OBITUARIES
Student dies in accident during the winter break
By Danny Phillips

Kansas staff writer
Whenever Mark Tolbert Jr.'s friends walked into Mrs. E's, they could always count on a loud, cheerful greeting.
The Kansas City, Mo., freshman died in a car accident on 22 in his hometown on his way to work.
Tolbert, 19, was driving his 1990 Honda when it collided with a Kansas City Fire Department truck that was responding to an accident.
I will answer any questions with the text provided.
**Question:** Where is the person depicted in the image located?
**Answer:** The person depicted in the image is located in a room.
Last semester was Tolbert's first at the University of Kansas. He was active in the Black Student Union and Black Men of Today. He went home almost every weekend to visit his family and girlfriend.
Tolbert
Tolbert's cousin, Lorraine Tolbert, Lawrence graduate student, said he had big plans for the future. He planned to major in business administration and had thought of opening a music company with
his friends, starting a convention center/hotel or possibly managing a restaurant chain, his cousin said.
J. R. Roland, Grandview, Mo., senior, met Tolbert last semester and quickly developed a friendship with him. He said he would remember Tolbert's smile and the way it seemed to lift the spirits of everyone around him.
Lorraine Tolbert said her fun-loving cousin made friends very easily and enjoyed calling out to his friends in a loud voice whenever they entered the cafeteria.
"It got on my nerves," joked Lorraine Talbert about her cousin's loud nature. She said she once intentionally ignored her cousin's calls while passing by Wescoe Hall. She walked away from him and ducked into Strong Hall, prompting him to chase after her.
Because the accident occurred during winter break and some of Tolbert's friends were not able to attend the funeral, a memorial service for anyone wishing to attend is planned for 6 p.m. tomorrow at the Big 12 Room in the Kansas Union.
Roland, who is president of the student organization Black Men of Today, said the event would be an opportunity for people to talk about Tolbert and would include a dedication, songs and a poetry reading.
"When someone close to you passes away, they deserve to be remembered on campus," he said.

Mrs.E's employee dies Saturday in car accident on way to work
By Sarah Warren writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
A morning-service supervisor at Mrs. E's died in a one-car accident on her way to work early Saturday morning.
PETER G. MORRISON
Donna Piene, 59, of McLouth, was driving westbound on Kansas Highway 16 in heavy fog when she tried to turn south onto Wellman Road, said Jeremy Simon, Kansas Highway Patrol trooper.
Piene
Piene's 1993 Chevrolet pickup slid off the road and rolled twice, landing upside down. Piene, who was not wearing a seat belt, was ejected and pinned beneath the truck. Simon said.
Sheryl Kidwell, Mrs. E's unit manager, said that when Piene didn't arrive to unlock the doors for the morning shift, employees began to worry.
"She was supposed to come to work at 5 a.m.," Kidwell said. "When she wasn't here within the hour, we started making phone calls."
Once Kidwell learned of the death, she faced the task of telling Piene's co-workers.
telling him the school's headmaster,
"We called all the staff together that was here and told them what had happened," Kidwell said. "It was pretty much a breakdown, crying sort of thing."
Pliene had been a cafeteria employee since 1995. Before becoming one of two morning-service supervisors, Pliane had also been a cook at the cafeteria and the head cook at E's Express.
Plene drove 45 minutes from McLouth to Lawrence three to four days each week for the 5 a.m. shift.
Other caterers employees enjoyed Plene's company on those early mornings.
"I always admired that she worked that shift and lived that far away," Kidwell said. "To drive that far every morning, she must have enlisted her job."
Plene had an easy-going attitude that made tasks such as preparing large batches of French toast enjoyable, said Jim Carroll, a grill cook.
"We'd do the French toast disco dance in the morning," Carroll said. "We'd just have the best time preparing breakfast, I've worked with her for three years. She's like a sister to me. She's a real treat lady; I miss her already."
Shes a real learner Kidwell contacted the University of Kansas' Human Resources Department about grief counseling for the cafeteria's 58 full-time adult employees and 48 student employees.
"We're definitely a family that has iest a family member." Kidwell said. "She was very well-liked and will be missed very much."
Funeral services will be held at 10 a.m. today at the Barnett Funerell Home in Oakelope.

Housing ordinance up for vote
City may decide proposal's fate in February
By Erin Adamson
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
The future of off-campus student housing in Lawrence still is undecided.
The Lawrence City Commission will vote at its Feb. 6 meeting on the proposed housing ordinance that would lower the number of unrelated people allowed to live in residences zoned for single families from four to two
Although the Planning Commission recommended that the commission not approve the proposal, the City Commission continues to consider it. The commission voted to draft the ordinance at its Dec. 12 meeting. A vote to approve the draft is expected Feb. 6, and by law, the commission would need to vote once more for final approval after a public hearing.
Commissioner Erv Hodges said that if the ordinance is approved, the commission would like to phase it in
during a three-year period and register landlords with non-complying residences.
Hodges said the benefits of the proposal to the community would be twofold. It would keep families in areas zoned for single-families and would increase the amount of affordable housing available to home buyers in Lawrence. And the commercial value of houses in these neighborhoods would fall when landlords moved out, putting them in the price range of families, Hodges said.
However, Lawrence rental-property manager David Gage of Gage Management said he feared limiting to two the number of students who can live together would raise the rent in housing across the city and make housing unaffordable for students
"The only people this really helps are the guys that run apartment complexes." Gage said.
Gage also said landlord registration would lead to higher rent because landlords would pass new costs on to renters. He estimated that in the 23 houses he manages that the ordinance would affect, two-thirds of the tenants are students who would have to find other housing.
Affected neighborhoods would
include single-family residences south of 19th Street, east of Connecticut Street, north of Sixth Street and west of campus, Gage said. The Mount Oread Neighborhood, however, is zoned to allow student housing and would not be affected by the proposal. Densely populated Ohio and Tennessee streets are zoned as residential dormitory neighborhoods and allow renting even by the room.
Some students living in the affected neighborhoods could either live with fewer students or move into apartment complexes in other areas of town, Gage said.
town, Sage Sarah Scully, Warrensburg, Mo. senior, used to live in a house that would be affected by the ordinance. She said the commission should care about what would happen to students if the ordinance passes.
"I think that landlords should do their jobs," Scully said. "Don't kick out college students; just take care of the existing housing."
Holly Krebs, chairwoman of the Student Rights Committee and an opponent of the proposed ordinance. said the Student Senate would organize students to attend upcoming meetings.
Edited by Megan Phelps
Housing ordinance timeline
Here's how the proposed housing ordinance has unfolded:
Sept. 5. Two versions of the proposed housing ordinance that would reduce from four to two the number of unrelated people who can live together in single-family neighborhoods are sent to the Lawrence Planning Commission for review. One proposal is drafted by the city and the other by the Lawrence Association of Neighborhoods. The planning commission is set to hear the proposal Oct. 25.
Nov. 1 — The planning commission votes against both versions of the housing proposal after the hearing is moved back until today because of interest from students, landbords, neighborhood residents and other renters. About 60 students, including nine representatives of Student Senate, speak. Ben Walker, student body president, presents a petition signed by 1,769 students opposing the ordinance and a Senate resolution that opposes the proposed change.
Dec. 12 — Lawrence city commissioners vote to draft an ordinance forbidding more than two unrelated people from living together in single-family housing. A minimum of two public hearings of the ordinance must take place before it can be made law.
Feb. 6. — The first public hearing of the ordinance is set to take place today.

King remembered on holiday
Students participate in community service, ceremony yesterday
By Danny Phillips

Kansas staff write
As some University of Kansas students trickled back to campus yesterday, others spent the day volunteering and attending a sermon in memory of Martin Luther King Jr.
"I understand that this is an awkward time for students," the Lawrence sophomore said, pointing out that many were just returning to campus yesterday.
Although the day's activities were fewer than at other universities — such as Kansas State University, which has planned a week-long campus celebration — Black Student Union president Courtney Bates said she wasn't disappointed.
The Center for Community Outreach sponsored its second
While the turnout was considerably smaller than last year's 100 participants, CCO co-director Julia Gilmore said she wasn't disappointed. She attributed last year's turnout to aggressive advertising.
annual Martin Luther King Jr. service day, dispersing 10 volunteers across town to clean and paint for various community organizations.
"I think as long as there are people out there doing work who want to be doing work, then that's successful," the Clay Center senior said.
The volunteers were split up and sent to the Community Drop-in Center, the First Step House, and

Health Care Access, local community outreach centers.
"KU's been a great source for us."
said Teresa Thompson, Drop-in Center board chairwoman.
While some students repainted a room inside the center, which provides basic needs for the homeless, others went outside to rake leaves.
Three more volunteers helped create a mural on an inside wall of the First Step House. The volunteers drew the outline of the mural — a scenic painting complete with trees, birds and flowers — and let the house residents paint it in.
"I usually look around for different community service projects," said Mike Leighnor, Overland Park freshman.
The final volunteer went to Health Care Access to do some odd jobs.
Earlier yesterday afternoon.
He said he learned about the CCO projects yesterday while walking through the Kansas Union lobby and signed up for the mural project on the spot.
After the service projects were completed, CCO had a dinner and panel discussion at Ecumenical Christian Ministries.

More information For more information about Martin Luther King Day.
Pastor Cedric Britt addressed an audience of nearly 350 people during a commemorative service at the Lied Center. The sermon was the final event of the Ecumenical Fellowship's 16th annual Martin Luther King Jr. holiday celebration.
Britt used a Bible story from the book of Joshua to frame his speech about the need for greater equality.
In the story, a memorial of stones was established by the bank of the Jordan River as a reminder of how God parted the river's waters and allowed Joshua and his descendants to cross over into the Promised Land.
"There is a Jordan River standing between us and our promised land," Britt said, describing how there is still work to be done in the quest for equality.

Former football player enters plea in court
A former University of Kansas football player pleaded no contest Thursday to charges of conspiracy to commit robbery and attempted robbery.
Dion Johnson, who was a defensive end in his senior season in 1999, was originally charged with kidnapping and aggravated robbery in connection with a June 27 incident in the 1700 block of Kentuckville Street.
The victim, a 21-yearold University student, testified in September that two males robbed him at gunpoint at his residence.
One of the males, a 1.7 year-old who was sentenced to two years in juvenile detention for the robbery, testified in September that Johnson gave him and the other male guns, told them where they could get money and marijuana and drove them to the student's house.
The other male was never identified. Johnson's sentencing is scheduled for Feb. 23.

University, institute agree to share medical data
The Stowers Institute for Medical Research in Kansas City, Mo., and the University of Kansas have announced plans to collaborate in medical research.
Stowers, the University and the KU Medical Center will exchange data and research programs under the agreement. As a result, the three institutions will jointly apply for contracts, federal grants and awards for medical research.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said the collaboration will improve medical research.
"Health care and medical research will be greatly enhanced," Hemeway said. "It is a positive thing for the institute and KU to form a close-working relationship."

Segwick County study shows low recycling
WICHTA — Low recycling participation in Sedgwick County has officials threatening to charge people for every bag of garbage they pitch.
Figures from a recently released study show only 15 percent of Wichita-area residents recycle, far below the 37 percent of households nationwide thought to be recycling. And it's nowhere near the 50 percent sought by the Sedgwick County Commission, which commissioned
the study.
Unless half the residents begin recycling within the next two years, the Sedgwick County commission has voted to charge people for every bag of garbage they throw away and charge everyone to recycle whether they want to or not.

Ashcroft to encounter difficult Senate hearings
WASHINGTON — John Ashcroft will soon be mingling with his friends back in the Senate, some of whom are ready to pounce.
But it isn't personal, Democrats said Sunday, while making clear they will not give him a pass to become the next attorney general just because they think he's a fine individual.
"Advise and consent doesn't mean advice and rubber stamp," said Vermont Sen. Patrick Leahy, the Judiciary Committee's senior Democrat and temporary chairman.
Democrats opposed to Ashcroft's nomination say his conservative opinions are ill-suited to the job of being the nation's top law enforcer.

"We're talking about governors and mayors who deal with real issues, unlike in Washington and Congress where they talk but don't get anything done," said Ron Faucheux, editor of Campaigns & Elections. "They're often times good testing grounds for strategic moves for both parties."
Clinton calls for common humanity as he leaves
WASHINGTON—Marking the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday, President Clinton said yesterday that his wish as he leaves the White House is for an America where the quest for common humanity outweighs racial, ethnic and cultural differences among citizens.
"I if I could leave America with one wish as I depart office, it would be that we become more the 'One America' that we know we ought to be," Clinton told a crowd of about 900 at the University of the District of Columbia.
Clinton also referred to a message he sent to Congress over the weekend that calls for improvements to the criminal justice system, restoring voting rights for people who complete their prison sentences, and a national election commission, led by former Presidents Ford and Carter, that would review balloting problems that surfaced in the past presidential election.

Iraqi Kurds realize dream of independence
IRBIL, Iraq — Kurdish militiamen walk patrols armed with assault rifles and cruise the streets in pick-up trucks mounting heavy machine guns. Local officials, and not Baghdad, make the decisions on what gets done. Foods and goods in short supply elsewhere in Iraq are abundant.
Ten years after the Persian Gulf War, Iraqi Kurds have realized their dream of governing themselves in a largely independent area of northern Iraq.
But the undeclared state is divided, fragile and dependent on the United Nations for food and the U.S. Air Force for protection.
Kurds know their fighting men are no match for Iraqi helicopters and tanks just 20 miles from irbil, whose 750,000 people make it the area's biggest city.

Army drops case against gay reservist, politician
The Associated Press
PHOENIX — The Army said yesterday it has dropped efforts to dismiss an Arizona lawmaker from a reserve unit because he said during a legislative debate that he was gay.
An Army representative said that the case was dismissed after Rep. Steve May, a reserve lieutenant, agreed not to re-enlist once his current term expires Friday. May 11.
"Given my record of service, I should be allowed to complete my term, regardless of my sexual orientation." he said.
A military panel recommended in September that May be honorably discharged for violating the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy.
Under that rule, gays are allowed to serve in the Armed Forces as long as they don't declare their sexual orientation. In turn, the military cannot asking service members if they are homosexual.
May's appeal of the panel's decision was rejected in November. But his lawyer, Christopher Wolf, said the military decided on Saturday to drop the case.
Wolf said he discussed the issue last month with White House chief of staff John Podesta and on Friday with top military officials.
"I think it's vindication that we were right from

the beginning." May said of the Army's decision.
But LL. Col. Bill Wheelehan, an Army representative, said the case was dropped because May agreed not to re-enlist.
"Time was going to run out in the next four months to get this man out," Wheelehan said. "You can't (dismiss) an officer that rapidly when the officer is using everything at his disposal" to appeal. The legislator said he never intended to serve another term.
ON THE RECORD
May, a Republican who was re-elected in November, acknowledged his homosexuality during legislative debate in February 1999, while arguing for extending health benefits to same-sex partners. He was an honorably discharged civilian reservist at the time but was called back to the Army a few weeks later, during the Kosovo crisis.

Housing increase approved
By Cassio Furtado
writer @kanans.com
Kanans staff writer
Some students are bracing to pay higher rent in the residence halls next fall after the Kansas Board of Regents approved higher rates for campus housing.
The increase, which the board approved last month, will go into effect Sun., July 1, and will also increase prices at Jayhawker Towers and Sunflower Apartments.
Rates for most University of Kansas residence halls will have a $234 increase per occupant.
A single room will increase from $4,954 to $5,188 and a double room will cost $4,348, compared to this year's $4,114. This represents a 5.7 percent increase for double rooms and 4.7 percent increase for single rooms.
"I don't like the price increase, but there's no choice," said Susan Meadows, Overland Park freshman, who lives in McCollum Hall. Rates for scholarship halls will follow the trend.
K. K. Amini and Margaret Amini Scholarship Halls will go up 8.6 percent, from $2.794 to $3.034.
Battenfeld, Douthart, Grace Pearson, Pearson, Sellards and Stephen scholarship halls will have a 6.6 percent increase, up from
$2,794 to $2,978. Miller and Watkins Scholarship Halls will only have a $38 increase in price because their rates are subsidized by a trust established by Elizabeth Miller Watkins, who donated the two halls to the Board of Regents in 1926 and 1937.
"At the same time I know it is necessary, I'm worried about the burden on the students," the San Angelo, Texas, junior said. "For most students, that is a lot."
A quadruple occupancy apartment at the Jayhawk Towers will cost $2,020, increasing from $1,902, a 6.2 percent increase. A double occupancy room at the towers will cost $3,668, increasing from $3,526.
Jessica Bankston, Student Legislative Awareness Board legislative director, said that she had mixed feelings about the housing rates increase.
Sunflower Apartments' rates will increase from $477 to $490, a 2.7 percent increase.
In other action, the Regents approved an increase to the Regents Center construction fee from $10 to $15 per credit hour, a $2 per-credit-hour increase in off-campus fees, and a $3 increase in on-campus fees.

Some students avoid buying costly books
By Lauren Brandenbush
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Even though classes started today, many textbooks remained on bookstore shelves as students tried to save money by avoiding purchasing their books.
Nick Shea, Belleville, Ill., senior,
said he would wait until at least tomorrow to make a trip to the bookstore so he would know exactly what he would need.
But he will buy his books,he said. Karen Pankratz, Newton senior, may not.
Pankatz said she would probably buy the books for her major but not for her general education courses, and she will be looking for alternative ways to get her books.
"Half of the time, you don't really need to read the information, or it's available from somewhere else for less." she said.
As a freshman, Pankrate bought all her books — even the ones that weren't required. By the beginning of her sophomore year, she realized she could save money by borrowing from friends or using the library.
Sometimes Pankratz and her friends coordinate who will buy the books for a class.
"It hasn't hurt my studying," said Pankratz, who said she earns A's and
"If you have something coming up and don't get to the library in time or can't get the book from anyone else, you could be in trouble," Pankratz said.
But she said planning ahead was important with this system.
B's.
Bill Getz, assistant store manager for the Kansas Union bookstore, said the bookstore operated on the assumption that all students would buy books somewhere. He said yesterday was a slower-than-usual sales day for textbooks, but he expected sales would be strong through the end of the first week of class.
The bookstore will likely start returning books to the publisher by spring break, Getz said. Books are ordered based on anticipated enrollment and past sales, he said.
Getz said about half as many students pre-ordered books for this semester compared to the fall, when about 3,600 students opted for pre-orders. The bookstore also fills orders placed on its Web site, www.jayhawks.com. The orders can be mailed, unlike a typical pre-order.
Getz warned that students could run into trouble if they waited too long to buy books. He said the bookstore would help students get books not in stock, but it could take up to three months to obtain sold-out books.

Students make best of spending break at KU

friends.
Joseph Leung just wanted to stay put during winter break.
While his mom tried to fly him home to Hong Kong, his friends urged him to travel to New York with them. Leung, freshman, turned down both invitations, opting to stay in McCollum Hall
"I didn't want to go anywhere, so I stayed," he said. "The main reason is I wanted to study for next semester."
While most students deserted the University for winter break, a few international students stayed behind. As in Leung's case, some didn't want to make the journey home. Others couldn't afford a plane ticket. These students filled their days by watching television, studying for the spring semester and spending time with
Lueng accomplished his goal of studying for the upcoming semester. Because English is his second language, he must spend more time studying than his American classmates, he said. Armed with his pre-semester preparations, he said he was eager to start classes.
"I really missed my friends in the dorms when they went to New York," Leung said. "I didn't really miss home that much. You just get used to being away."
Leung hung out with a fellow resident of McCollum, Yoshihisa Nakashima. The two often felt like they were the only two still in the residence halls, Leung said.
Nakashima, also a freshman, fought boredom during the long break. On a "soostring budget," he couldn't afford a $1,000 plane ticket home.
"It was so boring," he said. "I didn't do anything on Christmas. I just watched TV. I really missed my younger sister. We have so much fun
together."
When junior Rachel Magario didn't want to go home to Sao Paulo, Brazil, her family came to her. Her parents and younger sister came for the holidays, which eased her homesickness.
"I was tired, and it is such a hassle to travel 10 to 12 hours for a short break," she said. "The biggest reason to go home is to see family and friends. My family came here, and I have friends everywhere."
She stayed busy during the break by working with two different international student groups. As vice-president of the International Student Association and treasurer of International Student Ambassadors, Magaro helped plan events for the spring semester.
"When you go home, you go out every night," she said. "You get so worn down, and then you have to start the next semester. It was nice just to stay here."

Kansan staff has experience under its belt
Many Kansan readers may not realize that while the newspaper's staff is working daily to put out a newspaper, we're also students with classes, other jobs and other activities.
We try to uphold the publication's standards and professionalism, but we realize we're not error-proof and that we're still learning.
The Kansan is different from many college newspapers because it is part of the School of Journalism, thus serving as a laboratory for students. Each semester, the Kansan begins with an entirely new staff. More than 150 students fill positions — including management copy editors, reporters and designers — and learn to do their jobs as best they can.
As with all careers, part of the learning process is learning from mistakes — something all newspapers make, including the Kansan.
Students have asked me if Kansan staff members get embarrassed because of the corrections
we will on page 2A: we don't like getting things wrong. But when we do, it's our job to provide readers the accurate information. College papers are not the only ones that do this — it isn't unusual to see several corrections in *The New York Times* and other respectable papers across the country.
I am the owner of this business.
Many people assume that college newspapers are more error-prone than professional newspapers. Perhaps it's this assumption.
Three semesters ago, I was a Kansan reporter. Like many other Kansan staff members, I had worked at a professional newspaper, in my case The Wichita Eagle, before accepting a position at the University's student newspaper.
tion that leads sources to distrust reporters from college newspapers at times.
Lori O'Toole
editor
editor@kansan.com
I could sometimes tell a difference between how I was treated by sources when I introduced myself as a reporter from a college newspaper rather than as one from a professional paper. Once, a source told me that he would not continue an interview because he did not have time to deal with an inexperienced journalist.
— one that he later told me was well done.
This semester, many of the reporters on staff are no different. Some have covered newsworthy events and crime for hometown newspapers both in and out of state. They have written articles for *The Kansas City Star* and the Associated Press.
I wasn't inexperienced, I assured him, telling him about some of the articles I had written in the past. He seemed a bit surprised and agreed to continue the interview, which gave me adequate information to write a front-page article
But the experience doesn't stop with our reporters. Many of the editors, photographers and online staff members have worked at local newspapers and large metropolitan newspapers. After graduation in May, many of the same people will leave Mt. Oread to work in newsrooms across the country, including The Washington Post and The New York Times.
Students are the force behind the Kansan, but that does not hinder us from acting professionally and putting our valuable experience to use. College newspapers are unique, not only because they're training grounds for young journalists, but also because they reflect the characteristics, attitude and people that make up the student body.
Let us know when an issue comes up that you think is important and would like to see in the paper. Feel free to contact us via e-mail, letters, Free for All, calling or stopping by the newsroom at 111 Stauffer-Flint Hall. The door is always open.

How about this? We only let students live off campus if they buy the house, sell us their children as slaves, and hop around on one foot all the time!

This week's question
Do you think city commissioners purposely voted on the housing ordinance the night before Stop Day,when students were preparing for finals and the Kansan had stopped publishing for the semester?
Yes. They wanted to curb student reaction to the vote.
No. The timing of the vote was merely a coincidence.

Editorial
Timing of vote on housing law muffled KU students' opinions
The Lawrence City Commission sent a harsh message to students when it voted to draft an ordinance that would limit to two the number of unrelated people who could live together in certain neighborhoods: We don't care what you have to say.
The vote took place Dec. 12, the day before Stop Day — a time that presented several problems for students. Foremost, it meant the meeting was held a mere 36 hours before final exams began. Asking students to choose between their grades and their housing is unfair. It also meant that many students were left in the dark about the decision because the Kansan stopped publishing the day of the vote.
The City Commission shouldn't have voted on the housing ordinance the day before Stop Day.
After about 60 students showed up for a Nov. 1 Planning Commission meeting at which the ordinance was reviewed, fewer than 10 showed up for the Dec. 12 City Commission meeting. That may have given the commissioners the false impression that students didn't care about the ordinance.
Holly Krebs, chair of the student rights committee and an organizer of opposition to the ordinance, said timing had a lot to with sparse attendance.
"(Commissioners) undermined the public input process," she said. "By scheduling it on Stop Day eve, they sent the message, 'We're not looking for public input, so we can just pass.'"
However, Mayor Jim Henry insists the commission was not trying to slight students by voting when it did. He also points out that the commission made sure to avoid further votes on the issue before students returned from break.
"We were responding at that point to pleas from our citizens," he said. "They said, 'Don't
But intentional or not, the commission should have realized that it was effectively excluding one side from the debate. It sent out the message that no matter what students had to say it wasn't listening.
"This is one of those very difficult issues that is prone to misunderstanding," Henry said.
But that's exactly why the commission needed to make sure that both sides could participate in the debate before it voted. Luckily, students have two more chances express their opinions before the ordinance becomes law. The first is the Tuesday, Feb. 6 commission meeting.
Students should swamp the commission chamber at that meeting to make up for their absence Dec. 12. Students have to show the City Commission they won't be silenced.

I get somewhat wistful when a new year dawns. New Year's Day promises winds of momentous change, of unfettered optimism, of turning over a new leaf.
putrid cloud of pessimism has carried over into 2001.

Chris Borniger opinion editor opinion@kansan.com
Under the intense tutelage of television psychic Miss Cleo, I've developed a keen sense of foresight. So here's Mystic Bornipants' list of predictions for 2001:
President George W. Bush will be the first American president ever launched into space. On his return, Bush will tell a group of reporters, "I've always been interested in astronomy."
A NASA representative will tell the same reporters, "Hey, we've sent a monkey into orbit. We didn't think this would be much different."
Al Gore's bland, rigid demeanor will net him a job as a surfboard.
Andrew Lloyd Webber will retire in disgrace after his musical "Elian!" flops. Robin Williams, however, will earn a Tony nomination for his portrayal of Attorney General Janet Reno.
In August, the Kansas Board of Regents once again will raise the cost of tuition, this time to "a million bajillion dollars." As a result, diversity at the University of Kansas suffers significantly, as the only people who can afford to attend classes are Overland Park residents.
Wescoe Hall will be placed on the National Register of Uglly, Abominable University Buildings.
Abominable University Buildings.
Kathie Lee Gifford will replace her former talk-show partner, Regis Philbin, after he attempts to strangle Richard Simmons during a taping of a celebrity episode of Who Wants to be a Millionaire? The show's ratings will plummet, thanks largely to Gifford's insistence on always singing "Is that your final answer?" in the key of F.
The cloning craze will take a bizarre turn when scientists success fully clone Tony Danza. President Bush then will sign an executive order barring the cloning of former stars of bad '80s ABC sitcoms.
Striking a deal with disgruntled KU students, the Lawrence City Commission will allow multiple students in single-family-neighborhood homes, so long as students agree to smoke their bongs out of the view of small children.
That's it. So kick back, relax and watch 2001's sordid story unfold. But close your window — the winds of change still stink.

Online grades make shaky debut
By Amanda Beglin writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Online grades were distributed during winter break, but not without confusion.
Students reported few problems requesting their grades online, but a plan to have grades automatically sent to student e-mail accounts proved less successful.
In December, Associate Provost Kathleen McCluskey-Fawcett announced to KU faculty by e-mail that fall grades would be sent by e-mail to
students' University accounts.
But some students, such as Grant Butler, Olathe sophomore, waited for grades that never arrived.
"The Kansan said grades were supposed to be automatically sent, but I never got it." Butler said.
Richard Morrell, University registrar, can explain.
"Students with KU accounts in the Outlook server were sent their grades," Morrell said.
Students who access their KU email accounts without using the Outlook program may not have received grades. Students with
non-University accounts such as Hotmail didn't received grades electronically either.
Morrell said he had plans for future semesters.
"What we want to do is create a grade system that you can access online from the University Web site," Morrell said.
Morrall said students would be able to access their grades from the University Registrar Web site by using a password and seeing their grades instantly on the site by passing insecure e-mail accounts.

life. The department focuses on student development and supervises various university organizations such as Services for Students with Disabilities and Career and Employment Services.
Ambler said that while Johnson had a lot of experience with student affairs, his caring approach was what most impressed the selection committee.
Johnson said that he looked forward to merging that philosophy with the University's goals.
"He has a solid philosophy about what student affairs is and creative ideas in approaching it," Ambler said.
With a group effort, we'll do our part, whether it be by helping students find a sense of belonging or by providing assistance with academic success." he said.
City to decide on leash-free park proposal
Two years ago, the commission tightened up an ordinance requiring all dogs to be leashed within city limits, including city parks and school grounds, said Lawrence city manager Mike Wildgen.
Johnson served as Missouri's dean of student life from 1995 to 1998. Before moving to Missouri, Johnson was an assistant to the vice president for student affairs at the University of Vermont.

Kansas staff write
The City Commission votes tonight on a Lawrence Parks and Recreation recommendation to create a dog park. The park would occupy 30 acres of property leased from the city north of Clinton Lake's spillway.
Dogs running across the hillsides north of Clinton Lake could soon be a common sight, if a proposal for a leash-free park is approved tonight.
Students, especially those with limited yard space, say they support a leash-free park.
"I would definitely take my dog to a dog park," said Tom Fawcett, Lawrence junior.
Danielle Gentile, Chicago junior,
said she received a $40 ticket for
letting her dog run leash-free at
Potter Lake on the University of
Kansas campus. She said she
would also utilize a leash-free park.
She said she hadn't realized that
dogs had to remain on their leashes
even in city parks.
The leash-free park, however,
wouldn't be a complete free-for-all.
Dog owners would be required to
keep their pets from fighting and
clean up after their dogs.
Edited by Megan Phelps
Both Fawcett and Gentile said they didn't worry about their dogs getting in fights if let loose with other dogs in a park.
"I don't worry about my dog misbehaving," Fawcett said. "She's pretty docile."
According to a report by The Laurence Journal World earlier this week, Lawrence Dog Owners and Green Space, a group of dog owners, was the driving force behind the proposed leash-free park.
If approved, the park will open to the public some time this spring. Wildgien said.

Kansan staff writer
Despite threats that students would be removed from their comfy suites in Lewis Hall if they did not meet a service requirement, the hall has yet to crack down on those violating a participation agreement.
Last semester, some students in the hall feared that their lack of participation in a monthly community service, diversity or leadership program had put their residency in jeopardy.
But this semester Lewis residents returned to their hall, moving bags and boxes into the building during the weekend. No residents received the boot.
Piers Shorrock, Minneapolis, Minn.,
freshman, is a member of the Lewis
Hall Participation Board. The board is
made up of a handful of Lewis residents who review the cases of residents who have not fulfilled the agreement. The group then decides if a resident should be removed from the hall. However, according to Shorrock, the first step to removal — face-to-face meetings with the residents in jeopardy — never occurred.
"We never had any one-on-one meetings with anybody," he said.
However, Sorhrock said that if any resident had not participated during fall semester, that person would be contacted in the coming weeks. That person's future at Lewis Hall could still be in jeopardy.
"We will have a meeting with that person, and there is a possibility that we could make a recommendation to housing to not let them live in Lewis next
year," Shorrock said. "And there is a slight possibility that we could make a recommendation to kick residents out before semester, but I'm not completely sure that that will happen."
Destiny Deitch, Manhattan freshman and Lewis resident, said that residents knew what they were getting into when they signed the participation agreement in August.
However, she said the lack of participation by some residents could have been prevented had Lewis Hall been more active in helping students fulfill the requirements.
"People knew what they needed to do when they signed the agreement," Deitch said. "However, I think that if the hall gave suggestions or did sign-ups that would help."

RESIDENTS CAN STAY
What's happening: Lewis Hall residents are not facing removal from their rooms for failing to meet a service requirement as hall officials had promised last semester.
What it means: Residents signed an agreement to participate in one program per month. The panel overseeing the requirement planned to meet with students who did not comply, but now claims that too many violated the agreement to follow through with the meetings.
**What's next:** Students may be pre vented from returning to Lewis next year if they don't meet the requirement this semester.

Learned expansion on hold

Plans to give Learned Hall a facelift have been put on hold while the School of Engineering completes fund-raising for the project.
Carl Locke Jr., dean of engineering, said the school and the Kansas University Endowment Association were still raising money for the $16 million project. Locke said the fund-raising was going well, but he would not release the amount raised so far.
The lack of funds is the only obstacle preventing the start of the project, said Doug Doering, project manager.
"The project's on hold right now," he said. "The University does not have the funding. We've finished the design work."
Once the money is raised, bids will be accepted from prospective construction companies. Doering said the bidding
process would take 12 weeks
The project, which will expand the east side of Learned Hall, will include classrooms, a new career services center and the dean's office.
Andrew Yoder, South Hutchinson senior, said the expansion would allow more room for separate departments.
"They need more room, primarily for the mechanical engineering department," he said.
Locke said the project would create a main entrance to Learned Hall and improve the overall appearance of the building. The dean's office and career center also will be easier to find, he said.
January Corn. Hollyrood senior, said student reaction had been positive.
"I think everybody's excited about it. I haven't heard anything bad about it," she said. "I'm glad that they're doing it." A drawing of the new addition can be found at the School of Engineering Web site at www.engr.ukans.edu.

Watkins has flu shots available for students

Kansan staff writer
It's not too late in the season to get a flu shot.
The shots are now available at Watkins Memorial Health Center.
According to a press release from the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, people still can benefit from the flu vaccine. The department has confirmed tests showing that this year's flu vaccine will protect against the virus.
Randall Rock, chief of staff at Watkins, said he encouraged students to get the shots.
"It is important for students to have flu shots, especially those individuals with asthma and lung disease," Rock said. "Those individuals who live with others who are prone to the flu should also consider getting vaccinated."
Ryan Gwaltney, Wichita senior, said he was vaccinated every year to prevent pneumonia.
my sophomore year at KU, I caught a bad case of pneumonia." Gwalney said. "Since then, I have been advised to take a flu shot to prevent catching pneumonia again."
Wgaltney said that he had not developed the flu or pneumonia as
FLU SHOTS AVAILABLE
Flu shots are available on a walk-in basis from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday thru Friday, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Saturday and 12:30 to 4:30 p.m. Sunday at Watkins Memorial Health Center. The cost is $5.
a result of the vaccine and that he had developed a tougher immune system.
Jennifer Rock, Olathe senior,
said the flu shot kept her healthy.
"I have taken the flu shot every year," she said. "It has prevented me from getting sick in the past two-and-a-half years."
No cases of the flu have been reported at Watkins yet this year, but breakouts are possible, said Randall Rock.
"After people regather from the winter break, the potential is greater," he said.
Common symptoms of the flu are fever, headache, muscle aches and fatigue.
Common temporary side effects to flu shots are mild aches and soreness.
The health center advises those who have allergies to previous vaccines to consult with a physician before taking the vaccine.

Brett Rhennek has never had a reason to go into the Student Senate office. But the Olathe senior said he planned to stop by Senate outreach tables in the Kansas Union this week.
senior. The only problem is that many students don't do it, she said.
The Student Senate Outreach Board is sponsoring an outreach drive this week. Kim Fuchs, Student Executive Committee chairwoman, said it was a visible way to inform students about Senate.
Students have the chance to tell student senators stories on their minds everyday, said Fuchs, Merriam
"They work for us," he said. "I mean, we elected them, and we have the right to tell them what we think of the job they're doing."
Senate will have a table set up from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. today and Wednesday in the Kansas Union lobby.

Fuchs said senators would distribute information about Senate services such as Student Legislative Awareness Board, Senate committees, Center for Community Outreach and KU on Wheels. They will also listen to students' comments and suggestions, particularly regarding what to do with money in the reserve account, she said.
Fuchs said this was the first time for such extensive outreach during the spring semester, but Senate did a lot of outreach work in the fall. She also said senators did a better job last semester meeting with constituency groups.
"I have to give kudos to all the senators." Fuchs said. "They've really put in the effort when it came to their individual constituency groups."
The newspaper readership test pilot program will also be unveiled today, said Ben Walker, student body president. The Kansas City Star, The Laurence Journal World, The New York Times and USA Today all will be distributed to students free of charge at various locations around campus.

Graves proposes extra aid for special education costs
The Associated Press
TOPEKA — Alex sits in front of his computer and works on his communication skills. His eyes are bright, and he smiles frequently.
"I'm going to school," he says.
"I'm going to school," he says.
Alex is in a wheelchair, and the computer is attached to it. His voice comes from a Dynavox.
Paying for programs for Alex and other special education students is one of the biggest budget issues the state and its 304 school districts face each year. For years, schools have complained that the state doesn't provide enough money.
Gov. Bill Graves told legislators in his State of the State address that he wanted the state to pay all the extra costs associated with
1234567890
Graves: wants state to pay extra costs of special education
special education programs. He didn't spell out where the state would get the money, an extra $50 million by some estimates.
The budget he submitted is less ambitious than his rhetoric.
Currently, the state funds 85 percent of the excess costs associated with providing special education. Graves' proposed budget for the state's 2002 fiscal year, which begins July 1, would add $14 million in state and $12 million in federal funds.
Costs increase every year, and that extra $26 million in Graves' budget proposal would allow the
state to cover 85.3 percent of special education costs.
state to cover 85.3 percent or special education costs. It's no wonder that legislative leaders like House Speaker Kent Glasscock are looking to President-elect Bush's new administration for more help.
Under a 1975 act mandating special education, federal funding was supposed to pay 40 percent of costs. The actual amount frequently has been closer to 10 percent.
Glasscock, R-Manhattan, said full funding could mean $150 million for Kansas.
"Fulfillment of promises is always good public policy." he said.
In his budget, Graves has recommended a change in how special education funds are distributed. He proposed basing funding on the number of students, ending a policy of basing it on the number of teachers.
Ben Gaut, director of special services for Topeka schools, said districts must provide services whenever students arrived because of the federal mandate. This school year, the state will pay $20,300 per teacher.
"There are no more dollars in the pot. The only variable is the number of teachers," Gaut said.
Students like Alex can require additional paraprofessionals, medical equipment and even a nurse. A Dynavox, an advanced communications device, can cost as much as $10,000, said Bob Wittman, Topeka's director of K-12 special education.
"Parents see those kinds of devices and wonder why their children can't have them," Wittman said. "They don't realize how expensive they are."
By comparison, base state aid per pupil is $3,820, or a little more than a third of the cost of a Dynavax.
130-year-old church closes doors
The Associated Press
LYNDON — A church congregation faced with shrinking numbers and aging members closed its doors — as have many other rural churches in recent years. The 130-year-old First United Presbyterian Church had less than 30 members when they met for the last time in December. The youngest among them were in their 60s.
"I sure hate it, but I just don't know what to do about it now," said former member Virgie Sims, 94, who began attending the church when she was 19. "I just went by there a little while ago, and it looked kind of lonesome." Arlo Bell, a 40-year member and leader at the church, said the congregation had made every effort to boost its membership,
but to no avail.
but to no avail.
"We would go out and visit the unchurched people in the community, who would faithfully promise they would come and then never show up." Bell said.
"We sent out the newsletter to try to get the members who had fallen through the cracks to come, but that didn't seem to work."
At its height, the church had about 150 members, he said, but that was more than 20 years ago, when it could afford a full-time pastor. Since then, the church has hired part-time pastors to lead services on Sundays and fill a few other basic functions.
"We did all we could over the years, and we kept it alive as long as humanly possible," he said.
The 1,000-population Lyndon town simply wasn't big enough to support First United
Presbyterian and the six other churches in and around Lyndon, Bell said.
Joe Hendrixson, executive director of Kansas Ecumenical Ministries in Topeka, said the Lyndon church's troubles aren't uncommon.
"The other denominations really all are facing the same kind of problem ... where the populations decline, children grow up and leave town." Hendrixson said.
He said churches were finding ways to cut costs, such as uniting or sharing a pastor. But the trend of rural churches closing is likely to continue, he said.
"The real problem overall is the decline of rural communities," Hendrixson said. "Until we can learn to preserve the communities as a whole, the churches are going to suffer."

Bush celebrates King
The Associated Press
HOUSTON — President-elect George W. Bush celebrated Martin Luther King Jr. for seeing "the image of God in everyone" and, in yesterday's commemoration of the civil rights hero, promised wary black Americans: "My job will be to listen not only to the successful, but also to the suffering."
The former Republican governor of Texas, who won a dismal 5 percent of Black votes in his home state and one in nine nationwide, took a brief break from preparations
for his inaugural activities to reach out to minorities on the King holiday.
"I will remember the promise etched in this day," Bush said at the predominantly Black and Hispanic Kelso Elementary School, which was closed for the federal holiday. "Dr.King's dream placed demands on each of us."
S. HOLLYWOOD
Bush cast education reform as his own civil rights mission and said
Bush: said King's dream placed demands on all
equal opportunity eluded students in bad schools.
"The dream of equality is empty without excellent schools — schools that stress reading and discipline and character and decency, Bush said. "That goal will take presidential leadership. It is a goal we will work endlessly to achieve."
Bush has pledged that his first priority after being sworn in Saturday will be congressional passage of his voucher plan to take government money away from consistently falling public schools and give the
funds to parents to send their children elsewhere, including private or religious schools.
At Bush's side in the stuffy elementary school gymnasium, whose 100 invited guests barely outnumbered the reporters, was Education Secretary-designate Rod Paige, the Black chief of Houston's school district.
Paige told students, parents and teachers that Bush's appearance at Kelso Elementary "signals he understands the importance of this day to you and to me ... that he understands the character that Martin Luther King represented."
During his campaign, Bush turned off many Black voters by speaking at Bob Jones University, which until recently banned interracial dating, refusing to condemn the flying of the Confederate battle flag over the South Carolina Capitol and opposing a hate crime measure in Texas.
By better than a 2-to-1 margin, most Blacks believe they will lose influence under Bush, a Pew Research Center poll this month showed. And a CNN-USA Today poll last month showed less than a quarter of blacks thought Bush would work hard to address their interests.
Bush representative Ari Fleischer said Bush's need for repair work with Black Americans did not drive his King holiday schedule.
"If President-elect Bush had won with 75 percent of the African-American vote, he would be going to this event in all cases to commemorate the life of Dr. King." Fleischer told reporters.
Houston attorney Lynden B. Rose, an invited guest, saw in Bush's Cabinet and White House staff picks a leader who "really reached out and tried to include everyone."
"He's extended an olive branch," said Rose, who is African-American.
Man in intensive care after quake
The Associated Press
SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador — For two days and a night, a young musician lay beneath 15 feet of cinderblocks and mud.
But the elation when Sergio Moreno was finally freed turned to agony yesterday when heart and kidney failure left him fighting for his life.
"After so much joy when we saw him pulled out, we are again living in anguish," said his mother, Leticia del Carmen de Moreno, weeping in the hospital.
Saturday morning, Moreno, 22, was painting his new home when an earthquake sent the hillside above crashing down on top of him.
Moreno was trapped in darkness in the bathroom, with cinderblocks pinning his legs.
He had a cellular phone with him and dialed a friend. He got through and within an hour, rescuers Jhonny "Cannibal" Ramos and Manuel Guzman were cutting through concrete to open-a pathway.
Digging mostly with their hands, the two rescue workers tunneled down 15 feet and opened a small hole to where Moreno lay. They pushed in a garden hose, and told Moreno to put it in his mouth. They attached the hose to an oxygen tank so the young man could breathe.
Ramos eventually made the hole big and told Moreno to stick his arm
through it. Ramos inserted an IV tube to provide medicine and nourishment.
Finally, at 6:30 p.m. Saturday — 31 hours after the earthquake — the rescuers pulled Moreno from the rubble.
The cinderblocks had cut off circulation to Moreno's legs, and when his blood began flowing again, his body reiected it.
His heart stopped and paramedics got it started again. His kidneys shut down, and they gave him dialysis.
When his father, Juan Moreno, arrived at the hospital, Moreno fell into a coma.
Yesterday, Moreno lay in intensive care with a neck brace, a respirator and a web of tubes snaking into his arms and torso. Doctors prepared to amputate his left leg.
Commission studies holocaust repayment
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — A remarkable international campaign to compensate victims of the Holocaust 50 years after the fact proves that "there's no statute of limitations on human rights violations," says the lead U.S. envoy in the effort.
Clinton administration officials are working to the last minute this week — and urging George W. Bush's administration to follow through — on the half-decade campaign that has won billions of dollars for the aging survivors of Nazi brutality.
what's owed victims has altered the story of how the world dealt with one of the darkest chapters of the 20th century.
Though it is far from finished, the reexamination of history and recalculation of
But an addendum written in the last few years also will show that private organizations and governments worked in the late 1990s to, as Stuart Eisenstad, the Clinton administration's point man on Holocaust issues says, "bring some measure of justice to a million victims."
The Bush transition team had no immediate comment on how it would handle the issue.
A U.S. commission reports today to President Clinton on inadequacies in the
The first big fight was the 1996 claim against Swiss banks, which eventually agreed to a $1.25 billion settlement.
The case tarnished Switzerland's reputation as a neutral wartime country that had helped save Jews, adding revelations that its banks profited from the Holocaust by keeping assets of slain Jews, acting as Hitler's banker and trafficking in plundered gold.

Basketball a life's love for Jackson
By Jessie Meyer
sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportwriter
Jennifer Jackson drove the lane Saturday as Kansas State defenders collapsed into the paint. The ball left her fingertips, headed toward the rim and Jackson came crashing to the ground as the referee's whistle screamed from the baseline.
The senior point guard peered up from the ground, and as the ball dropped through the net, she thrust her fists into the air in celebration.
It wasn't the game-winning basket. It didn't break any records — that came later when Jackson set a new career point total — but it was a moment of desire meeting success.
"For me to maintain that passion,
that's what I'm here for," Jackson said.
"That's what I've worked so hard for."
But it hasn't been easy for Jackson to maintain that intensity this season. Before defeating K-State on Saturday, 78-67, Kansas
had lost six of its seven previous games and was enduring a fourgame losing streak — a streak the team hadn't seen since the 1992-93 season.
"Basketball's been a dream of mine since I was little." Jackson said. "And we go on this four-game losing streak, and I had never lost that much in my life. I was so discouraged."
"I love it so much," Jackson said of basketball. "I think that what's we all have to get back to to play well for the rest of the season."
Discouraged, but not at all ready to throw in the towel. Jackson said she talked to her mom, who reminded Jackson of how important the game was to her. It was a game, after all, her mom told her — a game that Jackson had always loved, a game that was supposed to be fun.
Jackson had a lot of fun Saturday. She led the 'Hawks with a career high of 23 points and sparked a defensive fire that had been intermittent at best in the previous 13

games this season.
"It been a long time since I've been that open," Jackson said. "I think, for whatever reason, I was a little more active today. I was able to move and get to the open spot."
"This might have been one of her best games," Washington said. "She's really good off the dribble and they left her wide open. She's trying to get back for us. We need her."
The 5-foot-10 point guard, who has averaged 7.2 points per game this season and needs 115 points to break 1,000 for her career, is not
Coach Marian Washington relies on Jackson, who has started every game this season and 105 of 106 games she's played in as a Jayhawk, to be the floor leader and to make things happen.
supposed to be a scorer. But because the Wildcats pinned seniors Jaclyn Johnson and Brooke Reves in a zone defense, Jackson was able to step up into the seams and make something happen.
"I think my role on this team is pretty clear as far as Coach and I are concerned," Jackson said. "I'm supposed to be the leader out on the floor, and for me to do that, I've got to be making sure all of my players are doing what they're supposed to do, and I've got to get the ball to the open player."
"For us to come out my senior year and have a disappointing start, I think that's extremely hard for all of us, especially the seniors," Jackson said. "But we still have a lot of games left. We have a chance to turn this around."
With her energy and passion,
Jackson set the tempo for the run-
and-gun game Kansas played
Saturday, leading the Jayhawks to
their first victory in five games.

Early victories give confidence to Javhawks
By Chris Wristen

Kansan sportswriter
As one of only two unbeaten teams in Big 12 Conference play, the Kansas men's basketball team isn't chalking up another conference title just yet.
At 13-1 overall and 2-0 in the conference, coach Roy Williams said his players understand that there are still 14 more games to play.
"All of our kids understand that it is still so, so early that we shouldn't even be looking in terms like that," Williams said. "It feels good to get two games and to get them on the road, but we do realize that it is still so early."
They also realize that the other undefeated team in conference play is Missouri. The Tigers edged No. 23 Iowa State, 112-109, in four overtimes on Saturday. The Jayhawks' first date with Missouri (12-3, 3-0) is Monday, Jan. 29, in Columbia, Mo., and Kansas has four games before that. Therefore, Williams said his team knew the conference standings could change quickly.
Regardless, No. 5 Kansas is riding a six-game winning streak and just knocked off No. 22 Oklahoma, 69-11, on Saturday on the road after fighting off a second-half run by the Sooners (12-3, 1-2). Sophomore forward Nick Collison said the victory was a confidence builder for the team and helped dispel some demons from last year's road woes. The Jayhawks lost four conference road games by an average of 19 points per game last year, making the road victory against the ranked Sooners even more satisfying.
"It wasn't one of the prettiest games we've played, but to pull out a win after they made a run at us says for us for pulling out the win." Collison said.
Williams said there were a lot of positives that his team could take from Saturday's game heading into their next game at 8

p.m. tomorrow against Nebraska (8:7, 1-1).
For starters, junior guard Jeff Boschie broke out of his season-long slump from three-point range by hitting four of eight attempts from downtown. A career 37 percent shooter from beyond the arc, Boschie made just five of his last 31 attempts since Nov. 27. He said his long range success was a definite confidence builder.
Williams also said he was pleased with his team's rebounding effort against the Sooners. Senior center Eric Chenowith grabbed 15 rebounds and senior forward Kenny Gregory had a career high of 13 in the win. Williams hopes to see a repeat performance tomorrow when his big men battle Nebraska senior center Kimani Friend.
"I tried to get my feet set," Bosche said. "I had been hopping on every shot. I still did it on one or two shots, but hopefully, I made some strides to get out of the slump."
Williams said that his Jayhawks were looking forward to their first home game since Dec. 16 and that they would need the home crowd's support to maintain their position atop the Big 12.
"We realize the building doesn't win games," Williams said. "It's the people inside that building that give you support, and that's what helps us in those games."
Kansas basketball notes
■ Kansas' victory against Oklahoma was its sixth straight against the Sooners. Oklahoma has not defeated Kansas since the Big 12 was formed in 1996.
Oklahoma's Johnnie Gilbert blocked five shots in the first half, tying for the most blocks by a Kansas opponent in a half in the Roy Williams era. Ohio State's Ken Johnson had five blocks in the first half of Kansas' 69-68 win on Dec. 23.
Led by Boschee's sharp-shooting, Kansas hit six of 13 three-point attempts. The Sooners were just as dangerous from long range, hitting eight-of-20 threes. That marked the fifth time this season that an opponent has hit better than 35 percent against Kansas on three-pointers.

Track coach pleased with team's performance
By Michael Sudhalter
Kansan sportswriter
"It was our first meet after the Christmas break, and I thought we competed hard as a team," coach Stanley Redwine said. "As a team, our conditioning isn't where I would like to see it, but we just need to get back to business and start training again."
The Kansas track team got back into the swing of things Saturday with its first meet since early December at the Missouri Southern Invitational in Joplin, Mo.
Unlike some other winter sports, the track team doesn't hold formal practices during the winter break.

"The athletes have personal workouts over the break, and for some of them, the weather
"We had a few athletes that had great days for us," Redwine said, "We are excited about Scott Russell's automatic NCAA berth in the weight throw. Ryan Speers, Charlie Gruber, Jabari Wamble and Jennifer Foster all came up for us today."
Russell, a senior All American, won the weight throw event by 18 inches, an effort that solidified his position at the NCAA Championships in Fayetteville, Ark. Russell threw 72 in the weight throw, which helped him become Big 12 men's track athlete of the week. He also placed third in the shot put with a 53-foot throw. Junior Ryan Speers won the
Redwine said he was pleased with the efforts of several members of the men's team, which was ranked No. 22 in the National Collegiate Trackwine poll during the open meet.
Wamble won the 200-meter dash with a time of 22.05 seconds and ran in the 4x400 meter relay team that won the event. Senior Charlie Gruber, another All American, won the mile event in 4:08.57 and competed along with Wamble on the 4x400 relay team.
shot put event with a 61 inch throw and finished second behind Russell in the weight throw competition.
Other winners for the Jayhawks included senior Andy Tate (8:30.13) in the 3,000-meter run , junior Brent Behrens (15:05.68) in the 5,000-meter run and senior Eric Patterson in the 60-meter high hurdles (8.09).
In the women's competition, junior Jennifer Foster had second place finishes in the shot put (45-10 3/4) and weight throw (50-2). Other strong performances were turned in by senior All-American Andrea Branson, who finished
third in the pole vault with an 11-9 3/4. The 4x400 meter relay team placed second behind Arkansas with a time of 400.54.
Jayhawks finishing in the top five in their respective events were junior Shanetta March (200-meter dash); senior Amanda Reves (800 meters); freshman Laura Laviole (mile); sophomore Eve Lambord and junior Courtney Deustch (3,000 meter); freshman Paige Higgins (5,000 meter); sophomore Sarah Schrader and freshman Emily Hess (high jump).
The Jayhawks travel to Columbia, Mo., for the Missouri Invitational on Friday.
Redwine said the next few meets should be beneficial to both the men's and women's teams.
"Our goal is to do our very best at the Big 12 and NC'AA'. Redwine said.

It's time to peel yourself away from those Playstations and set your alarms for earlier than noon. It's time to get back to class — you know, the place you go when you're not on vacation.
'Hawks ranking repeats history means nothing
So as we dig ourselves out of those buttgrooves on our couches, force ourselves to bathe and head back to Mount Oread for another joyful semester of class, we should reflect on the basketball season to date. In case you've been living under a rock instead of on top of a La-Z-Boy this past break, Kansas is 13-1 and ranked fifth in the nation. This means absolutely nothing.
You see, the Jayhawks have been down this road before — they were ranked eighth in the nation at this same point last year—and ended up the season with a 24-10 belly flop and another early NCAA Tournament ouster. As the season reaches its halfway point, let's give out some awards for the past few months of effort.
Biggest Win: Believe it or not, many observers expected Kansas to go into Oklahoma last weekend and do one of those road-game flops that they had become known for during the past two seasons. The Sooners are a much more physical team than the Jayhawks, and more physical teams have been the Achilles' heel of Kansas. Still, the Jayhawks forced Oklahoma to shoot just 31.9 percent from the floor and hold off Oklahoma. 69-61. In a situation where they failed last season, the Jayhawks flourished instead.
Worst Kept Secret of the First Half: The transfer of junior guard John Crider. Crider was held out of the Jayhawks' exhibition game against Emporia State, only fueling the rumors that he would transfer. But Williams refused to acknowledge that there was anything to the rumors. Williams said he just "chose not to play him," while Crider refused to speak to the media. Apparently, Williams chose not to play Crider for the entire remainder of the semester (granted), he was hampered by an injury), but Williams tried his best to avoid speaking about Crider. And guess what? Crider transferred to Washburn last week.
Biggest Embarrassment: Kansas' home non-conference schedule. Coach Roy Williams must have felt like punishing his big-butted crowd by scheduling basketball juggernauts North Dakota, Washburn, Illinois State, Boise State and Middle Tennessee State for a five-game pre-holiday homestand. The play was as bad as the opponents, and, as a result, the Jayhawks looked like the worst prepared team in NCAA history when they traveled to Wake Forest at the conclusion of the homestand and were drilled, 84-53.
Box Score Line of the First Half: In the second half against Washburn, sophomore forward Nick Collison played one minute, committed three personal fouls and had one turnover. Must have been the tough Ichabod defense.
Player Most In Need of a Haircut:
Junior guard Jeff Boschee. Although Boschee led the Jayhawks with 16 points at Oklahoma, the former bald Boschee's shooting has been erratic at best this season. He has hit only 19 of 66 three pointers this season and has done nothing to prove that his hairstyle has meant improved results.
Most Underrated: Senior center Eric Chenowith. It's funny how Kansas' most maligned player can also be its most under-rated, but it's been true this season. Although Chenowith has yet to find his long-lost consistency on offense, he has been dominant both on the glass and on the defensive end of the court. He leads the team with 94 boards per game and has stuffed 23 shots this season. In fact, the key to how far Kansas will go in March lies directly with the big fella. If Chenowith performs like he did against the Demon Deacons — one point and five rebounds — the Jayhawks will once again go home early from the big dance.
As for what the remainder of the season will bring, that's anyone's guess. But this team is better than last season, and, if the Jayhawks keep playing the way they are, they should advance past the second round of the tournament.
But exactly how much further? That depends on Chenowith.

"I am very much in support of John Crider and his decision to go to Washburn," Williams said. "I respect (Washburn coach) Bob Chipman very much both as a coach and as a person, and that had a big impact on me in giving John some guidance. John is a marvelous young man and will always be thought of as part of the Jayhawk family. He just desperately wanted to be somewhere where he could play more, and the best place for that to happen for him is at Washburn."
Because Crider played four minutes in Kansas' first exhibition game against the California All-Stars, he lost a year of eligibility and will be a senior at Washburn next year. Crider will appeal that decision and try to regain his junior status.

BIG 12 BASKETBALL
MU and OSU players earn weekly awards
DALLAS — Missouri junior
Clarence Gilbert turned in a Big 12
record scoring game in the
Missouri's 11.2-109 quadruple overtime win against Iowa State.
Gilbert tied the league record with 43 points and was named the Phillips 66 Big 12 Player of the Week. Oklahoma State junior Maurice Baker showed his leadership in two Cowboys' victories.
The guard averaged 18 points, which included a career-high tying 26 against Iowa State. Baker has been named the Phillips 66 Big 12 Rookie of the Week for the second time this season. Both honors are selected by a media panel.
Gilbert opened the week scoring 22 points in the Tigers' 82-76 win at
Colorado. The Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., guard was 9-for-9 from the free throw line against the Buffs as well. Gilbert's 43 points against Iowa State were the most points for an individual in a Big 12 contest as he broke numerous school and league records. His 43 points tied Texas' Reggie Freeman's 43 points against Fresno State in 1996 for the all-game league record.
His output was the fourth-most in Missouri history and the most since Anthony Peeler scored 43 at Kansas in 1992. Gilbert averaged 32.5 points which included 10 three-point field goals and a 21-for-26 effort from the free throw line. He also dished out 11 assists in the two games and had only one turnover.
AMES, Iowa — Brandon Hawkins' departure from the Iowa State basketball team took the other players by surprise.
Hawkins leaves ISU hoping for larger role
Hawkins, who had started the first seven games, met with coach Larry Eustachy late last week. When Eustachy could not guarantee Hawkins a bigger role on the team, he decided to leave, Eustachy said yesterday.
Hawkins played 25 minutes in his last game with the Cyclones, an 80-68 loss at Iowa on Dec. 9. He had played a total of only seven minutes in the two previous games.
"Brandon simply wanted to play a bigger role on this team and there was no room for him to play a bigger role, neither now nor in the future," Eustachy said. "He's a player at this level."

弓箭运动员
Voted women's college basketball player of the year last season, Catchings had torn a ligament in her right knee. Tennessee's 66-59 win against No. 21 Mississippi State didn't seem that important any more.
"She fell hard and landed on that knee, but she said she didn't feel anything when she went down but that it was hurting." Summitt said.
"When she came down the floor, I watched her because she plays so hard and really comes in and jump starts and shoots," Summitt said. "I did not see her knee give out."
The coaches had hoped that because Catchings didn't hear or feel a pop, which normally indicates torn ligaments, the injury wasn't serious.
Several hours later last night, the team orthopedist determined Catchings had torn the ACL, ending her season and career at Tennessee.
A surgery date has not been set. Catchings was not available for interviews after the game.
The 6-foot-1 senior from Duncanville, Texas, who finished with a team-leading 17 points and 13 rebounds, left with 5:34 remaining and Tennessee ahead 55-46.
"We lost our best player and leader," Summitt said. "She was injured the way she played the game — all out and hard on every play."

Pretty boring stuff.
By this time, during your first day of school, you're probably sitting in either your history or math class bored out of your mind. Your eyelids are getting heavy as your teacher is blabbing on about syllabi and mandatory attendance and failing grades.
Pretty boring stuff.
So while you have the opportunity, take a second to read this column and find out what we in the sports department have in store for you, our readers, this semester.
First of all, we will continue to cover your favorite Kansas sports teams with the same gusto that we have in the past. We'll be there when both Kansas basketball teams storm into the postseason, we'll be there when the baseball and softball teams start play, and we'll be there for the 2001 Kansas Relays in April. In other words, we'll keep bringing you the sports news that you want to read about.
Other than that, you will also be starting to notice some upgrades
to the sports section as the semester progresses. These are just three new features that you can expect to see in the next couple of weeks:
Flashback If you're like most of us here in the Kansan sports department, you have found yourselves at one time or another trying to rehash the memories of games and events that have occurred in the past.
Want to relive those memories of the 1991 and 1993 Kansas men's basketball Final Four teams? Want to relive the Kansas football team's 1992 and 1995 bowl seasons? Or want to relive any other Kansas sports memory that pops into your mind? The Flashback feature will let you do so every Monday in the Kansan.
Where are they now? This feature will appear in the Kansan starting next Wednesday. The premise behind the feature is simple.
Ever wonder what happened to long-lost Kansas basketball players Calvin Rayford, B.J. Williams, Cedric Hunter, Scooter Barry, Calvin Thompson and Nick Proud? Or ever wonder where in the world former football stars Mark Williams, June Henley and Gilbert Brown have ran off to? We here at the Kansan sports department will attempt to tell you where they have been.
Our worldwide searches will not
be contained just to the basketball and football teams either. We will try to cover every sport possible.
So if you have any information regarding the aforementioned players, or if there are "lost" athletes that pop into your head at any time during the semester, drop us a line at sports@kansan.com. We'll work our hardest to track them down for you.
Athlete-of-the-Week The premise behind this feature is also amazingly simple. The Kansan sports staff will decide on a Kansas athlete who we think performed the best during each week of the semester.
This particular Kansas athlete will be honored for impressive play on the court or field. Feel free to e-mail us with nominations of athletes you would like to see honored and why. The Athlete-of-the-Week will be announced every Friday in the Kansan.
These are just a few of the ideas we have rolling around in our heads. As mentioned countless times before, don't hesitate to e-mail us, call us at 864-4858, or stop by 117 Stauffer-Flint to talk to us. After all, we're here to make your history and math classes that much more bearable.

NORMAN, Okla. — The Kansas men's basketball team already proved it could win pretty this season, but Saturday the Jayhawks did the dirty work in beating No. 22 Oklahoma. 69-61.
No. 5 Kansas was in a defensive tussle from the game's opening tip. After two Eric Chenowith tree throws and a Kenny Gregory dunk stretched the early lead to 9-3, the Sooners pressured Kansas into a nearly seven-minute scoring drought and charged ahead 12-9 on a Hollis Price three-pointer.
"It was really a battle out there — a war," said Kansas coach Roy Williams. "It's no secret that both teams are filled with very competitive ballplayers who displayed a great deal of toughness in today's game."
So tough, in fact, that Oklahoma leading scorer Aaron McGhee, averaging 16.4 points per game, did not score.
After weathering its scoring slump, Kansas responded with sharp shooting and staunch defense of its own. The Jayhawks held Oklahoma to seven points during a 10-minute stretch while building a 31-19 lead. Junior guard Jeff Boschee hit three 3-pointers and Gregory, a senior forward, scored five points during the run. Boschee added a fourth 3-pointer in the second half and led Kansas
with 16 points.
Oklahoma guard Kelly Newton hit two late threes, including a 35-foot at the buzzer, that cut the Javahawks' halftime lead to 33-25.
Oklahoma football coach Bob Stoops 'halftime announcement that he would remain at the school created a buzz among the 11,183 fans that carried onto the basketball court in the second half. Nolan Johnson and Daryan Selvy found their marks and Johnson's 12-foot jumper rattled in and tied the game at 40-10.
That's when Nick Collison took over and proved to be the crowd-queter. *
On the Jayhawks' next two possessions, they looked inside to the sophomore forward. His hook shot and layup gave Kansas a 44-10 lead, and the 'Hawks never looked back.
Sophomore point guard Kirk Hinrich scored six of Kansas' next seven points and helped put the game away. He was one of four Jayhawks to score in double-digits; not bad for a game where both teams played tough defense.
"You think about the last two games we've played against Oklahoma, and they've scored 50 points," Williams said. "For 40 minutes we competed as hard as we have all year. Defensively we haven't been that good this year, but you compete real hard and that makes up for those things."

Oklahoma upbeat despite loss
By Zac Hunter

Kansan sportswriter
NORMAN, Okla. — You would never know it by Oklahoma coach Kelvin Sampson's postgame comments, but the Sooners had just lost their second conference game of the season.
He said he was pleased with how his team played against Kansas for the first 10 minutes of the game and the first 10 minutes of the second half during which the Sooners completely shut down the Jayhawks' inside game.
Oklahoma dropped to 1-2 in the Big 12 Conference after a 69-61 loss to Kansas on Saturday. But despite that losing conference record, Sampson was optimistic.
"I can't tell you how pleased I was defensively and rebounding," he said.
Kansas had a huge size advantage in the paint, with the Sooners' two tallest players standing at 6-foot-9. But it was almost as if those two didn't even show up to play. Kansas held junior forwards Ronnie Griffin and Aaron McGhee, who combine for more than 20 points per game, to just three points.
"We tried to focus our defense on him," said Kansas coach Roy Williams, referring to McGhee. "The youngster probably just didn't have a good day, but we hope our defense had something to do with that."
McGhee is Oklahoma's leading scorer at more than 16 points per game, and although he didn't score, he did manage to corral eight rebounds.
"You don't ever fault a kid's effort," Sampson said. "They are trying to score. None of them are trying not to score or trying to get their shot blocked."
While the Sooner players weren't burning out bulbs on the Lloyd Noble Center scoreboard, they were getting the job done on the boards. Oklahoma overcame a huge size disadvantage and bettered Kansas in rebounding for almost the entire game before finally losing the edge during the final minutes, as Kansas outrebounded Oklahoma .
"We don't have a great rebounder, but we've got a lot of guys that are good rebounders," Sampson said.
Not one player had more than 10 rebounds, but the Sooners managed to hold their own against a Kansas team that seems to have an endless supply of players that are 6-foot-9 or taller.
"You don't look at who had the most rebounds to tell who was the best rebounding team," Sampson said.

Women 1-2 in conference play
KANSAS 00 KANSAS HALATIO NIVEILOR

Winter break was a time off for students to relax and catch up on sleep, but for women's basketball teams around the Big 12 Conference, winter break meant the start of conference play.
Kansas, 6-7 overall and 1-2 in the Big 12, opened conference play with back-to-back losses to Baylor and Iowa State. But the Jayhawks did pick up a victory on Saturday with a 78-67 thumping of Kansas State at Allen Fieldhouse.
Senior guard Jennifer Jackson led Kansas with a career-high 23 points and senior forward Brooke Reves added 21 in a game that coach Marian Washington said might be the Jayhawks 'most complete performance.
The biggest key for Kansas will be keeping the momentum going into its game tomorrow at Oklahoma State. Like Kansas, the Cowgirls have struggled early on in conference play, falling to 04 after a 64-43 loss to No. 15 Texas on Saturday.
Jackson, whose 12 first-half points helped the Jayhawks build a 46-27 lead against the Wildcats, said getting that first conference win should boost the team's confidence heading into Oklahoma State.
"I think any time you're on a four-game losing streak, a victory is important." Jackson said. "I think everybody in the locker room is tired of losing."
For K-State, Saturday's defeat leaves behind a sour taste. It was the team's fourthstraight loss in the Big 12. Wildcats' coach Deb Patterson said her team was searching for answers after another disappointing loss.
"This is two games in a row that we've let our opponent pull away, pull away in a big way," she said.
Patterson was most discouraged by the Wildcats' overabundance of turnovers. K-State shot 61.8 percent from the field and 58.3 percent from behind the arc, but still let the Javahawks win by committing 29 turnovers.
KState's next game is tomorrow at home against Texas
Elsewhere in the Big 12:
Missouri senior forward Amanda Lassiter led all scorers with 28 points in the Tigers' game at Colorado on Sunday, but she couldn't lead them to a victory. Missouri lost to Colorado, 98-90, for the 11th straight time in Boulder, Colo. The loss dropped the Tigers to 11-4 and 2-2. Missouri's next game is tomorrow at Iowa State.
Baylor, 13-2 and 2-2, is finding out firsthand just how tough the Big 12 can be. The Bears waltzed through non-conference play, compiling a 9-0 record, and, after victories against Oklahoma State and Kansas, earned a spot in the Top 25.
But the Bears have met trouble as of late, suffering their first loss of the season to Texas Tech, 81-64, on Jan. 10, and losing a close one at home to Oklahoma on Saturday.
Iowa State, 14-1 and 4-0, has used a simple
Iowa State's only blemish this season came on Dec. 30 in a 81-63 loss at Duke. The Cyclones, ranked seventh in the nation, join Texas Tech as the only teams still undefeated in Big 12 play.
formula on its way to a 40 start in the Big 12. Eleven different Cyclones scored in their most recent victory, an 89-46 thrashing of Nebraska on Saturday.

Junior forward inspires 'Hawks in K-State win
Desperate to stop its four-game losing skid, the Kansas women's basketball team needed some motivation for its Saturday match-up against Kansas State in Allen Fieldhouse.
That motivation came from a usually quiet Jayhawk. Junior forward Katie Hannon, who played just 29 minutes this season and scored only six points, delivered her first speech to the team in the locker room before the game — a speech senior Brooke Reves said set the tone of an intense game for the Jayhawks.
"She said, 'Look, we're not intense, not in your eyes. I can't see it in your eyes,' " Reves said. "And we said, 'You know, you're right. We've got to get this together right now. We've got to play this game with intensity and win the game.' "
The speech sparked a newfound determination in the 'Hawks, who handed the Wildcats their fifth loss overall with a 78-67 victory. The win brought Kansas' record to 7-7 overall and 1-2 in the Big 12, while the Wildcats dropped to 10-5 and 0-4.
On a mission to reverse what has been a disappointing stretch in the season, the 'Hawks took control of the game and pressured the Wildcats up and down the floor, forcing 29 turnovers and holding freshman center Nicole Ohlde — K-State's leading scorer — to 17 points.
"I think we really did play maybe the best game we've played so far this season."
"We played about 95 percent of the game as well as we would hope," said coach Marian Washington. "I thought we came out and played very aggressively both on the offense and defensive ends.
The Wildcats never got into an offensive rhythm as the Jayhawks constantly pressured the ball with a trapping and aggressive defense. As the game sped up, the Wildcats tried to slow the pace by sinking back into a zone defense — a defense that held senior

Jaclyn Johnson, the Jayhawks' leading scorer, to nine points, but opened up holes for other Kansas scorers.
Senior guard Jennifer Jackson, who had a 7.2 point-per-game average before Saturday, led the offensive attack with a career-high 23 points. She helped the 'Hawks rip off a 21-7 run in the first half en route to a 46-27 halftime lead.
K-State scrambled to get back in the game in the second half with a three-point assault, led by Kristin Rethman. The junior guard was a perfect 5-for-5 from the field, 4-for-4 from behind the arc and 8-for-8 from the charity stripe. But it came too little too late for the Wildcats, who trailed by as much as 27 in the second half.
"I think it was really important for us to come out and play hard," Jackson said. "I think we did that very well."
Despite losing six of their previous seven games, Washington said the team had been in many of those games but fell just short of pulling out victories.
"It's a great win and hopefully we can build on it," Washington said. "We just are challenging ourselves to be better and willing to take some risks and be much more aggressive."
Although it was just one win, Reves said she thought the K-State victory was a new beginning for the 'Hawks.
"I think this is like a new season for us," Reves said. "That's how I'm looking at it. We've just got to step forward and keep stepping forward, not take any steps back."
Game notes:
Johnson moved to ninth all-time in Kansas rebounds with 735, passing Charisse Sampson, who had 733.
Reves scored 21 points, raising her career total to 917.
The Jayhawks continued their dominance against K-State in Lawrence. The Wildcats' last win in Allen Fieldhouse was January 1991.

Tigers crack Top 25 for first time with Snyder
The Associated Press
A week in which 15 ranked teams lost 19 times didn't change things at the top of The Associated Press college basketball poll yesterday, but there was plenty of movement below and two newcomers.
Stanford, although not unanimous this week, was No.1 for the secondstraight week, while Duke, Michigan State, Tennessee and Kansas held second through fifth.
Then came changes, including No. 14 Iowa returning to the rankings after a two-week absence and No. 20 Missouri moving into the poll for the first time under coach Quin Snyder.
Stanford (15-0), which beat both Oregon schools in the Pac-10 by 24 points last week, received 69 firstplace votes and 1,749 points from the national media panel.
vote.
Duke (15-1), which beat them No. 10 Virginia 103-61 last week, got 1,675 points and the only other first-place
North Carolina moved up three places to sixth, while Florida gained one spot to seventh. Syracuse and Georgetown (15-0) — the only other unbeaten Division I team — each climbed three spots to eighth and ninth, while Wake Forest, which lost to Georgia Tech in overtime, dropped four places to round out the Top Ten.
Illinois, which had been No. 7 but lost to Iowa last week, led the Second Ten, followed by Maryland, Virginia and Iowa, with Alabama and Connecticut tied at 15th. Arizona, Seton Hall, Wisconsin and Missouri followed.
The last five ranked teams were Mississippi, Oklahoma, Iowa State, Southern California and Boston College.
Iowa (14-2) moved back into the poll. The Hawkeyes, who beat Illinois and Purdue last week, were ranked for three weeks earlier in the season, getting as high as No. 19.
before falling out for the last two weeks.
Missouri (12-3) was last in the Top 25 in the 1988-99 season, Norm Stewart's last as coach of the Tigers. Snyder took over last season and the Tigers moved back into the rankings following their 112-109 victory against Iowa State in four overtimes.
Texas (12-3), which had been No. 23, dropped out after two weeks following a loss at Nebraska.
Notre Dame (9-5) was one of four ranked teams to lose twice last week, falling to Seton Hall and Kentucky. The Fighting Irish had been ranked all season, getting as high as No. 10. They then lost home games to Indiana and Miami of Ohio before a four-game winning streak to close non-conference play. They lost two of their first three Big East games — Syracuse and Seton Hall — then lost to Kentucky last Saturday.
Besides Notre Dame, Virginia, Wisconsin and Iowa State also lost two games last week.

Win at Washington was a Giant turning point
The Associated Press
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.
Michael Strahan knows exactly when the New York Giants became a team of destiny.
It wasn't when Jim Fassel issued his playoff guarantee on Nov. 22.
It came a little less than two weeks later, when they beat the Washington Redskins 9-7 on the road.
under immense
With the Giants starting preparations for the Super Bowl game against Baltimore in two weeks, the victory in Washington might seem to be just one of a dozen during the regular season.
But the importance of that game cannot be measured by a single W.
Everything changed on Dec. 3 for the Giants, who had missed the playoffs the past two seasons.
They stopped seeing themselves as a mediocre team that couldn't beat anyone well. Not only did they win, they won
GIANTS
into third place in the NFC East. Instead, the Giants won and moved into first place in the division when the Philadelphia Eagles lost to Tennessee on a last-second field goal.
"We started pulling together at that point," Strahan said. "We beat the Cardinals in Arizona the week before (after the guarantee). We played a great game, but we felt the ultimate test for us was the Redskins in Washington.
"Had we lost that game on that last-second field goal, that would have set us back a couple of years. It would have been devastating."
They came close to losing, but Eddie Murray's 49-yard field goal attempt fell short in the final minute.
"We won, and we found out if we stay together and play together, we got a chance to win," Strahan said. "We've done that. The bigger the game, the more we come together."
That's been obvious in the playoffs. New York, which has won seven straight games, has not been challenged in beating Philadelphia 20-10 last week and crushing the Minnesota Vikings 41-0 in the NFC championship on Sunday.
Fassel, who spent nearly two hours in bed Sunday night thinking about the Super Bowl, said the thought of an NFL title was never on his mind when he guaranteed that the Giants would make the playoffs for the first time since 1997.
of games and picked up a little momentum, it was capable of winning the division.
He felt if the team won a couple
"If we won our division, I felt we had as good a chance as anyone," Fassel said. "I felt that way because I believed in the character of this football team. They were doing everything we asked of them and anything was possible."
Now the Giants are a game away, and they don't expect the Super Bowl to be anything like their game with the Vikings.
The Ravens allowed an NFL record low 165 points in the regular season and 16 in three postseason games.
"It's certainly not going to be the kind of game we had yesterday," said quarterback Kerry Collins, who completed 28 of 39 passes for 381 yards and five touchdowns against the Vikings. "They will be the best defense we've faced all year."
The Giants came into Sunday's game planning to pass to set up
Collins expects a more conservative, risk-free, grind-it-out approach against the Ravens.
the run.
"Heck, a field goal can win it," Strahan said. "This is that type of game. Baltimore is that type of defense. Heck, they score a touchdown and it's tough. Yesterday, you saw after Shannon Sharpe caught the touchdown the game was over. That defense is unbelievable."
Almost as unbelievable as the Giants being in the Super Bowl.
"Thirty-one teams come into the season saying they want to go to the Super Bowl," Collins said. "To be one of the two standing is pretty amazing.
"You dream it and you think it, but you realize what has to happen for you to get there. You realize it takes a lot of togetherness, a lot of team work and a lot of chemistry. We had all three this year."
The Giants also had a big win against Washington that gave them the momentum.
Vermeil introduces new staff
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — It's one coordinator down and one to go for new Kansas City Chiefs coach Dick Vermeil.
"I don't think it will take much longer." Vermeil said.
Vermille introduced former Denver coach Greg Robinson as his defensive coordinator yesterday and said he still was waiting for permission from the St. Louis Rams to talk to Al Saunders about becoming offensive coordinator.
much longer," Vermen still. "Tensions may still be tight between the two clubs. The Rams and Chiefs had to take their dispute about compensation for hiring Vermeil to the NFL commissioner, who ordered the Chiefs to give up draft picks.
But Vermeil said he did not expect any problems in getting permission to talk to Saunders, a member of the St. Louis staff the past four years and a longtime assistant coach in Kansas City under Marty Schottenheimer.
Robinson, 49, replaces Kurt Schottenheimer, who was dismissed along with most of Gunther Cunningham's staff. He said he would like to return to the aggressive man-to-man coverage which once characterized the Chiefs defense.
"I think man-to-man is critical in this league," Robinson said.
With as many as three rookies starting at times in the secondary this past season, the Chiefs did not play nearly as much of the aggressive pass coverage they had been known for in the past.
"But at the same time, I don't think you can do just one thing," Robinson said. "You have to have the ability to be a good coverage team."

Women's swimming team kicks to victory
By Aaron Fulk
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
Hard work in the Sunshine State during winter break paid off for the Kansas women's swimming and diving team on Saturday as it posted a lopsided victory against Southern Illinois.
Women's coach Cathy Burgess was excited about her team's 135-97 win against the Salukis.
"I am thrilled that we won the meet by such a margin," she said. "After spending the last 10 days training hard on our trip to Florida, it was exciting to see a lot of season-best times."
Sophomore Gwen Haley took first place in the 200-meter butterfly, the 500-meter freestyle and the 200-meter breaststroke. Haley had season-best times in all three events.
Junior Carrie Kirkham claimed victories in both the five-meter freestyle and the 100-meter freestyle races.
Sophomore Beth Shryer came away with back-to-back victories in the 1,000-meter freestyle and the 200-meter freestyle.
Freshman Maegen Himes posted her collegiate best in the 200 individual medley, claiming the title.
Sophomore Kristi Misejke swept the diving competition after claiming titles in both the one-meter and
three-meter boards.
The men's scores looked similar to the women's scores, but the results favored the Salukis. The Kansas men lost the dual after a final posted score of 138-99, dropping their record to 0-4.
"It was a meet we could have won if everything went right," said men's coach Doug Dickinson. "That didn't quite work out, but there are some very positive things we can take out of this meet."
Some Jayhawk men did have success against the Salukis. After contending with Southern Illinois' Derek Helvey for much of the 1,000-meter freestyle race, sophomore Brian Soria, a 2000 U.S. Olympic trialist, overtook Helvey in the last 100 meters of the race and claimed the title. Soria also finished third in the 500-meter freestyle event.
Senior Rob Kelley captured the 200-meter backstroke and posted a team-best time for the season.
Matt Hanson, sophomore, won the 200-meter butterfly title after defeating his opponents by nearly two seconds.
The Kansas swimming team's next competition will be a dual with Nebraska on Friday, Jan. 26. The diving team will travel to Los Angeles this weekend for a competition at UCLA.

Stoops to stay a Sooner
By Zac Hunter and Chris Wristen
sports@kansan.com
Kranson sportswriters
NORMAN, Okla. — Nearly six months after Roy Williams made his famous "I'm staying" speech, Oklahoma football coach Bob Stoops made one of his own.
Stoops announced at halftime of Saturday's 69-61 Kansas basketball win that he would not accept the Cleveland Brown's 'offer to be head coach.
Stoops was flanked by the Sooners' National Championship trophy when he spoke to the crowd of 11,183 at the Lloyd Noble Center. His announcement was greeted with a standing ovation.
"I want to let everybody know that I still believe it is a privilege to be the head football coach at the University of Oklahoma," Stoops said. "Regardless of what you hear, I plan on being at Oklahoma for a long time."
Following the announcement, Stoops refused to comment about alleged discussions with Brown's president Carmen Policy. He did, however, respond to questions about being "intrigued" by the job with the Browns.
"I said it intrigued me." Stoops said.
"A lot of things intrigue me. Coaching high school intrigues you. You never know what your life brings you."
Apparently life will keep Stoops in Norman for the time being, calming the nerves of Oklahoma fan Michael Ginson.
"I didn't think he would leave."
Gipson said. "I thought if he went anywhere, then it would be Ohio State. It's just nice to know he's going to be back here. They need him around, and this is just the beginning for the Sooners."
Not all fans found comfort in Stoops' words, though
Oklahoma fan Bob Gregory said he thought Stoops' speech was a smoke screen to keep people off his back while he pondered the opportunities an NFL team would offer.
"I think he's going to Cleveland next week to talk to them." Gregory said. "I think we've always understood that sometime he wants to coach the best, which will be a professional football player."
The fact that Stoops is an Ohio native has fuelled suspicion that he might bail for Cleveland.
"I can imagine if someone asked you to come coach the team you grew up loving, it would be a tough call," Gregory said. "And then top it off with five million."
Stops' coaching history before going to Oklahoma was surrounded with success, and that success carried into his coaching career with the Sooners.
In his second year as coach, the Sooners capped a 130 season with the 2001 National Championship. Oklahoma went 7-5 in 1999 and lost to Mississippi in the Independence Bowl. Prior to Oklahoma, Stoops served three years as defensive coordinator at Florida and spent seven years as a Kansas State assistant coach.

Lines lead to petition, frustration
By Amanda Beglin
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
When the waiting line for financial aid refunds wound down two floors of the Kansas Union on Friday, Kiran Jayaram knew it was time for a change.
For Jayaram, Overland Park graduate student, the scene was all-to-familiar. He recalled standing in long lines in semesters past when hundreds of students arrived to collect refund checks.
This semester, he transposed his frustration into a petition to change the way students receive financial aid refunds. But his efforts raised questions about students' rights to petition and hold protests on campus.
Part of the problem was that Jayram didn't ask permission before conducting his petition, said Sgt. Troy Malien of the KU Public Safety Office. There generally is not a problem with petitioning on campus, he said, as long as the proper steps are taken.
"Every student has the same freedom to petition on campus as anywhere else," Malen said. "My guess is the problem was where he was. Usually you have to go through an event coordinator to arrange something like that."
Gene Wee, reservations coordinator for the Kansas and Burge Unions, said that students like Jayaram had the right to set up a table.
"The general rule is that if you're going to set up a table, we want to help," Wee said. "We don't want to hide people. We put them in a place with lots of traffic, like Jaihawk Walk, so people can come to you. That way, people aren't bothered if they're eating or studying. There's a balance between helping the table and protecting others. For the most part, it's successful."
But Jayaram said he just moved out of line and started talking to people.
"I said, 'If you're upset, sign this paper,' and slowly but surely, people began to sign," he said.
"I told him that according to student guidelines, I could be here," Jayaram said. "And then he left."
Jayaram said he was walking alongside people with his petition when Victor Torres, bursar of the University comptroller's office, approached him. Jayaram said Torres asked him what he was doing. When Jayaram said he was petitioning, he was told he couldn't be there.
"She told me I was holding up the line, which is just a huge irony to me." Jayaram said. "There's all these people waiting in line and the problem is that they were waiting in line."
Jayaram said a Union administrator approached him minutes later, as his petition list grew to more than 100 people in less than 30 minutes.
Jayaram said he told the woman he was a concerned student with a right to petition, and then she left.
fortres made a formal complaint, which sent KU Public Safety Officer Steve Mooney and Bill Towns, Kansas and Burge Unions operations supervisor, to the fifth floor in search of Jayaram. They asked him to move away from the line because he couldn't petition in the doorway.
"They told me that if I didn't leave, I could be arrested." Jayaram said.
Wee helped Jayaram set up a table in the fourth floor lobby to continue his petition. Jayaram said Wee told him that he couldn't approach passing students, but that it was not a problem to conduct his petition from the table. Wee said he agreed with Jayaram's complaint and that the financial aid office could have a better system.
"I can't vouch for the process," We said. "We leave it up to them. It's their own right if they don't want somebody there. But the line was the longest I've ever seen it. I agree, there must be a better way."
Jayarum said he would attend the Wednesday, Jan. 31 Student Senate meeting to discuss his petition and ask for help.
"I'm trusting them with this now," Jayaram said. "They are supposed to work for the students, and that's who I'm trying to help."
Jayarum has a few ideas of his own, including a distribution system based on KUID, with designated times for students to pick up their checks.

Fraternity closes house doors
By Danny Phillips

Kanson staff writer
The Delta Tau Delta fraternity closed the doors to its house indefinitely this weekend because of a lack of membership, house corporation board president Scott Mark said.
The chapter is still open and will continue to operate outside the building, 1111 W. 11th St. The Delta Tau Delta House Corporation, the entity that owns the house and property, is looking for a prospective lease-holder.
As for the future of the 23 current fraternity members, all have found new places to live, said Jerod Kelley, fraternity president and Olathe sophomore. He said even though the fraternity didn't have a common home right now, the members still kept in touch and planned to continue participating in activities together.
DELTA TAU DEL
we haven't just split up totally." Kelley said. Kelley said he thought the fraternity lost its house because of financial problems, not because of recruiting problems.
"The whole thing is a money game." Kelley said. He said the $1 million renovation of the fraternity house in the mid-1905 was the beginning of the chapter's financial woes.
Kelley said the fraternity's national organization could have intervened when it saw the chapter was having difficulties and helped pay its bills, but the organization opted to let the building close.
"They want to regroup and see what's going on." Kelley said.
Kelley also hasn't given up hope of moving back into the house.
"Our goal is to come back in the near future on campus," Kelley said.

El Salvador quake hits home for students
By J. R. Mendoza editor@kansan.com Kansan wire editor
This is one instance in which Ryan Dolan can be proud of his procrastination.
Dolan, a Lawrence junior and Kansan columnist, had planned to visit his older sister and her family in El Salvador last weekend, but he decided to postpone his trip because of papers he had to write.
Saturday, when he was supposed to have been there, the country was hit by a magnitude-7.6 earthquake.
"My parents joked at the time that preracination paid off for me." Dolan said. "My parents were really happy I didn't go."
The death toll has reached 672 and was expected to rise as authorities reach communities isolated by landslides. Officials said that more than 2,500 people were injured by Saturday's quake and that nearly 45,000 had to be evacuated.
But Dolan still thought that he should have been there with his sister, Beth
Pleitez, who lives in Santa Tecla, a suburb outside of the capital, San Salvador. She lives there with her husband, Hector, and two children, 2-year-old Alejandro and 6-month-old Carmen Sofia.
Beth Pleitez was hurt after a water heater fell on her, but none of the rest of her family was injured. Dolan said.
"She got a badly-bruised leg," Dolan said. "She thought she had broken it."
Dolan said he found out about the quake just hours after it happened and felt bad that he wasn't there for his sister.
"I talked to her Monday," he said. "She's doing fine."
Despite surviving the quake, the Pleitez family had to sleep outside for a few nights because of aftershocks.
"The country is in really bad shape." Delaware "A lot of people are homeless."
Dolton said. A lot of people are homeless. His sister is helping rescue crews and other people who were affected by the earthquake, he said.

donations for the homeless. They need everything."
He said his sister and her family were very lucky that they didn't suffer greater injuries.
Oliver Komar, Newton, Mass., graduate student in ecology, said his wife, Lorena
Rosales, had family in El Salvador.
Komar visits the country to conduct research. He had been unable to call his family because the circuits had been tied up, he said.
"I'm sure everyone was trying to call," Komar said. "Most of the family had said they were OK so far."
But he said a lot of questions remained as far as other family and property he and his wife had there.
"We're still a little bit nervous about family we haven't heard from," Komar said. "The tremors could still cause further damage."
He said his wife had planned a trip back to El Salvador and would leave Friday. A flight scheduled earlier had been canceled because the airport was closed in the country.
"We have faith that everything will turn out OK." Komar said.

New international students consider language an obstacle
By Michelle Ward
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Huyan Ho Lee has never taken a class in English. Instead, he has taught himself the language.
Lee has spent years honing his skills, which will be tested this spring. As a new international student, the Korean freshman worries about living in an English-speaking country.
For many of the approximately 120 international students new to the University this semester, language is a concern.
"I am nervous about speaking English," he said. "I have never been in a country where people speak only English."
"Language is big for a lot of reasons," Potts said. "It helps us understand what is important in class. Language allows us to understand humor, to relate to peers and even to read a newspaper."
The importance of native language and how much people use it is often taken for granted, said Joe Potts, director of International Student Services. When students reside in a place where their language is not dominant, it is a huge transition.
The difficulty of processing a new language is not the focus of most international students. Instead, they are excited about living in a new country with unknown expectations, Potts said. They experience a honeymom phase, as most international travelers do.
Hermant Shah, a sophomore from India who had his first day of classes at the University yesterday, said he was eager for classes to begin. His excitement about his new semester outweighed any nervousness.
Shah said he couldn't wait to start working on his business degree, which is why he came to the
"Language allows us to understand humor,to relate to peers and even to read a newspaper."
Joe Potts
Director of International Student Services
University of Kansas. He had heard about the business school's good reputation.
The campus is much bigger than he expected, Shah said. He noticed differences in class size and scheduling in America as well. His classes in India were much smaller, and he attended class from 7 a.m. to noon each day. He was not able to plan out his classes.
Shah said he had confidence he would meet many new friends. He also said he found Americans to be very nice in his first few days in the country.
"People are so kind here," he said. "I really like it here. I don't miss my house at all. I don't know about the future."
The future could bring a bout of homesickness for the new international students.
In her first semester at the University, Marilyn Helvas greatly missed her family and native country. However, the Besancon, France, graduate student worked through her homesickness. She said she did it by making friends with American students.
"You can't be shy," she said. "You have to speak to American students. They will help you."

Student apprehended for public urination
A University of Kansas student was booked into the Douglas County Court at 2:08 a.m. Saturday on charges of unrinating in public and interfering with the duties of a law enforcement officer, Lawrence police said.
Sgt. Mike Patrick said officers observed a man urinating on the side of a building in the west alley in the 1000 block of Massachusetts Street. Patrick said the man also lied about his date of birth and had fake ID.
Joseph B. Zucht, Lenexa freshman,

Student charged after striking club doorman
A University of Kansas student was struck in the face at 11:12 p.m. Friday while working as a doorman at Jack Flanigans, 804 W. 24th St., Lawrence police said.
Sgt. Mike Pattrick said the doorman refused to admit an acquaintance of the suspect because the acquaintance was wearing sweat pants, which did not meet the dress code. Pattrick said the doorman was not injured.
Jeffrey Paul Lark, a 22-year-old KU student, was booked into the Douglas County Jail at 11:51 p.m. Friday on a battery charge. He was released at 7:17 p.m. Sunday on $250 bond. He is scheduled to appear in court at 3 p.m. Jan. 31.
Linwood man charged with sexual crimes
An 18-year-old Linwood resident was booked into the Douglas County Jail at 7:48 p.m. Saturday on charges of rape, indecent solicitation of a child, criminal sodomy, aggravated indecent liberties, aggravated assault and aggravated criminal sodomy, Lawrence police said.
Sgt. Mike Patrick said police were investigating the acts as consensual encounters with 13- and 14-year-old victims who were not old enough to give their consent. He did not know how police learned of the incidents.
Brett Allen Johnson remained in the Douglas County Jail yesterday. His bond was set at $100,000.
Suicide at Holidome still being investigated
Lawrence police detectives are investigating an apparent suicide after a
man's body was discovered Sunday morning at the Holiday Inn Holdome, 200 McDonald Drive, Sgt. Mike Patrick said.
Patrick said the death was not suspicious in any way other than being a suicide. Holidome management contacted the police after finding the body. Patrick did not release the man's name because forensic identification had not been made.

Ashcroft's wife admits being raped
WASHINGTON — Former Missouri senator John Ashcroft's wife, Janet, said yesterday she was once attacked by a rapist and her husband responded "exactly the way any woman would want him to respond."
The Associated Press
Mrs. Ashcroft's comments, during an interview on ABC's Good Morning America, raised more questions than answers. Ashcroft, President-elect Bush's nominee to head the Justice Department, began confirmation hearings yesterday.
Mrs. Ashcroft responded that liberal lobbying groups "have misrepresented him, because I know him and the history we have had, the circumstances I have had, where he has shown the most sensitivity and compassion when I have been in a very extreme situation that no woman wants to face."
She mentioned the attack after being asked about criticisms that Ashcroft's views were extreme, particularly in his opposition to abortions for victims of rape or incest.
time ago, and I was attacked by a rapist, and John's response to me was absolutely perfect, which amazed me."
When asked what she was referring to, Mrs. Ascbrock said: "Something that happened a long
"He has no sisters," she continued. "But his care for other people is just astounding. And his response to my situation was exactly the way any woman would want him to respond."
Despite nearly three decades in public life, the Ashcrofts had never made such an attack publicly known.
in his opening remarks yesterday, Ashcroft veered from his prepared statement with a reference to his wife, saying an attorney general must recognize "the language of justice is not the reality of justice for all Americans."
Ashcroft's staff and family referred all questions about the attack to a friend family and adviser, St. Louis attorney Charles Polk, who promised to give more details today after speaking with Mrs. Ashcroft.
Ashcroft added extemporaneously, "My wife has helped me with anecdotes from her experience to understand that there are millions of Americans who wonder if justice means hostility aimed at 'just us.'"

Commission unharnesses leash-free dog park plan
By Erin Adamson and Brooks Hester
writer@kanson.com
Kansas staff writers
Local dogs soon will be able to play leashfree in a new dog park north of the Clinton Lake spillway. The park should be completed late this spring or early summer.
City Commission
The Lawrence City Commission voted 5-0 last night in favor of allowing Lawrence Parks and Recreation to proceed with
plans to lease the 30 to 40 acres of land and to build bathrooms and parking lots at the park.
Michele Haider-Markel, Lawrence resident and dog owner, said the approval of the survey.
dog park wasn't a surprise.
"I think with all the planning and research that has gone into this park, it wasn't a shock that the commission approved it." Fauler-Markel said.
Owners must keep their dogs on leashes within city limits, even in parks and school playgrounds. The new park would provide an area for dogs to play unencumbered by leashes. Although dogs may not have to be on leashes, owners will still be required to be in control of their animals at all times.
A committee of Lawrence groups working on the dog park toured an offlea area already established in Johnson County's Shawnee Mission Park.
Commissioner Mike Rundle said he appreciated the planning involved on the part of the committee that researched and planned the proposal. He also said he
thought the park was a good idea.
"I'm convinced that there is broad community support for this." Rundle said.
However, not everyone at the meeting was convinced that the dog park was a good idea. William Dann, Lawrence resident, spoke against the proposal.
Haider-Markel, supporter of the park,
said she was happy to hear Dann's comments,
but said she still thought the dog park was a good plan.
"I'm sorry to rain on everyone's parade, but a gift of some 30 or 40 acres of public land to this group is not appropriate," Dann said.
"Everyone has their own opinions, and everyone has their rights," Haider-Markel said. "But the fact is that this is going to benefit a lot of people and their dogs."
Commissioner David Dunfield agreed and said the plan wasn't very costly.
"I think it's a modest expense," Dunfield said. "And if it's not a success, then it can always be reversed."
Fred DeVictor, Lawrence Parks and Recreation director, said the department tried to keep parks safe and convenient for the public.
"If you play some organized sports in a park and you step in dog poop, that's not pleasant." DeVictor said.
Although official rules for the park have not been determined yet, DeVictor said pet owners would need to register their dogs, keep them from fighting and clean up after them. The exact location of the park would be bordered by the road to the spillway and a natural creek line east of 902 Road.

New city buses roll through town; residents, students use service
By Erin Adamson
writer@kanson.com
Kansan staff writer
While most students were leaving for winter break, the long awaited Lawrence Transit System buses started rolling.
A citywide bus system began on Dec. 16, allowing residents to travel through the city using public transportation. Students will be able to connect with the city buses from campus. One of the city bus routes crosses campus as it travels from downtown to Iowa Street.
Mike Wildgen, Lawrence city manager,
said the city had expected the bus system to begin slowly, with about 50 riders the first day.
"We open it up at the worst possible time." Wilden said of the mid-winter start.
The number of student riders was low during the first month of the transportation system's operation because the system's beginning coincided with finals. Wildden said.
However, Wildgen said that use of the buses had been growing steadily as people became aware of the service.
Karin Rexroad, Lawrence public transit administrator, said that the latest bus survey snowed 4,726 people had ridden the route from Massachusetts Street to Wakara Drive during January.
The system began operating with city-leased buses, Rexroad said. Larger city-owned buses are expected to arrive in June.
The fare is 50 cents, except for children under age five, who ride free, and seniors and persons with disabilities or Medicare cards, who are charged 25 cents. Riders are required to provide exact change.
A bus rider also can ask the driver for a transfer, which allows the rider to transfer to any other bus within the next two hours.
The Public Transit Advisory Committee has not yet decided whether to honor the KU bus pass for students transferring from a campus bus to city bus. Rexroad said that a partnership service won't be considered for another year. Until this time, KU students will pay the regular city fare when transferring from KU on Wheels buses.
The buses run from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Friday and from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday. The buses do not run on Sunday, although Rexroad said the city would assess needs and may add Sunday routes.

High natural gas prices inflate heating bills
By Sarah Warren
By Sarah Warren
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
When Pat O'Brien opened his December gas bill, he was stunned.
"It's $360," said the Overland Park junior, who lives in a five-bedroom house. "We were expecting to pay half that much. I would much rather do other things with that money."
Larissa Long, director of community relations for Kansas Public Service/Energy One, attributed this season's price increase to years of mild winters.
TO LOWER GAS BILLS
"The use was lower in the past years because the temperature was warmer," Long said. "You compound the lack of drilling in previous years because of a low need with a cold winter and you get high bills." According to Kansas Public Service, the price of each unit of gas has risen 45 to 50 percent this winter from last year, increasing the average monthly heating bill for homes
- Lower temperature on hot water heater
- Take showers instead of baths
- Dress warmly in layers
- Check furnace filter each month to keep it running efficiently
in Lawrence by hundreds of dollars. To prevent January's bill from being sky high, Long recommended that students turn down their heaters.
Megan Spielbusch, Overland Park sophomore, received her December bill and went straight for her thermostat.
"When I got the bill, I turned down the thermostat to 70 degrees because it was at 74 degrees," Spielbusch said. "My bill was at $70 for my apartment, and usually it is $30 or $35."
Jennifer Gunby, Roeland Park junior, said that she had only elec

tric energy in her apartment and that she felt lucky not to have to pay gigantic gas bills.
"We paid about four times as much this bill because we tried to conserve with no air conditioning or heat really until December," Gunby said. "And because December was so high for our electricity, I feel awful for those who have to pay two bills that are twice as much."

Editorial board: Bush starts out on shaky ground
Cabinet choices place Bush on divisive path
Saturday, when George W. Bush takes the soath of office to become the 43rd president of the United States, American politics just like the American economy will be in danger of descending into recession.
I want to unify this sadly divided country!
And who better to unify us than John Ashcroft and a bunch of ultra-conservative cabinet appointees?!
The Two Faces of George W. Bush
Texas record displays Bush's power to unite
To maintain our nation's prosperity, Bush truly must live up to his reputation as "a uniter, not a divider." Unfortunately, it doesn't appear he'll do that.
College Republicans: Bush will be an effective president
Ideally, Bush would interpret his slim margin of victory in the Electoral College as a sign that he should build a moderate administration. Instead, he's assembled a Cabinet that leans heavily to the right; consider John Ashcroft, a radical religious conservative and Bush's nominee to be the most powerful attorney in the nation. That's about a divisive choice as any Bush could make.
Sure, Bush included a Democrat in his Cabinet, but only to lead the Department of Transportation — hardly an influential office. Even President Clinton (who handily defeated Bush's father and Sen. Bob Dole) had the wisdom to appoint a Republican as his Secretary of Defense, the one who controls the Pentagon.
For the first time since 1954. Republicans will control the White House and both houses of Congress — barely. That's hardly a mandate.
But already, this country's most powerful legislators are gearing up to pass a laundry list of conservative bills, and Bush is ready to sign them. If he wants to maintain a legitimate presidency (given that his victory arguably was illegitimate), Bush must make considerable sacrifices in his agenda. He hasn't displayed any willingness in to do that yet.
Moreover, Bush told The New York Times Thursday that he had lawyers evaluating "every single opportunity" to overturn some of Clinton's executive orders to protect 60 million acres of forests from development. This isn't the kind of meddling mentality Bush should foster. He's an elected representative of the American people, not a corporate CEO for an oil company (although his ties to the oil industry are strong).
Those aren't the only big moves Bush has hinted he'll make. During the Times interview, Bush indicated he wanted to cut off or reduce financial support for Russia and several developing third-world nations. The success of democracy in these countries hinges on
through, these volatile Clay McCuslon / KANSAN nations would be in danger of spiralling into chaos. That's global division, the threat of which is even more ominous.
Naturally, Americans want a strong leader. Bush has shown he can be forceful, but he certainly hasn't shown that he can lead or that he can effect positive change.
Saturday, Bush inherits the opportunity to renew Americans' faith in their leaders. To succeed, he needs to pursue a route drastically different from the one he's on now.
Chris Borniger for the editorial board
Can George W.
Bush govern effectively?
The answer is yes.
Now that the election is finished, it is time for the pres ident and Congress.
Congress. Republicans and Democrats to come together to pass the legislation the voters supported during the election. While some extremists would rather talk about legitimacy than focus on issues, President-elect Bush is hard at work building a coalition of Republicans and Democrats to do the work of the American people.
During the campaign, both President-elect Bush and Vice President Gore talked about improving education, mar-
about improving education, marriage- tax relief, prescription drugs
for the elderly and preserving Social Security so that today's students will be able to take advantage of the program. They differed on the details, but they both recognized that these are important issues to deal with.
Bush already has begun to lay the groundwork for progress. He has met with congressional leaders from both parties. He has talked extensively with Democrats such as Sen. John Breaux of Louisiana. Bush knows that to get things done, you must build a relationship with people, even if they don't agree with you.
Building consensus is not a new challenge for
President-elect Bush. Through personal contact and a real desire to improve the state of Texas, Bush persuaded many Democrats to work with him for the good of their constituents.
The results were impressive. Texas schools improved thanks to reforms Bush championed. It takes real effort to build coalitions and to look for ways to reach across party lines. It is more difficult to actually work with people who disagree with you than it is to hide behind rhetoric and name-calling. Bush helped change the tone in Austin, Texas, and he will do the same in Washington, D.C.
Bush understands that working with others does not mean that you have to abandon your convictions. He is still committed to providing real tax relief to all Americans, not just a select few whom liberals have deemed worthy of tax relief. Bush campaigned as a compassionate conservative, and that's how he will govern. Bush developed the skills he needs to turn his principles into law while he was governor of Texas.
During the presidential campaign, many Texas Democrats stood next to Bush and campaigned for him. It takes courage to buck your party, but those people had seen the job Bush did in Texas and knew that his desire to be "a uniter, not a divider" was real.
Unfortunately, some people do not want to see legislation passed that would foster prescription drug benefits for the elderly, tax relief or any other issues. To some, accomplishments that benefit the American people threaten their political careers. If Republicans fail, it helps Democrats. Left-wing groups, such as People for the American Way, want to see Bush fail. They are not interested in doing what is right for the American people; they're interested in seeing a Republican president fail. This is the kind of spite that sours the national dialogue and moves us away from addressing issues important to Americans.
In a divided government, there is great potential for either progress or stagnation.
Compromise is a two-way street. If other people will not work together for the American people, it would be very easy to ruin a potentially productive session of Congress. If people would rather gear up for the next campaign instead of working to help Americans, nothing will get done. And Americans will lose.

Perspective
Kansan readers must hold paper accountable
Welcome back to a new year, a new semester and a new prime time television show - Temption Island.
I was not among the 16 million people who watched Temptation Island last Wednesday. The show had a bigger audience than the debut of last summer's reality-show hit, Survivor, according to preliminary ratings. But I am not among those critics and religious leaders who would like to see the show taken off the air.
But I don't think it should be censored. A show should not be taken off the air just because it offends a segment of the population.
To be perfectly honest, while entertaining, is probably the best shows to ever come into the homes of Americans.
To be perfectly honest, Temptation Island.
So it is with The University Daily Kansan.
As a student newspaper, we're not exactly "prime time" and we're not exactly going to entertain you with scantily clad, bronzed bodies.
Leita Schultes
readers'
representative
reader@kansan.com
P. R. K.
But the connection
between Temptation Island and the Kansan is that both have the potential to offend people.
it happens despite all the efforts of reporters and editors to give you an absolutely perfect paper. It happens at the Kansan and it happens at The New York Times.
Here at the Kansan, we are going to cover some controversial topics. And we'll probably make some mistakes.
Last semester, stories on race relations, men-
sturiation and drunk driving led to heated feedback. Reporters were accused of being sex fiends, racists and Labrador-loving hippies.
But guess what? We kept running the tough stories, and we will continue running the tough stories — because those are the important ones.
When those stories show up in the paper, it's important that the Kansan knows its readers' responses, and therein is the role of the readers' representative.
This semester, Warisa Chulindra, the associate reader's representative, and I are working for you.
When the Kansan misses a story that needs to be in the paper, tell us.
When we screw up a story that makes the paper, tell us.
When you just have a question, ask us.
As journalists, we have to ask you, our reader, to have faith in us and to trust us to give you the highest quality news every day.
But we also have to ask one more favor: Hold us accountable and make us do our jobs.
Warisa and I plan to spend the semester learning about the Kansan's readers and the issues they want to read about. We will be talking to different people, going to meetings of different organizations and attending weekly office hours.
I'll be in the *Kansan* newsroom from 2:30 to 5:30 p.m. on Mondays, and Warisa will be in the newsroom from 2:30 to 5:30 p.m. on Thursdays. You can always e-mail us at readersrp@kansan.com or call us in the newsroom at 864-4810.

Letter to the editor
Kansan serves valuable purpose for all students
I am a visiting scholar to the English Department of KU. I came from the English Department of the Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications.
When I came here the first time, I spent 13 months at KU in 1988 and 1989. I read the Kansan everyday then, and I have learned a lot from reading and studying it. I came here in the middle of September 2000 the second time. I am very happy since I am able to read the Kansan everyday again. I like to read it so much for several reasons.
First, it is very informative. By reading it everyday, I know immediately not only what is going on in the KU campus, but in the state, the nation as well as in the whole world.
From the Oct. 27, 2000 Kansan, I learned that some KU students held a demonstration against Israeli occupation of the lands that Palestinians claim. I was really moved by the KU students' deep concern for world peace.
Also, from the Oct. 18, 2000, Kansan, I learned hundreds of students had backed into the Kansas Union ballroom to watch the final debate. I could sense all the students were so interested and deeply involved themselves in the presidential election.
Second, the Kansan includes diverse
opinions of the students about all kinds of big events concerned with the campus, the state and the world.
Amanda Taba's letter in the Oct. 16, 2000 Kansan, she gave her opinions about her disagreement with what the American government had done about Israel and Palestine. It is also in the Kansan that students with disabilities have told about their frustration with daily campus life. I believe it is just the different opinions that make the campus improve. I think the diversity of opinions in the Kansan is the energy that keeps it going forward.
Third, the Kansan's language is easy to understand. Whenever I finish what I have read, I know immediately what the article or the piece of the news means. I think this is the most important character for newspapers to possess. The Kansan has achieved its purposes of publication: to inform the public and to let people give their own opinions.
As an English language teacher in China, I believe I have learned more about the English language from the Kansan than any other visiting scholars with other majors. The Kansan's staff writers are energetic and have their own way of thinking, seeing things and expressing them.
Finally, I want through this article to show my sincere thanks to all the Kansan staff writers because of their diligent and hard work. I believe my year at KU is the most important part of my career.

Health Center hires new chief of staff
By Livi Regenbau
writer @kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Watkins Memorial Health Center administration is under transition after hiring a new chief of staff.
Myra Strother, physician at Watkins for the past nine years, was named new chief of staff Monday. She will supervise doctors and nurses at Watkins and help oversee changes within the business office.
Randall Rock, former chief of staff, has moved to head the healthpromotion department, which promotes public health education and resources to the community.
Strother said she hoped to keep the quality of student care high.
"I also want Watkins to follow the students mandate and stay responsive to students needs," Strother said.
Strother would like to shorten the wait time for students by introducing a nurse triage, a process allowing students to see a nurse who would assess their needs and set up an appointment with a doctor if necessary.
"I want to make sure that students always come first at Watkins." Strother said.
Rock said he set important goals
for the health-promotion department.
"I hope that health promotions can become closer aligned with academics at the University of Kansas in introducing a course for students entitled "Peer Health Advising,"" Rock said. "We hope to
Strother
Rock said the health promotion department would be an environment that
would teach and make health care skills available for students.
"We are promoting an opportunity for students to develop healthy life skills which will prevent them from getting sick in educating students how to care for themselves in a cost-effective manner," Rock sai4
Administrative changes take place at Watkins every four years to introduce new ideas and students' needs.

Candidate list to narrow in education dean search
By Andrew Davies writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
The search for a new dean in the School of Education is entering the final stages.
Susan Twombly, professor of teaching and leadership and chairwoman of a school search committee, said she expected to name up to five finalists sometime next week.
After the Equal Opportunity Office reviews and approves the list, the committee will interview each finalist individually.
"We hope to bring five people to campus sometime next week." Twombly said.
The search has been underway since last June when Karen Gallagher resigned to accept a position at the University of Southern California. Jerry Bailey has served as interim dean.
The search committee now is reviewing the 25 applications it received for the position.
Twombly said no applicant had been ruled out.
She said the school would be open-minded when looking at the applications, but favor ed someone well-rounded.
"We need someone who can continue the strong tradition of fundraising developed in the school," Twombly said. "We need a dean that can lead us in making the best use of technology, someone up to date and familiar with trends in teacher education."
Twombly said students would have a voice in the dean selection. She said a student sat on the search committee and the candidates would have open meetings with students.
Jason Wise, Hutchinson junior, listed several desired qualities for the new dean, including someone who excels in leadership, shows fairness to students and maintains high academic standards.
The School of Education wants to have a new dean in office by July 1.

Bank challenges hall lawsuit
By Cássio Furtado
writer @kanson.com
Kansan staff write
Bank of America has appealed a lawsuit filed by 13 Watkins Scholarship Hall residents to the Kansas Supreme Court.
The Douglas County District Court had ruled the residents should be the beneficiaries of the Elizabeth Miller-Watkins trust fund, which partially supports Watkins and Miller Scholarship Halls.
The Kansas Court of Appeals refused to rule on the case, and the Kansas Supreme Court has yet to determine if it will rule on the appeal.
The decision on whether to hear the case will be made on Feb. 5, the
Kansas Supreme Court clerk's office said. The clerk's office also said the court would not hear arguments on the case. If the case is taken by the court, only written arguments will be considered.
Bank of America had been responsible for managing the trust fund that Elizabeth Miller-Watkins left in her will to establish the two women's scholarship halls, built in 1926 and 1937.
The original $250,000 trust fund has grown to approximately $3 million.
Residents and alumnae have questioned the management of the fund since 1984. They have said residents should have an active voice when decisions arose on how to invest and manage the trust. The University disagreed, according to Lynn Bretz,
interim director of University Relations.
Bretz said the lawsuit was filed by a small group of students, who didn't necessarily represent the feelings of those who lived in the scholarship halls.
Bank of America lawyer Jim Rankin agreed.
"The trust has been around for very, very long," Rankin said. "This controversy didn't start until very recently."
Rankin wouldn't comment further on specific details of the case.
"The trust has been managed according to Mrs. Watkins wishes," Bretz said.
Watkins residents also refused to comment on the case.

What happened: Bank of America appealed a Douglas County Court decision that Watkins and Miller Scholarship Hall residents should be recognized as beneficiaries of the Elizabeth Miller-Watkins trust fund.
What it means: The bank is challenging the residents' request to have access to financial records of the trust fund.
What's next: The Kansas Supreme Court will decide Feb. 5 whether it will hear the appeal.
Congo president reported dead
The Associated Press
KINSHASA, Congo — President Laurent Kabila died yesterday following reports he had been shot during a coup attempt, Belgian and French foreign ministry officials said regarding an event that could throw this vast Central African country into further turmoil.
"From two sources of whom we are 100 percent certain, we can confirm that Kabila has died," said Belgian Foreign Ministry spokesman Koen Vervaeke. "He has probably been shot by one of his guards."
The Belgian officials gave no further information, and the report could not be confirmed. Belgium is Congo's former colonial ruler and retains close ties with the nation, formerly named Zaire.
French Foreign Ministry officials also said Kabila was dead, but gave no further details.
A member of Kabila's security entourage said on condition of anonymity the bodyguard had shot the president in the back and right leg. Kabila was alive and was
When asked about the report, Congolese Interior Minister Gaetan Kakudi said, "The Belgian Minister of Foreign Affairs can say what he wants, but I will make my announcement tomorrow."
being treated by doctors, he said without elaborating.
Intelligence officers in Rwanda said they had unconfirmed reports that Kabila was killed in the intense half-hour shooting yesterday afternoon at the presidential palace. Rwanda supports rebels fighting to topple the Congolese strongman.
Kabila's government would not elaborate publicly on their president's condition, or even whether he'd been shot.
"President Kabila is alive and everything is OK," said Congolese Gen. Francois Olenga.
The conflicting reports came hours after witnesses described gunfire around the home of Kabila, who has been fighting multiple rebel armies for more than two years. It was unclear who was responsible for the shooting.
A presidential helicopter landed at Kinshasa's main hospital, a government official who witnessed the event said, adding there were unconfirmed reports that the aircraft was carrying Kabila's son, Joseph Kabila, who had apparently been injured. The younger Kabila is the head of Congo's military.
Presidential aide Eddy Kapend went on national television shortly after the firefight ended to appeal
for calm, but he made no mention of the incident.
The bleary-eyed Kapend ordered all airports and borders closed, appealing to the armed forces and civil society leaders to help maintain order.
Later, Kakudji announced an 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. curfew ordered by Kabila himself. Kakudji also put all fighting units in Kinshasa on alert until further notice.
In the neighboring Republic of Congo, a senior military official said it was unclear who was in control of the Kinshasa government. The official declined to be named.
Amid the confusion of the shooting, Kinshasa residents hurried home as many streets were quickly deserted. Truckloads of armed soldiers patrolled the streets in Congo's capital city.
Large numbers of troops blocked off roads near Kabila's hilltop residence, not far from downtown Kinshasa. The presidential residence, known as the Marble Palace, is usually heavily guarded by troops and a North Korean-made tank.
stages, the rebels reached the outskirts of Kinshasa before being turned back by Kabila's army, which is now supported by Angola, Namibia and Zimbabwe.
Kabila has been fighting a civil war since August 1998, when rebel forces backed by his former allies, Rwanda and Uganda, turned against him. In the war's early
Speaking from Brussels, Kinkie Mulumba, a representative for one of the main rebel movements, insisted Kabila was dead.
"It was a palace coup. Mulumba said. "Soldiers from Kabila's escort fired at him. He took bullets directly. Immediately, the doctors took him to the main hospital, but he died."
Mulumba said the shooting proved the Congolese people wanted a change, but he denied rebels had anything to do with it.
Kabila came to power in May 1997 following a Uganda- and Rwandasponsored rebellion against former dictator Mobutu Sese Seko, who ruled the nation then called Zaire.
The world community initially welcomed Kabila, who many hoped would be a vast improvement over Mobutu's decades-long rule, which left his nation desperately broke and with an infrastructure that barely functioned.
But Kabila quickly alienated himself, inviting close friends and relatives into the government, angering investors and obstructing a United Nations investigation of reports that his rebel army had slaughtered thousands of Hutu refugees.
Feds set May date to execute McVeigh
The Associated Press
OKLAHOMA CITY — The government set a May 16 execution date yesterday for Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh, who has dropped his appeals and is apparently pinning all his hopes on winning clemency from the president.
The execution date was set by the Federal Bureau of Prisons. Representative Dan Dunne said the agency would try to meet the needs of victims' relatives and survivors, some of whom had expressed interest in watching McVeigh die by lethal injection.
McVeigh, 32, who is on death row at a federal prison in Terre Haute, Ind., has said he didn't plan any more appeals and last Thursday allowed a deadline for resuming that process to expire. However, he has reserved the right to seek executive clemency.
"That's something Mr. McVeigh has under consideration," said his attorney, Nathan Chambers.
McVeigh has 30 days to file a petition for clemency with the Justice Department, which would make a recommendation to the president.
George W. Bush, who will be inaugurated Saturday, is a firm death penalty supporter: 152 inmates were put to death during his tenure as Texas governor, and only once during nearly six years in office did he ever use his power to stop an execution.
McVeigh was convicted of murder and conspiracy for the April 19, 1995 bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building that killed 168 people and injured hundreds of others. It was the deadliest act of terrorism ever committed on U.S. soil.
Prosecutors said McVeigh, a decorated Gulf War veteran, was motivated by hatred of the U.S. government and a desire for revenge for the April 19, 1993, deaths of about 80 people in the culd disaster near Waco, Texas.
Terry Nichols was convicted separately and sentenced to life in prison.
The federal government has
not put a prisoner to death since 1963, when it executed Victor Feguer for murder and kidnapping.
There is one federal execution set before May 16 - that of David Paul Hammer, who is scheduled to die by injection on Feb. 21 for strangling his cellmate. But he is pursuing appeals.
"If there is any individual who deserves the ultimate punishment, it is Timothy McVeigh, who forfeited his life the moment he detonated that deadly cargo he had brought to downtown Oklahoma City." Gov. Frank Keating said.
But Kevin Acers, president of the Oklahoma City Chapter of Amnesty International, said: "I don't believe that granting an execution date for Timothy McVeigh in any way compensates for the tragedy of his violent act."
Betty Robins, who was working in the Murrah building at the time of the bombing, said the execution date was fine with her.
"He can be forgiven, but he must pay restitution, and his death will be that restitution," she said. "I just wish he would tell people why before he dies and what he wanted to accomplish."
Oklahoma City Attorney Karen Howick said she was pursuing an effort to get a closed circuit television hookup for families to watch the execution.
McVeigh has never publicly explained why he wanted to drop his appeals and get a prompt execution date.
McVeigh's father, retired Pendleton, N.Y., factory worker William McVeigh, has said his son explained his decision to drop appeals to the family. He told The Buffalo News: "I guess his feeling is, he knows he's going to die — it might as well be sooner than later."
Others speculated McVeigh wants to become a martyr for anti-government causes, or wants to mock the government with his petition for clemency, knowing federal authorities haven't put anyone to death in nearly 40 years.

'Hawks await 'Husker homecoming

By Chris Wristen
sports@kansan.com
Kansas writerwriter
When No. 5 Kansas makes its first home appearance in more than a month at 8 tonight against Nebraska, the Jayhawks are expecting a boost. Still, coach Roy Williams knows his team must be prepared.
His Jayhawks, 13-1 overall and 2-0 in the Big 12 Conference, are riding a six-game winning streak and just beat No. 22 Oklahoma on the road. The 'Hawks lead the nation in field-goal percentage, hitting 52 percent of their shots. They're also returning to the friendly confines of Allen Fieldhouse, a place that has seen six Kansas victories so far this season. Fans were treated to a 92-69 pounding of Tulsa the last time the Jayhawks played there.
Following Kansas' four-game road trip, Williams said his team was eager to return home. "At the same time, we'd better not feel too comfortable." Williams said. "Just because
somebody's coming into Allen Fieldhouse doesn't mean they're going to roll over and play dead for us."
Nebraska, 8-7 and 1-1, has given no indication of croaking, either. In fact, the 'Huskers just upset then-ranked Texas after losing by two at Missouri two weeks ago. They're also fourth in the nation in field goal at 51 percent. This is the Nebraska team Williams said he expected since the season began.
"With Friend and Bradford up front, their post players aren't going to have to worry about having to guard our big guys because they're just as big," Williams said.
Those big guys are senior center Kimani Friend, a pre-season All-Big 12 selection, and senior forward Steffon Bradford, the No.2 rebounder in the conference. In terms of size, they match up well with Kansas. Bradford is 6-foot-6 and Friend is 6-11.

Friend is Williams' biggest concern, literally and figuratively, but Jeff Bosche may be Nebraska's. Boschee took a step toward ending his season-long shooting slump Saturday when he hit four of eight 3-point

Nebraska will try to counter with Cookie Belcher, a senior who leads the conference in steals.
"You've got to have the shooter's mentality and keep shooting," Bosche said. "Going into the Oklahoma game it finally came true, and hopefully it will continue."

Baseball team in shape for spring practice
By Ryan Malashock
Kanson Sportswriter
The four months of weight lifting, conditioning, and practicing without a game in sight is finished for the Kansas baseball team.
With the possibility of returning to postseason action for the first time since 1996, the Kansas baseball team began spring practice on Monday.
"The best part of the offseason was that we had seven seniors who were so good in the offseason." Randall said. "They've bought into our system and led the rest of the team."
Sixth-year coach Bobby Randall said strong senior leadership was required for a team to improve drastically in the offseason.
The baseball team participated in five weeks of fall practice, which consisted of three hours of practice six days a week. Following fall practice, the team alternated between weight lifting and running four days a week and individual workouts three days a week. Randall said the unprecedented commitment shown by this year's team had paid off.
"This year we reported to practice in better shape than any other year." Randall said. "Fall practice went well, we worked hard in the weight room, and over break the players did their programs. We wanted them to be task masters and technicians in the off season, and that's what they were."
With a team consisting of seven seniors and 16 newcomers, Randall had the task of integrating an experienced nucleus with many unknown faces.
Senior shortstop John Nelson said the fourmonth off-season workouts allowed the entire team to get closer.
Randall said a key concern going into fall practice was for the team to figure out its pitching staff for the season. Senior Pete Smart is the lone starter returning from last year's squad, and senior Sam Gish and junior Dan Olson are the only returning pitchers with extensive experience out of the bullpen.
"Everybody is close and works together good," Nelson said. "We've got a lot of talent, and a lot of players stepped up in the fall. Everyone stuck to it from the first day to the last."
While the offseason didn't necessarily answer all of Randall's pitching questions, several newcomers, including junior-college transfers Justin Wilcher, Doug Lantz and Jake Wright, and freshman Matt Tribble made their presence felt. Returning pitchers senior Eric Thompson and juniors Grant Williams and Jeff Davis will also be in the mix.
Kansas' first action of the season comes on Feb. 9-11 in the Round Rock Tournament in Round Rock, Texas. With more than three weeks remaining until then, Randall said the team's off-season effort would continue to be beneficial.
"Our goal was to be in shape to play in a game on the day we reported back," Randall said. "At least 90 percent of the players were in that shape on Monday, and we'll only benefit from that."
Defense key for Jayhawks

The Kansas women's basketball team hopes to use its newfound defensive fire to corral the Oklahoma State Cowgirls tonight and scramble back into the running for the Big 12 Conference Championship.
What the Jayhawks consider to be a new season will start at 7 p.m. in Stillwater, Okla., when the Jayhawks (7-7, 1-2) saddle up against the Oklahoma State Cowgirls (8-7, 0-4) in their fourth conference game of the season.
Kansas' victory Saturday against Kansas State — one that halted a fourgame losing streak — restored confidence to a team that started the season 6-2 but faltered in recent weeks.
"It's always nice to have a day off where you don't have to think about how bad you played all day," senior guard Jennifer Jackson said. "Honestly, we have a really good chance of winning this conference still. We're really going to have to take care of the rest of our games, and to do that you have to take it one game at a time."

Before the Hawks think ahead to March, they have to focus on the task at hand. To break the Cowgirls, the Jayhawks will need to maintain the aggressiveness and defensive intensity they showed against the Wildcats — a defensive attack that forced 29 turnovers and took the Wildcats out of the game.
"I think we're going to have to play the same kind of up-in-your-face kind of defense that we played against Kansas State," Jackson said. "I think that's going to be the key to the rest of our victories."
But unlike the Wildcats, the Cowgirls have no players posing serious offensive threats. Junior forward Kara Faulk leads the team in scoring, averaging 9.5 points per game with 7.6 rebounds. Oklahoma State has no scors averaging double-digits, but there are seven Cowgirls averaging seven or more points per game.
"We're constantly working on it," Washington said. "Every single day we're trying to get better. When you have Hac on the bench and Brooke in foul trouble, we have a lot off the floor."
Kansas coach Marian Washington said defense was a concern because seniors Jaclyn Johnson and Brooke Reves had found foul trouble in big games this season.
With the Cowgirls on a three-game losing steak, the Jayhawks must capitalize on the slump. Johnson said she saw this game as a chance for Kansas to move ahead of Texas A&M (11-4, 1-3) in the conference standings.
"I think that we should definitely win this game, but it's all on us," Johnson said. "If we come out and play like we did against Baylor, we're going to lose, but if we come out and play we did
Saturday night we're definitely going to win."
Washington said to be successful in the 13 remaining conference games, players would have to step up and do what they were supposed to do to bring the team together.
"When we get on the same page," Washington said. "I think we can play with most any team."

Super Bowl quarterbacks lack savvy
Several things have become synonymous with the kind of football that's played every January in the NFL.
You can always count on big plays, exciting finishes and the best QBs in pro football leading their teams on championship runs.
The past decade has spoiled us with Super Bowl matchups that included some of the greatest QBs of all time. The title games of the 1990s featured names such as Montana, Elway, Aikman, Kelly, Young and Favre (all of whom will be making trips to Canton for the Hall of Fame).
Second tier studs Bledsee, Warner and McNair also made trips to pro football's main event in the 90s, making just about every matchup an exciting exhibition with big-name talent. Having a blue chip signal caller is certainly not a prerequisite for a Super Bowl berth these days (see Stan Humphries and Neil O'Donnell), but it has become a bit of a recent trend.
Although great football minds have always preached that defense wins championships, other gridiron gurus will tell you a great leader is needed offensively to take home the hardware. No matter what the level of play, the quarterback has always been the key position in football.
Teams led by run-of-the-mill quarterbacks were rarely found still playing in January. Big games have always called for big names at the quarterback spot, until this year.
Super Bowl XXXV will have no "Namath vs. Unitas" or "Montana vs. Elway" attraction. This year millions of football fans across the globe will get to see a bout more to the tune of Beavis vs. Butthead.
That might be a little harsh, but the Dilfer vs. Collins battle definitely lacks some luster. Although both QBs might someday find their way to Cleveland, Ohio, any trips to Canton seem out of the question. Both players are still young but have already received bad raps around the league.
Trent Dilfer is known more for his skill on the links than for his prowess on the football field. He made more birds last month than he did touchdowns in six years as a Buccaneer.
In Carolina, Collins got labeled a racist and his teammates felt he gave up on them. To top it off, the one-time ProBowler was arrested for drunk driving and later waived by the franchise that spent their first-ever draft pick on him.
But then the sad songs of our protagonists began to brighten up a bit. After a stint with the Saints and ten games as a backup in the Big Apple, Kerry Collins got the nod as the Giants main man. Trent Dilfer traded in his set of golf clubs for a roster spot in Baltimore and as soon as Tony Banks was diagnosed with the turnover bug, the starting job was his.
Both players' careers were left for dead after striking out big time with their original teams. It looked as if the only quarterbacking these two would do in the Januarys of the future would be from armchairs. They had more career interceptions than they had friends and there was very little hope that either would ever reach a Super Bowl.
Both players were back in the driver's seat and this time their stories would be different. Not only had their attitudes changed but their supporting casts had greatly improved as well. The weight of their teams' futures no longer fell squarely on their shoulders.
Instead of being forced to make the big play, Dilfer and Collins were just told to guard against giving up the big play. Both have had help in the backfield, some quality receiving targets and most of all, two world-class defenses to shoulder the load.
The rest is history. Dilfer has been steady as the Ravens starter and Collins is finally starting to realize the potential he once showed at Penn State.
Although neither quarterback is Hall of Fame material, both are still playing football in January, and this time it's not on a Playstation.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Jan. 17). You and your team are unbeatable this year because you seem to have superhuman powers. You're the energizer and a friend's strategist in January. Don't let anybody else hold the purse strings in February. Follow a hunch quickly in March, and solve a big problem. By May you should have a simple routine. Empower another and you'll both win in July. Save some of September for quiet contemplation in a beautiful setting. Climb mountains in November. December could be costly if you're not careful. Turn down an option with additional expenses.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 4.
Is somebody trying to get you upset in order to gain an advantage? If so, stall. Your luck, power and influence will improve during the next few days, getting much better by next week.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is an 8.
You and your partner need to have a meeting. You should be planning a trip — one that's deductible. Tomorrow will be good for traveling
Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is a 5.
Something you say in jest could be used against you. Scheming is happening behind the scenes, but don't be paranoid. Keep quiet, especially if you don't know who's on which side yet.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is an 8.
Love could blossom for you, so set up an opportunity. If you've been waiting for the other person to call, don't. He or she may be too shy. If you get rejected, you didn't ask the right question of the right person.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 5.
Your partner is good at figuring things out, but today he or she seems to be running into a brick wall. Offer a shoulder to cry on.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 9.
Romance is in the air, so make time for it. Have a secret mid-day rendezvous. Anybody who thinks Virgos aren't passionate people doesn't know any very well. They're selective, that's all.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Today is a 5.
An argument could break out involving your living arrangements and money. You'd like to do what the other person wants, but you can't afford it. You can work out a compromise, but don't give away the store.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 9.
You're probably getting offers from people you never noticed before. Don't get into any trouble just to show off. Remember, you're even more enticing if you play hard-to-get.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 4.
It's not easy to achieve what you have in mind, but that's your own fault. You're the one who picked the lofty goal. You wanted a challenge, remember? Time to hit the books!
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is an 8.

Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
Schottenheimer added two familiar faces to his staff yesterday, hiring Jimmy Raye as offensive coordinator and Richard Mann as receivers coach.
Raye spent the last nine seasons with the Kansas City Chiefs, seven on Schottenheimer's

This will be Raye's fifth offensive coordinator job in the NFL, having held the position with New England in 1990, Tampa Bay in 1985-86 and St. Louis in 1984. He has also worked for San Francisco, Detroit and Atlanta during his 24-year pro coaching career.
Schottenheimer also has hired Mann before — with the Cleveland Browns in 1985. Mann has also coached with the Cofs in Baltimore and Indianapolis, the New York Jets and Baltimore Ravens.

Rowers spend break at Texas in successful training session
By Jay Mullinix
By Jay Mullinix sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
As many students spent the end of their winter breaks relaxing and enjoying a little less stress, the women's rowing team was doing its part to keep business rolling for the Band-Aid company.
Break came to a quick halt on Jan. 3 for the 40 varsity rowers as they headed to Austin, Texas and the University of Texas boat house to have their annual winter training session, which lasted through Saturday.
For the rowers, it was a period of intense and physically exhausting training in which the brunt of the work was spent on perfecting technique for the upcoming spring season. Two-a-day practices were held, with each morning beginning with rowing anywhere between 15 and 21 miles.
“It's an intense time,” said Rob Catloth, Kansas rowing
Rowing
coach. "We eat, sleep and row, and that's pretty much all that we do."
Such a heavy workload takes quite a toll and ensures a plentiful supply of bandages is a top priority.
"It's real tough. You should have seen our hands," said Heather Muir, Eden Prairie, Minn., senior. "We'd go through four or five boxes of Band-Aids every day because of all the work."
From his vantage point,
Catloth said the winter
training period was one of
the best the team has had.
"I was very pleased with how it went," he said.
Muir added if the past was any indicator, this spring could turn out to be quite a season for the Jayhawks.
"Winter training has
seemed to be a good predictor of how the season will go, and we were very good, so I'm pretty excited about the spring," she said.
Winter training was part of year-long competition for Kansas. The fall season includes regattas, which span roughly three miles under bridges and around curves. The spring season includes 2,000 meter sprint races and the NCAA Championships.
In the meantime, the team had a little time to let its hands heal before starting off-season conditioning and weight lifting today. Full-time practice will then follow on Jan. 29.
Competition begins Feb. 24 with the Indoor Ergometer Race in Anschutz Sports Pavilion. The outdoor season starts on March 24 as the Jayhawks head back to Austin to take on Texas.

Big 12 Basketball Huskers' Ffriend a formidable foe
Cowgirls in must-win situation

Coaches often shy away from labeling games a 'must-win,' but Halterman doesn't downplay the importance of tonight's game. With the daunted task of facing Texas Tech on Sunday, Halterman knows his team needs a win to boost morale.
By Brandon Stinnett sports @kansasan.com kansasan sportwrite
Kansas is 7-7 overall and 1-2 in the Big 12. The team is coming off perhaps its most complete performance of the season in a 78-67 victory against Kansas State. The Jayhawks shot 57.6 percent from the field and forced 29 Wildcat turnovers.
Senior guard Jennifer Jackson and senior forward Brooke Reves combined for 44 points in the game. Revs was nearly automatic from the field, knocking down 10-of-15 shots, and Jackson's 23 points was a new career-high.

Times are tough for the Oklahoma State women's basketball team. The Cowgirls are in the midst of a fourgame losing streak, and, at 0-4, sit last in the Big 12 Conference standings.
But a home victory tonight against Kansas would make things a lot easier on Oklahoma State heading into its match-up with No. 9 Texas Tech on Sunday.
In order for the Cowgirls to beat the Jayhawks, Oklahoma State coach Dick Halterman said they would have to start hitting shots. In four conference games this season, Oklahoma State is shooting just 35.6 percent.
"We're struggling a lot." Halterman said. "We feel like we're a decent basketball team, but we can't score any points."

Wwhere wwould Nnebraska bbe wvwithout Kimani Friend?
Aside from having arguably the coolest name in the Big 12 Conference, the senior center is also a key component in one of the strongest frontcourts in the conference. Ffriend and the rest of the Nebraska front-court will present Kansas a tough task when both teams face-off at 8 p.m. tonight in Allen Fieldhouse.
Friend leads the nation in shooting percentage at 70.2 percent, thanks in part to a five-for-six performance against Texas on Saturday. His 18 points and 10 rebounds helped Nebraska to its biggest victory of the season, an 80-67 shelling of the Longhorns. It also helped to solidify his position as a preseason first-train All-Big 12 selection.
"He's got a bad combination for the opposing coaches in that he's got very good size and athleticism," said Kansas coach Roy Williams.
Ffriend is not the typical big man, in that he doesn't only hang out on the blocks, said Williams. He said Ffriend had the ability to step outside and use that quickness to get open looks at the basket.
He has scored in double figures in 12 of 14 games, but the 'Huskers are just 8-7 on the season.
Williams knows despite Nebraska's up-and-down play, the "Huskers will come in ready to play. Nebraska has played well on the road, narrowly losing to both Minnesota and Missouri in overtime.
"We've shown the ability to play well in stretches," said Nebraska coach Barry Collier.
Collier also said he hoped the 'Huskers would play well enough in all situations to give themselves a chance to win.
While the match-up of the Kansas front-court against Friend and senior forward Steffon Bradford will be important, the Jayhawks will need to be able to control senior guard Cookie Belcher if they want to win at home.

Texas coach finds milestone in 1,000th game
The Associated Press
AUSTIN, Texas — About the only thing in women's basketball that hasn't changed much during the last 32 years is Texas coach Jody Conradt.
Since coaching her first game in 1989, Conradt has seen the sport evolve into a business and a thriving element of big-time college athletics. Along the way, she's won a national championship, a record 760 games and earned induction into the Basketball Hall of Fame.
Tenight, Conradt will mark another major milestone when she will become the first women's coach to work 1,000 games when the No. 17 Longhorns play at Kansas State.
"Everything outside the court has changed,"said 59-year-old Conradt. "There are people in the seats, (reporters) are here, the attention that women's sports has now. And the credibility that it has now, all of that has changed."
Only 20 men's coaches have reached the 1,000-game mark. The active ones are St. Mary's Jim Phelan, Georgia State's Lefty Driesell and New Mexico State's Lou Henson.
Conradt began coaching in 1969 at Sam Houston State, but she actually wasn't hired to be a basketball coach. She was a physical education teacher who coached the team for free. At the time, coaching the college game was considered a step down from high school, where the coaches got paid for their services, Conradt said.
But the free labor paid off. Within four years, she had become the coach at University of Texas-Arlington. In 1977, the Longhorns came calling.
In 25 seasons in Austin, Conradt's teams have reached postseason play 22 times. In 1986, the Longhorns became the first undefeated national champions in women's history, going 32-0.
In 1997, she became the first women's coach to reach 700 victories. The next year, she was inducted into the Naimish Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame and the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame.
"She's seen it all, done it all and she's won everything," said Texas assistant coach Kathy Harston.
thing," said Texas assistant coach Kathy Harston. Conradt said the 1,000-game milestone is special, but she didn't plan to commemorate it. She joked she would be looking over her shoulder in case anyone tried to douse her with a bucket of water.
Conradt said she had no plans to retire.
"I'm having a really good time," she said. "I'm still very passionate about what I do."

'Hawks draw strong recruiting class
By Jeff Denton
sports @kansons.com
Kansons sportswriter
Bv Jeff Denton
Just two months after the completion of a disappointing 4-7 football season, recruiting analysts predict the Jayhawks will have plenty to smile about as next month's official college football signing day approaches.
Even though the Jayhawks' end-of-the-season performance was anemic (they were outscored by a combined 101 points in their last four consecutive fall defeats), they have put together an accomplished 2091 recruiting class.
Recruiting expert Jon Kirby, who heads MOKAN Football.com, said last season's Kansas
KAN Football.com, said last recruiting class was one of the school's best in the past 15 years. This year's expectant class, according to Kirby and other recruiting gurus, has an opportunity to be just as acclaimed.
SUNYIT
The Jayhawks have verbal commitments from 16 players from both the high school and junior-college levels. Of the commitments, only high school defensive players Greg Heagans and Derrick Ming are not fully set on Kansas, leaving the door open to play at other schools by giving Kansas a 'soft commitment.'
Some of the players with solid commitments:
- John Beck, placekicker.
Hiper High School
Kansas City, Kan.
John Beck, placekic
The favorite to replace senior Joe Garcia, Beck will arrive in Lawrence the state's all-time high school field-goal leader. His leg left many of his kickoffs unretired. Beck's accuracy from long range was strong — he hit 10-of-12 field goals outside of 50 yards. Beck's leg is one of the strongest to come out of the Missouri-Kansas region, according to Kirby. Beck chose Kansas instead of Colorado, Colorado State and Missouri.
BeaShuway Suivy, linebarker
DeShawn Spivey, linebacker
Kansas City. Kan.
Blessed with both tremendous size and athleticism, Spivey chose Kansas instead of other more formidable football suitors because he feels most comfortable in Lawrence, according to MO-KAN Football.com. Spivey anchored his high school's 4x100 relay team at last year's state track meet. The 225 pound linebacker ran the 40 yard dash in 4.6 seconds. Spivey's talents sparked interest from both Nebraska and Kansas State.
Anthony Brown, linebacker,
Grandview High Grandview, Mo.
Grandview High School,
Although slight in build when compared to Spivey, Brown is faster (4.53) and possesses an instinct for making big plays. Brown forced seven fumbles in his junior season. He chose Kansas instead of Georgia Tech and Missouri.
Johnnie Watkins, cornerback,
Kirkwood, Mo.
Kirkwood High School,
Before leaving for Oklahoma State, Kansas assistant coach Darrell Wyatt was a big reason why Watkins chose Kansas. According to a report by Jeremy Crabtree of Rivalls100.com, Watkins enjoyed the camaraderie among Kansas players and coaches, most notably during his November visit. Watkins, who is 5 foot-10 and runs a 4.4 in the 40 yard dash, is also a hurdler on Kirkwood's track team. He picked Kansas instead of three Big Ten Conference programs — Wisconsin, Iowa and Illinois.
These players' commitments, along with the other Kansas commitments, are currently nonbinding. The official signing day is Feb. 2.

Merit scholar enrollment up
By Cassio Furtado
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
The University of Kansas rose from ninth to eighth place among public universities in enrolling National Merit Scholars.
The ranking, which was made available to the University two weeks ago, is based on this year's fall enrollment, when the University enrolled 116 incoming merit scholars. This year's total surpasses the 101 incoming merit scholars who enrolled during the 1999-2000 academic year.
"This ranking strongly demonstrates the strength of the University and how much it offers to students from Kansas and across the country," Chancellor Robert
Hemenway said in a prepared statement.
The University has enrolled more merit scholars than all other public universities in Kansas, Missouri and Nebraska combined. It also had the largest increase in merit scholar enrollment of all Midwestern universities.
Kathleen-McCluskey Fawcett, associate provost, said the ranking gave the University nationwide recognition.
"We are attracting the best students in Kansas and around the country," she said.
Alan Cerveny, director of admissions, said the rankings would have a positive effect on recruiting.
"This is evidence that merit scholars are choosing KU over other universities," he said.
Cerveny also emphasized that although
schools like the University of California at Berkeley and the University of Texas at Austin had the top two rankings, California and Texas had more merit scholars because they had a larger population.
This year, Kansas had 166 students designated as merit scholars, but some states had as many as 1,600 designated merit scholars, he said.
Fewer than 10,000 students, or 1 percent of graduating high school seniors, receive the designation nationwide out of the 1.2 million who compete annually.
Merit scholars are selected based on their PSAT scores, academic record, extracurricular activities, recommendations and essays.
A total of 3.496 merit scholars are

Company plans to offer phone, cable, Internet
By Erin Adamson
writer @kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
If all goes according to plan, students will have a new telecommunications service at the end of the summer.
At Tuesday night's City Commission meeting, commissioners voted to draft a franchise agreement which would bring WorldNet LLC one step closer to completing its project that uses fiber-optic cables from Sunflower Cablevision to provide phone, cable and Internet services. WorldNet LLC is primarily owned by The World Company, which publishes The Laurence Journal-World.
Patrick Knorr, general manager of Sunflower Cablevision, said he hoped that the service would begin for some customers in late summer.
"We still have a lot of regulation hurdles to jump through," he said.
One remaining obstacle is a partnership with Southwestern Bell, which provides telephone service in Lawrence.
Knorr said opposed to a regular phone line, the broadband service that WorldNet would provide would be a high capacity cable line that would allow simultaneous TV, voice and Internet communication. He said Sunflower Cablevision would offer services similar to Southwestern Bell, such as three-way calls, caller ID and voice mail. He said the company would offer those services at a discounted rate.
NEW DEAL
What happened: The Lawrence City Commission drafted an agreement to allow WorldNet LLC to deliver telephone, Internet and cable television service through Sunflower Cablevision fiber-optic lines.
What it means: The deal could allow students living off-campus to receive all three services through one high-bandwidth connection and pay for them with one bill. The monthly charge for service has not yet been announced.
What's next:
WorldNet hopes to begin service this summer.
Anne-Wesley
Roberts, Washington, D.C. senior, said the service would be an improvement on current phone service in Lawrence.
"I would be interested in this kind of service," she said. "You could be talking on the phone, checking your e-mail and watching TV all at the same time."
Courtney Crouch, Wichita junior, said she thought the service would be especially important to students.
"I would definitely be interested," she said.
"My roommates and I always have to use the Internet when someone is using the phone."
"It's very difficult living with lots of people who all use the phone," she said. "It's hard for students who need the phone or the Internet to do homework."
Roberts agreed that living with roommates is hard with only one phone line.
One advantage to the customer, Knorr sald, would be that bills for cable, phone and Internet service could be bundled into one.
He also said that WorldNet still needed to make some minor upgrades to its system, which it planned to have completed in the next 60 days.
Sunflower Cablevision added fiber-optic lines in 1999, and in 2000 completely overhauled it's cable system to provide this service, Knorr said.
Abandoned house burns

FIREFIGHTER USED HYDRAULIC HOSE TO EXTEND FIRE LENGTH ON THE WOODEN BUILDING.
Mattresses, stored items smolder, keep fire ablaze
Firefighters responded to a 911 call made by a neighbor who saw smoke billowing out of a crawl space beneath the house and the back of the house, located at 1030 New York St.
A fire broke out in an abandoned two-story house yesterday and caused major damage to the interior of the house, fire officials said.
Fire Chief Jerry Clark said the house was filled from floor to ceiling
with old furniture, magazines and other storage items. At least seven mattresses were piled up in front of an upstairs front window, partially blocking the window.
Clark said the items stored in the house smoldered and made it difficult for the firefighters to control the fire. Firefighters had to cut ventilation holes in the roof to get to the fire on the second floor.
Clark confirmed that the house
was vacant.
Neighbor Kim Hatch watched the billowing smoke and flames from across the street.
"I've lived here for five years and I've never seen anybody go in," she said.
Damages were estimated at $50,000:
No firefighters were injured.

Study abroad director fired unexpectedly
By Michelle Ward
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Margareta O'Connell is reeling from the past week's events, which culminated in the loss of her job.
The University of Kansas study abroad director returned from a trip to Cuba, where she was coordinating a new program, and found that her department was no longer hers.
O'Connell was told of a rebuilding process in study abroad — one that she would not be part of.
"They told me they were reorganizing," she said. "There would be no room for me. I was told. When things like this happen, it always takes a while to sink in."
Diana Carlin, dean of international programs, publicly announced the removal of O'Connell on Tuesday. She declined to comment on the specifics, citing that it was a personnel issue. She offered O'Connell an assistant-to-the-dean position in the Office of International Programs.
Susan Gronbeck-Tedesco will become the interim director of study abroad after serving as the assistant to the provost since 1996.
Maureen Gillespie, an assistant professor of French, worked with O'Connell during the last few years. The women planned two overseas trips that Gillespie directed. She said she was surprised by the news of O'Connell's dismissal.
"She has had six years of experience in the Office of International Programs," Carlin said of Gronbeck-Tedesco. "She has worked in a variety of positions at the University. She knows how the University operates and the faculty. A lot of her organizational skills will be important in developing new programs and expanding on existing ones."
"I am very sorry to hear the news," Gillespie said. "I thought she actively encouraged both students and faculty to travel abroad. I felt the visibility of the programs increased under her tenure."
O'Connell led the study abroad program for more than four years. During her tenure, she helped create the program's Web site along with a database cataloging the last four decades of KU students who travelled internationally. Her office added at least 20 more short-term programs during summers and winters and an additional 20 full-length exchange programs.
"I know what I have accomplished at that office," she said. "I am very proud of the quality and well-roundness of the program. I am leaving with my head held high and with my dignity."
Nick Crews, Tulsa senior, first traveled to Scotland through study abroad and then came back to work in the office. He wanted to help other students achieve the same experience he had through the program.
He said that he didn't know much about the situation but that O'Connell's departure was unexpected.
"I thought she was a nice lady," he said. "I thought she did a good job of helping people that didn't have a large student network supporting them. The people that only had one or two people traveling with them."
O'Connell isn't sure what the future has in store for her. She said she didn't know whether she would accept the job in the Office of International Programs or begin looking for something else.
"Whenever one door closes, another one opens," she said. "I am staying optimistic."

Explosion emblazons downtown Hutchinson
HUTCHINSON — An explosion of undetermined origin rocked downtown Hutchinson yesterday, forcing the evacuation of a one-block area as firefighters battled blazes at two businesses.
Two customers had minor injuries, but the six employees working in the two stores were unhurt. The injured couple — Dennis Lyon and his fiance, Stacy Smith — had been in a party supply store looking at items for their wedding.
Power was out to much of the downtown area, including the Reno County courthouse, which sent employees home early.
The blast at 10:45 a.m, shattered windows within two blocks. Decor Wedding and Party Supply and Woody's Furniture and Appliance were engulfed in flames — sending a huge column of smoke above downtown. The businesses were located on First Street, a block west of Main Street.
At one point, firefighters were forced to leave the burning party supply building until a helium tank used to fill balloons exploded.

Highway patrolman found shot near Wichita
WICHITA — A Kansas Highway Patrol trooper found shot in his patrol car at a community college was in critical but stable condition yesterday. The trooper
was still unable to talk to investigators.
Doctors at Wesley Medical Center in Wichita told the Kansas Highway Patrol they wanted to keep 2nd Lt. Tom Quinn in an induced sedated state for seven more days, said 2nd Lt. John Fickhorn.
"That will prevent us from talking to him." Eichorn said.
Quinn, 42, was found shot twice in the neck shortly after 7 p.m. Monday, sitting in his marked car in a parking lot on the Pratt County Community College campus.
Quinn was wearing a bulletproof vest at the time of the shooting.
Authorities said they were unsure about what happened that night and wanted to talk to Quinn before coming to any conclusions, Eichorn said. Investigators for the Kansas Bureau of Investigation are looking at all scenarios, including a possible suicide attempt.
"We are just wanting to talk to him, and I hope that is eventually a possibility." Eichkorn said.
Quinn, a 17-year veteran of the highway patrol, was stationed out of the patrol's Great Bend office.

Student shot outside Baltimore high school
BALTIMORE — A student was killed after being shot three times outside a city high school yesterday in what police said was a premeditated attack.
Two students from another city school were detained for questioning shortly after the 8:45 a.m. shooting on the grounds of Lake Clifton-Eastern High School, police said. No charges had been filed by last night.
Juan Matthews, 17, was shot with a small-caliber pistol while standing near a flagpole in front of the school's main entrance, police commissioner Edward Norris said.
Witnesses said one suspect fled into a wooded area surrounding the school and jumped into a car waiting on the other side. The car was pulled over by police a few blocks away.
"All I can imagine is that this is something that came from the community and spilled over onto school grounds," said area schools superintendent Barry Williams.
Matthews died yesterday after undergoing surgery at the Johns Hopkins Hospital, spokeswoman Beth Simpkins said.
Factory output shows economic slowdown
WASHINGTON — Output at U.S. factories plunged in December by the largest amount since the last recession, offering dramatic new evidence yesterday of the abrupt economic slow
down that has occurred during the past few months.
Consumer inflation, however, was moderate in December, helped by a big drop in gasoline prices. Economists said that would give the Federal Reserve room to cut interest rates further to revive the faltering economy.
Factory production fell by 1.1 percent in December, the biggest one-month drop since March 1991 when the last recession was ending.
Overall, industrial output, including manufacturing, mining and utilities, was down 0.6 percent, the third consecutive monthly decline, the first time that has occurred since 1991.
"The nation's industrial heartland is in trouble," said Joel Naroff, head of a Holland, Pa., forecasting firm. "If it weren't for the cold weather and a sharp rise in utility output, the industrial production report would have been even more of a disaster."
WASHINGTON — Secretary of State nominee Colin Powell pledged at his Senate confirmation hearing yesterday the Bush administration stood ready to help "every country that has a desire to be free."
Bush nominee Powell expects easy approval
Introduced by Sen. John Warner, R-Va., as a "a model model for generations of Americans," Powell faced easy approval to become America's first black secretary of state.
Powell called his appointment miraculous and said it "would have been unthinkable" when he first joined the Army 35 years ago.
Powell struck a cautious stance on the U.S. peacekeeping operations in the Balkans, saying the vulnerability of troops must be considered when they were deployed, whether for peace operations or potential conflict.

Columbian gunmen massacre 25 villagers
BOGOTA, Colombia — Suspected right-wing paramilitary gunmen with machetes hacked to death 25 men in northern Colombia yesterday before burning dozens of homes to the ground, police said.
Survivors told police that about 50 heavily armed men dressed in military uniforms converged on the town of Chengue at about 3 a.m. yesterday and rounded up 25 villagers they accused of working with leftist guerrillas, Sucre state police Lt. Alexander Collazos told the Associated Press.
The victims, all men between the ages of 22 and 65, were removed one by one from their homes, surrounded and killed with machete blows to the head and neck.

Approval of Ashcroft likely
WASHINGTON — John Ashcroft pledged yesterday that as President-elect Bush's attorney general he would not challenge Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 decision that legalized a woman's right to an abortion, before the Supreme Court.
The Associated Press
Ashcroft, a firm opponent of abortion who once labeled Roe "a miserable failure," told senators at his confirmation hearing yesterday: "The Supreme Court very clearly doesn't want to deal with that issue again."
Ashcroft also said he would defend the constitutionality of gun restrictions he opposed as a senator after Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., asked him why he worked to defeat her proposals to make gun crimes subject to racketeering laws.
"I don't believe the Second Amendment to be one that forbids any regulation of guns," Asherfoot said. "There are a number of enactments I would not prefer as policy but which I believe would be constitutional."
Democrats also chastised Ashcroft for his conservative rhetoric in 1998 when he unsuccessfully sought to build his support among social and religious conservatives into a bid for the Republican Party presidential nomination.
"I expect our party generally to state pretty strong conservative views, and start negotiating with the idea that by the time you finish, we're going to have...something people can generally support," he said.
While questioning Ashcroft about his past rhetoric, Democrats conceded they expected him to win Senate approval.
"You are likely to be confirmed, as we all know." Sen. Herb Kohl, D-Wis, said as the Senate Judiciary Committee held its second day of hearings on the nomination.
Nonetheless, Democrats scheduled at least a half-dozen opponents of Ashcroft to testify later.
Ashcroft's personal convictions as a devoutly religious, conservative Republican have triggered opposition from civil rights and women's groups not witnessed since Justice Clarence Thomas' nomination to the Supreme Court a decade ago.
The hearings are expected to continue through today and could even be carried into next week after Bush's inauguration Saturday. Senate GOP leader Trent Lott has predicted all 50 Senate Republicans would vote for Ashcroft. So far, Sen. Barbara Boxer of California is the only Democrat who has said firmly she would vote against him.

Charges altered in assault case
By Lauren Brandenburg
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A 30-year-old Lawrence man accused of attacking and trying to rape two female University of Kansas students in 1999 is being evaluated at Larned State Security Hospital before his sentencing.
"I think in my case — I wasn't raped — this was the next best thing we could have gotten," she said.
Shipp was accused of entering an apartment Dec. 1, 1999 and attempting to rape a 21-year-old University student. The woman, who said the attacker was wearing a clown disguise including goggles covering his eyes, struggled with him and eventually convinced him to leave.
In the other incident, Shipp was accused of entering another apartment in the same complex June 22, 1999. jumping on top of a female University student in bed and holding her wrists before saying he was in the wrong apartment and leaving.
The penalties for the crimes will be from state sentencing guidelines taking into account any criminal history Shipp has as well as the severity of the crimes, said Dave Zabel, assistant district attorney for Douglas County. Judge Jack Murphy is awaiting information on Shipp's criminal history.
Edward. A. Ship pleaded guilty Dec. 15, 2000 to charges of aggravated battery and attempted aggravated sexual battery. He was originally charged with two counts each of attempted rape and aggravated burglary.
Shipp's sentencing is scheduled for 9 a.m. April 16 to allow time for his mental examination and evaluation at the state security hospital. Larned will have four months to evaluate whether Shipp suffers from mental illness, which experts have said he does, and if he can be treated. Zabel said Shipp could face time in prison, on probation or serve his sentence at Larned.
Subleasing apartments not always an easy task
"If the report says he needs treatment, and we think it will, the judge would order him to stay there," Zabel said. Shipp was evaluated at Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center last year and found not mentally competent to stand trial because he would not be able to assist his attorney in his case, Zabel said. He was then evaluated for 90 days at Larned where he was found to be competent, allowing the case to begin.
One of the victims, now a senior, said she was satisfied with these results.

Going home for the summer cost more than Caroline Riordan expected.
When Riordan, a Rivervale, N.J., senior, tried to break her one-year lease with Jefferson Commons last summer, she was faced with the responsibility of having to find someone to sublease her apartment.
"There was no fee I could just pay and get out." Riordan said. "I ended up paying rent for space I was not taking up."
"Our residents do not exactly have a break-lease option," said Kristin Hulver, leasing manager for Jefferson Commons, 2511 W. 31st. "If they want to leave, they have to assign their lease to someone else. Usually, they have to find that person themselves."
Graduating, transferring, leaving for the summer or even dropping out of school are some of the reasons students may need to break their leases. On the other end of the spectrum, apartment complexes try to guard their interests by instituting strict policies about tenants breaking leases.
Connie Gore, an employee at Malls Olde English Village,
2411 Louisiana, said tenants who wanted to get out of their
hands had to pay a $100 fee and find a replacement tenant
It's becoming more and more of a policy. Other apartment complexes have similar policies. Employees of both West Hill Apartments, 1012 Emery
Road, and Colony Woods Apartments, 1301 W. 24th, said in both complexes residents were required to pay a fee and find someone to sublease.
While some students find replacements easily, others said the quest for someone reliable to sublease could be a nightmare. And sometimes, the nightmare does not end when a sub-lease is found.
Chan Kang, Chicago senior, said he was relieved and excited when he found someone to take his place for the summer in his apartment at Campus Place, 1145 Louisiana St.
But he said letting the new tenant loose in the apartment ended up costing Kang and his roommates a serious amount of money.
"He completely ripped the place apart in two weeks." Kang said. "My roommates and I had to pay for repairs."
Jo Hardesty, Director of Legal Services for Students, said the ideal solution for students wanting to get out of their apartments is to have the new tenant sign a contract instead of subletting.
"In that way, they're not responsible for the apartment any more," she said.
Hardesty said students should make sure they knew exactly what their contract said before they signed.
"A contract is legally binding, and you can't just get out of it," Hardesty said. "You have to work with what your contract says."

Vitamins can be harmful
Excessive use may have toxic, damaging effects
By Livi Regenbaum writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Students looking to boost their immune systems often turn to vitamins. But according to Randall Rock, physician at Watkins Memorial Health Center, vitamins can be used improperly.
"Vitamins can be harmful to your health if used excessively," Rock said. "Too much vitamin intake can have toxic effects."
Ashley Wann, Lindsborg Junior, said she did not feel the need to take vitamins.
"I try to eat a variety of foods so that I get the vitamins I need from natural resources instead of vitamin supplements," Wann said. "I've found that too much vitamin intake can hurt you."
Rock advised students who are
taking vitamins to take a multivitamin supplement containing no more than 100 percent of the recommended dietary allowances every other day.
"Vitamins are necessary, but to rely on them alone without a nutritional, balanced diet is not healthy." Rock said.
Anne Chapman, nutrition coordinator at Watkins, said a daily supplement gave women important calcium and iron intakes that could otherwise be obtained by drinking a quart of milk a day. Women especially need vitamin supplements, Chapman said, because they need 1,200 milligrams of calcium a day to maintain healthy bones.
"Vitamins do not replace good nutrition," Chapman said. "Students should maintain a healthy balanced diet consisting of foods from the food pyramid, and then in addition maybe add a vitamin supplement."
Rock said students should remain leery of some vitamins.
"Vitamins do not keep you from getting sick," Rock said.
VITAMIN FACTS
Vitamins normally taken to improve health can be harmful if used excessively.
People who use vitamins but don't maintain a balanced diet can damage their health. Doctors recommend a balanced diet in combination with vitamins is the best way to stay healthy.
A doctor or pharmacist should be consulted before starting any regular use of vitamins, especially in case a person is allergic to the substance.
"Be wary of claims on nutritional supplements that state that they boost one's energy or mood. Supplements are not regulated by the FDA and have side effects."
Cathy Thrasher, pharmacist at Watkins, said students should check with a pharmacist or doctor before taking any over-the-counter vitamin supplements because if students were allergic to anything, a certain type of vitamin could be harmful.

Stop whining about housing ordinance
Of all the parties involved in the debate about the proposed cap on non-related living arrangements, KU students seem to be the most self- righteous and the least legitimate.
The objections raised by most students seem to be threefold: One, the University is an integral part of the community; two, KU students contribute economically to Lawrence by working and consuming; and three, the proposal is not enforceable.
Initially, all of these objections might seem legitimate. However, when examined closely, these objections are much less compelling than they appear.
The first objection, that KU is an integral part of Lawrence, confuses the institution of the University with the individual KU student. While the University may be an integral part of Lawrence, KU students have certainly not integrated themselves into the Lawrence community. Few of us intend to stay here after our education is complete, and even fewer of us pay attention to the community except when it directly affects our lives.
over Christmas, they aren't registered to vote in Douglas County, and they probably haven't lived in their four-person dwellings for more than a year or two.
Most KU students don't stay in Lawrence
The second objection, that KU students deserve special treatment because of their status as economic factors, is simply ludicrous. KU students either have income from outside the community (i.e., parents), which would seem to indicate that they aren't really Lawrence denizens, or they work in Lawrence, in which case they have already been compensated for their labor. Saying that students deserve to live in a particular neighborhood because they are important to the economy is akin to saying that students deserve to park in blue lots because they are important to the University.
Robert Chamberlain columnist gorenjian@kansan.com
The third objection, that the policy is unenforceable, is the most valid of the three, but is far from a sure thing. Besides, if caps are inherently unworkable, why is there such vociferous protest of the two-person cap? It seems that if opponents of the cap who use this argument actually believed their own rhetoric, they wouldn't care what the cap was, and the whole issue would fade into obscurity.
So if KU students don't really have a legitimate position, then who does? The homeowners do. They complain, rightly, that their schools are closing, their neighborhoods are deteriorating and their property values are declining. These people are paying taxes, raising families and making a life for themselves here in Lawrence. They ought not be held hostage by the caprices of landlords who do the minimum essential maintenance on neighboring properties or vagaries of college students who have no vested interest in changing the wallpaper, painting the house or landscaping the yard. They have expressed their will through the democratic government of Lawrence, a government led by candidates whom you and I have chosen not to contribute to, support or elect.
That Mayor Jim Henry does not give priority to student concerns is the fault of no one but the students themselves. We are not his constituents because we have chosen not to be.
So as we debate the merits of this proposal, we must take care to remember the homeowners. Although we will be gone in four years (or five or six), they have to live with the consequences of the City Commission's ordinances. We must be sensitive to their concerns, understanding of their positions, and accepting of their decisions. We are only passers-by. They are the true residents of Lawrence.

Editorial
Ashcroft divides country
The Senate should reject George W. Bush's nominee for attorney general.
George W. Bush's appointment of former Sen. John Ashcroft as attorney General-designee calls into question his supposed reputation as "a uniter, not a divider." Ashcroff should not be confirmed.
Ashcroft has earned unprecedented scrutiny because of his fervent conservative ideology. His stance on issues such as gun control, abortion and civil rights have angered leaders of grassroots organizations who have united to campaign against Ashcroft's confirmation.
Ashcroft campaigned against school desegregation efforts in Kansas City and St. Louis. Ashcroft spoke at Bob Jones University while the school had a ban on interracial dating, although he claims he was unaware of the policy. And he trumped up charges to prevent an African-American justice from the Missouri Supreme Court from a seat on the federal bench.
Women's rights groups also are threatened by the Ashcroft nomination. Ashcroft is vehemently anti-abortion and believes that abortion should only be legal when the mother's life is in danger. He opposes abortion in all other instances, including rape and incest. While still a senator, he offered amendments and resolutions that would make abortion illegal. He also opposed insurance coverage for birth control pills and other forms of contraceptives.
The current confirmation battle is an unprecedented event. Cabinet nominations rarely come under fire. But the present divisive nature in Washington has made the process excessively arduous.
Even with the controversy, it appears unlikely that Ashcroft will not be confirmed. He has ties to many senators, and nominees have been rejected by the Senate only nine times in the entire history of the confirmation process.
Although the nomination is probable, the controversy surrounding this nomination has shown that Bush thus far has not lived up to his promise of uniting people.

Bowling team rises to No.15 in poll
The Kansas bowling team is ranked No. 15 in the latest collegebowling.com poll, released yesterday. The Jayhawks, who were unranked at the beginning of the season, jumped 17 spots in the latest poll.

St. John's was ranked No. 1, followed by previously top-ranked Central Missouri State, Saginaw Valley State, Arizona State and Western Illinois.

Ohio State chooses new football coach

Jim Tressel — and the college

introduced today as the Buckeyes' new coach, according to several media reports. WTVN-AM
and WBNS-TV quoted unidentified sources in the Ohio State athletic department as confirming Tressel's selection, and The Columbus Dispatch's Web site also reported that the 48-year-old Tressel would replace the fired John Cooper.
The Web site also said the Buckeyes were expected to hold a news conference today.
Tressel returned to Youngstown State yesterday, less than 200 miles from Columbus, and told his players of his interest in the Buckeyes.
By late afternoon, Tressel had left and a school representative said he did not know where the coach was headed.
NBA
Camby, Ferry fined suspended for punch
NEW YORK — Knicks center Marcus Camby was suspended for five games and fined $25,000 by the NBA yesterday for trying to sucker punch San Antonio's Danny Ferry.
Ferry, who had poked Camby in the eye, was suspended for one game and fined $7,500.
Camby's wild, roundhouse punch did not strike Ferry because Knicks coach Jeff Van Gundy stepped between them at the last moment.
Camby's outburst occurred after Ferry hit him in the eye while he and Ferry jostled for rebounding position in the fourth quarter of New York's 104-82 victory on Monday.
After being restrained by one referee and speaking with another, Camby dabbed at his eye, saw blood and bolted toward Ferry near the scorer's table.
If Van Gundy hadn't stepped in the way, the punch might have connected and Camby might have faced an even longer suspension.

Kansas State 80-59 in Manhattan on Tuesday night.
Sophomore Kareem Rush, the Big 12's leading scorer, scored just 12 points on 3-of-12 shooting, and Big 12 player of the week Clarence Gilbert scored just seven.
Patton was referring to Cyclones senior Jamaal Tinsley, who diced through the Colorado defense for 16 points, nine assists and gathered six boards.

"We were like 'Gee Whiz, we go ranked,' said Missouri coach Quin Snyder. "I kind of felt this coming. We have a pretty good team, but there is a false sense."
"We had our chances to get back into it," said Colorado coach Ricardo Patton, whose team dropped to 11-6 and 1-3. "I think they were just a better team. They have an NBA-quality point guard leading them, and that makes them extremely tough."

While fatigue may have played a factor in Missouri's loss, the other half of the four-overtime epic was victorious Tuesday. No. 23 Iowa State (14-3 and 2-2) shook off weak legs and still managed to pound Colorado 84-68 in Ames, Iowa.

Konsen sportswriter
For a team that appeared to be pulling everything together during the last two weeks, Nebraska self-destructed and No. 5 Kansas shucked the Cornhuskers 84-62 last night in Allen Fieldhouse.
It wasn't as if the "Huskers gave up either. Kansas (14-1 overall, 3-0 in the Big 12 Conference), simply hounded them with menacing double teams and pressure that forced 23 turnovers.
"Everyone was real fired up," said sophomore forward Nick Collison after Kansas' first game in the fieldhouse since Dec. 16. "It's been 31 days since we've been in here and it was just real fun to get another win here."
A blowout didn't look likely during the game's first two minutes when neither team scored. Collison and senior forward Kenny Gregory forced the turn of events when, after two Collison free throws, Kansas opened the flood gates and went on a 20-7 run with both players scoring six points.
The opening burst was capped by back-to-back steals by Kansas freshman point guard Mario Kinsey, one for an uncontested layup and the other a reverse jam by Gregory.
"I emphasize on my defense because that's what I want to do well," Kinsey said. "Their ball-handling was not that good. When we double-teamed they started to panic."
When Nebraska (8-8, 1-2) wasn't throwing the ball away, Kansas was taking it from them. The Jayhawks had eight steals, as Collison and senior center Eric Chenowith joined Kinsey with two each.
Sparked by its defense, Kansas continued to roll and sophomore forward Drew Gooden began to heat up. He scored six points in the final two minutes of the half, including a turn-around jumper that
pushed the lead to 20. Kansas led 38-20 at halftime, something that had coach Roy Williams all smiles.
"At times in the first half we were real good defensively," Williams said. "We had a stretch there where we got real good shots and made them. We got them to turn it over and passed it in on our offensive end."
That first half defense was so good, in fact, that Kansas held Nebraska's leading scorer Cookie Belcher to four points in the half and 10 for the game. Inside forces Kimani Friend and Steffon Bradford also were limited in scoring chances as Gooden and Collision denied them the ball.
"They really didn't get many touches," Collison said. "We were getting so many steals and pressuring the ball so well on top that they really couldn't get the ball. They had to try to do it with their perimeter guys."
Gooden's magic continued early into the second half as he had two dunks in the opening minutes. Kansas then scored on its next three possessions, which included five points by Boschee and a lay-in by Collison that pushed the lead to 23 points.
That's when the 'Huskers finally found their mark. More specifically, guard Cary Cochran found it. After hitting one threepointer in the first half, Cochran torched the Jayhawks for four treys in Nebraska's next nine possessions.
"Cary can really shoot the ball from outside," Williams said. "We've just got to get to him. He had some wide-open looks."
Kansas basketball notes
- Tensions flared during the first half on numerous occasions. Chenwith and Ffriend became entangled and were whistled for a double foul.
Following the play, Ffriend and Bradford began shoving each other and the teammates had a temporary "stare down."
Then Boschee was whistled for a technical foil after he said some choice words to an
official for a late call against Nebraska's Rodney Fields.

Defense stifles'Huskers
Bv Zac Hunter
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
For the second straight game, the Kansas frontcourt took center stage in an 84-62 victory against Nebraska last night in Allen Fieldhouse.
Led by senior forward Kenny Gregory, the Jayhawks played inspired defense for the first 20 minutes and shut down one of the league's best frontcourts long enough to put the game out of reach.
That came on the heels of Kansas' victory against Oklahoma on Saturday where they clamped down on the Sooners' leading scorer Aaron McGhee
Last night, although Nebraska senior forwards Kimani Friend and Steffon Bradford combined for 27 points — just one point lower than their season average — they were unable to keep Nebraska in the game.
Kansas coach Roy Williams was disappointed, however, that Friend was able to get some easy looks under the basket. Ffriend continued his torrid shooting pace, going 6-for-9 from the
field, which was four percentage points below his nation-leading average of 70.2 percent coming into the game.
"They threw it to Ffriend and we just turn around and let him spin inside," Williams said.
Perhaps the greatest example of Kansas' first half defense was the job Gregory did on Nebraska senior Cookie Belcher. Belcher leads the 'Huskers with 16 points per game, but was held to just 10 last night and had only four at the half.
On the offensive end, the Kansas forwards were unstoppable. Whether it was Gregory gliding to the hoop for two of his 20 points or sophomore Drew Gooden getting position on Friend and throwing down a one-handed jam, the 'Huskers had no answer.
"I think Cookie is a magnificent player," Williams said. "Our defense in the first half was good. He probably missed some shots that he thinks he should have made."
Gooden and Gregory's antics ignited an explosion of energy from the crowd.
"It was the first time in a while we've played here in the Fieldhouse." Gooden
said. "The crowd got me pumped up. The crowed really kept me into it. Everybody was on their feet yelling, chanting. It was a great night of basketball."
Sophomore forward Nick Collison was also in the scoring mix, hitting six of his seven shots for 16 points. He was also active on the defense end, blocking six shots and collecting six boards.
"I don't count that as his greatest skill," Williams said. "We're not a shot-blocking team, but they kept putting it in his face. His hand kept finding the basketball. If you block six shots you're really doing something."
Williams said any time he could get Collison, Gooden and Gregory with better than 50 percent shooting, he would take it. The three combined for 23-of-38 from the field, good for 60 percent. The trio proved to be the end of Nebraska, as they were 10 points away from outsourcing the entire 'Husker team.

Unity eludes Kansas women in loss

For the first time in nine meetings, the Oklahoma State Cowgirls (9-7 overall, 1-4 in the Big 12 Conference) corralled the Jayhawks (7-8, 1-3), snapping a four-game losing skid and capturing their first conference victory.
STILLWATER, Okla. — There were five players in blue on the floor last night, but a united Kansas women's basketball team didn't show up to play. As a result, the Jayhawks fell to Oklahoma State in Gallagher-Iba Arena, 61-53.
"We just have to get more people stepping up for us," said Kansas coach Marian Washington. "That's been our struggle this season. We just haven't had five players."
The Jayhawks, struggling for team unity throughout the game, faced an even greater challenge early in the second half.
Senior forward Jaclyn Johnson left the game with a left ankle sprain, leaving a hole in the paint the Jayhawks could not fill.
hurt us, Washington said. "I think the big difference in the game, for us anyway, was the offensive boards and turnovers. I thought they did a great job pounding the offensive glass, and it really hurt us when we weren't able to control the interior."

But the trouble didn't stop there. Three minutes after Johnson left the game, Kansas suffered another blow when senior guard Jennifer Jackson, who had a game-high 21 points, left the game after picking up her fourth personal foul with 13:24 to play.
Johnson
The 'Hawks had trouble hanging onto the ball, turning it over 26 times, and were unable to get the shots they wanted. Kansas shot 45.7 percent but took just 46 shots the entire game.
"Tonight we didn't have a whole lot going for us," Jackson said. "Give Oklahoma State credit, they came out tonight and outlaughed us."
With Jackson and Johnson out of the game, the Cowgirls took control of the game on both ends of the court, stunning an already deflated Kansas team.
Sports Columnist
"We didn't shoot enough times." Washington said. "You can't shoot only 46 times when you're shooting 48 percent."
But regardless of the lack of offense, the fire that Kansas had Saturday when it defeated Kansas State in Allen Fieldhouse was nowhere to be found. The 'Hawks were outstulted and outplayed for most of the game.
"I think against Kansas State we had a fire that we didn't have tonight," Jackson said. "We've got to find it and it's going to be
there every game to do well in this conference."
Senior forward Brooke Reves carries the load for the Jayhawks, scoring 1 points and grabbing 12 boards in a season high 39 minutes of play. Yet even with he leadership and Jackson's intensity, the team never united in the second half.
"They just really outrebounded us, outworked us the whole game." Reves said. "We tried to rally as many people on the team as we could, but we have to count on some other people to come along, too. We just weren't a team tonight."

Jackson needs four more assists to move past Tamecka Dixon into fourth place in Kansas history. Dixon had 337 assists in her career that spanned 1994-97.

Fred Roll is a muscle-maker.
Roll keeps Jayhawks in tip-top form ready to play
He's the man behind the brawn and the bodies of many Kansas athletes on the men's basketball and the football teams.
He spells out for each athlete under his instructive aegis what, when and how much to lift. He's a man of percentages and pounds, mathematically structuring each session's weight and conditioning workout.
Let's face it, we all wish that we could have our own personal trainer, telling us what and how much to lift to achieve certain goals. I wish I had someone I could turn to to plan a program to keep me fit, strong, injury-free and to just plain feel like She-ra.
But Fred Roll is no personal
But Fred Roll is no personal trainer.
His job is a thankless one that isn't something any certified gym rat can handle.
He's in his Allen Fieldhouse office at 6 a.m. and doesn't peel out of the parking lot for dinner until almost 7 p.m. He attends conferences, writes articles on strength training and conditioning and is constantly updating himself on new training information.
So I'm just going to let you know who Fred Roll is and what he does. So, stick with me because the guy deserves your full attention and the full length of my column.
And although Roll has received many awards from his peers through the years, it's about time that he receives recognition in the public eye.
And although Roll is currently the director of strength and conditioning for the football and basketball teams, he's worked with every single one of the 22 sports that field Jayhawk teams, as the former head of strength and conditioning for all sports at Kansas.
The Durham, N.C., native had also headed up programs at Clemson and Tulane before taking the reins of strength and conditioning at Kansas 12 years ago. He was the head of the strength and conditioning department for all sports for the first nine in his 12 years here before deciding to head up just football and basketball.
However, even if Roll doesn't win the award when it is announced in July, he already has a Big Eight Strength and Conditioning Professional of the Year award on the wall (circa 1996) and a reputation as an "innovative" professional.
However, it doesn't matter if Roll is heading up every sport or just football and basketball, he's darn good at what he does.
Earlier this month, Roll was nominated for the 2001 College Strength and Conditioning Professional of the Year Award by the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA). He's one of 14 nominees for the award who are nominated by their peers in the collegiate muscle making industry (otherwise known as members of the NSCA).
Every Jayhawk knows about coach Allen and coach Williams. But what about coach Roll?
Coach Roll deserves at least a tiny space for his accomplishments in every true Jayhawk's brain. He's not the type of guy who would really want a fan club or groupies shouting his name and mimicking his big and bald Mr. Clean-type appearance.
All I ask, if you got this far in my column, is to just remember the name and cross your fingers in hopes that he'll bring home another award to the University of Kansas.

the upbeat dance club atmosphere of Tremors to the more subdued ambiance of Teller's even though there were good and bad points to both.
"It's not as easy to really meet someone at Tremors because it's loud and people are dancing," he said. "All it is a physical—that's what's bad about that place—it's like a meat market. But At Tellers you sit around and laugh at everyone, and you have good conversations with people."
"It's fun, it's pretty normal— not much different than going out to any other bar or night-club," Becker said. "It's just a bunch of people really drunk. It's a college town and singles town after all."
But he said going out to a place during an alternative lifestyle or family night was basically just like going out on any other night.
But the crowd that frequents these nights for whatever reason — atmosphere, conversation, or the prospect of hooking up — is anything but stereotypical or segregated.
In fact, the feelings of some patrons is that anyone — no matter what sex or sexual orientation — can go out on Family or Alternative Lifestyle night
and have fun.
Kim Robertson, Lenexa junior, said she liked going out with gay friends.
"They're just generally good to talk to," she said. "I don't have to worry about them hitting on me, and it's fun to guess which one of us people are hitting on."
But not all KU students head to Tremors or Teller's when they want to have fun with a diverse group of people.
In fact, Ryen Anderson, Lawrence junior, said he preferred places like Henry's, a coffee shop at 11 E. 8th St., because it didn't have a night specifically for people — gay, straight or anything else. Anderson said at other places he was missing out on diversity.
"If something is specifically gay, it makes me feel like I'm losing a lot of experience I could have been getting by frequenting environments that aren't designated as gay-friendly," he said.
As Anderson spoke, he glanced around at the varied group of people reading, talking and playing games in the bright coffee-scented interior of Henry's. Like the others, the major vibe of the place is that sexuality doesn't matter.
Robertson said she liked hanging out at Henry's for the atmosphere and the coffee, not because of who was hanging out — gay or straight.
"I tend to treat someone being gay as a hair color; it's just a characteristic, not something that matters," she said. "So it never occurred to me to think about if this place is better because of gay people."
But Becker said the fun atmosphere in places such as Tremors and Teller's was the reason for

Tuesday night's crowd enjoys the atmosphere at Teller's, 746 Mcchusetts St. Tuesday night is considered Family Night, a community friendly event.
Lawrence bars offer alternatives for alternative lifestyles
Story by Meghan Bainum
"It's fun, it's pretty normal not much different than going out to any bar or nightclub. It's just a bunch of people really drunk. It's a college town and singles town after all."
Some of the bargoors are playing the getting-to-know-you game, supported by the sexy sounds of Portishead piped in through the sound system. Others, separated into couples, cuddle by the bar.
Jack Anderson, a University of Kansas student from Zaandam, Amsterdam, explains his choice of drink for the night.
"I start off with Guinness — it's like beef pressure" he said. "But
light casts shadows on the faces of the people gathered in the bar area, and the bartender stays busy pouring beers and mixing drinks.

generally I have vodka and tonic with bitters."
As Anderson sips his "breakfast," he explains that the Tuesday Family Night at Tellers, which started about four years ago, is not just a night for gay men — a common misconception.
"It implies anyone who is anywhere under the rainbow of gay culture," he said. "Basically, anybody who is associated with, sympathetic for, or enjoys the presence of the alternative lifestyle community — or is an active participant."
Although Lawrence has had little success supporting a fully gay bar, Teller's, 746 Massachusetts St., and Tremors Night
Club, 729 New Hampshire St. offer specialized nights for the gay community.
The bass beat of dance music throbs out of Tremors on Wednesday night's Alternative Lifestyle Night. Inside the club, bodies gyrate wildly to Cher's Believe while couples catch stolen PDA moments in the crowd, which includes lesbians, gays and heterosexuals.
Todd Becker, Kansas City,
Kan., junior, said he preferred
the upbeat dance club atmosphere of Tremors to the more subdued ambiance of Teller's even though there were good and bad points to both.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday [Jan. 18]. Frustrations with work lead to action this year. The results may be better than you thought possible. First, clean out your closets in November. A disappointment in December leads to a lucky break by January. Your home life's unusual, but leave it as is in February. An idea you get at home applies on the job by April, and by May you could be dusting off old skills. Rely on a partner's help, too, and by June you should be lookin' good. Take time for yourself in July. Tackle a domestic challenge with friends in October.
To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day,
0 the most challenging.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is an 8.
A meeting with friends or associates could uncover a problem. This may take a day or two to sort out.
Don't be dismayed at this delay. Plan an outing with a loved one for tonight. Go a little farther than usual to get a change from your routine.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 5.
Your mate wants more of your time and attention.
Have you been spending too much of it at work
lately? You may feel under pressure, but keeping a little balance in your life is important.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) - Today is a 5. Travel isn't a good idea although you might eventually get through. Why bother? Even a phone call might take two or three tries. But your fingers getting tired from punching redial is better than you being stuck four hours in traffic.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is a 6.
You're looking good, but that's not enough. Be careful with your money. Somebody you love wants something you can't afford. You make a good impression on an older person with your recent work. Don't spend this raise before you get it.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 7.
You'll probably emerge triumphant, but you haven't, yet. Everybody seems to know how you should run your life. Listen politely, and then do what you've already decided. Extra time being thoughtful will help you get them on your side.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 6.
A technical breakdown at work makes life miserable. If you're using delicate instruments or a computer, have a backup plan. To reward yourself for a tough day, go shopping later. Something you've been looking for is on sale.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct 22) — Today is a 6.
Somebody you love wants something badly.
However, giving your loved ones everything they want isn't possible. The lesson this time is about deferring gratification and developing creativity.
You could almost make this fun. Go for it.
C
LAWRENCE COUNTY HIGH SCHOOL
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 6.
You may have to just say no. Somebody at home isn't pleased, but you are too busy to argue. Pull rank, if necessary. This will not damage the other person beyond repair. In fact, it'll be good for him or her.
2
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 7.
Don't believe everything you hear. Errors and lies can even come from authority figures. Talk over what you've discovered with a person who's on your side. This problem may take a while to correct. Just never quit.
FITNESS
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is a 6.
A lot of "worthy causes" have great uses for your money. Hold off on that. Right now you can't afford to fund a lot of bureaucats. Make a budget and include your favorite charities. You'll save time and spend more wisely.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is a 6.
Don't bother to travel; it's too much trouble. The
forecast is for technical difficulties. Take your vehicle
in for an oil change. You'll find out everything else it needs. That might be expensive, but good preventative maintenance.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is a 6.
An older person's intent on telling you what to do.
You're just as intent on resisting. Your idea may not be realistic. Or, maybe you lack information.
Instead of quarreling, do more research. Start with the question the other person raised.

Spymob appeals to all from pop to rock fans
CD Reviews
Spymb combines the sounds of Ben Folds Five, the Police and commercial jingles to produce its own unique sound.
"Thinking of Someone Else," the
opening track of their album On Pilot Mountain is the song in which the most influence of commercial jingles can be heard. It seemed to be very derivative of the classic Cool Whip jingle.

However, there are a few fast-paced songs, like their lead single, "Trust." This CD may not play well

— Susie Schinker Christian band message not clearly religious
"The Causey Way is not a cult," claim the promotional personnel who work for The Causey Way at Alternative Tentacles Records in San Francisco.
And The Cause Way is not your typical Christian band either, in fact.

critiquing, satirizing, paying tribute to or preaching modern religion. They'd probably rather see you worship their funky outfits and hip art-wave sounds than actually pay attention to what they're saying.
The band takes its cue from science-fiction rock bands such as Man or Astroman? and Devo, but their subject of fascination is religion, not outer space or technology. They exude a playful sense of make-believe and a synth-driven, whiz-popping sound that mixes equal parts technology and standard instrumentation.
got their best, The Causey Way matches the intensity of a Surfer Rosa-era Pixies, trading male/female vocals and even singing a few songs in Spanish. Their self-penned "New-Testament Wave" sound is frantically-poppy and always pogo-able.
Lead vocalist Causey often infuses his sermons with a vindictive Johnny Rotten-esque sneer.
"Commandments" sounds like a spytack to a 21st-century "Night Rider," while "Jesus Loves You" delivers such gems as "Jesus loves you — you're gonna burn."
So don't buy this CD looking for answers to any great theological questions. But if you're a fan of Man or Astroman? or even David Bowie, and you can stomach a bit of playful religious propaganda, The Cause Way might just make a convert out of you.
The Causey Way will play Wednesday, Jan. 31 at the Replay Lounge.

Students exhibit playwriting talent
By Erinn R. Barcomb
jayplay @kanson.com
jayplay editor
I am so happy to be here with you. I hope you are feeling well and can enjoy the evening. Thank you for coming. Have a great time!
The cast of the play "Bunnies" is one of three English Alternative Theatre groups participating in a festival today through Saturday at Johnson County Community College. Members are, from left, Jamie Weber, Ginger Bartoski, Will Averill and Christina Schafer. Contributed Photo
Three student playwrights will see their work come off the page and alive on stage today and Saturday in Overland Park at the Kennedy Center/American College Theatre Festival.
The English Alternative Theatre will perform the students' pieces before judges who will decide if any of them will go on to be performed at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. in April.
The students wrote the works in playwriting classes taught by Paul Stephen Lim, professor of English. The pieces range from "Whiteout," a full-length play by Alan Newton, Lawrence graduate student, about friends from high school who meet again during the course of the play, to a 10-minute play, "Big Envelopes," by Matthew Hubbard, Prairie Village junior.
"Bunnies," a one-act play by Michael O'Brien, looks at the life of Hugh Hefner prior to founding Playboy magazine.
Lim, who founded EAT in 1989, said the process allowed the playwrights to see their work come alive.
"What's the point of writing plays if they can never see them done?" he said.
Hubbard lived a live version of "Big Envelopes," the story of an
overachieving high school senior trying to get into college.
Hubbard himself was dead-set on a career in medicine after graduating from an Ivy League college. His hopes were dashed when he got four rejection letters on the same day.
"That was a personal experience," he said. "It was so long and painful."
The students' work will be judged not just on the original script, but also on the staging, including aspects such as sound, lighting and costuming. The
playwrights and EAT have to work together to see the play come alive.
"Not only do you have to explain what each line means, but how the character is saying it in your head," Hubbard said.

Options abound despite Gore's loss
By Greg Zielinski
jayplay@kanson.com
jayplay columnist
Though the new millennium is
still very young, it has already had its share of fascinating, incredible and controversial news stories. Since the Saved by the Bell flasco at Bayside High when Mr. Belding left Screech in charge for the day, to Jessie and Slater's shocking breakup, the news of our world has rarely been
100
PETER CURTIS
so thought-
Ziolinski
provoking. Still, the biggest news story of 2001 has clearly been the slightly less humorous presidential election. Like it or not, George W. Bush will be our nation's president for the next four years, ushering in an era of constant smirking and comical dyslexia. But what will become of the other candidates? While Ralph Nader will probably retire to his commune with his army of idealist hippies, Al Gore's future seems decidedly less certain. Here are a few suggestions of how Al could spend his time:
Top Ten Post-Election Plans for Al Gore:
10) Help Jimmy Carter build houses for disadvantaged families, donating his time as a wall stud.
9) Move back in with Tommy Lee Jones and his other college "roommate," the 4-foot PVC pipe "King Bong."

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — When a 10-year-old heard about a New Jersey police dog that took a bullet for its department, he decided he wanted to do something to protect the canine cops in town.
Young boy raises money for police dog's protection
Oddities
So Jacob Rumer has been collecting money since July to buy a bulletproof vest for Yukon. The 3-year-old German shepherd is the Morgantown Police Department's only law-enforcing dog.
"It's important that we try to do as much as we can for the dogs that try and protect us," Jacob said.
"it's something they need, but we normally wouldn't buy something like this," said officer C.H. Lott, Yukon's handler. The vests cost $650; Jacob has raised $500.
Teen caught running away as he hitched ride on rig
PORTLAND, Ore. — A teenager apparently running away from home didn't get very far riding on the dolly bar connecting two trailers of a commercial rig.
A passing motorist spotted the 16-year-old runaway jump between the trailers while it was stopped at an intersection.
The driver called the Oregon State Police. Troopers stopped the truck, which was traveling about 60 mph.
The boy was returned to his parents. Driver Donald S. Herbert, 45, of Vancouver, Wash., didn't know the teen was on his truck.
Man sentenced to probation for spraying women with oil
COLUMBUS, Ohio — A man accused of spraying women with a mixture of urine and salad oil has been sentenced to cleaning restrooms and animal cages at the zoo.
Michael Cautela, 39, pleaded no contest this week in Franklin County Municipal Court to two counts of aggravated menacing.
"You seem to like waste products," Judge James Fais said to Cautela.
Police said he sprayed two women with the mixture July 6 outside a bookstore. When asked why he did it, Cautela said, "I just like to see ladies with oil on them."
Cautela was also sentenced to five years of probation.
Kerrville resident protests zoning rules with toilets
mended the City Council deny his request to sell "high end" used cars on his plot of land along Highway 16.
SAN ANTONIO — To hear landowners tell it, zoning rules in the central Texas town of Kerrville have allowed the neighborhood to go to pot. Don Holmes has been stewing since a planning and zoning commission last month reco-
In protest, he placed 22 used portable toilets for sale in the space.
"I could literally do anything I want to over there but try to sell cars," said Holemes, 64.
The yellow toiletis, sold for $150 each, sit next to a multimillion-dollar hotel in the town north.
"I'm on my way over there right now to put signs on them that say, 'one owner' and 'low mileage.'" Holmes said yesterday.

DANCE
The Trinity Irish Dance Company will step into the Lied Center at 8 p.m. Saturday for a demonstration of their unique Irish dance. Contributed Photo
Trinity breaks mold of Irish dance
By Matt Merkel-Hess
japlay@kanan.com
japlay writer
Before Riverdance, Lord of the Dance or the recent commercial featuring the spoof "Hudson Riverdance," there was Trinity.
The Trinity Irish Dance Company, the group that laid the foundation for the Irish dance phenomenon, will stop its way onto the Lied Center stage this Saturday with its rhythmic, high energy style of dance. Founded in Chicago in 1990 by Irish-American Mark Howard, Trinity broke out of a tradition that previously relegated Irish dance to competitions and folk festivals.
Howard, a champion dancer himself, formed the company to provide professional career opportunities to Irish dancers and expand the boundaries of the style. His company has stayed closer to the roots of the traditional dance, shunning the commercialization and glitz of
other,more famous Irish dance productions.
Trinity shows include dances with the rigid torso posture that defines the traditional style and more dramatic pieces with upper body movements and storylines. Either way, quick, precise footwork will be the driving force.
"There's a strong connection between the rhythm and the dancers," said Jeff Potter, Great Bend sophomore. "I think Irish is really rich in rhythm, just like tap."
Potter danced as a child but quit in seventh grade, and it wasn't until he saw performances of Riverdance and Lord of the Dance that he took up dancing again. He's now a dance major and takes private lessons in Irish dance.
"I'm excited to see how different it is from Lord of the Dance," he said.
Michelle Whiteley, an Omaha, Neb., junior, also compared Irish dance to tap.
"It's very entertaining because of
the rhythm," she said. "It's kind of like going to a music concert but you get visual stuff, too."
In addition to the evening performance, members of the Trinity Dance Company will give a master class Saturday afternoon. Cassandra Howard, Lied Center education director, said the class was open to any skill level.
"For many people in the community, this will be an opportunity to learn more about Irish step dancing," she said.
The longer, dramatic pieces that made Trinity and other productions famous have been present in competition dancing for years, said Jean Denney, member of the Kansas Arts Commission and former professional in modern and Irish dance.
Although Mark Howard did not invent the genre as she said he claimed, his productions are tightly rehearsed.
"It's an extremely well-rehearsed

Actors Geoffrey Rush (right) and Kate Winslet star in *Quilts*, a film about the life of the Marquis de Sade. Contributed Photo
Quills offers erotic look into life of Frenchman
By Clare McLellan
By Clare McCellan
joyplay@kansan.com
Jayplay reviewer
It's no surprise that a movie about the so-called "father of sadism," a movie full of sexual innuendoes, explicit sex scenes and violence is currently restricted to art house distribution.
It should not, however, limit the attention and praise the film *Quilts* deserves. It boldly pushes boundaries in its exploration of a highly intriguing historical figure, the Maroude de Sade.
Donation Alphonse François de Sade was born in Paris in 1740. Imprisoned for his raunchy writings, he did time at the Bastille in Paris before being transferred to an insane asylum just prior to the French Revolution, which began in 1789. The film focuses on his time at this Catholic-run asylum, which did nothing to exorcise the "demons" that raged inside the Marquis' (Geoffrey Rush) mind. It perhaps added fuel to their fire. The Marquis found any way possible to deliver his seedy stories to the public.
In doing so, the Marquis "befriends" a chambermaid, Madeleine (Kate Winslet), to sneak his work out beyond the asylum walls. When The Abde de Coulmier (Joaquin Phoenix), who runs the asylum, is informed of the Marquis' underhandness, he tries many methods to curtail the Marquis' bad behavior. Enter Dr. Royer-Collard (Michael Caine), a doctor who specializes in all sorts of human torture to rehabilitate deviants. Of course, Collard turns out to be quite the sleazy character, who preaches social justice but

who practices behavior not so far removed from the naughtiness that drips from the Marquis' quill.
The Abbe, conversely, is a truly good hearted man of God, who still struggles with his vow of chastity as the lovely Madeleine takes particular interest in him. The Marquis' front of a twisted nymphomaniac is slowly incinerated by his hidden feelings for Madeleine as well. Madeleine, who appears to be a fairly lustful girl, turns out to be the most innocent of them all.
Rush (Shine, Shakespeare in Love) proves, yet again, that he is one of Hollywood's finest. His humor, his sorrow and his depravity are all executed with the same precision and purity.
Winslet, who garnered huge fame in *Titanic*, proves the depth of her ability in more obscure roles such as this and other smaller screen films such as *Hideous Kinky*.
Although the film may not be completely historically accurate, director Philip Kaufman tackled new territory with this film, and has done so in fine form. Quilis is an extremely well-crafted piece of cinema. Bottom line: Not simply for an art house crowd.

Practical tips:
Do not tell yourself that you can't eat certain foods.
Make a goal to eat six servings of fruits and vegetables a day. This plan will fill you up with foods that are more nutritious.
For weight loss and better health, a cheap solution is drinking at least eight Bounce glasses of water a day. The extra fluid will keep you from snacking when you are not hungry, and the water will keep you hydrated and healthy.
If you find it easy to blame Mrs. E's for your eating habits, remember that you do have control over what you choose for snacks between meals. Keep it light and nutritious with an apple or some baby carrots and then eat meals in moderation.
- Keep yourself exercising despite the climate, find a friend with similar fitness goals and make regular appointments to work out together. This provides not only companionship, but accountability.
Don't forget about Robinson. When the weather frustrates your exercise plans, get your heart rate up indoors.

Resolutions often tough to keep
Bv Abigail Swift
Students fed up with making New Year's resolutions they can't keep have led some to write off the process altogether.
jayplay@kansan.com
"I don't make New Year's resolutions," said Daniica Frialt, Salt Lake City freshman. "I figured that out when I was five."
Jayplay writer
However, others value the opportunity for self-improvement, deciding to be less judgmental or not to eat any ice cream in 2001.
jaynley@kansan.com
The majority of students' goals involve food and fitness, said Jen Burns, Overland Park graduate student, and she was not exempt from this classification.
Thousands of Americans who made fitness-related resolutions at the turn of the millennium might find those glorious goals in critical condition, if not already dead and buried. Winter weather, holiday leftovers and procrastination are daunting foes on the quest for fitness.
"I'm actually going to attend KU Fit this semester," Burns said.
To revive the dedication when many ill-fated resolutions never see February, students should make them goals, not resolutions.
For example, if a student decides not to eat any fried foods in 2001, then one french fry and the game's over.
Ann Chapman, registered dietitian at Watkins Memorial Health Center, recommends gradually making those lifestyle changes.
For more about students' New Year's recollections, see tomorrow's feature page.
"Many students set too ambitious of a goal," she said. "It really sets them up to fail. Set small attainable goals and build on those."
Structure can keep those longterm goals in sight, but it is also important to incorporate regular evaluation. Monthly or weekly self-evaluations will keep it honest, providing maximum satisfaction in the long run.

Gear for winter wear
By Susie Schinker

japlay writer
Students walking around campus the next couple of weeks might be wearing the new clothes they received during holiday break.
With the National Weather Service predicting a continuously cold winter, students might have to accessorize with hats, gloves, mittens and scarves. And they can do it in style.
One of the new things for women this winter is the long-belted cardigans.
"Ilike to wear mine out as a coat because it keeps me warm, and it is still stylish," Rachel Riekes, Omaha, Neb., sophomore, said.
No matter what style students prefer, winter gear can be found in just about every color and material.
Kris Graves, Backwoods assistant manager, said prices reflected quality and that items for skiing and backpacking were more expensive because they lasted longer.
Stores such as The Gap, 647 Massachusetts St., offer students dressier items while stores such as Backwoods, 916 Massachusetts St., offer more functional gear.

Fashion suggestions:
■ Everyone should have a winter coat, of course, and a couple of accessories to go along with it like a hat or headband, a scarf and a pair of gloves. These accessories will help keep you warm through the chilly winter months.
- Pick the things you like and ensure they express your personality.
■ The key to being fashionable is to keep it simple and match your accessories to your coat. You don't want to wear a pink stocking hat, green gloves, a purple scarf and a blue coat. You need to focus on two or three colors, your coat being one color and your accessories being the other. For instance, let's say you have a gray coat. You might want to try matching it with light blue or off-white accessories. It basically comes down to what you prefer and what looks the best on you.
If you keep these tips in mind, they will help you stay warm and fashionable for the remainder of the winter. Just remember to make sure you know why you are buying your outerwear.

Gas explosions continue to rock town

Downtown Hutchinson explosion
Officials have been evacuating Hutchinson residents this week after multiple natural gas explosions.

By J. R. Mendoza editor@canasan.com Kanasa w editor
HUTCHINSON — The explosions rocking Hutchinson are making some University of Kansas students from the area concerned about family and friends living in the south central Kansas town.
Police evacuated hundreds of people — including children at three schools — after an explosion yesterday at a mobile home park was blamed on a natural gas geyser, one of several that sprouted on the city's east side.
The blast followed Wednesday's explosion and fire that leveled two businesses in downtown Hutchinson, injuring two people — two days after fire destroyed a Hutchinson hotel under construction.
Cousins Cathy and Maya Tillman,
both Hutchinson juniors, heard about the explosions from Maya Tillman's roommate, who is also from Hutchinson. The Tillmans immediately called their families and were relieved to find out they were unmined.
Maya Tillman's family lives around the corner from the mobile home park and had to be evacuated, she said. She said her mother told her that the family would stay at the Hutchinson Fairgrounds. She said she was frightened for her family.
According to a representative for the American Red Cross, 72 families were registered to stay at the fairgrounds. Mayor Patrick McCreary said that it would be two to four days before the families were allowed back into their neighborhoods.
"I thought it was crazy," Cathy Tillman said. "Nothing like that ever happens there. It's big news."
"That's really scary for it to be so close to home," Tillman said.
Carmen Vieyra, Hutchinson sophomore, said she was also concerned for her family.
"I hope they are not anywhere near an explosion," Vieyra said. Some of yesterday's viewers, which
created plumes of vapor mixed with soil, reached as high as 30 feet, police said. The cause was being investigated, but an expert from the Kansas Geological Survey said the source might be a disconnection in an old gas well in the area.
Police said several blocks of houses were evacuated after the fire at Big Chief Mobile Home Park. Students from St. Teresa's and
Three injuries, including two serious, were reported in the mobile home explosion. At least two burn victims were airlifted to a Wichita hospital.

Hutchinson Fire Chief Gary Frazier said five natural gas leaks had been reported on the city's east side.
A couple planning their wedding at a party supply store suffered minor injuries in Wednesday's explosion, which destroyed the store and a furniture shop. Six employees at the two stores were not injured.
A block-long section of the downtown area was evacuated after the blast, which cut power to much of the area, including the Reno County courthouse.

Students struggle with leaving family farms
By Sarah Smarsh

Some University of Kansas students' decisions affect more than their own paths in life — they also shape the future of their families' legacies.
Chadd Clary, Ft. Scott junior, fills the bins with grain for the cattle he feeds for a farmer south of Lawrence. Clary is the fourth generation of his family's farm near Nevada, Mo.

Students who come to the University after growing up in the agricultural community deal with the big questions eventually met by the average student — what career to pursue, which opportunities to take, where to settle down. But they must also plot their lives with another factor in mind — the family farm.
The fate of those farms usually lies with their youngest residents, and many farms are slowing to a halt due to waning agricultural interest within their newest generation. Record numbers of "farm kids" are deciding to pursue an education for work in another trade.
Adrienne Smith, Leavenworth senior, is a math major with a passion for traveling. She also represents her family's sixth generation on their farm in Leavenworth County. Smith said that, after going out to see the world, she will edge her ambitions back to her agricultural roots.
"The farm is really important to everyone in our family, and we don't want to lose it." Smith said.
But holding on to tradition has its challenges. Smith's family gave up growing soy beans and wheat in the 1980s—about 100 years after the family farm began
— as earning a profit proved too difficult with their minimal acreage. Her dad became an accountant, and her mother utilized some of the land for gardening. The Smiths maintain six horses, but the cattle that once grazed their land are gone.
The Smiths' struggle to keep their farm afloat is a common one
for family operations. The commodity markets have not been kind in recent years. Kansas wheat prices fell in 1998 to where they stood in 1866. Over half of Kansas farm income now comes from federal subsidies, according to the Kansas State Board of Agriculture.
farms totaled about 69,000; in the decade since, more than 10,000 of those farms have shut down. The financial hardship of the business plays a big role in young people's apprehension about farming.
In 1990, the number of Kansas

much water. It's just dependent on so many things."
Clary said that, for practical reasons, he won't make farming his livelihood. He is now pursuing a
mechanical engineering degree.
Clary, the fourth generation on his family's farm, grew up working land — about 600 acres of soybeans, wheat and milo — in southeast Kansas and southwest Missouri. He now works for a farmer outside of Lawrence and

Naismith to tighten hall security after thefts
By Lauren Brandenburg
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
A recent string of thefts at Naismith Hall is one reason that the hall's management is taking steps to tighten security in August, said Jason Olds, property manager.
Olds, who has worked at Naismith for six years, said this year had been a bad year, with a more-distinct pattern than before to the thefts from residents' rooms.
"We had a rash of them over break," he said.
Naismith does not close during breaks. Olds said he knew of at least six reports of thefts since Thanksgiving.
Lauren Brown, Omaha, Neb., freshman, said she had left her room locked when she went home during break and found it locked when she returned, but her stereo was gone.
She said the only people allowed into her room during break were maintenance workers. She had received a notice before break, she said, that she needed to move furniture so workers could clean the showers and work on air vents.
Four floors above, Leslie Zarda, Shawnee freshman, reported that $200 in quarters was stolen from a container in her closet. Someone had to have a key to access the room, she said.
Down the hall from Zarda, Nick Kastl, Lawrence freshman, said he noticed his leather jacket and cologne were missing when he changed clothes and wanted to wear his jacket.
All three students said they told employees at the desk about the thefts and were told to file police reports.
Olds said that Naismith staff first tells students to call the police and file a report. The next step, he said, is a criminal investigation, with which he and his staff would cooperate.
The three students said they questioned whether maintenance workers might be responsible because they had received notices saying work would be done on air vents during break.
Olds said resident assistants and maintenance staff should have been the only ones in the rooms. He said staff members inspected each room to make sure windows were shut, doors were locked and curling irons were unplugged. He said they may have changed filters as well.
"I am concerned that, yes, it appears that there is a breach of security somewhere in the system." Olds said.
He said he suspected someone who should not have access to the rooms, possibly a former employee. still had a key.
Olds said he wished he would have advised students to remove any valuables from their rooms but would be sure to do it next year.
"When you're living in a community environment, whether the door is locked or not, I wouldn't recommend leaving your laptop there for three weeks. That is something I've learned."
KU students travel to D.C. to attend the March for Life

Kansas staff writer
Collins graduated from the University of Kansas in December but returned this weekend to board a bus with more than 100 students and travel 22 hours to Washington, D.C. to participate in the 28th annual March for Life.
Alison Collins is ready to take a stand and march for what she believes in.
by anti-abortion activists to protest the Supreme Court's 1973 decision in the Roe vs. Wade case. The march will take place on Monday, which is the 28th anniversary of the decision.
"I graduated but I cleared my schedule because I think that a lot of times people who are pro-choice are more involved in the media," Collins said. "It's nice to see people who are pro-life making a stand."
The group, which leaves today, was organized by the St. Lawrence Catholic Campus Center. This is the
second year in which students from St. Lawrence have attended the rally. However, Collins, who was a member of KU Students for Life, said that members of St. Lawrence weren't the only students who attended the event.
"It's not a requirement to be Catholic to go," Collins said. "Last year we had non-Catholics and people who weren't even pro-life go on the trip just to see what it was all about."
Collins also said that she believed
that the numbers of KU students going on the trip jumped from 40 to 100 because of tomorrow's inauguration of George W. Bush, who opposes abortion except in cases with special circumstances.
"I think that there's been a strong pro-life movement in Lawrence," Collins said. "I think a lot of it has to do with the election of President Bush and his possible appointment of pro-life Supreme Court justices."
Justin Phelps, Wichita junior,
attended last year's march and will
attend Monday's march. He said that the 2000 event was an exhilarating experience.
“It's shoulder-to-shoulder packed in before the march,” Phelps said.
“It's a half a million people praying and being excited just to be there. It's awesome.”
"A lot of people carry signs throughout the march." Phelps said.
Phelps, who is a member of KU Students for Life and St. Lawrence, also said that the march is set in a very passive environment.
"But it's very peaceful. I don't remember anything bad happening there last year."
Phelps said that last year's group attended both an AIDS hospice and the Holocaust Museum, which he said he thought were appropriate for the event, because in his view he is protesting murder.
"Conception is a miracle to Catholics," Phelps said. "It is a work of God. It is not our place to say who lives or dies."

Clinton gets positive public approval rating
An ABC News-Washington Post poll
WASHINGTON — President Clinton prepares to leave office with some of the highest job approval ratings of any president in the last half-century, says a new poll. However, people still have their doubts about him personally.
released Wednesday night showed that 65 percent approved of his job performance, about the same as the job approval rating Ronald Reagan had at the end of his term. They had the highest end-of-term ratings of any presidents in the last half-century
Jinton: people still have doubts about him personally
THE MAN IN THE CITY
The approval of Clinton's job performance was tracked closely with public perception of economic conditions. As the economic recovery began to gain momentum in the summer of 1996, the president's approval rating crept above 60 percent.
The public's view of Clinton is sharply divided along partisan lines, with 93 percent of Democrats approving of his job performance and only 32 percent of Republicans.
Reversing abortion law not a goal for Ashcroft
WASHINGTON — As his prospects for confirmation as attorney general improved, John Ashcroft promised Wednesday not to seek Supreme Court reversal of a woman's right to abortion and pledged to defend the constitutionality of gun controls he had opposed in the Senate.
Ashcroft picked up his first Democratic veto when Sen. Zell Miller of Georgia announced his support. Other Democrats on the Judiciary Committee predicted Ashcroft's confirmation in the evenly divided Senate.
Under detailed questioning by skeptical Democrats, the former Missouri senator reaffirmed his personal opposition to abortion.
But he emphasized that he had no intention of attempting to get the high court to reverse the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade abortion decision, which he once called "a miserable failure."
Jesse Jackson admits to extramarital affair
CHICAGO — The Rev. Jesse Jackson withdrew from public view at a potentially critical hour for the civil rights movement yesterday after disclosing that he had an extramaternal affair, which resulted in the birth of a daughter a year and a half ago.

Representative John Scanlon said Jackson issued the statement to get out in front of anticipated tabloid reports. Scanlon said the child was the result of an affair Jackson had with a woman who worked in the Washington office of Jackson's civil rights group, the Rainbow-PUSH Coalition.
In his statement, Jackson said he would temporarily step aside from public life to spend time with his family.

Earlier, Bush, who won the White House despite losing the popular vote and winning scant support from black voters, told the Republican National Committee's winter meeting;
"I want everybody to hear loud and clear that I'm going to be the president of everybody. Whether they voted for me or not, I'm their president."
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — The lights went out in nearly 2 million California homes and businesses yesterday in a second straight day of blackouts as state lawmakers struggled to find a way out of the deepening crisis.
Numbers of blackouts leave state in the dark
The blackouts began about 10 a.m. and stretched from the Bakersfield area of central California to Oregon, 500 miles away. The rolling outages lasted about two hours.
Power managers said they expected to have enough power to avoid more blackouts at nightfall, though more problems were possible today.
Hospitals and airports were exempt from the outages, and homecare patients who rely on electrically powered medical equipment had batteries or backup generators.
Utilities refused to disclose which areas were blacked out, but the effects were obvious: Traffic lights went out for a second day across the San Francisco Bay area, causing fender-benders in Palo Alto. Computer screens went dark, heaters and bank machines were silent and lights went out in classrooms.

Congo leader's death brings turmoil to nation
KINSHASA, Congo — Two days after President Laurent Kabilla was gunned down in his presidential palace, Congo's government acknowledged yesterday that he had died, ending uncertainty about his fate but leaving this deeply troubled nation fearful over its future.
Kabila's son Joseph has already been thrust into power as his temporary replacement, but the question of a permanent successor could bring more turmoil in a nation already split by civil war and wrecked by poverty.
Joseph Kabila, who was army chief under his father, was shown meeting with foreign ambassadors on state television broadcast. He made no statement and, despite reports he had been wounded in the shooting, appeared uninjured.
The government announcement — after two days of insisting Laurent Kabila was wounded but alive — shed little light on the president's death.

Lab to promote online learning
By Cynthia Malakasis
Kansan staff writer
writer@kansan.com
Two research centers at the University of Kansas are joining forces to set up a new research and development laboratory.
The main objective of the e-Learning Design Lab, a joint project of the Center for Research on Learning and the Information and Telecommunications Technology Center, is to explore ways of using new technology for educational purposes.
"The driving purpose behind the new lab is to combine technology with the educational side of online training, such as computer-based training and online courses," said Scott Hinton, co-director of the program and chairman of the electrical engineering and computer science departments.
The new lab will provide research opportunities for students and professionals whose research involves online learning. It will be comprised of faculty from the electrical engineering, computer science, special education and teaching and leadership departments.
Ed Meyen, co-director of the program and professor of special education, said that one of the most important aspects of the lab was the combination of forces behind it.
"We're bringing together a group with learning and teaching experience and a group with extensive background in technology," he said. "I think that makes for a great partnership."
Hinton said there were several projects already in progress. The online academy, which he directs, is developing Web-based educational modules that focus on preparing teachers to work effectively with students with disabilities.
Another project is a high school proficiency exam that seeks to train prospective students who must demonstrate computer proficiency before being admitted to the University.
The lab is located at the Dole Human Development Center. It is financed by already existing research grants, but its founders are also hoping for more government and private research grants in the next two or three years.

Downtown water main break closes street
A water main burst near the intersection of 10th and Massachusetts streets at 7:30 p.m. yesterday. Lawrence police closed a section of the street for more than four hours while the city's department of utilities cleared Massachusetts Street of rushing water.
Utilities supervisor Kevin
Barr said nearly four inches of water had covered the street between 10th and 11th streets when the main first broke.
"We're not sure yet why it broke, but the water could have been leaking somewhere up the street before it came up," he said.
Barr said this was the first
time that section of the main had broken since it was originally laid in 1886.
Utilities system operator Jim Goodwin said the dry and cold weather may have caused the ground to shift and the main eventually to break.
The department of utilities replaced entire sections of water
mains on Massachusetts Street during the past few months, including a section near Eighth Street just two days ago. Goodwin said.
"Mass Street will never fully close, so we have to replace them section by section," he said.

Education faculty study technology

Kansan staff writer
School of Education faculty will explore methods to bring technology into the classroom at a Brown Bag Technology Demonstration today.
The luncheon demonstrations, which will be at 11 a.m. in Joseph R. Pearson Hall, will focus on digital cameras, computer microscopes and Cassiopeia and Palm personal digital assistance. The Blackboard online course information service will also be demonstrated.
Bryan Newberry, project coordinator, said the purpose of the demonstration would be to show faculty the role technology can play in a classroom.
"We're trying to introduce faculty members to how technology can be integrated into their classroom environment," he said.
Newberry said it was important for University of Kansas faculty to use the technology in the classrooms so future teachers would be open to using technology in their classrooms.
"We believe very strongly that the next generation of teachers, those students who are in the School of Education right now, will be strongly influenced by positive examples of technology use that they have exposure to in their classes," he said.
Susan Zvacek, director for Instructional Development and Support, said most University professors want to use technology in the classroom but some'

times struggle to find the time.
"I think the biggest problem is finding the time to create and develop the materials," she said.
"They really see the potential to extend the classroom beyond, say, Monday, Wednesday and Friday classes," she said.
Zvacek, who will help explain Blackboard, said the technology used in classrooms ranges from videotape and slides to the Internet and streaming media.
Doug Houston, professor of business, uses Internet downloads to supplement his courses. He said teachers should use what they like and feel comfortable with.
Zvacek said most professors see technology as a way to expand the classroom.
Shc said Blackboard had been used in a variety of ways, including practices, quizzes, tests and class discussions. It is also used to post notes and handouts.
George Crawford, associate professor of education, said he does not use technology in his classes because the discussion-based classes he teaches are hindered by technology.
"I use very little technology in my classroom," he said. "It's primarily because of content and the approach I use."
Today's program is sponsored by Learning Generation, a federally-funded project under the PT 3 initiative, which stands for "Preparing Tomorrow's Teachers to Teach."
The three-year grant from the U.S. Department of Education is in its second year.
Three arrested in park suspected in area car thefts, robberies
The past two days were no walk in the park, literally, for a Lawrence man, a Topeka woman and a transient.

All three were arrested Wednesday after officers approached them in Burcham Park, which borders the Kansas River near Second Street, said Sgt.
Mike Patrick of the Lawrence Police Department.
He said two of the three fled in a stolen '84 Dodge Ram van with an illegal tag, eluding police until they pulled over at Eighth and Indiana streets. The vehicle's driver, Sheryl Elaine Bayless, of Topeka, was booked into the Douglas County Jail Wednesday afternoon for possession of crack, fleeing or eluding a law enforcement officer, reckless driving and possession of stolen
property. The passenger, Jesse Wayne Remby, who has no permanent address, was arrested on two warrants for failure to comply.
Remby was released from jail shortly after 8 a.m. yesterday.
Monte Reed Dolan, a 38-year-old Lawrence resident, who remained at the park when his companions left, is accused of stealing a University of Kansas student's car, damaging a door and door jamb while attempting to break into a
student's residence and burglarizing a Lawrence man's residence, said Bethany Daniels, assistant district attorney.
Dolan was charged yesterday with one felony count each of aggravated burglary, theft, aggravated assault, attempted burglary and criminal possession of a firearm. He was also charged with a misdemeanor count of criminal damage.
Lawrence police reports showed
the events started Monday.
A female student reported her Honda Civic was stolen Monday from the 500 block of Florida Street, and another female student reported that her front door and door jamb were damaged in an attempted burglary Monday in the 400 block of Michigan Street, Lawrence police said.
Patrick said a 49-year-old Lawrence resident discovered a man in his residence when he
returned home Wednesday night in the 400 block of Florida Street. Patrick said the suspect pointed a gun at the resident before leaving with the resident's Ruger.22 caliber pistol, leather holster and hunting knife.
Dolan and Bayless remained in jail yesterday, because neither had enough money to post bail. Dolan's bond was set at $8,500, and Bayless' bond was $2,500.

Fraternity honors civil rights leader with campus vigil
By Danny Phillips writer@kansan.com Kanson staff writer
Christopher Haydel hopes his fraternity's annual candlelight vigil to honor Martin Luther King Jr. this afternoon will draw a good crowd.
"It's kind of important for us to have a good turnout for this," said Haydel, Alpha Phi Alpha president and Philadelphia senior.
Haydel said he was expecting at least 50 people to attend
The vigil will begin at 3:30 p.m. in front of Wescoe Hall with several of the fraternity members sharing thoughts about what King's legacy means to them. The civil rights leader was an Alpha Phi Alpha member at Morehouse College in Atlanta.
The group will then proceed to Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union

Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity is planning a candlelight vigil at 3:30 this afternoon in front of Wescoe Hall. It will proceed to Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
to march to the student union as a symbol of his marches in the "80s." Haydel said.
A yet-to-be-announced keynote speaker will address the participants in the auditorium, said Robert Page, interim director for the Office of Multicultural Affairs.
"His teachings should be as strong as they were back in the '60s," Haydel said. "I feel the whole civil rights movement has kind of died. It's in a lag stage."
The University's Inspirational Gospel Voices will perform a few songs afterward. Haydel said. The fraternity's vigil is traditionally scheduled on the first Friday of classes after the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday so that students have a chance to attend the ceremony, Haydel said.
Haydel said that in previous years, he spoke about what King's teachings meant and applied them to all races.
Fraternity member Alfred Harris, Kansas City, Mo., senior, said he agreed the movement lacked the energy it did 40 years ago, but he didn't believe it was gone.
"The awareness is there," Harris said, "But the passion isn't as strong."

Students worried about fate of family farms
Continued from page 1A
said he wants to return to the country some day, possibly to make farming a pastime. No matter what, the family farm maintains a place in his heart.
"Ideally, it will be in the family for as long as there is a family." Clary said.
Carissa Wheat, Allen junior, has similarly mixed feelings. Wheat grew up as her "dad's tomboy," working summers on the family ranch. But the cattle market declined in recent years, and her parents encouraged their three daughters to obtain college degrees and do something different with their lives.
"It makes me really sad to think that all I knew as a child could be gone some day, or be completely different to me." Wheat said.
Bill Wood, Douglas County Extension Agriculture Agent, acknowledged the difficulties farmers face. He cited corporate farming as the main threat to family operations, but doesn't think the outlook should be so bleak.
Wheat, a communications studies major, said she probably won't take the risk involved in being one of those farm managers, but she's proud of her roots and glad for the work ethic she feels she gained from her agricultural upbringing.
"While we have considerably fewer family farms than 20 or even 10 years ago, I think we'll have them for some time," Wood said. "There will be exceptionally good farm managers who will be able to compete with the corporations."
you had to work with your hands — hard labor," Wheat said. "People who have never done that just don't know."
Smith agrees that, while she might not be plowing a field any time soon, she wouldn't trade her history on the farm and the values it instilled in her.
"It can only benefit me, and it connects me," Smith said. "Every time I meet someone who grew up on a farm, we're instantly bonded."
Clary feels the roots of such bonds on a deep level.
"Once you become a farmer, it kind of gets into your blood," Clary said.
But that just makes his decision to pursue another career all the more difficult.
"These days," Clary said, "it really seems like farmers almost don't have a shot."
Clary roils rusty barbed wire from a fence that was replaced by a stronger metal barrier. "This isn't my favorite aspect of farm work, but it needs to be done," the Ft. Scott native said. Photo by Thad Allender/KANSAN

Answer Person tackles typical college woes
Tired? Depressed? Wondering why you even bothered going into this "college thing?"
Let Mr. College Answer Person help. While Mr. College Answer Person is not qualified by any legitimate agency to perform his task, many students (requesting anonymity) swear by his services.
Q: I am tired and depressed. I'm even wondering why I bothered going into this "college thing." What should I do?
A: Do what the best American college students do in times of stress: Drink. Ha ha, Mr. College Answer Person hopes you realize that was a little joke. In no way does he endorse the consumption of mind-altering beverages to alleviate mental anguish. He recommends you begin taking drugs
instead. Ha, ha, he didn't mean that either.
Q: How should I study for a test? I don't think of myself as that bright, and I need to do well.
A: Some people might tell you to review your notes of class lectures and discussions and skim your past readings.
Mr. College Answer Person, however, recommends you give teachers hefty bribes in return for good grades. Tests, in his opinion, are for people not smart

enough to find a way out of them
enough to find a way out of them. Mr. College Answer Person has often used the bribery method described above himself. That was the reason he spent five years in a place known as the "Leavenworth Correction Facility."
Q: What kind of clothes should I wear to "fit in" on campus? I'm nervous that people might not like me.
A: You are right to be nervous about rejection by your peers. After all, it's well known that judgmental and shallow people make the best friends.
Best case scenario: Find someone whose look you like (but isn't "weird" or "strange") and copy their clothing. In this way — through imitation and denial of self-expression — you'll be sure to fit in anywhere.
Q: My roommate plays loud, annoying music at all hours of the day. He won't turn his tacky tunes down, no matter how nicely I ask. Help me!
A: You should acquire annoying music tastes of your own. If possible, buy a large number of opera CDs. These should not be recordings of melodic operas, from the age when people actually enjoyed that sort of thing.
whenever your roommate starts blasting his music, retailate by playing the "There's a Wart on My Big Toe" aria from the Phillip Glass Disfigurements of My Body Opera for soprano and kazoo ensemble.
Within minutes, your friend will beg you for mercy.
Q: Lately, I've been ignoring my studies and playing video games all day. While I know next to nothing about Latvian-Belgo-Croat culture (my major), I have very high scores in PacMan. What's your advice?
A: Your taste in video games is behind the times. While a good go-round of *PacMan* is always stimulating, video games have developed considerably.
There is a wide array of high-quality games available on CD-ROM, the Internet or one of the higher-end Nintendo or Playstation systems. Mr. College Answer Person recommends you avail yourself to one of these amusement resources. As far as your major goes, he suggests you improvise freely on tests and assignments.
Q: Finally, what's the meaning of life?
A: If you have to ask, you're not ready to know.
Q: Come on, tell me!
A: Mr. College Answer Person is rapidly running out of space, and is therefore unable to respond to this question with the length and subtlety it reserves.
If you feel generous, though, and want to send him several large, unmarked bills, he will consider revealing the answer to you personally at a later date.

Hate crime laws put freedom in jeopardy
Taking a break from shamelessly celebrating vile, gay-bashing, misogynistic lowlifes such as Eminem, MTV last week unveiled a documentary about the murder of Matthew
Shepard, accompanied by 18 commercial-free hours devoted to raising awareness about hate crimes.
This might have been done to appease the professional protesters in the gay rights movement, battle-hardened by their campaign to silence Dr. Laura. The same protesters have been voicing opposition to the network's love affair with Eminem. But whatever the motivation, MTV's project was well done and thought-provoking, and for

Proponents of hate crime laws seek to impose extra penalties, such as longer sentences and bigger fines, for criminals whose offences are supposedly motivated by hatred for homosexuals, racial minorities and women. The message is that crimes against people based upon their sex, skin color or sexual orientation are particularly heinous. Thus, society must punish these perpetrators more harshly in the hope of someday eliminating prejudice and hate. This is a commendable goal but a terrible solution.
our purposes, it presents an opportunity to explain why hate crime legislation is a bad idea
Racism and homophobia are distasteful, but we must understand that there is a huge difference between hating someone and acting on that hatred, just as there is quite a gap between wanting to rob a bank and actually robbing it. You
can punish the act, but you can't punish the thought — that's called freedom of speech.
Furthermore, the phrase "hate crime" is problematic. One could easily argue that all crimes are hate crimes because criminals display hatred and contempt for our nation's laws. Why should hatred of gays be worse than hatred of civilized, law-abiding people in general?
Supporters of hate crime laws want to punish both by increasing perpetrators' sentences based on why they committed the crime. Beat up and rob a wealthy, heterosexual man to buy drugs, get five years in jail; beat up and rob a wealthy, homosexual man because you hate gays, get six or seven?
It sends a disturbing message that some lives are more worthy of protection. This is un-American, because here everyone is guaranteed equal protection under the law. Giving certain groups of people extra legal protections won't result in a safer, more tolerant society; it will increase already existing divisions, fuel resentments and harden prejudices.
Our goal, I think, should be to hold all lives equally precious, no one being more or less worthy of protection. I'm all for increasing criminal penalties, keeping violent felons in jail longer, and sending a forceful, unambiguous message that law-abiding Americans hate crime — not that we hate some robberies, some assaults and some murders more than others.
Hate crime laws also seldom, if ever, punish racially motivated crimes against the majority. Should we assume that these serious crimes are less monstrous than suggested hate crimes?

Editorial
Refund process obsolete
The University should make it easier for students to pick up checks.
The University of Kansas is the only Big 12 school where students must stand in line to receive refund checks. Direct deposit should be an option for students to streamline excessive waiting during Financial Aid Scholarship distribution.
Check distribution was Friday from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on the fifth floor of the Kansas Union. By 9 a.m., the line already overflowed through the fourth level, and down to the third. Thankfully, the doors opened early in attempt to offset the line, which eventually tapered off.
But not all students could pick up their checks Friday. What about those whose schedules did not accommodate the set distribution time? Beginning Tuesday, refund checks were available to students in Carruth O'Leary Hall. However, the problem with the dates and times of refund pick-up is that students must inevitably wait in line to receive their refunds.
The line at the Union was so bad Tuesday that a group of students stood near the front of the line, protesting the current system. They asked the students in line to sign a petition that would make direct deposit an option for students.
Victor Torres, bursar from general accounting in the comptroller's office, is responsible for how refunds are distributed to students.
"Direct deposit will be an option available to students for future semesters," Torres said. "It would have been made available this semester, but we fell behind schedule."
Direct deposit would not increase paperwork for payroll, Torres said, and therefore is a viable solution for students and administrators.
Texas A&M, Texas Tech and the University of Nebraska mail refund checks to their students, keeping them from waiting in line. All other Big 12 schools offer direct deposit as an option.
The University needs to make sure it follows through with its promise and implements a direct deposit option as soon as possible, so students no longer have to wait in line.

DJs showcase talent at competition
Local disc jockeys spin for audience pleasure of music
That Guy Downstairs, winner of the second KJHK DJ Battle, lays out a high-speed scratch during the semifinal round of competition. About 300 people attended the contest Wednesday night at Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St., that kicked off a new semester for the student-run radio station. Photo by Nick Krug/KANSAN

Kansas staff writer
The beat of the music throbs in the dark hall. Entralled audience members bob their heads and stand on their hands. The beat changes, changes again, and the revelers smile at the source of the sounds: the DJ.
Disc jockey Vex 1 hovers above a pair of turntables, shifting his own body as he shifts the sounds on his records. The beat thumps with great force, but Vex 1 touches the rotating vinyl with careful grace. He spins for a crowd, and he spins for his own happiness.
"It's a way to focus your energy." Vex 1, or Joel Bogart, said Wednesday at the second annual KJHK DJ Battle at Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St.
Bogart, Tonganoxie junior,
said he had been a huge music
fan since childhood. His listening
experiences in the early '90s
— "pivotal years in hip hop" —
changed his life.
"Then I just turned into a participant." he said.
Vex 1 said he drew from his knowledge of and admiration for music when he scratched, incorporating musical genres from hip to jazz. But you probably won't find Britney Spears or the Backstreet Boys among his albums. One of Vex 1's missions is to expose people to songs beyond radio hits.
"There's a lot of good music out there," he said. "But folks these days are so used to hearing bull; it's like a blessing to be able to
do this for them."
That Guy Downstairs, who won the DJ battle for a second year, also enjoys communicating through the turntables.
"I try to incorporate lessons in my music," he said.
That Guy, an area DJ who did not reveal his real name, pointed out that his greatest enjoyment came with or without lookers.
"It's all about me and the records," he said. "I'm not concerned with impressing the audience."
DJ Proof, or Ian Sotomayor
spins at Club Life in Kansas City. He agrees that a DJ's experience transcends the element of performance.
"My way of DJ-ing is almost a religion," Proof said. "I wake up with it, and I go to bed with it."
Proof, who moved to Lawrence in 1998 for its artistic opportunities, went from scratching on his mom's turntable to opening for big acts like DJ Craze and competing in the national DMC DJ Contest. He said success as a DJ wasn't easy. Proof said he used focus and determination to face
obstacles like learning timing and overcoming his Midwest background.
"I didn't want them to be like,
'He's good, from Kansas.' " he said. "I wanted them to be like,
'He's good.' "
But Proof would still scratch without the acclaim. Everything comes back to the music.
"You take something basic and take it 10 or 20 steps further and make it sound however you want," he said. "That is the most amazing thing."

or some people, a new year is symbolic; it's a chance for a fresh start.
Some begin the new year with good intentions, and resolutions run the gamut, from getting in shape to kicking bad habits to volunteering. Some resolutions last for a few months, and others are kept longer.
Sean Blevything, Hutchinson senior, was inspired when he brought in the new year in Durango, Colo., where he did a climbing and hiking. This lead to his New Year's resolution: "To make Kansas more cool."
"There's probably things outdoors that you can do that you never think about doing," Bleything said. "But if you look for them, you can find them."
Keeping his resolution would be a challenge, he said, because Kansas does not have a lot of public land. It forces Blethking to be more creative, especially during the winter. He relies on word-of-mouth information to learn about fun outdoor activities. Last week he went hiking along the Tuttle Creek Reservoir by Manhattan, and plans to go biking along the Kansas River soon.
COMIC BROS
Blethy usually does not make New Year's resolutions, and the ones he did make were usually common, such as getting in shape. But he is certain he'll keep this resolution as long as he lives in Kansas.
"I'm going to the Grand Canyon for spring break, so
"be in the way I'm going to get in shape," he said.
New Year's motivated Jason Schmanek, Wichita freshman, to resolve to pick a major this semester, preferably before enrollment for next semester. He has considered pre-medicine history, philosophy, anthropology and psychology
Melvern senior Amanda Tyson's resolutions included making at least one person smile each day and doing something nice for herself every day, such as listening to soothing music in the car or eating a Twix. Photo illustration by Matt Daugherty/KANSAN
go through stages.
Schankane said.
"Every couple of weeks I'll pick a major, then decide to do something else.
thinking about doing history and pre-med. I'm pretty sure that's what I'm going to be doing right now."
Amanda Tyson, Malvern senior, made some unique New Year's resolutions. She resolved to make at least one person smile each day, do something nice for herself every day and volunteer twice a month. So far she's kept all her resolutions.
Being kind to others comes easily, but sometimes being kind to yourself is difficult. Tyson said.
She calls little things like taking the time to eat a good breakfast when she's in a hurry, listening to soothing music in the car or eating a peanut butter Twix a reality check
"It's a reminder that good things do happen," she said. "Sometimes you have to make them happen."

More Information
Some students, such as Meredith Thompson, focus their resolutions on health. The Leawood junior is among those who resolved to quit smoking. She started cutting back in November. Instead of buying her own cigarettes, she'd burn one off a friend. She used to smoke four or five cigarettes a day, but now she's down to one.
Some people enlist the support of friends and family, or put money in a jar any time they fail to fulfill their resolutions. Thompson said she relied on her own willpower, rather than perks or negative reinforcement.
"if I want to do something, I do it," Thompson said. "I don't normally keep resolutions, but it's not really a resolution, just something I wanted to do. If someone wants to do something, they need to decide to do it regardless of whether it's the new year or Easter or whatever."
Michael Rosseler, Webster Groves, Mo., graduate student,
agrees that goals can be set anytime. A runner, he resolved
to run two miles a day last year, but fell short of his goal. Because of back problems, he missed six days. But aside from running quotas, Roessler avoids making resolutions.
"A few years ago I made a resolution not to make New Year's resolutions," he said. "It seems like too many people make New Year's resolutions."
Molly Hand, Lake Forest, Ill., senior, usually avoids resolutions as well. But this year she decided to drink more water, exercise and eat right. Her resolution stemmed from being tired and dehydrated.
After studying abroad in Ireland last semester, Hand is getting settled in a new apartment. She is optimistic she will keep her resolution because she will be buying and preparing her own meals instead of eating at her sorority house. She also plans to carry a water bottle.
she has plans to make resolutions," Hand said. "And most people — like me — don't fulfill their resolutions. But I think this year will be a monumental year for me."

Following through on your New Year's resolution:
If your resolution is to quit smoking:
Fill out a "stop smoking contract" and have a family member or friend sign it. Throw away all your cigarettes, lighters and ashtrays.
Change your schedule to avoid circumstances in which you usually smoke. Walk around the block or chew gum when you would normally be smoking.
Put up "no smoking" signs in your house, work area and car.
Prepare yourself to feel the urge to start smoking again.
- Carry around candy, gum, straws and carrot sticks to help keep your mouth busy.
Reward yourself for quitting; take the money you might have spent on cigarettes, and buy yourself something nice.
If your resolution is to pick a major:
Get a list of courses to see what interests you. Ask students majoring in these subjects if they are satisfied with their programs and professors.
Consider the requirements for any potential majors. Find out whether they can be completed in four years or if they require graduate studies, and consider whether you would be willing to spend the necessary time and money.
Try to find a major that will offer flexibility when you are looking for a job.
Think about the growth of the field that interests you. Is it expanding? Are graduates with your major being hired right out of college or do they need additional training?
Contemplate the earning potential of jobs that are related to certain majors. Think of the lifestyle you would like to maintain and how certain salaries may affect it.
Figure out what it is you love to do. Are there fields of study that spark your interest, or have you taken courses that you particularly enjoyed?
Try a double major or minor if you are having trouble narrowing down
your fields of interest.

Collison fires up Jayhawks
Sophomore forward Nick Collison prepares to go up for a shot while being guarded by the Nebraska defense. The Jayhawks will play Texas A&M at 3 p.m. tomorrow in Allen Fieldhouse.

There's this crazy little routine that Nick Collison has found himself in lately.
Lavup. lavup. dunk.
He won't be surprised if the trend continues tomorrow when No. 5 Kansas (14-1 overall, 3-0 in the Big 12) takes on Texas &M (6-10, 0-4) at 3 p.m. tomorrow in Allen Fieldhouse.
The Jayhawks are riding a seven-game winning streak that began against DePaul when Collison, a sophomore forward, broke out of his early season funk. When he's been on a tear, so has Kansas.
"I really want the ball in there all the time and when I get it I feel like I'm going to score," Collison said. "Most of my shots have been layups and I normally make those kind of shots. If I keep getting the ball in those spots then I think I'm going to be successful."
Collison's partner in the post, sophomore forward Drew Gooden, has also been an integral part of Kansas' success this season. He had 17 points and five rebounds against Nebraska, but it was how he scored that made the biggest impact.
His four dunks, two of which opened the second half, provided an emotional spark that helped fuel the Jayhawks' dominant performance. Williams said Gooden's maturity during the course of the season would need to show against A&M, a team that doesn't have nearly the size inside that Kansas has.
"He was fantastic in the first half and early in the second half," Williams said. "He's really matured. He's working harder in practice each and every day."
Despite the dominant performance of the young forwards, Williams said he wasn't satisfied with his team's 84-62 win; he expects more tomorrow.
"I hope that I don't see too many halves where a team shoots 50 percent against us," Williams said of Nebraska's second-half effort. "I remember three different times in the second half where they got offensive rebounds and put it back in.

"We didn't get to the shooter. We need to get in good position and box people out."
Williams also was not pleased with his team's 23 fouls. Senior center Eric Chenowith fouled out; Collison and sophomore point guard Kirk Hinrich added four a piece. Williams said that his team needed to start being smarter on defense as the conference season continued to unfold.
"We've got to play defense without fouling." Williams said. "We shouldn't be having the fouls on boxing out and trying to fight for position inside because if you use your tail and your feet then you're not going to make a mistake."
To be fair, the defense clearly isn't playing bad. It was actually pretty good for most of Wednesday's game, with some stats that Williams would like to see continue. The Jayhawks had eight steals, including two each by Collison, Chenowith and freshman guard Mario Kinsey. The 'Hawks also blocked nine shots, six by Collison.
Kansas will need to get defensive against Aggie sophomore guard Bernard King, who averages 17.5 points a game and was the Big 12 Freshman of the Year last season. Hinrich and junior guard Jeff Boschee will handle those duties, while Gooden, Collison and Chenwith will try to take care of business in the paint and on center Keith Bean.
Kansas basketball notes:
At 3-0 in Big 12 Conference play, Kansas is the only undefeated team in the conference. Collison said the team's not thinking of a championship yet, though. "It's great; we're on top right now," Collison said. "But a couple teams stubbed their toes a bit the (last few)
nights. We've just got to be ready to play every single night."
Williams gave some extra love to the Kansas fans for their support at the conference home opener.
"Classes just started and everybody's trying to get back in the swing of things."
Williams said. "Our crowd has been unbelievable this year. Even when we had a stretch of games where we weren't playing household names this place has been rockin' all year."
X-rays did reveal a small chip fracture in Eric Chenowith's nose, which
means it is broken.
Chenowith took an elbow to the face Wednesday night in Kansas' 84-62 victory against Nebraska. He will not wear a mask, miss any practice or miss any game time because of the injury.

This season's lesson: no need to fear change
I have a confession: I'm kind of wussy.
Not in the Jeff Van Gundy ankle bracelet/human punching bag kind of way, but in that I fear change. Not that it gives me many restless nights — my addiction to MTV's Undressed does that for me — but it does make me wonder about my pansy nature.
The number six plain from Wendy's; the number two with only ketchup from McDonald's; chocolate pancakes from IHOP. I always order the same food wherever I venture.
It's like a bad relationship — you can't break the cycle, but need to.
If this sports season has taught me anything, it's that change can be a good thing.
I wasn't exactly jumping up and down when the White Sox traded young pitcher Mike Sirotka and a host of others to the Blue Jays for an overweight 38-year-old David Wells. The virile Sirotka has a lower ERA and probably won't keel on over the mound anytime soon.
And mega-millionaire Tiger Woods' new lighter hair shade didn't make me want to find out if blonds really do have more fun. Venus Williams' new revealing outfit gave me the shivers, too.
That made me reconsider the whole new wild persona.
That made me reconsider the whole thing. But then there's the underdog New York Giants and that old Penguin (not the one at the basketball games) Mario Lemieux.
Tons of money was probably lost in Vegas when the Giants (yes, the same team that went 7-9 last season) were named National Football Conference champs. Maybe there's hope for the Bears after all.
Giants quarterback Kerry Collins still pulled a 360 since being arrested for his drunk-driving stint while with Carolina. He demolished the polished Minnesota Vikings and their cocky star, wide receiver Randy Moss, 41-0.
I have to admit that did bring a smile to my face — see, change is good.
And after a four-year hiatus, owner-player Lemieux has returned with a fury, scoring 21 points in only 10 games back on the ice. The 35-year-old came back when most athletes decide to get out and play host to talk shows, but that didn't work so well for Magic. The first round 1984 draft pick by Pittsburgh, who has been the driving force behind the Penguins since returning, was selected to the North American All-Star team. That's good right?
So maybe I should be more daring — I can order that new McRib or maybe even an omelet next time. Just don't expect me to be cheering for the Pacers anytime soon.

Rivalry resumes for runners

As the Kansas track and field team prepares for the Missouri Invitational today, many of the Jayhawks realize that there are few things better than winning an event against a certain school that dons black and gold.
Although the open invitational meet in Columbia, Mo., drew a cache of strong track programs, including Indiana State, Southwest Missouri State, Oral Roberts and Tulsa, Missouri is the school that makes Kansas' blood bubble.
"We are looking forward to competing this weekend, and our athletes are excited and ready to go." Redwine said. "As our coaching staff starts to feel more and more like Jayhawks, we look forward to renewing the rivalry between some of the Big 12 schools, especially Missouri."
First-year coach Stanley Redwine said his coaching staff has gained respect for a rivalry that has burned for years among the Javahawk faithful.
Senior sprinter Jabari Wamble, who won the 200-meter event at Missouri Southern last weekend, said he was expecting stiff competition to be in Columbia this weekend.
"I imagine that it will be tougher competition since it is at Missouri," he said.
Redwine said the upcoming meet should serve as another stepping stone in the Javhawks' young season.
"Our goal is to get better every day and every week," he said. "And this meet will show us where we are now."
Senior All-American Scott Russell said
the fact that Kansas was going against Mizzou was not lost on him.
Kansas will travel back to MU Friday, Jan. 26, for a triangular meet with Kansas State and the Tigers.
"We are always out there to beat our archrivals," Russell said. "The fact that we have a strong rivalry is special."
While Russell has already qualified for
the NCAA Weight Throw competition in March, he wants to work on improving certain aspects of his performance in the event.
"Now that I have the standard for the NCAA, I can just take one meet at a time and work on things that I need to improve," he said.

Tomorrow's match-up against Colorado is all about bouncing back for the Kansas women's basketball team — bouncing back and getting better.
The Jayhawks (7-8, 1-3) tip off against Colorado (12-3, 3-1) at 8 p.m. tomorrow at Coors Events/Conference Center in Boulder, Colo. "The one thing about this team is that they have not rolled over and given up," said coach Marian Washington. "We certainly have a long season yet. We've just got to keep trying to get better."
Coming off a disappointing loss to the Oklahoma State Cowgirls (9-7, 1-4), the Jayhawks tip off against the Buffaloes, who are on a three-game winning streak, looking to improve a record they've seen fall from 6-2 to 7-8 overall.
"One thing that's nice about this conference is that you don't get a lot of time to lick your wounds," said senior guard Jennifer Jackson. "You have to come back the next day

and play hard, and that's true whether you win or lose."
Colorado averages 42.5 percent per game and brings seven players six-foot or taller. Because rebounding and overall play in the paint have been areas of concern for Kansas — Oklahoma State outbounded the Hawks 43-30 and outscored Kansas 32-20 in the paint — the Jayhawks hope to clog the lane against the Buffaloes.
"We've got to come out against Colorado on Saturday and do a better job on the rebounding, or we're going to have the same situation after every game," Jackson said after the loss to the Cowgirls.
Guard play will also be a

Royals keep Sweeney; Oakland steals Damon
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Even in the midst of intense contract negotiations this week, Kansas City Royals' first baseman Mike Sweeney knew that when it was all done, he'd be a happy man.

And that he'd use a Reyna. Sweeney's predictions held up yesterday when the club announced it had reached a two-year deal with the All-Star first baseman, avoiding arbitration. Terms of the contract were not disclosed.
Sweeney set a club record last season with 144 RBI — second in the American League — and hit .333 with 29 home runs. He was selected to the American League All-Star team. His base salary last year

Sweeney's signing offers fans hope that the small-market Royals might retain a core of talented young players despite baseball's wildy escalating salary structure.
The Royals also still have four players eligible for salary arbitration — pitcher Brian Meadows and Jeff Suppan, infielder Dave McCarty and catcher Gregg Zaun.
Outfielder Johnny Damon, rejecting all offers and expecting to become a free agent after next year, was traced to Oakland last week. Still in the fold under contract are talented young players such as third baseman Joe Randa, pitcher Jose Rosado and All-Star outfielder Jermaine Dye.

SEATTLE — Gary Payton, the Seattle SuperSonics' 'All-Star guard, was suspended yesterday for a minimum of one game for conduct detrimental to the team.
Sonics suspend Payton after confrontation
NBA
Team president and general manager Wally Walker announced the suspension, but gave no further details.
Payton and teammate Ruben Patterson had an angry confrontation
during a fourth quarter timeout in Wednesday night's 89-80 home loss against Phoenix.
"To light amongst ourselves is the wrong thing to do." The Seattle Times quoted coach Nate McMillan as saying after the game. "Tempers did fiv. That can't happen."

Patterson declined to discuss the problem after the game and Payton was not available.
Payton was suspended earlier this season after a confrontation with then-coach Westpal in the huddle Nov. 21 at Dallas.

"You play, I'll coach," Westphal told Payton.
Walker announced the next day that Payton was suspended for the Sonics' game that night at San Antonio. Payton met with Westphal, apologized and the suspension was lifted.
The emotional Payton had to be separated from his coach on the court. Afterward, he verbally ripped into Westphal to reporters.
Five days later, the Sonics fired Westphal and replaced him with the popular McMilian, a

former Seattle player and assistant. Payton is an 11-year veteran and six time All-Star who is the team's career scoring leader. He often has clashed with teammates and coaches.
He was involved in a much-publicized weight-room brawl last season with former teammate Vernon Maxwell. Horace Grant was injured in that scuffle, reportedly by a thrown weight.
The Sonics' next game is at home against Minnesota tonight.

Position: Guard
Height: 5-foot-10-inches
Hometown: Tuscaloosa, Ala.

The semester's first Kansan Player of the week honor goes to Jayhawk guard Jennifer Jackson. The Alabama native had an all-time average of 7.2 points before Saturday's game

career-high 17 attempts against the Wildcats as well. She had a repeat performance against Oklahoma State when she shot 9-for-17 against the Cowgirls, and scored her 900th point (she needs 94 more to reach the 1,000 point milestone).
Jackson also had four steals against the Wildcats, along with five assists. A team captain, she needs four assists to
move to fourth all-time in that category at Kansas. Jackson was all-Big 12 honorable mention selection last year and has started 106 of 107 games. She was not in the starting lineup last year to make room for five senior starters during Senior Night.
Honorable mention:
- Track senior Scott Russell qualified for the NCAA Indoor Championship last Saturday in the weight throw. Russell's 72-2 1/4 heave reserved his place at the NCAAs.
Senior forward Kenny Gregory had 34 points, 22 rebounds and five assists against Oklahoma and Nebraska.
Sophomore forward Nick Collison had 28 points, 11 rebounds, eight blocks and four steels in the same two games.

A&M a threat to Kansas backcourt
By Zac Hunter sports @kanson.com
Kansas sportwriter
It would be easy for No. 5 Kansas to overlook Texas A&M.
The Aggies (6-1 overall and 0-4 in the Big 12 Conference) haven't finished better than eighth in the conference and haven't been to the NCAA tournament since 1887. Despite that, the Jayhawks are still wary of the Aggies going into their game at 3 p.m. tomorrow in Allen Fieldhouse.
"We're a Top 5 team, so a lot of people are going to be coming at us," said Kansas sophomore forward Drew Gooden. "Everybody's coming at us because we're the big dogs in the conference, so we just need to keep our composure throughout the whole year."
Kansas State's 80-59 paddling of No. 20 Missouri was a wake-up call for the rest of the conference that
"I thought it was a misprint. I didn't think Kansas State would beat Missouri like that," Gooden said.
any team can win at any time.
Kansas coach Roy Williams also said he was surprised by the Missouri loss, but, in a way, he
might have expected it.
ATM
"In this league you've got to be ready to play every single night.
regardless of where the game is." Williams said. "I think the league is very competitive, and I think it will go down to the wire."
However, Texas A&M comes to Lawrence on a down note. After leading No. 24 Texas 34-28 at half-time, the Aggies watched Texas go on a 26-7 run late in the game that spoiled their chances for an upset Wednesday night.
The one highlight for Texas A&M is last season's Big 12 freshman of the year, Bernard King. This year, King is fourth in the Big 12 in scoring, averaging more than 17 points, and will pose a serious threat to the Kansas backcourt, much like Nebraska guard Cookie Belcher did on Wednesday.
The Jayhawks held Belcher to just 10 points — most of the pressure being applied by senior forward Kenny Gregory, who will most likely be matched up against King. The two are nearly identical in size, and have similar games.
King is a slasher who likes to take the ball at the rim, but he can also step outside and knock down some long-range shots.
King may not be the Aggies' best long-range shooter, but he certainly shoots the most. His 108 three-point attempts are nearly double that of anyone on the Texas A&M squad.
and he is third on the team, hitting 31.5 percent of his three-point shots.
31. 5 percent of his three-point shots. Once again, the Jayhawks will have a distinct advantage in the frontcourt, but Texas A&M freshman Nick Anderson is starting to learn what it's like to play big-time college basketball. The 6-foot-6 forward is averaging nearly 10 points, and he will be tested against the much taller and more experienced Kansas front line
However, size may not be a big problem for him.
"There are times that we think, especially in the high-post area as he flashes there, he has the advantage against the bigger kids," said Texas &M coach Melvin Watkins.
Watkins said the Aggies need Anderson to be more aggressive with the ball, though, and need more scoring production from the forward spots.

Colorado's Nightingale ready for Kansas
By Brandon Stinnett
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
At 12-3, the Colorado women's basketball team has two more wins than it had all of last season.
With a 98-90 victory against Missouri on Sunday, the Buffaloes moved to 3-1 in the Big 12 Conference.
Not too shabby for a team that finished 10-19 a year ago and 4-12 in the Big 12. One key to Colorado's reticent turnaround is the
GU
play of junior guard Mandy Nightingale.
In her third year as a starter, Nightingale has earned respect from her teammates for being a leader on and off the court. She is among the top in most categories and is a player the Buffalooes rely on in tight situations.
"She has a grasp of the competition, how hard
we have to play, a sense of the timing when she runs the offense, and she's emotionally steady," said Colorado coach Ceal Barry of Nightingale. "She's matured a lot over the last two and a half years, I'm confident in her."
Kansas, 7-8 overall and 1-3 in the Big 12, will get a taste of Nightingale at 8 p.m. tomorrow when the Jayhawks take on Colorado in the Coors Event Center in Boulder.
Nightingale is not Colorado's only weapon. In the win against Missouri, five players scored in double figures. Sophomore guard Linda Lappe led the Buffaloes with 22 points, and freshman center Tera Bjorklund added 21.
Barry said a big difference this season was the team's depth. Last year, injuries caught up with the Buffaloes, forcing just seven players to carry the load through most of the season.
Now Barry has 14 players to shuffle in and out of the lineup,keeping the team fresh.It's made a huze difference.
"When we're tired we can go out and get rest
and then come back in and play stronger," Nightingale said.
Barry said Colorado wasn't about to let recent success go to its head. The team realizes that there are games yet to be played.
"It's early in the year, and we have a long season." Barry said.
Kansas is looking for a win after losing on the road to Oklahoma State, 61-53, on Wednesday.
The game's outcome may depend on which Kansas team shows up. The Jayhawks were dominant in a 78-67 win against Kansas State on Saturday, using tenacious defensive pressure to force 29 Wildcat turnovers. But against the Oklahoma State, Kansas looked lethargic. The team committed 26 turnovers and was outplayed in nearly every facet.
Nightingale said she expected a challenge.
Nightingale said she expelled it challenge "I know they're going to want to come out and get a road win," she said. "We're just going to play hard."
Meeting signals beginning of intramural basketball
— Edited by Courtney Craigmile
By Steve Laurenzo sports@kanson.com Kanson sportwriter
The intramural basketball meeting at 7 p.m. Sunday at 252 Robinson starts another spring intramural season. The open meeting is the best chance for team managers to register their squads, receive information about rules and guidelines and ask questions.
With the men's and women's basketball teams entrance into Big 12 Conference play comes a basketball buzzer that fills Lawrence. Each year this inspires many students to showcase their skills on the hardwood in Robinson Center.
Jason Krone, assistant director of recreational services, emphasized the importance of this meeting for interested teams.
"We really encourage coming to this meeting," Krone said. "It gives teams priority when it comes to block scheduling."
Block scheduling sign-ups will be available to registered teams on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Block scheduling is a method that allows the players to pick the day and approximate time they would like to play, rather than recreational services assigning them with both.
The men's league is split into four divisions — greek, residence hall, open and the relatively new "b" division. The women's league consists of the first three from that list. There is no divisional split in the
"This type of scheduling helps to prevent forfeits due to time conflicts," Krone said.
Total cost per team is $30. Women's, men's and co-recreational leagues will play three regular season games and then enter their respective tournaments.
INFO MEETING
■ What: Intramural basketball meeting
When: 7 p.m. Sunday
**Where:** 252 Robinson Center
**Why:** Open meeting is the best chance for team managers to register their squads, receive information about rules and guidelines and ask questions. For questions or information call recreation services at 864-3546.
co-recreational league.
These divisions provide several levels of competition from which interested teams can choose. The "b" division, in effect in the men's league, is for those teams looking for a less-competitive, more laid back season concluding with a final game instead of a tournament.
Rob Voelker, Lincoln, Neb., junior, played in the residence hall division in 1999 and 2000 but will switch to the open league this year.
"I played high school basketball in ninth and 10th grade, but switched to intramurals after that," he said. "It was just more fun."
Rules in all leagues are the same this year, but the officials will be instructed to keep a close eye on certain aspects such as contact in the paint, palming the ball and intentional fouls.
Those interested in working as an official for the league can attend a similar officials' informational meeting following the conclusion of the team managers' meeting. All are welcome to attend, including players.
For information on any of the spring semester intramural activities call recreation services at 864-3546.

Sundance films parrot previous movie success
The Associated Press
PARK CITY, Utah — Some entries in the Sundance Film Festival may sound familiar.
There's a movie about a middle-aged man's relationship with a teen-age girl, but it's not American Beauty. There's a war story about cracking the German U-boat code, only it isn't U-571. There's a tale of a rock journalist profiling a difficult subject, and it's not Almost Famous. And there's Samuel L. Jackson as a trash-talking New Yorker investigating a murder, but his name's not John Shaft.
This year's lineup at Sundance.
industry premiere showcase for independent film, reflects a growing convergence between studio pictures and shoestring movie making.
Just as hits such as *Pulp Fiction* taught studios that indie fare
102345678901
Jackson: stars in The Caveman's Valentine
could turn a big buck, so independent filmmakers have become less snooty, branching beyond the artsy and edgy to incorporate more commercial, mainstream elements in their movies.
"We're seeing a different range of influences. It's not just Bergman and Fellini and Kurosawa," said festival co-director Geoffrey Gilmore. "The work we have in the festival is all over the place. If you look at the films, they seem to be coming from so many different directions."
The 11-day festival opened yesterday with director Christine Lahti's My First Mister, starring Albert Brooks and Leee Sobieski in an unusual romance about an
uptight store manager and a teenage clerk.
In the wake of U-571 comes Enigma, director Michael Apted's spy caper about Allied efforts to crack the U-boat code. Kate Winslet and Dougray Scott star.
Jackson stars as a bellowing, mentally unbalanced man who lives in a cave in New York City and sets out to solve a murder when a body turns up outside his home in The Caveman's Valentine. Studio and independent flicks have become harder to differentiate.
DreamWorks, Steven Spielberg's blockbuster-minded studio, made American Beauty, which had a relatively modest budget and had the risque feel of an indie feature.
The current hit Traffic started as a big-studio film that was dropped by 20th Century Fox and rescued by independent distributor USA Films. The finished product was a hybrid with big-name talent (Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones) but a smaller budget and a gritty feel more akin to the art house than the mall mega-plex.
"For the past eight or nine years, there's been a blurring of how we would define independent films and major studio films," said Amir Malin, president of Artisan Entertainment, which picked up The Blair Witch Project at Sundance two years ago.
Like Almost Famous, director Allison Anders' Sundance entry Things Behind the Sun follows a music writer on a rock assignment.
Anders said the indie-film world had veered into overdone territory a few years back, "elicited genre stuff like white, middle-class boys making films about gangsters, things they don't know anything about or soft, date movies about twenty-somethings, nameless idiots and their dating problems."

VH1 to showcase dark humor series
The Associated Press
The difference, though, is the music.
LOS ANGELES — In the tradition of Tales From the Crypt and Rod Serling's Night Gallery comes an updated version of twisted tales.
Although most of VHI's recent excursions into television movie production have received lukewarm receptions — too much flash, not enough substance the music channel seems to have finally tapped
VHI's Strange Frequency, airing Wednesday at 8 p.m., combines music morality tales with dark humor, offering four short stories that cover different music genres.
— the music channel seems to have finally tapped into what it does best: short, fun music programs.
Don't look for Strange Frequency to make political statements, debate musical expression or ask which genre is better. Rather, it's simply dark and funny. Best of all, we know people are not.
The stories feature John Taylor of Duran Duran fame and actors Judd Nelson (Suddenly Susan and The Breakfast Club). Eri Palladino (ER) and Eric Roberts (Star 80 and Runaway Train).
"It's a cross between a TV movie and a rock video, and it makes an interesting combination. I liked the idea that it was sort of Twilight Zone with a rock 'n' roll edge," said Taylor, who plays opposite Holland Taylor (The Practice) in a segment titled "Room Service."
Taylor plays Jimmy Blitz, a wild rock star back on the road after a decade's hiatus. He wastes little time reclaiming his reputation, trashing hotel rooms and destroying property.
But Blitz's antics are all in a day's work for maid Marge Crowley, who cleans up after the nightly parties.
Angered by the maid's ability to miraculously clean up his mess, Blitz declares war and sets out trying to best the maid. After all, he laments, what good is a trashed room, if evidence simply vanishes the next day.
Taylor assured he didn't draw on personal experience for the role. "I'm such a momma's boy. I used to think it was rebellious to throw a towel on the floor," he said.

Players sign record-setting contracts
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Derek Jeter asked for an $18.5 million, one-year contract on another day for baseball salary records. Yankees teammate Mariano Rivera was right behind with a $10.25 million request.
Sixty-three players exchanged figures with their teams in salary arbitration yesterday. Twenty-seven players agreed to contracts.
Two players eligible for free agency after next season settled on large one-year contracts. Los Angeles pitcher Chan Ho Park agreed at $9.9 million and Oakland outfielder Johnny Damon, acquired from Kansas City last week, agreed to $7.1 million.
Yankees officials and Jeter's agent, Casey Close,seep throughout the day about a multi-year contract and made progress, an anonymous source familiar with the talks said.
With the sides still apart, the Yankees submitted a $14.25 million offer. If the sides don't agree, an arbitrator would pick one figure after a hearing during the first three weeks of February.
.
Most cases settle. Of 90 players who filmed last year, just 10 went to hearings, with owners winning six.
This year, 102 players filed and 12 settled before yesterday.
Last year, Jeter set an arbitration record when he asked for $10.5 million. The Yankees countered at $9.5 million and the sides agreed in the middle.
Rivera, who like Jeter is eligible for free agency after next season, was offered $9 million by the Yankees.
Last year, Rivera and the Yankees wound up before an arbitrator, who chose the team's $7.25 million offer, not the pitcher's $9.25 million request.
Atlanta outfielder Andruw Jones asked for $2.2 million. He was the only other player to ask for more than $5 million.
Atlanta submitted a $6.4 million offer to the center fielder, who made $3.7 million last season.
Jeter and the Yankees had the largest salary difference, a $4.25 million difference. The smallest spread belonged to Scott Hatteberg and the Boston Red Sox. The catcher asked for $1.1 million and the team offered $1 million.
Toronto gave two-year contracts to pitcher Esteban Loaiza ($10.3 million), designated hitter Bada Fuller ($6.5 million), and outfielder Jose Cruz Jr. ($6.3 million).
The Chicago White Sox gave pitcher James Baldwin a $5.95 million, one-year contract and first baseman Paul Konerko a $61 million, two-year deal.
Pitcher Shawn Estes and the San Francisco Giants agreed on a one-year contract worth $4.73 million.
Atlanta reliever Kerry Ligtenberg agreed to a $2.9 million, two-year deal. Teammate John Rocker, eligible for salary arbitration for the first time, asked for a raise from $290,000 to $2.98 million. The Braves
Kerry Wood, the 1998 NL Rookie of the Year who missed the following season because of elbow surgery, asked for a raise from $690,000 to $2.45 million. The Chicago Cubs countered at $1.7 million.
countered at $1.9 million.
Tampa Bay pitcher Esteban Yan requested the smallest amount, $750,000. He was offered $550,000. Oakland pitcher Cory Lidle received the lowest offer, $252,000. He asked for $795,000.
In a trade, the New York Mets got reliever Rick Croushore from the Boston Red Sox.
The Mets sent minor league pitcher Frank Graham and a player to be named to Boston. Croushore, a 30-year-old right-hander, was designated for assignment by the Red Sox on Wednesday when they added David Cone to the roster.
Crusherose began last year with Colorado, going 2-0 despite an 8.74 ERA in six games. Demoted to the minors, he was traded to Boston on July 27, 2001, and went 0-1 with a 5.79 ERA in five games for the Red Sox.
Purdue beats Michigan State after sluggish start to game
The Associated Press
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Katie Douglas scored 15 points as No. 6 Purdue closed the game on an 18-4 run to defeat Michigan State 57-34 last night
The Boilermakers, who haven't lost to the Spartans at home since 1988, put the game away in the final eight
S he re k a Wright's 3-
pointer at the
12:35 mark
gave Purdue
(16-3, 6-0 Big
Ten) a 31-22
lead
PURDUE
Erin Skelly scored two straight baskets to close within five. Wright made a free throw on the next possession, but Abby Salscheider's basket made it 32-28.
That was as close as the Spartans (8-9, 2-4) would get as Purdue went on a 7-0 run. Douglas' free throw pushed the lead to 40-30.
Kelly Komara stole the ball at half-
court and scored a layup, then followed on the next possession with a three-pointer at the 6:05 mark for a 45-30 lead. Purdue's 13-0 run ended on Christie Pung's baskets with 2:23 left.
MERIDIAN STATE
Purdue led 22-15 at the half.
The Boilermakers were sluggish at the outset. They missed seven of their first 11 shots and trailed 11-9 with just less than 10 minutes left. But Douglas' off-balance bank shot tied the score at 11. She sank a free throw and then scored the next six points to stretch the lead to 18-11.
Camille Cooper scored 11 points and Shalicia Hurns had 10 points and eight rebounds for Purdue. Julie Pagel led Michigan State with 10 points.
The Spartans made only six field goals in the first half and shot 30 percent overall.

City declares five canines dangerous
Bv Erin Adamson
The pet was declared a dangerous dog by the City of Lawrence under a revamped ordinance, and Sheahon, a University of Kansas alumna, must either give Miso away, keep her in a cage or put her to sleep.
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Meredith Sheaon must decide the fate of ber.dog Miso.
Owners of dogs that attack or threaten other dogs or people are being held accountable by Lawrence's dangerous dog ordinance. The first dog owners to have court hearings because of the ordinance appeared in court Tuesday.
Sheahon, one of seven dog owners to appear at a Jan. 16 hearing, said she thought her dog was unjustly declared dangerous. She said that when she was walking Miso, a gray husky, her pet got into a fight with another dog.
The City Commission strengthened Lawrence's dog control ordinance in July of 1999 to hold owners of dangerous dogs accountable for their dogs' behavior.
The ordinance went into effect Aug. 1, 1999, said Beth Visoscy, court manager at the Lawrence municipal court. Previously, the ordinance was called the vicious dog ordinance.
The city ordinance defines a dangerous dog as one that threatens or attacks the safety of human beings or domestic animals. If a dog is determined to be dangerous, the owner or keeper must either register and confine the dog, give it to someone who lives outside city limits or have it put to sleep. The alternative is jail time.
The same day the seven dog owners appeared in court for violating the ordinance, the City Commission approved the planning of an off-leash dog park north of the Clinton Lake spillway. The off-leash dog park would offer dogs an opportunity to interact but also would open the possibility of dogs fighting.
Grinstead said the issue of dog attacks could come up at the new off-leash dog park.
Visocsky said the dogs of five of the seven dog owners who appeared at the Jan. 16 hearing were declared dangerous. One case is still pending, and one owner agreed to put the dog to sleep. The five dogs declared dangerous included a basset hound, a husky, a Labrador mix, a pit bull and a Labrador/chow mix.
"I think that it might be a problem," she said. "I think people don't pay attention to what's going on."

Although a dog does not have to have a history of fighting to be declared dangerous, the ordinance is designed, in part, to protect citizens from perpetually violent dogs. The city also maintains a leash law within city limits that requires owners to keep their dogs on a leash at all times. This law also is designed, in part, to protect people from violent dogs.
Sheahan said that she was given 15 days to decide what to do with her dog and that she likely would give Miso away. She said the law was good for keeping violent dogs off the street, but that in her case, a friendly dog was being punished.
Midge Grinstead, director of the Lawrence Humane Society, said she thought the officer on the scene needed the freedom to practice discretion in determining whether the dog was actually dangerous.
Although Grinstead said there was a possibility that a nonviolent dog could be deemed dangerous, she said she thought the ordinance was an important tool in catching owners whose dogs were a threat to the community.
She said owners would have to watch their dogs carefully at an off-leash park.
"If you have a dog that hasn't socialized, you run the risk of your dog fighting with other dogs," Grinstead said.
"I think the committee worked really hard," she said of the group that designed the ordinance. "I think the city has gone above and beyond."
Bush takes office amid protests
By Cassio Furtado writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
- Edited by Malissa Cooley
WASHINGTON — The nation's capital has seen everything but unity in the beginning of the George W. Bush presidency, as opponents from around the country protested his inauguration Saturday.
As the 43rd president was sworn in at the Capitol, the controversy surrounding Bush and the United States Supreme Court was as high as during the Florida vote recount.
Police ordered Bush's motorcade to slow in anticipation of some protests — at one point stopping it for five minutes — while it seed through others.
A couple of protesters threw bottles and tomatoes before the presidential limousine arrived, and one hurled an egg that landed near the motorcade, the Secret Service $^{sa1}$
But the protesters managed little else to interrupt the festivities in the face of a massive show of 7,000 police officers. As the day grew darker and colder, authorities had arrested only six people and activists began to disperse, said Terrance W. Gainer, executive assistant chief of police. One of them was charged with assault with a deadly weapon after slashing tires and trying to assault an officer, Gainer said.
Still, despite the protests and differing opinions of pro- and anti-Bush protesters, no big problems were reported, and many joked and jested with each other on crowded subway trains.
Bush remained in his limousine for most of the traditional parade route: up Pennsylvania Avenue from the Capitol to the White House.
The new president left his car only after he reached a secure zone near the White
House filled with inauguration ticket holders and no protesters.
The protests were the largest since those during Nixon's 1973 inauguration at the height of the Vietnam War. Those protests drew about 60,000; organizers of the Bush protests anticipated 20,000.
As Bush began his speech, hundreds of
protesters along Connecticut Avenue held signs with slogans, including: "King George:D.C. Coronation" and "Bush raped America." Thousands more gathered outside the Supreme Court to protest the election's result. The bitter signs contrasted with the speech itself, which preached the ideals of civility and courage.
Kari Austin, chairwoman of the Kansas Republican Party, was indifferent to the protests. For Austin, who was in Washington for the inauguration, it was perfect. She said that even though protesters were exercising free speech, they

The event took place Friday afternoon at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union.

Alpha Phi Alpha men address King's legacy ongoing U.S. racism
By Danny Phillips
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Not according to Alpha Phi Alpha member Marcus McLaughlin, a Kansas City, Kan., senior, who spoke Friday at the fraternity's annual Martin Luther King Jr. candelight vigil. McLaughlin addressed the continued discrimination African Americans face in the United States.
It's 2001 Are all races equal?
"When you're in the classroom, how many times does it feel like you're always singled out because of your race?" McLaughlin asked the predominantly African-American audience.
"When you sit down for an interview, yes, he's going to see you as a man," McLaughlin said. "Yes, you might be smart. But don't you think he's going to notice your color?"
He said that same type of discrimination would continue when they entered the work force.
A majority of them raised their hands.
Alpha Phi Alpha traditionally holds the vigil the weekend after the observance of King's birthday so that more students can attend.
McLaughlin said that as an African American he felt nervous when he stopped in small Kansas towns while taking a trip to Dallas during winter break.
He said he was also nervous about getting pulled over by the police.
McLaughlin said he would keep his hands on the steering wheel and would make sure he said the right things to the officer, "just to make sure the situation doesn't get a little heated."
"I hope the cold weather doesn't scare everybody away," said fraternity president Christopher Haydel, Philadelphia senior, as he waited for students to arrive in front of Wescoe Hall.
It was the lack of heat that got Friday's vigil off to an inauspicious start.
He had hoped to draw at least 50 people to the opening candlelight march from Wescoe Hall to the Kansas Union, but the bitter cold temperatures and strong winds kept away all but eight students.
Neither Haydel nor the Office of Multicultural Affairs was able to secure a keynote speaker for the event, but McLaughline and several fraternity members spoke to the audience of 30 students.
Unit candles in hand, they proceeded to the auditorium, where a larger group of people and the University's Inspirational Gospel Voices met them.
"We're in college," McLaughlin said.
"We as a people — not only Black, but Latino and even White — we're going to make something of ourselves.
"Don't forget about our young brothers and sisters who haven't made it as far as we have. Don't call them thugs and criminals, because a lot of them aren't. They just haven't had the opportunities we've had. With your success, try to bring them up to your level."
"When you're in the classroom, how many times does it feel like you're always singled out because of your race?"
Marcus McLaughlin Kansas City, Kan., senior
Fraternity member Alfred Harris, Kansas City, Mo., senior, evoked the story of Aladdin and the magic lamp to illustrate the contributions and legacy Martin Luther King Jr. left to his people.
He said if he had one wish, it would be to have the same passion, endurance and determination of the civil rights leader.
Belinda Hinojos, Kansas City, Kan., senior, said she thought the speakers did a good job of showing why people still needed to remember what King did, but she was disappointed with the vigil's turnout.
"I just wish more of the campus would have come out to hear it." Hinjos said.
— Edited by Joshua Richards
"This is what Dr. King stood for," Harris said. "This is what he wanted out of all of us."
Harris concluded his message by urging the crowd members to pattern their lives after King and find their own passions, such as education, a significant other, God or "anything that's positive."
Group aims to boost peace with Web site
For Avraham Mor, designing a Web site promoting peace in the Middle East is a departure from his creative efforts as an architectural and theatrical lighting design major.
By Michelle Ward writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
The site will offer no opinions on the conflict in the Middle East. Instead, white-ribbon.org will serve as an informational tool. It will have links to various news sites to give visitors a full picture of events. The organization is developing the site, which should be operational within the next few weeks. It's not yet available for public view.
"People need to be able to find out the truth," said Mor, a Wilmette, Ill., senior. "We knew we had to give them a place to do that. That is what our mission had to be."
Members of KU Hillel Foundation, the student Jewish organization, applied for a grant through their headquarters to develop the site. Hillel granted the request and gave the KU group $400 for its project, which it received this semester.
"The media is so one-sided," said Justin Jordan, Shawnee senior. "We are offering a place to get both sides of the story."
"It scared us that only one side was being represented." Mor said. "If you only hear one side of the story, that is what you are going to believe. We wanted people to hear both sides and then make an informed decision."
The site will continue a peace movement started by the KU Hilliell Foundation this fall. In response to a Palestinian student protest on the violence, Hilliell made its own statement with white ribbons, to promote peace in the Middle East.
Hiliel handed out thousands of ribbons to students on campus, which led to a nation-wide movement among Hillel organizations. KU took the next step to reach even more people with the creation of the Web site.
"It is exciting," Jordan said. "I have never done anything like this before. I am graduating in May, so I figured I would do something good before I go."

Forum to seek answers to election questions
The University of Kansas Green Party is sponsoring a community forum on the Electoral College and election reform from 7 to 9 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 25, at the Lawrence Public Library, 707 Vermont St.
The forum will include a panel of guest speakers, consisting of professors and Bob Eye, an environmental lawyer and former independent gubernatorial candidate.
Dalyn Cook, chairman of the KU Greens Research Committee, said she hoped to address issues on how to improve the Electoral College and stimulate a continued interest in political activism in the community.
"We hope this reform will answer some people's questions about the Electoral College and bring about ways to improve it so that we don't have another chaotic election," Cook said.

Sgt. Mike Patrick, Lawrence Police Department, said an acquaintance of the suspect spilled a drink on the student and there was a verbal exchange. The suspect, an Asian female, then hit the student twice on the head with a beer bottle, breaking the bottle on the second hit.
Little damage caused by Bailey pipe break
Patrick said the investigation was continuing. The student was treated and released Friday morning.
Construction workers working on the renovation of room 303 in Bailey Hall broke a steam pipe Friday afternoon, setting off fire alarms that evacuated classes for about 1.0 minutes.
"I was sitting in the office and just heard lots of water running," said Jim Dick, graduate student in anthropology. "We looked in another office and water was just pouring from the ceiling."
Blaine Hawley, project manager, said that he estimated that the only damage was to some ceiling tiles, carpet and loose papers on office desks in anthropology offices. The offices were on the floor directly below the break.
newey said it could be "pretty common" for minor things like a pipe break to happen during a project.
"We knew the lines were hot, and in the process of working around it, it got shifted and bent," Hawley said. "It doesn't take much when they're old, rusting.
cast iron pipes to break."
Hawley estimated the break set his crews back about four hours.

Student's statements to police challenged
The use of Kevin J. Hoskinson's statements to police remained questionable Friday as a judge considered excluding them from the case against the student.
The hearing on his motion to supress the statements was continued after more than two hours.
Hoskinson, a Garden City junior, is accused of kissing and fondling a female Hashinger Hall resident in the hall's sixth floor lobby in late August.
Sally Howard, Hoskinson's defense attorney, maintained that Hoskinson could not have made his statements to police voluntarily because of his mental illness.
Detective Mike Riner of the KU Public Safety Office testified Friday that Hoskinson voluntarily met with police and gave written statements.
Judge Paula Martin continued the hearing until 9 a.m. Tuesday, Jan. 30.
suspect buys $313.47 on Stephenson account
An unauthorized person used the Stephenson Hall grocery account twice in December to purchase groceries at Checkers Foods, 2300 Louisiana St., Lawrence police reported.
The suspect, a 19-year-old white male described as 6-foot-3 and 190 pounds, spent $64.21 on Dec. 23 and $249.26 on Dec. 28, said Sgt. Mike Patrick.
A Checkers employee noticed unauthorized charges on the account and reported the incidents to police, Pattrick said.
Pattrick said a 19-yearold female and a 23-year-old female, who are former store employees, also are suspects in the case.

KU scientist provides help in Hutchinson
Lynn Watney, senior scientist with the Kansas Geological Survey, provided maps of the area to help understand the nature of the salt beds where the gas is stored and the aspects of salt itself, which may be a contributing factor to the fires.
A KU scientist helped Hutchinson officials determine Saturday how much natural gas is still pocketed in geysers that exploded last week, forcing residents to evacuate.

Watney said he hoped his meeting with Hutchinson's emergency management director and other local officials would help them to understand the geological area better, in order to prevent future gas fires.
MANHATTAN — A Fort Riley soldier was killed and two other people were wounded in a shooting in a downtown parking lot early Sunday, authorities said.

Clinton grants favors, pardons in final acts
NATION
WASHINGTON — President Clinton ended his tenure Saturday by pardoning 140 Americans, erasing the criminal records of his brother Roger, Whitewater business partner Susan McDougal and 1970s kidnapped heiress Patricia Hearest in a mix of personal and historical acts of clemency.
The orders Clinton signed two hours before leaving office also spared one man from execution and cleared the cloud of scandal from two former Cabinet confidants — ex-CIA director John Deutch and ex-housing chief Henry Cisneros. Former Arizona Gov. Fife Symington also received a pardon that effectively ends prosecute's efforts to restore criminal charges against him.
International custody battle spawns new law
The Department of Health said the case of twin sisters Kimberley and Belinda has prompted it to push for the swift adoption of a law that had already been drafted.
LONDON — Britain's government promised Sunday to speed up legislation designed to protect babies adopted abroad, responding to an international custody battle over american-born twins adopted by a British couple who found them on the Internet.
The law would make it illegal to bring a child into England or Wales for adoption unless a government agency has completed a study of its prospective home, as is required for British adoptions.

Protests were peaceful
Saturday.
Sarah Hoskinson, Burron junior and president of the KU Green Party, said that the commitment of those who oppose the Bush agenda and the manner in that Bush became president shouldn't be doubted.
"Those people were out there protesting despite the remarkably harsh measures our government took to keep them away," she said. "It's inspiring."
The protests included a "Shadow Inauguration," which was organized by the activist group National Action Network, and a Million Voter March with columnist Michael Moore.

Participants in the Shadow Inauguration — which drew thousands of voters claiming to have been disenfranchised — were sworn in at noon in front of the Supreme Court.
The marchers faced stringent security measures, including a first: checkpoints along the parade route. There were miles of protective steel fencing and Secret Service agents jogged alongside the motorcade.
Julie Merz, St. Louis junior and president of the KU Young Democrats, said that it was common to have student protests at
presidential inaugurations.
"But the fact that Gore did win the popular vote brought more protesters," Merz said. "That's positive, as long as they don't get violent."
Susan Tolbert, a protester from Texas, said that Bush hadn't been elected.
"Bush was selected," she said. "The Supreme Court violated the Voting Rights Act."

Slaughtered cat found at complex
By Lauren Brandenburg
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A KU student living at Meadowbrook Apartments said she was concerned about the brutal killing of a cat at the complex last week.
"It freaked me out just to think that someone living amongst us would do something like that," said Jenni Sweeten. Overland Park junior.
A groundskeeper for the complex discovered the cat Wednesday when he saw something that looked like pizza cheese and was going to put it in the dumpster, said Tony Frentrop, groundskeeper.
It turned out to be Mama Cat's intestines.
Frentrop said the cat, who recently had two kittens, was cut open from its pelvis to its throat, and its head was crushed. He and other maintenance workers at the complex had been taking care of the cat for about one or one-and-a-half years, he said.
"It was a really brutal death to a really nice cat." Frenton said.
Animal control workers described the scene outside the building as bloody. Lawrence police Sgt. Mike Patrick said he saw blood on vehicles, the side of a building, the parking lot, a balcony and part of a doorway.
After further investigation, police issued Brett Rizzo, a 23-year-old Lawrence resident, a notice to appear in court on misdemeanor charges of cruelty to animals and criminal damage, Pattrick said. He said getting the offender into the court system was the most officers could do when they had not witnessed the crime.
Rizzo did not live at the complex, Pattrick said, but he arrived while police were talking with the residents of the apartment where the blood was found. When officers obtained a warrant and searched the apartment, they found drugs, Pattrick said. He said the investigation was continuing and would not comment on the type or amount of the drugs discovered.
Frentrent said the cat's blood was splattered throughout the apartment.
An apartment manager, who did not give her name, said the right actions were being taken but would not comment any further.
Complex resident Stephanie Smith, Shawnee junior, said the incident was disturbing because many serial killers started out killing animals. She said she was concerned that anyone who treated an animal that way would do the same thing to a human.
"They purposefully did what they did to it," she said.

STUDENT SENATE
Senate to mull constituency bill
Bv Brooke Hesler
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Students will see more of their student senators if Justin Mills gets his way.
Mills, a holdover senator and Lansing senior, is in the process of redrafting a bill that Student Senate rejected last semester. The bill would require senators to attend one meeting a month related to their individual constituency groups.
"I think it will detour people who just want to join Senate for a resume booster," said Mills, co-sponsor of the bill. "I think some senators can go out and meet with constituency groups on their own, but I think other senators need that extra push."
Mills said he expected the bill to go to Senate committees Feb. 7 and full Senate Feb. 14 for a vote. He said the original bill would require senators to attend two meetings a month related to their constituency groups. The new bill will require senators to attend one meeting a month.
"A lot of people contacted me and said they'd be behind it if we revised it a little." Mills said.
Mills said one of the main complaints about the bill was that there was no way to enforce it. However, he said he and the other co-sponsors of the bill planned to look at options for enforcement, although they hadn't decided on what route to take.
"The biggest concern was who keeps track of who is attending the meetings," Mills said. "But while keeping track of attendance is important, it isn't the focus of the bill."
Dallas Rakestraw, a Nunemaker senator representing freshmen and sophomores, said the bill needed substantial revision before he would vote in favor of it.
Senators are held accountable to their constituency," Rakestraw, a Wichita sophomore, said. "Accountability has got to rest with the constituency, not Senate. If the constituency feels a senator is lying or not doing his or her job properly, they vote that senator out of office. Senate shouldn't."
rakesraw said the original bill promoted a system of liars because senators could have other people sign them in at the meetings and not attend.
"I just worry that the bill would punish the good senators who won't
What happened? A bill that would require student senators to attend two meetings related to their constituencies every month failed in Student Senate last semester.
CONSTITUENCY BILL
What's next: Justin Mills, holdover senator and co-sponsor of the bill, plans to rewrite the bill so that it requires senators to attend only one constituency meeting a month. He said he plans to introduce the new bill during Senate committee meetings Feb. 7.
lie." Rakestraw said. "The bad senators can just say they attended, but the senators who admit they didn't attend will be punished."
Mills said he didn't think lying would be a problem.
"I think people on Senate should be considered trustworthy to do what they said." Mills said.
Mills also said he expected Senate to pass the redrafted bill.
Josh Burdette, engineering senator and co-sponsor of the bill, said he also hoped it would pass.
"It should be interesting to see what happens this time around," he said.
Walker, Marshall lay out semester goals

Ben Walker and Marlon Marshall want to go out with a bang.
Walker, Hutchinson senior and student body president, and Marshall, St. Louis senior and student body vice president, said they would like to change some things before their terms run out in April.
Walker said a goal this semester was to ensure the state continued to help pay the technology fee at the University of Kansas. Now, students pay a one-dollar-per-credit-hour technology fee each semester. The state matches that and pays two dollars per credit hour.
"Our hope was that the state would see how beneficial it is not just with research, but with everything here," Walker said.
He said he also hoped that a newspaper reader-

become permanent. The pro gram would allow students to pick up several newspapers for free.
Walker said he was also working on an online off-campus housing guide that should be completed in February.
But Kansas Gov. Bill Graves didn't exclude that fee structure from his new budget proposal. Walker said he wanted to make sure the state continued to pay.
YOUNG
"I hope to see the program all the w a y through." Walker said.
Marshall said increasing minority recruitment and retention
was his top priority for the semester. He said he was working on a plan that would increase the number of minority students at the University.
---
"When you graduate from KU and you go out into the work force, it's a diverse environment." Marshall said. "At KU right now, it's not really like that. It's not that diverse."
Marshall
Walker
Marshall said he had studied minority recruitment and retention programs at other universities, particularly Big 12 universities. He said he had visited with members of other minority organizations on campus for suggestions. He also plans to meet with Chancellor Robert Hemenway later in the semester with ideas and possibly form a task force to tackle the issue.
"A lot has already been done, but there's still more we can do," he said.
Marshall said he also wanted to see a new discount service for students implemented. He said he wanted the service to offer discounts to all students who showed their KUID at local businesses. In exchange, the task force would advertise for the businesses.
Marshall headed the Senate task force that looked into the issue last semester. He said it found many retailers and local businesses that already had an agreement with Student Advantage, another discount provider. Marshall said by contract, the businesses weren't allowed to enter into any other student discount agreement.

Students, public lead search for new Lied Center director
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
By Sarah Smarsh
The Lied Center is one step closer to hiring a new executive director, and University of Kansas students will have an opportunity to influence the final decision.
The center announced the names of three finalists Friday, from a search that has lasted since mid-summer. The candidates will be interviewed and tour the center in February and March. Then KU students and the general public will be able to meet the finalists, fill out comment sheets and express their opinions.
"We hope that more students will see the importance of the Lied Center and use their voice," said Toni-Marie Montgomery, KU Fine Arts Dean and
search committee chair. "It's an open process."
Montgomery said students might not realize the quality of the center, which was ranked among the Top 10 centers for university arts by International Arts Manager magazine in 1999.
Avraham Mor, Wilmette, Ill., senior and backstage technician at the Lied Center, said he hoped students would take the chance to help select the best candidate for such an influential position. He said the executive director controlled which acts to bring to the center.
Mor also said that this was a rare occasion for students.
"Seventy percent of people who go there are students," Mor said of Lied Center performances. "The director has to know what the kids like."
The finalists are Ellis Finger, director of the Williams Center for the Arts at Lafayette College in Easton, Pa.; Timothy Van Leer, executive director of the El Camino College Center for the Arts in Torrance, Calif.; and Evy Warshawski, executive director of the Ann Arbor Summer Festival in Ann Arbor, Mich.
"Students don't get a say in what professors they hire," he said. "The fact that they're doing this just shows how important it is."
"We're sure any one of them would lead the center in the direction we want to go, and hopefully would come up with some ideas for a new direction." Montgomery said.
She added that such a new direction might include broadening the Lied Center's reach to the Kansas City area.

Roe v. Wade undermines democracy
Imagine a 5-4 U.S. Supreme Court decision that ignores the opinion of almost half of America, includes scathing dissension by the minority, and leads to cries that the court is politicized.
Too easy, right? Except the year is not 2000 — it's 1973, and the case is *Roe v. Wade*. While I could talk at length about the arbitrary and predatory nature of abortion, I would prefer to explore why the decision is not legally sound.
What Roe v. Wade certainly did not do was assert an unrestricted right to abortion. The Court created two "compelling" points during which the state can override the mother. The first is between the first and second
trimesters. At this point, the state develops
an important and legitimate interest in the life of the mother," because at that time the danger of an abortion was greater than the childbirth mortality rate. The second is at viability, defined as "the capability of a meaningful life outside the mother's womb." At this point, the state's interest in prenatal life overrides the decision of a woman to have an abortion.
10
I take issue with this decision for a number of reasons. First, it shut me
Robert Chamberlain columnist
gerolin@ianaan.com
out of a process in which I should have input. Second, it created a right where there isn't one. Third, the definition of viability is changing rapidly, thanks to science.
Roe v. Wade stripped me of my ability to express my views on abortion at the ballot box. In Justice White's dissent, he wrote "[t]he Court apparently values the convenience of the pregnant mother more than the continued existence and development of the life or potential life she carries. ... I find no constitutional warrant for imposing such an order of priorities on the people and legislatures of the states." He went on to state that "[t]his issue, for the most part, should be left with the people and to the political processes the people have devised to govern their affairs."
Justice William Rehquist echoed this opinion, equating the ruling with "judicial legislation" rather than "a determination of the intent of the drafters of the Fourteenth Amendment."
This state of affairs should be intolerable to all of us who believe in participatory democracy. The Supreme Court is designed to interpret the Constitution, not to create laws — to provide a check on the states, not to pre-empt them.
The supposed right to an abortion has no constitutional warrant. It is not "private" in the sense covered in the Bill of Rights, according to Justice Rehnquist. "To reach its result, the Court necessarily has had to find within the scope of the Fourteenth Amendment a right that was apparently completely unknown to the drafters of the amendment," Rehnquist wrote. But when the amendment was drafted, "there were at least 36 state laws enacted by state of territorial legislatures limiting abortion ... The only conclusion possible from this history is that the drafters did not intend to have the Fourteenth Amendment withdraw from the states the power to legislate with respect to this matter."
Justice White was more blunt. "I find nothing in the language or history of the Constitution to support the Court's judgment," White wrote. "The Court simply fashions and announces a new constitutional right for pregnant mothers and, with scarcely any reason or authority for its action, invests that right with sufficient substance to override most existing state abortion statutes."
Technology is quickly overtaking Roe v. Wade. While abortions are becoming safer, the ability to care for premature infants is expanding as well. Presumably, at some point it will be possible to bring a child to term completely outside the womb. At this point, viability will begin at conception. Thus, according to Roe, the state will have a compelling interest for the duration of the pregnancy.
While I hope this will signal the end of legal abortion, I fear that once again, the Court will intervene to preserve the practice. In so doing, they would preserve a fictitious "right," while simultaneously stripping me of my right to a political voice and a child of its right to life.
Chamberlain is a Topeka senior in political science.

Today is the anniversary of Roe v. Wade. Only 28 years ago, this landmark case gave women the right to a safe and legal abortion. The Supreme Court, believing that choice is a fundamental right, legalized the right to an abortion and allowed women to control their reproduction.
Unfortunately, after all these years, the full meaning of this court decision has not come to its full potential. Because of political games and clinic violence, women are still deprived of the full right to reproductive choice.
Conservatives in Congress actively work to limit access to abortions. Despite the decision levied in Roe v.
Megan Murphy guest columnist opinion@kanas.com
Wade, more than 100 bills restricting women's reproductive rights have been passed in this term of Congress alone. Unable to respect previous court decisions, right-wing politicians strive to limit a woman's right to choose.
Women's rights to accessible, legal abortions have been extremely limited because of clinic violence. Since 1992, there have been an average of twelve violent attacks on abortion providers each month.
In no other medical profession are doctors and clinic workers at such risk for their safety. These doctors, dedicated to maintaining healthy choices for women, face threats, attacks and constant scrutiny by medical boards. With this large
risk, it is no surprise that 86 percent of U.S. counties have no known abortion provider.
In Kansas, exercising the right to choose continues to be a struggle. Because only five abortion providers practice in this state, each doctor faces strong protests and threats on a constant basis.
Kristen Neuhaus, Lawrence's only abortion provider and the only female abortion provider in Kansas, is under constant review and examination by the Board of Allied Health. This month, a few miles away in Overland Park, 25 bullets were fired into a Planned Parenthood building.
Twenty-eight years ago, women gained the right to determine what can happen to their bodies. It is sad that a new generation of women, born after the decision, still must fight to maintain a fundamental freedom.
These violent attacks and political maneuvers have specific and devastating effects on our country. These actions are carried out with the specific goal of restricting a woman's right to an abortion
With a large following, anti-choice activists work to emotionally, physically and legally keep women from exercising their full right to choose. We cannot allow these actions to change such an important court decision for the women of this country.
We have to remember what reproductive rights meant before *Roe w. Wade* and what they can mean if we allow political attacks and clinic violence to continue.

Editorial
Removal warrants answers
Administrators' silence is inappropriate, given study abroad director's success.
The sudden removal of Margareta O'Connell, the director of the Office of Study Abroad, raises serious questions that someone involved needs to answer before it further damages the reputation of the University.
The most important question is why the University replaced O'Connell. Neither the University nor O'Connell has articulated a good reason why. O'Connell says she doesn't know why she was removed, and the University's claims are vague and have no real merit based on what the public knows at this point.
what the public asked about Diana Carlin, the new dean of international programs, removed O'Connell, saying that she had assessed the program and had decided to make changes. Carlin says that the program will expand rapidly soon and that O'Connell didn't fit into the plan.
But that logic seems flimsy at best. The study abroad program already was growing rapidly under O'Connell's command. According to the office of Study Abroad, annual enrollment in the program grew steadily, nearly doubling in O'Connell's first four years, from 785 in the 1966-1987 academic year to 1.555 in 1999-2000.
If that growth isn't fast enough for the University, it's hard to imagine what could be. Yet that is the only reason Carlin will cite. She has declined to discuss it in more detail, citing that it is a personnel issue.
The University may have had other reasons for the decision that neither party will talk about. Administrators often cannot discuss circumstances surrounding the firing of an employee because of personnel rules or fear of legal repercussions.
Unless someone breaks the silence, it will look as though the University fired O'Connell unjustly. The facts as we now know them send a chilling message to other University employees: You can be fired even if you do your job well.
When the University fires the director of a nationally prominent program, it better have a good reason. So far, it has failed to show one. Someone needs to break the silence.

I work at a bookstore, and I think it's pretty messed up when a student buys a book for $90 for a class they're going to drop. Then they unwrap it when it says on there that you can't return it if it's unwrapped. Then they come and bitch to us because they can't return it.

City reluctant to fix pipe problems
By Amanda Beglin
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
The water main near 10th and Massachusetts streets that ruptured Thursday night has some Lawrence officials concerned about the city's recent problems with main breaks and leaks.
Senior project inspector Kevin Carr said harsh weather and old age may have caused the main to burst.
"There was a failure in the well of the pipe, and a piece just blew out," Carr said. "But it's 114 years old. The changes in the weather and extreme temperatures make the ground move, so
any weak place in the system is a place it could break."
While repairs to water mains would cause only a slight disruption to Massachusetts Street businesses, the city hesitates to impose construction on the downtown area, he said.
"We've had a rehab program going for years," Carr said. "And we've replaced old pipes with new lines. But we've put downtown on the back burner."
Carr said age and water quality determined the order in which water mains were replaced.
"Some mains aren't lined and may have rust problems," he said.
The section of pipe that broke
Thursday didn't splintered since it originally was laid in 1886, possibly making the section ripe with rust.
Carr said replacing the mains along Massachusetts Street would mean closing off portions of the street to traffic, but shops and restaurants would remain open.
"It doesn't disrupt all that much." Carr said. "Much of it is confined to a small area. The only time it's really spread out is when we're testing the new lines before putting them in the system. At cross streets, excavations are made to connect the lines. It looks like a wide area, but it's not."
When water lines were replaced last semester on Crescent Road
near the Chi Omega fountain, Carr said the city's department of utilities notified Jayhawk Bookstore, the University of Kansas and KU on Wheels to ensure the repairs could be made with minimal interruption to campus traffic flow.
David Woosley, Lawrence transportation and traffic engineer, said a Massachusetts Street water project would not happen anytime soon.
It's always a possibility, but probably not for a long time," Woosley said. "It won't close until it's unsafe for traffic to travel through."

Students devote winter break to service
By Sarah Warren
Writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Jennil Gottschalk relaxed during winter break by ripping out 25 miles of barbwire fence in the tiny town of Elgin, Ariz.
ine Leavenworth junior was one of the nearly 60 participants in this year's Alternative Winter Break program who traveled to six sites around the United States for weeklong community service projects.
Seven other University of Kansas students joined Gothschalk on the trip to Elgin, while other participants went to cities in Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, Louisiana and Arizona.
Each of the trips had different focuses, including education, conservation, hunger and homelessness and multiculturalism, said Gottschalk, a co-coordinator of the program.
Gottschalk's trip was devoted to conservation. She said that her group had the double duty of maintaining an 8,000-acre ranch and keeping the conservatory efforts animal-friendly.
"It was a research ranch, so if cows got in, it would really mess up the research they were trying to do," she said.
Gottschalk said that in Arizona, the responsibility for keeping cattle off property fell to the resident, not the cattle owner. The ranch owner in Elgin had previously done that with barbwire. However, the wire tended to injure deer and rabbits that would try to go over or under the fence. The volunteers installed an animal-friendly version of the fence — one that had the top and bottom wires unbarbed.
While Gottschalk got her hands soiled yanking out 50-year-old barbwire, the group of education volunteers played with kids in Phoenix.
Melissa Cline, Wichita senior, was a co-site leader for the Phoenix program. She said that the 10 people involved on her trip aided teachers in classes at a bilingual elementary school and middle school.
"Some of the kids were there because they only speak Spanish and need to learn English, and then other kids only speak English and want to
learn Spanish." Cline said.
Cline said the amount of Spanish taught in the classrooms decreased as the grade levels increased, so the volunteers were assigned to work with different grade levels according to their Spanish-speaking skills.
Gottschalk said she hoped this break's volunteers as well as newcomers would apply later in the semester to go on the 2002 trip.
"It's an incredible learning experience that you can't get on campus," Gottschalk said.

Brandon Gillette, Topeka sophomore, has spent more time studying this year after making a New Year's resolution to get better grades. He has put up motivational signs in his room in the past, and this semester he took a job at Lewis Hall's academic resource center, where he uses downtime to study.

Gillette studies in his room, which is adorned with pictures of night skies. Originally interested in aerospace engineering, Gillette was a counselor at a space camp this summer when he realized he would rather be a teacher. He is working on improving his grades so he can get into the School of Education.
t
he end of last spring's semester found Bran-
don Gillette lying in bed staring at a number
in big, black letters taped to the ceiling: 4 $ ^{n} $
The sign was just out of reach when he lay on the top bunk. So was Gillette's desired grade point average. At the end of the semester, he found himself with a 2.0 and decided he needed to start taking school more seriously.
This semester, the Topeka sophomore is handling a 19-hour course-load after sporting a 4.0 this fall. But it took changing his major to turn Gillette around.
New, Gillette finds himself driven by his decision to follow a different career path, and like many students, he has a New Year's resolution to bring up his grades.
the turnaround
Entering as a freshman in the fall of 1999. Gillette signed up to live on a community floor in Ellsworth Hall known as "3E." (Experiencing Excellence in Ellsworth) hoping that getting involved with events and projects on the floor could help keep him focused on school.
By mid-year, he was coaching Salvation Army basketball, working in a leadership program with the Association of University Residence Halls (AURH) and serving food as a community service volunteer at the Jubilee Café.
"I started paying more attention to that than to school." he said.
Still, the floor made its goal to average a 3.0. A giant sign reading "3.0" hung in the floor lobby, which inspired Gillette's "4.0" motivational reminder.
But support from others on his floor didn't seem to make a difference in the end, Gillette said.
"I felt like it was helping me, but in the numbers it didn't show," he said.
Hoping to enter the School of Engineering, perhaps to study aerospace engineering, Gillette applied to work at the Summer Cosmosphere space camp in Hutchinson. He was placed as a counselor for seventh through 10th-graders in the Future Astronaut Training Program. After taking 11 groups of students through the one-week camp, working with kids from varied backgrounds and some physically disabled and autistic children, Gillette decided he wasn't as interested in space as he was in teaching.
When he returned to the University this fall, he dropped courses in physics and engineering calculus and focused on getting As in two classes. He kept his introductory eco
nomics class and added an education class, for which he aided a middle school science teacher several times.
"As the semester progressed, he realized the importance of school because he was focusing on the future," Ohm said. "He just saw that it was going to take a lot of work and motivation to keep his grades."
After taking the education class, Gillette said he was sure he wanted to become a teacher, giving him a new reason to study.
Erin Ohm, Wichita freshman and a close friend to Gillette, said she didn't notice his transformation all at once. Through the course of the past semester, she saw him spending more time on homework and studying.
"It gave me an extra incentive. It was actually what I wanted to do," he said. "I just had to force myself to get things done."
Gillette moved to Lewis Hall and began working in its academic resource center—a job that included plenty of downtime that he used for homework and studying.
He hisky schedule this semester is preparing him to apply to the School of Education. He said he recognized that he was facing a pivotal task.
"Either I'm in for a big self-esteem boost or a big loss," he said.
Gillette said he had started every semester
The Student Development Center will offer its first time-management workshop of the semester at 4 p.m. Wednesday at the Walnut Room in the Kansan Union.

ne can remember hoping for the best, but this year his New Year's resolution to do better carries more weight.
Managing his time will be the key, Gillette says, to how he plans to handle the heavy course-load. He still coaches basketball and works on an AURH committee that tracks hall improvements.
Like most students, Gillette has started many semesters keeping track of his assignments and tests in a daily planner. Some he only used for a few weeks; others he used more. But the planners never made it to Stop Day.
"A planner only helps if you use it," he said. "It seems like I'd start out using one, and I'd just kind of fade away."
getting better grades
Mary Ann Rasanak, director of the Student Development Center, said planning half-hour blocks of studying could be the key to keeping a resolution to get better grades
"All of us have a shortened attention span," Rasnack said. "No one intense immersion that exhausts you physically, emotionally and intellectually can be as beneficial as short bursts of studying."
But merely sticking to your study schedule isn't enough, Rasmack said. Choosing specific exercises to do is always more helpful than just trying to absorb a textbook, she said.
inere's amazing things you can get done in a half hour. You can work out a problem or two, or skim a chapter," she said. "Do something. Say to yourself, 'I'm not just going to sit here for half an hour and stare at the material.' If you just say, 'I'm going to study,' that's a little vague."
Rasnack said studying during breaks between classes generally was more effective than studying at night. Students tend to concentrate better and absorb more during daylight hours, even if they use the same methods they might use at night.
one said using signs for motivation, such as Gillette did, could help but striving for unreasonable goals led to unnecessary stress.
"I don't object to focusing on the 4.0, but that's not an easy goal. Goals should be achievable," she said. "You can post them on your mirror, above your bed, when you open the closet, on your refrigerator, on your TV screen or your computer monitor."
The Student Development Center will offer its first time-management workshop of the semester on Wednesday for students looking for some guidance in keeping their New Year's resolutions to study. The workshop is scheduled for 4 p.m. Wednesday at the Walnut Room in the Kansas Union.
Committing to sit down and study is the biggest barrier that holds students back, Gillette said. But it's just as important to have some sort of release. For him, it's coaching basketball and attending KU basketball games.
"I kind of use basketball as an outlet. It's relaxation," he said.

Following through on your New Year's resolution to get better grades:
Set achievable goals.
Not everyone can get a 4.0.
- Plan half-hour blocks of study time. Take breaks to eat, stretch, exercise or relax. Exhausting yourself mentally and physically won't help in the long run.
Have a study goal for the 30-minute period. Tell yourself you are going to work through a specific question or problem rather than just staring at a text-book.
Try to study more during the day. You can study during breaks between classes, on the bus or after your classes but before going home.
Use a planner to keep yourself organized.
Studying for a test:
Studying for a test.
Start early and leave yourself a lot of time to study properly — at least three days.
Don't wait until the last minute.
Go through your notes briefly. Look for major themes the professor emphasized during the course. Start an index card for each new theme you find.
Go through your notes again, adding details to each index card. If your notes are insufficient, go back to your books for information.
Look through the index cards until you're comfortable with the material.
Quiz yourself on each topic, checking what you remember against the cards.
Review every time you've been away from your notes for more than a couple hours. Review is the best way to get things
to stick in your mind.

Scoring woes plague team in losing skid

BOULDER, Colo. — Basketball is a five-player game, and it takes a complete team to make things work — a fact Kansas women's basketball seniors Jennifer Jackson, Brooke Reves and Jaclyn Johnson are learning the hard way this season.

The Jayhawks (7-9 overall) and 1-4 in the Big 12 Conference) suffered their second loss in a row and the eighth loss in ten games Saturday to the Colorado Buffaloes 72-63. The Buffaloes (13-3 and 4-1) extended their win-streak to four games despite the 45 points, nine assists and 17 boards the three seniors produced.
"I've got a group that's not going to stop trying," said coach Marian Washington. "But we're just having
to depend on some new faces."

some new faces.
And those new faces are where many of the problems lie. Washington has seen consistent, positive efforts from Jackson, Reves and Johnson, but the supporting cast has been quiet
Washington
and, for the most part, unproductive. Ten Jayhawk saw playing time Saturday, taking away the three seniors, and the other seven scored 18 points collectively — none of whom scored more than six...
The 'Hawks put together a 19-6 run midway through the second half — with Johnson, Jackson and Reves scoring all but two of those points — and showed signs of life that had been missing in last week's loss to Oklahoma State. But as the senior Jayhawks began to tire and were forced to sit out and take a breather, the Buffalooes ran away with the game on a 14-4 run of their own.
"We're still trying to get our new players to help put some points on the board, bottom line," Washington said. "We have, I think, a couple really fine junior college players but we just haven't been able to get them to consistently put points on the board for us. And that has been really challenging."
Junior college transfers KC Hilgenkamp and Fernanda Bosi were supposed to provide a scoring threat to fill the voids Kansas super-scorers Lynn Pride and Suzi Raymont left when they graduated last year. But lately, neither Hilgenkamp nor Bosi has made an impact on the scoreboard.
Hilgenkamp transferred in this year from Hutchinson Community College, averaging 14.5 points, 7.5 assists and four rebounds a game. Bosi came from Western Nebraska Junior College, averaging 15 points and eight rebounds a game. But in the past four games combined — three of which the 'Hawks lost — Hilgenkamp has scored just 18 points, dished out 13 assists and grabbed six rebounds, and Bosi has 17 points and seven rebounds. Together, they scored just four points against the Buffaloes.
"There's no way that three or four people are going to beat a team of 12, 13." Johnson said. "We're just going to keep losing. We're going to keep losing if we don't have everybody come to play."
"She was a real gamer today." Washington said after the game Saturday. "I think for her to come out tonight and try to play hard for us was great.
Johnson led the way Saturday, despite suffering a bruised bone and strained ligaments in her left ankle in Wednesday's game against Oklahoma State. Johnson worked in the paint against Colorado's 6-foot-4 junior Britt Hartshorn and 6-foot-5 freshman Tera Bjorklund, but still grabbed nine rebounds. Her team-high 16 points put her higher in the record books as Kansas' 12th all-time scorer with 1,165 points, passing Lisa Dougherty, who scored 1,163 between 1985-88.

Colorado to test 'Hawks
By Chris Wristen sports@kansan.com Kansan sportwriter
When No. 5 Kansas travels to Boulder, Colo., to take on the Colorado Buffaloes at 8 tonight, the 'Hawks will be shooting for the century mark.
specifically, Kansas will be looking for its 100th win against the Buffaloes in school history. The Jayhawks (15-1 overall and 4-0 in the Big 12 Conference) are riding an eight-game winning streak and scored a big road win at Oklahoma nine days ago.
But Coach Roy Williams knows tonight's road game might be even tougher.
"I told the guys in the locker room that this is the best Colorado team that anyone in this locker room has faced." Williams said.
The Buffs' record (12-6 and 23) might not show it, but Colorado has won two of its last three games, and lost by only six to No. 20 Missouri two weeks ago. Saturday, Colorado dominated in its 88-71 win against Texas Tech. D.J. Harrison has been lighting up the nets for 16.5 points per game and Jamahl Mosley has added 13 points per game. Those numbers have caught the Jayhawks' attention.
"He's a strong player and he's athletic," said Kansas senior center Eric Chenowith.
Mosley leads the Buffalooes with 7.2 rebounds per game and will be the main player whom Chenowith and sophomore forwards Nick Collison and Drew Gooden must contend on the boards. Kansas outrebounded Texas A&M 49-41 Saturday in Kansas 100-70 win and have out-rebounded their opponents in all 15 wins this season. But Mosley still will be a challenge.
Making things more difficult, Kansas continues to battle foul trouble. Gooden fouled out and Collison had four fouls in Saturday's game. Chenowith fouled out on Wednesday against Nebraska.
"Foul trouble is the only thing that can stop us," Gooden said. "But as long as we take care of that we'll be just fine."
He may be right about that, too. Kansas has taken care of business in its last eight games by out-rebounding its opponents in each game. They've also been on a shot-blocking spree. In the last three games Collison logged 10 swats and Chenowith blocked four shots.
If those blocks continue tonight, then junior guard Jeff Boschee said he expected that the team would receive accolades from the opponent's crowd — or the Kansas crowd, as the case may be.
"For the past three years, a lot of Kansas fans have been there," Boschee said. "But they're a lot better team than they've had in the past, so we'll have to be ready."
Gooden recorded his conference-leading
Kansas leads the all-time series against the Buffalooes in Boulder, 30-25. Williams is 27-1 all-time against Colorado and 11-1 in Boulder. Buffalooes coach Ricardo Patton is 0-1 against Kansas.
sixth double-double of the season on Saturday against Texas A&M with 19 points and 10 rebounds.
Kansas is 8-0 against Colorado since the Big 12 Conference was formed in 1966-97.

Kansas overpowers plucky Aggies

For 12 minutes, Texas A&M may have played its best basketball of the season. The team's final 28 minutes were a different story, though, as No. 5 Kansas roasted the Aggies 100-70 on Saturday in Allen Fieldhouse.
With eight minutes left in the first half, the Jayhawks barely led 26-24 — something nobody would have expected after Kansas jumped out to an early 9-2 lead. But the Aggies refused to back down and stayed with Kansas.
"The first 10 or 11 minutes, I think they clearly out-hustled us," said Kansas coach Roy Williams. "They were getting more rebounds and more loose balls, so I got on (our guys) during a timeout and told them that if we continued playing like that then this was going to go down to the wire."
Message received.
A lay-in by Kenny Gregory with 8:38 left sparked a 23-3 explosion. Meanwhile, A&M didn't make a field goal for another six minutes.
"I was pleased with our defense today," Williams said. "From the nine-minute mark of the first half, down to the last two possessions we played real good defense, we're really good defensively and got what we wanted on offense. We stretched it out and played really good basketball."
Gregory, Nick Collison and Drew Gooden got successive feeds inside for easy baskets and Gooden had an acrobatic putback of a Collison miss as the Aggies fell into a 21-point pit that they would never escape from.
"We just started playing," Collison said. "We started pressuring a lot. We weren't really doing that early, so we just got into it and started playing."
Kansas got sloppy in the final minute of the first half and the Aggies closed the gap to 50-33 at halftime. Nick Anderson then hit a free throw at the start of the sec-
and half that cut the lead to 16.
Texas A&M never got an closer.
Kansas (15-1 overall and 4-0 in the Big 12 Conference) continued pounding the ball to its big inside players. Collison and Gooden made short jump shots and layups at a scorching pace as the lead ballooned to 85-48 with five minutes remaining. The duo
scored 19 points apiece.
The Aggies (6-11 and 0-5) chipped away at that lead with a basket and an assist by Bernard King. But A&M's leading scorer never found his rhythm. King scored 18 points, but hit just five of 18 shots — just the type of play that Kansas expected.
"We knew he was going to get a lot of shots," Collison said. "He always has, but if he's going to get 17 (points), then we're going to make him do it by taking them out of what they're trying to do."
King wasn't the only Aggie who struggled on offense. As a team, Texas A&M shot just 33 percent from the field and Carlton Brown was the only Aggie player to have any success on the offensive end. The guard hit seven of 13 shots, many of which came on put-backs from his six offensive rebounds.
"We wanted to get them off of their sets and what they wanted to run." Gooden said.
Chenowith shined on the defensive end on Saturday when he blocked two shots. Those swats moved Chenowith into the No. 2 spot in career blocks at Kansas with 219. Former Jayhawk Greg Ostertag is the all-time leader with 258.
- Kansas continues to lead the nation in field goal percentage, shooting 52 percent for the season. The Jayhawks hit that mark against Texas A&M, shooting 52.2 percent. It was the 12th time Kansas has shot better than 50 percent this year.

Conference is a force to be reckoned with
I am the Big 12 Conference. All other conferences must bow before me. Who dares challenge my unmatched strength?
At this juncture, no one. The Big 12 has supplied college athletics with Hercules-like strength in the fall season.
Oklahoma won the national championship in football. Nebraska defeated Wisconsin in five games for the women's volleyball title, capping a 34-0 season. And the Colorado women's cross country team claimed the crown in late November at the NCAA Championships in frigid Ames, Iowa.
Championships in frigid Ames, Iowa.
Last spring, the Texas men's swimming and diving team won the national title, as did the Oklahoma State men's golf team, and Oklahoma won last spring's softball College World Series.
This amazing list has been great for the Big 12, but also indicates that the Big Eight brethren have messed with Texas.
The Lone Star annex to the conference in 1996 has added excitement to the league, but the former Big Eight schools have held firm ground on the national scene.
isn't it intriguing that the Big Eight invites the Texas schools in its home, then the league offices move to Dallas, as did the conference football title game?
Sure, you've heard this cry before, and perhaps everything has even out. St. Louis and Kansas City have been hosts for the football championship game, and although the conference basketball tournaments will migrate to Texas, they have been played in Kansas City for the first four years of the Big 12.
But although the Big 12 has been king of the mountain in many sports as of late, one sport has been way too steep for some time. Ah, yes, the sport Jayhawks take extremely seriously — basketball.
OK, so maybe we can share and make compromises. Texas schools have provided extra competition in preparation for national postseason play, and they've brought new rivalries.
Kansas claimed the conference's last national title in 1988. No Big 12 Texas school has won basketball's national crown.
On the flip side, no former Big Eight school has won the women's national title. Only Texas and Texas Tech did when they played in the Southwest Conference.
After documenting these droughts, it appears the league's national supremacy will come to a halt in early April. Not so fast. Mr. Big Ten.
Iowa State came close to stopping last year's eventual champion Michigan State in the men's Elite Eight; in 1999, the Cyclone women upset top-seeded Penn State in the Sweet 16. Penn State has rivaled Tennessee as the women's dynasty recently.
This year in the recent women's poll, Iowa State is ranked seventh, followed by No. 9 Texas Tech, No. 13 Oklahoma, No. 17 Texas and No. 25 Baylor.
The Jayhawks are ranked fifth in the men's poll, followed by No. 20 Missouri,
No. 22 Oklahoma and No. 23 Iowa State.
The Big Eight was always perceived as a great men's basketball conference, with member schools roughing each other up during the year, only to lose their fizz come NCAA Tournament time.
This year wasn't supposed to be grand, but the trend may change.
grand, but the field may change.
Big 12 basketball has quietly had success (i.e. sweeping three Big Ten men's teams on Dec. 23). Oklahoma and Iowa State won the two women's Big 12/Atlantic Coast Conference games yesterday.
Hmmm. Maybe the national title run will continue for the conference.
If so, you can say "I saw the national champions play in Allen Fieldhouse." It might even be the team that wore the white jerseys.

Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is an 8.
The lure of far distant isles has got you looking at travel videos and saving up your pennies. This could work. Give yourself a juicy enough goal, and you'll be amazed at what you can accomplish. It might even be fun.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 7.
Your day is full of mechanical challenges. To make life easier, ask your sweetheart out to dinner. Not only will that give you a sense of celebration no matter how the day went, but it also means you don't have to cook or clean up.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Today is a 7.
Lord (29 Oct. 22) — Today it's 7:17.
You could get way off schedule by talking to your sweetheart on the phone. You're fascinated by the intellectual type, but take care. It's not a good idea to get distracted if you should be doing something else.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 6.
You're learning about something you want to do, but you're not learning fast enough. Your problem is you want to know everything right away. Don't fret. If you keep at it, you will. It's just a matter of time and persistence.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21] — Today is a 6. Are you working on a big assignment? Are you more interested in daydreaming about something you and your sweetheart want to do together? Oooops. There's time for that later. First, bring in the money to pay for it.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is a 7.
Jot down whatever bursts into your brain. This could be the idea of the century. You could be rolling in dough in no time. You'll have to figure out how to build it, of course, and take out a patent. But hey, with talents like yours, that's the easy part.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is a 7.
You'd like to do pure research but you have to pay the rent. Don't worry about it, just get back to work. You can do the research simultaneously. When you show the boss what you're up to, you might get a bonus.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is a 7.

Miami too hot for L.A. as Heat trounces Lakers
NBA
LOS ANGELES — Eddie Jones had 26 points and eight rebounds against his former team, and Anthony Mason scored 19 of his 23 points in the second half Sunday as the Miami Heat beat the Los Angeles Lakers 103-92.
The Lakers, playing without starting forward Horace Grant, sidelined due to back spasms, lost for just the
fourth time in 15 games despite 34 points and eight rebounds by Kobe Bryant and 31 points and eight rebounds by Shaquille O'Neal. Bryant fouled out with 1:04 to play.
弓
Mason, who also had seven rebounds and six assists, scored five straight points to give Miami a 68-63 lead midway through the third quarter, and after the Lakers drew within one point, 3-pointers by Hardaway and Jones and a layup by Mason gave the Heat a 76-71 lead entering the fourth period.
Tim Hardaway had 22 points and eight assists and Brian Grant added 14 points for the Heat, who entered the game last in the NBA in rebounding but won the battle of the boards 44-39.
P
The Heat, who have won 12 of their last 16 games, scored 10 straight points for a 16-8 lead just four minutes into the game. Hardaway was 4-for-4 at that stage, including a pair of 3-point shots.
Two free throws by Grant and a 3-pointer by Dan Majleer — his first points of the game — gave Miami an 86-78 lead with six minutes remaining.
Another 3-pointer by Hardaway capped a 10-2 run and made it 30-19 before the Lakers finished the first quarter with five straight points and outscored the Heat 18-5 to start the second period for a 42-35 lead. Bryant (11) and Isaiah Rider (seven) scored all their team's points during the run.
The Lakers got within four points twice, but Grant responded each time with jumpers from just outside the foul line, the second making it 90-84. Mason then scored Miami's next six points to make it 96-86 with 1:44 to go.
However, the Heat outscored the Lakers 19-9 to finish the second quarter for a 54-51 halftime lead, and they were on top the rest of the way.

FLASHBACK
FLASHBACK — FIVE YEARS AGO
Battle in Boulder was a close one
BULLDER, Colo. — Five years of history nearly came crashing down on the Kansas men's basketball team on a Saturday afternoon in January 1996.
The Jawhawks, who hadn't lost to Colorado since Feb. 20, 1991, almost saw their 11-game winning streak against the Buffaloes snapped.
Colorado interim coach Ricardo Patton was coaching in his first game after the sudden retirement of Joe Harrington. He had his team sleep on the floor of the Coors Events Center the night before the game for inspiration.
KU
FLASHBACK
“Coach decided that we should stay together all night, and it's a protecting our own-turf type of thing,” said Colorado point guard Chauney Billups in the Jan. 22, 1996 edition of the Kansan. Apparently, the Buffaloes took the ‘protecting their turf’ mantra to heart. A crowd of 11,988 watched.
as the No. 4 Jajahws (14-1) narrowly escaped with a 80-78 victory against the umed-jumped Ruffles.
60-78 victory against the upset-minded Buffalooes (5-10). The Jayhawks struggled to contain Colorado's Martice Moore, who exploded for 29 points off the bench and hit all four of his shots from beyond the arc. Billups and Kansas junior point guard Jacque Vaughn, playing for the first time against other, matched up well. Vaughn scored 15 points and dishout 10 assists, while Billups scored 15 points and collected nine assists.
The game was nip and tuck until the closing moments. A three-pointer from Kansas junior guard Jerod Haase and a three-point play from Kansas junior center Scot Pollard helped the Jahayhs take only their second lead
of the second half, 79-78. Pollard also hit another free throw that gave Kansas the two-point victor margin.
"They were playing great defense, getting in the lanes, fighting through screens," Pollard told the Kansan after the loss. "We weren't really moving the ball well."
The game marked several career achievements for the Jayhawks. Kansas coach Roy Williams coached in his 250th game and 100th game in the Big 8 Conference, and Vaughn collected his 500th career assist in the victory. The win also helped Kansas move up one spot in the Associated Press poll two days later.

Backcourt backs up team
Bv Zac Hunter
By Zac Hunter
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas backcourt isn't half bad.
With sophomore forwards Drew Gooden and Nick Collison putting up huge numbers, and senior forward Kenny Gregory lighting up the Allen Fieldhouse scoreboard and electrifying the crowd, it would be easy to overlook the job the Kansas backcourt is doing.
In Saturday's 100-70 win against Texas A&M in the fieldhouse, it was the guys on the perimeter that got the Jayhawks' offense going and helped fuel the offensive machine that doomed the depleted Aggies.
Sophomore guard Kirk Hinrich assisted the first three baskets, twice finding junior guard Jeff Boschee spotted up with a perfect look at the basket. Both times Boschee buried the three-pointer, which got the Hawks offense started and got the crowd going.
"I just try to get out there and make the right play." Hinrich said.
And Hinrich is making the right play much more often than not. Since having an eight-turnover game against Oklahoma on Jan. 13, he has committed only four turnovers in his last two games and dished out 19 assists.
Hinrich said his job was easy when players were hitting their shots.
And Kansas couldn't be doing a better job at it. The
Jayhawks are shooting 52 percent, and now that Boschee has found his stroke, that number could increase. After suffering through a mid-season slump, Boschee is firing successfully from the outside.
What is the difference in Williams' mind?
"I think the shots are just going in." Williams said. "I know that sounds pretty simple, but during the stretch when his shots were not going in, he was shooting the ball fantastically in practice."
Boschee finished with 14 points on 5-of-7 shooting. But his biggest contribution might have come on defense for the 15-1, 4-0 Jayhawks.
He was assigned the job of guarding Texas A&M sophomore guard Bernard King, who was fourth in scoring in the Big 12, averaging 17.5 points before Saturday's game.
"Jeff was smaller, but he was also able to get right up on him," Williams said. "And I think he bothered Bernard a little."
King was bothered enough to make only five of 18 shots, though he did score 18 points for the Aggies (6-11, 0-5).
"We knew Bernard was going to get points because he is a good player." Williams said.
However, Gooden said that any time it took 18 shots to get someone 18 points, the Jayhawks would gladly take it.

Colorado rolled over
"That's the Pelle we all expected this season," said Colorado coach Ricardo Patton. "He's been struggling a little bit. He wasn't happy he wasn't starting. In the last week or two, he has earned a starting nod, and he's done a great job in the last week and in this game."
Kansas senior center Eric Chenowith knows that winning in Boulder won't be easy and that it's important to the rest of the season.
Texas Tech on Saturday, 88-71, with six players scoring in double figures. Sophomore forward Stephane Pelle scored a game-high 18 points.
Pelle and Colorado forward Jamahl Mosley form a frontcourt that can put points on the scoreboard. Mosley is averaging 13.3 points. Point guard Jose Winston is second in the Big 12 in assists, averaging 7.06.
"Coach Patton always has them ready to play," Chenowith said. "That's how you win the conference is by winning on the road."
Cyclones win wild one in Lincoln It was a crazy final minute in
which Nebraska senior center Kimani Friend went from goat to hero, then right back to goat in a 60-59 loss to No. 23 Iowa State on Saturday. With 20 seconds left in the game, Friend was fouled and went to the line for two free-throws with the chance to take the lead.
Ffriend clanked both foul shots, but was bailed out by senior guard Rodney Fields, who managed to get the rebound and hit a circus shot that gave Nebraska its first lead of the day with only 17 seconds left.
With one final chance,
Tinsley threw a strike to senior
forward Martin Rancik, who
beat Friend to the block and
hit the winning shot as time
expired.
With time running out, the Cyclones turned to senior point guard Jaunal Tinley to take the final shot, and that's exactly what he tried to do. Tinley drove the lane and put up a shot that was rejected into the third row by Friend with 8 seconds on the clock.
With the win, Iowa State improved to 15-3 and 3-2, while Nebraska fell to 8-9 and 1-3.
Missouri collapses against Virginia
After matching No. 13 Virginia score-for-score for the
first 35 minutes of the game on Saturday, No. 20 Missouri f a d e d down the

stretch and lost, 85-72. Missouri sophomore forward Kareem Rush hit a three-pointer that give the Tigers the lead with only 4:19 remaining, but then
Missouri fell apart offensively.
he fell apart on viscously. Missouri went almost three minutes without a score and Virginia took advantage, running away from Missouri in the waning minutes in Charlottesville, Va.
Rush and junior guard Clarence Gilbert combined for 12 points in the loss.
Kansas State finds way to lose
With a one-point lead, two upcoming free throws, and a guaranteed possession of the ball, Kansas State found a way to lose against No. 22 Oklahoma in overtime on Saturday, 64-63.
After K-State sophomore forward Matt Siebrandt missed two free throws, Oklahoma sophomore guard Hollis Price stole the inbounds pass and hit the game-winning bucket with just 10 seconds left.
“It’s great for them and a tough loss for us,” said K-State coach Jim Wooldridge. “We had an opportunity to win down the stretch, both in regulation and in overtime. I feel bad for our guys.”
Price scored the final six points in the extra period and gave Oklahoma its first Big 12 win of the season.
Had the Wildcats held on to win, it would have been the second straight home win against a ranked opponent. K-State upset Missouri on Tuesday.
The win improved Oklahoma to 12-4 and 1-3, while K-State fell to 9-8 and 2-3.

Diverse films actors triumph at Golden Globes
The Associated Press
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. — The Roman arena epic Gladiator was named best dramatic motion picture at Sunday's Golden Globes, while Almost Famous, Cameron Crowe's fictionalized story about his experiences as a teen-age rock journalist in the '70s, won best comedy film.
Julia Roberts won best drama movie actress for Erin Brockovich and Tom Hanks won best dramatic actor for Cast Away
No one film dominated the night's awards. Gladiator, a bloody re-creation of ancient battles in Rome's Coliseum, came away with two, including one for music.
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon; Almost Famous; and Traffic also won two each. So if the Golden Globes hold true as an indicator of how the Academy Awards will go in March, the field is wide open.
"For a few anxious minutes, I didn't think I'd get to take this baby home," director Ridley Scott said after the final presentation.
Roberts said of the real-life lawyer's aide whose battle about water pollution inspired her film: "Erin Brockovich, the real gal, is awesome and should be a lesson that we are all powerful individuals that can make a difference in the world."
Hanks, naming two other stars honored earlier in the Golden Globe ceremony, said: "I watched Al Pacino movies, and I wanted to be an actor. That went hand-in-hand with listening to Bob Dylan songs."
George Clooney won best actor in a comedy film for O Brother, Where Art Thou? and Renee Zellweger of Nurse Betty won best comedy film actress.
"I think when you list the names of the actors in this category that you've got to figure I'm going to win this," Clooney deadpanned to the audience. Listing his competitors — Carrey, John Cusack, Robert De Niro and Mel Gibson — he cracked: "What have they done?"
Nominees are chosen by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association's roughly 90 members, who cover Hollywood for overseas publications. The association hands out 13 movie and 11 television awards.
Clooney, who played an escaped chain-gang prisoner in the Depression-era South, denied Jim Carrey a third consecutive win in the category.

'Hawks prep for season
By Michael Sudhalter
Kansan sportswriter
sports@kansan.com
The Kansas track and field team prepared itself for its first scored meet of the season while exhibiting solid individual efforts at Friday's Missouri Invitational in Columbia, Mo.
"We had a lot of athletes that placed well," said Kansas first-year coach Stanley Redwine. "I think we are on our way as a team to be preparing for the conference meet. I saw a lot of strong efforts today."
Junior Jennifer Foster won the shot put event with a 45-61 1/2 foot toss and placed sixth in the weight throw competition. Redwine said Foster's work ethic and the guidance of assistant coach Doug Reynolds have improved her performance.
"Jennifer has done a great job this year," Redwine said, "She's stronger and improving each week while enjoying what she is doing."
Junior Jennie Wonder inspired some frowns in Tiger Country by breaking her own Hearnes Center 60-meter hurdle record with a time of 8.60 sec.
"The more Wonder gets things technically correct, the more she can perfect her race." Redwine said. "If she can do the right things in the race, the times will come."
onds. Redwine said he wasn't surprised at Wonder's performance because she was constantly working on her technical skills.
Although Redwine has expected several of the team's veterans to place near the top, he was also pleasantly surprised with some of the younger athletes.
Junior Shameika McField, who had been competing in the 200-meter event, switched races to the 60-meter dash and provisionally qualified for the NCAA Championships with a time of 7.40 seconds.
Senior All-American Andrea Branson won the pole vault event with a 12-foot vault while freshman Laura LaViole placed third in the mile event with a time of 5:11.80.
"For Shameika to place as well as she did while running the 60-meter dash for the first time was really good." Redwine said.
Sophomore Brandi Taylor showed her versatility in the jumping events by placing first
in the triple jump with a 37-4 1/2 foot jump and finished fourth in the long jump with a 17-5 1/4 foot effort.
In the men's competition, the throwing duo of senior All-American Scott Russell and junior Ryan Speers continued to be in the top portion of the shot put and weight throw events. Russell won the shot put for the third-straight time with a toss of 64-2 1/4 feet, and Speers was victorious in the shot put with a 58-3 foot toss.
Senior Andy Morris broke the school record in the Pentathalon event while scoring 3,891 points. Redwine said Morris will compete at the USA Nationals Meet in Atlanta because the NCAA does not have a Pentathalon event.
Redwine said he is trying to prepare senior Jabari Wamble for his main event, the 400-meter dash, by scheduling him to run in the 200-meter dash in the open meets, which he won during the last two competitions.
Redwine said he is looking forward to the KU/KSU/MU triangular meet on Friday in Columbia, Mo.
Big 12 trumps the Challenge
— Edited by Melissa Cooley
The Big 12 Conference further cemented its national prominence with two wins in the Big 12/ACC Challenge yesterday.
No. 7 Iowa State defeated No. 22 North Carolina State, and Oklahoma won 94-77 at North Carolina.
Iowa State versus North Carolina State was a meeting of two teams headed in opposite directions. Iowa State (15-1) has won six in a row, while N.C. State (11-7) is in the midst of a three-game losing streak.
Outside shooting was the difference. Iowa State, averaging a nationleading nine three-pointers per game, finished 9-of-18 from behind the arc.
Junior guard Tracy Gahan led the Cyclones with 21 points and junior forward Angie Willese scored 17. Most important for Iowa State was senior guard Megan Taylor, who scored 10 of her 14 points in the final six minutes as the Cyclones protected their lead.
Iowa State's defense forced N.C. State to attempt 25 three-pointers. N.C.State hit just five.
N. C. State guard Amy Simpson's three-pointer pulled the team to within one with 2:10 remaining. Taylor responded with a three-pointer 28 seconds later and hit two free throws as Iowa State scored the final six points.
No. 13 Oklahoma (13-4) had no problem disposing of North Carolina (10-7). Junior guard LaNeishea Caufield led the Sooners (13-4) with 23 points. Oklahoma junior guard Rosalind connected on a career-high five three-pointers, matching a
career high 19 points.
With the wins, the Big 12 improved its nation-leading record against nonconference opponents to 111-27. It's the most nonconference wins ever for the Big 12, topping the old mark of 105 set last year. With only postseason nonconference games remaining, the Big 12 is on pace for its all-time best nonconference winning percentage at .804. The previous best was in 1998-99 with .698.
The Big 12 has won four straight against the ACC in the Challenge, pushing its record to 6-2 overall. Last year, Iowa State topped North Carolina, while Texas beat N.C. State.

Spartans continue win streak
The Associated Press
EAST LANSING, Mich. — Jason Richardson scored 24 points as No.3 Michigan State beat Ohio State 71-56 Sunday to extend the nation's longest home winning streak to 40 games.
Michigan State (15-1 overall and 4-1 in the Big Ten Conference) will play its next three games and five of its next six on the road.
Richardson was 9-of-13 overall and 4-of-5 beyond the 3-point line.
No. 18 Seton Hall, 77, No. 8 Syracuse 65
Brian Brown led Ohio State with 14 points.
The Buckeyes (12-6 and 3-3) kept the game close for the first 25 minutes, but succumbed to Michigan State's superior depth and talent.
No. 18 Seton Hall, 17, No. 8 Syracuse 6
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.
Freshman forward Eddie Griffin had
20 points, 10 rebounds and eight
blocked shots as Seton Hall snapped
Syracuse's (15-2 and 4-1) six-game
winning streak.
Griffin led the way in a game that was considered almost must-win for the Pirates (12-5 and 3-3 Big East).
Seton Hall had lost three of its last four games and was 1-4 against ranked teams this season.
No.10 Wake Forest 71, Clemson 63
WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. — Broderick Hicks scored a season-high 18 points to help Wake Forest snap its two-game losing streak.
The Demon Deacons (14-3 and 3-3 ACC) extended their home winning streak to 13 games while beating Clemson for the fifth straight time, and in 19th in the last 22 meetings.
No. 13 Marchand 75, North Corr.
NO. 12 MAYFIELD, N.J., NOVEMBER 30
RALEIGH, N.C. — Terence Morris scored 20 points and Lonny Baxter added 18 as Maryland matched its best six-game Atlantic Coast Conference start.
The Terrapins (14-4 and 5-1 ACC) won without much help from leading scorer Juan Dixon, who injured his tailbone in practice Saturday and didn't play in the second half.
Dixon came in averaging 24.2 points in ACC play and had scored at least 19 points in 11 straight games. He ended with just two free throws against the Wolfpack (9-7 and 1-4) to match his season-low point total.

Lines, frustration fill Robinson
Resolutions attract students to gym
By Sarah Warren
Kansan staff writer
Recently there has been a lot more waiting than weight lifting going on in Robinson Center's weight room.
Overcrowded with Robinson regulars and newcomers resolving to get fit in the new year, the gym has become the source of headaches for anybody trvying to work out.
Matthew Bowles, Chicago sophomore, works out three times a week at the weight room. He said that he had been frustrated with the increased amount of traffic in the weight room.
"The weight room is horrible," he said. "My weight work out took 45 minutes extra last time I did it because I had to wait so long."
However, Bowles said he knew exactly what was coming.
"It was the same thing last year," he said. "The amount of people doubled and then it really declined in February."
Angela Gashaw, Osborne sophomore who works at Robinson, cited the upcoming spring break as another reason that more students were heading to the weight room.
"A lot of people come right after winter break because of resolutions and spring break," she said. "I'd say that attendance drops 5 to 10 percent in February and also when it gets warm out, then people go outside to exercise."
While Gashaw attributed some of the decline in February to better weather, Paul Sandburg, Paola senior and personal trainer at Sixth Street Fitness, 2500 W. 6th St., said that many resolution-makers just didn't stick with their new resolutions.
ROBINSON HOURS
Weight room:
Monday and Wednesday from 6 to 8 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. to midnight
Tuesday and Thursday from 6 to 8 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. to midnight
Friday from 6 to 8 a.m. and 5:30 to 10:30 p.m.
Saturday from 8 a.m. to 10:30 p.m.
Sunday from 1 to 10:30 p.m.
Maths homework
Monday through Thursday from 6 to 8 a.m. and 5:30 to 1 p.m.
day, 6 to 8 a.m. and 5:30 to 10 p.m.
Saturday and Sunday from 2 to 10 p.m.
"This time of year you have your normal people who work out all the time and then those who start in January," he said. "I'd say that only 20 percent of those who start in January stay with it and work out regularly."
In any case, Bowles said that he couldn't wait for February.
"Things will get back to normal in February," he said. "I mean, it's nice that people are trying to get fit, but it can be a hassle with so many people in such a small space."
To alleviate overcrowding in the weight room, Gashaw recommended that students either sign up for a class or club or just find a different time to work out.
"At night it is really bad, but from 6 a.m. to 7:30 am, the weight room isn't very crowded," Gashaw said. "And people can always go to 208 Robinson and sign up for KU Fit or join a recreational club. Taking a weight class works, too."
Meanwhile, Bowles is taking another approach -- get there early, get done and get out.
"I try and get there right when it opens," he said.
"That way I can get on the popular things first. I mean there's only one decline bench for the entire school."
I'll try to be as faithful as possible.
But I don't have the room to do it.
Maybe you can help me with a different angle?

KU Info wants students to create catchy slogan
By Michelle Ward
writer@kanson.com
Kansas staff writer
KU Info is looking for a new slogan, and it wants the campus community — its primary users — to create a catchy, new phrase.
"It will be used as our calling card — an instant way to identify KU Info all over campus," said Cori Gilbert, Overland Park graduate assistant for KU Info.
KU Info is also used as a general reference tool. Callers have asked the hotline's representatives everything from how many dimples are on a golf ball to how long it would take to fv to Australia, Gilbert said.
Students use the information hotline to find out the hours of the libraries, computer labs, Watkins Memorial Health Center and Robinson Center. The information line also allows users to obtain the latest information on academics and Add/Drop.
"We have received questions about everything," Gilbert said. "We take every question seriously. If we can't find the answer, we try to give people a road map to help them find the answer."
Crisus Clemence, Valley Center senior, said he had used KU Info throughout his four
years at the University. He said most of his calls involved school-related questions, and he thought that an appropriate slogan would be "You got questions, we got answers."
The reason for the service's popularity is convenience, Clemence said. Students find it easier to call the hotline than look things up for themselves.
But the service's popularity makes it difficult for some students to get through to a representative.
Cindy Lam, Arlington Heights, Ill., sophomore, said the most difficult part of using KU Info was getting an open line.
"Lately, we have been calling and it's been busy," she said. "I think they need to get more lines."
Although she couldn't think of a slogan, Lam thought the service was used often by students. She said she and her friends used it for more than just KU information — the service's ability to provide accurate answers keeps them calling back.
Students can call contest entries in to the KU Info office at 864-3506 through the end of February. The winner will receive a tour of the center and will learn where all the information comes from, Gilbert said.

Athletic classes usually a choice at Big 12 schools
By Cassio Furtado and Danny Phillips
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writers
Students might complain about the University of Kansas' harsh terrain, but without it, they might be faced with an undesired class requirement — physical education.
"The myth for not having a physical education program is that we have the hill," said Kathleen McCluskey-Fawcett, associate provost.
McCluskey-
Fawcett said she
didn't know the
real reason why.
Claudia Meng. Garden City senior, said physical education was vital for students, but those who like it have already incorporated it into their schedules. She said she agreed with the University's policy of allowing students to choose whether
"The myth
for not having a physical education program is that we have the hill."
Kathleen McCluskey- Fawcett,
associate provost
to take physical education classes.
"We are old enough to decide," she said.
Wayne Osness, professor of physical education, said physical education had never been a requirement at the University, but 3,000 to 4,000 students take it as an elective.
"It's better that way," he said. "Only students who really want to be there attend."
Big 12 Conference counterpart Baylor University, however, doesn't adhere to that philosophy. The campus, which doesn't have nearly the vertical climb as does the University of Kansas, requires physical education for all students.
"We prepare a well-rounded individual," said Joyce Miller, coordinator for academic advisement at Bavior.
Miller said that Baylor students enrolled in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences were required to take a minimum of one and a maximum of four physical education classes.
John Faribault, director of the non-major human performance program at Baylor, said the college offered everything from aerobics to yoga to self-defense.
"Students enjoy the classes because they are opportunities for them to meet new people and to socialize," he said.
The University of Missouri doesn't require students to take physical education courses because it doesn't offer them anymore. The activity

Local group continues fight for Peltier's release

Kansan staff writer
The Lawrence-based Leonard Peltier Defense Committee considers Peltier a political prisoner and lobbies for his immediate release. The defense committee was hopeful that Clinton would offer long-awaited amnesty at the end of his administration.
A local organization fighting for the release of Leonard Peltier, a prisoner at Leavenworth Federal Penitentiary, will have to continue its battle because Peltier was denied a presidential pardon Saturday.
Peltier, a Native-American activist, was convicted in 1977 on two counts of first degree murder and is serving two consecutive life sentences.
Gina Chiala, defense committee employee, said the group was trying to absorb the decision.
But she said the committee was still pursuing other avenues and pushing for Peltier's release.
"The FBI is still withholding 6,000 documents which would probably lead to his release," Chiaila said. "We also have a lawsuit against the federal parole commission
for not releasing him."
Peltier was last denied parole in June 2000 and will not be eligible again until 2008.
reservation as a part of the American Indian Movement. Members of the movement were stationed at the ranch to protect reservation residents from the intolerable violence that was occurring, Chiala said.
In 1975, Peltier was a young activist staying on the Jumping B Bull Ranch on Pine Ridge

shootout turned into a gun battle involving 30 Native Americans and 150 FBI agents, according to the defense committee's Web site.
Two officers and one Native-American man were killed. The death of the Native American, who was an activist, was not investigated.
Ramey traveled to a freedom walk in New York on Dec. 10 aimed at promoting awareness of Peltier's case. The walk marked the anniversary of the University of the United Nations' signing the declaration of human rights. Ramey said that about 3,500 people attended the walk, hopeful that Peltier would be released soon.
"What people should remember is that 73 native people were killed in the Reign of Terror that led up to the incident," he said.
"This would have been the best chance to apologize," Ramey said. "This just keeps the injustice going and going and going."
The Reign of Terror, Ramey said, was violence that occurred between the tribal police force and reservation residents.
Chiala said that she did not know why Peltier would not have been granted a pardon.

The FBI maintained its stance that Peltier was rightfully imprisoned.
Chiala said that she did not know why Peltier would not have been granted a pardon. Amnesty International also considered Peltier a political prisoner and had called for his immediate release.

Four suspects arrested in Meadowbrook thefts
Four Topeka men were booked into the Douglas County Jail Saturday on charges of burglary, theft and criminal damage.
Lawrence police Det. John Lewis said police officers were called to a burglary in progress in the Meadowbrook apartment complex, located near 15th Street and Crestline Drive. Meanwhile, an officer stopped a car traveling east on Ninth Street and saw excess stereo equipment in the back. Lewis said it appeared the men had been interrupted while breaking into cars.
Lewis said the men, Luis Manuel Ceja, 20; Rafael Luna Cardona, 20; ismael Artega-Solis, 18; and Jimmy Sanchez Reyes, 20, were suspects in three or four car break-ins in the Meadowbrook complex.
Artega-Solis was released from the jail yesterday because the district attorney did not file charges. Reyes, Cardona and Ceja were kept in the jail yesterday on criminal charges. Bond amounts were not given because the suspects were being detained by the Department of Immigration.
A jail employee said Ceja and Reyes were both charged with two felony counts of burglary, theft and criminal damage, and one misdemeanor count of criminal damage and theft. Cardona was charged with aiding and abetting in the crimes.

HUTCHINSON — A day after crews sealed a leaking natural gas storage cavern, geologists grappled yesterday with how to vent a massive gas bubble still spewing through geysers that have erupted in the city.
Drilling was underway on two of the four deep vent wells planned around town, even as state environmental regulators debated whether to uncap some of the 150 to 300 abandoned wells in an effort to speed the release of trapped gas.
At the same time, the search for other sources that might be feeding the underground gas plume has intensified as the Kansas Department of Health and Environment began punching the first of six to eight of its own observation wells in the region.
"We are continuing the assess other potential sources," said KDHE representative Mike Heideman. "People have jumped to the conclusion the facility that has been the focus is the only source."
Group protests abortion on anniversary of decision
TOPEKA — Abortion opponents walked the halls of the Statehouse on yesterday, urging an end to abortion.
The events, which were to include a rally, were timed with the 28th anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court's Roe vs. Wade ruling. The ruling legalized abortion throughout the nation.
Organizers from the group Kansans for Life handed out information about anti-abortion efforts, including literature about the stages of life and abortion procedures.
Children circulated, handing out red roses to each of the 165 state legislators.
On Friday, a group of legislators spoke to abortion-rights advocates in a meeting sponsored by the Kansas Choice Alliance as part of its Women's Health Day.
Senate Majority Leader Lana Oleen, R-Manhattan, said she expects bills to be filed this session to rewrite a state law designed to restrict late-term abortions. Anti-abortion activists argue the law contains loopholes and doesn't limit abortion.

WOODLAND PARK, Colo. — Four of the seven convicts who broke out of a Texas prison last month and reportedly gunned down a policeman on
A fifth inmate committed suicide after barricading himself in a mobile home surrounded by authorities, Teller County Sheriff Frank Fehn said. The whereabouts of the two other inmates were unknown.
The heavily armed inmates — including murderers, rapists and armed robbers — had puzzled and alarmed authorities by remaining together after bluffing their way out of prison Dec. 13.
Authorities said a tip prompted by the show America's Most Wanted led to the capture. The show had featured the convicts four times since the escape, including the last three Saturday nights.
WASHINGTON — Opening the White House for business President Bush pleased conservative supporters yesterday by imposing strict restrictions on U.S. money to international family-planning groups involved in abortion.

Pushing his education and tax-cutting proposals, too, Bush told senior aides, "We are not here just to mark time."

Bush: limited aid to international family planning groups
Abortion-rights groups accused Bush of "bending to the will of the far right" by reinstating limitations on U.S. aid that his father and former President Ronald Reagan had imposed.
The first major act of his presidency reversed
actions by the Clinton administration and dominated media attention, an early test of his ability to govern from the middle while appeasing his conservative base.
"This policy recognizes our country's long history of providing international health care services, including voluntary family planning to couples around the world who want to make free and responsible decisions about the number and spacing of their children," read a statement by press secretary Ari Fleischer.
Bush had cautiously addressed the abortion issue during his GOP campaign, concerned about alienating swing voters.

Not every KU student agrees with the University's policy though.

He said because physical education was required in high school, there was no reason the requirement shouldn't be raised to the college

Armed robber takes $6,000 from student
By Lauren Brandenburg writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer.
A 20-year-old Lawrence man who attended the University of Kansas last semester was robbed at gunpoint at his apartment last week in the 2900 block of West 15th Street. Lawrence police said
Det. John Lewis said management from the apartment complex contacted the police after residents requested their locks be changed. Lewis said the case, which involved what he called "suspicious circumstances," had been mislabelled within the department, keeping the report from being available until this week.
The victim, Justin Rapp, who is taking this semester off of school, said he was still not sure how the incident happened.
Rapp described the incident in this way: He and some friends were watching TV when someone knocked on the door. Rapp checked his security monitor and opened the door because the man appeared to be someone he was expecting.
Two other men were with him, and after they pushed their way into his apartment, the first one pulled out a gun. Rapp said. They demanded bis money, gun and camera.
He wasn't.
"They seemed to know what I had in my house before they came in." Rapp said.
Lewis said Rapp and his four friends who were visiting were forced to lie on the floor and then forced into the bathroom while the men took the items. He said Rapp and his friends left the bathroom after they heard the men leave.
Rapp said the three men left with $6,000 in cash,
his safe, an SKS assault rifle, DVDs and jewelry.
They also took some of his friends' coats. He estimated
the total value of the items at $7,555.
Rapp said he had talked with police since the incident. He said he did not know how the men knew what he would have in his apartment.
"Someone I trust has been off running their mouth." Rapp said.
He said he thought someone he knew might have mentioned the items at a party while intoxicated, and perhaps the men had overheard. He said he and his roommate had bought the camera about a month ago because they owned valuable things, and the camera was an inexpensive way to ensure their protection.
Rapp did not know what to think of the robbery, he said, because he did not have any problems or grudges with anyone.
"I don't think I deserve this," he said.
Det. Lewis said the police had descriptions of the three suspects, and that the case had been forwarded to the district attorney's office and the drug enforcement unit.

Brown Bag Classics jazz up lunchtime

There may be no free lunches, but the department of music and dance is doing what it can to make students' lunch hour a little more entertaining.
Brown Bag Classics, a free, lunchtime concert series showcasing student and faculty performers, will be presented weekly this semester. The half-hour concerts are scheduled for Wednesdays from 12:30 to 1 p.m., at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union. Organizers encourage guests to bring lunches; the Union will provide soft drinks and water.
The program, which began last semester, aims to educate as well as to entertain, said Michelle Bullins,
department of music and dance staff member. The performers discuss the works they play and answer questions from the audience.
Guy Montes, Port-au-Prince, Haiti, sophomore, is among the students slated to perform. Montes said he was excited to gain experience in performing and to express his thoughts on music.
"I see it as an opportunity for me to reach students and make them understand what music is about," Montes said.
"The response has been great," Bullins said. "The goal of bringing music to a wider audience is happening."
Mike Hall, assistant professor of trombone, will perform tomorrow. He hopes to also receive a good response. Hall, a trombonist, plans to relate the improvisational aspects of

Depression needs treatment

Kansan staff writer
John Houghton had trouble getting out of bed everyday. He did not eat or sleep regularly. This was not the flu or the blues — Houghton, Overland Park sophomore, suffered from depression.
According to John Wade, psychologist at Counseling and Psychological Services, a lot of students suffer from depression at the University of Kansas.
many students come into Watkins for treatment of depression," Wade said. "It is a common problem for students."
Wade said signs of depression were loss of appetite, sleeping more than usual, a feeling of hopelessness, loss of interest in enjoyable activities, and unusual irritability.
Houghton said that when he had suffered from depression he could not function or go to class.
"I stayed in my dorm room all day because I had no desire to do anything." Houghton said. "I skipped all my classes and my grades slipped. I just did no care about anything."
Frank DeSalvo, director of CAPS, said that causes of depression varied from situational circumstances to more serious circumstances.
"Often the causes of depression come from circumstances that happens in one's life, such as a relationship that went sour or homesickness," DeSalvo said. "This is known as situational depression. Long-term depression is more serious in severity. The person is really unable to function."
Wade said that depression can also be

Symptoms of depression can include:
■ Loss of appetite

■ Unusual irritability

caused by physiological circumstances.
"Some people biochemically have more of a predisposition toward depression because they have more of a biochemical imbalance," Wade said.
CAPS offers a number of services to treat depression, including individual and group therapy. Psychiatric services are also offered.
Linda Keeler, psychiatrist at CAPS, treats many severe cases of depression by prescribing medication.
"Anti-depressants prescribed to students work toward relieving the symptoms of depression and help students to cope with it." Keeler said.
To be eligible for services at CAPS, a student must be enrolled at the University and have paid the student health fee. The first therapy session is free and each additional session is $9. CAPS is open Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Tuesday and Thursday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Houghton said he encouraged students who suffer from depression to get help.
Exhaustion, iron deficiency signs of students' anemia
—Edited by Jason McKee
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Jen Bills, Topeka senior, said anemia caused extreme exhaustion and made it hard to function.
Fatigue is a central part of a student's life when juggling school and work. However, if a student experiences too much fatigue, it might be the result of anemia.
"Anemia made it extremely hard to walk to campus without getting out of breath," Bills said. "I was always tired."
Anemia is defined as a low blood cell count which is caused by lack of iron in the blood.
Bills was treated at Watkins with iron supplements and advisement about her diet.
"I was told to eat foods high in iron such as spinach, green leaf vegetables and meat," Bills said. "I was also told to take an iron supplement."
Symptoms of anemia include extreme fatigue accompanied by fever and low endurance.
"Anemia can cause students to have trouble keeping up with day-to-day activities because of extreme exhaustion," said Randall Rock, physician at Watkins Memorial Health Center.
Atn Chapman, nutrition director at Watkins, said a healthy diet and a
LOW ON IRON
Anemia causes iron deficiencies, which can leave students with chronic fatigue and physical exhaustion.
Students can increase their iron levels by eating more meats or green vegetables such as spinach, or iron-fortified cereals and grains.
Students who suffer from anemia can also add iron to their diets by taking iron supplements.
lot of iron could help prevent and fight anemia.
"A good diet, which consists of iron-fortified foods such as cereals, grains and red meat, can help students get back their energy," Chapman said.
Rock advises students who have symptoms of anemia to come to Watkins.
"Anemia should be checked and can be dangerous in the sense that it can decrease someone's endurance level and can make it hard to function under chronic fatigue," Rock said.
Bills said that students should be aware of anemia.
"It is a problem that students do not think about, especially those who have poor eating habits." Bills said.

Sensationalist television spurs irresponsibility
Our culture is in trouble. Fox's Temptation Island is proof of that.
If you haven't heard, four couples at crossroads in their relationships go to an island full of half-naked singles to see if they are really meant to be. These stories are filmed for our viewing pleasure. This show comes after the Who Wants to Marry a Multi-Millionaire? fiasco, when Fox promised it would never air another show that was "exploitative and reeks of desperation or anything that's merely out for ratings."
So how is Fox trying to explain this one? Apparently the show "is important for the exploration of the strength of relationships." I heard simple communication is good for the strength of a relationship, but that won't get ratings. It doesn't matter that
they are trying to disguise the show with fancy sheep's clothing; it's a wolf waiting to devour these couples' dignity and integrity.
As for reality, all people on the show are `STD-free. They were tested. Fox wanted to make sure it was an authentic island, full of hot singles — you know, those islands where no one transmits diseases.
Matt Cox columnist opinion@kansan.com
How Practices for paved the way for safer sex. Gone not only is integrity and dignity, but also responsibility. Wow, that's so real.
Temptation Island embodies our pitiful culture. We're only a few neurotic scriptwriters away from an actual Truman Show. But when our version hits, we'll be so desensitized that the networks will unanimously pass the idea. Why? Because network executives govern our morality. We blankly stare at our TVs night after night, accepting whatever moral code they present.
Ironically, as we university students try to gain knowledge and improve society, we are mindless lemmings who love to shout open-mindedness on campus. Yet we let Hollywood think for us.
In the past 10 years, advertising agencies and the big networks have shifted their target audience from the 27-32 age group to the 14-21 group. But trying to please a less mature audience, with a shorter attention span, means producing a product that is the same: immature and sensational. So it's no surprise that we've seen the decay of quality television as executives target a younger audience.
The bigger problem is our mindset. The more we involve ourselves in reality TV, the more we subconciously declare that we don't want our own life — we want what's on TV. But that televised substitute is short-lived and eventually needs a replacement. That's why MTV's *The Real World* was OK for a while, but then we needed Survivor. Now that the Survivor part of our attention span has been captured, we need something even more edgy.
We need more extreme shows because we don't know how to be satisfied. It's like alcoholism. We're all drunk with sensationalism and we need to get out. Most of you thinking that my diagnosis is a bunch of cran are most likely too far gone.
I'm not really upset that Tempation Island is a real show; I'm disgusted. The arrival of a show like this isn't surprising, given the increased cultural trend of "redefining" everything from God to morality. This 1990s trend redefined moral codes to fit various lifestyles, eliminating conviction and responsibility in the process. We want the sex but not the diseases. We want success but not the invasion of privacy. We want the lifestyle but not the bills. Sooner or later you'll face the consequences of your actions, physical or mental. Realize this now.
"What's good for you may not be good for me, and that's fine," some say. I refuse to accept that.
There are absolutes. We just find new and exciting ways to redefine them to fit selfish ambitions and desires. It's sad when we humans, mistake-ridden earthlings, hold ourselves up as the standard for making decisions.
I'm not trying to change your mind; I'm just trying to open it, along with your eyes.

Perspective
Dishonor could cloud some honor societies
Should you join every honor society you can? No. Read on to avoid wasting money on dishonorable "honor societies."
Each semester, millions of dollars are spent nationwide by students paying to join such organizations. While dressing up a resume is certainly a laudable goal, there is an objective way to measure the value of an honor society and whether to join.
First, ask why you are joining. There are two common reasons: reputation and involvement.
Harnessing the prestige of an honor society reputation is a reason to join. However, not all of them are worthy in this respect — the name alone is not worth the $60 membership fee — especially when the eligibility requirements are unclear or worse yet, overly inclusive so that anyone with a pulse and a middling GPA can join.
BARRY KENDAL
Some honor societies will sell your name to marketing companies or include you in "special" offers for credit cards, emblazoned society clothing (Does anyone actually wear this stuff in public?) and other useless status symbols. This is particularly dishonorable because the new member is essentially paying to be targeted by product peddlers and sweatshirt solicitors.
Scott Kaiser columnist opinion@xansan.com
If you're paying for the reputation, it should be worth the membership fee. So look for eligibility requirements that go beyond GPA. After all, if membership depends solely on GPA, then why not just
dut your GPA on your resume?
Consider Golden Key's eligibility requirements. To join Golden Key, you must be a KU junior or senior, in the top 15 percent of your class (which is a GPA of 3.3) and a full- or part-time KU student. Clearly, this is nothing more than a GPA-based honor society for juniors and seniors. You won't impress anyone who knows the eligibility requirements any more than if you just stated your GPA. All you are saying is, "Hey, I got at least a 3.3 and I spent $60." Inserting Golden Key into your resume is redundant, and thus a waste of money and paper space. But not everything is about dressing up
But not everything is about dressing up a resume. The fulfillment we get from contributing our time to activities we find valuable is another good reason to join an honor society.
Golden Key, for example, is honorable if you're looking for lectures on career development and social interaction with other members. Here, the issue is whether the experience gained through involvement is exclusive to the organization. For example, joining an honor society because it offers an opportunity to do community service is not a good reason to join because it is not exclusive to that society.
Your $60 membership fee could be better applied as a direct donation to a charity, and not to some black hole called "national chapter dues." Or you could just volunteer without joining the honor society at all.
How do you recognize an honorable honor society? A good honor society offers a tangible reputation and unique experiences. Anything less is a reason to save your money and prevent dishonoring yourself.

Editorial
Dog park a welcome addition
The large space near Clinton Lake would complement South Park.
Last week, the Lawrence City Commission voted 5-0 in favor of letting the Lawrence Parks and Recreation proceed with their plans of opening a new dog park near Clinton Lake State Park. This park is a great idea to accommodate the residents of Lawrence who quickly are running out of areas to let their dogs run free.
At one time South Park, off Massachusetts Street, was a place where residents could let their dogs run, but Lawrence citizens voiced concerns about the condition of the park.
Residents were concerned with the dogs tearing up the grass and defecating all over the park without it being cleaned up. Moreover, South Park has been seen as somewhat of a monument in the city of Lawrence, and people want to conserve it.
In response, the Lawrence Parks and Recreation Commission drafted plans to allocate 30 to 40 acres of land including bathroom areas and parking lots to a new dog park. The new park is located north of the Clinton Lake spillway.
This park is exactly what this city needs to accommodate the residents who have dogs and want to let them run free of their leashes.
Some residents are still concerned about the fact that the land was allocated to this group and the potential dog feces mess. Overall, however, this park will benefit many of the residents of Lawrence as well as their dogs.
Another positive aspect of this project is its relatively low cost. There will be some rules drawn up for the park that will include registering your dog, keeping it out of fights, and cleaning up after it. These rules will help keep the area nice and clean.
This dog park will be another great addition to our city for years to come.

Letters to the Editor
Many scholarship hall residents support Watkins Hall lawsuit
Interim director of university relations Lynn Bretz is cited in Wednesday's issue of the Kansan ("Bank challenges hall lawsuit") as arguing that the lawsuit filed by residents of Watkins Scholarship Hall didn't necessarily represent the feelings of those who lived in the scholarship halls.
Well, it's true that it doesn't necessarily represent our feelings — the Department of Student Housing hasn't exactly been polling us for our views - but that statement makes the residents sound like extremists.
I'm confident that many, if not most, scholarship hall residents are in full support of our sisters in Watkins. They have a legitimate position, and their dedication to the spirit of Watkins is made clear in their tenacious persistence in the face of University and Bank of America opposition.
The scholarship halls are not divided in our dedication to the preservation of our living community, and it is for that preservation that the Watkins women wage legal war.
Aaron D. Profitt
resident of Grace Pearson Scholarship Hall
If University has nothing to hide why not open Watkins records?
Hello, my name is Cheryl Funke, and I am proud to say that I am an alumna of the University and of the scholarship hall system. I had the opportunity and pleasure to live in Miller Hall for 31/2 years during my tenure at KU. I now live in Menlo Park, Calif., where I regularly read the Kansas through the Web site.
I was glad to see that the lawsuit filed by the women of Watkins was gaining some recognition on campus. I do not agree with Lynn Bretz's comment regarding the handling of the trust. Both of these buildings are very old, yet a very important part of the University history.
Without proper maintenance and remodeling, they will face major structural and living condition problems in the future. They are two of the very few buildings on campus that still do not have central air (or even window units in most of the buildings), yet they probably have the most money behind them to provide that amenity.
I also do not agree with Ms. Bretz's comment that this was filed by a few women and does not represent everyone's feelings. She is correct to an extent that all of the women may not be concerned, but there is a large number of Miller and Watkins current residents and alumni who are very concerned about the future of those halls.
The women who have filed the lawsuit are not seeking to gain total control of the trust, as some university officials have implied. They are seeking the right to have a look at the books and see where the money is being spent and have their voices heard for major decisions.
If the University, the housing department and the bank have nothing to hide, what is the harm in letting qualified alumni look at the books?

'Armchair Aristotle' in Free for All shows blatant disregard for elderly
Story about Watkins lawsuit told only University's side of story
What a biased report on the suit by Watkins Scholarship Hall residents against the Bank of America's administration of the trust for the hall! You quoted the bank's attorney and the interim director of University Relations.
Nancy Marie Wood
I occasionally check out the Free for All column in search of the rare pearl of wisdom buried in the muck that you dredge from the murky depths of a few very shallow minds. Most of the peurle musings elicit a yawn, but a comment in Wednesday's column really raised my hackles.
It seems one armchair Aristotle believes that "the problem with Lawrence is there are no old ladies to spit on." Perhaps the caller was simply trying to impress your readers with his rapier wilt, or perhaps he was truly venting a hatred of our elders. No matter his motivation, that the Kansan would publish such dreek is disappointing.
The residents themselves may rightly refuse to comment, but what about their attorney, Donald Strole? Did you contact him? You don't even name him.
Editor's note: The reporter attempted repeatedly to reach Donald Strole, but he was on vacation and unable to be reached for comment.
Had the caller targeted a particular ethnic group or the disabled, we'd be outraged by his comment, and justifiably so. I suspect, however, that most readers were not outraged by the comment, supporting my thesis that deprivation of the elderly is still acceptable to many in this culture.
William O. Scott professor of English
Let me remind the caller that many of those same old ladies that he so reviles probably changed his nappies, taught him his ABCs and have paid taxes, which help support the university, which provides him his forum to spew his hateful commentary. If fate is kind, he, too, might one day be elderly. I hope for his sake that he will be afforded more respect than he apparently affords our elders.

Opinion editor's column reflects liberal leanings of Kansan staff
When Chris Borniger equated George W. Bush with a monkey (such in-depth, professional opinion writing) in the first issue of the Kansan ("2001; the year Dubya blasts into space") this semester, I knew it was going to be another long semester for conservatives on campus. Wednesday's editorial ("Cabinet choices place Bush on divisive path") only confirms this.
Claims that Bush's cabinet leans heavily to the right ignore such moderate appointees as Colin Powell, Christine Todd Whitman, and Condoleezza Rice. Moreover, why should Ashcroft's faith and beliefs prevent him from leading the Justice Department?
When Joe Lieberman was selected as a candidate for vice president, no one questioned whether his devout Jewish beliefs would interfere with his duty to the country. Why can Ashcroft not be given the same chance? While in the Senate it was his right to express his personal beliefs while trying to shape laws; the Attorney General, however, must objectively enforce all laws on the books, and Ashcroft knows this.
The question that be asked to be asked is, why did the people of Missouri (a "toss-up" state in terms of liberal vs. conservative) elect this "radical religious conservative" attorney general and senator? Why didn't they ship him back to the Third Reich, where he apparently belongs?
Liberals out there who are clamoring for Bush to be nice to them should remember that bipartisanship is a two-way street (their support for it seemed to last almost two days). They're not after cooperation, though. As Patrick Burger noted ("Texas record displays Bush's power to unite," Wednesday), they only want to see a Republican president fail. If they want conservatives to cooperate with them, perhaps they should accept the hand that is extended to them, rather than labeling its owner a racist, sexist, overzealous Christian.

Housing ordinance would make rental prices in Lawrence skyrocket
This is a reply to an article written by Robert Chamberlain about the housing ordinance ("Stop whining about the housing ordinance." Thursday).
Your argument makes sense, but it has one major flaw — the economic effects of this change both to students and nonstudents. As a business major, I have a good knowledge of supply and demand. Therefore, if you lower the supply (decrease living space) and increase demand (ordinance will increase people looking), prices will skyrocket.
with roommates.
Theoretically, if you cut supply in half, prices would double. Aren't rising tuition costs and expensive books enough pain for us, the students? I can barely afford my apartment at current prices, and I am sure there are a lot of people in the same boat as I am, even
This ordinance will induce students to work more (to pay the bills) and thereby reducing the grade point average of the school in proportion to the increase in students working. Most parents have a hard time paying what they do now. Therefore, the city is making a choice between the welfare of the parents or that of the students, and that is neither fair nor right.
As far as the homeowners, they decided to live in a college town, and they know what that entails. Yes, there some noisy parties and the like, but those have little to do with the number of people living there. If homeowners feel the value of their homes is lower because of students' actions, then they need to talk to their homeowners association, ACC or whatever. They are the people responsible for the communities. If someone is in violation, then citations/fines should occur.
By the way, my home is here in Lawrence, I pay taxes to Douglas County, and I am registered to vote here, too.

Editorial board's negative response to Ashcroft regurgitates liberal lies
It is quite clear that the Kansan editorial board leans to the left on the political spectrum, and whether they agree or disagree, most KU students could have easily guessed the board's position on John Ashcroft's nomination even before Thursday's editorial.
So why did you bother writing it? We already knew where you stood. Thursday's editorial simply restates all the liberal arguments we've heard for the past few weeks. The purpose of an editorial is to inform and persuade its readers, but you're going to have to do a lot more than regurgitate the liberal mantra if you want to do either.
If you want to convince me that John Ashcroft should not be confirmed, you're going to have to stop ignoring and start dealing with the very compelling facts that belie your position.
Your editorial clearly implies that Ashcroft opposed the confirmation of a Missouri justice to a seat on the federal bench simply because that justice was black. Yet you ignore the now well-known fact that Ashcroft voted to confirm the vast majority of African-American appointees to the federal bench he was presented with. Your inability to deal with all the facts makes your editorials come off as propaganda.

Corporations pose the real threat to survival of small family farms
I grew up on a farm in rural Kansas and would love to keep the family farm going. One statement in Sarah Smarsh's article about family farms bothered me ("Students struggle with leaving family farms," Friday). She said the exasperated mentality of today's potential farmers may pose a threat to family farms. This is inaccurate. While we may be exasperated, that mentality is not a threat posed to family farming.
The frustrating reality of the agricultural economy is a better description of why farm kids don't continue the family tradition. Chadd Clary said he's not going into farming for practical reasons. Private farming is not a practical career choice for most of us potential farmers. Here's why.
Bill Wood said corporate farming was the main threat to family farms. He was right. A corporation has advantages a private farmer doesn't. A farm manager could compete with corporate farms if his operation was as large as the corporation's and he owned the machinery used on it. A small new combine costs about $140,000; a good used one is about $85,000. It takes a long time to pay off a loan that large.
This is why my heart will always be on our family farm, but my livelihood is in the city.
Bush needs to continue Clinton's respect for all types of people
JuliAnn Schmidt
Esbon senior
During an event at the National Mall, one could not ignore the backdrop chosen by President William Jefferson Clinton. The National Mall in Washington, D.C., is home to memorials commemorating
presidents Thomas Jefferson, George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, as well as Korean War and Vietnam veterans. President Clinton, however, stood before the monument of Franklin Delano Roosevelt. The F.D.R. Memorial is extensive, featuring four outdoor rooms — one for each of Roosevelt's presidential terms. President Clinton stood next to the statue of Roosevelt in his wheelchair.
most of us will never understand what it's like to be handicapped or disabled like President Roosevelt. Few of us can comprehend the overt and subtle discrimination that attends such a status. Of President Roosevelt, it is frequently said that he never would have been president had the American public been able to see him on television in a wheelchair.
This statement echoes on into today by looking up the opposites "ability" and "disability" in any thesaurus. The negative connotations of disability and handicap are endless. Nowhere in the thesaurus entry for disability is "Roosevelt-esque" or "Helen Keller-like."
For President Clinton, there is not a note of hypocrisy in standing before this monument. During his two terms in office, he has been a consistent advocate of dignity for all people. The president has stood against discrimination in all of its forms. The landscape is changing in Washington, D.C. Saturday, President George W. Bush proceeded down Pennsylvania Avenue from the Capitol to the White House.
We should all invite the new president to continue the tenure of respect for individuals of all types. Perhaps he, too, will find himself inspired by the memorials on the National Mall, including that memorable statue of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt.

Supreme Court didn't overstep its bounds in *Roe v. Wade* ruling
Undermining democracy? If columnist Robert Chamberlain claims that Roe v. Wade undermines democracy ("Roe v. Wade undermines democracy," yesterday), maybe this right-wing conservative should open his eyes to our newly appointed president. George W. Bush won the electoral vote, but more than half of the popular vote voted for the other guy. Is that "ignoring" the opinion of more than half of America?
Another thing that is absolutely redundant is the view of our president himself. He thinks that our country is not at the right time to completely abolish abortion, yet he believes he would like something done about it during his term in office. When will these high government officials realize that it is a woman's body and that it should always be a woman's choice?
Chamberlain said it himself. "The Supreme Court is designed to interpret the Constitution, not to create laws." So he determined the Court should intervene to destroy laws and create a tolerance to outlaw abortion completely?
Furthermore, Chamberlain asserts that a woman's right to choose is a "fictitious right." This "fictitious right" is as logical as any other freedom. It would be a sad state of affairs if our future generations of daughter's bodies were to be controlled the government because their rights were taken away by our generation. That is what I fear above all, Mr. Chamberlain.

Housing ordinance is just attempt to discriminate against students
Robert Chamberlain's opinion on the students lacking reasons to speak out against the housing ordinance sounds great ("Stop whining about the housing ordinance." Thursday), except for one small factor.
Yes, the students don't vote, they don't maintain their property very well, and rentals do in fact drop property values. The problem is that this ordinance is blatantly discriminatory. No more than two unrelated residents? Who else does that apply to other than students?
The city is attempting to mandate directly against a specific group. But because it is "self-righteous" students, rather than Blacks or gays or labor union officials, nobody seems to mind stepping on a few civil rights. It is disgraceful for the governing body of an otherwise open-minded community to ignore the discrimination this regulation represents.

'Hawks declare end of road demons
By Chris Wristen
By Chris Wristen

BOULDER, Colo. — If Kansas fans learned anything about their No. 4 Jayhawks last night, they learned the 'Hawks can win on the road something last year's squad struggled with.
"We were kidding ourselves when we thought we were giving it our all last year," said senior center Eric Chenowith. "This year we are giving our all. That's why we're winning big games."
The 'Hawks (16-1 overall and 5-0 in the Big 12 Conference) got a big one last night when they downed the Buffaloos 85-75 in the Coors Events Center. The game marked Kansas' third road win in the Big 12 out of three tries this year.
The Jayhawks lost four conference road games last year, but sophomore point guard Kirk Hinrich said the road demons were gone.
"We're just so much more experienced than we were last year." Hinrich said. "We're basically the same team as last year. We've just gotten tougher. We played tougher down the stretch."
Kansas showed its muscle in the final minutes last night. The Jayhawks trailed by as many as seven points with 13 minutes left. Kansas scored and
Colorado answered repeatedly. Kansas ran and Colorado ran harder until back-to-back Chenwish lay-ins tied the game with 5:36 to play.
Then the Jayhawks dug deeper into their scoring reserves.
Five long-range three-pointers from junior guard Jeff Boschee kept the 'Hawks ticking early, but they still needed more.
"We just have so many guys on this team that anyone can score on any given night," Boschee said. "We can always count on somebody to step up."
That person was Hinrich, who answered the call when he hit a three-pointer in front of the Kansas bench on the next possession. That bucket drained the Buffaloos' gas tank once and for all.
Kansas is now 5-1 on the road, with the lone blemish coming at Wake Forest. The Jayhawks also have three wins this season on neutral courts. Kansas coach Roy Williams said winning on the road was key in the conference and said he thought his 'Hawks were just fine.
"Last year we were still OK on the road," Williams said. "We were 4-4 on the road in this league and you'd like to have been better than that. But sometimes if you go 4-4 and win all of your home games, then you have a chance to
Still, Chenowith knows that his team landed a big one in Boulder.
be the champion. We need to play every night, regardless of where it is."
"Big wins on the road are what make great teams," Chenwith said. "My freshman year that team won the conference because we won on the road."

Al Saunders to take reins of Chiefs' offense
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Al Saunders is back in Kansas City as Dick Vermeil's offensive coordinator and assistant head coach, promising to "attack, attack, attack."
Saunders, who was Marty Schottenheimer's receivers coach and assistant head coach with the Chiefs from 1989-98, served with Vermel at St. Louis on the staff of the Rams team that won last year's Super Bowl.
"We are in the attacking mentality on offense," said Saunders, who had maintained a home in Kansas City.
"If you're afraid, don't show up
because it's going to be fun," he said.
"What's important in this offense is this — it's going to be fun to play and fun to watch. People pay to see exciting football. Our players enjoy playing exciting football."
Saunders, who has coached 18 seasons in the NFL, was head coach of the San Diego Chargers from the middle of the 1986 season through the 1988 season.
He replaces fired offensive coordinator Jimmy Raye, whom漆othheimer hired to take the same job with the Washington Redskins. Last week, Vermilion hired former Denver defensive coordinator Greg
Robinson to replace the fired Kurt Schottenheimer as defensive coordinator.
Vermeil also announced several other additions to his staff yesterday. Charlie Joiner, a Hall of Fame receiver with San Diego and recently a receivers coach for Buffalo, was named receivers coach. James Saxon, a former Chiefs running back, will coach the running backs.
Peter Giunta, another member of Vermill's St. Louis staff, was named defensive backs coach. Vermill also made official what he had said earlier, that Carl Hairston would join Bob Karmelowicz to coach the defensive
line. Karmelowicz was one of a handful of coaches retained after Gunther Cunningham was fired as head coach on Jan. 5.
Saunder said his overall offensive approach would be to make the defense worry about every possibility.
"We are going to have a diversified system that allows us to use the personalities and playing skills of the best players on the team," he said. "We're going to get the ball in the hands of the playmakers and we're going to create motion, formations, shifting, and ways to attack defensive schemes and defensive personnel with the best people we have," he said.
Carruth sentenced to nearly 19 years
The Associated Press
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Rae Carruth was ordered yesterday to spend a minimum of almost 19 years in prison for his role in the ambush killing of his pregnant girlfriend.
Judge Charles Lamm sentenced the former NFL player after hearing emotional testimony from the parents of Cherica Adams. Adams was eight months pregnant when she was shot four times in her car in November 1999 on a Charlotte street. She died a month later.
The 21-year-old player stared at the judge, showing no emotion, as Lamm announced the sentence. Carruth nodded to onlookers as he left the courtroom. Carruth was sentenced to at least 18 years, 11 months, with a maximum of 24 years, four months. Defense attorney David Rudolf immediately filed notice of appeal.
Prosecutors said the former Carolina Panthers receiver set up the attack on Adams to avoid paying child support, using his car to block Adams' car so a hired gunman could shoot the 24-year-old woman.
Carruth was acquitted last week of first-degree murder — and was spared the possibility of the death penalty — but was found guilty of conspiracy to commit murder and two other offenses.
Cherica Adams' mother, Saundra, said she forges Carruth, but "in no way do I think he should get off easy for what he has done."
"He's already gotten the greatest of mercy — his life is spared," she said. "Let him take the punishment not of a little boy, but of a man one time. Let him know he needs some help."
She also testified that her year-old grandson, Chancellor, born prematurely by emergency Caesarean section after the shooting, has cerebral palsy.
Prosecutor Gentry Caudill noted that Carruth has shown "not one ounce of remorse" for Adams' death. "He offered no assistance as Cherica lay dying
"He entered no assistance as Chelsea lay dying from those wounds. Caudill said.
Carruth's mother, Theodry Carruth, said outside court that her son is innocent.
Carruth will be brought to Central Prison in Raleigh for processing and evaluation and could be sent to another prison, said Tracy Little, representative for the state Department of Correction
"I would like to hear why. I would like to know why," he said. "I'm still surprised he has not shown any reaction so far."

Adams' father, Jeffrey Moonie, said he was pleased with the outcome, but still had questions for Carnruth.

Fifth concussion forces Aggie to end career
COLLEGE STATION, Texas — After suffering his fifth concussion on Jan. 13, Texas &A.M. forward Aaron Jack has decided to end his collegiate basketball career, he said yesterday
"Aaron is a tremendous young man, and it's unfortunate that his long career had to end in this manner, but his health is the
top priority," said A&M coach Melvin Watkins. "Aaron is the epitome of what a student-athlete should be. To our young kids, he's been as much of a teacher and coach as he's been a teammate. We certainly wish him the best of luck and we know he has an outstanding future."
Jack played in four games as a true freshman at Penn State in 1995-96 before suffering a pair of concussions. He suffered his third concussion on the first day of fall practice in 1996 and transferred to A&M at mid-term.
On the third day of fall practice this season, Jack was hospitalized with his fourth concussion, but returned in time for the season opener on Nov. 18 against George
Washington. Finally, on Jan. 13 against Colorado, Jack suffered his fifth concussion early in the game.
As a junior, he averaged 8.2 points per game and a team-best 6.5 rebounds. He earned honorable mention All-Big 12 honors by the league's coaches.

joining CBS Sports as a game analyst and studio commentator for the NCAA tournament.
The television work appears to be a time-filler until the offseason, when Pitino is expected to land a coaching job, probably in college.
Pitino, coach of Kentucky's 1996 NCAA championship team, will partner play-by-play announcer Tim Brando for the first two rounds of the tournament, then move into the
studio for the rest.
"Rick will be a great addition to our NCAA tournament lineup." CBS Sports president Sean McManus said yesterday. "His analysis will be both informative and entertaining, based on his successful collegiate career and his previous work in television."
Pitino joined the Celtics in 1997, charged with reviving the once-proud franchise, but compiled only a 102-146 record in 31/2 seasons. When he left the team Jan. 8, he forfeited about $20 million left on his 10-year, $50 million contract.

a situation," Moss said. "This was totally out of character for me."
Coach Gale Catlett said yesterday that he would allow Moss to take an indefinite leave to "get his personal life in order." Catlett said the play
"He wants to take some time away from the team," Catlett said. "He's a great young man. He has never been a problem. Chris comes from a great family. I'm sure he will get this corrected and get on with his life."
Moss had to be restrained after foelling out during a 78-61 loss Sunday. Catlett sent assistant coach Lester Rowe to escort Moss to the locker room.
As Moss walked in front of the Notre Dame student section, fans began taunting him. He turned quickly and spit toward the crowd, hitting a female cheerleader sitting on the floor along the baseline.
Catlett wasn't aware that Moss had spit at the crowd until told by reporters after the game.
The coach said Moss has been frustrated because at 6-foot-8, he is playing out of position at center.
NHL MVP to undergo arthroscopic surgery
NHL
ST. LOUIS — Suddenly, the St.
Louis Blues have a lot of important
ice time to fill.
Chris Pronger, the NHL MVP and team captain, usually plays about half the game. He will undergo
arthroscopic surgery for torn cartilage in his left knee today and miss four to six weeks.
"Everybody gets a little more time," general manager Larry Pleau said. "The ones that are able to jump up, it's a chance for them."
Proner is averaging 28 minutes after leading the NHL with 30 minutes a game last season. He has six goals and a team-leading 35 assists and is plus-18 for the Blues, who are second overall in the standings with 67 points.
"I may have to take a vacation to get away and not have to watch much hockey for a while." Pronger
said. "Maybe come back when I'm ready to skate and get back in the flow. It's never any fun having to watch games from top up."
Prenger, who also won the Norris Trophy as the NHL's best defenseman last season, was injured when he made a check against Nashville at home Jan. 4 and teammate Tyson Nash accidentally banged into him.
He played nine games before he and the team decided on surgery, knocking him out of the Feb. 4 All-Star game. On Sunday, he played more than 30 minutes in a 3-1 loss at Nashville.

Vanover's accomplice to spend time in jail
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A Kansas City man was sentenced to four months in prison Monday for helping former Chiefs kick retainer Tamarick Vanover transport a stolen vehicle.
Norbert G. Scarlett, 28, also was sentenced to four months of home detention after he leaves prison.
Scarlett pleaded guilty to aiding and abetting the interstate transport of a stolen vehicle.
He admitted that on March 10, 1999, he drove a stolen Ford Expedition from Kansas City,Mo., to Lake City, Fla. on behalf of Vanover, who sold the vehicle to a third man. The vehicle had been stolen from a Kansas City Ford dealership.
Last November, Vanover, 26,
pleaded guilty to one federal count
of aiding and abetting the sale of a
stolen vehicle that crossed state
lines. He was sentenced to two
months in jail, two months in home
detention and three years under two
months in home detention and three
years under supervised release.

Top three teams remain same; Kansas moves to No.4
The Associated Press
Stanford, Duke and Michigan State were the top three teams in The Associated Press college basketball poll yesterday, the third straight week they have had those places.
Fresno State was No. 22 in the latest national media voting, the Bulldogs first appearance in the Top 25 since early in the 1997-98 season, while Texas returned at No. 20 after a one-week absence.
Stanford (17-0) was again the runaway choice at No. 1, receiving 68 first-place votes and 1,748 points. Stanford won its games against California and New Mexico last week by a total of 57 points.
Duke (17-1), which beat Boston College by 22 and Georgia Tech by 21, received two first-place votes and 1,677 points. Michigan State (15-1), which beat Ohio State 71-56 in its only game last week, had 1,607 points.
This is the seventh straight week those schools were in the top three. For two weeks, it was Duke, Michigan State and Stanford, and then it was Michigan State, Stanford
and Duke for two more weeks before the Cardinal took over the top spot.
Kansas and North Carolina each moved up one place from last week to be fourth and fifth.
Tennessee; which was the highest ranked team to lose last week — 84-74 to Kentucky — fell from fourth to sixth. Illinois and Maryland each moved up four spaces to seventh and eighth, while Wake Forest and Georgetown were ninth and 10th, switching places from last week.
Syracuse, which lost to Seton Hall on Sunday, fell three spots to lead the second ten and was followed by Arizona, Virginia, Florida Wisconsin, Seton Hall, Iowa State Alabama, Mississippi and Texas. The last five ranked teams were Iowa, Fresno State, Boston College Connecticut and Southern California.
Fresno State (16-2) enters the top 25 on a 12-game winning streak. The Bulldogs, who have started the Western Athletic Conference season 5-0, lost to St. Bonaventure in the second game of the season and then fell in double overtime to San Francisco.
The last time Fresno State was ranked was in 1997-98 when it was in the preseason poll and the first four of the regular season, getting as high as No.12.
Texas (15-3) was ranked for two weeks — 24th and 23rd — before falling out following a loss at Nebraska. The Longhorns have won three straight since, beating Connecticut, Texas A&M and Baylor.
Missouri (12-5) fell out of the rankings from No. 20 after being ranked for just one week. The Tigers lost road games this week to Kansas State and Virginia.
Oklahoma (13-4) is out of the top 25 for the first time this season. The Sooners, who got as high as 14th, fell out from 22nd after losing to Texas Tech, their third loss in four games.
The week's biggest jump was Iowa State's climb from 23rd to No.17 following wins over Colorado and Nebraska.
The biggest fall was Connecticut's drop from 15th to No.24. The Huskies lost to Texas and Miami last week, extending their losing streak to three games, all on the road.

The Associated Press
NEW YORK - Among the loving couples on Temptation Island, we hear a lot of talk about putting their relationships to the test. Burk
These turtledoves, like the seductive singles trying to bust them apart, came hoping to get some.
Fame that is
As Shakespeare observed four centuries ago, all the world's a stage. But today, too many people are auditioning for stardom. That's the lesson of television's reality-based shows.
Indeed, it's literally what propels PopStars, a new WB series that chronicles its own nationwide talent hunt. Last summer's blockbuster hit, Surviving, left most of
Is its castaway rush with clementry.
Will Temptation Island do the same?
Meet Andy and Shannon from Malibu, Calif. (together five years); Kaya and Valerie from Miami (a year and a half); Billy and Mandy from Atlanta (less than two years); Taheed and Yoszie from Los Angeles (five and a half years).
Last summer's blockbuster hit, *Survivor*, left most of its 16 castaways flush with celebrity.
But on Temptation Island, there's no need to remember them. These people perform as just physical types (the women are even color-coded: blonde, brunette, redhead and African-American, respectively). Young and buff, they serve the show simply as hardbodies. That goes double for the "fantasy singles."
On this new Fox series (airing Wednesday at 8 p.m.), four unmarried but-more-or-less-committed couples are testing their devotion by spending two weeks on a Caribbean island baited (as host Mark Walberg explains) with "26 fantasy singles chosen specifically to entice them."
This is not a show, as you will see, that is about sex," said Fox boss Sandy Grushow before Temptation Island premiered.
Oh, please. On Temptation Island, the primary lust is for fame.
If only he'd left it at that. But Grushow couldn't stop himself. "This," he went on, "is a show that is exploring the dynamics of serious relationships."

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Jan. 23). You've got talent; that's obvious. Now, prove you've also got common sense. Follow an older person's advice in February. Gather the loot in March. Make a down payment on permanence in May. Push yourself to work harder in July. Encouragement in October brings out your genius. Dance through the tulips in December.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 7. Take it easy at work. The rules may be too strict, but you are not likely to change them now.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is a 7.
Work out your strategy so you're ready to be a tough negotiator. If you'll be going to make what you think you're worth, you'll have to be able to prove it.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is an 8.
If you've been planning your life astrologically, you have just enough money to start on your world cruise.
If your New Year's resolution included becoming fabulously wealthy, get busy. Stash more into savings, in a place where it will grow.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 7.
You're used to having the spotlight, but not this time. You're better off now if a powerful, intellectual type stands up for you.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 7.
Your relationship should be well-established by now.
Why not launch a project you can work on together?
This could be for fun or for profit, or both.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Today is an 8.
Difficult issues need to be discussed, and some changes need to be made.
Scarpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 6.
Your house is full of change, ideas and opportunity. It may be so full, it's hard to move around.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 7.
Acquiring new technical skills would improve your financial situation and also impress your friends.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is a 6.
You've been so busy playing the game, you may not have had time to keep score, that's OK, but don't be
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is an 8.
You've been focused on finishing old business. Soon you'll know why. Something you've learned recently will be quite useful.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is a 7.
You should be writing your dreams down over the next few days. Your imagination will be fertile.
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.

Rocky road to victory in Boulder Buffs left baffled

BOULDER Colo. - Killer instinct.
After Eric Chenowith claimed his team was developing just that last week, the No.4 Jayhawks proved it to a national television audience last night in an 85-75 road win against the Buffaloes.
All of the tools were in place for Colorado to get its first home win against Kansas in 10 years. ESPN was there. So were 11,363 fans, the largest crowd to ever witness a basketball game in the Coors Events Center. An added bonus was that the Buffers were ready to play, creating the ultimate war zone environment.
Kansas (16-1 overall and 5-0 in the Big 12 Conference) stormed out to an early 17-8 lead that was fueled by two Jeff Boschee 3-pointers. That's when D.J. Harrison went
nuts, scoring eight points as Colorado (12-7, 2-4) went on a 15-2 run and claimed a 23-19 lead. The Jayhawks got sloppy and turned the ball over eight times in the half. The Buffaloes capitalized and continued to lead. Each time Kansas scored, Colorado had an answer.
"We weren't taking good shots in the first half," coach Roy Williams said. "We worked in down inside more in the second half and Bosche really hit some big three's for us."
Colorado still led 43-40 at halftime.
That's when things got ugly.
with kansas trailing 47-46 with 16:38 remaining, Jose Winston stole a Luke Axell pass and drove in for a layup. Nick Collision was whistled for an intentional foul that sent Winston to the floor, and later to the locker room.
"I just tried to make a play," Collison said. "I got my shoulder into him and my momentum took him down. I told him I was sorry afterward. I was just trying to get the ball."
Regardless, the confrontation ignited a heated exchange of words between Williams and Colorado coach Ricardo Patton and both head coaches were separated by the Colorado assistants.
Play resumed, but the gymnasium didn't cool down any as both teams continually traded baskets. Collison made a lay-in that was answered with a Justin Harbert 3-pointer. Boschee responded with a three of his own, but Harrison quickly drained a 24-footer at the other end.
"Kenny made an unbelievable play to keep the ball alive." Chenwith said. "When I got it I just tried to take it back up."
The Jayhawks kept fighting, though, and the upset-minded Buffaloes began to run out of steam. Kansas clipped away at a seven point Colorado lead with two slashing layups by Kenny Gregory and three baskets by Chenowith, one of which tied the game at 71.
Chenowith's late buckets squeezed the life from the worn-down Buffalofoes,

but it was a three-pointer by Kirk Hinrich with 4:49 remaining that put the final arrow through the heart. Kansas built a 78-71 lead and Colorado never got any closer.
"It was a game that was hard-fought by both teams," Williams said. "I don't know how much they had left but we didn't have much left in the tank."
Collison admitted that it wasn't Kansas' best performance of the year, but it was a win he said the team would happily take.
"We weren't playing horribly." Collison said, "but we weren't out there
Collison said, "but we weren't out there pressing. In the second half we tied it up. We just did what we needed to in order to win."
Kansas had five players score in double-digits, led by Bоссеech's 21, thanks in part to five 3-pointers.
The win was Kansas' 23rd straight against Colorado, 11th straight in Boulder
and 100th in the all-time series.
■ Kansas outrebounded Colorado 48-47, led by Gooden's 12 boards. The Jayhawks are 16-0 this season when getting more rebounds than their opponents.
Hinrich's 11 assists give him 30 in the last three games, all Kansas wins.
Tinsley leads Cyclones to wins

When the NBA comes calling in June, Iowa State point guard Jamaal Tinsley should be ready.
In Saturday's game against the 'Huskers, Tinsley's passing helped beat Nebraska on the final play of the game. He hit Martin Rancik cutting to the basket, who made the winning layup as time expired.
Tabbed as the preseason Big 12 Conference Player of the Year, he has kept the No. 17 Cyclones (15-3 overall and 3-2 in the Big 12) in the upper half of the conference, and was named the player of the week for his performances against Nebraska and Colorado.
Although Tinsley might not be worried about much, opposing coaches
"I told him to go in." Tinsley said. "I knew that it was good. The refs saw it and said it counted, and I wasn't worried at all."
BIG 12 CONFERENCE XII
have to worry about him all the time. In an 84-68 pounding of Colorado on Jan. 16, Tinsley was more than the Buffaloes could handle.
Iowa State coach Larry Eustachy said that anytime the Cyclones have an offensive drought, they always look for Tinsley to break them out of the slump
when he wasn't dicing up the Colorado defense for 16 points and nine assists. Tinsley was crashing the boards, something he does very well. He had six rebounds against the Buffaloes, which is above his season average of 3.8.
After losing two straight conference games on the road, Iowa State is back on track after the wins against Colorado and Nebraska, and are looking for its next win against Baylor on Thursday. But this is not the guaranteed victory as it used to be. The Bears (13-3, 2-3) are sixth in the Big 12, and have almost eclipsed last season's win total of 14.
"To learn how to win games is important," said Iowa State forward Paul Shirley. "Especially when it's a team that has lost historically like Baylor has in the last couple years."
If the Cyclones are going to hold serve at home they will have to do it on the defensive end. Baylor seniors Terry Black and DeMarcus Minor are combining to average nearly 30 points, leading the Bears offense, which is averaging 74 points.
But Iowa State has a simple way to defend Bavlor.
"It's harder to shoot when they are moving." Shirley said.
And when opposing players aren't getting open shots, it lets Eustachy work on his other points of emphasis.
Eustachy said two of the most important stats for him are opponents field goal percentage and Iowa State's

rebounding totals. Although the rebounding might need some work, the Cyclones have kept their last two opponents to less than 70 points. However, Eustachy said the Cyclones had some work to do before they are back in the upper echelon of the conference.
"We're not where we hope to be in about a month," Eustachy said.
Crimson Girls prove dancing is a sport
SCHOLASTIC SQUARE
By Brandon Stinnett sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
For many years, a debate has swirled around whether dancing should be considered a sport. But the answer's simple if you ask Cathy Jarzemkoski, coach of the Kansas dance team, the Crimson Girls.
"I think it's a sport." Jarzemkoski said. "There is training and there is an ultimate goal to achieve in national competitions."
Recently, the Crimson Girls have done a lot of training. In fact, the squad spent six to eight hours each day during winter break preparing for the College Cheerleading and Dance Nationals on Jan. 11-14 at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Fla.
Just being selected to compete was an honor for the team. The Crimson Girls received an invitation based on their performance in a videotaped dance routine that was critiqued by a panel of judges.
The Kansas Crimson Girls dance team placed 12th at the College Cheerleading and Dance Nationals Jan. 11 to 14 at Disney World in Orlando, Flg. Contributed photo
Jarzemkoski is quick to point out that her girls logged more practice hours during break than the men's basketball team. And the hard work paid off. The Crimson Girls, one of 16 teams chosen from a pool of 30 to compete in the finals of the national competition, finished 12th.
While placing high at nationals was important, the Crimson Girls' captain, Alissa Criger, said bonding as a team and getting to know other dancers from across the country were their top priorities.
Criger, a junior from Omaha, Neb., said competing has been a challenge this year because the team lacks experience. With the exception of three juniors, the Crimson Girls are comprised of all freshman and sophomores. Still, Criger was impressed with their performance.
Funding from the University covered much of the trip's cost, but the team also did fund-rais
"We would have liked to have done better, but I think we did well," she said. "I think the highlight of the trip for me was getting to know the girls better."
It was Criger's third appearance at the national competition. Last year, the team placed ninth after another 12th-place finish in 1999.
"It was great," Criger said. "We had so much fun. I was so proud of the girls."
Jarzemkoski said the Crimson Girls' success stems from extensive time devoted to training. But the stringent practice schedule really takes its toll.
Jarzemkoski said the rigorous training schedule endured by each team member proves that they are athletes and not just girls participating in an activity, as people often say.
ers, such as playing host to dance clinics and selling team posters to raise extra money.
"It's really hard since they don't get to have much of a Christmas break like most kids," Jarzemkoski said. "They don't get to go home like most students do. It really tests their dedication."
"It's always been, 'Are they athletes, or are they not?' she said. "With the practice they went through before the competition, it's definitely an art and a sport," she said.
Criger didn't used to consider dancing or cheerleading to be sports, but after serving as a Crimson Girl, she changed her mind. One look at the moves performed by cheerleaders at the competition is enough to convince anyone, she said.
"I think it's a sport," Criger
said. "I had never thought cheerleaders were athletes. But with the practice and watching them in action, you can't say it's not a sport when you see people throw other people 50 feet up in the air."
In addition to competitions, the Crismon Girls perform at various community events in Lawrence. But their number on priority is
dancing during Kansas basketball games.
Criser said performing in Allen Fieldhouse in front of more than 16,000 fans is an experience like no other.
"It's unreal," she said. "It just gives me goose bumps because it's so rich in tradition."

Collison's physical play a turning point for Jayhawks
BOULDER, Colo. — With a hard foul on a clean breakaway, Nick Collison sent a message to the sellout crowd, the national television audience and the rest of the Big 12 Conference — Kansas is not going to be pushed around anymore.
There were several turning points in last night's 85-75 nail-biting victory against Colorado in the Coors Events Center. But Collison perhaps turned the season around with his physical play in the second half.
Buffalo guard Jose Winston stole the ball and headed toward the Kansas basket for the easy bucket. But Collison was intent on not letting him score, and, in his attempt to block the shot, knocked Winston to the floor and was whistled for an intentional foul.
The ensuing free-throw and basket stretched the Colorado lead to 51-46 with 16 minutes to go in the half. Colorado fans, of course, thought the foul was the dirtiest thing in Colorado since Bill Romanowski's last game. Collison said he was going for the ball — I agree (just check the replay) — and said he apologized to Winston afterwards.
But strangely enough, the deceptively dirty-looking foul could become the turning point for a Kansas team that all the sudden looks like a legitimate Final Four contender. The Buffalo lead slowly dwindled down after the Collison hack, and the Jayhawks outscored Colorado 39-24 for the rest of the contest.
Just six weeks ago, the Jayhawks were more than happy to be pushed around on the road. Wake Forest beat up Kansas like a schoolyard bully searching for lunch money, and the Jayhawks let the bullies do whatever they wanted, resulting in an 84-53 los-
Colorado entered last night's game with a similar mentality. After all, this was Kansas, and for the past two seasons, the Javahaws folded on the road.
In the first half, the Buffaloes banged with the Jayhawks, matching rebounds with a team that towered above them. Once again, the Jayhawks were playing patches on the road, getting wiped out by a team that, talent-wise, shouldn't even be in the same building as Kansas.
But with Collison's foul, the Jayhawks added something to their arsenal that they so sorely lacked against Wake Forest — a killer instinct.
After Collison's foul and the ensuing screaming match between Colorado coach Ricardo Patton and Kansas coach Roy Williams, the Jayhawks had their hands around the Buffaloes' throats and were finally able to sueze down.
Colorado ran on emotion for a little bit after the foul, keeping the slim lead.
But the Jayhawks had the mentality of cold-blooded killers, and when sophomore guard Kirk Hinrich nailed a three-pointer and gave the Jayhawks the lead with just under five minutes to go, Colorado knew that Kansas was ready to finish what Collison had started.
Amazingly, the stone-faced Jayhawks knew they would find a way to win, unlike on Tobacco Road where they found every way possible to lose.
"We never had a doubt that this game was ours," said Collison, who will probably now be as hated in Boulder as Rick Neuheisl.
"We knew we would win," Hinrich said.
And armed with the confidence and the killer instinct that the Jayhawks exhibited last night after Collison's foul, this team may not lose for a very, very long time.

was 18 years old when I got pregnant. Since I had already enlisted in the Air Force, I thought I had to have an abortion in order to make something out of my life.
My best friend drove me to the abortion clinic. It was like an assembly line. When the ultrasound was being done I asked to see it. But this wasn't allowed (so much for "an informed decision"). Then I asked how far along I was. I was told I was nine-and-a-half weeks pregnant. That hit me hard. I started doubting, and wanted to talk to my friend, but I wasn't allowed to.
When it was my turn the nurse told me that I was going to feel some discomfort, like strong menstrual cramps. The truth is that the abortion was more pain
b
th
than I've ever felt in my life. It felt like my insides were literally being sucked out of my body
like my insides were literally being sucked out of my body. Later I went into shock! After the abortion, I tried to make up for it by trying to get pregnant again.I wanted my baby back.I never got pregnant again.I don't know if I can ever have another baby.I named my baby.I found out later that this is part of the grieving process.
"
Two-and-a-half years later, I ended up in the hospital with bulimia. I felt that no one had punished me for what I had done so I was punishing myself.
The truth is that the abortion was more pain than i've ever felt in my life. It felt like my insides were literally being sucked out of my body."
I became obsessed with women who were pregnant. My life was in shambles! I was suffering from post-abortion trauma.
When I was 21 years old God brought me help through a woman who was involved in pro-life activism. I went through a post-abortion counseling program called "Conquerors." God not only forgave me, He challenged me to help others. I answered the challenge!
I started sidewalk counseling. There is a healing process that comes from getting involved in the pro-life movement. I talk to youth groups and students and share my testimony. To them, and to you, I plead, "Please don't make the same mistakes I did."

Does Abortion increase your risk of Breast Cancer?
by Dr. Joel Brind, Ph.D.
Abortion Disrupts Hormonal Balance
Estrogen is the hormone that turns a girl's body into a woman's body at puberty. Actually, there is a whole class of similar steroids, estrogens, which can stimulate the growth of the breasts and other female tissues. The most abundant and important estrogen secreted by a woman's ovaries is called estradiol.
After puberty, the levels of estradiol rise and fall twice with each menstrual cycle. Under the influence of the pituitary gland's follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), new, egg-containing follicles develop in the ovaries during the first half of the menstrual cycle. The follicular, estradiol-secreting cells surrounding the eggs proliferate, and so the ovaries secrete ever larger quantities of estradiol, reaching a peak about one day before ovulation. This pre-ovulatory peak is the highest blood level of estradiol a woman ever normally experiences in the non-pregnant state. It stimulates her pituitary gland to secrete another hormone, luteinizing hormone (LH), which actually triggers ovulation.
According to 27 out of 31 studies, even one abortion increases the risk of getting breast cancer later in life. Dr. Joel Brind, an endocrinology specialist, who has done a great deal of research on this issue and has compiled the results of the numerous studies, explains below the science behind the link. His reports reveal an increased breast cancer risk of 50% if an abortion is performed before the first live birth. If multiple abortions are performed the risk can increase up to 100%. He also explains how spontaneous miscarriages do not produce the same result.
After ovulation, the follicle which has expelled the egg becomes filled with another kind of cell called a luteal cell. These luteal cells proliferate under the influence of pituitary LH, thus secreting ever larger quantities of both estradiol and the pregnancy hormone progesterone, from which estradiol is made.
Since pituitary secretion of LH falls off quite sharply after ovulation, the corpus luteum (as the former follicle is now called) begins to regress, unless fertilization of the egg (conception) takes place. If conception has occurred, the embryo begins almost immediately-to secrete another chemical messenger which acts like LH to "rescue" the corpus luteum.
If rescued, the corpus luteum proceeds to generate enormous concentrations of progesterone and estradiol. By 7 to 8 weeks gestation, a pregnant woman's blood already contains six times more estradiol than it did at the time of conception, more than twice the highest level attained in the non-pregnant state.
Cancer Cells Run Amok
How estradiol, or estrogens in general, relate to breast cancer risk, has to do with their role in the growth of breast tissue. It is estradiol which makes the breasts grow to a mature size at puberty, and which makes them grow again during pregnancy.The cells in the breast which are responsive to estradiol are those which are primitive, or undifferentiated. Once terminally differentiated into milk-producing cells,breast cells can no longer be stimulated to reproduce.
It is the undifferentiated cells which can give rise to cancerous tumors later in life. If a woman therefore has gone through some weeks of a normal
pregnancy, and then aborts that pregnancy, she is left with more of these cancer-vulnerable cells than she had in her breasts before she was pregnant. In addition, any abnormal, potentially cancer-forming cells already in her breasts (present to some extent in all people) have also been stimulated to multiply All this translates into a statistically greater probability that a cancerous tumor may eventually arise. In fact most risk factors for breast cancer are attributable to overexposure to some form of estrogen.
In contrast, a full term pregnancy results in full differentiation of the breast tissue for the purpose of milk production,
which
图
leaves
fewer cancer-vulnerable cells in the breasts than were there before the pregnancy began. This translates into the well known breast cancer risk lowering
effect of a full term pregnancy...
Most miscarriages occur in the first trimester, and over 90% of these are characterized by abnormally low maternal estradiol levels (quantities that do not exceed non-pregnant levels). One team of Swiss obstetricians, as far back as 1976, was actually able to predict miscarriages with 92% accuracy with just a single measurement of estradiol. Theoretically, this makes perfect sense: the very reason for an early miscarriage is an inadequate supply of progesterone from which estradiol is made.
However, there is reason to believe that pregnancies which survive the first trimester (and they couldn't survive without adequately high progesterone levels, which are paralleled by estradiol) are likely to raise breast cancer risk, if they go on to miscarry due to physical trauma or anatomic defect. Since most miscarriages do occur in the first trimester, miscarriages generally have been found not to increase the risk of breast cancer. Remember: reproductive rights are meaningless without the right of women to know all the consequences of the choices they may make.

cell in ic t d
"
Each of us has a very precise starting moment which is the time at which the whole necessary and sufficient genetic information is gathered inside one cell, the fertilized egg,and this is the moment of fertilization."
Month One
Fertilization
The sperm joins with the ovum to form one cell. This one cell contains the complex genetic makeup for every detail of human development-the child's sex, hair and eye color, height skin tone etc.
the first cell divides and cell division continues in an orderly fashion as the small group of cells travels down the Fallopian tube to the uterus. There are over 100 cells present when this tiny embryo reaches the uterus7 to 10 days after fertilization. Foundations of
the brain, spinal cord and nervous system are already established,and on day 21 the heart begins to beat in a regular fashion. Muscles are forming, and arms, legs, eyes and ears have begun to show. The embryo is 10,000 times larger than the original fertilized egg and developing rapidly.
The pre-born baby has all her fingers. Brain waves can be detected and the brain is controlling 40 sets of muscles as well as the organs. The jaw forms, including teeth buds in the gums. The eyelids seal during this time to protect the
baby's developing light-sensitive eyes, the stomach produces digestive juices, and the kidneys have begun to function. The developing baby is now referred to as the fetus, a Latin word meaning "young one."
Month Three
Unique fingerprints are evident and never change. The baby now sleeps, awakens, and exercises her muscles by turning her head, curling her toes, and opening and closing her mouth often sucking her thumb. She breathes amniotic fluid to help develop her respiratory system. By the end of the month all the organs and systems of her body are functioning. The only major activity from now until birth is growth.
month Fourth
By the end of this month the baby is 8 to 10 inches in length and weighs 1/2 pound. Her ears are functioning and the baby hears her mother's heartbeat, as well as external noises. Because the pre-born child is now larger, the mother usually begins to feel her baby's movements.
Month Five
Half the pregnancy has now passed. The baby is about 12 inches long. If a sound is especially loud or startling, she may jump in reaction to it. Babies born at this stage of development are surviving at an ever increasing rate, thanks to medical advances.
Month Six
Oil and sweat glands are functioning. The baby's delicate skin is protected in the amniotic sac by a special ointment "vernix."
Month Seven
The baby's brain has as many cells as it will have at birth. The pre-born child uses the four senses of vision, hearing, taste, and touch. Research has documented that she can now recognize her mother's voice.
The skin begins to thicken, with a layer of fat stored underneath for insulation and nourishment. The baby swallows a gallon of amniotic fluid per day.She often hiccups. She has been urinating for several months.
Month Eight
Month Nine
The baby is almost ready for birth. Of the 45 generations of cell divisions before adulthood, 41 have taken place in the womb. Only four more will come before adolescence.In developmental terms we spend 90% of our lives in the womb.

baby parts for sale
.
n 1999, Life Dynamics Inc. (LDI), of Denton, TX, uncovered a coordinated lucrative industry functioning for the specific purpose of obtaining and selling high-quality fetal organs for research.
A "procurement agent" from within the industry became a whistle blower and revealed how a team would go into late term abortion mills to dissect aborted babies and procure fetal parts. The informant reported that the procurers would get a generated list each day letting them know which body parts or organs were in demand from the researchers, pharmaceutical companies and universities. They were looking for only the "most perfect specimens" which included eyes, livers, hearts, brains, kidneys, spleens, and intact bodies.
LDI discovered that in many instances these babies were born alive, then killed so the procurement team could get the tissue or organs while still fresh. The body parts are then packed in dry ice and shipped to their destination via UPS, Fed Ex, Airborne, or by special couriers. How does the abortion industry circumvent federal law which prohibits the sale of human body parts or tissue? Fetal tissue wholesalers pay the abortion clinics a "site fee" (renting space, so to speak) to place the "procurement agents" in the abortion mills. The abortionist then "donates" the tissue or body parts to the wholesaler. The wholesaler bills the researchers, not for the actual parts or organs, but for the cost of retrieval.
parts for sale eyes $75, brains only $999 Interview with an Insider $
Documentation uncovered by LDI included wholesalers' purchasing lists with individual pricing per organ or body part, technically called "fee for services schedule." A sampling of one of the wholesaler's inventory includes: an intact trunk (with or without limbs) $500; gonads $550; eyes $75; brains $999; livers $150; and spinal cords $325. There is also a 30% discount if the tissue is "significantly fragmented."
It has become obvious that one of the reasons why the abortion advocates insist upon maintaining the cruel and inhumane practice of partial-birth abortion is to be able to deliver intact bodies, minus the brains, to the researchers.
What is the governing force behind the
Money. It is a very lucrative business. It is the largest unregulated industry in our nation.Most of the clinics are run in chains because it is so profitable.
Why do you refer to "selling" abortions?
The product, abortion, is skillfully marketed and sold to the woman at the crisis time in her life. She buys the product, finds it defective and wants to return it for a refund. But, it's too late. Her baby is dead.
In what way is the woman deceived?
In two ways - the clinic personnel and the marketers must deny the personhood of the child and the pain caused by the procedure. Every woman has two questions, "Is it a baby?" and "Does it hurt?" The abortionist must answer "NO." He/she must lie to secure the consent of the woman and the collection of the clinic's fee. The women were told that we were dealing with a "product of conception" or a "glob of tissue." They were told that there would be only slight cramping, whereas, in reality, an abortion is excruciatingly painful. I know because I had one.
What type of counselling was offered at the clinic?
In the clinics in which I was involved we didn't do any real counseling. We answered only the questions the woman asked and tried not to "rock the boat." We did not discuss alternatives to abortion unless the woman forced us to. We sold abortions.
What method of abortion did your clinics
For the most part, the abortion industry stopped using saline and prostaglandin procedures because of the number of live births. A live birth means you have to let the baby die, or dispose of it in some distasteful way. Most 2nd and 3rd trimester abortionists use the D&E method.
an aborted baby?
In our clinics, we put them down the garbage disposal. We used the heavy duty model. Some second and third trimester babies' muscle structure is so strong that the baby will not come apart, so they must be disposed of through trash receptacles.
What complications did you
We were doing a one-day traumatic dilatation, which has a higher rate of complication. In the last 18 months I was in the business, we were completing over 500 abortions monthly and killing or maiming one woman out of 500. Common complications that take place are perforations or tears in the uterus. Many of those result in hysterectomies. The doctor might cut or harm the urinary tract, which then requires surgical repair. A complication that is rarely publicized is the one in which the doctor perforates the uterus and pulls the bowels through the vagina, resulting in colostomy. Some of those can be reversed, some must live with the colostomy for the remainder of their lives.
How did you keep these complications
The woman would be loaded into my car (an ambulance outside an abortion clinic is terrible advertising) and transported to a hospital that would protect the doctor and the abortion clinic's reputation. The concern is not with the patient, only in keeping an unblemished reputation. You have a built-in cover-up with the patient's family They are dealing with their guilt and emotions over the situation and do not want to deal with the added pressure of exposing the truth through the media.
I experienced a religious transformation. At that time a Dallas TV station did an expose on the abortions performed at my clinic on nonpregnant women-all for money! I realized we weren't helping women-we were destroying them.

Common Abortion Methods
Suction Aspiration
The abortionist inserts a hollow plastic tube into the dilated cervix. "This tube is attached to a suction machine. The suction machine is turned on. The uterus is emptied by suction." $ ^{1} $ The suction tears the baby's body as he/she is being pulled through the hose.
Used after 12 weeks. Once the cervix is dilated considerably further than in first trimester abortions, the abortionist inserts a narrow forceps that resembles a pliers. A pliers-like instrument is needed because the baby's bones are calcified, as is the skull. The abortionist inserts the instrument into the uterus, seizes a leg or other part of the body and, with a twisting motion, tears it from the baby's body. The spine must be snapped and the skull crushed in order to remove them from the womb. Body parts are then reassembled and counted to make certain that the entire baby has been removed and that no parts remain in the womb.
Dilatation and Evacuation (D&E)
Partial-Birth Abortion (D&X)
After three days of preparations, the abortionist places an ultrasound transducer on the mother's abdomen and locates the child's legs and feet. The abortionist then uses a large forceps to grasp one of the baby's legs. He pulls firmly, forcing the child into a feet-down (breech) position. He continues pulling until the baby's leg is drawn into the birth canal.
Next, using his hands instead of forceps, the abortionist delivers the baby's body in a manner similar to a breech birth. First, the child's other leg is delivered, followed by the torso, shoulders, and arms. The baby's head remains inside the vaginal birth canal.
The abortionist then performs the last step. Using surgical scissors in a closed position, he pierces the child's head at the base of the skull. He forces the scissors open to enlarge the skull opening. The abortionist then inserts a suction catheter into the brain and vacuums out the child's brain tissue with a machine 28 times more powerful than a household vacuum.

Two of Sanchez's children were in the waiting room while their mother was having the abortion. After Sanchez died, Hanna tried to talk the 12-year old daughter into driving the mother's car away. She refused. The children continued to wait. The clinic staff took the children out for lunch. When they returned, the mother's car was gone and the children were told that the mother had left the abortion mill. Hours later, the staff asked the children to call a relative to take them home, which they did.
When Sanchez's children returned home and their mother was not there they asked the relative to take them back to the abortion mill. Just as they arrived they saw Hanna trying to stuff their mother's body into Hanna's car. They seized the body and hurried to a hospital where they were informed that their mother had been dead since early that morning.

At the trial, prosecutors showed that Sanchez could have been saved because a fire station with emergency workers was less than one mile away. A worker at the abortion mill said that Hanna had planned to dump the body in the Tijuana River.

what about rape?
R
and incest?
esearchers David C. Reardon, Julie Makimaa, and Amy Sobie just completed (2000) a
nine year study on pregnancy outcomes of sexual assault victims. $ ^{1} $
As part of their research the authors drew upon testimonies from 192 women who became pregnant as a result of rape or incest, and 55 children conceived in sexual assault.
The conclusion reached by the researchers is that: "Sexual assault is actually a contraindication for abortion. A doctor treating a sexual assault victim should advise against abortion precisely because of the traumatic nature of the pregnancy." The testimonies and studies quoted in this book "confirm that both the mother and child are helped by preserving life, not by perpetuating violence."
"Research shows that after any abortion, it is common for women to experience guilt, depression, feelings of being dirty,' resentment of men, and lowered self-esteem. These feelings are identical to what women typically feel after rape. Abortion only adds to and accentuates the traumatic feelings associated with sexual assault. Rather than easing the psychological burdens, abortion adds to them.
"Kathleen DeZeeuw, whose son Patrick was conceived in rape when she was 16, writes: I, having lived through rape, and also having raised a child "conceived in rape" feel personally assaulted and insulted every time I hear that abortion should be legal because of rape and incest. I feel that we're being used by pro-abortionists
to further the abortion issue though we've not been asked to tell our side of the story.'
"The case against abortion for incest pregnancies is even stronger. Studies show that incest victims rarely ever voluntarily agree to abortion. Instead of viewing the pregnancy as unwanted, the incest victim is more
ety to de
"It doesn't matter how I began.
What matters is who I will become."
Julie Makimaa (above right) conceived in rape
see the pregnancy as a way out of the incestuous relationship because the birth of her child will expose the sexual activity..."
"For example, Edith Young, a 12-year-old victim of incest, writes twenty-five years after the abortion of her child: 'The abortion which was to "be in my best interest" just has not been. As far as I can tell, it only "saved their reputations, solved their problems" and "allowed their lives to go merrily on."
The Reality of Post Abortion Syndrome
Does Post Abortion Syndrome (PAS) exist?
Yes, much research has been done on this issue. Even representatives of Planned Parenthood, an organization that has historically denied the legitimacy of post abortion traumatization and the idea that abortion involves a human
death experience, has affirmed that women can have a variety of emotions following an abortion (grief, depression, anger, guilt, relief, etc.). It is important to give her the opportunity to air these feelings and be assured that her feelings are normal. The counselor can also help by letting the woman know that a sense of loss or depression following an abortion is common, due to both the end of the pregnancy as well as the physical and hormonal changes that occur after a pregnancy is over. $ ^{1} $
What causes PAS?
Dr. Martha Shuping, a psychiatrist with more than ten years experience in helping women with post abortion issues, offers this explanation:
At least 70% of women having an abortion say they believe it is immoral. But they choose against their conscience because of pressure from others and their circumstances... It is precisely because so many women who abort are acting against their consciences and maternal instincts that the psychological impact of abortion can be so profound. $ ^{2} $
What are some of the symptoms of PAS?
Guilt is ever present in many guises, along with regret, remorse, shame, lowered selfesteem, insomnia, dreams and nightmares, flash backs, anniversary reactions. There often is hostility, and even hatred, toward men. This can include her husband, and she may become sexually dysfunctional. Crying, despair and depression are usual, even at times with suicide attempts. Recourse to alcohol or drugs to mask the pain is frequent sometimes leading to sexual promiscuity. $ ^{3} $

“
I was a participant in two abortions with my ex-wife... It has been six years since the last abortion, nine since the decision for the first one. Every time I see children of the approximate age of the two lost ones, I cry, no matter where ... church, the mall, the park, the library. I want to call their names, Michelle, Danielle, Stephen, William. Their legacy is gone. Their beauty unfinished, nulled by a decision to which I agreed... I have gone from pro-choice to pro-child."
E-mail message to Human Life Alliance May 1999
im, I think I'm pregnant." It was New Year's Eve. My boyfriend sighed deeply his gaze remaining fixed on the TV. He then muttered something that made me feel already deserted. I felt a sour lump in the back of my throat. Yes, I was pregnant, and I was scared!
I knew from firsthand experience how tough it is raising a child as a single mother. I already had a 2-year old daughter, Jennifer, from an earlier unsuccessful marriage. When my pregnancy was confirmed, Tim's non-committal response to my distress and his move to Chicago, 400 miles away, left me despondent and convinced that abortion was the "easy way out." I was already struggling financially with one child. How could I raise two?
As I sat in the abortion clinic waiting my turn, it seemed like a nightmare. Women lounged on garishly printed couches as rock music played on the intercom. Everything seemed so casual, and there I was, feeling like I wanted to die.
When the nurse called my name, I changed my mind, broke into tears, and left. I felt desperately alone. Back at the university, I often cried myself to sleep. I decided to confide in a couple of college professors. They collected money to fly me out of town to have an abortion. Now I was obligated to go through with it. Still, I agonized!
I was summoned to the room where the abortions are performed. I could hear a woman sobbing hysterically in the recovery room. That memory haunts me still.
As the doctor was examining me, prior to performing the abortion, he suddenly stopped and said to the nurse, "Get her out of here! She's too far along!" Relief instantly washed over
me! How odd! I had thought I wanted an abortion but now felt instantly relieved to know I was still pregnant.
I decided to use every ounce of courage I could muster to deal with my pregnancy. My ambivalence turned into love for my unborn daughter, Melanie.
It took energy and creativity to support the three of us. My two daughters inspired me to do great things. They never stood in the way of my career. I finished my degree; then I went on to get my Master's and Ph.D. Besides being a proud mother, I am happily married, a published author, a motivational speaker, and a part-time musician.
When we endure something tough, our character and self-esteem are strengthened. Many women who have confessed to me that they've had abortions have discovered that the "easy way out" is just an illusion. Some are in abusive
relationships. Some are on antidepressants. Others just seem detached from life. Some sadly remember their aborted child's "would be" birthday each year.
I cannot promise that it will be easy. I can only promise that the anguish will pass and there are people who will help you through this trying time. One day you will look back on the birth of your child, and know that you did the right thing.
Sincerely,
Dr. Angela Woodhull
"
My going back to school with my son helped other women who might face a crisis pregnancy. We are bombarded with the lie that an unplanned pregnancy will ruin our education, our careers, our lives, everything. Yet I went back to school and finished with good grades. My son became a familiar sight on campus. People saw that he did not ruin my life in any way."

New policies simplify enrollment
WWW.KANSAN.COM
By Andrew Davies
writer @kanson.com
Kansas staff writer
Enrollment center officials say a revised add/drop policy seems to have improved tensions as many students undergo the tradition of adding or dropping classes in the east wing of Strong Hall.
The new policy differs only slightly from the old policy. It allows students who miss their add/drop time to come back later the same day or on the following day.
Previously, students who missed their appointment times were only allowed to come back the evening of their appointment day or the following day.
If students miss these times, they must wait until the last chance to enroll tomorrow and Friday.
The University Registrar's office also implemented a new policy for late enrollment. Students who wanted to enroll after Jan. 16 did not have to wait for their appointment times. Late enrollment continues through Friday.
Brad Howard, supervisor of the enrollment center, said that although the add/drop process was a little longer now, the change decreased the amount of conflicts between students and enrollment center workers.
"It actually creates longer lines in the afternoon," he said. "But we have fewer arguments with students who don't want come back at 5 to 7 that day."
Richard Morrell, University registrar, said the policy change was permanent and that it aimed to make the add/drop
ADD/DROP POLICY
What happened: The University changed its add/drop policy to make the process more convenient for students.
**What it means:** Students who miss their add/drop appointments can now add or drop classes later the same day or on the following day.
What's next: Formal add/drop continues tomorrow and Friday.
"We wanted to make it more workable for students." Morrell said.
He said that he hadn't heard any feedback from students but that the change seemed to be working, despite the chance that a bigger window of time for students

to change their schedules could lead to longer lines.
But students who were enrolling yesterday said they were mostly satisfied with the process.
Kasi Ervin, Overland Park senior, was going through the add/drop process for the first time. She said she did not have any problems with it.
"These are shorter lines than I've ever heard of. so I'm satisfied," she said.
Andrew Peterson, Olathe freshman, said the process worked well for him.
"I think it's better for the students," Peterson said. "Because yesterday I had a class during my appointment time, I came back today to do it. So it's more convenient, I guess."
CRUMBLING CAMPUS
Where the sidewalk ends:
Freezing temperatures crack stairs, sidewalks
By Sara Shepherd writer@kansan.com
Kansas senior staff writer

Especially that last one — or half of one — behind Wesco Terrace.
Freezing temperatures and winter precipitation are led to precarious paths on many campus sidewalks.
A recent campus canvassing by a group of reporting students revealed at least 18 spots with substantial signs of cracking, crumbling concrete on stairs and sidewalks. Deterioration ranged from patches of walkways missing, to a step that was crumbled away clear down to the re-bar, which is the metal framework underneath the concrete.
Dried leaves and cigarette butts have lodged in the piles of concrete rubble at the bottom of the stairs behind Wescoe Terrace.
On the west side of Wescop, only about a foot of the edge of one section of step remains, and even that shifts with a person's weight. What's left crumbles easily with the scrape of a smaker. Although there is still plenly of foot room on the lowest east side steps, they are nearly halfway gone on either side of the handrails
Douglas Riat, Facilities Operations director, said this time of year was the hardest on sidewalks. Though student foot traffic doesn't have much impact on the problem, the weather does, he said.
Riat said the crumbling process began when water found its way into the porous surface or cracks in concrete. Moisture inside the concrete, coupled with a cycle of freezing and thawing temperatures, causes the concrete to crack even more.
"Basically, once you break through the surface of the concrete, you're probably going to get more decay." Riat said.
He said cold weather created cracked, crumbling sidewalks and stairs much like it caused pot holes in streets.
Riat said chemical treatments used to melt the offending snow and ice also compounded the decaying effects. Step and curb replacement is a yearly chore for facilities operations workers, and this year was no different, Riat said.
But because winter conditions are not ideal for pouring concrete, it's hard to check it off that list until the weather warms up. Riat said as long as the winter freeze-thaw cycle continues, concrete would continue to deteriorate.
"Annually, we do quite a number of stair and walk replacements across campus," he said. "That's something on our list to do."

ABC storms Lawrence, issues citations to 36 people

In a report issued yesterday by the Department of Revenue, the ABC released the results of a large-scale check conducted in Lawrence Friday and Saturday and in Manhattan. Kan, on Jan. 12 and 13.
Alcoholic Beverage Control agents descended upon Lawrence last weekend, skipping 36 people with citations for violating Kansas liquor laws.
In Lawrence, 28 of the 36 citations issued were given to minors in possession of alcohol, six citations were issued to people furnishing alcohol to minors, and two people
Agents combing Manhattan, Kan, cited 35 people for liquor law violations. Twenty-six people were cited as minors in possession of alcohol, eight people were cited for furnishing alcohol to minors, and one person was issued a citation for transporting an open container.

two officers. But this was a larger operation." Kit Brauer, Denver, freshman, said agents caught three of his friends during the weekend check. One friend was cited for furnishing alcohol to minors and two were cited as minors in possession.
"The way that they were caught was
unjust," Brauer said. "The officials didn't know they were underage."
Brauer, who was cited for minor in possession last April, said he didn't mind ABC officers enforcing the law, but he did mind the way the agents made their checks.
"It's almost age proffiling." Brauer said. "You shouldn't just stop anyone with a beer in their hand just because they look like they might be underage."
The last time the ABC made its rounds during the spring semester was March 2 and 4, 2000. During that check, 23 citations were issued to people in Lawrence.
Those caught in last weekend's check ranged in age from 17 to 24.

Ellsworth renovation to begin in summer
By Cynthia Malakasis
writer@kanson.com
Kanson staff writer
The renovation is scheduled to be completed in May 2003, with the entire building being closed down during the 2002-03 academic year.
The top three floors of Eldsworth Hall will close for renovations at the end of the semester and remain closed for the next academic year, meaning the hall will lose space for up to 240 residents.
The Department of Student Housing has decided that Ellsworth should come next after Lewis and Templin halls in the University's effort to renovate all the residence halls.
Stoner said the department planned to reduce the number of single-occupancy rooms in all residence halls and turn them into double-occupancy rooms to accommodate the overflow of residents.
"A project of this size cannot be completed in one phase," said Ken Stoner, director of Student Housing. "We need to close the top three floors first for demolition and make-ready work."
Students whose priority is a single room might not be able to get one during that time.
The renovation is designed to change Ellsworth's living style and space distribution to make it similar to Lewis and Templin halls, where students live in apartment-style suits. Housing rates for the hall will increase to match rates at Lewis and Templin halls.
This year, a double room or a four-person suite in Templin and Lewis halls costs $5,002 — 21.6 percent higher than a double room in Ellsworth at $4,114. The Board of Regents has approved housing rate increases that will go into effect in the fall.
Currently, only eight floors of Ellsworth are dedicated to living spaces, with the first two floors housing offices and facilities for the residents. After the renovation, all 10 floors will have living spaces, which will include two-person apartment-style rooms, standard double rooms and two- and four-person suites. The building's maximum capacity will be 589 residents, down from its currently unfulfilled capacity of 610 people.
Safety issues might be a concern because construction on the top three floors will be going on this summer while the building is still open, said John Eye, project manager for Design and Construction Management.
"There's always a risk factor when construction is going on in a building where people live in," Eyed said.
The total cost of the project is estimated at $10,497,450, and will be financed by University-issued bonds, Stoner said.
Nathan Chang, an Olathe junior who has lived in Ellsworth for the last three years and also has served as a resident assistant, said that he thought the building and the furniture needed renovation but that he was also concerned about the change in the living style.
"Ellsworth is known for its communal type of living," Chang said. "People go up to each other's doors and talk, and there's a sense of community. The renovation may change that."

Diocese modifies sexual-abuse policy
WICHTA, Kan — The Catholic Diocese of Wichita has revised its sexual-abuse policy after a former priest was charged with sexually abusing altar boys.
The diocese's revised policy states it "will be committed to pastoral care for the alleged victim, the family, for the accused and for the congregation."
Should substantiated accusations of abuse surface against an employee or volunteer of the diocese, members of the parish or parishes affected would be notified.
"We would feel a responsibility to do that in a way that would be prudent and well-worded," said Bishop Eugene Gerber. "You have to be very careful about that, but the main thing is that we're aware of it."

Falun Gong followers set themselves on fire
BEJING — Five Falun Gong followers set them on fire yesterday in China's Tiananmen Square, the most radical act yet by sect members in defiance of the communist government's 18-month ban on their movement.
One follower died in the attempted group suicide, which prompted police to tighten security and close the square in the opening hours of China's lunar new year.
After weeks of words, both the spiritual movement and communist government have turned to brasher tactics.
Falun Gong has stepped up demonstrations in recent weeks and issued warnings by founder Li Hongzhi of more vigorous action to protest the crackdown. The government has fought back by intensifying vilification of the sect in state-controlled media and supporting a nationwide campaign to collect a million signatures.
The campaign is the government's first effort to make people publicly support the ban and is reminiscent of communist political movements — from the 1950-53 Korean War to the radical Cultural Revolution in the 1960s.

Texas law enforcement sources said those in custody besides Rivas were Randy Halpin, Michael Rodriguez and Joseph Garcia, while Larry Harper was believed to be in the trailer. Still unaccounted for were Patrick Murphy Jr. and Donald Newbury.
News of the capture trickled through the Texas News on Monday.
The breakout was the biggest escape from a Texas state prison in modern history.
"I don't know anyone who did not think that it would not happen at one point. The question was always when," said Ken Armbrister, the chairman of Senate Criminal Justice Committee.
ON THE RECORD

Legal service hires new attorney
By Brooke Healer
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
After months of searching for a new staff attorney for Legal Services for Students, a selection committee has filled the position.
Lauren Reinhold is scheduled to start Thursday, Feb. 1, said Jo Hardesty, director and managing attorney for the service.
Reinhold was not the first person offered the job. Legal services originally offered it to Marlon Williams, former Douglas County assistant district attorney, last late semester. Student Senate approved his appointment.
At the time, Senate didn't know the identity of Williams because he was still working for the county and hadn't resigned yet.
Hardesty said Williams originally accepted the job, but then backed out to take a job in Texas.
"I don't know if I'd say he was our first choice," Hardesty said. "He was the first person we offered the job to, though."
Holly Krebs, Student Rights committee chairwoman, also sat on the selections committee that interviewed and hired Reinhold. Krebs, McLouth senior, said Legal Services for Students had to hire Reinhold before getting Senate's approval.
"LSS is in desperate need of another lawyer," Krebs said. "With tax season coming up, they needed to hire someone."
Marlon Marshall, student body vice president and St. Louis, Mo., senior, said Senate would approve Reinhold at its meeting on Wednesday, Jan. 31. Krebs said Reinhold's approval was just a formality.
Krebs said she was happy with the choice of Reinhold.
"I thought she was an excellent candidate when we were interviewing her," Krebs said. "And I thought her experience on student government when she was in school will be really good."
Reinhold received her undergraduate degree from Northeast Missouri State University in 1992, where she worked in student government. She received her law degree from the University of Kansas School of Law in 1996. Reinhold is also a former Legal Services for Students legal intern.
The search for a new staff attorney began in September when the position was vacated by Braxton Copley. Hardesty said the committee had between 30 and 40 applicants. She said Reinhold was the best choice.
"She's working at Kansas Legal Services in Kansas City, Kan. right now." Hardesty said. "I think that background will help a lot when she gets here."

Students celebrate Chinese New Year
Bv Dannv Phillios
By Danny Phillips writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
New Year's celebrations in Lawrence don't often include sword demonstrations and children running around, but then, not many people are familiar with the Chinese version.
The Chinese Students and Scholars Friendship Association drew 200 people to its annual New Year's party last night at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries. Their new year is based on the Chinese lunar calendar, not the Western solar calendar, which is why it falls on a different date every year between late January and mid-February.
For many Chinese students attending the University of Kansas, the Chinese New Year is a celebration intended for families and socializing
"So many Chinese can get together," said Jingfeng Jiang, Lawrence graduate student. "We have so few chances."
CSSFA vice-president Heng Ng, Lawrence graduate student, said the Chinese New Year was the most important holiday in her culture," just like your Christmas."
Afterward, the partygoers watched a taped broadcast of the Chinese Central Television's New Year's coverage, which had to be recorded this morning because of the time difference between China and Lawrence.
Because many KU Chinese students are married, the organization's president, Bei Li, Shanghai graduate student, said it was important to organize celebrations that fit into their schedules.
The New Year's party began with a 12-performance culture show that included singers, a poem recital, a traditional Chinese opera excerpt and a Taiji sword performance.
"That's why I put it last," joked Bei, who organized the event.
"They have families, so they don't have much time." Bel said.
The CCTV New Year's broadcast began in the 1980s, Bei said, and it's become a huge tradition in China for which more than 50 percent of the
Bei's favorite act was the folk dance finale. Admittedly, she's a bit biased — she was one of the dancers.
country tunes in.
Renee Bergene, study abroad coordinator, attended the party because she wanted to gain a deeper understanding of the Chinese culture. She coordinates student exchanges between the University and the University of Hong Kong, and said she hoped that by learning more about Chinese culture, she'd be able to promote the exchange program better.
Many of the Chinese students at the University are graduates, said Bel, because it's very expensive for undergraduates to study at an American university. She also many of the graduate students either received scholarships or became teaching assistants.

Local veggie joint closed during break
Kansan staff writer
By Erin Adamson
The Glass Onion has offered healthy, cheap food at the top of the hill for 11 years, but the campus fixture closed its doors forever during winter break.
Owner Bob Jones said he closed the restaurant, 624 W. 12th St., because it was no longer making money. The restaurant had reduced its hours during the fall semester.
"Parking has probably been the biggest problem in that location," Jones said. "Maybe because Yello Sub is so popular people are willing to work around the parking."
The Glass Onion was located above Yello Sub in the same building.
The restaurant also faced competition from the many coffee shops and restaurants offering vegetarian food that have opened in recent years, he said.
The restaurant was one of the first restaurants in Lawrence to serve vegetarian and vegan food. Jones said his restaurant always had focused on healthy fare.
"When I bought it in 1989 it was a hamburger joint," Jones said.
"I turned it into what it's been for the past 10 years or so — focused primarily on vegetarian food."
Jones also owns the two Yello Sub sandwich shop locations in town, and said the space formerly occupied by the Glass Onion would be converted into additional seating for Yello Sub's location near campus.
Ramona DeNies, Portland, Ore., senior, worked as a waitress at the restaurant during the fall semester until the restaurant closed.
DeNies said she thought that most regular customers did not realize the restaurant was in trouble and expressed shock at its closing.
"I was really upset that it closed," DeNies said. "It was an incredible work environment. I enjoyed my coworkers, and we had an interesting and amiable clientele."
"Everyone considered that it was the old standard that would never go," DeNies said. "But a business is not a monument like an old oak tree."
DeNies said the Glass Onion was known for its milkshakes, its Friday quaddaill special and tofu pups, a vegetarian hot dog

Guidelines to define downtown style
Frin Adamson
A developpe designed guidelines for the decoration of exterior of buildings downtown in order to keep
Erin Adamson writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
A development task force has
City Commission
the heart of Lawrence a thriving pedestrian thoroughfare.
Commissioner David Dunfield said the goal was to develop up and not out.
Whenever the surface of a building in downtown Lawrence is altered or a new building is designed, the city will review the building to make sure it fits the pattern of downtown development, he said.
The city is setting guidelines for responsible redevelopment and maintenance of the downtown as part of the Downtown 2000 project. The adoption of design guidelines is just one piece of the project.
Dennis Enslinger, historic resources administrator, said
the guidelines were intended, in part, to clear up confusion about what was an appropriate building style to add downtown. He said the need for guidelines became clear when Borders wanted to develop at 700 New Hampshire St.
The development was controversial, he said, because many members of the community felt the building would not maintain the historic style of downtown and would encourage irresponsible development and sprawl.
Commissioner Mike Rundle supported the new guidelines.
"Downtown has universal support and love across the community," Rundle said. "This is a way for us to take care of the community."
Commissioner Marty Kennedy also said that it was important to have the guidelines in order to maintain the quality and atmosphere of the downtown area.
The design guidelines would not determine what kind of business could occupy a building.
The guidelines would ask builders to conform to the overall pattern of downtown buildings — large ground level windows, a decorative pattern of second story windows, two- or three-story buildings on corners, and buildings built to the
edge of the sidewalk.
Ensinger said one example of a building that would not have been approved if there had been guidelines when it was constructed was the FirstStar bank building. 900 Massachusetts St. He said that according to the new guidelines, the building was much too tall to fit the scale of other buildings on the street and it was set back from the sidewalk, which discouraged pedestrian interaction with the building.
The guidelines would also recommend that parking lots facing Massachusetts Street be redeveloped so that open spaces wouldn't break the continuity of the buildings.
New buildings would not need to conform to the predominant nineteenth century style of the downtown. Rather, they would need to contribute to a style that was pedestrian-friendly and consistent, Enlinger said.
Other projects included in the Downtown 2000 project are the construction of a new lawrence Arts Center, a new 500-space parking garage, and loft apartments, all on the 900 block of New Hampshire Street.
The project is designed to bring people into the city center.

Editorial board: President shouldn't interfere with abortion
Bush already showing he will threaten Roe
President George W. Bush should be familiar with Roe v. Wade. The class action lawsuit that led to the historic Supreme Court decision began in Texas.
In the early 1970s, the lawsuit challenged a Texas law that denied a woman the right to an abortion unless her life was in danger. The Court spoke clearly on the issue Jan. 22, 1973, and declared the law unconstitutional. As he settles into the office of president of the United States, Bush should remember this: It is unconstitutional to restrict a woman's right to an abortion.
President Bush does not seem to care what the Court ruled. As governor of Texas, he said, "I will do everything in my power to restrict abortion." It is only reasonable to assume that he will bring this attitude to the White House
we can already see that: Monday, he issued an executive order denying federal aid to overseas groups that provide abortion counseling and help women obtain abortions.
Although Bush says he will not use abortion as a main issue for potential Supreme Court appointees, he has said that he will appoint justices who are strict constructionists. Translated, this means that he will look for judges who do not support the underlying but unwritten constitutional right to privacy that is the foundation of Roe v. Wade.
The fight for abortion and reproductive rights for women did not end or begin with the decision. Women have long battled for their right to decide when they have children. Any move Bush makes against the ruling could be especially devastating now, as states are already scaling back abortion rights through parental consent and late-term abortion bans.
Bush's stance on abortion and family planning is contradictory. While campaigning, he said that he supported banning abortion in all cases except rape, incest or when the life of the pregnant woman was in danger. At the same time, he said that he wanted to set the goal that all children would be welcomed into life and protected by law. Children are not welcomed or protected if they are born to a mother who cannot care for them or who is having a child against her will. They are not welcomed or protected if they are born into a world that cannot already take care of the children it has.
Protection of the right to an abortion is neces sary as long as extreme poverty, over population and irresponsible mistakes exist. When President Bush fixes all of these problems and knows for sure every child is welcomed and protected, he may then move on to the issue of abortion.

Editorial board: Roe v. Wade turned America for the worse
Legal abortions foster social irresponsibility
bortion is the greatest crime against females, even more of a violation of a woman's body and spirit
Than rape. What good comes from legalized abortions? Not in once all the discussions and debates, protests and confrontations between pro-choice and pro-life advocates has anyone given a satisfactory answer.
Since 1973, cases of breast cancer in women who have had

also experience agonizing cramping and profuse bleeding, as well as greater risks of miscarriages in later pregnancies. Some are never able to conceive properly again.
Mentally, men and women simply cannot handle stress nearly as well as before *Roe v. Wole*. Consider the 1,112 percent increase in reported cases of child abuse since 1973 (a figure from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services). Relationships crumble, self-esteem plumms and disease spreads. And children suffer.
How fascinating that our society would hold in such high regard a practice that not only slaughters the defenseless, but also finds victims in those that pay to have it performed. It abandons them to a lifetime of nightmares, physical pain and emptiness. Shame on our nation for allowing this to be a social norm.
It's a joke for our country not only to allow the murder of children, but also to justify it as an issue of personal
We should rally around our sisters with open arms, offering both emotional and financial support for their journey down the challenging yet beautiful road of
motherhood. But instead of helping, society brands these women as selfish, telling them that they won't be accepted unless their inconvenience is eliminated. Not being able to find a parking space, losing a wallet—those are inconveniences. Children are not.
How dare any pro-choice activist — male or female — tell a woman that she is less of a productive member of society for being with child. Just who decided a successful woman should model herself after this unattached, irresponsible male model that is so often deemed ideal? The strength of a woman lies in her femininity and the uniqueness of her creation, which includes her ability to bear children — not in her right to choose.
Women must accept the responsibility we have for one another (including our unborn children) and open our eyes to this murderous alternative to birth. It only perpetuates a societal trend of irresponsibility.
To be truly liberated, we must reject all ideas that abortion gives women more freedom. It only truly liberates men from commitment and forces women to embrace male standards. Women must indeed celebrate their womanhood; not by murdering the lives within them, but in celebrating the purest form of their femininity.
Although the right to choose does offer sexual liberty, it also brings heartbreak for years to come. There is more to consider than just immediacy. What a different nation we would live in if only our population would step up to the challenge presented in choosing life. It would redeem the valor and morality our nation was founded upon.

Perspective
Debacle of framing news stressed by inauguration
In the interest of full disclosure, I have to say that when it comes to politics, I lean to the left. I was pro-Clinton and anti-independent counsel, and while I hate to admit it, by process of elimination I was also pro-Gore.
But in the interest of being a responsible readers' representative, I also have to say that I questioned the front page of Monday's Kansan.
The lead story was headlined, "Bush takes office amid protests," and the accompanying picture showed dozens of protectors
with signs claiming election fraud and Bush's illegitimacy as president of the United States.
My first impression was that the Kansan missed the point and that by highlighting an interesting — but relatively insignificant — aspect of Saturday's inauguration, it allgumed itself with those people whose political preferences are well, pretty darn obvious.
As journalists, that's not our job. The election controversy was news in November. This
P
week, the news was that Americans have a new president, and Monday's story should have been about his inauguration.

But every issue has a flip side.
Mindie Miller, managing editor at the Kansan,
suggested that by the time Monday's story hit the
newstands, the inauguration was old news and the
Kansan needed a new angle.
Kansan editor Lori O'Otoole agreed and pointed out that Saturday's protests were the largest since Nixon's inauguration during the peak of the Vietnam War, a pretty newsworthy fact. O'Otoole
said rehashing the inauguration would have been pointless.
"A lot of the readers who would read the story about the inauguration watched it more than two days ago," she said.
But pointless is a relative term. The inauguration was televised across the nation Saturday afternoon for the benefit of anyone interested. Yet Sunday morning, newspapers ran "day-old" inauguration stories.
"Bush's vow: 'America at its best,' was The Kansas City Star's headline.
"Bush takes solemn oath," proclaimed The Wichita Eagle.
The Topeka Capital Journal ran a photo of Bush hugging his parents, and The New York Times showed Bush with his right hand solemnly held in the air.
The stories in those newspapers fit their headlines and photos — they focused on what Bush said rather than those who didn't like what he said.
Miller said that ideally, the Kansan would have run one story on Bush's speech and another on the protests, which some University of Kansas students attended. But like any newspaper, the Kansan faces limited space, and an editorial decision had to be made. This time, the decision was to go for new spin.
I agree with Miller that in a perfect world, two stories would have run. I disagree with the Kansan's final decision: If a newspaper is going to run only one story on an issue, it needs to be the right one.
This time, the right one was not about protestors, and by running that story we opened ourselves up to legitimate accusations of liberal leanings.
But then again, I have the benefit of hindsight.

Safety office begins search for trainees
The KU Public Safety Office is accepting applications for two University police officer trainee positions until Friday.
Trainees will respond to campus medical emergencies, arrest offenders, write traffic tickets, conduct criminal investigations, seize narcotics and assist the Lawrence Police Department when necessary, Lt. Schuver Balley said.
Bailey said the new hires would replace two officers who had left the force for personal reasons, decreasing the number of employees to 26.
"We have enough officers right now that we can answer all our calls," Bailey said.
"With the new officers, we'll have more time to spend on follow-ups and selective projects."
Bailey said the new officers would be patrolling by Monday, April 30.

Applicants will be interviewed and must submit to a background check before employee selections are made, Bailey said. Finalists will interview with the director of public safety.
"When they're hired, there's more tests." Bailey said. "There will be a behavioral assessment, drug test and a physical." Trainees will receive four to six weeks of training, which will include meeting city officials and representatives from University departments and learning how to write reports and use department radios.
"We just show them our way of doing things," Bailey said. "Some come from different areas, and they don't even know Lawrence. They're just as new to KU as the freshman are."
Applicants must be certified law enforcement officers in Kansas or be qualified for admission to a nine-week program at the Law Enforcement Training Center in October.

Report: some students prefer info on paper
By Cássio Furtado

Kansan staff writer
For some University of Kansas students, technology may be a curse instead of a blessing.
Students increasingly are complaining about instructors' use of technology in class, according to an annual report released last week by Robert L. Shelton, University umbudsmus.
Specifically, students have taken issue with instructors who post a syllabus or course readings online without handing out copies in class, the report said.
University Senate Rules and Regulations say such information should be available "preferably in writing." However, the rules do not state whether a faculty member may revise a syllabus and notify students through email or a class Web site only, without discussing changes in class.
Shelton said his report was based on informal conversations with students, faculty and staff between July 1999 and June 2000
He said even though technology could be a good thing, many students didn't know how to use that technology.
As ombdusman, Shelton informs students about University policies and releases an annual report to encourage discussion about issues at the University.
Susan Zvacek, director of Instruction and Development Support, agreed with Shelton's assessment of students' willingness to use technology. Zvacek said problems arose because more information gradually had been made available online, but was not always discussed in class.
Anthony Walton, associate professor of geology, offers the syllabus for his introduction to geology class online. He also makes past exams and lecture notes available to students online.
"Anything that makes them available is good," Walton said. "They need the information."
Walton, however, said many students

thought the Internet was a substitute for going to class.
"It's not." he said.
"I could do the homework online," she said.
Julie Sisk, Olathe sophomore, said one course she took last semester included class notes and assignments online, so it wasn't a problem if a student had to miss a class. She didn't go to class as often as she would have without an online component.
Shelton's report included 370 contacts, with 23 contacts regarding conflicts between students and instructors, 31 concerning grade issues and 45 dealing with department or school regulations, policies or procedures.

Nontraditional students offer advice, support at brown-bag luncheon series
By Michelle Ward
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Renee Caldwell is a full-time mother, wife and employee at the University of Kansas. In her spare time, Caldwell is working, little by little, toward completing her bachelor's degree.
While time constraints have presented the biggest problem for the mother of two preschoolers, Caldwell has noticed other things. The 30-year-old Lawrence freshman has had moments of insecurity around her younger counterparts.
While she said she felt some frustration at returning to school, she is not alone as a nontraditional student in search of a degree.
"Gravity has struck." she said. "As I sit, things are no longer perky or supply, and I'm surrounded by 19-year-old perfection."
"It allows you to hook up with other nontrads on a weekly basis. It is nice to see some familiar faces."
Deena Hardie Lawrence senior
KU Non Trads, formerly called Organization of Adult Knowledge Seekers, offers support and camaraderie at 11:30 a.m. each Wednesday with its brown bag lunch series. The luncheons take place at Alcove E on the third floor of the Kansas Union.
"Some people come to get something from the cafeteria, or others just come to socialize," said Michael Roessler, Lawrence graduate student and president of Non Trades. "It is a chance for us to meet and plan events.
We can talk to each other about what is going on in our lives and classes.
While people often assume nontraditional students all are older than average students, the University's definition is much broader.
The University declares anyone older than 24 or anyone who has had a three-year gap in his or her education a nontraditional student. Married students, veterans and students commuting more than 10 miles to campus also fall into this category.
Deena Hardie, Lawrence senior, has attended the lunches for the past three years. While it initially offered a time to bond with fellow students, she said she now listened to the concerns of her constituents as a nontraditional student senator.
"It allows you to hook up with other nonrats on a weekly basis," she said. "It is nice to see some familiar faces." Edited by Melinda Warner

Library dean search causes concern

By Andrew Davies writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
University officials are starting a search for a new dean of libraries, but some professors are concerned how the new dean will direct purchases of library resources.
The opening came after Keith Russell retired Jan. 10 because of health reasons. Julia Rhodes is serving as interim dean during the search process.
Marilu Goodyear, vice chancellor
"We have not set up a committee yet," she said. "I expect that to be done reasonably soon."
of information, said the search process was still in its infancy.
The concern comes from David Smith, associate professor of sociology, who recently wrote an open letter to the administration and circulated the document to other University faculty members. The document expressed concerns that under the new strategic plan, the library system would be based on electronic resources and not contain enough documents.
"New technologies are desirable, but serious research and teaching requires above all rich, scholarly resources and thus far nothing that is available online even begins to rival what books and journals have to offer." the letter said.
Goodyear said the new dean would not favor having an electronic-based library or document-heavy library but would add resources based on what the University needed.

"I think it's somebody who can
These are issues that will be addressed fully when the search process begins in full in about six weeks, Goodyear said. She said she would work with Provost David Shulenburger in selecting the members of the search committee during that time. The search committee will consist of students and faculty.
Goodyear said although the new dean would have the advice of others, he or she would have to lead the process of implementing the strategy.
gic plan.
"I think the leader is always critical to the process," she said. "The new dean will coordinate, manage and lead that process."
Shulenburger said the strategic plan would not dramatically change the requirements for the new dean, and the University needed "someone who appreciates the responsibility and has the skills to get material needed for both groups."
Goydaear she hoped to have a new dean in place by next January.

Eyes need relaxation to avoid discomfort

Kansan staff writer
Staring at computer screens all day and reading for long periods of time can leave students complaining of eye strain.
Kristyn Westphal. Prairie Village senior, said eye strain caused headaches and her vision to become blurry.
"My eyes would always hurt because I would read for long periods of time without a blink but she said it would have a hard time seeing."
Elizabeth Crandon, a Lawrence optometrist, said eye strain was a common problem for students.
"We see a lot of students here who suffer from eye strain," Crandon said. "Eye strain is a common problem for students who use computers for long periods of time."
Crandon said symptoms of eye strain included tiring eyes, blurry vision, red eyes and headaches.
Cassie Cool, Wichita freshman, said she also suffered regularly from eye strain.
"My vision always goes blurry, and I get headaches when I work at the computer for long periods of time," she said.
Cool said applying eye drops and taking breaks helped her

recover from eye strain and focus better.
Crandon advised students who had symptoms of eye strain should see an optometrist.
"An optometrist will often give several remedies for those suffering with eye strain." Crandon said. "Some will get prescription glasses which will help relax the eyes and help them to focus. Often times non-users wear glasses to patients with eye strain in order to relieve the symptoms of dry eye."
Westphal said she had benefited from prescription eyewear.
"Glasses relieved my symptoms of eye strain," Westphal said. "They help me to focus better and read for long periods without bluriness or headaches."
Crandon also advised students who suffered from eye strain should take frequent breaks.

Parents' pad has pros, cons
Living at home can ease burden
By Cynthia Malakasis
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Becca Humburg doesn't pay rent or utilities.
Humburg, Lawrence senior,
chose to move back in with
her parents this summer, giving
up apartment life for a significant break in her
expenses.
"My brother moved to Denver for a job, so I moved back in," Humburg said. "There's a little studio apartment attached to my parents' house with an internal door — which most of the times remains unlocked — so I figured I wouldn't have to pay rent anymore."
Living with one's parents, though, is a package deal. While students with tight budgets can save money by living at home, there are some disadvantages.
"It can get a little overwhelming, sometimes." Humburg said. "I don't have a curfew or anything, and I can
have friends over at all times, but my parents are overly concerned about me."
Sometimes, however, the choice to live at home while in college is made for cultural purposes.
Fallon Farokhi, a Lawrence freshman of Iranian descent, is one example.
"In our culture, most girls stay in their parents' houses until they're married and move in with their husbands." Tarokhi said.
Even though Farokhi said she lived a completely normal college lifestyle she has a job and an active social life like many American students
her choice to live with her parents bore traces of her cultural origins.
"I'm still attached to my parents, and I would have a hard time leaving them and making the transition to college life at the same time," Farokhi said.
She said she also didn't want to feel she had too much time and freedom on her hands, and neglect her studies.
"My parents ask me about school and studying, and I still feel like there's some kind of control," Farokhi
said.
Although parental control is something college students might resent, Farokhi said there were ways of getting around it.
"My parents are lenient," she said. "The only thing they insist upon is sleeping in my own bed every night, however late I return."
Although Humburg and Farokhi have different reasons for living with their parents, both said such living arrangements were temporary.
"I lived with my parents my freshman and sophomore year, and I absolutely needed to move out after that," Humburg said.
She said it was an issue of having her own space and learning responsibility.
"I had to pay my own bills and learn how to cook," Humburg said. "Now I love to cook."
Farokhi said her parents encouraged her to move out.
"My parents feel I'm a little too dependent on them," Farokhi said. "They think that moving out is how people grow up faster."

Nature helping Galapagos combat fuel spill
The Associated Press
BUERTO
PUERTO BAQUERIZO, Galapagos Islands — Bad weather blocked diesel fuel cleanup efforts around a stricken tanker yesterday, but fortuitous winds were pushing thousands of gallons of spilled fuel away from the fragile environment of the Galapagos islands.
Slicks from last week's diesel spill had spread over an area bigger than Los Angeles, and yesterday, pounding surf around the disabled tanker Jessica halted recovery operations:
A giant wave washed over the ship's bow, injuring its captain and bruising several recovery workers.
Despite the complications, though, nature was also providing a helping hand for the islands, an ecosystem populated by species found nowhere else in the world and an inspiration for Charles Darwin's theory of evolution.
Ecuadorean Environment Minister Rodolfo Rendon said yesterday the spilled diesel had shifted direction "toward the northwest, which is an open zone where there are no major islands." He said the
spill, which officials had blamed on navigational error, was "a problem, not a tragedy."
The Galapagos chain — consisting of 13 major islands, six small islands and scores of islets — is 600 miles west of the Ecuadorian mainland and is the country's main tourist attraction. Despite the wind shift, the spill here has taken a toll on the chain's unique wildlife.
Oil reached Santa Fe Island, 37 miles west of San Cristobal, the easternmost island in the Galapagos archipelago and home to large colonies of sea lions and
www.kansas.edu
marine iguanas. Rendon said one pelican had died and the fuel had harmed some 40 other animals, including sea lions, seagulls, blue-footed boobies and albatrosses, which had been rescued and cleaned.
Robert Bensted-Smith, director of the Charles Darwin Research Station, told The Associated Press long-term damage was still being assessed.
He said beside the strong currents pushing the fuel out to sea, heavy sunshine had helped evaporate some of the oil. But, he said, there
was evidence an undetermined quantity sea urchins and seaweed had died on San Cristobal.
One long-term threat of the spill is that the escaped fuel will sink to the ocean floor, destroying algae vital to the food chain. That could threaten marine iguanas, sharks, birds that feed off fish and other species.
The Jessica, which ran aground Jan. 16 with about 243,000 gallons of fuel, was still listing sharply to its right in shallow waters about 550 yards from San Cristobal's shore. Some 170,000 gallons of diesel fuel have poured from the tanker.

However, Riat said a temporary fix would be better than nothing if walkways became especially dangerous in a specific area, even if the concrete would need to be redone again in just a few months.
"If it becomes too hazardous, then we have to address it in some temporary way." Riat said.
Scott noted stairs between Haworth Hall and Facilities Operation Drive in particular. In addition to harboring messy puddles, the stairs are especially scary when they're icy, she said.
Depending on the extent of the damage, facilities operations workers either patch or entirely replace sections of stairs and sidewalks, but the department usually fixes them during the summer, when there is less traffic on campus.
Jennifer Scott, Manhattan senior and KU Ambassador, said she was extra cautious walking backward when giving campus tours but that she noticed several areas with deteriorating stairs while walking — forward — to class.
Additional information for this story was gathered by Reporting II students Sara Bouska, Summer Lewis, Rachel Moluf and Anthony Reyes. The four students traversed campus on foot, recording their findings of crumbling stairs and sidewalks.
A representative from the provost's office was unavailable for comment yesterday afternoon.

"they're just kind of crumby the whole way down," Scott said. "When it's leck out, it's really bad."
Rait said facilities operations spent between $50,000 and $100,000 every year on repairs to campus steps.
Last year, several sets of stairs were completely replaced, including those behind the Art and Design Building as well as the stairs leading from Naismith Drive to Learned Hall, Riaat said.

Tennis gets new coach's first wins

First-year coach Ross Nwachukwu must prepare his men's tennis team for its round-broin tournament Saturday and Sunday, but forgive him if he's still enloving last weekend's results.
Kansas overpowered both Southwest Missouri State and Creighton on Saturday at Alvamar Racquet Club, handing Nwachuwu his first victories after his September promotion from assistant to head coach.
"Winning the first match feels pretty good." Nwachukwu said.
Winning "the first match" feels pretty good." Nwachuwn kuad. Kansas (2-0) breezed past Southwest Missouri (0-1) 7-2 in the early match and later convincingly beat Creighton (0-1), 8-1.
Both matches were played without Kansas' top singles player, junior Rodrigo Echagaray. He had to sit out a day's competition in order to maintain eligibility for NCAA tournament play later in the season. By placing at the Region V team championships Oct. 29 in Tulsa, Okla., Echagaray had to miss one day of scheduled competition.
Junior Quentin Blakeney, sophomore Pete Streor and Junior Alex Barrangan also went undefeated.
Sophomore Eleazar Magallan stepped up in Echagaray's absence with victories against Southwest Missouri's Jan Vanco and Creighton's Olive Foth.
Blakeney said early season victories were important to build confidence.
"I was confident that we would come out strong," said Nwachukwu "We had a good week of practice."
"These two matches under our belt help our confidence going into a very competitive week," he said.
The season opener marked inaugural matches for three Kansas freshmen. David Stauffer, Andrew Metzler and Gustavo Telles saw action during Saturday's sweep.
Metzler overcame a rugged three-seed loss against Southwest Missouri State in the early match against Oklahoma, a history against Craighon's Matt Tait.
Metzler teamed with Telles earlier in the day and defeated Creighton in a doubles-match victory.
Nwachukwu was all smiles after a successful start.
"Overall the team played hard. I really look forward to an exciting season." he said.
Kansas' round robin tournament will be against Middle Tennessee State and Louisville at Alvamar Racquet Club.
'Hawks face Sooner test

Kansas sportwriter
Tonight's matchup will test the toughness and determination of the Kansas women's basketball team when the Jayhawks tip off against No. 12 Oklahoma at 7:05 in Allen Fieldhouse.
The Sooners (13-4, 4-1 Big 12 Conference) promise to be one of the most difficult opponents the Jayhawks (7-9, 1-4 Big 12) will encounter this season.
And this contest comes at a challenging time for Kansas.
The 'Hawks need a victory tonight to snap their current two-game losing streak and begin a climb out of the recent slump that has resulted in seven losses in their last 10 games.
But that won't be easy. The Sooners are on a four-game winning streak, tied for third place in the Big 12 and have won eight of their last 10 games.
"It's going to be a 40-minute challenge for us," said Coach Marian Washington. "We have to play some of our host, beo
our pest basketball to be in a position to win."
To do that,
the Jayhawks
will have to go
to the defensive drawing board
and look for a way to stop three Sooners who average in double figures.
"All we can do is the same thing we've been doing. We've got to continue to play hard."

Kansas senior centerr
Oklahoma has posted 90 or more points in its past three games, including its 94-76 victory against North Carolina on Sunday.
They bring strong guards to the table in juniors LaNeishea Caufield, one of the nation's best in steals with 75, and Stacey Dales, averaging 16.6 points and 7.5 assists.
Throw in Caton Hill, a 6-foot-1 forward who averages 8.8 boards and 12.3 points, and Sunny Hardeman, a 5-7 guard who shoots 47.1 percent from behind the arc, and the Jayhawks could have their hands full all night long.
"We just have to make sure we're real clear about what it is we're trying to accomplish and work real hard to stay disciplined in our strategy." Washington said.
The Jayhawks continue to rely heavily on senior center Jaclyn Johnson, senior guard Jennifer Jackson and senior forward Brooke Reves for most of their scoring, and until other players start putting some points on the board. Washington said the focus would be keeping opponent scoring down.
"We're just going to concentrate on our defense and see if we can't hold our opponents to a lower shooting percentage as we try to get some other players to step up," Washington said. "I think that is a good place for us to start."
The Jayhawks struggled on the glass against Oklahoma State and Colorado, giving them second and sometimes third chances to score. Washington said along with reducing the number of turnovers the 'Hawks had given up, rebounding and blocking out would be major factors against Oklahoma.
"We've just got to do the things that we're capable of doing," Washington said.
The biggest factor in the recent games has been the attitude the
Jayhawks bring to the floor. Staying intense and determined for 40 minutes has been a challenge, but for the most part, the 'Hawks are ready for tonight's tough competitor.
"All we can do is keep doing the same thing we've been doing," Johnson said. "We've got to continue to play hard. My attitude's never going to change. I am going to go out and fight every game. I'm going to go out and do what I'm supposed to do every game." — Edited by Sydney Wallace
Jayhawks shooting red-hot

A strong defensive front never hurt a team on its way to winning a championship, but some heavy artillery fire could always come in handy.
Lucky for No. 4 Kansas, the Jayhawks have lots of weapons on the offensive end of the basketball court. For starters, six players are averaging double figures in scoring, led by senior forward Kenny Gregory's 16.7 points per game. They also have five everyday players shooting better than 50 percent from the field.
All of that adds up to Kansas shooting 52 percent from the field, the highest field goal percentage in the country. Kansas coach Roy Williams chalked the explanation for the sharp shooting to a focus on giving the ball to his bigger players.
"If you have big guys who can score then you have a better chance of shooting a high percentage," Williams said. "Then if you have guys from the outside that can make some three's to extend the defense so it gives the big guys more room to operate, then you
should shoot a high percentage."
Next, the Jayhawks have players who can hit outside shots. Sophomore point guard Kirk Hinrich is hitting 53 percent from three-point range, while senior guard Luke Axell is hitting 40 percent of his shots behind the arc. Junior guard Jeff Boscheme has been on a tear in the last four games, hitting 15 of 28 three-point attempts.
That said, Williams' squad has those very tools. He has the big boys inside who are shooting high percentages, led by sophomore forward Nick Collison's 65 percent and Gregory's 58 percent.
Collison has been a major focus of the Kansas offense since conference play began. He has made 31 of 46 shots in conference play and is among the conference leaders in field goal percentage. That accuracy has made him a prime target for passes from Hirnich.
"I'm playing well now," Collison said. "I know what I'm capable of doing out there and I don't try to do too much. I'm still aggressive and I'm just playing right now and getting some good looks."
Sports Columnist
Brian Hanni
Collison's doing the little things right, which is something Williams said he loved to see.
Sophomore forward Drew Gooden said the key was that Williams had ingrained into his players' heads the idea of taking smarter shots.
"He is playing very well," Williams said. "Nick will tell you he's shooting from two inches. Like guys who can make 'em from two inches. A lot of guys don't get it in that close."
"Coach Williams let us know early in the preseason that we were going to take better shots," Gooden said. "The teams in the past that went to the Final Four took better shots and shot a higher percentage like we are right now."
Ultimately, Gooden gave credit to one of the non-players players for the shooting success of the Jayhawks — Hinrich. Gooden credits Hinrich with getting the Kansas big men the ball inside, and for giving them the ball in situations where they can get easy baskets. Hinrich has 30 assists in the last three games — all Kansas victories — but he knows opponents are taking notice.
"It's gonna be tough from here on out," Hinrich said. "We've got a big bullseye on our chest now. We're on top and everybody's gonna be shooting for us."

Royals made smart choice with Sweeney
Alex Rodriguez is not coming to Kansas City. Manny Ramirez won't be riding the Blue Wave at Kauffman Stadium, either. Mike Mussina would rather wear pinstripes than pitch at "The K."
There won't be any huge free-agent additions to the Kansas City Royals this year, but that's okay. Last Thursday, the Royals got their man when they signed Mike Sweeney for two more years.
Signing the 27-year-old first baseman was a small step in a big plan to keep Sweeney in Kansas City for the rest of his career. If the Royals manage to pull off that feat, Sweeney's signing will be bigger than any other in the major leagues.
in an era when pro ballplayers' egos are as big as their incredible salaries, Sweeney is the exception. He took less money than he is worth to stay with the franchise and community that he loves.
Some people will argue Sweeney is not the most important piece of the puzzle in the Royals organization, and in some cases, they might be right.
In this day and age, players like Sweeney just don't spend their whole careers in little markets like Kansas City. Guys who hit .333 and put up 144 RBI are usually sweep off their feet by big market teams with huge payrolls.
But Sweeney does, however, have a lot of something that not many pro athletes seem to have these days — character.
Sweeney may not possess the same defensive skills his teammate Jermaine Dye does in right field. He may not have the speed on the base paths former Royal Johnny Damon will now display with Oakland.
In addition to being the Royals best hitter, Sweeney is far and away their greatest ambassador. He encompasses everything that is still good about the pro game today. Mike Sweeney is a leader in the locker room, a hero in the community and the best role model out there for baseball's younger fans.
When he's not swinging for the fences or laying out for line drives, he's in the classroom speaking to kids about the importance of their education. Sweeney is the representative for the Royals Perfect Attendance Program. In addition, he is very active in the Greater Kansas City Fellowship of Christian Athletes, in which he speaks to youth about his faith.
His FCA speaking tour led him to Lawrence on Monday night when he spoke to two groups in the Kansas Union. Sweeney also goes out of his way to provide all kinds of sports memorabilia to be auctioned for FCA. Amidst all of that, Sweeney still finds time to organize a celebrity golf tournament every year to benefit the Medical Center of Independence, Mo. The list goes on.
Keeping Sweeney in Kansas City will not only pay huge dividends on the diamond for the boys in blue, but it will keep one of the game's greatest ambassadors in a sports town that needs him badly. The RBI will keep coming and so will all his work in the community. You just can't find value like that on the free-agent market these days.
The vision statement for the Kansas City Royals organization is called "The Royal Way." It challenges the club "to be recognized as a premier baseball organization with winning values on and off the field." It lists those values as "trust and integrity, loyalty and commitment, teamwork, accountability, pride and ownership."
No one exemplifies those traits like Mike Sweeney. He is the walking, talking, home run-hitting version of "The Royal Way."
The best part is, he's here to stay.

Nebraska attacker ioins Jayhawk roster
箭
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
The women's soccer team announced the addition of Lacey Woolf, a freshman attacker from Nebraska, to its roster effective immediately. Woolf enrolled at Kansas during the semester break and has begun off-season training with her new teammates.
Woolf, a native of Urbandale, Iowa, was part of Nebraska's Big 12 Conference regular season and tournament championship team last fall and helped the "Huskers advance to the Sweet 16 at the NCAA Tournament.
"For Lacey coming in from Nebraska, just being there for a season is an experience she can share with the team," said Kansas coach Mark Francis. "It is always good to get players in with experience at the college level already, especially if they are coming from a program that is in the top three or four in the country."
Also joining the Kansas team for off-season training is Meg Shively, a transfer from Louisville. Shively played in 19 games for the Cardinals, scoring two goals on 20 shots.

In Colorado, a motorist is considered legally impaired (DUI) with a blood-alcohol level of .10 percent or higher. Any reading from .050 to .099 percent is considered driving while ability impaired (DWAI).
Wood said if the charges were dismissed, he did not expect to suffer any punishment from the team.
Wood has had no prior DUI-related arrests, and his car was not impounded after the arrest. He was booked and released later Sunday morning.
"It was unfortunate what happened," he said. "We were coming from a party, and I had a couple of drinks earlier in the night, maybe three or three-and-a-half hours before I was arrested."
Wood, a junior, played in 10 games for the Buffaloes last season, recording two interceptions and 21 tackles, including 18 solos. He is considered a strong contender to start at corner as a senior this fall.
Wood said he believed he was sober when he got in his car.

Jackson, 60, joined the Rams prior to the 2000 season as running backs coach. He was named offensive coordinator just prior to training camp. Along with Martz, he guided an offense that led the NFL in several categories.
Jackson will continue his duties as offensive coordinator and running backs coach.
"It's just an indication of how important he is to me, this team, and this program," Martz said of Jackson.
Zampese, 33, joined the Rams staff as an offensive assistant prior to last season. He is the son of longtime NFL offensive coordinator Emie Zampese, an early mentor to Martz.
"Ken is a brilliant young coach," Martz said. "He really understands what we're trying to do offensively."
what we are trying to do is observe Ellard, 39, coached at Fresno State last season. The 16-year NFL veteran spent 11 seasons with the Rams (1983-1993). He is eighth in NFL history in receptions and third in receiving yards.

First-time PGA pro fails to make cut
The Associated Press
HONOLULU — Matt Kuchar never needed money to smile.
That much was evident when he walked off the 18th green at Waiataale Country Club as the sun began to duck behind Diamond Head. The Sony Open was his first PGA Tour event as a professional, but some things never change.
Kuchar didn't earn a dime in Hawaii.
And the smile that charmed galleries during his special run through the Masters and U.S. Open two years ago came just as easily in a moment of despair. He had just missed the cut.
It was easy to dazzle the world with that gee-whiz grin in 1998. Kuchar was a Georgia Tech sophomore who graced Augusta National with a wide-eyed gaze that belied a game good enough to tie for 21st and earn an invitation back to the Masters.
two months later, Kuchar starred again in the U.S. Open. He outplayed defending champion Ernie Els and British Open champion Justin Leonard to reach the weekend just two strokes off the lead, and wound up in a respectable tie for 14th.
With Kuchar, sometimes it's hard to tell the difference.
Asked about the difference between playing golf as an amateur and a professional, Kuchar recalled a conversation he shared with the caddie he had at the Australian Open, where he made his professional debut and tied for 31st.
"It's pretty cool to play golf for a living, whereas most guys work all their lives to play golf on the weekend," Kuchar said. "It's still golf. Only you receive a check at the end of the week, however."
Just think of the choices it could make. Kuchar has a three-year deal with Precept (hat, bag and ball), but nothing like the contracts on the table when his popularity was at its peak. Kuchar never
He passed it up for two more years at Georgia Tech.
saw any numbers but guesses the deals would have been worth at least $2 million.
He passed it up for two more years at Georgia Tech.
"Had I left school, taken whatever was out there,
even if had I become very successful by this time. I
thought that would have been the best way he could have gone back to school. I wish I could have those two years back to run with all my mates, to not have a care," he said.
The first player to win the U.S. Amateur after Tiger Woods turned pro, Kuchar never won another. He didn't even get past qualifying his last two tries. And Georgia Tech never won an NCAA title, losing to Oklahoma State in a playoff last June.
Kuchar didn't decide to turn pro until after the deadline passed for PGA Tour qualifying school. He worked as an investment banker in south Florida, tempted to follow in the steps of Bobby Jones and remain an amateur for life.
He played the Sony Open on a sponsor's exemption, and hopes to hear back from Pebble Beach this week. Kuchar gets six more exemptions. If he can earn $247,037 — same as 150th player on the money list last year — he gets unlimited exemptions. If not, it's off to Monday qualifying on the PGA or Buy.com tours, or chump change on the mini-tours.
The same week Kuchar made his PGA Tour debut as a pro, Justin Rose came within one stroke of his first professional victory in South Africa.
After Kuchar's stellar play in the Masters and the U.S. Open, the 17-year-old English amateur Rose whipped Royal Birkdale into a frenzy by finishing in a tie for fourth in the British Open. Rose turned up the next day, missed 21 straight cuts and took three trips to European Q-school.
Yukking it up with his mates. Enjoying his youth. Smiling.
Always smiling.

Guards. Kansas is still looking for depth at guard. Senior Jennifer Jackson leads the way, but needs a supporting cast to step up. Oklahoma guards Stacy Dales and LaNeishea Caufield bring a lot of offense, including more than 16 points per game each. Advantage: Oklahoma
Forwards: Oklahoma starts one true forward in Cain Hill, who grabs 8.8 rebounds per game and adds 12.3 points. She will go basically head-to-head with Kansas' Brooke Reves, who has a couple years of experience on Hill. Advantage: Kansas

Sooners riding four-game win streak
Jayhawks must excel to stop potent offense
By Brandon Stinnett sports@kanson.com Kansan sportswriter
The Sooners' high-powered offense has been at full throttle during a four-game winning streak, and the Jayhawks know full well it's hard to stop a train.
The Kansas women's basketball team will meet with a locomotive at 7:05 tonight when it faces No. 12 Oklahoma at Allen Fieldhouse.
"Oklahoma has a potent offense," said Kansas guard Jennifer Jackson. "To say that we can go out there and hold them under 50 points might be a little unrealistic."
Instead, Kansas (7-9 overall)
and 1-4 in the Big 12 Conference) will focus on containing Oklahoma (13-4 and 4-1) by using strong defense to prevent the Sooners from getting untested shots.
But the Jayhawks can't afford to repeat lethargic defensive performances from their last two outings, losses at Oklahoma State and Colorado. But Jackson said that shouldn't be a problem because recent defensive shortcomings were not a usual trademark of Kansas basketball.
"Defense is something that's been the bread and butter of this basketball team for as long as I've been here," she said.
Judging by Oklahoma's latest offensive performance, Kansas is in for a real challenge. The Sooners steamrolled past North Carolina on Sunday, 94-77, shooting 50 percent from the field. Oklahoma also leads the Big 12 in scoring at 83.9 points per game.
"One of the things people asked about this team earlier in the year was 'can they shoot?' Well, yes, we can shoot," said Oklahoma coach Sherri Coale. "We just haven't always taken good shots."
Oklahoma's recent offensive production has gained attention from around the Big 12.
Junior guard Stacey Dales was named Big 12 Player of the Week for her performance in games played Jan. 8 to 14. Dales led the Sooners to victories against No. 17 Texas and Baylor, averaging 20.5 points, eight assists and four rebounds
CL
women's
women's BASKETBALL
in the two games.
And junior guard Rosalind Ross was named Big 12 Rookie of the Week for games played Jan. 15 to 21. Ross, a junior-college transfer, scored a career-high 19 points off the bench against North Carolina, connecting on five three-pointers.
Jackson said records and statistics wouldn't mean a thing once the Jayhawks and Sooners took the court. But this is an important game for Kansas, which needs a victory to break out of its current funk. The 'Hawks have dropped six of their last seven games.
"I think at this point in the season every game is big," Jackson said. "We have to approach every game like it's must-win."

Attila promises drama,big battles
By Chelsea J. Carter The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — In high school, screenwriter Bob Cochran was fascinated with Attila the Hun. So when his agent called years later with the chance to write a four-hour miniseries on the warrior, Cochran jumped at it.
His *Attila*, a two-part miniseries on the USA
network reminiscent of *Gladiator* and *Braveheart*, airs Jan. 30 to 31, at 8 p.m. CST.
The collision of their two worlds is at the heart of the miniseries, which climaxes at the Battle of the Chalons, the outcome of which helped decide the fate of Western Civilization.
"The challenge was capturing the mythic proportions of Attila and the history of Rome, and at the same time capturing the story of the two men at the center of it all," Cochran said.
While Cochran takes historic liberties with the story, the result is a grand epic production that has something for everyone — romance, jealousy, greed, betrayal, sex and, of course, bloody battles.
Both Butler and Boothe shine in the miniseries' small moments, but it's the big moments that make the miniseries — from the Huns' brutal attack on a helpless village to the battles against the Romans.
The story follows Attila (Gerard Butier) and Roman general Flavius Aetius (Powers Boote), two men who represent their respective worlds in the fifth century.
Aetius, on the other hand, represents the best and worst of Rome before its fall. He plots to kill the emperor because he believes he's the only man who can save Rome. But to accomplish his task he must give up the thing he loves most — his daughter — to save his country.
Often cast in history as a mindless plunderer, Cochran's Attila is a visionary who sees more in the Huns than they see in themselves.

Stanford only unbeaten left
STANFORD, Calif. — Mike Montgomery doesn't want his basketball team aspiring to something unrealistic like absolute perfection.
The Associated Press
At the same time, the Stanford coach doesn't want to lose, either.
For the second time in four years, Montgomery's Cardinal are unbeaten in mid-January. It's a
tricky situation for a coach, and Montgomery sums it up for his players with a dictum that sounds more like Yogi Berra than John Wooden.
"We're not going to lose to anybody, but we're going to lose to somebody," Montgomery said.
"That's just the way you have to look at it. We don't go out there to do anything less than our best, but we still know that going unbeaten isn't something you can realistically say you'll do."
In fact, a perfect season is not often discussed at Stanford, even though the Cardinal are the nation's only school that still has a shot at what is perhaps college basketball's most difficult achievement. Indiana's 1975-76 team was the most recent to win every game.
Saturday's 72-44 victory against New Mexico pushed Stanford to 17-0 on the same day Georgetown, the only other unbeaten team, lost its first game, to Pittsburgh.
"We're just playing really great team basketball right now, and we have been all season," said Casey Jacobsen, the Cardinal's leading scorer with 17.9 points a game. "There are always going to be games where bad things happen to
you, but until somebody plays a great game against us and we slip a lot. I don't see us losing."
Stanford visits Washington tomorrow and Washington State on Saturday with the chance to tie and then surpass the school's best start to a season and its longest winning streak. The Cardinal began the 1997-98 season 18-0 and ended up in the Final Four.
Those are the kind of smaller goals Montgomery feels comfortable asking his team to pursue. Another smaller goal is the Pac-10 championship, which Stanford is trying to win for the third straight year.
Stanford beat then-No. 1 Duke 84-
83 in December with a frantic last-
minute rally after being outplayed
for most of the night. Two weeks ago, the Cardinal faced Arizona in Tucson while coach Lute Olson was away from his team, and Stanford got an 85-76 victory.
Every game in our league is tough, and the minute you stop believing that is when you go down," Montgomery said. "That's our goal, to stay on top of our conference."
cleared the two biggest hurdles on their schedule.
Still, it's hard to ignore that on paper the Cardinal already have
Several very difficult matchups remain, such as Arizona's visit to Maples Pavilion on March 8 or the annual trip to Southern California and UCLA. But barring a serious downturn in play, the Cardinal likely will be the favorites in every one of their remaining Pac-10 games.
"Honestly, our focus doesn't go beyond the next game," said point guard Mike McDonald. "We were completely focused on New Mexico, and now we'll be completely focused on Washington. We don't have time in our lives to start thinking about miracle seasons."
Drake ruling unpopular
The Associated Press
DES MOINES, Iowa — A judge ruled against two Drake basketball players seeking to be reinstated after they were declared academically ineligible.
The ruling yesterday by District Judge Eliza Ovrom probably ended any chance Lamont Evans and Dontae Smith, the team's starting guards, had of playing again this season.
Ovrom denied their request for a temporary injunction to prevent Drake from enforcing its grade-point eligibility requirement in their cases. Drake requires athletes to have a cumulative 2.0 grade-point average after each semester, a standard stricter than the NCAA rule.
An attorney for the two, Stephen Nielsen, said the next move had not been determined but there might not be enough time to do anything. Drake's final regular-season game is Feb. 26 and the team would be guaranteed at least one game in the
Missouri Valley Conference tournament, which begins March 2.
"That's a mere six, seven weeks hence." Nielsen said. "It would be unlikely we could get anything done prior to the end of the season, which would render it moot."
"I'm relieved the courts are affirming the institution's priorities, that academic standards are more important than basketball," said university president David Maxwell.
The reaction from Drake was relief.
Evans, a senior, and Smith, a junior, were among four Drake basketball players declared ineligible for the second semester because their grade-point averages fell below a 2.0. The others, Alberto Jempierre and Mike O'Neil, did not take their cases to court.
Ovrom, who heard the case in Polk County District Court last Friday, said for her to allow the players back on the team. Evans and Smith had to prove a "likelihood of success" in their request for a permanent injunction against the university. She said that standard had not been met.
At 11, were eligible under NCAA rules, the university said. Nielsen said Evans and Smith planned to continue their education at Drake.
Attorneys for the players argued both had a good chance of playing professional basketball and their chances of doing so would be irreparably harmed if they weren't on the court.
They also claimed the gradepoint rule had a disproportionate impact on black athletes, which violated federal civil rights law. They pointed out three of the four players declared ineligible were black, including Evans and Smith, and six of the seven scholarship players still on the team were white.
But Ovrom said that was not a large enough sampling to prove discrimination and noted no other evidence was offered on that point.
Georgia works for respect
The Associated Press
ATHENS, Ga. — Jim Harrick relaxed in his courtship chair, a satisfied look on his face, a tiny G pinned to his jacket. Suddenly, he seemed to right in at Georgia.
"The pieces are falling into place," said Harrick, the 62-year-old coach, nodding confidently while glancing down at a stat sheet documenting the Bulldogs' latest victory.
Harrick wore a pained look most of last season. He went back and forth on his decision to move south, then endured Georgia's worst year in more than two decades as it finished 3-13 in the Southeastern Conference, 10-20 overall.
Tennessee.
More important, Harrick's team is tied for first in the Southeastern Conference with sixth-ranked
But Harrick always has been a winner, whether it was Pepperdine, UCLA or Rhode Island. It appears his streak will remain intact at Georgia, which already has more victories than all of last season.
It's still early, of course, but there's no denying this is one of the most improved college basketball teams in the country. For the first time in school history, the Bulldogs (11-7, 4-1 SEC) posted back-to-back victories on the road against ranked teams, upsetting No. 19 Mississippi and No. 14 Florida.
Georgia moved into a tie for first by defeating undermanned Louisiana State 68-63 on Sunday. It wasn't pretty — the Bulldogs committed 10 turnovers before halftime and got a cumulative 6-of-21 shooting from their two best outside shooters, D.A. Layne and Ezra Williams.
But they persevered in the second half, committing just two turnovers and hitting 11 of 13 shots from inside the foul line.
worry about Lavne on the outside.
Louisiana State focused its defensive attention on Williams and Layne, freeing the Bulldogs to work inside to Evans, the 6-foot-7 center who equaled his season high with 21 points. Georgia is clearly a more versatile team than a year ago, when opponents only had to
worry about Layie on the outside. Still, Georgia is having trouble gaining recognition on a national level. The Bulldogs haven't been ranked in the Top 25 in more than three years and actually dropped a spot among the also-rans when the new poll came out Monday.
"We get no respect at all."
Williams said, undoubtedly aware that both Florida and Ole Miss were still in the Top 25.
While Georgia's overall record is not on par with the other ranked teams, it must be noted Harrick put his team through a brutal nonconference schedule.
The Bulldogs played No. 1 Stanford, No. 9 Wake Forest and No. 22 Fresno State, not to mention North Carolina State (ACC), California (Pac 10), Villanova (Big East), Utah (Mountain West) and Pepperdine (West Coast Conference). And only two of those games were played on Georgia's home court, Steglean Coliseum.
"You take a team on the road to learn how to play," Harris said. "It may be painful, but it helps you when adversity develops later on."
Commission challenges commercial sponsorship
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — After meeting on and off for more than a decade, frustrated members of a commission trying to reform college sports promised a last effort at trying to rid it of some commercialism.
A session of the Knight Commission focused yesterday on shoe company deals, multimillion-dollar TV contracts and gambling on college sports.
Sonny Vacarro, Adidas' executive director of sports, said everyone deserved some blame.
"The biggest sin you ever made was taking our money because you sold your souls," he told the college presidents on the panel.
Thomas K. Hearn, Jr., president of Wake Forest, said his fellow members — college presidents and business and sports leaders — understood "we have met the enemy, and it is us."
"But confessing sin is not going to do us much good unless we take steps to redeem ourselves, and it's the steps we are trying to figure out," he said.
Executives from CBS, ABC and ESPN painted a mostly rosy picture of television's influence.
"There's enormous pressure to recoup our investment, no doubt about it, but I think there are certain safeguards in place," said Mike Aresco, CBS Sports' senior vice president of programming.
Frank Fahrenkopf Jr., head of the American Gaming Association, told the commission that just 1 percent of the nation's estimated $380 billion annual gambling on sports is legal and it occurs in Nevada.
Up to a third of all the illegal and legal gambling is on college sports, said Fahrenkopf, a former chairman of the Republican National Committee during the Reagan administration. He said the Justice Department would have to work with the NCAA to resolve the problem.

WHERE ARE THEY NOW?
Cromwell a versatile Jayhawk
WHERE ARE THEY NOW?
WHERE ARE THEY NOW?
Name: Nolan Cromwell
Sports: Football, track
Years in Kansas: 1973-76
Hometown: Ransom
Accomplishments at Kansas: (Football) honorable mention All-American, 1975 Big Eight Offensive Player of the Year. (Track) AllAmerican, Big Eight champion in 400-meter hurdles (Kansas record).

Then: Nolan Cromwell put Ransom on the map after having standout careers in football and track at Kansas.
Cromwell: now coach with Seattle Seahawks
Cromwell started at safety his freshman year, including an appearance in the 1973 Liberty Bowl. After starting on defense for two years, Cromwell made the switch to quarterback and had instant success.
As a junior quarterback
in 1975, Cromwell rushed for 1,124 yards, the third highest in NCAA history at the time, and led the Jayhawks to the 1975 Sun Bow. He claims the Big Eight single game record for rushing yards by a quarterback with 294, he set in 1975. Cromwell also finished at Kansas with 1,664 rushing yards, a school record for a quarterback, and ninth on the all-time NCAA list.
On the track side, Cromwell's All-American recognition came after setting school records in the 400- and 600-yard runs, and the 400-meter hurdles.
Now: Cromwell joined the Seattle Seahawks
staff as wide receiver coach on Jan. 14, 1999.
Cromwell was drafted by the Los Angeles Rams in the second round of the 1977 NFL draft. He spent his 12-year NFL career in Los Angeles as a safety. He was named NFC Defensive Player of the Year in 1980, earned four Pro Bowl berths, and was a member of the Rams' Super Bowl XIV team in January 1980.
Cromwell began his coaching career in 1991 as a defensive and special teams assistant with the
Los Angeles Rams for coach John Robinson. Cromwell rained Mike Holmgren's staff in 1992 at Green Bay as the special teams coach. In 1988, he became wide receivers coach with the Packers, then followed Holmgren from Green Bay to Seattle when Holmgren became the Seahawks' coach in 1999.

Dominating defense key to Super Bowl
The Associated Press
TAMPA, Fla. — Dominating NFL defenses often attract cichy nicknames: Steel Curtain, No Name, Doomsday, Fearsome Foursome.
No one has figured out what to call the Baltimore Ravens' record-breaking unit, although coach Brian Billick thinks "best ever" might fit. After all, the Ravens rode it right into the Super Bowl.
"Call us the Swarming Bees, the Killer Bees," defensive end Michael McCray said. "We're like something you could put together on Playstation. Like when you were a kid growing up and you got all the best kids together and dominated other neighborhoods. Our defense is awesome. It's hard to believe the talent and speed and camaraderie."
"We've got 11 guys that play very well together." he said.
The Giants believe they have the same elements on the defensive side of the ball. Certainly defensive end Michael Strahan thinks so.
Strahan said the defense has built their confidence level and feel that no one can score on them.
Both teams are equipped with impressive credentials. The Ravens have allowed 16 points in three playoff games, and the Giants are coming off a shutout of Minnesota in the NFC championship game.
Both are big, fast and very good, and they follow formulas common to other great defenses.
Nick Buoniconti, a finalist for election to the Hall of Fame and longtime broadcaster for HBO's Inside the NFL, played for Miami's No Name squad, a team that sailed through the only undefeated season in history.
"The first thing it takes is teamwork," he said. "The linebackers, the defensive backs, the defensive linemen all knew each other's assignment. Everybody knew what everyone else was doing. There were no surprises. That makes a solid defense. Breakdowns are mental mistakes. That was the way our team was."
Buoniconti said the Dolphins were close, but not perfect.
After the Super Bowl, defensive coordinator Bill Arnsparger looked at film of the 17-0 season.
"He said we made 13 mental mistakes the entire year," Buoniconti said. "If we were beaten, we were beaten physical. That means volumes. You've got to be unselfish and disciplined.
"It takes great players to execute. You can't have freelancers. You have to eliminate mental mistakes."
Dallas coach Tom Landry christened the Dolphins' defense No Name, and Buoniconti still stilbies at it.
"We were not No Names," he said. "We were a cerebral team."
Perhaps the most dominating defensive player in NFL history was Hall of Famer Dick Butkus, now the director of football operations for the XFL, which begins play next month.
Butkus said there was nothing complicated about his approach.
"It takes desire to make the play within the context of the defense," he said. "It depends on the desire to get it done. If you apply that to offense, you could say the same thing.
"It's the desire to make two blocks instead of one. You tell yourself 'Don't get blocked, no matter what.' You need the desire to do your assignment and then you move out to help. They'll never have enough blockers that way."
Defense requires an aggressive mindset, butkus said.
“It’s me against you,” he said. “I don’t care if you’re bigger. There’s no zipper on your chest to measure your heart. Ray Nitschke, Tommy Nobis, Deacon Jones and Alex Karras had that desire. All the great ones have it. They’re the ones that rise above. Maybe they’re not the physical specimens, but they have the heart for it.
"Everybody takes care of their assignments. That's no big deal. But if I just take care of mine and I am satisfied, what if another guys let up? If you come to block me, if I defeat you, there's no one else left. Once I get by, I'm free to make the tackle.
"The mental part is when you line up, I'd say, 'I've got to make the tackle. I can't rely on someone else.' Never be complacent. If everybody blocks their man, it will be a standoff. The trick is to get two blocks."
Few dot-coms in Superbowl lineup
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — A year after a cast of dot-coms claimed nearly 40 percent of the commercials in TV's priciest program, CBS will have a more familiar lineup of advertisers on this Sunday's Super Bowl.
Well-known brands such as Volkswagen and Levis will be making their Super Bowl debuts beside Super Sunday veterans such as Anheuer-Busch Inc, Pepsi-Cola  Inc., Visa International and FedEx Corp.
Missing are 14 of last year's 17 dot-coms, some little-known startup such as Lifeminders.com, Computer.com, OnMoney.com and OurBeginning.com, who felt the Super Bowl exposure would help make them household names.
Business failures, a drubbing in the stock market and revised objectives — such as making a profit — kept many of them from coming back this year.
"It's a much more traditional list of advertisers," said CBS ad sales boss Joe Abruzzee. "People aren't going to have any trouble figuring out what every advertiser's business is."
Despite the flight of the doctoms and a weaker overall ad market, CBS insiders say the network managed to get an average of $2.3 million for the 60 half-minute ads in the game, up 4.5 percent from the record $2.2 million average ABC claimed a year ago.
That amounts to a staggering $76,667 per second.
The Super Bowl lets advertisers address the biggest TV audience of the year. Upwards of 120 million people tune in to watch at least part of the game. The audience ratings often triple those for top-rated regular series.
In addition, the Super Bowl telecast has become widely known as a showcase for advertising. Apple Computer Inc. made it an event for Madison Avenue with its stunning 1984 ad that introduced the Macintosh computer. Viewers have come to expect entertaining spots as well.
"It's still the No.1 media event on what is arguably America's most celebrated day," said Tim Spengler, head of national commercial buying at Initiative Media.
But a Super Bowl appearance can also raise expectations too high.
Scott McGraw, head of sports sales for CBS, said some car companies begged off this year, saying their ads couldn't withstand the scrutiny that Super Bowl ads met.
That left the door open for Volkswagen of America, based in Auburn Hills, Mich., to become the game's exclusive car advertiser in its Super Bowl debut.
A popular ad is no guarantee of business success. Take Pets.com Inc., which ran an ad during last year's Super Bowl that showed its sock-puppet mascot urging people in a song to stay home with their pets and buy their supplies online.
Sergio Zyman, a one-time top marketer for Coca-Cola Co., now runs his own consulting firm, said the ad doubled the number of people in his surveys who said they would buy from Pets.com. But the company went out of business in November. Zyman said the company failed to give prospective customers enough of a price break or other advantage to keep coming back
St. 'Louis-based Anheuser-Busch is the single biggest advertiser on the Super Bowl, with four minutes of ads for Budweiser and Bud Light. Its ads feature an everyman named Cedric, a mouse helping a Clydesdale and the music group 'N Sync.
Pepsi-Cola Co. has three Super Bowl minutes and plans to push its flagship brand with the theme "Joy of Pepsi" replacing the 2-year-old "Joy of Cola." Hallie Eisenberg, the young actress who channeled voices in past "Joy" ads, won't appear in the Super Bowl ads.
Levi Strauss & Co., the clothes maker from San Francisco, pitches a new line of jeans with an odd ad in which medics strip the pants from an unconscious donor and rush them via helicopter to a forlorn man elated to get the worm duds.
Electronic Data Systems Corp. the technology consultant from Plano, Texas, is back with a sequel to its "Cat Herders" ad. This time, people are running ahead of a stampede through a sleepy Spanish town — but the animals are squirrels, not bulls.
Three dot-coms are back from last year. Online broker Etrade Group Inc. is back for the second time, while the job sites Monster.com Inc. and HotJobs.com Inc. are making their third consecutive Super Bowl appearances.
But CBS says dot-coms collectively account for only about 10 percent of the 30 minutes of ingame ads this year.

KJHK listeners unsure about format shift
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
KJHK's addition of popular music to its rotation has some students and employees apprehensive.
The station's changes remind some people of similar changes made by the Lazer, KLZR 105.9 FM, which eventually played predominantly top 40 music.
Rachel Goens, Brookings, S.D., senior, said she worried that KJHK would go the same route.
"KJHK is really the only venue for music besides mainstream," she said. "I can understand why they did it, but I think a lot of people are going to be disappointed."
Phil Cauthon, KJHK graduate teaching assistant, acknowledged that a few people both within and outside the station were wary of the changes. Still, he insisted there was no reason for such a reaction because the bulk of the station's music would remain the same.
"That's why she really not very many people opposed to what we're doing," he said.
That's why they're ready for very many people opposed to what we're doing," he said. Lisa Altenhofen, Chapman junior, said she would tune in more often if the station found a balance of popular and lesser-known music, a balance she thought the Lazer once had.
"If what they're planning on doing is picking up where the Lazer left off, that would probably get me listening," she said.
Chris Eckert, Topeka senior and KJHK disc jockey since 1998, thought internal conflict at the station was minimal.
"There's been some level of people grumbling." Eckert said. "But nothing catastrophic."

Students run for city office
By Erin Adamson
Kansan staff writer
Two of 12 Lawrence City Commission candidates are also students at the University of Kansas.
Jeni Chaffee and Brett Logan both said they had a new perspective to offer city government.
Logan, Olathe graduate student in education, said students should become more involved in the heated debate about a possible housing ordinance that would limit the number of unrelated people living together from four to two.
"The main issue affecting students is the single housing ordinance." he said.
Chaffee, Lawrence senior in political science, said the commission, which she thought was pretty homogeneous, should reflect the diversity of the Lawrence community.
"I hope we could address issues that aren't usually addressed," she said. "In this town, a lot of people don't make much money."
Chaffee she wanted to tackle the issues most important to people in Lawrence.
"I really believe in the role of a public servant as a delegate," she said.
She also said Lawrence government was user-friendly.
"It's more available than people know," Chaffee said. "The city offices are really good about trying to help out."
Both students and Lawrence residents needed to be more active in government, she said.
"People are down on the man." Chaffee said. "but we are the man."
Part of running for office the right way, she said, was not taking campaign money she did not absolutely need.
People are discouraged by the government
"I made all the signs," she said.
because of the power money had over the political process. Chaffee said. This is one reason she said she was running a grassroots campaign.
She said that she also filled out an avidavit declaring she would spend less than $500 for her campaign, but she plans to spend less than $150.
Logan, who has lived
In Lawrence since 1996 when he began his undergraduate studies, said the commission needed to represent the student population.
Logan said he encouraged high-tech businesses in Lawrence and thought the technology industry would create jobs for students and keep Lawrence residents from seeking employment elsewhere.
"It seems strange that Lawrence has a high-
quality University but no high-tech indus
"I don't feel that university students are represented at the city-wide level," he said. "There needs to be a direct voice on the commission."
try." Logan said.
He said one challenge the candidates would face was getting students to vote for commissioners, who make many local decisions that affect students. Therefore, he plans to reach students at an information table in the Kansas Union.
"I think if they see the impact of having a student on the commission, that will make them want to vote." Logan said. "After this current presidential election cycle, where every vote did count, students might realize they should vote."
The commission seats of David Dunfield, Erv Hodges and Marty Kennedy, who are all running for re-election.
are the three spots opening this year. The two candidates who receive the most votes are elected to 4-year terms, and the candidate who comes in third serves a 2-year term.
City commissioners work part time, 20 or more hours a week, and earn $3,000 a year. The mayor is paid $10,000. Primaries will be in February and the final elections in April.

Amy Hart's immune system was down as she went to exercise. Although she was sick, she pushed herself in her workout.
As a result, though, the Overland Park senior became even more sick.
According to Lawrence Magee, physician at Watkins Memorial Health Center, people should not exercise when they are feeling under the weather.
"If you are running a high fever accompanied by body aches or shortness of breath, you should not exercise," she said. "Those who have a cold or minor upset stomach can still maintain an exercise routine, but should reduce their endurance level."
Paul Sandburg, personal trainer at Sixth Street Fitness, 2500 W. 6th St., said exercising while ill can make a person sick for a longer period of time.
"Usually a person who has a high fever or the chills should not exercise because it makes your immune system weaker to fight off the illness," he said.
Matt Rehder, Lawrence senior, said exercising when he has a cold helped him feel a little better.
WORKOUT PRECAUTIONS
Drink plenty of fluids
- Decrease workout routine by 15 to 75 percent
While a workout may alleviate cold symptoms temporarily, Sandburg said that it does not help in the long run.
Source: Lawrence Magee, physician at Watkins Health Center
"It helps clear my immune system and I often feel less congested after a workout," he said.
"Exercising when you are sick does not improve your immune system or cure your cold." he said.
Stephanie Call, Great Bend junior, said she also consistently maintained a workout even if she does not feel up to par.
"I will often decrease my workout time and make sure that I drink a lot of fluids if I do not feel well," she said.
People who do choose to work out when sick should keep some things in mind. Magee said.
"One should hydrate themselves and not exert as much effort into their work-out as they normally would," she said.

Student reports battery by magazine solicitor
A female University of Kansas student reported that she was sexually battered in Gertrude Sellars Pearson-Corbin Hall yesterday by a magazine solicitor, the KU Public Safety Office said.
Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office said the suspect, who was not a student, was located and questioned yesterday evening, but the female student did not want to press charges.
The man then left the room, according to a crime alert posted by the KU Public Safety Office yesterday.
The student said she allowed the male solicitor into her room at 2:30 p.m. and, after soliciting for sales, the man hugged her, kissed her lips and touched her breast.
Mailen said he wanted to remind students that no solicitors were allowed in the residence halls. Students should notify housing staff or the Public Safety Office if they see solicitors in the building, he said.

Last Texas fugitives arrested in Colorado
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — The last two of seven convicts who escaped from a Texas prison in December surrendered peacefully to police Tuesday morning.
Their arrests brought to an end a multistate hunt for the seven heavily armed convicts who bluffed their way out of prison Dec. 13.
Fugitives Patrick Murphy Jr., a 39-year-old rapist, and Donald Newbury, a 38-year-old convicted robber, surrendered peacefully at a hotel after several hours of negotiations with police and after making statements by telephone on a local television station.
Four other inmates had been arrested peacefully Monday in nearby Woodland Park, and a fifth killed himself as authorities closed in.
AOL Time Warner cuts 1,000 music positions
NEW YORK — Less than a week after a major revamp at CNN, newly formed media giant AOL Time Warner is shaking up the entire organization in a move that will result in at least 1,000 more jobs being lost, sources said.
the cuts, announced Tuesday, are affecting the company's music business, its America Online division and its movie studio New Line Cinema, according to several sources who spoke on condition of anonymity. The cuts are part of an overall belt-tightening drive to make good on a promise to investors that the merger would deliver a major boost to earnings.
California still searching to solve energy crises
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — California is "burning through" money about as fast as it is consuming electricity, putting added pressure on the state to quickly find a solution to the energy crisis.
President George W. Bush extended an emergency order keeping power flowing to California for two weeks but said it wouldn't be extended again. State officials noted Tuesday that in just five days they have spent more than a quarter of a $400 million emergency fund. Another Stage 3 power alert was issued for all of California until midnight Wednesday. The alert, which means the state's power reserves have fallen to about 1.5 percent and rolling blackouts are a strong possibility, has been issued every day for more than a week.

Hall of Famer takes step toward recovery
WASHINGTON — Just after President George W. Bush was inaugurated, a man without any security clearance bypassed three security checkpoints and shook Bush's hand — an escapade he pulled at President Bill Clinton's second inauguration, authorities said.
The man's success at gaining access to the president started Secret Service agents and U.S. Capitol Police officers because security was intensified in preparation for large groups of protesters.

Fee may help to light campus
By Brooke Hesler
Students will see more lights around campus if Student Senate approves a campus safety fee next week that would replace the current campus lighting fee, which is set to expire at the end of the semester.
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Last night, the Senate Finance and Student Rights committees approved the bill, which would continue the current $2 fee. Adam Obley, Campus Safety Advisory Board member and co-sponsor of the bill, said the continuation was necessary. He said if a replacement fee wasn't established, the impact of the board would be drastically minimized.
"Students will pay for safety one way or another." Obley, a Topeka sophomore, said. "Either we can pass this fee or the administration will build it into our tuition, and we'll have no say in it."
The fee would require students to continue to pay $2 per semester. It would be lowered to $1 per semester in 2004.
Nooshi Soltani, Campus Safety Advisory Board chairwoman and co-sponsor of the bill, said the University would match funds paid by students by at least 50 percent.
She said money from the fee would go toward completing $132,000 worth of proposed lighting projects. After that, Soltani said that the money could go toward more emergency phones on campus, an expansion of SafeRide, more fire alarms in
campus buildings and housing, key cards for residence halls and SafeWalk, a service where students could call for an escort to walk with them.
D. J. Schultz, a Nunemaker senator representing freshmen and sophomores, said the bill was too vague and that it was the University's responsibility to pay for student safety.
"It should be a University fee, not a student fee," he said. "It shows a lack of backbone by the senators. They should be approaching the administration about this. You can't say, 'Hey come to KU and pay for your own safety.'"
If full Senate passes the bill Wednesday, the fee would come up for review every three years. It would require a two-thirds majority vote by both Senate Committees and Senate to do away with it. In other business:
The Finance Committee approved a bill establishing criteria for allocating money from the reserve account, which holds money that had been allocated to student groups by Senate but had not been spent. Its balance is $428,000.
■ The University Affairs and Finance committees approved a bill to allocate $302 to the Swallowing Metis, an online student newspaper.
The University Affairs and Finance committees approved a bill to grant $1,150 to the Engineering Expo 2001.
The Student Rights and University Affairs com mittees approved a bill amending the code of student rights and responsibilities, entitleing organizations to a hearing when they violate rules.

KJHK tweaks format to increase audience
By Sarah Smarsh writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
KJHK listeners will soon notice change on the airwaves.
The station, 90.7 FM, modified its programming plans for the spring 2001 semester. The changes affect the type of music KJH plays, as well as the manner in which the music is presented.
Three of about 12 songs played per hour will now be from "more recognizable" acts, said Phil Cauthon, KJHK graduate teaching assistant and one of the orchestrators of the modifications. Cauthon said another three songs per hour would come from lesser-known artists, and the rest of the hour would be filled with music of the disc jockey's choice.
The station has traditionally played predominantly underground musicians or "indie bands."
"All the research says that a majority of students don't know KJHK's call numbers." Cauthon said.
Cauthon said the station would maintain its role as "the sound alternative," but research conducted by a class last spring revealed a narrow audience and the need for change.
He said part of the station's mission was to serve an audience including the bulk of University of Kansas students and the Lawrence community.
"We're basically playing it because we know it's what people want," he said.
Cauthon cited Radiohead and P.J. Harvey as examples of music acts that would be included in the new rotation.
"It's not gonna be Britney Spears," Cauthon said. "You're never going to hear that on KJHK."
Gary Hawke. KJJK general manager, emphasized the changes would not alter KJJK's college rock atmosphere.
"It's not a format change," Hawke said. "What we've done is tweak our existing format."
Chris Eckert, Topea senior, has worked as a KJHK DJ since the fall of 1998. Eckert said the change wasn't a big deal.
"Essentially, what we're trying to do is let people who don't listen to KJ on a
regular basis know that we play music they've heard of," he said.
Lisa Attenhofen, Chapman junior,
said she welcomed the changes.
"I think if this is worked into the station subtly and not in an overpowering way, it would be a good thing," Chapman said. "It would cause them to get more listeners."
Cauthon said the new rotation would be at full force by spring, once the station fixed computer problems and recognizable artists issued new releases after the post-Christmas lull.
7 06 k j h x
The station has made other changes to build a larger audience. Caution said employees would build a relationship with listeners through community service and
better promotions
Caution said the biggest goal was to improve the station's coherence with improved professionalism among DJs and better flow between programs.
"We tried to lump special programming together so there's minimal audio whiplash," Cauton said. "Motown Stax,' a soul music program, will glide into 'Can You Dig it?', a funk program, which will move into the hip hop program 'One.'
"It'll be that soundtrack to people's lives — that isn't a schizophrenic soundtrack."
KJHK program director Emily Cowles, Overland Park senior, said a completely smooth flow from one program to the next was impossible on such an eclectic station.
"I think people know there are so many special programs and such a variety of music they play that they're not going to be completely shocked when they hear something different." Cowles said.
Cauthon agreed the music's variety should remain paramount.
"One of the best things about college radio is that you get it all," Cauthon said.

Station's changes not drastic
Continued from page 1A
KJHK program director, is among the station's most experienced DJs. She said the changes were justifiable and in the station's best interest.
"The main goal of any radio station is to get more listeners, and that's what we're trying to do." Cowles said.
Increasing audience size is a vital goal for the station, which learned from a survey last spring many students were not satisfied with the station's music or presentation.
"The KJHK board is concerned that KJHK is neglecting its audience by not responding adequately to these problems." Caution said. "This semester we've taken the first steps toward remedying these shortcomings."
The KJHK board mandates funding for the station from the School of Journalism — funding that amounted to $60,000 for the 2002 fiscal year.
As for charges that current program changes could mean the beginning of more serious changes, Eckert disagreed.
"I haven't seen anything to indicate that that's the intention of Phil or Gary (Hawke, general manager)." Eckert said.
Ty Haas, Olathe senior and KJHK music director, said the controversy stemmed from the station's difficult mission of catering to a diverse campus and community.
"We're trying to take what everybody likes and lump it all into one station," Haas said. "That's always going to be hard."
But Haas hopes listeners will remain loyal.
"I want students to love us as much as we love it," Haas said.

The University of Kansas will get a $2.26 million improvement starting next fall.
Building repairs planned
By Cássio Furtado
writer@kansan.co
Kansan staff writer
The money will be used to make fire code and electrical augmentations to several buildings, upgrading campus lighting and the campus power plant, and making street repairs.
The Board of Regents allocated $8 million to the six Regents universities for fiscal year 2002. The University of Kansas will receive $2,257,600.
James Modig, design and construction management director, said the University had prioritized some projects, such as fire code improvements in Burt, Dyche and Nichols halls, the Hall Center for the Humanities and Watson Library, and electrical improvements to Summerfield Hall.
The University will also improve its power plant, allowing it to run on both natural gas and fuel oil. The power plant currently runs on natural gas.
Modig said the city asked the University to add another source of fuel to its plant due to possible shortages of natural gas during harsh winters.
Construction on Memorial Drive is scheduled for the summer of 2002. Modig said the University would concentrate on the portion of the street west of the Campanile.
The money allocated by the Regents is proportionate to the size of each institution. The University has 5,532,785 square feet, or 28.22 percent of the total area of the six Regents' institu-

the Kansas Board of Regents allocated $8 million to state universities for 2002. The University of Kansas receives $2,257,600. Here is a list of some ways the University plans to spend the money.

tions, so it will receive 28.22 percent of the $8 million.
"We have a lot of facilities deteriorating." Modig said.
Modig said even though this was a fair way to allocate money, the amount the University would receive was not enough.
Modig said if any emergency situations came up during the academic year, the University would reallocate funds from one of the planned improvements.
Douglas Riat, facilities operations director, said prioritizing improvements would help with this decision.
"But they're all pretty necessary," Riat said. "We have lots of projects that still need funding."

Matt Zemler is satisfied with his roommate in Ellsworth Hall, but life wasn't always that way.
Zemler, Shawnee sophomore, came to the University of Kansas last spring and had to deal with what he described as "a lousy roommate match" in McCollum Hall.
"We just couldn't get along at all," Zemler said. "He would smoke and listen to rap music all day long, and I avoided going to my room as much as possible. My grades suffered because of it."
Zemler did not fill out the standard questionnaire the department of student housing includes in its on-campus housing application.
The current application asks potential residents about smoking preferences and whether visitors of the opposite sex would bother them. Had Zemler answered the questions, he might have been spared the
smoking problem.
However, Zemler said a more substantive personality questionnaire was fundamental for the student housing roommate matching process.
"They don't need to do anything in-depth, just a test or questionnaire that tells you some things about the person," he said.
Megan Haas, Wichita freshman, said she didn't have roommate problems but agreed a more in-depth survey was necessary.
"My roommate and I became friends and are thinking of living together again next year," she said. "But because it worked out for me it doesn't mean it works for everyone."
But Ken Stoner, director of student housing, said no survey or personality test could guarantee two people would like each other.
"We're just doing the very basic match things, such as smoking or non-smoking." Stoner said. "It just comes down to the individuals who live together."

KJHK tweaks format to increase audience
By Sarah Smarsh

Kansan staff writer
KJHK listeners will soon notice changes on the airwaves.
The station, 90.7 FM, modified its programming plans for the spring 2001 semester. The changes affect the type of music KJHK plays, as well as the manner in which the music is presented.
Three of about 12 songs played per hour will now be from "more recognizable" acts, said Phil Cauthon, KJHK graduate teaching assistant and one of the orchestrators of the modifications. Cauthon said another three songs per hour would come from lesser-known artists, and the rest of the hour would be filled with music of the disc jockey's choice.
The station has traditionally played predominantly underground musicians or "indie bands."
Cauthon said the station would maintain its role as "the sound alterna-," but research conducted by a class last spring revealed a narrow audience and the need for change.
"All the research says that a majority of students don't know KJHK's call numbers." Cauthon said.
He said part of the station's mission was to serve an audience including the bulk of University of Kansas students and the Lawrence community.
"We're basically playing it because we know it's what people want," he said.
Cauthon cited Radiohead and P.J. Harvey as examples of music acts that would be included in the new rotation.
"It's not gonna be Britney Spears," Cauthon said. "You're never going to hear that on KJHK."
Gary Hawke, KJHK general manager, emphasized the changes would not alter KJHK's college rock atmosphere.
"It's not a format change," Hawke said. "What we've done is tweak our existing format."
Chris Eckert, Topea senior, has worked as a KJHK DJ since the fall of 1998. Eckert said the change wasn't a big deal.
"Essentially, what we're trying to do is let people who don't listen to KJ on
regular basis know that we play music they've heard of," he said.
Lisa Altenhofen, Chapman junior, said she welcomed the changes.
"I think if this is worked into the station subtly and not in an overpowering way, it would be a good thing," Chapman said. "It would cause them to get more listeners."
Cauthon said the new rotation would be at full force by spring, once the station fixed computer problems and recognizable artists issued new releases after the post-Christmas lull.

The station has made other changes to build a larger audience. Caution said employees would build a relationship with listeners through community service and
better promotions.
Cauthon said the biggest goal was to improve the station's coherence with improved professionalism among DJs and better flow between programs.
"We tried to lump special programming together so there's minimal audio whiplash." Cauton said. "Motown Stax,' a soul music program, will glide into 'Can You Dig It?', a funk program, which will move into the hip hop program 'One.'
"It'll be that soundtrack to people's lives — that isn't a schizophrenic soundtrack."
KJHK program director Emily Cowles, Overland Park senior, said a completely smooth flow from one program to the next was impossible on such an eclectic station.
"I think people know there are so many special programs and such a variety of music they play that they're not going to be completely shocked when they hear something different," Cowles said.
Caution agreed the music's variety should remain paramount.
"One of the best things about college radio is that you get it all," Cauthon said.

Station's changes not drastic
Continued from page 1A
KJHK program director, is among the station's most experienced DJs. She said the changes were justifiable and in the station's best interest.
"The main goal of any radio station is to get more listeners, and that's what we're trying to do." Cowles said.
Increasing audience size is a vital goal for the station, which learned from a survey last spring many students were not satisfied with the station's music or presentation.
"The KJHK board is concerned that KJHK is neglecting its audience by not responding adequately to these problems." Caution said. "This semester we've taken the first steps toward remedying these shortcomings."
The KJHK board mandates funding for the station from the School of Journalism — funding that amounted to $80,000 for the 2002 fiscal year.
"I haven't seen anything to indicate that that's the intention of Phil or Gary (Hawke, general manager)." Eckert said.
As for charges that current program changes could mean the beginning of more serious changes, Eckert disagreed.
Ty Haas, Olathe senior and KJH music director, said the controversy stemmed from the station's difficult mission of catering to a diverse campus and community.
"We're trying to take what everybody likes and lump it all into one room," Haas said. "That's always going to be hard."
But Haas hopes listeners will remain loyal.
"I want students to love us as much as we love it," Haas said.

The University of Kansas will get a $2.26 million improvement starting next fall.
Building repairs planned
The money will be used to make fire code and electrical augmentations to several buildings, upgrading campus lighting and the campus power plant, and making street repairs.

The Board of Regents allocated $8 million to the six Regents universities for fiscal year 2002. The University of Kansas will receive $2,257,600.
James Modig, design and construction management director, said the University had prioritized some projects, such as fire code improvements in Burt, Dyche and Nichols halls, the Hall Center for the Humanities and Watson Library, and electrical improvements to Summerfield Hall.
The University will also improve its power plant, allowing it to run on both natural gas and fuel oil. The power plant currently runs on natural gas.
Modig said the city asked the University to add another source of fuel to its plant due to possible shortages of natural gas during harsh winters.
Construction on Memorial Drive is scheduled for the summer of 2002. Modig said the University would concentrate on the portion of the street west of the Campanile.
The money allocated by the Regents is proportionate to the size of each institution. The University has 5,532,785 square feet, or 28.22 percent of the total area of the six Regents' institutions, so it will receive 28.22 percent of the $8 million.
Kansas Board of Regents repair fund
The Kansas Board of Regents allocated $8 million to state universities for 2002. The University of Kansas receives $2,257,600. Here is a list of some ways the University plans to spend the money.
Fire code improvements $409,000
Electrical improvements $112,000
Street improvements $178,000
Power plant improvements $100,000
Campus lighting Improvements $100,000

Modig said even though this was a fair way to allocate money, the amount the University would receive was not enough.
"We have a lot of facilities deteriorating," Modig said.
Modig said if any emergency situations came up during the academic year, the University would reallocate funds from one of the planned improvements.
Douglas Riat, facilities operations director, said prioritizing improvements would help with this decision.
"But they're all pretty necessary," Riat said. "We have lots of projects that still need funding."

Perspective Voting process merits debate, needs reform
The Electoral College was one of the most heavily criticized aspects of the 2000 election for allowing George W. Bush to become president despite losing the popular vote. Critics have branded the College an anachronism that hinders the fullest realization of democratic ideals.
One issue is the validity of an election system where 537 votes for Bush in Florida outweighed more than 500,000 votes for Gore nationally in deciding the presidency. Defenders of the College believe that electing a president through individual state contests preserves federalism and ensures that candidates address issues relevant to each state. Furthermore, supporters maintain that the College makes small states integral participants in the election, thereby avoiding a disproportionate concentration of voting influence in densely populated
ence in densely populated areas.
Opponents of the College, however, believe there is no truer expression of the will of the people than a direct election, where, in theory, one voice equals one vote. Critics also allege that the Electoral College discourages voter participation; in states such as Kansas where one party has a considerable stronghold, supporters of minority parties have little motive

parties have to make the in-
tention to go to the polls because, in the winnere-take all system, their votes do not influence the distribution of electoral votes.
Moreover, the College discourages third parties. Voters often are influenced to not "waste" votes for third parties because the chances are small that a third party could seriously challenge the Republicans and Democrats for electoral votes. Thus, in the Electoral College system, third parties become "spoilers," often attracting enough votes from one party to give the other a plurality.
Others criticize how the College allows a president to be elected without a majority of the vote. Bill Clinton was elected twice without a majority (43 percent in 1992 and 49 percent in 1996). "ColorLines" editor Bob Wing branded the Electoral College a "pillar of racism" for making it difficult for minorities to express their will at the polls. He cited the results of the 2000 election: Although 53 percent of the nation's African Americans live in the South and voted 90 percent Democratic, white Republicans out-voted them in every Southern state, essentially negating the African-American vote and sending all southern electoral votes to Bush.
Despite the many arguments against the College, few believe that it will be abolished. Nevertheless, the 2000 election debacle demands election reform. During his campaign, Green candidate Ralph Nader suggested several reforms that would improve the system
- Instant-runoff voting. Voters would rank the candidates according to preference, and each voter's top choice would be tabulated. If no candidate receives a majority, the candidate receiving the fewest votes is eliminated, and the ballots are counted again. Each voter's top choice is again registered; if the top choice was eliminated, a vote is registered for the voter's second choice, and so on. This process would require a candidate to receive a majority of votes to be elected. It also would prevent third parties from being "spoilers."
A binding none of the above option. If a majority of voters select "none of the above," a fresh slate of candidates is introduced. Under the Electoral College system, voters who find the candidates unsuitable often feel compelled to vote for the lesser of two evils or a write-in candidate. Or they may abstain from voting altogether, actions that belie their disapprobation. With "none of the above," voters can cast a vote that clearly expresses their opinion.
Although Election 2000 has finally reached a close, public debate about the Electoral College and election reform has just begun. The KU Green Party is hosting a public forum on the College from 7 to 9 p.m. today at the Lawrence Public Library. A panel of guest speakers will discuss the College's benefits and detriments, and the audience then can ask questions and interact with the panelists.
Election 2000 exposed the weaknesses of the American election system. Now, we must assume an active role in encouraging reform.

Guys shouldn't be afraid to shed tears sometimes
When was the last time you cried?
When was the last time you cried?
I bring up this question after watching the movie All the Pretty Horses.
During the movie, I felt tears welling up in my eyes several times. Like any red-blooded male, I held them back to keep my manly reputation.
After doing my best not to cry, I wondered when the last time was that I let the water-works go. It was more than three years ago, during my junior year in high school, back when the Spice Girls
were popular and I wanted to go to the University of Missouri. Three years is a long time to go without crying.
P.
But there were moments during that time I wanted tears to fly. I have wanted to shed tears of sadness and pain while watching the Lei Garrett Behind the Music special on VH1 and when I found out Britney Spears was dating uber-

teen-dork Justin Timberlake. I also wanted to shed tears of happiness when we beat Mizzou in football this year and when I left home for the first time to come to KU. For some reason greater than I will ever know, I held the tears back and remained stoic.
Back to the movie, though. I tortured myself for days wondering why I hadn't cried for such a long time, and I came up with several thoughts. Crying is the most powerful way to show emotion. The simple act of a tear falling out of one's eye evokes flattery, controversy, sadness, madness, happiness and hate. It can mean many things but is always an outburst of emotion.
But what it all comes down to is image
During the course of mankind, crying has become associated with being sensitive and feminine. Men avoid being associated with those two words as much as Calista Flockhart shuns solid food. It is strictly taboo. Being sensitive means coming off as soft and without masculinity, and we all know men are not supposed to be soft or feminine. There are times when it is OK to cry. When athletes retire or win a championship, more than a few of them shed tears. Still, men can be seen as cowards if they succumb to the tears.
Either way, a contemporary male in today's society risks ridicule and shame with the shedding of tears. Keeping emotions bottled up has been proven to have medical setbacks, too,guys. One of the reasons men do not live as long as women is because men keep emotions and stress bottled up inside.
So on that note, I have a bold and cutting edge New Year's resolution unlike any other, and I encourage everyone to go along with me.
Lots of people say they will quit smoking (yeah, right), quit drinking (fat chance) and lose weight (even fatter chance). Me, I vow to cry whenever I feel like it and be a more caring and gentle human being (hey, ladies).
Now if you don't mind, I'm going to curl up with a box of tissues and a cup of hot chocolate and watch Steel Magnolias. Actually, I'm going to watch Girls of Spring Break with the boys and knock back a few. I'll start observing that resolution tomorrow.
Instead of being ashamed to cry, I am going to cry when I feel even the slightest emotion, and I will wear the tear like a badge of honor of my newfound confidence and realization of my inner self.

Editorial
Senators, students must meet
Student senators and students share obligation to communicate.
Student Senate and the student body are often perceived as two
Student Senate and the student body are often perceived as two separate entities. Most students don't know much about Senate in general, let alone what it can do for them. This week is Student Senate Outreach Week, where Senate is attempting to inform students about its organization. But more can be done as far as Senate outreach, and in turn, students can do more to be involved in student government.
Current Senate requirements include attending Senate meetings and two office hours per week. Last semester, a bill failed that would have required senators to attend two meetings per month that involve their constituencies, which would be an addition to existing requirements. The bill is being revised to require student senators to attend one constituent meeting.
This bill is a good idea in premise, but it is largely symbolic. It is unlikely that having a senator attend an outside group meeting will benefit that group in any significant manner. There are avenues for students who wish to have their concerns addressed by Senate, but the average student does not realize that processes, such as Senate office hours, exist.
The beginning of the semester is an ideal time for senators to attend several group meetings to inform their constituency of what Senate can offer. Once the students know, then the responsibility is theirs. A more aggressive educational outreach at the beginning of each semester would be the best way to allow students better access to their senators without overburdening senators with measures that would be only symbolic.
It is important for Senate to be available to the people that it represents, but students also need to be aware of who represents them and how. If both Senate and the student body take steps to strengthen their relationship, Senate can be more representative of the University than it is today. This is not only the responsibility of Senate, but also the responsibility of students.

Intramurals offer a wide range of activities
By Steve Laurenzo
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
Some people don't like to share and others detest working in groups. Still others excel when they can take on a challenge alone.
Students who fall into any of these categories are in luck — the spring intramural season offers more than just team sports.
Pool, wrestling, golf, racquetball and bench press competitions will begin soon. Non-athletic events later in the semester include a NCAA Final Four prediction contest and a design competition for new intramural champion T-shirts.
The single-elimination 9-ball pool tournament, which takes place at the Jaybowl, is open for entries until Wednesday, Feb. 7.
Racquetball doubles entries open Monday, Feb. 5.
As the semester wears on, other activity entry dates will be provided.
But for now, here's a summary of what's to come.
Wrestling, last year's most popular individual event, is a great way to relieve stress in a one-on-one physical battle. Be advised, though, because wrestlers are required to attend a weighin/safety clinic in order to participate. Those not in attendance must forfeit their matches.
"I mainly do it for the exercise," said Jared Buchbaum, Plymouth, Mich., junior. He has wristled the last two years and likes the laid back attitude of the participants.
"There's no one coming out there in singlets," he said. "Just a bunch of guys in shorts and T-
shirts having fun."
Other sports are also available. Weight-lifting students can compete against others in the field in the bench press. Intramural bench press allows for competition among people of various strengths. Students' classifications are determined by recreation services.
"We use a percent of body weight formula," said Jason Krone, assistant director of recreation services. "There are no weight classifications. Whatever you lift is put into a formula based on your body weight."
In other words, he or she who lifts the most in relation to his or her weight wins the glory and the T-shirt.
Warm weather brings a two-club golf tournament for all those hackers on campus. Players are
allowed two clubs of their choice with which they will stroll the fairways and possibly scour the woods.
The other pairs competition is doubles tennis. Both doubles tennis and raquetball offer men's, women's and mixed divisions. Racquet sports players can enjoy raquetball inside Robinson Center while it's cold and tennis outside Robinson as the weather improves.
Wrestling is $5 per person, and pool and golf have associated costs yet to be announced. The other three activities are free to students.
The NCAA Final Four pick-em category is free. Twenty contestants battled for bragging rights and a T-shirt last year. Similar, if not higher participation, is expected this year.
However, the T-shirt design contest, also free, needs a little help. With only three entries, last year's field was narrow.
Krone said he hoped to see an increased interest in this competition by encouraging not just intramural sports fans, but also art and design students to participate.
Entries must contain a small graphic for the chest, and a larger design for the back. Among the specifications for the design are the inclusion of the names of the activities offered and the year. Full fact sheets are available through recreation services.
Final dates for entries in all activities and registration information are available through recreation services at 208 Robinson.

After extending one of the most incredible streaks in Kansas basketball Monday, the men's team will embark on another this Saturday and no Jayhawk is more excited about it than junior reserve Brett Ballard.
"I've always kind of hated K-State," Ballard said. "I've always been a KU fan so I'm definitely looking forward to playing them."
Though he's never played in a Kansas vs. Kansas State game
before, Ballard is well aware of the series' tradition. Kansas leads the all-time series 158-88, and the Wildcats' last victory against Kansas came on January 17, 1994, when Ballard was in eighth grade.
PETER SCHNEIDER
Williams: Hopes to continue win streak against K-State.
No. 4 Kansas (16-1, 5-0 Big 12 Conference) won its 23rd straight game against Colorado on Monday night and has defeated Kansas State (8-8, 2-3) in each of the last 19 meetings. The Jayhawks have also won the last 17 played in Manhattan.
The Jayhawks will play the Wildcats at 3 p.m. Saturday at Allen Fieldhouse and will try to keep the streak alive.
"I know the streak of beating them's gonna end sometime," Kansas coach Roy Williams said. "I know the streak of beating them over there is gonna end. I just try to put it off one more year each time we play them."
Ballard, a Hutchinson native, is one of four Kansans on the Jayhawk roster. Ballard's Hutchinson Community College teammate Chris Zerbe (Andover), and fellow juniors Lewis Harrison (Kansas City) and Todd Kappelmann (Augusta) are also from Kansas. Ballard will be making his first appearance as a participant in the Sunflower Showdown and said he anticipated a championship-type atmosphere when the 'Cats came to town.
"The (Allen Fieldhouse) atmosphere has been a lot crazier since the Big 12 season started and I'm sure it's going to be even more on Saturday," Ballard said. "There's a lot of students camping out already and I'm sure that the crowd's gonna be more electrified, especially considering this is the K-State game."
For Ballard, Kansas was a natural choice. A secondary-education major who hopes to go into coaching, he said Kansas and Williams provided the best opportunity for him to learn about the field.
More than 20 groups have already set up camp in the fieldhouse concourse for the game to show support for the Jayhawks.
"That was a huge factor in coming here," Ballard said. "I definitely want to coach. Coming here I knew I wasn't going to play a lot, but at the same time I knew I was going to be learning from a great coach. That was a bigger positive than going somewhere else."
Bullard will have an opportunity to learn from Williams at his finest on Saturday. Williams is 28-4 all-time coaching against K-State.
Sooners help 'Hawks continue losing trend
By Jessie Meyer sports@kansan.com Kansan sportwriter
The high hopes the Kansas women's basketball team had of turning this season around dwindled a little more last night after suffering its most treacherous loss of the season.
The Jayhawks (7-10, 1-5 Big 12 Conference) dropped their third-straight game last night, 88-64, to No. 12 Oklahoma in the Hawks' worst home loss this season.
"I don't think it can get any lower," senior forward Brooke Reves said. "I'm hoping this is the bottom of the barrel."
The loss is the team's ninth in its past 11 games, and drops the Jayhawks into a three-way tie with Kansas State and Oklahoma State for last place in the Big 12.
"This is not something that we're used to." Kansas coach Marian Washington said. "I personally have not been in this situation in a long time. It is frustrating."
Washington has not coached a team that ended with a losing record since the 1988-89 season and has not lost more than 10 games since the 1994-95 season when the 'Hawks lost 11.
"I'm not going to concede, but I have to be realistic," Washington said. "We're having to start over and it's hard to face it. It's real frustrating and it's real frustrating for our players."
Washington knew going into the game against Oklahoma (14-4 and 5-1) it would take one of the Jayhawks' best games to break out of their losing slump — a game Kansas didn't come close to playing.
The Sooners controlled the pace of the game from the opening tip, starting the game on a 12-0 run on their way to an early 23-4 lead. The Sooners never slowed down.
Kansas failed to make the easy buckets in the paint, shooting 34.8 percent from the field, and faltered from three-point range where the Jayhawks shot just 10 percent. With a lid on the Kansas basket, Oklahoma capitalized on a shell-shocked Jayhawk team, shooting 66 percent from the field and 85.7 percent from behind the arc.
"When you get wide open shots under the basket you have to take your time and knock those down and we didn't," Washington said. "I thought that really hurt us."
Once again, seniors Jennifer Jackson, Jaclyn Johnson and Reves were the only offensive threats for Kansas. The three veterans put up 46 points and shot 21-48 while their supporting cast shot just 3-21 from the field.
"With just Jac and Brooke and me scoring we're obviously not being that successful," Jackson said. "We've got to find some more people to score."
Washington said sooner or later more than three players were going to have to score if the Kansas women's basketball team was to be successful.
"We have the same three players that have been doing a good job for us," Washington said. "As much as we had hoped that (the junior college transfers) would be able to come right on in and maybe help us, they haven't been able to do it. Unfortunately we're having to depend on them. That's the tough thing
about that rebuilding year."
The lack of depth has left Reves, Jackson and Johnson searching for someone, anyone, to step up and help them play the rest of the season with the heart and determination the three seniors bring to the court.
"I think and at some point people have to care and step up and really play for Coach Washington," Reves said. "I can't take anything away from Oklahoma, they're a phenomenal team. We just have to focus on us at this point and get us together."
Jackson moved to fourth place on Kansas' all-time career-assists list with 339, passing Tamecka Dixon. Dixon had 337 assists from 1994-97.
Shooting does in Jayhawks
By Brandon Stinnett

Oklahoma did nothing to jeopardize its spot atop the Big 12 Conference scoring standings against Kansas last night.
Oklahoma was red-hot in every scoring category. The Sooners shot 66 percent from the field, 85.7 percent from behind the arc and 84.2 percent from the free-throw line.
The Sooners well-surpassed their 83.3 points per game scoring average on their way to a 88-64 decimation of the Jayhawks at Allen Fieldhouse.

Oklahoma (14-4, 5-1 Big 12 Conference) was coming off a 94-77 victory against North Carolina on Sunday in the Big 12/ACC Challenge. And the Sooners play at home against No. 9 Texas Tech on Saturday.
All that in a game Oklahoma coach Sherri Coale feared her team might have overlooked.
"It was a game I was worried about because it was sandwiched between two such high-profile games," Coale said.

Oklahoma hit the gate running in the first half, streaking out to a quick 24-3 lead.
Kansas (7-10, 1-5) battled back to within 10 later in the half, but the Jayhawks could never overcome Oklahoma's hot shooting.
But if the Sooners were looking past the Javahawks, they sure didn't show it.
Junior LaNeisha Caufield led the Sooners' offensive onslaught. The 5-foot-9 guard was 7-for-9 from the field and 6-for-6 from the line, and led all scorers with 20 points.
It was Caufield's second-straight 20-point game. She scored 23 against the Tar Heels on 11-of-18 shooting on Sunday, and said the key had been an increased reliance on her teammates.
"In the last two games we've learned to trust each other and make that extra pass," Caufield said. "I think more of our shots now are coming out of rhythm.
Everyone knows when to shoot."
Caufield wasn't the only Sooner with a hot hand last night. Junior Rosalind Ross was perfect from the field, knocking down all three of her shots, including two three-pointers.
Ross was coming off a 19-point outing against North Carolina, matching her career-high. She was 5-for-9 from behind the arc against the Tar Heels.
"My team has a lot of confidence in me now and I have a lot of confidence in myself," Ross said. "I feel that if I'm open I can shoot it regardless. They tell me to just keep on with my stroke and they're behind me whether I make it or miss it."
The Sooners would have scored even more points had they not turned the ball over 34 times. Coale said Oklahoma had struggled with turnovers in recent games, but tonight she didn't feel the problem was with the starting five.
"We've been somewhat plagued with turnovers, but our starting five wasn't too bad," Coale said. "When you look at all the people that we played and the amount of minutes that they had, you're going to have more than you ordinarily have. We had three or four walking calls on moves we've been able to make all year. I'm not concerned with those. It's the passes that go into the third row that I'm concerned with."
Caufield said the Sooners couldn't afford to give the ball away as much on Saturday against Texas Tech.
"We need to keep playing like we've been playing and cut down on the turnovers," Caufield said. "We need to just stay together as a team. I think our transition game is really working for us."

Controversial mascots stay heated topic on campuses
Have you ever seen the Kansas City Chiefs arrowhead logo in the Kansan? Probably not.
But controversies about the use of Native-American names and symbols as mascots or nicknames for athletic teams continue, and nowhere is it more fierce than in North Dakota.
Usually, out of deference to Native American groups, Chiefs stories are accompanied by a plain helmet with the word "Chiefs" on it. I remember seeing the arrowhead once maybe two semesters ago. Most of the time the arrowhead will not be there, and that's a Kansan editorial decision.
That's nice, you might say, but what does it have to do with me here in Kansas?
And although we heard nothing about it, there is an ongoing controversy in North Dakota about the use of the nickname "Fighting Sloux."
Well, something the Kansan Political Correctness Committee missed was that the first official visiting men's basketball team to Allen Fieldhouse this season was the North Dakota Fighting Sioux.
Two quick points:
First, many Native Americans live in the Dakotas.
Second, North Dakota is the defending NCAA hockey champion. The Fighting Sloux — oops, excuse me — North Dakota has won seven NCAA titles and finished second three times.
Hockey in North Dakota is so popular that the defending national champions are getting a new arena.
Alumnus Ralph Engelstad is personally paying for the $85 million new arena, to be named the Ralph Engelstad Arena. Engelstad is a former Fighting Sioux goaltender, a casino owner and real estate developer with a very full wallet.
And that is where we pick up the story.
Meanwhile, North Dakota University president Charles Kupchella said in e-mails to State Board of Higher Education members he was leaning towards eventually changing the name of the mascot and logo.
"I see no choice but to respect the request by Sioux tribes that we quit using their name," he wrote.
At this point, Engelstad, the rich builder, re-entered in support of the old nickname. Engelstad wrote Kupchella a letter that said if the nickname "Fighting Sioux" were dropped, he would halt construction of the arena.
"Please do not consider this letter a threat in any manner," Engelstad wrote. "As it is not intended to be. It is only notification to you of exactly what I am going to do if you change this logo and this slogan. It is a good thing that you are an educator, because you are a man of indecision, and if you were a businessman you would not succeed. You would be broke immediately."
The letter reached Kupchella on Dec. 20, the same day it was faxed to some of the members of the board.
On Dec. 21, the board voted 8-0 to retain the nickname "Fighting Sioux" and adopt the proposed logo — a Native American profile designed by a Native American. The profile has feathers and war paint.
As it stands now, North Dakota will get its $85 million arena and the other $15 million Engelstad promised. President Kupchella, undoubtedly bothered by having the nickname decision taken out of his hands, is left with that increasingly popular excuse, "It wasn't me."
I wouldn't blame him if he looked for a new job.
I certainly would.

Late-night
MUNCHIES,
no (know) where to go?
Illustration by Kyle Ramsey/KANSAN
YELLO SUB
624 W. 12th St.
10 a.m. to 12 p.m. Friday and Saturday
Although you might have to call it an early evening to catch a sandwich, Yello Sub's location makes it a great post-Crossing stop. If a sub has given you a second wind, hop next door to enjoy what's left of the evening.
The shop's namesake, The Yello Sub, is a concoction of ham, roast beef, turkey, Swiss cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomatoes, dijon mustard and mayonnaise.
Taste:4.8
Value: $3.80 for six inches
Comments:
Erinn — The eclectic choice of music creates a unique atmosphere, and the fun fish murals could keep a post-partier easily entertained while the food is being prepared, which can take longer than most sub shops. Depending on how much time a diner has been at the Crossing, recognizing your order as the jack of diamonds or another playing card, as Yello Sub does, could be a little confusing.
Meghan — Nothing better than a nice, hot sandwich piled high with meats. In a drunken state it would appear as sent straight from the god of drunken college students.
Nicole — All this maynaise can't be good for you. One of my personal faves for late-night munchies. And they deliver.
Reviews by Meghan Bainum, Erinn R. Barcomb and Nicole Roché
magine yourself in one of three scenarios. It's early on a weekend morning. Last call was at least a half-hour ago and as the bar's bouncer is about to throw you out,
you're trying to sneak a few olives and cherries from the bartender. Or maybe the people throwing the 8-keg party are ready to go to bed after watching you and your friends spill cup after cup of beer on their floor, which is now as sticky as fly paper. And they didn't even have snacks. Perhaps you've just been up late watching movies, hanging out or even studying.
outer way, chances are you're starving and wondering where you can find something to eat besides snagging a bag of Cheetos at the 24-hour convenience store. You could order a Gumby's "big ass" or some wings from Mojo's, or even go to Perkins for a huge stack of pancakes.
Three Kansan writers took a closer look at several late-night restaurant options unique to Lawrence and close to the action. They reviewed the restaurants for taste, nutrition and value on a scale of one to five, five being the best.
Wherever you decide to eat after a night of partying, remember to have a sober friend drive — or give the Saferide driver a huge tip.
BURRITO KING
900 Illinois St.
7 a.m. to 3 a.m. seven days a week
Located at the edge of the student ghetto, Burrito King is a convenient stop after a house party. Two drive-throughs and no inside seating makes a sober driver a must.
The Burrito King #1 is a Chipotle-sized burrito stuffed with rice, beans, lettuce, sour cream and a choice of chicken, beef or pork, with salsa on the side.
Erinn — I'd been warned about Burrito King, but I was pleasantly surprised. Can't image who could eat this at 7 a.m., though.
Meghan — Don't even attempt to eat while driving.
Double drive through also confusing.
Nicole — This thing is massive. Beware of the sauce.
WHEEL PIZZA COMPANY
Value: $3.20 for an enormous burrito
Taste: 3
Comments:
507 W.14th St.
5 p.m. to 2:30 a.m. Monday through Saturday
Formerly Pyramid Pizza, nothing much has changed about the Wheel Pizza Company. Located below the Wheel, it's the closest place to grab a late-night bite if you're at the Wheel, the Hawk, the Bull or just parting in the student ghetto.
After 10:30 p.m., the Wheel Pizza Company offers cheese, pepperoni and sausage pizza by the slice.
Value: $2 for a medium-sized slice
Taste: 4
Comments:
Erinn — Because it's standing room only, underage pizza eaters either have to eat at the counter and look at the party pictures or take a seat on the curb and watch other partners try and cross 14th Street after a few too many.
Meghan — What the pizza lacked in taste, it makes up its convenience.
Nicole — I liked the crust.
ROCKY'S
714 Vermont St.
10 a.m. to 3 a.m. Friday and Saturday
Because it's behind Massachusetts St., Rocky's is a little more out of the way from the bar scene than other eateries we tried. Rick's Place is about the closest bar. The atmosphere, however, might be worth the walk.
With plenty of places to sit, Rocky's offers a little more of the bar atmosphere with dance music, Golden Tee and three domestic beers on tap for those who haven't had enough yet.
The Steak Bomb is grilled steak, onions, peppers, mushrooms, American cheese and Genoa salami on soft bread.
Taste: 2.8
Value: $5.50 for a six-inch sandwich
Comments:
Erinn — Contrary to the TV commercials, it's not just the beautiful people who eat here. Although the sandwich wasn't that great, the workers were friendly and the menu selection is large enough to include almost everything from egg salad sandwiches to barbecued chicken kabobs.
Meghan — Guys working were really nice. Not the type to give you hell for being in the restaurant in an altered state
Nicole — Not for the onion/mushroom hater, like me. You would have to be intoxicated to eat this.

If you would just put a down payment on a house, you would be finding all kinds of messes on the walk-through. All of your worst fears would be coming true, but don't give up. Besides, the seller would be promising to fix everything. If anything like that happens, get it in writing.
Jagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 6.
You may feel like you've just opened a can of worms. You have some great ideas and some that won't work. Unfortunately, you can't tell which is which. Give what you've recently learned time to sink in. Don't believe everything you hear, either.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is a 5.
If somebody else wants a lot of your money, think it over carefully. Don't just blindly bet the ranch, even on something that looks like a good cause.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18] — Today is a 7. If you can stay organized, this day will go a lot better. Some of your plans will go like clockwork. Others will fall flat. Use your wit, as well as your wisdom, and you'll gain status, as well as approval.

Peace of mind is available, although it may take a while to get there. You keep second-guessing yourself. If you're not careful, you'll spend the whole day talking yourself around in circles. Plan a quiet evening. You'll need the rest by then.

I need your advice. I am sort of obsessed with my boyfriend's ex-girlfriend. I want to know everything about their previous relationship, the kind of person she is, etc.
SCorpion
Dear Shell.

haven't tried contacting her, but I have asked people about her.

At first, this was supposedly to get to know him better by learning about his previous preferences in women. It has changed into jeal.

ousy and I really think I hate her without ever meeting her. This is not healthy for the relationship at all. I know this. He and I have a really strong relationship and I want to marry him someday. But I don't know why I feel this way or how I can change. Thanks, Shell.
Jealous Julia
I once heard a saying: Being jealous is like drinking a poison and waiting for the other person to die. Jealousy only hurts you and is destructive to the relationships it affects.
Dear Julia,
Sometimes we tend to compare ourselves with our significant other's ex. I think it's
Love. Shell
natural to be curious and even ask a few questions, but only to a point. You've overstepped the curious part and walked right into obsession.
This exgirlfriend does not seem to be interfering with the relationship other than just being an ex of your boyfriend. The fact you're jealous shows you are insecure about yourself. Getting jealous about the ex is not going to help boost your confidence, but it will cause you to constantly compare yourself.
Be who you are. He's not with her. You've captured his attention. If you are going to marry him, you need to have complete trust in the fact that he loves you and you alone. No matter how cute, charming or awesome his ex was, you're better than any of those qualities put together.
I wouldn't even ask him about her anymore. Try to make that a goal. The more you focus on your relationship with him, instead of her, the happier you'll be. Good luck with your relationship. I hope this helps.

Survivor II could use some help
By Greg Zielinski
jayplay@kansan.com
jayplay columnist
Last year, American television was rocked by the surprising success of CBS's show "Survivor," inspiring other networks to foray into the world of reality-based programming (As if MTV's "Undressed" wasn't realistic enough).
Still, perhaps most surprising about the success of "Survivor" was this hit from the people who bring us "Nash Bridges" and "Diagnosis Murder." In fact, it was probably the same network executive who gave "Survivor" the go-ahead who also said, "Sure, why not let Chuck Norris sing his own theme song?" Mind boggling.
However, given this information it is only a matter of time before these "pioneers" at CBS are overtaken and outdone by the other, more talented networks. How, then, can "Survivor II" maintain its previous success? Here are a few suggestions:
Top Ten ways CBS can Improve the ratings of its hit show Survivor for the second season:
10 TOP TEN
10) Take "reality-based programming" to a new level, setting Survivor II in a disease infested leper colony
9) Out: rats and bugs, in:
"sexy singles" whoring themselves to seduce contestants and destroy relationships.
8) No more naked footage of Richard unless Richard is a hot, Swedish, female swimsuit model.
7) Improve ratings and save
money by sharing the set with Fox's "When Animals Attack IX."
6) Put all the Backstreet Boys on a deserted island to fend for themselves. Oh, right, I'm supposed to be talking about the show!
5) Make the torches losing contestants have to extinguish just like those hilarious re-lighting birthday candles.
4) Stop censoring violent footage, like the Immunity Challenge "Struggle for the Conch" where Piggy's brains get splattered on the rocks by Samanderic.
3) In order to compete with NBC's Must See TV Thursday, set Survivor II in a chic New York City coffee shop and include only wacky contestants named Ross, Rachel, Joey, Monica, Phoebe and Chandler.
2) Use the rules from the British version of Survivor to add more international flavour and colour to the programme.
1) When contestants get voted off the island, allow them to demand a hand recount and challenge the outcome in the Supreme Court.

CD Reviews
In a little over two months E-
magine Entertainment will release
The Tender Idols' third CD,
Distenger
tening to the album, the most press The Tender Idols might receive is a lawsuit by Oasis who
The band members hope this new album will propel them to heights of super-stardom, but it is doubtful this will happen. After lis-
may wish to reclaim the whiny, British-pop stereotype it has occupied for so long.
In a press release, band members claimed to have sounds similar to George Harrison and Keith Richards, but this is heard nowhere in the album. The Tender Idols had 12 different songs on its album, but the whole CD seemed like one hour-long ballad.
Though it's hard to personally identify with what the band, the music definitely had more soul than most popular music today. At the very least, The Tender Idols proved to be musicians and not just "arrangers."

Honeydogs resemble sincere songwriters
Pop bands trying to make a name for themselves in the 21st century have an uphill battle ahead of them.
Such bands must prove they can compete with the ranks of the greatest pop writers of the late 20th century, Ray Davies, Elvis Costello, Frank Black, R.E.M. and the untouchable Beatles together make a formidable argument for leaving well enough alone.
But don't tell that to the Honeydogs. These dogs seem perfectly happy continuing the tradition of major-to-minor chord progressions, bouncing piano, swooping Sgt. Pepper's-inspired orchestration and swaggering vocals.
Borrowing liberally from the songbooks of Paul Westerberg, songwriter Adam Levy has an ear for melody and ironic lyrics delivered more for the way they sound than for what they mean. A good example is this line from the song "Sour Grapes:" "Saw you in your K-car T-boned by the roadstar."
Levy may not have the swagger of a Paul Westerberg or the versatility of an Elvis Costello, but he's sincere enough in his musings that you should give the Honeydogs a chance if you're a pop fan.

Green Day elicits maturing sound
By Robert Pazell
jayplay @kansan.com
Jayplay writer
Many bands go through some kind of evolution through the years; some even coming fullcircle to their roots, whipping out tunes that bring tears to the eyes of old schoolers.
Fans of the punk-based rock 'n' roll band Green Day can find this full-circle evolution when the trio rolls into Kansas City's Hale Arena tomorrow night.
Green Day emerged in the 1990s in the Gilman Street punk/pop scene in Berkeley, Calif.
Fresh off their new release "Warning," Billie Joe and company promise to mix their crazy punk sound with some slower Dylan-esq, lyric-based tunes that will remind many old-school fans of the classic 1992 release "Kerplunk."
"We weren't really sure which direction we wanted to go."
Green Day front man Billie Joe Armstrong said in a recent interview. "But this time I knew I wanted to let every single vulnerability about myself come out."
As eclectic and diverse as their albums, Green Day's live shows have graced backyards of the East Bay Punk Scene, destroyed acres of land in the mudslinging show of Woodstock '94 and blew out Lawrence's beloved Liberty Hall back in the early 1990's.
Matt Rice, Kansas City, Mo., junior who attended the Liberty Hall show in 1994, said their onstage banter gave a hilarious twist to the show.
"They came out and were upset about the opening act canceling and talked trash," Rice said. "But when they started, things got crazy immediately. It was fun."
The Get Up Kids will open for Green Day at 7:30 p.m.
Holstein echoes musical diversity
Edited by Jacob Roddy
By Richard Gintowt
joyplay@kansan.com
jayplay writer
Holstein isn't a band that takes itself too seriously.
Jeff Jackson, guitar, Ezra Sykes, guitar and vocals, David Brodie, bass and vocals, and Alex Logan, drums, have been known to perform in sweatpants and backward baseball caps, and their lyrical subject matter ranges from the sublime to the absurd.
Musically, however, Holstein is unparalleled among local bands in their musicianship, dedication to performing and command of diverse styles. Citing diverse artists like Frank Zappa, King Crimson, The Minutemen, and Ween among their many influences, Holstein has developed a reputation for superior live performance around Lawrence and is set to release their second full-length album in March.
I joined twin axes Jeff and Ezra and muff-chopped bassist David at their East Lawrence establishment for a light-hearted chat about music, life and the way of the cow.
Q: Don't you guys have a song about basketball and Jesus Christ?
Ezra: Yeah, that's about a high school buddy of ours who went to play Division I basketball at Alabama, found Christ, and sent me a letter requesting money for his ministry.
Q: I've noticed a strong fictional current in many of your
Ezra: "White Gravy" is about a bulbous, chubby high school bulfond of our whose favorite food was white gravy. I'm serious. Most of our songs criticize things, I guess. Although we do criticize a lot of people, we also know that if these people came to see our show, they would realize we were dorks. Not dorks in a cool way either." I guess you could say we take very stupid songs very seriously.
lyrics. Where do ideas for songs like "White Gravy" and "Asian Princess" come from?
Q: Have any celebrities ever shown up at a Holstein show?
JOEL STEIN
STUDIO 360
David: Eric Chenowith walked into one of our Brown Bear shows once. He grimaced and walked right out.
Jeff: Well, we were playing at Rick's Place and Ezra was the middle of a solo when some lady walked out of the bathroom and grabbed Ezra's ass. He stopped playing and none of us could figure out what was going on. The song pretty much fell apart and he didn't tell us what happened until after the show.
Q: What's the worst show you've ever played?
Holstein's Menagerie
There seems to be a correlation between the way we play and whether or not people pay attention to us. At the shows where the girls like us and grab our ass, we play horribly. But when we play for a bunch of sorority girls at Jereys who don't even look at us, we play great.
Q: Have you ever attempted to tour?
David: We did a tour of Mass Street. We played at Jazzhaus and Brown Bear in one night.
Q: Tell us about your new album.
Jeff? We're real happy with the way it turned out. The songs fit together better than they did on our first album, and we had a lot more time to rehearse and perfect them.
Q: Does it bother you when people call you a "jam-band"?
Jeff: A little bit. I think most of our songs have much more structure than is typically expected from a jam-band. Also, lyrical content is important to us, whereas it might not be important to a jam-band. Plus, we're not consistently danceable. I think it's important that people come to see us before they make any judgments.

Woman who coined "Slinky" picked for Toy Hall of Fame
I KNOW YOU'RE FEELING BAD, BUT YOU CAN'T MOPE AROUND ALL AFTERNOON!
HOLIDAYSURG, Pa. — Who walks the stairs without a corn? Everyone knows it's Silly.
The steel stair mast has been immortalized on a postage stamp and inducted into Oregon's National Toy Hall of Fame. Now the 84-year-old grandmother who coined the name Slinky in 1945 is taking her bow.
On Feb. 10, Betty James joins toy magnates Mattel, Milton Bradley and Hasbro with an induction into New York's Toy Industry Hall of Fame.
"I'm delighted. I never expected it," James said. "I'm thrilled for Slinky and me both."
Eager parents forced to camp out so kids can attend magnet schools
NORTH LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — Ira Hocut camped out on the school board's lawn for five nights to ensure his daughter could attend his school of choice.
He wasn't alone. About 40 parents brought sleeping bags and tents to register their children for the 2001-02 school year.
- The Associated Press
Mayor Jim Bjay said they were working on an ordinance that would cover noise made by all animals, not just goats.
Hocut was first in line but he won't know whether his camping trip was successful until early March. Only a few spots open up each year at the city's Magnet schools, which are considered the best his state has to offer.
PRATTLIVLE, Ala. — Queenie Holton is fed up with the commotion coming from her neighbor's home every night, but it's not a booming stereo or an all-night party keeping her awake. It's her neighbor's amorous goats.
Formicating goats force woman to ask city council for ordinance
"It's right there at my bedroom window every night — the awfulest noise you ever heard," Hollon said. "What they are doing is breeding."
Hollon asked the City Council to force her neighbor, Horace Smith, to keep the kids quiet. Last week, a vote to outlaw goats in the city limits fell short by one vote.
North Little Rock officials believe in first come, first served.

Art exhibit gives museum a Cuban flair
Irony and Survival on the Utopian Island, a contemporary Cuban art exhibit, is on display at the Spencer Museum of Art. This Kayak, by Kcho, is one of the many works on display until March 18. Photo by Eric Hedinger/KANSAN
By Brandon Stinnett joyplay@kansan.com Joyplay writer
The Spencer Museum of Art's newest exhibit, "Contemporary Art From Cuba: Irony and Survival on the Utopian Island," showcases a wide variety of art from watercolor or paintings to a 17-foot kayak laying on a bed of beer bottles. The exhibit, organized by the Arizona State University Art Museum, will be on display through March 18.
Andrea Norris, director of the Spencer Museum of Art, said the exhibit came to the University to give Lawrence a glimpse of Cuban culture.
"Cuba is a place that we don't know a lot about right now, but we we're starting to learn more about it." Norris said. "People are starting to get more and more interested in Cuba, independent of the fact that we still have an embargo on trade with Cuba, and that we're still not really supposed to go there."
Norris said the museum decided to bring in the exhibit because of a growing number of talented, contemporary artists living in Cuba.
"We were aware that there were some important and exciting artists from Cuba already, so let's bring a whole group of them to Lawrence, and give people an opportunity to see what kind of work is being produced by this
country, where people think nobody is allowed to do anything or know anything or think anything," Norris said. "We only think it is horribly oppressed place when, in fact, there are some very vibrant aspects of Cuban culture that are still flourishing."
Most of the artwork in the exhibit deals with pressing issues that Cubans face in their everyday lives.
"They don't do pretty pictures of palm trees and beach cabanas," Norris said.
The kayak, perched atop a bed of beer bottles, has caught attention. The 17-foot vessel, constructed by an artist named Kcho, makes reference to people who risk their lives in the open sea while fleeing Cuba. Randy Jones, Leawood sophomore, said the kayak was the most accurate of the exhibits
"It has representation," Jones said. "Its kind of important that they use American beer. That may be the aspect of life transcending from Cuba to America, like the way they were trying to come from Cuba to America."
Overall, Jones said he felt more in tune with Cuban culture after checking out the exhibit.
"They use a lot of water and color," he said. "It seems like the country is happier after the revolution because they use a lot of color."

Jennifer Lopez stars as San Francisco's most successful wedding coordinator, a workaholic who is more concerned with her clients' happiness than her own dismal love life.
As the first few minutes of The Wedding Planner unfold, many viewers will ask themselves, "Haven't I seen this before?"
That is, until she meets the man of her dreams, and her two worlds collide. Mr. Right (Matthew McConaughey) turns out to be the groom in a wedding she is planning.
Both Lopez and McConaughey are convincing as the wistful pair and have a unique chemistry on screen.
The Wedding Planner, which opens tomorrow, depicts the classic scenario of falling for the right person at the wrong time.
There are a few problems with the movie, most of them stemming from its unbelievable plot points. After McConaulhey saves Lopez from a runaway garbage bin, they are instantly

drawn to one another. Their relationship is poorly developed, making it hard to understand why either character would be willing to risk their future for what seems to be merely a lusty attraction.
joyplay@kansan.com
javplay reviewer
Despite McConaughey's charming grin, his character takes such a moral blow in the beginning of the movie that it is hard to pull for him in later scenes. It is even more difficult to understand why Lopez' character continues to pine for him.
Not to say this movie is entirely horrible, it has its moments. One of the funniest involves McConaughey's misfortune with a statue's dismembered genitalia.
Despite the movie's tired, old plot, Lopez and McConaughey manage to bring a spirited energy to the screen.

A case of sexual battery that occurred in Gertrude Sellars Pearson-Corbin Hall on Wednesday calls attention to the issues of safety and enforcement of the rules set by the Department of Student Housing.
According to Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office, a young man presenting himself as a magazine solicitor was allowed entrance to a female resident's room at 2:30 p.m. After soliciting her for a sale, the man hugged her, kissed her lips, touched her breasts and then left the room.
Although the University has strict rules against soliciting, female residents at McCollum Hall were also harassed by solicitors last fall and were conned out of about $800.
Ken Stoner, director of student housing, said that soliciting was not allowed in student housing facilities.
"It's a standard policy," Stoner said.
The Department of Student Housing also sets strict guidelines concerning guests in residence and scholarship halls.
"Guests need to be escorted on a 24-hour basis in residence halls." Stoner said.
Amanda Ahlgren, Eden Prairie, Minn., freshman said that the rule of escorting guests

on a 24-hour basis would be almost impossible to enforce.
"There are so many people coming in and out, that you can't really tell whether they are residents or not," she said. "There is a security check only from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. Student IDs are run through a card machine and guests have to check in and leave their driver's license."
After Wednesday's incident, the KU Public Safety Office sent out an e-mail containing safety tips to all on-campus residents.
"People should keep their doors locked at all times." Mailen said. "They should notify student housing or the police in case of an unwelcome guest."
Brady Cabela, a resident of GSP-Corbin, said that Wednesday incident made her feel less safe than she did before.
"I guess I assumed they enforced the policy of escorting guests, especially male, at all times," said Cabela, Lincoln, Neb, freshman. "They need to crack down on security."

De-icing chemical involved in wreck
The University is looking into how a chemical designed to prevent accidents on slick roads may have contributed to one Wednesday, said Assistant Provost Jim Long.

Kansas staff writer
Long said Facilities Operations used a spray chemical called magnesium chloride to pretreat the major campus roads because of the weather forecast. The chemical is used to prevent accidents by melting snow and ice before road conditions become dangerous. After applying the chemical, crews spread sand over the road.
Police had been called to a noninjury accident at the intersection, but the vehicle had already been cleared from the scene, Patrick said. Ten minutes later there was a two-car accident involving four University students at the same intersection. Both vehicles were towed from the scene, but neither driver had damage estimates yesterday.
The Lawrence Police Department said it "noticed a slick substance on the roadway" when it was called to investigate an accident Wednesday afternoon at 11th and Missouri streets. The police called the street department to investigate, Sgt. Mike Pattrick said. Pattrick said Facilities Operations had applied the chemical.
Ladan Behbahani, St. Louis junior, said she pulled out of a parking lot near Memorial Stadium to go home and turned left when her car began fisttalling. She said it was too late to stop and her Toyota 4runner ended up blocking 11th Street.
"I was going maybe 25 miles per hour uphill with my SUV."

Behbahani said. "I was so surprised that this happened when I was going uphill with my car."
Behbahani said she was frustrated that the University's pretreatment plan made the roads slick.
"I can appreciate the fact that they're trying to do preventative measures, but this is ridiculous," she said.
Her Toyota 4runner ended up in the path of a Honda Accord carrying three University graduate students.
Long said the University had used the chemical for the last three years. He said it was used by other state institutions. The University's snow and ice policy, based on the weather forecast from the National Weather Service, prompts Facilities Operations to prepare for ice or accumulation of snow. The chemical effectively lasts four to five days. Long said
Fishel,Lenexa graduate student, said she was irritated and thought the chemical seemed to be causing more problems than it was solving.
The other driver in the accident, Kelly Fishel, also called the situation "ridiculous."
He said the University would examine the past applications of the chemical in its investigation.

Program boosts minority retention
By Donny Phillips
writer @kanson.com
Kanson staff writer
The word is spreading about HAWK Link.
Not yet three years old, the minority retention program is steadily growing in popularity and structure.
Minority freshmen as a whole at the University of Kansas had a retention rate of 68 percent during the 1999-2000 school year. But 78 percent of minority freshmen in the HAWK Link program returned for their sophomore year, according to the Office of Multicultural Affairs. That's on par with the University's overall retention rate of 80 percent.
While figures for the 2000-2001 school year won't be available for a few more weeks, Robert Page, director of multicultural affairs, said he expected the numbers to keep moving up.
"We have big expectations for this next groom," he said.
HAWK Link works by plugging

through event postings in residence halls and other places on campus.
Now, Titus and her co-coordinator, Natalie Lucas, Kansas City, Kan., senior, have compiled a HAWK Link mailing list of almost 80 names, which allows them to inform program participants of upcoming events and services via e-mail.
The Office of Admissions has been an ally in this effort, Titus said, because it sent the office a list of incoming minority students.
"We're sending them information about the HAWK Link program to get them involved before they even get here so they know what we're about, why they should be involved and how we're going to help them," she said.
Titus and Lucas are surprised by how many students are coming to the office, either to inquire about the program or just to see a friendly face.
"I think that's one of the most important things," Lucas said. "A lot of times people don't feel like they need tutors or financial aid programs, they just want to know if they walk on campus they'll see someone they know."
Such is the case for Alisa Lewis, East St. Louis, IL., freshman, who didn't know many people when she arrived at the University, but was able to meet new friends through HAWK Link events.
"It makes the transition a little easier." Lewis said.
She has been involved in numerous programs and activities since coming to the University. Lewis said she finds the office a comforting place.
"That's the only getaway I have," Lewis said.
Titus and Lucas are planning a sophomore adjustment program in April and a HAWK Link graduation ceremony in May for those who are active in the program.
As for the future of the program, both Titus and Lucas are graduating in May and are looking for someone else to take over the reins.

Cost-cutting measures leave students cold

Sitting in class in Strong Hall, Marae Christofferson struggles to concentrate. She struggles not to sleep, and she struggles not to dwell on the frigid conditions.
"I leave my jacket on," the Overland Park sophomore said. "I don't have gloves and I wish I did."
Gloves in the classroom weren't exactly what the University had in mind when it turned down the heat in November, said Jim Long, assistant provost.
He said the University did not want to freeze out students but rather to cut the University's hefty utilities bill, which totaled $7.5 million in 2000 for basic services, such as natural gas, electricity, water and sewer and landfill refuge.
"We've had some people that have expressed concern about the temperature, especially in office spaces." Long said. "However, we've requested the support and assistance of everyone on campus, so that we can work together to conserve energy."
Provost David Shulenburger issued a memo to deans and department heads last fall asking that thermostats across campus be set to 60 degrees during the day and 60 degrees at night. The provost's office made exceptions for research laboratories or computer labs that remained in use at night, Long said.
However, the University has now taken another step toward saving money.
The amount requested by the University was
"There's been a request to the state Board of Regents to provide a supplemental amount of money to pay for the cost of the utilities that the University purchases." Long said.
$900,000 to $1 million, Long said.
Meanwhile, Long said that the University was doing a six-month study of gas utilization on campus which is due in mid-February. The study will look at the bills from November and December to see how much the University has saved with energy conservation efforts.
Long also said that even though student housing had its own energy budget, it had also been included in the conservation efforts.
"We've asked for the residence halls to cooperate with us to set their thermostats lower." Long said.
Meanwhile, Christofferson, who also lives in student housing, will just have to wait for warmer weather.
"I don't think it's worth it unless they're saving lots of money," she said. "I fall asleep when it's cold, so it's not good for me."

Columnist wins honor from White Foundation
Molly ivins, one of the nation's best known political columnists, is the 2001 nominee for the William Allen White Foundation's national citation.
A panel of foundation trustees chose Ivins to receive the citation on Friday, Feb. 9, at the University of Kansas. She will attend a foundation luncheon and then give the annual William Allen White Day public address at 1:30 p.m. at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
Mary Wallace, assistant dean of journalism, said the citation had been presented annually since 1950 to journalists who exemplified the ideals of William Allen White, a Pulitzer Prize-winning Kansas editor. The School of Journalism bears White's name.
Ivins, a nationally syndicated columnist from Texas, has been a recipient of several journalism awards. She wrote a book on President George W. Bush and participates in Amnesty International's journalism network and the Reporter's Committee for Freedom of the Press.
Last year's winner of the William Allen White Foundation citation was Bob Woodward, an assistant managing editor of the Washington Post who won a Pulitzer Prize for his coverage of the Watergate scandal in the 1970s.

"It's good news and I'm enthusiastic," Davis said Wednesday night as he reported results from the state's desperate power auction, which netted 39 bidders. What's more, Davis said that electricity rates shouldn't have to rise as lawmakers prepared to turn their attention yesterday to crafting a long-range solution to the energy crisis.

California receives bids from energy suppliers
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Gov. Gray Davis expressed confidence the state could keep its lights on without going broke now that dozens of energy suppliers have made long-term offers to sell the state power. Though the average bids of $69 a megawatt were higher than the $55 officials had hoped for, they were still far lower than the $600 the state has sometimes had to pay on the open market.
Bush contributor profits from state power woes
WASHINGTON — One of the biggest beneficiaries of the California power crisis is a Texas energy conglomerate that has helped bankroll President Bush's political career more than any other single company.
Enron Corp. of Houston is among a handful of the independent electric power brokers and producers that have reaped giant revenue increases from California's power shortages and higher natural gas prices nationwide. The new president's rejection of price controls to hold down soaring electricity costs in the Golden State reflects the views of Enron, the largest wholesaler of electricity and largest owner of natural gas pipelines in North America. Enron and its employees gave $113,800 to Bush's presidential campaign; $250,000 to the Republican National Convention host committee; and $300,000 to the Presidential Inauguration Committee.

Future Palestinian map neared in negotiations
JERUSALEM — Israel and the Palestinians have made good progress in drawing the borders of a future Palestinian state, negotiators said yesterday, as both sides prepared to resume talks in an Egyptian resort following a timeout called by Israel despite a tight deadline. The talks in Taba, Egypt, were to resume yesterday afternoon. Israeli negotiator Yossi Sarid said negotiations would have to end four or five days before Israel's Feb. 6 election. Palestinian negotiators said progress had been made in drawing the borders of a Palestinian state. Palestinian Planning Minister Nabil Shaath said a Palestinian map outlining the state recognized the principle of a land swap — Israel would annex small parts of the West Bank, and the Palestinians would get some Israeli land in return.

Greenspan supports tax cut
WASHINGTON — Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan gave a major boost yesterday to President Bush's plan for across-the-board cuts in taxes, and at the same time he warned of threats posed by the dramatic economic slowdown.
He said the U.S. economy's growth rate at present is "probably very close to zero."
Testifying before the Senate Budget Committee, Greenspan said rapidly expanding federal surpluses, which by one estimate will total $5 trillion over the next 10 years, offer ample room both to provide tax relief and to eliminate more than $3 trillion in national debt held by the public.
By endorsing the economic soundness of cutting taxes, Greenspan bolstered Bush's efforts to build support in Congress for his 10-year, $1.6 trillion tax-reduction package.
While there can be various reasons to adjust taxes, he said, "if you're asking strictly on the question of what is likely to contribute to maximum economic growth on average, then clearly tax reductions, which reflect lower marginal rates, will in the view of most economists be the appropriate direction in which we ought to go." Bush originally suggested the
package as a way to return excess tax money to Americans. Now, citing dwindling economic growth, he has said he may accelerate the program to ensure that the country does not slip into recession.
JOHN RICHARD BROWN
Greenspan endorsed t h i s approach, saying while the tax program would come too late by the time it gets through Congress to prevent a downturn, it would help ensure a sustainable recovery.
Greenspan: comments aid Bush's tax-reduction plan

"Should current economic weakness spread beyond what appears likely, having a tax cut in place may, in fact, do noticeable good," he said.
Previously, the Fed chairman had expressed a preference for using projected surpluses to pay down the national debt. Greenspan said he still believes debt reduction is the best use for the extra revenue, but government estimates project more than enough surplus funds to pay off the debt before the end

of the decade and still cut taxes.
"I must say, I never expected to see the day where I would be talking about anything other than reducing the debt."
Greenspan said. "I'm running into the tyranny of zero, which is where you can't reduce (the debt) any more. And so, have my views changed? Yes, they've changed. They have to change. I see no alternative to that."
Bush was quick to praise Greenspan's tax-cut support, as were other Republicans.
"I was pleased to hear Mr. Greenspan's words. I thought they were measured, just right," Bush said. "He recognizes that we need good monetary policy and sound fiscal policy to make sure that the economy grows."
The president added: "I don't think Alan Greenspan was supporting any particular plan. I don't think he was going to the Hill to say, well, President Bush has got the right plan. I felt like he was speaking policy in general."
Many Democrats, who have criticized Bush's $1.6 trillion package as too large and economically risky, said Greenspan dispointed them.
"I'm your friend, ... but in all candor you shock me with your statement," State Sen. Ernest Hollings, D-S.C., told Greenspan during the hearing.

Library proposal concerns faculty
Letter protests increased focus on technology
By Andrew Davies
writer @kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
University of Kansas faculty members and library officials will have a second meeting next week to iron out differences over the direction the library is heading.
Library officials and representatives from each department drafted a document last fall called the "Proposed Strategic Vision for the University of Kansas Libraries." The document outlined what University officials and faculty wanted the library to accomplish over the next three to five years.
David Smith, associate professor of sociology, and 11 other faculty members of the sociology department recently wrote an open letter to the administration outlining their concerns with the proposed future of the University library system. The main concern of the faculty members was that KU libraries were gradually relying more on electronic resources than books.
other faculty members to sign.
Smith said the letter was distributed to inform faculty of the issue.
The letter has not been sent to the administration, but is being circulated around campus for
Smith said the proposed strategic vision of the library system placed too much emphasis on electronic resources alone. He said he and others who signed the letter would not mind that if it would be balanced by an equal emphasis on books and documents.
Melissa Carr/KANSAN
"We're trying to invite more people to participate in an expanded dialogue," he said.
Faculty members are currently collecting signatures that support having an equal emphasis on printed documents as on electronic resources in KU libraries. The following numbers reflect the amount of funds spent on print and electronic resources in the past four years.
"So far, everybody who's responded to me has signed it," he said.
1998 90 percent Print Resources
10 percent Electronic Resources
1999 11.8 percent Print Resources
88.2 percent Electronic Resources
2000 88.7 percent Print Resources
11.3 percent Electronic Resources
2001 12.04 percent Print Resources
87.96 percent Electronic Resources
Electronic vs. Print Resources
As of Tuesday, Smith said about 65 signatures had been collected.
Smith and Joane Nagel, professor of sociology, met with Julia Rholes, interim library dean, last week. Both Smith and Rholes said the meeting went well and that library officials took their concerns seriously.
Rholes said this was a good opportunity to gather more input from faculty.
"Even though I think it may have come out of some initial misunderstanding, I think it's going to give us an opportunity to have more dialogue with the faculty and reach greater understanding." Rholes said.
Smith said the letter was intended to make the libraries better, not to create tension.
"We view ourselves as supporters of the library," Smith said. "It's not adversarial. Some of the faculty felt concerned about the implications of the proposed vision, so we're voicing our concern."
Rholes said the library welcomed and used faculty input when ordering books. She said bibliographers — librarians who order books — always consulted department representatives to find out what type of materials each individual wanted ordered.

departments and the bibliographers to figure out what works best for this particular subject area."
"There's not going to be one decision for all subject areas," she said. "I think we're going to have to go one by one with the
Smith said he thought both sides would work for a compromise.
"My guess is that we'll get a sympathetic response from the administration and reach a common ground," he said.

Rack minimized the screen and quickly moved her demonstration to another computer — one that was not affected.

Study abroad director wants to help students experience the world

Gronback-Tedesco helping students explore.
From childhood, Susan Gronbeck Tecso saw the big picture, realizing the importance of the global village.
She will impart the significance of exploring this village to students as the new director of study abroad. Gronbeck-Tedesco looks to merge the adventure of a study abroad program with the practical needs of students.

of this semester as part of a restructuring plan for the program. Gronbeck-Tedesco replaced Margareta O'Connell, who had led the study abroad program for four years. Carlin declined to comment on O'Connell's removal because it is a personnel issue.
The program hopes to reach a greater diversity of departments and students with study abroad.
While goals have been set forth, the program is working toward defining the specifics, to enhance participation. The office is creating a database to analyze which schools and students are utilizing study abroad and which are not.
With time constraints and numerous degree requirements, many students don't feel they have the option to study abroad. These students, who have not been part of study abroad, are the exact people the program is targeting, said Carlin.
"In terms of the big picture, we want to increase the number of students going abroad," Carlin said. "We have some wonderful programs with very creative faculty. We just want to expand the number of programs we are offering."
"I think I understand how students feel. They have to cope with getting a degree while trying to take advantage of an international experience." Susan Gronbeck- Tedesco
new director of study abroad
Carlin offers the example of the contrast between the University and the University of Kansas Medical School.
The Med Center boasts a participation rate of 20 percent. Many pre-med students don't take advantage of study abroad during their undergraduate years. Fearful of falling behind, they wait until medical school to travel abroad. In contrast, the Lawrence campus had fewer than a 1,000 students participate last year, leading to a small percentage of overall students.
"I hope to work with the faculty and the chairs," Gronbeck-Tedesco said. "The academic programs must help define what the experience should be. I hope to help provide the support they need to make this happen. I want to work with the Med Center to learn from their programs."
Gronbeck-Tedesco has worked at the University for more than two decades in everything from affirmative action to academic affairs. This included a six-year stint as the assistant director of the Center of International Programs.
Jeannette Johnson, an assistant to the provost, thinks Gronbeck-Tedesco will be a good fit for the department. A long time colleague of Gronbeck-Tedesco, Johnson said the director's extensive knowledge of the University and her interest in international matters will aid her in the new position.
"Susan likes interacting with people. She has very good interpersonal skills. She is quickly comfortable with a wide range of people," Johnson said.

You can hear the deep hum of a cello in classical music. You can hear the rolling melody of a piano. You can even hear emotion.
Maybe that's why some Black composers find the ultimate freedom of artistic expression in classical music, an area of music often viewed through a White lens.
But you can't hear color.
The 15-member ensemble has performed at major venues like Lincoln Center in New York and has been featured on NBC's The Today Show and National Public Radio's Performance Today. The group specializes in performing works by Black composers and promotes appreciation for Black musical heritage.
Montgomery, who holds a doctorate of musical arts in piano chamber music and accompanying from the University of Michigan, is a founding member of the Black Music Repertory Ensemble at Columbia College of Chicago.
The most important thing to understand, Montgomery said, is that the composer's race or ethnicity does not necessarily affect his or her music.
"You're not going to be able to

tell the difference between a composer of Greek ancestry or Black ancestry or Jewish or whatever," she said. Montgomery said the composer's life experience, not the color of his or her skin, would touch the music.
Montgomery will bring those "histories" to life when she performs for the first time in Kansas, taking the Lied Center stage as a pianist in "Music by Black Composers."
"They're going to bring their own histories," she said.
The program is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday and will reunite Montgomery with renowned cellist Anthony Elliot.
Elliot, now a professor of music at the University of Michigan, has performed with Montgomery since 1985. He has played with orchestras such as the New York Philharmonic and the Detroit Symphony.
The duo will perform two sonatas — "Sonata for Cello and Piano" by George Theophilus Walker, who in 1994 became the first African-American composer to receive the Pulitzer Prize in music, and "Sonata for Cello and Piano" by David Baker, director of the jazz program at Indiana University.
Also on the program are "Five Negro Spirituals," arranged by Laurence Brown; "Five Verses with Vamps" by noel DaCosta; "Suite for Violoncello and Piano" by Howard Swanson; and "Three Ways for Cello and Piano" by Augustus O. Hill.
"In all my years of training for musical history, I only ran across a brief paragraph on William Grant Still, who is considered the father of Black composition," she said. "Of course I was the only African American in the class."
Happy for the opportunity to broaden the narrow attention afforded Blacks in classical music, Montgomery pointed to her extensive training and three academic degrees as the
Montgomery said she found satisfaction in highlighting the work of such accomplished Black composers. She contrasted the experience with a moment when, as a graduate student at Michigan, she realized the lack of references to Black composers in textbooks.

Mental health stigmas need to be refuted
I don't know Kerry Collins,but I know where he's been. I know what he's been through.
Collins and I both sought treatment at the Meninginger Psychiatric Hospital in Topeka in January of 1999. He entered the Professionals in Crisis-Alcohol Recovery Program and stayed in treatment for two months before moving to New York to sign a contract with the Giants. After being released from the Carolina Panthers because of his emotional and alcohol problems in 1998, the Giants signed him to a four year, multimillion dollar contract. They stipulated that he continue treatment in New York, not that Collins needed any encouraging.
I entered a separate program at Menninger called the Partial Hospitalization Services, which I attended in some form or another for

a year. I never talked to Collins, who starts at quarterback for the NFC-champion football team, but I often ate a lunch mere ten yards from him.
He and I both had family and emotional problems that led us to stupid actions. The former Penn State football star abused alcohol and was arrested for driving under the influence. I purposely overdosed on my psychiatric medication in a pathetic cry for help.
I am "confessing" not because reporters are eavesdropping near my door or to achieve some lame 15 minutes of fame. I am bringing my past to light because I am tired of the stigma that surrounds mental illness.

Mental illness adversely affects too many people — roommates, family, loved ones — to hide quietly in shame.
Recent reports on National Public Radio have cited some disturbing statistics. A mid-1990's study at Harvard University stated that 39 percent of college students suffer from a mental disorder in a given year. This includes depression, eating disorders, anxiety, or drug and alcohol abuse.
For comments, contact Chris Borniger or Nathan Willis at 864-4924 or opinion@kansan.com
One in 10 college students strongly considers committing suicide, according to a recent study by the Centers for Diseases Control and Prevention.
Aside from the personal suffering that mental illness can cause, it also adversely affects the community as a whole. Billions of dollars are lost each year when employees cannot work because of their psychiatric problems. Homelessness, narcotic dependency, and crime largely stem from mental illness.
To address these social problems as well as observing its 50th anniversary, the Bert Nash Mental Health Center is playing host to a community summit this weekend at the Lied Center called "Building a Better Community." The event is free, but tickets are almost gone

Beware of 2004 election as Hillary builds resume
Now that Hillary Clinton has seized her icy grip on the state of New York, it's hard to discern public service from hidden agendas.
Clearly, she wants to use the state as a stepping stone to political glory. After all, it happens to be a state with a very large population.
Who could blame her?
She saw an opportunity for greatness and took it.
But what could she be after?
If I wanted to run for president after the most recent election mess, then
The White House?
Supreme Ruler of Planet Earth — or maybe the whole universe?
Shawn Peterson columnist ooinion@kansan.com
Being a senator from New York and a former first lady might do. Someone who can run the country from the Oval Office as well as the bedroom would also be a good candidate.
I surely would hope that I had adequate credentials.
And now that Hillary has become the first First Lady to be elected to political office, it will be difficult to keep the dominoes from
falling.
While she's up on Capitol Hill, media coverage of the Senate could reach an all-time high, thanks to her celebrity. Maybe, while she's at it, she can bring decency back to the Senate by traveling back in time to eliminate the traits of human selfishness and man's desire for power.
I know there are many women out there who disagree with my opinion, but let's be honest here: She can't even add variety to her wardrobe. Heck, even Fidel Castro dresses better than she does. At least he uses a good color — military green — instead of Hillary's usual stale pink and lovely Dead Sea blue.
When we all go to the polls in 2004, vote no on Ms. Pretty-in-Pink. Elizabeth Dole would be a much better candidate, and I'm not even conservative.
Hillary can't be all things to all people, and she knows that. But I bet she'll divorce Bill before she'd let the public know.
But after all, she's not Superwoman.
Depends on whom you ask, I guess.
I guarantee you, she'll run for president in 2004. When (if?) you go to the polls, be sure you vote against her. Save the planet and the whole fate of humankind.

Editorial
Students belong at forum
This weekend's summit is a chance to take an active role in improving Lawrence.
This weekend the Lied Center will play host to the Bert Nash Mental Health Center Community Summit. This is a community-development forum designed to bring together leaders in government, business, law, education and local religious groups and residents of Lawrence and Douglas County.
This is an excellent opportunity for our community to gather to discuss the issues and express concerns people have about the livelihood of the community.
The summit will be from 8 to 9:30 tonight and from 8 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. tomorrow. Speakers and 13 focus groups of local officials and community leaders will discuss the changes that have occurred in Douglas County through the years. People have expressed concerns that the community does not seem to be as tight-knit as in years past.
People don't know their neighbors as well, and citizens of the community interact less. The forum will explore why this is happening and what we can do to become a healthier community.
This summit is a great opportunity for KU students to voice their opinions about this city and get great tips on how to get more involved in the Lawrence community.
KU students constitute a significant portion of the population in Lawrence, and community leaders need to hear our concerns and know that we care about our town.
Not only is this a great educational opportunity for students, but also a great way to show our support for our community.
This summit is a starting point to bring our community back together. The more involvement we have in our hometown, the easier it will be to do so.

On the subject of abortion, shouldn't the man have some voice in the matter? I mean, he has to pay child support. Shouldn't he be involved in the decision for an abortion?
For Katie Laird to compare rape to abortion and to say that abortion is worse than rape is just an ignorant statement. There is one significant difference: When you have an abortion, whether you agree with it, no matter what you opinion of abortion is, you have a choice. You make a conscious decision. When you are raped, you have no choice.

Letters to the Editor Story misinterprets changes in musical format at KJHK
The article written about KJHK which appeared on the front page of yesterday's Kansan ("KJHK listeners unsure about format shift") was grossly misleading.
After reading this article, one might have been misled to believe that KJHK has fallen prey to the same Top 40 format shift that strangled the Lazer last year. In fact, there is no chance of KJHK going the way of the Lazer. This misconception is due to the author's failure to define the "format shift" (which was properly defined in a separate article on the second page, surprisingly written by the same person) and incongruous comparison of KJHK to the Lazer, which was perpetuated by statements from students who were clearly misinformed when interviewed.
In truth, this "format shift" on KJHK is simply a commitment to playing three songs an hour by more recognizable artists such as Radiohead, PJ Harvey, Johnny Cash, Outkast, George Harrison, or Superdrag. Such artists are recognized for their artistic credibility but may not receive adequate airplay because of changes in less artistically credible stations such as the Lazer. Thus, KJHK is continuing its tradition of exposing artists who deserve airplay but may not receive it. We are preserving our role as "the sound alternative," not abandoning it
In the future, I hope Kansan staff writers are more careful not to create stories where they don't exist. If there is apprehension about KJHK playing popular music, it will be partly due to this misinforming article that unfortunately graced the front page of yesterday's Kansan.

Abortion advocates incorrectly use 'choice' to frame debate
I'd like to comment on the columns regarding abortion in Monday's Kansan.
First, I'd like to applaud Mr. Chamberlain for pointing out the legal objections to the the *Roe v. Wade* decision ("*Roe v. Wade undermines democracy*"). It is important that people realize that there was strong opposition to the decision within the Court itself.
Second, Ms. Murphy ("Maneuvering, violence threaten legal abortions") expresses her consternation that some Americans have continued working against what she says is "a woman's right to choose." The expression used here is one that abortion rights advocates have used in order to set up a straw-man argument that may be easily attacked. Instead of addressing the issue of whether or not abortion kills a human being, they accuse opponents of abortion of being against "choice."
Look at it this way. If we were talking about a 5-year-old instead of a fetus, clearly no one would have any problems with limit or not her child will live. The only difference here is whether or not we will treat an unborn child the same as we do one which has survived through birth. On this topic we may debate, but setting up the debate as being over choice is irresponsible and devious.

Abortion prevents problems, is a vital part of femininity
Upon reading the editorial focusing on the Roe w. Wade court decision of 1973, and the need for a subsequent revision of the case, I
was horrified by Ms. Laird's ill-conceived notions pertaining to the effects of the case ("Legal abortions foster social irresponsibility," Wednesday).
Her belief that, mentally, men and women simply cannot handle stress nearly as well as before Roe v. Wade is preposterous. As for the percentage she graced us with on the reported cases of child abuse since 1973, I'm curious if those numbers had already begun to rise, with or without the Supreme Court's ruling. Furthermore, as is the case with most crimes, numbers tend to rise over time. If she chooses to keep her argument from being as one-sided as it is, perhaps she will look up the percentage of murders on the whole from 1973 to present. Why do I believe that number is likely to be as large? My greatest issue with Laird's editorial is her persistent blame of society's woes on one court decision. ...
Furthermore, although there was no problem pointing out the painful repercussions of having an abortion, she also failed to point out the possible implications of denying a woman a safe abortion. Despite some stance pro-lifers' belief that a woman gets what she deserves, does a woman deserve a back alley and a hanger? ... Please excuse my harsh rebuttal if I am wrong about my body being an issue of personal liberty.
Liberty is something I believe we take for granted in this country. With that, I also believe many see this world as being better than it is. In spite of the fact that Laird points to all the evils, all of course made possible by Roe v. Wade, she begins to linger on sisterhood and the beauty of motherhood, which we should support both emotionally and financially. As a feminist, a woman, and I hope one day, a mother, I can agree with her statement, but only to a point. How is it that my duty as a sister becomes being mother to all those girls unable to accept responsibility for their actions? My open arms can open only so wide.
Not only do I find fault with her pleas of women to embrace the "fallen" but also her conviction that our society brands and manipulates. She believes we see these children as an inconvenience, and she's right. I will not bear the brunt of raising a child with money I don't have in order to pay for thousands of children who were not wanted to begin with. I accept that people make mistakes; however, I do not accept someone forcing me to "mother" through welfare and other means children who neither the mother nor father would likely have anything to do with.
Ultimately, the argument she makes for a woman's strenght lying in her femininity is something I believe wholeheartedly. Bearing children is a gift a man will never know and something beautiful that I will look forward to with awesome anticipation. Yet Laird is confusing the strength we gain through motherhood with the strenght we women have by being citizens of this country. Although a woman may be pro-life, she is not shunning that femininity. Instead, she is embracing her constitutional rights and that personal liberty that so many would like to take away.
Ilana Reichman Boca Raton, Fla., junior
Editorial's implied similarities between rape, abortion false
I am writing in response to Katie Laird's editorial. How dare you compare abortion to rape. The two are not even comparable experiences. The most obvious point: Women choose to have abortions, they do not choose to be raped. Women are not held down against their will and brutally attacked during an abortion. I suggest you actually talk with someone who has been raped then think about the scars that a woman suffers, for life.
Women are able to recover after an unwanted pregnancy and live the lives they set forth to live. Women have abortions for reasons that vary, such as interference with ability to work and support themselves, finances, problems with spouse or partner, and not wanting to be a single parent. According to a report issued by the Center for Disease Control in 1988, about 16,000 women have abortions each year because they became pregnant after rape or incest.
You ask what good comes from abortions?
Are you really so naive to think that Roe v. Wade is responsible for society's downfalls? Access to semi-automatic weapons, inadequate education — these are issues that negatively affect society. As for your child abuse argument, don't you think that the incidence of child abuse would rise because of parents forced to go through an unwanted pregnancy and birth?
I have a question: Are you saying that women who aren't feminine or can't have children are not strong women? A woman's strength is not in these things. A woman's strength lies in the fact that she can do whatever she wants to do, and no one should be able to tell her she can't.
Cathy Eaton Anthony senior
Supreme Court forced public to swallow its opinion in Roe
The letter "Supreme Court didn't overstep its bounds in Roe v. Wade ruling" (Letters to the Editor, Tuesday) missed the point in the debate about abortion. The issue is about whether the fetus is a life.
This issue comes down to personal opinion on the state of the fetus. Without scientific evidence, this issue is a matter of opinion rather than fact, and people express their opinion in our government is by voting for legislators who create laws. The Supreme Court in Roe v. Wade enacted the opinion that a fetus is not a life without scientific evidence or constitutional basis. The Supreme Court overstepped its bounds by ruling that the states can't create laws restricting abortion, despite that some states have a majority of people who believe that abortion is murder.
The situation would be the same if the Supreme Court stopped states from allowing abortions in states where the majority of people believe that abortion is a woman's right. Without scientific evidence or constitutional basis regarding the state of the fetus, the Supreme Court ruled without any basis other than its own personal opinion. The Supreme Court denied the rights of people to govern themselves, therefore undermining democracy.

Anti-abortion advertisement hurts Kansan's objectivity
I am writing in regard to the advertising supplement that was inserted into the Kansan on Tuesday. It is one thing to be unwillingly swept up into a presidential term that I completely disagree with; it is quite another to witness the apparent poisoning of the "non-biased" outlet of free speech at our University. In my previous experience, I have found that newspapers have discretion as to what ads they will place. It would seem rational that the Kansan would have this same discretion, although it was apparently not exercised so far as this abortion scare-tactic insert. What about considering the other side of this issue?
well as everyone reading this, paid for with our student fees? Doesn't accepting an ad that is this blatant, biased and one-sided violate some principle of media ethics, such as that the media is there to be a source of information without bias? It was my understanding that media in general, as well as the Kansan, are there to provide accurate, unbiased, informative, correct information.
Would the Kansan ever run an eight-page Planned Parenthood insert (even though they removed their name from their ad for the "Sex on the Hill" issue — hmm, isn't that interesting?) Would they be willing to fund one to make up for the unfortunate content displayed in today's paper, that I as
Obviously the income generated by this glossy red herring is more important to the staff at the Kansan, rather than preserving an informative, unbiased image.
Carrie Gray Portland, Ore., senior
Removal of ad supplement damaged freedom of speech
On Tuesday, I witnessed two women removing all the pro-life inserts from the Kansans in the box across from Fraser Hall. When I asked them why they were removing them, they explained that they were preventing the inserts from falling on the ground and creating litter — a flat-out lie from two misguided (and downright underhanded) pro-choice "activists."
A pro-life organization paid good money to have those inserts put into the Kansans, and that organization was perfectly within its rights to do this. The two women, however, were breaking the law by removing the inserts.
Although I'm sure these "activists" thought they were doing good, in reality they were undermining what all Americans, pro-life and pro-choice alike, hold dear: freedom of speech. If those two women didn't like what the pro-life inserts said, they should have written and had published their own inserts (or found a pro-choice organization that would). To resort to guerrilla tactics such as theirs is disgraceful.

People should halt hollow talk base opinions on study of facts
People fail to realize that ideological differences breed dissent. All talk of "bipartisan-ship" and "unity," especially following an election such as November's, is nothing more than scapegoating. No mandate was established by any of our country's political parties, period (48 percent for Gore, 48 percent for Bush, 3 percent for Nader, no majority), and so we are divided. The Republicans want to make the Democrats look bad; the Democrats want to make the Republicans look bad and make the Greens look worse (Ralph Nader lost the election for AI Gore?); and the Greens just want in the fight. Politics is about compromise, but when very fundamental beliefs (including concepts of ethical behavior) are at stake in the compromise, don't expect much to happen.
I am tired of people talking about "bleeding heart liberals" and "right wing extremists" as well. Express your own opinion, but do not use slurs to invalidate others' opinions. Use facts. What is it about liberals that gives them a "bleeding hearts"? Liberals and Democrats aren't even the same thing. There are many conservative Democrats. Some people on the right are very liberal, and quite far from being "extremists," and Republicans. Why exactly did Greens "owe" their votes to Gore? Try looking up all these words to see what they actually mean. Use them correctly.
If you aren't extremely well-informed about an issue, please do not speak at all. The world is too full of demagogues and propagandists that confuse issues. As tempting as it may be to deceive others into sharing your point of view, it is not constructive. You can only educate yourself.

Students spend more time online, less studying
By Brooke Hesler

Kansas staff write
Joel Pfannenstiel spends more time in front of his computer than many students spend at their part-time jobs.
Pfannenstiel, Wichita junior, said he spent about 24 hours a week on his computer, doing everything from class assignments to surfing the Internet and keeping up on e-mail.
A 109-page study, conducted by the Higher Education Research Institute at the University of California, Los Angeles, suggests that students are spending more time on the computer, taking time away from studying and partying.
Pfannenstiel said he was not surprised stu.
"Getting on the computer is a lot easier than going out and interacting with people." Pfannenstiel said. "It's just another form of addiction."
dents were spending more time on the computer.
The study revealed that 78.5 percent of college freshmen surveyed said they owned a personal computer. This is up from 68.4 percent last year and 27.3 percent in 1985 when the question first appeared on the survey.
Likewise, 77.8 percent of women and 79.5 percent of men surveyed said they frequently used the computer prior to attending college.
Despite an increasing push toward technology in the classroom, with online homework and syllabi in some cases, the report found students weren't studying as much as in the past. Only 36 percent of students reported

studying for more than six hours a week, the lowest number since 1987.
That was the case when Melissa Buren, Emporia freshman, came to the University of Kansas. Buren said she spent less time on her
homework since coming to college than when she was in high school.
"I think a lot of it is that professors here don't give homework very much," she said. "You can just do the reading and be done."
Although students may be studying less, they're not necessarily partying more, according to the report.
This year, 51.1 percent of students said they spent three or more hours partying - 10 percent less than in 1987.

"I might be a little different," Deng said. "I just try to concentrate on my work, and I don't have a lot of time left over."

Cold weather OK for exercise

Kansan staff writer
Athletes and students alike run every day in bitterly-cold temperatures, but running in the cold may not always be safe.
Andy Tate runs eight miles every day. As a member of the University of Kansas track team, Tate, Lake Elmo, Minn., senior, said he took precautions before running in the cold.
"Before I go running, I makes sure I dress in layers and that my head and hands are well covered," he said.
Tate said running in the cold was tough on his skin.
"Running on the ice and in the cold wind is the hardest," he said. "I often end up with wind burn and dry skin."
Randall Rock, physician at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said those running in cold weather should be careful.
"When running in cold weather you should make sure your body is well covered in order
Summit to address community life
Sarah Neal, Sterling graduate student, is training to run marathons. She said she also ran in all kinds of temperatures and sometimes experienced side effects.
to avoid frost bite," Rock said . "If a student is out of breath or is coughing, they should stop running."
Rock said running in the cold was usually safe if one follows precautions, but those who have asthma might have a harder time running in cold temperatures.
"Sometimes if I run too fast in cold weather, I can burn my lungs," she said.
"Exercising in the cold air can be a stimulus for asthma," he said. "Those who have asthma should take extra precautions while running out in the cold."
Tate said he encouraged students not to shy away from running out in the cold.
"Running out in the cold is not that bad," he said. "Once your body gets used to the temperature outside, it becomes much easier."

The Bert Nash Mental Health Center will bring Lawrence residents together to discuss the changing role of the community at a summit starting tonight at the Lied Center.
The summit, "Building a Better Community," is one event celebrating the center's 50 years of service to Lawrence and Douglas County.
Robert Putnam, author of Bowling Alone: The Collapse and Revival of American Community and professor of government at Harvard University, will be the keynote speaker.
Tickets to the event are free, said Karla Kral. a graduate student in anthropology and media specialist for Bert Nash.
Gary Shepherd, associate professor of communications studies, said he was encouraging students in his honors communication seminar to attend the summit.
"This question of community and feeling we don't take part as much as we did is pretty much a shared feeling," Shepherd said.
Shepherd said the class he taught would explore how communication could eliminate problems in the community. He said his personal research addressed the relationship between community and communications in the United States and that Putnam's book was required reading for his students.
John Nalbandian, professor and chairman of public administration, said he would also encourage his students to attend the summit.
"These issues are important to any kind of town growing as rapidly as we are," said Nalbandian, who is a former Lawrence mayor.
SCHEDULE OF EVENTS
Tonight: Keynote address by Robert Putnam, author of Bowling Alone: The Collapse and Revival of American Community, and professor of government at Harvard University
Tomorrow:
a. a.m. — Deborah Prothrow-Stit, director of public health practice at Harvard University, will discuss why youth violence is a public health concern, what factors influence youth violence and what steps can be taken to eliminate it.
9:30 a.m. - Peter Benson, president a nonprofit organization dedicated to the well-being of children and adolescents, will discuss strategies that families, neighborhoods and larger communities can use to encourage healthy and successful youth.
A question-and-answer session will follow each presentation
11 a.m. — Reginald Robinson, counselor to Chancellor Robert Hemenway, will facilitate a panel discussion.
He said that the issue of community addressed at the summit would apply to students.
"It is an ongoing issue of how much students want to be integrated into the larger community," Nalbandian said.
Kral said the summit was a way to improve the health of the Douglas County community. Other speakers will include Deborah Prothrow-Stith, assistant professor of public health at Harvard University; Peter Benson, president of the Search Institute; Robert Johnson, Charlton Manley, Inc; Karen Swisher, president of Haskell Indian Nations University and Deanell Reece Tacha of the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

Staff demands equal raises
Cássio Furtado
Kansan staff writer
Unclassified staff and teaching faculty should receive equal raises, members of the Unclassified Professional Staff Association told Provest David Shulenburger yesterday.
Earlier this month, Gov. Bill Graves recommended a 3 percent raise for more than 700 University of Kansas employees.
Graves recommended that faculty at the University get an increase between 6.1 and 6.2 percent, 3 percent more than unclassified staff.
Shulenburger said he had recommended an 8.2 percent raise to both faculty and unclassified staff for the 2002 fiscal year. The governor disagreed.
Last year, discrepancies were similar. Faculty got a 5.9 percent salary increase, while unclassified staff received 2.5 percent.
Unclassified staff include University administrators, program and department directors, researchers and other nonteaching faculty.
This raise is not the one the University or the regents wanted, Shulenburger said.
The difference in raise amounts caused the association to ask Shulenburger to explain the reasoning behind the decision to 120 members at a meeting yesterday in the Kansas Union.
Shulenburger said he thought a couple of factors influenced the governor's decision to not give the raise the University had requested.
Shulenburger said:
The governor wanted to devote more
Graves had limited resources and needed to honor Senate Bill 345.
monev to faculty salaries.
It was difficult to distinguish classified staff throughout Kansas and unclassified here at the University.
Kansas Senate Bill 345, passed in May 1999,
set aside about $26 million to increase salaries
for teaching faculty around the state, not
including unclassified staff.
But the University places the same value in all of its employees, Shulenburer said.
"I couldn't do my work and the University couldn't do its work without you," he said.
Explanations weren't enough for some association members.
"Nobody seems to willing to fight for us." Miller said.
Amy Miller, a groupware consultant at the computer center and unclassified staff member, said she was being left behind.
Sandra Wick, president of the association and associate director of the University Honors Program, said the association wasn't only concerned with the money, but also with feelings. Wick said that many members of the association thought they weren't feeling valued.
"It has become very demoralizing," Wick said.
Marlin Rein, director of governmental affairs and budget for the University, said legislators wouldn't start to look at the budget until the beginning of February.
"The University is working with the legislature on several issues," he said.

Senators, watchdog group want video game regulations
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Senators and a media watchdog group scolded video game makers yesterday for continuing to market violent games to children, but also credited the industry for getting nearly all its manufacturers to use a voluntary rating system.
After showing clips of video games in which players score by shooting, goring and dismembering life-like computer-generated characters, Sens. Joseph Lieberman, D-Conn.; Herb Kohl, D-Wis; and Sam Brownback, R-Kan., said they will introduce a bill next month that would punish companies that market such games to youngsters.
"Practically everybody in the industry still markets inappropriate games to kids, practically every retailer regularly sells these games to kids and practically all parents need to know more about the rating system," Kohl said at a news conference.
At the same time, he said, "Nearly ever game is rated, and the industry's voluntary rating system was recently hailed by the Federal Trade Commission as the best and most informative rating system in the entertainment industry."
David Walsh, president of the National Institute on Media and the Family, credited the video game industry both for rating games and for creating a review board to enforce voluntary industry guidelines on advertising. The industry began using voluntary ratings in 1994.
But Walsh's group, which released its fifth annual report card on video and computer games yesterday, gave retailers a near-failing grade for allowing children younger than 17 to buy video games rated for older players.
The report says FuncoLand and Target were the only two retail chains that consistently enforced policies prohibiting the sales of adult video games to children. Other stores made the same pledge but didn't enforce it, the report said.
"The industry has to follow through on its promise to stop marketing games with age-sensitive content to kids and
educate the public about which games are and are not safe for young people," Walsh said. "Retailers have to begin taking steps to prevent inappropriate games from making it into the hands of young players."
Hal Halpin, president of the Interactive Entertainment Merchants Association, said retailers share the same goals as the senators and can meet them without legislation.
"We're all in the same ballpark," Halpin said. "It's just a matter of taking the time to educate and train the people working in the stores and selling the video games."
'The report card and the senators' call for legislation comes three months after a Federal Trade Commission report said the video game, music and movie industries target and excessively market sexually explicit products to children.
"The FTC said they don't have the authority to take action against that." Lieberman said. "Our legislation will be narrowly focused to let them."
Doug Lowenstein, president of the Interactive Digital Software Association representing video game makers, said he believes the legislation will hamper the industry's desire to regulate itself and could violate the First Amendment.
"The bottom line is that we agree that companies need to be very cautious in how they market products intended for mature audiences. And through our own efforts, we've made significant efforts to meet that obligation," he said.
Lowenstein said only 7 percent of the 218 million video games sold in 2000 were rated "M." for mature audiences. Of the 20 best-selling video games last year, only one — *Diablo 2* — had an M rating. Three were rated for teens, and the rest were deemed suitable for all players.

Find the lost at campus sites
By Amanda Beglin
writer@kanson.com
Kansan staff writer
You forget a Spanish book underneath your desk. You rush across campus in 10 minutes to your next class, only to realize you left your purse in the dining area of the Kansas Union. You misplace your cell phone. KUID, bus pass or jacket.
Don't panic. Though the campus provides countless places for lost items to hide, there are 29 safe places on campus where possessions may be held.
Budig Hall, for example, has a lost and found in room 125 and a phone number to contact a staff member: 864-9849.
Items found anywhere in the Kansas Union can be turned in and claired at the candy counter on the fourth floor.
KU on Wheels, 410 Kansas Union, also has a lost and found for items left on its buses.
Sgt. Troy Mailen, KU Public Safety Office, said the lost and found at the public safety office, 302 Carruth-O'Leary Hall, served as temporary housing for the majority of unclaimed lost items.
"We're basically the hub," Mailed said.
"If people haven't claimed items at other lost and founds within a couple weeks, we usually get them."
Mailen said keys, wallets, cell phones and KUIDs were the items most often turned in and claimed.
When items are logged at the safety
office, a sometimes lengthy process ensues. First, officers check police records to see if the item was reported stolen by the Public Safety Office or Lawrence Police Department.
Items are then stored in lockers with card stubs that describe the item. If no one has claimed them within six months, they are donated to the Salvation Army.
Mailen said even cash was donated if not claimed.
"We've got $20 right now, and I took $311 to the Salyva Army in July," he said.
Bicycles unclaimed after six months are donated to bike shops in Lawrence and may be stripped for parts if they aren't in fair condition.
Keys are sent to area lock shops to be recut and reused, and credit cards are destroyed. Malen said.
Mailen said the safety office might decrease the holding time from six months to three because the current lengthy time period wasn't necessary.
"We have bedding from residence halls right now that we've had for months," Mailen said. "We get things like this every semester, and no one ever claims them."
Mailen said Lawrence police cooperated with the Public Safety Office when campus-related items were found off campus.
"They'll hold some things and try to contact people," Mailen said. "We give them University phone directories every semester."

New Georgia flag falls flat in looks
ATLANTA — Politically, Georgia's proposed new flag is being praised as a great compromise. Aesthetically, though, experts say it is a visual train wreck — a jumble of stars, banners, circles, words, numbers and other flags.
"My first impression is, this is just about the worst state flag," said Whitney Smith, director of the Flag Research Center in Winchester, Mass. "This is an example for the How Not to Design a Flag class. This is what you put on the board to get everyone to understand."
The flag was designed by Cecil Alexander, an 82-year-old Atlanta architect whose grandfather fought for the Confederacy.
To be fair, his assignment was daunting: Draw up a flag that satisfies Georgians who have fought bitterly for decades over the Confederate emblem's dominant place on the state banner.
Alexander told The Atlanta Journal- Constitution he wanted to show past flags in historical context and look to the future.
The dominant feature is the state seal, which bears, an arch, a soldier, a band of small circles, the date 1776, the state's name and a motto: "Wisdom, justice, moderation."
Below is a stripe of five other flags, including the one featuring the Confederate emblem that started the debate and the phrases "Georgia's history" and "In God we trust."
Georgia lawmakers, already scrambling to avoid dividing the state more deeply over the flag, might have more to worry about than losing a flag beauty contest: Their compromise might violate federal law.
A code for displaying the American flag, passed by Congress in 1976 specifies that the Stars and Stripes must be displayed on the left as viewers see it. On the Georgia proposal, the American flag sits on the right.

BRUTUS
This dipper was used to dig up rocks and dirt, called overburden, to expose the coal beds beneath the surface.
The teeth on the front side of the dipper dug 90 cubic yards of overburden, enough to fill three railroad cars.

Left: Big Brutus, the second-largest electric steam shovel in the world, sites in a field about two miles west of West Mineral. Brutus is 16 stories tall, about one and a half times as tall as Fraser Hall. The machines in the background are regular-sized steam shuttles that you might see at construction sites today. Visitors are allowed to climb to the top of Big Brutus' boom, weather permitting, to get a glimpse of what it's like at the top.

Inside Brutus' cavernous innards, these massive motors operated the cables that turned his dipper into a powerful digging machine.
h
umongous.
Make no mistake, Big Brutus is one big electric shovel.
That's the only way to describe Big Brutus. OK, there are others. Massive. Gargantuan. Monolithic.
Located near West Mineral, Brutus is one of those roadside attractions that is impossible to resist. After all, as Betty Becker, a West Mineral resident and 10-year employee at the Brutus visitor center, said, the big shovel is quite an attraction.
"You just don't go down the street and see one around every corner," she said.
Brutus is the second-largest electric shovel in the world. A symbol of southeast Kansas' mining heritage, Brutus weighs in at a stout 11 million pounds and stands 16 stories tall. And for local residents, the shovel is simply referred to as "he."
"Big Brutus is almost human to a lot of people," said Janet Britt, a West Mineral resident who has worked at the museum since its beginning 15 years ago. "When they talk about him, it's like he's real. We call him 'he' all the time."
While driving down the country road leading to West Mineral, "he" clearly stands out on the horizon. He seems incredibly out of place, stuck in the middle of a field near a town of about 100 residents in a sparsely populated area of the state. But he has good reason to be here.
Brutus, the only model 1650B shovel ever built, was commissioned by the Pittsburgh & Midway Coal Mining Company of Pittsburg and was constructed from June 1962 to May 1963 by a crew of 52 men of the Bucyrus Erie Company of Milwaukee. It took 150 railroad cars to transport all the components of the shovel, and construction costs topped $6.5 million.
In the late 1800s, coal mining progressed from mining in shafts to strip mining. European immigrants came to the area to work at the mines, mainly from the Balkan countries of Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania.
r&M used Brutus not to dig the coal but to remove the dirt and rocks, called overburden, covering the coal seams.
Brutus' dipier has a capacity of 90 cubic yards. In one fell scoop of Brutus' might, 150 tons of overburden can be removed,
Brutus moved at a clip of 0.22 miles per hour, powered by four sets of 'crawlers,' or tracks. Each pair of crawlers was powered by a 250 horsepower motor, and each crawler track is 5 feet 6 inches wide and weighs more than 2,000 pounds.
enough to fill three railroad cars. It took four 31/2-inch cables to raise the bucket, powered by eight 500-horsepower motors.
The power to operate Brutus came from a plant power inside his core that provided 15,000 horsepower under peak loads, the equivalent to power used by a town of 15,000.
"It was costing more to wash the coal they were mining than they could sell it for," Becker said. "Plus pollution laws were getting scriter. After they shut him down, he just sat there for 11 years out in the field."
Brutus steamrolled along until April 1974, when he became too inefficient to operate. His last electric bill was $27,000, and that was just for the last month.
After Brutus did his dirty work, 120-ton trucks were called in to remove the coal.
The company retired Brutus right where he sat, and he still sits there today. But for years after his retirement, locals became curious about the big fellow.
They climbed and visited him, until Brit and other locals decided to do something about it. They started Big Brutus Inc., paving the way for tens of thousands of people to visit the monolithic apparatus.
"People used to climb over the fence to see him." Becker said.
"Pittsburg & Midway donated him, but he was all dirty," Becker said. "We just started out with a card table and a cigar box in 1985 and progressed to a little metal building and into what we have today."
Brutus was so dirty that P&M donated $100,000 for restoration work. Instantly, dozens of volunteers and locals spent countless hours cleaning and fixing up the old boy.
On July 13, 1985, then-Kansas governor John Carlin and the president of P&M, Richard M. Holsten, dedicated the shovel as "Big Brutus, a museum and memorial dedicated to the rich coal mining history in southeast Kansas."
In September of 1987, the American Society of Mechanical Engineers designated Brutus a Regional Historic Mechanical Engineering Landmark, only the 10th machine so dubbed since 1971.
Today, Big Brutus and his museum continue to grow rapidly. The visitors' center houses a museum and gift shop, and an expansion is coming this spring. Becker said the museum, built in 1899, owed its existence to Brutus's popularity

"We're a nonprofit organization," she said. "All the money taken in goes right back into upkeep and expansion of Brutus."
"It's something they'll only see once," Britt said. "There's not too many like him left. Usually people come back and say, 'Oh, yeah, it was definitely worth it.'"
All the effort into Brutus' salvation has paid off. Thousands of people visit Brutus each year, and Britt said in 2000, people from all 50 states and more than 30 foreign countries visited little West Mineral to get a glimpse of the monster.
Britt said some visitors came as skeptics but left as believers.
"Sometimes you'll see them pause at the top of the hill when they get down beside him," she said. "You know they're getting struck by the size."
Besides visitors from all around the world, Brutus attracts school groups, car and motorcycle clubs and hordes of local fans.
"Most visitors are repeat visitors," Becker said. "Word of mouth is our best source. People will come back after four or five years and tell us what has changed since their last visit."
After visiting the big guy, it's easy to see why he impresses so many people. After all, Britt said, he's one of a kind.

K-State looks for rare victory at fieldhouse
By Zac Hunter sports@kansan.com kansas sportwriters

The Sunflower Showdown has turned into the Sunflower beat down during the last 10 years.
It's not as if the all-time series is incredibly close. Kansas leads 158-88, but the rivalry had balance at various points during the series. It is painfully obvious that the Jayhawks (16-1, 5-0) own Kansas State (8-8, 2-3). The Wildcats have won just twice in the series since 1990, and have only won 14 times in the past 20 years, compared to 43 wins for the Hawks.
"We all have a sense of urgency to get this thing turned around," said K-State coach Jim Wooldridge. "Everybody that supports Kansas State and our basketball program would love to see us beat Kansas as soon as possible."
The 3 p.m. tip-off tomorrow in Allen Fieldhouse will be K-State's third straight game against ranked teams. After demolishing Missouri 80-59, K-State managed to ruin its bid for two straight wins when it couldn't keep its overtime lead in the final minutes of the Oklahoma game.
Siebrandt, K-State's second leading scorer at just less than 11 points, is hitting nearly 50 percent of his shots.
"It was a hard loss, but we have had a lot of hard losses and this team has always bounced back," sophomore forward Matt Siebrandt said.
Wooldridge said the Wildcats directed their focus on the Jayhawks, and they had several good days of practice.
"I don't see any ill effects from the OU game at this point," he said.
The Wildcats should hope it stays that way. Road games have not been kind to them this season and the final game of the difficult three-game stretch is on the road. They will have to win in one of the most hostile environments in the conference.
"I have asked the players on our team that have been to Allen Fieldhouse to help all of us handle what they know is a great environment and help us learn what to expect when we get over there." Wooldridge said. "Until the action is taking place, it's hard to say how the players are going to react to it."
'Hawks wary of upset
K-State has only one road victory this season, which came at the expense of Texas A&M. The Wildcats' road defeats, however, have come at a faster clip, including a 10-point loss at Wichita State.
If the Wildcats are going to pull the upset, they will have to do it without much firepower. K-State doesn't suit one player that is averaging more than 13 points, which makes holding down Kansas' potent offense a matter of extreme importance.
"They get a lot of buckets off fast breaks," said junior guard Larry Reid. "I think if we make them play a half-court game, then we can stay in the game." — Edited by Courtney Craigmile

Its record might not show it, but Kansas State has been a team of killers this season. No. 4 Kansas will try to avoid being the Wildcats' latest victim tomorrow at 3 p.m. in Allen Fieldhouse.
K-State beat then-No. 19 Iowa on Dec. 23 and destroyed then-No. 20 Missouri 80-59 on Jan. 16. The Wildcats eventually lost to No. 22 Oklahoma by one point last weekend. That said, Kansas (16-1 overall and 5-0 in the Big 12 Conference) is understandably concerned.
"They play well against big teams," sophomore forward Drew Gooden said. "It'll be a battle and they'll compete."
KState's record doesn't show its success (8-8, 2-3), but coach Roy Williams said his team is well aware that the Wildcats can't be taken lightly.
"I've got to make sure that my guys take 'em seriously," he said. "You'd have to ask Quin (Snyder, Missouri coach) for sure, but everybody that I've talked to said that Missouri didn't take them seriously. My guess is Iowa didn't take them very seriously. That's what all of the reports said and you saw what happened to both of those teams. We've got to be ready to play."
During the last seven years, the Jayhawks have normally entered K-State games ready to play. A string of 19 wins is proof of that, but K-State's last win against their rivals could not have been bigger. The Wildcats upset No. 1 Kansas 86-4 on Jan. 17, 1994, in Allen Fieldhouse.
This K-State team could pull off a feat similar to that. This season's Wildcats are not like last year's; they walk with a more confident swagger and have some results to stand behind.
"I see a much different confidence right now than when I saw a little glimpse of their play earlier in the season." Williams said. Sure, K-State's newly acquired confidence is a concern for Kansas, but confidence is something the Jayhawks will be playing with in the game as well. Not only have the Jayhawks dominated the series for the last decade, but they've been dominating opponents since the conference season began.
during narrow victories at Oklahoma and Colorado.
The 'Hawks are in the midst of a nine-game winning streak. They've totally dominated some opponents and they've seemingly played with ice in their veins
Sophomore forward Nick Collison said he expected the team's confidence to continue to show.
"We're real confident that we can play with anybody and we can put up pretty big numbers against anybody," Collison said. "But there's a lot of big, strong guys out there in the league that we haven't faced yet, and they're going to be real tough to play
against.
"We'll take the success that we've got right now, take it in stride, but we've got to come ready to play every night." Kansas basketball notes
■ Kansas is 8-0 against K-State since the Big 12 Conference was formed in 1996-97.
Statistically, Kansas enters tomorrow's game averaging 65 points while K-State averages 64. The Jayhawks also average 21 assists, compared to the

Canadian rowers bring experience to squad
By Jay Mullinix

Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas rowing team includes six Canadians, all from Ontario. From left to right: Bath Hickey, Port Colborne freshman; Galina Levin, St. Catharines sophomore; Hayley Dool, St. Catharines freshman; Jen Van Ruyven, St. Catharines sophomore; Laura Adamson, Brockville freshman; and Christine Corbett, St. Catharines freshman have transitioned from Canada, a rowers' mecca, to Kansas where lakes and rivers are primarily used for fishing. Photo by Thad Allender/KANSAN
All it took was one word for Jen Van Ruyen's biggest fear to come true. It's not a big word, but for the St. Catharines, Ontario, sophomore, saying "y'all" is the one American habit she had vowed never to fall into. So to find herself saying it by the end of her freshman year proved quite a shock.
"It was so embarrassing since it was the only thing I didn't ever want to start saying. I think it was the low point of my life," she said lokingly.
Van Ryven is not alone, however, in her fight against American idiosyncrasies. She is one of six women on the varsity rowing squad who half from Ontario. Joining her are Galina Levin, St. Catharines sophomore; Laura Adamson, Brockville freshman; Christine Corbett and Hayley Dool; both St. Catharines freshmen; and B蒂克 Hiekov Port Colborne freshman.
The group is bringing more to the table than just northern accents. Although most Kansas rowers don't become involved in the sport until reaching college, experience is rich among this group. Coming from a Canadian province where the sport is quite prominent, the group holds a combined 27 years of previous experience.
"Back home everybody rows, and they get started pretty young," Dool said. "Many of the coaches have been with the
national teams and have worked internationally, so it's taken real seriously.
Honing their abilities in such an atmosphere has allowed the group, though all underclassmen, to immediately come in on the varsity team and make an impact.
"It's really neat to be able to bring our knowledge in right away, especially since having experience does so much to make a boat stronger. Just from last year our times have gone down tremendously, and I hope that we've all played a part in that,"
Guest Columnist
said Hickey.
Not only does their collective knowledge benefit the team on the water, said assistant coach Heather Galvin, but it serves as a great example for other rowers who are new to the sport.
"They really help to set the bar for everyone else, especially the walk-ons and underclassmen because they can see girls who have a background in it and what it should look like," she said.
Because their contributions to the team have come so quickly, the group has an opportunity to help build the foundation of a rowing team that is quickly becoming a top program. Rowing became a varsity sport at Kansas in 1995, and the Jayhawks have been ranked in the national polls the last two seasons.
"There are schools who have had programs for decades and aren't where Kansas is, and they've only had one for six years," Corbett said. "So knowing how far it has come and how we can build on that, it's awesome to think where this team can be in a few years, because we're only underclassmen, and we are going to get better."
Such accomplishments are only perfectly in line with expectations. Galvin said.
"We brought them here because we think they can help take us to that next level," she said. "And this is a young team, so the ability is there to take some big strides in the near future."

Columnist baseball star pool assets
Last month professional baseball player Alex Rodriguez signed a 10-year, $252 million contract with the Texas Rangers. Although nothing new to professional athletics, large contracts have recently risen to tremendous heights. For some fans, these contracts represent all that is wrong with sports. For others, big contracts prove to be equitable compensation for years of dedication and hard work. Until several weeks ago, this columnist was on the side of the former. But then I, too, received a big dollar contract, changing my opinion and lifestyle forever — actually, just one long day.
Upon taking a job as a columnist at the Kansan, I was unaware I would receive any pay. I figured writing itself was payment enough. But I must confess when I learned I would receive $5 a column, well, let's just say the celebration began. Ready to spend some of my newfound treasure chest, I was now able to buy the finest. And with boxed wine in one arm and a carton of Kools in the other, I returned home a different man. Finding it now impossible to connect with my unemployed and annoyingly tasteless friends, I embarked on a journey to find new ones — people who, like me, were swimming in money.
That's when I called all-star Alex Rodriguez, thinking he, too, might need someone to spend his money with. He agreed to meet me immediately at the Chili's on Iowa. I guess he was able to overlook my anonymity and the distance between his home and Lawrence in the interest of a free Awesome Blossom. Anyhow, once he arrived, I suggested we relieve ourselves of our monetary burdens by going out and spending every last cent of our new wealth. If we pooled our money, I proposed, we would have even more combined spending power; a total of $252,000,035. "Wow, that really is a lot when you add it together," all-star Alex Rodriguez screeched in jubilation. "Let's go buy some stuff!"
All-star Alex Rodriguez, convinced I was a financial genius, left it to me to make the spending decisions. So, I started thinking about what a baseball star and high-dollar collegiate columnist would want to buy with unlimited funds. Unfortunately, the Ferrari dealer in Lawrence closed last month. The Ford dealer, however, still had in stock the yellow '86 Aerostar I'd had my eye on for months. They even had a red one that all-star Alex Rodriguez liked. We were sold. With our first purchase, our new total was $251,996,435. Seeing this might be a long day, and that I had already secured my dream car, I proposed we give the rest to charity. All-star Alex Rodriguez, however, wanted to do something more creative than the big check and usual photo-op. Nonetheless, buying 21 million Ace of Base CDs, and dropping them across the Midwest from a helicopter, seemed less like charity and more like a felony to me. At this point, I realized that maybe all-star Alex Rodriguez and I were just too different to really be friends. "Speeding" off in his new car, I waved goodbye to a good person, tragically ruined by the influences of wealth and Euro-pop.
Although I may bring in a pretty sweet paycheek each week for my column, he, quite frankly, makes a bit more. A lot more. Actually, I didn't realize how much more until I sat down and compared the two numbers five and 252,000,000. I guess I really don't make that much now that I think about it. Oh, well. I guess the rich are different — they like Ace of Base. And I guess I will have to be content with my $5 and sweet yellow Ford. But I suppose I did learn one important thing from my adventure with all-star Alex Rodriguez: Even obscenely wealthy athletic stars are only as wealthy as their taste in music.

Despite failures Internet firms vie for Sundance hits
The Associated Press
PARK CITY, Utah — Internet companies swarmed the Sundance Film Festival last year, where they snapped up short movies and pitched the Web as the next big thing in film distribution.
This year, after many Internet firms folded or merged and Web investment dried up, some of the survivors are back at Sundance, still talking up the Web as an entertainment conduit, but in more realistic tones.
Too many companies leapt in too quickly, raising cash and setting up elaborate Web sites filled with short films and other entertainment, counting on advertising revenue that never materialized.
Some high-profile Web efforts never even got off the ground, such as Pop.com, whose partners included Steven Spielberg and Ron Howard. Pop.com's founders scrapped the entertainment Web site last September after nearly a year of planning.
"These companies came out of the woodwork and said, 'We'll put some short-form entertainment on the Web, sell ads and somehow we'll make money,'" said Jannat Gargi, vice president of acquisitions and development for AtomFilms, which distributes short movies on the Internet and such outlets as television and airlines.
AtomFilms, which recently merged with Shockwave.com, is trolling Sundance for new films and showing off movies already in its library.
Despite the Internet shakeout over the last year, filmmakers remain confident that the Web will help their movies reach wider audiences.
Jennifer Arnold said the exposure her short film The Mullet Chronicles receives as part of the Sundance online festival will draw attention to an hourlong version of the documentary she plans to complete this spring.
The online festival, which runs through late February, was started to broaden Sundance's audience via the Internet. About 20 short films can be viewed on the Web.
"There already is an ample market for us," said Jennifer Pesi-Kelly, marketing director for Sightsound.com, which rents and sells full-length movies over the Internet.
The company's films are especially popular on college campuses, where many dorms already are wired for high-speed Internet access.
"Students are definitely some of our early supporters," PesciKelly said. "They use their computers as entertainment centers in the dorms, and more and more people will do the same in their homes in the future."

Bv William J. Kole
Associated Press Writer
HARTFORD, Conn. — They were colleagues, confidantes, the best of friends. But you'd never know it from Paul Gaugin's unflattering portraits of his painting buddy.
One depicts Meyer de Haan as a smirking devil clutching a writhing serpent. Another paints the Dutchman as a yellow-eyed fox pawing a naked young girl. Here's de Haun hunched demonically over a bowl of fruit. There's de Haan leering at two Tahitian beauties easily half his age.
through Sunday, April 29.
With friends like that, who needs enemies?
That's exactly the point of "Gauguin's Nirvana: Painters at Le Pouldu 1889-90," an astonishing new exhibition of works by the odd couple of the Post-Impressionist movement. It opens today at Hartford's Wadsworth Atheneum and runs
More than 40 Gauguin and de Haan paintings, drawings, prints and sculpture — culled from collections around the world — capture perfectly the petty jealousies and rivalries that simmered below the surface of a mutually inspiring friendship.
Most Gauguin shows focus on his last days in French Polynesia, where he died in 1903 still seeking the meaning of life and the paradise he discovered there.
Gauguin was already well-established and mixed with people like Vincent van Gogh, who once confessed to Gauguin. "I find my own artistic ideas excessively commonplace in comparison with yours." Yet he didn't have much money to show for his fame.
De Haan's celebrity was mostly confined to his native Netherlands, but he was wealthy enough to drop what he was doing, become Gauguin's student
and pay their bills.
Master and pupil worked side by side on an eclectic jumble of portraits, still-lives and landscapes, experimenting with a bold new palette of colors. Often, they differed vastly in interpreting the identical scene. While each painted "The Valley of Kerzelle," de Haan zoomed in on the lavender vineyards; Gauguin took a more distant approach, placing a solitary figure in the foreground.
Nearly a dozen Gauguin works seem to portray de Haan as a pervert.
In "The Loss of Virginity," a jarring oil on canvas, a nude reclines on her back in a rolling coastal field done up in almost neon hues of red, green and blue. She holds a lily in one hand; the other pets the narrow-eyed fox pawing her bosom. The beast's slanted eyes and pointed ears are unmistakably de Haan's.
The show's title work, "Nirvana",
shows de Haan, his face a demonic
mask, gripping a golden snake whose coils spell out G, the first letter of Gauguin's signature. Two female nudes, representing life and death, stretch languidly in the background; in the foreground floats the word "Nirvana," as if to suggest that de Haan, no mere mortal, had achieved a Buddhist oneness with the universe.
Many critics disagree over whether Gauguin intended to pay homage to de Haan's wisdom or ridicule him for his sexual conquests. Probably, he meant to do both.
In any case, Gauguin exacted sweet revenge when he left France for Polynesia and the tropical burst of creativity that would immortalize him.
Among the many grand works he executed there was an oil-on-canvas of two voluptuous Tahitan nudes reclining on a beach. The title — or was it merely a taunt? — reads simply: "Are You Jealous?"

Women aim for win against Wildcats to end losing streak

Kansas sportswriter
The Kansas women's basketball team is right back where it was two weeks ago — desperately in need of a win and preparing to face Kansas State.
The 'Hawks (7-10 overall and 1-5 in the Big 12) upended the Wildcats 78-67 two weeks ago in Allen Fieldhouse and snapped a four-game losing streak.
Tomorrow, the Jayhawks tip off again against K-State (11-6, 1-5) at 7 p.m. in Manhattan at Bramlage Coliseum, looking to break a three-game losing streak and regain some of their shattered confidence.
"Obviously we hope that there's going to be a turnaround, particularly with these next two games — two games that we can win," said coach Marian Washington. "But we can't win if we just focus on what has happened thus far. We can't go to Manhattan with our heads down, there's just no way. So we've got to find a way to bounce back."
If the Jayhawks are going to bounce back this season, tomorrow is the time to do it because the Wildcats, along with Oklahoma State, are tied with Kansas for last place in the Big 12.
“It’s tough when you think about the season as a lump because we haven’t won many ball games, and it’s tough after each and every loss,” said senior guard Jennifer Jackson.
Unlike Wednesday's pairing with No. 12 Oklahoma, Kansas is, on paper, almost evenly matched with K-State. Both teams score about 70 points, grab roughly 35 boards and shoot around 45 percent from the field each game.
And both teams rely on a group of three players to lead the way — both groups average about 41 points, bring down about 17 rebounds and shoot about 46 percent.
K-State relies on freshman forward Nicole Ohilde, senior guard Kim Woodlee and junior guard Kristin Rethman to contribute most of the points for the Wildcat offensive attack. And it's been the same story for the Jayhawks since the K-State game two weeks ago — seniors Jackson, Brooke Reves and Jaclyn Johnson have led the way, urging other players to step up to the line and play with intensity.
"The one thing that I'm
trying to keep them focused on is that they are working hard to do their part." Washington said about the seniors. "It's just frustrating that we can't get a few more players to step up for us."
With the top scorers on each side evenly matched, the game could come down to the intangibles — things such as intensity and desire that don't show up on the box score but have plagued the Javhawks all season.
"Kansas State is a totally
different ball club on their home floor and we're going to have to go in there extremely focused and play hard," Jackson said. "I think that's what we did last time we played them, and hopefully we're going to go in there and have the same kind of effort from everybody."

Brock Teddleton, Jawad Pearson and Joey Guzman all stand taller than 6-feet-4 and tin the scales
4 and tip the scales at 275 pounds.
KU
Teddleton entered this past year as a pre-season NJCAA All-American at Coffee ville Com m uni y
College, but a knee injury forced him to miss the entire season. He originally committed to play at Missouri, but coach Larry Smith's firing caused him to rethink his decision. He runs well for an offensive lineman and can bench press more than 300 pounds. Teddleton chose Kansas instead of Arkansas and Louisiana State, said Jon Kirby of MOKANFootball.com.
Pearson comes to the Midwest from Rancho Cucamonga, Calif., where he was a first-town All-Conference selection at Chaffey College. Playing left tackle for a squad loaded with Division I talent, Pearson used his long reach to take advantage of opposing defenders, said Kevin Lustgarten of JCFootball.com. Pearson plays the same position vacated by John Oddonetto, who was a stalwart from the left side of the line for the past two seasons.
Guzman, an outstanding defensive tackle from Tulsa (Okla.) Union High School, was recruited as an offensive lineman. He has canceled his scheduled visit to Missouri after his weekend visit to Lawrence in early January. Guzman, who had visited Kansas State and Texas Christian, delighted the Kansas coaching staff as he made his verbal commitment to sign with the Javhawks.
in-state standout and Newton linebacker Ted Sims picked K-State instead of Kansas.
Brian Luke, quarterback, Walnut Creek. Calif.
The Jayhawks did pick up four more verbal commitments Wednesday. The coaching staff continued its recruiting success outside Kansas borders, luring players from California, Florida and Texas.
Jeremy Freeman, linebacker,
Diablo, Texas.
The 6-3, 215-pounder led his high school team to the California Northern state title game, throwing for more than 2,800 passing yards in the process. Luke, a classic drop-back passer, had scholarship offers from Illinois and San Jose State. He committed to Kansas two days after his official visit last weekend.
Freeman missed a couple of games this season because of injury, but college scouts liked the game tape they saw of him. He also played tight end, but will be used strictly as a linebacker in coach Terry Allen's system. He chose Kansas instead of Baylor and Louisiana Tech.
Ronnie Amadi, cornerback, Alief, Texas.
Amadi, who was sought after by Missouri, Iowa and Tulane, will come to Kansas with two impressive athletic numbers. He runs the 40-yard dash in 4.5 seconds and sports a 36-inch vertical jump. His identical twin brother, Donnie, is also being courted by Kansas.
■ Keith Watts, defensive end, Seffner, Fla.
The 6-3, 250-pound Watts played middle linebacker this past season. With a 4.7-second time in the 40-yard dash, he runs well for his size. He gave Kansas the nod instead of North Carolina State. He committed to coach Allen in person from his Florida home.

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK
Kirk Hinrich
Team; Men's basketball
Position: Point guard
Year in school: Sophomore
Height: 6-foot-3 inches
Hometown: Sioux City, Iowa
Birthdate: Jan. 2, 1981
Accomplishment: Hinrich dished out 21 assists in two games against Texas A&M and Colorado. He also chipped in 17 points against the two Big 12 Conference teams.
ALEXANDER HENRY
KU
Hinrich's 11 assists against Colorado on Monday tied his career high. Assisting teammates is nothing new for the sophomore—he tallied 123 assists last year, fourthmost assists ever by a Jayhawk freshman. His career total is 246, which ranks him 19th on the all-time Kansas list. He also averages seven assists this year.
Hinrich barely missed a double-double against the Buffaloales, finishing with nine points. He scored seven of those points in Kansas' late run, including a threepointer and ensuing lay-in that sealed the victory.
Against Texas A&M,
Himrich registered 10 assists,
seven points and seven
rebounds. He leads
Jayhawk regulars with 53.3
percent shooting from
behind the arc, and ranks
17th on the career three-
point field goal chart with 49.
Honorable mention:
Jeff Boschee. The junior guard scored five three-pointers in ten attempts en route to 14 points against Colorado. He also scored 14 points against Texas A&M.
Jennifer Foster. The junior track member won the shot put and placed sixth at the Missouri Indoor Invittational a week ago.
Andy Morris. The senior pentathlete tallied 3,891 points in the pentathalon at the Missouri Indoor Invitational, setting a school record.
Nick Collison. The sophomore forward scored 34 points in two games last week.
Guards: Kansas guards Jeff Boschee and Kirk Hinch are playing as well as they have all season, K-State point guard Larry Reid will have a hard time containing Hinch, who has 30 assists in the last three games. Advantage: Kansas

**Forwards:** The frontout tandem of Drew Gooden and Nick Collison seems nearly unstoppable at this point. The two are combining for nearly 30 points, and are hitting better than 50 percent of their shots. The Wildcats' Matt Siebrandt and Travis Reynolds aren't quite as good, combining for only 20 points. Advantage: Kansas
The Jayhawks weathered a flurry of emotion by both the Colorado players and fans, and managed to pull out the 85-75 win.

Alumni among dead in plane crash
By Chris Wristen writer@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
Ten people associated with the Oklahoma State University basketball team, including two players and two University of Kansas graduates, died in a plane crash in Byers, Colo., Saturday night, officials said.
Oklahoma State associate athletics director Steve Buzzard confirmed that Will Hancock, media relations coordinator, and athletic trainer Brian Luinstra, both University of Kansas graduates, were killed in the crash.
The other victims of the crash that occurred about 40 miles south of Denver were Oklahoma State players Nate Fleming and Dan Lawson, director of basketball operations Pat Noyes, student manager Jared Weiberg,
broadcast engineer Kendall Durfey, broadcaster Bill Teegins, pilot Denver Mills and co-pilot Bjorn Fallstrom.
Hancock graduated from the University of Kansas in 1991 and was the son of NCAA Tournament director Bill Hancock. He had spent five years at his post at Kearnahma State where he was married to the women's soccer coach Karen Hancock.
Mitch Germann, Kansas' assistant sports information director in charge of men's basketball, said Hancock was one of the most respected sports information directors in the Big 12 Conference.
"He was a great guy and was well respected throughout the league for doing a real good job," Germann said. "I just feel horrible for both of these guys' families. They will definitely be

think we're still in shock at this point." Also shocked was Kansas basketball coach Roy Williams, whose Jayhawks made a similar return flight from Colorado last Monday.
"I was deeply saddened after hearing of the travedy last night." Williams
said in a prepared statement. "I know Bill and Nicki Hancock personally, and there's nothing that can be said at this time that can ease their pain. That's the most difficult part for everyone involved."
Wake Forest sports information director Dean Buchan, a former sports information director at Kansas, said he also was stunned by the accident.
He worked with Hancock in Buchan's first year at Kansas but remained in contact after Hancock left for Oklahoma State.
"At his job, he was one of the best in the country," Buchan said. "The main thing about him, though, is that you'd never find a single person anywhere who could have a single bad thing to say about him. People
Influenza strikes campus suddenly
See POOR on page 5A
by Livi Regenbaum writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
The stomach flu has spread across the University of Kansas.
And the results are gruesome at Battenfeld Scholarship Hall, where 40 out of 48 residents have been infected with the flu.
Justin Birge, Battenfeld president and Omaha, Neb., senior, was surprised by the number of people sick.
"I have never seen such a spread of the stomach flu at the hall in the past four years that I have lived here," Birge said.
Birge said residents of the hall began getting sick last week, and two were sent to Lawrence Memorial Hospital for treatment.

Symptoms of influenza include:
■ nausea
■ vomiting

Randall Rock, physician at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said the stomach flu, known as gastroenteritis, is different from the common flu, known as influenza.
"Influenza is a respiratory illness and it is treated differently from the stomach flu," he said.
Rock said flu shots could prevent students from developing influenza, but they did not prevent the stomach flu.
Vaccines for influenza are available at Watkins for $5.
"Those with the stomach flu should drink plenty of clear liquids," Rock said. "This is the first step in the stage of recovery."
Rock advised students who have the stomach flu to avoid becoming dehydrated.
Symptoms of the stomach flu include vomiting, diarrhea, fever and nausea.
Derrick Birdsell, Omaha, Neb., sophomore and a Battenfeld resident, said the stomach flu kept him in bed for an entire day.
Rock said students who do not feel better should go to Watkins.
Rock said the stomach flu could be spread by sharing food, drinks and not properly washing one's hands.
"Most of the residents in the hall experienced symptoms that lasted from nine to 24 hours." Birdsell said.

JAZZHAUS JAM
Bar lets dreamers jam
Jazzhaus allows anyone to play
By Sarah Smarsh

Kansan staff writer
At this very moment, a musician somewhere in Lawrence is probably having that fantasy again.
He will walk on the stage, plug in his guitar, let a chord rip through the amplifier and electrify an audience of screaming, adoring fans.
But reality will likely crash the mental concert. The aspiring musician will sigh as he realizes he'll never have a reason to take his six-string beyond his bedroom door.
He should think again.
line Jazzhaus. 926 1/2 Massachusetts St., provides a performance forum for amateur and experienced musicians alike. The Open Blues Jam, held Mondays at 10:30 p.m., gives aspiring Janis Joplins or Stevie Ray Vaughns a chance to take the stage.
Participants bring their instruments — saxophones, drum sticks, vocal chords — and put their names on a list at the door. Once their names are called, they join the Spanktones, the house band on Monday nights, for at least a couple of songs.
JESSICA HOLLAND
"We like to do it so people who wouldn't normally have a chance to perform can live their fantasy," said Guy Messenger, event organizer and guitarist for the Spanktones.
Eve Bradley, Shreveport, La. senior, saw a flier for the jam and soon made her first performance at the Jazzhaus.

Bradley, who raps and freestyles, was happy to find an atmosphere open to all sorts of talents.
Bradley, who is now working on a demo tape, said the crowd's response was "all positive," particularly because of the unique nature of her performance.
"Being able to express yourself to the music—I can't really explain it," Bradley said. "It's just great."
Not everyone at the jam is new to performing. Mike Cibura, Chicago freshman, played guitar with a band in high school and has performed at other Lawrence venues.
"People listen to the words because of the music," Bradley said. "I like it when people feel what I'm saying."
He said he considered the Jazzhaus a place to improve his skills and to have fun.
Bradley said that rapping with a live band enhanced her artistic message.
"No one ever comes in here and raps" she said
"It just makes you able to play better with other people," Cibura said. "I come because I just love to play."
The Open Blues Jam provides a unique chance for performers, but it also offers an equally unusual opportunity for those seeking entertainment
Lindsay Crucker, Chicago freshman, and Katy Darnaby, Deerfield, Ill., freshman, go to the Jazzhaus for the laid-back vibe.
JAZZHAUS
What's happening: Open Blues Jam, a performance opportunity for musicians of all experience levels, at 10:30 p.m. every Monday at the Jazzhaus, 926 1/2 Massachusetts St.
"For a night when you don't want to dance, it's nice to just get out with your friends and not be cooped up somewhere," Darnaby said. "We come here, like, once or twice a week."
Dash Williamson, drummer for the Spanktones, said Monday was the best night of the week at the Jazzhaus.
Messenger said the assortment of
"I look forward to Mondays, just to play with so many walks of musicians — and have fun." Williamson said.

musicians demonstrate a variety of skill levels.
"I've seen some people who don't really realize that people are covering their ears," Messenger said with a laugh. "But it's OK; anything goes. This is the place to do your bad singing."
Mark Smith, also a guitarist for the Spanktones, said the non-judgmental environment gave way to great things.
"This is democracy in action," Smith said. "I love it when the chemistry happens, when it's totally unplanned and it comes together well. All of a sudden, you have magic moments."

Students feel shockwaves of India quake
By J. R. Mendoza
Kansan wire editor
Fear gripped Ritika Bhatnagar Friday when she turned on her television and found out an earthquake had hit near her family's home in India.
To her relief, her father called and told her that he, her mother and sister were not injured in the quake.
"But their house is cracked up, and they couldn't get out of their house. Now, they're outside in camps," said Bhatnagar, Ahmedabad, India, senior.
More than 6,000 bodies had been found since Friday's quake, and the death toll was expected to go much higher. Some authorities estimated it would reach 16,000 or more. A rescue official said there could be up to 30,000 dead in one town alone. More than 14,500 have been injured, the Indian national government said.
Exhausted searchers used everything from sophisticated rock-cutting tools to their bare hands to claw through rubble yesterday, hoping to find survivors lingering among the thousands believed buried by western India's massive earthquake.
The University of Kansas has about 175 students from India and about 50 students of Indian descent, said Giri Gokulrangan, president of the KU Cultural India Club and Chennai, India, graduate student.
"I was relieved to hear they were OK," she said. "But there's not electricity, transportation or water. It's just terrible."
At first, Bhatnagar said she worried when she was unable to get through to her family in India because phone lines were down.
Arwind Manohar, Nairobi, Kenya, junior, has relatives who live in New Delhi, the capital of India. None of them was injured, but Manohar said they were in shock because of the earthquake's devastation.
Friday's magnitude 7.9 quake — India's strongest in more than 50 years — shook the earth for more than 1,200 miles and was felt in Nepal, Bangladesh and Pakistan, where 10 people were crushed in their houses.
By Sunday, foreign aid was pouring in: Cranes, generators, cutting tools, sniffer dogs, seismic monitors and cameras attached to poles had begun to arrive along with teams of rescuers from places such as Switzerland, the United Kingdom and Turkey.
Manohar said more than anything, it was hard not being able to communicate easily with his relatives in New Delhi.
"Getting the chance to talk to them was barely possible," he said.

KU senior arrested on battery charges
A female KU student was booked into the Douglas County Jail at 3:09 a.m. Friday on charges of battery on a law enforcement officer and disorderly conduct.
Lawrence police Sgt. Mike Pattrick said an officer had pulled over a car and suspected that the driver was under the influence. Another officer armed and the passenger was verbally belligerent with the officer, Pattrick said. The passenger appeared intoxicated, police said.
The officer told the passenger to leave the area, Patrick said, and as she walked away, she threw an object at the officer. He was not hurt, but the student was arrested.
KU moves up in ranks for research spending
The passenger, Melissa A. McCray,
Lawrence senior, was released from the
jail Friday afternoon on a $500 bond.
A survey just released by the National Science Foundation reported that the University of Kansas had the second largest jump of any university in its research spending in 1999.
The University ranked 83rd out of 500 universities after ranking 93rd the previous year, and moved up seven places to rank 53rd among public schools.
"Our improvement in the national rankings not only speaks highly of the level of research being conducted at the University of Kansas, it also demonstrates that we are moving toward our goal of being among the top 25 public research institutions in the nation," Chancellor Robert Hemenway said in a statement.
Arizona State University moved the highest number of places, jumping 14 spots to be ranked 94th overall.

Phi Kappa Psi chapter celebrates its founding
The Kansas Alpha Chapter of Phi Kappa Pi Fraternity will celebrate the 125th anniversary of its founding at the University of Kansas Saturday, Feb. 17.
Phi Kappa Psi was initially founded at Jefferson College, Penn., as a brotherhood called "The Great Joy of Service"
during a typhoid fever epidemic in 1852. It was the 17th fraternity to be established in the nation.
The KU chapter became the 37th Phi Kappa Psi Chapter to be set up on Feb. 19, 1876, exactly 24 years after the initial founding. It was founded by a group of local students, including Frank O. Marvin, who was later chancellor of the University.
The anniversary will be celebrated with social events at the chapter house and a dinner at the Adams Alumni Center. John Zielgelmeyer, alumni advisor for Phi Kappa Psi at KU, said there would be an open house from noon until 5 p.m. for members and alumni.
"There are around 300 living alumni from this chapter alone," Ziegelmeyer said.
Formal guests who will attend include the national president and vice-president of the national organization, as well as the current and former executive director of the organization.

Dangerous streets: Chicago accidents rise
CHICAGO — Speeding toward a disabled car on a Chicago expressway, state trooper Mike Karpinski points to a motorist cutting in front of him, apparently oblivious to his cruiser's flashing emerency lights and blaring siren.
"Look at that," he says. "You can count on one hand the number of cars that did the right thing. And we just went by, what, 300 cars?"
Consider what has happened in the Chicago area in little more than a month.
Dec. 23, Chicago Fire Department Lt. Scott Gillen was killed by a car that authorities say roared past flares and emergency lights at the scene of an accident and crushed him against the back of a fire truck.
Days later a Kankakee County sheriff's deputy was critically injured while helping a tow truck driver on the side of a road. And, in separate incidents in a span of 12 hours, another Chicago firefighter and a paramedic also were hit by vehicles.
Sundance Film Festival honors top film entries
Sundance jurors gave the documentary grand jury prize to Southern Comfort, an intimate portrait of a dying female-to-male transsexual and his romance with a male-to-female transsexual.
PARK CITY, Utah — The Believer, a tale of a Jewish neo-Nazi skinhead, won the grand jury prize, the top honor for dramas at the Sundance Film Festival.
Hedwig and the Angry Inch, a raucous musical adapted from the off-Broadway play about a rock singer struggling with her botched sexchange operation, won the dramatic audience award. Hedwig also won the dramatic directing award for
John Cameron Mitchell, who stars in the title role.
The documentary audience award was split by two films: *Downtown and Z Boys*, the story of misfit skateboarders in Santa Monica, Calif., who pioneered extreme sports in the 1970s; and *Scout's Honor*, director Tom Shepard's study of anti-gay policies in the Boy Scouts.
Dartmouth professors found dead at home
HANOVER, N.H. — The safe, close-knit feel of Dartmouth College was shattered Sunday by the suspicious deaths of two popular, longtime professors, a couple described as the pillars of the Ivy League school's faculty.

Bush, his wife, Laura, former President Bush and his wife, Barbara, attended Lincoln Park United Methodist Church on Capitol Hill.
By the end of the one-hour, 45-minute service. Bush and his family were up and moving for a song whose refrain went: "I've got a feeling everything's going to be all right."

Laborers strike in Israel, city's operations halt
JERUSALEM — Tons of garbage littered the streets of Israel's major towns, government offices were closed, and most flights at the main international airport were canceled Sunday in a massive strike of state workers.
The walkout by workers at the Ben-Gunon airport near Tel Aviv forced the cancellation of most outgoing flights, though some were able to depart. Some incoming flights were allowed to land, but passengers had to leave the airport without their luggage as the baggage handlers were on strike.
The strike was called by the Histadut, Israel's giant labor federation, in support of pay demands. In addition to the airport staff, the strike has hit government offices, hospital administration, telephone services, railways, seaports and garbage collection.

Body could be atheist leader's
CAMP WOOD, Texas — Investigators unearthed a metal artificial hip and three skulls at a ranch yesterday and strongly believe they have solved the disappearance of atheist leader Madalyn Murray O'Hair and her family.
The Associated Press
Roderick Beverly, special agent in charge of the FBI's San Antonio office, stopped short of confirming the identity of the bodies, but he said officials believe the search is complete.
Investigators believe O'Hair, her son Jon Garth Murray and the grandmother she had adopted, Robin Murray O'Hair, were killed, dismembered and dumped on the private, 5,000-acre ranch in 1995. O'Hair had a hip replacement operation several
O'Hair had a hip replacement operation several years before her disappearance.
"The bones indicate three sets of human remains," Beverly said. "All appeared to have their legs cut off. The remains and the ground around the bones were charred, indicating a fire at the scene.
"The likelihood of three individuals walking around here, one of which has a hip replacement, and the trauma and marks we see on the bones, it's a better-than-even chance" that the remains belong to the O'Hair family, he said.
Beverly said investigators also expect to find partial remains of Danny Fry, who was a suspect in the disappearance. His body was found in the Dallas area, but the head and hands had been severed.
Beverly said investigators would try to match the serial number on the metal hip to O'Hair's medical records. DNA tests and dental records also will be used to confirm the identities of the victims.
Investigators got their break in the O'Hair disappearance on the eve of the trial of David Roland Waters, who faced kidnapping and extortion charges in the case. Waters made an agreement with investigators Wednesday that was ordered sealed by a federal judge in Austin.
A law enforcement source who spoke to *The Associated Press* on condition of anonymity confirmed that Waters was taken to the ranch Saturday.
O'Hair, who was 77 years old when she dispeared, enjoyed calling herself the most hated woman in America. She was involved in successful court battles in the 1960s to ban prayer and Bible-reading in public schools.
O'Hair, Jon Garth Murray and Robin Murray O'Hair left their Austin home in August 1995 under mysterious circumstances. Breakfast dishes were still on the table and O'Hair's medication was left behind. The family's beloved dogs were left at the house.
They were later seen in San Antonio but dropped from sight along with about $500,000 in gold coins from one of O'Hair's atheist organizations.
Prosecutors content the victims were dismembered at a public storage shed in Austin, placed in 55-gallon drums and dumped on the ranch property under Waters' directions. He worked as O'Hair's office manager before being convicted of stealing $54,000. He is serving 60 years in prison on weapons charges.
Theories ranged from O'Hair having run off with money from her atheist organization, United Secularists of America. Others said she went away to die privately where Christians wouldn't pray over her.

Officers patrol in a van down by the fieldhouse

POLICE DEPT.
Around him, more than 10 police officers are meeting to discuss their own pregame assignments.
A glance outside shows that basketball fans are lining up at every door of Allen Fieldhouse, and the television already is tuned to the station where the Saturday-afternoon game will air.
Meanwhile, two dispatchers answer phone calls and talk to officers positioned amid the frenzy of incoming game traffic.
After some encouraging words by Lt. Schuyler Bailey, the group was ready to disband and begin their game-day law enforcement.
Then, they stepped out of the van.
Yes, this entire scene took place in a big white van - a Winnebago, more specifically.
Since 1988, the Winnebago has been parked near the south corner of Allen Fieldhouse, a safety standard incorporated by the KU Public Safety Office.
The van is a police station on wheels, complete with radio communication, cable television, telephones, a dispatch unit, maps of Lawrence and the University of Kansas campus, traffic equipment and enough standing room for the entire KU Public Safety Office force.
The white, glossy interior walls double as a dry-erase board for officers to write information about officer whereabouts and dispatch details.
Bailey said the van wasn't isolated from the public.
If a public safety officer finds a lost child in the fieldhouse, the child may sit in the van while his or her parents are located. Bailey said the van wasn't iso-
"We get questions all the time, and people knocking on our door," Bailey said. "That's fine, we don't mind."
Bailey is one of two event commanders; if he is not in the van, he is stationed nearby, he said.
Sgt. Troy Mailen said the Winnebago was stationed at every home basketball and football game and it also had been
driven to Kansas State football games and state fairs.
Occasionally, the Lawrence Police Department borrows the van.
Though the Winnebago has a long history, the public safety office is considering other options. Mailen said.
The office already is discussing
buying a new van.
"We don't have a place to park it right now." Mailen said. "It's been fine so far, but the bad weather eventually wears it. Now we're looking at replacements and housing."
KU facilities operations stores the van and oversees its repair.

Bar licenses challenged for overdue taxes
By Erin Adamson
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Bar owners who haven't paid their personal property taxes could be reminded by the City Commission when their liquor licenses come up for renewal.
At Tuesday's City Commission meeting, a citizen asked the commission not to renew the liquor license for Fatso's, 1016 Massachusetts St., and to review the business' unpaid taxes.
Lawrence resident David Halroyd said that if Fatso wasn't responsible enough to contribute its share to the community by paying personal property taxes, it shouldn't be allowed a new liquor license.
Halroyd said Fatso's owed
$4,500.30 in delinquent taxes from 1999 and 2000. Ray Hummert, administrative services director for the city, said that Fatso's had paid its taxes since Tuesday's meeting.
Halroyd said he was not specifically targeting Fatso's, but that many local businesses owe the city money and should be punished.
Halroyo said that according to public documents obtained from the city clerk, other downtown businesses that had unpaid personal property taxes included Brown Bear Brewery, 729 Massachusetts St., and Coco Loco Mexican Cafe, 943 Massachusetts St.
Coco Loco's liquor license will be up for renewal in June.
Kelfel Aqui, owner of Coco
Loco, said that the city should no single out only one type of business with licensing requirements
"IIf I set up a retail business, I might not have to deal with the city at all." Aqui said.
He said that if a liquor establishment's license depended on paying delinquent taxes, all business licenses should have the same stimulation.
But Halroyd said that the community suffered when businesses didn't pay up.
"If a place owes that much money, it shouldn't be in business," Halroyd said.
Mayor Jim Henry agreed that a business had a responsibility to the community.
"We can't deny a business a license," Henry said. "We can say that we're not going to grant the
business a license vet."
State law does not stipulate that an establishment must have paid its personal property taxes in order to be granted a liquor license. According to the law, Henry said the city could not deny Fatso's its license.
However, the City Commission could consider an ordinance that would require businesses owners to have paid all their taxes before their licenses are renewed, Henry said.
Commissioner Erv Hodges said that he personally did not see a need to connect taxes with liquor licensing for drinking establishments.
"We're more concerned with whether they are the cause of problems," Hodges said.

Graves exudes timidity, relies on task forces
K U students mildly interested in the governance of the state in which they reside should take a
they. Residence should take a look at what its governor, Bill Graves, did and did not propose in his State of the State Address Jan. 8. The speech was primarily a work of bungled statesmanship characterized by bad sense and timidity.
The speech's emphasis was initially interesting, which rested on the successful growth and wider cast of government programs. That "Kansans benefit more than at any time in our state's history" from its state-sponsored programs and services received mention before Graves even contemplated private sector success es in economic growth, civic organizations and charities
Through much of his speech to the joint session of the legislature, Graves appeared to consider an increase in funding as an end in itself, boasting that, during his six years in office, funding for (insert program here) has been increased by (insert amount here).
Nice, but have we noticed improvements in the problems the programs addressed? No such evidence was

given. Even worse, Graves didn't seem to think there was any reason he should produce any.
The food sales tax program has been expanded by a factor of five in terms of people getting it, and by a factor of 10 in terms of money, while tax credits to low-income Kansans have gone from zero people to 125,000 people receiving $21 million.
Of course, Graves also supported renewing the Kansas Lottery, notorious for transferring wealth from the poor (notorious investors in games of chance) to the state. The lottery remains repugnant on philosophical grounds as well, twisting the traditional mission of government to encourage good habits in citizens and to look out for their best interests whenever possible. It hardly makes sense to give generous handouts to low-income Kansans with one hand and then steal with another.
The governor also seems to have developed the irritating little habit of requiring a "task force" for every facet of policy
— the Vision 21st Century Task Force, Early Childhood Task Force, Task Force on Agriculture, Task Force on Water, and Task Force on K-12 Education — all make an appearance in the speech followed by a full endorsement of whatever it said. Graves devoted a sizable portion of the talk to education. He called on the legislature to "demonstrate the leadership our constituents expect" and recognize "the obligation of vision and leadership," by reviewing resources and "being willing to consider all options to financially implement" the best educational program.
This, in code, was a call to raise taxes and begs the question of why one of the most popular leaders in state history felt the need to code his language at all, if he really believed (and he said he did more than once) that Kansans would support a tangible, rather than theoretical, tax hike.
The governor refused to question the highly questionable wisdom of tacitly blessing the education monopoly. But that would take guts. No, that duty has fallen upon House Speaker Kent Glasscock, with one eye on the 2002 race to replace Graves.
Such weaseling seems unlikely to spur any bold or manly action by a legislature sensitive to growing constituent anxiety about short-term economic fortunes.
Glasscock will introduce a proposal to study a program that would give willing parents a voucher that they could use to send their child to a private school of their choice. Will the bill, merely proposing to study competition in education, garner the squeamish governor's support?
We'll probably have to wait for some task force to recommend it to him first.

Perspective
National anti-abortion rally unifies activists
hope for life, a hope for justice and a right to life for every human being.
A to me for every human being.
That was the theme of 2001's March for Life last Monday in Washington, which marked the 28th anniversary of the Supreme Court case Roe v. Wade. To have hundreds of thousands of people united together to "Defend Life," as rally posters noted, made for a momentous day.
There was no fundamental division or disagreement among the protesters because inside every passionate heart they all knew abortion was wrong. This sentiment evoked, without a doubt, a fervor among all 105 KU students who traveled to participate and also within every other person protesting on that sunny afternoon.

The state of Kansas was represented well. The University of Kansas,

Two other Republican Kansas representatives spoke at the rally, Rep. Jim Ryun and Rep. Todd Tiahrr. We, as Kansans, ought to be proud of our leaders in Washington.
Kansas State University and Benedictine College had huge groups at the rally, along with many churches and organizations from around the state. Because we had front row spots next to the stage, the cheer from Kansans was overwhelming as Sen. Sam Brownback (R-Kan.) delivered a phenomenal speech against abortion.
One of the most emotional moments happened when Brownback interrupted the rally with
Religious leaders from around the country also attended. Priests, rabbis, nuns and pastors of many denominations were there, united to fight the obvious injustice and evil at hand. Perhaps we should listen to the wisest of our country.
breaking news. He informed the crowd of President George W. Bush's executive order to cease federal funding to international family planning groups that offer abortion services or abortion counseling. Instead, the same amount of $435 million would be invested in health and family-oriented services abroad
A priority for Bush, this decision came exactly eight years after President Bill Clinton restored federal funding for overseas abortions.
I am overjoyed to know that our new president is stepping forward to preserve the right to life for the innocent unborn and denying women the choice to take a human life. Bush's message to us at the rally was inspiring and positive.
At each annual march, the president is invited to participate, but Bush was the first since his father to do so. This announcement reaffirmed everyone's hope in their fight for the rights of a human being in the earliest stage of life.
"We share a great goal: to work toward a day when every child is welcomed in life and protected in law," he said. "We know this will not come easily or all at once. But the goal leads us onward, to build a culture of life, affirming that every person at every stage and season of life is created equal in God's image."
At the heart of the abortion debate is the issue of humanity and sanctity. If it is not human, then why does it have a unique set of 46 human chromosomes? If it is not living, then why does its heart beat at 21 days in the womb? The reality of every abortion is the cruelest story anyone could share. There is no justification for murder.
As the popular chant of the march goes: "Pro-
choice is a lie — babies never choose to die." As I took in the importance of this event, another
chant became particularly poignant to me: "Hey,
hey, ho, Roe v. Wade has got to go."

Editorial
University should keep resolutions
The University shouldn't let these three things slide in the new year.
This is the time of year when New Year's resolutions begin to fail. People backslide on their personal resolutions without much consequence — maybe a few more pounds here or there. But as an institution, the University of Kansas cannot afford to backslide in meeting the demands that face it. Here are three resolutions the University should keep.
First, the enrollment process needs to catch up with the rest of the world and get online services. It is grueling to wait in a long line at the crack of dawn, only to discover that most classes are full and that the only possible schedule is more messed up than an unsolved Rubik's cube.
Enrollment can take place in the comforts of a bedroom or office using the Internet, which also takes away the hassle of having to settle for a schedule that is less than satisfactory. Institutions of all sizes across the nation are switching to this procedure, including Johnson County Community College.
After enrollment, it's class time, but arriving on time may present several challenges because of unsafe sidewalks and roads. With the absence of bike lanes, bikers must stick to the sidewalks or streets, meaning they could either collide with pedestrians or buses, whose drivers seem to think that they have the right of way.
Another obstacle arrives when winter comes and the maintenance crew can't canvet the snow or salt the ice in time for morning classes. Cars sometimes fisthail, colliding with curbs and trees, and pedestrians spend more time on the ground than on their feet.
Last, some deceptit classrooms interrupt the learning process. It is difficult to pay attention when forced to sit on the floor through lectures because of broken desks in Dyche Hall, or to work in a lab in Lindley Hall next to a cardboard boxes, or to write a paper in Haworth Hall on a table that smells like mildew.
We aren't asking for ski lifts to replace stairs or for the football team to win a national championship. These three wishes are merely simple resolutions that are long overdue.

Literary magazine logs on
By Brooke Hesler writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
A new online magazine that accepted creative works from student, faculty and staff last semester will publish its first edition today.
Cody Marrs, Wichita freshman and co-editor of Soaallowing Metis, said although Kiost, a similar creative literary magazine, was published twice a year, another publication was needed.
"They don't publish very many things because it doesn't come out often," Marrs said. "Susillowing Metis will come out every month. It will provide a forum for more people to have their voices heard."
Suollowing Metis prints artwork, poetry, prose and fiction. Marrs said in the future, the editors might develop a creative nonfiction category.
He also said the magazine's online
presence allowed more work to be published.
"This is open to anyone from KU,
be it a student, professor or a janior.
Marrs said. "If it's good work,
we'll take it."
The magazine's name originated from Greek mythology, Marrs said. Metis, whose name means creative intelligence, was impregnated by Zeus. When Zeus found out Metis' offspring would overthrow him, Zeus ate Metis. She stayed in Zeus' body and became his counselor. Metis has always been known as a goddess of wisdom.
Although the online magazine is up and running, Marrs said he wanted to advertise to gain readership and solicit submissions. That's why the editors are asking Student Senate for $302, mostly for advertising fees.
"That's really not very much money," Marrs said. "In order to get a Web site to work properly, you
have to get its name out."
Last week, Senate Finance and University Affairs committees approved the bill. It will go to full Senate for a vote on Wednesday. Justin Marz, engineering senator and co-sponsor of the bill to allocate money, said he was confident it would pass.
"The only concern I heard at committee meetings was what to do about possible University censorship." Marz said.
Censorship was also a concern of co-editors Marrs and Chase Richards, McPherson freshman. However, McRams said the editors would have complete discretion over what was printed.
"Right now, we're the people who decide what gets in," Marrs said. "If we get something that's really offensive to a certain group of people, we're under no obligation to publish it."
Richards originally came up with
ON THE NET
ON THE NET
■ Swallowing Metis:
http://www.ukans.edu/~metis
the idea for an online creative publication when he was a senior in high school, but limited resources kept him from launching a publication
"When I came here, it dawned on me that this would be a good place to do this," Richards said. "It's been a long process, but I think now it's something I'm becoming proud of."
When Richards met Marrs and Kendall Irwin, Russell sophomore, he said he'd kindred spirits.
"I knew I had some allies," Richards said. "It made it a lot easier."

INTERNATIONAL STUDENT LIFE
"The rules and the laws are the biggest things to get used to," he said. "They have very strong rules in the U.S. when you are under 21."
The biggest transition for Thibaut Fromageau when he came to America wasn't the language or the culture, but the laws.
Fromageau is one of 13 French students studying at the University of Kansas as part of a 12-week program. The students arrived one week before classes began this spring to take courses in English, business and American culture - while learning to live as a KU student.
The students attend a private business school called Negocio in France. As part of their curriculum, they must fulfill an international requirement, and studying here satisfies that requirement.
"We're off to a really good start," said Margaret Coffey, academic program coordinator for the Academy of International Business. "It is truly a language and cultural experience. They are allowing students an opportunity to live, work and study in another cul-

Applied English Center as well They have adjunct sessions to help them understand the business courses while learning English.
"We want them to learn about key American values—the idea of privacy, individualism and a future orientation and how these underlying foundations drive behavior." Coffey said.
They also study American culture with a different twist. Coffey has her students go into the community looking at T-shirts, bumper stickers and baseball hats as one assignment. They must then explain the cultural significance of each saying.
Along with these classes, the students must conduct research projects. The presentations will allow students to learn about American businesses.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Jan. 29). Your energy level is high this year, so use it! You're extra smart, so don't hold back. An older person has got you blocked in February, but not for long. By March, you could have what you need. Study furiously in April to do what you promised. Relax in May and avoid the spotlight. In June, cuddle in private at home. Cautiously show off new talents in July. Overexuberance can lead to accidents. By August, you should have your act together. In October, you can take it on the road. Step up to the applause in November. Share secrets with your friends in December.
To get the advantage, check the day's rating;
10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging;
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is an 8 Start off with an important meeting. Make promises to your team and get their promises in return. After that's done, you'll be free to take off on an adventure. Don't go too fast or too far, however, and pay attention.

Everybody wants to order you around. Your partner has figured everything out and has no room for your input. A friend is also being bossy. Unfortunately, this will go on at least another day. Keep your lip zipped.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 5 The work is fast, furious and technically demanding. Luckily, you have an excellent memory. Financial wheeling and dealing is going on. You may not see much more in your pocket now, but keep playing hardball.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 5
If you don't speak up about something that's bothering you, it'll just get worse. It's not your nature to complain. Well, at least not until things have built to an intolerable level. Don't let that happen this time.

Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18 — Today is an 8 You like to stay in control. You do that by having all the answers, doing the extra research and squeezing time out of your busy schedule to study. That's what you should do now. You need to know about something before tomorrow.

"Last year was a lot weaker than this year. The lineup of women's films in the marketplace serving as counter-programming to the Super Bowl was really effective," said Paul Dergarabedian, president of Exhibitor Relations Co. Inc.

Battle awaits 'Hawks
KANSAN.COM/SPORTS
Missouri rivalry to test Kansas
By Chris Wristen
sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportwriter
Kansas" "Men on a Mission" basketball poster depicts coach Roy Williams and his seniors in army gear. The poster was meant to promote the 2000-01 season, but the combat uniforms might also be appropriate attire for tonight's battle with rival Missouri.
No. 4 Kansas takes on the Tigers tonight at 8 p.m. in the Hearnes Center in Columbia, Mo. Senior center Eric Chenowith said the team is prepared for a battle.
That's easier said than done.
For starters, Kansas (17-1 overall and 6-0 in the Big 12 Conference) has lost four of the last five meetings at Missouri (13-6, 4-2). Also challenging are deadly shooters Clarence Gilbert and Kareem Rush. Rush leads the conference in scoring, and Gilbert burned the Jayhawks with seven three-pointers in last year's 22-point Missouri win in Columbia.
"It is an all-out war," Chenowith said. "Put on your camouflage and color your face. It is time for war, and there is no better feeling than going into the Hearnes Center and getting a win."
Those factors have coach Roy
Williams concerned.
"We've got to be ready to play, and I think we have to play our best game of the year to have a chance." Williams said.
Both Rush and Gilbert threaten to drop in truckloads of points against the Jayhawks, despite Missouri's three losses in its last four games. Missouri's losing streak ended with a two-point win against Texas Tech on Saturday.
Also wreaking havoc on the Hawks will be the notorious Tiger fans and their traditional Antlers club, not to mention a special ceremony honoring former Missouri coach Norm Stewart, which will take place before the game.
"I'm proud of what they're doing for Norm," Williams said. "I have a tremendous amount of respect for what he accomplished.
"We know it will be a fired-up crowd," Williams said. "When we get over there Monday night, they'll be enthusiastic. Those shots they've been missing lately will probably be going in. We've got to find a way to compete in that atmosphere."
Williams said that he thought the ceremony was organized to give Tiger fans additional emotion but that applause for Stormin' Norm was well-deserved.
Senior forward Kenny Gregory offered a solution to defeating the atmosphere — no fear.
"Nothing scares me at all,"
"It is an all-out war. Put on your camouflage and color your face."
Eric Chenowith Kansas senior center
Kansas senior center
Gregory said. "They have to try to beat us. We're the top dogs in the conference, so they've got to try to beat us."
The Tigers have the offensive capability to beat Kansas, but the real challenge lies in their defense.
Missouri has to slow down Gregory and his 16.9 points-pergame average. Sophomore forward Nick Collison has been a menace in the paint recently, and junior guard Jeff Bosche and sophomore point Guard Kirk Hinrich have been deadly accurate from three-point range since conference play began.
Williams said he hoped his 'Hawks give the Tigers all they can handle.
With those tools and the sixth-
thest scoring defense in the Big 12,
the Tigers appear to have their
naws full.
"They've had some great, great games over there." Williams said. "Last year was not one of them. I hope we have one of those great games again."

Women net close victory on the road
By Jessie Meyer

Kansan sportswriter
The Jayhawks have been searching all season for the extra player and extra basket to put them over the hump in close games.
With 50 seconds to go in Saturday's game against Kansas State in Bramlage Coliseum and the Kansas women's basketball team up by three points, that extra player stepped up and made the basket that clinched Kansas' 65-62 victory.
Junior guard KC Hilgenkamp, who had been quiet in recent games, penetrated the lane as the last minute began to tick off the clock and laid the ball in with a confidence that had eluded the junior college transfer for much of January.
"Tonight, I just had my confidence back and it was just me and the basket," she said.
The Wildcats responded with a quick basket to pull within three once again, but the Jayhawks (8-10 overall and 2-5 in the Big 12 Conference) held off the Wildcats (11-7 and 1-6) with intense defensive pressure on the three-point arc. The win snapped a three-game losing streak for the Jayhawks and brought them up from the bottom of the Big 12.
"I'm pleased that we got KC playing pretty good basketball tonight," Kansas coach Marian Washington said.
But Hilgenkamp, who ended the game with nine points, was not the only player who stepped from the shadows. Junior guard Selena Scott, who averages 5.4, added 11 points, four rebounds and two steals.
The main Kansas scorers continued to add big numbers, with Jackyn Johnson leading the way with 20, Jennifer Jackson adding 12 and Brooke Reves chipping in another 10.
Confidence was something the Jayhawks had plenty of Saturday as they hung on to a fluctuating lead throughout the game and gained their second conference win — their first coming against K-State two weeks ago.
Everything from grabbing boards to ball handling seemed to fall into place for the 'Hawks. They out-rebounded the Wildcats 31-28 and turned over the ball only 13 times — a season low.
"If we can keep getting players stepping up with more confidence, it will really help us," Washington said.
Game notes
Johnson's 20 points pushed her to 11th in Kansas' all-time score list with 1,201. Johnson passed Suzi Raymant who scored 1.194 from 1968-2000.
Junior center Nikki White left the game with a right ankle sprain and did not return.
Kansas picked up its first conference road win of the season and the first conference road win since upending Iowa State on Feb. 16. 2000.

New coach can't end streak
By Chris Wristen
KANSAS

New season. New coach. Same result.
Kansan sportswriter
New season, new coach. Same resurst.
First-year coach Jim Wooldridge led Kansas State into Allen Fieldhouse on Saturday afternoon, but the new boss encountered the same result that his predecessor, Tom Asbury, always did — a loss.
Kansas extended its Sunflower Showdown winning streak to 20 games with its 92-66 win, but the game appeared to be over after the opening minutes. The No. 4 Jayhawks (17-1 overall and 6-0 in the Big 12 Conference) came out hot, shooting a scorching 62 percent from the field in the first half.
Senior forward Kenny Gregory's put-back only 19 seconds into the contest was just the starting point for a game-opening 25-10 run that was fueled by 10 points from sophomore forward Nick Collison and two 3-pointers by sophomore point guard Kirk Hirnich.
After a dominating first half, Kansas opened the second on a calmer note. The Jayhawks lost their offensive rhythm and K-State found some momentum.
As sharp as the 'Hawks who k-State (8-9, 2-4) reserve Tony Atkinson torched Kansas for 28 points — the most by any player Kansas has faced this year.
"Shooting 62 percent in the first half gave us that cushion," sophomore forward Drew Gooden said. "It was important that we put this team away and prepare for Missouri."
"We've got to be able to keep our intensity up for a full 40 minutes, especially in the Big 12," Boschee said. "Especially when it gets down to the stretch of a game. That could cost us a game sometime."
K-State shot 42.9 percent from the field, becoming the 17th consecutive Kansas opponent to shoot less than 50 percent.
Five Jayhawks scored in double figures, led by Gregory's 20 points. Hinrich added 18 on 4-of-6 shooting from three-point range and Collison scored 15.

Diversions of sport soured by tragedy
I hate it when sports and reality meet.
But somehow, that championship doesn't seem quite as meaningful.
That's because as dusk descended on the Rocky Mountains on Saturday, the joyful diversions of sport met head-on with the cold bitterness of truth.
Oklahoma State played a basketball game Saturday against Colorado, but today, few will remember the score. Yesterday, the Baltimore Ravens were crowned the NFL champions in Super Bowl XXXV.
Among the dead were Oklahoma State players Nate Fleming and Dan Lawson, plus two Kansas graduates — Will Hancock, a Oklahoma State sports information employee, and Cowbvs trainer Brian Luinstra.
About 40 minutes after one of the Cowboys' airplanes took off Saturday from an airport outside of Boulder, Colo., it crashed to the ground, leaving its 10 passengers dead.
The Cowboys were scheduled to play again tomorrow, but that game was postponed. Somehow, it just wouldn't have mattered.
Some would argue that sports don't have a place in everyday society. On the contrary, sports are irreplaceable.
Sports were created as a diversion. Somehow, the triumphs and defeats on an athletic field can help you get through the pressures of everyday life.
As I write this, my television is tuned to CNN/Headline News. Since the latest news on the plane crash, there has been a report of a deadly earthquake in India, a continued investigation of a murder in Texas, and a story of a vicious dog attack that left a young woman dead.
During the last century, the tragedy of everyday life has sometimes been overshadowed by the feats of a team on an athletic field. Is it right? Perhaps not.
But sports are a necessary diversion. That sports are so inconsequential, so meaningless in the long run, makes them a necessary thread in the fabric of society.
Think of the hundreds of flights that various sports teams fly on daily around the world. And then consider that this is just the 14th plane crash involving a sports team.
But then something like the latest air tragedy happens. The diversion of sports becomes tainted as well, and the innocence of athletics is overrun with tragedy. People who were heroes just hours before suddenly die.
And no matter how many games the Cowboys play, and how many new arenas Oklahoma State opens, the Oklahoma State basketball community will never be the same.
At the same time, it's surprising that tragedies such as this don't happen more often.
Pretty amazing stuff.
But Saturday's crash certainly puts things in perspective. For one, I can't tell you how many times I've flown over that crash site heading home to Denver — a few times in the snow, no less.
And in November, two other Kansan staffers and myself were scheduled to fly on the Jayhawks' plane back from New York City after the Coaches vs. Cancer Classic. They made four of us get onto another plane, saying that the plane we were on was overweight.
We laughed about it at the time. It doesn't seem so funny anymore.
The next few days will put even more things in perspective in the sporting world. The crash site will be cleaned up, and more basketball games will be played. Eventually, life will return to normal, and the Cowboys who died in eastern Colorado will fade into history.
But for now, just when everybody from Lawrence to Wichita and all the way to Stillwater needs a diversion, there just isn't one to be found.

K-State's Atchison shines
大
By Zac Hunter
As a sign in the north end of Allen Fieldhouse read, the Kansas State offense was "Not Zesty" in Saturday's 92.66 loss to No. 4 Kansas.
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
The Wildcats (8-9 overall and 2-4 in the Big 12 Conference) struggled to put points on the board all afternoon against the menacing defense of Kansas (17-1 and 6-0). But while most of the K-State offense sputtered, one player was able to shine.
The game day program listed junior guard Tony Atchison as a key reserve, and that couldn't have been a more appropriate description. Atchison came off the bench and scorched the Jayhawks for a game-high and a career-high 28 points, including 19 in the first half.
"I thought he was awfully good in the first half," said K-State coach Jim Wooldridge. "He was our answer to what we didn't do on defense."
"It just came to me," Atchison said. "I wasn't expecting to hit that many shots. I was just playing in a rhythm."
Did Atchison have any inclination during warm-ups that this might be his career day? Not really, but he did have a simple explanation for why most of his shots were falling.
Atchison was the only offensive threat in the first half for K-State, scoring half of the Wildcats' 36 points. Atchison kept the Wildcats in the game long enough for them to put together a second-half run.
But that run was brief. There were no more wide-open looks at the basket, and he always had a
"We talked about it at halftime, we wanted to cut down his looks in the second half," said Kansas coach Roy Williams. "He had a heck of a game coming off the bench."
Kansas player on his heels as his teammates set screens for him.
Despite Atchison scoring only nine points in the second half, the Wildcats were able to dig into the sizable 17-point Kansas halftime lead.
KANSAS 10
"I thought if we got it within 10 that we'd have a pretty good chance at the end," Atchison said. "They made runs and they kept pushing."
Unfortunately for Atchison, the more the Jayhawks pushed, the more tired he became. Although he leads the team in scoring with 12.9 points a game, he usually logs 28 minutes per game. Wooldridge knew the 32 minutes Atchison put in on Saturday was pushing it.
"That's too many." Wooldridge said. "He did run out of juice."
While the Wildcats never did cut the Kansas lead to 10 in the second half, they did get it to 12 points with 9:48 remaining before the Jayhawks went on a 9-3 run that effectively sealed the game.
Although Atchison was running on empty near the end of the game, while he was on, no one was able to contain him. Wooldridge said the key to Atchison's scoring is confidence.
"I know he wants to shoot it." Wooldridge said. "It doesn't rattle him to miss a shot. He's pretty confident in his abilities."

The men's team fell to 0-5 with a
161-76 defeat to the Cornhuskers.
Sophomore swimmer Brian Soria was the lone firstplace winner as he won the 1000-meter freestyle event. Freshmen swimmer Dustin Chalfant also contributed to the Jayhawks' effort as he posted a career-best time in the 200-meter breaststroke, claiming a second-place finish.

Study Abroad participants come from most of the schools of the University. Most students are able to fulfill graduation requirements and maintain progress toward their degrees while studying abroad. A few examples of discipline-specific programs include those for Architecture, Art and Design, Business, Engineering, Environmental Studies, Languages, History, International Business, Economics, Classics, Education, Social Welfare, Humanities.
For most programs, upon return to KU and receipt of transcripts from the host institution abroad, grades are posted for KU equivalent courses on the student's KU transcript. Through the Office of Study Abroad, students remain enrolled at KU, earn resident KU credit, and are awarded grades for credit earned while studying abroad. Students from most disciplines may earn credit to fulfill KU degree requirements.
Dear Jayhawk,
Program costs vary, but studying abroad does not have to be expensive. For instance, KU exchange agreements with universities in costa Rica, United Kingdom, France, Sweden, Australia, and with the International Student Exchange Program (ISEP) provides study abroad opportunities of great value at tuition, room and board costs close to those of staying on the Lawrence campus. Students paying non-resident tuition will find that the cost of study abroad can be less than that of studying on campus. Normally, federal financial aid is applicable to study abroad programs and in most cases KU scholarships and grants may be applied to the study abroad program fee.
This issue of Jayhawks Abroad is different from past issues. We are featuring articles and photos not just of current KU students that have studied abroad, but also from KU alumni. Putting together this issue has been a great opportunity to see how far the concept of studying abroad has come at the University of Kansas. It has been rewarding to see the universal themes of self-confidence, independence curiosity, and broadened perspectives that keep popping up, whether it is from a student that returned from a life-changing study abroad experience within the last few weeks, or from someone who has had several years to reflect back on how studying abroad has impacted them.
Letter from the Editor
The French café photo on the cover originally appeared in a KU study abroad newsletter dated September 13,1969.At the time,KU offered six Summer Language Institutes (all of which are still in
existence), two liberal arts summer programs, and year abroad programs in Bonn, Germany; Bordeaux, France; and San Jose, Costa Rica. Over 30 years later, KU now boasts programs in 55 countries, covering Spring Break, Winter Break Summer, Semester, and the academic year. While there has never been more variety of study abroad options available to KU students, the enduring benefits of studying abroad remain unchanged. Studying abroad is easier than you might think. I encourage you to stop by the Spring Study Abroad Fair this Wednesday, January 31, on the fourth floor of the Kansas Union to find out about all of the great opportunities that are available to you. Recent study abroad alumni, exchange students and OSA staff will be on hand to help you find your life-changing experience.

To Antananarivo and Back
Alumni bio: Beau Pritchett attended KU from 1984 to 1989 as an undergraduate, and 1990 to 1993 as a graduate student. He received his B.A. in French and Anthropology, and an M.A. in French. Beau spent the 1987-88 academic year in Besançon France, and as a graduate student, spent the 1989-90 academic year on a Graduate Direct Exchange in Strasbourg, France. After graduate school he spent three and a half years in Madagascar with the Peace Corp, before returning to the University of Kansas to work in the Office of Study Abroad.
When Beau Pritchett began his academic career at the University of Kansas, he didn't know that the option to study abroad existed, and didn't plan to major in a language while at KU. After talking with a professor, and corresponding with friends that were studying abroad, he quickly realized that studying abroad was something he really wanted to do. His decision had a dramatic impact on his life. "Studying abroad opened a lot of doors for me. Essentially it has influenced every major life decision I have made since then."
While in Besançon, Beau found that his academic interests became very focused, and it became an obvious choice to continue studying French at the graduate level. "One year in France was a great experience, but I really thought a second year would help me get my French to a level I wanted. I didn't start studying French until I was 14, so I had to spend more time in France to compensate for my 'late' start of language study."
One result of Pritchett's studies in France, was an interest in learning more about Africa. "I had several African friends I had met while studying in France, and it eventually became a
goal of mine to go and learn about Africa firsthand." While back at KU finishing up his master's degree, he began to look into joining the Peace Corps, with the hope of getting a placement in Francophone Africa. He was offered a spot on a project in Madagascar, a former French colony just off the coast of Mozambique, in southern Africa. "I knew where Madagascar was on a map, but little else." He began learning Malagasy upon arrival, which was essential in being able to communicate with people outside of the major towns of Madagascar. His original two-year commitment was lengthened to three and a half years when he agreed to begin a second project involving training teachers in teaching English as a second language. "Having a master's degree in a foreign language, particularly French, was particularly useful in my work as a language teacher trainer in Madagascar."
Pritchett had a chance to lengthen his stay in Madagascar again though another agency, but declined. "I thought it might be nice to see what home was like again." Soon after his return to the United States, he heard about an opening at the KU Office of Study Abroad that sounded like a perfect fit for him. "I love KU,and working at the Office of Study Abroad seemed like an excellent tie-in to my passion for international education." Pritchett finds that the best part of his job is advising students. "Working with students, trying to find ways to help them achieve their goals is very enjoyable for me. Each student is different, so the job is challenging and very rewarding. That's what keeps me here."
Semester in Scotland
By Karmen Baldomino
Studying last semester in Stirling, Scotland allowed me not only to experience its modern culture and lifestyle, but historical heritage as well. I could not have chosen a more picturesque hailed by many as the most beautiful campus in the United Kingdom) nor resourceful campus to live than Stirling University. Amongst its 330 increage, the campus offers a magnitude of activities and sites to offer its students including a tour of its own castle, Airthrey, followed by a game of golf (if one so desires) on the course surrounding the castle. For those adventurers, how about some kayaking in the loch, or a hike up one of the campus' mountains (a great place to camp and picnic with friends at the top when weather permits). For the historical buffs, try a visit to the centuries-old standing stones located sporadically around campus (believe me, you can't miss them) or a relaxing walk through it's Celtic cemetery. For those Braveheart fans, the Wallace monument, erected in 1869, overlooks the entire campus and if one becomes inclined, a climb of its 246 steps to the top leads to mesmerizing view of the city. While in town, pay a visit to Stirling Castle, home of the Stuarts, offering sightseers a retreat into Scotland's past. Nearby, historic Edinburgh invites visitors on nightly ghost walks through the old parts of town. Further north in Angus, visit the birthplace of J.M. Barrie, otherwise
known as the creator of Peter Pan. Another must see is the Trossachs located in the Highlands offering spectacular scenic views of the lochs and mountains that compose it.
The easiest and least expensive way to travel around the UK is the rail system, which takes you to various places within the UK. While in England, be sure to visit Whitby, an old fishing village which notable people such as Captain James Cook called home and Bram Stoker lodged while writing Dracula and yes, Dracula hunts remain a common theme here. Another place to venture while in England is Leeds for some shopping and a cup of Starbuck's coffee as a nightcap.
Another inexpensive way in which I chose to travel was by joining Stirling University's mountaineer club. For a nominal fee, plus a few essentials such as hiking boots and appropriate clothing for the varied weather conditions, the club ventures to an array of attractions like the Isle of Arran. Here you can hike or climb its various mountains and valleys, camp and visit the isle's castle, Brodick, followed by a stroll through its majestic gardens.
Soaking it Up
Scotland offers a variety of attractions for those seeking adventure and a different perspective of what the world has to offer. My only regret is that I did not stay longer.
Alumni bio: Kristen Bell attended KU from 1996 to May, 2000. She graduated with a B.A. in Spanish. She participated in KU's semester program in Santiago, Spain in the Fall of 1998, and the KUI Summer Language Institute in Guadalajara, Mexico during the summer of 1999.
I am twenty-two years old, working in an 11th century Moorish castle as a Regional Program Study Abroad Coordinator in Ronda, Spain. I cross a bridge over an 80 meter gorge with an absolutely beautiful view of the sun rising over the Sierra Nevada every morning as I walk to work, and I am able to travel to any of the major cities in Andalucía on any given weekend. How did I get here? I ask myself that question every day.
I first traveled and studied abroad two years ago in Santiago de Compostela. I was a Junior, thought I wanted to go to medical school become a doctor and save the world. What did I know? I had always been interested in Spanish, the pictures of Spain were beautiful, it was only for one semester, what did I have to lose?
That semester was wonderful. I learned so much about myself, another culture; I met people from all over the world and saw sights I could never have imagined. I was like a sponge trying to soak everything in all at once. When I returned, the first question I had was, "Where am I going next?" The following summer I studied in Mexico and it was there that I decided that Spanish was definitely something I wanted to continue studying.
My sights were focused and my goal was set: I wanted to do everything I could to become fluent in the language that I so adored. And so one year later, here I am, working in Ronda and studying to improve my Spanish with the hopes of attending graduate school next year. I have never really had a set plan of what I wanted to do with my life. By studying in Santiago I found something that I liked, something that fascinated me, and something that I wanted to learn more about. And that is exactly what I am doing.

au Marché Owner Remembers Experience
Lora Duguid attended KU from 1991 to 1995, receiving a B.A. in Art History, and a B.A. in French. She spent the 1993-94 academic year studying in Besancon, France, and is currently the managing owner of au Marche, the European Market in downtown Lawrence.
I was accepted to study abroad but I didn't want to go. Ever since my freshman year of high school when I learned about study abroad programs, I had wanted, thought I needed, to spend a year in France. When the opportunity arose, however, and I was granted a spot on the year-long exchange to Besançon, France, I came up with a million reasons for why I should stay in Kansas: I'd miss walking around campus during the Fall, I'd miss camping out at Allen Field House for basketball games, I'd miss all of my friends and even miss my 21st birthday! My friends thought I was crazy for not wanting to go and my parents wondered what had happened to all of my dreams and aspirations. Eventually, I got over my fear and had a change of heart.
Seven years later, I still think about how lucky I am to have had such an experience. Studying abroad was a 10-month lifeshaping event. Before I left I was a shy student who liked speaking French. I knew that I wanted French to be a part of my life in some way, but I didn't know how. Living in Besançon for nearly a year, and traveling throughout Europe during that time, instilled a sense of self-confidence that I had never known I was capable of feeling, and it gave me a direction in my professional life. The newfound
self-confidence was generated by many little things that can only happen when a person takes a chance and does something new. While studying abroad I improved my French speaking skills immensely, I learned to adapt to a different culture, I became much more independent and I traveled to beautiful, intriguing places that made me think about the world in ways I never had before. I did normal everyday things too, but I did them while speaking French. Successfully buying bread, going to the movies, taking a train and understanding a class lecture are all far more exciting and rewarding when you are doing them in a foreign language that you have worked years to learn. Also, it was during my year abroad that I came up with an idea that provided me with a successful and everrewarding small business in Downtown Lawrence.
The ultimate reward for me was making French friends. I didn't leave having made a lot of acquaintances-I was luckier than that. I left knowing that I had made friendships that will last and enrich my life forever. I guarantee you, it is the people you will meet during your study abroad experience that will make it one of the most memorable summers, semester or years of your life. Once you've established those friendships, you will have a life-long connection to that place, that experience and to a part of your life that you will have to leave behind when you return to KU. I suspect that if you are like me, you will leave knowing that you made the right decision.
Gaining a New Perspective of the World

Tom Rudkin attended KU from 1969 to 1973, receiving a B.A. in mathematics with highest distinction and honors. He spent the 1971-72 academic year studying in Bordeaux, France. He is currently retired from a career as a full-time software development engineer, having worked for Intel, Bell-Northern Research, VisiCorp, and Microsoft.
In September 1971 I left the United States for the first time to study at the University of Bordeaux, France, on a year-abroad program run by Colorado University. I was a KU junior from Wichita majoring in math. I was somewhat apprehensive. How would I adapt to nine months in a foreign culture,having to deal with everything in a foreign language? With two years of education at a top university and four years of French under my belt,and my own wits,I felt ready to take on the world.
Why would a math major choose to spend a year abroad? Many people thought it was off-track for someone studying math or sciences. However, one of my friends at KU had spent a year studying in Germany. Hearing him talk of his experiences and how they had opened his eyes to a whole new world made me want to try it myself.
The CU group (44 students in all, ten from KU) spent the first five weeks in Bordeaux in intensive French language, history, and culture courses. After that I began to feel comfortable in French. Regular university classes began in late October. From then until the end of May I took a number of courses, some aimed at teaching French literature, history, and so forth to foreign students, and some courses in the regular University with French students, including philosophy, political science, and math. As it turns out, the courses were not difficult to understand because the professors lectured in extremely precise and clear French.
My entire time in Europe was not devoted to studying. Even a serious student like me found plenty of time for fun and informal learning, like hanging out in cafés and bistros with my French and American friends. The CU group took trips around the Borieaux region and nearby parts of France (including the St-Emillion wine country and the beautiful Dordogne region with its pre-historic cave paintings). And I took extended train trips at Christmas and Easter breaks across much of Europe and even into Morocco. (As a poor student, I wasn't
Jayhawks Abroad
So now, over a quarter century later, has any of this really mattered in my life? The answer is an unequivocal Oui! I matured from a youth into an adult during my year abroad. I had to negotiate my way through new situations in unfamiliar places in 11 countries, where often I didn't know the language and where I didn't initially know the customs. I became much more confident of my ability to deal with the unknown. I widened my perspective of my own country and of the world by seeing them from different vantage points.
Of course, anyone who visits a country for a few days or even a few weeks will see the important sites of the country and learn something about its people and its history. But living in a foreign land is quite different. I learned so much about the French people by riding from my place in the city to the campus in in the suburbs with French students. By dining with French students at the student restaurants. By taking a day-long walking tour of Bordeaux with Gérard, a history student whom I met by chance early in the year and who befriended me. And especially by sitting in the living room watching television or just talking with the Florentys, the French family in whose home I lived and who graciously invited me into their lives.
What did I get out of my year abroad? They say that travel broadens your point of view, but I think anyone who hasn't spent time actually living in a foreign country can't truly appreciate this. It's not just seeing new things, as a tourist does, but immersing yourself in another culture until you begin to see things from a new perspective. (I've found that many people don't even seem to realize they have a specific perspective that affects their view of the world!)
sure when I'd be able to come back to Europe, so I thought I'd better try to see the entire continent while I was there and could buy a relatively inexpensive StudentRail pass!)
But most of all, I believe my liberalarts education (in Bordeaux and in Lawrence) and my broadened perspective made me who I am today: a more well-rounded individual, better able to understand and respond to the world around me as it continually changes. This has been essential to me in my career in software development, and to my life. I strongly recommend study abroad to all students.
Work Brings Freedom
A Student's Experience: Auschwitz-Birkeneau
By: Meghan E. Seifert
Meghan Seifert participated in the Fall European Cultural History Tour offered by Eastern Michigan University during the Fall 2000 semester.
ARBEIT MACHT FREI, WORK BRINGS FREEDOM.
My eyes fill with tears as I try to decipher the cynical phrase atop the iron-gated entrance to the death camp. All I hear as I walk through the gate and down the brick-building lined street are the sounds of human feet stumbling over gravel as our bodies try to cope with the shock. For one of the few times in my life, I can only move my body with the coercion of my entire soul. My emotions have overpowered me.
For a minute, I am able to imagine what it was like for the millions of men, women,and children that walked through this gate and past the guard's post. Their feet must have sounded just like ours.
We turn the corner. I shield my eyes to the blinding sun. It is a beautiful day, a horrible day. How could the sun shine on a day like today? I am on the blocks, as the brick-building barracks where the prisoners lived were called.
The fences that still stand surrounding Auschwitz.
It is surreal. It is reality.
I climb the wooden steps to Block Five. Once inside I dare to take my eyes away from the security of my tennis shoes. Behind the glass, 21,000 pairs of worn, torn, leather shoes look back at me. Preserved forever, they have not been forgotten. The red ones stand out.
"It's a harsh reality, isn't it?" a friend says to me.
I am numb and agree, the only words I will utter all day. The next room is filled with luggage. Lured by the fictitious promise that they would be returned, names, dates, and hometowns were written on each. Some of the birth dates belong to infants. Another room is filled, floor to ceiling with pots and pans. Another room is filled with women's hair that had been cut off. The hair was used to make clothing.
On the next block, photographed portraits of prisoners are displayed on the walls. Matter-of-factly, their names, dates of imprisonment, and the date and cause of death are listed, dysentery, pneumonia, natural causes, all lies. Hitler is not listed as a cause of death; the Nazis wrote these obituaries. I stare at the wall of pictures. The victims, in their pinstripe uniforms, look back at me with fearful, tearful eyes.
Their eyes cry to me, and their mouths, slightly ajar, seem to be pleading with me.
"Why was I shot, why did I starve, why was I persecuted?"
I gasp with fear as I see my reflection in the glass,and recoil into reality.I feel I have abandoned them.My tear-filled eyes mimic theirs.
I walk past more blocks. I walk past a target range, where humans were used as targets. Flowers and candles cover the ground. I walk past the gallows, where prisoners were forced to witness the hanging of fellow prisoners, friends, and family. I reach the gas chamber and crematorium.
The stone building is constructed under the ground. Green grass grows atop the gas chamber where poison was once poured. I walk down the stairs into the gas chamber. Where I stand, with no fear of my own death thousands fell to theirs. I cannot face the human suffering that was endured in this horrible place. I can almost hear their screams and feel their bodies. How could this have ever been a reality?
The crematorium is the next room. Once they were killed, their bodies were burned. Flowers and pray candles have been placed where bodies once were only 60 years ago.
I tell myself it is a different world today. Is it? Auschwitz is still real. The tour is over. I feel guilt and sorrow. What have I endured? I defy the sarcastic phrase above the entrance and walk out of the camp on my own freewill.
Birkeneau, the second camp of Auschwitz.
The railroad tracks continue inside the entrance, where all who were imprisoned by the Nazis were received. These tracks brought over one million people to mass extermination. It is here, with a sway of the hand, left to work, right to death, ordinary men with evil intentions decided the fate of hundreds of thousands.
The railroad tracks lead all the way to the end of the camp. Past all the wooden barracks, most of which are destroyed except for their telltale brick chimneys. It seems only fitting that the crematoriums lie at the end of the tracks. Hitler's Final Solution to the Jews. A monument, commemorating the victims of Auschwitz and Birkeneau, separates the five crematoriums. There must be well over a

million stones terracing the foundation, one for each victim, I believe. And amidst the sorrow that will never free this place, or the people that must face it, grows a strong message of new life. For between every hard gray stone, lies soft,
green moss. It is a symbol that there is life and hope amid the greatest death and deepest despair.

Falcon, eagle among e-mail servers to be phased out
By Cássio Furtado
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
KU students and faculty will be required to move to a new e-mail program by May, and reaction to the change has been mixed.
The University will eliminate student e-mail servers such as falcon and eagle by the end of the semester, and students will no longer be able to access their e-mail through the aging Telnet program.
Instead, students will access their
mail through the Microsoft Exchange server, which includes features such as file sharing, threaded message board discussions and an address book, said Thelma M. Simmons, Ex change project coordinator.
Students will have to use the Microsoft Outlook program after May 31 to access e-mail f rom Exchange. Falcon, eagle and other servers will be shut down after that deadline. Simmons said. Greg Smith, Olathe senior, said students
E-MAIL CHANGE
exchange@ukans.edu
What's happening:
Students and faculty will be required to move their e-mail accounts to the new Microsoft Exchange server by Thursday, May 31 as old servers such as falcon and eagle are phased out.

wouldn't be pleased about having to learn a new e-mail system.
"I don't like it. Students have gotten used to the programs they're using," he said.
But some students said they were looking forward to the change.
John Liddell, Olathe sophomore, said that Outlook was better because students could check other e-mail accounts and Microsoft Exchange servers. Users will also have access to a built-in word processor and spell check.
"It's really user-friendly and easy-to-use." Liddell said.
Students and faculty who activated new University e-mail accounts since last June are already on the new system, Simmons said.
Twenty-five percent of the University's students and 70 percent of the faculty already use Outlook, she said.
Students will be able to use a new Web-based e-mail service to access their messages away from home, much like the current Webmail system.
Students will also be able to access class message boards with messages divided into subtopics.
Simmons said students would have several additional features available if they used Outlook, including the option to collaborate on projects by sharing files and documents in public folders.
Simmons also said professors would be likely to use Outlook to assign work or to post class materials.
"The University is trying to move everyone to one electronic communication system." Simmons said.
The new Web site, which will appear similar to the Outlook program, will be www.mail.ukans.edu.
The new system will offer increased file space for students' Web sites — up to 10 megabytes, from the current five megabytes.

GARDEN CITY
Garden City The western Kansas as a model for com dealing with diversi
The lifestyles of thousands of Garden Citizens are stuck in a holding pattern until
The western Kansas town serves as a model for communities dealing with diversity.
ConAgra, one of the county's meatpacking plants, decides to rebuild or take its beefpacking plant somewhere else.
A third of the plant was destroyed in a Dec. 25 fire. ConAgra officials say if they rebuild, they will start by Sunday, April 1, but the plant won't open for at least a year.
Story by BriAnne Hess Photos by Nick Krug
Finney County is home to two meat processing plants — IBp, Inc. and ConAgra — which employ about 5,000 people. Before IBp, Inc. was built in Holcomb in 1980, about 24,000 people lived in the county. In the past 20 years, its population has grown to more than 37,000.
The population has grown more diverse as well, with immigrants from Mexico and Southeast Asia.
The fire left 2,100 people out work, and the community is starting to feel the aftershocks.
Thirty students had left public schools because of the ConAgra fire, said Linda Trujillo, director of supplemental programming at the school district. She said that number would probably double by the middle of the week. About 1,100 students of the 7,900 students enrolled in the district had one or both parents working at the plant.
See COMMUNITY on page 6A
The people hit hardest by the plant closing are those who didn't qualify for unemployment benefits
Penney Schwab, director of Mexican American Ministries in Garden City, said that about 50 percent of the workers at ConAgra weren't eligible for employment — and 30 percent of the work force may have had legal papers that wouldn't pass an Immigration and Naturalization Services computer check, she said.
The immigration process has become urgent to those laid off by the plant.
"We held a citizenship seminar last Friday for ConAgra employees," Schwab said. "We expected 60 and had more than 300. We couldn't get them in the building."

Stephenson account fixed after misuse

A former Checkers employee was found responsible for an incident of fraud Involving Stephenson Scholarship Hall's account with the grocery store, said Jim Lewis, Checkers owner.
According to the police report, someone who was not from Stephenson used its account number twice to purchase grocery items, charging $64.21 on Dec. 23 and $249.26 on Dec. 28.
Deb Carter, account manager for scholarship halls, said the issue was no longer a concern for the scholarship hall. Carter said as soon as they received the bill, they checked with the grocery store and explained that the items had not been purchased by scholarship hall residents. The owner of Checkers then reported the incident to the police.
"We didn't have to pay anything," Carter said.
Dusten Crighton, scholarship hall director at Stephenson and Fort Collins, Colo., senior, said as hall director, he was responsible for purchasing items at Checkers and other vendors using the hall account number.
"I go down there, pick up the food, give them the account number and then they send the bill to student housing," he said.
Crichton said $56,000 was available in the food account for the entire academic year and the people who had access to the number were himself, the hall's proctor and its president.
specify whether the number was changed from year to year.
Lewis declined to comment about Checkers' procedure for allocating account numbers to scholarship halls. He also refused to give any information as to who and how many of his employees would have access to that number.
"It's no big deal," said Chris Owen, Olathe sophomore. "It's been taken care of."
Justin Ward, Belle Plaine sophmore, also said it was not a major issue, but he said he was surprised by the incident.
"I guess it's surprising that it's that easy for someone to charge stuff on our account," Ward said.

Queer Radio finds global, diverse audience
By Sarah Smarsh
Kansan staff writer
A local radio program addressing alternative lifestyle issues is receiving global attention.
Queer Radio, 4 to 6 p.m. Mondays on KJHK, 90.7 FM, has built a wide and diverse following with its anything-butmainstream program. KJHK is broadcast live and continuously on the Internet, allowing Queer Radio to reach listeners on the other side of the planet.
Adult English classes at the Berlitz School of English in Dortmund and Berlin, Germany, tune in to *Queer Radio* weekly to learn about culture in the United States.

Feedback crops up from all across Europe. Co-producers Buck Rowland and Brad Koehler said the universal exposure helped spread what they believed was a universal message.
"It's to share a part of mine and Brad's experiences — how everyone's lives are tied together," Rowland said. "And to give voice to unheard voices among communities at large."

In 1999, the Gay and Lesbian American Awards nominated Queer Radio for an award.
Those voices have included Boy George.
But for Koehler, the show's sound librarian, the greatest reward is the chance to challenge ways of thinking.
"It breaks down stereotypes," Koehler said of the show's effect on its listeners.
Koehler said the audience's demographics revealed a desire for knowledge among people of many lifetimes.
"We have more straight listeners than gay listeners," he said.
No matter who is listening, Rowland and Koehler say they have a responsibility to address important issues.
After a string of assaults on gay men in downtown Lawrence last spring, Queer Radio did a series of shows on the topic. The Lawrence Police Department then invited Rowland and Koehler to participate in a police meeting.
Queer Radio is now in its fourth semester at JKHK, which usually limits special programs to three semesters. But because of the show's success, the station granted it an extension.
For now, Rowland and Koehler are continuing to spread their message.
"It makes people even within the gay community realize that it's about more
than being gay." Koehler said. "It's about being human."

African-American town to be topic of speech
Historian Angela Bates-Thompkins will speak Thursday about the families and community life of Nicodemus as part of the University of Kansas' observance of African-American History Month.
Her presentation, "Nicodemus:
Past, Present and Future," will take place at 2 p.m. Thursday at the Jayhawk Room in the Kansas Union. A reception will follow the event, which is free and open to the public.
Bates-Thompkins is a descendant of the Nicodemus settlers, who founded the African-American town in 1877 in the aftermath of the Civil War. She will present a collection of photographs from the Nicodemus Historical Society Collection.
Deborah Dandridge, field archivist at the Spencer Research Library, said the town fostered hope for African Americans looking to escape oppression in the South.
At the town's height in 1910, it boasted a population of 595, several general stores, hotels, churches, a newspaper and a school. However, it began a gradual decline after it failed to attract the Union Pacific Railroad. Today, Nicodemus is a National Historic Landmark in Graham County.

Study abroad fair to include 55 nations
The Office of Study Abroad is sponsoring an information fair from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. tomorrow on the fourth floor of the Kansas Union.
The purpose of the fair is to educate students about different study abroad programs and opportunities, said David Wiley, outreach coordinator for the office.
Wiley said the fair would be a good way for students to learn about the various programs offered because all the information about the programs and all the people involved with study abroad would be gathered at the same place.
"It is the one time during the semester when students can find out about the various programs within a few minutes and find what they like or not without having to set up appointments," he said.
Staff members from the office, students who have studied abroad and current exchange students will answer questions about University of Kansas programs in 55 different countries at the fair.
Representatives for non-KU programs also will be present to provide students with information.

Sonic safe damaged in morning robbery
Someone stole an undisclosed amount of money between 2 and 8:30 a.m. Sunday from a safe at Sonic, 1015 E. 23rd St., Lawrence police said.
Sgt. Mike Patrick said the methods of entry to the safe and to the business were still under investigation yesterday. The safe was damaged in the theft, but a damage estimate was unknown
Police did not have any suspects, Patrick said, and are continuing to investigate.
Yesterday's stabbing victim remain mystery
Few details were available yesterday about a man who had been stabbed in the back during the afternoon, said Rick Trapp, Douglas County sheriff.
Trapp said the man was transported from the 1400 block of N. 1900 Road to Lawrence Memorial Hospital with injuries that did not appear to be life-threatening.
Trapp did not know the man's identification, age or the circumstances of the stabbing. He was not sure how the department had become aware of the situation.
Interviews were being conducted yesterday afternoon, Trapp said, and he expected more information would be available today.
Sobriety checkpoints to begin this weekend
The Douglas County Sheriff's Office will start conducting sobriety checkpoints this weekend in an attempt to decrease the number of accidents that involve drunk driving.
The first checkpoint will be conducted from 11 p.m. Saturday to 1 a.m.
Sunday at the intersection of Highway 59 and County Road 458 (1200 N.
road), said L. Kathy Tate.
The Sheriff's Office recently received a grant of about $6,000 from the Kansas Department of Transportation to conduct six sobriety checkpoints between February and October, Tate said. She said the money would cover expenses for the checkpoints, which will be scheduled at random intervals throughout the six-month period.
Officers will conduct brief sobriety tests if they believe a driver is intoxicated, and drivers who are determined to be impaired will be arrested. — Louen Brandenburu
The Douglas County AIDS Project will have its 10th annual Valentine's Dance Benefit at 7 p.m. Saturday.
AIDS project hopes dance earns $10,000
Feb. 10, in Liberty Hall.
Kelly Hunt — a Lawrence-based recording artist who has performed every year since the benefit's debut in 1992 will provide music for the event again this year.
Those attending will have an opportunity to take part in a silent auction. Bidders will have a chance at messages, meals at local restaurants, jewelry, Vanguard Airlines tickets and an assortment of other items.
The benefit raised more than $8,500 last year, and organizers hope to increase proceeds this year.
"This particular benefit brings in hopefully $10,000, which is about 5 percent of our budget," said Sidney Hardgrave, executive director of the project.
The AIDS project has experienced greater numbers of clients each year. In its 12th year, the group worked with approximately 60 clients, offering case management, emergency financial assistance, advocacy and supportive counseling.
The project works to offer education and prevention programs throughout Lawrence. The staff has started work at the Drop-In Center for the homeless in attempts to lower their risk of contracting HIV. The project hopes to focus on the youth of the community this year with a peer-based prevention program.
Tickets to the benefit are $15 per person and available from AIDS project board members, Liberty Hall, Ticketmaster and the project office.

Texas man executed for 1981 rape, murder
HUNTSVILLE, Texas — A man who raped and strangled a woman he abducted after a staged traffic accident in 1981 was executed by injection yesterday.
Caruthers Alexander, 52, was the third condemned killer to be executed this month in Texas.
Alexander was set to die last year but the execution was halted so more sophisticated DNA testing could be performed on evidence. Test results, received last month, confirmed his guilt
Nineteenyearold Lori Bruch, the mother of a 2-yearold, was driving home when her car was hit from behind by a van authorities said was driven by Alexander.
Prosecutors said Alexander lured Bruch from the car, tied her up, and raped and strangled her.
"It's every woman's worst nightmare to be driving on the street and be abducted, and it's every husband's nightmare that your wife would be out and not come home," said Lyndee Bordini, a former assistant district attorney who prosecuted Alexander.

Student launches Internet site where others can swap books
By Lauren Brandenburg
writer @kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Ryan Duckworth hopes the Web site he launched Thursday will soon be used nationwide for college students to sell their textbooks to each other.
By yesterday, www.bookmark101.com already had received 679 hits.
Duckworth, a Lenexa sophomore studying computer science, said he had received "really positive feedback because students are tired of getting overcharged by the bookstore when they buy and when they sell books."
Ryan Duckworth, Lenexa sophomore, stands in front of a projection screen showing the Web site he launched Thursday where students can buy, sell and trade textbooks.

Duckworth's idea for an exchange system is not new. The Pre-Journalism Club has an idea for a textbook swap in the works for this semester, and Student Senate attempted to organize a program last semester.
He started work on the site during the summer after he and his friends had been talking about how much money they lost trying to sell their books back to the bookstore.
In the Senate approach, students filled out a form at the Senate office if they had a book to sell, and a published list of books for sale was available in the Kansas Union and on the Senate Web site.
Students who wanted to buy books were responsible for making sure the book would be used

Michael Roessler, non-traditional senator and academic task force chairman, said he was unable to sell either of his two books through the program. He said 12 people listed their books for sale, and he did not think any of the attempts had been successful.
Katie Holman, journalism senator and academic task force member, said she thought the lack of response was because it was the first time and not enough students knew about it. Senate will operate the program again this semester, she said.
The idea is still preliminary for the Pre-Journalism Club, said Jonathan Ng, the club's founder and president.
Ng, Leawood sophomore, said he came up with the idea after he had spent more money for his books this semester than he had any
Although Duckworth said he knew that other venues for selling books existed, he said his was unique because it was a fully-interactive Web site. He said he planned for the site to become a "place online where students can hang out" by adding a message board and any other features students wanted to see.

Duckworth said he had contacted Napster and other companies
to invest in the site and expected that he would market it nationwide after it became popular here. But for now, his sights are set on the University community.

Food stand offers alternative at JRP
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
By Andrew Davies
With the opening of a food stand at Joseph R. Pearson Hall last week, students on the north side of campus have an alternative to vending machines.
Jay Glatz, food service director of the Kansas and Burge Unions, said the initial reaction to the stand's opening was positive.
The Kansas and Burge Unions opened the stand, which serves items including Starbucks coffee, juice, fresh Fruit and bagels. It is located on the first floor of JRP.
"I think it went very well," he said. "We had a lot of good responses from students, faculty, and staff."
Theresa Holloway, Kansas and Burge Union food service worker, said business was good, but she expected it to increase.
Holloway said the biggest complaint she heard was from people who wanted a larger variety of coffee drinks.
"This is our first week," she said. "People are trying to get used to it."
"They wish we had cappuccinos and lattes, but there is not enough room for a machine," she said.
Allison McCracken, Shawnee senior, was one of the people who
wanted to see the stand offer capuccino and Frattucciino.
She said the stand could offer a little more, but that it was definitely an improvement from having vending machines as the sole option. She said she planned to use the stand.
"I think it's a whole lot nicer. You can get fresh fruit. You can heat up a meal," she said. "Of course, Starbucks is the best part."
Holloway said the Starbucks coffee was selling well — 228 cups last Thursday alone.
McCracken said the people she knew liked having more options.
"They love it. The only thing is, we're not allowed to eat or drink in the classroom, so you have to stick to the lobby." she said.
Glatz said although the stand couldn't fit a gourmet coffee maker at the present time, he would make adjustments to the stand during the next few months based on customers' reactions.
Although the stand has been open for a week, the grand opening will be tomorrow from noon to 1 p.m. Glatz said students could pick up free samples and enter drawings for prizes.
The food stand is open from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Adjusting hard after a relaxing winter break
As I walked out of Budig Hall after taking my last final of the semester last December, I felt a sense of exhilaration. As I looked ahead to the impending winter break, I saw nothing out an endless string of empty days. Three weeks full of life's little pleasures such as reading non-textbooks, human interaction, sleeping and eating activities I had forgone in the hectic spirit-breaking weeks before finals. At first, the debaucherous party that was winter break seemed like it would not forever.
But time has a strange and annoying
habit of playing tricks with your mind.
One day it was Dec. 19, the next it was 7
semester to begin.
Reality has come
storming back in the
past two weeks, and it
all starts with the
unnoying and insistent
ting of my alarm
clock. Even after two
weeks of attempting to

only wonder why my
room is filled with
blindingly bright light
at 7 p.m.

The realization that
this was the long-forgotten hour of 7 a.m.
not 7 p.m. hurts my brain almost as much as the light (which I deduce is the sun after a few minutes of sleep-weighted consciousness) hurts my eyes.
"Turn it off," I mumble to myself. I still don't know whether I mean the alarm clock (which I keep forgetting how to turn off), the sun — or life in general. After silencing the clock by throwing it across the room, I finally begin my morning routine
Sitting on the edge of my bed, I decide hat maybe I need to give myself a pep alk. "You can do it, self." I said. "Bathe, iress, leave. Bathe, dress, leave."
Myself responds with something imprintable, and, in the end, I have to Iraq myself Edward-Norton-in-Fight- Club style to the bathroom to begin my once-familiar before-school routine.
After completing the first three obstacles of my life back in reality, I am faced with a much more daunting task: the 4th Street hill.
The rusty screech of my brain grinding back into gear, the accumulating projects and papers I entered into my planer and my inability to speak coherently n class — each confirms my worries.
Before break, I could breeze up the hill with hardly a wasted breath. Now, as I tuff and labor, my calves on fire, I begin o worry that while winter break was 'un, it might have done more damage than good.
Last week, as I drove home from an exhausting day of class (coincidentally it about the same time I usually awoke from sleep during winter break), I conepted the means by which I could live in a continual vacation lifestyle. The most likely scenario I could come up with was a lucky scratch on a winning otterty ticket.
Unfortunately, because of my heating bill, I don't have a dollar to spare or a time to scratch the ticket with. My next idea is to find an older, multibillionaire sugar daddy, but one glance at my ripped jeans, uncut hair, and bleary eyes would probably send my rich man running.
A break is, after all, just that. While the endless, hazy days of the vacation past will be missed, it has been almost nice to see the sun reflecting off of good Budig Hall and to use my brain for something other than watching The Price is Right.
But, if any sugar daddies are looking.
I, like most KU students, have only one choice for life after winter break: Suck it in and get going.
I'M GLAD WE WILL BE WORKING TOGETHER!

Garden City an oasis of culture in Kansas
I get a fairly standard reaction from students who have heard of my hometown when I tell them it's Garden City. Usually, it involves their noses wrinkling up as they back away from me and snap, "That place stinks!"
It's the repugnant reaction that gets me the most. I'll agree, Garden City isn't home to the most pleasant odors. But it's not as though, just because I lived there for 18 years, my clothes and hair and skin have picked up the stench of the nation's largest beef-processing plant. At least, I hope not.
Instead, what I picked up from my time in Garden City has enriched me much more
than natural fertilizer has any dry, western Kansas soil.
Because the smell is so prominent and noticeable, people don't take the time to get to know the real Garden City. And largely, I think, because it's in western Kansas, people do everything in their power to discredit anything positive about it.
Students from eastern Kansas assume they are more culturally

enriched because they are from bigger cities and have more access to cultural events. I'll never forget hearing a KU student who went to high school in Lawrence talk about how the state should give eastern Kansas schools more money because they were more deserving of (and more likely to be enriched by) cultural experiences.
egg rolls and dried octopus. I wondered if he ever had to remember the Spanish word for cantaloupe so that he could buy the best kind of frozen popsicle from one of the old women who pushed a blue cart with the words "La Polar" in the summer.
I could only shake my head at that student. I wondered if, in his time in school, he was able to march in parades that celebrated both beef and Cinco de Mayo festivals. I wondered if he saw dragon dancers roam through the hallways of his schools during Tet celebrations each year. I wondered if he learned Vietnamese fan dances and ate authentic tortillas, salsas, tamales,
I wondered if he had ever worked on a publication that printed its stories in three languages — English, Spanish and Vietnamese, or at a zoo, where on Tuesdays he could be a witness to the unofficial cross-dressers' gatherings around the bathrooms, and Sundays the large parties and barbecues of Hispanic families at the park.
I wondered if he grew up knowing that on any given day, he was just as likely to come across a low-rider blasting mariachi music, its front license plate sporting the Mexican flag, as he was to come across a beat-up pickup truck blasting country music, its front plate sporting a Confederate flag.
BriAnne Hess doesn't believe that. A fellow western Kansan, BriAnne had an opportunity last semester to work on an indepth story about Garden City. In this project, which is running in conjunction with The Wichita Eagle today, BriAnne talked to several people enriched by their experiences there.
I was able to experience all that while growing up. But according to my friend, I wasn't enriched by those experiences because I wasn't born on eastern Kansas soil.
Then, the next time you meet someone from Garden City, instead of backing away, you can warm up to a person who has been exposed to more than just bad smells.
Perhaps you can gain some cultural experience from Garden City, too. Before you make any final judgments about my hometown, I encourage you to read the story about it.

Editorial
Bus system needs riders to survive
Years of lobbying brought a city bus system to town. Now, we have to support it.
During winter break, the Lawrence Public Transit System instituted a city bus system nicknamed "the T"—serving all of Lawrence, including the University.
After years of lobbying to bring the service to our community, students and Lawrence citizens must capitalize on this fantastic opportunity to ensure it remains.
Because the bus system is new, students and Lawrence residents are unable to purchase bus passes right now, but passes should be available within the next month. The cost for a ride on "the T" is fifty cents — half of what it costs to ride the KU on Wheels buses.
Representatives of the Lawrence Public Transit System say that turnout has been good so far. Since Dec. 16, nearly 5,000 people have used the buses.
KU students should take advantage of this means of transportation, especially on weekends when the University buses are not running. Some students do not own a car, so "the T" would be the perfect opportunity to take advantage of what Lawrence has to offer.
Many students are unaware of the new transit system. The city buses are easily recognizable because they are much smaller than those used on campus and are white with a "T" logo on the side.
Students without bus passes can take these buses at a much lower rate than the KU on Wheels buses. On days when it's too cold to walk to class across campus, students can catch the city bus.
There are many advantages to buses. Traffic has become somewhat of a problem in Lawrence as the population continues to grow. Buses will help solve the problem of clogged streets, as well as many other transportation debacles for the citizens of Lawrence.
Lawrence will benefit greatly from the new citywide transportation system. Let's give it some support so it will remain.

Education dean finalists announced
By Andrew Davies
writer@kanson.com
Kansas staff writer
The search for a new dean of education is entering its final stage.
Five finalists have been selected to interview for the dean position, but only two names have been released: Dianne Ashby and Jerry Baily.
Ashby is the chairwoman of the department of educational administration and foundation at Illinois State University. She said it was a privilege to be a finalist for the position and that the School of Education's reputation was one of the main attractions to the job.
Ashby said one of the issues she would address would be the quality of teachers put in the field. Beyond that, she said she would not know any specific issues she would address until she got to campus.
"Part of what I need to do is spend time at the institution, talk to the faculty and to students and find out what direction they want to go," she said.
Ashby will be interviewed on campus Feb. 4 to 6.
Bally now serves as the interim dean for the School of Education at the University of Kansas.
Baily said he decided to apply for the position because his year as interim dean had been a good experience.
"I've appreciated this year, and I've appreciated support of faculty and staff and hopefully, students," he said.
Baily will interview Feb. 6 to 8.
"I've tried to keep the search process completely and totally separate," he said.
Susan Twombly, professor of teaching and leadership and chairwoman of the search committee, said all the finalists shared common traits.
"They all have leadership experience in schools of education. They have a track record of working in institution graduate and undergraduate programs," she said. "Most of them have some actual experience working in public schools at some point early in their careers."
The committee plans to release the finalists' names shortly before their visit to campus.
Fred Rodriguez, director of the Center for Teaching Excellence and a member of the search committee, said the finalists were everything the committee could ask for.
"I think, given the role and responsibility of a dean today, the slate of candidates is impressive," he said.
Rodriguez said he had not decided who to vote for. He said he wanted to see the personality of each candidate, their ability to think and connect with the committee, and the direction they want the School of Education to go before he made up his mind.
Twombly said at this point in time only five finalists were selected, but that the search is officially open until the new dean is named.
A frozen treat for every season
Cold doesn't melt demand for ice cream

Snow, sleet and sheets of ice can't keep Katie Mitchell from her ice cream.
The Wichita senior will have a frozen treat any day, any place, any time — summer, spring, fall or winter.
"I go out to get ice cream twice a week, but I'd say I eat ice cream about five times a week," Mitchell said. "I'm addicted to Dairy Queen's frozen hot chocolate and I love The Custard Cup."
Looking out her window and surveying the snowy, sleet-filled day yesterday, Mitchell said that she'd have no problem heading out for a frozen concoction at one of Lawrence's many establishments specializing in ice cream.
Kevin Cole, manager of Sylas and Maddy's Home Made Ice Cream, 1014 Massachusetts St., said Mitchell was not alone with her love of ice cream on days with below-freezing temperatures.
"We have several people who come through twice a week, summer or winter, it doesn't matter," Cole said. "In fact, they like the winter because they can get better parking."
Cole said his store tended to rely on the business from regulars and organized groups when winter hit.
PARKSIDE CHILDREN'S CINEMAS
"We have several college groups that come in regularly." Cole said. "During Monday evenings a lot of the sororities come through because they have chapter that night. You can really tell when winter break is because it gets really lonely in here."

Susan Potter, owner and manager of the Dairy Queen at 1835 Massachusetts St., said that her company ran special promotions every year to bring in customers during the winter months.
"They run the dollar days promotion every winter," Potter said. "During it you can get a Blizzard or a Peanut Buster Parfait for a dollar each when they are usually over $2."
Cole said at Sylas and Maddy's, treats with spoons, like Dairy Queen's Parfait and Blizzard seemed to be more popular in the winter.
"We notice that people's tastes change with the seasons," Cole said. "Right now the people will typically get a sanduze or a malt, while in the summer they'll get cones and walk up and down the street."
"I like fruitier flavors in the summer," Mitchell said. "In the summer you don't want things as rich, but chocolate's good any season."
Mitchell said her tastes did change from season to season.
Cole said he had a customer who went out of his way to get Sylas and Maddy's watermelon sherbet in the dead of winter.
"We make a watermelon sherbet in the summer time, but we can't get watermelon in the winter," Cole said. "But we have a gentleman who brings us back a watermelon from Texas when

he visits in the winter so we can make his watermelon sherbet."
Mitchell said she'd never do anything that extreme to get her fix, but in her opinion, there was nothing wrong with eat-

Students at risk for food poisoning
By Livi Reagenbaum
Kansan staff writer
A bowl of chill introduced Sally Puleo to the immediate effects of food poisoning.
A few hours after eating the chili, Puleo, St. Charles, Ill., senior said she felt terribly sick.
"I remember getting horrible stomach cramps and vomiting as a result of food poisoning." Puleo said.
Randall Rock, physician at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said Watkins had helped several students suffering from food poisoning. He said food poisoning came from contaminated and uncooked food that had not been handled properly.
"Many times people do not wash their hands properly before and after handling food and as a result, can get food poisoning," he said.
According to Rock, symptoms of food poisoning include cramping, nausea, vomiting and watery or bloody diarrhea.
Ann Chapman, nutrition director at Watkins, said uncleanliness in refrigerators and kitchens could also cause food poisoning.
"Often times food that goes out of date can contaminate other foods." Chapman said.
Chapman also advised students not to leave leftovers out for more than two hours because they can become contaminated.
"I cooked these pork chops thoroughly that I had in my refrigerator for a while thinking that they would be OK," she said. "After eating them, I got very sick and had to go to the

hospital."
"I have learned my lesson. If you are in doubt about the quality of any food, throw it out," she said.
"Food is often not cooked at proper temperatures, " Heldeman said. "Beef should be cooked at 155 degrees and poultry should be cooked at 165 degrees in order to avoid contamination."
Mike Heldeman, state information officer for the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, said some students set their ovens at temperatures too low to kill bacteria that causes food poisoning.
Heldeman said students should thoroughly wash their hands before preparing food and should defrost food in either a refrigerator or microwave instead of out on a counter.

Rock said symptoms of food poisoning usually were relieved within 36 to 48 hours but if symptoms continued or worsened, students should go to Watkins.
"If one is defrosting food, they should not leave it out at room temperature," he said. "This can cause contamination. They should store it in a refrigerator and can also microwave it safely to defrost it."

County offers leniency for lucky speeders
By Lauren Brandenbenden
writer@kansan.com
Kansan stuff writer
You're hurrying to get home, and you don't see any police cars — until flashlight lights appear in your rearview mirror.
You've been caught speeding. Is there any way to keep the ticket off your record?
In Douglas County, people ticketed for speeding can apply to get their tickets reduced through the district attorney's office.
To be eligible for the maximum reduction, which reduces a speeding ticket to a non-moving reduction, someone should not have any moving violations on their record within a "reasonable" amount of time, said Rekha Sharma-Crawford, assistant district attorney.
Sharma-Crawford said Douglas County approved about three-fourths of the applications for speeding ticket reductions.
The "buffer zones" — or the number of miles over the limit that will not show up as moving violations on your record — differ between speed zones. If you're going 80 mph in a 70 mph zone, the 10 miles will show up on your record, but they'll appear as a non-moving violation, which keeps insurance costs from going up. Sharma-Crawford said.
In a 70 mph zone, a five-mile reduction can be made if no moving violations existed on the person's record. Sharma-Crawford said if a driver with a clean record was going 85 in a 70 mph zone, the reduction would be the five miles. With the reduction made, the speed would count as 80 mph, which is within the buffer zone, keeping it from being a moving violation.
This system is unique to Douglas County. Sharma-Crawford said.
"The ticket reduction policies are to the district attorney's office's discretion," she said. "This is what we're going to do. You'll find differing ways that it's handled in different jurisdictions."
Scott Chapman, Shawnee junior, said he was clocked at 86 mph in a 70 mph zone.
Chapman said he applied for a ticket reduction, but it was not approved because he had another ticket on his record.
Chapman said he had worked to get violations off his record before in Leavenworth, Wyandotte and Johnson counties. In Johnson County, he said he had paid double the fine, and the tickets were moved down to non-moving violations.
Drivers who have been ticketed in other counties sometimes think they can pay double the fines to keep tickets off their records, but Sharma-Crawford said that wasn't the case.
"Johnson County may let someone pay double, but we don't," she said.
According to the speeding ticket reduction policy in the district attorney's office, speeds more than 100 mph will not be reduced. There is a five-mile buffer zone in 55 to 65 mph zones and no buffer zone for posted speed limits of 50 mph and below.
In 65 mph zones and below, people with no moving violations can receive a 10-mile reduction. People with no more than three moving violations on their records can receive a five-mile reduction.

Schwab said she doubted that ConAgra would choose to rebuild in Garden City — local government and business owners hope other wise.
Tony Sumaya, Garden City senior, has relatives who worked at the ConAgra plant.
"A lot of families moved to Texas or Oklahoma," Sumaya said. "If everyone has to move, they'll lose a lot of funding and aid. Pretty much all those families know is working at a beef plant."
Steve Dyer, director of membership services at the Garden City Chamber of Commerce, said more than $3,000 had been donated to the community and that the United Way was administering the aid to help ConAgra's employees with rent, utilities and food.
A model for change
The city's expansion because of the plants is apparent when passers-by roll into town. An Applebee's just opened across the highway from the SuperWal-mart. There is also a Lone Star Steakhouse and a Golden Corral.

Garden City, located in Finney County, is about 400 miles southwest of Lawrence.

Typical restaurants in a cowtown.
But ethnic foods diversify the dining scene — La Playa Dorado, known as The Golden Beach to most Anglos, is an El Salvadoran seafood restaurant tucked into a strip mall. The Asian Plaza across town features a Vietnamese grocery store and a Vietnamese noodle shop with a golden Buddha behind the cash register and a disco ball hanging from the ceiling.
Diverse fare for a western Kansas town.
In fact, experts say that other cities in the nation should look to the city as a model.
Garden Citians are used to handling change successfully. The transition from a typical midwestern cowtown to a diverse city was also relatively smooth.
Don Stull, KU professor of anthropology, studied Garden City in 1987 as part of a Ford Foundation grant. Since then, Stull has studied other
cities changing because of the meatpacking plants.
"It's a model for dealing with changing ethnic, linguistic and cultural worlds," Stull said. "A lot of

A lot of the city's success can be attributed to the proactive steps taken by social services and the ministerial alliance, Stull said. The school district also passed bond issues to build schools before the immigrants came to work in the plants.
other communities are experiencing the same things but haven't for as long. It hasn't necessarily handled them all well, but they've been thoughtful."
Roxie Thompson teaches English as a Second Language at Victor Ornelas Elementary, a school with a mostly ethnic population.
The Hispanic and Asian students
in her class are eager to learn and recite the days of the week in Spanish, Vietnamese and English. Thompson said the respect given to all languages often taught students to respect one another's culture, too.
Some children in the lower grades can speak their numbers in Spanish, English, Vietnamese and Lao.
Linda Walker, kindergarten teacher, said she thought the elementary population was getting more diverse.
"I've got some blondies now because there are houses being built around when there used to just be the trailer park," she said. "The kids don't see the differences. They can play in any language — it doesn't matter to them."
The diversity at Victor Ornelas is apparent throughout the district. Two elementary schools are bilingual and last year's kindergarten class was more than 70 percent ethnic.
Four different languages mark the signs in the high school hallways which offers three levels of ESL classes — Level 1 is the class for students with little to no understanding of English. Most of the students — from El Salvador, Nicaragua, Mexico, Honduras, Laos and Somalia — had only been in Garden City since school started in August.
Helping hands
Other public service agencies are trying to overcome language and
cultural barriers. James Hawkins, chief of police, first came to Garden City in 1979 as an ESL teacher. In 1983 he decided to use his Spanish-language skills in law enforcement.
Hawkins said the department used translators for most cases, but if it ran into a language that no one could translate, they had subscribed to an AT&T language line that can access interpreters for 140 languages in 20 minutes.
"We do a tremendous amount of translating materials into other languages," he said. "If we can't translate oursels, we have someone else do it."
The packing plant's insurance covers the family's medical expenses. Their oldest son died of a genetic degenerative disorder four years ago. Now their remaining son, Fabian, suffers from the same disease. He is kept at home, in bed, most of the time because his immune system is weakened. When kids at school catch a cold, Fabian will inevitably come down with pneumonia. Although Fabian's disease can not be cured, Maria says that her son would not have the same level of care in Mexico.
The hard work and money at the meatpacking plants bought Victor and Maria Felix their two-bedroom house and new pick-up truck. To earn the money for the downpayment for the house, Victor worked two shifts at IBP and ConAgra — going to work at 5 a.m. and getting home at 1:30 a.m. He works on the kill floor at IBP — one of the most exhausting and dangerous jobs in the plant — for $13 an hour.
Toan Nguyen arrived in Garden City from a refugee camp in 1981 and started work as a plumber's helper three days later. In 1994, he started his own plumbing business.
"It's a good place because we come here with nothing," Nguyen said. "I came here with $5 — that's it. The community has treated us well."
Garden City has more to offer than work in meatpacking plants.
Being the only minority plumbing company has its difficulties.

"I'm trying to compete with other American companies," Nguyen said. "In a small town, business spreads by word of mouth and I don't go down and hang out at the coffee shops."
Nguyen said that just challenged him to deliver a better product to his customers.
Keeping one's culture and language is also something Garden City promotes — with two bilingual elementary schools. Thompson said teachers at Ornelas urge students to retain their culture.
"We want them to speak their home language at home — not English," she said. When children start speaking English at home, Thompson said the bond between parent and child was often broken because most mothers don't speak English.
Underlying tension
Not everyone likes the changes that have happened in the area.
Crime is up in Garden City — and some of the citizens blame the crime on the immigrant population.
ALEXANDRA BROADWAY
But James Hawkins, chief of police, said the increase couldn't be blamed on the meatpacking plants.
Toan Nguyen came from Vietnam to Garden City in 1981 with next to nothing and since has started his own plumbing business. The variety of ethnic groups in Garden City has made it easier for an individual like Naiven to succeed.
"When the population grows as quickly as ours has, so will the crime rate," Hawkins said. "But there is a transient nature in the population that goes along with the types of employment that are available. When there is a high degree of transiency and a low degree of community ownership, it leads to crime and victimization."
Hawkins also said there was gang activity in the community, but since a gang-related homicide in 1994, law enforcement has formed anti-gang task forces and established a no-tolerance policy for gangs.
He said some of the gangs were ethnically based, but members came from all backgrounds.
"I think there's a little racial tension, Hawkins said. "I'd be lying if I didn't say there some. There's also intra-ethnic tensions. For the most part, though, I think Garden City could get along with almost anyone."
Hawkins said there were at least 5,000 to 6,000 illegal immigrants living and working in Garden City.
"We don't do anything with the documented workers — that's INS' concern," Hawkins said. "It doesn't affect our position on law enforcement at all. They usually get jobs and are supporting themselves whether it's legal or not."
Isela Lermia, community developer at Mexican American Ministries in Garden City, said that immigration laws have become more strict — in effect, the laws are tearing up families.
Until 1998, illegal immigrants could petition for citizenship, but had to pay a fine. Now an illegal immigrant has to go through naturalization proceedings in his country of origin. If he has been the United States for more than six months, the proceedings take at least three years. If the immigrant has been in the United States more than one year, the petition for citizenship lasts for 10 years, she said. It doesn't matter if the person is married to a U.S. citizen.
Most parents work to get out of the meatpacking plants.
Numbers of former meatpacking plant employees now work for schools, hospitals and businesses.
"It's good for the children because the mom and dad have easier jobs so they're in a better mood," Thompson said.
Lupe Dorras, a paraprofessional at the elementary, worked on the trip area of a meatpacking plant for five years. Then she moved to a different job in the freezer.
"It was so monotonous and I thought 'Is this what I'm going to be doing for the rest of my life?' I still have nightmares about getting to work late."
Dorras said although she was hap pier working at the school, the plants provided many families with jobs.
"We had seven kids at home — we could ask for extra work or ask for welfare. The meatpacking plants are what are providing our jobs, to because if we didn't have them, they wouldn't need the school."

Conference coaches react to fatal wreck

Two days after a plane carrying eight passengers associated with Oklahoma State University and two pilots crashed. Big 12 Conference coaches expressed their regret about the accident.
"First of all, my heart goes out to the families," said Colorado coach Ricardo Patton. "Things like this always catch you off-guard and by surprise. It's difficult to think that people we just saw less than 10 hours ago were stricken by such tragedy."
While much of the talk surrounded sympathy for the friends and relatives of those killed in the crash, all the coaches said they had talked

to their players about safety concerns.
"We talked to our players last night about air travel, and we discussed that it is still the safest form of travel, but we also stressed that our No.1 concern is the safety of all our student-athletes," said Texas Tech coach James Dickey. "We stayed overnight on Saturday in Columbia because of that reason."
Throughout the year, every school in the Big 12 charters a plane or jet instead of taking the larger commercial airlines. The charter planes allow flexibility with schedules, and help players get back for classes as soon as possible.
Oklahoma State chartered three planes for the trip home — two corporate jets and an 11-passenger King Air 200 turboprop. Stillwater airport manager Gary Johnson said the turboprop would have been less likely to get above the bad weather the planes were flying through.

When the weather turns bad, the question of safety becomes a prime concern for all involved.
"We talked to (the players) last night and had a prayer for the people at Oklahoma State," said Kansas coach Roy Williams. "We'll do some of that before we get on a plane again. I'll make sure that our kids feel extremely comfortable. We have to see how the kids feel and how the coaches feel and hope the weather is good. I can assure you if the weather is bad, we are not going to take any chances. We never have."

Last season, because of a storm front moving through northern Texas, the Oklahoma basketball team chose to take an eight-and-a-half hour bus trip back to Norman, instead of hoping the weather cleared up.
Williams and Missouri coach Quin Snyder wore the ribbons last night during the Kansas and Missouri game in Columbia, Mo.
"It kept them off the smaller aircraft," said Oklahoma coach Kelvin Sampson.
Announceers of Big 12 basketball games will wear Oklahoma State's colors — black and orange — on ribbons in honor of those who died in the crash.
However, Sampson was quick to act when one of his players recommended taking a bus to Waco, Texas for an upcoming game against Baylor. Spoons will fly to Waco.
the Sooner's crash killed Last weekend's crash Oklahoma State players Nate Fleming and Dan Lawson.
The other eight members killed in the crash were: Sports information employee and KU graduate Will Hancock, director of basketball operations Pat Noyes, trainer and KU graduate Brian Luinstra, student manager Jared Weiberg, broadcast engineer Kendall Durfey, broadcaster Bill Teegins, pilot Denver Mills and co-pilot Bjorn Fialstrom.
The Big 12 has announced memorial plans for the rest of the season. A moment of silence will be observed before both men's and women's games for the remainder of the season.

Kansas crumbles
Tigers hand 'Hawks first conference loss
By Chris Wristen sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportwriter
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Missouri proved to be a giant-killer as No. 3 Kansas lost to the Tigers 75-66 on Norm Stewart Night at the Hearnes Center last night.
Stewart, Missouri's legendary former coach and the seventh-winningest coach in NCAA history, had his jersey retired at halftime when the Tigers led, 37-23. As his jersey drifted into the rafters during the second half, it looked as if the Stewart Spirit would carry Missouri to an easy win.
Trailing 43-26 with 18 minutes left in the game, Kansas appeared to be down for the count, and the Missouri crowd was ready to celebrate the Tigers' fifth win against Kansas in Columbia in the last six years.
The Jayhawks were anything but done.
Kansas (17-2 overall and 6-1 in the Big 12 Conference) launched its biggest comeback of the season, unleashing an 18-0 run during the next six minutes while Missouri (14-5 and 5-2) was kept scoreless and turned the ball over five times.
"For the first 10 or 12 minutes of the second half we played really
Kansas guard Jeff Boschee drained two 3-pointers in that stretch before teammate Kirk Hinrich capped the run with a trey that gave the Jayhawks their first lead since the 18-minute mark of the first half.
well, but that was about it for the whole game," said Kansas coach Roy Williams.
Just as Kansas looked like it was taking command and was poised to finish the Tigers, Missouri guard Brian Grauer forced a change of plans. The 6-foot senior nailed a 3-pointer that gave Missouri a 54-10 lead.
Soon after, Kansas had defensive meltdowns on back-to-back plays and left Graver open for two wide-open threes. In 27 seconds he had expanded the Tigers lead to nine points and left the Javahaws shell-shocked.
"Those were huge," Hinrich said. "We were doing a great job on them overall. Kareem (Rush) had a good night, but I still thought we were doing a fairly good job, but those were a back-breaker."
The Jayhawks could have been finished early if not for the second-half run. Missouri fired the grill early and started cooking in the opening minutes while Kansas hung out in the freezer. Three minutes into the game Missouri claimed a 10-2 lead. Meanwhile, the Jayhawks missed five of their first seven shots.
Missouri wasn't much more accurate, hitting 44 percent, but the Tigers became the second team to outbound the Jayhawks this season.
"We just came out a little tight," said Kansas forward Nick Collison. "We had good looks but we just weren't making them. We were ready to
play, just offensively we weren't hitting shots."
Kansas, the nation's top shooting team coming into the game, struggled in hitting 42 percent of its shots. Kansas forward Drew Gooden led all Jayhawk scorers with
41-37, Grawer finished with 14 points for the Tigers and Clarence Gilbert added 12.
Next up for Kansas is a Saturday home game against Texas at noon.

'Hawks lose triangular track meet
NB NCAA
INDOOR TRACK
CHAMPIONSHIPS
By Michael Sudhalter
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas track and field team challenged two of its closest rivals Friday at the KU/KSU/MU Triangular Meet in Columbia, Mo., the team's first scored meet of the season.

The Jayhawks, who scored 168 points, finished behind Kansas State, 283 points, and Missouri, 253 points, in their campaign to win the "Jug," the trophy awarded to the triangular's champion.
Despite several strong performances, coach Stanley Redwine said the team lacked the depth of the other two squads at the triangular.
Two members of the women's team turned in first place finishes in Tiger territory, Junior Shanetta March won the 200-meter dash in 24.97 seconds and senior all-American Andrea Branson continued her string of solid performances by winning the pole vault with a 12-0 vault. The women's 4x400-meter relay team also won its event with a time of 3 minutes, 52.12 seconds.
"Some of our athletes ran very well today, and we are excited for them." Redwine said. "I think our lack of depth hurt us as far as our team score, but we are happy with the effort and progress that this team has made so far this season."
For the men's team, senior Jabari Wamble had a remarkable showing by winning the 400-meter dash (49.51), 200-meter dash (22.03) and running a leg in the Jayhawks' first place 4x400-meter relay team (31.973). Freshman Leo Bookman, who had a strong performance at the Missouri Invitational, won the 60-mometer dash in 6.93 seconds while sophomore Anson Jackson won the 60-meter hurdles (8.30), and junior Jeremy Hull was victorious in the pole vault (15-11). Junior Brett Behrens won the 300-meter event in
8:30.62.
Behrens said he was looking forward to next week's competition in Lawrence.
"I feel like everybody did the best they could today." Behrens said. "Our home meet will be nice because we will be able to run in front of the home crowd."
The men's squad also competed in Columbia without four of its best athletes, senior all-American Charlie Gruber, senior all-American Scott Russell, junior Ryan Speers, and senior Andy Tate. Redwine sent those four competitors to the Arkansas Invitational in Fayetteville on Friday and Saturday to better prepare them for the NCAA Championships.
Although their absences may have hurt the Jayhawks' score in Columbia, the individual performances gave Gruber (mile) an automatic qualifier for NCAAs and provisional qualifiers for Speers (shot put) and Tate (3,000 meters).
70-1 3/4 toss. Gruber's 4:00:79 mile effort moved him into second place on Kansas' all-time record behind Jim Ryun's 3:57.5 standard.
Redwine said the team was continuing its improvement from previous meets.
Speers placed third in the shot put with a 58-8 throw while Russell, who
already qualified for the NCAAs, finished second in the weight throw with a
"We had several solid performances today, and I am happy with the results," Redwine said.

Betting options add temptation for college fans
Betcha I can get you betting before the end of this column — it's illegal you say?
Tell that to the thousands of office pools who thought that Kerry Collins wouldn't have five interceptions in the Giants' Super Bowl loss.
Or to those who bet that Roy wouldn't be coming back to Allen Fieldhouse (shameless Kansas tiein) or that Rocky and Bullwinkle would be a box-office success. All right, so maybe Dionne Warwick lied to me when she told me about that last one.
No matter if it's betting on football or if I'll ever get my tattoo, it's illegal to do any form of gambling unless you do so in an organized facility (boat or casino). Granted, it's not as bad as stealing pink sugar packets from restaurants — my mom would get nailed for that.
But underground gambling can't really be monitored — I just bet my editor five bucks that I'd have this column done by noon. I lost, but I don't see any men in blue coming to arrest me.
Then there's the various places to throw down your money: online, the old-fashioned trek to Vegas or driving to the casinos in Kansas City.
Everyone has his or her method to pick a winner: the Psychic Friends Network, a friend that was struck by lightning and can predict the future (think Screech on Saved by the Bell) or simply a gut feeling (just make sure it isn't the pizza from Wescoe talking).
All these forms entice people to gamble on obscure sporting events they can't control - don't they ever get a clue? Cubs fans need to catch on more quickly that they'll never win the World Series.
As if compulsive gamblers didn't have enough problems restraining themselves come March Madness, along comes a move by the Nevada Gaming Commission to expand the scope of college-based betting.
Just last week, the ban placed on betting on college games involving Nevada Schools was lifted. I don't need to read the stars to be able to predict more sanctions for UNLV basketball in the future.
It's like dangling TV time in an episode of Toughman on FX in front of William "The Fridge" Perry. He just couldn't resist.
I just don't see the compulsive thrill of betting on sports. Sure, I was in an NCAA pool, but Florida knocking off Duke doused my chances last year.
And I was going to put some money down that the Packers would get back to their old Super Bowl form next season before Mark Chumura kind of messed that one up.
Instead, maybe I should just bet on things that can be controlled, like celebrity dating — I give Angelina Jolie's marriage to Billy Bob a few more months. Anyone that tattoos their spouse's name on their respective arms is just asking for trouble.
But I can say that Roy will be around another season. And the DVD version of Rocky and Bullwinkle probably won't do that well.
And I will get my tattoo this semester.
You can bet on that.

Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
After averaging 6.5 points in his first 15 games of the season, Raymond has increased his scoring averaged to 23.7 points in his last three outings. In the 75-68 win against Texas last week, Raymond scored 28 points.
Raymond topped that by scoring 25 points in the 77-66 victory against Nebraska. During the week Raymond was 11-for-20 from three-point range, which included six treys against Nebraska.
Harrison opened the week by making four three-point field goals in the 85-75 loss to then-No. 4 Kansas. In a 81-71 win against Oklahoma State, Harrison scored 13 points on 4-of-9 shooting. For the week he averaged 19.5 points, including shooting 10-of-12 from the free-throw line, and 4.5 rebounds in two games. Harrison ranks fifth in the Big 12 with a 17 points per game scoring average.
Raymond is the first player from Oklahoma who has won the honor since Eduardo Najera won it twice last season.
NEW YORK — A lopsided game with little offense from either team dragged the television rating down to one of the Super Bowl's lowest in 30 years.
CBS Sports' telecast of the Baltimore Ravens' 34-7 victory against the New York Giants registered a national rating of 40.3 with a record-low 60 share from 5:30 to 7:53 p.m. Sunday.
Super Bowl's ratings hit lowest in 30 years
That means an average of 40.3 percent of the country's TV homes were watching at any given moment, while 60 percent of the in-use televisions were tuned to the game.
Still, CBS estimates 130 million people watched at least a portion of the 2001 Super Bowl.
The rating for Sunday's game — which had the advantage of a team from the country's biggest market, New York, and the disadvantage of two East Coast teams — was down about 7 percent from last year's Super Bowl on ABC.
The lowest pregame share for any Super Bowl was 61, in 1999 (on Fox) and in 1992 (the last time CBS televised the game).

which he should have known "was likely to cause embarrassment to Mr. Camby and his mother," according to the settlement.
Based on Camby's admissions that he took valuables from Spears and agent John Lounsbury while he played at Massachusetts, the NCAA stripped the school of its 1996 regional championship and ordered it to return the money it earned by reaching the Final Four.

NCAA rules prohibit college players from accepting gifts from potential agents.
The settlement said the lawyer "provided services and benefits to or on behalf of Mr. Camby after he declared his eligibility for the NBA draft" after the 1995-96 college season.
Spears also did not admit to Camby's claim that he tried to black mail the player. Camby told police that Spears had taken photographs of him with a naked woman at Speers' West Hartford home.
Besides imposing a reprimand, the grievance committee ordered Spears to take a course in legal ethics.
Spears did not admit to Camby's claim that he gave the player about $5,300 worth of jewelry and the services of a prostitute while Camby played at UMass.
Neither Spears nor his lawyer,
Hubert J. Santos, returned messages left at their offices yesterday.
Based on Camby's accusations, Spears was charged in December 1996 with attempted extortion and promoting prostitution.
The lawyer could have faced up to 20 years in prison if convicted. But he was admitted to the state's accelerated rehabilitation program, which requires no admission of guilt.
After two years on probation and performing community service, the charges against Spears were dismissed in 1999. A reprimand is the least severe discipline that can be imposed on a lawyer for ethical misconduct.

Miami coach resigns
The Associated Press
BEREA, Ohio — Football coach Butch Davis, who led the University of Miami Hurricanes to a No. 2 ranking last season, resigned yesterday to coach the Cleveland Browns.
Team president Carmen Policy said Davis would be introduced at a news conference today at the Browns' training facility.
"The Browns organization is extremely pleased to have Butch Davis as our next coach." Policy said in a statement.
Davis had been listed as a possible Brown's coach since the team fired Chris Palmer on Jan. 11.
Paul Dee, Miami athletic director, said he was disappointed about Davis' resignation.
"I think coach Davis had a lot to give UM, and I'm pleased at the success we had," he said.
Dee said offensive coordinator Larry Coker had been named Miami's interim head coach.
Davis told the Hurricanes' players of his decision yesterday morning and then headed to Cleveland. His departure came one week before the end of the college signing period.
Marvin Demoff, Davis' agent, said after arriving in Cleveland that Davis had not yet signed a contract with the Brown's, but both sides were "in serious discussions."
For weeks, Davis had been denying he would leave Miami, where he had been working on a contract extension with the university. The Brown's also denied they had a secret meeting with Davis in Florida.
Just last week, the Brownsaid they were focusing their search on NFL assistants, all but ruling out the possibility of hiring Davis, Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops or Washington coach Rick Neushelse.
Browns owner Al Lerner shot down reports that Davis was coming to Cleveland, saying, "There is no Butch Davis."
Davis, 49, was in the fourth year of a seven-year contract at Miami and had nearly agreed to a five-year extension at the university. Davis met with Dee last weekend and said the sides only had to work out a few details on the contract.
Davis coached the Hurricanes since 1995, and turned around Miami's troubled program after it was hit with numerous NCAA violations.
This season, he led the Hurricanes to an 11-1 record and a 37-20 rout of Florida in the Sugar Bowl on Jan. 2.
Davis will have his work cut out for him with the Browns, who are coming off a 3-13 season and have gone 5-27 in their first two years back in the league.

Cornhuskers fall to Sooners
By Zoc Hunter
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
The Nebraska Cornhuskers (9-10 overall and 2-4 in the Big 12 Conference) couldn't overcome the Oklahoma offense or their own mistakes in Saturday's 77-66 loss to the Sooners in Norman, Okla. No. 24 Oklahoma (15-4 and 4-3) is on a athee-game winning streak, while Nebraska has lost seven of the last nine.
"It's a nice feeling to have a three-game winning streak right now," said Oklahoma coach Kelvin Sampson. "A week ago, we had lost two straight games. And now our kids are playing better and improving and that is still my main focus presently."
J. R. Raymond sparked the Oklahoma offense in the first half, scoring 20 of his 25 points in the first 20 minutes.
"For the first time in a long time, I finally played the way I'm capable of playing," Raymond said. "We came out of the gates with a lot of energy and enthusiasm. We were ready to go."
Poor shooting from the field and the line kept the 'fuskers from making a serious run at Oklahoma. Nebraska was just 3-14 from the field in the last 14 minutes of the second half, and shot 15-27 from the free-throw line.
Colorado upsets Oklahoma State The Buffaloes (13-7 and 3-4) had five players score in double figures as they ended Oklahoma State's five-game winning streak with an 81-71 win Saturday in Boulder, Colo.
Colorado forward Jamahl Mosley scored 20 points and pulled down 11 boards.
Maurice Baker, who had a game-high 27 points, led the Cowboys (13-4 and 4-2).
Texas rolled by No. 7 Arizona
Texas tolered by No. 14 Arizona.
Maybe taking a break from Big 12 Conference play wasn't the best idea for the Texas Longhorns (15-5). The Wildcats (14-5) stretched their winning streak to six games in Saturday's 80-52 pounding of Texas.
Arizona bolted out to a 21-6 lead and never looked back. Texas didn't have the firepower to hang in the game, as it made just 22-71 shots from the field.
Chris Owens was the lone bright spot for the Longhorns, scoring 19
points and collecting 17 rebounds. However, those 19 points came at a high price, because Owens hit just eight out of 25 shots.
No. 15 Iowa State cruises against Texas A&M
Jake Sullivan led a balanced scoring attack with 14 points and Iowa State hit 21-of-25 free throws as the No. 17 Cyclones rolled to a 72-53 victory at Texas A&M on Sunday.
The Cyclones (17-3 and 5-2) controlled the game from the start, hitting their first 11 free-throws against the undersized Aggies (6-13 and 0-7), who lost their seventh-straight game and dropped to 0-5 all-time against Iowa State.
The crowd at Reed Arena observed a moment of silence before the game in honor of 10 people, including two Oklahoma State basketball players, who died in a plane crash Saturday night while returning from a game in Colorado.
Martin Rancik scored 13 points, Jamaal Tinsley added 11, and Tyra Pearson had 10 points for the Cyclones.

Baylor women bounce back into Top 25
Edited by Leila Schultes
Bv Brandon Stinnett
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
It's clear Baylor didn't like being ousted from the women's Top 25 poll last week.
How else do you explain the Bears' dominance against ranked teams in their last two games?
Baylor's 73-51 win at No. 21 Texas on Saturday came just three days after handing No. 8 Iowa State its first Big 12 Conference loss of the season, 79-74
If Baylor was trying to send a message to Associated Press pollsters, it worked. The Bears re-entered the poll this week at No. 20, which marked the first time the Big 12 has had six ranked teams at one time.
Baylor snapped a three-game losing skid with the wins and moved to 4-3 in the Big 12.
The Bears can attribute a lot of their success to forward Danielle Crockrom, who has scored 56 points in the last two games. Crockrom's 22.7 points per game ranks seventh in the nation.
Baylor (15-3 overall and 4-3 in the Big 12) got a big lift from freshman Jessika Stratton, who matched a career-high 17 points off the-bench against Texas.
Bench-scoring accounted for 20 points against Texas (15-6 and 3-4).
"That's what we needed," Crockrom said. "Our bench has helped us tremendously."
No. 10 Sooners rip No. 12 Red Raiders
No. 10 Oklahoma came on top in a battle of Big 12 superpowers with an 84-66 victory against No. 12 Texas Tech on Sunday in Norman, Okla.
Oklahoma (15-4 and 6-1), which never trailed in the game, was lethal from the field, knocking down 59 percent of its shots. Caton Hill led the Sooners with 22 points and Stacey Dales added 21.
The win put Alabama (15-4 and 6-1) in a tie with Iowa State (16-2 and 6-1) and Texas Tech (15-3 and 6-1) for first place in the Big 12 standings.
No. 8 Cyclones trounce No. 23 Buffaloes
No. 8 Iowa State rebounded from its
loss to Baylor with a 95-61 shellacking of No. 23 Colorado (14-4 and 5-2) on Saturday in front of a season-high 12,962 fans at the Hilton Coliseum in Ames, Iowa.
Angie Welle scored 28 points and Megan Taylor added 23 as the Cyclones halted the Buffaloes' five-game winning streak.
Hot shooting fueled Iowa State in the game. The Cyclones made 65 percent of their shots, including 12-of-15 from behind the arc.
Cowgirls conquer Aggies
Oklahoma State rolled past Texas A&M on Saturday, 85-69, thanks to 61 points from bench scoring.
Junior Jessica Bates led Oklahoma State with 18 points and was one of five Cowgirls in double figures.
Junior guard Mandy Stuber scored a career-high 16 points off-the-bench after missing the previous two games.
Texas A&M was led by Jaynetta Saunders, who scored a game-high 31 points.

Second Survivor makes its debut
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Figs anyone? An estimated 42 million people watched that unappetizing meal tried by a member of the second Survivor crew.
A hungry contestant on the first episode bit into the fig, then quickly spit it out after discovering the fruit was infested with hundreds of crawling bugs. On the first Survior, adventurous diners ate rat.
CBS said the preliminary Nielsen Media Research ratings for Survivor: The Australian Outback might have been even higher if the Super Bowl's second half had been more competitive and the game show had started earlier than 10.17 p.m. on the East Coast. Ratings for Survivor were higher in the West, where it started three hours earlier.
The preliminary viewership figure was based on an overnight sample of 47 cities. Complete national ratings were due yesterday.
The show's structure was reassuringly familiar but the people and setting provided the contrast from the first Survivor, the television phenomenon that drew 51 million people to its climactic episode last August.
Sixteen scheming strangers — split into the Kucha and Ogakor tribes — began competing for a $1 million prize. Debb Eaton, a 45-year-old corrections officer from Berlin, N.H., had the dubious distinction of being the first voted out.
"She's not somebody in the outside world that I'd talk to because she'd make me crazy," Long Island, N.Y., bartender Kimmi Kappenberg said before voting to eat Eaton.
Even before Eaton was sent away, Survivor got down to the serious business of creating heroes and villains, showing which contestants irritated others and which were working hard.
Eaton's Kucha tribo lost the first immunity challenge badly. Both teams had to cross three portions of the Herbert River in desolate northeastern Australia carrying a torch to light a bonfire.
The first outback Survivor will be repeated Wednesday at 7 p.m. before the limited series moves to its regular slot — opposite NBC's Friends on Thursday at 7 p.m.

Wreck investigation continues
Officials question if plane was deiced
The Associated Press
BYERS, Colo. — After spending a snowy day walking through a mile of scattered wreckage, aviation investigators focused on whether a plane used by Oklahoma State had been deiced before takeoff.

painstaking work ahead of us in what are not the best weather conditions," said John Hammerschmidt, head of the National Transportation Safety Board crash investigation team, on Sunday.
OSu
Ten people, including two Oklahoma State basketball players and six staff members, were killed Saturday when the twinengine plane crashed into a field. The plane had taken off from Jefferson County Airport in light snow with a visibility of
one mile.
The crew was told ice could form on the wings, but investigators said conditions were not harsh enough for authorities to ground the plane.
Federal investigators planned yesterday to interview the maintenance crews who worked on the plane before takeoff, those who spoke with the plane's crew just before takeoff and the pilots of the two planes that arrived safely in Stillwater, Okla.
The Beechecraft King Air 200 Catpass was one of three planes carrying the school's basketball team and associates back to Stillwater after a loss to Colorado in Boulder.
No distress call was made before the crash, said Arnold Scott of the NTSB.
Among the victims were Oklahoma State players Nate Fleming and Daniel Lawson and Pay Noyes, director of basketball operations.
Will Hancock, media relations coordinator, and athletic trainer Brian Luinstra, both University of Kansas graduates, also were killed in the crash.
Hancock graduated from the University in 1991, and Lustrapt

graduated in 1994.
Oklahoma State said its basketball schedule would be completed.
Witnesses said the plane climbed and banked hard to the right before it crashed. They told investigators the propeller plane's engines revved and eased several times before the fiery crash in a field about 40 miles east of Denver.
"It sounded like he was flying full power," said Jon Carrick, who lives about two miles from the crash site. "Then I heard a thump and saw a low glow."
Also killed was student manager Jared Weiberg, the nephew of Big 12 commissioner Kevin Weiberg; broadcast engineer Kendall Durfey, broadcaster Bill Teegins, pilot Denver Mills and co-pilot Biorn Fahlstrom.
The victims' bodies were removed. During the next few days, the engines, de-icing boots and other pieces of the wreckage are scheduled to be taken to a hangar in Gruel, where investigators were to create a mock-up of the plane.

Kansas dazed by ranked teams
By Agron Johnson
The men's tennis team was caught up in a whirlwind of nationally ranked opponents last weekend.
The No. 61 Jayhawks lost to both No. 37 Louisville and No. 57 Middle Tennessee State, but managed to beat No. 48 Arkansas-Little Rock on Saturday and Sunday at the Alvamar Racquet Club.
The matches moved Kansas' record to 3-2 on the season.
Yet, Kansas coach Ross Nwachukw said he was pleased with his team's competitive edge despite the loss.
The match came down to a third-set tie-breaker between Kansas' Alex Barragan and Middle Tennessee State's Mark Pellerin. Pellerin eventually pulled out the grueling victory 1-6, 6-4 (10-7) at Kansas' expense.
The Jayhawks' final match Sunday afternoon against the Middle Tennessee State Blue Raiders marked possibly their toughest test of the weekend.
"Our guys were ready to play,
KANSAS TENNIS
we competed very hard," he said
we competed very hard.
Sunday afternoon's match also provided a marque matchup between Kansas' Rodrigo Echagaray and Middle Tennessee's Daniel Klemetz, the nation's 10th-ranked player.
Echagaray forced a tie-breaker before falling in the No. 1 singles match 6-3, 1-6, 1-0 (10-1).
The matchup against Middle Tennessee was just one of three weekend matches for the Javahwaks.
Saturday began with a match against Louisville. Kansas fell 4-3 in dramatically close fashion to open the tournament.
That match was the scene for another exciting one between Blakeney and Louisville's Cody Conley. Blakeney defeated Conley in a third set tie-breaker 6-4, 4-6, 10 (14-12).
Nwachukwu said that he was impressed with Blakeney's undefeated record during the tournament.
"All the guys played real hard, especially Quentin Boney," he
said. "He played very good tennis this weekend."
Kansas earned a 4-1 victory against the Troians.
Kansas captured its lone win of the tournament in an upset against Arkansas-Little Rock on Saturday night.
The second and third doubles matches secured an early point for the 'Hawks. Blakeney and Stroer defeated the Trojans' Luciano Diez and Alexe Poutchinets 8-4 while Alex Barragan and Andrew Metzler defeated Juan Carlos Baca and Mithun Murual, 8-2.
Nwachukwu expressed satisfaction with the team's conditioning and preparation going into the weekend.
"As a team we were definitely very motivated to come into the tournament and competed very hard," he said.
Kansas' next competition will be Saturday, Feb. 10 in Bloomington, Ind., against Indiana and Butler.
In doubles play, the team of Echagary and Magallan will compete in the Rolex National Indoor Championships on Wednesday, Feb. 1 through 4 in Dallas.

Police coerced student confession, attorney says
WWW.KANSAN.COM
By Lauren Brandenburg
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Testimony continued yesterday to determine whether a student accused of kissing and fondling a female student in a Hashinger Hall lobby in August voluntarily wrote a confession to KU Public Safety officers
The hearing on the defense's motion to throw out the confession in the case of Kevin Hoskinson, Garden City junior, began Jan. 19. After three hours of testimony yesterday morning, the hearing was continued until 9 a.m. today, when Defense Attorney Sally Howard said Hoskinson would testify.
Howard's contention has been that Hoskinson's diagnosis of schizophrenia means that his confession to police cannot be considered voluntary. She implied that officers had intimidated her client in interviews when they told him things such as, "We are going to get
you because we know you did it."
Det. Mike Riner, who said he had worked as a detective at the Public Safety Office for 21 years, confirmed Jan. 19 that those were his words to Hoskinson.
Riner also testified that Hoskinson told off cers he thought they had treated him "fine."
Howard questioned why officers did not adjust their procedures once Hoskinson told them he had schizophrenia. Riner said he and another officer initially contacted Hoskinson in his Hashinger room, and Hoskinson agreed to do an interview at the Public Safety Office. At no time, Riner testified, was Hoskinson coerced into answering questions or giving statements.
Both Riner and Capt. Vic Strrad, who gave Hoskinson a polygraph examination, said yesterday that Hoskinson told them he understood the officers' questions and the interviews' circumstances.
were trying to control his mind during the interview. Haskinson thought the officers' fundamental attitude toward him was that he was guilty.
Spiridiglizozi said Hoskinson had told him the police were yelling at him and were "in his face." But police testified that at least four to six feet separated them from Hoskinson during each interview, interviews during which they never raised their voices.
Spiridigliozzi said police should have noticed within one hour that Hoskinson's responses didn't line up with their questions.
He said Hoskinson took things very literally, and police telling Hoskinson he was guilty probably confused him.
"I believe that basically Mr. Hokinson gave the confession in an effort to comply with the
"Based on their information I have, it's most likely a false confession, yes," Spiridiglizozi testified. "I don't think it was given knowingly and voluntarily."
officers and that it was fabricated on his part," Sniridiglodzi said.
He said Hoskinson trusted authority and wanted to commily with the officers.
Another point of contention was Riner's perceptions of people's statements. Riner testified that he understood from Hoskinson's roommate, Chris Bumr, Independence, Kan., junior, that Hoskinson took things so literally that he believed a girl saying "Til see you later" meant that she would go to bed with him. Riner said Bunn had implied that through his facial expressions and hand gestures in the conversation.
Bunn testified, however, that although he believed Hoskinson interpreted the statement literally, he did not think Hoskinson expected anv intimate contact.
The hearing is expected to end today with Hoskinson's testimony.

"Only a garbage truck passed us," Diego said. "The bus was supposed to come at 8:10, and it didn't show. We were all waiting out there for about 25 minutes. It was cold, and the weather was not nice."
The bus never came, Diego said. A Sundance resident drove a few of the students to campus in his minivan, a ride that got Diego to campus 10 minutes late, she said.
Holly Krebs, director of KU on Wheels, said incidents like Friday's didn't normally happen.
"On that route, there's an 8 o'clock bus and a 9 o'clock bus, and we send out extras at 10 (minutes) after because that's the busiest time of the morning," Krebs said. "It's my understanding that the bus showed up at 8 o'clock and none of those students were outside yet. The extra was running late."
Diego said that she had no trouble slipping into her class late but that others waiting for the bus hadn't been so lucky.
"Since I have a big lecture class, no one really notices who walks in." Diego said. "A couple people gave up and just skipped class. And a few other people had quizzes and they had to call their teachers about it."
Krebs said KU on Wheels normally sent an extra bus, van or car to a missed bus stop to escort students to campus when the scheduled bus had mechanical trouble.
"There's been quite a few times that buses run behind," Krebs said. "A bus gets a flat or there's a mechanical problem. We start another bus on the route, but there's usually a 15-minute delay."
Extreme weather also affects bus performances, she said.
"We've had several buses break down in the cold weather." Krebs said. "At the beginning of the school year, when we had that week of hundred-degree weather, they broke down, too."
Finding drivers isn't a problem, Krebs said. If drivers are sick or are late getting to work, supervisors will cover their shifts for a few hours so students aren't affected.
"When a bus is behind, we want to make sure people are picked up in a timely manner and that we get students to school on time," she said.
University to fight tuition fee payments by credit card
By Cassio Furtado writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
A new state law requires the University of Kansas to accept credit cards for tuition and fee payments, but KU administrators want to challenge it.
Students at the University haven't been able to use credit cards for tuition and fees since 1996, when the Kansas Legislature voted to stop financing credit card fees at state universities. But the new legislation requires that the University re-instate the use of credit cards for tuition and fee payment by July.
The University is one of four Big 12 Conference universities that doesn't accept credit cards for tuition and fee payments—along with Baylor, Colorado and Iowa State.
along with Hey, cooler and so much
Lindy Ealdin, associate provost, said the
University wasn't happy with the legislation
because it would have to pay a 2 percent
fee charged by credit card companies —
amounting to $400,000 per year.
Eakin said that if the University accepted credit cards, that cost would be passed down to students.
"We would need to have two prices—one for students who paid in cash and another for students who paid with a credit card," Eakin said.
Eakin said that Visa and Mastercard wouldn't agree with that option.
"It would be a great convenience — something that we really need to do — but we don't have the money," Eakin said.
Eakin said the University wouldn't start accepting credit cards if the costs remained so high.
R. Douglas Ackley, assistant controller for cashiering and student loans at Kansas State University, said K-State had accepted credit card payments for tuition and fees for 20 years.
"Discover was the only credit card company the state was able to convince," Eakin said.
Ramiro Moreno, Asunción, Paraguay, sophomore, said he would like to use his credit card to pay his tuition and fees.
"In other businesses, you can use credit cards," Moreno said. "This would make it easier for everyone."
"It provides convenience for students." Ackley said. "Students that pay by credit card appreciate the availability."

Students bring dinosaurs to life
Virtual reality play will be performed for grade schoolers
By Sarah Smarsh
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas Theatre for Young People will present a virtual reality production for local elementary school students next week
Dinosaurus, by Edward Mast and Lenore Bensinger, is a story of two oil company surveyors who encounter a moral dilemma after discovering dinosaurs in an underground cave.
Theatre for Young People will bring Dinosaurus to life by combining computerized animation with live actors, said director Patrick Carriere, Bemidil, Minn., graduate student.
"The exciting thing is how we can humanize virtual reality when live actors communicate on stage," he said.
Carrieire said that computerized, animated dinosaurs would be projected onto a large screen behind the actors. Crew members behind the scenes will use computer joysticks to control the dinosaurs' movements. Meanwhile, the actors will provide the voices of the dinosaurs and dramatize their interactions on three-dimensional scenery in front of the screen.
Carriere said there was also a good story with a moral message behind all the technology.
The surveyors who find the creatures in *Dinosaurus* must decide between protecting the dinosaurs and exploiting them for money and fame.
Dinosaurus, a virtual reality production from The University of Kansas Theatre for Young People, will be presented to the public at 7 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 10, at Crafton-Preyer Theatre in Murphy Hall.
VIRTUAL DINOSAURS
"It shows people should be aware of their effect on the environment, whether positive or negative." Carriers said.
"I think the children are going to love this," he said. "It's whimical."
Mark Reaney, professor of theater and film,
created the scenery for the production. Reaney
said the bottom line in children's entertainment
was to have fun.
Dinosaurus is scheduled to be performed for first, second and third graders from Lawrence and Douglas County schools at 1 p.m. Monday through Friday, Fri. 9 at Crafton-Preyer Theatre in Murphy Hall. A public performance will be held at 7 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 10.
Dinosaurus is the sixth virtual reality production from The University Theatre, which has been featured in journals, articles and documentaries on virtual reality productions, Reaney said.

Chancellor Hemenway to field KU Info calls
Any University of Kansas student who has ever wanted an answer straight from the top will have his or her chance from 1 to 2 p.m. this afternoon when Chancellor Robert Hemenway fields calls with the KU Info staff.
This will mark the third time Hemenway has helped the campus information service, which answered more than 161,000 phone calls last year, a 10,000-call increase from 1999.
Hemenway's hour of phone duty will not only give the chancellor an opportunity to personally talk to students, said Susan Elkins, KU Info program director, but also gave great visibility for the service KU Info provided.
"It's publicity for both ends really," she said.
The last time Hemenway answered calls for the service was two years ago, and even though no one question or conversation stands out in his memory, he said he was often asked questions to which he didn't know the answer.
That's when he directs the caller to the KU Info staff.
"They're usually pretty surprised when they hear the chancellor answer the phone," Hemenway said.

Juvenile gunman found unconscious in prison
ALTO, Ga. — A boy who shot and wounded six classmates at a suburban Atlanta high school two years ago was found unconscious on the floor of his prison cell yesterday.
T. J. Solomon, 17, was taken to a hospital, where he was reported in stable condition in intensive care.
Doctors were trying to determine whether his collapse at Arrendale State Prison was the result of a suicide attempt or whether he ate something that made him ill, said corrections department spokesman Mike Light.
Light said Solomon had been in good health before Tuesday.
The teen-ager pleaded guilty but mentally ill in November to the shootings at Heritage High School in Conyers. He was sentenced to 40 years.
The shootings took place May 20, 1999, one month after the bloodbath at Columbine High in Littleton, Coio, Solomon, then 15, opened fire with a sawwed-off rifle. No one was killed or critically wounded.
Solomon aimed below the waist, perhaps to avoid seriously hurting anyone.
Witnesses said he ran outside, dropped to his knees and pointed a .357-caliber Magnum revolver at his mouth. He then surrendered the gun to an assistant principal with a tearful: "Oh, my God, I'm so scared!"
Tip leads police to stash of weapons, explosives
CUPERTINO, Calif. — Police arrested a 19-year-old man who they said had dozens of pipe bombs, Molotov cocktails and other weapons and who planned to carry out a "Columbine-style attack" on a community college.
The man, whose name was not immediately released, was arrested late Monday.
Pollice said he lived in San Jose and was a current or former student at De Anza College. Police closed the school yesterday morning.
The man had 30 pipe bombs, 20 Molotov cocktails, several weapons and a stock of ammunition, said sheriff's spokesman Capt. Cary Colla
"Our investigation has revealed that this suspect intended to use these items to conduct a Columbine-style attack," San Jose police said in a statement.
Police in nearby San Jose said they originally learned of the arsenal Monday from a tip.
The statement gave no details on the tip, where the arsenal was found or how authorities came to believe the college in Cupertino was a target.
Anti-Semitic pastor walks out of own trial
GAINESVILLE, Mo. — Dismissing the case as a "Jewish flasco," the leader of an anti-Semitic church refused to attend his kidnapping trial yesterday as prosecutors accused him of hiding and brainwashing his own grandchildren.
The Rev, Gordon Winrod, 73, who chose to represent himself in court, refused to leave his cell and would not allow his public defender to participate.
He asked to be taken back to his cell Monday because he was angered by a judge's rejection of his motions.
"If you are not going to listen to my evidence, you can take me back to my cell and you can run this Jewish fiasco the way you want," said Winrod, also known for his hatred of nonwhites and the government.
Doctors removed organs from children illegally
Winrod, pastor of Our Savior's Church, faces up to 30 years in prison on charges he kidnapped six of his grandchildren from their fathers in North Dakota in the mid-1990s and hid them on his farm.
WORLD
LONDON — Doctors at a prominent children's hospital took hearts, brains, eyes and heads from thousands of dead children without the consent of their parents, a government report said yesterday, calling the findings "groteesque" and "appalling."
The hospital apologized and announced punitive steps against those involved, but families said that did little to diminish their horror and heartbreak about the unauthorized raiding of their children's organs for research and teaching.
Health Secretary Alan Milburn told lawmakers that Dutch pathologist Dick Van Velzen, who was responsible for post-mortem examinations at the Royal Liverpool Children's Hospital between 1988 and 1995, had "systematically ordered the unethical and illegal stripping of every organ from every child who had a post mortem."
"The appalling record keeping means that some parents will never know the truth about what happened to their child, and I regret that deeply," Milburn said. "And I am afraid that sadly there is little that can be done about it now."
The report found Van Velizen lied to parents, other doctors and hospital managers; that he stole medical records, falsified reports, and encouraged others to do the same.
The Associated Press
New Georgia flag approved
The Associated Press
ATLANTA — Georgia lawmakers agreed to shrink the Confederate emblem on the state flag yesterday, heeding a plea from the governor.
The rebel banner, added to the flag in 1956, occupies two-thirds of the current flag.
On the new flag, it will be reduced to one of five historic flags displayed along the bottom edge, below the state seal. On a standard 3-by-5 foot flag, the small flags are little bigger than a dollar bill.
The 34-22 vote in the Georgia Senate virtually consigns to history a flag some say symbolizes Southern valor but others contend represents slavery. The measure won House approval, 94-82, last week, and Georgia governor Roy Barnes promised to sign it quickly.
"I think the people of Georgia were ready to move on, they were ready for this matter
to be resolved, they did not want a long, drawn-out process like they just had in South Carolina," he said.
It wasn't immediately clear when the new banners would fly at state buildings.
"This flag issue has divided us," Senate Democratic leader Charles Walker said. "This vote today is about uniting us."
GOP Sen. Joey Brush said his vote against changing the flag was a vote to honor the men of the Confederacy.
Republican Senate leader Eric Johnson said the new flag was negotiated among Democrats in secret, sprung on an unsuspecting lawmakers just last week, and pushed through in "the most vicious, focused political effort this Legislature has ever seen."
"I cannot let those boys who left their homes and fought for Georgia be forgotten or let them down," he said. "I don't feel guilty."
ON THE RECORD
A KU student's residence hall parking pass was stolen from his car in the Hashinger Hall parking lot between 2 p.m. Sunday and 7:30 p.m. Monday, the KU Public Safety Office said. The parking pass was valued at $70 and was recovered Monday night.
A briefcase containing intelligence tests was stolen between noon and 1:20 p.m. Monday from 322 Fraser Hall, the KU Public Safety Office said. The items were valued at $1,000
A tow truck hit a parked Ko Funning Department truck at 1:15 p.m. Monday in the
Military Science Building parking lot, the KU Public Safety Office said. The driver of the tow truck said his foot slipped off the brake pedal and he swerded into the parking department truck to avoid hitting a pedestrian — a parking department employee and the driver of the truck. The passenger in the front seat of the parking department truck reported an aching neck at the scene, and was treated at Watkins Memorial Health Center. Damages to both trucks were estimated at $1,500 each.

Students enhance study abroad fair
Program veterans share information about time overseas
By Sarah Warren
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
When Daniel Hernandez decided he wanted to study abroad in Golifito, Costa Rica, his first stop was the Kansas Union.
The Emporia senior headed to a study abroad fair — like the one the Office of Study Abroad is sponsoring today from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the fourth floor of the Union — to talk to other students who had already participated in the program.
Hernandez said a trip to the a fair was necessary before he
plunked down his money and packed his bags for an entire semester in a foreign country.
"It's comforting to talk to students who have been on the specific program that you're interested in." Hernandez said.
Now a veteran of the Golffito program — he went in spring 2000 — and a student assistant at the Office of Study Abroad, Hernandez will be working at his third information fair today.
He said he couldn't stress how valuable attending a fair was for anyone contemplating going abroad.
"For students who think that study abroad would be a good time, it can help them find a program that they didn't think would interest them," Hernandez said.
STUDY ABROAD FAIR
■ When: From 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
today
Where: Fourth floor of the Kansas Union
David Wiley, outreach coordinator for the Office of Study Abroad, said volunteers at the fair — students who have studied abroad in one of the 55 countries with KU programs — were better than any pamphlet when it came to program information.
"They have the inside scoop," Wiley said. "And the students are actually the most useful because they can help another student decide if the program will work for them. The person is not to be an expert on GPA and prices, but they are there to explain their experiences."
Hernandez said there were basically two types of students who attended the fair — those with concrete dreams of where and when they wanted to study abroad, and those with desire to study abroad who did not have a clue about where to go.
"There's students who just want to get information," Hernandez said. "And then there's students who know exactly where they want to go and just want to talk to people who have gone."
However, Wiley said the fair was only supposed to be an initial step for those who wished to study abroad.
For applications and technical questions, students should head to the Office of Study Abroad, 108 Lippincott Hall.

Survey seeks source of Hutchinson fires
Governor sends scientists to locate disastrous leak
By Danny Phillips
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A team of scientists from the Kansas Geological Survey dropped everything yesterday at the request of Kansas Governor Bill Graves and drove to Hutchinson to locate the source of the gas fire that continues to burn downtown.
Lee Allison, Kansas Geological Survey director, said he received a letter from the governor Monday night asking the survey "to assess the scope, location and sources of natural gas trapped beneath the city of Hutchinson."
"That's pretty much a direct order," Allison said.
Gas leaked from the Yaggy gas storage facility seven miles northwest of Hutchinson two weeks ago and followed an underground path until it rose to the surface and exploded, leveling two downtown businesses.
Despite their best efforts, emergency workers have been unable to determine the pathway the gas is taking. Allison said.
The next day, a gas eruption destroyed a mobile home, killing an elderly couple living there.
That's where the survey crew comes in. Using its seismic reflection technique, Allison said the crew hoped to identify the narrow pathway allowing the underground gas leak to continue fueling the fire.
"Kind of like an ultrasound makes a picture of a baby in the womb, we'll try to create a picture of what the rocks look like underground," Allison said.
Once that pathway is located, emergency workers can drill relief wells.
Allison said the survey crew was well-suited for the job because it had studied
that area in the past and was able to identify gas pockets.
Another concern for Hutchinson is the more than 150 salt-solution caverns that officials have identified under the city, Allison said. These hollowed-out wells were abandoned years ago, and are what allowed the eruptions.
If the survey crew can't identify a specific pathway, Allison said he hoped it could locate any wells underneath the city that might still contain gas. That way, the city could determine whether evacuated residents could move back.
"You don't want to put people back in homes and then have another eruption," he said.
In order to comply with the governor's request, the survey crew had to postpone a prior commitment with the U.S. Army in Yuma, Ariz. The governor apologized for the inconvenience in his letter.
"However, the potential serious nature of events in Hutchinson leads me to conclude your agency's services are critically needed," Graves wrote.

Politically charged ads OK
Last week brought the 28th anniversary of Roe v. Wade. For the Kansan, it also brought a couple of columns on the abortion issue, an anti-abortion advertisement and at least a dozen letters to the editor about a woman's right to choose or a baby's right to live, depending on your point of view.
The most graphic — and reaction-inspiring — aspect of last week's newspapers was an advertisement titled "Life is full of surprises" from the Human Life Alliance.
I didn't like the ad, and I'm guessing it bothered other people who read it, regardless of their opinions on abortion.
The full-color insert included descriptions of how abortions are performed, possible negative impacts of the procedure, pictures of smiling babies and a disturbing article about people who sell the body parts of aborted fetuses.
the topic, especially if the literature is provided by a special interest group. But that doesn't mean the insert should have been kept out of the Kansan.
To tell the truth, I really didn't care to know any of the information included in the insert and nothing in the ad changed my opinion on the abortion issue. Furthermore, I have no desire to read anything more on
It was an advertisement, and newspapers survive by selling ads. To
pick and choose which ads will run in our newspaper would impede the free exchange of ideas — it would be a form of censorship that is not our responsibility to perform.

The Kansan doesn't accept libelous or discriminatory ads, said Matt Fisher, Kansan sales and marketing director. It won't run an ad with false information or an ad that promotes illegal activities.
But that's where the hard and fast rules end, which is something not all readers understand.
"Doesn't accepting an ad that is this blatant, biased and one-sided violate some principle of media ethics?" one reader wrote in a letter. Nope. Sorry.
For one thing, an ad is supposed to be blatant, biased and one-sided. That's the point. When Henry T's pays to advertise its 25-cent wings, it doesn't tout the atmosphere at Molly McGee's.
The Human Life Alliance wasn't selling wings. But it was selling a concept — an opinion, if you will — and neither it nor the Kansan were under any obligation to promote the opposite viewpoint.
Fisher said people often confused the advertising and editorial aspects of journalism.
When an anti-abortion column runs on the opinion page, the editors should make sure an abortion-rights column runs right with it, he said.
But when someone doesn't like an ad, it's their job to get the opposite viewpoint published. If that means running another ad, so be it.
One reader said as much in a letter that accused two women of trampling freedom of speech by removing the inserts from Kansan newsstands.
"If those two women didn't like what the pro-life inserts said, they should have written and had published their own inserts," she wrote.
She was right. Fisher was right.
And this time, the *Kansas* was right.

Perspective
Election forces African-Americans to act
As families across the nation gathered around their televisions to watch the swearing in of the 43rd president of the United States, I sat in my room bitter and remorseful.
How many other Americans were feeling the same resentment I felt because of the outcome of our 2000 elections? A few weeks ago, I was ready to concede and give the new president my support — but then he nominated conservative former Missouri Sen. John Aschcroft to be attorney general.
When it came time for the inauguration, I wanted to pout, complain or protest. Obviously, I was not the only one. I changed the channel from CNN just in time to catch the beginning of the Inauguration Protest Rally on C-SPAN. God bless them for being different.
While much of the world watched Dubya make promises to unite the world and promote world peace, I protested along with thousands of supporters in Tallahassee, Fla., from my futon in Lawrence.
Impassioned speakers took the
"Equal protection for the law."
"Fairness and Democracy"
and "More voted for Gore/No mandate for Bush."
PENN STATE UNIVERSITY
Protesters from the AFL CIO, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
Rainbow/PUSH Coalition, Black Leadership Forum and others were not present to condemn the new president. Instead, they let the world know the injustices of the Florida elections would fuel disfranchised voters to new levels of community and political action.
Erica Hawthorne columnist opiniononkansan.com
The Black Leadership Forum
chairman, the Rev. Joseph Lowery, told the audience and media, "If you think we went out in 2000, wait until 2002." He reminded black and Haitian voters that their record-number turnout was a victory for the people despite controversy.
Some would like to forget about Florida and move on, but voters who experienced violation of their basic voting rights in the November elections can't help comparing the incident to our history's ugliest times of prejudice and discrimination.
I was getting in the spirit myself and shouted at the television in support, "We're just getting started!"
Former Atlanta mayor Maynard Jackson began his speech with the demand, "I want to know why democracy means everybody but me." He went on to say that achieving freedom was only half the battle; the other half lies in remaining free through the ballot, the buck and the book.
The remainder of the rally continued with references to Martin
Luther King Jr.'s dream, poems such as "I Too Sing America" by Langston Hughes and passionate speeches from state and community leaders that resembled the likes of old-time Baptist sermons.
I believe Florida was a wake-up call for all African Americans who have become settled in middle-class comforts, believing what our ancestors and elders fought for is guaranteed. The elections were a painful reminder that we must continue to fight for justice
Protests against all injustices must continue on the Capitol steps, in the community and on college campuses.
Democratic Sen. Kendrick Meek of Florida said we must struggle through commitment. The new president promised us a new world, but the possibility of such change depends on our commitment to fight for equality and fairness.
So please excuse me and I get up from my futon and go going.

Editorial Employees need equal pay raises
Gov. Graves' budget proposal helps faculty but ignores support staff.
In his State of the State address Jan. 8, Gov. Bill Graves introduced a proposal for pay increases for state employees.
The budget pays for the elimination of the bottom three levels on the pay scale, meaning state employees such as university custodial workers and groundkeepers would start off with a higher wage, but it does not pay for wage increases for workers already in these positions. To maintain quality university employees in every position, the state cannot deny workers expected pay increases
Graves suggested a budget that would allot a well-deserved 6.2 percent pay increase for all state university faculty. It would also make 2002 the first year in 14 years that the majority of state employees — such as maintenance and custodial employees — would not get their anticipated annual pay scale advancement.
One of the biggest problems with not funding step wage increases in the 2002 budget is that it hurts employees' job satisfaction. And low job satisfaction, in turn, can cause poor on-the-job performance.
Andy Sanchez, executive assistant to the president of the Kansas Association of Public Employees, said that not funding the step increase is terrible for morale.
As a student, in order to gain an education, you need experienced, enthusiastic and adequately compensated teachers. However, the effects of a talented faculty would be muted if students were forced to sit in filthy classrooms or look for books in an unorganized, understaffed library.
Sanchez said that some aspects of the governor's plan, such as a 3 percent cost-of-living adjustment, sounded good on the surface, but the employee association is urging its members to take a closer look.
The adjustment is not a raise; it is a pay adjustment on par with inflation. Sanchez said that a 2.5 percent step increase, which is the average, would cost the state $14.9 million. This is less than 0.2 percent of the state's $2.2 billion dollar plan for the 2002 budget.
Minimal budget restructuring or an incremental tax increase would allow state employees to get the pay raise they deserve. Such compensation is necessary in order to keep employees satisfied and state institutions, such as the University, functioning at every level.

International students learn with conversation
By Michelle Ward
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Luis Parreira knows the value of conversation.
Parreira, an international student, improved his English skills in a peer conversation group in Kansas City before coming to the University of Kansas and now leads similar conversation groups through the Applied English Center for other international students.
"I know it helps a lot from personal experience," said Farreira, Sao Paulo, Brazil, sophomore. "I try to encourage all international students to get involved with this. This is the best place to learn English."
Parreira is among the two dozen KU students helping others learn the language through a part-time job at the center. The student leaders host voluntary sessions for approximately 100 international students on the fourth floor of the Kansan Union. The classes, which will begin next month, will run throughout the day for students. Attendance fluctuates between one to eight students at a time. Parreira said
Judy Bonifield, coordinator of the conversation groups for the center, said leaders enjoyed
working with the international students.
"Conversation leaders love this job." Bonifield said. "They enjoy interacting with people from a different culture. Students are learning to express themselves in a different language. It is a nice experience to share in, Many friendships develop here." Holly Worthen, McPherson junior and conversation leader, said the job was an opportunity she would volunteer to do. Worthen, majoring in English and international studies, said she liked the chance to meet people from different cultures and form relationships with them.
She said as a conversation leader she was there to educate others, but was a student as well.
"I learn what their culture is like, and they give me new insight on American culture," she said.
The exchange of ideas can lead to interesting situations for the group leaders. Worsten was meeting with three international students when they started asking about curse words. They wanted to know the definitions of some colorful expressions.
"The Union was really quiet with a bunch of people studying," Worthen said. "When they heard us, everybody looked up to
see what we were doing."
Being a conversation leader gives Marianne Hovgaard a chance to give back to other international students. The Vejle, Denmark, senior can relate to students' frustrations at not being able to accurately express themselves in the beginning. She said she saw the students in the program grow in ability and confidence throughout the semester, as their language skills improved.
"The best part is to see the progress they make," she said. "They come here with the goal of learning English, and they do it." — Edited by Joy Pilgreen

University upgrades backup fuel
By Erin Adamson
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas' power plant is switching to a more environmentallyfriendly backup fuel.
The new backup fuel burns cleaner, which cuts back on emissions and makes mainte nance easier. The plant will continue to run on natural gas, but is upgrading the backu fuel oil.
James Modig, design and construction management director, said the switch from No. 6 oil to No. 2 oil was practical.
"We voluntarily decided to go to No. 2 fuel for maintenance reasons." Modi said.
Riat said even though the higher quality No.2 fuel was more expensive in the short run, it would eventually save the University money because it would spend less on maintenance costs because the new fuel will not leave as much residue in the boilers.
As part of the improvements the University will undertake with $2,257,600
Although installation of the new fuel lines has begun, and new tanks are in place, no No.2 fuel is being pumped currently.
allocated by the Board of Regents for fiscal year 2002, a new fuel line and fuel tanks are being installed at the power plant to hold the new backup fuel.
Doug Raint, director of facilities operations, said the power plant ran on natural gas but maintained a store of fuel in case a natural gas line ever broke.
Riat said money from the improvement plan had gone to install new fuel storage tanks because the two types of fuel could not be mixed.
"We would only burn No.2, fuel as backup if there was a problem," Rial said.
roof tar and required heating before it could be used as fuel. The new No. 2 fuel, Modig said, had the consistency of diesel fuel and didn't have to be heated.
"On campus there are a large number of buildings that rely on steam to heat buildings," Modig said. "The heavy demand creates a problem for the natural gas company."
Modig said the University's policy had always been to maintain fuel reserves.
Modig said the No. 6 fuel the plant had previously used was about the consistency of
Peer mentoring helps students find their niches
By Andrew Davies writer@kansan.com Kanson staff writer
Edited by Brandy Straw
Some pre-professional clubs are offering students a chance to be part of a peer mentoring program.
Holly Nemecheck, Lawrence sophomore and president of the pre-pharmacy club, said the club paired members with students in the School of Pharmacy. Nemecheck said the mentors answered questions and helped the pre-pharmacy students prepare for the Pharmacy College Admission Test.
She said the program, which started last January, was open to any pre-pharmacy student and had been successful.
"I've talked to a lot of people who talk to their mentors." she said.
The pre-journalism club is planning to start a mentor program, said Jonathan Ng, Leawood sophomore and club president.
Ng said the program was tentatively scheduled to begin in about a month. He said one reason to start the program was to give freshmen ideas where to get involved in campus media outlets.
Ng said students could ask questions of their peer advisers they would not ask of faculty advisers.
Tiffany Ross, Wright sophomore and presnursing club president, said no mentoring program was offered because nursing students were only on campus for two years.
"I think they can be a lot more candid and open with these people because they're peers," he said.
Ng said the club planned to recruit mentors next month and to establish guidelines for mentor membership.
For more information on pre-professional clubs, students can contact the Student Organizations and Leadership Development Center in the Kansas Union at 864-4861.
Some clubs, however, do not see a need to have mentoring programs.
Chris Leiszler, Derby senior and pre-dental club president, said the club did not offer a mentoring program because it was a smaller group of younger people. He said the club tried to hold monthly meetings and officers of the club were available to answer any questions.

Students compete for community
By Cynthia Malakasis
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Like many KU students, Kalii Kuaper spends her Friday afternoons seeking release from the week's stress.
But now Kuaper, a Salina junior and Watkins Scholarship Hall resident, is spending her time doing community service that not only helps her relax and have fun, but also earns valuable Rock Chalk Revenue points for her hall.
Kuaper spends two hours every Friday afternoon participating in Kindergarten Readiness, a program that involves spending time with preschoolers and teaching them basic skills, such as reading.
"I enjoy interacting with children, especially since you don't see so many around campus,"
Kuaper said. The hours that she spends with children may also help Watkins Hall win a community service award at the Rock Chalk Revue Award Presentation.
Bronze, silver and gold awards will be given to the organizations with the greater number of community service hours during the Rock Chalk Revue Award Presentation on Saturday, March 10. The organizations participating, primarily Greek chapters and residence and scholarship halls, have been working toward that goal since the beginning of the academic year.
Ed Healy, Rock Chalk Revue community service coordinator and Beta Theta Pi fraternity member, said the main focus of Rock Chalk Revue was community service.
"It creates friendly competition and fuels participation in community service," said Healy, Keene, N.H., junior.
Most students are working on programs sponsored by the United Way of Douglas County, an organization that brings nonprofit agencies and volunteers together.
Michelle Heller, manager of Roger Hill, a volunteer center serving the United Way, said KU students had supported community service projects.
Chapters and halls are involved in projects such as the Boys and Girls Club, a campus blood drive and Habitat for Humanity.
Kuaper said interacting with *children had helped her realize things about herself.
"It has helped me put my life into perspective," Kuaper said.

Protein diets may be hazardous to health
By Livi Regenbaum
wrter@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Gabe Mervoch, Wichita junior, was surprised he lost 10 pounds on a high-protein diet. But he said he wasn't aware of the health risks associated with such diets.
Randall Rock, physician at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said a highprotein diet — also called the Atkins diet — was gaining popularity among young people.
--workouts," he said.
"These protein diets are a nationwide trend," he said. "We see a lot of students who are considering these diets."
Paul Sandburg, personal trainer at Sixth Street Fitness, 2500 W. Sixth St., said high-protein diets such as the Atkins diet consisted of exclusively high-protein foods — such as meat and chicken — and few carbohydrates.
"High-protein diets are not healthy," Sandburg said. "When someone is on a high-protein diet, they are using proteins instead of carbohydrates for energy. This causes problems because your body is not getting enough carbohydrates and, as a result, this can cause liver damage."
Mervoch quit the Atkins diet after a month.

Sandburg said this was a common complaint from people on protein diets.
"These fad diets can cause health problems to your kidneys and liver. They also cause low energy in your workouts," he said. "I often stress to my clients to follow a healthy diet which consists of an equal balance of carbohydrates and proteins."
Mervco said he got better results by following such a balanced diet.
"This diet helps me to maintain the weight I want and continue to have high energy," he said. "The Atkins diet caused my weight to fluctuate, while this diet helps me maintain my ideal
weight consistently."
However, Brent Anderson, manager at Sixth Street Fitness, said protein diets continued to be a big industry nationwide.
"Protein diets are popular," he said. "I see many body builders who often go on protein diets in order to lose weight and strengthen their muscles."
Kara Stodghill, Overland Park freshman, said she avoided protein diets because she knew they weren't safe.
"I think protein diets are great for short-term effects," she said. "But in the long run, they are detrimental to your health because they break down body tissues, including muscle."

Relief efforts battle 100-hour limit
The Associated Press
AHMEDABAD, India — Pakistan put aside its bitter rivalry with India yesterday and joined earthquake relief efforts, but heavy equipment and explosives brought in to clear debris signaled hope of finding survivors had all but vanished.
Experts say few people could survive more than 100 hours buried in rubble left by Friday's quake, and much of the attention shifted to getting tents, blankets and medical care to the living.
Officials have counted 7,148 bodies, but estimates of how high the death toll could rise varied widely. Defense Minister George Fernandes estimated 100,000 may have
died; Home Minister Haren Pandya said he believed the figure to be between 15,000 and 20,000.
Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee said it was impossible and improper to guess.
Aid from around the world was pouring into western India: a 747 loaded with water purification equipment from the United States, a $500,000 mobile hospital from Denmark and an air force plane filled with tents and blankets from Pakistan. With nighttime temperatures about 41 degrees in the quake zone,blankets were a high priority.
"I have come on a humanitarian mission," said Ilyas Khan, director of Pakistan's emergency relief agency.

"People are suffering."
Friday's magnitude-7.9 quake flattened the towns of Bhuj and Anjar in India's western Gujarat state, which borders Pakistan, leaving damage estimated at up to $5.5 billion. Despite aftershocks with magnitudes ranging up to 4.5 in the Bhuj area, there were no reports of new damage or casualties.
Rescue workers kept up the dark task of digging into the debris of ruined buildings, but they called the search for survivors increasingly futile. With yesterday afternoon passed the critical 100-hour mark since the quake struck.
"We talk about a limit of 100 hours, when after that the chances of finding someone alive drop dramatically," said Jochen Jakowski, the leader of a German rescue team in Anjar. "It is close to a world record if we find someone after 100 hours."
Much of the rescue work was being carried out by some of the 20,000 troops India sent to respond to the disaster.
Ashcroft's approval likely
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Republicans pushed John Ashcroft's attorney general nomination toward the Senate floor yesterday and his leading Democratic critic backed off a threatened filibuster, signaling confirmation was all but certain.
While the Judiciary Committee met to vote on the nomination, Sen. Edward M. Kennedy indicated he would not object to fixing a time for a final vote in the Senate. Kennedy, D-Mass., said he was forgoing a filibuster in part at the request of Ashcroft's successor in the Senate, Jean Carrnah, D-Mo.
The Senate's top Democrat, Minority Leader Tom Daschle of South Dakota, announced his opposition to Ashcroft in a harsh denunciation of the former senator's views on women's and workers'
rights, civil rights and separation of church and state.
Inside the committee room, Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Uttah, chairman of the panel, appealed to Democrats to give Ashcroft the "benefit of the doubt."
"All of us, both Democrats and Republicans, know the difference between legitimate policy debates and unwarranted personal attacks," he said.
The committee appeared divided along party lines, although Democrats said it was possible Ashcroft would gain some votes from their side on the panel.
As for the final vote in the 100-member Senate, Democratic aides said they hoped to post more than 35 votes in opposition to the former Missouri senator, whose nomination sparked the fiercest battle of all President Bush's Cabinet appointments.

However, what we choose to carry around today may not be so easily stereotyped and categorized in the future.
John Hoopes, associate professor of anthropology, said that in 1,000 years, were scholars to stumble onto these bags' contents, they might be more critical of our society.
"We might think the ones with hair brushes and other cosmetics are probably female, but not necessarily because everybody in the future could wear makeup," Hoopes said. "Men in other societies are more concerned with costume and appearance, so it's not necessarily easy to tell whether items are male or female."
Hoopes said that what anthropologists may be most critical of in 1,000 years is what these bags say about our wastefulness.
"In 1,000 years, they might comment on the wastefulness of paper, including the amount of paper that would be readily thrown away."

A water bottle without a filter and other petroleum-based products probably would puzzle future anthropologists because of the different state the environment would be in in 1,000 years.
Hoopes said that, judging by the amount of paper products, anthropologists would write about this as one of the last societies where not all information was digital.
Worried about how you may be perceived in 1,000 years? Maybe you should carry a candy bar around with you.
"That Snickers bar will still be edible in 1,000 years," Hoopes said.

Missouri loss won't faze Jayhawks
By Chris Wristen sports@kanson.com Kanson sportswriter
After 10 straight victories, it appeared the Kansas basketball team was poised to run the table in the Big 12 Conference.
But arch-rival Missouri smudged that pretty picture and suddenly the conference is blurry near the toon.
No. 3 Kansas is one game ahead of Missouri and defending Big 12 champion Iowa State. Close behind are Texas and Oklahoma State. In a race this close, the road won't get any easier for the Jayhawks (17-2, 6-1 Big 12). They play Texas (15-5, 4-2) on Saturday and then No. 15 Iowa State (17-8,
5-2) on Monday.
Oklahoma State then visits
Allen Fieldhouse
Saturday Feb. 10.
Kansas coach Roy Williams said his team would be fine, even after the hard loss to the Tigers.
PETER ROSS
"I think we're in good shape, but we've got to play better," he said. "We didn't show much poise and we've gotta play the full court."
Williams: The Jay-awks need poise.
We've got to execute better and have more enthusiasm on the defensive end."
Williams said his team lacked poise and cited numerous first half examples, including missed layups, bad passes and a missed dunk by sophomore forward Drew Gooden. He was equally frustrated with his team's free-throw struggles. The Jayhawks made just seven of 18 free throws while Missouri made 17 of 23.
Nick Collison shared his coach's frustrations, but said the team would not dwell on the loss.
"I don't think we'll get too down on it," Collison said. "We've proved to ourselves that we're a good team. We just need to execute the things we've been doing all year and do it better."
Kansas was way off the mark in the first half Monday, hitting just 35 percent of its shots in the first half. The Jayhawks finished the game at 42.9 percent shooting, their second-worst performance of the season.
Regardless of the poor shooting, Williams said Monday's loss didn't even compare to Kansas' 84-53 loss to Wake Forest on Dec. 7, 2000.
"I was very proud of what we did early in the second half," Williams said. "Last year if we got behind we never could come back, and these kids did show some toughness and poise at that time, but they were too keyed up early in the game."
The Jayhawks will try to rediscover their winning ways when the Longhorns come to town. Sophomore guard Kirk Hinrich said that would be the perfect opportunity to see what the team had learned from the Missouri loss.
"We won't let this affect us because we've got a big game on Saturday," Hinrich said.

WHAT'S UP NOW, BIG 12?
Back on the bubble
NCAA
XII
Parity could limit NCAA tourney berths
Bv Zac Hunter
Despite Monday night's 75-66 loss to Missouri, the Kansas Jayhawks are still favored to win the Big 12 Conference.
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
But after Kansas, the picture gets blurry. There are five teams jockeying for second place in the Big 12, all of which have two conference losses. Though still early in the conference season, this parity may cause heartaches once the NCAA starts passing out tournament bids in March.
Last season, the conference sent six teams to the NCAA tournament, with Iowa State leading the charge. The Cyclones lost in the Regional Finals to eventual national champion Michigan State. Texas, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma State and Oklahoma also made the tournament.
Now, nearly midway through the conference season, the Big 12 once again
could send half its teams to the Big Dance.
The Big 12 has never sent fewer than four teams to the tournament. The conference peaked last year with six teams.
While the competition in the league is high and can be good for the league, it could also limit the number of NCAA berths the conference will receive.
Underdogs have managed to knock off some of the teams in the upper half of the conference standings — something that could come back to haunt teams that don't hit the NCAA's safe harbor of 20 victories.
There are three teams sitting on 13 wins, but there is a minimum of 10 games left
Last season, Missouri advanced to the tournament with 18 victories, the fewest of any Big 12 school to make the tournament. But this season, there could be several teams in the conference that finish with 18 or 19 victories, which by no means guarantees a spot in the NCAA Tournament.
for each team to play.
One reason it's tough to win in the Big 12 is the number of distinct styles teams play. Kansas and Iowa State have very balanced scoring attacks, and a number of players are able to score 20 points on any given night.
Six different players have led Kansas in scoring this season, with no player scoring a game-high more than two games in a row.
"I think it is more difficult to guard a team if they have balanced scoring," Kansas coach Roy Williams said.
And teams around the league know stopping one player in a balanced lineup will not get the job done.
"Each team, the game preparation is a little bit different," Colorado coach Ricardo Patton said. "A team like Kansas can hurt you at every position. They are balanced and they know how to win."
Contrasting the Kansas style of basketball is a team such as Missouri, which has two dominant scorers surrounded by role players.
Kareem Rush and Clarence Gilbert are ranked No. 1 and No. 4 in Big 12 scoring, averaging 21.9 and 17.9 points.
Big 12 Conference standings from this year and last year at this time:
Jan. 30, 2001

With a lot of focus on upsets, it is now time for the teams at the top of the conference to start taking shots at each other. In the next two weeks, Kansas faces Iowa State twice, Texas and Oklahoma State, all of which are in the upper half of the conference.

'Hawks eager to take on 'Huskers
KANSAS 15 KANSAS 11 STATE
By Jessie Mever
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
The Jayhawks will look to do something tonight they haven't done since the beginning of December — win two games back-to-back.
Winning tonight would give Kansas its second victory in a row for the first time since Nov. 26-Dec. 1 — when the Jayhawks won three straight — and also extend Nebraska's losing streak to six.
Tonight's game is one the Jayhawks are taking personally. After dropping all three games to the Cornhuskers last season, including one in the quarterfinals of the Big 12 Tournament, the Jayhawks have some respect to regain and a score to settle.
The Kansas women's basketball team (8-10, 2-5 Big 12 Conference) will take on the Nebraska Cornhuskers (9-11, 1-6) at 7:30 p.m. in Allen Fieldhouse.
"They're a team that I feel doesn't have as much respect for Coach Washington as some other programs do," said senior guard Jennifer Jackson. "I think that's something that really motivates me and it should motivate my teammates."
The 'Hawks are riding a confidence wave after pulling out Saturday's 65-62 nailbiter against Kansas State — a game that showed there were still signs of life in a team that had been stuck in a three-
game losing rut.
"We've got to come out really fired up on Wednesday night to get a good emotional victory," Jackson said. "We've got them in Allen Fieldhouse and we're really looking forward to playing Nebraska."
For much of this season, the Jayhawks have struggled to find players who consistently added points to the board. Seniors Jaclyn Johnson and Brooke Reves are two of the Big 12's top 10 scorers, but have had little help from their supporting cast.

To be successful against Nebraska, Jackson said the team would need to show the same intensity it used to take the Wildcats out of the game Saturday.
But things have turned around some in recent games. Jackson has added five points to her average since the start of conference play, and K.C. Hilgenkamp and Selena Scott emerged to add 20 points against the Wildcats.
Sports Columnist
"I just think that looking for my shot more will help the team out a lot more, so that's what I need to do," Hilgenkamp said.
With the Cornhuskers at the bottom of the Big 12, Kansas coach Marian Washington said this was a game the Jayhawks should win — a game that will be an important motivator while Kansas prepares for its last nine conference
games, four of which are against teams ranked in the Associated Press Top 25.
But the Jayhawks, who teeter near the bottom of the Big 12, see each game as its own challenge, regardless of the opponent.
"At this point it's almost like, throw the rankings out," Jackson said. "I think we're capable of beating any team on any given night and it's just that we've got to believe that we can do it."

Hyped-up NBA rookies can't deliver
The Super Bowl is behind us and the border war at Mizzou is unfortunately in the books, but that doesn't mean the sports parties have to stop.
Dust off the TV and call your friends: You've got less than ten days to prepare for the next big sporting bash! You won't want to miss this one, it's the craziest basketball party of the year. It's the NBA's Schick Rookie Game, and it's crazy because you'd have to be nuts to watch it!
This year's exhibition of young NBA talent rivals the attraction of a Los Angeles Clippers' intra-squadr scrimmage. The 2000 draft class has been the biggest flop since Crystal Pepsi. Top pick Kenyon Martin is just about the only bright spot in an otherwise incredibly weak group of players.
At the start of the week, Martin was leading all drafted rookies in scoring, averaging just less than 11 points a game. The best rookie in the league right now could be journeyman center Marc Jackson, who spent three seasons in Europe before finally catching on with the Golden State Warriors. Jackson was drafted in 1997 and is now 26 years old. If the season ended today, he would run away with Rookie of the Year honors because he has no competition.
Why is there such a weak crop of new talent? It's simple: With each year that passes, the league is getting younger.
As more and more underclassmen declare for the NBA draft, the talent in the league becomes even more watered-down. In the first round of last year's draft, 19 of the 29 players selected were early-entry players. Many were hyped to be sensational talents by draft gurus, but none have panned out vet.
No matter what the sport, potential doesn't guarantee production, and a quick glance at some of this year's box scores speaks volumes for that statement. The average scoring output per game of the 29 first round draft picks is a whopping four points, and their lack of production can be traced to inexperience. Kenyon Martin was the only player of the top ten picks who played four years of college ball.
So how do local hares heroes view the pro game's declining quality of talent?
"I think the league is just getting younger and younger," Kansas forward Kenny Gregory said. "You shouldn't go until you're ready to produce. A lot of guys go because people tell them, 'well you can be top five right now,' even though they're not really ready. I think since guys aren't really ready and teams are drafting on potential, you're getting less and less production."
Gregory later added, "I'm so satisfied that I'm here for my senior year."
Kansas forward Drew Gooden respects former Jayhawk recruit DeShawn Stevenson's decision to go pro because he thought Stevenson had very little choice because of his low scores on college entrance exam. Stevenson currently averages two points a game playing for the Utah Jazz.
Gooden also talked about his own future and any chance of him going early.
"I don't think you should leave until you're ready to play in the NBA," he said. "You shouldn't just sit on the bench and get paid. Education is key and my family always stressed that. I plan on staying four years, unless it's definitely the right time to go."
When next year's draft rolls around, there's no doubt plenty of players will leave school early to chase the big bucks of the NBA. For their sake, and the sake of any NBA fans who still remain, let's hope they take all the consequences into account.
If only every young player with the NBA on his mind could sit down with former UCLA forward JaRon Rush and ask him how he likes chipping in two points a night for the L.A. Stars of the ABA. Maybe they could talk with Wichita East's Korleone Young, Missouri's Albert White, or Kansas State's Mark Young, all youngsters who entered the draft early but failed to succeed in the NBA.
And if all else fails, I suppose they could watch the Schick Rookie Game.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Jan. 31). You're putting down roots, and it's about time. A goal you've been after for ages can finally be yours. You've got the good ideas in February, but something's missing. Ask for the money you'll need in March and by May you should be ready. Have your plan all worked out and do it will be easy. Then celebrate in June by indulging your fantasies. A labor of love takes up most of July. Make time to get things done right in August. Others fund your dreams in September, if you approach them properly. Career stresses October, but you can get through it. Accept your friend's kudos in December.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 6.
Even if you can't get exactly what you want, you won't fly off the handle. You'll be patient, calm and thoughtful instead. That could actually lead to greater rewards. So go ahead and bite your tongue, and don't feel ashamed about it.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 6.
You have new determination, and you're probably right. Somebody else's fabulous idea could go up in smoke. The others don't know something you learned long ago from experience. Give them a break and tell them, if they're nice.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is a 6.
Travel is not a good idea right now, even though your friends are enticing you to try something new and exciting. It may not be quite as wonderful as it looks in the photographs. This time, the fantasy may be better than the reality.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is a 7. Working or shopping could cause a delay. You may be late for a get-together with friends. You can usually use your cellular phone to call if you get stuck in traffic. Technical difficulties could interfere, however.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 6.
You'd be wise to simply hold your position. Others will be pushing and shoving, trying to get you to change. Don't let them make you do something you wouldn't have done otherwise. Just take a stand and hold on to it.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) — Today is a 7.
You could finally get through to your sweetheart.
You haven't seen that gleam of comprehension in your loved one's eyes, but you haven't used an example to which the other person can relate. That makes all the difference.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct 22) — Today is a 7.
You idealistic, romantic bubble may burst. You may realize you don't have enough money to do what you'd like. The money is out there. You'll have to take time away from billing and coining in order to get it.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 6.
There's a need of controversy between you and your mate. You need to talk things out. Don't just dummy up because your feelings are hurt. If all else fails, make a list and just hand it over. Using "please," and "thank you."
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 7.
You're full of new ideas. Don't expect your co-workers to go along with your innovations immediately, however. The rut you find so confining could be the path of least resistance for them. Be patient and respectful.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is a 7.
You need to get all the test questions right before you can get that Aplus. Also do the extra credit. This works in your career and domestic relationships, too.
You have to be truly empathetic. Sure it takes more time, but nobody said this would be easy.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is a 6'. Your mind's on love today, not money. But it looks like you need to pay somebody who's taken over part of your job. When you've generated a little more time, you can spend it on romance. Don't lie; that will only make matters worse.
2
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20 — Today is a 7.
You're getting smarter. It's getting easier to learn,
too. So instead of getting bounced around like flot
sam in the tide, build yourself a little boat with a
keel and a rudder and a sail. Get yourself some
control over your situation.

John Hammerschmidt, head of the National Transportation Safety Board investigation team, on Monday said traffic controllers didn't get altitude data for the Beech King Air 200's last moments of flight, indicating the transponder may not have been working.
Aviation investigators said they had found no evidence that engine failure caused the plane to crash shortly after taking off from Jefferson County Airport on Saturday, killing 10 aboard.
Such a failure could point to problems with the plane's electrical system, NTSB investigator Robert Benzon said.
there were two Oklahoma State basketball players and six staffers on the plane when it crashed and burst into flames in a field 40 miles east of Denver. The pilot and copilot also were killed.
Investigators also have considered whether bad weather caused the crash — the plane took off in light snow and with a visibility of one mile, while an icing advisory warned of a light to moderate threat.
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
The plane wasn't de-iced before taking off, but there wouldn't have been much reason to do so because the plane went from a warm hangar straight to the runway and took off quickly. Benzon said.
Air traffic controllers told the NTSB they saw no sign of ice or anything out of the ordinary as the plane passed before them.
BOULDER, Colo. — The Colorado men's and women's basketball teams will fly commercial airlines for the rest of the season instead of smaller charter planes.
M
University officials announced the switch Monday, two days after a Beechcraft King Air 200 chartered by Oklahoma State University crashed east of Denver, killing two basketball players and eight other people associated with the team.
Colorado suspends team charter flights
"It's just a question of safety," women's coach Ceal Barry said of the change.
Many universities use charter flights because they can get athletes back to campus sooner than scheduled airlines, minimizing the number of classes they miss.
The change to commercial flights was to be effective yesterday, when Barry's team was to take a United Airlines flight to Austin, Texas, for a game today against Texas. The men's team was to take a commercial flight Friday to play the University of Nebraska in Lincoln for a game the next day.
Commercial flights are expected to cost $30,000 to $40,000 for each team for the rest of the season. It was unclear how that would affect the athletic department's travel budget.
Associate athletic director Jon Burianek said the university did not plan to scrap university travel completely. The university will evaluate next season's travel arrangements in March after the end of the basketball season.

Vince Carter (Toronto), Grant Hill (Detroit), Allen Iverson (Philadelphia), Tracy McGrady (Orlando) and Alonzo Mourning (Miami) previously were elected by fans to start for the East.
NEW YORK — Stephon Marbury, Anthony Mason, Antonio McDyess and Theo Rattifl were selected yesterday for their first NBA All-Star game.
Fourteen players were picked in a vote by coaches as reserves for the Feb. 11 game at Washington.
Mourning and Hill are out for the season and will be replaced by players selected today by NBA commissioner David Stern.
Shauqille O'Neal and Kobe Bryant of the Los Angeles Lakers, Tim Duncan of San Antonio, Jason Kidd of Phoenix and Chris Webber of Sacramento were elected to start for the West.

PORTLAND, Ore. — Trail Blazers forward Scottie Pippen will be sidelined indefinitely after arthroscopic surgery to remove a bone fragment in his right elbow.
Pippen out indefinitely after elbow surgery
Pippen underwent the operation Monday evening in Birmingham, Ala., at the clinic of Dr. James Andrews, a noted arthroscopic surgeon who has worked with several other pro teams.
The team said the operation was successful but refused to give other details. Pipen has missed 10 of the last 11 games with tendinitis in the elbow of his shooting arm. He was placed

McEnroe brothers flirt with Davis Cup doubles
NEW YORK — Patrick McEnroe, making his debut as Davis Cup captain, went with both experience and youth Tuesday when he announced his team to play against Switzerland in a first-round match.
McEnroe said he believes Martin and Gambill will play the first-day singles matches, but he will decide his doubles team later.
Both Andre Agassi, who successfully defended his Australian Open title on Sunday, and Pete Sampras, who has won a men's record 13 Grand Slam tournament titles, decided to skip at least the first round of Davis Cup this year.
Patrick McEnroe, who took over as captain after a one-year stint by his older brother John, repeatedly emphasized his team approach and said he hoped Agassi and Sampras would join the team later.
He also said he had talked to John, who publicly stated he was available to play doubles, and both agreed on the path Patrick is taking.
"It was a case of two brothers talking it over at length," Patrick said. "He was really understanding about all sides of it. He's real excited about the direction we're taking."

Intramural basketball begins
By Steve Laurenzo sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
The intramural basketball season began Monday night at Robinson Center with 16 men's games and one co-recreational game.
Pickup players cleared the court around 6:30 p.m., making way for an organized warm-up session for the first six teams.
As usual, many teams took time to think of a creative name. Some used their moniker to intimidate opponents — such as the Midwest Manglers — while comedy was the theme for other teams like Mulletia.
Mulletia is a combination of the words mullet and militia. Mullet refers to the popular 80's haircut, while a militia is a group of specialized military service persons.
Each of the first three games provided consistent action for the crowd, mostly composed of other teams, and play remained fast and fair throughout the two 20-minute halves.
Teams were well-staffed and maintained consistent and equitable substitution despite varying talent levels among team members.
The field was filled with both rookie and veteran intramural participants.
Jay Falley, Topeka junior, is entering his third consecutive spring basketball season and is representing the second team from the Sigma Nu fraternity house. Although his team has not fared particularly well in the last two years, he said the competition and exercise kept him coming back.
20
"Every now and then there is a little animosity, but people are really just out to have a good time." Falley said. "The referees do a fair job of keeping everyone relaxed."
Meanwhile, Ryan Greene, Vernon Hills, Ill., freshman, played in his first intramural game, representing the Wet Bandits squad. Green, a resident of Oliver Hall, said the game was fun and clean, but his team's victory against Mulletia was not its biggest game.
Delta Chi's Team 3 member Jared Coffin (left), Stamford, Conn., junior, tries to score Monday night during the first evening of intramural basketball play. The games will continue until mid-March. Photo by Melissa Carr/KANSAN
"I'm waiting to play the other guys on my floor, the Six Double N," he said.
For some, intramural basketball provides games and employment.
Timothy Bell, Liberal junior, plays on a co-recreational and a men's team, and began his duties as a referee on Monday. Several other students spent the evening scorekeeping.
Games take place every Sunday through Thursday in Robinson, and the season will extend to mid-March.

Ravens celebrate 'Super' victory
BALTIMORE — Even Art Modell got jiggy with Ray Lewis. The 75-year-old Baltimore Ravens' owner and the Super Bowl MVP linebacker delighted thousands of screaming fans yesterday as Modell imitated Lewis' trademark footwork at City Hall.
About 200,000 fans lined downtown streets despite a steady rain to celebrate the team's 34-7 victory Sunday against the New York Giants.
The all-volunteer Baltimore's Marching Ravens band and the team's three mascots, Edgar, Allan and Poe — named for the 19th-century writer of the macabre poem from which the team derived its name — led the players and coaches in a parade through the Inner Harbor near Camden Yards to the waiting throngs at Memorial Plaza in front of City Hall.
Baltimore mayor Martin O'Malley introduced each player in turn. Some threw personal items into the crowd, including a football, hats, jerseys and even umbrellas.
"I can't tell you how proud I am to bring you your Super Bowl trophy," team president David Modell told the crowd.
Art Modell accepted the keys to the city and thanked the crowd, which responded by chanting, "Thank you. Thank you. Thank you."
Loudspeakers blared Aretha Franklin's "Respect" as Lewis joined Modell on stage and the owner tried to imitate the movements Lewis has danced all season just before going onto the field to face opponents.
The Super Bowl victory and
NB
a double murder after last year's Super Bowl in Atlanta. Although the murder charges against him were dropped, he spent the week before the Super Bowl deflecting questions about the case.
The fans went ballistic as Lewis did his slide while holding the Super Bowl trophy and then led the crowd in the team's traditional pregame chant.
Baltimore coach Brian Billick followed, telling the crowd,
"This team taught me that the word team is really just an extension of the word family, and you all are a part of that family.
"Believe me when I tell you it's you people that brought Art Modell and this organization here, and you all are the reason that I am here."
The crowd also was entertained by the Baha Men, who performed their hit single, "Who Let the Dogs Out?," which the team adopted as its unofficial
season theme.
Earlier, the younger Modelle held the Vince Lombardi Trophy as he walked the parade route, his father rode behind in a limousine and players followed in a convoy of Humvees.
Fans perched in trees and on rooftops of surrounding office buildings along the 13-block parade route. Many danced to a nonstop hip-hop soundtrack and hammed for the players, who carried video cameras to personally record the event.
Wes Henson of Waldorf, who said he had never missed a home game in the team's five seasons in Baltimore, was decked head to toe in a purple "Captain Defense" costume, complete with a stuffed raven perched on his arm.
Wearing a purple tie, Stephan Moylan, a public defender and lifelong Baltimore resident, said the only people working on Tuesday were displaced New Yorkers.
"They're all eating crow today. They're all answering the phones because everybody else is here." Moylan said. "This is a tremendous day for Baltimore."
He said the Super Bowl victory did more to unite the city than any other single event in his lifetime.
"Baltimore has always been a segregated, divided city. Now, you see anybody on the street — black, white, green or red — all the color is purple," Moylan said, referring to the team's signature hue.

LOS ANGELES — Hollywood actors seem as divided as everyone else about the year's top movies.
SAG will present its seventh annual awards Sunday, March 11, in a ceremony airing on TNT.
The Screen Actors Guild nominations are the last major awards announcement before Oscar nominations Feb. 13. Unlike most years, no one film has emerged as an Oscar front-runner. A year ago, eventual Oscar champ American Beauty dominated Screen Actors Guild nominations with four nods.
The guild's nominations are chosen by 4,200 randomly selected members of the union. The union's full membership of 98,000 is eligible to vote.
Three films — the legal saga Erin Brockovich, the Marquis de Sade drama Quills and the drug-war thriller Traffic — received two nominations apiece.

Five different movies, including Golden Globe winners Gladiator and Almost Famous, took three nominations apiece yesterday for the Screen Actors Guild awards.
Nominations for best female actor were: Joan Allen, Juliette Binoche, Ellen Burstyn, Laura Linnev and Julia Roberts.

Browns announce hiring Davis
BEREA, Ohio — Nobody's hiding secrets, withholding information or denying rumors anymore. Butch
The Associated Press
Davis is the new head coach of the Cleveland Browns.
The Browns introduced Davis yesterday, a day after
he ended a month of speculation and gossip about his future at the University of Miami by resigning as coach of the Hurricanes.
Davis, a six-year NFL assistant who won two Super Bowl rings in Dallas, spent six seasons at Miami and returned the Hurricanes to national title contention. He'll have an even bigger job in Cleveland, where the Browns have been outclassed by the rest of the NFL for the last two years.
The surprising announcement the
Browns had hired Davis was welcome relief to Cleveland fans still reeling at the sight of seeing former Browns owner Art Modell winning a Super Bowl title with Baltimore.
Team president Carmen Policy said from the start of the Browns' coaching search "Butch Davis was the No.1 candidate of this organization."
But the Browns didn't think they had a chance at hiring Davis until last weekend.
In recent weeks, both Davis and the Brown had rejected rumors he would come to Cleveland, and Policy said only a series of unexpected developments led to the hiring.
Davis met with Policy and team owner Al Lerner in Florida on Jan. 13, but rejected a pitch from the Browns.
Policy said things changed late last week when he spoke with Davis' agent, Marvin Demoff, who said there might be a glimmer of interest
"That started a whirlwind of activity that lasted until about 2 a.m. Monday," Policy said, adding he missed the Super Bowl because of the negotiations.
The Browns had been looking for a coach since Jan. 11., when they fired Chris Palmer after a disturbing and injury-ravaged 3-13 season.
"He's a solid coach and a great pick," Brownns guard Jim Pyne said of Davis. "He's a high-energy guy who has a lot of enthusiasm and fire. He's a tough disciplinarian, and that can only help a young team. I'm really happy he's coming."
Money could be a big reason Davis changed his mind.
Davis received a five-year deal. An NFL source, speaking on the condition of anonymity, told the Associated Press Davis was seeking a total of about $13 million to $15 million. Davis' contract with Miami paid him $900,000 annually, and the school's new five-year offer was sold to be worth about $1.3 million a year.
New league hopes to piledrive NFL
The Associated Press
HARTFORD, Conn. — The World Wrestling Federation is out to body slam the NFL.
After stealing the all-important male demographic from Monday Night Football broadcasts, the WWF wants to capitalize on post-Super Bowl football cravings with Saturday's start of its own football league: the XFL.
"The NFL has forgotten about the fan," said Vince McAloon.
X X
head of the WWF, which coowns the league with NBC.
"The WWF moniker on the XFL is not a negative," McMahon said. "It is a plus."
"The NFL is more about corporate America," he said. "What we're doing is respecting the fan, giving them more than their money's worth and bringing them closer to the game."
The XFL is offering $25 seats at the 50-yard line, 75-foot Jumbotrons, concert-quality speaker systems, and fireworks and light shows galore.
With the WWF name attached, the league's legitimacy has been questioned.
Some NFL and TV standards will be all but ignored in the new league.
Team names will be purposely misspelled (the Los Angeles Xtreme, the Memphis Maniax) and occasionally politically incorrect (the New York/New Jersey Hitmen).
Even the league's acronym defies conventions: It doesn't stad for the Xtreme Football League, or anything else, the XFL said.
Cameras and microphones will catch all the action of the game in the huddles, on the sidelines, in the locker rooms, in the stands and among the cheerleaders.
NFL plays such as the fair catch and the point-after-touchdown kick won't be found in the XL, said Basil V. DeVito Jr..
XFL president.
"With the rule changes, we are bringing the game back to where it used to be," said Dick Butkus, XFL director of football competition and Chicago Bears Hall of Famer.
The NFL does not seem concerned.
"Well, we don't make much of it, because frankly we spent so much time focused on our own issues and challenges that we have really not been able to focus on the XFL," NFL commissioner Paul Tagliabue said.
One reason for the NFL's apparent lack of concern is the XFL's rosters, which include NFL castaways like Rashaan Shehee and football journeymen like Jerry Crafts.
Comfortable & Affordable Living
John H. Antil, a University of Delaware marketing professor who studies sports-related businesses, said NFL viewers wanted to see talented players.
"There just aren't enough for the XFL," he said.

Kansas, Nebraska look for conference win tonight
By Brandon Stinnett
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
Nebraska comes to Allen Fieldhouse in dire need of a road win tonight against Kansas. The Cornhuskers are 0-4 on the road in the Big 12 Conference and have lost five straight games.
Nebraska's Achilles' Heel is its offense. The Cornhuskers (9-11, 1-6) rank 11th in the league in scoring, averaging 66.6 points, and are eighth in field goal percentage at 43.5.
Nebraska's only conference victory this season came on Jan. 10 at home against Kansas State, the same team Kansas beat on Saturday, 65-62.
Nebraska coach Paul Sanderford said his team's primary problem was with turnovers. The Cornhuskers rank last in the Big
12 in turnover margin at -4.30 and last in assist-to-turnover ratio at .55.
"We've had a tough time this season," Sanderford said. "I'd say turnovers have been a big part of it."
Sanderford is the first to admit his team is struggling, but the Cornhuskers won't bring a sour attitude with them tonight.
"I feel like we can win any game that we go into," he said.
A win against the Jayhawks (6-10, 2-5) would be just what the Cornhuskers need heading into three-consecutive home games against ranked teams. Nebraska plays No. 8 Iowa State on Sunday before facing No. 10 Oklahoma and No. 23 Colorado next week.
But getting past the Jayhawks won't be easy. Kansas is riding high after snapping a three-game losing skid against K-State, and
Sanderford said Nebraska might have problems matching up with Kansas' experienced seniors Jennifer Jackson, Jaclyn Johnson and Brooke Reves.
"I have a lot of respect for KU," Sanderford said. "They have three seniors who are very good."
While Nebraska also starts three seniors, the Cornhuskers returned just one starter from last season and are composed of 12 freshmen and sophomores.
Their top newcomer, freshman guard K.C. Cowgill, has missed the past 12 games with a stress fracture in her left foot. In eight games this season, Cowgill is second on the team in scoring, averaging 10.1 points. Her injury has affected the team's offensive production.
"She's a freshman, but she's by far the best shooter on this basketball team," Sanderford said.
Cowgill's foot is nearly healed and she has been practicing in limited capacity this week, but she will not be available for tonight's game. Sanderford said he hoped to have Cowgill back in the lineup against Iowa State on Sunday.
Kansas coach Marian Washington said the Jayhawks needed to capitalize on their performance against the Wildcats. Kansas got production from players other than the three seniors against K-State. Junior guard Selena Scott scored 11 points on 4-of-6 shooting and junior guard KC Hilgenkamp added nine points and was 4-of-8 from the field.
"Every win that we can get is real important," Washington said. "If we can keep getting more players stepping up with more confidence, it will really help us."
