From January 1919 to July, he taught biology to Canadian army personnel returning from the First World War in a makeshift training centre in Ripon, Yorkshire.This six month course at the Khaki University was accepted by Canadian universities as equal to a full year of coursework. <mask> reflected on his experience in education in this setup in a Mysore University publication noting how the lack of a proper building hardly affected the aim of providing education. From the 1920s <mask> was increasingly responsible for administration with the department of sericulture (but moved back under the director of industries and commerce in 1923) and the Civil Veterinary and Amrut Mahal Departments placed under the care of his department. <mask> helped establish a number of new institutions including the Central Coffee Research Institute at Balehonnur in 1925 with an original eighteen acres of coffee land leased out by C.S. Crawford. <mask>'s research in the 1930s included studies on coffee rust, Hemileia vastatrix, and a disease of areca caused by Phytophthora palmivora (then called P. arecae). He also studied a mycoplasma infection that affected sandal and caused sandal spike.As a research administrator <mask> recruited and mentored the Indian entomologist K. Kunhikannan and the mycologist M. J. Narasimhan who worked as assistants. In 1921 and 1933 he introduced Agromyzid flies (Ophiomyia lantanae) from Hawaii for the control of Lantana. <mask> suggested experiments on X-ray induced mutation for breeding new sugarcane varieties based on observations of similar attempts on Tobacco at the Klaten Experimental Station in Java. These mutation experiments were then conducted by Venkatrao K. Badami. <mask> was involved in the passing of the Diseases and Pests Act (1917), the first attempt in India to manage pests through legislation and was aimed at control of the white stem borer in coffee, a major export commodity from Mysore. The act made it compulsory

Mass campaigns involving school children to collect hairy caterpillars for control were also novel.<mask> helped introduce improved agricultural equipment including the Holder knapsack sprayer and the Kolar mission plough imported from the United States by the Kolar Mission Institute and later modified and locally produced as the "Mysore plough". <mask> also examined economic policies and was an advisor to many government bodies both in Mysore State and on deputation to the government of British India. In 1933, Mysore Sugar Company (or Mysugar), the first joint-stock private company in India with the government as a majority shareholder was established to process sugar at the Mysore Sugar Factory (begun 15 January 1934) produced by sugarcane farmers in the (then called the Irwin canal, now Visveshwariah) canal irrigated region of Mandya. The farmers were contracted to sell all their produce through what was then a novel "oppige" (Kannada for agreement or contract, making it among the oldest examples of industrial "contract farming") system. The first laboratory for breeding parasites to help control sugarcane stem borer was established in 1935-36 at Mandya following research begun in 1933.As a member of the board of agriculture in India, <mask> headed various advisory committees and was responsible for approving the establishment of a dedicated statistical unit at the Imperial Agricultural Research Institute. A grasshopper genus, <mask>ia and another species Parahieroglyphus colemani were named after him by Ignacio Bolívar. <mask> made an extensive study of <mask>ia sphenarioides, a pest in some regions that affected sorghum.The scale insect Coccus colemani found on coffee was named after him by his assistant entomologist Kunhi Kannan in 1918. <mask> was interested in the role of natural parasites and predators for the control of pests. He took up measures to control Opuntia in Kolar district that included manual removal, their conversion of into green manure, and the use of cochineal insects in their control. He reared and studied many

In 1925 <mask> briefly returned to Canada due to ill health to take up a position in the Toronto University department of botany. In 1927 a part-time position of plant pathologist in Ontario was created.He worked briefly on the dead arm of grapes caused by Cryptosporella viticola. <mask> did not continue for long and resigned to return to India. In 1929 he published a report on the work done in Mysore and how it compared with the recommendations made by the Royal Commission on Agriculture in India. <mask> was made Companion of the Order of the Indian Empire in 1931. Working again for a few years in Mysore, <mask> retired from his position as Director of Agriculture in 1934 and left India to work at Toronto University, teaching and researching genetics. He worked on the cytology of Gasteria and Allium in 1936. In 1948 he studied the cytology of a grasshopper.<mask> was married twice. His first wife Mary MacDonald Urquhart (born Oct 19, 1882) died on May 10, 1918 in the Biligirirangan Hills from diabetes and was buried in the Honnametti estate of R.C. Morris. They had a son John Urquhart <mask>. <mask> married Phebe Ropes (born 1890), daughter of Willis H. Ropes of Danvers, Massachusetts, an artist trained in Boston, on 23 May 1923. They had two daughters and a son. Towards the end of 1953 <mask> visited Karnataka privately, but on hearing about his visit, the then chief minister Kengal Hanumanthaiah declared him a state guest and organized a tour of Karnataka to examine the state of agriculture and to visit the places where he had worked.Shortly after returning to Canada in 1954, while driving to his lab in Saanichton through dense fog, his car hit a culvert and he was killed.

<mask> (born 1952) is an American artist specializing in papier collé. Early life and education
<mask> was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, growing up in the borough's Bensonhurst neighborhood. During her childhood, the family made frequent summer trips to the amusement parks and beaches of nearby Coney Island, which would have a later effect on her art. She graduated from New York's High School of Art and Design, and earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in 1974 from the Pratt Institute. Career

Coney Island
From 1975 to 1977, Marano worked as a studio assistant to the American Pop artist Robert Indiana, who had been commissioned by the Santa Fe Opera to create set and costume designs for their Bicentennial production of Gertrude Stein’s opera "The Mother of Us All." As part of Indiana's design team for the project, Marano was introduced to papier collé, a process of cutting paper into defined shapes and adhering them to a flat surface. This method was used to create maquettes for Indiana's set and costume designs for the Santa Fe Opera's production.Marano's introduction to the papier collé method, her exposure to Indiana's use of bright color "in his paintings of words and numbers in which he infused his own autobiographical messages," plus Indiana's interest in popular culture and the culture of Coney Island, proved influential to Marano's later work. This reintroduction of Coney Island into Marano's thinking led to her renewed interest in the neighborhood. By the late 1970s, Marano was concentrating on Coney Island imagery almost exclusively. The earliest image in the series was "Shooting Gallery #2", created

texts: in papier collé in 1977. Marano was also becoming involved in Coney Island's revival of cultural activities, and in 1981 she participated in an outdoor art show on West 10th Street, adjacent to the Cyclone Rollercoaster, exhibiting an eleven-foot construction of the Parachute Jump, called "Flowers From an Unkept Garden." Through this exhibition, Marano met artist Richard Eagan, with whom she co-founded the Coney Island Hysterical Society in 1982, whose roster of artists and Coney Island supporters grew to 400 members. In 1983, <mask> and Eagan collaborated on a 2200 square foot painted mural called "Steeplechase Come Back," an homage to Steeplechase Park, which had been demolished in 1966.Additional collaborations with Eagan continued, including an elaborate project organizing the restoration the defunct "Dragon’s Cave" ride. <mask> served as Art Director, and together with ten other artists restored and repainted the cars and interior scenes, renaming the ride the Spookhouse. The project was further enhanced by donations from Harvey Fierstein of sets and props designed by Bill Stabile for Fierstein's then-closed off-Broadway production, "Spookhouse." Though Marano worked in various media, including linoleum cut, paint, serigraph, and drawing, papier collé became her primary process, and her imagery remained focused on Coney Island. Creating images of the amusement parks’ rides such as the Zipper, the Wonder Wheel entrance depicted in "Thrills," and others, led Marano to treat her imagery as a comprehensive expression of Coney Island's historic and cultural significance, particularly in light of the amusement parks’

texts: decay and their threatened demise. A 1987 papier collé work titled "Lionel’s Chair"  expressed this idea in its depiction of the original Thunderbolt (1925 roller coaster) ride, with the Parachute Jump in the background and in the foreground the empty chair of the Thunderbolt's deceased night watchman, Lionel Butler, who "with the help of two dogs and a shotgun, guarded the ride in its last days." In 1990, Marano titled the Coney Island series "American Dream-Land," a name referencing the common ethos of the American Dream and Coney Island's Dreamland amusement park, which burned to the ground in 1911."American Dream-Land" became an ongoing project depicting the neighborhood's amusement park rides, sideshows, game stalls, food purveyors, and other activities and businesses in the area. In 2007, sponsored by the Coney Island History Project as part of the "American Dream-Land" series, Marano created an installation called "Giant Lolly", honoring Phillips Candy shop, which had operated at the arcade entrance of the Stillwell Avenue subway station from 1930 until its closure in 2000, when renovation began at the subway station. The installation, a 78-inch tall wood and cut paper construction of a giant lollypop, was on view for a year, 2007-2008, in the area of the original Phillip's Candy shop at the arcade entrance to the renovated station. In 2008, Marano collaborated again with Richard Eagan to construct "25 Shoot," a 52-inch tall wood, paint and dimensional serigraph structure of a shooting gallery stall. "25 Shoot" was exhibited in 2011 at the "Topsy Turvy: Artists and the Amusement Utopia" exhibition at the 60

 Wall Street Gallery in New York. Later American Dream-Land papier collé images include "Miracles Only" from 2010, depicting cloud angels over Coney Island signage, rides and skyline, "I Wonder As I Wander," from 2011, depicting directional signage to the Wonder Wheel in the night sky,  and "Ma Est Ide" from 2012, depicting the entrance and partial signage for the "Spookarama World’s Longest Spook Ride." Signage
In addition to imagery of Coney Island's rides and businesses, Marano also created papier collé works based on the area's signage, particularly the style and visual impact of Coney Island's signage.Though American Dream-Land's imagery included signage such as entry signs, names of rides, game-stall and food-stall signs, these signs were included as part of the overall landscape. In 2014, <mask> created a specific signage series in papier collé and painted canvas. Many of the signs were generic, such as "Ride,"  which was framed in salvaged boards from the Coney Island Boardwalk, and "Thrills," among others. Other projects
<mask>'s Coney Island interests included the variety of tastes and colors offered by the area's candy purveyors. Her series "Sugar Rush" depicts the numerous sweets associated with Coney Island: ice cream cones, all-day suckers, sodas, candy bars, candy apples, gum drops, etc. Her "Urbanology" series expands her Coney Island and signage imagery to include out-of-the-way views of urban streets and the small businesses there. Images include the "Flat Fix" series, papier collé depictions of various tire shops.In 2011, <mask>, in collaboration with The Studio animation studio, and composer Carol

 Lipnik, produced "Take Me There," a short animation created in papier collé imagery. The narrative, inspired by the Franklin Avenue shuttle, an elevated Brooklyn line of the New York City subway system, derives from memories of Marano's childhood riding the subway to Coney Island, and envisioning the elevated train ride turning into a roller coaster. Marano's imagery was originally intended as 29 glass panels for an unrealized 1999 commission from the Metropolitan Transit Authority. From 1981 to 1984, Marano was lead artist for broadcast graphics for the NBC TV network's "Ask NBC News," a national news program for children. In 2004, her artwork was seen in the 2004 film, "The Terminal," directed by Steven Spielberg. In 1994, Marano wrote and illustrated the children's book, "Word Sandwiches." Exhibitions, public commissions and collections
Marano's work has been exhibited in several museums and galleries in New York, including the Tabla Rasa Gallery, The Prince Street Gallery, Smart Clothes Gallery, ACA Galleries, A. M. Richards Fine Art, and others.In 2004, <mask> produced the winning entry in the inaugural "Spirit of Brooklyn" competition, creating a poster depicting various Brooklyn landmarks, including the Brooklyn Bridge and Coney Island's Parachute Jump. The poster was published on conjunction with the opening of the Brooklyn Tourism Center. <mask>'s work is represented in various private and public collections, including the Brooklyn Museum.

 August 1965 called the Combined Action Program (CAP). This program consisted of squads of Marine and Navy medical corpsmen volunteers for combined action platoons (CAP), that were part of combined action companies (CAC), combined with South Vietnamese Popular Force platoons, which were sent into South Vietnamese countryside villages and hamlets to deny the Viet Cong access to the people living there. As Life noted, "His CAC units all had the same orders: help protect the villages, get to know the people, find the local Communist infrastructure and put it out of business." General <mask> stressed the importance of using combine action companies to win the confidence of average, ordinary Vietnamese citizens.The magazine observed, "If these people could be located and won over, <mask> argued, the Communists would be hit where it hurts." Because of the Combined Action Program, the number of "secure" villages under General <mask>'s protection rose between 1965 and 1967 from 87 to 197, while the number of Vietnamese living in "secure" areas in general rose from 413,000 to 1.1 million.

Retirement

General <mask> retired from active duty on February 1, 1971, and subsequently served as director of the United States Marines Youth Foundation. He later coordinated a U.S. Senate investigation on international drug trafficking. In the mid-1970s General <mask> served as the senior military member of President Gerald Ford's clemency board, and he later advised the Department of Defense on weapons development and combat training. General <mask> described the contradictions of the Vietnam War in an article for The New York Times in 1971. "On the one hand it was an extremely sophisticated war, with complex weapons unlike even World War II or Korea," he wrote."On the other hand it was a return to medieval war, pitting man against man on a battleground where only the courageous could win." General <mask> wrote three books after retiring from the Marine Corps: Strange War, Strange Strategy, about the war in Vietnam; America Faces Defeat, about the dangers confronting the nation; and The Eleventh Hour, about the urgency of

First Navy Cross citation
Citation:

The President of the United States of America takes pleasure in presenting the Navy Cross to Lieutenant Colonel <mask> <mask> (MCSN: 0-5436), United States Marine Corps, for extraordinary heroism while attached to the Third Battalion, Fifth Marines (Reinforced), FIRST Marine Division, in action against enemy Japanese forces in the Borgen Bay Area, Cape Gloucester, New Britain, on 10 January 1944. When all six members of a 37-mm. gun crew were killed or wounded while moving the weapon up the steep slope of a ridge to provide support for advanced assault units pinned down by heavy enemy fire, Lieutenant Colonel <mask> unhesitatingly rushed forward alone and, completely disregarding his own personal safety, began to push the gun up the hill. Inspired by his initiative and valor, several other men came to his assistance and laboriously worked their way up the slope in the face of terrific hostile fire until the gun was in position to enfilade the enemy lines.Courageously leading his men against five counterattacks made by the Japanese during the night in an effort to regain control of one end of the ridge, Lieutenant Colonel <mask> enabled his forces to repulse the attacks with great losses to the enemy and, resuming the battle the next morning, skillfully directed the battalion in the capture of the entire ridge. By his brilliant leadership and expert tactical knowledge, Lieutenant Colonel <mask> contributed

The President of the United States of America takes pleasure in presenting a Gold Star in lieu of a Second Award of the Navy Cross to Lieutenant Colonel <mask> <mask> (MCSN: 0-5436), United States Marine Corps, for extraordinary heroism as Executive Officer of the Fifth Marines, FIRST Marine Division, during operations against enemy Japanese forces on Peleliu, Palau Islands, from 15 to 30 September 1944. When the Commanding Officer of the Third Battalion was wounded and the Executive Officer killed during an engagement with the enemy in thick jungle on the evening of 15 September, Lieutenant Colonel <mask> assumed command of the Battalion and, by his aggressive and tireless leadership in the face of hostile small-arms, mortar and artillery fire, reorganized the Battalion and enabled it to repulse a heavy Japanese counterattack during the night and push forward to its objective the following morning. On the morning of 20 September, as Regimental Executive Officer, he made his way to the northern tip of the island to direct the installation of a gun and, although under heavy sniper and machine-gun fire, remained at the gun and supervised the firing on a cave until this strong point was neutralized. His courage and inspiring leadership throughout were in keeping with the highest traditions of the United States Naval Service. Silver Star citation

In the same action, observing that several men of his assault force were seriously wounded by hostile fire, Captain Walk, although he, himself, was exposed to intense machine gun and sniper fire, rushed forward and personally dragged two of his men to cover, thereby saving their lives. His inspiring heroism was in keeping with the highest traditions of the United States Naval Service. See also

He is also a noted New Zealand historian, and has published a number of books on New Zealand politics, including biographies of Prime Ministers Peter Fraser, Gordon Coates and Joseph Ward. Life before politics
<mask> was born on 28 August 1938 in Auckland, the son of <mask> (née Brown) and <mask>, and educated at Owairaka School, Dilworth School, Mt Albert Grammar, and the University of Auckland. He completed BA and MA degrees in history at the University of Auckland before winning a fellowship to Duke University in the United States in 1961. He completed a PhD in American history there, completing a dissertation entitled The Socialist Party of America, 1912–1919: Years of Decline. In 1964, <mask> returned to New Zealand and became a senior lecturer in history at the University of Auckland. During this time he was a member of the Princes Street Labour branch.Political career

<mask> stood unsuccessfully for the Labour Party in the  for  and in the  for . In 1971 <mask> was elected to the Auckland City Council. In the following year, he was elected as a Labour MP for Waitemata in the 1972 election, and the Labour Party became the government for the first time since 1960. Following the death of Prime Minister Norman Kirk in 1974 the party (and <mask>) were defeated in the following (1975) election.

Following his defeat, <mask> was asked about the Labour candidacy for the Nelson by-election, which took place only months afterwards, but he ruled it out saying he was not interested in Nelson and "nor would Nelson be interested in me."<mask> was elected to the Te Atatu electorate in the 1978 election, holding the seat until 1990. Soon after returning to Parliament, he was appointed Shadow Minister of Internal Affairs, Local Government and Sport & Recreation. In a reshuffle in March 1981 he was instead appointed Shadow Minister for Health. <mask> was vocally critical of party president Jim Anderton (particularly after Anderton was ejected from the head office of Air New Zealand during an industrial dispute) and declared he would challenge him for the presidency of the party. An open conflict drew the ire of others in the party and eventually <mask> withdrew his candidacy. He was still subsequently dumped from the shadow cabinet in February 1982. In 1984, an electoral landslide in favour of Labour resulted in New Zealand's fourth Labour government (in office: 1984–1990).David Lange appointed <mask> Minister of Health and Minister of Local Government. As Minister of Local Government he imposed electoral reforms on councils to use a ward system for local electoral districts, replacing the more commonplace at large system. The government enacted a major programme of economic and social reform, the economic arm of which became known as Rogernomics. Major social reforms included the decriminalisation of homosexuality in the Homosexual Law Reform Act 1986. <mask> wholeheartedly supported the social reforms. After winning a second term, <mask> retained only the Local Government portfolio but was appointed Minister of

 Internal Affairs, Civil Defence and Arts and Culture in 1987. <mask> also served as chairman of the New Zealand Lottery Grants Board and of the 1990 Commission, tasked with the commemoration of the 150th anniversary of the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi.In his capacity as Minister of Internal Affairs he also helped to reorganise Waitangi Day celebrations and to encourage them around New Zealand. When the government and party schismed over issues of economic reform, <mask> took the side of finance minister Roger Douglas, the main architect of the reforms. In 1990, Labour was defeated in another landslide election. <mask> did not contest the 1990 election, and retired from active politics. He continued occasionally to be involved at an advisory level, for example unofficially advising Don Brash during Brash's term (2003–2006) as National Party leader. <mask>'s switch of sides reflects the present-day Labour Party's semi-repudiation of Rogernomics. Career after politics
<mask> resumed his academic career, publishing several books on New Zealand political history, and contributing to the Dictionary of New Zealand Biography and the British Dictionary of National Biography.He worked for two years with New Zealand's Expo team in the run up to the Seville Expo '92. He was a Professor of History at the University of Western Ontario on and off from 1992 to 1996, taught at the Auckland University Medical School from 1997 to 2000, and was a Fulbright Professor of New Zealand Studies at Georgetown University, Washington DC. From 1994 to 2004 <mask> was a member of the Waitangi Tribunal, which investigates breaches of the Treaty of Waitangi.

In his article The Essentials of Successful Political Leadership in Twentieth Century New Zealand Politics, <mask> outlined the factors he thought were required for a Prime Minister to be successful. These factors include robust health, high energy levels, a good temperament, intelligence, a willingness to take the right, as opposed to the politically expedient, decision, a modicum of luck, a supportive spouse and charisma.Personal life
In 1964, <mask> married Judith Petrie, who went on to become a historian at the University of Auckland and a member of the Auckland Regional Council. She had also been a member of the Auckland Hospital Board. The couple had two children. <mask> is a third cousin of late Prime Minister David Lange. <mask> had suggested that Lange should stand on the Labour ticket for the Auckland City Council in 1974. The Council was dominated by conservative interests and the only Labour candidates elected were Jim Anderton and Catherine Tizard; Lange was "halfway down the field .... which was better than I expected". Lange's father, who was a doctor, had delivered Bassett.Lange wrote (presumably jokingly referring to <mask>'s appointment to Cabinet and their later disagreements): "My father had delivered him, and it became plain in later days that he must have dropped him ...."

<mask> was an Italian academic, known for reviving Arab-Islamic studies in the University of Palermo and Sicily, neglected since the death of Michele Amari. Life

<mask> was born in Egypt, where his family (of Sicilian origin, from Messina) had moved for his father's work. Here he studied in Italian schools, perfecting his classical Arabic, written and spoken, as well as the Egyptian language. He graduated in 1937 from the University of Rome, where Prof. Michelangelo Guidi, acted as advisor on a thesis on the Umayyad poet, Abū Miḥǧan Nuṣayb b. Rabāḥ (), on which he gave a report to the XX International Congress of Orientalists (Brussels, 5–10 September 1938). Rizzitano participated in WWII. When he almost immediately fell prisoner in 1940, to the Egyptian Sidi Barrani, he managed to escape and reach Cairo clandestinely before regaining Italy. <mask> was Libera docenza and assistant to the chair of Arabic language and literature at the University of Rome, where he had conducted his studies, however, he returned to Egypt as director of Italian at the University of Cairo and at the University of 'Ayn Shams, of the same Egyptian capital.In Cairo he directed the Institute of Italian Culture with untiring enthusiasm. In 1959 the chair in Palermo of Arabic language and literature was finally filled after decades of vacancy. <mask> was the undisputed winner. At the same time, his statement on the "Return of the teaching of the Arabic language and literature to the University of Palermo" outlined a budget and an operational project aimed at encouraging participation

In 1949 he participated in the first translation into Italian, for Einaudi, of the complete Arabic version of One Thousand and One Nights, – together with his fraternal friend Francesco Gabrieli, Antonio Cesaro, Virginia Vacca and Costantino Pansera and in that same 1944, he translated the novel Zaynab by Mohammed Hussein Heikal. In 1965 he published for the Institute for the Orient the masterpiece of Ṭāhā Ḥuseyn,  al-Ayyām  (‘The Days’) and between 1975 and 1977 he participated in the first world edition of the manuscript of the geographical work of al-Idrisi sponsored by the Università degli Studi di Napoli "L'Orientale" of Naples and by the Istituto italiano per il Medio ed Estremo Oriente of Rome and updated the  Biblioteca arabo-sicula by Michele Amari, in view of the National Edition of the works of the great Sicilian scholar.<mask>'s attention to the issue of dialogue between religions and cultures led him, at the express invitation of the Arab Republic of Libya, to participate, as an Italian observer, in the Islamic-Christian colloquium held in Tripoli from 1 to 5 February 1975. He organized a famous international conference, held in Rome, Venice and Palermo, on the "Arab presence in European culture". In 1979 he became President of the Istituto per l'Oriente Carlo Alfonso Nallino, the oldest Italian non-university research center for modern and contemporary Arabists.

The bibliography of <mask> <mask>'s writings records over 120 publications among those that have particularly distinguished his work as an Arabist and Islamist. and confirms the fact that the continuous search for common historical, linguistic and literary roots had as its engine the demonstration of "a possibility of coexistence of men of different race and religion".He participated in numerous national and international conferences, where he always managed to fascinate the Arabic-speaking audience with his perfect pronunciation of the Arabic language and published numerous scientific contributions that still make him the most fruitful Sicilian scholar of Arabism after Amari, of whom he was the most worthy disciple.

College career

Maualuga attended the University of Southern California, and played for coach Pete Carroll's USC Trojans football team from 2005 to 2008. He was known for his emotional intensity both on the


texts: field and off. Carroll's Trojans had previously developed strong linebackers such as Lofa Tatupu and Keith Rivers, as well as Maualuga's fellow senior teammates Brian Cushing, Kaluka Maiava and Clay Matthews III, which were touted as one of the most talented linebacker corps in college football.As a freshman in 2005, Maualuga earned Freshman All-American first-team honors from the Football Writers Association of America and Scout.com; also he won USC's John McKay Award (most competitive spirit). Off the field his career started  with occasional spirited and reckless partying that led to an October 2005 incident where he got into a fight at a Halloween party and was arrested for misdemeanor battery. He agreed in an arraignment diversion program that included counseling, Alcoholics Anonymous meetings and community service resulting in the charges being dismissed. Maualuga later noted that: "You learn that you're only given a certain number of chances. If you keep going back to the same things you were doing, it shows that you don't learn from anything." In 2006, Maualuga returned in full form and was nominated for the Butkus Award and second team All-Pac-10. He made his first start in place of injured senior Oscar Lua against Nebraska.Maualuga was considered a top choice for the 2008 NFL Draft, but he decided to stay for his senior year in college. At the end of the 2007 regular season, Maualuga was selected to the All-Pacific-10 Conference first team for the second year in a row by league coaches. He was the defensive player-of-the-game in the 2008 Rose Bowl. Maualuga wears jersey number 58, which was previously worn by former Trojan linebacker and NFL Pro Bowl player Lofa Tatupu, who, like Maualuga, is also of Samoan descent. Mindful of his heritage, Maualuga displays many bold, warrior-like Polynesian tattoos on his arms and legs. Some NFL scouts have compared Maualuga to former Trojan and NFL linebacker Junior Seau and former Trojan and retired Pittsburgh Steelers safety Troy Polamalu, both

In addition to being named the 2008 winner of the Chuck Bednarik Award, Maualuga was recognized as a unanimous first-team All-American, receiving first-team honors from the Associated Press, American Football Coaches Association, Football Writers Association of America, Sporting News, Walter Camp Football Foundation, CBS Sportsline.com, College Football News, ESPN and Rivals.com.Maualuga was also chosen to participate in the 2009 Senior Bowl with some of his other USC teammates. Professional career

2009 NFL Draft
<mask> was one of twelve graduating 2008 senior USC players, including the four senior linebackers (Maualuga, Cushing, Maiava, and Matthews), invited to the 2009 NFL Scouting Combine. In the lead up to the 2009 NFL Draft, Maualuga was ranked as one of the top middle linebackers entering the draft, alongside Ohio State's James Laurinaitis. USC linebackers <mask>, Cushing, and Matthews were all featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated'''s 2009 NFL Draft Preview magazine, as all three were regarded as potential first round selections. Cincinnati Bengals
Despite being projected as a first round pick, Maualuga was picked in the second round by the Cincinnati Bengals. He was projected by some, and expecting, to go 16th overall to the San Diego Chargers, who instead opted to select hybrid linebacker/defensive end Larry English out of Northern Illinois. After being selected, Maualuga cried as he gave thanks to his late father and said he was thankful for his opportunity as "Nothing like this was ever expected for our family."His selection came one year after the Bengals used a first-round pick to select Maualuga's college teammate, linebacker Keith Rivers. On December 30, 2009, Maualuga was placed on injured reserve due to a dislocated elbow. He finished his rookie season with 64 tackles,

texts: <mask> (born February 15, 1947) is an American composer and conductor whose music is rooted in minimalism. Among the most regularly performed composers of contemporary classical music, he is particularly noted for his operas, which are often centered around recent historical events. Apart from opera, his oeuvre includes orchestral, concertante, vocal, choral, chamber, electroacoustic and piano music. Born in Worcester, Massachusetts, <mask> grew up in a musical family, being regularly exposed to classical music, jazz, musical theatre and rock music. He attended Harvard University, studying with Kirchner, Sessions and Del Tredici among others. Though his earliest work was aligned with modernist music, he began to disagree with its tenets upon reading <mask>'s Silence: Lectures and Writings. Teaching at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, <mask> developed his own minimalist aesthetic, which was first fully realized in Phrygian Gates (1977) and later in the string septet Shaker Loops.Increasingly active in the contemporary music scene of San Francisco, his large-scale orchestral orchestral works Harmonium and Harmonielehre (1985) first gained him national attention. Other popular works from this time include the fanfare Short Ride in a Fast Machine (1986) and the orchestral work El Dorado (1991). <mask>'s first opera was Nixon in China (1987), which recounts Richard Nixon's 1972 visit to China and was the first of many collaborations with theatre director Peter Sellars. Though the work's reception was initially mixed, it has become increasingly favored since its premiere, receiving performances worldwide.

 Begun soon after Nixon in China, the opera The Death of Klinghoffer (1991) was based on the Palestinian Liberation Front's 1985 hijacking and murder of Leon Klinghoffer and incited considerable controversy over its content and choice of subject matter. His next notable works include a Chamber Symphony (1992), a Violin Concerto (1993), the opera-oratorio El Niño (2000), the orchestral piece My Father Knew Charles Ives (2003) and the six-string electric violin concerto The Dharma at Big Sur. <mask> won a Pulitzer Prize for Music for On the Transmigration of Souls (2002), a piece for orchestra and chorus commemorating the victims of the September 11, 2001, attacks.Continuing with historical subjects, <mask> wrote the opera Doctor Atomic (2005), based on J. Robert Oppenheimer, the Manhattan Project, and the building of the first atomic bomb. Later operas include A Flowering Tree (2006) and Girls of the Golden West (2017). In many ways <mask>'s music is developed from the minimalist tradition of Steve Reich and Philip Glass; however, he tends to more readily engage in the immense orchestral textures and climaxes of late Romanticism in the vein of Wagner and Mahler. His style is to a considerable extent a reaction against the modernist serialism promoted by the Second Viennese and Darmstadt School. In addition to the Pulitzer, <mask> has received the Erasmus Prize, a Grawemeyer Award, five Grammy Awards, the Harvard Arts Medal, France's Ordre des Arts et des Lettres, and six honorary doctorates.

texts: 15, 1947. As an adolescent, he lived in Woodstock, Vermont for five years before moving to East Concord, New Hampshire, and his family spent summers on the shores of Lake Winnipesaukee, where his grandfather ran a dance hall.<mask>' family didn't own a television, and didn't have a record player until he was ten. However, both his parents were musicians; his mother was a singer with big bands, and his father was a clarinetist. He grew up with jazz, Americana, and Broadway musicals, once meeting Duke Ellington at his grandfather's dance hall. <mask> also played baseball as a boy. In the third grade, <mask> took up the clarinet, initially taking lessons from his father, <mask>, and later with Boston Symphony Orchestra bass clarinetist Felix Viscuglia. He also played in various local orchestras, concert bands, and marching bands while a student. <mask> began composing at the age of ten and first heard his music performed as a teenager.He graduated from Concord High School in 1965. <mask> next enrolled in Harvard University, where he earned a Bachelor of Arts in 1969 and a Master of Arts in 1971, studying composition under Leon Kirchner, Roger Sessions, Earl Kim, Harold Shapero and David Del Tredici. As an undergraduate, he conducted Harvard's student ensemble, the Bach Society Orchestra, for a year and a half. <mask> also became engrossed by the strict modernism of the 20th century (such as that of Boulez) while at Harvard, and believed that music had to continue progressing, to the extent that he once wrote a letter to Leonard Bernstein criticizing the supposed stylistic reactionism of Chichester Psalms.

 night, however, <mask> enjoyed listening to The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, and Bob Dylan, and has relayed he once stood in line at eight in the morning to purchase a copy of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. <mask> was the first student at Harvard to be allowed to write a musical composition for his senior thesis.For his thesis, he wrote The Electric Wake for "electric" (i.e. amplified) soprano accompanied by an ensemble of "electric" strings, keyboards, harp, and percussion. However, a performance could not be put together at the time, and <mask> has never heard the piece performed. After graduating, <mask> received a copy of <mask>'s book Silence: Lectures and Writings from his mother. Largely shaken of his loyalty to modernism, he was inspired to move to San Francisco, where he taught at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music from 1972 until 1982, teaching classes and directing the school's New Music Ensemble. In the early 1970s, <mask> wrote several pieces of electronic music for a homemade modular synthesizer he called the "Studebaker". He also wrote American Standard, composed of three movements, a march, a hymn, and a jazz ballad, which was recorded and released on Obscure Records in 1975.1977 to Nixon in China

In 1977, <mask> wrote the half-hour-long solo piano piece Phrygian Gates, which he later called "my first mature composition, my official 'opus one'", as well as its much shorter companion piece, China Gates. The next year, he finished Shaker Loops, a string septet based on an earlier, unsuccessful string quartet called Wavemaker. In 1979, he finished his first orchestral work, Common Tones in

texts: Simple Time, which was premiered by the San Francisco Conservatory of Music Orchestra under <mask>' baton. In 1979, <mask> became the New Music Adviser for the San Francisco Symphony and created the symphony's New and Unusual Music concerts. A commission from the symphony resulted in <mask>' large, three-movement choral symphony Harmonium (1980–81) setting texts by <mask> and Emily Dickinson. He followed this up with the three-movement, orchestral piece (without strings), Grand Pianola Music (1982). That summer, he wrote the score for Matter of Heart, a documentary about psychoanalyst Carl Jung, a score he later derided as being "of stunning mediocrity".In the winter of 1982–83, <mask> worked on the purely-electronic score for Available Light, a dance choreographed by Lucinda Childs with sets by architect Frank Gehry. Without dance, the electronic piece alone is called Light Over Water. After an eighteen-month period of writer's block, <mask> wrote his three-movement, orchestral piece Harmonielehre (1984–85), which he described as "a statement of belief in the power of tonality at a time when I was uncertain about its future." As with many of <mask>' pieces, it was inspired by a dream, in this case, a dream in which he was driving across the San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge and saw an oil tanker on the surface of the water abruptly turn upright and take off like a Saturn V rocket. From 1985 to 1987, <mask> composed his first opera, Nixon in China, with libretto by Alice Goodman, based on Richard Nixon's 1972 visit to China. The opera marked the first collaboration between <mask> and theatre director Peter
