                  Denny's Almanac 12-16-2010: On this date in 
                  1773, Bostonians dressed as Native Americans threw tea into 
                  Boston bay to protest tea taxes being too low 
                  and to demand that those taxes be raised; in 1924, 
                  masked men invaded a Nashville, Tenn., hospital, seized and 
                  lynched black teenager Samuel Smith; in 1966, Eddie 
                  Scott was elected president of the Reno-Sparks 
                  NAACP; in 2005, The New York Times admitted that 
                  it does not publish all the news that's fit to print. Copyright
