Imagine a nearly perfect mirror surface spread across the Earth stretching out miles in every direction. Sounds like something right out of Alice's Wonderland but Salar de Uyuni is very very real. When covered with a thin sheet of water, this 4,000+ square-mile salt flat creates a stunning reflection of everything above it.
Over 40,000 years ago this part of Bolivia was a prehistoric lake. Today, the area is home to a smattering of flamingos, some tourist hotels (including a salt hotel) and and an estimated 10 billion tons of salt. Just imagine getting lost in this surrealistic environment! More below and at Neatorama, Sarifb and Fogonazos

The United States Department of Education is today releasing the results of a study of 2011 scores from the National Assessment of Education Progress exam. Summarized by the department's National Center of Education Statistics, the study shows both good news for students across the United States, but also where our students stack up to peers around the world. Massachusetts took the top ranking of results within the US but not overall, coming in behind some other nations. In an era of global competitiveness, it is notable to see both gains that have been had, and benchmarks still to reach. Read more here

Report Card: Texas vs. Nebraska
Nebraska suffered a disappointing 20-13 loss to the hands of Texas on Saturday. Here's the final report card grade out.
Next week Nebraska will take on Oklahoma State in Stillwater at 2:30 pm CST on ABC
Quarterback: D
Nebraska knew Texas was going to challenge quarterback Taylor Martinez, but I think it was even more than they could've imagined on Saturday. Martinez averaged just 1.6 yards per carry and was 4-of-12 in the passing game for 63 yards. NU really never got good field position either, and you could tell the pressure of being down in an early 10-0 hole effected Martinez. It just wasn't his day and he needs a bounce back performance next week at Oklahoma State. I did think Zac Lee played fine for what he was asked to do when he came into the game, but he didn't get much help from NU's receivers when the Huskers needed some plays.
Running back: F
A fumble by Roy Helu led to a Texas touchdown to make the game 10-0 midway through the first quarter. Rex Burkhead also dropped a wide open touchdown the Husker offense desperately needed to get going.
Wide receiver/Tight end: F
Niles Paul continues to make plays you don't expect to see out of a senior leader. Paul had three drops that all would've been huge plays and one that went right through his hands in the end zone for a touchdown. Brandon Kinnie also dropped a fourth down pass in the end zone on NU's final possession of the fourth quarter. In a day that should've been about big plays by the Husker offense, all anybody is talking about are the dropped passes by NU's veteran wide receivers. This was a very disappointing performance by this group of players.
Offensive line: F
Nebraska's offensive line got handled up front by Texas similar to the way they did in the Big 12 championship game. The Huskers averaged just 2.8 yards per carry on 44 rushing attempts - that's not going to win you very many football games. NU constantly faced third-and-longs because of poor blocking up front by the line on early running downs.
Defensive line: D
Nebraska's front four got very little to no push on Texas. It was nothing like the Big 12 Championship game when the Huskers owned the Longhorns up front. Very rarely did you see the front four making plays in the backfield. Cameron Meredith had the lone tackle for loss on the game for the front four, and it went for just 1 yard. Ndamukong Suh made more plays on one drive against Texas last year than the Huskers made the entire game today.
Linebacker: C
It was a very quiet day for Nebraska's linebackers. Lavonte David was the only one who played in the base defense and he finished with 10 tackles and 1 TFL. Will Compton got on the field in the goal line package for a couple of plays on Saturday. My question is would Nebraska have benefited by playing with two or three linebackers on the field knowing Texas was going to run it nearly every play? This scheme with no linebackers on the field obviously worked great a year ago with Suh and Phillip Dillard, but it doesn't seem as effective this year.
Secondary: C
To Texas's credit they didn't let Nebraska's secondary take this game over to make plays. Garrett Gilbert was just 4-of-16 for 62 yards passing, but most importantly he had no interceptions. Gilbert threw the ball away when nothing was there because he had confidence in his defense. The real problem with the secondary was some of the open field tackling, particularly by Rickey Thenarse who whiffed in space more than a couple of times. It was also Thenarse that got beat downfield on a 41 yard pass to running back Foswhitt Whittaker.
Special teams: C+
Alex Henery made his only two field goal attempts of the day and Eric Hagg scored NU's only touchdown on a school record 95 yard punt return off a pooch punt attempt in the fourth quarter. The play fooled nobody and Nebraska was ready for the pooch and took advantage of the play. However, Texas's special teams dominated the game in terms of controlling field position. It was very frustrating to see UT kicking the ball into the wind rugby style and still landing punts inside the 5 yard line. Nebraska needs to do a better job of fielding these balls. This absolutely killed the offense and gave them no field position to work with. Curtis Brown's 24 yard punt return in the first quarter also resulted in points for the Texas offense.
