Minority enrollment increases
Recruitment, retention cited as keys to largest increase in KU history
By Katie Nelson
knelson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Minority enrollment rose 12. percent this fall from Fall 2001, the largest percentage increase in KU history.
There are 280 more African-American, Native-American, Hispanic and Asian students on the Lawrence campus this fall. The 20th-day figures, released by the Board of Regents yesterday, shows there are 2,606 self-identified minority students at KU. Last fall there were 2,326.
The percentage increase in minority enrollment tops KU's overall enrollment percentage increase of 9 percent on the Lawrence campus.
Charee Fits, an African-American junior from Kansas City, Kan., said she had noticed a drastic difference in the number of minorities on campus since she started at KU three years ago.
Fitts is the vice president of the KU branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, a civil rights group, and a member of the Black Student Union. As a result of increased diversity, attendance at meetings for both organizations has increased over the years, she said.
"More people are taking the initiative to make that happen, which is good," she said. "But don't get me wrong, there is still more work to be done."
The increase in minority students is the result of more recruiting, said Lisa Pinamonti, interim director of Admissions and Scholarships.
"There is more contact, more programming and more students coming out to visit," she said.
Increasingly, admissions counselors are tapping into high school minority scholarship programs in Wichita, Topeka and the Kansas City area. The counselors are also sending prospective students recruitment letters from student minority groups to help entice them to come to KU.
A low freshman-retention rate has long been viewed as a weakness in increasing minority enrollment, but that rate also jumped this fall. About 80 percent of those freshmen who enrolled last year came back this fall, whereas 75 percent of minority freshman came back for a second year in 2001.

Research quest loses player
Med Center administrator leaves hole that some say will take time to fill
By Lindsay Hanson
Ihanson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The departure of a top administrator at the University of Kansas Medical Center could hamper KU's pursuit of a top 25 ranking as a public research university, some Med Center faculty members say.
2002-03 KU research funds:
$224 million, including $140 million from grants and other external sources and $84 million from tuition money
1995-96 KU research funds (the year Chancellor Robert Heinemway took office)
$124 million, including $94 million from grants and $30 million from tuition money
University of Kansas Medical Center Research Institute president Michael Welch will become the president of the
Finch University of Health Sciences/The Chicago Medical School.
Welch, a nationally renowned brain researcher, announced his resignation Sept. 18. He came to the University in 1998.
Jeff Radel, board member for the Research Institute, said losing Welch would take time to overcome.
"I don't think it's fatal," said Radel, associate professor of occupational therapy. "The answer is that we have to get past it with someone who has equally substantial vision and I don't think that will take just a day or two."
Richard Hawkins, current president
of Finch/CMS, sat on the selection committee for the school's new presidential position. He said Welch carried a résumé full of experience that would be valuable to their school.
"There's going to be some restructuring and there's going to be some loss to KU Med, absolutely," he said.
Radel said one of Welch's most notable accomplishments was the launch of the Hoglund Brain Imaging Center, which is scheduled for completion next spring. The center will allow clinicians to map the brain's processes in motion.

The University of Kansas lost a good
Juanita Strait, who lived on the corner of 14th and Louisiana streets for almost 60 years, died of natural causes. Strait, who was 93, was known to have been a good neighbor and friend to countless students through the years.
Bob Hammer met Strait in 1944 when he came to the University. He rented a room from her and her husband, Reginald, who passed away in 1979, and stayed in their house for five years.
"I was walking up the 14th Street hill one day, and I'd always admired this house," Hammer said. "In the window there was a sign that said 'room for rent' and there was this vivacious young woman at the door. She showed me the room, and I loved it. It was the beginning of a 58-year friendship."
Strait continued her strong relationships with students despite deteriorating health during the last couple years. Hammer said he was grateful that students had an opportunity to give back to her.
"A multitude of people helped her in her declining years," he said. "It was

Nine KU students protest World Bank

Kansan staff writer
Nine KU students took part in a demonstration at the gathering of the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) this past weekend in Washington, D.C.
JUSTICE FOR ALL
JUSTICE MAKES AMERICA
The World Bank is now the biggest organization offering financial assistance to nations. So far this year, the World Bank has given almost $20 billion in aid to other countries, according to the Gannett News Service on Sept. 27.
They were among about 20,000 protesters who marched from the Washington Monument to the U.S. Treasury, protesting the World Bank and IMF's actions toward Third World countries.
But, the World Bank and IMF loan this money with strings attached, said Shaun Morrell, Salina graduate student.
Morrell helped organize KU students to travel to Washington D.C., and said protesters followed these organizations wherever they met.
"The World Bank and IMF use their financial agreements with other countries to enter into the country's economy and exploit the cheap labor and environment," he said.
The World Bank and IMF were created after World War II destroyed the global economy, leaving many cities in Europe and Asia in economic turmoil. These institutions were developed to prevent another Great Depression.
Morrell said one of the most important accomplishments of this weekend's protest was making a physical presence to demonstrate opposition to the institution.

KUJH-TV loses license to televise All News Channel
Starting yesterday, KUJH, the University's student television station, will no longer carry broadcasts from the All News Channel.
Gary Hawke, KUJH general manager, said he and administrators would announce a permanent replacement this week for ANC programming.
"There will be a lot more opportunities for more students to be involved," said James Gentry, dean of journalism.
In the meantime, Hawke said the station would run a community events calendar and rebroadcast programming such as last year's Late Night with Roy Williams and several student films in between the station's regular broadcasts.
Hawke said he and officials at Sunflower Broadband had looked into replacing ANC with MSNBC, Trio and C-SPAN3, but those stations' formats did not accommodate preemption by University broadcasts.
KUJH no longer has permission to broadcast programming from ANC, a 24-hour news station with which KU previously had a license for broadcast. The channel was sold in August to DIRECTV, a satellite television service.
All News Channel was broadcast for about 21 hours a day, filling air time between student-produced newscasts discussion forums and sports programs.

Cessna cuts 400 more jobs after voluntary buyouts fail
WICHITA — Cessna, the last holdout in the ailing Wichita airplane manufacturing industry, announced yesterday it was laying off 400 workers after it failed to get enough takers for voluntary buyouts.
The company said in June it hoped to reduce its work force by about 900 people through voluntary buyouts.
Cessna said the layoffs would come in the next 30 days, coming on top of another 400 job cuts achieved through their voluntary separation package.
The company did not say whether it planned more reductions to meet the 900-job goal set earlier this year.
"The announcement we made today is to help align our current production rate with our work force," said Cessna spokesman Jessica Myers.
This has been a record year for Cessna, with 300 deliveries of the Citation business jet. But the company expects that to fall to 250 deliveries in 2003, she said.
The announcement comes after Friday's announcement by Montrealbased Bombardier that it would cut 2,000 jobs, including 50 in Wichita. The company also said its Wichita plant would halt production of the Learjet 45 and Learjet 60 for four months beginning in December, affecting 500 workers.

Moussaoui trial moved to give defense more time
ALEXANDRIA, Va. — A federal judge postponed the trial of suspected Sept.
11 accomplice Zacarias Moussaoui yesterday from Jan. 6 to June 30.
U. S. District Judge Leonie Brinkema previously had moved the trial to January after deciding the original Sept. 30 day failed to give Moussaoui enough time to prepare his case.
Moussaoui is representing himself against charges that he conspired with the 19 suicide hijackers to commit terrorism.
Brinkema has been sensitive to Moussaoui's trial preparation time because the French citizen could face the death penalty if convicted.

Student seeks her own religion

Kansan staff writer
Every face in the crowd and name in the phonebook has a story behind it. Each week, Kansan writer Vonna Keomanyong tells the story of a randomlyselected KU student.
When it comes to her religion, Nicole Hirner is on a quest to find one.
The Peachtree City, Ga., freshman, said she did not want to make a decision about her religion until she came to college.
where you meet so many different people and I didn't want to make that snap decision I wanted to experience life first."
"College is a life-changing experience," Hirner said. "This is where you."
She said she believed in a higher power, but did not practice any religion. Hirner's mother is Jewish and her father is Catholic. She spent most of her life learning about Catholicism and Judaism. From ages one through seven, she went to a Catholic church. But she decided that she did not want to continue studying Catholicism so she enrolled in Hebrew classes at age nine.
After four years studying the Hebrew language, Hirner said, she started to question her faiths because she did not believe in
praying through someone.
"I came to the realization that as much as I love being part-Jewish, I didn't know if I really wanted to be a part of it," Hirner said.
Nicole's father, Bill Hirner, said Catholicism and Judaism did not cause friction between his family and his wife's family. He said the families celebrated together on Catholic and Jewish holidays including Christmas, Easter, Hanukkah and Passover.
Hirner said her multi-religious roots allowed her to have an open mind.She said she liked celebrating both holidays.
"I get two for one—I learned about both religions," she said.
In their family life, Hirner and her father have learned not to let religious beliefs interfere.
"Religion is not a factor in our relationship." Bill said. "It can be a factor in other cultures and other countries but when you have a strong family relationship like ours,you don't have to choose one religion over another."
Bill said he wanted his children to make their own decisions.
"We gave her the opportunity to learn and we gave her guidance," Bill said. "As long as she's happy, I'm fine with that."
Although Hirner is not sure whether she wants her pursue Catholicism and Judaism, she said the two religions made her more open to other ideas.
"People live their life by their religion. So as I find one, I'll want

University begins student space club
By Jenna Goepert jgoepfert@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
A new University of Kansas club is recruiting students from all disciplines to learn about space exploration.
The nation's only existing student chapter of the American Astronautical Society began meeting at the University this semester and is trying to spark interest in the space industry among students. There are about 30 members.
"This isn't meant for just engineering students," said AAS president Suzy Thompson of the students she wants to recruit. "We call them closet space cadets."
Thompson, Youngstown, Ohio, graduate student, said students were participating in a program to develop a satellite which will be sent into space.
Members discuss space-related issues of national importance and NASA trivia. Organizers want to bring in speakers for an aerospace colloquium and are planning trips to national conventions and movie viewings.
The group will meet at 6:30 p.m. Monday at 2027 Learned Hall to watch "The Dream is Alive," an I-MAX film in which
"We call them closet space cadets."
Suzy Thompson President, American Astronautical Society
the group's faculty adviser, Trevor Sorensen, appears.
The national organization began in 1954. Jim Kirkpatrick, national AAS executive director, said previous student groups failed because interest faded when faculty advisers left.
He said KU's club likely would not meet the same fate because it had strong direction from Sorensen, associate professor of aerospace engineering and vice president of education for AAS.
The national organization has about 1,500 members, several hundred of which are students, Kirkpatrick said.
Students who join the University's chapter before Oct. 31 will have their $35 national AAS membership fees waived. They will also receive subscriptions to Space Time magazine, the AAS journal and an autographed picture of an astronaut. For more information contact Suzy Thompson at astronut@ku.edu.

The registrar's office printed 35,000 timetables last fall, 32,000 timetables last spring and 6,000 timetables last summer.
Although the timetable has been available online for several years, the Spring 2003 version will include new enrollment

PERSPECTIVES
Online resource can keep you safe from sexual predators
There are 31 sexual predators on the Kansas Bureau of Investigation's Web site for Lawrence. One of them is my neighbor.
One of them is my neighbor
Visiting with some neighbors one night, I heard in conversation that a certain neighbor was listed as a sexual predator. He likes to expose himself in public.
Shocked. I checked the Web site, www.accesskansas.org/apps/kbi.search. There was my neighbor - a man about my father's age, a man I liked, respected and trusted - name, address, charges and photo.
I ask myself whether I would have moved into this apartment complex if I had checked the Web site before I signed the lease. I think I would have chosen an apartment in the other building.
I park as close to my apartment as I possibly can,not out of laziness,but out of concern for my safety.
I am now more aware of the people around me when I go outside and of the habits that I practice that could make me unsafe.
I close my blinds a little earlier now, before it gets dark.
I used to routinely leave my door unlocked while I took my dog down a flight of stairs to go to the bathroom, or when I ran across the street to check my mail. I don't anymore.

I should have done these things anyway, but the concept of safety has hit closer to home lately.
While my neighbor is listed only for "lewd and lascivious behavior," other offenders are listed for more serious offenses: sexual exploitation of a child, indecent liberties with a child, sexual battery and rape.
Protect yourself. Check out the KBI's Web site.
Search for Lawrence or any other city in Kansas, or by zip code, county or name of the offender. Find your home-town.
town. If you're not from Kansas, check out your home state, many states have listings. Links to state sites are at http://www.sexualoffenders.com/sexoffenders.htm.
If your home state doesn't have a list, petition your state legislature to form a public list.
The Supreme Court has upheld the
constitutionality of these kinds of lists because they protect the public from known sex offenders. It is your right to know whether a sex offender lives near you.
Check the Web site before you sign a lease on a new apartment and figure out whether you really want to live there or you want to request a different building.
No matter who lives near you, lock your doors at all times. Close your blinds a little before dark. Be cautious of your neighbors and practice common sense.
Be aware of your surroundings and of unfamiliar people in your neighborhood. It may seem silly to tell adults these things, but it's too easy to be careless. I know.
Protect the people you love
Protect the people you love Tell your family members and friends about the Web sites for their cities and about any sexual offenders in their neighborhoods.

Beware, in these times of modern media, sound bites back
Sound bites are truly American. Only in America could debates take, as their starting point, quotes that are all too often out of context, and downright misleading.
One fan of the sound bite that everyone should know is The Fox News Channel.
Fox swaggers through the cable news channel lineup draped in the American flag capitalizing on the sound bite's massive potential.
sive potential.
As a number of political columnists have recently reported, Brit Hume played on Sept. 24 a clip of Al Gore recently indicating that during the Gulf War he "felt betrayed by the first Bush administration's hasty departure from the battlefield."
This was contrasted against comments he made as a Senator in 1991 when "[t]here was throughout the war a clear consensus that the United States should not include the conquest of Iraq among its objectives."
GUEST COMMENTARY
Interestingly enough, two days later on Hannity and Colmes, another Fox News program, the entire Gore quote was given. The revised version read that Gore "felt betrayed by the first Bush administration's hasty departure from the battlefield, even as Saddam began to renew his persecution of the Kurds in the north and the Shi'ites in the south, groups that we had, after all, encouraged to rise up against Saddam." The more extensive quotation reveals Gore's comments as a criticism of
Greg Holmquist
opinion@hansan.com
GOLD CITY
the senior Bush's decision to abandon Kurds and Shi'ites, not a criticism of his decision to leave Saddam in power.
Fox's problems seems more like the mistakes of an understaffed and desperate high school newspaper than those of a 24-hour news channel, but then again, who is to blame when sound bites rule the day?
The University Daily Kansan is no exception. It can range from resentment over labeling Sept. 11 'demonstrators' as 'protestors,' to grumblings about misquotations. Either way no one is immune.
The phenomenon unfortunately permeates, to varying degrees, every aspect of the media in America.
A.
Sound bites do make for good entertainment.
Despite their entertainment value, complacency is the wrong response.
For comedy, turn to George W. Bush or former Vice President Dan Quayle. And who can forget clips of former President Clinton asking for a definition of the word "is," or denying having had a sexual relationship with Monica Lewinsky.
It is inevitable that in the absence of the complete story someone will fill in the details.
Bias is aggravated by myopia and sound bites have a tendency to focus on the immediate details more than the big picture. They suffer from a predisposition to hyperbole and walk through political minefields with blinders on all sides.
It makes for fascinating politics but at the expense of actual progress.
So next time you hear a sound bite, get your entertainment out of it, but remember to take those short blurbs of speech with a grain of salt.

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN = 5A
Senate puts spin on diversity week
By Caleb Noothwehr
cnothwehr@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
With the help of snow cones and Twister game boards, Student Senate is drawing attention to the benefits of diversity and the Multicultural Resource Center.
Games like Diversity Jeopardy will take place at Wescoe Beach from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. today through Thursday to help students learn facts and figures about KU's ethnic groups and the current Multicultural Resource Center.
Jonathan Ng, student body president, said a byproduct of the awareness week activities would be educating on the need for a new Multicultural Resource Center.
"KU has the unique chance to set itself apart from other universities by helping its students prepare for an increasingly diverse workplace," Ng said.
Claire Zeigler, Senate communications coordinator and Manhattan sophomore, said her vision for a new center included a more centralized campus location. The building is located south of the Military Science building.
"It's so small and because its location isn't optimal, it can't fulfill its potential," she said.
Approximately 250 stopped by
the Senate's table Monday in the first year for such an event, Ziegler said.
"If nothing else, students will think about what diversity means," she said.
Other campus organizations involved throughout the week include the Black Student Union, the Asian American Student Union, and Queers and Allies.
Stacy Sippel, Wichita sophomore, approached the table because of the promise of a free snow cone, but said she appreciated Senate's effort of educating students about diversity.
"It's important to be open-minded and not be confined to Kansas." Sippel said.
Although Scott Araipoli, Springfield, Mo., junior, didn't stop to participate in any diversity awareness games, he said he too was impressed by the activities.
"Diversity is one of the most important things a campus can offer." he said.
The MRC awareness weeks comes as a follow-through on a campaign promise from lastyear's KUnited campaign which implemented a program called One KU Community, dedicated to informing students about what activities they can participate in.

Motor coach owners roll into Hutchinson
The Associated Press
HUTCHINSON — Two bathrooms. An interactive GPS navigation system. Self-contained vacuums that don't need a new bag for four months.
With modern conveniences and high-tech gadgets, the old motor home has been transformed into a "land yacht."
Up to 6,000 people devoted to the lifestyle are expected to visit Hutchinson this week for the Family Motor Coach Association's 68th Premier International Extravaganza at the Kansas State Fairgrounds.
The FMCA event is one of the key selling events for motor-home manufacturers, and about 1,000 units will be for sale during the event, which ends Thursday.
The event will feature more than 450 vendors selling everything imaginable to make motor-home travel easier.
That includes motor coaches with two bathrooms. Not much tops that for motor home owners, according to Walter Bennett of Wichita.
Why two bathrooms? Simple, said Bennett's wife, Carolyn.
"The issue," she said firmly, "is getting two people ready at the same time."
In fact, the makers of Bennett's Holiday Rambler coach used the decade-old "rolling room" technology to clear the way for a second, elaborate home-like bathroom in the far back of the coach.
Satellite television isn't new on motor coaches. But a dish that rises out of the roof of the coach and hones in on the satellite is a high-demand item.
"Literally, the touch of one button will cause the antenna to go up, locate the satellite and lock onto it," said Bill Adams of RV Satellite Sales and Service, a traveling company based in Missouri.
What is new about satellite RV communication is the Internet — at least for those who have a fat wallet.
A DirectWay satellite dish 39-by-24 inches instead of the standard 18-inch round dish will bring full two-way broadband service into the motor home while stationary. The satellite must have a clear view of the southern sky to work.
But at $99.95 a month Adams said, "it's pricey."

"He was able to speak to them in a way that they understood and he could communicate a passion for research and excellence," Ahluwalia said. "The good news is that he's not the only one with that gift."
"Just getting the Hoglund Center off the ground is a huge deal, and it won't be something that is matched in this part of the region at all," he said. "The question is; what does it mean when the main instigator is going somewhere else?"
Budget cuts may be responsible for KU losing important assets in its goal for higher prestige and ranking.
Ahluwalia said Welch's four year stay was standard among talented university administrators across the country.
"It's certainly true that other universities are making offers to KU faculty that are sometimes one and a half to two times higher than what they receive here." Hemenway said.

Chancellor Robert Hemenway said this year's budget cuts invited other universities to entice faculty members with offers of higher salaries. University faculty will not receive raises this year, he said.
Hemenway agreed, comparing the more than 1,700 faculty members at KU to a football team whose members rotated in and out even when the team was winning. Hemenway said Welch was the "exceptional running back."
Welch said a tight budget would not halt the $125 million for life sciences programs that he had helped solicit from the Kansas legislature for KU
But many at the University look to the future.
He expects officials to begin looking soon to find a replacement for Welch by July.
The life sciences program obtained a top-35 ranking this year, up from last year's rank of 61. The program jumped further than any other U.S. university in life sciences.
"KU can definitely move on, as it has in the past," Ahluwalia said.
"You work on this as a team — Mike Welch was a very important part of that—but the team is still in place," he said.
Jim Roberts, vice provost for research at the Lawrence campus, said the University's federal funding for life sciences had grown faster than any other university. Research departments at the University have $224 million in research funds this year, an increase of $100 million in the last five years.
Jasitj Ahluwalia, chair and professor of preventative medicine and public health who helped hire Welch at KU, said Welch had been a charismatic figure who influenced the Kansas legislature, convincing its members to allocate more money to the University than they had in the past.
Roberts said the increase in money could be attributed to people like Welch lobbying for money. Hemenway also asked faculty to pursue larger grants from the government.
Welch agreed that KU was on an upward leadership trend.

"We wanted to bring the issue to the public eye and bring this institution to the forefront of public attention," he said.
In addition to sending a message to the World Bank and IMF, Morrell also hoped the demonstration would stimulate more people to research the policies of these two institutions. He said he thought the protesters had accomplished this goal.
Other students attending the protest had different goals in mind. Aaron Jacobs, Leawood junior, said he wanted to affect

But, he said the protesters' numbers were down this year.

Tyler Longpine, Hays junior, said he was not sure whether the protesters' message reached the public's ears.
Despite this fact, Longpine is confident the politicians within the World Bank and IMF received the demonstrators' message.

ground, said David Brown, attorney for the residents. Mediators do not make decisions.
"It is my hope that we can agree." Brown said. "We have been working very hard to get this case settled."
the judge's order for mediation is a step in the right direction, said Lynn Bretz, director of University Relations.
"We're just really pleased the case is moving." Bretz said. "The University has contended all along that we've managed the trust in accordance with Mrs. Wattins's will."
Donor Elizabeth Miller Watkins, who died in 1939, established a trust fund for hall improvements in her will. A group of Watkins residents requested access to the trust's accounting records in February 2000.
Murphy ruled in September 2000 that the women of the halls were beneficiaries of the trust. Before that ruling, the University was considered the only beneficiary.

The halls' residents are suing to gain access to the trust's
What it means: The parties in the nearly 3-year-old lawsuit must seek mediation in order for the case to proceed. Murphy would not rule on any of the pending motions until mediation occurs.
Suit goes to mediation
What happened: Judge Jack Murphy ordered that residents of Miller and Watkins scholarship halls, the University and the Bank of America must seek official mediation in the lawsuit involving the Elizabeth Miller Watkins Trust.
What's next? Murphy set an Oct. 29 deadline for mediation. The parties will return to court Nov. 1. At that point, the case will have been settled by mediation, or it will move to trial.
accounting records.
He also scheduled a hearing Nov. 1 to check the progress of the mediation. At that point, the case will be settled by mediation or it will go to trial.
Brown asked the judge to appoint an auditor to examine the records. Yesterday, Murphy set an Oct. 15 deadline for the parties to agree on an auditor or to submit a list of names from which he would pick an auditor.
mittee. Bernard, Overland Park senior, was among the original group of residents who filed the motion that started the lawsuit.
After nearly three years, the lawsuit still remains an important issue to the residents of both Miller and Watkins halls, said Rachel Bernard, president of the halls' Student Preservation Com-
"I was a freshman when I signed the first petition," Bernard said. "I really hope mediation is what gets us through."
New residents at Miller and Watkins halls supported the lawsuit as strongly as the residents did three years ago, Bernard said.
"It's not really something you have to sell," Bernard said. "It's an amazing place to live, and people are grateful to live here. People want to preserve and protect it."
Since February 2000, the halls' residents have racked up about $65,000 in legal bills, Brown said.
The halls' alumni donated money to pay for most of the bills throughout the lawsuit, Bernard said.
Since the lawsuit began, both halls had seen major renovations, including the addition of air conditioning.
"We believe that many of the renovations that have occurred are the direct result of the suit the women filed," Brown said.
The installation of central air was part of a long-term timetable of planned renovations for the halls, Bretz said.

Injury sidelines Rams' Warner
The Associated Press
ST.LOUIS - It'll be December before the St. Louis Rams, hurting with an 0-4 start, get their MVP quarterback back.
Kurt Warner will be sidelined 8-to-10 weeks with the pinkie on his throwing hand broken in two places, and will have surgery today.
"He's upset, he's very upset, but he understands," coach Mike Martz said. "There's nothing you can do about it."

Dr. Matt Matava, one of the Rams' orthopedic surgeons, said if everything goes well Warner will begin moving the finger in 3 1-2 to four weeks. The pins will come out after five weeks and X-rays will monitor the extent of the healing process during rehabilita-
The quarterback was injured in the first quarter of Sunday's 13-10 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. The Rams estimated Sunday he would be sidelined at least a month, but because this is a compound fracture the recovery period will be a lot longer.

Two years ago, Warner had surgery on the same broken finger on his right hand and missed five games. That time, two pins helped the fracture heal. This time, three pins will be inserted in

"The medical staff is going to have the final say because first and foremost his health is what's of our utmost concern," Matura said. "There is a risk that if
you go back too soon, even though you're feeling good, that you can re-crack the bone."
Matava said the earlier break was not a factor in Sunday's injury. In fact, he said the digit should have been stronger than before as a result of the procedure done in 2000 because the body typically adds healing bone.
"It is rare that you'd break the same bone on the same hand," Mataua said. "Unfortunately the
position he plays, his fingers are somewhat spread every time he throws the ball and then if he lands awkwardly, that little finger kind of sticks out to the side."
Warner was hit on a safety blitz by Roy Williams on a screen pass that was intercepted by the Cowboys' Greg Ellis with 8:52 to go in the first quarter, rolling over the hand on the artificial turf. That was Warner's eighth interception of the season, to go with a single touchdown pass.
Warner is 14th in the NFC and 25th in the NFL in passer rating at 66.4, even though he's completed 70.1 percent of his passes best in the conference.
Backup quarterback Jamie Martin's wife, Kelly, gave birth to the couple's second child Monday morning. Martz said Martin was supposed to come in and review game tape later in the dav.
Martin, who was 24-for-37 for 262 yards with a touchdown and an interception Sunday, will be making his second career start in nine NFL seasons Sunday at San Francisco.

Beckseeking
By John Domoney
jdomoney@kansan.com
Kansan scrippswriter
Short, short and wide left. That's not what any place kicker wants to hear as a description of his field goal attempts.
That's exactly how Saturday night went for Kansas sophomore kicker Johnny Beck. Beck failed to make any of his field goal attempts as he missed from 53, 52 and 32 yards in the Jayhawks' 43-33 win over Tulsa.
Although the 53-yard miss was into the wind on Kansas' first possession, the 52- and 52-yard misses came in the fourth quarter, which allowed Tulsa to creep back to within 10 points after Kansas had built a 43-19 lead in the third quarter.
A look of dejection crossed Beck's face as he walked to the team bus.
Beck said he was happy that his team had won, but he could not help but be down on himself and his kicking so far in the season.
the season. "I'm not playing to my potential right now, and I'm not happy with my performance," Beck said.
All of Beck's struggles have come after a freshman campaign in which he hit 14-of-20 field goal attempts and converted on 16-of-17 extra-point tries.
Beck's 59-yard field goal against Colorado last year was the second-longest in school history, and The Sporting News voted Beck to the Big 12 All-Freshman team and honorable mention all-conference.
Coming into this year, Beck was named a preseason candidate for the Groza Award, given to the nation's top kicker.
Postseason accolades look grim for Beck, who has been inconsistent through the first five games. He converted on only 5 of 9 attempts after making his first seven field goal attempts last year.
Even with the rocky beginning for Beck, Kansas coach Mark Mangino said he had confidence in his kicker.
he had confidence in his luck.
"I'm not worried about Johnny," Mangino said. "I've learned over the years in kicking that's how it goes — some of the best kickers I've been around, things like that happen."
Mangino also said that Beck's three misses against Tulsa cannot be completely blamed on Beck.
Two of the snaps from senior longsnapper Greg Nicks were off-target as junior holder Curtis Ansel was rushed to turn the laces and place the football for Beck to kick.
Still, Beck will not place any of the blame for his kicking woes on anyone but himself, and he's worried that his play is beginning to establish a pattern.
"I always want to say I can't be a streaky kicker, and that's what I think I'm turning into," Beck said. "Hopefully, I will get back on track soon and this all just goes away."
Mangino said he knows that special teams will play a big role in Kansas' success, and he was looking for Beck to break out of his sophomore slump.

Johnny Beck, sophomore place kicker, kicks a field goal in last year's game against the Colorado Buffaloes. Although he was a Big 12 All-Freshman team member last year, Beck has been struggling lately, missing all three field goals he attempted this past Saturday.
"He'll break out here," Mangino said. "He'll bomb a few in the next coufie weeks and everything will be just Edited by Melissa Shuman fine."

After two matches as the hunter, the Kansas volleyball squad is now the hunted.
After breaking two losing streaks to Texas Tech and Colorado, Kansas (11-1, 3-1 Big 12) will try to stave off the University of Missouri at Kansas City Kangaroos (8-9) tonight at 7 at the Horejsi Family Athletics Center. Kansas is 21-1 all-time against the Kangaroos.
Kansas is coming off a 3-0 sweep of Texas Tech in Lawrence last Saturday, snapping a four-match losing streak to the Red Raiders. Freshman middle blocker Josiane Lima led the match with 18 kills.
DANID KOBZANTSEV/KANSAN Ashley Michaels, sophomore middle blocker, and Andi Rozum, freshman setter, leap into the air for a block. Rozum earned her second double-double with 10 digs and 47 assists.
"Any team would rather be in our position as the hunted," said freshman setter Andi Rozum, who earned her second double-double of the year with 10 digs and 47 assists.
The Kangaroos were swept by Oral Roberts in three games in their last match on Saturday. They are on a 10-game losing streak against Kansas. In last year's meeting, the Jayhawks won on

Team water skis into nationals

Kansan sports correspondent
Members of the KU water skiing team pose for a picture. The team qualified for nationals this past weekend for the first time in its history, defeating conference rival Wisconsin in the Regional Collegiate Championships in Decatur, Ill.
The Kansas water skiing team made the cut this past weekend that it has never made before, it qualified for the National Collegiate Championships.
National Collegiate Championships By finishing fourth in the Midwest Regional Collegiate Championships in Decatur, Ill., the team qualified to compete in the National Championships over fall break, Oct. 17 to 19, in Austin, Tex.
The men's team finished second overall and the women's team finished fifth. Combined the team finished fourth behind traditional powerhouse's first-place Purdue, second-place Michigan and third-place Kansas State.
The top five teams from each region advance to nationals, where 20 teams compete in three events for the title of National Champion.
Also, the team defeated conference rival Wisconsin, which finished sixth and did not qualify for the tournament.
"It was really rewarding to beat Wisconsin," women's captain and senior Jegen Mermott said. "They beat us at the conference championships, so we
were real excited and pleased to beat them."
Besides McDermott's 16th-place tie in the jump event, the women's team also got contributions from sisters Amy and Angie Hamilton. Amy, a sophomore and Angie, a freshman, finished high in the slalom and trick events.
Additionally, sophomore Megan Lacroix finished in 14th place in the jump event. McDermott said she was extremely pleased with Lacroix's performance.
"Megan and the rest of the underclassmen really stepped up during regionals." McDermott said. "These girls are extremely dedicated and are out on the lake practicing everyday for about six hours."
On the men's side, the team got contributions from team president and junior Brian Legg, men's captain and senior Dillon Strohm, who placed 10th in the slalom event, and senior Jermey

Cyclones' win over 'Huskers shakes Big 12 totem pole
Here's hoping the Iowa State Cyclones at least made a respectable gesture and saluted the Nebraska Cornhuskers with a little wave as they shot past them on the Big 12 totem pole. After all, a shake-up of massive proportions occurred Saturday in Ames, Iowa. Iowa State signaled a change of football power in the Big 12 in 60 painstaking and almost unthinkable minutes in a dominating 36-14 victory.
In 60 minutes, the Cyclones dusted away the memory of Nebraska's supremacy—a tradition of two generations—and disregarded the Cornhuskers in the same manner they accepted beatings in the past.
Those 60 minutes were the result of a revival. When Dan McCarney succeeded Jim Walden as coach of a fledgling, rock-bottom football program in 1995, the odds were in favor of McCarney matching former Kansas coach Terry Allen in
terms of rebuilding success.
Most importantly, he earned the trust of the Iowa State athletics department. Five years, 13 wins and limited improvement in fan support usually results in a pink slip. At Kansas, Allen was gone just before the end of his fifth season—and he picked up 20 wins during his tenure.
His persistence allowed him to stay upbeat despite the fact that Iowa State won a mere 13 games in McCarney's first five seasons.
Ryan Malashock rmalashock@kansan.com
SPORTS
But at Iowa State, the wheels were in motion, and the department was too
dedicated to McCarney not to allow him another year's chance.
So in McCarney's sixth season, the Cyclones seemed a step faster and an inch bigger. They defeated Alabama in the Independence Bowl.
And this season, if the Cyclones' near miss against Florida State wasn't proof enough of their improvement, their embarrassment of Nebraska on Saturday surely was.
The breakthrough victory signified McCarney's first conquest of a ranked
But on Saturday, Iowa State passed at will. The Cyclones' offensive line opened holes on cue. The team showed more poise than the 'Huskers, drawing fewer penalties and making fewer mental mistakes.
opponent (0-24 before Saturday's win). In McCarney's six previous battles with Nebraska, Iowa State was on the short end by an average of 51 points.
McCarney's Cyclones made Nebraska look ordinary, bland and completely incapable.
That is a question Nebraska coach Frank Solich must answer. For now, he has to retool his struggling team and salvage the season while explaining to Nebraska's faithful fans why a former
What ever happened to the prototype running backs, athletic quarterbacks and mammoth linemen Nebraska seemed to grow on trees? Now, they're undersized and slow.
Could Mark Mangino mold Kansas into a Big 12 contender? The jury will be out for several years on that, but the shake-up in Ames is a nice blueprint.
Saturday was a reminder that no program is exempt from falling out of dynasty status and no program is too marooned to eventually build a dynasty.

But better yet, could Texas A&M march into Allen Fieldhouse seven years from now, knock off a spiraling Kansas basketball team and jump past the Jayhawks in the polls?

As McCarney and his upstart Iowa State Cyclones proved Saturday, anything is possible given time, effort and competent personnel.

Filmmaker and author to speak on KU campus
By Michael Vennard
mwvennard@kansan.com
Kansan Staff Writer
The Student Union Activities office announced last week filmmaker and author John Waters would visit the University of Kansas next Tuesday for a lecture and book signing.
SUA Forums Coordinator Quinn Gorges, Wichita senior, said the "John Waters: Cinematic Immunity" presentation would include a lecture by Waters, questions from the
JOHN S. HOLMES

audience and a screening of the 1988 Waters' film, Hairspray. The lecture at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union will begin at 8 p.m.
Courtney Kuhlen/Kansan
Tickets for the event will cost $6 with a KU ID or $10 for the general public. Tickets are for sale at the SUA box office in the Kansas Union as well as the Lied Center and Murphy Hall box offices.
Gorges said Waters would sign books and DVDs at the Oread Bookshop in the Kansas Union from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. on the same day. Before that, Waters will briefly address KU film students at 3 p.m. at Oldfather Studios.
"It's really exciting to have someone like Waters come to Lawrence," Gorges said yesterday.
Film student Patrick Rea said he looked forward to seeing Waters speak next week.
"I want to ask him how he started out and find out how he got to where he is now. I think a lot of graduating film students would like to hear his advice," Rea, Schuyler, Nebraska, senior, said.
In preparation for the filmmaker's visit to Lawrence, Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts, will screen Waters' 1972 cult film Pink Flamingos this Friday and Saturday night.
David Nickol, Liberty Hall's video store manager, said tickets for the 11:30 p.m. screenings would cost $4 in advance and $5 the day of the movie.
"I've seen his movies for years and years and the opportunity to see him speak, I'm excited about it. From what I hear he's a very good public speaker," Nickol said.

A story of survival

Picciotto shared his story at 8 p.m.yesterday in the Lied Center in an event sponsored by Student Union Activities. He was the highest-ranking firefighter to

Dreaming of Disney
Student to audition for classic role with Disney on Ice
By Vonna Keomanyvong
vkeomanyvong@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Danielle Ichelson has dreamt about skating as Belle from Beauty and the Beast Disney on Ice show since she was 13 years old. In November, the Scottsdale, Ariz., freshman will get the chance to audition for the show in Ontario, Calif.
"I never thought I would get a chance to audition," Ichelson said. "There is so much more that goes into shows because you're actually doing something to impress people."
Ichelson has participated in more than 100 competitions and shows, and she knows there is a difference between pleasing judges and an audience.
Dee Goldstein of Scottsdale has been
Ichelson's coach for more than four years and coaching the sport for more than 20 years. Goldstein, whose son is a member of the show, said she had recommended Ichelson for Disney on Ice.
Compared to most skaters, who view being in shows as a job, Ichelson skates in them because she loves it, Goldstein said.
"It's very hard to get an audition," Goldstein said. "There are a million skaters that want to skate for them but you have to have a little extra something for them to pick you. Danielle has that little extra perkiness."
Although the 18-year-old Ichelson has been ice skating since she was eight, she said she first started out with roller skates at age five.
But she eventually quit roller skating when she found out that she could not roller-skate professionally, and after her first trip on the ice, she was hooked.
"I went on the ice with a friend who was an ice skater." Ichelson said. "I took

Cheaters still hard to catch

LeifSteiner said he plagiarized all the time his senior year of high school.
"It was so I didn't have to spend hours on end researching for a paper," the Oakley freshman said.
But now that he's arrived at college, he plays by a different set of rules.
"Now, you're paying good money for an education so you might as well put effort into it," Steiner said.
A 2000 poll by Who's Who Among College Students found that 80 percent of college freshmen have admitted to cheating on their work and only five percent of these cheaters are ever caught in the act. Some college instructors at the University of Kansas said they noticed an increase in plagiarism cases.
"I think it's because students are lazy," said David Dewar, senior instructor in Humanities and Western Civilization. "There's a lot of pressure to get good grades, but this won't help students on the other side of college."
In the fight against plagiarism, the University employs several techniques to catch copycat students. One tool used is turnitin.com, a Web site that allows instructors to upload student papers to a large database of millions of college writings from other universities and Web sites. Once online, the paper can be cross-referenced with papers from other classes as well as papers from the same class. The Department of Western Civilization is one of several departments using this site.
The technology has yet to become a staple. Instructors still prefer more traditional methods, such as looking for inconsistencies in a student's writing style or comparing notes with instructors of other sections of the same class.
"Students don't seem to realize that instructors are familiar with the literature in their field, that instructors can recognize a student's writing style and that instructors talk to each other," said Pam Houston, director of undergraduate services for the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.
Accusing students of plagiarism is nothing to laugh about. Eric Caughey, Lawrence junior, said an instructor wrongfully accused him of plagiarism on a paper his fresh-

Door-to-door solicitors can mislead students
By Nathan Dayani

Kansan staff writer
Sometimes, living near or on campus can mean a constant fight against solicitors.
Last week, a door-to-door solicitor paid a visit to Jeff Meyers, Shawnee sophomore. Meyers, who lives near Memorial Stadium, said the solicitor asked him to write a check for magazine subscriptions and said Meyers could cancel the check later and still win free prizes. Meyers said the solicitor lacked credibility.
cubbity. "He didn't sound very smart," he said.
Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office said students should be wary of door-to-door solicitors because they might mislead students and attempt to take financial advantage of them. He said if residents had concerns about the solicitors' legitimacy they should call the police.
"I kept on questioning him and said, 'Hey this still doesn't make sense, and I still don't believe someone would do this.'"
don't suggest you buy it
He said solicitation regulations differed on and off campus. Residence halls are subject to University and state policy, whereas off-campus residences are sub-
pence. "You can ignore them," Bailey said. "I don't suggest you buy from them."
ject to city law.
Diana Robertson, associate director of student housing, said the University's anti-solicitation laws were geared toward protecting students' privacy. The department does not allow anyone to sell anything door-to-door, she said.
Any person or organization considering solicitation at campus residences must get permission from the department of student housing. Robertson said the department only granted permission to campus groups and limited solicitation to the residence hall lobbies.
Robertson said local businesses occasionally tried to solicit students at residence halls. Christine Thoorsell, complex director of Oliver Hall, said magazine solicitors came to Oliver two to four weeks ago.
Solicitors can work door-to-door off campus if they obtain permits from the city, said Jerry Little, assistant district attorney. Little said the city only received about one solicitation complaint or charge every six months.
He said more violations probably occurred but weren't reported because residents didn't think solicitation harassment warranted police notification.
Dann Petersen, Meyers' roommate, said a solicitor came to their home about two weeks ago. He said he probably viewed solicitation differently from most
people because he had worked in telemarketing.
marketing. "I always feel bad about being rude to people on the phone or in person, so I'm pretty willing to hear what they have to say," said Petersen, Madison, Wis., junior.
Petersen said many companies trained solicitors to be persistent and not to take no for an answer.
"If somebody says no, you're supposed to direct them in a different way," he said. "It was kind of the rule that you make a person say no three different times before you give up on them."

A story in yesterday's Kansan, "Research quest loses player," incorrectly stated that research costs in the 1995-96 and 2002-03 school years were covered in part by tuition money. Researching funding in those two years breaks down as follows:
In 2002-03, $224 million in total research funding includes $140 million from grants and other external sources. The remaining $84 million is covered with institutional funds, including state funds for organized research units, general purpose research funds and unrecovered facilities and administrative costs.
In 1995-96, $124 million in total research funding included $94 million from grants and external sources and $30 million from institutional funds.

Christian group to refresh lives and share views
By Aaron Passman
apassman@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Campus Christians at the University of Kansas will use this weekend to reconnect with God and meet others who share their views.
More than 30 Campus Christians will join 15 to 18 campus ministries from Kansas, Nebraska, Arkansas, and other Midwestern states for worship, praise, teachings from the Scriptures and social activities, said Jim Musser, campus minister for Campus Christians.
Students, campus ministers and Lawrence residents will attend the retreat from Friday through Sunday at the Maranatha Retreat Center in Everton, Mo., about 40 minutes northwest of Springfield.
Musser said this year's retreat would focus on leadership, and would feature topical workshops on subjects such as dealing with difficulties in life, working with non-Christian professors and understanding God's will.
Registration fees for the retreat are $45.
Sheila Black, Campus Christians student intern, said students could use the retreat to refresh their spiritual lives.
"The purpose is to grow closer to the Lord," said Black, Lawrence senior. "There's teaching and seminars, but there's also free time to spend alone and be contemplative."

aspect, Musser said the retreat was also an important social function.
"It's a really good time for new students to our ministry to get to know other students in our ministry, as well as other students at the retreat," Musser said.
Chris Crandall, associate professor of psychology, said spiritual retreats provided a positive experience for those involved because of similar world views.
"People like group life." Crandall said. "I think people like to be with similar others, that's true of anything, and it's especially true if you're a relative minority of any kind."
Crandall said the group dynamic in a situation like the retreat made the experience more pleasant because the participants would not have to spend time negotiating beliefs.

Renters insurance saves students' stuff
By Matt Stumpff
mstumpff@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Renters insurance can be valuable for students looking to protect their possessions.
Students can protect their property from fire damage and theft by signing up for renters insurance. For example, if a fire breaks out in one apartment and spreads, involved tenants can recover their losses only if they have this coverage.
More people signed up for renters insurance with American Family Insurance when school started this fall than any other
time this year, said Debbie Scrivner, assistant for the company, 901 Kentucky. She said students made up the majority of American Family's renters insurance policy holders.
"I've found that their parents told them to get it," Scrivner said.
She said student policies typically cost between $12 and $20 a month. Scriner said many insurance companies in Lawrence didn't carry renters insurance because it is not a high priced policy and students aren't long-term customers.
The department of student housing encouraged residents to sign up for renters insurance
when it notified students of their room assignments, said Diana Robertson, associate director for residence life.
She said it was a good idea because the University of Kansas has insurance coverage that covers the residence halls, but not students' property.
The same rule of thumb applies to off-campus renters. Tenants are not covered under landlords' insurance policies.
Students don't usually think about getting renters insurance, said Jaime Karnes, Burlington, Vt., junior. She said the only reason she had it in the past was because her insurance agent sold
it to her when she was obtaining insurance for her new car.
Karnes said she switched insurance companies when she moved from Burlington to Lawrence and didn't pick up a new renters insurance policy when she moved in. She said she no longer wanted renters insurance because of a tight budget.
Another factor discouraging her from getting the insurance was that a policy wouldn't fit her needs.
"I don't even have half of my belongings here," Karnes said.

New community outreach groups form
By George Schulz
Kansan staff writer
gschulz.com
In response to requests from students and community agencies for new volunteer programs, three new student organizations have formed under the directional support of the Center for Community Outreach.
Community Resources Engaging in the Arts Through Education, Environmental Action to Revitalize the Heartland, and Lifeline will not officially be a part of CCO.
The center will help with coordinating efforts, generating publicity and attracting interested student volunteers to the programs.
So far, almost 40 students have expressed interest in leadership and coordination positions, said Margaret Perkins-McGuinness, co-director of CCO and Lawrence junior.
She said students and CCO
volunteers had expressed interest in working for groups that provided specific services such as art education, environmental cleanup and life-skills training.
CREATE will provide art history education and teach physical and expressive art designs.
"We want to give people a broad definition of art," said Perkins-McGuinness. "The program will start with children and hopefully expand to serve older adults and individuals with disabilities."
The program will work in conjunction with the Ballard Community Resource Center, 708 Elm, which serves as a food and clothing pantry and also provides rent and utility assistance to the poor.
Ballard also has an early-education program for 55 children ranging from 1-year-olds to kindergartners who will participate in CREATE.
of the center, said he was looking forward to working with the student volunteers.
"I think it will provide another avenue for the children's development" he said.
Perkins-McGuinness said she hoped art projects produced by children involved with CREATE could be displayed at local businesses and museums and the Lawrence Arts Center.
Chip Blazer, assistant director
The children will work in a variety of media including dance, theater, sculpture, painting and textiles.
EARTH, at this time, is not as organized as CREATE. PerkinsMcGuinness said meetings for interested volunteers would be scheduled soon. EARTH will give volunteers a chance to work directly on environmental cleanup projects at area parks and nature preserves.
"There are a lot of opportunities in Lawrence for environmental activism," she said. "But there haven't been any chances
for students to get their hands dirty."
The work will include clearing hiking paths, making parks more accessible and encouraging student groups to adopt parks for clean-up responsibilities.
Lifeline, also in its developing stages at this time, will employ KU students as volunteers for lifeskills education to local high school students.
Volunteers will visit high schools to teach kids how to design resumes and form office skills.
The program will also connect low-income high school students with low-income KU students to teach them how to budget money for college and how to fill out student loan forms.
Information about the new groups can be found at the CCO offices, 405 Kansas Union, or by calling 864-4073.

Coach should practice good sportsmanship
Sportsmanship is the most important element of athletics. Education is the most important element of a university Therefore, teaching sportsmanship is the most important element of university athletics.
It is important that Mark Mangino win games, but, because he is an example to his players, it is essential that he embody sportsmanship.
On Sept. 20 Mangino failed at this.
The KU football coach reportedly approached referees after his son's Lawrence High School football game and yelled at them.
Certainly one can understand that Mangino might have disagreed with play, but if he wanted to tell referees about his disagreement, it was his obligation to conduct himself as a professional.
It was his obligation to restrain himself and control his emotions.
sen and counter them.
Mangino has said the issue that upset him was a missed late-hit call that could have protected his son from injury. When a child is hurt, it is only natural for his parents to be incensed.
Any decent parent would have questioned the call.
However, other parents would have made their grips from the bleachers. And other parents are not representatives of the University of Kansas.
To say Mangino has been on the hot seat since he arrived at the University is
an understatement.
Ardent Kansas fans have high hopes for the touted football patriarch.
If the Jayhawks become a force in Big 12 Conference football, he will be a hero.
If they fizzle, he will bear the brunt of the blame. He is under the public microscope.
His behavior at that high school football game has been highly scrutinized and perhaps even blown out of proportion.
But this sort of attention comes with the territory as football coach of a Division I team, and his actions were inappropriate.
Mangino now faces a challenge. How does he fulfill his duty to personify sportsmanship? So far, he has both defended his actions and offered an apology. These statements may dampen the current fire and quiet the press, but they do not have adequate long-term effects.
To counteract last weekend's actions in a meaningful way, he must set a tone of sportsmanship in the football program. His conduct can set an example for the team, for the Athletics Department and for KU.
He has the opportunity to create a tradition of excellence on the field and in the bleachers.

Mangino right to stand up for son
The duty of a father comes first.
The Kansas football coach, Mark Mangino, was reportedly seen yelling at game officials Sept. 20 after his son took a late tackle in the Lawrence High School football game. Mangino's son was injured and had to be taken out of the game.
The incident has caused Big 12 Conference hoopla.
Mangino acted on instinct to protect his son.
His actions as a parent shouldn't be looked at differently because he is the KU football coach. Mangino's role as a father supercedes his role as a football coach, and his actions are understandable.
When Mangino is present at his son's high school football game, he should be viewed as a spectator in the audience.
Whether he stands on the sideline or sits in the bleachers, he is there to support his son and the Lawrence High
team.
Watching the game as a father, Mangino saw the play from a different perspective. He wanted the officials to take action. And as a disgruntled fan, he handled the situation himself. Mangino demonstrated the role he will always play, that of a father.
Although Mangino is a public figure, his actions were outside his duties as a football coach at KU.
When crazy soccer moms jump on officials for an unjust call, pictures aren't splattered on the front page of local and regional newspapers.
In every high school sport, parents act in the same manner but are not reprimanded.
Unfortunately, Mangino's situation was treated differently.
was treated differently. Mangino gave a public apology on his radio show late Thursday evening. The apology, which included the admission of inappropriate behavior, was unnecessary.
He shouldn't have to apologize for acting as a parent. He had his son's best interest in mind and vocalized his thoughts.
A minor scuffle at a high school football game shouldn't require an apology, nor should it reflect his coaching ability, parenting choices or position as a role model.
Lawrence High officials could have ended the frenzy of attention from the press by banning Mangino from his son's next home game. This is a customary punishment for outbursts from fans in Lawrence public schools, according to the Lawrence Journal-World. The fact that they didn't shows they didn't view this as the big deal it has been portrayed to be.
People aren't perfect. Parents make mistakes, and all parents, celebrity or non-celebrity, should be treated the same.

run?
Eye catching, wouldn't you say?
If that one isn't, how about the larger one that ran in Sex on the Hill, which included a girl falling out of her shirt claiming "Our Girls Will Blow...your minds."
I have heard it said that a newspaper is nothing more than the product of its advertisers.
To a degree, this can be true.
Many people don't realize that while the Kansan receives funding through student fees, most of its revenue comes from advertising.
Then to what degree does a staff have authority over what advertisements are
If that money is so desperately needed to print a daily newspaper that depends heavily on which ads go in, wouldn't it make sense that the staff runs anything and everything it can get it's hands on?
The Kansan advertising acceptance policy clearly states "All advertising is subject to approval by the acceptance committee."
According to Matt Fisher, sales and marketing advisor, that policy is not often necessary.
READERS' REPRESENTATIVE
If an advertisement is illegal, libelous, misleading, discriminatory or controversial in any manner, the acceptance committee may review it.
I
Sometimes the committee will call the person behind the ad and request a change be made.

"As long as the people are fully clothed and are not participating in a vulgar action, the Kansan can and will run them."
If necessary, the committee can and has chose to flat out refuse to run an ad.
Yet, the policy does not specifically state anything pertaining to distasteful advertisements.
As long as the people are fully clothed and are not participating in a vulgar action, the Kansan can and, as can be seen by the weekly appearances of such ads as Bada Bing, will run them.
Complaints about such ads being distasteful and possibly pornographic have arisen, yet the Kansan staff feels that Bada Bing as a strip club is merely advertising what the business offers.
An advertisement also running in this week's publications deals with a different type of discrimination.
Unless the advertisement specifically uses discriminatory language or images.
the committee cannot claim that any discrimination is apparent.
Yet there will always be someone who feels, despite the specific language used, that a certain ad is discriminatory, distasteful, or even wrong.
To those individuals, Fisher suggests taking a very proactive approach. Advertisements are available to anyone, not just business or organizations.
As long as the ad is once again free of discrimination and fits the other guidelines of the Kansan's acceptance policy, then the individual has every right to place his or her own ad against one that is currently running.

Start your search
Career planning help available
By Erin Beatty
ebeatty@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Students graduating this year should be aware that it's not too early to start career-planning activities.
Graduating students should already be networking with employers and researching the types of organizations they want to work for, said Liz Caldwell, University Career and Employment Services recruitment coordinator. She also said students should be revising their resumes.
"Students should improve their resumes at the earliest possible moment." Caldwell said.
Cathy Schwabauer, engineering career services director, warned that certain companies recruited employees and interns only during the fall, so students shouldn't miss the opportunity to interview or submit resumes.
David Libby, business recruiting coordinator, said if business students who planned to graduate this semester hadn't already practiced interviewing skills and attended job fairs, they were behind. He said the most important step for graduating seniors to take was to register at their respective career centers and use
the Experience e-recruiting software.
Jamie Patrick, Topeka senior, is planning to graduate in May and said she was concerned about finding a job. Patrick is enrolled in the class bus 600, Career Planning and Job Search Strategies, and planned to attend career fairs throughout the semester. She attended the career fair at the Kansas Union last week and also attended a resume review workshop given by UCES.
UCES has planned activities to help students improve their resumes and conduct job searches.
This afternoon, Mary Andrade, assistant director of UCES, will conduct a workshop for students on interviewing skills. Andrade will cover what employers look for in an employee during interviews and discuss how students can best display their skills and experiences in their answers.
She will also go over practice questions with students, including questions students find difficult. Andrade said examples of tough interview questions are: "What are your weaknesses?" and "Will you tell me about yourself?"
Adrade's workshop will be held
3:30 to 4:30 p.m. today at room
149 in the Burge Union.

Career-Planning Tips:
Take leadership roles in clubs, activities and volunteer organizations. Employers are impressed by students who take initiative.
Update your resume. Create several versions that can be used for various job positions. Have a career counselor prineue them for you.
Conduct informational interviews with professionals in your career field. Ask to shadow a professional for a day to find out about the daily routine of that career.
Join professional organizations in your field. They can be a good source for contacts and job leads.
Sign up for interviews with on campus recruiters. Practice your interviewing skills. Remember to follow up your interviews with a thank-you note to the recruiter.
Attend career fairs. Bring several resumes to give out, and keep all business cards you receive.
Use free job-search Web sites. Their job boards have comprehensive and up-to-date job listings.
Register at your respective career center and search job listings on Experience e-recruiting software.

Dissection cut in some schools
A 16-year-old honor student in Baltimore was removed from her anatomy class last week after refusing to dissect a cat, then allowed back in with the option of computer alternatives after protesters picketed the high school.
Increasing numbers of students are asking to opt out of the science class ritual of dissecting frogs or fetal pigs, branding the practice cruel and insisting they can learn as much from computer simulations.
Anti-dissection students also appealed for policy changes this year at a school board meeting in Little Chute, Wis., and last year before a state Senate committee in Vermont.

tion."
According to the Humane Society of the United States, eight states have approved opt-out policies — California, Florida, Illinois, Louisiana, Maine, New York, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island. A similar policy is pending in New Jersey's legislature.
Wayne Carley, the association's executive director, said many who oppose dissection "act on emotion rather than intellect."
The 9,000-member National Association of Biology Teachers is wary of the push for alternatives. Although it urges teachers to be sensitive to students' objections, its formal position says, "No alternative can substitute for the actual experience of dissec-
The Humane Society estimates that 6 million animals are dissected annually in American schools. The society distributes anti-dissection videos and loans computer software to schools interested in offering alternatives,
"This is an issue of academic freedom," he said. "A welltrained teacher has the knowledge and experience to know how best to use dissection."
The National Science Teachers Association, which claims 53,000 members, also defends dissection but advises teachers to be flexible.
The pressure to cut back on dissections is even being felt in college and graduate programs. King said the Humane Society accepted the need for dissections in veterinary education, but urged schools to use only animals that had been euthanized because of illness or old age.
Drug tampering trial to continue
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A judge on Tuesday denied a motion to dismiss a lawsuit against two pharmaceutical companies and former pharmacist Robert Courtney, clearing the way for jury selection to begin on Thursday.
Senior Judge Lee E. Wells also ruled that the cases against Courtney, Eli Lilly & Co. and Bristol-Myers Squibb Co. will be tried together in Jackson County Circuit Court.
The pharmaceutical companies had sought to have their cases separated from the case against Courtney, who has already pleaded guilty to federal charges of adulterating, misbranding and tampering with chemotherapy medications.
He is scheduled to be sentenced in December and faces up to 30 years in prison.
Wells' ruling came a day after attorneys from both sides met with professional mediator and former Houston judge Susan Soussan. Citing a court order, attorneys declined Tuesday to reveal what was said in that meeting.
"I think the judge intended all along that we were going to try this case," said Eli Lilly's attorney, Marie Woodbury.
The lawsuit, brought by ovarian cancer patient Georgia Hayes, alleges that the drug companies knew or should have known that Courtney was diluting cancer medications.
cases.
It was the first of hundreds of lawsuits against the drug makers and is considered a barometer of the likely outcome of the other
Indiana-based Eli Lilly and Bristol-Myers Squibb, headquartered in New Jersey, contend they had no way of knowing of Courtney's scheme, and also dispute whether Hayes — who is now in remission — suffered lasting harm.
The companies knew in 1998 that Courtney was selling more of the chemotherapy drugs than he was buying, the lawsuit contends, and should have followed up by investigating Courtney and reporting their concerns to the Food and Drug Administration.
Butattorneys for the drug companies contended that those practices relate to counterfeit drugs, not misbranded drugs.
A final round of pretrial motions was set for Wednesday afternoon.

experiences from that day. He described the sensation as the North Tower collapsed.
"We were tossed around like rag dolls," he said.
Sarah Korbecki, St. Louis, Mo., junior, said she attended the speech to hear someone's first-hand experience of the attacks.
Mike Modjeski, Lombard, Ill. senior, said Picciotto's message was inspirational because of his own desire to be a firefighter someday.
Earlier, Picciotto said talking about his experiences on Sept. 11 was a major part of his healing process.

Picciotto recently published a book, Last Man Down: A Firefighter's Story. The title describes Picciotto's mindset that day. He described how he would "sween"
each floor on the way down the North tower to make sure no people were left. The audience chuckled as he told of a businessman who told Picciotto to leave him be because he had work to do.
"I told the firefighters, 'If he doesn't walk down the stairs, throw him down,'" he said. "I wanted to be the last man down."
Earlier that day, Picciotto said he had three pieces of advice for students work hard, play hard and party hard.
Picciotto said most young people were affected by the events of Sept. 11.
"This is one of the first major things that affected their lives," he said. "It brought out a lot of patriotism."
"But you have to do all three," he said. "Hard work is its own reward."

Plagiarism CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
But still, students think of it as a viable option to succeed. Houston said there were two types of students who plagiarized.
"I was afraid people weren't going to believe me," he said. "Anyone who does it is just asking for trouble."
The first was a chronic cheater who cut corners whenever possible. The other was a student who decided to do it at the last minute because of falling behind in class.
"Sometimes students say they were not aware that they plagiarized something," she said. "But ignorance isn't a good argument."
This semester, there have been no reported cases of plagiarism on campus. However, each department handles minor instances without getting a higher authority involved. These cases are punishable by a stern lecture to the student, an admission of guilt by the student or a failing grade on the assignment or class. A record of the incident is also noted in the student's file.
"It pains me a great deal," Dewar said about catching students who cheat. "A paper you work hard on gives you a warm fuzzy feeling, but also a better education."

Compared to competitive skaters like Michelle Kwan, she did not incorporate a lot of jumps in her routine, Ichelson said.
"I like skating when it was more graceful," Ichelson said. "Right now ice skating is all about doing quads and stuff. But there's a lot more to skating than jumps."
Ichelson's mother, Donna Beavers, said her daughter did not add many jumps in her routines because she had weak ankles. Ichelson had already broken her ankle twice while ice skating.
But because her daughter
could not jump as much in her routines, she perfected her spinning and artistry, Beavers said.
"She can skate to a program and you won't even remember if she jumped because she's that good," Beavers said. "She took a deficit and turned it into a benefit."
For the audition, Ichelson has to practice for at least three hours every day at skating rinks like the AMF King Louie West in Overland Park, Kan. If Ichelson is accepted, she will have to leave school for about eight months to tour. But Ichelson said that was a sacrifice she had to make.
"Your dream comes at one point in your life and if you pass it up than you may not get it again." Ichelson said. "It's a sacrifice but for me it's worth it."

BOULDER, Colo. (AP) University of Colorado students in three dormitories are on edge after peepholes were discovered in several bathroom walls over a six-month period.
The most recent cases involved three peepholes that were drilled through housekeeping closet walls next to men's and women's dormitory bathrooms.

Nine women who lived in Farrand Hall have filed notice of intent to sue the university for failing to warn them earlier.
Coffin said a security consultant has been hired to evaluate safety and surveillance equipment may be installed in dorms. University officials have also stepped up security by requiring weekly dorm inspections, identification cards to get into utility closets and picture IDs for all visitors.
"We're also worried about student privacy," she said. "We don't want them to be thinking there's a Big Brother watching over them."

Cable companies control about 70% of the highspeed Internet market nationwide and in Kansas not because they offer better products or services than their competitors, but simply because they face less regulation. Companies offering the same services should be regulated the same way.

Fair broadband rules will benefit Kansans
Everyone agrees: broadband - or high-speed Internet access - is vital to the future success of Kansas. Broadband is a critical tool in today's global economic environment, and access to it is an important consideration for companies seeking to move or grow their businesses.
The trouble is, broadband isn't as accessible as it should be. SBC Southwestern Bell has invested millions into Kansas' broadband network in order to provide its version of high-speed Internet access. Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) service to customers, yet because of uneven regulation many Kansans can access broadband only through cable or not at all.
Why? Telecommunications companies like SBC which are trying to compete are burdened with dozens of costly rules and regulations. And state regulators are contemplating adding their own rules on top of the regulations already in place. Such heavy-handed regulation raises the price of providing DSL service, slows broadband deployment and hinders network investment. Above all, it creates an unfair competitive marketplace, which ultimately hurts customers like you.
In fact, cable companies control about 70% of the broadband market nationwide and in Kansas not because they offer better products or services than their competitors, but simply because they face less regulation. Here in Kansas cable companies face no state broadband regulation whatsoever. And of course, they're loving it.
Companies offering the same services should be treated the same way. And less regulation will clearly mean more competition in broadband. It's time for our state's policy-makers to level the playing field for high-speed Internet access. Talk to your legislators about this issue, and urge them to ensure that high-speed Internet deployment moves forward, by making the rules fair. Once they do, all Kansans will reap the rewards of real broadband competition — better prices, more choices, a stronger network and greater access.

Defense takes on new focus
By John Domoney
jdomoney@kansan.com
Kansan sportwriter
Kansas football coach Mark Mangino has issued a new goal for his defense as the Jayhawks prepare for Baylor University this week in practice.
Mangino wants his defenders to stop thinking so much during the play and simply go after the opposing offense with ferocious abandon.
"We've just gotta have the mentality where we're going to come off the ball, and we're not going to think so much," Mangino said. "We not going to worry what our assignments are, we're just going to cut loose and make plays."
So far this year the Jayhawk defense has struggled at times; it has allowed an average of 34 points per game.
Kansas's inability to keep opponents out of the endzone and improve its rush
defense, which gives up an average of 260 yards per game, puts the Jayhawks last in total defense rankings in the Big 12 Conference.
The Jayhawks limited the Golden Hurricane offensive to 19 points through three quarters last Saturday. But the defense had a breakdown late in the game with what Mangino called 'cautious defense,' and the Jayhawks surrendered two late touchdowns to turn a blowout into a close game.
Mangino said his defense could play well and limit the opposing offense to short gains. He said the problem occurred when the defense made a mistake that tended to lead to a series of breakdowns.
"When our defense does make a mistake and give up a play, they've got to get over it," Mangino said.

University of Kansas student athletes earned a lower grade point average than non-athletes last year by a slim margin.
Student athletes earned an average GPA of 2.83 for Fall 2001, compared to the 2.95 average undergraduate GPA for the Lawrence campus. The student athlete GPA rose slightly to 2.89 for Spring 2002, compared to the undergraduate average of 3.01.
"That's pretty good considering we have, like, four more hours of work per day than students who don't play sports," said Lauren Royall, Tulsa senior and member of the women's rowing team. "Athletes generally find it harder to manage our time for school."
Royall said that student athletes traveled during the week and on weekends, making it more difficult to dedicate time to school work.
Even so, KU boasts 197 Jayhawk Scholars, meaning 51 percent of all athletes earned a GPA of 3.0 or higher. Of these, 22 had a perfect 4.0 GPA.
"It's just making sure you communicate with professors and get work handed in early if you're going to miss class, and making sure you make up everything you miss while you're gone," said Jamie Morningstar, Lawrence senior and volleyball player. Morningstar is a Jayhawk Scholar.
The women's cross country team had the highest Fall 2001 GPA with a 3.57. The lowest was the football team's 2.38 GPA.
In Spring 2002, women's swimming had the highest average of 3.37.Football again had the lowest with a 2.58 GPA.

Smith forges wins for soccer team
Perhaps the crowd of more than 1,500 soccer fans last weekend was the result of relentless promotion. Maybe they came to see the soccer team's successful product.And maybe it was simply the opportunity to watch beautiful girls play rough.
But no matter their reason for coming, every fan probably all left in awe of one player's performance.
her name is Caroline Smith. She's just the baby on the team—a freshman who turned 18 in August—and she's one of four current Jayhawks who had nothing to do with last year's NCAA tournament run Kansas put together. But she's certainly making sure she has plenty to do with a repeat effort this season.
"As a team," Smith said. "I think we're doing really well right now."
And they are. They've played 10 games so far, losing just one. Meghan Miller has been sensational as goalkeeper The defense has been relentless, allowing just two goals the last five games.

But the story so far has been Caroline Smith.
"She's gotten off to a good start," coach Mark Francis said. "She's getting more and more confident every game. She's getting better and better."
If that's the case, God help the Big 12. It's in deep trouble.

"This was a bit disappointing. We had too many service errors, didn't dig the balls or block as well as we had," coach Ray Bechard said. "We didn't have our best effort."
Despite the 3-0 sweep, this is one win the Kansas volleyball squad would like to forget.
The Jayhawks finished their non conference season undefeated (9-0) last night, beating the University of Missouri-Kansas City Kangaroos three games to none (30-22, 30-27, 30-25). Kansas extended their winning streak over UMKC to 11 matches. The team's all-time record over the Kangaroos is 22-1.
Bu Beard said the team had won the match 3-0 and finished nonconference undefeated. He planned to concentrate on the rest of the conference season.
Kansas was held to a sub .300 hitting percentage. The team committed 13 service errors, the most this season in a three game match. Freshman Josiane Lima led the team with 13 kills and 12 digs, her fifth double-double this season. Junior outside hitter Sarah Rome was the only other layhawk with double-digit digs with 11.

"What I've found nice is that I can focus all my energy on the women," Campbell said. "There's so many things you do different in men's and women's like recruiting and coaching
Campbell coached men's and women's swimming and diving for four years at the University of Evansville and was named Missouri Valley Conference Coach of the Year in 2000, but he said he liked coaching a single team at Kansas.
Campbell said he will be leaning hard on his senior captains, but they know they will not be the only ones to feel the pressure.
"There are people in every class that will be able to contribute," senior cocaptain Heidi Landherr said.
"Our team is a unit," Haley said. We're a very close knit team."
The Jayhawks defeated Southern Illinois 119-80 in a dual on Friday and 31-59 in the annual Lake Race between the two teams. In the Lake Race, teams were awarded points according to the place it finished. Kansas won five races in the meet with six girls finishing in the top 10.
so it's nice to focus on just one."
The team will have an intrasquad scrimmage at 6 p.m. Friday in the Robinson Natatorium, at the southeast corner of Naismith Drive and Sunnyside Avenue. Campbell thought the scrimmage would be a good test.
"I want to see how they attack a standard college format because last meet was the high school format," Campbell said.

Knicks star faces assault charge
The Associated Press
STAMFORD, Conn. — New York Knicks center Kurt Thomas was ordered to stay away from his wife and home at his arraignment yesterday on charges he assaulted her during an argument over a laptop computer.
Amber Thomas' lawyer, Gary Cohen, says the 6-foot-9, 235-pound player assaulted his wife while she was holding the couple's daughter. Kurt Thomas' lawyer denied this accusation. Two other children Amber Thomas had from a previous marriage were not home at the time, Cohen said.
Thomas did not enter a plea to charges of third-degree assault and risk of injury to a minor.

Baseball labor agreement now official
The Associated Press
NEWYORK—Baseball players and owners made their labor settlement official Tuesday, signing a memorandum that outlines the labor deal that avoided a strike.
Union head Donald Fehr and Rob Manfred, the owners' top labor lawyer, signed the "memorandum of understanding" separately Tuesday at their offices.
The agreement, which binds the parties, ensures baseball will have labor peace through the 2006 season.
The guarantee of 11 straight uninterrupted seasons following the end of the 1994-95 strike would be the longest period without a stoppage since the players' association was formed in 1966.
On Aug. 16, the union's executive board set an Aug.30 date for a strike, which would have been baseball's ninth work stoppage since 1972.

Sims to start against Jets Sunday
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Ryan Sims, a training camp holdout called "fat and out of shape" by coach Dick Vermeil when he first reported, will get his first start Sunday against the New York Jets.
Vermeil said yesterday the 6-4, 315-pound Sims, the sixth player drafted overall, would start over Derrick Ransom at defensive tackle.
Sims, working himself into shape, has seen his role gradually increase each week for the Chiefs (2-2).
"He has 10 quarterback hurries and three pressures," Vermeil said. "And he's been involved in a number of tackles away from the point of attack. He's a big, strong and explosive guy. He's not a secret to us. The reason we invested that kind of money is
because we can project what he might be able to do once he gets going."
Vermeil said the move was not influenced by the $9.75 million signing bonus the Chiefs gave Sims at the end of the long holdout, though Vermeil agreed that bonus money does sometimes influence whether a player gets to play.
"It's not a factor here, but there is a tendency to do that," he said. "(Nobody) came to me and said, 'We've got all this money invested, let's start our first-round pick,'
They never even mentioned it."
Sims said last week before the Chiefs beat Miami 48-30 that he felt he was picking up his pace every week.
"I'm slowly getting into the scheme," he said. "It's kind of complicated right now. But I've got these guys helping me out on
the field. Hopefully, this week I'll get into it fully."
He said he would give himself a C minus.
"I've done all right," he said. "All I can do is improve. That's what I keep thinking — I can't do anything but get better."
Vermeil also said Eddie Freeman, who was taken in the second round after Sims, was being shifted from defensive tackle to end, where the Chiefs had projected him when they drafted him.
"That's really where we had him projected from the start," Vermell said. "But during training camp, for a lot of reasons, we needed to keep him inside."
Vermeil said Sims still has far to go.
"We won't see the best of him Sunday. We won't see the best of him this year," he said. "But you will see the best of him. He will be
"We knew what kind of person he was,what kind of person he is, what kind of player he's going to be."

a dominating player."
Vermeil said he was not surprised at how quickly Sims has caught on after missing training camp.
"We knew what kind of person he was, what kind of person he is, what kind of player he's going to be."
Vermeil also said safety Jason Belser might not be over a deep hip bruise in time to play against the Jets, which would put them down to their third-team safety.
Marijuana possession last of Moss' charges
The Associated Press
MINNEAPOLIS — Minnesota Vikings star receiver Randy Moss was charged yesterday with possession of a small amount of marijuana, adding to charges last week that he pushed a traffic officer with his car.
The new petty misdemean count carries a fine of up to $200, but it could also lead to a suspension or fine from the NFL.
son of his mother.
Police said they found a marijuana cigarette in Moss' car after he was arrested on Sept. 24. Moss was driving in downtown Minneapolis when the traffic officer stepped in front of his car to stop him from making an illegal turn. She was slightly injured when she
fell off the car.
Moss spent the night in jail and was charged the next day with careless driving and failure to obey a traffic officer, both misdemeanors.
The complaint said the marijuana amounted to just under a gram. Moss has said the marijuana did not belong to him and that he had allowed other people to use his car recently.
ESPN reported Sunday that Moss was already in the league's substance abuse program for testing positive for marijuana last year, and underwent another test by the NFL after his arrest last week.
NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said the league would review the
case.
"Under the policy, a drug-related violation of the law is grounds for disciplinary action," Aiello said.
Moss was allowed to play in last Sunday's 48-23 loss at Seattle.
Moss could lose his driving privileges in Minnesota for a year because he refused to take a police test for drug or alcohol use when he was arrested, said Kevin Smith, a spokesman for the Minnesota Department of Public Safety.
Moss, who has only a Florida driver's license, also could lose driving privileges in Florida, Smith said.
City prosecutors on Tuesday added two new traffic counts to
the charges: making an improper turn at an intersection in a hazardous manner, a misdemeanor, and obstructing traffic with a vehicle, a petty misdemeanor.
Each misdemeanor count carries a maximum penalty of 90 days in jail and up to a $1,000 fine. The maximum fine on the obstructing traffic count is $300. Neither petty misdemeanor count carries jail time.
The 25-year-old Moss was to be arraigned Wednesday. Defense lawyer Joe Friedberg said Moss was not required to appear and would not be there.
"At some point we will enter not guilty pleas to all of these counts," Friedberg said.
Royals end season with record losses
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. When they storm the field and attack your first-base coach, it's a bad year.
Like Tom Gamboa, who was blindsided by a shirtless father and son in Chicago, the woeful Royals of 2002 never knew what hit them.
Lacking team defense, starting pitching, depth, consistency and middle infield skills, the Royals' worst team lost a franchise-record 100 games. It was the third time in four years they've lost at least 97.
For pumping in an extra $20 million and bringing the payroll to nearly $50 million, owner David Glass got three fewer victories than the previous year.
Look for extensive payroll slashing. Reliever Roberto Hernandez is almost surely gone, along with outfieldier Chuck Knoblauch and weak-hitting shortstop Neifi Perez.
Home attendance plunged almost 2,000 a game to an average barely more than 17,000 the lowest in 27 years.
But several thousand fans who cared enough to show up at a "protest game" organized by a radio station right before the expected strike were only berated by indignant players.
When Oakland grabbed a 6-0 lead in the first inning, thousands of fans began chanting "Strike right now! Strike right now!"
The harassment never stopped. They cheered every time the Athletics did something good, booed when anything positive happened for the home team.
The remarkable night marked a historic low in the player-fan relationship at a ballpark that used to draw more than 2 million annually.
About the same time, the Missouri Legislature chose to ignore commissioner Bud Selig's warning that renovating aging Kauffman Stadium was key to baseball's future in Kansas City. A funding bill failed even to come to vote.
Most disgusting was the decision not to outfit players in Kansas City Monarchs uniforms on the day major league baseball paid homage to the Negro Leagues.
It was in Kansas City in 1920 that Rube Foster founded the Negro Leagues.
The Negro Leagues Museum and Hall of Fame is not far from Kauffman Stadium, but Royals marketing director Charlie SeAlso good was the way Gamboa, describing himself as "a no-name guy having his 15 minutes of fame," bounced right back without permanent damage. rraphin said he vetoed the Monarchs uniforms because he didn't know about Kansas City's ties to the Negro Leagues.
The few successes of note during the horrible season:
First baseman Mike Sweeney signed a $55 million contract extension and hit.340
First baseman/outfielder Raul Ibanez had a breakout year with 24 homers and 103 RBIs. Center fielder Carlos Beltran drove in 105 runs with 29 homers.

Cyrus show starting third season
The Associated Press
RENO, Nev. — Billy Ray Cyrus, who's not a doctor in real life, is surprised he's still playing a doctor on television.
"I thought we might do a few episodes. To think, that I would be getting ready to start filming the third season," he said before a recent concert.
"No, I wouldn't have ever thought it would have come this far."
Doc—which airs Sundays at 7 p.m. CDT on PAX —normally is the network's top-rated show.
It's a feel-good show about a folksy Montanan thrust into a bustling Manhattan hospital, dealing with his young ward Raul (Tyler Garcia Posey), tolerating his cranky superior (Ron Lea) and taking time with patients no HMO would allow.
"When the pilot script for Doc ended up on the coffee table, I said, 'Yeah. Now this is a show that could maybe be a little bit of Mayberry, a little bit of Touched
By An Angel, a little bit of ER. A really well-rounded show."
"When I read Doc,it was like now here's my chance to give back to God for all the many blessings that he's given me."
Not that it comes easy for the 41-year-old Cyrus, who lives on a 500-acre Tennessee farm with his wife and six kids.
"I study really, really hard," said the singer.
"It is a full-time job for me to stay on top of all my lines, to be prepared, because my worst nightmare is they're going to have that camera in my face and me surrounded with people staring at me and me not knowing what to say."
Cyrus says Doc provides an inspiration for his songs.
"Stand Still" from his upcoming eighth album, "Time Flies," is the new theme for the show.
He's also working on scripts for the show. During an interview on his tour bus, he shows the sketch of an upcoming episode written in pencil on a yellow legal
pad.
"I'd like to make the show, at least for the episodes that I write, maybe with a little more grit in them. I'd like to find out about Clint's past. You know, his dad died when he was 12, his mom died a little later. I think Clint had a little dark period in his life that I'd like to expose a little more."
His first co-writing venture comes in the Oct. 13 episode, "Nobody," about a homeless teenage mother.
"I really enjoy writing and being creative, but as far as stepping on the set and actually making the show, it's just hard work. Ain't nothin' fun about it."
The long-distance relationship between the set in Toronto and his family in Tennessee also is a strain.
"One of the harder episodes that we did was the one about 'Busy Man,' and I'm going, 'Wow. I'm sittin' here doing exactly what this show's about. I'm a slave to my work."

Coach changing Husker lineup after two big losses
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — Nebraska coach Frank Solich is making some changes he hopes will turn around the slumping Cornhuskers.
One change may very well be at quarterback, but Solich said yesterday he would not announce until later this week whether Jamal Lord, Mike Stuntz or true freshman Curt Dukes would start.
Solich has not given any ringing endorsements to Lord since
benching him in the Cornhuskers' 36-14 loss at Iowa State, which combined with a 40-7 blowout at Penn State two weeks before has the Huskers in a tailspin.
Solich announced yesterday that at least four players will be getting their first start Saturday against Div. I-AA McNeese State. A new quarterback would make it five.
live:
"If a player has played extremely well in the past and maybe isn't quite on top of his game right now, you make a
change," Solich said. "If a player is playing at a level as a backup player that is better than the player that is starting for you, then you make a change."
Solich is being extra quiet this week despite having an I-AA team coming to town. Already embarrassed by being knocked out of the polls for the first time since 1981, the Huskers' (3-2) can't afford anything close to an upset on Saturday.
"There's really not a good way to compare Jammal and I without putting one or the other of us down," Stuntz said. "I'd rather not do that because I think we're both very good football players."
Solich said all three quarterbacks knew what was going on, and the tentative starter had been

Even with the struggles and breakdowns Kansas defense has experienced in the first five games of the season. Mangino said he saw several individuals who stood out on defense, including senior linebacker Greg Cole. Cole leads the team with 47 tackles.
Football CONTINUED FROM 1B
Big 12 defense statistics place Cole as the sixth leading tackler, with the second most tackles for loss in the conference.
KU
Memorial
Unions
Cole said one key to his improvement was his relationship with linebacker coach Dave Doeren.
"Every game, I ask Coach Doeren what I need to work on
better," Cole said. "He tells me, and I just apply it the whole week in practice and prepare for it. In the games, it just translates over."
The 'cut loose' mentality Mangino wants his defense to display in practice and in games has Cole believing that he and his fellow defenders can continue to improve and eliminate the number of breakdowns in games.
KU 30 KU HEAGGANG 27
"Coach has told us to put it in your mind that you want to make the play," Cole said. "That's the goal for all 11 guys. If everybody is doing their job and they're trying to make the play, all of us will swarm the football and we should be a good defensive team."
Despite limiting Tulsa's offense to 18 points through three quarters last Saturday, Kansas is ranked last in total defense in the Big 12 Conference. Coach Mark Mangino said yesterday he wanted defenders to stop thinking so much and simply go after the opposing offense with abandon.

Wood CONTINUED FROM 1B
Smith has been simply incredible. She has 23 points (10 goals, three assists) in just 10 games this year. Only seven women in Division I have scored more points than her. She's gathered several awards, with many, many more likely to come in the next four years.
Score a point for Francis and the KU coaching staff. For as talented as Smith has proved to be, she really wasn't all that heavily recruited. A couple Big 12 coaches and the fans are now wondering why.
Could it be her size? She's 5-foot-2, the shortest girl on the Jayhawks and usually the shortest player on the field.
If anything, her height is an advantage. Her short, powerful legs allow her to run low to the ground, weaving in and out of defenders whom she has made look bad so many times.
Could it be her location?
Smith hails from Minnesota, a state that loves, well, ice hockey (Smith earned four varsity letters), ice fishing (no word on if Smith enjoys that) and a lot of other snow-related activities. Its weather is not exactly paradise for a soccer player.
So Francis, time and time again, goes after Minnesota's diamonds in the rough. Brianna Valento came to KU in 1999. Rachel Gilfillan, another forward with a knack for scoring, joined the Jafawkins last season.
And now, Caroline Smith is here. She scored three goals and assisted on another one last weekend, leading KU to a 5-1 blowout over Colorado and a 1-1 tie against No. 18 Nebraska.
Smith may well be the best freshman Kansas fans will see this year. She's a joy to watch. She's already setting records. She's been unstoppable.
And she's just beginning.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
In game one after a Kansas timeout, tied 14-14, the Jayhawks scored seven of the next ten points to gain a 22-17 advantage. They never looked back, winning game one 30-22. Lima tallied seven kills, while the team limited the Kangaroos to a .083 team hitting percentage.
had 10 kills. Sophomore outside hitter Lindsey Morris also had 10 kills, her season high.
"I just knew that I had to go in there and spark something and find some energy on the court," Morris said.
In the next game, UMKC took the lead for the first time, 9-8. With Kansas leading 13-11, the Kangaroos marked seven of the next eight points to lead the Jayhawks 18-14. After tying the game twice, Kansas regained the lead 27-26. Kansas sealed game two, 30-27, scoring three of the final four points.
Beachard said. "But I also want that to be a trait of a team that can come back when trailing in the match."
"After the Texas Tech match, I don't want that to be a habit."
"They've continued to do that. I sensed the team was in a bit of trouble, but I don't think the team sensed they were in trouble and they finished game two."
Game three was tight. Neither team extended its lead over three points. Kansas exceeded that, leading 25-21, before a UMKC timeout. But the timeout did not stop Kansas as it sealed game three and the match 30-25. Lima and Morris had seven kills each in that game.
The Jayhawks will resume their conference season at 7 p.m. on Saturday, traveling to Austin, Tex., to take on Texas.
Junior Abbie Jacobson pulled her hamstring in game two. She was unable to play in game three and her status for the Texas match is uncertain.

Meteorologist on cloud nine
Lindsev Gold/Kansan
Ross Jensen, Ellsworth junior, started at Channel 6 News as an intern reporting the morning news in July 2001. He was made chief meteorologist in May and receives two hours of KU credit plus a full time pay-check.

Nothing gets Ross Janssen more excited than a severe thunderstorm. Janssen, a meteorologist has to get excited. It's part of his job.
The twenty-one-year-old Ellsworth, Kan. junior forecasts the weather at 6 p.m. and 10 p.m., Monday through Friday for Channel 6 News.
"How the storms behave is interesting," Janssen said. "The weather always seems to change. It's so much fun to watch and see what happens."
Janssen said he spent about an hour every day forecasting the weather.
At 2 p.m. he sits down and logs on to the National Weather Service Web site and downloads its weather charts, which say what is happening in the atmosphere.
Once he assesses the current weather situation, he compares the charts with computer models on the National Center for Environmental Prediction site.
"I compare the charts to see which model is doing the best job predicting the weather," Janssen said. "Once I figure that out, I use that model to develop my forecast."
Cody Howard, news director for Channel 6 News, said Janssen had a strong work ethic. He said when the chief meteorologist left in May, Janssen worked extra hours until they hired another meteorologist. For two weeks, Janssen arrived at the station at 4 a.m. and worked until 12
p. m. He also worked from 2 p.m. to 10 p.m.
"He was our May employee of the month," Howard said. "Most people would not have worked as much as him. But he did it and never complained. He had a smile on his face the whole time."
Janssen first fell in love with weather in seventh grade. He said he used to make sure he watched a weather broadcast every day.
In high school, Janssen turned his dream into reality. He started out as a trained storm spotter for the National Weather Service. He interned at KWCH TV 12 in Wichita, a CBS affiliated station and he also helped install a weather station in his high school.
His mother, Roxie Janssen, said her son had always been fascinated with clouds.
"He eats, breathes and lives weather," Roxie Janssen said. "This is something that he truly loves. I don't think he'll ever get tired of it."
Janssen said it drove him crazy not knowing what tomorrow's weather would be.
"I can't see how anyone can go throughout the day not knowing what the weather is going to do," Janssen said. "To me, it doesn't seem right."
Janssen said he hoped to someday go back to KWCH TV 12 or at least stay somewhere in the Midwest.
"The weather here is perfect for a meteorologist," Janssen said.

ECM offers students housing,fellowship

Community dedication can lead to inexpensive living at one of the closest locations to campus.
In the basement of the Ecumenical Christian Ministries building, six University of Kansas students found a place to live and radical fellowship, what the ECM calls "Koinonia."
The basic requirement for residents is to participate in ministry activities at ECM, 1204 Oread Ave., at least three hours a week. Sarah Trowbridge-Alford, Lawrence senior and Koinonia resident, said ECM presented great opportunities for residents.
"Meeting new people is so easy," she said.
Trowbridge-Alford said she enjoyed
participating in ECM events such as Veggie Lunch, which ECM puts on at 11:30 a.m. every Thursday.
Residents are also required to meet two hours every week to have dinner together.
Thad Holcombe, campus pastor for ECM, said the different groups in Koinonia each year became so close that it was difficult to understand some conversations. He said sometimes residents began talking in code.
"Each community develops its own personality." Holcombe said.
This year presented a unique situation for Koinonia. Five of the previous residents moved out, an unusually high number according to Holcombe.
"It's a pretty radical shift when you have five new people," he said.
I'll tell you the story. It starts with a boy sitting on a bed, reading a book. The bed is made up of white sheets and pillows. On the left side of the bed, there is a dresser with several drawers. Inside the dresser, there are cups, a bowl, some books, and other miscellaneous items. The boy sits comfortably on the bed, reading a book. The room is dimly lit, with only a few lights visible.

nity have to be interviewed by previous residents.
Students pay between $255 and $281 per month for rent at ECM.
Isa Kretschmer, Lawrence senior, is the only returning resident this year. He began his third year in Koinonia this fall.
He said the group changed significantly each year regardless of the number of returning residents.
"It's a dynamic community that continues to change." Kretschmer said.

Tomorrow final day for credit option
By Molly Gise
mgise@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
To keep that B from lowering her grade point average, she decided to take the class credit/no credit.
Getting a B in Spanish was a devastating possibility to Ann Foltz when she was a freshman.
"Back then, I thought getting a B was really horrible," said Foltz, Abilene senior. "It really made that class easier for me."
Tomorrow is the last day of this semester that students can choose the credit/no credit option for a class.
According to university policy, students can take only one credit/no credit class each semester, and they cannot take classes in their major as credit/no credit.
Students who choose this option will receive "credit" or "no credit" on their transcripts, instead of a letter grade.
Students often mistakenly call this designation "pass/fail," said Pam Houston, director of undergraduate services in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.
"We usually correct them." Houston said. "A student can actually pass a class they got a D in and not get credit for it."
To get a credit for a class with this option, a student must earn at least a C in the class. Houston said.
Most students, like Foltz, take a class for credit/no credit to keep less-than- stellar grades from damaging their GPAs, Houston said.
Students must go the dean's office to fill out the credit/no credit form, Houston said. The three copies are distributed to the school, the registrar's office and the student.
Instructors are not notified if any of their students are taking a class for credit/no credit. This policy ensures that instructors treat students fairly, Houston said.
"You don't want to single students out in the course," Houston said. "It just makes for fairer grading and less of a hassle for the instructor."
John Nowak/Kansan
Instructors assign grades to all of their students. A grade is changed to credit or no credit by the registrar's office after it receives the grades from the instructors.
If a student is currently taking a class for credit/no credit, tomorrow is also the last day for them to change back to taking it for a grade.

The property at 205 W. Eighth St. stands vacant. It previously housed Lawrence's only abortion clinic.
Clinic closes doors after five years of business
By Lindsey Hodel
lhodel@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The clinic, 205 W. Eighth St., went out of business and vacated its building Sept. 11. Kristin Neuhaus, physician, operated the clinic since 1997. Her clinic offered surgical abortions, RU-486, the "morning after pill," and counseling about non-surgical abortions.
Lawrence's only abortion clinic recently closed, narrowing the options of women women facing unplanned pregnancies.
The clinic closed because of financial problems and personal issues in Neuhaus' family, said Candy Kruger, media representative for the Religious
Coalition for Reproductive Rights in Wichita, a group of religious organizations that supports abortion rights. She said pressure from anti-abortion groups did not cause the clinic to close.
Kruger said women with unplanned pregnancies would definitely be affected by the closing of the clinic.
"The options that still exist for women are getting very narrow," she said. "Whenever a clinic closes, it limits men and women's access to their reproductive rights."
378 women received abortions in Douglas County in 2000, according to the Kansas Department of Health and Environment's summary of vital statistics. In Kansas, doctors performed 12,523 abortions in 2000,6,718 of which
involved women younger than 24.
Some students are not happy about the clinic's closing. Beth Peterson, Kansas City, Mo. senior and member of Womyn's Empowerment Action Coalition, said the closing hindered a woman's right to choose.
"Dr. Neuhaus provided a valuable and necessary service in our community,"she said. "She was a strong advocate of women's rights and she fought to stay open."
Peterson also said the closing of the clinic would definitely limit younger women's access to reproductive health care.
"Not all women have access to transportation, especially if they are younger and have issues with their parents," she
said. "Not everybody can rely on somebody to get them to Johnson County or Wichita."
But Luke Scott, KU graduate and president of United Christian Fellowship, said he thought the closing of the clinic was a positive thing for the community.
"I believe abortion is murder and I don't think it should even be legal, except in rare cases where the life of the mother is at risk," he said.
The closing of the clinic would not affect women's choices, Scott said.
"If somebody really wanted to get an abortion, they would find someplace farther," he said.

Catholic church officials address sex scandal
TOPEKA — Archbishop James P. Keleher of the Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas said a meeting he held Tuesday with about 200 people showed that the Catholic church was willing to address the sexual abuse scandal.
The media was asked not to attend the meeting at Holy Name Catholic Church. Keleher and other participants said the meeting occasionally became heated but was mostly positive.
Keleher and the Rev. Charles McGlinn, vicar general for the archdiocese, spent about 80 minutes answering questions and discussing the church's policy on sexual abuse.
After the meeting, Keleher pronounced it a success and said it showed the church was being "transparent" in dealing with a most difficult matter.
Officials predict no rise on Missouri River in 2003
WASHINGTON — There will be no so-called spring rise on the Missouri River in 2003, according to high-ranking Army Corps of Engineers and Fish and Wildlife Service officials.
The corps was poised in June to reveal how it intended to alter the flow of the nation's longest waterway. Instead, the agency yanked the plan and entered open-ended talks with the wildlife service.
The wildlife service has ordered the corps to return the river to a more seasonal surge and ebb by 2003, or risk violating the Endangered Species Act. The service says entire species of birds and fish may disappear without changes that include higher water releases in the spring and low summer flows.
In a letter obtained Tuesday by The Associated Press, the chief of the corps' northwest region asked the wildlife service for a reprieve.
Committee discusses ending 'session creep'
TOPEKA—If Kansans didn't like having their Legislature in session for a record 107 days this year, many law-makers didn't either.
The Legislative Budget Committee on Tuesday discussed how legislators could shorten the session and prevent what one member, Rep. Kenny Wilk, R-Lansing, called "session creep."
The committee didn't agree on any proposals, but its chairman, Sen. Steve Morris, R-Hugoton, said the discussion would continue, and members could make a recommendation before the Legislature convenes Jan. 13.
Wilk said that in talking to his colleagues, "I'm hearing consistently that people are frustrated that we are having session creep."
Tradition dictates that sessions should last 90 calendar days, starting in January.
Rural nursing homes ailing from funding cuts
WICHITA—Medicare cuts are hitting rural nursing homes hard, and could result in staff cuts, reduced services and perhaps even closures, their advocates say.
Among those affected by the 10 percent drop in Medicare funding is the Memorial Home in Moundridge, about 40 miles from Wichita.
With 115 workers, it is one of the Kansas town's biggest employers. When its budget goes down, the whole town notices the effects.
"Very definitely," said Linda Smith, accounts manager for the nonprofit nursing home. Memorial Home "is a big part of this area."
Memorial Home serves about 90 senior citizens. The funding drop is the result of the Medicare payment system established in 1997.

The Powerhouse building's arches are part of plans for a new Hall Center for the Humanities. The Hall Family Foundation donated $3.2 million for the renovations and construction.
Hall Center to incorporate Powerhouse in new building
By Kyle Ramsey
kramsey@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The Hall Center for the Humanities will make a new home using the University of Kansas' oldest surviving structure, officials announced yesterday.
Stone arches that compose the south side of the Powerhouse, located east of the Dole Human Development Center, will become part of the Hall Center's new 11,000-square-footbuilding. The Powerhouse's south side is the original portion of the 115-year-old structure, which was nearly rebuilt after being struck by lightning in 1898. Other portions of the structure will be preserved if deemed structurally sound by architects.
A $3.26 million donation from the Hall Family Foundation, part
of a larger $42 million pledge, and $500,000 from other private sources will cover renovation and construction costs, said John Scarffe, director of communications for the Kansas University Endowment Association. KU will pay for landscaping and furnishings.
The new building will house a 120-seat conference room, a seminar room, a kitchen and offices for Hall Center staff and fellows.
The building will sit on the Powerhouse building's site, which is about 300 feet west of the current 6.800-square-foot location.1540 Sunflower Road.
awfully accessible," he said. "We will be doing our own programs in our own building."
The building will do more than expand the center's space. Victor Bailey, director of the Hall Center, said the move would make the center more visible and allow its services to expand.
The Hall Center works primarily to establish interdisciplinary training programs between faculty at KU and other schools. Visiting scholars will have more space to work in the new center, which Bailey hopes will lure more scholars to KU.
The building we are in is not
Bailey said the new building would provide a facility that was rare for similar programs at other universities.
"You're usually being squeezed into a building as a hand-me-down." Bailey said. "This is being tailor-made."
A groundbreaking date for construction has not been set, but Bailey expects construction to be completed sometime in 2004.
Campus recycling on the rise; new, convenient bins helped
By Nathan Dayani

With more convenient places for students to recycle, the KU department of environmental stewardship is waging a battle against apathy.
Victoria Silva, director of the KU department of environmental stewardship, said recycling collections increased at the residence halls by 14.4 percent from 340 tons to 389 tons this semester. Silva said this increase was mostly due to the expansion of recycling facilities at the beginning of the fall semester in the lobbies of every floor at residence halls.
E. J. Gonzales, Topeka freshman, said that better access to the new facilities encouraged him to recycle.
"It's convenient because it's 20 steps away from my door," he said. "Otherwise, I feel like I'm going out of my way."
Campus recycling facilities have bins for plastic bottles, aluminum cans, newspapers and many different types of paper.
In addition to KU's recycling success, recycling collections also increased 13.6 percent from 3,056 tons to 3,471 tons at Wal-Mart's Lawrence recycling center.
But, some students are still not recycling, despite campus and city recycling options.
Bob Weinstein, Leawood senior and recycling technician for the environmental stewardship department, said many students were apathetic about recycling and its benefits.
"We're thankful for those who do recycle on campus," Weinstein said, "But it does seem like there are a lot who aren't interested in recycling and don't care about it."
Silva said whether a student recycles can depend on where they are from.
There are a lot of communities
in the state of Kansas where recycling is not very strong," she said. "Recycling in Kansas is not mandatory like other states, such as Minnesota and Oregon."
Stacey Reding, chairwoman of the Student Environmental Advisory Board, said many students who didn't recycle had not made recycling a daily habit.
"It's not so much that they don't care," said Reding, Alma senior. "It's just that they don't think about it."
However, Reding said she was hopeful that the residence halls' new recycling facilities would help students get into a recycling routine.
Although he has easy access to the new facilities, Dennis Mersmann said he didn't recycle at his residence hall.
"I don't think about recycling much in my life," said Mersmann, Lawrence freshman. "I guess it's just laziness."

Student Senate rejects Iraq bill
In a 21-4 vote, the University Affairs committee voted down a resolution that would have collectively opposed any unjust military action against Iraq last night.
"The resolution was ill-informed," Andy Knopp, business senator and Manhattan junior, said.

Knopp said he was against unjustified military action, but the resolution didn't present
Had the bill resolution passed, it would have been sent to President George Bush. Secretary of State Colin Powell and U.S. and state legislators.
Mike Appleby, co-sponsor of the bill, said the resolution's purpose was to show the KU student body was not in favor of unjustified action against the Iraqi people.
"Theoretically, we represent 26,000 voters," Appleby said. "Any politician is going to drool at that."
Galen Turner, non-traditional senator and Lawrence senior, said committee members who voted against the resolution were uninformed.
"The committee embarrassed itself tonight," he said.

KANSAN EDITORIAL BOARD
University needs new system to track sweatshop labor
Products associated with sweatshops have come under extreme criticism through the years. Association with sweatshops can greatly damage the image of a large corporation.
Even the University of Kansas has its own vested interest in these issues because 440 companies are licensed to use the Jayhawk with their product.
The group is asking the University to join Workers Rights Consortium (WRC), in addition to its current affiliation with the Fair Labor Association (FLA). Both companies track overseas factories and keep records of violations.
The global fair labor issues group at the University of Kansas seeks to ensure that KU is not licensing its name to companies who use sweatshop labor.
The group expressed concerns to the KU Athletic Corporation in April, said Laura Adams, Topeka sophomore. She said FLA failed to provide detailed reports of companies that are in non-compliance with codes.
If the University is to be protected from a possible association with sweatshop labor, it must use a service that will make reports readily available for consumers.
During the last few months the FLA has made positive changes to its regulations, adding access to company names and the factory locations on its Web site.
However, Adams said these changes still fail to offer enough information for
students to make a socially-responsible choice.
The global fair labor issues group wants updated reports detailing companies in non-compliance. It also wants reports of companies working to correct sweatshop abuses. WRC does all of these things and, unlike the FLA, it is independent of company control.
Paul Vander Tuig, KU Licensing Administrator said KUAC was going to address the group's concerns in November.
Vander Tuigs said the University would be open to joining other labor associations. However, he said he was apprehensive about the practicality of paying royalties to two groups when the University is facing a budget crisis.
Adams points out that of the universities affiliated with FLA, 50 are also affiliated with WRC.
Students who are interested in these issues can help the global fair labor group when they present information to various organizations.
An option for KU is to switch services from FLA to WRC. Simply switching associations would eliminate the University's budget concerns.
Their overall goal for this year is to pass a resolution in Student Senate demanding full disclosure of reports on a continual basis.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Student opposition to blood drive funding not "petty" issue
I cannot tell you how disappointed I was when I learned that Student Senate decided to pass legislation to fund the blood drive at KU. While I fully support the aims and goals of the blood drive, I feel that providing money to a group that actively supports discrimination against any group of students goes against one of the basic guidelines of Senate.
But, perhaps even more disturbing than the actually funding was the attitude of some members of Senate, including the Student Body President Jonathan Ng.
In two different occasions he remarked that debate over this subject was "petty" and essentially irrelevant. This is a stance that I could not agree less with. From my years working with student governance, I can tell you that it is the role of the student government is to make sure that the rights of all students are equally protected. Debating such an important issue as discrimination is neither petty nor irrelevant. Even if the student body felt the way Mr. Ng does, it is up to the student leaders of KU to make sure that no student is marginalized, no matter what the cost.

Rape story still not justified
This is in response to Laurel Burchfield's Sept. 25 column, "Kansan ran story about rape in interest of student safety".
Did you ever think that you could preserve student safety by running regular front page articles encouraging good personal safety habits instead of producing a big rape layout whenever there happens to be an incident? Despite your stated concern with individuals' safety, I saw very few personal safety articles on the front page in my 10 years at the University of Kansas and the KU Medical Center.
I did see an article or two about safety in the back, right before the sports section, as each fall semester began. I've even seen one or two that I can recall about general rape
statistics and how they compare among the Big 12 universities.
But I have never seen anything of the magnitude of the sensationalist story that Ms. Burchfield tried to justify, which proves that the big story on the rape and your interest in student safety are NOT equal priorities.

Junoon promoters worked hard
Rather than praise the Pakistani Cultural Club (PCC) for taking the initiative to organize a peace symposium and benefit concert to aid children's charities, you mostly just reprimand them for lacking media savvy.
I just read your Sept. 27 opinion piece "Junoon deserves student attention more publicity" and felt compelled to express my disappointment.
I wrote and issued a follow-up press release from the Office of University Relations here on campus that was distributed on Wednesday of last week. Granted, this was late in the scheme of things, but it proved to be ample time for the Kansas City Star to run a story.
Instead, the PCC students put together a press release and hoped that media coverage would make up for their lack of commercial advertising.
I do not know the details of the club's budget but I can assure you that print and television advertising rates can add up quickly.
If the Kansan is so concerned with the lack of publicity, why didn't it also run a news article on the symposium and concert?
I found it disheartening to see you criticize a group of students that has such good intentions.
You're right, Junoon does deserve better.
But then again, so does the PCC for creating these events in the first place.

SACK'S VIEW
Drinking-column writers need shot of reality, responsibility
PERSPECTIVES
The last week has brought two sides, or rather, two extremes of the college drinking issue to the
COMMENTARY
opinion page of The University Daily Kansan.
Last Thursday Meagan Kelleher told students that she does not drink. Kelleher gave the impression that she fights the hard fight of staying sober every weekend while simultaneously taking the shotgun approach to her audience; peppering all drinkers as idiotic scofflaws.
Kelleher's choice to abstain from alcohol is acceptable and admirable to some degree, but not her attitude towards the opposite practice. Being proud of not drinking is like being proud to have ten fingers; nobody ever did anything to earn that. Furthermore, categorizing people who act differently than her as "idiots" is narrow-minded.
Borja derides Kelleher from the perspective that he is a responsible drinker and should not fall under the realm of her criticism. Soon after implying that he drinks responsibly, he declares himself as president of the "Yes, in fact, I don't really remember much about last night, but I am sure it was a damn good time" club.
Even more abborrent was the opposite viewpoint taken by Eric Borja on Monday.

People who drink to the point of losing memory are not responsible
Borja continues to assert his glee as he learned Playboy ranked KU as the number nine party school in the nation, and appeals for students to take up more irresponsible drinking to boost the ranking up the remaining eight spots.
drinkers. In fact, they are the drinken who lie at the crux of the nationwide college drinking problem.
The kind of behavior that it will take to get KU to number one on Playboy's dubious list results in the estimated 1,400 deaths, 70,000 date rapes and sexual assaults and a half-million injuries sustained from irresponsible drinking that took place on college campuses nationwide, as reported by CBS News last year.
Maybe if he spent more time focusing on doing his part in improving KU's education ranking and not its party ranking, his education would serve as a better investment for him than his $100 fake ID, which he calls his "smartest investment yet."
Perhaps the problems with the slip.

Dr. Drew Pinsky, specialist in addiction medicine and host of syndicated radio show Loveline, claims that the definition of alcoholism lies in the practice of choosing to drink despite consequence.
If Borja drinks despite the consequence of a failing grade, then he must certainly fit this definition.
If other college students drink as heavily and irresponsibly as Borja encourages (despite the numerous consequences), then they must fit the definition as well.
Whether one chooses to drink or not relies on a personal preference of the individual.
Nobody is particularly impressed with either decision since it is one everyone has to make.
To shower heavy-handed criticism on those who make the choice to drink serves no effect. Alternately, to encourage the practice of drinking to the point of sickness and in light of the widespread consequences is pathetic, idiotic and lacking in any serious thought.

Pamper your pet at 'Home'
By Erin Beatty
ebeatty@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
For the devoted pet owner, a simple kennel doesn't compare to a true treat — a pet resort. With a new business in town, pampered pets get daycare.
At Home Sweet Home Pet Resort, 2140 Haskell Ave., dogs enjoy supervised care, interaction with other dogs, TV featuring the Animal Planet channel, an 8100-square-foot outdoor play area and wading pools.
Home Sweet Home owner Tiffany Saturday, a former firefighter and paramedic, opened the resort in July. She said she opened the resort because of her love for animals.
"Here we don't treat the animals like people's pets, we treat them like people's children," Saturday said.
Heidi Hillman, Gardner grad
uate student, takes her 2-year-old Australian Shepherd/Labrador mix, Max, to doggie careat the resort three times a week.
"Home Sweet Home is unsurpassable by the other pet daycares we've tried," Hillman said, "We get much more for our money here."
She liked that the dogs were allowed to run free all day and interact with other dogs, instead of being cooped up in a pen.
Saturday said the daycare was a good idea for any pet owner who worked or took classes all day, so they could come home to a relaxed dog.
"Our job is to wear the dogs out for the owners so they're calm at home for their owners," she said.
Hillman said doggie daycare was beneficial for Max because it let him socialize and get exercise at the same time. The daycare helped curb Max's negative behavior such as chewing, barking and jumping
while at home, she said.
Lily Gruber, Home Sweet Home employee, said she had observed just one major tiff between dogs.
"For the most part, we have no problems though," Gruber said. "The dogs really love it here."
Carrie Stockton, veterinary technician at Wakarusa Veterinary Hospital, said daycare was healthy for dogs.

Wind energy discussed
Conference explores Kansas potential for wind power
By Lindsey Hodel
Ihodei@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The push toward renewable energy may be getting a second wind in Kansas.
About 250 wind developers, wind energy experts, state representatives and environmentalists gathered Tuesday and yesterday at the Holiday Inn Holidome, 200 McDonald Dr., for the 2002 Wind Energy Conference.
The conference, organized by Lawrence wind energy consulting firm Pinnacle Technology, included sessions on both small and large scale wind energy development.
Wind developers from across the state presented the newest developments in wind energy in Kansas, including the completion of a 170-turbine wind farm in Gray County near Montezuma, Kan. last year.
More development in wind energy would benefit Kansans, said Rep. Tom Sloan (R-Lawrence,) who is the vice-chairman of the Kansas House Utilities Committee. "Wind energy represents energy security in Kansas," Sloan said. "We can use the
energy we have produced ourselves instead of getting it from somewhere else."
Sloan said there had been development in wind energy in the Lawrence area.
"In this area, we are more likely to see small scale wind turbines to meet people's energy needs," he said. "People who live in the western parts of the county have started designing homes using wind power."
Paul White, midwest project director with enXco, is a wind developer interested in building more wind farms in Kansas. White said the development of more wind farms would mean more jobs for Kansans.
"This is one of the leading reasons why wind energy is good for Kansas," he said.
White said some people opposed wind energy because they thought the turbines destroyed the aesthetic value of an area.
"If people don't like the way wind farms look, they won't happen," he said.
University of Kansas students also attended the conference. Rich Mulhern, architecture senator for Student Senate, said he believed wind energy was the best option for energy in Kansas.
"The conference was important because Kansas ranks number one as the state with the most potential for wind energy," he
"We could have a small turbine installed, but the project would need a professor to champion it and endorsement from people in Strong Hall. Right now, it doesn't look likely."
Scott White Assistant scientist at the Kansas Geological Survey
said.
Mulhern, Colorado Springs senior, said the best part about the conference was the large variety of people who came. Everybody from state legislators to Kansas farmers attended, he said.
"I really liked hearing Kansas farmers making good points and making the speakers answer questions on the spot," he said.
Scott White, assistant scientist at the Kansas Geological Survey, said wind energy was still only a possibility for KU's campus.
"We could have a small turbine installed, but the project would need a professor to champion it and endorsement from people in Strong Hall." he said. "Right now, it doesn't look likely."

Clinic
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN = 7A
Kruger said women with unplanned pregnancies could seek abortions in other parts of the state. Two clinics in the Kansas City area and in Wichita offer surgical abortions.
Kruger said the Religious Coalition was also opening a 24-hour counseling center in Wichita Oct. 21. Nurses will be available to help women make
decisions regarding their reproductive choices.
"This will be the first center to offer counseling for all options, whether the woman decides abortion, adoption or to keep her baby," Kruger said.
Alternatives to surgical abortion also remain in Lawrence. Planned Parenthood's clinic, 27th and Iowa streets, offers the emergency contraception pill, a non-abortive pill that can be taken up to 72 hours after a suspected conception. The pill available only by prescription, has an 89 percent success rate, said Kruger.
The pill stops ovulation, fertilization or implantation, preventing a successful pregnancy. This method does not affect previous pregnancies and will not cause an abortion, according to Planned Parenthood Federation of America's Web site.
But Lawrence's Planned Parenthood clinic does not offer the
RU-486 pill, an abortive pill that Neuhaus' clinic did offer. RU-486 can be taken within the first seven weeks of pregnancy.
The pill must be administered by a physician, and Lawrence's Planned Parenthood clinic only staffs registered nurses, said Becki Brenner, vice president for clinical services at Planned Parenthood of Kansas and Mid-Missouri.

Shoe bomber to plead guilty to all charges
The Associated Press
BOSTON — Richard Reid, the man accused of trying to blow up a trans-Atlantic flight with explosives hidden in his shoes, plans to plead guilty to attempted murder and all other charges against him, his lawyer said yesterday.
Attorney Owen Walker said Reid wanted to avoid the publicity of a trial and the negative impact it would have on his family.
Reid faces up to life in prison if convicted of the most serious charges.
His attorney said Reid "has no disagreement with the facts" asserted in the charges.
In his court filing, Reid said he would admit to all eight counts against him, but asked the court to remove language from two of the charges alleging he received training from al-Qaida. Reid earlier lost a bid to remove the same
language from the indictment against him.
The motion does not say a guilty plea is contingent upon the al-Qaida references being stricken. Walker declined comment on the issue.
In Washington, Attorney General John Ashcroft said Reid acted on his own and has no plea agreement with the government.
Federal prosecutors also filed a
pleading that opposed removal of any language from the indictment.
Trial is set for Nov. 4.
Reid, a 28-year-old British citizen, is accused of attempting to kill the 197 passengers and crew members aboard American Airlines Flight 63 from Paris to Miami on Dec. 22.
He was overpowered by flight attendants and passengers, and the flight was diverted to Boston.

With very little time left in the first half, Baylor tried scrapping something together, but once

again failed. Kansas got the ball back with 12 seconds left in the half. On the final play before the gun went off, Whittemore found a wide open Derick Mills down the right sideline for a 38-yard touchdown.
"Jason, where's your defense?" Greene said. "You do know that your players aren't supposed to leave the field until the clock reads all zero's, right?"

Kansas took the ball to start the second half of a royal beating. The Jayhawks quickly capped an eight-play, 65-yard drive with a three-yard touchdown toss to Adrian Jones.

"Geez team." Hwang said. "You think you all can stop running around the field like chickens with your heads cut off and play some sort of defense?"
Kansas 35. Baylor0
It did not take the Jayhawks long to get the ball back, because Jake Letourneau picked off a Cicero pass over the middle on second down. Kansas drove 49 yards to drain the remaining time off the third quarter clock. The drive was capped by a three-yard touchdown pass to Byron Gasaway. With the third quarter coming to an end, Mark Mangino decided to give some backups a little work. Whittemore and Duncan both took a seat to make way for Jonas Weatherbie and Clark Green.
"So Jason, why don't you head into the basement?" Greene said. "I think there's some rope down there, that way you can end the misery in a quick and painless manner."
Kansas 42. Bavlor 0
4th Quarter
Baylor's struggles continued. Cicero again was picked off by Letourneau, who continued to have the game of his life. Kansas hurried down the field on the wide shoulders of Green, who would run for 59 yards finish off the drive with a seven-yard touchdown plunge.
Baylor made one last effort at the end zone, but fell short when Letourneau broke up a bomb on the final play of regulation, giving Kansas their first shutout victory in two years.
"You know that the point of offense is moving the ball forward." Hwang said. "I thought you are a smart school. Tell you what. Why don't you all calculate how many light years away you are from being a junior college football team, you morons."

In a move designed to help the players focus on holding on to the ball — the Bears have committed 14 turnovers in their first four games — they dipped footballs into a bucket of water during during their bye-week practices last week.
Chiefs may start rookies Sunday
"You take every snap with the ball just freshly dipped out of the bucket," Steele said during Tuesday's weekly press conference. "We've done it in the past, but it was more along the lines of getting ready for a possible rain day. This time, we did it to put an emphasis on holding on to the football.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Kansas City's beleaguered defense might start two rookies Sunday against the New York Jets - one by choice, the other by necessity.
Coach Dick Vermeil said yesterday that rookie Scott Fujita might start for Lew Bush, who was listed as questionable with bruised ribs.
The 6-5,240-pound Fujita,a fifth-round pick out of California has been limited almost exclusively to special teams the first four games.
One other change on the defense will be up front, where rookie Ryan Sims, the sixth player taken overall in last spring's draft, will get his first start. The 315-pound Sims has been seeing more and more action every week after sitting out the entire training camp in a contract dispute.
"What Ryan's doing is getting tremendous push up the middle, just causing havoe," defensive end Eric Hicks said. "If he can continue to do that, we'll be successful."
som, who will still be in the defensive rotation.
Sims will replace Derrick Ran-
"I had to pay for dinner a lot, but other than that, not really much has been said," Sims said. "Other than that, these guys have been great. I really love these guys and I think they're finally starting to like me."
While taking his crash course on the complicated defensive scheme, Sims has not had to take the expected hazing from his teammates for staying out of camp.
Even without any personnel changes, the Jets would seem to have an offense that only the Kansas City defense could love.
Ranked 32nd and dead last in the NFL, the Chiefs defense will travel to the Meadowlands to meet a Jets offense listed at 29th.
The Chiefs (2-2) have been giving up more than 33 points a game, among the worst in the NFL. But the Jets (1-3) have scored only 13 points in losing their last three.
They even changed quarter-backs this week, switching from Vinny Testaverde to Chad Pennington, who'll be making his
"It was the worst game we played last year, in all due respect to (jets coach) Herman Edwards and his organization." Chiefs coach Dick Vermeil said. "They forced us to play our worst game."
Do the Chiefs have a Meadowlands jinx? Vermel wont even tolerate the suggestion.
first NFL start.
A year ago, the Chiefs limped back from New York a 27-7 loser to the Jets after one of their weakest efforts of a 6-10 season.
One sobering thought for the Chiefs might be their nearly unbroken record of futility in the Meadowlands. Since 1984, against both the Jets and New York Giants, the Chiefs are 1-8-1 in the Meadowlands.
Start immediately with great benefits & perks!
"It seems like every time we get a new quarterback, the guy has a career game," said Hicks. "So we'll try to hold that down. We're going to have to give Chad Pennington his respect."
"We've got guys on our roster that may not even be able to spell Meadowlands," Vermeil said. "They could care less."
"I don't think that's a factor at all." Vermell said.

KANSAS SOCCER Caroline Smith named player of the week
Freshman forward Caroline Smith has been named Big 12 Conference Soccer Player of the Week for the second time in three weeks.
Smith earned Co-Offensive Player of the Week honors with Oklahoma's Logan Womack. Smith and Womack joined Oklahoma's Lauren Maclver, who was Newcomer of the Week and Oklahoma State's Kat Doud, who garnered Defensive Player of the Week.
Smith scored seven points over the weekend with three goals and an assist as Kansas beat Colorado, 5-1, and tied Nebraska, 1-1.
Smith now leads the Big 12 with 10 goals on the season, setting the Kansas freshman record for most goals in a season and tying the single season mark. Smith's four-game winning goals on the season also set a new single-season mark for the Jayhawks. She has now scored or had an assist in six straight contests.
Smith was named Big 12 Newcomer of the week back on Sept. 15, when she scored a pair of goals in wins over Arkansas and Tulsa, including the game winning goal in both matches.
This is the third consecutive week that a Kansas player has earned Big 12 Player of the Week honors. In between Smith's Big

AUTO RACING Sterling Marlin to miss season with injury
POLL
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Sterling Marlin, who led the Winston Cup standings for 25 weeks, will miss the rest of the NASCAR season because of a broken vertebra in his neck.
Marlin was injured in a crash Sunday in Kansas, and the break in his vertebra was diagnosed yesterday in Charlotte, said team co-owner Felix Sabates.
Jamie McMurray, who was hired to drive a third car for Chip Ganassi Racing next season, will drive the No. 40 Dodge Intrepid for the rest of the season as well as complete the Busch series schedule for Brewco Motorsports, Sabates said.
Marlin took over the points lead after the second race of the season and held it until three weeks ago. He has slipped to fifth in the standings, 121 points behind new leader Jimmie Johnson.
Now he will miss the remaining seven races and will fall considerably further.
"Sterling obviously is very upset," Sabates said. "He felt like he had a legitimate chance at winning his first championship. Yes, the team had fallen off a little bit over the past few weeks,
no
but with the tightness of the points race, he had a good a shot as anyone."

CAN YOU HELP ME WITH MY SCIENCE HOMEWORK?
I'VE ALWAYS THOUGHT OF MYSELF AS A SCIENCE GEER.
I INVENTED THE NAME FOR THAT INDENTED AREA BELOW THE NOSE.
YOU CAME UP WITH THE WORD "PHILTRUM?"
NO,
"NATURE'S SNOT FUNNEL."
MAYBE MY TEACHER MADE A MISTAKE.
I HOME- SCHOOLED MYSELF, SO I HAVEN'T HAD TO RELY ON OTHERS.

The secret to your success this year is in the details. Take as much time as you need to make sure you've thought of everything before proceeding. This will inhibit your spontaneity somewhat, but you'll gain sophistication, and that's a good thing.
Today's Birthday (Oct. 3).
Aries (March 21-April 19) Today is a 7.
New difficulties will soon arise, so don't assume you know it all. Good planning will help, of course, but more study is required.
HOROSCOPES
Taurus (April 20-May 20) Today is a 7
Reaching an agreement leads to a closer bond, and that makes everything else seem easier. There are still complications and shortages, but together you'll find a way.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) Today is a 6.
You know those things you've been thinking that might be better left unsaid? The really critical stuff? Unless you want the same back at you, better stifle.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) Today is a 7.
Your natural talents are needed today to keep everybody on track. Without you, chaos might reign, so if they're not listening, shout.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Today is a 6.
As you go over your lists, you may note several little things that need immediate attention. A responsible review of those lists could save you money.
Virgo (Aug. 29-September 1)
You may have to call a halt to the proceedings. If somebody makes an erroneous assumption, don't let it stand. Object, or you'll wish you had.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) Today is a 7.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct 22) Today is a 7
Something you thought you had figured out could come unraveled. If it's not going to work, it's better to know sooner rather than later.
Scorpion (Oct. 24, 2017) Not all of the news is good, but it's better to know the truth. You're learning why it's best to play by the rules, especially where money is involved.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Today is a 7.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Today is a 6.
Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) July
Another dead end? Don't despair. This is valuable information. Besides, your curiosity is piqued, and your resolve deepened.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Today is a 6.
A person who owes you a favor can give you the information you've been seeking. Discuss the situation and find out what you need to know.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb.18) Today is a 7.
Postpone your big date until the weekend, and plan to travel then. Meanwhile, watch your money. Spend carefully and don't take risks.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Today is a 7.
"We Stand Behind Our Work, and WE CARE!"

A surprising revelation causes you to reassess the priorities you've just set. Don't be dismayed, and don't hesitate. The more you do it, the easier it gets.

COMMENTARY
Jayhawks, Bears share similar pains
Levi Chronister lchronister@kansan.com
Last week, the Kansas football team earned its second victory of the season with a 43-33 defeat of Tulsa.
Two weeks ago, the Baylor football team earned its second victory of the season with a 37-25 defeat of Tulsa.
The similarities between the Jayhawks and the Bears don't end there, but the Jayhawks come out on top in most comparisons.
The Bears defeated the Golden Hurricane at home, in front of 30,337 of those rabid Texas football fanatics. The Jayhawks had to go into unfamiliar territory for their victory, playing in Tulsa for the first time since 1992.
Both Baylor and Kansas finished 3-8 last year, although the Jayhawks picked up a Big 12 Conference victory in the double-overtime thriller against Texas Tech almost exactly a year ago Saturday.
Neither team has had a winning record since 1995, a year before the beginning of the Big 12. While Baylor was 7-4 and didn't make the post-season, Kansas went 10-2 and defeated UCLA in the Aloha Bowl.
Neither team has had a winning record in the Big 12. Baylor has finished in last place in the Big 12 South all six years, including a current 29-game losing streak. Kansas, the last Big 12 team Baylor defeated, finished in the conference cellar for the first time last season, finishing 1-7.
This will probably be the second straight finish in the Big 12 basement for the Jayhawks, but they should finish at least one conference victory this weekend. A victory Saturday would even Kansas's record against Baylor at 3-3 and be the Jayhawks' first victory in Waco in three attempts.
Although the Bears had a larger margin of victory than the Jayhawks against the Golden Hurricane, that game was a home contest in which Baylor never trailed. Kansas, on the other hand, fell behind 13-0 early in Saturday's game but came back with 28 unanswered points and took a 43-19 lead before allowing two late touchdowns.
Being at home and ranking higher in both total offense and total defense in the Big 12, Baylor looks like the favorite, but those ratings deserve closer scrutiny.
The Bears are eighth in total offense (376.2 yards per game) and sixth in total defense (340.8 yards per game), while the Jayhawks are last in both offense (311.6 yards per game) and defense (439.2 yards per game).
Both teams have benefited from playinga Div. I-AA school — Southwest Missouri State for Kansas and Samford for Baylor, but Kansas has played Iowa State, now 5-1 and ranked No. 15, while Baylor has played New Mexico (2-4) and California (3-2).
Even though the lahawks are ranked last in the conference, they come in off the victory against the Golden Hurricane in which quarterback Bill Whittemore gained a combined 395 yards rushing and passing. Kansas gained a total of 523 yards against Tulsa, 79 yards more than against Iowa State and UNLV combined.
Kansas did give up 452 yards to Tulsa, but 239 of them were after the game was already decided.
With Whittemore and the offense headed in the right direction and Kansas coach Mark Mangino wanting his players to be more reactionary and less cerebral, Saturday should be the 30th straight conference loss for Baylor, and Kansas can't claim that kind of ineptitude, no matter how many problems the team has.

Rolling into Waco, Texas, with a full head of steam, the Kansas Jayhawks — sporting a virtual record of 3-2 — looked for their fourth consecutive win. Coming off Reggie Duncan's six-touchdown performance in Tulsa last weekend, coach Ryan Greene came in on cloud nine.

Kansas hoops snags top-notch recruits
By Doyle Murphy
dmurphy@kansan.com
Kansan soortswriter
The University of Kansas basketball team received an oral commitment from its second high-profile recruit in two days yesterday.
Loyola High School (Los Angeles) shooting guard Omar Wilkes announced he would be the newest addition to the Jayhawks. Wilkes, 6-foot-3-inches, 172pounds, made the announcement in front of a group of about 70 classmates, teachers, coaches and members of the media at 4:30 p.m.yesterday at his high school. The press conference was broadcast live on radio in Lawrence.
Kansas beat the University of California-Los Angeles in the battle for Wilkes' services.
Wilkes joins his friend David Padgett from Reno (Nev.) High School on the Jayhawks' roster. Numerous Web sites, including Sportsillustrated.cnn.com and PrepWestHoops.com reported Padgett orally committed to coach Roy Williams last night by phone.
Padgett, a 6-foot-11-inch, 240-pound center, chose Kansas over the University of Arizona and the University of North Carolina.
The commitments by Wilkes and Padgett mean the Jayhawks have already assembled a nationally recognized recruiting class. Espn.com ranks Padgett as the fifth-best high school senior in the nation. Wilkes ranks 93rd, and Oklahoma shooting guard J.R. Gibbons, who committed this summer, is ranked 25th. Add in another
Oklahoma guard in Jeremy Case, and Kansas has already taken care of four of its five available scholarships before the first of two signing periods.
None of the four have signed a national letter of intent, which binds a player to a school. Nov. 13 is the first day athletes can sign a national letter of intent.
Both Padgett and Wilkes enjoyed extremely successful junior seasons last year.
Padgett averaged 23 points,14 rebounds and eight blocks per game. He also was a member of the USA Basketball Men's Junior World Championship qualifying team.
For his part, Wilkes scored 22 points, dished five assists and stole the ball four times per game last season.
Loyola's athletic trainer of 14 years, Tim Moscicki has watched Wilkes mature through the system. He said Wilkes was one of the best players he had ever seen at Loyola, which also boasts former UCLA star Toby Bailey as an alumnus. Moscicki said the Jayhawks were getting a class individual with a strong family background along with a great player in Wilkes.
"He's one of the nicest people I know, and the same goes for his parents," he said. "I wish all parents could be like his."
Wilkes's father, Jamal, is a west coast legend. He played for the UCLA Bruins and then the Los Angeles Lakers in the 1970s and '80s.

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING
By Jason King
The Kansas City Star
There's a box in the Kansas football office that's filled with thumbtacks. But, so far this week, coach Mark Mangino hasn't been able to find a use for them.
For the past few days, Mangino has been hunting for quotes, headlines, stories anything that suggests Baylor may enter Saturday's showdown in Waco, Texas, with a lack of respect for Mangino's Jawhawks.
"We've been searching the newspapers and the Internet," Mangino said. "And right now there's (nothing)."
Still, as the game draws closer, KU's bulletin board remains blank.
Of course there's not. Any team as bad as Baylor knows better than to talk any snack. The Bears, 2-2, have lost 29 straight Big 12 games and are 8-29 in Kevin Steele's four-plus years as head coach.
By David Mitchell
Lawrence Journal-World
Mark Mangino doesn't like to talk about injuries.
He must dislike being asked about them even more.
Kansas University's football coach broke his own policy at his Tuesday news conference and revealed that junior running back Reggie Duncan has a hamstring injury.
Duncan, who was a starter last year, hasn't played since the second game of the season. In the interim three weeks, Mangino said Duncan had an unspecified "nagging injury" each time he was asked about Duncan's status.
"I keep telling you he has a nagging injury," Mangho said with a chuckle. "Well, now it's starting to nag me a little bit that I have to tell you that every
time we meet. The nagging injury is a hamstring, and it's not ready. We're hoping he'll be ready to see some action this weekend, but I can't promise you that."
By Ric Anderson
The Topeka Capital-Journal
LAWRENCE — Kansas linebacker Leo Etienne wasn't even alive in the mid-1970s, but he certainly can tell you a thing or two about being exposed to streakers.
OK, so we're not talking about people who run around in nothing but sneakers and a smile,but rather teams like Tulsa,which KU beat last week to extend the nation's longest losing streak to 15 games,and Baylor, which has lost 29 straight Big 12 games heading into Saturday's meeting with the Jayhawks.
"It does motivate us," Etienne said. "We don't want to be the team that ends the streak, because if we do that it's all over the nation. 'Kansas loses to Baylor' (or) 'Kansas loses to Tulsa.' We don't want to be that team."
Against the Jayhawks, the Bears have a chance to bookend their run of futility, which began in 1998 after a 31-24 victory over KU in Waco. Five straight conference losses followed under former coach Dave Roberts, who won one league game in each of his two seasons before being replaced by Kevin Steele in 1999.
By John Allen
Baylor University
As the Bears prepare to open Big 12 play Saturday against the University of Kansas, a review of the team's performance in non-conference games is in order.
With a 2-2 record through four games, the Bears' two wins came against a Division I-AA (Samford) and a Division I-A team with the longest current losing streak in the country (Tulsa). The two losses were embarrassing road defeats. The University of California hung the speed limit on the Bears

Grocery store offers 'Help' with Beatles classes
By Amy Kelly akelly@kansan.com Jayplay writer
THE BEATLES
The Community Mercantile, 901 Iowa St., is hosting a series of classes about The Beatles
Contributed art
The Community Mercantile, 901 Iowa St., is holding a series of educational classes that revolve around something other than tofu preparation and holistic therapy. Beginning tonight, disciples of the Fab Four will be treated to "The Beatles: A Magical History Tour."
When taking the weekly trip to the local grocery, you may suddenly find yourself strolling through strawberry fields.
Lloyd Kirk, a KU graduate and manager of Hume Music in Topeka, is the guide for the nostalgic four-part series.
"The Beatles lend themselves pretty easily to four different time periods," Kirk said. "What we thought would be interesting was for it to be more of an anecdotal journey. I'm really hoping that there might be some interesting things those who come didn't know about."
The course spans the Beatles' 12-year career chronologically — from the Liverpool years to the band's eventual dissolution in 1970 — but also brings students closer to each of the four members.
A grocery store may not be the typical setting for a discussion on Ringo Starr or John Lennon, but the Merc's Education Foundation, which organizes the classes offered at the Merc, said the course's nonprofit sponsor, Music Access, was a perfect match for its mission to enhance the quality of life.
Jennifer Wesco, Music Access executive director, began the organization to provide musical instruments and lessons to individuals unable to finance their musical interests.
"Wow, is it hard to look in these little kids' eyes," Wesco said. "Knowing that through no fault of their own they can't rent instruments."
When she worked alongside Kirk at the Lawrence Hume location, Wesco realized. Kirk's vast knowledge of pop culture could be a helpful tool for Music Access. During the summer, she approached the Merc about organizing an eight-week pop culture session, which was composed of classes focused on various pop culture topics, such as the Beatles.
Wesco said that as a member of the Merc, she wondered if it would be interested in sponsoring pop culture classes. She said the Beatles was the biggest and most popular class.
Nancy O'Connor, executive director of the Merc's Education Foundation, said she was pleased with the addition of Music Access' Beatles series.
"Not only is it interesting, the spirit of it is wonderful," said O'Connor. "One-hundred percent of the money goes to Music Access."
Along with helping to fund Music Access, Kirk said he was enjoying the idea of sharing his love of music with the community.
"I love to tell stories and be around crowds of people," said Kirk, who has about 400 Beatles singles and 15,000 pieces of music memorabilia in his personal collection. "Every day people would stand around me and say, 'I didn't know that.'"
Kirk said he hoped his classes would have a unique impact on every student.
"At these classes, you might possibly be sitting next to someone who saw the Kansas City concert or the Ed Sullivan Show appearance of February 1964," Kirk said.
"The stories behind the scene are what I'm really interested in. I want Beatles fans to have an 'ah-ha' moment every single class."
The first session of "The Beatles: A Magical History Tour" is 7:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Community Mercantile, 901 Iowa St. Three subsequent sessions will be held
Oct. 10, 17 and 24. The cost of each class is $10 and preregistration is suggested. For more information, call 843-8544. All proceeds go to the Music Access program.

Folk artists to play free concert for students tonight
By Janette Yost jyost@kansan.com Jayplaywriter
Two women folk artists with national recognition will play a free show for students at 7:30 tonight at the Hawk's Nest in the Kansas Union.
Colleen Sexton and Trina Hamlin have paid their dues in the world of independent folk, playing at small clubs and music halls of New England for years.
Their hard work is paying off. Now on a national tour together, Sexton and Hamlin will each play a set of their unique music both reviewed as a combination of jazz blues, folk and pop.
Colleen Sexton, younger sister of the
famed "new folk" singer Martin Sexton, has played at many venues and festivals, including the highly esteemed Philadelphia Folk Festival. Her first CD, Stepping Out, earned her two nominations for the 1999 Boston Music Awards, one for Outstanding New Contemporary Folk Act and another for Outstanding Debut Contemporary Folk CD.
In Jan. 2001, she released a live album, Colleen Sexton Live, with Hamlin and percussionist Tim Kelly. She plans to release a studio album this year. Sexton has played with a number of more widely known fellow folkies, including Ellis Paul, Susan Werner, Melissa Ferrick, John Gorka and
Greg Greenway, many of whom have played in Lawrence over the past years.
"Colleen Sexton is one of the top young talents of the circuit with a supple voice and pop/R&B beat reminiscent of brother Martin," reviewer Daniel Gewertz wrote in the Boston Herald.
Hamlin has played shows across the country with big names such as Paula Cole, Duncan Sheik and Ricki Lee Jones. She has played on the Late Show with Conan O'Brien, and her songs have been featured on Dawson's Creek, The Real World and the CBS made-for-TV-movie Friends at Last. She has released three solo albums and was chosen as one of the "Most Wanted New Artists" at New York's Falcon Ridge Folk Festival. She
graduated from Berklee College of Music in Boston with a degree in professional music.
Jim Catalano of the Ithaca Journal, Ithaca, N.Y., described Hamlin as having "a powerhouse voice, sizzling harmonica chops and a gift for blending blues, folk, pop and rock."
Lawrence's West Side Folk and the Kansas Union are hosting the event. A KUID is required for free admission; the cost is $5 for non-students. Find more information at www.westsidefolk.org, www.colleensexton.com, www.trinahamlin.com or call 865-FOLK.

Conner moving out of the garage
By Matt Beat
mbeat@kansan.com
Jayplay writer
Lawrence rock band Conner is moving out of the garage and into the studio.
The band is currently recording its first full-length album, which is scheduled for an early to mid-November release.
"The album is pretty much finished," said singer and guitarist James Duft.
Duft said it took a long time to begin recording because the band didn't have enough money, and had yet to sign with a record label.
Conner has released only one demo with six songs on it, but the band is quickly gaining popularity in Lawrence.
According to KJHK and rockkansas.com, since last spring when Conner's first demo songs played, the band quickly became known as "the band that sounded like The Strokes."
After that initial airplay, Duft said the band received e-mails from people around the world telling them they liked their music.
"I sent out over 100 copies of our demo to people who e-mailed us wanting our music," said Duft, who eventually had to stop sending out demos in June because he couldn't afford the overwhelming demand.
Duft said the strangest e-mail he received was from a man in Scotland, who said he was walking down the street humming a song, but he didn't know who sang it. He asked his friend who wrote the tune and his friend answered, "Oh, that's Conner."
"It's kind of weird because our smallest
"I admit to ripping off Iggy Pop more than to ripping off The Strokes. Just listen to his song 'Some Weird Sin' and you'll know what I mean."
James Duft singer and guitarist for Conner
amount of contact has been from Lawrence," Duft said.
Duft said Conner had a respectable fan base in Lawrence, but most of the people who came to their shows were regulars. He said that, surprisingly, the band mainly had female fans, which was unusual because garage bands generally appealed more to males.
Bonahoom said with the new album, the band is starting to get more serious. He is happy with the way things are going.
As for the controversy surrounding Conner's similarities to the Strokes, Bonahoom said the controversy has sparked their success, in a way.
He said Conner was mentioned on the Strokes' message board on their Web site. This caused another controversy surrounding the similarities between the two bands, but most people expressed how much they liked Conner's music.
Bonahoom said he was happy to see how successful "garage rock" is right now but didn't know how much Conner fit into the category.
"I like to think we're more rooted in '60s garage rock than most bands of today," Bonahoom said. "A lot of these 'garage
bands' of today really have more of a punk edge to their sound."
Conner plans to go on some small tours starting in November when the band travels to Texas for a few shows. During winter break Conner will start a U.S. tour and during spring break the band will play a West Coast tour.
The band currently averages a show a week and will perform with The Mooney Suzuki and Sahara Hotnights on Monday at The Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St.
The band formed in May 2001, but Duft and bassist Phil Bonahoom have been playing together for six years after meeting in Omaha, Neb.
Bonahoom says he is very excited about the new album and the growing
success of the band.
"Our fan base is quickly building as we get more airplay on KJHK," Bonahoom said. "We really came out of nowhere here in Lawrence last spring."
Duft said he was not sure if the band was a part of the current "garage rock revival" that was going on now with big acts such as The Vines and The White Stripes. He describes Conner's sound as a mix between '60s garage rock and the Iggy Pop/Lou Reed/David Bowie sound of the '70s, and '80s new wave.
"I admit to ripping off Iggy Pop more than to ripping off The Strokes," Duft said, "Just listen to his song 'Some Weird Sin' and you'll know what I mean."

Weezer releases concert album
By Bill Heinen bheinen@kansan.com Jayplay writer
The new Weezer album, The Lion and the Witch was created from the band's World Cup Tour 2002 in Japan and has given music fans another reason to love Weezer.
In simplest terms, this six-song collection is a breath of fresh air, a much-needed glimpse into the surreal and creative atmosphere of a live Weezer show.
The songs will likely keep a lot of the new younger Weezer fans from immediately seeking out this limited-edition CD, which is available in Lawrence only at Kief's Downtown Music, 823 Massachusetts St., according to Weezer's official Web site, weezer.com. The album doesn't automatically begin with the anthem-like "Dope Nose," although that is the first "real" song. Instead, frontman Rivers Cuomo begins with gentle Pixies-esque, high-pitched coos and wails amid the noise of countless Japanese fans and feedback from the arena. It
In simplest terms, this six-song collection is a breath of fresh air, a much-needed glimpse into the surreal and creative atmosphere of a live Weezer show.
feels like the beginning of a great show. Then, after a greeting from the lead nerd Cuomo who said, "Good morning, Japan. Welcome to our show," they proceed to play with a furious intensity—the drums pounding, the guitar solo off by just a second, the defiant vocals growling through the microphone, driving the Attention Deficit Disorder-inspired lyrics home.
the imperfections of a live show shine through. The second verse, beginning with "I asked you to go to the Green Day concert," isn't complete, but this only makes the song all the more beautiful. The band fumbles its way incredibly to the refrain in a methodical manner.
Included among the songs are two Pinkerton classics, "Falling for You," in which Cuomo begs for the Lord's assistance before the opening notes are played flawlessly, and "El Scorcho." For a lot of the older listeners, "El Scorcho" is considered a difficult song and in this album all
"I island in the Sun" is more aggressive here than on the green album, with a hefty supply of distortion and choppier vocals. But the best part is the finale, when the audience screams for more and Cuomo lets the last note of the chorus linger on. The other two songs, "Death and Destruction" and "Holiday" are rarely played live, so their appearance on The Lion and The Witch is a treat.
The band wanted to include all of its mistakes on the final demo, from bassist Scott Shriner's shaky "Holiday" harmonization with Cuomo during the breakdown to drummer Pat Wilson's shenanigans before a few songs.
If that isn't enough, the CD sleeve contains four letters from Japanese fans who each saw different concerts. Their praise of

the band in somewhat incoherent English is adorable. Even across the sea, Weezer means rock.
Critics have said the demo is incomplete. The album seems incomplete but that is its most amazing aspect. It just leaves you drooling, ready for more. Luckily, the fans won't have to wait too long. According to weezer.com, the band plans to record material for its fifth album during the fall and winter of 2002 and wants to release it and a DVD in early 2003. Whether the album is white, yellow or red, it's going to fulfill all expectations and bring in a new era of nerd rock.

'Tuxedo' fits Chan, spoofs spy-movie genre
I
Contributed art
A high-tech tuxedo transforms a simple taxi driver, Jackie Chan, into a Bond-esque superhero in his latest movie, The Tuxedo.
Jackie Chan's mild-mannered persona is a perfect fit for The Tuxedo.
In The Tuxedo Chan plays a James Bond-like character named Jimmy Tong, a New York City taxi driver. Tong is hired as a chauffeur for Clark Devlin (Jason Isaacs), an international spy. When his boss sustains a severe head wound in a freak skateboard-bombing attack he puts on his boss's high-tech tuxedo. Tong was just a driver, but now he has sworn to avenge Devlin's attack.
FILM
The tux's electrodes immediately calibrate the suit to fit his body. There is an accompanying watch that controls the action the tux takes. It spans from demolish mode to booty shaking. Now he looks like Bond, and the suit electronically makes Tong act like Bond. But, even though he is now able to assemble and use a sniper rifle in a matter of seconds, he is still just as unconfident and reserved as he was before.

The dichotomy between being a super hero and being a normal man sets The Tuxedo apart from other spy films. So often spy movies turn out to be jokes because they try to live up to the ultra-suave character that the Bond movies have established. This movie seems to be tailored to offer the thrill of espionage while having fun with a fish-out-of-water story.

The Tuxedo still has a few snags. It's hung up on pandering to the typical formula of a spy using secret weapons to catch a sinister villain hell-bent on dominating the world by launching some deranged scheme. And there's the bosomy heroine who is an expert in some advanced branch of science. But The Tuxedo plays with this and forms the movie perfectly around Jennifer Love Hewitt's curvy body.
Her character, Del Blaine, seems to be a microbiologist and a water expert, which leads her to being paired with and mistaking Tong for Clark Devlin. However, instead of using her intelligence, she lets

her breasts do most of the talking. They get the duo into concerts, parties and seduce the villain.
In the middle of trying to seduce the villain's mistress, James Tong tries to keep his pants on rather than follow in Bond's footsteps and sleep with the woman first and worry about his assignment second. Why is Tong so unwilling to strip down? Shedding the tuxedo would strip away all of his spylike know-how and would expose an unconfident and shy self.
Perhaps the filmmakers are trying to say that we can surround ourselves with as many gadgets and falsehoods as we want, but once those are taken away all we have is what is inside of us. Stripped down, The Tuxedo is an enjoyable take on a genre that has been worn thin.

'Red Dragon'eerie addition to Hannibal trilogy
The name Hannibal Lecter evokes a
FILM REVIEW
A. H. A.
The name Hannibal Lecter evokes a kind of guilty sentimentality. The not-so-good doctor, with his soft spot for "nice Chianti," may be a scoundrel, a cheat, even a cannibal, but he's so intensely brilliant and charming about it, we smile and forgive him for his sins.

Ex-FBI agent Will Graham, played by Edward Norton, turns to his nemesis, Dr. Hannibal Lecter, played by Anthony Hopkins, for help in tracking a serial killer in Red Dragon.
Contributed photo
Stephen King once commented on public fascination with the dark side. King spoke of fear as second nature, as the invisible hand that turned our heads toward a fatal car accident. By experiencing fear and understanding it, we come closer to understanding death.
To fill that bill, director Brett Ratner brings us Red Dragon, a tense thriller that completes a particular cinematic circle. It features the third performance by Anthony Hopkins as Lecter. Ratner's film develops only a shadow of the depth of Jonathan Demme's The Silence of the Lambs and lacks the grotesque images of Ridley Scott's Hannibal, but it glides on plenty of power and a keen ability to disturb.
The film opens a decade before Clarice Starling met Lester, when the madman still gave on-the-couch mental treatment to his patients. In a disorienting scene that seems to start in the middle of the movie, we witness Lecter's violent capture by FBI's top tracker, Will Graham, played by Edward Norton.
A jump forward in time finds Leeter behind his familiar sheet of glass and a new killer disposing of families in a uniquely shocking way. He stabs them to death with pieces of glass, removes their eyeballs and
inserts glass ones instead. Graham, now retired and still recovering from the spiritual and physical wounds Lecter left him, is called in to find the psychopath, who names himself "The Red Dragon."
Graham visits Lecter in prison for advice on "The Red Dragon" profile. The dialogue and wit in these scenes often reach the same pitch as The Silence of the Lambs, but Norton and Hopkins have little tension to play off of. When Jodie Foster stood in front of Hopkins, both the vulnerabilities of her character and Lecter's isolation left a thick cloud of psychological and sexual anticipation in the air. Graham is less developed, and the highlights in Norton's hair only accentuate that he's too young for the part.
In contrast, Hopkins looks too old to be playing a Lecter younger than we've seen him before. Still, little of this matters when that mouth and those eyes of his turn animalistic; he's still able to jolt the audience with his acting. Lecter's macabre sense of humor still amuses. But, he's become a little predictable, and the film actually benefits from his relatively minor role.
The film really belongs to Ralph Fiennes' character, Francis Dollarhyde, the man who's killing families and writing fan letters to Lector. Dollarhyde represents the first truly demented character of the Hopkins-as-Lecter trilogy. Whether sporting his snaking, body-length tattoos or cursing his mother, this frightening individual shows mental illness at its leastrefined, least Lecter-like stage.
With strong supporting performances from Philip Seymour Hoffman and Emily Watson, everybody's favorite doctor is definately back. Hoffman's final scene is so unnerving that the audience may not know whether to laugh or scream.

Love made dangerous, treacherous in 'Sex and Lucia'
FILM SNOB
DAVID SMITH
Sex and Lucia, the new Spanish import, is a prime example of the European style of filmmaking that doesn't have to pull punches when it comes to the intimacy of its situations.
A fantastically sexy cast and a solid story, told by filmmaker Julio Medam who directed another equally interesting film, Lovers of the Arctic Circle, puts a captivating spell on the audience.
James Owen
jowen@kansan.com
Lucia (Paz Vega) enters the film without much background but a face that says it all. She's a waitress at a restaurant who is stalking the famous author, Lorenzo (Tristan Ulloa).
Lorenzo meets a woman on an island off
They pursue a whirlwind sexual experience which ends in Lorenzo disappearing in a quicker fashion than he entered. The audience may not be sure whether to trust his actions as fact or fiction.
the coast of Spain and engages in a torrid affair. The woman, who we later learn is Elena (Najwa Nimri), becomes pregnant from the experience and gives birth to a child she names Luna, or "moon" in Spanish. The child's name becomes symbolic as strange things begin to happen when Luna and a full moon appear in the same frame.
Elena raises Luna in Madrid where Lorenzo finds out about her and decides to try to enter her life. While this begins as innocent, it becomes far more complicated as he becomes intertwined with their family. This is another instance when it's difficult to distinguish whether the story is fiction or fact.
'SEX&LUCIA'
Starring Paz Vega, Tristan Ulloa Not rated Playing at Tivoli Manor Square, 4050 Pennsylvania Ave., Kansas City, Mo.
The island that Lorenzo calls a sanctuary, and which acts as the pivotal point for every relationship in the film, is a dangerous and treacherous place. It is as fragile and volatile as any relationship in the entire film. The purpose of this film is to show how love feels.
In the various story lines, Sex and Lucia shows the joy and the passion of love. Indeed, the sex scenes in the film may be
some of the most playful in the past ten years. But, in following scenes, the pain is just as easily conveyed, like childbirth, the death of a family member and remembering a former flame. These scenes are intertwined to give those watching it the full effect of the experiences of the characters. These themes, as well as the symbolism, are consistent throughout.
Medam does well to remember that the film's story is tricky and hard to follow, but is able to combine the imagery of the island, of the houses, and of the relationships without confusing the audience.
And if sex is your thing, this film will work as well. At worst, the scenes are so explicit that they take away from the emotional impact. But, a little too much skin is not enough to dock Sex and Lucia for what it really is: one of the first romantic thrill rides of the decade.

TOMMY'S BARBERS
Zach Straus/Kansan
Bruce Williamson and Jay Amyx cater to their customers' needs at Downtown Barbershop, 824 Massachusetts Street. The barbershop is one of many located downtown.
By Justin Henning jhenning@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
The walls are plastered with aging posters of former college and high school sports teams. Bottles, Wheaties boxes and framed jerseys have all found niches throughout this barbershop.
As the front door is pushed open by a shaggy patron, wisps of fallen hair spin on the floor while stories are woven from the mouths of customers waiting for a chair.
"I tell ya, the fish was this big!" said an older man with extended arms.
The barbershops on Massachusetts Street are constants on a continually changing main street. John Amyx, owner of Downtown Barbershop, 824 Massachusetts St., said he enjoyed the conversations.
"It's a meeting place," he said. "Anything and everything has probably ever been said in a barbershop, but it might not be repeated."
For the last 27 years, Amyx has been a full-time barber. He has seen hairstyles come and go, then later resurface.
"Junior high kids with their long hair think they have these new hairstyles," he said. "But really we've just cycled through all the possibilities."
This prompted an old man to heckle him about being old and out of touch with
"today's whipper-snappers." In his late 40s, Amyx just laughed.

Shop, 924 Massachusetts St., waiting for the next round of customers to walk in. All they got was a reporter looking for an old-fashioned shave.
"Sorry, we don't do that any more," Franklin Sr., said.
A shave and hot towel facials are no longer cost-effective for barbershops, he said, and people weren't willing to pay $8 for a quick procedure.
The fifth owners since it opened in 1927, the father and son co-owners said they loved what they did.
"We especially love cutting long hair off," Franklin Sr., said. "There's nothing like a short haircut."
Considered unique meeting places by their owners, barbershops take on a conversational life of their own, mediated by barbers as they cut, trim and comb.
"My father once told me that to be a good barber, you had to know a little about a lot of things," he said.
Among their limitless conversation topics lies the secret history of barbers.
Larry Franklin Jr., said the swirled red, white and blue poles dated to the days of the Old West, when barbers did more than cut hair.
"If you had a gunshot or arrow wound or needed a tooth pulled, you went to the barber," he said. "They always had hot water and towels on-hand."
The stripes were symbols of the barbershops hanging their clean and bloodied rags out to dry.
"You would just look for these towels swirling in the wind," Franklin Jr., said.
As for the blue stripe, he said it was added for patriotic reasons in the early 1900s.

Scott Roberts, Arma junior, said the barbershops in Lawrence were a nice change from the shopping mall he went to back home.
As surrounding shops change through the years and restaurants come and go, the barbershops on Massachusetts Street have stayed the same.
"It's a unique experience," he said. "It's a bunch of guys sitting around talking sports, watching TV and reading the paper."
Amyx had an additional explanation for his longevity as a barber.

'Two Gentlemen'a tale of learning, growing
By Donovan Atkinson datkinson@kansan.com Jayplay writer
THE MUSICAL THEATRE
Actors Andrew York, Wichita sophomore, and Chris Wheatley Lawrence junior, portray characters Proteus and Valentine in the upcoming production of The Two Gentlemen of Verona.
John Nowak/Kansan
Moving into adulthood is a step every young person has to take. Leaving home, seeking knowledge and finding love are steps commonly taken. Add in betraying childhood friends, cross-dressing and fickle hearts, and growing up becomes a Shakespeare comedy.
The Two Gentlemen of Verona, one of William Shakespeare's early comedies, revolves around two young men and their experiences of moving from a small city to a larger one. Summer Eglinski, who plays the mother of one the protagonists in the University Theatre production, said the play connected with today's young people.
"It really parallels the transition from high school to college," Eglinski, Lawrence sophomore, said.
In Two Gentlemen, Proteus and his friend Valentine go to the court in Milan from Verona. Valentine seeks to improve himself, but Proteus is sent by his mother.
'The Two Gentlemen of Verona'
William Shakespeare's comedy, The Two Gentlemen of Verona, will be performed at 7:30 p.m. on Oct.4,5,10,11 and 12,and at 2:30 p.m. Oct.6 at the Crafton-Preyer Theatre in Murphy Hall. Tickets are $12 and $14 for the public,$10 for students and $11 and $13 for senior citizens. The play is directed by John Gronbeck-Tedesco,with sets and costumes by Beth Collins and lighting design by Elinor Parker.
Proteus' love, Julia, heads to Milan disguised as a man to reunite with him. Meanwhile, both gentlemen have fallen in love with Silvia, the daughter of the duke.
"A principal source of the comedy is the confusion the characters have in the context of love and relationships," said John Gronbeck-Tedesco, Two Gentlemen director.
The play, which opens the University Theatre's season, was selected for production because of its comedic aspects and educational merits.
"Shakespeare is a great training ground," Gronbeck-Tedesco said. "It poses challenges, and the effort to meet those challenges is educational for young actors."
Shakespeare also poses challenges for audiences. Some theater-goers may not understand an Elizabethan comedy set in 1590s Italy, so a change has been made for this production.
The University Theatre production of Two Gentlemen is set in the late 1950s, a period often identified with innocence.
"It may not be historically true," Gron-
beck-Tedescosaid, "butit is a popular image."
The period was selected to help portray the movement of the characters from innocent youths to world-weary adults.
Despite the serious subject matter of growing up and becoming an adult, the
play is still a comedy.
"If you're looking for two hours worth of smiles," Gronbeck-Tedesco said, "this is the play to go to."

Seinfeld's new stand-up not as friendly, just as funny
Former TV comedian takes on heavier topics
By Henry C. Jackson
cjackson@kansan.com
Javplav writer
According to comedian Jerry Seinfeld, everyone's life sucks. And your life, Seinfeld concedes, probably sucks more than his.
Post-Sept. 11, 2001, a new, punchier Seinfeld has emerged. This bit, from Seinfeld's performance Saturday at Midland Theatre in Kansas City, Mo., is a microcosm of Seinfeld's latest material, a grittier selection than the normally enthusiastic comedian has previously performed.
Gone from Seinfeld's recent performances, for the most part, is his classic family-friendly humor — bits about standing ovations, overhead compartments in airplanes and the like have been replaced by racier bits about marriage, the Taliban, Subway's Jared and the many juxtapositions of the word "ass," in the English language.
The new Seinfeld looks harder at the world. He's still a brilliant observer of humans, he's just a bit harsher in his dissection.
Seinfeld's new approach is apparent from the start. In his opening monologue, he pokes fun at American-born Taliban member John Walker Lindh. Aside from taking Lindh to task — to great comedic effect — for "playing on the wrong team," Seinfeld isn't above making an innuendo about his sexual preference. It's no surprise to Seinfeld that Lindh is from San Francisco.
Racier bits like this one are commonplace in Seinfeld's newly liberated repertoire. Curse words, previously limited to the odd "damn" or "hell" for emphasis,
are used more liberally to season the new material. While Seinfeld has not resorted to dropping F-bombs for no reason, he's no longer above using "goddamn," "bitch" or "ass," to make a point. He even refers to one guy who annoys him as a "jerk-off," a distinctly eighth-grade insult that somehow feels right when uttered by a comedic demigod like Seinfeld.
Perhaps the most perplexing aspect of Seinfeld's latest routine is his desire to distance himself from his past, specifically his television show. He made only one vague reference to what was ultimately his vehicle to stardom. "I'm your friend from TV," he said.
Though he's previously allowed fans to persuade him into repeating catch phrases from his TV show — his trademark "Hello Newman" was always a favorite — he now seems happy to ignore his television past,
Classic fans should not worry. While Seinfeld's a bit more aggressive, he still uses the same painfully logical tactics to illicit laughs. For instance, in a bit toward the end of his performance, Seinfeld says he has discovered that the words "great" and "sucks" are basically the same thing. Seinfeld asked what people said when something that sucks happened, such as having an ice cream cone fall on the ground. They say "great."
awards shows such as the Golden Globes and the Emmys.
Despite the apparent attitude adjustment, which is more like a tweak than a change, Seinfeld is still Seinfeld. Finding the idiotic intricacies of human activity and nature remains Seinfeld's strength and his best source of material. And he's still hilarious. He's just a little bit more blunt now.

Hand bags no longer billboards for designers
Purses are the completing element of the perfect outfit, an essential ingredient in one's wardrobe,and, in some cases,reflective of the political and emotional state of our country.
FASHION
You may be wondering how something that seems so irrelevant, such as hand bags, can depend heavily on the circumstance of society. Designers create their garbs to not only reflect the season, but also what's going on in the world. Important events that affect society, in turn, affect the demand of consumers.
Sara Behunek sbehunek@kansan.com
With that in mind, I turned to my friend Alyson Coffing, Apple Valley, Minn., junior.
I consider Aly a handbag connoisseur. Hanging in her room are eight purses featuring the likes of Gucci, Kate Spade and Coach. On some of her purses the logo is barely noticeable and on others, such as the Coach bag, the logo is in a repeating pattern on the outer fabric.
Aly and I recently sat down to discuss an article on purses I read in The New York Times.
According to the article, "Dropping Logos That Shout, Luxury Sellers Try Whispers," by Tracy Rozhon, designers are taking a conservative approach to handbag design. Referred to as "walking billboards," by Marshal Cohen, co-president of NPDFashionworld, a market information service in Port Washington, N.Y., the last decade of handbags was covered in G's
(Gucci), LVs (Louis Vuitton) and CCs Channel).
In contrast, this season's purses have their logos discreetly embossed in leather or displayed by other tactful means. In January, Coach will release a subtler version of the logoed purse. The new C's will be "so small they read like checks," said Reed Krakoff, president and creative director of Coach
Aly said the sobering effect of Sept. 11 might have caused people to move away from the tacky and conform to a humble individual style.
"I think toning down the logos in the fashion world definitely represents a shift that was motivated by Sept. 11. So much has happened in the past year — everyone just wants to chill out instead of being so bold and out-there," she said.
Sept. 11 and its resounding effects have reverberated in almost every aspect of our lives, but it takes more than just one factor
to change the face of fabrics. Everything is more classic and understated this season from handbags to jackets.
This fall and winter, designers will take their creations back to their classic roots. However, classic does not mean boring, and toned down does not mean unoriginal. The shapes of handbags this season especially the clutch purses are original, yet more subtle than the signature fabric.
Carrying a handbag with a large logo is like wearing a neon sign for that company just a more upper-class logo than T-shirts that say, "Abercrombie," "Tommy Hilfiger" or "CK."
OK, maybe those T-shirts are worse and yes, maybe I have coveted an expensive purse with the logo plastered on like an advertisement, but with all things considered, a life without the G's, LVs and the CCs is not too bad.
MTV video jockey defies expectations with attitude
At times I can be quite a shy person, but I'm proud to announce that I feel comfortable enough with all of you readers to tell you about my relationship. My love-hate relationship with MTV, that is.
POP VULTURE
Marc Ingber
mingber@kansan.com
Today I am here to talk about the people who introduce the sometimes brilliant, sometimes terrible shows.
Yes, I'm referring to the video jockeys. To be specific, I'm here to talk about one VJ in particular, and his name is Iann Robinson.
In today's plastic, sugar-coated, silicone-injected, Ken-doll world that is entertainment television, it's easy to pick out the real thing. And let me tell you, Iann Robinson is it.
MTV has boatloads of VJs who put on their happy faces for the camera, compliment the artists no matter what, and generally be a fine upstanding VJ citizen.
I'm not going to name names, but one of these VJs I am referring to rhymes with Parson Baly.
And then there's Iann Robinson, the only VJ on the entire network who will actually say what he's thinking.
He'll tell you when he thinks Justin Timberlake's solo album sucks. He'll say who he thought actually deserved to win the Best Male Video award at the MTV Video Music Awards. He doesn't make excuses for his opinions.
He's a head trip to listen to because he's only giving you things you joke about with your friends inside your living room. The only difference is that he's got the balls to say it in front of us. He just gets on the mike and spits it and whether you like to admit it, he's smarter than 90 percent of you VJs out there (thank you, Eminem).
For those of you who don't know who Iann Robinson is, he's the one who sticks out like a sore thumb. While the rest of the VJs look like they came straight out of the JC Penney catalog, Iann sports a Mohawk, tattoos and a gut. He's not the prettiest one, but his personality makes up for his lack of looks. Obviously, MTV has some smart in the hiring department to have Iann on the staff.
Of course, MTV will always have VJs like Carson Daly to appease the teenyboppers who make up a significant part of the audience. But not all MTV viewers are interested in the teen pop genre. Although these viewers may not get to see a lot of videos they like, with Iann they at least know someone will make fun of the videos they don't like.
This world is full of a lot of horse rubbish, so it's always a breath of fresh air to encounter someone who is pure.
Thank you Iann.

Female genitalia: more than just a vagina
Men have penises; women have vaginas.
SEX
Most people figured this out when they were young.
OLX
But it's not quite right. Sure, men have penises and women have vaginas, but there's a lot more stuff down there that rarely gets the mention it deserves.
For instance, while women do have vaginas, they also have vulvas, clitorises, labia (both majora and minora) and other interesting parts. In fact, if a woman is standing in front of you naked, you're not even seeing her vagina, you're seeing her vulva. Taking a look at the vagina requires spreading the inner and outer vaginal lips and getting a slightly closer look. And without the use of a speculum, or your fingers and a flashlight, you'll only see the vaginal opening. So, if the vagina is inside of a woman, what in the world is all that stuff on the outside?
Meghan Bainum mbainum@kansan.com
Let's take it from the top.
The fleshy mound on the top of the vulva, which is usually covered with hair unless it's been removed, is called the mons pubis. A little pressure on the mons can create a lot of pleasure.
From there, at the top of the vulva, is the holy grail of pleasure for many women, the
clitoris. Covering the clitoris is a little bit of skin called the clitoral hood. Women's clitorises come in a variety of sizes — some easier to find than others — and should be approached with care. While some women like people to establish direct contact with their clitorises, either with hand, tongue or anything else, others prefer a more handsoff approach and might enjoy having the area around the clitoris rubbed more than the "little girl" herself.
From the clitoris, we come to a more easily visible part of the vulva, the vaginal lips. While the outer lips often have hair on them, the inner lips usually do not. Other than this, there is no set guideline for what vaginal lips should look like. Some women have larger inner lips than outer,
for others it is the opposite. Playing around with the inner lips, like gently tugging on them, can cause fantastic feelings for some females.
According to the Guide to Getting It On, by Paul Joannides, playing with the inner lips is a good way to indirectly stimulate an extra-sensitive clitoris.
Chilling out below the clitoris and above the vaginal opening is the urethra. It's difficult to spot the urethra, as it is a small opening. The larger opening below the urethra is called the vaginal opening. Although close together, inserting a penis — or almost anything else for that matter — into the urethra is almost impossible. It's way too small.
According to Joannides, some remarkable changes take place when the vagina gets ready for action. While the first third gets narrower, the back part of the vagina expands. In fact, Joannides says the aroused vagina can double in length, a feat not even the penis can claim. The front of the vagina is more sensitive to touch and the back tends to respond better to pressure.
The vagina isn't the only part that changes when called to duty. The vaginal

lips often become deeper in color because of increased blood flow to the area.The tip of the clitoris also swells, making the little bugger easier to find. But watch out.Many women's clitorises actually retract when an orgasm is imminent.
Just as every woman is different, so is every vulva, clitoris and vagina.
Viva la vulva!
The way a woman smells, tastes and likes her stuff stimulated will almost always be unique.
Breast cancer a threat for all ages and genders
HEALTH
The thought of breast cancer plagues some of us everyday, whether it is a mother, sister, or our own bodies that the disease has stricken. For the rest of us, October is the time to become more conscious of the cancer during National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Leslie Kimmel

While some of us might take this time to help others, the idea of breast cancer affecting us might be far from our minds. According to a Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation Survey, almost 60 percent of women don't think they need to be concerned about the disease.
But there is no reason why anyone male or female, young or old—should not be aware of how to detect and prevent breast cancer.
But those of us who have no reported background of the disease shouldn't push the issue out of sight. The ACS found that
The American Cancer Society (ACS) found that having one first-degree family member - a mother, sister or daughter with the cancer - approximately doubled the risk of inheriting it. Having breast cancer strike two family members increases the risk five times.
So the excuse that "my mom never had it, so I never will" definitely does not apply to breast cancer. The cancer can develop in anyone as early as their 20s and 30s, so it's a good idea to go through the steps of early detection no matter what your family medical background looks like.
80 percent of breast cancer cases occur in women without family histories of the disease.
And this goes for the other half of the population as well. The ACS estimates women are about 100 times more likely to develop breast cancer than men, but men aren't liberated from the disease. Because most men aren't diagnosed with the disease until they have reached the age of 65, the best way to protect against it is through
--early detection. Early detection allows for quicker and more successful treatment. Men should talk to their doctors about the best way to detect breast cancer. Women can immediately begin fighting the disease by following three steps throughout their lives.
Practice breast self-examinations. These should occur every month starting at age 20. At the same time each month, feel your breasts in a circular motion with the pads of your fingers. It you detect any thickness, lumps or other changes, contact your health care provider.
See your doctor for clinical breast exams. These should happen at least once every three years for women older than 20, and every year for women older than 40.
Schedule regular screening mammograms. These should begin at age 40 and occur every year, but if you have a family history of breast cancer it is a good idea to start screening earlier.
Even though you might be doing your part once a month to detect the disease, you can still do more to lower your risk. Researchers have found some connections between certain lifestyles and the development of cancer. At any age, simple changes in your day-to-day life can help lower the risk of developing breast and other cancers.
Limit intake of fats and red meats. Breast cancer is found more in populations with high-fat diets than in populations with low-fat diets. This might be because fat tissue can change some hormones into estrogen, which can increase the chances of developing the disease.
Exercise regularly. Strenuous exercise in childhood followed by moderate exercise in adulthood might also lower the risk of developing breast cancer.
Watch how much you drink. There is a clear connection between alcohol consumption and the development of breast cancer. The ACS finds that women who drink more than two alcoholic drinks per day have 1.5 times the risk of non-drinkers.
Breast cancer can affect all of us without affecting our own bodies. It is second only to lung cancer as the leading cause of death for American women. But through early detection and prevention, it is possible for breast cancer to drop from the ranks of our
top killers.

No Lessons to rock Jazzhaus
I suggest this Saturday night get a group of friends together, make one of the following cash-money cocktails, and check out a quintessential component of Lawrence music, No Lessons, at the Jazzhaus, 926 Massachusetts St.
Tone, rhythm, volume, accuracy, pitch, and preciseness; when blended all together form a simplistic sound.
When the music is noticed one only can stand still and just listen.

Christina DiGiacomo cdigiacome@kansan.com
Attention is immediately drawn into the exceptional, enticing, eclectic musical harmonization of the band No Lessons.
What makes its music — a cross between Rusted Root and Dave Matthews Band — so good is how intact and lateral this band is with one another.
"Our roots acoustic rock music is very harmony driven," Jeff Goldford lead vocal said.
"Each of us has our own unique individuality ... we just mesh together," Aaron Lerner harmonica and piano player said.
Not only do they mesh well together through creating music, their stage presence for a local band is too inconceivable and unimaginable for just being a local
band.
They can entertain an audience, get most of the audience grooving to the music or the audience can enjoy the eye candy tactic.
The group mainly focuses on its original music although they do play cover songs, Lerner stresses they are not a cover band.
One Track Mind is the name of the band's new Reaction Records-produced CD which is set to release Oct. 25 at Abe and Jake's, 8 E. Sixth St.
No Lessons plays with opening act and Oklahoma's hottest band, King James Verzion at 10:30 p.m. Saturday at the Jazzhaus.

Lawrence Oktoberfest to celebrate German beer, food
By Todd Rapp
trapp@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
St. John the Evangelist will hold its sixth annual Oktoberfest from 4:30 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. Saturday at the church, 1234 Kentucky St.
Oktoberfest, one of the largest festivals in the world, was first held on Oct. 12, 1810, in Munich, Germany. King Ludwig I created the festival to celebrate his marriage to a Bavarian princess. The celebration became an annual event.
The local festival began in 1997, and has
been a chance for the community to experience traditional German folklore and beer in a relaxed, festive environment.
"We've always approached this as an opportunity for people to come out and enjoy the fall weather and the food," Tim Keller, Oktoberfest committee chair, said.
The food is the main attraction,because it is homemade,Keller said.
"The staff started two weeks ago. If you want food, come early, because we generally sell out," Keller said.
Other attractions include an ethnic German Mass, beginning at 4:30 p.m. A German Liederkrantz group will perform a
folk concert with traditional German folk songs. An accordionist and a polka orchestra will also perform during the festival. Two guests with the best German outfits and most festive attitude will be crowned polka "king" and "queen" at the end of the evening.
The crowd will also be able to take part in a sing-along session in German. Sheets will be provided with German lyrics to enable the crowd to participate.
Bill Keel, professor and chair of Germanic languages, will be present to lead the crowd in a German-American traditional song, the "Schnitzelbanch."
The song usually is sung while making references to funny pictures on a Schnitzelbanch poster put out by German breweries, Keel said.
Money raised during the festival will benefit the St. John Elementary School and the church.
Keller said there would be events for children as well as adults, and that he encouraged everyone to come out and enjoy themselves.
"It is a family affair, and we consider KU students part of the family," Keller said.
Escaped tiger killed by Indiana police near truck stop
— Edited by Matt Norton
By Wende Adams
The Daily Vidette via U-Wire Illinois State University
NORMAL,Ill.-Saturday at 5 a.m.at tiger got loose at a Bloomington, Ind., truck stop near Interstates 55 and 74, forcing
local residents to remain indoors.
A veterinarian came to the scene and brought a tranquilizer gun in hopes of calming the tiger down.
Police shot the gun four times but had little success. Nine hours after the tiger chase started, the tiger became a little more
aggressive and attempted to get past a nearby pick-up truck.
"The tiger received two shots from the conservation police officers and a shot from a Bloomington Police officer, which ended up killing the tiger," Duane Moss, media relations specialist for the Bloomington Police Department, said.
The owners were in town settling a case of child endangerment involving the tiger biting a young child in May. The judge told the owners to get the tiger out of the state immediately and they were on their way back to Texas when the tiger escaped.

Lawrence running low on sober people
By Brandon Gay
beak@kansan.com
Kansan sati writer
John Nowak/Kansan
iku first
Last week, a University Daily Kansan article revealed some students are having trouble finding marijuana in Lawrence. The Tongue in Beak has learned those same students are also having trouble finding their houses, their cars and their left hands.
About 20,000 University of Kansas students, who would all prefer to remain anonymous, told the Tongue in Beak it was really hard to find marijuana and other drugs when you were already drunk or stoned.
"Of course I have trouble finding weed, man," said Aaron Foley, Lenexa junior. "Most nights I have trouble finding my house. You expect me to find marijuana?"
Having a hard time locating more alcohol and drugs is just one problem caused by an increasing shortage of sober people in Lawrence and at KU.
"With the University here, it's becoming a big problem," said, Sue Hack, Lawrence mayor. "We need sober people to run the government, go to work and drive everyone else home."
According to Hack, the city is in negotiations with Eudora to begin a sober-people for funpeople citizen exchange.
Some KU students say they are having trouble finding sober students to tell them who they are, where they live and how they can get rid of the crazy purple stars.
"Sometimes, I just wish I could find a sober guy—just one," said one student who could not remember her name. "It gets hard to find classes and stuff when everyone else is stoned or drunk, too."
The lack of sober students is causing other problems, as well. According to the KU parking department, the main reason parking space is so limited is because about 10,000 cars have been

abandoned on campus by students who parked them while under the influence and now can't remember where they are.
However, it's not all bad news for the University, said a KU official. "We have the lowest sober student to teacher ratio in the big 12 and that's quite an accomplishment," said the official. "After all, sober students are the ones who attend most of the classes. Currently our sober student to teacher ratio is a phenomenal 1:1."
Corporation to rename country
Effective January 1, 2003, the United States of America will become the Verizon Wireless States of America. President Bush unveiled the new name and revealed the details of the nation's first corporate partnership during his weekly radio address on Friday.
The deal between the federal government and the nation's largest mobile service provider comes partially in response to the ongoing budget crisis, and will generate $14.7 billion over the course of the next 30 years.
The agreement also provides for a special "presidential package" rate plan for Bush
and cabinet members which will include 350 anytime minutes, unlimited nights and weekends, caller ID and free long distance for only $29.95 a month. Subscribers will also receive a coupon for $5 off any Verizon phone accessory. "I am truly looking forward to America's new partnership with Verizon Wirefree" Bush said from his Texas ranch. "And this free nights and weekends package is simply spantabulous."
Bush spent the remainder of his day deciding whether to use his $5 coupon on a holster for his new phone or a zebra-patterned face plate.

Local man blunders in serious relationship
By Robert Perkins and Ian Ostrander beak@kansan.com Kansan satire writers
Topeka sophomore Eric Weiss, 19, committed an egregious error and destroyed what had previously been a flawless relationship.
Until Friday, his now ex-girlfriend Sarah Walker, 20, would have described their dating experience as "idyllic" and "really, really special."
Now, however, his gross negligence has irreparably damaged any chance of a future together.
According to Sarah, "This is so over. I even deleted him from my AIM buddy list."
Last Friday would have been the couple's six and a-half week anniversary, had Weiss not failed to acknowledge the fact with a simple bouquet of roses and instead gone to study at Watson Library.
“It's not like I wanted him to take me out to a fancy dinner or anything,” Walker explained. "It's not like it was a whole-week anniversary. I just wanted him to appreciate this special day."
Weiss was stunned by the ensuing break up.
"While I was at Watson, she called my place and yelled at my roommate for an hour using big words from her psychology classes before he finally broke down crying," Weiss said. "He didn't talk to me for three solid days."
"While I was at Watson, she called my place and yelled at my roommate for an hour using big words from her psychology classes before he finally broke down crying. He didn't talk to me for three solid days."

Although they are no longer together, life goes on for the ex-couple. While Weiss has turned to seclusion and study, Walker now uses Internet chat rooms to facilitate serious relationships.
"My new boyfriend is a really, really special person named shyguy69," Walker said. "In fact, he just proposed to me. We're going to have the most idyllic marriage ever. I can't wait to meet him face-to-face."
Bush turns attention to Scandinavian threat
By Henry C. Jackson
beak@kansan.com
Kansan satire writer
Under increasing pressure from the rest of the world to cool his fiery stance on Iraq, President Bush has turned his attentions to the growing threat of turmoil in Scandinavia, declaring the region an area "of extremely high interest" to national security at a press conference yesterday.
"They make me very,very nervous," Bush said of Scandinavians. "They
live about half of the year in darkness. Who's to say what they're doing?"
When asked what about the region made him nervous, Bush said finances was a big concern.
"Neither Denmark nor Sweden accepted the Euro as their currency," Bush
said. "Does anybody, I mean anybody, really know what a 'Krona' is?"
A representative of the Bush administration said British prime minister Tony Blair assured Bush that the United Kingdom would be behind any military action undertaken by the U.S.
It was thought initially that Blair would not support a U.S. attack on Scandinavia unless it excluded Sweden, which Britain has close ties with.
In particular, Blair worried that England's soccer manager, Sven Goran Erikson.
a Swede, would intentionally sabotage upcoming matches as revenge for the attacks.
"We realized that we aren't even as good at soccer as the Americans anymore." Blair said. "That's when I told Bush 'let's dance boyo.'"
With Britain's support, Bush thinks he can act swiftly to avoid a Scandinavian-led attack, such as Vikings' reunion tour or a Danish pastry bomb.
"We'll not be sold down the fjord by terrorism," Bush said. "I don't
care how efficient their health care system is."

Cyclists receive citations
By Michelle Burhnn
mburhenn@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Bicyclists who keep pedaling when they see a stop sign on campus could land themselves a $92 fine.
Even though it violates traffic regulations, most students don't pay attention to stop signs, said Lt. Schuyler Bailev of the KU Public Safety Office.
Two KU Public Safety officers issued traffic citations to seven students within an hour last month when the students failed to stop at Jayhawk Boulevard and Sunflower Road, the road between Watson Library and Stauffer-Flint Hall.
"Bicyclists need to realize they need to obey the same laws as motorists," he said.
Bailey said that because it had enough available officers, the KU Public Safety Office randomly monitored traffic at the intersection Sept.19. The office had only issued one other violation to a bicyclist in 2002 for failing to stop at a stop sign.
"It's $92 total." Bailey said. "Ouch, how many students want to give $92 to the city?"
The fine for failing to stop at a stop sign is $60 and the court fee is $32.
Lara Holley doesn't. Holley, St. Louis freshman, said she crossed the street with a group of pedestrians and was issued a citation for not stopping at the intersection.
just going to give her a warning
"I don't have any other traffic violations otherwise," she said. "I was kind of surprised that my first ticket was a $22 ticket on a bike."
Holley said she thought the $92 was too much for a traffic violation involving a bike.
"It's not like I could have done any harm on my bike like a car could," she said. "It's not as dangerous."
But City Prosecutor Jerry Little said traffic fines were set based on a statute that requires both bicycles and cars to follow the same rules and regulations.
"Running a stop sign is running a stop sign," Little said. "Whether you are on a bike or in a car, you're going to pay the same fine."
STOP

"It was obvious that the officer wasn't worried about safety," he said. "It was just to give me a ticket. It wasn't like I was endangering anyone."
Myles Ikenberry, Salina junior, also received a fine. He said no cars were in the intersection when he went through the stop sign.
Ikenberry said he stopped at every stop sign now. The $92, he said, scared him enough to change his habits.

Most bicyclists don't stop for stop signs, says Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office. Failure to heed the often-ignored traffic law could earn cyclists $92 in fines if they are caught.
Bailey said the traffic enforcement was about safety.
"Bikes are sharing the roads with both pedestrians and motorists and they need to be aware and stay safe," he said.

Yoga and tai chi: nontraditional ways to exercise
By Lindsay Hanson
Ihanson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The class is one of two full sections of yoga offered at the University of Kansas this semester.
Walk into 248 Robinson on Thursday afternoons and you can find a 70-yearold woman instructing 30 people with their legs spread in the air.
Anne Adams, who has taught yoga since 1977, said fire codes prevented the class from expanding. She said students competed during enrollment for entry into the class.
One student in the class; Jon Hankin,
Overland Park senior, said persistence was the key to landing a spot.
“Being a senior, I think that's why I got in so easily,” he said. “I didn't make it in last year.”
Hankin said moves such as the Upward Dog — in which participants placed hands and feet on the ground and pressed their hips toward the ceiling — eased his mild scoliosis condition.
The class uses different yoga techniques so students can cater their program to fit their own needs.
Focus on breathing and visualization is a central element of every class, Adams said.
"Open your hands and let the sunshine fill your palms," Adams said to the class yesterday.
She said yoga was most effective when participants focused on spiritual thought to relax, such as visualizing light.
Tai chi is a similar exercise technique, said Steven Noble, private tai chi instructor and Overland Park nontraditional student.
He called it "moving meditation," in which the practitioner uses soft, slow martial arts movements. Tai chi looks like yoga movements in one fluid motion.
Noble, who began practicing tai chi 11 years ago to cure his asthma, said the movements could improve physical mental and spiritual health.
"I had problems with my breathing. I was a real sickly kid," Noble said. "Tai chi increased breathing, stamina, concentration, focus — everything."
Noble said he trained about 10 students, ranging from healthy college students to senior citizens.
His students noticed a stronger sense of focus and balance after practicing for a
period of time.
Tai chi can relieve stress from school and improve test results as well, he said.
"Oh my god, whenever I had a chance to do tai chi before I took a test, it took a lot of pressure off," he said.
Tai chi can complement another form or exercise, such as jogging, or it can stand alone, like Noble uses it.
He said one of his students several years ago had used it as an alternative to traditional cancer treatment and recovered.
"The last I heard, she's doing good," he said.
Even though the moves are slow, tai chi can be energized in emergency situations to be used as a form of self defense.

Dean, students talk about budget usage
by Molly Gise
mgise@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
In a time when budget cuts are unavoidable, the former president and CEO of the Board of Regents said he was optimistic about the future of the University of Kansas. Rankings matter, said Kim Wilcox, now the dean of liberal arts and sciences, and the University must dedicate its resources in the areas that will make a difference.
College of Liberal Arts and Sciences Dean Kim Wilcox discusses recent school budget cuts with Kyle Timmermever, Derby freshman. The special talk for students took place last night at Nunemaker.
"The number, I don't think, is as important as the idea of being one of the nation's best public research universities." Wilcox said.
He spoke yesterday night to a small audience of four students in Nunemaker Hall. Wilcox's talk "Budget Cuts?"
Abby West/Kansan
Money raised from the tuition increase was earmarked by the Board of Regents to improve the University, not cover where the budget fell short, Wilcox said. Tuition money has already been spent to increase the salaries of graduate teaching assistants and to improve classrooms.
Tuition Increases? Is This New Math? Implications for Students" focused on the University's budget crisis and desire for higher rankings.
Michael Danielson, Sioux Falls, S.D., sophomore, asked the dean if the University had tried to conserve energy as a cost-cutting measure.
Students asked questions for most of the hour-long meeting. Their questions ranged from the state budget situation, to the future of tuition costs, to saving money.
"At night you go to a computer lab, and
you see a whole lab of computers on," Danielson said. "They're a major drain."
Energy conservation policies exist at the University, Wilcox said, but he didn't know how well they were followed.
Most other states are facing the same money woes as Kansas, but the tuition
increase gives KU an advantage over other state schools, Wilcox said.
"This is an important time in the history of the state," Wilcox said. "If we're smart, we can come out of this in the right way."

Environs challenge University's paper supply
By George Schulz
gschulz@kansan.com
Kansan writer
University of Kansas student environmentalists initiated a campaign this week to end the Boise Cascade Corporation's contract with the State of Kansas for printing and office supplies.
Calling Boise Cascade "morally bankrupt," the KU Environers are basing their campaign on three key points: protecting biodiversity, preserving the spiritual and aesthetic value of old-growth timberlands and ensuring environmental sustainability. The Environers say Boise Cascade has failed in these three areas, and they think that by terminating the contract. Boise Cascade may buckle under market pressure and change its position on the environment.
Boise Cascade's contract with the State of Kansas has been in place since 1999 and is up for renewal on Dec.31 of this year.State agencies and institutions including the University, are bound to the exclusive contract for purchases of office and paper supplies.
Barry Swanson of the University's purchasing department said most offices on campus, excluding KU libraries and printing services, bought approximately 10,000 cases of printing paper per year at a cost of about $250,000.
The Environs said one of the primary objectives for the campaign would be to pressure the University to purchase postconsumer, recycled content printing paper. The group said Boise Cascade was continuing to harvest trees from endangered old-growth forests for its printing paper.
But Ralph Poore, senior communications associate for Boise Cascade, said the company was committed to sensible environmental policies. He cited its long-standing relationships with some mainstream environmental groups, including the Nature Conservancy.
"We've seen groups such as this one before and they make false statements about Boise time and time again," said Poore, referring to the Environs. "The claims are grossly inaccurate, misleading and false. We have set the record straight time and again but they have ignored us."
In March 2002, Boise Cascade announced it would not enter into new federal timber contracts that required the harvest of timber from old-growth forests. Further, the company said it would phase out old-growth logging completely by 2004.
But the Environs contend that Boise Cascade's environmental actions are nothing more than public relations diversions. They said Boise Cascade's definition of old-growth forests was not consistent with those of most major biologists.
"Some people don't really understand the term old-growth forest," said Trisha Shrum, Olathe sophomore and member of the Environs. "It's a pristine ecosystem with a lot of diversity."
Boise Cascade's definition of old-growth forests, according to the company's Web site, states that old-growth timberlands include predominately 200 to 1,000-year-old undisturbed forests of 5,000 acres or more in size. The definition is similar to one given by the Rainforest Action Network, one of Boise Cascade's most active opponents.
However, Chris Brown, assistant professor of environmental studies, said a consistent definition of old-growth forests cannot always be applied to every ecological region around the world.

Two organizations promote Multicultural Resource
Center
The Hispanic American Leadership Organization joined forces yesterday with Student Senate to promote the Multicultural Resource Center.
Organization members spoke at Wescoe Beach to students about the center and what it offers to the campus They encouraged students to ask questions about diversity and to sign a banner that read, "We support the Multicultural Resource Center."
The MRC was a welcoming place to Melinda Benavidez, Topeka freshman, when she came to the University this year.
"It was my home away from home," said Benavidez, the Hispanic American Leadership Organization's public relations chairwoman.
Minority enrollment at KU increased by 12 percent this year, according to 20th-day figures released last week. This report indicates a greater need for a new MRC, said Jose Interiano, Wichita sophomore and group president.
"It just gives us more of reason to fight for it," Interiano said.

Nuclear plant acid leak most extensive in U.S.
TOLEDO, Ohio — The government said yesterday it had found 10 violations at a nuclear plant where an acid
leak nearly ate through a 6-inch-thick steel reactor cap.
The plant's operator, FirstEnergy Corp., failed to take action to correct safety concerns and violated rules for operating the reactor, the report said.
The boric acid leak at the Davis-Besse plant was the most extensive corrosion ever found on a U.S. nuclear reactor and led to a nationwide review of all 69 similar plants. A second, smaller hole was found later at Davis-Besse.
Inspectors found the leak in March, during a maintenance shutdown at the plant near Toledo. The Nuclear Regulator Commission has said it should have been spotted as many as four years ago.
The latest report from the NRC inspectors said the violations included failure to remove large amounts of acid on the reactor head, which led to nozzle cracking, and failure to notice acid deposits on air coolers.
Stewart resigns from seat at Stock Exchange
NEW YORK.—Martha Stewart, under federal investigation on suspicion of insider trading, resigned yesterday from the board of directors of the New York Stock Exchange.
"It has been a great honor and privilege to sit on the board, but the rigors of my own very busy and demanding corporate life require my full attention." Stewart said in a letter to NYSE chairman and chief executive Dick Grasso.
The Justice Department is investigating Stewart's sale of nearly 4,000 shares of imClone Systems just before the stock plummeted last December on bad news about the company's highly touted cancer drug. She has denied any wrongdoing.
Stewart, who was a stockbroker before launching her own business, was one of 27.NYSE board members. Her term was to expire next year.

Inspiration Gospel Voices rehearses in the Military Science Building. The choir, which is always open to new members, has been on campus for 26 years.

NEWS
As about 25 members of the Inspirational Gospel Voices choir join hands, several students step forward with prayer requests.
It's nearing the end of their weekly Thursday night rehearsal in the Multicultural Resource Center. Over quiet keyboard music, members ask each other for support during the week in dealing with sickness, tests and travel.
Tasha Scott, Grandview, Mo., junior and president of the 55-member group, said the choir offered Christians a way to sing and minister on campus.
"For those of us who are used to that kind of religion and that kind of support, here, you get the opportunity for that." she said. "For us, it's a home away from home."
The group has been rehearing and ministering for 26 years but registered as an official student organization last year.
Renita Norman, Topeka
sophomore, has been singing with the group since last year, but really, her gospel roots go back much further.
Involvement in Inspirational Gospel Voices has provided her with a community she can relate to, she said.
Among Norman's family, it's rumored that her grandfather sang in a semi-professional gospel group, she said. Norman said she had been singing since she was 3 or 4.
"I sing all the time, especially in the car," she said. "People probably give me weird looks all the time."
By spending time together at weekly rehearsal members of the group become close friends.
Scott agreed.
"The choir is a way for people to keep in touch with themselves," she said. "When people go off to college, they often stray away from church because you don't have as much access to it. It's a way for people to maintain that link."

Israeli students give perspective

An unattended backpack may not look harmful, but to Avishai Ratsaki one such backpack contained a bomb that killed 11 of his fellow students at Hebrew University in Israel.
Ratski, along with Dani Abew and Kim Gordon spoke about life in Israel to about 50 students and members of the Lawrence community last night at 4057 Wescoe.
"You have to think and rethink every move you make just to keep yourself safe," said Ratski.
The three Israelis were all part of a program sponsored by KU Hillel called "Israel At Heart." The program aims to give American students a bigger picture of Israeli life than what was traditionally offered by the media.
Abelow said "Israel At Heurt" was coordinated through an academic liaison in Chicago, via the Israeli Consulate. The program is funded by a New York philanthropist.

"The way to honestly understand the situation is to meet people who have lived in the situation directly." Abelow said.
All three were 26-year-olds who had spent time in the Israeli military, which requires men and women to serve for three years beginning at age 18. Abelow said the purpose of their trip was to give American students a different perspective of Israel today.
The three shared some of their experiences in the military and as students in Israel, before taking questions from the audience. Some of the questions covered student and military life, the war
Kim Gordon speaks about a bomb going off in the bar she worked at in Israel while Dani Abelow and Avishai Ratsaki listen, Gordon, Abelow and Ratsaki were in Wescoe last night to talk about what it's like to be a student and live in Israel during the volatile conflict with the Palestinians.
on terror, the Iraq situation, and the Palestinian conflict.
All three said they hoped the ongoing Middle East conflict would soon be over, but they acknowledged that it was a difficult process.
Abelow said the situation was complicated because Israelis were no longer fighting just for their land but for their very existence.
Despite the media's portrayal of Israel as a dangerous, war-torn nation, all three encouraged Americans to visit Israel.
"One word: Come," said Rat
saki. "Trust me, you won't be disappointed."
Jay Lewis, executive director for KU Hillel, said the "Israel At Heart" program was important because it allowed students to get a larger perspective on life in Israel.
"So many people get their information about the Mideast conflict from CNN and the media that it makes it hard to get somebody else's direct opinion," Lewis said.

Speaker criticizes greek stereotypes in movies

beyond stereotypes.
The problem of blindly following stereotypical traditions in greek organizations was one of the main topics during a National Pan-Hellenic Council speech last night at the Ballroom in the Kansas Union.
Bryant Smith, director of Multicultural Affairs and International Student Services at Millikin University in Decatur, Ill., spoke to a group of 30 people about ways that greek organizations can grow
Smith used the movies School Daze and Animal House to speak about the stereotypes that traditionally white and black fraternities and sororites are associated with.
"White" fraternity and sorority images from Animal House were drinking and partying, not studying, Smith said.
Smith mentioned differences between the movies. For
In the movie School Daze, African-American fraternity life was portrayed in a negative light by showing hazing and violence.
instance, Animal House made John Belushi a hero; Spike Lee, however was banned from Morehouse College because of School Daze.
Smith said the movies created problems when it came to recruitment.
The movies send false images of college life to future students, he said.
"People watch those two movies, and feel they should be challenged to get into your chapter," Smith said. "You have a group of people who don't want to be recruited. They want to prove themselves to you."
Smith said that fraternities and sororities don't like the way the movies portray their organizations—but are often guilty of living up to the stereotypes.
He said a more active recruitment process would lead to more quality members and better promotion.
"If you don't want those images to determine what kind of members you get, the challenge is yours," Smith said. "Show them something else; show them the different side."

According to the KU Public Safety Office, there is no formal way of getting to Daisy Hill from outside the traffic pattern immediately following a basketball game.
Game traffic solutions leave residents frustrated
Living on Daisy Hill during basketball season has a number of distinct advantages. Convenient parking, a downhill walk, and not having to drive to the game are a few.
But for those who were not fortunate enough to have attended the evening basketball game there is one obvious disadvantage. traffic.
Jayhawker Towers, greek houses, libraries, architecture studios, computer labs and other campus buildings are also affected. Not only is parking atrocious during the game itself, but attempting to get to these areas after the game is impossible.
Although not all campus roads are affected following games, most are. All roads relevant to the dorms, excluding GSP/Corbin, become outgoing.
For roughly 30 minutes following games, most of the roads surrounding the fieldhouse are converted into outgoing roads to allow the sheer volume of traffic from the game to leave campus. This leaves those who live on or around Daisy Hill unable to get home.
KU receives more than its fair share of flak for the priority it places on sports over other University interests, and most
of the criticism is unwarranted. The University has benefited from athletics much more than it has suffered.
However, this is not to say that the system couldn't use improvements.
Officially, outside traffic is unable to get into the traffic pattern, periodically it seems that those who are persistent enough are able to find sympathizing officers and can to get to their destination. This is by no means an easy solution and in many cases many residents resign themselves to waiting it out.
A simpler solution should exist.
Traffic control out of the fieldhouse and stadium should be modified following games, but exceptions should be made for those who live in inaccessible areas.
Perhaps KU Public Safety Office could publicize an area where residents can present their parking pass and enter the traffic pattern so they can get back home in a reasonably timely manner. At the moment there is no easy solution nor is there any solution being publicly considered.
If KU wants to show its detractors that it does put academics above sports,it can start by giving students a way to get to their homes and study spaces after a game.

COMMENTARY.
Sara Zafar
opinion@hansan.com
Real life is complicated, and incorporating these expressions into our daily lives is not always easy. Nor is it easy to balance who we are and who we believe ourselves to be.
In all actuality, it is difficult to live in such a way that at the end of the day we have done everything possible to be happy while making others happy too, all while keeping track of school, jobs, personal and social lives.
Often things get messy, and the only thing to do is step back and figure out how to make sense of it all.
College is a unique experience somewhat outside the realm of the real world, a sort of bubble where events can take place seemingly out of time and reality.
For example, imagine yourself in a deceptively harmless situation among friends or neighbors, which unexpectedly takes a turn for the ridiculous or completely insane.
I only know about experiences of my own and of my friends, but I suspect the majority of college students can relate.
Anything from true blue eighth-grade sleepover material, (i.e., prank calls, silly string and truth or dare) to more risque events such as strip poker and drinking games gone hideously wrong.
While no people or animals are hurt during these events, everyone involved ends up a little dazed in the end and not quite sure what to do next.
Because there are no physical reminders of the events in question, the only proof that they happened at all is memory, and if things got really crazy, a few select photographs.
The aftershocks of these lascivious events linger in the minds of those involved long after the night in question has passed.
Now the only thing to figure out is where to go from here.
The solution lies in realizing the challenges life that we face every day. Attempting to disassociate from new behaviors and ideas you find yourself having is not the way to go.
We can't ever really escape reality, but we can figure out what that reality is.
Is a girl a lesbian because she has kissed another girl (The same question applies to guys)?
Is, ahem, exposing ourselves to complete strangers a common occurrence after one game of truth or dare or "I never?"
Are people instantly heavy drinkers because they overindulged at one party?
The obvious answer is no, but it is not always the easiest to accept.
People entering new situations realize things about themselves that they never knew before and find themselves questioning these new, crazy people they have "become."
They worry that they can no longer be the same person they were the night before because they acted in a certain way.
The truth is that who or what we are is up to us.
Maybe that crazy person who comes out occasionally really is your true self. More likely, we are a mix of the people we portray on different occasions.
At any rate, who we are is still our choice.
An easy answer to a difficult question, because making that choice is the hard part.
Zafar is a Wichita sophomore. She is undecided about her major.
Now is the time to speak up against war of contradictions
As educated citizens and students, we should not endorse the violence and racism inherent in the proposed armed aggression. While sustained engagement with global terrorism is important, confronting Iraq in war has broad implications and ramifications beyond opposing terrorism that are unacceptable.
The students of the University of Kansas should strongly oppose war against Iraq.
The war on Iraq and the sanctions against the people of Iraq are motivated by profit and politics.
The Bush administration justifies its position against Iraq under the guise of supporting democracy, freedom and security around the world. The reality is
that the war expands the empire of the United States — an empire that seeks to control money, resources, and people for corporate greed. And, because there are a lot of big companies invested and involved in the business of war and wartime products, war is profitable.
Furthermore, racial profiling and unjustified detainment of persons of color by the United States government are unacceptable by-products of opposing terrorism.

unjust and unconstitutional policies.
Consequently, the "war on terrorism" began as a fight against individuals and armed militias.
Other solutions have not been thoroughly explored to alleviate this problem.

Local hip-hop group set to celebrate CD release
DJ Not a DJ mixes live music studio effects
By Michael Vennard mvennard@kansan.com Kansan staff Writer
After five months of fine-tuning, Lawrence band DJ Not a DJ is prepared to impress listeners with its first homegrown full-length release. Deep Roots in Shallow Ground.
Project Groove will host the DJ Not a DJ CD release party tonight at The Pool Room, 925 Iowa St. Appearing with DJ Not a DJ are Iowa hip-hop group Bad Fathers and local DJ Marcel Tempest.
Selected from several months worth of live recordings and produced at home, Jerett Fulton, Lawrence resident, said Deep Roots in Shallow Ground synthesizes live, improvised instrumentation and technical studio effects.
Fulton plays guitar, percussion, turntables and runs an array of electronic effects that literally surround him during DJ Not a DJ live shows.
"All the songs that we came into the studio with were all developed live. For a year we played straight improvisation, then we went through hours and hours of tapes and we found exactly what we liked," said Fulton, one of the band's musicians.
Once in the studio that Fulton and co-producer Mikel Giffen call home, the improvised live tracks were developed further using the computer production program, Pro-Tools.
"We basically spent the past five months making an instrumental album sound like samples, loops and drum machine beats," said Fulton.
The band, which has been together for a year and a half, has Dash Frohahn Williamson, Lawrence resident, playing bass and keyboards along with some vocals on the new release. Bob Little, Lawrence resident, plays drums and percussion while Nate Holt, Kansas City, Mo., resident, plays keyboards and loops.
"Most of the samples we recorded live and then tweaked to sound like samples." said Williamson.
Fulton said the drum beats for the album were recorded live and then edited to sound like "old-school samples."
Fulton said that the final 73- minute recording included 12 tracks that flowed together like one seamless song.
Fulton said the DJ Not a DJ recording sounded like many types of sample heavy dance music but was all live instrumentation as opposed to canned samples, loops and drum machine beats.
"But that doesn't dictate how we play it live. They're still the same songs, but they'll be played differently." said Williamson concerning their live shows.
"People can like the album and they can like the show, but they're going to be different."
Edwin Morales, Manhattan sophomore, booked the band for its Project Groove appearance.
"They're known to go from down-tempo, relaxed breaks into a funkier house beat and then break down into an intense, spaced-out, atmospheric jungle set," said Morales.
"They bring the sound of a DJ and the build-up of a jam band. The crowds go nuts for the buildup." he said.
"All the songs that we came into the studio with were all developed live. For a year we played straight improvisation, then we went through hours and hours of tapes and we found exactly what we liked."
Jerett Fulton Lawrence resident
Fulton said DJ Not a DJ would begin preparation for its set at the Pool Room as soon as the band got back from its Thursday night gig in Iowa. The band plans to begin playing its set around 12 a.m. after the Bad Fathers and DJ Marcel Tempest.
With a new album in tow, DJ Not a DJ plans to tour heavily in order to convert as many new ears as possible.
"In the spring, we don't want to be in Lawrence at all. It's definitely the focus of all of our lives right now," said Fulton.
"This is all I do. I wake up and I'm booking our calendar, answering e-mail, doing press, finding some new site to add our audio to. If I'm not playing or in the studio, I'm in here trying to do something for us," said Fulton.
"We want to win people over with our shows like some of the bigger jam bands do," he said. "We want word of mouth to make it happen."

Second annual Open House expecting 20,000 attendees
"The intent of this is to have children feeling comfortable on a college campus," said Margey Frederick, director of visitor services and special events. "Then, hopefully, when it's time for them to be coming to college, they'll pick KU."

Organizers of the second annual event would like to draw about 20,000 people to campus to showcase what the University offers.
Visitors to the University of Kansas' Open House tomorrow can build their own Web sites, watch the University's version of Survivor, or learn the fate of the universe through an astronomy presentation.
Frederick said this year's events would be similar to last year's Open House, which drew about 15,000 visitors. She said the biggest change would be centralizing events on Jayhawk Boulevard to make it easier for visitors to attend.
"Some areas of the campus got huge crowds, and others were on the fringe," she said.
The Open House begins at 10
Wescoe Beach will be the main stage for the day's events, including a history presentation and performances by the Spirit Squad and several student groups.
An event in the Adams Alumni Center parking lot, the Tastes and Sounds of Lawrence, will offer free food and local music after the Hispanic Heritage Month parade at 2 p.m.
"It's an opportunity to showcase what we do to people we don't normally reach," said Charla Jenkins, director of public relations for University Theatre. Jenkins was impressed by the enthusiasm she saw from visitors last year.
Frederick said several of last year's biggest draws came from University Theatre, which offered a silent auction of theater props and costumes, and CyberJay, a virtual reality Jayhawk that interacted with visitors. Both events will be offered again this year.
Holly Harmison, Overland Park freshman, said a friend of hers would be performing as a dancer at the Open House. She said the event would be a good recruitment tool for the University and a good way to showcase

Weekend breaks offer reality trips

Starla Titus has endured homelessness before — at least, for two days.
Titus, Newton junior, is a weekend-breaks coordinator for Alternative Breaks, Inc., an organization at the University of Kansas that sends students on trips to do volunteer work during weekend and holiday vacations.
But two days were enough to convince her that homelessness was not easy, and the experience gave her a new outlook on poverty.
Her first alternative break was to Washington, D.C., in 2001. Titus and 10 other volunteers spent the first two days of the trip
without a place to stay as a learning experience. The group of students stayed awake for nearly the entire two days and rested on benches when they could.
Titus said she never imagined the trip would affect her the way it did.
"It was definitely a life-changing experience," she said.
Titus' experience was similar to those of other Alternative Breaks coordinators and site leaders who said the program had given them a new reason to look forward to vacations from school
This weekend, nine students will head to The Great Plains Earth Institute in Wichita for the second alternative weekend break of the semester.
The students will volunteer at

the institute's community garden that feeds the poor by helping them buy and tend to plots of land.
Alternative Breaks offer 15 free volunteer trips throughout the year.
Titus said alternative breaks were a way for students to learn more about civic education and duty.
Jessi Mester, Topeka senior and co-coordinator for the program, said Alternative Breaks
During fall break, Oct.18 to 20 volunteers will help with repairs at the Women's Crisis Center and the Wichita Area Sexual Assault Center.
Mester said she walked away from the experience thinking that she could get involved with Alternative Breaks.

Mester made her first trip her sophomore year to volunteer for Project Lazarus in New Orleans. The program helped treat about 24 people suffering from AIDS.

Waco: One whack town
Wacko, Texas — Howdy y'all!
I'm here in this treasure of a Texas town, getting ready for Saturday's slowdown — where the winner automatically becomes the second-worst loser in the Big 12.
Rather than talk about which football team will be the league's doormat or the rich pigskin tradition of either university
—hey the two schools (Question: Is Baylor a school or a four-year Baptist retreat?) are a combined 43-99 since the Big 12's inceptin in 1996 —I'd rather tour dis her town. Fah y'all mathematicians down there in the Lame Bar State (Prohibition sucks) that wus wondur, dat'a the .303 winning percentage. (Sorry, mom and pops Sam couldnafn for that der private educaton yee-all halves).
Of course our mighty Jayhawks — yeah, yeah the mythical bird — have been just as much at fault as your losers, Da Bears. Whens exactly was the last time you saw a bear there? Green at that? (Wait cowboy, I'm not talking the Cameron Park Zoo, although I hear the pansy collection is quite beautiful this time of year.)
But at least our fine location here in Lawrence decided a long time ago it didn't want to be the armpit of the Big 12. And unfortunately I am factoring in Ames-nothing, Iowa; Still-no-water, Okla; and the Sunflower State's very own ManHappin
just an hour to the west, but light years away from our Abercrombie and Fitch fall fashion free-for-all, here in "Larry."
I know you were drugged into the Big 12, by those dug bullies from University of Texas. Who wouldn't want to be the sophisticate of the Southwestern Conference?
Now in reading your ancient folklore, I red that the Waco Indians were a branch of the Wichita.
Let me get this rite: You're original settlers took notes from the (wichi)TA?
That's gatt to be you guys' first misteak.
We've all seen Planes, Trains and Automobiles and what yee-all shod've thunk was dadgum nothn' ever good comes out of Wichita, exceps plains and a good case of the shakes.
What happened to those great pioneers that drove dem horses threw "That whole other country?"
Looks like yee'll found the lest watr hole at dee troph.
Did them just build Dallas, Hugeston and San Antone and stopp. Heck well just throw up a few of these der sod houses and call it Whack-O.
Speaking of watering holes, you guys can drink, right?
Because a couple of my Kansanonians were thinking of inhabiting one of those der ladies clubs. C'mon Texas, is like the porn capitul of the worrld, rih?
Oops, you's so touchy subject, sorry, I forget your, Baylorites can't *bear* it.
Next time instead of whening them dang T-shirts with yours frets name on it, you can, pretend to be another frat so you can get in the "Magazine," wink, wink—vet not lose your beverage privileges.
After sippn' on that Shirley Temple, I can't wait for whass nex?
A quick scant across dee suspension bridge might be a whooot! Or maybe a toor of the Dr. Pepper Museum, I bets you can't buy a flamn one.
Hey, but Waco's had tough times, and tragedy's never cool.
Both our schools have seen that with the higher learning loss of Waco's very own Mario Kinsey — you might 'member him as dee strtn' quartback at Kansas before the darn pizzas accident.
Well, heres to hoping I can find a shanty to sleep in. Plus you guys won't have a chunc to round up the posse for me til in the morning.
Yeah, I'm all for the "Don't mess with Texas," thing, ...unless.

Coming off a victory
Jayhawks face pressure of defeating Baylor after defeating Tulsa
By John Domoney
jdomoney@kansan.com
Kansas sportswriter
Saturday the Kansas football team was faced with the pressure of extending the nation's longest losing streak.
The Jayhawks beat the pressure and the University of Tulsa, too.
The reward for continuing Tulsa's losing streak comes this weekend in the form of Baylor University, a team burdened with another type of losing streak.
The Bears have lost 29 straight Big 12 Conference games, dating back to 1998 when they beat the Jayhawks 31-24 in Waco, Texas.
All of the pressure that comes with playing games against teams with losing streaks has Kansas coach Mark Mangino trying to keep his team focused on the game and not the numbers.
"We went down to play Tulsa this week on its home field, and unfortunately that team has a losing streak that it would not like to have, and we found it to be a very dangerous team." Mangino said at Tuesday's press conference. "Now we'll play a Baylor team that we think really is working hard and fighting to get a conference win."
Kansas and Baylor both need the victory this weekend to even their Big 12 records to 1-1. The Jayhawks lost their Big 12 opener to Iowa State 45-5

Road win may be tough to find
It's been nearly four years since Baylor University beat Kansas 31-24 in Waco, Texas, and Baylor hasn't won a Big 12 game since.
The Bears will try to end the 29-game losing streak when the Jayhawks return to Waco for the first time since 1998. The Bears and the Jayhawks last met in 1999 when Kansas thrashed Baylor 45-10 at home.
The Bears are putting together another streak at home in Floyd Casey Stadium. The Bears have won their last three games at Floyd. They also have won three of five games against the Jay-hawks.
But if the Bears are looking at the Jayhawks as an easy kill, coach Mark Mangino hasn't found any evidence.
Golden's 12 points per game ranks second in the Big 12 and fifth in the nation. He set the new Baylor record and tied the Big 12 mark for most touchdowns in a game with six against
No doubt Mangino and staff have also been keeping an eye on junior running back Jonathan Golden.
Samford on Sept. 7.
Another Bear being watched is junior linebacker John Garrett. In fact, Garrett is on a watchlist for the Butkus Award, given annually to the nation's top linebacker. He has accounted for a team-best 27 tackles, including five for a loss, this season.
Along with Golden and Garrett, the Jayhawks face another test — the road.
Kansas' last road win was also Baylor's latest victim, they didn't play last weekend. The Jayhawks hung on to defeat Tulsa 43-33 last week, and the Bears beat Tulsa 37-25 the week before.
They will play their fourth road game out of six this season. Mangino said he thought the Jayhawk players were learning from the experience.
"We feel like our kids are starting to understand what it takes to be successful and to play well out on the road," Mangino said.

Fans celebrated Kansas' first road victory of the year Saturday when the Jayhawks beat the University of Tulsa Golden Hurricane 43-33. The Jayhawks will be in Waco, Texas, tomorrow to try for their second road victory against the Baylor Bears.
Columnist picks Bears over 'Hawks
When the sports staff of The University Daily Kansan called and suggested that we exchange columns in advance of the Baylor-Kansas showdown, it sounded like a great idea. A little harmless trash talking between friendly Big 12 foes never hurt anybody.
SPORTS
Actually, my first reaction was, "How can two such pathetic football programs engage in trash talk with a straight face?" What would we say to each other? "My team's more inept than yours is!?"
With that in mind, I offer the following:

Baylor needs the
Baylor needs the win much more than Kansas does. Baylor coach Kevin Steele needs it much, much more than Kansas coach Mark Mangino. The Bears have lost 29 straight Big 12 games. Steele is 0-24 against the Big 12 during his tenure here. Baylor's all-time Big 12 record is only 3-45. Kansas, with 12 wins in Big 12 competition, has four times as many wins. By the way, the Bears' last conference win was a 31-24 win against — you guessed it — Kansas on Oct. 10, 1998, in Waco, Texas.
As a practical observation when comparing mascots, a bear would certainly annihilate a Jayhawk—not that I have a clue what a Jayhawk is. Judging by the mascot images I've seen and the territory that I assume it inhabits, it looks like some sort of demented prairie chicken.
If statistics mean anything, Kansas is the worst football team in the Big 12. The Jayhawks rank last in both total offense and defense. On the other hand, Baylor ranks last in punting, pass defense efficiency and turnover margin. On second thought, let's leave stats out of it before it depresses both sides.
Now, to the coaches. Mangino certainly strikes more of a physically imposing figure than Kevin Steele. Mangino is also ahead of Steele in disrupting high school football games. Steele likes to recruit high school players; Mangino likes to cause a fracas with the officials. Mangino also leads Steele in the category of running off players and coaches in less than a year on the job.
Steele, however, leads the world at inspiring ex-Baylor football players and alumni to purchase banners that are flown over Floyd Casey Stadium on game day calling for the removal of both Steele and athletic director Tom Stanton. If you like, we can point the planes north. They move slowly, so by the time they reach Kansas, Mangino could also be 0-for-the-Big 12 in his third season.
As for common opponents, Baylor beat Tulsa, powerhouse that it is, by 12 points and never trailed in the game. Kansas fell behind early and was able to rally to only a 10-point victory.
Kansas has almost twice as many students as Baylor: 27,000 to 14,000. Because Baylor has played in twice as many bowl games as Kansas, 16 to eight, it's obvious that we accomplish more with less. I haven't checked test scores,

Volleyball looks to snap another losing streak
By Jason Hwang
jhwang@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas volleyball squad (12-1, 3-1 Big 12) resumes its conference season on the road against Texas (11-3, 3-2) 7 p.m. tomorrow.
In six visits to the Gregory Gym, Kansas has never won in Austin, Texas. The Jayhawks have already ended one long road losing streak to a Big 12 team. Kansas won in five games against Colorado on the road on Sept. 25, the team's
first victory at Boulder, Colo.
Last season Kansas split its two matches with Texas, beating the team for the first time Nov. 17 in four games.
"I don't think our losing streak to them is on the back of our minds," said senior defensive specialist Jennifer Kraft.
Kansas will rely on its potent middle blockers, freshman Josiane Lima and sophomore Ashley Michaels. Lima is fourth in the conference with 4.08 kills per game and third with 5.16 points per game. Michaela leads the Big 12 with a 444 hitting percentage. She is fifth in the
conference with 1.16 blocks per game.
"Texas is one of the most physically talented teams we're going to see," said coach Ray Bechard.
Texas is on a three-game conference winning streak, sweeping Oklahoma, Kansas State and Baylor. The Longhorns are led by sophomore outside hitter Mira Topic, who was placed on last year's all Big 12 team.
Junior outside hitter Abbie Jacobson is questionable for the match against Texas. Jacobson pulled her left hamstring Wednesday in a game against the University of Missouri-Kansas City. The win came on the Jayhawks' final home game of the season.
"Beating them on our Senior Night was awesome, and I think we're pretty fired up to do it again on their court." Topic averages 4.74 kills per game, which is good enough to be second in the Big 12. Sophomore middle blockers Bethany Howden and Kathy Hahn both record 3.5 kills per game.

Rowers reach out,teach kids
By Jeremy Krashin

Kansan sportswinter
Tomorrow morning, before many University of Kansas students are out of bed, the KU Rowing team will be teaming up with the Big Brothers-Big Sisters of Douglas County for some learning and fun.
"We want to introduce them to the sport," said senior Erin Harrington, who worked with the organization to help organize the program.
The team will go over basic rowing techniques and teach the children about the boats. It will also take them for a ride in the boats, seating a child every other person.
"Our coach wanted us to become more involved in the community." Harrington said. "I thought we could do something with kids, because it will be fun for them and for us."
"Sometimes we get strange ideas from the community, but this one is right on target," she said. "It will expose them to things they normally do not get to do, including a boat ride on the river."
Sara Randolph, Big Brothers-Big Sisters resource development director, said she thought the program was a great idea for the children.
Randolph said the children were generally from single parent families, had drug- or alcohol-abusing parents, came from a lower economic background, or have had problems in school. Many of their referrals come from elementary school guidance counselors.
The children range from 5 to 17 years old, but
"Our coach wanted us to become more involved in the community.I thought we could do something with kids, because it will be fun for them and for us."

Senior Kansas soccer player
most of the participants are in elementary school or junior high school.
The organization hosts a program called "Big for a Day." a day when community organizations or sports teams in the Lawrence area can organize an activity for the children who are not matched with any adults.
The organization will be recruiting on campus this semester.
Volunteer orientation meetings for anyone who wants to help are on Tuesdays at 5:15 p.m. and Wednesdays at noon at the Charlton Manley Building. 211 E. Eighth St.
However, the program is not fully stocked with adult volunteers.
"We are really trying to reach college males." Randolph said. "That's where our biggest shortage is for volunteers."
"We are all really excited about it." Harrington said. "Who doesn't love little kids?"

Team to take on Bears, Red Raiders
After sending a statement to the Big 12 conference last weekend, the Kansas soccer team heads into Texas this weekend to play Baylor and Texas Tech.
Kansas knocked off Colorado last weekend 5-1, then kept its hot play going as they tied No. 18 Nebraska in front of a record crowd of 861 fans.
The team takes its 1-0-1 conference record into Waco, Texas, for a showdown with Baylor at 4 p.m. today. Baylor currently has a record of 6-4-0 but a conference mark of 0-2 after dropping a pair of games last weekend to Oklahoma and Oklahoma State. The Bears are led by sophomore forward Kristin Ruef, who has a team-leading four goals and nine points.
After the game against Baylor, Kansas will pack up and travel to Lubbock, Texas, to face the Red Raiders, who have struggled to a 2-8-0 record. Like Baylor, Texas Tech dropped its first two conference games to Oklahoma and Oklahoma State.
With five starts Red Raiders goalkeeper Beth Lippert has racked up 35 saves and has a goals-against average of 2.50. Junior forward Catie Arsenault leads the team with two goals.
Tanya Sena handles the goalkeeping duties for Baylor and has a solid 1.19 goals against average and a record of 5-3.
For the sixth consecutive week, the Jayhawks were ranked in Soccerbuzz.com's Central Region rankings. After five weeks at No.10, the Jayhawks moved up to No.8 this week. Also, for the first time this season the Jayhawks received votes for the national polls.

I like how in Tuesday's paper in the sports section, they had a picture of Johnny Beck kicking a field goal against Colorado last season, however there were some Texas Tech players in the background on the sidelines. Now, what were Texas Tech players doing at a KU/Colorado game in Colorado? Interesting.

How can you really expect athletes in college to find the time to play a sport and get a job? Being an athlete is just as time consuming as having a job. So why shouldn't they get paid, because they need food, clothes, gas and gifts for their girls just like the rest of you boys. So don't hate on them.

SWIMMING AND DIVING Swimming and diving host intrasquad race
The team will be broken up into two squads, the crimson and the blue. Coach Clark Campbell is excited to see how his team competes in a college dual format.
The University of Kansas swimming and diving teams will host an intrasquad race at 6 tonight at Robinson Natatorium.
"We will have a few wrinkles in the system by replacing the 200 IM with the 400 IM," Campbell said. "By doing that, it will help me see how our 400 IM swimmers are doing up to this point."
the scrimmage is preparation for the Big 12 Relays, which will be held Oct. 11 in Lincoln, Neb. There, the team will compete against five other conference opponents. The team finished third last year.

Bigger meet to test cross country team
By Justin Schmidt
jschmidt@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
The undefeated Kansas men's and women's cross country teams run Saturday at the Oklahoma State University Cowboy Cross Country Jamboree in Stillwater, Okla.
The Jamboree will be the biggest meet Kansas has run in this season with 23 other teams competing. The Bob Timmons Invitational and the Wildcat Invitational had only four and five teams.
"We will be able to see how we stack up against OSU and some of the other Big 12 schools there," said assistant coach Doug Clark.
Kansas, Oklahoma and host Oklahoma State will represent the Big 12. Several teams from the NCAA National Cross Country
Coaches poll will be running at the Jamboree. Arkansas (2) Georgetown (8). Butler County Community College (12). New Mexico (27) and Oklahoma State (28) are the ranked teams in the men's race. Georgetown (12). Arkansas (14) and Southwest Missouri State (29) will be in the women's race.
Jenna Bimbi, freshman, is not quite sure what to expect during her first trip to the Jamboree. Bimbi finished third for Kansas and sevent overall at the Wildcat Invitational. She said many of the juniors and seniors had helped the younger runners prepare.
"I think it will be a shock to the freshman." Bimbi said. "But it should help us understand what other big meets will be like."

For Kansas to defeat the Bears, Mangino has stressed that his team needs more consistency on both sides of the ball.
on Aug. 31
The Jayhawk defense has been prone to breakdowns through the first five games, causing Kansas to rank as the worst defense in the Big 12.
The defense held the Hurricane offense in check through three quarters Saturday, but the Jayhawk defenders were not happy with their fourth-quarter letdown, which allowed Tulsa 14 points.
"Well, we're upset because at the end of the game we didn't do what we wanted to do, but we've been practicing real hard this week," said Jake Letourneau, senior strong safety, after practice Wednesday.
The Kansas offense is coming off its most productive performance of the season after scoring all of its 43 points in the second and third quarters against Tulsa.
Bill Whittemore, junior quarterback, ran 395 total yards against the Golden Hurricane, and he completed passes to seven Jayhawk receivers for the third time this season.
Whittemore has also shown an ability to run with the ball after he amassed 177 rushing yards against Tulsa.
Mangino said Whittemore was quickly developing into the type of quarterback he wanted to run the Kansas offense.
"In our offense we wanted a quarterback that could be a straight drop-back passer, have

the mobility to flush the pocket and still get the ball down field and run a little bit of option," Mangino said.
Saturday's game might come down to who has the better running game.
The threat of rain tomorrow in Waco concerns Kansas because of Hurricane Lili approaching the Gulf Coast.
The Jayhawks have prepared themselves for wet conditions, practicing in the rain this week.
Mangino said the team must be prepared to run and throw the ball in bad weather.
Kansas also knows that Baylor has circled this game as an opportunity to break its Big 12 losing streak.
Although Mangino admits he has tried to find motivating locker room material for Kansas, he said he would treat the game like any other.
"We just feel like it's an important game for us because it's another step in the direction that we want to go and probably for no other reason than that," Mangino said.

but choosing to live in Kansas over Texas tells me all I need to know about your student body.
Both teams won only three games last year, and this Saturday is the only opportunity Baylor or Kansas has for a conference victory this season. While both coaches know that and try to play it down as just another game, things could get ugly if Baylor loses. The fans may storm the field, not to tear down any goal posts, but to
tear down Kevin Steele.
I just don't see it happening, though. Baylor is a four-point favorite on its home field. The Bears have a much better defense than the Jayhawks and if they can stop giving the ball away on offense, Baylor should easily win this game by double digits. With the simple swipe of a Bear paw, the demented prairie chickens will be sent flying back to the land of Dorothy and Toto.
Sic 'em Bears!

Prosecutors bothered by script
The Associated Press
NORWALK, Conn. — Prosecutors who won a murder conviction against Kennedy cousin Michael Skakel are upset about a planned movie they say gives undue credit to Mark Fuhrman, the former Los Angeles police detective who wrote a book about the case.
Fuhrman, known for his role in the O.J. Simpson murder trial, wrote Murder in Greenwich, the only book on the case to allege Skakel murdered Martha Moxley in 1975.
Skakel, a nephew of Ethel Kennedy, Robert F. Kennedy's wife, was convicted in June of beating Moxley to death with a golf club when they were 15-year-old neighbors in wealthy Greenwich. Now 42, he was sentenced to 20 years to life in prison.
Fuhrman's book is being made into a two-hour movie to air Nov
15 on USA Network. Christopher Meloni, who stars in the NBC series Law and Order. SVU and HBO's Oz. plays Fuwhrman.
Prosecutor Jonathan Benedict says a draft of the script wrongly suggests Fuhrman's book prompted Skakel's prosecution.
"It implies that he was, if not responsible, certainly greatly influential in the decision to bring about a prosecution." Benedict said.
That assertion is "demeaning to the entire division of criminal justice in Connecticut." Benedict said.
"The train was out of the station and way down the tracks before that book ever came out," Benedict said. "This is a guy who was trying to jump on a train that already left the station."
The script notes Connecticut authorities convened a grand jury to investigate the murder a month after Fahrman's book was published in May 1998.
Benedict said he decided to seek a grand jury investigation in January 1998 when he took over the case, but authorities were awaiting results of forensic tests.
Fuhrman pleaded no contest to perjury after being accused during the Simpson trial of lying about his use of racial slurs.
He said he was not claiming sole credit for Skakel's prosecution, but uncovered evidence in the case, including a book proposal by Skakel, that was a key part of the trial.
"I think it certainly put the pressure on Connecticut to do something," Fuhrman said.
Benedict strongly disagreed, saying authorities already had the book proposal.
"Every piece of information he had we had months in advance of the book coming out," Benedict said.

Crouch considering return to pro football
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — Heisman Trophy winner Eric Crouch, who quit the St. Louis Rams three weeks ago, said yesterday he would consider returning to professional football if he could play quarterback.
The Rams drafted the former Nebraska quarterback last spring as a wide receiver.
"If I play again I'd definitely say it would be as a quarterback," Crouch said. "My whole life I've been a quarterback. I've molded myself that way."
game and seeing no regularseason action. Crouch said his decision was based primarily on lingering injuries, not because he was turned into a wide receiver.
Crouch, 23, said he had a serious thigh bruise and other nagging problems, including wear and tear on an ankle that will require surgery next week.
"I need to get away from it a little bit to get my health back," he said. "It's going to be a goal of mine to get back in shape."
Crouch said he had no timeline for a return to professional football, but he said it would only be after he was healthy.

Columnist takes on a St. Louis trio

Doyle Murphy
dmurphy@kansan.com
I knew it. There is a conspiracy against me. A household of St. Louis transplants has been plotting against me. Two roommates, juniors Matt Wilson and Nathan Winters are on the panel today and a third Tom Dye, junior, is a "Kick the Kansan" alum. This must be the single greatest assemblage of football knowledge in the free world. Three people from the same city, from the same high school, living in the same house,
all beat me. Can you believe it? I haven't checked these odds against those of say being struck by lightning, but I'm pretty sure you can all see the similarities.
Wilson cleverly claimed his motives and his crew's were entirely innocent.
"We all want to get the T-shirts," he said.
T-shirts, my eye. These guys are out to get me.
Don't worry sports fans, I'm forming an alliance of my own. I've teamed with Kansan football writer John Domoney for another week of choosing the right picks. I've also unveiled a secret weapon — a little game I like to call La Salle at Catholic. That's right, La Salle at Catholic. How many people even know where Catholic is? Try plugging that one into your selection
"Most of all I go gut instinct, except when you guys throw in stuff like La Salle at Catholic."I tried looking it up on ESPN, but they didn't even have Catholic."

Winters admitted he was having a little difficulty reacting to the weapon.
said. "I tried looking it up on ESPN, but they didn't even have Catholic."
Caught in the crossfire between sportswriters and Rams mourners is a pair of independent college football forecasters. Brent Fry, Lenexa junior, and Peter Gogol, Cranston, R.I., junior, both posted impressive 9-2 records last week.
It's very possible that these two are innocent bystanders, but with records like theirs, I would never discount the possibility of the St. Louis Axis of Evil's influence.

Ah, everything is going according to plan.

KU hosts minority greeks
Conference focuses on communication, minority images
By Todd Rapp
trapp@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
The National Black Greek Leadership Conference was held Friday and Saturday at the University of Kansas. The focus was on improving communication between all greek organizations.
About 350 students and their advisers from 16 states converged in the Kansas Union for the conference.
The conference was founded in 1986
by Robert Page, KU's current director of the Office of Multicultural Affairs. It was designed with two goals in mind: to network with other chapters around the nation and discuss issues that face them at predominately white campuses.
This year was different than years past because Latino/Latina Greek Letter Organizations also attended the conference, said Juan Izaguirre, graduate assistant at the Multicultural Resource Center and a coordinator for the event.
Black and Latino/Latina greek organizations discussed problems associated with existing on mostly-white campuses.
my Brother's Keeper," was valuable because it focused on the images of Latino and African-American men.
"African-American, Latino men get
stereotyped as being lazy or intimidating. We need to take on the aspect of educated men, promote ourselves in an educated fashion," he said.
Izaguirre said communication was the main problem minority greeks faced on predominantly white campuses. He said at KU, Latino and African-American organizations needed to work on building better relationships with each other.

For the second year in a row, current, former and future generations of Jayhawks descended on Jayhawk Boulevard for a campus-wide Open House.
Campus buildings were opened from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday for presentations and exhibitions of student work. Officials estimated 22,500 current and prospective students, alumni and Lawrence community members attended the day-long event, an increase from about 20,000 attendees last year.
Balloons and information booths lined the sidewalks along Jayhawk Boulevard, where this year's events were centered.
Amanda Cook, Bloomfield, Neb., graduate student, manned the Multicultural Resource Center
"I want to be a cheerleader at KU and a doctor."
"I want to be a cheerleader at KU and a doctor,"Armstrong said.
Her cousin, Brianne Martin, 5, had her face painted — a tulip in pink and green, her two favorite colors. Both said they wanted to come to the University when they grew up.
For Rob Garner, a senior at Kinsley High School, a future at the University is not as far away. He attended Open House with his principal, Jack Waugh, and several classmates to see if the University was right for him.
"I just think it's a great campus," Waugh said. "You couldn't have a better day, it's easy to get around, and everybody's been

booth, which featured flags of every country from which KU international students come.
"I think it's a great way to get the community involved in campus," she said of the day's events.
Lawrence resident Ophelia Armstrong, 10, ate a hot dog and took in a show at Wescoe Beach with her family. With a Jayhawk temporary tattoo freshly positioned on her left cheek, she said her favorite part of the day had been eating cotton candy in front of the Kansas Union and having her picture taken in the Jayhawk's nest.
real friendly."
He said Open House presented a unique opportunity for his students to catch a glimpse into their futures.
"There are all kinds of different things they're interested in, so we pick an
area and go from there," Waugh said.
Margey Frederick, director of visitor services and special events, said the event cost about $40,000 to put on and was financed almost entirely from donations and private funding.
She said the Open House helped reassure the community that budget cuts have not curbed enthusiasm for the University.
"We get the perception that maybe things aren't going well, or maybe something's wrong with the University," Frederick said. "I haven't found that. You just had to look on the smiles on the faces."

Spring's 2.89 grade point average was the highest posted by student athletes at the University of Kansas in 15 years.
The KU Athletics Department measures its success off the field using three standards grade point average, student athlete development and graduation rates.
Student athletes reflected improvement through both GPAs and graduation rates last year.
According to department statistics, a higher spring GPA is common. Since KU began compiling team GPAs in 1986, student athletes have earned a higher GPA in the spring semester than in the fall, with one exception: the overall GPA was 2.71 during both semesters in the 1993-1994 school year.
Since athlete GPAs have been tracked, the football GPA has been higher in the spring than in the fall, and the baseball team has posted a higher GPA in the fall than the spring every year except 1989-1990. Most teams earned a higher GPA in the offseason.
Student-athlete graduation rates also improved last year.
Every year the NCAA compiles a report comparing students to student athletes. The study tracks scholarship freshman athletes to see whether they graduate within six years.
Of the 1995-1996 incoming freshman class, 56 percent of those students have graduated, compared to 62 percent of student-athletes. The study counted transfer students as students who did not graduate. KU ranks fifth among Big 12 Conference schools for student-athlete graduation rates.
Paul Buskirk, associate athletics director for student support services, monitors the academic achievements of student athletes. When a problem arises, Buskirk steps in.
"I can't make a souffle out of lemons," he said. "But we can increase tutoring time or meetings with professors."
Buskirk, who is responsible for student-athlete development, said the department was proactive at the beginning of each semester to prevent problems from occurring with students' school work. The department spends

Genevieve Gordon, co-director of homecoming and Wichita junior, said the committee's goal was to make homecoming at the University of Kansas bigger and better. She said the committee had made significant changes this year, but creating a traditional spirit-filled, week-long event would take time.
Kansas kicks off against Colorado for this year's Saturday homecoming game, but 12 students have been working since February to make this year's homecoming more than just a game.
"I think homecoming at KU is definitely going to take a few years of nurturing." she said.
Gordon said students would see the biggest changes this year as a result of a

Instead of waiting tables or scanning groceries, Erica Koop kneads flesh between her fingers.
The Ulysses freshman became a certified massage therapist in March after taking classes on the weekends throughout her senior year in high school to master the practice. She charges $36 for students and $40 for everyone else for a one-hour massage.

CAMPUS Blood drive exceeds daily goal of 100 pints
The University of Kansas Blood Drive exceeded its goals every day last week.
Ben Kirby, Interfraternity Council Vice President for philanthropy and community service,said each donation location wanted to collect at least 100 pints of blood daily. Instead, each location had 120 to 140 pints donated by the end of every collection time.
Kirby attributes the success of this semester's blood drive to good publicity and good weather.

Judge allows photos in Wichita murder case
WICHITA—A judge ruled that jurors could see gruesome crime scene and autopsy photos in the multiple murder trial of Jonathan and Reginald Carr.
The hearing was designed to give defense attorneys a chance to object.
The judge gave an hour apiece to the prosecution and each brother's defense team to present their opening arguments today. He told them jurors would also be allowed to take notes during the trial.
Ron Evans, attorney for 22-year-old Jonathan Carr, objected to the introduction of many crime scene and autopsy photos, saying they were gruesome. John Val Wachtel, attorney for 24-year-old Reginald Carr, joined in the objections.
The defense attorneys also wanted to exclude photos of their clients being taken into jail and what they called prejudicial photos showing the victims while they were alive. They also objected to including a photo of a dog killed the night of the attacks.
The Carrs are facing a combined 113 counts including capital murder, kidnapping, robbery, burglary, rape and criminal sodomy, among other crimes.

Bush gaining support from Congress for war
WASHINGTON — Congressional leaders said yesterday a resolution authorizing war against Iraq, expected to pass with little dissent, would strengthen the U.S. hand at the United Nations and increase pressure on Saddam Hussein to disarm.
President Bush, after a weekend in Maine, returned to the White House and prepared to address the nation Monday night from Cincinnati.
A leading moderate Democrat suggested Bush was winning broad Democratic support for reasons of domestic politics as well as concerns about Iraq's weapons of mass destruction.
Many Democrats opposed similar legislation that authorized the Persian Gulf War waged by Bush's father in 1991.
Officials not ready to call explosion attack
WORLD
SAN'A, Yemen—An explosion and fire engulfed a French oil tanker yesterday off the coast of Yemen, and the tanker owner said a small boat struck the vessel in a "deliberate attack."
Yemeni officials, however, said there was no indication the tanker was attacked and that the fire was caused by an oil leak. French officials said it was still too early to say if the explosion was an act of terrorism.
France will quickly send investigators to Yemen, President Jacques Chirac's office said after Chirac spoke by phone with Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh.

Disease difficult to detect; affects 25 percent of women
By Lindsay Hanson
lhanson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Lori Bell hadn't experienced pelvic pain nearly this powerful since enduring child labor four years ago.
But even when a doctor at Watkins Memorial Health Center prescribed in September birth control pills to alleviate the pain, it kept getting worse for Bell, a 24-year-old Pittsburgh freshman.
It was the first week of September when the painful sensation in her abdomen became impossible to ignore. Bell had no idea she had been suffering for the past few months from endometriosis, the presence of uteral lining outside the uterus. Endometriosis occurs in an estimated 25 percent of women, many of them collegeage, said Henry Buck Jr., Watkins director of gynecology.

Fallopian tube Ovary Uterosecral ligament Endometrial implants Literus Endometrial implants Rectum Bladder
He said the figure, compiled several years ago from autopsy findings of female crash victims, suggested that endometriosis went undiagnosed in many women and they might not show symptoms. He said the disease brought what patients call unbearable pain and, in some cases, resulted in infertility.
Bell said Watkins professionals
did not detect her condition when she sought their help.
Endometriosis explained
What Bell didn't know is that endometriosis is impossible to diagnose without a procedure called laparoscopy, in which the surgeon inserts a camera through the belly button to examine the uterus. The cystic-like deposits of endometriosis do not appear in CT scans or ultrasound.
"It's a very enigmatic disease," he said.
Laparoscopy is not the first line of treatment used. Doctors are hesitant to have a surgical procedure without first prescribing birth control pills, Buck said.
Buck said he prescribed birth control pills to partially inhibit the production of uteral lining. In more extreme cases, he said he prescribed Lupron, which is a drug that stops virtually all ovarian activity. The only permanent cure for the disease is extracting the uterus, fallopian tubes and ovaries completely, but that is only done in the most extreme cases.
In February, Bell miscarried a child, but she said she had not experienced bouts of endometriosis before the miscarriage. She said the emergency room doctor at the hospital alluded to the miscarriage as a possible cause of Bell's case of
Endometriosis is the presence of uteral lining outside the uterus. Samson's Theory of Endometriosis Pathogenesis says it occurs inexplicably when the lining sheds in a backward flow outside the fallopian tubes and forms deposits — called implants — outside the uterus. When the woman's body begins its next menstrual cycle, the living cells in the endometrial implants grow normally. At the end of the cycle, the endometriosis deposits attempt to shed themselves like normal uteral lining. Instead of functioning properly, the endometriosis deposits bleed internally and cause the woman pain.
endometriosis, but any woman who menstruates could develop endometriosis.
Buck said no concrete explanation for the disease existed, but
according to one theory about its development, it is not genetic and occurs inexplicably.
Samson's Theory of Endometriosis pathogenesis
defines endometriosis as the shedding of uteral lining in a backward flow, or a retrograde menstruation outside the fallopian tubes that forms deposits outside the uterus.
Most of the misdirected cells are dead, but the few live cells can cause problems. At the beginning of the woman's next menstrual cycle, when the body boosts estrogen flow, the remaining live cells will grow like normal uteral lining tissue, he said.
"It's kind of like planting seeds," Buck said. "If Samson's Theory is right, probably all women are going to spill a little bit out during the time of the period."
At the same time, as the woman's menstrual flow begins, the strayed lining attempts to shed itself as well. This results in internal bleeding and severe pain, Buck said.
Unlike Buck, Susan McDaneld, nurse practitioner for the family planning sexually transmitted disease program at the Lawrence-Douglas County Health Department, said she checked potential endometriosis patients for family history of the disease.
"Endometriosis sometimes does seem to be something you see in a number of family members,"she said.
McDaneld said the health department provides family planning services such as Pap tests and birth control. She said she referred potential endometriosis patients to a specialized gynecologist.
"You can't make the diagnosis by the history of the pain or by how it feels," he said.
Symptoms of endometriosis can be confused with normal menstrual cramping and pelvic inflammatory disease, a condition in the fallopian tubes and the ovaries. Buck said.
Bell said she was in so much pain that her husband urged her to seek emergency treatment at Lawrence Memorial Hospital.
"They had to wheelchair me in," she said. "I couldn't hardly walk anymore."
She underwent the laparoscopy procedure. She said the pain diminished greatly after the doctor burnt away the detectable spots of endometriosis with a laser.

But the treatment doesn't guarantee that the pain will never return, Buck said. He said that if it had occurred once, it would likely show up again.
Flanigan's fills void left by Tremors
By Louise Stauffer
lstauffer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Wednesday nights at Jack Flanigan's Bar and Grill are changing to better serve the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered population in Lawrence.
The restaurant and nightclub is now hosting "Out on Wednesdays," a dance night that replaces a similarly-themed night at Tremors Nightclub, which closed in August.
250 people attended "Out on Wednesdays" at Flanigan's, 806 W. 24th St., Wednesday, owner Dannie Thompson said.
Brian North, Overland Park senior and University Daily Kansan advertising staff member, proposed the idea of "Out on Wednesdays" to Thompson
about four weeks ago and said that Thompson was receptive to the idea.
North said he saw a market for an alternative lifestyle dance night after Tremors closed. He said he came out at Tremors and wanted to make sure others had a place where they were comfortable with their sexuality.
"I saw a way to leave a legacy for gay generations," North said. "This creates awareness, it shows people we like to have fun like everyone else."
Thompson said he was glad to give a service to the community.
Students had mixed reactions to the themed dance. Sarah Colteryahn, Stilwell senior, said Flanigan's was better than Tremors for an alternative lifestyle night.
"It's bigger and there's lots of different activities like food and tables to sit at," she said.
Ailecia Ruscin, Auburn, Ala. graduate student, said she didn't like the club because it was far from downtown.
"I don't like that you can't drink and walk home," she said.
"It says something when an owner of a stereotypically greek bar is willing to do this, it's encouraging." Richards said.
Chase Richards, McPherson junior, said he was glad to see Flanigan's take the initiative to fill the void Tremors left behind.
Teller's, 746 Massachusetts St., hosts "Family Night" every Tuesday, the only other alternative lifestyle night in Lawrence.

University loses bid to Baylor
Two weekends ago, nine members of the KU Student Senate executive committee attended the annual conference at Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas. All Big 12 schools except Kansas State, Texas A&M and Oklahoma universities attended the conference.
The University of Kansas lost a close vote to Baylor University to host next year's Big 12 Student Government Conference.
Representatives from each university in attendance voted for the university they thought should host the 2003 conference. Only KU and Baylor made bids, and Baylor won in a 5-4 vote.
Jonathan Ng, student body president, said he was disappointed with losing the vote to Baylor.
Ng said KU offered specialized workshops and gave a more substantive presentation than Baylor.
"I was proud with what our executive staff presented," Ng, Leawood senior, said. "I thought our ideas were better."
Mike Donnelly, one of three student government presidents at the University of Colorado, said he voted for KU and was impressed by its presentation.
"I think it was very astute of Kansas to try to improve the conference for next year," he said.
Both Donnelly and Ng said Lawrence would have been a better site for the conference because of its centralized location relative to other Big 12 schools.
"The Big 12 is a diverse conference and some of our mid-state schools should trade back and
forth." Donnelly said.
Jeremy Brown, internal vice president of Texas Tech University's student government, said delegates from his university liked both presentations but voted for Baylor.
"They seemed like they were more prepared," he said. "Baylor just seemed like they were targeting more for the conference coming together and getting business done."
Catherine Bell, executive committee chair, said KU particularly benefited from the diversity discussions at this year's conference.
"Ithinkwe got a lot more out of working and brainstorming together than working with the rest of the conference," she said.

GUEST COMMENTARY
Marc Ingber
opinion@kansan.com
I don't mean to brag, but right now as we speak, you are reading the words of a boy stricken with infectious mononucleosis.
That would be mono for those of you who avoid words that have more syllables than you've got fingers on your right hand.
If you can imagine having that feeling all the time, then you've got a good idea
For those of you who have never had mono, I would describe it like this; it's basically the feeling you have when you wake up to go to the bathroom at five in the morning, but 24 hours a day.
When the doctor told me, I wasn't really shocked. I have had friends who have gotten mono, and most of the symptoms they described to me, I had.
There are many false myths surrounding mono.
For instance, although some may think everyone who has it should get quarantined, there is really no reason to.
The American College Health Association says that people with mono rarely give it to their roommates or people they have casual contact with.
Mono is spread through saliva, so if you notice that your mono-streken roommate is putting up mistle-toe all over the house,you might want to have a group meeting.
However, it is another myth that you can only get mono by kissing someone.
Mono can be spread other ways besides a good-ol'-fashioned necking session in the back of the parent's Volkswagen.
It is also possible to catch it by sharing silverware with someone who has it or
using the same face towel.
Mono is present year-round but it usually only strikes people whose bodies are worn-down by stress or other problems. The symptoms of mono usually last between 2-8 weeks. During that time, it is smart to stay away from strenuous exercise, contact sports and drinking.
Avoiding these are definitely a problem for many college students, but luckily in my case I haven't had the desire to do any of them since I've been diagnosed. In fact, all I've really had the desire to do is sleep and play Super Mario 3.
Unfortunately, there is something called class too.
If you think you hate your 8:30 a.m. class on Friday now, just think about waking up to go to it when you have mono.
Obviously, skipping is an option, but it's not very conceivable to miss class for a month and still do OK.
Therefore, I'd recommend going, mono or not. All you have to do is master the art of sleeping with your eyes open. For those interested, I'll be giving my seminar on it as soon as I feel like leaving the house...say, sometime next month.

With a little study, professors can make lectures entertaining
lectures should be outlawed. That's right, I say death to the lecture.
To start with, lectures should be only 30 minutes in length. Professors have a lot to say, but they can tell students all the information they need to know for the day in 30 minutes. Most students stop listening after the first 10 minutes anyway.
Maybe it isn't really feasible to outlaw lectures, they are important, but modification is in order.
If professors are incapable of condensing their lectures they should give students a break about halfway through.
Snow students how concepts and theories affect their everyday lives. The more unusual or wacky the example is the better. This is a great study tool for students because they can relate the concept to the examples.
The idea of sitting in a hard chair for an hour or more trying to get your bum comfy makes anyone irritable, especially
students. Students will inevitably become clock-watchers because their desire to get out of class increases the more their bum disagrees with the chair.
Professors should also use examples from the real world.

Many professors take the time to get to know their students. Professors should offer the opportunity for students to learn a little about them too.
Students, you have to fight for your right to enjoy lecture.
Make suggestions to your professors on how they can improve your class experience and pay more attention when changes are made.
If you don't do that, at least start a petition with me to get recliners in the classroom because if nothing else my bum needs a break.

together can be a hassle," Izaquirre said.
The conference focused on new member initiation and increasing communication with the Interfraternity Council and the Panhellenic Association, said Tony Daniels, associate director of the office of multicultural affairs.
Chapters were instructed to define the terms hazing and pledges, and get that information to the office of Greek Affairs. Chapters can not violate what Greek Affairs defines as proper hazing and pledging.
Hesaid new members often got confused by each organization's variation on the terms. A representative from all National Pan-Hellenic Chapters was invited to the conference.
William Hardrick, a senior from Southwest Missouri State and Alpha Phi Alpha member, said the conference was beneficial, especially for younger members.

"Each student was given the opportunity to think big and make it anything they wanted it to be," she said.
To increase attendance, the committee decided to move the homecoming parade from Friday afternoon to 10:30 a.m. Saturday on Jayhawk Boulevard.
Two other events will make their debut this week. KU fans can cheer on the Jayhawks at a
pep rally from 7 to 9 p.m. Thursday at the south end of the Memorial Stadium parking lot. The committee will also collect canned food today through Wednesday to benefit the Pelathe Native American Resource Center at various locations throughout campus.
Gordon said she hoped homecoming gave students, Lawrence residents and alumni a chance to show their spirit.
Anna Clovis, daily events chair and Fairfax, Okla., sophomore, said growing up by Oklahoma State University influenced her to become involved
this year.
"They have this huge homecoming celebration and I wanted to help bring KU's up to par to other Big 12 schools," she said.
Although Clovis said she wanted more students to become involved this year, she wanted to reach out to the Lawrence community as well.
"It's just such a huge unifier." Clovis said. "Regardless of your school's football record, it's just a way for a community to come together."

"When I told my mom, she was shocked at how affordable it was," Miksch said.
Koop said the advertisements helped her business, but also resulted in unexpected calls.
"I've been getting a lot more new clients," Koop said. "I have gotten a few calls from pervers, but I'm usually able to get rid of them on the phone before they get to the massage table."

Six-mile CROP walk works to fight world hunger, poverty

"It will always be something I do on the side," Koop said.

"We walk because they walk" was one of the motivational slogans for the annual CROP Walk
About 120 Lawrence residents walked six miles yesterday to fight hunger and poverty around the world, said Corrine Hickman, Wichita senior and one of the recruiters for the CROP walk.
Hickman said the walk simulated the walk some people in
other countries have to take everyday just to get fresh water.
The participants met at Westside Presbyterian Church, 1024 Kasold Drive, and walked or ran a six-mile loop. The walk takes place nationwide and is sponsored by the Church World Services, a group made up of 63 churches that works to help impoverished people all over the world. 2,000 communities in the United States take part in the CROP walk, which is now in its 65rd year.
The participants have been

soliciting donations for the last month from community members to raise money for the cause. Each participant was encouraged
to raise $100, and the Ecumenical Christian Ministries, 1204 Oread Ave., raised more than $1200. Their goal was to raise $3000.
Hickman said the goal was to raise enough money to build a water filtration system in an African community that did not have fresh water.
"It takes so little to change people's lives," she said. "It can help so much just by taking one day of the year to do something."
"It's important to remember what other people in the world have to go through," she said. "So many people don't have things we take for granted everyday."
Maggie Beedles, Lawrence senior, also participated in the event. This was the first year Beedles had participated.
"This was the first year somebody actually came up to me and told me about it," she said. "In the past, I had just heard about it."
Beedles said one of her main accomplishments was raising $150 for the cause from gaining pledges.
"The education I gained and
shared was very also very valuable. I learned a lot about water and the way it's treated in other countries," she said.
The educational aspect of the trip was not the only thing that attracted Laura Adams. Topeka sophomore to walk yesterday.
"The average woman in developing countries has to walk six miles just to get clean water," she said, "so I felt this was a worthy cause and a rewarding experience."

Perfect tournament record spoiled by Butler County
By Steve Schmidt
sschmidt@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
The tournament looked good for the Kansas softball team going into the fourth and final game of the KU Fall Softball Classic.
The Jayhawks were on the verge of going undefeated in tournament play after winning their first three contests. Then, Kansas took on Butler County Community College.
And five costly errors caused Kansas to come up on the losing side of a 5-4 decision.
The Grizzlies produced only two hits but were still able to work the base paths because of Kansas wild pitches and errors. Kansas attempted to stage a rally in the sixth inning but failed.
"I look at it as a focus issue," coach Tracy Bunge said. "Granted, it was a long day. But that's part of the game. It's no excuse. They played well, but I'm very disappointed with our effort and our defense."
The Jayhawks beat Washburn, 6-2, earlier in the day.
In two innings of work,
Kansas amassed six runs on six
hits, highlighted by a mammoth home run by sophomore pitcher Serena Settlemier.
Settlemier and junior Kara Pierce combined for a 10-strike-out performance, allowing just three hits.
On Saturday, Kansas squeezed past both Johnson County Community College and Emporia State on a pair of 1-0 victories.
Kansas left fielder Heather Stanley smashed a home run over the Kansas flag in left-center field in the Johnson County game. The blast was her first college hit.
"I knew she'd be bringing it with two outs," Stanley said. "It was time for me to get a hit."
Settlemier overpowered the Johnson County batters, recording a one-hitter with 11 strikeouts. She struck out the side in the second and fifth innings.
"I thought she did well," Johnson County coach Frank Barnes said. "I think it's a combination of her throwing well and us not being disciplined at the plate."
Kansas' offensive production against Emporia State came courtesy of first baseman Leah Mountain. She went two-for-three with one RBI.
"Granted, it was a long day. But that's part of the game. It's no excuse. They played well, but I'm very disappointed with our effort and our
defense."
Tracy Bunge Kansas softball coach
"I was just focused and seeing the ball real well," Mountain said. "We've been working hard now for six weeks, so it was kind of putting it all together."
Kansas pitcher Kara Pierce stopped the Hornets, tossing a two-hitter with eight strikeouts.
"I'm disappointed with the fact that we didn't finish our fall season on a positive note," Bunge said. "We talked about playing our best game of fall this game (against Butler) by putting it all together. Unfortunately, this was probably our poorest game of the fall."

Tennis team performs strongly after break
By Jonah Ballow

Kansan sportwriter
After a weeklong break, the Kansas tennis team returned to action in the Hoosier Classic in Bloomington, Ind.
The team ended its three-day competition yesterday with singles matches against Indiana. Sophomore Paige Brown and freshman Jamie Lang shined for the Jayhawks as they won both their singles matches. Lang had
no trouble getting past Sophie Rychlik, 6-0, 6-1, and Brown defeated Linda Tran in a three-set match, 3-6, 6-4, 1-0.
"Paige Brown had a breakthrough weekend," coach Kilmeny Waterman said. "She won all her singles and played very well beating the top player from Indiana."
Saturday saw the Jayhawks struggle in singles but go undefeated in doubles play.
Junior Courtney Steinbock lost a tough match against Erica
Freshman Christine Skoda was also defeated in a three set battle against Lindsay Bryan, 4-6, 6-2, 1-0.
Fisk from Oklahoma State , 2-6, 6-3, 1-0.
Kansas would bounce back in doubles by winning all five matches against Iowa and Indiana.
On Friday, Brown, Steinbock and Skoda all gained crucial singles victories against Iowa. Steinbock and Skoda were the only Jayhawks to win in doubles play
by defeating Sarah Batty and Dominika Waterova of Indiana 9-7.
Overall Kansas finished the weekend with a 4-11 singles record and 8-3 in doubles play.
"It was really positive weekend for almost everyone on the team," Waterman said. "We made some real advances in our mental game, and with a little more confidence, we would have won a lot more matches."

Golf teams tee up for tournaments
After breaks from action, both the men's and women's golf teams will hit the links today in three-round tournaments.
The men will tee off today at the Purina-Missouri Bluze Classic in St. Charles, Mo. The first two rounds will be played this afternoon, and the final round will be played tomorrow morning.
Starting the tournament for the Jayhawks will be senior Chris Marshall, junior Tyler Hall, sophomore Andrew Price and freshmen Peter Krsnich and Ryan Rainer.
The team is looking to continue improving as the fall season hits the final stretch. In their last outing, the Jayhawks placed second as a team at the Kansas Invitational at Alvamar Golf Club. In the individual standings, Marshall finished second behind Baylor University's Ryan Baca.
In the 14-team field, five Big 12 teams will be in competition including the University of Missouri, who will host the tournament.
The women's team is steadily showing improvement under first-year coach Megan Menzel. After almost two weeks without playing in a tournament, the Jayhawks will compete in the Shootout at the Legends of Indiana Golf Club in Franklin, Ind.
The three-round tournament will take the same format as the men's tournament in Missouri.
Heather Rose and Kristy Straub, along with junior Jennifer Bawanan and freshmen Tiffany Woods and Chelsey Pryor.
Competing for Kansas will be seniors Tifanny Kruggel,
So far under Menzel, the team has recorded two top-15 finishes, as well as two top-15 individual performances from Bawanan and Kruggel.
"Coach Menzel is doing a great job of getting us ready to play," Kruggel said. "We all seem more relaxed and confident going into a tournament. The biggest thing that I see is that we are all having fun."
In its last outing at the Chip-
N-Club invitational in Lincoln,
Neb., the team finished eighth.

VOLLEYBALL Longhorns take Hawks in 3 games
The Lone Star State has Kansas volleyball dazed. On Saturday, the Jayhawks fell for the second time this season to a Texas school.
The Jayhawks (12-2, 3-2 in the Big 12 Conference) are now 0-8 all-time in Austin, Texas, after they fell to the Texas Longhorns (12-3, 4-2) in three games. The
Jayhawks lost each game by two points (34-32, 33-31, 30-28). This is the second conference loss for the team, both of which both were 3-0 sweeps and to Texas teams. Kansas lost at Texas A&M on Sept. 18.
MARIE MURPHY
Junior Sarah Rome led the
team with 15 kills and 11 digs, earning her fourth double-double this season. Freshman middle blocker Josiane Lima had 12 kills.
Sophomore libero and defensive specialist Jill Dorsey, with 10 digs, was the only other Jayhawk with double-digit digs.
Kansas limited Texas' Mira Topic, who was named to the All-Big 12 team last year, to nine kills of 31 attempts. But Kathy Hahn registered a match-high 17 kills of 24 attempts (.667 hitting percentage) with only one hitting error.
The Jayhawks start a threematch home stand against Iowa State at 7 p.m. Wednesday at the Horejsi Family Athletics Center.

Teams make mark at Jamboree
By Justin Schmidt

Kansan sportswriter
Kansas cross country went to Stillwater, Okla., this weekend wondering how it stacked up against some of the greatest running programs in the country.
Kansas answered those questions Saturday at the Oklahoma State University Jamboree. The men finished fifth out of 21 teams, and the women took
Redwine
third out of 18 teams
"Things are really going in the right direction for us," coach Stanley Redwine said. "Our front runners are doing what's expected of them, and we hope to see this continual success in the weeks to come."
The women remained undefeated against Big 12 teams, beating Oklahoma. Oklahoma State
and Texas Tech.
The women put together a strong middle pack to edge past fourth place Air Force by three points.
"We're working on bringing our middle pack up," junior Laura Lavoie said. "We all work together to try to move up."
Lavoié finished third in the race but scored second because winner Kathy Newberry ran unattached, which means she was not with a team and did not receive points.
Junior Paige Higgins, freshman Jenna Bimbi and junior Laura Brownrigg also scored for Kansas.
The men fell to 28th-ranked Oklahoma State but beat Big 12 schools Oklahoma and Texas Tech.
Sophomore Chris Jones led Kansas across the finish line in 12th place, beating 17th place senior Mark Menefee by 8 seconds. Freshman Cameron Schwehr, junior Brian Raggett and junior Dan Ferguson
"Our front runners are doing what's expected of them, and we hope to see this continual success in the weeks to come."
Stanley Redwine Kansas crosscountry coach
rounded out the top five for Kansas.
"We would have liked to close up the gap between our third and fourth runner, but we didn't have some guys because of injuries," Jones said. "Every meet we have left is important. We need to make a statement."
The Kansas men were without junior Steve Vockrodt, Kansan sportwriter, and junior Abraham Kimeli because of injuries. Both runners should figure into the teams scoring strategy when they return.

'Hawks lose in final minutes
11
Duane A. Laverty/Waco Tribune-Herald
Reggie Duncan, Kansas running back , scores on a 13-yard run with one minute left in the first half cutting Baylor's lead to 14-12. Baylor won its first Big 12 Conference game in four years.
By Doyle Murphy

Kansan sportswinter
Minutes after handing Baylor University its first Big 12 Conference victory since 1998, Kansas coach Mark Mangino was speaking optimistically about the lavhawks' future.
The Jayhawks' pass defense needed improvement at the end of the game. Baylor's sophomore quarterback Aaron Karas completed 7-of-9 passes for 119 yards during the Bears' final two drives of the game. He finished the game with 359 total passing vards.
The loss snapped Baylor's 29-game losing streak to Big 12 opponents. Kansas (2-4 overall, 0-2 in the Big 12) seemed to have the game in hand when junior quarterback Bill Whittemore scored his second touchdown of the day with 2:51 left in the game, making make the score 32-24. But the Bears (3-2, 1-0) run 80 yards for a quick touchdown and brought Baylor within two points.
"You look at us today, and you look at us opening day against Iowa State," Mangino said. "We're a better football team in all areas."
Baylor scored 10 points in the final 1:18, overcoming an eight-point deficit and beating Kansas 35-32.
Mangino said the last-second loss was difficult for the players, but they would use it to make themselves better.
Baylor's senior running back Chedrick Ricks' desperate dive for the two-point conversion was just enough to beat freshman defensive back Donnie Amadi to the corner of the end zone and even the score at 32.
Kansas missed an opportunity to send the game into overtime when it turned the ball over on downs with 43 seconds remaining.
After a 32-yard punt return, Baylor's sophomore quarterback, Aaron Karas, threw three passes for 41 yards to put the Bears in scoring position. Baylor's senior place-kicker, Daniel Andino, put up a 33-yield field goal that brought Baylor fans storming onto the field. Security guards quickly ushered the fans off the field so the final five seconds could be played.
But it didn't matter. When Kansas' frenzied return ended on its own two-yard line, the fans once again rushed the field. This time they headed straight for the south goalpost and within minutes, they brought it crashing down onto the field.
"You look at us today,and you look at us opening day against Iowa State. We're a better football team in all

and me being on the other side of the ball," sophomore safety Johnny McCoy, of Killeen, Texas, told reporters after the game.
Another Killeen native, senior running back Reggie Duncan, saw his first action since Kansas' first game of the season against Iowa State. Duncan rushed for 22 yards on 10 carries and scored on a 13-yard touchdown run.

A tale of two kickers: triumphs and troubles
By Doyle Murphy
d murphy@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
Kansas' starting kickers are on opposite ends of the spectrum these days.
Senior punter Curtis Ansel continues to bury opponents deep in their own territory with one outstanding punt after another.
In Saturday's 35-32 loss to Baylor University, Ansel set a Big 12 Conference record for longest punt with an 83-yard bomb that ended up on Baylor's three-yard line. It was one of four kicks he landed inside the Bears' 20-yard line.
"When he hits that thing square, as you can see, he can put people down in the hole," Mangino said. "He's a great weapon to have."
Kansas coach Mark Mangino told reporters after the game that the talented senior had become a great asset to the team.
Ansel said he was surprised by the record-setting kick.
"I don't know how it flew, but it did," Ansel told reporters.

the Lou Groza Award given annually to the nation's leading place kicker.
Through the first six games of this season, he has already missed three extra points and his last four field goal attempts. Against Baylor, Beck missed an extra point and a 34-yard field goal attempt.
As a freshman, Beck successfully converted 16-of-17 extra point attempts and regularly kicked field goals from farther than 40 yards away, including a 59-yard field goal against Colorado.
"I just told him to try and relax," Ansel said. "I know it's hard because I went through a big thing in the spring, so I know what he's going through, and it's just a tough time."
Ansel said he could relate to Beck's problems and had tried to give him some advice.
He was unavailable for comment after the Baylor game.
In last week's victory over the University of Tulsa, Beck missed all three of his field goal attempts.
Two of the attempts were longer than 50 yards, but Beck was still redeyed and visibly shaken when he talked to reporters after the game.

Soccer splits pair in Texas 'Hawks edge Tech, stumble to Baylor We didn't come out ready to play. We were really flat and didn't look like the same team that played last
Texas Tech (2-10-0, 0-4-0 Big 12) led the match early when Michaela Roberts scored with 22:58 on the clock, giving the Red Raiders a 1-0 lead on the Jayhawks. The early Texas Tech lead paralyzed Kansas, which only managed three shots in the first half of play.
The Jayhawks were rejuvenated in the second period and outshot the Red Raiders 12-2. Kansas tied the match in the 76th minute of the game when senior defender Brianna Valento put a header in the net off a penalty kick from senior Lindsay Hunting. Freshman forward Jessica Smith solidified the win for Kansas with her first collegiate goal with only 24 seconds left to play, a header off an assist from sophomore Amy Geha.
The Kansas soccer team (8-2-2, 2-1-1 Big 12 Conference) split its weekend series in Texas with a 2-1 victory against Texas Tech yesterday and a 2-1 loss to Baylor on Friday.
"It was not pretty," Kansas coach Mark Francis said. "We did not show up to play in the first half. However, we regrouped in the second half and played better."
Shots were also few and far between for Kansas in Friday's match against the Baylor (7-4-0, 1-2-0 Big 12). The Bears held the Jayhawks to a season-low seven shots.
The loss was Kansas' first in eight games. It was the team's first loss in con-

The Bears jumped ahead early when sophomore Kristen Ruef scored at the 1:03 mark. But the Jayhawks retaliated in the 24th minute when sophomore Lauren Williams scored her first goal of the year off an assist from Hunting and sophomore Rachel Gilfillan.
ference play and Baylor's first win
Seven minutes into the second half, it looked as if Kansas had taken the lead only to have a goal by freshman Caroline Smith waved off by an offside call. Baylor took the lead in the 54th minute when Ginny Rosario-Tull scored off an assist from Emily Fukuchi.
"We didn't play very well," Francis said. "They wanted it more than we did. We didn't come out ready to play. We were really flat and didn't look like the same team that played last week."
The team will be in Lawrence next weekend when it hosts Oklahoma State and Oklahoma at SuperTarget field. Kansas plays Oklahoma State at 4 p.m. Friday. They will meet Oklahoma at 1 p.m.Sunday.

Kansas must recover after Baylor losses
A loss to Baylor!
A loss to Baylor?
How does that happen?
How does that happen?
It's not like our team's the best in the nation,but come on.
Baylor — a team that was winless in the Big 12 Conference before the weekend—beats Kansas, a team that put up a big victory last weekend?
How does Kansas soccer coach Mark Francis let his Jayhawks lose to the Bears, even if the game is on the road?
The soccer match Friday between the Jayhawks and Bears should have been easy.
Kansas — an up-and-coming team ranked No. 8 in the Central Region — was victorious in its past six regular-season Big 12 games, while Baylor — which won just four conference games and eight overall last year — was in the middle of a three-game losing skid.
Part of the problem was a lack of shots for the Jayhawks. Kansas had just seven shots — Baylor had eight — and none came from sensation Caroline Smith.
Goalkeeper Meghan Miller also had an uncharacteristically poor game, allowing two of the three shots on goal by the Bears to reach the back of the net.
The forward from Edina, Minn., had a go-ahead goal called back because of an offsides infraction with the game tied 1-1 seven minutes into the second half. Smith couldn't put the ball in the net the rest of the game.
After last weekend's blowout victory against Colorado and an emotionally and physically draining draw against Nebraska, a let down wasn't out of the question for Kansas against Baylor.
The team did bounce back and top Texas Tech 2-1 yesterday, but Kansas has to make sure it doesn't get tripped up by a lesser opponent again.
The Jayhawks are young, with 11 freshmen and sophomores, so it's up to Francis to make sure the team forgets about the loss and moves on instead of letting the loss affect them for the rest of the season.
Another Kansas team lost in Waco Texas, this weekend, as the football team dropped a 35-32 decision to Baylor on Saturday.
Yes, Baylor hadn't won a Big 12 game in its past 29 tries dating back to 1998, but who better for the Bears to break the streak against? Kansas was the last conference opponent Baylor had defeated, so the Jayhawks are now the bookends to the longest Big 12 losing streak.
The Jayhawks should join the Bears in the Big 12 record books in another, undesired way, as just the second team to go winless in conference play. Baylor's done it the past three years, and barring some sort of miracle, the Jayhawks will reach that mark of futility this season.
Sure, Kansas still has Oklahoma State, Colorado and Kansas State on the schedule, and all of those games are at home. Oklahoma State lost by just two at Texas on Saturday, Colorado defeated Kansas State, and Kansas State will certainly be as emotionally ready and more talented than Kansas when it's time for the Sunflower Showdown.
Coach Mark Mangino doesn't have much to work with, having to wait until next year before he gets a recruiting class of his own to mold and teach. Of course, going 0-8 in the Big 12 won't help make that group of freshmen much better than the current corps of players on the roster.

Mary Adair has a bone to pick over recent budget reductions leveled against the Museum of Anthropology.
Early in the summer, the University of Kansas announced the elimination of five staff positions and the closing of exhibit space and the gift shop at the museum, where Adair acts as interim director. She, along with others involved in the University, think the administration overlooked key issues when making these cuts.
"The chancellor has said that students come first," Adair said. "I believe this was a decision made that's counter to this principle."
In a press release issued June 10, the administration announced that the public portion of the museum would be closed. Archeological and ethnographic collections housed in Spooner Hall will remain for teaching and research purposes. The cuts made in the museum saved $150,000.
Kevin Boatright, executive vice chancellor for University Relations, said all of the cuts made in June were meant to
impact students the least and affect the fewest number of students.
At Open House Saturday, an organization of anthropology and museum studies graduate students echoed Adair's sentiments on the lawn outside the museum.
"In their determination, this was the best place to make a budget reduction," Boatright said. "The reductions do meet the chancellor's expectations that to the greatest extent possible we would preserve the teaching and research missions of the University."
They waved signs asking car drivers to honk for the museum, gave out white ribbons and asked passers-by to sign a petition against the closing of the museum's public portion.
"A lot of people aren't even aware that the museum is closing, not to mention the effect that it has on our program," said Alison Miller, Arlington Heights, Ill., museum studies graduate student.

Miller said she planned to graduate in the anthropology track of museum studies, but the recent budget cuts will make it difficult for her to do this. All nine students in the anthropology track must complete a 500-
In the past, many have chosen to intern on campus at the Museum of Anthropology, one of
two such museums in Kansas.
"For a lot of us, the museum is the reason why we came here," Miller said. "When I came here I was under the impression that the
museum would be open for me to use for internships and volunteer experiences."
Adair said the elimination of all but two staff positions at the
museum would make it impossible for the museum to provide internships.

New fees threaten KJHK
By Kyle Ramsey
kramsey@kanan.com
Kansan staff writer
KJHK'S webcasting is in danger of being shut down.
"Listen online while you can," said Bill Colburn, KJHK station manager.
In 1994, KJHK, KU's student radio station, was the first in the world to webcast.
The government-proposed 1998 Digital Millennium Copyright Act requires webcasters to pay retroactive royalty fees—dating to 1998 by Oct.20. Appeals have kept the ruling in limbo for the last four years.
These fees could cost KJHK $500 to $600 each year, money that would come from the station's limited operating budget, said Gary Hawke, KJHK general manager. He said KJHK's webcasting server did not log the number of users listening to its webcast, making the actual cost difficult to estimate. Webcasting brings in no revenue.
The fees, set by the Librarian of Congress' Copyright Arbitration Royalty Panel, will cost webcasters 70 cents per performance of a song per 1,000 listeners.
These copyright fees are the first of their kind, because they are charged at a flat rate on a contract basis, Hawke said. KJHK already pays $1,100 each year in copyright royalties for its radio broadcasts, but these fees .
The Digital Millenium Copyright Act charges royalty fees for the same material on a per-user, per-performance basis.
"They're making us pay twice," said Colburn, Lawrence senior.
The high price of webcasting looming in the industry's future has already caused Yahoo! to quit hosting third-party webcasters, such as KJHK, in September. The station had to start hosting its own Web stream using antiquated hardware and software, Colburn said. The station could
host thousands of users through Yahoo! Now the system supports only 25 simultaneous users.
A bill passed yesterday in the U.S. House of Representatives stated that companies that make less than $500,000 per year will be charged a percentage of their income instead of a per-performance rate as outlined by the Librarian of Congress. Hawke said this decision didn't affect KJHK because it dealt with webcasters only, not radio stations that offer supplemental webcasts.

Walking activist collects letters
By Katie Nelson
knelson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Wallis walks 12 to 15 miles a day, collecting protest letters to President Bush. She said she hopes to hand deliver them when she reaches Washington, D.C. this spring.
"What I really want to get is a portrait of America," she said. "All the decisions get made in the cities — meanwhile, nobody is really going into the country to find out what they think."
It's been 2,100 miles, eleven months and two pairs of sandals since Jeanette Wallis left Seattle and started walking across the country.
The letters she has collected every topic imaginable, including medical care, environmental issues and opposition to war on Iraq or terrorism.
This week, Wallis is in Lawrence talking to students and residents. From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. today, she'll be on Wescoe Beach talking to students about the benefits of activism and the need for them to voice their opinions.
Wallis said most of the time getting people to write was a tough sell.
Jack Weller, associate professor of soci
ology at the University of Kansas, said he wasn't surprised by this reaction.
But occasionally people did take action, he said, when they felt really strongly about an issue, such as in Wallis' case.
Wallis has been here since Friday, lengthening her stay because Lawrence has proven itself to be one of the most receptive places to her message so far, she said.
Wallis wasn't always an activist. After being corralled by city police for five hours during protests against the World Trade Organization in 1999, Wallis joined a class-action lawsuit against the city of Seattle for the misuse of tear gas. Each person who sued represented a larger group of people who were sprayed. Wallis said she stood for the uninvolved bystanders who were trapped by the police.
"There has been quite a bit of research showing that people think they are powerless to really affect the decisions of the government," he said.

Students ponder president's war plan

President Bush's national address elicited mixed reactions from University of Kansas students yesterday, as he sought support for a war against Iraq.
"I think he's right in his interpretation of danger," Storey said about Bush's speech. "But do we want to be known as a nation that strikes first?"
Ben Storey, Little Rock, Ark., junior, said he was nervous that an unsupported military strike against Iraq would set a dangerous precedent for attack without provocation.
Bush listed offenses by Saddam Hussein, whom he called a "murderous tyrant," and hinted at Hussein's plot to attack the United States with biological and chemical weapons.
The president said the situation in Iraq was unique "by its past and present actions, by its technological capabilities, and by the merciless nature of its regime."
Sean Hatfield, Bennington sophomore and public relations coordinator for KU College Republicans, said he supported the plan Bush described in the speech. He thought most students and Kansans also supported a possible invasion of Iraq.

I don't think they've been as vocal as Bush the anti war protesters, but I think for the
the anti-war protesters, but I think it is the most part most people in Kansas agree with the president," Hatfield said.
Derek Breid, Oronoco, Minn., sophomore, questioned whether a war would be effective in containing Iraq's use of chemical and biological weapons.
"If we declare war on them, we're just giving them an excuse to use them." Breid said.
Bush said he hoped the United Nations would support a resolution ordering Iraq to undergo tougher weapons inspections and force Hussein to destroy Iraq's weapons of mass destruction.
Burdett Loomis, professor of political science at the University of Kansas, said the speech failed to motivate those who were against the war.
"It was very earnest, it was well put together, but I don't think that it moved anyone who was on the fence to jump off toward Bush's side." Loomis said.
The speech from Cincinnati opened a week of congressional debate about giving the president authority to declare war on Iraq.

Lawrence woman reports attempted rape
A 22-year-old Lawrence resident reported an attempted rape early Sunday morning in central Lawrence.
The woman said she woke up while an unidentified male was trying to hold her down in bed at 2:17 a.m. Sunday in her central Lawrence residence, said Sgt. Mike Pattrick of the Lawrence Police Department.
She began to fight back, Pattrick said, and broke her finger in the struggle. The suspect then left her residence and she called 911, he said.
Lawrence police determined that the suspect broke into the bedroom from a window. Patrick said Lawrence police were continuing to investigate.
He could not comment on whether she was a KU student or where the attempted rape occurred.
This is the second attempted rape that has been reported to a Douglas County law enforcement agency since the beginning of the Fall 2002 semester. Two raps have also been reported since the beginning of the fall semester. Only one arrest has been made.

Sidewalk writings accuse men of being child rapists
Black letters painted on city and campus sidewalks accuse two men of being child rapists.
At least three messages were found on sidewalks in front of campus buildings including Snow, Wescoe and Budig halls yesterday, said Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office.
Maj. Bill Shepherd of Douglas County Sheriff's Office said officers found the same message in front of the Douglas County Courthouse, 1100 Massachusetts St.
Sgt. Mike Pattrick of the Lawrence Police Department said a message in front of Dillons Store, 1740 Massachusetts St., was found about 7:45 a.m.
yesterday. Similar messages marked the sidewalk in front of Teller's, 746 Massachusetts St.
Patrick said investigators might look into the claims, which they generally do to determine who vandalized the sidewalks. He said they generally investigated the message.
He said yesterday's graffiti wasn't typical.
"We usually have spray painting that we characterize as tag art," Pattrick said. "But this looks like a message someone was trying to convey."

Bribery charges dropped after sheriff pleads guilty
HUTCHINSON — Former Reno County Sheriff Larry Leslie and his business partners pleaded guilty yesterday to misdemeanor charges before their bribery trial began.
Leslie and two others plead guilty to two misdemeanor counts of participating in prohibited contracts. In exchange for the plea, all 21 bribery counts against them were dropped.
They face a maximum of six months in jail and a $100,000 fine. The three defendants also agreed to pay $750,000 in restitution.
The three were charged with sharing profits from MgtGp Inc.'s operation of the Reno County Jail Annex.
The state alleged MgtGp paid Leslie almost $285,000, or half the annex profits, in exchange for the sheriff's follow-up recommendation.
A civil suit filed by the Reno County Commission against the three is still pending. It seeks recovery of $570,000 in estimated MgtGp profits over its three years of operating the annex.
Stan Hill, special county counsel for the civil suit, said Monday it is "too early to tell" how the plea agreement will affect his case.

Living in Germany England gave student global understanding

vkeomanyvong@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Every face in the crowd and every name in the phonebook has a story behind it. Every week, Kansas writer Vonna Keomanyvong tells the story of a randomly selected KU student.
Craig Lee learned at an early age that living in Europe has its disadvantages. For nearly half of his life, he had to wait until 2 a.m. to watch the Super Bowl.
Lee, a freshman born in Colorado Springs, Colo., said from the time he was 1 year old, his family, including his three brothers and his sister, had to pack up and move back and forth from the United States and Europe because his father was a colonel in the U.S. Air Force.
In his 18 years, Lee has lived in
Frankfurt, Germany; Norfolk, Va.; Sterling, Va.; Alconbury, England and Prattville, Ala. He spent the last five years in Heidelberg and Stuttgart, Germany. He said he considered Europe his second home. The hardest part about moving back to the United States was learning to make new friends, Lee said.

break in," he said. "In Europe, people are in the same situation as you so they're more open to people."
As he got older, moving got tougher. Lee remembered not wanting to leave Virginia in third grade because he didn't want to leave friends.
"When you're little, you don't think about it as much," he said. "Friendships and being accepted becomes important."
Since he came back to the U.S.
the day after classes started, Lee who speaks both German and English, has missed hearing people speak German and seeing Germany's landscapes.
"Germany has that old feeling to it," he said. "Europe just has so much history. To actually be where something had happened is just really neat."
He said the best place he visited was London. During his freshman year of high school, he went with his high school concert band to visit the Tower of London and watch musicals such as The Phantom of the Opera.
His mother, Khristine Lee, said experiences overseas forced her son to learn about different ways of life.
"He understands other cultures and his understanding has strengthened his ability to transition."she said.
Lee said the transition from Germany to Lawrence wasn't bad because he had visited Lawrence before.
He said he decided to come the University of Kansas because he was offered an Army and Air Force ROTC scholarship. He is majoring in psychology.
He said his experiences in Europe were one reason he joined ROTC.
"I've gotten to visit military sites like Normandy and just coming into contact with that has made me not take things for granted," Lee said. "When you're actually there walking through the cemetery you realize the sacrifices people made. It makes you want to give a little back."

African gender strife explored in forum
By George Schulz
gschulz@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A monthly seminar at the University of Kansas gives professors a chance to obtain feedback on their research from their peers.
The Gender Seminar, hosted by the Hall Center for the Humanities, gives faculty, staff and graduate students an opportunity for discussions on gender studies and cultural life. Professors get a chance to give each other feedback on essays and articles written outside their regular teaching curricula.
"That's what is nice about a forum like this," said Elizabeth MacGonagle, assistant professor of history, African and African-American studies. "Historians get a chance to hear from faculty members in other disciplines."
MacGonagle led this month's seminar at the Hall Center, titled "Living with a Tyrant: Gender, Memory and Identity in Southeast Africa."
Diane F. McKinney
After graduating from Trinity College in Hartford, Conn., MacGonagle traveled to Mozambique to work on a graduate dissertation on the country's post-independence civil war. From there, she became interested in the Ndau people located in and around Mozambique and Zimbabwe in the southeastern region of the African continent. Her studies focused on how the Ndau people's cultural and gender identity was influenced by the domination of the Nguni people who migrated from southern Africa during the 19th century.
Lindsey Gold/KANSAN
MacGonagle spent most of her time in Maputo, Mozambique, studying archives of Ndau and Nguni history. She also spent time interviewing Ndau elders, including women, asking them how assimilation into Nguni culture had changed their lives. Ndau women were forced to conform to the Nguni's marital standards.
Professors at the seminar critiued portions of MacGona-

gle's paper on the subject, but the discussion quickly turned into a debate about objective and subjective historical interpretations. Some argued history could only be interpreted through contemporary outlooks, while others said historical analysis was skewed by political ideology.
"History is messy, but we all have to think about how we're going to interpret it," MacGonagle said.
MacGonagle's work on the subject is far from finished. She will travel again to Mozambique next summer to continue her research and furtherdevelop her thesis.
The seminar was established in 1998 by two former women's studies professors, Lisa Bitel and Ann Scholfield.
"We wanted people to see how research done on gender could bring new ideas on how to fill gaps in history," said Marta Vicente, co-director of the seminar and professor of history and women's studies.
Vicente said she thought the seminar would help faculty and students understand research conducted in women's studies at the University.

Opinion Forum
Do you care about Homecoming? What could KU do to get students more involved in these events?
Last Week's Poll
Out of 73 votes, 37 percent thought KU was doing a good job of recruiting and retaining minority students, 41 percent thought the University wasn't doing enough and 22 percent said they weren't sure whether or not enough was being done.
Opinion Poll
Do you feel the University cares about you?
Yes. KU faculty and staff work hard for me. I couldn't ask for more.
No. Sometimes I think they'd rather I sent them a check and not show up.
I am not sure.
Special Information
Interested in finding out more about KU's football expenses? We've published a chart alongside today's commentary by professors Rosenbloom and Cudd. You can find both on the Kansan on-line.
PERSPECTIVES
Football program doesn't bring home bacon for other sports
When the University of Kansas football program is caught in a losing streak, the sport is often justified by how much money it makes.
A recent article in The University Daily Kansas ("Football ticket money covers game costs, supports other sports." Sept. 4) concludes that the program generates a large profit that is used to subsidize other, non-revenue generating sports.
GUEST COMMENTARY
However, this conclusion is based on a narrow and misleading reading of the facts. A more thorough accounting suggests that at best the football program may break even, but it may actually be a money loser.
Joshua Rosenbloom and Ann Cudd
oninion@kansan.com
In the article, the only costs analyzed were those directly connected to playing a home game. These are what economists would call the "variable costs."
To answer this question we need to look
This comparison between ticket revenue and variable costs would be the right criterion to use in answering the question: would it be profitable to host another home football game each season? As the article shows, the answer to this question is an unqualified yes.
But suppose we want to know whether the football program is making money; we need to ask a different question; How would the athletic corporation's revenues and costs differ if we eliminated football altogether?
at the total cost of the football program, which includes items like coaches' salaries, scholarships for football players, equipment, and the expense of recruiting new players, what economists would call "fixed costs."
According to Susan Wachter, Chief Financial Officer for Intercollegiate Athletics, these costs come to a bit more than $6 million for the current year, more than five times the cost reported in the Kansan article for six home games and well above the $3.8 million earned in ticket revenue from home games. The biggest cost is paying for the recent renovations to Memorial Stadium. Next are scholarships for football players, and coaches' salaries.
Of course, ticket revenues are not the only source of income generated by the football program. According to the athletic corporation, television rights and post-season bowl game earnings from the
conference are expected to provide revenues of $3.65 million this year.Together with ticket sales this yields revenues of $7.15 million, or about $300,000 more than the combined costs we have been able to tabulate.
It is important to note that there are a number of other significant costs associated with the football program that were not reported to us, but could have been estimated.
Conspicuously missing are any of the overhead costs of the Athletic Corporation such as staff salaries or tutoring for student athletes (some of whom are football players).
In addition, costs for groundskeeping and utilities (electricity to light the stadium for night games and recruiting visits, for example) are not broken out by sport, but football is the major user of these services. Costs of athletic trainers and other medical services were not reported to us, but could have been estimated.
Adding in these costs it is almost certain that the cost of the football program exceeds the revenue it generates.
The facts show that any justification for the program must rest on other, non-monetary benefits that it provides rather than on its financial success.
Cudd and Rosenbloom are professors of economics at the University of Kansas.
Bush's threats of force to Iraq justified by international law
During the current standoff between President George W. Bush and Iraqi President Saddam Hussein people have argued that Bush has no right to threaten Iraq with military force.
However, Bush has been within his right according to international law.
After the Persian Gulf War, Iraq agreed to United Nations Security Council Resolution 687. This resolution was adopted under Chapter VII of the United Nations Charter, meaning that it is a resolution which can be enforced through military action.
In addition to declaring a cease-fire, the resolution called for the removal or dismantling of all Iraqi weapons of mass
destruction and to restrict imports into the country.
Weapons inspectors with the United Nations were supposed to make sure Iraq complied. Iraq agreed with all components of the resolution.
In late 1998, seven years later. United Nations weapons inspectors were finally admitted into Iraq. Iraqi officials thwarted the mission by moving chemical and biological weapon stockpiles to different locations as inspectors traveled. Inspectors reported noncompliance to the United Nations in December 1998 Economic sanctions were introduced and have done little to persuade Saddam Hussein to comply with international agreements.
GUEST COMMENTARY
Audrey Snyder
opinion@kansan.com
In addition to reneging on international agreements, Iraq has been proven willing to use its weapons on just about anybody.
During the 10 year war between Iran and Iraq, Iraq used chemical weapons against groups of his own citizens in northern Iraq.
Iraq has shown itself to be a threat to its neighbors and to the rest of the world.
Now that President Bush has spoken about the possibility of a military attack on Iraq, Hussein has changed his tune.
The tyrannical leader has now decided to admit inspectors. Upon their arrival, he will undoubtedly play the same cat-and-mouse game he played in 1998.
It would be great if the United Nations was willing to avoid military action and all international leaders were honestly willing to work with other leaders. However, some aren't.
If Hussein truly wants to open up his country to United Nations inspectors and play no games, military force won't be necessary. If all goes well, the international community will be more than happy to end sanctions.
However, Hussein's past behavior indicates that he is not really interested in resolving issues.
Bush is right to attempt to build international, active support against Iraq.
The British and Italian prime ministers have stated their willingness to support the United States, Spain, Poland and Israel also have declared their support.
In threatening force, Bush has not asked American allies or the United Nations to do anything that was not agreed to in Resolution 687 in 1991.

Sorority women go'geek' for this week's midterms
By Todd Rapp trapp@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Sorority women will go from "greek" to "geek" this week at Watson and Anschutz libraries.
The Panhellenic Association organized "Geek Week at the Library," a competition between sororities to see which chapter can study the most at the libraries during midterms.
Scholarship chairs from each sorority volunteered to man tables at both libraries. Women from each chapter sign in at the table and sign out when they leave. The chapter with the most participation per woman will win study snacks on Oct. 13 and 15.
With midterms coming up, students will be studying harder, said Erin McCall, vice president for educational programs for the Panhellenic Association.
"I think there will be a pretty good turnout because if you are going to study, why not study at the library?" McCall, Tulsa, Okla. senior, said.

The program enables women to combine study efforts, said Kelli Olechoski, Panhellenic appointed officer for scholarship. She said the program promoted going to the library and assuring women that they were not alone in stressing over midterms.
Olechoski, Omaha, Neb., junior, said that challenging chapters would bring more participation and get more women studying at the library.
"I think people will rise to the challenge. Even though it is a little thing, people like to win," Laura Kinch, Alpha Chi Omega senior from Buffalo Grove, Ill., said. "Plus, I think a lot of people go to the library, so you might as well sign in."
The program began Sunday and ends Wednesday. Women can sign in each night from 7 to 11 p.m. at either library.

Advising Network to converge communication on campus
By Molly Gise
mgise@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A new organization will connect academic advisers campuswide.
The Advising Network is a way for advisers to exchange ideas and to share information, said Lynn Mosteller, senior academic adviser at the Freshmen-Sophomore Advising Center.
"It's just a way of pulling everyone together who provides aca
demic advising on campus," Mosteller said.
The group will distribute information about advising, enrollment and changes to policy. Mosteller said. One change in the advising process includes the arrival of online enrollment next semester.
"It's very exciting, but with changes comes a little bit of stress." Mosteller said.
It will also provide professional development for advisers, facilitated communication
between departments and give an annual advising award from student and faculty nominations.
Faculty can benefit from the Advising Network, said Paul Crosby, medical professions adviser. Once students are no longer advised by the Freshmen-Sophomore Advising Center, they often see their department's faculty for advising.
Advising at the University had been focused more on first-year students than on upperclassmen, Crosby said.
"I think there's a bit of a vacuum there when students leave the freshmen-Sophomore Advising Center," Crosby said. "They will be able to fill that vacuum with faculty advising."
The Advising Network can shape advising by providing suggestions, but cannot make decisions about how advising is run by the University, Mosteller said.
The group will coordinate the Adviser Brown Bag Series, a

TOPEKA — A giant crane placed a statue of a Kansa Indian atop the state Capitol yesterday, only to take it down several hours later because of a problem with bolts holding it in place.
Statue sits on statehouse briefly
The placement of "Ad Astra" on a tower on the dome was supposed to end decades of delays, artistic disputes and budget wrangling. Hundreds of people watched yesterday afternoon as the crane hoisted it over the dome, then lowered it gently into place.
Workers then started tightening 17 bolts that connected a plate at the base of the statue into another plate at the top of the dome's tower. But five of the bolts wouldn't tighten enough, according to Ben Bauman, spokesman for the state Department of Administration.
"This is a pretty big engineering project," Bauman said. "Not everything goes together as planned."
Set to replace a single, large lightbulb atop the Capitol, the statue weighs about 3 tons and stands some 20 feet tall. Bauman said state engineers had told state
officials that there might be a hitch when it was lowered into place.
After the statue returned to the ground, the bolts were to be removed from the plate on its base, the holes in the base rethreaded, and the bolts put back in place.
Bauman said workers hoped to hoist the statue back atop the Capitol sometime this morning.
"I don't think there's any embarrassment about this," Baum told reporters.
"There was always a chance they were going to have to bring it down."
Other officials, however, saw the return of "Ad Astra" to the ground, after the celebratory raising yesterday afternoon, as a major embarrassment.
"It's a P.R. disaster, as far as I'm concerned," said Senate Minority Leader Anthony Hensley, D-Topeka, a critic of the project. "Everyone was assured it was going to be done right the first time."
In recent months, Gov. Bill Graves, an ardent Ad Astra supporter, ignored critics who said the state shouldn't spend money on the project because of the
state's financial problems.
Initiated 14 years ago, the project's cost eventually reached $1.6 million, including work on the dome and a new plaza on the south Capitol grounds.
Private donations are expected to pay for at least $1.5 million of the costs, thanks in part to $500,000 in anonymous contributions announced by Graves and the Topeka Community Foundation on Friday.
But criticism, muted by yesterday afternoon's festive atmosphere at the Capitol, surfaced again last night, as a crowd of about 70 people gathered to watch the work on the statue.
LaTonia Wright, a Washburn University social work student, said she was upset with the idea of the state proceeding. She said money spent on the statue, whether state funds or private donations, could be better used to help needy families.
As for the statue's return to the ground, she said; "Oh yes, it's an embarrassment. Is that more money?"
Bauman said he thought a second raising of the statue won't change the cost of the project much.

Witness jailed during murder trial
(formerly the Mt. Oread Bookshop)
O
The Associated Press
OLATHE — The judge in John E. Robinson Sr.'s murder trial ordered a prosecution witness jailed overnight last night, after the woman said she had no plans to return Tuesday to continue her testimony.
Johnson County District Judge John Anderson III ordered Lore Remington, a Canadian who prosecutors believe was one of the last people to have contact with one of Robinson's alleged
victims, jailed on a $25,000 material witness bond.
Robinson, 58, is charged with capital murder in the deaths of Suzette Trouten of Michigan and Izabela Lewicka. Both were found in barrels on the Olathe man's rural property in Linn County, about 60 miles south of Kansas City.
Trouten told her that she was moving to Kansas to take a new job and would be traveling a lot. Remington testified.
until early March of 2000.
In March 2000, she said, she stopped hearing from Trouten but then received an e-mail, followed by telephone calls, from a man she knew as J.R. Turner.
Prosecutors say Turner was Robinson, who they believe had already killed Trouten before Turner began communicating with Remington.
Earlier yesterday, Remington, 36, testified that she met Trouen in a sex-themed Internet chat room in 1996 and communicated with her on an almost daily basis

plans to suggest a proposal to the University's administration sometime in late October or early November.
Simmons said the exhibition space and internship availability played a key role in museum studies' anthropology track, the largest track of the program.
"We're not trying to get them to reverse their decision," Miller said. "We're just trying to get them to help us continue to have opportunities here."
To voice student opinion, Miller and others have formed the Committee of Future Museum Professionals, which
group would continue to raise awareness of the issue with a petition campaign.
The student proposal will ask the administration to hire one full-time staff member who will work part time at the museum and part time with interns. Miller said the hopes of the committee might be "pie in the sky," but the

Five-murder case continues
The Associated Press
WICHITA, Kan. — A judge refused to declare a mistrial Monday in the case of two brothers charged with five killings after a defense attorney told jurors in opening statements a third man was involved in the crime spree
Prosecutors requested sanctions against John Val Wachtel, attorney for defendant Reginald Carr, who said evidence indicated another person's involvement.
The brothers are charged with 113 criminal acts, including capital murder.
In his opening statement, Mark Manna, attorney for Jonathan Carr, argued no evidence connects his client to the earlier robberies.
But District Attorney Nola Foulston told jurors that the state had DNA, ballistics and other evidence tying both brothers to the crimes.
Among the most compelling witness is the lone survivor of the
quadruple murder:
The brothers are charged with abducting five people from a Wichita home on Dec. 14, 2000, and shooting them in a soccer field the next morning. One woman survived but Aaron Sander, 29; Heather Muller, 25; Brad Heyka, 27; and Jason Befort, 26, died.
When Jonathan Carr was arrested, police found the engagement ring that Befort planned to give to his girlfriend—the woman who survived.

COMMENTARY
Joey Berlin jberlin@kansan.com
Recruits soon will blossom
Mustn't bring up Baylor. Mustn't bring up Baylor. There are other things going on. There have to be...
- Landing three recruits in ESPN's Men's Basketball Top 100 is a quality recruiting haul for any school in any year — and Roy Williams may add more. Two other players, Brian Butch, Appleton, Wis., and Ekene Ibekwe, Carson Calif., are ranked in the top 35 of the ESPN poll and still have Kansas on their short list.
The players who have already given verbal commitments to become Jayhawks for next year are an impressive group. Center David Padgett, Reno, Nev., who is listed No. 5 on the ESPN list, and 25th-ranked swingman J.R. Giddens of Oklahoma City both have real opportunities at starting next year, while Los Angeles guard Omar Wilkes, listed at No. 93, should also help immediately. Williams' fourth commitment is McAlerest, Okla., guard Jeremy Case, who seems like a redshirt candidate. Accounts of his play posted at Phog.net peg Case as a good shooter who doesn't yet have the body to play Division I basketball.
Mark Simmons scores on a 9-yard reception to put Kansas' first points on the scoreboard with 8:13 left in the second quarter.
A few people, mostly natives of Kansas City, Kan., took exception to my comment that Kansas freshman guard Jeff Hawkins "played against inferior competition in high school." My point wasn't that KCK high school basketball is inferior to other regions—it was that Kansas high school basketball, as a whole, is inferior.
Guess how many Kansas high school players show up on ESPN's Top 100? Zero. How about on another list, say, RivalsHoops.com's Top 100? Again, a goose egg. Occasionally Kansas high schools produce players like Wayne Simien or former Stanford standout Kris Weems. Every state has somebody; Alaska produced former Duke star Trajan Langdon. But there's a reason Roy Williams heads west to recruit every year; Kansas high school players don't cut it.
But the Chiefs don't resemble the 1999-2001 Rams as much as the 1995 Detroit Lions. That Lions team lift up the scoreboard with Scott Mitchell, who had the season of his life with 32 touchdown passes thanks to two receivers with more than 100 catches and a future Hall Of Fame running back in Barry Sanders.
■ If the Minnesota Twins manage to win the World Series, they would finish the greatest story in the history of baseball. If you don't have a team to root for during the rest of the postseason, root for the Twins and their 55,000 maniacal, towel-waving fans inside the Metrodome. And root for baseball commissioner Bud Selig, the man who attempted to eliminate the Twins franchise last off-season, to be forced to hand them the World Series trophy.
Suddenly, people around the NFL are looking at the Kansas City Chiefs. Their offense, which ranks second in the NFL in both points per game and yards per game, is making a case to take over the "Greatest Show On Earth" title vacated by the wreckage of the St. Louis Rams. The Chiefs' defense is awful- 27th in the NFL in points allowed, dead last in yards—but their scoring ability makes anything possible.
The 1995 Lions also had no defense, and when push came to shove, Scott Mitchell was Scott Mitchell, and the result was an embarrassing 56-37 loss to the Eagles in the first round of the playoffs.
Trent Green is Mitchell, and the 2002 Chiefs are the 1995 Lions. Unless they find a miracle cure for their defense, a first-round playoff exit is the best they can hope for.

Mangino: foundations strong but last-minute Baylor plays nailed down Kansas defeat
Duane A. Laverty/Waco Tribune-Herald

jdomoney@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
Even after Kansas' 35-32 loss to Baylor University on Saturday in Waco, Texas, coach Mark Mangino had a positive attitude about his team during yesterday's Big 12 teleconference.
"For us it was a good football game." Mangino said. "It boiled down to the end of the game, where Baylor made plays within the last four minutes of the game and we were not able to make plays. Even though we lost the game, we continue to improve in many areas of our team and that's the thing that we are really focused on."
One area the Jayhawks showed vast improvement in was against the running attack of the Bears.
After giving up an average of 260 rushing yards per game through the first five games, Kansas limited Baylor to 100 yards on the ground.
"On defense, this is the best performance we have had defending the run," Mangino said. "I thought our front seven did a really good job of stopping the run for the most part."
Kansas recorded seven sacks against the Baylor offensive line, but the Jayhawk defense surrendered 379 yards passing to Baylor quarterback Aaron Karas.
Mangino said his secondary was playing too conservatively and allowing too much room for the opponent's receivers to run their routes.
"We're playing a lot of what we call some 'soft coverage' and we're giving too much room in the zone coverage," Mangino said. "And what I mean by that is that when you're in zone coverage and the ball goes in the air, we tell our kids the ball belongs to anybody."
late in the game after Kansas quarterback Bill Whitte more put the Jayhawks ahead 32-24 with under three minutes left.
The Bears marched right down the field and tied the game with a 41-yard touchdown pass from Karas to

Men's golf score improves to lowest in second round
Senior golfer Chris Marshall led Kansas to the lowest second-round score of the Purina-Missouri Bluffs Classic in St. Charles, Mo., Monday.
Kansas improved 14 strokes on its first round score in the afternoon's second round to put itself in fifth place going into today's final round.
"We didn't play very well in the morning but I felt that we did some good things in the afternoon," coach Ross Randall said.
Senior Chris Marshall shot an even par 71 in the first round, but followed it with a
career-best round of 65 (six below par) in the second round to land himself in a third place tie.
"Chris played a great second round," Randall said. "Even though he missed a lot of putts he hit the ball extremely close to the pin on almost every hole."
Junior Tyler Hall shot a 69 (two below par), compensating for a first-round 72 (one above par) and ending up in a tie for 15th place.

After a tough afternoon yesterday, the Kansas women's golf team, which is currently in 10th place, will need a strong finish today to continue its improvement under coach Megan Menzel.
Through two rounds of play, the team is currently in 10th place in a 16-team field at the Shoot-out at The Legends in Franklin. Ind.
"Our second round of 306 is our lowest
of the year which was an improvement from the first round," Menzel said.
Senior Tiffany Kruggel and junior Jennifer Bawanan both fired rounds of 76 (+4) and 78 (+6) to put them in a share of 26th place.

Williams waiting on letters of intent
By Kelly McNearney kmcnearney@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
But that's the way it has to be, because the NCAA dictates the time, place and manner of contact universities have with prospective players.
Kansas basketball fans will have to wait, just like coach Roy Williams until Nov. 13 for official news on the status of future Jayhawks.
The contact period for Division I schools began Sept. 9 and ended Saturday. It allowed Athletic Department staff members to make in-person, off-campus recruiting trips with potential prospects.
Now Williams and his staff are limited to Lawrence, as the NCAA has implemented its quiet period. During this time, which lasts until Nov.20, it is permissible to make in-person recruiting contacts only on the University's campus. The end of the period is also the final day for prospects to sign a national letter of intent.
But they may start Nov. 13, and that's when Kansas expects to receive letters from David Padgett, Reno, Nev., and Omar Wilkes, Los Angeles, Calif.
who verbally committed to Kansas last week along with Oklahomaans Jeremy Case and J.R. Giddens, who gave their verbal agreements to become Jayhawks last spring.
A national letter of intent binds a prospective student- athlete to an institution in exchange for financial aid for one academic year. The student must meet all institution entrance requirements and must cease contact with other recruiters upon signing.
"We can not release anything that has to do with recruits until they have signed a national letter of intent and we have received it," said Mitch Germann, director of media relations.
Germann said when Kansas receives a letter from a player, he releases the player's name and information along with a statement from Williams.

prospects. The NCAA prohibits coaches or staff from being present at letter signings. They can not even deliver the letter, which must be sent via mail, courier or fax.
When Williams announces his new players, he may show video clips of the players, but only after the player has officially signed the letter of intent.

Aries (March 21-April 19) Today is a 6. Sometimes you get to be bold and assertive, and that will soon happen again. If you want to make sure you're right, however, you'd better devise a good plan.

You have the inside track. The person who
has what you want will be susceptible to
your charms—after a few minor setbacks.
Don't give up.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) Today is a 7. There may be more to learn before true mastery is acquired. Theory and practice don'tyet match. If you dig for the answers, you'll find them.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) Today is a 7. Don't allow a loved one or a child (possibly the same person) to spend you out of house and home. Lay down the law regarding the budget.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Today is a 6.
You're a natural optimist, and that's what you need now. You may not get everything, but you can sure improve your odds with your attitude.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Today is a 6. Something you've been worried about can be prevented through effective communication. Start by admitting that what you thought would work could conceivably fail.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Today is a 7. It'll be difficult, but not impossible, to convince influential people to go along with your theories. To do it, you'll need to have all the facts at your fingertips.

Jury decides Pierce case
BOSTON — Three men were acquitted yesterday of trying to kill Boston Celtics star Paul Pierce in a nightclub attack two years ago. Two of the defendants were convicted on lesser charges.
The Associated Press
William Ragland, 30, Trevor Watson, 35, and Anthony Hurston, 33, were found not guilty of armed assault with intent to murder in the Sept. 25, 2000, attack in Boston's theater district.
Ragland was convicted of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon (a knife), and assault and battery. Watson was found guilty of assault and battery. Hurston was acquitted of all charges.
A
Pierce, not in court yesterday, could not identify any of the three men when he testified during the trial. He was stabbed eight times, hit in the head with a bottle and had a collapsed lung but managed to play in the 2000-01 NBA season, which began a little more than a month after the attack. An All-Star last season, Pierce averaged 26.1 points and helped Boston reach the Eastern Conference finals for the first time in 14 years. He was a standout at Kansas.
S
Jurors deliberated more than four days before returning the split verdict in a trial marked by a change in testimony from two key prosecution witnesses.
Ragland faces up to 10 years in prison for the assault with a dangerous weapon conviction and another two and a half years for the assault and bar
Paul Pierce
tery. Watson faces two and a half years in prison. Sentencing was scheduled for Fridav morning.
Defense attorneys said that police rushed to charge the men because of Pierce's celebrity. Prosecutors said police found the right men after witnesses came forward.
"Paul's a good dude. He got us caught up in a situation we had nothing to do with." Hurston said
after the verdict was read. "He's a victim as much as us."
Two women combined to identify Hurston, Ragland and Watson as Pierce's attackers when they testified before a grand jury 10 days after the stabbing. But both witnesses changed their stories after reluctantly taking the stand during the trial. One woman fainted after the judge told her she could be jailed for three months if she refused to testify.
Prosecutor John Pappas suggested that the women changed their testimony because they were afraid of retaliation.

Phoenix radio station fires disc jockey for prank
KUPD-FM morning radio personality Beau Duran called Flynn Kile at her hotel and asked if she had a date to last Thursday's playoff game.
PHOENIX — The disc jockey who made an on-air prank call to the widow of St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Darryl Kile was fired, the radio station announced Monday.
The stunt outraged St. Louis Cardinals manager Tony La Russa and prompted an apology from the Arizona Diamondbacks.
The radio station suspended Duran last week, but in a written statement Monday, general manager Chuck Artigue said Duran was fired.
Kile, a starting pitcher for the Cardinals, died from blocked coronary arteries in June while in Chicago for a game.

Baylor place kicker Daniel Andino put the finishing touches on the victory as he connected on a 33-yard field goal with one second left that iced the Baylor victory.
This is the second weekend in a row that the Kansas defense has allowed the opposing offense to effectively move the ball and score points in the fourth quarter.
On Sept. 28 against the University of Tulsa, the Jayhawk defense relaxed in the final quarter and the Golden Hurricane scored 14 points to turn a Kansas blowout into a 43-33 victory.
Even with the defensive struggles, Mangino keeps tuting his team's improvement, and he thinks Kansas can gain positive experience from the Baylor game.
"We're playing more disciplined football, we have the fewest penalties in the conference, we're starting to make strides in turnover margin, and we're moving up the middle of the game pretty well," Mangino said. "Our kids are continually playing hard and with great enthusiasm. There is a lot of great things to build on from this Baylor game."

Coaches who don't follow the tight restrictions are punished, as coach Williams knows, but at no fault of his own.
The NCAA imposed a three-year sanction against the University for illegally recruiting a transfer student in 1986 and banned the Jayhawks from postseason competition for three years and prohibited all paid recruiting visits for one season.
In the fall of 1988, during his first-year, Williams faced sanctions because of illegal recruiting by his predecessor, Larry Brown.
Kansas athletics representatives bought airline tickets and clothing for the recruit, gave him free equipment and paid him for work he never performed. The violations totaled $1,244.

Oklahoma State ready for Wildcats
The Associated Press
STILLWATER, Okla. — Les Miles doesn't expect his Oklahoma State football team to lack confidence heading into this week's game with No. 19 Kansas State.

boys should be encouraged about their prospects for winning, considering their near miss last weekend against Texas.
On the road against a team ranked No. 2 in the nation, a team that had beaten Oklahoma State 45-17 last year, the Cowboys almost pulled off the upset before losing 17-15.
"I think they gained some understanding there," Miles said. "We've played a series of teams pretty well. Texas, in my short tenure well, has not been one of
them. We played them with an opportunity to win this year and that was a step in the right direction."

before Tatum Bell scored on a 45- yard run. A botched extra point made it 17-9. Josh Fields' 33-yard touchdown pass to John Lewis made it a two-point game with 4:04 to play, and the Cowboys came up short on their 2-point conversion pass.
Oklahoma State had one last possession and drove into Texas territory before an interception ended the threat.
"Going into that last drive, I think everyone thought we could pull it out." Fields said.
"I think we definitely will get some confidence from it," he said. "We've just got to take it as
a learning experience. It's unfortunate that we lost, but we've got to take all of our mistakes, correct them and go into the next game."
Miles talked last week about making it a four-quarter game against Texas. Last year, the Cowboys lasted about two quarters — a 17-point scoring blitz late in the second quarter gave Texas a 31-10 halftime lead.
Miles said his team lost its poise and fell apart in last year's game. This time, the Cowboys did a better job, although they committed 11 penalties and had three passes intercepted.
Kansas State (4-1, 0-1) opened conference play last week with a 35-31 loss to Colorado. The Buffalooes ran for 194 yards and threw for 289 against a team now ranked 15th nationally in total defense. On offense, the Wildcats feature a strong running game led by quarterback Ell Roberson and running back Daren Sproles. Roberson had a
career-high 178 yards rushing last week.
Kansas State has won eight in a row against the Cowboys, and the Wildcats have only lost back-toback games twice in a season since 1993. So Oklahoma State has its work cut out.
But it also has plenty of confidence.
"It just all comes down to executing and making the play. You've got to do that." Fields said. "We've come so far. I think we've gotten better each week of this season so far."
COWBOY NOTES: Oklahoma State hasn't played in the state of Kansas since losing to the Wildcats 52-20 in October 1998. ... Rashaun Woods has caught at least two passes in 23 straight games. ... Cole Farden averaged 43 yards on his eight punts last week and put three of his four kickoffs out of the end zone. Nineteen of his past 25 kickoffs have gone for touchbacks.
Big 12 looks forward to the weekend
The Associated Press
After nearly stumbling the week before the big game, either second-ranked Oklahoma or No. 3 Texas is about to pull ahead in the race for the Big 12 South title.
Let the hvpe officially begin.
And it almost wasn't, thanks to Oklahoma State and Missouri. But the Longhorns got by the Cowboys 17-15 and the Sooners rallied to beat the Tigers 31-24, leaving the showdown at the Cotton Bowl intact.
Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops said he wasn't worried about the close call at Missouri. Last year, the Sooners had edged Kansas State the week before beating the Longhorns 14-3.
"We went into this game after beating Kansas State 38-37 at home. It's a similar situation," Stoops said. "We're excited for
this game and confident going in.
I imagine we'll be ready to compete when we go down the ramp."
Just a few years ago, these traditional powers had slipped outside the circle of national championship contenders. But for the second year in a row, both are unbeaten and ranked in the Top 10.
UP IN THE SKY: The Sooners and Longhorns play in this weekend's Big 12 headliner, but Texas Tech at Iowa State could be a close runner-up.
Fans might consider squeezing in a nap Saturday afternoon. The Red Raiders and Cyclones' game starts at 6 p.m. CDT and with two of the two top passing teams in the league, it's probably going to be a late night.
Texas Tech's Kliff Kingsbury was 49-for-59 (83.1 percent) for 474 yards, five TDs, and one interception last weekend in the Red Raiders' 48-47 overtime win over Texas A&M.
"We're going to have to do all we can to try to slow them down, but it's going to be hard. I sure haven't seen anybody doing that recently," Iowa State coach Dan McCarney said.
McCarney's quarterback, Seneca Wallace, leads the league with a passing percentage of 64. His 1,653 passing yards are second in the league only to Kingsbury's 2,134.
HAPPY DAYS: Baylor coach Kevin Steele said he savored his first Big 12 victory for all of a couple of hours. Then it was back to business. Baylor's 35-32 comeback victory over Kansas snapped the Bears' 29-game conference losing streak.
It didn't take long for the feedback to reach Steele, who is 1-24 against Big 12 teams in his four seasons with Bears.
"I heard a student, unrelated to the program, just a student that happened to go to the game, say that Saturday night on campus
was the liveliest environment that he'd ever been around," Steele said. "Everybody was just walking around smiling and feeling like winners. We need that in this program desperately."
TIME FOR OVERTIME:
About each coach during Monday's conference call weighed in on the pros and cons of overtime.
While nobody wants to get sucked into a marathon like Tennessee's win over Arkansas, which took six overtimes to decide, the alternative isn't any better.
"I like the overtimes. I don't particularly like to get into overtimes, but it is so much better than ties," said Texas A&M coach R.C. Slocum, whose Aggies lost in overtime to Tech on Saturday.
Kansas coach Mark Mangino said the current system of giving each team a shot from the 25-yard line was frustrating because it essentially takes special teams out of the game plan.
Broncos start season 'defensively'
The Associated Press
DENVER - The Denver Broncos defense has forced opponents to become one-dimensional.
Denver has consistently taken away the run second-best in the league at 56 yards per game which has forced opponents to pass more than they would like.
PENN STATE
The Broncos worked the scheme to perfection in a 26-9 victory over San Diego on Sunday, holding
LaDainian Tomlinson to just 48 yards — 78 below his average — and forcing the Chargers to go almost exclusively to the pass.
The early dominance has prompted Mike Shanahan to call this year's defense the best he's seen in eight years as Denver's coach.
"Right now I believe that," Shanahan said Monday at his weekly news conference. "I don't think yesterday was one of our better games. I thought we did some good things, but looking at the film I think we can even get a lot better, which is a good sign."
San Diego tried to establish Tomilinson early and had some success, but coach Marty Schottenheimer all but gave up on the run after halftime.
Tomlinson, the league's leading rusher, carried 13 times for 38 yards in the first half, but ran the ball just once in the second as the Chargers passed on 33 of 34 plays.
Even Schottenheimer agreed with Shanahan's assessment, comparing them with the defense that took Denver to its first Super Bowl in 1977.
It was the 19th straight time Denver didn't allow a rusher to reach 100 yards.

October films include surprises
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — October packs a trick-or-treat bag full of little films aimed at beating the usual year-end rush.
Nearly a dozen movies will debut Friday, though only six can be seen nationwide; the gangster tale Knockaround Guys; the hiphop romance Brown Sugar; The Rules of Attraction, about disturbed college love affairs; the action thriller The Transporter; the family fantasy Tuck Everlasting; and White Oleander, about a conniving mother convicted of murder.
"It's typical to see a massive onslaught in October, which represents an opportunity for films to get noticed by moviegoers and Oscar before the big blockbuster holiday season," said Paul Dergarabedian, president of boxoffice tracker Exhibitor Relations.
Pokemon 4Ever, Madonna's desert-island Swept Away, and the haunted submarine thriller Below.
Limited to a handful of theaters is Jerry Seinfeld's documentary Comedian; the surreal love story Punch-Drunk Love, starring Adam Sandler; Michael Moore's anti-gun documentary Bowling For Columbine; and Ed Burns' Ash Wednesday, about two Irish-American brothers who tangle with the mob.
Starting films small in a few large cities can help build wordof-mouth for later widespread distribution.
Last October featured a similar glut of new movies, with between nine and 16 new films opening on various weekends, Dergarabedian said.
"But sometimes October is also a dumping ground for films that just couldn't make it at any other time," he said.
Knockaround Guys, which stars Burry Pepper and Vin
Diesel, has been finished for two and a half years. The Transporter was shifted to its current release date from Sept. 13.
The remaining weekends of October are similarly crowded with small-release films, including The Grey Zone, about Jewish workers in a Nazi crematorium; Auto Focus, about the sex tapes and murder of Hogan's Heroes star Bob Crane; and Frida, starring Salma Hayek as Mexican artist Frida Kahlo.
Other factors that make October a prime release time; its proximity to September's Toronto Film Festival, the fact that college-age art-house filmgoers have settled into the new school year, and distance from this year's holiday-season debuts of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets and The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers.
Also this month, Lions Gate Films widens its release of Secretary, a love story involving sadomasochism.

Is NASCAR a real sport? KU students say yes
The following responses to last week's Kansan.com sports poll question "Is NASCAR a sport?" were taken directly from the Kansan.com forums.
No editing was done to these entries.
Auto racing requires great concentration and can be deadly
NASCAR really is a sport. Unfortunately many do not fully analyze everything that goes into racing, and fall back on comments like, "They are just driving cars in circles, how hard can that be."
NASCAR
In essence that is what they are doing, but one must think about all the other factors governing these actions. Drivers must endure 100+ degree heat, with no air conditioning; much physical stress comes from the orientation of the driver for such an extended period of time; and the mental stress is at an inconceivable level.
Now quadruple the speeds and ask the same question. NASCAR, and all other forms of racing have one of the highest, if not the highest risk of death while participating.
"non-sport."
How much time do we in Lawrence have to react to a mistake on a roadway? Not much.
Take time to learn about it, or even go to a race before making an uneducated comment. — sillyredn3k

NASCAR is physically mentally demanding
Of course NASCAR is a sport. NASCAR drivers have to fight not only their cars but g-forces,
They have to do all of this while trying not to hurt themselves as well as anyone else on the track.
They are having to make constant split second decisions that could mean life or death for them and their opponents. There are no time outs, halftimes, second chances, or challenges. It's all or nothing in NASCAR. — Super-sportss4

I know many people say,
"Wow, racing in a circle 200 times in a car, how is that a sport?" Well, if NASCAR wasn't a sport, why is it, then, covered in the sports section on the 10 p.m. news? Why are the races on NBC Sports and FOX Sports? Why do you find race coverage in the section of the local newspaper? Even EA Sports makes NASCAR Thunder 2003. According to Yahoo!, Auto Racing is a sport. — bennyboy

6B • THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
LATE NIGHT PREVIEW
TUESDAY,OCTOBER 8,2002
This week The University Daily Kansan will look back on each of the past three years of Late Night with Roy Williams, starting with the 1999-2000 season. Doors open at 6 p.m. for Late Night on Friday.
Freshman firsts
By Doyle Murphy
dmurphy@kansan.com
Kansan sportswinter
Nick Collison and Kirk Hinrich celebrate the beginning of basketball season with wacky costumes, dancing and silly songs every year. The Kansas seniors even manage to play a little basketball at the annual basketball extravaganza called Late Night with Roy Williams.
On Oct. 15, 1999, Kansas fans got their first look at Hinrich, Collison and Drew Gooden, now a Memphis Grizzlies rookie. They took the floor as the Jayhawks' version of the Backstreet Bows, according to Kansan archives.
Hinrich quickly became a fan favorite when he appeared in a sports jacket and tie to read a parody of David Letterman's Top 10 — a traditional Late-Night role passed on to Hinrich from former Kansas guard C.B. MeGrath. Still impersonating Letterman, Hinrich soon relinquished the floor to "musical guest" Three Tall guys and a Drummer. Members of the band — Collison and centers Jeff Carey and Eric Chenowith — gave fans a little taste of their musical talents when they covered Limp Bizkit's "Faith," with Collison as lead singer.
When it was time to display the talents that brought the freshmen to Kansas, it was Gooden who stole the show.
He and then-junior Kenny Gregory led Collison, Hinrich and the rest of the
blue team to a 54-31 victory over the red team. Gooden and Gregory both scored 12 points and grabbed nine rebounds
Gooden's performance earned the respect of the upperclassmen, including red team opponent and then-junior
Eric Chenowith.
"Drew's got a great knack for the game," Chenowith told reporters after the scrimmage. "He played pretty well to night."

A KU student and a former KU student were hospitalized early yesterday morning after a head-on collision with a semi-truck driving the wrong way on Kansas Highway 10.

The truck was eastbound in the westbound lanes when it struck a red 1998 Toyota Corolla, Douglas County Sheriff Glenn R. Trapp said. Sherriff's deputies were dispatched at 2:06 a.m. to the scene just west of the Eudora exit.

Joshua Ian Lawrence Walton, Olathe sophomore, and Ryan D. Galemore, Olathe resident, were transported by air ambulance to the University of Kansas Medical Center. Walton, the driver, and Galemore were in critical condition as of last night, said Dennis Minich, KU Med representative.
Horace A. Jordan, 51, of Topeka, the driver of the semi-truck, was transported by ambulance to Lawrence Memorial Hospital. He was treated and released yesterday.
It was unknown if they were wearing seat belts at the time of the accident. Both students were trapped in the vehicle.
Trapp said he didn't know why the truck was driving in the wrong direction.
"Ive smoked crack." Filmmaker John Waters details why his early films contained such bizzare and obscene content. Waters spoke last night at Woodruff Auditorium to a sold-out crowd before a screening of his film Hairspray.
The semi-truck is registered to Riverside Transport Inc. of Riverside, Mo.
A representative from Riverside Transport Inc. said it had made contact with Jordan but the company did not want to comment further on the accident.
Trapp said the Douglas County Sherriff's Office Accident Reconstruction Unit, the Sheriff's Office Patrol Division and the Eudora Police Department were conducting an investigation.

Waters wows crowd

Kansan staff writer
The crowd of 500 cheered as filmmaker John Waters said, "When I was young, art meant dirty, and that's how it should be."
Once called "the Pope of trash," Waters was part entertainer and part educator as he spoke to students last night.
His pencil-thin mustache, dark suit, and bright red-tennis shoes with pink socks exemplified his fascination with anything but the norm.
"Every young person needs somebody bad to look up to," he said to the audience. "I can be that for you."
Waters spoke with film students at Oldfather Studios at 3:00 p.m. yesterday, signed books in the Union Bookstore, and spoke again at 8:00 p.m. at the Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union before a screening of his movie Hairspray. People were turned away when tickets sold out minutes before Waters took the stage.
Students found Waters to be inspiring for many reasons, and praised his love of the unusual, Sirkka Howes, Baltimore graduate student, said Waters, a Baltimore native, made her proud of her hometown.
Justin Ripley, Pomona senior, said he liked the offensive material in Waters' work.
"It's pretty out there," Ripley said.
"It's low-budget, and that makes it more on our level. We're not watching The Scorpion King or anything."
Waters is also working on two new
projects. His film Hairspray has just opened on Broadway as a musical, and Waters is writing a new screenplay, titled A Dirty Shame, about his
"Every young person needs somebody bad to look up to. I can be that for you."
John Waters filmmaker
latest "trashy discovery:" sex addicts.Although Drew Rosdahl, Nortonville senior, is a fan of Waters, he is not excited about Hairspray going to Broadway.
When interviewed earlier in the day, Waters gave film students some advice.
"Come up with a new way to surprise people," he said. "Make a movie with sex and violence, don't be too precious."
Known for his offensive nature, Waters is also offended by topics such as stupid movies, he said.
"Forest Gump offended me," he said.
Waters, who was kicked out of New York University for smoking marijuana, said his films would be different if he had completed college.
"When I went to school you couldn't make the things people are making now, things have radically changed," he said.
He told college students not to be afraid of erring in the film-making process.
"Mistakes are the best thing to happen to a film," he said.

Sorority, fraternity barred from parade
By Caleb Nothwehr
cnothwehr@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Sigma Kappa sorority and Kappa Sigma fraternity are building a float that won't be floating anywhere.
The two greek houses make up one of three groups who were disqualified from the KU homecoming parade on Saturday because they failed to attend a required safety meeting.
"It's been disheartening for something
that should be school-spirited," said Rea Judilla, homecoming chair at Sigma Kappa and Wichita junior.
Judilla said Sigma Kappa and Kappa Sigma still planned to build their float and display it on Sigma Kappa's front lawn during the parade.
Genevieve Gordon, co-director of KU's homecoming and Wichita junior, said three organizations that had filled out applications for homecoming activities were disqualified from the parade for not attending one of the two parade meetings.
According to rules and regulations, one representative from each organization was required to attend one of the meetings, held Sept. 30 and Oct. 1st.
"It's very difficult to add late additions to a parade," Gordon said.
Gordon said the homecoming committee had made accommodations to Sigma Kappa and Kappa Sigma so they could still participate in some homecoming activities, but it upheld its decision to disqualify the groups from the parade.
"Deadlines are deadlines," Gordon said.
Tyler Waldorf, parade co-chair and Leawood sophomore, said no policy changes had occurred since last year that would have created confusion with preparation for the parade. A residence hall and a student organization were also disqualified, Waldorf said. Waldorf said the disqualifications didn't concern him because 27 other entries all completed the requirements to participate in the parade.

Discount stores popular in Lawrence across the country
By Erin Beaty
ebatty@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Sales at dollar stores throughout the nation are surging, successfully competing with sales at one of the nation's top discounters, Wal-Mart, according to TheStreet.com and other financial reports.
During the present economic slump, consumers are increasingly looking to dollar stores for cheap prices.
Lawrence dollar stores are no exception to this growth, recently opening two new stores that are reporting healthy sales.
Lawrence now has three dollar stores: Family Dollar, 711 W. 23rd St.; Deals, 3140 Iowa; and Dollar General, 1811 Sixth St. Deals has been open for a month and a half and Dollar General has been open for a week and a half.
The dollar store industry includes Family Dollar, Dollar General, 99 Cents Only and Dollar Tree, which all boast some of the strongest growth and sales
figures in retail, according to Tim Arango, financial analyst at TheStreet.com. He said the dollar-store group had the second-highest sales growth in retail, just behind Kohl's.
Joshua Rosenbloom, professor of economics, said when the economy was in a slump people cut down on durable
goods, like cars and washing machines, and bought the items they needed.
"When people's incomes are pinched, they are going to shop for items at discount stores." Rosenbloom said.

While members of KU College Republicans and Young Democrats push hard for their candidates to win November's election, KU Greens must pick and choose whom they support.
The Greens are not a registered political party in Kansas and therefore have no candidates running in Kansas this November.
"Basically we're an activist group right now," said Galen Turner, KU Greens Co-ordinator. "We're focusing on issues like fair labor and Fair Trade Coffee, as well as a death penalty moratorium for Lawrence."
Brigitte Roussel, Kansas Greens Co.
Turner, Lawrence senior, said the group was putting its efforts behind pushing issues through education and activism. He said there were between 180-200 people on the KU Greens email list and 20 to 30 were active with the group, with others participating occasionally.
Chair, said right now her group's efforts were focused on gaining official party status in Kansas, which she expected to achieve within the next two years.
Roussel said because this is a midterm election the Greens were not as prominent as in 2000 but were still helping candidates on a smaller basis. She said some Greens had come out in support of Kathleen Sebelius and Dennis Moore.
"We need 15,000 valid signatures, so we'll have to collect about 18,000 just to be sure we've got enough." Roussel said.
Burdett Loomis, professor of political science, said despite its relative size, the Green party represented a certain set of interests.
"In some places, like New Mexico, it's been a crucial player in some races," said Loomis. "It played an especially large role in the last presidential election, splitting up the vote on what was a very close race."
Roussel said the national Green party grew by 27.7 percent last year alone.

Police say no leads found in Great Bend shootings
GREAT BEND — More than a month after two women were found dead inside a bakery, police say the investigation is slowing down with no arrest likely soon.
The bodies of Mandi Alexander, 24, and Mary A. Drake, 79, were found Sept. 4 inside the Dolly Madison-Cake Discount Bakery. Alexander was a clerk and Drake was a customer, police said.
Police have never said how the women died. A truck driver who found the bodies said they were in a back office in a pool of blood.
The bakery reopened Friday with four new security cameras.
Police are still seeking a man who was seen outside the store that evening.
Crime Stoppers is offering a $12,000 reward for information leading to an arrest in the crimes.

Stepfather impregnates daughter with syringe
AKRON, Ohio — A man was sentenced to 20 years in prison yesterday for impregnating his teenage stepdaughter with a syringe of his own sperm.
John Goff, 41, quoted Bible verses and said he forgave the judge, police, prosecutors and his stepdaughter.
Goff was found guilty Aug. 29 of rape and other charges. He was convicted of breaking laws he and his wife had campaigned for after a man accused of molesting his stepdaughter was acquitted. In 1996, lawmakers expanded the rape law from only sexual intercourse to include penetration with any object.
Goff and his wife, Narda, artificially inseminated their daughter, then 16, in 1998.
Narda Goff, 43, was convicted in March and sentenced to three years in prison.
Employees exposed to chemical after fire
SPRING HOUSE, Pa. — A small chemical explosion and flash fire at a research lab seriously burned a man who was working nearby.
A chemical process was under way yesterday at the plant run by Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research and Development when a solvent bottle cracked, causing a chemical reaction, company spokesman Greg Panico said yesterday.
Wissahickon Fire Chief Anthony Minio said there was smoke and water damage in the building but no chemicals were released into the outside air.
The injured employee, Lorenti Bonaga, was in stable condition. He was burned on his face, arms and abdomen.
At least six employees as well as three police officers and at least 50 firefighters were exposed to the chemical. They were decontaminated at the site.

Kuwaiti gunmen injure two U.S. marines in attack
KUWAIT — Two Kuwaiti gunmen in a pickup truck attacked U.S. forces during war games Tuesday on an island in the Persian Gulf. The gunmen killed one Marine and wounded another before they were shot to death by U.S. troops. Kuwait called the assault a "terrorist act."
The Pentagon said the assailants pulled up to a group of Marines conducting urban assault training on
Failaka, an uninhabited island off Kuwait's coast, and opened fire with small arms. The assailants then drove to another site, stopped and attacked again before being killed by Marines.
Marines later found three AK-47s and ammunition inside the vehicle, according to a statement released in Washington by the Bahrain-based U.S. Fifth Fleet. It said the injured Marine was hit in the arm.
In a brief statement, the Kuwaiti Interior Ministry condemned the attack and identified the assailants as Anas
al-Kandari and Jassem al-Hajiri. Both were Kuwaiti civilians.
An Interior Ministry official, speaking on condition of anonymity, described the two men as fundamentalist Muslims. More than 30 of their friends and relatives were detained for questioning, he said.
Pentagon spokesman Lt. Daniel Hetlage said the Marines returned to their ships shortly after the attack, but would resume exercises on the island Wednesday.

Coming out to be celebrated
By Nathan Dayani
ndayani@kansan.org
Kansan staff writer
In celebration of the 15th anniversary of National Coming Out Day, KU Queers and Allies will sponsor a party Friday starting at 9 p.m. at Ecumenical Christian Ministries.
Patrick Ross, KU Queers and Allies publicity coordinator, said the party would be a safe environment where people could feel at ease with their sexualities.
"It's a way for people to meet anyone in a setting that's not dangerous and confrontational," said Ross, Topeka freshman.
National Coming Out Day began on Oct. 11, 1987. The AIDS Memorial Quilt, which at the time had more than 44,000 panels as an homage to AIDS victims, debuted that same day. The day was also marked by about half a million protesters who marched in Washington D.C. advocating gay and lesbian rights.
Chase Richards, KU Queers and Allies director, said National Coming Out Day marked the headway the lesbian, gay, transgendered and bisexual community had made in American society. But despite this advancement, Richards said many people were still reluctant to come out of the closet.
"As much progress as there has been in the past 30 years, that's still not enough for some people to get rid of their fear and hesitation," said Richards, McPhrson junior.
Richards said Friday would be an opportunity for students yet to
come out of the closet to be honest with themselves and feel confident about their sexualities.
"In our society, the most salient issue is fear, and when you remove the cause for having the fear, you have more control than you did before," he said.
Ryan Nistler, Olathe junior, initially came out of the closet during his senior year of high school. Nistler said he was fortunate that his friends and family were supportive of his decision to be open about his homosexuality.
"I know there are a lot of people who haven't had good experiences with friends or family - I just kind of lucked out," Nistler said.
Nistler said coming out of the closet was empowering because he could be honest with himself
and with others. He said his openness about his sexuality made his friends and family more understanding and respectful of the gay community.
Richards said that when people were open about having a different sexual orientation than the heterosexual norm, they could help combat homophobia and other sexual stereotypes.
"When a person who would otherwise be homophobic has to confront the reality that a close friend of theirs or a relative isn't straight, they have to either get rid of their homophobia or cut ties with their friend," he said.
"More often than not, the person reconsiders what he or she thinks and does not cut ties with their friend," Richards said.

Kansas grad student to speak at K-State
The University of Kansas and Kansas State University don't always have to be rivals.
Christine Robinson, KU graduate student in sociology and Lawrence resident, will be the keynote speaker Friday at K-State's Coming Out Day Conference at the university's
student union.
Robinson will speak on gender identity at the conference. She said people often confused gender identity with sexual orientation.
"People tend to assume that males who express femininity are automatically gay or females who express androgyny or masculinity are automatically gay," she said. "This is not necessarily the case."
In addition to Robinson's speech, the conference will also include workshops about

Watchdogs monitor illegal downloading

Students who use file-sharing programs such as KaZaA and Limewire should think twice before downloading a song, movie or software application.
The Recording Industry Association of America, the Motion Picture Association of America and other similar watchdog groups monitor the Internet for illegal trading of copyrighted material. These groups have the ability to identify files students are downloading illegally and send that information to University of Kansas officials.
The University has received 57
complaints so far this semester and eight during the summer, Jenny Mehmedovic, assistant to the vice provost for Information Services said.
Finding copyright violators is as easy as searching for the copyrighted material. Because the material being searched for is stored on personal computers connected to the Internet, computer programs used to download songs, movies and software often lead groups such as the MPAA to violators' IP addresses, Bill Kline, assistant director of Network and Telecommunications Services said. IP addresses function similarly to a street address.
A phone call to the MPAA to
verify its investigative practices was not returned yesterday.
University officials plan to focus their counter measures on education instead of punishment.
On the first offense, Mehmedovic sends the student an e-mail asking that the files in question be removed within 24 hours. Subsequent offenses are followed by a similar e-mail and disciplinary action administered by the dean of students.
Mehmedovic is working on a Web-based tutorial that will teach students about the issues surrounding file sharing and copyright law. Students who have violated the University's Internet-use policies will be required to complete the tutorial,
followed by a quiz.
"We really and truly try to do education," Tuttle said. "If education doesn't work, then yes, it's a violation of student codes and responsibilities."
Jane Tuttle, assistant to the dean of students, said many students did not realize that downloading an mp3 or similar media files violated federal laws.
Punishments for violators vary from suspension of their network connections to expulsion from the University. Tuttle said her office had dealt with only 3 or 4 incidents since last year, none of which resulted in serious action against the students.

Parents shift spaces as children move places
By Matt Stumpff

mstumpf@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
After leaving for college, students may find that their high school havens have morphed into meeting places for their mothers' sewing circles.
Parents treat their children's vacant rooms differently when their offspring leave for college. These transformations often reflect the students' changing roles in their families. Students have mixed reactions when their parents take creative liberties with their old room.
Some freshmen don't expect their rooms to change soon after leaving for school, said Connie Sanchez, Shawnee freshman. But she said her family didn't waste any time converting her room.
"It's like the dressing room for my entire family now," Sanchez said. "It's kind of annoying."
Other students are not bothered the changes.
Sarah Lafferty, Lawrence senior, also said her parents took their time before changing her old room.
Her parents renovated part of the basement for her to have a bedroom when she was still living at home.
"It was untouched for a couple of years," Lafferty said. "And then my dad all of a sudden was like 'I want a work room.'"
Lafferty said she didn't mind the change because she wasn't planning on moving back into
her parents home.
Lafferty's mother, Kathy, said it was easier to make the change because her daughter still lived in Lawrence.
Some students take steps to prevent anyone from shifting the scene of their former sleeping spaces, said Amanda Berry, Shawnee freshman.
"My room is pretty much the same as when I left because I lock my door when I leave," Berry said.
Parents may also choose to preserve the memories of their children's youth by keeping their bedrooms unscathed, said Brooke Fogler, Cherry Hills, Colo., sophomore.
Fogler said her parents hadn't changed her room since she came to the University of Kansas. She said she wasn't worried about an imminent change because her 24 year-old sister has an old room that is still the same.
Other childhood rooms fall prey to students' younger siblings.
Tiffany Woods, Chicago sophomore, said her little brother wanted to upgrade, so he took her room when she moved out.
Parents sometimes threaten to change rooms but don't follow through, said John Jackson, Pflugerville, Texas, sophomore.
"They always say they're going to change it," Jackson said. "But they're lazy like me, so they're not going to do it."

FACE-OFJ
Are local protests effective for national issues?
Face-Off is normally a weekly project of the Kansan editorial board.
This week, however, we're doing things a little differently. Instead of two editorial board members facing off, opinion page editors Maggie Koerth and Amy Potter are arguing different sides of the same issue.
As usual, we hope that this will help students to understand both sides of an argument and make better decisions about their own beliefs.
We can also be reached at 864-4924.
If you have any suggestions or comments about this week's face-off please feel free to contact us at opinion@kansan.com.
Protests make a point wherever they are held
Every Saturday nearly 300 Lawrence residents protest the use of force against Iraq on Massachusetts Street. They are making a statement against a national policy.
So why don't these interested residents travel to Washington where a protest might be more effective? Or why not save the time and hassle and simply write letters to their congressional representatives?
Maggie Beedles, Lawrence senior, just returned from a trip to Washington to protest the World Bank. Beedles also participates in the Saturday protests in Lawrence.
Beedles enjoyed going to Washington to spread her message but said protesting locally in Lawrence accomplishes two important goals. It allows Midwesterners to get involved and gains media attention.
Beedles said the Midwest was often overlooked and ignored.
"Politicians view the Midwest as flyover country that doesn't have an opinion," she said.
That means protests and rallies hold an even more important place in the Midwest. They show that this area cares about decisions made in Washington.
Beedles said protests can appear to be very fruitless. Oftentimes, however, they gain media attention like the protest that occurred Sept. 7, 2002. The following day an article appeared in *The Lawrence Journal-World* entitled "Area residents protest possible war on Iraq."
Not only did all the passerbys of the protest hear their message, the Journal World's readers read about it the following day. The protest might have encouraged concerned citizens to write letters to their representatives opposing or favoring the issue.
Another example of a local protest that made quite a statement took place on Sunday. Students from St. Lawrence Catholic Center stood on the corner of 23rd and Iowa streets holding pro-life signs.
Kara Kappelmann, Augusta sophomore, said she took part in the peaceful protest because she wanted to share the pro-life message in honor of Respect Life month.
"Protests should start locally. How else are we going to get the point across?" Kappelmann said.
Whether people agree or disagree with the pro-life protest, students standing on the sidewalk holding signs forced people to at least think about the topic.
Local protests are a small but important element in informing the public on national issues. Who can forget the powerful rallies held by the Students for a Democratic Society, which ultimately helped bring about the end of the Vietnam War?
Some may say local protests are a waste of time and energy, but they play an integral part in the process of informing and uniting citizens, especially in an area overlooked as often as the Midwest.
HiHo Naughty Kids!
Tell the truth. IF you wanted to stop terrorism, you all would quit training and funding the world's most brutal terrorists like Osama Saddam, the Taliban, etc!
Oh shush, keep your own ideals and Morals in check.
We're talking collateral damage.

Local protests don't reach Washington
Every Saturday, a group of Lawrence residents and KU students meets in front of the Douglas County Courthouse to protest the proposed war with Iraq.
Because of their location, many people from Lawrence and Douglas County see them and hear their arguments. Unfortunately, their location keeps them far from the people who could actually stop a war with Iraq - the President and members of Congress.
We live in a republic, and we are expected to let our elected leaders know when we disagree with something they do. Protest can be a form of disagreement.
But there is no point to staging a protest if the people who can actually change things know nothing about it.
Only a few protests ever make it on the national news. Chances are that our leaders never know about protests that don't and thus never know about the participants' opinions. If they don't know our opinions how can they act on them?
This is not to say that all protests are
futile. There are many protests that have been effective, the key is to be in the right place in view of the right people.
A good example of this is the annual protests at the former School of the Americas in Fort Benning, Ga. For the last 12 years thousands have gathered to protest the taxpayers' funding what they see as a terrorist training camp.
The SOA protesters are visible, not only to the military personnel who run the school, but also to their representatives and Bush. Because of this they have been able to get legislation introduced to close the school down and the school's name has been changed in an attempt to distance it from what the protesters have made into a hot-button issue.
Granted, not everyone can travel to Washington, D.C. to make their point. That's why congressional representatives and Bush encourage people to
Would they have accomplished so much if they had held the protests in Peoria, Ill.?
write to them. In some cases, this can actually make a stronger statement than a protest.
Sarah Roberts, press secretary for Kansas Sen. Pat Roberts, said that although Roberts encouraged people to voice their opinions in whichever way they wished, some ways might be more effective than others.
"Obviously direct contact is a better way to communicate," she said.
Another benefit to directly contacting your representatives is that it's easy. All the information you need is online at www.senate.gov and www.house.gov The House of Representatives' Web site even has a special feature that allows you to send your letter directly from their Web site.
It is important to let America's leaders know how you feel, but it's also important to do so in a way that will actually get their attention and get you results.

PERSPECTIVES
Logic, history send anti-marijuana arguments up in smoke
Marijuana is illegal in the United States. But someone who is stoned is no more a danger to themselves or others than someone under the influence of alcohol.
Marijuana is classified as a Schedule 1 narcotic by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency. It is in the same category as LSD and heroin. Substances classified as Schedule 1 have no known medicinal value and also have a high probability for addiction and abuse.
So what arguments can be made for marijuana's status as a Schedule 1 narcotic?
Much of what students learn through Drug Abuse Resistance Education and the War on Drugs illustrates two of the primary reasons why pot is illegal: marijuana is a gateway drug and sales of
marrijuana fund criminals and terrorists.
Looking at this argument from a well-informed, unbiased standpoint, it is evident these problems don't cause marijuana to be illegal; the problems arise because marijuana is illegal.
GUEST COMMENTARY
One need only open a history textbook and look at the age of prohibition to see how hypocritical arguments against the legalization of marijuana are.
A
During prohibition, the United States tried to ban alcohol, a product that was in high demand. The government instituted prohibition because it considered alcohol dangerous and thought it led to depravity.
But prohibition only compounded the problems. High demand for alcohol meant people were willing to buy and
Steve Ducey
opinion@hansan.com
sell it illegallv.
Soon after prohibition was put into effect, the government repealed it.
Further strain was placed on the United States because new government agencies had to be formed to fight boot-legging, and the police force was strengthened to fight rising crime. The economy lost money that was going into the hands of criminals.
Problems caused by the illegal use of marijuana are directly analogous to prohibition.
Why not legalize marijuana, destroy the problems and reap the benefits? The advantages are numerous.
First, crime would decrease because marijuana would no longer be sold in a criminal market.
Second, money that was going to criminals would instead go toward the beleaguered economy. Legal marijuana would make more money than the illegal sort because it could be used recreationally, pharmaceutically and industrially.
Third, the Drug Enforcement Agency, FBI and police officials could focus attention on more important areas, such as the war on terror and combating more dangerous drugs.
Fourth, the public would save the money being spent to imprison nonviolent marijuana offenders, about $4.8 billion dollars a year according to statistics from the U.S. Bureau of Justice.
Finally, marijuana would no longer be a gateway drug because it would be bought from legal vendors that are licensed and regulated. These vendors couldn't provide other drugs like cocaine and heroin. Such regulations would also decrease criminal involvement and help fight terrorists.
Once marijuana is legalized, the problems associated with it will be eradicated in the same fashion as the repealing of prohibition.

Kansas City health system splits
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City area's second-largest health system is dissolving its partnership, saying changes in the health care industry make the merger unnecessary.
St.Luke's-Shawnee Mission Health System and Shawnee Mission Medical Center hospitals will dissolve their six-year partnership on Nov. 1, officials of the hospitals said.
The split was not expected to affect patients and should not cause any job cuts, said G. Richard Hastings, president and chief executive officer of St. Luke's-Shawnee Mission Health System and Sam Turner, president and chief executive
officer of Shawnee Mission
Hastings said most managed-care plans no longer put tight restrictions on which hospitals their members can use. That meant a health system of numerous hospitals did not carry the clout it did in the past, he said.
John Leafier, an Overland Park-based health care consultant, said the St. Luke's-Shawnee Mission dissolved was part of a trend among non-profit health systems around the country.
Leafier said the dissolution was more of a comment on the rapidly changing health-care environment than on either organization.
"Whereas this type of business relationship appeared to make
tremendous sense a mere five years ago, it is less called for today," he said.
Hastings and Turner both said the two-hospital systems were stronger because of their merger, both in patient load and financially.
"St. Luke's is in the best financial condition it has ever been in," he said, noting the hospital would double the size of its north Kansas City campus, was planning a Lee's Summit campus and was making preliminary plans to expand St. Luke's South in Overland Park.
Turner said Shawnee Mission was planning $70 million to $80 million worth of expansions and improvements in the next five years, including a new 93-bed
critical-care tower.
Turner said the dissolution of the St. Luke's-Shawnee Mission partnership had to be dissolved for that transfer to occur.
As part of the agreement, the ownership of the 383-bed Shawnee Mission Medical Center will pass from Adventist Health Mid America to Adventist Health System, which is based in Winter Park, Fla.
"Because Shawnee Mission assets will go on the books of Adventist Health System, they wanted to make sure they did not have a middleman between us and Adventist Health System," said Turner, who added that Shawnee Mission Medical Center would continue to operate with a large degree of autonomy.
Peltier seeks reduction of sentence
The Associated Press
ST. PAUL, Minn. — An attorney for imprisoned American Indian activist Leonard Peltier asked a federal appeals court yesterday to reduce his sentence for the 1975 murders of two FBI agents and let him go free on parole.
Peltier's attorney, Eric Seitz, said the consecutive life sentences are unjust because important evidence was suppressed during Peltier's 1977 trial, and the sentences should have been imposed concurrently instead.
That would have made Peltier
eligible for parole 10 years ago. Seitz said.
Peltier, 57, has served 26 years in prison. He's currently in the federal prison at Leavenworth, Kan., and he's not due to get a full parole hearing until 2008. The Appeals Court is considering Peltier's appeal of a lower court ruling that denied his bid for resentencing. The Appeals Court did not immediately rule on his request.
"We're making a limited argument here today that enough is enough, that Leonard has served enough time, that the sentences he was given at the time should not have been meted out in that
fashion, and that by any sense of justice Leonard should be made eligible for parole and should be released as soon as possible." Seitz said outside the courthouse.
But retired prosecutor Lynn Crooks, who argued the government's case against Peltier more than 25 years ago, told the three-judge appeals panel that none of the facts have changed and Peltier's sentence is justified.
Peltier, a member of the American Indian Movement, was convicted in the June 26, 1975, murders of agents Ron Williams and Jack Coler at a time of high tension on the Pine
Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota.
Both agents were shot in the head at point-blank range after they were injured. The bodies were left on a dirt road.
Two suspects were acquitted and a third was freed for lack of evidence.
Peltier's supporters say the government falsified evidence leading to his arrest and coerced false testimony or hid evidence to obtain his conviction - claims the government denies.
Just before leaving office, President Clinton considered granting Peltier clemency but decided against it.

What is DEPO-PROVERA Contraceptive Injection?
DEPG-PROPEVA contains midwife-injection injection
DEPG-PROPEVA contains midwife-injection injection that is, given as an intrauterine procedure (a shot) in the backbone or upper arm once every 3 months to continue your contraceptive protocol. DEPG-PROPEVA contains midwife-injection activation at a similar time to but not the same as the natural hormonal stimulation by your own ovarian cells. DEPG-PROVEVA acts by activating ovarian cells from opening. If an egg is not released from the uterus during a menstrual cycle it can be injected with an injection of your uterus that makes it ready for pregnancy to occur.
**DIRECTIONS:**
The primary use of DEPRO-PROVIA is contraceptive injection. The recommended dosage is once a month for the first 3 days of normal menstrual period. ONLY if pregnant and not breastfeeding should have the first 5 days of a normal menstrual period. ONLY at the sixth week after childbirth. It is not recommended to inject the contraceptive when administered in the first 5 days after childbirth. It is also not recommended to inject the contraceptive when administered in the first 5 days after childbirth. DEPRO-PROVIA Contraceptive injection is one of the most reliable methods for the average annual pregnancy rate is less than one for every 100 women who use it. This means that
contraceptive methods we will use.

Maryland town shaken in wake of shooting
The Associated Press
BOWIE, Md. — Playgrounds and parks were empty, shoppers darted warily across parking lots and shaken parents escorted children to and from school yesterday, a day after a youngster was wounded by the sniper roaming suburban Washington.
"Usually I'm embarrassed to walk around and hold my mom's hand, but I don't care today," said
Amanda Wiedmaier, 13, whose Benjamin Tasker Middle School was the scene of Monday's shooting of a classmate.
Security firms across the region reported a surge in interest. About 50 Starbucks stores removed their outside seats. And mental health counselors scrambled to set up crisis hot lines for people upset by the string of shootings that have left six people dead and two wounded since last week.
"This is a person who is shooting elderly men, shooting women and now shooting little children," Gov. Parris Glendening said. "This is the act of an absolute coward."
The latest victim, a 13-year-old boy, remained in critical but stable condition yesterday with a wound to the chest. He was shot early Monday after he was dropped off at school.
With few solid clues or witness accounts, a task force of federal.
state and local investigators is sifting through more than 7,500 phoned-in tips. Police said they have 1,400 credible leads but refused to disclose details.
Many Tasker parents kept their children home yesterday; attendance was down by one-third. Other parents served as volunteer guards, watching over intersections.
Dorothy Prather, a Tasker teacher, was impressed by how
well students responded to the traumatic events. "They came right in today and sat down and went right on with their work," she said. "The only ones who seemed really concerned were the parents."
Before classes started, Prather said, the principal addressed the students over the intercom, urging them to get back to business but reminding them that counselors were available if needed.
Less than a mile from Tasker, the colorful playground equipment at the Cresthill Baptist Church nursery school went unused. School director Stacie Hall decided to keep her 2- to 6-year-old charges indoors all day, and let the teachers choose their own gentle explanations.
"One little girl told me, 'We can't go outside today because we might get sunburned,'" Hall said.
The Associated Press
RALEIGH, N.C. - North Carolina, which has had two reigning beauty queens for a month, now has none.
A judge on Tuesday ordered the Miss North Carolina pageant to not recognize anyone as the state titleholder until Rebekah Revels, who won the pageant but was forced to resign over topless snapshots, resolves her legal dispute with the organization.
A month ago, state judge Narley L. Cashwell ruled that Revels, who was crowned in June and stepped down in July, had a valid contract with the Miss North Carolina Pageant Organization.
Revels has sued the state pageant for breach of contract. But the judge said Tuesday that contracts between the pageant
and its contestants say disputes should be settled by arbitration.
Until that is done in Revels' case, he ruled that no one should serve as Miss North Carolina.
Based on Cashwell's original order, Revels went to Atlantic City, N.J., for the Miss America pageant along with Misty Clymer, the original runner-up who was elevated to the title when Revels resigned.
Within a week, a federal judge refused to force the Miss America pageant to include Revels, leaving Clymer as the state's sole representative at the Sept. 21 competition.
Cashwell's decision Tuesday was "quite bizarre, I think," said Revels' lawyer, Barry Nakell.
He said he will ask Cashwell to reconsider.
U.S. abortion rate dropped in '90s
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The U.S. abortion rate dropped significantly during the second half of the 1990s, particularly among teenagers, and experts attribute the decline to better awareness of contraception and a fear of disease that has cut down on sexual activity.
The rate among girls ages 15 to 18 declined a dramatic 39 percent, from 24 abortions per 1,000 girls to 15.
The rate fell 11 percent between 1994 and 2000, from about 24 abortions for every 1,000 women of childbearing age to 21, the nonprofit Alan Guttmacher Institute reported yesterday.
At the same time, researchers were surprised by a sharp increase in abortions among poorer women, or those who earn less than twice the federal poverty level of about $17,000 for a family of four.
"Their abortion rates were
increasing while they were going down for everyone else," said Rachel K. Jones, who led the study.
The study was based on questionnaires completed by more than 10,000 women who had abortions.
Sarah Brown, director of the National Campaign to Prevent Teen Pregnancy, noted that the drop in abortions was accompanied by a decline in teen sex, teen pregnancies and teen births during the late 1990s.
"This signals a deep and profound and robust change in adolescent sexual behavior in this country," she said.
"I think it's cause for — I don't know if 'celebration' is the right word — but certainly our full attention."
Analysts have credited a broad set of factors for those trends, including fear of AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases and more open discussion with youngsters about sex.
"People are really aware, and
we talk more about abstinence and staying away from it altogether," said Shannon Kilcoyne, 18, a high school senior from Greenville, S.C. Kilcoyne was not aware of the study, but said the findings about teenagers reflect concerns of sexual activity among her peers.
"It's more a fear of STDs," she said. "People always talk about how you have to know someone well enough to find out their past history and who they've had sex with."
Researchers said more funding for teen pregnancy prevention programs has probably improved awareness and access to contraceptives.
Similarly, they said that less money for family planning programs for poor women could be one factor for the increase in their abortion rate.
For women below the poverty line, the abortion rate rose 25 percent.
It climbed 23 percent among women making less than twice
that level.
"There have been more and more restrictions on funding for abortions and in some instances, family planning and contraceptive services," said Kathryn Kolbert, a legal expert on reproductive rights at the University of Pennsylvania's Annenberg Public Policy Center.
The Guttmacher institute receives some funding from Planned Parenthood, but its abortion statistics are generally regarded by both anti-abortion groups and abortion-rights supporters as accurate.
Laura Echeverria, a spokeswoman for the National Right to Life Committee, questioned whether the increase in the abortion rate among poor women had anything to do with a lack of access to contraceptives.
"I'd like to see what their educational levels are, how many of them have access to educational material, how many of them understand childbirth," she said.

Merrill Lynch analyst Dan Barry recently published a report on why investors should buy dollar store stocks, noting the industry was expected to have an average annual growth of 17 percent over the next five years.
One reason for this growth is that dollar stores offer consumers low-priced products such as food, health and beauty aids, automotive supplies, housewares, toys and paper goods.
Massissou Hathoura, Ndjamena, Chad, graduate student, said he shopped at Family Dollar with his wife and daughter at least once or twice a week. He said he shopped there for toiletries, beverages and batteries.
Campbell said her store attracted a lot of college students.
"Let's face it — students have to work and have to make every penny count." Campbell said.
But students aren't the only consumers who can appreciate the bargains at dollar stores. Even though Deals is located within a half mile of KMart, Wal-Mart, Target and Kohl's, Diane Dethloff, Lawrence resident, said she shopped at Deals for the low prices.
Deals is the only dollar store in Lawrence where everything literally costs $1 or less. Prices at Family Dollar range from $1 to $20, and from $1 to $35 at Dollar General
"You can go there even if you don't have much money and find something you need," she said.
"It's very difficult to add late additions to a parade."
Dethlloff left Deals with a cheese grater, three hooks, a Jiffy pizza crust and 12 AAA batteries. Her total: $3.76.

Gordon said the committee spent six hours deliberating on whether to disqualify the groups.
Delta Delta Delta and Phi Delta Theta, who had paired up for the parade, also will be absent from the parade but were disqualified for a different reason. The two houses failed to meet the application deadline. Natalie Gervat, homecoming chair for Delta Delta Delta, said much of the confusion originated because her house didn't receive a homecoming application in the mail as it had in previous years.
Gordon said applications,
which were due Friday, Sept. 27, were available at three locations on campus; the Dean of Students office, the Student Union Activities office and the office of Organization and Leadership.
Delta Delta Delta and Phi Delta Theta are still able to participate in the sidewalk chalk competition and the canned food construction, Gervat said.
"We're disappointed, but we're happy that we can participate in something this year," Gervat said.

Israeli troops roll into Palestinian territory
The Associated Press
JERUSALEM - Israeli armored vehicles rolled into the Palestinian parts of the divided West Bank city of Hebron Tuesday, after Prime Minister Ariel Sharon defended an Israeli raid in Gaza that resulted in the deaths of 16 Palestinians.
The White House criticized Israel over the civilian casualties, and said President Bush was deeply concerned. "The president urges Israel to minimize the
At the Gaza-Egypt border on Tuesday, a 10-year-old Palestinian girl was shot and killed by Israeli soldiers, residents and doctors said. The Israeli military said two soldiers were wounded by Palestinian gunfire but had no information about Palestinian casualties.
risk to civilian populations,"said spokesman Ari Fleischer Fleischer.
Palestinian gunmen fired at an Israeli vehicle near Hebron, wounding four Israelis, one critically. Other attackers shot at one of the Israeli enclaves in the tense city from a Palestinian neighborhood, just before Israeli armored personnel carriers moved in and imposed a curfew, the military and witnesses said.
Sharon said Israel would not stop sending its forces into Palestinian areas to confront militants.
Hebron is the only West Bank city split into Israeli and Palestinian-controlled zones.
He dismissed American and
other criticism of araid Monday in the southern Gaza city of Khan Younis, in which 16 Palestinians were killed and more than 100 wounded. Sharon expressed regret at civilian deaths, but declared, "There is a need to be certain that terrorist organizations will not have the freedom to carry out intentional murder."
"The operation was a successful operation. ... There will be more operations in Gaza," Sharon said.
Americans among Nobel Prize winners
The Associated Press
STOCKHOLM, Sweden - A Japanese and two American astrophysicists won the Nobel Prize in physics yesterday for using some of the most obscure particles and waves in nature to increase understanding of the universe.
Riccardo Giacconi, 71, of the Associated Universities Inc. in Washington, D.C., will get half of the $1 million prize for his role in "pioneering contributions to astrophysics, which have led to the discovery of cosmic X-ray sources."
Raymond Davis Jr., 87, of the University of Pennsylvania shares the other half of the prize with Japanese scientist Masatoshi Koshiba, 76, of the University of Tokyo. The two men pioneered the construction of giant underground chambers to detect neutrinos, elusive particles that stream from the sun by the billion.
Neutrinos offer a unique view of the sun's inner workings because they are produced in its heart by the same process that causes it to shine. Davis' early experiments, performed during the 1960s in a South Dakota gold
mine, confirmed that the sun is powered by nuclear fusion.
His experiments were described in the citation as "considerably more difficult than finding a particular grain of sand in the whole of the Sahara desert."
Koshiba won his share of the prize for his work at the Kamiokande neutrino detector in Japan. That experiment confirmed and extended Davis' work, and also discovered neutrinos coming from distant supernova explosions, some of the brightest objects in the universe.
The Italian-born Giacconi, a U.S. citizen, was cited for building the first X-ray telescopes that provided "completely new — and sharp — images of the universe," the academy said. He is currently president of Associated Universities Inc., a nonprofit corporation that operates several astronomical observatories for the academic research community.
Giacconi's research laid the foundation for X-ray astronomy, which has led to the discovery of black holes and allowed researchers to peer deep into the hearts of the dusty young galaxies where stars are born.

Women's team loses players
You might not know who Claire Coggins is yet. But if you follow Big 12 Conference women's basketball, you will before long.
Last week, coach Mark Mangino explained junior running back Reggie Duncan's absence with the announcement that he has been suffering from a strained hamstring.
Coggins, a high school senior, is the best basketball player in the Kansas City area. Her passing is sharp. Her ball-handling is smooth. Her shooting touch is simply sweet. In her three years as a prepreter, she's carried her team to state semifinals three times. This past year, she led Lee's Summit North High School to a Class 4A state title, scoring 25 points in the championship game.
Kansan file photo
When colleges were allowed to start contacting Coggins in June, she said the phone never stopped ringing. In a business where first impressions are critical, Coggins received more than 25 calls on the first day. Kansas was not one of them.
Missouri called her. So did Arkansas, Nebraska, and near-national champ Oklahoma. St. Louis University made their sales pitch that first day. As did Southwest Missouri, Vanderbilt, DePaul and Illinois. Many others called on June 21, trying to bring the sensational guard to their campus.
Kansas did not.
Days later, the Kansas staff finally made a call. Coggins claimed they showed interest, with periodic e-mails and what-not. But their pursuit was not nearly as diligent as the school she eventually committed to — Kansas State.
D'oh!
11
"Kansas seemed interested," Coggins said. "But not heavily, K-State was. They were persistent, ever since my freshman year."
Coggins is beautiful, flamboyant, and tremendously talented just the type of player that can bring fans to the seats. The Jayhawks couldn't get her. The trend is becoming all too familiar.
Sure, some area players are picking KU. Washington was able to land instaters like Blair Waltz and Crystal Kemp. Ebony Haliburton is from Kansas City.Mo.
But K-State and other Big 12 schools are clearly winning the battle of local standouts. The Wildcats rode the shoulders of three Kansas natives when they advanced to the Sweet 16 last spring. Junior college All-American Keasha Cannon, from Kansas City, Kan., was the Big 12 Newcomer of the Year last season at Nebraska.
All these women declined offers from Marian Washington, one of women's basketball's pioneers. They passed up tradition, a beautiful college town, and the opportunity to play in Allen Fieldhouse, for what they felt were more appealing offers.
It begs the question: has Washington lost the magic that landed her stars like Tameka Dixon, Lynn Pride, and the great Lynette Woodard in years past?
Claire Coggins received calls from coast to coast until committing in early July. Perennial powerhouse Duke showed interest.
With all that goes into recruiting, it's hard to say. But she certainly missed out on a potential Big 12 superstar in her own backyard.
"I wanted to stay close to home so my parents could come watch, and I could come home if I had any free time," she said.
Wisconsin tried to lure her in. California asked her to be a Golden Bear. Coggins said no.
With several factors clearly in Kansas favor, Washington and the Jayhawks swung and missed yet again. The trend is becoming all too familiar.

Duncan recovering
Hamstring hampers running back's play
By Doyle Murphy
dmurphy@kansas.com
Kansas sportswriter
After leading the Jayhawks in rushing during the 2001 season, Kansas junior running back Reggie Duncan has been conspicuously absent for much of this season.
Duncan, who rushed 739 yards on 181 carries in 2001, ran the ball nine times for 21 yards against Iowa State and didn't see action again until Saturday's 35-32 loss to Baylor University.
Kansas coach Mark Mangino has a policy against discussing specific injuries; but after weeks of questions from reporters about Duncan's absence, he made an exception last week.
Mangino announced that Duncan was suffering from a strained hamstring but could see action against Baylor University.
"I got out there and did what I could not being 100 percent," he said. "I'm just still working to get it together and make sure it's healthy."
Duncan follows a daily regimen that begins at 8 a.m. with an hour and 15 minutes of rehabilitation. He has another session in the afternoon and football practice.
Duncan knows the routine. He missed the first four games of his senior football season in high school with the same injury. He said the rehab can be frustrating at times, but healing from injuries is a part of football.
Mangino said Duncan just needed time to get his rhythm back.
"He is a little rusty," Mangino said. "He hasn't played much in games here so far. He's got to get that feel again, get in that groove."
Duncan's replacement as the starting
running back also eagerly awaited Duncan's return to the lineup. Freshman Clark Green told reporters earlier this season he preferred the Jayhawk's offensive set that features him and Duncan in the back field.
"I like that look, because they don't know which one of us is going to carry it." Green said.
Both Green and Duncan started against the Bears Saturady.
continue to use both running backs, but each game could give them different amounts of playing time. be different in how much each would play.
Mangino said the Jayhawks would
"We'll give them both reps at the beginning of the game, and if somebody just has a feel for what we're doing and how the defense it playing it, then we'll go with them," he said. "If neither one does, we'll continue to look for it."

Kansas will try to avoid allowing Iowa State its first Big 12 Conference win of the season while the Cyclones look to get their first conference victory.
The Kansas volleyball squad (12-2 overall, 3-2 Big 12 Conference) starts a threematch home stand tonight with a match against the Iowa State Cyclones (9-8, 0-6) at 7 p.m. in the Horejsi Family Athletics Center.
The Jayhawks have swept the season series from the Cyclones the past two years. In coach Ray Bechard's four
home matches against Iowa State, Kansas has dropped just one game, winning 3-1 last season. The Jayhawks haven't lost at home to the Cyclones since 1995.
"We can't afford to overlook anybody in the conference," Bechard said. "A win against Iowa State would mean just as much as a win against anybody else."
Kansas is near the top of the conference in individual and team statistics. The Jayhawks are second in kills per game with 16.69 and assists per game at 15.04. Kansas is also second in hitting percentage with .292. Hitting

Marshall putts way to victory
Kansas senior golfer Chris Marshall tied for second at the Missouri Bluces Classic yesterday in St. Charles, Mo.
Marshall shot an even-par 71 in the third round and a 6-under-par 207 overall, tying him with three other golfers in second at the Missouri Bluffs Golf Club. His three-round total was a career best, and his second place finish tied his career high.
As a team, the Jayhawks finished sixth out of 14 schools, shooting a 6-over-par 858.
"We didn't have as good a round as we ended with yesterday," coach Ross Randall said. "We did see a bit of improvement in certain areas."
Sophomore Andrew Price shot a 2under-par 69 on Tuesday, tying his career low, and tied for 20th with a total of 215 (2-over-par). His three-round total was a career best.
Junior Tyler Hall and freshman Pete Krsnich both shot 217 (4-over-par) overall, tying for 25th. Freshman Jason Sigler tied for 37th place with a three-round total of 220 (7-over-par), and classmate Ryan Rainer shot 224 (11-over-par) overall, finishing in a tie for 46th.
Illinois won the tournament with a score of 836 (16-under-par), and Iowa State's Drew Dalziel shot an individual low of 205 (8-under-par).
"We don't play for a while now and we can use that time," Randall said. "We are going to get better by working on things that we can improve."
Kansas's next tournament is The Nelson-Stanford Invitational, Oct. 25-27 in Palo Alto, Calif.
The Kansas women's golf team also completed a tournament yesterday, finishing 11th at the Shoot-out at the Legends in Franklin, Ind. The Jayhawks shot a season-best 925 (61-over-par) through the three rounds.
"As a team, we just had our best tournament score this season," senior Tiffany Krugel said. "We just need a tournament that four people have good scores at the same time. If that happens, then we will start beating other teams."
Kruggel tied for 17th with a three-round total of 226 (10-over-par). Her third round score of an even-par 72 was a best on the season, and her three-round total was a a career low.
"I am learning how to put things together," Kruggel said, "even if it is not all working properly. Even if I am not striking the ball well, I am learning to make other things better in my game so that I can score well."
Senior Heather Rose tied for 26th with a 14-over-par score of 230, and freshman Chelsey Pryor shot 236 overall, tying for 51st. Junior Jennifer Bawanan shot a 238 overall, good for a tie for 59th, and senior Kristy Straub tied for 72nd with a three-round total of 244. Freshman Tiffany Woods placed 92nd with a total of 260.
Kent State won the tournament, shooting 888 (24-over-par) overall, and Karen Dennison of Indiana won the tournament with a three-round score of 212 (4-under-par).
The Jayhawks will compete next in the Marilynn Smith Sunflower Invitational on Oct. 14 and 15 in Wichita.

Tae Kwon Do club enters tournament
By Steve Vockrodt

Kansan Sportswriter
The University of Kansas Tae Kwon Do club team will face its first official competition of the semester Saturday in a nationwide open tournament in Kansas City, Kan.
Five members of the team and instructor Jacob Thibodeau will travel to Kansas City Kansas Community College to participate in the 29th annual American Korean Tae Kwon Do Association
Championship Tournament, which starts at 10:30 a.m.
The tournament is open to any interested and experienced participant in Tae Kwon Do. Blue-belt Samantha Nondorf, Hoxie senior, said it was not a college-oriented tournament and she did not know how many other teams would attend.
The tournament begins with demonstrations from selected tournament competitors that include board-breaking maneuvers and self-defense techniques.
"It's interesting because you think people are getting hurt but they aren't," Nondorfsaid.
Those advancing beyond the forms round — in which individuals perform a choreographed set of blocks, kicks and punches — compete in one-on-one sparring, following a single-elimination bracket style within belt classes. The first non-black belt competitor to reach three points in a round wins. Points are scored by connecting blows to the competitor above the waist.
Despite the physical nature of sparring. Nondorf said injuries were rare in the competitions.
"Every once in a great while you see someone gets knocked out," she said.
When sparring, competitors wear protective gear over most of their upper bodies, and punches to the head are forbidden.
"They really try their hardest to keep it safe," Nondorf said.
Among the members from the KU squad participating in the competition is

Colorado gets probation for recruiting violations
BOULDER, Colo. — Colorado's football team was placed on two years' probation by the NCAA yesterday for recruiting violations, most of them occurring under former coach Rick Neuheisel.
The Associated Press
The NCAA cut the school's football scholarships and accepted Colorado's self-imposed recruiting limits, including reducing the number of visits by recruits.
Neuheisel, now coaching at Washington, was barred from off-campus recruiting for the Huskies until May 51. Colorado was not banned from TV or appearances but must reduce the number of new scholarships it offers from 25 to 20 in either the 2003-04 or 2004-05 academic year.
The football program was accused of 53 violations, 51 of them when Neuheisel was Colorado's coach (1995-98). Many involved improper contacts with recruits.
Other alleged violations included letting recruits keep apparel, improper use of private aircraft and excessive compensation to recruits ranging from
The NCAA's infractions committee ruled Colorado didn't properly monitor its football staff.
The committee ruled that both Colorado and Neuheisel were at fault, but Yeager said Neuheisel's penalty was meaningful.
Gary Barnett, Neuheisel's successor at Colorado, had told the committee that any penalties should follow Neuheisel.
$3.20 to $36.76.
"When the head coach of any sport is restricted in the off-campus recruiting process, that is a significant restriction in recruiting." Yeager said.
Colorado athletic director Dick Tharp said the university accepted responsibility because it hired Neuheisl and his staff.
Colorado still can have the maximum 85 players on scholarship.
Barnett called the impact of the penalties minimal and said he was relieved it wasn't worse.
"If there is any damage, it's more or less a hardship on us as coaches, rather than any damage to the institution or to our program," he said.
Barnett said coaches would write recruits and tell them not to worry.
Three Nebraska backs will share carries against Missouri
"To our (current) players and our program, there really are no penalties. They won't notice one bit of difference," he said.
The Associated Press
Diedrick will start Saturday against Missouri, and No. 2 back David Horne and third-team Thunder Collins will get some carries. Solich, the former running backs coach, has shaken up his lineup after a slow start has stretched into the mid-way point of the season.
LINCOLN, Neb. — While Dahrran Diedrick is still Nebraska's starting I-back, his job could very well be up for grabs.
Coach Frank Solich said yesterday this late in the season, the Cornhuskers need the breakaway threat they have lacked through the first six games.
Nebraska (4-2) still hasn't had a running back
"We're still in a situation where we need that position to start giving us big plays. We'll continue to try a mixture of people." Sollic said.
Solich introduced Horne to the race last week and the true freshman responded by carrying the ball 12 times for 81 yards an average of 6.8 yards per carry.
rush for 100 yards in a game this season. Quarterback Jammal Lord leads the team in rushing with 591 yards. Diedrick is second with 398 on 88 carries, but his longest run of the season is just 26 yards.
"He got things done. He made plays where he made people miss and was close to breaking a play or two," Solich said. "He also showed excellent patience, which sometimes as a true freshman in your first start isn't always there. I think he's a mature young man whose ability showed in that game."
Solich has always been loyal to Diedrick, who was the first recruit to commit to Nebraska when Solich took over for Tom Osborne.
Brown looks for speed in Texas
The Associated Press
AUSTIN, Texas — When Mack Brown was at North Carolina, he watched Florida State blitz his Tar Heels with defensive speed faster than anything he'd ever seen.
Losing every year to the Seminoles taught Brown a valuable lesson: get faster or get left behind.
He got faster. At Texas, Brown's Longhorns are running circles around opposing offenses.
Third-ranked Texas (5-0) already has two shutouts, and is second nationally in total defense going into Saturday's game against No. 2 Oklahoma (5-0).
"When I first got here, everyone was big and tough," said senior linebacker Lee Jackson, whose two sacks tie him for the team lead with linebacker Reed Boyd. "The coaches wanted guys who could get from sideline to sideline."
Linemen and linebackers chase down quarterbacks and running backs.
Brown and defensive coordinator Carl Reese turned things around by putting emphasis on speed. Everywhere.
John Mackovic, Brown's predecessor, put together some of the best offensive talent in the country, but his defenses held him back. Texas was 85th in total defense in 1997, Mackovic's final season.
Senior defensive end Corey Redding and sophomore linebacker Derrick Johnson are perfect examples.
Speedy defensive backs keep up with receivers, preventing them from catching the ball or tackling them after they do.
At 6-foot-5,270 pounds, Redding has a reputation as a good pass rusher, but he's fast enough that Reese often drops him back into coverage. He has 29 tackles and 17 quarterback pressures but has yet to record a sack.
He swarms from sideline to sideline and covers ground quickly enough to make up for defensive lapses.
Johnson, at 6-feed-4,220 pounds,ranks second on the team with 45 tackles.
Johnson led Texas with eight tackles last year as the Longhorns held Oklahoma to just 206 total yards.

Charges refiled in boy's attack at Comiskey Park
In Juvenile Court, after a brief hearing, the boy got to hug his mother, his grandmother and his uncle, all of whom were otherwise unidentified.
CHICAGO — A Cook County prosecutor refiled two charges Tuesday against a 15-year-old boy accused of attacking a Kansas City Royals coach at Comiskey Park last month.
Charges of aggravated battery and mob action against a state police officer that had been dropped shortly after the attack on Royals coach Tom Gamboa were refiled in the hearing.
The off-duty trooper was a security officer at the ballpark.
The boy and his father, William Ligue Jr. of Alsip, Ill., are accused of attacking Gamboa as he stood in the first base coach's box during a game between the Royals and the Chicago White Sox Sept. 19. Gamboa was not seriously injured.

Freshman middle blocker Josiane Lima is fifth in the Big 12 with 4.09 kills per game, and sophomore middle blocker Ashley Michaels leads the Big 12 with a 429 hitting percentage.
After a quick 9-2 start, the Cyclones have lost their last six matches, all against Big 12 foes. In its last match, Iowa State lost to Baylor in four games at home Saturday.
On offense, sophomore outside hitter Brittany Dalager leads the team with 3.31 kills per game. Iowa State is in the upper echelons in blocking, second in the Big 12 with 2.89 blocks per game. Bechard said the Cyclones are a steady team that has cut down on serving and hitting errors.
"I'm pretty sure that everyone on the team gives Iowa State a fair amount of respect regardless of their record," senior outside hitter Molly Scavuzzo said. "We're still going to play them hard and give them a good match."

black-belt Thibodeau, who will be defending last year's black-belt title.
The tournament is the first of three for the Tae Kwon Do team this fall.
The group started practice at the beginning of the semester and is confident that it will do well in its first competition.
The team practices three times a week, including an informal session every Sunday.
Practices include long stretching sessions to improve flexibility followed by kick/punch combinations and self-defense techniques.
Members advance their belt rankings by testing accumulated skills en route to a black belt, the highest belt rank in Tae Kwon Do.
Nondorf said that achieving black-belt status required attention and discipline as well as patience and time.
"It depends on the person and how often you go to practice," said Nondorf, who was
drawn to the sport a year ago because of a friend's involvement. "After one year, I got low blue-belt. For black-belt, it would take at least two years."
Tae Kwon Do combines intense cardiovascular work with muscle toning and flexibility for a complete workout, Nondorf said.
Beyond the fitness aspect lies the development of discipline and respect based on the longstanding tradition of Tae Kwon Do.
"You always call your instructor'sir,' and it makes for a good atmosphere," Nondorf said.
The team encourages any interested student to give Tae Kwon Do a try.
This weekend's competition starts at 10:50 a.m. Saturday at 7250 State Ave. in Kansas City, Kan.
Sparring rounds begin at 4:30 p.m. and end at around 6:30 p.m.

Quarterback redshirts rest of season
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — Coming to Nebraska a semester early didn't get quarterback Curt Dukes in a game any quicker.
"I just killed myself the last couple of weeks thinking about it. I knew I had to come up with a decision soon." Dukes said yesterday, the first time he had spoken publicly about his decision.
Dukes, who had been working out with the top offensive units last spring and this fall, decided last week to sit out the rest of the season and redshirt, giving him four years of eligibility starting next fall.
Dukes, a 6-foot-1, 205-pound right-hander from Stony Point. N.C., finished high school early and came to Nebraska in January hoping to establish himself as the Huskers' next great option quarterback. He drew comparisons to former Husker Scott Frost as a strong runner who could throw when he had to.
He didn't play in the Cornhuskers first six games this fall, and unless there's an injury to starter Jammal Lord or Mike Stuntz, Dukes won't play in the final seven, including Saturday's game with Missouri.
Dukes emerged from the spring as the No. 2 quarterback behind starter Jammal Lord, but slipped behind Mike Stuntz in August.
When Lord faltered in losses at Penn State and Iowa State, the job appeared to be wide open between Lord, Stuntz and Dukes. But Dukes said he and the coaching staff decided on redshirting in the middle of the week.
"Now I realize there are a few things I need to work on," Dukes said. "Being that it is in the middle of the season, I can probably benefit more from it if I was going redshirt."
Dukes, who didn't dress for Saturday's 38-14 win over McNeese State, was immediately given a new role as the scout team quarterback. Dukes and a group of Husker reserves this week get to emulate Missouri's offense and quarterback Brad Smith, who ran for 213 yards and two touchdowns and passed for 178 yards and a score against Oklahoma on Saturday.
Now instead of running Nebraska's No. 1 offense, Dukes is going up against the top defensive units, and doesn't enjoy quite the same protection he had in practice for the first half of the season.
"You have to think a lot quicker and be decisive. You have to react," Dukes said. "It's just a totally different feel versus running against the defenses down here with the offense. I think it will make me a better quarterback."
Note:
Nebraska rush end Chris Kelsay missed his second straight practice yesterday with a hamstring injury.
Kelsay, a senior co-captain from Auburn, strained his right hamstring after just eight plays Saturday in the Cornhuskers' 38-14 win over McNeese State.
Coach Frank Solich hoped Kelsay and fellow co-captain Deluan Groce, a cornerback who missed practice yesterday for an undisclosed reason, would be ready to play Saturday against Missouri.
"We've got a few guys that have not practiced this week that we're hoping will be out there tomorrow," Solich said. "There's not anybody ruled out at this point, but you start to get a little more concerned as you go through the week."
Twins slip by Angels in series opener
The Associated Press
MINNEAPOLIS — The Minnesota Twins just won't go away.
The team that wasn't supposed to make it to opening day isn't a surprise anymore.
Joe Mays shut down Anaheim for eight innings and Corey Koskie hit a go-ahead double Tuesday night, lifting the Twins over the Angels 2-1 in the opener of this improbable AL championship series.
Before 55,562 screaming, Homer Hanky-waving fans in the Metrodome, and with commissioner Bud Selig watching from a luxury suite behind home plate, the Twins signaled the time has come to forget the Yankees, Braves and other big spenders
who have dominated the playoffs in recent years.
And they showed just how dominant they are in the Metrodome, improving to 13-2 there in postseason play. Game 2 is in the dome Wednesday night, with Rick Reed pitching for the Twins against Ramon Ortiz.
The Metrodome was festive and loud for its biggest night since Oct. 27, 1991, when Jack Morris pitched a 10-inning shutout against Atlanta to win Game 7 of the World Series 1-0. The crowd was on its feet shouting during the key points of the game and throughout the ninth inning.
Baseball owners tried to fold the Twins along with the Montreal Expos last offseason, but were blocked by the Minnesota
courts. Since then, the Twins have seemed intent on banging the gavel on all of baseball, wanting to force Selig to hand them the World Series trophy.
"Contract-ula-tions Twins for a superb season/All the way for Bud's sake" read one sign behind home plate.
Anaheim, too, is a surprise to be here. The Angels are seeking their first World Series appearance since joining the major leagues in 1961.
Mays, hit hard by Oakland in Game 2 of the five-game division series, shut down the high-flying Angels, who hit .376 in their four-game victory over the four-time defending league champion Yankees — the highest average by a team in any postseason
series.
Mays allowed only four hits and an unearned run caused by an error by shortstop Cristian Guzman, striking out three and walking none in eight innings. Eddie Guardado pitched a hitless ninth for the save.
Anaheim's Kevin Appier, winless in four postseason appearances, pitched almost as well, giving up two runs and five hits in five innings, but it wasn't enough.
Minnesota went ahead in the second when Toril Hunter doubled, advanced on a wild pitch and came home on A.J. Pierzynski's sacrifice fly.
Anaheim tied it in the third on singles by Adam Kennedy and David Eckstein.

Chiefs' 42-year-old kicker shows signs of aging
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Maybe time's catching up with the oldest player in the NFL.
Forty-two-year-old kicker Morten Andersen pulled a hamstring on his plant leg while warming up for Kansas City's game at the New York Jets on Sunday. Even though he went ahead and booted three field goals — extending his streak to 23 in a row — the Chiefs are pulling "guys off the street" in case Andersen can't be ready for this week's game at San Diego, coach
Dick Vermeil said Monday.
The biggest concern may be kickoffs. Anderson couldn't get much distance on his Sunday. Punter Dan Stryzinski kicked off once and did not do particularly well.
"It's possible Morten could kick field goals and we'd have somebody else do the kickoffs," Vermell said.
"He still has good strength in the leg. But we're still bringing four kickers in (Tuesday), four guys off the street, to take a look at and see if we have to go in that direction."
Special teams coach Frank Gansz Jr, said one of the four was Michael Husted, who was in Kansas City's minicamp last year.
Bringing in a temporary replacement kicker would not be an easy decision for the Chiefs (3-2).
"The negative of going in that direction is we have to release somebody off the 53-man roster." Vermeil said. "That always makes it tough because you don't know if you'll get the guy back. And if you only want the guy temporary, to lose a player for a temporary basis fill-in really hurts your football team's development. There's a lot going on in regard to that."
CHEFS
The Chiefs
will probably wait until late in the week to make a decision on whether to bring in a temporary kicker.
"It's not like a running back pulling a hamstring, or his kicking leg. We'll just have to play it by ear." Vermel said.
In obvious discomfort, Andersen kicked field goals of 36,40 and 27 yards Sunday.
"He's been doing it long enough to do it right," Vermeil said.
Hes said he's not concerned that Andersen's age might make him slower to heal.
"I don't think the age factor will be any different with him than if it was a 25-year-old guy. If you pull a hamstring, you pull a hamstring. How serious the pull is what determines the recovery time."
Also hobbled is safety Greg Wesley, who has made four interceptions in the past two weeks.
He aggravated a deep shoulder bruise he sustained the week before while tackling Miami's Ricky Williams.
By the end of the Jets game, the Chiefs were down to their thirdteam safety, Shaunard Harts, because backup Kyle West was also nicked up.
"Greg was not in as much pain today as yesterday," Vermeil said. "X-rays were negative. Shaunard Harts played well. He stayed within the scheme and did not get out of position. He would probably play this week if needed."
Following attack, Royals coach moved back to bullpen
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The most famous first base coach in the major leagues has a new job.
Tom Gamboa, who won universal sympathy when he was attacked by two White Sox fans during a game in Chicago, has been ordered to return to his old job as Kansas City's bullpen coach.
Gamboa said he still hasn't been given a reason for the change. But Royals' general manager Allard Baird said it has nothing to do with the bizarre episode in Comiskey Park last month that made Gamboa the talk of not only baseAall, but an entire nation that
seems increasingly beset by random violence.
"Looking at it from the outside, I can see where people might wonder if the Chicago incident had something to do with this," Baird said. "But I can assure you it did not."
"Tom has experience in all different areas of the game and we felt he could upgrade the continuity in the bullpen."
A 34-year-old Chicago man, William Ligue Jr., and his 15-year-old son are facing felony charges in the attack.
Kansas City was batting in the ninth inning when the shirtless father and son jumped out of the stands and blindsided Gamboa in
KC
R
Royals
the coaching box.
They knocked Gamboa to the ground and pummeling him until Royals players stormed out of the dugout.
Throughout the next week, Gamboa, 54, appeared on national news shows such as NBCs "Today."
He even joked that he was a "no-man guy having his 15 minutes of fame."
Now, against his wishes, he's changing jobs.
"I was a little surprised when Allard told me where I was going," Gamboa told The Associated Press.
"But I'm a team player. I told Allard, 'You caught me by surprise but if that's what you want me to do, I'll be more than happy to do it.'"
John Mizerock, who was a finalist for the Royals' manager job that went to Tony Pena, will be moving out of the bullpen to become third base coach. Luis Silverio, a longtime member of the Royals' scouting and front office staff, will take Gamboa's place at first base.
Gamboa was hired by Tony Muser, who was fired as Royals
manager last April.
"I think anybody would prefer to be more involved in the action," Gamboa said. "But I love working for Tony Pena. He has such enthusiasm and passion for the game. I would do anything he asked of me.
"I assume there's a logical reason for it."
Gamboa, in the meantime, is enjoying a golf and fishing vacation and giving thanks that the hearing has almost fully returned in his right ear. He plans to be in Chicago for a wedding in November and said the Cook County prosecutor's office told him it would try to schedule the trials during that week for his convenience.
His experience, he said, has made him more aware of things like the recent sniper attacks in the Washington D.C. area.
"I try to comprehend the whys and wherefores of such things and such people," he said. "I can't do it."
He's also a lot more appreciative of security people.
"The fans at any event are always going to outnumber the security personnel," he said.
"Those last games of the season, I made a point to seek out the security guys and tell them, 'Thanks for being here, I don't take you people for granted anymore.'"

School president criticized for helping athlete's GPA
The Associated Press
BOILING SPRINGS, N.C. Gardner-Webb University students are protesting the actions of their administration.
Christopher White, the school's president, admitted he wrote a memo two years ago that ordered an "F"factored out of basketball player Carlos Webb's grade point average. Had the grade been included in his GPA, Webb would have been ineligible to play.
The school's trustees affirmed White's presidency after a 10-hour meeting Sept. 27.
Three faculty members resigned as a result. Since Wednesday, students have protested White's leadership and the trustees' actions outside the campus entrance.
White's meddling with a star
"I know as Christians, we're supposed to forgive," he said. "With forgiveness and mercy comes responsibility, and with responsibility is supposed to come justice — and I don't think any justice has come from this."
athlete's grade-point average has turned Patrick Woody, president of student government, and other Gardner-Webb students into campus activists.
About a dozen students picked last week at the main entrance to the campus.
"The university is basically split now," said student Ashley Warrick.
"It's founded on Christian ethics, but he's lied, he's cheated. I don't think we're going to heal with him here."
Opponents said White's action and the trustees' failure to punish him violates the spirit of the university's honor code, under which Carlos Webb was given an "F" for cheating in a religion class.
Thomas Hardin, chairman of the board of trustees, said his board concluded White's action were wrong, but the president should not be removed for a mistake made two years ago.
He said the demoted administrators were not punished for speaking out, but because they violated Webb's right to privacy. He said that the "F" remained on the student's transcript.
Students said that whether the grade remained on Webb's formal transcript matters little after Webb was allowed to play basketball for Gardner-Webb in 2000-01.
He led the Fighting Bulldogs to a National Christian College Athletic Association championship.
Running back's size is rare
Ditto for Lawrence's coach.
Trow Morrell.
The Associated Press
Both know firsthand that bringing down Jacobs, a native of Napoleanville, La., borders on the impossible.
COFFEYVILLE — If star linebacker Marcus Lawrence of Butler County had his way, he'd never have to face a player like Brandon Jacobs again.
At 6-foot-4, 245 pounds, sophomore running back Jacobs has made life miserable for defenses.
"If you don't tackle him low he's going to run right over you," said Lawrence.
Jacobs averaged 92.7 yards per game as a freshman. He has improved to 120.5 yards an outing, second-best among JCCC rushers, despite the fact he played sparingly in two games because of an ankle injury.
He had 222 yards on 18 carries and three touchdowns, all of at least 28 yards, in the first half against Highland.
He runs the 40-yard dash in 4.5
He had 204 yards and a pair of touchdowns on 20 carries against Hutchinson.
What makes Jacobs unique is the speed and the power he incorporates into his lineman-like body.
seconds and has bench-pressed 355 pounds and squat-lifted 505 pounds.
"I just try to put my shoulder down and go through people," Jacobs said. "I know I wouldn't want to have to tackle a guy my size."
Morrell said one of the best ways to bring Jacobs down was to gang-tackle him.
"You better do something different because he is a different kind of back," Morrell said. "What makes him even tougher to deal with is that he moves so well, including laterally. He's one of the best backs we've ever had in this conference."

NBA committee hopes to bring new team to Charlotte
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The NBA moved a step closer yesterday to putting a team back in Charlotte, appointing an expansion committee to look at ownership groups willing to pay the expected price of at least $300 million.
The league's Board of Governors ended a two-day meeting at which they were briefed on the prospects of adding a new franchise. One prospective ownership group includes Larry Bird and M.L. Carr, but the league said
there is no front-runner for the new team, which could begin play in 2004-05.
Charlotte lost its NBA franchise when the Hornets moved to New Orleans after last season. Since then, at least three groups have said they would like to bring a team back to Charlotte, and deputy commissioner Russ Granik said the league is near agreement with city officials on a deal to build a new arena with an NBA team as the primary tenant.
"It's a very positive step, but I don't think we can say yet that it's
The Board of Governors, comprised of a representative from each of the 29 teams, also approved a change in the bylaws for the WNBA, allowing for non-NBA ownership groups to pursue WNBA franchises in non-NBA cities.
a done deal," Granik said.
Currently, the league owns all the teams, and with the exception of the Charlotte Sting, all WNBA teams are operated by the NBA teams in their cities.
In another development, the owners approved the opening of
a leaguewide credit operation, to be run by JP Morgan Chase, from which each team would be entitled to borrow up to $100 million.
Commissioner David Stern said he did not sense opposition from any of the 29 owners to putting another team in Charlotte. Two or three prospective ownership groups are expected to meet with the expansion committee, which will be comprised of Jerry Colangelo of Phoenix, Larry Tanenbaum of Toronto, Joe Maloof of Sacramento, Lewis Katz of
New Jersey, Stan Kroenke of Denver and George Shinn of New Orleans.
"There is no front-runner," Granik said.
While a new arena is built, a new team could play one season in the Charlotte Coliseum, which lacks the luxury and club suites the Hornets needed to make money, Granik said.
Steve Belkin, the key player in one of the investment groups trying to bring an expansion team to Charlotte, said his group is the sentimental favorite because it
includes Bird and Carr.
Bird, who would be the team's general manager, has visited with city and business leaders in Charlotte. Carr, who would work in community relations, spent the summer running the WNBA's Charlotte Sting. Former Celtics general manger Jan Volk is also part of the group.

Thanks for staying, coach

Associate sports editor
Kansas men's basketball coach Roy Williams walked onto James Naismith Court in Allen Fieldhouse at 10:05 p.m. on Oct. 13, 2000, beginning his 13th year with the Jayhawks at Late Night with Roy Williams.
The crowd that customarily greets the coach with cheers and chants of "Roy." gave him an extended standing ovation. It was the fans way of thanking Williams for turning down an offer to coach at his alma mater, the University of North Carolina.
"It felt very good. It reminded me of 13 years ago," Williams said. "Coaching at Kansas is very special."
After the 16,300 fans took their seats,
Late Night 2000 "Surviving Friday the 13th on Phog Island" got underway.
The skits for the night were set on Phog Island where a man in Missouri jersey wearing a Jason mask lurked in the shadows. The skits included parodies of the movies I Know What You Did Last Summer, Charlie's Angels, The Blair Witch Project, JAWS and the television show Survivor.
"I enjoy seeing the guys acting crazy, watching the women's team and the men's team do those things that they normally don't get a chance to do," Williams said. "I've always enjoyed Late Night just for having a chance to watch them, seeing Bryant Nash see if he can dance."
The fayhawk players weren't the only people on the court showing off their dancing skills. Williams danced to the
Mystikal song "Shake it fast," after an auto tape of his "I'm staying" speech was played.
In the crowd that night were future Jayhawks Aaron Miles and Michael Lee, who will be celebrating their second Late Night as Kansas players on Friday.
At the stroke of midnight the men's team took the court for its first scrimmage of the 2000-2001 season. Current senior Nick Collison recorded one steal and two assists for the Crimson team. Classmate Kirk Hinrich went 2-for-4 behind the arc. He also racked up four assists and one steal for the Blue, who beat the Crimson team 28-24.
The 2002-2003 Late Night with Roy William will begin at 10 p.m. on Friday night in Allen Fieldhouse.

Sex column creating career?
Maybe not but columnist Meghan Bainum is turning ing heads
heads
MANHESTER
ESSEX
By Aaron Passman
apassman@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Meghan Bainum never thought that a little sex would take her this far.
Bainum's weekly sex column in The University Daily Kansan has garnered her unexpected attention from media outlets such as Inside Edition, Playboy.com and The New York Times.
The column, which started in the fall of 2001, grew out of a journalism class project on fetishes and turn-ons. The Topeka senior said she had to "beg" Kansan editors for an entire semester before they finally caved and gave her the column.
"The University needed more sex in the paper," Bainum said."It shouldn't just be a once in a while thing."
Bainum's media exposure bloomed last semester with an article by the Kansas bureau of The Associated Press, followed by a Chronicle of Higher
"After that it just kind of exploded," Bainum said.
Within the last month The New York Times, Fox News, Inside Edition, Playboy.com, Esquire Magazine, radio stations in Mexico and Spain and student papers nation-wide have all done stories on her.
"It's crazy because I'm really kind of a shy person in real life," Bainum said. "I prefer to be behind the media rather than being the focus of it."
But Bainum was in front of the cameras Tuesday when Inside Edition came to KU to film an interview with her for an upcoming segment on their program.
Education story in June and another Associated Press article in September.
Alanna Stack, Inside Edition story coordinator, said the idea for the segment came from a recent New York Times story featuring Bainum, but his show had been planning a program on college sex columnists for a while.
"We found it representative of a growing trend towards more open discussions of sexuality," Stack said. "Obviously college has always been a very sexual place, but what's interesting here is that it's basically a University sponsored discussion."
Bainum said she wanted to help people become more comfortable with their sexuality and end discrimination against those that didn't have

Campaign stresses importance of one vote
By Caleb Nothwehr
cnothwehr@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
It's tough to save Johnson when he's already dead.
President Andrew Johnson, that is.
Through the Save Johnson campaign, Student Senate is stressing the importance of voting. The campaign refers to the 1868 impeachment trial of President Johnson, who was saved from impeachment by only one vote. Senate is using that vote as the inspiration for its voter registration drive.
Jeff Allmon, Student Senate community affairs director, said the campaign focused on the difference one vote could make.
"It's not so much that voting is important, but that your vote is important," the Wichita senior said.
Allmon said some of the inspiration for the campaign came from the Save Ferris slogan in the movie Ferris Beutler's Day Off.
The idea also takes cues from the I Agree With Lee campaign that took place on the KU campus last spring. During the

Softball field without restrooms, amenities

Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas softball team found itself stuck in the mud last weekend.
Jayhawk Field did not have a tarp on it when a storm hit Lawrence at 4:30 a.m. Sunday. The 9:30 a.m. softball game was delayed for two hours because softball coaches and staff had to fix the damages.
Tracy Bunge, softball coach, said softball and baseball coaches and staff maintained their own fields because so much work had to be done daily.
"The infield has to be raked every day," she said. "The mound has to be fixed every day. The dugouts have to be fixed every day. It's not like basketball where the facilities are already set and they just have to dust the court."
Brad Nachtigal, director of facilities and events for the University of Kansas
Athletic Corporation, said insufficient public amenities were another problem with the softball fields.
"The undesirable part about Jayhawk Field is the fact that there are no permanent restrooms, concessions or ticket locations," he said.
Bunge said her field ranked at the bottom of the Big 12 Conference in regards to amenities.
She said Al Bohl, Kansas athletics director, knew the facility fell behind its competition and had made improving Jayhawk Field a priority. In order to do that, the Athletics Department and Kansas University Endowment Association must secure funds for a new facility through private donations.
Hoglund Ballpark, where the baseball team plays, was donated to the University through private funding. It has restrooms, concessions and a ticket office.
"It's going extremely well," Bohl said. Bunge said that she did not think the facility kept her from attracting new players but it made recruiting harder.
million.
Both Sandy Smith, junior infielder, and Serena Settlemier, sophomore pitcher, said they expected a Division I school to have a better field than the one at the University. They said the fields at their high schools were just as good as Iavawk Field.
Four University of Kansas faculty members spoke out yesterday against a possible war with Iraq.
"We're the only team in the Big 12 with no big stadium," Smith said.
They urged audience members to make their opposition known to Congress.
Bohl said the estimated cost of the project to improve Jayhawk Field was $4

She said Nebraska had a heated outfield, restrooms in the stadium and even bathrooms in the dugouts.
Panel opposes war on Iraq
"We go and beat teams like Nebraska and just show them we don't need to be sprucy to be good," Settlemier said.
Both players agreed that the current field would not stop them from winning.
"We do have a voice," said Burdett.

Loomis was joined by Charles Epp, associate professor of public administration, Robert Rowland, professor of communication studies, and Carl Strikwerda, associate dean and professor of history. The four were panelists in a discussion about the United States conflict with Iraq.
Panelists spoke to about 60 people
about domestic issues related to a possible war with Iraq. Issues discussed included civil liberties, alternatives to war and the justification for war used by its supporters.
Certain policies that emerged after Sept. 11 have endangered civil liberties, Epp said. He gave examples of the indefinite detainment of citizens and non-cit-

Parolee suspect in death of day-care provider
WICHITA — A parole faces first-degree murder charges in the shooting death of a day-care provider.
Nathenial Terrell Hurt is accused of the shooting of Nicole J. Palma, a 30-year-old mother of two boys who ran her own day-care business.
A gunman shot and killed Palma on Friday in her front yard. Police arrested Hurt about two hours after the shooting.
Police said the two apparently had a relationship and considered the crime a domestic violence case.
Hurt, 30, has also been charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon — a 9 mm handgun — and criminal possession of a firearm.
He remained in the Sedgwick County Bank on a $750,000 bond.
Hurt was released from prison last October after serving almost three years for a 1998 conviction of aggravated battery, said Bill Miskell of the Kansas Department of Corrections.

Report blows whistle on U.S. weapons tests
WASHINGTON—The United States secretly tested chemical and biological weapons on American soil during the 1960s, newly declassified Pentagon reports show.
The tests included releasing deadly nerve agents in Alaska and spraying bacteria over Hawaii, according to the documents obtained Tuesday. The United States also tested nerve agents in Canada and Britain in conjunction with those two countries.
The summaries of more than two dozen tests show that biological and chemical tests were much more wide spread than the military has previously acknowledged.
The Pentagon released records earlier this year showing that chemical and biological agents had been sprayed on ships at sea.
The Defense Department planned to formally release summaries of 28 biological and chemical weapons tests at a House Veterans Affairs subcommittee hearing yesterday.
Protestors aim to block use of police records
BERKELEY, Calif. — A group of students arrested at a rally supporting the Palestinian cause are fighting to block university officials from using police records at their disciplinary hearing.
The University of California, Berkeley students said in a court petition that the school couldn't use videotapes and other records of their arrests because charges were dropped and a factual finding of innocence was issued.
The university says student conduct hearings are separate from criminal proceedings and that the records are necessary to enable the students to answer questions such as: "Have you ever been arrested?"
The students filed their petition Monday in Alameda County Superior Court.

Nobel Prize won for early cancer diagnosis
STOCKHOLM, Sweden — American, Japanese and Swiss scientists won the Nobel Prize in chemistry yesterday for developing methods of identifying and analyzing "biological macromolecules," such as proteins.
John B. Fenn of the United States and Koichi Tanaka of Japan will share half of the $1 million prize, and Kurt Wuethrich of Switzerland will get the other half.
Their work has revolutionized the development of new medicines and has shown early promise in early diagnosis of some types of cancer, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences said.

Universities compete for voters
By Caleb Nothwehr
cnothehr@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Students at Kansas State University and the University of Kansas will compete to see which campus can register more voters during the KU/Colorado and KState/Oklahoma State games this weekend.
KU Student Senate will have voter registration tables in the concourse of Memorial Stadium before and during the game.
"The idea is that it's a captive audience," said Jeff Allmon, Student Senate community affairs director.
Zac Cook, student body president at K-State, came up with the idea of the competition and approached KU's student body president Jonathan Ng.
The cost of losing the contest could be high for student senators. Although no official rules have been set yet, Ng said both schools were considering having the losing executive committee sing the opposing team's alma mater at the KU/K-state football game Nov. 2. Cook suggested that the losers wear the opposing school's colors during the game.
Allmon said the weekend would provide healthy competition, but he made it clear that he wanted to win.
"We want to prove that we're a more politically active campus, and they're a bunch of tractor-driving, politically inactive red-necks."Allmon said.

Couple spends weekends saving lives

Meagan Kennedy and Ryan Ostendorf brave risky streets every weekend to save lives. This is just their part-time job.
Kennedy, Burlington sophomore, and Ostendorf, Gothenburg, Neb. sophomore, not only work together for American Medical Response in Topeka but the two are engaged. Ostendorf, 25, is a paramedic and Kennedy, 21, is an emergency medical technician intermediate.
"What sucks about our job is that we don't have a job unless people are injured," Kennedy said.
The couple said they averaged more than 10 calls per day on the weekends. Most of the calls are street calls, where they go to an emergency. They also work stand-bys at high school football games, wrestling matches and events like the Senior Olympics.

"I want to be a doctor because I never really had much of a problem dealing with it," Ostendorf said. "I would feel much worse not being able to do anything."
The couple met at work two years ago. When they first met, they worked full-time doing 24-hour shifts together. They would go in to work at 8 a.m., and leave at 8 a.m. the next morning. They did this every other day for three days a week. In order to become a paramedic, Ostendorf went to school for more than a year and a half. To become an EMT-I, Kennedy went to school for a year.
Bob Brautman, field operations supervisor at American Medical Response, has known Kennedy and Ostendorf since they started working there. He said the two worked great together.
Both reduced their hours to part-time when they enrolled at the University of Kansas a year and a half ago. They are majoring in premed. Kennedy wants to become an emergency physician while Ostendorf wants to become a cardiologist.
"They are professionals," Brautman said. "They do not let their social lives get in the way in their work life. They do not cue in
that they are a couple at work."
Kennedy said even though Ostendorf was her superior, it did not put a strain on their relationship.

Thirteen University of Kansas students are attempting to start the first Asian-American sorority in Kansas.
The women plan to put in a bid to Alpha Phi Gamma, a California-based Asian-American interest sorority, in the spring.
Sota Thach, a part-Vietnamese, part-Cambodian Wichita sophomore, is leading
the group in its pursuit. She said she hoped the sorority's establishment would attract more Asians from outside Kansas.
"I thought I wanted to rush when I first started here, but none of the groups really caught my attention" she said, "think if there had been an Asian sorority, with people like me, it would have."
Thach said the women interested in the sorority were from varying backgrounds.
Jazzmin Chun, a half-Filipino,
half-Chinese Kansas City, Mo. junior, said the women were getting to know one another this semester.
"We want to get a solid foundation to work from and keep growing." Chun said.

'Proud to be a Jayhawk' Fund-raiser
This week
The KU game-day experience includes responsible pre-game tailgating, made possible by "Proud to be a Jayhawk" fundraising. Fans can participate by purchasing football programs; $1 of every program sold this season will go to four beneficiaries: KU's Korean War Memorial Fund, KU Marching Band, KU/K-State Phi Gamma Delta Run for Leukemia, and KU sports clubs.
Please remember when you tailgate:
Alcohol may be consumed only during a three-hour pre-game period in designated parking lots. Alcohol may not be brought into the stadium. Underage drinking or unlawful conduct will not be tolerated.
The Marching Jayhawks have been an important part of the color, pageantry, and tradition of KU for more than 100 years. A KU football game would not be complete without the band's march down the Hill into the stadium or the traditional KU pre-game and half-time shows.
Membership in the band is open to all students, regardless of major. The "Proud to be a Jayhawk" program will help fund new instruments,
So while you cheer on the 'Hawks and even if you don't tailgate -please consider supporting this worthwhile project. If you want to do more than purchase a copy of today's football program, please contact the KU Endowment Association. (888) 653-6111.

New fireworks ordinance will cause more problems
The city commissioners of Lawrence are wrestling with the issue of whether to ban all personal fireworks use within city limits. This would mean that anything from air bombs down to handheld sparklers would be illegal and confiscated.
It's a policy meant to protect, but it could actually do more harm than good.
James Henry, city commissioner, said when your fun interferes when another person's safety, that is wrong.
He cited the case of a pile of mulch that lit on fire due to a wayward bottle rocket, which are illegal to buy in Kansas.
This leads to the main concerns.
The problem isn't necessarily the total oreven partial ban on fireworks in the city of Lawrence. The problem is both the enforcement of such a ban and the enforcement area.
The police are not omnipotent. There are a limited number of them and therefore a finite quantity of places they can be at any given time. The Lawrence Police Department has its hands full the week of July 4. To add one more requirement could possibly overburden the system and ensure no crimes are effectively contained.
"What we try to do is the best enforcement possible with the laws in place before us," said Sgt. Mike Patrick, Lawrence Police Department.
However, the area the police have to cover is large and it is doubtful that they will be able to effectively enforce the ban
Additionally, it will still be possible to

buy and set off fireworks right outside of Lawrence. With the good possibility that the other cities and the government of Douglas County will not enact similar legislation, the chances are high that Lawrence will have to fight fireworks with fire all by their lonesome.
Not only will the blaze spread out more quickly than in the city, help in the form of the fire and medical department will be slower to arrive.
City council members will likely discuss the topic at their Oct. 22 meeting, which would give suppliers notice on the current state of the law well before they purchase items for the Fourth of July.
One potential scenario is that Lawrence citizens won't risk confiscation by setting off Roman candles inside city limits.
Residents of Lawrence can speak their mind on this issue by attending the commission meeting, located in city hall at 6th and Massachusetts streets, on October 22 at 6:35 p.m.
An outright ban, or even a partial ban, is not an inevitability. Speak your mind on the issue and convince the government that the ban on fireworks will cause more harm than good.
Dan Osman for the Editorial Board.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Sebelius is no Republican
If the reporter had investigated, he would have found that there is nothing Republican about Sebelius. As a state legislator, Sebelius never met a tax increase she did not like.
On Sept. 30, The University Daily Kansan ran a story about a group of Republicans who support Kathleen Sebelius for Governor ("GOP Votes Defecting to Sebelius"). The article never bothered to look at the records of both Sebelius and Tim Shallenburger, the Republican candidate, to see if either candidate really has any appeal to the opposite parties.
On abortion, Sebelius voted in favor of taxpayer-funded abortions and against parental notification. In 1993, Sebelius voted against protecting the American flag from desecration.
The candidate with appeal to voters in the opposite party is Tim Shallenburger. In 1986, Shallenburger entered public service as an environmentalist. Tim worked with the EPA to reduce pollution in streams and clear piles of contaminated rock in his home district.
It comes as no surprise to many of us that the Kansan would use what Bob Murray, the Shallenburger press secretary, cited as a "publicity gimmick" to paint Sebelius as a Reagan Republican and Shallenburger as someone who is to the right of Attila the Hun.
The Kansan article contained several quotes from the Republicans for Sebelius group and Democrats. The Republican responses to this stunt were buried in the story, and the Republics for Sebelius were never asked what is Republican about Sebellius.
Many students on campus want the Kansan to be objective in its reporting. We could care less if the editorial page is liberal or conservative. The students should get a clear distinction between the front page and the editorial page.

Anti-war rhetoric not welcome
As much as I totally disagree with the rhetoric displayed in the Osama Bin
Laden advertisement in the Oct. 8 issue of the Kansan, I totally support its timing.
I want those who are opposed to the upcoming war with Iraq to speak their mind because now is the time to do it. When, and if, this war does take place and our American troops are put in a position of possibly losing their lives; it will not be the time for demonstrations, bickering and propaganda — but rather a time for solidarity and a show of support for our troops.
We cannot have the divisions of the country weighing down the minds of our troops during wartime as it did in Vietnam. To contribute to that would be nothing short of un-American.

I am writing today in response the Oct. 3 editorial entitled, "University Needs New System to Track Sweatshop Labor." This piece explained that the goal of the global fair-labor issues group at the University of Kansas is to ensure that goods bearing the KU logo are made under appropriate working conditions. The Fair Labor Association (FLA) is an important part in the effort to help move KU closer to attaining that goal.
The article mentions that "the global fair labor issues group wants updated reports detailing companies in noncompliance," as well as "reports of companies working to correct sweatshop abuses." Thanks to sweeping changes made by the FLA Board of Directors last April, the FLA will be posting on its Web site the reports of its independent external monitors, as well as the names of the FLA companies that are using each factory. This is quite an arduous task and the FLA staff is currently poring through these monitoring reports — the first round of which will be posted on our Web site by the end of the year.
The FLA is proud to have KU as a member and we look forward to the continued growth of our relationship.

PERSPECTIVES
Candidates need to make education positions clear
Monica White/Kansan
As if students at the University of Kansas didn't already have enough to worry about, their educational future lies in the hands of two gubernatorial candidates who refuse to make a definitive statement about education.
COMMENTARY
Both Kansas candidates claim to have a top-notch educational funding plan to revive a failing economy and budget system.
What is most disturbing is that the two candidates aren't filling the voters in on exactly what their plan is.
Democrat Kathleen Sebelius and Republican Tim Shallenburger both claim to be advocates for the educational future of Kansas, but getting a clear answer from either of them is like pulling teeth.
COMMENTARY
Sebelius has yet to recommend a way to reach a suitable education plan for all Kansans. She has also not yet taken a position on one of the most important issues on many voter's minds, which is the possibility of a tax raise to enhance current educational systems all over the state
Sebelius's Republican opponent Shal lenburger has been a little more clear.
According to Sebelius' Web site, www.ksgovernor.com, her "commitment to education is unwavering," but her stance on educational funding remains unclear.
Meagan Kelleher
opinion@kansan.com
Shallenburger has recommended simply cutting wasteful school spending and avoiding tax cuts in an attempt to boost the state's failing economy. Wouldn't a strong educational plan boost Kansas's economy too?
On Shallenburger's Web site, www.timshallenburger.com, Shallenburger said that "education should be our state's top priority."
With that commitment he said "we can make our schools and universities the best in the nation." What the site lacks is a clear-cut plan that explains how spending in Kansas's schools will be cut.
Voters are being encouraged to vote on the idea that once the winning candidate gets into office, the educational plan will be examined and the best possible solution will be presented them.
This is not a responsible way to garner votes.

economy and if Kansas is lacking a strong economy now, then the last issue voters want to gamble with is education. Shallenburger and Sebelius need to focus their efforts on coming up with an actual education plan, something more than possibly cutting spending or avoiding tax cuts.
Carrot Top must be stopped.
Perhaps because this state's budget deficit is so complex and such a huge burden on whomever wins this race, Shallenburger and Sebelius are wary about introducing any plan that could get them stuck in a corner.
However, presenting policy for the future is what voters base their selections on, and with nothing but a "let's get into office first then we will look it over" line voters don't have much to work with. Ironically, many voters remain uneducated themselves about the election, and are not aware of the various possibilities for education funding.
Viva la vulva.
Hopefully, Shallenburger and Sebelius will stop sidestepping the issue of education funding and get straight with the people of Kansas.
To win confidence of voters before the polls close in November, the candidates need to gain confidence in their own issues first.

New signs may improve Alumni Place parking
By Matt Stumpff
mstumpff@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Improved sinage might help curb the problem of illegal parking at scholarship hall lots, the University of Kansas parking department said yesterday.
The department plans to install larger signs near the Alumni Place parking lots, which residents say fill with automobiles Thursday through Saturday nights because of the lots' proximity to the Wheel Cafe, 507 W. 14th St., and The Hawk, 1340 Ohio St.
Unauthorized drivers might not notice the current lot signs and think it's parking for the Wheel, said John Westerhaus, Overland Park junior.
The Stephenson Hall resident said he had noticed more towing
in the parking lot for this year at the hall located at 1404 Alumni Place.
Donna Hultine, interim director of the parking department, said residents might notice an increase in towing partly because the department added a full-time night position to patrol the lots. Hultine said the parking department towed 23 cars in September. She did not have past figures.
Hultine said the parking department made the decision to post larger signs at a parking commission meeting Tuesday.
"I think if people understand that it was University property, they wouldn't park there," Hultine said.
Rob Farha, owner of the Wheel Cafe, said he rarely had customers come back and say their car had been towed.
"When they do, they don't hold
it against me," Farha said. "They know I can't do anything about it."
Jen Marcee; Leavenworth freshman, said a friend visiting her apartment had her car towed last week from a scholarship hall lot. Her friend didn't see the signs, she said.
April Benson, Grand Island, Neb., sophomore and Sellars Hall resident said she had to use the lot at 12th and Louisiana streets on weekend nights. Benson said she didn't feel safe walking three blocks from the lot to her hall at 1443 Alumni Place.
Facilities operations will create new signs for the Alumni Place lots when the parking department decides what information should be on the signs. Hultine said she planned to have new signs up in about two weeks.

Students start Model U.N. group, prepare for debates
By George Schulz
gschulz@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
University of Kansas students interested in international politics have formed a Model United Nations club on campus, and the group plans to eventually participate in Model U.N. conventions with students nationwide.
Model U.N. clubs simulate hearings and debates on current issues of global politics and international affairs addressed by real U.N.delegates.
Laura Rose Barr, Villa Park, Ill., freshman and president of the new group, led the effort to form a Model U.N. club on campus. She said Model U.N. clubs were already in place in other schools around the country, including the University of Illinois, Duke University, Harvard University and Columbia University. Barr said she had been involved in her high school's Model U.N. club.
"It changed my life," Barr said. "I'm now planning on going into a career in international politics."
Barr found an adviser, Donald Haider-Markel, assistant professor of political science, and the group had its first meeting Sept. 30. A second meeting was held Monday to elect officers, and another meeting for interested students will be held soon, Barr
"It changed my life," Barr said. "I'm now planning on going into a career in international politics."
Laura Rose Barr President, Model Untied Nations Club and Villa Park, III., freshman
said. About 35-40 students have expressed interest in the club so far.
"I suspect the interest will be broader once more students find out about Model U.N." said Haider-Markel.
The group has applied to the Student Organizations and Leadership Development Center, and later, the group will work out how to get funds for Model U.N. students to travel to other cities for conventions.
The conventions will include student groups from around the country, each composed of 10 to 15 students and assigned a country to represent during debates and committee hearings. Each group will hold positions on current issues, taking into consideration the political, cultural and social make up of the country it's
representing.
Students had varied feelings about joining a Model U.N. club.
"I wouldn't do it because it seems like a lot of work," said Laura Nolle, Naperville, Ill., freshman. "But I think there are still a lot of people who would be interested in it."
Frank Auten, Lawrence senior said he would consider joining the club. He said students should understand how important of a role the United States played in the United Nations.
The KU club plans to travel to St. Louis for the Midwest Model U.N. in February for its first convention. A smaller convention will tentatively be held Nov. 17 in the Kansas Union. Individual KU
students will represent countries on a security council committee simulation.The United States,the United Kingdom,France,China and Russia are permanently on the security council with other countries rotating throughout. The smaller simulation on campus would hopefully prepare new Model U.N.students for what a conference would be like,Haider-Markel said.
Barr said she hoped the new group could someday make it to Model U.N.conventions in Europe.

Chemistry ranks first in female faculty
By Kyle Ramsey
kramsey@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas' chemistry department has the highest percentage of female faculty out of the top 50 chemistry departments in the nation, officials announced yesterday.
A recent survey conducted by Chemical and Engineering News ranked KU first, up from last year's No.2 rank.
The seven female faculty members account for 29 percent of the department's 24 faculty members.
The national average among top 50 programs for female faculty is 12 percent, according to the survey.
Chemical and Engineering News used the top 50 chemistry departments picked by the National Science Foundation. The Foundation selects the top 50 each year from private and public universities based on federal research expenditures. The University ranks 34th in its lineup.
Rutgers' chemistry department, which was first in last year's ranking, ranked second with 10 female faculty members who account for 27 percent of its faculty. Pennsylvania State University's chemistry department ranked third in the survey with seven women who comprise 22 percent of the faculty.
Kristin Bowman-James, who has been a chemistry professor at the University since 1975, credits the department's rank to its open job searches and the increasing number of females who study chemistry.
"There's a fairly large percentage of graduate students now who are women," Bowman-James said. "We've found we have a fair number of women apply, and they
are good."
Heather Desaire, assistant professor of chemistry, began teaching at the University in August. She said she had heard about the faculty position from her mentor at University of California-Berkley, from where she graduated in December 2001.
"It's not just a guy thing," she said.
Desaire said having female professors in the department encouraged female students who were interested in chemistry.

Senate spent approximately $500 on 100 T-shirts for the Save Johnson campaign. Members are selling the shirts for $5. By yesterday, Senate had sold nearly half of its shirts.
The word is starting to spread about Save Johnson.
Jessica Scott approached the Senate table on Wescoe Beach to find out what Save Johnson meant.
"It's a good idea because you hear about how apathetic teenagers are about voting," said Scott, a Little Rock, Ark., freshman.
Other students hadn't yet found out about the meaning of the campaign.

She said her family was proud of her, though sometimes her column made them a bit uncomfortable.
"It's made people look at our family a little bit differently," said Bainum's freshman sister Amy. "But nothing in our family has really changed. She's still just who she always was."
Amy said her sister's campus notoriety had brought her attention, but stressed the two had different personalities.
"It leads to some interesting comments from my friends each Thursday." Amy said. "I get a lot of 'Viva la vulval' and the fisting article, too — I haven't heard the end of that one yet."
Bainum said she hoped to keep working as a sex writer after graduating in December, but was open to anything.
"I'll write for anything that would let me be experimental."
she said.
Bainum will fly to Chicago later this month to do a shoot for Playboy.com.
She said she would be paid $1,500 for the shoot, but would get "substantially more" if the pictures ended up in the magazine's print edition.
"I'd go all the way nude, I'm not ashamed of my body," she said. "I'd be a hypocrite if I preached sexual comfort and then didn't want to show myself. I'd have to kick my own ass."
Bainum, however, wasn't sure if she would end up totally nude in those pictures.
That attitude still seems to allure students to her tales of sexual debauchery.
"It's pretty interesting," said Joe Rogers, Overland Park senior.
"I think anybody is qualified to do it, but it seems to be mostly opinion to me. With sex it's almost always a matter of opinion."
And viewpoints go both ways because not everyone appreciates Bainum's pursuit to

St. Lawrence Center priest Vince Krische said he was opposed to every aspect of Bainum's column.
"It's exploitation, and it's not literature worthy of a higher education institution," he said.
Despite anyone's opinions, Bainum said she would still push her message to the people, no matter the medium or position.
"There are always new doors to be opened for the sex columnist," she said.

Indigenous films document lives
By George Schnutz
gschulz@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A screening of videos produced by indigenous people in southern Mexico attracted about 100 students last night to Ecumenical Christian Ministries, 1204 Oread Ave.
Sponsored by the Chiapas Media Project, Student Senate and the Latin American Solidarity student organization, the screening included three documentaries: Zapata's Garden, Song of the Earth and Defending the Forests.
The films are part of a series of nearly 20 produced so far by members of the Zapatista indigenous communities of Chiapas and Guerrero, two states located on the southern tip of Mexico.
The films documented everything from community gardens and environmental activism to traditional Zapatista songs and dances.
Alexandria Halkin, founder and director of the Chiapas Media Project based in Chicago, said that, by 2004, the project would be turned over completely to the people of Chiapas and Guerrero.
The Chiapas Media Project, established in 1998, has supplied 54 video cameras to 47 indigenous communities in Chiapas and Guerrero, as well as editing equipment and training in camera use and film making to 220 people.
The films would still be shown and sold at universities and film festivals around the
world.
On Jan. 1, 1994, Zapatista rebels initiated an insurgency against the Mexican government, demanding that the country's constitution be amended to include basic rights for indigenous people.
The date coincided with the implementation of the North American Free Trade Agreement—a trade pact that helped dissolve trade barriers between the United States, Canada and Mexico.
Leaders of the Zapatistas have said trade agreements such as NAFTA dilute the autonomous authority of indigenous groups over vital tracts of land and other resources in Mexico.
Since then, armed conflicts have occurred in and around Chiapas between military and paramilitary soldiers and the Zapatistas.
Access to the Internet has allowed the Zapatistas the opportunity to contact supporters worldwide.
Rebekah Moses, Great Bend senior and member of Latin American Solidarity, said the project would help the Zapatistas convey their message to the world using their own media skills.
Other students said they liked the idea of allowing indigenous people to document their own lives.
"Giving the equipment to them was much better than just going down there," said Chad Schroeder, Newton senior.

Cancer patient testifies against KC pharmacist
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Ovarian cancer patient Georgia Hayes wants former pharmacists Robert R. Courtney to have to look at her for a very long time.
Hayes testified yesterday in her lawsuit against Courtney, who has acknowledged watering down her chemotherapy drugs. He faces a possible 30-year prison sentence.
"If I had my wish, they would paint all of our faces on his cell block wall so that when he goes to sleep at night, we are the last thing he sees and when he wakes up in
the morning, we are the first thing he sees." Hayes said.
Hayes sometimes cried during her 53 minutes of testimony. She described her fight with the disease from her first diagnosis of cancer in 1996 until today.
Hayes was the last witness for the plaintiffs.
Hayes' lawsuit is the first of more than 400 filed in Jackson County Circuit Court against Courtney to go to trial. About 300 lawsuits that also named drug-makers Eli Lilly & Co. and Bristol-Myers Squibb were settled Monday.
During yesterday's testimony.
prominent cancer doctor Robert K. Oldham testified that Hayes probably missed her best chance to cure the disease because she received diluted medicine from the pharmacy Courtney operated.
Oldham, founder of the oncology department at Vanderbilt University, said that Hayes was in a good position to fight her cancer before she got Courtney's diluted medications.
But instead, the cancer cells in her body may have become more resistant to treatment because Hayes' medication was only partial strength.
Survivor of killings talks
The Associated Press
WICHITA — The sole survivor of a quadruple killing identified in court yesterday brothers Jonathan and Reginald Carr as the armed intruders who terrorized the five friends in December 2000.
The courtroom identification was a major setback for the defense of Reginald Carr because the woman had been able to identify only his brother during a preliminary hearing last year.
She told jurors she had been unable at that time to identify Reginald Carr because he had changed his appearance since the attacks.
He had shaved his head and intermittently wore glasses at the hearing.
But in photos shown to her at the hospital just hours after the shootings, the woman picked out both men as the intruders who
drove the group to a soccer field on Dec. 15, 2000 and shot them all, according to testimony and evidence presented yesterday.
The Cars are on trial in Sedgwick County District Court charged with 113 criminal acts stemming from a nine-day crime spree that left five people dead. Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty.
In the most notorious of the crimes, the brothers are accused of abducting the five people from a Wichita home the night of Dec. 14, 2000, forcing them to withdraw money from automated teller machines and forcing them to have sex before shooting them in a soccer field early the next morning. Killed were Aaron Sander, 29; Heather Muller, 25; Brad Heyka, 27; and Jason Befort, 26.
One woman, then a 25-year-
old teacher, survived.
The Carrs also are accused in the Dec. 11, 2000, shooting of Ann Walenta, 55, who later died. The case also includes a Dec. 7, 2000 robbery.
During that robbery, Andrew Schreiber was abducted and forced to withdraw cash from an ATM machine.
yesterday, jurors heard for the first time the emotional testimony of the survivor as she recounted how the friends were forced to kneel in the snow-covered field.
She was at one end next to her boyfriend, Befort.
"As I was kneeling, there was a shot. And I don't remember, we were all screaming, but I can remember hearing Aaron say, 'please no.'
"There was another one, and another one, and then another one."

Heating bills for Kansas residents likely to drop
The Associated Press
WICHITA - It could be good winter for Kansas Gas Service's 635,000 Kansas customers, whose heating bills are likely to drop by as much as 20 percent.
The utility says it has locked in lower natural gas prices with fixed-price contracts. That's particularly good news because the U.S. Energy Department expects consumers nationwide to face higher heating costs this winter.

Service, said the forecast for lower bills assumes that customers will use about the same amount of natural gas that they did last year.
Meanwhile, Aquila, which serves about 100,000 customers across Kansas, says its bills for October will be about 21 percent higher than last October.
"Forecasting a percentage, it's too difficult to do not knowing how cold the weather's going to be," Minter said.
The difference in forecasts for the two utilities is a result of their
Last December and January, Kansas Gas Service asked for permission to do what's called a "swap," which has the effect of fixing the price of natural gas, Springe said.
approach to buying natural gas, said David Springe, chief economist for the Citizens Utility Ratepayer Board.
"We allowed them to do this, so they have locked in very low prices given the timing of when they did this," he said. "They're not going to go up with the market."
Kansas Gas Service says it has locked in lower natural gas prices with fixed-price contracts.
Aquila also is working to lock in rates for more of its supply. The utility has asked for permission to charge $1 per customer per month to implement a program where it would buy "call options"
and other financial instruments to set an upper cap on natural gas prices, Spring said.
Aquila customers are somewhat insulated from the wholesale market since the utility bought about 50 percent to 60 percent of its current natural gas supply at a fixed price, Minter said.
Aquila will buy about 40 percent to 50 percent of its normal usage supply on the open market, he said.
Kansas Gas Service bought about 90 percent of its natural gas
for a normal winter volume at a fixed price.
A significant cold snap could force Kansas Gas Service to go to the open market if it depletes its normal supply. Then bills could rise toward the end of winter, Johnson said.
rosemary Foreman, a spokeswoman for the Kansas Corporation Commission, stressed that the market moves on normal market forecasts.
She said it's difficult to predict this early what the winter might bring.
Republican advertising features hip-hop rhythms
The Associated Press
LITTLE ROCK — Between P. Diddy's hip-hop rhythms, Brandy's slow grooves and a rate-record segment called "Pump It or Dump It," urban radio listeners are hearing advertisements urging them to vote Republican.
"Lots of people are sort of puzzled by it," said John Altevogt, a Kansas Republican activist who arranged the ad campaign. "For my mind, the puzzle element should come from why we haven't been in these areas before instead of why we are there now."
In one of the advertisements, a black man tells listeners that his white co-workers became wealthy investing in their company's 401-k plans in the 1980s while Democrats including the Rev. Jesse Jackson encouraged him to spurn wealth. Other advertisements tout Republican-backed school voucher programs and tax plans.
Altevogt bought the commercial time through his advocacy group, Council for a Better Government.
Arkansas is one of 12 states the group is targeting in a $1.5 million effort to reach demographic groups that haven't traditionally voted for the party of Lincoln, he said.
"It is a minority outreach program designed to make it so it is not an oddity for Republicans to reach out to people of color, blue
collar workers, Hispanics, the whole nine yards," Altevogt said.
The group's advertisements also are running in Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, New Jersey, New Mexico, North Carolina and North Dakota.
Through polling and demographic studies, he said the group determined Arkansas was a "swing area" where its efforts could make a difference.
However, the head of the Arkansas Democratic Party labeled the advertising "race-baiting."
"Instead of doing things to help the African-American community, they design advertisements that are downright disgusting and play them on African-American radio," Michael Cook said.
At Little Rock's predominantly black Philander Smith College, many students said the Republican advertisements have gotten their attention.
"It does make a difference. Some of the things they say are positive. It changes your opinions a little," said Chaffa Key, 19.
But Marcus Brand, 20, said the advertisements haven't changed his thinking.
"I vote Democrat because Democrats seem to go for the minorities and Republicans seem to for the higher classes and the rich," he said.
voucher programs touted in the radio spots would take money from public schools, said Arrysen Davis, 20.
"I listen to the advertisements, but they will not change my vote. I attended public schools and I really feel (Republicans) do not care about public schools," she said.
The Republican school
Black voters swayed by the Altevogt's efforts could make a difference in Arkansas' U.S. Senate race, one of the closest in the country, said Anthony Hulen, spokesman for Republican incumbent Sen. Tim Hutchinson.
Hulen said he was surprised when he first heard the advertisements.
"It shows that there is a voice for change out there. There is a political stereotype that black voters are Democrats," he said. "This is going to be a very close race and every vote will mean so much."
Rev. Jesse C. Turner, director of the Pine Bluff-based Interested Citizens for Voter Registration Inc., believes Altevogt's strategy can work.
"The Democratic Party is deeply ingrained into the minds of African-American voters in Arkansas. It is so ingrained that you have ministers and pastors and other people who always promote Democratic candidates regardless of their records," he said.
Workers to hoist statue today
The Associated Press
TOPEKA — Construction workers spent yesterday trying to fix problems keeping a statue of a Kansa Indian from atop the Statehouse.
The statue, "Ad Astra," remained in repose on a flatbed truck on the Capitol grounds. Workers had turned it on its side so that working on its base would be easier.
The crew expected a crane to hoist the statue into place again Thursday morning. The statue first rose to the dome Monday, as hundreds of spectators watched, but came down again a few hours later.
Winds are a factor. If they are stronger than 15 miles per hour, the crew is likely to call off an attempt to raise the statue.
"Things are going very well," said Gregg Lynch, the contractor's project manager. "The weather forecast looks very good right now."
The statue, by Salina sculptor Dick Bergen, weighs 4,100 pounds and stands 22 feet tall. Its name comes from the state motto, "Ad Astra Per Aspera," — "To the Stars Through Difficulties."
The base of the statue has a 2-inch-thick stainless steel plate, as does the top of the cupola on the dome. With the statue in place, workers are supposed to thread 17 bolts through both plates to join them together.
On Monday, the two plates were about an eighth of an inch apart when workers discovered that five bolts wouldn't tighten enough. Lynch said the holes in
the two plates were mismatched by a fraction of an inch.
Workers brought "Ad Astra" down and yesterday used drills to redo the holes in both plates
Gregg said the extra work wouldn't add to the project's cost, which eventually reached $1.6 million, including work on the dome, casting the statue and building a new plaza on the south Capitol grounds.
Private donations are expected to provide at least $1.5 million.
Until a decade ago, a 750-watt bulb topped the dome. The state then replaced it with a 250-watt high-pressure sodium bulb, which burns brighter and saves energy.
An 1889 plan called for a statue of Ceres, the Roman goddess of agriculture.
MetLife settles lawsuit with families
The Associated Press
across the nation
TOPEKA — The state treasurer's office and Metropolitan Life Insurance Co. have settled a federal lawsuit that the state agency filed over death benefits for thousands of railroad workers.
Treasurer Tim Shallenburger and the company announced the agreement yesterday. It could affect the families or heirs of up to 7,600 Kansas railroad workers and tens of thousands more
The agency filed its U.S. District Court lawsuit in February, seeking permission to audit the MetLife records, citing its authority to collect unclaimed property.
Shallenburger worried that the families or heirs of many deceased railroad workers did not know they were eligible for a $2,000 payment under MetLife group life policies.
A MetLife spokeswoman said the company had no problems.
with paying the benefits but challenged the authority of Shallenburger's office to audit its records.
The company did not view the unpaid benefits as unclaimed property.
Under the settlement, MetLife agreed to set up a program to notify railroad workers and their families of the potential death benefits, which were first included in contracts between railroads and labor unions in 1966.

Mine reopens after tainting stream
The Associated Press
LOGAN, W.Va. — A coal treatment plant reopened yesterday, a day after a ruptured waste pipe spilled 100,000 gallons of coal slurry into two nearby streams, killing fish and raising concerns about the water supply.
State environmental inspectors said Bandmill Coal Co., a subsidiary of Massey Energy Co., could open as long as workers continued cleanup efforts.
By yesterday afternoon, the
spill had discolored the Guyandotte River. The slurry — concentrated and grayish-black on Tuesday — had broken up considerably, officials said.
"The cleanup is proceeding very well, and the operations of the plant itself were not going to impair the work," state inspection Supervisor Joe Hager said.
Massey said its investigators have determined that human error caused the spill of slurry, which is a mixture of water, fine coal particles and other waste from washing
coal to prepare it for market.
A mistakenly opened valve allowed slurry to enter a smaller water line, Massey said. That raised pressure inside the pipe, causing it to rupture.
Bandmill faces up to $15,000 in daily fines related to the spill and has been ordered to restore the smaller of the two creeks to its pre-spill environment. The slurry had mostly diluted by the time it reached the larger creek.
Massey is West Virginia's largest coal producer and the seventh largest in the nation. The company, which owns 18 mining complexes in central Appalachia, employs about 5,000 people in West Virginia, Kentucky and Virginia.
In July, a sediment pond overflowed at a Bandmill site near Lyburn and damaged or destroyed 10 homes. The state also ordered Massey to close a Mingo County mine after 20,000 gallons of polluted mine water was discharged into a nearby creek and lake.
Clues emerge in sniper investigation
The Associated Press
BALTIMORE — A tarot card with the taunting words "Dear policeman, I am God" and a shell casing emerged Wednesday as potential clues in the hunt for the sniper terrorizing Washington's suburbs.
The card and casing were found near a middle school in Bowie, where a 13-year-old boy was critically wounded by the gunman Monday, a source familiar with the investigation said on condition of anonymity.
Authorities said the shell was .223-caliber, the same kind of bullet used to kill six people and wound another in Washington and its Maryland and Virginia suburbs in the last week. The casing is believed to be the first one recovered since the slayings began.
Michael Bouchard, an agent with the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms, would not say whether authorities had linked the casing to the attacks.
Montgomery County Police Chief Charles Moose also wouldn't comment when asked about the tarot card, and angrily suggested unapproved information had been leaked.
"I need to make sure I don't do anything to hinder our ability to bring this person or these people into custody." Moose said.
The message left on the tarot card called the Death card was first reported by WUSA-TV and then by The Washington Post. Police sources told the newspaper the items were found 150 yards from the school in a wooded area on matted grass, suggesting the gunman had lain in wait.
Tarot cards, used mainly for fortunetelling, are believed to have been introduced into western Europe by Gypsies in the 15th century. Many tarot enthusiasts say the Death card usually does not connote physical death, but instead portrays a symbolic change or transformation.
Crime experts, while noting that the link between the card and the sniper remained unconfirmed, recalled other serial killers who left "calling cards."
One of the most notorious was
David Berkowitz, who killed six people in New York in 1976-77. He wrote a letter to newspaper columnist Jimmy Breslin and left a note addressed to a police detective that said: "I am a monster. I am the 'Son of Sam.'"
Robert K. Ressler, a former FBI proffiler, interviewed Berkowitz after his arrest.
"He said this was a stimulating thing for him to see the letters in the paper." Ressler said. "Even though he's the only one who knows, notoriety becomes very satisfying to an inadequate loser. It's a way of imposing power and control over society."
Ressler recalled one previous case, in 1970, where a multiple murderer left a tarot card — the slayings of a wealthy ophthalmologist and his family near Santa Cruz, Calif. The killer was captured and sentenced to life in prison.
James Alan Fox, a criminal justice professor at Northeastern University in Boston, said most serial killers don't care about notoriety and get their satisfaction from seeing their victims suffer.
The Washington-area sniper appears to fit a different pattern, enjoying a cat-and-mouse game with police, Fox said.
"He's turned the whole region into his personal shooting gallery." Fox said. "He enjoys the sport of hunting for humans, he enjoys his notoriety ... He wants us to know, 'That's me.'
Fox was struck by the language on the tarot card.
"He's probably a person who feels he doesn't get respect in ordinary life that he deserves," Fox said. "He's enjoying the fact that he's the lead story."
The motive for the seemingly random attacks remains unknown. Nearly 200 investigators are working their way through some 8,000 tips. One tip sent them on a fruitless search of woods behind a school in Prince George's County, but nothing was found.
A Prince George's County school spokeswoman said students were being kept inside as county schools remained locked down.
Genetics may cause heart failure in blacks
The Associated Press
A genetic double-whammy rarely found in whites dramatically increases the risk of congestive heart failure in blacks and may help explain why they are more likely than whites to get the disease, researchers say.
The genetic combination plays a role in one-quarter of the cases of congestive heart failure diagnosed each year among blacks, said Dr. Stephen B. Liggett, a leader of the study.
The study found that a pair of genes that does nothing bad by itself can double the risk created by a second pair, generating a tenfold risk for heart failure in black people who have both.
About 5 percent of U.S. blacks have that combination, Liggett said. But it is far rarer among whites.
The study was published in Thursday's New England Journal of Medicine.
Doctors have long known that blacks are more likely than whites to suffer from heart diseases and certain other illnesses, and are more likely to die from them. Some researchers have suggested that blacks receive inferior care, perhaps because of unconscious prejudice among doctors.
In fact, an analysis of 81 studies, released Wednesday as part of a campaign by major health foundations to close the racial health gap, found that the evidence that minorities get inferior cardiac care is compelling.
Liggett's study, however, is
part of a growing body of research indicating that at least part of the racial gap can be explained by genetics.
Nearly 4.8 million Americans have congestive heart failure. It affects about 3.5 percent of all black men, 3.1 percent of black women, 2.3 percent of white men and 1.5 percent of white women, according to the American Heart Association.
That would mean about 733,500 blacks have the disease. It shows up earlier and is more likely to have serious complications in blacks than in whites. Also, blacks do not get as much benefit from ACE inhibitors and beta-blockers, two common groups of medicines for heart disease.
There is no one explanation for those differences.What you do and where you live also can increase the risk. High blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, smoking and obesity all make it more likely.
That means people who have both gene pairs should do everything they can to eliminate the risks they can control, Liggett said.
One of the gene pairs in question increases production of a chemical that increases blood pressure, heart rate, and the heart's contraction and relaxation. The other gene pair makes heart cells which take up the chemical, norepinephrine, more sensitive to it.
Since the pair producing excess norepinephrine is 10 times as common among blacks as among whites, the combination is also far more common among blacks.

Dockworkers prepare for huge backlog of cargo
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — West Coast dockworkers headed back to work under court order yesterday, facing a huge backlog of cargo that built up over 10 days but could take more than two months to clear.
"Simply put, it's more complicated to fix something than to break it," said John Pachtner, a spokesman for the Pacific Maritime Association, which represents shipping companies and terminal operators.
The 10,500 members of the International Longshore and Warehouse Union were expected to begin reporting to work at 6 p.m., ending a lockout that shut
down 29 ports from San Diego to Seattle and cost the nation's fragile economy up to $2 billion a day by holding up exports and imports.
President Bush intervened on Tuesday, obtaining an injunction to end the shutdown.
Among the first cargo to be shipped will be perishables like seafood, meat and produce in refrigerated containers aboard some of the more than 200 ships anchored off the coast. After that, shipping companies will set their own priorities based on their customers' needs and demand for cargo.
The critical challenges will be lining up transportation on trucks, trains and planes, and

finding enough longshoremen for what could be round-the-clock work. Pachtner said.
"We need the ILWU to provide as many able-bodied people as possible who are fully productive," he said. "That's what will unclog the pipeline as soon as possible."
The lockout began after the maritime association accused union members of an illegal slowdown during contract talks. The
dispute centers on the use of new waterfront technology that the union believes would eliminate jobs.
On Tuesday, Bush became the first president in a quarter-century to invoke the Taft-Hartley Act of 1947, which allows a president to ask a federal court to stop a strike or lockout that imperils the nation's healthy and safety. A federal judge in San Francisco issued the injunction.
Dockworkers said they would go back to work, though many were unhappy about it and cited safety concerns, given the pressure to move items quickly.
The maritime association said employers would be looking for hundreds of additional workers.
Union Pacific, the nation's largest railroad, sent extra cars to West Coast ports and opened a 24-hour "war room" in its dispatch center to give priority to eastbound shipments.
But even if all available workers labored at record pace, it could take up to 10 weeks to clear the backlog, association president Joseph Mintace said.
Manufacturers hoped to get parts in time to avoid layoffs and shutdowns.
"As soon as the (port) gates open, we think we can resume truck production by Friday morning," said Michael Damer, a spokesman for New United Motor Manufacturing in Fremont.
New United — the only major auto assembly plant west of the Rockies — had closed its assembly lines last week after exhausting its supply of parts usually shipped into Oakland. It resumed production Monday using parts delivered by air from Japan.
Some truckers said they would wait until the docks were working again before deciding how to proceed. "A lot of drivers aren't going to go because it will be backed up," said Stephanie Williams of the California Trucking Association.
The truckers are a key link in the transportation chain because they haul cargo between the waterfront and inland storage points.
'Date-rape drugs' detectors may backfire
The Associated Press
SAN JOSE, Calif. — Colleges around the country are buying millions of coasters that test for "date-rape" drugs in drinks. But some experts say the coasters are ineffective and could lead to more assaults by creating a false sense of security.
The manufacturers — who also make fake snow and party foam — say the 40-cent paper coasters are 95 percent accurate. The coasters have test spots that are supposed to turn dark blue in about 30 seconds if a splash of alcohol contains drugs often used to incapacitate victims.
In tests at the Michigan State Police Crime Lab, however, the coasters failed to react clearly to drinks spiked with gamma hydroxybutyrate, a major date rape drug known as GHB, said forensic scientist Anne Gierlowski.
"We tested red wine, cola, whiskey and orange juice and because three out of the four have color already, it was very hard to decipher a color change," she said. "It's a nice idea, but it's probably a nicer idea for the people selling them because they've probably made a lot of money."
Plantation, Fla.-based Drink Safe Technologies Inc. has sold about 50 million of the coasters since March mostly to colleges and convenience stores, said president Francisco Guerra.
Guerta likens the coasters to condoms: While not 100 percent safe and effective, they are a good prevention tool.
"I've had 100 people say this saved them from getting raped," said Guerilla, a former magician. "Before me, there was no way to detect it. It's nice to be able to do something about it."
A federal task force recently estimated that college drinking leads to an estimated 70,000 sexual assaults or rapes annually.
Yasmine Timberlake, a sophomore at San Jose State University, was grateful for the coasters handed out by the YWCA at a bar near campus.
"We're girls, and we've got to be careful," she said, putting a handful in her purse. "That's all we can do."
And students are now openly talking about date rape at St. Mary's University in Halifax, Nova Scotia, which bought 800 coasters to pass out to freshmen.
"That's the purpose: to educate them and to make them more aware," said Donnie Jeffrey, who runs St. Mary's alcohol-awareness program.
The coasters' labels promise they will help "identify the presence of illicit drugs in beverages." But in response to questions from The Associated Press, co-inventor Brian Glover, a New York dentist who dabbles in chemistry, acknowledged that the coasters can identify just two of the many date-rape drugs — GHB and ketamine.
There are 36 drugs on the street classified as date-rape drugs, too many for police field tests to detect, said Trinka Porrata, a retired Los Angeles detective who is an authority on GHB.
"I'm horrified to think people are actually buying it and passing it out. I think it will do more damage than it will ever do good," said Porrata, a board member of Project GHB, a prevention and education organization.
"If it was that simple, we could shut down all of our crime labs," he said.
Islamic charity leader indicted on racketeering
The Associated Press
CHICAGO (AP) — The leader of a Chicago-area Islamic charity was indicted yesterday on racketeering charges accusing him of funneling donations to Osama bin Laden's terrorist network.
Enaam M. Arnaout, 40, of the Chicago suburb of Justice, head of Benevolence International Foundation, has been held in federal custody since April.
The indictment said a criminal enterprise that existed for at least a decade had used charitable contributions of innocent Muslims, non-Muslims and corporations to support bin Laden's al-Qaida network, Chechen rebels fighting the Russian army and armed violence in Bosnia.
"It is sinister to prey on good hearts to fund the works of evil," U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft said in announcing the charges in Chicago. "We will find
the sources of terrorist blood money."
Arnout was charged with one count each of racketeering conspiracy, conspiracy to provide material support to terrorists, conspiracy to launder money, money laundering and wire fraud. He also was charged with two counts of mail fraud.
If convicted, Arnaout could be sentenced to 90 years in prison without parole. Ashcroft said.
According to the indictment, Benevolence International and Arnaud engaged in a pattern of racketering. The objective was to support Islamic warriors around the world by raising funds.
The organizations involved were al-Qaida and Hezb e Islami, a militant group.
Arnaout was charged in April with perjury after filing a sworn statement denying that he had provided support to terrorist organizations.

"People can get there from other towns such as Leavenworth," he said.
Linda Finger, director of city planning, said growth in North Lawrence, where resident population is around 2,000, had been static in recent years.
Finger said the biggest plans for North Lawrence included an extension of the waste water treatment plant towards the Lawrence Municipal Airport. The plan has been in the works since 1995.
She said this might lead to a growth of airport-related businesses.
Jim Mayo, Urban Planning Chair at KU, said that, historically, North Lawrence had not been anything other than an eyesore at times, and an area of lower income.
He said growth in Lawrence had always been on the southern side of the bridge, and flooding in North Lawrence was a major reason for that growth.
However, there are a few places other than Johnny's that students cross the bridge for.
Gran-Daddy's BBQ Pit shares a building with Bada Bing, 913 N. Second St., a strip club frequented by students. Courtee Smit, co-owner of Gran-Daddys, said he saw a fair amount of student customers.
"I see some students every now and then; a lot of student athletes come here." Smit said.
He said most student customers came because they heard
about the restaurant by word of mouth.
Smit did not think the fact that they were next to Bada Bing contributed to their business because the latest they closed was 8 p.m.
There are two tepees. One is often used for fraternity and sorority functions, and the other one is a gift shop.

"Civil liberties are typically eroded during wartimes," Epp said. "This is certainly no exception."
Epp accused the government of using racial profiling to track potential terrorists.
"The Justice Department has, by intent, targeted these people on the basis of their race and ethnicity," Epp said.
When asked how to express opposition to the war, Strikwerda suggested having an alternative, such as waiting for the
self-destruction of Saddam Hussein's government.
"Waiting is not a heroic policy, but in some ways it's the most sensible thing to do," Strikwerda said.
"It's nice to hear academics say, 'There are options. Let's take a second and look at this,'" Baker said.
Rowland criticized the over-simplification of the conflict by the government and the public. The dismissal of Saddam Hussein and the citizens of Iraq as "a bunch of terrorists" had been used to justify going to war with them, he said.
"It's not an aetion movie." Rowland said. "You don't just go in there and take somebody out."
Stephanie Wilkinson, Wichita senior, attended the discussion to become better informed about the conflict with Iraq.
"I wanted to learn a little bit more and have more interesting discussion about it," she said.

KUWAIT — Friends and relatives of two Kuwaitis who attacked U.S. Marines on a Persian Gulf island said yesterday that the cousins had been to Afghanistan — long a training ground for Muslim militants — and acted to avenge the killings of Palestinians by Israelis.
U. S. officials said they were investigating whether al-Qaida had any links to the gunmen, who killed one Marine and wounded another before other troops shot them to death.
U.S.suspects al-Qaida in Kuwait shooting
The Pentagon identified the slain Marine as Lance Cpl. Antonio J. Sledd, 20, of Tampa, Fla. The wounded Marine was not identified.
Kuwait authorities said yesterday that they had detained four people as suspected co-conspirators in Tuesday's attack, two U.S. defense officials said in Washington.
Kuwait called Tuesday's attack on a training exercise on Failaka island a "terrorist act" and detained more than 30 people in a search for accomplices of the gunmen.
Two gunmen drove up in a pickup truck and opened fire on Marines engaged in urban assault training. The attackers then drove to a second location and attacked again before being killed by
Marines.
White House spokesman Ari Fleischer said the United States had not ruled out that the gunmen were linked to al-Qaida. "The investigators will have to look at any possible connection with terrorist groups," State Department spokesman Richard Bouchersaid.
Anas al-Kandari, identified by Kuwait as one of the gunmen, had "chosen to walk in the footsteps of Osama bin Laden," Mohammed al-Awadi, a Muslim cleric who said he was a friend of the two cousins, said yesterday.
Al-Kandari spent 18 months in Afghanistan, and his cousin Jassem al-Hajiri, identified as the other gunman, joined him there for six months, al-Awadi said.
Also yesterday, a U.S. serviceman fired his weapon at an unidentified civilian vehicle that was overtaking his Humvee in Kuwait after someone inside pointed a gun at him, U.S. officials in Washington said.
The officials said that after the shots, U.S. servicemen in the Humvee saw the other vehicle veer off the roadway. It was unclear whether anyone in the civilian vehicle was hit by the U.S. gunfire.
Al-Kandari was very moved by footage of Palestinians killed in the days before the attack, the cleric said. An Israeli raid Monday in the Gaza town of Khan Younis that left 16 Palestinians dead and more than 100 wounded has been heavily covered by Arab television.
"Every Muslim believes Americans are helping Jews, and he was burning to do something to help," Al-Kandari's brother, Abdullah, said.
Al-Kandari was born in 1981, his cousin in 1976, according to the Kuwaiti Interior Ministry.
The two attackers were buried yesterday.
A member of al-Kandari's clan, though not a close relative, is among 12 Kuwaitis held by U.S. forces in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, said Khaled al-Oda, who heads a non-governmental group campaigning for the prisoners' release.
Several Kuwaitis have been tied to Osama bin Laden, whose group is blamed for the Sept. 11 attacks — most notably, al-Qaida spokesman Sulaiman Abu Ghaith, who was stripped of his Kuwaiti citizenship in 2001, and Kuwaiti-born Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, who is suspected of being a Sept. 11 mastermind.
On its Web site, the U.S. Embassy urged Americans in Kuwait to be vigilant.
Kuwait has been a Washington ally since a U.S.-led coalition liberated the emirate from Iraqi occupation in the 1991 Gulf War.
Two Palestinians killed in Gaza
The Associated Press
Sharon warns 'clouds of war are gathering
JERUSALEM — Israeli soldiers killed two Palestinians in a clash in the Gaza Strip on Wednesday, and in the West Bank soldiers started dismantling illegal Jewish settlement outposts.
Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon warned, meanwhile, that "clubs of war" were gathering over the region, a reference to a possible U.S. attack on Iraq.
The Gaza clash developed in a place where there are daily confrontations — the Gaza-Egypt border, which is patrolled by Israel under the largely ignored interim peace accords. Palestinian witnesses said soldiers in tanks opened fire with
machine guns at Palestinians throwing rocks at them from the Rafah refugee camp, killing two and wounding 17. The Israeli military said soldiers returned fire after gunmen shot at them.
In the 1991 Gulf war, Iraq fired 39 Scud missiles at Israel. Under intense U.S. pressure, Israel did not retaliate. This time, Israeli leaders have said they would hit back if the country suffered many casualties from an
Sharon visited an Israeli army base in the south of Israel and praised soldiers for defending "against the Palestinian and Arab terror."
In a reference to the growing likelihood that the United States will attack Iraq, Sharon said, "There are clouds of war that are casting a shadow over our region." Reading from a prepared text, he said, "I hope they won't reach us. But we have to know that if Israel is attacked, it will protect its citizens."
Settler leaders accused Defense Minister Binyamin Ben-Eliezer of targeting the outposts for internal political reasons. Ben-Eliezer faces a tough battle for re-election as party chief in November, and his detractors allege that he moved against the outposts to win votes from the dovish wing of the party.
Iraqi attack.
Dozens of outposts have been established by settlers on isolated
Palestinians charge that all the settlements are illegal encroachments on land they claim for a state.
Meanwhile, Israeli soldiers dismantled two illegal Jewish settlement outposts in the West Bank, angering settlers but not satisfying critics, who say that there are more than 100 illegal points on hilltops all over the West Bank. Officials said a third outpost was taken down, but it could not be confirmed. All the sites were uninhabited.
As foreign minister in 1998, ata time when his government was engaged in land-for-peace talks with the Palestinians, Sharon encouraged settlers to grab more hilltops.
West Bank hilltops since 1998, in hopes of thwarting the transfer of land to the Palestinians in a future peace deal.
The enclaves are typically a few miles away from established settlements and usually consist of shipping containers, mobile homes, a generator and a water tank. Soldiers have been deployed to guard the populated enclaves.
The Settlers' Council said dismantling the outposts was a "reward for terror." Many were set up at sites of Palestinian attacks on Jewish settlers.
The army has given settler leaders a list of dozens of settlement outposts the Defense Ministry has ordered dismantled. The ministry dismantled 11 outposts on June 30.
The Associated Press
LONDON — A voice recording of Ayman al-Zawahri, al-Qaida's fugitive second in command, appears to be genuine and to have been recorded in the last few weeks, a U.S. official said Wednesday. In the statement, he threatens the United States and its economy.
Audio tape suggests al-Oaida official alive
References to current events in the recording — obtained Tuesday by Associated Press Television News — are a clear sign that al-Zawahri is alive, the official said in Washington on condition of anonymity.
The voice recording would be the first proof that al-Zawahri survived U.S. bombing in Afghanistan launched a year ago. U.S. officials say they don't know if al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden is alive, but in recent months U.S. troops
have been scouring the remote border region between Afghanistan and Pakistan.
Al-Zawahri probably recorded the statement in the last few weeks, but it could have been made as early as August, the official said, adding that the recording was still being analyzed.
Al-Zawahri refers to a July 1 U.S. bombing in Afghanistan and speaks about the United States' campaign against Iraq, accusing Washington of seeking to subjugate the Arab world on behalf of Israel.
The recording was obtained by APTN in the form of a video compact disc. On the disc, an interview with al-Zawahri is played against a video backdrop with English subtitles of the conversation, along with scenes from the Sept. 11 attacks and other news footage.

ARCA driver Martin killed in practice race
The Associated Press
CONCORD, N.C. — A driver on the minor league ARCA series crashed into a wall yesterday and seconds later was broad-sided by another car, killing him and injuring the other driver.
Eric Martin radioed his team. "I'm all right," after he spun and rammed the wall backward coming out of the fourth turn during practice at Lowe's Motor Speedway. But the other car, driven by Deborah Renshaw, came around the turn going at least 160 mph and plowed into Martin's car on the driver's side.
The 25-year-old Renshaw was taken to University Hospital in Charlotte and was alert and talking. Martin, 33, was dead before reaching the hospital.
NASCAR
They were practicing for the EasyCare 150, the final race of the season for the Automobile Racing Club of America, a training series for NASCAR hopefuls.
ARCA drivers are required to wear head and neck restraints. They usually drive old Winston Cup cars and the safety requirements are not as strict.
After the crash, the engine and a part of the wheel assembly sat on the track as the wreckage was lifted onto a tow truck and covered with a blue tarp.
Martin was from Hixson, Tenn. He is survived by a wife and two children.
He was 20th in the points standings in ARCA, which competes on many of the same tracks used for Winston Cup and Busch events.
Martin's death is the 15th at Lowe's, the seventh involving a stock car driver. Blaise Alexander was killed last October at an ARCA race in a wreck involving Kerry Earnhardt.
OU's Hybl ready for Texas
The Associated Press
NORMAN, Okla. — The Oklahoma Sooners have won 13 of the 14 games Nate Hybl has started at quarterback. He hasn't thrown an interception this season, and his coaches have praised his poise and leadership.
Still, to many, Hybi is the guy who lost his job a year ago and is starting now only because of an injury to Jason White, whose ability to run and throw had coaches and fans excited about this season.
"I don't really sense it and I don't care, for sure," said Hybl, who will lead No. 2 Oklahoma against No. 3 Texas on Saturday. "I really don't care."
The Texas game last year is where things began falling apart for Hybl. One week after surviving a pounding in a victory over Kansas State, he hurt his left shoulder and had to leave the game in the second quarter.
White took over, led the only touchdown drive of the game and Oklahoma beat Texas 14-3.
"I felt like I was, as a quarterback, starting to come into my own, then that
but was ineffective. White threw four touchdown passes in relief and was named the starter. His ability to run is what set him apart from Hybl, and it added a dimension to the offense.
The banged-up Hyb1 started the next game, against Kansas.
back, so own, then that happened," Hyb1 said.
Q
Two games later, against Nebraska. White tore up his left knee and was lost for the season. The job became Hyb1's again. After losing to Nebraska, the Sooners won three straight before getting upset by Oklahoma State in the regular-season finale.
Hybl threw three interceptions in that game and was roasted on
radio talk shows. The rap was that he wasn't mobile enough and wasn't a difference maker at the position.
When this season began. White was named the starter. But early in the second game of the year, against Alabama, he blew out his other knee and Hybl stepped in.
Hybl said this week felt like the days leading up to Christmas morning — he goes to bed each night and can't wait to get the next day started.
So far this season, Hybl is 69-of-116 for 1,014 yards and six touchdowns, with no interceptions. Including last year's Cotton Bowl game against Arkansas, he has thrown 148 passes without being picked off.
"I just have that feeling where each day I'm excited, ready to get around my buddies and do what we want to do in the game in practice - make it happen this week, then carry it over," he said.
Texas' Simms seeks vindication
The Associated Press
AUSTIN, Texas — Texas fans tried to write quarterback Chris Simms' legacy before he ever set foot on campus.
The son of former Super Bowl MVP Phil Simms would lead Texas to a national championship or two and routinely beat anyone who stood in the way.
Four years later, Simms' legacy stands like this: 20-4
as a starter but 0-3 against Top 10 teams with a starting 12 turnovers and no touchdowns in those defeats.
Simms gets knocked for not being able to win big games.
would end that.
Leading No. 3 Texas to a win Saturday over No. 2 Oklahoma
He's looking forward to getting another shot at the Sooners.
"Last year, I got a lot of experience in the game," he said. "This year, I have a better understanding of what it takes to win a big game like this."
Simm's has passed for 1,161 yards with 10 touchdowns and three interceptions this season.

Now Brown has a 21-year-old freshman who's second on the team with eight catches and a memorable touchdown.

Receiver says bye to baseball
the 20th round by the Colorado Rockies. He played two seasons in
the minors, hitting .250 with two home runs and 27 RBIs in rookie league and Class A.
Pilkington originally signed with the Huskers 2000 recruiting class but changed his mind after being drafted in
At the end of 2001 with the Class A Casper, Wyo., club, Pilkington needed surgery to repair a torn ligament in his throwing elbow. Going through rehabilitation just to spend another season in the minors didn't seem like a good option to Pilkington.
Pilkington, a 6-foot, 195pound native of Fort Collins, Co., solidified himself as one of the Huskers' top receivers against Iowa State on Sept. 28.
On a first-and-10 from the Nebraska 10-yard line early in the second quarter, Plikington got open over the middle and took a Jammal Lord pass in for a 90-yard touchdown.
"They really bit hard on that play action. I saw that corner's eyes when I made that move to go by him. I knew he knew he'd been beat," Pilkington said.
It was the third-longest pass play in Husker history and the longest since a 95-varder in 1965.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 10).
Your quest this year is for wisdom, and it won't always be easy. Make sure to check what you learn in books against your own experience before deciding whether it's true. Don't give your heart too freely or your money, either.
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. You're full of lofty ideas, but you'll have trouble convincing a person who means a lot to you unless you're also practical. Show how this will make or save money.
raurus (April 20-May 20). Today is a 5. Count up your pennies, nickels and dimes. Don't forget to pay yourself by hiding a little away. This is an excellent day for finding a good hiding place.
Gemini (May 21-June 21). Today is an 8. You're getting smarter, and soon it'll be easier to express your love. The bad news is that something you depend upon requires repair. It doesn't work all that well any longer.
Cancer (June 22-July 22). Today is a 5. Feel as if you're being asked to do too much for way too little? Splurge on a special treat for yourself. Take care of your own well-being.
O
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Today is a 5.
You're getting better at doing the calculations, and that could lead to a pay raise.
Take a refresher course to sharpen your skills and increase your status.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). Today is an 8. You've been bogged down in details but not without good reason. All those clues you've been collecting will soon start making sense. That'll be the fun part.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22). Today is an 8. Careful deliberation may not be one of your strong points, but you can learn how to do it if you must. It's not a bad idea if you want to stretch your money.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Today is a 5. It's easier to gather data now than it will be in a couple of days, so don't just sit there. Call your friend who's in the know.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Today is an 8. Pushing a little harder now can get you a lot further. A friend is there for you at just the right minute. Teamwork is your ace in the hole.

Within three years, Snyder had the Wildeats at 7-4 and 4-3 in the Big Eight Conference. He led them to the Coca-Cola Bowl in 1992, just the team's second postseason appearance, and then to eight straight seasons of nine or more victories.
Success brings better players, which partially explains the increase in transfer athletes, but the converse is true, too. In 1999, the year Kansas State went 11-1 and finished sixth in the Associated Press poll, the Wildcats had 23 players who had transferred from smaller colleges.

The Cyclones did not come closer than four points as Kansas closed the match, winning 30-23.

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING
Compiled by Jessica Tims Associate sports editor
Kansas cornerbacks, safties hit low point against Baylor
By Jason King The Kansas City Star
Kansas coach Mark Mangino could berate his squad's defensive backs for giving up 119 passing yards in the waning minutes of Saturday's 35-32 loss at Baylor.
"It wasn't only that it happened right at the end," Mangino said. "We played like that in the secondary... the entire game."
But why stop there?
As poor as Kansas' cornerbacks and safeties have been this season, they definitely reached their low point against the hapless Bears. Baylor quarterback Aaron Karas looked like a Heisman candidate scorching KU's secondary for a career-high 359 passing yards.
"We just got beat," said Mangino, whose team will host Colorado at 1 p.m. Saturday. "We took our eyes off the receiver and looked at the quarterback. You can't do that."
CU quarterback Hodge poses challenge to Kansas secondary
By Rick Plumlee The Wichita Eagle
Say Colorado and you think Chris Brown, the Big 12's leading rusher.
But that shouldn't cause Kansas' woeful secondary to think it's off the hook when the Bufaloes come to town for Saturday afternoon's game. CU quarterback Robert Hodge is a master of the deep ball.
Just ask Kansas State. He threw three touchdown passes — two over 70 yards — in last weekend's 35-31 victory over the Wildcats.
That should be a real concern for KU's secondary. The Jayhawks couldn't stay with Baylor quarterback Alex Karas, who threw for a career-high 359 yards and two touchdowns in beating KU 35-31 last Saturday.
Eight of Baylor's passes went for 20 yards on more, including one Karas caught for a touchdown.
Whittemore leads Kansas rushers, unafraid to take hits
Lawrence Journal-World
Kansas University's junior quarterback is as dangerous a runner as he is a passer. The Fort
Bill Whittemore can do just about anything his coaches ask—except slide.
Scott Community College transfer has passed for 1,020 yards and is KU's leading rusher with 374 yards through six football games.
When the Nashville, Tenn., product does run, he's as likely to run over a defender as he is to slide or run out of bounds. One Baylor defender learned that the hard way Saturday in Waco, Texas, when KU's quarterback flattened him during the Jayhawks 35-32 loss.
"I've never enjoyed sliding," Whittemore said of the tactic many quarterbacks employ to avoid hits. "I'll probably have to learn pretty quick that I need to. Everybody keeps telling me that. That's never been my nature. I've always enjoyed going to get that extra yard."
Kansas struggles with receiving, can't hold onto the football
By Ric Anderson
The Topeka Capital-Journal
Speed is good. Leaping ability, too. Fearlessness in traffic? Undoubtedly a plus.
But as Kansas has learned through six games this season, the first requirement for being a good receiver is, well, to receive.
The Jayhawks struggled in that fundamental skill on Saturday at Baylor, where they muffed at least five throws before halftime in struggling to a 14-12 deficit after two quarters.
"We have to hold on to the ball," KU coach Mark Mangino said Tuesday. "We had too many drops in the first half. We have to do a good job of holding on to the football and we'll work on that."

Sopranos unwelcome in parade
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — In a recent episode of The Sopranos, members of Tony Soprano's crew got into a fight with another group because of a Columbus Day celebration.
Now, Mayor Michael Bloomberg has asked two of the show's cast members to march in New York's Columbus Day parade.
But no one told the parade planners, who dislike the HBO mob drama because they say it perpetuates negative images of Italian-Americans.
"The show stereotypes the Italo-American family in the worst way," said Larry Auriana, president of the Columbus Citizens Foundation, which is organizing Monday's parade. "Besides the whole crime element, it shows Italo-Americans as uneducated, low-life brutes.
"This," Auriana added, "is not the mayor's parade."
Bloomberg asked Dominic Chianese, who plays Tony's Uncle Junior, and Lorraine
ON THENET:

"The Sopranos":

Coalition of Italo-American Associations:
www.italiano coalition.org
Bracco, who plays psychiatrist Jennifer Melfi, to take part in the parade. The foundation previously has turned down requests for The Sopranos actors to appear at the annual event.
Bloomberg said yesterday he invited the actors because of the work they did on behalf of the city:
Bracco as a spokeswoman on environmental issues, Chianese for making a public service announcement for tourism.
"I didn't invite them as members of The Sopranos. I didnt invite any other member of The Sopranos cast," the mayor said. "These are two nice people who have gone out of their way to help the city."
I apologize if anybody's offended," he said, but added, "if you are offended, don't wave back when they wave to you."
William Fugazy, president of the Coalition of Italo-American Associations, called the invitations "a disgrace."
"It is a sort of sacred day for Italo-Americans. Our parade is about heritage and pride. Certainly, the Sopranos haven't done much for heritage and pride in our community."
Fugazy's words sound a lot like the ones Silvio Dante uses in the Sept. 29 episode of The Sopranos, upon learning that an American-Indian group plans to protest just days before a Columbus Day parade in New Jersey.
"Ultimately, it's anti-Italian discrimination," says Silvio, played by Steven Van Zandt. "Columbus Day is a day of Italian pride, it's our holiday, and they want to take it away."
Later in the show, several guys in Tony's crew descend on the American Indians' demonstration. The two groups brawl, resulting in several arrests.

Kansas should use help from transfers
In the midst of a first season coaching a Kansas football team that is unlikely to end up better than 2-9, coach Mark Mangino may want to make some changes to his coaching philosophy.
No, he doesn't need to start running the shotgun exclusively or replace struggling kicker Johnny Beck with backup Chris Tyrrell. Mangino needs to take a look at the success of quarterback Bill Whittemore and reconsider his outlook on transfers.
When he was hired last December, Mangino said he would use junior college players to help build the Kansas football program his first few years, but that he wouldn't depend on them as his mentor Bill Snyer did at Kansas State.
Mangino has stayed true to his word, as freshmen Nick Reid and Mark Simmons have contributed, and running back Clark Green and the Amadi brothers, among others, have seen considerable playing time after redshirting last year.
Wishing he could rely on freshmen to help turn the Jayhawks around may have been wishful thinking by Mangino, though. As much as the above players have helped, it will take another two or three years before they're major contributors. Waiting for them and the next few freshmen classes, few of which will be nationally ranked until the team reaches .500 to develop, could lead Mangino to the same fate as his predecessor, Terry Allen.
On the other hand, experienced players like Whittemore, who starred at Fort Scott Community College for two years before coming to Kansas this season, and linebacker Leo Etienne, who transferred from Hutchinson Community College last year, contributed immediately.
There are currently 23 transfer players on the Jayhawks roster, but just nine are listed on the most recent two-deep depth chart. Seven of those players start on offense or defense, but three are on the Jayhawks less-than-adequate offensive line.
Immediate help from players such as Whittemore and Etienne can turn a team around, as Mangino knows from his time as an assistant at Kansas State. When Snyder took over as Wildcats coach in 1989, the team, coming off an 0-11 season, was the laughing stock of Division I college football and had just three

American flags and slam dunks dominated last year's Late Night with Roy Williams.
When the Jayhawks took the floor on Oct. 12, 2001 — one month after the Sept. 11 attacks — fans, players and coaches were ready to honor the United States and celebrate the opening of the college basketball season.
Jeff Hawkins, who redshirted last season, wore an American Flag-patterned top hat while leading a performance of James Brown's "Living in America." Country singer Coley McCabe sang the national anthem. Athletic Director Al Bohl recognized then student body president Justin Mills' fundraising efforts to support Sept. 11 victims. A red, white and blue ribbon hung from the rafters.
Squatch, the Seattle Supersonic's mascot, and the Extreme Acrobatic Slam Dunk Team warmed up the crowd with

an array of above-the-rim acrobatics.
When the Jawhaws got their attempt to attack the basket, they did not disappoint. Junior forward Drew Gooden and freshman Keith Langford thrilled the crowd with their high-flying act, and junior Kirk Hinrich displayed the benefits of his off-season conditioning with some athletic dunks.
In between the patriotism and rim rattling, Kansas fans got a good look at freshmen Wayne Simien, Aaron Miles, Michael Lee, Langlord and Hawkins. Maybe a better look than they had anticipated. The five donned retro Kansas uniforms, short shorts and all.
Kansas' coach Roy Williams told reporters after the event that he had enjoyed seeing the players uniforms.
"The funniest part of the night was the short shorts." Williams said.

The Kansas Jayhawks headed into this week's homecoming matchup with the Colorado Buffaloes on the high of a fourgame winning streak.
P
With a virtual record of 4-2, this would be the first ranked opponent of the season for Kansas. Coach Ryan Greene could see danger ahead.
"I've been beating some major behind in these games so far, but Colorado is a far fetch from Baylor and Tulsa," Greene said. "Plus, Jonah's pretty good at this game. I hate to disappoint, but it could get ugly."
A Colorado native, Jonah Ballow had previously lost to Greene in the inaugural virtual face off, using Southwest Missouri State, but Colorado would give him a slight advantage.

Colorado 7, Kansas 0
Kansas looked to respond, using Reggie Duncan heavily on the opening drive. Duncan helped take the Jayhawks deep into Colorado territory, but he fumbled at the 6-yard line, giving the ball back to Colorado.
To silence the crowd, Brown took the ball 88 yards on the ground on the first play of the drive.
He was dragged down by Johnny McCoy at the Kansas 5-yard line, but punched it in for the score on the next play.
Colorado 14, Kansas 0
When the Jayhawks took over again,
Greene knew that a quick score was desperately needed. Bill Whittemore found Byron Gasaway for 21 yards on the first play of the drive, and the offense opened up on the next play with a 59-yard touchdown bomb to Derick Mills.

2nd Quarter
On Colorado's ensuing possession, Brown had his only miscue of the day: a fumble at the Colorado 41-yard line.
Kansas, however, was unable to bank on the Colorado mistake and was forced to punt. The Buffs made the Jayhawks pay for their offensive inability by taking the ball downfield on the ground. This time, it was Bobby Purify punching in a touchdown from a yard out, but J.T. Eberly pushed the extra point attempt wide.
Colorado 20, Kansas 7
Kansas added two Johnny Beck field goals before the end of the half, but the offense was still struggling. Whittimore was finding it hard to complete passes with the heavy wind, and the offense would have to produce in the second half.

Dropping a game for the first time at home this season wasn't a highlight for Kansas volleyball, but it may be one of the best lessons for the squad.
"It's not going to be such a big deal if we lose another game at home in the future," said sophomore middle blocker Ashley Michaels.
Kansas defeated Iowa State three games to one (31-29, 30-16, 25-30, 30-23), extending its winning streak over the Cyclones to five matches. Game three was the first game the Jayhawks have lost at Horeijs Family Athletics Center this season.
Three Jayhawks registered double-doubles. Freshman middle blocker Josiane Lima led the team with 18 kills. She also registered 11 digs, earning her sixth double-double this season. Junior outside hitter Sarah Rome had 10 kills and a match-high 23 digs, her fifth

Local artist approaches success
By Janette Yost
jyost@kansan.com
Jayplay writer
His music is approachable, his rhymes are approachable, and don't be intimidated — he's an approachable guy. Humble, even.
Sean Hunt, known as "Approach" in the local hip-hop scene, said he wanted to make music that was easy for listeners to get into.
"My music's like an open hand," said Hunt, Lawrence resident. "I'm inviting everyone in."
Approach will play a release show for his new album, Ultra Proteus, Oct. 25 at The Pool Room, 925 Iowa St. The album is on Datura Records, a new label that Approach co-owns with Brent Lippincott, who is also known as Candlewax.
Candlewax, Lawrence resident, heads business operations for the label.
Approach started listening to rap music as a high school freshman in 1993 at Shawnee Mission North in Overland Park. Six years later he was performing gigs in Lawrence.
Approach said he kept his rhymes cuss-free and lived a lifestyle free of drinking and smoking. While writing lyrics, he said, "I put my personality on paper."
Approach said he was inspired as an artist by the underground rap scene he discovered as a junior in high school. He made friends on the scene, including Raymond Perkins, a Kansas City area musician.
"It was Ray who really made me want to make music." Approach said.
Jurassic 5, Mos Def and Black Eyed Peas were artists who influenced Approach's music, he said.
Approach said he started rapping in 1997. Two years later he was encouraged by local artist REBEL, now Ras Reb, to record a tape with him. The result was called The Web of Thought. It wasn't until 2000, though, that Approach started taking himself seriously. That summer, he recorded a tape with a more funky side. That tape was the original Ultra Proteus.
The national label We Sell Soul picked up Approach's tape and eventually planned for an album release. Because of ownership issues with the label, his plans

were put on hold. That hold ended up lasting a full year, when the label gave the album back to Approach, saying they weren't in a financial position to put it out.
After that year, Approach got his album back and put a year's worth of musical maturation into perfecting its details.
Candlewax decided the album was something he could devote himself to and moved to Lawrence, where Datura Records is now based.
Ultra Proteus is about 23 minutes long consisting of eight full tracks and two short interludes.
"It's an addictive listen," Candlewax said. "It flows from start to finish and gets better as it goes."
Approach said he made the album short so listeners would play the whole CD and not just skip to a few favorite songs. He said his goal was to have no middle-ground opinions; he wanted people to either love the album or hate

it.
Approach said a lot of people contributed to his album.
"If they didn't make it happen,it would be half of what it was," he said.
On the album is Ehren Starks on Fender Rhodes and B-3 organ, Ben Tuddle on percussion, Abaus Adams on keyboards, Miles Bonny on horns, Eric Johnson on guitar and Dore Freeman on bass. Johnny Quest was recording engineer and Ben the Scratch Rat was producer and DJ.

Wax Clash to showcase DJs, break dancers

Kansan staff writer
Hip-hop, electronic and other styles of beat music will fill Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St., tonight.
Local and out-of-town DJs will show off their skills and compete for prizes in the 2002 KJHK Wax Clash DJ Battle. Last year's DJ battle attracted about 900 people, and the organizers expect even more this year, said Leila Kim, Wichita junior and "Lady Luk" from Hip House on KJHK.
Between 16 to 20 DJs will compete tonight for cash, records, and CDs. The purpose of the competition is to provide a showcase for local musicians who want to show off their talents, Kim said.
"We are reaching out to many different aspects of people," she said. "It's about forgetting your differences, having fun, and watching good music."
The competing DJs should not feel limited to any particular style, Kim said.
The event is a chance for Thorton Cherry, also known as DJ Speedy, to get his name out, he said. Cherry, Chicago junior will participate for his third year in the competition.
because the event will showcase different styles of beats.
Cherry has performed at the Jazzhaus and Raoul's Velvet Room. He has never won a prize at the Wax Clash, so this year he is practicing his techniques 3 to 5 hours every day.
Cherry also balances 14 hours at the University of Kansas and a part-time telemarketing job.
"I practice blending and scratching, but I don't know the materials I will use because it depends on how I feel," he said.
"Anytime I have down time, I work on my beats," he said. "My music is my entire life."
This year's competition will include three rounds, with two finalists competing in the final round. Kyle Nelson, Topeka senior and a Breakfast for Beatlovers DJ at
Some of the same B-boys will perform at the Bulldog Battle Friday night at The Pool Room, 925 Iowa St., where some of they will be competing for a first-place cash prize of $500.
In addition to the DJ competition rounds, this year's Wax Clash will also feature break dancing from some of Lawrence's B-boys.
Tickets for the Wax Clash are $3 per person. Tickets will be sold at the doors, which open at 8 p.m.
"The first DJ Battle was held in the KJHK studio, and last year we almost sold out Liberty Hall," he said.
Downplay Productions will sponsor the competition. This locally-owned promotions company also organizes Project Groove, a weekly event at the Pool Room that features different DJs.
KJHK, said the Wax Clash had grown significantly in the three years KJHK has been hosting the event.
Edwin Morales, San Antonio sophomore, is one of Downplay Productions'
two founders. He started the Bulldog Battle because he felt break dancers lacked a niche within Lawrence's music and dance scene.
"I think we have opened people's minds to break dancing," he said. "The event shows that break dancing is its own form and is a way of life."
The winner will be decided by Kujo, a break dancer from Los Angeles who has appeared in music videos.
Downplay Productions is also sponsoring a "F#ck School Jam," on Friday, Oct.18.Morales said the event would be a gigantic party featuring a performance from the Go Hard Crew. Admission is $1.
Tickets are $5 for 21 and over and $7 for 18- to 20-year-olds.
Morales has named Friday night's event as the "Midwest Gathering of B-boys."
"We are doing it for the people who can't afford to leave for Fall Break," he said.

Absolute Power
Strange Music
Tech N9ne knows his own power.
His latest album, Absolute Power, flows with the raw lyrical potency that has led him to the top of the Kansas City hip-hop scene.
Following up 2001's Anghellic, Tech raps on issues ranging from drug-use to the state of America's youth.
The lead single "Slacker," complete with a sci-fi like music video, shows off Tech N9ne's poetic skills backed by a complex beat by Femi Ojetunde.
He takes on the state of hip-hop with the vitriolic "Industry is Punks" and goes all out with a barrage of melodic fireworks in "Imma Tell."
The title track, "Absolute Power," is distinctive to the album. It opens with a trance-like reverse taped sample but soon crashes into the listener with the verbal force of a class-four hurricane.

Other strong tracks include the cryptic "Worst Enemy," and the defiant "Keep On Keepin' On." Far from being absolutely corrupted, Absolute Power, delivers Tech N9ne's trademark energy and cements his place as a masterful hip-hop artisan.

DJ Not a DJ has proved on its latest release Deep Roots in Shallow Ground that its music is not so easy to pin down.

Fulton, along with drummer/percussionist Bob Little, keyboardist/loop stylist Nate Holt and bassist/keyboardist Dash Fohahn Williamson, transitions from ceremonial chants to reggae to jazz in the hour-plus album.

It began as a modern day pilgrimage and ended up making hip-hop history. One Big Trip is the first disc to double as both a full-length feature film and a complete hip-hop compilation. The film chronicles five people's search for the state of American character at the turn of the 21st century, and the compilation collects rap's cutting edge in a fire storm of progressive poetry.
The first full cut, "Verbal Gunfight" by Jurassic 5, establishes the mood with a complex lyrical volley and paves the way for an exotic track by Hieroglyphics called "Soweto." featuring Goapele.
The final track, "The High Road," by Swollen Members, is imbued with the wandering spirit of the entire project. A melodic piano piece is framed by a constant beat and the lyrics capture images of the country mixed with the mystique of life's road.

Hip-hop dance troupe more than just freestyle

Maya Tillman, Hutchinson senior, doesn't want people to take hip-hop dance lightly.
The Unity Dance Troupe practices one of its routines. The group choreographs and performs dances to pop, R&B and hip-hop music.
Tillman is a member of the Unity Dance Troupe, a hip-hop dance group. The three-year member said that, although some thought of hip-hop dance as a type of dance without rules, it was a structured type of dance that fell somewhere between jazz and freestyle.
Kansan file photo
Ashley Love, Kansas City, Kan., senior and four-year Unity Dance Troupe member, agrees that hip-hop isn't all about freestyle dance.
"A lot of people think of hip-hop as free," Love said. "There are rules and technical aspects of hip-hop."
Love said balance and stability are as important in hip-hop as they are in any other type of dance. Hip-hop dances were also composed of specific hip-hop dance steps.
man said. "Break dancing can be considered more hip-hop."
"There are a lot of dances that don't have names to them, but there are a lot of dance (steps) like the Harlem shakedown," Till-
The Unity Dance Troupe is a group of 17 members who perform choreographed hip-hop routines to pop, R&B and hip-hop songs. Love said members were encouraged to choose songs and then pair up with three or four other members to choreograph a dance.
"Everybody is a choreographer. You have to contribute," Love said. "It's a requirement to be a member."
Elora Gregory, Kansas City, Kan., sophomore, said hip-hop dance broke out of the structured mold and became more like freestyle because it allowed the dancer to bring his or her own style into the choreographed dance.
"You learn a routine in uniform, but you can always put your little style into it," said Gregory, first-year Unity member. "That is the whole idea of it—to incorporate your type of style and your type of dancing."
Tillman also said hip-hop allowed for variations in pace and formations, which was how she added her personal touch to the dance.
"Igo for a lot of fast, intricate movements. I'm really big on just moving." Tillman said.
Both Tillman and Love said that, although hip-hop dance had traditionally been thought of as a predominately African-American type of dance, it reached all types of people. The Unity Dance Troupe has members of several races.
"That is one thing that we have in common is our love for hip-hop,"Tillman said.
"So even if in society it's seen as stereotypically African American, it extends across the black culture boundary."
The Unity Dance Troupe is scheduled to perform its hip-hop routines today at the pep rally in Memorial Stadium, and again tomorrow during Late Night with Roy Williams in Allen Fieldhouse.

Kansan staff writer
Every weekday morning, these DJs feed the hunger of hip-hop-loving souls with their show "Breakfast for Beatlovers." The show airs from 9 a.m. to noon Monday through Friday on KJHK 90.7 FM. Jayplay asked the DJs questions about their work and the music that inspires it.

5. What is in your CD player right now?
Monday

1. This will be my second year. This is my
first semester doing Beatlovers.
2. I thought I could bring a perspective, especially a female perspective, on this beat-related music that I wasn't actually noticing before.
3. I would have to say Rakim.
Penny
Murray
4. My goal is not to play the same song very many times, but an all-time classic song that I would love to play would be "Emerald Butterfly," by The Pharcyde.
5. Jean Grae. She's a female MC that's pretty underground right now.
Stephanie Grebel, St. Louis senior

It's too hard. I can't give one song.
5. Impala Lounge. It's a double CD. It has afro beats.
Tuesday
Casey Boyer, Lawrence junior
1. This is my first semester.
2. I love electronic music and hip-hop and beat-oriented music.I really wanted to spread some people's musical faith by the stuff I play and expose them to music they maybe wouldn't hear if they weren't listening to KJ.
A. J. WILSON

Hip-hop community hopping out of shell
By Michael Vennard mwvennard@kansan.com Kansan Staff Writer
With recent and upcoming CD releases, tonight's disc jockey battle and tomorrow's B-boy battle, the Lawrence hip-hop community is making itself known this month.
"It's been around for years and years," Britton Kimler, a local DJ also known as 'That Guy Downstairs,' said about hip hop in Lawrence.
"Lawrence is notorious as a place where artists stagnate. Now it's starting to get more down to business. It's more organized. Lawrence is no longer a place where hip-hop comes to: it's a place where hip-hop comes from," said Kimler, a KU graduate and Lawrence resident.
Sounds Good and DJ Not a DJ both recently released recordings. Archetype and Approach both have recordings set for release later this month, on Oct. 16 and
Oct. 25, respectively.
Other events, including tonight's DJ battle at Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St., and the Project Groove Bulldog Battle tomorrow night at the Pool Room, 925 Iowa St., provide further evidence of hip-hop life in Lawrence.
Hip-hop programming on KJHK 90.7, a Web site and a handful of weekly events provide proof of local hip-hop's potential staying power. Lawrencehiphop.com, started by Miles Bonny as an mp3 site for local music, now features a discussion board and an events calendar to inform both fans and performers.
The Project Groove promoters turn the Pool Room into a hip-hop venue every Friday night. The Dynamic Duo spin records every Sunday at the Jazzhaus, 926 1/2 Massachusetts St. Louise's Bar Downtown, 1009 Massachusetts St., features hip-hop DJs on Monday nights."Open

Soon hip-hop fans will be able to enjoy local hip-hop wherever and whenever they choose.
"It's all finally been coming together," said Jeremy Nesbitt, also known as Nezbeat of Archetype. "We've all been working on albums for the past few years and now they're all coming out at the same time."
A preview of the liner notes for the upcoming Archetype release revealed the collaborative, homegrown nature of the Lawrence hip-hop community. Virtually every element of the recording and the accompanying artwork came from Lawrence-based artists and musicians.
"It's all very crossed-over. Every single person has done something with every other person, or they probably will," Miles Bonny, one half of Sounds Good, said. "When you really start to think about how much exchange goes on between artists, I guess it's pretty crazy."
Nesbitt said the collaborative nature of Lawrence hip-hoppers reflected their work ethic.
"We're all friends as well as part of a community," Nesbitt said, "The more we get ourselves out as a community, the more people can appreciate us as a whole and not just as individuals."
Local hip-hop artist and producer John McCluskey, also known as Johnny Quest, said that while the artists might collaborate often, they all maintain their own unique sound.
"Everyone around here is so stylistically diverse. Sounds Good has the soul, party vibe. Close Encounters; the dark wordiness. Mac Lethal is there if you want to get crazy and then you've got I.D. of Archetype if you want to get on the existential vibe," McCluskey said.
Kyle Nelson, a local promoter and hiphop fan, said the easy-going nature of Lawrence affected the hip-hop community.
"We're down to earth in Lawrence. We have a better sense of camaraderie here. It's less cutthroat and there's more trust," Nelson said.
"The Midwest has formulated its own original approach to hip hop. It's more reflective of how normal folks live, get by. It doesn't have any pretension to it," Bogart, also known as DJ Vex-1 of the GoHard Crew, said.
Joel Bogart, Stafford senior, said the lifestyles and values of real Midwesterners were represented in the work of local hip-hoppers.
Bonny agreed, saying "the close knit group that exists here, the lack of competition, and the potential ease of day-to-day life" were important aspects of local life that come across in Lawrence's hip-hop.
"It's not a struggle. We're not forcing music out of ourselves to pay bills. We all have jobs, you know. Whereas in the big city, it's do-or-die," Bonny said.
McCluskey said the same factors applied to the local hip-hop audience.
applied to "Lawrence people are very open to new music. It has a lot to do with the college community," he said. "And they also know how to party. That adds to it."

Smarter writing gives hope to hip-hop books
Writers now recognize growth of hip-hop impact on society
By Henry C. Jackson
cjackson@kansan.com
Jayplay writer
Intelligent writing about hip-hop music is hard to find. Most writers are either too caught up with their subject: "Nelly, you're right. It is hot in here. I think we should all take off our clothes," or they are far too academic: "The enunciation of Nelly's rhymes makes him persuasive, particularly to young females, who can't resist his call to remove their clothing because of the rapidly increasing temperature."
There is hope. Hip-hop's growth from underground sound to mainstream has caused even the most reluctant social observers to acknowledge the music genre's impact on society. The result?
A steady trickle of smart writing dissecting everything from the language MCs use in their rhymes to the sociological impact of hip-hop on American society.
Here's a look at three books that show there's more to hip-hop than beats and rhymes.
THE VIRTUAL STORY
The Vibe History of Hip-Hop edited by Alan Light Three Rivers Press,1999
Vibe magazine is the Rolling Stone of hip-hop. It is the definitive source on its subject.The Vibe History of Hip-Hop is a collection of Vibe's writing, as well as pieces solicited specifically for the book.
Selections range from essays on old-school rap favorites such as KRS-One to speculation about where hip-hop is going.
Peppered with vivid photography, Vibe's guide is both a compelling read and a great book to look through for a glimpse at the history of hip-hop. It includes everything from founding fathers such as the Sugar Hill Gang to more recent success
stories such as Jay-Z.
Hip Hopionary:

Hip-Hop Terminology by Alonzo
and Paul Westbrook Broadway
Books, set to release Oct. 15
HIP HOPITIONARY
Writers Alonzo and Paul Westbrook
do their best to shed light on the arcane world of hip-hop terminology with Hip Hopionary: The Dictionary of Hip-Hop Terminology.
Westbrook defines dozens of rap's most perplexing phrases, such as "marinating in the rizzi with your road dawg," and profiles the stars who make knowledge of such phrases a necessity.
While it's impossible to explain all the intricate word manipulations rappers use. Westbrook has done his best to clue in the uninitiated.
Those looking for a hip-hop themed pub crawl can find out what their favorite rap
stars drink. Cristal, fo sho. Westbrook even provides a list of hip-hop designers, so you know that Sean John is down, and Abercrombie and Fitch is not.

FILM
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN = 11
Movies that represent the hip-hop generation
By Peter Black
pblack@kansan.com
Jayplay writer
Many of the hip-hop celebrities on MTV's Cribs say the only thing more gangster than rolling on 22-inch rims is owning Scarface. Sure Tony Montana embodied the gangster lifestyle, but is Scarface really the film that should define hip-hop music and the rap lifestyle? Here are some movies that truly define hip-hop.
The Warriors
This 1979 gangster epic directed by Walter Hill has become a cult classic, earning praise from critics and Ol' Dirty Bastard alike. The film chronicles a New York gang wrongfully accused of killing a rival gang's leader. The gang makes its way across New York trying to get back to the safe ground of its home turf. This is one of few films to try to depict the life of gangs. Plus it has been
quoted by numerous rappers, including Wu-Tang Clan on its debut album Enter the Wu-Tang: 36 Chambers.
He may not be as popular as Shaft, but Dolemite is everything Shaft wishes he could be. Dolemite was released in 1975 and takes being a gangster to another level. If getting girls is part of being a gangster then Dolemite has everyone beat. Not only does he pimp the occasional hooker but he also has a gang of Kung Fu girls who help him fight back against "the man," Mayor Daly, to get his night club back. Scenes from this film were used in Ol' Dirty Bastard's music video for "Got Your Money." Breakin'2: The Electric Boogaloo
Dolemite
What is more hip-hop than break dancing? How about a sequel to a movie about break dancing. In 1984 Breakin' was released and in that same year its sequel The Electric Boogaloo was released. The
sequel is superior to its predecessor because of its stylish depiction of Los Angeles street dancing. It weaves the hiphop culture and the street lifestyle into a cinematic fabric highlighted with the neon colors of the early'80s.
The film is about a couple of break dancers who are trying to save the local community center by raising $200,000. Breakin' may have been the first breakdancing film to arrive at Hollywood's door but The Electric Boogaloo knocked it down.
Slam
Released in 1998 and directed by Marc Levin, Slam is a story about a freestyle hiphop poet, Ray Joshua, played by Saul Williams. Joshua is sent to a rough Washington, D.C., prison because of drug charges. Inside the prison he spends his time writing and expressing his emotions through his poetry and rapping. He is the
center of attention in prison because two gangs are competing for his membership. Slam is interesting because it fuses the world of gangs with the poetic side of hip hop. That also gives the film a caring heart, which many gangs films lack.
Bamboozled
Bamboozled is writer and director Spike Lee's satirical look at oppressed feelings of racism that still exist in America today. A gangster-like television executive, Michael Rapaport, gives the green light to a show exploiting the dancing talents of two local street artists in a modern-day minstrel show. Audiences love it and members of the African-American community revolt. A rap group headed by Mos Def and Canibus seek revenge through their lyrics and through violence. Bamboozled is a shocking, self-questioning look at the exploitation of race and stereotypes in modern-day popular culture.
Rap artists interested in more than just rhyming
By Stephen Shupe
sshupe@kansan.com
Jayplay writer
Few pop-culture icons seem content with a single spot in the limelight. As soon as an image is built and fans have made associations with the work, a star will suddenly confess, "I've done this, but what I really want to do is this."
For hip-hop artists, this new career path often involves acting. Even though the prominence of music videos has helped facilitate a crossover for some, movies undeniably serve to redefine a rapper's image, and not everyone comes away unscathed.
So, while the hip-hop industry waits to see if Eminem will embarrass or enlighten
audiences with next month's 8 Mile, let's take a look at three other artists who have made the transition to movies.
Ice-T
Ice-T's film career began promisingly enough but faded fast. During the last three years, he's appeared in 24 films, and only one, 3000 Miles to Graceland, saw theatrical release.
Following his debut in Denzel Washington's underrated police thriller, Ricochet, Ice-T gave a ferocious performance in Mario Van Peebles' New Jack City. As Scotty Appletree, the street-tough cop taking his revenge on the all-powerful Nino Brown, the music artist behind "Cop Killer" found equally edgy footing in his film work. Snoop Dogg
If Ice-T's films started out good and got
progressively worse, Snoop Dogg's films appear to be getting better. Half Baked and The Wash were funny, but they also reinforced negative stereotypes about African Americans in relation to crime and drugs. His two most notable films indicate a new direction. In John Singleton's ambitious Baby Boy, Dogg played Rodney, an ex-convict with no qualms about inviting himself over for the night.
Dogg's best film yet is Bones, a horrific ghetto-set film in which gangster Jimmy Bones is executed and then returns as an avenging ghost. In Bones, he uses his cool to open up new possibilities for African Americans in movies.
Mos Def
With a near-perfect track record in both music and film, Mos Def has made the
most successful transition of the three artists. Whether teaming with Talib Kweli on Black Star or on his own with Black on Both Sides, Def has earned underground acclaim for his music. His movies have received similar recognition, especially Spike Lee's Bamboozled.
A fearless satire and one of the few movies to address corporate ownership of media, Bamboozled depicts the rise of a modern minstrel show. Def plays the film's most provocative character, Julius Hopkins, the leader of a radical rap group named the Mau Maus.
Def also showed off his talent in the Eddie Murphy comedy Showtime, and recorded the title song for his newest film. Brown Sugar, which opens nationwide tomorrow.

Clothing style represents culture, fashion
Hip-hop is a genre that is not just music. FASHION
HONOR
Sarah Behunek sbehunek@kansan.com
Hip-hop is a genre that is not just music. The artists who create the eclectic beats, the DJs who mix them and the break dancers who groove to them wear clothes that are synonymous with the music. Hip-hop has a definitive style. Baggy clothes that allow movement are characteristic of hip-hop fashion. Yet, within the style there is room for interpretation.
The urban style combines sports gear such as basketball jerseys with sweat suits and crew-neck sweaters with brand names, such as Ecko, in graffiti-like writing. That's what makes this genre of fashion so interesting — it combines two extremes: laid back and clean cut. Although the pants are baggy and the sweatshirts are ... well, sweatshirts, people who are into the hip-hop scene and dress accordingly do not look unkept.
Most fashion today gets its inspiration from the last five decades. Hip-hop style, on
the other hand, is gear that represents youth culture and couture. There is no chicken before the egg question here. Obviously the music came first, then the style.
Over the past three decades, hip-hop fashion has become so defined that there are hundreds of strictly hip-hop oriented labels: Rocawear, WuWear, Vokal, Ecko. Not only are these brands created for hip hop, they are owned by hip-hop artists.
David Bandy, Overland Park junior says the artist-owned clothing lines are a
hip-hop phenomenon. As a guy who dresses in hip-hop style, Bandy explained that fashion was an art form - a mode of individualistic expression. Like the music, it is more eccentric, flamboyant and colorful than the usual jeans and T-shirt look.
"It's born out of something else," Bandy said.
Levi's makes baggy jeans, and plenty of sweat suits are available from Nike, but people with hip-hop lifestyles prefer to go with the clothes affiliated with an artist.
"Well, I don't know who Levi is. He's not making records," Bandy said.
He said the reason hip-hop fans bought artist-designed clothing instead of mainstream brands was that people who wore the clothes supported that music.
But one can enjoy and produce quality beats without dressing the part.
Sean "P. Diddy" Combs has brought a new level of affluence to hip-hop clothing.
He has made progress in the fashion world with his clothing line Sean John. It is seen as one of the most chic, glamorous clothing lines in the world, up there with Gucci and Versace.
His brand, as symbol of youth and music, is a major player in the fashion game, and its prominence makes hip-hop a more recognizable lifestyle.
Another important element of hip-hop fashion is the excess factor, or as some would say, the bling-bling. It is the portrayal of cars, diamonds, and other objects of luxury that taint the hip-hop image. Bandy said this was just a phase.
"The early '90s was gangster rap and now the money sets the stage," he said.
The flashy material possessions are simply a product of the success and notoriety hip-hop has received in recent years. It represents making it in a rock 'n' roll world, which hip-hop undeniably has.
Get cardio-fit with dance classes
HEALTH
Maybe it's the thought of sweat, the waiting in line and the monotony of exercise machines that make the word "workout" strike fear in the hearts of many.
A.
Leslie Kimmel
lkimmel@kansan.com
But if you consider having the music up full blast, jumping around and making a challenge fun, the idea of a workout could easily change from tiresome to fun. Take it from me — I've been going to dance classes for 14 years.
Heather Hellman, Wichita sophomore, has been a KU Fit instructor for the past two semesters. She said classes such as cardio funk, a hip-hop aerobics class she teaches, were good workouts because they worked more muscle groups than one might normally exercise. Dance classes such as these give a full-body workout and help with overall muscle toning.
Plus, grooving to a good song can be more fun than pounding away on a stationary treadmill.
Hellman said her cardio funk classes gave her students a chance to work out with street-style moves. Her students learn eight counts of hip-hop dance steps to pop and hip-hop songs.
"It usually takes about an hour to teach six to eight eight-counts, and that's from learning a move to starting over and then (adding) a new move," Hellman said.
When you keep learning new dance steps, your body stays in constant motion, making it easy to keep up your heart rate. When your heart rate reaches your target
zone and is able to stay within it, your body is getting a cardiovascular workout.
Going to workout classes ensures that you will get a full, proper workout. Instructors make sure their students are doing each move correctly and that they finish up the session.
"You are supposed to do cardiovascular training for 30 minutes three to five times a week, 30 minutes of strength training two times a week and 30 minutes of flexibility training a week," Hellman said.
KU Fit offers a variety of classes in each of these areas. Different levels of yoga classes help students work on flexibility, weight aerobic classes improve strength and other classes offer cardiovascular training.
Classes are scheduled Monday through Thursday in the early evenings, twice on Saturdays and Sundays and once on weekday mornings. A class in each area of training is offered at a different time on weekday nights. So, by checking out what KU Fit has to offer, students can get the workout

their bodies need.
"I teach the moves (by) each arm and each leg and what they are doing," Hellman said. "(You) don't have to have any coordination."

lowa City students object to advertising junk food, video games
By Amy Jennings
The Daily Iowa via U-Wire
University of Iowa
IOWA CITY, Iowa - Local students say junk-food commercials broadcast during daily TV programming in Iowa City, Iowa, schools teach bad eating habits and directly conflict with the district's nutrition policy.
Four City High students expressed their concerns about the Channel One advertisements to the Iowa City School Board during its meeting Tuesday night. The board deferred discussion on the use of the student news program, which is intended to teach current events to junior-high schoolers, until a retreat scheduled for Oct. 19 to Oct.20.
The high schoolers said forcing students to watch the 12-minute program made them a captive audience for two minutes of commercials advertising junk food and video games.
"The hypocrisy of forcing kids to watch commercials for Snickers and Skittles and then teaching them how to make nutritious choices is almost hilarious but very disturbing," said David Heckman, City High junior.

'Verona' presents fresh take on Shakespeare
Growing up can be tough. Throw in two girls, an angry father and a dog, and it becomes The Two Gentlemen of Verona by William Shakespeare.
The play, which the University Theatre opened Oct. 4, departs from tradition by being set in an Italy that strangely resembles late-1950s America.
Donovan Atkinson
datkinson@kansan.com
THEATRE REVIEW
Director John Gronbeck-Tedesco, associate professor of theater, said he selected the period to evoke a more innocent time.
In this time, we find Proteus (Andrew York) and Valentine (Christopher Wheatley), our protagonists, saying goodbye as Valentine leaves Verona to travel the world and improve himself.
Proteus, with Valentine gone, focuses now on his love for Julia (Christina Schaffer). However, he is to go to the Duke's court in Milan. The two exchange rings and promise to be true to each other.
Proteus forgets his promise to Julia upon meeting the Duke's daughter Sylvia (Mo Perry).
Proteus' arrival in Milan sparks the action of the play, as he tells the Duke that
Valentine plans to elope with Sylvia. Valentine is then banished from the city.
While Proteus tries to win Sylvia, Valentine becomes the king of a band of outlaws.
York and Wheatley are suited to their roles, displaying a brotherly affection for each other and a youthful spirit. Wheatley almost looks too old to play a part described by Gronbeck-Tedesco as the same age as high-school senior.
York gave a solid performance as Proteus, despite a stiff start. He demonstrated more characterization after the scene changed to Milan, showing more emotion and development.
Alex Wolfson provides much of the
comedy as Valentine's servant Speed. Wolfson does go over the top with his performance, but for the most part his antics work for the part.
Some of the most comedic scenes come from David Kobzantsev's Launce and his interaction with Crab the dog. Kobzantsev has a great rapport with Moppy, the dog playing Crab. Launce also pairs up with Speed to do a bit in the audience. This bit, which incorporated some modern humor, seemed disconnected from the rest of the show.
The change from 1590s Italy to 1950s "Italy" works, especially with the help of sets and costumes designed by Beth Collins. Collins' sets resemble comic-strip panels, using forced perspective to create stylized interiors and buildings. The costumes may not be genuinely true to the late 1950s, but they bring that time frame to mind.
Pop songs from the 1950s also helped create the mood during scene transitions. The opening song, "Come Back, Girl," sung by Wolfson and Travis Ashmore, ran longer than it should have, giving the show a slow start.
THE TWO GENTLEMEN OF VERONA
The Two Gentlemen of Verona by William Shakespeare will be performed Oct.10, 11 and 12 at the Crafton-Preyer Theatre in Murphy Hall. Tickets are $12 and $14 for the public, $10 for students and $11 and $13 for senior citizens. The play is directed by John Gronbeck-Tedesco, with sets and costumes by Beth Collins and lighting design by Elinor Parker.know.
Other songs, such as "Where the Boys Are," performed by Amber Renee McIntosh, were effectively broken apart to serve as transitions into scenes.
A stand-out number was "Juvenile Delinquent," performed by Ashmore as the sewer set was raised and lowered from the orchestra pit.
By emphasizing the innocence of youth through a versatile cast, sets, costumes and the innovative use of song. the University Theatre's production of The Two Gentlemen of Verona provides a worthwhile evening of entertainment.

Although men have a much easier time seeing their stuff — the penis and the balls especially — their size, shape and actions, arc often misunderstood or worried about. Though it's easy to see what is inside a guy's pants, there is usually more going on with a man's co-existence with the penis and balls than meets the eye.
For instance, especially in younger men, the penis can get hard with little or no provocation. Though these erections usually go down in time, sometimes helped by creative visuals of grandmas in showers, having a stiffy that refuses to relent can make it difficult to walk. If a guy is turned on for long enough, he can even get an annoying ache in his balls.
When a guy does have a chance to get off, especially if he is with a partner, another penis worry usually creeps into the mix: How does his penis stack up?
This unpleasant problem, though not fatal or dangerous, can be solved easily with an orgasm. Finding a place to have an orgasm in the middle of the day, however, is another problem altogether.
Meghan Bainum mbainum@kansan.com
According to an ABC.com survey of 300 college-age men, two-thirds of the men reported a penis size of 5.1 to 6.2 inches.To put that in perspective, the article says, a so-called average penis is "about the size of a Nestle Butterfinger candy bar unwrapped)."
Sometimes, though, a man's candy bar can be king-sized or bite-sized. According to www.sexualrecords.com, the largest medically verified penis on record is 13.5 inches long and 6.25 inches around. Dr. Robert L. Dickinson found and documented this specimen of penile history in the early 20th century. The smallest verified penises, according to sexualrecords.com, fail to exceed 1 cm
when erect.
Though guys are often hung up on size, almost any penis length can give pleasure to partners, and to the penis' owner. But if there's a penis wanting some attention, where should the action be centered?
The head of the penis is sensitive, especially on the ridge on the underside of the organ, or the side that faces away from the guy when he's erect. Licking or stroking this little ridge can cause some crazy sensations. If the penis you're dealing with isn't circumcised, focus on the head of the penis. Some guys also really like some licking or stroking action on their balls as well. Talk dirty to him and ask him how he wants his stuff treated. He'll probably love it.
Just remember, although penises are fun, they are not required for good messing around. If your little guy, or the little guy of someone you know, refuses to stand at attention, give the poor penis a break and fool around in other ways.
So, let's hear it for the penises between us and around us, and the crazy life they live everyday.
Try apple pie in kitchen showdown
Every family usually has one great cook. Look out if there is more than one chef in the family because a fight could begin. But instead of breaking out boxing gloves, the contenders bust out aprons and oven mitts.
EAT THIS
Round one begins with the prepping of ingredients. The ingredients are laid out on the counter — but, wait — what's in your apron pocket? It's the secret ingredient.
ENY TIME
Round two is the smelling, the listening and the watching. The ingredients sizzle as they cook. The smells reach the perfect aroma. The oven is opened and closed again and again. By the way, don't do this. If heat escapes, your dish's internal temperature reduces, and your fire alarm goes off. Try turning on your oven light instead.
Round three is the final judgment. Family members sit down, and the tasting begins. Do they like it? The cooks wait anxiously and search for the answer in their loved ones' faces. The cooks either triumph or fail. Failure leads to an argument with responses such as, "Don't like it, don't eat it!"
If you're ever involved in a cooking showdown, try making my Grammy's famous apple crisp pie. I even included the secret ingredient, which my mom caught

Picking a major is about to get easier at the University of Kansas. Thanks to the addition of 20 new majors, University officials think they can significantly reduce the number of third- and fourth-year seniors.
According to Registrar Richard C. Morrell, of the 28,000 students enrolled at the University, about 10,000 "don't have a frigging clue what they want to do with their life."
The plan is to add fun majors students will be excited about picking — majors they will stick with and eventually graduate with. A few of the fun new majors include foosball table operation, nutrition with an emphasis in beer consumption and game show hosting. KU wants to become one of the top 25 clearinghouses in the nation for graduates by 2015.
Marty McMullen, Chicago senior and master of general studies, applauded the University's new plan.
"Take it from a fourth-year senior who has a masters degree in general studies, picking a major can be hard," McMullen said. "But, I'm switching to disk golf history and I plan to stick with it. It's either that or become a doctor of general studies specializing in generality."
McMullen said he chose disk golf history over other useless majors such as comprehensive armpit farting, ink pen refill installation and art history.
Henry C. Jackson, Kansan satire writer, said
he would switch his major to yellow journalism and go into making up news professionally.
"I've always wanted to be a journalist, but I've never been that fond of talking to people, checking facts or, well, journalism I guess," Jackson
said. "But I can do something like yellow journalism. I will seek the believable and report it."
Jackson said he would most likely work for Fox News in the President Clinton rumors division.
Local man eager to appear on radio
By Joe Stephenson Kansan satire writer
"I just had to do it, I couldn't hold back any longer," said Nate Kingsbury, when asked why he felt he had to call a local AM radio talk show.
"They were talking about banning smoking in public places, and I just thought, hey, I should say something," Kingsbury, Lawrence resident, said.
And say something he did. Kingsbury called the Ben Steadman show on KSLT 850 Tuesday afternoon and spoke his mind.
"They were getting all these calls that were like, 'Hey, we need to ban smoking in more public places,'" Kingsbury said. "So I called and said there needs to be some places where smokers can go and hang out. We can't ban smoking in all restaurants. Man, smokers got to go someplace and eat."
Kingsbury is not a smoker himself, but said
"I just had to do it, I couldn't hold back any longer." Nate Kingsbury Radio call-in guest
he "likes to stand up for people who get dumped on all the time" and that smokers "kind of get the shaft."
"You know, for a few minutes I was famous," he said. "A lot of people listen to the radio, and to be a part of the electronic media like that — wow — it's just awesome.
The best part of the call, Kingsbury said, was actually being on the air.
Kingsbury seemed to not care that 850 AM has a terrible signal and does not register with any of the ratings services.
impressed with her husband's radio appearance.
"All he has been talking about since he made that call is how cool he is for making it on the radio," she said. "And he thinks he is such a wonderful advocate because he spoke up for people who want to smoke in restaurants. It's not like he spoke out for some really important issue, or that he had a really huge audience. You know, I bet the only guy listening was some old man who gets too riled up watching TV."
Kingsbury's wife, Shannon, was not
Kingsbury shared his final thought on the subject.
"I am really glad I called in and spoke my mind. It's really great that a guy like me can make it big and get on the radio to exercise his free speech. We have a lot of freedoms that we take for granted in this country. You know, if we ever lose our right to speak out on afternoon talk shows, or we aren't able to smoke in restaurants, then the terrorists have already won."
Recently deceased Lawrence man will not be missed
By Brandon Gay
Kansan satire writer
The family, friends and neighbors of Lawrence resident George Madison, 56, who died of a heart attack Monday, said he would not be missed. Social scientists said this was perhaps the first time a dead person wouldn't be missed.
In addition, scientists said this might also be the first time a recently deceased person had been described as anything other than a terrific, honest, fun person who would do anything for anybody.
"He was really quite a jerk," said Jose Martinez, Madison's neighbor. "He never said 'hello' to me, he always seemed grumpy and one time he kicked my dog."
"God loved George Madison," Daubach said. "But I doubt he's in heaven. That butthole is probably getting what he deserves as I speak."
Dorothy Madison, George's mother, said her son wasn't very smart and was the type of person that would never go out of his way to help anyone.
"I guess I loved him, but I'm really pretty glad he's gone," Madison said. "I know you're not supposed to say that about someone when they die, but I guess I just don't feel like making a bunch of stuff up about him being smart and wonderful. The truth is, George was a big, dumb idiot who didn't really like anybody."
George's only friends, Harry and Nellie Ferguson, ran the grocery store around the corner from his house.
"He would always come in and buy macaroni and cheese dinners in bulk," Harry Ferguson said. "I guess he was an OK guy and a good customer, but I really don't think we are going to miss him that much. Next week when he doesn't come in, well, I guess it just isn't going to seem much different."
Rev. John Daubach said a few words of eulogy at Madison's funeral.

Incredible edible campus

The edible fruit of this persimmon tree in front of Strong Hall grows sweeter as it ripens. Persimmons are ripe enough to eat from late September to early December.
By Justin Henning
jhenning@kansan.com
Kansan Staff Writer
Students looking for a free lunch may only have to glance at the branches above them.
All over the University of Kansas, trees, shrubs and plants bear fruits, nuts and berries that can become a quick snack.
A pecan tree on the south side of Watson Library, a persimmon tree in front of Strong Hall, a pear tree in front of the Art and Design building and day lilies scattered throughout campus are only a few of the options.
"But we don't want people pulling up day lilies, please," said Mike Lang, landscape manager for Facilities Operations.
The buds of lilies can be used like seeds in a salad, and the parts of a bloomed lilly can be boiled and eaten as desired.
The boiling eliminates the toxic part of the plant.
"Everything on campus was planted by someone at some time," Lang said.
Since the first days of the University, trees and plants have been planted in and around the area.
Dr. Philip Wells, a retired professor of ecology and evolutionary biology, used to teach a class called "Trees and Shrubs," which dealt with what was planted on campus. He said campus has approximately 100 species of trees. One of his favorites was the fruit of the persimmon tree.
“It's quite delicious,” he said, emphasizing that they get sweeter as it ripens. “It's better than an apricot.”
But the determined student could find even more natural snacks.
Black walnut trees grow all over campus. The Visitor Center has a June berry bush, which yields berries that taste like cranberries.
A grove of Kentucky coffee trees grows behind Marvin Hall, producing a
delicacy with a quirk.
"They call it a coffee tree because you have to grind up and roast its nuts to eliminate the poison." Wells said.
Students do not typically practice the art of foraging. In fact, Lang had never considered eating off of anything planted on campus.
"We don't put poison on them," he said. "It's just that I've never really thought about it before."
It's not something that crosses the minds of students either. Kate Wilkinson, Colorado Springs, Colo., junior, had never thought about eating off of trees as she walked to class.
She said she had other things to think about.
"I've never been hungry enough to eat stuff off the ground,"she said.
Lilly Spicher, Milwaukee freshman, was receptive to the idea of natural snacking once she heard about it.
"It would be a pretty handy thing to go up to a tree and eat what's on it," the Milwaukee freshman said.
Other exotic trees grow outside the boundaries of campus. A pawpaw tree grows in the front yard of a house just off 14th Street, past the scholarship halls.
"It tastes like a mix between pineapple and banana," Wells said. "It has a soft, creamy interior and a tropical flavor."
Currently, only one campus-grown treat is in season.
The persimmon tree bears fruit ready to be eaten, but there may not be any left. Lang said he hadn't seen much fruit
from the tree this year.
In the meantime, students can wait and see what other sorts of fruit and nuts crop up on campus, and wait is just what Lang wants them to do.
"If the plants aren't mature, then picking stuff off of it might cause damage to the plant," he said.
Regardless of the plethora, some students are still oblivious and uninterested to their edible surroundings. Douglas Waterbury, Wichita sophomore, said he never noticed the edible products of trees and shrubs and thought it would still be dirty to eat off of them if he did know.
"The idea is completely odd," he said.

October is domestic violence month and some student and community groups are using this month to make sure the entire community is focused on ending the problem.

about domestic violence, because survivors of domestic violence may not have that name for it and may not fully realize they are a victim," said Sally Puleo, program director for WTCS.

Local group happy to party Thursdays
HAPPY THURSDAY!

Each Thursday residents of 922 Tennessee gather with friends to celebrate Thursdays.
TvlerLonnine/Kansan
On a sunny afternoon yesterday, about 15 people gathered in the driveway of 922 Tennessee St. Conversation flowed along with the beer; viking hats were donned, and almost everyone wore a T-shirt that read "Happy Thursday."
Since April, every Thursday save one, Sean Collins, Garden City senior, Skyler Marsh, Lawrence resident and Doug Owings, Lawrence resident have thrown a party outside their apartment. For them, the day of the week is reason enough to celebrate.
They are known as the "Happy Thursday guys."
Collins said the idea was born one beautiful Thursday afternoon last April
"We decided we should go outside, drink, and wave at people," Collins said.
Everyone is welcome at a Happy Thursday party and cups for the keg are $5. Marsh said. The viking-esque horn helmets appeared when the group bought them at last year's final four tournament.
Marsh said he began making and selling the T-shirts three weeks ago, and he started making business cards that say,
"Happy Thursday, come join us! 922

"A lot of it has to do with sight distances, people backing out of driveways." Wilden said.

More to custodian than 'dirty work'
by Cateb Nothwehr

Kansan staff writer
Hewitt is a custodial specialist on two floors of the all-girl residence hall, but her job lets her see more than how dirty students are.
While tidying the halls of GSP-Corbin, Wendy Hewitt becomes the eyes and ears of KU student life. And, every once in a while, she has to clean footprints off the wall.
"I like it here because I get to see the next generation come of age," Hewitt said.
Hewitt, who has been a custodial specialist for three years, is one of more than 40 workers who keep the residence halls clean.
On a typical day, Hewitt clocks in at 6:55 a.m. and begins cleaning the student housing office. By 8 a.m., she moves into the residence hall, dusting furniture and vacuuming lobby floors.
Cleaning up after 26 girls has afforded Hewitt the opportunity to see some unusual messes.
"I walked into a room one summer to clean it, and there were footprints on the ceiling," she said. "I said, 'I don't even want to know this one.'"
Now two months into the school year, Hewitt said she couldn't be happier with the girls on the floors she cleans.

Edwards campus to start new building construction
Construction will begin on a new building at the Edwards campus Monday morning after a groundbreaking ceremony at the site.
The 82,000-square-foot building will have faculty offices, an auditorium and 21 classrooms, which will help accommodate increased enrollment. Upon the building's completion in 2004, enrollment at the Edwards campus is expected to double to 4,000 students.
"We've maxed out our classroom space," said Elaine Warren, public relations director for the campus. "It is our hope to increase our degree programs and, in doing so, we need to expand the campus."
The building has been made possible by $17.8 million in private donations from the revenue bonds, Hall Family Foundation, and the Victor and Helen Regnier Charitable Foundation of Leawood, for whom the building will be named.
Students to solicit hair to benefit children's group
Students have organized Rock Your Locks Off, a program to benefit Locks of Love, a nonprofit group that provides custom-fitted wigs to children with medical hair loss.
Stylists will be on Wescoe Beach from 9:30 a.m.to 3:30 p.m.Tuesday to make initial cuts for donors.Donors will then receive gift certificates for free follow-up haircuts from Headmasters, The Total Look, Sakaroff's or Get Ready salons.
Donors' hair must be at least 10 inches long, dry and undamaged.
The event is sponsored by KJHK and organized by Brenda Pollom, St. Louis senior, who will also be donating
her hair.
Pollom said she hoped about 45 students would join her in making donations.
"People have already been dropping off hair at my house," Pollom said. "It's kind of gross. I'm keeping them in a box, and they're all bagged up."
For more information on the event, e-mail Pollom at brendor@ku.edu.

Tuesday accident victims still hospitalized
The KU student and the Johnson County Community College student who were injured early Tuesday in a head-on collision with a tractor-trailer are still being treated at the University of Kansas Medical Center in Kansas City, Kan.
Driver Joshua Ian Lawrence Walton, Olathe sophomore, was in critical condition yesterday and his passenger Ryan D. Galemore, JCCC student and former KU student, was in serious condition.
The two men from Olathe were injured Tuesday after a head-on collision with a tractor-trailer that was driving the wrong way at about 2 a.m. Tuesday on Kansas Highway 10. Both were taken by air ambulances to the University of Kansas Medical Center.
Horace Jordan, the driver of the tractor-trailer, was transported to Lawrence Memorial Hospital by ambulance. He was treated and then released.
Douglas County Sheriff Glenn R. Trapp said deputies were still investigating the accident. After the investigation is complete, it will be forwarded to the Douglas County District Attorney's Office.

Former student,professor receives a Nobel Prize
By Katie Nelson
knelson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Even Nobel Prize winners drink Pabst Blue Ribbon beer.
When Vernon Smith, 75 attended the University of Kansas from 1949 to 1952, he pursued an economics graduate degree and lived in the Rock Chalk Co-op on Ohio Street with 17 other men. There they brewed 20 gallons of what Smith calls "fine home brew" every few weeks using Pabst barley malt.
Smith was awarded the Nobel Prize for economics Wednesday. He shares the award and the $1 million prize with Daniel Kahneman, a Princeton University professor.
The Royal Swedish Academy of Science, which administers the prize, awarded them for their innovative studies of how psychology affects buying decisions and their development of using laboratory experiments for economic experiments.
Smith is currently a professor of economics and law at George
Mason University in Arlington, Va. He has also taught at the University of Arizona, Purdue University, Brown University and the University of Massachusetts.
His roots, however, are in Kansas.
His books, however, are in Russia. Smith grew up in Wichita, where he attended Wichita North High School. He went on to get an electrical engineering undergraduate degree from the California Institute of Technology, and he received his masters of economics from KU in 1951.
"After taking an economics course at Cal Tech, I thought, well, I'll go back to where tuition is a lot lower," he said.
And the decision paid off. After teaching introductory economics at KU for a year, he went to Harvard University to get his doctorate in economics.
"My training there at the University of Kansas made Harvard quite easy," he said. "I had such a good background from my years at KU, and a year of teaching, that I was very well-prepared in terms of knowledge."
During his time in Lawrence,
Smith was married and had twins, a boy and a girl, who are now 51 years old.
He has since returned to Mount Oread several times to give and attend lectures. He was last here three years ago attending a seminar on market-based management.
Joshua Rosenbloom, KU professor of economics, said Smith's research influenced the way economies is taught.
"It takes us away from chalk- and-talk teaching," Rosenbloom said. "Because of his work in experimental and laboratory economics, we use classroom demonstrations and many of us have students get up and participate in creating markets in class and showing how those markets work."
Smith said he would continue researching economic reciprocity, electric power deregulations and experimental airport pricing that could make air travel safer.
"I'll continue to do what I do, whether I got a call from Stockholm or not," he said.

No space for new magnet
By Michelle Burhann
mburhenn@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
University of Kansas researchers can't find a room big enough on campus to house a 14-foot. 4-ton magnet.
The researchers at the University of Kansas' Lawrence campus received $5 million as part of a $120 million bond issue approved by the Kansas Legislature. The money will go toward advancing the University's protein research, including $3 million for a high field Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectrometer and its housing.
But the size and weight of the structure make finding a place on campus difficult, said David VanderVelde, director of laboratories.
"Maybe the middle of Allen Fieldhouse?" VanderVelde said. "I don't think that's available."
VanderVelde said the spectrometer was a close cousin to an MRI scanner that is used in hospitals. A sample is placed within the magnet and uses magnetic fields and radio waves to produce a spectrum that can give information about a structure.
The magnetic field of the structure requires a room with at least an 18-foot ceiling with no steel reinforcements, he said. No cars or other similar structures can be within a 40-foot radius of the spectrometer.
Jim Roberts, associate vice provost for research, said a committee formed after the bond issue passed was looking at building a site at West Campus near 21st and Iowa streets or building an addition onto Malott Hall.
"But even getting the thing on campus is dicey." Roberts said. "Just the logistics can cause problems."
The University has nine of these instruments, VanderVelde said. The University's biggest Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectrometer in Malotl Hall is about 9 feet tall, weighs about a ton and cost the University about $800,000. The new spectrometer will be the biggest in the state and will put KU on the list with only about 25 other universities who have a similar NMR in the country.
The spectrometer will help KU advance its protein research, which VanderVelde
said was on the rise around the world. Kurt Wüthrich of Switzerland won half of the Nobel Prize for chemistry Wednesday for his protein studies that are similar to KU's research.
Current research focuses on proteins instead of genes, VanderVelde said. Because proteins change after they are formed by folding and mutating, diversity within organisms is high. By studying proteins, researchers can learn about how they increase diversity and affect diseases.
VanderVelde said the money will help KU researchers get ahead in the field of studying proteins.
"We're making a big investment to be on the forefront," he said.
The new NMR will help to progress the University's research. Roberts said he hoped all of the new equipment would be in place sometime next fall.
"The pace of research has just gotten more intense and much faster," VanderVelde said. "The people with the better instrument will finish first."
KU police investigate embezzlement in School of Fine Arts

Kansan staff writer
An official from the School of Fine Arts reported an embezzlement of more than $600 over a nine-month period beginning in August 2001, LL. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office said.
Bailey said officers planned to make contact with the suspect yesterday, but wouldn't arrest the suspect until after an investigation had been completed.
The theft of $614.26 from Aug.
16, 2001, to April 26, 2002, was
discovered after a routine internal audit and was reported to the campus police earlier this week,
he said.
Bailey said the KU Public Safety Office was investigating it as an internal theft, and could not say if the suspect was a current or former employee of the school.
Officials from the school had already confronted the suspect,
Bailey said the suspect had reportedly purchased items from various Lawrence businesses using school accounts.
Bailey said. He said an arrest would not be made until after the investigation was complete and forwarded to the appropriate court.
Bailey said because the suspect
The suspect allegedly tried to pay back $250, which brings the total of the theft below $500. A theft of $500 or less would be sent to municipal court, not district court.
reportedly tried to partially pay the bill at two businesses to cover up the purchases, he wasn't sure which court would get the case. Bailey said the KU Public Safety Office would have to determine which court would be most appropriate.
Toni-Marie Montgomery, dean of the school, was not available for comment yesterday.
The maximum penalty for theft between $500 to $25,000 is a fine up to $100,000 or up to seven months in prison. The maximum penalty for theft of less than $500 that would be tried in municipal court is a fine from $50 to $500. A municipal court judge could also order up to one year in prison.

Hall Center incorporates past with ideas of future
A $3.26 million gift from the Hall Family Foundation in Kansas City, Mo., will fund a new Hall Center for the humanities.
The new building will not only make the center's programs more accessible to students, but it will also be a triumph for an often overlooked discipline.
Janet Crow, executive director of the Hall Center, said the original purpose of the Hall Center was for humanities faculty members to talk with colleagues in other areas about their research to gain a broader perspective.
Now the center has evolved to offer a variety of lecture series and faculty development programs.
Because the center offers a variety of programs, a new facility was necessary in order to continue their success. The Hall Center offers seminars and lectures which will be quite accommodating in the new conference room which seats 120 people.
What are the humanities about anyway? A rough translation of its mission is tying past generations to the present and the present to the future through cultural studies.
Currently the Hall Center must hold some lectures in the Kansas Union or the Alumni Center.
The center focuses on topics such as civilization's values and changes.
The center will continue its theme of connecting the present to the past by incorporating part of the 1887 Powerhouse, KU's oldest standing structure, into its facade.
The Center is tentatively scheduled to be completed in Spring 2004. The new two-story, 11,000-square-foot building east of the Dole Center will make the Hall Center more visible on campus.
The center is now located in its 6,800-square-foot building at 1540 Sunflower Rd., about 300 feet east from the new location which will be on Sunnyside.
A new building may not be a huge deal to most University of Kansas students, considering the abundance of renovations and construction work already underway. But "when it comes to major gifts and grants, the humanities are sometimes the neglected orphan at a university," Chancellor Robert Hemenway said in an recent article in the Lawrence Journal-World.
Although many students will have graduated by the time this new building is complete, they can still reap the benefits.
Humanities stresses community outreach, and its events are open to the public.
In its founding year of 1976, the Hall Center operated out of one office in the Spencer Research Library. When few large university buildings nationwide are designed specifically for a humanities department, a new building is more than a good deal — it's a triumph.

I've got a grand idea. Instead of suffering and being the no. 9 party school in the country, let's try to be no.1. Chancellor Bob, here's how we do that. We lower tuition; therefore, students have more money to spend on alcohol and drugs and, well, partying. Therefore our ratings go up, and at least we can be the no.1 school in basketball and partying. I mean, come on, that's something to be happy about. Party at my place!

PERSPECTIVES
Run KU like a real business put the needs of students first
GUEST COMMENTARY
This year's U.S. News & World Report rankings of public research institutions noted that, despite Chancellor Robert Hemenway's goal to be ranked as a top-25 public research university, the University of Kansas dropped to 41st. I am not surprised.
In my marketing class, we covered a crucial topic: customers buy products that fill needs, and our job as marketers is to fill that conscious or subconscious need.
COMMENTARY
John Westerhaus opinion@kansan.com
My increased tuition gives me classes taught by TA's. Many are good, but a few have obvious problems communicating the material effectively, for whatever reason
Sometimes the customer can articulate their needs, other times not, but their needs still exist and successful businesses strive to discover and fill them.
In order to fill a customer's needs, you have to know who they are. The customers at this University aren't Coke or the alumni. The real customers are the students enrolled here.
I have needs here at KU, but leaving here with a diploma doesn't meet all those needs.
I have learned a lot through the classes I've taken here. I have also learned about life and made friends, but that is independent of the University.
However, I can't buy Pepsi on campus.
However, students don't learn this until it's too late to remedy because we don't have aren't allowed to review teacher evaluations so we can make an educated choice about our classes.
In addition, tenured faculty members can't be removed except in cases of gross academic or professional misconduct.
I wait in long lines to enroll, despite the fact that the lack of online enrollment has been a complaint for some time.
The Chancellor wants KU First to raise $500 million in private funding for our school so we can be ranked in the top tier, a distinction handed out by a magazine run for profit just like any other business.
I won't see a dime, though, unless it's on television.
I received all sorts of correspondence this summer telling me that the University needed more money; I have received virtually no communication regarding
how my money will be spent.
Sure, I'll leave here with a degree, but at the expense of what? A lot of people accuse the University of being run like a business, however, if the University were a true business it wouldn't worry so much about funding.
It would worry about filling customer needs, because when customers are happy, the funding follows. The University will never reach its goal of being a top 25 reasearch university as long as it continues to ignore the needs of students.
The key is to fill our needs, whether we can articulate them or not. Not filling our articulated needs creates only resentment. In fact, the businesses that are most successful are the ones that anticipate needs that even the customers weren't aware they had.
I can't justify tuition increases if our money is misspent; the University seems to have a lot of ideas on how to waste money. If this University wants good ideas, though, I suggest this: treat students as though we are appreciated. After all, we're the reason you exist in the first place.
Giving me a sound education comes standard; make me feel important, though and you'll receive money from me long after I graduate.

Preserve natural Kansas by volunteering for Monarch Watch
Every year KU students join groups such as the Environs and KU Greens. These groups work hard to show students and other citizens how to protect the environment.
However, there is a national organization on campus that, while often overlooked, does a great deal of work to preserve our natural environment.
Based in Lippincott Hall, Orley "Chip" Taylor, professor of biological sciences, heads Monarch Watch, a national study on the life cycles and migration of monarch butterflies.
KU students' walks on campus are occasionally graced by the fluttering wings of a monarch. Unfortunately, the numbers have been decreasing.
Alumni funding, along with funding from the Lawrence community has helped Monarch Watch's growing national success. That success should begin with KU volunteers.
There are currently 1,900 members across the U.S., mostly teachers, students and volunteers.
Students looking for ways to help the environment can find many valuable opportunities in the program and Monarch Watch is always looking for extra hands to help.
Volunteers of this ground-breaking studey tag the monarchs and record their sex in order to track the migration from the eastern Rocky Mountains to central Mexico.

Volunteering for Monarch Watch would give the local support that would make its home base stronger.
Across the U.S., Taylor has formed volunteer groups often headed by naturalists to record the long journey of these persistent insects.
This particular program began in January, two years ago.

reaches out to communities in Mexico that house monarchs in the wintertime. Taylor has hoped to increase the monarch awareness to children in Mexico.
Another project of Monarch Watch is testing butterflies for pesticides. The results have not yet been produced, but regardless of the outcome, the loss of habitat is the most devastating problem that the monarchs face.
Sadly enough, if the monarchs have no place to journey to, they will continue on their path to extinction.
land and the land has it, they're going to take it," Taylor said.
If the KU and Lawrence community wish to enjoy the beauty of the same Jayhawk Boulevard that alumni remember as filled with butterflies, they need to support the nationally renowned research developed at our own university.
Students should volunteer at Monarch Watch on campus in order to protect our campus environment and the environmenl of North America.

Shallenburger to speak
By Aaron Passman
apassman@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Republican gubernatorial candidate Tim Shallenburger will speak Wednesday night at the KU College Republicans meeting, but few students may be here to hear him with Fall Break beginning Thursday.
Erin Blocher, KU College Republicans Chair, said she was not worried about Fall Break affecting the turnout.
"We're hoping to fill Alderson," said Blocher, Colorado Springs, Colo., senior. "We're planning for at least 60 students, plus members of the community."
Blocher said her group had been trying to get Shallenburger
to speak at one of its weekly meetings for quite a while. She said he would speak on Oct. 16 because he would already be in the area for an event in Kansas City that night.
Marc McMiller, Chanute junior, said he was a Republican and would be interested in hearing Shallenburger speak, but did not want to miss out on Fall Break.
"If everybody is going to be leaving, it doesn't make much sense for him to talk to us then," McMiller said.
Nicole Leiker, Great Bend freshman, said she wasn't going home until Thursday evening and planned to attend Shallenburger's speech.
"I think it says a lot that he's coming and speaking to students
at the University," Leikers said. "It shows that he actually cares about our votes."
Robin Anderson, KU Young Democrats president, said her group had no plans to bring Democratic candidate Kathleen Sebelius to campus.
"It will be interesting to hear how Shallenburger is going to try to appeal to a college audience," Anderson said. "I don't think he has much in common with young voters."
Shallenburger will be joined by Scott Stewart, College Republican National Committee Chairman. The two will speak Wednesday night at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union.

Kansas residents tired of phone solicitation can still register for the Kansas No-Call list.
Mark Ohlemeier, public information officer for Kansas Attorney General Carla Stovall, said 397,697 residents had registered by the first No-Call registration deadline, which was Sept.23.The list goes into effect Nov.1.
The Kansas No-Call Act was introduced to legislature in 2001 and approved by Governor Bill Graves on May 29, 2002.

The act creates an "off limits" list that must be used by any person or business calling residential phone numbers for the purpose of soliciting a sale or extension of property or services. Under the act, a consumer's registration is
Persons and businesses that violate the act can be penalized under the Kansas Consumer Protection Act up to $10,000 per violation, according to the Office of the Attorney General.
Donna Bell, executive director at Brandon Woods Retirement Community, said at least 35 residents at Brandon Woods assisted living had signed up for the service.
Lauri Hoffman, Brandon Woods activity director, said she encouraged residents to sign up because of the amount of phone calls the seniors were receiving.
"It's frustrating watching them rush to answer the phone when it's just a solicitor," Hoffman said.
Ohlemeier said Kansas residents with a residential phone number could register for the list, which is updated every three months. The next deadline is Dec.23.
Daina Joblonski, Overland Park junior, said she would register for the service. She said she had had problems with credit cards companies.
To add a number to the list, residents may register online at www.ksag.org or call 1-866-362-4160.
Ohlmeier said he wanted to stress that the service was free. He said there were a lot of scams that offered a spot on the list for a fee.
He said people who were scammed should get all the information possible about the person or company making the offer, including a name and a phone number. Then report the incident to the Attorney General's Consumer Protection Division at 785-296-3751 or 1-800-432-2310.

A house that was formerly in the location of the Jayhawker Towers now stands at 2424 Orchard Lane. It was moved away from campus in the 1960s after the Endowment Association acquired the land the house occupied.
House survives off Hill
By Matt Stumpff
mstumpff@kansan.com
Kansan stuff writer
Gov. Bill Graves recently approved the demolition of three houses in the Oread neighborhood to make room for two scholarship halls. But University of Kansas expansion into neighborhoods is not a new practice.
Sally Postma, 1946 KU graduate, said the Jayhawker Towers were located where her college home used to be.
However, her old house remains intact, but in a different location at 2424 Orchard Lane.
"When I was young, I
Postma has lived in Lawrence her entire life. She said the landscape of the University had changed more than just the Towers being in her old neighborhood.
belonged to a bicycle club and we biked out there from KU," Postma said. "It was way out in the country, believe it or not."
Postma said her mother had the seven-level house built in 1941, right before the start of World War II.
"The house was almost not built." Postma said. "We got the materials right before the war. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to get the materials."
The war effort would have put a hold on citizens' abilities to get materials such as copper because the United States needed the materials for the war effort.
No residence halls were anywhere on campus when Postma attended the University. She lived at home while attending the University.
Steve Jansen, Lawrence historian, said the neighborhood
looked like it would be a mainstay until the Endowment Association acquired the land the house occupied in the 1960s. The University finished work on the Towers in Sept. 1969.
Postma said she had thought the neighborhood would have lasted longer. Postma said her mother sold the house before the University made the decision to buy the land.
She said she was glad the people who owned the house moved it to its current location after her mother sold it.
"I was married in that house;" Postma said.
Jansen said the University had to run itself like a business so it could grow, and sometimes the University had to infringe on neighborhoods.

A treasure trove is stowed away on campus, but it is not filled with jewels. Instead it is filled with records worth thousands.
The Richard F. Wright Jazz Archive, located on the third floor of Murphy Hall, is a collection of more than 21,000 recordings of jazz music. The recordings date from the 1900s to the 1980s.
"There is no monetary value to what is in this room," said Josh Powers, the caretaker of the archive. "It is beyond value. You can easily say that the records alone are worth millions because there are records here that you can never see again."
stopped by.
Powers, Kansas City, Mo.. non-traditional junior, has been taking care of the archive for more than two months. He said few people knew about the archive. Since he began working there, only five people have
He said all students were welcome to come down and listen to the records. Because the records are so expensive, students cannot handle the records or take them out of the archive.

The records are donations from KU professors, music collectors and musicians.
Roberta Freund Schwartz, assistant professor of historical musicology, said the records were important because they were a great resource for not only musicians but students.
She said records such as "The Bright Fiery Cross" by 100% Americans, a group on the Ku Klux Klan label, was a window into an era that students should not forget.
Josh Powers, Kansas City, Mo., junior, manages the Richard F. Wright Jazz Archive on the third floor of Murphy Hall. The archive houses a collection of more than 40,000 jazz and opera recordings.
"That record indicates how commonplace racism was and how mainstream of an idea that was," Schwartz said. "It's not only the songs themselves but the subject of the records gives us an idea of the history of the United States."
Jazz music is not the only music that the archive contains. It also maintains a collection of more than 25,000 opera records. The records were donated by James Seaver, professor emeritus of history. His collection includes unique records such as "Schubert's Serenade" by Franz Schubert. Other opera records, "E Lusean le Stelle" and "Siciliana" by Enrico Caruso are worth about $20,000.
Because the records are so valuable, the archive is working on a grant for money to take care of its collection, Powers said. The
grant will allow the staff to digitize part of its collection.
"So many of our records are in real danger that the sooner that we can get them converted into a digital format the better," Powers said. "Money is really the only thing that can keep our collection on par with other distinct collections. We really need to get the funds to protect the records so these treasures can be appreciated like they should be."

Parade of Jayhawks to flock to Lawrence
Bv Jenna Goepfert
Kansan staff writer
A fleet of 200-pound Jayhawks will descend on Lawrence next year.
Five-foot-tall fiberglass Jayhawks will take to the sidewalks as part of 'Jayhawks on Parade' this March. The program is an articon event similar to the 'Cows on Parade' in Kansas City.
"The difference is that Lawrence has the Jayhawk and nobody else does," said Susan Henderson, marketing manager for the Lawrence Convention and Visitors Bureau.
Area artists can submit their
proposals for designing Jayhawks to a jury, which is made up of event organizers and University of Kansas officials. Artists will be sponsored by area businesses or individuals. Organizers want to sponsor the creation of at least 30 Jayhawks.
Artists will receive a $1,000 stipend from the visitors bureau to make their designs.
The sponsorship fee is $4,500 and sponsors will donate the birds to community organizations to keep or use to raise funds when the event concludes in October 2003.
"I think it's going to be a blast," said Brad Kemp, bureau advisory board member and assistant public affairs director for the Natural
History Museum. "It's one of the opportunities for the community and University to work with each other on a project."
Kemp said the idea had been well received by the University and city throughout its planning.
Henderson said organizers had been brainstorming for the event for several years and the uniqueness of the Jayhawk finally sold organizers on the event.
Both Henderson and Kemp said they wanted to have student involvement in the event.
"Some of the most interesting stuff will come out of art students just getting started in their careers and doing some cutting edge stuff," Kemp said.
Shana Kayne, Leawood junior and industrial design major, said she would consider designing a Jayhawk for the display. She said the project would provide opportunities for art students and to enhance the community.
"It would give us a chance to add a little bit more uniqueness to Lawrence," Kayne said. "A lot of times art gets put on the backburner, so this is something that will bring it to the community's attention."
Informational meetings will be at noon Tuesday, Oct. 15, and 5:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 17, at the Lawrence Visitor Information Center, 402 N. 2nd St.

'Proud to be a Jayhawk' Fund-raiser
This week's spotlight: KU Marching Jayhawks
The KU game-day experience includes responsible pre-game tailgating, made possible by "Proud to be a Jayhawk" fundraising. Fans can participate by purchasing football programs; $1 of every program sold this season will go to four beneficiaries: KU's Korean War Memorial Fund, KU Marching Band, KU/K-State Phi Gamma Delta Run for Leukemia, and KU sports clubs.
Please remember when you tailgate:
Alcohol may be consumed only during a three-hour pre-game period in designated parking lots. Alcohol may not be brought into the stadium. Underage drinking or unlawful conduct will not be tolerated.
The Marching Jayhawks have been an important part of the color, pageantry, and tradition of KU for more than 100 years. A KU football game would not be complete without the band's march down the Hill into the stadium or the traditional KU pre-game and half-time shows.
Membership in the band is open to all students, regardless of major. The Proud to be a Jayhawk program will help fund new instruments.
KU
uniforms and travel for these volunteers who perform in front of more people each year than any other ensemble on campus.
So while you cheer on the 'Hawks and even if you don't tailgate -please consider supporting this worthwhile project. If you want to do more than purchase a copy of today's football program, please contact the KU Endowment Association. (888)653-6111.

Violence CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
Although domestic violence does not target just women, women are the victims in 83 percent of the domestic violence cases.
Rates for battered women are over three times as high as those for battered men, according to the Bureau of Justice Statistics' 1995 report entitled "20 years of Surveying Crime Victims."
Although domestic violence occurs disproportionately to women, Puleo said it was important to reach the entire community.
"Men have the power to stop violence in the home, and the entire community has the power to help stop this problem," she said.
State law requires police to make a custodial arrest if probable cause of domestic violence exists, said Sgt. Mike Patrick of the Lawrence Police Department.
Reliable statistics for domestic violence in Lawrence were not available from the Lawrence Police Department because the reports are categorized under other codes, like
burglary or assault.
"There are certain bruising patterns and facial injuries that could point to a domestic violence situation," he said.
Pattrick said most cases were called in by one of the people fighting, but sometimes police had to investigate further if someone did not admit they had
been a victim of domestic violence.
Lawrence Memorial Hospital's records show between 0 to 3 on average were treated in per month as a result of domestic violence, but Belinda Rehmer communications specialist for the hospital, said this statistic was not reliable.
This is because some women choose not to report they were victims of domestic violence she said.

Collins said he and his roommates planned on continuing the party even when the weather turned cold.
"We'll put a metal firepit out here," he said.
Collins said people usually stayed until they headed to the bars later in the night.
The Happy Thursday revelers enjoy talking to passersbys on the street, but Collins said sometimes reactions to their activities were not positive.
"Sometimes we get a mean look or a middle finger," he said.
After a negative reaction, Collins said the revelers would respond in kind.
Most reactions are positive. Yesterday, honks peppered the air as cars passed, even though they were not prompted. Collins

"I think that's what draws people." he said.
Collins said he sometimes saw a police officer who hangs out the car window and shouts: "Drink one for me!"
Stephanie Wichla, Wichita senior, said she had been going to Happy Thursday since its conception. She said she had known Collins, Marsh and Owings since high school.
"It's the one day of the week we know we'll hang out," she said.
Leah Speranza, Pratt sophomore, said while she had never been to a Happy Thursday, it sounded like a good idea.

Kelly said the girls on her floor tried to keep the floor clean in order to show their appreciation of Hewitt.
"We do our best not to make it difficult on her," Kelly said. "We try to make sure all of our paper towels make it in the trash can."
Hewitt said she did receive some complaints when she cleaned the bathrooms. During this time, the bathrooms are offlimits to residents anywhere from 20 minutes to an hour.
"It depends on how bad the

In between emptying trash and washing walls, Hewitt watches as residents adjust to the college lifestyle.
"With the freshmen, it seems like they're just breaking out from underneath mom and dad," she said.
Although Hewitt's job requires her to pick up after people all day, she still doesn't mind doing it for her husband and six-year-old child.
"I haven't totally lost motivation for cleaning house," she said. "At least so far, anyway."
Hewitt clocks out at 3:25 p.m.She said when she looked back on each day, she realized the most satisfying part had nothing to do with cleaning.
"I like it when the girls say, Good morning, Wendy," she said.

Einhorn murder trial underway
The Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Former hippie guru Ira Einhorn did not kill his girlfriend more than 20 years ago, and he fled the country only because he was "plain scared," his lawyer said Monday. But the prosecutor said evidence against him was strong.
As opening statements in Einhorn's murder trial got under way, prosecutor Joel Rosen said he had a history of violence against women, reading a poem from Einhorn's personal journals, in which the defendant allegedly described how he had beaten and choked another ex-lover. The poem's closing lines were, "In such violence, there may be freedom."
apartment, where her body was found two years later in a steamer trunk. Einhorn jumped bail on the eve of his 1981 trial and spent more than 16 years on the lam before he was nabbed in France.
"He had his own little bizarre philosophy of violence. It was OK to him." Rosen said.
Rosen promised to present overwhelming evidence that Einhorn, 62, killed Holly Maddux in 1977 in their West Philadelphia
Defense attorney William T. Cannon asked jurors not to assume Einhorn was guilty just because he fled.
"Ira Einhorn in January 1981 was plain scared," he said. "He was scared about the prospect of injustice, the kind of injustice that takes place when the prosecutor's office is not playing with a fair deck."
Einhorn will take the stand and will testify that he never physically assaulted Maddux, Cannon said.
Einhorn appeared attentive as the trial opened Monday, alternately taking notes and closely watching jurors.
Maddux's three sisters and her brother were in the gallery. "This to me is the final chapter. It's here," one of the sisters, Buffy
Hall, said last week. "We trusted the system would work and it ultimately did, even against astronomical odds."
The jury was chosen in just a few days last week — quicker than expected. Lawyers on both sides had thought the media frenzy that has surrounded Einhorn would make it hard to find people without an opinion on the case.
Einhorn's lawyers may call celebrities such as Ellen Burstyn and Peter Gabriel as character witnesses. His New Age philosophy had gained him a following among the rich and influential in the 1970s.
Maddux's mummified remains were found two years after she disappeared when neighbors complained about an odor coming from Einhorn's apartment. Einhorn had told police that Maddux went to the store and never returned.
Einhorn was arrested, but released on bail after several
prominent Philadelphiaans vouched for his character. After he disappeared on the eve of trial, he was convicted in absentia in 1993, and he was arrested in 1997 living with his wife in a converted windmill in southern France.
He was returned to the United States in July 2001 only after prosecutors agreed to a French request not to seek the death penalty and the Legislature passed a law allowing the original conviction to be vacated. France does not extradite foreign nationals based on trials in absentia.
Einhorn has said he was framed for Maddux's murder by the CIA because of his knowledge of their secret mind-control weapon experiments.
In his opening statement, Cannon suggested that evidence in the case may have been manipulated in favor of the district attorney's office. Cannon also said that physical evidence indicated that Maddux was not killed in Einhorn's apartment.
Memorials for Sept.11 planned
The Associated Press
At 8:46 a.m. Sept. 11, bells will ring in firehouses and churches across the country. The strains of Mozart's Requiem will be heard in time zones worldwide, sung by symphonies and school choirs.
Splinters of the destroyed buildings will be on display in states such as Nevada, Tennessee, Ohio and Wyoming. Americans will gather at public plazas and government buildings in cities and towns across the country for moments of silence and remembrances.
At the epicenters of the attacks, in New York City, the Pentagon, and a rural Pennsylvania town, government leaders will join victims' families in remembering the first anniversary of the attacks. In Boston, where terrorists boarded the planes that destroyed the World Trade Center, all takeoffs
and landings will halt for a minute at the moment the first tower was struck a year ago.
But the day will also be marked in smaller ways, with candlelight vigils, music and prayer services in thousands of American communities that felt the shockwaves.
In places such as Wilmot, N.H., the loss was intensely personal. One of the town's 1,110 residents, Thelma Cuccinello, 71, died aboard a hijacked flight. Using money raised at farmer's markets and car washes, the town has built a bandstand that will be dedicated Wednesday.
"It will give the town a reason to come together," said Rhonda Gauthier, the town selectman's secretary and chairwoman of the bandstand committee. "We are dedicating it to all the victims and heroes."
Parishioners rally behind accused
The Associated Press
The reforms were meant to restore trust and end a crisis.
But three months after America's Roman Catholic bishops promised to aggressively discipline priests who molest children, resistance to their policy is intensifying and the plan could be coming undone.
Parishioners are rallying behind accused priests. Clergy are suing alleged victims and complaining to the Vatican. Experts in church law are questioning whether the plan violates priests' rights.
"It is unraveling," said the Rev. Richard McBrien, a liberal theologian from the University of Notre Dame.
Leaders of religious orders have accused the bishops of ignoring Catholic teaching on redemption and are allowing some abusers to continue their church work away from children.
"I don't think anybody knows where we're headed," said Philip Lawler, a conservative and editor of Catholic World Report magazine.
The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops insists its members are on the right track. Officials point to dioceses nationwide that have expanded their lay review boards, hired people to help victims and suspended accused priests.
At least 300 of the nation's 46,000 clergy have either resigned or been taken off duty over abuse claims since the molestation crisis erupted in January with the case of one predator in the Archdiocese of Boston. Under the bishops' policy, guilty priests are to be removed from all church work — from saying Mass to teaching school to balancing the parish's books — and in some cases from the priesthood altogether.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 11).
Shop carefully before you buy real estate or something important for your home. Be critical. Read all the fine print. Dig for the details. The more you know before you write the check, the better the surprises will be.
Aries (March 21-April 19). Today is a 7. One little thing could cause difficulties, so go over your checklist again. Do everything perfectly, and you'll impress a very influential person.
Taurus (April 20-May 20). Today is a 6.
An outing this weekend will do wonders to brighten your spirits. This doesn't have to be expensive. Meanwhile, put one of your worries to rest or simply toss it out.
Gemini (May 21-June 21). Today is a 7. You're blessed with good communication skills, and they're getting even better. Don't hesitate to bring up a delicate subject (money) with a loved one.
Cancer (June 22-July 22). Today is a 4. You're not working hard for nothing, you know. But you can still get somebody to help. That wouldn't be a violation of the rules.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). Today is a 7.
You're smart but not infallible. A scheme
that at first seems brilliant still needs
some more work. Be cautious in order to
avoid extra expenses.

Late Night opportunity to show off dance skills
Late Night with Roy Williams kicks off at 10 tonight at Allen Fieldhouse with a hint of conflict.
S
While few doubt the abilities of the players on the court, no one seems to be able to agree which men's basketball player has the best dance moves.
"All the basketball players are really good dancers," Laura Alexander, sophomore Crimson Girl, said. "But Aaron Miles is by far the best and he's very modest about it."
Deanna Doyle, senior and co-captain of the Crimson Girls, said sophomore guard Miles had the most personality in his dancing. Miles disagreed.
Collison, senior forward, said Miles was not exactly right.
"I'm not the best dancer." Miles said. "Nick Collison can move. Big Nick can move."
"He's just messing with you." Collison said. "I can't dance. I'm the fourth-worst dancer on the team."
Collison said the list of worst dancers ran down as follows: Stephen Vinson, freshman guard; Christian Moody, freshman forward; Kirk Hinrich, senior guard; then Collison.
"I guess I'm the best white guy on the team," he said.
The basketball players will showcase their dancing skills, or lack thereof, with the help of the spirit squad.
Kenny Howell, Crimson Girl co-captain, said the music was a variety of pop songs that people would recognize.
She said this year's line-up consisted of 90 percent dancing at the request of Roy Williams. The men's basketball sophomores added a surprise to this year's show with a dance they choreographed to the song "The Way We Ball" by Lil' Flip.
"You can only imagine," Lee said. "It will be fun but it's not going to look too good."
Doyle said she looked forward to the team's circle dance when Williams danced with his players because it was a crowd favorite. Duncan said her favorite part of the night was when the first skit began.
"The lights are down and then they come on and it's you and the basketball players and the fans," Duncan said. "It's amazing. I get goose bumps every time."
Both basketball teams and the spirit squad have been practicing from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m., every night this week.
Miles said the practices were long and the teams were tired, but they would be ready for tonight's show.
"It's chaotic the week before, but it always turns out Friday night," Duncan said. "I'm crossing my fingers."

Williams honored for coaching record
Kansas men's basketball coach, Roy Williams, will be awarded the John R. Wooden "Legends of Coaching" honor.
"It's sort of mind boggling to be honest with you," Williams said. In 14 seasons, Williams has a record of 388-93 (.807), giving
him the best winning percentage among all active Division I coaches with at least six years of experience. He has won more games in the first 14 years of a coaching career than anyone else in the history of the sport.
Williams has guided Kansas to 13 consecutive 20-win seasons, each of which led to an NCAA tournament appearance.

Tonight is first chance to see team
By Bob Johnson
conrespondent@kansan.com
Kansan correspondent
Every fall, spirits are downtrodden by another struggling season of Kansas football only to be rejuvenated with one magical night that previews athletic glory to come.
Tonight, the men's and women's basketball teams will again be performing in the Late Night with Roy Williams variety show, a show for those fans who just can't wait any longer to get a glimpse of this year's basketball teams.
Waiting for the festivities does not seem to bother some KU students, as long as they get a good seat.
"My friends and I camped out longer than anybody else for every home game last season," Adam Irwin, Russell sophomore, said. "We don't care if there's not a real game on Friday, we'll be at Allen Fieldhouse by noon anyway."
"I don't care if there is rain, snow, sleet or shine, like the mailman I'll be there."

Those who wait the longest seem to take great pride in their endurance. Some feel it is their duty to be one of the first in attendance.

shine, like the mailman. I'll be there."
Even before the action starts, the crowd at Late Night is rowdy. New hopes are sparked and Kansas fans are awakened from their fall slump as Roy and the boys unveil what could be yet another Final Four-bound team.
"I've been going to Late Night my whole life," David Stauffer, Topeka junior, said. "I
Although a good seat to this extravaganza is ideal, getting a prime view can take hours of waiting in line or sitting in the fieldhouse before the events begin.
"It really isn't that bad," Molly White, Leawood sophomore, said. "One of my friends brings her guitar, we sing some tunes, play cards, that sort of thing. The time files by pretty quickly."
Music, retelling of memorable moments from seasons past, kidding around with friends and other forms of revelry are excellent distractions to the tedious period of waiting. Another popular and simple time-wasting activity is people-watching.

"I just want to go and see the girls," Jim Bridges, Oklahoma City freshman, said.
Whether you view Late Night as an opportunity to jump into basketball season early or merely as a means to getting a date for next weekend, tonight is sure to be an exciting evening.

Roy Williams dances with all of the basketball players at last year's Late Night with Roy Williams. Late Night action will begin tonight at 10 at Allen Fieldhouse.
Late Night with Roy Williams affects everyone differently. If you're a fan, you rush to Allen Fieldhouse. If you're a sports junkie you visit Internet chat rooms and listen to radio talk shows to discuss the high school recruits who invariably attend. If you're a Crimson Girl you try to teach basketball players to dance.
And if you're freshman forward Erica Hallman you worry.
"I don't get nervous playing in basketball games, but I'm doing something I'm not very good at," Hallman said.
She has to dance, and if it were up to the quiet Hallman, she would prefer to save that for Big 12 opponents.
"They got me dancing, and I'm not a dancer," she said. "The only dancing I do is on the court."
Sophomore forward Blair Waltz said she was looking forward to seeing the newcomers' reactions to the crowd.
"I just can't wait to see the look on their faces when they walk out into the stadium with 16,000-plus people looking at them doing something that they hate to do," she said.
Drawing from a year of experience with the event, Waltz had a tip for surviving Late Night stage fright.
"I always try to focus on my parents," she said. "I look at my parents the whole time, and just try to block out everyone else."
A few butterflies are common, even
for a three-year Late Night veteran. Senior point guard Kirk Hinrich said his experience wouldn't make it any easier.
"My favorite part is when the clock strikes 12," he said. "I don't feel like making a fool of myself as much anymore."
would evaluate Hinrich's condition Friday morning, and make a decision on his playing status.
Dancing and a few skits might be all the action Hinrich sees Friday night. Coach Roy Williams said he may hold Hinrich out of the scrimmage because of a hip pointer he suffered during a pickup game Saturday night. He said doctors
Hinrich said the hip was not serious, and he would still like to play in the scrimmage.
"I think it could be all right as long as I don't get hit there again," he said.
If Hinrich doesn't play, he won't be the only one. Junior forward Bryant Nash broke his thumb earlier this season and likely won't play.
Williams said transfer forward Jeff Graves wouldn't play either. Although listed in the Kansas basketball media guide as a member of the squad, Williams said Graves had yet to make the team, and he would not discuss his status further.
Williams publicly criticized Graves earlier this year for being overweight and out of shape.

Soccer recovers, faces challenge

The Kansas women's soccer team will face a tough test this weekend as it hosts games against Oklahoma State and Oklahoma and recover from tough games against Baylor and Texas Tech.
Kansas traveled to Texas last weekend and left with a split as it lost to Baylor, then rebounded to beat Texas Tech. Coach Mark Francis knows his team will have to play better this weekend to contend with the Oklahoma State Cowgirls and the Oklahoma Sooners.
"We need to play up to our level and not our opponent'slevel," Francis said. "We did not do that last weekend, and that cost us a game."
The Jayhawks enter this weekend's games with a record of 8-2-2 and a conference mark of 2-1-1. Oklahoma State brings in an 11-1 record, while the Sooners hold a 9-3 mark.
SEE SOCCER PAGE 14A
Oklahoma State is led by junior forward Jere Boykin who has seven goals and three assists for the season. Oklahoma's offensive arsenal is led by senior Krissy Dawson and junior Logan Womack. Both Dawson and Womack have netted seven goals so far this sea
Oklahoma State suffered its first loss of the season last Friday as Iowa State defeated the Cowgirls 2-1. But the team rebounded from the loss and beat East Central College 6-0 on Monday.
Oklahoma comes to Lawrence after defeating non-conference opponent Texas Christian last Friday 2-0. The Sooners also fell to Iowa State 2-1.
Better sound system for Late Night fans
By Jessica Scott
jscott@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
It all starts tonight.
Late Night—the inaugural event of the Kansas basketball season—kicks off after 195 days of downtime.
Tonight fanaticism of Jayhawk fans will show itself as people of all ages cram into Allen Fieldhouse and wait until the show starts.
But unlike last year's event, fans hope to actually hear what's going on this time.
A bad public address system caused audio difficulties at Late Night 2001. When the women's and men's teams performed, the audience couldn't understand what they were saying.
Brad Nachtigal, events and facilities director for Kansas athletics, said improvements to the system had been made since last season. Tonight the changes will be tested in front of a packed house.
"We've modified and updated the current sound system," Nachtigal said. "The floor and bleacher areas have better sound distribution. The addition of a few new speakers and the repositioning of others will help them work better."
Nachtigal said the University of Kansas contracted with Coffeen Fricke and Associates, Inc., who joined forces with Dodge Electronics in Topeka to update the sound system.
This update was prompted by Kansas coach Roy Williams, who called for major improvement.
"It's almost embarrassing," Williams said after the event. "It took away a great deal of enjoyment for me. We've either got to figure out a way for it to be heard, or maybe 14 Late Nights is enough."
Preliminary testing of the updates happened yesterday. Nachtigal said the sound seems better already.
Doors open at 6 p.m. with performances beginning around 10 p.m.

Kansas basketball fans need to overcome complacency
The dawn of a new season for Kansas basketball and tonight's Late Night celebration are two of the most anticipated times of the year for Jayhawk fans. However, one head-scracher remains for me from last spring and that is the complacency that KU fans showed after a Final Four debacle.
The Jayhawks were far and away the most talented team in last year's NCAA tournament. Once the dirty Duke Blue Devils were upset by Indiana in the Sweet Sixteen, Kansas was the clear-cut favorite to bring home the gold.
But, the celebration was put on hold by Maryland. Don't get me wrong, Maryland was a talented team, with two of their starters, Chris Wilcox and Juan Dixon, being lottery picks in June's NBA Draft. But the
Terrapins did not have the amount of talent and depth as our boys in blue. The Jayhawks ran out to a 13-2 lead over the Terrapins, but then went into hibernation for the next 30 minutes, until it was too late to overcome a 20-point deficit.
SPORTS COMMENTARY
The team was welcomed back to Allen Fieldhouse by gracious fans thanking them for an exhilarating ride throughout the season. That's fine.
Students had a chance to thank the players for a great season with a rally at Memorial Stadium. That's acceptable.
Then there was a parade planned on Massachusetts Street for the team a week later, which was eventually rained out. That's ridiculous.
A parade? Are you kidding me? Yeah, it was a great team that provided lots of
Ryan Greene rgreene@kansan.com
excitement, storylines and memorable moments, but they didn't win anything in Atlanta.
I have seen my share of disappointments from my favorite teams to know the pain, but there are some cases where you just can't accept failure.
For example, as a lifelong Michigan Wolverines fan, my 11-year-old heart
was ripped from its cavity in April of 1993, when Chris Webber called a time out that he didn't have, only to blow a national championship for Michigan.
As a fan of a team, one major rule that I have learned over the years is you cannot allow yourself to become complacent.
Fans of teams that are obviously heads above the rest when it comes to coaching, talent and execution should expect the best year-in and year-out. That is why I consider New York Yankees fans — as much as I despise the team — the best fans that sports has to offer. They know their队 is able to draw the best talent in the league each off-season, much like we can land top recruits, and when their high-profile team fails, like they did last week, the fans show their unhappiness.
This has the potential to be a monumental season on the KU basketball timeline. Kirk Hinrich and Nick Collison are both set to run for player of the year, and both will be lottery picks in the NBA next June. Aaron Miles is expected to score more this season, giving a complement to his abilities as a court general. Keith Langford showed in the NCAA Tournament that he is ready to be a primetime player, and Wayne Simien's possibilities for the near future look endless.
I may not bleed crimson and blue, but I know as a lifelong Chicago Cubs fan that there are only so many times that you can say "wait till next year."

Snaky couldn't believe it. He had lost again
Summer teaches program lessons
The Associated Press
NEW YORK—CBS executive Kelly Kahl feels a little like a football player, all taped up and wearing pads, anxiously waiting in the locker room for the start of a new season.
Before he can charge onto the field, it might be worth a look back at the summer to see what lessons it might offer.
The summer's big story undoubtedly was Fox's "American Idol," which grabbed young viewers first and gradually became a hit. Nearly 28 million people were watching Wednesday when Kelly Clarkson won.
Those who follow the television business closely are more intrigued by two other numbers 53 and 38. Those were the average percentages of television sets tuned in to an ad-supported basic cable channel and one of the seven broadcast networks, respectively. That's right — 38 percent for the old over-the-air broadcasters.
It wasn't too long ago, back in 1996, when they commanded nearly 59 percent of the audience in summer. Except for the years when "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" and "Survivor" were
hits, it's been a swift decline that accelerated this year.
In a startling sign of the times, this summer's most popular new scripted series, "Monk," was on cable (USA). ABC agreed to show "Monk" reruns, the first time a network ever made such an arrangement with a cable channel, and it quickly became ABC's most popular entertainment series.
The "Survivor" and "Millionaire" experiences proved viewers crave new programming in the summer, and will leave back porches or beaches for something they like.

Swimming team to test out new members at Big 12 Relays

Kansas swimmers compete in the 100m butterfly at an intrasquad scrimmage. The team will compete with five other teams this afternoon in the Big 12 Relays with 12 freshmen and a new coach.

The relays include all six schools in the Big 12 that have swimming programs: Texas, Texas A&M, Missouri, Iowa State, Nebraska and Kansas.
With a new coach and 12 freshmen on the varsity team, the Jayhawks hope to get acquainted with their team better, and to learn about competition within the conference.

'Hawks prepare to battle Bears
The Kansas volleyball team will attempt to complete a task Saturday that the football team failed to accomplish last weekend — to heat Baylor
By Jason Hwang
jhwang@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
"They've always been technically sound," Bechard said. "Now we've got to counteract that with our own game plan."
Edited by Chris Wintering
The team (15-2 overall, 4-2 Big 12 Conference) will play the second game of its three-match home stand as it takes on Baylor (8-8, 2-4) at 7 p.m. Saturday in the Horejsi Family Athletics Center.
Kansas won its the first game of the home stand Wednesday against Iowa State three games
"It's always a battle against Baylor. They always come here and play hard," Junior outside hitter Abbie Jacobson said. "They like to extend rallies and digs a lot of balls."
Baylor has won three of the last four matches against Kansas, but all the matches went to five games in each of those victories. Kansas Coach Ray Bechard is 2-6 over all versus Baylor.
Soccer
CONTINUED FROM 11A
Kansas will welcome the pair of Oklahoma schools to Lawrence after setting a record attendance mark two weekends ago against Nebraska. The sudden interest is something the players feel helps them.
"It is awesome when the stands are filled and the fans are cheering hard for us," freshman Caroline Smith said. "There is no doubt that it provides us with a little extra energy and makes us play better."
son.
Smith enters this weekend's games as the Big 12 conference scoring leader with 10 goals scored and 23 points. Smith faced some trouble last weekend when she was double-teamed and did not get a single shot off against Baylor.
"Caroline is now a marked player," Francis said. "She is
getting double-teamed all the time now. She will learn to play with it though. She is an extremely tough kid."
Smith also leads the conference with four game-winning goals and has been named Big 12 Player of the Week twice in the past four weeks. Smith was also named the Big 12 cooffensive Player of the Week for the week of Oct. 1.,Big 12 Newcomer of the Week on Sept. 15 and named to Soccer America's Team of the Week on Oct. 2.
Despite the loss against Bayor, Kansas still remains ranked eighth in the Central Region. Francis and his troops look to build on that ranking this weekend.
"This is a very big weekend for us," Francis said. "It would keep us farther in front of them. We need to play together and as a unit, if we do that we will be successful."
Event showcasing student wrestler

Kansan sports writer.
In baseball, there is the Triple-A league for players who are not ready for a Randy Johnson fast ball. In basketball, there is the newly formed developmental league for players who are not yet NBA caliber. In wrestling, there is the Central States Wrestling league for those not ready for a "Stone Cold Stunner."
The Central States Wrestling league has produced such wrestling stars as Shawn Michaels and Scott Hall. As everyone searches for the next big thing, wrestlers in the Central States Wrestling league are waking up every morning sore and tired with the dreams and hopes that one day, 20,000 people will be cheering their names.
That is what keeps them going.
It is not the average pay of $25 for a match. It is not the separated shoulders, but it is the fans who keep the wrestlers going.
The league will make a stop in Lawrence this weekend, as they will put on a show Saturday night at the National Guard Armory, Iowa and 2nd streets. It will be a homecoming for one of the league's wrestlers.
Mark Ptasnik is a fifth-year senior at the University of Kansas, but when he is not learning, you can find him at the local gym. Just to get to the Central States Wrestling league, Ptasnik has had to take gymnastics classes and attend wrestling school.
Not to mention the three hours he spends working out at night. He first started wrestling in Kansas in 2001 and in August of that year, he was in his first show.
I love it," Ptasnik said. "I just love performing and putting smiles on people's faces. When I was a kid I watched wrestling six nights a week and had posters and everything."
Saturday, Ptasnik will fight in one of three non-title matches. Also, there will be a cruiserweight match for the number one contender; a tag-team match, a hardcore match, where anything goes; and a heavyweight title match.
Ptasnik said the pay depended on the number of people in the crowd. He has earned up to $80 in a night and has also gone a night with no pay at all.
The Central States Wrestling league travels all over the Midwest to states such as Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma and Iowa.
Currently, the league puts on one or two shows a month, but under the direction of Rogers that could change to one or two shows a week according to Ptasnik.
Dave Chapman, the business manager for the league, said the league just got a new owner, Mike Rogers.
"Mike Rogers is a great fit for this league," Chapman said. "He has seen the best and he knows what it takes to get there."
"It is a Sigmund Freud theory that says people have a subconscious death wish," Ptasim said. "That is how I wrestle, like every match is my last one, because you just never know."
To his friends, Ptasnik is known as Mark, but that all changes once he steps in the "squared circle." Thanatos is the name he chose while reading an abnormal psychology textbook he has.

FRIDAY,OCTOBER11,2002
Homecoming history continues to evolve this year
Tradition grown from longstanding KU-MU rivalry
By Nate Karlin
correspondence@kansan.com
Kansan correspondent
Homecoming evokes images of football games, pep rallies and school spirit, but few students and alumni are aware of the origin of the tradition or the reason for its predominant association with football.
The tradition of homecoming, according to Dale Wright, assistant director of Alumni Programs at the University of Missouri, began in 1911 at MU. In order to add some excitement to the annual football game against the University of Kansas, Chester L. Brewer, the Director of Athletics,
invited past graduates to "come home"to Columbia, Mo.
During that year, a spirit rally, parade and more than 9,000 fans packed into Rollins Field (now Stankowski Field) and gave birth to the tradition of homecoming. This day served as a model for the various homecoming celebrations that take place across the nation.
Each year, KU welcomes home its graduating class from 40 years previous to its homecoming celebration. This year, the class of 1962 will return to the festivities and traditions of KU homecoming.
According to Jim Deckert, president of the senior class of 1962, KU's homecoming traditions have "pretty much remained the same, though we had a better football team (back then)."
KU, however, has witnessed several milestone events throughout its homecoming history. Baby Jay hatched from a giant egg brought onto the 50-yard line during the 1971 homecoming game halftime show. KU stopped crowning a homecoming queen in 1970 and the tradition was later replaced by the Ex.C.E.L. program. The program has recognized one male and one female student for achievement since 1991.
Going along with this year's theme of "Traditions Anew in 2002," the KU Alumni Association and the 12-member studentled homecoming committee have visions of changing KU's homecoming by creating new traditions.
homecoming co-director and Wichita junior.
"We said dream as big as you can and we can make it happen," said Genevieve Gordon, KU
The primary new tradition, created by the Alumni Association, is that each Ex.C.E.L. winner will receive a class ring.
Other traditions anew range from the more grandiose traditions of a pep rally and a rescheduled parade to the more simple idea of a tradition of more student involvement and community services projects, and a completely student-run homecoming committee.
Within the past couple of years, the parade was held at 2:30 p.m. on a Friday on Jayhawk Boulevard.
Before that, the parade was held on Massachusetts Street. The spectator turnout was always small because classes were still in session and Lawrence residents were still at work. This year will
be the first time the parade will be held on a Saturday morning. "We're going to slowly make our way to get back on Mass, Street," Gordon said.
Gordon said the general organization of this year's homecoming is more varied. More organizations, in addition to the traditional Greek participants, are getting involved and displaying banners, including scholarship and residence halls and various on-campus political groups such as the KU Greens and the Young Democrats.
("More involvement) lets more people know that it's homecoming week," Emile Boesen, Des Moines, Iowa, senior said. "Before the past two years, you didn't even know it was Homecoming week."
More students this year are also participating in the faj Hawk
Spirit Sing, a competition started last year to get participating organizations to rally the "Late Night With Roy Williams" crowd with a song. Eighteen organizations signed up this year.
This year's homecoming is also taking on new aspects of community service including a canned food drive and the Jog for Jubilee, a 5K run that supported the Jubilee Café.
"I think that is one thing homecoming has missed out on—not having community service, volunteerism," Gordon said.
The homecoming committee hopes that this year will set a precedent for future homecomings at KU.
"I think homecoming is back on a rise on this campus," Gordon said.
All organizations welcome to take part in homecoming

Apart from an island nation tasty food and weddings, the term 'greek' has been used to identify particular student organizations among college campuses.
Unofficially, the term has also been used in describing homecoming week at the University of Kansas.
Matt French. Leawood junior and event co-director said the myth that fraternities and sororites run homecoming is untrue.
"It's predominately greeks that participate in homecoming, but there are other organizations that participate as well," she
There are many groups other than fraternity and sorority houses involved in homecoming, said Barbara Berry, vicepresident for public relations for the Panhellenic Association.
said. "Homecoming is not just a greek thing."
Non-greek groups participating in homecoming include KU Young Democrats, KU Greens, Alternative Breaks, SUA, KU Recreation services, Womyn's Empowerment Action Coalition, Delta Force, Black Student Union, Asian American Student Union, Hashinger Hall, Lewis Hall, HALO and the All-scholarship Hall Council.
However, fraternities and sororites do play a part in Homecoming Week.
"It's always been known as a big greek event," said Jake Albers, Lawrence senior and Pi Kappa Phi president.
Albers said some students believed it was because of the fraternities and sororities' presence that homecoming has gotten bad press.
"Most people have a predetermined image of fraternity/sorority life, and that reflects how they
perceive homecoming," he said.
Keena Tarrant, Topeka sophomore and organizer for the Lewis Hall homecoming activities, said the presence of fraternities and sororites in homecoming didn't affect her decision to participate.
"The residents wanted to do fun stuff, a lot of people wanted to get involved," she said.
Will Nether, Topeka sophomore and organizer for the Stephenson Scholarship Hall float, said he thought homecoming was designed for the fraternities and sororites, but that his hall was still building a float.
Bob McKenney, program assistant for fraternity and sorority life, said the entire campus community was participating in homecoming festivities.
"From the can construction to the pep rally, there are activities for everyone," he said.

"We laid out a vision for the kind of parade we wanted." Hudson said. "We brainstormed a huge, beautiful, ticker tape parade and figured we needed to change the day."
The parade will begin tomorrow at 10:30 a.m. at the Kansas Union and progress to the Chi Omega fountain.
This year, the annual homecoming parade will not take place on the traditional Friday afternoon, but instead will be tomorrow morning. The theme, "Traditions Anew in 2002: A Hawk of a Good Time" will be incorporated into the parade.
Students expecting to skip class today for the homecoming parade will have to come up with a better excuse.
Parade co-chairs Elissa Hudson, Pittsburg junior, and Tyler Waldorf, Leawood sophomore, decided in February to change the parade date with the hopes that it would be bigger than years past.
"I missed a class last year to go to the parade," Jessica Schickler, Des Moines, Iowa, junior said. "I think the change is great because there will be more student support on Saturday."
Changing the day of the parade was not easy for the co-chairs. John Mullins, assistant director of public safety, had to approve the usage of Jayhawk Boulevard, which is open to the public on the weekends.
"A lot of work went in with the parade," Waldorf said. "It was more of a hurdle for Elissa and I because no one had seen a Satur-
Waldorf said the change was made with alumni, faculty, students and Lawrence residents in mind.
The planners hope to have more residents and alumni attend the parade.
"Our goal is that hopefully one day the parade will be so big that it will be on Mass. street," Waldorf said. "Other schools have huge homecomings, and we want KU to have a homecoming that big."
Former KU football coach Don Fambrough, who coached from 1971 to 1974 and 1979 to 1982, will be honored as the grand marshal of the homecoming parade.

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN = 3B
Hard work,hours of planning represented in parade floats

Kansan correspondent
Working until the sun goes down, organizations have spent the past week and a half pumping, painting and constructing floats.
Since the middle of September members of greek organizations, scholarship halls, the Asian American Student Union and Hispanic American Leadership Organization have thought of ideas, worked on sketches and attended safety meetings in order to participate in the Homecoming parade.
on a float. Pi Kappa Phil fraternity and Kappa Alpha Theta sorority decided to be partners as early as last semester. Other houses serenaded the sorority of their choice or voted at chapter and asked.
The first step for most greek organizations was to find a fellow fraternity or sorority to work with
2002: A Hawk of a Good Time."
"We went through the formal process of serenading Gamma Phi Beta," said Marty McSorley, Phi Kappa Theta fraternity member and St. Louis junior. "About 20 to 30 guys went over there and sang 'Wonderful Tonight' by Eric Clapton along with a melody of 'What a Girl Wants' by Christina Aguilera, 'Girls' by Beastie Boys and 'Oops I Did it Again' by Britney Spears."
The next step was thinking of an idea and design to relate to the theme, "Traditions Anew for
Groups got their ideas in different ways. One person would come up with a bright idea or a few of the artistic minds would combine their sketches together. For Theta Chi fraternity and Pi Beta Phi sorority it was a joint effort of a Homecoming committee incorporating everyone's thoughts.
"We asked other members in both houses to get a variety of opinions and just kept in mind other's ideas when we finally decided," said Kristi Varnthouse, Pi Beta Phi sorority member and Leawood sophomore
John Nowak/Kansan
In order to get first prize,
groups spent $700 to $2,000.
Greek organizations obtained
their spending money from alumni, chapter dues and donations. The money goes mainly to pomps, which provide the color for the float along with a tent and trailer.
Seth Norton, Lenexa junior, molds chicken wire to form the figure of a Buffalo. Norton and fellow members of Sigma Chi fraternity have worked with Chi Omega sorority to build a float for Saturday's homecoming parade.
"That is usually half of our budget," said David Hievsch, Delta Upsilon member and Wichita senior.
The most time consuming part of the float is the actual building process. On average 30 to 100 hours is spent on this. Every night this week, groups have worked from 6 p.m. to midnight to make sure all aspects come together.
"We have worked on it a lot because we have traditions to uphold since we have gotten first for the past six or seven years,"
said Jon McGinnis, Triangle member and Collinsville, Ill. "I don't want to break that."
Members of the Asian American Student Union and Hispanic American Leadership Organization also worked together on a float. However, they spend fewer days and money working on the float.
"We are not worried about getting first, but just wanted to do different homecoming activities with other multicultural groups," John Tran, Overland Park junior.
The parade starts tomorrow at 10:30 a.m. at the Kansas Union and finishes at the Chi Omega Fountain.
Lawrence rooms hard to find during homecoming
—Edited by Chris Wintering
By Marissa Stephenson correspondence@kansan.com Kansan correspondent
A note to this weekend's crowd of alumni and parents: Bring your KU spirit, but don't forget your tents. Those returning for the homecoming festivities will find that when it comes to securing a place to stay, there isn't little room in town.
Hotel managers across Lawrence said this weekend's annual gridiron fest, along with Parents Weekend and graduation, were the three biggest draws of the year.
Mark Travers, desk clerk at the Best Western Hotel, said the hotel had been booked for two months.
"I tell the people that call in
now to try Topeka or Ottawa, someplace close so they can commute," he said.
"When it comes to the 'Big Three,' we're always booked," said Ryan Kehr, assistant front office manager at the Eldridge Hotel. "Our rooms start to go months in advance."
For those who want to be assured a room, the Eldridge Hotel offers a little something extra — a year-in-advance waiting list.
"The Sunday following home-coming, we begin taking names for next year's weekend. As soon as we know the official dates we start to book the waiting list," Kehr said.
The price for Lawrence hotels ranges from $73 for a room at the Super 8 Motel to $199 at the
Eldridge. The answers were noticeably varied as to whether prices go up for big event weekends like homecoming.
"We do not raise our rates for big weekends," said Bruce Phan, front desk manager at the Holiday Inn. "What we do is stick to the highest published rate, no discounts."
Cale Coke, supervisor at the Ramada Inn, also emphasized that there was no increase in rates during busy weekends.
"Regardless of the demand, we won't raise our rates, whether the weekend is sold out or not. Actually, there are times where we will lower the rate of a room to sell it."
Jennifer Larson, general manager of the Super 8 Motel, disagreed. She said the hotel did
raise prices for homecoming weekend.
"We don't charge god-awful prices but the rate is above the normal charge," Larson said. "After all, it's weekends like this that help to get us through the slow weekends when nothing is going on in Lawrence."
Kehr also said that the rates for his hotel increased because of the busier weekend. "Yes, prices go up. It's just what happens when so many people want a room," he said.
Not everyone is booked for the upcoming weekend. Those still looking for a last minute reservation can find rooms at the Days Inn, Bismarck Inn, and Ramada Hotel.
With hotel rooms scarce, there
is always the possibility for parents and alumni to stay with a KU student.
"My aunt spent two years at KU and is coming up for homecoming to stay with me at Towers," said Stephanie Benedict, Lenexa junior. "She's also bringing up her daughter — we're going to show her around town and the campus."
Others said homecoming presented a great opportunity for alums to reminisce on past KU experiences while introducing a younger generation to the possibility of attending the university.
"My sister might come up for the game and stop by my place at McCollum," said Ashley Stubblefield, Liberty freshman. "My parents aren't coming though, there's
just not that much of a draw."
Matt Gabel. Leavenworth sophomore, isn't sure if he'll be present for homecoming weekend, much less his parents.
"My Mom's an alum and she cares about the game less than I do, so she won't be attending," Gabel said.
Casey Schuetz, Wichita junior, said her parents already came up recently for Parents Weekend, so they wouldn't be attending the homecoming game. When asked where her parents stayed for Parents Weekend, Schuetz laughed.
"They had to go to the Doubletree in Kansas City. Everything here had been booked since the summer," Schuetz said.

First 5K run kicks off events, raises money for Jubilee Café
KU HOMECOMING
Jog for Jubilee

Early Sunday morning, while most students were still under the covers, more than 20 people participated in the first Homecoming 5K Run.
The race started at 8 a.m. at the Burge Union parking lot, with the course making a loop through campus before doubling back to the Burge. These men and women ran not just to burn calories or get a cool T-shirt, but for a different cause—the Jubilee Café.
The 5K race is one of many new homecoming events striving to become a KU tradition. The event raised more than $200 for the Cafe.
The Cafe is an ecumenical campus and community outreach program sponsored by Canterbury House, the Episcopal Campus Ministry of the University of Kansas. It has served homeless and needy residents of the Lawrence area since 1994.
Mark Ruder, Homecoming steering Committee Community Events and Service Chair, said the event served its purpose.
"By bringing these new events,
especially ones like the 5K run that benefits the community, we make homecoming bigger and better," he said.
The winners of the inaugural race were Dave Meall, Minneapolis, Kan., senior in the men's division with a time of 19:19, and Jennifer Hull, Lawrence junior, who took the women's title with a time of 23 minutes.
Meall, a Jubilee Café volunteer, said he thought the 5K run would make a great kickoff to homecoming every year.
Students can donate time by going to the fellowship hall of the First United Methodist Church, 946 Vermont St.
Those interested in volunteering should enter through the double glass doors on the southern side of the church between 6 and 9 a.m. on Tuesday and Friday mornings. Financial donations can be sent by check to the following address:

Alumni reunion to coincide with homecoming activities
Edited by Ryan Malashock and Nicole Roché

correspondence@kansan.com
Kansan correspondent
As stated in the University of Kansas mission statement, the homecoming celebrations that took place this week should "welcome home" students and alumni to experience the traditions, pride and spirit created in more than 135 years of existence.
The graduating class of 1962 will feel especially welcome while attending a 40th year anniversary reunion dinner at 6:30 tonight at the Adams Alumni Center.
John and Susan Kost, graduating class of 1962, were on a list of local alums from '62 who were invited to be on the planning committee. The entire dinner was planned in two meetings, including planning a cocktail hour, choosing a menu for dinner, guest speakers and decorations, and deciding on what special
memento would be given as a gift.
Others involved in planning the dinner were Jeanette and Tom Armstrong, Tom and Virginia Brown, Kay and Phil Carr and Carol Ott Kimmich.
Emceeing for the night will be Jim Deckert, class president of '62 who now resides in Kansas City. Mo.
Former Dean of Women, Emily Taylor, will also be attending. She was at the forefront of woman's activism in the '60s and established the women's studies program and a daycare center on campus.
Susan Kost said most of her classmates were still working, tied up with care of aging parents or enjoying grandchildren and might not be able to attend.
"We were told that the 40th reunion is not well attended because we are too young," Kost said. "We live within driving distance of the Hill, but for those on
the coasts it is a long way to come when your life is still so busy."
Alumni were welcomed to participate in all activities during homecoming week. A group of tickets for the football game will also be available at the dinner so the class of 1962 can sit together.
Kost said during the dinner, alumni would remember stories of the Sarge, the campus dog, places like the Dine-a-Mite, the campus HideAway, the Stables and the TeePee. Kost said she would also remember when the senior women got keys to their living quarters for the first time in the history of the University. Before then women had early curtows
Most of all, Kost is looking forward to catching up with fellow layhawks.
"We are looking forward to seeing who attends and if we remember each other," she said.

Students help plan events
Committee seeks applicants for 2003
By DaniLitt
By Dain Litt correspondence@kansan.com Kansan correspondent
Students interested in planning homecoming activities will find it as easy as filling out a simple application.
"I got involved because I thought it would be a good experience and lots of fun. I also thought it was a good way to give back to the University of Kansas," Matt French, Leawood junior, said.
French was also a committee member his sophomore year. This year, he is the co-director of the 12-person student-organized committee that is the heart of homecoming.
In order to be on the committee, students must go through an application process and be chosen by the advisory board and
the committee's directors. This year's advisory board consisted of Richard Johnson, dean of students; Chanda Dunbar, program advisor for Student Union Activities; and Jennifer Alderdice, Student Alumni Association advisor.
Applicants are not told of the competition, but French remembers being one of more than 30 applicants for this year's homecoming committee.
Topeka freshman Tricia Randall said that she did not know how to get involved with planning homecoming.
"All I knew was the stuff that they told us at our sorority meetings," Randall said. "I found out that we were participating in the activities, but not how to plan anything."
French said he loved his experience on the committee and planned on being involved again next year.

Can'struction helps needy represents homecoming

Six thousand cans decorated Wescoe Beach Wednesday, beating last year's total of 2,000 cans in the second annual Jayhawk Can'struction contest.
The Jayhawk Can'struction was one of 50 competitions in the United States this year supported by Can'struction, Inc., a nonprofit company with the Society of Design Administration.
Genevieve Gordon, Homecoming committee co-chairwoman, said students who participated in the Can'struction met the goals of the company's ideals, to "provide an artistic, creative endeavor in which every nation on earth can join together to participate regardless of national, political, racial or religious ideologies," and to contribute to the spirit of homecoming.
"It is a physical way to represent homecoming, and it is one way to give back to the community," she said.
Thirteen organizations created sculptures on Wescoe Beach from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., and each had its own reason for doing the project.
"This is our first year participating, and we wanted to be seen a little bit more on campus," John Tran, Overland Park junior and Asian American Student Union member, said.
Fritz Heffinger, Wheaton, Ill., sophomore and Delta Chi fraternity member, said Delta Chi and Zeta Tau Alpha sorority created a fountain with flowing water.
"We wanted to be different," Heffinger said. "For one of our annual parties we built a fountain and a pool like this."
The projects had to be related to the KU tradition. Finished products included a football stadium, a March Madness bracket and the Campanile.
The participants were judged in three categories: adherence to
this year's theme, expression of idea and originality of idea. Organizations needed to find cans and other items that local food banks could use and they needed to have enough cans to complete the art work.
Some groups received contributions from supermarkets and stores. The winners of the contest, Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity and Delta Gamma sorority, received donations from Kmart, Wal-Mart, Food 4 Less and HyVee for their Campanile sculpture. Groups that did not receive help spent hundreds of dollars on cans.
Matthew French, Kansas City,
Kan., junior and Homecoming steering committee co-chairman, said he thought the homecoming committee's goals for Can'tstruc-tion had been met.
"There was just better involvement," he said. "They saw what was done last year and just started to do better."
When the event ended Wednesday afternoon, students loaded Pelanthe Community Resource Center's trucks with the cans. The Resource Center provides meals to families throughout the Lawrence community.

Award recognizes student excellence Murals showcase enthusiasm, talent
Two students will be receiving Ex.C.E.L award
By Kate Sullivan
correspondence@kansan.com
Kansan correspondent
Eight students will be crossing their fingers tonight in anticipation of tomorrow's Homecoming game, when the winners of the 11th annual Excellence in Community, Education and Leadership (Ex.C.E.L.) Award will be announced.
Student Union Activities and the Board of Class Officers sponsor the award, given to one male and one female on the basis of academic scholarship, leadership and involvement in the University of Kansas community.
This year's group of finalists, two men and six women, are picked by a selection committee consisting of University of Kansas students, faculty, staff and administration.
"The award is often considered one of the most prestigious awards given in the fall semester and the caliber of this year's candidates has really proved that that's the case," said Leslie Heusted, program director for SUA and adviser to the Ex.C.E.L. selection committee.
Heusted said the significance of the award and the excellence of its candidates made homecoming an appropriate time to showcase it.
Though the award is given to both a male and a female during the game, it should not considered the same as winners of a modern homecoming king and queen.
Laura Dakhil, Ex.C.E.L. chair on the Homecoming committee, said the value in giving the award over having a homecoming royalty is that winners must be completely well-rounded, not just popular.
"The beauty of the award is that it's so encompassing," she said.
"Year to year, the finalists have proven to be involved in totally different things, look totally different and have totally different interests than years past."
The winners, who will be announced between the first and second quarters of the Homecoming game, receive a $500 scholarship and will be responsible for coordinating the Blueprints Leadership Conference, which is put on in the spring with' the goal of developing the leadership skills of emerging leaders at the University. Ex.C.E.L. winners are chosen to direct this, Dakhil said, because they are the ideal role models for leaders on campus.
Maggie Mason, Elmira, Ont., Canada, junior and finalist for the Ex.C.E.L. award, said student leadership was crucial to the welfare of the University and of student life.
"What student leaders do for the school is so impressive," she said. "Students run the campus

With the flash of bright fall foliage emerges a homecoming tradition just as striking in color — the annual mural contest.
Beginning its second year in the lineup of homecoming activities, students utilize the mural contest as a way to both illustrate their creativity and show pride in the University.
Participants in the contest submitted sketches of their mural designs and eight finalist groups were selected. Those finalists were each given a 6- by 6-foot canvas on which to paint their murals. And today, each canvas will be displayed for evaluation by a group of judges.
Anna Clovis, the daily events chair on the homecoming committee, said students who were selected as finalists possessed both great artistic ability and creativity, and had presented a unique interpretation of this year's theme. Judging of the final
murals will follow a similar format, with an emphasis on expression, originality and adherence to the theme. The winners of the contest will be awarded points that contribute to their overall homecoming score.
According to Clovis, Fairfax, Okla., junior, mural painting is unique to the University of Kansas and includes both groups and individuals.
"Our goal for daily events is to get as many students involved, regardless of organizational affiliation. The murals are artistic displays of school spirit — I don't know of many other universities that offer such an event," she said.
Completed murals are to be turned in between 12 and 2 p.m. today, with the judging taking place at 4 p.m. The displays can be viewed this afternoon at the Kansas Union and also they will be hung off the west side of the Union parking garage for the Homecoming football game.
Homecoming royalty outdated tradition
By Erica Wolfe
—Edited by Andrew Vaupel
correspondence@kansan.com
Kansan correspondent
Students shouldn't expect a queen to be crowned at tomorrow's homecoming game; royalty appointment is a tradition of the past at the University of Kansas.
The last homecoming queen at the University was in 1969, after disputes about whether a black queen could be crowned alongside the traditional queen at halftime of the football game.
When the Black Student Union's request was denied, questions arose as to whether one or even a few queens could truly represent such a large student
body.
In 1970 the homecoming committee voted to bring an end to the queen contest.
"It seems inappropriate in a multicultural environment such as a university to select one or a group of young women to represent that community," according to a statement from the 1970 homecoming committee.
To some students, homecoming isn't the same without a queen.
Joan Pinnell, Wichita freshman, said many students agreed with the decision of the homecoming committee because of the diversity of KU.
"It's a cute idea, but it's a high school thing, and I don't think one girl could represent a whole college," Pinnell said.
"The girls look forward to it, it's a high school pastime and I think it increases moral and support for homecoming," said Adam McLeod, Dallas freshman.
Since the cut of the queen, for 20 years there were no awards given to students during homecoming.
The Ex.C.E.L. award began in 1991 and is awarded to male and female students who represent academic high achievement and character.
"Ex.C.E.L. is a good idea, it's not just a popularity contest, it honors hard-working students," Lindsay Laurila, Edina, Minn., freshman said.
"It seems inappropriate in a multicultural environment such as a university to select one or a group of young women to represent that community."

"Radical cheerleaders" Sally Pueelo, Lawrence resident, Kristina R. Kuzmich, Overland Park senior, and Lea B. Carland, Lawrence senior, practice a chant for Saturday's homecoming parade. The group, which held its first rehearsal Sunday at South Park, will participate in the parade to raise awareness about violence.
Group cheers in protest of violence
by Zack Hemenway
correspondence@kansan.com
Kansan correspondent
The KU cheerleading squad likely prepared for this weekend's homecoming festivities by rehearsing various tumbling moves, lifts and cheers to support the football team. At South Park, Massachusetts and 12th streets, Sunday night, an entirely different kind of cheerleading practice was going on.
"Stop Hate, Stop Rape, K-U! Then it's 1-2-3, clap clap, 1-2-3, clap clap." a student leading the cheer told the group.
One girl stops to question a particular move. "Can cheerleaders do that?" she asked.
The leader's response was immediate.
"Radical cheerleaders can," she said.
Agroup of students, comprised mostly of members of the Womyn's Empowerment Action Coalition (WEAC), plans to march in tomorrow's homecoming parade as "Radical Cheerleaders" demonstrating in opposition to violence against women.
The concept of "Radical Cheerleading" was started in Philadelphia and has spread to college campuses throughout the county, said Beth Peterson, Kansas City, Mo., senior and WEAC member.
"They were trying to find a new, fun and exciting way to protest things," she said. "They were able to use something that traditionally wasn't open to a wide variety of people, especially people like ourselves who have a particular message."
The participants had to make some adjustments before they were ready for the parade.
"Most of us weren't cheerleaders in high school or even junior high, so we have to get over this whole yelling thing," Laura Wade, Wichita sophomore, said.
The organizers of the demonstration decided the parade would be a more effective forum than a campus display.
"There's a potential to reach a wide variety of people that may
not typically be interested in the kinds of things we're talking about." Peterson said.
"All parade participants needed to adhere to the theme, and represent the University in a positive manner," said Elissa Hudson, Pittsburg junior and parade cochair.
Like the fraternities, sororites and other groups involved in the parade, the demonstrators were subjected to close scrutiny by the homecoming committee before being allowed to participate. Wichita graduate student Luke Middleton represented the group at a committee meeting, where he had to submit their proposed chants and other plans.
Members of the group created chants, and improvised accompanying cadences and physical actions at practices. Each chant had to conform in some way to the homecoming theme, "Traditions Anew in 2002: A Hawk of a Good Time."
All the chants touch on the theme to a certain extent, with most incorporating a healthy
"I think if more people understood that it was a real problem, then maybe things would have a chance to change."
change."
Luke Middleton Wichita graduate student
dose of sarcasm. Shouts of, "1-2 3-4, leave your aggression at the door/5-6-7-8, KU tradition is super-great!" could be heard throughout the park.
The demonstration's organizers said their actions would be a good contrast with what they referred to as the traditional "go team go" attitude of homecoming weekend.
"We want to raise the awareness of the prevalence of violence against women," Middleton said. "I think if more people understood that it was a real problem, then maybe things would have a chance to change."

Peprally draws a crowd
By Lindsey Ramsey

Kansan correspondent
Memorial Stadium was filled with students last night as the University of Kansas' first-ever Homecoming pep rally kicked off.
"We all came with our fraternity, and it seemed like a good way to get involved with homecoming," Kit Leary, Olathe freshman, said.
To start the rally, football coach Mark Mangino had some inspirational words for the student body
about tomorrow's game.
"We will continue to try and fight to the very last second of each and every game," Mangino told the student body.
The pep rally provided students with the chance to play games such as duck pond, dart toss, beanbag toss, ping-pong
"It was good to hear Mangino talk because as a freshman, that was the first time I'd ever heard him talk, and having the band and the cheerleaders there everyone really got in the spirit of things," Ross Holst, Fairway freshman, said.
throw and more.
"I didn't know what to expect. This was unlike any pep rally I'd ever been to. I had never been to one that had so many fun games and stuff," said Dana Goon, Eden Prairie, Minn., freshman.
The special events committee for homecoming was in charge of making the pep rally as unique and exciting by providing attractions like a Velcro wall and a moonwalk.
"We are hoping that it will be more like a small town carnival,"

Kansan correspondent
Some musically gifted students will have the chance to sing their stuff at tonight's Late Night with Roy Williams.
The Spirit Sing contest, a part of Homecoming 2002, is a competition to create an original song that deals with the homecoming theme.
This is the second year of the Spirit Sing. According to the KU Homecoming 2002 Web
site, each of the five organizations singing tonight will be given three to five minutes for their songs. The Homecoming theme, "Traditions Anew in 2002:A Hawk of Good Time," has to be incorporated into each song.
Emilie Boesen, Clive, Iowa junior and Spirit Sing coordinator, said the songs would be judged on their incorporation of the homecoming theme and alma mater, and how creative the song is.
There have been some changes made from last year. Instead of the organizations turning in a tape to the committee, the applicants were going to audition live. Boesen said.
and the appearance of the group.
Other criteria include sound
In the past, groups had to audition in order to perform. Since only five groups applied, no auditions were held because there was time for eight to perform.

"Even though a lot of the activities were aimed at pleasing the alumni and the older crowd, we as students were still interested and involved," says Klayder. "Now, as a faculty member I do not buildmy schedule around homecoming."
Matt French, co-director for Homecoming 2002, said the key to a successful Homecoming week was providing students with an avenue through which they could become involved.
"I think that given the opportunity, the majority of students out there would like to participate," French, Leawood sophomore, said. "This year we have made a number of improvements in the way Homecoming week is run so that more students can take part in the activities."
For some students, Hornecorning weekend means watching Real World reruns and vegging—not participating in spirit-filled activities.
Among the changes is a shift in the planning committee for homecoming. This year is the first year

Mary Klayder, professor of English and former KU student, said it wasn't always that way. She said she remembered a time in the late 1960s when fraternities and sororites elaborately decorated their houses, free concerts were offered and a homecoming king and queen were announced. While Klayder was not fond of every tradition associated with homecoming at that time, she said at least there were set traditions.
With all of the additions to the homecoming agenda for 2002, this year could mark a distinct turnaround in KU traditions.
"Homecoming really does not affect my life either way, positively or negatively." Brad Thies, Overland Park sophomore, said. "It's just not a big deal to me or any of my friends."
John Allen, Overland Park senior, said he was ready to have a great homecoming.
"I don't think the student body as a whole needs to wait for the football team to improve before we enjoy Homecoming week," he said. "We have the opportunity to make this an awesome time right now."
This year the parade will take place tomorrow, when spectators will see 18 entries, up eight from last year. Later on that evening the football team will try for their first Big 12 win of the season when they face a Colorado squad fresh off a convincing win against Kansas State.
Homecoming week has been designed by students. A group of 12 students, headed by French and Genevieve Gordon, Wichita senior and fellow co-director, are striving to reverse the general trend of lack of interest on campus.
Edited by Jessica Hood
"This year is definitely going to be different from those in the recent past," French said. "KU has a new football program with the arrival of coach Mangino and as a result a new attitude towards homecoming."
French said this year's slogan "Traditions Anew in 2002: A Hawk of a Good Time," embodied everything the committee was attempting to accomplish.
"Our main goal is to establish long-lasting KU homecoming traditions and inspire school spirit that will carry on from year to year." French said. "We want to make Homecoming week an important and memorable time for everyone connected to KU students, teachers, alumni, and the Lawrence community."

'Hawks looking for homecoming win over Buffaloes
By John Domoney jdomoney@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter

Chris Burket/Kansan
Senior linehacker Leo Fienne and sophomore safety Johnny McCoy dive for a tackle against Bowling Green
After opening with four of its first six games on the road, the Kansas football team now will close the season with four of its last six games at home.
This stretch begins at 1 p.m. tomorrow as Kansas will host the University of Colorado for homecoming at Memorial Stadium.
Kansas (2-4) enters the contest looking to improve upon its 0-2 Big 12 Conference record after the season-opening loss at Iowa State and last Saturday's defeat at Baylor.
While the Jayhawks are looking for their first conference victory, the Buffaloes are riding a high that came with Colorado's 35-31 defeat of then 13th ranked Kansas State last Saturday in Boulder, Colo.
In the victory, Colorado (3-2) tormented the previously unbeaten Kansas State with a big play offense led by quarterback Robert Hodge.
Hodge, who replaced Craig Ochs earlier in the season, had 289 yards passing and three touchdowns against Kansas State.
Kansas coach Mark Mangino said the big play capability of Colorado was a concern for a Kansas defense that has allowed at least 30 points in five of its first six games.
"They can make big plays, there's no question," Mangino said. "But we can't be worried about what they might do. We have to prepare for the things that
they do the very best."
What Colorado does best is run the football. Buffaloes running back Chris Brown is averaging a Big 12 best 135.6 yards per game, and he has eight touchdowns.
Mangino said he was worried that Colorado's running game combined with the emergence of Hodges at quarterback was reminiscent of last year's Colorado
team that defeated Nebraska and Texas on its way to winning the Big 12 championship.
"Colorado is starting to get in sync like they did last season," Mangino said. "They got off to a little bit of a slow start and are starting to hit their stride."
Kansas is also starting to click on offense led by junior quarterback Bill Whittimore who has
"Kansas has been a difficult place to play for us, and for some reason I can't really put my finger on it."
Gary Barnett
Colorado football coach
totaled 720 yards in total offense and has been responsible for eight touchdowns in the last two games against Tulsa and Baylor.
To complement Whittemore, running backs freshman Clark Green and junior Reggie Duncan will try to improve Kansas' running attack.
Mangino said Duncan, who made only his second start of the season against Baylor Saturday would compete with Green for the number of snaps each will play against Colorado.
"We'll give them both reps in the beginning of the game and if someone just has a feel for what we're doing and the way the defense is playing it, we'll go with them," Mangino said. "If neither one does, then we'll continue to look for it. And if they're both hot,
then we'll give them both chances by starting one off, give him a rest and get the other guy in."
Homecoming has been kind to Kansas as the Jayhawks have won 10 of their last 12 homecoming games. Kansas also has defeated Colorado the last two times it has visited Lawrence, in 1998 and 2000.
Colorado coach Gary Barnett knows his team must not look past Kansas especially after what has happened to Colorado during the past two trips to Memorial Stadium.
"Kansas has been a difficult place to play for us, and for some reason I can't really put my finger on it," Barnett said.
Mangino, however, isn't relying on recent history to help his team tomorrow, but he did say that he has taken a new approach by shortening practice this week in order to prepare the Jayhawks.
"We just feel like we needed to give our kids an opportunity to recover a little bit in terms of their legs and just being nice and fresh for Saturday's game," Mangino said.

Buffaloes lost in 2000 homecoming
By Doyle Murphy
dmurphy@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
They handled Kansas State last weekend, and now Colorado will try to make it a wheat state sweep when they play Kansas at 1 p.m. Saturday. But if the Buffalooes' recent performances against the Jayhawks are any indication, that will not be an easy task.
Last year in Boulder, Colo.,
the Jayhawks lead the Buffaloes
13-10 at halftime, before Colorado scored two fourth quarter
touchdowns and won 27-16. Then-freshman Johnny Beck scored 10 points on three field goals and an extra point. He also kicked the second-longest field goal in Kansas history with a 59-yard kick at the end of the second quarter.
If the Jayhawks want to hand the Buffaloes another homecoming loss, they'll need another strong defensive performance on Saturday.
When Colorado came to Lawrence for Kansas' homecoming two years ago, the Jayhawks fared even better. A touchdown by then freshman running back Reggie Duncan with 8:47 left in the game sealed at 23-15 for a Kansas victory. The Jayhawk defense held Colorado to 90 yards rushing on 32 carries.
Against Kansas State. Colorado rushed for 194 yards and passed 289 yards against a tough Wildcat defense.
Kansas coach Mark Mangino knows all about the Colorado offense.
"Colorado's going to come in here, and they're going to run the football," he told reporters. "But don't be fooled, they can throw the ball too. We're going to just keep working hard to improve our run defense."
The Colorado offense continues to roll, even though it has lost its starting quarterback. Junior Craig Ochs
announced through a press release that he was leaving the team after sustaining a head injury on Sept. 7 during a game against San Diego State University.
Mangino said Ochs' replacement, senior Robert Hodge, was more than capable of leading the Buffaloes.
"The quarterback that they're using, Robert Hodge, is a guy that fits what they're doing." Mangino said. "You can tell he's a smart, young guy, he understands what they're trying to do and he's executing their offense really well at this point in time."

Recruitment violations plague Buffs
BOULDER, Colo. — The NCAA punished the Colorado football team because of recruiting violations.
The Associated Press
Colorado was not banned from television or bowl appearances, but it must reduce the number of scholarships it offers from 25 to 20 in either the 2003-04 or 2004-05 academic year.
The school voluntarily reduced the number of expensepaid visits by recruits to its campus to 51 this academic year. It will also be limited to 51 visits next year, down from the normally allowed 56.
And it didn't spare former coach Rick Neuheisel, either.
The team was placed on two years' probation, and Colorado had its scholarships cut Tuesday. Because most of the violations occurred under Neuheisel, now the coach at Washington, he was barred from off-campus recruiting at that school until May 31
In addition, the number of
The football program was accused of 53 rules violations, 51 when Neuheisel was Colorado's coach from 1995-98. Many of the infractions involved improper contact with recruits.
coaches who can recruit off-campus at any one time must be reduced from seven to six through July 31.
"I want to stress that at no time did I intend to break NCAA regulations, and I never suggested to my staff we operate outside those rules," Neuheisel said in a statement. "I never deceived anyone, nor was I dishonest.
"While being creative in approach, I felt that I was operating within the letter of those rules. It was my mistake to make those judgments without consulting the proper sources at my disposal as a head coach."
The NCAA's infractions committee ruled that Colorado didn't properly monitor its football staff.
"This was a serious case in which a football coaching staff, led by the former head football
coach, in a calculated attempt to gain a recruiting advantage, pushed beyond the permissible bounds of legislation, resulting in a pattern of recruiting violations," the committee's ruling said.
During a 12-hour hearing in August, Neuheisel told the committee he and his staff had accidental encounters with prospects on high school campuses called "bumping"and that Colorado did not gain a recruiting advantage as a result.
However, committee chairman Tom Yeager noted that of the 26 prospective athletes involved, seven eventually enrolled at Colorado.
Other alleged violations included letting recruits keep apparel, and excessive compensation to recruits ranging from $3.20 to $36.76.
Neuheisel said he believed the NCAA used this case to send a message about inadvertent contacts between coaches and recruits.
"The committee's obvious message is that these bumps should no longer be a part of the
Gary Barnett, Neuheisel's successor at Colorado, argued before the committee that any penalties should follow Neuheisel.
college football culture," he said.
But the committee ruled that both Colorado and Neuheisel were at fault.
"There are consequences both for the institution that benefitted by these recruiting violations as well as a consequence for the coach who was involved in the majority of the violations," Yeager said.
And Yeager noted that Neuheisel's penalty was more than a slap on the wrist.
"When the head coach of any sport is restricted in the off-campus recruiting process, that is a significant restriction in recruiting," he said.
Colorado athletic director Dick Tharp said the university "takes full responsibility" because it hired Neuheisel and his staff.
"Nobody wants to be on probation," he said. "This is serious business."
Colorado takes toll on Kansas State, Snyder
The Associated Press
MANHATTAN — Kansas State coach Bill Snyder needed only one sentence to make his point.
When asked at his weekly news conference Tuesday about the team's disappointing secondary play against Colorado, Snyder jokingly said he'd rather talk about his birthday on Monday.
Point well taken. The Wildcats gave up two big pass plays and one running play that could have been stopped by free safety James McGill in a last weekend's 35-31 loss to Colorado. In all, Colorado racked up 483 yards of offense and used the big play to exploit Kansas State's secondary.
"We weren't real good for a seg"
ment of the game," Snyder said. "They had 291 yards on four plays. We were not very good on those four snaps. For a substantial amount of the time, we were decent. But we have to get some things ironed out."
It may not get any easier for the Wildcats, who could play without starting free safety Bobby Walker. This week they'll have to stop one of the Big 12's leading wide receivers, Oklahoma State's Rashaun Woods.
Woods leads the conference with 599 receiving yards. His 38 receptions include five for touchdowns and he averages 15.8 yards per catch.
"I get a chance to see how good I really am," said Kansas State
cornerback Terence Newman, who Colorado virtually avoided, opting to pick on the other corners. "I haven't been really tested. Rashaun Woods is a playmaker."
Colorado didn't have a receiver with statistics even comparable to Woods, but still fooled the Wildcats with play-action passes. On Colorado's first possession, quarterback Robert Hodge threw a 41-yard play-action pass to Derek McCoy that set up a 1-yard touchdown by Chris Brown.
On their next possession, Hodge threw a 71-yard scoring pass to freshman tailback Brian Calhoun.
Later in the first, Jeremy Bloom burned cornerback Randy Jordan for a 94-yard scoring play.
"Giving up big plays is not
acceptable," defensive coordinator Bobby Elliot said. "But I'm very optimistic that we will once again be a good defensive secondary. Defensive backs are like tailgunners. You're going to get shot at and you're going to get hit."
Nevertheless, Newman and the other cornerbacks took the performance hard. They held a meeting on Monday to ensure that they stay focused.
"People need to pay attention to what they're doing and stop going through the motions." Newman said. "We feel like we let the offense down and we know we're going to get negativity. People are going to say that secondary is the weak link. But everyone's ready to get back after it."

'Kick the Kansan' contest kicks Kansan's staffer's confidence
It was bound to happen. I had a bad — no, horrible week. I missed more picks last week than I had in the previous two combined. I wish I could say it was a tough week for everyone, but virtually every person who entered Kick the Kansan beat me like a dirty rug. Even my partner on the football beat, John Domoney, deserted me.
Domoney usually gives me a few free picks, but last week he chose to help his girlfriend Courtney Olson, Wichita junior. She finished 6-5, and I was 4-7. Thanks, Johnny.
Domoney might regret his decision after this weekend.
Olson is on the panel now,and it looks like it's going to cost Domoney.
"John will buy me dinner if I beat him," Olson said.
And if Domoney beats her?
He isn't take the money.
Domoney said he didn't mind paying for dinner, but he had no intention of losing to his girlfriend.
"If she beats me I'll consider resigning my position on the panel," he said.
Let's not do anything hasty,
buddy. Who am I going to copy off
if you quit?
Rest assured, I'm not ready to hang it up just yet. Even with my
dismal offering last week, my overall record is — drum roll, please — 40-23. That's 63 percent accuracy. Compare that to this week's winners' combined 62 percent (34-21.) and the fact that I did the math myself, and I'm feeling pretty good. Not to mention that I feel an 11-0 weekend coming on. It's never been done in the history of *Kick the Kansan*, but somebody has to be the first. And, hey, if I'm that lucky maybe I can convince Domoney to buy my dinner, too.

Buffs' cornerback injured
BOULDER, Colo. — Colorado senior cornerback Lovell Houston could be facing his fifth shoulder surgery and possibly the end of his football career.
Houston, whose right arm has been in a sling the last few days, has an unstable shoulder, said Colorado Buffalohead head trainer Steve Willard. He said surgery may not be imminent, but Houston is headed in that direction.
"Genetically, his tissues are looser than yours and mine," Willard said. "For whatever reason, despite multiple surgeries he's having instability problems in his shoulders, particularly his right shoulder."
Houston has had reconstructive surgeries on both shoulders in the past. He has played in one game this season, against San Diego State, in which he recorded four tackles and a fumble recovery.
"I don't know if the doctors will let a guy play who's had that many shoulder surgeries," coach Gary Barnett said.
Houston's younger brother, Marcus Houston, is continuing to rehab his right knee. The sophomore running back won't play Saturday against Kansas, and no timetable has been set for his return.
Marcus, like his brother, has played in just one game this season, Aug. 31 against Colorado State.

Tax doesn't deter smokers
Kansas smoker not fazed by increase
can't deter smokers
Courtwright said when Legislature passed the bill, it had planned on making almost $35 million more from cigarette taxes for the state than it had the year before. The state is projecting that it will raise $84 million in total tax revenue from cigarette sales this year, while it brought in $48.8 million in 2001 before the increase.
Kansas' cigarette taxes rose
By Lindsay Hanson
Ihanson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Dedicated cigarette smokers haven't surprised the Legislature in recent months after an initial dip in sales: They keep puffing as prices rise.
Because of the brief decline, the overall number of purchased cigarettes has fallen since the Legislature implemented a 46-cent increase in cigarette taxes this year — the first of its kind in Kansas since 1985.
Kansas retailers sold more than 151,000 packs of cigarettes this July. That's almost 35,000 fewer packs of cigarettes than in July 2001, according to the Department of Administration's statewide receipts for the state's general fund. That number, which reflects the shrinking sales during the first month of the tax increase, is a 19 percent decrease.
Kyle Ramsey/Kansen
But cigarette sales rebounded the following month. This year's total cigarette sales for August were only 2,000 packs below the number for August 2001.
The state has pulled in almost $1 million more in taxes than it expected during the first three months of increased taxes, said Chris Courtwright, representative of the nonpartisan Legislature Research Department in Topeka.
Every state that has ever increased the excise tax has seen tax revenue rise while actual smoking rates fall, said Kevin Walker, senior director of advocacy at the American Heart Association.

cents per pack. On Jan. 1, the tax will rise another 9 cents and cap at 79 cents per pack in the second and final increase authorized by the bill.
Walker said New York state, which rose taxes in April to $1.50 per pack, saw a whopping 50 percent decrease in smoking rates.
Excise taxes vary widely from state to state. Kentucky, known as a haven for cheap cigarettes, charges three cents per pack in excise taxes. Not surprisingly, Kentucky has the highest adult
Kansas senators proposed the tax last year because of the
state's budget crisis, hoping it would supplement the deficit in the state general fund. Kansas is one of 19 states in the nation that raised cigarette excise taxes. Dave Corbin, who served as chair of the Senate tax committee when the bill was proposed, said the bill had been thoroughly researched to assure that

Seat reservations in effect for fans
By Caleb Nothweir
cnothweir@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A trial seating plan for home basketball games will provide students with an alternative to camping out.
For the 2002-2003 basketball season, the plan will set aside about 700 seats as reserved seating for students. Students can pay either $5 or $10 — depending on the game — to reserve a seat in sections 18, 19 or 20A in Allen Fieldhouse. The plan is now in effect.
Students who bought the $100 sports package at the beginning of the semester will be able to reserve the seats during the ticket redemption period. Any extra reserved seats will be available to students who buy single-game tickets.
A second part of the plan sets aside sections 11,12 and 13 on the third level of the fieldhouse for general admission season ticket holders, which is about 1,100 seats. The estimated 1,100 seats in sections 1,20B,21 and 22 will be available for both students and general admission, a group that previously had 1,800 seats allotted to it.
Richard Konzem, senior associate athletics director, helped develop the plan this summer. He said it would increase the number of students attending games.
"The bottom line is more people are going to get to come in the building," he said.
Konzem said in past seasons fewer

Indonesia car bomb surprises students
by Nathan Dayani
ndayani@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Saturday's terrorist bombing outside of a nightclub in Bali, Indonesia, hit close to home for some University of Kansas students.
Two bombs exploded almost simultaneously in Ball. The first, a car bomb outside of a popular nightclub, killed more than 180 people and wounded more than 300. The second exploded outside of a U.S. government office but did not cause any additional casualties.
"It's terrible," said Silvia Hartanto, Surabaya, Indonesia, senior. "But it doesn't really surprise me because it's something that's been happening in Indonesia for a while."
Hartanto, president of the Indonesian Christian Fellowship at the University, said despite the recent political instability in Indonesia, she and many other natives had considered Bali to be one of the country's safest regions.
The U.S. Embassy issued a security advisement yesterday that asked Americans residing in or visiting Indonesia "to examine the necessity of continuing to remain in Indonesia."
Although no group has claimed responsibility for the explosions, the attacks reinforced fears that al Qaeda operatives were active in Indonesia.
Hartanto said she now thought that terrorism could compromise her safety anywhere in the world.
"I don't feel safe anymore, anywhere," she said. "When I came here, it was better, but after the terrorist attack (Sept. 11). I realized no one was safe anymore."
Hartanto said her group would soon discuss how its members would respond to the terrorist attack. Theresa Wiranata, vice president of the Indonesian Students Association, said her organization planned to meet and discuss the incident on Thursday.
Wiranata, Jakarta, Indonesia, senior, also said she was shocked by the bombings.
mgs. She said she was concerned the incident could hinder Indonesian students trying to get a student visa to the United States.
Wiranata and Hartanto both said they were fortunate to not have family members or friends directly affected by the bombing.
Hartanto said she wouldn't be surprised if future terrorism incidents occurred in her homeland.
Ronald Francisco, professor of political science, said no state could effectively prevent all acts of terrorism.

New birth control shot recalled
By Lindsay Hanson
lhanson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Health care providers at Watkins Memorial Health Center have begun contacting the 43 patients who had received a new monthly birth control method that has been recalled by the company that produces it.
Officials at Pharmacia Corporation voluntarily recalled all Lunelle Monthly Contraception pre-filled syringes from the market Thursday because of "possible risk of contraceptive failure."
Myra Strother, chief of Watkins medical staff, advised concerned women to immediately reinforce contraception efforts by using condoms and spermicide foam or cream.
according to a press release. Lunelle has been on the market since January.
Henry Buck Jr., Watkins director of gynecology, said he knew of no instances at Watkins in which the drug had failed. Pharmacia representatives did not return calls Friday.
Like oral forms of contraception, Lunelle uses two hormones, estrogen and progesterone, to prevent pregnancy. Buck said it was possible that certain lots — groups of the drug produced at the same time—lacked a sufficient amount of one of the hormones to make it effective.
Lawrence Memorial Hospital is providing free pregnancy tests for concerned Lunelle users, Strother said.
Watkins' Lunelle patients should call the gynecology department at 864-9566 to discuss future birth control options, or visit www.lunelle.com for information on the drug.

No punishment set for law-breaking officer
TOPEKA — A Topeka police officer did not follow department policies and procedures when he sped through a red light without his lights or siren activated and struck a pickup truck, a police review board said.
A punishment has not been determined for officer Mark Meier, who was hurt in the Oct. 6 crash, along with the truck's driver and passenger. None of their injuries were considered life threatening.
Meier was found to be at fault because the department prohibits officers from violating traffic laws when their sirens are off.
The board's determination comes one month after a judge ordered that a fired Topeka officer should stand trial on a charge of involuntary manslaughter after the officer went through a stop sign and hit a truck, killing its driver.

Murder-suicide hits North Carolina State
RALEIGH, N.C. — Two graduate students were killed on North Carolina State University's campus in an apparent murder-suicide, school officials said.
The pair, a 31-year-old woman and a 49-year-old man, were found on the tennis courts near Carmichael Gym about 15.p.m. Saturday. Public Safety.Director Thomas Younce said.
Their names were not released pending notification of their families.
Police have recovered a handgun and a note that indicated the pair knew each other, Younce said.
A university police officer was jump-starting a car in a nearby parking lot when he heard multiple gunshots, he said.
Officials do not believe the shootings were related to a recent crime spree on campus, Younce said.
Police refuse to give sniper's ID to media
ROCKVILLE, Md. — Investigators hunting an increasingly brazen sniper defended their meager release of information and said yesterday they don't want the killer to know what they know.
Authorities pointed to the dangerous balance between pleading for public help and revealing too much.
"We don't want to release anything that may cause ... anyone to think they're a suspect," said Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms agent Mike Bouchard.
Montgomery County police Chief Charles Moose, meanwhile, has cut back on his news briefings while saying he wishes there was more he could reveal.
"I wish we could give you a name, a mug shot and an address but we're not at that point," he said in one of four appearances he made yesterday on national TV talk shows.
Seven die in bombing at large Finnish mall
WORLD
HELSINKI, Finland — Police sited through evidence yesterday to find out why a 19-year-old college student apparently built and then detonated a bomb in one of Finland's biggest shopping malls, killing himself and six others.
The bomb shattered the shopping mall Friday evening in Vantaa, nine miles north of the capital, Helsinki. Thirty-three people were being treated in hospitals yesterday but none of them were in critical condition, officials said.Eighty people were injured.
The suspect lived in Vantaa and studied chemistry at a technical college, police said. He was not identified pending the result of the investigation.
Chief Superintendent Tero Haapala of the National Bureau of Investigation would not speculate on a motive.

Edwards Campus adds classrooms
New facility to ease campus overcrowding
By Kyle Ramsey
kramsey@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
University officials and donors will meet today to break ground on a $17.8 million classroom building at the University of Kansas' Edwards Campus in Overland Park.
The new building comes to a campus where enrollment has grown 79 percent since it opened in 1993, said Robert Clark, vice chancellor for the Edwards Campus.
The 82,000-square-foot building will include 21 classrooms, a 240-seat auditorium and offices for 45 faculty members.
Clark said the building would be completed in 2004. Money for the building came from private donations.
The building will not only provide room to expand, but also room to breathe in what is now an over-scheduled facility, said Barbara Romzek, associate dean of liberal arts and sciences.
Romzek said it was difficult to offer anything new at the campus because classrooms were often booked solid.
"The idea with the second building is that we'll be able to
offer classes that are better designed and better for students." she said.
Officials from the college hope the new facility will allow the school to offer more social science courses at both the graduate and undergraduate levels.
Budget deficits, as well as lack of office and teaching resources, should not pose a problem in filling the new building. Romzek said. She said the Edwards Campus covered expenses with its own tuition revenues, which came from students taking courses there and not at the Lawrence campus. She said the Edwards programs did not take students away from the main KU campus.
Courses at the Edwards Campus include graduate programs geared toward work force development in the Kansas City area.
"The programming has to have a direct impact on the needs of Kansas City," Clark said.
Money for the new building was donated by the Hall Family Foundation of Kansas City, Mo., the Victor and Helen Regnier Charitable Foundation of Leawood, and revenue bonds
The building will be named after Victor and Helen Regnier.

Local program aids at-risk children
Imagine this: You are 5 years old. You have parents, but the courts aren't sure if you should live with them. You have foster parents, but it's unclear whether you get to stay with them either. You have a county social worker, who has many other clients. You also have a lawyer, who doesn't have much time either.
To give a voice to the child, the Douglas County CASA program, or Court Appointed Special Advocates, pairs up volunteers with abused or neglected children in the social welfare system.
“CASAs provide consistency in the life of a child,” said Margaret Perkins-McGuinness, a Lawrence junior and CASA volunteer. “As a CASA, a lot of times
KU students are some of the volunteers in the program.
you are supporting children who live in a state of flux. They don't have consistency in housing, in social workers, or in the agencies that support them."
Although she can't talk about the specifics of the case to which she's assigned, the experience has been rewarding, Perkins-McGuinness said. She said volunteers tried to meet with the children at least once a week to provide emotional support.
CASA volunteers help judges make an educated decision about the child's future. They talk with people who are familiar with the child's history to compile monthly reports for the child's judge. The reports help determine whether it's in the child's best interest to stay with parents, guardians or other relatives, get placed in foster care, or become eligible for permanent adoption.
Willow Robin, St. Louis senior said she was willing to carry this

heavy, sometimes stressful burden.
One of the hardest parts of the job is staying neutral, Robin said.
"You can't pick favorites," she said of the people involved in her assigned case. "You are only here to get the facts and give information about what will be best for the child."
The program was started by a Seattle judge who was concerned about making uninformed decisions about abused and neglected
children's lives. As a result, Superior Court Judge David W. Soukup started training community volunteers in 1977.
There are now 950 CASA programs nationwide, with more than 52,000 volunteers, according to the national headquarters in Seattle. The Douglas County program is one of 24 CASA programs in Kansas and has served more than 450 children since it was established in 1991.
The National CASA association received the President's Volunteer Action Award from President Ronald Reagan on April 22, 1985. It's also the philanthropy of the Kappa Alpha Theta sorority.
the Raphael Institute. "It's an important program." Perkins-McGuinness said. "It's really solidified how much of an effect social workers and the system can have in the lives of a child."

Nine members from the University of Kansas' Bioscience Initiative Program attended a conference for minorities in science, and one of them won an award
The Society for the Advancement of Chicanos and Native Americans in Science held the conference in Anaheim, Calif., from September 26 to 29. Having been only the second year that anyone from the University
attended, Ashley Meagher's "Outstanding Student Presentation" award, for her presentation on retro viruses, became an even bigger delight.
"I just had a great time," the Golden, Colo., senior said. "It was a unique experience with great networking possibilities."
The main objective of the conference is to get minorities involved in science and increase the field's diversity, according to Marigold Linton, Director of American Indian Outreach.
"It was a wonderful sea of
brown faces," she said. "This is a very talented group of professionals."
Not all of the members of this program are students at the University. Bioscience Initiative is also open to Haskell University students. Sonny Duncan, Haskell senior, works with several professors in the chemistry department. His research involves the analysis of bacteria and their ability to bind with toxic and organic metals. At the conference, he presented a poster about his research, which meant he had
to stand by his poster for three hours and explain it to people as they came by and asked about it.
"It made the day go by quicker if I was explaining it," he said. "Otherwise it was really tiring."
The experience was positive for those who went, according to Claudia Bode, the program's coordinator.
"They had such a good time learning from each other," she said. "I am so proud of all of them."
Chippendales dancers fulfill fantasies for local female fans

Shay Cox enjoyed her lap dance Saturday night, but she also encountered a problem.
"I didn't know where to put the dollar," the Derby junior said.
Cox eventually figured out the proper place for the tip was a tiny pocket in the male dancer's thong underwear.
The men dancing in thongs Saturday night at Coyote's night
club, 1003 E. 23rd St., were a group of entertainers called Chippendales.
Stephanine Dodge, Topeka junior, bought $30 VIP tickets for the show, which allowed patrons to sit closer to the stage at tables.
General admission tickets cost $20, but Dodge said the VIP tickets afforded a better view and were well worth the extra expense.
"They were all gorgeous, they all had six packs," she said, referring to the dancers.
Dodge said the best thing she heard all night was a question a dancer asked the audience.
"He was like, 'Do you ladies want to get wet?'"" she said.
While some of Chippendales performed skits involving construction or medical-field themes onstage, other dancers circulated the club offering lap dances for $1.
Dodge said she enjoyed the lap dances because even though touching the men was usually a
taboo, the Chippendales encouraged it.
Trent Glass, general manager of Coyote's, said the excitement was almost too much to bear when male entertainers performed.
"There's a lot of estrogen in the air," he said.
Glass said Coyote's tried to get male entertainers to perform there because thousands of women get neglected in the male- entertainment market in Lawrence.
"Things get catered to men more often than women," he said. "We're really the only bar in town that does male entertainment."
Glass said Coyote's had hosted male entertainers in the past, but did not cross the line into all-nude dancers.
Although most of the ladies enjoyed the show,some students considered such entertainment distasteful.
Brenda Pollom, St. Louis senior, saw the Chippendales show last semester. She did not
go to Coyote's Saturday and said she would only watch the dancers again if the event was free.
"It was seriously almost offensive," she said. "It was corny and lame."
Pollom said it was amazing to see people get excited about the dancers.
"It was more funny to watch the people in the audience than the guys," she said.

KANSAN EDITORIAL BOARD
Students need information about schedule changes
The University of Kansas doesn't guarantee smooth sailing on your way to the real world. This is painfully obvious in the way that schools often change class availability without adequately informing students.
Michelle Santangelo, Atlantic City, N.J., senior, experienced the frustration of class changes this fall.
In order for Santangelo, a business and accounting major, to be able to take the Certified Public Accountants exam after graduation in May, she has to have 150 hours of credit or a Masters in Accounting and Information Systems.
Santangelo is completing the 150 hours of credit option. To complete that option, she has to take graduate-level classes in auditing and an advanced accounting elective.
In May, an advisor told Santangelo that she would no longer be able to take either of her classes in spring 2003 because both were only being offered in the fall.
Professor Paul Mason is the associate director of accounting and information systems for the School of Business.
But because of the class changes, Santango will be unable to take CPA unless she takes postgraduate classes.
He said the business school has had to make cut-backs because of lack of resources.
Mason said that if students find themselves in this kind of situation to go directly to the department and talk
to the person in charge
Mason also offered some preventative measures so this doesn't happen to other business students wanting to go into accounting.
First, he said to take advantage of programs like Beta Alpha Psi, which offer information to students about careers, such as what qualifications they need to have to sit for the CPA in certain states.
He also recommended that business students declare their major by their junior year because this will help keep them in the sequence they need to graduate on time.
Yet, the University's schools need to do a better job of informing students of the changes, so students like Santangelo aren't stuck trying to go through the closed-class opener process because of lack of information.
Most students have e-mail accounts registered with the University. When schools make changes in the classes being offered after the timetable has been released for the upcoming semester, e-mails need to be sent to all students enrolled in the school.
A little information from the schools and communication by students could help everyone.

COMMENTARY
I wear a Speedo. Yes, you can stop laughing now. I don't wear a Speedo for fashion or to eliminate those pesky tan lines on my legs.
I wear a Speedo when I swim laps or when I play water polo for the KU club team simply because it's faster.
1888
I swam competitively all the way through high school so it really isn't a big deal to me. But when I talk to people about water polo, the conversation nine-out of 10 times leads to the question "Do you wear a Speedo?"
Eric Borja opinion@kansan.com
Guys love to scratch their junk, talk about how big and bold it is, but when it comes right down to it, no one except for close friends and lovers ever get to see
When I tell them yes, their response is usually five to 10 minutes of non-stop laughter.
I understand why the thought of a man in a Speedo is funny. I mean it's small and skimpy and it doesn't do much to hide the twig and giggleberries. But other than that, it's just a piece of lycra.
It is funny because the penis is still a taboo and embarrassing thing in America.
But what I don't understand is why it is acceptable for women to wear tight fitting and revealing clothing but it is culturally unacceptable for men to show off their cod pieces.
If a woman has nice breasts more than likely she wears bras or outfits to accentuate them. But if a man is well-hung, you don't see him wearing shrunken Wranglers to try and show it off.
Our culture has engraved in our minds that it is unacceptable for men to flaunt their stuff.
When is the last time you saw a guy wear biking shorts or absurdly tight shorts to a bar or restaurant here in Lawrence? They would probably be kicked or laughed out of any place.
Why are there any Guys Gone Wild videos with dudes flashing their stuff?
The penis is seen as a threatening weapon of mass destruction and baby making.
This repression of the ole' skinboat has not only affected our physical prowess but our mojo as well.
Here in America,men are pussycats.
We are taught to keep the tiger caged up in baggy shorts and boxers. For those of us lucky enough to have been to Europe, we all know to well what goes on over there.
The male libido and the male form are celebrated. Men wear jeans so tight you can see their credit card number in their back pocket.
Men wear tighter shirts and show more cleavage than women do. Go to any beach in Spain or Italy and you will see enough banana hammocks and thongs on guys to make John Waters blush.
And this all is considered very masculine and sexy, not homosexual or girly like in America.
Men of KU mount up.
Let us rise together and beat this penis oppression that has been laid on us by society.
Let us all go on Spring Break packing nothing but Speedes. Let us all wear tightie white underwear and tight jeans.
Let us embrace the male form no matter if it is big, small, short or shriveled and to the left.
Let's make this our cod piece independence day.

Working with children changes your life as well as theirs
Who helped make you? I don't mean biologically, but rather the person you are. Who were your mentors?
After Colorado's Columbine tragedy, I got to thinking about kids and who and where their role models are, and how badly we all need someone in our lives to show us the way.
I've had my share so what would I give back to the world in return? I'm an only child and I have no kids of my own. I could adopt a child, but I don't make enough money to properly raise one.

I wondered, from the beginning, what changes I might make in her life. I thought she might ask me to help with her homework or seek my advice on the various perils of becoming a teenager.
I've shopping with her and she has asked me, "Which do you like better, the pink top or the orange one?"
I've watched her turn from a child into a tall, slender and very confident young lady.

She's said, "But you work at a history museum. How boring is THAT?"
Through it all I have gritted my teeth and kept hoping to make a difference.
And then a few weeks ago I took Leslie and her friend to the Renaissance Festival
I thought it would be a good educational experience. But when we got there the two of them headed off "to look for hotties" instead.
That made me feel good. The fact is, I've probably been the one who has received the lion's share in this relationship.
Leslie has given me an opportunity to interact with a young person.
But before we left she told me that if she didn't get to be an interior designer when she grows up she wants to be a history teacher.
Leslie has taught me I need to keep on my toes and remember that, even when you're not aware of it, someone is watching you. Someone is looking to see how you do it, because they want to do it that
way, too.
That is the finest gift anyone can give you.
You too can get this gift and make a difference in the life of a child. Contact Big Brothers/ Big Sisters of Douglas County at 843-7359. There are plenty of good kids looking for mentors, including Leslie's 10-year-old brother.
He loves to swim and play drums, but he has Down syndrome and has been waiting four years for a Big Brother.
I wonder who is going to help make him, and whose life he will change for the better.

Cigarette taxes
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
the state would not lose money because consumers could not afford to keep buying the cigarettes.
"Pretty good research says that if people want a pack of cigarettes, they're going to buy them no matter the cost," he said. Corbin said his committee had originally proposed a higher tax increase than the final compromise.
Corbin said that at the time of the bill's proposal, almost 70 percent of Kansans polled supported the tax increase. He said that reflected the number of nonsmokers in the state who wouldn't mind being taxed on something that would not affect them.
One student echoed Corbin's sentiment, saying he hadn't changed his behaviors since the taxes had jumped.
Shelby Massey, Amarillo,
Texas, freshman, said he had
noticed a difference of as much as
one dollar in price between Texas
prices and Kansas prices. Before moving to Kansas, he said he had paid $3.25 per pack for Camel Lights, but his loyalty to the brand had driven him to pay as much as $4.25 per pack at gas stations in Kansas.
than that of Kansas.
Raising cigarette taxes in Kansas could push consumers to seek other places to buy their cigarettes, Courtwright said. According to his department's data, 60 percent of the Kansas population lives within a 30-minute drive from a neighboring state. He said legislators had considered the possibility of consumers commuting to border towns or Native American reservations to purchase cigarettes, where state and federal tax laws do not apply. Legislators considered that cheaper states such as Oklahoma, with a 23-cent tax, Missouri, with a 17-cent tax, and Colorado, with a 20-cent tax, could draw consumers, subtracting money that could potentially be directed into the State General Fund. Nebraska tacks a 64-cent tax to each pack of cigarettes, an amount slightly lower
Terri Roberts, of the Kansas SmokeLess Kids Initiative, Inc., said her group had lobbied to raise the tax to deter smokers because of health reasons. Higher prices would cause fewer young people to take up the habit, cutting future state Medicaid costs in the meantime because many of the state's current Medicaid patients have smoking-related health problems.
The campaign data says 26.1 percent of Kansas youth and 21.1 percent of adults smoke — specifically,412,000.Kansas has the 15th-lowest adult smoking rate in the U.S.
Cigarette specialty stores such as Smoker Friendly, 3010 Iowa St., have kept a steady sales pace so far through the tax increase. Nick Jacob, sales clerk and Lawrence junior at Johnson County Community College, said customers who said they would quit smoking once cigarettes reached a certain price would probably find other ways to continue the habit.
"Usually what they'll do instead of quitting smoking is smoke a cheaper brand," he said.
Jacob said the recent closing of the Smoker Friendly store on 23rd Street was not related to a loss in profit. The 23rd Street location had served as a temporary location to keep the business going after a fire next door to the Iowa location had caused a hiatus in business.
Cheaper brands have been the answer for Bill Lamb, Overland Park junior. He said he wouldn't go across lines to buy cartons of cigarettes, because a stock-pile of cigarettes would tie him to the habit.
Lamb said he had switched to Doral Lights, a less-desirable brand, which costs about $2.30 per pack. Previously, he smoked Parliament Lights, which cost as much as $4.30 at some gas stations.
"I would like to quit anyway," he said. "And I'm too lazy to go anywhere distant to buy cigarettes."

"Any government that says they can provide complete protection from terror is lying," said Francisco, who has studied the relationship between protest and repression.
"Not even Nazi Germany could completely eliminate terror," he said.
Francisco said terror groups had almost limitless options when choosing the time method, location and strategies of a terror attack.
He said states often could not overcome these overwhelming
informational advantages making it extremely difficult to prevent acts of terror.
Terror groups strike not only to instill fear, but also to mobilize people in support of the terrorist group's goals, Francisco said.
"They are usually extremists whose goal is to mobilize people," he said. "If you can't mobilize people and you still have an extreme goal, about the only way to do it is to commit an act of terror."

"But it's not the worst seats where you don't want to reserve them," Ng said.
Student basketball fans offered mixed reactions.
"For $10 extra I should be seeing myself on Sports Center at 10," he said.
Brian Buck, Mission senior, said the additional cost would be too much for the seat he would receive.

"Camping out is part of the experience," Jeff Smith, Fort Worth, Texas, freshman, said.
Students can pay $10 for a reserved seat at six games: UCLA, Arizona, Missouri, Texas, Kansas State and Oklahoma State. All other games require a $5 fee for a reserved seat. Ng said reserved seating for the six games was more expensive because these were consistently the most popular games and higher attendance was expected.
Hesaid proceeds from reserved seating fees would be divided equally between the Athletics Department and Student Senate.
Konzem said the department would evaluate the seating plan

"It's a trial plan," he said. "If something happens and it doesn't work, we'll make adjustments."

KANSAS WOMEN'S GOL Women's golf to play in Wichita today
With three top-15 finishes under its belt so far this fall, the women's golf team is still hungry as they go to Wichita for the Marilyn Smith Sunflower Invitational at Willowbend Golf Club.
The first 36 holes of the tournament will be played this afternoon, while the third and final round will take place tomorrow morning. Wichita State will host the tournament. Kansas State is the only other Big 12 Conference team in the competition.
In its last outing, the team finished 11th at the Shootout at the Legends in Franklin, Ind.
Under new coach Megan Menzel, the Jayhawks have finished no lower than 14th in their first three outings. They have been led by senior Tiffany Kruggel, who is on pace to break the school record for lowest average score per 18 holes in a season. Her current average of 76.33 strokes is ahead of the record of 78.20 strokes by Mandy Munsch during the 1998-1999 season.
"We just need a tournament that four people have good scores at the same time," Kruggel said. "If that happens then we will start beating other teams."

Twins, doubles partners lose in second round
The twin tandem of Kristen and Courtney Steinbock showed some grit in the Riviera All-American tournament Tuesday and Wednesday. The twins overcame a 7-2 deficit to win a tiebreaker defeating Jill Buckley and Amy Trefethen of Kentucky.
"It was a huge win for them," coach Kilmeny Waterman said. "They got off to a slow start but really played well together to come from behind."
The Steinbocks struggled in the second round losing a close match to the No. 8-ranked Lilina Suurvarik and Alesia Mikalayeva of Illinois State.
The Jayhawks will travel to Tulsa,
Okla., for the Omni Regionals Oct. 24-27.

look at its record.
While Kansas' men's team was a perfect 16-0 in the Big 12 Conference, the women's team was as imperfect as possible, going 0-16.
Life lessons like that only make you stronger, right? Washington's sure hoping so. And really, things can't get much worse for the Jayhawks after last year.
That's why Washington is still here, her heart won't let her quit.
She wants to prove she's not too old, that the game hasn't passed her by.
But the one thing the ladies had was heart.
More than anything, she wants to do what she's always done — win, even though there are eight new women on the team, six of which are freshman.
But the women are talented. The freshman class was ranked in the top 25 by one recruiting service.
A video tribute honoring Washington played on four screens inside the Fieldhouse during Late Night With Roy Williams. It showed the woman who has been a staple of Kansas basketball
A simple five-minute tribute can't capture 30 years of lives changed, pride built, and basketball dreams fulfilled. It can't connect Washington's accomplished past to the successful future she wants to build for this team — winning a seventh conference championship and making the NCAA tournament a 12th time.
longer than even the beloved Williams.
That's her nature.
"I'm very excited about getting on the floor with them," Washington said.
Washington won't win the Big 12 this year, but she'll sure have fun trying.
All you have to do is look at her smile.

Only Devin West's 319 yards for Missouri in 1998 and Barry Sanders' 313 yards for Oklahoma State in 1988 were better.
He also moved into the top five on another list. Brown's output was the third-best single-game rushing total in Colorado history behind Rashaan Salaam (317) and Charlie Davis (342).
Brown said he had no idea that he was anywhere near the record books during the game.
"I thought I was at like one-something, 170," he said. "I was way off until they notified me after the game."
Colorado coach Gary Barnett said he couldn't be happier with his junior running back. Football fans have yet to see Brown's full potential, Barnett said.
"He just gets better and better," Barnett said. "What a stallion."
After the game with Kansas, Brown leads the nation in rushing with 164.5 yards per game. He also averages 7.0 yards per carry. He averaged 12.4 yards per carry against the Jayhawks.
Brown's next test will come against the seventh-ranked defense in the Big 12 when he and the Buffaloes meet Baylor on Saturday.

Volleyball victory sets season record
By Jason Hwang

Kansan sportwriter
The way the Kansas volleyball team has been playing, the Horejsi Family Athletics Center should have a doormat that reads, "Home Sween Home."
The Jayhawks (13-2, 4-2 Big 12) remained undefeated at home Saturday after knocked off the Baylor Bears (8-9, 2-5) in three games (30-26, 30-26, 30-28).
This is the Jayhawks' 12th victory by a 3-0 sweep, which sets a season record.
"A break from here and there and this match would have been extended to five games, like our other matches with Baylor," coach Ray Bechard said. "But we played when we needed to at the right times."
Junior outside hitter Sarah Rome led the team with 13 kills. Sophomore middle blocker Ashley Michaels, junior outside hitter Abbie Jacobson and freshman middle blocker Josiane Lima each tallied 10 kills.
"As the game went on, we were more comfortable where they were hitting and when they were going to pass the ball," Rome said. "We got a lot better defensively as the game progressed."
Senior defensive specialist Jennifer Kraft had one service ace.
which tied her with Julie Woodruff (1988-91) for career aces at Kansas with 134.
In game one, Baylor had a quick 3-0 start, and Kansas did not take the lead until it got a 14-13 advantage. The Jayhawks did not hold the lead for long as the Bears tied the game at 15 and regained the lead. After Kansas took a 25-24 lead, Baylor called a timeout. The Jayhawks scored four of the final six points to win game one, 30-26.
The roles reversed in game two as Kansas held the lead for the majority of the game. The Bears led only at 3-2 and 5-4. With their largest lead at three points, the Jayhawks made a 4-0 run to stretch the lead to 25-20 before going on to the victory.
Trailing 5-4 in game three, Kansas scored the next four points and took an 8-5 advantage. Kansas extended its lead to 27-23, scoring three straight points, including two consecutive blocks which halted any hopes of a Baylor comeback. Kansas sealed the match, winning the final game 30-28.

Sophomore middle blocker Ashley Michaels and junior outside hitter Sarah Rome rise to block an attack from Baylor forwards. Kansas swept Baylor Saturday at home in three matches.
The Jayhawks responded to that by defeating the Cowgirls of Oklahoma State 6-0 on Friday. But Kansas dropped a heartbreaker to Oklahoma 2-1 yesterday, despite a late comeback.
Before the Kansas soccer team began play this weekend, coach Mark Francis said the competition would be a tough test for his team, and that it needed to play its best.
The first was a team record for goals in a game. Freshman Caroline Smith set the single-season scoring record with her 11th goal of the season.
Kansas settworecords in the Oklahoma State victory.
Kansas dominated the game on both ends of the field, as it held Oklahoma State to only two shots for the entire game, and did not let a shot on a goal in the first half. Oklahoma State did not get a shot on goal until 71:45 into the game.
Soccer team splits weekend games, ends win streak
Swimming and diving team takes 4th place
By losing, Kansas' record dropped to 9-3-2 and 3-2-1 in Big 12 Conference play. Oklahoma's conference record improved to 4-1.
The loss to the Sooners snapped the Jayhawks' ninegame winning streak at home.
Kansas will get an opportunity to start another home winning streak as it hosts non-conference foe Central Missouri State at 4 p.m. Friday at SuperTarget Field.
Kansas trailed Oklahoma 2-0 for the majority of the game until sophomore Stacy Leeper scored with 2:48 minutes remaining in the game. Minutes later Leeper almost sent the game into overtime but her shot sailed inches wide of the left post. Both of Oklahoma's goals were scored by Becky Nelson.
Kansas also got major contributions from freshman Jessica Smith, who scored two

The Kansas swimming and diving team finished fourth at the Big 12 Relays in Lincoln, Neb., this weekend.
Texas took the top spot with 120 points, followed by Texas A&M with 71, Missouri with 68. Kansas with 60, Iowa State with 51 and Nebraska with 26.

time of 3.50.45.
While the team did not finish in the top half of the six-team field, it did walk away with a few top-finishes.
The 800-yard relay team consisted of freshman Gina Gnatzig, Krueger, Gruber and Colver. It finished with a time of 7:40.21.
"We swam the 400 and 800 freestyle relay stroke for stroke with Texas, who was ranked in the top eight last year in both of those relays," Campbell said. "We competed with them, and that means we could ultimately end up with times good enough for the NCAA Championships."
The Jayhawks had a first-place finish in the 300-yard breast-stroke relay from sophomores Miranda Isaac and Jackie Krueger and junior Kristen Johnson.
KU earned second-place finishes in the 400-yard and 800- yard freestyle relays.

six rebounds and scored 6 points, including a two-handed dunk off an assist from fellow walk-on Vinson. Roles were nearly reversed the following trip down the floor as Moody dished to Vinson who was fouled as he went in for a layup. He made both free throws for his only points.
Other highlights included a soaring, two-handed jam by 6 foot 1, sophomore guard Aaron Miles. He, Langford and second-year freshman Jeff Hawkins drew applause with a series of athletic dunks in warm-ups.
Langford said after the scrimimage that Miles' leaping ability
was not a surprise to him.
"He could always jump like that," Langford said. "I guess he just found his boost again."
The fans might have been amazed by the dunks, but Williams told reporters he was most impressed with the plays of his other preseason All-Americans.
Nick Collison was 3-of-8 from the floor with a free throw for 7 points to go along with 4 rebounds and a block in 18 minutes.
"To me, the best players on the court were Nick Collison and Keith Langford," Williams said. "Maybe Keith saw the old man Brett Ballard guarding him, maybe that had something to do with it too."

Younger Spears following sister
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES—Jamie Lynn Spears is looking for the show business equivalent of lightning striking twice.
"I'll probably do a lot of acting first, then go to singing," said the precocious kid sister of pop star Brittany Spears.
"But I am going to definitely sing someday," she added after a brief moment of reflection. "So when I do start singing, buy my album!"
For now, the youngest of three Spears siblings (the oldest is a brother, Bryan), says she has her hands full balancing school and her responsibilities as the youngest cast member of the comedy-variety show All That (Saturdays, 8 p.m. Eastern).
A sort of Saturday Night Live for kids, All That is in its eighth season on Nickelodeon; Jamie Lynn joins a veteran cast of actors who are an average of 4 years older than her.
It was a slightly awkward adjustment for the stick-thin 11-year-old from Kentwood, La., who looks like a younger, skinnier version of her 20-year-old superstar sister.
But having wrapped a season of new episodes that began airing in September, all concerned say Jamie Lynn fit right into what she acknowledges was her first substantial acting job. She made a brief appearance as a younger version of her sister in Crossroads, Spears' film debut, and she's done a handful of commercials.
"At first I was too scared to act in front of these people, so I was real shy," says Jamie Lynn, gesturing toward castmates Shane Lyons and Chelsea Brummet.
"But then," she adds, "they were actually really nice. But they were a lot of fun."
It didn't hurt, the others say, that Jamie Lynn was willing to jump right into scenes that included dousing her with egg yolk and tossing her into trash bins. Soon she was engaging in the cast's seemingly endless stream of offstage banter.
"I was expecting someone who was going to be a little kiddish, kind of immature," says Lyons, 15. "But what we got was someone who could relate and talk and just mess around with us on our level."

Rocking with Roy

The 2002 installment of Late Night with Roy Williams on Friday in Allen Fieldhouse showed off the dancing and acting talents of KU men's and women's basketball teams in an MTV-themed production.
Dancing and acting took precedence over basketball on Friday, but the Jayhawks have not booked a TRL appearance.
A music video countdown included performances by freshmen Moulaye Niang, Christian Moody and Stephen Vinson wearing Kansas State shirts and straw hats dancing to "Thank God I'm a Country Boy." Sophomore Aaron Miles made a guest appearance as Britney Spears in a rendition of "Baby, One More Time."
"I love watching our guys act a fool," Williams said.
Senior Nick Collison gave the capacity crowd an MTV News-style update including breaking news stories such as "Purple still sucks," and a Quin Snyder-bashing story about a lack of hair gel in
"Local sources believe there is a stockpile at the Hearnes Center," Collison said.
Columbia, Mo.
After his last Late Night experience, Collison said he enjoyed the skits and didn't let his own performances rattle him.
"I was just trying not to screw up," he said. "I'm always a little bit nervous but this year was just a lot of fun. It was probably the most fun since I've been here."
Changes at the Fieldhouse made this Late Night more fun for fans.
Additional speakers and a clearer sound system allowed fans to hear dialogue from players. A video tribute to women's coach Marian Washington and a highlight show from last year's Final Four season played on four large video boards hanging from the rafters.
This element of the festivities pleased Williams, who shed tears after watching a clip of him speaking to fans after last year's Final Four loss to Maryland.
"That was hard for me," he said. "I don't mind saying I had tears in my eyes tonight. That was hard to watch."
The crowd greeted recruits J.R. Gid

dens, Jeremy Case and David Padgett with applause as they entered the gym. All three have given oral commitments to Kansas. Recruit Josh Boone joined the three in the stands and watched as fans carried jumbo-sized fake Kansas jerseys around the court.
Langford said he thinks Late Night helps the recruitment process.
"I think it could have a tremendous impact, seeing the fan support firsthand," he said. "It's probably the biggest recruiting tool you could use to get a player."
Kansas fans will have to wait less than a month for another glimpse at the basketball teams. The EA Sports All-Stars kick off the men's exhibition season on Nov. 4 in Allen Fieldhouse. The women's basketball team will play the Basketball Travelers in an exhibition game on Nov. 13 in Allen Fieldhouse.

Shots sailed far from the baskets, defensive schemes broke down, players tugged on their shorts and the fans loved it. The 2002-2003 basketball season got underway at 12:01 Saturday morning as the men's basketball team took the floor for the finale of Late Night with Roy Williams.
The annual, 20-minute scrimmage between the Crimson and Blue featured old and new Jayhawks as Blue easily handled Crimson 40-26. Guards Jeff Boschee and Brett Ballard from last year's team filled in for Crimson, and forward Todd Kappelmann, also a senior last year, suited up for Blue. They tried to keep pace with freshmen forwards
Moulaye Niang and Christian Moody and freshman guard Stephen Vinson.
Junior college transfer left Graves did not play in the scrimmage. Kansas coach Roy Williams told reporters on Thursday that Graves had not met requirements to join the team yet. Senior guard and preseason All-American Kirk Hinrich also sat out the scrimmage with a hip pointer.
One Kansas player that definitely did play with sophomore guard Keith Langford. Langford lead all scorers with 15 points on 7-of-10 shooting for Blue. Another bright spot for Blue was Moody. The walk-on grabbed

This is bad news for the Jayhawks who fell behind by two touchdowns in the first quarter for the third straight game Saturday against the Buffalooes. The Jayhawks also allowed 427 rushing yards in the 53-29 loss.
In its next four games, the Kansas football team will face Texas A&M, Missouri, Kansas State and Nebraska, all teams that like to get an early lead and control the game by running the ball.
An eight-yard touchdown pass from Colorado quarterback Robert Hodge to wide receiver D.J. Hackett on Colorado's first possession of the game put the Buffaloes ahead 7-0.
"Our players played hard, fought hard and gave everything they had to give," Kansas coach Mark Mangino said. "We were just beaten by a better football team today."
Kansas quarterback Bill Whittemore fumbled on Kansas' ensuing possession to give Colorado the ball on the Buffaloes' 18 yard line.

Colorado back blasts Kansas

Kansas coach Mark Mangino has said all season that the Jayhawk defense must stop the big play. That's easier said than done when faced with Colorado's 6 foot 3,220 pound running back Chris Brown.
Brown broke loose on three plays for 50 yards or more, including a 78-yard touchdown run with 10 minutes left in the first quarter. When Kansas took a 15-14 lead in the second quarter, Brown made sure the Jayhawks' advantage was short-lived. His 51-yard run for a touchdown put the Buffaloes ahead 20-15 and began a series of 22 unanswered points by Colorado.
Brown told reporters after the game the significance of those plays was greater than putting points on the scoreboard.
"I think it pretty much takes the wind out of their sails," he said. "Sometimes if they're doing good and then they give a big play it kind of hurts."
Brown was a pain for the Jayhawks all day. At halftime he had 164 yards on 14 carries. His 309 yards on 25 carries at the end of the day was the third-most rushing yards ever by a Kansas opponent.

Oread houses hit ground

The Dread houses in the 1300 block of Ohio Street tie demolished. The four houses, built in the 1900s, were knocked down yesterday afternoon.
Battle over four houses ends with demolition to expand student housing
By Michelle Burhnn

A two-year dispute came to a final and destructive end within hours yesterday when the University of Kansas demolished four houses in the 1300 block of Ohio Street to make way for two new scholarship halls.
While onlookers gathered to watch as a bulldozer tore down the structures, one
opponent of the demolition stayed away.
"I will probably walk down there eventually," said Candice Davis, president of the Oread Neighborhood Association. "But it might be too hard to do that. We're not just talking about three houses. The University has taken the whole block."
Two apartment buildings are expected to be torn down later this week, said Lynn Bretz, director of University Relations. The lots will be cleared then and seeded for grass, Bretz said.
A long history
The demolition follows about two years of controversy surrounding the historic environs of the nearby Usher

House, 1425 Tennessee St.
In March, the state preservation officer ruled that the demolition of three houses — 1333, 1329 and 1323 Ohio St. would damage the environs of the
Usher House, which is now occupied by Beta Theta Pi fraternity. The Campus Preservation Board approved the demolition of the fourth house earlier.
In June, Chancellor Robert Hemenway appealed the ruling to the governor, whose Sept. 4 ruling allowed the University to tear down the houses.
Bretz said the University delayed the demolition to allow individuals to offer to move the houses to a different lot.
But the Oct. 7 deadline passed without much progress, Davis said, and she wasn't told when the University would demolish the houses.

Professors view test files as unfair edge
By Todd Rapp

Kansanstaffwriter
Most student living organizations keep test files, which are compiled copies of test question and answer sheets, to help members of their groups perform better in exams. But, KU professors say access to the files creates an unfair advantage for students who have it over those who don't.
Greek chapters, scholarship halls and in some cases, residence halls, have pushed residents to bring or copy tests they have taken. These are then placed in test files to aid future students.
Kyle Anthony, vice president of Theta Chi fraternity and Wichita junior, said he considered test files useful but did not put emphasis on members of his chapter bringing them in. Anthony said men studied on their
own rather than using the test files because they had a limited library.
Being open just three years, Margaret Amini Scholarship Hall does not have a very complete test file. However, Kristin Baranek, hall president and Overland Park junior, said "We try to encourage people to add to the file, but some people don't contribute, and some contribute more than others."
Aubrey Montague, Miller Scholarship Hall secretary and Great Bend junior, said Miller's test files weren't useful or up-to-date anymore. She said it was more useful to go to an older resident in the hall and ask her questions.
Some professors have taken steps to prevent test files from being updated.

51-year-old finding her 'write' track to graduate
By Aaron Passman

Kansan staff writer
When Candy Ruff graduates in May, her resume will contain more than just the typical student jobs.
In addition to being an undergraduate student in history, Ruff, 51, spent eight years as a social worker, worked 10 years representing Leavenworth County in the Kansas House of Representatives and in the meantime, wrote as a journalist. Before entering the Legislature, Ruff worked 10 years at the Leavenworth Times and she now writes a weekly Legislature column for The Topeka Capital-Journal Online (www.cionline.com).
Ruff graduated from high school in Springfield, Mo., then started college in Kansas City. Shortly thereafter, she began working as a social
worker, working with the Leavenworth County Council on Aging. She briefly returned to college in 1982 to finish a degree in public administration, but the death of her

brother that fall cut her time at college short.
Through a friend, Ruff got a job writing for The Leavenworth Times and spent 10 years as its lifestyle editor. Ruff stopped writing for The Leavenworth Times in 1991 but began working for the Capital-Journal a few weeks later, which eventually led to her career as a legislator.
Last year, Ruff was back at KU and enrolled in an online class, where Rob Curley, former Capital Journal online editor, gave a presentation that inspired her.
"I'm a print journalist, but the online class just opened up a new world to me." Ruff said.
"At that time they had Jeff Peterson, a Republican from Manhattan, doing a Legislature column, but I didn't like the one-sided aspect of it," she said. "So, I told Rob Curley that I thought maybe they should have a Democratic column also, and he told me to put my money where my mouth is."

Catherine Warren, Lake Forest, Ill., freshman, and Katie Carver, Colorado Springs, Colo., freshman, were assigned as roommates in Corbin Hall. Students who have been randomly assigned roommates often end up having an enjoyable experience or having big problems.
Roommates: love or hate relationship?
By Matt Stumpff
mstmpftpk@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Random roommate assignments can result in close friendships or disaster.
The department of student housing places students in rooms relying almost entirely on chance, said Misty Cloud, one of the department's assignment coordinators. She said the only criterion for placing residents was whether people wanted to allow visits from members of the opposite sex. Before this year, when student housing went smoke free, smoking and noise level preferences were offered as well.
The method brings varied results.
Katie Carver, Corbin Hall resident, said she was happy with the way the random assignment worked out for her.
"We are really good friends," she said.
"We are really good friends," she said. The Colorado Springs, Colo., freshman, said she had no choice but to have a random roommate assigned to her.
"I didn't know anybody going to KU," Carver said.
Carver's roommate, Catherine Warren, Lake Forest, Ill., freshman said she had more choice in the matter than Carver. She knew people who were going to attend the University of Kansas, but chose to have a random roommate.
"I wanted to meet new people." Warren said.She said her relationship with Carver worked because they shared many things in common.
Not all random roommate assignments have a happy ending. Chris Crandall, associate professor of psychology
said incompatible students could still get along.
"You need to spend time acquiring skills to get along," Crandall said. "And just like a marriage, some people do it and some don't."
Mike Haake and his freshman-year roommate didn't make the living arrangement work.
"We were completely different people." Haake, Olateh senior, said.
Conflicting drinking habits put a damper on the relationship.

"Me and my friend were drinking in my room, and my roommate came in," Haake said. "Five minutes later, the RA walks in and busts both of us for drinking."

KC corporate criminal to give lecture today at Union
A former chief financial officer of a Kansas City investment firm who pleaded guilty to federal conspiracy and income tax charges will discuss corporate crime at 4:45 p.m. today at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
Richard Halford, 67, of Overland Park, will talk about the consequences of white collar crime. The program is directed to students enrolled in the School of Business' emerging markets class, but the lecture is open to the public.
The presentation is a community service requirement in Halford's sentence.
Halford, former CEO of Owl Securities and Investments Ltd., pleaded guilty in 2001 to one felony count of conspiracy to violate the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and three misdemeanor counts of failure to pay federal income taxes. Prosecutors said Halford offered $1.5 million in bribes to Costa Rican officials and politicians to push the construction of a port and resort complex there.

Guide may keep cops from bash crashing

Students will soon have a partner in protecting their parties from police.
The Off-Campus Living Resource Center is publishing a handbook that will inform students about how to throw a party without legal ramifications.
Sam Pierron, Lawrence senior and director of the center, said the center would make "The House Party Handbook" accessible to students as soon as it moves into
the Student Organizations and Leadership Development Center office on campus at the end of October or early November.
Pierron said the most important rule is to limit excessive noise.
"Noise problems are more likely to get you in trouble than anything else," he said. "Be conscious of your dealings with your neighbors. Talk to them in advance."
Lawrence police Sgt. Mike Patrick said the police department responded more to noise nuisances than any other party-related complaint.
you never want more people than you could manage yourself," he said. "So if other people are making noise on your property, the person throwing the party is responsible for making that noise."
Pierron advised students serving alcohol at parties to consider a possible legal loophole of asking for donations rather than requesting money at the door for liquor. He said this method could circumvent regulations for acquiring a temporary tavern license.
Lucy Blaney, Leawood senior, agreed with Pierron's advice of keeping parties small and said a
low-key party was more likely to be police-free than a large house party.
"If the crowd spills out to the lawn and everybody is drinking, it's easy for the cops to bust right in if they see underage drinking," she said.
Blaney said such settings were why she'd rather attend house parties than host them.
"It's too much trouble if it's your party and you're concerned about people having sex in your bedroom or throwing up in your bathroom," she said.

Sam Pierron, director of the center and Lawrence senior, said construction in the Kansas Union had delayed the center's relocation, but it would move into the Organizations and Leadership offices by the end of October or early November.
Pierron said the center would provide pamphlets and fliers about the Landlord Tenant Act, guides to living off campus and information about legal services for students with residence-related disputes.
Pierron said the center was considering creating an online database that would allow students to post comments about landlords and help them find subleaders or roommates.

Students facing flu shot say 'don't shoot'
By Justin Henning

Watkins Memorial Health Center wants students and faculty members to get a flu shot.
"As many as possible should get it before Thanksgiving," said Myra Strother, physician and chief of medical staff at Watkins.
Last year, Watkins administered approximately 2,000 flu shots to students and faculty members. Watkins officials would like this number to go up, but misconceptions about the shot seem to get in the way.
"I'm afraid of shots, and I'm afraid the flu shot will make me sick," said Katie Davis, Shawnee senior.
According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, the flu shot cannot give a person the flu. It protects against the actual flu virus, but a person may still contract other flu symptoms, such as fever, achy muscles and fatigue.

Regardless, not everyone will line up to

get a shot.
"My mom never made me get one." said Kari Schrader. Abilene sophomore.
"Besides, I don't get sick that often."
Myra said that receiving the shot also made it easier to narrow down symptoms of other illnesses students may come down with. The shot is only good for one year, because the flu virus mutates each season, making it immune to the previous vaccine. Strother said a shot now would help keep students healthy and going to class in the height of flu season.
"I'mgoing to get it sometime this week," said Ryan Glanzer, Sioux Falls, S.D., freshman. "The spread of it in the dorms will get pretty bad, so I figure it's a good idea."
The vaccine costs $10 for students and faculty. This shot is different from other Watkins services and prescriptions because it cannot be billed. Strother said making the shot billable would make it more expensive. Payments can be made by cash, check or credit card.
To make an appointment for a shot, call Watkins at 864-9500 or attend one of Watkins' Flu Shot Clinics (see break box for times and locations).

A friend of mine informed me that he recently has acquired an alligator. Unfortunately, contrary to popular belief, when he leaves the room, he does not say see you later, alligator. If I had an alligator I would say that.

P. A.
It has an interesting history and a funky, cool historic downtown area with some great stores.
Caroline Boyer
opinion@kansan.com
I love Lawrence and I've been going to the University of Kansas for four years. However, this last weekend, when my parents came with my aunt and uncle for the homecoming game, I could not complete the simple task of coming up with a good local place for us to go for dinner after the game.
There are dozens of great restaurants that can be found only in Lawrence. But when I was trying to come up with a great Lawrence restaurant, I realized I knew most of them by reputation only.
As I considered my options, I remembered that this had also happened last semester when my cousin and some friends had come for a concert.
This can be partially blamed on my indecisiveness; I probably am the most indecisive person I know. Even if I knew the restaurants around here better, I still probably wouldn't be able to decide which one I should go to.
Kind of sad and pathetic, isn't it?
However, I place most of the blame on
my lack of adventure when it comes to going out.
I'd like to try new things but I always end up at chains and fast-food places because they are cheap.
Thinking about the non-fast food and non-bar places I've been to eat lately — International House of Pancakes Chipotle, Jason's Deli, Applebee's — realized these were all chain restaurants Bambino's Italian Cafe is the only locally owned restaurant I've been to recently.
As another example, I've been told by many people that I should try The Custard Cup.
But whenever I am in an ice cream mood, I find myself at Dairy Queen or Baskin-Robbins.
I might sound like a chain store slave but I will say in my own defense that I've never ventured into the Lawrence Starbucks.
What I want to tell you all is that you should learn from my mistakes.
For the most part, this message is to the freshmen and sophomores. I hope juniors and seniors out there aren't as unadventurous as I am.
Everyone needs to experience the local stuff before going off to bigger places.
Don't get into the rut of frequenting the same old places that you can find anywhere.
This isn't meant to be an ad for the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce, but there is no reason for anyone to be as ill-informed about the place they live as I am.
If you aren't from Lawrence,you need to get out and experience this town in all its quirkiness while you still have the chance.
If you are from around here, you have a wonderful opportunity to show those not in the know all that your hometown has to offer.
Try out some of Lawrence's unique flavor and go somewhere you've never been before. This isn't limited to restaurants.
Check out museums, stores and parks. Experience what this town has to offer so you don't have any regrets after you graduate.

But copyrighted intellectual property is protected by law just as tangible property is protected. It is both immoral and illegal to steal. Downloading copyrighted music for free is the moral equivalent to shoplifting a CD from Target. Stealing is stealing, no matter what it's called.

These sites were subsequently shut down. Many such sites remain on the web, though.

is OK to steal from them.
And there are legitimate ways to download music. In response to Napster and other such sites, many record companies, including BMG Entertainment, EMI, Sony Music Entertainment, Universal Music Group and Warner Music Group, have established their own sites for downloadable music.
Computer manufacturers and music subscription services claim legitimate sites offer better sound than Napster-like sites. Some also claim there is less chance of users downloading a virus along with their music at legitimate sites.
Even poor college students have an obligation to obey the law and to respect the property rights of others. If you know that sploilfing a CD is wrong, it should follow that stealing that same music in a different way is just as immoral.
There are many ways to get music legally - buy a CD at a music store or pay a subscription fee to a site such as those run by MTVi or RioPort.
If you cry that you can't afford to buy CDs, that it's not fair, consider this: there's no such thing as a free lunch. And any time anything is stolen, it's stolen from someone else – and that's not fair.

Focused student picks up slack
New found drive proximity to sister brings student to KU
By Vonna Keomanyvong
vkeomanyvong@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Every face in the crowd and every name in the phonebook has a story behind it. Each week, Kansan writer Vonna Keomanyvong tells the story of a randomly selected RU student.
When it came to grades, Rene Galvez never did well in high school. The Los Angeles freshman said he slacked off a lot.
The 18-year-old said he was not able to get into his school of choice, which was the University of California Los Angeles because he slacked off.
Galvez learned that making it in the world took more than just high hopes.
"I wasn't too mad about it because I knew that I wasn't going to get in," Crowd Galvez said.
"When I didn't get in, it made me realize that I needed to give it my best," he said.
Since then, Galvez promised himself that he would not give up on anything else in his life, including going to a four-year university.
So, before his senior year of high school, he decided to attend the University of Kansas. Two months ago, he arrived in Lawrence, which allowed him to back up his promise and be close to his sister Thelma, who lives in Lenexa.
"I wanted to prove to myself and to my family that I could do it." Galvez said.
Thelma said that because her brother did not do very well in high school, she did not expect him to go to a four-year university.
But she said he was so determined to prove himself that he gave up going to a closer school to attend Kansas.
"He had second thoughts because he was afraid of being away from home," Thelam Galvez said. "But he decided it was more important to make it all the way to KU, even if he knew that he would be scared."
Although he does not do well in math, Galvez said he now studied an extra hour every night just to make sure that he understood the information.

Online calendars update students
By Caleb Mothweir
cnothwehr@ku.edu
Kansas staff writer
KU students now have double the options for searching on-campus activities online.
Currently, two KU activity calendars are posted on the Internet: one on the KU home page at www.ku.edu, and another, sponsored by Student Union Activities, at www.kucalendar.com.
Both are aiming toward the same goal: making information available and convenient for students.
Loren Malone, student body vice president, said her vision for kucalendar.com would include a monthly calendar where students could click on specific dates.
Malone said the calendar at www.ku.edu would be different from kucalendar.com because kucalendar.com would focus on student activities rather than academic or departmental events. In the interest of full disclosure, The University Daily Kansan currently provides on campus information for kucalendar.com.
Malone said she wanted to start an activities calendar last spring while running for office. Over the summer, Malone met with Julie Loats of University web administration to make the University online calendar more comprehensive in posting student events.
"The biggest thing now is figuring out how to work together and use it." Malone said.
Loats said when the University redesigned its Web site, changes were made to the calendar that were direct results of her collaboration with Malone.
"My understanding was that we made modifications to accommodate for the student perspective." Loats said.
In the past two months, Malone has met with representatives from SUA, and expects that changes to the Web site will be made after fall break. In the finished product, Malone said she would like to see the two calendars linked to each other.
Scott Wadley, Topeka senior, said the Web site would be helpful for underclassmen.
"They always tell you, as a freshman, to get involved."
Wadley said, "An online calendar would be great for that."
As the social/recruitment chair for the Hispanic American Leadership Organization, Andrea Pantoja said a consolidated activities Web site would be helpful in recruiting new members.
"When I first transferred here, I wanted to get involved and didn't know how," the Mission sophomore said.
Starr Slavin, Shawnee junior, said an online calendar would be more convenient than listing events in the newspaper.
"I only use the newspaper for the crossword puzzles." Slavin said.
Bush: security union requires controls
Edited by Sarah Hill
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The battle between Democrats and Republicans over labor rights for a proposed Homeland Security Department's 170,000 workers has caused a six-week impasse on Senate legislation that would create the Cabinet agency to safeguard Americans from terror at home.
President Bush wants the power to waive union agreements for national security reasons and to create a new personnel system he says would be more nimble and modern. Bush and the GOP portray a slow-footed federal civil service hamstrung by union work rules.
"We're stuck in the Senate because some senators want there to be a big, thick book of
bureaucratic regulations to tell this administration and future administrations how to run the department," Bush said yesterday at a Republican campaign rally in Waterford, Mich. "For the sake of national security, I ought to have the capacity, on a limited basis, to say, 'Our national security is more important than some collective bargaining rights.'"
The GOP said that the National Treasury Employees Union, which represents 12,000 prospective homeland security workers, sought to block the Customs Service from requiring inspectors to wear personal radiation detection devices.
At a recent fund-raiser in Boston, Bush said the union wanted to take to collective bargaining a proposal intended to prevent smuggling of weapons of mass destruction into the United States.
Bush said it would have taken more than a year to resolve the issue.
The union denies that it ever refused or tried to delay, although it certainly raised questions.
According to an exchange of letters between the union and customs officials, the union suggested on Jan. 4 that the detectors be used on a voluntary basis — as they had been for three years — and requested to negotiate.
Customs quickly rejected the idea of keeping the devices voluntary, replying on Jan. 9 that it had the power to mandate them. Later in January, the sides discussed fears about improper training and use of the detectors. In April, the union president, Colleen Kelley, told the Customs
Service the union did not object to the proposal.
"Opponents ought to have the courage not only to address the issue on its merits but to base their arguments on the facts," Kelley said.
Republicans also have cited what they call opposition by the same union to the Bush administration's color-coded terrorism warning system.
The union complained Sept. 18 that the Customs service was issuing directives related to the new system without first notifying the National Treasury Employees Union to offer an opportunity for negotiation.
The aim, Kelley said, was not to challenge the color-coded system but to ensure that Customs notified the union, as required when work conditions change.
KU dean studies political debates
By Louise Stauffer

lstauffer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Diana Carlin says political debates aren't boring, just misplaced.
Carlin, dean of the Graduate School and International Studies and professor of communication studies, has applied her research on presidential debates to help improve political debates in general.
She said one improvement would be to broadcast debates at times when the public would watch them.
PETER LANE
Carlin was recently appointed to the Board of Advisers of the Debate Advisory Standards Project. Carlin said the project was a national study on what citizens and candidates thought about the election process. She said the project's point was to develop a set of standards and guidelines on how debates should be run.
Carlin
These guidelines were developed from polls and surveys that the study conducted.
The directors of the project, sponsored by the University of Maryland, were Peter Francia of The University of Maryland and Ronald Faucheux, editor of Campaigns & Elections magazine.
Carlin said the study also found that voters want candidates to debate more than once, a format that allowed for rebuttal, and want questions that reflect the audience's interests.
Carlin said an ideal debate format would inform candidates of the debate topics ahead of time; limit the number of topics to three and allow time for follow-up questions.
She said the project also compared topics in candidates' advertising to topics of public interest.
Carlin helped prepare materials from her research, which will be published in a book. Carlin's research was an outgrowth of her interest in citizen involvement and polling, she said.
Carlin has participated in debate from high school through college. She has also coached debate and has about 15 years of research on the subject.

OLATHE — Jurors saw firsthand yesterday the lurid sexual activities they heard so much about in the first week of the John E. Robinson Sr.trial.
For nearly 40 minutes, prosecutors played a video of Robinson engaged in a sadomasochistic sex session with Suzette Trouten, a woman he's charged with killing.
Several jurors covered their eyes at least briefly from the graphic sexual content of the video, which was filmed in a hotel room. In the video, Trouten performs acts on herself and Robinson and professes her allegiance to Robinson, who was her sex master.
"The most important thing in life you are is my slave." Robinson
tells Trouten.
Suddenly, the video stops, cutting back to a scene in the children's movie, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, that had been taped over.
The video was a graphic start to the second week of the case against Robinson, 58, of Olathe. He is charged with capital murder in the deaths of Trouten, 27, of Newport, Mich., and Izabela Lewicka, 21, a former Purdue University student. Both women's bodies were found in barrels on his Linn County property in June 2000.
Robinson also is charged with first-degree murder in the death of Lisa Stasi, 19, who disappeared in 1985 and whose body has never been found. He faces three other murder charges in Missouri.
Lenexa police Detective Dawn Layman, who was part of a 30-member task force investigating the death of Trouten, testified Monday about items found at an Olathe storage locker Robinson had rented.
She said the search yielded numerous items owned by Trouten and Lewicka, including their drivers' licenses, Social Security cards, sex toys and a sixpage "sex slave" contract with 115 rules.
Also recovered were pre- addressed and signed cards that the state says Robinson intended to send to the women's family members after the women disappeared.
Friends testified last week that Trouten hid her interest in sexual bondage and discipline from her
family.
Robinson's wife, Nancy, testified that she was aware of her husband's sexual lifestyle and affairs but still loved him.
Andrew and Danuta Lewicka are expected to testify today about their daughter's decision to leave West Lafayette, Ind., to move to Kansas to be with Robinson.
In yesterday's testimony, Rita Grant, who lives next to Robinson's property in Linn County, said that in 1999, one of her cats ran into Robinson's barn. She said she was startled when she discovered Robinson digging holes in the barn's dirt floor.
Grant said Robinson was angry and told her he did not want her or her animals near the barn.
Former Cornhusker missing in Indonesia
The Associated Press
OMAHA, Neb. — Jacob Young waited by the telephone yesterday for any word about his son who had been reported missing in the area of two explosions in Bali, Indonesia, over the weekend.
"Every time the phone rings, you grab it with a little bit of hope, but nothing yet," Young said from his home in Midland, Texas.
dreds, mostly tourists.
Family and friends of former University of Nebraska football standout Jake Young anxiously waited for any news. No one had heard from the 34-year-old attorney since two blasts ripped through a popular nightspot Saturday in Bali, killing more than 180 people and injuring hun-
"We're just sitting here and waiting," Young's father said. "This is the worst part. This could go on for days."
Young, who recently was working in Hong Kong, had been in Indonesia to play in a rugby tournament. After the competition, he planned to move back to the United States to rejoin his wife, Laura, and 2-year-old son, Wilson, who recently moved to the Kansas City, Mo., area.
"He apparently was going to play one lastmatch with the rugby team," said Rep. Tom Osborne, R-Neb., Young's former coach at Nebraska.
Osborne's office was working with Young's family to relay the
latest developments from Indonesia.
Young's father said Monday that he had received an e-mail from his son's rugby club in Hong Kong that said he was still missing.
"They have people still looking. They have found nothing," he said.
Six other rugby players on the team and two fans also were reported missing. Two referees with the club were badly injured.
The State Department reported that at least two Americans had been killed and three were injured.
"We just simply know nothing further," Young's father said.
Young had been done corporate merger work while in Hong Kong
for the London-based Clifford Chance Rogers & Wells, the world's largest law firm, Osborne said.
Young was on the board of directors for the University of Nebraska Alumni Association for two years before starting a leave of absence in July 2001 to work in Hong Kong. He graduated from the university in 1991 with a degree in accounting/finance and earned his law degree there in 1994.
A native of Midland, Texas, Jake Young became the first Cornhusker offensive lineman to play as a true freshman since the NCAA restored freshman eligibility in 1972. He went on to become an Associated Press All-American center for Nebraska in 1988 and 1989.
Testimonies continue in quadruple homicide
The Associated Press
WICHITA — Toni Greene told jurors yesterday that she was just being a nosy mother when she went through the jacket pockets of a young man her teenage daughter had met at the mall days earlier.
She found a diamond engagement ring in the pocket of Jonathan Carr's leather jacket. He was sleeping on her living room couch at the time.
But it was not until later that day — when she heard on the television that an engagement ring had been stolen from the victims of a quadruple homicide that morning — that she connected the ring and the car parked outside her house with the crime.
Greene gathered her daughter, Tronda Adams, and a niece and went to a neighbor's house across the street.
"I was afraid," she testified.
She called 911.
"I told them the guy they are looking for is in my home," she said.
Jonathan Carr bolted from the house when police arrived and was arrested a short distance away just hours after his brother, Reginald Carr, was arrested at his apartment.
The brothers are on trial in Sedgwick County District Court for crimes stemming from a nine-day robbery and killing rampage in December 2000. Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty.
Yesterday, Greene identified on the witness the diamond ring she saw in Jonathan Carr's pocket that day.
It was the ring prosecutors content was the engagement ring Jason Befort planned to give his girlfriend, the sole survivor of the shootings that left four others dead.
Greene also identified the brothers as the two men who had been at her house the night earlier as well, leaving together sometime between 8:30 p.m. and 9 p.m. — just hours before two armed intruders broke into a Wichita house and abducted the five people.
The Carr brothers are being tried on a total of 113 charges, most of them stemming from the events of Dec. 14 and Dec.15, 2000, when five friends were abducted from a Wichita home, forced to engage in sexual acts and to withdraw money from ATMs before they all were shot. Four of them — Aaron Sander, 29; Heather Muller, 25; Brad Heyka, 27; and Jason Befort, 26 — died. Befort's girlfriend, then a 25-year-old teacher, survived a head shot wound, running naked about a mile to find help.
The Carrs also are being tried in the Dec. 11, 2000, shooting of Ann Walenta, 55, who later died, and the Dec. 7, 2000, robbery in which Andrew Schreiber was abducted and forced to withdraw cash from ATMs.
For more than two hours yesterday morning, family members of the four victims identified for the court items that had belonged to their loved ones and were later found in Reginald Carr's apartment when he was arrested.

Kansas quarterback Bill Whittemore tries to run past Colorado's Roderick Sneed. Whittemore led the Jayhawks' ground game Saturday, running for 121 rushing yards and a pair of touchdowns in the Jayhawks' 53-29 loss to the Buffaloes.

Kansas upbeat about Aggies
By Doyle Murphy
dmurphy@kansan.com
Kansan swordwriter
The prospect of facing the Big 12 Conference's third-ranked defense terrifies most opponents, but Kansas football coach Mark Mangino said he has plenty to be optimistic about heading into Saturday's 1 p.m. game against Texas A&M.
"We have been scoring points and getting yardage." Mangino said during his weekly Big 12 teleconference Monday. "I think we had 450 yards against Colorado, so our offense has been playing pretty well."
Throughout the last three games the Jayhawks have averaged 445 yards of total offense. But the Jayhawks (2-5 overall, 0-3 Big 12) have yet to face a defense as skilled as Texas A&M's (4-2, 1-1).
The Aggies have held opponents to an average of 284.8 yards per game this season. Last week
ATM
Baylor managed just 229 yards in its 41-0 loss to Texas A&M. The Bears totaled 479 yards against the Jayhawk defense in a 35-52 Bears win the last week.
Kansas' wide variety of receiving tar
gets should help keep the Aggies defense off balance, Mangino said.
Mangino can also take some encouragement from the success Texas Tech's Kliff Kingsbury had against the Aggies two weeks ago. Tech's run-and-gun quarterback passed for 468 yards on 48-of-58 passing in leading the Red Raiders to a 48-47 victory.
"There's no one guy on our team that has a bunch of catches," Mangino said. "I think we have seven or eight guys in double digits."
Kansas's Bill Whittemore has been effective as both a running and throwing quarterback this season. Against the Buffaloes, he lead the Jayhawks in
rushing with 121 yards on 27 carries and completed 16 of 33 passes for 217 yards.
Mangino said Whittemore's running ability is a tremendous asset for the Jayhawks, but he is concerned about the possibility of injuries to his top offensive weapon.
"If I had it my way, we wouldn't run him quite as much as we do," Mangino said. "It's been out of necessity. But I think as our pass protection gets better and the tailback run game development improves, he will do a little bit less running."

Talent scoring for women's soccer
Experience is supposed to be one of those attributes that carries a team farther than the players' talent allows. Years playing on the court, gridiron or field can give an athlete an added advantage against opponents who are bigger, faster and stronger. Game by game, though, the Kansas soccer team is proving that experience isn't as important as talent.
Freshmen and
Freshmen and sophomores account for 80 percent of the Jayhawks' goals and 71 percent of the team's points. Sure, the four starting defenders are full of experience. Senior co-captains Lindsay Hunting, Brianna Valento, Nikki Wahle and junior Lacey Woolf have provided leadership and tough play on the back line, but sophomore Stacy Leeper — who scored the Jayhawks' only goal in Sunday's 2-1 loss to Oklahoma — also provides important minutes, which will certainly increase next year.
COMMENTARY
Levi Chronister
chronister@kansan.com
Once an opponent gets past the most experienced Jayhawks, she has to try to get the ball past goalkeeper Meghan Miller. A sophomore who started 19 of Kansas' 20 games last season, Miller is second in the Big 12 Conference with a .98 goals against average. Her height — she's 5-foot-10 — and athleticism more than make up for having just one year of college experience.
There are plenty of talented young midfielders and forwards, too, which allows coach Mark Francis the luxury of juggling his starting lineup and giving everyone time on the field. Many of the Jayhawks have played on club teams in the offseason but have just a year of collegiate experience at most.

Before his time at Davidson, Hines served the athletics department at Ohio University for 10 months as assistant director in the academic and developmental services office.
In 1991, Hines graduated from Davidson, where he played football with Fagg as his coach.
"He was a tough, tough competitor," Fagg said. "You watch him and see him and you'll think he's very quiet. And he is, but when you see him reach out to people you'll see his soul. What a wonderful man."
Hines also graduated from North Carolina law school and earned a master's degree from Ohio University in sports administration.
Fagg said he would Hines and was sad to see him leave to come to Kansas.
"Terry Hines is one of the greatest people that you'll ever meet," Fagg said. "He lives by Christian principles and has a wonderful family."
Fagg said Hines came to him when he heard about the opportunity at Kansas.
"I told him it sounds really great," Fagg said. "I know Dr. Al Bohl. If you have the opportunity to get involved with Al Bohl, you'd be lucky. And you should take it."

A
After two rounds at the Marilyn Smith Sunflower Invitational in Wichita, the Kansas women's golf team has set itself up for its best finish in a tournament this fall.
The Jayhawks find themselves in fourth place, just nine strokes behind leader Kansas State. Kansas shot a 309 (21-over-par) in the first round and a season-best 303 (+15) in the second.
"Things are going really well," coach Megan Menzel said. "We are only five back of UTEP, and I think the girls know we can get over them tomorrow."
Senior Heather Rose is tied for ninth place with rounds of

In yesterday's article, "Swimming and diving team takes 4th place," there was an incorrect fact about how the KU team finished.
The article mistakenly said that the team had 10 last-place finishes.
CORRECTION
Coach Clark Campbell said in a relay event like the Big 12 Relays only the team's A relay counts as far as scoring.
"In a relay meet only the A relay scores, and the rest of the relays, like B or C, are just exhibition relays," he said. "So we just threw people together to race."
Therefore, Kansas did not have 10 last-place finishes because many of the swimmers were not on the team's A relay and did not contribute to the team's official score.
The coaches from each team had to denote which relay was their A relay before they started the race.

LINCOLN, Neb. — Nebraska quarterback Jammal Lord and Cornhusker volleyball and basketball player Greichaly Cepero were ticketed for disturbing the peace Sunday.
Officers were called to Lord's north Lincoln apartment about 3 a.m. Sunday after neighbors complained of hearing a loud noise.
When officers arrived, Cepero reportedly started screaming for officers "to take her out of there," said police spokeswoman Katherine Finnell.

Police said Cepero was grabbing at offe
cars, who also cited her for failure to obey a police order.
No one else was at the apartment.
Lord and Cepero appeared to be drunk and were taken by officers to a detoxification center where they were later released, Finnell said. Both are 21, the legal drinking age.

Buzz.com, helped lead the Jayhawks to their first NCAA tournament. Along with Leeper and Miller, forwards Monica Brothers and Rachel Gilfillan and midfielders Amy Geha, Gabby Quiggle and Lauren Williams showed potential en route to a record 13 victories and the Jayhawks' first season above .500.
Miller and Brothers were both named to the All-Big 12 newcomer team. Miller set a team record with a 1.40 goals against average, and Brothers set the Kansas freshman goals record with nine and the freshman points record with 21.
Brothers' record didn't last long, though, thanks to the class of this year's freshmen—and Caroline Smith.
The forward from Edina, Minn., leads the Big 12 Conference with 25 points, is tied for the conference lead with 11 goals, and second with 1.79 points per game and .79 goals per game. She has already set the Jayhawks' season record for goals and game-
wining goals (4). Depending on the severity of her knee injury suffered from this Sunday's loss, Smith could break the career goal record of 18 currently held by Natalie Hoogveld.
She leads a talented group of first-year players, which also includes forwards Kim Karmonta and Jessica Smith and midfielder Holly Ryder. Jessica Smith, who set Kansas high school records with 39 careergoals and 89 points at Wichita Southeast High, scored two goals and assisted on another in Friday's 6-0 victory against Oklahoma State.
Gilfillan, Ryder and both Smiths were all Miss Soccer in their senior years of high school. With the talent and ability the rest of the freshmen and sophomore classes have shown, the Jayhawks should continue to climb the Big 12 standings and qualify for many more NCAA tournaments. Just think what they can do when they have a couple more years of experience.

Slick split-second shot ices Avalanche defeat
The Associated Press
DENVER — Sergei Samsonov scored a power-play goal with just a half-second left, lifting the Boston Bruins past the Colorado Avalanche 2-1 last night.
Boston scored on its 17th power-play shot of the night after Milan Heiduk was penalized.
With the game appearing to head for overtime, Samsonov ended it with a shot from the left circle.
Despite being outshot 12-6 in the first period, the Avalanche led 1-0 on Martin Skoula's powerplay goal at 7:00.
Martin Lapointe tied it with a
power-play goal at 10:50 of the second period. With Peter Forsberg off for high-sticking, Lapointe took a pass from Joe Thornton and beat Roy from the right circle. Grahame was given the second assist.
Forsberg was whistled for a double minor for interference and unsportsmanlike conduct late in the second period. But the Bruins couldn't capitalize on the four-minute advantage.
Roy made several key saves in the third period, including a stop on Jonathan Girard on a 3-and-2 and a sprawling pad save on Jozef Stumpel.
Home run champion to play first World Series
The Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO — At long last, Barry Bonds will get his chance.
Kenny Lofton hit an RBI single with two outs in the ninth inning that sent Bonds
play on baseball's biggest stage.

The first all wild-card World Series will start Saturday night at Anaheim when the Angels take on the Giants.
GIANTS
Bonds did his part in Game Five, hitting a tying sacrifice fly in the eighth off a determined Matt Morris. And now, in his 17th season, baseball's biggest star will finally get a chance to
Bonds, often criticized for being selfish and not interacting
with his teammates, led
first player off the bench to reach him.
"We played great," Bonds said. "We've got a tough series ahead of us. The Angels have been playing great in the clutch. It's going to be down to the wire with them.
"We've got some gusty guys out here, just like the Angels," he said. "Who would've thought two wild-card teams would make it? That's just amazing."
Notes: Morris raised the ire of fans when he hit Lofton in the back with his pitch in the fourth. Plate umpire Tim Welke immediately stepped in front of Lofton, who took his time getting down to first base. ... Martinez is stuck in a 2-for-25 post-season slump. ...

and don't have any players who have, either.
Game One is Saturday night at Edison Field, with Barry Bonds hoping to succeed in his first trip onto baseball's biggest stage against the Angels, who have never been to the Series
"To be with this organization as long as I have, and to feel the emptiness of the fans all these years, and the pain and frustration, it's like we're paving a new road here," said Anaheim's Tim Salmon, who waited 11 years for this trip.
Neither team has much World Series experience, but they do have some head-tohead matchups to look back on.
For those who thought Francisco Rodriguez's first win in a major league uniform came against the Yankees in the division series, think again.
Barry Bonds and Jeff Kent didn't play in the game and even fewer regulars were around to face Rodriguez in the ninth inning.
On March 13 at Scottsdale Stadium in Arizona, Rodriguez pitched a scoreless inning to get the win in an 11-10 spring training game against the Giants.
Anaheim won all three Cactus League matchups this year. But the Giants hold an 11-5 edge in the regular season with Bonds homering five times in those games.
None of that matters now.
Bonds has waited his entire career for this moment. He was so close in 1991 and '92, when he fell one game short with Pittsburgh.
After struggling in his first five trips to the postseason, Bonds has shined this year with four homers and 10 RBIs to put himself in position for the title that would punctuate has sparkling career.
Big 12 teams now feature mobile QBs
The Associated Press
DES MOINES, Iowa — Defending a strong running game used to be pretty basic: stack a group of guys near the line of scrimmage and zero in on the tailback.
No more. Running quarterbacks have changed those schemes. Big 12 defensive coordinators know that as well as anyone, because the league is filled with nimble, fleet-footed players taking the center snap.
"If you look right now in professional football and college football, you're seeing more mobile quarterbacks this year than we've ever seen in the game of football," Texas A&M coach R.C. Slocum said Monday.
And what an advantage for a team that has such a player.
"I've often heard it said it's like having another running back in the backfield," Kansas State coach Bill Snyder said. "If your guy can throw it well, it gives you more than a running back."
A look at this week's games in the Big 12 shows the challenges the defenses will face from versatile quarterbacks.
No.2 Oklahoma,coming off a big win over Texas,has to slow down Iowa State's Seneca Wallace,whose breathtaking 12-yard touchdown run against Texas Tech last Saturday night — he covered an estimated 135 yards on the play —has become a staple on highlight shows.
"He didn't even look like he was winded when he came to sidelines," Iowa State coach Dan McCarney said.
Texas A&M must deal with Kansas' Bill Whittemore, who rushed for 121 yards against Colorado last week. Texas Tech is scheming to stop Missouri's Brad Smith, who was unstoppable against Oklahoma two weeks ago.

'Dr. Phil' fills up TV ratings
The Asssociated Press
NEW YORK — A 17-year-old runaway and her mother were face-to-face on national television, with talk show host Phillip McGraw urging honest communication to heal their rift.
He didn't offer a hug or shed a tear. Instead, he loudly lectured the distraught mom.
"She's going to be gone or dead if you don't get real," McGraw said. "Do you want your baby out of the streets and into your life? Then quit preaching and talk to her!"
Viewers are eating up the televised tough love. "Dr. Phil" has the best ratings of any new talk show since his mentor, Oprah Winfrey, debuted in 1986.
With Winfrey due to end her show in 2006, TV stations are wondering who will take her place at the top of the heap.
In the season's first week, McGraw, who has a doctorate in psychology, drew more viewers than four other new talk show hosts combined - Rob Nelson. James Van Praagh, Caroline Rhea
"Everyone knew it would be the highest rated of the new talk shows," said Marc Berman, an analyst for Media Week Online. "No one knew it would be this high."
and John Walsh
"He's not coming in as a rookie," said Roger King, whose company, King World Productions, distributes the syndicated show.
"Dr. Phil" started last month with every advantage. McGraw's once-a-week stint on Winfrey's show the past two years brought him a ready-made audience. That earned him desirable afternoon time slots in most cities, with one rule; that he couldn't be on at the same time as Winfrey.
Yet even McGraw's producers wondered how his methodical drawl would play every day.
No problem.
"I'm humbled by it," McGraw said of his early success. "And I don't say that trying to be, 'aw, shucks.' I have a lot of confidence in what we're doing."
A trained psychologist,
McGraw caught Winfrey's eye as
a trial consultant during her legal fight with the Texas beef industry. He's already parlayed their connection into a small empire; even his 23-year-old son has written a self help book.
"Dr. Phil" treads the familiar talk show terrain of unruly children, bickering spouses and the latest diseases. Instead of simply reporting, he advises people how to get out of tough spots, and his largely female audience nods through tears.
McGraw and the show's producer think viewers find his unwillingness to pull punches refreshing.
"He's the emotional compass that people need in their life everyday, and he provides the truth — two things that people need in their life on a daily basis," said Terry Wood, senior vice president of programming for Paramount TV, the show's producer.
Further proof that "Dr. Phil" has arrived: He's being mocked regularly by David Letterman.
Letterman serves up simplistic bromides to poke fun at McGraw.

Students' activities vary during fall break
By Lindsay Hanson
Ihanson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The second annual fall break at the University of Kansas starts tomorrow, and it has students itching to leave town, even if it means going home for the weekend.
Tiffany Bode, Newton junior, said the four-dav break should be extended.
"It's not really a long enough period of time to make a big trip without missing Wednesday or Monday classes," she said. "But I'm getting away from school and going home to do some free laundry."
Melanie Hepburn, assistant dean of social welfare, said she had not noticed if the break had been beneficial.
"I don't know if I've seen a difference in our students being refreshed," Hepburn said, "but it does break up the semester nicely."
However, some instructors think fall break should be eliminated. Craig Martin, professor of biology, said he opposed the extra two days off. He said it was unnecessary because of its close proximity to Thanksgiving.
"Students tend to take off a couple extra days. so it disrumbs teaching," he said.
The short time span hasn't stopped Virginia Werner, St. Louis junior, from budgeting a 16-hour, round-trip drive in her weekend itinerary. Werner, an architecture major, will head to Chicago this weekend for the second fall break in a row to visit a friend and to sightsee.
"It's a fun place with a lot of architecturally significant buildings that are worth seeing." she said.
One senior said he would use the free time to catch up on homework and on his relationship with God. Lanard Paden, of Kansas City, Kan., said he would attend a national Christian convention in Dallas to meet people with the same values.
"By chance, it fell on this weekend, so I can go," he said.
Students don't have to worry about the future of fall break for a few more years. The Board of Regents approved a slot on the University's yearly calendar for a fall break through 2007. KU does not currently have a governance committee evaluating the effectiveness of fall break.

"I'd always planned on doing that with my hair — getting it cut and donating it when I was done growing it out,"
Brenda Pollom, St. Louis senior
Edited by Katie Teske
Locks of Love
Haircuts
The haircut is a simple yet effective way to achieve a sleek, modern look. It involves cutting the hair into a neat, straight layer and applying a shiny hair color. This style is often used for balayage, which creates a gradient of colors in the hair. The haircut is also popular for those who want to keep their hair long but want to look fresh and trendy.
A good hairstyle requires practice and patience. It's important to choose the right length and cut style that fits your face and hair type. Taking time to experiment with different styles will help you find the perfect fit.
Kerry Lockes, owner of Get Ready salon, 714 Vermont St., helps Celeste Fish, Pittsburg junior; cut off her hair for charity. Lockes worked with Locks of Love, sponsored by KJHK, to cut hair on Wesoc Beach yesterday. The hair will be donated to make custom wigs for children with cancer.

In just 10 seconds, Jim Guyll lost something it took him three years to grow—his 10-inch ponytail.
As a stylist on Wescoe Beach snipped at his hair yesterday morning, Guyll, Hutchinson senior, reflected on his loss.
"The only bad thing is I'm going to a Tool concert tomorrow night and I can't headbang properly," he said.
Concert etiquette aside, Guyll and 44 other KU students and Lawrence residents helped Locks of Love, a national nonprofit group that provides custom-fitted wigs for children with hair loss due to medical conditions.
"Rock your Locks Off" was held yesterday on Wescoe Beach to collect hair for Locks of Love. The event was sponsored by KJHK 90.7 and organized by Brenda Pollom, St. Louis senior, as an assignment for her media management class. Organizing and participating in the event was a personal goal for Pollom, who is also a staff member of The University Daily Kansan.
She had been growing out her hair since her freshman year.
"I'd always planned on doing that with my hair—getting it cut and donating it when I was done growing it out," she said.
Pollom said she wanted to organize the drive since her grandmother had been diagnosed with breast cancer two years ago. She had a dream a week later that she had organized a hair drive on Wescoe Beach.
Pollom said she thought the event would be well-received.
"For most people with long hair, the reason they're growing out their hair is because they want to give it to Locks of Love." Pollom said of potential donors.

Heat costs predicted to increase this winter
By Erin Beaty
ebeatty@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Potentially cooler weather and rising demand across the country could cause significant increases in residential heating bills this winter.
The Energy Information Administration of the U.S. Department of Energy released a report this month that stated residential consumers could pay $100 to $300 more for heating bills this winter.
The main sources of energy for heat in the country are natural gas, propane, heating oil and electricity.
According to the report, Short-Term Energy Outlook, prices could increase 19 percent for natural gas, 22 percent for propane and 45 percent for heating oil if winter weather is normal.
Matt Makens, meteorologist at Channel 6 in Lawrence, said winter weather this year was expected to be warmer than average, similar to last winter's temperatures.
But heating prices could still increase because of high demand and low storages of natural gas, said Lee Allison, director of the Kansas Geological Survey and chairman of the State Energy Resources Coordinating Council.
Allison said that demand for natural gas had been dramatically increasing for the past 10 years, but that the supply had not increased as significantly to meet the demand.
Natural gas storages are low because plants that used to store the gas during the summer and use it only during the winter are now using it year-round, creating shortages during the winter, Allison said.
Problem because the economy was slow and the weather was warmer than usual, so the demand remained relatively low. But if this winter turns colder and the economy picks up, the higher demand could create the potential for higher prices. Allison said.
Curly Andrews at the National Energy Information Center said 55 percent of Midwesterners heated their homes with

Accident victim's injuries improving 'day-by-day'

Kansan staff writer
Josh Walton, Olathe sophomore, was in critical condition Monday, said his mother Cherris Walton of Olathe. Doctors at the University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, Kan., took Walton off of the ventilator Sunday, but only for a few hours.
The KU student seriously injured after a head-on collision last week with a tractor-trailer is making day-by-day improvements, his mother said.
"Sometimes he made sense and sometimes he didn't," she said. "But I think he's going to be OK."
Walton and his passenger Ryan Galemore, a former KU student, were injured early Oct. 8 after a head-on collision with a tractor-trailer going the wrong way on
"He'll be in pain for the rest of his life. But as far as the rest of him, we think he'll be OK."
Kansas Highway 10. Walton and Galemore were taken by air ambulance to the Med Center. The driver of the tractortrailer, Horace Jordan, was taken by ambulance to Lawrence Memorial Hospital and was treated and released.

had a kidney laceration and cracks in his backbones.
His mother said recovery would be a long process, and she wishes for a full recovery. The family and doctors have to wait until he is off the ventilator before they can predict the length of his recovery.
"He'll be in pain for the rest of his life," she said. "But as far as the rest of him, we think he'll be OK."
Walton's mother said a lot of family members and friends had visited her son since the accident early Tuesday morning, but because of a recent fever, visitors would be restricted until later this week.
Lt. Kathy Tate of Douglas County Sheriff's Office said deputies were still investigating the accident. After the investigation is completed, it will be forwarded to the district attorney's office.

Car catches on fire in KU parking lot
Flames engulfed a car yesterday and damaged four other vehicles in the McColum and Ellsworth parking lot, Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office said.
Jared Soares/Kansan
Bailey said officers responded to the lot at 3:10 p.m. yesterday after someone reported a 1933 blue Pontiac was on fire.
A preliminary investigation determined it was a possible electrical fire, Bailey said. He said yesterday he could not verify the owner
of the car. Estimated damage to the car or the four other cars was not available yesterday
Jeff Mueller, Buffalo Grove, Ill., freshman, said he saw what at first looked like a cloud of dust hovering over the car as he waited for the bus.
"Then I saw flames coming from the bottom," he said. "The fire was really large and the flames were huge."

Italian shooting rampage leaves seven dead
TURIN, Italy — A security guard in northwestern Italy shot and killed seven people yesterday and then killed himself, police said.
The victims, all adults, were found in two adjacent apartments in Chieri, near Turin, said Col. Filippo Ricciarelli, of the carabinieri military-police in Turin.
Police were still investigating, but a murder-suicide was suspected, Ricciarelli said.
The ANSA and AGI news agencies said the man was a security guard, and that he opened fire on family members and neighbors before turning the gun on himself.
Indonesian terrorist group disbands after Bali bombing
JAKARTA, Indonesia — Indonesian officials interrogated a security guard and another man yesterday about the deadly nightclub bombing in Bali and said traces of C-4 plastic explosives were found at the scene of the blast.
With Indonesia under increasing international pressure to combat terrorism, a violent Muslim group with ties to Indonesia's military disbanded the first apparent sign the government was getting serious about moving against Islamic extremism.
The announcement by the group, Laskar Jihad, came as the accused spiritual leader of another extremist network linked to the al-Qaida terror network said he would submit to police questioning.

'Lemonade' stands for kids' music Student's album serves up fun for all ages

Kansan staff writer
"The orange and yellow monster lived in a dragon cave;" said Victor Bailey in a dignified British accent. "He went out the back and gave a little growl. He rolled his eyes and did a little dance. And the orange and yellow monster was never seen again."
Bailey, director for the Hall Center for the Humanities, said these lines for a children's sing-along CD created by Melanie Dill. Atwood graduate student.
About 30 University professors and students contributed to Rainbow Lemonade, which was released in Lawrence last weekend.
The sing-along includes classical, blues, jazz and folk songs about how to say hello in languages such as Cantonese, Japanese and Portuguese; how a butterfly develops and how to spell the names of different kinds of toys.
Dill said children and adults could enjoy the album. She said the name was meant to convey the whimsical feel of the album.
"It's slightly trippy," Dill said. "That's part of the appeal."
Dill said she was inspired to create her first children's CD, called Alphabet Parade, three years ago after taking a music appreciation class at the University.
She said the class required students to listen to a tape that tried to get children to appreciate music.
"They were trying to be entertaining and it just failed," Dill said. "The songs were very good, but it just did not have any humor.
After the class, she said she wanted to create something that children and adults could listen
"Parents and children should interact together," Dill said. "It's important because it enhances their bond."
to together.
Dill said this album was more sophisticated than her first, and she wanted to make a song from this album into a children's book. Dill wrote 15 of the 24 songs on the album. The rest were traditional or written by friends.
Mark Boren, Lenexa graduate student, contributed his trumpet skills in the song Left and Right, which teaches children how to cross the street. He said he liked working on the CD because children would learn about classical music.
"I think it's good to introduce kids to classically oriented music," Boren said. "It seems like pop music is the dominant form in our society so it's good for kids to listen to classical instruments like the trumpet."
Rainbow Lemonade costs between $15 and $18. It can be purchased at The Bay Leaf, 725 Massachusetts St.; Borders Books Music & Cafe, 700 New Hampshire St.; The Toy Store, 841 Massachusetts St.; and the KU Bookstore in the Kansas Union.
Lana Lucas-Best, the manager of The Toy Store, said she sold 10 of the store's 18 copies of Rainbow Lemonade.
Lucas-Best said. "Melanie's first CD was one of our best-selling CDs because it was a happy children's CD. Children relate to that."
Dill said the album was important because it helped children learn.
"It's going to put people in a good mood," Dill said. "Learning is easier when it's put to music and when it's fun."

Break out the Nintendo: RAs enjoy a relaxed fall break
By Matt Stumpff
mstumpff@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
With flocks of students leaving town for fall break, resident assistants look forward to the down time spent in the residence halls.
Some RAs must stay at the halls for the break,but their duties ease as their residents vacate the buildings.
This is the second year for fall break at the University of Kansas.
"It was pretty dead here," Dies said. "Around Saturday or Sunday people started trickling in."
The Lehigh senior said he kept it simple when he had to stay at the halls during breaks.
"Watch a lot of TV. Whip out
the old N64 and play it for a while," Dies said. "Anything that doesn't involve school or work."
Dies said the student housing staff tried to keep one RA on each floor during the breaks, and RAs who stay would help monitor floors without RAs. He said he got this year's break off and planned to visit a friend at the University of Illinois.
The department of student housing typically schedules certain RAs to be on duty like any other weekend, said Diana Robertson, associate director for residence life. RAs can switch shifts if needed.
Clint Pfalser, Hashinger Hall RA, said he looked forward to his job during fall break.
"About half the floor leaves. It's very nice." the Caney senior said. "It's just a lot quieter and you don't have to deal with the stress of a lot of people."
Pfalser said overseeing fewer students also gave RAs the opportunity to better know the individual residents who stayed for fall break.
Richard Friesner, Albuquerque, N.M., junior, said he worked during last year's fall break and would be working again this year.
"I probably wouldn't have gone home anyway," Friesner said. "It's a good week to be on
duty because not too much stuff goes on."
Friesner said McCollum became significantly quieter during last year's fall break, which was conducive to the activities he took part in during the breaks.
"I sleep a lot. Watch a movie or something," Friesner said. "It's not a real exciting time."

Some RAs must stay at the halls for the break,but their duties ease as their residents vacate the buildings.

FACE-OFF
Should scholarships be only merit based?
Face-Off is a weekly project of the Kansan editorial board.
the Kansan editorial board. Each Wednesday two editorial board members will argue opposing sides of a hot-button issue that affects students at the University of Kansas. We hope that this section will help students to understand both sides of an argument and make
better decisions about thier own beliefs.
If you have a suggestion for a topic that could be used in Face-Off, or if you would like to join the editorial board, please call Maggie Koerth or Amy Potter at 864-4924. You can also email suggestions to opinion@kansan.com.
Awards should only go to the truly deserving
According to Webster's Dictionary, a scholarship is "a grant in aid to a student."
Tim Miller, professor of religious studies, said the term scholarship was used inappropriately when referring to the $1.000 awards KU First gave students at the first Kansas home football game on Sept. 14th.
Millersaid, in a Oct. 4 Lawrence Journal-World article, that he "was really appalled that KU offered these bribes called scholarships."
While Miller initially raised the issue of what constitutes something being called a scholarship, it's not the name that is the true issue.
It is the fact that $25,000 was given away by luck of the draw when there are so many KU students who deserve a scholarship because of their grades or financial situation.
Dale Seuferling, president of Kansas University Endowment Association, said the money for the scholarships was contributed by a single donor with the request that the scholarships be awarded randomly to students who wore the T-shirts at the first football game.
While it is understandable that the donor would want to promote student attendance at games, the person should have considered giving students who were unable to attend the game the same opportunity to receive money for school.
The truth is that everyone would love
to win $1,000. But many students actually would benefit from earning $1,000 based on their academic merits.
What about the students who were at the library on a Saturday evening? Should they be excluded from the winning because they were in the library?
It is understandable that KU First would use the football game as a public relations event to raise awareness about its campaign. This is an excellent public relations tactic.
Instead, why not offer 15 scholarships for $1000 to students who attend the football game, and award the rest based on an essay contest?
The problem is that students who could not attend the game, possibly because of work or study, were not eligible.
Students who spend their time studying instead of going to a football game can write a short essay on how gifts from the Endowment Association help them receive a quality education from the University.
The winning essays could then be used as promotional pieces for the association to continue to help publicize KU First.
The method of the giveaway should be revised to provide the opportunity for more students to receive scholarships based on some sort of academic credit.
Mandy German dissenting.

Lottery scholarships have a purpose
The Kansas University Endowment Association — best known by its catchy 'KU First' tag — reports on its Web site that "about two-thirds of KU's buildings and most of its land has been obtained with the help of donors."
Now, the ability of KU First to attract donations has come under attack because of a recent promotional campaign.
On Sept.14,25 $1,000 scholarships were given away to randomly chosen students who attended a football game as a KU First promotion increasing its awareness.
The game was free to students wearing KU First T-shirts. The funding for the scholarships was provided by KU First donors.
Tim Miller, professor of religious studies, was "appalled KU offered these bribes called scholarships."
He sought to pass a resolution that would deny the legitimacy of such
scholarships during a University Council meeting earlier this month.
The consequences of such sentiments are disturbing. If donors are unable to dictate the terms of their donations, then state budget cuts will become the least of the University's worries.
Miller's argument is scholarships that are not based on "academic achievement or promise, need, or conduct directly related to the academic mission of the university," are "bribes." This redefines the term scholarship.
it KU First scholarships are bribes, then so are those that are given by the KU Athletics Department.
It is also notable that, according to figures for 2000, the $25,000 of scholarships accounted for less than 0.2 percent of KU First's total scholarship contributions to the University.
Truth be known, the rumblings about the KU First scholarships have
more basis in emotion than they do in logic. The scholarships present a clear target and a conveniently remembered number.
Attacking KU First is easier than attacking the Legislature, and less painful than coming to terms with budget cuts. It is simple to lambaste a targeted and effective promotional campaign, but to do so is to miss the larger issue at hand.
KU First is an nonprofit, nongovernmental program that has managed to make substantial contributions to KU.
Throughout its history, private donors have played a major role in the expansion of prestige and increasing success of KU.
It is hardly in the best interests of the University to bite the hand that feeds it.
Greg Holmquist for the editorial board.
PERSPECTIVES
'Kansan' considering changes to puzzling crossword
The University Daily Kansan is known throughout campus for its cutting-edge sex columns and humorous Free for All. Another important function of the Kansan is its ability to keep us awake through class by means of the infamous crossword puzzle.
KU students pay a lot of attention to the crossword, a fact that becomes evident in my visits to the meetings of student groups.
In fact, the no. 1 complaint I get about the Kansan is that the crossword puzzle is too difficult.
Jay Krall, Kansan editor, understands the puzzle's importance to students.
"The crossword puzzle is one of the

most widely read, used and popular tea
tures of the Kansan every day. he said.
A
While many enjoy the challenges of strained trivia and elaborate vocabulary, there are ways to accommodate those who'd like an easier puzzle.
Currently, the Kansan receives the daily crossword from KRT Campus. This service provides newspapers with nationally syndicated stories, editorials and comics.
The Kansan pays to have access to
Laurel Burchfield
lburchfield@kansan.com
the KRT Web site. This allows the paper to choose among a variety of media items. The Kansan gets its crossword, comics and a limited number of stories and photos from KRT.
The Kansan has been running a daily crossword since Fall 2000.
The staff has not seriously looked into using a different source for the puzzle before now.
Krall said that one option might be to hire a student who would create a daily crossword.
He said that with current computer programs, doing so would not be out of the reach.
The staff is also considering publishing two daily crosswords, one more difficult than the other.
The current puzzle would not be changed so readers could still enjoy the same style of crossword.
An easier puzzle would also be added for those who are frustrated with current puzzle.
Another idea also being considered is running the current puzzle along with a different type of puzzle.
This could include printing word
searches or word jumbles.
No decisions have been made about the crossword, and Krall stresses that student feedback is vital.
If you would like to see changes made to the Kansan crossword you can drop me an email at lburchfield@kansan.com. I will forward all concerns to Krall.
Changes take time and it may be awhile before you see any changes made to the crossword.
However, students should know that the Kansan does care about what they think and is willing to make changes that will serve student needs.
Burchfield is a Basehor sophomore in journalism, education and english.

Former CEO preaches business ethics
By Aaron Passman
apassman@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Richard Halford, of Overland Park, used to eat out frequently, drive a fancy car, belong to a country club and have several credit cards, but all that changed last year when he plead guilty last year to four criminal counts.
Halford, who was charged with failure to pay income tax and violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), spoke yesterday at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union to an audience of about 100 people. He was introduced by Christopher Anderson, assistant professor of
business, who arranged Halford's visit to campus.
Anderson said he read about Halford's legal troubles in the paper and arranged his visit as part of Halford's community service requirement.
Halford's sentence included 1,000 hours of community service and five years probation.
Halfard spent most of the lecture discussing his involvement with "The Costa Rican Project," a plan to build, develop and operate a new port on the Caribbean coast of Costa Rica.
In order to facilitate the construction and development of the new port, $1.5 million in contributions was given to various Costa
Rican political parties, which Halford said was a violation of the act.
"Political contributions are considered the same as bribes in the eyes of the FCPA," he said. Halford also said that the FCPA did not differentiate between intent and action when it came to violating the act, adding that there had only been 41 successful prosecutions of the FCPA since its inception in 1976.
Halford said he felt no resentment at his punishment. He said he had come to terms with what his life was now.
"I can not too strongly tell you the effects of a thing like this on your personal life," Halford said. "It effects you socially, economically and it affects your health." Halford said since entering his guilty plea he had developed angina and had two heart bypasses. He said he supported himself now by drawing social security and working as a telemarketer.
One business student said she thought there was much to be learned from Halford's experience.
"A lot of times we don't really talk about the moral implications of the practices we're taught, so it's good to bring in someone who has made those mistakes," said Erin Eastwood, Wichita senior.

Candidate ready to increase school spending
Candidate says he will support education funding
The Associated Press
TOPEKA — Republican gubernatorial candidate Tim Shallenburger said yesterday he's receptive to large spending increases for public schools.
Shallenburger said he would set a goal of having the state spend an additional $400 million a year if legislators thought it necessary for a suitable education to each child.
He said the state might need several years to achieve such an increase.
The Republican nominee has said he won't cut education spending, despite the state's financial problems and his promise not to increase taxes.
He didn't offer specifics about where he would get the extra money.
Shallenburger has been critical of Democrat challenger Kathleen Sebelius for endorsing a consultant study that suggested the state needed to spend another $390 million a year on schools.
He had also questioned the need to hire outside consultants for a study as legislators did.
He said the state needed to conduct its own review, but yesterday he said the study was valuable.
Shallenburger spoke yesterday to about 100 superintendents and local school board members during a seminar sponsored by the Kansas Association of School Boards.
Later, Shallenburger told reporters he thought the state's
current aid, $3,863 per pupil, was reasonable and that, "I don't think we're off much" in providing a suitable education.
But he said legislators may have a different opinion, and they and his administration would have to agree on what constituted a suitable education.
"If the legislators who sit around that table tell me, 'We believe this is suitable and it's going to take us $400 million to fix it,' then that's the direction we'll move," Shallenburger said.
Sebelius addressed the same seminar separately, saying she favored giving school districts more authority to increase local property taxes while the state increased its education funding.
State law allows school district's spending to exceed the state aid it receives by up to 25 percent
"If the legislators who sit around that table tell me, 'We believe this is suitable and it's going to take us $400 million to fix it,' then that's the direction we'll move."

if they increase local property taxes.
Sebelius said she would raise that limit to 30 percent.
"We really are in jeopardy of losing quality schools in this state," Sebelius said.
Sebelius resisted her support for the legislative study on school funding.
"Can we reach that goal in a year? No," she said, "I do think it's a reasonable goal to move in that direction."
As for Shallenburger's willingness to set such a goal, Sebellius spokeswoman Nicole Corcoran-Basso said, "That's interesting. He's obviously listening to Kathleen Sebellius."
Yesterday Shallenburger told superintendents and school board members that he had never criticized the study.
"I see it as very valuable," Shallenburger said. "That's the starting place."
Later, he was asked about a remark he made earlier yesterday at a fund raiser, when he said Kansas didn't need out-of-state consultants.

natural gas and 30 percent with electricity.
Allison said natural gas was popular in Kansas because one of the largest natural gas suppliers in the country, Hugoton Field, is in the extreme southwestern corner of the state.
Scott White, assistant scientist for the Kansas Geological Survey and energy economist, said prices for most sources of heating would probably increase, but electric heating prices would most likely stay the same because they were regulated by the Kansas Corporation Commission.
Terry Wilson, senior manager for Westar Energy said its electric heating rates were set and that the company didn't expect increases in the near future.
Tai Kerbs, Phoenix senior, said the increase in heating prices was unfortunate for students, because they typically didn't have much money.

Sharon to meet Bush in Washington
JERUSALEM — Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon set out for Washington early Tuesday, hoping to hear about U.S. plans to block a possible Iraqi missile attack on Israel and to answer U.S. charges that his government is not doing enough to ease restrictions on the Palestinians.
Sharon is to meet President Bush at the White House on Wednesday, his seventh visit since taking office in March last year.
A few hours before leaving, Sharon called on the Palestinians to replace their current leadership, a reference to Yasser Arafat.
However, he added: "I assess that there is a real possibility that
"Your terrible suffering is needless," Sharon told the Palestinians during a speech to Israel's parliament. "Blood is being spilled for nothing. Change the despicotic regime that is leading you from failure to failure, from tragedy to tragedy."
"Blood is being spilled for nothing."
Ariel Sharon Israel prime minister
the coming year will be a turning point. I believe that our Palestinian neighbors will themselves reach a moment of change in their attitude toward Israel."
Sharon said his government would be "alert to any sign of change ... to make peace."
Bush, in a June speech, also called on the Palestinians to change leaders.
The Palestinians have tentatively scheduled general elections in January — but Israel's occupation of West Bank cities has raised questions about whether the balloting can take place.
Palestinian Cabinet Minister Ghassan Khatib said he hoped Bush would try to convince Sharon to resume Israel-Palestinian negotiations.
They think that they should
achieve by force whatever objectives they have and the Americans have to convince them that this is not working at the moment," Khatib said. "So far we didn't notice at all any American seriousness," he added.
In the run-up to a possible military campaign in Iraq, the United States wants Israel to refrain from high profile operations in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, liable to inflame Arab and world anger at Israel and its chief ally, the United States, diplomats have said.
Sharon spokesman Raanan Gissin denied media reports that while in the White House Sharon would notify Bush of plans for a major Gaza offensive.
"That's total nonsense," he said.
An Israeli official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Israel had no intention of launching a broad-scale Gaza incursion and would not give the Americans advance warning even if it had such plans.

Performers emphasize the means, not end, of music
New group brings on guitarist, drummer, puts finishing touches on debut album
Story and pictures by Jared Soares

Kansan staff photographer
Lawrence is home to many fledgling music groups. Conner is one band that is making waves in local rock clubs with its sound and live show reminiscent of The Stooges and The Velvet Underground. This stripped-down version of rock'n roll, with more emphasis on playing the music than on the actual production, is daily gaining popularity with bands such as The Hives, The White Stripes and The Strokes. Feedback mixed with Beach Boy Brian Wilsonesque melodies form catchy riffs that create the garage-rock sound. Conner falls into that genre of music well with their fast-paced melodic songs.
The lineup for Conner has made a few changes.
The four-piece band now consists of guitarist James Duft, Lawrence sophomore; bassist Phil Bonahoom, Lawrence resident; and two new musicians. Andrew Connor and Bryce Boley. Connor, Sioux Falls, S.D., senior, entered the studio as the second guitarist in early October to start recording the band's full length debut album. Boley, Lawrence resident, replaced the previous drummer, who left the band to go to school in Boston. With these two additions, Conner is putting the finishing touches on its album, which it is recording at Underground Sound, 1904 Barker Ave. It does not have a name for the album yet and does not know when it will be released.
Here are scenes from one of Conner's early October recording sessions at Underground Sound.

Mangino prepares struggling players for Texas A&M
Kansan file photo
Kansas defenders wrap up Colorado running back Bobby Purify. Purify carried the ball 10 times for 76 yards against the Jayhawks last Saturday. Kansas defense has allowed over 26 points per game and ranks last in total defense among Big 12 teams. Coach Mark Mangino said he wanted more intensive contact drills to help prepare the team for Texas A&M on Saturday.

Kansan sportswriter
In the last three games against the University of Tulsa, Baylor University and the University of Colorado, the Kansas football team has dug itself early holes by falling behind in each game by two touchdowns in the first quarter.
Being outscored 65-16 in the game's opening quarter has been an unwelcome trend for the Jayhawks and coach Mark Mangino, who said he had taken steps to eliminate his team's inability to grab early momentum.
"We're going to start our practice with a little more intensity." Mangino said during yesterday's press conference. "We changed the stretch routine and what we do in the first half hour of practice."
Mangino said that the team would go through its routine teaching sessions, then it would move directly onto intensive contact drills.
The emphasis put on more contact drills is directed at a Kansas defense which has allowed more than 26 points per game and ranks last among total defense in the Big 12 conference.
been mirrored in the last three games when the Jayhawk defenders have surrendered more than 40 points per game.
Much of the defense's struggles have
Kansas defensive coordinator Bill Young said the problem emerged from his defense's inability to eliminate the
other team's big plays on offense, such as the long ground gains Colorado running back Chris Brown had in Saturday's game.
"We had 40 other rushing plays where we gave 121," he said. "There's no way you can win a game giving up 306 yards on eight plays."
Young said Colorado had eight plays for 306 yards this weekend.

Dyer returns to field as safety

Zach Dyer might start for Kansas against Texas A&M Saturday. No, not at quarterback — junior Bill Whittemore has that spot locked up. Dyer has switched to the other side of the ball.
Dyer, a junior from Olathe, started four games at quarterback last season, while splitting time with Mario Kinsey, who has since left the team. This season, he started the Kansas' opener at Iowa State University.
He was soon relegated to the sidelines after completing 6-of-14 passes for 50 yards and throwing an interception in the first half.
He did not take another snap until he replaced Whittimore late in the second half of Kansas' 43-33 win against the University of Tulsa.
Kansas coach Mark Mangino said he approached Dyer about moving to free safety and special teams in order to
"It's kind of nice being a hitter instead of the hittee."
Zach Dyer
Former quarterback and current safety
return one of his best athletes back to the playing field.
"He's an impressive guy," Mangino said yesterday. "My only regret is that we didn't do this a while back."
Dyer would have made the move sooner, but the Kansas coaches were concerned about losing him as an option at quarterback if Whittemore were injured, Mangino said. Senior reserve Jonas Weatherbie has become Whittemore's backup, but if both are injured Dyer will return to quarterback, Mangino said.
In his defensive debut against the University of Colorado, Dyer was involved in eight tackles, including three solo stops.
Despite practicing at his new position for only two weeks and playing in
one game. Dyer will definitely get a lot of playing time Saturday, defensive coordinator Bill Young said.
"He's picking it really well," Young said. "He's an intelligent kind of guy."
He spent his Olathe South High School career playing both quarterback and free safety.
Playing defense is not a foreign concept for Dyer.
"I've always been a football player and I've played defense all my life until I came to college," Dyer told reporters. "It's a lot of fun just to be back out on the field and playing, whether it is defense or offense."
He hasn't given up on offense yet.
He said he would be ready to step back into his quarterback role if needed, but he enjoyed delivering blows to those he used to consider colleagues.
"It's kind of nice being a hitter instead of the hittee," he said.

Volleyball prepares to pelt purple
Jill Dorsey despises purple. Not sure if grape gum, Barney and orchids are included in that. But, for a volleyball player from Wellsville, it's overwhelmingly evident what she means when discussing her hatred of the color.
"I hate purple," Dorsey said. "Kansas State has been a rivalry for so long, and we want to beat them so bad. There's bragging rights there, and we have to gain some back."
Jill was 11 the last time Kansas defeated its in-state rival.
Current teammate Abbie Jacobson was 12, but her mindset towards the Wildcats was slightly altered from Dorsey's. Jacobson grew up in St. Mary's, which is 30 minutes from Manhattan, around Kansas State fanaticism. She was taught to love purple. Her family needed a little convincing when she committed to Kansas three years ago.
"I definitely became a Jayhawk during my freshman year, but it took some time. My parents needed some more time to get used to it, I think," Jacobson said with a laugh. "But now, I want to be them badly just like everyone else."
Dorsey, Jacobson and the rest of the Jayhawks may feel hatred for the Wildcats, but they won't have history on their side as they enter one of the biggest

matches in recent Kansas history.
For seven years, bragging rights have been at stake in the Kansas-Kansas State volleyball rivalry, and, in every of the 14 matches over that time, those bragging rights have traveled back to Manhattan with the Wildcats.
Kansas State has flat out annihilated Kansas in its last five matches in Lawrence, four of them being sweeps.
All signs point toward a ho-hum Kansas State victory.

Students vie for men's basketball team walk-on spots

Fifty-five Jayhawk hopefuls showcased their basketball skills this week in hopes of fulfilling the dream of playing college basketball in Allen Fieldhouse.
Kansas men's basketball walk-on tryouts began this week, from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday and Monday.
"This is my second year trying out," said Marpray Monson, Chicago sophomore "Everybody knew that last year they weren't going to take anybody."
Some know all too well the disappointment tryouts can bring.
Ben Miller, men's basketball assistant coach, made no cuts after the first workout, but only 45 returned for day two.
Monson said he had been skipping classes to practice and had been working day and night to prepare for tryouts. He spent most of his time playing pick-up games.
D. J. Watkins, Lawrence freshman, said he had

been running and conditioning to get in shape.
"The Jayhawks' practices are extremely intense, and I think if I had the chance to play, I'm in shape enough to do it." Watkins said.
Watkins said Williams' presence affected the players and made things more hectic.
Coach Roy Williams watched the tryouts from the bleachers for the first hour Monday.
"You could tell there was definitely a feeling that swept over everyone,a little bit of nervousness and everyone kind of became more alert and more anxious." Watkins said.
Wayne Simien, sophomore forward, and Jeff Hawkins, freshman guard, both watched tryouts Monday night. They had their eyes on certain players.
"I know one name-- Brett Olson," Hawkins said. "They say he's been trying out every year. He makes it to the final cut every year. I watched him play a little bit. He's got some real good passing moves. I think we could use him."

Women's golffinishes third
Senior Rose leads team with seventh-place finish
The Kansas women's golf team tied for third place at the Marilynn Smith Sunflower Invitational with a third-round score of 312 (25-over-par). It was the team's best finish of the season, and the Jayhawks' three-round total of 924 (60-over-par) was also a season best.
Even with the top-three finish, Kansas coach Megan Menzel said she didn't think the team had played up to its potential after the team's nine-stroke drop from Monday's second round at the par-72 Willowbend Golf Club in Wichita.
"We did not play our best today, but we played well enough." coach Megan Menzel said. "It was very windy today. I think that we struggled in the four spot but we managed to do a bit better than some of the other teams."
Kansas senior Heather Rose finished in seventh place with a three-round total of 226 (10-over-par), which was a career best. Jennifer Bawanan also carded a career-low score for three rounds. The
"Jennifer and Heather had their best tournaments ever and I feel that we are continually improving," Menzel said. "All of the girls are starting to play solid for us."
Competing as an individual, senior Kristy Straub shot a season-best 237 (+21) and tied for 38th. Freshman Chelsey Pryor tied for 47th with a total of 239 (+23), and freshman Kendall Schwerman tied for 68th with a 247 (+31) as an individual.
Tiffany Kruggell finished the Jayhawks scorecard with a three-round total of 248 (+32), trying for 71st.
junior shot a 12-over-par 228, finishing in eighth place.
Senior Jill MacDonald finished in a tie for 20th place with a season-best total of 231.
Kansas State won the tournament with a total of 903 (+59), and Randi Gauthier of North Texas won the individual title with a total of 222 (+6). Gauthier won a playoff with Christine Boucher of Kansas State.
The Jayhawks' final tournament of the fall will be the Rainbow Wahine Invitational, Oct. 29-30 in Honolulu.
Kansan staff report
Nebraska quarterback faces charges
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — Nebraska quarterback Jammal Lord will start Saturday at Oklahoma State despite being charged yesterday with disturbing the peace.
Coach Frank Solich said yesterday that Lord would be disciplined, but the misdemeanor ticket did not warrant any sort of suspension.
Nebraska volleyball and basketball player Greichaly Cepero, who was at Lord's apartment when police were called to it about 3 a.m. Sunday, was cited with disturbing the peace and failure to obey a police order.
"I know that Jammal was issued one ticket. There was cooperation from that point on to my knowledge," Solich said. "The system that we have in place and probably most systems around the country would not kick a young man out of playing or a starting role."
City prosecutor John McQuinn said charges were filed against both athletes yesterday. Cepero was also charged with failing to obey a police order. The charges are misdemeanors with maximum fines of $500 and up to six months in jail.
Police said Cepero, who had asked officers to take her home, later grabbed at officers' arms and pushed one officer away from Lord.
Volleyball coach John Cook announced yesterday that Cepero would not play Wednesday night when the Cornhuskers play at Oklahoma.
"Right now we are learning lessons that have nothing to do with winning and losing," Cook said. "This is about being responsible and upholding the
values of Nebraska volleyball."
Cepero, voted the American Volleyball Coaches Association Division I Player of the Year after leading the Huskers to the 2000 national championship, has missed just one match in her career.
Cook said Cepero would be entering a diversion program to take care of her legal problems.
The tickets were issued hours after Lord led Nebraska (5-2) to a 24-13 win over Missouri and Cepero and the Huskers beat Iowa State 3-0. The players, who are both 21, spent the rest of the night in a detoxification center but were not cited with any alcohol-related offenses.
Both Cook and Solich were clearly concerned that alcohol was involved for two players during the season.
"I did talk to our team as a whole yesterday about alcohol in general and the problems that exist," Solich said. "It seems like a good share of those come from the use of alcohol. It's a problem that's on every campus in this country."
Lord has not spoken with reporters for three weeks. He had five turnovers in consecutive losses to Penn State and Iowa State and was on the verge of losing his starting job, but appeared to be back on track by leading the Huskers past McNeese State and Missouri.
His legal problems aren't likely to get him to open up again any time soon.
"Any time I've seen a player that has been involved in any type of incident that reflects badly on himself and on the program, they have all taken that to heart." Solich said. "Certainly Jammal has also done the same."
FOOTBALL
Broncos' Kennedy suspended for committing injury foul against Miami's Chambers
DENVER—Broncos' strong safety Kenoy Kennedy was suspended by the NFL for one game without pay yesterday for his helmet-to-helmet hit on Miami receiver Chris Chambers.
Chambers got a concussion when he went up high for a pass and was hit in the face by Kennedy.
Kennedy was flagged for a personal foul and tried to apologize to Chambers as he walked off the field, but he was pushed back by Miami's Randy McMichael.
The league warned Kennedy that future hits similar to the one on McCraary could lead to a suspension.
Kennedy has already been fined twice this season and received a warning from the league last week.

Kansas' volleyball team, coming off a 3-0 sweep of Baylor Saturday, will take on rivals K-State and Missouri over fall break. The Hawks are currently 14-2 overall and 5-2 in the Big 12 conference.
'Hawks to clash with Big 12 rivals
By Jason Hwang
jhwang@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
The Jayhawks, coming off a 3-0 sweep of Baylor on Saturday, will play traditional rivals Kansas State today and Missouri Saturday.
Kansas (14-2 overall, 5-2 Big 12 Conference) will host the Kansas State Wildcats (9-6, 5-2 Big 12) at 7 tonight in the Horejsi Family Athletics Center. Kansas then travels to face the Missouri Tigers (14-2, 4-1 Big 12) at 7 p.m. Saturday at the Hearnes Center in Columbia, Mo.
"Every game is a big game," said senior middle blocker Kylie Thomas. "But against these two rivals if we can take both these games, it will put us in really good position in the Big 12."
The Wildcats have not lost to the Jayhawks since 1994, winning all 14 matches in that time, including 3-0 sweeps in the last four meetings. Kansas State has
won its last three conference matches, including a 3-1 win over Colorado on Saturday at home.
Kansas coach Ray Bechard said Kansas State has good balance in the middle and left side. Senior outside hitter Jennifer Pollard, junior middle blocker Lauren Goehring, and junior outside hitter Cari Jensen lead the offense, each averaging more than 2.8 kills pergame.
"I don't think we can put too much into what happened in the past," Bechard said. "It's a reflection of K-State having good teams in the past."
Second-year Kansas State coach Suzie Fritz was a setter for Bechard from 1990-1991 when he coached Barton County Community College to back-to-back final four appearances at the NJCAA tournament.
"Each year going into the match, we have to respect K-State because they're a great team and we know they're going to do great things on the court," senior
defensive specialist Jaime Morningstar said.
The Jayhawks dropped to third in the conference in team hitting percentage (.278) after the victory against Baylor, but remain in second place in kills (16.73), assists (15.19), and service aces per game (1.96).
Sophomore middle blocker Ashley Michaels's .412 hitting percentage remained atop Big 12, and freshman setter Andi Rozum moved up to second in Big 12 with 12.63 assists per game.
"Whether we win or not, as long as we give good effort I know that enough our team will be happy," Morningstar said. "But it would be such an amazing feat to come out with a win over K-State."
The all-time series versus Missouri has been close, with the Tigers leading 53-52. Bechard is 4-4 all-time against Missouri, and the teams split their matches last year with each winning on its opponent's home court. In
Kansas' 3-1 win at the Hearnes Center, junior outside hitter Sarah Rome registered 17 kills and 15 digs.
Missouri has had its best start since 1982. After losing two consecutive conference games, the Tigers won Saturday at home against Oklahoma.
Tigers' redshirt freshman outside hitter Shen Danru is sixth in the Big 12 with 3.95 kills per game. Junior outside hitter Mary Lauren Smith's 3.80 kills per game rank her eighth in the Big 12 and senior middle blocker Christi Myers 3.76 mark puts her in ninth.
"You got to approach these matches like any other matches. Execution is just as important against any other team," Bechard said. "We got to stick to what got us here. Eventually there will be key times when someone has to make plays, hopefully we pull through."
Senior soccer women featured in last home game

Valento, Wahle Hunting and Jones wrap up season against Iowa State on Sunday
Four seniors will play their last home soccer game at Kansas on Sunday.
Brianna Valento, Nikki Wahle and Lindsay Hunting, the first three players to play their entire career under coach Mark
Francis, came into the program during Francis' first year on staff. That team went 8-10-1, which was the winningest season the Jayhawks had to that point.
During the 2001 season, the three seniors saw Kansas have its first winning season (13-7) and make it to the NCAA Championships for the first time before losing to BYU 1-0 in the tournament.
The fourth senior on the squad midfielder Brooke Jones, transferred after her sophomore season from the University of
Nebraska.
"The seniors have stepped up in a big way this season," Francis said. "They all step up at different times and provide leadership and guidance for our team."
The seniors' last game will come against a Cyclone team with a record of 5-7-1 and a conference mark of 2-4.
The team,coached by first-year coach Rebecca Hornbacher, dropped a pair of 1-0 games to Colorado and No.23 Nebraska last weekend.
Offensively, the Cyclones are led by sophomore midfielder Nikki Gamble, who has 11 points this season. Sophomore Karen Hasselman has taken over the goaltending duties during the past four games and has a 1.50 GAA.
Central Missouri State (6-7) is led by juniors Taleshia Joseph and April Reyes, who both have seven goals on the season.
The Jennies are anchored by freshman goalie Stephanie Reyes who has 1.22 goals against average in 808 minutes of action this
season.
The Jayhawks beat Oklahoma State 6-0 on Friday and lose to Oklahoma 2-1 on Sunday.
"In our conference every weekend is a big test for us." Francis said. "You need to be ready to play every game or else you will lose."
Kansas gets a one-game break from its brutal conference schedule this weekend to play Central Missouri State on Friday at 4 p.m. at SuperTarget Field.
The Jayhawks will then return to conference action at 1 p.m.
Sunday as they host Iowa State in their last home game of the season.
The Jayhawks are 9-3-2 and tied with Missouri for fourth place in the conference at 3-2-1. The Jayhawks will travel to Columbia to take on the Tigers on Nov. 1. But no one is looking ahead.
"Coming off a tough loss like we are, we need to come out this weekend and play hard and get some momentum," Francis said.

Texas A&M enters Saturday's game on an offensive roll after sophomore quarterback Dustin Long replaced Mark Farris in the season's third game.
Football CONTINUED FROM 1B
During the last three games Long has led the offense to nearly 40 points per game, and the Aggies have won two of those games.
Although the Aggies lost that game 13.3 to third-ranked Virginia Tech, the A&M offense has been on a roll ever since.
The only loss was a heartpounding 48-47 overtime loss to Texas Tech on Oct. 5 in College Station, Texas.
Combine the struggles of the Kansas defense with the improvement of the Texas A&M
offense, and Mangino knows his offense will have to adjust quickly to the Aggie defense, which is fourth in the Big 12 and 12th in the nation.
Mangino said the speed and overall ability of the Colorado defense last week prepared his offense for the Aggie defense.
it's pretty impressive." Mangino said.
"I don't think overall they have quite the team speed on defense that Colorado has, but
If the game comes down to special teams on Saturday, Kansas will strive to have the edge with senior Curtis Ansel, who is averaging more than 41 yards per punt along with 16 punts that have been downed within the 20 yard line.

"We need big guys right now," he said. "It will be unfortunate for some of the young guys that won't make it, but they're out here working hard and it's just good to see that."
Hawkins said Watkins was also a solid player and a good shooter.
Coach Miller posted a list of 18 players who made first cuts on the wall of Allen Fieldhouse at noon yesterday, and hopefuls trickled in to see if they were invited back for another day.
Watkins name appeared on the list. So did Olson's. Monson's did not.
elsewhere because he wanted to play at Kansas.
Mike Crawford, St. Louis junior, did not make cuts. He was more surprised about other players than himself.
Monson and the two friends he brought with him walked away in disbelief. Another year, another disappointment for Monson.
"Marpray ain't on here," he said. "He was one of the best players out there. I can't believe half these guys made it."
"My name ain't on here," he said. "What?"
Some entered cautiously afraid to see the list that determined their fate. Others charged the list and scurried away.
Caleb Howard, Grand Prairie, Texas, sophomore, was surprised to see his name and said he hadn't played his best because of an injured toe. He
left, but quickly returned to check for his friend's name.
"My boy Mitch (Brown) isn't on there," he said. "He played real well. Some guys were playing dirty."
Those who made the first cut began making preparations for yesterday's 8 p.m. tryout. They said they would nap, eat carbohydrates and try not to think too much about the night ahead.
Joey Koerner, Ness City junior, said he would focus on playing good defense.
"I think that's what the coaches are looking for," he said. "They already have all the scorers they need."
Koerner said his background playing for Garden City Community College probably helped him make it through first cuts. He turned down scholarships
Coach Miller said he knew some information about players before tryouts because high school coaches, Kansas players and hopefuls would try to sell certain players. Miller said he looked for overall basketball skills and positive attitudes, but experience gave players an edge. He said the worst part for him was having to cut down the list.
"I told the guys the only failure is the one who fails to try," Miller said.
Miller did not know how many players he would keep or when he would know which players would make the team. Tryouts continued last night at 8 p.m.

Except this Kansas volleyball team is far improved and ready for a breakout match. The Jayhawks are confident this year as they enter the match tied for third in the Big 12 with the Wildcats at 5-2. They have exhibited all the qualities of a successful team. They went on the road for a big win, defeating then-No. 23 Colorado. They have refused to play
takes Jacobson and Sarah Rome give Rozum more offensive outlets to feed. Senior defensive specialist Jennifer Kraft should break the school record for aces tonight.
In 16 games, coach Ray Bechard has seen a team flowing with talent blossom into a collective force. Freshman setter Andi Rozum stepped in and made an immediate impact. Middle blockers Josiane Lima, freshman, and Ashley Michaels, sophomore, rank in the Big 12's top 10 in attack percentage and form one of the best 1-2 punches in the Big 12. Junior outside hit-
down to inferior competition. They have not lost a match at home all season.
Past Kansas teams have attempted to rely on one or two players to carry the load. This Jayhawk squad works together, knowing that the individual star of the game can be any of the team's players.
That is what sets this team apart from the previous seven
that lost to Kansas State. Bechard knows this. He stresses unity and chemistry with his team and tonight it could pay off.
A victory over Kansas State would not only help his team's moral, Bechard said, it would assist in future recruiting.
All it will take is an effort consistent with Kansas' 16 other games. And a little bit of purple hating.

Cross country tries national course
Invitational will give runners first look at challenging teams
The Kansas cross country team will compete Saturday at the NCAA Pre-Nationals Invitational in Terre Haute, Ill.
The meet is hosted by Indiana State and will take place at the LaVern Gibson cross country course. This meet will give coaches and runners a look at the course of the 2002 NCAA National Championships.
"If we do well, it will give us a chance to go to nationals," junior
Abraham Kimeli said. "It's a chance for us to know where we stand compared to other teams."
If Kansas is able to beat quality teams, the Jayhawks could receive an at-large bid, taking the pressure off of qualifying at the Nov. 16 Midwest Regional in Normal, Ill.
As of yesterday, 91 men's teams and 97 women's teams have signed up to compete in the event. With so many competitors, the meet will be divided up into three races for the men and three races for the women. The NCAA Cross Country sub-committee will seed the runners and divide the programs evenly into the first two
races. Teams will only be allowed to enter seven runners in the seeded races. The third race will be an open race for all other runners. Kansas will take 12 men and 12 women to Terre Haute.
Seven Big 12 teams will run in Terre Haute this weekend. The women's team has beaten every Big 12 rival they have faced so far. The list includes Kansas State, Texas Tech, and Oklahoma State. The men finished behind Oklahoma State at last week's OSU Cowboy Jamboree, but beat Texas Tech. The men beat Kansas State on Sept. 14 at the Wildcats' home invitational. The men's 86 races will run at 12:10 p.m., 12:50 p.m.

Sooners ready to play Cyclones on Saturday
The Associated Press
NORMAN, Okla. — The question comes up every year after Oklahoma plays Texas: Will the Sooners suffer a letdown after such an emotional game?
Coach Bob Stoops' answer has always been the same: no.
"I hear people talk about a Texas hangover. I kind of chuckle it," he said.
But under Stoops, Oklahoma has been unaffected by a post-Texas haze.
"We have played some of our
best football in our four years here — three years, anyway — after this game." Stoops said.
The Sooners have won three in a row against Texas.
"I mean this in a very polite way — this isn't the first time we've beat Texas, so there's nobody running up and down our halls or players in the locker room all silly and giddy about it." Stoops said.
Iowa State is off to its best start in 64 years and is ranked in the Associated Press top 10 for the first time in history.

NEW YORK—On Fine Living network, there's no Robin Leach in sight.
'Fine Living' shows life changes
This new cable channel doesn't define 'fine living' in terms of being rich and famous. Nor is it gauged by snob appeal.
Instead, the Fine Living network operates on the premise that since changes to a better life can't be bought but must be chosen, viewers benefit from better-informed choices.
The Associated Press
"Everybody, regardless of economic category, is looking to improve the way they live, and a lot of that process is about information rather than money," said Ken Solomon, Fine Living's president.
Owned by Scripps Networks, Fine Living sticks to the model of sister channels Home & Garden Television, Food Network and Do It Yourself Network. It claims a broad category with potentially wide appeal, then divides that subject into areas of interest — adventure, personal space, transport, favorite things and every day.
The Los Angeles-based operationairs 16 half-hour series including "The Great Adventure" (offbeat yet plush vacations); "The Genuine Article" (the best buy in products and services); "Radical Sabbatical" (profiling people who make a major life change to pursue their passions); and "Back to Basics" (sharing secrets to making life less stressful and more enjoyable).
Fine Living signed on last March. Burdened by the dismal advertising market and the ailing economy, it was a weak moment to start any business venture.
Was the network really ill-timed? On the contrary, Solomon said.
"Now more than ever, people realize that success isn't its own reward," he said. "They're looking for balance and ways to streamline their life. Americans are no longer just giving lip service to the notion that 'today is the first day of the rest of my life.' That's what we're about."
Watching the channel will certainly get you thinking, even dreaming.
When you meet the woman who built her oceanside home with a glass floor that looks down on the water, or meet the man who left his dreary career to start a winery, you may find your reaction isn't, "So that's how you do it," but also, "What new thing would I like to do?"
But will Americans' heightened need to rethink their priorities lend urgency to Fine Living as a resource?
Will a particular interest—be it travel, vintage cars or a simplified lifestyle — translate into loyal viewing of the series devoted to that topic?
It's a little early to tell. But at least one media analyst declares Fine Living a valuable arrival on the TV landscape.
"Reassessing what's important in your life and making changes — that's hot right now," said Brad Adgate of Horizon Media. "The Fine Living Channel might be helpful doing it."

SPORTS COMMENTARY BY DOYLE MURPHY
Ok, they both might have
'Kick the Kansan' continues to amuse
The three of you who read my column religiously might remember my promise of a perfect record last week. Well, someone who works at the The University Daily Kansan delivered on that promise.
The Kansan's other football writer, John Domoney, a.k.a. The Football Prophet, became the first person in Kick the Kansan history to forecast all 11 games correctly. Maybe I'm being insure, but that seems like he is trying to undermine my 8-3 record. To further discount my football knowledge, Domoney's girlfriend, Courtney Olson, Wichita junior, posted the second-best entry of the week at 10-1.
proved to be better at this than me, but I'm still taller.
Now that I've dealt with any insecurity issues, let's move on to other smarter — but shorter — entries.
David Franklin, Omaha, Neb. junior, earned a spot on this week's panel by picking a respectable 9 of 11 games correctly. He pointed to the Oklahoma University versus Iowa State University game as the most difficult pick this week.
"We'll find out if Iowa State is for real this week." Franklin said.
Another member of this week's panel is Bob Barker, Lenexa junior, who beat me in football predictions 9-2, but he tied me in another category. Barker is the
first person I've met with a name as likely to be linked to an Adam Sandler movie as mine. After speaking with him, I'm sure Barker has heard "Price is wrong, bitch!" just as many times as I have heard "O' Doyle rules!"
Believe it or not, he has also heard any *The Price is Right* jokes you might care to make.
"It brings a smile to my face," he said. "But it's not really funny anymore."
So what game show, I mean game—sorry—gave Barker the most trouble this week?
"Probably the Trinity Bible game," he said, "I had no clue."
That makes two of us, Bob. But don't worry. It's not like this is for the showcase or anything.

IS GOD CALLING YOU AND GETTING A BUSY SIGNAL?
In today's world, it's so easy to lose sight of why we're really here. So perhaps the thought of devoting your entire life to God has never crossed your mind.
Then again maybe it has. Maybe you're one of the rare women who are being called by God to follow in the footsteps of Jesus. And if you'd only take a moment to really listen to your inner voice, God will get through.
we are the Sisters of St. Joseph, an international order with roots right here in Wichita. And we invite you to come live a life of holiness, in a community where we strive for unity and reconciliation among all people with God and with one another. Ours is a community of prayer and service. Our dedication to God motivates us and is the source of joy for all that we do.
THE SISTERS OF ST. JOSEPH OF WICHITA
But how can you know if you truly have been called? Do you feel a longing for more in your life? Do you feel a void in your heart? Do you radiate joy? Does love pour out of your smile and do you long to follow Jesus?
If so, you owe it to yourself to answer God's call. To learn more about The Sisters of St. Joseph, call or visit us online. You'll be eternally grateful you did.

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Kansas plays well at times against Texas A&M but loses p.1B
Greek actions misconceived
By Todd Rapp
trapp@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Fraternities and sororites often have mandatory activities for their members that some may consider hazing, because members face consequences when they are absent.
According to the University of Kansas code of student rights and responsibilities, hazing includes any action or situation where the safety or welfare of a student is recklessly, negligently or intentionally endangered. Other aspects of hazing include situations that cause mental or physical discomfort, personal servitude, excessive fatigue and any action that interferes with the academic requirements or responsibilities of a student.
If a complaint is filed against an organization, it can admit to the violation or it can appeal and face a hearing with University officials and the plaintiffs. If the organization is found guilty of the violation, then University sanctions are placed upon the organization, and it must undergo an education process about hazing and meet certain requirements at a later date to redeem itself.

People don't realize the difference between responsibilities inherent in organizations and making people do things they do not want to, said Angie Carr, coordinator for fraternity and sorority life.

FERNANDO SCHOLL
Jennifer Hutsell, president of Kappa Kappa Gamma, said students should realize that events were voluntary responsibilities members took when they joined the chapter.
Each greek chapter has its own hazing policy and definition,but all chapters must adhere to the host university's policy. The most common consequence is a monetary fine.
Regardless of the consequence, Carr said all members of the chapter were subject to the responsibilities and therefore consequences.

Students interested in discovering the mystery behind why the KU basketball team is historically successful while the KU football team struggles can learn the explanation by enrolling in Myth, Legend and Folk Beliefs in East Asia, taught by Wallace Johnson.
Johnson, an East Asian Languages and Cultures professor, teaches his students that it's all a matter of yin and yang, or bad chi and good chi.
Chi is energy and a central
Cn is energy and a C coel element of Feng Shui, the Chinese way of living in harmony with nature.
Johnson says that bad chi comes from the north, so in Lawrence it hits the north side of Mount Oread, and bounces into Memorial Stadium, causing negative energy for the KU football team.
The good chi comes from the south, hits Mount Oread and bounces into Allen Fieldhouse, creating positive energy and success for the KU basketball team, he said.
Johnson uses this analogy and many others to help his students understand complex and distant ideas from East Asia that might oth-
"It's funny, but the idea sinks in with the students," Johnson said.
Johnson, 70, said one of the keys to keeping his students energetic was to be an enthusiastic teacher who gives passionate, spontaneous lectures.
Johnson has lived in Taiwan, speaks Chinese fluently and studies Asian law and how it portrays Asian society. He has been teaching Myth, Legend and Folk Beliefs in
East Asia for more than 30 years at KU
Johnson said he started teaching the East Asian course in the early 1970s, when students had no requirements to take non-Western culture classes, because he thought it was an important topic for students to learn about.

Shallenburger focuses on education, economy

Bad weather and the onset of fall break Wednesday night did not deter students and members of the Lawrence community from attending the KU College Republicans meeting with Tim Shallenburger, Republican candidate for governor.
Shallenburger spoke to about 75 people at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union for about 30 minutes, before leaving for a forum in Kansas City with Kathleen Sebelius, Democratic candidate for governor. Shallenburger gave the crowd his campaign platform, discussing major issues, including education and long-range economic development for Kansas.
He compared Kansas education to the Shallenburger family mortgage, and said his family always paid the biggest and most important bill first. He said education was his top priority as governor that it should be funded before anything else.
"We need to help the universities find ways to save money." Shallenburger said. "This is not a good time to promise to grow much, but we need to fulfill our promises to the research universities."
Republican candidate for governor Tim Shal- lenburger speaks to a meeting of KU College Republicans Wednesday night.

He also discussed funding for higher education in an interview before the speech.
Shallenburger said he was against raising taxes to cover the budget deficit.
He also discussed Kansas' need for long-range economic development. He said the key would be to recruit businesses to Kansas and to spend more money promoting Kansas tourism. Shallenburger said Kansas was listed 51st in the country in money spent to promote the state.
"We need to determine what a suitable education is and deliver it."
"We're dead last after Guam," he said. After about a 20-minute presentation, Shallenburger took questions.

Chapel chosen for charm
By Molly Gise mgise@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Some of life's most precious moments pass in the quiet corner between Fraser Hall and the Kansas Union.
In the half-century that Danforth Chapel has been open, babies have been welcomed to the world, couples have been joined for life and lost loved ones have been remembered.
On Saturday evening, Heather and Jareb Hice joined the thousands of couples who have gotten married in Danforth Chapel.
Like others, they chose the chapel for its simple beauty, its location and size and the freedom it gave them in planning their wedding.
"I didn't want a big wedding," Heather Hice, a KU graduate, said. "When I saw Danforth and how cute and little it was, it was perfect."
The chapel can be used for free, which softens the financial blow that weddings make on one's budget, said Danny Kaiser, director of the Student Organizations and Leadership Development Center.
Donations for the chapel are accepted and placed in a fund at the Kansas University Endowment Association.
The nondenominational chapel gives people without religious affiliation a site for a church-style wedding, Kaiser said.
Its location on campus also makes it a sentimental spot for students, faculty and alumni, said the Rev. Thad Holcomb, a minister at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries.
"It becomes that place of remembrance and connection for everyone who comes back."
Rev. Thad Holcomb minister at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries
Danforth Chapel was dedicated April 2, 1946, about a year after construction began. Its construction was financed through a grant from Danforth Foundation, established by William Danforth. Danforth, the founder of the Ralston Purina Company, donated money to build similar chapels at other universities. The building's construction cost $13,632. The chapel was designed by Edward Tanner, who was the first architectural engineering graduate at KU. German prisoners of war helped haul the stone to the chapel's construction site because of a shortage of labor during the final years of World War II, Holcomb said.
"It becomes that place of remembrance and connection for everyone who comes back," said Holcomb, who marries between four and five couples each year in the chapel.
About 150 to 196 couples are married in the chapel each year, with May and June being the busiest months for weddings, said Becky Dunavin, senior administrative assistant in the Student Organizations and Leadership Development Center.
Dunavin records all the reservations for the chapel.
The chapel seats between 80 and 90 people, which can be helpful or limiting. People like Heather and Jareb can have a small wedding and a packed house at the same time, Holcomb said.
Parking can be a problem, especially on KU football or basketball game days, Dunavin said. One couple rented a bus to transport their guests from an off-campus parking lot to the chapel, she said. People who reserve the chapel for weddings must find their own officiates, Dunavin said, but no restrictions apply to who can use it.
Heather Hice chose a friend who became an ordained minister through an Internet program to serve at her wedding.
"I could find whatever preacher I wanted, and I didn't have to ask for permission," she said. "I wanted someone who actually knew me to marry us."
An organist is available for a $100 fee, but people can and do provide their own music.
"I've heard everything from harps to flutes, guitars, keyboards and boom boxes," Holcomb said. "All kinds of music can be played in there."
The chapel also is used for christenings and memorial services. Religious organizations meet in the chapel, and some fraternities and sororites rent it for initiation ceremonies, Dunavin said.
The time between weddings and other services are reserved for prayer and reflection. The chapel is open daily from 7:30 a.m. to 10 p.m.

Students to discuss conflict between Israel and Palestine
The Ecumenical Christian Ministries will host a forum about the conflict between Palestine and Israel at 12:30 p.m., Wednesday at its center, 1204 Oread Ave.
Robert Rowland, professor and chairman of communication studies, will speak at the event. He wrote a soon-to-be-published book on the study of rhetoric about the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.
Thad Holcombe, campus pastor for ECM, said the topic was important because the conflict in the Middle East was not going away.
"What happens there will have small effects on us here," Holcombe said. "There has to be an alternative to war and this forum will discuss how that can be resolved."
The University Forum, held every Wednesday during the school year, allows students and residents to discuss issues that may affect Lawrence.
"This is an opportunity for the University to become more informed and to gain some kind of perspective," Holcombe said. "Once you gain perspective, you can begin to make sense of a topic that may appear senseless."
The University Forum is free and open to students and residents.

KU Endowment beats record member resigns as chairman
The Kansas University Endowment Association announced Friday that its support this past year was at a record level $68.9 million in the fiscal year from July 1,2001 to June 30,2002. That marked an increase of six percent from the previous record of $65.1 million in 2000.
Dolph C. Simons, Jr. also announced his resignation on Friday as chairman of the board of trustees of the Endowment Association. Simons spent eight years as chairman and will remain a member of the board and its executive committee.
Frank J. Becker was elected as Simons' successor and will assume
responsibilities immediately. Duties of the chairman include reviewing reports on fundraising and asset management and serving on committees that provide advice and recommendations for Endowment Association programs and activities.
Board of Regents limit credit card solicitation
The Kansas Board of Regents voted Thursday to ban credit card solicitations on campus for at least the first two weeks and last week of a semester
The policy change also requires that information on the responsible use of credit be provided to students along with any material soliciting credit card applications.
In August, University of Kansas officials, awaiting the Regents' decision, passed a policy prohibiting on-campus distribution of gifts or materials that encouraged credit card applications and credit card applications between Aug.15 and Sept. 5.

WORLD South Korea asks North to end weapons program
SEOUL, South Korea — South Korea appealed to North Korea to scrap its nuclear weapons program during talks in the North Korean capital of Pyongyang yesterday.
During talks with visiting U.S. Assistant Secretary of State James Kelly in Pyongyang Oct. 3 through 5, North Korean officials admitted to having a uranium-enriching program to make weapons.
Kelly was in Japan yesterday to talk with Japanese leaders about North Korea's nuclear program. He was expected to discuss temporarily freezing construction on the nuclear reactors under construction in North Korea. A 1994 agreement had promised North Korea reactors and a supply of fuel in exchange for abandoning its suspected nuclear weapons program.
North Korean officials told Kelly they considered the 1994 agreement invalid because the reactors were not expected to be finished by 2003 as promised.

Block of Blue Cross Blue Shield sale aids Sebelius campaign
The Associated Press
BENNINGTON — At 53, John Ellis sports a ponytail, plays bass guitar and acknowledges that his politics lean toward the liberal side, though he may sometimes vote Republican in local elections.
Ellis declared he'd probably vote for Democrat Kathleen Sebelius in the governor's race.
He liked Sebelius' decision in February as insurance commissioner to block the proposed sale of Blue Cross Blue Shield of Kansas, the state's largest health insurance company, to Anthem Insurance Companies Inc., of Indianapolis, which has about 10 million policy holders in nine states.
The companies have criticized Sebelius and said she was blocking a proposal designed to keep Blue Cross
financially healthy. In June, a Shawnee County judge declared that Sebelius had no valid legal reason to block the sale, saying she based it on "mere speculation."
But Sebelius has made her ruling an important part of her campaign for governor, arguing that it shows she has the courage to stand up to powerful special interests.
"She's putting up a good fight on that," Ellis said. "That's getting down to the common man."
Sebelius has mentioned the decision repeatedly while campaigning against Republican nominee Tim Shallenburger and in her television advertising.
"I think it's playing very well," said Democratic State Chairman Tom Sawyer. "It definitely picks her up votes."
Blue Cross actively sought the sale, arguing its long-term survival depended on new markets and greater access to capital.
Blue Cross has 45 percent of the Kansas health insurance market, with 172,000 group and individual policies covering 400,000 people. Another 315,000 people work for employers who self-insure but have their plans administered by the Blues.
Sebelius concluded that premiums for people insured by Blue Cross would have increased too much if it were purchased by Anthem.
But District Judge Terry Bullock said Sebelius' reasons weren't good enough under Kansas law.
She appealed to the Kansas Supreme Court, which isn't likely to rule until after she leaves the commissioner's office in January.

KANU fundraiser underway
Station seeks student support to help meet goal

John Studdard, Lawrence resident, takes a pledge call as part of KANU's fund raiser. Studdard, who volunteered Friday afternoon at the KANU building, said he decided to volunteer because he was a long-time listener of the station.

KANU, the public radio station of the University of Kansas, is in the middle of a fall fundraising drive that started Friday and ends Friday, Oct. 25.
Phil Wilke, media coordinator for KANU, said the station would set its fundraising goal at about $180,000.
Wilke said the Federal Corporation for Public Broadcasting would contribute additional funding proportionate to the amount KANU raised.
Janet Campbell, director of KANU, said private donations, including program underwriting, comprised about a third of the station's budget. She said the federal government and Kansas each contributed nearly a third of KANU's current $1.5 million budget.
Campbell said private donations would pay exclusively for the station's programming and not for premium gifts, such as coffee mugs and T-shirts.
"We're very frugal and very efficient with funding," she said. "If you call in your pledges, 100 percent of your pledge goes to support public radio."
Wilke said about 75 volunteers would work at KANU throughout the week to take pledges.
Bill Beningfield, Lawrence resident, has worked as a volunteer for KANU and said he enjoyed
the station's diverse programming, including classical music shows and Sunday's "My Word," a half-hour show from the British Broadcasting Corporation.
"You're not going to hear that on local rock stations," he said.
Michele Winn, Prairie Village senior, said she enjoyed the station's jazz shows.
"There aren't really a lot of other stations that play that good quality jazz," Winn said. "It's a lot better than the smooth jazz stations my dad listens to."
Wilke said people could make donations between 6 a.m. and 10 p.m. Monday through Thursday, but if necessary, the station will take donations between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m.Friday.
The station suggests a range of donation levels. Student pledges at KANU cost $20 and include a semi-annual newsletter.

KANU to expand to Manhattan area
Edited by Matt Norton
KU students near hostile Manhattan turf will soon find a friendly voice on the radio.
Kansas Public Radio will open up a new station, KANV, in the Manhattan and Junction City area by the first week of November, said Janet Campbell, director of KANU.
However, Campbell said the new station's launch could be delayed if harsh weather interfered with installing the station's antenna.
Campbell said the station was part of Kansas Public Radio's FM stations, which consist of KANU in Lawrence at 91.5, KANH in Emporia at 89.7, the new station at 91.3 and a smaller station in Atchison at 89.7.

Religious group alleges discrimination by Senate
A religious group petitioning Student Senate for funding has withdrawn its proposal, saying Senate discriminated against it.
STUDENT
THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
SENATE
Jay Rock Campus Ministry, a student group affiliated with t he e
Lawrence Church of Christ, requested Oct. 8 via Senate Listproc that its petition to help finance a retreat in early November be withdrawn.
Graduate student senator David Mitchell said the Senate talked about the credibility of the group, but that did not influence the amount of money the group would have been given if the petition continued through the legislative process.
"They were trying to bring up heresy, telling lies about people in our ministry," said group member Steve Stevenson, who helped present the bill to Student Senate.
"They felt they were being singled out as a religious group, and there had been some talk about them being cutish," Mitchell said. "They felt we were giving them extra scrutiny."
Jay Rock, which has been a registered student group for two years, first presented a petition requesting $2,400, including $1,200 for two speakers at the retreat, $200 for note pads and
$400 for events packets.
According to Senate rules and regulations, those items on the proposal could not be reimbursed using Senate funds because they were not viewpoint neutral, a standard set by a March 2000 Supreme Court ruling that guaranteed any organization access to Senate money, regardless of religious or partisan affiliations.
Kyle Johnson, chairman of the Senate finance committee, which first received the bill, said the original petition had to be pared down to comply with viewpoint neutrality, leaving only a $600 printing supply request on the bill.
"I don't know why they pulled the bill, because I think it would have gone through for $600." Mitchell said.
The rule states Senate money can be used for office supplies and photocopying expenses but not for specific religious activities such as buying Bibles or paying for worship services.
Mitchell said the viewpoint-neutral policy had been troublesome, because giving financial support to one religious or political group for any purpose could be construed as supporting those beliefs.
But before a full Senate session could consider the petition, the group decided to withdraw the request, because it felt committee discussions had been unconstructive.
"It's a really delicate tightrope." he said.
"The finance committee

especially is always hostile toward funding requests," Mitchell said. "We're guardians of student money so everything comes under intense scrutiny."
He did not think Jay Rock had been mistreated in the petitioning process.
Amy Cummins, graduate student senator, sponsored the bill and said she thought questions raised by senators about the group's credibility and intentions for the money likely had kept the group from proceeding.
She said she was disappointed full Senate would never hear the petition.
Stevenson acknowledged any religious group would have been met with controversy during the petitioning process, but he said the treatment the group received was unfair.
"I'm not angry or anything, but I just feel like we're trying to accomplish this event and trying to make it a great event, so it was distracting to try to continue the process," he said.
Stevenson said the group ultimately chose to withdraw the bill because the return on its investment of time was not there.

PERSPECTIVES
Punishments aren't the same when it comes to Kansas sports
Rules may be made to be broken, but doing so usually carries consequences if you're an athlete at the University of Kansas—unless you're a current football player facing criminal charges.
Soccer players Lindsay Hunting, Carmel Kaplinger and Nikki Wahle faced those consequences last week. All three missed Friday's game against Central Missouri State and yesterday's game against Iowa State for violating unspecified team rules.
Levi Chronister
lechronister@kansan.com
COMMENTARY
Hunting and Wahle, senior co-captains who were part of coach Mark Francis' first recruiting class, missed out on playing their final two home games. It may seem harsh to force players to sit on the bench during such an emotional and important game, but Francis said he thinks the team is happy that rule breakers are punished.
Punishment is what five members of last year's softball team — four of whom were starters — received after also violating team rules. The five players were suspended from April games against the University of Missouri-Kansas City and Missouri.
Kansas softball coach Tracy Bunge had to bench girls who had played their hearts out for her, and it couldn't have been easy for Francis to suspend two of his first players from their final home games, but both coaches made the correct decision. No
Men's basketball coach Roy Williams made a similar decision two seasons ago when senior forward Lester Earl was arrested and charged one count of driving while intoxicated and one count of driving with a suspended license Jan. 24, 2000.
Williams suspended Earl indefinitely the day after the arrest, punishing him for his indiscretion. Earl was not allowed to participate in games or travel with the team for nearly a month, but returned for the Feb. 20 game against Oklahoma.
Not every Kansas coach is as firm with punishments as Francis, Bunge and Williams.
Football coach Mark Mangino has had two players -- junior defensive tackle Brock Teddleton and senior back-up quarterback Jonas Weatherbie - who have had
run-ins with the law since Mangino was hired in December 2001.
Weatherbie was arrested July 10 for driving while intoxicated and driving with a suspended license — the same charges Earl faced. Teddleton is facing battery charges after a March 9 incident at Jack Flanigan's Bar & Grill.
Even though both players are facing formal charges, there has been no public apparent punishment for either Jayhawk. Mangino said he was aware of a situation, which he handled internally.
Teddleton wasn't on the sideline for games against University of Nevada-Las Vegas or Southwest Missouri State, but he said he didn't think the games had anything to do with the altercation.
Weatherbie, whose driving incident slipped under Mangino's radar until a reporter brought it up during a press conference, has suited up for every Kansas game this year, even though his DWI charge was a violation of team rules.
If smaller sports such as soccer and softball can afford to bench vital players during crucial games and the men's basketball team can look past its star status and make sure team rules are followed, shouldn't Mangino do the same?

Try a new kind of stress reduction remedy: learn to laugh
How often do you laugh in a normal day? How often do you giggle or chuckle at
something? The answer is probably not enough.
Did you know that laughter could actually help decrease "stress" hormones? According to a study done by Dr. Lee Berk and Dr. Stanley Tan of Loma Linda University, laughing is one of the best things you can do for yourself. Laughing not only reduces stress and aids in muscle relaxation but also enhances the immune system.
GUEST COMMENTARY
So laugh, will you? OK, so you can force yourself to laugh, but you can take time out each day to learn what it is that makes you crack a smile and release that
I for one am a very uptight person. I tend to obsess over the little things in life, which only end up causing me more stress. Yet, one of the things I seem to forget is laughing makes me feel good. So why not laugh more? Let's take the time out of our day to have a good laugh. Here are a few of my suggestions on how to start cracking up.
sound of joy.
COLD SUMMER
Before you go renting Monty Python and the Holy Grail (which I highly recommend if you even remotely like British humor) it is important to determine what kind of humor you like. I personally like sarcastic humor but have found that stupid humor is just as stimulating sometimes. The important thing is
Mandy German opinion@kansan.com
to realize what you think is funny doesn't mean everyone has to think it is funny.
Try renting what one film student I know calls "check your brain at the door" movies. These are movies that require absolutely no thought in order to enjoy them. Super Troopers and Our Cold are my newest personal favorites in
this category. But, again try to find something that reflects your humor or just go with what I now consider a classic like Tommy Boy.
Hang out with people that make you laugh. Hopefully since you have been in college you have made friends that you are able to laugh with or at. If you have yet to find that group of friends you are missing out. In general, it's being around people that take themselves lightly that can help stimulate your funny bone.
Laugh at yourself. Come on, you have to admit some of the stuff you do is pretty funny. For instance, I have to crack up at myself every time I walk into the glass doors at Target because I mistake the manual doors for the automatic ones. I
also find it pretty funny when I call someone and have a conversation with him or her for several minutes before realizing that the person I actually dialed is not whom I wanted to reach.
Go on, find that one movie that makes you cry from laughter. Find that person that can do the robot. Find something that makes you laugh. Life is pretty funny if you take the time to actually notice.
Most of all, always remember the words of Sébastien Roch Nicolas Chamfort who said: "The most wasted day of all is that on which we have not laughed."

Bored students stuck in halls for fall break

A depleted supply of neighbors left the remaining occupants at residence and scholarship halls looking for different ways to while the hours away during fall break.
Fall break, which gave students Thursday and Friday off, is the longest period of time every residence hall stays open for residents during a break. Most residents left town for the break, leaving those who stayed with a different atmosphere.
William Harvill, Johnson City, Tenn., graduate student, said his wing at McCollum Hall had diminished from its normal 30 residents to five during the break.
Harvill spent time Friday watching television while grading papers for students in History of Rock and Roll, the "ultimate slacker class," for which
"It's boring. I'm used to having people running up and down the halls at 6 o'clock in the morning."

The atmosphere was similar at the scholarship halls.
"It's boring," said Dustin Maimer, Stephenson Hall resident. "I'm used to having people running up and down the halls at 6 o'clock in the morning."
Mainer, Ellsworth Air Force Base, South Dakota, sophomore, said he killed time with lots of sleeping. He said he would have gone home if his car hadn't broken down the week before fall break.
Gwen Gerdsen, Wichita sophomore, said she saw one
girl on her floor during the break. She said a different sound replaced the sounds of a full residence hall.
"A lot of alarms going off," Gerdsen said. She said students had left alarm clocks set for their usual Thursday wake-up calls.
Gerdsen said the break from other residents gave her a chance to do chores she was behind on, such as laundry.
Kelly McKee, Sellards Hall resident, said she had more reasons to stay in Lawrence than to return home.
"It's like a three-and-a-half hour drive," said McKee, Anthony sophomore. "But my little sister was playing in the state tennis meet. And it was here."
McKee said six residents stayed in the hall during the break. She killed time Saturday afternoon watching Three Men and a Little Lady.

Lawrence may expand wastewater facilities
By Lindsey Hodel

Kansan staff writer
Lawrence's population has grown about 13 percent since 1995, and this growth is placing a strain on the city's current waste water facilities.
The city commission approved $50,000 to hire Black & Veatch, an engineering consulting company, to research an expansion of the existing waste water system. The company then will propose a master plan based on its recommendations.
The city is considering two options: an expansion of the current waste water treatment plant, 1400 E. Eighth St., or the construction of a new plant on the Wakarusa river. The city hopes to have the master plan finished this year, said Debbie Van Saun, assistant city manager.
Van Saun said city officials had to guess what Lawrence's population would be in 2025 to plan for the expansion.
A Wakarusa River plant would be equipped to handle 6 to 8 million gallons a day, Coffey said.
The current plant handles 12 1/2 million gallons of waste water each day, said Roger Coffey, director of utilities. He said the city wants to increase the plant's waste water capacity to 18 1/2 million gallons a day.
Vanessa Meyer, Grayslake, Ill., senior and member of KU Environs, said another option was to try and conserve water.
"The city has lots of alternatives to the plan," she said. "You can't put a price on clean water, because it affects everybody differently."

Student to produce gospel concert

The possibility of harmonizing religious faith and professional dreams is becoming a reality for R.C. Davis through the creation of Keynote Productions.
The 22-year-old Topeka sophomore is launching Keynote, a gospel music-focused production company, to help musicians perform and record.
Davis' first project is helping Tiffni Williams, a Washburn University sophomore, write songs for a CD he said he wanted to produce.
keyboard, bass or drums.
Williams, who sings with Washburn's "Singing With Praise" gospel choir, writes the words and melodies, while Davis comes up with the accompaniment using
“He's very gifted,” Williams said. “He's got his mind made up to become a producer, and he'll stick with it no matter how long it takes to do it.”
Williams and Davis have written about 20 songs and aim to create a CD single by February.
This week, Davis is set to prove he can take his production skills out of the studio.
"The Survival Concert" is Davis' first concert production and is slated for 7 p.m. Saturday at Topeka's Inward Faith Outreach Ministries, 625 S.W. Polk St.
The two-hour production will feature musical talent from the Kansas City area, such as the Full Gospel Church Step Team, PW2, Jacki McCovney, Kavana Williams and the Praise Production Singers.

He said he convinced Lake of the Ozarks, Mo.-based station KCRL 90.3 and Topeka's KJTY 88.1 to let him promote the concert on air. He has also posted and passed out fliers at churches in the Kansas City area this weekend.
Davis said gospel music allowed him to share a message about his religious faith.
It's not a huge venue, Davis said, but he will work hard to fill the estimated 500 seats.
"I prefer letting my music's message be about about Jesus
Christ instead of sex, drugs and alcohol," he said.
Davis also accompanies the University of Kansas' gospel choir, Inspirational Gospel Voices, and teaches drum lessons.
The music production eventually will lead to coordinating motivational conferences for teens and couples, and maybe even movies, Davis said.
But in the meantime, Davis said he wanted to become an inspiration for an uninspired, unmotivated youth.
"I want to show them that they can make their dreams come true," he said. "It's very possible to record, perform, run sounds, lights or promotions. I'm a perfect example. Anything's possible."

Leaving lawns alone
By Justin Henning
jhenning@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
It's not uncommon for students to just 'leaf' their yards alone this time of year.
As the weather gets cooler, trees begin to turn colors and drop their leaves. This prompts James Smith, Shawnee junior, to do nothing more than let nature take its course.
"I don't own a rake and I can think of lots of other things to do with my afternoon than rake my yard," he said.
Ron Baker, of Willowridge Landscape Co., said this handsoff approach could be detrimental to a lawn.
"Leaves cover the grass and
can cause it to die
due to lack of sunlight," he said.
"Mulching them up with grass as compost would be a good idea."
But there always seems to be better things to do than rake leaves. With fall break just ending, students have even less time to tend to their yard. That's why Sue Carson, co-owner of Doc's Mowing Service, said several easier alternatives existed to raking and bagging leaves.
"Just rake them into a corner of the yard or under a tree or bush," she said. "Or, if you have a mower, use that to chop up the leaves each week then rake them up against the fence to prevent weeds."
She added that leaves should not be raked up against the house. This encourages termites, carpenter ants and rodents to infest the home.
Lindsey Hancock, Abilene sophomore, said that although she didn't own a rake, she would enjoy raking leaves on a nice fall day.

a bad chore," she said. "It smells nice and it beats
"It just doesn't seem like such
doing dishes or cleaning the bathroom."
Carson said that either raking or not was fine by her, as long as the leaves weren't smothering the grass. She had heard of people doing any number of things to their lawn.
"It's pretty hard to kill living plants in Kansas," she said. "It's nature. Nature will eventually break down the leaves."
This seemed like the logical option for Smith, who said he and his roommates hardly thought about the yard.
"I have homework and a job," he said. "I'm just going to let nature take its course and see how it looks in the spring."

them," Dunavin said.
The chapel plays an important role to students who need a place to be alone, said Holcomb.
"The university culture is so busy, so hurried, so competitive." Holcomb said.
Danforth provides a quiet place for students who are trying to make sense of themselves and the world, he said.
"There needs to be time to withdraw, to think, to reflect," Holcomb said. "At times you can slip off and do that."
Reservation forms to rent the chapel are available at the Student Organizations and Leadership Development Center, 400 Kansas Union. For more information, call 864-4861.

he said, responding to questions about his "4 in the Core" plan and teacher shortages. "We need to determine 'suitable' and fund it 100 percent at the state level."
He also responded to campaign ads running on TV, emphasizing the importance of researching all candidates in an election.
Some students at the event came from Manhattan to hear Shallenburger speak, and most people at the event were pleased
that the candidate had taken the time to speak to students.
"It really shows that he wants to listen to student voices," said Erin Blocher, KU College Republicans chairwoman. Blocher, Colorado Springs, Colo., senior, said she was glad to hear Shallenburger's platform "from the horse's mouth."
Kansas State University College Republican Angie Schertz said her group came because they were interested in hearing what the candidate had to say.
"We're trying to figure out how we can support the campaigns in Manhattan," said Schertz, Monument senior.
Robin Anderson, KU Young Democrats President, was part of a group of about 15 Democrats protesting outside the event. Many of the protesters, including Anderson, later entered the auditorium to hear Shallenburger's speech.
"In particular, I really want some clarification on his education plan," said Anderson, Topeka senior.
Throughout the evening, which also included a speech by Scott Stewart, national chairman of the College Republicans. Shallenburger emphasized the importance of planning.
"You have to plan your work and work your plan," he said.
Shallenburger said he intended to crisscross the state again before election day. He said he remained confident in his plan to become governor.
"We've got a ways to go yet," Shallenburger said. "An election tomorrow would not be good for Tim Shallenburger — we've planned for November fifth."

He said the class usually had high enrollment numbers, with 270 students this semester.
"I'm sure most are taking it to fulfill a requirement," Johnson said. "But they are generally very enthusiastic once in the class."
Lauren Cason, Overland Park sophomore, said that she took the class to fulfill a non-Western culture requirement.
"It gives you a different perspective on life, instead of the Western perspective we usually learn about," Cason said.
"I think it's a really eyeopening for lots of students."

Erratic Jayhawks
Kansas plays well at times against A&M but loses; QB Whittemore battered,but shines in defeat
By John Domoney
jdomoney@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
If there's one wish of the Kansas football team as it prepares for this Saturday's border war against the University of Missouri, it's for the Jayhawks to play a complete four quarters of football against the rival Tigers.
Saturday's 47-22 loss to Texas A&M was eerily reminiscent of other Jayhawk losses in which Kansas has played well in spurs but not in the consistent fashion that wins football games.
"We got out there and give it our all and we come out with a loss, nobody wants to lose," said senior linebacker Greg Cole. "Then we just go back to the drawing board and try and get ready for the next opponent."
All week the Kansas defense and defensive coordinator Bill Young had focused on the Aggie running game, but it was the passing attack of sophomore quarterback Dustin Long that had the Jayhawk defenders on their heels.
Long torched the Jayhawks for 399 passing yards and three touchdowns on 18-of-32 passing.
Long's 407 total yards of offense was the second best single-game effort in Texas A&M history. The 399 passing yards are the fifth most all-time by a Kansas opponent.
"In the secondary we certainly had
"The matchups and the speed hurt us a little bit but we still have to be able to play the ball better,play some man coverage a lot better and I think we just have to keep at it."
Mark Mangino Kansas football coach
some struggles there," said Kansas coach Mark Mangino. "The matchups and the speed hurt us a little bit but we still have to be able to play the ball better, play some man coverage a lot better and I think we just have to keep at it."
After being outscored 41-9 in the first quarters of last three games, Kansas (2-6 overall, 0-4 Big 12 Conference) was able to hold the Aggies to a scoreless tie through the first period, but Texas A&M quickly established the momentum early in the second.
In less than five minutes at the beginning of the second quarter, the Aggies took a scoreless game and tacked on three touchdowns.
The last of those three touchdowns came on a Randall Webb 12-yard fumble return for a touchdown after he scooped up a Greg Heaggans fumble on the kickoff.
As the second half began with the
Aggies leading 24-0, the Jayhawks showed the never-say-die attitude they have displayed all season.
After Leo Etienne recovered an Aggie fumble, junior quarterback Bill Whittmore found senior wide receiver Byron Gasaway two plays later for an 18-yard touchdown pass midway through the third quarter.
On the next possession, the Jayhawk defense forced another turnover, as Etienne picked off a pass from Reggie McNeal, who replaced Long in the third quarter.
Kansas looked poised to put more points on the board, but a Johnny Beck 35-yard field goal was wiped off the scoreboard because of an illegal procedure penalty. The subsequent 40-yard attempt was partially blocked.
The Jayhawks pulled to within 31-15 at the beginning of the fourth quarter when Whittimore connected with Gasaway for a 12-yard touchdown pass, but the Aggies put the game away with 16 unanswered points.
Once again, Whittemore carried the Jayhawk offense, as he accounted for 230 of Kansas' 289 total offensive yards. The two passing touchdowns and one rushing touchdown moved him into a tie for first place with former quarterback Chip Hilley on the Kansas single-season touchdown list with 20.
But Whittemore took a licking from

Texas A&M sets records
Aggies beat Hawks with record passing receiving yards

Kansan sportswriter
The 2002 Kansas football team will be remembered in the record books.
Unfortunately for the Jayhawks, their name will be linked with their opponents' best offensive performances.
Texas A&M's sophomore quarterback Dustin Long became the latest to
post record-breaking numbers against Kansas when he set the Aggies' passing mark by completing 18 of 32 passes for 399 yards to lead his team to a 47-22 win Saturday.
Long's display came just one week after University of Colorado junior running back Chris Brown turned in the third-most yards (309) in a single game by a Buffalo ball carrier.
Like Brown, Long gave most of the credit for his statistical explosion to his teammates.
"It's easy when you throw it 20 yards and they run the rest of the 60 for an 80- yard touchdown," Long said.
Long's numbers might have been even better. He missed part of the third quarter when Texas A&M
coach R.C. Slocum pulled him so freshman quarterback Reggie McNeal could get some playing time. McNeal completed two of five passes for 29 yards, and threw an interception before Slocum decided to reinstate Long.
Slocum said Long had missed opportunities early in the game, but he found his groove when he returned.
"He had a good day, made some big plays, a couple of beautiful balls," Slocum said. "The last long pass there was just perfectly thrown."

Weekend race tough on runners
The Kansas men's and women's cross country teams finished 28th and 26th, respectively, Saturday at the NCAA Pre-Nationals Invitational hosted by Indiana State in Terre Haute, Ind.
The women (33-27, 4-2 Bi0g 12) competed against 36 teams in the six kilometer White race. Big 12 rivals who also participated in the race included Baylor, Texas A&M and Iowa State.
The Kansas women were led by junior Laura Lavoie who placed 64th of 254 runners with a time of 21:42. Junior Paige Higgins was the second Jayhawk to cross the finish line. She came in 98th overall with a time of 22:02. Sophomore Megan Manthe was the third for the team with a time

Soccer scores victories
By Daniel Berk dberk@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter.
Heading into weekend play, Kansas soccer coach Mark Francis said it was vital that his team play hard and rebound from a tough loss to Oklahoma last Sunday.
The Jayhawks won both games without the help of three players. Seniors Nikki Wahle and Lindsay Hunting and junior Carmel Kaplinger were suspended for the pair of weekend games for violating two team rules.
"The girls were suspended one game for each rule they broke," Francis said. "They served their suspension and are back with the team and will play with us this weekend."
His team did just that by defeating Central Missouri State on Fridav 5-0 and conference rival Iowa State 2-1 yesterday.
Francis said he would not comment on what rules had been violated.

Both Wahle and Hunting missed the annual senior day game against Iowa State yesterday. Two seniors, Brooke Jones and Brianna Valento, were honored at the pre-game ceremony.
Having absent players did not stand in the way of the Jay hawks. Kansas scored four goals in the first half of the game against Central Missouri State on Friday. The team struck early as it scored three goals in the first 17 minutes of action.

Club soccer aims at nationals
By Steve Vockrodt
svockrodt@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
The University of Kansas men's club soccer team has set its sights on playing in the national tournament following a string of recent promising victories.
Since losing the championship match of the Kansas State Ed Chartrand Tournament on Sept. 29 to Kansas State University, KU has won three consecutive games, all victories by a margin of two goals or more. The wins have made the team optimistic for a regional placing that will take them to nationals.
"Everyone is focused and well coached," said graduate student Cedric Sunray. "We want to win the national championship, nothing else really matters."
KU's winning streak began with a 5-1 victory over the University of Arkansas on Oct. 5, followed with a 3-1 victory over St. Louis University on Oct. 13. Yesterday, the team earned its most recent victory in a 6-0 pounding of the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colo.
With these victories, KU improved its conference record to a perfect 8-0. It has a No.1 ranking in MidAmerican Sports Club League conference and is ranked second to the University of Texas in regional competition. Senegal-native El Hadjj Oumar Seck leads the nation by scoring 36 points from 14 goals and 8 assists.
The loss to Kansas State in the Chartrand tournament served as a motivating experience for the team en-route to its current winning streak.
"The K-State game was awful, but we realized a fluke is a fluke and you bounce back," Sunray said.
In the loss, the team outplayed Kansas State but came away empty-handed after several shots hit the post and other scoring chances were thwarted.
Aside from the scoring presence of Seck and the admirable play of Sean Murray, Topeka junior and Ben Stone, Emporia senior, the goalkeeping of Chris Hartley has kept KU's winning streak alive.
"He has made several highlight-reel saves for us." Sunray said.
Sunray, a former NCAA soccer player for Millersville University in Pennsylvania, said the level of play KU had showed lately rivaled the play of several of the Division I teams he had faced as an NCAA athlete.
"I've played all these Division I schools, and this team can play with anybody." Sunray said.
With more NCAA men's soccer programs being cut because of Title IX constraints, the level of nationwide club soccer has escalated, Sunray said.
KU plays top-20 ranked National Association of Inter-Collegiate Athletics' Baker University today in its final regular season match.

Texas Tech 52, Missouri 38
LUBBOCK, Texas — Kliff Kingsbury has wanted a 500-yard game for a while.
Saturday night he got it, completing 49 of 70 passes for 510 yards and five touchdowns in a 52-38 victory over Missouri.
Kingsbury broke the Big 12 yardage record of 474 he set earlier this year and broke his school records for completions and attempts. He also became the 20th passer in Division I-A history to reach 10,000 career yards.
No.2 Oklahoma 49, No.9 Iowa St.3
MANHATTAN, Kan.— Both kickers felt confident. Now only one feels good.
The Oklahoma quarterback, who had taken a hit from an Iowa State defender, found it more amusing than painful.
That was about the only blemish on the performance of Hybl and the second-ranked Sooners, who delivered a brutal blow of reality to No. 9 Iowa State in beating the Cyclones 49-3 Saturday.
NORMAN, Okla. — Nate Hybl kept rubbing his red, swollen nose as he sat deep inside Memorial Stadium.
No.8 Texas 17, No.17 Kansas St.14
As the crowd chanted, "We hate you, we hate you," Texas kicker Dusty Mangum drilled a 27-yard field goal with 1:32 left Saturday night to give the
eighth-ranked Longhorns a 17-14 victory over No. 17 Kansas State.
With 7 seconds to go, Kansas State's Jared Brite lined up for a potential tying field goal from 36 yards out. But the kick was low, and Marcus Tubbs got a hand on it to preserve the win for Texas.
Oklahoma St. 24, Nebraska 21
STILLWATER, Okla. - While Nebraska is trying to recall when it last experienced such a bleak season, the surprised Oklahoma State Cowboys are thinking about a bowl game.
Adding to an already disappointing season, the Cornhuskers lost to Oklahoma State for the first time since 1961 as Josh Fields threw two touchdown passes and ran for another in a 24-21 victory on Saturday.
The win was no fluke, either. Nebraska's onceproud defense was no match for Oklahoma State's offense.
No. 23 Colorado 34, Baylor 0
BOULDER, Colo. — Chris Brown finished last season with a flourish, and he appears to have found that form again.
Brown ran for 167 yards and three first-half touchdowns before leaving in the third quarter with a sprained ankle, and No.23 Colorado dominated Baylor 34-0 on Saturday.
Brown, the nation's leading rusher, boosted his per-game average slightly to 164.9 yards as Colorado (5-2, 3-0 Big 12) won for the fourth straight time.

Yeah, I was at that football game, and people were jingling their keys during the kickoff. Don't they know that's what K-State does? That's the cardinal sin. You don't copy a school that sucks, and man, K-State does suck.

If the football team really wanted to make money, they'd pave the field and sell tickets to the drive-in.
It's nice to see that major league baseball in the playoffs have mimicked KU with the noonan sticks at games. Really appreciate that.

Kansas player nominated to best punter watch list
Kansas junior Curtis Ansel has been added to the Ray Guy Award watch list for 2002 Punter of the Year. He was one of nine additions to the watch list last week and brought the total number of nominees to 46.
Ansel ranks eighth in the Big 12 and is 35th in the NCAA. He averages 41.6 yards per punt. He has booted a careerbest and Big 12 Conference record 83-yarder (at Baylor) and an 82-yarder (at UNLV) this season. The 83-yard punt ties as the second-longest in KU history with Mike Hubach's in 1979, while the 82-yard boot ties as the third-longest in school history with Dean Royal's in 1997. In addition, Ansel has 16 punts that have been down inside the 20 this season.
During the last week of this month, the Ray Guy Award committee will narrow the watch list to the top ten candidates.
The Ray Guy Award national voting members include sports writers, college football coaches, former punters and members designated by the Greater Augusta Sports Council.

Team's breach of policy ends football season
PRETTY PRAIRIE — A few days after Pretty Prairie suffered its fourth loss of the year, coach C.T. Young interrupted practice to say that any player who had violated the school's substance abuse policy should sten forward.
First one player did, then another — 16 of the 23 Bulldogs in all. And with that, Pretty Prairie High School's eight-man football season was over, ending Oct. 8 with three games to play.
"He did what he had to do and he was right," said team leader Matt Graber, who had been the second to step forward behind fellow team leader Zac Wilder. "The rest of the team doesn't blame him."
Graber himself, a senior nose guard who admits chewing tobacco, had gone to Young about the problems he believed were partly responsible for the team's record of one win and four losses.
Some players drank alcohol and partied heavily, even on game nights, while others smoked or chewed tobacco—all in violation of a zero tolerance policy adopted by the Pretty Prairie USD 311 school board two years ago after review by coaches, school officials and others.
Superintendent Bob King said the players "showed a lot of integrity by stepping forward and admitting they violated the rules."
"When the coach asked who had violated the policy, they could have looked the other way.
They could have lied," King said. "But they were men enough to admit it and accept the consequences."
Young, in his first year as head coach, admitted that the scope of his players' honesty took him by surprise.
"I expected just a few to step up, not a whole bunch," he said Thursday.
'Clash of Champions' draws record crowd
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Mitch Herring ran for 109 yards and two touchdowns on 23 carries as Northwest Missouri State beat Pittsburg State 29-7 Thursday night in front of the largest crowd to see an Division II game since the NCAA reorganized its lower divisions in 1973.
The announced attendance of 26,695 at Arrowhead Stadium broke the previous mark of 20,575, set in 1977 when Nevada-Las Vegas played at Boise State. Both of those schools now play in Division I-A.
John McMenamin threw for 313 yards for Northwest Missouri State, including a 12-yard scoring pass to Adam Otte, on 29-for-38 passing. He also ran for a 2-yard score on his only rushing attempt as the Bearcats handed Pittsburg State its second loss in six days.
The game was promoted as the "Clash of the Champions," with the two schools having combined for five Division II and NAIA national titles and 12 of the last 13 Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association championships.
But on Thursday, fifth-ranked Northwest Missouri State (7-0, 5-0) dominated the 11th-ranked Gorillas (5-2, 3-2) from the outset.
The Bearcats forced four turnovers — including two interceptions by safety Ryan Miller — and held the ball for more than 38
minutes as they outgained Pitts-
burg State 467 yards to 139.
The Gorillas, whose only touchdown came on Aaron Hight's 47-yard interception return in the closing minutes, have not scored an offensive touchdown in their last two games. They lost 13-3 to Emporia State on Saturday.
"We're not playing very good," Pittsburg State coach Chuck Broyles said. "The only good think I can think about is that we have Friday, Saturday and Sunday off instead of just one day."
Tax breaks approved for Cardinals stadium
ST. LOUIS — The St. Louis Board of Aldermen gave final approval Friday to two major tax breaks aimed at building a
replacement for Busch Stadium in downtown St. Louis.
Cardinals
One was a measure to
eliminate a 5 percent amusement tax on the Cardinals. The other exempts the team's proposed new ballpark from property taxes, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported on its Web site.
Both passed overwhelmingly.
Mayor Francis Slay called passage of the measures a major step forward, saying other pieces should fall into place.
The initiatives are part of the city's effort to entice the Cardinals to stay downtown — and back down from threats to build a new ballpark in Illinois sweetened with a heavy subsidy.

Illinois lawmakers are reconvening in Springfield next month. Slay also wants a deal before Nov. 5, when city voters will consider Proposition S, a referendum that requires voters to approve any public expenditures for the non-
Cardinal players undergoing surgery
ST. LOUIS — St. Louis Cardinals outfielder J.D. Drew is expected to be slowed during spring training and early next season after arthroscopic surgery that removed part of a dead tendon from his knee.
During Thursday's hour-long surgery, doctors drilled a series of holes in Drew's kneecap and removed a significant portion of the tendon.
"From everything we've heard, it went very well," Cardinals general manager Walt Jockeyt said. "I think there's a good chance he'll be pretty far along after spring training."
The Cardinals anticipate Drew serving a part-time role until at least next June.
Jocketty added that Cardinals closer Jason Isringhausen also will have arthroscopic surgery on his sore right shoulder within the next week.
"I don't think they expect to (find) any major damage, just basically kind of a what they refer as a cleanup job," Jocketty said.
Isringhausen had 35 saves for the Cardinals this season, including three in the playoffs, before St. Louis lost to San Francisco in the NL championship series.
Drew, who will remain on crutches for seven to 10 days before beginning strengthening exercises for the leg, with the tendon expected to regenerate in about six weeks.
Former Twins star faces assault charges
Drew's rehabilitation is expected to require four to six months.
MINNEAPOLIS — Baseball Hall of Famer Kirby Puckett was charged Friday with dragging a
woman into a restaurant bathroom last month and grabbing her breast.
The woman had bruises, and her ankle was swollen from hitting
MINNESOTA
Twins
a door frame, according to the criminal complaint, which cited several witnesses.
The former Minnesota Twins star was charged with a felony count of false imprisonment and a gross misdemeanor count of criminal sexual conduct.
If convicted, Puckett probably would be put on probation and given less than a year in the county workhouse, according to County Attorney Amy Klobuchar. She said it was unlikely he would be sentenced to the legal maximum of four years in prison and $8,000 in fines.
Puckett's attorney, former federal prosecutor B. Todd Jones and Twins spokesman Dave St Peter did not immediately return phone calls seeking comment.
Puckett was not expected to be at Friday's later hearing, where prosecutors were going to seek bail of $20,000. He was expected to be booked formally today and his first court appearance probably will be in two or three weeks.
Puckett, an outfielder, retired in 1995 after 12 seasons with the Twins, a team he helped win the World Series in 1987 and 1991. He joined the Hall of Fame last year.
"Like most Minnesotans, I remember watching Mr. Puckett help the Twins win two World Series, and he's a great Hall of Fame baseball player. But that night, in that bar, he was no one's hero," Klobuchar said.
Puckett's wife, Tonya, filed for divorce in February, about two months after she told police he threatened to kill her during an argument.
He denied making such a threat, and prosecutors didn't
charge him. The Pucketts reached a tentative settlement this month.
Former Mariners manager wants faster job move
SEATTLE — Lou Piniella is "disappointed" with the Seattle Mariners' handling of negotiations with the New York Mets and Tampa Bay Devil Rays and he wanted to "get on with my life."
"They had told me they were going to be fair and reasonable and quick," the former Mariners manager told the New York Daily News on Thursday night from his home in Tampa, Fla.
"Well that hasn't been the case. I'm disappointed in them. I thought they would be better about all this. I just want to get on with my life and I would think they would want to get on with theirs, too."
Seattle has agreed to release Piniella from the final year of his contract, provided teams interested in interviewing him give the Mariners "appropriate and reasonable compensation." But that process has dragged on for a week.
"Obviously, I wish they could have started this process earlier," commissioner Bud Selig told the Daily News.
"I'm concerned about anything that would be a distraction to the World Series, as this could be."
Teams are not permitted to make managerial announcements during the World Series, which starts Saturday and could end as late as Oct.27.
So far, the Mets and Devil Rays have publicly expressed interest in talking to Piniella, but neither team has been able to work out a deal with the Mariners.
"We) had several discussions today with the Seattle Mariners concerning compensation for Lou Piniella," said Tampa Bay GM Chuck LaMar. "At this point, we have not agreed to terms."

MADRID, Spain — Now that the "Macarena" has become a distant memory, along comes "The Ketchup Song" — and dance.
The Spanish pop tune with gobbledygook lyrics is topping charts around the world, and it's accompanied by arm-waving, knee-knocking gyrations.
World relishes 'Las Ketchup'
The Asssociated Press
The album that features the song has sold 900,000 copies around the world, reaching gold status in much of Latin America.
One Danish Internet portal offers the melody for downloading as a cell phone beep.

Indeed, the limelight is all over the Munoz sisters — Pilar, 29; Lola, 26; and Lucia, 19 — and their song about a fashion-conscious gypsy named Diego who makes up his own kind of rap.
The sisters teamed up a year ago and named themselves 'Las Ketchup' as a homage to their flamenco guitarist-father, nicknamed 'El Tomate.'
Their song, known in Spanish as "Asereje," bases its lyrics on snippets from the 1979 classic "Rapper's Delight" by the Sugar Hill Gang, but transmogrifies them with a staccato twist from Las Ketchup's native Andalusia region.
This week, they are visiting Miami and New York to promote the single and the LP, called "Hijas del Tomate," or "Daughters of Tomato."
The refrain goes like this:
"Asereje ja de je de jebte jebere sebioubou majabi an de
That's not Spanish, it's gibberish.
The version released in the United States and most other non-Spanish speaking countries is called "The Ketchup Song (Hey Hah)."
bugui an de buididipi."
The refrain's the same but the intelligible part of the song — it actually has one — switches to Spanglish.
The song's wildfire spread is reminiscent of the "Macarena," the 1996 song and dance by the Spanish duo Los del Rio.
Earlier this month, the Munoz sisters sang their song on one of Germany's most popular TV shows—13 million people tuned in and watched as David Bowie, Cindy Crawford and other glitterati did the dance.

Whittemore strong despite the loss
By David Mitchell Lawrence Journal-World
Bill Whittemore did it all for Kansas University on Saturday at Memorial Stadium.
He just couldn't do enough.
KU's junior quarterback passed for 187 yards, ran for 27 and even caught one pass for 16 yards, but his 230 all-purpose yards couldn't prevent Texas A&M from rolling
to a 47-22 victory.
"I really admire him," Texas A&M coach R.C. Slocum said. "He's a courageous young man and makes some great plays. I thought our team did a good job of containing him until late in the game."
Texas A&M pressured Whitte-
more all day, sacking the Fort
Scott Community College transfer five times. He entered the game averaging a team-leading 70.7 yards a game, but netted only 27 yards on 21 carries.
The elements were the same as always. Your guys played tough. They should be proud. Keep working, and one of these days ...

Topeka Capital-Journal
After sixth speech, team tired of talk
Another week, another gut-punch of a loss, another version of the dreaded consolation speech.
"I think everybody's tired of it," KU quarterback Bill Whittemore said after hearing the spiel for the sixth time in eight games.

Against the Aggies, the Jayhawks showed once again how far they are from reaching that goal.
Receiver shines in loss to Aggies
By Jason King The Kansas City Star
At least one Kansas player left Memorial Stadium with something to smile about.
Receiver Byron Gasaway — initially labeled a recruiting coup by many Jayhawk partisans — turned in his best performance in four seasons during Saturday's 47-22 loss to Texas A&M.
A senior from Grandview, Mo., Gasaway hauled in a career-high six passes for 63 yards. He also accounted for both of KU's touchdowns by scoring on 12- and 18-yard strikes from quarterback Bill Whittmore.
Gasaway, though, tried to downplay his performance.
"Touchdowns aren't a big deal unless you win," he said. "So I'm really not thinking about those things."
Aggies' quarterback sets record in win
By Rick Plumlee The Wichita Eagle
Kansas found the cure Saturday to falling behind by two touchdowns in the first quarter.
The layhawks, however, were only delaying the pain. Texas A&M scored 21 points in less

than four minutes in the second period as the Aggies torched KU's secondary in their 47-22 victory.
Specifically, Texas A&M sophomore Dustin Long struck out KU's cornerbacks in passing for a school-record 399 yards and three touchdowns.
It was hardly unexpected. And not just because Long has now thrown for more than 1,400 yards after making only his fifth start of the season. KU's corners have been easy targets all year.
Texas A&M exploits Kansas' bad defense
By Dallas Shipp The Battalion
The student newspaper of Texas A&M
The last time Texas A&M's offense accomplished that feat was in 1941.
Sophomore quarterback Dustin Long led the way on offense, setting a new school record with 399 passing yards. Long set the Big 12 record for touchdown passes against Texas Tech earlier this season.
The Aggies scored 40-plus points for the third consecutive game for just the second time in school history.
Long also gave the Aggies their second best performance by a quarterback with 407 total yards of offense.
early 24-0 lead against Kansas on Saturday on their way to a 47-22 thumping of the Jayhawks in front of 32,000 fans.
"Anytime you throw for 399 yards its gonna be a good day." Long said. "I cant say it was all me, the receivers made some great catches out there so it was a team performance out there."

centage, the highest for a Kansas opponent this season. Missouri had four players with double-digit kills, led by freshman outside hitter Shen Danru's match-high 15 kills.
It was the third match this season a Jayhawk did not record a double-double. Freshman middle blocker Josiane Lima led the team with six kills. Sophomore outside hitter Lindsey Morris had a team-high seven digs.
"We ran into a very aggressive serving team tonight and Missouri took us out of the contest early," coach Ray Bechard said. "MU may very well be the best team we've faced all year. It was a difficult night for us."
The Missouri Tigers gave the Jayhawks their fourth game without a double-double on Saturday. Junior outside hitter Sarah Rome led the team with 11 kills. Junior
outside hitter Abbie Jacobson was the only other Jayhawk with double-digit kills, recording 10. Senior defensive specialist Jennifer Kraft had a team-high 14 digs. Sophomore libero and defensive specialist Jill Dorsey had 11.
Three Wildcats had double-digit kills, including junior outside hitter Cari Jensen's match high 17 kills and junior middle blocker Lauren Goehring's 13. Lisa Martin recorded a .500 hitting percentage, with 12 kills out of 18 attempts and three hitting errors.
Kansas returns home to play No.4 Nebraska at 7 p.m. Wednesday in the Horejsi Family Athletics Center.
"It's frustrating that K-State was good out of transition, not that they blocked us so much," Jacobson said. "But when we blocked them, they ended the play with good heavy swings."

"Menefee had a strong finish for us and Laura did a good job leading the women," coach Stanley Redwine said. "Sometimes we learn more from what we do wrong than what we do right. This race was a good learning experience for us. There was a really good field running for both the races we participated in. So, now we know where we stand.

Taylor and senior Bethel Johnson each had more than 100 yards receiving — 131 and 124 — and sophomore Terrance Murphy was close with 99. Each also had long plays of more than 45 yards.
Offensively, it was the third consecutive big win for an Aggie team better known for its stingy defense.
After the game, Taylor said he thought history might ultimately give the receivers their due respect.
"We talked about being the best receiving corps ever," Taylor said.
"We're moving up toward that now, and as the season progresses, if we can keep this up, there will be no doubt that we're the best group to ever come out of here."
As good as the Aggies' passing game could be in the future, the
key to the offense is the balance created by Derek Farmer, Taylor said.
Kansas put eight men on the defensive line in hopes of stopping the sophomore running back.
The result was one-on-one coverage for Texas A&M's receivers, and a long day for the Jayhawk secondary.

"It was real important for our team to come out and play well early," Francis said. "We needed to rebound from the Oklahoma game and we accomplished that by scoring four goals in the first half."

The second half saw sloppier play for the Jayhawks, with the team scoring once. Smith added her second goal of the game at the 85:43 mark. The goal marked the fifth goal in four games for Smith. The Jayhawks outshot the Bears 24-5.
"We needed someone to step
up for us and have a big weekend," Maggie Mason said. "Jessica did that for us. She is adjusting to the college level and is starting to get in her groove, and that will be real important for us down the road."
The Jayhawks dominated the first half of the game and outshot the Cyclones 9-1 but only managed to get a 1-0 lead out of the effort.
Smith continued her hot streak as her goal in the 68th minute helped the Jayhawks hold off the Cyclones 2-1.
Francis said the team played well in the beginning, which helped control the flow of the game. Later problems hurt the team, however, he said.
"We came out in the second half real flat and did not play to our potential," Francis said. "To compete in this conference in the near weeks we will have to play a complete game."
With the two wins, the Jayhawks improved to 11-2-3 and 4-2-1 in the Big 12 conference.
"It was nice to finally win both games in a weekend," Mason said. "It gave us some much-needed confidence heading into our big weekend in Texas."
The Jayhawks' next game will be at 7 p.m. Friday in Austin, Texas, where they will take on the Texas Longhorns.

"It is an enormously threatening experience for young people," Swall said. "When they realize they are gay or lesbian, they feel alone and they may not meet anyone else who is gay or lesbian. It's more true in our rural schools than in our urban schools."

University won't fill top posts
By Kyle Ramsey
kramsey@kansan.com
kansan staff writer
Two top administrators have left their posts at the University this semester, but the vacancies will remain unfilled.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said not filling the positions was his way of sending a message to the University that losses because of budget cuts were campuswide and that no office was immune.
"We are truly engaged in the process of triving to do more with less," he said.
Both Reggie Robinson, Hemenway's chief of staff, and Rodger Oroke, director of the Energy Savings and Performance Program, left the University this semester. Robinson is now president of the Kansas Board of Regents and Oroke retired after a 27-year tenure at KU.
The responsibilities of the two men will now be divided and redistributed throughout their offices.
"You have to sit down and look at what the parting person did and ask yourself if you can assign those responsibilities to other administrators," Hemenway said. "We've just had to ask three or four people to take over the responsibilities."
Hemenway said he wasn't certain whether these positions would be reinstated in the future.
Orokex primary project, the Energy Saving and Performance program, came to a head in September when the University announced a new energy plan that would save $1.7 million annually in energy costs. Orokex estimated the University spent about $8 million annually in energy costs.
Cindy Strecker, assistant director of Facilities Operations Management Information, will now handle the energy saving plan. She said the shift of responsibility to her from Oroke would not delay the project.
"At this point, he had everything pretty well lined up," she said.

GTAs enjoy pay increase
By Molly Gise mgise@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Hard work pays off — literally, for graduate teaching assistants at the University of Kansas.
Two weeks ago, GTAs saw the first sign of a salary increase the Board of Regents approved last month. It came in the form of a check on Oct. 3 that retroactively paid the difference the salary increase would have made in wages since August.
"I didn't have to worry about paying my rent or asking my roommate to spot me money," Reed said. "It was really nice."
GTAs received their first paychecks that included the increase on Oct.11.
that included the increase on Oct.11. For Alicia Reed, a sociology GTA and Great Bend senior, the check could not have come at a better time.
The two sides tentatively agreed in July to a new three-year contract that included an improved salary package.
The arrival of the checks caps two years of contract negotiations between the University and the Graduate Teaching Assistants Coalition.
City to vote on parking ban ordinance
SEE GTAS ON PAGE 8A

Special to the Kansan
The Lawrence City Commission tonight will try to resolve a dispute between students and a resident who wants parking restricted on Edgehill Road.
The commission will vote on whether to pass an ordinance prohibiting parking on a section of Edgehill Road. The ordinance would ban parking starting at the Louisiana Street intersection and continuing on the right side of the one-way street for 270 feet.
John Allen, Overland Park senior, said about 40 members of his fraternity, Phi Delta Theta, 1621 Edgehill Road, routinely parked their cars along the road. Allen said he was concerned that parking limitations requiring students, particularly members of Sigma Delta Tau sorority, to park farther away would jeopardize their safety. Allen said although some students were not respectful of Watts' and other private properties, many depended on the area to park.
Steven Watts, resident in the 1600 block of Edgehill Road, asked the city in September to restrict parking on the south side of the road to make it consistent with the rest of the neighborhood. It is the only street with parking on both sides, he said.
"He needs to realize he lives by a college campus — because of that there are

going to be students who park around him." Allen said.
Lisa Yeddis, president of the KU chapter of Sigma Delta Tau, 1625 Edgehill Road, said the chapter had no comment on the issue.
Sue Hack, Lawrence mayor, said the city commission understood that limited parking was an inconvenience for people living in the greek houses, but said the ordinance was more of a safety issue. Members of Lawrence-Douglas County Fire and Medical told the commission they were concerned about the ability to get around the corner entrance of the road.
"It's not just the convenience for the property owner." Hack said.
Nick Blasi, Wichita junior, said Phi Delta Theta presented a proposal to Watts two weeks ago to put a sign in front of Watts' house to ban parking 24 hours for two or three car lengths in front of his house.

"My mom tried to make me think I was confused." Doeblin said.
For Kristin Doeblin, Wichita junior, coming out to her friends and siblings wasn't a problem. But her friends and family couldn't imagine how a lesbian could come from a small town, she said.
Her parents eventually accepted her
Family of Gays, Lesbians, Bisexuals and the Transgendered of Topeka and Lawrence, said even ultimate acceptance was not always a possibility for youth struggling to identify their sexuality.
"It is an enormously threatening experience for young people," Swall said. "When they realize they are gay or lesbian, they feel alone and they may not meet anyone else who is gay or lesbian. It's more true in our rural schools than in our urban schools."
Swall experienced a revelation when his daughter came out as a lesbian. Since then, he has been an active member of PFLAG. He helped pressure Lawrence Public Schools to include sexual orientation and gender identity in the school system's anti-discrimination rules.

University won't fill top posts
By Kyle Ramsay

kansan staff writer
Two top administrators have left their posts at the University this semester, but the vacancies will remain unfilled.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said not filling the positions was his way of sending a message to the University that losses because of budget cuts were campuswide and that no office was immune.
"We are truly engaged in the process of truing to do more with less," he said.
Both Reggie Robinson, Hemenway's chief of staff, and Rodger Oroke, director of the Energy Savings and Performance Program, left the University this semester. Robinson is now president of the Kansas Board of Regents and Oroke retired after a 27-year tenure at KU.
The responsibilities of the two men will now be divided and redistributed throughout their offices.
"You have to sit down and look at what the parting person did and ask yourself if you can assign those responsibilities to other administrators," Hemenway said. "We've just had to ask three or four people to take over the responsibilities."
Hemenway said he wasn't certain whether these positions would be reinstated in the future.
Oroke's primary project, the Energy Saving and Performance program, came to a head in September when the University announced a new energy plan that would save $1.7 million annually in energy costs. Oroke estimated the University spent about $8 million annually in energy costs.
Cindy Strecker, assistant director of Facilities Operations Management Information, will now handle the energy saving plan. She said the shift of responsibility to her from Oroke would not delay the project.
"At this point, he had everything pretty well lined up," she said.

GTAs enjoy pay increase
By Molly Gise mgita@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Hard work pays off — literally, for graduate teaching assistants at the University of Kansas.
Two weeks ago, GTAs saw the first sign of a salary increase the Board of Regents approved last month. It came in the form of a check on Oct. 3 that retroactively paid the difference the salary increase would have made in wages since August.
"I didn't have to worry about paying my rent or asking my roommate to spot me money," Reed said. "It was really nice."
GTAs received their first paychecks that included the increase on Oct.11.
For Alicia Reed, a sociology GTA and Great Bend senior, the check could not have come at a better time.
The arrival of the checks caps two years of contract negotiations between the University and the Graduate Teaching Assistants Coalition.
The two sides tentatively agreed in July to a new three-year contract that included an improved salary package.
City to vote on parking ban ordinance

The Lawrence City Commission tonight will try to resolve a dispute between students and a resident who wants parking restricted on Edgehill Road.
The commission will vote on whether to pass an ordinance prohibiting parking on a section of Edgehill Road. The ordinance would ban parking starting at the Louisiana Street intersection and continuing on the right side of the one-way street for 270 feet.
Steven Watts, resident in the 1600 block of Edgehill Road, asked the city in September to restrict parking on the south side of the road to make it consistent with the rest of the neighborhood. It is the only street with parking on both sides, he said.
John Allen, Overland Park senior, said about 40 members of his fraternity, Phi Delta Theta, 1621 Edgehill Road, routinely parked their cars along the road. Allen said he was concerned that parking limitations requiring students, particularly members of Sigma Delta Tau sorority, to park farther away would jeopardize their safety. Allen said although some students were not respectful of Watts' and other private properties, many depended on the area to park.
"He needs to realize he lives by a college campus — because of that there are
"He needs to realize he lives by a college campus because of that there are going to be students who park around him."

going to be students who park around him." Allen said.
Lisa Yeddis, president of the KU chapter of Sigma Delta Tau, 1625 Edgehill Road, said the chapter had no comment on the issue.
Sue Hack, Lawrence mayor, said the city commission understood that limited parking was an inconvenience for people living in the Greek houses, but said the ordinance was more of a safety issue. Members of Lawrence-Douglas County Fire and Medical told the commission they were concerned about the ability to get around the corner entrance of the road.
"It's not just the convenience for the property owner," Hack said.
Nick Blasi, Wichita junior, said Phi Delta Theta presented a proposal to Watts two weeks ago to put a sign in front of Watts' house to ban parking 24 hours for two or three car lengths in front of his house.

Unsuspecting student wins Chancellor-for-a-Day contest
Chancellor-for-a-Day contest
Callie Knoll, Omaha, Neb., freshman, was chosen last night as the winner of the Chancellor-for-a-Day contest.
Sponsored by Student Senate, the contest was part of a campaign to register at least 5,000 student voters. The names of students who registered
were entered into a raffle for the contest.
Knoll had no idea she had won. She said that when she registered, she was unaware of the drawing.
"I don't even know what I get to do," she said. "But the chancellor is going to have a tough class load, because I'm an architecture major."
The next step will be to contact the chancellor's office and find a day when Chancellor Hemenway and Knoll can switch roles.
"I think we're more excited that we're done with the voter registration drive in general," said Johanna Maska, Senate legislative director and Galesburg, Ill., junior.
This is the first year the contest has been used as a tool in Student Senate's voter registration drive. The final total of registered voters will be available this afternoon.

House fire kills two children seriously injures their father
HAYSVILLE — Two children died and their father was seriously injured yesterday when their home south of Havvicle caught fire, authorities said.
Fire officials haven't released the victims' names.
Sedgwick County Sheriff's deputies were the first to arrive at the fire after noon, but were unable to enter the home because it was engulfed in flames. Firefighters who arrived minutes later pulled four people from the home, said Ron Reavis, a division chief for the Sedgwick County Fire Department.
Both of the children, boys ages 1 and 3, were pronounced dead at the home. Their father was listed in serious condition at Wichita hospital. Another victim refused medical treatment.
The children's mother was at work when the fire started, Reavis said.

Rafting adds splash of adventure
By Vonna Keomanyvong

Kansan staff writer
Jared Soares/Kansan
Marissa Stephenson, Tonganoxie sophomore, is an avid rafter and kayaker. Stephenson has been rafting and caeyaking since she was five years old. She has also ridden the Grand Canyon river two times.
Every face in the crowd and every name in the phone book has a story behind it. Each week, Kansan writer Vonna Keomanyvong tells the story of a randomly selected KU student.
For Marissa Stephenson, a whitewater rafting trip is not complete until a 15-foot rapid wave hovers above her head.
The Tonganoxie sophomore said that since she was 5 years old, she had spent nearly half of her sum.
Faces in the Crowd
mery of her mers whitewater rafting. Three months ago, the 19-year-old rode the Colorado River by herself in Desolation Canyon in Utah. The year before that, she went on an 18-day whitewater rafting trip with her father in the Grand Canyon in Arizona.
"When you whitewater raft, you always want to be on the side of a huge rapid," Stephenson said. "As soon as that wave comes up, you know the fun is about to begin. It's an adventure."
Stephenson said there were two kinds of rafting: paddle rafting and oar-rigged rafting. Her father taught her to raft with oars. She said the oars were attached to both sides of the raft, which required good upper body strength.
"I had to lift weights and do a lot of cardio workouts three months before going to Desolation Canyon." Stephenson said.
Her father, RJ, has been whitewater rafting for 20 years. He said although being in the wilderness was fun, rafters had to be aware.
"When you're rafting, you are not just responsible for yourself, but you're responsible for others on your raft," RI Stephenson said. "You just don't survive the day. You have to accomplish little goals during the day to survive through it."
He said Marissa incorporated that awareness into her life.
"My wife and I never have to worry about Marissa, because she's always thinking things through and planning things out," he said. "When she has a problem, she solves it without any help."
Stephenson said the Colorado River was the most difficult river she had ridden. She said riders could go through 10 major rapids in just one day.
Although Stephenson said she loved
being out in the water, she also loved hiking near the river. She said one of her best experiences outdoors was when she hiked nine miles to Tepeats, an underwater channel cave in the Grand Canyon.
Stephenson said she found a red journal in the cave that had the names of 55 people who had been there to see it.
"Just looking at something so precious gives you a sense of pride," she said.
Stephenson said she hoped to be able to tell people stories of the things she did in life.
"The worst thing that can happen is for me to be 85 years old and to think back about the things that I didn't do." Stephenson said. "I don't want to have any regrets about it."

made by the people who parked along the road.
Complaints were made to the fraternity about the litter and trash
Blasi said much of the good the fraternity had contributed to Edgehill Road was often overlooked.
"At least two or three times a year we clean up Edgehill and all the debris. We've worked with the corresponding community to better the environment around us,"
Blasi said.
Shelby Massey, Amarillo, Texas. freshman, said about 25 members of Phi Gamma Delta fraternity parked on Edgehill Road.

University survey studies 'burning' question of tans
The American Cancer Society has found that about 1.3 million non-melanoma skin cancer cases, which account for 40 percent of all cancers, and 53,600 cases of melanoma skin cancer develop every year. The Society partially blames exposure to ultraviolet rays, which are produced by the sun and by tanning beds, for the formation of skin cancer.
College students still are turning to tanning salons for a healthy appearance despite information about the risks, according to a study that was just released this month.
The study, which surveyed 147 college-age men and 342 college- age women in September 1999, found that 47 percent of those surveyed had used a tanning lamp since September 1998. Before then, 15 percent had used a tanning lamp.
Researchers at the Indiana University School of Medicine, Indianapolis, Ind., gave surveys to patients at the university's health clinic to produce the study, which was published in the October issue of the American Medical Association's Archives of Dermatology.
Owners of tanning salons say the figures don't directly condemn the tanning bed as a cause of cancer.
Leo Rottering, owner of Tantoo Tanning Salon, 1410 Kasold Drive, said sunburns caused cancer, not suntans.
The International Smart Tan Association — whose "golden rule" is to never sunburn — supports Rottering's view. According to the group's Web site, Tan-
ningtruth.com, 30 million North Americans agree as well. The site says public debate has lost sight of the benefits of sun exposure.
Mary Ellen Hall, who owns Jamaica Tan, 2311 Wakarusa Drive, said the Food and Drug Administration required her to warn clients that repeated overexposure to ultraviolet rays could cause premature aging and skin cancer.
"However, I do believe that safe, moderate and responsible tanning will greatly reduce those risks," she said.
"A tan is the body's natural defense against sunburn," the site says.
Morgan Langstaff, St. Louis, Mo, junior, said she tanned once or twice a week for relaxation, not a darker look. Langstaff said she didn't consider skin cancer an immediate concern.
Hall said her regulars usually tanned two to three times each week, depending on the season
"It's a possibility, but I figure whatever you do, there's a risk," she said. "Live for the moment."
The study concluded that standards of beauty would have to change before students stopped tanning. Results of the study show that those who thought a tan gave a "healthy appearance" were five times more likely to tan and that education about the dangers of tanning lamps was minimally effective, if at all.
Melissa Smith, health educator at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said Watkins didn't offer information about tanning.
"Maybe it's an area, as college health professionals, we need to look at," she said.

When midterms roll around, what are some things you do to stay stress free or decrease stress levels?
Are animal rights really important?
Yes. We need to respect all living things.
No. There are far more important things to worry about.
I don't know what I think about this issue.
Last Week's Poll
Out of 83 votes, 29 percent thought downloading MP3's was like taking something you haven't paid for and it's wrong, 48 percent thought there is nothing wrong with downloading MP3's, 18 percent thought that it was stealing but it's OK because it doesn't hurt the companies,and 5 percent were not sure.
PERSPECTIVES
Take a big, greasy, tasty bite out of ridiculous animal rights
COMMENTARY
Hell hath no fury like an animal rights activist on a vegetarian rampage.
I say this because two weeks ago I was accosted in Minneapolis by five treehuggers who practically force-fed me soy milk ice cream.
I am a graduate of the University of South Carolina. I have been a lifelong member of the University community and have made many contributions to society. I am passionate about sports and will continue to be a leader in my field.
This reminded me that I haven't written an anti-animal rights column in a long time.
Eric Borja opinion@hansan.com
I totally forgot that I am president of PCTWA, or People for the Consumption or Testing or Wearing of Animals.
I must admit, I haven't organized any protests at organic food stores or vegetarian restaurants, but I have done my part helping the animal-related economy.
I have eaten meat and drank milk every day. I purchased some gorgeous Italian leather shoes that I made sure came from cows that were tortured, and I have gone to the circus to watch elephants pimp themselves by entertaining fans with their incredible feats of strength and stamina.
My rival, PETA, or People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, hasn't been making many headlines around here so I decided to check out its Web site to see what it's protesting these days.
Everything was pretty straightforward. The organizations members are against the usual stuff you hear about like eating meat, zoos, circuses, marine parks, fishing and fur as clothing.
But what boggled my mind was how fervent they were against the consumption of milk.
People are actually taking time to protest milk. Out of every problem in this entire world, from a sniper scare in Virginia, to bombings in Bali, PETA protested the World Dairy Expo because there is "puss in milk."
PETA is also pushing to stop circuses from using animals as entertainment because they think it is humiliating to the animals and because the animals are treated cruelly.
Give me a break. These animals are living the life. They get to travel from city to city entertaining millions of people. Obviously these animals enjoy what they are doing because they do it everyday.
Does PETA know these animals are mad?
No, they don't, because animals don't speak.
Back to the Minneapolis story. I found it ironic that while the cute granola girl berated me because I ate meat and told me I was going to die much sooner because of it, she was smoking a cigarette.
But what really confuses me are PETA's protesting techniques.
PETA encourages and uses guerilla-esque tactics to get its point across. Whether it be spray painting people who are wearing fur coats, showing diners pictures of cows getting slaughtered, or harassing innocent pedestrians, it makes people only more upset instead of proving a point.
So this is an apology to all my loyal chapter members.
I have been slacking off . I hope this latest diatribe will make up for this last year of mediocrity.
Members of PCTWA, keep on living your normal lives despite what PETA or any other veggiehead tells you.
Just remember meat is good, especially on a stick. Boca burgers and soy milk are great lawn fertilizers. Nothing compliments a nice leather couch better than the horns of a deer that you killed yourself. And, please, don't buy any product that hasn't been tested on a lab rat at least a dozen times.

Uninformed voters should stay home, not get out the vote'
Anyone with exposure to television, radio or newspaper must be aware of the impending 2002 mid-term elections. Campaign advertising has become synonymous with October.
Just as campaign ads are an integral part of the election season, so, it seems, are impassioned pleas to dutiful citizens to vote.
Before criticizing such efforts to encourage voting, two points must be clear.
First, the right to cast a meaningful vote is incredible, almost priceless.
Second, when candidates conduct these campaigns in areas likely to support them they are a strategic campaign tool 1
have no objection to the tactic.
Jeff Allmon, Wichita senior and Community Affairs Director of the Student Legislative Awareness Board, said voting campaigns usually hand out information to people who register.
That said, campaigns encouraging citizens to vote are annoying. Typically they focus on the idea that voting, in and of itself, is a great virtue, that it doesn't matter whom you vote for.
GUEST COMMENTARY
However, he said that it was a stretch to expect voters to know all the information about every candidate and to expect them to vote based on specific issues.
GUEST COMMENTARY
Joe Pull opinion@kansan.com
"if they want to base a decision upon a candidate's stance on education, that is their choice. Even if they want to base a decision upon the appearance of a candidate, that too is their choice; and there is absolutely nothing that can be said about the validity or value of that vote versus another," he said.
This argument is ridiculous.
This, it's just plain stupid. If it doesn't matter whom we vote for, elections are a ceremonial futility and a waste of time
Second, the idea that your voting choice doesn't matter ignores the difference between an informed vote and a random one.
There's a reason the United States requires citizens to be 18 before voting; this age is set to ensure that all eligible voters choose thoughtfully.
and money. When someone says your choice doesn't matter, as long as you vote, they trivialize the democratic process.
In that interval, they should ask themselves, "Am I able to cast an informed ballot?" If the answer is yes, they have a democratic obligation to do so.
If the goal in the democratic process is to elect the best candidates, citizens should pause a minute before they vote.
If the answer is no, they should choose
Voting is crucial, a precious gift. For that very reason, it should not be taken lightly. Get out the vote, but only if you know what you believe and you know which candidates represent those beliefe
If you don't know enough to vote wisely, your ballot is static noise that could drown out the ballots of those who know what they are voting about.

Learned additionslightly skewed
By Jenna Goepfert
jgoepertf@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The framework of the threestory, $15 million engineering building in front of Learned Hall is still going up — and a few inches to one side.
A construction worker knocked out a survey stake on the east side of the building and put it back in a few inches away from its original position, said project manager Steve Scannell, design and construction consultant on
the project.
"The contractor's field superintendent mentioned that whoever drove over it put it back in the ground without telling anybody," he said.
Because measurements were made from the misplaced stake, several columns were built offcenter before supervisors realized the stake was misplaced, he said.
"They found out later — oops, something's not right and figured out what happened," Scannell said.
Scannell said the consultant
architect and engineer checked the new column placement and made sure the building would still be structurally sound.
"You won't even be able to notice when the building is finished." Sorem said.
Robert Sorem, associate dean of engineering, said the change would not be a problem.
Scannell said the change would not affect the cost or construction deadlines for the building, which will have 82,000 square feet of classroom and research space. The building is
still expected to be finished by Fall 2003.
"It's just one of those things that happens in construction," Scannell said.
George Oruoch, Nairobi, Kenya, senior and engineering student, said he wasn't concerned about the building's future because the structure had been inspected.
"I'm actually not mad about it because we're human and we make mistakes," he said.

Murder trial raises more questions
The Associated Press
OLATHE — Prosecutors continued their murder case against John E. Robinson Sr.yesterday, as Robinson's brother and sister-in-law testified about their adoption of a baby girl whose mother the Olathe man is accused of killing.
Don Robinson said that after 10 years of marriage, he and his wife, Helen, were still unable to have children. John Robinson agreed to help, his brother testified, and the couple gave him $5,500.
On Jan. 10, 1985, the couple flew from Chicago to Kansas City, signed some documents and met their new daughter, Don Robinson testified in Johnson County District Court.
It was 15 years later that the couple learned that the child they raised as Heather Tiffany Robinson was really Tiffany Stasi, whose mother, Lisa Stasi, John Robinson is accused of killing.
"No way I would have expected that," Don Robinson said.
John Robinson, 58, of Olathe, is charged with first-degree murder in Stasi's disappearance and presumed death; her body has never been found.
He is also charged with capital murder in the deaths of Suzette Trouten, 27, of Newport, Mich., and Izabela Lewicka, 21, a former Purdue University student. Their bodies were found in barrels next to a storage shed on John Robinson's 16.5-acre property near LaCygne, about 60 miles south of Kansas City.
The bodies were in varying stages of decomposition, with nearly a foot of fluid inside the barrels. DNA evidence has linked the victims to John Robinson's mobile home in Linn County.
John Robinson also awaits trial on three murder charges in Missouri.
Helen Robinson, who had taken fertility drugs in effort to have a child, testified that she and her husband tried several adoption agencies in Illinois before turning to John Robinson. Her brother-in-law said he could help and that he knew of an attorney who could arrange everything.
"We were looking legally," she said.
When the couple learned that John Robinson was arrested, they began to become suspicious about their daughter's adoption.
Helen Robinson testified that their daughter found a missing person report for Lisa and Tiffany Stasi on the Internet that included a photo similar to the one they received in 1985 from John Robinson when the adoption occurred. It was a photo of Tiffany with a black background and yellow dress.
Later, Helen Robinson found the photo, compared it to the
Internet picture and knew there was a connection.
The couple said they trusted John Robinson. They allowed him to handle all arrangements, because the attorney, Doug Wood, was "kind of cranky" and it would be easier. The Robinsons never attended any adoption hearings or were interviewed by social workers. Don Robinson testified that the couple had expected to be questioned but figured Kansas laws were different.
Prosecutors appeared to be nearing the completion of their case, which has included more than 75 witnesses, including women who communicated with John Robinson via telephone and the Internet about bondage, discipline and sadomasochistic sexual relations.
The Robinsons were only the second and third family members to testify in the trial, which entered its 11th day.

Supreme Court protects car searches
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court refused yesterday to review a challenge of police powers in car searches, the latest post-Sept. 11 example of the justices' siding with law enforcement in a privacy case.
The case, while not related directly to the government's war against terror, raised questions about police authority, which has come under increased scrutiny. Federal judges are also being asked in other cases to decide whether national security justifies curbing previously recognized civil freedoms.
The case that justices turned down yesterday involved police searching a vehicle without a warrant after the driver failed to produce proper identification or proof of ownership. Justices had been asked to overturn a California ruling that expanded police
powers and allowed the searches. They declined, without comment.
The case involved people whose cars were searched after they failed to give officers their driver's licenses and car registrations. Officers decided to search for registration and found drugs.
The state court said warrantless searches were allowed wherever documents "reasonably may be expected to be found." Previously, authorities were allowed to search a car's sun visor and glove compartment for identification papers without a warrant.
Government search powers and related authority issues before the Supreme Court have received increased attention since the terrorist attacks.
Louisiana State University law professor John Baker said some judges may be influenced by current events. "The careful judges and lawyers are aware of the climate we're in, but they're not going to give in to panic on either side," he said.
Since Sept. 11, 2001, the Supreme Court has ruled that police can question passengers on buses and trains and search for evidence without letting them know they can refuse. Justices also ruled that officers can go into the homes of people on probation to search for evidence of new crimes without always getting warrants. They also agreed to review a ruling that questions the way the government catches and charges suspected drug dealers and terrorists.
National security fears also motivated legal challenges waiting on federal court dockets else where.
"It's a part of a general trend in the Supreme Court and lower federal courts to chip away, sometimes with a big ax and a big whack, at what were 10 to 15
years ago clearly established privacy rights that had support across the political spectrum," said David Kairys, who teaches constitutional law at Temple University.
Ron Right, a criminal law professor at Wake Forest University, warned against reading too much into yesterday's Supreme Court action in the police search case. The Supreme Court gets thousands of petitions each year and reviews about 80, he pointed out.
"They have all sorts of reasons to say no," he said. He acknowledged, however, that "in these times, civil liberties groups and others are especially alert to find signs that the government is overreaching when it investigates, so I think their antennae are up, and I think they are looking at courts for signs."
The cases are Arturo D. v. California, 01-9812, and Hinger v. California, 01-10107.
Democrats say Bush shortchanges science
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON - Two Democratic congressman contended yesterday that the Bush administration is putting ideology over science, citing appointments to advisory committees and the removal of information from Web sites.
Reps. Henry Waxman of California and Sherrod Brown of Ohio demanded explanations in a letter to Health and Human Services Secretary Tommy Thompson.
They complained that information about the effectiveness of condoms had been removed from a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Web site; that experts serving on advisory committees were being replaced because their views do not match the administration's; and that HHS is singling out AIDS groups with probing audits.
In addition, they said, information showing that abortion does not increase the risk of breast cancer was removed from a National Institutes of Health Web site.
"Scientific information ... has
been removed, apparently because it does not fit with the administration's ideological agenda," Waxman and Brown wrote.
They charged that "ideology has replaced scientific qualifications" as HHS chooses members of advisory committees. Among other examples, they pointed to a report on a CDC advisory committee on safe lead levels for children. The report found that nominations of respected academics had been withdrawn and replaced with consultants to the industry.
"We are deeply concerned that stacking advisory committees with individuals whose qualifications are ideological rather than scientific will fundamentally undermine the integrity of scientific decision-making at our leading public health agencies," the Democrats wrote.
HHS spokesman Bill Pierce said it is Thompson's prerogative to appoint whomever he chooses for advisory committees. By contrast, he said, Waxman and Brown "would like all of us to follow their agenda, their liberal agenda, on these issues."
Call to police may have been sniper
The Associated Press
ROCKVILLE, Md. — In a tantalizing turn in the hunt for the Washington-area sniper, investigators said yesterday the killer apparently tried to contact them in a phone call that was too garbled to understand. They pleaded with the person to call back.
The announcement came hours after Virginia authorities surrounded a white van in Richmond, Va., and seized two men. Police later said the men, a 24-year-old Mexican and a 35-year-old Guatemalan, had nothing to do with the case and would be deported for immigration violations.
The most intriguing development came from Montgomery County Police Chief Charles Moose, who is in charge of the investigation.
He did not disclose who received the call, when it was made or other details.
Moose disclosed for the first time that a call had been received from someone of high interest to investigators — but the call was muddled.
But investigators think that the call may have come from the sniper and that the caller was the same person who left a note and phone number Saturday night at the scene of the latest shooting, a law enforcement source told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.
For the second consecutive day, Moose seemed intent on establishing a dialogue with the killer. On Sunday, he publicly pleaded with the note writer to call authorities.
rereaday, he said, "The message that needs to be delivered is that we are going to respond to a message that we have received. We are preparing our response at this time."
Moose said he could not discuss the message further.
The flurry of activity raised hope that there had been a break in the search for the sniper who has killed nine people and critically wounded three others in Virginia, Maryland and Washington since Oct. 2.
The latest attack came Saturday night in a steakhouse parking lot in Ashland, just north of Richmond. The victim, a 37-year-old man, was felled by a single shot to the stomach.
He remained in critical but stable condition at a Richmond hospital yesterday after having his spleen and parts of his pancreas and stomach removed. Surgeons removed the bullet from the victim, and a ballistics test linked the slug to the sniper.
New head restraints, seat backs lower incidence of whiplash
Surgeon Rao Ivatury said the man was conscious,but would need additional surgery in the next few days.
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON - New vehicle head restraints and seat back designs are reducing whiplash, the most commonly reported injury in auto accidents, according to an insurance industry study being released today.
Traditionally, head restraints have been too low and far from a motorist's head to protect against whiplash in rear-end crashes. But
recently many vehicle models have redesigned head restraints and seat backs to keep the motorist's head and torso moving together when the vehicle is hit from behind.
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety examined injury claims for those models before and after the improved head restraints and seat backs were installed and found whiplash claims were cut by as much as one-half.
Whiplash is caused when muscles, ligaments and nerves in the head and neck are jerked suddenly, most commonly in rear-end collisions. Pain can last for as little as a few hours, but sometimes persists for years or even permanently.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates more than 800,000 people get whiplash every year,and related costs total $5.2 billion.
Brian O'Neill, president of the
institute, said many manufacturers ignored whiplash injuries for a long time, assuming many were bogus claims to get insurance money.
"There used to be a view this wasn't a real injury, that this was just the American legal system at work," he said.
"Yes, we've got the fakes and the cheats and the exaggerators, but we've also got people with real injury that can last a long time."
The study examined 2,641 claims from Nationwide, Progressive and State Farm insurance companies for four new designs:
Saab's active head restraints automatically move upward toward the back of the head when an occupant's torso sinks back into the seat during a rear-end crash.
Active restraints reduced whiplash by 43 percent.
Restraints in the Ford Taurus
and Mercury Sable are installed higher, closer to the back of most occupants' heads. Whiplash claims dropped 18 percent with this design.
Whiplash claims dropped 49 percent in the Volvo S70, which has higher head restraints and a special hinge at the bottom of the seat back that allows it to move back during a crash.

Bush pressures Sudan to halt war
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — President Bush yesterday signed a get-tough-on-Sudan resolution meant to prod the government of Africa's largest nation toward ending a 20-year-old war that has killed some 2 million people.
The measure formally condemns human rights violations, alleges the Sudanese government uses food as a weapon and directs the president to impose sanctions against Sudan if he determines its government isn't negotiating in good faith.
Known as the Sudan Peace Act, the resolution carries a variety of possible penalties against Sudan if it negotiates in bad faith. The sanctions could include a downgrade of diplomatic relations, a United Nations arms embargo and attempts to deny the government use of its oil revenues. Bush signed it in the Roosevelt Room, with several lawmakers, former Republican Sen. John Danforth of Missouri, Secretary of State Colin Powell and Sudanese religious and community leaders.
"This act demonstrates the clear resolve of the United States to promote a lasting, just peace; human rights; and freedom from persecution for the people of Sudan," Bush said in a signing statement.
It would authorize $300 million over the next three years for peace efforts — money Congress would have to provide in separate legislation.
"The act is designed to help address the evils inflicted on the people of Sudan by their government — including senseless suffering, use of emergency food relief as a weapon of war, and the practice of slavery," Bush said.
Bush questioned the constitutionality of provisions directing the U.S. government's actions in negotiations, saying the measure "would impermissibly interfere
with the president's exercise of his constitutional authorities to conduct the nation's foreign affairs." He also resisted provisions requiring the administration to report to Congress on American diplomatic activities, "the disclosure of which could impair the foreign relations," Bush said. "The secretary of state will, of course, continue as a matter of comity to keep the Congress appropriately informed of the nation's foreign affairs activities," he added.
The government of Sudan signed an agreement with rebels to suspend fighting during talks to end their 20-year-old war.
Ecuador candidate protests allegations
The Associated Press
GUAYAQUIL, Ecuador — A former army colonel leading in the first round of Ecuador's presidential elections defended himself yesterday against accusations that he is a communist.
Lucio Gutierrez, who probably will face banana magnate Alvaro Noboa in a runoff vote on Nov. 24, said the accusations weren't accurate.
"I'm a military man and as a result I have no ideological formation, no political doctrine," said Gutierrez, 45, in a television
interview. "My only ideology is my country, the Ecuadorean people."
Gutierrez was the surprise of Sunday's elections, surging from fourth place in pre-election polls to take the lead at 20.3 percent, with 62 percent of the votes tallied. Vote counting continued yesterday.
If no candidate receives 50 percent of the vote, the two top votegetters meet in a runoff. The second place candidate, Noboa, had 17.4 percent support.
Noboa set the tone of what may be his campaign for the
runoff when he noted that a communist party was supporting Gutierrez's bid for the presidency.
"I am going to tell the Ecuadorian people that they have two choices: the communism that Lucio Gutierrez represents ... and jobs, health and economic reactivation, which I represent," he said at a news conference in Guayaquil Sunday night.
Gutierrez burst onto Ecuador's turbulent political scene in January 2000 when he led a group of junior army officers and thousands of Indian protesters in a coup that toppled an unpopular president in the midst of Ecuador's worst economic crisis since the Great Depression.
He turned over power to his military commanders, who then swore in Jamil Mahuad's vice president as the new president and expelled Gutierrez from the army for his rebellion.
He described himself as belonging to the center-left and said he hoped Ecuadoreans would let him show them what he stands for before judging him unfairly.
Dutch people to elect leaders
The Associated Press
THE HAGUE, Netherlands The Dutch will vote for a new government in January following the collapse last week of a center-right coalition.
The government yesterday announced a Jan. 22 election date after Queen Beatrix met with the outgoing prime minister, Jan Peter Balkenende, the chairmen of the two houses of parliament, and her chief political adviser.
"Under these circumstances, the majority of the parliament saw no other alternative but to hold new elections," Balkenende said after the meeting in The Hague.
The queen opted for new elections despite a plea to her by the party blamed for the government's downfall to try to patch up the rift and reject the Cabinet's resignation.
Balkenende sent his resignation to Beatrix last Wednesday in what he said was frustration over constant bickering in the Pim Fortuyn's List party, or LPF, the second largest of the three partners in the center-right coalition.
The prime minister said the power struggle within the LPF had rendered the coalition unworkable.
Balkenende will remain as head of the transitional government until a new government is installed.
Over the weekend, an LPF leader, Immigration Minister Hilbrand Nawijn, asked the queen to work toward reconciliation within the coalition to avert the need for elections so soon after the last vote held in May.
As a gesture toward the other two parties, Nawijn said the LPF was willing to relinquish one of its four seats in the Cabinet.
The queen, whose state functions are mostly ceremonial, has some leeway under Dutch law.
Her meetings Monday were her first public contacts outside of her family since her husband, Prince Claus, was buried Oct.15.
Last week, two LPF ministers whose feuding triggered the Cabinet crisis quit their posts in an attempt to rescue the government, but Balkenende was undeterred.

Coffee shops offer artists exposure,marketplace
By Louise Stauffer
lstauffer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
To student artists, coffee houses around Lawrence offer more than a cup o' Joe.
Local coffee houses display artwork in various media and from various ages.
Jared Soares/Kansan
KU students use coffee shops as another way to showcase their talents beyond the school of fine arts.
Irene Beeson, Lawrence senior, has her textile weavings displayed at Aimee's Coffee House, 1025A Massachusetts St.
Beeson said any amount of exposure her artwork got benefited her.
BARRY PARKER
THE MASTER OF CHILDREN'S ART
Beeson said this was the third time she has displayed her work at Aimee's Coffee House. She said displaying her work downtown gives her greater exposure than exhibiting in a gallery on campus could.
Beeson said that coffee house displays have even more benefits than exposure, "I also have the option to sell," she said.
Manda Wilson, a barista at Aimee's Coffee House said displaying artwork was beneficial for the customers' viewing pleasure. Wilson said the exhibits changed once a month there.
Kate von Achen, manager of Z's Divine Espresso, 10 E. Ninth St., said although no KU students' work was currently displayed, the store had displayed in the past.
She said the exhibits usually lasted one or two months, and the artist is allowed as much free coffee as they want.
The photos now displayed on the walls of the Bourgeois Pig, 6 E. Ninth St., are by Jamie Roper, a former KU student.
Roper has been living in the Liaoning province of China teaching conversational English since last March. In his artist statement available at the exhibit, Roper says the exhibit is not art, but a documentary.
Jamie Roper's photo, "Sleeping Waiter," hangs on the wall of The Bourgeois Pig, 6.E Ninth St. Roper, former KU student, and many other KU students' artwork is displayed in Lawrence coffee houses. The Bourgeois Pig and many other coffee houses display student work for their patrons' viewing pleasure.
The exhibit, called "Sleeping Giant," features people sleeping in spots that would seem unusual to Americans: a waiver at a corner restaurant table, a commuter on a train, or a hardware store owner in front of his store. In his statement Roper describes his amazement at his subjects' ability to sleep among the noise created by millions of people.
At Milton's Coffee & Wine, 920 Massachusetts St., and Henry's, 11 E. Eighth St., student artwork is displayed at times.
Molly Murphy, a barista at Henry's, said most artists sold their work displayed in coffee shops and many other businesses around Lawrence.
Vickie Hamilton-Smith, director of communications for the School of Fine Arts, said when students were able to exhibit their work locally, it provided KU and the school of fine arts with visibility.
"The community becomes aware of the quality of students and instructors," she said. "It's an excellent opportunity to express to the community what they've been working on."

The contract established for the first time a minimum salary, which guarantees at least $8,000 for the first year of the contract, $9,000 for the second year and $10,000 for the third year for half-time GTAs.
GTAs

The contract also increases the merit salary pool, from which GTAs are given raises, by 10 percent for each year of the contract.
The pay increase not only soothes the pocket books of GTAs but also increases their enthusiasm for their jobs, Reed said.
it just shows the University is
Lynn Bretz, interim director of University Relations, said students deserved the credit for the GTAs' improved wages. She said the money from increased tuition made it possible for the University to pay GTAs more — something it had wanted to do all along.
more dedicated to helping out GTAs," she said. "It sort of bolsters everyone's dedication to being a GTA."
But the power of the union cannot be ignored in this situation, said Robert Vodicka, lead negotiator for GTAC. The tuition increase has been approved for one year, but the contract is guaranteed for three, he said.
"If they wanted to do this, it
seems to us they could have found a way." Vodicka said. "When were they going to do this if the union did not push the issue?"
GTAs are the only employees to get a salary increase this year, Bretz said. Faculty and staff at the University are still waiting for a raise.
Bretz said that like GTA raises, pay increases for faculty and staff were a matter of resources, or a lack thereof.
"There were plenty of people around here who didn't get salary increases," Bretz said. "It's the state that funds those, and the state is indicating no resources."

Coming out
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
Swull said some queer students even experienced pressure from their friends not to come out, because they feared that they might be rejected by their parents and peers altogether.
"There is a very significant social dynamic," he said. "It reinforces young people being closedet. It further enhances their fear of coming out."
It's not just students that have experienced problems with identifying their sexuality. Some professors have run into problems of their own.
John Younger, professor of classics and Western Civilization, formerly taught for 28 years at Duke University, a school located in the typically conservative state of North Carolina. Younger did not come out as gay until he began teaching at Duke, well after his undergraduate and graduate studies.
Jared Soares/Kansar
"I'm used to discrimination problems," he said.
Younger said when he applied for tenure at Duke, the Promotion and Tenure Committee solicited a negative letter in an attempt to reject his application based on his sexual orientation. A letter was submitted suggesting that Younger did not deserve tenure and he was rejected—until the then university president, Terry Sanford, demanded that Younger's application for tenure be reviewed the following year. He then was granted tenure based on his qualifications.
Chase Richards, McPherson junior, is openly gay. He came out during his senior year of high school. Richards grew up in a small town of only 13,000 people, where coming out is not so easy.
John Burness, Duke's senior vice president of public and government relations, said the university's tenure policies have changed over the years, and "one's sexual preference is not grounds for tenure rejection."
Younger said unlike at Duke
where he received a death threat and had his office door burned twice, things have changed for him and his partner. Paul Rehak, an assistant professor of classics, since moving to Lawrence.
"We've had no problems here." Younger said. "We've been very open."
Rehak agreed, saying sexual orientation wasn't an issue for him at KU.
"I don't get on a soapbox, but I don't try to hide anything," he said.
In the meantime, coming out as queer is still partly an issue of location.
Kirkpatrick said when she first moved to Kansas from California, she experienced a culture shock that cotinine today. She was harassed in public while walking with her partner and many people she met always assumed she was straight.
So she decided to let them know. She began wearing a T-shirt emblazoned with the words, "I love girls."
"I just got to the point where I was sick of people assuming I was straight," Kirkpatrick said. "I just wanted people to think twice."

Depth will lift 'Roy's boys' to Final Four
For my 21st birthday, I thought I would sit down have a beer and ask myself a question — how is the men's basketball team going to improve on last year's Final Four exit and win a national championship?
I then answered my question with another question.
What did past championship teams have that enabled them to reach the Promised Land?
That answer: role players.
Among the great players that propel teams to have great seasons, there are always starting players or bench players who help the team reach greater success. For more evidence on this theory, I looked at last year's championship team and its role players.
The Maryland Terrapins, last year's national champion, are a prime example of role players being a key ingredient to its run at the title. One player who started the final 25 games and helped his team defeat the Jayhawks in the Final Four was forward Chris Wilcox. With key players such as Juan Dixon and Lonny Baxter, opponents struggled to defend the forward who played a masterful tournament. Wilcox did all the little things for the team — rebounding, blocking shots and providing an emotional spark. Against Kansas, Wilcox totaled 18 points, four block shots and nine rebounds.
Kansan file photo
Drew Nicholas also came off the bench and provided solid minutes and three-point shooting. Terence Morris and Steve Blake started but were not the stars of the team. These players combined to score about 19 points a game.
The contributions by the role players helped Dixon and Baxter achieve success and win the national championship.
With my beer almost half gone, I realized that I must get back to my main question. How are the Jayhawks going to improve on last year's team?
Roy Williams and I are thinking on the same terms, as he confirmed my thoughts at Media Day.
"Going into the start, it does look like that the five guys are going to get the majority of minutes," Williams said. "As I said, it's a challenge for us as coaches and those other guys, because you cannot win at this level in college basketball with just five guys."
Kansas had many solid role players last year along with star players. Wayne Simien and Keith Langford were huge for the Jayhawks, combining for almost 16 points a game and nine rebounds Assuming both players move to the starting lineup to fill Jeff Boschee and Drew Gooden's spots, there is questionable talent coming off the bench.
Newcomers to the team are junior college transfer Jeff Graves, freshman Christian Moody, freshman Moulaye Niang and freshman Stephen Vinson. Sophomore Michael Lee and junior Bryant Nash are the only returning players on the bench along with second-year freshman Jeff Hawkins.
This is a scary proposition for a team with a tough schedule. With games against UCLA, Arizona, Texas, Oklahoma and Missouri these players must step up their game to relieve the starters.
Nash has to improve on the dismal one point a game that he averaged last season. Hawkins needs to provide a spark similar to what Langford accomplished last year. Williams has said the 5-foot-11 guard is a good ball-handler and will play both at the point guard and shooting position. He showed at Late Night that athletic skills were not going to be a problem and neither would

Kicker's struggles continue

Johnny Beck, sophomore kicker, puts an extra point through the up-rights against Missouri last year. "I always want to say I can't be a streaky kicker, and that's what I think I'm turning into," said Beck after missing all three of his field goal attempts against Tulsa University.
Consistent place kickers hard to find,recruit coach Mangino says
By John Domoney
jdomoney@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
It may have been four years since Kansas football coach Mark Mangino was an assistant coach at Kansas State University, but Mangino still made time to watch the fourth quarter of the Texas-Kansas State game last Saturday night
Mangino looked on as Longhorn place kicker Dusty Mangum made a 27-yard field goal with 1:32 left in the game that put Texas ahead 17-14.
Kansas State place kicker Jared Brite, who already had an extra point blocked in the second quarter, failed to tie the game with seven seconds left as his 56-yard field goal attempt was blocked, giving the Longhorns the hard fought victory.
The struggles of the Wildcat kicking game struck home with Mangino who has watched other teams mirror the struggles of the Kansas kicking game.
"We're not alone," Mangino said. "The only thing we could put our finger on is that less and less kids are specialized in kicking and more and more are playing other positions and just kicked for their high school team."
When the season began Mangino never expected anything but consistency from Jayhawk place kicker Johnny Beck, who was nominated for the Lou Groza award.
Instead, Beck has connected on only 5 of 12 field goal attempts, and he has missed three points after touchdowns.
Last Saturday against Texas A&M, Beck looked as if he were back on track with a 35-vard field goal in the third quarter.
hawks, and Beck had the ensuing 40-yard field goal partially blocked, which extended his missed field goal streak to six.
The kick was called back because of an illegal procedure penalty against the Jay-
"I always want to say I can' be a streaky kicker, and that what I think I'm turning
into," said Beck after he missed all three of his attempted field goals against Tulsa University on Sept. 28 in Tulsa, Okla.
Beck's kicking partner punter Curtis Ansel has enjoyed the success and consistency that has eluded Beck so far this season.
Ansel recently was added to the Ray Guy Punter of the Year Watch List and averages 42.3 yards per punt. He is ranked sixth in the Big 12 and 23rd in the country.
Ansel also had 19 punts downed inside the 20-yard line, and he had an 83- yard punt against Baylor on Oct. 5 that set a Big 12 record.
Although punting has been one of the most consistent parts of Kansas' game this season, Mangino has seen a trend in high school football that makes recruiting kicking talent a much harder job.
"If you need a quarterback, you go get him and sign him right away," Mangino said. I think that kids realize that too, that the fastest way to earn a Division I scholarship is to be at one of those positions that will play from the line of scrimmage every snap."
Notes
The Kansas State game on Nov. 2. has been scheduled to start at 1 p.m.
Junior tailback Reggie Duncan was suited up Saturday against Texas A&M, but he did not play. Mangino told reporters that Duncan's hamstring continued to hamper the tailback.
Junior cornerback Remuise Johnson is now third on the Kansas list for interceptions in a single season with six. The six interceptions are the most in the Big 12 conference.

Drew Gooden — Memphis Grizzlies
In his first week as a pro, Gooden averaged a double-double. He continued the same pace over the last seven days. Gooden had at least 14 points and 10 rebounds in his three games this past week, including 21 points and 18 rebounds coming off of the bench Saturday against Chicago. Averaging 19.1 points per game and 12.7 rebounds per game through seven preseason contests, he is considered an early front-runner, along with 19-year old Phoenix Suns rookie forward Amare Stoudemire, for Rookie of the Year honors.

This preseason has not been very kind to the former Jayhawk All-American, as the starting point-guard job

Weekend border war to fuel Kansas' rivalry with Mizzou
By Kelly McNearney
kmcnearney@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Mizzou. Just the word nauseates most fayhawks. Images of black and gold and an oversized kitty cat make Kansas fans shudder.
Not for fear of defeat by the Columbia clan,but for sheer disgust do Kansas fans detest the Tigers.
The border war heightens this weekend as the Jayhawks march into Columbia for the Tigers' homecoming football game at 1 p.m. Saturday.
Columbia could be considered a danger zone for anyone wearing crimson and blue.
"Once my car got egged in Columbia, because I had a Kansas sticker on it," said Matt Coonan, St. Louis senior. "That fueled the flame. I used to not like them. Now I hate them."
Missouri takes great pride in its homecoming and claims that it began the tradition nearly a century ago.
According to the Missouri Alumni Association, the nation's first homecoming game occurred in Columbia in 1911 when Chester Brewer, then football coach and athletics director, invited Missouri alumni to "come home" for the annual football game against Kansas. That game resulted in a 3-3 tie.
"Our homecoming is ridiculous, especially when we play KU," said Jenny Burke, University of Missouri senior. "It's always been a huge rivalry. It's drilled into our heads when we get here."
Further irking Kansas fans is the drum Big Mo which the Tigers pay homage to at home games.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 22).
Continue your studies this year. They'll make a big difference. Cut through the fluff and get down to the basics. Symbolism is out of style. It's substance you need. Sell that and make your fortune.
Aries (March 21-April 19). Today is a 8. You could set up a system that brings in a lot—not just now but well into the future. It might involve furthering your education.
Taurus (April 20-May 20). Today is a 6. A complicated scheme will run into difficulty, so don't gamble with your resources. Keep it simple to win.
Gemini (May 21-June 21). Today is a 7. Feeling the pressure of old obligations? Finish those up before taking on a new project. And hurry. The new project is waiting in the wings.
Cancer (June 22-July 22). Today is a 7. Your friends won't let you spend a cent on something they can give. And vice versa, of course, so work out an equitable trade.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). Today is a 6.
If you're feeling compelled to take control, relax. It's totally natural. Talk about what you're discovering with someone who can help you do something about it.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Today is a 7.
A very interesting person would be delighted to have more of your attention.
It may not be easy to make the connection, but do what you can without forgetting to do your job.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Today is a 6.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22). Today is a 7. Put romance on hold for a while and take care of business. Once you get a little more security, a celebration will be more appropriate (and more affordable).
Crab
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21). Today is a 6.
No point banging your head against a brick wall. Send your best information to a person who can get through or go around and do something with it.
Two people standing side by side.
LION
Scorpion
Focus your immense mental energy on finishing your task. One of your past difficulties may have been a tendency to get distracted easily. Bring yourself back into focus.

P
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Today is a 8. You're very practical, but every once in a while you blow your budget in the name of love. At the time, you'll think it's totally appropriate, and it may be. This could happen again soon.
SÉCURITÉ SUR LA JUSTICE
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Today is a 7. Don't assume that anything will work the way it once did. Check and double-check your equipment. Actually, this is a good day to stay home in bed.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). Today is an 8. If you get the chance to go back to school, accept. Otherwise, keep up your studies on your own. This is important now.

Richard Johnson, dean of students at Kansas, served six years as director of student life at Missouri before coming to Kansas two years ago. Johnson sees differences between the two school's cheering sections.
"Their fans are misbehaved," Johnson said. "When I was over there I was embarrassed by their cheering. They threw things at our band and at the team."
Johnson said more people at Kansas than Mizzou knew the roots of the rivalry. On the morning of Aug. 21, 1863, William Quantrill and roughly 300 guerillas raided Kansas from Missouri. They attacked and burned Lawrence killing residents and robbing businesses and homes.
Kansas fans furious.
"I was there six years and no one could ever tell me why we had the rivalry." Johnson said.
They may not know the origins of their hatred, but both Kansas and Missouri fans will clash again on Saturday, and the rivalry will surely continue for years to come.
Kansas hopes to even the alltime series this weekend. Missouri currently leads Kansas 51-50-9.

The recovery period typically is four to six months, team physician Matt Matava said yesterday. Matava said Williams should regain mobility in about two months.
The injury probably won't threaten the career of the 34-year-old Williams.
During the 20-minute operation Sunday night, a screw was inserted into Williams' ankle to compress bones that separated and to promote healing in the ligaments. The broken bone in his leg will heal on its own, Matava
"It's obviously a season-ender, but not typically a career-ender," Matava said.
said.
Williams, a seven-time Pro Bowl pick, missed the first game of his career two weeks ago when turf toe sidelined him against the 49ers. He was in tears as he was carted off the sideline.
Matava said Williams told him he'd had only one other operation in his career, an elective arthroscopic procedure on a knee.
"He told me nothing like this has ever happened before," Matava said. "Here he is, being taken off a cart, and I think he was upset."

Kliff Kingsbury, who passed for a Big 12-record 500 yards and five touchdowns this weekend, was named the conference's offensive player of the week yesterday.
Oklahoma safety Brandon Everage and Oklahoma State defensive tackle Kevin Williams were co-defensive players of the week, and Texas kicker Dusty Mangum was special teams player of the week
Kingsbury completed 49 of 70 passes in Texas

Tech's 52-38 win over Missouri on Saturday. Kingsbury passed the 10,000-yard mark in career passing yardage (10,328) and total offense (10,253) and established a NCAA Division I-A record for career completions (1,038).
Everage had two interceptions, broke up four passes, had one sack and a quarterback hurry in No. 2 Oklahoma's 49-3 win over Iowa State. He keyed a defensive effort that held the Cyclones to just 60 yards of offense.
Williams had nine solo tackles and an assist, two tackles for losses of 13 yards and a sack for an eight-yard loss as Oklahoma State defeated Nebraska 24-21 — the Cowboys' first win over the Cornhuskers since 1961.
Mangum kicked a game-winning 27-yard field goal with 1:32 left in No. 7 Texas' 17-14 victory at No. 20 Kansas State.

Receiver ends retirement to join Dolphins
The Associated Press
MIAMI — The Miami Dolphins lured Cris Carter out of the broadcast studio and out of retirement thanks to some arm twisting by one of their biggest fans: Dan Marino.
The former quarterback persuaded HBO colleague Carter to put his TV career on hold
and join the Dolphins to bolster their injury-plagued receiving corps.
Carter, who ranks second to Jerry Rice in career receptions
S
and touchdown catches, signed a one-year contract yesterday that will pay him $550,000, with another $700,000 possible through incentives.
"Marino's crazy," said Carter, who turns 57 next month.
When the Dolphins first contacted Carter Wednesday, he was reluctant to return. Marino swayed him.
"I had squashed the whole idea—I'm not going to do it". Danny and I were getting ready to go into the studio, and I tell him, and he just goes ballistic — 'You've got to do
it. You can still play. It's a great sit-
uation for you."
By Saturday, Carter had a tentative deal with the Dolphins, and their 23-10 loss Sunday to Buffalo underscored the need to upgrade the passing game. Ray Lucas threw four interceptions in his first start since 1999, and Dedric Ward and James McKnight — pressed into starting roles because of injuries — combined for just four catches.
The Dolphins (5-2) still lead the AFC East, and Carter thinks they can help him win a Super Bowl ring, one of the few accomplishments to elude him during a
15-year NFL career.
"This is not an individual thing," Carter said. "It's more about the opportunity with this team... If they were 3-4, I wouldn't be here."
Following a news conference to announce the signing, Carter reported for his first team meeting. With two weeks to prepare for Miami's next game at Green Bay on Nov. 4, Carter said he was in good shape and expected to learn the offense quickly.
Coach Dave Wannstedt and his players said they would welcome Carter's input and experience.
Privately funded Giants' stadium a rarity
The Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO — A 10-ton fiberglass mitt overlooks the left-field bleachers. Boats crowd into McCovey Cove behind right field, with all hands on deck waiting for homers. A bronze
statue of White Mays s among 24 palm trees.
All are unique to Pacific Bell Park, the 41,503-seat waterfront home of the San Francisco Giants with
GIANTS
spectacular views of the Bay Bridge and the distant Oakland hills.
What really sets the $357 million downtown stadium apart, though, is its distinction as the only privately financed major league stadium built in the last four decades.
And that is turning into a curse for other teams across the country that have been trying to convince
state legislators and voters that tax money is needed to build new stadiums.
In St. Louis, where the Cardinals seek government help for a proposed downtown ballpark, opponents of public funding cite Parc Bell Park as they campaign
for a Nov. 5 referendum
a Nov. 5 referendum seeking to restrict the city's ability to use tax dollars for a new stadium.
In Minnesota, state Sen. John Marty introduced an amendment this year to compel Twins officials to go to San Francisco to see how a privately financed ballpark can be built. It was narrowly defeated.
"If San Francisco can do it, the Twin Cities can do it," says Marty, who for years has waged an often lonely battle against public funding. "I'm not suggesting it's easy to do it that way, but if every community could do it the way San
Francisco has done it,it would be a lot better for those cities and for baseball."
The Giants say private financing only worked in their case because they built the park at a time when San Francisco and Silicon Valley were flush with cash from booming technology companies.
"We had a very strong economy in the late 1990s, a strong company base and a storied franchise," says Giants chief operating officer Larry Baer, who assembled $75 million in sponsorships — including $50 million in naming rights fees from Pacific Bell — and $75 million from 15,000 charter seat licenses.
Giants president Peter Magowan says most other teams couldn't build a stadium without public funds, and that even the Giants couldn't do it now.
"You cannot expect a private ballpark to be built in Cincinnati
or Milwaukee, there's not the economic base there. It's not the Silicon Valley," he says. "And we couldn't do it today. We were very lucky in our timing — we had low interest rates and a very good economy."
The Giants owners had no choice but to use private money
voters defeated four referendums between 1987 and 1992 that sought public funds for a replacement for wind-swept Candlestick Park, where the NFL's 49ers still play.
Two of those ballot measures would have involved moving the team an hour south to the San Jose area.
Former owner Bob Lurie got so frustrated that he agreed to sell to a group planning to move the Giants to Tampa, Fla., but that deal was blocked by other owners. Lurie ended up selling the club in late 1992 for $100 million to a group headed Magowan.

Killing spree delays movie debut
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — With a deadly sniper terrorizing the suburbs of the nation's capital, 20th Century Fox has decided to delay the release of a thriller about people being pinned down in a phone booth by a gunman they can't see.
Phone Booth, starring Kiefer Sutherland as the shooter, was to open Nov. 15.
But the studio postponed its release after a sniper killed nine people in suburban Washington, D.C., said Flo Grace, a 20th Century Fox spokeswoman. A new opening date has not been set.
Another movie with a similar theme, Interview with the Assassin will open as scheduled Nov. 15 in New York and Los Angeles, said Eamonn Bowles, president of Magnolia Pictures, which is
Screenwriter Larry Cohen, who wrote Phone Booth three years ago, has said he wouldn't mind if the studio held back the film, in which the shooter lures victims inside a phone booth, then threatens to kill them if they hang up.
"We're monitoring the situation, but right now we plan to go ahead with the release. Basically we're playing it by ear, seeing what the mood of the country is like."
Eamonn Bowles president of Magnolia Pictures
distributing the film.
The movie, about an exMarine who claims he shot President Kennedy, opens in more cities Nov.22—the 39th anniversary of Kennedy's assassination.
"We're monitoring the situation, but right now we plan to go ahead with the release," Bowles said Wednesday. "Basically we're playing it by ear, seeing what the mood of the country is like."
Phone Booth was a relatively low-cost film for Fox, with a budget of about $12 million. Colin Farrell, who co-starred as an investigator in this summer's Minority Report, stars in Phone
Booth as a man targeted for attack by a shooter who wants to punish strangers for their misdeeds.
This is director Joel Schumacher's second consecutive film to be delayed because of troubling similarity to news events.
His Anthony Hopkins-Chris Rock comedy Bad Company, about U.S. agents trying to disarm terrorists in Manhattan, was supposed to debut last December. After the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, Bad Company was put off until June, when the $70 million adventure collected only about $30 million at the domestic box office.
Schumacher's agent directed calls for comment back to Fox.
Other movies delayed for months after Sept. 11 included Collateral Damage, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger as a firefighter seeking revenge for a terrorist bombing, and the ensemble comedy Big Trouble, which involved smugglers with a nuclear warhead on a jetliner. Both films also performed poorly when they finally debuted.

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN = 5B
Homers at San Francisco stadium were less frequent before Series
The Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO — Just mention Pacific Bell Park and what's the first image that comes to mind? Barry Bonds plopping balls into the water, of course.
Funny thing about that picture:
It's out of focus.
Believe it or not, there were fewer home runs hit at Pac Bell this year than any ballpark in the majors. And that's fine with the Giants as the World Series shifts to San Francisco for Game 3 tonight.
The Anaheim Angels and Giants already have combined to hit 11 homers, by far a record for the first two games of any World Series. After Tim Salmon connected twice Sunday night and sent the Giants to an 11-10 loss that left them with a split at Edison Field, they were eager to return home.
"For all the fans who like to see teams scoring runs and stuff, yeah, it was a great ballgame to watch," shortstop Rich Aurilia said.
"It's not the typical type of game you want to be involved in. We'd rather see a lower-scoring game."
"People who have never been to our park probably will be in for
WORLD SERIES
2002
a surprise at the kind of hitter's park it is. It's not much of one. So I don't think we'll see 21 runs scored," he said.
J. T. Snow, who has one of the Giants' seven homers, agreed.
"We'd like to get back to our park, play our style of game, keep some of those balls in the ballpark and see what happens," he said.
Right after Hall of Famer Willie Mays throws out the first pitch, the rules change as Pac Bell hosts its first Series game. No more designated hitter in the NL park, and the Giants like that a lot as the emphasis goes from longballs to small ball.
Minus DH Brad Fullmer, the Angels could be at a big disadvantage — the same scenario AL teams face each other when they go on the road in the World Series.
San Francisco figures to enjoy an edge on the mound and at the plate when Livan Hernandez pitches against Ramon Ortiz in Game 3.
Alongwithbeing6-0lifetimein the postseason, Hernandez
Hernandez is at 242 with 99 career hits, including four home runs and 39 RBIs. Plus he's put down 34 sacrifice bunts, 10 of them this season.
swings a pretty good bat.
Ortiz is another story. He's 0-for-14 lifetime, with five strikeouts and no successful bunts.
"We do have a bit of an advantage with the pitchers. Our pitchers are used to hitting and bunting," Giants manager Dusty Baker said. "Now we're going back to play National League ball."
"I don't really anticipate 11-10 in our ballpark," he said.
Oh, there was that game at Pac Bell last Aug. 6: Giants 11, Cubs 10.
But Baker's point was made. Other than that Cubs-Giants affair, there weren't any games in San Francisco this year when the teams totaled more than 17 runs.
That's OK with Anaheim manager Mike Scioscia, who learned his strategy in the NL while catching 13 seasons for Los Angeles.
The Angels reflected that style in the first two games. They aggressively ran the bases, including Fullmer stealing home, tried to hit-and-run and bunted.
"We're not always going to pound the ball," Scioscia said.
Hurricanes top polls,but BCS picks Oklahoma in first ranking
Miami is No. 1 just about everywhere but where it counts most — in the Bowl Championship Series standings.
The Associated Press
The Hurricanes, No. 1 since the preseason in the AP media and coaches' polls, were second behind Oklahoma in the first
BCS standings released yesterday. And look who's third—Notre Dame!
Thanks to friendly computer ratings and a schedule rated toughest in the nation, the Fighting Irish are in position to make a run at the national championship.
BOWL
CHAMPIONSHIP
SERIES
The BCS standings are used to determine which teams play in a national title game. The teams that finish 1-2 in the final BCS standings on Dec. 8 will play for the title in Tempe, Ariz., at the Fiesta Bowl on Jan. 3.
Notre Dame may be No. 6 in the AP poll, but the Fighting Irish were ranked first by four of the seven computers used by the BCS. Only the top six rankings are used in the BCS calculations
The best the Hurricanes could do in the computers was one second-place ranking. Miami's strength of schedule was rated 27th, but it will get stronger with upcoming games against Tennessee and Virginia Tech.
The Holks were fourth, followed by Georgia, Ohio State, Washington State, Michigan, LSU and Texas. The first six teams are undefeated.
The BCS formula uses the AP media and
coaches' polls, the computer polls, strength of schedule, won-loss record and a bonus-point system.
New this year is the elimination of margin of victory from the computer ranking process.
For the second straight year, Oklahoma starts out in first place. The Sooners, 6-0 after a 49-3 win over Iowa State, had 3.92 points — 2 for poll average, 1.50 for computer-rank average, 0.52 for strength-of-schedule, zero for losses and a one-tenth of a point bonus deduction for a victory over Texas.
Miami had 6.41 points — 1 for poll average, 4.53 for computer average, 1.08 for strength of schedule, zero for losses and no bonus-point deduction.
Notre Dame had 7.07 points -6 for poll average, 1.33 for computer average, 0.04 for strength of schedule and three-tenths of a point bonus deduction for a win over Michigan.
Virginia Tech was at 8.63, Georgia at 8.69 and Ohio State at 8.89.
The bonus award is based on a sliding scale from 1.0 points for beating a first-place team down to .1 for a win over the 10th-place team. Last year, the sliding scale started at 1.5 points.
Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops says the standings don't matter - yet.
The BCS standings will be released each Monday throughout the season.
"It's too early right now for us to care one way or the other." Stoops said. "What we do care about is winning. We're going to keep our focus and total concentration on winning the Big 12 South first."

raw talent. Lee also had a solid off-season and hoped to come off the bench and become a physical guard who could shoot the ball.
A big question mark for Kansas is Graves. With much preseason hype, Williams did not seem optimistic about Graves' contribution to the team before practices started.
"He's officially not a member of our team yet," Williams said at Media Day. "He hasn't passed either of the running tests. There's probably been too much said about him. I'll just leave it at that."
With those strong comments from the head coach and a preseason weight of 275 pounds, I am not looking for Graves to be a crucial part to the team.
Niang, Moody and Vinson are all freshmen with performances vet to be determined.
My beer is now finished and I have come to an answer to my original question.
This year's Kansas squad has an amazing starting five that can play with any team in the country. In order for this team to march deep into the NCAA tournament, bench players must provide solid performances in the season to come.

Leadership minor shapes student skills

students pursuing the leadership minor will complete the curriculum this fall. Students in the program said it provided an

opportunity to nurture the leadership skills that every student possesses.
"I think people kind of think it has to be the loud ones," said Laura Dakhil, Wichita junior, about students who would be interested in the minor. "We all take different roles. It's for the quiet ones, the loud ones, the passive ones, the aggressive ones."
There are about 35 students participating in the minor, said Paul Friedman, associate professor of communications studies and chairman of the Leadership Minor Advisory Committee.
Participants in the minor must complete a 19-credit-hour requirement, including courses in communications, culture, community development and ethics.
The final requirement is a capstone class in which students plan and execute a "legacy" service project.
"You get hands-on experience before you even get out of school " said Bill Weaver, Hinsdale, Ill., junior.
He said for his project he was trying to institute an off-campus recycling program.
Weaver, a political science major, said he was involved in leadership activities during high school and chose the minor because of the interrelation of politics and leadership and the program's real world relevance.
"A lot of the classes you take in college you're not going to use — you're not going to need to know Antigone," he said. "You can't beat this experience."
Friedman said students like Weaver, who have had previous leadership experience, were often those who chose the minor. He said the curriculum helped students understand the choices, ways of thinking and tools available to them when they entered the work force.
The leadership minor is not listed in the course catalog, but students can find more information through the communications studies Web site.

The Washington, D.C area sniper may be miles away from the University of Kansas, but students with ties to the area are still concerned.
Allison Love, Bethesda, Md. freshman, traveled home for fall break this past weekend. She said she did not expect the fatal sniper-style shooting that occurred yesterday in Mongomery county, where she is from. "When I left for home, everybody was talking about the sniper and I just thought, 'whatever.' But then it happened," she said.

The red dots represent 13 shootings law enforcement officials suspect were committed by a serial sniper. There is a 14th shooting that occurred in Maryland, north of Washington, D.C., but authorities have not yet connected it to the other 13. The blue dots represent the hometowns of three University of Kansas students who live near the area.
Love said she was searched three times before flying to the Washington, D.C. airport. She said she noticed increased security everywhere she went.
"On my way to a party, the police pulled me over, searched my cer, and asked me where I was going," she said. "There were checkpoints on all the highways in and out of Maryland."
Investigators are not the only ones in these towns reacting to the sniper's attacks. Love said some of the school administrators were not letting students or teachers to leave the building during school hours.
One of the previous sniper attacks hit close to home for Love. She has been to the Home Depot in Falls Church, Va. where 47-year-old Linda Franklin was shot Oct. 14.
Love said her mom made her pay for full-service gas pumping so she would not have to get out of the car. Four of the 13 shootings
occurred at gas stations.
Even though Love said the increased security made her feel safer, she said she thought people in the area were overacting.
"People are just living in fear and that is exactly what the sniper wants," she said.
Police said the latest shooting was similar to the previous ones and that they were investigating whether 35-year-old Conrad Johnson was the roving suburban sniper's 10th fatality victim out of 13 shootings.
Johnson was shot from a far range as he was standing on the top step of a bus in a layover area, according to The New York Times. Johnson had arrived early to his job at Ride-On commuter bus service.
The shootings have occurred in the Virginia and Maryland suburbs around Washington D.C. Ballistics experts who have studied the firearms used in the crimes have linked all the sniper's shootings to a long-range, high-powered rifle.
Samantha Taylor, Woodbridge, Va. freshman also has family living in the area of the attacks.
"I've been calling my parents every day," she said. "I'm scared something may happen to them, and since I'm here I can't see them to make sure they are okay."
Taylor said she could understand the area's increased security measures.
"I think it's a really good thing the police are putting forth an effort," she said. "They need to do what they can to find him."
Noa Goldberg, Olney, Md. freshman, said people should not stop their daily activities because of the sniper. The shooting yesterday happened about 10 minutes away from Goldberg's parents' house.
"Everybody feels like they are going to be the next victim," she said. "Everyone's lives have been turned around. People are scared to even go outside."
But Goldberg said she did not feel as much fear as some people from her hometown. "You just have to live life normally," she said. "You can't just stop going to the supermarket."

Food banks running low
BILLIE'S BAKERY
Paula Gilchrist, director of social services for the Salvation Army, 946 New Hampshire St., says that food donations have been unusually low this year. "It's very sad, not being able to help," she said.

News agencies continue to report on unstable economic conditions as segments of the economy are still feeling the crunch — including social service organizations.
Chip Blaser, development director of the Ballard Community Center, 708 Elm St., said the organization's food donations are at a two-year low, and the problem could grow worse during the winter months when the need for donated foods increases.
"We've had an increased demand this year." Blaser said. "There seems to be an increased number of people who can't make ends meet."
A group of social work students has responded to the shortage by organizing a food drive to meet demands for the holidays.
Members of the Bachelor of Social Welfare Student Organization began their campaign on Monday and the drive will last until Nov. 18. All Dillons and Hy-vee locations in Lawrence will serve as drop sites for desired non-perishable goods.
Liz Snyder, Wichita senior and member of the group, said the community should work together to contribute when less food becomes available to those in need. She said the food drive does not serve as school credit — it's simply an
effort to assist local service agencies.
Laura Henry, Fort Scott senior and member of the group, said Ballard Community Center and the Salvation Army were chosen as beneficiaries of the food drive because of the amount of work they do in the community.
Paula Gilchrist, director of social services for the Salvation Army, 946 New Hampshire St., said the organization
"This is not a requirement," she said. "This is a group of students who are passionate about helping people and the community."
could use all the help it could get.
Richard Forney, administrator for the Salvation Army, said requests for donated food had nearly doubled this year compared to last year.
"We give out food every three months, but we don't give enough food to last three months." Gilchrist said.
"With the economic situation as it is, more people are coming to us for help with their food needs," he said.

Livestock show trying
to attract new audience
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Organizers of one of the Midwest's biggest livestock events are trimming the fat in an attempt to bolster sagging attendance.
Events at the American Royal have been condensed from nine weeks to four, and organizers have gone after more sponsors.
"There was doubt about the Royal's future," said Royal president and chief executive George Guastello. "If a business is not giving customers what they want, they're not going to be in business any more. I think the Royal's future will probably be different even than what it is today."
American Royal is one of the oldest and most-beloved traditions in Kansas City, with thousands of animal enthusiasts flocking to the city each October and November for an event that includes horse and livestock shows, a rodeo, music concerts and a giant barbecue.
But demand for tickets has been weak in recent years, and officials are hoping their changes lead to a turnaround.
Other changes in store this year include a national saddle-horse championship and a competition for performers wanting to sing the national anthem.
The idea was that singers and their friends and families who may never have attended the Royal would be attracted because of the performance
Investigators take stand in Missouri murder case
OLATHE — Investigators testified Tuesday about the grisly discovery of three women's bodies inside barrels in June 2000 in a Raymore, Mo., storage locker rented by John E. Robinson, Sr.
It was the first physical link to the deaths of the three women in Missouri to Robinson, whose multiple murder trial entered its 12th day in Kansas.
Prosecutors say the Missouri deaths were part of a common pattern or scheme that Robinson carried out on
both sides of the state line involving sadomasochistic sex and financial gain.
Two more women's bodies were found in barrels on Robinson's property in Linn County, Kan., about 60 miles from Kansas City.
Dr. Thomas Young of the Jackson County, Mo., medical examiner's office identified the bodies as Beverly Bonner, 49, of Cameron, Mo., Sheila Faith, 45, and her daughter Debbie, 16, both formerly of California.
Because of the state of decomposition, the bodies were identified with medical and dental records dating to the early 1980s.

Few Maryland farmers expected to take loans
ANNAPOLIS, Md.—Farmers in most of Maryland will be able to apply for low-interest federal loans to help them deal with this year's drought, but some doubt many farmers will take advantage of the offer.
Gov. Parris Glendening requested the federal disaster designation from the U.S. Department of Agriculture in August.
The declaration, which applies to every county except one, entitles farmers who have suffered at least a 30 percent loss in their crop production to seek loans that can be paid back over as long as seven years at a 3.75 percent interest rate.
However, Valerie Connelly, director of governmental relations for the Maryland Farm Bureau, said she expects few farmers will apply for the loans.
"Many of them have so many loans they can't afford to take any more," she said.
When a similar loans were made available during the 1999 drought, only about 100 Maryland farmers out of about 14,500 total took advantage of the loans, according to the USDA's Maryland State Farm Service Agency.
However, Connelly said many more farmers were looking forward to additional aid that comes with the disaster declaration for those raising livestock.

Hawk Nights party offers good time without alcohol
By George Schulz
Kansan staff writer
gschulz at gschulz.com
A committee of students met yesterday to put together the finishing touches for tomorrow's Hawk Nights scheduled from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m.at the newly-renovated Hawk's Nest in the Kansas Union.
Sponsored by the Student Organization and Leadership Development Center, the event will include free food and drinks, a pumpkin-carving contest with cash prizes, a psychic and tarot card reader and free bowling.
The center organized Hawk Nights three years ago as an alcohol-free social event to entertain students.
The event has a different theme each month.
"Our event is showing that there are other things to do that don't involve alcohol that are fun," said Paige Isaacson, president of the Hawk Nights Committee.
Organizers for the event did not condemn the consumption of alcohol among students, but they did say information about alcohol abuse would be available at Hawk Nights. This week's event coincides with Alcohol Awareness Week.
Aaron Quisenberry, associate director of the center and organizer for the event, said Hawk Nights offered more than an alternative to drinking.
"I don't think we're necessarily targeting students who go to bars," he said. "If you're going to drink, you're going to out and drink. We're offering a program for students whether they drink or not."
Quisenberry said attendance at Hawk Nights had averaged about 300 to 400 students in the past.
"If you're going to drink,you're going to go out and drink. We're offering a program for students whether they drink or not."
Aaron Quisenberry
Associate director of the Student
Organization and Leadership Development
Center
Hawk Nights is funded by an annual $20,000 grant from the city of Lawrence and a yearly $5,000 allotment from Student Senate.
He said Hawk Nights events held at the beginning and end of the semester tended to have lower turnout.
The money from the city comes from an accrued city-wide liquor sales tax, which also goes to recreation and alcohol prevention programs.
Spenser Harris, Kansas City, Mo., freshman, said he had attended a Hawk Nights event with his friends, enticed by the free food and cash prizes.
Students had mixed feelings about the success of Hawk Nights.
But Eric Dunlap, Lawrence junior, said neither he nor anyone he knew had ever attended Hawk Nights.
"To me it seems like something freshmen would do," he said.
Sam Richardson, Larned junior, concurred.
Organizers for Hawk Nights will distribute free hot chocolate along with information about the event today on Wesco Beach. For more information go to www.ku.edu/~hawknites.

Author speaks about heritage
By Louise Stauffer
lstauffer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The Malott room in the Kansas Union was filled last night as author Christina Garcia read excerpts from her novels, which circled around themes of her Cuban heritage.
Marta Caminero-Santangelo, associate English professor, described Garcia as being included in a wave of Latina writers rising to prominence. She said she was struck by the multiple and competing truths in Garcia's work.
"No one way holds authority," Caminero-Santangelo said.
Melanie Weiser, Dallas junior, said she identified with the heritage of the characters.
"My mom's Cuban, and when I read Dreaming in Cuban, it connected me with my heritage," Weiser said. She said she was inspired by Garcia and wanted to hear her speak after reading Dreaming in Cuban.
Resha Cardone, Covelo, Calil', graduate student in Spanish and Portuguese, said Garcia aptly demonstrated the multiple perspectives and complexity of the Cuban situation.
"It's not black or white," she said.
Garcia, who was born in Havana but raised in New York City, has a third novel titled Monkey Hunting due out in May.
Garcia has not always been an author. In the past she has worked as the Miami bureau chief at Time Magazine.
As Garcia read pieces from Dreaming in Cuban, she described how it began as a poem and became more and more unruly. She said the best parts of
the novel were often unplanned.
"After attempting organized writing, I decided to write for pleasure," she said. Dreaming in Cuban was somewhat autobiographical, she said.
"It sort of makes you nervous about people involved in it," she said, because one character in the book resembled her mother.
Garcia said that when she wrote, she did not worry about marketing the books in America, she simply paid attention to one factor.
"I just pay close attention to what is important to a character," she said.
Besides Dreaming in Cuban, Garcia has written the novel The Aguero Sisters and published an anthology, The Proper Study of Mankind. An Anthology of Essays.

FACE-OFF
Who should provide candidate information?
Face-Off is a weekly project of the Kansan editorial board. Each Wednesday two editorial board members will argue opposing sides of a hot-button issue that affects students at the University of Kansas. We hope that this section will help students to understand both sides of an argument and
make better decisions about thier own beliefs.
If you have a suggestion for a topic that could be used in Face-Off, or if you would like to join the editorial board, please call Maggie Koerth or Amy Potter at 864-4924. You can also email suggestions to opinion@kansan.com.
Information service is duty of government
The right to vote is arguably the most important right for the citizens of a democratic society. Nevertheless, a substantial number of U.S. citizens choose not to exercise this right.
According to a 2000 U.S. Census report, there are 203 million eligible voters in the U.S. Ninety-two million people didn't vote last election day. Perhaps the reason these non-voters are listless is they didn't know enough about the candidates.
Although the census found that 36.1 percent of college-age citizens vote, the fault cannot lie entirely with apathetic students.The government receives data on the low voter turnout, but fails to wake up to the reality that it must do something to get people to the booths.
When the only information available comes from signs along the street and attack ads on TV and radio, it's easy to see why. Concrete information on how a candidate stands on a particular issue is difficult, if not impossible, to collect.
Go to City Hall at Sixth and Massachusetts streets and ask to see information on the candidates that will be on the ballot in November. You'll leave with nothing. Go to the courthouse, Lawrence's public high schools, or the public library and ask the same question. Again, you'll come away empty-handed.
These public service entities fail to provide any information about those who will oversee its agencies. The United States, Kansas and Lawrence in particular, need voter information packets. The government needs centralized locations where voters can collect comprehensive information on key issues for all candidates on the ballot. The answers should be provided by the candidate and should be as long as necessary to answer the questions presented.
Although the Hatch Act prevents government employees from advocating a particular political group or candidate, information packets would not be in violation of the Act because they would provide an unbiased overview of every candidate, regardless of affiliation.
The government should provide this specifically because the information would remain objective. Newspapers have biases. Their editorial boards and columnists endorse one candidate over another, yet expect the reader to believe they're impartial when listing the candidate's qualifications.
Further, with all the information coming from one location, voters wouldn't have to scour the web and collect every newspaper to find basic information about candidates.
Yes, this idea will cost money. Yes, this will take a number of hours to accomplish. But informing voters is worth the effort. Increasing the 18- to 24-year-old voter turnout is worth the effort. And getting the population at large to the polls to exercise their democratic right is certainly worth the effort.

At the heart of the democratic process is the right to vote.
It is tragic when those privileged enough to do so squander the right. Yet it would be equally tragic to abandon the principles that assure that our democratic process is truly free.
Asking the government to synthesize information for voter information packets presents a conflict of interest that threatens the heart of democracy. Providing information on election candidates falls under the domain of the press.
A myriad of public information is available to voters through the press. Everything from voting records to campaign finance information can be found online. Granted, this information can be difficult to find for new candidates, but non-incumbents often have government backgrounds from which relevant information is available.
Congress has always been keen to maintain the objectivity of such information.
In 1939 Congress passed the Hatch Act, which prohibited federal employees from engaging in partisan political activities. In the 1975 case Civil Service Commission v. Letter Carriers, the Supreme Court upheld the Hatch Act, noting the original intent of the act was to "execute the programs of the government without bias or favoritism for or against any political party." The court said, "Forbidding activities like these will reduce the hazards to fair and effective government."
The Supreme Court has always held political speech to be one of the most protected forms of expression available, yet it continually takes a back seat to government impartiality.
This was demonstrated again in Burson v. Freeman in 1992, when the court said protecting voters from undue confusion was a compelling interest.
Government-provided information presents merely the raw data. Both conclusions and political spin are conspicuously absent.
It would be impossible to maintain objectivity if the government actively provided this information instead of passively supplying it. The pool of information the government would draw from inevitably risks favoring a candidate.
It is unfortunate that the right to vote is so easily dismissed, seemingly by so many. Compensating for this tragedy by losing faith in the free press is not the answer.
Acknowledging that bias is inherent in any political account allows both sides to balance against each other.
This acknowledgment maintains the impartiality of the government while encouraging participation. Obtaining information to become an informed voter may not be as easy as picking up a packet when you register to vote, but when weighed against the alternative, it is certainly preferable.
No one said democracy would be easy.
PERSPECTIVES
Greg Holmquist dissenting.
'Kansan' reporters hit streets to cover campus news
Many times now, I have been asked how a story idea can reach an editor's ears.
To anyone not involved in the process, it may seem that anything that happens should catch a journalist's attention. This, unfortunately, isn't always true.
The Kansan relies heavily on contacts with different organizations or individuals in order to learn of an event. Even with outside help, the Kansan can and does miss unworthy topics because of limited staff and resources.
This is when a beat reporter becomes vital to a news staff.
Jay Krall, Kansan editor, says a beat reporter covers an assigned subject area and has a group of sources or contacts he is responsible for.
Such subject areas vary by newspaper, but almost always include such beats as city, education, police, entertainment and health.
READERS' REPRESENTATIVE
In order to improve the variety of different news covered by the Kansan, the editors created four new beats this semester.
These new beats cover sorority and fraternity life, science and research, sports administration, and clubs and organizations.
Amy T.
Despite these new efforts, reader input is vital to the newspaper.
Not even Kansan reporters can claim to be omniscient, and because of this even some of the most important events slip past their focus. Reporters and students must stay in contact with each
Laurel Burchfield lburchfield@kansan.com
other in order for the Kansan to know what is going on.
For example, George Schulz, clubs and organizations beat reporter attempts to attend as many of the more than 300 registered clubs and organizations meetings as possible.
Not only does he include the most active groups, but Schulz makes a special effort to also attend those that are less
known or even obscure. It is impossible though, for him to be in constant contact with all of these groups.
Yet, he says the best way for him to keep up with events on campus is to have the members of a group contact him.
One way to do this is for a group to add his email address, gschulz@kansan.com, to their list servers.
There is another way inform readers about what's going on.
"On Campus," which is located on the second page of the Kansan, is a place to print your group's location and meeting time.
These announcements serve as a general invitation for all to attend your group's picnics, seminars and lectures. If
you want to list something in "On Campus", all you have to do is log onto www.kansan.com and enter a submission form under the On Campus Calendar. Group representatives can also submit their events at the Kansan newsroom, room 111 Stauffer-Flint Hall
The Kansan employs 18 regular reporters who each write an average of three stories a week, yet even with that amount of coverage, it is still necessary for readers to provide as much input as possible. Only then can the staff of the Kansan be completely aware of what is happening in the lives of KU students.
Burchfield is a Baseer sophomore in journalism, education and English.

First reunion to teach debate team
By Vonna Keoanyvong

Kansan staff writer
More than a hundred former University of Kansas debaters will come back to the University for their first debate reunion this weekend.
Returning alumni include debaters from as early as the 1940s,as well as national debate champions and participants from recent years.
Robert Rowland, department chair of communication studies, helped organize the event. Rowland, who was on the debate team from 1973 to 1977, said the purpose of the reunion was to allow alumni to reconnect with the debate program.
Reunion events will include a tour of campus, social events and a forum to discuss what it was like debating in the 1940's and '50s. A debate will be held on whether the '60s and '70s were better than the '80s and '90s.
Rowland said the University had one of the top debate programs in the country. The debate team, which began in 1893, has won the National Debate Tournament four times.
Debate coach Scott Harris said KU ranks second among other universities in the number of teams it has sent to the national tournament.
of the program.
Harris said the reunion would help freshmen learn about the tradition and history
"I think it's generally important in any activity to learn about the success of the people who preceeded you," Harris said. "Our current generation needs to learn about that."
Lindy Simonsen, Omaha, Neb. freshman and president of the debate team, said she planned to attend the event because it would give her an opportunity to meet former debaters.
"I want to talk to them about their experiences," Simonsen said. "I think they would have really good ideas. Since we're all freshmen, it'll let us know what we should expect in the future."

Students prepare for ECM trip

Coffee, pancakes and an appreciation of the natural world are a few reasons why students may be inspired to go on the Baker-Haskell Wetlands trip this weekend.
The Ecumenical Christian Ministries will host Saturday's trip to the wetlands. The trip is held every fall and spring semester, and it is the fourth year for the trip.
The Rev. Thad Holcombe of ECM said the trip would be open to the public and would be an opportunity for students to gain a unique perspective about the land.
"We're going to try to look at it
through the eyes of the people who have actually studied it, which means looking at it in a new way," he said. "So we're not just tourists, but we can actually have a relationship with the land."
Holcombe said three graduate students at the University of Kansas would facilitate the trip and help examine a wide array of issues pertinent to the land.
One of the facilitators will be Jennifer Pramuk, KU Ph.D. candidate in herpetology, the study of reptiles and amphibians.
Pramuk said the trip to the wetlands could interest students' aesthetic and ecological interests.
"It gives them a good place to unwind, meditate and relax," she said.
Pramuk said the wetlands were
not only a key migratory site for birds, but a host to diverse species of mammals and reptiles, including the small-mouth salamander.
"It's the only place you can find them in large numbers in lawrence," she said.
Holcombe said the trip's facilitators would also examine the wetlands' environmental history.
"Historically, there weren't any trees at the turn of the century," he said.
Holcombe said students interested in the field trip should meet at ECM at 6:30 a.m. Saturday. He said the trip would end at about 9 a.m. and the discussion would conclude at about 11 a.m. For more information, call Holcombe at 843-4933.

Maj. Chris Keary of KU Public Safety and police officer Brandon S. Burkhart both attended KU. A 1983 KU graduate, Keary has spent 20 years full time on the force. A police officer since Dec. 2001, Burkhart spent four years in the Marine Corps plus six or seven months in the Marine Corps police force.
Officer Brandon Burkhart and Maj. Chris Keary first came to the University of Kansas years ago and hauled their books up the hill to class.
But now both are commissioned as police officers to serve and protect the institution where they both earned degrees.
The KU Public Safety Office doesn't make it a regular practice to hire former students, Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office said, but the experience could be helpful.
"If they've been students here they know the area and the geography," he said. "A person who comes in from the outside first has to deal with where everything is."
"Dispatching can be very stressful, but it's done in a room, sometimes by yourself," Keary said. "I felt the urge to become a police officer and deal with the calls I got directly."
He said he would have never foreseen his work as a police offi-
Keary graduated from KU in 1983 with a degree in computer science. He picked up a job as a dispatcher at the KU Public Safety Office while a student in 1981.
"After graduation I experimented in computer science, but there wasn't anything locally," he said. "The interest wasn't really there, so I decided to stick with the department and see where it would go."
Keary became a commissioned officer in 1987 after working as a dispatcher.
"If they've been students here they know the area and the geography. A person who comes in from the outside first has to deal with where everything is."

ser when he arrived at the University. Keary has now worked at the KU Public Safety Office for more than 20 years and is the department's assistant director.
Burkhart didn't attend the University with law enforcement in mind either.
He attended the University
from 1989 to 1991 and then again from 1997 to 2001. He received bachelor degrees in history and political science, serving in the Marine Corps, including six months as a military police officer, between his tenures at the University.
His desire to work with people and to pay off his student loans led him to become a police officer. He began working at the KU Public Safety Office in December 2001.
Although he said he didn't plan to leave law enforcement soon, he does aspire to return to school as a student.
"After graduation, it was my intent to go to law school although I recognize that I can go anytime," he said. "I don't need to be young to do that. I just need a whole lot more money."

Autopsies reveal victims beaten
The Associated Press
WICHITA, Kan. — Autopsies on victims of a quadruple killing in December 2000 showed the three men were beaten and the woman was sexually assaulted before all were shot in the back of the head while kneeling on snow, a coroner testified yesterday.
Mary Dudley, chief medical examiner for the Sedgwick County Regional Forensic Science Center, offered the testimony in the capital murder trial of brothers Reginald and Jonathan Carr of Dodge City.
The Carrs are accused of fatally shooting a Wichita woman on Dec. 11, 2000, and four of five people who were abducted from a Wichita home on Dec. 14 of that year and taken to a soccer field, where all were shot execution-style. One person survived and has testified against them.
Dudley said all four of the people found dead on the soccer field died of a gunshot wound to the head. Bruising on their bodies indicated separate blunt force trauma, with some of the injuries consistent with blows from a golf club, she testified.
A partial autopsy on a dog found at the home where the abductions occurred indicated it had been beaten to death, possibly with the golf club found near it, Dudley said. The dog, a small schnauzer named Nikki, belonged to the woman who survived the shootings and had been left alive and muzzled in the home when the victims were taken to the soccer field.
Killed in that attack were Aaron Sander, 29; Brad Heyka,
27; Jason Befort, 26; and Heather Muller, 25. The four, along with Befort's 25-year old girlfriend, had been forced to withdraw money from automated teller machines and forced to engage in sexual acts before they were shot.
The fifth person whom the Carrs are accused of killing, 55-year-old Wichita Symphony Orchestra cellist Ann Walenta, was shot three times while sitting in her motor vehicle on Dec. 11, 2000. She died weeks later.
Dudley said her autopsy showed Walenta died as a result of complications of multiple gunshot wounds, and ruled her death a homicide. She testified that a pulmonary embolism that caused the death was a result of the gunshot wounds.
Befort's autopsys showed a gunshot wound to the back of the head, with the bullet exiting below his eye. Dudley testified. Injuries on his buttocks, legs and toes had a pattern similar to the raised edges of the golf club, she said.
Heyka also was shot in the head and had separate head injuries showing blunt force trauma to the head and neck. Dudley said.
Sander's autopsy showed a contact gunshot wound to the head, meaning the gun was touching the skin when it was fired, she said.
He, too, had separate abrasions to his forehead, possibly from being hit with a gun, and he had several bruises on his legs. Dudley testified.
Muller also showed signs of having been shot while the gun was placed against her head.

mental Protection Agency standards.
WAMEGO, Kan. — Twenty-one private wells near a former missile site have been found to contain high levels of a toxic solvent used by the military to clean engines, the Kansas Department of Health and Environment says.
KDHE identified 67 water wells east of the former Atlas-E missile site. At 21 of the wells, tests showed the water contained levels of trichloroethylene, or TCE, that exceeded Environ-
TCE, a possible carcinogen has been linked to liver damage and can cause vomiting and abdominal pain, according to the EPAs Web site.
Officials have told residents they are developing plans for cleanup.
Meanwhile, bottled water is being delivered to homes where well水 contained high levels of TCE and the Army Corps of Engineers is analyzing ways to
provide a permanent water source, officials said.
One option would be to hook the homes to rural water district pipelines. The corps would pay to hook up the homes, but property owners would then be responsible for their monthly bills
"This is usually the practice followed by the federal government," said Dan Gravatt, KDHE unit chief for the EPA fund that pays for such transactions.
Saqiv Khan, corps project manager, said officials hope to
schedule a public meeting within the next month to answer residents' questions, including what health problems they could face.
"We're trying to locate an expert on health issues," Khan said.
Completed in 1961, the 28acre Wamego installation is one of nine Atlas-E intercontinental ballistic missile sites operated until 1965 by the 548th Strategic Missile Squadron headquartered at the former Forbes Air Force Base in Topeka.

Friend testifies against priest
The Associated Press
BOSTON — The highestranking Boston Archdioceseofficial implicated in the sex scandaladmitted molesting three boys more than 20 years ago, a formerBoston Bruins hockey player saidin sworn testimony filed Monday.
The athlete, Chris Nilan, is a friend of the priest, Monsignor Frederick J. Ryan, who was vice chancellor under then-Boston Cardinal Humberto Medeiros.
Ryan sexually abused David Carney and two others, and maintained a sexual relationship with one of the two others up until three years ago, Nilan said in June when questioned in a lawsuit brought by Carney against Ryan and the archdiocese.
Nilan, 44, a friend of the three alleged victims, said he confronted Ryan after allegations surfaced earlier this year.
"I needed some answers for my own sanity," said Nilan, whose wedding was performed by Ryan. "Having done confession with him before, I had to hold him to supposedly what his morals and values of the church were."
Lawyers for Ryan and the archdiocese did not immediately return calls for comment.
Nilan's lawyer, Francis J. DiMento Jr., said his client "really didn't want to be involved in this" but understood his legal responsibility to 'testify. Asked about Nilan's specific allegations, DiMento said he had nothing to add to what was in the deposi-

tion, and said it was unlikely that Nilan would comment himself.
Ryan was pastor of a church in Kingston and oversaw 16 parishes when the charges arose. He is suspended and has in the past refused to comment.
Ryan was a chaplain at a Boston parochial school where Nilan and Carney both played hockey, though they were nine years apart. Nilan played in the National Hockey League for 13 years, 10 with the Montreal Canadians. He also played for the Boston Bruins and New York Rangers.
Also Monday, Worcester District Attorney John J. Conte said retired priest Paul Desilets, who was indicted on 32 counts of indecent assault and battery, had been arrested in Canada.
Prosecutors allege Desillets abused 18 former altar boys between 1978 and 1984 at Our Lady of Assumption Parish in Bellingham. Conte requested the priest's extradition in August. Desillets was to be arraigned in Canada Tuesday.
Desilets had refused recent requests for comment but in February told The Associated Press allegations against him were "exaggerated."
Electronic attack briefly cripples Internet
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON—An unusually powerful electronic attack briefly crippled nine of the 13 computer servers that manage global Internet traffic this week, officials disclosed Tuesday. But most Internet users didn't notice because the attack only lasted one hour.
The FBI and White House were investigating. One official described the attack Monday as the most sophisticated and large-scale assault against these crucial computers in the history of the Internet. The origin of the attack was not known.
Seven of the 13 servers failed to respond to legitimate network traffic and two others failed intermittently during the attack, officials confirmed.
The FBJ's National Infrastructure Protection Center was "aware of the denial of service
attack and is addressing this matter," spokesman Steven Berry said.
Service was restored after experts enacted defensive measures and the attack suddenly stopped.
The 13 computers are spread geographically across the globe as precaution against physical disasters and operated by U.S. government agencies, universities, corporations and private organizations.
"As best we can tell, no user noticed and the attack was dealt with and life goes on," said Louis Touton, vice president for the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, the Internet's key governing body.
Brian O'Shaughnessy, a spokesman for VeriSign Inc., which operates two of the 13 computers in northern Virginia, said "these sorts of attacks will
happen."
"We were prepared, we responded quickly," O'Shaughnessy said. "We proactively cooperated with our fellow root server operators and the appropriate authorities."
Computer experts who manage some of the affected computers, speaking on condition of anonymity, said they were cooperating with the White House through its Office of Homeland Security and the President's Critical Infrastructure Protection Board.
Richard Clarke, President Bush's top cyber-security adviser and head of the protection board, has warned for months that an attack against the Internet's 13 so-called root server computers could be dramatically disruptive.
times normal amounts. One said that just one additional failure would have disrupted e-mails and Web browsing across parts of the Internet.
These experts said the attack, which started about 4:45 p.m. EDT Monday, transmitted data to each targeted root server 30 to 40
Monday's attack wasn't more disruptive because many Internet providers and large corporations and organizations routinely store, or "cache," popular Web directory information for better performance.
"The Internet was designed to be able to take outages, but when you take the root servers out, you don't know how long you can work without them," said Alan Paller, director of research at the SANS Institute, a security organization based in Bethesda, Md.
Although the Internet theoretically can operate with only a single root server, its performance would slow if more than four root servers failed for any appreciable length of time.
Fire allegedly set as revenge
The Associated Press
BALTIMORE — Hundreds of people cried and prayed Monday next to the charred home where a mother and five of her children were burned to death, police say, because the woman tried to stand up to neighborhood drug dealers.
Mourners at the candelight vigil held hands and gathered around a stage by the burned-out row house, which still smelled of acrid smoke. Mayor Martin O'Malley led the group in prayer for an end to drug-related violence.
"We are going to pull this city together as we've never been pulled together because we have a responsibility to the little ones that gave their lives across the way for us," O'Malley said.
Some who came said they were worried about the future of one of America's most violent inner cities. One mourner, Lola Jenkins, called the area "a killing ground."
"It was something that I just had to do," she said of attending the vigil, her grandchildren by her side. "It's something that all of us have to do."
The deaths of Angela Dawson, 36, and the five children were the latest chapter in what appeared to be a running battle between the woman and local drug dealers.
Then, last Wednesday, fire tore through the home again.
Neighbors described Dawson as a concerned mother who was threatened after she tried to force dealers off her street corner. The family's house had been firebombed two weeks earlier, but they escaped injury.
killing Dawson and the five children—Carnell Dawson Jr., 10; Juan Ortiz, 12; twins Kevin and Keith Dawson, 9; and LaWanda Dawson, 14.
The only survivor was Dawson's husband, Carnell Dawson Sr., who was burned over 80 percent of his body. He fractured his pelvis jumping from an upper floor window to escape the fire that gutted the three-story home and remains in critical condition, police said.
Darrell Brooks, 21, has been charged in the attack. Prosecutors allege Brooks kicked in the door, poured gasoline on the floor and lit the fatal blaze.
Police said Brooks has a "drug history" and started the blaze to get back at Dawson after she complained to authorities about the dealing. He is being held without bail on charges of arson and first-degree murder.
At Monday's vigil, Angela Dawson's brother, John Harrington, spoke of a recent sleepless night he had trying to compose a poem about the death
"One thing we can't forget is the love that she had for her children,"he told a crowd gathered around the stage.
Earlier at City Hall, O'Malley said city officials were searching for better ways to take violent drug dealers off the streets. He said he was hopeful that up to 75 more parole and probation agents will be hired to go after repeat offenders who have violated parole.
The city was in a crisis, O'Malley said, because residents fear reporting drug dealers to police.

Bush endorses republicans campaigning for office
President travels country, tries to raise money for candidates
WASHINGTON — After blazing new records on the fund-raising trail this year, President Bush has reached the end of the road in his quest for campaign cash.
The Associated Press
Bush has headlined 66 fundraisers this year, an average of one every four days, but plans no more before Election Day, several White House officials said. His efforts brought in more than $140 million for Republicans.
The president has shifted into get-out-the-vote mode,starring at rallies Tuesday in Pennsylvania and Maine.
He crossed the finish line Thursday with a double-header that saw him haul in $1 million for the Florida GOP and $800,000 for Georgia's gubernatorial and Senate candidates.
Bush shut the door on all money events with a thank-you bow Monday night to the Republican National Committee's "Regents" — those who have given more than $250,000 over the past two years. Reporters were barred from the event at the McLean, Va., home of developer Dwight Schar, a member of the RNC's "pioneers" club — those who rounded up $100,000 or more for his presidential campaign two years ago.
From there, it was rallies for Bush on Tuesday in Downington, Pa., for gubernatorial candidate Mike Fisher and congressional hopeful Jim Gerlach; and on to Bangor, Maine, for congressional candidate Kevin Raye, Sen. Susan Collins and gubernatorial hopeful Peter Cianchette.
Bush resisted undertaking such an aggressive fund-raising campaign when senior aides first presented him with their plan about a year ago. He was absorbed by the war in Afghanistan, and waved the advisers away.
But early this year, he accepted the blueprint. The campaign opened Jan. 9 when he starred at a $1.5 million event for his brother Jeb, who is seeking re-election as Florida governor. Jeb Bush became the largest beneficiary of the president's fund raising.
Other big winners have been Elizabeth Dole of North Carolina and Lamar Alexander of Tennessee, two of Bush's rivals for the 2000 GOP presidential nomination, both running for U.S. Senate; Scott McCallum, the GOP gubernatorial candidate in Wisconsin; Bill Simon, running for California governor; Norm Coleman, the GOP's U.S. Senate hopeful in Minnesota; Jim Talent, running for Senate in Missouri; and John Cornyn, running for Senate in Texas. All got multiple, in-person plugs from Bush.
Bush never took more than a few days off from the fund-raising campaign. On the day he signed
the McCain-Feingold bill tightening fund-raising laws, Bush collected $2.6 million for Republican Senate candidates in two states. "I'm not going to lay down my arms," Bush said at the time.
If McCain-Feingold survives court challenges, it could make Bush's fund-raising campaign the last of its kind. In May he raised $30 million at an RNC gala much of it in large contributions from corporations that the new law would prohibit the national political parties from accepting.
but the new law doubles the amount an individual may give to a presidential campaign, making it possible Bush could raise $200 million or more for the 2004 primaries if he turns down public funding.
Bush's prolific fund raising has helped the GOP accumulate a substantial stockpile of cash for next month's election.
The RNC began this month with $30 million on hand, for example, compared with $5 million for the Democratic National Committee. But the Democratic Party, too, is collecting big "soft money" checks up to the last minute; Newsweb chief executive Fred Eychaner of Chicago donated $3 million to the DNC in September, and he and Hollywood entertainment mogul Haim Saban each gave at least $1 million to the Democratic senatorial committee last month.
"Bush's travel schedule and end of the campaign strategy can make this election into a referendum on the economy."

Bush's $140 million-plus total obliterated the estimated $50 million President Clinton and his wife, Hillary Rodham Clinton, raised in 1994 — the run-up to his
first midterm campaign as president. Clinton raised about $105 million during 2000, but that was a presidential election cycle, which produces higher fund-raising totals than midterms.
Vice President Dick Cheney, confined after the terrorist attacks to "undisclosed locations" for security reasons, hit the road even more aggressively than Bush. He headlined some 70 fund-raisers, raking in more than $22 million.
Democrats planned to use Bush's heavy political itinerary against him.
"Bush's travel schedule and end of the campaign strategy can make this election into a referendum on the economy," Clinton White House alumni Joe Lockhart and John Podesta wrote to Democratic leaders last week. "We all know from national polling that voters believe Bush is not spending enough time focused on the economy by a factor of two to one."
Conflict encourages increased student activism
The Associated Press
BERKELEY, Calif. - On a tree-shaded plaza at the University of California at Berkeley, two leaflet-covered tables have become the latest flash points for a school with a long history of debate.
One table has fliers advocating divestment from Israel. The other has the opposite message, promoting the purchase of Israeli bonds. Some observers think such activism is a sign of something larger.
A new generation is rallying
nere and at campuses across the country on the conflict in the Middle East and other issues, rekindling old passions and offering a taste of what future anti-war protests might look like.
Thirty eight years after the Free Speech Movement at Berkeley created the blueprint for college activism, the new protesters are tuned in and turned on. Where protest leaders of the past mustered their troops by stapling fliers to telephone poles, today they flip on high-speed modems.
"This generation really seems to yearn for connections and
meaning," said Molly Schaller, an assistant professor of counselor education and human services at the University of Dayton in Ohio.
Schaller, who follows student culture, sees a shift as Generation Y, which grew up with the Internet at its fingertips, takes over from Generation X, raised in the "Me Decade" of the 1980s.
Today's students "know a lot. They have a lot of information, and that's what calls them to action," said Schaller.
While students at other campuses around the nation have been moved to act on issues ranging from banning sweatshop labor to ending racism, Berkeley has been roiled by Middle East conflicts — a subject that has sparked raucous demonstrations.
Thirty-two students face possible suspension for taking over a campus building in a demonstration promoting the divestment campaign in April.
County prosecutors have dropped trespassing and other charges against the pro-Palestinian students, but Berkeley decided to go ahead with the hearings, saying school rules must be upheld.
Students' attorney Anne Weills said administrators are overreacting to "a very simple, small sit-in." The students have sued.
It's familiar ground for Walls. In 1964, she was a civil rights organizer working with Berkeley students on the Free Speech Movement.
"I imagine there are going to be a lot of protests that are coming down the pike. I imagine that I will begin to join them," said Linda Williams, a Berkeley film professor who signed a faculty petition supporting the protesters.
Pro-Israeli students, many of them members of the Israel Action Committee, have held counter-rallies and debates. Their Israeli bond-buying drive, Project Invest, is also spreading online.
Jewish students say the atmosphere has become tense; vandals threw a cinder block through the window of the campus Jewish center and wrote anti-Semitic graffiti.
Leaders of the pro-Palestinian student movement condemn these unsolved attacks, but they too feel targeted, especially since Sept. 11.

United States revises United Nations draft resolution
The Associated Press
UNITED NATIONS — The United States said its revised U.N. draft resolution on Iraq gives U.N. weapons inspectors more elout and puts Saddam Hussein on notice that he faces "serious consequences" if Iraq doesn't cooperate.
But whether the resolution gets the support of the other four veto-wielding council members and the 10 other voting members remains to be seen.
U. S. Ambassador John Negroponte gave the complete draft to envoys from the four permanent council nations — France, Russia, China and Britain — at a meeting Monday.
The draft was being studied in the four capitals, and the five veto-holding nations were to meet again Tuesday.
France's U.N. Ambassador Jean-David Levitt, when asked before receiving the draft whether
an agreement was close, replied: "I don't think so."
There was no official reaction from Russia, but the ITAR-Tass and Interfax news agencies reported Tuesday that Moscow was disappointed with the revised U.S. draft. Quoting unidentified sources, they said it differed little from previous U.S.-British proposals.
France, backed by Russia and China, has led opposition to a U.S. resolution that would authorize the use of force without first giving Iraq another chance to meet its U.N. disarmament obligations. It favors a two-stage approach that would give Iraq a chance to comply and only authorize force in a second resolution if Baghdad obstructed inspections.
inspections. The United States, supported by Britain, has circulated a single resolution that it says will allow the use of force if Saddam fails to comply.
"This is the text which will accomplish our goals, identifying the violations of U.N. resolutions by Iraq, mandating and giving the inspectors authority to carry out strong and unrestricted inspections and making clear that the council is determined to ensure that there will be consequences if Iraq fails to comply," he said.
U. S. State Department spokesman Richard Boucher said Monday the United States wants to wrap up negotiations with the new text.
Last week, Washington backed down from its demand that the resolution authorize "all necessary means" and agreed instead to let inspectors go to Iraq and report any violations to the Security Council.
The new U.S. draft would then have the council convene immediately to discuss the situation but U.S. officials have said this does not commit the Bush administration to waiting for council
The U.S. proposal includes phrases that could be interpreted as triggering military action, wording that could raise disagreement from the French, Russians and Chinese, council diplomats said.
action before it acts.
One refers to Iraq being in "material breach" for violating U.N. resolutions, a phrase that some legal experts say could open the door for a response.
Another recalls that Iraq has been repeatedly warned that it could face "serious consequences," the council diplomats said.
As in the original U.S. draft resolution, the new one stands by a demand that Iraq make a complete declaration about its programs to develop nuclear, chemical and biological weapons, ballistic missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles within 30 days, the diplomats said.
It has also kept its demand that
Iraq accept the new resolution within seven days of its adoption, they said.
In order for a resolution to pass, it needs a minimum of nine "yes" votes from the 15 council members, and no veto by a permanent member.
The 10 elected council members haven't yet seen the text.
Council diplomats said they expect negotiations in the full council to focus on new terms for inspections.
The new U.S. text keeps a key U.S. demand, requiring Iraq to provide inspectors with immediate and unconditional access to all sites—including presidential complexes which are currently exempt from surprise searches, U.N. diplomats said.
A proposal to let inspectors take Iraqis and their families outside the country for interviews remained in the resolution, though current inspectors say this poses serious problems, for example if an Iraqi being questioned wanted asylum.
The new draft also keeps a proposal for U.N. security forces or U.N. member states to protect inspectors in no-fly, no-drive zones — but leaves it in brackets as it was in the original draft, meaning it is still being debated, the diplomats said. Many current and former U.N. inspectors oppose being accompanied by security forces and diplomats predict this provision will be dropped.
The new U.S. draft already dropped a proposal to allow the five permanent council members to be represented on inspection teams, the diplomats said. Many U.N. officials said this would politicize inspections.
Inspectors must certify that Iraq's chemical, biological and nuclear weapons programs have been destroyed before sanctions imposed on Iraq after its 1990 invasion of Kuwait can be lifted.
Concerns abound with weapons program
The Associated Press
SEOUL, South Korea — South Korean negotiators struggled Tuesday to persuade North Korea to address concerns over its nuclear weapons program, South Korean pool reports said.
After the North's ceremonial head of state expressed willingness to resolve the nuclear issue through dialogue, officials of the two sides met through the night but failed to reach agreement, said reports from Pyongyang, the North Korean capital.
"The only remaining issue is whether North Korea would accept our demand regarding the nuclear issue," the pool reports quoted an unidentified South Korean negotiator as saying.
South Korean journalists said North Korean officials were reluctant to include in a joint statement any reference to the principle of negotiating a solution
to the nuclear issue.
A final session between the top negotiators, scheduled for Tuesday morning, was delayed as lower-level officials tried to find a compromise, the reports said.
compliance Rodong Sinmun, a state-run North Korean newspaper, said in an editorial Tuesday that the United States should "opt for reconciliation and peace, not strong-arm policy."
"The U.S. is now calling for 'arms reduction' of the DPRK, making a hue and cry over its 'threat.' But such row does not stand to reason and it will get the U.S. nowhere," said the editorial, which was carried in English on KCNA, the North's news agency
DPRK stands for Democratic People's Republic of Korea.
The three-day, Cabinet-level talks, which opened Sunday, were meant to discuss inter-Korean reconciliation but the North's nuclear issue took priority. No foreign journalists were allowed to cover the talks.
On Monday, the North's ceremonial head of state, Kim Yong Nam, said his country was ready to resolve the nuclear issue through dialogue as long as the United States withdraws its "hostile" policy toward the North.
"I believe we can deal with this threat peacefully, particularly if we work together," President Bush said Monday.
South Korea believes dialogue is the best way to deal with concerns over the North's nuclear program. It is uneasy about the possibility of a new security crisis
The North's position was at odds with the United States, which views the communist country's nuclear weapons program as a nonnegotiable issue. Washington vows to muster international pressure on North Korea to give up its nuclear ambition.
on the Korean peninsula, similar to one in 1994.
That crisis was resolved after North Korea signed a deal with the United States, pledging to freeze and eventually dismantle its suspected plutonium-based nuclear weapons program in return for construction of two modern, light-water reactors and 500,000 tons of fuel oil a year until the reactors are completed.
The latest crisis is over North Korea's confession to visiting U.S. Assistant Secretary of State James Kelly on Oct. 3-5 that it has been secretly pushing a program to make nuclear weapons with enriched uranium.
In meetings with Kelly, North Korean officials said they consider the 1994 agreement invalid because the reactors were several years behind schedule and were not expected to be completed by 2003 as promised.
Lawsuit against author dismissed
PARIS — A French court on Tuesday dismissed a lawsuit against best-selling novelist Michel Houellebecq that accused him of inciting racial hatred by calling Islam a "stupid" religion in a magazine interview.
The court ruled that Houellebecq's comments, denounced in the lawsuit by four Muslim groups, displayed "ignorance" about Islam but did not include an intent to affront or show contempt toward Muslims.
The Associated Press
The 44-year-old author, who shot to international fame with the 1998 shock novel "Atomized," which was published in the United States as "The Elementary Particles," defiantly testified in court in September that he had no contempt for Muslims, but that he had "as much contempt as ever" for Islam.
Tuesday's decision was expected. The public prosecutor's office had already recommended dismissing the case. Still, some of the plaintiffs said they would appeal.
"We are totally surprised by this decision, which seems to be inspired by a poor understanding of Islam," said Jean-Marc Varaut, a lawyer for an association representing the Mosque of Paris.
Houellebecq's lawyer, Emmanuel Pierrat, said the author would be happy if there were an appeal.

Miss Cleo no longer to work in Kansas
TOPEKA, Kan. — Miss Cleo has packed up her tarot cards and ended her psychic hot line business in Kansas under an agreement reached with the attorney general's office.
The Associated Press
The office reached the settlement yesterday with two Florida-based companies involved with Miss Cleo, said spokesman Mark Ohmeier said.
"Basically, the two companies have agreed that they will no longer do business in the state of Kansas and they will also forgive any outstanding debts owed by Kansas consumers," Ohlemeier said.
Kansas and four other states Indiana, Illinois, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, resolved lawsuits against Access Resource Services Inc., and Psychic Readers Network Inc., both in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.
"The two companies are connected, and both were involved in the psychic entertainment service known as Miss Cleo," Ohmeier said.
Ohlemeier said Kansas worked with the other states but each filed its own lawsuit and reached its own settlement. He said Kansas also worked with Connecticut and Ten-
nesse but didn't know the out come there.
Last year, Attorney General Carla Stovall started looking into complaints about Miss Cleo.
"The lawsuits in the other states were similar to the one filed in Kansas. All the states have been talking with the companies to resolve these cases," Ohlemeier said.
Speaking with a Caribbean accent, Miss Cleo appeared in television commercials promising insights into love, money and other personal matters. The ads included a hot line number to call.
Sean Moynihan of New York attorney for Access Resource, said, "We are happy to bring this to a resolution."
Ohlemeier said the office received about 160 complaints, some dating back to 1997. He said most complaints dealt with the claim that during a call to the hot line, the first few minutes of the reading were free.
He said those minutes were exhausted by the caller giving personal information.
In a separate legal action, Missouri Attorney General Jay Nixon last year sued Access Resources, which later was fined $75,600.
Crime focus of last gubernatorial debate
The Associated Press
TOPEKA, Kan. — While they stuck to their main themes last night in their bid for governor, Republican Tim Shallenburger and Democrat Kathleen Sebelius did turn up the heat in trading barbs, especially on the issue of crime.
Near the end of the hour-long televised debate, Shallenburger compared his legislative voting record with Sebelius on various anti-crime measures.
It was last of five scheduled debates between the two candidates before the Nov. 5 general election.
ACLU point of view of most of these issues and voted soft on crime," he said.
"I think if you ask people who were in the Legislature when we both were there, there is one thing you would hear: Tim Shallen-burger was tough on crime and Kathleen Sebelius took the
Shallenburger ticked off several topics—capital punishment, drug laws, registration of sexual predators—which he supported while his opponent didn't when they both served in the Legislature a decade ago.
But Sebelius managed to get in few verbal punches of her own.
"I did make some votes different in the Legislature than Tim Shallenburger. I have tried not to pick votes out of isolation and to explain my views on issues," Sebelius said.
"But to challenge my belief that we need safe community ... I think is an act of desperation in the closing days of the campaign," she added.
Sebelius also complained that Shallenburger has sent a fundraising letter calling called her "a lying, dangerous liberal who will ruin our schools and endanger our children."
After the debate, Sebelius passed out copies of the letter, signed by Shallenburger and seeking contributions so he could purchase television time for his ads.
As they have said before, both candidates said they wouldn't cut state funding for public schools
and would work to find ways to cut government waste.
Among the key issues facing the candidates are education and how to deal with the state's sagging revenues.
Shallenburger again said he wouldn't raise taxes while Sebellius stopped short of making a notax pledge.
Neither have offered many specifics about what they would do.
Revenue for the $4.4 billion state budget hasn't lived up to expectations, and the budget is expected to wind up with a $103 million deficit on June 30 if no cuts are made.
Sebelius again pushed her idea of a "top-to-bottom review" of state government to find waste an inefficiency. Shallenburger also promises to cut government waste.
More than half of the state budget is spent on public schools, and both candidates have vowed not to cut spending for elementary and secondary education.
Both candidates called education their top priority.
"I did make some votes different in the Legislature than Tim Shallenburger. I have tried not to pick votes out of isolation and to explain my views on issues."
Kathleen Sebelius Democratic gubernatorial candidate
Shallenburger said he didn't support forcing school districts to consolidate, but it should be left to local districts.
For her part, Sebelius said, "I think we need in these tough times to look for ways that voluntary consolidation is accelerated."
The two candidates began their series of debates on Sept. 7 at the Kansas State Fair in Hutchinson.
They also met in Wichita on Sept. 16; Colby, Oct. 6, and Lake Quivira in Johnson County on Oct. 8.

Volleyball faces strong Cornhusker tradition
WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 23, 2002
The Kansas volleyball squad drew first blood in their very first meeting with Nebraska. Since then, Nebraska has avenged the loss, overdoing so for the next 27 years.

the Hawkys who are 14-4 overall and 5-4 in the Big 12 this year, will try to end a two-match losing streak this season when they take on the No. 4 Nebraska Cornhuskers (17-1, 9-0) at 7 p.m. tonight at the Horejsi Family Athletics Center. Kansas is coming off losing two 3-0 sweeps to Missouri and Kansas State over fall break.
next 127 years.
Nebraska has won 59 consecutive Big
12 matches. The Cornhuskers are 67-1
all-time against Kansas. Nebraska has
not lost in the series since 1975 when
the Jayhawks won in their first game against
the Cornhusker.
"You can still become a better team even through this adversity," Kansas coach Ray Bechard said. "Being better is our goal, even though the wins and losses didn't work out like maybe we've hoped for."
The Cornhuskers are coming off a 3-0 sweep over Baylor at home Saturday. Not only does Nebraska lead the Big 12 in their 9-0 conference record, but they are first in several statistical categories, including team hitting percentage (.319), opponent hitting percentage (.114), blocks (3.49 per game), and service aces (2.02 per game).
Senior outside hitter Laura Pilakowski, the reigning Big 12 player of the week, leads the Cornhuskers. She is eighth in the conference averaging 3.88 kills per game. Freshman middle blocker Melissa Elmer is tied with Kansas's Michaels for first in hitting percentage (.391).
"I think a lot of teams face the Nebraska match saying 'hey, this is a no-lose situation for us,'" Bechard said. "But you face a team that's very confident that's used to being in this situation. Nothing should change about how you compete."
"I think in playing Nebraska we just have to go in there and put those two games behind us, move on and play our best game," Ashley Michaels, sophomore middle blocker said.

Kansas opponents have focused on the Jayhawk pass coverage all season. Now Kansas coach Mark Mangino has taken that spotlight to practice.

"We're holding those kids accountable," Mangino said. "And we're telling them by having the rest of their teammates watching that it is an important area of our game that we need to improve."
Kansas' pass coverage ranks tenth in the Big 12 conference. Through eight games this season, it has allowed an average of 227.50 yards per game. Last weekend, Texas A&M junior quarterback Dustin Long exposed the Jayhawk secondary even further. He lit up Kansas for 399 yards on 18-of-32 passing, a new Aggie record.

For the qualifying round, senior Kim Lorenz and freshman Christine Skoda have a tough road to the finals, needing three wins to advance. Junior Kristen Steinbock is suffering from back pain that will allow her to play only doubles.
"We have a lot of talented players but our strength is in doubles and we need to gain consistency in singles," Waterman said.
The main doubles draw will begin Friday featuring all three doubles teams for the Jayhawks. Heading the doubles teams are the Steinbock twins followed by Haylock and Brown, and Lorenz and Skoda.
Thirty-one teams will compete in the tournament with hopes of reaching the National Indoor Championships which run from Nov. 7 to 10 in Dallas, Texas.

Basketball recruit is in grave shape
team's friend
Don't be worried about Graves — be happy. If Williams is that angry, Graves must be one hell of a player.
Jeff Graves came to Kansas grotesquely overweight and that made Roy Williams mad. So mad that Williams blasted Graves at the men's basketball team's media day.
His lack of conditioning became Kansas basketball's hottest story of the offseason after he arrived this fall weighing 292 pounds, 37 pounds above his weight at Iowa Western Community College last season.
At last report, Graves was at 275 pounds and hadn't passed either of two mandatory running tests to Williams's satisfaction. On media day, Williams said Graves was "officially not a member of our team yet."
Sounds bad, right? Graves, the only scholarship member of this year's two recruits expected to play much this season, is in Williams' doghouse. But Williams' comments are also telling in a good way. He expects more out of Graves — a lot more.
One of the strangest things about coaches is the way they handle the media. When things go wrong, many coaches tend to use the press to point the finger at their stars rather than at their less effective players. It's hard to see why coaches think this is a good idea, but they do it all the time.
After the Philadelphia 76ers were eliminated from the NBA playoffs last season, coach Larry Brown made pointed remarks about the lax practice habits of superstar shooting guard Allen Iverson, ignoring the fact that without Iverson, the 76ers wouldn't have even sniffed the playoffs. That led to Iverson's infamous "We talkin' 'bout practice" press conference, in which he used that phrase about 176 times.
Conversely, coaches always have good things to say about their struggling players and "scrubs." Williams himself spent a good portion of 1998-2001 defending underachieving center Eric Chenowith in the press, as Chenowith drew the disgust of Jayhawk fans. You'll never hear Williams say anything like, "Until Michael Lee averages at least five points a game, he's officially not a member of our team."
This year, Graves is supposed to come off the bench and give Nick Collison and Wayne Simien a break from the front-court. Graves isn't just the best option for that role. He's the only option.
Without Graves, Williams doesn't have a lot of choices when Collison and Simien need a rest, unless you consider it worthwhile to have rail-thin freshman Moulaye Niang trying to post up on the opposition's power forward. Or Williams could play a four-guard offense and give up a ton of interior baskets. Even better, Collison and Simien could play all 40 minutes and wear themselves out by the fifth game of the season.
None of these options are desirable,
or even feasible. Williams needs Graves
this year, and he knows it.
If a less important player, such as freshman walk-on Christian Moody, had arrived at school overweight, chances are we wouldn't hear much about it. But Williams is airing his frustrations about Graves' conditioning because he knows Graves, who averaged 16.6 points and 8.2 rebounds per game last season, is one of this year's best junior college transfers. He has the potential to be a great player. And with almost a month left to get in shape before its first regular-season game, it's likely he'll be a huge help to the Jayhawks.

Bonds successful in loss
The Associated Press
www.kansan.com
SAN FRANCISCO—Once again, Barry Bonds hit a long home run and the San Francisco Giants came up short.
Bonds set a pair of records with a 437-foot shot to center field Tuesday night, but the Giants lost 10-4 to the Anaheim Angels and fell behind 2-1 in the World Series.
心
Bonds, putting his past postseason failures even further behind him, hit his record seventh homer this October and also became the first player to go deep in his first three World Series games.
But like Bonds' solo shot with two outs in the ninth inning off Troy Percival in an 11-10 loss in Game 2 on Sunday night, the Giants' pitcher created too big a deficit for San Francisco to overcome.
With the Giants trailing 8-2 and a runner on in the fifth inning, Bonds drove a 1-1 pitch from Ramon Ortiz over the center-field fence to make it a four-run game.
S
Bonds admired the shot and walked the first few steps to first base before jogging around the bases with another home run. The only other player to homer in the first three games of a World Series was Hank Bauer of the New York Yankees in 1958.
Bonds, who set a record with 73 home runs in 2001, had been a postseason dund until this year. He had lost all five series his teams had played in and his own performance was a big reason why.
Bonds homered in his first Series at-bat, connecting off Jarrod Washburn in a 4-3 win in Game 1.
He came into this year hitting only .196 with one home run and six RBIs in 97 postseason at-bats.
But he broke out of that slump with three homers in the division series against Atlanta, one in the NLCS against St. Louis and three in the World Series to break a tie with six others for the most homers in a single postseason.
Bob Robertson (1971), Lenny Dykstra (1993), Ken Griffey Jr. (1995), Bernie Williams (1996), Jim Thome (Cleveland), and Anaheim's Troy Glaus (2002) all hit six homers in one postseason.
When Bonds really could have done damage in Game 3, the Angels predictably pitched around him.
By the time Bonds came up again, the Giants were trailing 4-1. This time, Ortiz challenged him with a runner on first base and one out. Bonds looked at a called strike before swinging through two more to strike out for just the fifth time this post-season.
With runners on first and third in the first inning of a scoreless game, Ortiz intentionally walked Bonds as Angels manager Mike Scioscia clearly didn't want the pitcher who allowed the most homers this season to pitch to the game's most feared slugger.
The fans booed at the Angels refusal to pitch to Bonds as the scoreboard played the chicken dance.
It was the seventh time Bonds was intentionally walked in the postseason after setting a record with 68 in the regular season.
The Angels didn't challenge Bonds again after the homer, walking him on four pitches with two outs in the seventh inning. That was Bonds' 20th walk in the postseason, tying the record set by Gary Sheffield in 1997.
Giants fans travel the country for the joy of seeing team play
The Associated Press
ON MCCOVEY COVE, Calif.— These Giants fans wear life preservers.
They come by schooner, kayak and raft. Some come to party, others hoping to catch a ball. And though they won't see a single pitch, they're a big part of the World Series scene at Pacific Bell Park.
part of the world They are the boaters and floaters who spend cold, damp nights in the murky gray-green water of McCovey Cove, where Barry Bonds homers occasionally go splash.
Mike West arrived in his whitewater raft six hours before Tuesday's Game 3 between the Giants and the Angels. He came with a pair of oars, three layers of heavy clothing and a cooler with sandwiches, peanuts and what he insisted was nothing stronger than fruit juice to keep him warm.
West, 38, took a day off from his job as a glazier in San Jose to row around the cove, hoping a ball would come flying in his direction. He had a fishing net ready, as well as his junior high mitt.
Even though his only way of following the game was on a Walkman, he could see fans who had gathered early along the right-field arcade for batting practice and heard the cheers from the stadium.
"It's fun, because you still feel the energy of the crowd," he said. "The excitement will kick in, and I'll stay warm."
The inlet off San Francisco Bay, named for former Giants slugger Willie McCovey, is a popular spot for baseball fans and curious boaters on summer afternoon games. Special events, such as the playoffs and games in which Bonds is on the verge of homer milestones, also draw a crowd at night.
The cove was expected to be packed Tuesday night, even though temperatures in the 50s and strong winds promised a bone-chilling experience for all but the 115 fans tailgating in comfort on the McCovey Cove Patrol, a 70-foot-long charter boat.
McCovey Cove has earned a reputation for creative occupants.
There's weird stuff happening out there all the time.
"The odds of getting a ball out here are a lot better than the 40,000 fans paying $500 apiece."
David Brandenburger salesman and baseball fan
"We've seen a putting green floating out there, barbecues towed by vessels. We've had weddings out there."
time. You'll see people in inflatable wading pools, people with dogs waiting to chase home run balls," said Alfonso Felder, transportation manager for the Giants.
And on this night, 29-year-old salesman David Brandenburger was out there on a jet ski, braving the cold in shorts and flip flops, hoping to snare a ball.
McCovey Cove has its own Web site, honoring guys such as Tom Hoynes, whose dinghy did not miss a game throughout the entire 2000 season—the team's first at Pac Bell Park.
And then there's Joseph Figone, a former Candlestick Park groundskeeper. He snagged the first regular-season ball hit into the bay, as well as Bonds' 500th career homer.
"The odds of getting a ball out here are a lot better than the 40,000 fans paying $500 apiece," he said.
The biggest problem often comes from fans in the right-field stands who throw "dork" balls into the water. Cove denizens listening on radios hear a roar and think a ball is coming their way, when in fact it may be heading to left field.
There are few rules in the cove, except that no motors are allowed within 75 feet of shore. The San Francisco Port Commission imposed such restrictions after Figone's motorized inflatable boat nearly collided with a surfer going after No. 500.
"The fans stand up on the top of the arcade," West said. "They throw a ball and everyone scrambles for it."

WORLD SERIES
Sniezio gives team a boost
SAN FRANCISCO—Scott Spiezio is willing to dye for the Angels.
The player with streaks of red in his hair and goatee helped paint this oI' town Angel red Tuesday night, getting the biggest hit as Anaheim burst to an 8-1 lead and silenced all those Giants fans in orange and black.
Spiezio's two-run triple to the deepest part of the ballpark put the Angels firmly in control in a four-run third inning. He singled home another run in the fourth as the Angels went on to a 10 4 victory and a 2-1 World Series lead.
These days, he's making noise with his bat, not his band.
A heavy metal rocker, Spiezio's quick with a joke and with his stroke.
"My mom keeps saying, 'I can't believe you're in the World Series,' I said, 'Why not? Dad was in three,' Spiezio said last week. "She said, 'But you're playing.'"
Ed Spiezio, a backup for the St. Louis Cardinals, went 1-for-2 lifetime in Series play. His son is already 4-for-11 with five RBIs after batting .375 with 11 RBIs in the AL playoffs.
"Every question about Spiezio now is, 'Is he deserving of a Gold Glove?' Angels outfielder Tim Salmon said. "Well, they're getting to see him now. They're getting to see what he can do with the glove and what he can do with the bat."

Cyclones' Price sheds pounds to play better ball
The Associated Press
AMES, Iowa—Iowa State's Jake Sullivan took one for the team—he gave up potato chips.
It was a slimmer Sullivan who stood among reporters at the basketball team's media on Tuesday. The 6-foot-1 junior dropped 20 pounds over the summer in hopes of getting quicker, making himself a more versatile player and, above all, helping the Cyclones win more games.
"I want to get this program back to the top." Sullivan said. "Part of it was losing 20 pounds so I can guard guys like Hollis Price."
Price, the All-America guard at Oklahoma, was Sullivan's inspiration. Sullivan, who played at 210 last season, was gassed after trying to guard Price in an 89-75 loss at Oklahoma in late February.
"He ran me all over the floor. I couldn't breathe the whole game. I couldn't guard him," Sullivan said. "After that night I got on the bus and just said I'm going to do something when the off-season
So Sullivan put himself on a healthier diet. He ate fat-free frozen yogurt instead of ice cream, he ran more and, the hardest thing of all, gave up potato chips.
"I could sit down and just eat chips and chips forever," he said with a smile. "I had to give up all that kind of stuff. But I just kept in focus where I could get this team and it was a little bit easier to do."
comes because I don't want to get my butt kicked like that again_by a great player, but at the same point. I want to get to the level he's at."
After winning two straight Big 12 championships, Iowa State slipped to 12-19 last season and finished next to last in the league at 4-12. Sullivan is the top returning scorer from that team, which suffered a string of narrow losses in the final minute.
Leading scorer Tyray Person is gone and ironman Shane Power, who averaged almost 38 minutes a game, has transferred to Mississippi State.
But the Cyclones should get help from a strong recruiting class
that has 6-5 freshman Adam Haluska of Carroll and three junior college transfers: 6-10 Jackson Vroman, 7-1 Chris Alexander and 6-foot Tim Barnes.
Barnes could be the most valuable addition because he's a mature point guard who's quick and has good range as a shooter.
"Tim can get down the court and really pick up and create havoc and bother people," coach Larry Fustachy said. "He's probably quicker than most guards in our league."
Eustachy said Alexander is behind the other newcomers because of some personal problems, but Vroman, a tenacious rebounder, should help immediately.
"I love Jackson. He's just relentless," Eustachy said. "He rebounds out of his area like few people. He's really competitive and feisty. He's got a terrific mental makeup."
Haluska, who won eight state championships in track, will help with his athletic ability and shooting.
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Asked if he might extend his three-year contract with Kansas City, coach Dick Vermeil's answer is quick and to the point.
Vermeil not living legacy
"No."
It's not surprising that Vermeil, 66, would not be interested in going beyond 2003. If the Chiefs can't find a cure for a terrible defense in the next 12 months, a wonderful coaching legacy could be in trouble of falling with a thud.
Hailed as one of the coaching fraternity's most respected elder statesmen,the likable wine connoisseur and his wife of more than 40 years retired to a beautiful home in the Pennsylvania woodlands.
Until he got here, Vermeil's career was an unbroken string of success. His UCLA team beat top-ranked Ohio State in the Rose Bowl, then he coached Philadelphia to the Super Bowl and took St. Louis to the Super Bowl championship.
But 21 months ago he let his old friend, Chiefs president Carl Peterson, talk him out of retirement. His three-year, $10 mil lion contract provided finance security.
But it is coming at a steep price.
He finds himself with perhaps one of the finest offenses and definitely the worst defense in the league,with a 3-4 record and a two-game skid after losing double-digit leads two weeks in a row in the fourth quarter.
After a 37-34 overtime loss to Denver Sunday, he is in no mood to think about coaching one day more than he has to.
"I tell you this, when I walked in my office Sunday after that game, saw my wife, and saw my coaching staff's wives _ it ain't worth it," Vermeil said Tuesday. "You're not the only one who suffers. You're not the only one who dies."
"I lost most of the money I made with the Rams. It cost me money to go to the Super Bowl," he said. "I gave my bonus money to my coaching staff."
Money, he acknowledged was an important factor in his decision to come out of retirement.
When he was with the Eagles
in the 1970, coaches were not making the enormous sums many make today. Looking back, he realizes that selling his services so inexpensively was wrong.
"I never coached football in my life because it was a way to make a living. It was my life. It's what I had to do," he said.
"It was my passion. But I wouldn't do it without being paid appropriately because I did that for seven years in Philadelphia. I ended up with nothing when I got all finished, other than a Super Bowl ring.
"I don't think that's fair. I don'tthink it should be that way, and it's not that way anymore. It wasn't that way in the Rams and it's not that way here."
Without question, the Chiefs' offense is playing well enough to get Vermeil a third Super Bowl ring. But the defense is ranked dead last among the 32 teams and has been all season.
There seems little hope for any quick improvement, even perhaps next year, Vermeil's final season in a lifetime of coaching.
'Cats unable to connect and convert despite confidence

Roberson tried to find Terry one last time inside the 5-yard line, but Terry was covered, and couldn't hold on to the football.
Terry said the coverage on that play showed the Texas defenders' ability to stay with receivers at
crucial times. He said their speed on defense meant he had to be on his game just to get open.
"To get away, you have to basically run good routes," he said. "You can't run right by them, you have to run good routes to get open."
With 15 catches already this year, Terry is on pace of equaling his total of 32 at Butler County.

Angels' rookie to start on birthday
The Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO—John Lackey can give himself the best birthday present of all—a World Series victory.
The Anaheim Angels' rookie right-hander will start Game 4 against the San Francisco Giants on Wednesday night—his 24th birthday.
"Yeah, it's pretty cool." Lackey said Tuesday. "I was born during the World Series. It's something I've been doing on my birthday for a lot of years, watching the World Series. It's pretty cool that I'm actually in it and I'm going to get an opportunity to be playing in it."
Lackey has seen some memorable games on his birthday, including Joe Carter's Series-winning homer for Toronto in 1993 and the Yankees' comeback from a six-run deficit to win Game 4 in 1996 against Atlanta.
"I'm a huge baseball fan so I've seen them all pretty much," Lackey said. "I haven't ever missed one."
Lackey seems more poised than most young pitchers. He made his major league debut in June and was an instant hit, going 9-4 with a 3.66 ERA and winning the wild-card clinching game
against Texas.
He's been even tougher in the postseason, going 1-0 with a 1.46 ERA in 12 1-3 innings out of the bulpen and as a starter. He pitched seven scoreless innings to win Game 4 of the ALCS against Minnesota.
"There's a lot that goes into John Lackey's success," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. "First and foremost, he has an outstanding arm. He's got very good command of three pitches. Whatever start he's taken in our organization, he showed the same great makeup on the mound, his ability to get over rough spots in a game."
Lackey also offers another key trait that makes him a good pick to pitch Game 4 at Pacific Bell Park, where pitchers have to hit.
Lackey is probably the most accomplished hitter among the Angels, batting .428 with 15 homers and 81 RBIs for Grayson County College. He even hit a game-winning homer in the Junior College World Series.
"He's going to influence the game a lot more by going out there and making pitches than anything he does at the plate." Scioscia said. "I don't care how good a hitter the pitcher is."
Lackey also has another
He got that out of the way in Game 2, when he pitched 2 1-3 innings in relief of an ineffective Kevin Appier. Lackey allowed two runs, but he doesn't expect the outing to hinder his performance Wednesday because he was supposed to throw in the bullpen Sunday anyway.
advantage. He won't have the nerves of making his Series debut.
He also doesn't think it will be difficult to face the same team twice in four days.
"I got a little feel of them, the way they're setting up in the box and how I might go after them," Lackey said. "They saw what I've got. It works both ways."
Kirk Rueter will start for the Giants. He hasn't faced the Angels since the 2001 season, when he allowed one run in seven innings of a win at home.
"They have a great lineup," he said. "I think you have to worry up and down the lineup. There's not an easy out. So you have to concentrate out there and make your pitches to everybody."
After getting hammered in Game 2 of the division series against Atlanta, Rueter got the win in NLCS opener against St. Louis and pitched six scoreless innings in the Game 5 clincher.
Cleveland's Thome wins Clemente award
The Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO—Cleveland first baseman Jim Thome won the Roberto Clemente Award for his community service and found out the Indians will offer him a new contract next week.
Inome, the team's top hitter, is eligible to become a free agent following the World Series. Indians general manager Mark Shapiro said he will make the offer Oct. 31 when he meets with Thome's agent, Pat Rooney, in Cleveland.
Cleveland is expected to offer a four- to six-year deal.
Thome, the Indians' career home run leader, hit 52 homers last season. He batted .304 and led the American League in walks and slugging percentage.
He became the second Indians player to win the Clemente Award, given annually to the player who combines outstanding playing ability with work in the community.
Roberto Clement, I heard about a tremendous ballplayer," Thome said yesterday. "It wasn't until I was nominated for this award that I realized what a tremendous human being he was."
"As a kid, when I heard about
Thome said his wife, Andrea, told him that he was jittery preparing to receive the award from commissioner Bud Selig.
"You weren't this nervous playing in Game 7 of the 1997 World Series," Thome remembered her telling him.
John Hancock, which sponsors the award, will donate $30,000 in Thome's name to Roberto Clemente Sports City, a sports and education center in Puerto Rico, and $25,000 to the Steve Palermo Chapter of the National Paralysis Center in Leawood in the name of Thome's nephew, Brandon Thome.
Brandon, 16, broke his neck while diving into a swimming pool this summer and remains paralyzed from the waist down. Thome paid for all the upgrades
to Brandon's house to make it handicap accessible, Indians spokesman Bart Swain said.
Thome has spent his entire 13-career with the Indians. His community work includes serving as honorary co-chairman of the United Way Softball Slam, which raised almost $200,000, and holding charity events at the children's hospital in his hometown of Peoria, Ill., over the past six years.
For the past five years, he and his wife have delivered toys to youth groups that serve disadvantaged kids.

Sprewell to play for Knicks despite Monday's bizarre incident
The award began in 1971 and was renamed three years later for Clemente, who died in a plane crash while delivering supplies to Nicaraguan earthquake victims. Recipients have to exemplify sportsmanship, community involvement and value to their teams.
The Associated Press
NEW YORK—Latrell Sprewell will "absolutely" play for the New York Knicks this season, despite a strained relationship that took an ugly turn with a series of bizarre events Monday.
"Certainly yesterday was a New York moment." general manager Scott Layden said before last night's exhibition game against Utah at Madison Square Garden.
When asked whether Sprewell would play again for New York this season, Layden responded, "Oh, absolutely."
Even jaded Big Apple fans
were surprised by Monday's weirdness.
First, Sprewell's agent said at a Manhattan hotel that a $40 million lawsuit had been filed against The New York Post for its account of how Sprewell broke his right pinkle.
Sprewell ripped Layden and executive Steve Mills, who earlier this month fined the player $250.000 for not promptly reporting the injury. Sprewell argued that his banishment from the team was unfair and possibly a violation of the collective bargaining agreement.
A few hours after his impromptu news conference, the
Knicks suspended Sprewell for last night's game - costing him another $137,500 in salary - for obeying the team during his rehabilitation.
Aside from announcing that a surgically inserted pin had been removed from Sprewell's right pinkie yesterday, Layden had little new to offer. He refused to respond to Sprewell's caustic remarks, and he didn't say when his star might rejoin the team.
Sprewell said Monday he could be playing a week into the regular season, which begins Oct. 30 at Detroit. A team spokesman said yesterday Sprewell will begin physical therapy to restore full
movement in his right hand, and he'll be evaluated in another week.
Chaney and the rest of the Knicks want him back badly.
"We all want him back so we can win some games," Chaney said. "We realize that with him out, it hurts our chances for winning."
Sprewell has angered the Knicks before, but the team usually looks the other way. The Knicks fined him $125,000 for missing a shootaround in Miami in April, but Sprewell convinced them to rescind all but $2,500 of it.
But the team laid down the law
when Sprewell reported for camp with a broken finger, without having told the team previously. He claims he slipped and fell on his yacht. The Post, quoting anonymous sources, reported that Sprewell threw a punch at someone on the boat and hit a wall instead.
Sprewell said Monday that he and the Knicks could work out their differences, but "I don't know if that's what they really want, because they keep trying to push me further away."
The Knicks suspended Sprewell for last night's game, in part, because he cut off the splint cast on his finger. Sprewell said
he's a week ahead of schedule in his recovery.
Chaney said Sprewell is "the one guy I know who can put this behind him."
"I can't speak for him or speak for how he thinks," Chaney said. "All I know is that I've worked with him, and I expect him, when he walks on the court, to be a team player and concentrate on winning."
Sprewell was suspended for the final 68 games of the 1997-98 season by the NBA after choking Golden State coach PJ. Carlesimo. The suspension cost Sprewell $6.4 million in salary.

Terrapin football team faces challenges
By Andrew Levine
The Diamondback via U-wire
University of Maryland
COLLEGE PARK, Md. — The Maryland Terrapin football team's defense has faced a wide array of challenges this season with respect to its opposition's offensive schemes and personnel, and each time it has found a new way to make the proper adjustments.
The team's 34-10 win over Georgia Tech Thursday was no exception. The Terps (5-2, 1-1 ACC) managed to weather an early offensive barrage from Georgia Tech, and despite yielding 485 yards of total offense, allowed only three points until late in the fourth quarter when the game was out of reach.
The Terps now lead the ACC
"Georgia Tech is a good football team," senior defensive end Durrand Roundtree said. "But it was 'bend but don't break.' That kind of sums up our defense and our team as a whole. Things aren't always going to go our way. But we're strong and we're going to survive and come out on top."
and rank 12th nationally in scoring defense (15.9 points per game).
It was the defense's playmaking ability coach Ralph Friedgen has raved about since the preseason that ultimately made the difference. The secondary was able to break up several key passes in the end zone and a potentially backbreaking Georgia Tech touchdown was minimized to an inconsequential field goal during a pivotal sequence toward the end of the half.
Georgia Tech's Levon Thomas almost scored on a nine-yard reverse, but sophomore cornerback Domonique Foxworth nailed him at the Terps' one-yard line. Senior linebacker E.J. Henderson halted tailback Gordon Clinkscale behind the line of scrimmage on the next play as the Yellow Jackets settled for a 19-yard field goal and the Terps held a 6-3 lead at the half.
The Terps recovered two of Georgia Tech's four fumbles, and Foxworth turned one of them into a 12-yard touchdown return for the team's first defensive score this season.
"I'm starting to see those big plays," Friedgen said. "I think Domonique had the play of the game on that reverse. If he doesn't stop him, the game is 7-6 and Georgia Tech has the lead going
into the half and it's a different game."
Some particularly strong individual performances fueled the Terps' staunch defensive effort. Frieden singled out Foxworth, junior free safety Madieu Williams (10 tackles) and offered some high praise for Roundtree, who provided constant pressure on Georgia Tech quarterback A.J Suggs.
"I think Durrand Roundtree may have had the best game of his career," Friedgen said. "He didn't have any sacks but he had a lot of hurries. He missed a tackle on that reverse, but he was in the right position. He played a good, solid football game."
McBrien left the game after a 10-yard run when some dirt from the Byrd Stadium field kicked up and temporarily impaired his vision. The Terps attempted to place a visor on McBrien's helmet, but an official told Friedgen the team needed to place a formal request before the game for all
strengths all season. The Terps made only 76 percent of their tackles Thursday, which is short of their weekly goal of 83 percent. This was only the second time this season the Terps have failed to reach their expected tackling mark.
the detail-oriented Friedgen did touch on some concerns about his team's tackling, which has been one of the Terps $ ^{i} $

players who wanted to use a visor.
"Unless I have extra sensory perception, I'm not going to make any requests," he said. "Otherwise I'd have to request a visor for every player on the team. You would think common sense would take over with something like that."

This and That: Senior Scooter Monroe's 106-yard receiving effort made him the first Terp receiver since 1997 to pass the 100-yard mark... All four of McBrien's interceptions this season have come during losses. He has attempted 75 consecutive passes without an interception and has not thrown a pick since the first half of the Terps' Sept. 14 loss to Florida State.

Cyclones try to rebound against ranked Texas
By Rick Kerr
iowa State Daily via U-wire
iowa State University
AMES, Iowa—After being dismantled by the Oklahoma Sooners last Saturday, the 17th-ranked Iowa State football team will look to rebound this week when it travels to Austin, Texas to face the eighth-ranked Texas Longhorns.
The Cyclones (6-2, 3-1 Big 12) will face their second consecutive top 10 opponent when they meet Texas (6-1, 2-1), ISU head football coach Dan McCarney was disappointed with his team's performance at Norman, but he knows that it was only one game.
"It's a hard loss for us, obviously," McCarney said. "I just remind them that we're not 2-6, we're 6-2, and we've still done a lot of good things this year."
McCarney also said the Cyclones can't dwell on last week with the opponent they face this weekend.
"We can't sit around and keep worrying about the Oklahoma game. It's all done and behind us," he said. "Texas is a tremendous football team. We're really going to have our hands full, and hopefully we can bounce back and play much better football this Saturday."
The Longhorns responded to their own loss to Oklahoma the previous week by defeating Kansas State 17-14 on Saturday.
Texas head football coach Mack Brown has been impressed with the Cyclones this season, regardless of their performance
against the Sooners.
"Iowa State has hud a great year," Brown said. "They ran into a buzzsaw on Saturday, but Oklahoma is a great team."
Brown expects a tough game with the Cyclones, and he knows that McCarney will have them ready. "They'll bounce back because [McCarney] is as tough and as strong and aggressive a personality as any coach in the country right now," he said. "I give [him] credit for turning that program around and making it one of the best in the country."
Texas features a defense that is allowing only 13.7 points per game, good for fifth in the nation.
Their offense is led by senior quarterback Chris Simms, averaging 214 yards per game, and sophomore running back Cedric Benson, who is third in rushing in the Big 12 with 105 yards per game.
Iowa State continues their gruesome second-half schedule of road games, but McCarney is not looking for any sympathy.
"If you got a good football team -- which I thought we did, I think we do, I believe we do -- then you enjoy going on the road in those atmospheres where it's you against the world," he said. "Your focus has to be tremendous when you go in environments like that, but that's part of the challenge as a coach or a player. It's a tough battle, but we're not waiting for any sympathy vards, and we're not getting any."
Texas is well aware of what they have to do to beat Iowa State
"(Seneca Wallace) didn't play well, but neither did anybody else on our offense. He's a fabulous young man and he's a great competitor."
Dan McCarney
Iowa State head coach
-- contain quarterback Seneca Wallace -- and after the Oklahoma game, they have seen how it can be done.
McCarney is aware of this, and knows that everyone else will be studying the tape as well.
"Everybody knows he's the key to our offense, and now Oklahoma's done just a fantastic job of shutting him down and shutting our offense down, and there hasn't been a lot of that this year," he said. "It's a tremendous challenge, but one that we're looking forward to, and we're hoping that we can play a lot better football this week."
After his performance against Oklahoma, finishing with 43 passing yards and three interceptions, many feel Wallace may have lost his chance at the Heisman, but Brown has seen this kind of thing before -- when he coached a Heisman winner, current Miami Dolphin running back Ricky Williams.
Dazzling Texas Tech offense to roll into stiff defense
By Will Shanley Colorado Daily via U-wire The University of Colorado
BOULDER, Colo.—Practice makes perfect, or so the saying goes.
And for the Colorado defense, practice hopefully will produce proficiency when Texas Tech and its three-ring circus spread offense travel to Boulder this weekend for a crucial Big 12 tilt.
The Buffaloes' most recent opponents, Kansas and Baylor, hopefully have supplied sufficient practice for the Buff defenders, considering both teams utilized a similar offensive style to Texas Tech - one that employs three and four wide receiver spread sets.
Inaddition, the Buffs can add San Diego State, a team the Buffs dropped 34-14 earlier this year, to the list of Buff opponents that run wide-open, pass-happy attacks. Basically, the schemes attempt to spread the field with multiple receivers and create opportunities on short routes and over the middle.
"If you could pick the progression through a schedule; to have the one (running) back Kansas, the one back or no back Baylor, and now the one back Texas Tech offense, I think that works to our advantage." said CU defensive coordinator Vince Okruch after Saturday's game. "I feel that way right now – to have those two games prior to Texas Tech, that will help us."
going over the top for big scoring strikes.
And if the last weekend's shutout of Baylor was any indication, then the Buffalo defense might be peaking at an appropriate time. The 251 yards yielded by the Buffalo defense was their most stingy effort of the season, and the four turnovers collected and four sacks recorded were also season bests. The shutout was the first one posted by the Buffs since a 37-0 drubbing -- also of Baylor -- in 1999.
"We challenged our defense this week in practice and they accepted the challenge and they answered it," head coach Gary Barnett said. "It is hard to get a shutout no matter who you are playing, but I thought we tackled well and played the ball well."
However, Barnett admitted that the Baylor offense was not as lethal as some squads in the Big 12, considering the Bears offense has been shutout twice this season and ranks 70th nationally in total yards per game. But Barnett added that like Baylor, Texas Tech employs a nearly identical offensive scheme, relying almost exclusively on the pass.
Kliff Kingsbury leads the powerful Tech offense, as the senior QB surpassed the 10,000 career yards mark with an amazing 510 yards passing last week against Missouri.
Kingsbury leads the Big 12 and is 15th nationally with a 145.9 QB rating.
These similarities are something that the Buffs hope will work to their advantage next week against an explosive Texas Tech offense.
"Last week (against Kansas) we put in a lot of new stuff for those kids, a lot of new zones and we made some mental mistakes," secondary coach Vance Joseph said. "This week we took some of that stuff out and played more base dime (six defensive backs)... and this will help over the next two games against Tech and Oklahoma, because we will be in dime coverages for the next two weeks."
Joseph said that although the Buffs struggled with newly incorporated defensive looks and coverages against Kansas, the Jayhawks punished CU for 29 points and 450 yards, reintegrating some of those complex defenses against Texas Tech will be paramount in slowing down a team led by experienced quarterback Kliff Kingsbury.
"Playing a senior quarterback like that, we will need to have a lot of different looks because we can't just sit back and be targets," Joseph said. "We have been preparing for the last month and it showed last week by putting in some new defenses. Now we have scaled down to where we can really handle it."
For the Buffs, the practice has been performed, and now they must execute.

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN = 7P
Texas player grateful to be on court
By Shannon Owens Daily Texan via U-wire University of Texas
AUSTIN, Texas—It's easy to miss Kathy Hahn's transformation by watching her on the court.
After all, the redshirt sophomore punishes opponents with her explosive slides, leads the team in blocking (1.11) and hitting percentages (.346), while maintaining a reserved demeanor.
But her powerful court performance derives from an inward change.
"Now when she's on the court, she feels blessed to be there," said Hahn's mother, Bonnie. "I've noticed the change in her spiritually."
Hahn's experienced great joy and deep sorrow with a sport she passionately loves.
After only one year at Texas, Hahn led the Big 12 conference in hitting percentage .(347) and blocks (1.09). She gave a strong freshman performance, but the success began to consume her
life.
"My freshman year was all about volleyball," Hahn said.
Bitter disappointment quickly followed her immediate success.
She missed last season due to injuries that she declined to talk about, although she was forced to find a comfortable position on the bench. She frequently had to ice her left knee.
She knew the season was going to be challenging,but she didn't realize how harsh her new reality would be.
"There were times I'd put my arms around her [after a game], and she'd cry," Bonnie Hahn said.
As Hahn sat on the bench, she realized she filled her life with little outside her sport.
"I felt almost like I had come into a dead end in my life, and I didn't know what to do with myself," Hahn said. "If I didn't have volleyball, I didn't have anything."
Hahn didn't want to retire after her sophomore season and contemplated playing, despite her ailing body. However, she decided to rest and rehabilitate for the next season after consulting family, doctors and the coach.
ing body.
"I remember the day we actually decided," Hahn said. "I went to dinner with my parents the night before, and we talked about it. It wasn't just my decision because it was going to affect my family, me, the coaches, the team ... everybody was in on it."
She knew the decision to redshirt her sophomore season was wise, but not being able to contribute on the court left Hahn feeling helpless and discouraged.
True to her nature, Hahn didn't share her feelings with many people.
"It was really hard on her," Bonnie Hahn said. "She didn't talk to me much about it."
Words from Hahn may have been sparse,but she didn't completely shut out her family and friends during her experience.
"During that time period, she put on a happy face and didn't let anybody know she was suffering," said defensive specialist and friend Whitney Garvens. "But after a game or after a practice, I'd hear a knock on my door, and she'd always come talk to me. It was her way for releasing everything."
Talking to family and close friends helped ease her pain, but she finally got closure through her faith in God.
"I think God said, 'Volleyball's too much of your life,'" Hahn said. "Not being able to play showed me that volleyball wasn't the only thing in my life."
With a new focus, Hahn's able to have the best of both worlds. She's able to enjoy her sport without allowing it to define her, and she continues to dominate on the court.
Hahn will utilize her newfound balance Tuesday night as she and the Longhorns face-off against Southwest Texas State. This is Texas' first non-Big 12 conference match in the team's last 10 matches. Texas leads the series with a 31-9-0 advantage over the Bobcats.
No.1 in standings often means trouble
By Andrew Bagno
Chicago Tribune
via KRT news service
Bad news, Oklahoma: You're No.1 in the first Bowl Championship Series standings. In three of the system's first four years,the team that first was No.1 has ended up in oblition rather than the national title game.
In 1998, the first BCS No. 1, UCLA, dropped its regular-season finale to Miami. In 2000, Nebraska was the first No. 1. The Cornhuskers lost to No. 2 Oklahoma.
In 2001, Oklahoma topped the charts at the start. The Sooners lost to Nebraska. The only team
to survive the BCS curse is Florida State, which led from the first standings in 1999 on its way to a Sugar Bowl victory over Virginia Tech.
No wonder Sooners coach Bob Stoops wasn't too excited about the news out of BCS headquarters Monday afternoon.
"It's too early right now for us to care one way or the other," Stoops said. "What we do care about is winning. We're going to keep our focus and total concentration on winning the Big 12 South first."
The BCS is used to determine the matchup in the Fiesta Bowl, site of January's national title game. This year's tweaked BCS
formula weighs the AP and coaches Top 25 polls; an average of seven computer rating systems with the worst score thrown out; strength of schedule; and number of losses.
Teams earn a bonus for "quality wins" over schools ranked in the BCS Top 10.
The Sooners are ranked behind the Hurricanes in the two major polls, but they leapfrogged the Hurricanes with the help of the computers. The Sooners had an average computer standing of 1.50, versus Miami's 4.35. In the BCS, the lower the number, the better.
Notre Dame, which is sixth in the traditional polls, is ranked
irst by four of the computers. The Fighting Irish also were boosted by the top schedule.
There are seven unbeaten teams from BCS conferences. The system may be in for a shock if three finish the regular season with perfect records. That hasn't happened in the BCS' first four years.
"You know, there are seven weeks to go, there are so many games to be played," said BCS coordinator Michael Tranghese, commissioner of the Big East. "But right now, I didn't think at this stage of the season that the top six teams in the BCS poll would be undefeated, but they are."
Texas quarterback rebounds post loss
by Bob Jones Daily Texan via U-wire University of Texas
AUSTIN, Texas—One of Mack Brown's aphorisms goes something like this: "The way you respond to bad days is a whole lot more important than the way you respond to good days."
One week removed from what fans and media describe as a "career-defining" loss to Oklahoma, quarterback Chris Simms responded in kind, leading Texas to an upset of No. 17 Kansas State in the Wildcats' home stadium.
white Simms' stats weren't gaudy, as the senior threw for just 184 yards, his play under pressure was crucial to the Longhorns' victory.
With the score tied late in the fourth quarter and Texas faced with a third-and-long situation. Simms received a play from offensive coordinator Greg Davis that called for wideout B.J. Johnson to run a square pattern.
After observing Kansas State's defensive formation, Simms recalled that the same Wildcat blitz formation had earlier resulted in a sack. Simms quickly called an audible at the line, changing all three of his receivers' routes to "go" patterns -- streaks down the field.
Sure enough, Kansas State sent the house, and Simms was flattened by three Wildcats. But 32 yards downfield, Johnson had hauled in a pass versus man coverage, and the Longhorns were set up for Dusty Mangum's game-winning field goal.
"It was the biggest throw I've had this year," Simms said. "It really kept our hopes alive."
Following the game, Simms was understandably defiant, flouting the expectations that he might choke after throwing an interception earlier in the contest.
"There's probably a chip on my shoulder every game really," Simms said.
Not only must Simms deal with opposing defenders who love to call him a "spoiled brat," and taunt the senior with remarks like, "You're only here because of your dad," but he has recently picked up a new moniker which opposing fans love to harass him with.
"Everybody likes to call me
'Chrishe's now,' Simms said.
"It started at the Oklahoma game, and the Kansas State fans were yelling it too."
But despite the Texas-sized expectations that constantly weigh heavy on the shoulders of the blond, blue-eyed kid from New Jersey, Simms apparently has no regrets about attending a school with arguably the highest profile in the nation.
According to his head coach, Mack Brown's wife Sally asked Simms on the bus after the game if he had enjoyed his experience at the 40 Acres.
The signal-caller's response?
"Absolutely. I love Texas."
This in spite of the criticism that follows Simms seemingly wherever he goes.
Brown is well aware of his quarterback's resilience, as well as the label of someone who can't win the big game that has been stamped on Simms.
In fact, amid the chilly atmosphere after the Kansas State win. Brown refused to bow to the critics and instead praised the senior for his winning ways, acknowledging Simms' 22-5 record as a starter.

NEW YORK — Nearly every TV season brings a newly designated "It Girl."
The Associated Press
Last fall, Jennifer Garner of Alias was clearly "It."
In years before that she was Keri Russell of Felicity. Jenna Elfman of Dharma & Greg. Sarah Michelle Gallar of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
A title first bestowed on silent-screen siren Clara Bow, "It Girl" had racer overtones 75 years ago.
TVseason's'ItGirl'emerges
Now, in the television age, "It" anoints an emerging starlet who seems to lead the pack in fresh-faced appeal ... a gal the whole nation can have a crush on.
This fall, Ashley Williams is a shoo-in with her new romantic comedy, Good Morning Miami, which airs at 9:30 p.m. EDT Thursdays on NBC.
Williams plays Dylan Messinger, the pixieish hairstylist for a local morning TV show whose snarky host (played by Matt Letscher) she is dating —
And can anyviewer blame him?
With her larky presence and dazzling smile, Dylan (that is,
Williams) is the essence of It-itude.
"They needed a new Fall face," says Williams, flashing that smile gratefully, "and I was right there, with bells on."
much to the consternation of the show's just-hired producer (Mark Feuerstein), who is also her tormented secret admirer.
Williams, who turns 24 next month, has come a long way since March, when she won the role.
On the other hand, she is no beginner. As a youngster growing up just outside of New York, she staged living-room productions with her brother and older sister, Kimberly (who now co-stars on the BIC sitcom According to Jim).
"Our parents' poor dinner guests would be forced to sit through our performances," she said.
By her early teens, she was appearing in commercials.
She managed to juggle her high school studies with a regular role

on the CBS soap As the World Turns.
Then last winter she landed at her sister's house in Los Angeles, borrowed a friend's car and wangled an audition for Good Morning Miami.

And as she presses on toward long-term success, she's relishing her moment in the "it" Parade.
A half-year and "a mind-boggling miracle" later, Williams is plushly lodged on Must-See TV and lives just a block from her sister (they have the same commute to the studio lot where both their series shoot).
Completing high school in 1997, Williams left World when they sent her character to Helsinki, Finland, and headed to Boston University's theater conservatory, where she said no one knew she had been on a soap and she could be a normal kid.
After college, she spent time at the Williamstown Theatre Festival in Massachusetts and understudied for the off-Broadway hit The Shape of Things.

Along with the increased attention at practice, Mangino has made personnel changes to boost
Dyer said yesterday that talent was not a problem for the Jayhawks, only confidence.
the lavhawks defensive depth
Former quarterback Zach Dyer, a senior, made his first start at safety against Texas A&M Saturday. In only his second game on defense since high school, Dyer recorded five solo tackles and 12 overall, second on the team.
"That's another reason for doing the one-on-one drills,"
Dyer said. "To show them that they do have the ability."
Like Texas A&M, Kansas' next opponent has the ability to run and throw the ball.
Missouri's second year freshman quarterback Smith already owns the Tigers' freshman rushing record with 663 yards in seven games. He also has 1451 passing yards this season.

named the starter for Missouri's season opener against Illinois after he outplayed Tigers senior quarterback Kirk Farmer in practice.
Over the first seven weeks of the season Smith has made a believer out of Tiger coach Gary Pinkel. The Missouri offense is averaging 410 yards per game and 31.6 points per game.
In the nationally televised game, Smith broke out as he amassed 290 total offensive yards and led the Tigers to a 33-20 win over the Illini.
Smith's breakout extended over the ensuing weeks as he totaled 391 yards in a 31-24 loss against the vaunted University of Oklahoma defense on Oct. 5 in Columbia, Mo.

"Whatever my team needs me to do,it's my responsibility to do just that. We're looking forward to any kind of challenge."
Brad Smith Missouri quarterback
Tech, Smith had one of his most complete games of his college career as he had 275 passing yards and three touchdowns, but his Tigers fell to 0-3 in the Big 12 with a 52-38 loss to the Red Raiders.
"Whatever my team needs me to do, it's my responsibility to do just that," Smith said. "We're looking forward to any kind of challenge."
The only thing that stands in the way of Smith, whose 302 yards per game is second in the Big 12 and seventh in the nation in total offense, is the Kansas defense that is ranked last in the Big 12 in defense.
Over the past three weeks, the Jayhawk defenders have grown accustomed to watching opposing players compile 300- yard plus offensive performances.
Texas A&M quarterback Dustin Long had 399 passing yards against Kansas last Saturday that was proceeded by University of Colorado Chris Brown's 309 rushing yards on Oct.12.
In the Baylor loss on Oct. 5, Bears quarterback Aaron Karas picked apart the Jayhawk secondary for 359 passing yards and a win halting Baylor's 29 game B12 losestreak.
Stopping Smith this week is one of the toughest tasks that the Kansas defense will face this season according to junior strong safety Zach Dyer.
"People have had trouble with him," Dyersaid. "You have to prepare for both threats, the running and passing."
Saturday will be Smith's first action in the Kansas-Missouri rivalry, but he is not immune to the feelings that surround the game.
"From what Coach Pinkel and the rest of the guys have told me, this is the most important game of the year," Smith said.
"We hear about it everywhere we go. People tell us, 'if nothing else, beat KU.' It's amazing to see how big of a rivalry this is."

NCAA athletes'eligibility faces sweeping changes
Student athletes must now score at least 820 on the SATs, but the changes would allow freshmen to become eligible with lower test scores, with a higher corresponding GPA. The minimum GPA of 2.0 in core courses remains unchanged although high school students would now have to complete 14 core courses, one more than the current rule.
INDIANAPOLIS— The NCAA wants to change eligibility requirements for incoming student-athletes by lowering the emphasis on standardized tests and increasing the weight of classroom work.
The Associated Press
In a sweeping package of academic reforms approved Tuesday, the Management Council increased the number of core courses high school students must take and extended the "sliding scale" that helps determine freshmen eligibility.
If approved by the NCAA's Board of Directors on Oct. 31, the changes would take effect next year.
The change has been discussed since January, when the NCAA released data showing that students with higher GPAs fare better in college than those with
"We now have the best research data ever available to us, in terms of predicting success, during the first two years of college," said Percy Bates, the council's chairman. "That research clearly indicates that the number of core courses, and the performance in those courses, are the best predictor of college success."
The council had discussed the proposed changes at its meetings in April and August but did not act until Tuesday.
higher test scores.
As part of the reform package, the council approved other changes that would increase the workload to remain eligible while attending college.
College students would have to accrue 24 semester hours before entering their second academic year, while maintaining a minimum load of 18 hours each academic year and six hours per term.
Progress toward college graduation also would have to come at a quicker pace. Current rules require four-year students to complete 25 percent of their credits each year, but the proposal would increase that to 40 percent after one year, 60 percent after the second year and 80 percent after the third year.
Indiana University President Myles Brand said he agreed with the reforms earlier this month when he was selected as the new NCAA president. Brand will succeed Cedric Dempsey in January.
Bates said the new requirements will help the NCAA reach its goal of achieving higher graduation rates for student-athletes, rather than just allowing athletes to maintain their eligibility.
"For the first time ever, we are addressing in one legislative package the entire academic experience of student-athletes, from high school performance through college graduation," Bates said.
The council also gave initial

approval to new rules for football practices.
The proposals would require a strength or conditioning coach certified in CPR to attend voluntary weight training or summer conditioning drills.
It also would allow prospects who have signed, but have not yet started taking classes, to participate in summer conditioning following a medical examination.
Those changes came after the deaths of Eraste Autin, an incoming freshman at Florida, and Rashidi Wheeler, a Northwestern player, who died during voluntary workouts in the summer of 2001.
Preseason drills also would be affected. Teams can practice only once a day on the first five days of fall practice. Players could wear only helmets the first two days, helmets and shoulder pads the next two days and full pads the fifth day.
Two-a-days would not be permitted on consecutive days.

Students protest for peace
Cooler weather doesn't deter students, staff from spreading message
By Lindsey Hodel
lhodel@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Anti-war sentimentals raft out on Wescoe Beach yesterday afternoon at a protest against potential war with Iraq.
Despite cold, rainy weather, about 50 students, faculty and community members gathered and chanted messages like "No blood for oil," "Drop Bush not bombs," and "That is what hypocrisy looks like."
The demonstrators were protesting the recent actions by Congress that may have moved the country closer to war. On Oct. 10, Congress voted to pass a resolution giving President George W. Bush power to use American military force to remove weapons of mass destruction from Saddam Hussein's possession.
Concerned Active and Aware Students, a student group on campus, organized the rally to increase student awareness about the United States' involvement with the Middle East, Amanda Flott, codirector of the group, said.
"We are bringing awareness to the horrible things we are doing in the Middle East," the Omaha junior said. "We shouldn't be invading another country and trying to impose our values on them."
But some students at the rally did not share those views, shouting comebacks like "Bomb Iraq" as they passed the rally. Theo Furrow, Wichita sophomore, stood back and watched the rally while waiting for class.
"I think they are wasting their time," he said. "Nothing is going to be changed by a little rally on campus, but if it makes them feel better, more power to them."
Furrow also said he felt the war with Iraq was inevitable.
"Something needs to be done in the Middle East," he said. "War is most likely going to happen."
Despite detractors, student protesters addressed the crowd with demands for peace.
Anne Iverson, Le Mars, Iowa, freshman, talked to the crowd about the possibility of losing family, friends and fellow KU students who would have to fight in Iraq.
"The government is creating emotional appeals, using Sept. 11 to create fear and get people to support the war, so I decided to make my own appeal against military action," she said.
"That time they came back but now there aren't any guarantees because this could turn into a full-blowen war," she said.
Iverson said she remembered when several family friends fought in the Gulf War in 1991.
One problem right now is that students are not educated about the U.S. s students, Sean Ringey, Clearwater, junior, said. He said he thought the goals of the U.S. were geared more toward getting cheap oil than preventing terrorism.
"Students don't understand what is
going on, so they ignore it and don't care," he said. "It's a vicious circle."
Ringey said he hoped the protest would inspire students to become involved and express their opinions about military action in Iraq.
Yesterday's peace rally coincided with nationwide movements. Specifically, Flott is organizing a trip for KU students to Washington, D.C., to attend a national protest against a potential war in the Middle East.
"KU needs to join other universities whose voices are being heard," she said. "It's important that our campus be involved in the national movement."
Robbery ends in crash, arrest on campus
By Michelle Burhenn

Kansan staff writer
Despite his grandparents' worries, Alan McFann began working as a convenience store clerk less than two weeks ago.
The Great Bend sophomore said he had not been worried about a robbery while working. But, as a man pointed a gun at him early yesterday morning and demanded money, he was scared for a few seconds.
"When I took this job, I figured if something like this would happen it would happen," he said. "There would
be nothing I could do about it."
Eldon Brown, 27, of Lawrence, was arrested on campus early this morning after he robbed the 20-year-old KU student at gunpoint at a convenience store, Sgt. Mike Pattrick of the Lawrence Police Department said.
Brown is being held on a $25,000 bond in Douglas County Jail on charges of aggravated robbery, fleeing and attempting to elude a law enforcement officer, reckless driving and driving without proof of insurance. Douglas County District Court Judge Peggy Kittel set his preliminary hearing for Tuesday.
McFann said a man entered the Kwik Shop at 3440 W. Sixth St. just before 3
"I kind of expected something like this to happen. It's just the kind of person I am. It was just my luck."

a. m. yesterday. He said the suspect pulled clothing over his face and took out a handgun. The suspect then ordered him to give him money from the store's cash register and robbed the student of his wallet, McFann said. Pattrick declined to divulge the amount of money
the suspect took, but McFann said there was no money in his wallet and little money in the cash register.
An officer responding to the area saw a man who matched the description provided by the student driving a car near Second Street and McDonald Drive. The driver then committed a traffic violation. When the police officer turned on his emergency lights, the driver took off at a high speed and a pursuit began, Pattrick said.
The pursuit continued until the driver lost control of his Toyota and hit a light pole north of Jayhawk Boulevard and Sunflower Road, Pattrick said. He then

Students can vote in election without going to the polls
Wes Wedman, Owasso, Okla., senior,
got an unexpected phone call last week:
a recording of President George W. Bush,
reminding him to sign up for an absentee
ballot and to vote for Republican candidates
in the Nov. 5 election.
By Aaron Passman
apassman@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
"It was kind of weird getting a call from the President, but I was glad I got reminded about absentee ballots." Wedman said.
Wedman is one of many KU students who received the President's phone message. Regardless of what political party students are affiliated with, many organizations on and off campus are trying to make sure students vote, even if they do not make it to the polls.
Kansas now refers to absentee ballots as advance voting ballots, and they are available to anyone wanting to vote in advance of the election.
Patty Jaimes, Douglas County Clerk said that students needed to fill out an application for an advance voting ballot and mail it in to the County Clerk's office before the ballot could be mailed out. The County Clerk's office must receive all advance voting ballots by Nov. 5
Jaimes said she did not know specifically how many students had requested advance ballots this year, but she expected a larger number of students to vote by advance ballot than in the past because so many student organizations had been on campus encouraging students to vote.
Mark Goode, vice president of KU Young Democrats, said his group had worked with the Douglas County Democrats to push registration and advance voting ballots to students. One of their goals, Goode said, was to register 500 to 600 KU students and offer them advance ballots.
Josh Steward, events coordinator for KU College Republicans, said his group had worked with the Student Legislative Awareness Board to register students to vote.
"Just being able to vote is extraordinarily important," said Steward, Hays sophomore. "So if you can't be here to vote on Election Day, it's great that the system accommodates us like that."
Students can get applications for advance voting ballots from the County Clerk's office or download them from www.absenteeballot.net/Kansas.htm.
Student Senate doles millions of dollars

Students may not realize that one of the Student Senate's responsibilities is channeling millions of dollars to University organizations and student groups.
Of the 10 Big 12 conference student governments that entrust money-distributing responsibilities to their student government, KU's Senate has the second largest budget.
Each year, KU's 80-member Senate has the responsibility of allocating approximately $14 million to University organizations and student groups. The money comes from each semester's student fee of $281.00.
Student Body President Jonathan Ng said Senate managed $2 million of that sum in distributing money directly to student groups and internal costs, and $12 million in the approval of the budgets of Watkins Memorial Health Center.
Money in the Big 12
Colorado: $27 million
Kansas: $14 million
Nebraska: $13 million
K-State: $9 million
Texas Tech: $5 million
Iowa State: $1.5 million
Oklahoma: $520,000
Texas: $513,000
Oklahoma State: $130,000
Baylor: $42,000
Texas A&M: Independent board
Missouri: Independent board
Ng said the responsibility of allocating this money spoke well of Senate's credibility.
This responsibility of approving the budgets of the university health centers, recreational centers and student unions is the reason KU and the University of Colorado boast large budgets. Colorado leads the Big 12 in the amount of money it distributes, allocating nearly $27 million to different university entities.
Robinson Center, and the unions.
"It adds legitimacy to our Student Senate and the student representation in any University issue," Ng said. "It fits in line with money talks."
Richard Johnson, dean of student life said Senate was given a high level of decision making because it was funding student services, organizations and activities.
The Kansas State University Student Governing Association has the same responsibilities in budget approval and allocation as KU, but controls $9 million. The University of Nebraska allocates approximately $13 million a year.
The Student Government Association at Texas Tech University has a board that oversees the allocation of nearly $5 million. But the Board of Regents has the final say in the board's decisions. Jon Mark Bernal, external chief of staff with the student government, said having
Student governments pay officers in myriad of ways

cnothwehr@kansan.com

Working as the official voice of the student body brings more benefits the just prestige. At the University of Kansas and universities throughout the country, most student government officials receive compensation for their work. But, most of those same officials agree that the compensation is not enough.
Student body president Jonathan Ng receives, after taxes, approximately $480 per month. In addition to a salary, both Ng and vice president Loren Malone receive gold parking passes, worth $180. Malone, as an outof-state executive member of Student
Senate, receives in-state tuition.
But Ng said he didn't seek his position for its monetary benefits.
"The main point is, regardless of pay, perks and benefits, you should do this job because you want to do it," Ng said. "I consider my paycheck as an extra."
Throughout the Big 12 Conference, universities have different ways of compensating their student leaders.
At Iowa State University, the student body president, vice president and finance director receive free tuition as well as free room and board. These benefits are paid for through the student government budget, collected from the student fee.

Group to plan protest of military training site
The KU Latin American Solidarity group will host an organizational meeting and film showing for its
School of the Americas protest trip tonight at 7:00 at Ecumenical Christian Ministries, 1204 Oread St. The School of the Americas, also known as the Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation, is a U.S. military-training institution in Fort Benning, Ga. The institution provides instruction in Spanish to Latin American and U.S. military personnel, and to Latin American civilians and police forces.
Amanda Cott of the KU Latin American Solidarity group said she was protesting the School of the Americas because it had a long history of training soldiers to terrorize, torture and massacre while using American tax dollars for funding.
"I feel it's important for us to go protest and let our message be heard," Cott said, "that it's not OK for our government to do this in our name."

The group will leave for Georgia Nov. 15 and return Nov. 17 after the protest. Students interested in joining the protest trip should attend the meeting tonight, as well as mandatory non-violence training at ECM on Nov. 10. For more information, contact Amanda Cott at acott@ku.edu or 856-5310.

Sniper's message affects Washington-area schools
KENSINGTON, Md. — Worried parents sent their children off to school with extra-tight hugs yesterday, defying the sniper's warning that children were not safe "anywhere, at any time." Thousands also kept their kids at home.
Investigators waited three days to reveal the threat against children, which was contained in a letter found after a shooting Saturday in Ashland. Va.
Authorities briefly shut down an interstate northwest of Washington after a report that men in a white truck had pointed a gun at a school bus. Police said they could not confirm whether the driver had seen a gun.
Meanwhile, schools across the region reported below-average attendance yesterday.

Students opt to live in mobile homes to save money
By Matt Stumpff
mstumpff@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Overlooking the stigma attached to mobile home communities proved to be a good move for one KU student.
Michael McAlhaney. Lawrence junior, has lived in a mobile home since he started attending the University of Kansas five years ago. McAlhaney is a resident of Gaslight Village, 1900 W. 31st St., one of Lawrence's four mobile home parks. He said the most frustrating thing about living in a mobile home community was the stigma attached to it.
"I understand there are stereotypes and there are some white-trash people," McAlhaney said. "Like, there's a lot of people here with yard art."
Iowa, this fall. Among the decorations is a pink flamingo.
Take Anthony Sump, for example. Sump, Wayne, Neb., sophomore, said the yard art in front of his mobile home was more of a joke than serious decoration. Sump moved into his home at Easy Living mobile homes, 3323
"My sister gave that to us," Sump said. "She kinda gave it to us as a house warming gift."
Sump and his two roommates also have a plastic sunflower on display in their yard.
"It's one of those sunflowers that spins," Sump said. "We're actually getting a little collection."
"We just got a thing in the mail," Sump said. "It basically said 'If you don't mow your lawn, we will mow it for you for $50.'"
But Sump said being a mobile home resident didn't mean he could get away with being irresponsible with his yard.
Sump said his friends made jokes based on the stereotypes of mobile home communities. But, he said the stereotypes went out the window when they saw how nice his home was.
"It's brand new and it's bigger than most people's places," Sump said. "It's like having our own house."
Don Caillouet is a sales associate for Kaw Valley Homes, 1330 N.3rd St., a mobile home dealership. He said students usually didn't inquire about the homes.
Michael McAlhaney, Lawrence junior, lives at Gaslight Village on 31st Street. McAlhaney has lived in a mobile home for five years while attending the University of Kansas and said that, despite the stigma attached to mobile home communities, it had been a good living option for him.
Sump said he planned on staying for the remainder of his college career.
Brandon Baker/Kansan
Callhouet said students wanting to buy a mobile home could typically expect to spend about $750 a month for the payment and for park rent for a three-bedroom mobile home. He said homes were also available on a rental basis with prices between $500 and $700 a month.
PARKSIDE CITY VILLAGE
McAlhaney said living in an apartment would make it easier
For McAlhaney, the cost of buying a mobile home was a good deal. After paying the $1,500 down payment on his mobile home with money saved during high school, McAlhaney did not have to make any additional payments. He had roommates renting the home until this fall, which allowed him to pay off the remaining $7,000 for the home. Now that he lives alone, he said he paid about $350 a month for the plot and utilities for the 980-square-foot, three-bedroom home.
to meet people, but the cost of the mobile home ended up being as much as he would have paid for some apartments, and his home was bigger.
But, McAlhaney said his future plans didn't include living in a mobile home.
"I don't plan on staying here my whole life, probably just for a
couple of more years" McAlhaney said. "Then I'm going to sell it and get out of Lawrence."

Lecturer discusses plight of Native Americans
Zach Straus/Kansan
By Katie Nelson
Native American poet Carter Revard speaks in the Pine Room of the Kansas Union. Revard's presentation yesterday was a mixture of his writing and his opinions.
knelson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Hummingbirds, Carter Reward said, are an example to be followed.
"What kind of dinosaurs survived?" he asked, musing to himself. "The small ones. Not the carnivores who tore each other apart."
Reward, a 71-year-old Native-American poet, essayist and theologian, made a stop at the Kansas Union yesterday to give a lecture on nation survival. It was a political science, history, philosophy and poetry class all in
one. About 75 people attended.
According to Revard, hummingbirds evolved from small dinosaurs. They developed wings and mastered the art of survival by taking only what is meant to be taken, he said in a poem he wrote called Dancing with Dinosaurs.
People, especially Native Americans, should learn from the hummingbirds' example Revard said. Native-American communities should harness natural sources-the sun, wind and water, and use it for power.
The lecture showed Nick Sterner, Shawnee freshman, new perspectives. Sterner attended the lecture for his Understanding
America course. He was surprised, he said, at how much he learned.
"It was humbling, really," Sterner said. "It just goes to show that the powerful aren't always the ones that survive. It's the little ones like the smart hummingbirds who do."
Rather hard of hearing, Reward cupped his hand over his ear as he answered audience questions about the survival of Native Americans today.
The metaphors he weaved were the most impressive part, Ann Schofield, professor of American Studies, said.
"His references to the hummingbird were evocative of thenat
ural, lyrical way things really are," she said. "It was just beautiful."
Reward was born on a Osage reservation in Pawhuska, Okla. He got into the University of Tulsa through a radio quiz show and won a Rhodes scholarship. Reward went on to earn a master's degree from Yale in 1959 and taught at Washington University in St. Louis. He's now retired from teaching and lectures and writes in his spare time.
It's been five years since Revard last came to KU. Coming back was a pleasure because of the friends he had here, he said.
One such friend is Tony Clark an assistant professor of American Studies who coordinated the lecture for The Hall Center for the Humanities.
The two met through a Native American Internet discussion board. Through their talks there, Clark came to regard Revard as an academic hero, he said.
"Most student have probably never even heard or thought of these notions," Clark said. "The idea that Native people don't look like something in a Hollywood Western, or Native people as intellectuals, that's what I wanted to introduce to students here tonight."

Library needs to give laptops better advertising
The University of Kansas is the proud new owner of 40 laptops, but because of a flawed advertising campaign few students know it.
Since the beginning of the school year, Watson, Spencer and Anschutz libraries have offered laptops for in-house rental to students.
Funded by private donations from the KU Parents Initiative, this innovative laptop rental program was created to help make the lives of those with no personal computer a bit easier.
The problem is many students don't know this service exists. Though there has been publicity for this new program, it has been restricted to the libraries.
Sarah Couch, director of access services for Watson Library, said the laptop program committee has promoted the program by posting printed signs and hanging banners in the library. The committee has also put notice of the program on the library's Web site.
The reality is the student body does not frequently congregate at the library.
However, students do not know about the program because the advertisements are not where the students are.
frequently engages it
It is only the occasional student who joyfully skips off to a weekend in the stacks. The same is true with the library Web site; unless one is quite cozy with the
site, it is easy to pass over the notice of the program.
Granted, thinking up ways to advertise is easier than financing them.
This is too generous of a gift to rely on library banners and word of mouth for publicity.
The money to advertise this program would have to come from an already tight library budget.
The University needs to loosen its vice grip on the purse strings and get the word out to the student body. Many methods of advertising are expensive,but a handful of them are not.
Putting up flyers around the campus is an effective and relatively cheap practice that almost never fails to grab a college student's attention.
Another cost effective strategy would be to put a colorful banner up extolling the merits of this program on the University Web site.
Perhaps just moving the posters from the libraries to the Kansas Union would increase participation in this program.
Given that tuition and fees have risen rapidly in the last few years, the University should allocate some funds to make this program known to the students who can benefit from it.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Give donors praise,respect
This is in response to the Oct. 16 Face-off ("Should scholarships be only merit based?").
First and foremost, I would like to clarify all of the "rumors" and discussion on the KU First Scholarships.
The decision on how the scholarships were awarded were made by INTRUST and the Endowment Association.
How do I know this? Because Dick and Jeanne Tinberg are my uncle and aunt who have made very charitable donations to this university in the past and present.
If there are issues, suggestions and criticism about the way the scholarships were handled, they should be directed at INTRUST and the Endowment, instead of the donors who truly believe academic support to students is first priority of any university.
Dick and Jeanne Tinberg believed they were helping students with their academic pursuits especially during times when college costs have risen and students' pockets are empty.
I am certain those students who benefited truly appreciate the generosity of Mr. and Mrs. Tinberg and hope that the dissension around how the scholarships were awarded will not hinder other alumni from offering scholarships to students or donations to University activities. $25,000 is nothing to sneeze at.
I did not attend the game or receive an award.
Instead of saying, "poor me, I was at the library studying on that day." I am saying, "good for you" to those students who were lucky enough to have received some financial assistance.
For all students on campus, let's just hope that donors are not mislead or maligned in doing something they truly feel is important; helping students pursuing their academic dreams.
There should be a public apology made to the Tinbergs for misrepresenting their generous donation.
Joan Houghton Doctoral Student in Special Education
Israel guilty of ignoring U.N.
In her column on Oct. 8 ("Bush's threats of force to Iraq justified by international law"), Audrey Snyder asserted that war against Iraq is justified because Iraq has been violating United Nations Security Council resolutions for several years.
If upholding international law is truly the driving force behind the upcoming war, then there are a few other countries we should consider attacking first.
In his address to the UN on September 12, President Bush declared that Iraq "would be able to build a nuclear weapon within a year" if it could acquire enough plutonium.
This is precisely why we should be concerned that Israel - which had more than 200 nuclear warheads back in 1994 - is the world's sixth largest nuclear power.
While we have been imposing economic sanctions against Iraq to encourage it to comply with UN resolutions, the United States has been giving one third of its entire foreign aid to Israel, even though the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty bans military assistance to any country that has not signed it.
While Iraq has been dodging international weapons inspectors, Israel has been beyond the reach of inspectors because it refused to sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty—an international treaty ratified by 187 countries including the U.S. and Iraq.
If we are truly concerned about enforcing international law and protecting peace, we must first stop supplying money and weapons to the country that has defied more UN resolutions than any other and which refuses to open its nuclear weapons stockpiles to international inspectors.
To do otherwise would mean we are violating international laws ourselves.
To do otherwise would be hypocritical.
To do otherwise would clearly show that President Bush isn't telling us his true motives for invading Iraq.

Voting campaigns educate, but can't control,the voters
PERSPECTIVES
Be sure of one thing. No one in the Student Legislative Awareness Board has ever said that who you vote for does not matter.
GUEST COMMENTARY
We submitted statements this week to the opinion editor that we feel were taken out of context, and we believe were used as nothing more than filler in a column that was lacking.
GOLEY COMMENTARY
To set the record straight, voting is an incredibly important decision, not an arbitrary choice. Nonetheless, it is an individual's decision to make on his or her own, and the opinions of columnists have no bearing upon that decision.
SLAB is putting all of its force behind a campaign to get every KU student to the polls. But we are also working to ensure that every KU student has information about candidates, polling locations and so on. That can all be found on SLAB's Web site. www.ku.edu/~slab.
It is easy to pick one aspect of this voting campaign and apply unsubstantiated criticism to it.
What is not easy, and what takes hours of work from dedicated students, is to register 3,428 new student voters in Douglas County. Moreover, it takes many hours of work to record this information in order to provide outreach and information to new voters, information they will use when standing in the polling booth.
johanna Maska and Jeff Allmon opinion@kansan.com
pushing students to vote, only for voting sake, is just closing their eyes to the truth.
People who would say that SLAB is
Students know what is important to them. They will be the ones to decide upon what issues will sway their vote one way or another.
We can encourage students, we can urge them, we can plead with them to become informed; but that is all. Beyond that, it is their choice to make up the criteria upon which they choose a candidate.
As we said before, if they want to base a decision upon a candidate's stance on education, that is their choice. Even if they want to base a decision upon the appearance of a candidate, that too is their choice; and there is absolutely nothing that can be said about the validity or value of that vote versus another.
Ultimately, most people who do make the effort to vote are informed about their choices. The instances when a person makes utterly random decisions in the
polling booth is so rare as to not pose any threat to democracy.
Moreover, efforts by anyone to curb this phenomenon could only be equated to the literacy tests used in the post civil war south.
Who should be the one to deem others educated about their vote? The President? Our Governor? Joe Pull, Kansan columnist? We surely hope not.
Sure, we all have individual tales about people voting on the basis of hair color, or criteria that we simply disagree with.
Individual value judgments are made in the polling booth in regard to individual choices, but individual preferences have absolutely no normative credence when applied to the individual choices of other people; especially those that take place when voting.
However, both concerns have the same irrelevant weight.
We as the Student Legislative Awareness Board wouldn't have it any other way.
The beauty of America is that we all do have the choice to vote by whatever means we see fit.
Allmon is a Wichita senior in philosophy. Maska is a Galesburg, Ill., junior in journal-sim. They are the directors of the Student Legislative Awareness Board.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN = 5A
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Letter made threat to rights
Mr. John Schneiderwind states in his Oct. 10 letter (Anti-War Sentiments Unwelcome) that it would be "un-American" for anyone to protest military action in Iraq "when, and if, this war does take place." I remind Mr. Schneiderwind that Amendment I to the Constitution of the United States of America states; "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances."
There is nothing "un-American" about any citizen at any time peaceably assembling and petitioning the government if they feel aggrieved. In fact, our country was founded upon that right.
Paul Atchley Assistant Professor of Psychology
Bainum causes controversy
Finally, Meghan Bainum has unlocked the secrets of the female genitalia for me. Considering that I'm class of '84, this may seem somewhat pitiful. But back when I went to William Allen White School of Journalism, vaginas were not permitted in the Kansan.
I've talked to a few of my friends who also graduated back before vulvaagraphs were a journalistic staple, and they have had pretty much the same reaction: "Kids today."
I, too, must confess a little embarrassment as Meghan told me what I should have been rubbing all these years.But then it hit me, what a sad commentary on The Hill your Meghan provides.When I was in school, there would have been no audience for such a treatise. Back then any underclassman inclined toward the vulva pretty much had a full color version of one floating around in his or her head 24-7! No vulva-graphs required.
Don Henry
Class of 1984
It makes me proud to know that the national media has finally reported on Meghan Bainum's sex column. After all, what could be better for the University's reputation then for the whole world to know that our student newspaper publishes a column which advocates the use of anal beads, using sex as a tool for vengeance, and, of course, sadism and masochism?
Furthermore, I enjoy being forced to subsidize (through the Lawrence campus fee) a paper which is of such exceptional quality that high school principals have requested the Thursday edition not be sent to their schools lest some unsuspecting 14-year-old child try Miss Bainum's advice and end up in a hospital.
I'm sure the sex column has helped University recruiting and enrollment and if the state legislators read it, how can they not increase KU's funding?
Of course, when I apply for jobs after graduation I'll be favored over applicants from other schools who aren't so open to "discussions of sexuality."
But all of these benefits are just window dressing. All that's important is that Meghan and the Kansan editors feel free to print anything they want.
Atter all, how could we live with ourselves if we asked newspapers to practice a bit of self-restraint?

Don't dismiss football money
money
This is in response to the Oct. 8 column "Football Program Doesn't Bring Home Bacon for Other Sports". Would you say that to estimate the impact of eliminating the football program you should use a normalized annual revenue number rather than a down year?
Also — and I know this wasn't the intent of your article - the impact of football on recruiting for other sports is pretty great.
Take it from somebody who transferred to KU in part because my university dropped its football program while I was there.
Jeffrey Todd Class of 1990
Ann Cudd and Joshua Rosenbloom who wrote the Oct. 8 column "Football Program Doesn't Bring Home the Bacon for Other Sports" need to consider how much cash the Women's Studies and Economics departments cost. How are these departments covering their costs? Only with a hefty subsidy from the taxpayers I am certain
I guess Ann and Joshua are willing to try to gore the football ox but fearful of injury to their own ox being subjected to the same scrutiny.
NASCAR is not a real sport
Chris Condren Class of 1973
I was sad to see the Kansan proclaim, "Students Say Yes" to the question, "Is NASCAR a Sport?" (Sports Poll, Oct. 8)
I am willing to wager my KU education that few students here would actually say, "Yes." Perhaps those KU students who are caught up in the Southern soap-opera — that is, NASCAR — will tell you that racing in some sort of vehicle is a sport and that its participants are athletes. This is where the distinction is made.
Car racing has gobs of fans, and, as a business, it functions similar to how baseball and American football function. Because of this, it is treated like a sport so that people richer than us can make lots more money.
The national spelling bee and hunting are broadcast on sports networks, too. Are their participants athletes? The answer is no. Sports are played by men and women who perform activities resulting in the physical exertion and motion of their bodies.
really unhealthy and still perform the given activity well, than it can't be called a real sport.
If you can be really fat, really old,
So call it a competition, an activity or even a game, but it does not merit being called a sport.
State smoking tax is unfair
Alan Boyd Great Bend junior
I am a recent alumnus of KU and former Kansan staffer. I read the (Oct. 14) article on smoking tax ("Tax doesn't deter smokers") and I wanted to make a couple other points.
An analogy drawn between the gasoline excise tax and that on tobacco shows some discrepancies. Gasoline tax goes almost solely to road maintenance. This makes sense — those who buy gas obviously drive. So, road users are paying a little more of their incomes to road maintenance. And the humanitarian argument is decreased fuel consumption creating a cleaner environment.
When one attempts to compare this to the cigarette tax, the difference is glaring — the destination of the money.
It is not specified for state medical care of smokers or youth smoking prevention. It goes into the general fund. That means a smoker pays proportionally more for education, law enforcement, road maintenance, etc., simply because she chooses to smoke.
If the government frowns upon smoking, it should seek just means of regulation.
Yes, this tax cuts down the numbers of people who smoke, but it does not do it fairly.
The fact that smoking is unhealthy and unattractive does not contribute to the support for a smoking tax. Numerous activities — such as driving, eating poorly and wearing cheap shoes endanger the health of American citizens. We do not tax those activities more than others.
The second-hand smoke argument does not contribute either. The cigarette tax is only indirectly targeted at
that hazard. If second-hand smoke is the concern, make it illegal to smoke in any public place.
Clearly the cigarette tax is a savvy political move to capitalize on a unique situation.
No powerful entities are going to make a case for smokers — because to argue against the tax seems to be arguing for smoking. Of course, they are two separate arguments.
separate argument. Lawmakers looking for quick cash continue to take advantage of this paradigm. They should stop.

Ignore anti-war rhetoric
Intelligent students will see through the rhetoric Amanda Flott presented in her Oct. 4 article, "Now is the time to speak up against war of contradictions."
Corporations oppose sanctions in Iraq and they oppose war. War is not good for their bottom line. They may morally support it, but not for profits.
If you are against war, that is fine. There are legitimate concerns about threatening to use force against Iraq.
But threat of force can also bring peace.
Also, what personal freedoms have been limited? Name them. I have not seen any of my freedoms limited. What intellectual freedoms have been limited? Name them. Someone criticizing your educated statements is not limiting your intellectual freedoms. You are free to write what you want. I am free to criticize it.
If you want to attack a president and his administration, maybe you should study the one that just left office and their response to Iraq. Talk, congressional resolutions, very little action.
We have talked for years. The threat of force may bring peace with no force.

Young singer strives for stardom
By Vonna Koemanyvong
vkeomanyvong@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
For Megan McCluney, counting numbers is not all she wants to do in life. The Bonner Springs freshman wants to be a diva.
McCluney, an accounting major, said she hoped to one day become a professional singer like Whitney Houston.
"I want to watch BET or MTV and see my video," McCluney said. "I love singing more than anything and I want people to hear my voice."
McCluney has been singing since she was seven years old. She sang in her church choir, school choir and had been in several musicals. McCluney was part of a Lawrence jazz group called Hot Sauce that played gigs at the Jazzhaus, 926 Massachusetts St., and at University functions like Day on the Beach. She is also a member of the gospel choir Inspirational Gospel Voices.
Gabe Roland, assistant director for
Inspirational Gospel Voices and a former member of Hot Sauce, said McCluney had a beautiful voice.
"When she sings, it's hard to believe that sound is coming out of her because she is such a small person," the Kansas City, Kan. senior said. "Her voice is spectacular."
When she was in high school, McCluney lent her voice to three tracks on her cousin R.E.S.' rap CD titled Illusions. The CD was released three months ago.
"When I heard my voice for the first time, I just thought 'Wow, this is such a big step,' " McCluney said.
Although singing on the CD helped boost her self-esteem, McCluney said she wanted to do more to get her career going. Before graduating from high school, McCluney created a demo CD. The CD features four songs including two songs called "Thank You" and "Papa Used to Tell Me" that she wrote.
But McCluney said she did not send the demo to record companies because she wanted to perfect it.
Steve Ozark, the owner of Ozark Talent, a music talent agency at 718 Schwarz Road, said that perfecting the demo was a good idea. Ozark, who has been in the music business for 14 years, said a good demo would help record labels notice her
"The music business is tough." Ozark said. "It's always been that way and people should not expect that things are going to take off right away."
Some students musicians, like Matthew Morgus. St. Louis junior, find the transition to professional music relatively easy.
The band has already released a selftitled CD and has appeared on the Vans Warped Tour.
Morgus, bassist for the band Salt the Earth, said it took the band about five months before signing a record deal. The band had been together for more than a year.
Zach Straus/Kansan
Although many have told her that the road to stardom would be hard,
"I base our success mostly on luck," Morgus said. "We just happened to meet the right people at the right time."
Megan McCluney, Bonner Springs freshman, has been singing since she was seven years old. She was recently featured on her cousin R.E.S.' album "Illusions," and is a member of KU's Inspirational Gospel Voices choir. McCluney loves the spotlight and hopes to someday make a career out of her vocal talents.
McCluney said she still wanted to try. Many have also told her that she has a good voice.
"I'm not walking in this with a blindfold on," McCluney said. "I know that it's good
hard but you have to believe in your dreams. I think someday it's going to happen."

Activists remember Lawrence in the 1960s
Former students discuss turbulence of years at KU
By George Schulz
gschulz@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Dressed in modern blazers slung over tie-dyed T-shirts, former University of Kansas student activists gathered last night to discuss the history of Lawrence during the tumultuous 1960s.
The discussion, composed of a panel of four speakers and a moderator, was at the Watkins Community Museum of History.
1047 Massachusetts St. It was sponsored by the Hall Center for the Humanities. About 70 people turned out for the event.
Panelists Tim Miller, Bob Shelton, Roger Martin and Mike Elwell discussed racial tensions and violence, civil rights and anti-war demonstrations in the context of Lawrence's history of student activism.
Steve Jansen of the Watkins Museum introduced the discussion. He said Lawrence's evolution since the 1960s was exemplified by protest songs used for anti-war demonstrations, songs which are now used as jingles in corporate advertisements.
"What was once used to resist the establishment is now used to

promote the establishment," lansen said.
Not all panelists spent their time talking about changes that had occurred in Lawrence since the 1960s.
Martin, a 1967 English graduate and editor of a book recounting the oral history of Lawrence hippies,
said although early student activists had helped advance civil rights for women and African-Americans, the conservatism some students opposed thrived today.
He said his memory of Lawrence in the 1960s was fragmented by formidable experiences that had shaped the era.
"My 1960s is a series of stained impressions," he said.
Miller, professor of religious studies, said America had harbored counterreutile youth movements throughout history but the invasion of LSD, the birth-control pill and the Vietnam War had changed the scope of the 1960s generation.
"This was a kaleidoscope of a time." he said.
Miller added that Lawrence wasn't any different than the rest of the country during the 1960s - it was just another college town with students adding to what was going on at the time.
Shelton, associate professor of religious studies, said he remembered anti-war demonstrators clashing with the Kansas highway patrol and the National Guard. As a student, he was one of three who helped establish the African-American Studies program at KU. He said he was inspired by a speech given by civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. at the University of Washington.
Current KU students were among those attending the event.
Adrian Zink, Larned junior, said
an interest in Lawrence history had drawn him to the panel discussion
"I always thought the '60s counterculture movement was interesting," he said.
Zink said his father, a former KU student, had been on campus the night the Kansas Union was burned by radical student activists.
Michael Stoecker, Jetmore senior, said the political issues that had made the 1960s a turbulent era did not exist today.
"Everyone in this community is more secure," he said. "Back in the '60s there was the draft and racial tensions. Today it's not really the case."
Drill provides preparation for Watkins staff in emergencies
—Edited by Erin Ohm
By Lindsay Hanson
lhanson@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
The goal: to keep a terror attack on campus from frightening the staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center.
Securing doors and wielding walkie-talkies, 80 to 90 staffers acted out the first draft of an emergency and terrorism response plan that has been in the works since last September's attacks.
The drill, which the staff completed in about 50 minutes.
treated 16 volunteer student and staff "victims" who feigned minor injuries from a mass casualty attack scenario on campus. At 8 a.m. yesterday morning, two makeshift security guards held the "victims" outside while two nurses assessed their injuries, which the staff randomly assigned to them earlier. The most severe cases were admitted first.
Myra Strother, chief of medical staff at Watkins, said large crowds of victims would have to be corralled outside the building first to assure efficient service inside.
Strother said this year's draft of the plan was similar to the University's original response plan, but it also provided for a domestic terror attack and accounted for a new decontamination unit and shower to be set up outside the building.
John Mullers, assistant director of security and emergency planning at the KU Public Safety Office, stood by to observe the drill. He said the run wasn't as smooth as it should be for a real emergency. He pointed to a wheelchair being escorted to the delayed care station.
"It's fine to take people in a wheelchair, but if the escort doesn't bring it back, it becomes a problem," he said. "There's a lot of wrinkles that get ironed out in the drills."
Strother said the center could juggle only a limited number of patients at a time. If a residence hall were to collapse, Watkins could accept most victims not in need of surgery — Watkins staff cannot perform surgery. In an authentic emergency situation, Strother said people at Watkins would communicate with workers at the scene of the disaster and
the staff at Lawrence Memorial Hospital.
Watkins has the advantage of having physicians with emergency experience: William Brandenberg, who is board certified in emergency medicine and Cheryl Hickert, a nurse practitioner who worked with the military in Afghanistan and Desert Storm.
Brandenberg said the staff would make adjustments to the draft and re-run the drill later in the semester.
"I think it went fairly well," he said. "You know, we've learned from this, and that was part of the
reason for doing it."
One of the student "victims" found the drill more relaxing than he thought a real disaster scenario would be. Cody Vitt, Erie freshman, said he had to ride in a wheelchair. Vitt, who works for the Watkins physical therapy department, had been assigned second-degree burns on his arms and face.
"It was nice being able to sit around and do nothing," he said. "As far as I could tell, everything went well."

Election bill proposals fail
] 8
By Caleh Nothwehr
cnothwehr@kansan.com
kanstha staff writer
Two bills that would radically change the way student senators are elected failed in last night's Senate committee meetings.
The first bill was an amendment that would re-apportion the way Senate seats are distributed. In the proposed plan, two-thirds of the seats would be allotted toward schools and one-third would account for living organizations. A second part of the plan would total the number of votes received by individuals and reward seats to the corresponding coalitions. Federico Ferrara, sponsor of the bill and Venice, Italy doctoral student, said the current election procedure needed to be changed.
"The system currently in place is the most disproportionate system known to human kind," Ferrara said.
Ferrara said the proposed plan would benefit Senate and the student body because the number of candidates who received seats would be more proportionate to the number of votes received.
"There is always resistance to change," he said.
Johanna Maska, Nunemaker senator and Galesburg, III. junior, voted against the proposed plan because she said it focused too heavily on voting for coalitions rather than individuals.
But Ferrara wasn't surprised the amendment didn't pass.
"It puts a coalition before a person," Maska said. She said students should focus more on voting for individuals because
coalitions, unlike political parties, didn't associate with a certain ideology.
For the second time this year, the University Affairs committee failed a bill that would implement online voting in Senate elections.
This time, Kit Brauer, holdover senator and Denver junior, proposed an internal system that would be ready by this April's elections.
Brauer said the internal system would completely restructure Senate by allowing more students to vote. He said he was planning to turn the issue into an initiative where it would be voted on in the spring election.
Samantha Mangino, journalism senator and Manhattan junior, voted against the bill because she said the effort had been rushed and needed more time to be researched.
In other news:
The Finance committee approved $15,351 in funding for student groups who made presentations. Kyle Johnson, finance chair and Wichita junior, said the large amount of money did not worry him because $51,632 was still left to be allocated with two-thirds of the year's meeting still remaining.
Drew Thomas, off-campus senator and Hays senior, said the funding passed because the groups who presented were well-prepared.
"These were strong groups with solid events." Thomas said.
Groups who received funding included: NAACP, Black Student Union, KU Chorale and Academy of Students of Pharmacy.

Hundreds held as hostages by rebels in Moscow theater
The Associated Press
MOSCOW - At least 40 armed Chechen rebels stormed a crowded theater and took hundreds of people hostage in the midst of a musical, threatening early today to shoot their captives and blow up the building if Russian security forces attacked.
Several hours after the rebels rushed the theater, firing automatic weapons, they began communicating with Russian officials by cell phone. The hostage-takers demanded that Russia end the war in Chechnya, a southern region where the army is fighting Islamic separatists.
the theater in a working-class neighborhood of southeastern Moscow, about three miles from Red Square.
Some hostages released by the gunmen reported seeing pools of blood. But there was no confirmation of casualties at
The rebels had automatic weapons, grenades, belts with explosives attached, mines and canisters of gasoline, lawmaker Yuli Rybakov said outside the theater. There was little water or food inside, he said. The raid occurred in damp weather.
The gunmen told national parliament member Aslanbek Aslakhanov from Chechnya, who was serving as a mediator, that they wanted Russian troops to withdraw from Chechnya and implement a cease-fire, he said. A pro-rebel Web site said Russia had seven days to begin its withdrawal or the theater would be blown up.
Hundreds of chemists assemble on campus for conference
By Louise Stauffer

Kansan staff writer
After two years of preparation, the 37th Midwest Regional Meeting of the American Chemical Society began last night. Up to 700 chemists were expected to attend the events which began at 7:00 p.m. at the Kansas Union Ballroom with poster presentations by graduate students.
In-depth display tables discussed topics such as solutions for protein analysis or described
the chemistry departments of visiting schools such as the University of Missouri-Rolla.
Questions such as, "Are we running the risk of developing a resistance to the antibiotic used to treat anthrax?" will be addressed in the events that will last until tomorrow. Bala Subramaniam, distinguished professor and chairman of chemical and petroleum engineering, will be among the scientists delivering presentations on the emerging field of environment-friendly green chemistry."
"The most important aspect of the meeting is being able to have people on the KU campus and see what goes on."
Robert Carlson General Chairman
"The most important aspect of the meeting is being able to have people on the KU campus and see what goes on," Robert Carlson, general chairman of the three-day
event and professor of chemistry said.
Laura Lucas, St. Joseph, Mo., graduate student, said the meeting was a good opportunity for chemists to talk in an informal setting.
The meeting is held on a different campus each year of the universities involved, and KU has not hosted the meeting since 1992. Students come from the seven state region that includes
"You can ask specific questions and get suggestions and ideas," she said.
Arkansas, Iowa, parts of Southern Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska and South Dakota.
The scientists and students involved are expected to make more than 330 presentations.
Amy Lillquist, Fayetteville, Ark., graduate student, said she would be giving a talk at one of the symposiums about her graduate research thesis on the investigation of pharmaceuticals in environmental water. She said she was looking forward to the society meetings.

"I like seeing others' research
Awards will be presented at the meeting, such as the first Midwest Regional Award for Contribution to Diversity that will be presented to Kristin Bowman-James, professor of chemistry. The award will establish the ACS Women Chemists Committee's 75th anniversary.

Priest forgoes resigning to help fix sex scandal damage
Edited by Adam Pracht and Christina Neff
Associated Press
ARLINGTON, Mass. — Cardinal Bernard Law said yesterday that he had considered resigning over the Roman Catholic church's sex abuse scandal, but felt it was his duty to stay on and help fix the damage.
Law, who came under intense criticism for allegedly failing to remove sexually abusive priests
since the scandal erupted in Boston in January, met yesterday with hundreds of Boston Archdiocese priests for the second day.
Law said in April following a meeting with Pope John Paul II that he had raised the possibility of resigning, but had come away determined to stay on and repair the damage to the archdiocese.
He had been asked to consider
resignation, said the Rev. Robert Bullock, the head of a priests group that has been critical of Law's leadership.
"He's here and that's a fact and thats what we've got to work with," said Bullock, who attended yesterday's meeting and came away feeling optimistic about "a kind of new relationship with" Law.
Law met behind closed doors
with about 400 priests at St. Camillus in Arlington. He met with about 300 priests in Medway on Tuesday; as they had Tuesday, the priests in Arlington brought up the question of due process for priests who face abuse allegations.
In other developments yesterday:
— In Arizona, a man who says he was rejected from the priest-
bood because he tried to turn in clergy who were sexually abusing minors sued the Diocese of Tucson. The employment discrimination lawsuit seeks unspecified damages. Dioceses officials could not be reached for comment.
— In Spokane, Wash., Bishop William Skylstad released the names of five priests in the Spokane Diocese accused of abusing children under guidelines established this June by U.S. bishops. All five had already been removed from ministry, in some cases as long ago as 1980.
A deceased priest accused of taking a boy to pornographic movies and molesting him was named in a new round of lawsuits yesterday against the Archdiocese of Louisville, Ky. The suit was one of nine filed yesterday; each seeks unspecified damages.

This product is intended to prevent pregnancy. It does not protect against HIV infection (AIDS) and other sexually transmitted diseases.
What is DEPO-PROVERA Contraceptive Injection?
DEPO-PROVERA (contraceptive) is an oral contraceptive that is given as an intravenous injection. It is in the bottom of the upper arm once every 12 weeks and continues your contraceptive protection until the next dose of DEPO-PROVERA, contains metronivergene acetate, a chemical similar to (but not the same as the natural hormone estrogen) by your course during its time of action. DEPO-PROVERA acts by preventing ovulation after first evening. If an egg is not released from the ovary, DEPO-PROVERA menstrual cycle, it cannot become pregnant. DEPO-PROVERA makes it less likely for pregnancy to occur.
What is DEPO-PROVERA Contraceptive Injection?
The following table shows the percent of women who get pregnant while using different kinds of contraceptive methods. It gives the lowest expected rate of pregnancy (the rate expected in women who use each method exactly as it would be used) and the typical rate of pregnancy (which includes women who become pregnant because they forget their own control or because their partners become pregnant).

How effective is DEPO-PROVERIA Contraceptive injection?
The effective dose of DEPO-PROVERIA contraceptive injection (see example) depends on following the effective dosage schedule exactly (see "How often do you get my shot" in DEPO-PROVERIA Contraceptive injection). The first 5 days of normal menstrual period, the first 1 week after breastfeeding and if exclusively breastfeed it must be given ONLY during the first 5 days of normal menstrual period. The first 1 week after breastfeeding it must be given ONLY during the first 5 days of normal menstrual period. It is administered at 3-month (13-week) intervals. DEPO-PROVERIA Contraceptive injection is over 99% effective with most contraceptive methods of birth control and use DEPO-PROVERIA. The effectiveness of most contraceptive methods depends in part on how regularly women use DEPO-PROVERIA. The effectiveness of most contraceptive methods depends in part on how regularly women use DEPO-PROVERIA.

What if I want to become pregnant after using DEPO-PROVERA Contraceptive
**injection?**
Because DEP-HOPROVA is a long-term birth control method, it takes some time after your last injection. Because it will wear off, based on the results from a large study done in the United States for women who stop using DEP-HOPROVA, it may take up to 10 months after their last injection of about half of those who become pregnant will do so in 10 months, or about two months after those who become pregnant will do so in 20 months, and then become those who become pregnant will do so in 30 months after their last injection. The length of time you use DEP-HOPROVA has no effect on how long you can use it.
DEPO-PROVERA has no effect on how long it acts.
What are the risks of using DEPO-PROVERA Contraceptive Inje
What are the risks of rising DEPO-PROVERA?
The side effect reported most frequently by women who use DEPO-PROVERA for breast cancer is a short-term decrease in the time required to be diagnosed by breast bleeding or no bleeding when DEPO-PROVERA is started. They may have one or more of the following side effects: unpredictable bleeding or spitting an increase in blood volume; not a useful effect of DEPO-PROVERA if she happens; you should see your health care provider right away. DEPO-PROVERA is not recommended in the periods completely without the knowledge of DEPO-PROVERA 55% of the women studied reported no menstrual bleeding (amenorrhea) after 1 year of use and DEPO-PROVERA 50% of the women studied reported no menstrual bleeding (amenorrhea) after 1 year of use. Your period stop is because DEPO-PROVERA is not recommended in state in your country. When your ovaries do not release an egg, the regular monthly growth of the time required to be diagnosed by breast bleeding is unpredictable. Indication does not take place. When you stop using DEPO-PROVERA your menstrual period will usually in time, return to normal in state in your country.
Use of DEPO PROVERA may be associated with a decrease in the amount of mineral stored in bone. It is essential to monitor your risk of development of bone fractures. The rate of bone mineral loss is greatest in the early state of DEPO PROVERA use, but after that, it begins to resemble the normal rate of age-related bone mineral loss.
cancer.
Studies of women who have used different forms of contraception found that women who used DEPO-PROVERA for contraception had no increased overall risk of developing cancer of the breast (38). However women under 35 years of age whose first exposure to DEPO-PROVERA was within the previous 4 to 15 years may have a higher risk of developing breast cancer similar to that seen with oral contraceptives. You should discuss this with your health-care provider.
injunction.
Some women using DIPD-PHXRAVCA Contraceptive Injection have reported severe and potentially life-threatening allergic reactions known as anaphylaxis and anaphylactic reactions. Symptoms include the sudden onset of hives or swelling and rushing of the skin, breathing difficulties, and a drop in blood pressure.
because DEPO-PROVERA is such an effective contraceptive method, the risk of accidental pregnancy for women with IUDs is regularly (every 3 months [13 weeks]) very low. While there is evidence that an increased risk of low birth weight and neonatal infant death is associated with problems in infarts conceived close to the time of injection, such problems uncommon, if you think you may have become pregnant while using DEPO-PROVERA for contraception, see your health-care provider as soon as possible.
**Kinder Risks**
Women who use hormone-based contraceptives may have an increased risk of blood clots or pregnancy that the fertilized egg will begin to develop.
What symptoms may signal problems while using DEPO-PROVERA Contraceptive Injection?
1. unusualness of all of these problems occur following an injection
*老人 risks*
Women who use hormone-based contraceptives may have an increased risk of blood clots or stroke in a compulsive method failure there is a possibility that the fertilized egg will begin outside of the uterus (etopic pregnancy) if these events are rare you should help your health-care provider take care of them.

Weight Gain You may experience a weight gain while you are using DEFGO-PROVERA. About two thirds of you may experience a DEFGO-PROVERA in clinical tests provided a weight gain of about 5 pounds during the first year of use. You may continue to experience a weight gain over a large study period, or approximately 4 pounds per year. Women who continued for 4 years gained an average total of 8.1 pounds over average of 1.18 pounds over average of 6.4 pounds over an average total of 1.18 pounds over average of 6.4 pounds over an average total of 16.5 pounds over those 6 years, or approximately 725 pounds per year.
Other Side Effects
In a clinical study in 1,300 women who used DEPO-PROVERA for up to 7 years, some of the following effects may or may not have been related to their use of DEPO-PROVERA: irregular menstrual periods; decreased cramps; diarrhea; decreased breast swelling and tenderness; blushing of the hues of flesh; backache; depression; morpnea; acne; pelvic pain; urinary tract infections; but some of these could be serious. These include convulsions, infections, allergic reactions, skin irritations, fertility deep vein injury, use of an emblem,恶性肿瘤, breast cancer, or cervical cancer. If there are any other problems occur during your use of DEPO-PROVERA, you should be followed during use of DEPO-PROVERA.

suring the time you are using DEFO-PROVERA for contraception, may stop a period or your visits may stop complete. If you have been receiving the DEFO-PROVERA injections, equally every 3 months (13 weeks), then you are probably not pregnant. However, if you think hat you may be pregnant, see your health care provider.
2 Laboratory firm intermissions. We will also laboratory test your healthcare provider that you are using DEPCO-PERVIA for contraception. Certain blood tests are affected by hormones such as PGA.

4 Nursing Mother
Although DED-PROVERA can be passed to the nursing infant in the breast milk, no harmful effects of DED-PROVERA found in these children. DED-PROVERA does not prevent the breasts from producing milk, so it can be used by nursing infants until the amount is sufficient for the first week after birth, and then until 12 weeks after babybirth before you start using DED-PROVERA for constipation.
How often do I get my shot of IV fluoroNAVENA (125 mg every 3 months) (1 week) given in the buttocks or upper arm? To make sure that you are not pregnant, check with your doctor.
injectable intravenous DEPO-PROVERA is 150 mg per dose. If the patient is more than eight hours intramuscular DEPO-PROVERA is to make sure that you are not pregnant at the time of the first injection, it is essential that the injection be given ONLY during the first 6 weeks. DEPO-PROVERA must be given within 5 days after childbirth if you are not breastfeeding or 6 weeks after childbirth if you are exclusively breastfeeding. If you wait longer than 3 months before giving DEPO-PROVERA to a baby, you should determine that you are not pregnant before giving your injection of DEPO-PROVERA.

Missouri coach: Game versus Kansas will be most important of schedule
By David Mitchell
Lawrence Journal-World
Missouri is a 22 1/2-point favorite to defeat Kansas University when the rivals meet Saturday in Columbia, Mo.
To hear Mizzou football coach Gary Pinkel talk about his team's homecoming game, one might think the Tigers were preparing for a New Year's Day bowl.
It's the most important game on our schedule
every year," Pitkel said Monday during the Big 12 teleconference. "We all understand the importance and magnitude of this game."
That importance isn't undermined by the fact that both teams are不露 in league play.
"I don't think that matters at all," Pinkel said. "I think it makes the game that much more important. They're rebuilding. We're building, but this games stands out on our schedule more than any other game we'll play. It always will, regardless of whether the program is built or building."
Kansas tailback needs to step up to take pressure off of Whittenmore
By Ric Anderson
Topeka Capital-Journal
To keep Bill Whittemore's body from becoming even more black and blue, Kansas needs to add some Green to the mix.
A shade of Clark Green, to be exact.
Kansas coach Mark Mangino acknowledged Tuesday that Whittemore, KU's leading rusher, was showing the effects of his team-high 129 carries and that the Jayhawks want more production from Green, a red-shirt freshman tailback, and other ballcarriers.
"I'm not going to lie to you, Bill's banged up a little bit," Mangino said. "He's sore. He's been going since Aug. 9 and he's been getting after it pretty good. That's why ... we've got to get the tailback run game going. We've just got to. Because in the long run, Bill can help us as a passer. That’s his thing."
Mangino retains positive attitude despite low rating in Big 12 play
By Jason King
The Kansas City Star
They've been beaten like pinatas and humiliated everywhere from Lawrence to Las Vegas. Heck, the Kansas football team even lost to Baylor.
Still, after each and every defeat, the Jayhawks have found there's a place they can always take comfort—a place where they won't be belittled.
Their own locker room.
There are no dents in the doors, no overturned trash cans or soda machines. Despite his squad's 2-6 record, head coach Mark Mangino has stayed as cheery as Mr. Rogers as he tries to rebuild a program now regarded as the Big 12's worst.
Save last month's loss to Bowling Green, and Mangino hasn't thrown any barbs toward his players, much less chairs or clipboards. He knows his cliche-ridden, "We-tried-our-hardest" speeches — both to the team and to the media — may shock the KU partisans who expect him to be harder on the Jayhawks.
Missouri's Abron still recovering from knee injury; shaky as starter
Bv Corv Matteson
"It's probably a game-time decision," Abron said.
The Columbia Missourian
"It's probably a game-time decision," Abron said. He partially tore his left posterior collateral ligament at Texas Tech.
Missouri's depth chart lists Zack Abron as the No.1 tailback for Saturday's homecoming game against Kansas. That's not what he said.
He injured the knee on a second-quarter draw play for 14 yards, landing hard after the tackle.
"My knee felt a little tight," Abron said. "I was trying to stretch it out. I told one of the members on the training staff that my knee felt a little tight and it didn't feel right."

Mens and women's bowling teams to begin season this Saturday in Mid-state tourney
By Steve Vockrodt
sockrodt@kansan.com
Kansan sportstwitter
With its traveling roster finalized after several weeks of qualifying competition, the University of Kansas men's and women's bowling teams will compete in their first tournament of the fall season this weekend.
The 42nd Annual Mid-State Tournament in Springfield, Mo., will host several top teams from the Midwest. Joining KU will be other bowling powerhouses such as Wichita State, Nebraska and Central Missouri State.
"We hope to do well," coach Michael Fine said. "This will be a very strong field."
Jason Reese, Olathe graduate student, and Jason Elliot,
Ellsworth senior and University Daily Kansan designer, will lead an experienced men's team into the tournament. The men's team returns eight of its top-nine bowlers from last year's national championship qualifying team. Fine said he expected the men's team to improve upon last year's 10th-place finish at the tournament.
The women's team includes Annetta Manthei, White Lake, Minn. sophomore, and Kelly Zapf, Rochester, N.Y., freshman, and expects to perform as well as or better than last year's thirdplace finish at the same tournament.
The tournament format features seven matches for the teams on Saturday and six more on Sunday. Scoring is contingent upon the number of pins knocked over during the thirteen-match span. This tournament is among five competitions the team will attend this fall.
"The folks at Royal Crest bent over backwards to give us a home, but we are real excited to have the Jaybowl back and are pleased with the renovations.."
Michael Fine Bowling coach
Each competition earns the team power points based on a computer-scoring system to qualify the team for postseason tournaments taking place in the spring season.
KU returned to the Jaybowl this season after a year of practicing at Royal Crest Lanes at West Ninth and Iowa streets because of the Kansas Union renovations. The improved Jaybowl should serve as an advantage for the team this season. Fine said. The teams will once again have a place to meet on campus that has become a better facility.
"The folks at Royal Crest bent over backwards to give us a home, but we are real excited to have the Jaybowl back and are pleased with the renovations," Fine said.

seewanted to get a chance to prove himself. He said all three walk-on hopefuls were nervous and that practices were very intense with high expectations.
Woodman, who transferred from Washburn University and wouldn't be eligible to play this season because of NCAA rules, said Neil Dougherty, former Kansas assistant coach, had contacted his high school coach about Woodman possibly walking on to the Jayhawks when he was a senior. Woodman said definite plans were never made and he ended up playing for three years at Washburn.
Alexander said he put basketball on the back burner because he wanted to attend a larger school than the ones that made him offers.
"It it kind of occurred to me last year that there were going to be some walk-ons leaving and maybe some size leaving," Alexander said. "It was kind of my last opportunity to ever play basketball again. I figured I'd give it a shot and it's worked out pretty well so far."
As Kansas natives, Alexander
and Woodman had childhood dreams of playing basketball for Kansas.
"I think it's every kid's dream to put on some KU gear and be a Jayhawk," Woodman said. "And we're getting a shot at it and that's all you can really ask for."
"All I've tried to do is get in there when I get my chances, go as hard as I can, do my best, run as hard as I can," he said. "That's all I've tried to do and that's what I'm going to keep trying to do until they tell me I can't come anymore."
Woodman agreed with the feeling.
Rivalry CONTINUED FROM PAGE 16A
in a building on campus. If the spacing were entered into an old computer punch card, it would read "Beat KU." This legend may suggest the intensity of the rivalry.
The University of Kansas Marching Band will not play at Missouri. The Marching Jayhawks have not played there for several years because of an incident involving Jack Daniels bottles being thrown at the band.
Band member Anne Tempel, Seneca junior, said the band would go to Nebraska and Kansas State, but not to Missouri.
Ermanis said she had heard some Missouri students went so far as to steal a Kansas Band uniform and display it on campus.
Ryan Morrissley, Lawrence junior, said half the fun of playing Missouri came from the bitter rivalry.
"I remember several years back we showed up in Columbia wearing head-to-toe KU stuff," Morrissey said. "We sat right in front of the Antlers and did everything we could to make their blood hotter."
Morrisey also said the Tiger fan group got revenge. Morrissey and his friends were pelted with ice and hot dog bits. They were also assaulted with plenty of verbal abuse from the rabid Tiger faithful.
The Missouri University Police Department does not bulk up security when the Jayhawks come to town. Lt. Brian Weimer said there is no reason to do so. All of MUPD's officers work at every Missouri home game to ensure the safety of all the fans.
"In our culture now, security has already been heightened," Weimar said. "Most problems are because of alcohol or fights and there is nothing to show that those increase when KU is in town."
The game will start at 1:07 p.m. on Saturday at Missouri's Faurot Field.

DiCaprio films won't face off
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Miramax Films has avoided having Leonardo DiCaprio compete with himself by moving the release date of Gangs of New York to Dec. 20.
The Martin Scorsese epic was initially scheduled to open on Christmas Day, when it would have competed with another DiCaprio film, DreamWorks' Catch Me If You Can.
Miramax said last week that it would change the Dec. 25 Gangs release date, and announced late Thursday that the film would debut nationwide five days earlier.
With an estimated budget of $100 million, *Gangs of New York* is the most expensive film ever from Miramax. DiCaprio plays an Irish immigrant who gets caught up in political corruption, underworld violence and rioting in New York City during the Civil War. Cameron Diaz and Daniel
Day-Lewis co-star.
In Steven Spielberg's Catch Me If You Can, DiCaprio plays a master con artist who assumes several identities while running from an FBI agent, played by Tom Hanks.
"They're completely different roles, the movies are both directed by master directors, but they have different styles," he said. "Had we been released on the same date, that would have been problematic ... There would have been more comparisons."
Miramax didn't want to open Gangs any earlier in December because theater operators frequently shift films that open then to smaller screens as the busy holiday season approaches, Sands said.
Miramax chief operating officer Rick Sands told The Associated Press Friday that he was concerned about Gangs and Catch Me opening on the same day, but was comfortable with a five-day difference.
Gangs of New York began
niming in New York and Rome in August 2000 and continued through April 2001. It was originally set for release in December 2001, but was delayed until July and then late December 2002.
Sands downplayed the significance of the ever-shifting schedule, and said the quality of the film would speak for itself.
"I don't think that the public really focuses on shifting release dates. I think that's industry specific," he said.
Despite the date change, both films still face plenty of competition. The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, the second film adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien's trilogy, opens Dec. 18.
Also debuting Dec. 20 are Antwone Fisher, Denzel Washington's directorial debut, in which he also stars; Two Weeks Notice, starring Hugh Grant and Sandra Bullock; and the animated The Wild Thornberrys, based on the popular Nickelodeon series.

Iowa State ready for game
Iowa State Daily via U-Wire
iowa State University
By Jeff Raasch
AMES, Iowa—Iowa State had one of its best practices of the season Monday. just two days after a 49-3 thumping at the hands of the Oklahoma Sooners.
That's good news for ISU head coach Dan McCarney, who said he was much more concerned about how his team would bounce back against Texas this weekend than he was about the talent the Longhorns put on the field.
"Whatever happens with the score this week, I think you're going to see a team very unified
and very motivated to come out and play a lot better than they did last week," McCarney said.
Iowa State (6-2, 3-1 Big 12) will have to play better if it wants to have any hopes of upsetting Texas (6-1, 2-1). The seventhranked Longhorns are second nationally in pass defense and fifth in scoring defense. They have also won 16 straight home games.
ISU linebacker Matt Word said many of the players were itching to get back on the field after the big loss.
"A lot of the guys were talking about that they couldn't wait to get back out there on the field and get that nasty taste out of their
Jack Whitver, who was held without a catch Saturday, said Monday's practice might have been the best practice the receiving corps had had since he came to Iowa State three years ago.
mouth," Word said. "We're ready to get back on track and ready to bounce back."
"The receivers and the offense had the best practice, maybe even since I've been here," Whitner said. "We weren't dropping balls. We were running good routes. We were just hustling all over the place to catch the ball and get up the field — back to the little things that you take for granted sometimes."

"What we do the next five to six weeks will determine where we end up." Stoops said.
NORMAN, Okla. — Oklahoma head coach Bob Stoops seemed more confident than usual Tuesday at his weekly press luncheon. His No. 2 Sooners are still undefeated following two wins over Top 10 opponents and have earned the No. 1 ranking in the first Bowl Championship Series poll of the year.
No.2 Sooners undefeated
By Joshua Coats
This is the third consecutive season the Sooners have been
ranked in the top two in the first Bowl Championship Series poll of the year. Stoops said he was not concerned about where Oklahoma was ranked at that point.
Oklahoma was criticized early in the season for not having a difficult schedule.
The Sooners' non-conference schedule consisted of two bottom feeders from the Western Athletic Conference, a team that is only in its second season in Division I football and a team currently on probation.
"It doesn't matter to us," Stoops said. "It's great for the fans. As far as us, though, we have to go play and keep winning."

Success lies out of state
Josiane Lima, Sao Paulo Brazil freshman, spikes past a Cornhusker defender. The Jayhawk's rigid defense and tough attacks against the Cornhuskers were not enough to secure a win. The Jayhawks lost all three matches played at home yesterday.
As impressive as the Kansas volleyball team's 8-0 start to the season and two tournament titles in as many weekends are, the team has been less than stellar since the beginning of Big 12 Conference play.
The Jayhawks are tied with Texas A&M and Colorado for fifth place in the Big 12 at 5-5 after yesterday's loss to No. 4-ranked Nebraska. If they keep up that pace, they'll finish at .500 in the conference and have double digit conference victories — both for the first time.
It would also be the first 20-win season for the team since 1991, which might put the Jayhawks in the NCAA Tournament, but the team shouldn't be considered a true success until more than half of those wins come against Big 12 opponents.
Already, Kansas is more than halfway to the school-best eight Big 12 victories in 1999 and should pick up another five with games against Iowa State, Colorado, Texas Tech, Baylor and Oklahoma. The Jayhawks could end up above the break-even mark in the Big 12 if they can top Texas A&M at home.
While 10 or 11 conference victories would be a breakout year for Kansas, it isn't likely any of them would be against Big 12 bullies Kansas State, Nebraska or Texas.
Kansas' struggles against conference foes are apparent in the Big 12 statistics. Entering last night's game, the Jayhawks were in the top half of all important offensive stats overall, but ranked the same or lower when looking at just conference games.
One way for the Jayhawks to move up the Big 12 standings in the future is to sign more players from outside of Kansas.
Half of this year's 14 Jayhawks are from in-state and while they are important pieces to the continued improvement of the team, getting more players from around the nation would greatly improve the team's chances of finishing in the upper echelon on the conference.
Nebraska, which has finished atop the Big 12 in five of the conference's six seasons and owns a 68-1 mark against Kansas, has proven that talented players from around the country can help a team succeed.
The Cornhuskers have just four native Nebraskans on their roster, just one of which — senior Laura Pilakowski — is on more than one of the conference's individual statistics leader boards. Nebraska's top player, Greichaly Cepero, is from Puerto Rico and played high school volleyball in Maryland.
Kansas made two big steps towards finishing near the top of the Big 12 last offseason, signing two players from outside of Kansas middle blocker Josiane Lima and setter Andi Rozum.
Lima, from Sao Paulo, Brazil, has been the Jayhawks' most prolific hitter, leading the team with 218 kills, averaging 3.89 per game before yesterday. If Lima can keep up her pace for the next three years, she should break Amanda Reeves career kills record by more than 200.
Also on pace to shatter records is Rozum. The freshman from Loveland, Colo., is averaging 12.41 assists per game before facing Nebraska, which would be the third best season mark if the season ended today. She is on course to break Julie Woodruff's career assist record of 4.209 by about 800 also.
3
With these two talented young players and a high quality group of native Kansans on the rise, coach Ray Bechard is well on his way to Bob Lockwood's record of 150 coaching victories at Kansas. Looking outside of the state for more players to help him reach that mark should also result in a move up the conference standings and far into the NCAA tournament. And maybe even a victory or two against Nebraska.

The Kansas volleyball team may have lost more than its match against Nebraska last night.
The No. 4-ranked Cornhuskers (18-1, 10-0 Big 12) extended their consecutive Big 12 winning streak to 60 when it swept the Jayhawks in three games (30-22, 30-21, 30-20) at the Horejsi Family Athletics Center. Nebraska also improved its record over the Jayhawks to 68-1.
Freshman middle blocker Josiane Lima left early in the third game with a hand injury. Bechard said Lima injured her right pinkie finger where it meets the palm. X-rays will be taken today.
"Many teams are big and physical, but they got a rare combination of being big and athletic, too," coach Ray Bechard said of the Cornhuskers. "That's why they are a great team."
Kansas (14-5, 5-5) is in the midst of a three-match losing streak. The Jayhawks were held to a .068 hitting percentage, their lowest this season. The previous record was .089 in Saturday's match at Missouri.
Even with poor hitting numbers,the Jayhawks learned and improved against Nebraska.
For the fourth time this season, no Jayhawk recorded a double-double. Junior outside hitter Sarah Rome led the team with 10 kills. Sophomore libero Jill Dorsey had nine digs.
"In every game we do things that make us better," sophomore outside hitter Lindsey Morris said. "I don't really know if I could say one thing in particular — even just coming together as a team, not giving up. It's the little things that make us better every day."
taking nine of the final 10 points to win 30-21.
"I thought we fought hard. We executed pretty well for 80 percent of each game," Bechard said. "It seemed like they went on a little run, and that's what a great team does is finish strong."
Trailing 14-9 in game one, the Jayhawks scored six of the next eight points and cut Nebraska's lead to 16-15. Leading 20-17, the Cornhuskers scored six of the next eight points and four of the final five points, winning the game 30-22. The Jayhawks never led the game.
in game three, with Nebraska leading 5-3, Lima and senior outside hitter Molly Scavuzzo attempted to block a Nebraska kill when Lima ran to the Kansas bench holding her right hand and screaming. After she left the game, the Cornhuskers scored the next four points and extended their lead to 10-3. Kansas
Kansas took its biggest lead of the match in the next game at 6-3. The Cornhuskers regained the lead at 11-10. Then, with a 13-12 lead, they made a 5-2 run, stretching the lead to 18-14 before Kansas took a timeout. The Jayhawks kept it close at 21-20, but the Cornhuskers finished strong.
dodged two elimination points before they lost the game 30-20.
"We've got to take full advantage of the opportunity to get back on the winning track," Bechard said. "We knew this stretch would be difficult. Hopefully we didn't lose a player in the process. We hope that the team can recover mentally and be ready to play on Saturday."
The Jayhawks go back on the road for their next conference match in Norman, Okla. to take on the Sooners at 7 p.m. Saturday.
Tim Alexander, Wichita senior, and Ryan Woodman, Andover junior, have been practicing with the Kansas men's basketball team. Both hope to secure spots on the team as walk-ons.

Kansas walk-on hopefuls don't want to wake from Jayhawk hoop dream
By Kelly McNearney

Three Jayhawks are working their tails off trying to secure spots on the Kansas men's basketball team.
tim Alexander, Wichita senior, Ryan Woodman, Andover junior, and Brett Olson, Chanute senior, have been practicing with the team every day this week in hopes of becoming the newest walk-ons.
Fifty-five Kansas students tried out for the team last week at Allen Fieldhouse. Only Alexander, Woodman and Olson were invited to attend Jayhawk practices as the final stage of their tryout.
"Coach (Ben) Miller let me know that I'd be having a tryout with the varsity team, which is a pretty cool deal," said Woodman. "Not a lot of people get to do it so it's a good feeling."
"I put on a Kansas practice Jersey and walked into Allen Fieldhouse," Alexander said. "I kind of thought, 'What am I doing here?'
That first practice was awe-inspiring for the hopefuls.
Woodman agreed and said the sight of himself in a Kansas jersey surprised him.
Alexander and Woodman, who played against each other in high school, spent their fall break preparing for their first practice Sunday.
"We threw on the KU gear and kind of looked at ourselves and were like,
"I put on a Kansas practice jersey and walked into Allen Fieldhouse, What am I doing here?"
Tim Alexander
Wichita senior
'What's going on here?'" Woodman said. "I have a KU Jersey on. This is weird."
Alexander said the feeling quickly ended once practice began, when players realized what they trying for.
Alexander said competing against
some of the best players in the country was difficult because they were so big and strong and like no one he had ever played before. But he said he felt comfortable at practices.
"I think I've handled it pretty well, and now after three practices, I think things are starting to make more sense and slow down for me," Alexander said. "Now I'm able to enjoy it and have fun with it more."
Woodman said the practices were nerve-wracking because he did not want to make mistakes, but at the same time

Women's basketball readies for season

The tournament featured the best female high school players in the nation and lasted from June 13 to 16. Ervin's numerous accolades include selections to the USA Today's All-America team, Nike All-America team, and Street & Smith's All-America second team.
Laura Ervin, Inglewood (Calf) High School senior has given Kansas a verbal commitment. Ervin, a 6 foot 3 forward, was among the top four in points (12.3 per game), rebounds (9.3 per game), blocks (1.25 per game), and field goal percentage .513) at the USA Women's Youth Development Festival this summer.
Texas Tech and Kansas State also lead the way in Preseason All Big 12 selections.
Kansas State's Nicole Ohlde, a junior, was named Preseason Player of the Year, while Plenetite Pierson, a junior, and Jia Perkins, a sophomore, give Tech two players on the first team. Joining them are Texas sophomore Stacey Stephens, Iowa State junior Lindsey Wilson and Oklahoma junior Caton Hill. Wilson and Hill tied for the fifth spot.
Texas Tech owns the top spot in the just-released Big 12 Women's Basketball Coaches poll. Tech edged out secondplace Kansas State 114-113. Texas, Oklahoma and Colorado make up the rest of the top five. The coaches predicted Kansas to finish 11th in front of Baylor.
Kansas freshman Tamara Ransburg Virginia Beach, Va., has achieved a qualifying score on her ACT, making her eligible to practice and play this season. The 6 foot 4 freshman forward averaged 24 points and 12 rebounds in her senior season at Tilton High School in Tilton, N.H.
Ervin will not officially be a layhawk until she signs a national letter of intent. High school seniors can sign letters of intent from Nov. 6 to 13.

Rivalry between schools continues

A new chapter will be written in the Border War on Saturday.
Regardless of how the football game between the University of Kansas and the University of Missouri turns out, new fuel will be added to the fire. University of Kansas students hear horror stories of the rowdy behavior in Columbia every year. Perhaps some stories are rumors, but some are true.
Jillian Ermanis, Minnetonka, Minn., junior has seen the war from both sides. She enrolled at Kansas as a freshman, transferred to Missouri for her sophomore year and then came back to Kansas this year.
Ermanis says Missouri takes the annual interstate battle more serious than Kansas.
"They are really bitter against us." Ermanis said. "They really, really hate us."
On a campus tour in Columbia, Mo., the tour guide told Ermanis there was a message in the spacing of the window

'Bands & Ballots' tries to get students to vote Nov.5
By Amy Kelly akelly@kansan.com Jayplay writer
In the days leading up to Bill Clinton's election to the presidency in 1992, the phrase "Rock the Vote" echoed in the ears of MTV disciples on a daily basis.
The national campaign started by members of the recording industry struck a chord with a new generation. Between 1992 and 1997 voting among younger voters increased 13 percent.
The position of president is not up for this year's election on Nov. 5, but the Kansas Democratic Party (KSDP) is hoping the buzz words "Bands & Ballots" will carry the same weight as "Rock the Vote" in Lawrence.
On Oct.29, a week before Election Day, the KSDP will sponsor an event with the catchy title of "Bands & Ballots" at the recently refurbished Granada Theatre, 1020 Massachusetts St., as a way to encourage younger voters to make a difference.
Organizers will also collect advanced ballots that evening to submit the next morning.
"This is an idea that we've had for awhile," Julia Gaughan, KSDP field organizer, said. "It is an opportunity to turn in advanced ballots and just have some fun."
Although the theme of "Bands & Ballots" revolves around the political election, those in attendance could very well mistake the atmosphere for any jamming night at a downtown club.
Bands Phat Albert and KB Posse are lending their talents to the voting gala that kicks off at 9 p.m.
Saxophonist for Phat Albert Brendan O'Bryhim said Phat Albert signed on for "Bands & Ballots" through the band's connection to Jason Hodges, a finance director for Democrat Dennis Moore's campaign for the Third Congressional District.
O'Bryhim admits he considers himself more of an independent than a democrat, and his band does not intend to spew political propaganda.
"Hopefully it will be a break from all of that," he said. "I know that politics can be pretty dull."
Regardless of what side of the political spectrum one supports, Gaughan said the main purpose was to get the college community excited about the upcoming election.
The various voting opportunities on campus had already made an impression, she said.
"There been a lot of activity on campus with voter registration," Gaughan said. "I know that thousands of people signed up."
There is no cover charge for "Bands & Ballots," although attendees must be 18 or older.
Organizers will be accepting advanced ballots throughout the evening.
For more information about "Bands & Ballots," contact Gaughan by phone at (785) 749-2121 or by e-mail at juliag@ksdp.org.

Local band strives to succeed
By Bill Heinen bheinen@kansan.com Jayplay writer
There are only a handful of local bands that exist somewhere between the underground and the mainstream. Despite its self-proclaimed underdog status, Lawrence rock band Podstar has found itself in such a stance for the past few years. Now it's ready to explode, hoping to put this college town on the map.
"If we could be synonymous with Lawrence, that would be awesome," bassist and singer Cameron Hawk said.
Three out of four members, Hawk guitarist and singer JoJo Longbottom, and guitarist Aaron Swenson have been together since the eighth grade. Drummer Ryan Magnuson is the most recent addition. In that time, the Lawrence residents have worked diligently to make music their career.
"We'd like to do this for as long as we can hold out," Hawk said.
The quartet has played a slew of shows all over Kansas City and in Lawrence, most recently headlining with Lucky Boys Confusion and The Stereo at The Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St.
While some music-lovers might come for the other bands, Podstar has a way of winning over the audience during a live set, as its members jump around the stage furiously pounding their heads to the beats.
"We all aspire to one day have a show just like Kiss," Longbottom said. "Hot licks, hot chicks and explosions."
The band cites Kiss as a major influence, along with Foo Fighters, The Replacements, and pretty much anything that rocks, Magnuson said.
And while there haven't been any pyrotechnics on stage alongside the blaring amps, Podstar's members still love to have fun and rock out on tour as often as they can.
"We'd like to be out there all the time, just having a blast with the audience, just like a party," said Hawk.
The group has completed two albums Podstar and Lovely 32, which were both released by Noisome Records and are available at 7th Heaven, 1000 Massachusetts St., Ste. D.
The group has played with such acts as Superdrag and Ultimate Fakebook.
Podstar also boasts several tours in its music career already, with wild stories about each venue, from Longbottom spending a night in a Brooklyn, N.Y., bar being cared for by a 60-year-old Vietnam War veteran, to the group being forced to stay overnight in an arcade in Utah as 17 police cars and a patrol helicopter scouted the surrounding area for three escaped convicts.
Podstar is currently preparing to tour the east coast, traveling from New York to Savannah, Ga. Upcoming projects also include polishing new songs, and the band plans to record a third album in spring 2003.
Podstar will play with National Fire Theory at 9 p.m. on Oct. 31 at the haunted house, The Beast, 1401 W. 13th St., Kansas City, Mo.

For those of you whose only exposure to Christian music is P.O.D. or the typical ballads you hear while flipping through stations, a better incentive has come in the form of the O.C. Supertones.

O. C., or Orange County, stands for its place of origin and style of music. Comparable to No Doubt, the fusion of ska, funk and rock make for an album full of fun and dance-worthy tunes.
So while Hi-Fi Revival may not be the best choice to listen to during a house party, it is still a great, upbeat CD for a break from traditional Christian music or when you're in a good mood.

Trumpets, trombones, electric guitar and drums pervade to contribute to the unique sound. Also, each of the 15 songs are packed full of heavy guitar riffs and catchy beats.
The Belles, Omertá
Lakeshore S
Omertá, the new album from The Belles, is the perfect album for a Sunday
morning. While you are waiting for the previous night's festivities to wear off — or sink in — the mellow, mainly acoustic songs on The Belles' new album will provide plenty of listening enjoyment. The Belles are a local band featuring Christopher Tolle and Jake Cardwell.
Songs such as "(Who Will Be) Here to Hear?" and "A Thousand Ships" are tailor-made for anyone planning on chillin' like a villain. "Victory Parade" is reminiscent of some of the more mellow stuff on Tom

Petty's Wildflowers.
However, songs like "You Can't Have it All" and "Little Mexican" have a definite punch to them and show the band has range beyond melodic acoustic songs.

The Forty-Fives, Fight Dirty Yep Roc
If the Strokes are this year's Backstreet Boys and the Hives are 'NSYNC, then the Forty-Fives are basically 'NSYNC with a make over. In addition to having the same
four last letters as the Hives, the Forty-Fives have a sound that isn't much different either.
This isn't necessarily a bad thing, though. Anyone who is a fan of the Hives will like the raw energy that Fight Dirty brings to the table, too. The guitar on songs such as "Out of my Mind" and "My Kind of Girl" sounds like Chuck Berry on Creatine. The main difference between the 45's and the bands mentioned above is that it has an organist. Nevertheless, this variation is not enough to make Fight Dirty sound very original.

waterfront is accessible by hiking or driving.
Fees: A $5-per-day vehicle permit is required, and camping in the campgrounds costs $5.50 per night.
Elk City State Park
Description: This 12,000-acre park also features a 4,500-acre lake. The park offers hiking and biking trails and campgrounds, as well as fishing and boating, and is about a 3 1/2 hour drive from Lawrence.

'Out of Focus' debuts, gives student films light
By Nathan Dayani ndayani@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
A new show on the student television station, KUJH, may help bring some focus to the local arts scene.
Out of Focus made its debut on KUJH the first week of October and should air at least three more times by the end of the semester, said Chris Martin, the show's coordinator and director.
Although some of the show's format may still be in its infancy, Martin said it would be primarily devoted to local film.
The show takes films that are 10 to 15 minutes long and pieces them together giving them context, said the Prairie Village senior.
"We have interviews with filmmakers about the technical process they went through and some of the funny stories that may have happened while making films," Martin said.
"It's hard for student films to be seen other than in class and with family and friends," said Rea.
Patrick Rea, Schuyler, Neb., senior said Out of Focus was a good opportunity for local filmmakers to showcase their work.
Rea said one of the show's assets was that it had interviews with some of the directors and filmmakers after showing clips from their movies.
"It gives the students a chance to show a little bit of the behind the scenes perspec
tives," he said.
Another mainstay of the show is a section called "On the Street," in which students get to talk about their favorite movie quote, scene and favorite actors and actresses. Gary Hawke, general manager of KUJH, said the show's brief interviews effectively integrated humor and entertainment as well as achieving the goal of showcasing the arts scene.
"The show did a very good job," he said. "It's well-produced; it shows a lot of different stuff for students."
Martin said upcoming shows would focus on a common theme, such as a show about horror in film, local documentaries or a sketch comedy show, similar in format to Kids in the Hall. Hawke said the show
OUTOFFOCUS
Airs on KUJH, cable channel 66, broadcast channel 14, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays at 10 p.m.
Students interested in contributing to the show can send suggestions or ideas to kuoutoffocus@hotmail.com.
would run on KUJH, cable channel 66 broadcast channel 14, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays at 10 p.m.

Late-night eateries attract study crowd
By Jenna Goepfert
jgoepfert@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
It was just after 11 p.m. Lights shone dimly and oldies played over the speakers at Perkins Restaurant, 1711 W. 23rd St.
Crouched over her auditing textbook, Jamie Tangney had just settled in her booth.
Tangney, Wichita graduate student, has made a ritual of studying at the 24-hour diner after coffee shops close.
"Having other people around keeps me motivated," she said. "Plus, if I stayed home, I think I'd just go to bed."
Manager Nadine Peaches said Tangney was not alone in her pursuit of 24-hour academic productivity.
Coffee shops and restaurants that stay open after midnight attract after-hours studying crowds.
Snacks, coffee, distractions and, in some cases, the fact that smoking is allowed, are the main reasons why those places are more popular than home or the

night.
She said the crowds usually increased during midterms and finals, but the daily study crowd began coming in around dinnertime and often stayed al!
Peaches said the distractions of a public place made 24-hour dinners and coffee shops more appealing.
"When I used to study, I liked to be somewhere there's noise," she said.
In a nearby booth, Lindsey Weinstein and Melanie Wallach flipped through their textbooks.
Weinstein, Tarzana, Calif., sophomore said the promise of caffeine and lack of the comforts of home kept her coming back.
24-HOUR STUDY LOCALES
International House of Pancakes, 3102 Iowa St.
Java Break, 17 E. Seventh St., serves hot food until 1 a.m.
Munchers Bakery, 925 Iowa St.
Perkins Restaurant, 1711 W.23rd St.
Steak & Shake, 3111 Nieder Road.
"Ilike the music, too," said Wallach, St. Louis junior, as Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons crooned "Big Girls Don't Cry."
Across town at Munchers Bakery, 925 Iowa St., employee Heather Hodges studied in peace.
"It's quiet and we have caffeine," she said of the bakery's benefits.
The 24-hour bakery was empty that evening—a rare phenomenon, Hodges said.
She said people studying frequented the bakery from about 8 p.m. until midnight, smoking cigarettes and cramming for tests.
"Most of the time I think they feel guilty for not getting anything, so they get coffee so they can stay awake," she said.
Julie Maddox, Kansas City, Mo., senior and Pete Cridland, Chicago senior, settled in for the long haul at a back room in Java Break, 17 E. Seventh St.
The two said they came to the coffee shop at least once a week and regularly studied there until about 3 a.m.
They said the atmosphere made it easier to stay awake and on-task.
"You have no reason to turn on the TV because there isn't one," Maddox said. "No roommates, no million trips to the refrigerator."
Coffee by his side, Andrew Shernuk slouched in a chair in the corner of Java Break and studied national security.
Shernuk, Overland Park sophomore, said he studied at the coffee shop regularly—including a marathon term-paperwriting session last semester.
"I got out of here at 3:30 a.m.," he said. He had started writing a 25-page paper at 7 p.m.
Shernuk said he liked the availability of his 24-hour study environment and studied better in active settings.
"Maybe it's a psychological condition, but silence doesn't suit me well," he said.

'Abandon'leaves audience empty
FILM
Finally, a movie about the big question: Why do college girls fall for rich, shallow jerks like the one featured in Stephen Gaghan's Abandon?
SHARE THIS PAGE ONLINE OR IN A BROADCAST.
Taking the prestige of his Traffic Oscarwin and flushing it down the nearest toilet, Gaghan abruptly puts an end to Katie Holmes' quality-driven streak, but the writer-director at least addresses an important issue. Maybe his next film will explore other collegiate mysteries that plague the student body, such as finding the person who invented those evil ID scanners, and why amateur comedians use their talents to destroy amateur movie critics in the Free for All.
Stephen Shupe
sshue@kansan.com
In Abandon, a group of finance students are poised to sell out to the corporate machine. The most studious is Catherine (Holmes), a morose type who spends her nights under the glow of library fluorescent lights. Catherine's boyfriend, Embry (Charlie Hunnam), disappeared two years ago and has now returned. Embry's reemergence as a stalker creep won't be explained until the film's final 30 seconds, so up until then we assume he's there to inform his graduating girlfriend it's well past the time to move out of the dorms.
In extended flashbacks, the film presents the aforementioned question: What makes a girl as smart as Catherine go gaga over a guy as skin-deep as Embry? Beyond
Embry's good looks and presumably large penis, the answer is unclear. Embry needs only to toss her books out of a window to get Catherine all hot and bothered.
In the flashbacks, we see Embry was a music teacher, who pumped up his students by chanting, "I'm at the infantile center of the goddamn universe!" He was also a theater director, and appeared in a Super 8 film in which he opened a performance by turning to the audience and saying, "Screw you people." Whether these sequences explain Catherine's seduction, I'm still not sure.
Gaghan's scatter shot approach to narrative results in a mystery movie without any mystery — the way The Usual Suspects might have looked had Keyser Soze stepped from the shadows in the first scene. The movie is not inepthly filmed by Requiem for a Dream's cinematographer Matthew Libatique, but it hinges entirely on its Fight Club-inspired finale, which is equal parts funny and weird.
'ABANDON'★1/2(OUT OF FOUR)
Starring Katie Holmes, Charlie Hunnam and Benjamin Bratt
Rated PG-13 for drug and alcohol content, sexuality, some violence and language Playing at South Wind 12, 3433 Iowa St.
In addition to Holmes and Hunnam, Benjamin Bratt gives a smug, smirking performance as Det. Wade Handler, the alcoholic crumb bum assigned to find Embry. Wade attends an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting with the youngest group of substance abusers in screen history, and he ends up taking Embry's place at Catherine's side.
This is one of those movies where no one mentions the decade-long age difference between the lead couple, not even Catherine's best friends (Zooey Deschanel and Gabrielle Union). What is it with Hollywood and May-December romances?
And here's a note to moviegoers: Obey the movie's title and hightail it out of the theater. For those interested in the sexuality of the stars, all the underwear and bedroom scenes happen before the 30-minute mark, the standard time limit for ticket refunds. Get the refund and go see The Rules of Attraction, a much more inventive take on young American psychos attending a university near you.
Horror movie with a familiar 'Ring'
The Ring, the American remake of one of the biggest hits in Japan, makes some biting points in its neatly done package.
---
FILM
Rachel Keller, played by Naomi Watts, is a newspaper reporter in Seattle unsettled by the sudden, concurrent deaths of her niece and a few of her friends. Her son, Aidan, played by David Dorfman, was close to the niece. He tells his mother that the niece knew she was going to die after she watched a tape. Rachel wonders what was on that tape.
James Owen
jowen@kansan.com
She goes to the mountain resort where the kids hang out and finds an inconspicuous tape in the resort's lobby. She watches a video that seems like a film student's remake of the Soundgarden video "Black Hole Sun." Immediately after she ejects the tape, she gets a phone call. The voice at the other end says that she will die in seven days. What was initially portrayed as a harmless urban legend now becomes a race to find out the origins of the tape and
why such a tragic and unfortunate end comes to all who watch it.
Helping her in her pursuit is Noah, a guy who knows a great deal about video. Noah, played by Martin Henderson, helps her pinpoint the origins of the video's images. The week-long journey leads Rachel all the way to a sleepy coastal town with a violent history. The mystery ends up being more representative of the downfall of our family structure than just a mere plot device designed to give the audience a cheap thrill.
The only problem of The Ring is that it imitates other films in its genre. Director Gore Verbinski (Mouse Hunt, The Mexican) gives the film a great look, but the Seattle he portrays looks like the dreary, dripping urban landscape from the film Seven. Everything is done in somber tones, and every scene is immersed in fog or driving rain. This contributes to the overall sense of despair and hopelessness of the characters because it is so familiar to the genre.
Despite the director aping popular films, The Ring makes itself distinct in execution and style. The imagery of the film is dark and menacing. The images in the video eventually lead to clues that take Rachel through her journey.
The Ring is about how sin is passed on from parents to their children, becoming their cross to bear. It's no mistake that many of the victims in this film are young. Sin is something that never ends. It is a perpetual force - like the shape of a ring.

Film takes on gun violence in America
In his newest film, Bowling for Columbine, Michael Moore takes up arms against the NRA and explores the United States' problem with gun control and firearm-related murders.
Like he did in his previous movies. Moore sets out to try to find some answers to why the United States has the largest firearm problem in the world.
In Bowling for Columbine, Moore first concludes that everyone is willing to blame someone else and tries to distinguish the real culprit from the scapegoats. Among the targeted scapegoats are militias, the media, American history, heavy metal, and Charlton Heston and the NRA. Moore's interviews with members of the Michigan militia turn into Daily Show-esque profiles, and he talks with Marilyn Manson who seems to be the wisest person in the entire film. These interviews raise interesting perspectives on the issue of gun control but seem to be guided by Moore, who casts a heavy-handed shadow over the entire film. The film also loses focus from time to time, going off on tangents pertaining to racism. Perhaps Moore bit off a little more than he could chew this time, which is hard to believe as he only seems to get bigger.
He does this by blending documentary reporting with his natural charisma and humor to create a finished product with the wit of a Christopher Guest mockumentary and the recoil of a 60 Minutes report.
Not just bigger in terms of girth but also in popularity and his presence in the movie. Even though Moore raises many good points, such as American culture's glorification of violence in entertainment and news, Bowling for Columbine feels subjective. The film is hard to completely buy into, making it more of a conversation piece than a bullet.

Sleep students catch Z's
Campus byways often home for tired nappers

The Stilwell senior said she slept in the hallways of Robinson Center during an hour-long break between classes everyday last semester
"I just slept on the floor," she said. "I used my backpack as a pillow."
Adriance found a favorite spot on Robinson's second floor, where she would sleep most days. But one morning, as Adriance was beginning to fall asleep, gymnastics students filled her hallway. They began their stretching routine

in her makeshift bedroom.
"It was kind of annoying because I slept there everyday." she said of the experience.
Adriance said the hallway distractions were a problem when she first began napping on campus, but they were something she got used to with frequency.
"I'd get to where I would lay down and be asleep in two minutes," she said. "Sometimes it would wake me up, but not that often."
Lori Haines, Menomonee Fall, Wisc., sophomore, says she sleeps too deeply to feel safe napping on campus.
However, setting up camp on campus seems like an intimidating idea to other students.
"You don't know what people are going to do to you," she said.
Haines said she was worried someone might try to rob her.

Sleeping CONTINUED FROM PAGE 8
Haines admitted safety was not her primary reason for staying awake. Between schoolwork and her two jobs, she said she simply didn't have time to nap.
"That's what campus is for—studying," Haines said. "Home is for sleeping."
Nappers should not be concerned about their safety while slumbering on campus. If the past is any indication, the likelihood of a problem arising is small.
Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office said he had not dealt with incidences of property being stolen or students' safety being jeopardized while napping. Students having their
property stolen because the items are left unattended is the problems his office deals with most frequently, he said.
"The security of their personal items could be a concern," he said. "Most of our stolen property comes from unattended property. The majority of our thefts are that."

Health should be another concern for nappers.
Dr. Linda Keeler, psychiatrist at Counseling and Psychological Services, warns that taking daytime naps could interrupt a person's natural sleep cycle.
"Daytime napping does affect the depth and quality of sleep," she said.
Keeler said napping for more than one hour could delay the onset of nighttime sleep, leading to fewer hours of continuous sleep. This could begin a cycle damaging to a student's health, she said.
For students napping to cope through the day rather than to simply pass the time Keeler offers these tips:
Limit the intake of caffeine, especially late in the evening.
Smokers should smoke fewer cigarettes.
Eat regularly. Students should start the day with breakfast and eat every three to four hours during the daytime. This will help keep the day-night cycle regulated.

Early detection best defense against flu, colds
I have this incredible knack for getting sick at the worst possible time.
HEALTH
I got food poisoning at camp in high school, I had migraines on Christmas and, on my last birthday, I went to the emergency room for the first time because of appendicitis.

Leslie Kimmel
lkimmel@kansan.com
Talk about timing.
So that's why I'm already preparing for when I catch the flu during my hardest final this semester.
It seems like, no matter how many times you wash your hands or how well you eat, it's still possible for some of those little bugs to survive and strike.
Myra Strother, chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said Watkins saw an increase in sicknesses such as influenza and bronchitis during the winter months.
"Flu season will be starting in November," she said. "There is usually a second peak in December or January."
Colds and other viral infections also tend to break out during the winter, when people spend most of their time in contained spaces.
Oftentimes, Strother said, viral infections can worsen and lead to bacterial infections such as strep throat, sinus infections and bronchitis if they go untreated.
So it's important to recognize that you are sick, even if it is just a cold, and seek treatment as soon as possible.
Strother said it was best to see a doctor anytime you could tell your health problem had gone beyond a cold.
I know a general fear of hospitals deters many, but trust me, getting better a few days early is well worth a few hours inside those hospital walls. Even if it is on your birthday.
Watkins Health Center laid out a few guidelines to help differentiate between the flu and a cold. The flu is often characterized by a high fever, headaches, body aches, severe coughs and fatigue that make you want to stay in bed.
A runny nose, sneezing, a sore throat and sometimes a low fever accompany colds.
Calling a triage nurse at Watkins can also help you determine if you have caught the flu.
But even if it is just the common cold that's getting you down, it's better to treat it at home before it leads to more serious bacterial infections.
But, Strother said there were some common myths about how to cure a sickness at home that should be disregarded.
Myth — Feed a cold, starve a fever.
Fact — With any sickness, it is best to stay hydrated and eat well. It's important to drink lots of clear liquids and eat foods, such as chicken soup, that help clear mucus, Strother said,
Also, if you have a sore throat, gargle 1/4 teaspoon of salt in 1/2 cup of warm water every few hours, but make sure the salt is dissolved. Tea with lemon and honey eases a sore throat as well.
Myth — Antihistamines work best

when feeling congested.
Fact Antihistamines are not what the doctor ordered when it comes to a cold.
"They might not realize that Benadryl is an antihistamine and not a decongestant. Sudafed is a decongestant that works best on sick students," Strother said.
Watkins officials recommend you use a decongestant, an over-the-counter saline nasal spray or a cool-mist vaporizer in your room when feeling congested.
But remember, to recover from any sickness it's important to rest and take care of your long-term health.

Wilson brothers arise as new funny family
POP VULTURE
One staple in the world of showbiz throughout time has been the brother comedy team. Whether it is the Marx Brothers, the Lawrence Brothers (Joey and those two younger ones) or the Wayans Brothers, the idea of comedic antics kept all in the family has never failed to amuse mainstream audiences worldwide.
Marc Ingber
mingber@kansan.com
Today, however, we are lucky enough to be blessed with a group of brothers who can't really be compared to anyone else in the history of the brother comedy team. Their names might not be as funny as Groucho or Zeppo, but Owen, Luke and Andrew Wilson can be just as funny in their own way.
In films such as Bottle Rocket and The Royal Tenenbaums, the Wilson boys show that brothers can be funny without
throwing pies at each other's faces. The Wilson brothers create humor beyond the world of physical comedy, and they don't have to even play brothers to do it. In fact, they have never played brothers in any of their movies.
Andrew has bit parts in all of the movies Owen Wilson has co-written with his college friend Wes Anderson (Bottle Rocket, Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums). He
usually has only a few lines in the movies that he's in, but he makes the most of them. He's quite amusing as Margot Tenenbaum's biological father in The Royal Tenenbaums.
Luke is the Justin Timberlake (a.k.a. the cute one) of the Wilson brothers.His meltdown in the tennis match scene in Tenenbaums is hilarious, and he even shows his dramatic ability in some of the most serious scenes in the movie.
But, without a doubt, Owen is the true jewel of the Wilson clan. He's the one with the blond hair and the straight nose. He steals the show, no matter what movie he's in.
He's excellent in Bottle Rocket and Zoolander. However, his role as Eli Cash in The Royal Tenenbaums puts him in legendary status in my book. And that's not
even his best role. That would be his stint as Kevin, the ex-fiance, in Meet the Parents. It is true genius. When I think of the great minds of the last thousand years, I think Isaac Newton, Albert Einstein and Owen Wilson.
The type of comedy that the Wilson brothers do is not for everyone. It's one of those things you either love or hate. Whereas most of my friends and I are in the "love it" category, my parents are without a doubt in the "hate it" category after seeing The Royal Tenenbaums.
But those who love it know that movies such as Rushmore and The Royal Tenenbaums are truly some of the most original ones to come out in years. The Marx Brothers they're not, but would Groucho ever star as a male supermodel named Hansel? I think not.
Greek tragedy chosen for University Theatre
By Donovan Atkinson
datkinson@kansan.com
Jayplay writer
Iphigenia in Aulis by Euripides, which opens the University Theatre's Inge series tonight, explores how far one's loyalty to his country will go.
A country has been wronged. After suffering an attack, leaders decide to strike back in order to prevent any future battles. But, in order to be successful, they must make a sacrifice: the daughter of the general.
"It's really an interrogation of how soldiers and the populous deal with war," said Sara Armstrong, director and Stillwater, Okla., graduate student.
Iphigenia also examines the impact war and patriotic fervor have on soldiers and their families.
In the play, Agamemnon is told that, for his army to be successful in its campaign, he must sacrifice his daughter, Iphigenia.
Armstrong said she was initially drawn to Iphigenia, one of Euripides' lesser known plays, because of its strong portrayal of women. But,the theme of war and patriotism resonated with her after the attacks on Sept. 11,2001.
Erin Burns, Kansas City, Mo., sophomore and chorus member, said war and patriotism were parts of life that students saw.
"It's very poignant right now," she said.
For the production, classical Greek theater and modern theater elements have been combined. An updated translation by Elaine Terranova has been selected. The
lead actors are costumed in modern clothing, while the chorus wears Greek-inspired clothing.
"It's a counterbalance," Armstrong said. "It gives students a chance to see another kind of theater."
—Edited by Lauren Beatty
The chorus is a part of the Greek theater tradition. In Iphigenia, the chorus is played by five women who represent femininity and the emotion of the populous.
The chorus also wears masks, a convention from classical Greek theater. The masks limit facial expressions actors can make, so other methods are used to demonstrate emotions.
The emotion in Iphigenia leans toward the tragic, a departure from the University Theatre's season of comedies on the main stage series.
"You have to use your entire body," Burns said.
The Greek tragedy by Euripides, translated by Elaine Terranova, will be performed on Oct. 24, 25, 26, 29, 30, 31 and Nov. 1 and 2 and at 2:30 p.m. on Oct. 27 at the Inge Theatre at 7:30 p.m.
Iphigenia in Aulis
Tickets are $12 for the public, $6 for students and $11 for senior citizens.
The play is directed by Sara K. Armstrong, with scenic design by Emily Elder and lighting design by Brian Diltz.

Man fails to impress
(3)
um. However, Brown's attempt to impress the hot chick working out next to him failed miserably, ending with Brown getting a hernia instead.
By Joe Stephenson Kansan satire writer
Last Thursday afternoon, Pete Brown, Lexington, Ky., junior, was working out at Robinson Gymnasium, as he does about four times every week. This particular workout, however, taught Brown a life lesson he will never forget — don't try to lift more than you can to impress a woman, even if she is particularly hot.
"If she had not walked into the weight room I never would have even thought about attempting to lift that much weight," he said. "But this girl was hot, I mean hot. She had a pretty face and this amazing athletic body, and she had her hair pulled back in this ponytail, which for some reason just made her look really hot. Oh, and man, her skin was so damn smooth. Plus, she was wearing SpanDEX."
"You know, it started out like any other workout," Brown said. "I was just in there, you know, pushing some steel, trying to bulk up. I'd been in there about 15 minutes when this unbelievably hot chick walks in. Well, she starts working out right next to me, and so I had to add to my stack because I just know she was checking me out to see just how strong I was."
Any attempt to impress the attractive woman was negated by Brown dropping the barbell and assuming the fetal position on the floor out of sheer pain.
Brown said he normally did not push himself too hard at the gym, but this was a special exception.
Brown's problems began when he tried to lift a barbell with 30 more pounds on it than he usually lifts. He got in one complete, excruciating curl before giving himself a hernia.
"Man that was some wicked bad pain, and right by my penis too," he said.
After falling to the floor he was helped up by Kelly Trooph, Manhattan sophomore, who Brown described as "not bad looking." Trooph described the scene after Brown dropped his
"Everyone was looking at him because he was doubled over breathing like he was trying hard not to cry. I helped him up, and he tried to act all macho about it, but his face was a weird pale white color and there were tears welling up in his eyes."
"I had to act cool, like the pain was no big deal, because that nurse was truly hot, and man, I could not let her think I was a wuss."
Brown then drove himself to the hospital where he waited for five hours to be examined. He could have gotten in sooner, but kept telling the admissions nurse that he was not in much pain.
barbell.
"This one time I was doing some leg presses
This experience was not the first time that Brown has ended up making a fool of himself while triving to impress a woman at the gym.
and this really, really hot chick starts stretching out right next to me, and well, I overdid it. While doing one of the presses I let out a really loud fart. Man, that was bad. I couldn't even pretend like it was just a noise I made while shifting around on the vinyl seat, I mean, it was bad."
As for the woman Brown was trying to impress at the gym, he has no idea who she was—and has no plans to contact her.
Brown's doctor said that Brown's hernia was not life-threatening, but did need surgery. He expected Brown to make a full recovery.
"I don't know if I'd really want to talk to her," he said. "That was just a deal where I wanted that chick to think I was stronger than I really am. I wasn't planning on talking to her or anything. I just like chicks to think I am really buff."
Bush challenges Hussein to deul
By Henry C. Jackson
Kansan satire writer
WASHINGTON — As a result of mounting pressure from Saddam Hussein's challenge to a duel in the desert, President George W. Bush responded with a challenge of his own last night at a press conference that was not televised. Network officials said they thought the latest episode of Will and Grace was more important than international news.
"I challenge any Iraqi, Saddam or any of the others, to a World Wrestling Federation-style wrestling match," Bush said, as crickets chirped audibly. "I'll take that chemical weapon-hiding
Bush made his response at the press conference.
jabroni, and whoop his candy butt."
Bush's plan calls for a WWF-style ring to be built in a neutral location and the hiring of a special guest referee, whom Bush has not yet named. On the list of candidates is the ghost of Mao Zedong, who, as far as international politics go, is "neither here nor there," a source close to Bush said.
"You can't figure him out, so how could they accuse us of not being fair?" the government source said. "He's a Commie, which makes him hate our capitalist rears, and none too pleased with religious fundamentalists or loopy dictators. I'd wager."
Esteemed comedian Gallagher is also being considered for the guest referee slots.
"He's so crazy, he can't be unfair." a Tongue In
Mouth
Beak source said. Former presidential candidate Ross Perot is another possible candidate for a referee, purportedly because he thinks everyone is out to get him. International "film" star Jenna Jameson is the final contender because "She's hot. With a capital H."
Iraqi response to Bush's press conference was positive; Arab television station Al-Jazeera quoted Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein as saying he would "open a can of whoop ass," on Bush. Hussein finished his statement by asking Bush if he "smelled what the desot was cooking."
Bush said pre-fight competitors for the event could include luminaries such as Colin Powell, former attorney general Janet Reno for "T and A," and Donald Rumsfeld, the pansy of what Bush called his Capitol Gang.
Crawler takes first baby steps
By Brandon Gay Kansan satire writer
The crawler said its first words across CNN's screen after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks and now the crawler is beginning to walk.
The CNN news crawler, the device that scrolls headlines across the bottom of the screen on CNN, is growing up.
"When it started to walk, we were all very excited," CNN anchor Judy Woodruff said. "But, now it's really growing up and that's sad. Soon it will be leaving CNN and going off and starting a news network on its own."
Woodruff said she thought the news ticker might make some bad decisions in the future but there wasn't much she could do about it.
"It's going to date the Fox News stock ticker. I just know it," Woodruff said. "I don't like that thing. It's not good enough for our baby! I hate the way it just goes around apathetically flashing huge losses of real people's money. But when tickers grow up, they just won't listen to anchors anymore."
As young as the news ticker is, it's already beginning to experiment with alcohol, according to Woodruff. Last Saturday it got drunk and scrolled across the bottom of the screen: "The stupider Wolf Blitzter talks, the longer he sounds... California considers lowering legal drinking age. Whoo hoo!...This just in: Larry King is a big dork..."
There was speculation the ticker was drunk again when it reported the Anaheim Angels made it to the World Series. CNN insists it was sober and that the Angels actually did make it to the World Series.

Rocker dies in tight T-shirt
Quinn Finn, a self-described indie-rock superstar and post-modern guitarist, suffocated to death yesterday in a tight, yellow jem and the Hologram's T-shirt. Finn, Seattle, Ohio, senior, was last seen rocking out with Thomas Dolby in his apartment.
The T-shirt, recently purchased from the Nevada Swapping Emporium, was two-and-a-half sizes too small for Finn, yet "wickedly attractive" according to Finn's sometimes ex-girlfriend Muffie Kong, Taipei, Taiwan, junior.
"Quinn told me he thought that shirt was metaphorically triumphant," Kong said. "I didn't know what he meant exactly, but it matched his Pumas perfectly."

'Autograph' lacking author's signature
By Henry C. Jackson
cjackson@kansan.com
Jayplay writer
Zadie Smith's outstanding first novel, White Teeth, served notice to the literary world. "Here is a new, fresh voice." The multi-layered tale of families in London seemed to scream,"Take notice."
And the literary world did. White Teeth was widely lauded by critics, became a bestseller both in Smith's native England and in the United States, and won numerous awards, including England's prestigious Whitbread First Novel Award. As a result, expectations were perhaps unfairly inflated for Smith's second novel. The Autograph Man, released Oct. 1, is a novel that has bright flashes but ultimately dims in the self-created shadow of White Teeth.
Alex-Li Tandem is an autograph man a collector of famous and infamous signatures. He is not like the children who wait patiently after basketball games for a glimpse of their heroes; at 27 years of age, autograph collecting is Alex's career. As such an odd vocation might suggest, Alex is a beleaguered protagonist: he's drug-addled (the novel starts as he awakens from a three day acid-induced bender), he's confused by his love life and he can't seem to decide whether he's Jewish or Atheist. He's also troubled since childhood by the death of his father, Li-Jin, and his failure to procure the autograph of '40s film star Kitty Alexander. Alex's quest to satisfy both of these seemingly unrelated needs of obtaining the autograph and coming to grips with his father's death is the engine that pulls The Autograph Man along.
Like White Teeth, The Autograph Man is a mosaic of characters — a product of Smith's inestimable imagination and the diverse London she has again chosen for her setting. There's one of Alex's best friends, Adam, a black, dreadlocked Jew who seeks enlightenment in a haze of bong smoke and may be the book's most endearing character. Rubinfine is a childhood friend and Alex's rabbi, who waits outside the stoop of Alex's apartment every morning flanked by two rabbi attendants and making Alex feel bad about his life. Alex's other best friend is Joseph, a tiny-voiced insurance salesman, jealous of Alex's laissez-faire lifestyle. And these are just the major players.
Unlike White Teeth, Smith is guilty of underdevelopment. More often than not, the reader is left wondering what happened to characters. Li-Jin's a huge part of the first chapter (probably the book's most poignant)

but really isn't mentioned all that much afterward. Esther, Alex's girlfriend, is really nothing more than a doleful, weak forgiver of Alex's frequent and disastrous indiscretions. Other characters, such as Rubinfine and Joseph, get only cursory development as if part of their personal histories were left on the cutting room floor in the movie of Alex's life.
Alex's quest for Kitty Alexander's autograph — which has compelled him to write letters once a week to her since he was a teenager — is what all the character development appears to be sacrificed for. As Alex travels from London to New York in search of his elusive film star, we learn just how unhappy he is. After realizing he knows the words to the song "Prehistoric Man," for instance, he thinks "With this space in my brain ... I could have learnt Hebrew. I could have been somebody." Smith peppers Alex's travails with extremely witty writing — at one point a confused Alex begins to feel more comfortable, like the "27th minute of a French film, the point at which he usually begins to have some hazy idea of what was going on."
Smith's wink-and-smile writing style can only get her so far, however. The Autograph Man has a lot of charm, but lacks the bite of White Teeth. There's a lack of greater purpose in Alex's mission. Smith's message — a commentary on fame, religion, death and loss — comes out a bit unfocused in the end. If she is the next great writer as some many have been inclined to indicate (and there are certainly tantalizing glimpses of what Smith has to offer in Man), she'll need to address these shortcomings in her writing. Her style is developed. Smith is as sassy and intelligent as ever. She's just not not found her focus yet.

Columnist hops into Hef's world
SEX
While some little girls dream about growing up to be princesses or brides, I grew up wanting to be a bunny. But I didn't want to be like the timid, fuzzy creatures found hopping around in fields. I was interested in the life and habitat of another kind of bunny — the Playboy bunny.
I grew up reading Playboy magazine, and from an early age I was fascinated with Hef's decadent world. And I didn't just read the articles.
I sometimes dreamed of my photo shoot, how beautiful I would feel and how sexy the pictures would be. Imagine how irritated I was when I got older and looked almost nothing like what was featured in the magazine's pages.
Meghan Bainum mbainum@kansan.com
Whereas Playboy's girls were tan, I was white. Really, really white. And my breasts, perky but small, weren't quite as prominent as the pairs usually on display Nowhere near as prominent, actually. And then there were the glasses, freckles and out-of-control short, black hair; I finally faced the truth that I was more book worm than nudie bunny — more at home in the library than in the Mansion.
Never one to give up, I decided I would write my way into the magazine. When Playboy.com called to say it was doing a feature profile on me I was excited. When Playboy.com e-mailed back and asked me to pose for the profile I was ecstatic. I did it I wrote my way in.
The euphoria lasted until I remembered that it was my same small, white dorky self who was going to be naked in the pictures. When Playboy.com called me to confirm the arrangements, I asked if they had seen a picture of me and knew what they were getting into, trying to make her realize what she saw in my picture was what Playboy.com was going to get.
The woman on the phone laughed and
MORE MEGHAN
Check Meghan out Oct.28 on Playboy.com. She'll also be in the Feburary print edition of Playboy magazine. Yeah, she's excited too.
told me that, as long as I got a manicure and a pedicure, everything would be perfect.
The magazine would even fly me up to Chicago and put me up in a ritzy hotel.
When I sheepishly arrived at Playboy's impressive building, not only were people nice, but they actually dug the white skin, tattoos, nerdy glasses and messy hair.
Instead of being turned away into the cold Chicago day, I spent my time goofing around in front of a camera like the naked nerd I was, proud to show sexiness comes in all shapes, sizes and colors of skin.
I was more worried about tripping in my spike heels than about making the naked grade. I felt confident, sexy and alive while being photographed, just like all princesses, brides and bunnies should.
After all, I wrote my way in.
Cover under there with underwear
The most basic element of an outfit is what lies underneath, the part not everyone sees, the most exciting part.
FASHION
A woman's bra and panties say more about her style than what meets the eye. Bikini cut, thong, push-up, lace, flowers, animal print: all are variations of what we choose to decorate our breasts and bottom.
During fall break, my mom and I made our customary trip to Victoria's Secret where I was immersed in the complicated world of lingerie couture. As I skimmed the racks in the pink haven, I realized that bra and underwear trends had taken a new, boyish turn in the girliest area of fashion.
Victoria's Secret has carried a ruffletrimmed girlshort and the lace-trimmed boyshort for the past year, said Noel Pittman, manager at the Country Club Plaza store in Kansas City, Mo. As the Victoria's Secret Web site says, "the season's newest silhouette" is a flirtatious, low-cut version of the brief. There will be no buttfloss in these parts, ladies and gentlemen. The shorts are full coverage. But before you have visions of the not-so-sexy, prethong era, take my word for it: these do not lack "ooh-la-la."
Sarah Behunek sbehunek@kansan.com
The tanga, a lacy version of the shorts, is
my personal favorite (think Christina Aguilera's hot pants in the Moulin Rouge video). Some not-quite-Victoria's Secret versions of the tanga do not form to your behind but ruffle out instead, creating a hybrid thong-short. Just a warning: these are for the girlfriends of the world. If you are single and wear a pair of naughty panties like this out, there will be no picking up — they are so sexy the wearer will be jinxed. Most of us are aware of Murphy's Law: the closer it is to laundry day and the less enticing the panty, the more likely one is to find herself with a hot bar find and a pair of cotton, saggy, nasty Jockeys.
Moving up, it is also necessary to address the brassiere or "over-the-shoulder-boulder-holders." Similarly to the laundry-day phenomenon, I am sorry to report that the
bigger the boobs, the harder it is to find a bra that is not only functional, but fashionable. It is all looks down under, but up here the lace cannot hold its own. Similarly, the demi-bra that is known to push up and show off provides no guarantee that nipples are not unintentionally revealed. This is where function and fashion collide. My advice to the well-endowed: just get a flower patterned bra and stick with whatever keeps you from jiggling.
When choosing a bra and panty set, be aware of underwear faux pas: panty lines and visible bra straps. The underthings fashion industry revolves around avoiding these tacky mistakes which are easy to fix and take the form of strapless and thong. Enough said. But there is nothing faux pas about loose-knit sweaters and a well-chosen bra this season.
After considering all the dos and don'ts of bra and panty fashion, I left Victoria's Secret with a pink and white striped shopping bag and a satisfied smile on my face. Because, no matter what you opt for, boy-cut briefs, a lacy bra or nothing at all, it is always fun to know that someone, somewhere, might just get a kick out of what you wear under there.
Duke senior posts fliers to seek pals
By Becky Young The Chronicle, the student newspaper of Duke University, via U-Wire
DURHAM, N.C. — It's a well-known phrase around campus — the random "hook-up." Now one Duke University student is taking matters into his own hands in an attempt to make "real' friends.
As of Monday afternoon, Fedoroff whose Instant Messenger name "kOztrConnoisseur" reflects his love for roller coasters had already received seven responses via e-mail and IM from both men and women.
"Iwould never respond to this.I figured it was just for girls," sophomore Jason Wilcox said. "If he's actually serious, I think it's depressing."
Male students — who doubted Fedoroff's method would be copied by others seemed perplexed by the flyer, thinking that appeared to be aimed exclusively at girls.
Luke Fedoroff, a senior hoping to attend law school, spent his Sunday and Monday mornings posting fliers around campus that claim: "I'm not pathetic, I'm efficient."
"I wanted to meet interesting people," he said. Fedoroff explained that his flyer did not merely target girls, but that he was seeking all kinds of friendships, as long as they were based on his four stated interests - intelligence, humor physical attractiveness and open-mindedness.
Others were less receptive to the flyer. "It's a different approach, but frankly I prefer the traditional approach," said Rebecca Rader, a senior. "Go out on a limb and ask a girl out and see how it goes."
"I'm glad I did it,and the initial response has been good," he said.
While many students were not entirely sure how to react to Fedoroff's tactic, some said it was not surprising.
"It's a little weird, but it doesn't surprise me on a campus like this because people are always putting up signs to get attention," junior Sara Miller said.
His flyer, which states "Let's face it, the Duke dating scene sucks," stresses the negative side of the University's social scene.

An alarming occurrence
FIRE
CALL DOWN
False alarms are a frequent disturbance and a familiar practice to many students. More than 70 percent of all false alarms last year were to residence halls, with McCollum leading the pack.

Frequent fire alarms cause problems for students, firefighters
By Michelle Burhenn mburhenn@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
When Ann Heidebrecht picked a residence hall to live in her freshman year, she didn't consider fire alarms.
But after living a year in McCollum Hall, it became an important part of her decision to move to Templin Hall this year, she said.
The McPherson sophomore said the constant fire alarms, most of them false alarms, made her freshman year difficult and unpredictable.
"When it first went off I didn't really know what it was," she said. "After a while it became a standard routine because we had so many of them."
False alarms are frequent at the University of Kansas residence halls, Lawrence-Douglas County Fire and Medical officials said.
Officials said the number of false alarms each year more than 70 percent of all fire calls to residence halls last year had changed the way the fire department reacted to residence hall fire calls and desensitized students to the possible dangers.
During the last school year, Lawrence-Douglas County Fire and Medical responded to 91 total fire calls said Maj. Rich Barr, fire marshal.
Last year, firefighters responded to 27 false alarms at McCollum. Hashinger Hall and Oliver Hall each had eight, the second-most false fire alarms. McCollum has had four false alarms this semester. Residence halls have more false alarms a year than Jayhawker Towers and the scholarship halls, Barr said.
False alarms are often the result of
resident behavior, said Randy Timm; assistant director of student housing in charge of Daisy Hill. False alarms are frequently caused by students irresponsibly using items such as microwave popcorn or pulling alarms.
"If you're pulling a fire alarm then you're meeting with me or another assistant director," he said. "I'm going to ask why because I need to know why I should keep you here."
The case could be forwarded to the Dean of Students Office, he said. The KU Public Safety Office investigates malicious fire pulls as a misdemeanor offense that carries a maximum penalty of $2,400 and no more than a year in jail.
Barr said students who ignored fire alarms were a college-town firefighter's worst nightmare. Barr said he kept in mind the 2000 residence hall fire that killed three students and injured more than 50 at Seton Hall University in South Orange, N.J. Many students went back to sleep after they heard the fire alarm because they thought it was yet another alarm in a string of false alarms.
False fire alarms could also be a danger for the entire community. Deputy Chief Mark Bradford said.
Because of the frequency of false alarms, the fire department treats fire calls from residence halls differently. The number of firefighters who respond has been adjusted, Barrsaid, but the fire
department always has the capacity to respond fully if needed.
"Years ago we'd send the whole parade," he said.
The fire department now sends a fire engine, ladder, ambulance and nine firefighters initially. If there were a fire, there would be an automatic upgrade, he said.
Barr said firefighters were trained to stay focused no matter where the call comes from.
"But I can tell you it's human nature to be affected when you're going to the same place and dealing with the same situation," he said.

Fraternity numbers fluctuate over years
By Todd Rapp
trapp@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
For the past four decades fraternity membership throughout the nation has gone through ups and downs.
The changes come as generations pass through fraternity life. The baby boomers stayed independent of fraternities during the 1960s and 1970s. Early Generation X couldn't get enough fraternity life, and college men moved back toward independence in the 1990s.
Baby boomers generally avoided organizations as part of the anti-establishment era of the 1960s, said Jon Williamson, the executive vice president for the North-American Interfraternity Conference. During that period undergraduate fraternity numbers dropped to about 250,000 nationally.
Williamson also said that during the 1980s a different generation with different values started college, and numbers surged. By the end of the 1980s, undergraduate fraternity men numbered about 400,000.
In the 1990s, fraternities declined 25 percent throughout the decade.
KU fraternities have been affected by low membership. Since 1998, four fraternities, Zeta Beta Tau, Delta Tau Delta, Alpha Kappa Lambda and Alpha Tau Omega, lost their housing, followed by their charters because of low membership. Similar to the national trend, KU's fraternity numbers have fluctuated.
Reasons for lower membership and interest nationally include a loss of focus during the 1980s. Williamson said frater-

Big 12 rivalry to pit bottom-ranked teams

Kansan sportswriter
Every year the winner of the Kansas-Missouri football game gets a drum, a tradition that dates back to 1912 when it was known as the Indian War Drum.
For tomorrow's 111th meeting between the Jayhawks and the Tigers at Fauroft Field in Columbia, Mo., it might be a better idea if the victorious team receives a brick to signify another piece
in the rebuilding projects that are taking place in the Jayhawk and Tiger football programs.
Both Kansas (2-6 overall, 0-3 Big 12 Conference) and Missouri (3-4, 0-3 enter the game with three-game losing streaks and zero Big 12 conference victories.
The winner will move out of the cellar of the North division of the Big 12, but more importantly, bragging rights are at stake in the border war.
"This rivalry for the two teams, it really takes in the team."
doesn't matter what your record is up till now." junior strong safety Zach Dyer said, "It's a huge game for both teams and the alumni at both schools as well."

KU
towards game is shaping up to be an offensive show with Missouri's 11th-ranked and Kansas'
12th-ranked defense in the Big 12
Kansas junior quarterback Bill Whitemore looks to continue to build on his season statistics that have him averaging 243.3 yards per game in total offense including 178 yards passing and 65.3 rushing yards per game.
Last week against Texas A&M,Whittemore carried the load for the offense by totaling 230 of the Jayhawks' 289 offensive yards. That included his first reception of the season of a 16-yard halfback pass from junior Dan Coke.
This will be Whittemore's first experience with the rivalry, but he said he sensed the enthusiasm that surrounds the game when he attended the Kansas-Missouri basketball game last January in Lawrence.
Another Jayhawk that will see his first action against Missouri is second-year freshman running back Clark Green.
So far, Green is the team's second-leading rusher and the Jayhawk's top

Kansas' intelligence insulted
By Justin Henning

Kansan staff writer
Big balls of twine do not a genius make, so says nationally syndicated humor columnist Dave Barry.
A September study by a Lawrencebased company, Morgan Quitno Press, rated all 50 states' intelligence level. Kansas ranked 14th.
In Barry's Sunday column, the survey came under fire.
Kansas rambled The smartest state was Connecticut and New Mexico came in last place.
His home state, Florida, ranked 47th out of the 50 states.
out of the How dare they suggest that Florida is more intelligent than three other states," he said in his Oct. 20 column.
He went on to suggest that Kansas should be ranked as the stupidest state because, not only was Lawrence home to Morgan Quitno Press, but also because Cawker City in north central Kansas, home to of one of the two largest balls of twine in the world, hosts an annual "twine-a-thon" festival.
"We're very excited about the mention." Scott Morgan, president of Morgan Quitno Press, said.
The study only takes into account primary and secondary schooling, not university-level schooling.
A list of 21 factors determined a state's spot on the list.
According to the survey's methodology, its factors are a reflection of commitment to quality education in a safe and well-run environment.
Dick Patterson, principal of Lawrence High School, said he thought the ranking was accurate for Kansas.
"Fourteenth is very good considering the budget we have to operate under," he said.
Despite the University of Kansas not having any effect on the rank, students still have an interest in the ranking.
"I think we should be ranked somewhere around 20th," Dan Bedard, St. Louis junior said.
Morgan said the factors for the test would stay the same for next year's study.
This way, statistics would remain consistent from year-to-year.

Arrest in Maryland ends sniper search
FREDERICK, Md. — One of America's most extraordinary manhunts culminated yesterday in the arrests of an Army veteran and a teenager, asleep at a roadside rest stop—perpetrators authorities believe, of a bloody, three-week sniping spree that left 10 people dead.
Montgomery County State's Attorney Douglas Gansler said state and federal prosecutors would meet this morning to discuss charges against John Allen Muhammad, 41, and 17-year-old John Lee Malvo.
One source, speaking on condition of anonymity, said a gun found in the suspects' car appeared to use. 223-caliber bullets — the fatal calling card in the attacks that began Oct. 2 with the killing of James D. Martin in a grocery store parking lot in Wheaton, Md.
The weapon found in the Chevrolet Caorice was a Bushmaster rifle.
The AR-15 is the civilian form of the M-16 military assault rifle. As a soldier, Muhammad received a Marksmanship Badge with expert rating — the highest of three ratings — in use of the M-16, according to Army records. Police also found a scope and tripod in the car, the official said.
The suspects, it seems, might have been tripped up by their own arrogance; authorities said they received a
call on the task force tip line taking responsibility for the sniper attacks and for something in "Montgomery.
Evidence from a Sept. 21 robbery attempt outside a liquor store in Montgomery, Ala., which killed one employee and wounded another, then led police to Malvo and Muhammad.
Two senior federal law enforcement officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, said investigators hadn't ruled out other accomplices, including some who may have provided vehicles or other support.
Suspected bandit arrested by FBI
NEWARK, N.J. — The FBI arrested a postal worker believed to be the "Puffy Cheek Bandit" responsible for 27 bank robberies in five states since 1998.
Cazzie Williams, 30, of East Orange, was taken into custody Wednesday at a restaurant where he had come to pick up an order.
The Puffy Cheek Bandit got his nickname because he held air in his cheeks as he robbed banks, FBI Special Agent Carrie Brzezinski said.
Williams' face appeared normal yesterday in his first court appearance, during which he was ordered held without bail.
The bandit, who was profiled on the television show America's Most Wanted last year, passed tellers notes threatening to shoot people, and showed what appeared to be a weapon in some robberies, Brzezinski said.
The FBI matched fingerprints from demand notes to Williams' fingerprints from a 1997 misdemeanor arrest, Brzezinski said.
Authorities allege Williams stole more than $100,000 in the robberies which took place between September 1998 and June 2000, except for one in 2001.
Eighteen of the 27 robberies were in New Jersey. The others were in Maryland, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Virginia.
A message left with Williams' public defender was not immediately returned yesterday evening.

City approves parking cuts near greek houses
By Kyle Ramsey
kramsey@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Lawrence city commissioners approved an ordinance at Tuesday's commission meeting that would rezone a southern portion of Edgehill Road as no parking.
CAR 10536
David Dunfield, vice mayor of Lawrence and commission member, said parking issues in the areas surrounding campus were problems the commission had dealt with before.
Cars will no longer be able to park along both sides of Edgehill Road near campus. The Lawrence city commission passed an ordinance yesterday that made about 270 feet on the south side of the road a no-parking zone.
"Throughout the neighborhoods that border campus, parking is an issue," he said. "This just seemed to be a case where we could find, I think, a reasonable compromise."
The cost to enact the ordinance will be relatively low, Dunfield said. He said he expected the signs marking the 270-foot no-parking zone to be the primary cost.
The decision reduces parking space for two fraternity houses and a sorority house located on the road. A parking lot is located near each house, but the space in each is not enough to serve each house's members.
John Allen, president of Phi Delta Theta fraternity, 1621 Edgehill Road, said about 30 of the cars parked along Edgehill Road belonged to men in the fraternity.
Now that parking along the road has been reduced, the nearest alternative is streetside parking along Louisiana Street.
Steven Watts, a resident in the 1600 block of Edgehill Road, asked city commissioners in September to rezone the entire south side of the street.
Watts said his reason for approaching the city on the matter was not personal, but was an issue of neighborhood preservation. He said problems such as roadside litter, reckless driving, and roadside parking congestion had increased since January.
"It's not for me," he said. "It's part of maintaining neighborhoods in a place that once had 20,000 people and now has 100,000 people. I lost as many parking spaces as anybody else."
Parking along the south side of the street became congested at times and blocked Watts' driveway, he said. The stretch of rezoned roadway runs in front of Watts' residence and an adjacent house.
Although the city did not approve rezoning the entire south side of the street, it's a matter Watts would like to see revisited by the city commission.
"I continue to believe we need no parking on the south side of the street," he said.
Members of Phi Delta Theta will wait to see how the no-parking zone affects their parking situation before they seek other alternatives. In the meantime, Allen
said he hoped Watts didn't pursue rezoning the entire south side of Edgebill Road.
Allen said members of Phi Delta Theta and neighboring
greek houses picked up litter along Edgehill Road two to three times every semester.
Edgehill Road, a one-way street that allows traffic to travel
north, is the only street in that area where parking is permitted on both sides.

Students to protest procedures at U.S. Army training school
By Erin Beatty
ebetty@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
While KU students plan a trip to Fort Benning, Ga., to protest the Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation, controversy still remains about the existence of the institution.
The institution, more commonly known as the School of the Americas, is a U.S. Army training
school that teaches Latin American soldiers and military personnel in subjects such as counter-insurgency, infantry tactics and commando operations. According to the school, more than 60,000 members of Latin American militaries have been trained at the SOA since its foundation in 1946.
Thousands of people protest the school each year, blaming deaths and human rights abuses in Latin American countries on
military personnel who have been trained at the SOA. Some protesters refer to the school as the "School of the Assassins."
KU Latin American Solidarity organizer Amanda Cott, Topeka senior, said KU students had joined the protests for at least the past four years. Cott said she was unable to attend this year's protest, but she would support them in Lawrence.
Edward Robarge. Leavenworth graduate student, is a retired Army
colonel with 15 years of experience in Latin America. Robarge was a military intelligence instructor at the school from 1976 to 1978 and believes in the school's effectiveness.
"I and those who taught with me worked hard to ensure that students left with a complete understanding of U.S. policy regarding human rights," Robarge said.
He said he taught his students to win counter insurgency battles
with respect instead of with human rights violations.
Cott and other students like Greg Seibel, Lawrence graduate student, believe the SOA should be closed. Seibel will attend his second SOA protest this November.
"It's obvious that they're training people to abuse human rights." Seibel said.
Robareg disagree and said Latin American militaries were abusing human rights long before
"It really is intellectually unjust to blame the U.S. for something that has roots in pre-U.S. involvement in the region and besmirch the reputation of so many that have tried to improve the situation there by teaching correct principles," Robarge said.
Students will leave for the protest Nov.15 and stay until Nov.17.

KANSAN EDITORIAL BOARD
Music companies invade privacy to stop file sharing
The war over copyrighted material on the Internet has raged for years, but it has taken an alarming new turn as the Recording Industry Association of America and other entertainment industry advocates ask for congressional support for what they call, "interdiction."
Some "interdictions," have passed like the ability to put fake files on peer to peer file-sharing applications like Morpheus or KaZaA.
But other, more sinister deterrents were suggested by the record industry, according to a Sept. 27 article on CNN.com ("Record labels seek OK for P2P Sabotage")
The record industry asked for permission to use worms or file-tracking programs so it could actually see where a Web surfers would go or what they would download.
Eventually, the music industry also wanted the ability to terminate services to any people that illegally transport files. In short, these acts constitute a thinly veiled attempt at technological subversion.
It is certain that trading copyrighted files is illegal, but such actions could easily invade personal privacy and clash against anti-hacking laws.
Worldwide music sales have dropped for the first time since the introduction of the compact disc, according to a report by the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry. Many in the music industry blame the Internet for the drop, specifically file sharing programs
like the defunct Napster.
Newer companies like the aforementioned Morpheus or KaZaA rely on an international base or decentralized program structures to avoid being shut down.
These newer networks compounded the problems for the record labels, thus requiring them to take more extreme measures.
Such extreme measures could be baseless, according to a study from Jupiter Media Matrix, a high-tech business consultation company.
JMM denies the role of the Internet in music business's misfortune. The report contended that the decline was merely part of a cyclical course in the music market, and that most companies were looking for revenues from too few titles.
In fact, some of JM M's findings actually pointed toward the Internet having a positive impact on the music industry, by making those already apt to buy music even more so with the greater variety of choices.
The music industry is losing money and the artist's right to intellectual property is very important, but when companies stoop to technological sabotage and spying, then there is a problem.
Music should be supported whenever possible, but when the business begins to infringe on personal rights then, perhaps, it is the time for silence.

PERSPECTIVES
Fear and ignorance prevent normalcy of masturbation
Maggie Koorth/Kansan
E every day, people indulge themselves in activities for gratification.
Watching your favorite television show, playing video games, reading a book, acing a hard midterm, drinking a good margarita with the girls; these are just a few varieties of ways one can enjoy themselves.
GUEST COMMENTARY
Yet one indulgence is easily seen as unsuitable for society; masturbation.
Each of these examples can be considered acceptable in the eye of society.
Perhaps if one can conjure up a checklist of admissible societal characteristics, then one could understand why masturbation is such a taboo topic.
Marla Keown
ominton@kansan.com
GOLDEN COMMUNITY
Somehow, masturbation has fallen on the uncomfortable side.
Generally, society ranks behaviors on how threatening they are towards others.
Drinking into oblivion also sits on the side of uncomfortable, and may even become threatening when it comes to cases of drinking and driving.
Obviously, watching TV or drinking with friends are neither threatening or fearful things. But the degree of each behavior can fall into comfortable or uncomfortable conditions.
Letting a child watch a violent TV show can create detrimental results or at least cause great dispute.
Female masturbation is considered an
It is commonly known that men masturbate, and when discussed, it is hardly looked down upon. Yet for some reason female masturbation is thought of as unthinkable.
One reason for female masturbation's downcast is fear. Fear characterizes social deficiency.
There are several reasons why female masturbation is feared in our society.
The first is self-image. Every day people try to portray an ideal image of themselves. Most try to conform to the norm, finding it easier to be part of the masses than to be set as an outcast.
In our society, an ideal woman is not one who openly talks of their sexual escapades, including those with herself.
The second is confidence. Who are the people who raise their hands in class to answer questions? Those who are confident that their responses are correct.
Most females don't know how to
pleasure themselves, so why discuss the little known idea of masturbation.
The third reason is privacy. One's sexual self is thought to be a topic not fit for discussion.
The number of partners, sexual preferences, positions and masturbation are all subjects that have been looked down upon in social conversation.
Clearly, the only reason why masturbation is deemed unsuitable in our society is because people are afraid to talk about it and are ignorant of the facts.
Why allow such a transient thing as fear to dominate the concepts of social norm?
If children were in charge of a world like this, darkness would be outlawed.
Learn to understand what you fear and overcome it. Don't let the unknown control your happiness.
If you don't know how to play chess, learn: if you can't figure out how to make yourself orgasm try different "out of the norm" methods. Finally don't let masturbation be a "hush-hush" topic.
Talk about masturbation with a close friend and work your way up to a group of friends.
By overcoming one's personal fears, we can surmount society's fears and slowly change the idea of social norm.

It's hard to think about consuming and harder still to feel satisfied. We all want more, but the reality is sometimes we can barely hang on to what we have.
In the end, the fact remains that no one is irreplaceable, and that means we need to be pliable and willing to accept what

Commission rejects Wal-Mart rezoning proposal
By Lindsey Hodel
Ihodei@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The Lawrence planning commission decided in a 6-5 vote Wednesday night to recommend a denial of Wal-Mart's proposal for a new supercenter at Sixth and Wakarusa streets.
The Lawrence city commission will make the final decision no earlier than Nov.12 on the corporation's desire to bring a second store to Lawrence.
Wal-Mart's proposed plan includes the construction of a supercenter store; a larger Wal-Mart with a grocery store.
The current zoning of the site
allows for small-scale development but not for a large commercial retail outlet like Wal-Mart.
The planning commission discussed several issues concerning the rezoning of the area to accommodate a new Wal-Mart; the proximity to Free State High School; the traffic congestion the new store could cause; and the current zoning of the area as a small-scale retail space.
The planning commission's recommendation was based on the fact that the development would not fit the planning commission's Horizon 2020 plan, a plan outlining future commercial development in Lawrence, Bryan Dyer, a city planner handling the project, said.
Dyer said the large size of the development would negatively affect the area.
"The intensity of the development and the amount of traffic that would be created is too much for that intersection," Dversaid.
But John Bisio, Wal-Mart community affairs manager for the Midwest, said the company would still move forward with the second store plan by presenting it to the city commission.
"We still feel the plan has much merit when you take the facts into account," he said. "Lawrence's population has grown and in other cities similar
to Lawrence, we operate more than one store to serve the customers better."
Bisio also said Wal-Mart was taking the Lawrence community into consideration.
Sue Pine, vice chairwoman of the planning commission, voted in favor of Wal-Mart's proposal for its new store.
"Our plans call for an aesthetically pleasing store with lots of landscaping," he said. "We realize that Lawrence is a unique place, and I think we doing a good job at being sensitive to the needs of the community."
She said the commission was responsible for looking at zoning issues and land use issues for the
site, and not at whether a particular company should build there.
But Shaun Morrell, KU student representative for the planning commission, voted against Wal-Mart's proposal. Morrell's vote counts as a symbolic vote and is not included in the final decision.
"Wal-Mart wanted to gobble up all the retail space in that location," he said. "They could have built a smaller store, but they insisted on proposing a supercenter. Why they wouldn't scale it down is beyond me."

nities had been founded on brotherhood, academies and giving to the community.
A lot of students came to campus with the goal of graduating with high honors, he said. Fraternities lacked an academic focus.
Linda Schwartzkopf, director of greek affairs at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, said fraternities suffered from an unfair image problem.
When a fraternity chapter on the east coast is accused of hazing, Schwartzkopf said, everyone thinks the local chapter of the same fraternity
permits hazing.
She said sororities had a nurturing image, and their numbers had steadily increased.She attributed this to the emphasis sororites placed on recruitment.
KU sorority membership has consistently increased since 1997, said Angie Carr, coordinator for fraternity and sorority life at KU.
Meanwhile, the numbers are again shifting in favor of fraternities.
Williamson said membership had begun to increase by 2 to 3 percent nationally since 1999. Again, KU follows the trend.

receiver. Last week against Texas A&M, Green had a career best five receptions and 62 receiving vards.
Even with the success of Green, he only had 10 rushing attempts against the Aggies in a game in which junior running back Reggie Duncan did not play
Kansas coach Mark Mangino said he was working hard to get his running backs more carries and to refine the receiver's routes to take a load off Whittemore who has carried the ball 48 times during the last two weeks against Colorado and Texas A&M.
"We are getting a little better each week but our strides are not coming
Improvement also cannot come fast enough for the Kansas pass defense which allowed 428 passing yards last week to Texas A&M.
Gage presents problems for Kansas as he stands 6 feet 4 inches tall and needs only three receptions and 87 yards to break the Big 12 career records.
This is bad news for the Jayhawks in their preparations to face the Tigers' freshman quarterback Brad Smith and AllAmerican candidate senior wide receiver Justin Gage.
"He's unbelievable." Mangino said. "As a coach, you can't help but admire his athleticism, his grace and great hands, his ability to run routes and get to the ball. It will be a good challenge for us
"We are getting a little better each week but our strides are not coming fast enough."

and we're ready to meet that challenge."
As extra motivation for Kansas, Missouri has been established as a 21 1/2 point favorite over the Jayhawks.
Mangino said he enjoyed being the underdog, but the intensity of the rivalry is enough to raise the emotions of the team.

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN = 7A
Trophy gives rivals new reason to fight
By Kelly McNearney
kmcnearney@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Kansas and Missouri now have another incentive to battle.
Midwest Ford Dealers is sponsoring a Border War Series that will track Kansas and Missouri's head-to-head competition in 17 sports. The team with the most points at the end of the academic year will take home the Traveling Border War cup.

those Tigers," Bohl said. "Anytime you can twist the Tiger's tail, do it."
Al Bohl, Kansas athletics director, and Mike Alden, Missouri athletics director, unveiled the series in a Wednesday news conference at Union Station in Kansas City, Mo. Saturday's football game between the Jayhawks and Tigers in Columbia, Mo., will be included in the competition.

"This Saturday I hope we can go over to Columbia and beat
Al Bohl, Kansas athletics director, holds up the trophy that will be awarded to the winning school in the Border War Series.
Bohl said the series was positive for both universities because it would increase awareness about sports other than basketball and football.
Mario Moccia, Missouri associate athletics director for external operations, agreed the series was important for sports that received less attention.
"Everybody knows the basketball games and the football games, but there are a lot of other sports that don't draw the publicity or crowd support," Moccia said. "Theoretically, the whole series could hinge on a softball or volleyball game."
Bohl and Moccia said the series would bring a continuing source of revenue to both universities as well as the opportunity
for a future increase in revenue.
"Midwest Ford Dealers is the current sponsor, but we have the opportunity to add additional sponsors to the series," Bohl said.
He said the sponsorship provided each school with revenue
in the low six figures.
The series consists of 59 available points for regular season match-ups, with extra points available for postseason play.

Men's golfers tee off in three-day tournament
After a two-week hiatus, the Kansas men's golf team is set to return to competition following back-to-back top-six finishes.
The Jayhawks will tie off today at the Nelson-Stanford Invitational in Palo Alto, Calif. Coach Ross Randall said he was looking for a win this weekend and finding out who his top players are.
By Ryan Greene
"We have a few tournaments in the spring where we can bring our normal five starters and an
individual as well," Randall said. "We're not going to use qualifying anymore to see who plays each tournament, we'll just use the five guys who are playing the best."
Because the tournament takes place during the weekend, one round will be played today, tomorrow and Sunday, instead of two rounds in one day. Tee time is 8 a.m. for all three days.
The Kansas lineup will include senior Chris Marshall, junior Tyler Hall, sophomores Andrew Price and Kevin Ward and freshman Ryan Rainer.
Marshall is looking toward this weekend as an opportunity
to fulfill a goal that he set for himself at the start of the season, as well as continue on his new approach to playing.

Kansan Sportswriter
"My goal was just to get one or two wins before the fall concluded," Marshall said. "I've tried to change my mentality and try harder to win, but at the same time harder not to win if that makes any sense."
Tyler Hall paced the Jayhawks at the tournament last year as they tied for fifth as team, and he thinks that the team is where it needs to be mentally heading into this year's competition.
"Individually, I played here
once and I was runner up. It was my best finish last year," Hall said. "Individually I have a really good vibe going into this. I think our team right now is as good as we've looked all year, and everyone's clicking so the expectations are pretty high."
Randall said the tournament would be good for Kansas.
"I think consistency has been big. We're using a lot of young players and they're getting used to the competition," he said. "We just need a few more tournaments. It's a good, strong field, so hopefully we can play well."

Rowing team gearing up for races
Despite the recent rains, the Kansas women's rowing team has been working hard in preparation for this weekend's race.
The team will race Sunday in the Head of the Iowa Regatta in Iowa City, Iowa.
"We are getting faster at every race," junior Jen Van Ruyen said. "And getting closer to beating teams who have beaten us before."
Van Ruyven also said the weather caused the team to practice inside more on the ergometer, the indoor rowing machine, than they had planned this week.
She said the ergometer provided a more individual workout,
and numbers in front of them on a screen give the girls a good idea of their progress.
Van Ruyven said the team's goal this weekend was to beat Iowa because they beat Kansas by a couple of seconds two weeks ago at Notre Dame.
Overall, the team seems to be showing great improvements, Van Ruyven said. Their performance at Notre Dame improved from being beaten by 39 seconds with four rowers in the boat, to only nine seconds with eight rowers.
"We were one second away from a medal at that race," she said. "We were fourth, and our
first varsity four has a good chance of medaling this weekend."
Van Ruyen said an extensive work out, six days a week had gotten the team in shape for to race.
"We run sprints at the stadium on the track on Monday mornings, and stairs there on Wednesday mornings," she said.
They also work out on weights twice a week and on the water four times a week.
To get in the top boats for races, the rowers accumulate points through strong workouts and having fast race times during practices on the water.

Mizzou QB biggest obstacle
Nationally ranked newcomer could halt Kansas victory
By Doyle Murphy

Kansan sportswriter
It's not for a bowl game. It's not for a Big 12 Conference title. Heck, it's not even for a winning record. But when Kansas plays Missouri at 1 p.m. tomorrow, the Big 12's
only teams without a conference win will show just how much second-to-last place bragging rights mean.
If matching conference records and proximity of the campuses aren't enough to get Tigers and Jayhawks at each other's throats, Missouri has a chance to even the all-time series at 51-51-9 at its homecoming.
Kansas senior center Greg Nicks made no pretenues about the rivalry being just another game. The Maize native said the game was always one he looked forward to, regardless of either team's record.
"No doubt we'd like to have more wins than we have right now," Nicks told reporters. "But a win at Missouri would be huge. I'd love to get their place and stick it to them."
One of Kansas' biggest obstacles in that endeavor is a newcomer to the rivalry. Freshman quarterback Brad Smith is seventh in the nation in total offense at 301.9 yards per game. His 2,113 yards this season is already the fifth best total in Missouri history with five games left.
Kansas coach Mark Mangino told
reporters Smith's strength was almost unheard of at the quarterback position.
"I've seen him do some things on tape that you don't see a lot of quarterbacks do," Mangino said. "He's running down the field and straight-arms a 290-pound defensive tackle that came up to put a hit on him."
Kansas' ability to defend Smith will depend in part on how the Jayhawks handle his favorite receiver, Justin Gage.
An All-Big 12 selection last season, the 6-foot-4. 210-pound senior is only three catches away from Texas receiver Kwame
Cavil's conference record of 174 career receptions. Last week against Texas Tech, Gage caught five passes, two for touchdowns, on his way to 114 receiving yards.
Gage stays in shape during the off season playing for Missouri's basketball team, a fact not lost on Mangino.
"The guy can play the ball in transition. He can take it to the hole, and he's a pretty doggone good football player, too." Mangino said.

Missouri superior all over

University of Missouri
Who would have thought it? Just over a year removed from my hometown of Lawrence and I am appearing in the Kansas newspaper. That is, if by "my hometown." you mean an unthinkable hell, and by "newspaper," you mean someone let a monkey draw on some newsprint with a piece of charcoal.
You know you go to Kansas when an October issue of the student paper has a piece on ex-Jayhawks playing in the NBA and a column on "Roy's boys" going to the Final Four. March is six months away guys, but I guess that is plenty of time to start making excuses about the team's impending second-round choke. I'm just playing with you, Kansas. You know I love ya.
Anyway, as a guest columnist this week, I plan to give both the Kansas and MU student bodies a fair and unbiased prediction for Saturday's game. I have devised a series of six traits to determine the greater team.
History of the Rivalry — Regardless of the overall record in this series, MU owns this game. The Tigers invented the Homecoming game in 1911. Kansas should be happy we even allow them to participate in this glorious event. Advantage:MU
Famous Alumni (non-athletes) When a school has an academic tradition as fine as Kansas', one can only assume a host of celebrities have graced Lawrence with their presence. This list includes famous alums such as Bob Dole and Scott Bakula. Nice try, Jayhawks, but there is no contest here. Bob Dole simply cannot compete with the likes of Brad Pitt, Sheryl Crow and a man you might have seen in a little movie known as Major League. Yeah, that's right: Tom Berenger. Put that in your pipe and smoke it, Bakula. Advantage: MU
Football History — The numbers for the Tigers don't lie: 21 bowl games, eight conference championships and one National Championship in 1960 that was stolen by a cheating team from Lawrence. I can't even imagine how current Kansas students can sleep at night knowing what their beloved team did 40 years ago. Advantage: MU
Signature Cheer — Teddy Roosevelt once proclaimed "Rock Chalk" as the greatest college cheer he had ever heard. First of all, Teddy, you were nothing compared to FDR, and secondly, that cheer doesn't even make sense. It's named after some limestone formation near Lawrence. We have limestone in Missouri too, but we don't make our cheers about it. This one goes to M-I-Z, F-K-U in a close call. Advantage: MU
SEE MISSOURI ON PG 6A
Current NBA Players — Keyon Dooling, Kareem Rush and Anthony Peeler against Drew Gooden, Paul Pierce and Raef LaFrentz in a game of three-onthree? Kansas gets the nod here but only because this further shows the talent with which they have failed. Advantage: KU
Sooners not overlooked
Kansas aims to avenge loss from last year's road match, snap losing streak
By Jason Hwang

Kansan sportswriter
Traditionally, it's not wise to corner a wounded, angry animal. The same could apply to the Kansas volleyball team, which is looking for vengeance.
The Jayhawks (14-5 overall, 5-5 Big 12 Conference) want to snap a three-match losing streak when they travel to Norman, Okla., to face the Oklahoma Sooners (4-14, 2-8) at 7 p.m. tomorrow.
Although the Jayhawks have won eight of their last nine meetings against Oklahoma, that one loss came at OU Fieldhouse last year when the Sooners snapped a six-match losing streak to Kansas by winning the match three games to one. Coach Ray Bechard said that loss was difficult and the team remembers that.
Bechard said 12 of the 14 players from last year were returning to play tomorrow.

"Some of the teams have some physical tools that maybe we don't have,which means we have to compensate and do things that we do well."
"I really do believe that
I really do believe that will make us a little bit more aware of respecting them; where they're at and their program's growth," Bechard said. "I do think that will raise our awareness that it can happen if you don't take care of business."
The Jayhawks have a two-match winning streak against the Sooners. In their last meeting Sept. 21, Kansas swept Oklahoma in three games in Lawrence.
X-rays were performed yesterday on freshman middle blocker Josiane Lima, who left Wednesday's 3-0 loss to Nebraska with an injured right hand. Bechard said there were no broken bones, but that Lima sustained a bad sprain where the right pinkie finger meets the palm at the joint. Bechard said Lima is doubtful for the Oklahoma match.
Bechard said the team had been competing well, but that for his team to move into the top 25 and stay in that elite group, it would take a concentrated effort during each game.
If Lima can not start against Oklahoma, the Jayhawks will use senior middle blocker Kylie Thomas and junior middle blocker Jordan Garrison. Thomas has played in 10 matches, started in one, and averages 1.25 kills per game with a .342 hitting percentage. Garrison has started in six

"Lima is one of our greatest offensive threats, but we have two really great middles that can come in and fill in her spot," said senior defensive specialist Jennifer Kraft. "I don't think we're really worried about it. We are very deep with people off the bench."

Just two weeks away from the Big 12 Conference Tournament, the Kansas women's soccer team heads to Texas this weekend for a tough pair of games.
Friday, the Jayhawks, ranked No. 8 will tangle with the No. 3 team in the nation, the Texas Longhorns, in Austin, Texas. It will not get

of 4-2-1, which puts the team in a threeway tie for third place in the conference. Kansas is coming off a weekend in which they defeated Central Missouri State and Iowa State.
"It was nice to win both games over the weekend," Francis said. "It gives us some confidence going into our big weekend in Texas."
The Longhorns are led offensively by sophomore Kelly McDonald and junior Kati McBain, who have each tallied 24 points. In goal for the Longhorns is junior Darci Carruthers, who has started seven games for Texas allowing only one goal in 549 minutes of play. She splits time with sophomore Alex Gagarin, who has started eight games and has a goals against average of .83. Texas enters the weekend with a 12-2-1 record and a conference mark of 7-0-0.

A look inside the mind of a Tiger fan
I am a Missouri fan.
I am totally stoked about my football team this year. What's not to be excited about? We're 3-4, winning epic battles with Troy State, Ball State and Illinois (three powerhouses). What's even more exciting is our losses. After all, moral victories are just as good, if you ask me.
SPORTS COMMENTARY
I am a Missouri fan.
I temporarily lost control of my bowels when my football team beat Illinois, called my quarterback a prophet, and made plans for the Fiesa Bowl in Tempe, Ariz. Illinois is now 2-5, but I still believe we're the cause.

A good time for me is inner tubing at the Lake of the Ozarks, pointing out to Kansas fans that a Jayhawk isn't a real bird and taking 20 tours of the Anheuser-Busch plant in one day to get drunk off the free samples.
I am a Missouri fan.
I also enjoy playing slots on a dirty river, going to the top of the arch, and making homosexual references to KU's
stupid mascot (Gayhawk! How clever!)
Jam a Missouri fan.
We flock to Faurot Field by the thousands, and after getting teased by the likes of Oklahoma and Nebraska, I claim that my school is just a few breaks away from competing with Miami.
I am saddened that half of my basketball team is missing in action this season, leaving for the likes of San Diego State, New Mexico State and Europe. I now realize that all that's left is the heir to Wal-Mart, a guy with nightmares of Allen Fieldhouse's rim, and some dude named Najeeb.
I am a Missouri fan.
I am proud that such prominent athletes as Justin Gage, "Bad" Brad Smith and Ricky Paulding suit up in the black and gold. I still wonder, if they're really this good and why the hell they ever chose Missouri in the first place. I'll take it and pretend we're a tradition-rich program or something.
I am a Missouri fan.
I am a Missouri fan.
The most loyal of fans dress like drag queens. We harass athletes who could drop us with a backhand. We call ourselves the Antlers, and we'll be asking Santa Claus for a life this upcoming Christmas.
I am a Missouri fan.
I am a Missouri fan.
My favorite pastime includes telling stories of Corby Jones, Doug Smith and other Missouri greats, while bypassing stories of Kirk Farmer, Simeon Haley and the Bob Stull era.
Of all the athletes to attend Missouri over the years, perhaps the best is, sadly,
Tom Berenger, who showed exceptional bunting skills despite bad knees in the Major League flicks of the late '80s.
I am a Missouri fan.
I thought Norm Stewart's signing of prize recruit Matt Rowan in 1998 was huge.
I can count on one fist just how many national championships our school has won in the last quarter century. I can also count on one fist how many national championships our school will win in the next quarter century.
I am a Missouri fan.
I am a Missouri fan.
I hate what hurts — Tony Sands, fifth downs, KU basketball and life. I find chucking bottles a temporary solution to relieve the pain, though it never does go away.
I am a Missouri fan.

Hundreds of pint-sized ghosts, vampires, butterflies and fairy princesses haunted the halls of the University of Kansas Natural History Museum Saturday night.
The museum worked with KU Memorial Unions to put on Dark at the Top of the Hill, a Halloween festival for children.
The annual Halloween event brings local kids and their parents on campus for a fun and educational experience, said Brad Kemp, assistant director of the museum.
the museum "It's a community event," Kemp said. "It gets people who normally wouldn't come to campus to come up here with their kids."
Dark at the Top of the Hill was presented in the Kansas Union and the Natural History Museum. The museum turned off its lights for the event.

The costumed kids shone flashlights
in the darkened building to catch a glimpse of the living and the dead among the museum's collection of creepy critters.
Next door at the Kansas Union, they bowled with pumpkins, listened to scary stories and took turns singing "skaraoke."
More than a thousand people attended the event. Kristen Wheeler, an Emporia senior who works in the public education department of the museum, said the event raised interest in the museum and in science.
"It gives us a chance to really interact with the public and to show them the fun of what we do in the museum," Wheeler said.
Museum workers taught the kids at the event about the scary things on display.
At one table, a woman helped kids make bat masks and answered questions using a mounted skeleton of a bat.

Rock Chalk volunteers raise money for charity

A routine fundraising activity led Havden Geis to a inspiring encounter.
Volunteering at the Brandon Woods Retirement Community Saturday morning Geis met Dorothea, a 101-year-old Lawrence resident.
"She has a mind as bright as a teenager, fully intact," Geis, Dodge City sophomore, said.
He said Dorothea had graduated from the University of Kansas in the mid-1920s, and had lived in Lawrence her entire life.
"She realized the things she has been through, the things she has seen," Geis said.
Geis was one of 150 students who volunteered Saturday morning in the first annual Rock Chalk Fest.
Volunteer events were followed by a fund-raiser at the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St.
The Association of University Residence Halls, the Center for Community Outreach, the Interfraternity Council, the National Pan-Hellenic Council and the Panhellenic Association helped with the event.
Students volunteered at locations including the Community Drop-off Center, the Lawrence Humane Society, the Pelathe Resource Center and the Boys & Girls Club of Lawrence.
More than 100 people attended the Granada fundraiser, which cost $5 for admission and $10 for a T-shirt. The event raised $500 for the House that Greeks Built.
The events were successful and can only get better, said Jennifer Huang, Rock Chalk Revue community service coordinator.
"I think there are a lot of things we can work on, but it was a good start in incorporating organizations outside of the greek community." Huang said. "I think, judging by the success this year, it was a good idea to build on."
Geis said meeting Dorothea motivated him to get more involved with the older people in the community.
"There is so much to learn from the older community," Geis said. "People need to take advantage of those kind of experiences."

The University of Kansas Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center hosted its eighth annual women's conference yesterday in the Kansas Union.
The goals of the conference were to provide information to enhance opportunities for success, to increase awareness of women's issues and to interact with other women, said Kathy Rose-Mockry, Emily Taylor program director and associate director of the Student Development Center.
She said the program was mainly directed toward KU women, but anyone was welcome.
About 20 people attended the conference, which consisted of breakout sessions, a roundtable discussion and a speech by Mary Lou Wright, coowner of the Raven Bookstore, 8 E. Seventh St., in downtown Lawrence.
"It's really irritating to read 'A white man equals success if you do this, this and this,'" Robertson said.
Not all of the attendees were female. Jason Robertson, Kansas City, Kan., senior, said he attended the conference because he was getting a leadership minor and wanted a balanced perspective after reading a number of books that were based on a male perspective.

KANU-FM sets fundraising record with $212,000
The University of Kansas' public radio station, KANU-FM, 91.5, has set a fund-raising record. The station amassed $212,000 in donations and contributions, up $35,000 from its 2001 fall drive.
The station expects this number to go up during the next few weeks because of a mailing sent out six weeks ago that asked for donations. Janet Campbell, the station's general manager and audio reader, said the station was still receiving mail-in donations.
"I think we have a good product," she said. "Our staff does a good job persuading people to give and explaining to them why they should."
Campbell said there were other factors that contributed to the fundraiser's success.
The station just recently expanded its listening area to include Emporia and celebrated its 50th year on the air.
The money collected will be administered by the KU Endowment Association and will be used to cover monetary shortfalls at the station caused by budget cuts.
The station is a charter member of National Public Radio and broadcasts 24 hours a day.Its programming consists of news and classical, jazz, folk, and bluegrass music.

Former V.P. Mondale could run for Senate seat
ST. PAUL, Minn. — Sen. Paul Wellstone's oldest son has urged former Vice President Walter Mondale to step in as his late father's replacement on the Nov. 5 ballot, Democratic leaders said yesterday. One source who has spoken to Mondale said he is likely to accept.
"Based on the family's request to him, it is highly likely he will run," the source said on condition of anonymity. "It would be surprising if the vice president did not run."
wellstone's surviving family members weren't immediately available to comment, the late senator's campaign
staff said.
Minnesota Democrats will meet Wednesday to officially pick the substitute candidate for Wellstone, who died Friday in a plane crash.
If Democrats succeed in drafting Mondale, it will give them a powerhouse candidate for a six-day campaign against Republican Norm Coleman, the former St. Paul mayor who entered the race at the urging of President Bush.
The race had been tight between Coleman and Wellstone and was a top target of Republicans trying to regain control of the Senate.
Gov. Jesse Ventura still hasn't decided whether to appoint a temporary successor who would serve until the election winner is officially certified. If he names someone, it probably will be a Democrat and someone who doesn't plan to run for the office, he said.
WORLD
CABO SAN LUCAS, Mexico—The White House said Saturday it would be not very hard at all to assemble an alliance to confront Saddam Hussein without the United Nations, a clear signal that President Bush's patience with the international organization is reaching its limits.
U.S. says it could confront Iraq without U.N. backing
As France, Russia, Mexico and other allies seek to water down his zero-tolerance approach to Iraq, Bush renewed his call for the U.N. to confront Saddam or stand aside while the United States acts.
"If the U.N. does not pass a resolution which holds him to account and that has consequences, then, as I have said in speech after speech after speech, if the U.N. won't act — if Saddam Hussein won't disarm — we will lead a coalition to disarm him," the president said at the 21-nation Asian-Pacific Economic Community forum
Later, Secretary of State Colin Powell said the prospects for a tough resolution may be slipping away.
"I think we have successfully narrowed down the differences to a few key issues." Powell said.

KU Med research examines birth
By Lindsay Hanson
lhanson@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
What began as an academic collaboration between friends has evolved into the establishment of a research institute at the University of Kansas Medical Center.
Barbara Atkinson, executive dean of the Med Center, announced the launch of the Institute of Maternal-Fetal Biology Aug. 1.
The catalyst for the institute came last May from winning the $4.5 million grant, "Biology at the Maternal-Fetal Interface," for which members of three separate departments came together. Michael Soares, director of the institute and developmental biologist, Joan Hunt, world-renowned specialist in immunology and Kenneth Audus, professor and chair of the department of pharmaceutical chemistry on the Lawrence campus, landed the grant.
Since then, the institute's near-50 investigators in six laboratories have been combining their knowledge to work toward designing therapeutics to promote the health of mothers and babies, as stated in the organization's Web site, IMFB.org.
The project expanded as several other investigators secured grants from the National Institutes of Health as well, creating a pool of $12 million from federal sources.
In addition, Soares said the school had committed to hiring three faculty members to
"A number of disorders lead to premature birth, small babies and other problems that not only occur during pregnancy, but also throughout the life of the child."

establish three new laboratories for the institute. The institute's administrators also want to find financial donors to support the project as well.
Soares said the institute aimed to improve conditions for mothers and babies.
"A number of disorders lead to premature birth, small babies and other problems that not only occur during pregnancy, but also throughout the life of the child." he said.
Audus, director of the institute's Lawrence laboratory on drug transport across the placenta, said his lab focused on finding ways to prevent drugs from crossing the placenta. Audus said he enjoyed working at the new institute.
"For me,it's a great benefit,I get to mix with researchers who are on the clinical side," he said. "Just sharing our ideas, we're able to come up with new approaches."

One in 500 people in the Netherlands have had no contact with Christianity, said Linneweh in his speech last night. Linneweh and his wife will travel to Amsterdam next fall to perform the missionary work.

Once heavily involved in the drug and hippie culture of the 1960s and early 1970s, Kent and Leslie Linneweh are now working as youth pastors in St. Joseph, Mo., and plan to travel as missionaries to the Netherlands in August.
The Linnewehs spoke last night to a group of about 35 people at Calvary Temple Assembly of God, 606 W. 29th St. Terrace, about their past and future and how they planned to help change the lives of others.
"The culture we're going to isn't that dissimilar from our past," Kent said, before launching into a description of Amsterdam.
He said Amsterdam was a "post-modern, post-Christian society" where drugs, pornography and prostitution were legal and rampant, and the government sponsored abortions and euthanasia.
"If you're going to share some light in the world, go to a dark place," Kent said, "and I've got a feeling Amsterdam is pretty dark."
He condemned the country's marketing of Amsterdam's Red Light District as a tourist attraction.

Kent said the Netherlands was one of the most literate countries in the world, though only 0.2 percent of the population had any connection to Christianity.
He said 17 million people lived in an area roughly one-third the size of Kansas, but despite its dense population, there would be only five Christian missionaries in the Netherlands with their arrival.
Temple pastor, said he was glad the Linnewehs had brought their message to his church and extended it to Western Europe. He said it was important the Linnewehs were taking their message to those in the Netherlands who had yet to find Christ and be saved.
Kent said he and Leslie had been "the traditional hippies," drinking, doing drugs and cussing heavily.
The Linneweh have been married for 32 years, though they were briefly divorced and later
He showed a picture of their wedding, with Kent's hair down to his waist and wearing a homemade bright blue jacket. He said they drank and were big into drugs, but around 1974 his band broke up, he cut his hair, got a 9-to-5 job and began living a more traditional life.
"I'm thankful that there are people who are concerned and have a heart for God to go into the ministry and bring people to know Christ."

remarried. Kent said he was not saved until he was 32, after Leslie had prayed for seven years for him to be saved. Kent said after finding Jesus, he quit drinking and cussing and turned his life around.
Chenaye Sutton, Coweta, Okla., grad student, said the Linnewehs' presentation showed that there was a need for missionaries in Europe.
"I'm thankful that there are people who are concerned and have a heart for God to go into the ministry and bring people to know Christ," she said.
The Linnewehs will leave Thursday to visit the Netherlands for a week, and plan to leave for their mission in August.
They said they had been planning their trip since January and were spending their time now making an itinerary, planning and raising awareness and money for the trip.
Once there, they said they would work with young people, age 17 to 30, doing street ministering, starting churches and witnessing.
"We're really going to get in there and get our hands dirty," Kent said.

Statehouse project spent tax money unnecessarily
The Kansas legislature added a new 6,000-pound statue of a Kansa Indian a couple of weeks ago to the top of the dome of the State capitol building in Topeka.
According to the Associated Press, the legislature spent about $160,000 of taxpaver money doing it.
The 22-foot bronze statue, named "Ad Astra," after the state motto, was commissioned in 1988 and cost about $1 million to create, though all of this was privately funded. It was then determined that the dome would have to be reinforced to support the weight of the statue.
Thanks to a donation of $500,000 from the Topeka Community Foundation, the state's share of the cost was cut. About $160,000 was then taken from public funds set aside for a much-needed renovation of the capitol building.
This was possible only after Gov. Bill Graves vetoed language in a bill that prohibited spending state money on the project.
In a time when Graves has said he may have to make more cuts in education and social services, it is questionable that the money needed to reinforce the dome should have been taken from state funds, which is taxpayer money.
Rep. Lana Gorden, R-Topeka, even requested that the state attorney general investigate whether Graves acted within his rights when he vetoed only the language prohibiting the spending of state
money on the project.
The capitol's designers had intended that there be a statue on top of the Statehouse. Kansas and Oklahoma are the only states that have an American Indian statue on top of their capitol buildings.
However, when taxes have been raised $252 million and the state has finished the previous fiscal year with $190 million less than expected in revenues, tax-payer money should not have been spent on the project.
The Topeka Capital-Journal reported that Graves allowed state money to be spent on the project even before the Topeka Community Foundation's donation had been made, when the project would have cost considerably more.
Although the money spent on the project came from public money meant for the renovation of the capitol building, it was not needed to keep the building from crumbling to pieces.
The state should make the renovations saving every penny possible, not spend the money on unnecessary projects.
If the statue's supporters had been able to raise $500,000 for the project and had 14 years to plan for this, the placement of the statue could have been delayed another year to raise the rest of the money.

PERSPECTIVES
"Top 25" goal worth the effort benefits will reach all students
I believe the University of Kansas should aspire to become one of the 25 best public universities in America. What does that mean and how do we get there?
"Top 25" means that KU would be considered one of the best public members of the prestigious Association of American Universities.
KU has been a member since 1909, one of 34 public members, including the University of California-Berkeley and North Carolina. There are also 27 private and two Canadian universities in the AAU.
KU CHANCELLOR
Some AAU members are our peers, while others, by virtue of their size or wealth, are in a league of their own. Still, we want always to be perceived as a leading public member of that select group of 63 of the best universities in the United States and Canada.
We're working on the recognition by strengthening programs. Tuition enhancement, the KU First campaign, and a redoubling of our efforts with the Legislature
KU CHANCELLOR
Robert Hemenway opinion@kansan.com
For such a perception to mean anything, it has to be based on inspired teaching, high-quality academic programs, excellent facilities, strong research, sound planning and bright students. KU has all that. What's often been missing is national recognition to match the local reality, plus adequate funding to improve upon our success.
Students at top 25 institutions receive more graduate fellowships and job offers. Alumni and donors are more generous and involved. Government agencies and foundations are more likely to support peerreviewed grant proposals and research projects. The media are more likely to report on your achievements. The general public is more likely to stand up for you when Congress and the Legislature debate the budget.
What makes achieving top 25 status worth the effort? It goes back to the perception of quality and its solid basis in fact. If you're regarded as one of the nation's leading universities — by alumni and donors, by government agencies and foundations, by the media and by the general public — the outcomes are positive and considerable.
These are all pragmatic reasons to become a "top 25" university. They are
outcomes that translate into benefits for individuals, resources for the University, and pride for the state of Kansas, KU students and alumni. But that pride has meaning only if KU fulfills its mission of teaching, research and service.
No single ranking measures top 25 status. Not U.S. News & World Report, not Kiplinger's, not the Fiske Guide or the National Science Foundation, though they are all part of the mix.
Objective comparisons, added together, will eventually indicate where we stand among the nation's best universities. When our goal is achieved, the sun won't shine more brightly on campus, nor will a choir of cherubs burst into song above Mount Oread.
Rising in the rankings is hard work. Staying there is even harder. Setting worthwhile goals helps everyone focus – not just on rankings but on the commitment to excellence that gives meaning to being "top 25." I invite everyone to reach toward that goal.
Most likely, we'll simply nod in appreciation and say that the University is a great place regardless of its ranking. But we will also know something about ourselves, and the discipline and ingenuity that got us there will become part of the culture.
Hemenway is chancellor
Students should provide feedback about tuition increase
Tuition increased by 25.2 percent this year.Based on 30 credit hours for the entire year,this translates into a $600 increase for resident undergraduates and $876 for nonresident undergraduates.
Normally, tuition cannot be pinpointed to certain expenditures within the University budget since it goes into a larger pot, making up one of three major sources of funding for the University with state and private allocations being the other two.
With the state continuously cutting back on allocations, and KU Endowment's KU First campaign already working to bring in more private donations, this leaves tuition as the only source of funding left to increase.
However, with a tuition increase of this size, the Board of Regents specified that it should be used for enhancements to the University and not as a means to fill in holes that the state normally funds.
After talking to students during my weekly office hour on Wescoe Beach in conjunction with the Dean of Students, Richard Johnson, most students said they would like to see a more detailed breakdown of where and how tuition dollars from the increase were being used.
The first step to make this happen is to provide students with information about where tuition increase dollars are being used currently.

year and what the overall investment strategy will be over the next five years with future tuition increases.
There will be more tuition increases planned over the next four years, but the Regents will need to review and approve each one every year, which is why your input is necessary.
There are many benefits students will see in the short term such as increased salaries for GTA's, increased student hourly salaries, general classroom improvements and increased funding to the Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center.
Some benefits will be more long-term and ones that students will not see directly.
Visit the Student Senate Web site, review the tuition information and provide us with feedback. The bottom line: ask yourself if you feel this investment strategy is the best way to enhance the overall quality of your education.

At one session, "Body Betrayal: Woman and Body Image," presented by Heather White of KU Counseling and Psychological Services, participants learned about the dangers of a poor body image.
The attendees could choose which breakout sessions they wanted to attend based on the sessions' topics, which included women's body image, creativity, diversity, relationships and women in the media.
White said this was fairly common.
Two women at the session shared their experiences with eating disorders, diet pills and the fear of gaining weight in college.
"Almost everyone in this room probably has had an eating disorder or knows someone who has." White said.
She said it was important for
females to focus on the positive aspects of their bodies instead of the negative.
"Hold on to what you like and say 'screw it' to what you don't like," White said. "There are very few people who are 100 percent confident with their bodies."

At another table, a boy flashed his flashlight and his plastic vampire fangs at a lizard scurrying in an aquarium. It's called a "frilled dragon," the man behind the table told the crowd of kids.
The event allowed museum workers to kick back and have fun, Wheeler said, who was dressed up as Snow White.
Most of the people who worked at the museum Saturday night donned costumes. Even the exhibits were dressed up. A stuffed polar bear wore a mask, while a giant lizard skeleton breathed red, orange and white paper flames.
At the union, kids played with the lights on. A tiny Brittney Spears look all like belted out "Oops. I Did It Again" on the karaoke machine. Others decorated orange paper pumkins.

The program also provides an opportunity to overcome stereotypes.
Volunteers said they wanted to continue the program even after Williams' class assignment is over.

Kansas could go winless in conference
Just some musings while wonderingwhether Nebraska's "Black Shirts" are salivating at the thought of lining up across from Jonas Weatherbie in two weeks.
Bill Whittemore and Weatherbie as Kansas quarterbacks, that's one "W" for each "W" in the win column.
If Whittemore can't go next week, coach Mark Mangino should give second-year freshman Brian Luke an opportunity. Luke was medically cleared to play last week and has a future with the team, unlike Weatherbie, who's a senior.
Whichever reserve quarterback starts, expect to see a lot of freshman running back Clark Green, who averages 4.1 yards per carry.
You might even see the enigmatic Reggie Duncan get more than four or five carries.
If Missouri, without its starting running back, can rush for 267 yards against Kansas, imagine what kind of numbers Nebraska can put up. If this were a typical 'Husker team, a score of 70-0 wouldn't be far fetched.
It was a Homecoming victory against a hated rival, but tearing down the goal posts after beating a 2-6 team? Yeah, the football players goaded the crowd into the act, but it should take the voice of God to make you celebrate a victory over such a hapless opponent. Unless you're Baylor, that is.
With games left against Kansas State, Nebraska and Oklahoma State (a combined 15-9 overall), Kansas easily could go winless in the Big 12 Conference.
Makes that "KU First" moniker look a little silly, huh?
The Jayhawks dropped so many passes and missed so many tackles Saturday that they looked like the Keystone Kops. Fundamentals are key to a team that isn't as talented as its opponents, but Kansas keeps messing up the little things.
Sophomore kicker Johnny Beck needs some time on the bench. The preseason candidate for the Lou Groza Award has missed nine field goal attempts—including his last eight—and four extra point attempts. If Beck were going to fight through all of his problems, he would have already.
Mangino should give him a game off and then let him kick against Nebraska once the outcome is no longer in doubt so there's no pressure. That, or Mangino should put an ad in the Kansan for open kicker tryouts.
Once again, a mobile quarterback puts up big numbers against Kansas. Freshman Brad Smith totaled 252 yards and three touchdowns Saturday. He joins Iowa State's Seneca Wallace, Bowling Green's Josh Harris and UNLV's Jason Thomas as double-threat signal callers who have torched the Jayhawks.
You can add Nebraska's Jammal Lord to that list in two weeks.
After Saturday's game, Missouri coach Gary Pinkel said he'd coach Whitemore in a minute because of the quarterback's toughness.
Whittimore may be tough, but you can't help but think Pinkel would rather have Smith leading his offense for the next three years.
next three years.
■ Kansas wide receiver Byron Gasaway is finally starting to live up to his potential.
Too bad there are just three games left in his senior season.

Tigers thrash Jayhawks
Kansas in last place; Whittemore injured
By John Domoney

Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas football team would love an opportunity to see its fans tear down the goal posts after a victory.
The Jayhawks already have seen their opponents' fans claim the goal posts in celebration twice this season - the first being when Baylor University broke its 29-game Big 12 Conference losing streak Oct. 5 and again Saturday in Columbia, Mo.
Not only did Missouri fans head for the goal posts, but Tiger players encouraged them and even hung from the crossbar after their 36-12 victory against the Jayhawks to even the Border War series at 51-51-9.
"We really don't like Kansas," Missouri cornerback R.J. Jones said. "We wanted the fans to run out on the field, but I guess they needed some motivation so we ran towards the goal posts first, and then they came."
At halftime, the Jayhawks owned almost every statistic including outgunning the Tigers 270 yards to 158 by running 25 more offensive plays.
Still, the Tigers held a 14-6 lead over the Jayhawks on the heels of poor tackling by the Jayhawks.
"We really don't like Kansas. We wanted the fans to run out on the field, but I guess they needed some motivation so we ran towards the goal posts first, and then they came."
R. J. Jones Missouri cornerback
"Our kids were in position to make tackles and couldn't do it." Kansas coach Mark Mangino said. "We didn't do a good job of tackling. Every time I looked up at the Diamond Vision when they made a big play, we missed a tackle."
One of those big plays was a 62-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Brad Smith to wide receiver Justin Gage in the first quarter.
After halftime, Missouri was successful rushing the ball as well. Running back T.J. Leon, who started in place of injured running back Zack Abron, totaled 105 yards and two touchdowns on 17 carries. The Tigers finished with 267 yards rushing to just 124 for the Jayhawks.
With Missouri ahead 27-12 late in the third quarter after Smith ran untouched for a 75-yard touchdown, junior quarterback Bill Whittemore suffered an injury Mangino has worried about all year because of the wear and tear Whittemore takes running the ball.
As Whittemore ran to his left, he was tackled awkwardly by two Tiger defenders who sent him hobbling to the sideline and later the locker room.
"I know he's a tough kid so when he came off I knew it wasn't a bump or a bruise," said junior strong safety Zach Dyer, who lost the starting quarterback job to Whittemore after the Iowa State game.
After the game Mangino said Whittemore had suffered an injury to the medial collateral ligament in his left knee. Mangino was also asked by reporters if he would consider moving Dyer back to quarterback if Whittemore was not able to play against Kansas State Saturday.

Mizzou deals crucial blows
By Doyle Murphy dmurphy@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
Kansas players pointed to the game against the Missouri as one that could salvage a dismal season. But instead of a tide-changing win, the Jayhawks fell 36-12 to the Tigers and were dealt another crushing blow.
the medial collateral ligament in his left knee.
Junior quarterback Bill Whittemore was knocked out of the game late in the third quarter when Tiger defenders Sean Doyle and Russ Bell tackled him from the front and the back, injuring
Ironically, Whittemore was attempting to slide to avoid injury, Kansas coach Mark Mangino said during a teleconference yesterday.
Whittemore usually absorbs bruising tackles without noticeable side effects, but this time he stayed down. He eventually did get up, and walked off the field unassisted. But the damage had been done.
Whittemore will not practice today, and his status for the rest of the season is unclear.

Kraft sets record in Kansas win

Senior defensive specialist Jennifer Kraft set a Kansas career service aces record in the Jayhawks victory against Oklahoma in Norman, Okla.
Before the Saturday match against Oklahoma, Kraft was tied with Julie Woodruff (1988-91) for the record at 134. Kraft recorded five aces in the match and added 16 digs.
Kansas dodged Oklahoma's upset bid, defeating the Sooners in five games (30-26, 30-19, 21-30, 21-30, 15-11) at OU Fieldhouse and improving its record in five-game matches to 2-0.
The Jayhawks (15-5 overall, 6-5 Big 12 Conference) won the first two games before the Sooners (4-15, 2-9)
won the next two.
"We played very clean volleyball in games one and two," coach Ray Bechard said. "Oklahoma responded, just like we knew they would, but we made plays late in the match when we needed to."
Junior outside hitter Sarah Rome had match-highs in kills (15) and digs (20), registering her sixth double-double. Freshman middle blocker Josiane Lima, who had injured her right pinkie in Wednesday's match, had her seventh double-double this season with 15 kills and 13 digs. Freshman setter Andi Rozum had a career-high 60 assists.
The Jayhawks' next match is at 7 p.m. Wednesday in Ames, Iowa, against Iowa State.

The Kansas women's soccer team traveled to Texas this weekend to tangle with two top-10 teams. The team left Kansas with hopes of an upset but could not muster enough offense as it lost both games in the Lone Star state.
The Jayhawks lost to the third-ranked Texas Longhorns 4-1 on Friday. The Longhorns took a 2-0 lead and topped the Jayhawks 9-3.
Kansas scored in the 46th minute on freshman Jessica Smith's seventh goal of the season to make the score 2-1. Texas scored four minutes later. After another four minutes, sophomore Kelly McDonald added her second goal of the match for the Longhorns to end the scoring.
The team lost again to sixth-ranked Texas A&M 3-1 yesterday. The Aggies came out firing and never let up with 10
"We played very well Friday." Kansas coach Mark Francis said. "Even though we lost I was proud of the effort."
shots on goal in the first half. Kansas had only four shots the entire game.
"Not enough girls showed up to play today," Francis said. "We just did not play well at all and it was very disappointing."
The Aggies took a 2-0 lead midway through the first half on goals from sophomore Linsey Woodard and senior Heather Ragsdale. The Jayhawks cut that lead in half with senior Brooke Jones' first goal of the season, but the Aggies responded by tacking on an insurance goal with about two and a half minutes remaining in the half.
Kansas played its second weekend in a row without freshman goal-scorer Caroline Smith who is suffering from a knee injury. Francis said he was unsure when she would return.
The two losses mark the first winless weekend for the Jayhawks, as their record fell to 11-5-2 and 4-4-1 in the Big 12 Conference. Kansas will travel to Columbia, Mo., Friday to play Missouri.

They come out of nowhere to reach their first World Series, rallying past every team in their way.
kansan.com
Their rookie pitcher wins Game 7.
And the best hitter in the world watches from the losers' dugout, knowing he was once just six outs away from winning the only title he has ever wanted. WORLD SERIES
WORLD SERIES
The Angels became the eighth straight home team to win Game 7 of the World Series. History was on their side from the start and so was an omen — a skywriting plane put a gigantic halo over Edison Field before the first pitch.
John Lackey, Garret Anderson and the Angels made it all come true, beating Barry Bonds and the San Francisco Giants 4-1 last night for the franchise's first championship in 42 years.
Plus the most amazing thing — the Angels didn't even need to rely on their Rally Monkey.
A day after it blew a 5-0 lead in the seventh inning, San Francisco never got close to winning its first title. Bonds went 1-for-3 with a walk to close out one of the most dominant Series performances ever, yet it wasn't enough.
Instead, the highest-scoring Series in history came down to pitching. Behind Lackey and the bullpen, Anaheim had too much to win baseball's first all wild-card matchup.
Lackey wasn't even with the Angels, stuck in Triple-A, when they went 6-14 for the worst start in team history. But with both staffs worn down, the 24-year-old righty gave Anaheim exactly what it needed with five innings of one-run ball.
Anderson, finally due to get the recognition he's always deserved, hit a three-run double off Livan Hernandez in the third for a 4-1 lead. The monkey mascot made a brief, early appearance on the video board to celebrate the moment, then sat back and let the sellout crowd of 44,598 bang their ThunderStix like crazy.
Brendan Donnelly, Francisco Rodriguez and Troy Percival closed it for manager Mike Scioscia's bunch. Percival escaped a two-on, one-out jam for his third save of the Series.
Before this year, the Angels were known mostly for heartbreak. Beloved owner Gene Autry never saw his team get this far before passing away, and it didn't look like these guys would do it, either, especially after finishing 41 games out of first place last season.
And when it was over, Southern California, the land of celluloid stars, had just added a whole teamful of them while Hollywood luminaries Pierce Brosnan and John Travolta watched from the stands.
Somehow, the Angels pulled it together. They led the majors in hitting, overwhelmed the New York Yankees and Minnesota in the AL playoffs and then knocked out Bonds and Co.
Owned by The Walt Disney Co., the Angels are still for sale. Before then, though, they can certainly travel the three miles or so to Disneyland to enjoy this most improbable championship.
Bonds wound up 8-for-17 (.471) with four homers, a.700 on-base percentage and 1.294 slugging percentage.
Anaheim and the Giants combined for a record 85 runs and 21 homers.
The game might have been the last for San Francisco manager Dusty Baker in the Bay. There are growing indications he'll soon leave, possibly to take over the Chicago Cubs or Seattle.
Anderson doubled in the third to make it 4-1,and Angels fans went wild. A little too much, maybe.
David Eckstein made up for a rare baserunning mistake in the first by leading off the third with a single and Darin Erstad also singled. Tim Salmon came up and Hernandez cost himself, hitting the Angels star in the right hand.
No outs, bases loaded. The at-bat of a lifetime for Anderson, drafted by the California Angels in 1990 and out of the postseason until this year.
Unsung despite a stellar career, Anderson got the hit that will put him in highlight reels for a long time sending a line drive into the right-field corner that easily scored all three runners.
As Reggie Sanders tried to corral the ball along the low wall, an Anaheim fan got into the act, bopping the right fielder on the back with a pair of red ThunderStix.
There was no interference called, properly although two security guards were soon standing in the area.

Golfers post strong finish
By Ryan Greene rgreene@kansan.com Kansan sports writer
The Kansas men's golf team finished strong by shooting a final-round 284 finishing in fifth place at the Nelson-Stanford Invitational in Palo Alto, Calif.
The Jayhawks struggled early in the tournament, landing in ninth place in the 18-team field after Friday's first round. The Saturday performance vaulted the team up four spots to fifth. The team ended in a tie with North Carolina State.
"We played well in today's final round," coach Ross Randall said. "Fifth place is not a bad finish, especially in this tournament."
Kansas finished 18 strokes behind Duke, who edged out Washington by seven strokes to
tournament."
Ross Randall Kansas men's golf coach
take home the victory. Leif Olson of Duke won the individual title by beating Washington's Brock Mackenzie and North Carolina State's Justin Walters by one stroke.
After finishing in second at the tournament last year, junior Tyler Hall once again had a strong showing for the Jayhawks, with a final round score of 69 (-2) putting him in a sixth place tie.
"It's just one of those places I feel comfortable at," Hall said. "I just think I focused, I really focused for 54 holes. I only made nine birdies, but I focused myself
on not making any bogeys, and it really paid off."
Senior Chris Marshall was the next Jayhawk on the leader board in a tie for eight place after shooting 70 (-1) in each of his final two rounds. Sophomore Andrew Price shot a 73 (+2) on Sunday finishing in a tie for 37th place. Freshman Ryan Rainer's 72 (+1) in the final round placed him in a 76th place tie. Roundting things out for the Jayhawks was sophomore Kevin Ward, who was over par in all three rounds, including Sunday's 76 (+4) finishing in a tie for 78th place.
"I think that we showed some positives in this weekend's tournament," Randall said. "We did finish in front of quite a few ranked teams."

Nebraska ends road losing streak
Nebraska 38, Texas A&M 31
COLLEGE STATION, Texas The Nebraska Cornhuskers picked a bad place to end their longest road losing streak since 1958. Still, they made it work.
Freshman David Horne scored three of his four touchdowns in the second half as Nebraska finally won on the road, defeating Texas A&M 38-31 Saturday night.
The Cornhuskers (6-3, 2-2 Big 12) rallied from a 17-point third-quarter deficit to snap a five-game road losing streak.
No.7 Texas 21, No.22 Iowa State 10
"Everybody played good today," quarterback Jammal Lord said. "It (Kyle Field) ain't nothing compared to Penn State. Penn State was wild. This was our fourth road game and we're getting better with each one."
Iowa State (6-3, 3-2 Big 12 Conference) has lost two straight since cracking the top 10 for the first time.
contained Seneca Wallace in a 21-10 victory against No.17 Iowa State on Saturday.
Iowa State wasted another opportunity when Nik Moser blocked a Texas punt in the third quarter and took over at the Texas 29. The Cyclones picked up just one first down.
No.14 Kansas State 44, Baylor 10
WACO, Texas — Even with sensational quarterback Ell Roberson struggling, Kansas State had no problem beating Baylor.
Darren Sproles ran for 124 yards and a touchdown, making up for his two fumbles, and the
14th-ranked Wildcats (6-2, 2-2 Big 12) returned an interception and a blocked field goal for touchdowns in a 44-10 win Saturday.
"The interception return may have been the major play; it gave us a little breather," said Kansas State coach Bill Snyder. "Sproles gave a tremendous effort, but put the ball on the ground. And Ell was out of rhythm in the passing game. He just didn't do it today."
Jesse Tetuan's 34-yard interception return for a touchdown with four minutes left in the first half broke a 3-3 tie. It also started a streak of 27 straight points for the Wildcats, including Randy Jordan's 93-yard blocked field goal return.
Roberson ran for 90 yards on 11 carries, but he was just 7-of-17 passing for 54 yards with an interception. He did not play in the fourth quarter.

'Jackass' pulls stunt at theaters
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Jackass has pulled its craziest stunt yet, debuting in first place at the box office.
Jackass: The Movie, the big-screen version of the MTV show whose stars specialized in bizarre and risky behavior, debuted with $22.7 million.
Last weekend's winner, The Ring, slipped to No.2 but raised its gross by adding about 650 more theaters. The movie took in $18.8 million, up $3.8 million from opening weekend, pushing its 10-day total to $39.7 million, according to studio estimates Sunday.
Another fright flick, Ghost Ship, opened in third place with $11.7 million. The movie stars Julianna Margulies and Gabriel Byrne as leaders of a salvage crew that finds a haunted ocean liner.
Debuting in much narrower release was Mark Wahlberg and Tandie Newton's The Truth About Charlie, a remake of the Cary Grant-Audrey Hepburn crime caper Charade.
The Truth About Charlie played in 752 theaters, averaging $3,105 a cinema. Jackass averaged $9,047 in 2,509 theaters. The Ring did $7,137 in 2,634 theaters, and Ghost Ship did $4,203 in 2,787 theaters.
Directed by Jonathan Demme,
The Truth About Charlie opened out of the top 10 with $2.3 million.
The overall box office rose for the seventh straight weekend. The top 12 movies grossed $88 million, up 21 percent from same weekend last year.
Produced for just $5 million, Jackass features Johnny Knoxville, Steve-O and others from the new-defunct MTV show doing
such hazardous or crude acts as roller-skating with bottle rockets attached.
"People love to watch a train wreck. They can't take their eyes off any horrible thing where you can sit on the sidelines and watch without actually putting yourself in jeopardy," said Paul Dergarabedian, president of box-office tracker Exhibitor Relations.
Two-thirds of the movie's audience was male, and young men from 17 to 24 accounted for nearly half the crowds, according to distributor Paramount.
The R-rated movie carried warnings urging viewers not to try the stunts themselves, and Paramount offered to provide guards at theaters that wanted extra security to keep those younger than 17 from sneaking in, said Wayne Lewellen, the studio's head of distribution.

Missouri tailback kept out of game
By David Mitchell
Lawrence.Journal-World
COLUMBIA, Mo. — On a day that the University of Kansas couldn't overcome the loss of injured quarterback Bill Whitte-more, Missouri had no problem replacing its starting tailback.
Missouri junior Zack Abron injured his knee last week and was held out of Saturday's homecoming game at Faurot Field, but the Tigers still rushed for 267 yards in a 36-12 Border War victory.
Senior backup TJ. Leon moved into the starting lineup and rushed for 104 yards and two touchdowns, and freshman quarterback Brad Smith had 117 yards and one TD.
"Our kids were in position to make tackles and couldn't do it," Kansas coach Mark Mangino said. "We didn't do a good job of tackling. Every time I looked up at the Diamond Vision when they made a big play, we missed the tackle."
Jayhawks suffer bad day' Saturday
By Ric Anderson
Topeka Capital-Journal
COLUMBIA, Mo. — When the worst thing that happens to you isn't being blown out by your archrival, or watching the fans of said archrival cart a goalpost right past your locker room, or dooming your program to a seventh consecutive losing season, you know you've had a bad day.
Kansas had a bad day on Saturday.
Not only did the Jayhawks suffer all those indignities in a 16-2 loss to Missouri at Faurot Field, their hopes of rebounding from rock bottom were sledgehammered when quarterback Bill Whittemore left the game after suffering what is believed to be a medial cruciate ligament injury.
"I'm not going to tell you what the injury is, but I can tell you it might be serious," Kansas coach Mark Mangino said. "It could be."
Serious for Whittemore. Dev astating for the Jayhawks.
Comedic mistakes cause Kansas' loss
By Jason Whitlock Kansas City Star
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Never has a college football player appeared more out of place.
Casting Bill Whittemore as Kansas' quarterback is like making James Gandolfini the leading man in Police Academy VI. The Kansas football season is a 12-week comedy tour criss-crossing the Midwest.
Comedy is beneath Tony Soprano. And it's beneath Whitte-
more, too.
The Jayhawks, 2-7 overall and 0-5 in the Big 12, entertained 60,287 Missouri fans at Faurot Field Saturday, turning the Border War into something fit for Def Comedy Jam.
Whittemore played the straight man while his teammates brought the house down with comedic stunts that eventually led to a 36-12 Missouri victory.
The Jayhawks dropped passes, botched extra points, blasted a field-goal attempt into the rear end of a lineman, dived on a punt before it could roll inside the 5, blew 20 yards of field position by failing to field a punt, never tackled Missouri QB Brad Smith and pretty much looked like the worst team in the Big 12.
Knee injury keeps Whittemore down
By Rick Plumlee
The Wichita Eagle
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Kansas linebacker Leo Etienne was standing along the sideline Saturday when he saw the sandwich hit, the awkward way quarterback Bill Whittemore's left knee twisted under him as he went down.
"I just held my breath and thought, 'OK, he'll get up, he always gets up,'" Etienne said.
Not this time.
Whittemore finally took a hit that kept him down and made a bad season and a bad day worse for KU. Sloppy tackling and more kicking woes by Johnny Beck let Missouri off the hook. But the real beating the Jayhawks took in this 36-12 loss was seeing Whittemore go out in the third quarter with a knee injury. Whittemore's father, Bill Whittemore, said his son hurt the medial collateral ligament in his left knee. He didn't know if the ligament was torn.
Fans rush field, tear down posts
Bv Didi Tang
By Didi Tang
Columbia Daily Tribune
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Encouraged by victorious ballplayers on Faurot Field, thousands of fans streamed into the north end zone and pulled down the north goalpost after Missouri defeated archrival Kansas 36-12 in a Homecoming game Saturday.
"No worry. Complete happiness, closest to nirvana," said Sergio Acosta, a university of Missouri-Columbia senior who rode a large piece of the uprights to Harpo's bar in downtown Columbia.
As most people in the announced crowd of 60,287 left Memorial Stadium, several fans charged the field toward the south end zone and were taken into custody by police.

Mangino said. Further tests and observation this week will reveal the severity of the injury.
Conceivably, he could play Saturday against Kansas State University, but Mangino said that decision won't be made until mid-week.
"With Bill, Pd say it's 50-50,
just because Bill is so tough," Mangino said.
"I will say this, if there is any chance of injuring it further, our medical staff will not let him play, and I will not let him play — no matter how tough Bill is," Mangino said.
If Whittemore can't play, Kansas will turn to fifth-year senior Jonas Weatherbie or second-year freshman Brian Luke. Weatherbie, who hasn't taken a
snap all season, completed one-of-six passes, threw an interception and was sacked in the end zone for a safety Saturday. The Kansas offense mustered only 12 yards in Whittemore's absence.
After the game, Missouri's Doyle said Whittemore's early departure was a turning point for the team.
"That really helped us." Doyle said. "We'd been trying to get to him all game, and we finally did. His backup seemed to be a little nervous, so we kept pressure on, and that seemed to affect him as well."
Mangino, who recruited Doyle while he was an assistant at Kansas State, said the tackle was clean, and he did not think Doyle had intentionally injured Whittimore.

sutu. "He's been playing really well on defense."
Preparing for the Wildcats without the aid of Whittemore is a scary proposition for the Jayhawks, but Dyer said the team was still focused even with a 2-7 record, including 0-5 in the conference for the first time since 1998.
"The guys have been real resilient this year, and I'm proud of that." Dyer said. "It's something we haven't seen in the past where we can have some bad things happen and it seems like the next week we come back focused."

More students apply for aid than last year
By Lindsay Hanson
Ihanson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A tough economy and a tuition increase at the University of Kansas have driven more students to ask the government for help with tuition, said a representative of the Office of Student Financial Aid.
As of Saturday, Oct. 26, 2002, the office had received 15,723 Free Applications for Federal Student Aid since Jan. 1, which exceeded the total received by Oct. 26, 2001 by 954 applications, said Stephanie Covington, associate director of the Office of Student Financial Aid.
That doesn't necessarily represent the number of this semester's financial aid recipients, Covington said, which
will not be known until all applications are in at the end of the semester.
Almost half of the student body will secure some type of financial aid this year, Covington said, which is similar to most years.
The office accepts applications on a rolling basis throughout the semester.
"It's not too late to apply for money for the current semester," she said.
Some federal money is competitive, Covington said. Supplemental grants — for undergraduates with exceptional financial need — have limited supply.
Covington said people were applying for federal aid earlier this year than they had last year.

Rising gas prices trouble students
By Nathan Dayani

Higher gasoline prices have forced Kate Danenberg to cut corners.
"It ites out on my grocery money," said Danenberg, Manhattan sophomore. "I have to skimp on other things. I'm a thrifty buyer anyway, but it's getting kind of ridiculous."
According to fuelgaugerreport.com, the AAA's Web site for local and national gasoline prices, the average cost for gasoline in Lawrence is about $1.50 per gallon of regular unleaded gas. But only a month ago, the average cost was $1.39 per gallon; one year ago, the cost was about $1.15 per gallon. The national average is $1.47 per gallon.
Catherine Weaver, assis
tant professor of government, said the looming threat of war with Iraq probably kept gas prices higher than usual. She said past instances of political instability in the Middle East, including the Gulf War and the oil crisis in the '70s, raised gasoline prices.
"There's almost always a direct correlation between political instability and higher gas prices," she said.
Neal Becker, assistant professor of economics, said the demand and price for gasoline was usually lower during the winter because people drove less than in the summer. However, he said Americans were traveling less in the air and more on the road than in previous years, which could
More than 200,000 protesters against the war in Iraq gather on the lawn of Constitutional Gardens in Washington D.C., next to the Vietnam Veterans War Memorial. They listened to Patti Smith, musician and political activist, perform a song Saturday.

Editor's note: Lindsay Hodel, a Kansan reporter, traveled last weekend with a group of KU students to Washington D.C., where they joined 200,000 people protesting possible military action against Iraq.
At noon last Friday, 10 KU students piled into a 15-passenger van to embark on an 1,100-mile cross-country trek to Washington, D.C., for a protest against the possible war against Iraq.
LINDSEY HODEL/KANSAN
The drive was tedious — 20 hours long in fact - yet the students remained generally positive and excited about the march, which was taking place on0 the first anniversary of the passing of the Patriot Act, an act that gives law enforcement agencies more power to track citizens in order to find potential terrorists.
Amanda Slott, Omaha, Neb., junior, and Maggie Beedles, Lawrence senior, lead a chant while marching around the White House. Beedles and Slott helped organize the trip for KU students to attend the protest Saturday.
Conversations during the drive included the reasons of why people had decided to march in the nation's capital, and the goals they strived to accomplish.
"I'm not optimistic enough to believe this march will directly affect policy concerning the war," said Karen Keith, Tulsa senior and an
organizer of the trip. "But I think we can get more people to speak out against the war and change the public's opinion, which can then change government policy."
Concerned Active and Aware Students, a
student group on campus, spearheaded the organization of the KU students' participation in the rally for peace.

Poll says many students undecided about election
By Caleb Nothwehr

Kansan staff writer
A survey of students at six universities showed that a quarter of the student voting population is still undecided in the Kansas gubernatorial race. The "Sunflower Survey," conducted by KU's department of communication studies, stated that the majority of students who had made up their minds would vote for Democratic candidate Kathleen Sebelius.
"Sunflower Survey" question:
The Methods in Political Communication class survey interviewed 363 undergraduate students at six Kansas universities,

"If the gubernatorial election was held today, for whom would you vote?"
Kathleen Sebelius: 42.2% (135)
Tim Shallenberger: 32.5% (104)
Undecided: 24.1% (77)
Dennis Hawver: 0.9% (3)

asking them about their level of political involvement and knowledge of the candidates. KUrepresented most of the undergraduates with 146 students
interviewed.
"The biggest conclusion was that there is still a lot of vote out there to be determined," said Taleyna Morris, third-year graduate student in the class.
The poll also asked 320 students that were likely to vote: "If you could vote today, who would you vote for?" Slightly more than 42 percent of the participants indicated they would vote for Sebelius for governor, while 32.5 percent supported Republican Tim Shallenburger and 24.1 percent remained undecided.

Officials look for KU alumnus thought missing in Colorado
ALAMOSA, Colo. — A search was under way Friday for a man who may be missing in the Great Sand Dunes National Monument, northeast of Alamosa.
The car of Jason Loving, 29, of Arapahoe County, has been in the monument's parking lot since at least Oct. 22, said Carol Sperling, chief of interpretation and visitor services at the monument.
License plates for the car were linked Oct. 24 to a missing persons report filed in Oskaloosa, Kan., where Loving's parents live, Sperling said.
Park rangers, dog teams and search and-rescue squads were working Friday with the Civil Air Patrol to look for Loving.
Sperling said Loving apparently had been at the campground Oct. 19 and this Sunday.
Loving received a bachelor's degree in engineering in 1997 and a master's degree in civil engineering in 2000 from the University of Kansas.

Robinson capital murder trial deliberations begin
OLATHE — Six men and six women began deliberations yesterday in the multiple-murder case against John E. Robinson Sr., 58, a man prosecutors described as placing no value on three women he is accused of killing.
Jurors were sequestered shortly before 11:30 a.m. to begin deliberations to decide if Robinson is guilty of capital murder for the deaths of two women found in 85-gallon barrels on his property in rural Linn County, 60 miles south of Kansas City.
Defense attorneys never admitted Robinson's guilt, but suggested that others may have been involved, citing the size of the barrels and complexity of the means used to conceal the crimes.
If convicted of capital murder, Robinson's trial moves to the sentencing phase, where the defense plans to present evidence that Robinson suffers from mental disease, including a bipolar mood disorder, characterized by pronounced mood swings.

University of Arizona student shoots three people, himself
TUCSON, Ariz. —A student flunking out of nursing school opened fire in a class at the University of Arizona on Monday, killing two professors and a third person before apparently killing himself, officials said.
The gunman was identified by university Vice Provost Elizabeth Irvin as Robert S. Flores, who had failed a pediatric nursing class and was struggling in a critical care class.
A university spokeswoman said the victims included two female professors. Police did not identify the victims, say how they died or describe their relationship to Flores.
The third victim was found by police later in another part of the building.
Flores, a Gulf War veteran, worked at the Southern Arizona Veterans Administration Health Care System as a licensed practical nurse, and was studying to become a registered nurse.

Four Guantanamo detainees pose no threat after release
KABUL, Afghanistan — The United States has released four al-Qaida and Taliban suspects from Guantanamo Bay, the first detainees to leave the island prison because they no longer pose a threat, officials said yesterday.
Three Afghan detainees were handed over Sunday to Afghan officials at Bagram Air Base, Red Cross and U.S. officials said. The fourth detainee, a Pakistani, was flown on to Pakistan.
Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld disclosed last week that the Pentagon was planning to release some prisoners after it was determined they were not candidates for prosecution, held no intelligence value and were not a threat to the United States and its allies.
The United States previously transferred an Afghan suffering from schizophrenia was sent back to Afghanistan and Yasser Esam Hamdi, 22, was flown to the United States in April after records showed he was an American citizen.

Neighborsticked about tenants'trash
By Matt Stumpff

Kansan staff writer

Jared Soares/Kansar
Lawrence resident Jake Slimp picks up trash and reclaims his mailbox on his front porch. Slimp has had complaints from neighbors about trash laying idle on the front porch.
Some Lawrence residents have zero tolerance for students who leave trash on their own property.
The majority of the complaints stem from older residents in the neighborhoods who were singing out students, said Dan Johnson, Lawrence environmental inspector.
"They can't sneeze without having a complaint called in," Johnson said. "I can usually pick up the trash myself faster than handle the complaint."
Some residents think trash in yards is a more severe problem, said Arly Allen, Centennial Neighborhood Association committee member.
"What we're dealing with are single family homes converted into rental apartments with three or four students," Allen said. "They start parking cars on the front lawn, having parties late at night and leaving trash on the lawn."
Allen said older residents had a right to live without some of the problems brought on by some traditional students.
"It's not part of the environment these people anticipated when they bought these homes." Allen said.
"I go by my properties every day." Ebey said. "If something's wrong, I jump on it."
Landlords should take steps to keep tenants from having to make complaints, said Bob Ebey. Lawrence landlord and vice president of the Landlords of Lawrence, Inc.
Mike Strohm, Overland Park senior, said he had to pay multiple fines to his landlord in a previous residence because of trash on his property.
He said he didn't think his landlord would be so strict.
"We got a fine for having one single trash bag outside of our place," Strohm said.
Master Plan Management rents out houses in some neighborhoods with complaints about trash at students' homes,
said Liz Stecklein, manager for the company. She said most of the complaints she received were from retired people who lived there.
"They make a job of going around and looking at the rental houses," Stecklein said. "And sometimes I don't think it's fair to the tenants, because they will have, like, two beer bottles or a
trash bag outside.
Stecklein said she knew certain neighbors picked on students, because she only received complaints from certain neighborhoods each year.
"The houses I get complaints on, it doesn't matter what tenants are there." Stecklein said.

Arrest in robbery case relieves students

mburhenn@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A 19-year-old Lawrence man was arrested Friday after a search provided information linking him to the robbery of two KU students, said Sgt. Mike Pattrick of the Lawrence Police Department.
Christopher Lee Jackson, resident of 934 Illinois St., was arrested Friday after Lawrence police executed a search warrant relating to a different burglary. Jackson was not involved in that burglary. Pattrick said, but through that search, Lawrence
police had enough evidence to charge him with the Aug. 29th robbery of two 20-year-old female students, Patrick declined to say what Lawrence police found to connect Jackson with the robbery.
A man, his face covered with a white bandana, robbed. Crystal Reed, Burden junior, and Haley Stevens, Overland Park junior, at gunpoint about 3 a.m. Aug. 29 in their home in the 1300 block of Ohio Street. He demanded all their money, took their phone and shoved them into a bedroom. Reed said.
Jackson was charged yesterday with two counts of kidnapping.
two counts of aggravated robbery and one count of aggravated burglary Douglas County District Court Judge Peggy Kittel set his bail at $75,000.
Patrick said the kidnapping charge was brought because the victims were moved from room to room inside the house.
Reed said Friday's arrest was a relief to her and her roommate and the final step to returning to normal life like before the robbery.
"I didn't stay here by myself for a few weeks," she said. "We decided we weren't going to move but we did what we could to get back to normal and live like

She said that when Lawrence police notified her and Stevens, she was surprised that an arrest had been made.
"It was really a big relief," she said. "It didn't seem like they had anything to go off of."

Seminar to instruct minority leaders
By Katie Nelson
knelson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Jennifer Huang, a College of Liberal Arts and Sciences student senator, said her Taiwanese background made her more accessible to the Asian community but also brought frustrations.
An ethnic minority background does not always determine how a person is treated, but for someone holding a leadership position, it may color their actions unfairly.
She said that last year she worried about how people perceived her support for the Student Senate's push for a new Multicultural Resource Center.
"It might have been construed that I was just promoting the new MRC building because I was a minority, when really, that isn't true at all," said the Wichita senior.
A spring semester course. Minority Student Leadership Seminur, is designed to address situations such as these.
The two-year old class helps emerging student leaders develop their leadership skills in a non-mainstream environment, said Robert Page, director of the Office of Multicultural Affairs.
Page helped develop the course, in which 15 to 20 students study topics such as leadership theory, community involvement and parliamentary procedure.
Non minority students have taken part in the class as well, helping to create a more balanced spectrum of opinions and leadership experiences. Page said.
Students of color experience heightened expectations from minority groups and the mainstream world, Page said.
"Whether you want it to or not
those issues automatically come up," he said.
As a result, Page said, students need a place to study leadership styles which can help them deal with those pressures.
Olivia Standingbear took the class two years ago when it was offered for the first time. Her 12-person class discussed backgrounds, cultures and stereotypes.
"It was an eye-opener," said the Pawhuska, Okla., junior. "The whole idea of thinking about culture as not just some ethnicity, but as a family or whatever — I never thought of it that way."
Standingbear is serving as the president of KU's First Nations Student Association. Being a Native American in a student leadership role brings challenges that the Leadership Seminar has helped her address, she said.
"It's hard to stay confined to how America does everything," Standingbear said. "We're living in a white man's world. It's important to keep your traditions and still be able to conduct a meeting."
The Minority Student Leadership Seminar has no prerequisites, but it is recommended that students take Pre-101, a college adjustment course, and participate in Hawk Link, a minority retention program run by the Office of Multicultural Affairs, before enrolling in the class.
"When it comes to minorities you need to be getting your voice out there, and teach others that don't know about your culture," Standingbear said. "This class helped me learn that the only way you will be heard is if you speak up."

Should credit cards solicitors be banned on campus?
Yes, solicitors are taking advantage of the financial vulnerability of college students and we shouldn't have to deal with the temptation.
No, we are college students and we are responsible enough to know whether to sign up for a credit card or not.
Last Week's Poll
Out of 402 votes, 83 percent thought it was important to respect all living things, 15 percent thought there are other things far more important to be worrying about than animal rights, and 2 percent don't what what they think about the issue.
I don't know if they should be banned.
PERSPECTIVES
Americans don't have duty to cast their vote in elections
The right to vote is an established right vital to democracy in the United States.
Those citizens who are over the age of 18 are generally eligible to vote.
Those who are institutionalized and men who do not register for Selective Service are not eligible.
We have the right to participate in choosing our leaders and the actions they take on issues that affect us.
However, the majority of eligible U.S. citizens (approximately two-thirds) do not vote in off-year or congressional, nonpresidential elections. A little more than half of eligible voters take the initiative to vote in presidential elections.
This does not mean that they are not good citizens. People who don't vote aren't bad people, and they shouldn't feel bad about their decisions.
Some may not identify with either of the majority parties and think that voting for a third party is simply throwing your vote away.
COMMENTARY
There are many reasons people do not vote.

really count, especially in Kansas, where Republicans are elected to most offices.
Or it is simply too much trouble to stand in line to vote or to request an advance ballot through the mail.
Universal suffrage was not always taken for granted in our country.
African-Americans, women and non property-owning people fought for suffrage.
Projects aimed at encouraging people to vote, educating them about the issues and helping them register to vote are good.
However, some who encourage others to vote go too far. It is probably because of these fights that some argue that voting is not only a right but also a responsibility—or even a duty.
Voting as a duty is totally inconsistent with the values of this country.
The idea that a right is a duty, particularly the right to vote, is absurd.
Ayn Rand, a novelist and philosopher, wrote that a duty was "the moral necessity to perform certain actions for no reason other than obedience to some higher authority."
Thus the concept of the right to vote as a duty would be consistent with the ideology of a tyrant who forces his citizens to vote.
The idea of voting as a duty is inconsistent with the moral and political values of the United States.
One has the right to vote; subsequently, one also has the right not to vote.
If you are interested in voting, by all means, do so.
If you know about some of the basic issues and have an opinion on them, vote if you want.
If you don't care about voting, if you don't know anything about the candidates and the issues, then don't vote you might end up hurting a candidate with whom you agree.
If you vote in this election, you have no reason to congratulate yourself on fulfilling your duty as a citizen.
If you do not vote in this election you have no reason to feel guilty.

Copyright battle about corporate control, not record sales
In response to concerns of massive movie trading, Jack Valenti, head of the Motion Picture Association of America, declared that emerging technologies are "to the American film producer and the American public as the Boston Strangler is to the woman alone."
Of course when he made the statement in front of Congress, it was 1982 and in reference to the emerging technology of the time: VCRs.
Not surprisingly, many agreed with Valenti's bold declaration.
Valenti's actions then were an early sign that the battle over copyrights has nothing to do with record sales and everything to do with control.
A number of bills are pending before Congress. For instance, the Consumer Broadband and Digital Television Promotion Act would require copyright protections on all devices that touch digital content including computers, MP3 players and CD burners.

The 1998 Digital Millennium Copyright Act makes circumventing restrictions, even for constitutionally granted "fair uses," criminal.
Or consider that, according to rules like
out in the U.S. Code, CD Rs are currently taxed for royalty payments, irrespective of whether they are used for pirated music.

The content cartel doesn't want to just end piracy. It wants to create a new business model, with the help of legislation purchased by massive lobbying dollars.

They work together, as a cartel would, not simply to protect their profits but to create new ones.
There's a delusion that this is an issue of, as Snyder moralized, "stealing from the (record companies) and giving to the (college students)." This misses the point.
Without understanding this crucial distinction we can never confront the real issue and the real threat.
This is the fairy tale that the content industry has sold, hook, line and sinker. The ethics of sharing aside, what's at risk isn't the ability to trade music. This war isn't about downloading music.

Series educates teachers about Mexican holiday
By Katie Nelson
knelson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The KU Center of Latin American Studies is showing students this month that death can be a reason to celebrate.
Mexico's Day of the Dead, a time-honored religious celebration, is this Saturday and Sunday.
The center is putting on a Day of the Dead series that began Saturday with a workshop for more than 60 Kansas elementary, middle and high school teachers, and lasts until Dec.9.
The holiday, known as Dia de los Muertos, is a time for families to pay tribute to those who have died. It's a festive remembrance, celebrated by decorating graves, creating altar sites and preparing elaborate feasts.
"It seems like everyone in Mexico does it," said Raymond Rico, a Kansas City, Kan. sophomore, who has family in Mexico who observe the holiday.
Rico went to Mexico during Day of the Dead when he was 8 or 9 years old. He said he remembered seeing thousands of people at cemeteries for the holiday. His relatives created an altar with flowers, food, candles and personal things such as a sombrero for his grandfather, who died in 1992.
a somberer for his giftedness. The Latin American studies center regularly holds workshops about Latin American culture. More people attended Saturday's session than any other, said Brent Metz, the Center's assistant director. It receives funding from the U.S. Department of Education to serve educators throughout the Midwest.
Teachers who attended the opening session learned how to introduce their students to the holiday and Mexican culture.
Hannah Malotte, a Spanish teacher at St. Gregory's Catholic School in Marysville, introduces her sixth graders to Day of the Dead through making traditional sweet bread in the shape of skulls, she said.
"At first the kids are a little weirded out," she said, chuckling. "I guess they think it's kind of creepy."
But her students' initial apprehension quickly turns to fascination, Malotte said.
She said it was good for her students to learn about Day of the Dead, a holiday they don't know much about.

Mike Aman, manager at University Phillip's 66,2434 Iowa St., said customers noticed the difference in this season's prices.
"People are gripping about it a little bit more this year than last year," he said.
But Jason Dresslar,manager at the Kwik Shop,1611 E.23rd St., said customers were used to higher gas prices.
"It seems like in the past few years, prices have jumped up and down so much, people don't really mind," he said.
Danenberg, who said she spent about $60 per month on gasoline, said current gas prices discouraged her from fully filling up her gas tank. This concerned her, she said, because gas tanks were more

their FAFSA for next year beginning Jan. 1. Roecker said the key to receiving financial aid was timeliness.
"File that FAFSA as early as possible," Roecker said.
Another opportunity for students to receive financial aid comes from KU tuition grants, which began as a measure to counter greater financial need after the tuition increase.
Roecker said the University had guaranteed KU tuition grants through the end of this school year. She said the grant would be offered again if KU had a further increase in tuition, and that decision would be made during the spring semester.
She said some of the original recipients had dropped classes and lost eligibility for the money, so the University had redistributed some of the grants.

Park sophomore, said he had received a subsidized loan for the second time this year. He said the tuition increase wasn't the reason he applied this year.
"The tuition increase definitely didn't help," he said. "But I was in pretty much the same financial situation as I was in last year."
The University has dedicated 20 percent of the tuition increase

students said the candidates for governor were not making themselves known among the younger voting population, Morris said.
In each of the seven questions testing students' knowledge of each candidate, more than half of the participants answered the questions incorrectly or indicated that they didn't know the answer. For example, 75 percent of students didn't know Sebelius' current job and 87 percent didn't
know Shallenburger's position.
In order to learn about the candidates, some 48.5 percent of students surveyed said they used traditional newspapers over Internet sources.
"So often we hear that this is the electronic generation, so it was a surprise that newspaper was the highest," Morris said.
"It also could indicate a certain amount of disinterest," Morris said.
A section of the survey regarding key campaign issues showed education was the most important matter on the polled students' minds. But a subsequent question revealed that neither candidate was focusing on younger voters.
"Although they are addressing the issues, they aren't addressing them adequately for the students," said Jenifer Lewis, second-year graduate student in the class from Topeka.
Elizabeth Gray, Blue Rapids sophomore, said she agreed that the candidates hadn't appealed to college students.

Protest CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
Maggie Beedles, Lawrence senior, said she started planning the trip after she protested the World Bank and International Monetary Fund's meeting on Sept. 28 in Washington, D.C.
"I'm a fairly inexperienced national protester, so I didn't really know how to go about organizing the trip," she said. "I just knew it was important to bring a lot of people."
Beedles said she was frustrated with KU students' passiveness toward the issue of war.
"Students are generally uninformed about the issue, and it seems like this is exactly what we all should be focusing on," she said.
So Beedles, upset with the lack of action, decided to organize a group of students to attend the protest
"I've always heard the quote, 'Be true to the change in the world that you want to see,' and this is what I wanted to see changed," she said.
After driving all night, the van arrived at 8 a.m. Saturday morning at the Washington Memorial. The group met 20 other KU students who had left Thursday night and had stayed overnight at a local resident's house, which they had found through the Adopt-an-Activist program. This program involves activists who are too old to march but want to remain involved in activism, Beedles said.
About 11 a.m., an initially gloomy
day turned for the better as the sun finally came out on the crowd, which had gathered on the lawn of the Constitutional Gardens next to the Vietnam Veterans War Memorial. Some members of the group took the chance to walk along the Vietnam Memorial that lists 55,000 names of soldiers who had died in the Vietnam War.
By 2 p.m., organizers of the event announced that 200,000 people from at least 35 states had gathered to listen to a line of political speakers, including former politician Jesse Jackson and Medea Benjamin, head of a human rights organization called Global Exchange.
The group of KU students also rushed to hear Al Sharpton, a political activist speaker who addressed what he considered to be racist reasons for going to war with Iraq.
As the speakers rallied excitement for the march from the Vietnam Memorial around the White House, Tyler Longpine, Hays junior, discussed why students at KU should care about the push toward war from the Bush administration and Congress.
"The economy is the predominant issue," he said. "If we spend money that we don't have on a war, we will have to pay off war deficits instead of funding social programs and education."
At 2 p.m., the protestors took over the streets around the White House, leading chants and holding signs while they marched. Police lined up to
stop protesters from marching down any of the streets directly next to the White House. Otherwise, police presence was fairly minimal, Beedles said
While marching, KU students yelled unti-war chants like "Whose streets?" Our streets,""Drop Bush not bombs," and "What do we want? Peace."
But, not everybody in attendance at the march was in favor of the march. An Iraqi family handed out information that addressed why the United States should go to war with Iraq. Police in riot gear surrounded the family, who strongly stated a desire to see Saddam Hussein removed from power.
Although many protestors in attendance were students, Fran Beier, 52-year-old Lawrence resident, also protested and marched against the possible war. Beier said she reflected on the differences of this protest compared to the last one she had attended — which was against the Vietnam War in 1970.
"The police were a much more threatening presence then," she said. "I remember them wearing riot gear and using tear gas. This protest wasn't nearly as fearful of a situation."
Beier said she also ran into old friends that she knew from the antiwar protests in the '70s.
"We hoped we would never have to be here again, but we all knew peace wouldn't last," she said.

Greg Ostertag — Utah Jazz
The Jazz evened out its presseason record at 4-4 with two wins last week. Ostertag started at center in both contests and had his best game yet this year with 10 points and 10 rebounds against the Raptors on Thursday. Ostertag will likely start the season at center based on having more NBA experience than backups John Amaechi and Jaron Collins. The Jazz starts the 2002-2003 season tomorrow night with the inaugural game in New Orleans against the Hornets.

Dana Stubblefield — San Francisco 49ers
San Francisco advances to roll over opponents with a flurry of offense. Stubblefield anchors a tough defensive line, and in Sunday's 38-28 win over division opponent Arizona, he recorded two tackles that went along with his first forced fumble of the 2002 season.
Gerald McBurrows — Atlanta Falcons
McBurrows maintains his solid weekly performances in the Falcon secondary, and this week was a good week for him to show up.
The Falcons' 37-35 last-second win means they have now won four of their last five games.
McBurrows achieved four tackles yesterday and his second forced fumble of the season.
Kwamie Lassiter — Arizona Cardinals
The Cardinals' defensive backfield has continued to show improvements throughout the start of the season, but they took a step back as they were abused by 49ers quarterback Jeff Garcia to the tune of 252 yards, four touchdowns and no interceptions in the Arizona loss Sunday. Lassiter completed five tackles for the Cardinals, giving him 30 takedowns this season.

New Aguilera CD offers'eyeful'
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Christina Aguilera considers her new disc, Stripped, an opportunity for people to finally get to know who she really is — to "see the bare me."
The album's first single, "Dirrty," shocked the usually unshockable audience for music videos by featuring the former Mousketeer, dressed in a tiny bikini, grinding against other dancers. The cover of her new disc shows her topless, covered only by her long locks. And she's completely naked on the new cover of Rolling Stone — save for a strategically placed guitar.
"I don't see anything wrong with being comfortable with my own skin," the 21-year-old said in a phone interview with The Associated Press.
Not everyone is as comfortable with her skin as she is. Reaction to the teen pop idol's transformation into a sexually charged diva has been decidedly mixed.
While the "Dirty" video has been at or near No.1 on MTV's "Total Request Live," the song peaked at No.48 on the Billboard singles chart.
"Saturday Night Live" skewered the video's raunch. And Aguilera's scanty outfits have drawn barbs in the press (including the barely-there halter top she wore to the MTV Video Music Awards in August).
Aguilera acknowledges that "obviously, jaws are dropping."
"People like to see (singers) play it safe, and it scares people if we go beyond the boundaries sometimes," she said.
Although she previously had a sexy side, she showed her navel and the lyrics to "Genie" were mildly suggestive ("you've gotta rub me the right way"), her image was sweet. That plus her music were a successful combination, selling 7.9 million copies of her debut disc and netting her a Grammy for best new artist in 2000.
But Aguilera says living up to
that picture-perfect image made her miserable.
"The label (RCA Records) wanted to push the cookie-cutter, kind of play-it-safe, almost virginal kind of imagery that wasn't me." she said. "I really wanted to squirm away from that, because I really thought it was really fake and superficial and untrue of what I was about, and it was really really hard for me to live up to that anymore."
The new disc has brooding ballads, introspective songs and hiphop collaborations with Redman and Lil' Kim. Aguilera co-wrote most of the songs. Her changed look includes black streaks and braids in her blond hair, and piercings in her nose and underneath her lip, among other places.
"I thought by this time the teen pop thing will still be here. But I see now it is changing anyway," she said. "To keep my own sanity, regardless of where the music industry was going to go, I needed to be myself."

Prosecutor says suspected sniper may have shot FBI analyst
The Associated Press
SPOTSYLVANIA, Va. — The teenager arrested in the sniper slayings may have fired the shot that killed an FBI analyst, a prosecutor said yesterday as Virginia charged both suspects with crimes that could bring the death penalty.
John Lee Malvo, 17, and John Allen Muhammad, 41, now face murder charges in both Virginia and Maryland in the three-week series of attacks that killed 10 people and wounded three. Alabama has charged them in a killing during a robbery. No decision had been made yet on federal charges.
Fairfax County prosecutor Robert Horan Jr, said evidence shows that Malvo may have fired the shot that killed Linda Franklin on Oct. 14 outside a Home Depot in Falls Church. He would not elaborate on the evidence.
"There will be some evidence that the juvenile was the shooter just like there will be evidence that the adult was the shooter," Horan said. "But the point is, we don't know right now, and no one knows right now."
The pair were charged in Spotylvania County with the murder of Kenneth Bridges on Oct. 11 and the Oct. 4 wounding of an unidentified woman. The murder charges were based on state law
allowing capital punishment for the killing of more than one person within three years.
In Prince William County, where Dean Meyers was slain Oct. 9 while pumping gas, a grand jury charged Muhammad and Malvo with capital murder and conspiracy to commit murder under a new post-Sept. 11 terrorism law.
Prince William prosecutor Paul Ebert said that law would allow the death penalty for both men — even the man who did not pull the trigger.
Virginia Attorney General Jerry W. Kilgore said the terrorism law gives Virginia prosecutors a "backup, another option in their
arsenal" to seek the death penalty against Muhammad or Malvo i either eludes a death sentence for capital murder.
That boosts the case for allowing Virginia to try the suspects promptly, if not first, Kilgore said.
"The terrorism law includes not only the shooter but the masterminds behind these acts," Kilgore said. "We feel very confident that what these individuals have done fits within the definition of terrorism in this law."
In Hanover County, where an unidentified man was wounded on Oct. 19, the two suspects were also named in a variety of charges including attempted murder and terrorizing the public.
In all three Virginia counties, the charges against Malvo were made in juvenile court, but authorities said they would seek to have his case transferred to adult court.
County, state and federal prosecutors have yet to figure out who will bring the two men to trial first.
Spotsylvania County Sheriff Ronald Knight said Muhammad and Malvo should be tried in Virginia as soon as possible. "Everybody is looking for that to happen since Virginia has the death penalty" for both adults and juveniles, the sheriff said.
In Maryland, 17-year-olds are not eligible for the death penalty.
Virginia, which allows condemned prisoners to choose between lethal injection and the electric chair, has executed 86 people since capital punishment was reinstated in 1976, more than any other state except Texas. In the same period, Maryland has executed three people and is one of two states with a moratorium on executions.
There is no death penalty in the District of Columbia, where one person was killed.
Over the weekend, Montgomery County, Md., prosecutor Douglas Gansler said he believes his state should prosecute the men first, in part because Maryland had the most slaying; six.
Russia used opiate gas to free hostages, Pentagon says
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON—The mysterious gas Russian forces pumped into a theater to end a hostage crisis was an opiate—a chemical related to morphine, Pentagon officials said yesterday.
The Bush administration, meanwhile, refused to criticize Russian special forces for using the gas, which killed 116 of the hostages as well as the hostage
takers.
The State Department said an American hostage died during the operation.
U. S. officials found a body believed to be that of Sandy Alan Booker, 49, who was visiting Moscow from Oklahoma and had been reported missing by his friends and family. U.S. officials wouldn't publicly identify the victim, citing privacy concerns.
"The president abhors the loss
of life, but he understands that it is the terrorists" who are responsible for the tragedy, spokesman Ari Fleischer said yesterday as President Bush traveled to New Mexico.
Military officials said the U.S. Embassy in Moscow had determined that the gas used by the Russians was some sort of opium derivative.
Such substances not only kill pain and dull the senses but also
can cause coma and death by shutting down breathing and circulation.
Russian authorities have refused to name the substance used, even keeping that information from doctors treating the rescued hostages.
State Department spokesman Richard Boucher said the United States, as well as other countries, have asked the Russians to identify the gas they used.
"We are trying to get at that information," Boucher said. "That knowledge is also needed by the doctors.
"We're awaiting (the) response, but at this point, we just don't have the response."
Fleischer did not endorse the tactic in remarks to reporters as Bush flew from Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, to Phoenix, then from Arizona to New Mexico. But he made clear the administration's
But, he said, "As that information is developed, the president feels very strongly that the people who caused this are the terrorists."

Asked directly about the use of the gas, Fleischer wouldn't say whether the administration believed it was appropriate. "We don't know what all the facts are," he said.

Drew Gooden - Memphis Grizzlies
NBA
Memphis' preseason finale saw Memphis lose to the Magic 82-74 last Tuesday, with Gooden having his poorest outing yet, posting 10 points and four rebounds. The Grizzlies will start their regular season tomorrow night at home against Dallas. Gooden was the brightest of Memphis' young stars in the preseason, finishing the eight-game schedule by leading the team in points per game (18.0) and rebounds per game (11.5). Gooden will be coming off the bench to start the season as Pau Gasol's backup at power forward.
Paul Pierce - Boston Celtics
In Boston's final two preseason matches, Paul Pierce showed up to play, averaging 26.5 points per game. The Celtics lost at home to Dallas on Wednesday, and then won while hosting Washington in the first NBA game televised by ESPN this season. In his first national television appearance of the season, Pierce dropped in 31 points on 10-of-20 shooting, and added seven rebounds in the 104-95 win. After finishing the preseason 4-4, Boston will start its regular season campaign tomorrow at home against the Bulls.
Vaughn had a solid outing against Memphis last Tuesday, posting four points, five rebounds and four assists. In the preseason finale Thursday, Vaughn had his best game yet this year, with 12 points and seven assists. He outshone Darrell Armstrong, and it is yet to be determined who will start at point guard. The Magic will start the regular season tonight in Orlando as it hosts Philadelphia.
Raef LaFrentz - Dallas Mavericks
The Mavs will head into tomorrow night's opener against Memphis on a high note. The team ended the preseason with three straight wins, including Wednesday's 105-97 win at Boston and 102-95 victory the next night in Orlando. LaFrentz started the two games at center and recorded a total of 22 points and 13 rebounds.
lacque Vaughn - Orlando Magic
Scot Pollard - Sacramento Kings
The Kings wrapped up the preseason with a 6-2 record, including three wins last week. In the preseason's final week, the team beat the Trailblazers and Cavaliers at home, then ended with a road win over the Lakers, which was overshadowed by a brawl between Doug Christie and Rick Fox. Pollard solidified his bid for more minutes this season by recording double-doubles in Sacramento's final two contests, including 15 points and 14 boards against Cleveland. The Kings start regular season play tonight at home against the Cavs.

Women's golf opens play in Hawaii
By Ryan Greene rgreene@kansan.com Kansan sportwriter
The Kansas women's golf team has performed strongly under new coach Megan Menzel, finishing in the top half of all but one of its tournaments. The team could head into its winter hiatus on a positive note after this weekend.
Today the team will tee off in the Rainbow Wahine Golf Classic in Kapolei, Hawaii.
Kansas has shown consistent improvement throughout the fall season, and now finds itself ranked 82nd in the Golfweek Top 100 for the first time this season.
The first 36 holes will be played this afternoon, with the final round of 18 tomorrow morning.
The team has placed no lower than 14th in an event in Menzel's first year as coach.
Their last trip to the links produced its best finish yet, a thirdplace tie in the Marilynn Smith Sunflower Invitational in Wichita. Senior Heather Rose paced the team's performance, placing seventh individually after firing a threeround total of 226 (10-over-par). Junior Jennifer Bawanan was close behind in a tie for eighth place with a total score of 228 (12-over-par).
This weekend's tournament will host 17 teams.

After the Steinbocks defeated the University of Tulsa's Aleksandra Durska and Alicia Pillay 8-5 they fell to Missouri's Urkia Juric and Katka Sevkikova 5-8 in the semifinals of the tournament Saturday.

In singles, sophomore Paige Brown could not get past the quarterfinals, losing to No. 1 seeded Pillay 6-1, 6-3.
Courtney Steinbock also competed in the backdraw, or consolation, singles final Sunday after losing her first match in the main draw. She went on to win three straight matches en route to the backdraw championship. Maja Kovacek of the University of New Mexico defeated Steinbock, 6-3, 6-2.
"Overall, this was a very good tournament for us," coach Kilmery Waterman said. "Paige Brown is playing the best she has ever played and Courtney Steinbock has won some tough matches and is playing at a new level herself. We are excited for next spring."
Another notable performance for the Jayhawks came from junior Emily Haylock who lost a close match to Kansas State University's Haley McIver 7-6, 6-7, (10-5). Haylock dropped the first set but bounced back to win the second. However, Haylock could not defeat McIver in a close tie break to decide the match.
Freshman Christine Skoda worked her way to the quarterfinals in the qualifying draw. Skoda would eventually fall to Melissa Mendieta of the University of Oklahoma 6-3, 6-0.
The Omni Hotels tournament ends the fall season for the Jayhawks. The team will resume play during the spring season.
Friends meet as rivals in Sunflower Showdown

Saturday's Sunflower State battle between Kansas and Kansas State matches two rivals and two coaching friends.
Kansas coach Mark Mangino and Kansas State coach Bill Snyder will stand on opposing sidelines for the first time as head coaches when the Jayhawks and Wildcats meet at 1 p.m. Saturday at Memorial Stadium in the teams' 100th meeting.
"If it was not for Bill Snyder, I would not be here at KU as the head football coach today," said Mangino in yesterday's Big 12 Conference teleconference. "He has had a big impact on my career, on my life, on the way I think and on the way I approach things."
Mangino got his first Division I coaching experience at Kansas State when Snyder hired him to be a part of his staff in 1991.
Over the next eight years, Mangino was a part of the Wildcat's emergence from the depths of college football ineptitude to national contenders.
"I think the roles were reversed. At Kansas State we talked about not getting the respect we deserved in the state of Kansas. We'd have to earn that respect and we'd have to go out and beat KU to do it. Now the table's turned."

Kansas State went 71-23-1 over that span and was invited to six bowls. In 1998, the Wildcats were ranked No. 1 in the country from Nov. 8 to Nov. 29 in the ESPN/USA Today Coaches Poll on their way to finishing as the Big 12 North Division champs.
Although Mangino left the next year to join Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops' first staff, Mangino still has fond memories of his experiences with the rivalry.
"I think the roles were reversed,"

Mangino said in the later years of his stint on Snyder's staff, Kansas State would not even spend its full practice

Gooden proves his worth in Grizzlies preseason
Face it Jayhawk fans, Drew Gooden has made the right choice, and with each game he plays in a Grizzlies uniform, it is more obvious.
Last spring, Lawrence was filled with naysayers who chastised Gooden for choosing to forego his senior season at Kansas to enter the NBA draft.
He became the second player under Roy Williams to leave school early for the pros, and has proved critics wrong ever since.
P. K. S. BALAJI
Not only was he named one of the Most Valuable Players at the Rocky Mountain Revue Summer League in Salt Lake City, Utah, but he also led the Memphis squads in scoring and rebounding in the summer league and the preseason.
SPORTS COMMENTARY
Gooden averaged a double-double in the preseason, and fell a couple rebounds shy of doing the same in Salt Lake City.
Ryan Greene rgreene@kansan.com
Despite all early accomplishments,
why do his critics on the KU campus make fun of him for being in a commercial for NBA Live 2003 rapping about "moving in and out of the groove?"
Come on people — this is our boy we're talking about. The same guy who played a game with the flu against Texas his sophomore year. The same guy who, over the past three years, has stepped up in crunch time to carry the team on his back. The same guy who, on the court, was the emotional cornerstone during last year's run to the Final Four.
Critics should think about the repercussions on and off the court if Gooden had stayed this season.
What would happen to Gooden if he sustained a serious injury at the beginning of the season? It would be much better for him if it happened in Memphis, instead of in Lawrence, where he at least could have a $3 million signing bonus in the breast pocket of his new Armani suit.
If people want to get hung up on Gooden obtaining a degree, he can still do it after leaving to play in the pros. Shaq did it at Louisiana State and Vince Carter did it at North Carolina.
Finally, no one realizes how Gooden's play would have been affected if he stayed this season. He would have fallen victim to endless double and triple-team coverages, and he would have been forcing shots even worse than he did last year. After he finished as Co-National
Player of the Year, a drop-off in production would have killed his draft stock by the time next June rolled around.
It's hard to deny that Gooden will be a force for years to come in the NBA.
He is stuck for now as a contributor off the bench, playing behind six former first round players, including Pau Gasol, Shane Battier, Stromile Swift and Lorenzen Wright.
Gooden has solidified himself as the preseason front-runner to bring home Rookie of the Year hardware. No matter what, with every big performance that he puts up in the NBA, it only makes Kansas athletics look better, so embrace it.
If his performances stay consistent, he will have silenced forever all of the fans who loved him at KU and then turned their backs on him after he left school.

This week Mangino and the Jayhawks will put 100 percent of their focus into preparing for the Wildcats even with the possibility of facing No. 14 Kansas State without injured junior quarterback Bill Whittimore.
"I'm not going to sit here and tell you it's a bed of roses for our players, that we're 2-7 and playing rivals back-to-back," Mangino said. "But I'll tell you what, they're really enthusiastic and they have great resilience and they keep going and that's what makes me proud of this group of kids despite their record."
"And I know that there is a lot of things that make for good talk radio and make for good print, but only Coach Snyder and I know the relationship that we have." Mangino said. "And that's the way that it will be kept."
Even with the heated rivalry between Kansas and Kansas State, Mangino was quick to say that his relationship with Snyder would not change.

At the Head of the Iowa rowing competition last weekend, the University of Kansas team took great strides toward achieving its coaches' long-term goals and short-term strides for improving race times.
The team's highest finish came in the Varsity Four race in which it placed second, just behind the University of Minnesota.
"I was pretty pleased with our performance," coach Rob Catloth said. "We continue to improve each preseason race."
The competition in Iowa was some of the toughest KU has seen all preseason. Catloth added.
This competition, along with the previous two races and the upcoming Sunflower Showdown against Kansas State University, are all fall races, which make up the preseason for rowers. The regular spring season begins March 29 against the University of Texas in Austin, Texas.
Other results for the Jayhawks were third in the Novice Four, fourth in the Lightweight Novice Eight, fifth in the Open Two, sixth in the Open Eight and eighth in the Novice Eight.

Elli Wohlgelerner, diaspora affairs editor of the Jerusalem Post, shares his perspective on events in the Middle East and media coverage of Israel. He talked about constraints of the business and failures of its practitioners but added, "You cannot tell the press what to do, nor do I think you should." He spoke last night at a Hillel-sponsored event at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
A view from war's front
By Molly Gise mgise@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
To understand the conflict in the Middle East, students should turn off the television and hear as many opinions as they can, a journalist from the Jerusalem Post said last night. The event, held at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union, was sponsored by KU Hillel.
Time constraints of television news stories give a limited depiction of what's happening overseas, he said.
Elli Wohlgelerter, diaspora affairs editor for the Jerusalem Post, spoke to about 25 students about international media perceptions of the Middle East.
"How much can you tell in a minute and 20 seconds?" the American-born Wohlgelernter asked. "The question is, is that the story, or does it tell a very, very narrow frame of what that story might be?"
Many foreign correspondents in Israel are uninformed about the environment in which they report, Wohlgelernter said. This ignorance, especially when combined with laziness, can result in biased
"We all have biases," Wohlgelerner said. "The trick in journalism, of course, is to keep the bias out of the story."
accounts.
In coverage of the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians, the media are often more concerned with getting the story than getting the truth, Wohlgelernter said.
Many of the stories compare the number of Palestinian deaths against the much smaller number of Israeli deaths. This comparison is misleading to readers when it doesn't mention the number of Palestinian suicide bombers in the tally of victims, Wohlgelernter said.
"It's making a mockery of everyone," Wohlgelerent said. "It's making a mockery of the victim."
Wohlgelernter also addressed the climate after Sept. 11 and the potential war on Iraq. Protesting against the war is popular activity on university campuses nationwide, he said.
"It's cool to be against the war against Iraq,"Wohlgelerner said. "Some people don't get it. The whole world should be standing

As the weather continues to cool students have shifted from exercising on pavement to the comforts of hardwood floors.
Jerry Phillips, facilities director of Robinson Center, said more students had come to the center because of inclement weather.
"It's cooler, and the wetness we've had recently is not conducive to outdoor sports," he said.

change.
"As far as running goes, I've cut back because it's colder outside and I do more indoor exercise," he said.
McGee, who works out at least three times a week, said he was less prone to injury when exercising indoors because blood flows quicker in warm weather decreasing the likelihood of a muscle bulk during physical activity.
Patricia Denning, staff physician at Watkins Medical Center, said students should exercise more indoors during the winter.
"You have to consider elements like fey surfaces where you don't want to fall down and get hurt," she said.
Denning also said asthmatic students should exercise indoors because cold air could trigger bronchial spasms.
Andy Stevenson] Prairie Village senior, said he continued to jog outdoors during cold weather but took more precautions than he did during the summer
"You have to consider elements like icy surfaces where you don't want to fall down and get hurt."

"I just avoid the brick streets, which are a lot more dangerous during cold weather," Stevenson said. "They're completely uneven, and liable to twist
up your ankle or make you slip."
In response to the influx of students and intramural competition, Phillips said the Robinson Center hours were extended during the winter. Since Oct. 1, the center is open 6 a.m. to midnight Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. Saturday and 1 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. Sunday.

With temperatures below freezing and rain in the upcoming forecast, it's time to get cars ready for winter.
Jack Schafer, assistant supervisor at the University of Kansas' Facilities and Operations Garage, said students should check their cars to make sure they can make it through freezing weather, ice and snow.
Schafer and other mechanics at the garage worked on KU Public Safety

He said University vehicles were on a regular maintenance schedule so the cars don't require a complete overhaul before winter.
Because students may not regularly check their vehicles, preparing their cars right before winter is important, he said.
The antifreeze should good to 40 degrees below zero and the tread on the tires should be at least 3/32 inch.
Schafer said students can usually check the tread by looking at it.
"Take a penny and put it down in the tread," he said. "If the tread is shorter than Lincoln's head, the tires need to be replaced."

Other tips include changing oil, changing the oil filter and checking to make sure all the lights are working, he said.
Bailey suggested keeping a flashlight, blanket, road signals, a cell phone charger, a small tool set and jumper cables in the trunk. He also said it is important to keep a supply nonperishable food in the car in case it's stranded.
Lt. Schuyler Bailey of KU Public Safety Office said that what students keep in their trunks may be just as important as the car itself.

On the bench of the Supreme Court, Justice Clarence Thomas is formal and businesslike, but during his visit to the University of Kansas Law School yesterday and Monday. Thomas was relaxed and approachable, spending much of his time just talking with students, faculty and alumni.

Sandy Patti, assistant to Law School Dean Stephen McAllister, said Justice Thomas was on campus as an informal way to visit classes and meet one-on-one with law students. Patti said Dean McAllister had met Justice
"It's really good to come out and talk to the citizens of our country studying law." Thomas said.

Law school administrators downplayed Justice Thomas' appearance on campus not only for safety issues, but also because he did not give any formal presentations or lectures, said Jennifer Winkler, event planner and publication assistant for the KU Law School.
Thomas held two question-andanswer sessions with law school students, faculty and alumni yesterday. McAllister introduced Thomas, saying he had set the standard for visitors to the school.
Thomas said campus visits refreshed him.
Thomas devoted most of his speech at 3:30 p.m.yesterday answering questions from the nearly 200 people at 104 Green Hall, concerning minorities, faith,the dynamics of the court and the importance of the presidency.
Throughout his speech, Thomas stressed the importance of understanding different points of view and of having humility.
"We can't discuss any important issue unless we understand different points of view."Thomas said.
Before visiting classes on Monday morning, Thomas mingled with some law school students, Sarah Geolas, third-year Shawnee law student, said. Thomas spent much of his time at the meet-and-greet asking students about themselves. Geola said he answered some of her questions about the Supreme Court and the insanity defense.

NATION U.S. teachers spend more time in classroom
WASHINGTON — Teachers in the United States spend hundreds more hours in front of their classes than teachers in other countries, according to a report that said U.S. students, on average, perform no better than the rest.
Issued yesterday by the Parisbased Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, the annual report said U.S. high school teachers spend 73 percent more time teaching.
According to the OECD study of 32 countries, the United States ranks among the top for its percentage of 15-year-olds with "top-level literacy skills" - students who are among the best in the world at understanding complex texts and drawing on specialized knowledge.
Averaging in the number of low-performing 15-year-olds, however, the United States begins to look average. About 6 percent of American students are "below basic," unable to do all but the most basic work.
Researchers begin project, look to DNA for answers
WASHINGTON — Looking for a way to identify genes that cause disease, researchers are beginning a project to identify blocks of DNA that contain common variations in the human genetic structure, officials announced yesterday.
The $100 million project, expected to take three years, involves nine research groups in five countries and
will analyze genetic patterns in blood samples taken from people in Nigeria, Japan, China and the United States.
The goal is to determine how the 3 billion bits of DNA in the human genome, or genetic structure, are organized into sequence variations, or haplotype blocks.
Once the haplotypes are mapped, it will form shortcut to identifying inherited gene sequences linked to disorders such as diabetes and cancer, said Dr. Francis Collins, head of the National Human Genome Research Institute.

Funerals held for victims of Russia hostage crisis
MOSCOW — Relatives who endured a tense hostage crisis at a Moscow theater maintained a tearful vigil at hospitals yesterday.
As the first funerals were held yesterday for the 118 hostages who died, mourners stood outside the bullet-riddled theater building, which was held for 58 hours by rebels demanding a Russian withdrawal from Chechnya.
Former hostage Anna Tunnika, 56, said she was worried about her daughter-in-law, who she said was in a coma from knockout gas Russian special forces released before storming the building Saturday.
Health officials blamed the gas for the deaths of 116 hostages.
Authorities said 338 former hostages had been released from hospitals and 317 remained hospitalized.
Russian officials refused to say what substance was pumped into the building. U.S. officials identified it yesterday as the narcotic Fentanyl or a compound related to it.

Greeks' haunt to help charity
By Todd Rapp

Kansan staff writer
This Halloween, three National Pan-Hellenic Council chapters will volunteer their time for children and charity.
Delta Sigma Theta, Phi Beta Sigma and Zeta Phi Beta all have Halloween community service events planned for tomorrow.
The women of Delta Sigma Theta plan to trick-or-treat for canned goods in the 6th and Wakarusa area.
Brandi Taylor, president of Delta Sigma Theta, said the event originated five years ago when their chapter took part in Adopt-A-Family, but now the canned goods are donated to the Lawrence Interdenominational Nutrition Kitchen.
She said the chapter's goal is to collect 200 cans.
Children looking for a fright are welcome to attend the Phi Beta Sigma Haunted House at Kennedy Elementary School.
Despite limited funds for construction, the men of Phi Beta Sigma plan to show children a spooky time.
"You don't need anything too extraordinary to scare little kids; you just need to be creative," Jason Hylton, president of Phi Beta Sigma, said.
Terminally ill children at the University of Kansas Medical Center will be able to enjoy costumes and candy thanks to women of Zeta Phi Beta and their graduate chapter, Alpha Epsilon Theta.
The women will dress up and distribute candy to the children staying at the center.
The money for the candy was raised by selling ghost-grams on campus since October 21, Jennifer Leog, vice president of Zeta Phi Beta, said.
sure. The ghost-grams are personal messages that can be bought for $2 and delivered to anyone on campus by members of Zeta Phi Beta.

Halloween fans devise odd disguises

sewing. Her costume replicates apparel that adorns the bar maiden from the St. Pauli Girl beer bottle label.
"I thought it would be perfect because I'm German, so I might as well be the German beer wench," she said, chuckling.

costume this year.
Jennifer Ward, Wichita junior, said she had the early idea to create a similar dress with the unusual element of a fake swan that wraps around the neck. This allowed herself ample time to tweak the costume. Ward said she had scoured local craft stores to find the right materials: Funky Foam sheets of soft rubber for a beak, tulle — the material tutus are made of — for the skirt and a piece of white fur to represent feathers.
"The one thing I love about Halloween is you get these lazy people that take a regular shirt they throw blood on it and say, 'I'm a dead cow-

boy." said Jason Barr, Olathe junior. "I think it's so funny."
The music industry sparked an idea for Barr.
He said he couldn't resist representing the Norwegian death metal subculture this Halloween with his disguise: a long, stringy, black wig, gauntlets and a battle axe.
He said the early 1990s had produced several underground bands whose members studied Norse mythology and made war on other metal bands, sending bombs to them.
Spending the night as a dominatrix is on the agenda for Megan Johnson, Troy sophomore. Johnson began scouting for materials when she decided to build her disguise, a take on The Rocky Horror Picture Show and the musical Cabaret, from scratch.
Johnson said she had taken a break from Halloween in high school and didn't pick up the habit of celebrating again until college.
"I think being in college is like being a little kid," she said. "You take naps, watch cartoons, eat cereal for every meal and dress up for Halloween."

WEDNESDAY,OCTOBER 30,2002
FACE-OFF
Should credit card solicitors be banned?
Face-Off is a weekly project of the Kansan editorial board. Each Wednesday two editorial board members will argue opposing sides of a hot-button issue that affects students at the University of Kansas. We hope that this section will help students to understand both sides of an argument and
make better decisions about their own beliefs.
If you have a suggestion for a topic that could be used in Face-Off, or if you would like to join the editorial board, please call Maggie Koerth or Amy Potter at 864-4924. You can also email suggestions to opinion@kansan.com.
Protect KU students by banning solicitors
Credit card usage among college-age students can lead to serious problems. "Not only are more students carrying plastic — 92 percent carry at least one credit card by their sophomore year — but 21 percent of undergraduates who have cards are carrying balances between $3,000 and $7,000," in an article that appeared in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution in July. The statistics were taken from a study conducted by Nellie Mae, a national provider of higher education loans.
To combat credit card solicitors on campus, the Board of Regents voted Oct. 17 to ban solicitors for a minimum of two weeks at the start of the semester. In addition to the ban, the Regents said information about the responsible use of credit cards and the risks of credit card usage must be provided to students along with solicitation materials.
Jonathan Ng, student body president, said KU already had a temporary threeweek ban on credit card solicitation. The ban begins a week before the first day of classes and continues for the first two weeks of classes.
To implement a more permanent policy, Student Senate passed a resolution Oct. 9 banning all credit card solicitation on campus, but the final decision rests in the hands of Provost David Shulenburger. If approved, the resolution would go into effect next school year. If denied, the University would use the policy passed by the Board of Regents.
It is important that universities recognize the harm of credit card solicitation on
campus, where students are vulnerable to the temptation of instant credit.
Young people and credit cards are a "volatile combination" said credit counselor Kevin Ferguson, in an article that appeared in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution in July, Ferguson is a lead counselor at Consumer Credit Counseling Service in Atlanta. The national nonprofit agency provides debt counseling to 25,000 clients nationwide, and about a quarter of those clients are ages 18-24.
Students' financial stability is a greater concern than access to credit card vendors on campus. Congressional testimony given by Robert Manning, professor of humanities at Rochester Institute of Technology, showed students lack the foresight for financial planning. Students use summer earnings and college loans to pay off debts. They rely on a good job offer after graduation to pay off debts. Manning said this could be a problem for students because of the current economic situation.
"Record levels of loans and credit card/ consumer debt have coincided, for the first time, with the worst job market in over a decade," he said.
Until college students are better informed about financial responsibility and can handle the temptation of easy credit, universities are obligated to protect students so they will leave college financially sound and ready to tackle the real world.

Budgeting is student's responsibility
There seems to be no end to the paternalism displayed by many who seek to dictate the financial path of students. The paternalism won't end. The not-so-new notion of banning credit card solicitation on campus has popped up again.
The Board of Regents proposed a temporary moratorium on banning solicitations in June, and the University of Kansas adopted a similar policy this school year. Proponents look to rising debt levels as evidence of the bans necessity, but in truth their proposals are needless and cause more harm than good.
Attempting to regulate, or worse, ban completely, credit card solicitation on campus has little to offer in terms of reducing student debt load.
Instead, such approaches are dangerous in the message they send and insulting to the maturity of the legal adults whom are deprived of their considerable consumer power. That message from the administration is a powerful one; students are not to be trusted with one of the most necessary and
What's worse is the prospect that restricting advertising could further exacerbate the problem of student debt.
Every 18-year old will continue to routinely receive offers from a myriad of creditors despite regulations. Eliminating one avenue will have no effect on the ability of a student to hold a credit card but will affect the variety from which the student chooses.
The market forces, which normally keep rates reasonable and terms favorable, are damaged when the side-by-side competition offered on campus is removed. Prohibition-style limits will serve only to reduce the number of credit card choices on campus, not the number of cards.
As always, proponents will continue to reference the consequences of student debt as justification. The error lies in blindly believing that prohibiting solicitation can somehow alleviate the deeper issues at hand.
An article that appeared in The San
Diego Union-Tribune about a California law restricting credit card solicitations on campus. Perry quotes Steve Rhode, president of a nonprofit credit-counseling center, as saying, "Credit is like breathing in our society... The mistake most people make is saying, 'My child is never going to have a credit card.'"
Rhode grasps the concept in a way that this administration is unable to. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported that 80 percent of students held credit cards. Restricting their solicitation on campus is unlikely to eliminate campus debt.
It is hardly consistent to shield students for their own good while they are in school, only to release them to the wolves when they leave it.
Of course students are let loose only when they are no longer paying tuition. Just keep in mind next time you pay tuition that the Bursar's Office accepts Discover and MasterCard.
Greg Holmquist dissenting.
PERSPECTIVES
Show real patriotism, go out and vote on Nov. 5
We are, supposedly, a country dedicated to our idea of democracy.
We have our flags on our cars, our patriotic songs written by semi-famous country singers, and our ridiculous bumper stickers with the words of a dying man on them, i.e., "Let's roll."
We are determined to kill the Commies, terrorists, and just plain old "near" people of the world, as long as we can hold onto our Jr. Whoppers, Late Night Cinemax, and legal prostitution in the state of Nevada.
We strut around post-Sept. 11 with this thought in our simple little heads that this is how we have been acting all along, that we didn't just need a plane to fly into a couple of skyscrapers for us to
be as patriotic as all get out.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I think this patriotic bandwagon all of America has jumped on needs its tires shot out.
As Nov. 5th approaches, it will be interesting to see just how many of the patriots of America will be willing to take the cell phone off their ear, or tear themselves away from a Spongebob Squarepants rerun to take five minutes to vote.
GUEST COMMENTARY
By the way, I did say opportunity, not right. Voting is not a right. America
More than half of the people of this country who are registered to vote are throwing their opportunity away in the Stars and Stripes trashcan they bought Sept. 12.
Meagan Kelleher opinion@kansan.com
could easily be another country, where we aren't as fortunate.
Instead of listening to tear-jerking renditions of "The Star Spangled Banner," the men of this country could be standing in line waiting to put in their "yes" ballot for Saddam Hussein.
According to the Student Legislative Awareness Board, 3.428 newly registered student voters are going to be
ratting all over themselves trying to get to the polls on the 5th. If only we were that lucky.
Oh, but silly me, I forgot how patriotic we all suddenly are.
I forgot that we care about this country, we care when we pollute it's water and it's air, we care when we cheat on our taxes, and we care when the Big K closes because where are we supposed to find discounted "America Rocks" window decals now?
Challenge those 3,428 registered voters to find their way to the voting booths. I challenge every registered voter in Kansas, Nebraska, or whatever state you may be in that will be holding elections in November.
1 challenge those people who aren't
registered to get up off their lazy haunches, stop complaining about the state this country is in and do something about it.
If you can find the energy to watch the America's Tribute to Heroes, then I think you can direct yourself to the nearest elections office and register yourself.
If you are such a pro-American patriot then you will vote because you actually do care, even if your vote is a miniscule percentage in a final tabulation.
If you don't, you are nothing but a hypocrite wearing a stupid flag t-shirt.

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN = 5A
Reading,writing and rock'n'roll Student finds job in music industry rewarding
By Louise Stauffer
lstauffer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Joya Cleveland works seven days a week as a full-time student. But for her, a typical day's work includes shopping for bands such as Korn, Linkin Park, and Marilyn Manson.
Cleveland, a Burlington junior, is the Sony College Marketing representative for the state of Kansas and is also a production assistant for the House of Blues in Lawrence.
Cleveland's job duties for Sony include building window displays for Sony's bands at retail stores, handing out music, posting fliers, dealing with the press and working meet-and-greets with the bands.
"I'm a workaholic," she said.
"joya has her hands full, she's always on her feet," he said.
Drew James, Independence junior and Cleveland's House of Blues co-worker, agreed.
Her job for the House of Blues requires her to organize shows in Kansas City, Omaha, St. Louis, and Tulsa.
Organizing a show requires
purchasing all the food and beverages the artists want, setting up their dressing rooms, and taking care of random errands such as driving the artists to gyms, drugstores or restaurants.
On Monday afternoon, Cleveland's car was parked in front of the Granada packed with groceries such as sugared cereal and cases of bottled water and alcohol.
"Sometimes vegetarians and vegans are hard to shop for," she said, remembering when she was sent to the store for techno artist and famed vegan Moby's show. "They pretty much don't eat anything but lettuce."
She had just finished a shopping trip for the band Good Charlotte, who performed at the Granada Monday night. Good Charlotte's shopping list was fairly easy compared to some she'd seen.
Cleveland said sometimes most of the food on the artists' wish list wasn't touched, but the alcohol usually disappeared quickly.
She sometimes makes multiple trips to the liquor store in one night to satisfy each band's drinking habits.
But there are also benefits. Cleveland hardly ever pays for concerts or CDs and she attends an average of three shows a week.
Cleveland had a Spanish test the day after the Good Charlotte concert and planned to study after leaving the Granada around 2 a.m. After studying, she is typically able to sleep for a couple of hours before the next day begins.
She said all the work is worth it.
After all, Cleveland will leave today for a Sony music conference in New York City and an all expenses-paid weekend. Missing classes for such an opportunity is a sacrifice Cleveland is willing to make.
Before coming to the University of Kansas last year, Cleveland attended Butler County Community College in El Dorado and received an Associates in Arts degree. While she attended Butler, Cleveland worked as an intern at the radio station KICT-95, a rock station in Wichita.
After a month there, the radio

station's sister station, which played classic rock, needed a disc jockey. Cleveland said she was thrown on the air without a clue about classic rock music.
"I was the worst," she said.
Jared Soares/Kansan
Cleveland said her radio experience helped her stand out when she applied for her job with Sony.
Burlington junior Joya Cleveland works the merchandise table during a concert at the Granada Monday night. Cleveland's job allows her to interact with many of today's hottest rock acts.
Cleveland began classes at the University last fall, and is currently pursuing a degree in journalism. While juggling work with school was easy for her at Butler, she said it was a challenge here.
"I have no time for homework," she said. "I have a lot more trouble here."
Cleveland said her roommates wish they could spend more time with her, and romance is out of the question.
"I couldn't have a boyfriend even if I wanted to," she said.
Cleveland's mother, Linda Cleveland, said Joya always had a strong work ethic, but Linda worried about Joya's busy life.
"She always puts music or when she's here, and she could pretty much tell you anything about any band," Linda said.
Linda said Joya had also always loved music and tried to get Linda and her husband. Grover, to develop a taste for new sounds.
Cleveland said although the music industry dominated by
men, being a woman has it's advantages.
When she worked in radio, she said she had an easier time getting interviews with artists at concerts.
The constant stream of rock stars doesn't faze her anymore. When a member of Good Charlotte stopped by to chat, she looked like she was talking to a friend.
"I'm pretty jaded," she said. "These guys are just big nerds like I am."

Symphony orchestra plays tomorrow night sans Halloween masks
By Kyle Ramsey
kramsey@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas Symphony Orchestra will perform at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow at the Lied Center.
Concert Director Timothy Hankewich, who is also associate director of the Kansas City Symphony and interim director of orchestral studies at the University, said the orchestra would perform Felix Mendelssohn's "Reformation Symphony."
The show is not connected to Halloween, but tied to Oct. 31 by the Lutheran calendar, which calls Oct. 31 Reformation Day.
The concert will feature a performance by Joyce Castle, professor of voice and renown mezzo-soprano.
She will sing with the orchestra in "El Amor Brujo," a ballet suite by Spanish composer Manuel de Falla.
Castle recently returned from Italy, where she performed through most of October, Hankewich said.
The performance will include assistant conductor Steven McDonald, Reading, Mass., graduate student.
Participating in the school's orchestra series is McDonald's primary means of studying conducting, he said.
"That's how we learn," he said. "We just get up and do it."
Hankewich said students who were participating in

tomorrow's show had auditioned earlier this semester.
The orchestra has been preparing the concert for about one month.
McDonald will open the show with Wagner's "Rienzi."
Hankewich said he encouraged students interested in performing in future shows to contact the KU Orchestra and Band Office at 864-3367. Auditions for next semester will begin in mid-November, he said.
The KU Symphony Orchestra will perform an Evening of Piano Concerto Monday, Nov. 25, and the annual Christmas Vespers concert Sunday, Dec.8.
Advanced tickets for both shows are available at the Lied Center ticket office.
Admission to Thursday's performance is $7 for general admission and $5 for students and seniors.
Tickets are available at all KU Ticket Outlets: The Lied Center Ticket Office, 785-864-ARTS; Murphy Hall Ticket Office, 785-864-3982; and SUA Ticket Office, 785-864-3477.

Committee tries to speed bike lanes along
By Lindsey Hodel
lhodel@kansan.com
kansan staff writer
University architects have included bike lanes on campus in long-term landscaping plans, but some students would like to see bike lanes added on campus sooner than the plan calls for them.
The Bicycle Pedestrian Board, a subcommittee of Student Senate's transportation board, held its first meeting last Wednesday to discuss a proposal to add bike lanes along Jayhawk Blvd. within the next two or three years, said Laura Adams, chair of the Bicycle Pedestrian Board.
Adams said the current land
scaping plan for campus includes adding bike lanes within five years.
"By removing the parking along Jayhawk Blvd," the Topeka sophomore said, "adding bike lanes would be easy to do."
Adams also said the committee has discussed increasing student awareness by handing out information on campus about safe bicycling.
"Right now we are working on building student support," she said.
But, the availability of handicapped parking presents a problem for the option of removing all parking along Jayhawk Blvd., Adams said.
"We've talked about the possi
bility of moving handicapped parking to the back of the buildings, which could be feasible," she said.
Other factors exist that pose problems for the addition of bike lanes, said University architect Warren Corman.
"One of the problems is that if the street needs to be widened, trees may have to be cut down," he said, "and nobody likes that idea."
No plans are definite for adding bike lanes to Jayhawk Blvd. because the university does not have enough money to fund construction along the stretch of road, Corman said.
"It would be based on private donation," he said. "We can't do
anything until money from Endowment is secured."
He said any kind of construction on Jayhawk Blvd. would involve costs that the current budget could not sustain.
Although he said he has not perceived many real threats to his safety while riding his bike on campus, Jeff Brandsted, Topeka junior, said he thought the addition of bike lanes on campus was a good idea.
"Just having bike lanes present makes pedestrians and cars more aware that there could be a biker could be coming," he said. "Otherwise, people tend to forget about them."

Film challenges masculine roles
By George Schulz
gschulz@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Violence isn't so much a deviation as an accepted part of masculinity, said Jackson Katz, founder of Real Men, an anti-sexist men's organization based in Boston.
The Men's Outreach Program showed a film featuring Katz to about 50 University of Kansas students last night at the Big 12 room in the Kansas Union.
Katz did not appear at the event but was the main focus of the film. He was the first male to graduate from the University of Massachusetts with a degree in women's studies.
"Feminism isn't just about women's issues," Katz wrote in a 1993 column handed out at the viewing. "It's about looking at the
world as a prism of gender. What many people fail to understand is that this includes masculinity."
The film, entitled Tough Guise: Violence, Media and the Crisis of Masculinity, featured Katz describing what he believed were the dominant male features of power and control portrayed in pop culture media in the United States.
Katz's narration during the film was layered with popular media images that he said perpetuate the violent aspects of male behavior, such as war movies and aggressive sports competitions.
Katz described "tough guise" as an extreme notion of masculinity in which men are shackled by narrow assumptions of how they are supposed to behave in society.
He said the fear of being viewed as weak kept many men from acting outside the confines of dominant gender roles.
The film also includes statistics that suggest men have a much higher chance of engaging in violence, including rape, homicide and spousal abuse.
Katz added that some minority men tended to respond to decades of racial discrimination by exhibiting hyper-masculinity and the accompanying violence.
Some students said the video added a new element to their perceptions of gender issues.
"I'm still pretty intimidated by what he had to say," said Ian Spiridigliozzi, Flint, Mich., senior, referring to Katz. "I never thought of masculinity in those terms. I saw a lot of things that reflected who I am."
Courtney Kaytis, Willamantic. Conn., senior, concurred.
"It brought up a lot of interesting things," she said. "I had never before felt compelled to attend something like this before. It was good."
The Men's Outreach Program, which sponsored the film showing along with the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center, formed last year.
Travis Weller, Garden City junior and coordinator for the program, said the program was designed to respond to gender issues faced by men.
"We realized there was a lot of gender-specific programming focused toward women's needs," he said. "But there was little that addressed what men faced in today's society."

Emu: the other red meat
By Andy Marso and Stephanie Goettsch editor@kansan.com Special to the Kansan
Overweight and health conscious Americans may be overlooking a good alternative source of protein: emu meat.
An emu is a large, flightless bird that resembles an ostrich. Full-grown adults weigh 90 to 150 pounds and stand almost six feet tall.
Emu provides more protein than traditional meats such as beef and turkey.
In fact, emu tops the charts in 15 of 20 nutritional categories in a June 2000 University of Wisconsin study, sponsored by the United States Department of Agriculture.
Lawrence farmer Ann Merkel makes her living by providing this lean meat to the Lawrence area, but emu is her meal ticket in more ways than one.
Merkel, vice president of the Kansas Emu Association, said the meat tasted like beef and had a similar texture.
"There's no fat in it. It's all lean, red meat," Merkel said. "In the latest USDA meat study, we beat everybody nutritionally."
"I eat it at least once or twice a day." Merkel said.
Emu meat provides 28 grams of protein, five grams of fat and 164 calories per 3.5 ounce serving.
Ann Chapman, registered dietitian at Watkins Health Center, said despite the nutritional advantages, people hesitated to try the unconventional meat.
"It's not mainstream," she said. "It's not a traditional offering in our country."
Price may also play a part, said Merkel. A cubed package of emu
costs $8.40 a pound, compared with a cubed package of beef at $2.40 a pound, according to Hy-Vee on 6th Street.
Kristen Fellows-Walker, Healthmart manager at Hy-Vee on 6th Street, said the lack of advertising hindered emu meat sales.
She said larger corporations in the meat industry had the funds to market and advertise their products.
The small size of the emu industry forces alternative farmers to pay for advertising out of their own pockets.
"It's more like grassroots advertising," she said.
Merkel promotes emu meat at the Hy-Vee on 6th Street.
She cooks emu dishes, such as spaghetti and emu meatballs, and allows customers to try free samples.
Hy-Vee has sold Merkel's meat in Lawrence for a year and a half. She brings Hy-Vee 30-to-40 pounds of emu every three months.
Fellows-Walker said health conscious customers preferred emu because it was a free-range animal raised without antibiotics and steroids.
She said Hy-Vee added emu to its shelves in response to customer demand.
"It was another option we could provide as a healthy animal choice," she said.
Despite its nutritional benefits, Fellows-Walker refrains from eating emu.
"I don't know if I can bring myself to try it," she said. "It's weird to me."
Thane Dinsdale, Lincoln, Neb., junior, said he would have no qualms about trying emu. The only reason he hasn't tried it was he hadn't seen it on the menu
"I don't know if I can bring myself to try it. It's weird to me."
Kristen Fellows-Walker Hy-Vee Healthmart Manager
Pachamama's, 2161 Quail Creek Dr., is the only Lawrence restaurant that offers emu dishes.
anywhere.
"There's a lot of turnover on our menu," Sam Sieber, Pachamama's sous chef, said. "We go through phases. Sometimes we'll use it for three months in a row."
Sieber said the restaurant ran specials to convince people to try emu.
Pachamama's serves emu in combination with other meats, as an appetizer or as a filet. He said it kept the price low by serving emu with less expensive side dishes.
At Pachamama's, a typical emu entrée costs $21, compared with $27 for beef, $24 for seafood and $22 for salmon.
Sieber said the meat tasted somewhat similar to ostrich and had a deep red color.
"I like it a lot," Sieber said. "It has a very intense flavor that you can't compare to much else. It has a slightly wild, gamey flavor."
Pachamama's plans to continue including emu on its menu along with traditional entrées, though it hasn't sold well.
"People eat more beef and fish of course," Sieber said, "but when they get emu, they like it. It's just a matter of trying to convince people to eat it in the first place."

Jurors convict Olathe man
The Associated Press
OLATHE - Jurors found John E. Robinson Sr. guilty yesterday in the deaths of three women, two of whom were found stuffed in barrels on his rural Linn County property.
He was convicted of two counts of capital murder for the deaths of Suzette Trouten, 27, of Newport, Mich., and Izabela Lewicka, 21, a Polish immigrant from West Lafayette, Ind.
Both bodies were found in barrels.
Both women met Robinson over the Internet and came to Kansas on the promise of jobs and to become sex slaves in sadomasochistic relationships with Robinson.
Robinson, 58, of Olathe, showed little emotion as the verdicts were read.
He also was convicted of first-degree murder for the 1985 death of Lisa Stasi, 19, whose
body was never found.
Jurors were allowed to return home until the beginning of the penalty phase tomorrow.
Judge John Anderson III said he expected jurors to begin deliberating Robinson's penalty this weekend.
jurors also found Robinson guilty of interfering with the parental custody of Stasi's 4-month-old daughter, Tiffany, and of arranging her illegal adoption to his brother.
Court protects free speech between doctors, patients
The Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO - A federal appeals court ruled for the first time Tuesday that the government cannot revoke doctors' prescription licenses for recommending marijuana to sick patients.
A three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals unanimously found that the Justice Department's policy interferes with the free-speech rights of doctors and patients.
actually revoked.
"An integral component of the practice of medicine is the communication between doctor and a patient. Physicians must be able to speak frankly and openly to patients," Chief Circuit Judge Mary Schroeder said.
The 9th Circuit upheld a 2-year-old court order prohibiting the government from stripping doctors of their licenses to dispense medication. The policy was blocked before any licenses were
The dispute is one of several cases resulting from medical marijuana laws on the books in eight states.
The government argued that doctors were aiding and abetting criminal activity for recommending marijuana because it is an illegal drug under federal narcotics laws.
But the appeals court said doctors have a constitutional right to speak candidly with their patients about marijuana without fear of government sanctions.
The court said doctors could get in trouble only if they actually helped patients obtain marijuana. Merely recommending the drug "does not translate into aiding and abetting, or conspiracy," Schroeder said.
The Justice Department had no immediate comment.
Graham Boyd, an American Civil Liberties Union attorney.
had urged the judges to preserve the sanctity of doctor-patient interactions. "That is speech that is protected by the First Amendment," he argued.
The case was brought by patients' rights groups and doctors including Neil Flynn of the University of California at Davis, who said that marijuana may help some patients but that doctors have been fearful of recommending it.
U. S. District Judge William Alsup responded by prohibiting the Justice Department from revoking Drug Enforcement Administration licenses to dispense medication "merely because the doctor recommends medical marijuana to a patient based on a sincere medical judgment."
Alsup's order also prevented federal agents "from initiating any investigation solely on that ground."

behind a war against Iraq."
Wohlgelernter CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
His opinions about the war incited some disagreement among the crowd. Wohlgelerner argued that the removal of Saddam Hussein and the instillment of democracy in countries like Iraq was the only way to bring about a new, more peaceful Middle East.
"To me it seems so absurd to be against taking out Saddam Hussein," Wohlgelatern said. "Where is his line? He has no line, just like Osama bin Laden has no line."
Daniel Cole, Colorado
"He was very confident of Bush," Cole said of the speaker after the event had ended. "At times too confident, I think."
Springs, Colo., freshman, disagreed with parts of Wohlgelermer's speech.
Cole said he was impressed with his presentation of issues not important to many Americans. His opinions are valuable.
Cole said.
"I think it's essential that more Americans get involved in the type of dialogue he brought the KU campus," he said.
Many students on campus are unaware or ill-informed about the conflict in the Middle East, Cole said. He said the issues highlighted in Wohlgelerner's speech were too important to ignore.
"It's a horrible malady in the United States that kids don't care about what's going on in Israel," Cole said. "I think people could understand if they tried to. I don't think they care."

well as in classes," Geolas said.
Michelle Hamilton, second-year Lawrence law student, said when Thomas spoke with her Constitutional Law class on Monday, he used nearly the entire 50-minute class period as a question-and-answer session.
"It's really an honor to have
him here," Hamilton said. "He talked a lot about the decision-making process of the justices and he discussed specific issues like cameras in the court room."
Richard Levy, KU law professor, said Thomas' visit helped give law students a direct sense of what kinds of people Supreme Court justices were and what processes they followed when doing their jobs.
"It's a great practical insight
for lawyers," Levy said, "especially since he's interested in speaking one-on-one with as many law students as possible."
Dave Lockett, Manchester England, law student, said he was impressed when Thomas spoke in his Criminal Procedure class on Monday.
"He seemed approachable and funny, just like a regular guy," Lockett said. "He talked a lot about his responsibilities as a
justice and about keeping personal opinions out of decisions."
Adam LaBoda, Minneapolis,
Minn., law student, said when
Thomas spoke in his Constitutional Law class on Monday, he discussed how the Supreme Court justices interacted.
"He talked about how well all the justices get along," LaBoda said. "Even though they might get frustrated with each other, they still get along really well."
LaBoda said he was particularly stuck by Thomas' thoughts on how the court operated and its practical application for lawyers.
"With a little bit of humility you learn to respect what other say," Thomas said during his speech yesterday afternoon, "and I think we can start that right here."
Sniper suspect charged
Edited by Amanda Sears
The Associated Press
GREENBELT,Md.—The government filed its first charges against sniper suspect John Allen Muhammad yesterday, accusing him of a deadly extortion plot in a complaint that could carry a death sentence.
The 20-count complaint charges Muhammad,41, with discharging a firearm as part of an extortion scheme in the deaths of seven people in Maryland and the wounding of three others, in Maryland and Virginia.
U. S. Attorney Paul McNulty of Virginia said if a firearm is used to carry out violence in an extortion scheme, the crime is punishable by the federal death penalty. Police believe the sniper left a note demanding $10 million at the scene of a Virginia shooting.
The complaint did not name the other suspect, 17-year-old John Lee Malvo, because he is not an adult. A juvenile can be charged with a federal capital offense but cannot be executed.
Malvo and Muhammad already face murder charges in Virginia and Maryland in the attacks that killed 10 people and wounded three. Alabama has charged them in a killing outside a liquor store last month in Montgomery.
The question of whether there will be federal indictments remains undecided, McNulty said. He said a complaint is "just a charging document that has the effect of further holding the defendants."
"But that charging document today would lay out some of the
grounds for a federal case." McNulty said.
It is also unknown whether a federal prosecution would begin before or after state prosecutions.
During a brief hearing, Muhammad said he understood the charges against him and another court appearance was scheduled for Nov. 5.
Outside court, James Wyde,
the chief federal public defender
in Maryland, urged the public to
withhold judgment until evidence
is heard.
"Mr. Muhammad is a 41-year-old father," Wyde said. "He was an American who served in the Persian Gulf. He was honorably discharged. He has never been convicted of another crime at any time, anywhere."
Hesaid Muhammad is accused "of an incomprehensible crime, one that had a profound impact on our community and has destroyed the lives of the victims and their families."
"What I'm asking you to do at this point is to wait for the process to work." Wyde said.
The affidavit details evidence found in the 1990 Chevrolet Caprice in which Muhammad and Malvo were sleeping when they were arrested at a Maryland rest stop last week.
The items include a Bushmaster .223-caliber rifle police have linked to some of the killings and a cotton glove stuck in a hole in the trunk. Authorities believe the sniper shot victims through the hole while lying in the trunk.
The glove matches one found
at the scene of the Oct. 22 murder of a Maryland bus driver, according to the贴idavit.
Also found was a global positioning system, a pair of two-way radios, a laptop computer, a pair of bolt cutters and a wallet containing several drivers licenses bearing Muhammad's likeness but with different names.
The affidavit also confirmed that a tarot card with a handwritten note was found after the Oct. 7 shooting outside a school in Bowie. A second, longer note demanding $10 million was found after an Oct. 19 shooting in Ashland, Va. The handwriting appears to be by the same person, according to the affidavit.
Muhammad was charged under the Hobbs Act, which allows a capital murder charge when a killing includes extortion and interstate commerce is interrupted. Interstate commerce was interrupted by, among other things, traffic jams created as police searched for the killer.
The federal charges were filed one day after authorities in Washington state said they had linked Muhammad and Malvo to the Feb. 16 shooting death of a 21-year-old woman whose aunt once worked for Muhammad. They also said they believed the two fired shots at a synagogue.
Tacoma, Wash., Police Chief David Brame said a man told the FBI last week and told authorities he had allowed Muhammad and Malvo to borrow his weapons while the pair were staying with him earlier this year.
Soldier was killed by friendly fire U.S. officials say
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — U.S. military investigators have concluded that a U.S. soldier killed at the outset of a major battle against al-Qaida forces in Afghanistan last March was hit by American forces, not hostile mortars as originally believed, a senior U.S. official said yesterday.
Chief Warrant Officer Stanley L. Harriman, 34, a native of Nix, Moe., and a member of the Army's Special Forces, was the first of eight Americans killed in Operation Anaconda, the last major battle in Afghanistan. The seven others were killed when two U.S. helicopters took enemy fire from al-Qaida defenders.
The Pentagon originally said Harriiman was killed by enemy mortar fire as his convoy of U.S. and Afghan forces moved into position at the outset of Operation Anaconda on March 2. But a subsequent investigation found that he was hit with gunfire from an Air Force AC-130 gunship that mistook his convoy for enemy forces, the senior official said, speaking on condition of anonymity.
Details of the investigation report, which is classified because of sensitive information about the AC-130 gunship, have not been made public.
Gen. Tommy Franks, who has run the war in Afghanistan from his Central Command headquarters, told reporters yesterday that the investigation report is in the hands of military lawyers. He said he had not yet seen it.
Another senior official, who discussed the matter on condition of anonymity, said Central Command has declined to discuss the findings publicly because of sensitivity over the legal implications of "friendly fire" cases. Two Air Force F-16 pilots who mistakenly bombed Canadian troops in Afghanistan last April, killing four Canadians, were charged with involuntary manslaughter, aggravated assault and dereliction of duty.
Shortly after Harriman's death, Franks said he had noticed that reports of a convoy of U.S. and Afghan forces coming under fire roughly coincided with reports of an AC-130 gunship attacking an enemy convoy.

Seniors lead with energy
By Ryan Greene rgreene@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
Four volleyball players, four seniors, four different paths to the University of Kansas, but they share a common goal.
That goal is to finish their Jayhawk careers with an appearance at the NCAA tournament.
Over the years, Jennifer Kraft, Jamie Morningstar, Molly Scavuzzo and Kylie Thomas have all witnessed the continued improvement of the Kansas volleyball program under coach Ray Bechard. While the team has had an outstanding 2002 campaign up to this point with a 16-5 record (6-5 in the Big 12 Conference) and the brilliant play of some of the squad's younger players, the seniors have had a dominant role, not necessarily in playing but in leadership.

"It's just interesting that some of them have a significant role and some don't, but they all four work extremely hard," Bechard said. "That's a very difficult thing to find when as a senior they all want to have a very dominant playing role. They all don't have that, but they all bring great energy and great enthusiasm."

Squad seeks to stifle Iowa State

Kansan sportswriter
Tonight, the Kansas volleyball squad will try continue its winning ways against Iowa State when the two teams meet at 7 p.m. in Ames, Iowa.
Kansas (15-5 overall, 6-5 in the Big 12 Conference) has won five straight matches against Iowa State (10-13, 1-10). In their last meeting, the Jayhawks swept
the Cyclones on Oct. 9 in Lawrence.
Kansas snapped a three-match losing skid Saturday, beating Oklahoma in Norman, Okla., 3-2.
Sophomore libero Jill Dorsey said coach Ray Bechard wanted the team to treat the second half of the conference season as a new season.
"We're 1-0 right now and that's how we want to look at it. The first win is important and we have to continue that versus Iowa State," Dorsey said.
The Cyclones also snapped a losing streak Saturday. Their sweep of Baylor was their first conference win in 20 matches.
"They're definitely not a 1-10 team. They're much better than what the record shows," Dorsey said. "They're a good blocking team that will push us on Wednesday."
The Cyclones rank second in the conference with 2.86 blocks and 17.05 digs per game. Senior outside hitter
Mandi Harms is second in the Big 12, averaging 1.35 blocks per game. Sophomore outside hitter Brittany Dalager's 3.99 digs per game is second in the conference.
"We've had success recently against Iowa State but it's a different team," Bechard said. "I think they're just looking for a reason why they can win and we can't give them that opportunity."

Whittemore's status questionable

Kansas football coach Mark Mangino feels at home in his football-practice wear and with a whistle around his neck.
This week, Mangino might as well be wearing a stethoscope as he has been playing the role of doctor because of an injury to junior quarterback Bill Whittemore. Mangino told reporters yesterday in his weekly press conference that he has been in close contact with the training staff concerning Whittemore's left knee that was hurt in the third quarter of last Saturday's loss to Missouri.
"Bill is getting intense treatment," Mangino said. "He's spent a great deal of
time since Sunday with our trainer Carol Jarosky, who's working tirelessly trying to get him ready to go."
The Nashville, Tenn., product was definitely on his way to becoming the Jayhawks' leading passer and second leading rusher through the first nine games of the season. Whittemore averages 185.1 yards passing per game combined with a per game average of 61 rushing vards
Whittemore has 549 total rushing yards this season which gives him the second most rushing yards in a single season by a Jayhawk quarterback since Nolan Cromwell's 1,124 in 1975.
Last Saturday in Columbia, Mo.. Whittemore was on his way to a career performance as he had completed 19 of 37 passes for 242 yards and two touchdowns before he left the game midway through the third quarter with his injury.
Mangino said Whittemore's condition is day-to-day and a decision on his playing status may not be reached until before game time Saturday.
"If you base it on Bill's toughness he'll be there, but if the injury in any way could put him in harm's way and cause further damage to him it won't be his decision," Mangino said. "It will be the medical staff advising me on how to handle it. Bill has no real say on whether he'll play or not because if it were up to him, he'd be out there question."
If Whittemore is not cleared to play against Kansas State, Mangino said sen-

Rozum sets standard for Kansas volleyball
Andi Rozum is good.
I came to this conclusion at Horejsi Family Athletics Center on Monday. I've known this all year long, seeing the freshman setter play numerous matches for the Kansas volleyball team. But she proved it to me after practice Monday, the night before the team departed for Ames, Iowa, to play Iowa State tonight.
Rozum, besides being a tremendous setter, also comes armed with a lethal jump serve. It's perhaps one of the hardest skills in volleyball to perfect, and doing so makes it one of the hardest skills in volleyball to defend.
Imagine yourself on the receiving end of this jump serve, coming at you at, oh, around 675 miles per hour. Imagine the ball moving to your head and just before it gets there, it drops to your feet. Imagine trying to bump this serve crisply, in play, and right to your setter.
Rozum made this nightmare a reality for me on Monday. While working on her jump serves after everyone else went home.I was dared to go and try to defend five of them.
"It used to be effective," she said, "I'm trying to get it back."
She must have been trying to trick me.
I took the challenge. I was unable to connect on the first three. The fourth one I hit due right, over the many rows of bleachers and off the back wall, about 50 feet from the nearest in-bounds line.
I made progress, I was pumped.
I managed to get the fifth one in play — softly over the net into enemy territory. In a game situation, a 6-foot-1 middle blocker would have smashed my face in on the return.
"You did good," Rozum said afterwards.
As challenging as that was, it probably isn't nearly as bad as the legacy Rozum had to fill when she came to the University of Kansas this fall.
Molly LaMere was the last setter to play for Kansas. She's one of the best the Jayhawks have ever had. In the single season assist record book, LaMere's three seasons as the starting setter rank second, third and fourth on the list. Most of the current Jayhawks were spoiled by

Athletes believe rituals lead to winning games
By Kelly McNearney

Kansan staff writer
Coaches and athletes at the University of Kansas rely upon training, preparation, skills and some superstitious habits.
"I have to wear tape on my right ring finger and my left thumb — otherwise I can't play," said Chris Marshall, senior golfer. "If I showed up to a tournament without tape, I wouldn't play."
Marshall has to put his right shoe on first and make special markings on the golf ball he uses during the game. He outlines the brand name of his golf balls in green and puts a line down the words on the opposite sides of the ball. He tried a new marking Sunday that brought him success.
Some coaches and athletes have daily rituals they practice to keep themselves focused.
"I put three circles around the logo for three birdies on the last three holes," he said. "I ended up going eagle-birdie-birdie so I will most definitely be doing that one again."
The Kansas men's basketball team is rich with superstitious players.
Nick Collison, senior forward, makes a wish every twelve hours at 11:11. Every time Jeff Graves, junior forward, comes to a light post or pole, he makes sure his walking companion does not walk on the opposite side—an act he calls 'splitting poles.'
Keith Langford, sophomore guard, switches shoes at halftime if he is having a bad game, and Wayne Simien, sophomore forward, is superstitious about putting on his jersey a certain way.
"I always had to wear a black sports bra," Royall said. "I don't know why, but if I didn't have a black sports bra on, I thought I was going to do bad."
Lauren Royall, senior rower, also had a superstition about her attire, but broke the streak when it let her down.
Royall said the superstition stemmed from a performance where she did well and happened to be wearing a black sports bra.
She said she then thought the undergarment brought her good luck.
Her superstitious ritual ended when she realized her apparel had no impact on her performance.
"Iimagine how mad I was when I wore the black sports bra and did bad," she said.
"Now I try not to pay attention to what I put on.I just put it on and go."
Ray Bechard, volleyball coach, said his players did a team-bonding, concentration exercise before walking onto the court at each match.
He said the players wanted to repeat the drill until they were satisfied their perfect routine would have a positive outcome.
Coaches also practice pregame rituals and have superstitions of their own.
Bechard follows the same routine every day that his team plays.
"I try to keep my game-day ritual as consistent as possible," he said.
Bechard's ritual begins with a 15-minute team meeting followed by 15 to 20 minutes of meditative quiet time.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 30).
Slow and steady wins the race this year, no matter what others may say. The tried and true works best to keep food on the table and a little money in the bank. Deal with people you know you can trust, and make sure they can trust you back. If you avoid risky propositions, you'll do fine.
Aries (March 21-April 19). Today is a 7. You may be rarin't to go, but circumstances seem to be against you. Is it a subversive plot? More likely it's a signal to be cautious.
Taurus (April 20-May 20). Today is a 6. You may suspect you're involved in a discussion that will never be completely resolved, but that's not the case. There are basic things you can all agree upon. Keep it simple.
Gemini (May 21-June 21). Today's a 7. You're smart, but that's not enough. You also need to be persistent. The first few dozen things you try may not work. Hang in there.
Cancer (June 22-July 22). Today is a 7. Fantasies may seem to be out of reach, but don't believe it. What's needed now is common sense. Start by following through on what you promised.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). Today is a 7.
Your trouble may be that you and your partner don't share the same objective. Better find out before proceeding. It's always good to know.
C
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Today is a 6.
Looks like somebody's leaning on you
heavily, perhaps applying guilt to get you
to do something. Tell them you'll do it for
free, and they can keep the guilt. You
don't need any.
T
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22). Today is a 7. Others can't see eye to eye. You can help. Act as a translator. They're all so caught up in their own ideas, they've having trouble listening.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Today is a 7.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21). Today is a 8. Frustrations you're experiencing won't last forever. You're naturally patient and persistent. Be willing to modify your expectations, too.
A person who's been trying to tell you what to do may actually be right. Consider that possibility. Keep travel to a minimum.
Crab
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Today is a 6. You can make a difficult job appear effortless. But it's not, as you well know. You're on the right track, however. Never let them see you sweat.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Today is a 8. It would be wonderful if we all got along, but sometimes we don't. Listen to the dissenting opinion to see if it has some merit.
LION
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). Today is a 6.
This is not an easy situation for you. Luckily,
you have inner strength. Draw on it,
even if it seems unreasonable.

Players file for free agency
Atlanta's Greg Maddux, winner of four NL Cy Young Awards, was also among the 32 players who filed on the second day of the 15-day filing period. Among others filing were New York Yankees third baseman Robin Ventura, Boston outfielder Rickey Henderson and Seattle first baseman John Olerud.
LAUTENBEHALT
NEWYORK — Jeff Kent filed for free agency yesterday, two days after the San Francisco Giants lost to Anaheim in Game 7 of the World Series.
The Associated Press
Washing hands
"Hopefully, we'll be able to bring Jeff back if he has the interest in coming back," assistant general manager Ned Colletti said. "It's one of our main priorities, providing he has an interest in coming back. He's been one of our top players the last six seasons, and productive in the middle of the lineup. He's one of the reasons we've been successful."
Of the 181 eligible players,102 already have filed. While they can speak with all teams,they cannot discuss contract terms with new teams until Nov. 13. Until then,they may negotiate only with their former clubs.
Kent, a 34-year-old second baseman who was the NL MVP in 2000, hit .313 with 37 homers and 108 RBIs this season and made $6 million. He hit three homers and drove in seven runs in the World Series.
"We've always had good communications with the Giants. I assume at some point we'll talk," Kent's agent, Jeff Klein, said yesterday.
Three players filed for free agency yesterday after teams declined their options: Philadelphia right-hander Terry Adams ($5.4 million), Seattle right-hander James Baldwin ($4 million) and Oakland catcher Greg Myers ($1.1 million). Baldwin gets a $500,000 buyout and Myers gets $100,000.
Maddux, 36, was 16-6 with a 2.62 ERA this season, second behind Arizona's Randy Johnson (2.52). Maddux's agent, Scott Boras, said Sunday he wouldn't begin contract talks for several weeks.
S
First, the Giants must make decisions about their general manager and manager. General manager
Brian Sabean's contract is up, along with manager Dusty Baker's.
Left-hander Doug Creek, let go by Seattle at the end of the season, agreed to a $700,000, one-year contract with Toronto, which gets an $800,000 option for 2004. He was 3-2 with a 5.82 ERA in 52 relief appearances for Seattle and Tampa Bay this year.

Yeah, I just got back from Columbia, Mo., for the KU/MU football game. And I've just gotta give major props to whoever changed the gas station sign from "Burn KU, go MU" to "Burn MU, go KU" before the game. It was pretty cool driving into town and seeing a sign that said "go KU," and having all the Missouri fans have to drive by that.
OK, to the guy who was complaining about the hardships he goes through for liking Mizzou, you really need to shut up. That's like complaining of intense heat when you worship Satan. Cry me a river. Accept it, Mizzou sucks. I am quite agitated after reading all of the pro-Missouri garbage that was in Friday's UDK. What side are you guys on? Have I taught you nothing? Have I not called in every day to tell you that Mizzou sucks? This is absolutely unacceptable. Mizzou sucks.

You know, I just realized something really depressing. I'm a senior voice major at KU, and I haven't seen a single game of Monday night football since my senior year...of high school.

Yeah. Is there gonna be walk-on trouts for kicker next week on campus? Because we suck at kicking. And, oh yeah, Mizzou sucks, too.

Yeah, I was at the football game on Saturday, and I don't know if anyone else knows this, but Johnny Beck really sucks. I think we should put Baby Jay in. I think he'd be a lot better kicker.

Pair of Buffaloes,
Texas back earn Big 12 honors
Colorado free safety Medford Moorer and Colorado punter Mark Mariscal also were named players of the week on defense and special teams, respectively.
DALLAS — Texas running back Cedric Benson, who rushed for 199 yards and two touchdowns in Saturday's game against Iowa State, was named Big 12 offensive player of the week.
Benson's 199 yards was the most of any player in the Big 12 and second nationally in games Saturday.
Early on, Benson carried the ball nine times for 61 yards, including a one-yard TD run on the opening drive of the game.
He later scored on a 59-yard run that allowed Texas to reclaim the lead 14-10 early in the third quarter. Benson registered 160 of his 199 yards on Texas' three scoring drives which totaled 240 yards.
Moorer made eight solo tackles, had three tackles for a loss including one sack, third three-down stops, one fourth down stop, a pass deflection, two interceptions with 69 yards in returns, and one return for a 51-yard touchdown that gave Colorado a 37-13 victory over Texas Tech. The win kept the Buffaloes undefeated in Big 12 play at 4-0.
Mariscal kicked four punts for 231 yards, a 57.8 average,and one inside the 20-yard line with a net average of 53 yards per kick. Three of his punts were more than 60 yards,including a 66 yarder.
HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBAL Accident victims still hospitalized after wreck
HAYS — The driver of a charter bus carrying students from the Kansas School for the Deaf and one of the passengers remained hospitalized in good condition on Tuesday after a fatal crash
Ronald Zimmerman, 60, of Raytown, Mo., and Tanna Kolb, 15, of Wichita, Kan., were still hospitalized from Sunday's crash, which killed an assistant football coach for the school. Zimmerman was at a Hays hospital yesterday, while Kolb was at a Wichita hospital.
Thirty-four people from the school, including players, coaches and cheerleaders, were aboard the bus when it missed a curve on U.S.40, went down a grassy embankment and landed upside down at the bottom of a ravine in Wallace County.
Sheriff Larry Townsend said speed did not appear to be a factor in the crash. And Kansas Highway Patrol motor carrier inspector Penny Fryback said Zimmerman appeared to have complied with laws limiting his time behind the wheel.

ior Jonas Weatherbie would assume the reigns of the Kansas offense.
Weatherbie replaced Whitmore last Saturday against Missouri and was 1-of-6 passing, leading the offense to 12 fourthquarter yards.
Even with the poor performance of Weatherbie against the Tigers, Mangino said he had confidence in Weatherbie, whose father, Charlie Weatherbie, is a former Navy head football coach.
"Jonas is a guy that's been around for a while, but he's a very intelligent guy," Mangino said. "He's been around football his whole life."
The other candidate for the quarterback job is second-year freshman Brian Luke, who
received medical clearance Oct. 21 after his right hand was in a cast from an injury he suffered during two-a-day practices.
Mangino said he sees a bright future for Luke, but he and his staff told the freshman after the spring game in April that Luke had to work on his speediness to be effective in the Kansas offensive philosophy, which relies heavily on the quarterback being able to run with the ball.
Before the season started. Luke spent time trying to develop his quickness the old-fashioned way.
"It was a good opportunity for me to improve my foot speed, so I'd go and get a jump rope from the strength coaches and worked on that," Luke said. "It helped me to do different foot speed drills."
Weatherbie and Luke give Mangino options at the quarterback position, but Mangino said
"If he's not ready to go this Saturday then we'll just continue to monitor his progress, and if he's ready to go the following week we'll use him then."
Mark Mangino
KansastFootball coach
that Whittemore could still be back for the Nebraska and Oklahoma State games if he was not able to play against Kansas State.
"If he's not ready to go this Saturday then we'll just continue to monitor his progress, and if he's ready to go the following week we'll use him then," Mangino said.

OSU brings balanced offense
Daily O'Collegian via U-Wire Oklahoma State University
By Katy Jones
STILLWATER, Okla. — The last time the Oklahoma State football team beat Texas &M, Barry Sanders led the way. Sanders helped the Cowboys to a 52-15 win on Lewis Field in 1988.
OSU will host A&M on Homecoming Saturday.
And the Cowboys (3-4, 1-2 Big 12), don't seem to have too much of a problem breaking losing streaks after the Oct. 19, 41-years in-the-making upset of Nebraska — 24-21. The Aggies lost to the Huskers Saturday, 38-31.
Cowboy coach Les Miles said the matchup against A&M (5-3, 2-2) will not be similar to the NU game.
"Just because we rushed the ball well against Nebraska, it has nothing to do with Texas A&M," Miles said Monday. "The matchup is totally different. We
enjoy the idea that we will run the football, we have success running the football — our ideal mix is 50-50 (pass and rush percentages) and 200-200 (yards on pass and rush offense). That's what we're shooting for."
Miles added that NU's running game is very different from OSU's. "Nebraska runs three different options, four different quarterback carries," Miles said. "They throw the ball when they have to, they put three backs in the backfield — that is so different than us in terms of our running attack and their running attack.
"We see and observe how Nebraska did it, but Jammal Lord (NU quarterback) will not be carrying the ball for Oklahoma State, and we'll attack them differently — our style."
And the Cowboys' style is a more balanced attack. While NU put up 381 rushing yards and 116 yards against the Aggies,
OSU had 195 yards rushing and 192 yards passing in the win over NU.
"Nebraska rushes the football as good as anybody in the conference, and they go in there and they attack A&M's defense rushing the football — that's Nebraska," Miles said. "Texas throws 70-of-90 snaps, and that's how they move the football. I think those are the widest extremes of the conference and I think we would fit very squarely in between there, and I think A&M's defense — there's some opportunities for us to attack them.
"I like our matchup."
OSU junior defensive lineman Greg Richmond said the week off for the Cowboys gave them a head start to get acquainted with A&M's game. "I was kind of hoping that we could have just went on ahead and just got to tee it up with 'em (A&M)," Richmond said.
Sooners hope to top Buffaloes
The Associated Press
NORMAN, Okla. — A victory this week by No. 2 Oklahoma would be the Sooners' first over Colorado since 1988.
That was nine meetings, five coaches and seemingly a lifetime ago for the Sooners, who have been among the nation's elite teams the past three years but for a decade prior to that were seldom much more than ordinary.
When they beat Iowa State two weeks ago, the Sooners (7-
"Our history there for a period of time wasn't real strong against anybody," coach Bob Stoops said yesterday.
0, 3-0 Big 12) improved to 10-1 against top-10 teams under Stoops. In the 10 seasons before he got the job, Oklahoma was 2-13-1 against teams in the top 10.
Colorado holds a 8-0-1 advantage over the Sooners since 1989. The nine straight games is the most Oklahoma has ever gone winless against any opponent.
Gary Gibbs spent six years as Oklahoma's coach, taking over in 1989 after Barry Switzer was forced out. Gibbs was 0-5-1 against Colorado. The Buffaloes were ranked in the top 10 four times during that six year stretch and won the national championship in 1990.
In Howard Schnellenberger's lone year as coach, 1995, the Colorado-Oklahoma game was a matchup of top-10 teams. Colorado won 38-17 in Norman, the first loss of what would become a 5-5-1 season.
John Blake coached three years at Oklahoma, going 12-22. Because of the rotation used in the Big 12, he faced Colorado only once, losing 27-25 in his final season.
"Since coach Switzer left in '88, we hadn't beaten much of anybody that was ranked," Stoops said. "We're a little bit different team right now in the last couple of years than we were through that time."

* Selected winners will be featured in the weekly "Beat the Kansan" selections column the following Friday. Note: These selected winners column will not be eligible for that particular week. Contests are not eligible to win two weeks in a row.
* At the end of each grand prize winner will be selected from all the entries received that "beat the Kansan" during the season – not just from the pools of five each week. In other words, even if a "winning" contestant is not one of the five picked for the prizes during the season, that entrant will be eligible for the final grand prize.
* Any decision by the Kansan judges is final. Kansan employees are not eligible.

Angels celebrate title at Disneyland, parades
The Associated Press
ANAHEIM, Calif. — With Jackie. Autry riding alongside Mickey Mouse, tens of thousands of screaming Angels fans cheered their championship team yesterday at a Disneyland parade.
Manager Mike Scioscia held the World Series trophy aloft in a theme park awash in Angels red, with shirts, hats and faces painted with halos.
Many people lined up outside the theme park before dawn in hopes of getting good seats along what was being called the highway to heaven.
Autry, the widow of Gene Autry, who formed the expansion team in 1961 before selling it to
ANGELS
The Walt Disney Co. rode in the parade with Mickey
Mouse.
A second parade followed, beginning at Arrowhead Pond, home of the NHL's Mighty Ducks, and ending at Edison Field, home of the Angels.
Players, coaches and their families rode on top of a dozen fire trucks and other emergency vehicles to the stadium, where a rally was held.
The parade and rally at Edison Field were free. However, fans had to buy admission to Disneyland and a later event featuring the players at Disney's California
Adventure park. Disney has come under criticism for charging fans for the events at the two parks.
Cherie-Amor Rodriguez, 17, said she got her mother's permission to skip school.
"I probably shouldn't tell you that, but we wanted to make sure we were here," she said from Disneyland.
Disney characters carrying ThunderStix and other paraphernalia took to the streets to rally the crowd.
"I'm here for these wonderful guys called the Angels," Linda Johnen said, She held Thunder-Stix on which she had written. "They are the wind beneath my wings."
Brewers hire former catcher Ned Yost as new manager
The Associated Press
MILWAUKEE — Atlanta Braves coach Ned Yost was hired as manager of the Milwaukee Brewers yesterday, returning to the team where he was a backup catcher in the 1980s.
The 47-year-old Yost agreed to a two-year contract with a club option for 2005. Financial terms were not announced.
"Ned showed great determination for this opportunity," general manager Doug Melvin said in a statement. "He has enthusiasm for the organization and brings a great desire to help us to return to winning baseball."
Yost will replace the fired Jerry Royster, who was fired
Bri
after the Brewers finished with a franchise worst56-106 record this season.
Royster replaced Davey Lopes in April.
Melvin's other candidates included Brewers bench coach Cecil Cooper. Arizona Diamondbacks bench coach Bob Melvin (no relation) and New York Yankees third-base coach Willie Randolph.
Yost interviewed for a major league managerial job for the first time with the Brewers.
The 47-year-old Yost has been the Braves' third-base coach the last four seasons, a
position he believes has groomed him to become a manager.
"I'm not sure I was ready four years ago because I'd never been tested," Yost said after interviewing with the Brewers earlier this month.
"I'd never been in situations that were pressure situations. But when you become a third-base coach for a championship caliber team, it's almost like you become a player
"Your decisions have direct impact on a game, and you better make them correctly and you better make them quickly," he said.
Yost was a backup catcher on the 1982 Milwaukee team that won the AL pennant.

Poll says Nebraskans still like coach
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — A poll taken around the Nebraska football team's rousing, come-from-behind win over Texas A&M indicated that coach Frank Solich's supporters outnumber his critics in the state.
The results of a statewide poll released yesterday indicate that 53 percent of Nebraskans approve of how Solich is handling his job as the Huskers' head coach.

Twenty-one percent of the 604 people surveyed said they disapproved of Solich's job performance.
Twenty-six percent had no opinion.
The telephone survey was conducted Oct. 23 through Monday by Midwest Survey and Research of Omaha, a public opinion research company.
N N
The margin of error was plus or minus 3.98 percentage points.
A poll of Nebraskans taken after Nebraska's loss to Oklahoma State two weeks ago indicated that 53 percent of Nebraskans still approve of the job coach Frank Solich is doing.
The poll, which also dealt with political candidates, asked: "Switching directions now ... Do you approve or disapprove of the way that Frank Solich is handling his job as head football coach of the University of Nebraska?"
Solich was not immediately available for comment.
The company started making calls for the poll before the Huskers upset Texas A&M, overcoming a 17-point deficit in the second half to win 38-31 on Saturday.
The week before, Nebraska had lost to Oklahoma State for the first time since 1961.
Some fans have been extremely critical of Solich and his coaching staff this season as the 6-3 Cornhuskers have fallen out of The Associated Press Top 25 for the first time since 1981.
The poll released yesterday has been the only one done this season.
In it, men were more opinionated than women about Solich's job performance.
Fifty-seven percent of the men surveyed said they approved of Solich's work, 24 percent disapproved and 19 percent had no opinion.
For women, 49 percent approved of Solich's job, 18 percent disapproved and 33 had no opinion.
Do you approve or disapprove of the way that Frank Solich is handling his job as head football coach of the University of Nebraska?
'HUSKER FANS SAY THE STILL APPROVE OF SOLICH
Yes 53 percent
No 21 percent
No opinion 26 percent

Solich is in his fifth year coaching the Cornhuskers.
A longtime assistant coach, Solich took the helm after Tom Osborne retired following the 1997 season.
Iowa State tries to revive run game
AMES, Iowa - Brian Thompson, front and center. It's time to show the Iowa State coaches what you can do.
In losses to Oklahoma and Texas the past two weeks, Iowa State has rushed for only 75 yards.
Coach Dan McCarney is trying to revive the running game and he's turning to Thompson. a redshirt freshman, to make it happen.
Thompson won't start in Saturday's home game against Missouri, but he'll definitely play. McCarney said yesterday.
"He's made a lot of progress, his mental errors have been few in practice, he really has done a nice job," McCarney said. "We're going to get him in the game in the first half, that I can promise you. Whether it's two snaps or 20, I don't
know."
McCarney said he'll probably start Mike Wagner, then put Thompson into the game, with Hiawatha Rutland as the third back. Rutland, who leads the team in rushing with 528 yards, has been slowed by an ankle injury.
Rutland rushed for 353 yards in Iowa State's first three games but has gained only 175 in the last six. He had only 21 yards on 13 carries in last Saturday's 21-10 loss at Texas.
"Hiawatha is still not 100 percent," McCarney said.
"He didn't look like it. We expect more out of him. He's got to play better.
"He's a great team guy, a tough guy, but there's a real good chance you're going to see Brian in the game second on Saturday."

'Huskers lineman charged
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — Prosecutors said they will refile assault charges against an offensive lineman on the Nebraska football team after he failed to comply with terms of his diversion program, the Lincoln Journal Star reported yesterday.
Tamotu "Junior" Tagoa'i, 22, allegedly hit his then-22-year-old girlfriend in the jaw Oct. 23, 2001, at their apartment during a discussion of their problems. Two months later, birth records indicate the woman gave birth to Tagoa'i's daughter, the newspaper reported.
Lancaster County Attorney Gary Lacey said Monday his office decided to file third-degree
assault charges against Tagoa'i when he failed to complete terms of the diversion program.
Among the unmet requirements cited were failure to verify completion of 30 community service hours and failure to verify completion of a mandatory domestic violence prevention course, authorities said.
Nebraska coach Frank Solich told the Journal Star on Monday he plans to look into the matter.
"We will take action," Solich said.
"As to what action is appropriate, it remains to be seen what factors are involved.
"Leading up to this point, the reports I had were that things were going fine, but apparently
that's not the case. That's all I can sav at this point," Solich said.
Authorities said they tried to notify Tagoa'i of the diversion termination but received a returned letter with no forwarding address.
The 6-foot-2,300-pound lineman from Hauula,Hawaii,is scheduled for a Nov. 7 arraignment.
Tagoa'i is the second person associated with the football program who has had charges refiled against them after failing to comply with terms of the diversion program. Former Nebraska running back Thunder Collins had his misdemeanor assault case delayed Monday for one week at the request of his attorney.

New Orleans cleans up streets
NEW ORLEANS — Child tap dancers, street mimes, panhandlers and con men have become fixtures in New Orleans' rollicking French Quarter.
But now they are getting the bum's rush.
New Orleans is cracking down on street performers and minor crime in its most famous neighborhood,pleasing many of the roughly 4,000 people who live there.
Residents say the French Quarter's reputation as a playground of sin has gotten out of hand, overshadowing its fine restaurants and 19th-century architecture.
"Upscale and downscale coexist here, and that's fine. That's the basic character of New Orleans," said Louis Sabuc, a gallery owner and French Quarter resident. "But sleaze and dirt and litter and hustling is not part of New Orleans. We're very permissive in a lot of ways, but per-
missiveness does not extend to outright abuse by people who want to rip you off."
Others wonder if the city is trying to sanitize the historic area into a Louisiana version of Disney World.
"Why would you come to New Orleans expecting a quiet, clean place?" said Arthur Walker, who reads tourists' palms on Jackson Square, in the center of the French Quarter. "New Orleans is New Orleans. It ain't Orlando."
The cleanup began over the summer, as police began arresting homeless people for obstructing sidewalks, drunkenness, public urination and other offenses.
Children who tap dance for tips were cited for curfew violations.
"We had a host of citizen complaints. It's not something we just arbitrarily decided to go in and do," police spokesman Paul
Accardo said.
A recent poll found that 70 percent of New Orleans residents strongly support" the effort, and 18 percent "somewhat support' it.
Those polled also showed some concern about the cleanup. Twenty-one percent strongly agreed and 24 percent somewhat agreed that "restricting the activities of street people and vendors may cause the French Quarter to lose some of its character."
"It's not just about cleaning up the sidewalks and the parks. It's about cleansing the neighborhood of people who don't fit in: poor whites and working-class blacks," said Mike Howells, a Jackson Square palm reader who helped organize opposition to the cleanup. "If they don't work at a business here, many of the neighborhood real estate companies feel they shouldn't be here at all."

Chiefs receivers plan to step up their game
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Eddie Kennison and Johnnie Morton were supposed to be the downfield receiving threats for the Kansas City Chiefs.
At midseason, Kennison and Morton now seem almost like afterthoughts in the NFL's highest-scoring offense. They still get plenty of contact with opposing defensive backs — but they're the ones initiating the hits now, as blockers for running back Priest Holmes.
"I don't want to say it's time for us to pick it up." Morton said yesterday, a day after coach Dick Vermeil said the wide receivers needed
to be more involved in Kansas City's offense.
"But it's time for us to do our part, and make the most of our opportunities."
Morton, who had no catches in Sunday's 20-10 win over the Denver Broncos, had 1,000-yard receiving yards in four of his last five years with Detroit before coming to Kansas City in the off-season. He hasn't been this marginalized in an offense since his rookie season in 1994, when he backed up Herman Moore and Brett Perriman.
But yesterday, after the first practice of Kansas City's bye week, Morton struck a careful balance between welcoming any
KC
additional balls thrown his way and accepting the less-than-glamorous job of springing Holmes.
"We'll be blocking for Priest, and he'll get past us because we opened it up, and that's fulfilling," Morton said.
"From a receiver's standpoint, that's not the most exciting thing to do, but sometimes that's the way it is."
Holmes, the NFL's leading rusher and touchdown scorer with 857 yards and 15 TDs, also has become the Chiefs' go-to receiver, with more catches (51)
than Kennison (22) and Morton (16) combined.
After eight weeks, Holmes has touched the ball on 48 percent _ 241 for 501 — of Kansas City's rushing attempts and completed passes.
Add in All-Pro tight end Tony Gonzalez's 33 catches, and the wide receiver' share of the passing pie shrinks even more.
"They want the ball more. It's no secret," Gonzalez said. "These guys are used to going out there and making big plays. But we're still going out there and putting up points.
up points.
"As long as Priest is playing at that MVP-type level, we can't complain."
Gonzalez, who has faced double coverage all season, has another reason for wanting to see Morton and Kennison get more opportunities.
"Once those guys get the ball, I won't get bracketed as much," he said.
It doesn't'matter who's making catches, Kennison said, as long as the Chiefs continue their prolific (34.2 points per game) scoring pace.
"You have so many weapons on this club that you're not going to be able to catch nine or 10 balls a game," Kennison said. "There's no need for it. We've got Priest, Tony Gonzalez, (fullback) Tony Richardson — guys all over the
place."
Vermeil said Monday — and repeated yesterday — that the Chiefs' coaching staff never set out to turn Morton and Kennison into Holmes' downfield escorts.
"It isn't always the fault of the offensive coordinator or the game plan." Vermiln said. "Sometimes things just don't work out. I would say 75 to 80 percent of Priest Holmes' catches come from trying to go downfield and not being able to and dumping the ball off to him.
Neither Vermeil nor the wide receivers, though, faulted quarterback Trent Green for making quick reads and getting the ball to Holmes in a hurry.

NEW YORK — The U.S. Olympic Committee ruled that New York did not act improperly during the bidding process to play host to the 2012 Games, the Daily News reported yesterday.
The ruling Monday came just five days before New York and co-
finalist San Francisco will each have an hour to make their final presentations to the USOC.
"I don't anticipate any further activity involving this issue," USOC spokesman Michael Moran told the newspaper.
The winner between New York and San Francisco will enter the international competition that
will conclude in 2005, when the International Olympic Committee selects the city.
Jay Kriegel, executive director of NYC2012, confirmed to the newspaper that the city received written notification from the USOC.
"We have been advised by the USOC that their review has been
completed," Kriegel said.
Headded that the USOCasked the city "not to discuss the details," of the report.
Last month, the USOC said it was reviewing comments Mayor Michael Bloomberg made during a trip to Athens, Greece, to determine whether he violated bidding rules.
But on Monday, USOC officials specified that they reviewed the entire NYC2012 bid process for violations and didn't investigate Bloomberg, the newspaper reported.
Last month, Moran said there was no probe into a Sept. 6 meeting between U.S. Sen. Hillary Clinton and Olympic selection
committee representative Anita DeFrantz.
Under rules strengthened after the Salt Lake City bidding scandal, the USOC bans cities bidding for the Olympics from participating in promotional activities.
"The USOC does not conduct investigations of U.S. senators," Moran said.

Lawrence is a long way from Northern California, but Kraft saw opportunity as a Jayhawk. After leading Saint Francis High School to state championships in 1997 and 1998, Kraft had to work her way back to the top under Bechard.
"I just think it's just gonna be cool to know that I left my mark somewhere here," Kraft said. "I have a lot of family here in Lawrence so it's cool for them to be, be here, that and maybe bring their kids to come see it and hopefully it'll stay there for a while so when I have kids it can be there too."
moment of her Kansas volleyball career Saturday in the team's 3-2 win in Norman, Okla., over the University of Oklahoma. Kraft had five service aces in the game, giving her 139 for her career. The record of 134 by Julie Woodruff had stood since 1991.
"When I first got here my role was just to play defense and that's it," Kraft said. "As the years have gone by I've taken more of a leadership role and a lead by example role."

After seeing limited time on the floor in her first year at KU, Scavuzzo burst onto the scene last season, finishing second on the team with 325 kills, including 10 or more kills in 17 different matches.

One coach in particular that has helped Scavuzzo at KU is assistant Christi Posey, who was her head coach at Blue Valley Northwest. Scavuzzo was named All-Johnson County, All-Sun Country, and All-Eastern Kansas League.
"I wanted to play at a Division-I school. The reason I also stayed here was because I wanted to see my little sister and brother grow up, and I wanted to be able to watch them play in high school," Morningstar said. "I have been able to be close to my family and I've gotten to play within the Big 12 Conference, which is one of the strongest conferences in the nation."

son, Scavuzzo said the entire team was still working toward the goal of hearing its name tabbed for the NCAA tournament.
Morningstar has flourished as a defensive specialist over the years, playing in all 31 of the team's matches last season, including three starts. She recorded 173 digs over the course of the year and was named to the first team Academic All-Big 12.
"I really liked the atmosphere and to play Division-I volleyball was my goal." Thomas said. "This was a great opportunity and I really like the school and program and I love the girls here, so I'm really glad I made the decision."
Scavuzzo defected from the area to play at the University of Wyoming. After a redshirt year in Laramie, Wyo., she had a successful freshman campaign with 99 kills and 28 assists, but something drew her back to Kansas.
Thomas, middle back from Sutherland, Neb., said she had never regretted her decision to come to Lawrence. She has given everything and more to make this program better.
For the quartet of seniors, the rest of this season's schedule will most likely mark the final time they play competitive volleyball. It may be hard to swallow after having devoted so much time to the game over the course of their lives, but there is one ending to this year that would make the last stand more comforting.
In high school, Thomas was first team Division I all-state as
"It's close to home and a stable coaching staff," Scavuzzo said, "and one thing that I wasn't even looking at while I was at Wyoming was the NCAA tournament, which we have an awesome shot at this year."
Last season, Thomas set career highs in both digs (39) and kills (247), including a career-high 17 kills against Baylor last October. She topped off the season by being named first team Academic All-Big 12. Thomas can attribute her success on the court to what she does off of it.
well as second-team Super State her senior year.
"I just come in and try to work my hardest," Thomas said. "Intensity. I always come in and work hard at practice and weights every day."
Scavuzzo, an outside hitter from Overland Park, is different from the other seniors because she has not been with the program for four years.
"Our goal for the end of the season is to be chosen on the selection show for the NCAA tournament on Dec. 1; that's our realistic goal." Morningstar said, "My expectations for our team is that if we play the way we know we can, we have a chance to do that."

Student reservists prepare to deploy
They are preparing their mobilization packages — updating medical records, being fitted for gas masks, making financial preparations and readying wills — in case they are deployed.
By Jenna Goepfert
jgoepfert@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
With tensions mounting between the United States and Iraq, University of Kansas students in the military reserves are bracing for its impact.
"Our platoon sergeant says it's highly likely that we'll be mobilized in the immediate future," said Justin Montgomery, Wellsville sophomore, in the Army Reserve.
Montgomery said he would be sent to Ft. Riley once he received his orders, and from there he could remain to run the base or be sent to Iraq.
He said mandatory drills had grown longer in recent weeks. That made him nervous but never regretful of his decision to join the military, he said.
“It's not like I want to go, but if we went, I wouldn't have a problem going.” Montgomery said.
About 295 KU students are classified as being on active duty in the Army, the Air Force and the Navy.
Lindsey Gold/Kansan
These students, once mobilized, would withdraw from all their classes
at the University and be reimbursed for tuition.
"It a little bit different being up here as a college student at KU one day and in the big sandbox the next," said Jonathan Kincaid, Olathe sophomore, in the Army Reserve. "It's quite the contrast."
Kincaid said he would work in civilian affairs in Iraq, relocating Iraqi citizens from the battlefield to civilian camps to keep them safe.
A family tradition of military service has kept Stacy Fagan, Wellington junior, calm.
Her father and brother were both active in the military, and she is part of the Air Force Reserve.
He said apprehension about future attacks was a natural reaction, but supporting his country was more important.
"When you're in the reserves, you realize there's a job to be done," Kincaid said. "You just got to step up to the plate. So fear is not an option."
Fagan said she could not be deployed until late November, when her unit returns from England. She was excused from duty because she was in school.
"I'd try to think of it as an adventure or as something not a lot of people get to

War protests don't affect ROTC members
Rv Lindsev Hodel
ihodel@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Even though some students have protested the potential war against Iraq, some ROTC members said they had not felt many personal attacks on campus prompted by their relationship with the military.
Capt. James Cooper, professor of the Naval division of ROTC, said there was no comparison between the public's response to the Vietnam War 30 years ago and the possible war in Iraq.
Cooper remembers when the public was not as supportive of the military as it is today. He graduated from the University of Kansas in 1974, attending school and participating in the ROTC program during the Vietnam War. He said recent protesters were not as negative toward ROTC members as were
protesters in the past.
"What is going on today and what went on in the '70s are polar opposites," he said. "People then wanted to take a lot out on ROTC members, but today, most people divorce ROTC students from national politics."
Protesters commonly gathered around the Military Science Building in the '70s to target the ROTC program, Cooper said.
"Thaven't seen any protesters around the building yet," he said.
Holly Hollenbeck, Neodesha freshman, also said she had not encountered hostility from students on campus. Hollenbeck is enrolled in the Air Force ROTC program.
"Mostly people have been telling me it's cool that I am serving my country and how they wish they had enough guts to do it," she said.
U. S. foreign policy has been a topic
tor debate in many of Alex Krutz's classes. The Overland Park senior is a political science major and a member of the army division of the ROTC program.
"I haven't heard many negative things being said in my classes from professors or students," he said. "From what I'm seeing, most people support the war and say we just need to do it the right way."
Many people make assumptions that all ROTC members support action against Iraq, said Aaron Hedrick, Sparks, Nev, senior. He said these military stereotypes came from a lack of
Because he has a ROTC contract with KU, Krutz said he wasn't worried that the National Guard, of which he also a member, would call him to service.
But other ROTC members have noticed subtle differences in students' attitudes since talk of a possible war began.
understanding the issue.
"People in ROTC may or may not agree with a war," he said. "We need to perform our jobs without letting our personal feelings get in the way."
ROTC members are also not allowed to discuss personal feelings about U.S. foreign policy.Hedrick said.
"Whether or not an individual supports or opposes U.S. foreign policy doesn't matter," he said. "We will support the directions given to us."
Hedrick also said he had noticed increased public support of the military.
"The U.S. public has been much more supportive in the last 20 years than before and during the Vietnam War," he said. "It will be interesting to see what happens with Iraq and how that affects public opinion."

K-State site helps make local parties successful
By Justin Henning jhenneng@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Walking up and down the streets of the student ghetto in search of parties is no longer necessary.
Richard Maxwell, operator of ksunderground.com, has tweaked the fiveyear-old party posting site into one of the region's most popular cyber fliers.
"My friends and I just got drunk one night and made a Web site;" Maxwell said about the site's creation in 1995.
The site originally dealt only with the Manhattan area and has grown to almost 2,000 users in the last seven years. Maxwell, a senior at Kansas State University, said that several months ago his site branched out to include Lawrence. The expansion was partly due to the demise of partyku.com, a site focusing on the Lawrence party scene.
Scott Bideau, Chanute graduate student who created partyku.com, said he did not want to work on the site and pay for it anymore.
"It was just people making suggestions and complaints without offering anything constructive," he said.
Enter ksunderground.com, which offers users a place to log on and chat in forums about previous or upcoming parties. Users can even log on to play card games, which Maxwell made himself.
"The wild cards took me days to code," he said.
Despite the similar content of their sites, Maxwell and Bideau do not know each other well. Bideau simply gave Maxwell some e-mail addresses and places to get started when he learned that ksunderground.com was coming to Lawrence.
The site can replace passed-out fliers and colored chalkings by providing a laundry list of parties in the Lawrence, Manhattan and Wichita areas with the click of a computer's mouse. But while it offers convenient information about parties, the site also has its detractors.
"We don't want people to not drink, we just want them to do it responsibly," said Mary Chappell, Director of Recreation Services and member of Mothers Against Drunk Driving.
Maxwell is also sure police officers are logging on to ksunderground.com to keep tabs on local party scenes.
"Every cop in town knows who I am," Maxwell said, which is why he said it

The group, known as KU UNICEF, is assisting the United Nations Children's Fund by asking kids to collect money in a small orange box they can carry with them while going door-to-door asking for candy. Lawrence residents are encouraged to drop a handful of change into the orange box along with the candy they drop into children's sacks.
Members of the University of Kansas student group Campus Initiative for United Nations Children's Fund are asking trick-or-treaters to request more than just candy this Halloween.

Woman charged with felony after undressing in airport
EVANSVILLE, Ind.—A French woman faces a felony charge of disorderly conduct at an airport after she allegedly undressed to her waist in an angry outburst at security screeners.
A judge Tuesday found probable cause for the charge against Eliane Yvonne Marcele Aguillaume, 56, of Paris. She also faces misdemeanor charges of resisting law enforcement and public indecency.
Prosecutors will consider whether the incident rose to the level of a felony, Deputy Prosecutor Dawnya Taylor said.
Authorities said Aguillaume kept reaching inside her sweater, forcing guards to re-search her, during a routine screening Monday at Evansville Regional Airport.
After a screener attempted to use a metal-detecting wand, Aguillaume became upset and allegedly removed her sweater, shirt and bra.
Mexican singer kidnapped, sisters plead to be left alone
WORLD
MEXICO CITY—Mexican Latin Grammy performer Thalia's two sisters, freed after relatives paid a ransom to kidnappers, are pleading to the press and public to leave them alone.
Laura Zapata and Ernestina Sodi were kidnapped Sept. 22 after they left a play in which Zapata had a starring role. Zapata was released 18 days later, and Sodi was freed Saturday.
She said her sister Ernestina was in "poor health" after being detained for more than a month. Zapata added that the two would leave Mexico, but she didn't say where they would go or for how long.
The family asked police to stay out of the case and hired a private team to carry out negotiations with the kidnappers.
Zapata said Thalia's husband, Sony Music Chairman Tommy Mottola, did not help pay the ransom.

Speaker to address affirmative action
By Kate Nelson
knelson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
An affirmative action advocate from Michigan will speak about racial diversity tomorrow.
Shanta Driver, a Detroit lawyer, supports affirmative action, which allows educators and employers to consider race in their hiring or recruiting. She's helping to defend her alma matter, the University of Michigan, as part of a student movement involved in two current lawsuits that claim the University's consideration of race in their admissions process results in reverse discrimination.
She will talk about her experiences with the appeals and how these Supreme Court appeals could affect the University of Kansas at 3:30 p.m. at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
Danielle Dempsey-Swopes, interim director of the Equal Opportunity Office, said that, although the University had made a lot of gains in increasing diversity in the faculty and student body, there was always more that could be done.
"Shanta will give us a clear understanding of the benefits of diversity and how valuable it is," Dempsey-Swopes said.
Although affirmative action is allowed by The 1978 Bakke v. University of California Board of Regents Supreme Court decision, the University of Kansas does not and never has used race as a determining factor for accepting
students, said Lisa Beck, associate director of admissions. Instead, it has two staff members whose recruitment efforts are designated for students of color.
"We feel that diversity is important at KU, but the primary goal is to look at the strength of academics," Beck said. "We don't want to make a decision based on race just to get our numbers up. We want students to be prepared to be at KU no matter what their ethnicity."
The Equal Opportunity Office currently devotes much of its efforts to creating recruitment plans that attract people of color to faculty positions, she said. A Supreme Court decision in support of making admissions race-neutral could discontinue or decrease this practice.
While Supreme Court approval of the University of Michigan's appeal won't affect KU admissions, it could affect KU hiring practices, said Dempsey-Swones.
Driver's talk is sponsored by the Equal Opportunity Office, the Dean of Students and the Office of the Provost.
Driver is a knowledgeable, eloquent speaker who has dedicated her life to researching the benefits of diversity. Dempsey-Swopes said.
"She's completely absorbed in this case," Dempsey-Swopes said. "Students should come learn how diversity can enrich their lives."

Schools to compete for faculty
By Molly Gise
mgise@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
University of Kansas deans are turning in an important homework assignment tomorrow.
Provost David Shulenburger set a Nov.1 deadline for proposals from each school that outline how they would use a 15 percent increase in faculty to move closer to KU's goal of becoming a top-25 public university.
"I want us to develop areas that will be visible nationally," Shulenburger said.
The proposals will help the administration decide where to allocate money to recruit new tenure-track faculty, Shulen-
Although the proposals are designed around a hypothetical 15 percent increase in faculty, the University expects to add about 100 new faculty members over the next five years, a roughly 10 percent increase in the number of faculty currently on the Lawrence campus, Shulenburger said.
After Shulenburger receives the proposals, he will pass them along to a team of senior administrators for their evaluation.
burger said.
This team will rate the proposals and make recommendations around Thanksgiving about where to allocate $1.5 million from next year's tuition.
Shulenburger said he wanted to make a decision by Dec.1, so that the
chosen schools and departments could begin the recruitment process.
Not all decisions for the longterm hiring plan will be made this semester, Shulenburger said. The administration will likely go through a similar process next year to decide where to bring in more faculty, he said.
Because there is not enough money to give to all the schools, deans are using these proposals to compete for money.
"The end result ought to be an overall enhancement of the University," Shulenburger said. "I think each of the deans is aware that there is not enough money to fund all of the proposals."
The University's plan for allocating money for new faculty
focuses too much on ranking, rather than need, said Mike Appleby, an off-campus student senator.
sense.
"Assess the number of students that programs actually affect and go from there," Appleby said.
He disagreed with making the schools compete against each other with the proposals to decide how to spend tuition money for faculty.
"By pitting departments against each other, ultimately the decision that will be reached will not benefit the students, but rather the University," Appleby said. "Frankly, I'd rather not pay for it."

Free buses unlikely for state Election day
Bv Caleb Nothwehr
cnothwehr@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
While students can ride KU buses for free on Student Senate election days, they will most likely have to flash a bus pass or shell out $1 on Election day next Tuesday.
Student Senate rejected a recommendation last night that would make KU buses free for state Election day.
Had it passed, the resolution would have gone to the KU on Wheels transportation committee. The committee will make its decision on the matter during its Monday meeting without Senate backing.
future." Obley said.
"It's ridiculous to fund free buses for student senate election but not for state elections that will determine our funding
meeting with Adam Obley, supporter of the resolution and holdover senior senator, said Senate made a mistake in rejecting the resolution.
Members of the transportation committee who were present at last night's meeting opposed the resolution because KU on Wheels was already in debt.
"We have the money to do it, but it's going to put us further in the hole," said Eric Braun, transportation committee member.
Making the buses free for one day would cost KU on Wheels between $500 and $600, said Mike Appleby, transportation coordinator.
Appleby said buses were free on Student Senate election days because they always had been in the past.
had been in the past.
"It's odd, but that's the way it has always been," Appleby said.
Critics of the resolution said the number of people who would take advantage of the free buses weren't worth the costs it would incur.
"I don't think one vote is worth $850," said Michael Roessler, graduate senator and St. Louis graduate student.
What it means:
Student Senate will not recommend that the KU bus admission fee be waived next Tuesday for Election day.
After the initial resolution failed, Obley attempted to create a piece of legislation that would pay for free bus rides with $1000 from the Senate unallocated account.
Some senators were opposed to that idea because Senate had already approved $15,454 in allocations to five student groups earlier in the evening. Obley's attempt failed.
The five groups receiving money were the following: Academy of Students of Pharmacy, $1,170; KU-UNICEF, $431; KU Choral, $1,145; KU NAACP, $1,708; and Black Student Union, $7,000.

Printed timetables a must for student enrollment
This fall was the first time in the history of the University of Kansas that course timetables were only available online. As students have been enrolling in their spring classes, they have not been able to attain a hard copy of all the courses offered at the University.
According to an article in the Kansan, the registrar's office decided to publish the timetables only online to avoid spending money on unused printed timetables during a budget crunch.
Richard C. Morrell, University registrar, said it came down to cutting paper or cutting staff in the registrar's office.
The reason for the change is understandable. Keeping jobs should be the University's priority. The online timetables are helpful because they are constantly updated to let students know which sections are closed or full.
Yet because KU doesn't have a complete online enrollment system, students face frustration when visiting an adviser or actually enrolling because they don't have hard copies of the entire timetable at their disposal.
Kecia Seyb, Kansas State University senior, said since she first enrolled at Kansas State in 1999, it had online enrollment.
Whether or not the University comes through with online enrollment by Spring 2003, it should always print a limited number of timetables for students to check out at the libraries. If cost is such an issue,the timetables could be purchased for the price it cost to make them.
In the midst of KU's technological improvement, some basic essentials, like course timetables, should not be eliminated.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Javrock treated with fairness
Mandy German for the editorial board.
Seyb said that Kansas State offered the same type of online timetable as KU, but instead of physically writing down the classes they need, students can simply look up the course and type in the course number on their online enrollment form. It's all done electronically.
Because KU won't offer this type of enrollment service until the spring, the registrar's office should have eased students' burden by printing enough timetables to give to student advisers of each school in order to ensure that they could more effectively advise students.
Students would have also benefited from having hard copies available for their use at Watson and Anshutz libraries.
Jay Rock requested $1,200 to bring in two religious speakers. Jay Rock was not only out of order — they were out of line! It is absolutely unacceptable for a state-funded public university to fund (and therefore condone) religious speech. Senate had every intent of funding all of the secular items that they requested. To cry discrimination when it was Jay Rock's choice to withdraw their request is an unfair attack on people who work hard to serve the students.
Student Senate treated the Jay Rock Campus Ministry with fairness and equality. The decision to cut the funding by the finance committee was in line with the Supreme Court and the Student Senate rules & regulations. In the finance committee, there was one first-hand account of the group's previous actions, not "telling lies about people in our ministry" like Steve Stevenson claimed. However the bulk of the discussion related to the merit of the group to receive funding

Vote campaigns have value
This letter is in response to Joe Pull's column in the Oct. 22 Kansan ("Uninformed voters should stay home, not 'get out the vote'"). He argues that Get out the Vote (GOTV) campaigns are bad because they make stupid voters come out and drown out our smart votes. He assumes that these campaigns encourage masses of uninformed people to vote irrationally.
Is there proof that this is a real problem? The truth is that the most uninformed citizens are not interested in public affairs and they don't vote.
These campaigns are valuable, not annoying. Pull seems to think that there is no value reaching out to people who have not ordinarily participated in the process because they are hopelessly uninformed.
I think if you are going to say something as asinine as "uninformed voters should stay home," you better have a strong argument. A knee-jerk reaction to some remark a Get out the Vote campaign director made is not substantial. After all, an uniformed column is worse than no column at all.

Borja misrepresents animal rights organizations, goals
This is in response to Eric Boria's Oct. 22 column. First, PETA has never, ever endorsed or encouraged spray-painting, vandalism or "guerilla-esque tactics." Showing a picture of a slaughtered cow isn't "guerilla-esque" in any sense, but, given the quality of the writing in the rest of the column, I guess I shouldn't be too surprised over a deficient vocabulary wielded by what's clearly a generally deficient writer.
I really don't know what to say. This column ("Take a big, greasy, tasty bite out of ridiculous animal rights") is nothing but inflammatory there's no fact behind it, nothing but teenage angst and spite. Why do you even bother printing this? Opinion, yes, but can't you find someone who can at least express an intelligently stated opinion?

This is in response to Eric Borja's Oct. 22 column ("Take a big, greasy, tasty bite out of ridiculous animal rights"). Tell him that his column was hilarious! Can I join the PCTWA too, or what?
Also, tell Eric that next time I'm in Lawrence, it's my treat at Dairy Queen to a phat 1/3 pound hamburger, a large blizzard and a pint of whole milk or 2 percent milk. Whichever he wants.
Dinner invitation for Borja
It's a shame to see what passes for journalism these days, even on the college level. I realized this when I read Eric Borja's Oct. 22 column, "Take a big, greasy, tasty bite out of ridiculous animal rights."

Nowhere in this inflammatory and humorless piece is there a single coherent argument for the support of meat consumption or animal cruelty. I would at least expect the old, tired standby "where do you guys get your protein?"

Pot legalization arguments are really about getting high
MIMENTARY
This one goes out to all those who believe that the United States government should legalize marijuana; quit kidding yourselves and others and just tell everyone the real reason you want marijuana legalized. All the other reasons just don't fit.
Steve Vockrodt
opinton@kansan.com
Do not say marijuana should be legalized for its medicinal purposes.
To this day, no hard research has conclusively found that marijuana has any
The U.S. Department of Justice, the American Medical Association, the American Glaucoma Society, the American Academy of Ophthalmology, the International Federation of Multiple Sclerosis Societies and the American Cancer Society have routinely denied all claims from legalization proponents that marijuana serves as any convincing remedy for any disease.
No control group can be formed in such studies, thereby making such findings of its medicinal value purely anecdotal, not factual.
Legalization advocates point to a number of studies that allege that patients smoking marijuana feel some relief from several conditions and ailments.
What those proponents leave out is the fact that such studies are fundamentally flawed because no placebo to marijuana exists.
practical medicinal value to make a case for legalization.
Do not say marijuana should be legalized because of the precedent set from alcohol prohibition in the 20th century.
certainly. The Justice Department shows alcohol lies in a different realm than marijuana because alcohol can be consumed in small quantities and not be harmful or intoxicating while marijuana is used "where the whole point of use is intoxication."
Furthermore, the costs of alcohol abuse on our society clearly illustrates the need to keep other intoxicating drugs from becoming widely and legally available.
If legalization proponents continually assert that alcohol is detrimental to society, then why would they possibly think that the problem would get better with legalizing marijuana?
Such ill-informed logic and self-contradiction remains the cornerstone of
pro-legalization arguments.
Do not say marijuana should be legalized in order to reduce crime and fight addiction levels associated with drugs.
The United States Bureau of Justice statistics revealed in 1993 that "32 percent of inmates committed their offense under the influence of alcohol.
Slightly more than two-fifths of inmates convicted of homicide or assault committed their current offense under the influence of alcohol, or of alcohol and drugs."
Do not say marijuana should be legalized because the government spends too much money fighting illegal drugs.
According to the Justice Department and government data for federal spending, $17 billion was spent enforcing illegal drug laws, while $246 billion was allocated towards alcohol-related problems.
Just tell everyone the real reason: some people just want to get high.
Do not give us a laundry list of illinformed reasons for why marijuana should be legalized.
That alone cannot serve as a reason to legalize marijuana.

This is to the person complaining about the Jcfferson Commons hot tub turning their underwear green. That's probably because I peed in it.
This is to the Eric article on animal rights. I really do hope you realize that its been estimated that if America cut its meat consumption by only 10 percent for one year, it would free up at least 12 million tons of grain for human consumption. That's enough to feed 60 million starving people in another country. So Eric, why don't you evolve a conscience?

Yes, Mr. Borja, all animals enjoy being isolated from their herd, caged and beaten into submission.
I won't take the time to refute the other fallacies that litter this bit of commentary, as anyone who cares can easily research the facts for themselves and draw their own conclusions. I will only encourage anyone interested to do so rather than take this sorry piece at face value.

Business school advising much simpler than J-School
It is advising time, and for the School of Journalism that means coming in at night and have someone sign off on next semester's classes and get a dean's stamp. Since I am in the School of Business and taking the strategic communications curriculum, I have the chance to compare the advising process.
The process in the School of Business is extremely easy. They do not even
require a dean's stamp. The curriculum is very easy to follow. I mean, a third grader can figure out that you must take Accounting I before Accounting II. Also, you can take the core classes in any order. This makes scheduling a breeze.
Advising is available if needed, but not mandatory. They make the process student friendly. Professional schools must be able to trust the students to take the right classes. After all, they are juniors or seniors. If students cannot figure that out by then, how can they succeed in the real world?
Granted, figuring out the J-School's maze of classes and prerequisites is nightmarish, but that is of their own doing.
Russell Warren Lawrence senior
Patriot Act violates liberties
Steve Houpe wrote in his Oct. 24 letter to the editor ("Ignore anti-war rhetoric") that criticizing war protesters doesn't limit their freedoms. That makes sense.
Last October Attorney General Ashcroft rushed the Patriot Act through Congress, claiming imminent threats of terrorist violence. The act violates enough civil liberties to fill 30 ACLU briefing papers (www.aclu.org).
He also said his freedoms weren't limited by war hysteria. That also makes sense. There is no discernible loss of freedom for Americans from the midwest who support the war and don't follow the news very closely.
As just one example, Ascroft can now secretly tap your phone or examine your e-mail, bank account, charge card bills or library borrowings, if he suspects you of aiding or abetting terrorists. Then, if he gets evidence of a completely unrelated crime he can arrest you.
Later, Ashcroft issued a statement that said criticizing the war aids terrorists. That unsubtle threat against war critics eliminates my freedom to criticize the war without fear of arbitrary arrest.
Even more frightening is Ashcroft's treatment of Muslims and Arabs. Ashcroft illegally arrested a thousand of them outshow showing probable cause, then held them incommunicado in secret locations
or solitary confinement or denied them attorneys, refused to say what they were charged with, and refused to grant fair trials. Many are still locked up. None have been charged with terrorist acts. We still don't know who they all were or why they were arrested, despite court orders to release that information.

he needed to finish his graduate work was closed by the school because the enrollment cap for the course had been met. The enrollment for the class is capped at 20 students.
The course is one of three sections titled Topics in Advanced Social Work. Different sections focus on specific therapy models used in the field. Grayson said the closed section taught a solution-based model that best addressed mental health, which is his area of study.
The two remaining sections focus on family therapy models, which Grayson said would not complement his work at the Veterans Administration hospital in Topeka.
The only options for Grayson and students in his position are to either enroll in one of the family model-focused sections or postpone graduation for one year, and try to make it into the class next spring.
Between his job at the VA hos-
pitual and raising his 8-year-old grandson, postponing graduation for another year is a problem that 45-year-old Grayson said would be a significant setback. Grayson is waiting to see if the school will fit him into the class roster, he said.
Officials in the school realize the problem this poses for graduate students, but say the students themselves decided which classes the school offered.
During the graduate students' first year in the program, school officials conducted a survey to pinpoint the areas of social work students were interested in studying.
The information gathered was used to schedule which courses the school offered, said Rick Spano, associate dean of the school.
The survey provided a system that allowed students to choose the graduate program's focus.
"Most schools don't do that," he said.
Spano said he suspected students had changed their minds since the survey, and were now trying to get in a closed course
"There are always some limitations that come into play when students want something," he said.
that was planned for fewer students.
Students had a hard time pinpointing the therapy model they wanted to use in their first year because many hadn't yet learned about each model, said Jennifer Nickels, Lawrence graduate student who is also in the School of Social Welfare program.
"They had the best of intentions, but a lot of people didn't know what they wanted at that point." she said.
Nickels enrolled in the family-based course. Although it was not her first pick, she thought the skills taught in that class would still be valuable.
Spano said school officials would have a meeting regarding the class issue Nov. 12 that would be open to all 60 students in the graduate program. But, he said, the number of student allowed to enroll in the closed class would not be increased.

Thrifty students raid parents' homes for holiday decor
By Matt Stumpff
mstumpff@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Students on a tight budget still found a way to dress up their residences for Halloween.
Students only made up about 20 percent of the Halloween decorations business at Paper Warehouse this year, said Christina Schlosser, assistant manager. She said she had noticed a decline of student sales this year. But the decline may mean students found alternative ways to spruce up their homes.
One alternative was raiding their parents' homes.
Joah Buchanan, Eudora freshman, said she and her three roommates at Lewis Hall had some of the better decorations in the hall, even though they had relied almost entirely on recycled decorations from their parents.
Buchanan said the only decorations she had bought were the two pumpkins in her room. She said she was proud of her door, which had a spider web and a witch door knocker that made sounds.
"There's only one other door in the hall that's decorated for Halloween, so that makes it kind of unique," Buchanan said.
Also adorning the freshman's door are four paper ghosts with the names of all the roommates.
"My roommate got it from a coloring book and then made copies," Buchanan said.
Bob Holmes, Topeka junior, said he also went the inexpensive route when decorating his house for Halloween.
"We got it all from my mom's house." Holmes said.
A dressed-up pest is among the decorations imported from his Topeka home.
"My roommate named him Swampy," Holmes said. "Just because he's a really big rat, and he looks like a swamp rat."
Holmes said the decorations would help set an atmosphere for his Halloween party. But he said he would have decorated anyway, "just to be festive."
Holmes said his house's decorations wouldn't have been complete without pumpkins.
He said he had saved money by going straight to the source, the pumpkin patch, instead of dishing out retail price at a grocery store.
"I thought it'd be kind of fun to go out, there," Holmes said.
The wholesale prices allowed him to purchase five pumpkins, Holmes said. But, only three survived a pumpkin-smashing incident.

Residence halls offer climate-controlled candy collecting

The average age in the residence halls will decrease for two hours tonight.
Trick-or-treaters escaping the elements of the outdoors will go door to door to score candy from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. today. Hall residents sign up at their front desks to receive a paper pumpkin to post on their doors. The pumpkins indicate to youngsters which residents are doling out candy.
Jason Barker, Wichita sophomore, said there would not be a pumpkin on his door.
"I'm going out partying," Barker said. If he didn't have plans, he said he would stay to hand out candy to trick-or-treaters.
Sara Logan, Houston freshman, said her residence-hall wing was excited for the children to arrive.
"It will be fun with all the little kids." Logan said. "It'll be cute."
Parties can wait until after 8 p.m., said Ryan O'Shea, St. Louis freshman. O'Shea said he planned to go out to celebrate Halloween after fulfilling his duty to the children.
Residents may hear more knocking on their doors than in the past because of a change in the day of the program.
Halloween, said Julie Smith, Cook,Neb.,graduate student and coordinator for the trick-or-treating program. She said that moving the program to Halloween day should make the program more effective.
"We thought maybe more people would show up since parents would only have to put them in their costumes once," Smith said.
The weather may cause more trick-or treaters to seek the climate-controlled residence halls
as well, Smith said. The forecast indicates colder candy-seeking conditions than in the past. The KU department of atmospheric sciences forecasts a high of 42 degrees for today and a low of 33 degrees for tonight. According to the National Weather Service's climatology database, last year's high on Halloween was about 20 degrees warmer.
John Edison, Lawrence resident and father of two children, ages 7 and 4, said weather would
definitely play a role in whether or not he took advantage of the residence hall program.
Edison said that if the weather permitted, he would take his children through his neighborhood to collect candy.
"If it's raining or really cold, we'll go up there," Edison said. "You don't want to have to worry about having them rushing back and forth to your car."

Cosmetic lenses could cause serious, permanent damage
By Erin Beatty
ebeatty@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Contributed art
Students who plan to wear cosmetic contact tenses without a prescription for Halloween have more to fear tonight than the holiday.
The Food and Drug Administration recently released a report warning consumers of the serious health risks presented by cosmetic contact lenses worn without a prescription and without a proper fitting by an eye care professional.
Those risks include eye infection, swelling, allergic reaction, corneal abrasion, reduction in acuteness of vision, and permanent eye injury - potentially leading to blindness.
In recent years, consumers seeking a "new look" or a costume accessory began using the decorative contact lenses, either with or without a prescription.
Daniel Smith, optometrist at Lawrence Optometric Clinic, 950 Iowa St., said decorative lenses had become increasingly popular during the past 10 years because prices have decreased and more companies produce them.
With a prescription and a proper fitting, the colored lenses
Cat-eye-shaped lenses are a popular decorative contact for Halloween.
do not pose a threat to the wearer, which is why consumers can buy them at typical eyewear clinics.
Standard disposable contact lenses typically cost about $50 for a six-pack, on top of the fitting fee and the exam fee. Smith said. He said typical fitting fees ranged from $75 to $110 and exam fees were typically about $70.
Consumers who do not have a prescription and do not want to pay for the exam and fitting can find colored lenses at flea markets, convenience stores and beach shops, according to the FDA report.
They can also find them on manufacturers' Web sites such as "Wild Eyes" at www.wildcontacts.com.
Smith said the sale of colored contacts without a prescription was illegal in Kansas because of the possible hazards.
Types of common eye damage
from the lenses that Smith mentioned were corneal ulcers, which he said were hard to treat and could leave scars, and corneal neovascularization, which was when blood vessels form in areas of the eye where they shouldn't.
Brian Vilcek, Lawrence resident, said he thought about wearing a friend's purple-colored lenses as part of his Halloween costume, but changed his mind after learning about the risks.
"I'm for sure not going to wear them if they're going to make me blind." Vilcek said.
Last year, 1,500 people ended up in emergency rooms nationwide because of contact lens-related injuries, according to a report by ABC News.
Kevin Lenahan, optometrist at R. Kevin Lenahan O.D. & Associates, 935 Iowa St., said he had treated about two or three dozen people who had injuries from wearing contacts that didn't fit properly.
He said lenses that did not properly fit a person's eyes could be visually threatening and have severe consequences.
"They could even lose an eye over it," Lenahan said.

Rapper Jam Master Jay of Run DMC shot dead
The Associated Press
NEW YORK—Run Master Jay part of the pioneering rap trio Run DMC, was shot and killed at a New York City recording studio yesterday, the group's publicist suid.
Publicist Tracy Miller confirmed the death of the 37-year-old rapper, whose real name was Jason Mizell.
He was shot once in the head and was dead at the scene, said Detective Robert Price, a police spokesman. He said the shooter remained at large and police had no information about a motive.
A second man, identified by police as 25-year-old Urieco Rincon, was shot in the leg and was taken to Mary Immaculate Hospital. The hospital did not immediately return a call seeking comment.
Run DMC is widely credited with helping bring hip-hop into music's mainstream, including the group's smash collaboration with Aerosmith on the 1980s standard "Walk This Way."
"We always knew rap was for everyone," Mizell said in a 2001 interview with MTV. "Anyone could rap over all kinds of music."
"I wasn't the soulful R&B of the '70s and '80s," he said of the group's early work. "So we didn't want to be like the soft R&B. We wanted to go hardcore, so we put the rock-and-roll on our rap."
Mizell served as the group's disc jockey, providing background for singers Joseph Simmons, better known as DJ Run, and Darryl McDaniels, better known as DMC.
Mizell was married and had three children, Miller said.
"He was a great producer, a hard worker," Miller said told The Associated Press. "He's a family man."
Dozens of fans gathered on the outskirts of the crime scene in Queens, where the members of Run DMC grew up.
"They're the best. They're the pioneers in hip-hop," said fan Arlene Clark, 59.
Another fan who lives nearby, Leslie Bell, 33, said the members
of Run DMC often let local musicians record for free at their studio.
"That was their decision, to stay here and give back to the community," Bell said. "He is one great man. The good always die young. He's the good guy."
Miller said Mizell and McDaniels had planned to perform in Washington, D.C., on Thursday at a Washington Wizards basketball game. Mizell had performed on Tuesday in Alabama, Miller said.
The trio released a greatest-hits album earlier this year. In 2001, the rappers produced "Crown Royal," breaking an eight-year silence.
In 1986, the trio said they were outraged by the rise of fatal gang violence in the Los Angeles area. They called for a day of peace between warring street gangs.
"This is the first town where you feel the gangs from the minute you step into town to the time you leave," Mizell said at the time.

Garner blasts Praeger's donations
The Associated Press
TOPEKA—Republican Sandy Praeger received more than $25,000 for her campaign for insurance commissioner from a network of Texas and Oklahoma insurance companies and their executives.
Democratic rival Jim Garner pointed to those contributions Wednesday as evidence that Praeger would be too cozy with the industry if she were elected. He noted that one of the companies was the subject of a 1999 regulatory order issued by current Commissioner Kathleen Sebelius.
Garner has made Praeger's acceptance of insurance industry contributions the major issue of their campaign. Garner has promised not to accept money from companies or individuals licensed or regulated by the Insurance Department, a pledge Sebelius made in winning two terms as commissioner.
Praeger said Garner is engaging in negative campaigning rather than talking about sub-
stative issues. The company Garner mentioned by name, MEGA Life and Health Insurance Co., headquartered in North Richland Hills, Texas, objected to Garner's characterization of its business.
With only six days before Tuesday's general election, Garner acknowledged that his campaign might not have enough time or money to raise the issue in television advertisements. He held a Statehouse news conference to criticize Praeger.
"I believe this is information that the people of Kansas need to know about," said Garner, minority leader in the Kansas House.
Praeger has repeatedly said that contributions from insurance companies won't influence her decisions as commissioner and pointed to her record as a chairwoman of the Senate's Financial Institutions and Insurance Committee, supporting, for example, health insurance coverage mandates opposed by the industry.
"I am extremely disappointed
that, with only days remaining in this election, the House minority leader continues to run a campaign bereft of ideas and instead has been focusing on negative campaigning," she said.
A campaign finance report filed by Praeger's campaign with the secretary of state's office showed that her campaign received nearly $184,000 in contributions from July 26 through Oct. 24. The Garner campaign calculated that $60,000 — roughly a third — came from the insurance industry.
On July 26, Prueger received $25,600 MEGA; UICI, MEGA's parent company; four other affiliated companies; 12 UICI officials; one UICI official's spouse; and an attorney for MEGA.
"UCII and its employees regularly contribute to the campaigns of candidates, Republicans and Democrats alike, whose views with respect to the accessibility and affordable health care coverage are consistent with ours," said Glenn Reed, MEGA's executive vice president and general counsel.
But Garner said consumers should worry about the commissioner's office being independent of the industry.
"Who is shaking down whom in this relationship?" he said.
But Praeger spokesman John Shoemaker responded: "Campaign contributions never have equaled a quid pro quo."
He called the company "consumer challenged."
The 1999 order cited by Garner dealt with MEGA's marketing of group health insurance policies. Sebelius said the company had violated Kansas law by marketing a group plan in which the company could choose to exclude individuals or conditions from coverage.
But Reed said the group policy allowing such underwriting had previously been approved by the Insurance Department. He said the order was issued to resolve a misunderstanding.
"The employees of UICI, MEGA and all other MEGA affiliates value highly our relationships with our policyholders,"
West Nile virus detected in central Kansas dog
By Patrice Holderbach
By Patrice Hoderbach Kansas State Collegian, the student newspaper of Kansas State University, via U-Wire
MANHATTAN — An Abilene canine has been verified as the first dog to be exposed to West Nile virus in Kansas, said George Kennedy, pathologist at K-State's Veterinary Medicine diagnostic laboratory. However, this test does not prove the dog became sick as a result of West Nile, Kennedy said. Signs of the virus showed up in serum samples after
being tested at the lab two weeks ago, he said.
The greyhound originally displayed neurological signs of convulsions, poor coordination and lethargy - symptoms associated with West Nile, Kennedy said. Though researchers could not confirm whether the dog became infected by West Nile, the virus "does not appear to cause extensive illness in dogs or cats," according to the Centers for Disease Control Web site, www.cdc.gov.
Frank Jordan, veterinarian at Abilene Animal Hospital, provided care for the dog.
"I'm not convinced the symptoms we saw are related to the West Nile virus," Jordan said. "I just don't think the dog had West Nile, but it's obvious after sending the blood sample that the dog had been exposed to it."
Researchers could not definitively determine the dog's illness, Jordan said, but they knew the dog had a neurological disorder. He said the dog recovered by the time K-State received the test results.
"The dog is absolutely fine now," Jordan said.
However, he said, little research existed on West Nile for species other than birds, horses and humans.
"There's so much of this that has to be learned in other species," Jordan said. "We were surprised when this came back positive, and it certainly raised questions in our minds."
Kennedy urged the public to remember the rarity of cases in dogs and humans. He said that when immune systems are compromised or weakened, the individual becomes more susceptible.
Carr brothers' attorneys rest their cases
Jay Greeno, attorney for Reginald Carr, told the judge his client was going to exercise his right to remain silent.
WICHITA — Defense lawyers for Reginald and Jonathan Carr rested their cases Wednesday without either brother taking the stand.
The Associated Press
No witnesses testified at the trial for Jonathan Carr, and the only evidence presented in his case was documentation of a train ticket for the ride he planned to take out of Newton the day four people were shot and killed. The Carrs are accused of killing those four people and another woman.
A total of 97 witnesses have testified, including five for Reginald Carr. More than 800 pieces of evidence have been admitted.
jurors will hear about an hour of jury instructions Thursday. Then the prosecutor and each brother's defense team each has two hours for closing arguments.
Testimony Wednesday came from the defense's DNA expert, Jami Harman, of Genetic Technologies, Inc. of St. Louis. She testified about seeming discrepancies in the descriptions police investigators recorded of some of the evidence used to collect DNA samples. She also questioned the accuracy of some of the DNA profiles that contained mixed DNA samples from two or more people.
But on cross examination by Deputy District Attorney Kim
Parker, Harman acknowledged she never actually did DNA tests on some of the most incriminating evidence against Reginald Carr — the red undershorts and the shirts spotted with one victim's blood that were found in his apartment when he was arrested.
In fact, she testified, she never even opened the evidence bags containing those items.
Harman acknowledged her company, which works on civil cases such as paternity testing, is not certified as a law enforcement crime lab and does not have access to some of those databases.
The woman also told jarors she had never even seen her company's web site. She also said the company and its seven employees are based in the same rural acreage where her home is located.
Prosecutors say that on Dec. 14-15, 2000, the brothers abducted five friends from a Wichita home, forced them to engage in sexual acts and to withdraw money from ATMs before the five were shot. The two women were raped. Aaron Sander, 29; Brad Heyka, 27; Jason Befort, 26; and Heather Muller, 25, died. Befort's girlfriend, then a 25-year-old teacher, survived and ran for a mile to find help.
The Carrs also are being tried in the Dec. 11, 2000, attempted robbery and shooting of Ann Walenta, 55, who later died, and a robbery four days earlier in which Andrew Schreiber was abducted and forced to withdraw cash from ATMs.

Jury sentences officer who admitted to killing wife
The Associated Press
ANNAPOLIS JUNCTION, Md. — A military jury Wednesday gave a 25-year prison sentence to a lieutenant colonel who admitted killing his wife during an argument about pornography, an Army spokesman said.
Bartlett, 46, pleaded guilty to unpremeditated murder at his Sept. 30 court-martial, saying he beat and strangled his wife as they fought about his use of the Internet to view pornography. He said he struck her two dozen times on the head with an iron pestle and strangled her with a computer cord in the couple's home at the Army War College in Carlisle.
Lt. Col. David Bartlett also will be dismissed from the service and forfeit pay and benefits. He will serve his sentence at Fort Leavenworth.
A jury of eight colonels and lieutenant colonels deliberated for three hours Wednesday after two days of testimony at Fort Meade in his sentencing court-martial.
A tearful Bartlett apologized to his sobbing in-laws for killing Suzanne Bartlett.
"I can't imagine the pain that I've caused you," he said. "You trusted me with taking care of your daughter and I failed you."
Bartlett reported his wife missing the day after the killing, saying she didn't return from a walk. Her body was found in a creek.
He had faced premeditated murder, assault and obstruction of justice charges and a sentence of life in prison without the possibility of parole. Prosecutors reduced the murder charge and dropped the other charges under a plea agreement.
The Bartletts had lived on the War College base since 1999 with their three young children.
Feds block local questioning of sniper suspects
The Associated Press
ROCKVILLE, Md. — Questioning of the two sniper suspects was halted when federal agents took custody of the pair, possibly preventing investigators from obtaining information about the shooting spree, a local law enforcement source complained Wednesday.
Maryland U.S. Attorney Thomas DiBiagio disputed that, saying neither suspect was "yielding any useful information." He also said federal law required they be taken before a federal magistrate once they asked for a lawyer.
The dispute was one of the very earliest clashes among prosecutors over which jurisdiction would take the lead role in pursuing a case against John Allen Muhammad, 41, and John Lee Malvo, 17.
After a three-week manhunt covering the entire Washington region, Muhammad and Malvo were arrested Oct. 24 at a Maryland rest stop on a federal charge and were questioned that morning by members of the multi-agency sniper task force.
Later that day, after investigators received calls from DiBiagio, the two were taken into federal custody, the local law enforcement official said.
Task force investigators complained they were trying to develop a rapport and may have been able to obtain valuable information.
However, a senior Justice Department official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the pair were providing little information to interrogators and invoked their right not to speak without a lawyer.
The Justice Department official said Malvo would not even admit he was in the car with Muhammad when the two were arrested, saying only things like "I'm hungry" or "Leave me alone so I can get something to eat."
Task force officials complained that the federal government's decision ended potentially valuable interrogations, the local law enforcement source said.
"He was talking," the source said of Muhammad. "There was certainly a great deal of information that remained to be gleaned from him."
DiBiagio, however, told task
force investigators that he had orders from the White House and the Justice Department to take the suspects, and could not be talked out of doing so, the source said.
Muhammad and Malvo did not give any indication they were prepared to confess, the source said.
DiBiagio and the FBI issued statements Wednesday, denying the White House was involved in the decision to take Muhammad and Malvo into custody.
Gary Bald, the FBI's special agent in charge, said he was in touch with DiBiagio throughout Oct. 24 and "there was never any reference to taking any action as a result of Justice Department or White House pressure or requests."
DiBiagio said he advised local investigators that federal law required Malvo, a juvenile, be brought before a federal magistrate "forthwith" and Muhammad "without unnecessary delay."
Montgomery Deputy State's Attorney John McCarthy called the U.S. Attorney's office at 3 p.m. that day to say Muhammad had
asked for a lawyer. At that point "questioning had to cease" and the suspect had to be taken before the magistrate, DiBiagio said.
But the local law enforcement source said the task force wanted the government to dismiss the federal gun charge, a misdemeanor, and allow Montgomery County to file six murder charges against the suspects. That request was denied, the source said.
Responding to DiBiagio's statement Wednesday, Montgomery County State's Attorney Douglas F. Gansler said McCarthy's call was to say Muhammad and Malvo were on their way to Baltimore for a federal hearing, not that Muhammad invoked his right to a lawyer.
Whatever the case, Robert Cleary, a former federal prosecutor in New Jersey who headed the Unabomber case, said: "It is never good when prosecuting authorities are at odds with each other. It can only serve to hurt the case."
It can also damage the public perception that justice is being served, said Nicholas Gess, a former Clinton administration Justice Department official.
"It's important from the public's perspective that they have confidence there is unity among the people doing this," he said. "I hope if there is squabbling, it's short-lived."
The interrogation account, first reported in Wednesday's New York Times, illustrates the rising tensions between federal and local authorities over who will prosecute Muhammad and Malvo first.
Muhammad was charged in federal court Tuesday under weapons and extortion laws that could bring the death penalty. Prosecutors in Maryland and Virginia have also filed state murder charges against both. Authorities in Alabama have charged them with a slaying last month, and the two are suspects in a Washington state killing earlier this year.
Attorney General John Ashcroft said negotiations continue on which jurisdiction will try the first case.
During the investigation, authorities were able to cobble together a task force from dozens of federal agencies and local police forces. The relative unity of the task force crumbled soon after the arrests.
Boston priest reinstated after being cleared of abuse accusations
The Associated Press
BOSTON The top canon lawyer in the Boston Archdiocese was reinstated Wednesday after he was cleared of sex abuse accusations.
Monsignor Michael Smith Foster was twice put on leave after charges of sex abuse, despite serious questions about his accuser's credibility. On Wednesday, Foster was restored to his
post, according to an archdiocese statement.
"Cardinal (Bernard) Law and his associates will work with Monsignor Foster in an effort to restore his good name," the statement said.
Foster, who called the last two months "an ordeal," said he looked forward to celebrating Mass publicly and resuming his duties.
"These months have been difficult for me," Foster said in a statement. But he added that he did not want his ordeal to overshadow the suffering of abuse victims.
"Please remember that they are the ultimate victims of this crisis," Foster said.
In August, Paul Edwards sued Foster, alleging the priest molested him while he was an altar boy at a Newton parish.
Those accusations crumbled after The Boston Globe interviewed
several of Edwards' acquaintances, who said he had a history of making up stories and pointed to factual errors in his accounts.
The lawsuit was dismissed in early September.
Foster, who proclaimed his innocence from the start, was reinstated. On Sept.14, the archdiocese announced Foster was again placed on leave, citing unspecified "new information" from Edwards.
After an internal review, Law determined the complaint was unfounded, the archdiocese said.
Edwards claimed Foster molested him repeatedly in a rectory bedroom between 1980 and 1985. The Rev. John Connolly and three teenagers who worked at the rectory said strict rules would have prevented Edwards from spending significant time in Foster's bedroom without being seen.

North Korea, Japan end talks without accord on weapons
The Associated Press
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia Dashing hopes for a thaw in a bitter rivalry, North Korea yesterday rebuffed Japan's demands to halt its nuclear weapons program and repatriate five kidnapped Japanese citizens and their families.
After completing two days of acrimonious talks over whether and how to establish diplomatic ties, delegations from the two countries acknowledged they agreed on virtually nothing. Instead, North Korea accused Japan of allowing distrust to sour the negotiations.
Japan countered that the North Koreans showed no willingness to compromise.
Even though no new negotiations have been scheduled with the North, Chief Cabinet Secretary Yasuo Fukuda said Thursday that Japan would still be talking with Pyongyang in the interim to ensure their repatriation. He also said Japan would keep pressuring its communist neighbor to scrap
its nuclear weapons program.
"There were no great successes," Fukuda said. "But as was indicated in the outcome, we agreed to put forward efforts toward solving the dividing issues."
During the talks, the first in two years, Tokyo stressed that its demands on nuclear and repatriation issues had to be resolved before pursuing the normalization of relations or economic aid for impoverished North Korea.
But North Korea refused to comply, insisting normalization and economic aid come first.
"Unfortunately, we saw no change in the North's position," said Katsunari Suzuki, chief of the Japanese delegation. "We are very disappointed by this."
The talks followed an unprecedented summit between North Korean leader Kim Jong Il and Japan's Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi in Pyongyang last month.
"It's just the beginning, and it takes both of our efforts,"
Koizumi told reporters in Tokyo after the talks. "Both of us at least are eager to continue talks, and we just have to be patient."
But it was not clear if the talks would indeed continue. The North proposed a new round next month, but Suzuki said Japan would answer at a later date.
The two countries agreed only on the framework for a planned working-level panel on security issues — the creation of which was agreed to at the Sept. 17 summit. Suzuki said it would be put in place next month, but offered no further details.
Japan demanded the North scrap efforts to develop nuclear weapons in keeping with the summit agreement for both sides to seek peace on the Korean Peninsula.
Suzuki said the North expressed an "understanding of Japan's position" but repeated its argument that the problem can only be resolved through talks with the United States.
Japan also called on the North to abandon its deployment of
long-range missiles capable of hitting targets anywhere in Japan and as far away as Alaska and Guam. The missiles are believed to be capable of carrying warheads at least as powerful as the Hiroshima or Nagasaki bombs.
North Korea has long justified efforts to bolster its military by claiming the presence of tens of thousands of U.S. troops in Japan and South Korea poses a threat to its security.
"We have no need to offer excuses," North Korean delegate Pak Ryong Yeon said.
the nuclear issue has increased global tension, but the fate of the Japanese abducted by North Korea remains the immediate focus for Japan.
Kim's surprise confession last month that North Korean spies abducted at least 13 Japanese in the 1970s and '80s, though initially welcomed as a sign of openness, has since mushroomed into an emotional confrontation between the two governments.
Body of slain U.S. diplomat sent home
The Associated Press
AMMAN, Jordan — The body of U.S. diplomat Laurence Foley was flown to the United States yesterday after bagpipes played mournfully at a grim airport ceremony, but Jordanian investigators reported no progress in tracking down his killer.
Diplomats fought back tears as U.S. Marines and embassy colleagues carried Foley's flag-draped coffin from a black hearse onto a slate-gray U.S. Air Force C-141 military transport at Amman's airport.
Foley, 60, was shot by a lone gunman at close range Monday in front of his home in Amman. The gunman escaped. Police rounded up dozens of Islamic militants for questioning in the shooting, the first such deadly attack on an American diplomat in decades.
Minister of Planning and Development Bassem Awadallah praised Foley, who worked with the U.S. aid agency office in Amman, for his devotion to improving the lives of poor Jordanians.
Jordanian officials have said the slaying was aimed at destabilizing Jordan and harming its close relations with the United States.
"We must see to it that the intended consequences of this despicable act are never materialized." Awadallah said.
U. S. Ambassador Edward Gnehm also reaffirmed the "abiding bonds" between Jordan and the United States. "Together we will confront those who would seek to damage those ties," he said.
During the ceremony, a Jordanian army honor guard in olive-green dress uniforms and
red headscarves stood stiffly at attention as the military band played.
Foley's widow, Virginia, wearing a Palestinian cross-stitch sweater that was a gift from her husband, hugged embassy staff and friends before boarding the plane with the coffin and the couple's golden retriever. Bogart.
The plane then departed for Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland, with a refueling stop in Germany.
Jordanian government and military officials, along with Prince Faisal, brother of King Abdullah II, attended the ceremony to offer their condolences. The king and his wife, Queen Rania, visited the U.S. Embassy on Tuesday to sign a condolence book and meet briefly with Foley's widow.
U. S. and Jordanian investiga
tors have been working together, but no leads were reported, despite the interrogation of the Islamic extremists.
"We are questioning all individuals and groups" known to police, Jordanian Information Minister Mohammad Affash Adwan told The Associated Press.
A Jordanian official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said most of those detained were Jordanians of Palestinian origin who belonged to militant Islamic cells, known for virulently anti-American views.
Jordan's largest Muslim opposition group, the Muslim Brotherhood Movement, yesterday condemned Foley's slaying as a "sinful aggression" that violated Islamic law and "threatens Jordan's security and stability," but charged that U.S. policy in the region was to blame.

Hitter recalls Jayhawk history

Lindsey Morris seemed to experience déjà vu last night.

The last time Morris led the Jayahawks in kills was at Iowa State a year ago with, surprise, 13.
The Jayhawks, who are 16-5 overall and 7-5 in the Big 12 Conference, earned their second consecutive victory and sixth straight against the Cyclones, 10-14 overall, and 1-11 in the Big 12. This is the third straight year that Kansas has swept the Cyclones in Ames.

Coach Ray Bechard said both yesterday's win and Saturday's win at Oklahoma were critical.
"Even though these two teams are at the bottom of the conference, we needed these road wins in the conference," he said.

Senior linebacker Leo Etienne said players were not likely to notice colors in the crowd.
Kansas' Memorial Stadium has 250 more seats than KSU Stadium, but purple-clad Kansas State fans will likely fill nearly half the stands on Saturday..

No matter which team the crowd is cheering for, Mangino and the Jawhaws realize they cannot count on a close game solely because Kansas State sometimes struggles on the road.

Apparently, slims missed my column that congratulated K-State coach Bill Snyder for using junior college players to build his program to national prominence and that Kansas coach Mark Mangino should follow that lead. Slims also must have passed over my column taking Mangino to task for not suspending players who are facing criminal charges. Of course, that one ran on the opinion page, which may feature a vocabulary a few grade levels too high for Wildcat fans.

coaches listed a top-six finish among their season goals.
"We'd like to finish in the top half of the conference," Baylor coach Kim Mulkey-Roberston said. "If we do that we know we can make the tournament."
Just discussing the issue of six or seven entries into the tournament shows how far the Big 12 has come in its seven years. Kansas coach Marion Washington said.
"Many of us knew that we could rival the SEC," she said, "and now that we have proved that, we are very optimistic about the future of this conference as a whole."
Last season, the SEC edged the Big 12 with eight invitations to the NCAA tournament, but the Big 12 led the nation in participants advancing to the NCAA regionals with five. The feat broke the old Big 12 record of four set the previous season.

women's BASKETBALL
H
With most Big 12 Conference teams bringing their top seniors to Media Day in Dallas, Kansas' Blair Waltz and Aquanita Burras two sophomores-marched into the press conference yesterday, representing the youth theme of this year's squad.
Waltz, the only returning starter from last year's 5-25 squad
that lost all 16 conference games, leads the team in scoring with 6.2 points. The rest of the Jayhawks will try to make up the nearly 80 percent of scoring lost from a season ago.
That task will not be easy for coach Marian Washington, as she has no seniors and eight newcomers - six of them freshmen with no collegiate playing experience.
But this fact does not worry Washington, and she expects this
group of teenagers to turn around her wounded program.
"We are very excited about our new players because they have the ability to step right up and challenge for a position on this team," Washington said. "We need to remind our players that our program is turning around and getting back to the way it should be, and to be very optimistic about the future."
One player expected to make an immediate impact is Burras, a transfer from Central Arizona Community College. The 5-foot-9 guard averaged 14 points and 6 rebounds last season en route to a
second team all-conference award.
Freshman Erica Hallman, another name among the long list of novices, earned Ms. Kentucky Basketball last year while averaging 21 points per game.
Washington said she mostly enjoyed the newfound athleticism on her roster, something that was severely missing from last year's team.
"The new players have a style more along the lines of my philosophy and it is going to be very exciting to watch them progress throughout the season," she said.

Transfers

Jones said, "and it kind of maybe lowered my confidence level a little bit, but I'm definitely glad that I did because it's been a good couple of seasons."
After last year, the team's first winning season and first trip to the NCAA Tournament, Jones is wrapping up her Kansas career as part of another winning team.
"It's awesome," she said. "It gives the opportunity for people to come watch me who are closer to home. We're doing well this year and had a good year last year so I couldn't ask for more to finish up."
Jones and Kaplinger have more in common than hometowns and transfer status. The two played together on the Alliance United club team for a year, winning the state championship in 1998.
Kaplinger, a junior who attended Shawnee Mission South High School, played her freshman season at Louisville after receiving little interest from Kansas.
who was recruiting my class at the beginning of my junior year wasn't the same coach, and he didn't really recruit players from Kansas."
After spending 1999 on a Louisville team that won just one game, Kaplinger returned to Kansas to be closer to her family and friends, and also to continue playing soccer.
She contacted then-recently hired coach Mark Francis at the end of her freshman year, and though he hadn't seen her play, Francis gave Kaplinger a spot on the team, providing she earned it.
"I wanted to go to Kansas," Kaplinger said, "but the coach
Kaplinger made the team and scored two goals in 18 games her first season, but redshirted last year after breaking a leg in an exhibition game. This season, she has eight points in 12 games.
"I was having a good season but that just happens sometimes," Kaplinger said about her injury. "This season's been good. It's the best I've played at Kansas."
The same season Kaplering transferred to Kansas, Scavuzzo, who graduated from Blue Valley Northwest High School, joined the Jayhawks after a friction-filled freshman year at Wyoming.
Unlike Kaplinger, Scavuzzo
was recruited by the Jayhawks but chose to join the Cowboys because she liked Laramie's scenery and the school.
"It was just really interesting to me," Scavuzzo said. "It was a small town, very different from what I'd grown up in."
"Both of our assistant coaches and seven or eight girls transferred that year," Scavuzzo said, "so there was a lot of conflict there, but there were a whole bunch of small factors that brought me back. I'm a big family person so that had a big influence."
After redshirting a year, Scavuzzo played 24 games for Wyoming in 2000 but was one of several players who had a conflict with the coach.
The youngest of five siblings, Scavuzzo is the sixth member of her immediate family to be a Jayhawk. Her parents, John and Pam, and three of her four brothers also attended the University.
Like Jones, Scavuzzo wasn't certain she wanted to continue her athletic career after transferring. The Kansas coaches suggested she see if she still enjoyed playing, a suggestion which paid off for the Jayhawks.
"It hadn't been a good situation in Wyoming," she said.
"and I wasn't sure I still wanted to play, but it's turned out to be the best experience ever and I'm really glad I came back."
Scavuzzo took advantage of a hometown connection soon after arriving at Kansas. Christi Posey, Scavuzzo's high school coach, was hired as an assistant coach a few months later.
"She's the one who basically got me to where I'm at right now," Seavuzzo said. "It's awesome to work with her again."
Posey echoed that sentiment.
Posey encohed that sentiment. "It was an extra plus because I got to be reunited with one of my all-time favorite kids," she said. "Molly's always been a terrific individual. She's obviously got a lot of athletic ability, but it's been fun because she's a happy kid and enjoys life."
Scavuzzo said she was sad to see her time as a Jayhawk almost at an end, but she was happy with her decision to return to her home state.
"I think I put a little bit of pressure on myself," Scavuzzo said, "because I've always been a Jayhawk fan, so I'm glad that I'm finally a Jayhawk. I’m proud to wear the crimson and blue."

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 31).
Friends want to help, but they may not have the best advice this year. Don't follow the crowd if it's making a big mistake. This is most likely to happen where money is involved. You're favored to have the best common sense among those your group. Be a leader, not a follower.
Aries (March 21-April 19). Today is a 5.
If anything can go wrong now, the odds are good that it will. What does that tell you about checking facts and reviewing letters for typos?
Gemini (May 21-June 21). Today is a7.
Taurus (April 20-May 20). Today is an 8.
The decisions begin to become obvious, though not all are easy. Belt-tightening may be required. Set aside distracting fantasies but not your goals or your faith.
It's usually a good idea to think about what you're going to say before you say it. This can get you into inner circles, and it's a good idea to practice this at work for the
next few weeks.
Cancer (June 22-July 22). Today is an 8.
Advise a loved one not to spend a great deal of money now. It won't be long before you figure out a much better way to proceed.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). Today is a 5. Spend whatever you can scrape together on domestic costs, not on a favorite cause. This time it will work best to put your own needs first.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Today is an 8.
New information makes old technology obsolete, so stop doing the job the hard way. With a little more investigation, you might save a lot of time and trouble.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct 22), Today is a 5.
Gather more information before you make your final decision. It won't hurt to wait. If you ask for what you think you want now, the answer is most likely to be "no."
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21). Today is an 8.
Plans you've been formulating are starting to take shape. You'll
soon visualize them more clearly.
What you see is what you get.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Todav is a 5.
You've waited just about long enough. If you don't say something now, the moment will pass. If that might actually be better, wait a day or two longer.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Today is an 8.
travel is messed up again. Deliveries are apt to be delayed, too. Work on your lists and strategies, but don't bother with reaching conclusions yet.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb.18). Today is a 6.
Ongoing changes cause disruptions, but you can power through them. A dream takes a hit, but don't give it up. Show the skeptic your faith is stronger.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). Today is an 8.
The worst of the confusion should be over by now, even though all is not quite settled down. Walk away from something you don't need any longer, and toward something that will work better.

Home field provides little solace
Mangino says home field may offer small advantage in Sunflower Showdown
16 28
By John Domoney
jdomoney@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
Kansas showed little defense against Kansas State in last year's 40-6 defeat. The Jayhawks look to redeem themselves at Saturday's 1 p.m. match up at Memorial Stadium.
In a conference that features homefield advantages such as Nebraska's Memorial Stadium and Texas A&M's Kyle Field, Kansas' Memorial Stadium is not considered one of the toughest places to play in the Big 12 Conference.
Through four home games this year, Kansas has averaged 36,500 fans, ranking the Jayhawks next to last in average attendance in the Big 12. The mark also represents nearly a five-percent decrease from last year.
But Kansas coach Mark Mangino said Tuesday in his weekly press conference that he was glad Kansas State was coming to Lawrence on Saturday.
"You all know that Kansas State is a tremendous program, and they have a tremendous environment on game day in Manhattan," Mangino said. "But history shows they always play much, much better in Manhattan then they usually play on the road," Mangino said.
Kansas State regularly fills 50,000-seat KSU Stadium with spirited fans, and opponents have rarely come to Manhattan and left with a win since Bill Snyder took control of the football program in
1989. The Wildcats have suffered just six home losses in the past 10 seasons.
Games on the road, not counting neutral sites, have been a different story.
Kansas State has lost a total of 16 road games in the past 10 seasons.
Each year Snyder tries to schedule as many home games as possible to collect
the benefits from a home-field advantage. The Kansas State football program

Three Kansas athletes have had the same Point A and will have the same Point B, but it's been anything but a straight line in between.
Brooke Jones, Carmel Kaplinger and Molly Scavuzzo all graduated from high school in the metropolitan Kansas City area and are now Jayhawks, but each spent at least her freshman year at another school before returning to the Sunflower State.
Returning to the University Jones transferred to Kansas because she wasn't enjoying her time at Nebraska after graduating from
Olathe East High School in 1999.
She joined the Cornhuskers because of their success, but, after two seasons, Jones realized the team wasn't right for her.
"They also had a different style of play that I didn't fit in," Jones said, "and a lot of it was being closer to my family."
Family ties were enough to bring Jones to Kansas, but they weren't enough to make her continue playing soccer. In fact, she wasn't sure she wanted to play after her experience with the Cornhuskers.
"I think I was just really frustrated at Nebraska,"

Teams predict top six will make NCAAs
By Doyle Murphy

DALLAS — As odd as it may seem, some women's basketball teams in the Big 12 Conference would be happy with a sixth-place finish in the conference — only because of the idea that the strength of the league nearly guarantees the top six finishers a berth in the NCAA tournament.
"I'm not going to sit up here and say we're going to challenge for a Big 12 title," said Iowa State coach BILL Fennelly at yesterday's women's basketball Big 12 Media Day in Dallas. "I don't know that's realistic with the players that K-State, Texas Tech and Oklahoma have, but I do think that we can win some games against people."
If his team can make good on its sixth-place ranking in the coaches' preseason poll, Fennelly said he expected to go to the NCAA tournament for the seventh straight season.
There is a sense among coaches that, after positions one through four, the conference is wide open. That puts potential bubble teams like Fennelly's Cyclones, Missouri, Colorado, Baylor, Oklahoma State and ninth-ranked Texas A&M in direct competition.
It's not an uncommon theory.
"I think there is a window of opportunity for us, and —I think— for a lot of Big 12 teams," Texas A&M coach Peggie Gillon said.
So what happens to number seven?
If this season matches the last, seventh-place is still in. In 2002, seventh place Texas Tech advanced all the way to the NCAA regionals, and eighth-place Missouri received an invitation to the Women's National Invitational Tournament.
But six seemed to be the magic number yesterday, as players and

A columnist's goal is to make readers ponder their perceptions.
One of the easiest ways to know you've accomplished that goal is when readers reply to what you have written. Given the combined 58 e-mails Ryan Wood and I have received for each of our last columns, apparently, we've both nailed empty-netters.
Wood received 55 of those responses for his Friday "I am a Missouri fan" column. There was nearly as much chatter on www.tigerboard.com. Most comments were from irate Missouri fans who did their best, unintentionally I'm sure, to prove each and every one of Wood's

comments correct.
Someone on tigerboard.com even went as far as to post a digitally manipulated photo of two men having sex, one of whose faces was replaced with Wood's mug shot. Looks like Wood's comment about Missouri fans not-so-cleverly calling us "Gayhawks" was dead on.
Kansas State fans were up in arms about my column of thoughts after Saturday's game against Missouri. Not because I made fun of them, but because I talked about Nebraska, bypassing this Saturday's game against K-State.
The three writers of e-mails I received asked if I knew there was a game this

weekend between Kansas State and Kansas.
Of course I knew. I'm the sports editor, and it's my job to know. As I said in my column, though, my thoughts were from
after the Missouri game. I didn't think about Kansas State then because I was more worried about Nebraska. Yes, the Wildcats are ranked and the Cornhuskers aren't, but I expect the Jayhawks to play better at home against a rival than on the road against a team that hasn't lost to Kansas since 1968.
Besides, Nebraska's defense has a nice nickname to use. The "Black Shirts" sounds a lot better than "Kansas State's defense." Apparently, I'm uniformed, though, because someone on the Kansas State message board, www.kstatefans.com, called the Wildcats' defense the "Lynch Mob." I guess
ESPN anchors Kirk Herbstreit, Chris Fowler and Lee Corso are uninformed as well because I've never heard them call K-State's defense that on College Game day. I've actually never heard anyone call them that before while reading the K-State board.

Someone else on the board chastised me for not mentioning Wildcat quarterback Ell Roberson as a mobile signal-caller, who will eat the Jayhawks alive. He reasoned that Robertson was seventh in the Big 12 Conference in both rushing and passing. According to

Weekly gatherings summon spirits for advice, wisdom

"Are you moving it?"
"No,are you?"
Conversations exchanged over candlelit games of Ouija may bring up images of pre-adolescent slumber parties.
But, a group of Wiccan-Pagan Alliance members at the University of Kansas are turning the ancient divination game known as Ouija (pronounced wee-ja) into spiritual exercise.
"Most people think of ouija as a parlor trick more than anything legitimate," Brandon Geistdoerfer-Munger, vicepresident of the alliance, said. "But we get excellent results."
He said he now had notebooks filled with messages from spirits contacted through the ouija spirit or "mystifying oracle."

This is the ritual: three people gather around a smooth, wooden board decorated with a "hello" and "good-bye," two rows of alphabet letters, and the numerals zero through nine. They each take one hand and lightly touch a plastic indicator, called a planchette, with their fingertips.
One person is designated a caller. This person both asks questions of the ouija spirit guide and calls out the letters to which the planchette mysteriously moves. A fourth person takes down any messages spelled out by the spirits.
"A lot of people are very skeptical, even if they are involved," Geistdoerfer-Munger, Overland Park junior, said. "But I trust that others aren't moving it, and I'm not moving it."
The Wiccan-Pagan Alliance's weekly ouija session, held after meetings every Wednesday on the second floor of Hashinger Hall, often attracts a throng of spooked-out onlookers. Bob Irwin, who got involved with the alliance last spring semester, said he personally preferred to stand back and watch the magic happen when the ouija board was out.
"At first I had to ask myself if I was just imagining it or if it was something real," Irwin, Crete, Neb., sophomore, said. Despite his initial skepticism, Irwin finally decided that there was "definitely something outside of us there."
"There were a couple of times the planchette actually left people's hands and drifted a bit before they could touch it again," Irwin said. "We're pretty lucky

in that we have some people who just have a good connection."
The scientific community cites the "ideomotor effect" as the real force behind ouija movement. The ideomotor effect explains that minute variations in muscle tension, multiplied by the number of hands on the planchette, leads to movement across the board. According to psychologists, ouija experimenters are actually projecting their subconscious thoughts and desires onto the board. Spirits are out of the question.
Irwin said two common entities contacted during Hashinger Hall séances were a mischievous trickster named George and an advice-lending "hippie spirit."
Irwin said that the ouija board actually contained a spirit that was physically bound to the game forever. This spirit acts as mediator and soothsayer, and is the primary otherworldly communicator with the group.
During one session, GeistdoerferMunger said two spirits of the hippie variety were dispensing their wisdom.
"One message that I remember from that session was, 'to find love, hold out your palms during the next rain,'" he said.
Kacey Carlson, owner of the Good Earth Mother Alchemy Shoppe, 803 Vermont St., said ouija might be a popular divination method, but it was a "mushy" tool for communicating with the spirit world. She said she didn't recommend ouija boards for the serious spiritualist.
"It's almost impossible to control a ouija board, even for experienced magicians," Carlson said. "That doorway's just too big and too difficult to control."

Kansas Union provides opportunities to indulge in traditional tricks, treats
By Amy Kelly

Jayplay writer
Not in the mood to watch Friday the 13th, Children of the Corn or that special Halloween episode of ER on yet another Halloween? The Kansas Union has a variety of events today that could revive the long-lost trick-or-treaters in us all.
Food for thought
One campus organization is hoping the Lawrence community will take some time from trick-or-treating to treat it with donations of food.
Concerned, Active and Aware Students (CAAS), a student-run segment of the Center for Community Outreach committed to the issues of hunger and homelessness, is using Halloween as an opportunity to trick-or-treat for canned food, not candy.
"It's something that some of our friends on other campuses have done in the past," said Amanda Flott, Omaha, Neb., junior and co-director of CAAS.
"A bunch of us will be out in front of the Kansas Union, and from there we'll go trick-or-treating between 13th and 17th streets collecting canned food items."
Students are encouraged to trick-or-treat with CAAS from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. or drop off donated food items in front of the Kansas Union from 5:30 p.m. to 6 p.m.
For those who cannot participate, ongoing drop-off points are located at the entrances of Twente Hall, and the Hy-Vee and Dillons grocery stores.
The event comes at a time when hunger is a growing problem, Flott said.
"All of the food pantries are really, really low on supplies," Flott said. "Especially with the holidays coming up, it's important that students donate and help as much as they can."
Calling all Bards of Blood
Do you fancy yourself the next Edgar Allen Poe? Do you think Stephen King's Carrie does not compare with your macabre genius? If the answer to either of these questions is yes, the Hawk's Nest, located on the first floor of the Kansas Union, is the place to show off your spooky skills this Halloween.
From 7 p.m. to 9 p.m., students and faculty are encouraged to make hair stand on end by telling original tales of terror.
HALLOWEEN ACTIVITIES
Trick-or-treat with Concerned, Active and Aware Students Between 13th and 17th streets 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.
Food donation drop-off Kansas Union 5:30 p.m. to 6 p.m.
Scary storytelling contest Hawk's Nest, first floor in the Kansas Union
7 p.m. to 9 p.m.
Halloween Open House Fourth floor in the Kansas Union 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
"I want it to be like an open mike type of thing," said Shannon Clayton, Student Union Activities public relations coordinator. "People are encouraged to just come up and tell their original scary stories."
For the three individuals who are the most likely to cause students to sleep with one eye open, the SUA officers are planning to make it worth their while. The first place storytelling winner will receive $100, second place earns $50 and the third place recipient will pocket $25.
Free apple cider and candy will be available to those in attendance.
Dress for the Dollars
"It's the first time in at least four years that there has been something like this at the Union," said Clayton. "I don't even remember anything like this going on since I've been here."
Traditionalists will find themselves right at home today in the Kansas Union lobby. From 10 a.m.to 2 p.m., SUA is also sponsoring a Halloween open house featuring a costume contest, fortune tellers and a magician.
The costume contest does not have specific categories such as scariest, sexiest or most original, but participants will need to be present in the Kansas Union at 12:30 p.m. in order to be eligible.
The first place winner will receive $100 second place will earn a KU hooded sweatshirt and third place will receive a KU hat and shirt.
Other activities include face painting pictures taken with cut-out monsters and free apple cider and candy.

Halloween not scary for Wiccans
By Leslie Kimmel
lkimmel@kansan.com
Jayplay.writer
Larrissa Rothe doesn't see Oct. 31 in a conventional way.Instead of calling it Halloween, she refers to it as Samhain, and instead of seeing it as just a day to dress up, she also sets time aside for meditation and ritual.
Rothe, Omaha, Neb., senior, is president of the Wiccan Pagan Alliance, a group she formed when she was a sophomore.
Rothe said Wicca was a form of Paganism, both of which have diverse followings.
Because every Pagan has a different belief system and uses different definitions, Rothe said, no one practitioner can speak for everyone.
"Wiccans have one rule. It's called the Wiccan Rede: 'And it harm none; do what thou wilt,'" Rothe said. "So basically you can do what you want, as long as it doesn't hurt anyone."
In most cases, each Wiccan belief stems from this original creed. Rothe said her religion was about self-discovery, and no kind of Wiccan book similar to the Christian Bible existed.
Some Wiccans have taken Judaism and Christianity and combined it with Wicca, but Rothe considers herself an eclectic Wiccan because she has taken parts of many beliefs and combined them with traditional Wiccan beliefs.
"I've studied many different religions and many different branches of Paganism and have taken bits and pieces of what feels right to me and formed it into my own belief system," Rothe said.
"I am pretty much Wiccan, but I take from other things," Selenke said.
Amanda Selenke, Winfield senior, also considers herself an eclectic Wiccan. She said she had found parts of other Wiccan systems to form her own personal beliefs.
Most Wiccans consider Samhain, the Wiccan New Year, the most important holiday of the year. Rothe said Samhain was like the Hispanic holiday Dias de los Muertos.
"Wiccans believe that the night of Samhain is when the veil between this world and the spirit world is the thinness, so spirits can cross over," Rothe said. "It is not a scary holiday; it is all about honoring the dead and honoring your ancestors."
Other Pagans recognize Samhain as well. Brandon Geistdoerfer-Munger.
Overland Park junior, said his Pagan belief system was slightly different from Wiccan beliefs, much as Protestant beliefs differ from Catholic beliefs.
Rothe said some Halloween traditions dated as far back as 6000 B.C. but weren't created by Pagans.
The tradition of wearing costumes today was created by some non-Pagans as a practice to scare off demons.
"Pagans wouldn't have dressed up because we are not afraid of the dead," Rothe said.
Other Halloween traditions, such as the American tradition of carving pumpkins, also began as tactics to scare off unwanted spirits.
Most Wiccans believe that everything is made of energy, and they try to tap into that energy to direct it toward a goal, Rothe said.
Rothe said some common misconceptions about Pagans and Wiccans should be ignored.
"It is important to know that witches do not worship Satan. There is no belief in Satan — that is a completely Christian, Muslim and Jewish belief," Rothe said.

Creative costumes spice up Halloween
By Janette Yost jyost@kansan.com Jayplay writer
More men are wearing women's clothing than usual this time of year, according to an employee at Sarah's Costumes.
Sarah's Costumes, 927 Massachusetts St., and Fun & Games, 816 Massachusetts St., are within a block of one another. Both specialize in Halloween costumes.
"We have the biggest stock, but our costumes aren't as unusual as Fun & Games," said Bess Chatman, Sarah's Costumes employee and senior at Lawrence High School.
Guys in drag is one of the most popular costumes of the year, she said. The second most popular for men is the Zoot suit 1920s look.
What's most popular for girls?
"Seventies," Chatman said. "Everybody wants to be a go-go girl. Hats have also been really big this year. Everyone loves the hats."
Sexy nurses are a second favorite for
the ladies.
Maggie Kelley, Kansas City, Mo. freshman,shopped at Sarah's Costumes for her outfit.
"I wanted to be an angel, but it's overdone," Kelley said.
At Fun & Games, Julius Fackler employee and Leavenworth senior, said that nurse outfits were even more popular than angels, and devils, cats and mice also made up many costume sales for women.
"I kind of want to be a sexy nurse," she said, eying a little white dress with a red sequined Greek cross on the torso.
Zach Straus/Kansan
Kyle Billings, Lawrence resident and manager of Fun & Games, said Foxy Cleopatra, from Austin Powers in Goldmember, had been a big seller this year.
"I've seen at least five priest-devil hybrids," he said.
Fackler has sold a lot of doctor, pimp and priest outfits to guys.
"I have sold more Cleopatras this year than I ever have before," Billings said, attributing its success to the headdress

Billings also has sold more Elvis costumes this year than before. He owes that to the wig he has for the outfit.
"I even warn people about it," he said. "Once you try it on, you have to get it, it looks so good."

Tricks not Treats Pranks offer a great way to have fun
By Mindy Osborne
jayplay@kansan.com
Jayplay writer
On Halloween, some people enjoy filling up on candy or going to parties but others may prefer to partake in different entertainment endeavors.
Pranks are a mainstay of the fall holiday and can provide a way for some to express their creativity and have fun. All it takes is a little imagination and maybe some people to go along with it.
Erik Hansey, Olathe freshman, said he and some of his friends didn't limit themselves to either playing pranks or trick-or-treating.
"Last Halloween we ran around naked with a pumpkin on our heads and scared little kids," Hansey said. "It led to getting lots of free candy which is the key to an excellent Halloween experience."
This kind of Halloween fun can bring consequences. If people are caught using toilet paper on or throwing eggs at houses, they could be charged for criminal damage to private property.
Hansey said they enjoyed both.
This is considered a misdemeanor, said Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office.
Those on the receiving end of the pranks may or may not enjoy the joke quite as much as those pulling the prank
Molly Cobb, Overland Park freshman has been the brunt of jokes played by her brothers.
When she was younger, they placed a witch's hat in the middle of the floor.
Her brothers had attached a large bucket of water to the hat through a string of paper clips.
When she picked up the hat, water spilled all over the floor.
Fortunately for her brothers, she was understanding.
"In the beginning I was mad," Cob said, "but finally I got over it."
While pulling pranks can provide entertainment on Halloween, make sure to consider the consequences and other options beforehand.

Horror's influence evident in classroom
By Nathan Dayani ndayani@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
The scope of horror at the University of Kansas extends far beyond pop quizzes and last-minute papers.
Phil Wedge, assistant professor of English, said horror emerged as an important theme in many works of the Romantic era surveyed in his British literature class. He said several Romantic writers such as Samuel Coleridge, Mary Shelley, John Keats and Lord Byron contrasted the sublime with their potential to inspire horror.
"For writers like Coleridge and Shelley, there seems to be a pretty easy transition from a character being inspired by nature to a character being horrified when faced with something beyond the real in the natural world," Wedge said.
He said some students weren't scared by horror in literature because they were used to the visual effects of horror in movies. He said readers who wanted to enjoy horror in literature, such as Shelley's Frankenstein, should appreciate the stories in the context of their time.
"She's counting on their being scared by reanimation of dead matter with a single candle burning late at night with rain coming down during a storm," Wedge said. "Now, we look at those as cliché things, but it wasn't as cliché when Shelley wrote that."
Wedge said horror in literature could be more horrifying than horror in film. He said Frankenstein movies usually highlighted the big stitch in the creature's forehead and the electrodes sticking out of his neck during its reanimation. However, he said the same scene in the book depicted, at root, a more horrific scene.
"The fact that the windows to your soul which are supposed to be your eyes, look unnatural on the creature. The skin is pulled way too tight for the muscular body that Frankenstein has given his creature underneath the skin." Wedge said. "That's what really makes horror, those kinds of details, because they elicit a psychological response from the reader."
John Tibbetts, associate professor of theater and film, said the tale of terror was an important form of expression for every generation.
"I really believe it's an important part of our culture," he said. "Every generation
has to put on its spook masks, rattle its bones and generally feel fear of the terror of the unknown."
Tibbetts taught a class about the gothic tradition in horror films about three years ago. He said the texts of his gothic film class included Men Women and Chainsaws and The Monster Show: A Cultural History of Horror. He said the class first examined the history of gothic horror as a counter-reaction to the Enlightenment.
"People found that rational views didn't always hack it," Tibbetts said. "There needed to be a perception that the world goes crazy sometimes and isn't always involved in rational discourse."
Tibbetts also said the class studied the gothic works of artists Francisco Goya and Theodore Gericault as well as gothic literature from the Romantic era. As the class progressed, students studied films depicting the tale of terror from the days of silent films to the present.
Horror has even contributed to the highest level of academia. Ian Ellis, lecturer in English, integrated horror into his dissertation about how punk culture transcended various facets of American society.
In his analysis of punk in the Heartland, Ellis analyzed the splatter-punk genre of film in the 1980s. He said the films satirized the era's mainstream horror movies, often characterized by moral resolutions and happy endings.
"They were basically saying horror has become extremely conservative, it lost its edge and kind of nihilism," he said. "Basically, the splatter-punks wanted to rupture the roots of death, fear, transgression and mess with the system in whatever way they could."
Some of the splatter-punk films Ellis analyzed in his dissertation included Zombie Island Massacre, Return of the Living Dead 2, Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 and Blood Sucking Freaks.
True to their low-budget, edgy punkrock qualities, Ellis said splatter-punk films usually ended violently and without resolution.
"You won't necessarily have a lot of happy endings with the splatter-punk films," he said. "They're very much associated with that kind of gutter-punk aesthetic."

Horror flicks offer haunting Halloween
Editor's note: Halloween offers many entertainment options, ranging from trick-or-treating to pulling pranks to partying. But if you opt to stay in this holiday, a good horror movie and a bowl of popcorn may be the best form of entertainment. Here are the best horror films as selected by journalism students in an opinion and commentary class.
The Shining By Leah Shaffer
Viewers may only remember The Shining from the foaming-at-the-mouth, "Here's Johnny!" scene with Jack Nicholson. That's a shame, because the movie is so much more than just hammy performances and ax swinging. The true creepiness of The Shining is felt during the early quiet scenes when director Stanley Kubrick sets up the Torrance family in the Overlook Hotel.
Jack Torrance.
Jack Torrance, played by Nicholson, brings his family along for a winter caretaker job at an emptied Colorado hotel. Viewers soon see that some very malignant ghosts haunt Overlook. Jack's son Danny, played by Danny Lloyd, has menacing visions of
STANLEY KUBRICK COLLECTION
STANLEY KUBRICK'S THE SHINING
the ghosts using his "shining," or psychic power. It doesn't really help the situation that Jack, as a recovering alcoholic, seems about ready to jump off the deep end from the beginning. In the original novel written by Stephen King, Jack's character is supposed to be a loving, sane father who falls victim to the evils of the hotel. Characteristically, Kubrick tinkers with the plot and, this time around, Jack's character seems to seethe with rage from the first scene.
Just as Nicholson seems on the verge of going ballistic because of the eerie setting, his wife, Wendy, played by Shelley Duvall who always seems on the verge of hysteria becomes a pushover. While those two characters are over-the-top, Lloyd plays Danny son like a walking zombie. It's all one big, happy, dysfunctional, psychotic family. An actor does not play the best character in the film; the Overlook itself is the true star of the show. And, for all its quirks, The Shining is still the definitive horror film about good people going bad in evil places.

The Exorcist
By Meghan Bainum
Now that the old gateway to hell in Stull has been razed, University of Kansas students looking to add a little demonic overtone to their Halloween days need only head to the nearest video rental store to pick up a copy of The Exorcist.
Although the film is almost 30 years old, the freaky body-bending, head-twisting, crucifix-abusing action keeps this movie at the forefront of the horror genre.
The Exorcist gruesomely portrays the demonic possession of a little girl named Regan, played by Linda Blair, and the battle between the forces of good and evil for ownership of the girl's soul. Blair, who has forever remained linked with her pea soup-

vomiting character, does a horrifying job of making the demon's possession seem vivid and realistic, and her descent into madness is both shocking and graphic.
Though many who saw The Exorcist left the theater sick to their stomachs or unconscious because of the gore, today's viewer should be more comfortable with the graphic violence and deviant sexual undertones. Still, The Exorcist is a sure scare for Halloween-time movie nights, and only the truly brave could watch the movie alone and at night without feeling more than a little bit disturbed.

The Blair Witch Project By Lucas Wetzel
"In October of 1994, three student filmmakers disappeared in the woods near Burkittsville, Maryland, while shooting a documentary. A year later, their footage was found."
So began the The Blair Witch Project, the low-fidelity flick that first spooked audiences in July 1999. Since then, the "project" has been uncovered as a hoax, a War of the Worlds-type documentary designed to titillate audiences and bring in a few bucks.
But even in October of 2002 — eight years after the filmmakers' disappearance — original viewers of the film still whisper, "It's like the Blair Witch Project," every time they walk past a group of more than three trees after sundown. Even for those who
guff at such remarks, the words "Blair Witch" have become synonymous with losing your way after dark, with all kinds of things bumping and screaming in the night.
The film follows the documentary project of film student Heather Donahue, her camera man Joshua Leonard and sound operator Michael Williams, which are all the real names of the actors. The three aim to chronicle the legend of the Blair Witch - a

While Josh uses 16 millimeter black-and-white film, Heather captures the action on High-8 video for a behind the scenes look at how their movie was made. What the viewer sees, of course, is the actual footage taken by the actors — an unprecedented camera view for audiences at the time. The characters are real people, college students who just want to scare up some interesting footage for their project. But when noises and strange omens begin appearing in the woods, the film gets scary and the camera work gets shaky. Several times the screen is enveloped in darkness and all the viewer hears are the screams and pleas of the actors as horror sets in on the project.
Will The Blair Witch Project continue to scare future audiences? There are no big actors here, no visual beauty to return to. Without all the hype that surrounded its initial release, the film will most likely fade into obscurity. Until it is dusted off by an ambitious film student or director, at which point we'll learn if the legend of the fictional Blair Witch will ever die.
Carrie
By Kristi Henderson
Carrie is the ultimate revenge movie for anyone who didn't fit in during high school.
In director Brian DePalma's 1976 film adaptation of Stephen King's novel, Carrie, played by Sissy Spacek, is a social misfit with a telekinesis gift. Carrie is constantly taunted by girls in her high school. Add to that Carrie's religious-zealot mother, Margaret, played by Piper Laurie, who tells Carrie "pimples are the Lord's way of chastising," and Carrie is a seriously troubled teen.
Carrie is socially inept. She's clueless in
gym class and rarely talks to anyone. She has yet to meet her monthly friend, so when she starts menstruating in the shower, Carrie panics and acts as if she's dying.
Instead of receiving sympathy from her classmates, she's bombarded with tampons. Amid her mania, her telekinetic powers make their debut, breaking a light bulb.
The girls who taunted Carrie are punished by either serving detention with the gym teacher for a week or having their prom tickets refused. All of the girls except one are upset about this and direct their anger toward Carrie.
Sue, played by Stephen Spielberg's ex
wife Amy Irving, is the girl who has a change of heart toward Carrie. She persuades her boyfriend — also Carrie's crush — Tommy Ross, played by William Katt, to be Carrie's prom date.
As Sue's benevolent plan unfolds, Carrie's most

vengeful taunter, Chris, played by Nancy Allen, through the persuasive power of a blow job, convinces her boyfriend Billy, played by a post-Welcome Back Kotter John Travolta, to help her bring a prom prank to fruition.
When prom night arrives, Carrie is wearing makeup and a dress that reveals what her mother calls her "dirty pillows." But the prom is like a dream come true for Carrie. Nobody laughs at her, and she gets her first kiss.
Until she and Tommy win prom king and queen, Carrie realizes she should have listened to her mother and stayed home. Chris and Billy dump a bucket of pig blood on Carrie as she stands on stage, receiving her royal title.
Carrie busts out the telekinetic terror, willing the gym doors shut and drenching terrified prom-goers with a fire hose. The glares she directs from her sunken eyes are intense, making the skinny Spacek look like a psycho skeleton. After she's satisfied, with her revenge, Carrie placidly emerges from the prom-night chaos and never looks back.
This movie is a classic not only because of the creepy, troubled mother-daughter team of Laurie and Spacek, but also because those outed by the in-crowd can identify with her rage.

'Ghost Ship'sinks quickly
FILM
The sounds of an Italian lounge singer waft through the air as the passengers aboard a cruise ship dance and sip champagne. At the corner of the dance floor, a little girl in a blue dress is playing with a string of beads. On each bead is a different letter, and the girl rearranges the beads to spell "I am bored," beautifully summing up the only thing I felt like screaming while watching Ghost Ship.
PLEASE READ THE TEXT BEFORE USING THE PHOTO.
Peter Black pblack@kansan.com
Sure, the preview never made Ghost Ship look very good, especially with a tag line like "sea evil", but at least there was hope that director Steve Beck, (Thirteen Ghosts) would be able to create another somewhat frightening film just in time for Halloween. However, the film never even stirs the waters of being frightening. All it does, in fact, is drown in a pool of clichés.
Contributed art
By now, everyone should know that greed will only lead to your demise. The idea has been exploited in thousands of movies, like all the Indiana Jones films, but Ghost Ship decides to travel those waters again. A pilot, Desmond Harrington, proposes to a crew of ocean salvagers (Gabriel Byrne, Julianna Margulies and Ron Eldard) to recover a mysterious ship he had discovered on one of his flights over
the Bering Strait. Enticed by the allure of possible riches, the crew tracks down the ocean liner despite its disappearing and reappearing on the radar.
Julianna Margulies stars in Warner Bros. and Village Roadshow Pictures' horror film Ghost Ship.

Slowly, the members of the crew begin to figure out that an unexplainable force is keeping them on the ship. A freak propane accident blows up their tug boat and forces
Once aboard, the crew creeps through the darkness of the rust-covered hallways like intruders in the night. Their flashlights light the dim corridors showing a neverending possibility of rooms slowly revealing evidence that something horrible had happened aboard the ship. Bullet holes line the walls of an emptied pool, containers of rat poison line kitchen counters, and a bloodied razor blade lies crusted to a sink bowl.

them to try to repair the cruise ship to save their lives. But one by one, they are gruesomely killed.
The crew decides to split up and send each member out to explore the ship alone and work in some unnecessary nudity. Ghost Ship continues to re-use elements from all other horror films but forgets one
thing horror films are supposed to be scary. All the surprises lurking around the dark corners of this film stick out like a lighthouse in the night.
Ghost Ship has few life jackets to help it stay afloat. An intriguing music video-like flashback uses slow- and fast-motion camera work to show the spree of killings that took place on the ship. The film did come up with new and horrible ways to die. Even though the film pushes the limits on grotesque scenes of death, the rest of Ghost Ship never lives up to the grittiness of those scenes, leaving the film to sink.

Spirits loose in Lawrence
Suspicion of supernatural at local sites
By Caleb Nothwehr
cnothwehr@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The elevator door closes slowly on the fifth floor of the Eldridge Hotel. Then, without warning, it flies open.
"It only happens on the fifth floor," said Rich Monhollon, front desk clerk at the Eldridge.
The 48-room building at 701 Massachusetts St. stands out as a figurehead for paranormal activity in Lawrence. But it's not alone. Lawrence and the KU campus boast a rich history of supposed supernatural occurrence.
Uninvited guests
At the Eldridge, lights periodically flicker on and off, guests relay stories of noisy walls, and, in room 506, there is rumored to be a gateway to another dimension.
Some workers at the Eldridge try as best
as they can to discount the strange occurrences.
"I always try to pass it off like my mind is playing tricks on me," Monhollon said.
Perhaps the most compelling evidence of possible ghosts in the hotel is a publicity photo taken in the mid 1980s. In the background of the picture, a shadowy silhouette of a person lingers in the elevator shaft. None of the current employees had an explanation for the ghostly figure.
Monhollon said he had heard it was explained as a double exposure, but he said that explanation didn't make sense.
"I've seen double exposures before, and usually it would be present throughout the entire photo," he said.
The majority of strange sightings at the Eldridge have come from those who regularly roam the halls of the building: the housekeeping staff.
Marge O'Neal, director of housekeeping, has worked at the hotel for 14 years and said she had heard several stories of
lights flickering and strange noises in the walls.
But O'Neal said she was not convinced of any supernatural activity until recently.
Earlier this fall, O'Neal went into room 506 to close the curtains in the bedroom. She leaned against the television armoire to do her cleaning. She left the bedroom briefly, and when she returned, all the drawers of the television armoire had been pulled open.
Only weeks ago, while O'Neal was giving interested guests a tour of 506, a coffee pot on the counter moved a few inches without anyone touching it.
"Seeing those drawers and that coffee pot — those events are unexplained," O'Neal said.
Although staff at the Eldridge have had to put up with some unexplained occurrences, most workers agree that the unregistered guests aren't out for blood.

Patrons and staff members of the Eldridge Hotel, 701 Massachusetts St., say there are rumors that ghosts roam the corridors of the 48-room building. One story suggested that room 506 contained a gateway to another dimension.

THE LEGACY OF THE MUSEUM
Zach Straus/Kansan
The fireplace in the Sigma Nu house is rumored to be the final resting place of the ashes of a former inhabitant named Virginia. Drew Brewer, Overland Park junior, said Virginia had killed herself in the upstairs ballroom when the Sigma Nu house was being used as the governor's mansion in the early 1900s. Residents, Brewer said, have reported seeing and hearing doors slam randomly and other odd occurrences.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 8
"If we do have a ghost here, they're not here to be scary," Monhollon said. "They're pretty well-behaved."
Spirits in their midst
A different set of haunting stories emanates from the Haskell Indian Nations University in Lawrence. Instead of mischievous spooks, stories about recently deceased students or faculty roaming the campus are prevalent.
"Some reports come from small children who describe a person who has been dead for several years," said Benny Smith, former director of counseling services on the Haskell campus.
Smith said the students at Haskell were more open to stories about spirits.
"It was about the love she had for her parents," Smith said.
"We have students from different cultural backgrounds." Smith said. "So there is a high degree of sensitivity to spiritual presence."
Smith told one story of a former student who died in a car accident. Weeks after the accidents, students were reporting a strange light coming from the deceased girl's former dorm room. When Smith went to search the room, he found a letter from the girl written to her parents. Smith couldn't explain where the letter came from.
Haunting campus
On the KU campus,a story of a ghost in the Sigma Nu fraternity house is well-
known throughout the KU community. A Sigma Nu Mother's Club letter from March 1976, on file at the Watkins Community Museum of History, suggests former governor Walter Roscoe Stubbs had a mistress who committed suicide on the third floor of the house. The letter goes on to suggest that her body was buried behind a fireplace in the house, and that she haunts the house.
But not as many people know about rumors of ghosts invading the floors of Corbin hall.
"South Corbin is really old and it makes a lot of funny noise," said Courtney Kaytis, desk assistant at Corbin. The Willimantic, Conn., senior said she encountered strange occurrences while making her security rounds. Kaytis said she often heard creaking noises in empty hallways and saw doors fly open for no reason.
Residents of south Corbin have mixed emotions about whether there are ghosts.
Norie McEwen, Topeka freshman, said she didn't believe ghosts inhabited her residence hall, but she had heard rumors.
"At first they said this used to be a mental place, but I don't really believe it," McEwen said.
Some residents are convinced otherwise.
Jessica Schuster, Topeka freshman, said she had heard strange noises.
"The first week, it sounded like furniture on the floor above us," Schuster said. "We went upstairs and everyone was asleep."

Setting a scary scene with Halloween songs
By Patrick Cady
pcady@kansan.com
Jayplaywriter
Be it a party bent on raising the dead ora soulful seance, music can set the Halloween mood. Here are ten songs and noises to fill the frightful Halloween night air.
10. "Paint It, Black" by The Rolling Stones
This track establishes the night if not the color scheme with a vaguely Arabic melody. Mick Jagger's voice seems to transport the listener to a higher depressive plane.
9. Any piece of carnival music
The calliope organ playing in offrhythms always adds a sense of unease in the horror movie. Check out work by Hal Davis, an artist known for the calliope or a CD of carousel music.
8. "Monster Mash" by Bobby "Boris" Pickett
It is cliché, but what a beautiful cliché. This piece has reached the "top 100" three times since its introduction in 1962. 7. "Sonne" by Rammstein
The title of this track from the German metal outfit translates to "sun." It is operatic in its breadth and is a good start to introduce some over-the top-metal into your ghost-filled night.
6. Soundtrack to Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho by Bernard Hermann
It was the music to a cinematic classic of suspense. The musical backing to the famous shower scene could be the perfect frame to a speed pumpkin-carving contest.
5. Anything by GWAR
This band is to Halloween like water is to the ocean. Costumes, fake blood and churning metal are part of its live shows, and this spirit exudes onto its albums. It would be a safe bet for any Halloween get together, not to mention a fun idea for a theme party.
4. "Clowns Will Eat Me" by Alice Cooper
Before GWAR there was Alice. This track taps into the universal human fear of cannibalistic clowns and speaks to all who want to celebrate Halloween in style.
3. "Iron Man" by Black Sabbath
There are few songs as heavy, as towering and as bloody rocking as this classic by the creators and masters of heavy metal. Ozzy Osbourne sings of the metal man on a rampage.
This track is guaranteed to liven up a party and send several joints out of socket as people frantically play air guitar.
2. Wooooooo by you or anyone around
To imitate the call of a ghost is, perhaps, the most poetic way to summarize the spirit of Halloween. Alternating the woo from low to high pitches will create the best effect.
Frightfully bad books
1. "Dream of the Witche's Sabbath" from Symphone Fantastique by Hector Berlioz
This piece would be perfect for the more laid back. It was written during the romantic period as sort of a soundtrack to a hallucination of dancing demons and witches as they collect for an infernal mass. Fitting, if not overly intense.
By Henry C. Jackson
cjackson@kansan.com
Jayplay writer
Halloween can provide its fair share of scary material: ghouls, ghosts, skeletons, spiders, witches and this isn't even considering millions of costumed preteens hopped up on sugar.
But for a real fright, you might want to head to your local bookstore. A quick perusal of the bargain shelves will leave you feeling a whole new kind of terror. Book titles such as How to Make Every Girl Want You and Get Laid Without Even Dating can give off just as many cold shudders as a bump in the night. And, these are only the most obvious examples of books so bad you're scared to think of what the publisher was thinking.
Lurking somewhere on a bookshelf near you is something just as scary as an unexplained bump in the night: an awful book hiding in a legitimate book's body. Here are three books that you should read only if you get your kicks from true literary terror.
The Hottest State(1997) by Ethan Hawke
Ethan Hawke is a good actor. Unfortunately, he is an awful, unoriginal writer. The Hottest State was published in 1997, when the image of Hawke as a young, precocious Gen Xer with talent to spare seemed legitimate. But Hawke's debut novel proved he should stick to acting. Lampooned by critics and the poor saps who paid full price alike, The Hottest State is a semi-autobiographical novel about Hawke's relationship with one-hit-wonder Lisa Loeb. It features lines so bad they should echo in literature for eternity, such as this tender, touching moment Hawke's protagonist shares with his lover: "And I put my hand on her ass, because it
made her feel sexy." After reading The Hottest State, you might well wish someone would use their foot instead of their hand on Hawke's posterior.
The Bridges of Madison County(1992) by Robert James Waller
There are two main problems with this book: one, it's boring, sappy and overly hyped, and two, it is responsible for causing Clint Eastwood, once the man among men as Dirty Harry, to spit out sappy, uninspired dialogue with Meryl Streep in the book's film version. The sappy story is something like this: a world famous photographer (Eastwood in the movie) accidentally ends up in Iowa (doesn't everyone end up in Iowa by accident?), and falls in love with a comely Iowa farm wife (Streep). An English professor consulted for this story nominated this novel by calling it "certainly one of the worst books ever written." That being said, there are many who swear by this book: Amazon.com calls it "the romantic classic of the '90s." Battlefield Earth(1982) by L. Ron Hubbard
Battlefield Earth (1982) by L. Ron Hubbard
It might be unfair to blame this book for the atrocious two-hour John Travolta suckest that resulted from it, but if you can't blame the book, what can you blame? L. Ron Hubbard was an excellent science-fiction writer. His popularity, even today, astounds. But this, his epic thousand-page or so saga of intergalactic warfare and slavery (think Star Wars meets Spartacus) is both too long, and too boring. Granted, space combat is a fun time – but only in doses. A thousand pages is a long space to talk about anything, and rest assured this book has its fair share of sag. If you're the sort who watches the movie so you can pretend that you read the book, you might just want a puke bucket to keep next to your popcorn.

Daily disguises bring sexy Halloween fun
SEX
Putting on a costume when it's not Halloween could help net you some tantalizing treats, and I'm not talking about candy bars and pieces of gum.
CEX
Meghan Bainum
mbainum@kansan.com
Costumes are a fun way to take sexual situations from routine to risqué, no walking around in the cold involved. In fact, add a little disguise to your love life and you might never leave your house.
Costumes are definitely more than just kid stuff, and donning some sleazy lotlizard Spandex, a panda bear suit or a fake beard can cause some adult feelings. Being in costume can bring a freedom to sex that is sometimes hard to get while running around in your own skin.
Suddenly it isn't you talking dirty to your lover and tickling his or her butt with a feather duster, it's your other persona—the naughty maid or housekeeper.
Changing your sexual persona can be as easy as slipping on an article or two of
clothing you don't usually wear and taking off your normal, everyday duds.
Men going to Halloween parties dressed as women are a pretty common sight. Lawrence is guaranteed to be filled with closely shaven young men adorned with wigs, stroking their balloon breasts and tottering on their female friend's high heels. Maybe one or two will up the ante and adorn some pretty panties or a lacy bra.
Women, too, get in the cross-dressing
spirit,donning fake facial hair with a sock stuffed in their boxer-briefs. There's something erotic about seeing a man as a woman and vice versa.Multiply this eroticism by about 100,and you'll understand what it's like to mess around with costumes in your sexual lives.
It's fun to make it more than just a sock, or two balloons, and actually assume a more masculine or feminine attitude in love and sex. Elaborate productions, while fun, aren't always necessary—a pair of panties on a guy, or a woman with her hand down the front of a pair of boxers can help imagination along just fine.
If you're into it, though, feel free to go all the way with your temporary attitude and appearance adjustment. Cross-dress on a random night to get that crazy tinge of Halloween excitement any time of the year.
If you're not comfortable with the idea
of turning into a different sex, just free yourself from your usual "look" to become someone totally different. Play cops and robbers, cowboys and Indians or even cats and dogs if you wish.
In fact, there's a whole sub-set of people who really like to get it on in a full-length costume — head included. Just remember, while most of these people, called furries, buy their own costumes, you'll probably be renting yours so be careful what you get in the fur.
When you're running around in your costume, take a second to think about all the erotic possibilities that can come with dressing a little differently than usual.
Then "forget" to take that gorilla suit back to the costume shop or keep that vampire outfit and fangs in the front of your closet — Halloween comes only once a year, but sex can be had any day. Isn't it wonderful?

FASHION
As I walk through my apartment, I notice that many of our framed pictures, hanging on our walls and magnetized to our refrigerator door, are from past Halloweens. No matter where you find yourself, at a fraternity party surrounded by a masquerade of Hugh Hefners and Playboy Bunnies or going from black and orange-garnished brouhaha to brouhaha on Ohio Street, Halloween is always memorable — sometimes only because of the aforementioned pictures.
Sara Behunek sbehunek@kansan.com
I'll be the first to admit that I never plan out a costume very far in advance. Not that I do not get in the spirit, but there is a certain exhilaration that comes with last-minute costume designs. For example, my freshman year, my two closest friends and I
bought little-boys' undershirts and ironed on "Seniors" to the front. Then we squeezed out freshman-15 behind in some cut-offs, pulled on knee-high socks and were the senior girls from the movie Dazed and Confused that hazed the incoming freshman. Not everyone at The Hawk caught on, but the best picture from
that night is still the screen-saver on my friend's computer. Memorable.
One of my roommates was recalling her favorite last-minute costume the other day as we were brainstorming ideas for this Halloween. Last year, she ran into a guy who had wrapped himself in white paper – think the kind from the rolls in elementary school – cut holes so he could see, colored the bottom brown, the very top red and was a walking cigarette. To top it all off, when he smoked that night, he exhaled out of the top of his costume so he was "lit." Inventive.
Having complementing or matching costumes is always a favorite for couples. The easiest and cheapest one I have heard of is a Greek god and goddess. Re-usable for a toga party and completely obtainable,
the divine couple accessorized their outfit with a lightning-bolt rod for him and a stein for her, which were both spray painted gold. Let us guess which one got more use that night. Cute.
We can also venture to the more raunchy side of Halloween costuming. My other roommate snickered as she described what an ex of hers had decided to sport one year. He wrote on a piece of poster board, "free mammogram machine" and wore it hanging on his neck with some string. Probably the most time-efficient and cheapest of all the previously mentioned costumes. Witty.
You can never use the "I don't have a costume excuse" on Oct. 31. Be creative, be resourceful and do not forget to bring a camera.

Halloween treats scare up some flavor tonight
Remember dressing up as a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle or the rock-star doll Jem for Halloween?
Oh, how innocent childhood was when Halloween was all about trick-or-treating, dressing up as our favorite super heroes and having more candy than the other boys and girls.
Our age of innocence is history. The once G.I. Joes and Cinderellas are now dressed as pimps and sexy kittens, and the view of Halloween has changed to an event filled with lavish costumes, drinking and parties.
Whatever kind of gala students attend or host tonight, it will surely be an unforgettable moment in college.
If throwing a party, get a couple of friends together, split the cost of groceries and put together these fabulous, easy appetizers.
It won't take more than 30 minutes if you have a few friends helping out. Happy Halloween everyone.
Instructions:
First, get some Halloween decorations such as a tablecloth,some cobwebs and tiny pumpkins or whatever other Halloween decorations you would like to adorn your table.

'The Truth'in movie is hard to figure out
FILM
I'll have you in the room. I'll just sit there and watch the show. You don't need to move around.
An eclectic mix of style, setting, music and culture punctuates Jonathan Demne's new romantic thriller, The Truth About Charlie.
Regina Lambert (Thandie Newton), searching for answers about her husband's murder and a missing fortune, seems to encounter Joshua Peters (Mark Wahlberg) at every turn in The Truth About Charlie.
Thandie Newton (Deme's Beloved) stars as Regina Lampert, Charlie's trophy wife, who's taking a breather from her new husband on the beaches of Martinique. In the film's opening scene, Charlie (Stephen Dillane) is murdered after a quick tryst on a train. Regina returns home to the couple's liquidated apartment, where the police are waiting to tell her about Charlie's demise and the myriad list of other facts she didn't know about him during their three months of marriage.

The sinister goons tracking Regina — Emil, Lola and II-Sang— knew Charlie all too well. So did Mr. Bartholomew (Tim Robbins), the mysterious U.S. Embassy man who appears with tales of Charlie's paramilitary career.
Even more enigmatic is Joshua Peters (Mark Wahlberg), the charming stranger who crops up whenever Regina is in danger. Once the principal characters are established, the film alternates between Joshua and Regina's romance and the forces with which Joshua is either clashing or colluding.
Of course, nothing is what it seems, and almost everybody gets to play the hero and the villain, often both in the same minute.
'THE TRUTH ABOUT CHARLIE'
★★★ (OUT OF FOUR)
Starring Thandie Newton, Mark Wahlberg and Tim Robbins
Rated PG-13 for some violence and sexual content/nudity
Playing at Southwind 12,3433 Iowa St.
Regina Lampert is really Regina Lake, and Joshua Peters is really Carson Dial, but only until the next plot twist.
Identity shifting can be fun, but it doesn't allow for a lot of character dimension. Demme has less control of his pacing than usual, but The Truth About Charlie is undeniably a director-specific movie, and Demme typically sets a gold standard.
Demme's movie is slight but fresh, from its stylized depiction of death to its salsa and reggae soundtrack. The Silence of the Lambs Oscar-winning director brings a literate sense of place and culture to Charlie's Paris locales. His progressive approach allows for interracial romance and a colorblind use of extras. Nearly every frame is brimming with diversity.
Adapted from the 1963 film Charade, Charlie is ultimately beneath a director of Demme's caliber, resembling a great jazz artist's riff on beginner's material. His love
for the obscure — the film features a solo Greek Chorus played by Charles Aznavour, the international star of Francois Truffaut's
Shoot the Piano Player - is bound to alienate audiences and probably means Charlie shouldn't be viewed with a mainstream mentality. For his fans, Demme always has a lesson or two to teach.
This film, based on Tom Perrotta's interpretation of the 1992 Presidential election, may be set in a high school but ends up being one of the best essays on the seduction of politics. Even as Tracy Flick (a now sold-out Reese Witherspoon) competes against the high school football king (Chris

A silver screen primer for the upcoming elections
This is the time of year when ghouls and goblins knock at every door with their hands extended, looking for something. It's a time when the airwaves are filled with images designed to frighten and horrify the viewer. This is not Halloween but Election Day I'm referring to.
The elections are coming next Tuesday, and it's important for everyone to take the time to inform themselves who's with him or her on the issues.
But what do you do when you've lost all philosophical and ideological footing? Here are a few titles worth looking at for the best and the worst our political system has to offer.
Klein) to be elected student body president, it is obvious that even these politics are about power. While it may seem odd, this Alexander Payne satire offers some biting thoughts on the political structure of our country. What's more, the sex jokes are funny.
The Candidate(1972)
Yes, the plot of this film is dated. The film addresses the Vietnam War and the debates about the formulation of a "welfare state." Robert Redford's Bill McKay is a fascinating study of a man who goes from an idealist to a person sucked into the system within one election. It is both scathing and heartbreaking. It can remind the viewer of the best and worst of the system, and it's clear that Redford has the style and the charm to sell all of it.

president who falls for an environmental lobbyist (Annette Bening). West Wing creator and American President writer Aaron Sorkin did his homework with the political jargon and created a well-done and sweet-natured love story.
Dr. Strangelove or How I Stopped Worrying and Learned to Love the Bomb(1964)
This may be a disconcerting flick with
the current prospect of war, but it is one that should make everyone question the intentions and intelligence of those in charge. The story, set during the Cold War, is about a bomb that goes off without either the Americans or Russians knowing what causes it to go off. The movie stars a talented Peter Sellers in multiple roles and an enthusiastic Slim Pickens.
Mr. Smith Goes to Washington(1939)
Finally, a film that can make you believe in the system. Jimmy Stewart stars as the young idealist who gets elected to Senate and is able to charge Capitol Hill. This may seem unbelievable in these days, but watching Stewart's final speech evokes memories of the likes of the late Paul Wellstone. We can only hope that all of the candidates have a bit of Mr. Smith in them.
All these films can give you some motivation for Election Day. Watch some movies, get out and go vote.

Play depicts family tragedy
War is a difficult time for soldiers and their families. When a member of your family starts the war, it can be especially difficult.
Before the events portrayed in Euripides' Iphigenia at Aulis, part of the University Theatre's Inge series, the Greeks are waiting to set sail for Troy. Paris, a Trojan prince, stole Helen, the wife of King Menelaus of Sparta.To reclaim Helen, Menelaus asks the rulers of other Greek kingdoms to join him against Troy. His brother Agamemnon is made commander of the Greek forces.
At the start of the play, Agamemnon struggles with a difficult decision. The gods have revealed to him that his ships will be unable to leave port until he makes a sacrifice. In order to leave, he must sacrifice his eldest daughter, Iphigenia, to the goddess Artemis.
The production, directed by Sara Armstrong, Cushing, Okla., graduate student presents a progression of emotions from anger to despair. Arguments break out between the characters as they try to cope with the their horrible situation.
Joseph Boothe, who plays Agamemnon shows the struggle of choosing between the life of a daughter and the honor of brother and country. Boothe, Overland Park senior, effectively demonstrates the emotional conflict inside Agamemnon, dealing not only with issues of loyalty, but also of family.
Euripides presents Helen of Troy differently from the "face that launched a thousand ships," a view that many may be familiar with. Helen, who is never seen, is often regarded as a whore or a harlot in this play, mainly by her sister Clytemnestra, who is also Agamemnon's wife, played by Allison Gabbard, Topeka senior.
Gabbard's performance realistically shows a mother's reaction when told her daughter is to die. Angry that her daughter

Actor Joe Boothe, Overland Park senior, puts a stranglehold on Phillip Vocasek, Dodge City senior, as their characters Agamemnon and Menelaus quarrel in the play Iphigenia at Aulis.
IPHIGENIA ATAULIS
The Greek tragedy by Euripides, translated by Elaine Terranova, will be performed on Oct. 31 and Nov. 1 and 2 at the Inge Theatre at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $12 for the public, $6 for students and $11 for senior citizens. The play is directed by Sara K. Armstrong, with scenic design by Emily Elder and lighting design by Brian Diltz.
Carter's performance of Iphigenia's plea for her life brought tears to the eyes of many members of the audience, and the fervor Carter displays when Iphigenia realizes her power is striking.
has to die to save a tramp, Clytemnestra tries in vain to plead with Agamemnon.
Armstrong brings some interesting touches to her production of Iphigenia. Classical elements of Greek theater have been incorporated into the show. The chorus wears masks and Greek-inspired dresses to emphasize its femininity. Also, tents are set at both ends of the staging area similar to the skene, a multi-purpose set piece of ancient Greek theater.
Iphigenia, played by Megan Carter, Overland Park sophomore, is placed in a unique situation. Lured to the Greek camp by her father with promises of a marriage to Achilles, she soon finds out the truth. Though shocked at first, Iphigenia eventually realizes the power of her situation as a martyr.
Another interesting touch is the separation of the sexes. Audience members are separated by gender, with the women facing the men. Armstrong said the seating was planned to force the audience to watch the reactions to lines such as "I rule my women folk."
Patriotic songs are also used to emphasize the theme of loyalty to one's country. At one point, Greek soldiers sing that Iphigenia must die, to the tune of "My Country 'Tis of Thee." The chorus occasionally delivers lines to familiar songs, including "The Star-Spangled Banner."
Mixing classical Greek theater, heavy emotion and modern touches, Euripides' Iphigenia at Aulis presents an interesting view of the personal impact of war.

Force opens gate to hell

Kansan satire writer
Shards from bottles of fermented pig blood were all that was left after The Countless Forces of Utter Darkness (CFUD) commemorated its newest "Gate to Hell" last night. The gate, located in front of the KU Visitors' Center near the intersection of 15th and Iowa streets, was the first to be opened after the famous "Sickly Yellow Gate" was razed in Stull last spring.
“(the construction) was a beautiful thing,” said Darius Malfeasance, Sub Demon first class and project foreman. “Once the humans finished their meaningless work, we saw we had something really amazing.”
Malfeasance first pitched the idea of the newest gate to his superiors three days after the "Sickly Yellow Gate" hit the ground.
"When it fell, we knew we had a problem," Malfeasance said. "So I went up to the big Horned Guy and pitched the idea. He was pretty jazzed."
KU administrators and faculty, however, weren't so jazzy.
"This is an unadulterated outrage," said Wimbley Scott, professor of architecture and theology. "That gate should give visitors a first taste of KU's beautiful landscape and welcome them. Not, I repeat, trap their immortal souls."
Hiram "Mick" Luden-Feldmeisten, Abilene sophomore, is ambivalent about the gate.
"I guess the CFUD already had a presence
here with Starbucks, so maybe this gate is the next natural step," Luden-Feldmeisten said. "I mean, I've passed the thing for weeks. At least now it has some sort of purpose."
Area trick-or-treater not too old

Mike Bond loves Halloween. He dresses up every year to go trick-or-treating. While this may be acceptable for a six-year-old, Mike draws a lot of stares at 46.
"I just can't resist the idea of getting to dress up as someone else, and then getting free candy to boot." Bond said.
Bond said the whole idea of Halloween got him excited. He said he started to plan in mid-June because he "goes all out" with unusual decorations.
"One year I really wanted to do sort of a 'Ghosts of the Wild Kingdom' theme, but I had a really hard time finding dead animals," he said. "I could find parts, but to get whole animal corpses I ended up collecting road kill at the last minute. I'm never doing that again."
Bond's passion for Halloween is seen as a strange obsession by his neighbors.
Neighbor Debbie Pubés said Bond kind of scared her. Pubés, who lives two doors down from Bond, does not let her eight-year-old son go near Bond.
"Every year he has asked if he could go

trick-or-treating with my kid," Pubés said. "I just kind of shrugged it off as weird. Last year was different. He dressed up as a clown and had this creepy John Wayne Gacy quality about him."
Bond has dressed up in an variety of costumes from the truly scary to the strange and obscure.
"One year I went as Jason from the Friday the 13th movies," he said. "Then as this girl who wouldn't date me in school. The next year I was a 1988 Lincoln Town Car. And then I went as CNN's Lou Dobbs. Not many people got that last one."
Rejected Halloween costumes:

Jayhawk with visible genitalia. Reason: We really don't want to know where baby Jay came from.
Kansas football player. Reason: More pathetic than scary.
Roy Williams, Reason: Blatant sacrilege; prone to use the word "dadqum" while in costume.
Fully-bathed hippy. Reason: Neither here nor there.

Sebelius best pick for governor
By Brandon Gay beak@kansan.com kansan satis writer
Most students will vote for Democrat Dennis Moore or Republican Adam Taff for Congress.
However, according to the ads, Kathleen Sebelius is no George Washington either. She will strongly consider seceding from the union and joining Mexico. I love Mexican food. No problem there. But ads also showed her being mean to the elderly and kicking dogs. Sebelius thinks abortion should not only be legal, but mandatory for population control.
Moore is a thrice-convicted felon. He is an ax-murderer, a friend of Osama Bin Laden and voted to enforce the death penalty on anyone over the age of 75 in order to fix social security.
College is a time for new experiences and exciting firsts. Most students, for the first time, experience things such as living away from home, doing laundry and waking up in the morning with underwear on their head wondering who they are and, more importantly, who the person next to them is.
However, in between all the fun public displays of undergarments, come some new responsibilities, such as voting. Fortunately, we have campaign advertising to help. Those delightful campaign ads tell us which candidates favor what, which ones are captive to special interests and which ones are blood-sucking neo-Nazis.
Your choices for governor are Democrat Kathleen Sebelius and Republican Tim Shallenburger.
Before voting for Shallenburger, you should check out his opponent's television ads. Not only is he wrong for Kansas, he hates little children. He wants to ban textbooks, and, as a state representative, voted three times to put drugs into schools.
Taff doesn't return his neighbors' tools when he borrows them.
I am voting for Sebelius. I just hate to think of little children being given heroine with their milk.
Moore is getting my vote. I just hate it when people forget to return stuff.
---
You shouldn't believe everything on television. I don't believe U.S. Senate candidate Pat Roberts murdered his entire family in the 1980s and is living under an assumed name. I also heard Sebelius compared driving on I-70 to the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. Where do they get this stuff?
