The website provides information about the HuGE Net and peer-reviewed synopses of epidemiologic aspects of human genes, prevalence of allelic variants in different populations, population-based disease risk information, gene-environment interaction, and quantitative data on genetic tests and services.
Institute for Child Health Policy
The Institute for Child Health Policy, a statewide Institution of Florida's State University System, was established in October 1986. Given the substantial changes in both the financing and organization attendant to the growth of managed health care, the Institute has focused its attention on children in managed care with special emphasis on children with special health care needs. Issues of access, utilization, cost, quality, and family involvement are principal areas of interest for the policy/program development, health services research, and evaluation programs.
This site provides information for women who are pregnant or are planning to become pregnant. Topics include infections, medications, and radiation and chemical exposure. The site also serves as a resource for healthcare professionals by providing abstracts from various peer-review journals that focus on perinatology.
National Council on Folic Acid (NCFA)
NCFA is a partnership of over 80 national organizations and associations, state folic acid councils, and government agencies whose mission is to improve health by promoting the benefits and consumption of folic acid. NCFA is managed by the National Healthy Mothers, Healthy Babies Coalition (www.hmhb.org) through a cooperative agreement with CDC. NCFA's goals are to reduce folic-acid preventable birth defects by recommending that women of childbearing age take 400 micrograms of synthetic folic acid daily from fortified foods and/or supplements, in addition to consuming food folate from a varied diet, and to communicate and promote emerging and new science on folic acid, especially relating to maternal and child health.
National Society of Genetic Counselors (NSGC)
NSGC is the leading voice, authority and advocate for the genetic counseling profession. The "Consumer Information" section of their website explains the role of genetic counselors. The site also provides contact information for genetic counselors for those seeking a referral, both nationally and internationally.

January 15 marked the launch of

the year.
Nearly $200,000 of additional ad-vance
gifts have been received or
pledged toward the $10 34 million
move. Two recent contributions
came from companies. Bethel re-ceived
a $24,000-grant from Nor-thern
States Power Company to
be donated in a three-year pro-gram.
The Andersen Foundation
of Andersen Widowwall Company
gave the college $10,000. Added
to these was an individual's be-quest
of $11,000.
The Seminary has also ac-knowledged
funds to finance a
Student Center on its campus.
Bodine Electric Company, Chi-cago,
Illinois, presented $8,000
in 1967 and pledged a similar
amount for 1968. However, this
is only part of a $75,000 gift

"new sound" of WBCS struck cam-pus
air waves via 1050 KC. Under
the direction of Mark Kingsbeck
and Bob Wall, the studios have
undergone a complete retailoring
during semester break and the
initial weeks of the new semester.
This new look is a big factor
behind the new WBCS sound per-vading
the campus confines. Both
the technical and program aspects
of the statio have been revamped.
A large donation of equipment
from KSTP, a commercial station
in the Twin Cities, paved the way
for the improvements.

and Wall.

Kingsbeck reports that the
studios have been completely re-wired
and remodeled. "We'll be
able to produce twice the quali-ty
sound than what was pre-viously
broadcast." He added
that the "new system will cut
out past malfunctions and a lot of
technical difficulties that were
inherent in the previous system."
Wall, as program director, be-lieves
that "WBCS should be, can
be, and must be a functional part
of the Bethel community to justify
its existence." Consequently he
feels the radio station should give
an accurate reflection of life as it
is at Bethel. All aspects of the
college — students, purposes, the
community as a whole — should
be accurately represented.
The station will work towards
this goal by closely working
with, and representing various
departments. Wall anticipates
using some of the group talent

both vocal and instrument-al.
He hopes to use selections
from the band and choir as well

will begin at later times, 9 a.m.

Representing the "yes" position
by its mere preSence on campus,
the Army personnel confronted the
interested onlooker with the pos-sibility
of an Army career or per-haps
enlistment as an alternative
to the draft.
The "no" position was upheld
by a group of students sharing
the common bond of resistance
to the war in Viet Nam. The
specific positions represented
were those of non-cooperation,
opposition to all governmental
action; conscietious objection,
opposition to the war on moral
and religious grounds; "McCar-thyism"
opposition to the war
within the existing power struc-ture;
and a general opposition
to the war with no specific or-ganization.
The "no" position was armed
with a battery of pamphlets and
folders primarily from the Twin
Cities Draft Information Center
and McCarthy Headquarters.
The "so what" position was sup-ported
by Paul Erickson and "the

Programming includes a lib-eral
amount of sacred music. Ac-cording
to Wall, "Just as the
Christian environment is inher-ent

"Unfortunately," Barnes contin-ued,
"those of us in higher edu-cation
apparently have not done a
very good job of communicating
to the public what higher educa-tion
is about. The primary task of
a college or university is not to
train youth for job slots, nor serve
as national resource centers, nor
to 'contain' studets until society
is ready to absorb them into the
job market."
The purpose of higher educa-tion,
Barnes stated, is to educate.
Although this includes prepara-tion
for a specialized profession
and acquisition of knowledge, it
is more than this.
Among other things, "it means
that a student should develop a
critical attitude of investigation,
become capable of making hide-pendent
judgments, liberated from
prejudice, and excited about the
adventure of learning. In other
words, education should prepare
one to live fully and meaningful-ly

Against this background of general expansion Bethel
represents a startling exception. In the face of rising educa-tional
costs and the increasing need for expansion, Bethel's
alotment from the Conference has remained relatively con-stant.
In addition Federal aid as a possible alternative was
eliminated by the Conference at its last annual meeting.
In the past few years many competent scholars have
left Bethel's campus and have not been adequately replaced.
Our salary scale is woefully below the national average and as
competent, dedicated men leave, the present lack of funds af-fords
little hope of replacement. As a result of the rising edu-cational
costs, the lack of scholarship funds, and the decline
in academic standards, Bethel is finding it increasingly diffi-cult
to attract promising, evangelical students.
The present situation is the result of many factors; how-ever,
the basic problem is the fact that the Conference is
dominated by an element that does not have a genuine ap-preciation
of education or the educated person. What sup-port
Bethel does receive from the Conference is often based
on a misconception of Bethel's purpose. Many see Bethel
as an intellectual "hothouse" whose purpose it is to care-fully
grow Christians, preferably of the Baptist General
Conference species.
Here the student is to be protected from adverse condi-tions,
i.e., worldly vices, "secular" ideas, and people who dis-agree
with him, and nurtured on the essentials of the "faith"
which seem to be fun, fellowship, and a minimal acquaintance
with the Bible.
The truly educated person is held in disdain because his
questioning attitude and his ability to make critical, informed
judgments on the basis of a distinctively Christian value
system often result in the rejection of comfortable beliefs.

Does God Need?
To the Editor:
As a "student" at Bethel Col-lege—
those who know me better
can best appreciate the use of the
quotes—I have had many and di-verse
ambitions, interests, and
lines of pursuit.
Like most students who are con-cerned
with the role and future
of Bethel College, I've had the
urge many times to write a "letter
to the editor," expressing my con-cerns,
making a point, or simply
sounding off a beef. After nearly
four and one-half years, I'm final-ly
getting around to it, for I feel
I definitely have something to say.
The writing of this letter was
triggered in part by an article in
this column (Feb. 15), "Is Bethel
. . .?" by Al Nasman, a seminarian,
and former classmate of mine. I,
too, share his concerns as to the
changing scene at Bethel, but
would like to suggest that he en-tirely
'missed the boat' as to as-signing
its blame.
So we lost our Roy Butler's, our
Robert Mounce's, our Wally Pete's.
We lost these intelligent minds to
other fields of Chritsian endeavor.
Someone once said, "As New
Hampshire goes, so goes the Na-tion."
Can we therefore say, "As But-ler,
Petersen, Mounce, and Jor-don
go, so goes Bethel College?"
I don't think so. Look around, Mr.
Nasman. We still have our Dr.
Bob's, our Art Lewis', our Doc
Daltons', our Gary Collins', our
Bob Berglunds', and thank God
This discussion causes me to
reflect on the ideas of a Bethel
seminarian of deep theological
thought of a few years past, who
believed strongly n his heart that
God did not NEED him to com-plete
His work on this earth.
Nor does He NEED me, nor you.
Nor does He NEED these brilliant
minds our community has lost, in
order to continue Christ's cause
on our campus. Probably the best
example of this was the tragic
loss a year ago Christmas of Beth-el's
own Dr. Bohne—a man whose
Lynn Bergfalk, Clarion editor,
announced last week that printing
and mailing costs have forced the
paper to increase its subscription
rates, effective this semester. The
mind was great and abilities many,
but whose ministry with us was
deemed over by his Savoir. God
does not NEED us. God does not
NEED. If He did, He would not
be God. Rather, we need Him.
Who, then, is the cause of this
changing scene? May I suggest the
student body itself. What have we
done to influence these men to
stay? And what have we done to
influence these men to leave?
We've been reminded many
times in our lives at Bethel that
we — we the student body — are
Bethel College. Not our faculty,
nor our administration, nor our
image and reputation as a Chris-tian
school of higher learning—but
we the student body are Bethel

Dear Reader:
Perhaps ten minutes after you

But does it really matter if it is
ten minues from now — or ten
It is rather strange that we find
such solace in this interval of
time, full knowing that death is
inevitable. And, as we survey our
pencils and our buttons and our
shoelaces, we realize that these
mere dimestore articles will long
outlast us.
But this inevitable last ride is
not the only outrage, for at the
very minute that we run our bath
water there is blight, plaque, dis-crepancy,
agony, starvation, irrevo-cability,
frustration and finitude
raging in every enclave.

printing costs have risen, as well
as postal rates. The last postal in-crease
in January boosted the Clar-ion's
mailing cost from four to six
cents an issue.
Bergfalk revealed that the rate
for a subscription has not been
enough to pay the actual cost of
the subscription. (The printing
cost per paper is relatively high
because of the limited circulation.)
The increase in rates has been in
the planning stage for some time,
and the 2c jump in mailing cost
per copy made the measure an im-mediate

also offer subscriptions for the
remainder of this year and both
semesters of next year for an even

all these tragedies are raging. And
to this festering world sitting on
Death Row, Thomas Howard brings
Christ the Tiger.
He is not the God swaddled in
prayer meetings and annotated Bi-bles
and cultic orthodoxy. Rather
He is Christ the Tiger who brings
redemption to our fragmentation
and havoc, and hope to our un-certitude
and irrevocability.
He asks us to "Return, return,
and think again what I have asked
of yau: to follow justice, and love
mercy, and do your job of work,
and love one another, and give
me the worship of your heart —
your heart — and be merry and
thankful and lowly and not pom-pous
and gaunt and sere."
But to follow this Christ involves
an amount of risk, for the pickets
and wickets which we have erected
to guarantee the safety of our re-ligion
are plundered. And our self
getting and opting for personal ec-stasies
are in the balance.
Howard says, "there is this great
light that has appeared in the
murk, like a morning star. It is
there, silent and glorious. An odd
road marker. But perhaps a man
is asked to go that way on the
supposition that it is not all a
ghastly cheat. Yes, Perhaps that is
what is asked."

Words To A Thief
There are a few things about
Bethel that bother me. Most are
only minor and can be overlooked,
but the one thing that really gets

that goes on around campus.
A major target of thieves seems
to be posters and signs. The pos-ters
aren't that important after
the event has taken place. How-ever,
signs are quite a different
The one in particular that I am
thinking of is the new plastic sign
that was on the door of the radio
station for less than two days:
WBCS 1050 KC. These signs re-tail
for 30 cents per letter plus
10 cents per square inch.
When this sum is multiplied by
all the many other signs that are
missing from the campus, it hard-ly
seems like petty thievery any
more. I hope whoever "borrowed"
the sign from WBCS will put it
up straight when they return it.

"Disruption," Barnes noted,
"is difftrent from responsible

involves a very small fraction of
students in colleges or universi-ties
throughout the country. Re-sponsible
dissent respects the
basic educational goals of a
learning institution, and involves
thoughtful examination and re-sponsible
"This ivolvement, whether we
agree with a stand or not," Barnes
asserted, "is not antiethical to the

Frosh Reflect Over Semester;
College Life Changes Attitudes
Page 4 the CLARION
Cecil M. Lindblom, pastor of the
Belmont Street Church in Wor-cester,
and John (Jack) H. Berge-son,
Minnesota Conference director
of missions, have completed what
might be described as a Bethel
short course for pastors over the
past 25 years. Each has the dis-tinction
of attending Founders
Week since it began in 1943. They
plan to be on campus again this
year for the event.
Both speak of the value over the
years of the time and effort to
attend. Lindblom refers to the 25
extra weeks he has had on campus
as a "spiritual oasis during the
year which adds immeasurably to
the inner man." And Bergeson
mentioned introduction of the
workshop and seminar idea as a
"tremendous innovation" which
have "helped to acquaint me in
areas I have little time to read."
Bergeson drove an old Model A
Ford to Bethel from Grand Forks
to be present for the first week
and has attended from points in
Minnesota, Nebraska and Colorado.
Lindblom acknowledged the
churches which he has served as
having "always included arrange-ments
for my participation in this
week of blessing." He has held
pastorates in the Upper Midwest
and more recently in Massachu-setts.
Both Bergeson and Lindblom
have an abundance of experience
to recount from the years. One
which may be hard to beat as re-corded
in Bergerson's diary recalls
that he was campus dining hall
steward in 1944, having returned
to complete his degree. The diary
states that 450 people were served
in 12 minutes at the banquet that
year which was held in the old col-lege

Now that the first semester is
history, the Frosh have had time
to reflect upon their first four and
one-half months of college life.
Warnings, such as "if you make
it through the first semester, you'll
make it through all four years,"
were recalled as most of the class
enrolled for second semester. Na-
Aurally, each one recalls a partic-ularly
unforgettable event, but a
number of the Frosh expressed
similar experiences and attitudes.
Academically, there seemed to
be an initial state of shock as
classes were faced with 50-75
pages of reading per assignment.
Many found it difficult to or-ganize
time and to study pro-ductively.
By the time mid-terms rolled
around, however, most felt they
were beginning to "get in the
groove." For some, the arrival of
D-slips necessitated a change in
There were various reactions to

of tension on campus until after
it was over. The Western Civ. fi-
The national circulation of The
Worker, official rag of the Com-munist
Party, has suddenly in-creased
100,000 with publication
of its current issue. The current
issue retains the previous format
and style; only the writing has
improved, according to the new
publishers, Young Americans for
Freedom (YAF).
The Minnesota YAF College
YAF chapters are distributing
thousands of copies of the facsi-mile
of the party rag on the cam-puses

College of Saint Thomas,

nal remained true to form, as was
demonstrated by "the kind of
hush" that fell over the campus
when it was finished.
Some found it difficult to be
classified "average" after four
or more years of life on top of
the class. Nearly everyone ex-pressed
the opinion that their
study habits had changed, and
they were much more satisfied
with themselves than at the be-ginning
of the year.
In the spiritual realm, most stu-dents
felt they had become more
mature. The discovery that Bethel
is not a "bible camp existence"
gave a few students a jolt. Many
realized that it is too easy to be-come
spiritually stagnant in a
Christian environment.
Of course it hasn't been all work
and no play. Who can forget Fresh-man
Retreat, Homecoming, Nik
Dag, not to mention the dorm ses-sions,
all night studying and im-promptu
parties? It was an en-riching
experience, but for the
Bethel Class of '71, that fateful
first semester is over.
The special issue, published in
recognition of the fiftieth anniver-sary
of the Russian Revolution,
November 7th, is being distributed
the evening of November 6th and
day of November 7th by college
students who are YAF members.
"YAF is the nation's largest poli-tical
student group dedicated to
the principles of private enter-prise,
limited government and in-dividual
responsibility," according
to Mike O'Connor, State Chairman
of Minnesota Young Americans
for Freedom. "YAF was founded
in 1960 and stresses both educa-tion
and political activism. With
30,000 members, YAF has more
members than the entire 'New
Left' combined."
YAF published a special edition
of The Worker in June, 1966, and
New York YAF members distribu-ted
the newspaper to delegates en-tering
the Communist Party's na-tional
convention. The hard-hitting
four page satire on the Communist
line warned its readers: "The
Worker is too boring and poorly
designed to be accurately copied."

"Feb. 23, 1943 — Today is the
birthday of — Founders Week."
Dr. G. Arvid Hagstrom, then pres-ident
emeritus of Bethel Institute
(the junior college and seminary)
was writing in his diary when no-tations
on the day's events ran co-incidentally
into a line provided
for birthday reminders and brought
about the above statement.
The date was one day off —
Founders Week actually had been
born Monday, Feb. 22, 1943 —
but Dr. Hagstrom's accidental dec-laration
calls us to note that Foun-ders
Week has now grown adult,
and is celebrating a 25th birthday
beginning last Monday.
Founders Week was born
through the creativity of Dr.
Henry C. Wingblade, who had
been acting president of Bethel
institute for 18 months when
the first series of meetings was
held Feb. 22-26, 1943. He joined
together a traditional Founders
Day program held on the Fel,
20th birthday of Bethel founder
John Alexis Edgren, with a five-day
series of pastors' conferen-ces
co-sponsored by the Minne-sota
Baptist Conference. In 1943,
pastors came to the first Found-ers
Week from as far away as
Michigan and Kansas.
As a service for pastors, these
first meetings utilized Conference
pastors as speakers and directed
its addresses toward pastoral needs.
day tournament. This came to be
known as the "Olympic Truce."
In the latter part of the 19th
century, the Frenchman Baron de
Coubertin, in his wish to further
international harmony, worked to
get the Olympic Games renewed.
He succeeded and the International
Olympic Committee was formed
which he was President of from
1896 to 1925.
The first Olympic Games took
place in 1896 at Athens and have
been played every four years (ex-cluding
1916, 1940, and 1944 dur-ing
World Wars — the "Olympic
Truce" was disregarded).
Various members of meetings each
day culminated in evening rallies
at various Twin Cities churches.
Founders Day itself still was
individually celebrated that first
year, through an afternoon presen-tation
Thursday, February 5, at
which a portrait of Dr. Hagstrom
was unveiled.
The next afternoon, Dr. Wing-blade
was inaugurated as Bethel
president, with Dr. Peter Stian-son
of Northern Baptist Semi-nary,
Chicago, conferring an
honorary Doctor of Divinity de-gree
upon him, and Dr. Dana,
president of Central Baptist
Theological Seminary, Kansas
City, presenting the major ad-dress,
"The New Challenge to
Christian Education." Dr. Wing-blade,
who was during his ad-ministration

three building programs on the
campus plus a transition from
junior college to four-year col-lege,
significantly titled his re-marks

In 1944, Robert G. LeTourneau,
the noted Christian industrialist,
drew much local attention as
speaker at the Founders Week
banquet, which replaced Founders
Day as a reminder of Bethel's his-torical
traditions. In 1945, when
Bethel Institute itself took over
full sponsorship of the Founders
Week program, Dr. Will Houghton,
and Dr. Alvin Hause, Baptist min-ister
in Kansas City, were speak-ers.
In 1946, the first unifying
theme of a Founders Week ser-ies
was used: "The Church of
Christ In a World of Ruin." That
program also included several
afternoon forums, while the 1947
program included morning and
afternoon forums, thus fore-shading
the educational services
for pastors which have become
common to Founders Week.
Also in these years, college mu-sic
groups became regular partici-pants
in the all-campus worship
services. Faculty members became
important to Founders Week dur-ing
this period and have continued
to be so, particularly in workshop
Towards the end of the first dec-ade,
an afternoon basketball game
late in the week was introduced.
For many years this game tested
rivalry with Northwestern College
of Minneapolis. Occasional wrest-ling
matches have also been held
during the week.
A completed Fieldhouse-Aud-itorium
facilitated the growth of
Founders Week, and was first
used in 1953, on the tenth anni-versary
of the program's incep-tion.
It was there that on Feb.
18, 1955, a second Founders
Week inauguration placed Dr.
Carl Lundquist in office. He him-self,
as president-elect, had
been a speaker at the meetings
the year before.
In 1959 a program for women
visitors was introduced among the
special interest sessions, having
evolved from women's coffee hours
established several years earlier.
A series was given on "The Chris-tian
Woman and Her Spiritual
Growth." The women's emphasis
has continued, usually in two

Women Cagers Find GoingTough
As Losses Even Season's Mark
A 7/10-mee
by Jerry Loomis
This afternoon at 4:00 P.M., the Bethel College fieldhouse
will be packed with spectators when the annual Founders
Week basketball game is played. The excitement will be great
and the cheering intense as the Royals seek to defeat North-western
of Iowa.
Our varsity already played the Iowans this past Decem-ber
and went down to defeat by a score of 91-72. Northwestern
is led by VanderBerg (he is shooting an overall 71 percent
from the field), and Arends.
Bethel goes into this game with an excellent Founder's
Week record. Since the tradition began in 1953, the ,Royals
have won 13 and lost only one of the Founders Week games.
The guys are always "up" psychologically, and put on an
inspired show for our conference leaders.
This is what the record shows:

Bad weather conditions made it impossible for North-western
of Iowa to make the trip to Bethel for last year's
game. As a result, an intra-squad game was played instead.
With its fine record of Founders Week victories to spurn
them on, the Bethel varsity will be going all out in an effort
to _avenge their earlier season loss to the Iowans. Be there
and cheer for number 14!

In Bethels' three latest games,
the Royals have dropped two of
three: Bethel 88, Northland 85;
Bemidji 83, Bethel 73; and Morris
115, Bethel 90.
In the varsity's repeat victory
over Northland, four of Royals
scored in double figures. Ron Pe-derson
led the way with 33 points,
followed by Andy Feldman with
17, Dan Larson with 14, and Low-ell
Richardson with 13.
After "blowing" a 15 point lead
in the final period, the Royals
came back strong in an overtime
period to pull it out of the fire.
Lang and Lake lead the North-land
attack with 26 and 20 points
On the following Monday night,
February 12, the Royals lost to
Bemidji in a hard-fought battle.
Highpoint men for the winners
were Dan Christenson with 21, and
Max LaVelle with 20. However, the
key to their victory was the ex-cellent
playmaking of Bemidji's 5'-
8" guard, Richie Glas also bagged
14 points.
Bethel was led by Pederson, Lar-son
and Feldman. Ron dropped in
31, Dan "hooped" 13 points, and
Andy chipped in with 12.
Finally, last Saturday night,
Bethel ran into a very hot Morris
quintet. The Cougars shot a fine
49% from the floor, connecting
on 47 of 90 shots. Forward John
Nordgaard (also Morris starting
quarterback) led the barrage with
34 counters, while both center
Doug Maclver and guard Make
Tate canned 26.
Pederson rimmed 32 and Dick
Robertson 26 in the losing cause.
Earlier this season, the Royals
lost at home to Morris by a score
of 76-72.

Last Saturday night, the Bethel
College wrestling team went down
to defeat at the hands of Minne,
soa Morris by a score of 23-15.
Highlights for Bethel included:
Bob Oson's recording of 5 points
via a pin; Dave Anderson's come
from behind victory over his op-ponent—"
Andy," down 7-1 in the
final period, used a guillotine to
pin his man and thus picked up 5
points; 3 points on a decision by
Kurt Dokken; 2 points by Greg
Ekbom as a result of a draw; and
Barry Anderson's hard-fought 10-
8 loss to a very tough opponent.
The Royals were hurt by 2 for-feits,
costing them 10 points.

After winning three consecutive
ball games, the Bethel Women's
basketball team suffered two de-feats
at the hands of Augsburg
and River Falls. The losses evened
their season record which now
stands at 3-3.
In the Augsburg game, Bethel's
cagers had considerable trouble
controlling the ball, and numer-ous
turnovers contributed to the
loss. Unlike some of the teams
Bethel has faced this year, the
Augsburg team played a fast and
more aggressive type of game.
Bethel could not come from be-hind,
and they fell to a 34-22 de-feat.
Barb Lindman led the Bethel
squad with 14 points and Karla
Ask added 4.
River Falls was seeking to
avenge their earlier loss to Bethel,
and were successful as they won
by a score of 35-23. Once again
Bethel was plagued wtih control
problems, and in addition, their
shooting was extremely cold. This
was vividly illustrated at the free-throw
line where Bethel sank only
3 of 10 shots.
In the first half River Falls
pulled ahead with an 8-point lead,
and although Bethel seemed to
come alive in the second half, they
could not make up the difference.

USB Super 16 Port Hub
Never have to choose which gadget gets the juice
- Giant USB Hub with 16 ports
- Connect up to 2 PCs to the same hub
- Power up all your USB gadgets and toys at once
When meeting a new person, the instant you tell them you work at ThinkGeek, you get interesting reactions. Most of them are "OMG, you're so lucky!" (Yep, we are!) The best one heard recently by one of our monkeys was, "ThinkGeek... that's the place with all the USB stuff, right?" It sure is! If it's cool and powered by USB, we probably have it. Problem is, most computers only have 2-4 USB ports. How are you supposed to choose between your humping dog and your pet rock?
With the 16 Port USB Hub, you don't have to make that decision. Plug in your phone, iPod, flash drive, external HD, digicam, SnowBot, fiber optic Christmas tree, plasma ball, jellyfish mood lamp, pet rock, turntable, robot owl, humping dog, Lilliput mini monitor, LED beverage cooler, and missile launcher - at once. Its built-in power supply ensures you don't need another AC adapter and there's even a switch that allows you to switch the hub between two computers. Just don't come crying to us when you win the award for "Most Annoying Cubicle Ever" at work.
Product Specifications
- USB 2.0 hub with a whopping 16 ports

OXFORD, Miss. (AP) Murphy Holloway scored 15 points, Reginald Buckner added 13 and Mississippi cruised to a 76-50 victory over McNeese State on Tuesday.
Holloway missed most of the first half after picking up two early fouls, and the Rebels looked sluggish on their way to a 39-30 halftime lead. But the senior returned in the second half to score 12 of 15 of his points. He finished 7 of 7 from the field and added nine rebounds
Marshall Henderson came into the game leading the Southeastern Conference with 22 points per game, but scored just nine points.
The Rebels (4-0) were without Derrick Millinghaus, a 5-foot-10 freshman guard who had surgery to repair a torn meniscus on Tuesday. He's averaging 9.7 points and three assists per game. He's expected to miss about four weeks.
McNeese State (1-3) was led by Desharick Guidry's 14 points.
