He has also been declared a preseason All-American by many various publications. In preseason predictions for California, many analysts have named California's secondary a major strength, largely because of <mask>.When asked to name his four most important teammates, California linebacker Worrell Williams included <mask> as the only defensive player. He said, "So what's that tell you? He's going to shut down one side of the field when he's out there." The NFL Draft Scout, a CBS Sports affiliate, rated <mask> 15th of its Top 32 seniors for the 2009 season, and wrote, "His straight-line speed, agility, reliable open-field tackling and natural return skills would be earning significantly more attention from the national media if he played in the Big Ten or SEC." The NFL Draft Scout assessed him as the best cornerback out of the 226 available for the 2010 NFL Draft and projected him as a first or second round selection.

title: Henry Cockton

texts: <mask> (7 December 1807 – 26 June 1853) was an English novelist, remembered primarily for The Life and Adventures of Valentine Vox, the Ventriloquist (1839–40). <mask> was born in George Yard, Shoreditch, London, the third of eight children of William and <mask>. His father may have been a weaver. Nothing is known about his childhood or education; all that can be ascertained about his early life is that he spent some years employed in a house of business in Bury St. Edmunds in Suffolk. Here, on 9 May 1837, he married Ann Howes in St. James's Church (now the Cathedral). Ann was the daughter of Eleanor Howes, a widow who owned The Seven Stars Inn in Long Brackland, a street in that town. <mask> and Ann had a daughter, Eleanor Anne, and a son, Edward Stanley, born in Bury St. Edmunds on 20 December 1839 and 11 December 1841.In 1839 <mask> commenced writing The Life and Adventures of Valentine Vox the Ventriloquist. Published by Robert Tyas of London, in the monthly serial format, popularised by Charles Dickens, it was an immediate success, enjoying great popularity and acclaim. Illustrations by Thomas Onwhyn were a prominent feature of this, and most of <mask>'s later novels. The first three chapters are set 'in one of the most ancient and populous boroughs in the county of Suffolk', a thinly disguised Bury St. Edmunds. Valentine Vox teaches himself ventriloquism after seeing a performer in a local tavern, then uses his skills to create mayhem and mischief. Fearing this will lead him into trouble, his family send him to stay with his uncle Grimwood Goodman in London. This provides unlimited opportunities to perform pranks, such as disrupting political meetings, theatrical performances, educational lectures and social events.Valentine develops a close friendship with Grimwood. Fearing that Grimwood will re-write his will in Valentine's favour, unscrupulous relatives have Grimwood confined in a private lunatic asylum, where he undergoes many horrific

texts: experiences. Eventually Valentine finds Grimwood, and liberates him, not by using ventriloquism, but by paying for his release. At the novel's conclusion, Valentine marries the love interest, Louise Raven, and abandons ventriloquism. Valentine's activities as a ventriloquist are quite incredible, showing an impossible, almost super-human level of ability: by the end of the book he has duped literally hundreds of people from all walks of life in all situations, not one of whom ever suspects him. Yet the novel contains no technical information about ventriloquism, and it is doubtful if the author had any practical knowledge of the subject. The completed work contained a preface by <mask>, outlining the scandal of private lunatic asylums.As with Charles Dickens in Oliver Twist and Nicholas Nickleby, he clearly intended to draw attention to a social issue about which he felt strongly. Valentine Vox was lauded as one of most amusing and entertaining works of the year, rivalling the popularity of Dickens's novels. Between 1853 and 1902 over 400,000 copies were published in the UK. It even spawned an imitation: Thomas Peckett Prest wrote a plagiarism, The Adventures of Valentine Vaux, or, the Tricks of a Ventriloquist (1840), using the pseudonym Timothy Portwine. Valentine Vox was last printed in 1920. While modern readers will probably gain little from the humour, which consists of one joke, told with repetition, it contains some vividly observed scenes of contemporary London life, which can be read as sources of social history. The success of Valentine Vox prompted Richard Bentley to commission <mask> to write Stanley Thorn (1841) for Bentley's Miscellany.This was not an original composition, but a work initiated by Richard Barham in which several authors had been asked to collaborate in a work on the theme of The Rake's Progress, about the downfall of a wealthy young man of property. <mask> was given the manuscripts to adapt and complete, which he did,

In the course of his misadventures the eponymous hero encounters several rogues and cheats, including the historical Gregor MacGregor, the self-styled Cazique of Poyais. The publisher collapsed before <mask> had received any payment for George St. George Julian, and he was effectively bankrupted, being imprisoned for debt, but being released after declaring himself an insolvent debtor. Three further novels followed.The Sisters of England and France (1843), originally serialised in the Illustrated London News, set in Regency England, tells the stories of Caroline and Lucrece, whose lives diverge as a result of their marriages. Sylvester Sound the Somnambulist (1844), was a comic tale about a persistent sleepwalker, who unknowingly performs many exploits in this state. A comic novel, it enjoyed some success, selling over 40,000 copies, and remaining in print until 1921. The Love Match (1845), about a general's daughter who marries a stable hand, is of some interest for descriptions of the contemporary Newmarket horse-racing community: this featured a terse message announcing it would probably be the author's last book. His failure to make a financial profit from writing was probably the primary reason for his change of career, and he returned to Bury St. Edmunds to run The Seven Stars for his mother-in-law. Here he unwisely stood surety for the sum of £200 for his brother, Edward, only to lose the money when Edward fled to Australia. He then embarked on a malting speculation, buying large quantities of the product, possibly

In the quarter-finals, he scored twice in each leg of a 6–3 aggregate win over Sparta Prague.He was one of four strikers named in the competition's Squad of the Season, and his 9 goals put him only one behind the top scorer, Athletic Bilbao's Aritz Aduriz.

 February 2020, Association of International Education Administrators honored the University of Calgary with an Innovation Award  in Internationalization for IPARI.. The University of Calgary launched many projects in China led or co-led by Professor <mask>. a) Science and engineering undergraduate students in China are able to start their studies at home and complete them in Calgary, thanks to a new program developed under the University of Calgary's international strategy. The program will appeal to foreign students wishing to enhance their English language skills, work internationally or join a top company in their home country after graduation.Participants study in Canada and earn a second degree – in addition to one from their university in China – that will expand their post-graduation options. b) The University of Calgary established a new Global Research Site in Energy – 4000 square meters of new space with 7 research labs and training room with a donation from a Chinese company (worth $11.5 Million). The University of Calgary and the Mexican Ministry of Energy (SENER) recently signed a collaboration note that opens up a long-term partnership to help Mexico boost its energy sector. As part of this partnership, SENER has allocated 150 million pesos (about $11.5 Million) over four years from their hydrocarbon fund for Mexican organizations that want to collaborate with the university on energy research and education. In Aug. 2016, UCalgary  celebrated the opening of its first office at Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM) in Mexico City. However, the University of Calgary researchers managed to secure funding beyond 11.5 million by securing funding for 649 Million pesos (about $44 Million) in March 2017 under four knowledge areas collaborating with Mexican organizations

The Rev. <mask> (c. 1714–1777), also spelled Rosborough and Rosburgh, was a graduate of the College of New Jersey (now Princeton University) where he studied for the ministry and was ordained a Presbyterian minister. In 1776 he organized and became commander of the 3rd Northampton County, Pennsylvania militia, then accepted a commission as company chaplain. He was killed at the Battle of the Assunpink Creek, also known as the Second Battle of Trenton; the first U.S. chaplain killed in battle. Early career

<mask> was born about 1714 in Enniskillen, County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland, and came to this country in the company of his older brother, William. The family was originally from Cragie, co. Ayrshire, Scotland and had come from that country during the settling of the Ulster Plantation. In 1733, when he was age 19, he was living in New Jersey and married; his wife's name was Sarah and all that is known about her is that she died in childbirth, as did their only child.The Rev. William B. Sprague in his  Annals of the American Pulpit says of him "He had already learned a trade, but had been so well educated in all the elementary branches that he was capable of teaching a school and it was  by this means chiefly that he was able to prepare himself for college". Ministry

Somewhat later in life than most he decided to attend the College of New Jersey where he graduated in 1761. He was taken on trials by the New Brunswick Presbytery in 1762, and licensed to preach in August 1763. In October 1764 he was called to the congregations of Greenwich, Oxford, and Mansfield Woodhouse, all in western New Jersey. In December of that same year he was ordained a

 Presbyterian minister. By 1765, he had been assigned additional duties to neighboring congregations in Upper and Lower Hardwick in the Presbytery of Newton, Warren County, New Jersey.In 1766, Rev. Rosbrugh married Jane Ralston, daughter of James Ralston of the Irish Settlement also known as Allen Township (now East Allen Township), PA, twenty miles west of where <mask>h was currently serving as pastor. In 1769 Rev. Rosbrugh was called to serve at that same congregation in Allen Township where his wife was from and they removed to the "Irish Settlement" (so named for its Scots-Irish settlers) where he became their permanent minister. For seven years, he ministered to his congregation in Allen Township, raising his young family and at times serving to the needs of nearby congregations. Revolutionary war

In 1776 with the outbreak of war with the British, the pulpit was one of the main forms of communications of the day, Rev. Rosbrugh stirred his congregation to action against the British and the men of the congregation formed a company of militia and agreed to go to war if Rev.Rosbrugh would lead them. He had expected to accompany them as their chaplain but reluctantly agreed to lead them. <mask> took his place at the head of the company and slinging his musket over his shoulder led the company to join General Washington and the Continental Army in Philadelphia. While in Philadelphia, it was determined that Rev. <mask> would be better suited to take the position of company Chaplain, which he readily accepted. Captain <mask> took his place as company commander. At that time a chaplain, although not provided a uniform held the rank of major and pay of

 thirty-three and a half dollars per month.Presbyterian ministers, however, were particularly hated by the British and if captured suffered the cruelest treatments. On arriving in Philadelphia Rosbrugh's company joined the rest of the Northampton county militia in camp. <mask> was able to dine with his brother-in-law, <mask>, a member of the Second Continental Congress. The 3rd Battalion was under the command of General Israel Putnam who had orders to cross the Delaware on the 25th of December in support of Washington's surprise attack on Trenton; but Putnam decided not to cross due to weather conditions so Rosbrugh's battalion remained in Philadelphia. After General Washington crossed back to Pennsylvania, with his Hessian prisoners and captured goods, he decided to take Trenton a second time. This time the 3rd Northampton militia was included and arrived in time for the second battle of Trenton, also known as the battle of Assinpink creek. Death and burial

The afternoon of January 2 found the American lines, on the south side of Assunpink creek, preparing their positions for the upcoming battle.Rev. <mask> was dining at a public house when the warning was given that Hessians were coming. Going outside he found his horse had been taken and he was suddenly confronted by a company of Hessians under the command of a British officer. He surrendered but they recognized him as a Presbyterian minister and bayonetted him to death on the spot. His executioners took his watch, money and left his body naked in the snow. Captain Hays, on hearing of the death of his pastor wrapped the body and quickly buried him where he fell. The next morning Rev.George Duffield, a

It is believed he still rests there today with his grave marked by a stone shaped as a clock. His widow, Jane (née Ralston) survived him by 32 years, passing away on 27 March 1809. She rests in the East Allen Township cemetery, the inscription on her tombstone indicating her husband <mask> is buried beside her. Family

About 1766, Rosbrugh married a second time, to Jane Ralston (1739–1809). She was the daughter of James Ralston of the Irish Settlement or Allen Township, PA. <mask> and Jane had five children:

Due to her brief absence from En Vogue, Herron did not record on the single "Freedom (Theme from Panther)" without the rest of the members in the music video. In 1996, En Vogue recorded "Don't Let Go (Love)" with <mask> singing the outro of the song. The song was featured on the soundtrack to the motion picture Set It Off.Released in the autumn, it became the group's biggest hit to date going number one worldwide. It also sold over 1.8 million copies worldwide and became certified platinum by the RIAA. In response to the large commercial success of "Don't Let Go (Love)", the group steadfastly went to work on its third album. As the album was nearing completion, Robinson chose to leave the group in April 1997 after difficult contractual negotiations reached a stalemate. The ending result saw En Vogue re-recording their third album with <mask> singing lead vocals on more of the songs. In June 1997, the group released their third studio album EV3, which went platinum. Throughout the years, Herron continued to record on the group's album: "Masterpiece Theatre" (2000), "The Gift of Christmas" (2002), and "Soul Flower" (2004).Following the release of Soul Flower, <mask> chose not to tour with En Vogue during the latter part of 2004 due to being on maternity leave again, but returned to the group the following year.

title: Ish Kabibble

texts:
<mask> (January 19, 1908 – June 5, 1994) was an American comedian and cornet player. Early life
Born Merwyn Bogue in North East, Pennsylvania, he moved to Erie, Pennsylvania, with his family a few months after his birth. Career
Bogue studied law at West Virginia University, but his comedy antics soon found an audience. He appeared in ten movies between 1939 and 1950. In Thousands Cheer (1943), he appeared with Kay Kyser and sang "I Dug a Ditch," and he also appeared as a vocalist in That's Right—You're Wrong (1939), You'll Find Out (1940), and Playmates (1941). In addition, he performed with Kyser on the radio and television quiz show Kay Kyser's Kollege of Musical Knowledge in 1949 and 1950. In his 1989 autobiography, Bogue explained his stage name, which he took from the lyrics of one of his comedic songs, "Isch ga-bibble."The song derived from a mock-Yiddish expression, "Ische ga bibble? ", which was purported to mean "I should worry? ", prompting a curious (and perhaps not coincidental) association with the "What, me worry?" motto of Mad Magazine's mascot, Alfred E. Neuman. While this derivation has been widely quoted on the Internet and elsewhere, the expression "ische ga bibble" is not Yiddish and in fact contains no Yiddish words at all. However, there is a Yiddish expression, "nisht gefidlt," meaning "it doesn't matter to me," from which the term "ish kabibble" may derive. Although Bogue's stage persona was that of a gangling goof, he was a notable cornet player
