WV) and Fairness West Virginia (Fairness WV) proudly presents a new Public Service Announcement (PSA) in hopes to increase public education about the dangerous reality of bullying in West Virginia. The PSA, which is the capstone of "WV Bully Free," is narrated by West Virginia filmmaker Morgan Spurlock (Supersize Me, Where in The World is Osama bin Laden) and recounts the real life experience of Matthew, a student from St. Albans, West Virginia.
Matthew's story is shocking but not uncommon. He like many youth was the victim of bullying based on his sexual orientation. According to a 2009 school climate survey conducted by the Gay Lesbian Straight Education Network (GLSEN), two out of three students felt unsafe because of their sexual orientation. Yet until this school year the documentation of bullying based on sexual orientation was non-existent.
"Fairness West Virginia is so proud to stand shoulder to shoulder with the ACLU of West Virginia to loudly say to all children, parents, and educators of this state, bullying in our schools, on our playgrounds, and in our communities, is not acceptable anymore, for any reason including that which has been so viciously directed towards these kids who are or are perceived to be gay," said Fairness West Virginia Board President Dr. Coy Flowers. "All children, straight or gay, deserve to achieve an education safe from harm and free from bullying."
"With the passage of a new school board policy last December which allows for the documentation of bullying based on sexual orientation, we can now begin to honestly address the reality of LGBT bullying," said ACLU of WV Executive Director Brenda Green. "Every student has the right to feel safe at school."
The ACLU of West Virginia and Fairness would like to extend special thanks to the PSA's production team, which includes Jon Matthews (writer, director), and producers, Karen McIntyre, Paige Hill, and Maddy Yasner. Additional thanks go to Michael Lipton and Tristram Lozaw for producing the music.
10-22 Monday Memo: Fairness WV's Conference
For the week of October 22nd the three things you need to know are all about Fairness WV's annual conference on November 10th at the Charleston Civic Center.
First thing you should know is that bullying is not the only experience of teenagers that struggle with their orientation or identity. Homelessness, suicide, substance abuse, and family rejection are common experiences for young adults finding themselves. Learn about these increased risk factors during an all conference panel featuring prevention experts and youth leaders.
Second thing you should know is that student's who form support networks and gay-straight alliances (GSA) make a powerful difference in building resiliency and making their schools safer. High school GSA leaders and faculty advisers lead a breakout session about how these groups can make a difference.
Third thing you should know is that the early registration ends this Friday. If you want to learn more about how to plan to make a difference, register today!

In April of 2003 the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) of the United States Department of Justice awarded the Louisiana Attorney General's Office a grant which enabled the Attorney General's Office to establish the Louisiana ICAC Task Force. The Louisiana ICAC Task Force in an interagency, multi-jurisdictional task force whose purpose is to share information, resources and expertise in the investigation, prosecution and deterrence of online sexual exploitation of children. The Louisiana Task Force is part of a cooperative nationwide network of ICAC Task Forces that are dedicated to protecting children in the online environment.
The Attorney General's Office heads up the task force and incorporated the task force into its already existing High Technology Crime Unit. The Attorney General assigned a prosecutor, an investigator and a computer forensic examiner to work full time on the task force. Additionally, there are currently over eighty federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies across the state of Louisiana who assigned agents to the task force.
Louisiana, like all other states, has an ever increasing problem with regard to the sexual exploitation of children. Children's trusting natures have always made them vulnerable to victimization. However the Internet, while bringing a whole world of information to Louisiana children, has also brought with it an emerging and fast growing new medium in which pedophiles can ply their crimes and perversions. With the increasing number of children online, today's predators can easily find and exploit them.
The Mission of the Louisiana ICAC Task Force is to:

During the 2012 Olympic Games, then-17-year-old Missy Franklin took the swimming world by storm. At the London Olympics, Franklin won four gold medals and one bronze, making her the most decorated female swimmer of the 2012 games.
Likewise, American Katie Ledecky dominated the 800-meter freestyle, winning Olympic gold by a margin larger than four seconds. At the time, Ledecky was just 15 years old. Now 19 and 17 respectively, the girls have continued to dominate on the world scene, winning medals and setting world records.
In today's athletic climate, when swimmers compete until they are much older, the success of Franklin and Ledecky at such a young age seems to be an anomaly. A quick look at swimming history, though, shows that Franklin is not the first to take the swimming world by storm — she's simply the most recent. In winning Olympic gold as a teenager, Franklin has joined a long list of elite American swimmers who won multiple medals during their teen years.
Here's a quick look at some of those athletes:
Originally from Dayton, Ohio, Charles Daniels arrived at the 1904 Olympic Games in St. Louis at just 19 years old. By the time he left the Games, he'd amassed a total of five Olympic medals — three gold, a silver and a bronze. In 1908, Daniels returned to the Olympic Games as a 23-year-old and won two more Olympic medals. Daniels was a freestyle swimmer, and his Olympic medals were earned in events ranging from 50 yards to 440 yards.
Mark Spitz is best remembered for his gold-medal haul at the 1972 Olympic Games, but Spitz also won medals as an 18-year-old in 1968. In Mexico City, Spitz was a member of the 4x100- and 4x200-meter freestyle relays that won gold. He added a silver medal in the 100-meter butterfly and a bronze medal in the 100-meter freestyle. In 1972, he went on to win a then-record seven gold medals.
Susie Atwood was 19 when she competed at the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich. At the '72 Games, Atwood earned a silver medal in the 200-meter backstroke and a bronze medal in the 100-meter backstroke. The Munich Olympics marked the only year she competed in the Games.
Like Atwood, 15-year-old Melissa Belote also swam the backstroke events at the 1972 Olympic Games. Belote left Munich with three Olympic gold medals, which came in the 100 backstroke, 200 backstroke and 4x100-meter medley relay, and she broke the world record in the 200 backstroke. Belote returned to the 1976 Olympic Games, though she did not medal there. She retired from swimming in 1979.
Shirley Babashoff is the third female teenager on the list who competed at the 1972 Olympic Games. At 15, Babashoff won a gold medal in the 4x100 freestyle relay and she won silver medals in the 100- and 200-meter freestyle events. Still a teenager in 1976, Babashoff returned to the Olympic Games at 19 to win a second freestyle relay gold medal. That year, she also added silver medals in the 200-, 400- and 800-meter freestyle events.
Mary T. Meagher arrived at the 1984 Olympic Games as a 19-year-old, and she left as a three-time Olympic gold medalist. Meagher won the 100- and 200-meter butterfly and she was a member of gold-medal medley relay team. Four years later, Meagher won a bronze in the 200 butterfly at the 1988 Olympic Games. Some believe that she would have won medals as a 15-year-old in Moscow, too, had the U.S. not boycotted the 1980 Olympic Games. In 1981, Meagher set world records in the butterfly events that stood for nearly 20 years.
In 1984, Pablo Morales was just 19 years old. At the Los Angeles Olympic Games, Morales won a gold medal in the 4x100 medley relay, and he added silvers in the 100 and 200 butterfly events. Four years later, Morales returned to the Games and took home two additional gold medals.
Janet Evans won her first Olympic medals in 1988 at 17. There, she won gold medals in the 400 and 800 freestyles and the 400-meter individual medley. In 1992, Evans swam at the Olympic Games again and picked up two more medals — gold in the 800 freestyle and silver in the 400 freestyle. During her career, Evans set three world records that would stand for more than 15 years each.
Amanda Beard arrived at the 1996 Olympic Games as a smiling 14-year-old. The breaststroke swimmer left with two individual silver medals in the 100- and 200-meter breaststrokes. She also was part of the 4x100 medley relay that won gold. Four years later, Beard returned to the Olympic Games at 18 and won bronze in the 200 breaststroke. She would go on to swim in two more Olympic Games, racking up one more gold and two more silver medals in the process.
Michael Phelps officially cemented himself as the greatest swimmer in history as a 27-year-old, but he began his journey as a teenager. At the 2000 Olympic Games, Phelps qualified to swim the 200 butterfly at 15. That year, he finished fifth and failed to medal. Four years later, Phelps returned to the Olympic Games in Athens, where, at 19, he won six gold medals and two bronze medals.
In 2008, Phelps went on to win his historic eight gold medals at 23, and in 2012 he claimed three gold and two silver medals. In total, he's won 22 Olympic medals, which makes him the most decorated Olympic athlete in history.

This small city on the north bank of Lake Rea faces the Slieve Aughty Mountains. It grew from a Norman fortress and a Carmelite priory, built around 1300 by Richard de Burgo and now in ruins. General Saint-Ruth, killed at the battle of Aughim, apparently was buried under the priory tower. A section of one of the doors of the medieval city is still standing, on the edge of the cathedral close.

Tourism Officials Reassure Travellers About Egypt's Reputation as a Holiday Destination
by Savitha C Muppala on June 4, 2012 at 9:21 PM General Health News - G J E 4
Egyptian tourism authorities have begun infusing confidence among travellers about the future of the country as a holiday destination.
Extremists within the Freedom and Justice Party (FJP), which possesses a parliamentary majority and has strong links to the Islamist Muslim Brotherhood, have demanded a ban on the sale of alcohol across the country, while calls have also been made for Egypt's beaches to be segregated by sex and for revealing swimwear to be outlawed.
AdvertisementLast week Mohamed Morsi FJP received a quarter of the votes in the country's first presidential elections since the overthrow of former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, and a run-off for the presidency between Morsi and Ahmed Shafik, who was a prime minister under Mubarak, is due to take place on June 16 and 17.t is now feared that the election of Morsi could see such policies put in place, but representatives from the country's tourism industry said any changes would face strong opposition.
"These calls are just rhetoric, it is an attempt to win votes. These people can say and promise what they want but they will not deliver anything," the Sydney Morning Herald quoted Omayma El Husseini, Director of the Egyptian Tourist Office, as saying.
She added that economic concerns would make such changes disastrous and suggested that an "intellectual conflict" was developing in the country.Tourism is very important to Egypt - it is the second highest contributor to GDP," she said. "The tourism industry and the liberal Muslims in Egypt will not let them screw it up."
At least one in 10 people in Egypt earn their living through tourism, and the country has already witnessed a sharp fall in visitors since the last year's revolution. According to official figures, foreign arrivals fell by around a quarter in 2011, compared with the previous year, and have fallen by a further 10 per cent so far in 2012.t is estimated that any restrictions on the sale of alcohol and sunbathing could have an even more dramatic impact, particularly in beach resorts of Egypt such as the Sharm El Sheikh.

Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, beloved as one of the world's most popular dance companies, will travel to Jacksonville's Times-Union Center's Moran Theater on Tuesday, February 25, 2014 at 7:30 p.m. for one performance only! The 25th season since the passing of legendary founder Alvin Ailey is led by Artistic Director Robert Battle who continues to expand the Company's diverse repertory with a wide range of important choreographic voices. Exciting premieres and new productions give Ailey's 30 extraordinary dancers even more ways to inspire audiences.
Repertory Favorites:
Home (2011)
Bold hip-hop choreographer Rennie Harris, who worked alongside Judith Jamison and Robert Battle to create Love Stories for the company in 2004, choreographed this work set to a soul-lifting score of gospel house music. The work is inspired by stories submitted to the "Fight HIV Your Way" contest of people living with or affected by HIV, an initiative of Bristol-Myers Squibb.
Petite Mort (1991/ Ailey Company Premiere- 2012)
This is a theatrical, visually surprising work showcasing the sensuality, humor and technique of six couples who intermingle with fencing foils and elaborate ball gowns in unforgettable duels. Set to Mozart's popular Piano Concerto in A Major – Adagio, & Piano Concerto in C Major – Andante, it is first work by renowned European choreographer Jiří Kylián in the Ailey repertory.
Strange Humors (1998)
A thrillingly intense duet set to a propulsive score for strings and African drum by John Mackey. This riveting piece, choreographed by Robert Battle, pits two men against each other in surprising sequences that ignite with aggression and discord, mischievousness and humor, as the relationship between the two dancers builds to an exciting crescendo.
Revelations (1960) American classic acclaimed as a must‐see for all, Alvin Ailey's signature masterpiece is a tribute to his heritage and genius. Using African-American religious music--spirituals--this suite fervently explores the places of deepest grief and holiest joy in the soul.
Audience members are also invited to join in the dance during their next New York City visit with a complimentary class for first time visitors of the Ailey Extension using a ticket stub from your Jacksonville Ailey performance. The Ailey Extension's popular program of 80 weekly "real classes for real people" has been enjoyed by over 73,000 at Ailey's building The Joan Weill Center for Dance, New York's largest building dedicated to dance. Each "Ticket to Dance" special offer is good for one year from the performance date for first time students, and when purchasing a 10-class card for classes for returning students.
Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater inspires all in a universal celebration of the human spirit using the African-American cultural experience and the American modern dance tradition.

Track List
Album Notes
Full performer name: Pretty Things/Yardbirds Blues Band.
Pretty Things/Yardbirds Blues Band includes: Phil May, Dick Taylor, Jim McCarty.
Personnel: Phil May (vocals, percussion); Dick Taylor (guitar, slide guitar); Studebaker John (slide guitar, harp); Richard Hite (electric bass); Jim McCarty (drums, percussion).
Audio Mixers: Mike Konopka; George Paulus.
Liner Note Author: George Paulus.
Recording information: Seagrape Recording Studio, Chicago (01/16/1991-01/23/1991).
Photographers: Craig Moore; Jimmy Appudurai-Chua.
This set, attributed to the Pretty Things-Yardbird Blues Band, is really more Pretty Things (thanks to strong vocal work by Phil May and some striking lead guitar from Dick Taylor, the two cornerstones of the Pretty Things) than the Yardbirds (although former Yardbirds drummer Jim McCarty is on hand), and it doesn't add much to the legacy of either band, really, although it is a strikingly good outing. The tracks collected here originated when May and Taylor teamed up with McCarty and guitarist and blue harpist Studebaker John and bassist Richard Hite for two George Paulus-produced albums recorded in Chicago in 1991. The sound is very good, and these weren't throwaway sessions, with the blended band tackling classic songs like "Spoonful," "You Can't Judge a Book by the Cover," "Time Is on My Side" (Taylor was briefly a guitarist for the Rolling Stones early in that group's career), "Ain't Got You," and "Chain of Fools," among others. Again, nothing here adds much to the legacy of either the Pretty Things or the Yardbirds, but fans of either or both bands will undoubtedly love this interesting curio. ~ Steve Leggett

In the first round of the 2014 NFL Draft, which kicked off on Thursday night at Radio City Music Hall in New York City, the Tennessee Titans selected University of Michigan standout offensive tackle Taylor Lewan. The 6-foot-8-inch, 315-pound native of Cave Creek, Arizona could have entered the professional draft following the 2012 college football season, but instead returned to Ann Arbor and competed as a fifth-year senior. He finished his Wolverine career with 48 starts at left tackle out of 50 games played.
Along with Auburn's Greg Robinson and Texas A&M's Jake Matthews, Lewan was considered one of the top offensive line prospects in this year's pro draft, and was a candidate to join one of numerous NFL teams. The St. Louis Rams selected Robinson with the second pick in the first round, while the Atlanta Falcons chose Matthews with the sixth pick, and the Titans used the 11th pick on Lewan. After the final season of a stellar collegiate career, The Sporting News made Lewan a First-Team All-American, while Sports Illustrated and the Associated Press tapped him as a Second-Team All-American.
In the professional ranks, Lewan will take his place on the offensive line with the Titans as one of the main protectors of incumbent starting quarterback Jake Locker. Other former U-M players that are available in the 2014 NFL draft include wide receivers Jeremy Gallon and Drew Dileo, running back Fitzgerald Toussaint, and defensive back Courtney Avery. The school's official athletic website, MGoBlue.com, has an extensive list of current Wolverines in the NFL.
The second and third rounds of the draft will take place on Friday and rounds four through seven will happen on Saturday. Each day's action will be televised on both the NFL Network and ESPN.

The tree is delightful! I LOVE the kitties too! Cats and Christmas trees may not be the best pairing - but the kitties are so cute when they are sniffing and messing around with them. That is until the whole thing comes down --- like when it actually happended to me. But if it's between the tree and the cats --- the tree is outta here! :)

Erin, you did such a good job! All the little details are so fun and playful (like your cats, I'm guessing) and it definitely screams you from what I've seen from all your posts so far. I wouldn't say your tree is inadequate at all compared to the others you've featured, but it surely stands out because the turquoise you used is so bold. I love it, though! :)
It seems so fitting that you would have a gorgeous Siamese (at least I'm pretty sure) cat with turquoise eyes! Merry Christmas!

Tax Free Weekend in Myrtle Beach
In many states it has become common practice to grant a tax free weekend towards the end of summer, and this is the case in South Carolina. This year's weekend will be August 7 - 9, 2015, the first full weekend of the month, which is the perfect timing for back to school shopping! If you're enjoying a Myrtle Beach vacation at one of the Vacation Myrtle Beach hotels during this tax free weekend, you'll want to have an idea of some of the best places to make your purchases on what has become the busiest shopping weekend of the summer.
Not every item is exempt from tax during this period but the legislation lays out several categories of items that are, like clothing, clothing accessories, footwear, bed linens, pillows, pillow cases, school supplies and computers.
There are a number of shopping malls along the Grand Strand where you can find shops and stores that cater for either a complete cross section or a good proportion of the tax exempt items.
Here are a few of the main shopping areas in Myrtle Beach:
• Barefoot Landing is located in North Myrtle Beach at 4898 Hwy. 17 South, and has over 100 specialty shops and stores. The mall is particularly good for apparel, accessories, shoes and household linens. Barefoot is located close to Ocean Creek Resort and Beach Cove Resort.
• Tanger Outlets - This is where you'll find a large collection of factory outlet stores such as Kate Spade New York, Michael Kors, Talbots, American Eagle Outfitters and J. Crew Factory. There are two Tanger Outlets in Myrtle Beach, one on Hwy. 17 on the way to North Myrtle Beach and the other on Hwy. 501 about 3 miles from the coast. Shops at each vary, so be sure to check out their stores list to see which has the shops you are looking for. The Tanger on Hwy. 17 is located close to Sea Watch Resort. The Tanger on Hwy. 501 is easiest to get to from hotel BLUE, Captains Quarters and the Palace Resort.
• Coastal Grand Mall is located near the airport and not far from Hwy. 501. More of a traditional mall, Coastal Grand has a variety of stores like Express, PacSun, Bed Bath & Beyond, The Children's Place and Buckle as well as a large food court to curb your hunger during your shopping trip. Coastal Grand Mall is located just a short drive from Captain's Quarters Resort and hotel BLUE.
• Broadway at the Beach is one of the shopping districts in Myrtle Beach that will be busy over the tax free weekend. As well as the many apparel stores and footwear shops look out for MAXii Electronics and for XCell Wireless Technology for Laptops and Notebooks. The Palms Resort is located only a short drive away from Broadway at the Beach.
• The Market Common is located immediately next to the Myrtle Beach Airport. This is probably a good shopping district to try if you wish to avoid the crowds and want to grab a good bite to eat at one of their delicious restaurants. Here you will find stores like Ivy & Leo, CityMac, Chico's and White House | Black Market. It is also close to the southern Myrtle Beach hotels, namely: Landmark Resort, hotel BLUE, Captains Quarter's Resort, Crown Reef Resort and the Palace Resort.
Make sure you also check out the Myrtle Beach discounts you can get with the VMB Card you will get when checking in at any VMB resort, but make sure to check with the shop manager if you're doubling up on tax free and VMB Card discounts to make sure they'll all apply.
Happy Shopping!

College Hockey:Benik scores twice for St. Cloud State in romp over regional top seed Notre Dame
TOLEDO, Ohio — The PairWise Rankings provided little certainty for St. Cloud State last weekend leading up to Selection Sunday. But now that they're in the NCAA tournament, the Huskies are showing how certain they are that they belong.
St. Cloud State used contributions from all over its lineup in a 5-1 rout of Notre Dame in the first Midwest Regional semifinal at Huntington Center Saturday afternoon.
2013 NCAA Midwest Regional
Follow all of our coverage from Toledo at Regional Central
NCAA tournament page, with bracket
All that, considering a week ago it looked like the volatile PairWise Rankings might very well leave the Huskies behind.
"I think when we got that news that we were going to make it to the tournament after we were having some scares," Ben Hanowski said. "Some things weren't going our way, with some of the games that we needed to go this way or that way. When we got in, guys were extremely excited and ready to go."
And instead of being tied down by the opposition — as the Huskies were a week ago in their 3-1 loss to Wisconsin in the WCHA Final Five semifinals — this week Bob Motzko thought his team was much more opportunistic.
"We were relaxed," Motzko said. "That's what I liked about our hockey game. I think we were a little uptight last week in our league championships. We talked about being relaxed and not nervous."
Notre Dame had most of the small crowd on its side, but whatever momentum that gave it (if any at all) was extinguished when Hanowski scored 11:32 in to give the Huskies an early lead.
Almost immediately, Notre Dame thought it had responded, but Anders Lee's goal 30 seconds later was ruled a kick-in and waved off.
Notre Dame didn't follow up on that, instead allowing the Huskies to take over from there.
St Cloud State didn't pick up any big chances on either of its two power plays in the first period, but the third time was the charm when Mario Lucia's tripping penalty led to a Benik power-play goal.
Benik scored the first of his two goals from the doorstep at 9:28 of the second to start a second-period barrage in which the Huskies scored three times on seven shots.
There weren't a lot of chances, but the Huskies took advantage of nearly every one. Thorson took a drop pass from Brooks Bertsch and buried his 11th goal of the year at 13:35, then Jonny Brodzinski finished a tic-tac-toe play from Jimmy Murray 78 seconds later at 14:53.
"We did a good job of getting pucks and bodies in front of the net," Hanowski said.
The four-goal barrage chased Irish goaltender Steven Summerhays from the game after two periods. The usually-formidable Summerhays gave way to senior Mike Johnson after saving just 14 shots. Johnson had four saves in the final 20 minutes.
"I thought they did a really good job of clogging up the neutral zone," Notre Dame coach Jeff Jackson said. "And we turned pucks over. When you do that, generally you're going to have a few chances against, and they took advantage of a couple of them. It was really a result of their offensive transition and doing a good job of clogging up the middle."
Notre Dame fought back with a Mike Voran short-handed shot over the shoulder of Ryan Faragher (17 saves) from the left circle at 7:44 of the third, but Benik's second goal of the afternoon, from the doorstep again, removed all doubt at 11:07.
"You don't expect that," Motzko said of the big goal margin. "The biggest thing was that we just wanted to play a good hockey game. It's been a couple of years since we've been on this stage. We were one game away from the Frozen Four three years ago. We've been in this position a few times since I've been here. We just wanted to make sure we were on our toes and aggressive and not playing nervous."

The new Tom Cruise actioner Jack Reacher is by no means a great movie, but it's a lot of fun. Sometimes bordering on the ridiculous, Jack Reacher reminded me of those over-the-top 80s action movies complete with zippy one-liners, a larger-than-life action hero, and plenty of bad guys getting blown away.
There was a certain poetry to the 80s action movie. Action Heroes didn't have to deal with pesky laws or a slow and inefficient legal system back then. Indeed, Action Heroes gave audiences the sweet satisfaction of a little vigilante justice (ie, evil villains usually got their comeuppance at the end of a very big gun).
This "retro actioner" style is exactly what is so fun about Jack Reacher. That's right, no weighty morality plays or philosophical musings bludgeon the thin plot of this thrilling pic, just lots of things gettin' blowed up.
Now if you looked at the rest of the film, like the fact that diminutive Cruise is playing a character originally meant to be 6'5 and 250 pounds, things kind of fall apart. But the shear audacity of Cruise trying to play an action hero of this caliber (80s style) is ballsy. This is a role better suited to the Sylvester Stallone's and Arnold Schwarzenegger's of the world, and it certainly stretched believability more than once when Cruise (as Reacher) took down bigger and rougher dudes with his bare hands.
Then there was the dialogue. Zippy one-liners aside, even the filler dialogue was too ridiculous to be ignored or excused. Jack Reacher got the better of everyone he met, physically and verbally, and that meant a movie that became tedious to listen to after a short while.
The story itself is a decent crime thriller, in which an ex-military guy is set up for a crime he didn't commit. There was an eerie (and quite unintentional) relevance to the first scene, in which a lone gunman begins shooting random people in a park. The man accused of the crime refuses to confess, and instead writes only three words: Get Jack Reacher.
Enter one of the largest and most over-the-top action heroes I've seen for a good two decades. Jack Reacher is a retired military cop who stops at nothing to find the truth and bring justice (his own kind, of course) to those in need. When his work is done, he disappears into the night with only a snappy one-liner to remember him by.
Based on a novel by Lee Child, Jack Reacher was a fun movie for all those reasons America loved the ridiculous action movies having their heyday in the 80s. As a modern movie critic, however, I must say that Jack Reacher isn't much more than a decently fun movie without a lot of merit. It's certainly worth a watch if there's nothing better out in the theaters, or it's a slow night, or if you're a huge fan of said actioners from yesteryear.

Here's a modern 21st century twist on an old practice. Iowa pastor Brent Girouex is accused of having sex with teen boys as young as 14-years-old to cure them of homosexuality, reports states. He is presently charged with 60 counts of "suspicion of sexual exploitation by a counselor or therapist."

Lemon Juice: Hasidic Scumbag Extra-Ordinaire
Posted by Native NYker in lemon juice, Nechemya Weberman, orthodox jews, pedophilia on November 30, 2012
Meet Lemon Juice of Brooklyn, NY. He is Hasidim worshiper presently accused of snapping a shot of a 17-year-old victim in court during trial investigating pedophilia at the hands of Prominent Orthodox leader Nechemya Weberman. All in an attempt at intimidating and hindering the witness in a case where suspected acts have already been identified.
Sound like a holy man and devout worshiper to you?
'To each their own' has been our general rule when it comes to religion. We ain't regressing back to it ourselves but far be it from us to tell others how to interpret a book written by men.
But we can say that we have always disliked those who hide behind their religion and purport a self-righteous pious stance.
This act, to us, is right up there with politicos who tout a Family Values stance while they do the do in bathroom stalls and/or demand their mistresses abort the product of their indiscretion.
Religious fervor, as with Family Values, comes to pass being deeply based in bullshit. But to each their own.
Juice however is a whole-nother level of scum.

New 35mm print!
Introduced by Regina Scruggs, member of Houston Film Critics Society and Broadcast Film Critics Association
"A damning portrait of human nature gone sour, Sweet Smell of Success is dominated by Burt Lancaster as black-hearted Broadway columnist J. J. Hunsecker, parsing out small gossip items to sycophantic press agent Sidney Falco (Tony Curtis), who in turn uses such information to his unscrupulous advantage. Obsessed to extremes with controlling his own sister's romantic life, Lancaster's Hunsecker is a towering, teetering monster of Shakespearean proportions."

Eclipse IDE: Get Ubuntu AppMenu And HUD Support
By default, the popular Eclipse IDE does not support the Ubuntu AppMenu or HUD. The reason for this is that Eclipse has been blacklisted so it wouldn't use the AppMenu around the time of Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat because it didn't work back then.Now Eclipse does work with the AppMenu, however, there are some minor glitches like some menu shortcuts not being displayed (although they do work). If this isn't a problem for you, here's a quick way to whitelist Eclipse so it can make use of Ubuntu's Appmenu and HUD.Below you can see Eclipse IDE with global menu and HUD support running in Ubuntu 13.04:HUD and AppMenu support for Eclipse IDE in UbuntuThe ideal solution would be to rebuilt AppMenu from source with Eclipse whitelisted by default, but since that's considered complicated by most users, here's an easier solution.The instructions below should work with any Ubuntu version. 1. To get Ubuntu AppMenu (global menu) and HUD support for Eclipse IDE, we'll have to whitelist it so we'll hve to modify the GTK2 libappmenu.so file.

Photographers' Documentaries Debut at Sundance Film Festival
The Sundance Film Festival, the 11-day festival of independent films, kicks off today in Park City, Utah, with a roster that includes documentaries by two photographers-turned-filmmakers.
"The Queen of Versailles," a documentary by Lauren Greenfield, which will debut on the opening night of the Festival, has already been touted as a must-see at the Festival. In the film, Greenfield, whose 2006 documentary "Thin" also premiered at Sundance, documented a time-share developer and his wife as they attempt to build the biggest house in America, and then struggle in the economic downturn. The subject of the film, David A. Siegel, has already brought legal action—not about the movie, but about the wording of the press release for the film, which claimed his timeshare business had "collapsed."
Also debuting at Sundance, though not included in the competition for festival prizes, is "About Face: The Supermodels, Then and Now," by Timothy Greenfield-Sanders. Greenfield-Sanders expanded a piece he shot for Vanity Fair, shooting video interviews with former supermodels Jerry Hall, Carmen Dell'Orefice, Christy Turlington, Paulina Porizkova, Beverly Johnson and others, who discuss the issue of age in the beauty industry.
The trailer shows that all the former models still look pretty damned good. Yet Rossellini, for one, laughs that she's no longer invited to A list parties; her daughter is.

Two days after his on-stage outburst at the iHeartRadio festival made headlines, Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong has announced he will undergo treatment for substance abuse.
The band broke the news Sunday evening on their Facebook page, posting a message that read:
"Billie Joe is seeking treatment for substance abuse. We would like everyone to know that our set was not cut short by Clear Channel and to apologize to those we offended at the iHeartRadio Festival in Las Vegas. We regretfully must postpone some of our upcoming promotional appearances."
At press time, it's not clear just what appearances will be scrapped in support of the band's ¡Uno! album (out Tuesday), or if Armstrong's treatment will effect Green Day's just-announced tour , which is set to kick off in November. A rep for the band could not be reached for comment by MTV News.
Armstrong launched into a rant during Green Day's Friday-night performance at iHeartRadio after being told that the band needed to wrap up their set, shouting "I'm not f—ing Justin Bieber, you motherf—–s. You've got to be f—ing joking … I got one minute left." Green Day then smashed their instruments before departing the stage.
And earlier this month, Green Day were also forced to cancel a concert in Italy after Armstrong was hospitalized. His bandmates would subsequently tell MTV News that he had "severe dehydration," though he recovered in time to perform at the 2012 MTV Video Music Awards.

Gaussian noise with different SNR levels are usually used in research works to simulate a realistic environment. How can researchers guarantee that Gaussian noise can simulate the reality of a System?

Gaussian is a very good assumption for every process or system that's subject to the Central Limit Theorem. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_limit_theorem
What this means is that when gaussian random variables are added, the result is gaussian (so you can apply similar statistics after the addition as were before), and besides that, when any random variables (that have finite variance, so Cauchy r.v. does not apply) are added, they tend to become more gaussian in their p.d.f. as you add 'em up.
What's also very cool about the "normalized" gaussian function, $e^{-\pi t^2}$ is that its Fourier transform is exactly the same: $$\mathcal{F}\left\{e^{-\pi t^2}\right\}=e^{-\pi f^2}$$ that sometimes makes the math fun and easy. Regarding the gaussian p.d.f., that means the corresponding characteristic function is also gaussian. And when you add random variables, you convolve their p.d.f.'s and that means you multiply their characteristic functions. When you multiply two gaussians, what then do you get?
As pointed out in other answers, the Central Limit Theorem is one reason why Gaussian noise is so important as a model. One other reason that hasn't been explicitly mentioned and that I would like to point out is the fact that Gaussian noise is completely described by second order statistics, which are relatively easy to measure. E.g., if you have a univariate distribution and if it is Gaussian, then you know everything you can ever know about it by knowing (measuring) its mean (first order) and its variance (second order). There are no higher order statistics, which is good because they are much harder to measure reliably. This fact is of course no justification for using a Gaussian model, but it is a very handy property if we think that a Gaussian model is justified.
A realistic environment is created by characterizing the noise, and then using a distribution or simulation with that characterization (or as close an approximation as can be used.). If an accurate characterization of the system's noise turns out to be Gaussian, then the researcher is good to go.
In the event that one does not have a good characterization (nor even know the number of possible noise and error sources), a Gaussian distribution is the limit of the sum of a large number of unknown (but bounded?) noise sources, so might be a reasonable guess. But that's only a guess, so beware trusting the simulation as being the same as reality. (An unbounded noise source, "fat tail" or "Black Swan" event, can easily have reality do something never seen in a simulation that uses only Gaussian noise sources. Thus, no guarantee for the research work.)
They cannot guarantee that it is an accurate reflection of all systems. In fact, though it is a decent approximation of many systems we know that there are many systems that it doesn't accurately reflect at all.
So why do we use gaussian noise? Two reasons. First, because it does accurately reflect many systems. Second, because it is very easy to deal with mathematically, making it an attractive model to use.
In my experience in audio, I find that Gaussian noise is an excellent model of the time domain values of environmental background noise. In audio, the noise is most often colored, but the density is still well described by a Gaussian model.
When you get into specific noises, like keyboard clicks, or engine noises, often there are non-Gaussian components, and so other models need to be used. But for high level general background noise, Gaussian is a great model.
As the other people have answered, the central limit theorem plays a role here.

Last holiday season, matryoshka dolls adorned everything: jewelry, sweaters, tabletops...you get the idea. This year, we're predicting that these Ninja Nesting Dolls ($18) will pick up where the fad left off. After all, you can't get much more hipster than ninjas hiding...inside one another...? Or something like that, right?
