Object Title:
Study of Hawaiian Fish
Hubert Vos
American, 1855 - 1935
Oil on canvas
36 1/4 x 72 5/8 in. (92.1 x 184.5 cm)
Credit Line:
Gift of Robert and Deanna Levy, 1987 (5626.1)
Object Number:
No doubt in reference to this depiction of a white-bearded Hawaiian fisherman spilling the bounty of the sea from his woven lauhala basket onto a table top, the Pacific Commercial Advertiser informed its readers on April 26, 1898, that: Hubert Vos is just now engaged in a large painting of Hawaiian Fishes represented in various positions on a marble slab. He has been particularly struck by the exquisite coloring of the members of the finny tribe to be found in Hawaiian waters. In painting this carefully detailed representation of fifty-seven varieties of fish and crustaceans Vos drew on the tradition of seventeenth-century Dutch still-life painting with which he must have been familiar from his childhood and studies in Europe. The myriad forms and colors are not fanciful imaginings but were carefully rendered from sketches of actual specimens purchased at the Honolulu fish market. Vos completed this impressive work by including a kou calabash and a draped net in the background.

While the audience is still

The man finishes his
fanfare and announces in
no uncertain terms, "All

Besides Queen Elizabeth
and her attendants, there
are also orange girls to sell
oranges. And during the
scene changes there's al-most

by Kraig Klaudt
The Clarion tradition of writing about "senioritis" or
graduation phobia this time of the year is as old as the
Arden Hills. Honestly, I have never really cared for
senior testimonies which gush about post-collegiate
anxieties (and naturally will forgive any underclass-men
who now continue to the sports page.) That
Bethel's senior citizens should become observably dis-traught
over the termination of their liarmaic cycle of
school and vacation was always beyond my compre-hension.
May 23 meant no more books, not that some-one
was going to die or something.
Well, now I am a senior and the death metaphor
seems only too appropriate. Commencement will be my
last rite, complete with eulogy, testimonials, sacred
hymns and tears. The spirits of the work-a-day world
will hover above my educated carcass, morally judging
me as "hired" or "we'll keep your resume on file." Even
hell, with its eternal job security, seems appealing at
As in death, the greatest anxiety preceding gradua-tion
is dread of the unknown. Who among the cast of '82
can speak with confidence about that which lies behind
the plexiglass gates of Bethel? Each of us has been
gifted by God with special gifts, but will they be used?
Will those values and ideals we discussed with room-mates
and presented in class be seen in our own lives?
The possibility of unfulfilled dreams, including unem-ployment,
is the source of the greatest graduate anxiety.
Comfortable, idealistic attitudes are easy when one's
work is defined and one's responsibilities are minimal.
Ideals do tend to evaporate, however when brought
near to the consuming flames of security, material gain
and prestige. Many potential Mother Teresas and Mar-tin
Luther Kings have lost their way from noble paths
because of such things.
For better or for worse, we each are cursed with the
hopeless condition of freedom. No amount of advice,
prayer or sleeplessness can take this freedom away.
Anxiety, however, need not be an overwhelming part of
our free and uncertain future. A very wise person who
also happened to be God suggested that we "have no
fear about tomorrow, for tomorrow will take care of
For me, the key is this: Dream big and hope for actual-ized
ideals, yet, LIVE in the present; "be here now."
Without ideals, the "Now" becomes empty and useless;
without the "Now," the goals cannot come true.
As the grim, parchment-carrying reaper draws near
to my idealistic college existence I admit my fear. How-ever,
I am determined not to run nor to sell my soul to
the devil. I prefer to enjoy each moment as if it were my
There is one fear, however, that I have not yet been
able to deal with. Unlike death, graduation for some
might not necessarily be inevitable!

and Kroone won the jave-lin
with a 116'7" throw.
Second place finishes
were Danette Burgess in
the 100 meter and 200 me-ter
dashes, and the
1600 meter relay team.
Burgess ran 14.35 for a
course that was actually
eight meters too long in
the 100 meter, and 27.95 in
the 200 meter. The 1600
Ball team
loses five,
wins once
by John Clark
The Bethel men's base-ball
team suffered through
a week in which the Roy-als
managed to win only
one game, losing the other
five contests by a cumula-tive
total of 67-25.
If one only looked at the
scoreboard during the
doubleheader against St.
Thomas on April 13, it
might have appeared as
though the football season
were underway. The Roy-als
fell 21-7 in the opening
game and dropped the
second game 18-3. The on-ly
bright spots for the
Royals were the two home
runs that Bob Giddings
put over the fence.
Bethel came back the
next day, however, with a
renewed spirit and the
strong pitching of Marvin
Zaderaka and defeated
Hamline 1-0 in the first
game. A slow start ham-pered
Bethel in the second
game and a late inning
rally fell short as the Roy-als
lost 9-8. Giddings
paced the Royal comeback
with another home run in-to
a stiff wind.
On April 17 Bethel went
against a tough St. Olaf
squad and lost 9-2 and
meter relay team turned in
a time of 4:36.88 for its
second-place finish.
"That was the highlight
of the meet for us," said
Book. "Usually we're not
up there, but this time we
got some good splits from
a couple of people, and
that helped us finish right
up there."
Two of the women who
usually finish "right up
there," Norberg and Bar-ker,
are looking forward
to qualifying for the na-tional
meet. Their next
chance will be Saturday,
April 24, when the team
travels to Macalester.
"The majority of the top
women's teams in the state
will be there, so it'll be
good competition," said
Book. "Wendy is hoping to
qualify in the 10 kilometer
run — she's already quali-fied
in the 5 kilometer run
— and Sarah is only 2'10"
away from qualifying in
the discus."
by John Clark
A lack of hitting was
the downfall of the Bethel
softball team as the Royals
managed only eight hits in
four games April 15 and
The Royals managed to
come away with one win,
taking the second game of
a doubleheader against St.
Mary's on April 15. After
losing the first contest 13-
4 Bethel rallied behind the
pitching of Becky Rash and
Chris Johnson to take the
second game. Rash pitched
the first five innings and
Johnson, who also had an
RBI single, picked up the
save, hurling the final two
Against St. Thomas two
days later Bethel played
"the best game we've
played all year" in the first
game, according to coach
Carol Girdle, despite the
4-2 loss. The Royals had
no errors but lacked the
necessary offensive out-put.
The second game was a
complete reversal as Beth-el
committed a whopping
10 errors and got only one
hit. The result was a 15-3
Royal loss in a five-inning
game (called because of
the ten-run rule). The loss
pushed Bethel's conference
record to 1-3.
Bethel's inability to get
runners around the bases
has Girdler concerned, as

plenty of tee-time

Story highlights
- Users spent only a little over 3 minutes on Google+ in January, according to a new report
- That's compared to 7.5 hours for Facebook
- Google says its social network has at least 90 million users
Users spent just 3.3 minutes on Google+ in January compared to 7.5 hours for Facebook, according to a new comScore report.
The gulf between usage on G+ and Facebook has always been large, but comScore's numbers show a downward trend for Google's fledgling social network. Users spent 4.8 minutes on the network in December and 5.1 minutes in November, the report said.
The usage figures come after Google has trotted out some impressive stats outlining Google+'s growth. In a call with analysts last month, Google CEO Larry Page said Google+ had 90 million users compared to 40 million in October.
Reps from Google could not be reached for comment on the report. In the past, Google has taken issue with third-party reports about Google+, noting that they don't track users who access the site remotely, among other factors. (ComScore doesn't include mobile users in its data, though it plans to soon.)
Google is putting a huge amount of emphasis on Google+. Last April, Page told employees that 25% of their annual bonuses would be tied to the company's social strategy that year, which primarily involved the yet-to-be-announced Plus. The company also integrated Google+ results into searches in January, a program it calls "Google Plus Your World."
Despite the latest report, though, there's some encouraging news for Google: Website-Monitoring crunched the numbers this month and found that Google+ is getting less male dominated and is catching on big in India, where 13.69% of Plussers now originate.

The University of Michigan Kidney Epidemiology and Cost Center in Ann Arbor is fast on its way to becoming the nation's largest research and data collection system for renal failure.
The center has received two federal grants in the past six months totaling $26.1 million.
This week it received a five-year, $8.5 million federal contract to serve as the coordinating center for the United States Renal Data System.
Last October, the center received a five-year, $17.6 million federal contract to develop new measures to evaluate the nation's dialysis facilities. The goal is to save lives and reduce costs for renal care patients.
Because of an aging and overweight population, end-stage renal disease – a condition in which the kidneys stop working and can't remove excess waste from the body – is one of the nation's fastest growing chronic diseases.
An estimated 13 percent of Americans have chronic kidney disease, which increases their risk for early death due mainly to cardiovascular disease. Some 100,000 people each year develop end-stage kidney disease that requires dialysis or kidney transplantation for survival.
The renal data system collects, analyzes and distributes information about patients with chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease.
"The award presents a unique opportunity to address one of the nation's fastest-growing chronic diseases," said Rajiv Saran, project director of UM's renal data system, in a statement.
"The work we do will provide the impetus for improving the care and quality of life for patients with all aspects of kidney disease and guide prevention efforts."
The renal data system includes a multidisciplinary team of 21 investigators from the University of Michigan Medical School, the Institute for Healthcare Policy and Innovation, Frankel Cardiovascular Center, the schools of public health and pharmacy and subcontractors from Arbor Research Collaborative for Health and the University of California, Irvine.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Rhonda from Love this skillet I have a large family so had been looking for a large cast iron skillet. I purchased the 13". And I can make enough fried potatoes to feed my family of six in this skillet. Saving my money for another one.Date published: 2019-04-12Rated 5 out of 5 by Seasidej from Weighty, Yet Wonderful While I can barely lift this weighty skillet, it does an excellent job of evenly browning meat and cooking at a consistent temperature. I don't think it is deep enough to label as a deep skillet. The depth is comparable to my other similar-sized skillet. Cleans easily. Attractive: OceanDate published: 2016-08-21Rated 5 out of 5 by CarlosNaranjo from Excellent, best quality The best investment I have ever made for my kitchenDate published: 2016-05-11Rated 5 out of 5 by GloriaRN from iron skillet This is the best iron skillet ever!! Makes a really crispy crust the extra handle makes it so easy to lift from oven.Date published: 2016-01-09Rated 5 out of 5 by helewise from Timeless Product Beautiful Skillet. You can never go wrong with Le Creuset. BTW, does anyone know if William Sonoma have the recipe for the fritata in the picture? I have never seen a fritata so thick and fluffyDate published: 2015-09-04Rated 5 out of 5 by batlitt from Cast Iron Deep skillet I have used this almost everyday since I bought it. LOVE IT!!!Date published: 2015-07-24Rated 5 out of 5 by MsHarrisoninPTC from Love this deep skillet I have the 12 inch and 13 inch versions of this skillet. I love them both but the 13inch version is spectacular. It's the Le Creuset version of the cast iron skillet that my mom and grandma had - Meaning that it is huge, but beautiful and maintenance free. I just received the 13 inch version and it just may be my favorite piece (of too many pieces of LC). I will use it for frying (of course) but also for a giant cornbread, second LC paella / Jambalaya pan, stir fry pan etc. The deep sides are awesome for the obvious cooking reasons but it also allows me to see more of the exterior color and I really love that. Last, the black interiors are terrific for browning. I really like the original skillets too but had always wished they were deeper. Tks WS and LC for this offering.Date published: 2014-11-08Rated 2 out of 5 by SuLu from In a state of shock I have and love various le creuset pieces. I was waiting to get the cast iron skillet and finally bought it early this month in lapis. You can imagine my surprise and disappointment when after I used the skillet twice, the satin finish was splotchy and the blue enamel faintly showed through in spots. I never used a heat higher than medium in both cooking situations and cleaned out with a soft sponge. I am writing this review to let you know that this can happen and don't toss your packaging until you have used this skillet more than just a few times. I won't stop buying le creuset, but I shall be more cautious! I am returning the skillet.Date published: 2014-03-17
Do you have the recipe for the frittata? i would like to get it if I could. it looks very delicious!!!Hi patty15, Apologies that it took us this long to locate the recipe. It's actually not a frittata but cornbread. Here is the recipe: https://www.williams-sonoma.com/recipe/gluten-free-skillet-corn-bread.htmlDate published: 2019-05-20
Do you know what size pan is used in the video?Hi Sandy, We believe it's a 13" skillet. Sorry, this video was shot numerous years ago and the records are no longer available.Date published: 2019-02-14
Where can I find the skillet cover in the video?Hi Roon, Unfortunately, we no longer offer that particular splatter screen in our assortment. We have these other options online: https://www.williams-sonoma.com/shop/cooks-tools/splatter-screensDate published: 2018-12-31
Is this skillet good for cooking steak at high temps?Hi Roon, Cast iron skillets tend to be the best for searing steaks because it's naturally nonstick, it retains heat wonderfully, and the material gives a better sear than a stainless steel pan.Date published: 2019-03-22

Part 1: a First Night for everything
Our online diarist Tristan Jakob-Hoff joins the Prommers in a packed central arena for a variety-fuelled First Night
Summer in London, for those who still believe in such a thing, is a time of reckless optimism. At the first hint of anything resembling sunshine, the capital's entire populace heads down to the nearest stretch of green space to indulge in a spot of ill-advised and insufficiently attired sun worship. Even the more grizzled and cynical amongst us occasionally throw caution to the wind and head outside without an umbrella. I suspect this uncharacteristic confidence in the sun's reliability is some form of temporary insanity, brought on by the sheer bewilderment of seeing an endless expanse of blue where the clouds used to be. Whatever it is, it is a dangerous affront to the gods and almost certainly guarantees a thunderstorm.
Thankfully, the men and women who queue outside the Royal Albert Hall every Summer are a breed apart. The heavens have never opened up above a queue full of Prommers without a thousand umbrellas doing likewise. Just as well too. Last night, the 2009 Proms season kicked off with a very healthy downpour, the sort you don't usually see until at least the second or third week. Everyone standing in the queue had their brolly up within seconds. There was a fair amount of grumbling, of course, and an audible cheer went up when the doors were finally flung open and we were allowed to shuffle inside. But I felt a certain pride at our collective preparedness. I suppose anyone who has ever spent the best part of a British Summer queuing outside, at the fickle mercy of London's elements, knows to expect the unexpected.

I hate how he's gonna give more people an opportunity to pirate some more and cost game developers money that could be better used for making some new games
Ok, I'll try and educate you.There are 2 keys in a PS3. One to allow homebrew (softwares on the PS3) and one used to recognize games as legal.What he gave is the first.
Then why is the US military allowed to do it for their 1716 PS3?
George Hotz runs unsigned software on PS3 -> courtUS military runs unsigned software on PS3 -> ...
In a lame attempt to direct traffic to their pathetic websites, a website has reported that Geohot has "fled" the country after court documents reveal a PSN account alleged to belong to him. Normally, we would not report on something so completely ridiculous but, unfortunately, this nonsense is starting to spread to mainstream websites.Hotz is currently on vacation in a South American country. As common sense would dictate, there is no reason to "flee" from a civil case. These sites have based their claims on misinterpretations of the court documents and an image (see below) posted on Geohot's blog. Way to put two and two together, guys!In the future, we recommend only getting your news from reputable sites, not random video game blogs. When there's something real to report on the case, you''ll read it here, as always. For the record, we are referring to the original source of the article, a blog called VGHQ.NET that just set itself up on March 1, 2011. Why mainstream news sites would source them is beyond me but let the conspiracy theories fly.As for Sony's claims that Hotz has a PSN account under the name "Blickmaniac," they should probably take a closer look at the forum post they are using as evidence, since the geotag in the picture posted by the user leads to Cambridge, MA. That's not even close to New Jersey the last time we checked. So, yeah, life's good.

AGCO, a company that has grown by purchasing many other companies, has just announced a major acquisition. AGCO will pay $940 million for GSI Holdings Corp., a major manufacturer of grain-handling equipment, which is currently owned by Centerbridge Partners. The purchase should be completed by the end of 2011.
GSI posts more than $700 million in annual sales and is headquartered in Assumption, Ill. Its current owners are based in New York. GSI markets its equipment and storage facilities through 500 independent dealers globally.
GSI will join many well-known brands under the AGCO umbrella. AGCO, which has been in existence 21 years, has purchased more than 20 companies, with most of the purchases made from 1990 to 2004. Recently, AGCO has consolidated some brands and reports it is spending more research and engineering money on new technology to increase its competitive edge in the farm equipment market. But company officials state they are always open to more acquisitions if a company fits.
"GSI is an excellent fit with AGCO and will allow us to extend our reach in the agricultural industry and provide our customers with an even wider range of products and services," stated Martin Richenhagen, AGCO's CEO. "With its high-quality products and services, recognized brands and global capabilities, GSI gives us strong positions in the grain storage and protein production segments and is well positioned to benefit from increases in global grain and food demand."
GSI's CEO Scott Clawson said, "Today marks the beginning of a very exciting chapter for GSI. Through this combination, we will create a stronger business for our customers and employees that will allow us to maximize our growth opportunities, both domestically and abroad.

Top Hitschfel Instruments Executives to Retire, Turning Microscope Sales Activities in Seven States Over to Olympus
CENTER VALLEY, Pa., January 9, 2013 – With the upcoming retirement of the top executives of Hitschfel Instruments, Inc., St. Louis, Mo., Olympus will begin selling biomedical and industrial microscopes and imaging instruments directly in central and southern Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and metropolitan Memphis, Tenn., effective February 1. Hitschfel has been an Olympus authorized dealer in the region for 23 years.
Sales, service and training functions are already being transitioned to Olympus to help ensure that the change is seamless for customers. Most Olympus microscope users in the region may not notice any overt change, as many will continue to be served by the same microscope sales representatives, who will now become Olympus employees. Moreover, Olympus plans to honor any committed orders from Hitschfel's customers for Olympus equipment at the time of the changeover.
"Our goal is to make this change a win-win for everyone who has been served by Hitschfel. As the largest microscope dealer in this important region in the heartland of America, Hitschfel Instruments has been a valued partner over many years of success," said Hidenao Tsuchiya, President of Olympus Corporation of the Americas and head of the Scientific Equipment Group at Olympus America Inc. "We look forward to bringing expanded Olympus sales and service capabilities to these important customers, with excellent products, technical support and training. We wish the Hitschfels all good things as they move forward."
Both President Günter Hitschfel and Vice President Gabi Hitschfel are retiring. "Gabi and I want to express our appreciation to our employees, our customers and Olympus for giving us the opportunity to work with them and to build a business devoted to service and excellence," said Günter Hitschfel. "Our customers work in the crucial research, clinical and manufacturing sectors and we have been proud to have had the opportunity to contribute to their success. Now we have decided it is time for us to travel, relax and enjoy life."
Olympus microscopes are widely used in neuroscience, cell biology and other high-end research applications, along with the pathology, clinical laboratory, educational, semiconductor, metrology, product inspection and engineering fields. To ensure that microscope users throughout the U.S. receive the highest-quality knowledge, products and service, Olympus offers a combination of direct and dealer sales, depending on the region.

Huskers Fall in Battle with Bruins
Pasadena, Calif. - In a game of big plays, missed chances and momentum swings, UCLA capitalized in the fourth quarter at home in the Rose Bowl for a 36-30 win over No. 16 Nebraska.
The Huskers fought hard for four quarters but came up short for the first time to slip to 1-1 on the season with a loss in their road opener. UCLA improved to 2-0 under first-year head coach Jim Mora, as the Bruins won their home opener at the Rose Bowl.
Nebraska produced 439 yards of total offense, including 260 rushing yards led by sophomore I-back Ameer Abdullah's 119 yards and two touchdowns on 16 carries. Junior quarterback Taylor Martinez added 108 yards and a score on 11 carries, while contributing 179 yards passing (17-31-1) to finish with 291 yards of total offense.
Martinez's night was highlighted by a career-long 92-yard touchdown run in the second quarter that put Nebraska ahead 14-7. It was the longest run by a Nebraska player since Heisman Trophy winner Eric Crouch sprinted an NU quarterback-record 95 yards at Missouri in 2001. Martinez's run also tied for the fifth-longest run in school history. It was the third run of 80 yards or more in Martinez's career.
While Martinez and Abdullah produced solid numbers for the Huskers, Bruin quarterback Brett Hundley and running back Johnathan Franklin packed an impressive one-two punch for UCLA. Hundley completed 21-of-33 passes for 305 passing yards and four touchdowns. He added 53 yards on 12 rushes to account for 358 yards of total offense.
Hundley's final touchdown pass, a nine-yard connection to Franklin with 2:13 left in the game, provided the winning margin. It was Franklin's third reception on the night for a total of 59 yards, but receiving was a minor part of the talented back's production.
Franklin rushed 26 times for 216 yards - the sixth-highest total ever by an opposing back against the Huskers - to help the Bruins amass 653 yards of total offense. Franklin's big numbers led a Bruin ground game that accounted for 344 yards on 56 carries. Overall, UCLA produced 94 snaps and produced 37:40 time of possession.
Despite UCLA's gaudy stats, the Huskers were in position to win for 60 minutes. But Nebraska Coach Bo Pelini credited UCLA for making the plays to win, while recognizing the Huskers' mistakes as the difference in the outcome.
"We didn't play well in any phase of the game. We were inconsistent. Our fundamentals were lousy. I give UCLA credit. We didn't execute well. We didn't tackle well. We didn't do anything well on the defensive side of the ball," Pelini said. "Obviously, I'm disappointed with how we played defensively. I'm embarrassed how we played defensively. There were a lot of times we had them in our grasp. It killed us.
"You want to talk about a team loss. That's it. Defensively, we didn't show up in the first half and offensively we didn't show up in the second half. We didn't earn it. We didn't deserve to win at the end of the day. In the end, we want to end up back out here. We want to play our last football game here. But to get back here, we've got a lot of work to do."
The Bruins took the game's opening drive 57 yards on 12 plays, but Ka'imi Fairbairn misfired on a 36-yard field goal for the game's first missed opportunity.
The Bruin defense forced a three-and-out, and Brett Maher mishit a punt for just 13 yards, giving UCLA great field position at the NU 27.
Hundley capitalized on the next play, hitting Joseph Fauria with a 27-yard touchdown pass with 9:08 left in the first quarter to give the Bruins a 7-0 lead.
Field position played a major role throughout the night, especially in the second half.
Nebraska's average drive start in the first half was inside its own 19, while UCLA started beyond its own 33 on average in the half. In the second half, the Bruins started on average near their own 42. On its first eight drives of the second half, the Huskers averaged a start at their own 20, before starting their final drive at the UCLA 36.
Nebraska answered with a quick score of its own, racing 75 yards on six plays capped by Abdullah's six-yard scoring run with 7:00 left in the opening quarter. The biggest play of the drive came with Martinez's 36-yard connection with sophomore wide receiver Kenny Bell, who finished with a team-best six receptions for 108 yards.
The Blackshirts made a big play on the UCLA drive, as Jason Ankrah forced a fumble recovered by Daimion Stafford. The Huskers started the drive at their own 13, and moved just 14 yards before another short punt put the Bruins on the doorstep against at the UCLA 45. But the Blackshirts forced another three-and-out, before a 50-yard Jeff Locke punt buried the Huskers at their own 4.
After a four-yard gain by Abdullah on first down, Martinez exploded up the middle on his 92-yard burst to put the Huskers up 14-7 with 2:24 left.
Hundley, Franklin and the Bruins went back to work, putting together a 12-play, 58-yard march that consumed nearly five minutes. But the Blackshirts forced a 35-yard field goal by Fairbairn to keep the Huskers in the lead at 14-10.
But a holding penalty during Bell's kickoff return on the next play put the Huskers deep in their own territory to start another drive. Maher hit a solid 45-yard punt, but Steven Manfro worked his way for 14 yards on the return to start the Bruins at their own 42. Six plays later, UCLA went up 17-14 on Fauria's second touchdown reception from Hundley.
Nebraska settled for its third drive start of the first half at its own 13, but six straight successful plays later, Abdullah burst 17 yards for a touchdown to put NU back up 21-17 with 5:07 left. Abdullah set up the score with a 25-yard run earlier in the drive, while Martinez added a 10-yard run of his own along with passes of 12 and 17 yards to Bell.
Hundley and the Bruins took just four plays to regain the lead after connecting with Manfro on a 49-yard scoring strike with 3:49 left.
After rare first-half defensive stops by each team, the Huskers were knocking on the door at the UCLA 21 before a bad snap sent Martinez scrambling. Before taking a 16-yard sack, Martinez tried to throw a desperation shovel pass to the sideline, which was deflected and intercepted by Datone Jones. On review, Martinez's left knee was ruled down before the throw occurred, leaving the Huskers with three seconds and a 54-yard field goal attempt.
Enter Maher, who appeared to knock through a career-long field goal to end the half, but Mora called timeout prior to the kick. After UCLA called a second "icing" timeout, Maher stepped up again and squeezed the field goal inside the upright to send the two teams to the locker room tied at 24.
Nebraska started the second half with the ball, but on the opening play of the half, Abdullah was stripped of the ball and UCLA started at the NU 28. The Bruins capitalized nine plays later with Fairbairn's 22-yard field goal to go up 27-24 with 11:50 left in the third quarter.
After three-and-outs by both defenses, Nebraska pieced together a drive to the UCLA 26 that resulted in Maher's 43-yard field with 7:45 to tie the game at 24.
At that point, the shootout turned into a slugfest, as the defenses made plays the rest of the third quarter. The score remained tied at 27 entering the fourth quarter, and the Huskers were again buried deep in their own territory with the ball to start the fourth.
Nebraska started the fourth with a burst of energy though, as Martinez powered his way 13 yards on third-and-eight from the NU 9. Abdullah then raced 36 yards on the next play to put the Huskers at the UCLA 42. Three straight runs by Braylon Heard carried NU 21 yards to the UCLA 21, before the Husker drive stalled at the UCLA 19. Maher then missed wide left by inches over the upright to keep the score tied.
UCLA moved the ball the midfield before the Blackshirts stiffened, but Locke's punt buried the Huskers at the NU 5. On the first play, Datone Jones sacked Martinez in the end zone for a safety to put the Bruins up 29-27.
On the ensuing possession, Franklin set up a potential UCLA score with his 54-yard gallop to open the drive, but Fairbairn missed his second field goal of the night from 34 yards to keep the Huskers within a field goal of winning.
Martinez misfired on three straight passes on the ensuing drive, before Maher boomed a 64-yard punt with no return to pin UCLA at its own 16 - its worst field position of the second half.
UCLA threatened again, as Hundley completed passes of 33 yards to Devin Lucien and 19 yards to Franklin to put the Bruins at the NU 24. But a sack from Andrew Green pushed UCLA out of field goal range and the Bruins were forced to punt. The Huskers benefitted from a holding penalty to start the drive at the own 20 instead of inside their own 10 again, but Martinez's second pass of the drive was intercepted by Andrew Abbott and returned 24 yards to the NU 16.
Hundley connected with Franklin from nine yards out three plays later to put the Bruins up 36-27.
The game appeared to be over, but a pair of Bruin mistakes on the ensuing kickoff gave the Huskers a breath of life. Bell returned Locke's kick 47 yards and NU was able to tack on a 15-yard personal foul by the Bruins to start the drive at the UCLA 21 with just over two minutes left needing two scores. The Huskers were unable to move, but Maher hit his third field goal of the night from 40 yards out to pull NU back within a score at 36-30.
Nebraska was unable to come up with the onside kick, and UCLA ran out the clock for the victory.
Nebraska returns home next week to begin a three-game homestand. The Huskers will take on Arkansas State in an 11 a.m. (CDT) game at Memorial Stadium.

When former provost Betty Capaldi Phillips agreed to come back to the University of Florida to direct the startup of the state's first fully online four-year bachelor's degree program.
When former provost Betty Capaldi Phillips agreed to come back to the University of Florida to direct the startup of the state's first fully online four-year bachelor's degree program, it was met with much fanfare.
She had built a reputation as vice chancellor of the State University of New York system and as provost of Arizona State University, helping to launch ASU's own, nationally acclaimed online program.
But less than three months after she officially began as director of UF Online on Jan. 1, Phillips -- the wife of former UF Senior Vice President and COO Win Phillips — is no longer in charge of that program.
In an administrative memo sent out to faculty after 9 p.m. Tuesday, UF Provost Joe Glover didn't even mention Betty Capaldi Phillips by name.
"Due to changes in personnel, effective immediately, Associate Provost Andy McCollough will become responsible for the administration of UF Online. Consequently, issues related to this program should be directed to his attention," Glover's memo said.
The memo was not posted on the Administrative Memo web page until late Wednesday afternoon.
Phillips "plans to return to Arizona State University as a faculty member to pursue research into effective systems for personalized and adaptive learning," Janine Sikes, assistant vice president for media relations for UF, said in an email. "Since she wants to devote more time to research in this important area of online education, she decided to resign her administrative position in favor of a faculty position that will allow her to pursue these interests."
Phillips had given up her job as provost and executive vice president of ASU — a position she held since 2006. She took a substantial pay cut to return to UF -- from the $425,000 she earned as provost at ASU to $285,000 salary to run the online program here.
Meanwhile, her husband, Win Phillips, stepped down as COO in December and took a position with Innovation Square, UF's technology startup incubator downtown.
Betty Phillips, UF's provost from 1996 to 1999, was chosen in September by Glover from several finalists recommended by a university committee after a nationwide search -- three months after she gave a presentation to the UF Board of Trustees about ASU's program.
"She comes with a lot of experience and excitement," McCollough, who had led the initial planning of the online program, said at the time. "She will hit the ground running, once she gets read into the peculiarities of what we are doing."
UF was under the gun to get the online university up and running by Jan. 1 -- just six months after Gov. Rick Scott signed the bill into law that created the program. The state gave UF $10 million in startup money and $5 million a year for the next five years.
The program started off with five majors, with more to be added later in the year. Its website lists nine undergraduate majors with plans to expand to 35 majors and 24,000 students by 2024, with total annual revenues of $76 million.
The program currently has 583 students enrolled -- all of them transfer students. The first freshman class will be admitted in the fall.

Proceeds benefit the Katie Caples Foundation's organ donor education and awareness programs. To learn more about Katie Caples and how your fundraising saves lives, please visit here. Yes, Saves Lives. Please register to be an organ donor!
Katie Ride
The Katie Ride is a premier bicycle touring event catering to cyclists of all abilities. The annual fundraiser is held on beautiful Amelia Island ("Top 10 Island in the United States" - Conde Nast Traveler 2012 Readers' Choice Awards) and features routes of 63 miles, 34 miles, and 18 miles. The event was created in 2005 to raise awareness for organ donation and support the Katie Caples Foundation's nationally recognized organ donor education program. The 15th anniversary of the event is Saturday, April 13, 2019.
The Katie Walk was introduced in 2009 by popular demand as an alternative to the ride, and the Fun Run was added in 2014. Both the Walk and Fun Run are routed through Egans Creek Greenway and courses over uneven trails and paths. For more information on Egans Creek, please check out this link.
That is right! We've added this year a "fun" triathlon for all you folks interested in a new kind of challenge. Start with a 300 yard swim in the Atlantic Recreation Center pool, then the 18 mile road ride and finish with a 5K run through Egan's Creek. Not your traditional triathlon but WOW what a challenge. This is NOT a race, and it will not be chipped or timed. Registration is limited.
From avid cyclists to those who "pull out the beach cruiser a couple of times each year" - the ride truly caters to everyone. And if cycling isn't your thing you can join the increasingly popular Katie Walk. The Katie Run is a "fun run" and not timed. Our participants are committed to the cause of the Katie Caples Foundation, plus the routes are pretty darn amazing!
Nearly 120,000 adults and children in the United States are currently waiting for a life-saving organ transplant. On average, 22 people will die each day in the United States due to a lack of available organs for transplant. And while 95% of Americans say they support organ donation, less than 54% are currently registered. Funds raised through this event support the Katie Caples Foundation and its mission to increase the number of registered organ donors to eliminate the wait for individuals on the national transplant list.

A California state Senate committee recently passed a bill that purports to prevent the federal government from enforcing key provisions of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) of 2011 and 2012.
On June 25, the California State Senate Public Safety Committee unanimously (7-0) approved AB 351, the California Liberty Preservation Act. Although it passed the bill, the committee did add a requirement that the measure be re-submitted to the Appropriations Committee. That re-hearing is scheduled for August 12.
The bill's primary sponsor is current gubernatorial candidate Assemblyman Tim Donnelly (R-33rd District). Donnelly's bill specifically guarantees the right of citizens of California to be free from any federal law, including the NDAA, that would authorize their indefinite detention in violation of habeas corpus.
Known as the California Liberty Preservation Act, AB 351 is backed by a politically diverse coalition, including Taxpayers for Improving Public Safety; the Bill of Rights Defense Committee; the Tenth Amendment Center; the California American Civil Liberties Union; San Francisco Board of Supervisors President, David Chiu; The Libertarian Party of California; and the Siskiyou County Board of Supervisors.
Specifically, if enacted, the bill would shield from federal assault several fundamental constitutionally guaranteed civil liberties, "including the right of habeas corpus, the right to due process, the right to a speedy and public trial, and the right to be informed of criminal charges brought against him or her."
Relying on the 10th Amendment's reservation to the states and the people all powers not specifically delegated to the federal government in the Constitution, the bill is a constitutionally sound expression of state sovereignty.
In a press release issued by his office after the committee approved his bill, Assemblyman Donnelly recognizes his duty to resist attempts by Washington, D.C., to deny Americans of their most basic freedoms.
"The NDAA gives the executive branch — under not only President Obama, but also every future president — unprecedented power to detain US citizens without due process. This runs counter to the very principles that make America great, and violates our nation's commitment to the rule of law," said Assemblyman Donnelly.
He continued, "We have a moral duty to protect Californians from the disastrous consequences made possible by NDAA. When Constitutional protections are ignored, racist hysteria allows vulnerable groups to be targeted. It was not long ago we memorialized the tragedy of Japanese American internment camps on the floor of the California State Assembly. I am grateful for today's committee vote, which shows Californians that their representatives are serious about ensuring similar violations of freedom and human rights abuses never happen again within our State."
While text of the bill lays out specific ways in which the NDAA denies citizens many of the most basic constitutionally protected civil liberties, the surprising scope of the NDAA is still unfamiliar to most Americans.
President Barack Obama signed the latest National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) into law on January 2, renewing the power to apprehend and detain Americans indefinitely granted in the previous year's version.
The Fiscal Year 2014 version of the bill is currently working its way through Congress. At this time, many amendments that would have stricken some of the most pernicious provisions from the act have been defeated.
As for the most unconstitutional parts of the NDAA 2012 that remain in effect, a bit of history is in order.
On December 31, 2011, with the president's signing of that law, the writ of habeas corpus — a civil right so fundamental to Anglo-American common law history that it predates the Magna Carta — is voidable upon the command of the president of the United States. The Sixth Amendment right to counsel is also revocable at his will.
One of the most noxious elements of the NDAA is that it places the American military at the disposal of the president for the apprehension, arrest, and detention of those suspected of posing a danger to the homeland (whether inside or outside the borders of the United States and whether the suspect be a citizen or foreigner). The endowment of such a power to the president by the Congress is nothing less than a de facto legislative repeal of the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878, the law forbidding the use of the military in domestic law enforcement.
Furthermore, a key component of the NDAA mandates a frightening grant of immense and unconstitutional power to the executive branch. Under the provisions of Section 1021, the president is afforded the absolute power to arrest and detain citizens of the United States without their being informed of any criminal charges, without a trial on the merits of those charges, and without a scintilla of the due process safeguards protected by the Constitution of the United States.
Further, in order to execute the provisions of Section 1021 described in the previous paragraph, subsequent clauses (Section 1022, for example) unlawfully give the president the absolute and unquestionable authority to deploy the armed forces of the United States to apprehend and to indefinitely detain those suspected of threatening the security of the "homeland." In the language of this legislation, these people are called "covered persons."
The universe of potential "covered persons" includes every citizen of the United States of America. Any American could one day find himself or herself branded a "belligerent" and thus subject to the complete confiscation of his or her constitutional civil liberties and nearly never-ending incarceration in a military prison.
On the face of the bill, it would seem that Assemblyman Donnelly and the members of the Public Safety Committee are determined to protect their citizens from being seized and imprisoned under the provisions of the NDAA.
While AB 351, as well as Section 1029 of the current version of the NDAA purport to buttress the right to a trial for citizens and permanent residents, it does nothing to prevent their apprehension. Denial of habeas corpus (or a trial) comes later; it is the delirium, not the fever, in a manner of speaking.
Put simply, Californians would not need to worry about being held without charge if the president was not authorized in the same act to deploy the armed forces to round up the "suspects" and detain them indefinitely. Being apprised of the laws one is accused of having violated is important, but it's the detention and the manner of it that must be of more immediate concern to those who are alarmed about the new world order being defined by the NDAA.
Dan Johnson, the founder of People Against the NDAA (PANDA), also recognizes the holes in the California bill that could prove large enough to allow all sorts of tyranny to pass through.
"The NDAA is much bigger than the suspension of habeas corpus," Johnson wrote in a statement to The New American.
In that statement, Johnson discussed additional deficiencies in the California bill:
While AB351 is much stronger than other state laws passed in opposition to the NDAA, since it includes both the AUMF and any other federal law, it does not include the laws of war. In order to fix the root issue of the NDAA, and not just chop at the limbs, the Law of War must be countered in any true piece of anti-NDAA legislation.
Note: Executive Order 9066, which was used to detain 110k Japanese-Americans w/o trial, never said a thing about detention. It only allowed the law of war to be applied to a certain area, and gave the military jurisdiction over the same.
Finally, Johnson wrote:
Overall, we appreciate the effort. The very fact that California is introducing a law like this shows the willingness of the people and Assembly of California to stand up for the Constitutional rights of the people of their state.
However, this law will do nothing to protect those rights. It abdicates the responsibility of the state to stand in, not stand down, and leaves far too many loopholes….
Assemblyman Donnelly seems to understand this. In a press release he wrote, "This is not an issue of partisanship, but of freedom, which we must be vigilant to protect. Our Constitution affirms that no government is responsible for bestowing our rights; they are only entrusted with securing them."

Have you checked out the Scrapbook Update CHA Winter 2012 Sneak Peeks page lately? The Scrapbook Update staff has been hard at work scouring the internet to bring you the latest in new product releases and sneak peeks during this busy season, and I've been busily entering them into a single table to make it easy for our readers to stay updated on the latest and greatest from all your favorite manufacturers. The page just passed 100 links in the table and is growing quickly!!
If you're not familiar with the Sneak Peeks page, you can find it here, and we've worked hard to make it as easy as possible for you to find the information you need quickly. Want to see what's been posted since your last visit? Click on the "Updated" column header to sort peeks by the date they were entered. Want to see the new releases from your favorite manufacturer? Just sort by "Company." And if you're headed to the CHA show in Anaheim (in less than two weeks!), we also have a "Booth" column to help you plan your trip.
Be sure to visit the page often as updates are made several times per day. Believe it or not, all the current updates were made during the calmer part of release season. This week and next are going to be hopping as we start to see more input from manufacturers that have been keeping things under wraps. American Crafts (including Crate Paper and Studio Calico), Bella Blvd., and Basic Grey are just a few of the companies that are keeping their new releases quiet until the show date is a little closer.
If you haven't visited the Sneak Peeks page lately (or at all), here's a look at some of the new releases you're missing out on:
Graphic 45's sweetly vintage Little Darlings collection already attracted May's attention in her early CHA picks article.
Tim Holtz's new Alterations dies for Sizzix hit on some hot themes and provide some great basics.
My Mind's Eye has an amazing new release featuring the art of Rhonna Farrer.
Spellbinders has loads of new dies and the introduction of their new M-Bossabilities template line.
New collections from Glitz designs include a pretty travel line.
You can find this and so much more on the Scrapbook Update CHA Winter 2012 Sneak Peeks page. Be sure to bookmark it, leave it open in a tab on your browser, or perhaps even make it your home page!

University of Washington Student Conduct Code and Nursing Program Specific Essential Behaviors
All UW Bothell nursing students are expected to comply with the standards of behavior and academic conduct set forth in the University of Washington Student Conduct Code the UW Bothell Academic and Behavioral Conduct Policy, which explains how the Student Conduct Code is administered on the Bothell campus.
In addition, the UW Bothell School of Nursing and Health Studies has adopted a program-specific set of professional standards and essential behaviors for continuation in and graduation from the program. These professional standards and essential behaviors are explained in the following section entitled Essential Behaviors for Admission, Continuation and Graduation for UW Bothell, UW Seattle and UW Tacoma masters students and UW Tacoma BSN students.
All UW Bothell Nursing students are expected to meet these Essential Behaviors standards in addition to the University's general behavioral and academic conduct standards. Specific incidents of misconduct by UW Bothell Master of Nursing students may be subject to review under both sets of standards, and, in the case of a conflict, the student will at all times be held to the higher standard. In addition, within the context of a specific course, all grade assignments are made by the individual course instructor. Neither sets of standards or review processes limit decisions about course grades.
The Essential Behaviors document summarizes the specific nursing professional standards and essential behaviors and the process to be followed when a student shows a pattern of problematic behavior or a single, serious lapse in violation of these standards. Students should also be aware, however, that certain behavioral or professional misconduct (including but not limited to criminal misconduct, harassing or threatening behavior or the mistreatment of any patient) may be so seriously egregious that its consequences warrant immediate dismissal from the School of Nursing and Health Studies MN Program or the immediate imposition of other discipline.
