Smoke out
Sara Glass, Kansas City, sophomore, exhales flavored Hookah tobacco as Brian Kueffer, Overland Park, sophomore, right, takes his turn in the circle outside Staufer Flint Hall Thursday during the "Israel on the Hill" event. Along with a Hookah, a Middle Eastern tradition, there was a belly dancer and traditional food. Students also received information on the university's decision to剑 Israel from the list of available counties in which to study

Rushdie

Rushdie cited Jlhadist influence on Kashmiris as an example of religious tension. He said that though both groups were of the same faith they practiced it differently; now the Jlhdists are intimidating the Kashmiris in practicing a more
extreme form of Islam. Rushdie said that there was no problem when religion was private but that the question of intolerance was important.
"The problem I have is with this renewed and very powerful connection between religion and politics," Rushdie said.
Ian Staples, Lawrence junior, said he agreed with Rushdie's comments on the increasingly common bond between religion and politics.
"His dialogue on modern dogma was insightful to say the least," Staples said.

Unit
The department has completed 11 checkpoints since forming the unit, Roberts said. The traffic unit also conducts saturation patrols during which it targets drivers under the influence from 3 p.m. to 3 a.m. on weekends, in addition to issuing traffic tickets, Roberts said. The traffic unit issues an average of 50 tickets per day and does not have quotas to fulfill, he said. Stanwix and Jerry Little, Lawrence city prosecutor, said the unit had increased the workload of municipal court and trials had been delayed. No employees have been added, they said.
Little said students could come to municipal court, 1006 New Hampshire St., to avoid having their citation reported to insurance companies. A prosecutor would lessen the change from a moving violation to a parking violation, he said. Kelly, a KU graduate student from Kansas who asked that her name not be used, said she received two speeding tickets totaling $198 while commuting to and from campus in September.
"I if I end up paying double to get them off my record, I'll go broke," Kelly said. "If I don't pay double, then my insurance
will go up and I'll be broke."
Mayor Dennis "Boog" Highberger said the city collected the revenue, which it uses to fund parks and recreation, street maintenance and police and fire protection.
"The purpose is not to raise revenue, but to make sure people follow traffic laws so the streets are safe." Highberger said.
The money from the federal grant has run out, Highberger said, but city commissioners were able to continue funding the traffic unit through an 8 percent increase in property value.
