Jordanian ambassador to Libya kidnapped in Tripoli
Unidentified Libyan gunmen on Tuesday abducted Jordan's ambassador to Tripoli, officials reported.
Libya's Foreign Ministry's spokesman Said al-Aswad says several masked gunmen who were transported by two cars and were wearing civilian clothes attacked the vehicle of Ambassador Fawaz al-Etan on Tuesday morning in Tripoli, the Associated Press (AP) reported.
Al-Aswad said that the militants opened fire at al-Etan's vehicle, wounding his driver and forcing the diplomat out at gunpoint.
Sabah al-Rafie, the Jordanian Foreign Ministry's spokeswoman, confirmed the kidnapping, according to AP. She had no further details but said the Jordanian government working closely with the Libyan authorities to ensure that al-Etan is returned safely.
Abductions in Libya have been on the up since the 2011 uprising that resulted in the toppling of longtime dictator Muammar Gaddafi. Officials are most often targeted but diplomats and journalists have also frequently been subjected to kidnappings, threats and attacks, according to AP.

When teachers and staff return to school there will be some new faces in the crowd. In fact, this year Middletown welcomes 100+ teachers and staff and four new administrators. Each of the hires was made to replace a pervious staff member; none of the positions are additional or new to the district's bottom line.
"This is an exciting time for our schools and you can just feel the energy," stated Sam Ison, superintendent. "We have some wonderful things happening for our students, like the construction projects but we also have some new employees and they are thrilled to be at Middletown."
Like many districts throughout Ohio, the last school year is one of the big retirement years for teachers and staff. That is due to the changes in Ohio's retirement system which made it very attractive for someone at the end of their career to retire then.
Among the new faces at Middletown schools this school year will be three scholars from Ohio's new program called "Bright New Leaders for Ohio Schools." The three Bright scholars will shadow Middletown administrators throughout this school year only and at zero cost to Middletown residents.
"We are thrilled to receive three scholars and we certainly appreciate that they have a calling to work with high-poverty schools," stated Sam Ison, superintendent. "Our schools need and deserve excellent and energetic leaders."
Ohio's Bright scholar program is in its first year and is designed to train and educate future principals by placing them in the highest poverty schools. Among the 35 scholars statewide, Middletown is receiving three.

HOWARD NOYES United States Patent 3,328,218 PROCESS OF MAKING A STRUCTURAL ELEMENT Howard Noyes, 111 Folsom Drive, Dayton, Ohio 45405 Filed Apr. 9, I962, Ser. No. 186,244 2 Claims. (Cl. 156-166) This invention relates to a structural element, and more particularly to a structural element of the type comprising a plurality of plies which are coextensive but separated and held in spaced relationship by core materials.
Many types of composite structural elements are known in the prior art, some referred to as structural sandwiches, some referred to as honeycomb structures, and others bearing similar names. Generally speaking, these elements COnSiSt of coextensive parallel outer plies or sheets which sandwich therebetween a core or a filler of a material or combination of materials to provide units which are strong, yet comparatively light. Such a structure most commonly has a core of thin wall plastic, paper or metal sheets placed at right angles to the outer plies in configurations that alternately merge and separate to form openings that look like those of an ordinary honeycomb; hence, the name. Variations of this core structure include rigid polystyrene or urethane foam; sheets of sinusoidal pattern, as in U.S. Patent No. 2,644,777; and a random mass of fiberglass and resin, as in US. Patent No. 2,805, 974. These prior art structures have all been designed to produce as tructure having the desirable characteristics of strength, stiffness and lightness.
The present invention contemplates a step forward in this art, providing a composite structure which is greatly superior in strength, stillness, and lightness. Basically, the invention utilizes slender columnar core members, in which the individual members are oriented at approximately right angles and secured to outer skin members similar to those previously used. As used in this specification, slender columnar members refers to rigid small diameter solid or hollow columns ranging from about hairlike filaments to about one-quarter inch in diameter, and having a length at :least twice the diameter. The members may be very slender, as in continuous or discontinuous filaments of textile, plastic, or metal, or may be slightly larger in diameter in the form of bristles or tubes. The members may be formed of a single strand of material, or may be of many strands which are spun, intertwined or otherwise grouped; they may be extruded, molded, drawn, or formed by other methods; they may e made of various materials described below; they may be solid or hollow; and they may be cylindrical or have other cross sections, or be of various tapered constructions. There are certain advantages in making hollow cylindrical members by spirally wrapping thin strips of inexpensive material such as paper, to form a unitary member. Such members, and in fact any of the members, may additionally be impregnated or coated with resins or metals. The members may be adhered to the outer plies by methods to be described below, and located in a variety of patterns to be further described. Orientation of the members with respect to the plies is accomplished by many well-known methods. Finally, other variations will produce products having applications; for example, additional plies or other strengthening members may be located between and parallel to the outer plies to improve lateral stability.
The product described herein has wide application in areas requiring structural strength, temperature and sound insulation, and vibration damping. More specifically, it may be used in aircraft and missile structures, building panels, truck bodies, aircraft radar domes, crash helmets, insulating containers, furniture cushioning supports, and supports where vibration damping is required. It has the further advantage of being capable of forming into many shapes, as Will be illustrated below.
It is a principal object of the invention to provide a structural element of superior strength, stiffness, and lightness.
It is a further object to provide such an element having a core of various materials.
It is another object to provide an element that is simple to manufacture.
It is a further object to provide an element capable of circulation of fluid.
These and other objects will be more fully described in the following specification and drawings, in which:
FIGURE 1 illustrates in perspective a preferred form of the invention.

FIGURE 28 is a plan view of the core section of FIGURE 27 in collapsed position.
Turning now to the drawings, FIGURE 1 illustrates a preferred form of the structure, in which a completed element 21 is composed of coextensive parallel outer plies or sheets 22 and 23, having members 24 mounted therebetween and oriented at approximately right angles to the plies. The plies may be made of metal, rigid plastics such as styrene or impregnated fiberglass, cardboard, or other materials, depending on the end use of the element. The columnar members may be plastic, such as polystyrene, nylon or polyester; refractory, such as glass, asbestos or ceramic; metal, such as brass, copper, steel, tantalum, molybdenum, tungsten or aluminum; animal, such as hog bristle; vegetable, such as sisal; or other materials according to the end use. The members may be impregnated with resins such as epoxy or polyester, or metals such as solder, or coated with similar or dissimilar materials; for example, piastics may be metal coated or vice versa. In the case of hollow members, the interior and exterior surfaces may be coated. The element 21 may be fabricated by several methods, such as the one illustrated in FIGURE 2. A continuous sheet 25 made of the material described above is fed along a conveyor system in the direction shown by the arrow. As it passes under the spray head 26, liquid adhesive is sprayed on the surface; thi adhesive may be any of several types, such as phenolic, casein, epoxy, or thermosetting resins, capable of developing high holding strength. While the adhesive is still liquid. a plurality of columnar members such as fibers 28 which are described above, are deposited onto the surface from a flocking apparatus 29, or similar device. The assembly simultaneously passes over a plate 30 which creates an electrostatic charge, by methods well known in the art, thus orienting the members at approximately right angles to the sheet 25. The next step in the process involves heating, which may be accomplished by a battery of infrared lamps 31, or by other well-known means such as hot air or electrical resistance. This sets the adhesive so that the members are firmly placed in this oriented position. Another sheet 32, upon which a layer of similar adhesive has previously been deposited, is then placed on the exposed ends of the members, with the adhesive surface contacting these ends, or the free ends of the member may be coated. The assembly is then exposed to heat, as by a battery of lamps 33, to cure the other layer of adhesive. The final step of the operation consists of severing the assembly by means of cutter 34 to provide the finished structural element 21.
The foregoing is only one example of a method used to provide the desired structure, but many variations are possible. For example, the assembly can take place on pre-cut plies instead of continuous sheets. In lieu of liquid adhesive, a solid activatable adhesive sheet or solvents which react with a plastic surface may be used. The adhesive need not be sprayed, but may be brushed or rolled on the surfaces. In lieu of electrostatic orientation, magnetic attraction (in the case of metal or metal-dipped fibers) may be used; the fibers may be inserted into preformed holes; or even stitched in place. A useful corollary of the employment of resins has been found, in that these resins will tend to flow partially along the surfaces of the columnar members, or between adjacent members, by capillary action. This provides added stiffening.
Another variation of the above method is illustrated in FIGURE 3, in which the members 35 are blown or flocked from reservoir 36 onto a metal sheet 25. By use of vibrating mechanism 37 contacting the sheet, these members become oriented at approximately right angles to the sheet. The upper sheet 32 is then placed on the exposed end of the members and the entire assembly is passed through a brazing or welding furnace 38 to bond the entire assembly into a complete unit, if the members are metal, or a lower temperature oven, if heatresponsive adhesives are used. The completed sheets are severed to length, as before, to form a completed element.
The member illustrated in FIGURE 1 utilizes a regular pattern of distribution of the columnar members, and it is understood that the length of the spacing thereof may be varied according to the desired strength of the member. This spacing, and hence the density, i in ratio to the strength. Also, it is clear that the length of the members with reference to the diameter (known as the slenderness ratio) is in inverse ratio to the strength of the member. As an alternative to the pattern shown in FIGURE 1, the members 24 may be arranged in groups of seven (as in FIGURE 4) or groups of three, four, five, six, or any other number; or they may be arranged in geometric patterns such as concentric circles, spirals (as in FIGURE or honeycomb. They may also be arranged in rows, such as in FIGURE 6, in which a diamond pattern is formed thereby. These patterns may be obtained by preforming the holes and inserting the members as previously mentioned, or by preapplying adhesive in specific patterns. An example of this latter method appears in FIGURE 7, in which the adhesive is applied through a roller 41 having perforations in a diamond pattern. By
passing sheet 44 between this roller 41 and a lower roller 42, adhesive is fed from a reservoir 43 into the roller 41 and creates the adhesive lines 45 as shown. Then when the sheet is exposed to the process shown in FIGURE 2, adherence of members to the adhesive along the prearranged lines will take place.
The cross section of the members may also be varied from round as member 46 in FIGURE 8, and hexagonal as member 47 in FIGURE 9, to such shapes as square, triangular, star-shaped, etc. They may also be hollow, as members 48 and 49 in FIGURES l0 and 11. These sections are particularly susceptible of formation by extrusion or drawing techniques. The members may also vary in configuration; in addition to conventional cylindrical forms, as shown in FIGURES 1 to 3, a member 50 may be double-tapered as in FIGURE 12 or single-tapered as member 51 in FIGURE 13. Members 53 may be assembled and the ends dipped in adhesive as in FIGURE 14 to provide a group 52. These configurations provide additional strength characteristics.
FIGURE 15 illustrates a modified form of the invention in which a structural element 54 is formed of plies 55 and 56 similar to plies 22 and 23, and has core members which are oriented by a dilferent means. This is accomplished by interlacing or intertwining a continuous filament 57 between plies as shown, thus creating a plurality of members which provide the core. As a variation of this principle, other interlaced arrangements may be employed to create various patterns and forms. This type of element may also be shipped inexpensively by treating the filaments with resin, but not curing them and keeping them soft. The entire element may be collapsed flat until received; at that point it may be treated by chemicals or heat to react with the resins, thus stiffening the members while the plies are returned to their previous relationship.
The foregoing constitutes a description of various forms of the invention in which merely an inner and an outer ply are used in conjunction with the core material. It is, of course, understood that any desired number of the complete elements may be stacked upon each other to form a thicker element, and the adjacent plies cemented or otherwise adhered.
It is also contemplated that the structural element may be made in a manner that will provide lateral stability to the fibers during the fabrication thereof. For example, an additional lateral paper ply, parallel to outer plies may be inserted while fabricating; then burned off during subsequent heating operations. This enables the columnar members to be positioned for special shaping as an airfoil shape shown in FIGURE 18. Similarly, ice, foamed plastics, or wax might be employed to create this lateral stability during fabrication; in the case of ice or wax, heat is used to remove them as in the lost wax method; in the case of foam the structure is disintegrated or it is dried out during the heating processes.
Lateral stability may also be desired on a permanent basis, in which an additional ply is made a part of the structure as finally used. Such structures are illustrated in FIGURES 16 to 20, and are used when the slenderness ratio is so high that the bending loads are greater than compression loads. The use of the lateral stiffener will effectively reduce the slenderness ratio and overcome any serious tendency to bend. The additional ply may be.
of the same material as that of the outer plies, or it may be of a different material. The use of inexpensive materials, such as paper, cardboard, or metal foil is practical, since in many cases materials of high structural strength are unnecessary for this purpose.
Turning now to FIGURE 16, one method of utilizing a lateral stiffener is illustrated, in which a sheet 58 has members 59 inserted therein so that the sheet is located midway of these fibers. The sheet may be pre-drilled or punched, or the fibers may be inserted as by a tufting machine. Again it is understood that the fibers may be arranged in various patterns as previously discussed. This entire assembly is bonded to outer plies 60 and 61 to form the completed member 46a shown in FIGURE 17, using one of the previously described methods.
FIGURE 18 illustrates a variation of the members of FIGURE 17, in which the outer ply 63 is a continuous member having a curvature such as found in an airfoil section. The central stifiener 61 has members 62 mounted as in FIGURE 16, except that the members are of different lengths to conform to the shape desired. This may be accomplished by forming the members of desired length, or by a machining operation which creates a curved plane on the members surfaces. The same result may also be obtained by imbedding the members in foam, wax, etc., as previously described, in order to facilitate the machining operation. Another unexpected result from this type of construction arises from the fact that the members do not create a closed core, as in a conventional honeycomb structure; it is now possible to circulate refrigerating fluids within the elements for cooling purposes; or heating fluids within the elements for heating purposes. Circulation of cooling fluids have particular utility in airfoil sections where high speeds generate frictional heat that must be dissipated, as well as in walls or floors where cooling is desired for human comfort. The heated elements have particular utility in manufacturing floors or walls of buildings, thus providing an inexpensive means for providing radiant heat, and may also be used in airfoil sections for anti-icing or de-icing. It is understood that elements used for cooling or heating are properly sealed to provide a closed unit for continuous circulation. It should be noted that such a section may also be formed with a lateral member, as in the showing of FIGURE 18, or without the lateral member, as in FIGURE 1.
FIGURES 19 and 20 illustrate another form of the invention in which a lateral stiffener of a different type is employed. In accordance with this modification, a unit consisting of ply 64a and columnar members 65 is assembled by one of the methods described above, and a second unit of ply 64b and members 65 is also assembled. These units are shown in FIGURE 19, and as indicated by the directional arrows, they are assembled with the free ends of its members in contact. Between these ends is applied an adhesive layer 66, which may be in liquid or solid form and of any of the compositions previously referred to. This layer when setting provides the lateral stiffener to perform the same function as those above described. If desired, the ends of the members may be pre-dipped to form the stiffener. It should be noted that the members are sufiiciently close to create a more or less continuous adhesive or resinous ply, although the closeness of these members may not be truly illustrated in the drawings.
FIGURES 21 to 24 illustrate a unique form of the invention in which the core is formed of components con sisting of longitudinal strands to which are fastened columnar members (of the type previously described) located at intervals and at approximately right angles to the strand. The component is formed into units of indefinite length which may be coiled or otherwise stored until formed into the completed cores as presently described. The component 70 of FIGURE 21 is formed of strand 68 to which are secured, at approximately right angles, the members 69 at appropriate intervals. These members may be secured by adhesives, heat sealing (in the case of plastics), or brazing or welding (in the case of metals). The strand may be of any convenient material as described with reference to the members. FIGURE 22 illustrates a variation in which component 70a is formed of strand 68 as before, but members 69 are located at opposite sides of the strand. FIGURE 23 illustrates a component 70b in which strands 71 and 72 are intertwined and lock in the members 69. As a further variation, FIGURE 24 illustrates a component 70c in which the strands 71 and 72 intertwine and hold these members 69 within each loop. In all cases, the members may be adhered as stated above.
FIGURE 25 illustrates a completed core 73 formed of a number of the components of FIGURE 21 which are interlocked as shown. It is noted in FIGURE 21 that the strands are located slightly off center with respect to the fibers; this permits the strand of one component to be wrapped around a fiber of an adjacent component, as shown in FIGURE 25, in which these separate components form a diamond pattern. For example, the strand 74 is wrapped around members 78, 79, and 81 which are attached to strand 75; the members 82, 83, 84, 85 and 86 being attached to strand 74. Similarly, the strands 76 and 77 are intertwined around the members which are attached to the adjacent strands. By means such as this, any desired pattern of core may be provided. Further, adhesives, heat sealing (as in plastics) or brazing (as in metals) are means which may be used as supplements to, or in lieu of, the interlocking which is shown. It should be noted that the strands of the components provide lateral stiifeners as do the stiffeners of FIGURES 16 to 20, and the core sections may be interchangeably used. The core shown is merely illustrative of the invention but may be made of indefinitely large size.
FIGURE 26 illustrates one of the advantages of the core illustrated in FIGURE 25. After assembly, the core 73 may be collapsed as shown, by laterally shifting the strands about the members which act as pivots, causing the looped portions of the strands to nest into each other. This considerably lessens shipping costs, since it is possible to ship the collapsed core and later reconstruct it in the FIGURE 25 shape before assembly to outer plies as in FIGURES 17 or 18.
FIGURE 27 illustrates another form of core, designated by reference numeral 97, which may be made by assembling a plurality of core components 70 of FIGURE 21. According to this modification, a series of strands 90, 91 and 92, to which columnar members 96 are attached (as in FIGURE 21) are placed in parallel relationship. At right angles thereto are placed another series of strands 93, 94 and 95 which lie below the other strands. The assembly is now interlocked in the manner of an egg crate, with the offset relationship previously mentioned creating this arrangement. The strands may be adhered to adjacent ones by the previously mentioned adhesive, heat, or other methods. This structure, which may be extended indefinitely to form any desired size, is now a completed one and may be used between plies interchangeably with other cores.
FIGURE 28 illustrates the core of FIGURE 27 in collapsed position, as for shipping. This is accomplished by merely shifting the strands (again, as in an egg crate) to provide the flat configuration shown. When this is received it need only be returned to the FIGURE 27 form and used between plies as above.
The products and methods described above are by no means the only ones embodying the inventive concept which involves the use of slender columnar members, oriented at approximately right angles to the outer plies, as cores for sandwich type structural elements. When very slender members, such as fibers, are used, they provide the unusual phenomenon of fibers in compression instead of tension or bending such as normally occurs.
The examples described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are in no way limiting. Other embodiments are contemplated within the scope of the invention. It should also be noted that the drawings may not truly represent the dimensional relationships, but are shown for clarity.

County order bars most sludge use
JOSE L. SANCHEZ Jr.
Staff Writer
RIVERSIDE --- A county order that bans the use of partly treated sludge on land within half a mile of all occupied dwellings, schools and meeting places will effectively ban the material in most of Riverside County, a spokeswoman for the Synagro company and a prominent Winchester farmer said on Monday.
The order, contained in a letter from county public health director Dr. Gary M. Feldman, was made public by the county Monday. The buffer zone requirement, which is effective immediately, applies to the spreading of Class B biosolids -- partly treated human and industrial waste, which can contain some disease-causing viruses, bacteria and fungi. The order does not apply to Class A biosolids, which receive a higher level of treatment than Class B, or to manure. Both Class A and Class B sludges contain chemicals and metals that also pose possible health risks, scientists say.
Synagro produces 500 tons of Class A compost a day at its Temescal Canyon facility and has been spreading an average of 1,000 tons of Class B sludge a day on about 15,000 acres of Riverside County, much of it along the Interstate 215 corridor between Temecula and Perris.
The Board of Supervisors had planned to consider today a proposed moratorium that would have banned the spreading of Class B biosolids anywhere in the county at least until a committee of the National Research Council issues a report on sludge next March. The ordinance dealing with the moratorium is still being worked on and will not be ready to be considered for another two weeks, County Counsel William C. Katzenstein said Monday.
The emergency ordinance originally proposed to implement the moratorium could have been subject to legal challenge, Supervisor Bob Buster said, explaining the delay. The county is also still weighing the impact of a moratorium on sludge operators, he said.
Anti-sludge activists said Monday they were pleased with the decision on buffer zones.
"Cool, that's what we wanted," said activist Margie Newman, a Winchester resident. "Now we need to get some regulations on Class A."
After the National Research Council committee issues its report next year, the county will probably have to take a look at its policy concerning Class A, Katzenstein said.
Shelley Pfeifer, another anti-sludge activist from Winchester, said Monday that authorities should have acted to keep sludge away from people 10 years ago, but that she was happy with the order.
"A half mile (buffer) is appropriate until the national science committee issues its report in March," she said.
Farmers and Synagro officials criticized the buffer zone order.
"This is going to increase sewage rates," Lorrie L. Loder, the company's customer and community relations manager, said Monday. Water treatment plants in Riverside, Orange and Los Angeles counties will now have to truck sludge to Northern California or to Arizona, she said. The extra cost involved will be passed on to residents.
The "$64,000 question" is what will happen if other areas impose similar bans, Loder said. "Maybe we'll have to ration flushing."
Another effect of a ban on Class B biosolids will be that "crop yields will be reduced and fertilizer costs will increase dramatically," Loder said.
But Buster and other sludge opponents say the elimination of Class B sludge will affect few of Riverside County's farmers, who have other options for fertilizing their fields.
"They can still get cow manure for free," Newman said.
Andy Domenigoni, who farms on about 2,800 acres in the Winchester area, said Monday the half-mile buffer order "effectively bans the use" of sludge in Riverside County. "We've got too many people who have moved out here and there's nowhere you can do it."

I use this product twice a day. Morning and night. It feels silky and smooth. No perfume scent. I have been using Sisley products for 5 years. It is a little pricey but it does last long becauce you only need a little.

It takes a lot of imagination to see the Ducks losing — and surrendering a spot in the national-title game.
Maybe they're trying to lull Oregon into a false sense of security.
But today, it takes a lot of imagination to see the Ducks losing — and surrendering a spot in the national-title game.
Saturday, the team Oregon (9-0) plays in its finale Dec. 4, Oregon State, seemed to show that it's not of the ilk of recent years, losing to UCLA. The penultimate opponent, Arizona (at Autzen Stadium on Nov. 26), got schooled by Stanford. And this week's hurdle, California, struggled to beat Washington State as backup quarterback Brock Mansion looked very mortal.
What we learned
- Seattle's vanishing black community
- Bellevue School District seeks to fire football coach Goncharoff over scandal
- Boeing tankers will be delivered to Air Force late — and incomplete
- Paul Allen ends KEXP's yearslong fundraising drive with $500,000 donation
- A six-pack of observations from Seahawks' OTAs: Justin Britt, Alex Collins, Tharold Simon and more
Most Read Stories
Stanford is trying to avoid the Riverwalk. For most folks, that attraction in San Antonio holds allure, and the Alamo Bowl in that city is due to get a Pac-10 No. 2 team in the first year of a new deal.
But the Cardinal (8-1), fresh from schooling Arizona and taking the No. 6 spot in the BCS standings, is still kicking for a berth in one of the bigger bowls. With Texas Christian's big win over Utah and Alabama's loss, Stanford's chance of ending up in the Rose Bowl looks improved.
If Oregon goes to the title game and TCU and Boise State don't, the higher-ranked among those two automatically goes to the Rose opposite the Big Ten, squelching Stanford's chances. In that scenario, Stanford could go to the Orange or Sugar, but will have stout competition among heavier-traveling fan bases.
But if, say, TCU can slip into the title game, that would take the Rose Bowl off the hook and that would be a likely destination for Stanford. A one-loss Auburn (No. 2 BCS) or Louisiana State team (No. 5) might be the biggest hurdle for TCU to make it all the way to the title game.
From now on, Washington (3-6) gets everybody's best shot. UCLA thrust itself back into bowl contention with its upset of Oregon State, so the Bruins (4-5) will face UW on Nov. 18 with something on the line. That's also likely the case with Cal (5-4) on Nov. 27, unless it can upset Oregon or Stanford the next two weeks.
After that, it's the Apple Cup in Pullman, where the Cougars likely won't be able to take anything away from this season except a potential upset.
Thomas Weber has had better nights. But then, so has Trevor Hankins. Hankins, the nation's third-leading punter (47.1), stayed home in Tempe after violating an unspecified team rule at Arizona State. That left both the place-kicking and punting chores to Weber, the 2007 Lou Groza (place-kicking) Award winner.
It was a thoroughly forgettable night at USC for Weber, who punted poorly; had a punt blocked; in his regular endeavor, had a key extra point blocked and returned for two points; and finally, missed a 41-yard field goal that would have won it for the Sun Devils.
Considering USC (which won, 34-33) had a staggering 52 snaps inside ASU territory, it was miraculous the Sun Devils had a shot at all.
This week
Stanford travels to Arizona State in what could be a dangerous game for the Cardinal.
Times Players of the Week
Offense: Stanford's Andrew Luck was 23 of 32 for 299 yards, two TDs and no interceptions.
Defense: Cardinal CB Richard Sherman had 10 tackles and an interception.
Special teams: UCLA K Kai Forbath's 51-yard field goal on the last play of the game won it for the Bruins.

WINNEBAGO — Susie Buffett is helping the Winnebago Tribe build a research-backed Educare preschool and daycare.
The tribe plans to hold a groundbreaking ceremony for the new $10 million center in Winnebago on Wednesday.
The project has the backing of the Buffett Early Childhood Fund, which has helped create other Educare centers.
Susie Buffett, the daughter of investor Warren Buffett, has focused much of her philanthropy on improving early childhood education.
Research has shown that low-income students often start school less prepared than their peers from middle-class and affluent families, and then many low-income students struggle to catch up.

very good. Simple, spicy, quick. Thanks!
My favourite dish at the vegan restaurant near my office is their 'Spicy Garlic Green Beans' and I have clearly spent way too much time and effort trying to recreate it, since the recipe has been here for years now! To fully recreate their dish, I added a few more garlic cloves, added fried tofu slices to the skillet when I added the beans, and doubled the sauce to account for the amount that the tofu would absorb. It turned out exactly like theirs! Served it over brown rice and was a happy camper all night! Thanks so much!
This is a WONDERFUL Chinese Green Bean recipe! I am so glad I found this. I made it exactly as you stated using a wok instead of a skillet. The ingredients are a perfect blend for the beans. Everyone raved and asked for the recipe. Thank you so much, BoxO'Wine for sharing this.

For its 'Share a Coke' summer campaign in Australia, Coca-Cola is replacing its branding with popular first names in the country.
The 150 most popular first names of the Australian population would be printed on the bottle labels, so that consumers can find their "friends' and family members' names to enjoy sharing a Coke together".
Each of 150 names also have a song written, which can be heard on the Coca-Cola Australia Facebook page.
"Names were chosen to represent a cross section of the Australian population. We used publicly available data to review the most popular names in Australian and ethic representation in Australia to ensure the diversity of our multi-cultural nation was represented appropriately," a Coke spokesperson said.
For more unusual names, shoppers can create custom cans at Westfield Shopping Centres.

"Lüneburg Heath" Naturschutzpark Lüneburger Heide by nepalgoods
Naturschutzpark Lüneburger Heide Travel Guide: 21 reviews and 52 photos
The Luneburg Heath can easily be reached by car or train from Hamburg or Hannover. The landscape gives you many opportunities for walks and hiking in a quiet and romantic landscape. There are many old farm houses which offer home stays and horseriding and more.
The Lüneburger Heide is a region in central Lower Saxony. It covers the area between Hamburg, Hannover and Bremen.
It is a very special and beautiful landscape, which I want to introduce to you here.
Beside the beautiful and very typical landscape the Lueneburg Heath also offers a lot of fun and amusement to famlies like for example the Heidepark Soltau.

I just returned from the L. Heide, and it was lovely. I had the impression I had all the hiking paths for myself, not many people around in pre-high-season !
A very nice page about an area I will walk across one day; I love mountains, but some flatlands have a special charm; and. . I grew up in a flat heath and pine trees covered area, and there is some tropism. . . . .
I especially like your intro photo and the one with the fog! Would love to take a walk there one day.
Thanks Ulrike for very interesting page. Views on your pics are very similar to Russian views around my country-house. May be that's why we often feel like at home beiing in Germany?
Glaciers have left their mark in the Calgary area as well but so far we haven't had trouble with sheep.
a great page with lots of excellent pics, bringing back great memories ! I often stayed in Undeloh and I love that special architecture & lovely landscape of Lueneburger Heide !
Thanks for visiting my Indonesia page, and thanks for this page on an area I knew nothing about. That hotel looks like a lovely place to stay!
Fantastic pictures - especially of the flora! Looking forward to more tips, Ulrike! Great start!

D.C. Police Chief Cathy Lanier has signed a five-year, $253,000-a-year salary deal, according to WTOP.
She won't have any annual raises or bonuses but is eligible for a 5 percent retention raise in 2015, which is standard for officers who have 20 years of service.
Lanier's contract will be presented to the D.C. Council. However, WTOP reports that the council does not approve the chief's contract.
The District's police union Tuesday sued the District, claiming that Lanier is hindering the union's efforts to reach a deal with rank and file police officers.

A 33-year-old Newberry man accused of sexual battery on a 14-year-old girl has been arrested.
According to the Gainesville Police Department, the girl said Savalas Leaton Lee, of 14114 SW 12th Place in Newberry, began forcing her to participate in sex acts during spring break of 2010.
The girl said the acts continued through Mother's Day weekend of 2011 and happened inside her home while her mother was gone.
The girl said the man gave her a cellphone for her birthday — which her mother did not know about — and once gave her $40 in cash, according to police.
The situation was discovered when the victim told her mother she was considering suicide in order to get the man to leave her alone, police said.
Another family member told investigators that Lee would stop by the house unannounced, spend a short amount of time visiting, then go upstairs where the girl was and spend extended periods of time, according to police.
During questioning on Thursday, Lee told police he would stop by the home but denied ever going up the stairs to see the girl.
After being questioned, Lee was arrested and booked into the Alachua County jail.

The high school track and field season hit full stride Saturday as the Tiger Invitational was held at Battle Ground High School.
It was the perfect early season meet for athletes to make a name for themselves in Clark County and across the state.
Take one athlete in the boys javelin, for instance.
Shawn, no wait a minute, Sean … uh, last name started with a K … Kall, no, Keller. Yeah, that's it. Sean Keller … of Heritage.
Anyway this Sean Keller kid, who is actually a golfer in the fall, keeps in shape during the spring by throwing the javelin. And on Saturday, he had a pretty good day.
OK, I'm going to stop there. If there is anyone who still thinks I don't know who Sean Keller is, please turn to the funny pages. They are located on Page D4 today.
Now, back to Keller. He opened his 2012 prep season with a throw of 230 feet, 7 inches.
Somewhere in eastern Washington, Connell's Matt Hadley woke up Saturday morning feeling pretty good about holding the state's best mark in the javelin at 195-2.
Now, he has the second-best mark.
Saturday's throw by Keller is the second-best of his prep career, just behind his career best of 232-1. Keller won Saturday's meet by more than 60 feet.
To put it another way, if Heritage's second-best javelin thrower on Saturday took his best throw, walked out to where the javelin landed, picked it up and threw it again, the javelin would still fall short of Keller's best mark.
That's no knock on Heritage's No. 2 javelin thrower — he finished in the middle of the pack on Saturday. It just shows how good Keller is.
Heritage track and field coach Russ Weaver said Keller is aiming at the national javelin record of 255-4. Well, Keller is off to a pretty good start — for a golfer.
But Keller wasn't the only Clark County athlete putting up some high-ranking marks in the state on Saturday, according to athletic.net. Here are some others of note:
• Union's Angelique Williams ranks No. 1 in the girls javelin (131-11).
• Prairie's Johna McEllrath is No. 3 in the girls discus (130-8).
• Skyview's Jameson Shirley is No. 3 in the boys pole vault at 14-6.
• Skyview's Madison Lanford is No. 2 in the girls 300 hurdles (46.34).
• Camas' Alexa Efraimson is No. 3 in the girls 800 (2:17.60).
• Union's Kaitlyn McKinney is No. 2 in the girls 400 (59.09).
