THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Kansas meets K-State tomorrow Sunflower State Showdown p.1B
Task force makes KU Info report
By Caleb Notwehr

The KU Info task force will submit a recommendation to administrators today to centralize the information service at Anschutz Library with possible satellite locations throughout campus.
For now, the plan suggests keeping the phone line in its current form. Members of the task force are unsure whether these changes will come at the cost of student jobs.
The recommendation includes a plan to expand the current service to include face-to-face communication and Webbased components, Student Body President Jonathan Ng said.
"We're looking at centralizing it more on campus," Ng, a member of the task force said.
Ng said he didn't know if the recommendation would contract the KU Info phone line KU Info or eliminate student jobs.
"Perhaps there may not be a need to have as many people manning phones," Ng said.
The recommendation does suggest that KU Info remain in its current state at the Kansas Union through the spring semester.
The final decision for the fate of KU Info will lie with Senior Vice Provost Kathleen McCluskey-Fawcett, Provost David Shulenburger and the vice presidents for Information Technology.
The decision to change KU Info came
"It doesnt make sense to move KU Info when you can just call from home."

Topeka sophomore
as a result of budget cuts, in order to improve cost efficiency and to consolidate information services.
McCluskey-Fawcett said no formal deadlines had been set, but she wanted to have a decision by the end of the semester. Changes would likely be phased in during the spring and the summer, McCluskey-Fawcett said.
Ng said administrators would discuss the budget issues of the plan as the semester progressed.
The committee also addressed the possibility of putting KU Info under the responsibility of the KU libraries rather than student services, Ng said.
Some students question whether a centralized information center would help the University.
"It doesn't make sense to move KU Info when you can just call from home," said Brian Stucky, Topeka sophomore.
Other students saw the possible change as an enhancement to information accessibility.
Liz Elzi, Denver sophomore, said she would enjoy a face-to-face component of KU Info.
"It would be more personal," Elzi said.

University considers use of wind power
A proposal to use wind energy could cut the cost of utilities at the University of Kansas.
By Lindsey Hodel
lhodel@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
At the end of September, Kansas Wind Power LLC, a private wind energy supplier based in Overland Park, offered power to the University for 43 cents per megawatt per hour—a savings of just under $400,000 per year, Troy Helming, chief executive director of Kansas Wind Power. The University currently pays about $7.9 million each year on utilities, Cindy Strecker, utilities assistant director for Facilities Operations. said.
The wind power would come from a wind farm near El Dorado in Butler
County. The farm generates enough power to supply 100 percent of the University's electricity. Helming said.
"One of the obvious benefits is that wind energy is renewable," Helming said. "Wind power doesn't emit greenhouse gases or pollutants like burning coal does."
The administration is deciding whether the proposal is a feasible option before considering details of the contract, Doug Riat, director of
Helming also said Kansas was one of the best places in the country to produce wind power.
"Kansas is ranked as the state with the most wind power potential," he said, "and we would like to get institutions like KU involved."

Sorority members' cars hit with burglaries

Emily Keating doesn't lock the doors of her 2000 Jeep Wrangler.
She said she would rather a car burglar open her unlocked doors than slash her soft top.
Keating is one of five Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority members whose cars were burglarized or damaged last month while they were parked in the sorority's parking lot at 1 Gower Place, near Tennessee Street.
"If I were to get my windows cut, it would cost more than getting a new CD player." Keating, Manhattan sophomore, said.
Keating's car was hit twice in October. Once someone went through her glove box, didn't take anything and left her Jeep doors open, she said.
Then her car was burglarized again Oct. 23.
The burglar took out her compact disc player halfway and put three holes in her climate control.
On Oct. 24, Laren Bauer, Rogers, Ark., sophomore, found her 1983 Mercedes with a passenger-side window shattered and her CD player torn out of the console.
"They're coming back for the same cars," she said. "They're getting cars lined up against the tree line and ones without alarms."
Total damage to Keating's car and CD player was estimated at $500.
Her car was fingerprinted, she said, but the Lawrence Police Department couldn't find conclusive prints.
Bauer said the recent string of break-ins caused her to be more cautious. She said she thought all of the car burglaries were connected.
CD players were the targets in the thefts, Bauer said.
Sgt. Mike Pattrick of Lawrence police said car burglar typically targeted parking lot areas.
"People who typically do car burglaries go where they'll find more vehicles in a low amount of time." he said.
He said the easiest way to protect cars from break-ins was to hide valuables out of sight from passers-by.
Keating said the sorority had asked Lawrence police to patrol the area more, but if more cars were burglarized, the fraternities and sororites near Tennessee Street might hire a security guard to help monitor their parking lots.
"A lot of time auto burglar will window shop to see if there is anything they'd like to have before they break a window or force entry." Patrick said.

Cigarettes and candles can be the cause of fire if left unattended or not extinguished properly. Private residents may request a free inspection from the Lawrence and Douglas County Fire and Medical to make sure their home is up to Kansas safety standards.
Where there's smoke...
Fire safety differs depending on where students reside
By Louise Stauffer
lstauffer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
As heat replaces air-conditioning and fireplaces replace fans, students need to be conscious of dangers that come with warming living areas in the winter.
Rich Barr, fire marshal for Lawrence and Douglas County Fire and Medical, said students living in on-campus housing had fewer fire hazards than those living in off-campus housing. This is because students living on campus had to comply with state fire-safety standards.
Diana Robertson, associate director of student housing, said some of the state standards included no candles and no open-coil appliances, such as a plug-in burner. She said all student housing was inspected annually by the fire marshal to ensure the buildings complied with the standards. She said it was the responsibility of the hall's staff and maintenance crew to make sure the fire safety guidelines were followed.
For students living off campus, it is their personal responsibility as well as their landlords to make sure their homes
have necessary safeguards such as smoke detectors and fire extinguishers
Barr said the levels of fire safety vary greatly in off-campus housing. Barr said the Lawrence and Douglas County Fire and Medical had the authority and responsibility to inspect multi-family buildings such as an apartment complex, but they do not inspect houses. However, he said anyone could call Lawrence and Douglas County Fire and Medical to request a free inspection to make sure their homes complied with Kansas safety standards.
In living areas that get drafty in cold weather, objects that produce heat, such as space heaters, can be dangerous if not used properly.
Barr said space heaters needed to be treated as open-flame devices.
"You should turn it off if you leave the room for any period of time," he said.
He said users should make sure space heaters are located 36 inches away from anything flammable, such as furniture, clothes, or curtains.
Also, he said to either plug a space heater directly into the wall or into a power strip. He said to always use heavy duty cords, because small cords cannot handle as much current and could start a fire.
At Sunflower House, 1406 Tennessee St., Astrid McMullen-Baker, house manager, said some of the Sunflower House
"The other night we had so many candles lit that it set off the smoke alarm."
Astrid McMullen-Baker Lawrence senior
residents used space heaters. The Lawrence senior said she did not know of any resident who had problems with the heaters.
Candles were another story for the cooperative living establishment.
"The other night we had so many candles lit that it set off the smoke alarm," she said.
Barr said the department had more fires because of candles during the holiday season. He said the main dangers were when people left the lit candles unattended or kicked over the candle holders.
Barr said he had seen many fires that began from improperly disposed cigarettes. He said to make sure cigarettes were disposed in a noncombustible container and to make sure they were completely out.
Barr said halogen lamps, especially floor ones, were other devices that should be treated like open flames, and could cause a fire just as easily.

Baton Rouge police charge sniper suspects
BATON ROUGE, La. — Authorities charged the two sniper suspects with murder yesterday in a Louisiana attack that came just two days after a similar slaying in Alabama.
shying in Alabama John Lee Muhammad, 41, and John Lee Malvo, 17, are now charged with a month-long series of killings stretching from the Gulf Coast to the suburbs around the nation's capital.
Baton Rouge Police Chief Pat Englade issued first-degree murder warrants for Muhammad and Malvo after ballistics tests matched the rifle used in the sniper shootings to the Sept. 23 slaying and robbery of a beauty shop worker in the Louisiana capital.
SEC will investigate chairman Harvey Pitt
WASHINGTON The Securities and Exchange Commission ordered an investigation yesterday into allegations that Chairman Harvey Pitt concealed from commissioners information on the corporate ties of William Webster, his choice to head a new accounting oversight board.
The disclosure once again thrusts Pitt in the middle of a political maelstrom, even as the Bush administration seeks to restore investor and consumer confidence in the roller-coaster markets just days before the midterm elections.
Publicly, the administration strongly backed Pitt.
"Chairman Pitt has done a good job in cracking down on corporate wrongdoing and the SEC has a very strong record under his leadership," said White House spokeswoman Claire Buchan. "We support him."
At the same time, White House spokesman Scott McClellan acknowledge edged, "We don't have all the facts."
Minnesota will mail new absentee ballots
ST, PAUL, Minn. — In a partial victory for the Democrats, Minnesota's
Supreme Court ordered local election officials yesterday to send out new absentee ballots to people who ask to change their Senate vote in the wake of Sen. Paul Wellstone's death.
The ruling fell well short of what the Democrats wanted: throwing out all absentee votes already cast and mailing new ballots to everyone whether they asked for a new one or not.
The decision came after former Vice President Walter Mondale kicked off a lightning five-day campaign against Republican Norm Coleman as the Democrats' last-minute stand-in for Wellstone, who was killed in a plane crash last week while locked in a tight re-election race vital to control of the Senate.

Daycare demolished in Italy's earthquake
SAN GIULIANO DI PUGLIA, Italy —
an earthquake jolted south-central
Italy on yesterday, sending a nursery
school roof crashing down on a class
of preschoolers during a lunchtime
Halloween party.
At least 10 children in the school and two women in nearby homes were killed.
Driven on by faint voices coming from the rubble, frantic rescuers worked into the night to save more than a dozen children who remained trapped after the 5.4 magnitude quake struck the Molise region, shaking the town of Campobasso and surrounding villages northeast of Naples.
Workers guided by flashlights and floodlights carried six dust-covered children and a teacher from the rubble after night fell.
They were sent to nearby hospitals.
So far, 26 children and three teachers have been rescued.
Italian news reports said about 20 children and one adult remained in the rubble 12 hours after the quake struck.

Students set to celebrate Native-American month
By Kate Nelson
knelson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The First Nations Student Association wants people to know there is more about being Native American than powwows and feathers.
The association is kicking off the national Native American Heritage Month Monday with a poetry reading. It's the first in a series of activities planned to help educate the KU community about its small but growing Native-American population.
Native-American students make up only 1.1 percent of the University's nearly 29,000 students, but the numbers have grown according to the University registrar self-reported numbers. In the fall of 2001, 257 Native-American students reported attending the University compared to this semester's 312 students.
"KU isn't known a lot for having Native-American students, so this will give non-natives a chance to see their culture and our issues," said Steve Byington, Lawrence junior and association member.
KU did garner notice in the Winds of Change magazine's newest annual college guide because of its global focus on indigenous people. Winds of Change focuses on career and educational advancement for Native Americans.
Byington said events such as the "Noble Savages? - The Controversy over Indian Mascots" lecture are especially pertinent for students, considering the proximity of the Kansas City Chiefs football team. The Office of Multicultural Affairs will present the lecture on Thursday, Nov. 7 at the Kansas room in the Kansas Union.

Former CEO:succeed by leading
By George Schulz
gschulz@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
America and Kansas have come a long way since segregation, said Delano Lewis, former CEO of National Public Radio and former U.S. Ambassador to South Africa.
Lewis spoke to a group of about 500 African-American high school students from throughout Kansas yesterday at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
Lewis' keynote speech was part of the 17th Annual Black Leadership Symposium this year entitled "Preparing African-American Youth for Global Leadership" sponsored by the University. The symposium included panels, workshops and an information fair about education
C. W. ROBERTS
Lewis said that while growing up in Kansas City, Kan., segregation prevented
Lewis
him from going to movie theaters and public pools designated for whites. He didn't attend school with whites until his senior year of high school. He said the famous Supreme Court case Brown v. Board of Education was Kansas' claim in the history of the integration movement in the United States. He said watching the Civil Rights Bill pass through Congress while working for the Department of Justice in 1963
prompted him to make a difference in race issues. Lewis said that for him, improving racial conditions meant more minorities adopting leadership roles.
Lewis told the students that success in leadership was up to them.
"It all begins with you." he said.
"You can have all of the best advice in the world, but if you aren't listening then it isn't happening."
Lewis added that moral values were key to success. He strongly criticized corporate executives involved in recent legal scandals "who are raking us over the coals."
"They have no moral fabric," he said.
He added that students had to learn the difference between right and wrong.
Lewis graduated from KU in
1960 with degrees in political science and history. He received as law degree from Washburn University in 1963.
Mark Dupree, Kansas City, Kan., junior and president of the Black Student Union, said he was pleased Lewis spoke to young people with a casual speaking style.
"It shows if he can come from Kansas in the 1950s and make it to the White House and be ambassador to South Africa, anyone can do it," he said.
Clarence Miller III, Kansas City, Kan., junior, agreed the road to success may be a struggle, but Lewis showed it can be done.
"It was very inspiring," he said. "I could relate because we're from the same part of town."
Law students face off in legal relays

Rather than pass batons or torches, University of Kansas law school students will be handing over citations and pens to their teammates at today's Blue Book Relays.
The KU law library will host today's relays, which begin at 12:30 p.m. and end at 1:50 p.m., said Jeff Montgomery, serials manager at the library. He said seven teams, each composed of 10 first-year law students, would compete in the 15-year-old event that tests many facets of students' legal-writing skills.
— citing cases, statutes and legal periodicals," Montgomery said.
"It reflects how well they've learned how to cite basic things
He said each group member had to answer one question written by the law library and properly cite its source. Then, the member would submit the citation to the group's leader who would review it for accuracy before submitting it for final review by an attorney, Montgomery said.
teams have an additional incentive to work quickly at the relays — the first team that turns in all of its citations will earn bonus points, Montgomery said.
Robert Mead, law school librarian, said the Lawrence-based Barber, Emerson, Springer, Zinn, and Murray, L.C. law firm sponsored the event and gave
prize money to the competition's top three teams.
"Students do anything with it from buying pizza and beer to donating it to canned-food drives," he said. "Mostly, it goes to beer."
Michael Davis, professor of law, said citation-writing skills were essential for demonstrating statements and implications of law.
Though he said citation writing could be challenging for first-year law students,he said the relays were a fun way for students to demonstrate their skills.
Will Wohlford, Wichita second- year law student, participated in
"We try to first underscore its importance but also to bring a little fun to a part of learning that inherently isn't much fun at all," he said.
"But people didn't take it so seriously that they didn't want to have fun together."

It's hard not to get overwhelmed and worried in a world saturated with violence - Yet the American tradition of "Day of the Dead" engages communities and families in a celebration of the cycle of life's death.

'KANSAN' REPORT CARD
Pass:
Getting plenty of wear out of a costume. Thanks to Halloween falling on a Thursday this year, students can enjoy three (and, in some cases, four) whole days of candy and parties.
Birdburgers. Considering all of its health benefits, eating emu meat sounds like a great idea. Plus, we are really amused by the image of cowboys rounding up a majestic herd of giant birds.
Respecting our elders. It's great to see Beta Theta Pi fraternity taking an interest in the elderly. College students often forget there are seniors who aren't graduating in May. Keep it up guys.
Fail:
Trashing on students. When even the Lawrence environmental inspector says city residents are unfairly criticizing the state of students' homes, you know something needs to be done. Maybe we need an ordinance against crabby neighbors.
Caving to complainers. Granted, overparking made Edgehill Road dangerous, but the city should have limited parking because of that. Not because one man didn't want students to park in front of his house.
Halloween weather. For those of us who didn't go as eskimos or penguins, the cold ( and occasional snow) were not welcome.

COMMENTARY
Everything seems a little cleaner, fresher and more exciting to me as the first brisk winds rustle across campus. So far, this fall has not disappointed me, except for one small dark cloud, literally. Well, several large dark clouds to be exact.
Sara Zafar
opinion@kansan.com
The sun has not shown itself in over a week. This is a problem. Around campus, there has been a noticeable sentiment of gloom and overall dullness.
While this is somewhat appropriate for the Halloween spirit, it is beginning to take a toll on everyone who spends any time outside at all.
Most of the time I enjoy the occasional good, brooding, cloudy day to give me perspective, but enough is enough.
In my classes this past week, I have noticed attendance dropping significantly. I choose to blame this solely on the fact that it has been dark and cloudy for a very long time.
They are less interested in going about their daily routines and, definitely, less interested in being good students. As enticing as sitting in classrooms of varying climates may seem, the pull is just not strong enough to keep students interested.
Also, more and more people are getting sick.
The lack of bright sunshine is detrimental to the health and happiness of students and teachers alike.
Lectures that are normally interesting and entertaining are more dragging and dull.
Teachers find it difficult to muster the enthusiasm required to effectively teach the students, who are finding it difficult to act as interested as usual.
Clock watching is rampant. Listless sighs fill the silences in dark classrooms.
The gray clouds and incessant rain were enough to keep anyone permanently in pajamas, in front of the television.
Other people expressed a desire to get away somewhere, anywhere where there was sun.
Countless studies show the effects of sunlight deprivation on everyday functioning.
However, I don't need a study to prove to me that this endless darkness is weighing down the spring in my step.
Even my motivation to get up in the morning has been pushed aside by the gloom I've seen from my window every morning. Everything seems less important when provided the option of staying inside with the lights on and not thinking about anything.
Thankfully, these classical signs of depression are not permanent for the vast majority of people.
As soon as the sun returns to us, bright and shiny, most of us will go back to our daily routines with more enthusiasm than has been seen on this campus in some time.
I, for one, can't wait until I see the blue sky through the trees again, the way the sun brightens everything, and everyone's moods.
We just have to wait. These dark times can't last forever.
Until then, I make my plea to the sun gods/goddesses or what have you. If we don't see some sunshine around here soon, we will be forced to change the words of our alma mater to "Far above the cold, wet valley/dark and foggy to view/ stands our noble Alma Mater/towering t'ward the ...um, gray?"

College students don't have responsibility to be anti-war
Oracle on Wescoe Beach to protest a possible war on Iraq. It's just fine by me if someone wants to protest a potential war on Iraq. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. But don't assume that these views are representative of everyone on campus.
In the Oct. 24 issue of The University Daily Kansan, Amanda Flott, co-director of Concerned Active and Aware Students and organizer of the protest, was quoted as saying, "KU needs to join other universities whose voices are being heard. It's important that our campus be involved in the national movement."
She is referring to the trendy anti-war movement that is currently sweeping college campuses across the nation.
It sounds to me like she wants the University to be portrayed as an anti-war school in the national movement. But those of us who believe the ousting of Saddam Hussein is in our nation's best interest do not want Amanda Flott and the other protesters representing our school as a whole.
GUEST COMMENTARY
I'll admit it. I believe in President Bush's policy regarding Iraq. And no, despite what the protesters say, it doesn't make me ignorant, it doesn't make me brainwashed, and it certainly doesn't make me wrong.
I am just as informed of the situation as the they are, but I have come to a different conclusion.
Nathan Clark opinion@hansan.com
One of the protesters that day was Sean
Ringey, a junior from Clearwater who said that he believed the goals of the U.S. were geared more toward getting cheap oil than preventing terrorism.
His claim is partially correct. Oil does play a part in the potential war. Saddam wouldn't be as big a concern to us if he didn't have so much oil.
There is nothing wrong with being
proud of our country for simultaneously protecting its interests while promoting universal ideals and protecting the welfare of other peoples, including the Iraqis.
The college-based anti-war movement hit full steam last weekend when massive protests were held in Washington, D.C. and San Francisco.
Over 140,000 people showed up to make their voices heard, including some KU students. These were highly publicized events that made headlines across the nation.
But there was a smaller group of counter-protesters there who didn't get the same attention. A few hundred war-supporters gathered across from the throng of protesters to voice their support for President Bush.
According the The Washington Post, one who joined the counter-protesters was Imam Husham Al-Husainy.
Many of them were exiles from Iraq who were actually chanting slogans against Saddam.
"Most of these people across the street, they don't know the reality in Iraq," Al-Husainy told the Post.
It's important to understand that the anti-war protesters, with their catchy chants, vague accusations and organized rallies, don't actually represent everybody in America or at this University.
The less protest-happy Bush supporters across the nation and on the KU campus should let their voices be heard too.

Carr brothers' murder trial goes to deliberation
The Associated Press
WICHITA — After emotional closing arguments from prosecutors, jurors began deliberations late last night in the trial of two brothers accused of a nine-day crime spree that left five people dead.
One juror was in tears during District Attorney Nola Foulston's fiery oration that included a computer presentation of graphic pictures of four victims lying in the snow-covered soccer field were they died.
"You have four people frozen in time — bullets that thrashed through their brains that drew the life out of them, that froze their hearts on that field of snow. They died by criminal means and they died together at the hands of two brothers, Jonathan and Reginald Carr," Foulston told jurors in her closing arguments.
Jurors deliberated for about 90 minutes before ending for the night.
Family members of the victims filled the courtroom, most looking away from the screen whenever Foulston signaled them that a bloody photograph was coming.
The crime spree that ended with the shootings of five friends
in a remote soccer field two years ago was driven by greed and lust, Deputy District Attorney Kim Parker told jurors.
"The crimes ended because of one girl who had the resolve to survive to tell the story. ... The crimes ended because of responsible citizens — people in this community — that were alert and responsible," Parker said during closing arguments in the murder trial of Reginald and Jonathan Carr.
The survivor of the quadruple killing sat quietly in the front row throughout the arguments, averting her eyes whenever photographs of her dead friends were projected onto the screen.
The Carr brothers are charged with numerous crimes. The most notorious involves the events of Dec. 14-15 2000, when two armed intruders entered a Wichita home. The two women and three men inside were forced to engage in sexual acts with each other and to withdraw money from ATMs.
The women were repeatedly raped before the five friends were taken to the soccer field and shot.
Aaron Sander, 29; Brud Heyka, 27; Jason Befort, 26; and Heather Muller, 25, died. Befort's girl
friend, then a 25-year-old teacher, survived and ran a mile to find help.
She identified the Carr brothers as her attackers.
"This is a case about living out your worst nightmare," Parker said.
Jurors are deliberating over 47 counts filed against each brother, including four counts of capital murder for the quadruple killings and first-degree murder for a separate homicide days earlier.
All the counts are identical, with an additional three weapons charges filed against Reginald Carr because he is a convicted felon.
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.
Parker told jurors the two armed intruders separated the friends during their ordeal and they feared that if they attacked one intruder their friend would be harmed.
"They acted for one another and it did no good," she said.
A total of 97 witnesses testified,
including five for Reginald Carr. More than 850 pieces of evidence were admitted.
Parker told jurors that they can view the crimes only from a distance. They cannot hear the sound of the car window shattering in Walenta's car when she was shot or the blasting horn she pushed down to call for help, she said.
Nor can they hear the cries of the friends as the huddled in the closet or of Aaron Sander screaming as he realized Muller had been shot beside him as they knelt in the snow, she said.
She also took to the jury box the diamond engagement ring that Befort had planned to give his girlfriend for Christmas and that police found in his coat jacket.
John Val Wachtel, attorney for Reginald Carr, told jurors that the crime scene contained a lot of DNA evidence, which he said belonged to Jonathan Carr.
Val Wachtel also focused on discrepancies in the description of Reginald Carr from the survivor of the quadruple killings. He noted that the woman could not identify him as the second attacker during a preliminary hearing and did so only during this trial.
"You have to ask yourselves why given this good common sense, why this information about Reginald Carr suddenly appears — it is critical information." Val Wachtel said.
Mark Manna, attorney for Jonathan Carr, said no evidence connected his client to Walenta's shooting or to Schreiber's robbery.
Neither Schreiber nor Walenta before her death was able to identify Jonathan Carr as one of the two men who attacked them — but both of them identified Reginald Carr, Manna said.
He told jurors that one gun and one shooter were tied to all the crimes and that the gun belonged to Reginald Carr. He also said Reginald Carr had most of the property stolen from the victims of the quadruple killings.
"Reginald Carr was not alone, but the evidence will show who was playing the lead role that night — directing things, taking things." Manna said.
Manna said Jonathan Carr is innocent of some of the charges.
"Don't just go back there and check the box guilty on all counts," he said. "Please consider his guilt and innocence separate from damning evidence against his brother, Reginald."
Wife of John Robinson testifies in murder trial
The Associated Press
OLATHE — After all his affairs, previous prison sentences and two convictions for capital murder. Nancy Robinson is still standing by her man.
She testified yesterday, pleading with jurors to sentence John Robinson to life in prison instead of death for the murders of two women whose bodies were found in barrels on his property.
John Robinson has been a devoted father and grandfather for 38 years, his wife testified, though the trial and convictions were nearly more than the family could stand.
"It's devastating. Absolutely devastating." she told jurors.
John Robinson, 58, of Olathe, was convicted Tuesday of capital murder in the slayings of Suzette Trouten, 27, of Newport, Mich., and Izabela Lewicka, 21, a former Purdue University student from West Lafayette, Ind.
Their bodies were discovered on June 3,2000, inside 85-gallon barrels on Robinson's rural property in Linn County.
He also was convicted of first-degree murder in the death of Lisa
Stasi, 19, whose body has never been found.
Defense attorneys said they would present only a handful of witnesses, but none who will speak to John Robinson's mental health. Two witnesses yesterday afternoon testified that he would not be a risk to cause violence while in prison, based on his age and good conduct during five years in Kansas and Missouri prisons from 1987 to 1992.
Sean O'Brien, lead attorney for the defense, asked Judge John Anderson III to grant a continuance so that the defense would have more time to delve into John Robinson's psychological history.
"We're just not prepared to present that kind of evidence," O'Brien said.
Robinson was on suicide watch inail for most of his trial.
Anderson denied the motions, reiterating previous rulings that any delays or lack of preparation were related to the defendant's desire to change attorneys midway through the two-year case.
Jurors were expected to begin deliberating the penalty phase by the weekend.
mony, Nancy Robinson said the couple's grandchildren were a major part of her husband's life.
She said her husband's arrest was particularly tough on an 8-year-old granddaughter, who spent extended hours each week at their Olathe home. Nancy Robinson and the girl's mother arranged a brief meeting between the girl and her grandfather at the Johnson County jail in Olathe.
During her emotional testi-
Nancy Robinson said the girl ran to her grandfather, grabbed him, hugged him and said "Papa, orange is not your color."
With that, John Robinson cried and wined tears from his face.
Robinson still faces trial in Missouri on charges of killing two women and a girl whose bodies were found in barrels in a storage locker in the Kansas City suburb of Raymore, Mo.
Under Kansas law, capital murder trials are divided into two phases. After a conviction, prosecutors present evidence why the aggravating circumstances of the crimes merit death, while defense attorneys argue that mitigating circumstances justify a sentence of life in prison without parole for 50 years.
Shallenburger seeks vital votes
The Associated Press
TOPEKA—Republican Tim Shallenburger acknowledges that as of early September, he trailed Democrat Kathleen Sebelius in the governor's race by as much as 25 percentage points.
He has been closing that gap. Activists in both parties expect the result to be much closer in Tuesday's general election.
"We've had nights we were have been real close, clearly, several that were statistically even, but never a night when we've been ahead," Shallen-burger said.
Shallenburger has remained the underdog despite being the GOP nominee in a state with a strong Republican heritage, and his pledge not to increase taxes.
Promises to not raise taxes normally resonate with voters, but Shallenburger said it has been a hard sell this year. Shallenburger said crime remains an important issue as the campaign ends, saying believes Sebellus' votes on crime issues as a legislator were dangerous.
He also said she's misled voters by suggesting he would decrease aid to public schools.
"I believe that she is saying what people want to hear," he said, "Knowing that she can't deliver."
But, Shallenburger said, not enough voters see Sebelius as he does.
Though Shallenburger raised $2 million for his campaigns, Sebelius raised $4 million. She spent $2.5 million on television advertisements.
"She's pounded this message so long that people believe it," he said.
Shallenburger said his campaign is sticking with its strategy. Volunteers will work to turn out the Republican base, which he described as anti-tax groups.
The last media poll, from The Kansas City Star, had the difference at 9 percentage points Sebelius 46 percent; Shallenburger, 37 percent - with a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points.

One possible disadvantage of consolidation was that reducing monthly payments and increasing the number of years in a repayment plan could increase the amount one has to pay, Covington said.

Kansan staff writer
Most graduates choose to consolidate with them, because that's where their loans are from, she said.
Students who have federal loans and plan to graduate in December might want to start considering options for loan consolidation.
Loan consolidation combines several loans into one bigger loan from a single lender, which is then used to pay off the balances on the other loans.
Recent graduates who consolidate during their grace periods — the six-month window graduates are given before they have to start repaying their loans — could lock in interest rates as low as 3.5 percent, according to Sandra Block, "Your Money" columnist for USA Today.
ate director of the Office of Student Financial Aid, said most KU students' federal loans were from the lender, Direct Loans.
Consolidation loans are available for most federal loans, including Stafford, PLUS, Perkins and Direct loans.
If all of a student's loans are from Direct Loan, the student must consolidate with that lender; however, if students have loans with more than one lender, they can consolidate with any lender.
Consolidation loans often reduce the size of the total monthly payment by extending
the term of the loan beyond the 10-year repayment plan that is standard with federal loans, according to www.finaid.com.
Michael Blue, Lawrence senior, said he would consolidate his $7,000 or $8,000 in loans. Blue said he intends to consolidate, but has not begun the application process.
Fred Pereira, senior loan consultant at College Loan Corporation, said students could choose from repayment plans that last anywhere from 10 years to 30 years.
He said one disadvantage of not consolidating loans was that students would be subject to a variable interest rate, instead of locking in the current low rates.
Stephanie Covington Student Financial Aid associate director
On July 1, the interest rate on federal student loans dropped to a 40-year low with 95 percent of students paying interest rates ranging from 4.125 percent to 4.875 percent, he said. The new rates will remain in effect until July 1, he said.

Facilities Operations, said. The University currently receives its coal-generated power from Westar Energy in Wichita.
"Westar provides two main lines for electrical service to the main campus and we would look at those two services first for an alternate energy source," he said. "As long as they offer a cheaper rate, we would have interest in the project."
But Riat said some problems stand in the way of KU switching to wind power.
Because Kansas Wind Power is not recognized as a retail utilities provider by the Kansas Corporation Commission, the company would have to use another company's transmission system to transport the electricity from the wind farm to campus, he said.
Kansas Wind Power has not spoken to Westar about the possibility yet, Helming said.
Some students would like to see KU's campus use an alternative energy source. Trisha Shrum, student senator and Olathe sophomore, is trying to make the conversion to wind energy a reality. Shrum is preparing a resolution to propose to Student Senate in their next cycle.
"The decision lies with the administration, but I would like them to see the representatives of the student body support

Large institutions are especially important in the movement toward renewable energy. Shrum said.
"Since we use so much energy, we have more choice in where we get it from," she said. "I would like KU to be part of the progressive movement toward renewable energy."

Ryder's attorney berates witness
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. — Winona Ryder's attorney attacked the testimony of a witness in Ryder's shoplifting trial yesterday, accusing the former store security guard of profiting from the case and making up stories.
Witness Colleen Rainey denied the claims by attorney Mark Geragos.
Ryder, 51, is charged with felony grand theft, burglary and vandalism for allegedly stealing more than $5,500 worth of merchandise from the Beverly Hills Saks Fifth Avenue on Dec. 12, 2001. She faces up to three years in prison if convicted.

State rivals must break monotony
The Sunflower State showdown used to be a bitter rivalry.
The games football or basketball used to matter, the outcomes were in doubt, and fans were passionate about the events on the field.
The Sunflower State showdown now is nothing more than a beer-drinking revelry.
The games — football and basketball — don't matter, not to Kansas when it comes to the pigskin or Kansas State when the round ball starts rolling, the outcomes are never in doubt, and fans are more passionate about the events taking place in the parking lot.
"As far as it being a rivalry, it should be a rivalry," said Kansas football coach Mark Mangino this week before Saturday's big game. "But we haven't kept up our end of the deal on this rivalry."
Neither has Kansas State.
A rivalry requires competition. When's the last time these schools really competed in either college's big-time sports?
FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2002
Not last year. The Wildcats whipped the Jayhawks 40-6 at KSU Stadium in football. Kansas returned the favor in basketball with a 103-68 beating at Allen Fieldhouse.
How about three years ago? Nope, same story, different storytellers. The Wildcats won 50-9 in football in Manhattan and Kansas kicked Kansas State 87-79 in basketball in Lawrence.
Six years? No. Eight? Huh-uh.
One has to go back nearly a decade to find the last time either school upset the other in the sport that it dominates.
The Wildcat hoopsters knocked off the Jayhawks 68-64 in 1994 in Lawrence. Kansas State has proceeded to lose the next 22 meetings. What's more, the Wildcats have never defeated the Jayhawks in their own gym at Bramplige Coliseum.
On Oct. 10 in 1992, the Jayhawks triumphed 31-7 in football. But it's been downhill, a face-first roll to the bottom of Mount Oread, for the team ever since. Kansas State won the last nine games by a combined score of 354-91.
But this pair of 1-70 siblings used to scrap.
There were intense battles where Jayhawk fans or Wildecat faithful at least knew their teams stood a chance.
During one three-year stretch in the late 1980s the two schools split in basketball twice before each won two straight games. Before that, there were cycles when Kansas State would win five in a row before Kansas responded with 10 straight.
The two met in an epic NCAA tournev's Midwest Regional final in 1988.
There have been some frenzied football games as well.
From 1978 to 1987 the two swapped victories every year until a 17-all tie in 1987.
Kansas won four of the next five games before the Wildcats made the jayhawks their whipping boy.
The thing is this. One-sided success sucks.
If you're a Kansas fan, why would you want to freeze and watch your team get slaughtered? And if you're watching basketball in Manhattan this season, lets hope it's the women's team.
"I am sure the young guys from Kansas feel a little something extra," Kansas State football coach Bill Snyder said of his in-state players heading into the big weekend.
Yeah, that it's not quite basketball season.

Jayhawks to play season's 10th game against Kansas State
By John Domoney

Kansan sportswriter
The number 10 is wildly connected to tomorrow's 100th renewal of the Sunflower State showdown between Kansas and Kansas State, beginning at 1 p.m. at Memorial Stadium.
K-State is looking for its 10th straight victory over the layhawks.
This is the 10th game of the season for the Kansas football team, which stands 2-7 overall and 0-5 in the Big 12 Conference.
The last time Kansas defeated K-State was 10 years ago,31-7 in Lawrence.
After becoming 2-3 for the season, the Jayhawks have lost four games in a row including Saturday's 36-12 defeat at the hands of the Missouri.
This is the second straight season that Kansas got off to a 2-7 start, and it is the first time since 1998 that the Jayhawks have been 0-5 in the Big 12.
"We haven't kept up our end of the deal on this rivalry."
Mark Mangino
Kansas football coach
Kansas coach Mark Mangino was not a part of those previous Jayhawk teams, but he is no stranger to the rivalry after serving on the Wildcat coaching staff from 1991 to 1998.
Mangino said Kansas had to make the games more competitive to intensify the rivalry.
"We haven't kept up our end of the deal on this rivalry," he said. "We've suffered several defeats, and we just haven't been able to get our constituents as excited about this games as our opponents have."
The game has lost some of its luster over the past decade because the Wildcats have dominated the series.
Since the Jayhawks last defeated the Wildcats, K-State has beaten Kansas by an average of 29.2 points per game.
The Jayhawks set a team record in that game, holding the Wildcats to -56 rushing yards.
The wide margin of victory by Kansas State has Mangino stressing the importance of narrowing the gap between the two programs.
"It's just one of those things where we've got to play better in this game," Mangino said. "We've got to play with enthusiasm in this game, and we've got to make it a ball game."
A big part of Kansas' ability to stay close with the Wildcats may hinge on the play of senior quarterback Jonas Weatherbie, whose uniform number is, surprise, 10. Weatherbie will start in place of injured junior quarterback Bill Whittimore.
Weatherbie does not bring much experience, playing in only seven games during his career and completing 3-of-10 passes for 26 yards.
Weatherbie said he knew he must be effective against the Kansas State defense, which allows 267.6 yards per game and 13.4 points per game.Both

Nash hits the court after big summer

Kansan sportswriter
DALLAS — If expectations were Halloween candy, Bryant Nash would have a mouthful of cavities.
After all the talk surrounding his offseason improvements, the Kansas junior could feast on all the preseason praise. Nash's teammates did not hesitate to name him the most improved player yesterday at the Big 12 Conference Media Day.
"Ive think a lot of guys improved, but the one I've seen the most improvement in is Bryant Nash." Hinrich said. "He played on the Big 12 all star team over the summer, and I think that really helped him. He's showing a better sense of knowing how to play in our system."
Seniors Nick Collison and Kirk Hinrich both campaigned for Nash, calling him their early favorite for the summer's hardest-working Jayhawk.
Nash played six summer games in Scandinavia. He averaged 4 points and two rebounds for the undefeated team. Williams said Nash had the potential to wow Kansas fans.
"He hasn't been nearly as consistent as I would like him to be," Williams said. "He will get to the offensive board and have a tremendous slam-dunk follow and you'll say 'wow' and then the next two times he doesn't get to the board and he'll turn it over."
But Nash returns after what some think was an unproductive sophomore campaign. He scored a career-high 8 points early in the season against Pittsburg State but ended the year averaging 1 point and 3.9 minutes per game. Kansas coach Roy Williams said consistency was Nash's downfall.
"He's got to get to the boards and help us out. When he does that he's pretty spectacular because he gets way up in the air," Williams said.
With the loss of two main scorers from a year ago and a shallow depth chart, the starting five need players like Nash to have breakout seasons.
"Bryant has just got to understand the simple things — don't turn it over, don't foul, don't hurt us and you can help us by not hurting us," Williams said. "If he can get that part of it down he can be good."

PETER HAYNES
Throughout the last ten years K-State's and KU's fortunes have went their separate ways. In fact the 'Cats have safely controlled every Governor's Cup game since
1993. In the last decade of dominance K State has outscored KU 354-91.
Here are some of the highlights.
There hasn't been many hotly contested games as of late. But the last couple of years have been enjoyable to watch, with the Jayhawk program self-destructing.
Who can forget hapless Zac Wegner? On the second possession of the 1998 game, he was knocked out for the season by a lethal hit served up simultaneously by former lynch mob members Jeff Kelly and Travis Litton.
The lynch mob found yet another Jayhawk signal-caller in their last trip to Lawrence in 2000 as well. On his first possession, quarterback Dylan Smith was strung up by former Wildcat defensive end Chris Johnson forcing Smith to fumble and knocking KU's starting signal-caller out of the game for two series.
The list of pathetic quarterbacks to don the crimson and blue and come away empty against the "Cats over the last decade is long and lengthy. The likes of Jay Alexander, Matt Johner and Mario Kinsey join Wenger and Smith as those who were destroyed by K-State while at the helm of the Jayhawk ship.
Ah, and who can forget Chalupagate. A few weeks before the end of the 1999 season, KU's senior defensive end, Dion Rayford, pulled into the drive-thru of a Taco Bell in Lawrence wanting some food. After ordering, Rayford then attempted to jump through the drive-thru window and got stuck doing so, looking for some free tasty treats.
The stunned and scared employees then called the police and Rayford was arrested.
I heard that he was angry that an employee accused him of playing football for KU.
Arrests dealing with cheap chow don't just end there for the "Flaw on the Kaw." Former starting pot-head, I mean quarterback, Mario Kinsey, along with tail back Reggie Duncan stole a purse from a KU coed. Then Kinsey and Duncan attempted to order a pizza with the poor girl's credit card and were surprised to get arrested for the crime.
The coaches have not done much better at looking intelligent. Take for example Terry Allen, former KU head coach and town crier. Allen in 2000 proclaimed that he believed that KU had closed the talent gap with the 'Cats.
Later that week, a Jonathan Beasley led K-State squad, slaughtered the Jayhawks 52-13.
Current coach, Mark Mangino, tries to compare himself and his situation to Bill Snyder's when he first arrived in Manhattan. But Mangino picked up some "Sooner Swagger" and lost some class when he took the offensive coordinators job at Oklahoma.
Also, Mangino hasn't learned from his predecessor mistakes. Tuesday Mangino said, "History shows that they always play much, much better in Manhattan than they usually play on the road."

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Nov. 1).
You're even smarter than usual this year, and especially cute, too. You'll have plenty of friends who want to help with whatever you have in mind. Don't rely on them too heavily, though. That could turn out to be too expensive.
Aries (March 21-April 19) Today is a 5. You can get through the tough parts of today by planning out tomorrow's fun. If you don't have a date, ask friends to set you up. It'll work out well.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) Today is an 8. Don't make any major decisions now. Too many things are changing. Go with the flow or just stay out of the way until things settle down around Monday.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) Today is a 6.
Proceed with caution in a changing environment. Don't assume things will go as they always have; the odds are against it. And watch out for somebody who isn't playing by the rules.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) Today is an 8. You're pretty good at getting around regulations. You're also good at obeying them when there's no alternative. The latter is most likely the case now, so don't waste a lot of time arguing.
P
Leo (July 23-Aug.22) Today is a 5.
A long conversation leads to surprises and helps you both understand what changes need to be made. If you knew something was wrong but didn't know what, now is the time to find out.
蟹
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Today is a 5.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Today is a 7.
You're stirring things up, but are you also making a mess? Throw out the stuff that's slowing you down but not the rules and regulations. The structure makes you strong.
2
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Today is a 5.
No point making your choice now.
Things are in a state of flux. Might as well wait until tomorrow. If you're on the move then, you won't have time to be indecisive.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Today is an 8.
If you keep your cool while those around you are losing theirs, (a) you don't fully understand the situation, (b) you're better prepared, or (c) you're a Scorpio.
Lion
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Today is a 5.
You've never had much patience for sleazy deals or unnecessary paperwork.
You might think twice before mentioning that now. There will be a better time.
LA SOLIDARITÀ
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Today is an 8. You're confident and well loved, but move cautiously anyway. There could be surprises or booby traps along a familiar trail. And don't goof around with your friends during working hours, either.
Scorpion
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Today is a 5.
If there's simply not enough money to do what you have in mind, you have a decision to make. Should you pitch a fit or go have a latte? The latter, with creative friends, of course.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Today is an 8. Pay attention. Your input may be needed at a moment's notice. The others may be getting too analytical. They'll need your holistic point of view.
Swim team faces Mizzou

When Kansas and Missouri compete in any sport, the competition is always intense, and swimming and diving is no exception to the border war.
With Missouri leading the border war 4.5 points to zero, the KU swimmers and divers hope to give KU its first points today when the two schools dual at 6:00 p.m. in Columbia, Mo.
"I think this is always fun when KU gets the opportunity to compete in anything, regardless of the sport, with Missouri," coach Clark Campbell said. "This particular meet will be about competing and executing. We will have to swim in tough conditions, against a team that will be fired up and we are on the road."
Winning this dual will be easier said than done. Missouri is ranked number 21, in the College Swim Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) Division I top 25 poll. Kansas also received votes, but not enough to get in the top 25.
"We were honored to receive votes because they are based on our early races," Campbell said. "People around the country are noticing that KU is back on track, and we were humbled and flattered to receive votes."
Campbell pointed out that because Missouri is rated in the top 25, if KU can win the dual, there is a chance they can earn a top 25 rating themselves.
"Missouri is 21st in voting in the top 25. They are
Missouri also has a 15-dual winning streak, dating back to February 3, 2001, including 5-0 this season. At the Big 12 Relays on Oct. 11, the Jayhawks finished fourth with 60 points, and Missouri finished third with 68 points.
very good dual meet team, with no weaknesses. Solid people in every single event." he said.
Campbell said the team was a little on edge not only because of their opponent, but also because it is the first regular season race.
"We got tough competition around the corner, but we are coming off three weeks of excellent training, and are excited about showing off our new skills." Campbell said. "My hope is to rewrite our best time list for the season."
Sophomore Amy Gruber has been the Jayhawks' shining star up to this point. She has four individual top times for Kansas this season — 50 freestyle, 100 freestyle, 500 freestyle and the 100 butterfly. She also is a member of four relay teams that hold the best times this year.
"Amy is just a wonderful athlete and a great competitor. She works really hard. When you have those types of attributes going for you, you're going to have much success in the sport of swimming," Campbell said. "She can help us in any race we put her in."
After facing Missouri the next race will be at Robinson Natatorium versus Southwest Missouri State and Wyoming on Nov. 9, at 1 p.m.

Each year when the two football teams compete the school's rowing teams have their own Sunflower Showdown.
"The biggest dual races are with Texas and KSU," Coach Rob Catlloth said. "So anytime we race either of them it is important."
"Sprints are head-on-head. It's first to cross the finish line wins," he said. "It's easier for the athletes
At Kansas' last race, the Head of the Iowa, on Oct. 27, KSU finished.16 seconds in front of Kansas in the Varsity-8 race. Catloth said this race would be different mainly because it is a sprint race in which only two boats race at a time, as opposed to in Iowa.

Catloth said that this style of racing, sprint style was the format the team competes in during the spring. He said this weekend's races would be a good way for the freshman to get used to this kind of competitive racing.
After this race, the team has five months before the regular season starts. Winter training begins Jan. 3 and goes through Jan. 13. Until winter training begins the girls will be lifting weights, running, running stairs and working on the indoor rowing machines. After winter training ends, there is no official training until March 15, when spring training begins, with the first race on March 28 at Texas.
Saturday's race begins at 9:45 a.m., with the last race, the Varsity-8 boats, at 10:45 a.m., at Burcham Park, Second and Indiana streets.

Man faces arraignment for baseball beatings
CHICAGO—The man charged in the televised beating of Kansas City Royals coach Tom Gamboa during a baseball game at Comiskey Park has apologized, a newspaper reported Friday.
"I regret what happened. If I was in my right state of mind, this would never have occurred. I am so sorry for Mr. Gamboa. I disgraced Chicago and myself. I apologize with my heart," William Ligue Jr., 35, told the Daily Southtown after calling from the Cook County Jail.
The Alsip, III., man had been jailed since he and his son were arrested on Sept. 19 after Gamboa was attacked on the field mid-game.
A Cook County grand jury indicted Ligue on Oct. 11 on three counts of aggravated battery and one count of mob action. He is being held on $200,000 bond and is scheduled to be in court today for an arraignment.
His 15-year-old son pleaded guilty in juvenile court to one charge of aggravated battery and two counts of mob action for striking Gamboa and an off-duty state trooper, who was working security at the game. The teen is scheduled to be sentenced Nov. 7.
Ligue said he doesn't remember hitting Gamboa or any of the other details of the incident.
In the interview, Ligue said he wanted addiction treatment.
"I was going through so much stress," Ligue said. "I see on the video tape I was out of my mind. I had to let anger out and it came out that way."
"I have a terrible drug problem I cannot control," he said. "I need help."
Ligue called the incident, "God's way to straighten me out by putting me here."

Team faces tough record
Team tries to extend two-game streak in Big 12 conference
By Jason Hwang

Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas volleyball team, coming off a 3-0 sweep at Iowa State Wednesday, will bring its twomatch winning streak to play the No.24 Texas Longhorns tomorrow at 7 p.m. in the Horejsi Family Athletics Center. This season, Kansas is 1-3 against ranked opponents.
"Every win from now on is an important one," sophomore middle blocker Ashley Michaels said. "Of course, it's going to be a harder game against Texas, but we
have to go into each game with the same mind set."

came last year on Senior Night in Lawrence when the Jayhawks won 3-1 in Lawrence.
This season in their last meeting on Oct. 5 in Austin, Tex., the Longhorns swept the Jayhawks in three games. But in those three games, Texas won by only two
"The fact that we were competitive in Austin is the most important thing," coach Ray Bechard said. "They made plays at the end and we didn't. We had some issues at serving down there. But maybe if we can get a close game with them and get a break or two, then we can make plays at the end and go on to win at the end."
points (34-32, 33-31, 30-28).
Freshman setter Andi Rozum is number two all-time for a freshman single-season record in assists with 840. Senior defensive specialist Jennifer Kraft, who set the Kansas all-time career service aces record Saturday, had 901 career digs, which made her 10th all-time at Kansas.
Texas swept Baylor in three games on Wednesday at home. The Longhorns are third in team
hitting percentage (.270) and second in opposition hitting percentage (.150) in the conference.
Bechard said Texas was physical and athletic with players who could attack from many different angles of the court. Sophomore outside hitter Mira Topic is averaging 4.23 kills per game, which is fourth in the Big 12. Sophomore middle blocker Kathy Hahn's .352 hitting percentage is sixth in the conference.
"All of our games down there have been close," Michaels said. "We were close to beating them there and having the Longhorns come to our home court gives us a little bit of incentive. I think it'll help us pull through in the end."

Big 12 tournament position at stake; Kansas soccer plays Missouri tonight
By Daniel Berk
dberk@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas soccer team was unable to celebrate Halloween yesterday because it was preparing for its biggest game of the year at 7 tonight in Columbia, Mo.
The Jayhawks will face off against the Missouri Tigers in a game that will decide the Jayhawks' seed in the Big 12 Tournament. If Kansas wins, it will be seeded number four when the tournament begins next week in San Antonio, Texas. If the Jayhawks lose they will slip to the seventh seed.
"This game is huge," Kansas coach Mark Francis said. "The only thing we are thinking about right now is our seeding, and we
know that we have to win this game."
Tonight's battle should be fierce as Missouri and Kansas have had similar seasons.
CINEMATOGRAPHY
Francis
Kansas is
coming into tonight's game with an 11-5-2 record after dropping both of its games last weekend, for the first time all year.
Missouri enters the game with a record of 10-6-2,and both teams have a 4-4-1 conference record.
Offensively, the Tigers are led by junior forward Adriene Davis who leads the team with nine goals, 10 assists and 28 points.
Junior Stephanie Krawczyk has started the last six games for the Tigers and has posted a 1.82 goals against average.
Last season, Miller set the freshman record with a 1.40 goals against average, and this season she has a 1.25 goals against average.
Kansas has had stable play in the net with sophomore goalkeeper Meghan Miller. With her season-high eight saves last weekend against Texas A&M. Miller has 72 saves on the season, which is one more than she had last year. Her 143 career saves put her second on the all-time saves list at Kansas.
The Jayhawks will also have some revenge on their minds as they will to try aveague a 1-0 double overtime heartbreaker to Missouri last year in the Big 12 Tournament. Missouri leads the alltime series 5-2.
"This game is huge. The only thing we are thinking about right now is our seeding,and we know that we have to win this game."
Mark Francis Kansas soccer coach
Kansas might be without its leading scorer. Freshman forward Caroline Smith has a partially-torn medial collateral ligament and, Francis said, she will be a game-time decision.

"There's no reason." said the victim's teenage son, Jason Mizell Jr. "He didn't really do anything wrong."
NEW YORK — While police investigated whether a feud led to the fatal shooting of hip-hop pioneer Jam Master Jay, skeptical friends and family mourned him yesterday and puzzled over the slaying.
Witnesses said two men in dark clothing were buzzed into the rap star's second-floor Queens recording studio on Wednesday night, police said. A single bullet was fired into the head of the Run DMC co-founder as he played a video game with another man. Jam Master Jay, whose real name was Jason Mizell, was 37.
The other man, Uriel Rincon, 25, was shot in the leg and was released from the hospital yesterday. He was among five witnesses being questioned by police, said a law enforcement source who spoke on condition of anonymity.
"They're checking out varying

theories, including, 'Was it the result of a personal feud? Was it linked to this East Coast-West Coast rappers?' and other possible motives," the law enforcement source said.
Another source, also speaking anonymously, said: "They're looking at some sort of dispute, anything from a personal dispute to some kind of rap rivalry."
Bereaved fans outside the crime scene laid flowers, candles, personal notes and an Adidas sneaker — a reference to the group's hit song "My Adidas" —
Many in the rap industry questioned whether Mizell, known as a family man and social activist, would ever be caught in a violent flare-up — especially a coastal feud that seemed to have little to do with him.
"Before the media rushes to attribute this to East Coast-West Coast violence, they should examine Run DMC's two decades of contributions and Jam Master Jay's personal character," said hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons, whose brother Joseph founded the group with Mizell.
with "R.I.P JMJ" handwritten in marker.
"Whoever did this, they should know that they really just took a piece of history away," said Nassau Community College student JaCmine Mitchell, 20. "When I was a kid, my mother never sang me lullabies. She sang me Run DMC."
Police investigating the shooting discovered what one source described as a "credible threat" against rapper 50 Cent, whose show yesterday planned for a midtown nightclub was cancelled on their recommendation.
He said he had no idea who would want to harm Mizell.
Chris Lighty, 50 Cent's manager, said he doubted the killing and the reported threat were linked.
"There's a threat against anyone in this business every day," he said.
"This is the worst thing that could happen to a guy that has nothing but kindness to spread," Lighty said. "He's an icon in our business. It's a disaster in our community."

another home game for K-State. This is a trip the 'Cats take every other year down the road to Memorial Stadium, a.k.a. KSU Stadium East.
Does Mangino really believe that hordes of KU students will be packing into Memorial?
Come on, let's be realistic. Most will spend their Saturday afternoon shopping at one of Lawrence's many organic food stores and then return home to pay homage to their Roy Williams shrine.
He went on to say, "But where they've encountered most of their problems is playing away from KSU stadium." Again those problems have not occurred in
Lawrence where K-State has averaged 41 points a game and held KU to 11 a game the last nine years.
Mangino then went on to say "I know there's going to be a lot of fans here from Kansas State but we're going to have a ton of fans here as well".
Well I guess we have to remember the source. This is coming from a guy that willingly took a head coaching position in Snuder's backyard.
Even if the Jayhawks have some fans show up, the only chant they will doing is the Rock Chalk Walk on their way leaving the stadium midway through the first quarter, with thoughts of basketball dancing in their heads.
But past experiences aside, this year's squad's chances don't look much better. Injuries are not
The one glimmer of hope for the endangered species known as KU football fans has been the play of junior quarterback Bill Whittimore.
going to help the Jayhawk's opportunities.
However, he injured his knee against Missouri last Saturday in Columbia, and is questionable for the Sunflower Showdown.
The potential replacement? A fifth-year senior who has attempted four passes at KU, and his name Jonas.
The offensive threat known as Jonas Weatherbie completed one pass, and was sacked for a safety against the lowly Tigers on his way to rolling up 12 yards of total offense.
These days, 12 yards and five bucks will buy you a Belfast Bomber at O'Malley's.
OK, so maybe he isn't that menacing of an athlete but he comes from successful football family, right?
Wrong again. Weatherbie's dad, Charlie, had the honor of losing 17 out his last 18 games as head coach of Navy.
Well at least he hasn't gotten stuck in a Taco Bell drive-thru. This is true, but Weatherbie is no stranger to the cuffs either. While the rest of the team prepares for the game Saturday, Weatherbie will be in Lawrence Municipal Court on Friday for a DUI hearing.
And who can blame him. I know I'd probably be hitting the bottle pretty hard after five years of being a part of KU Football too.
Shank is a senior in secondary education at Kansas State University.
averages rank as the fourth best in the nation.
"They've got a good defense," Weatherbie said. "They've got some athletes out there, and we just can't make too many mistakes with them. Basically, win the turnover battle."
Football CONTINUED FROM 1B
A victory for K-State (6-2 overall, 2-2 Big 12) would make the Wildcats eligible for a bowl for the 10th straight season, putting them in elite company.
K-State will attempt to earn that victory behind an offense that junior quarterback Ell Roberson has directed to an average of 42.4 points per game.
Roberson is a threat, but
Mangino said he had no bad feelings toward the program he had been a part of.
"Just because I'm the head coach at KU doesn't mean I hate Kansas State," Mangino said. "In fact nothing could be further from the truth, but we'll compete with them every year for three hours."

Kansan Classified
Mangino said Kansas' defense would not ignore Roberson's passing abilities.
"We know we have to be able to play the run very well against Kansas State," Mangino said. "But we're not going to take the pass for granted because I believe Ell Roberson, when he's hot, he can throw the ball."

Kick the 'Kansan' champ recommends second place to panelists
Tiffin at Morehead State —MoreheadState
By Doyle Murphy
dmurphy@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
Surgeon General's Fake Warning: If you are offended by unabashed bragging, boasting, trash talking or utter nonsense, read no further. I've beaten every member of this week's panel, and it's payback time for the season-sized bag of beatings I've taken.
this week's Kick the Kansan "winners." Not a single member of this week's panel had a better record than I did last week. Still, they'll all get their T-shirts and coupons for Mojos, not to mention the instant celebrity status. What did I get — the satisfaction of doing something right. Second place is looking better already, huh?
In case you're not convinced, take a look at Kara Hansen.
Topeka sophomore. Hansen was on the panel earlier this semester when she tied me. I count that as second-place — tie goes to the dealer, you know. I had the opportunity to talk with her about how the experience has changed her life.
"My teachers were saying that I was famous now, because I was in the Kansan." Hansen said.
Careful, Kara — they don't really love you. They just want a
piece of the Hollywood lifestyle Kick the Kansan has undoubtedly provided for you. Let me tell you, identifying your true friends gets hard when you're famous.
Honestly folks, this second-place business is a sweet deal. As the second-place finisher, you avoid the nearly unbearable media spotlight placed on the champion, who, in case you forget, is me this week. You assume the coveted role of underdog.
with millions rooting for you. In the event that the champion is not able to perform his duties, you step in on the speaking tour.
And it's the same place that Kansan sportswriter John Domoney occupies. Domoney is a former champion, and he hasn't won since. Some may argue that losing his ballot has something to do with it, but I'm pretty sure that he just prefers second.
The champion — that's me;
again — is bombarded by adoring fans everywhere he goes. As soon as people hear that you are a Kick the Kansan champ, the questions start flying. Questions such as "Who are you?" "Kick the what?" and "Who cares?" All that attention can be a real nightmare.
So it may be time to shift your priorities. Aim for that first-runner up position. I'll bear the burden of champion.

are also the defending NCAA champions.
Both teams are ready to
run," he said. "On paper, if we finish like we should, we'll do better than last year."
The women's 6k race will start at 10 a.m. and the men's 8k race at 11 a.m. Weather casters predict the temperature to be between 35 to 40 degrees. Junior Laura Lavoie said the team
should be ready for the cooler temperatures because they had been training in the same conditions in Lawrence.
For the men, senior Mark Menefee and sophomore Chris Jones have set the pace for Kansas. The two have traded off as the first and second place
Kansas runners this season.
Junior Laura Lavoie, sophomore Megan Manthe and junior Paige Higgins have been at the front of the Kansas women's pack.
Manthe said the team had been watching many Big 12 team results and comparing Kansas' progress to them. She said comparing skills was hard because the results came from other courses and under different conditions.
"I think for sure we want to place higher than last year," Manthe said. "We'd like to be top three to five."

Kristen Zucht, Lanexa sophomore and Sara Zafar, Wichita sophomore, protest in silence against the use of military force on Iraq. The Women in Black, a movement for peace, gathered at Ninth and Massachusetts streets Saturday afternoon to spread its message.
By George Schulz
gschulz@kansan.com
Kansan scrip writer
Wearing black to symbolize their resistance to war, 24 women held a vigil at Ninth and Massachusetts streets Saturday to contest President George Bush's proposed preemptive strike against Iraq.
Braving frigid and damp weather, the group acted in coalition with an international network of women opposed to violence and militarism known as Women in Black. The network formed in 1988 in Israel to engage in "the politics of resistance which inspires women in different parts of the world to organize actions and protests" according to a flier distributed at the vigil.
"I'm out here because I think war in Iraq is unjust," said Sarah Hoskinson, a recent University of Kansas graduate.
"In terms of the security of our nation, it's going to make us less safe."
Hoskinson added that she was concerned about the possibility of large-scale civilian deaths.
According to The Washington Post, the Pentagon foresees military conflict in Baghdad, an Iraqi city of five million residents where the death toll could be high.
Members of Women in Black believe an attack on Iraq would result in even more Iraqi civilian casualties than America's war on Afghanistan.
A CNN/USA Today Gallup Poll conducted Oct. 3-6 states that 52 percent of Americans still favor invading Iraq with U.S. ground troops in an attempt to remove Saddam Hussein from power. Forty percent of those polled opposed an invasion.
Carolyn Micek, Baldwin City resident, said news outlets were not doing enough to cover the amount of dissent among

U. S. citizens against a war with Iraq.
"I feel in our mainstream media, there is no opposition to the war," she said. "All we hear is support for the war. We want to let others know there are people who oppose the war."
Alexa Redford, Prairie Village senior, said civilian women in the United States had just as much of a stake in the war as men.
"I'm here because I don't think war is a solution to our problems," she said. "I feel like as a woman, our opinions are not taken into consideration as the government sends our brothers and sons off to die and to kill."
According to the flier, Women in Black believes an attack on Iraq would further ignite anti-American sentiment around the world and counter efforts to combat terrorist networks.
Sara Zafar, Wichita sophomore and columnist for The University Daily Kansan, said the vigil was designed to help U.S. citizens understand the potentially negative repercussions of an attack on Iraq.
"The preemptive strike idea doesn't seem conducive to what we're trying to achieve," she said. "Attacking them gives them the excuse to attack us."
Graduate degrees aid job search
Edited by Lauren Beatty

ebeaty@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
These days, getting a job may depend on students getting graduate degrees.
John Augusto, assistant dean of the Graduate School, said a tight job market created competition for positions and that employers would be more likely to hire applicants who had graduate degrees over those with only bachelor's.
A graduate degree gives an employee job security and helps with promotions and job retention during a tight economy, said Bonnie Eissner, a representative from Kaplan Test Prep, a company that provides test preparation and admission services for students.
During the economic slump, more people are applying to graduate schools, she said.
Students can attend a free workshop today that provides information on the application process. The Graduate School and University Career and Employment Services are sponsoring the workshop, "Getting Into Highly Competitive Graduate Schools," from 3:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.at 4007 Wescoe.
The workshop includes a videotaped presentation by Donald Asher, a nationally-recognized expert in graduate school admission, and a panel discussion with KU graduate school students and staff.
Students will learn how to make a portfolio and what graduate schools look for in applicants.
Kaplan had a recent increase of more than 20 percent in revenue in its graduate test preparation division. Eissner said the largest increases were in the preparation classes for the Graduate Record Examination, or GRE, and the Law School Admission Test, or LSAT.
Zach Barnes, Little Rock, Ark., senior, said he planned to take the Graduate Management Admissions Test, or GMAT He plans to get a graduate degree in accounting and take the Certified Public Accountant test. He said students need a certain amount of credits to take the exam.

Erin (left) and Kristen Maxwell, Chesterfield, Mo. freshmen, get the crowd fired up at the game against Kansas State on Saturday. The Maxwell twins are one of two sets of twins on the Crimson Girls this year.
DOUBLETROUBLE

Kansan staff writer
This year, Crimson Girls practices and performances look more like a Doublemint gum commercial.
"People always ask us about being twins, but it's just the same as being a single sibling," said Amber Burkemper, St. Charles, Mo., freshman. "I'd be just like, 'How does it feel to be a single person?' but I'll never know."
Two sets of identical twins, Amber and Ashley Burkemper and Erin and Kristen Maxwell, have joined the squad.
The phenomenon has attracted some attention from onlookers and created a little confusion for the rest of the squad, but the twins said they didn't get tired of those reactions — or each other.
The Burkempers began dancing when they were 3 years old and competed against the Maxwells, Chesterfield, Mo., freshmen, during high school. The Maxwells began dance lessons when they were 4.
Erin Maxwell said she and her sister met the Burkempers when they came to audition for the school of dance at the University. She said they encouraged her and her sister to try out for the Crimson Girls.
"Usually sisters follow in older sisters' footsteps," said spirit squad coordinator Cat Jarzemkoski. "This is my first experience with a double set of twins — and from the same area."
Jarzemkoski said she still had difficulty identifying the twins, although the twins said the rest of the squad is finally starting to catch on.
The Burkempers said their personalities were nearly identical, but people could tell them apart because Amber has a beauty mark on the right side of her neck.
"We're kind of known as the short twins and they're the tall twins," Ashley Burkemper said.
"At first, everyone was like, 'I'll never get it.'" Kristen Maxwell said. "But we have such different personalities that, once they know it, we have no problems."
The Maxwells said they were more easily distinguishable than the Burkempers because of their different characteristics and facial expressions.
It was interesting to watch the twins dance, Jarzemkoski said, because their movements were so similar.
The twins said they practiced together and pushed each other to learn the choreography, just as they had when they were growing up.
The Crimson Girls has two sets of twins this year
Both sets of twins said it was easier to live with their twin than with strangers. They said having separate classes helped relieve any tensions.
"We're just used to it," Kristen Maxwell said of living with her sister. "There are times when Erin and I will be in our room and not talk to each other for a period of time. Other than that, we know how to be in each other's face."
A new experience for both sets of twins was being around another set, they said.
"We got the biggest kick out of watching each other," Kristen Maxwell said. "Just to watch them, I was more like Amber and Erin was more like Ashley. We could just see it."
But being around each other and answering the same questions from curious onlookers were constant.
"People just plain-out ask us if we're twins." Amber Burkemer said.
Ashley Burkemper said the most common questions were when their birthday was and if they ever trick people.
"We get a lot of attention for it," Kristen Maxwell said. "People will be like, 'Oh, twins' and then they'll turn and, 'Oh, another set of twins.'

Location important for voters

Students who vote in Precinct 21 must go to a different polling station this year.
Voting is more than just showing up. You at least have to show up at the right spot.
For a registered voter in Douglas County, his or her name will be listed on the registers of only one of more than 50 polling stations in Lawrence.
Many voting problems stem from confusion about where to vote, said Jo Dalaluve, deputy county clerk of elections. If a voter's name does not appear on the register, poll station workers will call the county clerk's office.
"We'll try to find out the reason. It could just be they're at the wrong spot," Dalquest said.
The approximately 800 registered voters in Precinct 21 must go tomorrow to the KU Visitor Center instead of the St. Lawrence Catholic Center to cast their ballots. The change in polling stations is due to construction of a parking garage at the church.
To avoid long lines at the polls, students should vote early, Dalquest said. Lunch time and after-work hours are typically the busiest times at polling stations on election day.
There are at least 3,428 new voters this year, thanks to a Student Senate campaign to get students registered, said Jeff Allmon, organizer of the Save Johnson voter registration campaign. He said this year voting is especially important.
"The state budget is in a terrible, terrible situation," Allmon, Wichita senior, said. "Higher education is an easy thing to cut."
The polls will be open tomorrow from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. People who received advanced voting ballots must return them to the county clerk's office, 1100 Massachusetts St., before the polls close.
Registering to vote is only the first step,
Allmon said. Voting completes the cycle.
"The whole campaign is not going to be successful if people don't get out there and vote," Allmon said.

CORRECTION
A column in Fridav's Kansan by Kansas State Collegian writer Chris Shank, referred to former Kansas quarterback Mario Kinsey as a "pot-head." Kinsey was arrested May 25, 2002 and charged with possession of marijuana after being arrested while riding in a car that was pulled over for reckless driving.
Shank also stated Dion Rayford was seeking free food at Taco Bell in November 1999. Rayford was arrested for assault, criminal damage and transporting an open container, when he jumped through a Taco Bell window. There has been no proof that Rayford was seeking free food.

Face painting to benefit Thanksgiving for homeless
KJHK is sponsoring a face-painting event today to raise money for the Lawrence Interdenominational Nutrition Kitchen's Thanksgiving feast, an organization that serves an average of 400 homeless and housebound people in Lawrence every Thanksgiving.
For $1, students can get their faces painted to show school spirit for the men's basketball team's first game of the season tonight.
"People can do something fun for the basketball game and do something that will make a difference and help out at the same time," said Robin Parker, project coordinator.
The event is on the third floor of the Kansas Union today from 12 to 3 p.m.

Budget cuts motivate students to register to vote
Another 3,428 KU students have registered to vote in Kansas following the University's voter registration drive, coordinated by the Student Legislative Awareness Board.
Less than 2,000 KU students registered during the drive in 2000,a presidential election year.
Jeff Allmon, community affairs director for SLAB, said civic responsibility had been the goal in previous drives, but budget cuts to the Univer
sity helped motivate this year's campaign.
"Higher education is an easy target, especially when you've got a group of people who don't usually vote," Allmon said.

Dozens injured in collision on California freeway
NATION
LONG BEACH, Calif. — Nearly 200 cars and big-rig trucks collided on a foggy stretch of Long Beach Freeway early Sunday, injuring dozens of people, nine critically, and closing the highway for hours.
"The fog was thick and all you saw on the horizon was the cars piled up in both directions," driver Rob Ziegler told KABC-TV.
California Highway Patrol Officer Joseph Pace said 194 vehicles, including seven or eight tractor-trailers, were involved in two separate pileups about a half-mile apart. Some cars were buried under others, and some of the injured had to be cut from their vehicles.

Students destroy K-State clunker to help support children's camp
By Todd Rapp
trapp@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Armed with sledgehammers and baseball bats, students and faculty bashed one of the many K-State cars in town this weekend in the name of school spirit and charity.
The car, parked in the lawn in front of Stauffer-Flint Hall, was the target of Phi Kappa Tau's Car Bash to raise money for The Hole in the Wall Gang Camps.
A 1987 Geo Storm was painted purple with "K-State" written in white spray paint. Donations of different amounts got students different number of swings at the car.
"Our main goal was to raise money for the Hole in the Wall Gang and school spirit for KU," Tony Vhanek, vice president of Phi Kappa Tau, said.
Vyhanek, Overland Park senior, said the car bash was fairly difficult to organize, because they had to find a donor of the
vehicle, remove all the glass and fluids, then get it up on campus.
Vyhanek said the bash was successful. The Car Bash raised approximately $400 for Phi Kappa Tau's philanthropy.
Justin Talley, treasurer for Phi Kappa Tau, said the camps were for terminally ill children. Each child attends the camp free of cost, but it takes between $2,000 and $3,000 for each child to go. The camp sites are built through donated materials and funds, Talley, Overland Park junior.
said.
At the end of the day, the car's roof was beaten level with the hood, the engine was ripped apart, and both bumpers and the driver side door had been knocked off. Students broke a bat and a sledgehammer.
"One of the guys said 'you swing like a girl;' then I beat the crap out of the car after that," Jennifer Hefel, Derby sophomore, said.

Greens begin series to discuss poverty
By George Schulz
gschulz@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Focusing on poverty issues, a month-long series of KU Greensponsored discussions began yesterday at Lawrence Memorial Hospital.
The forum, entitled "Discussing Poverty: Unveiling Myths and Questions, Providing Facts and Solutions," will continue running 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. Sundays until Dec. 8 at the hospital. 325 Maine St.
Mark Horowitz, co-coordinator of the Kaw Valley Living Wage Alliance, spoke to a group of about 20 people yesterday afternoon at the forum's first discussion, "Understanding Poverty."
"The bottom line is, what are we starting to see?" he said. "Poverty is on the rise."
He told the audience the economic landscape in the United States had shifted radically in the early 1970s.
The gap between the rich and poor grew larger, and average wages compared to the cost of living began to drop. He said today's average American citizen working 50 hours a week for minimum wage with no vacation would still be living below the poverty line.
Horowitz cited the increase in global trade and the flight of jobs from the United States to other countries, such as Mexico, as reasons Americans were struggling to compete successfully for well-paying jobs.
Horowitz said he wanted the alliance's efforts to pressure the city to implement a living wage for Lawrence workers to help alleviate poverty on a local level. The
alliance, formed two summers ago, is pushing for a $9.39 minimum wage plus health benefits.
The minimum wage would apply to companies that receive tax abatements from the city to locate in the Lawrence area.
Horowitz said the alliance formed after American Eagle Outfitters sparked local controversy in 2000. The city offered it a 10-year, 80-percent tax break with no incentive to pay Lawrence workers enough to keep them above the poverty level.
He said more than 80 other cities and counties in the country had living wage ordinances in place. He denied that a living wage would discourage investors from moving to Lawrence.
"If you take a look at the studies, they do not show declines in investment or jobs in cities with living wages," he said.
Horowitz used U.S. Census Bureau statistics and information on poverty recently published in The New York Times to explain the alliance's position.
Organizers for the forum said poverty discussions were beginning to address the issues they were concerned about when they began organizing for the forum
"We knew welfare reform wasn't working for a lot of people so we wanted to do something about it," said Amanda Harrison, Lawrence senior, who helped organize the forum.
Jessica Cook, Topeka sophomore, concurred.
"I find the issues fascinating and they touch a lot of facets of the community," she said. "It's going to take dialogue on these issues to get change."

KU beats rival where it counts in academics and partying
A after a weekend of a purple haze, I began to become reflective of the KU/K-State rivalry.
You see in my hometown of Johnson, Kan., located in the southwest part of the state, it is a rarity for someone to not bleed purple. Out of my graduating class of 38, six of my classmates chose to go to Silo Tech, and more have arrived since. I was the only one to take the higher road and go to KU.
COMMENTARY
I thought when I graduated this would just create some friendly banter between friends, but after receiving numerous phone calls year after year with sounds of the K-State fight song playing on the other line. I am taking a stand.

I have to admit that arguing about whose school is superior has never been easy for me during football season. Even when basketball season comes and I remind them that K-State has never beat KU in Bramlage Coliseum, I am still faced with that inevitable call in March followed by a choking sound.
KU and K-State were both ranked by
To my fellow Jayhawks who have remained friends with those who live for Willie the Wildcat, it is time we take this battle away from ESPN highlights and back to where it really counts, partying and academics.
U. S. News and World Report in several categories this year to determine where they stand nationally compared to other colleges Our Business school ranked 28th out of 95 schools and our Engineering school ranked 36th out of 78 schools.
What about K-State? Their same respective schools weren't ranked in the top 50 like ours were.
Then of course comes the most important ranking of all.
Playboy ranked KU ninth on the list of best party schools in the nation. Now I know that this ranking upset many of you, but you have to understand that anytime we can point out something we do better than K-State we should be happy.
I would also like to take this opportunity to point out to my K-State friends that you have told me on more than one occasion how much you like Lawrence.
I would also like to point out that my K-State friends as, I am sure some of your K-State friends drove up to Lawrence to watch KU take on Maryland in the Final Four last season.
Why? Because they are closet fans or at least that is my theory.
But, you see I am above pointing out the true colors of K-State.
Like their football team's preseason schedule full of tough opponents like Louisiana- Monroe and Eastern Illinois (and they wonder why they don't go to better bowl games).
I am above pointing out that according to the Topeka Capital Journal online site, K-State's basketball team hasn't beat KU anywhere since 1994 when most of my friends were in the seventh grade.
Yet, it is my obligation in the spirit of the Jayhawk to point out that I go to a higher academically ranked school and the student body I am a part of parties better than most of the nation.
However, if my phone happens to dial a few of my K-State friends around basketball season and a few people I am around just happen to be saying the Rock Chalk Chant there is nothing I can do about it.

Forget Ayn Rand: voting is a duty according to dictionary
On Oct 29, Audrey Snyder wrote in her column that Ayn Rand defined a duty as "the moral necessity to perform certain actions for no reason other than obedience to some higher authority."
Merrigan-Webster's 10th New Collegiate Dictionary defines duty as: 2a : obligatory tasks, conduct, service, or functions that arise from one's position (as in life or in a group)
I don't know about you, but I'll trust good old M-Wover Amy Rand any day.
The notion that it's quite alright not to vote if you don't know the issues is as ludicrous as using a modern novelist to define a timeless English word.
Let's look at Merriam.Webster's definition a bit more closely. Obligatory is defined as "binding in law or conscience."
Now, one is never forced to vote by law, but one's conscience and national pride should motivate one to vote.
Voting is one of our most precious rights. Voting is the only way to make our politicians listen to us.
As for one's position, we're Americans with many freedoms. Our position is one of being citizens of a great nation that allows its citizens to choose its leaders; our position in and of itself should be enough motivation to utilize the system.
Americans do have a duty to their conscience to vote in all elections. And along with that duty is the duty to be informed on candidates' plans and platforms.
GUEST COMMENTARY

Patrick Ross opinion@kansan.com
Every student here at the University of Kansas has access to the Internet. Every candidate that is running for any kind of office these days has a web site that will inform a potential voter about the candidate's proposed policies and ideas about current issues.
Our tuition at this very institution was
raised because the state and legislature did not have money to allocate because of the budget shortfall. Informed voting may have prevented that. Almost everyone complains about the tuition increases and the general consensus seems to be that it's too late to do anything about it. Voting can change what we don't like about this city, state and country.
Even still, if lines can make you run screaming from your societal privileges, the advance voting ballot is your new best
If you think it's inconvenient to wait in a line, how on earth did you ever enroll at KU? If enrollment is important enough to wait for, certainly choosing who is running our government should be equally as important.
friend. Keep it in mind. I wholeheartedly agree that voting without knowing for whom or what you're voting is a travesty. No one should vote without knowing the issues at hand.
But everyone should vote, and therefore, everyone should get informed. There are debates, forums, Web sites, fliers and many, many other ways to get at least a beginning grasp upon the issues being decided by your vote.
So, this election season, think before you decide simply not to vote. Make informed decisions. Get out and vote. Or use the advance voting ballot system.. Either way, it's your duty.

WICHITA — Jurors resumed deliberations Friday in the murder trial of two brothers accused of a nine-day crime spree that left five people dead.
In closing arguments Thursday, prosecutors said greed and lust drove Reginald and Jonathan Carr to commit the rampage, which ended after a wounded survivor ran bleeding and naked from a soccer field to get help.
"The crimes ended because of one girl who had the resolve to survive to tell the story." Deputy District Attorney Kim Parker told the jury.
Lawyers for each of the brothers, meanwhile, sought to blame the other for the crimes.
Prosecutors presented graphic
pictures of four victims lying in the snow-covered field where they died.
"You have four people frozen in time — bullets that thrashed through their brains that drew the life out of them, that froze their hearts on that field of snow. They died by criminal means and they died together at the hands of two brothers, Jonathan and Reginald Carr," District Attorney Nola Foulston told jurors.
The survivor of the quadruple killing sat quietly in the front row throughout the arguments, averting her eyes whenever photographs of her dead friends were projected onto the screen.
The Carr brothers are charged with numerous crimes. The most notorious involves the events during two days in December 2000, when two armed intruders
entered a Wichita home.
The two women and three men inside were forced to engage in sexual acts with each other and to withdraw money from ATMs. The women were repeatedly raped before the five friends were taken to the soccer field and shot.
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 a mile to find help. She identified the Carr brothers as her attackers.
Jurors are deliberating over 47 counts filed against each brother, including four counts of capital murder for the quadruple killings.
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 a man was abducted and forced to withdraw cash from ATMs.
John Val Wachtel, attorney for Reginald Carr, told jurors that the crime scene contained DNA evidence he said belonged to Jonathan Carr.
Val Wachtel also focused on discrepancies in the description of Reginald Carr from the survivor of the quadruple killings.
Mark Manna, attorney for Jonathan Carr, said no evidence connected his client to Walenta's shooting or the robbery.
Neither the male robbery victim nor Walenta before her death could identify Jonathan Carr as one of the two men who attacked them —but both identified Reginald Carr, Manna said.

Josh Goodpeed, Ottawa resident, positions a vacuum hose as he helps clean up the nearly 35,000 bushels, or 1,050 tons, of corn that spilled out after a 64-foot-tall steel grain bin collapsed Wednesday. The bin, one of 16 just north of Lawrence on U.S. Highway 24, apparently buckled after a seam on its side split open, Goodpeed said. The spilled corn was valued at about $100,000.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska - A major earthquake rocked a sparsely populated area of interior Alaska yesterday, knocking over fuel tanks, damaging highways and shaking up rural homes.
The 7.9 quake, centered 90 miles south of Fairbanks, was strongly felt in Anchorage about 270 miles to the south. It hit at 1:13 p.m. Alaska Standard Time, said Bruce Turner of Alaska Tsunami Warning Center.
Major earthquake hits Alaska; damages homes
KCAM-radio in Glennallen reported that fuel tanks in the
interior village of Slana were tipped over and that nearby highways suffered damage.
Paul Whitmore of Alaska Tsunami Warning Center said the highway between Anchorage and Fairbanks was damaged and Alaska State Troopers had closed the road to one lane.
Jill Woster said she was driving between Fairbanks and her home in North Pole when the quake began.
Museum displays artifacts from wars

"The car felt like it was going to fall apart," she said. Woster arrived home to find pictures off the walls and on the floor, along with glassware.
The Associated Press
"For those who didn't go there and fight, this was their fight," said Debbie Amend, curator of education for the museum, located east of downtown El Dorado.
Most of the artifacts that make up the exhibit, "War on the Homefront," were donations from Butler County and El Dorado residents. The exhibit opened Friday.
EL DORADO — Ration books and other examples of sacrifices made on the homefront during times of war are showcased in an exhibit at the Kansas Oil & Gas Museum.
In one corner of the gallery sits a collection of trophies, tires and car parts. Families would have donated the items for the production of war supplies. A war-era newspaper graphic shows that one bucket could be made into three bayonets.
Nearby is a U.S. government poster that reads, "Use it up — wear it out — make it do."
Amend said that everything that wasn't nailed down went to
the war effort, including foil gum wrappers and favorite cooking pans.
The exhibit also features collections of items that tell the story of war weddings and saying goodbye to family members.
Photos and a couple's wedding attire — a fitted jacket-and-skirt suit and a U.S. Army uniform — represent the rushed weddings many had because of the war.
Another area shows flags that hung in windows of families whose relatives were fighting or had been killed in the war.
Also on display are souvenirs from overseas that soldiers sent home or brought home, including lithographs of German buildings and pieces of shrapnel.
And visitors are invited to record their own homefront experiences in a notebook on display.
Brad Amend, curator of collections, said the exhibit likely will be displayed again during Memorial Day weekend in 2004. That's when a Smithsonian travelling exhibit with a similar theme is scheduled to make a stop at the museum.
No-call list numbers off-limits since Friday
The Associated Press
TOPEKA - The phone should be ringing less often at the homes of the first group of Kansans to sign up for the state's no-call list.
As of Friday, telemarketers were supposed to stop calling 397,697 phone numbers that belonged to people who signed up for the list by Sept. 23. The list will be updated every three months.
Mark Ohlemeier, spokesman for the attorney general's office, said the response to the program had been an overwhelming success.
Legislators created the no-call list, which is designed to prevent unwanted telephone solicitations, with a law that took effect
"We knew this was a popular idea from the beginning." Ohlemeier said. "But what surprised us was how quickly people registered, and how many in such a short time."
The no-call list is being handled by a private company, GovConnect Inc., headquartered in Denver and New York, under a contract with the attorney general's office.
The list will not eliminate all unsolicited calls. Kansans may still get calls from political and charitable organizations and pollsters, as well as companies with which they have had a relationship within the past three years.
Ohlemeier said people who filled out forms at fairs or other public events also could receive calls.
Ohlemeier said people who continued to receive unsolicited calls after registering for the no call list should collect as much information as possible over the phone, including the telemarketers' name.
Violations of the Kansas No-Call Act can result in penalties of up to $10,000 each.

Atlanta college founded by former slaves may close
The Associated Press
ATLANTA — The financial mess at Morris Brown College is so bad that the cafeteria sometimes runs out of food, computer labs carefully ration paper, and laptop computers that cost students $1,500 each never arrived.
The historically black college founded by former slaves is more than $23 million in debt and could be forced to close in a crisis that is being blamed on its past president and her ambitious efforts to enlarge Morris Brown and raise its profile.
The 2,500-student college, whose alumni include civil rights leader Hosea Williams and teachers and politicians across the South, has been on probation with the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools and could lose its accreditation after a committee review that began Monday.
The final decision, which
could take weeks, could make or break the school, because a loss of accreditation means students would no longer be eligible for federal financial aid.
And more than 90 percent of Morris Brown's students rely on it to cover the $10,200-a-year tuition.
"Morris Brown is the bedrock, the core of what is good about Atlanta," said City Councilman Derrick Boazman, a 1991 graduate. "The school looks at people not for where they came from, but for where they're going."
Founded by members of the African Methodist Episcopal Church in 1885, Morris Brown is one of the six historically black schools that make up the Atlanta University Center, which also includes the better-known Spelman and Morehouse colleges.
Morris Brown takes many students from poor backgrounds. Many return to their hometowns as teachers.
Current school officials blame the problems on former President Dolores Cross, who has acknowledged using more than $8 million in federal student financial aid to pay faculty salaries and other bills
— which could be a violation of federal law.
"When the money came in, we paid the vendors," she told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. "When you have a college that is 82 percent tuition-driven, when money comes in, you pay bills. You take care of faculty."
In addition, the Education Department has accused the college of obtaining federal financial aid for students who dropped out or were otherwise ineligible. The department has demanded Morris Brown repay at least $5.4 million.
Cross, who resigned in February, declined to be interviewed by The Associated Press. But she has said the financial problems started long before she arrived in
1998.
Among the alleged financial missteps under Cross was a decision to make more money and get more recognition by moving the athletic program from Division II to the bigger-school Division I. But Morris Brown's teams had trouble finding opponents willing to travel to a school with such small facilities.
The men's basketball team had to crisscross the country, playing 21 of 50 games on the road.
"That was an extremely expensive undertaking," said Jim Rogers, executive director of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. "We encouraged them not to move in that direction, but they went ahead and did it anyhow. When you give advice and people ignore it or don't hear it, this is an example of what happens."
Cross was also faulted for expanding enrollment without adding housing space.
In 1998, the school had 588 freshmen. By 2000, freshman enrollment had swelled to 820. Last year,400 students had to be put up in hotels around the city for lack of dorm space, and the college shouldered the costs of shuttling them to and from campus.
College spokeswoman Veronica Shaw said no students are living in hotels this year.
Two dorms had been scheduled for construction but were never built. School officials blamed problems with obtaining financing. The Wall Street rating firm Dun & Bradstreet recently gave its worst possible credit score to Morris Brown.
Among other problems: Some students last year said they never got the laptops they paid for. It turned out Morris Brown never paid the company that supplied them.
In December, the supplier sued the college for $4.2 million.
The school is working on a recovery plan that could include tuition increases, job cuts and cutbacks in athletics and other programs.
Some students interviewed fiercely defended their school and expressed confidence in its future.
"I'm not going to transfer. I don't think anyone's planning on leaving because of this. It made us closer," said freshman Derrick Jones. "We came here for the whole black experience, and this is great. At some regular schools, black students don't get a chance to excel, but at historically black schools they do."
Laresha Pope said: "It's the responsibility of the government, the society and everyone to make sure this school stays open because it's such a historical place. This university has so, so much to offer to society, and that's not being covered. We don't get any help from anywhere."
Students turn in vouchers, return to public schools
The Associated Press
MIAMI — More than one in four students who took a voucher to attend private school in Florida this semester have transferred back to public education, a newspaper reported.
This summer, 607 students requested taxpayer-funded vouchers to leave public schools that received failing grades. As of last week, 170 had returned to public schools, The Miami Herald reported Sunday.
In one county, Miami-Dade, 90 of 330 students who requested vouchers have returned to public school — and more than two in three were back in their original school.
Many returning students said they felt more comfortable at their neighborhood schools, even those labeled as failing. They also cited trouble with transportation, and more demanding curricula or firmer discipline at their new schools.
"I didn't know the teachers
and the principal there," said junior Michael Seymour, 16, who returned to Miami Edison Senior High from Archbishop Curley/Notre Dame High. "I had to learn a whole new system there, and I've already been through that process once at Edison."
Critics of vouchers, a cornerstone of the education policies implemented by Gov. Jeb Bush, said the returning students show that vouchers are misguided.
But a spokeswoman for Bush called the trend a triumph of school choice.
"No longer are these children trapped in failing schools," Katie Muniz said.
A 1999 state law allows students at public schools that earn a failing grade two years out of four to get a voucher to attend private school. Students in Escambia County that year became Florida's first to use vouchers.
About 9,000 students at 10 schools in Escambia, Miami-
Dade, Orange and Palm Beach counties became eligible this summer for the first time.
Miami-Dade officials said they think many students who returned to failing public schools were having academic or behavior problems that weren't resolved in the private schools.
"The private schools were not the panacea they had expected," said Mercedes Toural, associate superintendent foreducation.
Urban education experts say another factor might be at play: culture shock. All five failing Miami-Dade schools, for example, are in low-income neighborhoods, and most voucher students may have had a hard time acclimating to a private-school setting.
"The culture and peer group of a private school are alien, and students feel that," said Joan Wynne, associate director of the Center for Urban Education and Innovation at Florida International University.
Support from White House increases for SEC chairman
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The White House stepped up its support yesterday for embattled SEC Chairman Harvey Pitt as top presidential aides said Pitt had amassed a sterling record of fines and sanctions against corporate corruption.
Both Karen Hughes, one of President Bush's most trusted advisers, and Mary Matalin, counselor to Vice President Dick Cheney, repeated the White House position that an internal investigation under way is the way to clear up the latest controversy surrounding the Securities and Exchange Commission chief.
Pitt, under fire from Democrats for a series of alleged ethical missteps, is facing new accusations over his handling of the selection of former FBI Director William Webster to head a new accounting oversight board.
The SEC's inspector general
is investigating whether Pitt concealed from fellow commissioners, who were considering applicants for the job, that Webster had served as an accounting overseer at a company facing fraud accusations. White House sources have said the chief of staff, Andrew Card, was angry because he was not told of Webster's past before urging him to apply for the SEC appointment.
"The White House was not involved in the vetting process." Hughes said Sunday on ABC's This Week. "I think what the White House has said about that to date is ... that we need to learn all the facts and see the results of that investigation."
But, she said, "I will say that under Chairman Pitt's tenure the SEC has imposed a record amount of fines and has enacted a record number of disgorgements against corporate executives who've been engaged in unethical practices."
Appearing on CNN's Late Edition, Matalin too spoke of "a record number of fines collected from the SEC, a record number of disgorgements collected of ill-gotten funds."
"We just don't know the facts of the vetting process for Webster," she said.
Hughes, who has moved back to Texas and advises Bush under a contract with the Republican National Committee, said Pitt's record "is one of a tough crackdown against excesses and abuses in corporate America." Matalin said: "Harvey Pitt has had a great record over there in the SEC."
Previously, White House officials had said anonymously that the SEC under Pitt had a good record against corruption, but spokesman Ari Fleischer and others went no further in praising him than that Bush "continues to have confidence in Harvey Pitt," as Fleischer said Saturday.

Loss wasn't the worst in Kansas football history
Lawrence Journal-World
It wasn't the worst loss in 112 years of Kansas University football, but it was close.
No. 14 Kansas State hammered the Jayhawks, 64-0, Saturday at Memorial Stadium.
"I think our football team played well," Kansas State's Bill Snyder said. "I think we played well on offense, played well on defense and played well on special teams."
Kansas did not.
How bad was it?
The 64-0 loss ranked as the third worst in KU history, was the Jayhawks' biggest loss ever to Kansas State and ranked as the largest margin of victory in the 100-year-old series. It also marked the most points allowed by Kansas since a 71-10 loss to Oklahoma in 1987.
The shutout was K-State's first against Kansas since 1955 and gave the Wildcats their 10th straight victory against the Jayhawks, tying a series record set by Kansas between 1956 and 1965.
Coach expects dark days while rebuilding team
The Kansas City Star
He was so candid and articulate, youd swear Kansas coach Mark Mangino had been practicing his postgame speech since April.
And maybe, just maybe, he had.
Mangino said Saturday he's known for a long time that losses like the 64-0 defeat to Kansas State were inevitable as he tries to rebuild the Jayhawks' bumbling program.
"I came to the realization in spring ball that we were going to be in for some tough times," said Mangino, whose squad fell to 2-8. "I knew that. I knew there would be dark days."
Purple covered stadium as Wildcats trounced team By Kevin Haskin
By Kevin Haskin
Topeka Capital-Journal
While new carpet was installed in its own stadium over the offseason, Kansas State never considered placing a call to its archival about staging a spring scrimmage 90 miles down the Kaw.
But by halftime Saturday, the Wildcats realized how Kansas' Memorial Stadium would have looked.
What aluminum bleachers were not bare were mostly covered in purple.
All that was missing at the halfway mark was a record for most points scored in the series. K-State barely needed two minutes of the second half to attain that mark before plowing on and dismantling Kansas 64-0 before 43,000.
At least, that was the head count at the outset.
Once the No. 14 Wildcats scored on seven of nine possessions in the first half, produced a 299-yard gap in total yardage and opened a 43-0 lead, the audience thinned.
Williams couldn't save team from Saturday's defeat By Jeffrey Parson
The Wichita Eagle
With their fingers nearly frozen and their lips chapped, Kansas State band members played on even more enthusiastically.
As cornerback Terence Newman scaled the conductor's stand -Saturday's cold air highlighting every breath - it wasn't his flapping arms that invigorated the band. It was the way Newman beamed, relishing every second of K-State's 64-0 dismantling of Kansas on its home field.
Like so many recent teammates before him, Newman will leave K-State with a perfect record against the Jayhawks.
In a chainlink fence, bored KU fans used deflated Thunder Stix to spell out "SAVE US ROY."
No one, not even Roy Williams, could save Kansas from the worst defeat in the 100-game history of this series.
Wildcats relish victory against Jayhawk rivals
Manhattan Mercury
On Kansas State's bus ride over to Lawrence Saturday morning, they watched on a mini-screen, highlights from the previous nine Wildcat victories over the Jayhawks.
"We saw what we could possibly do to them again, so we're happy to do that," said KSU fullback Travis Wilson. "It was great fun. A state rivalry like this, and to win like this, it was great fun." K-State fullback Travis Wilson (44) gives a stiff-arm to Johnny McCov.
But none of those "W's" compared to the 64-zilch smearing that the Purples hung on Kansas Saturday afternoon.
The victory was the most lopsided in the 100-game history of the rivalry and the first shutout posted against Kansas since a 46-0 blanking in 1955.
Oklahoma moves closer to shot at national title
The Associated Press
NORMAN, Okla. — Nate Hyb threw three touchdown passes, Quentin Griffin ran for 128 yards, and No. 2 Oklahoma took advantage of Colorado's mistakes to beat the 13th-ranked Buffaloes 27-11 on Saturday.
With their third straight victory over a ranked team, the Sooners (8-0, 4-0 Big 12) justified their position atop the Bowl Championship Series ratings, which determine who will play for the national title. Oklahoma also beat theno-No.3 Texas and theno-No.9 Iowa State.
Chris Brown, the nation's leading rusher at 162.9 yards per game coming in, had 103 on 25 carries for Colorado (6-3, 4-1), which had not lost to Oklahoma since 1988. He is the first back to gain 100 yards against Oklahoma since Deuce McAllister of Mississippi did it in the 1999 Independence Bowl, a span of
33 games.
On a cold, sometimes rainy day, the Buffaloales turned the ball over three times, muffed a pooch kickoff and had a field goal blocked in the first half. Oklahoma turned the mistakes into 17 points to lead 20-3 at halftime, and it could have been worse.
In the third quarter, linebacker Teddy Lehman returned an interception 31 yards to set up Hybli's third touchdown pass, making the score 27-3.
Hybl threw a 17-yard touchdown pass to Antwone Savage to complete Oklahoma's first drive, which started at the Colorado 39-yard line after a fumble by Brown. Hybl also hit Mark Clayton on two scoring passes, a 17-yarder in the second quarter and a 12-yarder in the third.
Hylb was 10-of-25 for 105 yards and two interceptions. He didn't have to lead the Sooners very far to the end
zone — their three touchdown drives covered 39,24 and 9 yards.
Colorado made it 27-11 late in the third quarter on a 12-yard run by Bobby Purify and a 2-point conversion pass. The Buffaloes came up empty in the fourth after driving to the Oklahoma 23, 8 and 10, missing a field goal the first time and turning the ball over on downs twice.
Oklahoma missed a 31-yard field goal in the first quarter after taking over at the Buffaloes' 32 following a fumble recovery.
In the second quarter, the Sooners settled for a field goal after Brandon Everage returned an interception 64 yards to the Colorado 14.
Late in the half, Oklahoma took over at midfield after blocking a field goal. The Sooners eventually had first-and-10 from the 22 but went nowhere and wound up missing a 39-yard field goal.

In Lincoln, Neb., Chris Simms passed for a career-high 419 yards, and Nathan Vasher intercepted Jammal Lord's pass at the 1-yard line in the closing seconds to give No. 4 Texas a win over Nebraska.
Until Saturday, Nebraska had won 74 of its previous 75 home games. Texas, led by coach Mack Brown, is the only team to win at Memorial in all that time.

move," Stanton said.
WACO, Texas — Baylor football coach Kevin Steele, whose team has won only one Big 12 Conference game in his four seasons, was fired yesterday.
The Bears are 3-6 and 1-4 in the conference.
"It is with regret that I announce this
"Kevin's efforts have made significant improvements in many areas of our football program." Stanton said. "His leadership has emphasized discipline, academics, organization and relationships with Texas high school coaches while representing the faith-based mission of Baylor University."
Baylor lost to Texas Tech 62-11 on Saturday. Since beating Kansas 35-32 on Oct. 5 to break their 29-game Big 12 losing streak, Baylor has been
outscored 181-21 in four games, including shutouts by Texas A&M and Colorado. The Bears lost to Kansas State 44 10.
Overall, Steele is 9-53.
"I am disappointed that we were not able to meet the demands placed upon the Baylor football program in the time allowed," Steele said in a news release.
Baylor media relations director Scott Strickland said Stanton and Steele would have no additional comment Sunday.

FONTANA, Calif. — Jimmy Vasser charged past Michael Andretti on a restart two laps from the end of last night's Toyota 500 and pulled away for an easy victory in the fastest 500-mile race ever.
Andretti was apparently on the way to a win at California Speedway before Dario Franchitti's blown engine brought out a yellow flag that led to a 9-minute pause in the action four laps from the end of the 250-lap race.
It was the second time this year that CART has used the new rule allowing it to suspend the race until it is safe to resume -
letting the drivers battle for the win instead of finishing under caution.
Officials gave the field two warmup laps before turning the cars loose on lap 148. Vasser's Ford-power Team Rahal Lola fell about 10 car-lengths behind Andretti as they approached the flagstand, then shot forward as the green flag waved.
Vasser caught Andretti's Lola-Honda in the first turn and shot past as the cars entered the second turn. By the end of that lap, Vasser was ahead by several car-lengths, and Andretti was unable to mount a challenge on the last trip around the 2.029-mile oval before finishing 0.400-seconds – about 10 car-lengths – behind.

Benson claims first NASCAR win
ROCKINGHAM, N.C. — Johnny Benson ended one of the longest winless streaks in NASCAR yesterday, holding off Mark Martin to win the Pop Secret 400 for his first victory in 226 starts.
Benson, known as the best driver to never win a Winston Cup race, led the final 28 laps but had to battle Martin over the final dozen laps at North Carolina Speedway.
Martin, in the thick of the Winston Cup championship chase, was racing for the win and several times drove his Ford onto the bumper of Benson's
NASCAR
Pontiac.
When he couldn't bump Benson out of the way, he tried to pass him in the lower grooves of the race track.
None of it worked and the 39-year-old Benson beat him to the finish line by .261 seconds to become the fifth first-time winner this season.
"It was a long time coming, Johnny Benson, but you got your win," crew chief James Ince radioed him as he crossed the finish line.
Benson then started a long slide

"I thought for a couple of years that I'd never get a win," Benson said. "I was always going to be the best guy who never won a race."

Bittersweet weekend races
By Justin Schmidt

Kansan sportswinter
The Kansas cross country team had a bittersweet weekend with the men's team dropping from last year's finish and the women improving their finish at the Big 12 championships.
"I think the women's race was a total team effort. Person-for-person we did an excellent job today and that's the direction that the program is going," coach Stanley Redwine said.
The Kansas women were able to improve on last year's performance at the Big 12 meet by finishing in sixth place.
The Colorado men's and women's team won each race at the A.L. Gustin Golf Course in Columbia, Mo.

The women scored 147 points. Junior Laura Lavoie finished first for Kansas and eighth overall with a personal 6k best time of 21:05:10. Sophomore Megan Manthe, junior Paige Higgins, freshman Angela Pichardo and senior Courtney Deutsch followed Lavoie.
The Kansas men fell one place from last year's performance. The men fell from seventh last year to eighth this year. The men had only three runners from last

year's Big 12 team.
"We wanted to finish a place or two higher and it didn't work out," Redwine said. "There were some teams that were better than us today. We have to correct our mistakes and move on to regionals."
Senior Mark Menefee finished first for Kansas and 18th overall. Menefee said he was hoping for a top five finish.
Freshman Cameron Schwehr has put in several solid times for Kansas and finished second on Saturday. Schwehr has finished as one of the top three Jayhawks in all four races this season.
"I got boxed in for a while and I couldn't get around," Menefee said. "I decided I was going to make my move around 5k, but it wasn't enough."
"I went out really relaxed and really smart," Schwehr said. "I just kept it flowing after that."
The scoring five for Kansas included sophomore Chris Jones, junior Dan Ferguson, junior Brian Raggett, Meneefe and Schweir Kansas finished with 207 points.
The teams will return to action at the Midwest Regional Championships in Normal, Ill. on Nov. 16.

final pass of the first period was intercepted by Newman.
Luke fared slightly better in his collegiate debut, completing 7-of-18 passes for 74 yards and an interception.
His first completion was a 13-yard pass to Mills that gave Kansas its initial first down.

After sitting out the first nine games with an injured right hand, doctors cleared Luke to play Oct. 21.
After the game Luke said he had a decent grasp on the offense. During the game, though, he had trouble getting a good grasp on the ball. Luke fumbled three times, and the Wildeats recovered two of his mistakes.
"I take full responsibility for that," Luke said. "I should never
drop a snap. It could have been a wet ball, but I won't make any excuses."
Neither would Kansas coach Mark Mangino.
"You'd have caught more than he did," Mangino told a reporter after the game. "There's no excuse for a college quarterback not to be able to take a snap."
After seeing his second and third-string quarterbacks struggle, Mangino said Saturday's
starter against Nebraska would be decided during the week. If there were any way Whittemore could play, he would.
"I if can convince our medical staff, I'd wheel him out there next week if I could," Mangino said.
for his collegiate start. On Kansas' first play from scrimmage, freshman running back Clark Green was tackled for a safety by a host of Wildcat defenders.
"I think there's a chance it may happen. If there's a chance he can play without further injury, he'll be out there — no question."
"As early as it was in the game, it was a turning point," Mangino said. "Our kids are just not able to get over a bad play."
Luke passed for 74 yards completing 7-of-18 passes including a 31 yard screen pass to Green, but Luke was not able to produce any points for a Kansas offense that tied a Big 12 Conference record by losing five fumbles.

reads and be quick on my feet," Luke said.
Along with the issue of Bill Whittemore's availability for the remaining two games of the season against Nebraska and Oklahoma State, Mangino also said he was struggling to build confidence in his upperclassmen.
"There's nobody out there quitting, there is nobody," Mangino said. "They've known nothing but losing, and it's a struggle for them."
The 2-8 overall record and five game losing streak is also apparently taking its toll on Mangino, who said he knew there would be tough games during the building process of the program.
"When I left Norman, Oklahoma, to come here I knew it was going to be a big challenge," Mangino said.
Even losing to his former boss, Kansas State coach Bill Snyder, Mangino said that he wanted to continue to look at the big picture and not get discouraged with losses along the road.
"It's games like this and losing that for some reason it makes me more eager to find a way," Mangino said. "To me it motivates me, it keeps me going."

SWIMMING AND DIVING
SWIMMING AND DIVI Missouri too much for swimmers, divers
Despite some strong individual performances, the Kansas swimming and diving teams lost their dual with Missouri Friday.
SPORTS
After a final score of 170-126, the team's head-to-head record moved to 1. 1 this season, with Kansas leading the overall series 24-3.
"We had some outstanding events tonight despite swimming from behind most of the meet," coach Clark Campbell said. "Our team kept swimming hard throughout the entire dual."
The 1000 freestyle race was the best for the KU swimmers. Sophomore Andrea Becker won the race with a time of 10.24.65 and senior Beth Schryer finished second with a time of 10:29.77.
Kansas' next dual will take place in Lawrence Nov.9 in Robinson Natatorium against Wyoming and Southwest Missouri State.
"Andrea Becker definitely won swimmer of the meet," Campbell said. "She was outstanding in the 1000 free and took seconds off of her time in the 500 free."
On the diving side, Kansas senior Patti Stringham scored 240.3 in the one-meter competition and senior Kristi Misejka won third in the three-meter competition.

Team loses to Missouri
A loss to Missouri before the Big 12 Conference tournament was exactly what coach Mark Francis did not want.
in last regular season game
Kansas (11-6-2 overall, 4-5-1 Big 12 Conference) traveled to Columbia, Mo., Friday for its final regular season game of the year and came away with a 2-0 loss to Missouri (11-6-2, 5-4-1). With the loss, Kansas will receive the number six seed for this week's conference tournament.
Kansas' offense never got going, as they managed only two shots the entire match. Missouri took the lead 21:34 into the game on a goal by Jennifer Nobis. The Tigers tacked on another goal in the second half by Adriene Davis at the 61:14 mark of the game.
Despite letting in multiple goals for the third consecutive game, sophomore Meghan Miller recorded six saves in goal.
Kansas will play the Nebraska Cornhuskers Thursday at 7:30 in the opening round of the tournament in San Antonio, Texas. Kansas tied Nebraska earlier this season, 1-1, at home. If Kansas can win that game, they will face the winner of the Texas-Iowa State game, Friday at 7:30. Kansas lost to Texas 4-1, and defeated Iowa State 2-1, earlier in the season.
Coach Mark Francis would not comment on the game.

"We hope that Chris Marshall can continue to play so well and help himself in the national rankings," coach Ross Randall said. "Tyler Hall had a nice tournament last time out and hopefully he'll play well. We're taking two players this week who didn't play last week. We're hopeful that they'll to a good job too."
"I think what it does is it puts a premium on practice and your tournament play, because they're two totally different games," Marshall said. "I think that it's really put a different mind set to the younger guys, because they have to play well at home to go, but they have to play well at the tournament to play again."
Marshall said juggling the lineup could help some of the younger players learn about the challenges of competing at the Division I level.
After play in La Quinta, the team will have a three-month hiatus from competitive action. Despite finding it hard in the
winter months to get out on a course or a driving range and hit balls, the team will find ways to improve for a demanding spring schedule.
"Personally, I'm just going to focus on my strength and conditioning. Ball hitting is going to be tough because it gets pretty cold out here," Hall said. "The most important thing is getting our bodies ready for the spring season. Tiger Woods has rewritten all of the golf books, and everyone wants to get in the gym now."

The twinge in my leg just wouldn't die, and my right knee was starting to ache trying to compensate for my hamstring.
back of my leg just wouldn't quit
aching. I wanted to walk, I wanted to
stop, but instead I just slowed down.
Why did I subject my body to this?
Why couldn't I have just gone for a nice,
long run by myself this morning and
saved myself the $50 entry fee?
I finally let Sarah just go ahead of me at the 21 mile marker after she realized
she could finish the race in 4 hours. I had originally planned to finish in 4 hours, 30 minutes and we were currently at a 4:10 pace.
Being that close to such a great time, I didn't feel right weighing her down anymore.
Alone, I was determined to finish, running — not walking — the rest of the way. There was no way to turn back — the shortest route to the car to leave was through the race course. I charged up the last hill, back into downtown.
I finished in 4:11:52. I went through the chute, received my finisher's medal and was wrapped in an aluminum-foil cape designed to keep my body heat in.
I did it. I'd become a second-generation marathoner, as my dad is a finisher of 24 marathons. And I'd done it 20 minutes faster than I had imagined I could finish in. Through the sleet, steep hills and aches, I am now a marathoner, and proud of it.
Running a marathon is an experience I'd recommend to anybody. It isn't a pleasant experience, to say the least, but it's one that builds character, esteem and it's something that you can be proud of — I sure am.

Washburn to rename stadium
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — On and off the field, the Washburn Ichabods felt like a million dollars.
On the field Saturday at the Moore Bowl, the Ichabods' home stadium in Topeka, Dustin Hickel threw for three touchdowns and ran for another as underdog Washburn handed Emporia State an unexpected and costly 34-21 defeat.
The Hornets, who are now 5-2 in the MIAA, entered the game ranked fifth in the Division II Midwest Region Rankings. The top four teams qualify for the playoffs.
Also on Saturday, Washburn announced that the Moore Bowl is to be renamed Yager Stadium. An anonymous donor contributed $1 million to the renovation project, and chose former Ichabods running back Gary Yager as the stadium's namesake.
Yager, of Kansas City, Mo., is vice chairman and director of Western National Bank and Unison Bancorp Inc. He played at Washburn from 1972 to 1975, rushing for 1,297 yards and 12 touchdowns.
At Salina, Oscar Nero rushed for 160 yards and two touchdowns as Kansas Wesleyan shut out Bethel and maintained the top spot in the KCAC.
Other games involving Kansas schools included Missouri Valley 35, Baker 32; Pittsburg State 49, Truman State 35; Bethany 41, Sterling 14; Kansas Wesleyan 42, Bethel 0, and MidAmerica Nazarene 21, Benedictine 17.
Kansas Wesleyan, 6-1 in the conference, got its first score 46 seconds into
one game with a 50-yard pass from Ryan Canfield to Steve Willis. The Coyotes led 28-0 at the half.
Canfield finished with three completions for 103 yards.
The Threshers rushed for 34 yards and passed for 57, with three interceptions. Jonathan Horton carried 11 times for 19 yards.
John Booth threw a 13-yard pass to James Booth with 8:26 remaining as MidAmerica Nazarene beat Benedietine to retain first place in the Heart of America Athletic Conference.
The Ravens scored on a 35-yard halfback pass from Josh McAlister to Craig Johnson to tie it at 14 before Javier Rodas kicked a 29-yard field goal for a 17-14 Benedictine lead with 11:32 to play. But the Booths connected 3:06 later for the game-winning score.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Nov. 4).
Your energy level is right up there with that of the superheroes this year. This is good, since you'll face a few difficult situations. Get up to date on the latest techno-gadgets. That'll help a lot.
Aries (March 21-April 19). Today is a 5.
If you owe anybody money, pay off your debt. If it will take a while, form a plan. No need to tell friends or loved ones. Taking action is more important.
Taurus (April 20-May 20). Today is an 8.
Gemini (May 21-June 21). Today is a 6.
Nobody said it was gonna be easy.
And if they did, they were misinformed. The task you've been assigned requires planning, concentration and persistence. Take it one step at a time.
Somebody wants to tell you what to do. Is that really such a great idea? If so, relax. If not, you'd better scurry out the back door, pronto!
Cancer (June 22-July 22). Today is an 8. Neither a borrower nor a lender be.
Not now, anyway. Business deals are likely to go sour. Stay home and snuggle instead.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). Today is a 6.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). Today is a 6. By now you should be getting things just the way you want them. There are still a few minor adjustments required, but you'd better consult the other people who care before you make those adjustments.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Today is an 8.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21). Today is an 8. You can power through just about any obstacle now. This is good, because obstacles will certainly appear. Others
You're about to make a discovery that could lead to great changes. Keep asking the tough questions. You're onto something, and it could be something big.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22), Today is a 6.
Discretion is advised. Others may not be free to tell all, and you shouldn't either. See how much of the puzzle you can figure out without asking. That's the game.
will attempt to throw you off course.
Let them know it's futile. That should quiet them down.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Today is a 5.
is somebody leaning on you? Trying to force you to do something you don't feel right about? Think of it as a test.
Capricorn (Dec, 22-Jan, 19). Today is an 8.
A "friend" who's putting pressure on you isn't really on your side. If it won't wait until next week, a "great deal" is liable to be way too expensive.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Today is a5.
Hunker down and try not to draw much attention to yourself. Somebody else wants to give the orders now and is not in the mood to listen.
Save your suggestions till later.
Pisces(Feb.19-March20).Today is an8. Contact a distant friend for inspiration. That'll hold you till you can get together in person. Travel is not a great idea now, but maybe the two of you can visualize a hug over the phone.

Sunflower shut out for Kansas
By John Domoney
jdomoney@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
If the Kansas football team has any aspirations of ending its 33-year losing streak against Nebraska, the Jayhawks know they will have to play much better than their performance Saturday against Kansas State.
The Wildcats' 64-0 victory over the Jayhawks is the greatest margin of victory by either team in the Sunflower Showdown series, and the loss is the third worst defeat in Kansas history. Nebraska's 70-0 defeat of Kansas in 1986 is the most lopsided defeat for the Jawhaws.
"We were outplayed in every single area of the game by Kansas State," said Kansas coach Mark Mangino. "Offense, defense, kicking game, totally outplayed."
Once again, it was the first quarter
that doomed the Jayhawks and ended any hopes of an upset victory against Kansas State.
The Wildcats had the ball for almost 11 out of 15 minutes of the first quarter and outgained the Jayhawks 199 yards to -11, capturing a 30-0 lead.
After stopping Kansas State on the Wildcats' first possession, senior quarterback Jonas Weatherbie took the field

Backups fall short in Saturday's defeat
By Levi Chronister
Ichronister@kansan.com
Kansan sports editor
The Jonas Weatherbie era may have been a short one for the Kansas football team.
Weatherbie made his first collegiate start in the Jayhawks' 64-0 loss to Kansas State on Saturday at Memorial Stadium, but was pulled early in the second quarter
The seniors signal caller, who started in place of injured Bill Whitemore, was 2-of-9 passing for 0 yards and one interception before being replaced by second-year freshman Brian Luke with just less than 11 minutes left in the first half.
Weatherbie's day started auspiciously when he dropped back and passed on the Jayhawks' second play from scrimmage. Wide receiver Leo Bookman was open about five yards behind Kansas State cornerback Terence Newman, but dropped the throw.
A completion to Bookman, the reigning Big 12 Conference indoor and outdoor 200-meter champion, could have been a big gain, but the Jayhawks were stuck on their own 26-yard line instead.
"You've got to move on and go to the next play," Weatherbie said of the incompletion, "and hopefully make a play the next time."
Weatherbie couldn't, as he ran for no gain on the next play and then threw an incompletion on third down. Kansas State scored three plays later, taking a

Volleyball knocks off No.24 Texas
By Jason Hwang

There is an old saying that you "Don't Mess with Texas." Apparently the Kansas volleyball team didn't get that message Saturday.
The Jayhawks (17-5 overall, 8-5 Big 12 Conference) earned their third straight victory with an upset sweep (33-31, 30-26,
"And it just all worked together,it was awesome."
Ashley Michaels Kansas middle blocker
24 Longhorns (18-5, 9-4). Texas is the second ranked opponent Kansas has defeated in five tries this season.
"Knowing that we were so close to beating them down at their place," sophomore middle blocker Ashley Michaels said, "and them coming here and all the excitement, adrenaline, the crowd was amazing tonight. And it just all worked together, it was awesome."
The Jayhawks had 11 total team blocks, which is tied for the most in a three game match this season. Combine that with 26 Longhorn hitting errors, Texas was held to its lowest hitting percentage this season .165).
Freshman middle blocker Iosiane Lima led the team with 17 kills and marked 10 digs for her eighth doubledouble. Junior outside hitter Sarah Rome also registered her eighth double-double with 14 kills and a match-high 11 digs. Michaels had nine kills and a season-high four solo blocks.
Texas twice took one-point leads after 4-0 runs in game one, and had a game point at 30-29. The Jayhawks won four of the next five points, taking the game 33-31. Rome had seven kills in that game.
The jahawks came out with a quick 5-1 start in game three, and later went on an 11-0 run, expanding their lead to 19-4. The teams split the next 18 points, but Kansas won two of the final three points, taking the game and match.
"I think you just got a sense for what happened tonight when the crowd stood up when Texas sided out," coach Ray Bechard said.
"I think how much they appreciated how hard we were playing. We outdug and outblocked them. The hitting efficiency and serving were good. It was just a great effort against a very good ranked opponent."

Second trip to California ends fall slate
By Ryan Greene rgreene@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
To this point, it has been a fall season that has had many ups and downs for the Kansas men's golf team. Starting today, the team will look to end the fall schedule on a positive note at The Prestige 2002 in La Quinta, Calif.
The two-day tournament will include 36 holes played today,and the final 18 will conclude tomorrow afternoon. Stanford and the
This marks the second trip to California for the team in the past two weeks. Last weekend, the team placed fifth at the Stanford Invitational in Palo Alto. The Jayhawks were paced by junior Tyler Hall, who finished in a sixth place tie, and senior Chris Marshall, who landed in a tie for eighth.
University of California-Davis will be the co-hosts of the tournament's 18-team field.

done it and some guy ran the London Marathon this year in a heavy, old-fashioned scuba suit (finishing in 5 days)...why can't I do one?
So, Saturday I joined Kansas City Star sports columnist Jason Whitlock, Miss Kansas and KU senior Lindsay Douglas as well as 2,100 other racers — 600 of them marathon competitors at the combined starting line for the premiere running of the Humana River Crown Plaza Marathon.
And after my experience this weekend, I'm sure that crossing that line from runner to marathoner was one the best things I ever did. When I was doing it however, that was the last thing I was thinking. The race was a cold, dizzily, yucky mess of more than 340 hills and switch backs over 26.2 miles.
At 7:30 a.m. we were off. The first mile was hilly and fast, but not fun, as I was standing at the starting line so long that I had to go to the bathroom and my feet were so cold that I couldn't feel them anymore.
But that all changed when I was running up Broadway a mile and a half into the race一I made a friend.
And not just any friend — a grad student in journalism at Missouri, Ironic, yes, because being a journalism student at Kansas, one learns to be fierce competitors with those Missouri journalists, but she turned out to be a complete a blessing.
Sarah Mueller — yes, her name is Sarah too — was the biggest motivation I had the whole race. We paced each other, encouraged each other and talked so much that we lost count of the miles.
We didn't talk about the our schools' rivalry, but rather, we talked about running, our friends, families and job searches. We were just two people trying to run up and down all those hills and get to the finish line. Without her help it would have been one long, lonely journey back to Barney Allis Plaza.
About mile 15 my right hamstring started tightening up and I had to really work to keep the 9-minute mile pace that Sarah and I had going. I thought if just stayed with her it would be all right. Then, at mile 16 it started sleeting.
My face and neck were covered in a film of icy water and the

Ranking in Big 12 poll surprises Williams; unanswered questions mar new lineup
Coach won't comment on transfer's status
By Doyle Murphy
dmurphy@kansan.com
Kansas sportswriter
DALLAS—Kansas coach Roy Williams has told anyone who would listen how shocked he was when the Big 12 Conference coaches picked the Jayhawks first in their preseason poll.
He may have found his most incredulous audience Thursday.
"He's always surprised by that. You know that," Texas A&M coach Melvin Watkins joked at the conference's media day. "And every year we do it to him."
Williams said Kansas had too many unanswered questions to merit the designation. One of the biggest question marks is junior college transfer Jeff Graves. Listed at 6-foot-9,275 pounds in the Kansas media guide, Graves has not passed the running tests required for Jayhawk players. Williams said at a press conference two weeks ago. He reiterated that Graves had not made the team Thursday, but declined further comment.
If Williams decides not to use Graves, the Jayhawks will turn to
freshman Moulaye Niang, 6-10, 215 pounds, or senior Bryant Nash, 6-6, 205 pounds, to fill the vacant forward position.
With the identity of his sixth man still in doubt, Williams said he would have picked deeper teams, such as Texas, Oklahoma and Missouri, ahead of the Jayhawks.
For some coaches, high expectations early in the season are a nightmare. At one point last season Missouri was 9-0 and ranked second in the nation. The pressure of the national spotlight proved to be too great for the Tigers. They finished the season with a 24-12 record and dropped out of the polls. Missouri coach Quin Snyder said Williams might be trying to save his team from a similar fate.
"I reflected on that myself actually, with us last year, and me trying to talk people out of liking us as much as they did," Snyder said. "We let other stuff, external stuff come into our locker room last year. You know, it's not malicious, but you have to actively work to shut that stuff out. That may be what coach Williams is doing."
The Jayhawks were clearly the coaches' favorite. They were

Familiar faces to appear at All-Stars game tonight
Former Jayhawk Colorado alum to join Kansas on the floor

Kansan sportswinter
But tonight, the Kansas men's basketball team wants to get more out of its 7:05 p.m. exhibition game against the EA Sports All-Stars than sloppy play.
Exhibition games often a heavy breathing, shorts-grabbing and brick-making extravaganza are a time for teams to slowly begin assembling its pieces.
"We'll see how they're going to react in front of 16,300 and then get a little bit better idea on how certain combinations play together," coach Roy Williams said.
Williams said he believed the first game was more important this year because of the question marks he saw when looking down his bench.
But, Williams will also see
"I think [Jordan]'ll get a great reception. Then we're going to try to run his ol' legs to death. Once you get over 30 it's hard to run up and down as much as we're going to try and make him."

something familiar on the opponent's bench.
Former Kansas guard Adonis Jordan is a member of the EA Sports traveling exhibition team along with D.J. Harrison, a Colorado alum and nemesis of last year's Jayhawk squad. Williams said he looked forward to seeing at least one of the two players again.
"I think he'll get a great reception," Williams said about Jordan. "Then we're going to try to run his ol' legs to death. Once you get over 30 it's hard to run up and
down as much as we're going to try and make him."
And Harrison?
"I don't think he'll get quite the reception that Adonis does." Williams said.
Although this exhibition game is a glorified scrimmage and means nothing to Kansas' winloss record, one wouldn't know it by the fans' reaction, as Allen Fieldhouse is expected to reach capacity. Senior Nick Collison said he could feel the fan excitement as the season began.
"A lot of times we go to football games and hear a lot of fan telling us they can't wait until Late Night or until basketball starts." Collison said. "We have had success and people like to support successful teams. I think there are a lot of people excited about the season. I know we are."
While the fans already have dreams of March, Williams said he had only one simple goal for tonight's game.
"We are going to use Monday night as a dress rehearsal to see where we stand," he said.

Collison returns to team leadership role for this season
By Jessica Scott
jlscott@kansan.com
Kansas sportswinter
Forget the honors attached to Nick Collison's name. Ignore the preseason hype, the possibilities for his final year and the expectations of him leading Kansas to another Final Four.
Roy Williams is just glad to see his face around campus.
After a season that earned Collison an honorable mention All-American nomination, this Kansas senior faced a decision that makes any 21-year-old envious become an instant millionaire in the NBA or become one of college basketball's premier seniors.
Lucky for Williams and Kansas
fans, Collison and teammate Kirk Hinrich chose the latter.
"They're two kids that could have run and taken the money." Williams said. "They decided they're enjoying college basketball."
But, Williams said, his involvement in their decision was not necessarily appreciated by everyone.
"Their families got mad at me because I was trying to give them the truth and tell them where I thought they were going to be drafted," he said. "Both moms were going to chew my rear end."
Fast forward six months and the decisions today appear to be the right ones. The Jayhawks, with Collison leading the way, are looking to fulfill the unfinished
business from last year's NCAA Tournament.
As Kansas' returning leader in categories such as scoring, field goals, field goal percentage, rebounding and blocks, Collison said his team needed to push a little harder for a repeat performance.
"We have been there and we want to go a couple steps further and win the whole thing," he said. "We see how close we actually were and see that it can be done. We have that much more incentive to play harder this year."
Besides the two seniors, Kansas returns only one other starter, sophomore Aaron Miles. Sophomores Keith Langford and Wayne Simien round out the starting lineup.
Add this to the loss of All-American Drew Gooden and Kansas obviously needs a leader to emerge. Hinrich said he expected Colli-

son to help carry the load of the team, a role previously filled by Gooden.
"I think Nick and I are going to be the leaders of this team," Hinrich said. "We are going to be the ones who are called upon when the times are tough to make sure this队 stays on the right track."
While he realizes the increased pressure to lead the team, Collison

Now Hinrich is passing his blue collar attitude on to his teammates.
If Hinrich's preseason accolades — selected to Playboy's and Dick Vitale's first team All-America — are any indication, that is going to be a short conversation come April.

Nash welcomes the pressure of new season
By Daniel Berk
dberk@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
Junior Bryant Nash is aware of his potential importance.
He knows that if the Kansas men's basketball team wants to get to New Orleans and return to the Final Four, it's going to need him to step up. Nash understands his two years of waiting in the wings are over, and it's his time to shine.
Nash, a 6-foot-6 forward, came to Lawrence three years ago with high hopes. A McDonald's All-American nominee, Nash averaged a double-double his senior year in high school. After averaging 0.9 points a game in his career at Kansas, Nash is eager.
"I welcome the pressure, I
PETER MARRIOTT
know I have to step up this season," Nash said. "I built a lot of confidence this summer and I am tougher at the heart."
This summer.
Nash spent three weeks travening with the Big 12 All-Star Team, which played six games in Scandinavia. Nash contributed 4.3 points per game and also added 2.3 rebounds while shooting 56 percent from the floor.
Nash played with 11 other players from the Big 12 as the team went 6-0. Nash said the experience helped him in many ways.
"It boosted my confidence a
lot," Nash said. "It proved to me that I can play with the best. There was also a little bit of education mixed in with it and some sight seeing."
After his successful adventure overseas, Nash is ready to show his stuff to the fans in Lawrence. After playing in the post in high school, Nash is adjusting to play on the perimeter.
Not only has Nash been working on his play on the offensive end of the court, he has been working tirelessly on his defense. Nash wants to be a reliable bench player for the Jayhawks this season at both ends of the court.
"I know I need to improve my handles on offense," Nash said. "I also have to stay low on defense. I have been lifting more weights and I think I am a more aggressive
defender."
As if Nash did not have enough to work on this summer, he suffered a wrist injury that put him in a cast and put him on the sidelines for a couple of weeks. However, Nash did not let that stop him. He participated in conditioning with the team.
Nash's athletic abilities can't be questioned. In high school Nash broke his school triple jump record four times. This preseason he recorded the team's second highest vertical leap. However, Nash said his ankle was wrapped and he could jump even higher to beat teammate Keith Langford's vertical leap.
Nash's teammates know what Nash is capable of and are ready for him to step up and fulfill his role as the team's sixth man. A
role that is vital to the Jayhawk's success.
"Bryant Nash is an incredible athlete and has been playing with a lot of confidence out there," sophomore Aaron Miles said. "He has been knocking down his shot and getting a lot of rebounds. Hopefully, he will continue to do that throughout the season."
Nash has not had the easiest road in his career at Kansas, but his perseverance is reflected in his attitude.
"I am not going to give in. I have a love for the game, and that drives me. I have matured as a player and I want to end our season in New Orleans. That is my favorite place to travel." Nash said with a smile on his face.

After a year of sitting out, a new and improved Jeff Hawkins has emerged for the Kansas men's basketball team and he can't wait to prove himself.
Last season, as a redshirt freshman, Hawkins was prone to turnovers and fouls during practices, but coach Roy Williams said he noticed a great change in Hawkins.
"I'm really very pleased with what he's done since the end of the season last year," Roy Williams said. "Hopefully he'll be able to come in and do some things that will help us."
Hawkins said he turned the ball over often in practices last year and was too uptight. He said he also made mistakes off the court.
"I missed maybe two classes but I'd sometimes be late to tutoring," Hawkins said. "If you're one minute late, it's more like you' re an hour late. You get a 7 a.m.

for that. I had two. Most freshman have like seven hours of tutoring. I had like 13 because every time I got in trouble they added independent study for me. But this year I won't have any tutors so that must mean I'm doing good."
Hawkins said senior guard Kirk Hinrich inspired him to improve. Hinrich gave Hawkins pep talks and inspired him with his work ethic. Following Hinrich's advice helped Hawkins improve as a player and student.
"I think I'm growing up, getting
a little mature." Hawkins said. "I honestly never saw a player work as hard as Kirk. I just sit back and watch him. Usually in practice I just sit back and I'll be playing defense and I just watch him instead of holding my man because he works too hard."
Hinrich's influence may benefit Hawkins as he gets to play in his first season of Kansas basketball.
Williams said Hawkins had good ball-handling skills and quick feet on defense. He said Hawkins may contribute in more than one spot on the floor.
"Don't be surprised if he doesn't play exclusively at the point," Williams said. "We may play him some at the two (guard)."
Hawkins said he was comfortable at the point and two-guard positions because he played both in high school.
Knowing that positions off the

the game when two or three of the starters come out," Hawkins said. "That motivates me to work even harder."
Three of the Kansas starters, Hinrich, Keith Langford and Aaron Miles, play at guard. That should give Hawkins an opportunity to see plenty of playing time, especially if those three get into foul trouble.
The year Hawkins spent sitting out of games was difficult for him, but it may give him an advantage over the other freshmen on the team as they compete for playing time.
"I know the system now," Hawkins said. "I know how to get through some of the hard things that they probably won't be able to get through. I have a little more knowledge than them."
Hawkins said he saw coming off the bench as a positive thing.
"When you're coming off the

bench you get to observe what's going on on the court," Hawkins said. "You know a little bit more, like if you should turn your man more to the left or guard him a little tighter, by watching the game."
Whether he will see playing time, Hawkins said the best part of playing basketball was his teammates.
"Every time you're around this team, you can't do anything but smile and laugh. Even if you're having a bad day, there's always one teammate that can turn a bad day into a good day."

Images of improvement play in Langford's head
By Ryan Greene rgreene@kansan.com Kansan sportswinter
He's not the kind of guy to come out and say it, but Keith Langford is coming into this season with a couple of chips on his shoulder.
Like everyone else returning from last year's Final Four team, Langford wants to take last year's success one step further and
Langford
But unlike most of his teammates, Langford is trying to bury the hatchet of being seen simply as a slasher who is only dangerous with his left hand and when driving down the lane.
"I've gained tremendously. I'm three times the player I was last year," Langford said. "Confidence carries a long way, and, mentally coming into this season, I'm a lot more prepared than last year."
Last season, Langford may have made his greatest contributions to the Jayhawks when his teammates needed him the most.
Among those times were his game-winning three-pointer at Nebraska in February, his 19 points against No.4 Arizona in December, and his career-high 20 points in the Midwest Regional Final against Oregon in March.
Every time Langford stepped onto the floor last season, he did it with a cool confidence he is again assuming this year in his new starting role. That confidence also helps aid the pressure of filling some rather big shoes, those belonging to former guard Jeff Boschee and former forward
"I've gained tremendously.I'm three times the player I was last year. Confidence carries a long way,and mentally coming into this season, I'm a lot more prepared than last year."
Keith Langford Kansas basketball guard
Drew Gooden.
"Well everybody's going to have to play better than they did last year," Langford said. "I mean that's 20 points and 10 rebounds that's gone, and Boschee's 3 or 4 threes a game are gone, so everybody's going to have to step up and do that much more. So I'm just going to do my part."
With fellow sophomores Aaron Miles and Wayne Simien, Langford was fortunate to be on a Final Four team in his freshman campaign. But Langford wants to quickly avenge the bitter taste of losing to Maryland in the National Semifinals.
"If we weren't on top, we'd be pushing to get there, so if you're already there, then why not maintain it," Langford said. "Getting to the Final Four this past season, obviously everyone expects us to get back."
With the loss of Gooden to the NBA Draft and Boschee to graduation, Langford was quick to take the initiative this offseason to better himself physically and help make up for the lost production.
This summer, he worked on getting stronger, increased his vertical a couple inches and put on about five pounds.
"I really worked on handling the ball a lot more, catching and shooting, being a complete player instead of just slashing to the basket." Langford said.

for the sophomore guard, last season started with a peep, and ended up with a bang by averaging 10.8 points per game in the NCAA Tournament and being named to the NCAA Midwest Regional All-Tournament team. Langford wants to turn last spring's bang into a sonic boom this year.
"I think those last couple of games were real good for me, but I just want to go off of those two games, and I want to show that those two games weren't a fluke." Langford said. "I feel like I could have played even better in those two games, so I just want to be able to play like that continuously throughout the whole year."

Kansas native Simien could fill Drew's shoes
This season, sophomore Wayne Simien is expected to do something many boys growing up in Kansas only dream about
— step onto James Naismith court in Allen Fieldhouse as one of Rov Williams' starting five.
Simien. a 6-
PETER MURRAY
Simien, a6-foot-9 forward from Leavenworth, is expected to replace former Jayhawk Drew Gooden as one of the team's two player.
"Last year I went in knowing that I'd just be a role player, but this year I'm going in as one of the main guys," he said. "It's still going to be Kirk (Hinrich) and Nick (Collison)'s show, but my role is definitely going to change drastically."
Simien said although Gooden, now with the Memphis Grizzlies, would be impossible to replace, he was ready for the challenge.
Simien
Williams has said Simien would have the opportunity to step forward as a team leader. He said his average of 8.1 points and 5.3 rebounds in 15.3 minutes of action last season proved he could likely fill the void left by Gooden.
"Nick and Kirk know that they're going to be asked to shoot more, but Wayne's going to be expected to do more." Williams said. "That's not a burden, that's a tremendous opportunity for him. He's healthier than he's ever been. He's taken that weight and redistributed it. He's a powerful young man."
Simien spent the summer preparing for his new role by attending camps and working out individually and with his

high school coach. Larry Hogan Simien is listed at 255 pounds and is carrying more muscle than last year. He said he added the extra weight to help him become a stronger competitor down low.
"I'm carrying a lot more weight this season because I'm going to play a lot more minutes," he said. "People are saying we might not be as deep and if that happens I wanted to come in as physically prepared as I could."
Wayne Simien Kansas basketball forward
After sitting out the first five games of last season because of arthroscopic surgery on his left knee, Simien saw action in Kansas' final 32 games. He said the experience he gained in those games, subbing for Gooden and Collison, would help him become a major contributor to the 2003-2004 squad.
"Being able to play behind Drew and Nick last year really helped me," he said. "Learning a lot from those guys, I think that's really going to help me this year, stepping up and playing more of a role and contribute a lot more than just a few minutes or when someone got in foul trouble or was tired. I think that's really going to help me a lot."
Collison said he thought Simien could take over for

Gooden, but the transition would take some getting used to.
"I think Wayne is a really good player. He is a lot different than Drew is," Collison said. "We are all three different players, so we will find a way to get it done. I don't see any problem at all playing with Wayne. We will get to the point by mid-season that we are really comfortable playing with each other."
Simien said he knew what he had to do to make an impression on the team this season. Consistency as a player, he said, was his top priority.
"Last year I would have a really good game and then a couple games down the road you might not notice I was out there," he said. "I'm just trying to work on that, going back to the fundamentals and small things."

Player overcomes nervousness for better game
By Kelly McNearney kmcnearney@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Go ahead — laugh at Mike Lee. His teammates do.
The sophomore is the brunt of most jokes made by fellow guards Jeff Hawkins and Aaron Miles.
"The one we pick on the most is Mike Lee," Hawkins said. "He's the one we always tease, non-stop. We just make up stuff sometimes and have the whole locker room laughing at him."
Lee said it's all in good fun, though.
"I think it's because I talk the most so a lot of it I bring on myself," Lee said.
mates and focus on proving himself to his coaches this year.
Lee will have to ignore the heckling from his jokester team-
Lee
Coach Roy Williams needs his bench players to step up and fill in for his
five starters, three of whom are guards. Williams said he would consider Lee as a possible candidate for more minutes on the court.
Lee said he was rushed during games last year, and the game pace was too fast for him.
"Coach helped me a little bit and we talked about it a lot in a couple of games last year — why I would get the ball and be nervous
and just ran around like a chicken with my head cut off. Lee said.
He said his biggest improvement since last year was his composition. Lee said he was more comfortable with the level of play and the speed of practices and games. He worked on learning to slow down and react better to the game.
"I was just so nervous and worried that I was going to do something wrong that I would just do more wrong." Lee said.
Lee said coming off the bench was a difficult change for him. He said at this level he could not get away with some of his old habits.
"Coming off the bench, there's no room for error," Lee said. "You don't have time to come in and then turn the ball over. More than
nerves, it's telling yourself, 'Don't mess up. Don't mess up.'
Battling against Hawkins and freshman walk-on Stephen Vinson for playing time will be a challenge that Lee said he would embrace. He believed the secret to earning more playing time was improving his defense.
"The best thing I could do is play defense and be the best defender I can and run the floor when we get the ball and keep a positive attitude out there." Lee said. "You can always play defense. Your shot might not always be there or anything else, but defense doesn't take a night off."
Leb said he had changed and grown up since last year. He said he hadn't suffered the homesickness
that plagued him last year. He said he was more at home at Kansas and with his team, and he had finally gotten used to the crazy crowd support that Kansas fans offer.
He also noticed more attention from college women.
"I don't know why, because I haven't looked any different for the past 18 or 19 years of my life," Lee said. "Nothing's changed but the territory I guess."
"That's the pretty boy right there," Lee said, pointing at Hawkins. "They say he looks like Puff Daddy. Jeff is probably the ladies' man on the team. He attracts a lot of girls."
Evidently, Lee can still dish it out as well as he can take it.

Aaron Miles looks to be dominant force

Chris Zerbe couldn't understand why the pizza delivery man wanted to talk to him, especially at one in the morning. But he got up, and went down to the hotel lobby to sort the whole thing out anyway.
"We looked out our peep hole and saw him walking down the hall," Aaron Miles said. "That was so funny, but that's just something that we do every once in a while."
The comedic team of Miles and

background — hit it offright away when they came to Kansas last fall. And the guards quickly established themselves as the team'spranksters—usually at the expense and annoyance of their teammates.
"He and leff are a bunch of little clowns," Kirk Hinrich said. "They're always messing around."
Still, he told reporters there were times last season when he could have used a little assurance. That would be the biggest difference between freshman Miles
In between pranks, Miles kept busy as the starting point guard for the jayhawks.
He led the team in assists with an average 6.8 per game. His 252 assists on the season set a new school record for freshmen. He also recorded the second-most steals by a freshman with 60.
"I'd like for him to become even more dominant defensively." Williams said. "In the Maryland game when we came back from 21 down, or whatever it was, with 5 and a half minutes

The largest improvement in confidence and play occurs between the freshman and sophomore years. Roy Williams said.
"Confidence is the biggest thing in everything you do, I think," Miles said. "You have to believe in yourself. Last year I believed in myself, but I kind of doubted myself every once in a while."

Big 12 coaches, players look to NCAA tourney
The Associated Press
DALLAS — Despite losing 31 key starters, players and coaches of the Big 12 Conference are looking to make another showing at the NCAA Tournament this spring.
"I do not see the conference being weak in any way, shape or form," said Oklahoma coach Sherri Coale, who led the Sooners to the league's first showing in the Final Four. "There will be a changing of the guard in terms of personnel, the people who lead teams."
Oklahoma, which lost to Connecticut in the national championship game, lost two-time AllAmerican Stacey Dales. The Sooners are picked to finish fourth in the league in a preseason conference coach's poll, after finishing No. 2 in the nation last year.
Texas coach Jody Conradt said
she believed the talent of this year's newcomers leaguewide would offset inexperience.
"We are one of the youngest conferences this year, yet we still have enough talent to be competitive game in and game out with any other conference," Conradt said.
Coale and Conradt were among the Big 12 coaches and players who discussed the caliber of the league as well as their championship hopes Wednesday at the Big 12 Women's Basketball Media Day.
While other teams discussed the players lost in the last year, Texas A&M coach Peggie Gillom said the Aggies could have an advantage with four returning starters.
"I think there is a window of opportunity for us," Gillom said. "The Big 12 lost a lot of great players. So I think the opportunity is there for us and other teams to get
into the top brackets."
Kansas State goes into the season picked to finish second in the conference. The Wildcats have lost only one starter and boast the league's preseason player of the year in center Nicole Ohlde.
"She is one of the most premier post players, not only in the conference, but in the country," Kansas State coach Deb Patterson said. "She has tremendous talent and is well-deserved in all the preseason honors she has been receiving."
Iowa State, picked in the preseason poll to finish sixth, lost All-Big 12 center Angie Welle and forward Tracy Gahan.
"The only thing that never seems to change is Texas Tech. They're always good. Death, taxes and Texas Tech," Cyclones coach Bill Fennelly said. "Kansas State, Texas and Texas Tech will be in a lot of preseason Top-10 rankings. Anytime you have two
"The only thing that never seems to change is Texas Tech. They're always good. Death, taxes and Texas Tech."
schools in the league that are realistic Final Four contenders, the league can't be down overall. I think at the end of the year, our league will be where it always is—one of the best in the country."
Many teams in the league had hoped an appearance in the Final Four would establish the league's place as a national powerhouse but find themselves facing questions — this time about the lack of experience.

"I obviously think it is the best conference in the country from
top to bottom," Texas Tech coach Marsha Sharp said. "I think we have proven that over several years and not just a one-year stance last year.
"I think the last thing to do was to get a team to the highest level of playing in the country and Oklahoma took care of that for us last year. I think some people finally decided on the national level that the Big 12 was for real."
Texas Tech was picked this year to win the Big 12 championship title in the preseason poll.
Despite lower expectations for Oklahoma, Coale believes her team can still be a contender.
"We do not look at our team and say it was a very special thing and treasure that the rest of our lives because it may never happen again," said Coale, who expects to be a Final Four contender every year. "We understand how special it is, but we have an expectation to get back there."
Bulked-up Ford means trouble for Longhorn opponents this year
The Associated Press
DALLAS — Shortly after Texas' heartbreaking two-point loss to Oregon in the NCAA tournament's round of 16 last season, Rick Barnes' precocious freshman point guard put his arm around the coach and made a pledge.
"Coach, I promise that I'm going to be better in every area next year," said T.J. Ford, as he and Barnes trudged off to the team bus in the bowels of Milwaukee's Kohl Center.
Seven months later, Ford appears to have delivered on his promise, looking as if he added at least 10 more pounds of muscle at Thursday's Big 12 men's basketball media day. Ford was even sporting a brand-new hairdo, a closely-cropped hairstyle as opposed to his previous choice of neatly braided cornrows.
The 5-foot-10 sophomore grinned when Barnes jokingly asked if he would take off his clingy, cream-colored sweater and show off his new physique.
"Guys were taking advantage of my weakness," Ford said. "So I kind of bulked up on them."
A bigger Ford could mean big things for the Longhorns, who return all five starters from last year's 22-12 team. They'll need Ford to again run the show, using his remarkable quickness and highly-developed court instincts to lead Texas, which is looking for its first conference title since 1995.
"It is amazing being around somebody who does not have to score 20 or 30 points," said Brandon Mouton, a junior guard who is the Longhorn's leading returning scorer, "but can dish out 12 assists and maybe even grab 10 rebounds."
At Thursday's media event, Ford's name came up several times when players and coaches were asked to pick out the Big 12's top point guard.
Ford shrugged off all the praise, insisting he has a lot more to prove this season.
"I need to improve my overall game," he said. "My team will look to me this year like they did
"This summer, I knew I had to hit the weightroom and get stronger for this team to get better."
T.J. Ford
Texas point guard
last year. Now I am just trying to be more vocal and trying to be a leader on the floor."
Ford was the first freshman in NCAA history to lead the nation in assists (8.3 a game) and developed into a much more consistent shooting threat as the season progressed. But he battled nagging injuries all season and sometimes wore down in the final minutes of tight games.
He played at about 150 pounds last year, often getting screened out of defensive plays by bigger opponents. On Thursday, Ford admitted that his disdain for the weight room probably was responsible for most of his few on-court struggles.
"There were times that I really got tired," Ford said, keeping his head down and scribbling on a note pad. "This summer, I knew I had to hit the weight room and get stronger for this team to get better."
Barnes said Ford had shown signs of improvement in all phases of the game, particularly defense. Ford also recorded a 44 1/2-inch vertical jump in offseason drills.
"He really did embrace a conditioning program," the coach said. "He never really got a chance to be totally healthy last year."
Now that Ford has picked up a few pounds, Barnes is already lobbying the guard to become more of a consistent offensive threat. Ford averaged just under 11 points a game, shooting about 41 percent from the field.
"I think he needs to score double-digit points and I've talked to him about that," Barnes said. "TJ. needs to shoot the ball for us. He is a guy that truly likes to pass the ball."
Tech basketball coach sarcastic at media day
DALLAS — Texas Tech coach Bob Knight was at his feisty best during the Red Raiders' Thursday morning interview session at the Big 12 men's basketball media day.
The second-year coach started off innocuously enough, talking about how he handles on-court mistakes by his players. Then, he was asked about the quality of point guards in the Big 12. From that point on, Knight seemed a little agitated.
A sampling of sound bites:
Knight on point guards:
"I'm not really sure that I know what a point guard is.
I've never had a point guard because I don't know what the hell it means. Does he stay out there on 'the point?' Where is 'the point?'"
Knight on the development of his players: "It adds another phrase to my vocabulary. 'Where the hell were you last year?'"
Knight on the potential of freshman John Ofoegbu: "If I could do that, I should be in a high position in the Bush Administration."

Burras travels across the country lead to Kansas
By Zack Hemenway
correspondence@kansan.com
Kansan correspondent
Aquanita Burras has lived in places as diverse as Alaska and Arizona.
A self-described "military brat," the Kansas women's basketball team's sophomore guard spent her formative years on a cross-country odyssey with stops in New Mexico, North Carolina and Louisiana, among others.
Her basketball career has only added to her travels. After attending high school in Fairbanks, Alaska, Burras was signed, sealed and almost delivered to Idaho State University until the school's coach left for another job. Scrambling to change her plans, Burras got a call from Central Arizona Community College and accepted its offer rather than take a break from playing.
FREDERICK G. DAVIS
Burras
"Going to Arizona was great for me because it meant I wasn't losing a year," she said.
Burras was named second-team allconference and made yet another move, heading to Kansas to join in the rebuilding process. She said it was an easy decision.
"I love the coaches; I love the players, and I love the campus," Burras said.
AQUINTA BURRAS - #44
Sophomore Guard **Height:** 5-foot-9 Hometown: Fairbanks, Alaska
There is one aspect of Lawrence Burras definitely does not love. In an upset of Kansas-over-Oklahoma proportions, she said she preferred the weather in Alaska to the schizophrenic Midwestern winter.
"The weather here doesn't know what it wants to do," she said with a laugh.
Burras said the 24 hours of daylight in the Alaskan summer was her favorite part of living there.
"The sun goes down just for a quick second and then it pops up," she said. "You could go out and play at three in the morning, as long as the neighbors didn't wake up and yell, 'Put that ball away!'"
Burras is one of eight newcomers hoping to resurrect the program after last season's 5-25 record. The roster includes six freshmen and five sophomores, with only one returning player with more than 10 career starts — sophomore Blair Waltz. Burras will be competing for time at the two-guard slot.
"I think everyone's going to get the same opportunity, as long as everyone puts in the same amount of work," she said. "It's going to be a hard decision for
"I'm a shooter. They know that I can take control and that's what they like about me. If they want a big shot, I think I can do that."

coach."
With only one proven scoring threat returning, Burras thinks she can fill the team's need for players who can step up and put points on the scoreboard.
"I'm a shooter," she said. "They know that I can take control, and that's what they like about me. If they want a big shot, I think I can do that."
Coach Marian Washington agreed with this self-assessment, describing Burras as "a strong athlete who has the ability to score."
After last year's 0-16 showing in Big 12 play, this season is an important one for the future of Kansas women's basketball. The performance of Burras and her fellow newcomers will tell fans what to expect of the team for the next few years. Burras approaches this tall order with confidence.
"The future? We call ourselves the 'Turnaround.'" she said. "We're going to turn around the program."

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN = 9B
Confident sophomore a leading lady on court
By Doyle Murphy
dmurphy@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
It's easy to forget Blair Waltz is a sophomore.
Sophomores usually aren't the team's mouthpiece at press conferences.
Soph mores usually don't guide the team throug h workouts and practices.
Sopho mores usually aren't the most experienced players on the team.
MARCIA D'ALBERTA GILLIER
Waltz
Aren't sophomores usually still learning the ropes?
Maybe so, still, there was Waltz, sitting in front of a room of reporters at the Big 12 Conference's media day, Wednesday.
She fielded questions as if she had been doing it for years, and the confident smile rarely left her face.
she usually is a leader.
It's not unusual for Waltz, because — regardless of her age she usually is a leader.
On a team without a single senior and eight newcomers, Waltz is the leading returning player this season. She played in 26 of 30 games last year and started 14.
She missed four games after suffering a stress fracture in her right foot.
"Blair has got to stay healthy for us. She left here after a summer session."
Marion Washington Kansas women's basketball coach
Returning healthier and stronger this season will make Waltz even more of factor this season, Kansas coach Marian Washington said in her annual preseason press conference.
"Blair has got to stay healthy for us." Washington said. "She left here after a summer session. Went to New York to work out, worked out with a professional there, and came back in good shape."
She is one of the only Kansas players with starting experience, and if you think the pressure will be too great for a young player to bear, you need only to spend a few minutes speaking with Waltz.
"I strive for that," she said.
"That's what I want to be. I want to be looked to as a leader."
She has had the training.
As a player at Blue Valley North High School in Overland Park, Waltz led four teams to the Kansas state playoffs, winning the title twice. She was selected to the All-state first team twice.

And the basketball court wasn't the only place Waltz excelled. In fact, it's not easy to find anything she's not good at.

She was recruited by Division I schools to play volleyball, softball and basketball. In the classroom, Waltz, an international business major, earned Jayhawk Scholar honors.
All that success, made the Jayhawks' dismal 2001-02 season even more painful for Waltz.
"That's never, ever going to happen to me again," Waltz said. "I'm going to make sure of it."

The Stockholm, Sweden native plays a hard-nosed, hustling style of basketball reminiscent of the former men's team star.
She dives after every loose ball and seems to save nothing for the next possession.
That work hard, play hard attitude has rubbed off on the other players. It seems to have become the mantra for the entire team.
Kansas coach Marian Washington told reporters that new attitude is the first step in returning the Jayhawks to prominence.
"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," Washington said. Menguc couldn't agree more.
"The way we've been working on and off the court has been great. I mean compared to the last few years I feel like this really is the year for us."

"The way we've been working on and off the court has been great," Mengic said. "I mean compared to the last few years I feel like this really is the year for us."
That is a big change from last season. Menguc said the strain of losing hurt the chemistry of the team.
"It feels like someone blows out the fire in you every time, after every loss," she said. "After a season like that all you can do is keep working harder, because you know it's going to be better times."
Her competitive nature made the losses painful, but it did not stop Menguez from working hard.
After providing a defensive presence off the bench for the majority of last season, she finally worked her way into the starting lineup for the last three games of the year.
But the on the court competitions never become personal to the fiery point guard.
"I can honestly say that every person on the team is great," she said. "You don't have to push us

Newcomers should bring more victories to team
By Doyle Murphy
dmurphy@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas women's basketball team is ready for a new season. There will be eight new players, at least three new starters and one new attitude.
That's good news for a team that suffered through the worst season in the history of Kansas women's basketball. The Jayhawks finished 0-16 in the Big 12 Conference and 5-25 overall last season.
The Jayhawks were in need of a change, and sophomore guard/forward Blair Waltz said that was just what they got. The
youthful jayhawks have a brand new feel, she said.
"This team is so much fun to be with," Waltz said at a press conference. "I look forward to being with these girls everyday. It's a blast."
Waltz is with the girls almost every day.
Starting five days after the end of last season, she and the other returning players headed to the weight room to prepare for this year.
That five-day vacation was the only break the players allowed themselves throughout the entire offseason.
"I mean we made a statement in the KU weight room because
we worked so hard," Waltz said. "And then with the freshmen coming in, it just added that much more intensity, that much more fun."
The influx of new players will be a key to turning the Jayhawks around, coach Marian Washington told reporters.
"We have found ourselves, over the past, able to bring in the kind of players that not only kept us competitive, but kept us one of the top teams in the nation," Washington said. "We have to get back to that, and I think we have got a great start with this young club."
On some teams those sweeping changes in personnel — five

returners and eight newcomers could be a cancer on the group's chemistry, but junior guard Leila Menguc said the situation had
been ideal.
"You can tell in practice the way everyone is cheering for each other, pushing each other on," she said. "It's pretty awesome."
But it hasn't been all fun and games for the jayhawks.
Freshman point guard Erica Hallman tore the anterior cruciate ligament in her right knee a week ago, and will be out for at least four weeks.
Hallman, who was selected Miss Kentucky Basketball for the 2001-2002 season,was considered a strong candidate for the starting position at point guard.
When Hallman committed to.
Kansas, it was not a popular decision in her hometown of Covington. Ky., especially during basketball season.
She said that even when the team wasn't doing well and friends were questioning her decision, she had never doubted that Kansas was the place for her.
"It was like there is nothing I can do now, back at home while our season was going on, but I was like I have to make a difference some how." Hallman said about her thoughts during last season.
"I believe in coach and the system," she said.
Cowgirls kick off season

STILLWATÉR, Okla. — As Halloween approached, most towns saw a lot more black and orange. At Oklahoma State, those colors are commonplace, and those colors may be all that remains the same from last years' Cowgirl basketball program.
The players are new, the coaches are new and the expectations are new.
The Cowgirls head into the 2002-2003 season with first-year coach Julie Goodenough, Goodenough brings 10 years of experience from NCAA Division III Hardin-Simmons.
coach Amy Gusso.
While at HSU, Goodenough moved the program from NAIA to become an NCAA program and still managed a .777 career win percentage. The only returner on the Cowgirl coaching staff is second-year assistant
"Everything is different," said Oklahoma State starting point guard Chantoya Hawkins. "We got new coaches, a lot of new players and a whole different attitude — there is more enthusiasm this year."
The Cowgirls return four players this season and welcome eight new players. Among the new players include five freshmen and a transfer from Oregon — guard Catherine Turner.
"Over half our players are new," said Cowgirl junior center Trisha Skibbe. "We need to realize that we play in one of the toughest conferences, and we'll adjust well if we do that."
Last year's Cowgirl team went 16-15 and posted a 10-4 mark at Gallagher-Iba Arena. Oklahoma State went 7-9 in Big 12 Conference play, which placed them No.8 in the Big 12.
July 2, Phylesha Whaley was named to the Oklahoma State staff. Whaley was a former Big 12 player of the year for Oklahoma.
Even the program's director of basketball operations is new. On
Out of the players who stayed on the Cowgirls team from last year, three of the four returners are seniors.
Chantoya Hawkins, Thia Willis and Shelby Hutchins all started for the Cowgirls last year. Hawkins finished third on the team in points with an average of 8.4 per game and was first on the team in steals with 47.
Oklahoma. State welcomes back leading scorer and second leading rebounder in junior center Trisha Skibbe.
Skibble averaged 15.6 points and 6.8 boards a game.
With all of these changes, the Cowgirls don't have much time until their first game on Nov. 22, against Oral Roberts and their first exhibition game on 7 p.m. Nov. 6, against TJ Sokol at Gallagher-Iba.
Nebraska women add depth
By Michael Bruntz
Daily Nebraska via U-Wire
University of Nebraska
LINCOLN, Neb. — At least they have subs.
Fall workouts have yielded three walk-ons for the Nebraska women's basketball team, ensuring Coach Connie Yori won't have to look down her bench at empty chairs when the exhibition season opens Nov. 10.
The Cornhuskers added more backcourt depth with the additions of sophomore guards Jessie Runty and Lacey Hanson. Freshman Kala Sledge will also provide Yori with options at the guard positions.
Yori said having the walk-ons was a necessity based on the status of Nebraska's roster.
"It's not an ideal situation to have five healthy scholarship athletes," Yori said. "It's important that we have walk-ons that may be able to contribute in games."
Headlines had been splashed across newspapers throughout the
state about the team's lack of depth. The publicity caused Sledge and Hanson to contact Yori.
Sledge said the stories had piqued her interest, and she had decided to give Yori a call.
"It was kind of a last minute thing," said Sledge who played at Omaha Westside and had originally planned on going to Iowa Western Community College. "Nebraska was always somewhere I wanted to go, and I always liked Coach Yori, so I couldn't ask for anything more."
Runty's journey to walking on was a little more roundabout.
As a high school senior at Millard North. Runty signed a letter of intent to play with Pacific but ended up not attending the California school.
She enrolled at Nebraska Wesleyan University but didn't play basketball last year. Runty then came to Nebraska this fall and walked on a short time later.
Yori said Runty was a player with the chance to pitch in for the
Yori said Runty would have to wait until second semester before she appeared in games for Nebraska.
Huskers.
Hanson came to the Huskers after having already been on campus for a year. The sophomore from Ralston had hoped to walk on the year before but waited until this year when she contacted Assistant Coach Amy Stephens about a sport.
Because she signed a letter of intent with Pacific, Runty is still in need of a release from her scholarship commitment. NCAA transfer rules will keep her out of Nebraska's early non conference games.
Hanson said she was just happy to be in the program after being away from the court for a year.
"It's been incredible going to the practices and being in the program," Hanson said.
"She is a person who has the potential to help this team," Yori said.

Transfers rebuild Kansas State team
The Associated Press
MANHATTAN — Jarrett Hart calls his arrival at Kansas State a fresh start.
But the 6-foot-4 junior college transfer from Arkansas-Fort Smith isn't alone.
Kansas State coach Jim Wooldridge lost his entire backcourt from a year ago and now has three players with little or no Division I experience at both guard positions.
With forward Gilson Dejesus as the Wildcats' only returning player with experience at guard from last season's seventh place Big 12 team, Wooldridge is hoping that Hart, Tim Ellis and point guard Frank Richards all junior college transfers have fast and painless transitions.
"Those players will play major minutes and that's a lot to ask of new players," Wooldridge said Wednesday at the team's annual media day. "We find ourselves faced with some real challenges. They'll have to overachieve in order for us to move up the ladder in the Big 12."
Hart, a NJCAA third team All-American, averaged 19.4 points and 5.5 rebounds at Arkansas-Fort Smith.
His college basketball career had started well before then, however. Hart appeared in six games for Oklahoma as a true freshman before his life took a turn for the worse.
He got a bruised kidney and was forced to sit the bench. Then, his cousin, Garfield Parker, was killed in a car accident during the year. As a result, Hart quit the Sooners and moved back home to Little Rock, Ark.
"We were basically like
brothers," Hart said. "It was a big setback. I had to fly home and be with my family. That was a learning experience for me."
Now, Hart is expected to be Kansas State's starting guard and he hopes he can bring a winning attitude to a Wildcat team that has been picked to finish 11th in the Big 12.
"I just want to win," Hart said. "We're going through a learning process. We have the talent to finish in the upper half of the Big 12, but we look at this season as a challenge."
The Wildcats return three starters: center Pervis Pasco, forward Matt Siebrandt and forward Quentin Buchanan. Pasco, who made the conference's All-Newcomer team, averaged 12.1 points and 8.4 rebounds.
But Wooldridge admits that the loss of point guard and leading scorer Larry Reid to graduation and the loss of starting shooting guard Nick Williams, who left in the spring for personal reasons, will hurt.
He said he's counting on Hart to be a scorer.
"He's the smartest basketball player on this team," Wooldridge said. "He has the ability to make people better around home. He's the kind of guy you have to tell to score more. That's where he will have to adapt."
Wooldridge, who has improved the Wildcats from last in the conference to seventh in two years, continues to push his team to make strides.
"We've done some positive things here," he said. "But we're still working on the foundation. If you don't have that, you can't move forward."
K-State expects returners' success
MANHATTAN—This season, the surprise factor for Kansas State is over.
The Associated Press
Before the Wildcats' Sweet 16 appearance in the NCAA tournament and fourth place finish in the Big 12 Conference last season, coach Deb Patterson's team was coming off a 12-16 season in which Kansas State finished last in the Big 12.
With three freshmen and one sophomore starting, even Patterson didn't know what to expect. Now, the expectations are different — much different.
The Wildcats (26-7, 12-4 in the Big 12 last season) finished 2002 ranked 11th, the school's highest finish ever, and reached the NCAA tournament for the first time since 1987.
And with four starters returning, many expect even more from the young Wildcats.
"We hope we can build on the momentum we generated last year," Patterson said Wednesday at the team's annual media day. "The challenge now is consistency. We're learning to become what the great programs are all about. Our players are very focused on making that happen."
Big 12 coaches have picked the Wildcats to finish second in the conference behind Texas Tech. Junior center Nicole Ohlde was picked as the coaches' preseason favorite to be the Big 12's player of the year. Ohlde and sophomore forward Kendra Wecker are candidates for the Naismith Award given to the nation's best player.
"We're extremely excited about where we find ourselves in the preseason polls," Patterson said. "That's something we take pride in and consider a great challenge."
The hype has already made an
imprint on the team's fan base, as well.
With 18 days left before Kansas State's season opener against Ball State, the ticket office has sold a school record 6,500 season tickets — 5,000 more than last season.
Patterson isn't concerned that her young players will be overwhelmed by lofty preseason expectations. Although Kansas State starts four sophomores and has no seniors, Patterson is confident that they are focused on everyday goals rather than long-term ones.
"Definitely, it's going to be a lot different," sophomore guard Laurie Koehn said. "We don't have that element of surprise anymore. But that's good because you have that respect. Last year, there were a lot of freshmen and we didn't know what to expect. This year we're a little more comfortable."
Ohlde led the Wildcats last sea
son with an average of 17.9 points and 7.7 rebounds per game. Wecker averaged 16.4 points and 7.8 rebounds a game.
Koehn is the Wildcats' only returning starter in the backcourt. She averaged 17.7 points a game last season and led the nation in 3-pointers with 122.
Still, coach Patterson doesn't expect everything to be smooth sailing. The Wildcats lost starting guard Kristin Rethman to graduation.
And with sophomore point guard Kari Hanson out with an undisclosed injury, the Wildcats have only two guards with experience. Koehn and sophomore guard Chelsea Domenico.
"It's very open-ended at the guard spots," Patterson said. "Chelsea is someone we will be looking at. There are a lot of unanswered questions, but I'm having a good time working through it."
Clemons stars in Tigers' intrasquad game; Snyder pleased with play of newcomers
Bv Will Hall
By W.Hinman
The Manater via U-Wire
University of Missouri
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Not too many people will mistake Ricky Clemons for Shawn Kemp.
Despite the differences of about 9 inches,125 pounds and 15 kids. Clemons did his best Rain Man impression on Saturday when he tossed the ball in the air, caught it off the bounce and slammed it before the Black and Gold game on Saturday.
Clemons said he thought the play caught many in attendance by surprise.
This is not the only time Clemons made an impression on Saturday, as he made several highlight-reel plays on his way to 21 points and a 43-56 Black victory.
Clemons said his high points total was representative of his mentality.
"Nobody thought I could dunk because I'm short," Clemons said.
"That's just how I play," Clemons said. "If I see an opening, I am just going to be aggressive and take it."
Coach Quin Snyder said Tiger fans got a good look at Clemons' talent in the game.
"He showed some of the things he brings to our team in terms of being able to get other people and, obviously, convert for himself," Snyder said.
Clemons, a junior college transfer, was not the only newcomer to contribute Saturday.
Freshman center Kevin Young scored six points and grabbed seven rebounds.
Snyder said Young had several qualities that allowed him to contribute.
"Kevin had a little bit of a tough time converting early in the game, but he is methodically relentless," Snyder said. "He just keeps coming, and he's got great hands."
Young said he still had a lot to work on.
"I'm still trying to find myself out there," Young said.
However, Young also said there was no question whether he
was ready to play in the Big 12 Conference.
"I really think I am." Young said.
"When I get in the game, my teammates know I am going to battle."
Freshman Jimmy McKinney added five points, three rebounds and two assists.
Snyder said working at the point guard position had allowed McKinney to improve as a player.
The least heralded newcomer is Rob Iohnson, a new walk-on.
However, Snyder described his dive for the ball in the second half as his favorite play of the game.
"I thought it brought the Gold team back," Snyder said. "He might replace Justin Gage as our diver."

Kansas basketball exhibition opener puts sophomores on display p.1B
Donation to aid softball field project
By Levi Chronister
Ichronster@kansan.com
Kansan sports editor
Tracy Bunge was a college junior when Jayhawk Field, the current Kansas softball stadium, was built in 1985.
Bunge, now the Kansas softball coach, said the facility was great when it was constructed. Times have changed in the past 17 years, though, as other schools have built newer and better stadiums.
"When you have 400 or 500 seats and half of those are blocked views and you have no bathrooms and no permanent
concessions," Bunge said, "There are a lot of problems out there."
Cheryl Womack, the chief executive officer of VCW Holding Company, LLC, in Kansas City, Mo., may have
the solution for those problems.
C. M. HOLLINGTON
Coach Tracy Bunge
Womack, a 1975 graduate of the University of Kansas, has pledged $2 million to help build a new softball stadium at the University. Her pledge will pay for half of
a $4 million plan that would create a new stadium where Jayhawk Field is now southwest of Allen Fieldhouse. It would also include permanent facilities such as locker rooms and training rooms.
"I think it's going to be a huge positive for us." Bunge said. "We're extremely excited about the commitment the Athletics Department has made by doing this for us."
Pending approval from the Kansas Board of Regents, the field will be named for Womack's father, Demostenes Arrocha, a Panamanian immigrant.
Part of the construction project will
include turning the field around by moving home plate to where center field is located. Bunge said the switch would be beneficial because it would put fans' backs to the wind, turn the field into a hitters' park and allow the soccer team to use the locker rooms.
Half of the money necessary for the planned renovations still needs to be raised, but Bunge said she saw the donation as a jump start into the planning process. She plans to begin breaking ground as soon as the season is over in May and to have the facility ready for March 2004.
Junior catcher Dani May would welcome a new field.
"Living here in Lawrence for 10 years, I've seen so many games on that field," said May, a Lawrence High graduate. "To know that possibly next season I'll be able to play in a brand-new stadium in Lawrence is just an awesome feeling."
Bunge said she hoped Womack's donation would be the first of similar contributions to other Kansas women's athletic teams including the soccer, tennis and rowing teams.

Chancellor's crib creates connection for students
By Michelle Burhenn
mburhenn@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
When an older man came to the door of Watkins Scholarship Hall last month, Rachel Hynson didn't understand why he was inviting her hall's residents to jump on the moon walk, a carnival-style balloon house he had rented for his grandchildren.
It wasn't until after the Dillsburg, Pa., sophomore nodded politely and the man walked away that a friend told her that he was her neighbor, Chancellor Robert Hemenway
Hemenway is the seventh chancellor to live in the Outlook, home to University of Kansas chancellors since 1939. The chancellor's residence is next to Miller and Watkins scholarship halls, and Hemenway and hall residents said his on-campus residence allowed opportunities for interaction.
Hemenway said living among students at the Outlook, 1532 Lilac Lane, had definite advantages and helped him serve students.
Hemenway has served as chancellor of the University since June 1995. The Outlook is his first campus home, but he said the idea of living on campus appealed to him when he was applying for the job.
He said living on campus didn't have many disadvantages, but he did pay more attention to the appearance of the house.
"I was kind of looking forward to it, to be honest," he said.
"You feel more of a part of things when you're on campus."
"Occasionally you'll get a prank or a note on the front door," he said. "But most of the time people are respectful."
Hemenway's home is not only a private residence but also an extension of his work and office. The second floor and basement are the private quarters, used by Hemenway, his wife and his 14-year-old son, Arna. The entry level of the house is public.
"Yes, it's a home, but it's also a meeting place for people of the University," he said.
Hemenway said students sometimes stopped by his home for a visit.
"We always enjoy meeting students," he said. "We invite students to come by for events."
He opens the home up to guests for a holiday tree-lighting ceremony and to graduates for a lunch on commencement day. He said he wanted all students to stop by the house before they graduated.
Hemenway is the host of many events at the Outlook.
SEE CHANCELLOR ON PAGE 3A
The Origin of the Outlook
The Outlook was built in 1912 by J.B. Watkins, and his wife, Elizabeth Miller Watkins, with the idea that it would become the home of future chancellors after the couple died.
Elizabeth Miller Watkins, who also provided finances for the building of Miller and Watkins scholarship halls, lived at the Outlook for 28 years. Deane W. Malott was the first chancellor to live in the house.
The first floor is used for official University of Kansas entertaining and includes a central hall and five rooms. The second floor, where the chancellor and his family live, has eight rooms.
The furnishings on the first floor belong to the University, but the chancellor furnishes the second floor.

Carrs brothers convicted, may receive death penalty
WICHITA — Jurors found brothers Reginald and Jonathan Carr guilty of four counts of capital murder for killing four people two years ago in a soccer field.
The Carrs were convicted yesterday for the Dec. 15, 2000, deaths of: Aaron Sander, 29; Brad Heyka, 27; Jason Befort, 26; and Heather Muller, 25. Befort's girlfriend, then a 25-year-old teacher, survived being shot in the head and ran naked through the snow for a mile to seek help. The victims had been forced to engage in sexual acts and the women were repeatedly raped before being shot.
The Carrs were also convicted of first-degree murder for the Dec. 11, 2000, shooting of Wichita symphony cellist Ann Walenta.
Reginald Carr, 24, and Jonathan Carr, 22, who were with their attorneys as the verdicts were read, did not show any emotion, although Reginald Carr shook his head as he was convicted of criminal sodomy.
The same jury will now be asked if the brothers should be sentenced to death or life in prison.
"Without equivocation, without hesitation, I've asked for the death penalty," District Attorney Nola Foulston said.
In making their decision, jurors found aggravating factors that called for the death penalty. They included finding the victims were raped or sodomized, as well as finding the premeditated killing was connected to other killings.
NATION Bush, parties campaign for legislative control
WASHINGTON President Bush barnstormed through four battleground states yesterday in a final appeal for Republicans in Congress
who will vote to make tax cuts permanent and confirm conservative judges. Democrats worked for a strong voter turnout to tilt key races their way.
While Bush and the Democrats focused their energies on dozens of races, Minnesota Senate rivals Walter F. Mondale and Norm Coleman staged the final debate of the campaign season. They were partially upstaged by the governor's appointment of an interim replacement for the late Sen. Paul Wellstone.
In the House, where all 435 seats are at stake today, Democrats need a gain of seven to win control. But it was the Republicans who sounded upbeat — suggesting they could even defy historical trends and pick up a seat or two at Bush's midterm,
The Senate is divided 49-49, with two independents, and the battle for control hinged on six or eight races judged as toss ups or nearly so in the late polls.

Al-Qaida suspects killed; officials seek cause
SANA'A, Yemen—Six al-Qaida suspects were killed, including a top operative of Osama bin Laden, when their car exploded in northwest Yemen, the official Yemen news agency said yesterday.
Tribesmen told The Associated Press they saw a military helicopter hovering overhead shortly before the car exploded, suggesting it may have been attacked from the air.
The Yemeni news agency said initial information indicated the dead included Ali Qaed Sinan al-Harthi, a senior al-Qaida member in Yemen.
It was unclear how the blast happened. Officials first theorized the car blew up because the men were carrying explosives which may have been detonated accidentally.
The explosion took place in an area where al-Qaida is thought to be active.

Students find cheap entertainment
By Louise Stauffer
lstauffer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
When students' last resort for money is the cracks of the couch or pocket change, cheap entertainment allows them to make the most of their low bank balance. Many students have found ways to have fun without needing any money — just creativity.
David Titterington, Prairie Village sophomore, said he headed to Kansas City for low-cost entertainment. He said some clubs charged no cover for jazz concerts on Mondays and Thursdays. He said the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, which has free admission, was a good way to pass the time as well.
When Titterington stays in Lawrence, going to Clinton Lake
is his choice for affordable entertainment.
"Clinton is cheap and fun," he said. "You can go skinny dipping."
Coffee is cheap and more than just a beverage for Chris Romain, Overland Park sophomore. Romain said going out for coffee led to better things, such as hanging out with friends.
Hanging out in or around the shops of downtown Massachusetts Street is a free pastime some students enjoy.
Sarah Bryant, Topeka senior, said she liked to walk down the street without shopping.
"It's just nice to be down there," she said.
Bryant said she could also work out for free at Robinson Center or run on the sidewalks in her neighborhood.
Some students revert to childhood activities when they want to save money.
Collette Pomeroy, Topeka junior, said she frequently played Catch Phrase, a clue and word game.
Robert Brewer, Lawrence sophomore, said that although he didn't have money problems, he preferred to rent movies for cheap entertainment.
Casie Olberding, Topeka junior, said she recently got a Lawrence Public Library card, enabling her to check out books and movies for free.
Olga Songg-Stratton, interlibrary loan coordinator for the public library, said the library loaned out videos in several genres, such as comedy, drama, horror, family, foreign language and silent films. Drama is the largest
Low-budget entertainment is closer than the streets of Lawrence for University students, who have only to look on campus.
section, she said.
Olberding said she liked the new Oread Bookstore in the Kansas Union so much she spent some of her free time there not buying books.
"They have those cozy chairs that look out at the great view," she said. "It's a great place to hang out."
Christopher Entwhistle, Palatine, Ill., freshman, said entertainment provided by Student Union Activities, such as Hawk Nights or bowling at the Jaybowl, was inexpensive and good quality.

Chancellor
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
He once had a late-night visitor ask him a favor during his first year at KU. A student who needed to register to enroll stopped by his house at 10:30 p.m.
"Someone told him the only person that could get him registered was the chancellor." Hemenway said.
Hemenway said he had talked to the student and helped him register the next day.
"I know that student ended up graduating," he said.
Aubrey Montague, Miller Hall resident and Great Bend junior, said having Hemenway as a neighbor didn't affect her college experience much, except when the street was
blocked off for events.
"One of the girls from the hall baked him some cookies in an effort to coerce him to cancel school last year," she said. "I don't know if the cookies were what did it, but he canceled school."
Though she rarely sees her next-door neighbor, Montague said the chancellor's on-campus residence was beneficial for the relationship between students and University administration.
"I think he needs to be around students," she said. "I think it's good for him to be around the students that he's working with, and it's good for us to see that he's a real person."

Nontraditional CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
The 33-year-old St. Croix, Virgin Islands, senior is on his way to completing his undergraduate degree this spring.
He initially ended up in Lawrence because he was stationed here as a supplies sergeant for the ROTC in 1995. He has attended KU part time for the last two years.
Being a nontraditional student brings additional challenges to a college career, Jones said.
"An older student who was in the milli-
tary or has kids has most likely already worked in the real world," he said. "They truly know the importance of a college education and leading by example so that your kids see you doing this. There's that much more pressure."
Support is important for all students, Laura Morgan said, and nontraditional students are no exception.
"The services of our program are tailored to their particular needs." Morgan said.
"I hope they use this time to come find out about what we have to offer."

COMMENTARY
Just kidding. I won't go there for another month, if you guys are lucky.
Actually, I've been kind of freaked out lately because a lot of my old high school friends and people my age are getting married.
COMMENTARY
I remember back in the day when marriage seemed like such a foreign concept and when it was "freaky" when someone got married.
Eric Borja
opinion@hansan.com
Now, we seniors are 21 or 22 and marriage is becoming more of a reality.
At family gatherings and weddings, the question "are you dating anyone?" seems to carry a bit more weight and seriousness.
Then, inevitably, when you tell them you are single it is followed with "oh you've got plenty of time" and "there are plenty of fish in the sea" when in fact they are really thinking what a freak you are for being 21 and single.
But although I wish young, engaged couples nothing but the best, I am secretly skeptical of those who marry young or right out of college.
Call me old fashioned but I am more in the get-settled-get-a-job-get-money-and-get-some-perspective-before-you-get-married train of thought.
In today's culture, making a marriage
work is so much more difficult. Not only do you have to deal with the difficulties of being tied to one person, but you also have to deal with more expensive living, more turbulent and violent times and fitting into the image of an ideal parental unit.
I just assume that people getting married so young are just making rash decisions and often they are going to get divorced.
With so many divorces and public figures having affairs, the state of marriage isn't really as sacred as it used to be.
Take The Bachelor for instance.
The only good thing that comes from the show is that the guy is from the beauhunk capital of the world. Springfield, Mo. The show totally trivializes love and marriage and makes it a competition.
How can any of the girls truly think that they are falling in love with the bachelor? He made out with a girl on a beach
the day after he made out with another girl on the top of the mountain and he tells each girl, with a straight face, that he is falling for them.
When you talk about marriage it inevitably leads to questions. Do you believe in love at first sight? Do you believe there is one single person out there who is meant for you?
If either of those were true, Britney Spears would've returned one of the 400 letters I have sent her with my cologne sprayed on it.
But what's more disappointing is that I haven't fulfilled my one goal in college; to get my M.R. degree.
I am not afraid to admit it. I was hoping to find that overachieving pre-med or business-school scholar girl who would live a prosperous life and let me tagalong for the ride, spending her money, taking care of the children, cleaning up the house, and having dinner ready whenever she would come home from a long day at work.
That girl who is the magical mix of Elisabeth Shue from The Karate Kid and Cameron Diaz from There's Something About Mary.
Until I find that perfect lady I will have to keep writing Britney.

SUVs threaten the environment, safety on the road
I'm sure you've heard this before so I won't elaborate. Rather, I wish to raise another point: safety.
I am not the first to raise concerns about sport utility vehicles. Their voracious gasoline consumption drives up demand and cost of gas for everyone and furthers our dependence on foreign oil. That subsequently acts as a catalyst for war in the Middle East.
An SUV seems safer than a car because it is big enough not to get smashed or tossed around easily. That is not the case.
SUVs are unsafe for drivers and passengers because they roll over more easily in a crash.
Traffic Safety Administration shows that more than half of SUV accident deaths involve roll-overs, compared to 19% for normal cars.
Also, SUVs are considered light trucks, and as such their manufacturers are not bound by such stringent side-impact safety and bumper strength laws as passenger cars.
According to the Web site www.suv.org a study done by the National Highway
Sam Lane

Moreover, SUVs are an unnecessary burden to everyone else on the road.

Because of their high ground clearance, the headlights of an SUV are mounted at about the same level as the side mirrors of most cars, so their headlights are aimed directly into the eyes of the driver in the car ahead of them.

'Late Night' is religious for freshman
Upon my arrival at the University of Kansas, I never really received a formal welcome. However, the welcoming I got at "Late Night with Roy Williams" was good enough for me. It taught me everything I needed to know about this university.
Two things happened last year when I was asked where I was going to school. The first was that everyone went into shock that a kid from St. Louis was going to Kansas instead of Missouri. The second was that they would say, "Pretty special basketball program they got up there."
Well, thanks for pointing out the obvious. Like I do not know who Paul Pierce or Ryan Robertson is. However, when a teacher of mine told me that going to a game at Allen Fieldhouse was like a religious experience. I was skeptical.
I thought it was a little weird, but I kept my mouth shut — something I am not good at. Then someone else told me the same thing. So, I did something else I am not good at and decided to have an open mind when I arrived in Lawrence.
My first experience with the basketball team and Allen Fieldhouse came Oct. 11 during Late Night. I was truly excited to see if these guys were crazy or not. My friends and I arrived about 6:15 p.m. anticipating the arrival of the festivities. Finally, at 9:45 p.m., it was time. The lights turned off and every person in the stands stood up and started cheering.
Let me stop right there. The fact that 16,000 people were at the fieldhouse on a Friday night to cheer their team on in a non-competitive event shocked me.
The fans started chanting "let's go Jayhawks" and I joined in, but all I could think was that everyone in St. Louis would be extremely disappointed in me.
Then about 9:55 p.m., something happened that I thought was amazing — the future stars of Jayhawk Land were introduced. Four guys that do not even play for Kansas got a standing ovation. I just stood there in awe.
A few minutes after that, a video tribute honored women's basketball coach Marian Washington, something I thought was nice.
Now it was time. I wanted to see if this would be a religious experience or not. Before I could decide, the men's team's introduction began. The fans and I started going crazy.
As each player was introduced, the roar seemed to get louder. Langford, Miles and Simien got extremely loud cheers, and I could not wait to see what these awesome fans would do for the two All-Americans. Then Kirk Hinrich came running out with his hands going up and down, trying to get the crowd louder, something I did not think was possible.
The tast player was introduced: Nick Collison. And then the biggest ovation of the night went to the man who deserved it — Roy Williams. Everyone started to chant his name, and I joined in.
At this point, my question was answered. My teacher was right. This was just like a religious experience.
As I watched the skits, laughing and cheering at every opportunity, I started to think about how good the team was. KU is home to one of the best ball handlers in the nation, the best shooter in the nation, one of the most underrated players in the country, a guy who is a huge physical force inside and the man in the middle, the guy who is so important to this team's success.
Two things often occur to me as I daydream in class. The first is that I might be the biggest dork in Lawrence, and the second is that Massachusetts Street sure will be crazy in early April.

Kansas downs All-Stars
Simien shines bench impresses in Jayhawks' 'glorified practice'

CROW
In Sesame Street terms, last night's game was brought to you by the letter W and the numbers nine, 10 and 26.
Wayne Simien — the Big Bird of Kansas' first game — showed what he learned while school was out, scoring 26 points on 9-of-10 shooting. Simien also nailed 8 of 8 free throws while leading Kansas to a 111-94 win against the EA Sports All-Stars.
"I felt good out there and got into a nice rhythm offensively," Simien said. "That's something I worked on over the summer and it's showing. I'm sure coach is going to say I needed to rebound better. He always finds something that I need to work on," he said, after finishing with six boards.
Simien was right. Coach Roy Williams said Simien's play did not surprise him, but it did not impress him, either.
"He had one of these games last year against them also," said Williams about Simien, who now averages over 25 points against this team. "Maybe he just likes playing against EA Sports."
Williams said that the rest of the "glorified practice" pointed out weak areas. The squad did not play well defensively, he said, and the tempo and play-making need work, too.
"I don't think we played exceptionally well," he said. "It wasn't as good of a game as we need to have to say the least, and

Guard thrilled to be back in Lawrence
By Doyle Murphy
dmurphy@kansan.com Kansas sportswriter
The past and future of Kansas basketball converged at the point guard position last night.
Former Jayhawk Adonis Jordan returned to Allen Fieldhouse as a member of the EA Sports All-Stars to face Aaron Miles and the current Kansas team.
Even more than playing the game, Jordan said he was thrilled to be back in Lawrence.
"I will always be a jayhawk," Jordan told reporters after the game. "I don't get to come back that much, because I'm all the way over on the west coast but I'll always be a jayhawk."
Recruited by former Kansas coach Larry Brown, Jordan chose to stand by coach Roy Williams after Brown's departure. It wasn't a popular decision with other recruits, and most went elsewhere when it was revealed the Jayhawks would face probation as a result of recruiting violations committed under Brown.
Jordan and Kansas turned out to be a perfect match. He and the Jayhawks made two trips to the Final Four during his tenure, including a second-place finish in 1991.
"I don't know if people really understand how important he was to us 15 long years ago." Williams said after the game. "He stuck with us during the time it was really tough around here. I was really happy how the crowd treated him."
Even though Jordan graduated from the University in

Freshman gets chance in lopsided loss to 'Cats

Kansan writerwriter
Kansas coach Mark Mangino has not been on the losing end of any game quite like Saturday's 64-0 loss to rival Kansas State.
14
Even though Mangino usually has been on the victorious side of such blowouts, as an assistant coach at Kansas State and Oklahoma, he knew exactly what to do as he watched the Jayhawks fall behind 36-0 midway through the second quarter.
He said he told the assistant coaches that they weren't going to change the outcome of the game, so he wanted to give younger players the experience of going against quality Big 12 competition.
The most obvious switch that Mangino made was in the second quarter when he replaced senior quarterback Jonas Weatherbie, who was starting in place of injured junior quarterback Bill Whittimore.
CHRIS BURKET/KANSAN
Weatherbie was not providing the spark to the offense that Mangino looking for when he listed him as the starter. After completing two of nine passes for no yards and an interception, Weatherbie was sent to the bench in favor of second-year freshman Brian Luke.
Brian Luke, red-shirt freshman quarterback, drops back to throw a pass late in the fourth quarter. Luke threw 18 passes with 7 completions totaling 74 yards.
Luke was surrounded by other offensive players who had not seen much action in the Jayhawks' previous nine games.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Nov. 5).
You'll get to rely on your wits a lot this year, but that shouldn't be a problem. You're smart enough, and you're unlikely to act impulsively, even under pressure. Actually, truth be known, you work best under pressure.
Aries (March 21-April 19) Today is a 5. You can figure out what to do, but don't just follow a friend's advice. What worked in different circumstances isn't likely to work now.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) Today is an 8.
Scorpios will be even more forceful than usual now. If you want something done, hand it over to one. But remember, sometimes they think the ends justify the means. And the favor won't be inexpensive. You'll pay, one way or another.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) Today is a 6. Do you love your job? Look forward to the challenge? If not, pretend you do. This will make the day go by faster and more successfully.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) Today is an 8. Romance will go much better if you can avoid an argument about money. But how? By not making promises you can't keep, for starters. Goals you share are better.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Today is a 6.
One person in particular is resistant to change. That's fine, as long this person agrees with you. If not, either compromise or get reinforcements.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Today is a 7.
When you set your mind to it, you can do amazing things. You just have to settle down and focus your energy. If you find something others won't like, hold onto it until you have your plan worked out.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Today is a 6.
Gather, sort and file. Figure out how much you've made and how much you owe. You won't end up with as much as you had before, but it should be enough.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Today is an 8.
You'd be accomplishing even more if people would simply do what you say. But they have opinions. They want to be convinced. Humor them.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Today is a 5.

Secrets are being revealed, and a few delusions won't last much longer, either. Don't make assumptions or take anything for granted.

Duke is returning all five starters from a Final Four team. No wonder it's starting the season at No.1.
The Blue Devils were an overwhelming choice for the top spot in The Associated Press preseason women's basketball poll yesterday, the team's first No.1 ranking.
Duke's women never had been higher than third.
Duke received 38 of 44 firstplace votes from a national media panel for a total of 1,093 points. Tennessee was second with 1,049 points. LSU third with 941, and defending national champion Connecticut fourth with 873.
"Wesee it as a great honor," said coach Gail Goostenkors. "We understand it doesn't mean anything. It's the postseason ranking we're after. However, it shows how far our program has come and that it is well respected."
Tennessee, which has led the preseason poll a record 10 times, received four first-place votes. LSU and Connecticut each had one.
鱼
At No. 3, LSU has its highest
ranking since the Lady Tigers were second March 8, 1978. Fourth is the lowest for Connecticut since it was No.4 in the final poll of the 1998-99 season.
Connecticut lost four senior starters from a team that went 39-0 and gave the school its third NCAA title. The Huskies had been No. 1 in 19 straight polls and 49 of the last 56.
Kansas State, which went 26-8 last season with freshmen and sophomores, was fifth, and Stanford was sixth. Texas Tech, Purdue, Georgia and Notre Dame completed the top 10.
Alana Beard, a first-team All-American as a sophomore last season, heads the returns at Duke, which went 31-4 and earned its second Final Four trip despite having just eight players.
Seven of the eight return, joined by a recruiting class with All-Americans Brooke Smith, Mistie Bass and Lindsey Harding.
"This team is very hungry to reach the very top," she said. "It was great for our young team last year to reach the Final Four, to have that experience and to understand what it takes to get there. Now we want to take it that next step and finish it off."
The top 25 teams in The Associated Press' women's preseason college basketball poll, with first-place votes in parentheses, 2001-02 records, total points based on 25 points for a first-place vote through one point for a 25th-place vote and last year's final ranking:

Uh, yeah. KU/K-State. We suck
You know, it's good for people in Manhattan to come and visit the KU campus, because then it reminds them how ugly theirs is.

I'd like to applaud the Kansas State Wildcats for their creative mascot. I mean, a guy in a football uniform with a Wildcat head. That's just profound.
The lone bright spot today was when the cheerleaders had a competition on the sidelines to see who could hold the cheerleader in the air the longest. KU won that battle hands down. K-State's male cheerleaders are pansies.
Yeah, this is to the guy that just mooned the K-State band, that was so insensitive and that doesn't represent Kansas athletics whatsoever. And I think you should be kicked off campus.
Hey, this is the guy that just mooned the K- State band. Bite my ass.

Warner starts throwing again could return in two weeks
ST.LOUIS—Rams quarterback Kurt Warner is scheduled to resume throwing this week after having pins taken out of his broken right pinky Monday.
Warner, the NFL's MVP in 1999 and 2001, should pass the ball in practice Wednesday and could return to the lineup Nov. 18 against the Chicago Bears. That would mean a seven-week layoff since he had surgery on his throwing hand.
When Warner was hurt, the Rams estimated he would be out eight to 10 weeks.
"He's probably a week ahead of schedule," coach Mike Martz said. "It's still going to take some time."

Donald becomes the 18th different winner on PGA Tour
MADISON, Miss. — Rookie Luke Donald became the 18th first-time winner on the PGA Tour this season when the final round of the Southern Farm Bureau Classic was canceled Monday because of rain.
The 24-year-old Donald finished with a 54-hole total of 15 under-par 201 when heavy rain left the Annandale Golf Club course unplayable.
Fifty-four players were on the soggy course when play was stopped after about an hour on Sunday. Twenty-seven players, including the leaders, did not start their final round.

since the Southwest Missouri State game on Sept.14, played in several quarters of the game a.r.d had one catch for eight yards.
Junior running back Harold McClendon contributed to Kansas' 115 offensive yards against the Wildcats with 25 yards on five carries. McClendon shared playing time with second-year freshman running back Clark Green, who carried the ball 15 times for 41 yards.
McClendon is likely to receive more playing time this season because Mangino said that junior running back Reggie Duncan probably would not play in the final two games against Nebraska and Oklahoma State.
Mangino said playing in a game where Kansas trailed taught his underclassmen to play hard without looking at the scoreboard.
"I wanted them to be in there, in a ball game against a good team, an in-state rival, where they had to face adversity and had to keep fighting," Mangino said. "I wanted them to be tested and understand that you have to be able to fight, claw and scratch under
any conditions — winning, losing."
On the defensive side of the ball, where former quarterbacks freshman Nick Reid and junior Zach Dyer have been converted to starters, Mangino did even more shuffling with his lineup.
Junior defensive back Bobby Birhiray made four tackles against Kansas State, after making one tackle in the first nine games of the season, and had his first career interception in the third quarter.
Mangino was so impressed with freshman line backer Kevin Kane that he named him the defensive player of the game. Kane had a career-high six tackles.
Although Mangino said he was happy with the experience that the younger players gained in Saturday's game, he was quick to say that he did not want to discourage his upperclassmen.
"They know how I feel and I want them, the older kids, the seniors, to finish their careers strong here," Mangino said. "I want them to leave here with their head up high, with their dignity and pride, knowing they gave everything they had no matter the circumstances."

New show key to ABC's revival
The Associated Press
It's part of ABC's "happy hour" strategy, trying to level the playing field against leaders NBC and CBS by snaring a broad family audience in the first hour of prime time — and then attempting to hold them for the night.
Through Oct. 30, George Lopez was the most-watched program in its time slot, drawing
LOS ANGELES — ABC sitcom star George Lopez was a guest on Good Morning America last month when he got a friendly reminder about his part in the network's rebuild effort.
"Charles Gibson leans toward me during the commercial and says, 'You know, my Christmas bonus is riding on your show,'" Lopez recalled. "As we were ending the interview I said, 'Let me be the first one to wish you Feliz Navidad.'"
Merry Christmas, indeed, for the Walt Disney Co. network as George Lopez has demonstrated ratings muscle in the 8:30 p.m. EST Wednesday slot following Damon Wavans' M wife and Kids.
12 million viewers (versus 11 million for runner-up "Ed" on NBC). It's also the leader with the advertiser-favored contingents of teenagers and adults 18 to 49, according to Nielsen Media Research.
The series, which had an initial brief run as a midseason replacement last May, "has been a crucial player in our 8 to 9 o'clock success," said Stephanie Leifer, ABC's senior vice president for comedy programming.
With the promising start for Lopez's show and other new series including 8 Simple Rules for Dating my Teenage Daughter, ABC executives say the network has begun to rebound from last season's dismal 23 percent drop in viewership.
The network recently ordered 22 episodes, a full season's worth.
"We couldn't be happier with how this has gone thus far, but at the same time recognize there's quite a bit of work left to do," said Lloyd Braun, ABC Entertainment Television Group chairman.
Lopez's show is one of those helping build "bone" in the
Drawn from stand-up comedian Lopez's life, the show casts him as an assembly line worker newly promoted to manager at an airplane parts plant. On the home front, he and wife Angie (Constance Marie) manage their two children (Luis Armand-Garcia, Masiela Lusha) and joust with George's tough-as-nails mother, Benny (Belita Moreno).
schedule, Braun said.
Beyond obvious beneficiaries ABC, Disney and Lopez himself, the sitcom has brought satisfaction to a wider circle — especially critics of network TV's diversity in programming.
"I guarantee you that there are a lot of people at ABC and the other networks that are pretty astonished viewers are willing to watch George Lopez," said Lisa Navarrete, spokeswoman for the National Council of La Raza in Washington.
The networks' belief that programs with predominantly Hispanic casts won't play with non-Hispanic audiences is misguided, Navarrete said.

Buckeyes pass Miami in rankings
The Associated Press
Look who's No. 2 in the new Bowl Championship Series standings.
Ohio State, helped by a big quality win over Washington State earlier this year and Miami's drop in The Associated Press poll, has overtaken the Hurricanes in the standings released yesterday.
The Buckeyes jumped three spots and nudged past defending champion Miami, which stayed unbeaten while posting its school-record 30th straight win Saturday, 42-17 over Rutgers.
But the Hurricanes had to rally in the fourth quarter, and that cost them. Oklahoma remained No.1 while Ohio State moved into second,0.44 ahead of Miami.
The top two teams in the final series standings released Dec. 8 will play in the national title game at the Fiesta Bowl in Tempe,

Ariz., on Jan. 3.
"We are proud of what our young men have done to date," Ohio State coach Jim Tressel said. "But we know if we don't play our best road game of the year at Purdue, we won't be No.2 next week."
Ohio State has a 6.17 composi-
ite total, compared to Miami's 6.01. But the Buckeyes got a 0.6 deduction for a 25-7 victory over Washington State on Sept. 14. Miami has no bonus-point deductions.
The quality win deductions were added last year after Miami
tailed to make the national championship game over Florida State following the 2000 season, despite beating the Seminoles earlier in the year.
The Hurricanes' struggles against lowly Rutgers dropped them to No.2 in the AP media poll.
If the Hurricanes had stayed No.1 in both polls, its poll average would have been 1—putting them 0.06 points ahead of the Buckeyes.
"I can't be overly concerned about what the pollsters do," Miami coach Larry Coker said yesterday. "First of all, it will be easy to rate us if we don't play better. The thing we have to do is make sure we get it corrected and win the games. If we do that, the polls will take care of themselves. I know that sounds like a broken record, but I really believe it's true."
Fired football coach says he had no chance
The Associated Press
WACO, Texas — Fired Baylor coach Kevin Steele said the shrinking timeframe he was given to turn around the program made his job virtually impossible to complete.
"To turn around a program and build a program pretty much from the depths in three and a half years is difficult to do," Steele said yesterday, a day after he was fired. "I was very disappointed in the demands and the allotted timeframe."
Steele will coach the final three games of his fourth season, starting Saturday at No.4 Texas. The Bears (3-6, 1-4, Big 12) then play No.1 Oklahoma and Oklahoma State.
Steele is 9-33 overall, and
the bears have won just one of his 29 Big 12 games. Steele reportedly has at least two seasons left on his contract, but the only private school in the conference refuses to release or confirm contract details.
"I'm very proud that we are leaving it better than we got it," Steele said during the weekly Big 12 coaches teleconference, his first public comments since the firing.
Baylor hasn't had a winning season since 1995.
Athletic director Tom Stanton, who plans to begin the search for Steele's successor, was expected to undergo a minor corrective procedure in the hospital today but could be back to work by the end of the week.

we have a long ways to go."
The Jayhawk bench, much noted for its lack of depth, came alive in the second half. Freshman Moulaye Niang hit a shot under the basket and freshman Jeff Hawkins stole the ball on the following play, scoring at the other end. Two free throws and a putback by junior Jeff Graves kept the scoring streak alive, and a Hawkins slash through the lane ended the bench run at 11 straight points. The bench contributed 31 points on the evening. Williams continues to develop his raw players.
"It was good for them to play against somebody else as opposed to those five guys who are so much more experienced," he said. "I can't trade anybody. I can't draft anybody, so the only way to have depth is to try to play them and encourage them."
Former Kansas standout Adonis Jordan made a return to Allen Fieldhouse and ended with 9 points. Hawkins said he
"I grew up watching Adonis play so it was really good to play against a guy who went to two back to back Final Fours," Hawkins said.
looked forward to the match-up of young players versus old.
Simien was eager to play against a guy he idolized as a kid.
"Growing up a Jayhawk fan and just being on the same court with him was a great feeling," he said.
Point guard Aaron Miles the player in charge of guarding Jordan got off to a slow start by Williams' standards. Miles ended with eight assists, seven points, six steals and five turnovers but did play tight defense on Jordan most of the game.
Williams said Miles did not play as well as the rest of the starters.
"The funny thing is if I had to pick the one guy that's been the most consistent in the preseason, I would pick Aaron, yet he had the worst game of those five guys," Williams said.

Guards CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
1993, Kansas fans treated him as if he had never left. He was greeted by a standing ovation during the announcement of the starting lineups. It was a sharp contrast to the rest of the All Stars, who were booed from start to finish.
"I think they're solid. They're smart. They play good 'D.'" he said. "They kind of remind me of Rex (Walters) and myself."
Jordan showed that his skills were still sharp even after nine years. He and Miles battled to a near-draw throughout Kansas' 111-94 victory. Each player scored 7 points, but Miles owned the edge in assists 8-2. Guards Jeff Hawkins, a freshman, and Kirk Hinrich, a senior, also saw some time against Jordan.
After the game, Jordan had nothing but praise for the Jayhawks' back court. He drew comparison between them and another pair of ballyhooed Kansas guards.
Since leaving Kansas, Jordan has rarely stopped moving. He has played in nine countries ranging from Australia to South Korea to Italy. He also had brief stints in the NBA with the Milwaukee Bucks and Denver Nuggets.
The life of a basketball journeyman has given him a new outlook, he said.
"Sometimes I say 'Wow, would have it been better for me to play in the NBA and not have the experience that I experienced the last nine years?' he said. "I don't know if I'd really trade it, seriously."

KANSAS Junior Jeff Graves not on team but sees court time p.1B
Local man arrested, charged in shooting
By Michelle Burhenn mburhenn@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
A 19-year-old Lawrence man was arrested early yesterday after a woman identified him to police as the man who shot her three times in the head and chest, Lawrence police Sgt. Mike Patrick said.
Antonio E. Floyd, resident of 1745 W. 24th St., was charged with attempted first degree murder, sexual battery, criminal possession of a firearm and aggravated intimidation of a witness in Douglas County District Court yesterday.
Douglas County District Attorney Christine Kenney said the victim was a witness in a federal drug case against Floyd. Patrick said the victim's involvement in the case was a possible motive.
Patrick said the woman had been alert and talking after the shooting and was able to give them a detailed description of the shooting, which led police to arrest Floyd.
The 31-year-old woman told police she woke up around 2:30 a.m. yesterday when a man pounded on the front door of her home in the 1500 block of Haskell Avenue. When she went to the door a man entered her house. Pattrick said the man then sexually battered her.
When she tried to resist, the man pulled out a handgun and shot her three times in the face and chest areas. He then left the house, Pattrick said.
Patrick said the woman called 911 and identified the shooter as Floyd. Lawrence police located Floyd less than 15 minutes later driving in a car near 24th Street and Ousdahl Road. Patrick said Floyd was arrested, and a passenger in the car with him was held for questioning. Police later recovered a .32-caliber handgun and ammunition outside of the car.
The woman was transported to Lawrence Memorial Hospital and later to a Kansas City-area hospital, where Patrick said she was in critical but stable condition.
John Nowak/Kansan
Judge Peggy Kittel set his bond at $250,000. Floyd was out of jail on bond from three previous charges stemming from a July 11 shooting in Lawrence, including criminal possession of a firearm, criminal damage and battery.

Cheers erupted from a crowd as Kathleen Sebelius (D-Topeka) thanked her supporters in her victory speech last night for their votes.
"I will work on making the government accountable to the people it serves." Sebelius told the crowd attending her victory party at the Holiday Inn, 605 SW Fairlawn Rd, Topeka. Members of the KU Young Democrats were among those present.
Sebelius addressed public education and health care two main planks in her platform.
"We've had high expectations of public schools, the engines of prosperity, and for health care, the pillar of the unique quality of life in Kansas," she said.
She saluted Tim Shallenburger, her Republican opponent. The two have worked together in Kansas politics since 1986.
"This is a huge relief and is completely overwhelming. The fact that she will serve four years is amazing.She is the type of person to spend her time in office productively."
Holly Krebs

Sebelius won the position of Governor with 53 percent of the votes over Shallenburger's 45 percent. Election results were projected by the Associated Press with 98% of precincts reporting.
"This is a huge relief and is completely overwhelming," said Holly Krebs, Douglas County Field Coordinator for the Democratic party and KU alumna. "The fact that she will serve four years is amazing. She is the type of person to spend her time in office productively."
Democrats a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives by a margin of just under 7,000 votes over his Republican opponent Adam Taff (R-Lake Ouivira)
But, his margin of victory decreased from past elections because of new redistricting laws in effect this year, said Nate Rhoads, member of KU Young Democrats. The western section of Lawrence now votes for the 2nd District House of Representatives candidates.
Dennis Moore (D-Lenexa) also won
"Douglas County is a liberal mainstay in the state and the new redistricting cut the county in half," said the Brunswick, Maine senior.
The race for Attorney General was neck-and-neck between Chris Biggs (D-Geary County) and Phill Kline (R-Shawnee). At press time, Kline had 401,324 votes and Biggs had 398,963 votes.
But Greg Douros, St. Louis graduate student and Young Democrats member, said he was confident Biggs was the better candidate and would win the race.

Law school adopts new grading policy
By Molly Gise
mgise@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas law school adopted a new policy this fall with hopes of improving the way students were graded.
Faculty adopted the curve as a way to promote uniformity in grading, said Webb Hecker, associate dean and professor in the law school.
The policy establishes a mandatory curve for average class grades in all law courses.
"We want students' choices of courses to be driven by what they thought was going to help them educationally and not by whether a particular professor was a hard grader or an easy grader," Hecker said.
For first year courses, the class GPA must fall between 2.8 and 3.0.To obtain the class GPA,the sum of the grades of all the students in the class is divided by the number of students.
The mandatory curve establishes a
range of class grade point averages. A different curve is set up for first-year classes, required non-first year classes and other elective courses.
The curve for first year classes was determined by where grades for those classes have traditionally fallen, Hecker said.
According to the policy, failing grades aren't included in the class GPA calculation.
"They just naturally curve," Hecker said.
Required, non-first year courses must have a class GPA between 2.9 and 3.1.

ATM numbers changing
Commerce Bank to assign new PINs for KU Card users
By Jenna Goepfert
goopefert@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Because of ATM machine conversions at Commerce Bank, students who use their KU Cards for ATM and debit functions will need to learn a new personal identification number to access their accounts.
The change will go into effect Nov 18. The new PINs will be mailed to bank customers by Nov. 11 at the addresses they have registered with the bank.
The PIN changes will only affect KU Card users, not regular bank customers, said bank president Mark Gonzales.
Commerce Bank's KU Card users
were first notified of the change in their October bank statements.
If students want to change their PINs back to their original codes, they can go to either the Iowa Street or Kansas Union bank branches on or after Nov. 18, Gonzales said.
Gonzales would not comment on what new features the upgrade would provide because those changes would not be immediately apparent.
"They're doing it because it'll improve service and it's something that they have to do," she said. "We certainly don't like to inconvenience anyone, and neither do they."
Nancy Miles, administrator of the KU Card program, said it was the bank's decision to change students' PINs, but she didn't think the issuance of new PINs would cause many problems.
Marti Karlin, debit product manager for the bank, said the KU Card conversion would occur overnight and ATM system conversions would be completed by the end of the year.
Anthony Marnell, Naperville, Ill., freshman, said he only glanced at his bank statements and hadn't heard about the issuance of new PINs.
Gonzales said his biggest concern was that students might not read their bank statements or letters from the bank.
"I just make sure that my money's there," Marnell said.
Gonzales said he also wanted to make sure students who have listed their parents' addresses as their permanent address still received word of the changes.
3
"It really depends on the students and how much they look at their mail. That's where the confusion could take place," Gonzales said. "But we'll be ready for them."

U.S. sends Haitians home rate of refugees increasing
MIAMI — The Coast Guard said yesterday it had stepped up sea and air patrols in response to an increase in the flow of illegal immigrants from Haiti, the Dominican Republic and Cuba.
The increase was announced yesterday after 19 Haitians were sent back home. These 19 failed to get ashore when an overcrowded wooden freighter carrying more than 225 Haitians ran aground in Miami one week ago.
"We are preparing just in case better to be safe than sorry," said Luis Diaz, a Coast Guard spokesman in Miami. "We don't want to see more boats like that. The trip is extremely dangerous."
U. S. policy to repatriate all immigrants picked up at sea after brief ship board interviews by immigration officials.
The 19 immigrants turned over to Haitian officials yesterday had been held by the Coast Guard after being taken into custody on Oct.29.
City suspends police officers caught beating suspect
yesterday.
PHILADELPHIA - Thirteen police officers will be suspended for participating in the beating of a robbery suspect caught on videotape in July 2000, the city's police commissioner said
The suspensions range from five days to 15 days. Commissioner Sylvester Johnson declined to give the officers' names, saying not all had been told of the punishments for beating or shooting.
Police shot the suspect five times and yanked him from the cruiser as a news crew in a helicopter taped the arrest. Officers repeatedly kicked and punched the suspect, a scene replayed on television across the country.
The suspect is serving an 18- to 36-year prison sentence after pleading guilty to carjacking, robbery, aggravated assault and other charges during a 12-day crime spree that led to his arrest.

Vatican questions gays serving in the priesthood
VATICAN CITY — The Vatican said yesterday it is drafting new guidelines for accepting candidates for the priesthood. The guidelines will address the question of whether gays should be considered for the priesthood.
The Vatican's press office gave no indication what the conclusion may be despite news reports that the document will include directives against the admission of homosexuals.
Vatican congregations have been studying the issue for years, but the question has received more attention after the clerical sexual abuse scandal in the United States.
Experts on sex offenders say there is no credible evidence that homosexuals are more likely than heterosexuals to abuse children sexually, but some church leaders argue that gay clergy are to blame for the scandal.
The office said the Congregation for Catholic Education had begun drafting the document, but no publication date had been set. It will not be published until next year at the earliest.
A Vatican official said the question of admitting homosexuals and other issues will be discussed in a letter to seminaries.

News sources exercise caution in calling elections
NEW YORK — TV news opted to be safe, not sorry, in covering Tuesday's election.
The Associated Press
It was quite a change from past election nights, when networks scrambled to beat one another in projecting winners by even a matter of minutes.
Facing numerous tight races the networks pledged not to repeat the errors of two years ago in calling winners.
Then, Tuesday afternoon, they were left without expected exit poll data when Voter News Service withheld its analysis of voter attitudes as unreliable.
CNN waited for early ballot counts from both VNS and its own backup force.
Through the evening, correspondents took pains to explain the mission of VNS (an election-analysis consortium consisting of ABC, CBS, NBC CNN, Fox and the AP).
They tried to fill viewers in on what had gone awry.
CNN gave viewers a behind-the-scenes look at its number-crunchers at their laptops.
Newseasters took turns preparing the audience for a long night, recommending a brief nap and a full pot of coffee. They warned of days or even weeks before some races would be settled.

College strains family relations
By Louise Stauffer
Istaurfer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Austin Walker says he doesn't have much time to talk to his parents. When he does, it is about an essential matter: money.
"It's never like a 'hi, what's up conversation," Walker, St. Louis sophomore said.
College can make or break relationships between students and their parents. A few simple tips can help keep ties between parent and child strong.
Dr. Dennis Karpowitz, psychology professor, said the key to a good relationship with one's parents was to simply keep the lines of communication open.
Becky Black said she was not
in the best graces with her parents. Black, St. Louis sophomore, said she talked to her parents on the phone about once a week.
"They always call me," she said.
"They always call me," she said. Karpowitz said if students found themselves disagreeing with their parents frequently, they should talk about issues that don't spark confrontation.
"Talk about things parents would enjoy knowing about," he said. "Tell them what you're doing."
Karpowitz suggested dis cussing topics such as majors, classes, and activities that interested both students and parents.
Dress and attitude patterns seen by some parents as non-conformist can create conflict.
Jake Yadrich, Kansas City,
Kansas sophomore, said his mom was upset about his tongue and eyebrow piercings and the tattoo he acquired while at college.
"Every time I see my mom she offers me money to take them out," he said.
For students who feel their parents call them too much, a straightforward, but gentle, suggestion to back off might be the most effective solution. Karpowitz said students should tell their parents how often they wanted to talk. Or, he said, just don't answer the phone.
"If you have an answering machine, let it ring," he said. He said students should call when it's convenient for them, so that they are not interrupted and have time to talk.
Jenny Ferns said she spoke to her mother every day. Ferns, Overland Park sophomore, said she and her mother were close because they through hard times together when Ferns was younger. She said they spoke of how the day went, future plans and other family members.
Even though Yadrich disagrees with his mom about his tattoos and piercings, he said he appreciated talking to them more now than when he was in high school. He said he had the typical teenage attitude that talking to parents was nothing but a hassle.
"It's reassuring to talk to them," he said.

'Professor' more than just a title
"How KU works" is an occasional series that explains how the University of Kansas operates. If you have a suggestion for a future installment, contact Kyle Ramsey at kramsey @kansan.com.

Kansan staff writer
The word "professor" is more than just a title preceding a teacher's name: it signifies hard work and recognition achieved through the tenure process.
Tenure status is awarded to faculty who have proven expertise in their field through their teaching and research. When faculty members receive tenure, their appointment at the University is renewed automatically every year. This essentially provides tenured faculty members with a life-long term at the University, as long as they continually meet the guidelines for sustaining tenure.
Associate and assistant professors are instructors who have not yet received tenure.
But receiving tenure does not grant immunity from being fired.
Faculty members whose performance is
How KU works
in question enter a lengthy evaluation process, which could last for years, said Provost David Shulenburger.
He said most professors in danger of having their tenure revoked either retired or resigned from the University before the formal review process began.
"The consequence of the decision is great," Shulenburger said.
"Therefore we take great care in making that decision."
Only two tenured faculty members have been dismissed from the University since Shulenburger came here 28 years ago, he said.
The Tenure and Related Problems Committee, part of the University's Faculty Senate, would deal with revoking tenure status if the situation arose again.
Sandra Craig McKenzie, committee chairwoman, said the committee had not had to revoke a faculty member's tenure since she joined the committee three years ago.
"That's not something that has happened very often at the University," she said.
University officials over the years have created two general
guidelines — academic performance and competence — when evaluating tenured faculty 'tenured professors' teaching and research performance must meet guidelines set by tenure committees in the professors' respective departments.
Competence relates to professors' ability to do their jobs, as well as adhering to the University's rules and regulations as posted in the Handbook for Faculty and Unclassified Staff. The handbook is online at www.ukans.edu/%7Eunigov/fachand.html.
University officials granted tenure to 17 faculty members this year, bringing the number of fulltime faculty with tenure to 696. About 76 percent of the University's faculty is tenured.

There's a 'fresh' way to eat 'hearty' meals
By Lindsay Hanson
lhanson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Campus food providers are launching a campaign to trim the fat next week.
Dubbed "Fresh & Hearty," the program will provide patrons with alternative, healthier entrees at campus residence halls, Kansas and Burge Unions and Wescoe Terrace.
Each "Fresh & Hearty" entree will be marked and identified by the number of calories and fat grams it contains. The revised recipes will reduce sodium levels and eliminate cream and butter.
The program began brewing last year under the direction of Ann Chapman, coordinator of nutrition services at Watkins Memorial Health Center and registered dietitian.
"The whole gist is that students need to become more accepting toward their bodies," she said.
The media influence over body image had sparked the idea of offering healthier eating alternatives, she said. Taking a campus-wide approach with the Healthy Options for Movement, Exercise, Body Acceptance and Savvy Eating committee, or HOMEBASE, Chapman said the program would try to dispel myths about dieting and food restriction.
"If you are comfortable with your body, you'll want to put the right kind of food in it and nurture it with exercise," she said.
Chapman said she modeled "Fresh & Hearty" after a similar program in place that targets
Fresh & Hearty
Fresh & Hearty
local restaurants in the vicinity of the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.
Each "Fresh & Hearty" entree will follow American Heart Association guidelines, which specify a diet for a healthy heart consists of 2,000 calories per day and 65 grams of fat.
Chapman said the fat content of some of the featured entrees — which reaches 23 grams with some of the meals — might alarm students.
"What people don't understand is that a heart-healthy diet has up to 30 percent of its daily calories from fat," she said.
Jason Arnett, The Market supervisor, said he wanted students to know that healthy foods had always been available at the Kansas Union and that the stickers would just help identify what was healthy.
The program's deployment has been delayed because the "Fresh & Hearty" stickers have not arrived, Chapman said. She said she hoped to have things ready to present by Monday.
Chapman said HOMEBASE would apply the Fresh and Hearty program to campus vending machines in the future.

FACE-OFI
Should voters attack negative ads?
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.
Childish campaigns don't help anyone
Negative campaign ads are an election year tradition. Unfortunately, they are also useless because voters cannot trust them and because they don't garner any votes for candidates.
For instance, a recent ad panned Kansas gubernatorial candidate Tim Shallenburger's use of negative ads.
However, The Lawrence Journal-World reported in an article titled "Sebelius ad attacks Shallenburger's attack" that Sebelius "has also launched so-called negative ads that Shallenburger claims are misleading."
Even when candidates are accusing other candidates of airing negative ads, they themselves are hiding behind a veil of hypocrisy.
Why shouldn't politicians use negative ads to promote their position?
Two local professors raised their concern that negative campaign ads are offensive and anything but effective in a story titled "Negative ads win few votes, experts say" in The Lawrence JournalWorld.
Rohini Ahluwalia, KU associate professor of business, who specializes in how people process negative information, did a study of 2,000 voters across the nation and evaluated their response to different political questions.
She found that negative ads are simply reinforcing the feelings of voters who have already made up their minds.
Mark Peterson, Washburn University
assistant professor of political science, pointed out that negative ads often make candidates seem desperate. He said that candidates who are behind usually begin using negative campaign ads try to compensate.
Some supporters of negative campaign ads say they are important because they raise discussion surrounding critical issues. However, a majority of the time information in these ads is false or misleading.
For example, a Sebelius ad that said Kansas law enforcement endorsed her for governor misled voters. The statement, although partially true, fails to mention that the Fraternal Order of Police and Friends of Kansas State Troopers endorsed Shallenburger too, saying both candidates would make a good governor.
When ads are false or misleading it leaves viewers frustrated, not knowing what to believe. Millions of dollars are wasted each year on ads viewers can't even trust.
With election now over, viewers can breath a sigh of relief and not worry about the constant onslaught of negative campaign advertising. However, the time will come again when we'll hear statements such as "Enough with the negative ads. Kansas deserves better" again.
Those commercials, at least, are right, voters do deserve better.
Amy Potter dissenting
IF Tim doesn't have to give solutions then neither do I! He's trying to be Poster Boy for Mr. Morals, but he's mean meanie with a funny mustache... wahh!

wahhh... Kathleen is immoral 'cuz she's pro-choice, she won't even send people to jail for burning the Flag - ewww! I bet she doesn't even shower every day either!
Monica White/Kansan
Ads provide unique perspective
It's a practice as old as time and as advanced as the sandbox. The art of mudslinging, today in the form negative political advertising, is a staple of the modern political landscape.
This year's election has been no exception as both major parties used whatever means necessary to gain control of congress.
The seemingly omnipresent television commercials and newspaper ads disintegrated into insults, but still some held nuggets of truth.
Thus presents the question, are these advertisements really necessary to maintain our democratic society?
Such advertisements serve important functions in our political system by conveying vital information, sharing with us the character of our candidates and even entertaining us.
As voters we need to be informed. Although these advertisements may be shady or ethically questionable, if true, they present a side of candidates that might not otherwise be seen.
Take the case of Senator Jesse Helms, R-N.C., who in 1993 attempted to make then Senator and African-American leader Carol Moseley-Braun, D-III., cry by singing "I wish I was in the land of cotton..." and eventually whistling "Dixie."
This provides a telling look into Helm's character.
If a political commercial highlighted this aspect of Helm's work in congress, then it would have served a valuable purpose to the voter.
Another aspect inherent in negative political advertising, whether good or bad, is its great effectiveness.
A prime example of this occurred in the 2002 Montana Senatorial race. Republican Senate candidate Mike Taylor, suspended his campaign after saying that he was too far behind in the polls to the incumbent Senator Max Baucus, D-Mont.
He was lagging behind in the polls, but his dropout also occurred after his opponent aired a controversial campaign ad that implicitly portrayed Taylor as a homosexual hairdresser and accused him of bilking a student loan program.
Taylor's case shows how powerful an ad can be and how dangerous these ads can be if they are misused.
It is also important to take all negative campaign ads with a grain of salt. They are by nature inflammatory, and the greater the accusation the greater the rise they intended to get.
At their best, these ads should awaken critical curiosity in the voter and inspire them to do research to find the right leaders. At their worst, these ads will point to the stupidity or the ineffectiveness of those publishing them.
Either way, negative political campaign ads,provide a valuable service to the voter and to the future.
PERSPECTIVES
Patrick Cady for the editorial board.
Personal responsibility, not sense of humor, shows maturity
adulthood.
Many would agree maturity is the most important factor in determining our arrival at
If we look at this reasonably, it is obvious that someone can be mature and still enjoy a good fart joke.
However, the definition of maturity is often subject to debate. Some say if you enjoy jackass and binge drinking, you are immature.
Maturity, to me, is the ability to take responsibility for your actions and treat other people with respect.
According to a recent study by the Polling Report, a national polling service these are the two values Americans feel are lacking most in today's society. It would
appear we are suffering from a gross lack of maturity among the populous.
GUEST COMMENTARY
I am compelled to agree after spending two years at KU. Everywhere I go, I have been engaging in social experiments to test the maturity level of my fellow students.
If any people are within 20 feet of a door I am opening, I hold it for them, eagerly awaiting their reaction. The results have been abysmal.The majority of people walk right through as if I were not even there, without so much as a smile or glance.
I see this behavior everywhere: people blowing smoke in others faces on Wescoe Beach; walking with their faces buried in papers or cell phones, tacitly demanding others make way; chatting or sleeping in class when they could easily not attend;
Steve Ducey
lburchfield@kansan.com
flicking cigarette butts or trash when a receptacle is but a few feet away; parking in handicapped spaces or fire lanes; roommates constantly leaving messes for others to clean.
In each of these actions there is an implicit assertion that the person doing the action actor is somehow "special" or
exempt from what should be a universal rule of conduct.
This is an illogical way to behave if everyone's rights are to be fulfilled.
The rights of one should not impinge on the rights of others. If so, rules of conduct are meaningless. In other words, no one is "special."
"Special" people, whether consciously or not, think they are more important and that others should work to service their wants and needs. When they break a rule, others should either take the blame or fix the problem. They fail to take responsibility for their actions and show an enormous lack of respect for the rights of others.
There is a name for people who behave like this. Most cultures refer to these people as children.
If we are to step into the world of adulthood, where we live not only to guarantee our rights but also the rights of others, more of us must become aware of and respect those rights. We live in a society with rules. These rules demand that we take a hit to our own ego for the benefit of everyone's freedom.
To act like you are all that matters is pure folly, selfishness, and immaturity. We are about to become adults, so it is high time we realized what our parents meant when they told us to grow up.
Ducey is an Overland Park sophomore in theatre and film.

Dinner party teaches students good etiquette

In case you forgot the manners your momma taught you, KU Career Services sponsor periodic etiquette dinners for students.
Last night, 100 students enjoyed a five-course meal and listened to the professional advice of Lisa Clements, of Cerner Corporation, and Corey Calvano, the head chef of the Hereford House, at the Kansas Union.
Clements briefed the students on appropriate behavior at the office and at work functions, including office parties. She said employees should look at office events as opportunities to meet people and become networking pros, instead of looking at them as
something they have to attend to
"kiss up" to people.
"Every person you meet is an opportunity to learn something new." Clements said.

She shared tips on how to introduce yourself, remember others' names and start conversations.
She also discussed the proper etiquette at work parties, including where to set drinks, and being careful with public displays of affection with your date.
"Think about your professional image and be mindful of it at every event you go to," she said.
David Hall, Wichita junior, said Clements' presentation was helpful in learning ways to create small talk and avoiding difficulty in conversations.
"I learned ways around having awkward moments if you forget
someone's name," Hall said.
Next, the students were served a dinner that included rolls, chicken noodle soup, salad, chicken kabobs and broccoli. Dessert was chocolate cake with whipped cream.

Career services coordinators and Calvano planned the menu together to include foods that could be difficult to eat.
Calvano taught the students how to handle those foods in a business situation.
"Don't eat cherry tomatoes — they're gonna squirt juice." Calvano said. He also said not to eat lobster, croutons, crackers, spaghetti or any long-noodle pasta.
Damian Walker, Wellington senior, and Deborah Rhoads, St. Charles, Mo., senior, wait for a dinner etiquette lesson to begin at the Kansas Room in the Kansas Union. University Career Services hosted the last night night to offer students an opportunity to learn the rules of business dining.
"Just don't eat it. You're gonna make a mess," he said.
Jennifer Jordan, business career coordinator, said the dinner was a good opportunity for students to practice etiquette in a non-threatening environment.

A little light could alleviate those winter blues

The sun triumphed over the clouds for a few precious hours Monday,breaking a gray streak that some students said had affected their moods and behaviors.
Mike Hannah, Lawrence senior, said he hadn't fallen into a depression, but his energy level had dwindled because of the lack of direct sunlight.
"I would sleep all day or wake up a few hours later than I usually would," he said. "The light definitely helps, but I don't really know why."
The answer may not be concrete, but one University of Kansas professor has developed a theory to explain Hannah's seasonal melancholy.
C. R. Snyder, Wright-distinguished professor of clinical psychology, pinpointed Hannah's sluggish tendencies to Mood Disorder with Seasonal Pattern commonly known as Seasonal Affective Disorder, or SAD. People with SAD experience the effects of periods or seasons with reduced amounts of light. Cloudy days psychologically impede people from thinking they can reach their goals, he said.
"I do think people don't per form as well," Snyder said.
SAD falls under Snyder's more encompassing "Hope Theory," which he has been tweaking since 1994. In his five published books about the theory, he describes hope as motivation that allows a person to find routes to achieve goals. According to the theory, periods of darkness reduce a person's ability to be creative and possibly a person's ability to generate goals altogether.
David Holmes, professor of psychology, said the absence of sunlight in the winter was, in most cases, a scapegoat for normal, cyclic mood swings.
"I think there's a bias in the reporting of it that leads us to believe it's more prevalent than it
really is," he said.
Holmes said people often blamed sluggish behavior on seasons known for lots of light as well.
"The data suggests that we also find people being sluggish in the summer," he said. "Oh, it's the heat, they say."
But a person doesn't have to simply accept the droldrums as a side-effect of the winter season, Snyder said. His book, The Psychology of Hope: You can get there from here, advocates phototherapy as a solution.
The book says exposing the eyes to a couple hours of bright light lifts the spirits within a few days. Snyder said several companies manufactured light-producing boxes to counter winter's blahs. One such product, a 10,000-watt, ultraviolet-free desk lamp from a company called Amjo, sells for $199.95 on www.sadlight.com.
"That's not some kind of bogus treatment," Snyder said. "It's actually legit."
Snyder said his work had been published in 30 languages, which allowed expansion of Hope Theory studies worldwide. He said studies in countries such as Norway, where the winters run longer than here in the United States, had supported his theory.

In anticipation of snowfall, campus organizations have begun their snow-coping tactics.

Grading policy CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
All other classes must have a class GPA between 2.8 and 3.4.
The GPA range allows for flexibility and should curtail grade aberrations from tough "Grinch" professors and easier "Santa Claus" professors, Hecker said.
"We wanted to set limits that we think are fairly flexible and do not prevent instructor discretion." Hecker said.
The mandatory curve hasn't affected grades significantly.
"From what I understand, the grades were basically the same as the curve anyway," Folsom said. "They just instituted it, so some people can't just take easier classes and come out with a higher GPA because of it."
said Carl Folsom, a Tonganoxie first-year law student.
Mandatory curves are not uncommon in law schools, Hecker said, and the grading policy at KU is not the strictest. He said more rigid grading curves require a certain distribution of grades, which means instructors have a set amount of A's, B's and C's to give students.

"From what I understand, the grades were basically the same as the curve anyway."
The grading policy could be worse, said Jon Davis, a Newton first-year law student. The established GPA range allows professors to grade students more fairly, he said.
"Overall, I think it's fair," Davis said.

Kansas to cut budget
The Associated Press
TOPEKA — The state must cut spending by $255 million to avoid a deficit on June 30, and the shortfall could be $1 billion by the end of the following budget year, economic forecasters said yesterday.
State officials and university economists also predicted the state would collect about $4.15 billion for a current budget of $4.42 billion.
The $4.15 billion figure is $364 million less than the $4.5 billion estimate forecasters made in March.
They also predicted the state will collect $4.38 billion during fiscal year 2004, which begins July 1, 2003. Under state and federal laws, the state must spend about $4.8 billion on programs and keep another $360 million in cash reserves.
Forecasters added their projected $255 million deficit to the $780 million gap between expected revenues and spending commitments in the next budget year.
"It's a billion dollar problem," State Budget Director Duane Goossen told reporters.

Elections CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
GOP gubernatorial candidate Tim Shallenburger is joined by wife Linda and daughter Candice as they listen to the election results at the Topeka Capital Plaza Hotel in Topeka. According to Associated Press projections, Shallenburger lost last night's election to Kathleen Sebelius 366,523 to 431,207.
Lindsey Gold/Kansar
underdog, but he was the rational and reasonable choice," Dourus said. "Phil Kline is a scary person."
Republican's loss tempers other victories
Confidence gave way to a subdued and watchful attitude at the Republican election party in Topeka last night, as those present gradually realized that they had won several races but not the governor's seat.
Four members of the KU College Republicans joined the crowd of about 200, which included candidates, family members, supporters and journalists waiting for state and nationwide election results at the Topeka Capital Plaza Hotel, 1717 SW Topeka Blvd.
KU College Republicans split up for the evening, with several attending Adam Taff's election party in Overland Park, while others hit the main party in Topeka.
Despite national media outlets such as CNN and CBS calling the election in favor of gubernational Candidate Kathleen Sebelius early in the evening, KU College Republicans kept up hope.
"It's still early," said Matt Flynn, the group's vice chair, when CBS and CNN claimed Sebelius as the winner with only a low percentage of the Kansas polls closed.
About 9 p.m., the victory speeches began, with Republican incumbent winner Secretary of State Ron Thornburgh leading the pack.
"Let's see what happens in an hour," the Lenexa junior said.
"I am Ron Thornburgh, and I am very excited to be your Secretary of State again," he said at the start of his victory speech. Thornburgh encouraged Republicans to not give up hope yet for winning the major races, since not all the polls had reported.
Despite having no opposition from the Democrats, re-elected Senator Pat Roberts was still humble.
"Some would say that we had an easy race, but we never looked at it that way." Roberts said. "Anyone that wants the public trust has to get out there and earn it, and it looks like we did."
In a later interview, Roberts
"Some would say that we had an easy race, but we never looked at it that way. Anyone that wants the public trust has to get out there and earn it,and it looks like we did."
Pat Roberts U.S. senator
said he had run his campaign as he would have if there had been a Democrat opposing him and that labels such as conservative or liberal did not really mean anything.
Roberts also said the Senate could do a lot for students at KU.
But even as new State Treasurer Lynn Jenkins, Congressman Jim Ryun and Insurance Commissioner Sandy Praeger celebrated their victories, KU College Republicans appeared anxious about the final outcome of the governor's race.
In the meantime, Adam Taff's crowd in Overland Park was excited when early results showed him as the winner, before The Associated Press projected Dennis Moore as the winner for the 3rd House District.
"Students want candid answers and they want to know what we're doing in Washington and how that affects their daily lives and their pocketbooks," he said.
"We really feel like we've done a lot of good work, and that all our campaigning and weekend work has paid off," said Justin McFarland, College Republicans Treasurer.
Atabout 10:15 p.m., Tim Shallenburger finally joined the Topeka party, having spent most of the evening upstairs in a hotel room. He took the stage to cheers from the audience and broke the news that he had conceded the governor's race to Kathleen Sebelius.
"I'm sorry we let you down, but we thought the cause was just," he said before praising Sebelius and her campaign and offering his help to Sebelius in the future.
He reminded the crowd that he would be State Treasurer for two more months and that there was still work to be done. He praised his running-mate Dave Lindstrom, calling him an "honest, hardworking, moral person."
"We should hope and pray that Kansas is better tomorrow than it was last week."
Shallenburger also briefly
"It's been a wonderful ride for 16 years for Tim Shallenburger," he said.
reflected on how and why he had become involved in politics.
KU College Republicans came away from the evening with mixed feelings, having won several key races for the state, but not the governor's seat.
"I'm slightly disappointed, but I'm not surprised," said group member Mark Sebesta, Overland Park senior.
He praised Sebelius' campaign but attributed much of her victory to good campaign funding. He said Shallenburger had won a tough primary election, but the money spent on that may have slowed him down in the long run.
"He gave it his best shot, but came up a bit short," said Flynn of KU College Republicans.
Flynn said that despite Sebelius' victory, she would still have to learn to work with a Republican legislature.
Daisy Hill students vote on home turf
Yesterday's elections were the first opportunity for many students on Daisy Hill to have a voice in state and national government.
Some of those students voted in Kansas elections but expressed doubts on whether their vote would influence the state's political climate.
Alicia Sanson, Phillipsburg sophomore, voted yesterday and said she voted for candidates based on their track record and reputation, not by their party lines.
Grant Douglas, Lane freshman, registered to vote on campus during Hawk Week and voted yesterday at Allen Field House. He was not optimistic that his vote would make a difference.
"I kind of hope for a change in the state," he said, "but I'm not sure whether it would happen or not."
Although she voted for both Democratic and Republican candidates for different offices, she said she didn't think her vote would carry much weight given the conservative nature of Kansas voters.
"As long as we have a bipartisan system, who wins elections is very trivial because candidates from either party will basically do the same thing."
Joe Loring
Overland Parkfreshman
Some out-of-state KU students voted in their states through absentee ballot. Julie Smith, second-year law student, said she had voted in her home state and had paid particular attention to district rather than state-wide elections.
"It doesn't seem like voting Democratic would change anything." Sanson said.
"I feel like my vote counts a lot more in those elections," said Smith, of Cook, Neb., "The votes are a lot closer."
Joe Loring, Overland Park freshman, said he did not vote because he didn't have faith in the country's bipartisan political system.
However, other Daisy Hill residents did not vote.
"As long as we have a bipartisan system, who wins elections is very trivial because candidates from either party will basically do the same thing." Loring said.
Like Loring, Adam Sherrill didn't vote. Sherrill said he paid particular attention to the Moore-Taff race in the 3rd district for the U.S. of House of Representatives. He said he regretted missing his chance to express his political beliefs.
"I've been kind of sick today," said Sherrill, Kansas City freshman. "I didn't realize that I missed my chance."

New priest wants to welcome all
ECM addition opens door to students, regardless of background
John Nowak/Kansan

Kansan staff writer
Lawrence has a new Catholic priest and he wants students to know his door is open to everyone.
Father Joseph Dang, of the Catholic Apostolic Church International, joined the Ecumenical Christian Ministries Oct. 1, preaching a 6 p.m. mass every Saturday and at noon on Sundays. He said there had been a low turn-out for his recent masses, but he expected attendance to grow in the future as students became more familiar with him.
Dang said he had talked with different student groups to make people aware of his presence on campus.
"My main goal is to try to reach all the students who have felt excluded or left out," Dang said.
Dang said his mass was presented as a traditional Catholic mass, but all baptized Christians were welcome to receive Communion.
He also said his masses were open to everyone, regardless of sexual orientation or life choices.
Dang said one of the differences between his church and the traditional Catholic church was that his church was not under the jurisdiction of the pope and did not promote Canon law.
PRIEST
Father Joseph Dang joined the Ecumenical Christian Ministries, 1204 Oread Ave., Oct. 1. Dang said he was raised as a Roman Catholic in a Vietnamese monastery before immigrating to Westminster, Calif., in 1988. He was ordained into the priesthood in September.
"Everyone is welcome at the table of God, no matter what."
Father Joseph Dang Catholic Apostolic Church Internationa, joined the Ecumenical Christian Ministries
"Everyone is welcome at the table of God," Dang said, "no matter what. To us God is open to all."
Dang said he planned to have a Vietnamese mass on the first Sunday of each month at Danforth Chapel, which is just north of Fraser Hall on campus.
Thad Holcombe, ECM pastor, said Dang was a good fit for ECM because it prided itself on being open to all, regardless of gender, sexual orientation or ethnicity.

Linh Ly, Topeka sophomore and president of the KU Vietnamese Student Association, said her group was glad to have Dang in town.
"He's helped us out a lot with support and by being at some of our events." Ly said. She said the VSA had about 40 members, but she did not know how many students would attend Dang's Sunday masses.
"He adds a way for Vietnamese and Asian students to come together and have conversations and experiences they might not have had before, and that's a lot of what ECM is about," Holcombe said.
to make students aware of the masses, but the group did not want to force an affiliation on its members.
Dang said he was raised as a Roman Catholic in a Vietnamese
monastery before immigrating to Westminster, Calif. in 1988. He was ordained into the priesthood in September.

Volleyball goes for 4 straight
By Jason Hwang
jhwang@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
to some people, records are made to be broken. For the Kansas volleyball team, some marks could fall tonight.
The Jayhawks will take their three-match winning streak to Lubbock, Texas when they play the Texas Tech Red Raiders (8-13 overall, 3-9 Big 12) tonight at 7 p.m.
Kansas has won two consecutive Big 12 road matches, but it is 0-2 in road games in the state of Texas this season.
Kansas (17-5 overall) is fifth in the Big 12 Conference at 8-5, the team's best conference record through 13 games since the beginning of the Big 12 in 1996. Its eight conference wins place the team in a tie with the 1999 squad for the most Big 12 wins in a season.
"Something like that is always an extra incentive," junior outside hitter Sarah Rome said. "It's awesome to break records, so if we can break another record this year it'll be one more great event to come."
The Jayhawks will attempt to win three consecutive conference road matches for the first time in Kansas history. The team will also attempt to win its fourth consecutive conference match for the first time in school history. The Jayhawks have won three consecutive Big 12 matches three times, including twice this season (Sept. 21-28 and Oct. 26 present). Kansas won its last match on Saturday in an upset sweep of then-No. 24 Texas Longhorns in Lawrence.
"We were very comfortable at Horesji on Saturday, but now we're going to be in front of a hostile crowd," coach Ray Bechard said. "Our mindset is going to

mave to change, from the standpoint of just trying to block out all the interference that surrounds you."
Kansas snapped a four-match losing streak to Texas Tech on Sept. 28 when they won in a 3-1 sweep in Lawrence. Freshman middle blocker Josiane Lima had 18 kills and Kansas held Texas Tech's Melissa McGehee to only four kills.
Freshman middle blocker Josiane Lima is sixth in the Big 12 in kills (3.77 per game), points (4.81 per game), and blocks (1.11 per game). Lima's 264 kills rank her second on the freshman single-season kill list (Catalina Suarez, 1985, 301 kills). Rome is sixth in the conference in digs, averaging 3.21 per game.
Texas Tech has lost six of its last seven matches. They lost Saturday at Nebraska in three games. Sophomore setter Laura Grote is second in the Big 12 in assists (12.65). Sophomore outside hitter Kelly Johnson's 4.61 kills per game average is third in the conference.
"We have to keep that momentum from the Texas game and go down to Tech and play really well." Rome said. "They're a good team who's going to fight for every point. So we can't go down there cocky or underestimate them or they'll come back."

Graves not on team but sees court time

Kansan sportswriter
In Monday night's exhibition game, junior Jeff Graves scored eight points, grabbed six rebounds, blocked a shot and recorded a steal in 10 minutes of action.
Pretty good for a guy who isn't even a member of the team.
Graves could have easily switched jerseys and played for the EA Sports All-Stars if he wanted to because he has not yet passed the required running tests to become a Jayhawk basketball player, coach Roy Williams said. Graves still has no true team affiliation.
"He's still not officially on our team," he said. "He's still got some running to do."
The running test, a tool for coaches to gauge the physical condition of players at the start of the season, takes place annually on the first day of classes in August. Players had to complete at least six and one-half laps around the Memorial Stadium track in 12 minutes. Freshman walk-on Steven Vinson won the race, recording seven and three-fourths laps. Junior forward Bryant Nash finished second and senior guard Kirk Hinrich took third.
After a car accident over the summer, Graves found his practicing and conditioning time limited. When he arrived in Lawrence in August, he

When Kansas linebacker Kevin Kane takes the field Saturday against Nebraska in Lincoln, Neb., nobody will blame the freshman if he is in awe of the sea of red that engulf Memorial Stadium.
Kane grew up a fan of Cornhusker football because his father, John Kane, played for Nebraska during the mid 1970s and earned a letter in 1975.
"I wanted to be a part of something good here," said Kane during yesterday's press conference. "Hopefully, with the new coaches, in a couple of years we'll turn it around."
After a career at Rockhurst High School in Kansas City, Mo., Kane said it did not take long to decide which college he wanted to attend.
Kane began practice this fall behind other linebackers such as seniors Greg Cole and Leo Etienne, who were both projected to play the most minutes at the
linebacker position.
Kane knew the linebacker position was one of the deepest positions on the team, and he was prepared to do whatever it took to put himself in position to garner playing time.
"I figured I'd just come in and play hard, show what I've got," Kane said. "The coaches would put me where they want me."
It did not take long for Kansas coach Mark Mangino to realize Kane would be a freshman he could count on, especially after sophomore linebacker Banks Floodman was injured in the Iowa State game on Aug. 31, taking him out for the season.
"He understands how to play football," Mangino said. "Even when he's outmatched he finds a way to make a tackle. He's a very intelligent guy and has a great grip on how to play this game as a true freshman."

Mangino should not let Whittemore play
If Kansas quarterback Bill Whitemore plays another down the rest of this season, Kansas athletics director Al Bohl should suspend and fine coach Mark Mangino.

Whittemore's one-man running-and-passing show has been the only reason the team would work on building strength and fitness. They will be lifting weights three times a week, as well as running on the track and up the stairs in Memorial Stadium, according to Van Ruyven. She also said the scheduled workout times were reduced during the off-season from 20 hours a week to eight hours.

Rowers motivated by loss

Despite this past weekend's loss to Kansas State, members of the University of Kansas rowing team plan to keep their heads up and look forward to a strong off-season of workouts.
With the fall races at an end and no more competitions until the spring, only individual workouts remain in sight for the rowers.
"We have a lot of work to do this winter," said Head Coach Rob Catloth. "And we don't want to get beat by Kansas State in the spring when it counts."
Catloth echoed her sentiments.
Junior Jen Van Ruyven was disappointed that the team did not win at least one race last weekend.
"We didn't row to the best of our ability," he said. "Especially on the varsity-8, where we got out of our rhythm and let them row past us, which shouldn't happen."
The rematch with Kansas State in the spring will take place April 19 in Manhattan.
"There are improvements we've made that I'm pleased about, we just didn't win the race," Catloth said. "There are other improvements we need to make."
During the winter, team members increase the weight they lift and perform fewer repetitions to build more muscle.
"We need to work a lot harder in the off-season and winter," she said. "Everyone is going to need to do workouts on their own."

Today's Birthday (Nov. 6).

Aries (March 21-April 19) Today is a 7. Make time for an outing with friends, even if it's only a lunch date. Getting a break will help you prepare for a tough assignment Friday.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) Today is a 6. Better stay involved in the next big domestic purchase. Point out what's affordable and what's not. Your partner isn't as good at that as you are.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) Today is a 6. Allow your experience to be overruled by somebody else's enthusiasm. Just because something's never worked for you before, that doesn't mean it never will. Atrformation is taking place.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) Today is a 6. Now comes the hard part, where you figure out what to do next. The old rules may not work in a new game. Better find out what the new rules are.
P
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Today is a 6.
Upcoming changes should turn out well for you, although you may not immediately understand how. Having friends helps. Support them however you can.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) Today is a 5.
You may have an uncanny ability to figure out what's going on before anybody else does. If so, tell the people who'll use the information for the benefit of all. In other words, the good guys.

LION
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Today is a 7. It may be time to bring a rocky relationship to a close. Being willing to end it could be a good catalyst for change, too one way or another.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Today is a 7.
A financial setback could temporarily throw you off stride if you let it. Pretend everything's okay as you rearrange your holdings, and pretty soon everything will be.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Today is a 7. Do you have the feeling you ought to be doing something, but you don't know what? Well, maybe the emergency hasn't happened yet. Be extra alert through Thursday.

Cryogenics hearing delayed
$ \surd $
The Associated Press
Find it on Kansan.com.
INVERNESS, Fla. - A court hearing over whether Ted Williams' daughter can challenge her half brother's desire to have the Hall of Famer's body cryogenically preserved was postponed for a second time yesterday.
The hearing had been scheduled for today in Citrus County Circuit Court. No new date had been set.
Bobby-Jo Williams Ferrell wants to have the court decide whether her father's ashes should be scattered in the ocean off Florida, as he declared in his 1996 will.
But his youngest children, John Henry and Claudia Williams, maintain they signed a handwritten pact with their father in November 2000 agreeing that their bodies would be frozen.
John Henry Williams had his father's body moved to a Scottsdale, Ariz., cryogenics lab shortly after his death on July 5 at age 83. Cryogenic supporters say bodies might one day be thawed and brought back to life. Most experts say that is highly unlikely.
Wednesday's hearing was to determine whether to dismiss Ferrell's motion to have the court determine which would take precedence: the will asking for cremation or the note asking for cryogenic freezing.
The hearing had first been scheduled for Oct. 3, but was pushed back a month because of scheduling conflicts.
At the time, Bob Goldman, an attorney for John Henry Williams, acknowledged that the delay would give the parties more time to negotiate an agreement.
Sooners return to Texas A&M
The Associated Press
NORMAN, Okla. — Top-ranked Oklahoma goes to Texas A&M this week, one of the toughest venues in college football and a place that generates only fond memories for the Sooners.
In their last visit two years ago, the top-ranked and unbeaten Sooners overcame a 10-point deficit in the fourth quarter to win 35-31, silenced a record crowd and propelled themselves to the national title.
Led by quarterback Iosh Heupel, they swept through the month of October with victories over Texas, Kansas State and Nebraska to move to the top of the rankings.
"We already had a special feeling going into the game, and that feeling's what gives you an opportunity to make the plays we made to win that game," coach Bob Stoops said yesterday.
shaky games early this season — leading only 3-0 a halftime against Tulsa and having to rally in the fina minutes to beat Alabama and Missouri.
Like the 2000 team, Oklahoma has had some
Since then, Oklahoma has rolled over Iowa State and Colorado. Just like 2000, when the Sooners had an open date before playing Nebraska, they had a week off to get ready for Colorado.
"It's kind of uncanny how it's all unfolded, but we still have a long way to go," said Mike Stoops, codefensive coordinator. "This is a huge game."
Bob Stoops said this team was more sure of itself than it was a year ago, when Oklahoma stayed in the national title picture until losing to Oklahoma State in the final game of the regular season. The Sooners' ground game is stronger than at any time in four years under Stoops, and the defense continues to be outstanding.
"We like what we're doing." Stoops said. "I like the attitude, the way we're preparing.

LAWRENCE — The Golf Course Superintendents Association of America is considering moving its 22,000member organization's headquarters from Lawrence.
The association said yesterday it would begin soliciting offers from cities that would like to be the organization's new home.
"When you think of golf organizations, they are usually located in big golf destinations like Florida, California and Arizona," said Steve Mona, the association's chief executive.
"We have had to ask ourselves whether we could accomplish some of our goals more easily if we were located in one of those golf-centric areas."
He also said the group will consider staying in Lawrence.

Chiefs, Vikings cleared; collusion charges dropped
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The NFL Players Association has dismissed all claims regarding collusion charges against the Kansas City Chiefs and Minnesota Vikings.
The association had charged the teams with colluding in regards to their 2002 first-round draft picks.
The collusion charges were lodged when the players and their agents failed to come to terms with the teams. Sims did not sign until the end of training camp and McKinnie did not agree to terms with the Vikings until Oct. 31.
The next day, special master Jack Friedenthal informed all parties concerned he had dismissed all claims "with prejudice."

Golfer poised to advance in rankings
By Ryan Greene
rgreene@kansan.com
Kansan Sportswriter
It is fairly safe to say that coach Ross Randall's goal of keeping senior Chris Marshall moving up in the national rankings will be fulfilled.
Members of the Kansas Men's golf team made a push in yesterday's final round to finish sixth at The Prestige 2002 in La Quinta, Calif. Marshall recorded his first individual win of the year to end the fall season. He shot three rounds consecutively under par to finish with a tally of 207 (-9) at the par-72 La Quinta Resort Mountain Course.
"I am very delighted with Chris' finish," Randall said. "I am not sure that his tee-to-green play was the best that it could be, but he definitely putted the ball well."
Marshall is poised for a jump in the Golfweek national collegiate rankings, which ranked him 34th heading into the event.
KU golf
Texas Christian University's Adam Rubinson finished second place in the individual standings, one stroke behind Marshall. Texas Christian University took home the team title, finishing 15 strokes ahead of University of California-Irvine, which finished second place.
After finishing in sixth place at The Nelson-Stanford Invitational last week, junior Tyler Hall ended this week's tournament in a tie for ninth
place, shooting a one-under-par score of 215.
Sophomore Andrew Price landed in a tie for 52nd place with a three-round score of 228 (+12). Rounding out the roster for the Jayhawks were freshmen Pete Krsnich and Jason Sigler. Krsnich finished at 16-over to tie for 64th place, while Sigler's score of 236 put him at 76th place.
"The team struggled with the exception of Marshall and Hall,"
Randall said. "We tied for sixth in a strong field, so there is not much to complain about."
The team has completed the fall half of its schedule and will resume play in February. The team will continue to practice during its break from competition.
"It makes it so hard when the range is closed, when we have to drive to K.C. to get practice, and you don't want to sit out in the cold and hit balls for two hours," Marshall said. "Coach and I put a goal together that by the middle of the spring we'll be ready to go into the Big 12 tournament, then regionals, and make it to nationals."

Coach pleased with preparations for season

The action off the field for the Kansas softball team has been quite eventful recently, as Kansas City businesswoman Cheryl Womack donated $2 million for a new softball facility to replace Ijavawk Field.
But not much has happened on the field.
"This is probably our most
down time of year." Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said. "As far as softball, we'll have to wait until we get back on the field in January."
It's been close to a month since the team finished up its 8-3-1 fall exhibition campaign, and, just like its baseball brethren across the parking lot, the squad can have only four players practicing together at a time under NCAA regulations.
During the fall season, the team may only work out eight
nours a week. Bunge said six of the hours went to conditioning.
The coach said she had been pleased with the progress of the younger players and their development because of their agility and weight-lifting drills.
The first full workout day for the squad is Jan. 10. While the rest of the student body is at home for a final week of winter break, the squad will participate in a minicamp.
Four weeks later, the Jayhawks
will kick off the regular season on the road against Central Florida for three games Feb. 7-9.
"We'll basically hit the ground running," Bunge said.
During the 12 preseason games, Bunge used an assortment of lineups to get a good idea of each player's abilities. She said the normal starting lineup probably would not be unveiled until the end of February.

Nebraska vows to overcome tough loss to Texas
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — The Nebraska football team, while not at all happy with Saturday's last-minute loss to Texas, is not dwellings on what might have been.
The Cornhuskers had a chance
to beat the Longhorns, who are ranked No. 4 this week, in the closing seconds Saturday.
But quarterback Jammal Lord's pass intended for freshman split end Mark LaFlore was intercepted by Texas' Nathan Vasher at the 1-yard line and the Longhorns escaped with a 27-24
win.
"There really are only two directions you can take," Solich said. "You can go down a path of bouncing back and trying make sure that every time you step on the field you're working at getting better ... and trying to become the football team that you want to
become.
Nebraska, even with an inexperienced offensive line, a new quarterback and underclassmen peppered across the depth chart, came into the season with high expectations but dropped out of the AP Top 25 for the first time since 1981.
Soccer club earns trip to nationals
By Steve Vockrodt

Kansan sportswriter
The University of Kansas men's club soccer team will advance to the National Club Sports League Championship Tournament the weekend of Nov.21.
The team qualified not by winning a playoff game, but because of its regular season record.
After playing three games in the regional tournament, heavy rains in Austin, Texas, forced a cancellation of the remaining games. Representatives from each team in the tournament met with the NCSL governing body to determine which two teams would advance by merit.
The committee could not argue with KU's credentials, including a 10-1 conference record, a No.1 conference and regional ranking, and scoring 54 goals and allowing only 15 in the regular season. KU was selected to advance along with regional powerhouse Rice University.
"We were the top team going into the tournament; it was a no-brainer for the committee," graduate student Cedric Sunray said.
The team defeated Texas A&M in its first match 4-2. After a lethargic first half, KU held on to a two point lead fueled by a two-goal performance from Sean Murray.
The next game pitted the two top-ranked teams in the region, KU and Rice.
Despite Scott Reynolds' first tournament goal and concerted
"We were the top team going into the tournament; it was a no brainer for the committee"
Cedric Sunray graduate student
efforts from Aaron Law and goalkeeper Chris Hartley, KU fell to Rice 2-1.
Rice started strong with two early goals but KU dominated the second half, coming within one goal. KU suffered its second loss of the season because of several failed scoring attempts.
"I can't even count how many opportunities we missed," Sunray said. "Their goalkeeper was all over the place."
KU's showing was enough to convince the NCSL committee to send KU to the national championship tournament in Bakersfield, Calif. The team will practice all week before learning its bracket, likely by Friday.
"I think at this point, practice will be ridiculously intense," Sunray said.
The team will need as much training as possible because it could face national championship contenders Brigham Young University, Cornell and Virginia, among others.
The team has discussed tentative plans with Al Bohl, Kansas athletics director, to be honored at halftime of the Nov. 16 football game against Oklahoma State.

- The content is open to current KU students only. Those selected as winners will be required to show a valid student ID.
• Contests must submit their applications on the form printed in The University Daily Kansan or on clear photocopies of the official form. Photocopies of the forms are available at the classified counter of the University Daily Kansan, first floor of Stauffer-Flint Hall.

• Entries may be mailed to Bick the Kansan, The University Daily Kansan, 1435 jayhawk Blvd., Lawrence, Kc 60545. Mailed entries must be received by noon the Friday before the games in question. No late entries will be accepted.
• Five winners will be selected at random from entries that select more correct games than the representative for the Kansan. Note: If there are fewer than five, the remainder will be selected nomin, first who they tied and, if necessary, all entries.
• The five winners will be notified by e-mail the following Monday before midnight. If you winner fails to reply to the notification by e-mail before midnight Tuesday, the Kansan has the right to select another "winner" from the "winning" pool. No more than 5 winners will be selected each week. However, the Kansan has under no obligation to present five each week.

• Any decision by the Kansan judges is final.
• Kan萨 employees are not eligible

The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Bars and restaurants that try to entice customers by showing Paulie Walnuts, Ralphie Cifaretto and the rest of The Sopranos gang on Sunday nights are hearing from another type of enforcer.
HBO lawyers are sending out letters telling them to turn the television sets off.
HBO stops restaurant promos
"I got whacked!" said Frankie Janisch, owner of "Frankie J's" restaurant in Chicago, who received a cease-and-desist letter from HBO four days after the Chicago Tribune wrote about his Sunday night promotion surrounding the hit mob drama.
He's no longer showing episodes of The Sopranos on his
Frankie Janisch

restaurant's televisions.
As a pay-cable service, HBO is only supposed to be shown in private homes and hotels, said Jeff Cusson, a spokesman for the network.
HBO is frequently on the lookout for people who use their signals publicly, particularly to show high-profile boxing matches. But with The Sopranos and Sex and the City as big favorites, they've become the subject of promotions, too. The season-opening episode of The Sopranos in September drew the largest audience in the network's 30-year history.
While there's no actual law against showing HBO's signal publicly, Cusson said people who get HBO through their cable or satellite provider agree to follow those rules.
He said HBO would be in violation of its own agreements with movie companies if the network knew its signal was being seen in public and didn't do anything about it.
Establishments that persist showing HBO programs despite the cease-and-desist letter could be liable for civil penalties.
Ironically, Cusson said, HBO itself is planning some restaurant promotions for The Sopranos that will feature visits from cast members — and they'll bring a tape of the show with them.

Graves did not participate in the Late Night scrimmage and he was not introduced as a player on the team.
"It remains to be seen whether I would continue playing him when the regular season gets here if he hasn't passed his test yet," Williams said. "He'll run it several times and when he decides to make it he'll make it and life will be a lot easier. If it was me I'd just go ahead and make it and get it off of me."
But when he entered the game on Monday, it seemed as if Graves had finally passed the conditioning test that had hampered him.
Apparently, though, he has not.

Kansas sophomore Wayne Simien said that Graves' play on Monday was what he expected,
"I think he played well, but he still has a lot of things to work on."

"It will be a long winter out there 'cause it's cold as the dickens," Williams said. "We try to make it good and cold and windy and sleet and freezing rain. I'm not going to give in so he might as well just go ahead and make it."

urdy against Kansas State. Mangino put him in the game after the Wildcats led the Jayhawks 30-0.
After making the fourth-most tackles for Kansas in the game, the Kansas coaching staff
named Kane defensive player of the week.
Defensive honors were commonplace for Kane at Rockhurst - he was named all-state his senior year after his school record of 116 tackles.
Now that Kane has made the jump to the Big 12 Conference from high school football, he
said he was still adjusting to the increased ability of the athletes.
"The guys are so much bigger and faster at this level," Kane said. "The other thing is the time issue that goes into preparing for all these games."
For Kane, walking out of the tunnel at Lincoln's stadium will conjure up memories of his
childhood cheering for the Big Red, but he will be all business once the whistle blows.
"I'm sure it will hit me when I get there," Kane said, "but I'm going to go in there, have a good time and hopefully play as good as I can do."

son to watch Kansas football this season.
Next year, Whittemore will be a senior and will likely be even better — if Mangino will let him heal enough to get there.
"If I could convince our medical staff, I'd wheel him out there next week if I could," Mangino said after Kansas State blasted the Whittemore-less 'Hawks 64-0 last Saturday. "I think there's a chance it may happen. If there's a chance he can (play) without any further injury, he'll be out there."
There's, um, a few problems with this line of thinking. First of all, does Mangino know his team is 2-8? The season is over. Not
only are the Jayhawks mathematically eliminated from bowl consideration, Saturday's game at Nebraska wouldn't be winnable if Kansas had Kurt Warner under center.
If everything broke right, the Hawks could conceivably pull an upset in the season finale against 4-4 Oklahoma State. So essentially, Mangino is willing to risk his most important player's long-term health for the glory of finishing 3-9.
Second, what good is a medical staff if Mangino can "convince" them to change their medical opinion? Why doesn't Mangino just make the diagnosis himself?
Third, of course there's a chance Whittemore could play without further injury. There's
also a chance that if you get shot in the torso,you may not die,but most people would decline the chance to find out.
Whittemore's injury is nothing to be fooling around with. The medial collateral ligament, or MCL, is a band of tissue on the inner part of the knee that helps prevent the leg from moving sideways. There are three types of MCL sprains, ranging from a Grade I ligament stretch to Grade III, a complete ligament tear.
No one on the Kansas staff has specifically described the severity of Whittimore's MCL tear, but at this point, it doesn't matter. Players with a "torn" anything should not be playing in meaningless games.
Mangino's handling of his
quarterbacks in his first season has been unbelievably poor. First, he somehow concluded that Zach Dyer was more worthy to begin the season at starting quarterback than Whittimore.
But throwing a crippled Whittemore back onto the field would be the worst decision of all — it would suggest Mangino is incredibly shortsighted and doesn't have the patience needed to build a football program from scratch.

Ramadan a time for reflection
Asma Rehman, Kansas City, Mo., senior, and Fouzia Haq, New York City senior, break their Ramadan fast with a meal of samosas (potato-filled dough) and raita (yogurt sauce).

Muslim students say fasting and meditation add meaning to life
By Aaron Passman
apassman@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Some students might skip a meal if they're in a hurry, but many Islamic students at the University of Kansas will be fasting from sunrise to sunset for the next month in observance of Ramadan.
The fast of Ramadan occurs during the ninth month of the Muslim calendar year, which is believed to be when the Holy Quran was given to the Muslim people.
Students observing Ramadan are forbidden to eat or drink anything between dawn and dusk and are not allowed to smoke or engage in sexual relations.
Ramadan started at sunrise, yesterday and will end in approximately a month when the next lunar cycle begins.
Fouzia Haq said it was very hard to observe Ramadan in a college environment, but she tried to focus on self-evaluation and reflection instead of worrying about little things like food.
"More than not eating, the hardest part is self-evaluation and realizing that you're not where you want to be in life," said Haq, New York City senior, "but that's why we have a whole month to work on it and then implement it through the year."
Haq said Ramadan was a time for Muslims to revive their religious spirit and realize in retrospect what they had
done in the past year.
"It's an important time to focus on religion and help the less fortunate and really be aware of your actions," she said. "It's easier to implement Islam into your life during Ramadan because it helps revive and recycle that foundation."
Haq said that, in addition to self-evaluation, during Ramadan she tried to re-establish connections with other
Muslim students on campus. She said she and her roommate Asma Rehman planned to invite many of their Muslim friends over to their apartment to break the fast at some point during the month of Ramadan.
Falestine Afani Ruzik, Minneapolis, Kan. junior, said Ramadan was a very important time for her because she tried

Student senate awards funds to Headquarters

Headquarters Counseling Center is moving uptown — but for a price.
The non-profit counseling, education and information center moved last January from their old location, a house in a residential neighborhood on Massachusetts Street, to an office building downtown.
The new property has significant benefits. Unlike the old location, it's accessible for people who use wheelchairs and
its closer quarters allow volunteers and staff to better communicate with one another, said Wendy Leedy, Headquarters development director.
But higher rent and moving costs left Headquarters staff scrambling to find funds, Leedy said, which put her and Headquarters Director Marcia Epstein in front of Student Senate last night.

SLAB: voter registration increases in students
By Louise Stauffer

The Student Legislative Awareness Board reported 3,428 new registered voters this year, resulting in a 70 percent increase of registered KU student voters since the last election in 2000.
"We think what we did had a tremendous effect," said Jeff Allmon, co-chair of the organization.
Complications came with the increase. The rise in registered voters resulted in an overload, which caused some registration forms to be absent from voting lines.

Those provisional ballots did not go into yesterday's count. The ballots, which were being held at the county clerk's office, might be counted to decide close elections such as in the attorney general race between Phill Kline and Chris Biggs, Allmon said.

Activists challenge sex-crime law
By Katie Nelson
knelson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The Womyn's Empowerment Action Coalition, a University of Kansas feminist organization, is planning a trip to the capitol in Topeka to show support for a jailed Kansas man, and to protest the sex crime law the group says is unfairly keeping him imprisoned.
Two years ago, Matthew Limon was jailed for giving consensual oral sex to a then-14 year-old boy while both were students at a Paola residential school for developmentally disabled youth.
Members of Queers and Allies and Delta Force have agreed to help the WEAC in the protest, which is being put off until January, when the new legislative session begins.
As a result, Limon, 20, received a 17-year-two-month sentence for sodomy from a Miami County judge. Had either Limon or the boy been female, the maxi-

enacted,"

mum sentence would have been one year and three months.
Mike O'Neal
The protesting KU groups argue that Limon would have been released by now if it weren't for his sexuality, which doesn't allow him to be protected by the state's Romeo and Juliet law.
Nicknamed for William Shakespeare's play, the law was created in 1999 by Kansas legislators who wanted to differentiate consensual teen-age sexual relationships from situations where older adults exploited minors. The law
covers consensual sexual relations between a person 19 and under and a person in an age range of 14 to 16, if the two parties are less than four years apart. It does not apply to homosexual teenagers, who instead receive the same legal treatment as adult offenders.
By jailing Limon, the legislature is "demonizing" homosexuality, Lea Burgess-Carland, the WEAC member coordinating the protest, said.
Rep. Mike O'Neal, chairman of the Kansas House Judiciary Committee, said he agreed to a certain extent.
The law intentionally differentiates between gay and straight sexual acts because many Kansans aren't ready to go against their religious teachings, he said to the Associated Press.
"This distinction, the same-sex, opposite sex distinction, has been on the books since our criminal code was enacted," O'Neal, R-Hutchinson, said.

Store still open for business after woman backs into wall
Jiffy Lube was open for business yesterday, although a car crashed through the side of the building and stopped in its lobby early yesterday morning.
Eugene Ross, manager of the business at 2415 Iowa St. said a man had asked a woman who was with him to drive home his 1983 Volvo with a standard transmission because he had been drinking.
"She must have confused first gear with reverse because she reversed right into my lobby," he said.
Ross said he estimated the damage at $10,000. He said the accident had destroyed his lobby, breaking a glass window and door and two walls. He opened his business at 9 a.m. after cleaning up the damage. Because the damage is mostly to the lobby, he said customers shouldn't be affected.
"People won't be able to sit anywhere, but I'll pull out some chairs, and we'll make do," he said.
Woman in stable condition after accident with truck
A 57-year-old Topeka woman remains hospitalized in stable condition after a truck-pedestrian accident yesterday morning at the intersection of Seventh and New Hampshire streets, Lawrence Police Sgt. Mike Patrick said.
Margaret Todd, 30. Lawrence resident, was driving south on New Hampshire Street and turned left onto Seventh Street when she struck Janice Curtis, who was crossing Seventh Street in the crosswalk at 9:49 a.m. yesterday, Patrick said.
Curtis was taken by ambulance to Lawrence Memorial Hospital and was then transported by air ambulance to the University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, Kan.
Patrick said Lawrence police had not issued any citations yet and were conducting a full investigation of the accident. He said police were investigating whether alcohol had been a contributing factor.

Former Florida officer convicted in clerk's death
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - A former police officer was convicted yesterday of conspiracy and a second federal charge in the killing of a convenience store owner.
Sami Safa was slain in July 1998 after leaving a bank with $51,000 to cash payroll checks for his customers.
The 15 federal charges against Karl Waldon grew out of a federal investigation into allegations that Jacksonville police officers tipped off drug dealers about raids.
Witnesses testified Waldon stopped Safar with his patrol car, drove to a parking lot and choked Safar unconscious with a rope. The medical examiner could not determine the cause of death.
The jury convicted Waldon, 39, of conspiracy and intimidating and injuring.

Senior class selects finalists for annual H.O.P.E Award
By Jenna Goepefert
jgoepefert@kansan.com
kansan staff writer
Election season continued yesterday at the University of Kansas — this time for the H.O.P.E Award.
Seniors voted to select finalists for the Honor for the Outstanding Progressive Educators Award. Voters could choose up to three of the 17 nominees and seven were named finalists yesterday afternoon.
"To be recognized really does mean a lot," said Barbara Ballard, associate vice provost and senior class adviser. "I don't think anybody takes it for granted."
Members of the Board of Class
Officers collected ballots from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. yesterday in front of Strong Hall.
About 5,700 seniors were eligible to vote. 192 votes were cast.
The seven finalists will interview Monday with senior class officers and the senior advisory board, which will determine the winner. Ballard said interviews would last about 20 minutes and would consist of 11 questions.
Melanie Naasz, Wichita senior, stopped to cast her vote as she passed the table yesterday afternoon.
"I just saw 'seniors' and I thought maybe I should check this out," Naasz said.
She recognized several professors on the ballot and said the award was a good chance for seniors to demonstrate their knowledge of the University.
"Seniors know what's going on," she said. "We've reached the point where we have a definite say in what makes a good teacher."
Bill Tuttle, professor of American studies, won the award in 2000. He was in New York for the KU-St. John's basketball game when the chancellor delivered the good news.
"I wanted to celebrate winning, so we went out drinking until 4 in the morning, and I didn't make it back in time," he said.
His son, Andy Tuttle, went to

the presentation ceremony and accepted the award on his father's behalf.
Tuttle said the highlight of the award process was his interview with the Board of Class Officers.
"It was really exhilarating," he
said. "We were just kicking around some important ideas about teaching and student life and the obligations of a professor to his students."
Stephen Ilardi, assistant professor of psychology, is one of this year's finalists. He said he was stunned and honored to hear of his nomination.
"I think a lot of times, with awards at the University, the nominations come from administrators or colleagues," Ilardi said. "This one comes from the students, and I think that's the greatest possible compliment."
The graduating class of 1959 created the H.O.P.E Award program. This year's winner will be
the 45th recipient of the award, which has been presented every year since the program's inception. Three awards were given in 1972.
The winner will receive a monetary award and recognition on a plaque in the Kansas Union. The winner will be announced at the Kansas-Oklahoma State football game on Nov. 16.
"I've been here a long time and seen a lot of H.O.P.E Award winners get that award," Tuttle said. "I'd always been envious. I think some of the best teachers in the world teach here and get that award."
Committee searches again for new admissions director
Edited by Amy Schmitz
By Kyle Ramsey
kramsey@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A search committee will try for a second time to recruit a new director of admissions, a University of Kansas official announced Monday.
Monday. The committee, led by Richard C. Morrell, University Registrar, aims to appoint a new director before the end of the academic year.
"We'd like to announce sometime in April or early May," Morrell said.
The first committee, which convened in April after the resignation of former director Alan Cerveny, ceased its search in August when the finalists withdrew from the search or accepted jobs at other universities.
Not only will the University be forced to contribute staff hours to another search, but it will also
have to pay for another round of advertising, transportation and lodging for finalists. Morrell said these three factors were the most costly in the original search.
"It's unfortunate that it didn't result in us being able to hire a candidate," he said. But, he said, it would have been unfair to hire someone just because the University had spent the money.
The search committee remains virtually intact for the second search. A few original members have left because of scheduling conflicts — for example, a student representative who served on the original board is studying abroad and a professor is on sabbatical.
monti welcomed the change in plans.
Lisa Pinamonti, formerly the associate director of recruitment since 2000, has served as interim director of admissions since April. Her term as interim was extended after the first search was canceled, but Pina-
"It's been an incredible opportunity for me," she said.
Getting to know more people within the KU and Big 12 communities as director has allowed Pinamonti to gain more experience than she might have in her previous role.
"I have a larger role with more responsibility." she said.
Pinamonti said she was eligible to apply for the permanent position,but had not decided whether she would.
Cerveny resigned to become the dean of admissions at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
The director of admissions oversees the areas of recruitment, applications, awarding of scholarships to new students and campus visits for prospective students.

BLSA food drive to help people through Thanksgiving, holidays
By Kelly McNearney
kmcnearney@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Members of the Black Law Students Association at the University of Kansas are not comfortable with the idea of some people's Thanksgiving being another day filled with hunger and bitter cold.
Dan Cranshaw, Kansas City Mo., law student and organization president, said that last year the drive had collected enough food to feed over 1,500 people at
That's why members of student organization are collecting canned foods and money to benefit the needy in Lawrence. BLSA began its 12th annual Thanksgiving food drive this week and will collect donations until Friday, Nov.22.
five local social service organizations including Pelathe, ECKAN and the Salvation Army.
"We're looking to do as much as we can to exceed that goal this year." Cranshaw said.
The largest single contribution last year came from Lathrop & Gage law firm, Kansas City, Mo., with a $150 donation.
"We think very highly of Dan and knew he was involved in this drive and that it was a worthy cause," said Jonathan Haden, chairman of the recruiting committee at Lathrop & Gage.
Muneer Ahmad, Lenexa law student, said many local businesses had made monetary contributions to the drive, but that students had mostly donated canned food. He said faculty had also supported the
drive.
Tapping into students' appetites, BLSA motivates law students to donate to the drive through a competition for a pizza party. First year law students are broken into small sections of 20 to 25 people.The section that gathers the most donations will receive a pizza party.
He said the group tried to ensure that it provided enough food to last through Thanksgiving and into the holiday season.
Grocery carts, donated by SuperTarget, are placed throughout the Law School, in Green Hall, to collect canned food. The drop sites will remain until Nov. 22 when the drive ends.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Missionaries misrepresent social state of Netherlands
The Oct. 28 article by Aaron Passman, "Couple speaks about missionary work," stated several inaccuracies about the Netherlands. First, it said that only 0.2 percent of the country is exposed to Christianity, in reality 33 percent of the Dutch are Roman Catholic while 25 percent are Protestant according to the Encyclopedia Britannica.
It seems since most Dutch Christians have different views about how to deal with social issues than the missionaries they cannot be considered to be Christians.
Second, Amsterdam is not a dangerous crime ridden city of depraved inhabitants. It is one of the most beautiful, friendly and safe cities in the world.
The missionaries in the article were ignorant of this because they can not imagine a society that is tolerant of the so called vices of drug use, prostitution and sexual freedom could consist of nice, normal and friendly citizens. In reality the United States could learn a lot from the Dutch in how it handles social issues.

Arrowhead is best place to hold KU-MU football game
I know the Lawrence business community has long argued against having the KU-MU game at Arrowhead Stadium where both schools could sell the game as part of their season ticket packages every year. And I understand their position, but it seems to me that the majority opinion would be that it is a great idea.
It seems it would financially benefit the program at the University of Kansas to sell the game as a "home game" every year instead of every other year, making five home conference games one season and four the next.
It would breathe new life into the rivalry, put nearly 80,000 fans in Arrowhead annually for a great show... and the KU band could be safely tucked away in the safety of the KU section and march on the KU end of the field if necessary to avoid the Mizzouligans' barrage of batteries and bottles.
It is a disgrace that the Jayhawk band does not participate in the most important game of the year when its not played at Memorial Stadium, although I certainly understand why they don't go.
This is a golden opportunity to showcase the university in a positive light and increase the momentum toward reaching the goal of being the premier university among the six schools making up the Big 12 North.
I've been to Faurot Field and the Hearnes Center and rubbed shoulders with Tiger fans in Kemper Arena, so I can't blame the band directors for passing, but its certainly a shame.

In response to Audrey Snyder's column on Oct. 29, "Americans don't have duty to cast their vote in elections," I have to wonder why she would want to discourage people even further from voting?
Randall Westfall
KU graduate and resident of Socorro, N.M.
I agree that voting per se is not a duty; however, if we believe in the principles of a democratic, representative government, then it is in fact our duty as citizens to participate in that process.
This does not mean merely voting; it means becoming informed about the candidates and the issues, and then voting based on that informed, educated status. Once we have taken those basic steps, then we may choose to participate further, by writing letters to our representatives, by organizing protests, etc. But if we do not exercise the most fundamental means of our participation in the government, the vote, then we really have no leg to stand on when it comes to any more active involvement.
Don't discourage voting
Why is it that at this school you can put eight hours into a biology class and get four hours of credit, or eight hours into o chemistry class and get five hours of credit? I'm lost.
Ms. Snyder wins no points, in my opinion, by quoting Ayn Rand, a bitter and confused individual at best. Whatever one's opinion of Rand, she does not own the definition of "duty." The mistake comes, of course, in equating the phrase "higher authority" to "totalitarian dictator."
图
Two sets of twins on the Crimson Girls dance squad? Oh, you're kidding me. That's just not enough. We need three. No, I do mean, we need three. I'm gonna go call Mary Kate and Ashley, ok?
A higher authority could be a legal or moral system, or any number of things other than a dictatorship.
If we do not vote, especially those of us who are purportedly educated, then we surrender ourselves to whatever government someone else chooses.
I for one am horrified at the direction in which we're headed as a nation, and I urge everyone in the KU community to vote, please, and try to change things for the better, even in a small way.
I have written a poem for your enjoyment. It goes as follows. A friend and I went to Mizzou. We went there to watch KU. We thought it might be cool, but we realized we rule. Around midnight we wanted to come back. There was too much yellow and black. We'll never return to MU, because the Tigers smell like poo.

Bicycle riders should follow same laws as car drivers
COMMENTARY
There are certain things that people have to endure if they want to be able to use
Meagan Kelleher
opinion@kansan.com
That is, if you want to use the streets for your car. If you want to use it for your bicycle it's a completely different story altogether.
It seems that all bicyclists have free reign on the roads.
There are few laws in place for cyclists, such as Lawrence's laws against riding on the sidewalks, but there are even fewer cyclists who actually follow the laws and even less police officers that enforce them.
While there have been several cases where cyclists have been ticketed, those instances are few and far between.
Although we cannot expect all of the police force to concern themselves with bikes, it would be nice to see more of an effort put into it.
Officers need to not just focus on the wrongdoings of those driving cars, but also those cyclists who are driving illegally on the city streets.
It is ridiculous that cyclists can use
the streets just as much as cars do, but are not required to pay for registration or insurance for their bikes or mess with the same hassles.
I had to stand in line for an hour to take my written test, then stand in line again to take the actual driving test.
I refuse to share the road with those on bikes who create more of a traffic hazard then I do, even though I was the one who had to take all the tests.
If cyclists really do deserve to use the streets like drivers, then they should have to take a driving test just like everyone else who uses the roads. How can we expect someone who knows nothing about the traffic laws for their vehicle of choice to be safe as they weave precariously through traffic?
I get most nervous when I am driving next to someone on a bike.
Should I pass them? If I don't, then I
The Lewis lunch room needs to stop putting roast beef on their pizza and calling it steak pizza. It's disgusting.
Bikes are just as dangerous as cars are and create even more of a hazard. While tickets have been issued, more needs to be done to amend this growing problem and inconvenience of cyclists on the roads.
It is time for the city to start placing restrictions on cyclists, starting with required proficiency tests, licenses, and taxes.

Trivia buffs to compete at annual college bowl
By Mathn Dayani
ndayani@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
KU students longing for a bowl game won't have to wait until next football season.
The College Bowl, a one-day team trivia challenge hosted by Student Union Activities, is only a few weeks away, but the deadline to enter a team is 5 p.m. tomorrow.
Dawn Shew, program advisor for SUA, said the trivia questions covered a range of subjects, from James Bond to social theorist Friedrich Engles. She said the bowl would be an opportunity for trivia buffs to show their skills.
"It's pretty interesting to watch," Shew said. "You really do not have to be a rocket scientist to win this game."
But a rocket scientist wouldn't hurt a team either, Shew said. She said teams that wanted to be competitive should have students representing diverse educational backgrounds.
Jeff McAdams competed in last year's bowl and said his team had been composed of students who majored in history, biology, political science and math. Despite an early setback, McAdams' team won the tournament.
"We lost the first match and pretty much thought we were goners," said McAdams, Lawrence resident. "We happened to win from there on out. We had a lot of close games and there were some pretty good teams."
Shew said this year's bowl would give
teams more opportunities to compete than last year's tournament. She said the bowl would be in round-robin format, similar to preliminary rounds in World Cup soccer. Each team would be placed in a four-team division and play every opponent in its division. The winner of each of the tournament's eight divisions would advance to elimination rounds.
Ryan Doherty, coordinator for the bowl, said the teams picked up their intensity levels during the tournament's elimination rounds.
"Towards the end of the day, it gets very exciting," said Doherty, Lee's Summit, Mo., sophomore. "Some of the people who participate are unbelievable. The thought and the knowledge they display is just amazing."
Shew said members of the winning team would get a free T-shirt and the opportunity to travel to a regional College Bowl competition in a few months at a site to be announced. Last year's regional tournament was in St. Louis.
Each team consists of five members, who all have to be enrolled in three or more credit hours and have at least a 2.0 grade point average. No more than one graduate student may compete on a team. Registration is $30 for each team. The tournament will go from 8 a.m. to about 5 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 23, at several rooms in the Kansas Union. For more information, call SUA at 864-3477.

Center's screen saver provides predictions about the Earth
By Justin Henning
jhenning@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
One University program has spent two years developing a screen saver, which computes, maps and provides information of where the Earth's plants and animals have lived, currently live and could one day live.
The Informatics Biodiversity Center at the University of Kansas developed this screen saver, called Lifemapper.
Lifemapper uses an artificial intelligence algorithm, called GARP for short. The Genetic ___
SCIENCE
examines and compares similarities between a species and the area and climate it is found in. It can then predict the likelihood of finding a specific plant or animal in an area.
This technological feat is called predictive modeling, and has helped to fill in the gaps in a museum's collection and data. Museum collections and data are subject to human error because they rely on observational data.
"Observational data, like when people go out and look for birds, is not done in a grid pattern," said Jim Beach, the National History Museum's director for informatics.
"So the data is very spotty."
That's where the GARP program comes in. By taking all of the "spotty" data and comparing them to the environmental conditions in which the species is found, it can predict the likelihood of the species showing up with frequency in that area.
One example is the Spotted Snakehead fish. Earlier in the summer, this fish, native to Asia, was seen on the southern coast of the United States. The species is also called the "frankenfish" because of its mouthful of teeth and ability to live out of water for three days. GARP came up with a model map of where it could show up next.
Now, the museum has just been awarded a 5-year $3 million grant to continue the development of the program. There are plans to make the program more user friendly and to incorporate more data from the world's ecosystem.
"We have these points, which represent the known data points, for a certain species, and we have these global data coverages that describe the environment at that particular point," said Jim Beach.
The species points are more specifically located in other collections at other museums worldwide, which all have their species databases linked through another computer
"This will help researchers address global research, management and policy issues in environmental biology."

program. The environmental data consist of layers that come from specific data. Each layer is thought of as one environmental occurrence, such as temperature, rainfall and elevation. It creates a mathematical description of where a species should appear and where it's known to appear.
"This will help researchers address global research, management and policy issues in environmental biology," said William Michener, director of the Long-Term Ecological Research Network at the University of New Mexico in a press release, "Increasingly, these issues require efficient, automated access to diverse and widespread data."

Attorney general's race close
TOPEKA — Republican Phill Kline holds the narrowest of leads in the attorney general's race, but the outcome is in doubt because some ballots haven't been counted.
The Associated Press
Democratic candidate Chris Biggs said yesterday he wouldn't decide whether to seek a recount until all provisional ballots had been counted, which won't be until Friday, or Monday.
Final unofficial results from Tuesday's voting showed Kline with 3,489 more votes than Biggs, of out 809,415 cast — a margin of only 0.4 percent.
"This race is close enough that it could turn on the provisional ballots," Biggs said. "I'm still a candidate for the office of attorney general."
State election officials called the margin one of the narrowest for a state general election race.
"We are going to leave no stone unturned to make sure the vote is tallied correctly." Parkinson said.
Secretary of State Ron Thornburgh's office said there were at least 13,000 provisional ballots after checking about 70 of the state's 105 counties. Johnson County had 3,357; Sedgwick County, 2,262; Wyandotte County, 1,068; and Douglas County, about 1,000.
State GOP Chairman Mark Parkinson said he assembled a team of lawyers to monitor counting the provisional ballots.
Thornburgh met yesterday with Parkinson, State Democratic Chairman Tom Sawyer and other party officials to discuss procedures for counting provisional votes and how a recount would be conducted.
The most common reason for casting a provisional ballot is that a voter has moved and county officials have the old address.
Parkinson, an attorney, said he would head a group of several dozen Kansas lawyers to monitor the provisional ballot count.
"These are all homegrown folks who want to make sure the vote is counted properly," Parkinson said. "
Biggs said he expected Democrats also would have observers watching the provisional ballots being counted.

No budget plan from Sebelius
The Associated Press
TOPEKA—Gov-elect Kathleen Sebelius acknowledged yesterday that she hadn't developed any specific proposals for heading off a looming budget deficit and that she expected to leave the job to outgoing Gov. Bill Graves.
Sebelius said she would support whatever actions Graves and his Cabinet took to deal with the projected deficit of $255 million on June 30 and told reporters she wouldn't second-guess his administration.
The governor-elect jumped into her new role, naming her campaign manager. Joyce Allegrucci, to lead her transition team.
Sebelius also said she would announce the details next week of the top-to-bottom review of state government she had promised throughout her campaign.
When pressed for details about plans for dealing with the budget, Sebelius briefly grew defensive during her first news conference as governor-elect.
"I'll keep you posted," she said.
Later, she asked for patience
"We're going to be as open and accountable as possible," Sebelius said. "But I did not have a magic plan that I was hid
"We're going to be as open and accountable as possible." Kathleen Sebelius Governor-elect
Sebelius said she planned to establish a toll-free telephone hot line and a Web site so that residents could suggest ideas for making state government more effective.
"I'm hopeful that we can call upon the energy and ingenuity of citizens to be involved in this process," Sebelius said. "I have found, as I've traveled across Kansas, there is a lot optimism about this state.
Everybody understands we're in tough budget times, and we're going to have to make some tough calls, and they look forward to supporting that."
With final, unofficial results tabulated from Tuesday's election, Sebelius, the Democratic nominee, had 53 percent to Republican Tim Shallenburger's 45 percent.
Graves, a Republican, and Sebelius met for more than an hour to discuss the budget and
other issues.
He promised to cooperate with her transition team and she pledged not to interfere with the work of his administration.
The incumbent governor said Monday he would order additional cuts in spending if the governor-elect supported such a course.
That stance is a reversal of his position, when he trimmed $41 million from the budget in August.
Yesterday, he told reporters before the meeting with Sebelius: "Give us a little time."
Neither was available after their meeting. Sebelius slipped out of Graves' office through a back door, avoiding reporters.
The projected budget deficit is the result of a new fiscal forecast issued Tuesday by state officials and university economists, who said the shortfall between expected revenues and spending commitments could grow to $1 billion by the end of the next fiscal year.
Sebelius said she would focus on developing a proposed budget for the state's 2004 fiscal year.
"He's the sitting governor," Sebelius said. "This is his budget and his Cabinet officers, and it's my intention to be supportive of his efforts."

Denning said she worried about students with problems
"Fasting can be stressful and if you have a tendency towards health problems, you're better off drinking fluids and at least eating small amounts of food," Denning said.
Denning said that physicians could morally excuse students

Chris Hampton, a public education associate for the ACLU, said the ACLU didn't justify the behavior that put Limon in jail. But the organization argues it is unfair the Romeo and Juliet Law does not apply to Limon, Hampton said from the ACLU Lesbian and Gay Rights Project office in New York.
On Oct. 10, the American Civil Liberties Union appealed the sentence, which could keep Limon in jail until he is 36, to the United States Supreme Court.
His sentence is unfair, Limon's ACLU lawyers said, because he isn't receiving the equal protection given to him by the constitution.

"The argument for equal protection for gays and lesbians has been made before but it hasn't been successful," Haider-
Markel said, referring to appeals against Kansas' sodomy laws that only apply to homosexuals.
Limon might be able to argue the severity of his sentence based on gender discrimination, Haider-Markel said.
It takes up to a year before the court decides if it will even hear the case, but Hampton expects that the Supreme Court will reach a decision by late winter or early spring.

"I think the goals and values of this organization, are extremely valuable to the KU student body."

Train fire kills 12 passengers in France
The Associated Press
NANCY, France — A fire on an overnight train in eastern France filled a sleeping car with deadly smoke yesterday, killing 12 people — including five Americans from the same family and driving panicked passengers to smash windows and jump to safety.
Fatal rail accidents are rare in France, where trains are known for speed, safety and efficiency.
The train, like others in Europe, had no smoke detectors even though cigarette smoking was allowed.
The fire began shortly after 2 a.m. as the train with 150 passengers passed through the city of Nancy on its way to Munich, Germany, according to SNCF.
Yesterday's blaze, which also injured nine people, was initially blamed on an electrical short-circuit. But the French rail authority SNCF said that was premature and the cause was under investigation.
Smoke was blamed for the deaths.
An accountant from North Branford, Conn. and four members of his family were killed. Salvatore Michael Amore, 43, and his family were also killed, said Anna Maria Amore, his sister-in-law. Also killed were Amore's wife, Jeanne, 43; daughter Emily Jeanne, 12; son Michael Bernhardt, 8; and mother, Susanne, 72.

So I know it's been said before, but I would like to say that they just have nothing better to do than make retarded Web sites about KU sucking. And I'd also like to point out that Mizzou does suck and they almost lost the game 81-80 in overtime to EA sports all-stars, and who we killed 111-94. So Mizzou sucks.

To Mangino: start Luke for future
Mark Mangino's on a youth kick.
No, the Kansas football coach isn't trying to find the fountain of youth. Instead, he's giving his young athletes more playing time, trying to prepare them for next season and beyond.
Freshmen Kevin Kane (linebacker), Justin Henry (center) and Kevin Borders (tight end) all played in Kansas' 64-0 loss to Kansas State on Saturday.
The most important move toward youth was Mangino's decision to play quarterback Brian Luke, giving the second-year freshman some valuable playing time.
Senior Jonas Weatherbie started in place of injured Bill Whittemore, but Luke replaced Weatherbie — who completed two of nine passes for no yards and an interception — early in the second quarter.
Mangino's words the past four days have made it apparent that Luke won't get that opportunity this week or the rest of the season.
Luke showed some first-game jitters, going 7 of 18 for 74 yards with an interception and two fumbles, but he appeared to gain some poise as the game progressed.
After the game, Luke said he had learned a lot from his almost three quarters, namely the speed of the game and what to do next time he lined up behind the center.
Luke also said he would love to get another chance to lead the offense.
Mangino said that Weatherbie would start Saturday against Nebraska if Whittenore's injury didn't improve enough to allow him to play. Considering Whittemore has a torn medial collateral ligament — an injury which has kept Kansas soccer forward Caroline Smith out of action since Oct. 13 — it's not likely he will start again.
Given Mangino's move toward youth and the future of the Kansas football program, starting Weatherbie makes little to no sense. Mangino justified his decision by saying that Luke wasn't ready for the Kansas State game after sitting out with a hand injury until Oct. 21 and "should only be used if pressed into duty."
Coah, if Weatherbie is your only other viable option, then starting Luke is pretty pressing.
Luke may have less than a game of experience, but he now has five more career passing attempts than Weatherbie and five more completions.
Weatherbie has passed for just 16 yards on 13 career completions and will be out of the program after this season. Luke is the quarterback of the near future.
Whittimore will be a senior next year, and it's unlikely that a two-win team can bring in a top quarterback recruit soon. Luke, who was named to two all-area teams and broke five school records his senior year of high school, needs time on the field to learn the collegiate game and be ready to take over once Whittimore is gone.
Mangino has said it was unfair to ask Luke to come back so quickly from his injury, but it's unfair to Luke not to give him the opportunity to learn and gain experience.
It's hypocritical, too. Mangino said during Monday's Big 12 teleconference that he wanted his young athletes to play against Kansas State to learn how to keep fighting in the face of adversity.
After Saturday's game, Mangino said it was those younger players who played the hardest, best and most consistently because they just wanted the opportunity to play and compete, no matter the opponent.
Luke certainly wants that opportunity, and it's in Mangino's best interest to make sure his future quarterback gets that wish.

'Husker coach feels Kansas' pain

Nebraska quarterback Jammal Lord looks for open field in last year's 51-7 victory at Memorial Stadium in Lawrence. Lord and his fellow Cornhuskers, led by coach Frank Solich, will play host to the Jayhawks at 12:30 p.m. Saturday in Lincoln, Neb.
Although Nebraska and Kansas are hardly equals on the gridiron, Cornhusker football coach Frank Solich is taking notice of the building project taking place in Lawrence.
Solich said Tuesday in his weekly press conference that he could see improvement in Kansas' play as the Jayhawks prepare to end a 33-game losing streak to Nebraska.
"They are building for the future," Solich said. "I think they're doing a fine job of coaching. You can see, as you go through the tapes, as we look at every game they played, you see them using great techniques and getting better as the season progresses."
When Solich became Nebraska's coach in 1998, he was not inheriting a team that needed rebuilding similar to Mangino's at Kansas. Instead, Solich took on the responsibility of continuing the success his predecessor Tom Osborne enjoyed for 25 seasons as head coach.
Osborne became a legend in Nebraska after he coached a team with a .836 winning percentage and that played in 25 consecutive bowl games, along with three national championships between 1973-1997.
Osborne is currently a senator in the Cornhusker state, and Solich is feeling the heat of continuing the winning tradition of Nebraska football.
Nebraska's football fans are traditionally known as some of the most loyal fans in college football, but 'Sack Solich' has become a popular slogan around Lincoln this fall.
After Nebraska's run to the national championship game in the Rose Bowl was tainted by a 37-14 thrashing by Miami last year, the Cornhuskers have gone 6-4 so far this season.
Solich said it had been difficult at
times to keep his team focused, especially after losing to Iowa State Sept. 28. The loss ended Nebraska's streak of being ranked in the Associated Press poll that dated back to October 1981.
tude that goes from one game to the next," Solich said. "That's going to be the proper attitude to make them at the end the type of team that they want to be."
"They need to have the kind of atti-

Kansas tumbles to Texas

The Kansas volleyball team knew that Texas Tech would be focused last night.
A lopside 3-0 loss to Kansas on Sept 28 in Lawrence ensured that fact.
Unfortunately for the Jayhawks, the Red Raiders were seeing 20-20 yesterday in a 3-0 (30-24, 31-29, 30-17) victory against Kansas in Lubbock, Texas.
The loss halted the Jayhawks' three-match winning streak.
Michaels
Kansas, 17-6 overall and 8-6 Big 12 Conference, is now 0-3 in road games all of which were sweeps, in the state of Texas this season.
"We basically ran into a very hot Texas Tech team tonight," said Kansas coach Ray Bechard. "They always play well at home and tonight was no exception."
The Red Raiders, 9-13 overall and 4-9
Big 12, registered 68 digs, which is the most for a Kansas opponent in a threegame match this season.
"Those two players were a lot better tonight that they were when we faced them at home," junior outside hitter Sarah Rome said. "I thought we gave good effort in the first two games of the match and then things fell apart after that."
For the third time this season, no Kansas player had double-digit kills. Sophomore middle blocker Ashley Michaels led the team in kills for the first time this season with eight.
Texas Tech's Laura Grote had 55 assists while Red Raider Kelly Johnson had a match-high 22 kills, and Angela Mooney had a season-high 20 kills.
Freshman setter Andi Rozum had 27 assists and a team-high 11 digs for her fourth double-double.
The Jayhawks don't play this Saturday because of a scheduled idle period but Kansas plays Texas A&M at 7 p.m. Wednesday in the Horejsi Family Athletics Center.

Coming into the tournament on a three game slide, the No. 6 seeded Jayhawks look to reverse their fortune and defeat No. 3 seeded Nebraska.
Kansas squares off against Nebraska at 7:30 onight.
Kansas has not won a game since a 2-1 win over Iowa State on Oct. 20. Coach Mark Francis said his team had overlooked that and was excited about its opportunity this week.
Earlier this season Kansas played to a 1-1 tie against the Cornhuskers. Kansas scored late in the second half on a goal by freshman Caroline Smith to take the lead 1-0. Nebraska responded quickly and tied the game 25 seconds later on a goal by Christine Latham to finish the scoring.

At the time, Nebraska was ranked No.18 in the country and Francis thinks his team was a couple of mistakes away from winning.

The virtual face-off has been absent the past few weeks, but returns for the final two weeks of the season. Next week's opponent will be a surprise, but this week, Ryan Greene, who lost his last outing to Jonah Ballow and the Colorado Buffaloes, faced Ryan Malashock and his Nebraska Cornhuskers. This game carried significance far beyond the controllers, because it was a battle between the Kansan sports staff's two Ryan's ultimate bragging rights . Old Ryan versus New Ryan, senior versus junior, seven semesters at the Kansan versus three semesters.
"Yeah, I know what y'all are thinking." Greene said. "Malashock's covered basketball. Malashock's written some clever columns. Malashock writes for The Topeka-Capital Journal. Forget all that. He's old hat, it's over for him. He needs to graduate and find a job, because I'm taking over this newsroom."
"Yeah, Greene has the experience factor on the video game system, but you
Malashock entered the contest with an abundance of confidence, despite having never played the game.
can't ever bet against Nebraska at home," said Malashock, an Omaha native. "And don't worry, I'd never allow that impostor to take my status as the Kansan's greatest Ryan of all-time."
1st Quarter
Jonas Weatherbie started at quarterback for Kansas but couldn't move the ball as the Jayhawks punched on their opening drive. A muffed fair catch by DeJuan Groce gave Kansas the ball deep in Nebraska territory, and the Jayhawks capitalized with a 27-vard Johnny Beck field goal.
Kansas 3, Nebraska 0
On the ensuing kickoff, Groce quickly delivered revenge, returning a kick 98 yards down the sideline to put Nebraska back on top.
"I must have told that moron about 20 times not to kick it to Groce," Malashock said. "He got what he deserved right there."
Nebraska 7, Kansas 3
2nd Quarter
After Kansas went three-and-out on their next drive, the Cornhuskers were quick to give the ball right back to the Jayhawks when Dahrran Diedrick fumbled on his own 41-yard-line where Nick Reid quickly pounced on the loose football.

Star's 'Life Goes On'to theater
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Chad Lowe grew up surfing and acting along side his brother, Rob, who costars on TV's West Wing.
Chad is best remembered for his role as a wisecracking teen on Spencer in the mid-1980s, and then for his portrayal of the HIV-positive Jesse McKenna in the 1990s series Life Goes On, which earned him an Emmy. Since then, he has appeared in a number of movies and TV productions. None, though, offered the acting challenge he found in off-Broadway's Burning Blue.
Homosexuality in the military landed center stage in the DMW Greer play about an officer who discovers that his best friend and wing man is having an affair with a fellow officer.
"I felt like this was a love story between two friends more than anything." Lowe said in a recent interview. "Yes, it's set against the 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' policy of the military. Yes, it's set against
these naval flyers. But, ultimately, I think it's a very unique love story in that — how does a heterosexual man express his love to his dearest childhood friend who comes out as being gay?"
Lowe, 34, portrayed Lt. Will Stephensen, who eventually comes to terms with his own jealousy and prejudices and lets love and friendship prevail. The play, directed by John Hickok, recently closed at the Samuel Beckett Theatre.
"I think I've grown a little bit since I was last in a play," said Lowe. "It's a challenge every night — an exploration. That's exciting, I haven't really had that experience before." Lowe's other stage appearances have been a 1990 WPA Theatre production in New York of Don Nigro's *Groteques Love Songs and Huckleberry Finn* at the Williamstown Theatre Festival in Massachusetts.
Greer said that Lowe was a-perfect match for the role of
Stephensen.
"Chad is incredibly honest," he said. "He has the vulnerabilities I was looking for in the character, and they really come across on stage."
Lowe says his portrayal of Stephensen speaks to his evolution as an actor and a person.
"The goal has always been to continue to grow as a human being, as an artist and as a couple so that we are always challenging ourselves and inspiring one another," he said, referring to himself and his wife, Academy Award-winning actor Hilary Swank.
For the past few years, Lowe has worked on movie projects of his own. His short film, The Space Between, featuring Swank, received good reviews at a number of film festivals.
Lowe is looking forward to them both working in New York theatre.
"There is nowhere like this city to do live theatre," he said. "I love it."

Nebraska was back on the winning path when they used a furious second-half rally to defeat Texas A&M Oct. 26 in College Station, Texas. Last weekend the Huskers suffered a 17-14 loss to Texas, ending Nebraska's nation best 26-game home winning streak.
Because Nebraska plays a 13 game schedule, the 'Huskers need a victory against Kansas to attain the seven wins necessary to become eligible for a bowl game.

Nebraska started the second half with a bang, returning the opening kick for a touchdown, only to have it called back to its own 19-yard-line with a holding penalty. After a three-and-out series by the Cornhuskers, Weatherbie hit Byron Gassaway down the sidelines for a 61-yard score. Weatherbie then connected on a two-point conversion pass to Brandon Rideau. Nebraska responded with Diedrick's third touchdown run, this one from 19 yards out. Holder Joe Chrisman ran in a two-point conversion as the Cornhuskers faked the extra point. Chrisman reversed his field three times, scrambling back to his own 15-yard line at one time, before scoring.

Kansas got things started in the fourth with a 28-yard strike
from Weatherbie to Derrick Vann, which was Weatherbie's fourth touchdown throw of the afternoon. However, a failed 2-point conversion left the Jayhawks needing another touchdown.

The Jayhawks converted two fourth downs on the drive and faced a first-and-goal at the Nebraska three-yard line with 20 seconds left. Weatherbie's inexperience finally surfaced as four straight incompletions ended the game — a second straight Kansas defeat.

Smith has sat out the past five games since injuring her knee against Oklahoma Oct. 13. Smith dressed last week for the Missouri match but did not play. Francis expects her to play tomorrow and see limited action.
"My guess is that we will have to make it into the finals to advance to the NCAA tournament," Francis said. "That is not pressure, it is added incentive for our team, and we are excited about that."

Ragemore: Weird is good
By Janette Yost
jyost@kansan.com
Jayplay writer
"I awoke from one of the strangest, most lucid dreams I've ever had, where Aunt Bee and I were flying over Area 51 in an unmarked helicopter. When I went to the restroom, I looked in the mirror and noticed that I had unwillingly written something backwards on my face. It read 'Ragemore.' I immediately sat down, drank some water, and began designing what would later become Ragemore Records," said Jesse Atwell, Salina senior and the founder and producer of Ragemore Records.
Rooted in Lawrence, the new record label is looking for local artists who are making new music. That is, new music with some "weird" on the side.
"I want to put the weird back into music," said Atwell. "They got divorced a while back, and I want to get them back together."
Atwell has been designing the label for the last two years, planning diligently.
"I have a pretty good business plan written up,"he said.
Surveying Ragemore's Web site, www.ragemore.com, gives a feel for Atwell's plan. Though no artists are yet featured on the site, it appears to be ready for them. Links to artist information, tour dates and merchandise are waiting to be filled with details.
"Careful planning assures that Ragemore adopts and utilizes creative and unique marketing methods that are justified by reason while maintaining intimate relationships with its artists," reads the "Who We Are" page.
"The whole structure's set up," Atwell said. "All I need is talented people to fill in
the blanks."
The label is currently looking for interesting and creative talent to produce, publish and tour, according to the Web site. Atwell is looking for demos and/or press kits from local artists of any genre, which can be mailed to Ragemore Records, P.O. Box 4673, Lawrence, KS, 66046. Recording will take place at Verdi Record Company, Inc., in Salina.
Atwell's plan is to have four to five recording artists signed by this summer, with three or four published productions and two or three regular radio campaigns underway.
The label focuses on artist development, with the ultimate goal of getting artists signed to bigger labels after establishing a good regional track record.
Atwell wants to put Lawrence back on the independent music scene map.
"If there's one thing I'm serious about, it's music," he said. "The big red button is right there in front of me and I've got to push it soon — my fingers are itching."
In addition to producing artists, Ragemore has a joint-venture partnership with Subterra films, which is headed by avant-garde filmmaker Mark Gephart. He and Atwell are currently working on a film script and will advertise an open casting call in the next two to three months.
"I want the freaks, the geeks, the weirdos and the strange-looking." Atwell said about the call. He is already excited about the script.
"It's funny." he said.
For more information on the Ragemore Records label, e-mail info@ragemore.com. For information on the Ragemore/Subterra film or casting call, e-mail subterrafilms@ragemore.com.

CDs: Mule, Björk, Foo
Gov't Mule, The Deep End, BMG/ATO Records
In the grand tradition of Lynyrd Skynyrd, Gov't Mule revels in its own kind of Deep South rock 'n' roll with The Deep End, the two-disc tribute to former bassist Allen Woody. The disc features some of the most well-known bassists and keyboardists in rock'n' roll, including Phil Lesh of Grateful Dead and Chuck Leavell of the Rolling Stones.
Even with the array of talented musicians, The Deep End plays like a flawed imitation of Skynyrd: jazzier, yet more twitch-inducing. The guitar riffs may be pleasant, but most come off as a distorted twang, not a heart-pumping experience.
Most of the songs, such as "Full Moon" and "Lay of the Sunflower" are decent but fail to impress on any higher level. The Atlanta-based trio ventures into unfamiliar territory on volume one with "Effigy"—a slower version of "Only God Knows Why"—but they end up with a subpar result. The Deep End is good enough to listen to while alone in your car, but put it away when guests are around.
— Lindsey Remsey
Foo Fighters, One By One, BMG Records
Dave Grohl has now spent more years with the Foo Fighters than he did playing with Nirvana, and he has yet to disappoint his fans. Though his music will probably never be as groundbreaking as it was with Cobain, he continues to improve. The fourth and latest album from the Foo Fighters, One By One, has 11 solid rock songs that weave melody and raging guitar riffs masterfully, though it falls just short of being a great album.
Songs such as "All my Life" and "Comeback are fantastic songs, but the CD lacks that one great song with overpowering passion or a catchy hook that the Foo Fighters are capable of producing. The only other flaw in this otherwise impeccable album is that some songs such as "Overdrive" just won't end. Overall, One By One is a quality album and would make a worthy addition to any rock collection.
Justin La Mort
Björk, Greatest Hits, Elektra records
Björk's Greatest Hits is a tradition-defying, nonlinear collection that weaves through her impressive solo career the same way the Icelandic singer's voice flies up and down the scale.
The disc features a fan-selected tracklist, which makes it feel more like a mixtape than an official anthology.
Greatest Hits features selections from 1993's Debut to last year's Vespertine. The 15th and final track, "It's In Our Hands," is the only new song.
The video mix of "All Is Full Of Love," opens the album. Björk creates a sound that is naturally futuristic.
But Björk's instrument is her voice. On songs such as the Fluke Remix of "Big Time Sensuality," which is the most fun and danceable song of the collection, her voice is both pleasing and challenging to listen to.
Though Greatest Hits only features two remixes and one new song, its slick packaging and exciting tracklist provide new listeners with a good place to start and old fans with an appropriate bookend to Björk's stellar first decade.

Women of Medusa write, critique poetry
By Amy Kelly
akelly@kansan.com
Jayplay writer
When discovering the group bears the name of Medusa, the serpent-haired Gorgon of the Greek classics, one might get the impression that these ladies are simply out to turn some no-good men to stone. But member Ruhlen says the group's name actually refers to Medusa's North African origin, not the horrific figure of Greek mythology.
"We do not hate men," Crichton said. "The mixed group tends to change the focus a lot of the time. It's easier to critique one another's work in an all-female situation."
The current incarnation is a group of five Lawrence women who have taken the collective name of Medusa in an effort to celebrate the lost art of verse.
The mythological figure of Medusa has been resurrected, and she is quite the poetess.
"A couple of us were working in a sandwich shop and we shared a love of poetry," said Sarah Ruhlen, a founding member of Medusa and KU alumnus, who posted fliers to invite other poets in the area to join the group. "When we first started, there were men and women involved, but the guys got jobs and moved away. The group just started to get more and more women."
Since banding together in 1997, the women of Medusa have met once every two weeks to discuss and critique one another's poetry. They also have gathered monthly at Aimee's Coffee House, 1025 Massachusetts St., to perform their finished opuses.
The roots of Medusa were actually established in the unlikeliest of places — a fast-food joint.
"Medusa actually was an African goddess of wisdom and creativity," Ruhlen said. "We were at one of our early meetings, and one of the girls had written a poem called 'Medusa.' It was storming out and there was a lot of electricity, and we were all like, 'OK, Medusa is our name.'"
Nancy Crichton, a Medusa member and high school teacher, says limiting the group to only females enables women to express themselves more freely.
Since their early days of sharing poetry privately, the lady bards have since become a staple at Aimee's the first Thursday of each month from 8 to 10 p.m. The open-mike format allows the women of Medusa, as well as non-members, a chance to read

Offer your fingertips to your lover as appetizers.

their works in front of an audience.
Peigi Robinson, who joined Medusa in March, recalls she got involved by being an observer at first.
Men and women alike are welcome to attend Aimee's poetry sessions, regardless of experience. Even if a writer's work has been deemed worthy of censorship by others, Medusa never considers censorship as an option.
Although the monthly readings may be intimidating to newcomers, the openmike setup is far from the verbal warfare of a poetry slam.
"The only limit we have is that you can't read for more than seven minutes." Crichton said. "We love having new people read. It's a very warm climate for new poets."
"I went to the first meeting just as a visitor, and then I ended up asking if I could read my poetry," Robinson said, adding that Medusa's mandatory critiquing sessions helped develop her writing style.
"I've definitely seen an improvement in my poetry since when I first started," Robinson said. "I used to not put a lot of time into it. The critiquing has really helped."
"It's pretty laid back," Ruhlen said. "There are some 'performance artists,' but it's really all about different styles."
The women of Medusa are currently looking for two or three new members who need to be Lawrence females. A questionnaire is available on the Medusa Web site, medusa.sunflower.com, and interested poetesses are encouraged to send the group information about themselves and their poetry.
Aimee's Coffee House hosts Medusa's Open Mic tonight from 8 to 10 p.m. For more information, contact Medusa at medusapoetry@yahoo.com.

School-spoofing movies help beat stress
As the semester approaches its end and professors pile on projects and finals, few things are greater stress-relievers than a good movie. And what better way to forget about school than watching a flick that replicates, mocks or exaggerates the high school and college experiences? So for some stress relief, try watching these movies — the best school movies as chosen by journalism students in an opinion & commentary class.
National Lampoon's Animal House By Cal Creek
Over quoted? Definitely. Overplayed? Possibly. Overrated? Never.
1978's Animal House might seem like a trite, ridiculous sex comedy with jokes and actors that went out with the mid-'80s. But, had there been no Animal House there would have been no Road Trip, no PCU, no Porky's — although that might

have been for the better — and no American Pie.
Animal House was one of the first movies to reflect the lives of students outside the classroom, to portray students as people with vices and downfalls. It was the first movie to feature a grown man spitting a mouthful full of cottage cheese all over a cafeteria.
The story is pretty simple. Larry Kroger, played by Amadeus' Thomas Hulce, and his roommate, Kent Dorfman, played by Class Reunion's Stephen Furst, are freshmen at the fictitious Faber College in 1962.
The movie opens with the guys trying to join a fraternity. They quickly find that the only fraternity that will accept them is the Delta House, the worst house on campus. Through the Delta House, the guys meet a variety of over-the-top, almost cartoonlike characters.
There's rush chairman Eric Stratton, played by The West Wing's Tim Matheson; his best friend, Donald "Boon" Schoenstein, played by The Mask's Peter Riegert; and the disgustingly hilarious John "Bluto" Blutarsky, played by the greatest fat man of comedy, John Belushi.
The Delta house has rivals in the strictly upper-class Anglo-saxon Omega house. The dean of the school, Vernon Wormer, played by Airplane II's John Vernon, looks for an opportunity to kick the guys out of school.
Less concerned with life in school so much as the social life of school, Animal House has proven itself through time, as an outrageous screwball comedy with just a touch of real emotion.
Ferris Bueller's Day Off By Laurie Harrison
Judging by its title, Ferris Bueller's Day Off may not seem like a school film. But the movie is all about school: skipping school, manipulating the school system and living life outside school. During the
movie, Bueller does all this and then some.
1234567890
Matthew Broderick shines as high school senior Ferris Bueller, who skips school one day to see the sights in Chicago with his best friend and girlfriend. Thirteen years before his brilliant performance playing the scheming, cheating high school civics teacher in 1999's dark comedy Election,Broderick plays a scheming,cheating,yet lovable high school student.
FERRIS BUELLER'S DAY OFF
The movie mixes comedy with drama, provided by Bueller's angst-ridden best friend, Cameron Frye. Frye is played by Alan Ruck, best known for his recent stint as Stuart Bondek on the ABC comedy, Spin City. Frye's torment and pain over a father who loves his Ferrari more than his son provide the movie with its most touching moments.
Mia Sara plays Bueller's cool-underpressure girlfriend, whom Bueller is sure he'll marry someday.
Bueller's charm and spontaneous personality win over his parents, teachers and classmates. They believe this habitual truant is truly sick, despite the fact that he has been absent nine times his senior year.
Viewers can easily relate to Bueller's need to escape the dreary halls of high school and its dull teachers like those played by Ben Stein.
The freshmen even start a "Save Ferris Bueller Fund" for a new kidney, the English department sends flowers and delivers a prostitute to his doorstep, and "Save Ferris" gets plastered on his Chicago suburb's water tower.
The comedy is written and directed by John Hughes, the man responsible for documenting the angst of 1980s teenagers in movies such as Sixteen Candles, The Breakfast Club and Pretty in Pink.
Fast Times at Ridgemont High By Sarah Hill
Some school-based movies make people remember the fun times they had in school. Fast Times at Ridgemont High can fulfill the same function and remind adults or even those just out of high school about the growing pains of getting through high school.
Fast Times, set in southern California, is a classic coming-of-age story that describes in exact details the high school time when teenagers magically turn into adults.

totally awesome!
Audiences can thank
author Cameron Crowe, who also wrote and directed Almost Famous, for his researching skills. Crowe spent time at a high school in California shadowing students and wrote the novel — and later the screenplay — based on his experiences.
Crowe's teenagers and their environment are true to form.
With the exception of a few brief appearances of parents, the only authority figures in the film are teachers and guidance counselors.
When they're not at school, these teenagers hang out at the mall, languish at their minimum-wage jobs, most of them in the mall, and display all the elements people remember about 1980s pop culture: big hair, music made by people with big hair and a generation of kids left largely to their own devices.
The plot is simple yet full of action. A few weeks in the lives of these teenagers whose characters are developed chronologically, provides enough story development and resolution to leave viewers with a sense that something was accomplished during the movie.
Don't watch Fast Times to relive the high-school days of yesterday. Watch the film to reflect on what it's like to grow up. Then, be thankful those years are far behind.
The Breakfast Club By Jenna Goepfert
In high school, life is often about seeing people in the simplest terms, by conventional definitions — brain, jock, basket case, princess and criminal.
But as king of '80s teen movies, director John Hughes saw the similarities people shared and never pigeonholed his predominantly teenage audiences into those terms.
The Breakfast Club came at the height of the Brat Pack and more than a decade before today's era of American Pie and teen gross-out comedies.
And although the
THE BREAKFAST CLUB
THE BREAKFAST CLUB
And although the movie is often predictable, it's effective because it's emotionally true.
The Breakfast Club is a dialogue-driven comedy/drama about five seemingly drastically different high school students sentenced to serve nine hours of Saturday detention. As the group spends a day together at the library of a Sherman, Ill., high school, each member's glaringly apparent, traditional stereotype begins to break down.
Andrew Clark, a then-22-year-old Emilio Estevez, is a star wrestler who's high up on the social spectrum.
He's driven to succeed by his father, who is pressuring him to get a college scholarship.
Molly Ringwald, who stars in her third Hughes film, is spoiled, popular Claire Standish, who struggles with the pressures of her parents' divorce and the demands of peer pressure from the crowd.
A 24-year-old Judd Nelson is a bit of a stretch playing young high school rebel John Bender, an overlydefensive, insecure punk trying to earn his family's acceptance.
Brian Johnson - played by puny Anthony Michael Hall, a Hughes film regular after playing Farmer Ted in Pretty in Pink - is a late-blooming geek who's feeling pressure to succeed academically.
Ally Sheedy's character, Allison Reynolds, is an unbalanced outsider and pathological liar.
Although her issues and motivations are never resolved for the audience, she fills the role as token high school outcast.
The group accepts one another's jeers, taunts and insults at first, but as the commonalities of the pressures of high school life and teenage angst come to the surface, the teens set aside intolerance and judgments, laugh together, cry together, smoke pot and learn something about one another.

Eminem shines in feature film debut, '8 Mile'
FILM
A DJ spins records as a large man with muscles bulging from his white cotton tank top grips a microphone and stares down a short, white rapper with a bruised face. In front of a concrete room full of observers, the larger rapper unleashes a slew of trash talk-filled lines of freestyle rap. The crowd reacts to the rapper's taunts by screaming, throwing their hands in the air and jumping in unison as if each person were part of a larger organism. This freestyle battle between rappers is more than just a concert. It is where dreams are made and credibility is given. Eminem is doing more than just fighting for street credibility. He is fighting for his own credibility in the acting world as he tries to silence critics in his first feature film, 8 Mile.
Peter Black
pblack@kansan.com
So why is there so much concern about Eminem's jump from music videos to the big screen? Other rappers have done it. Ice Cube is coming off the wildly successful Barbershop, and let's not forget about IceT. Perhaps it is because Eminem seems to be following the lead of the likes of Britney Spears and other MTV prodigies who have used their success with the teen demographic to feed their own desires by using their star power to make a movie. However, Eminem seems to be different. 8 Mile allows him to shed the TRL candy shell that has coated his career and shows audiences a gritter side and a past that he has made public through his lyrics.
8 Mile is not the biography of Marshall "Eminem" Mathers, but perhaps it is a fictionalized depiction of his past that Eminem has constructed for his fans. 8 Mile is the part of Detroit that separates what some consider to be the white trash part of town from the urban slum of the motor city.
Jones, Future, played by Mekhi Phifer, and others are working toward getting a demo together so they can get out of the rundown streets and into a world of flashy cars women and money. Rabbit seems to be the most promising rapper out of the bunch to snag a record deal.
Coming from the white trash trailer park is just one more obstacle that Rabbit, played by Eminem, has to overcome on his way to gaining the street credibility necessary to launch a career. Rabbit, along with his friends Chedder Bob, played by Evan
He feels the pressure to make something happen so he can quit his job at a metal-stamping plant and move out of the trailer owned by his mother, played by Kim Basinger. After choking at his first freestyle battle, he looks for other ways of cutting a demo, all of which end up screwing him over, leaving him dejected and angry with the dream he has been living. Instead of giving the movie a glamorous ending, it ends simply with a glimmer of hope and a sense of understanding.
'8 MILE' ★★★ (OUT OF FOUR)
The role of Rabbit doesn't require Eminem to take on a character too foreign to him, but he gives a powerful and gripping performance. It is revealing to look at the rap superstar stripped of all of his pride and struggling to make it. Under the hooded sweatshirt and the stocking hat pulled down so far it almost covers his eyes is a vulnerability and uncertainty that makes the character Eminem plays seem

like a real person rather than the commercialized and commodified by-product of MTV.
Much of the film is shot with a wobbly handheld camera following Rabbit as he stomps through the decrepit and decaying grayness of the slums of Detroit. The image may shakily mirror the uncertainty that Rabbit has in his life, but Eminem's performance is solid.
He walks through life with confidence and unstaggering pride. His icy blue stare pierces the bleakness of his surroundings, shining as the only bright spot in the world around him. This may not be Eminem's life story but he brings the intensity and ferocity of his lyrics to his acting and gives a performance that says he is more than this week's fad and is a star who is going to be around for a while.
'Auto Focus' clearly tackles sex and stardom
Auto Focus initially looks to be the FILM SNOB
Auto Focus initially looks to be the equivalent of a cinematic yet inconsequential El True Hollywood Story. But in the assured hands of director Paul Schrader, the story of Bob Crane becomes a meditation on the religious family man of the '50s being tempted into the dark side of the Free Love Movement of the '60s and '70s.
A. E. H.
James Owen
jowen@kansan.com
Schrader, the writing collaborator of Martin Scorcese (Taxi Driver, Ragging Bull and Bringing Out the Dead among others), looks at the glossy innocence and slowly peels away the layers for the film's duration. Crane, played by Greg Kinnear, began his career in L.A. as "the Johnny Carson of radio." He takes the chance to be the lead on Hogan's Heroes, which turns out to be a hit, and Crane's new recognition brings about all sorts of changes.
His wife, played by Rita Wilson, worries about the long hours that he spends on the set and its effect on his balance of career and family. Crane also becomes more appealing to the ladies. It's all harmless fun until one day when on the set Crane meets John Carpenter, played by Willem Dafoe. And no, this Carpenter is not the director of Halloween.
y d i r k e t
n o n t h o u s w i
For more reviews by James Owen, check out www.filmsnobs.com.
Carpenter is on the set putting together a sound system in the trailer of one of Crane's costars. Crane is intrigued by this guy's technological know-how. Carpenter, sees Crane's enthusiasm as a ticket to hang out with a celebrity and invites Crane to a strip club for lunch. What develops from this initial meeting is a life of swinging and sex that envelops Crane. His obsession with random sexual encounters with women is exciting for a guy who has lived a bland Catholic life. He embraces new video technology, introduced to him by Carpenter, that allows him to experience these moments over and over. Crane gets
divorced but, in order to anchor his life in something that doesn't involve multiple body parts, he marries a normal, yet understanding, costar played by Maria Bello.
Once Heroes is canceled, Crane still enjoys recognition but needs money to carry on the techno-heavy lifestyle. He starts doing dinner theater — an awful looking comedy called Beginner's Luck — that allows him to carry on his activity all over the country. But the life, as well as Carpenter, begin to take their toll. Even ordinary actions become sex-driven to the point of awkwardness and he finds that his reputation hinders any chance for a comeback. Crane tries to break off his relationship with Carpenter, but that is more than likely what led to his murder in 1978 when he was bludgeoned to death with a camera tripod in a Scottsdale, Ariz., motel room.
Crane may seem like an unlikely subject for a feature film. He was known only for Hogan's Heroes, a show that made light of a German prisoner of war camp. Crane was average and typical of the 1950s. He went to church every Sunday and even at his darkest moments, never resorted to alcohol or drugs: his drink of choice at the strip clubs
Crane becomes trapped by his status, perfectly displayed in a dream sequence where he is sexually accosted by his costars as the walls of the set cave in on him, and finds that his temptations ultimately offer no satisfaction. Schrader's message is that there is no way of crossing the devil without paying the ultimate price.
was cranberry juice. This allows the film to examine the themes of star worship and sexual obsession without other details scrambling for the spotlight..
'AUTO FOCUS'
While Auto Focus has a lot going for it in message and performances, it does have trouble spots. The shifts in style almost come off as forced and seem to be too late in the point of the story. A small complaint for a film that is able to deftly examine the power of sex and television in concurrence so well.

'Santa' sequel looks like Christmas on acid
Hide the kids and break out the drugs it's a live-action head-trip from the Disney folks.
A. S. A. BALAKKAR
Stephen Shupe

As a companion piece to this summer's The Country Bears, Tim Allen's The Santa Clause 2 is a garish freak of nature. Flatulent reindeer, blow-up dolls prancing around like toy soldiers and a tooth fairy named Roy keep the proceedings permanently demented.
What, you may ask, is this critic smoking? After all, this is a kids' movie, and surely this sequel to 1994's The Santa Clause has no place alongside other films enhanced by hallucinogenic drugs (Pink Floyd: The Wall, Vanilla Sky). Maybe not, but I'd bet at least a few of Allen's multitude of screenwriters were on something when they wrote this cinematic sleigh crash.
I've seen a stallion head hacked off in The Godfather, an insectivorous typewriter in Naked Lunch and an army of maggots transformed into writhing nudists in The Ring, but none can match the horror of Santa's workshop in Clause 2. An art-deco nightmare with cathedral windows and translucent toy chutes, the North Pole abode looks primed for broadcast on MTV's architectural hall-of-shape,

the ever-popular Cribs.
At the workshop, Santa (Allen) and his elves busy themselves day and night with meeting the seasonal toy quota. The long hours would seem to violate a few dozen child-labor laws, given that all the little helpers are in the 12-and-under range, but Santa's too preoccupied for such legalities.
He's got to get married by Christmas
Eve, before he loses his gift-giving mojo. As a solution, he makes a toy replica of himself, hops on Comet's back and flies off to the States to find a missis.
The toy Santa, looking like the rotund twin of Buddy Christ from Dogma, is left behind to run the shop. Forgoing the traditional Santa-suit red for black fascist regalia, this synthetic St. Nick continues the Mouse House's predilection for pumping as much propaganda as possible into its product.
Clause 2 would also have us believe children should put holiday values ahead of their schoolwork, presumably so their parents — no matter how battered they are by the slumming economy— can purchase an infinite amount of Yuletide merchandise.
The real Santa, meanwhile, reunites with his troubled son Charlie (Eric Lloyd) and melts the heart of the boy's icy school principal, played by Elizabeth Mitchell. Lloyd gives the whiniest teen performance of the year (you're off the hook, Hayden Christensen), and Mitchell relies so heavily on acting tics that she effectively destroys Allen's more sincere efforts. It all ends up being about as heartwarming as a

There's a lot to like about David Krumholtz and Spencer Breslin as Santa's No.1 and No.2 and George S. Clinton's fanciful score goes a long way toward conjuring sentiment for the film out of thin air. The rest feels so corporate it's scary. Don't let that rating fool you -The Santa Clause 2 has been rated G for Greed, not General Audiences.
Disney was right to release the film closer to Thanksgiving than Christmas, because boy is it a turkey.

Personalized plates R-GR8
Vanity car tags provide vehicular individuality
By Todd Rapp trapp@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
A license plate that reads ZZZZOOM may make people think of a sports car or motorcycle. Definitely not a station wagon.
Chris Moore thinks it fits his station wagon, a 2002 Mazda Protege 5, just fine.
"I get teased about the car, and about the license plate," said Moore, Lawrence senior. "I get teased about it a lot, because it is a station wagon—a grocery getter."
The idea for the personalized plate came from the Mazda "Zoom Zoom" commercials.
"Because of the seven letter limit, I couldn't fit zoom zoom, so I got as much as you possibly could," Moore said.
Technical aspects aside, personalized plates offer students the chance to express themselves through their license plates.

Personalized plates naturally draw more attention than standard plates.
"I'll be driving down the road and people, mostly guys, will pull up and drive along with me," Finley said. "Sometimes they'll flash me their cell phone numbers either on a sign or with their hands."
Finley was pulled over once because she exceeded the speed limit by four miles an hour.
"He asked me if I thought he would let me go because I had 'DEVIOUS' on my tag," she said.
Officials at the Douglas County Treasurer's office said the increased attention had caused people to exchange personal
plates for standard plates.
There are approximately 2,800 personalized plates in Douglas County, composing an estimated 2.5 percent of the registered vehicles.
KU has 15,159 registered vehicles;278 of those have personal tags,said Jill Davis. administrative specialist for the parking department.
The tags are controlled by the county treasurer's office. To obtain a tag, applicants must have a vehicle registered with the county and a current license plate. The plates carry an additional fee of $44.25 after registration.
Two license plates are issued, but as of July 1, only the back plate is required to be on display.
Despite the teasing and increased attention, Moore takes pride in his Protege.

Student billiards players shoot for fun and profit

David Kihm looks out of place.
Older men, most of them wearing work shirts and gray beards, line the walls and shuffle between pool tables. Kihm's bright yellow t-shirt and boyish face seem to beg the question 'What are you doing here?'
"Some people say we look like Justin (Timberlake) and Britney (Spears)," his girlfriend Jennifer Garber said.
Garber, 17, stays close to Kihm's side, but she doesn't seem worried by her surroundings. In fact, she and Kihm sit, talk and laugh like regulars. That's because they are.
John Nowak/Kansan
Kihm, an 18 year-old Lawrence freshman, plays in the Billiard Congress of America pool league every Tuesday night at Astro's, a pool bar at 601 Kasold Drive. This session of the league is in its fourth of 21 weeks, and it's Kihm's second consecutive season playing with this team.
"I used to gamble almost everyday last summer," he says. "But then everybody at The Pool Room kind of got to know me. They got to know me around here too."
He wasn't getting rich, maybe $20-$25 a night, but not a bad return for shooting pool.
David Kihm, Lawrence freshman, takes aim at the corner pocket at Astro's, 601 Kasold Drive. Kihm also plays competitively in leagues and tournaments and has several victories to his name.
aging five members per team. The grand prize is $2500-$3000 for the winning team, but most players are there for the camaraderie.
The league at Astro's has 12 teams, aver-
These days, Kihm plays mostly in leagues and tournaments, winning $50 and then $30 as the champion of two contests at Emerson Biggin's Sports Bar and Grill, 3512 Clinton Parkway, recently.
"It pretty much runs itself," Chad Landis, manager of Astro's, said of the league. "The only problem I have is not having enough tables for people just coming in to shoot."
Each of the league players has a ranking. Players earn 10 points for every game if they win, and a point for every ball they put down if they lose. His or her total points are then divided by the number of games played to get a rating of 1-10.
A handful of players in the league including Kihm's teammate, Lawrence resident Aaron Pfannestiel—are nines. Kihm is an eight and so is his other teammate Ben Erwin.
Erwin, 48, treats Kihm and Garber like part of his family. He mixes a little philosophy, advice and slightly off-color jokes to keep the mood light and establish the chemistry he looks for in his pool teams.
"He's kind of the wise sage on the team," Kihm said.
Erwin lives up to the title moments later, as Kihm calls timeout to ask his advice on a shot. Kihm shifts from foot to foot and chews on his fingernail, while Erwin speaks. After conferring for a few seconds they agree the best strategy is to play a safety—a defensive shot that is designed to leave the opponent with a difficult shot. The play works perfectly, and after the other player misses, Kihm sinks the rest of
his balls for another victory.
"See that right there?" Kihm says, gesturing to the cue ball. "That's the difference between a good player and a mediocre player."
He's right. The man misses his next shot, and Erwin clears the table, winning his sixth match of the night.

Microwaves the alternative to clunky appliances
By Kelly McNearney

For fear of that scary, antiquated appliance called the oven and lack of patience for dealing with that strange stove thing, students are throwing just about any food into the microwave.
Sean Henning, Leawood freshman, lives in Oliver Hall and uses the microwave in his room to cook noodles, hot dogs, sandwiches and grilled cheese.
"It's more just a warm cheese. It's not really grilled," Henning said. "It doesn't sound that great, but it's light and it's good."
Henning works at the Oliver Hall front desk and said some students used the
kitchen in the residence hall. He said he had roasted some pumpkin seeds over Halloween.
Others used the kitchen more frequently.
"There's one guy who makes a lot of omelettes," Henning said.
Scott Self, Liberty, Mo., freshman, said he had not used the student kitchen and preferred his microwave.
Not all students are keen on the idea of cooking with large appliances.
"I didn't know where it was for a long time. I'm not real big on cooking," Self said.
Self said he ate all meals at the Oliver Hall cafeteria but cooked Easy Mac or ramen noodles in his microwave when he needed a snack.

Byars said she did not cook mostly because real cooking took too much time and effort. The only type of cooking she does is baking cookies.
Byars and her roommates rely upon the George Foreman Lean Mean Fat Reducing Grilling Machine for some meals.
"I like to eat cookie dough a lot," said —Edited by Amy Schmitz
"One time I made three hot dogs in there," she said. "They turned out pretty good, though. I don't know why I didn't put them in the microwave. I guess I thought they'd be better on the Foreman."

Award nominees get little literary attention
By Henry C. Jackson
cjackson@kansan.com
Jayplay Writer
This year's National Book Award nominees in fiction have a common trait; they have generated almost no buzz in the literary community. Perhaps that's because they have a tough act to follow.
Last year's winner, Jonathan Franzen's The Corrections, was the most talked about book of the last five years. While The Corrections received a plethora of deservedly good reviews, much of the hullabaloo stemmed from a high-profile feud with TV talk show host Oprah Winfrey.
This year's NBA contenders are comparatively tame: none of the nominees has published more than one other novel before being nominated, let alone had a standoff with a media mogul. That doesn't mean they're not worthy. Here's the lowdown on this year's NBA fiction nominees; check them out before the winner is announced Nov. 20.
Three Junes (Pantheon Books) by Julia Glass
Julia Glass' impressive debut novel, *Three Junes*, was a *Good Morning America* book club pick, but hasn't shot up *The New York Times* best-seller list. That's not to say it shouldn't—Glass' voice
THREE
JUNES
JULIA GLOBE
is strong and artful as she takes the reader through three separate summers in the McLeod family. Glass skillfully navigates all kinds of issues - loneliness, friendship and love - through a variety of wonderfully described settings such as Greece, rural Scotland and even the swanky Hamptons neighborhoods of upstate New York.
You Are Not a Stranger Here (Doubleday) by Adam Haslett
Franzen tapped Adam Haslett's stirring debut collection of short stories, You Are Not a Stranger Here for inclusion in the Today book club. Dealing with a variety of issues, such as mental illness, homosexuality, loss and the awkwardness of a first sexual encounter, You Are Not a Stranger Here impresses often — particularly when you consider Haslett is still a law student at Yale University.

Big If (W.W. Norton & Company) by Mark Costello
Mark Costello's Big If is driven by its main character, Vi Apslund, a female secret service agent who takes on the high stress post of covering the vice president during the New Hampshire primary. While this
Big If
MARK COSTALO
seems like it's leading to a Tom Clancy-type plot, it's not. Big If is more Colson Whitehead - quirky, extremely funny and astoundingly smart - than it is Clancy action thriller. Nonetheless, Costello's first solo literary effort is driven by an interesting and quick-moving plot (something Clancy's known for) and well-drawn characters (something Clancy is definitely not known for).
The Heaven of Mercury (W.W. Norton & Company) by Brad Watson
A Southern gothic novel of a different sort, Brad Watson's The Heaven of Mercury brings something new to a genre that has more or less become a rite of passage for writers who grew up below the
THE HEAVEN
OF MERCURY
BRAU MATSON
Mason Dixon line. Set in the aggressively small town of Mercury, Miss., Mercury will no doubt stir up comparisons to William Faulkner, the original Southern gothic writer.
Gorgeous Lies (Harcourt Brace) by Martha McPhee
Martha McPhee, with one praised novel, Bright Angel Time, to her credit, is the "veteran" of this year's NBA award list. Writing, it seems, runs in McPhee's family: her father, John McPhee is a celebrated

essayist. Martha McPhee's latest offering, Gorgeous Lies, is a complex family drama set in New Jersey, where the Furey family gathers as their patriarch lies on his deathbed with pancreatic cancer. Beautifully written and possessing the sort of pedigree that the NBA tends to look for. Lies may be the favorite to take this year's award.

Diet gimmicksthin only the billfold
Ten people want to lose weight. They are all prescribed diet pills, and then after a few weeks eight of them have shed some pounds. Simple math tells us that if the goal is to lose weight, then diet pills are a success.
HEALTH
Leslie Kimmel
lkimmel@kansan.com
Not so fast. Let's say that the same 10 people begin to exercise and eat well, and eight of them are still able to lose weight Which one of these plans works best when it comes to dropping unwanted pounds?
Exercising and eating well - the one that is not only the most natural and causes the fewest side effects, but also has been proven for centuries to have guaranteed results.
Diet and weight loss pills have a significant effect on the user's blood pressure, metabolism and general health. Some side effects include hypertension, dizziness, nausea, irregular menstrual periods and more.
Many people are well aware of these risks, but pop diet pills despite medical warnings. They figure that if it can make them go down a few sizes, then the supplements really can't be all that bad.
Part of this belief might be because of false advertisements generated by the billion-dollar weight loss industry. The Federal Trade Commission looked at 300 diet supplement ads and found that 40 percent were false-claim advertisements, and 55 percent contained claims that couldn't be substantiated.
Diet pills either suppress your appetite or they speed up your metabolism, allowing you to burn calories more quickly.
Therefore, you drop weight. Sounds like the perfect solution, right?
Wrong. As you reduce your calorie intake, your metabolism also slows down. As your metabolism slows, the amount of weight you lose also slows down.
Pills that increase your metabolism can permanently alter your metabolism — for the worse. They often raise it so high that when you stop taking the pills, your metabolism drops to a lower level than when you started taking the pills.
Thus, you not only gain back the weight you lost, but you can gain back even more. And the risks of certain diet and weight loss drugs increase dramatically the longer they are used.
This is why they should only be used if prescribed by a doctor. Diet pills work best when you are seriously overweight, have tried the diet and weight loss plan without success and the pills are combined with regular exercise and a proper diet.
The Food and Drug Administration also recommends that those looking to lose weight be aware of a few products available on the market.
Fat blockers, which promise to interfere with the fat a person eats, and starch blockers, which promise to block starch digestion, can cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and stomach pains.
Fillers, which are fiber-based products that absorb liquid and swell in the stomach so that you feel full, can cause obstructions in the intestines, stomach and esophagus.
Diet patches that are worn on the skin are not effective or safe. In fact, the FDA recalled millions of patches from manufacturers and promoters.
Just remember anything that claims to melt away fat really is too good to be true.
Don't forget your winter hat this season
FASHION
For my friend's birthday a few weeks ago I got her a card that had a picture, circa 1930, of two women sitting on the beach with hats on. Inside, it said, "As they wake up on the beach the morning after the birthday celebration, wondering what they had done the night before, they took comfort in the fact that they still had their hats on."
Sarah Behunek sbehunek@kansan.com
It was perfect, because hats are our trademark: decorative to go out and baseball caps to hide our bed head at work in the morning.
One hat that is plastered all over the pages of glossy magazines is the Russian "cossack" hat. It reminds me of the hunters in the cartoon movie Peter and the Wolf. Usually made from fox, otter and rabbit fur, these cylindrical "top hats" combine culture and couture. Animal cruelty aside, these head adornments are the mode, especially at J. Mendel Boutique, a Madison Avenue shop in New York City. Mendel is renowned for his fur craftsmanship and has an ad featured in the September Vogue with models flaunting the loud head accessory, ear flaps and all. A humbler, more Lawrence, version is your best bet if you are inclined to be a Midwest fashion risk-taker. A faux fur version can ward
Another faddish hat is the pageboy, which has actually reached downtown Lawrence. It is stylish but not in the "look at me" way the Madison Avenue cossack is. Although it would be lacking in our winter wonderland that is Mount Oread, say, midJanuary, this style can still be pulled off right now. Kind of taxi-driver, mostly news boy, this hat actually reminds me of my grandpa but I invested in a corduroy one anyway. It can be pulled off. Do not get hung-up on the image of a 70-year-old driving at 30 miles an hour with this hat on. Paired with anything vintage and a thick, cable-knit scarf, this
off the protesters and has all the panache of the real thing. Or a cheaper, cossack-inspired headdress such as the earflap hat by Arden B is a fashionable investment.
headwear is a more retro option than your average baseball cap.
Next on tap is the bucket hat. Known best for its warm weather wear-ability, the fisherman fashion actually comes in a below-freezing adaptation. Wearing a felted or suede bucket hat is a practical buy for the winter weather and is suitable for any occasion; from class to the bar. The shearling crusher (furry under-sided bucket hat) by Coach is even more seasonable, with furry insulation to keep the freezing Kansas wind from nipping at your ears.
And we cannot forget the most classic winter head accessory, the finest in cold weather fashion — the snow cap — or beanie, or ski cap, or whatever you want to call it. It is the most diverse in its design; snowflakes, speckled, cable-knit — snow caps have it all. The only downside is it is the one hat that will ruin your hair for the rest of the day, even if you wear it from your car or the bus stop to class.
Even though there is not as much daylight and getting out of your warm bed for class is that much harder, this season obviously has its upside: cool hats for cool weather.

HEALTHQ&A
Jayplay is working with HOMEBASE to answer questions about body acceptance, healthy eating and physical fitness. Students in health-related fields will answer readers' questions every week. Submit questions to achap@ukans.edu. Participants will remain anonymous.
Q: Is Slim Fast a good way to lose weight, and is it a good meal replacement?
A: Slim Fast products are used as a meal replacement for one to two meals a day followed by a "sensible, well balanced" dinner and a recommendation of two to three snacks during the day. Following the Slim Fast plan one would expect an intake between 1200 to 1400 calories per day.
Unlike many other meal replacements, Slim Fast products do provide a sound base of nutrients. The products are milk-based (fat-free milk) and are fortified with vitamins, minerals and fiber. They contain no drugs, stimulants, or appetite suppressants, which can hinder health. Two Slim Fast shakes a day provide approximately 440 calories, 70 percent of the recommended daily allowance of 23 vitamins and minerals, 80 percent of the RDA for calcium, 10 grams of fiber, 20 grams of protein and two to six grams of fat. The Slim Fast soy products are lactose free and can provide additional protein from the soy.
However, a healthy diet is based on a variety of foods. A diet full of bars and shakes can become tiresome so a variety of healthy foods should always serve as the diet foundation. Slim Fast products are also heavily fortified in various vitamins and minerals. Drinking three to four shakes a day provide more than the recommended amount of vitamins and minerals, and that could cause adverse health effects if consumed in large amounts over a long period of time.
Educating one's self on healthy food choices is the key to healthy weight loss and weight maintenance. An exercise plan could also benefit one's diet goals. Slim Fast products can be healthy, but a healthy diet should always be the focus.

Food column to feature readers' survey requests
If there is one thing I learned from attending cooking school in Florence, Italy, and from my mentor, chef Antonio Cecconi, simplicity is the key to fantastic cooking. If cooking means popping a frozen dinner into the microwave is as easy as it gets, then there's a need for cooking lesson 101, pronto.
EAT THIS
LAFTWRC
Don't worry, I am here to help you with all of your cooking needs and you, the avid reader, have helped me by taking my food survey online at kansan.com. From the hundreds of you who responded, each week I will now give you the meals you asked for. Whether it's burritos, fried rice or lasagna, each recipe will be to your liking and will represent the 83 percent of you college students' budget of $25 to $50 per week. It's all for you ladies and gents and as Rob Schneider says in the movie, Waterboy, "You can do it!"
You asked for it. As Chinese food was ranked highest for wishing to cook more of, here is a simple meal for only $13.48.
Chicken Lo Mein (omit chicken for vegetarian dish)
Serve with chopsticks, fresh fruit,and a glass of iced tea. Tip: This dish also can be made with a single electric burner.
Contributed art
7 ounces of cooked Chinese noodles
6 oz. of boneless, skinless, ready-to-eat
chicken strips, shredded
1 cup of broccoli florets
1 cup of sliced mushrooms
1/2 to 1 cup of snow peas
1/2 cup sliced or shredded baby carrots
1/2 cup sliced red pepper
1/2 cup of bean sprouts (can be found in

2 tablespoons of vegetable oil 1/2 cup water
Heat oil over medium heat in a large sauté pan or wok. Add garlic, broccoli, mushrooms, snow peas, carrots, red pepper and bean sprouts and sauté until all vegetables are tender. Mix in cooked chicken and spaghetti.Add oyster flavored sauce and soy sauce to vegetable and pasta mixture, and toss. Serve in a large bowl.
Servings: 2. Low in fat.
Jayplay food survey results:
Males and females participated in the survey in equal numbers. More juniors and seniors cook — two to four days per week according to the survey — than sophomores and freshmen. Only 10 percent of the participants were vegetarians, and more than 90 percent of the participants live in a house or an apartment. Interestingly, the few of those surveyed who live in a residence hall said that they wouldn't mind cooking if provided the proper facilities.
Ninety-three percent buy food items that are low in fats and calories, with very little concern for fiber, protein, calcium, vitamins A and B and iron. Most participats took 30 to 45 minutes to cook a meal and thought they were moderately good cooks.
Eighty-three percent the participants spent between $25 and $50 per week on food. Students in the survey enjoyed cooking because it was healthier than eating out. This was definitely skewed toward the upperclassmen. It seems the older students are, the less need there is for fast food.
Chinese food was found to be the "most wanted to know how to cook" more than any other ethnic cooking. It seems like the Asian region was very popular as Japanese came in a close second. Italian came in third with Mexican and Indian following. A few of you listed "other."
Thank you to everyone who participated in the survey.

Changing sex partners means changing tactics
SEX
SEX
It's pretty common knowledge that losing your virginity can be a stressful event. Suddenly there's so much more to worry about when two people decide to go all the way. Even getting the event started can be a testament to great courage and incentive. Luckily, there are quite a few words of wisdom on the subject to help virgins on their ways.
Meghan Bainum mbainum@kansan.com
But there isn't much written on the fact that getting back in the sexual saddle again can be almost — if not more — stressful than heading out on the erotic range for the first time. It doesn't matter if your number is one or 100, adding another partner to the good old sexual roster can turn a formerly frisky lover into a puddle of nerves and stress.
Nerves and stress do little to enhance a person's sexual performance, making whatever it is the person is stressing about
almost more likely to happen. We humans can freak out so much about certain things that we cause them to become reality instead of just bad dreams or thoughts.
See, after taking the leap into sexual activity, people start to figure out what needs to be done to really get themselves and their partners off.
When you change the partner, though, you change everything. Suddenly that patented penis move you used to keep on
heavy rotation for the thrill of your last lover does nothing to send your current erotic interest into the moan zone. In fact, it does nothing but make them look at you, slightly confused, before trying to play along.
Yikes. The thing is, a virgin could merely claim sexual incompetence, which should lead the lover - if more skilled - into a highly pleasurable training session; if less skilled, into a naughty game of sexual experimentation. The more experienced individual, however, is often left trying to over-compensate for the possible sexual snafu.
Overcompensation can often turn into frustration and body parts rubbed raw in a frantic pursuit of pleasure. Still, nobody ever became a good lover without a little trial and error.
The key is to approach sex like a veritable virgin every time you get with a new lover. There's no guarantee that your new sexual partner will like that thing you do with your tongue that sent your last flame to the heights of ecstasy. But instead of fearing for your sexual life, just relish the opportunity to teach your old tongue, penis, fingers or vagina some new tricks.
What is absolutely necessary for having good sex is that you and your partner having enough confidence to experiment and talk about what gets the job done and what doesn't. Long discussions aren't necessary a simple "oh yeah," or "right there," will do just fine.
Much like playing any sort of musical instrument, having sex takes practice to learn the fingerings and notes before you can really play what you want, and have it sound good. Sex is just a little bit more fun to practice.
Sandler in 'Punch-Drunk' intoxicating to critics
Actors are forced to reckon with two groups of critics—the general population and movie critics who get paid to spend almost all of their waking hours in a dark room carefully observing every nuance, eye twitch and facial gesture.
Now in most cases, these two groups of critics have entirely different viewpoints. Movies that professional critics spend their time raving about appear only in art houses and generally get overlooked by the public, who go to see the blockbusters that the critics spend their time trashing. One actor the general public loves and the critics despise is Adam Sandler.
Sandler has appeared in smash comedies, such as Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore and The Wedding Singer that the general public, and especially college students, can't seem to get enough of. But he seems to find respect
from the professional critics about as easily as Rob Schneider. When he comes out with a new movie, the critics rip it apart and say he has hit a new low, as if they considered Billy Madison Oscar-worthy.
However, his latest role in Punch-Drunk Love is actually garnering him something that he never has gotten before — respect. And it's not coming from a bunch of 13-year-olds, but from critics who wanted to shoot themselves in the head while they were watching Sandler hallucinating that he saw a giant penguin in Billy Madison.
What's unfortunate is that it's doubtful he is going to get as much love from the box office as he has seen in the past. Punch-Drunk Love just came out, so it's still too early to tell, but I wouldn't be surprised if it makes significantly less money than films such as The Waterboy, Big Daddy or even
POP VULTURE
Marc Ingber
wingsber@kangan.com
(gasp!) Little Nicky.It's unlike any role he has had and it's too strange to appeal to a mass audience.
Paul Thomas Anderson made the film. His previous movies such as Boogie Nights and Magnolia may have been "like butta" to the critics,but they've been somewhat of a letdown at the box office.Anderson must be commended for hiring Sandler for his movie because Sandler isn't exactly
the critics' darling. Anderson using Sandler is the equivalent of Radiohead saying it's going to collaborate with Mandy Moore on its next album.
However, the bigger Kudos bar must be handed to Sandler because he went out on a limb and actually played a role that shows acting depth.
So it's hard to say if Sandler is going to take home any Oscars at the Academy Awards, but if he does, I think it's safe to say that I can die happy. I was an Adam Sandler fan when Billy Madison came out. And I knew that just because I thought he deserved an Oscar for the "puppy who lost his way" speech, it didn't mean the critics would. So if he does win this year, I will be overtaken by euphoria, announce been restored.

Residents complain of 'construction'
By Adrian Zink
beak@kansan.com
Kansan satire writer
The residents of Ellsworth Hall are becoming increasingly upset at what they view as 'construction' and 'remodeling' going on in their residence hall rooms. Complaints range from walls being torn down while students try to do homework, falling bricks and showers being replaced by new ones while residents are showering.
"This is so annoying," said Manny Katz, Ratholle sophomore, "I can hardly get any privacy with all of these hardhats tearing up the walls and ceiling. Don't they realize that they can't just barge in and start tearing things down?
"What do they think they are doing, remodeling the place?"
"This is so annoying. I can hardly get any privacy with all of these dang hardhats tearing up the walls and ceiling."

Others complain of a 'fence' surrounding the entrance to the dorm, making it difficult to enter.
"Every morning I wake up with dust and asbestos all over me," said Bile Dean, Garden City freshman, "I'm going to complain to my RA."
The University of Kansas denies any "construction conspiracies" that may be circulating among the students.
Students drop pounds with University diet
By Brandon Gay
beak@kansan.com
Kansan satire writer
Recent studies have shown that America's weight problem continues to grow, especially among young people. However, some students trying to lose weight with dieting, exercise and pills are finding success with the University of Kansas' diet plan, generally referred to as "enrollment."
The diet plan began with the founding of the University in 1864 and has been a biannual University tradition ever since. Registrar Richard C. Morrell, who oversees the workout, said it was now better than ever.
"It used to be we would just have students come to Strong Hall, form a long line, do a few jumping jacks and then have them fill out a punch card," Morrell said. "But now, we've really improved things. We still form the line, but now we make them run all over campus getting Dean's stamps, closed class openers, permits to enroll and getting parking holds removed. It's really intense. By the time they are done, they will have completed checkpoints all over campus. Plus, we keep them away from tempting food all day."
The diet plan requires all students to come to Strong Hall once every semester. Some students choose to train for the big day by going through an enrollment trial run called "advising." Others prefer to be surprised.
When students arrive at Strong Hall, they form the "line of reflection." In the line, students wait for about 30 minutes mentally preparing themselves for what is to come. After they get through the line, they are redirected to the parking department to clear their holds. Upon returning to Strong Hall, they are allowed to enroll in one or two classes before being sent on a cross-country style run around campus, collecting papers, cards and stamps.
"I lost 10 pounds this year," said Suzi Jameson, Emporia senior. "I had recently put on a lot of weight, but after all that running around campus, I fit into all of my clothes again."

Taylor Stroopman, Leavenworth sophomore, is on the University Diet Plan, or "enrolment". Stroopman said the plan has pushed his body and mind to new limits. "It hurts," he said, "it really hurts".
Some students worry they will regain all the weight they lost before their next enrollment session. However, Jameson said that wouldn't be a problem for her.
"After you pay for your classes, who can afford food?" she said.
Carrot Top: Russians 'complete morons'
By Henry C. Jackson beak@kansan.com Kansan satire writer
MOSCOW - Russian officials today denied being "complete morons," after comedic legend Carrot Top accused the former Communist republic of idiocy in the wake of last month's terrorist siege.
"We respect Mr. Carrot Top's position both as a dignitary and a person whose opinion my country respects," Russian President Vladimir Putin said. "However, we reject the notion that we are 'complete morons.' I think that's unfair."
Carrot Top, speaking at a press conference
"Why not start blaring audio of my comedy routines?" Carrot Top said. "That worked when I wanted to get people out of my house. Or, even better, a Gallagher comedy routine would certainly have proved the government was not playing around, without, of course, causing anyone any permanent harm."
attended by the 17 people in the world who find his 1-800-CALL-ATT ads funny, said Russian officials should have considered alternative ways to resolve the hostage situation that arose after armed Chechen rebels overtook a crowded Moscow theatre last month.
"I think Mr. Carrot Top's not fully aware of the effect that his, and Mr. Gallagher's, routines could have," Putin said. "We have to consider that the loss of life might have been less, but the permanent scarring from prolonged exposure to Mr. Carrot Top and Mr. Gallagher would make life seem not worth living for a good portion of the Russian populous. Given the alternative, we may have made the right choice."
Putin, however, rejected Carrot Top's alternative plan as both "cruel," and "just as deadly."
Carrot Top stood by his stance.
"Putin thinks he's so smart," he said. "But he's not. He's dumber than me, and I'm dumb. A complete moron. He's not funny, and he doesn't have a ginger-colored mop on his head."

'Everybody poops' hard to accept
By Joe Stephenson
beak@kansan.com
Kansan beat writer
Lawrence resident Don Pommeroy, 31, has been asking his family and friends to help him accept the fact that everybody poops. Pommeroy said he had been struggling with that fact for about a year and a half. He said it started when he was buying a book for his son in the children's section of the bookstore and saw a book titled Everybody Poops.
"For some reason the title of the book just got to me and I have been thinking about it ever since," said Pommeroy. "Iguess I know that it's true, but I'm having trouble accepting it. I know it's a natural body function, but still, I mean it is just hard to picture some people pooing. I saw Jennifer Anniston doing an interview on TV the
"I have never seen anyone obsess over something as stupid as this. Everyone poops; get over it!"
"I know it's a natural body function, but still, I mean it is just hard to picture some people pooping." Don Pommeroy Lawrence resident
Psychologist Bryan Pinchloaf said it was normal for people to have trouble picturing other people pooping. He does admit that Pommeroy's case is special though.
Pommeroy's wife Tina said she would file for divorce if her husband continued to talk about poop.
Pommeroy went on, "this concept just blows my mind. I mean it's just so hard to picture the queen pooping, or Tiger Woods pooping or Sylvester Stalone, OK Stalone's not so hard to picture, but how about Bill Gates, even with all his money, he still poops."
other day and all I could think about was, gee, she's gotta poop sometime."
"This is just ridiculous, we can't even watch a movies anymore without him pointing at the screen and saying, 'That guy there, you know he poops,'" Tina said. "It is wrecking our marriage, and above all else he needs to spend less time thinking about poop and more time with our son."

'Rent'deserves ovation
By Kristi Henderson
khenderson@kansan.com
Jayplay editor
To get the young demographic in the theater, musicals need to change.
Rent, which was performed at the Lied Center Monday and Tuesday, has done just that. Where normally there would be a pit orchestra, there was a rock band on stage with an electric guitar and drums. And where the plot would usually follow
innocent, well-to-do characters, Rent features realistic characters with AIDS drug addictions and barely enough money to get by.
Based on Puccini's opera La Bohemé, Rent follows the lives of a group of friends struggling to make it in New York. Along the way, they deal with love, money and death.
The songs balance between poignant and funny. "Without You," one of the most well-known, is a love ballad that brought
tears to faces in the audience. Voice mails sung by Mark's (Ashton Holmes) mother offset the seriousness, ensuring the audience did not become depressed.
The singing was strong for the majority of the performance.
Angel (Justin Rodriguez) hit the notes perfectly from low to high registers, using his entire body to vividly reflect the emotion of the lyrics. Mimi (Krystal L. Washington) belted out the low register in her solos.
But, she had difficulty achieving the same intensity as she climbed the scales. The ensemble songs made up for any subpar solo because the company smoothly blended its harmonies.
The acting was not as consistently strong as the singing because the actors sometimes tried too hard. This probably came from the limited experience of the traveling cast's members, who may have thought their point wouldn't get across unless they overstated it.
Maureen's (Cassie Levy) first appearance, which comes at nearly the end of act one, is well worth the wait. It is a hilarious, overly dramatic performance piece that ends with the audience mooing with Maureen.
The performers overcame their few flaws and, by the curtain call, the cast had turned in a performance worthy of its standing ovation.

Task force seeks improvement for grad students
By Erin Beaty
ebantse@kansan.com
kantse staff writer
The provost's task force on graduate education recently completed the first draft of its final report and has made it available for public comment.
Task force members will be available to hear feedback about the report at a meeting from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. today at the Sunflower Room in the Burge Union.
The task force, composed of faculty, staff and graduate students from throughout the University, has been meeting since January and has made 20 recommendations for actions across various levels at the University.
John Colombo, associate dean of the graduate school and chairman of the task force, said the "It's not about getting bigger but about improving graduate students' experience."
ations John Colombo
fell under three Associate dean of the graduate school handling
First, KU graduate education needs greater visibility and a higher position in the University.
Second, the link between the University's research mission and graduate education should be enhanced.
Last, graduate education needs to be better measured and evaluated, so administrators know why or why not graduate students apply to KU, whether they are satisfied, and what needs to be improved, he said.
"We hope that some of our recommendations will be followed," Colombo said. "It's not about getting bigger, but about improving graduate students' experience."
One area addressed by the task force's report is KU's ranking in the number of doctorates produced, which has dropped nine places in the last three years.
A recommendation made in the report was to increase graduate teaching assistant and graduate research assistant salaries and benefits.
"Pay is definitely a big issue," said Jennifer Ivie, Broken Arrow, Okla, graduate student in psychology.
Ivie said the facilities were crowded and not maintained. She said seven GTAs, including herself, shared one office in Fraser Hall.
Andrew Mitchell, Topeka graduate student in religious studies, said the religious studies department should have a doctorate program.
"If we had a Ph.D. program, our status would improve not only in the Midwest, but also in the country," Mitchell said.

Group protests corporate paper policy
By George Schulz
gschulz@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Protesting deforestation caused by logging companies, members of the KU Environons simulated a clash between old-growth forests and executives of the Boise corporation on Wescoe Beach yesterday.
Two members of the group, dressed as businessmen, pretended to "tear down" another student dressed as a tree to highlight what they said was Boise's (formerly known as Boise Cascade) abuse and neglect of the environment.
Members of the group also
"We respect everyone's right to free speech, but with that right comes the responsibility to tell the truth."
Ralph Poore Boise senior communications associate
wielded a chainsaw, minus the chain, to symbolize a battle between clear-cutting machinery and endangered old-growth forests harvested for printing paper.
The Environs believed dramatizing the issue would attract the attention of students walking
along Jayhawk Boulevard.
"People who would normally walk by might stop and learn about the issue," said Trisha Shrum, Olathe sophomore. "It's also symbolic of CEOs beating up on nature."
A representative of Boise had a different opinion about the company's position on the environment.
"We respect everyone's right to free speech, but with that right comes the responsibility to tell the truth," said Ralph Poore, senior communications associate for Boise. "These types of groups have ignored information we've provided time and again."

Grads moving into a new life

Being a first-time homeowner provides challenges for students
It is a rarity for students to own their homes. Kelly Bach, Grand Forks, N.D., graduate student, has owned her home for the past three years.

Interest rates, job status, the housing market and credit history affect how much homeowners dish out on a mortgage payment. All these factors vary with time, said Robert Baker, branch director for Housing and Credit Counseling in Lawrence.
Some University of Kansas graduates look to buy their first homes immediately after leaving the University, said Amy Cleavinger, vice president and loan manager for Capitol Federal Savings in Lawrence.
Timing is everything for first-time home buyers.
Patrick McCarty, Emporia senior, said he would move into a house immediately after graduation if he had secured a job that provided enough income.
"If I could do it, that would be great," McCarty said.
Bad credit history and lack of savings
are the main reasons banks turn away loan applicants, Cleavinger said.
Banks like to see first-time applicants who have stayed in a specific line of work for two years before applying for a loan, she said.
New graduates can be an exception to this rule by providing diplomas or transcripts for the bank to review, Cleavinger
said. By showing lenders that they are moving into a career they have prepared for during their college years, many of these students get approval right out of college.
But Housing and Credit Counseling suggests students wait longer to buy a

Web site encourages anorexics, bulimics
By Lindsay Hanson
ihanson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Thirty-year-old Tita Griffen saw the Internet as a platform to testify anonymously about her struggle with anorexia and bulimia, which she has been battling since age 12.
Griffen, resident of Studio City, Calif., has sought help from 14 therapists. She said a lack of expertise on the professional level drove her to the Internet several years ago. But when she began her quest for recovery advice, Griffin stumbled upon several sites that aimed to propel her in the opposite direction.
"It's every anorexic or bulimic's worst nightmare," she said.
"It's something akin to the alcoholic inviting everyone to a round of drinks," Griffen said.
The Web sites, tagged as pro-ana or pro-anorexia, and pro-mia or probulimia, flaunt pictures of emaculated runway models and cater to those who already have eating disorders and don't want to recover. Several sites provide chat forums for visitors to exchange tips on fasting and purging.
Griffen said the sites aimed to pull people down who were already
entrenched in the illnesses.
"I love when I go out to eat with my friends and all of them are stuffing their faces but me," she wrote. "I'm just sitting there with my water. It's very satisfying."
A member of a chat site, "Kendra," wrote that the trick to becoming fully anorexic was passing the third day of fasting.
Some of the topics posted in one of the sites are titled, "I need an ana buddy!" and, "How do I cover up the smell?"
Griffen said society misperceived the origin of eating disorders in a person.
"Most people in society look at you like you have a food problem," she said. "It's no longer about food — it's how you interact."
The interaction that an online forum provides facilitates competition among those with eating disorders, posing great danger to the vulnerable, said Ed Bloch.

Four of infamous group plead guilty to 1975 murder
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Four former members of the Symbionese Liberation Army agreed to plead guilty to murder yesterday in the shotgun slaying of a bank customer during a 1975 holdup and will get six to eight years each in prison.
The four are: William Harris; his ex-
wife, Emily Montague; Michael Bortin;
and
and Sara Jane Olson, who is already serving time in prison for a 1975 attempt to bomb two Los Angeles police cars.
They were charged with first-degree murder but agreed to plead guilty to second-degree murder in a deal with prosecutors to avoid a possible sentence of life in prison.
They were arrested last January in the slaying of Myrna Opsahl, a 42-year-old housewife who was gunned down while depositing her church collection at Crocker National Bank in suburban Sacramento.
A fifth person was charged in the bank robbery, 55-year-old James Kiligore, but he has been a fugitive since 1976.
All five belonged to the 1970s revolutionary group that kidnapped newspaper heiress Patricia Hearst.
Concern growing in N.Y. over low test scores
ALBANY, N.Y.—School superintendents across New York are offering letters to students that urge college admissions officers to ignore the surprisingly low scores in a statewide physics exam earlier this year.
"We believe the physics Regents exam grade to be suspect," according to the letter obtained yesterday from the state Council of School Superintendents. The group complains the state's scoring method designed to give more points for harder questions was "flawed."
An accompanying letter from the association to its members states: "We further realize that the letter may have the unintended consequence of undermining the credibility of our Regents exams" but the need to protect students outweighed those concerns.
The superintendents' letter comes at a time when 10 school districts are suing to raise the scores on the test taken by about 40,000 students in June.

Patients of music therapy clinic work through issues with song
By Louise Stauffer
lstauffer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Without music therapy, it is almost impossible for Joe Steffy, a 16-year-old who has autism, to answer the question, "Do you like basketball, yes or no?"
But set to music, he can say "yes."
Steffy is a client of the music therapy clinic at the University of Kansas, and his mother, Janet, said it changed the way her son expressed himself. Before attending music therapy, Janet said doctors told her Joe could not put a sentence together longer than two words.
She said that the third time they were at the clinic he put five words together: "I want to play basketball."
janet was amazed and thankful for the program.
KU has 47 undergraduate students,54 students working on masters degrees and four students working on doctoral degrees in the music therapy program, which began 50 years ago, said Cynthia Colwell, director of the program. She said the program was in the top three in the nation. It is found within the School of Fine Arts.
Music therapy helps people with social, mental, and cognitive problems, Colwell said. She said it could help clients of all ages reduce anxiety, study and work out problems with parents or peers.
Patients play drumming accompaniment with the therapist to work out aggression or practicing breathing to the rhythm of an instrument to reduce anxiety. Therapy can also help clients express themselves. If a patient is having problems with a peer, the therapist may instruct them to work on writing a song together, or playing in an ensemble.
Music therapy can help someone work through frustrating issues. Colwell said if patients were irritated with their parents, they could be instructed to write a song that expressed their feeling, have the parent listen to the song
and have the parent write a song in response.
Janette Harrison, Hoisington senior and music therapy major, is working on her practicum as a music therapist. Harrison has her own clients, including Joe, and is observed by a board certified music therapist. She said she often found herself explaining her major to the curious.
"When I tell them my major, I get this weird look," she said.
Harrison said she wished more people knew how legitimate music therapy was.
"There are so many different areas where it can be used," she said. "It's used in homes, schools, hospitals and prisons."
You don't have to play an instrument, or read music at all to receive music therapy. Colwell said. Janet Steffy said Joe participated by playing instruments that require no training, such as hand drums. But therapists are required to specialize in one instrument and play two more as accompaniment.
Both live and prerecorded
music, such as CDs, are used in music therapy.
Harrison said she preferred using live music with a client to adjust the tempo of the music to meet the clients needs.
When recorded music is used, the genre is up to the client. Whether the artist is Guns N'Roses or Enya (Joe's favorite), the therapist will find a way to make it work for the therapy session.
The therapist and client can set up techniques that can be used anytime to help with problems such as stress, anxiety, or studying.
Music therapy is not for everyone. Colwell said the clinic's clients were usually referred by a doctor or psychologist who prescribed social or cognitive goals.
Janet said the therapy program had shown her son's ability to shine.
"I have to commend what they're doing," she said. "These kids in the department are gifted and talented."

Child killed, mother wounded in Missouri school shooting
The Associated Press
LIBERTY, Mo. — A man waiting outside his son's school shot his fourth-grader to death and wounded his wife after a domestic dispute yesterday, police said.
A suspect police believe to be the boy's father was arrested about an hour later in a liquor store in Kansas City, Mo. about 20 miles to the southwest. The
boy's mother was in surgery at a hospital, police said. They declined to name the hospital.
The shootings happened around 12:30 p.m. when the woman was picking up the child from St. James Catholic School, which serves 322 students in kindergarten through eighth grade. The boy's sister also attended the school, but was not injured. Police were interviewing
the girl to determine if she witnessed the shooting.
Liberty police Lt. Mark Misenhelter said the gunman was the child's father and the husband of the woman, with whom he had argued in the parking lot. Investigators believe a handgun was used in the shooting, although no weapon had been recovered, Misenhelter said.
Kansas City police spokesman
Tony Sanders said the suspect was arrested after police got a tip that the man had said he was trying to get out of town because he had just shot someone.
The school is located near Interstate 35, and the suspect was arrested near an I-35 exit in Kansas City, police said.
Identities and ages of the victims were not immediately available. Police said the boy died at the
scene.
Rebecca Summers, spokeswoman for the Roman Catholic Diocese of Kansas City-St. Joseph, said all students were accounted for and the building was locked downaftertheshooting. OtherLiberty schools were also locked down.
Students from St. James were immediately sent to a nearby movie theater to be picked up by their parents, who emerged from the theater hand-in-hand with their children
Ed Ludwig rushed to the theater to retrieve his 7-year-old granddaughter, a second-grader. He heard about the shooting on television.
"I just rushed up here as fast as I could," he said after walking out of the theater with his granddaughter. "I didn't even shut up the house."

'Romeo and Juliet' law shows Legislators' bias
As this column is read, 20-year-old Matthew Limon sits in his jail cell. He's been confined there since the Kansas District Court handed down its 206-month sentence.
His crime? When Matthew was 18 years old, he performed consensual oral sex on a boy three years younger than him. He will not be released from prison for his transgressions until his mid 30s and will be registered as child molester for life.
The cruel and unusual punishment meted out in this decision is just one of the many reasons the American Civil Liberties Union has filed an Amicus brief, that is a brief file by someone who is not a party to the case, with the Supreme Court on behalf of Matthew. The case is not about a 46-year-old sleeping with an 11-year-old, it's about consensual sex with someone just over the statutory limit. For the "crime" of being one year too old, Limon will spend the next 17 years in prison.
Of equal concern is the imbalanced sentence given to a particular group of people. "If a girl had done this, she'd be out of prison right now," said Chris Hampton, a representative of the ACLU.
In Kansas there are two separate laws dealing with consensual sex between a person age 14 or 15 and an adult. Matthew was charged under Kansas statute 21-3505, which carries with it a maximum sentence of 19 years.
In 1999, however, the state legislators passed statute 21-3522, better known as the "Romeo and Juliet" laws. The statute is
nearly identical to 21-3505 except it is applied only when the parties involved are "members of the opposite sex." The maximum penalty for the crime of sodomy under this law is 15 months.
"The Legislature carved out an exception to the law," said David Miller, Miami county attorney. "This statute is constitutional." Miller's office prosecuted Limon in the district courts.
The ACLU disagrees with Miller's assessment. It contends that the new law violates the 14th amendment's Equal Protection Clause.
The same punishment isn't given for the same crime solely on the basis of who the participants are. Homosexuals are given a prison sentence over 14 times longer because they're homosexuals.
When the legislators singled out "members of the opposite sex" and gave them lighter sentences, they knew exactly what they were doing.
The point was to ensure that any homosexuals caught in the act would stay in prison for a long time to come.
This law needs to change, but given the choice between amending the law to give everyone a lighter sentence and keeping so-called sexual deviants locked away, it's pretty clear what the Legislature would do.
After all, Kansas is a state that still has adult sodomy laws on the books.

Music industry hurts itself MP3 downloads not to blame
GUESTCOMMENTARY
Audrey Snyder's Oct. 28 column "Downloading music is moral equivalent of shoplifting" claimed music sharing is equivalent to stealing from the music industry. Statistics were shown to prove a few points, but I think these figures were used in a narrow sense.
Everyone could look at the hard facts and figures and percentages surrounding the loss of profit by the music industry, supposedly due to the loss of CD sales. But I'd like to point out that correlation does not necessarily mean causation.

Just look at how much the average CD costs. CDs sometimes cost upwards of $18 to $20 each, just for a disc of about
Just because CD sales have decreased since the rise of Napster several years ago, it does not mean that it is only attributed to musicsharing.
Let's assume there has been a decrease in profit for some recording labels. Can these labels blame just music piracy for their problems?
In fact, according to the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), the music industry as a whole has actually increased its profit by an average of $1 billion each year since 1996, the year of Napster's explosion of popularity. It wasn't until 2001 that the CD sales stopped increasing at their high rate and suddenly only increased by approximately 1 percent rather than nearly 2 percent in each preceding year.
12 songs.
Does this sound like a fair price to pay just to listen to something? Perhaps people have turned to the free music-sharing services to prevent having to pay a lot of money just to hear a few specific songs.
Another point of interest is the issue of new bands and their struggle to "make a buck."
A no-name band has to rely on the radio and word of mouth to get their name out to the public. With only these two forms of communication the process of "making a name for yourself" will take an extremely long time. But, what the music-sharing industry provides is a medium of free distribution of music to
If CD sales were lowered then one cannot dispute the much larger difficulty of making money in the music industry. However, that point seems to be the only aspect of the anti-music-sharing argument. What is commonly overlooked is the benefit these file-swapping networks bring.
millions of listeners.
Musicians do not have to pay any fees or worry about advertising, all they have to do is upload their song onto the network and their name is out.
Granted, they will still have to go out and inform others of their music, but placing a song on the Internet for free listening provides an easy and cheap means of getting music to a possible fan base.
The point to be taken in all of this is those who call music and file sharing "stealing" are being both cynical with the issue at hand and ignorant of its benefits.
When a band gets started and they want to make money, they are going to have to make sacrifices and investments to get their name out.
Although music sharing may harm them a bit if they ever become popular, but if nothing else it extends their fan base, free of charge.
When the music industry complains about declining CD sales maybe rather than pointing the finger at someone else, they should look in their bulging wallets and wonder whether there is any way they can alleviate this problem where it is most deeply rooted: the recording industry itself.

Students should have the right to decide area of study
Because of budget cuts, only students in the school of education can take special education classes. This hamps non-education students from expanding their knowledge in the study of special education.
I realize, as a journalism student, that special education classes would be of better use to education majors. Although this is true, one must consider non-education students who planned to pursue a minor or concentration in areas of special education.
Last spring, approximately 225 students, enrolled in sign language classes, were regretfully informed of a new University policy. The School of Education informed all non-education students they
were unable to enroll in any special education classes. Now, the School of Education only offers special education as a minor to students with an elementary education major.
The right of each non-education student to advance in the sign language curriculum was revoked. Additionally, the new policy was implemented during the middle of the semester. This decision should have been made prior to enrollment, because it placed non-education students in a dilemma.
GUEST COMMENTARY
Four sign language classes previously fulfilled the foreign language requirement for journalism students. Only having one class completed, and being restricted from taking the following three, put several students back to the beginning, at step one after the policy was enforced.
Christy Hass
opinion@kansan.com
Because of the policy, sign language classes are no longer considered as credits for requirements, but rather electives. Students enrolled in the classes considered dropping them for little or no refund.
The lack of funding is the main reason
behind this problem. Sally Roberts, assistant professor of special education, said, "due to the lack of funding for non-education students, the school has emphasized a focus on those pursuing professional careers in special education."
This policy is unfair, and although there is a lack of funding, the state budget cuts shouldn't directly affect the classes we can or cannot take. It is a necessity that all KU students receive a fair education, and the choice to decide which area of study or classes they would like to pursue.
Unfortunately, this is only the beginning. Come Jan 1, there could be another set of budget cuts, and the chances of our choices being limited again is very high. Now one must be careful they can actually
enroll in the classes of their choice
The amount of money allotted to each school by the University should be distributed appropriately, but should never conflict with students' abilities to choose their education. The University needs to focus on enhancing the variety of studies that are available to all students.
So, next time you are looking at the timetable, trying to decide which class suits your personality, make sure you are able to participate in that area of study. Whether it is yoga, human sexuality, or even sign language, all KU students should have the right to choose the class of their choice.

Sunday liquorsales are in question
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Kan — Voters in this border city have said "yes" to allowing Sunday sales at liquor stores, even though state law technically still saws "no."
Officials of the local government think they can make a strong argument that technically, the state law has long been construed incorrectly.
For years, Kansas legislators have rejected measures that would repeal the state's ban on sales of packaged beer, wine and liquor on Sundays. And for just as long, many retailers have cheated at the ban, especially in communities bordering states that allow Sunday sales.
Commissioners of the Unified Government of Wyandotte County and Kansas City, Kan., decided in August to ask voters whether Sunday sales should be
allowed at liquor stores. By a 60 percent to 40 percent margin, voters on Tuesday approved the measure.
In Edwardsville, also located in Wyandotte County, the City Council in August unanimously approved a charter ordinance allowing its one liquor store to open on Sunday.
Those actions put the two cities on a collision course with the state Department of Revenue's Alcoholic Beverage Control Division. Officials of the division have said they did not believe cities could exempt themselves from the statewide ban.
The ban is a provision of the state Liquor Control Act, adopted in 1949 after Kansas abandoned prohibition.
Now, in light of Tuesday's vote, the division is consulting with the attorney general's office on the issue.
"We will respond" to the election, said Lisa Kaspar, a spokeswoman for the Department of Revenue. "We just want to make sure we're in line with the direction they (the attorney general's office) want to take."
Unified Government officials' argument stems from a provision of the Kansas Constitution allowing cities to exempt themselves from certain statutes, such as those that do not apply uniformly to all cities.
Because the Liquor Control Act contains some statutes that do not apply to all cities, the Unified Government officials contend, cities can exempt themselves from the act, including the ban on Sunday sales.
Spokesman Don Denney said the Unified Government anticipated that the state would take some kind of action against the measure.
"However, we ... are confident that we will be able to follow through with the voters' wishes in the end," Denney said. "We don't know how long that's going to take."
The association that lobbies on behalf of the state's liquor stores has not embraced the city's initiative.
That is because selective observance of the Liquor Control Act's provisions by local governments would create problems for liquor store owners, said Amy Campbell, executive director of the Kansas Association of Beverage Retailers.
However, she said, the association would not necessarily oppose Sunday liquor sales. The association opposed the latest legislative attempt to lift the ban only because it would have applied only to convenience and grocery stores, not liquor stores.
Feds drop complaint against sniper supsect
The Associated Press
FAIRFAX, Va. — With another set of state indictments returned against the sniper suspects, officials dismissed a federal criminal complaint yesterday against John Muhammad.
A statement by federal prosecutors in Greenbelt, Md., didn't make clear why they took the action, including whether that means they were deferring to state prosecutors.
A Justice Department official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the move clears the way for a possible federal indictment to supersede the criminal complaint or the possible transfer of Muhammad and John Lee Malvo to state authorities for trial on murder charges.
The official would not confirm whether either possibility was
imminent but said an announcement on the developments was expected later yesterday.
Meanwhile, Capt. Priscilla Doggett, a spokeswoman for the Maryland state prison system, said Muhammad and Malvow were taken from a Baltimore prison yesterday to court. She did not know where they had been taken or why.
Calls to Muhammad's attorney, James Wyda, weren't immediately returned.
The order dismissing the federal counts against Muhammad did not specify where U.S. marshals were to take him. The original complaint listed 20 firearms, extortion and interstate commerce counts against Muhammad. Charges pending against Malvo, 17, have not been made public because of his age.
Group urges shoppers to avoid Gap for holidays
The Associated Press
An international student group started a campaign that urges shoppers to avoid Gap clothing stores this holiday season by placing ads yesterday in newspapers at several leading universities.
The United Students Against Swatshops said it is acting in response to anti-union activity at factories manufacturing Gap products in El Salvador and South Africa.
Ben McKean, the group's spokesman, said Gap suppliers in those two countries have used physical harassment, termination and blacklisting to impede organizing efforts.
He called the group's action a
two-month "holiday campaign" meant to convey a message from the foreign factory workers to the American public. McKean said the effort is not a boycott, which he characterized as a movement that continues indefinitely.
A Gap spokeswoman declined comment, referring to a section of the company Web site on "ethical sourcing," where the retailer pledges to promote fair treatment for workers by the vendors who make Gap clothing.
The organization will assess the effectiveness of the campaign early in the new year to determine if it will continue, McKean said.
"All of us at Gap Inc. want factory workers to be treated with dignity and respect," a statement on the site says.
Army inquiry cites separation stress, marital problems
The Associated Press
FORT BRAGG, N.C. Five killings this summer involving couples at Fort Bragg were probably due to existing marital problems and the stress of separation while soldiers are away on duty, Army investigators said yesterday.
The conclusions were in the summary of a report from a 19-member team, including mental and physical health workers and military clergy, who visited the base in August and September.
The investigators also said military culture discourages soldiers and their families from seeking help when domestic problems can potentially be resolved.
The team also said the anti-malaria drug Lariam, given to troops sent overseas, was unlikely to have been at fault.
Side effects of the drug, also known as mefloquine, have been known to include psychotic episodes.
Two of the men committed suicide and the other two are charged with murder.
Authorities say four Fort Bragg soldiers killed their wives in June and July.
In a fifth case, a woman is charged with killing her husband, a Special Forces major.
Three of those cases involved Special Operations soldiers who had served in Afghanistan.
military leaders, doctors, leaders of family support groups, military and civilian law enforcement, and civilian public health officials.
They also conducted focus groups with soldiers, spouses and other people on the post.
The report found family support groups were inconsistent in the help they provided and the Army's program for soldiers returning from deployment also varied from unit to unit.
The full report was to be released late yesterday.
Soldiers from Fort Bragg, the headquarters of the 82nd Airborne Division and the Army's John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Center and School, have figured prominently in ground operations in Afghanistan.
Investigators interviewed
About 45,000 soldiers are stationed at Fort Bragg and about 5,000 families live on base. Another 21,000 military families live in nearby communities.
Local police have said the couples involved in each of the killings had a history of marital problems.
After the killings, the military announced that soldiers will be screened for psychological problems before they leave Afghanistan.
Commanders will be ordered to watch out for symptoms of depression and anxiety among their troops.
Officials also are developing an intervention policy to protect spouses from domestic violence.

ests in 2001 and intended to phase that amount out by 2004.
But that hasn't discouraged the Environs.
The Kansan reported in October that the Environs had mounted a semester-long campaign to stop the state of Kansas from renewing its contract with Boise for printing and office supplies. The University of Kansas is bound to the contract, which was signed in 1999.
The University buys approximately 10,000 cases of paper per year from Boise at a cost of $250,000.The Environs hope the University will switch to recycled-content paper.
"If students look the other way and don't care, then there's no one else. Students are in a unique position to hold principles over profit," Shrum said.
The group encouraged students to sign a petition declaring their opposition to Boise's policy on the environment.
Maggie Beedles, Lawrence senior, who dressed as the tree for the stunt, said she thought the dramatization was a success.
"By being noisy we've gotten a lot of people to ask why we're opposed to Boise," Beedles said.
Some students didn't see it that way.
"It was kind of dumb," said Christina DiGiacomo, Apple Valley, Minn., senior and Kansan columnist. "It didn't make that much of a statement."
Nick Kroeker, Overland Park senior, was confused about the event's message.
"Interesting approach, I'l put it that way," he said.

home after graduating, Baker said.
"Build up enough of a credit history that when you pull a credit report on you, you will have a high enough score that you can get the lowest preferred rate for a home loan at the time," Baker said.
A good example of the lowest preferred rate is the 0.0 percent financing commercials for cars, Baker said. Only people with the best credit qualify for the best financing.
The same rule applies for home buyers. Waiting to develop good credit and fall into the lowest preferred-rate category is the best option for potential homeowners. Baker said.
The bank looks at the last two years of applicants' credit history when considering what rate
qualified buyers will receive. Despite their pitfalls, credit cards are a good way to build credit history during those two years.
"It's not the card that's bad, it's how it's used," Baker said.
Baker said charging any amount on a card, no matter how small, and paying it off each month was a good way to show a bank that the applicant would make payments on a home. As a result, the bank will give the applicant a lower interest rate, he said.
Students may benefit from waiting to have steady employment for at least a year before financing a home.
"If you had a good paying job and you left for three months to go to Jamaica to party, you probably wouldn't get approved when you came back," Baker said.
Some students don't have plans on hurrying into buying a home until becoming established in a career.
"If I had to put a time frame on it, I'd probably say it would be about five years after 1 graduated," said Alexis Brewer, Prairie Village senior.
The best way to show banks responsibility is having a good balance between income and debt. Using 25 percent to 33 percent of each month's income to pay off debts is an ideal balance, Baker said.
Buying a home when factors drive up interest rates typically locks the buyer into the rate for three to five years, Baker said. This means that people who rush into buying a home may pay 10 percent on the loan for five years.
"Tough it out for another 12 months," Baker said. Those who spend a year in an apartment or another living situation will save money and build up their credit can typically save first-time buyers $2,500 to $3,500 in the first year alone, Baker said.
Another factor for students to consider is the housing market they look to buy in after graduation.
Baker said Lawrence was a good market to invest in when buying a home because home resale prices have gone up 5 to 7 percent in the last 10 years.
Buying a house paid off for Kelly Bach, Grand Forks, N.D., graduate student.
Bach said her first house in Lawrence went up in value, enabling her to buy a bigger home now that she has two children.
"I think it's a great idea to move into a house because rent prices are very expensive as well." Bach said. "It's a very good investment if you can do it."
But increases in home values prevent many prospective first-time buyers from entering the market, said Rebecca Buford, associate director of Tenants to Homeowners, Inc. Tenants to
Homeowners helps people plan for their first houses and also offers programs to help lower income buyers purchase a home.
"It's a ridiculously priced housing market," Buford said. She said the average price for a home with four bedrooms and two garages was higher in Lawrence than anywhere else in Kansas.
Buford said high demand for houses resulted from people living in Lawrence and commuting to jobs in Kansas City and Topeka.
Another factor is landlords who aren't willing to part with properties, decreasing the supply of available houses.
"Generally you can make more money renting than selling." Buford said. "Landlords don't have to put as much money into them and can still make quite a bit."

Often, the source of an eating disorder is the desire to be the "best" anorexic or bulimic, he said.
Bloch moved his practice to Lawrence two years ago from Hermosa Beach, Calif. He said he was surprised to find that eating disorders were just as prevalent in the Midwest as they were in southern California, where people glorify the importance of image.
"Anywhere there is a college campus, there is going to be a problem with eating disorders," he said.
According to the Support, Concern and Resources for Eating Disorders Web site,
www.eating-disorder.org between 4.5 and 18 percent of women and 0.4 percent of men have a history of bulimia by their first year of college, and 1 percent of females ages 12 to 18 have anorexia.
Bloch said many of his patients attended the University of Kansas, and several of them were obsessed with checking updates on pro-ana and pro-mia sites. He declined to give numbers.
Ann Chapman, coordinator of nutrition services at Watkins Memorial Health Center and a registered dietitian, said the University needed to do its part to fight destructive information online.
Despite the Internet's negative influences, Griffen said it was the best place for an intimidated anorexic or bulimic to recover. Appalled at the options available, in 1999 she and Bloch created a safe-haven for struggleg that praised success stories and, occasionally, scolded those who had wavered.

'Sea of red'still runs deep
By John Domoney
jdomoney@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
When the Kansas football team takes the field for tomorrow's 12:30 p.m. kickoff, chances are Nebraska will record its NCAA-record 254th consecutive sellout at Memorial Stadium in Lincoln, Neb.
Kansas senior defensive back Matt Jordan said he had many fond memories of playing in Lincoln's Memorial Stadium.
Almost 80,000 fans wearing red will attend the game to see their beloved Cornhuskers attempt to add to their 33-game consecutive win streak against the Jayhawks.
"The thing that comes to mind is their fans," Jordan said. "They just want to see a good football game no matter who you are. I remember a couple of times we were coming out of the tunnel, and they gave us tips on how to beat Nebraska."
When asked about what the tips would be this time around, Jordan said they would be centered around stopping the Cornhuskers' running game.
Even with a 6-4 record, the option offense is still alive and well for Nebraska behind the running of quarterback Jammal Lord and running back Dahrran Diedrick.
Through ten games, Nebraska is leading the Big 12 Conference and is ranked third in the nation averaging 283.2 rushing yards per game.
Stack those averages up against a Kansas defense that is last in the Big 12, allowing 257.1 rushing yards per game, and the Jayhawk defenders know they are facing a tough challenge.
"They're a team that really wants to get a victory and get back on the winning track."
"We've struggled a little stopping the
Mark Mangino Kansas football coach
run," Jordan said. "We've just got to focus on the little things. Anything can happen and that's why they play the game."
Nebraska has found this out so far this season. There has been discussion in the state of Nebraska about the job security of coach Frank Solich after the slow start by Nebraska's usual high standards.
Kansas coach Mark Mangino said he did not look differently at Nebraska, regardless of their record to this point.
"They're going to play at home and they're a team that really wants to get a victory and get back on the winning track." he said of Nebraska.
Mangino also said his team needed to avoid allowing a few bad plays ruin their poise and that the Jayhawks needed to enjoy their experience.
"The Oklahoma kids, when they go into an opposing stadium and everybody's booing and yelling at them, they feed off that," Mangino said. "Whether you're playing at home or on the road. When you're on the field, our kids ought to feed off of it."

Lord to test Kansas rush defense
By Doyle Murphy

Kansan sportswriter
They still wear red, their fans still travel to every game and they still receive national attention.
But the Nebraska Cornhuskers don't look like themselves this season. Their four losses this season already guarantee their worst record since they went 9-4 in 1998. They dropped out of the national polls early this season for the first time in 348 weeks. And they lost at home for the first time in 26 games, when Texas beat them 27-24 Saturday.
Is this still the same Nebraska?
Kansas coach Mark Mangino said it was.
"Nebraska is Nebraska," Mangino told reporters. "I don't care what their record says, Nebraska is always Nebraska. They're good, they're fast, they're strong, they've got tremendous athletes, they're well coached and they will be ready."
Mangino has reason to respect the Cornhuskers. Junior quarterback Jammal Lord rushed for the most rushing yards by a quarterback in Nebraska history with 234 on Saturday against Texas. His 332 yards of total offense also ranked third in the school record books. And he is one piece of the second-best rushing offense in the nation.
That could mean big trouble for a Kansas run defense ranked last in the Big 12 Conference.
"I don't care what their record says. Nebraska is always Nebraska."

Linebacker Kevin Kane may be part of the solution. Kane, a true freshman, was named defensive player of the week after recording six tackles against Kansas State.
Kane also brings a defection to the Kansas fan base. His father John is a Nebraska alum and played for the Cornhuskers from 1972-77, earning a letter in 1975.
"Deep down he's a 'Husker.' Kane told reporters. "But he'll be on the
Kansas sidelines Saturday."
Kane has been to Lincoln before, but he said tomorrow would be his first time on the field at Memorial Stadium. The elder Kane told his son the run through the tunnel onto the field is something to look forward to.
"He says I'll enjoy it," Kane said. "He said it's an experience I never forget."
Memorable or not, the defense's senior leader, linebacker Greg Cole, said the Jayhawks had a job to do. He said the pressure was on Nebraska, and the Kansas players would need to act like it.
"We don't have anything to lose," Cole told reporters. "And that's the mentality we have to approach it with."

Coming off of a strong showing two weeks ago, the Kansas bowling team is ready to keep the ball rolling on its season.
This weekend, the men's and women's squads will travel to Lake Zurich, Ill., to compete in the Brunswick Zone - Great Lakes tournament.
In their last competitive trip to the lanes, at the Mid-States tournament in Springfield, Mo., the men placed fifth in an 18-team field while the women finished eighth out of 12 teams.

Despite a hard-fought and hardplayed game, the Kansas women's soccer team was eliminated from the Big 12 Conference tournament last night, losing to the Nebraska Cornhuskers 2-1.
Kansas came out firing and set the pace of the game early as they mustered some early scoring opportunities However they could not convert on any of those chances.
Nebraska opened the scoring as it
scored in the 31st minute of the game. Christine Latham recorded her 11th goal of the season as she headed the ball inside the far post off a free kick.
Meghan Miller
After the goal, Nebraska continued to put pressure on sophomore goaltender Meghan Miller for the remainder of the first half. Miller sustained a minor injury with seven minutes remaining in the half.
"Meghan was just a little beat up tonight," coach Mark Francis said. "She was disappointed with the first goal she let go in but she bounced back nicely and played hard like she has done all season."
Early in the second half, Kansas started to dominate at the offensive end of the field but failed to capitalize again.
"We dominated the ball for most of the game," Francis said. "We created chances for ourselves but just could not finish them."
Nebraska scored their second goal of the game after Kansas had provided some more pressure. Lindsey Ingram headed the ball under the cross bar from 10 yards out.
Eight minutes later at the 68-minute mark, freshman Caroline Smith, who was playing her first game in five matches after suffering a knee injury, scored her 12th goal of the season. Smith said she felt fine in her much-anticipated return.
"My knee feels pretty good," she said.
"Once you get the adrenaline going it is all right I was not too worried about it."
Despite a final frenzy, in which Kansas got two more shots on goal in the
final minute of the game, Nebraska withstood the pressure and held on in a game that saw Kansas outshoot the Cornhuskers 23-13.
"I am very proud of the kids and the amount of effort they gave tonight," Francis said. "We dominated the stats but sometimes that is just not enough."
With the loss Kansas fell to 11-7-2 as it has dropped its last four games. The Jayhawks will now wait to see if they are selected for the NCAA tournament, which is an outside chance.
Coming into the tournament, Francis felt his team needed to reach the tournament finals to be selected into the NCAA tournament.
Despite the loss, the players and coaches are choosing to look at the positives.
"We left absolutely everything we had on the field tonight," Smith said. "It definitely gives us a lot of incentive for next season and the seasons to come. This team gave us the opportunity to play in some very big games and I think we will continue to get better and better every year."

SPORTS COMMENTARY

'Hawks' success depends on bench
If you see Mark Cairns' face on television or his name in print with regularity, the Jayhawks will surely be in NCAA Tournament trouble.
In March, there will be an elementary way to decipher whether the Kansas basketball team will be poised for a Final Four run or for a second- or third-round exit. As the season progresses, keep your eyes peeled. Scan newspapers. Watch reports and highlights on television.
If Cairns can remain anonymous—as it's easily assumed none of you know who he is—the Jayhawks should be well on their way to New Orleans.
So who's this Cairns fella, you ask? He's Kansas' glue. His job is to keep the Jayhawk men's basketball team together — literally. He's the team's trainer. He has been for 17 years. He hopes this season will be full of inactivity. Because, as he knows best, things aren't going so well when he's busy. Cairns is content taping ankles and treating bumps and bruises, instead of diagnosing catastrophic injuries
"It's those alphabet injuries, like ACL and MCL, that we want to stay away from," Cairns said. "I'm one of the few guys that the AD and the chancellor don't mind paying for sitting on my butt. Because I'm only really busy when players are injured."
The only obstacle between Kansas and a date with the French Quarter will be revealed in March by how active Cairns was during the season. Because, if this Kansas team avoids injury, a Final four trip is expected.
Granted, Monday's blowout of the EA Sports All-Stars was an exhibition, but it was a performance that had fans talking all over Lawrence. The buzz swirled around the ho-hum success of the Jayhawk bench.
The bench — juniors Bryant Nash and Jeff Graves, sophomore Michael Lee and freshmen Jeff Hawkins and Moulaye Niang — dispelled many of the myths that Kansas' bench players could not handle their jobs as bench players.
Nash displayed the most improvement, erasing the memories of him running around the court like a chicken with its head cut off the last two seasons. He demanded the ball, swished three-pointers and showed the best Kansas leaping ability since a healthy Kenny Gregory.
Point is, Kansas has one of the top three starting lineups in the nation, along with Arizona and Oklahoma. The five — seniors Kirk Hinrich and Nick Collison and sophomores Aaron Miles, Keith Langford and Wayne Simien — are savvy veterans and contain the experience to grind through the Kansas schedule and each average at least 30 minutes a game.
That leaves, collectively, 50 minutes a game for the bench to fill. Between Nash, Hawkins and Graves, that should and will be easily comprehendible. Hawkins is quick, has a knack for being around the ball and can contribute at both guard positions.
Graves, once he gets in tip-top shape, will shed his distinction as a potential overweight bust by banging his body around. Kansas has not had a player recently with the hard-nosed, bad-boy attitude Graves exhibited on the court, and that intensity should give the Jayhawks a boost.
So, the experts are wrong. Our bench will not be a problem. Kansas will make a run to the Final Four.
That is, unless Mark Cairns becomes a household fixture.

Wolverines men's basketball reprimanded by university

ANN ARBOR, Mich. Michigan punished its men's basketball program yesterday, imposing a postseason ban for 2003 and forfeiting all victories from six seasons because of a scandal involving former athletics booster, Ed Martin.
The Associated Press
The school announced the penalties in a letter to the NCAA yesterday. By imposing the sanctions, Michigan hopes to head off more severe action by the NCAA.
Michigan also will remove four banners from Crisler Arena; for the 1992 and 1993 Final Fours, the 1997 National Invitation Tournament title and the 1998 Big Ten tournament title.
The Wolverines won't be able to participate in the NCAA tournament or the NIT after the upcoming season. The team went 11-18 last season.
The scandal centers on Martin, who pleaded guilty in May to conspiracy to launder money. Martin has said he took gambling money, combined it with other funds and lent it to former Michigan star Chris Webber and other players, as well as their families.
Michigan also said it would return to the NCAA $450,000 — money it earned for appearing in the postseason during those six seasons.
"There is no excuse for what happened. It was wrong—plain and simple," university president Mary Sue Coleman said. "This is a day of great shame."
The university received a formal letter of inquiry from the NCAA on Oct.19.
"We have worked closely with NCAA at every stage," said Michigan athletic director Bill Martin. "We will now ask to get on the schedule for a hearing with the infractions committee as soon as possible. We hope it will be very soon."
The NCAA does not comment on pending investigations, spokesman Wally Renfro said.
The scandal originated in the "Fab Five" era, when Webber and four other freshmen made the program into a national sensation. With their baggy shorts and black socks, Webber and future NBA players Juwan Howard and Jalen Rose led the Wolverines to
Webber, along with his father, Mayce Webber Jr., and aunt, Charlene Johnson, are charged with lying to a grand jury and obstructing justice in Martin's case. They have pleaded innocent, and their trials are not expected to begin until next year.
consecutive NCAA finals in 1992 and 1993.
Martin said he gave Webber and his family $280,000 in cash and gifts while the player was in high school and college. Webber has denied receiving any money, accusing Martin of "preying" on the naivete of him and other youngsters.
Martin also said he paid $160,000 to Robert Traylor, who plays for the New Orleans Hornets; $105,000 to Maurice Taylor, who plays for the Houston Rockets; and $71,000 to Louis Bullock, who plays for a professional team in Spain. The four were never on the same team together, but the seasons in which they played have been forfeited: Webber (1991-93), Taylor (1995-97), Traylor (1996-98) and Bullock (1996-99).
Martin's name first surfaced after Taylor lost control of his car on Feb. 17, 1996. Taylor was returning from a party in Detroit with four teammates who were entertaining Mateen Cleaves on his official recruiting visit. When Michigan found out that the recruiting visit included a visit to Martin's house, the school began to investigate his affairs with the basketball program.
Cleaves later signed with Michigan State and led that team to the 2000 NCAA title.
The highly publicized crash led to the first of three investigations and the firing of head coach Steve Fisher, casting a cloud that has hovered over the Michigan program ever since.
Second-year coach Tommy Amaker has tried to turn around the program, despite the possibility of NCAA sanctions.
Amaker signed five freshmen — including two of the best prospects in the country — for this season and also has received commitments from three high school seniors for next year, including two marquee players: shooting guard Dion Harris of Detroit and center Courtney Sims of Boston.

Yeah, this is for the Kansas sports brief. Alright, I'll keep this brief. We have coach Mangino, we gave him a chance, right? I think we should just be like the band Korn and hire a fan for the job. Hey, you never know, we just might win a game.

2 Nebraska athletes prepare for court
His trial was set in Lancaster County Court for Dec. 20.
The misdemeanor charge carries a possible penalty of up to a $500 fine and six months in jail.
LINCOLN, Neb. — Nebraska quarter back Jammal Lord pleaded innocent yesterday to disturbing the peace.
Lord was cited in October for disturbing the peace after Lincoln police were called to his apartment around 3 a.m. on a Sunday morning.
Also charged with disturbing the peace and failure to obey a police order was Nebraska volleyball and basketball player Greichaly Cepero, who was at Lord's apartment when police were called.
Cepero is scheduled to appear in court Wednesday for her arraignment.
Cepero sat out one volleyball game as punishment. Lord was not benched, but coach Frank Solich said Lord had been given some guidelines for behavior and will have to attend an alcohol support group.
The tickets were issued hours after Lord led Nebraska to a 24-13 win over Missouri and Cepero and the Huskers beat Iowa State 3-0.
Both players, who are 21, spent the rest of the night in a detoxification center, but were not cited with any alcohol related offenses.

Fencing faces first competition this weekend in round-robin
By Steve Vockrodt
svockrodt@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
The KU fencing club team will face its first competition of the season this weekend.
Squads from Johnson County Community College and club teams from Wichita, Salina and Kansas City will compete tomorrow from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. in Robinson Gym at room 215. This year's KU squad will compete as the first organized fencing club team under the tutelage of first year coach Brian McDow. West Des Moines, Iowa, senior.
"We are doing a good job, we've got a lot of strong fencers," McDow said.
Brothers Chris and Craig Anderson, Lake Bea, Ill., freshmen, are expected to lead the team to a top finish after the team's intrasquad competition.
The tournament format begins with several pools of five to seven competitors in round-robin play. Top finishers in the pools advance to a single-elimination bracket to determine a champion.
"This is a novice tournament, we want to make sure everyone gets experience,"
McDow said.
The sport of fencing has seen sizable growth in the last ten years. The United States Fencing Association, the nation's governing fencing body, saw its membership expand from approximately 1,000 a decade ago to more than 15,000 currently. McDowd said.
Although the sport's popularity has increased in the United States, the International Olympic Committee will consider dropping two of fencing's three classifications for the upcoming Olympics.
McDow begins his fifth year of fencing and fourth year of coaching. Some members of KU's squad come as Johnson County Community College transfers where a fencing class is available, but most get involved by curiosity.
"They tend to just kind of show up," McDow said. "There are some clubs in the Kansas City and Salina area, but it is word of mouth more than anything else."
The team may schedule other upcoming tournaments depending on the results of this weekend's meet.

Players file for free agency
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Roger Clemens filed for free agency yesterday, testing the market while still hoping to re-sign with the New York Yankees.
Clemens, a 40-year-old right-hander, needs seven wins to reach 300 for his career. He was 13-6 with a 4.5 ERA and 192 strikeouts this year, limited to 29 starts because of injuries, and the Yankees don't think any team will offer $10 million or more for a one-year deal.
San Francisco outfielder Tom Goodwin also filed yesterday, raising the free-agent total to 152, with 18 more players potentially eligible to file by Monday's deadline.
Free agents can start talking contract with all teams starting Tuesday.
Seattle designated hitter Edgar Martinez and pitcher Shigetoshi Hasegawa took themselves off the market, agreeing to one-year contracts with the Mariners.
Jim Thome, the best hitter on the free-agent market, toured Philadelphia on yesterday. Thome, who has spent his entire career with Cleveland, walked into Philadelphia's clubhouse and saw a Phillies jersey with his name and No. 25 hanging in one of the lockers.
Phillies general manager Ed Wade said he would offer a contract on Tuesday to Thome.
Boschee's book will sell many copies but Laffy Taffy wrappers are more interesting
This one might work, though it really shouldn't.
Apparently, Jeff Boschee was desperate to find a get-rich-quick scheme.
The former KU hoopster, along with high school economics teacher Mark Horvath, shoves a new book down our throat titled Long Shot: Beating the Odds to Live a Jayhawk Dream. Its format is a bit different than Horvath and Jerod Haase's Floor Burns from about five years ago, but the target is the same: get all those KU basketball-obsessed freaks to buy it as stocking stuffers.
The truth is, I've read more interesting Laffy Taffy wrappers.
Not only are typos scattered throughout, but the book, quite simply, is poorly written.On one page, English 101 Boschee says, "Missouri has the most immature fans." On the next, English 998 Boschee says, "I released the ball and watched it as it softly landed in the net, causing the twine to jump
For those of you who don't want to waste $15 on 187 pages of Jeff Boschee, I can gladly sum this book up for you in one paragraph.
up as if it were cheering."
Huh?
Boschee always wanted to be a Jayhawk. Boschee is a good shooter. Boschee becomes a Jayhawk. Boschee shaves his head. Boschee likes hitting treys. Boschee doesn't want to play in the NBA. Boschee likes being popular. Boschee hates being popular. Boschee farts. Boschee is burnt out. Boschee still always wanted to be a Jayhawk. Chicks dig Boschee. Boschee released the ball and watched it as it softly landed in the net, causing the twine to jump as if it were cheering.
COMMENTARY
Of course, as I went through the book, I found passages that were just too good to keep from the broke college kid with better things to buy, such as beer. Observe:

Geez, Bosch, that's worse than the football team's 2.58 in Spring 2002.
"Dogs are also a great way of meeting girls. Taking the dog with me around campus ... it's a cinch that women will walk up and make some comment."
Trust me, Boschee, you didn't need your dog. With all the dumb groupies who swarm this campus, all you needed was your presence.
"I quickly got to the point. 'Coach, I wanted you to know that I've decided to play at Kansas.' 'Hold on a second, Jeff.'
Coach (Roy Williams) said. I heard the phone being put on something, then in the background there was a loud yell. "WHOOOO YESSSS!" ... it was hilarious."
Classic. How can you not love Roy Williams?
Much of the 187 pages try to take up space. He has a terrible page on what makes a good coach. He wastes ink writing a letter to all of the fans he never got to respond to. Pretty lame.
What really irks me about this book, though, is that it's going to sell copies, as long as alumni and locals stay obsessed with KU basketball and as long as the jersey chasers dilute Mt. Oread. It's really too bad.
I guess you have to give Boschee credit for making a buck off his name. Most of us would've done it, too.
Wood is a Lee's Summit, Mo., senior in journalism.
But why did it have to be so bad?
Royals coach Tom Gamboa accepts 15-year-old's apology
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — Kansas City Royals coach Tom Gamboa said he accepts the apology of a 15-year-old fan who attacked him on the field during a game.
Gamboa said yesterday he would like to see the boy receive probation and community service because he was already held for a month in juvenile detention after the September attack at Comiskey Park.
"I can't see a 15- or 16-year-old kid being thrown down the drain for making a tragic mistake," Gamboa said while testifying at the teen's sentencing hearing.
The boy apologized to Gamboa during the start of the hearing in juvenile court. The hearing is scheduled to resume today.
The boy was released to his
family last month after pleading guilty Oct. 21 to one count of aggravated battery and two counts of mob action in the Sept. 19 attack during a game against the Chicago White Sox. Gamboa was coaching at first base when it occurred.
Ligue has been in custody at Cook County Jail since the attack and on Thursday a judge agreed to reduce his bail to $10,000 from $200,000, said Jerry Lawrence, a spokesman with the Cook County State's Attorney's office.
The boy's father, William Ligue Jr., 35, also was charged. He has pleaded innocent to three felony counts of aggravated battery and one felony count of mob action.
A spokesman for the Cook County Sheriff's Office said Ligue had not posted bond by late afternoon.
Swim team meets Wyoming, SMS

The Kansas swimming and diving team will host its first meet of the year with a triangular versus Wyoming and Southwest Missouri State at 1:30 p.m. Saturday at Robinson Natatorium.
"It's good in the sport of swimming to swim against tough competitors in tough situations," he said. "You cannot get in any more challenging of a situation than when we swim Missouri, at Missouri."
The team lost to Missouri last Friday, 170-126, but, coach Clark Campbell said, the team learned from the loss.
Junior Kristen Johnson agreed.
tough Mizzou was," she said.
Johnson won the 200 breaststroke and placed second in the 100 breaststroke in the dual at Missouri.
Coach Tom Johnson was rebuilding the Wyoming program and was always in the thick of the Mountain West Conference race. Campbell said.
The Bears' swimming program, coached by John Steck, is less than a decade old. Campbell said since it became a team, the Bears contend for a conference title every year. Both teams will challenge KU, Campbell said.
"They are real solid teams, and we are going to have to put together races like we've talked about this week," he said. "They do have potential to knock us off."

British groups to join Hall of Fame
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Three British exports from rock's "new wave" of the late 1970s — The Police, The Clash and Elvis Costello and the Attractions — will join the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame next year.
They'll be inducted along with the Righteous Brothers, blue-eyed soul singers of "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'," and Australian hard rockers AC/DC.
The 18th annual Hall of Fame induction ceremony will be held March 10 in New York and televised later on VH1.
The Police's relatively short career included hits such as "Roxanne" and "Every Breath You Take." Lead singer Sting maintains an active solo career.
The politically charged quartet The Clash broke in as punk rockers and expanded their sound to take in reggae and urban influences. Their biggest radio hit was "Rock the Casbah."
Costello, a prolific genre-hopper with hits such as "Alison", "Pump it Up" and "Veronica," led the tight trio, the Attractions, for more than a decade. He still performs with two of its members keyboardist Steve Nieve and drummer Pete Thomas.
The Righteous Brothers were Southern California crooners Bill Medley and Bobby Hatfield, who
also sang the hits "Unchained Melody" and "(You're My) Soul and Inspiration."
The bone-crunching riffs of Angus and Malcolm Young lead AC/DC, who are still active. The 1980 hit "You Shook Me All Night Long" is a band highlight.
As is often the case with the rock hall, the ceremony has the potential for some tense reunions in tuxedos. Costello feuds with Attractions bassist Bruce Thomas, and both The Police and The Clash had acrimonious breakups.
Earlier this year. Talking Heads re-formed to perform at their rock hall induction after years of bitterness.

coasts, and a total of about 80 teams between men's and women's squads," coach Michael Fine said. "This is going to be our first chance to take a look and see how we compare on a national level."
Freshman Annetta Manthei, who finished 43rd at the Mid-States, is looking not only for individual improvement this weekend, but wants to see her team jump in the standings as well.
"I think our team will do well even though it's a very young team, but I think we're prepared." Manthei said. "I would hope that we're in the top half if not higher. I don't think I'll so much as make the all-tournament team because I've had a wrist injury, but I think I'll do OK."
For the men, the season's first tournament saw them place in the top third of the field, and expectations are high heading into this weekend.
"I hope we can improve on our fifth-place finish at the first tournament, and we took sixth at this upcoming tournament last year, so we're looking for a win, definitely top-three minimum," senior Jason Elliott, Kansan designer, said. "I made all-tournament team the first tournament so I'd like to repeat that, but just do whatever I have to help the team win."
Fine said what he liked best about this year's team is that although there is no definition of a particular star, everyone is working toward a common goal.
"We're not a team that you can point to and say that one person is the leader of the team." Fine said. "I have great expectations from everyone that travels, and confidence in everyone that travels that they have the ability to rise to the occasion."

Contestants 'kick'sportswriter
Instead of my usual "Kick the Kansan" column, I am going to tell you a story.
Once upon a time, about 10 weeks ago, there was a cocky young sportswriter. When approached with an idea of a football game predating contest, visions of perfect records, sage advice, fame and maybe even fortune filled his mind.
These delusions lived on, even after the majority of the few contestants proved better at the task than he.
"Lucky (contestants)," he said to himself. "Wait't till next week."
Week two passed — week three, week four — and the pattern continued.
The sportswriter was reduced to defenses such as, "I'm still taller."
The contestants were less than impressed.
"That took me about five seconds," one student told him, pointing to an entry form. To prove his point, the student beat him another two times and boasted the free Mojo's food had treated him well.
Another contestant offered tips to the sportswriter.
"What an insult," thought the sportswriter "These sons-of-(their
parents) don't respect my football knowledge."
The weeks rolled on. Girls beat him. Guysbeathim. It didn'tmatter.
The panelists became regulars. "Sports guys" told him he sucked at parties.
"Now, here are some real losers," the sportswriter chuckled.
The only solace he took was a deranged fascination with choosing teams whose names encompassed the four directions and used punctuation marks usually reserved for cuss words in comic strips.
They say that the sportswriter is still out there, making a few picks and a thousand excuses.
Whew, good thing this is just a fairy tale.

"The attitude is light-years ahead than the day I sat up here last December," Mangino said. "We're much more detailed in every facet of our program, and our kids give better effort than they ever have. We got a two game season, and we're going to go after it, and we're going to play hard."

Major league managers Scioscia, La Russa honored after adversity
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES—Anaheim Angels manager Mike Scioscia's job was reportedly in jeopardy last April following the team's worst start in its 42-season history.
Now, in the wake of the Angels' first World Series triumph, Scioscia is the AL Manager of the Year.
"It's very flattering to even be considered for awards like this," he said on a conference call Wednesday. "It's an award that reflects the 25 tough guys we have in our clubhouse."
In balloting conducted before the start of the postseason, Scios-
cia received 17 first-place votes, 10 seconds and one third for 116 points from a panel of the Baseball Writers' Association of America.
Art Howe, who left Oakland after the season to become manager of the New York Mets, was second with 74 points, followed by Minnesota's Ron Gardenhire (59), who in his first season as manager led the Twins to the AL Central title and their first playoff berth since 1991.
St. Louis Cardinals manager Tony La Russa, who had to overcome tragedies that struck his team off the field, won his record fourth Manager of the Year award — his first in the NL.
The Cardinals won the NL Central title during a season in which they were traumatized by the deaths of pitcher Darryl Kile and longtime broadcaster Jack Buck.
"Nothing will describe how sad and how deeply affected everyone was with Darryl, Jack," La Russa said. "The personal side was really, really rough. I don't know how anybody would describe it. I think this award is recognition our club, our organization, just didn't give into it."
La Russa, who earned the AL award with Chicago in 1983 and with Oakland in 1988 and 1992, joined Bobby Cox as the only managers to win the award in
both leagues.
La Russa received 22 first-place votes, six second-place votes and one third for 129 points. Cox, who led Atlanta to its 11th consecutive division title, was next with 93 points, followed by Montreal's Frank Robinson (23).
In his third season as manager of the Angels, Scioscia turned around a team that lost 19 of its last 21 games last year to finish 75-87 — 41 games behind AL West-champion Seattle.
The Angels overcame a 6-14 start to go 99-65 this year, finishing four games behind Oakland but winning the AL wild card. They beat the Yankees and Twins
in the league playoffs and the Giants in a memorable sevengame World Series.
"I think it's an outstanding honor, well-deserved." Angels pitching coach Bud Black said of Scioscia's award. "He's a standup, solid, honest guy, Mike brought such stabilization to how we proceeded as a team the last three years. What you've seen is the fruits of his beliefs."
Sciosia spoke with reporters while on a field trip with daughter Taylor's fifth-grade class at a botanical garden in nearby Thousand Oaks.
Hesaid he never thought about the possibility of being fired.
"It wasn't an issue," he said. "I
think we've been moving in the right direction with the exception of the tough September in 2001 and the horrendous start of 2002. We always felt we could do it. I think that carried us through the rough spots.
"We knew when we got guys back in the lineup we were going to show everyone the kind of club we had and we were certainly able to do that. Patience was the only course of action."
Scioscia said his life hasn't changed with all the success.
"I've finally been able to unwind and sit back and enjoy it," he said. "I think as we move forward in the winter, I'll be able to enjoy it more."

Top job requires top dollar
Hefty campaign costs, meager pay add up for student body presidents
By Caleb Nothweir

Students who might want to pursue the office of student body president should first make sure their bank accounts can handle it.
Because of the large costs candidates incur during campaigns and the small salaries presidents receive while in
For his $480 monthly stipend, current Student Body President Jonathan Ng works an average of 40 hours per week. His paycheck breaks down to $3 per hour.
office, the position is not within the budgets of all KU students, past presidents say. Recent students who have shouldered the costs of the presidency said they were able to do so with financial help from parents or scholarships.
"You can't be student body president and lead a regular college life," Ng said.
Ng said his job hadn't allowed him to have a part-time job or take a full class load. He also said he spent 10 hours a day on campus, attending between 20 and 24
meetings per week.
University regulations require the student body president, and any other student-salary position, to be enrolled in six credit hours. Ng is enrolled in 12 in order to maintain his merit-based scholarship.
Justin Mills, 2001-02 student body president, made the same salary as Ng and said students who paid for their own education wouldn't be able to take the position.
"For the amount of work, it doesn't cover the bills," Mills said.
Mills, a first-year medical school student, said a pay raise would open the position to more students. Mills said he was able to take on the position because
his parents had set up a college fund for him in advance.
Kevin Yoder, student body president during the 1998-99 school year, was an exception to most presidents, working 10 to 15 hours at his part-time job at Pizza Hut during his term. But Yoder's time in office came at the expense of other college activities.
"It became my life," Yoder said. "Classes and other activities were secondary."
Yoder said he was able to balance his presidency and paying for school with the help of student loans.

Students design fun for kids
Day with reStart Inc. included stringing, sewing and painting
Industrial design student Dave Best, Dallas senior, works with 4-year-old Ebony as they brush autumn colors on leaves Saturday afternoon at reStart, Inc. Best, an officer of KJ's chapter of the Industrial Design Society of America, has coordinated a project with his fellow peers to volunteer at the shelter for homeless and low-income families at reStart for the past two years.

Industrial design students took a break on Saturday afternoon from designing products to teach children art skills.
Eleven students volunteered an afternoon of their time to help children who are residents of reStart, Inc., a shelter for homeless and low-income families in Kansas City, Mo.
The group sewed braided rugs, strung beaded necklaces and painted wooden leaves with fall colors.
"I like strawberry blood. I want to paint mine with that," said 5-year-old Vincent, a resident at reStart, referring to a color he created Saturday afternoon by mixing orange and red. Vincent then began talking about Halloween as he used his new color to decorate a wooden leaf.
Helping Vincent was Jason Schwartz, Wheeling, Ill., graduate student. While painting his fall leaf, Vincent asked Schwartz what grade he was in.
"I guess I'm in about the 18th grade by now," Schwartz replied after Vincent boasted he was in the 1st, 5th and 8th grade all at the same time.
The most challenging part of the experience was getting into the mind set of the children, Schwartz said.
"When I was growing up, if I wanted to do an art project I did it at my house," he said. "These children don't have that chance. It's something none of us have had to experience."
Both the residents of the shelter and
the students volunteering benefited from the experience, said Linda Kernitzer, a lecturer in the School of Design who facilitated the volunteer project.
"It's really great," she said. "You can just feel the energy floating around in there."

Lack of riders could cut trial bus route near JRP

Hate Out celebrates diversity
By Katie Nelson

Kansan staff writer
It's the second year that the Office of Multicultural Affairs, the Multicultural Resource Center and other campus organizations are coordinating a week-long celebration of diversity: Hate Out Week.
Hate Out Week 2002 events include:
Today:
"There's so much diversity on our campus, but at the same time there is so much hatred out there that we need to be aware of," said Katie Dilks, Ames, Iowa, senior and coordinator of the Diversity Peer Education Team, one of the organizations sponsoring Hate Out Week. "If we ignore it, that hate, it won't go away. Instead we need to confront it and learn from each other."
Jon Hockman, a Washington, D.C.-based motivational speaker will talk about diversity and the benefits of learning from differences at 7:30 p.m. at the Kansas Room in the Kansas Union.
The Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center will sponsor a Body Image Discussion at 12:30 p.m. in the MRC classroom. Corrina Beck, a coordinator for the Resource Center is leading the talk.
"I think that bias and stereotypes are a huge part of the world in which we live," Hockman said. "If we realize the true positive power of diversity, using that we can figure out how to build healthier, stronger, more inclusive communities." Hockman owns a company called Dare, Dream, Do that coordinates motivational speaking engagements, plans conferences and facilitates meetings and retreats.
- Buttons, cups and fliers about upcoming Multicultural Resource Center activities will be available at information tables on Wescoe Beach, the Kansas Union and Mrs. E's from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Tuesday:
"Student to Student: A Discussion on Diversity" is a seven-student panel and audience discussion about diversity issues such as race, religion and media. Participants will gauge how well the University is preparing them to deal with diversity in the work place, said Aramis Watson, Wichita senior, who is leading the discussion. She is president of the Association of University Residence Halls and coordinator of the event.
Wednesday:
"I think it helps for people to talk, to come into contact with diversity issues because that's when it can hit home with someone and make them think," Watson said.
"There are a thousand different types of women out there but we have a tendency to think about one specific image as an ideal," Beck said. "Broadening the image of our ideal woman will help women have a more realistic idea of what they can expect of themselves, instead of trying to live up to an image that might not ever be possible." Thursday:
Thursday.
The Writing on the Wall project will be torn down at noon Thursday. It's a symbolic event that will represent ridding society of discrimination, injustice and oppression. The 300-cinder-block wall will be built Wednesday morning in front of Stauffer-Flint Hall and until it's torn down, students and faculty are going to be asked to draw, paint and write about discrimination.
Friday through Sunday:
About 50 students will take part in the third annual Colors of KU retreat next weekend. Students have already been selected for this year's retreat at the Tall Oaks campground.

Iraq expected to accept U.N.'s call for disarmament
CAIRO, Egypt — Iraq was expected to accept the U.N. resolution to disarm Egypt's foreign minister said yesterday. But if Baghdad fails to follow through, U.S. officials said a Pentagon plan called for more than 200,000 troops to invade Iraq.
Iraq's foreign minister said Saturday no decision had been taken but several other Arab diplomats at a meeting of the Arab League here said that in effect Iraq had already accepted the resolution.
"I think we can expect a positive position by the Iraqis," said the Egyptian envoy, Ahmed Maher.
The New York Times reported Saturday on its Web site that Bush has approved a Pentagon plan for invading Iraq, should the new U.N. arms inspection effort fail.
Several White House officials reached Saturday declined to comment on the report, but defense officials said on condition of anonymity that the plan calls for a land, sea and air force of 200,000 to 250,000 troops, at least twice the number initially considered.

Malvo admits role in attacks during seven-hour interview
FAIRFAX, Va. — John Lee Malvo, the 17-year-old accused in a series of sniper attacks that terrorized the Washington, D.C., suburbs, admitted during a seven-hour interrogation that he was the triggerman in some of the killings, The Washington Post reported.
In a story for Sunday editions posted on its Web site, The Post, citing sources, said Malvo provided details about several of the killings, and admitted shooting FBI analyst Linda Franklin on Oct. 14.
Malvo had already been charged with capital murder in the case, and was being interviewed after being moved to Fairfax County, where he will be tried.
Malvo and John Allen Muhammad, 41, are charged with carrying out the shooting spree over a three-week period in Virginia, Maryland and Washington, D.C. They are also accused of
shootings in Alabama, Georgia and Louisiana.
In all, the pair have been accused of shooting 19 people, killing 13 of them. Two other shootings are under investigation.
According to The Post, Malvo told investigators the shootings were well planned and involved scouting missions—and that he and his partner behaved like soldiers, one serving as a lookout and the other as the shooter.
The pair used two-way radios to communicate, the paper reported, and if traffic or other conditions weren't acceptable, they would not shoot. Sources said Malvo also said the pair moved around to create confusion, and watched news coverage of their crimes.
Malvo was chatty and even boastful during the interview, sources told The Post, but refused to talk about Muhammad—or to even mention his name, instead using the term "we."

Officials say spill at creek was caused by gas vandals
TOPEKA — Vandals are suspected of causing at least 1,000 gallons of diesel fuel to spill from at least one train engine and flow into a creek.
Topeka Fire Department spokesman Greg Bailey said a hazardous materials crew contained the spill Friday in Shunganunga Creek before it reached the Kansas River. The cleanup was expected to continue through the weekend.
The spill originated from a storage yard where 20 locomotive engines were parked, said Steve Forsberg, a spokesman for Burlington Northern Santa Fe Corp.
He said no one was able to find a natural source for the leak, and he suspects someone was siphoning.
Julie Coleman, the northeast district environmental administrator for the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, said the spill was not expected to affect wildlife because the fuel was contained and the contaminated soil would be removed.

Man charged with murder for second time in 3 years
and armed criminal action in the deaths Friday of Melody Cooley, 21, and Antoine Cooley, 19.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - A man acquitted of murder in April and recently released from prison has been charged with killing his wife and brother after seeing them kiss.
Police said Vincent Cooley said he saw his wife kissing his brother late Friday. Antoine Cooley had moved in with the couple after his recent release from jail.
Clay County prosecutors on Saturday charged Vincent D. Cooley, 24, with two counts of first-degree murder
Vincent Cooley got a gun and shot Antoine at the bedroom door, then shot his wife as she stood near the front door. Vincent Cooley then went to the kitchen, got a knife and slit his
wife's throat, police said.
Vincent Cooley was charged in 1999 in the murder of Clifton Aaron, 21. At trial, Cooley admitted he killed Aaron after the two had smoked PCP. He contended it was self-defense.
Jurors found him not guilty of second-degree murder and armed criminal action. He was convicted of possessing PCP and a Jackson County judge sentenced Cooley to 16 years.

Fundraiser challenges community to feast
Kevin McCabe, St. Louis senior, Megan Bolton, Overland Park senior, and Alison Swindler, Prairie Village senior, pick up a pizza and breadsticks from The Wheel Pizza Company below The Wheel, 507 W. 14th St. Delta Delta Delta and the Wheel Pizza Company sponsored "Make Your Meal" last week.

Students who bought a slice of pizza at The Wheel Pizza Company last week satisfied their late-night, bar-hopping hunger, but more importantly, aided St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
Delta Delta Delta sponsored its first "Make Your Meal," at The Wheel Pizza Company, 507 W. 14th St. The fundraiser started Monday and ended last night.
Twenty-five cents per a slice of pizza or $2 per an entire pizza sold was donated to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, TriDelta's philanthropy.
Women from Tri-Delta were on hand from 5 p.m. until 2:30 a.m. every night, keeping tallies on slices sold, and hawking the event to passersby and patrons.
"We explained what we were doing to people who otherwise would have only bought one slice; they seemed really excited and bought more," Danielle Tripp, Tri-Delta member and St. Louis sophomore, said.
Tri-Delta members kept tallies on every slice of pizza sold; pieces eaten by individual chapters in
the fraternity and sorority system were also counted. The fraternity and sorority that ate the most pizza will be awarded a free party bus rental for an event their chapter will hold.
Jackie Smid, philanthropy chair for Tri-Delta, said the event was a type of campus-wide pizza eating tournament for a good cause, and that people had been
supportive.
supportive "We've basically challenged people; we wanted to see how much pizza the campus, the community, could eat," Smid, Overland Park junior, said. She said some chapters had been buying whole pizzas, and a couple of chapters planned to order pizza for their Sunday dinners, she said.
The amount raised had yet to be determined, but Smid said Tri-Delta didn't have a monetary goal to reach for because this was the first event.
They plan to do it again next year. More than 3,500 pieces of pizza had been sold as of yesterday afternoon.

Grant will pay for new center on campus
By Justin Henning
jhenning@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas was awarded a $3.6 million grant to further its research on communication disorders.
The grant will be used to create a new center, called The Biobehavioral Neurosciences Communications Disorders Center, and will be directed by Mabel Rice, a distinguished professor of speech-language-hearing at the University.
The development of the center
will provide further research on projects that deal with communication disorders. Various projects include professor John Colombo's examination of an infant's capability to remember and recognize and how they relate to future problems with learning and speech. Another project is professor Susan Kemper's work, which shows how speech in older age relates to a decline in a person's working memory.
"The award attests to the high regard for the scientific accomplishments of individual investigators affiliated with the center, and the fact that KU's team of investigators is among the top teams in the nation," Rice said.
Previous research done at the University had already resulted in products, such as the first diagnostic test for Specific Language Impairment. Called the "Actifier," the device is a high-tech pacifier that helps premature babies learn to nurse and can detect developmental disabilities in the infant.
Studies. The grant, which is administered by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders, can be renewed every five years. It marks the University as one of only 15 national centers that receive this federal funding.
This center will be the 13th established under the Schiefelbusch Institute for Life Span
Steven Warren, Life Span Institute director, said the grant supported his belief that KU was one of the strongest programs in the country on communication development and disorders throughout the lifespan.

Anarchists strive to promote equality during conference
By George Schulz
gschulz@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Anarchists don't see any irony in organization.
Participants in Saturday's Kansas Anarchist Caucus insist organizing a network of radicals from around the state does not go against anarchist theory.
It's oppressive government regimes leveraging too much control over docile masses of people they say they oppose.
"Anarchism simply means 'without rulers,'" said Dave Strano, Lawrence resident and organizer for the event. "You can have organization without rulers. Friendships exist without hierarchy in which people cooperate with each other. Anarchism is about cooperation and not competition."
About 30 anarchism activists from around the state gathered Saturday in Navarre Hall of the Haskell Indian Nations University to participate in a series of workshops and strategy sessions to address issues of concern to anarchists.
The list included labor issues, egalitarianism, ideological differences within the anarchist movement and ways to form a more cohesive network among activists throughout the state.
Proposals were designed beforehand to be addressed during the strategy sessions. With an emphasis on consensus among all participants, the goal was to promote equality.
Anarchists believe in racial, gender and economic equality driven not by the state as in communism, but by people organized collectively.
"Decisions have to be made by the community," Jared James, Lawrence resident, said during a workshop.
Nathan Hoffman, Kansas City Kan., sophomore, agreed.
"I'm here because in order to build a strong movement we have to have community in the surrounding area, not just sects of anarchists around the state," he said. "We should have open discussion with all others in the movement."
Hoffman added that he thought consensus voting among people would be more a effective social order than representative government.
"When the anarchist philosophy was first formed it depended on a strong organization of the community," he said. "It still relies on people making decisions as a community. It is a reality that society can be run by consensus."
Lawrence anarchists have largely slipped under the campus political radar. But last summer local anarchists organized a nationwide gathering in Lawrence at Clinton Lake. More than 300 activists traveled from as far away as Canada and Mexico to attend the conference and plan strategies about how the relatively unpopular idea of anarchism could be accepted as a viable alternative to current political system.
Saturday's caucus had similar goals as participants weighed the benefits of public demonstrations and other methods of advancing change including civil disobedience. The group also discussed workplace, neighborhood and housing assemblies for Kansas residents to play more of a role in decisions that impact their lives.
Strano said students should be more aware of community movements beyond the University's gates.
"There are tons of community groups that work beyond party lines," he said. "Any grass roots initiative is about community organization."

Law school grading policy shuts out "A" students
There's a new arrival at the School of Law but not all are welcoming it.
Effective Fall 2002, all classes at KU's School of Law are now graded on a mandatory curve.
The grading policy places all first-year classes on a class-average scale of 2.8-3.0, all required non-first year classes on a class-average scale of 2.9-3.1, and the rest of the classes on a class-average 2.8-3.4 scale.
Webb Hecker, assistant dean of the law school, explained that the policy was instituted to create a standard rubric of grading for the law school and thus ensuring more equity across classes. Before the curve, many students were picking classes based upon the grading style of a professor, not upon what they needed to take to better prepare themselves to become a lawyer.
However this new grading policy has left some stinging side effects. The school is not a community-enrichment program.
To be accepted into its doors, one must be educated, fairly smart and highly, if not manically, motivated to get good grades. A good percentage of law students do A level work, but because of the new policy, not all of them will receive a corresponding grade.
A typical second- or third-year class is filled with about 15, tenacious students who survived their first year of classes.
Under the new policy, in these
classes the difference between an A and C student may be only a few points.
Jeffrey Morris, Lawrence law student, said the mandatory curve would create an unhealthy environment.
He said the policy was sending a message that the school's focus is on stratifying students into class rank instead of learning the law and giving grades that mirror actual performance.
Many other students are of the same accord. According to several students, some professors have now resorted to differentiating between A and non-A students based on spelling errors and misplacement of titles.
The new grading policy also undervalues the discretion of the professor. Professors spend time interacting and counseling their students. They are better positioned to evaluate a student's competency and quality of work than a faceless policy.
The new law school grading policy is using a sledgehammer where a needle and thread are needed.
Instead of working with professors to improve their grading skills and counseling law students to challenge themselves upon choosing electives, the school has worked out its grading equity problems but has also hurt many hard working students along the way.

Diversity must be addressed beyond the classroom walls
On Feb. 28, Alexia Plummer, a guest columnist, suggested in "Ethnic studies illuminate diversity, present a balanced viewpoint," in The University Daily Kansan that all students attempt to learn about diversity by taking classes that deal with other cultures. I do not think this advice is sufficient to deal with the campus'inability to grasp the true nature of diversity.
One of my professors who teaches a class on diversity in the media, always reminds the class that minorities are last in the foot race we call life.
GUEST COMMENTARY
I read in the Homecoming edition about how the University had not elected a Homecoming Queen in 20 years. The Black Student Union has elected one every year for the past 20 years, but this wasn't reported in the Kansan.
The naive students on campus may think equality is alive and well but all one has to do is look around campus and see that there is a severe lack of respect or observance for other cultures.
As minorities we are constantly having to run faster and work harder to stay in the game.
Tish Merritt opinion@kansan.com
GOES COMMUNITY
I thought about this race scenario for a while. The whole notion of being behind is not new to me. Examples like the Homecoming edition of the Kansan prove how little we've progressed.
I search the paper for stories that deal with minority issues, any of our issues, but usually they are either non-existent or misconstrued. We walk into classrooms and receive questioning looks as to why we are entering the class or even how we got there.
As a society we are taught that race, gender and sexual orientation issues are progressing. The world is supposedly a better more open place, but KU's general population proves otherwise.
If the University's environment is supposed to be a microcosm of society, what do minorities have to look forward to after they leave the "friendly" confines of these limestone-filled hills?
This is where Alexzia's suggestions began to take form but failed to take on a distinguishable shape. She believed classes alone could help students truly understand diversity.
Somehow these classes would wake up the sleeping libral in all of us and after a
Classes are only a step though in the right direction. When we truly immerse ourselves in the stories of those who have experienced the pain and suffering, we share an intimate part of their lives, which in turn become a part of us.
I recommend students to open up the dialogue of understanding by reading and listening to minorities' life stories. Accepting diversity is the only way for our society to grow.
I challenge even those who disagree to attempt the inconceivable.
It's time KU students get a clue and stop accepting mainstream mythology that minority life has evolved and is sufficient. Martin Luther King Jr. said: "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught up in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly." It is time to wake up, read up and open up.

Lives of KU veterans honored by memorials, peace vigils
Richard Shannon was my classmate at Washington High School in Kansas City, Kansas. He played on the varsity football team, and he was in the Key Club and the Press Club.
Richard later graduated from KU with a degree in education, in social studies. Finally, he enlisted in the US Army.
On May 12, 1969, two months after he arrived in Vietnam, Corporal Shannon's jeep was hit by an incoming mortar round. He died of "multiple fragmentation wounds." He was 25 years old.
Richard Shannon is one of 57 names of KU students on the KU Vietnam Memorial, near the intersection of West Campus Road and Memorial Drive.
There are other memorials here to people who died in past wars.
The Kansas Memorial Student Union, built in the 1930's, and Kansas Memorial Stadium are dedicated to the 130 KU students who died in World War I.
The Memorial Campanile and Carillon are dedicated to the 276 KU faculty and students who died in World War II.
Their photos are in the Union on level four, on the wall just outside the door to the Administrative Offices.

There will also be a 24-hour ROTC vigil at the Vietnam Memorial beginning at 6 p.m.
You will be able to see high school yearbook photos of Richard Shannon there, especially for this occasion.
Events begin with a retreat at 4 p.m. at the Strong Hall flagpole and will continue with a speech and program in the Student Union in Woodruff Auditorium at 4:45 p.m.
If you want to help avoid another war, to possibly save the lives of those ROTC Cadets who will be holding vigil today at KU's Vietnam Memorial, you can join others in Lawrence who stand in vigil
You can also go to the Web Site Iraq Peace Pledge, at peacepledge.org, to join others in opposing more death and destruction.

President
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
David Ambler, former vice provost for student affairs, said the current compensation amount was set because administrators didn't want to portray the presidency as a full-time job. Ambler acted as an adviser to the student body president position for 25 years at KU and said it wasn't unusual for a president to put in a 50-hour week.
The road to the student body president office isn't without significant costs either. In each of the past three years, records show winning campaigns spent between $3,000 and $6,000.
"Students are getting a good deal for their buck in terms of representation." Ambler said.
Many times, the student body presidential candidate ends up absorbing many of the expenses.
The financial responsibility of running a campaign relied heavily on the student body president candidate, said Karen Keith, who ran for president with Delta Force last spring.
"I was really fortunate that I had some dispensable money." Keith said.
Keith, Tulsa, Okla., senior, said managing her campaign was financially easier because she was on full academic scholarship.
"It would be a very different story if I was paying for school," Keith said.
In Keith's case, one financial responsibility meant putting up the money for kegs of beer at coalition fund-raising parties. According to the Delta Force
2002 final expense statement,
Keith put up $300 for such
expenses and she was not guaranteed to get that money back. To help defer this and similar costs,
Delta Force held parties after the election last spring and at the beginning of this school year to repay Keith and others who contributed money.
Keith also said running with a large coalition helped with raising funds.
Mills said he spent approximately $200 through smaller costs that added up over the course of his campaign for presidency. In addition, the Delta Force 2001 final expense report shows Mills' parents contributed $400 to his campaign.
In their KUnited campaign, Ng and Vice President Loren Malone contributed heavily to

Yoder said he spent approximately $1,000 on his campaign. He said in order to attract the attention of 25,000 student voters, it was necessary to spend money on advertising.
"The money was a small sacrifice for the opportunity," Yoder

said.
While both Ng and Mills agreed that not every KU student would be able to afford running for student body president, Ng likened the presidency to public service at any level.
"A single mother with three kids probably couldn't run for Kansas governor," Ns said.

housed at JRP, take no position on the matter, Mike Neal, assistant dean of the school of education, said KU on Wheels should continue to examine ridership as the weather gets colder.
"Most of their research was done during very warm weather." Neal said. "I asked them to continue researching during the time of year when it's a greater service to the students."
Appleby said the transportation board would consider dropping the route because an extra bus would be needed in other locations on campus as the weather got colder—specifically on Daisy Hill where ridership is greater.
Neal said he wanted to make the students aware that the transportation board was making a decision on the route and they should voice their opinions.
The existing route to JRP picks up students at GSP-Corbin Hall, travels through campus, unloads and picks up students at JRP and then circles back through campus to GSP-Corbin.
If the transportation board cancels the route, the next closest stop for students headed to JRP is at Snow Hall, 1,100 feet away, by way of sidewalk, Appleby said.
"Based on sheer numbers, it makes sense to move the bus over to a Daisy Hill route," Appleby said.
KU on Wheels added the route at the beginning of this semester after officials from the School of Education made an appeal for

the route at hearings in the past two years.
Last spring, officials presented a petition with approximately 300 names of students who wanted the route. Appleby said the transportation board created the route strictly on a trial basis.
"We figured, 'Hey, we'll at least try it,' Appleby said. "If it didn't work out, it was off the route."
Students who currently ride the route said it would be a greater convenience in the approaching winter months.
"It will be a pain in the butt to walk—especially when it gets really cold," said Allison Stonacek, Omaha, Neb., freshman.
Other students admit that the route isn't attracting a large number of riders.
Mariel Maddison, Greenwood Village, Colo., freshman, said she was the only one on the bus in its last leg from Snow Hall to JRP during the few times she rode it.
Although Appleby said he expected the board would vote to cancel the route, that decision could change if a great number of students voiced their concerns and started riding the route.

Children ages 2 to 13 participated in the art activities.

Hemenway names new city liaison
An assistant to Chancellor Robert Hemenway will become Hemenway's liaison to the Lawrence community, a role left vacant since Reggie Robinson. Hemenway's former chief of staff, left in October to become president of the Board of Regents.
Jeff Weinberg, assistant to the chancellor, will serve as liaison between Hemenway and the University's constituents in Lawrence, Hemenway announced Friday. Hemenway had announced earlier that Robinson's position would not be filled because of budget constraints. Instead, its duties will be divided up: Mary Burg, executive assistant, will act as Hemenway's liaison with the Athletics Department. Janet Murguia, executive vice chancellor for University Relations, will be the chancellor's liaison with the Alumni Association. Along with James Potorff, University general counsel, Murguia will also take charge of managing "the flow and analysis of policy issues through the chancellor's office," the office announced.
"Given the budget situation, the KU administration must practice what it preaches," Hemenway said. "I am taking this vacancy as an opportunity to cut administrative costs and do more with less."
Lecture to discuss U.S.-Asia policy
The speech, titled "Central Asia: The Cradle, Crucible and Crossroads of Civilizations" and sponsored by the Office of International Programs, will be held at 3:30 p.m. tomorrow at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
"It is easy to merely identify and assign historical and geographic significance to the Caucasus and Central Asia just ask Alexander the Great. Xerxes, Genghis Khan or Vladimir Lenin." Brady said. "However, the challenge in the first decade after the fall of the Soviet Union was to see its relevance for the United States."
The people, politics and geography of Central Asia will be the topic when Thomas Brady, Central Asia specialist and aide to U.S. Sen. Sam Brownback, speaks on campus tomorrow.

Small ensembles will perform classics from the 1920s such as Kurt Weill's "A Little Threepenny Music" and "Symphonies of Wind Instruments" by Igor Stravinsky. Later, the entire wind ensemble will play "Irish Tune from County Derry" by Percy Grainger.
The concert, "Roaring 20s," will begin at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday in the Lied Center.

Men's Glee Club celebrates revival with performance

Hugo A. Vera, director of KU Men's Glee Club, performs Schubert's "Standchen" with his choir in the Swarthout Recital Hall. Vera has conducted the group, which was canceled in 1995 and revived in 1997, for two years. The free concert concluded last night with a medley of KU fight songs.

When it was terminated in 1995, KU Men's Glee Club had 12 members. But last night, 48 men filled the stage of Swarthout Recital Hall in Murphy. The performance marked the fifth year of the club's revival, which started again in 1997.
Like the diversity of the show's musical selections, which varied from classical hymns to 1950s pop, the members of the club are an eclectic mix of many majors.
Hugo A. Vera, director, said 90 percent of the members are non-music majors.
"It's a miracle you can find
these many guys who sing," said
these Lawrence graduate student
But they share a love of singing and a sense of humor.
While warming up for the performance, Vera used a football analogy to encourage volume from the singers.
"Just pretend like the Chiefs are actually winning and you're cheering really loud," he said.
Even though he's an engineering major, Richard Pass, Leawood senior, said he still got to keep music in his life, thanks to the easy-going structure of the club.
In the midst of his fourth year as a member, the club fits with his lifestyle, he said.
The club practices on Tuesday
and Thursday nights from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. The practices don't take away from his class time, he said.
"There's a very social aspect," he said.
Vera said the reason so many non-music majors were attracted to the club was because of the camaraderie.
He said he tried to keep the mood of the club light and relaxed so the members would want to be at rehearsals. There are no nervewracking auditions. Those interested just sing a few simple scales, he said.
"If you can stay on pitch, you are in." Vera said.
Word of mouth is the main reason the club is making a comeback.
"These guys are animals when it comes to recruiting," said John Paul Johnson, director of choral activities.
Johnson said the club did a great job of pumping up school spirit.
The club has performed at many university events, such as football and men's basketball games.
Brent Schneider, Hoisington freshman, said the combination of the group's strong work ethic and sense of fun made him want to be a member for as long as he was here.
"It's actually fun to go to practice," he said.
Political historian reflects on events in career

When he was 4 years old, Michael Beschloss watched Richard Nixon pass through Chicago in the presidential motorcade.
The event was the first in a series that encouraged Beschloss to become a political historian.
He never imagined years later he would be granted three hours to interview the retired Nixon who at the time was scrambling to
establish a legacy, shortly before the former president's death.
"There was a catch to all this," Beschloss told a group of about 1,920 people at the Lied Center last night. "He would only meet with young historians and journalists."
sion.
Beschloss said Nixon preferred to give young people interviews because they were less aware of his angry and sometimes explosive personality in the White House.
He said his meeting with Nixon was three hours of sheer confu-
Unfortunately for Beschloss, whose obsession is history, Nixon wanted only to talk about the future. But no one had told Beschloss.
Beschloss decided to tell Nixon of the time he witnessed his motorcade passing through Chicago.
"He fell dead silent and changed the subject," he said.
Beschloss later realized that Nixon had lost an election to John F. Kennedy in Chicago in 1960. Apparently, toward the end
of his life, Nixon had no interest in remembering any shortcomings in his political career.
Aside from Beschloss' learning experiences, he has written a handful of political history books covering former presidents' administrations.
His most recent, The Conquerors, documents Franklin Roosevelt and Harry Truman's battle against Adolf Hitler and Nazi Germany during World War II. Prior to that, he completed the transcription of thousands of hours of conversation
taped by Lyndon B. Johnson in the White House and on his ranch in Texas.
Richard Sherry, Kansas City,
Mo., grad student, said he had
seen Beschloss on The News
Hour with Jim Lehrer
"We've seen him on PBS and I was pretty interested in his insights," said Sherry.
Beschloss' talk was sponsored by the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics, Douglas County Bank and Kansas Public Radio.

Jayhawks keep losing
Nebraska defeats team for 34th game in a row
By John Domoney

The Kansas football team is in uncharted waters as it enters its final week of practice for this Saturday's season finale with Oklahoma State at Memorial Stadium.
On Saturday in Lincoln, Neb., Kansas lost its 34th straight game to Nebraska 45-7 dropping its record to 2-9. Kansas is 0-7 in conference play for the first time since 1986, and the Jayhawks are in danger of not winning a conference game for the first time since 1987. That year's team finished 0-6-1 in the Big Eight Conference.
"Once again, our kids gave everything they had," Kansas coach Mark Mangino said. "It's so hard to go into that locker room after the game and tell them that I love their effort because they are tired of that. They want to win."
After Nebraska running back Dahran Diedrick opened the game's scoring with a 53-yard touchdown run with 11:09 in the first quarter, Kansas senior quarterback Jonas Weatherbie connected with senior wide receiver Byron Gasaway for a 50- yard touchdown pass.
The touchdown pass was the last highlight for the Jayhawks. Weatherbie left the game with a tear in his anterior cruciate ligament with 4:45 left in the first quarter.
Mangino said the injury was a tough way for Weatherbie's career to end at Kansas after he had directed the Kansas offense to 109 first-quarter vards.
"He really looked sharp and we were really happy with Jonas," Mangino said.
"We were talking on the headsets about him looking good. The coaches upstairs asked me what does he look like and what is his demeanor. I told
After Weatherbie was injured, the Cornhuskers scored 31 unanswered points.
them it was great."
Nebraska outrushed Kansas 352 yards to 71 yards behind their duo of running backs.
David Horne led the attack with 122 yards on nine carries to go along with Diedrick, who rushed for 107 vards on 12 carries.
'Husker coach Frank Solich said after the game that Kansas was at a disadvantage when Weatherbie left the game.
be told this game.
"If you look at it from the standpoint that going into the game Kansas was operating with their second-string quarterback, and then ended using their third-string quarterback an awful lot," Sollic said.
"That puts them behind the eight ball a little bit."
Second-year freshman quarterback Brian Luke replaced Weatherbie and completed 7-of-22 passes for 79 yards. Freshman Greg Heaggans also played several series at quarterback.
Heaggans, who played quarterback on the Kansas scout team in practice, never attempted a pass. He ran the ball eight times for 11 yards. Recruited as a receiver, Heaggans has seen the majority of his playing time on special teams returning kickoffs. Heaggans said he was eager to step on the field as quarterback after playing the position in high school.
"I love quarterback so I figure I can come out here and give it a try." Heaggans said.
The quarterback position has been uncertain for the Jayhawks since starting quarterback Bill Whittemore was injured against Missouri on Oct. 26.
Saturday will be senior day against Oklahoma State and the last chance for the Jayhawks to win a game in the Big 12 Conference.
"We are going to do everything we can this week to prepare for Oklahoma State," Mangino said. "It's our seniors last game in Memorial Stadium and we would like nothing better than for them to leave with their heads high."

Jonas Weatherbie waited a long time for an opportunity to be Kansas' starting quarterback. That opportunity has come and gone in two games.
SEE WEATHERBIE ON PAGE 6B
The fifth-year senior got that chance last weekend against Kansas State. He threw an interception and completed 2-of-9 passes for zero yards, before coach Mark Mangino benched him in favor of freshman Brian Luke. But that wasn't the last Jayhawk fans
would see of Weatherbie.
He fared only slightly better in terms of complements, finishing 3 of 9 against the Cornhuskers, but he was clearly improved from the K-State game. He calmly ran the jayhawk offense, passing for 74 yards without a turnover. He did not seem rattled when the Nebraska defense crashed through the Jayhawks'
After practicing for a full week as the team's number-one quarterback, he made one last start against Nebraska Saturday.
Backup Luke may be key after all
Unlike your stereotypical male, I'm able to admit I may have been wrong.
In a column last Thursday, I said Kansas football coach Mark Mangino should start second-year freshman Brian Luke at quarterback in the team's final two games. I thought starting senior Jonas Weatherbie would make little sense because the Jayhawks were unlikely to win either game, so getting Luke game experience was the most important goal.
Mangino either didn't read my column or thought his 12 years of Big 12 Conference football experience gave him better insight. He started Weatherbie against Nebraska on Saturday, and the signal-caller responded with an inspired performance.

Weatherbie moved the ball well his first two plays, a four-yard run and a 17-yard completion to wide receiver Byron Gasaway, but the drive stalled near midfield and Nebraska scored on its first possession.
After Clark Green's five-yard run started the Jayhawks' second drive, Weatherbie found Gasaway wide open near the Cornhuskers' 10-yard line for a 50-yard touchdown pass that tied the game at seven. Weatherbie ran down the field, pumping his fist in celebration of the score, a career-long for both seniors.

Swim team wins meet at home
The Kansas swimming and diving team won its first home meet of the season on Saturday, defeating Wyoming 78-35 and Southwest Missouri State 75-20.
The Jayhawks improved their season record to 3-1, with the help of 21 seasonbest times.
"We came out and competed well," said coach Clark Campbell. "We were sharp, focused and we had a goal of putting together races well, and we accomplished that goal."
Junior Ashley Dower and senior Heidi Landherr were the stars of the meet for Kansas, Campbell said.
"They were thrown a big challenge," he said. "The number of events they swam, and the proximity of how close they were together. They put together outstanding races that they won, which was key."
Dower finished first in the 50-yard freestyle with a time of 24.61, and first in the 100 freestyle with a time of 53.37. Landherr finished first in the 200 backstroke, with a season-best time of 2:08.83, and second in the 200 butterfly with 2:09.30.

Bowling team improves at national tournament
The University of Kansas men's bowling team took fifth place out of a field of 46 teams in the Brunswick Great Lakes Collegiate tournament in Chicago over the weekend.
KU was led by senior Jesse James, who averaged the tournament's second highest score of 224. Senior Jason Elliott, Kansan staff member, was the second Jayhawk in the Top 10, placing ninth with an average score of 213. Graduate student Jason Reese finished with an average of 208. Ryan Ludwig, senior, followed with 205. Sophomore Marc D'Errico and freshman Ryan "Rhino" Page bowled averages of 199 and 195 respectively.
The women's team finished 13th out of 34 teams in the tournament. Freshmen Kelly Zapf and Annetta Manthei tied for the team-high average of 187. Senior Kristina Boehm was five pins behind with 182. Boehm was followed by freshmen Sarah Roenfeldt with 162, Kelly Sanders with 158 and Alecia Savage with 155.
"This was a national tournament, so it was the team's first experience with teams from both coasts," coach Mike Fine said. "It was a very good showing. The men's team placed sixth here last year, so we did show improvement."
The team will play next over the Thanksgiving holiday at the National Collegiate Team Match in St. Louis.

Graves now official member of Jayhawk squad

A collective sigh of relief from the Kansas men's basketball team swept across campus last Wednesday, starting at Memorial Stadium and ending at Allen Fieldhouse.

Graves' lack of preparation.
"You can't play at this level with that kind of commitment that he gave," Williams said. "He made some huge mistakes in the off season, allowed himself to really get out of shape."
Hard practices, paired with the possibility of never playing a minute throughout the entire season, motivated Graves to make the team.
"I've been pretty doggone tough on him in practice," Williams said. "If we'd have gone through 35 games or whatever, if he would have never passed the running tests, he would have never
Because Williams does not allow new players to speak with media until after the official first game, Graves has not commented on his situation. But sophomore Wayne Simien said the preseason talk took its toll on Graves.
"No matter how tough you are, you can say those kind of things don't bother you, but you could tell it was kind of getting to him," Simien said. "In the locker room we've just been trying to encourage and motivate him as much as possible. We're all happy for him."

"That was about as happy as I've ever seen him Wednesday immediately after that," he said.
And as Graves' first criticizer, Williams also offered Graves his first congratulations.
"I was really happy for him because I have been really tough on him," Williams said. "He's partially out of the dog house — now we'll see how he can play."

All-stars lose in Japan
Goat
TOKYO—Barry Bonds opened a seven-game all-star series with one of his worst games in 11/2 years.
The Associated Press
Bonds struck out three times as the major league all-stars lost to their Japanese counterparts 8-4 yesterday in the opener of their exhibition series.
ARROW
During the regular season, Bonds has not struck out three times in a game since Aug. 8,2001—when he was called out three times against Cincinnati and argued with plate umpire Jerry Meals.
Bonds, who homered twice Saturday against the Japanese champion Yomiuri Giants, fanned three times against Yomiuri right-hander Koji Uehara, who also struck out Jason Giambi twice.
M
"I really wanted the win." Uehara said. "It felt great to strike out Bonds and Giambi. The only mistake I made was that slider to Hunter."
"He had a great forkball," said Giambi, who also homered twice Saturday "He threw it hard enough that you couldn't sit on it and he made quality pitches all night."
Uehara, who led the Central League with 17 wins, allowed one run and five hits in six innings and struck out eight. He allowed just one hit in the first four innings, a single by Giambi in the second.
Bonds, expected to win his fifth NL MVP award today, also was MVP of the 2000 exhibition tour of Iapan, hitting four homers with nine RBIs.
Uehara allowed a solo homer in the fifth to Minnesota's Torii Hunter.

Hideki Matsui hit a two-run double off Florida's
Brad Penny as Japan went ahead in a five-run third. Matsui, who wants to play in the major leagues, is a free agent and can start negotiating with all teams starting 10 a.m. EST tomorrow.
Matsui went 1-for-4 Saturday in Yomiuri's 8-1 loss.
"They pitched me tough yesterday," Matsui said. "But I'm starting to feel a little more comfortable at the plate and am getting into the mood of this series."
Seattle's Ichiro Suzuki, a former star in Japan, went 0-for-4.
Alex Cabrera homered and drove in three runs for the Japanese all-stars. Cabrera, who used to play for Arizona and tied Japan's season record with 55 homered, connected in the seventh off Philadelphia's Randy Wolf for a 6-1 lead.
Norihiro Nakamura of the Kintetsu Buffalo and Yoshitomo Tani of the Orix BlueWave both hit RBI singles in the seventh to make it 8-1. The Japanese all-stars had 18 hits — including 15 singles — off Penny, Wolf, Mike Fetters and Scott Schoeweis.
"I didn't hold anything back," Cabrera said. "Everybody is really excited about this series and I was happy to contribute."
Penny, who allowed a go-ahead third-inning homer to Hanshin's Makoto Imaoka, gave up five runs and eight hits in 2:2.3 innings and was the loser.
Oakland's Eric Chavez hit an RBI double in the ninth off Yasuhi Oyamada, and Minnesota's A.J. Pierzynski and Jacque Jones hit RBI grounders.
Teams cut pricey contracts
The Associated Press
New labor deal transfers cash from big-to small-market teams
TUCSON, Ariz. — Baseball teams won't be quite as quick this offseason to dole out those megamillion contracts that characterized recent winter spending sprees.
The Yankees aren't the only team that will try to rein in spending as most other teams will try to keep their payroll under the $117 million luxury-tax threshold put in place in the new labor deal.
Even the free-spending New York Yankees will have to work within a tighter budget because of the new labor deal that team officials project will cost at least $20 million more in luxury-tax and revenue-sharing payments next season
With a new labor deal that transfers money from the big spenders to the smaller markets, a struggling economy and few top players available, teams are talking more about financial discipline than breaking contract barriers this year.
"We project we'll have to pay an additional $10 million in revenue sharing," Seattle general manager Pat Gillick said. "Consequently, that's got to come from somewhere and we'll have to be creative in our contracts."
This newfound austerity has some agents concerned heading into this week's general managers' meetings in Arizona.
"There's really nothing to be gleaned from anything that's taken place yet," agent Tom Reich said. "The most common refrain these days is budget, budget, budget, just like real estate with location, location, location. We'll see what happens. It's going to be a long winter."
In the past four offseasons, teams have broken the $100 million mark in contracts for Alex Rodriguez, Derek Jeter, Manny Ramirez, Jason Giambi, Mike Hampton, Ken Griffey Jr., Todd Helton and Kevin Brown.
No players in this year's class figure to get that big a contract but there still are some very attractive players available. Yet it will probably take more time and less money for them to find new deals.
Atlanta aces Greg Maddux and Tom Glavine high
light a group that also includes Jim Thome, Cliff Floyd, Jeff Kent, Roger Clemens and Ivan Rodriguez.
While most teams are talking about budgets, the Phillies figure to be a major player for a change in the free-agent market.
"I think it's early in the process," said Glavine's agent Gregg Clifton, who plans to talk with the New York Yankees, Mets, Texas and Philadelphia this week. "Right now teams are figuring out what their needs are. The market is a long way from establishing itself right now."
With a new ballpark a year away, the Phillies have already met with Glavine and Thome and had meetings scheduled with third baseman David Bell and pitcher Jamie Moyer.
"We've got this figured out to where we can do multiple signings." Phillies GM Ed Wade said.
One of the most highly sought after free agents will be Japanese slugger Hideki Matsui. The 28-year-old outfielder, Japan's most popular player, became a free agent after winning his third MVP award this season, and the Yankees are the leading contender for his services.
Free agents can begin talking money with all teams starting tomorrow.
As this postseason showed, teams don't need to spend big to win. While none of the teams with the top eight payrolls made it out of the first round, Anaheim won the World Series with only one major league free agent on its postseason roster and the 15th highest payroll in the game.
That doesn't mean this will become a trend.
"More than anything, general managers want to win and want to get the best players to help the team win," Clifton said. "I don't think that will ever change."
Most of the news so far this offseason has involved managers. Seven teams have hired new skiippers, and there are still openings with Seattle, San Francisco and the Chicago Cubs.
Former Giants manager Dusty Baker is the front-runner to get the job in Chicago, the Mariners will interview four finalists this week and San Francisco is forming a short list of candidates.
There could be movement among GMs, too. Oakland GM Billy Beane is talking with Boston about taking over the Red Sox after the Athletics granted permission last week.

Bonds favored to receive MVP award for fifth time
NEW YORK — Barry Bonds probably will pick up a big postseason honor today, just not the one he wanted.
After putting up another season of historic statistics, Bonds is favored to win the National League Most Valuable Player Award for the fifth time when the Baseball Writers' Association of America announces its voting today.
Bonds, the only player with more than three MVPs, won his first NL batting title this season with a .370 average and set records with 198 walks, 68 intentional walks and a.582 on-base percentage.
Bonds hit 46 homers, down from a record 73 the previous year, and a team high 110 RBIs as San Francisco won its first NL pennant since 1989. But Bonds and the Giants lost the World Series to Anaheim in seven games after being just six out from the title in Game 6.
Bonds had said a World Series ring was the one thing he had wanted.
MVP voting was conducted before the postseason, when Bonds hit .356 with eight homers, 16 RBIs and 27 walks. The 38-year-old outfielder, who often appears aloof and combative, said he enjoyed the World Series, even though the Giants didn't win. He claims to dislike the attention.
"I just want to go to the ballpark, do my job just like anybody else, go home and be with my family," he said during the World Series. "I chose to play baseball because I want to be the best at it for whatever it is for me. Being a team concept, doing the best I can. I don't like to talk about it really. I'd rather just show it on the field."

Martin creeps closer to Winston Cup victory
Kenseth got out of the pits first after the leaders pitted on lap 261 of the 312 lap Checker Auto Parts 500K, and stayed out from the rest of the way yesterday at Phoenix International Speedway.
AVONDALE, Ariz. — Matt Kenseth turned a two-tire stop into his fifth victory of the season, while Mark Martin edged closer to Tony Stewart in the battle for the Winston Cup championship.
Stewart and Martin ran in the top 10 through most of the 500-kilometer race. Martin's fourth-place finish, combined with Stewart's eighth place, chopped the margin from 112 to 89 points with only next Sunday's race in Homestead, Fla., remaining.
"We made some adjustments on our last stop and the car just wasn't right," Stewart said. "We didn't get hurt too much today. Now, we're going to a track I really like."

Aggies upset Sooners Wildcats blast Cyclones
The Associated Press
No.4 Texas 41, Baylor 0
AUSTIN, Texas — Texas wide receiver Roy Williams is healthy and catching everything thrown his way, which is bad news for Longhorns opponents.
Slowed by a hamstring pull earlier in the season, Williams enjoyed his second straight big game Saturday with eight catches for 172 yards — including a 73-yard TD on the second play — to lead No. 4 Texas to a 41-0 win over Baylor.
Williams had 13 catches for 161 yards in a 27-24 win at Nebraska a week earlier and has now caught a pass in 32 consecutive names.
Texas: 9-1,5-1 Big 12 Conference. Baylor: 3-7,1-5.
No.17 Colorado 42, Missouri 35, OT
COLUMBIA, Mo. — It took every one of Chris Brown's 211 yards to keep No. 17 Colorado on track for the Big 12 championship game.
The nation's leading rusher scored his third touchdown of the game on a 1-yard run in overtime as the Buffaloes survived a second-half Missouri comeback to win 42-35 Saturday.
Brown also scored on a 10- yard run in the first quarter and a 15-yarder in the fourth, giving him 17 rushing TDs this season.
He had 35 carries on his seventh consecutive 100-yard day, and Bobby Purify also hit the century mark for the first time this season with 119 yards on 19 carries.
Colorado: 7-3, 5-1 Big 12.
Missouri: 4-6, 1-5.
Texas Tech 49. Oklahoma St. 24
LUBBOCK, Texas — Texas Tech came into Saturday's game against Oklahoma State hoping to become bowl eligible.
After a 49-24 win and Texas A&M's 30-26 upset of No. 1 Oklahoma, the Red Raiders find themselves still alive for the Big 12 championship game.
Tech needs to beat No. 4 Texas and the Sooners in the next two weeks to possibly gain a three-way tie in the Big 12 South.Tech would win the tie breaker based on head-to-head wins.
Tech quarterback Kliff Kingsbury completed 38 of 49 passes for 425 yards and four touchdowns against the Cowboys.

COLLEGE STATION, Texas — Oklahoma escaped Kyle Field two years ago, clearing the way for the Sooners to win the national title.
They couldn't pull off another victory against Texas A&M on
Saturday, losing 30-26 to drop from No.1.
Freshman quarterback Reggie McNeal came off the bench to throw for 191 yards and four touchdowns. He had scoring passes on three straight possessions to give Texas A&M its first lead. His fourth TD, a 40-yarder to Terrence Murphy with 1:51 left in the third quarter, put the Aggies ahead 27-23 before the teams traded field goals in the fourth quarter.
Terrence Kiel, who was burned for an earlier touchdown, intercepted Nate Hybl's pass with 1:12 left to seal the victory.

MANHATTAN, Kan. — Cornerback Bobby Walker intercepted two Seneca Wallace passes and returned them for touchdowns 23 seconds apart as No. 12 Kansas State routed Iowa State 58-7 Saturday night.
"I told Bobby he's the only defensive player in the history of college football to score on consecutive downs," coach Bill Snyder said.
"We'll labor under that assumption until somebody proves otherwise."

Despite fumbles, Rams top Chargers
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — The St. Louis Rams put the ball on the carpet again and again but recovered just in time to pull out a dramatic victory over the San Diego Chargers
The Rams lost four fumbles — two of which were returned for touchdowns — but used two touchdowns and a successful onside kick to defeat San Diego 28-24 yesterday and win their fourth straight game.
St. Louis (4-5) was led by Marc Bulger's 453 yards passing — the fourth-most in franchise history — and Isaac Bruce, who lost two of
the fumbles but caught three touchdown passes, including the 7-yard game-winner with 1:14 left.
Bruce, who had 10 receptions for 163 yards, also caught TD passes of 27 and 34 yards, the latter an acrobatic grab that cut the Chargers' lead to 24-21 with 5:06 to go.
Having burned all three timeouts in the third quarter, the Rams were forced to try an onside kick, and Dre' Bly recovered at the St. Louis 46 to set up the winning score.
The Rams staged their frenzied comeback without Marshall Faulk, who left with an injured left
The Chargers (6-3) had more than a minute to work with after Bruce's go-ahead TD, and Ronney Jenkins returned the kickoff 52 yards to the St. Louis 46. The Chargers advanced to the 30, but the threat ended when Drew Brees' pass was intercepted by Dexter McCleon in the end zone with 11 seconds left.

Bulger's outstanding performance came in what could be his final game in relief of the injured Kurt Warner.

Ohio State (11-0), the only other unbeaten major college team, moved up to No. 2 from No. 3 after its 10-6 win over Purdue. The Buckeyes totaled 1,771 points.
With the Sooners losing to Texas A&M 30-26 and Miami overpowering Tennessee 26-3 on Saturday, the Hurricanes (9-0) received all 74 first-place votes and 1,850 points from the sports writers and broadcasters on the AP panel.
Miami was No.1 for a record 21 straight polls before being unseated by Oklahoma. For the first time this season, though, the Hurricanes made a clean sweep of the votes.
Washington State (9-1) made a
big jump to No. 3 from No. 5 after a 32-21 win over Oregon, while Oklahoma (8-1) and Texas (9-1) were tied at No.4 and Iowa (10-1) was No.6. The four-one loss teams are separated by just 32 points.
Miami remained No.1 in the USA Today/ESPN coaches poll, followed by Ohio State, Texas, Washington State, Iowa and Oklahoma.
The order is not certain, but Miami and Ohio State should be first and second when the new Bowl Championship Series standings are released Monday. The Buckeyes were second and the Hurricanes third behind the Sooners last week.
The top two teams in the final BCS standings on Dec. 8 play for the BCS national title in the Fiesta Bowl on Jan. 3.
Last week, Miami lost 27 firstplace votes to Oklahoma in the AP poll after rallying for a 42-17 win over lowly Rutgers, which led by three points in the fourth quarter.
Coupled with the Sooners' 27-
11 victory over Colorado, APvoters gave the No. 1 nod to Oklahoma.
There was no doubt about No. 1 this week as Miami looked overpowering in extending its winning streak to 31 games — the longest among major colleges in 31 years and tied for the seventh longest ever.
Georgia (9-1) remained No. 7, followed by USC, Notre Dame and Alabama.
Virginia Tech (8-2), a 50-42 triple overtime loser to Syracuse, fell to No.13 from No.8 after its second straight loss. North Carolina State (9-2) also lost for the second straight week —24-21 to Maryland — and fell to No.22 from No.14.
Dropping out of the Top 25 were Arizona State, Bowling Green and Iowa State.
Bowling Green (8-1), No. 20 last week, lost its first game of the season 26-17 to Northern Illinois.
The newcomers this week are Maryland at No. 19, Auburn at No. 24 and TCU at No. 25.
Chiefs falter against 49ers
The Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO — When San Francisco's high-powered offense finally stumbled, its defense carried the 49ers to another victory.
Garrison Hearst and Kevan Barlow each rushed for a touchdown, and San Francisco bottled up Priest Holmes and Tony Gonzalez to beat the Kansas City Chiefs 17-13 yesterday for their sixth win in seven games.
The dull game on a wet field at Candlestick Park didn't exactly showcase two of the NFL's top four offenses. Both teams moved the ball consistently behind their star running backs in the first half but also had trouble making long-yardage plays — and both were almost completely shut down after halftime.
After averaging nearly 30 points per game in the last six weeks, the 49ers (7-2) went
scoreless in the second half. But thanks to their defense, which allowed just one field goal after halftime, it didn't matter.
After San Francisco chewed up more than five minutes with a drive late in the fourth quarter, Kansas City (4-5) got the ball back at its 11 with 2 minutes left. The Chiefs moved 52 yards with three long passes in 16 seconds, but Trent Green got sacked and threw three incomplete passes. Julian Peterson batted down a fourth-down throw to Gonzalez near the 20.
Kansas City's defense, ranked last in the NFL entering the game, had its way with San Francisco in the second half, holding the 49ers to 323 total yards — just 101 after halftime.
Terrell Owens caught seven passes for just 51 yards, never breaking away after a catch, while Jeff Garcia passed for just 175 yards.
But the 49ers, who spent all week working on ways to stop Holmes, were even more dominant than Kansas City.
The 'Niners held Holmes, the NFL rushing leader, to 51 yards rushing and one reception, though he scored his league-leading 16th touchdown on a 12-yard run in the second quarter. Gonzalez, Kansas City's All-Pro tight end, had one catch for 6 yards.
Eddie Kennison caught eight passes for 134 yards for the Chiefs. Green was 15-of-27 for 193 yards.
After the teams traded field goals in the first quarter, Hearst capped a 71-yard drive with a 5-yard TD run early in the second.
Two minutes later, Holmes set the franchise record with his 14th rushing touchdown of the season. He has scored in seven straight games, tying Marcus Allen's franchise record.

High-end art market suffering
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — A Claude Monet "water lilies" fetched $18.7 million at Sotheby's and a Picasso sculpture sold for $6.7 million at rival Christie's, but two other highly touted Monet garden studies failed to sell at the fall auctions of impressionist and modern art.
This month's sales, which include major contemporary works by Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein on the block next week, provide a barometer of the high-end art market. With the global economy still in the doldrums, and some collectors feeling the pinch, a number of renowned works offered this week failed to find buyers.
Bidding was generally cautious and selective for many of the works by Picasso, Monet, Modigliani, Gauguin, Rodin and other masters of French styles of the late 19th and
early 20th centuries.
Christie's noted the most interest in works in the $500,000 to $600,000 range, and $5 million to $6 million range, with more than 90 percent of the bidders from America and Europe.
Sotheby's sold 45 of 66 featured works for $81.4 million at its Tuesday night sale, and added $17 million in sales of the impressionist and modern artists Wednesday for a two-day total of $98.5 million. Christie's rang up $67.5 million from sales of 40 of 54 lots of impressionist and modern works Wednesday night, and $20.1 million in sales Thursday for a two-day total of $87.6 million.
"Quality ruled," said Charles Moffett, co-chairman of Sotheby's Impressionist and Modern Art Department. "Buyers made very deliberate and reasoned choices."
"We have a solid and steady
international market, and works of good quality, if priced correctly, continue to sell well," said Christopher Burge, honorary chairman of Christie's Americas.
Monet's "Nympeas" from 1906, one of his series showing lilies floating on his garden pond at Giverny, France, garnered the top price by far $18.7 million — topping Sotheby's high estimate of $18 million. The buyer wasn't identified.
Three years ago, the same oil on canvas brought $22 million at Christie's in New York, an indicator of reenching in prices for some very prized works.
Modigliani's "Giovanotto dai Capelli Rossi," a 1909 portrait, sold at $8.4 million, just above Sotheby's high estimate of $8 million. Marisse's "Still Life, Checkered Napkin" sold for $4.8 million, surpassing the $4 million low estimate.

nice to perform in front of a home crowd. He said the team was able to have a normal Saturday morning practice, which helped prepare it for the day's meet.
"We trained in the morning as normal, swimming and lifting weights," he said. "Then we came out and showed off our racing skills in front of everyone. There were a number of people who
swam in the community who had a chance to come see a college meet."
Despite competing against smaller schools, Campbell said Kansas came out and provided solid opposition.
"Wyoming swam the night before in Nebraska, and were beaten by Nebraska, so I'm happy to see the Big 12 doing well. I knew they wanted to perform better than the night before." he said. "SMS did well for a mid-major, and there was
excellent competition all the way around."
Campbell said he and the team were excited for the next competition, the North Carolina Invitational, Nov. 21 to 24.
"This is what I coach for, the three-day championship meets," he said. "It's the first time our athletes and staff have been together for one. We'll have a regular week, and back off a bit before the meet."

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING
Nebraska game costs Kansas its quarterback
By David Mitchell Lawrence Journal-World
LINCOLN, Neb. -- Another week, another quarterback injury.
And another loss.
Kansas University lost senior quarterback Jonas Weatherbie to a right knee injury in the second quarter Saturday at Memorial Stadium, and Nebraska rolled to a 45-7 Big 12 Conference football victory.
It was the second time in three weeks that KU lost a quarterback to a knee injury.
"Kansas was operating with their second-string quarterback, and then ended up using their third-string quarterback an awful lot," said Nebraska coach Frank Solich, whose team defeated KU for the 34th year in a row. "That puts them behind the 8-ball a little bit, and that is not taking away at all from what our defense did as the game went along."
Mangino sees another QB fall prey to injury
By Ric Anderson
Topeka Capital Journal
LINCOLN, Neb. — One was a backup quarterback for a hung-dog team playing out a losing season, the other a starter for a No. 2-ranked powerhouse aimed at repeating as national champion.
Both went down with knee injuries before Mark Mangino's eyes at Nebraska — Oklahoma's Jason White in 2001 and Kansas reserve Jonas Weatherbie.
But while White's injury helped dent the Sooners' national title hopes and Weatherbie's merely erased a tiny glimmer of hope that the Jayhawks could score an upset, each hurt Mangino like a punch to the throat.
injury takes second quarterback of season
By Jason King The Kansas City Star
LINCOLN, Neb. — The day Jonas Weatherbie spent five years preparing for ended in 5 seconds Saturday. Or maybe it was less than that.
It's not exactly clear how long
it takes an anterior crucible ligament to tear. What's certain is that it hurts — bad. Weatherbie, Kansas' quarterback, found that out the hard way in the Jay hawks' 45-7 loss to Nebraska.
"Jonas' career ended here today," KU coach Mark Mangino said.
Weatherbie completed just two of nine passes in last week's 64-0 loss to K-State. And though his numbers weren't much better against the Cornhuskers, completing three of nine passes, Weatherbie looked brilliant in the early stages of the game.
Jayhawks applauded by Cornhusker fans
By Rick Plumlee The Wichita Eagle
LINCOLN, Neb. — As Kansas trudged off the field Saturday, hundreds of Nebraska fans leaned over the railing to applaud the Jayhawks. More Husker fans did the same as they lined a pathway to KU's locker room underneath the stadium.
Except this time, whether intended or not, that applause was a much needed spark of goodness for the Jayhawks on an otherwise dreary day.
Nothing new. Nebraska fans do that for all visiting teams.
offensive line. His finest moment occurred when he lofted a 50-yard pass into the out-stretched hands of senior receiver Byron Gasaway for the jayhawks only score.
Weatherbie
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
But with 4:45 left in the first quarter, he was knocked to the turf and did not get up. Just when everything else was finally coming together for Weatherbie, his knee was coming apart.
He had suffered an athlete's worst nightmare — an anterior cruciate ligament tear in his right knee. In most cases the injury is season-ending but for Weatherbie it also finished his career.
"He was going to seize the moment," Mangino told reporters. "And that's exactly
"After five years in our program, he was going to go after it,and it's unfortunate for Jonas."
Mark Mangino Kansas football coach
what he was doing; he was seizing the moment. After five years in our program, he was going to go after it, and it's unfortunate for Jonas."
Weatherbie did not speak to reporters after the game. He just walked to the bus, aided by a pair of crutches. Instead his teammates were left to talk about replacing a fallen starter. The scene was reminiscent of the one three weeks earlier, when Weatherbie told reporters that the team could go on despite the loss of Whittimore.
Only this time it was Luke
and freshman Greg Heaggans answering the questions and assuring reporters that the Jayhawks weren't through yet.
Luke and Heaggans, who had previously been used to return punts and kickoffs, shared the snaps in Weatherbie's absence, sometimes during the same offensive series.
"Ever since I've been cleared, I've taken the mentality that the guy in front of me is going to go down," he said.
Luke, who recently returned from injury, told reporters that replacing injured players is a part of football.
Whittemore hasn't been ruled out for Saturday's game against Oklahoma State, but Luke will likely start if Whittemore cannot. Heaggans will also see time, Mangino said.

sion, fellow second-year freshman Greg Heaggins received an opportunity to run the offense.
Weatherbie looked like he'd finally figured out the college game after four-plus years as a backup. He almost looked like he could make the game competitive, especially against a Nebraska team that hasn't been as dominant this season as in past years.
Unfortunately for Weatherbie and the Jayhawks, what looked like a promising recovery after last week's 64-0 loss to Kansas State and the game of Weatherbie's life turned into the quarter — and end — of his career.
Late in the first period, Weatherbie was hit while scrambling and fell to the turf. He was helped off the field and laid on the trainers' table to receive medical attention, having torn his right anterior cruciate ligament.
Run is the operative word, as Heaggans rushed for four yards on second-and-11 before being replaced by Luke. In Heaggans four possessions as quarterback, he didn't throw a pass and rushed eight times for 11 yards. An option quarterback in high school. Heaggans added quarterback to his college résumé after already having spent time as wide receiver, defensive back and kick returner.
Luke took over as quarterback for the final play of the drive, but when Kansas regained posses-
As electrifying as Heaggans has been on the kick return team — he holds the Kansas single-season record for return yards with 659 — it was shocking to see him behind center. Nebraska's defense quickly adjusted, though, realizing Kansas had no intention of throwing the ball while Heaggans was at quarterback. Kansas went three-and-out on two of those drives. Heaggans lost a fumble on another and Luke took
over on third down on the final possession.
Luke received most of the playing time after Weatherbie's injury, finishing 7 of 22 for 79 yards and two interceptions. His performance was eerily similar to his statistics against Kansas State, when he was 7-of-18 passing for 74 yards and an interception. He showed a strong arm against Nebraska, but little touch, as he routinely overthrew wide receivers.
Unless Heaggans learns the offense — and remembers how to throw — this week, Luke will be the default starter against Oklahoma State, which is best for the Jayhawks. A one-dimensional team can't win a Big 12 game, even at home. Starting Luke gives Kansas its best chance to finish the season with a win and to have an experienced backup for Bill Whittemore next year.
Maybe I wasn't wrong after all.

Veteran's Day honors heroes
By Nathan Dayani
ndayani@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
New military recruits face a challenge unique to their generation they have to prepare for combat by learning from leaders who lack combat experience, a retired Marine Corps officer told a group of recruits yesterday.
Maj. Gen. Clayton Comfort, a 1953 University of Kansas graduate, returned to his alma mater yesterday for the 48th annual Veteran's Day and spoke to an audience of about 130 U.S. military recruits at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
The Arnold Air Society, a service organization for Air Force ROTC cadets, sponsored the speech and a 24-hour vigil at the Vietnam Memorial on campus.
Because most mentors of new recruits haven't been involved in a major war, new recruits should read up on war history and strategy. Comfort said.
"It's most likely that the men you encounter did not have much combat experience," he said.
Comfort said insightful leaders of the U.S. armed forces, such as Gen. George S. Patton and former president Harry Truman, made sound military decisions because they were well-read.
Ankur Rughani, Topeka sophomore and Army ROTC member, said Comfort's speech helped him understand the importance and implications of a career in the military.
"It gives you a chance to reflect," he said. "Events like these help you get the big picture."
Comfort ended his presentation by lighting a torch in homage to American war veterans. The torch then was taken to the vigil at the Vietnam Memorial on campus.
Patrick Godinez, Wichita senior and Air Force ROTC member, guarded the torch and said he
"I just hope that whether or not they agree with why these men were there, they should respect the fact that they fought to protect what we all have."
Patrick Godinez Wichita senior and Air Force ROTC member
hoped students would appreciate the sacrifices veterans had made fighting abroad.
"I just hope that whether or not they agree with why these men were there, they should respect the fact that they fought to protect what we all have," he said.
Godinez, a second-generation American, said he was respected the progress different races had made in the armed forces.
"It makes me very proud that immigrant families are ready to stand guard for the country," he said.
Veteran's Day traces its origins to Armistice Day, which ended World War I on Nov. 11, 1918. The war, which began in 1914, killed more than 8 million Europeans and more than 100,000 Americans, said Donald Stephenson, lecturer in history.
Stephenson said many historians considered that war to be the first modern war and a precursor to the intense, mechanical warfare that characterized World War II.
President Dwight Eisenhower signed a bill in 1954 that proclaimed Nov. 11 to be Veteran's Day. Although the day moved to the fourth Monday of October in 1968, Congress in 1978 returned the observance to its traditional date.

Student recovering from fall
By Michelle Burhenn mburhenn@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
A 19-year-old University of Kansas student who fell two stories from a room in McCollum Hall Sunday morning remained in fair condition yesterday, according to a hospital official.
Vanessa Buess, Wichita freshman and Jayhawker Towers resident, was taken by air ambulance after she fell from a friend's fifth-floor room to the roof of the second-floor lobby.
Brett Arnold, Kansas City, Kan., freshman, said all his friends except Buess had left around 7 a.m. when he left the room to go to the bathroom.
When he returned,he saw Buess sitting on his windowsill, Arnold said.
"As I walked over to approach her, she slipped down," he said. "Instead of catching the ledge outside the window, she fell two stories."
He said when he looked down at her, she seemed to be in a lot of pain.
"I asked her if she was OK, and she said she didn't know," he said. "Her full body was soaked in blood."
Arnold said girls who lived on the third floor climbed out of their window onto the roof to help Buess, then he went down to the roof to assist her.
Arnold said he had no doubt the correct decision was to move Buess, because she assured him that she had no head or neck injuries.
Arnold said he asked Buess how she felt, and she replied that she was in pain and wanted to get off the roof and back into the building.
"You could tell she was in a lot of pain, but I was just trying to figure out what was wrong with her and what was hurting her," he said.
Arnold said the ambulance arrived and took her to the Lied Center parking lot where she was then taken by air ambulance to the University of Kansas Medical Center.
Maj. Chris Keary of KU Public Safety Office said Arnold told police alcohol might have contributed to the accident.

Student officers try out new online enrollment
By Molly Gise mgise@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
A handful of University of Kansas students witnessed last week what administrators have been talking about for years—the arrival of online enrollment.
Academic Services is allowing students to see and test online enrollment in preparation for March enrollment.
Last week during their monthly meeting, members of the Student Governing Council at the University of Kansas Medical Center saw a demonstration of the PeopleSoft system.
which includes the online enrollment program.
Brendan Rice, student body co-president of the Student Governing Council, was one of the students who saw the demonstration. The Student Governing Council is a group of Med Center students similar to Student Senate.
The new system will end most of the problems that plagued the old enrollment method, Rice said.
"It will certainly eliminate the frustration and time associated with having to bounce from building to building and having to wait in line," he said.

Locks help keep bicycles safe
By Michelle Burhenn

Kansan staff writer
A cheap lock cost one KU student her $1,400 bike.
Jacqueline Kozisek, Stone Park, Ill. senior, lost her U-lock and resorted to using a simple combination lock last month — just in time for someone to walk off with her blue Raleigh mountain bike.
"I definitely have regrets about using that lock," she said. "It makes me sick to my stomach. The police officers said you can just take a paper clip to open one of those locks."
While Lawrence police Sgt. Mike Pattrick said more expensive locks were
usually better, he didn't recommend any particular type of lock.
"If you can invest your money in a high-dollar lock you'll be better off," he said.
Matt Minard, Sunflower Outdoor & Bike Shop employee and Lawrence senior, said that when he locked up his bike on campus every day, he saw a lot of cheap locks that were probably purchased at discount stores.
Minard said he recommended Ulocks, which cost from $30 to $65, for people who own expensive bikes or leave their bikes out overnight. To use the lock, the owner has to remove the tire to lock the entire frame to a bike rack.
Cable locks work well for people who

Minard said. Cable locks vary from $15
to $30.
"I've seen some locks up on campus that look easy to bust," Minard said. "I wouldn't recommend dropping less than $15 on a lock."
Both U-locks and cable locks come in a variety of thicknesses and lengths, he said.

WORLD iraqi parliament rejects resolution on weapons
BAGHDAD, Iraq — Iraqi lawmakers denounced a tough, new U.N. resolution on weapons inspections yesterday as dishonest, provocative and worthy of rejection — despite the risk of war. But parliament said it ultimately would trust whatever President Saddam Hussein decides.
One after the other, senior lawmakers rejected the resolution, the latest in a long effort to ensure Iraq scraps its weapons of mass destruction. This time, however, the United States and Britain have made clear they will attack Iraq if it does not fully comply.
Saddam has used parliament's action as cover for difficult decisions in the past, and harsh rhetoric does not necessarily mean parliament will reject the proposal. Saddam ordered parliament to recommend a formal response, and lawmakers were expected to vote on recommendations for the Iraqi leadership today.
According to the resolution, Iraq has until Friday to accept or reject the resolution, approved unanimously last week by the U.N. Security Council.
If Saddam fails to follow through, a Pentagon plan calls for more than 200,000 troops to invade Iraq.
Israeli troops invade Palestinian refugee camp
JERUSALEM—Dozens of Israeli tanks swept into a Palestinian refugee camp in the northern West Bank early today. Palestinian security officials said, as Israel responded to a Palestinian shooting rampage that killed five people, including a mother and her two young sons.
Yesterday in the second straight day of violence to take children's lives, the 2-year-old Palestinian boy was killed as he played ball in the Gaza town of Rafah. Palestinians said Israeli soldiers fired the shots, but Israel said its forces had returned fire and knew of no casualties.
No immediate clashes or injuries were reported in the Israeli incursion, and it did not appear that the operation was fully under way, security officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity.
The refugee camp is thought to be a hotbed of the Al Aqsa Martyrs' Brigade, a militia with ties to Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat's Fatah movement, which claimed responsibility for Sunday's shooting in the nearby communal farm of Kibbutz Metzer — a community that symbolized Jewish-Arab coexistence.
STATE Kline officially appointed new attorney general
OLATHE — A count of provisional ballots in Johnson County yesterday widened Republican Phill Kline's narrow lead in the attorney general's race, leading one GOP official to declare victory even as Kline himself declined to call the race over.
"I'm waiting until the secretary of state certifies, but the numbers look very good for us now," Kline said.
The gap between Kline and Biggs appeared to grow to 4,166 votes yesterday, with results from 77 of 105 counties certified.
With Kline's lead past 4,000, it seemed unlikely that provisional ballots in the remaining 28 counties would erase his lead, even though Shawnee and Sedgwick counties, which had about 2,400 provisional ballots in all, had yet to certify their results.

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN - 3A
Students look to sublease apartments for spring
By Matt Stumpff
mstumpff@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
When the winter months arrive, subleasing announcements begin to fill up University bulletin boards.
Reasons for subleasing include students leaving to study abroad, transferring to another school or simply wanting a new place to live in Lawrence next semester.
Whether students succeed in finding someone can depend on a variety of factors.
Megan Nordeen, Milwaukee junior, said she didn't think she would have much trouble finding someone to sublease and had already received several inquiries since Friday, when she began the searching process.
"We have a nice house and we're really close to campus," said Nordeen, who will be studying in Ireland next semester. "We also have really cheap rent."
The department of student housing lets residents out of their housing agreements if they study abroad or graduate at semester, said Diana Robertson, associate director of residence life. However, residents must pay daily fees and 25 percent of the remaining contract if they leave housing as a result of withdrawing from the University of Kansas. Subleasing
is not an option for residence halls. Robertson said.
Tricia Roberts, Joplin junior, said her roommate would be left with two new roommates because she and another resident were deciding to sublease. Roberts said she could tell her remaining roommate wasn't happy with the change.
"She hasn't said anything specifically, but you can just kind of tell in her actions," Roberts said.
"Like, when we have people come to look at the house, it seemed like she tried to point out the bad aspects of living here."
Some tenants struggle to find someone to sublease their residence, said Michelle Patterson, leasing agent for Master Plan Management.
Patterson said it was the tenant's responsibility to advertise for a sublease and that subleasing fees varied by management company.
She also recommended that tenants don't transfer their security deposits for a sublease. Patterson said many tenants transfer the deposit to the new renter to encourage them to sublease, but if the new resident causes damage it will then be taken out of the original resident's security deposit.

Speaker confronts role of stereotypes

Jon Hockman, CEO and founder of Dream Dare Do, speaks about the role of stereotypes in American society to students as part of Hate Out Week. Hockman's speech last night was the first in a series of lectures presented by the Multicultural Resource Center and the Office of Multicultural Affairs.

"Somebody once told me I could burn in hell because I was gay," Jon Hockman told a group of students last night.
Hockman, a motivational speaker who lives in Washington, D.C., addressed the role stereotypes play in people's lives.
"We live in a world where social identity is everywhere around us," he said. "Stereotypes are woven into the fabric of humanity and American culture."
Hockman demonstrated this influence of stereotypes and prejudice in American culture by asking everyone to list five names of prominent people in different ethnic, racial and religious categories.
Hockman had the students with five prominent white Americans, five prominent white male Americans and then five prominentwhite female Americans. By the time Hockman instructed the group to name figures in minority categories, such as five prominent Jewish or Muslim Americans,the students were struggling to name one or two.
"On a college campus, you can really find diversity." Hockman said. "It may not jump out, but we really need to dig deep in order to grow tolerance and appreciation."
Hockman's speech at the Kansas Room in
the Kansas Union was the first in a series of Hate Out Week events. The Multicultural Resource Center, the Office of Multicultural Affairs and other campus groups are coordinating the week's events in an effort to promote awareness of diversity, said Santos Núñez, program director for the Multicultural Resource Center.
The Diversity Peer Education Team is one student group helping organize the week's events. Katie Dilks, Ames, Iowa, senior and
member of the organization, said she was disappointed that only 11 students attended the speech. She said Monday nights were busy for students and that student apathy may have been a factor.
"Like ton said, people are scared of what they might find out about themselves," she said. "They may be kind of interested, but they are too scared to come alone."

Soon-to-be graduates need to fill out forms
By Kyle Ramsey

Kansan staff writer
Students planning to graduate in December should ensure the proper paperwork is completed before mailing graduation announcements.
Applications for degrees are due Dec. 2. The form is required in order to receive a diploma, said Marla Herron, assistant registrar.
The applications are available in the registrar's office, as well as the offices of graduation counselors in the College of Liberal Arts and Science and all professional schools.
Although individual schools have recognition ceremonies for December graduates, no commencement ceremony — the traditional walk through the Campanile down Mount Oread and into Memorial Stadium — caps the fall semester. The annual commencement ceremony, which takes place in May, is open to students who graduated in the summer, fall and spring semesters.
The University sends informa
tion about commencement to all students who graduate in the summer, fall and spring semesters, said Jeff Weinberg, assistant to Chancellor Robert Hemenway.
The information packet includes information about caps and gowns and commencement.
But some students don't wait for the University's queue before joining the commencement party.
Bryan Volk said he didn't want to wait for graduation before walking down the hill. The Lawrence senior has participated in the commencement walk twice since he's been at the University.
Worried about getting caught, Volk said he was cautious the first time he fraudulently walked down the hill with friends.
"I was afraid someone would call me a faker," he said. "I wouldn't have anything to tell them other than you're right."
Volk will graduate in December but hasn't decided whether to participate in a third Commencement. Diplomas should be available in Strong Hall by mid-March, Herron said.

PERSPECTIVES
See Second City performance experience future of SNL
I did something exciting and new Saturday, something I'd tried before but could never quite get the hang of.
I watched Saturday Night Live. More significantly, I was amused and entertained by it.
I was curious about how, when and why Saturday Night Live began to be funny again, and I soon discovered its secret.
The quality of Saturday Night Live depends on where it is drawing its cast from.
Now in its 28th season, Saturday Night Live is a cultural icon. But for a while, it was a lackluster icon.
COMMENTARY
When I first began watching new SNL episodes it was exciting, mainly because I was about 12 at the time.
Lauren Stewart
opinion@kansan.com
But, alas, by then the once-ground-breaking show was being compared to a quickly-sinking ship, and the funny, inspired scenes from the 70s, 80s and early 90s were nowhere to be found.
Chris Farley was no longer in a van down by the river eating government cheese; Adam Sandler and Opera Man had left the building; and Hans and Franz weren't there to pump you up.
Instead, SNL viewers ended up with the Spartan cheerleaders and Goat Boy. Saying these sketches were merely dull is a blatant understatement.
Watching the pointless, boring scenes was like discovering another level of hell.
But I think I've stumbled upon the secret of the show's decline in the mid- 90s.
For some reason, almost no recruits were cast from The Second City, one of North America's leading theatrical institutions for comedy and satire.
SNL legends like Bill Murray, Gilda Radner and Dan Akyroyd, all of whom were greatly influential in the show's beginnings and first success, got their start at Second City.
Based in Chicago, other Second City alumni include Chris Farley, Mike Myers, Joan Rivers, Martin Short and John Belushi.
When producers had to rebuild the SNL cast after the disastrous mid-1990s seasons, they didn't choose just anyone—they selected Second City members.
These people don't only know comedy. They are comedy.
Now, Second City alumni Tina Fey, Horatio Sanz, Rachel Dratch and Amy Poehler play major roles on the show.
The addition of Second City members correlates to the rise in quantity and quality of funny sketches on Saturday Night Live, which benefits all who love good comedy.
This week at KU, we have the opportunity to experience Second City live, and maybe see the future of SNL.
Student Union Activities, where I spend all of my time, will present The Second City and its hilarious and satirical sketches, songs and cutting-edge improvisation tonight at 8 p.m. at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
Tickets are $7 with a KU ID or $10 without a KU ID, a small price to pay for good comedy.
SUA is also sponsoring an Amateur Comedy Night tomorrow from 7-9 p.m. in the Hawks Nest, and will award a $50 prize to the winner.
So come out, have some fun, and laugh a little or a lot. Celebrate the magic of improv comedy — without any Goat Boys.

Protesters need to research, think critically about causes
The front page of Friday's University Daily Kansan provided an excellent example of the kind of attention-seeking escapades practiced by leftist groups who ignore facts and have too much time on their hands. The story "Environs' tree theatrics" was aptly titled — theatrics is exactly what it was.
The KU Environs members, swathed in tree garland and dressed as businessmen with chain saws, chased each other in front of Strong Hall on Thursday.
This was supposed to bring attention to Environ's claim that Boise corporation, a supplier of paper for the state and the University of Kansas, destroyed oldgrowth forests.
But the evidence indicates that the Enviros are full of hot air.
According to the Kansan story, the corporation's Web site states that it actually uses very little old-growth forest wood and that Boise is decreasing that amount.
An Oct. 4 Kansan story ("Environs challenge University's paper supply") reported that Environs rejected Boise's claims on the grounds that the company's definition of old-growth forests was different from their own.

COMMENTARY
Audrey Snyder
opinion@hansan.com
The blaming of corporations for real or imagined problems seems to be a national epidemic.
Wal-Mart is an off-targeted company, as is apparent from recent politics in
Lawrence surrounding a possible second Wal-Mart store at Sixth and Wakarusa streets.
Liberals in other small towns across the country try to prevent new Wal-Mart stores as well. Those who want to protect local business claimed another Wal-Mart would take business from small,
local business, and it would ruin the character of Lawrence.
According to an Oct. 24 story in The Lawrence Journal World, the planning commission declined to rezone the area for Wal-Mart, citing concerns about increased traffic and a lack of need for a second store.
The champions of local businesses should have realized that there weren't many local businesses that carried the same kinds of goods as Wal-Mart.
The protesters argued that Wal-Mart was evil because the corporation encouraged globalization. The environmentalists whined in general.
The character of Lawrence is defin- able by those who live here.
Many of those people want a second Wal-Mart and would shop there. The protesters should realize that Wal-Mart sells goods more cheaply than other stores and employs people. These practices benefit those with low and fixed incomes. The environmentalists probably even use the recycling center provided by the Wal-Mart store on Iowa Street.
Those who think that a company is doing something wrong should look into the facts before they make fools of themselves.
Snyder is a Shawnee senior in political science.

Enrollment CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
The program looked easy to use, said Rice, a fourth-year medical student who graduated from KU in 1999. Students today are familiar with online systems and computers, he said.
"Back when I started in '95, the Web was just starting to take off," Rice said. "Now we're used to filling out those forms and using computers."
Bob Turvey, student administration project manager for the system that includes online enrollment, said that faculty and staff would need the most help adapting.
"We're not planning on much training for the students." Turvey said. "I don't think they'll need it."
Part of the improvements with online enrollment include changing how student enrollment appointments are scheduled. Student enrollment
appointments are determined first by class, and within each class a mathematical formula was used to decide by KUID which students went first. With the new system, enrollment appointments will be determined first by number of credit hours and then by grade point average, Turvey said.
While online enrollment will be available soon, the rest of the PeopleSoft system, such as online grade books and financial aid, will have to wait a little longer, he said.
PeopleSoft is part of the effort to create an online student portal, a one-stop place for students to check their e-mail, enroll, store addresses and phone numbers and review their personal academic and financial information.
"Enrollment is frankly a very small piece of this overall project," Turvey said. "But it's the one everyone sees. It's the one that everyone wants to see and the one most people are concerned
The road to online enrollment has been more difficult than anticipated, Turvey said.
about."
"Why has this taken so long? It's huge," Turvey said. "It's been a very long, hard trip, and we're not there yet."
But Turvey said that a no-frills version of PeopleSoft, including online enrollment, would be available for students to use next semester. More features will be added as time and resources allow.
Rice said he had been hearing about online enrollment since his sophomore or junior year. But he said it was worth the wait.
"It's more important to have a system that works," Rice said. "I'd be more patient so the bugs can be worked out rather than worry about having it sooner than later."
Students interested in seeing a demonstration of the online enrollment system can e-mail Turvey at bturvey@ku.edu.

It would be difficult to steal a bike with either of these locks," he said. "You would probably need tools and more than one person."
Minard also suggested that bikers pay close attention not only to the type of lock, but also to where they are locking up their bikes. Many bikes are stolen when a thief cuts through a wooden post or tree to take the bike.
Patrick said that if taking safety precautions didn't deter bike theft, the next line of defense was a serial number.
"Knowing your serial number or having it recorded helps us immensely in locating your bike," Patrick said. "It's the best way for us to match up a bicycle to its owner."
Each bike comes with its own unique serial number that police can use to track a stolen bike if it is recovered.

Eric Chenowith — Kansas Center, 1997-2000
After being selected in the second round of the 2001 NBA draft by the New York Knicks, Chenowith was cut during training camp. He then was selected sixth overall in the inaugural NBDL draft by the Greenville (South Carolina) Groove. Chenowith was traded in mid-season to the Huntsville (Alabama) Flight and finished the season averaging 10 points, seven rebounds and one block per game.
The center then traveled overseas to finish the year with Pau-Ortez of the French Pro-Am league. Although he averaged five points and four rebounds per game in eight contests with the team, Chenowith helped the squad win the French League Cup. This season, Chenowith signed with the Los Angeles Clippers, was traded to the Seattle Supersonics and after being cut by Seattle was signed again by Los Angeles. Despite the re-signing, Chenowith was finally waived at the end of the preseason by the Clippers.

"It remains to be seen how people coming off the bench are going to be able to step up for us," he said. "You don't have to be a nuclear physicist to figure out which we think are going to start. It would be pretty safe to say that those five guys are far ahead of everybody else."

Michael's work paid off she is third in the conference in hitting efficiency (.371) and second on the team in blocks, averaging 1.01 per game.
Michaels, who was the Kansas Class 2A Player of the Yearafterleading Wathena High School to a third-place finish in the 2000 state tournament, started five matches toward the end of last year. Coach Ray Bechard said he saw flashes of her potential during that time,
Lima is also on the conference leaderboards, tied for ninth in kills (3.71 per game), fifth in points (4.76), and eighth in blocks (1.08) and service aces (0.36). She leads Kansas in kills and blocks and is tied with Rome for the lead with eight double-doubles.
"I don't know if anyone's made a more noticeable jump between the first and second year than Ashley Michaels," Bechard said.

aggressive player who would bring energy to the team after making great plays. Morningstar also said that because of Lima's experience with her club team in Brazil, she adjusted well to Big 12 volleyball as a freshman.
"Her serve is very good, and her back-row attacks are a part of our offense, too." Bechard said. "I think that's what's most impressive about her is her all around versatility. She's very capable in all areas of the game."
Last spring, Lima transferred to KU from the University of Sant' Anna in Sao Paul, Brazil, where she led her under-19 club team to a second-place national finish in 2001. She was chosen to play on the 2000 Sao Paulo selection team.
The first part of the season will test Kansas' strength. With a little magic beyond the 8 Ball, the Jayhawks will enjoy success in the rematches to come.
Lima said volleyball in the United States was more detailed and slower than in Brazil,

I agree with the answer again — "Cannot Predict Now."
Lima and Michael's presence alone in the middle has already taken pressure off their teammates, including junior outside bitter Sarah Rome, who said the duo created problems for opposing middle blockers.

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN - 7A
Mangino says a winning program isn't impossible
ByJohn Domoney
jdomoney@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
When Kansas football coach Mark Mangino left his position as offensive coordinator at the University of Oklahoma last December to take the reigns of the Jayhawk program, he knew there would be dark days before he could turn around the fortunes of Kansas football.
Mangino was inheriting a program that had not had a winning season since 1995 after leaving a Sooner team that was headed for its second straight 10-win season.
In yesterday's Big 12 Conference teleconference, Mangino
said this season had been trying but was filled with encouraging signs.
"Nobody likes losing," Mangino said. "I don't like it, our players don't, our coaches don't, but I really believe that our players see the difference in our program right now, even though it hasn't translated into wins just yet."
Mangino has coached Kansas to a 2-9 record heading into Saturday's finale against Oklahoma State. The first-year coach has had to deal with numerous injuries and dismissals on the team.
Before the season began on Aug. 31 against Iowa State, wide receiver Harrison Hill ended his
career because of chronic dehydration complications after he was granted a sixth year of eligibility by the NCAA. Hill was on pace to become the leading receiver in Kansas football history.
During the Jayhawks' loss to Iowa State, 45-3, Kansas also lost sophomore linebacker Banks Floodman for the season to an anterior cruciate ligament injury in his knee.
The last three games have been particularly difficult for the Jayhawks, with Missouri, Kansas State and Nebraska outscoring Kansas 145-19.
Not only has Kansas lost six games in a row, but it has also had two quarterbacks — junior quarterback Bill Whittemore and senior quarterback Jonas Weatherbie—suffer serious knee injuries.
Whittemore, who was the team's leading passer and second leading rusher, left the Missouri game on Oct. 26 in the third quarter with an injury to his medial collateral ligament in his left knee. Weatherbie started the next two games against Kansas State and Nebraska, but he was lost for the season Saturday with a tear to the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee.
Between dealing with injuries and the nuances that come with building a program, Mangino has not had as much time as he would have liked to focus on the action on the field.
"I would say when you're a head coach, in my situation here, there are so many things that need attention that you have to spend a great deal of time working on issues that have nothing to do with X's and O's," Mangino said. "X's and O's are really the fun part of the game, and I like to spend time doing that, but there's so many issues that you have to deal with."
Mangino has made several references in the past few weeks to the older players that have only known losses while playing for Kansas. This has led Mangino to compare the rebuilding job he has here to the one he had at Kansas State in 1991, where the Wildeats' record was 8-46-1 in the five years
before Mangino went to Manhattan.
"We're like Kansas State, we don't have much of a tradition here." Mangino said. "So we have to talk about the present and the future and what we're going to build here and how we're doing it."
Mangino said he thought the Jayhawks could become a winning program, the same as Kansas State had done.
"I understand the job I tackled here and I feel good about it," Mangino said. "I think everything is going in the right direction with the exception of the wins column, and that will come."

This is to the person who called in about Duke sucking. Excuse me, but Duke doesn't belong in the same category as Mizzou. Mizzou sucks — you guys are just jalous of Mizzou.

If you hate KU so much, then why don't you crawl back to that piece-of-crap state called Missouri and live with the rest of the rednecks and hillbillies? Mizzou sucks.

Kansas men's basketball picked No.2 in preseason poll
The Associated Press
With five returning starters, Arizona was No.1 in The Associated Press preseason basketball poll yesterday for the third time in six years.
Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas all of the Big 12 held the next three spots in the poll,the third time one conference has had that many teams in the preseason top five.
Arizona, seventh in last season's final poll before reaching the NCAA tournament's round of 16, received 50 first-places votes and 1,773 points from the national media panel.
The Wildcats, who play at
Kanss on Jan. 25, were the preseason No.1 for the 1997-98 and 2000-01 seasons.
"We've never had the depth of athleticism that we have on this team," Arizona coach Lute Olson said, referring to the three seniors, five sophomores and four freshmen. "I think our teams have always been fun to watch, but this year we'll try to create even more havoc on the defensive end of the court. I think we go deep enough that we can do that at every position."
The Atlantic Coast Conference had the No.1 and 2 teams in last year's preseason poll in Duke and Maryland, which went on to win it all. The last preseason No.1
"I think we all have a chance to be very good. But those two,
on paper...you'd have to pick those guys above us."
Roy Williams Kansas basketball coach
team to win the national championship was Kentucky in 1995-96.
Arizona seniors Jason Gardner, Luke Walton and Richard Anderson also began their sophomore seasons at No.1.
"Just a couple of years ago we had the same expectations, so I'm used to all that," Walton said. "I
don't think it's going to be an extra burden on this team. We're into just having fun and playing basketball as much as we can. We're not going to let the hype get to us."
Kansas had 14 No. 1 votes and 1,715 points, while Oklahoma had six first-place votes.
The Atlantic Coast Conference is the only other league to have three teams in the preseason top five. In 1973-74, North Carolina State was No. 2, Maryland No. 4 and North Carolina No.5. In 1997-98, Duke, North Carolina and Clemson were third through fifth.
It is the 25th time since the first preseason poll, in 1961-62, that one conference has had at least
two teams in the top five.
Kansas coach Roy Williams agreed that the three Big 12 teams are going to be good. He just didn't think the order was correct.
"I think we all have a chance to be very good," Williams said. "But those two, on paper—you'd have to pick guys above us."
Pittsburgh, which received one first-place vote, was No. 5 in the preseason poll, with Duke, Florida, Alabama, Michigan State and Xavier completing the top 10.
Duke finished No.1 in last season's final poll for a record fourth straight year.
Oregon was 11th, followed by Mississippi State — the only
other team to receive a first-place votes — Maryland, UCLA, Connecticut, Georgia, Kentucky, Marquette, Missouri and Western Kentucky.
The last five ranked teams were Indiana, Gonzaga, Cincinnati, Minnesota and Tulsa.
The Southeastern Conference had the most teams with five, ranging from No. 7 Florida to No. 17 Kentucky. The Big 12 was next with four, while the Pac-10 and Big 10 had three each.
Fourteen of last year's preseason Top 25 weren't in the final poll of the season, including No. 5 UCLA.
The first regular-season poll will be released Nov.18.

Magic 8 Ball sees success in Kansas' schedule
With the men's basketball team starting its preseason last week, I want to take this time to predict some of the intriguing early season match-ups for the Jayhawks.
Why are these upcoming games interesting? Rematches.
I decided to throw away all the preseason magazine and newspaper articles to find a more scientific way of predicting the games.
After hours of searching in my closet, I pulled out my handy Magic 8 Ball. The toy that had once helped me predict my chances with the opposite sex would now serve a greater purpose.
The men's team marched all the way to the Final Four last year only to lose to the eventual national champion, Maryland. The Jayhawks then lost two starters, Drew Gooden and Jeff Boschee. With that said, Kansas looks solid with its starting five that features two potential NBA first-round draft picks in Nick Collison and Kirk Hinrich.
The first marque match-up for the Jayhawks will be a much-anticipated rematch with Holy Cross on Nov. 19. Last season Holy Cross gave Kansas fans quite a scare by almost defeating Kansas in the first round of the NCAA tournament. The game ended with the Jayhawks earning the victory, but Kansas fans will make sure that Holy Cross feels the wrath of Allen Fieldhouse.
I asked the Magic 8 Ball whether Holy Cross had a prayer against Kansas and with a quick shake I received my answer — "Don't Count On It."
Another rematch marked my second predictions pick.
KANSAN FILE PHOTO
Last year Oregon lost to Kansas in a fast-breaking, high-scoring affair that ended 104-86. This Midwest Regional Final game was hands down the most exciting game of the year.
This season, the Jayhawks will travel to Portland, Ore., on Dec. 7 where the Ducks wait for their chance to redeem last season's loss. The game features the dynamic duo of Oregon's Luke Jackson and Luke Ridnour who combined for 32 points per game last year. However, Kansas has its own duo of Hinrich and Collison, who combined for 30.4 points per game last season and will try to combat Jackson and Ridnour during the game.
I looked to the 8 Ball and asked if the Jackson and Ridnour duo would outplay Hinrich and Collison for the victory. The 8 Ball gave an intriguing answer — "Signs Point to Yes." I have to agree, because the Ducks will seek their revenge and, helped by home-court advantage, will narrowly hand the Jayhawks their first loss of the season.
41
Two weeks after the game against Oregon, Kansas will host yet another rematch. UCLA will march into town Dec. 21, looking for its second consecutive victory against Kansas in as many seasons. Even with Gooden scoring 22 points and hauling down 10 rebounds, the Jayhawks lost the game by 10 points last year.
My Magic 8 Ball has a difficult question for this game. Will the Jayhawks receive an early Christmas present with a late December win?
The Magic 8 Ball affirms my feelings by answering, "As I See It, Yes."
With that quick decision, it must have looked at the schedule and seen that the game is at Allen Fieldhouse. Again, Kansas plays at a different level at home and will win a close game.
The next game, against Arizona on

Despite blowout, coach Williams says team must improve

Kansan sportswriter
Kansas' men's basketball team scored 111 points, shot 62 percent for the game, made more than half its three-point attempts and had 10 different players score in last week's exhibition game against the EA Sports All-Stars.
Man, the Jayhawks have some work to do.
"We just didn't really push it," said coach Roy Williams. "We were horrible the other night running break. We had 18 points that we lost just on making bad passes. We can't have that kind of thing if we want to be a running team and if we want to be a team that can keep people on their heels."
The Jayhawks will get a final opportunity to polish their sneakers before the regular season begins. Kansas hosts Washburn at 7 ontion at Allen Fieldhouse in its last exhibition game. Williams said he saw a number of areas that needed improvement after last week's 111-94 win over the All-Stars.
"We've got to make sure our game Tuesday night is closer to the way we practice," Williams said.

Last week, former Kansas guard Adonis Jordan was welcomed back to Allen Fieldhouse while playing for the EA Sports All-Stars.
Tonight another former Jayhawk will try to make his presence felt in his return to Lawrence.
Washburn guard John Crider was a member of the Jayhawks in 1999 and 2000, but left the team in 2000 and later transferred to Washburn, a Division II school. Last season he averaged 5.8 points per game while starting 14 of his 22 games with the Ichabods.
"John Crider is a great youngster, from instate, that we hoped would work out here," said Kansas coach Roy Williams. "We knew it was going to be difficult for him to start with, and John was just not very happy. As soon as he told me he was not very happy, I said well then, the best thing to do is see if we can find a place where

Middle blockers Josiane Lima and Ashley Michaels have put up impressive numbers since becoming starters this season. Michaels is third in the Big 12 in hitting efficiency, and Lima leads the Jayhawks in kills and blocks. The KU volleyball team is enjoying a strong season start with a 17-6 overall and its best conference record through 14 games (8-6).
Dynamic duo lead volleyball team

Kansan sportwriter
The Kansas volleyball squad (17-6 overall, 8-6 Big 12 Conference) is sixth in the Big 12 with its best-ever conference record through 14 games and is in position for a berth in the NCAA Tournament. Two of the reasons for this success are sophomore Ashley Michaels and freshman Josiane Lima — first-year starters at middle blocker.
Two people from different walks of life — one from a small town in the Midwest and another from a different side of the world — are helping a volleyball program to one of its best seasons ever.
"They're good volleyball players and good teammates, too," he said. "They're good student athletes, conscientious about their academics, who are wellliked and work very hard. They are very representative of what we want our program to be."
Coach Ray Bechard said the pair were what many coaches would want their players to be.

Soccer ends season without NCAA bid
It was a season of highs and lows for the Kansas women's soccer team.
By Daniel Berk dberk@kansan.com Kansan sports writer
The team beat Colorado and Oklahoma State, lost to Baylor — who were winless in the Big 12 Conference — and tied Nebraska, the Jayhawks' first non-loss against the Cornhuskers.
Glimpses of brilliance came from freshmen Jessica Smith, Kim Karfonta, Holly Ryder and Caroline Smith, who was named to the Big 12 Newcomer team.
Then three team members, seniors Nikki Wahle and Lindsay Hunting and junior Carmel Kaplinger, were suspended for two games for violating team rules.
Two more lows came during the postseason. Kansas (11-7-2 overall, 4-5-1 Big 12) outshot Nebraska in the conference tournament but lost 2-1. The Jayhawks also learned yesterday that they weren't selected for the NCAA Tournament.
"It was a good season, but it was definitely an inconsistent one," said head coach Mark Francis. "We did not win some games that we should have."
Even though this season didn't end with a second straight NCAA tournament appearance, potential is the word buzzing around the locker room.
Kansas returns its leading scorer, Caroline Smith, and its starting goalie, sophomore Meghan Miller.
All of the Jayhawks' forwards will be back next year and just one player in the midfield is a senior. There's plenty on the horizon with the incoming recruiting class being the team's best vet, Francis said.
"We have a strong nucleus returning," Francis said. "We have a lot of talent and should be very good next season."
The only place where Kansas will lose many players is on defense, with Brooke Jones, Brianna Valento and Wahle all seniors.
Those three and Hunting were Francis' first recruiting class, back in 1999 when the Jayhawks finished with their best record at the time, 8-10-1. Valento said a lot had changed since then.
"Every season, the recruiting gets better," Valento said. "Every girl that coach has brought in has been beneficial to our team in some way."
Just three teams from the Big 12 were chosen for the NCAA Tournament — Texas Texas A&M and conference champion Nebraska.
The Jayhawks' chances slipped away as they dropped their last four matches, including a 2-0 loss to rival Missouri.
"If we would have beaten Missouri and Nebraska, I think we would have been chosen," Francis said.
Valento, who will try her luck in the professional ranks next season, said that the team was headed in the right direction and would be a successful program in the future.

Comedy show pushes the right buttons to wow the crowd

Kansan writer
The hardest thing about sketch comedy is knowing which buttons to push, and which not to push, Joe Grazulis, music director for The Second City, Chicago's legendary comedy theatre, said.
"Every audience reacts differently," he said.
The group seemed to push all the right buttons last night, as they performed for an audience of about 220 at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union. The audience roared with laughter as actress Bridget Kloss, in character as a crotchety school teacher, picked members of the crowd to sing excerpts from the song "America the Beautiful." As one audience member looked to the floor in embarrassment, Kloss rose to the occasion.
"Look at me," she said, "I'm hot in a Golden Girls-way."
As a way to keep her act fresh through months of performing, Kloss said she drew inspiration from the audience. She said the most difficult thing

Town hall meeting defines diversity

The moderator of a "town hall" meeting on diversity in Hashinger Hall last night asked the group of gathered students what was the perfect environment to raise a child in.
There was a pause before Collins Wade, Monroe. La., junior answered.
"I would like my children to grow up in a room like this," he said.
The group attending the meeting was diverse — African-American, Jewish, Hispanic, Native American, gay and lesbian.
The meeting was scheduled as part of Hate Out Week, a week-long celebration of diversity sponsored by the Office of Multicultural Affairs and the Multicultural Resource Center.

Basketball fans park in Lot 90 before last night's game against Washburn. Students with a yellow parking pass should move their cars before 5:30 to avoid receiving a ticket or being towed.

On game nights, parking lots near Allen Fieldhouse are reserved for basketball season ticket holders or those willing to pay a $10 fee, making parking spaces readily available. Students who own yellow permits will only be allowed to park in those lots until 5:30 p.m.
For the seven weeknight home games this basketball season, fans will have parking priority over students going to class or the library.
Tickets for cars that aren't moved before 5:30 p.m. on game nights are $20 and towing is the parking department's last option, said Donna Hultine, director of parking services.
"It's a heated topic for me," said Chris Laird, Goddard senior, who has a yellow parking pass. Laird has an ROTC class several nights a week that meets until at least 7 p.m.
"We can't leave the colonel's class to move our cars." he said. "It's disrespectful."
Students have complained about the policy.
He said he got a ticket last year but was thankful he had never been towed.
Hultine said the department gave students some
time after 5:30 to move their cars before towing.
She said complaints were frequent at the beginning of basketball season because it caught students off-guard, but trailed off as the semester went on.
Hultine said fans had to pay for the privilege as well. She said members of the Williams Fund, a program for donors who help fund athletic scholarships, can purchase a season parking permit for $140. Yellow parking passes for students cost $85 annually.
Hultine said the University parking committee was exploring new options for student parking. Last night, Lot 34 east of the Computer Center was restricted solely for academic use.
The parking department will study the usage of Lot 34 throughout the basketball season. Last night's trial was in response to a student proposal asking the committee to protect parking for faculty, staff and student use.
Erika Massow, St. Louis senior, has a night class in Murphy Hall. She said she ordinarily walked to school, but didn't want to walk at night.
"I think it's a good idea but it depends where you're located on campus," Massow said of the trial lot. "But if I needed to be at Murphy and had to walk all the way down there, I wouldn't do it."

Allocation helps GRAs pay tuition
New program benefits graduate researchers advances University
By Erin Beaty
ebeatty@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
For the first time in KU history, a tuition assistance program for GRAs will be offered.
Paying tuition will be much easier next semester for 300 graduate research assistants at the University of Kansas.
The tuition assistance will be possible because of an allocation of $750,000 from the $8.6 million in revenue generated through the tuition increase this semester.
Vice Provost Richard Givens said the decision to assist GRAs was made partly because the competition for top-rate graduate students was strong, and most highly rated schools provided tuition assistance for their graduate students in doctoral programs.
"We constantly hear from our faculty that their PhD programs have trouble recruiting top graduate students because they get better offers from other schools," Givens said. "Among the items in those offers is the tuition assistance."
He said tuition assistance was already provided for GTAs and the new program would make it possible to assist GRAs as well. There are more than 600 GRAs at the University. While some GRAs' tuition is paid for by the grants that employ them, others have to pay their own "We constantly hear from our faculty that their PhD programs have trouble recruiting top graduate students because they get better offers from other schools." Richard Givens Vice provost
Nicole Lynn Bowers, Lawrence graduate student and research assistant in molecular biology, said the assistance would not affect her because her tuition was already covered by grants. She said it would be a helpful change for other students who had to pay their own tuition.
"I think it's great because it's hard enough to get through school doing your research," she said. "And graduate tuition is pretty expensive, especially if you're out of state."
KU Center for Research officials estimated that the new tuition assistance program would help about 300 GRAs whose tuition is not covered by grants.
Erin Thaler, Marietta, Ga., graduate student and research assistant in education administration, did not know about the University's plans to financially assist GRAs, but was pleased to hear about it.
"We deserve it — we're already doing a lot of work here, and paying tuition on top of it," she said.
Provost David Shulenburger said the tuition assistance program would benefit both graduate researchers and the University by attracting high-quality graduate students and helping KU progress toward its goal of ranking among the top 25 public research institutions.

Internship fair could help students gain experience
Students can help further their careers tomorrow at an internship open house.
Representatives from eight companies, including Spring and Philip Morris, will be accepting resumes and handing out information about internships.
In tough economic times, students must find internships to stay competitive, said Mary Andrade Carlson, assistant director of University Career and Employment Services and an organizer of the event.
"Employers have the opportunity to be more choosy with their candidates," she said. "They're really looking for candidates who have those experiences."
The open house will feature a panel of two students and one former student who will speak about their internship experiences. Students also can attend a workshop on designing and pitching their own internships.
Career Services and AIESEC are co-sponsors of the event.
The open house will take place 3 to 5:30 p.m. in the Burge Union. The event is free.

Harvard cancels speaker after incendiary comment
BOSTON (AP) — After student complaints, Harvard University said yesterday it had canceled a reading by an Irish poet who compared U.S.-born settlers in the West Bank to Nazis and said they should be "shot dead."
Tom Paulin, an Oxford University lecturer, was scheduled to appear tomorrow as part of the English Department's Morris Gray Lecture series.
But in an e-mail to English majors Tuesday, department chair Lawrence Buell said the reading had been canceled "by mutual consent of the poet and the English Department."

Mizzou shirt spurs copyright debate
By Kelly McNearney
kmcnearney@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Some KU students are seeking exclusive rights to profit from a t-shirt slogan expressing KU students' disgust for University of Missouri athletics.
Aaron Johnson, Plymouth, Minn. senior, said he was the only person in Lawrence authorized to sell shirts emblazoned with the slogan "muck fizzou."
Johnson said his business partner, Jonathan Gordon, Munster, Ind. alumnus, had a pending trademark on the slogan.
But the United States Patent and Trademark Office showed no record of muck fizzou as a trademarked slogan.
Gordon said he applied for the trademark with the United States Register of Copyrights in Oct. 2001 and was granted the trademark, but that the slogan was not yet copyrighted.
"It hasn't been approved yet because I guess the process takes a while with the government," Gordon said. "But I applied for the trademark, and that gives me
the authority to claim it as intellectual property."
Other vendors said the slogan could not be copyrighted.
Colin Rohlfing, St. Louis senior, is selling muck fizzou shirts this year.
His attorney and father, James Rohlfing, said Gordon and Johnson could not copyright the slogan because they could not prove the phrase was theirs.
"Copyright protection is available to the author of an original work." Iames Robliffing said.
Rohfling said the work also had to have some aspect of originality and creativity in order to be protected.
According to the United States Copyright Office, titles, names, short phrases and slogans cannot be copyrighted.
Johnson said because he and Gordon were the first to apply for copyright, they were granted the ability to place "TM" on their shirts.
If the copyright is approved, they will be permitted to place an "R" for registered trademark on the shirts.
Gordon sold the shirts for three years before passing the business on to Johnson.
out of muck fizzou," Gordon said.
Johnson will graduate this year and is training his brother, Todd Johnson, Plymouth, Minn, freshman, so that the brand name will continue to be in the hands of a KU student.
Johnson has agreements with The Crossing, 618 W. 12th St., and Naismith Hall to sell the shirts at those locations.
He sells the shirts at The Crossing on Thursdays and Fridays and outside Naismith Hall on home basketball game days and is the only vendor allowed to do so.
Gordon said he forwarded his copyright application and a letter from his attorneys to the other vendors, including Jock's Nitch Sporting Goods, 837 Massachusetts St.
A spokesman for Jock's Nitch declined to comment for this story. Gordon said taking the case to court would be too expensive to pursue.

Student campaign aims to honor MLK
By Lindsay Hanson
Ihanson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A group of students are putting together a celebration they think will honor Martin Luther King. Jr. more properly than celebrations of past years.
The Concerned, Active and Aware Students program, or CAAS,a division of the Center for Community Outreach, has spearheaded a campaign to get Martin Luther King, Jr. Day events in Lawrence to converge upon the Kansas Union.
The group is planning a full day to honor the late civil rights activist. Tentative activities include painting a mural on campus, building hygiene packets for donation to a local homeless shelter, hearing speakers and participating in non-violence training.
Fouzia Haq, co-coordinator for CAAS, said the University's Martin Luther King, Jr. Day events in previous years at the Lied Center hadn't been geared toward attracting students
"I don't think it's visible enough, and I don't think students are in it enough," she said.
So, this year's events will cater to all ages, especially to students in elementary schools.
"It's a pretty important holiday and most schools get it off, so that means most students aren't getting any information about Martin Luther King," said Amanda Flott, co-coordinator for CAAS.
Flott said the Boys and Girls Club of Lawrence had already committed to bussing elementary students to campus Jan. 20.
Elementary students aren't the only ones who are invited, she said. University students, faculty and parents will be welcome as well.
CAAS recently secured a $3,000 Matching Grant from the federal government to fund the day's events. Student Senate has met a chunk of the need by allocating the group $1,250 this year to apply toward the program. The total fund raising goal with the grant is $8,000.

Decision upheld: Greeks can run for off-campus Senate seats
By Caleb Nothwehr
cnothwehr@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
When the next Student Senate elections roll around in April, the Greek community of the University of Kansas will be represented by off-campus senators thanks to a referendum upheld by the University Judicial Board yesterday.
In addition to the two seats available to them through the
Interfraternity Council and Panhellenic Association, students living in greek housing will now be able to run for any of the five off-campus senator seats.
Referendum B, which the student body votedin favor of last April, came under fire last spring from some student senators who said supporters of the referendum had not followed proper procedure while introducing the legislation. Kyle Browning, last year's
student body vice president, originally failed the referendum.
But after disputes between the outgoing and incoming administrations during the last Senate meeting of Spring 2002, the decision was left to the Judicial Board.
Three KU law professors Stephen Mazza, Jan Sheldon and Rick Levy—were members of the board reviewing the referendum. They met and handed down their decision this week.
The text announcing the decision stated the referendum should be upheld because minor errors in introducing it should not discount that students had voted for it.
"The voters approved the measure in a free and informed election," the decision stated.
Johanna Maska, Senate legislative director and Galesburg, III., junior said the ruling was justified.
"No matter what you think about Referendum b, the students
voted for it last year," she said.
Kit Brauer, holdover senator and Denver junior, said Referendum B did not address problems of representation because the greek community and off-campus students had different needs.
"We need individual greek seats and off-campus seats because we have absolutely different concerns," Brauer said.
- Edited by Katie Teske
What happened:
The University Judicial Board ruled that a referendum voted on by the student body last spring was binding. The referendum gave students living in greek housing the opportunity to vote for student senators in the off-campus classification and run for the office as well.

FACE-OFF
Where should core classes be taken?
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.
Don't take basic classes outside University
KU students are able to take Liberal Arts and Sciences requirements like Spanish and Western Civilization at schools other than KU. Students cite many reasons for taking this option. Some believe community college classes are more convenient. Others don't think they can handle the difficulty level of the classes at KU.
Both arguments are way off base.
Lyman Fox, Lawrence senior, took Western Civilization I at Johnson County Community College last spring to save time and money.
Fox spent about two hours a week in class and about an extra half hour commuting.
Laci Lauffer, Protection senior, who is enrolled in Western Civilization II at KU spends three hours in class.
It's pretty obvious that Fox has not saved any time taking his class elsewhere.
The argument that some basic classes are too hard also falls short.
First of all, most of the horror stories you hear are just hype.
James Woelfel, director of the Humanities and Western Civilization Program said, "Western Civilization's reputation for being the scariest, most awful course on campus is really a myth."
The difficulty factor is rather subjective, but Woelfel said that no Western Civilization teacher at KU was out to flunk a student.
In fact, teachers will usually work with students who are having problems and
there are many places to get extra help in a class.
Second, any student who passed the admittance requirements to get into college should be able to get through a basic class like Western Civilization as long as they do the readings and pay attention.
Looking for a way to get the credit without the work is just laziness and may do more harm than good.
Online classes are especially worrisome. Woelfel said that he was concerned that students were losing the basic components like reading, writing and discussing which are essential to the quality of the course.
The Humanities and Western Civilization department and the Office of Admissions and Scholarships have similar questions regarding online courses.
They have begun to review Western Civilization online courses like Barton County's. While the department and the Office are just gathering information about Barton County's online course, the possibility exists that they will no longer accept it as a valid transfer class after Spring 2003.
Take your classes at KU. You won't have to worry about commuting or transferring the class. It may be a little more difficult, but help is out there.
Taking your core classes at KU won't kill you.
Mandy German for the editorial board.
OH NO! I'M LATE FOR CLASS!
Phew! JUST IN TIME.

Online classes are a good option
The University of Kansas gives its students the option of taking certain classes online or through community colleges.
Many people argue that this policy does nothing but allow lazy students to take easier classes than their hardworking counterparts.
While at first glance it may seem like there is no logical reason to let students take courses like Spanish or Western Civilization someplace other than KU, in reality this is one option many students can't afford to loose.
More frequently, students take five years to graduate, especially if they have two majors. This can often require a heavy class load.
If students are able to lighten their load by taking a course which may be easier through a community college, while at the same time maintaining a full KU schedule, why should that liberty be taken away from them?
This becomes even more of an issue
when a KU course traditionally viewed as "hard" is offered at limited times and fills up quickly.
Juniors or seniors who have had to put off this course may also find that it conflicts with courses required for their degree.
However, taking a class outside of KU is best when it is not directly related to a student's major.
Jeff Weinberg, assistant to the Chancellor, said he thought those courses important to a student's major were best taken in a classroom with an instructor. He also said an online or community college class was a good option for simple course requirements
"If it's just a class that a student needs to get out of the way, it may tend to fit the mold of what will be acceptable," Weinberg said. "For some students who, for a variety of reasons, just need to get the class completed in a short amount of time, this is an option that wasn't available previously."
Remember that the biggest issue on campus for the past year has been tuition increases. The rising cost of tuition has been a hard fact of life for those who have to pay their own way through college.
To suggest that students should be unable to take a class through a community college, where it will be cheaper, instead of taking it at KU just because it is considered a "tough" course is ridiculous. Students should be able to take less expensive classes for credit through community colleges, so long as these classes are recognized by KU.
Students should have the power to decide what courses they will take and how they will take them. They should be able to control their own education, and get credit for courses in the way that works best for them.

PERSPECTIVES
'Kansan' works hard to present student groups without bias
It is the job of any good journalist to not only report the news but to do so in an unbiased manner.
This can become difficult for reporters who either feel strongly about the subject that they are covering or are not well educated in the issue at hand.
Some groups at KU think that the Kansan has fallen into using stereotypes and biases rather than reporting facts.
The Wjccan Pagan Alliance is one group that thinks the Kansan often fails to cover the group's activities in a manner that is correct and free of stereotypes.
"You simply can't summarize the entire Wiccan Pagan movement in one short article," said Larissa Rothe, WPA
president and Omaha senior. "It's a very complicated religion."
READERS' REPRESENTATIVE
Rothe said that the best way to avoid misconceptions due to improper facts being printed is to have an expert in the field write stories when involving groups or beliefs that are not mainstream.
Rothe said this would help in stories such as the Halloween articles that include the history of Paganism.
REPRESENTATIVE
Yet Jay Kraal, Kansan editor, said that having an expert write such a story would harm the paper's credibility. "Reporters need to stay objective," Krall said. "We need someone to write the article who has no vested interest."
Krall said reporters helped to ensure stories were unbiased and free from personal beliefs.
Laurel Burchfield
lurchfield@hansan.com
The Society of Open-Minded Atheist and Agnostics also thought that the Kansan was falling short in its coverage of the group's views.
Stephanie Kirmer, SOMA president and Topea freshman, said she felt the Kansan chooses not to cover atheist or
agnostic views in stories of religion.
"I understand why there is some hesitance to want to print an atheist viewpoint because of the opportunity for backlash from religious groups," Kirmer said.
She said she would still like to see more opportunities for members of the group to be quoted in stories involving superstition, court cases and science education in public schools.
Aaron Passman, religious, beliefs and politics reporter, said that the Kansan tried hard to contact all sources that were necessary for a story but he was also used to hearing comments about the way issues were covered.
However, Passman said that had not
stopped him and other reporters from writing stories that covered views not considered traditional.
This can be accomplished, Krall said, by writing a completely separate story with the opposite viewpoint being represented instead of having such strong and clashing views attacking each other in one story.
"It's just not the best way to represent both sides." he said.
Krall encouraged all students to submit letters to the editor or guest columns to express their concerns with the Kansan's coverage.
Burchfield is a Bashar sophomore in journalism, education and English.

Leavenworth freshman Whit Martin takes his newts out for some fresh air. Keeping newts in an aquarium has been a hobby for Martin since he was a child.
Freshman biology student proves astute in studies of animals, including newts
By Vanna Keomanyvong

Kansan staff writer
Every day for 10 minutes, Whit Martin studies his two newts through the clear walls of an aquarium. He watches his blackbacked, orange-bellied, threeinch long newts, Charlie and Roger, interact with each another.
The Leavenworth freshman said his daily 10-minute sessions would help him in his major, which is organismal biology, or the study of animals in their natural environment.
"Even though they're technically not in their natural environment, I made a fake habitat for them," Martin said. "It's sort of like a pre-field study. When I watch them, I formulate questions, and I need to do that in my major."
Martin grew up with animals. Throughout his life, his family has
Faces in the Crowd
owned about 30 turtles, 15 Beta fish, six rabbits, five
lizards, a cockatoo, a dog and a cat.
His brother, Jason Frankx, said Martin always made sure the animals were taken care of.
"We would spend about an hour feeding turtles in our turtle farm," Franksa said. "Some of the turtles had been hit by cars but Whit was always careful and made sure that things were kosher for them."
Since then, Martin said he dedicated his life to studying animals. About three times a week, he makes time to watch a nature show on Animal Planet or the Discovery Channel.
Martin said it was not until he took a trip to Costa Rica and Australia that he decided to major in organismal biology.
On a family trip to Costa Rica
three years ago, he walked through a rain forest and saw howler monkeys, spider monkeys and toucans.
On a student ambassador trip to Australia about two years ago, he saw kangaroos, koalas and wallabies.
"It's different when you are actually watching them in their environment than looking at them in a zoo," Martin said. "Not only are they more active in their environment, but you see their natural ways and how they really behave. In a zoo, they are lazy because they're in captivity."
His mother, Nancy Martin, said her son's compassion did not end with animals but extended to people.
"He plans to do something to make the world better," she said. "He wants to make sure that all God's creatures, great and small, are comfortable in their environment."
Martin said he wanted to focus

his studies on amphibians, like his newts, so he could help them survive in their natural habitat.
"They're cutting down rain forests and taking homes away from these animals," Martin said. "I want to be able to study their way of life so I can fix their habitat. If you take away where they live, you can't study them anymore because they won't be there."
KU researchers awarded grant to design better vaccines
Edited by Erin Ohm, Melissa Shuman and Sarah Hill
By Justin Henning jhenning@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas has been tapped to help in the fight against bioterrorism and other deadly viruses. The University's department of pharmaceutical Chemistry has received $1.5 million from the U.S. Department of Defense to create the Center for the Stabilization of Vaccines.
The center will focus on two categories of vaccines. The first will be vaccines for the developing world for measles, respiratory
syncytial, rotavirus and malaria. The other vaccines will be for agents of bioterrorism. Stabilizing the vaccines will make them more accessible to less developed areas of the world.
There are currently several problems with the long-range transportation of vaccines. First, many vaccines are unable to remain stable at room temperature; they must be cooled at a constant temperature. Second, the vaccines can only be administered by people trained in giving the vaccine.
"Right now, it's not a problem
to get a vaccine from here to Wichita, but it's not so easy when you're talking about a small village in the Andes," said Russ Middaugh, the project's director.
KU researchers will take the vaccine, which is made from a minor form of the virus, and figure out which of its hundreds of components makes it unstable. This will be done through a process developed at KU called "hig throughput screening."
It will take anywhere from six months to two years to stabilize each vaccine. KU is the only place
in the world where all areas of this research are conducted in one place.
"This has not been done in the past," Middaugh said. "There are not a lot of commercial incentives. Most vaccines are made for the developed world, and we hope that by solving the problem up front that pharmaceutical companies will start to use this technology."
Bill Picking, who is involved with the project, works mainly with infectious diseases such as salmonella and its ability to invade and attack the cells of

humans' large intestines.
He said the increased interest
in biodefense helped provide a good deal of momentum and resources to his research and other projects.
As for the specifics of the antiterrorism vaccines, Middaugh could not mention many of the specifics of the department's work because of security restrictions.
"We have a variety of anti-terrorism vaccines," he said. "And you need to have the anti-terrorism agent to make the vaccine."

Jayhawk recruiters venture across state lines
"How KU works" is an occasional series that explains how the University of Kansas operates. If you have a suggestion for a future installment, contact Kyle Ramsey at kramsey @kansan.com.
By Kyle Ramsey
kramsey@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Housed in the University of Kansas' Office of Admissions and Scholarships, 14 recruitment counselors have set up headquarters for a nationwide network that spreads the lavahawk gospel.
Counselors hope the thousands of high school students and
junior college students they meet each year hear the calling and apply to KU.
Counselors travel both statewide and to cities across the nation in search of prospective KU students. Because KU is a household name in many homes across the state, the real challenge is spreading the word beyond. Kansas state lines, said David Burge, associate director of admissions and scholarships.
Counselors recruit from locations nationwide, which are selected by Burge based on past recruitment success in those cities.
That is why it is not hard to out-of-state students from St.
KU
Louis, Dallas, Omaha, Neb., and Chicago. Burge said.
In recent history, the office sent recruiters to Denver each year but have stopped because of low enrollment from the Denver area. The office is now trying to recruit in Tulsa, Okla, instead.
"The whole system is constantly under revision," Burge said.
Alumni also play a major part in the recruitment process. To
help broaden the office's sweep nationwide. Burge said the University enlisted the help of alumni who volunteered at nearby college fairs.
"These are pure Jayhawks who are interested in giving back to their institution," he said. "In fact, overall, we attended over 230 college fairs in 15 states."
Although out-of-state students pay more in tuition, money is not a factor in recruiting out of state, Burge said. His motivation for recruiting hard out-of-state was to diversify KU.
"It's to increase the education experience for everyone, Kansans and other wise." he said.
Recruitment goals are set by
the Provost's Office. James Carothers, interim associate vice provost of academic services, said the University wanted more minority students and scholars who would raise the KU's academic profile.
"It makes us more attractive to good students in the future and contributes to high ratings of the University." he said.
These include the U.S. News and World Report annual rating of colleges and universities, Carothers said.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway wants the University to rank among the top 25 public universities by 2008. In the 2002 rankings, KU tied for 41st overall. The magazine ranked 249 national universities that offer doctoral and master's degrees.
To help bolster recruitment efforts, the office has began using more online resources to help recruitment counselors be more available to prospective students.
On Nov. 4, the office launched a nightly online chat service. Seven potential students participated the first night, and participation has been steady since.
Burge said the office would continue to branch out online.
"We're moving in to the electronic venue more than when I first started," he said.
Hall Center seminar to discuss poetry translations
Edited by Andrew Vaupel
By Nathan Dayani
ndayani@kansan.com
ndayani staff writer
Van Kelly faces the daunting task of translating French poetry to English while maintaining its artistic qualities and rhythm.
"I think there's an old Italian translation, 'To translate is to betray,'" said Kelly, associate professor of French and Italian.
Kelly will discuss translating
the words and themes of social commentary in French poetry from the 1990s. The discussion is from 3:30 to 5 p.m. today at the Hall Center for the Humanities as part of a monthly poetics seminar.
Jill Kuhnheim, associate professor of Spanish and Portuguese, coordinates the seminars. She said translating poetry could be difficult because the translator often had to choose to emphasize either the poem's message or its
style and sound.
"Poetry works on many levels of language at once," Kuhnheim said. "What I like about translation is you get really intimate with the poetry."
Kelly said he would analyze his translations of 14 poems ranging from the crème de la crème of the genre to more low-key contemporary French poets. Many of these poets faced the challenge of creating their own, original voice
rather than reflecting the styles and themes of previous genres, Kelly said.
"They're some authors who are really trying to integrate 90s daily life in their poetry - everything from computer technology to the fact that globalization is making cultures more homogeneous," he said.
After Kelly presents his ideas about poetry translation, participants at the seminar will have an opportunity to discuss and ask
questions.
Kuhnheim said this gave participants a chance to analyze poetry in a forum outside the classroom, which could be more conducive to free and creative thought.
"It's not like a lecture, and people can talk about poetry in an informal way," she said.
and graduate students more than undergraduates. She said those considering graduate study could gain a new perspective about how academics worked together and discussed research.
Janet Crow, executive director of the Center, said the poetry presentation was open to the public but was geared toward KU faculty

Native magazine features University
By Jenna Goepfert
jgoepfert@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas was profiled and the Museum of Natural History was featured on the cover of a Native-American magazine's annual college guide published last week.
Winds of Change focuses on career and educational advancement of Native Americans and chooses universities for its guide based on community characteristics and retention rates of Native Americans.
The Ninth Annual Guide for American Indians listed 200 different colleges and universities including Haskell Indian
Nations University and five others in Kansas — that are friendly to the Native-American community.
It profiled seven universities in depth, including KU and published interviews with three Native-American KU students.
KU was selected in part by using U.S. Department of Education and Petersen's Guides, Inc., statistics, said Barbara Sorensen, senior editor of Winds of Change.
"Sometimes we hear from students who go there." Sorensen said. "It's kind of word of mouth. The students kind of nominate their schools."
She said that was the case for the University of Kansas when
students recommended it.
Dianne Reyner, Lawrence graduate student, was one of the students included in the University's profile.
Reyner works in the University's Indigenous Nations Studies program and said the program and the University's connections with Haskell Indian Nations University attracted many Native Americans to Lawrence.
The Indigenous Nations Studies program began in 1997 and is one of only three universities across the United States to offer the master's program, she said.
Reyner said her parents taught at Haskell when she was growing up and she had noticed
Lawrence's growing number of Native Americans choosing to study and live in the city.
Reyner said that 293 Native American students attended the University at both the Lawrence and Edwards campuses.
She said assurances that Lawrence offered comfort and community support for Native Americans, such the endorsement from Winds of Change would draw more students to the University.
"I think they'll look seriously at it," she said. "It's a benefit to have information readily available as to what kinds of things might be offered."

Alaska town struck by violent storm
The Associated Press
CARBON HILL, Ala. — Fate was trying to kill this old coal mining town decades before a tornado roared through.
The mines began closing in the 1950s, and the three sewing plants followed, along with the mobile home factory. The car dealers are gone and so is the high
school, which burned down over the summer.
And now a wave of violent weather that claimed 35 lives in five states saved its deadliest blow for Carbon Hill, killing seven people and severely damaging scores of homes and the remaining elementary school.
The cleanup was well under way yesterday, but nobody
expects Carbon Hill to come back stronger. Just surviving will be enough.
"We need to draw from each other," said Leah Bray, a City Council member whose home was destroyed. "If we don't stay together, we'll die."
Nearly a third of the town of 2,070 about 70 miles northwest of Birmingham was damaged or
destroyed by a twister that struck Sunday as many residents were returning from church.
The narrow streets were littered with the splinters of once-towering oaks and bits of pink and yellow insulation. School officials surveyed the rooftless elementary school and its crumbling walls, and declared it a total loss.
Victims file lawsuit against corporations
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Victims of South Africa's apartheid government have filed a multibillion-dollar lawsuit accusing international corporations of condoning murder, torture and other abuses under the white-minority government.
The lawsuit, filed Monday in federal court, claims Citigroup, Swiss banking giant UBS and other corporations "acted with deliberate indifference to the well-being of the African population" while doing business in South Africa before the fall of apartheid in 1994.
Some of the businesses contacted said the allegations were groundless.
The class-action lawsuit was brought by the Khulumani organization, a South African support group for victims of apartheid, on behalf of its 32,700 members and 85 other people. It seeks billions in damages from as many as 100 businesses.
the plaintiffs allege that over three decades, the businesses aided the South African
government "in the commission of crimes of apartheid, forced labor, genocide, extrajudicial killing, torture, sexual assault, unlawful detention and cruel, unusual and degrading treatment."
Citigroup, UBS and Credit Suisse also were named in a similar lawsuit filed in June. Both cases follow a precedent established in litigation on behalf of Holocaust victims, who gained a $1.25 billion settlement from Swiss corporations.
Exxon Mobil spokeswoman Sandy Duhe called the lawsuit "an abuse of the U.S. civil justice system."
Citigroup said in a statement: "We believe the suit is without merit." UBS President Peter Wuffli said the bank regretted the events in South Africa, but denied any "connection between the suffering of victims and the activities of the bank."
Other U.S. companies named in the new lawsuit include JP Morgan Chase, IBM, Ford and General Motors.

Grazulz said it was important not to let the shows become a rote experience. He said the key was to keep reinventing the show for oneself.
"You want to be in their reference base," she said.
One might assume the word embarrassment is not in a comedic actors vocabulary, and for Kloss, that is true.
"I don't get nervous anymore," she said. "I just want the audience to have a good time.
One thing that appealed to students about The Second City was their reputation of hilarious improvisation skills.
Freshman Adam Reese said he had seen The Second City twice before in his hometown of Manhattan. While waiting in line to see show number three, he said it was the funniest show he'd ever been to.
Reese said he also liked the fact that many alumni from the show Saturday Night Live began their careers on The Second City. Chris Farley, Bill Murray and John Belushi are just a few of The Second City's alumni.
"I like the spontaneity, how anything could happen," he said of sketch comedy.
The groups skits touched on issues such as abortion and drug addiction. They also set some skits to song.
Grazulis said things that should never be put in song form are sung about.
"Like politics and weird relationships," he said.
He said music was a big part of the group's performance because it added another dimension to the performance.
The group performed an improvisational skit they called "freeze tag" which drew upon their wit. As the word "freeze" was yelled, one pair continued the skit using the prior couple's last line.
Kevin McCabe, St. Louis.
Mo., junior, said he enjoyed the unpredictability of sketch comedy.
"The people are pretty creative." he said.
"The Second City is probably our biggest act of the year," she said. "It's like a wrap up."
Student Union Activities sponsored the event. It was one of four comedic events SUA sponsored this semester, Aaron Mesmer, vice president of membership said.

inition of diversity and then trying to determine to what degree it existed on campus, in Lawrence and throughout the country.
Some students argued that not much diversity existed on campus and that they would feel more comfortable with more racial minorities in the student population.
Andrew Dies, Hehigh senior, had a different perspective. He said that Hehigh was a small town of about 200 people, and that Lawrence and KU had been a startling example of diversity to him.
"As a minority, you're forced to accept certain things," he said. "On campus, there's 2.5 percent African-Americans. You're thrown into it. You have no choice."
"That's one of the reasons I came here," he said. "For the diversity."
The group agreed with Melanie Weiser, Dallas, Texas, junior, who said that while definitions of diversity varied, it could be defined as anything that makes a person unique.
The group also agreed major media outlets played an important role in how cultures were perceived.
Dupree said children, the most impressionable of all.
were molded by mass media images that depicted false stereotypes and perpetuated ignorance.
Santos Núñez, director of the center, told the group that hate crimes were occurring at the moment the students were discussing diversity. Núñez said hate can begin with a single derogatory slur.
"Hate comes in so many forms and it starts with just one word," she said.

Corporate America tries to win over teenagers
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — Use a little slang and you've got their attention. That seems to be the growing thought in corporate America and the media, eager to hook the younger crowd.
Some sportscasters have started describing impressive plays as "sick." Before that, Budweiser ads helped place the greeting "Whassup" in the American lexicon.
But those are the rare cases that don't draw groans and eye-rolling from the young crowd. More often, young people say adults shouldn't even think about using lingo from the streets, hip-hop clubs and school hallways.
"Uh-uhhh, they need to quit," says Aurielle McIntosh, a seventh-grader from the Chicago suburb of Oak Park. "They just look silly."
That goes for just about anybody over 30. Aurielle says she and others can't help but piggle, for example, when their social studies teacher shouts, "Roll out!" — the title of a hit song by rapper Ludacris.
Still, corporate America seems set on using slang.
One current TV ad announces the release of DVDs of "Star Wars: Episode II" with the question "Who's da man?" and answers. "Yoda's da man," while showing scenes of the movie's pint-size Jedi elder fighting bad guys.
Another new spot for a new Microsoft Xbox game called "Blinx the Time Sweeper" features old guys wearing urban clothes and calling each other "homeys."
Some news organizations are getting into the act.
In an e-mail leaked this fall to other media outlets, a CNN Headline News producer gave his staff a slang dictionary and a suggestion, "Please use this guide to help all you homeys and homes add a new flava to your tickers and dekkos," the message said, referring to graphics on the TV screen.
"I would sort of chuckle at it, although it would catch my eye," says 14-year-old Guy Weltcheck of South Orange, N.J. "But what are they going to say? Something like 'Yo, yo, yo — what up, Saddam?'
Another problem: The slang adults use is often out of date.
CNN's slang dictionary, for example, has an old definition for "ill," which once meant strange or obnoxious. Now it means just the opposite — as in, "That DJ rocks. She plays the illest music."
In yet another ad, America Online uses slang for its new broadband service — "phat sounds to fat pipes." Phat, in that case, means rich, luscious, big.
Elsewhere, others prefer "slammin" and "tight" to describe something they like. And at parties, some like to get "crunked up."
But Kenny Ong, a graphic design student at the Art Institute of California-Orange County, says you are much more likely to hear students there say "that's butter" or "that's gravity" instead of what.
It's no surprise that most adults don't know that, says Paul McFedries, creator of an online catalog of terms called Word-spy.com.
"Slang is meant to be separate," he says. In other words, if adults are using it, it's not cool anymore.
That's what Microsoft failed to understand in the Blinx spot, says Buzz Marketing Group, a New Jersey-based firm where teen advisers panned the ad.
"I think the smartest advertisers are realizing that it's more about understanding youth culture than using their language," says Tina Wells, Buzz Marketing's 22-year-old chief executive.
partner of Blue Flame Marketing + Advertising, agrees. "It's really about being respectful," says Spencer, whose company is led by music executive Sean "P. Diddy" Combs. "Any culture wants to be respected - it doesn't want to be seen as a mockery."
Sometimes slang in ads can be funny, says Steve Messam, a junior and football player at Central Michigan University. He thought the Budweiser "Whassup" campaign, which began with younger black guys loudly greeting one another, worked well.
"I'm sure a lot of black people laughed because they know somebody — some family member or friend — who says that," says Messam, who is black. "And it translated well to white culture, too," he adds, noting later commercials that poked fun at nerdy white guys.
But race also can make using slang tricky.
Emily Hall, a white teacher ata predominantly black junior high in Columbus, Ohio, uses it to get students' attention. "Don't play with me!" she sternly warns those who act up. But generally, she waits to use slang until she knows students better.
"If they don't know you," she says, "they think, 'Who does she think she is?'

Ex-Hawk can't live past dream of success
There's a locally famous painting in Lawrence titled "Javadreamin'."
The work by artist John Onion features a youngster sitting on a worn basketball in the middle of the bright green lawn outside Allen Fieldhouse, eyes transfixed on the famous building where basketball is bred in young boys.
While the brown-haired kid could be just about any bitty-baller with dreams of playing for the Jayhawks, its not impossible to imagine Onion opted to use a youngster from the Sunflower State much like John Crider for his miniature model meditating in the painting's picture-perfect sunlight.
Crider is a guy from Horton who is trying to become the man on a mission for Washburn after transferring from Kansas in January 2001. But he did have Jayhawk dreams of his own.
Crider, who wore the crimson and blue for 21/2 years, never got the chance to completely realize his day of Jaydreamin' at Kansas.
And unfortunately for Crider, he didn't get to realize them in his return to Kansas. Crider is no longer a Jayhawk, he's an Ichabod, but besides a much longer ovation last night by beloved Jayhawk fans because he's been away. Crider didn't show much difference in another hue of blue.
"I was just off a little bit," said Crider, who only played 22 minutes after getting his head jarred by a Jayhawk early in the second half.
Kansas blew away the Division II school from Topeka 101-66 and kept Crider quiet — something he was all too used to while at Kansas.
He made just one of 25 field goals in 27 games in a Jayhawk uniform and scored only four points last night on 2-of-7 shooting. Much like his career at Kansas where he never hit a three-pointer, he couldn't knock one down from outside last night either, going 0-for-3 behind the arch.
The 6-foot-4, 190-pounder grabbed three rebounds and had three assists but showed no real signs of what made him the Gatorade Kansas Player of the Year in 1998 when he averaged 31.1 points and 11.1 rebounds his senior year at Horton High School.
Crider had never even imagined playing as an Ichabod —he always wanted to be a Jayhawk.
There's a picture even more famous in the Crider family that shows Crider as a teenager with his favorite coach — Roy Williams—during one of Williams' summer camps.
"I never thought I'd be an opponent in Allen Fieldhouse," Crider said. "It was kind of a weird feeling, but exciting too."
Crider, who Williams said will always be a member of the Jayhawk family, was pumped to be an opponent because he was living an even bigger dream.
The Washburn senior, who scored 15 points in the Ichabod's first exhibition victory of the season, has always dreamed of playing basketball, period. Playing the game, not sitting and watching it, being on a court was the way he wanted to live his dreams.
It's what kept him going through his famous six-hour-a-day self-practices in Horton. It's what helped him fight through the obvious role reversal of being a high school legend to being little more than a lump on the log at one of the nation's premiere basketball schools.

Washburn washed out
'Hawks continue exhibition victories
By Jessica Scott
jscott@kansan.com
Kansas writer/sportswriter
The lineup changed, the court changed, and at one point the shoes changed.
The outcome, though, stayed the same as Kansas won its 17th straight home exhibition game last night, beating Washburn University 101-62 in Allen Fieldhouse.
Sophomore forward Wayne Simien did not suit up because of mild tendinitis in his ankle, freeing a starting spot for freshman Moulaye Niang. While Simien probably could have played, coach Roy Williams said he and Simien made a joint decision for the forward to sit out after a brief pregame shootaround. Niang finished with seven points and three rebounds.
"Moulaye can play a lot better," Williams said, "He's got a chance to be a good defensive player, but he didn't
play very well defensively today."
Because of a rules experiment by the NCAA, the court looked different than usual. The lane was widened an additional two feet on each side and the three-point line was extended nine inches farther from the basket, but it apparently did not affect Kansas' shooting. The Jayhawks finished 62 percent from the field, nailing six of 11 attempts behind the arc.
Not every Jayhawk started off the game shooting hot. Sophomore Keith Langford contributed four points before the break, but came out after half time and scored eight straight points. So what made the big difference?
"I changed shoes," Langford said. "I've been doing it since high school. I know it's just mental, but it just comforts me. It made a little difference."
Without Simien, Kansas ran into

Warm welcome for Crider

John Crider's return to Allen Fieldhouse could best be described as bittersweet.
When the senior guard was introduced as a starter for the Washburn Ichabods, Kansas fans gave him a warm welcome comparable to that given to Adonis Jordan last week.
Crider, who transferred to Washburn University during the 2000-01 season, said he was excited to be back in Allen Fieldhouse, but could not predict the type of response he would get from the fans.
"I never thought I'd be an opponent in Allen," Crider said. "I wasn't expecting too much, but it made me feel good, and it made me feel relaxed."
After his introduction, Crider had a brief conversation with his former coach Roy Williams, but
his emotions got the best of him and he couldn't remember the advice and encouragement Williams had given him.
"My adrenaline was just so pumped that I just got lost in the moment," Crider said.
Crider was not the only one impressed with the standing ovation from the 16,150 fans in Allen Fieldhouse. His teammates shared the excitement.
"I thought that was great," Washburn senior forward Ryan Murphy said. "I like Crider a lot, and they do too. It was very respectful of them and showed a lot of class."
Despite the generous reception, it was a rough night for the former Jayhawk once the ball was tipped.
Crider was unable to repeat his 15-point performance from Washburn's first exhibition outing.

Basketball coaches say the same thing every year about exhibition games—the players are looking forward to playing an unfamiliar opponent.
Junior guard Leila Menguc will have to wait until the Jayhawks play their second game for that opportunity.
Mengüc, a Stockholm, Sweden
native, said she knows or has played against seven of the 11 members of the Sweden-based Solna Vikings. Kansas will meet the Vikings at 8:05 tonight in Allen Fieldhouse.
The Vikings usually play in Sweden's premier basketball league.

tour. In Sweden, Solna has won four national championships, including the past season's title.
Menguc, who played for rival teams in the Swedish league, said she had spoken with some of Solna's players while at home this summer.
"They said 'Yeah, we're going to play against Kansas,' and I said 'Hold up. That's us.'"" Mengüç said after Monday's practice.
Along with practicing as the Jayhawks' starting point guard, Menguc has been working as a scout this week. She even made calls to one of her sisters, who still plays in Sweden, to find out more about Solna.
"She's been trying to give us a heads up on the type of players they are," coach Marian Washington said. "We know a lot about what they might be looking for."

'Hawks to play key Big 12 game
Freshman setter Andi Rozum is 14 assists away from the Kansas freshman record. The Jayhawks are hoping her skills will help them take the Aggies tonight at 7 p.m. at the Horeisi Family Athletics Center.

Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas volleyball squad will work to end Texas A&M's perfect record against Kansas and to get an opportunity at the postseason.
The layhawks (17-6 overall, 8-6 Big 12 Conference) resume their season against the Aggies (17-7,9-6) at 7 tonight at the Horejsi Family Athletics Center. In their last match, Wednesday in Lubbock, Tex., Kansas lost to Texas Tech three games to zero.
In its 14 previous matches, Kansas has lost to Texas A&M every time, including its first conference match of the season on Sept. 18 at College Station, Tex., when they were swept 3-0.
"We didn't play that well at Texas A&M, but we have a lot more confidence
now," senior outside hitter Molly Scavuzzo said. "We're hoping we need two wins to get into the tournament so this could be really big for us."
Senior defensive specialist Jennifer Kraft's seven digs in Wednesday's game gave her 916 career digs, which is eighth all-time. Freshman setter Andi Rozum needs 14 assists to take the Kansas freshman record in assists.
"Initially, they rely heavily on the outside with Jones and Munsch. Now they're getting much more offense from everybody else," coach Ray Bechard said. "They're young and getting extremely comfortable with what the expectations are for them. They feel they're coming together at the right time."
The Aggies are riding on a four-match winning streak, including a 3-1 win over then-No. 20 Missouri at home Saturday. Freshman outside hitter Laura Jones, the preseason Big 12 freshman of the year, is seventh in the conference in kills per game with an average of 3.77. Sophomore outside hitter Melissa Munsch has a 3.56 kills per game average. Sophomore setter Lexy Beers averages 12.7 assists per game, which is third in the league.
"They're young and getting extremely comfortable with what the expectations are for them. They feel they're coming together at the right time."

Oakland's Tejada named American League MVP
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Miguel Tejada won his first American League Most Valuable Player award yesterday, easily beating Alex Rodriguez in a vote that valued a winning season over superior statistics.
The shortstop for the AL West champion Oakland Athletics received 21 first-place votes, six second-place votes and one third-place vote for 356 points from a panel of the Baseball Writers' Association of America.
New York Yankees second baseman Alfonso Soriano got the remaining two first-place votes and was third with 234 points, followed by Anaheim outfielder Garret Anderson (184) and Yankees first baseman Jason Giambi (162), the winner two years ago, when he played for the A's.
Rodriguez, the shortstop for the last-place Texas Rangers, got five firsts, seven seconds, 11 thirds, four fourths and a sixth for 254 points.
During Oakland's 20-game winning streak, the longest in the major leagues in 67 years, he hit a three-run, ninth-inning homer for the A's 18th straight victory, then had a winning bases-loaded single the next night.
Tejada hit a career high. 308 with 34 homers and 131 RBIs, helping the A's win the AL West. Oakland had 103 victories, matching the Yankees for the most in the major leagues.
Rodriguez, whose $252 million, 10-year contract is the highest is sports, hit .300 and led the major leagues with 57 home runs, 142 RBIs and 589 total bases. Rodriguez also was runner-up in 1996, when the Rangers' Juan Gonzalez finished first.
Even with A-Rod's outstanding season, the Rangers went 72-9, finishing 31 games behind Oakland in the AL West.
The only time a player on a last-place team won the award was 1987, when Andre Dawson of the Cubs led the NL in homers and RBIs after giving Chicago a signed contract during the collusion era and letting the Cubs fill in the salary — $500,000.
Tejada is the third Dominican to win an MVP award, following Toronto's George Bell in 1987 and the Chicago Cubs' Sammy Sosa in 1998. Tejada gets a $100,000 bonus for winning added to his $3.5 million salary, and Rodriguez gets $200,000 added to his $21 million salary. Anderson gets a $50,000 bonus.
Dodge City teacher sues school district over firing
The Associated Press
The lawsuit by biology teacher Chris Fawcett claims that he was fired from his extra duties, passed over for a department chairmanship and threatened with losing his job after reporting the alleged assault by coach Mike Schartz.
Besides the school board and Schartz, the lawsuit also names superintendent Gloria Davis, athletics director Tamie Preston and principal Jacque Feist as defendants.
DODGE CITY, Kan. — A teacher and former assistant football coach at Dodge City High School is suing the head coach and the school district, claiming he suffered retaliation for reporting an assault on a player during practice.
Tell us your news. 864-4810
In the lawsuit, Fawcett claims that on Aug. 28, 2001, he saw Schartz hit the player — who was not identified in the filing — in the throat, causing injuries that sent the player to the hospital.
The action, filed Nov. 1 in Ford County District Court, seeks more than $75,000 in damages.
The attack was caught on the practice videotape, the lawsuit claims, and Fawcett reported it to Feist.
the Dodge City Police Department and Preston.
School board president Beth Love said Monday Schartz had been suspended because of the alleged incident, but she did not know how long the suspension lasted. She said the decision concerning the length of suspension would have been up to Feist as the building supervisor.
On Nov.2, 2001, the lawsuit claims, Fawcett was fired from his duties as assistant football coach, weightroom supervisor and time-clock operator. He was hired by the district in 1993
Love declined to comment on the lawsuit itself.
Other claims in the lawsuit:
After reporting the incident, Fawcett was twice passed over to become the chairman of the high school science department, even though he was qualified and next in line by virtue of seniority.
— Fawcett continued to receive threats to his job as a biology teacher, including a May 8. 2002, conversation in which Feist allegedly threatened to end Fawcett's teaching contract if he did not keep silent concerning the alleged attack.
— Since Fawect made the report, negative information has been placed into his personnel file.
Iowa State looks to bounce back
By Rick Kerr
Iowa State Daily via U-Wire
iowa State University
AMES, Iowa - In what is beginning to sound like a broken record, the Iowa State football team heads out on the road again this week to face yet another top 25 opponent.
One week after dropping from the polls following a 58-7 shellacking at Kansas State, the Cyclones (7-4, 4-3 Big 12) travel to Boulder. Colo., to square off with the No. 17-ranked Colorado Buffaloes.
ISU head coach Dan McCarney needs his team to rebound from last Saturday's performance to compete with Colorado.
"It's our last Big 12 football game of the year, and we are looking to play a lot better football than we did on Saturday." McCarney said.
Colorado head coach Gary Barnett knows that Iowa State's performance against the Wildcats is no reason to take the Cyclones lightly.

["Iowa State] is a really solid football team. They ran into one of those games last week like we did against USC, where you just can't do anything right," he said. "It's just one of those things. Every time they've had a game like that, they came back and played really well. We're very leery of Iowa State in this situation."
This isn't the first time McCarney and his staff will have to spend time in practice coaching his team through such a big loss. The Cyclones had to travel to Texas after being blown out 49-3 by Oklahoma. They came back and played better, but still lost 21-10.
"I really think they'll respond and rebound. We've been through this before, unfortunately," McCarney said. "Even though we didn't win the next week, we came back and really played a lot of outstanding football against Texas."

Kansas punting specialists begin to lose their footing
After a strong start, punters struggle with new strategy
By John Domoney
jdomoney@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas football team's offense and defense ranked last in the Big 12 Conference, but the Jayhawk punting unit has been one of the most consistent aspects of the season.
Junior punter Curtis Ansel averaged 42.5 yards per punt through the first 11 games of the season, tying him for fifth in the conference.
Ansel even had a Big 12 record 83-yard punt against Baylor on Oct. 5, but players' recent struggles with strategy changes have made the punting game a concern for coach Mark Mangino.
"We've put a great deal of time into the punt team and it has been pretty good for us up until the last two weeks." said Mangino in yesterday's weekly press conference.
Of course, all aspects of the Kansas football team have not played up to Mangino's expectations. Kansas State and Nebraska outscored the Jayhawks 109-7 over the past two games.
Mangino said some of the problems in the punting game have stemmed from the coaching staff's decision to kick away from Nebraska and Kansas State punt returners DeJuan Groce and Terrance Newman.
get into some directional punting."
"We felt Nebraska and Kansas State had really good punt return teams in terms of return men," Mangino said. "Because we have a very skilled punter, we tried to
Mangino said that rather than puncting the ball down the middle of the field where teams were used to getting returns, they would try to punt the ball closer to the sidelines.
Kansan File Photo
That decision backfired on Mangino and the Jayhawks against Kansas State and Nebraska.
In the first quarter against the Wildcats Nov. 2, the Jayhawks' Ansel had a free kick after running back Clark Green was tackled for a safety.
37
Ansel aimed too far towards the sideline and kicked the ball out of bounds. Kansas State was awarded the ball at the 50-yard line because of the penalty and the Wildcats scored on their third play following the kick.
Later in the first half, a bad snap by senior long snapper Greg Nicks left Ansel open to be tackled at Kansas' 11-yard line, leading to another Wildcat touchdown.
Last Saturday against the Cornhuskers, the punting unit had a complete breakdown as bad snaps by Nicks and dropped snaps by Ansel contributed to short fields for the Nebraska offense to light up the scoreboard.
In the second quarter, a low snap by Nicks led to a host of Nebraska defenders tackling Ansel before he could get the punt away.
In the third quarter after Nicks had been replaced by junior Andy Coffman, one of Ansel's punts was blocked and returned by Nebraska's Aaron Terpening.
Ansel said he was still learning to be comfortable with directional kicking as opposed to punting the ball straight down the field.
Junior punter Curtis Ansel is averaging 42.5 yards per punt in Kansas' first 11 games, tying him for fifth in the Big 12 conference. While the punting unit has been one of the more positive aspects of the Jayhawks' losing season, it has recently begun to struggle with a different strategy.
"That's something I haven't done in the past," Ansel said. "I usually just kick it to them and let the coverage team go down there and cover them."
Mangino said he did not regret using the directional punting strategy in the last two games, but he expected to use the technique with his punting unit in the future.
"Hindsight is always 20-20," Mangino said. "We were just not able to execute."
Hockey club takes two victories into weekend series with'Buffs
— Edited by Adam Pracht

correspondence@kansan.com
Kansan correspondent
Coming off of two victories against Southwest Missouri State University, the KU men's ice hockey club team hopes to carry some of the momentum from their comeback victories into their first set of home games this weekend against the University of Colorado.
In both games against Southwest Missouri State, KU fought back from 3-1 deficits against the previously undefeated Bears. The Jayhawks won the first game 5-4 and the second 5-3, scoring the game-winning goal of each game in the third period.
Matthew "Marty" McSorley, St. Louis junior goaltender, said the team made many simple mistakes on defense which led to early goals for the Bears.
Kyle Wilson, St. Louis junior defenseman, agreed the defense made fundamental mistakes, but attributed it to the lack of conditioning by the team compared to Southwest Missouri State.
"They had been practicing a lot longer than us," he said.
Matt Davis, Topeka, junior forward, said at the time, the team only had a couple practices to prepare while Southwest Missouri State entered the game with a 7-0 1 record. Since those two games, McSorley said the team had worked on more defensive zone
coverage to prepare for Colorado.
The teams are also working on ways to attract more students to attend the game and show support.
Last week, the club ice hockey team had a photo taken in front of Strong Hall. Davis said the team wanted to put the photo on cards and pass them out on campus before games, which will be played at 7:30 p.m. Friday and 3:30 p.m. Saturday at Ice Sports-Kansas City. 19900 Johnson Drive in Olathe.
Davis said students interested in learning about future games could e-mail the team at kuhockey@hotmail.com.

Tar Heels recruits provide opportunity to improve
By Mike Corey
The Chronicle via U-Wire
Duke University
Durham, N.C. - In 2001-02, the best part of the nation's biggest rivalry did not come when Duke and North Carolina battled on the basketball court, but rather on the recruiting trail.
As has often been the case in the recent past, the Blue Devils won. Duke's freshmen were generally ranked first, above the Tar Heels.
The battle was a recruiting coup for coach Matt Doherty's North Carolina squad because freshman point guard Raymond Felton has been everyone's ACC preseason freshman of the year.
The much-ballyhooled player from Latta, S.C., is talented, as
seen by the numbers he put up his senior year of high school.
En route to being named the Naismith Player of the Year he averaged more than 30 points, seven rebounds, eight assists and three steals per game. His most conspicuous attributes are speed, strength, vision and proficient passing.
According to Phil Ford, the best point guard in North Carolina history. Felton is under more pressure to perform in Chapel Hill, N.C., than any other player in the school's history.
Called the "messiah" for the Tar Heels by Athlon Sports Magazine, Felton will have a full plate in late November.
"We realize he's a freshman," Doherty said. "Playing for the state championship in high school is different than playing
in the ACC championship and national championship. There are a lot of expectations on Raymond, but it is a team game. Raymond's not surrounded by experienced talent like Phil Ford or Kenny Smith were, or like some other freshman point guards in our program or in the league."
Felton said he did not expect the team to change radically, but he thought the team would improve with the presence of incoming freshmen.
"I am not going to say we will win the ACC," Felton said before he arrived. "We aren't going to win the NCAA championship. But we are not going to have as bad a year as last year. I don't think we are going to have a team like that."
Joining Felton in the back court will be Rashad McCants, a
shooting guard with a quick first step.
He has already drawn comparisons to former Tar Heel great Vince Carter. Though he is small for a wing guard at 6-foot-4, he is strong enough to post up more imposing players and skilled enough to score from outside.
"Offensively, he's very gifted. Defensively, he's still trying to understand being in a defensive stance, seeing man and ball and every position on the defensive end," Doherty said. "Offensively, he has a great feel. He can pass, he can shoot, he can post up."
The other North Carolina freshman expected to start is 6-8, 270-pound power forward Sean May, one of last year's to p players in talent-laden Indiana. He is a bruiser, comparable to former
Maryland center Lonny Baxter, but has been hampered recently by poor knees.
One knee is injured, the other is developing tendonitis. He was unable to participate in practice Monday.
"It's certainly set him back, and it's setting us back," Doherty said. "As smart of a player as Sean is, you have to have the reps, the conditioning, the experience.
"He can sit on the sideline and say 'this is where I'm supposed to go,' but it's different when you're actually out there on the floor. He's a very smart player, but he still needs to be on the floor doing it."
But perhaps the most surprising freshman — according to North Carolina seniors Jonathan Holmes and Will Johnson — will be David Noel. A 6-5 guard/forward out of Southern Durham High School, the freshman poured in 23 points in the Tar Heels' intrasquad scrimmage last Saturday.
Noel was prepared to sign a scholarship to play wide receiver for John Bunting's football program at North Carolina but decided to join the basketball team as a walk-on.
Teammates cite Noel's explosiveness and knack for scoring as his most significant attributes.
Rounding out the Tar Heels' recruiting class are a pair of big men, Jamaican Damian Grant and Byron Sanders of Mississippi.
The two are projects for Doherty, but improved significantly over the summer and are expected to contribute to the undersized Tar Heels.
Grizzlies acquire new coach
The Associated Press
MEMPHIS, Tenn — Sidney Lowe resigned as coach of the Memphis Grizzlies yesterday and was replaced by former NBA coach of the year Hubie Brown
The 69-year-old Brown takes over the only winless team in the league.
Lowe's resignation came the day after the Grizzlies lost their eighth game, playing at home against the Golden State Warriors.
"I wish the team well." Lowe said in a statement. "The Grizzlies have some good, young talent here, and they are going to be good in the future."
Lowe was in his third season with the Grizzlies, who have never had a winning since the team began playing in 1995. The
team moved to Memphis last year from Vancouver.
The Grizzlies had their best records under Lowe, 23-59 in the two previous seasons. Lowe was formerly an assistant coach with the Cleveland Cavaliers and head coach with the Minnesota Timberwolves.
During the off-season, Memphis hired Jerry West, one of the most respected executives in the NBA, as president of basketball operations.
West said Brown was one of the premier basketball minds in the business.
"I feel fortunate that we are able to find such an individual in such a short period of time and that he agreed to step in and accent this job." West said.
West's move to Memphis had Grizzlies fired up, and so did
his additions, including first- round draft choice Drew Gooden and Wesley Person, a shooting guard from Cleveland.
Brown was coach of the Kentucky Colonels from 1974-76, and won the ABA title in 1975. He coached Atlanta from 1976-81, and was the NBA's coach of the year in 1978, and directed the New York Knicks from 1982-87.
The Grizzlies were criticized for uninspired play early into the season, particularly on defense.
The Grizzlies scored 73 points against Denver, their worst scoring output since March 3, when they scored 71 against Seattle. Memphis trailed by 25 points in the second half against the Warriors, who won by 108-101.
Knight sues for lost income
The Associated Press
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — Bob Knight is suing Indiana University, alleging he lost more than $2 million in income since being fired by the school two years ago.
Knight contends he was fired without cause, without a proper meeting of university trustees and without a chance to defend himself.
The lawsuit was filed in the Monroe County Circuit Court on Friday after talks between his lawyers and the school collapsed. Under state law, the former Hoosiers basketball coach had until today to take legal action.
Knight was fired Sept. 10, 2000, by University President Myles Brand, and gave Indiana
notice in early 2001 that he mightsue.
The school denied Knight's allegations.
Attorneys have said a key issue in the talks is whether Indiana should pay Knight for lost income—and how much.
Russell Yates, Knight's attorney, said Knight filed the lawsuit because he believes the University breached the contract by firing him and costing him compensation.
The University paid Knight under the conditions of his contract, but the coach lost income that was directly dependent on the agreement, including money derived from television and radio programs, a basketball camp, a shoe contract and other endorsements, the lawsuit said.
"Coach Knight would not have gone into litigation for fun," Yates said. "He would not like this distraction, but we feel very clearly that he is owed money under the contract."
Knight spent 29 seasons at Indiana and won three national championships.
Brand fired Knight because the president said the coach violated a "zero-tolerance" policy that IU officials had imposed to try to keep his behavior in check.
Knight was fired days after an IU student claimed the coach had twisted his arm and admonished him after he greeted Knight by his last name.
Knight has disputed the reasons for his firing.

K-State method favors Nebraska's
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — When Nebraska coach Frank Solich looks at the Kansas State football team these days, he sees something familiar.
The No. 11 Wildcats have retooled their attack in recent seasons to more closely resemble the Cornhuskers — trying to wear down opponents with the running game.
"There are a lot of similarities," Solich said yesterday. "Both teams utilize a running quarterback, both teams have a power running game, but also run a number of options, both teams rely on play-action passes." Such was not always the case.
For years, Kansas State (8-2, 4-2 Big 12) was abysmal in all aspects of the game. When coach Bill Snyder took over in 1989, the Wildcats were one of the worst teams in college football. They were winless in 1987 and 1988 and went 1-10 in 1989.
Snyder turned things around first by filling barren cupboards with junior college transfers and installing a passing attack that came into its own during the reign of quarterback Chad May, who graduated in 1994.
But now, the Wildcats like to pound the ball on the ground.
They accomplish that with sophomore running back Darren Sproles, a 5-7 speedster who has amassed 1,072 yards this season. He needs just 191
yards to break the KSU single-season rushing record set by Josh Scobey last year.
Quarterback Ell Roberson has added 670 yards of his own on the ground and has thrown for another 1,029.
"They really try to build around their running game and come off of that with a number of things," Solich said. "And that's really our philosophy. That's really what we have been about for a number of years."
Perhaps Snyder noticed that many scoffed at Nebraska's run-first offense when most teams were adopting pass-happy offenses the past 10 years or so — a period that saw the Cornhuskers win three national championships.
"It's obvious that he felt that the best approach for them would be to really work very hard on establishing a running game," Solich said.
Nebraska quarterback Jammal Lord, meanwhile, has been on a tear after replacing Eric Crouch, who won the Heisman Trophy last year.
With 133 total yards in just over two quarters last week against Kansas, Lord become the third Nebraska quarterback in six years to rush and pass for at least 1,000 yards in a season. Scott Frost did it in 1997 and Eric Crouch matched the feat last season when he won the Heisman.
Lord now has 1,229 yards rushing and 1,016 passing on the season.
Aggies prevail against Sooners
By Jeff Johncox
Oklahoma Daily via U-Wire
University of Oklahoma
NORMAN, Okla. — The Oklahoma offense had one of its better games in Saturday's loss to Texas A&M. The Sooners went into the game averaging 210 yards passing per game and 175.8 yards rushing. Against the Aggies, Oklahoma put up 249 yards through the air and 156 on the ground.
Although it looked like an average performance for Oklahoma's offense,it was much more.
"That was one of our better offensive efforts," Oklahoma offensive coordinator Chuck Long said. "I think we can come
out of this game with a lot of things to be excited about going into the rest of the season."
Nate Hybl, a senior quarterback, had his best passing day since throwing for 303 yards against Missouri Oct. 5.
With Heisman contender Quentin Griffin running for 141 yards on 23 carries and Hybil throwing for two touchdowns, one would think Oklahoma would have put the ball in the end zone more often.
"I thought we moved the ball really well," head coach Bob Stoops said. "A few times we came up short in some critical situations, settling too many field goals when we had some opportunities to get more points."
The biggest play of the game for
the Sooners came after a quick first-position score by the Aggies, which gave Texas a 20-13 lead in the second half. On the next possession, Hybl found wide receiver Curtis Fagan for a 68-yard touchdown. Fagan said the play was designed at halftime to exploit the way the Aggies' defense was covering Oklahoma's wide receivers.
Key mistakes like the fumble by tight end Trent Smith, the late game-deciding interception by Hyb1 and field position played a critical role in the game's outcome.
"Their punter did an excellent job," Stoops said. "He put us down inside the 10 several times. It's hard to drive that far every time."
But the Sooners did drive down the field several times
against the Aggies. The only problem for Oklahoma was not getting it past the goal line.
"We had some opportunities in the red zone that we needed to punch in." Long said. "Give A&M credit. They stopped us when they needed to and we couldn't punch it in."
The Sooners are still in contention for the national championship. New Bowl Championship Series rankings put the Sooners at No. 4 behind Ohio State, Miami and Washington State.
Even with the loss, Oklahoma players know they can still accomplish their goals.
"We take it week by week and we always will," Hybl said. "Our goal every year is to win the Big 12, and we're still there."
Texas ready to stop pass-happy Texas Tech
By Mercedes Parker Daily Texan via U-Wire University of Texas-Austin
AUSTIN, Texas - Nathan Vasher and the defensive backs haven't been this excited in a long time.
After facing three mobile quarterbacks in the last four weeks, the Texas defense will go head-tohead with pass-happy Kliff Kingsbury and the Texas Tech offense Saturday.
"I speak probably for the rest of the DBs: We will be very excited this weekend," Vasher said. "We'll have a chance to make some plays."
"Playing against a guy who throws the ball so much - it'll be fun to get out there and fly around."
Texas Tech throws the ball an average of 56 times per game, and it has 4.248 passing yards already this season.The Red Raiders lead the Big 12 Conference in passing and total offense.
At home this season, Texas Tech's high-powered offense has averaged 47.8 points per game, and they have lost only one game at Jones SBC Stadium, which was a 51-48 overtime loss to North Carolina State.
Linebacker Reed Boyd will take the Texas defensive backs against Kingsbury any day.
"There's no one side you really want to throw to," Boyd said. "You have to pick your poison. I wouldn't want to throw against them, if I were a quarterback."
Vasher said that's what the sec
ondary had been trying to do all season -- have a number of players capable of making plays. That was on display Saturday against Baylor, Vashers said, when Kendal Briles played for the first time in his collegiate career as a free safety and came up with two interceptions.
"It's something we've strived for all season, to not have anybody in the secondary have a drop off." Vasher said. "[Kingsbury] will just have to take his choice."
Kingsbury doesn't have a go-to guy on the field, although freshman Taurean Henderson leads Texas Tech in receiving and rushing yards with 660 on the ground and 489 through the air.
"With the type of offense they
run, they can score points on you really quick," Boyd said. "They're going to fight the entire game."
Boyd knows Kingsbury quite well. They both lived in New Braunfels but attended different high schools with Boyd attending Canyon High School and Kingsbury at New Braunfels High.
"I watched him in high school, and he has a great arm," Boyd said. "If you put the ball in his hands, he'll make some plays."
Defensive end Cory Redding said Texas considered Kingsbury a tough opponent because of his pocket presence.
Especially after last year's 42-7 win over Texas Tech where Kingsbury constantly took his but just popped back up ready to play.

The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The creative force behind Spider-Man, the Incredible Hulk and Daredevil filed a $10 million lawsuit Tuesday, claiming his old comic book company is cheating him out of millions of dollars in movie profits.
Lee files suit against Marvel for his share of movie profits
Stan Lee, who crafted a menagerie of superpowered heroes with very human flaws, now claims Marvel Entertainment Inc. has tried to shut him out of the "jackpot" success of this summer's Spider-Man movie.
Lee's attorneys filed court papers in Manhattan federal court, claiming Marvel signed a deal to give its client 10 percent of any profits from his characters used in films and television
shows.
Spider-Man has been the year's biggest hit, grossing more than $400 million domestically—but the 80-year-old Lee said he hasn't seen a penny.
"Despite reaping enormous benefits from Mr. Lee's creations, defendants have failed and refused to honor their commitments to him," the lawsuit charges.
from the upcoming movie Incredible Hulk, and the sequels to X-Men and Spider-Man.
The lawsuit demands damages and a court order forcing Marvel to turn over Lee's share in any profits from movies about characters he created.
Marvel issued a statement saying Lee "continues to be well-compensated" for his contributions to the industry. It said the company is "in full compliance with, and current on all payments due under, terms of Lee's employment agreement."
Spider-Man stars Tobey Maguire as the teenage superhero, Willem Dafoe as the villainous Green Goblin and Kirsten Dunst as love interest Mary Jane Watson. A sequel is due out in 2004.

some trouble on the boards. Juniors Bryant Nash and Jeff Graves combined for six rebounds, but senior Nick Collison grabbed 15 rebounds to go with his team-high 24 points. Williams said he wanted to see people besides Collison picking up the slack.
"Without Wayne in there, somebody's got to step up and rebound," he said. "We challenged everybody else to a better job on the boards, but Nick still got there himself."
Senior forward Nick Collison snags a rebound before the lechabods' Troy Douglas has the opportunity. Collison led the Jayhawks last night with 24 points and 15 rebounds.
Kansas' other senior Kirk Hinrich went 5-of-7 from the field and finished with 12 points and six assists. He attributed his performance to his play-making tendencing.
"I still have a point guard mentality so I just try to make plays," he said. "I'm not going to try and force it. I'm going to let the game come to me."
Williams said although Hinrich had a modest statistics line, the senator leader impressed Williams with his willingness to pass the basketball.
"Kirk: Hirsch was unbelievable," he said. ("Hirrich), who I think is the best guard in the country, only shoots three times in the first half. It shows that he is unselfish."
The Jayhawks played their first game with Graves as an official team member and he ended with seven points and five turnovers in 17 minutes. Williams said Graves practiced hard but needed to work on his discipline off the court.
"He's got to do more push away — push away from that table "Williams said.
Freshman walk-on forward Christian Moody, who had four points in five minutes, earned the loudest applause when he stammed the ball home with a minute remaining. Langford
leapt out on the floor after the dunk, but said he wasn't surprised by Moody's sudden aggression.
"Christian does that all the time in practice," he said.
And after starting point guard Aaron Miles missed an open dunk minutes earlier, Williams said Miles could learn something from the freshman.
"Christian Moody's going to give Aaron Miles a lesson on how to dunk," he said.
Notes
Williams received his first technical ever last night. Two
minutes after halftime, Williams disagreed with a missed backcourt violation call and was whistled for the technical.
The Associated Press named Hinrich to its All-American team yesterday, but he did not know it until announcer Max Falkenstein informed him at game time.
"I just found out before the game," Hinrich said. "I didn't really think anything. I just went out and played."
Colliison finished seventh in the voting, four votes behind Erwin Dudley of Alabama.

Big East Conference back on top
The Associated Press
The last Big East game last season was the conference's best.
When Connecticut heat Pittsburgh 74-65 in double overtime in March, Madison Square Garden was rocking for the league's tournament championship game just as it did in the years the Big East was always among the country's top conferences.
Pittsburgh has all five starters back from last season, and Connecticut has three starters back as both try to repeat as division winners, and the Big East has enough quality teams that another six bids to the NCAA tournament is a possibility.
"People have to understand this started with a great closing run to the season two years ago," Panthers coach Ben Howland said. "Last season was a continuation of that, and hopefully it will go on."
Brandin Knight is back at point guard, and Julius Page is one of the most exciting off guards in the nation. All of the frontcourt players improved last season, when the Panthers won a school-record 29 games.
Pittsburgh, ranked No. 5 in The Associated Press preseason poll, has one other factor in its favor this season: a new building. The 12,500-seat Petersen Events Center opens on campus; the fast available ticket was sold Aug. 31.
"With all that has happened and is right around the corner." Howland said, "things are going pretty well around Pittsburgh basketball."
It isn't too shabby around the Connecticut program, either.
The Huskies went on an impressive NCAA tournament run, losing to eventual champion Maryland in the East Regional final. Sophomore star Caron Butler left for the NBA, but the three-guard rotation of sophomore Ben Gordon, junior Taliek Brown and senior Tony Robertson and the inside sense of sophomore Emeka Okafor (third in the nation in blocked shots last season), is a pretty good starting point. Coach Jim Calhoun also has four freshmen with a chance for quality minutes.
Boston College has one of the nation's best backcourts in Troy
"We're young, but we’re pretty talented." Calhoun said.
Bell and Ryan Sidney, Georgetown's experienced frontcourt is led by junior Mike Sweetney, who was fifth in the league last season in scoring (19.0), third in rebounding (10.0) and first in field-goal percentage (56.7).
Miami has starters Darius Rice and James Jones back as it looks for a fifth NCAA berth in six years. Notre Dame has one of the nation's best point guards in sophomore Chris Thomas. St. John's got some backcourt help for leading scorer Marcus Hatten in freshman point guard Elijah Ingram. Syracuse has the league's most heralded freshman, forward Carmelo Anthony.
Xavier was the Atlantic 10's only team in the NCAA tournament last season. With two-time conference player of the year David West deciding to return, the Musketeers — 10th in the preseason AP poll — are a safe bet to make the field of 64 for a third straight season.
The 6-foot 10 West averaged 18.3 points, 9.8 rebounds and 2.3 blocks last season.
"Hands down, Xavier is the team to beat," La Salle coach Billy Hahn said.
Crider CONTINUTED FROM PAGE 1B
Crider was limited to only 22 minutes last night after getting hit in the back of the neck early in the first half.
25 points and tied for the team high with rebounds.
"It's a good ball team we played out there," Crider said. "I had a lot of fun until I got my neck jarred."
He was 2-for-7 from the field, finishing with four points, three rebounds and three assists.
Murphy led Washburn with
"They kind of hung off me at first," Murphy said, "but I was able to get some good looks and get it in the basket."
Murphy didn't have much help. The next leading scorer, junior forward Troy Douglas, had just eight points.
The team's top returning scorer, senior forward Manny Clifton, played just 10 minutes after picking up two fouls in the game's first two minutes and recorded just five points for the night!
The game resulted in a 35-point defeat for Washburn, but Crider said the Ichabods realized this game would serve as good experience as they head into the start of their season in the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association.
"Playing in an environment like this is different," Crider said. "I was looking forward to it, and we saw everything tonight from them defensively that we could possibly see."

Residents of Hampton Court Apartments, 1704 W. 24th St., were evacuated about 9 a.m. yesterday after a second-floor apartment caught fire.
The apartments are one block south of Perkins Restaurant, 1711 W. 23rd St.
Lawrence-Douglas County Fire and Medical firefighters knocked on doors to alert residents of the 35 apartments in the building.
"They just said, 'Get out,
something's on fire,'" said Andre Oatis, 24, a resident.
Pottayil watched firemen contain the fire, which was in apartment 201.
"I don't know what's going on here," he said. "I just was sleeping and was called out of my dreams."
"You can see the windows they've broken through and the bed's on fire." he said. "The ceiling's gone, too."
Bianca Salazar lives in the apartment with her husband, Serafin, and their two sons.
She said Serafin Salazar and their 5-year-old son Maury were in the room when the fire started, but neither were
injured.
Acting Battalion Chief Jim Sloan said the fire was caused by a child playing with matches. Damage was preliminarily estimated at $5,000.
Salazar family would be living elsewhere for about two weeks while the bedroom where the fire started was repaired.
Jill Lewis, manager of the apartment complex, said only the apartment where the fire originated would need major repairs, and the apartment below had received minor water damage. She said the

Brandon Tripp, St. Louis, junior, stands on his balcony overlooking The Crossing at the corner of 12th Street and Dread Ave. Tripp said he enjoyed the bar's proximity and that after the bar closed, his apartment often became the site of parties.
Too close for comfort?
By Matt Stumpff
mstumpff@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
People who live next to a bar find the relationship either intoxicating or infuriating.
How students react to living next to a bar depends on love of booze and tolerance of noise.
"It eats into my homework time," he said. "You go for one beer and it turns into a few more."
Brandon Tripp, St. Louis junior, said he enjoyed the proximity of his apartment to The Crossing, 618 W. 12th St.
But living next to a bar can take time away from other things he should be doing, Tripp said.
Tripp said one of the only negatives was needing to turn his television on to drown out the bar's jukebox, which
"I'm there like three nights a week," he said.
repeated the same songs every night.
Brett Gilmore, Overland Park senior and bartender at The Crossing, said he had never heard anyone complain about the bar's patrons in the two years he has worked there. But, the surrounding apartments were comprised mostly of students who were more tolerant of the atmosphere.
But some students can't put up with the sound night after night just for the convenience of a short walk to the bar.
Katie O'Bryan, Overland Park senior said the negatives of living close to the The Wheel Cafe, 507 W.14th St., and The Hawk, 1340 Ohio St., outweighed the positives.
Late-night urination wasn't the only thing that made O'Bryan change apartments this fall. She said she frequently awoke to the sounds of closing time.
"People would be peeing against the side of mv window." O'Bryan said.
"Girls with that I'm so drunk' mating
Rob Farha, owner of the The Wheel, said he also owned the apartments, Oread Villas, across the street from his bar. Farha said he warned people who wanted to live in the apartments about the bars before they moved in.
"Nine times out of ten, they say 'That's why I want to live here,'" he said. "They know what they're getting themselves into."
Farha said he included a provision in his leases saying that the tenants acknowledged the bar environment
Students who don't frequent their neighborhood bar sometimes have to learn to adapt to the situation.
Bryan Alley, Lawrence freshman, said he didn't notice bar traffic as much as he did when he first moved in this fall.
"I'm pretty used to it," Alley said. "Drunk people and their antics amuse me, I guess."
Vote to lift liquor law negates state ban

Sunday liquor sales are becoming a reality in Wyandotte County after the Nov. 5 election.
The citizens in the county voted to lift a ban on Sunday packaged liquor sales, even though the decision contradicts a state law prohibiting the sales. But questions still surround whether the state will recognize the county's law, and some Wyandotte County liquor stores are still hesitating to open their doors on Sunday.
"We get our license from the state, and we are under their jurisdiction," said Lance Vogel, co-owner of Roger's Wholesale Liquor Store in Kansas City, Kan. "Until the state gives us clearance, I don't feel comfortable putting our license in jeopardy."
If the state does lift the ban on Sunday liquor sales, it would mean a lot more business for Kansas liquor stores, Vogel said.
"There are tons of people who go across the border on Sunday to buy in Missouri," he said. "My customers keep telling me as soon as I open on Sundays, they will come here instead."
This year's voters decided 18,179 to 12,498 to allow Sunday sales in the county, which includes Kansas City, Bonner Springs and Edwardsville.
The state ban on Sunday liquor sales dates back to the a 1949 passage of the Liquor Control Act.
Wyandotte County's Unified Government is defending the voters' decision.
Hal Walker, chief counsel for the Unified Government, said the act did not apply uniformly to all cities in the state.
Because Kansas has a home-rule policy according to which cities can decide to change certain kinds of state laws. Walker said, the decision stands on firm legal ground.
The state of Kansas is the main benefactor from Sunday liquor sales, he said because the state receives taxes on bottled liquor.
Many Sunday customers come from big races at the Kansas Speedway, he said. "Keeping those people who want to buy liquor in Kansas generates additional revenue for the state," he said.
Although Walker is not aware of any organized opposition to the change, he does expect a court challenge from the attorney general.
But no final decision has been made whether to take action against the county's new ruling, said Mark Ohlemeier, public information officer for

Kansas teen queen heads to national pageant

Trinity White vacuums in a pair of four-inch heels—it's all about practicing her poise.
Wright, a 19-year-old Shawnee freshman, is headed to Charlotte, N.C. today to represent Kansas in the Miss United States Teen pageant, which runs Friday through Monday.
To prepare for the pageant, Wright stopped wearing make-up to preserve her complexion two weeks ago and began breaking in the shoes for her evening gown competition a month ago, hence the vacuuming in heels.
For Wright, competing in pageants has become a science. Preparation for the national competition began almost immediately after being garnished with the Miss Kansas United States Teen's sash and crown in March. She schemes with her pageant coach, formerly her vocal coach, to choose a pageant wardrobe and practice onstage presentation. Wright studies a book of possible interview questions to be sure the judges won't put her on the spot. She said that she had competed in one or two pageants this year and that she had competed in two to three a year before she got to college.
"The best part is seeing little girls with their mouths open — you're a princess!"
she said.
The prizes began pouring in when Wright snatched the Kansas title. Although she ultimately decided to attend the University of Kansas, a full scholarship to Johnson & Wales University accompanied the crown. Johnson & Wales, a business and technical school, has campuses in Rhode Island, South Carolina, Virginia, Florida, Colorado and Sweden. The pageant program also awarded Wright $500 in fragrances, a $500 scholarship to any other university, jewelry, Hawaiian Tropic memorabilia and an all-expenses-paid trip to Charlotte for nationals.

Projected state deficit has grown to $310 million
TQPEKA — The projected deficit for the state budget has grown to $310 million to account for unanticipated costs in social services and public schools.
The figure represents how far short expected revenues would fall on June 30 after agencies spend the $4.4 billion for the current fiscal year.
Gov. Bill Graves has trimmed spending by $41 million, and expected revenues include the $252 million in tax increases legislators approved in May

Meat plants to reopen after health inspections
PHILADELPHIA — Two poultry plants that closed after tests found potentially deadly bacteria—leading in one case to the largest meat recall in U.S. history—have been given a clean bill of health, officials said.
The J.L. Foods plant in Camden, N.J., reopened yesterday and the Wampler Foods plant in Franconia, Pa. was scheduled to resume operations last night, company officials said.
Texas-based Pilgrim's Pride, owner of Wampler Foods, announced a nationwide recall of more than 27 million pounds of meat last month after tests found listeria. Then, earlier this month, the CDC said listeria had turned up in deli meat produced at J.L. Foods. Listeria is a bacterium that can cause severe illness, stillbirths, and sometimes death.

Colombian government to release rebels for priests
BOGOTA, Colombia — President Alvaro Uribe said yesterday he was willing to exchange captured rebels for guerrilla hostages, marking an about-face in policy after the kidnapping of one of Latin America's leading Roman Catholic bishops.
The Senate president, Luis Alfredo Ramos, said a cessation of hostilities would not be a prerequisite. In the past, Uribe has said he would demand a cease-fire before beginning any talks.
The policy turnaround became public two days after suspected rebels kidnapped Bishop Jorge Enrique Jimenez and the Rev. Desiderio Orjuela. Jimenez is the president of the Latin American bishops conference, which determines Roman Catholic Church policy in Latin America.

Businesses seek interns
By Molly Gise mgse@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Opportunity awaits in the Burge Union this afternoon.
An internship open house will give students a chance to talk to recruiters from local companies, peruse job listings and hear students share their intern experiences.
The open house is from 3 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.on the lower level of Burge.
Tough economic times require students to gain as much professional experience as possible before joining the work force, said Mary Andrade Carlson, assistant director of University Careerand Employment Services and organizer of the event.
"More and more students are doing internships." Andrade Carlson said. "If you're to remain competitive with the students you're graduating with, you have to have those experiences."
Representatives from AIESEC, Sprint, Philip Morris, Coro Kansas City, Hill's Pet Nutrition, INROADS, Kansas Community Corps and Worlds of Fun will be sharing information about their internship programs
and accepting resumés.
Tables set up in Burge will have more than 100 listings for local and regional internships and about 1,000 national listings.
Meg Maise, St. Charles, Ill. senior in journalism, will graduate next December with the equivalent of two years of experience, thanks to four internships.
"I almost have enough experience that my first job doesn't have to be entry level." Maise said.
Maise will talk about her internships and answer questions about how to find jobs during the open house. She is part of a student panel that also includes Student Body President Jonathan Ng.
"You've also created a network of people who know other people who know about job opportunities." she said.
Students can also attend a "Create Your Own Internship" workshop, where they can learn how to design an internship and pitch it to employers.

Andrade Carlson said internships not only provided experience, but they also allowed students to meet people in their field.

have trouble finding an internship listing that fits, Andrade Carlson said. The workshop will teach participants how to design an internship and promote it to prospective employers.
Maise wrote letters to companies that weren't recruiting interns. Some employers responded and asked for her resume.
"I did that and here I am," said Maise, who works three days a week as an intern at a public relations firm in Overland Park.
Career and Employment Services and AIESEC are co-sponsors of the open house.The event is free.
Informational interviews open career possibilities
By Nathan Dayani
ndayani@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A relatively new method of job searching, called informational interviewing, may be the key to unlocking a hidden job market.
"Somewhere between 70 to 80 percent of the jobs people fill are never advertised," said Kent McAnally, assistant director of the KU Career and Employment Services. McAnally said that some companies might not have vacancies but might make room for qualified people if they show potential.
The center hosted a workshop yesterday about fostering job connections and informational interview skills. McAnally said informational interviews could be an effective way for job hunters to be noticed by potential employers. He said that in an informational interview job seekers would go to companies in their areas of interest. Seekers then interview with employees about their jobs, the jobs' demands, benefits and drawbacks. McAnally said most employers and staff members
"Somewhere between 70 to 80 percent of the jobs people fill are never advertised."

were willing to give an informational interview.
"Most of us who like what we do are very happy to talk about what we do," he said.
A well-conducted interview could be a crucial step in developing contacts with different companies, said Ann Hartley, associate director of the center.
"Anything you can do to get face-to-face with people is good. Employers are more likely to remember you," she said. "If they know you and like what you've done, they'll be more likely to recommend you to others."
But Hartley said job hunters should not mislead employers at informational interviews by attempting to directly apply for a
job. Such an approach would compromise the interviewee's credibility and potential to make connections among employers, she said.
McAnally said job hunters should prepare for an informational interview by thoroughly researching the company they are interviewing with. He also said job seekers should thank the company members who gave them information within a few days after the interview.
Lauren Serpe, Leawood senior, was one of a handful of students who attended the workshop and said it had helped clarify her understanding of the informational interview.
"I've been hearing about them and didn't know what they were about," she said. Serpe said informational interviews could be an alternative to traditional job searches because they could generate more job leads.

World Trade Center beams to stand as memorial

Two 10 1/2-foot beams from the wreckage of the World Trade Center — still charred from the flames — will serve as a Sept. 11 memorial on the University of Kansas' West Campus, officials at the Dole Institute said.
dow, Norton said.
The beams will be incorporated into a memorial in front of the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics, currently under construction, Richard Norton Smith, director for the Dole Institute, said he thought the memorial would be completed in time to be dedicated on Sept. 11, 2003.
Preliminary plans for the memorial show the beams enclosed in glass, illuminated from the ground, and standing in front of the Dole Institute's 30-foot high American flag stained-glass win-
"Like the Dole building itself, this would be another landmark on the KU campus," Smith said.
Smith said he had conceived the idea for the memorial after seeing students' generous reactions to the terrorist attacks in the form of donations made to the Families of Freedom Scholarship Fund. The fund was established by Sen. Robert Dole and former President Bill Clinton for families of Sept. 11 victims.
"We've heard about the greatest generation, and we've wondered whether Generation X could measure up." Smith said. "It's pretty clear that 9-11 has answered those questions."
In order to get the beams to KU, Smith teamed up with Dole and New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg's office. Three weeks ago, Smith presented the concept of the memorial to Dole, who liked the

idea and approached the mayor's officeabout it.
"Within 48 hours, I got a call that the beams were being cut," Norton said.
Norton said Andrew McKelvy, who works with the Families of Freedom Scholarship Fund, was instrumental in getting the beams to the University. McKelvy also has a daughter who is dating someone in Mayor Bloomberg's office, and that was helpful in getting a quick response, Norton said. McKelvy paid to have the beams shipped to Lawrence.
The beams will eventually
stand in the same condition they were found in the wreckage, not cleaned or sanitized. Erik Nelson, associate director of the Dole Institute, said this would add to the memorial's impact.
"The public will have an unedited viewing experience," Nelson said.
The Sept. 11 memorial will tie into a larger theme of service at the Dole Institute, with an American flag window and Dole's World War II uniform just inside the building.
"We're making the connection between two generations," Norton said. "It shows how each generation is called upon to render service."
"It affected our entire nation," said Colleen Klein, Overland Park freshman. "Even if we don't live in New York, it's relevant to all of us."
Students say that the memorial will be a fitting tribute to the victims of the terrorist attacks.

Nick Norcia, Liberty, Ill., freshman, compared the memorial to existing campus landmarks.
Two beams from the World Trade Center towers will become a part of a memorial at the Dole Institute on west campus. The beams arrived Tuesday, still burnt from the terrorist attacks that took place Sept. 11, 2001, and that destroyed the two, 110-story towers that once graced the New York City skyline.

What ever happened to the days when we could hang at the Max, listening to Lisa's latest fashion crisis or Jessie's crusade to save some poor lab animal from biology class?

Oh wait, that was Saved by the Bell,
won't it?
I guess the real world was never really that easy. No matter how crazy life became, you knew that Dad would be there with a hug and a loving word of advice while ever-present music played in the background.
I think we were all a little shocked when we got to high school and realized it was nothing like the world of Zach and the gang, although I'm pretty sure every school had its own Screech running around.
What about that time when you and your sisters fooled your clueless Uncle Jesse into letting you stay up past your bedtime?
Your house was always full of the crazy antics of your schemes to win the spelling bee, skip class by faking sick or try to be one of the cool, popular girls. Or was that just the wacky antics of Full House?
Sometimes I wonder what shaped
Of course, we had Roseanne to give us another, sometimes harsher perspective on the world.
my ideas of how a family should live and function normally.
I wonder how much of that television culture infiltrated our society and left lasting effects on us, the target audience for those shows.
Ask any student on any college campus, and he most likely could provide a detailed synopsis of a late '80s/early '90s popular television show.
Television did, and still does, provide a wonderful escape from the hard life that is adulthood.
To this day, I still sit down and watch a good, healthy dose of The Cosby Show, just to put life in perspective and enjoy some yummy Jell-O snacks along the way.
Although we never have enough time to sit down and watch television
the way we could when we were younger, every once in a while the pull of the blue glow is irresistible.
Recently, Nick at Nite, the network that used to be reserved for classic programming from our parents' generation, has started airing shows I can remember watching when they came on.
I can still sing along to the Charles in Charge theme song.
I can imagine a few more years down the line when Blossom and Beverly Hills, 90210 are standard Nick at Nite fare, or even later, when Will & Grace and Friends (gasp, heaven-forbid) make their debuts.
I don't suppose we can stop the passage of time, except hold on to the few happy memories of coming home after school and plopping down in front of the television for a couple of hours.
But you know it's bad when your roommate starts a conversation with "doesn't this remind you of that one Full House?"
That doesn't mean we can't all relive that special moment in history.

Roads are built for all users
I read with some interest the opinion piece by Meagan Kelleher in Thursday's Kansan ("Bicycle riders should follow same as laws as car drivers").
As a commuting cyclist myself, I couldn't agree more with Meagan's premise; we should all follow the same rules of the road.
Unfortunately, both cyclists and motorists seem to be unaware of those rules. My daily commute takes me through Old West Lawrence, and although its speed limits are those of a residential neighborhood, I routinely see motorists ripping through the area at speeds in excess of 40 m.p.h (some apparently don't notice the speed limit signs, they're too busy talking on their cell phones). I also see road users (that includes cyclists and motorists) practicing "rolling stops," not signaling, etc. on a daily basis.
In those situations, it's tempting to blame the other group of road users and brand "them" as the problem. In reality, it's not an "us" versus "them" scenario...it's a "we" scenario. As in, we all need to obey the rules of the road.
Ms. Kelleher also asks for cyclists to take safety classes before "they endanger those around them when they ride a bike." Sadly, when it comes to a carbike accident, no matter who is at fault, it's rarely the motorist that loses (a bike, even traveling at speed, is no match for a
1,000+lb.car)
With that in mind, I wonder who's really in danger.
In closing, as a commuting cyclist that owns two cars (and pays property taxes, tags, etc. on said cars), home owner in Douglas County (more property taxes) and a business owner who employs 20 people (guess what, more taxes). I'd like to remind Ms. Kelleher that the roads were built for all users, not just the ones with the biggest vehicles.
I ride my bike every day to clear my head, reduce pollution and cut costs. If we all obeyed the rules that were set before us (cyclists and motorists alike), I can't see that being a bad thing.

Cars present real danger
Meagan Kelleher's philippic on bicycle usage is embarrassing at best and downright incendiary at worst. To maintain the idiocy that bicyclists should suffer just because, as she states, "I had to stand in line for an hour then stand in line again to take the actual driving test" is absurd.
To further argue bikes are just as dangerous as cars is simply ludicrous (Meagan, go study the concepts of momentum and impulse, or perhaps I could
Welcome to a college campus, Meagan. People ride their bikes because it's good exercise and a damn efficient way to get to class quickly. I'm floored that you've chosen to blaspheme all cyclists simply because you want the whole road (and apparently many more cars) to yourself. I'm not sure whether it's arrogance or ignorance that lead to your diatribe, but leave us eco-friendly, fit, and happy cyclists alone. Go back to complaining about tuition.

Education will solve problem
Meaghan Kelleher, in her column or Nov. 7th, was concerned about bicyclists in traffic.
I understand her concern that some cyclists are unaware of traffic laws. Ms. Kelleher contends therefore that bicycles are "just as dangerous as cars are and create even more of a hazard" so they should be licensed.
Bicycles are smaller than motorized vehicles and less dangerous. Drivers of motorized vehicles (including cars, trucks, semi-trailers and construction equipment, among others) are licensed and insured because of a much greater potential to do harm.

Ms. Kelleher also said "There are few

laws in place for cyclists... " Kansas statutes 8-1586 to 8-1592 relate to bicycles.
These statutes give bicycles the same rights to travel by road as well as the same responsibilities to follow traffic laws as vehicles on the road. The heart of the issue should not be whether the cyclists are licensed and have paid fees and taxes, but instead should be an issue of education.

Parking department hears concerns
By Kyle Ramsey
kramsey@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Parking has become a big problem for some of Sara Henderson White's co-workers. As she puts it, students who work with her at the University Press of Kansas and don't have a parking permit are being penalized for coming to work.
It's a problem White brought before the University of Kansas' Parking Commission yesterday during its second annual public forum.
Seven attendees approached the podium. Among the issues addressed were the tow-away zone in front of the Museum of Natural History and parking availability for student employees who did not have University parking permits.
White asked the commission to consider reducing the cost of a parking permit for student employees of University Press, 2501 W.15th St.
White said many of the students who worked at University Press did not have parking permits because they found other ways to get to school or parked their cars in neighborhoods near campus.
Because there was no street-side parking near University Press, which is located on West Campus, students who drove to work had no place to park their cars.
The cost of a yellow permit, which is $85 for an annual pass, compounded with living expenses was a problem for some of her student co-workers, White said.
"Most kids who work for us are doing it because they really need the money." she said.
University Press typically employs 10 to 15 students, who make up about half the entire work force there, White said.
Students parking in the lot wouldn't be competing with other
staff members for spots because the lot is rarely full, she said.
Another issue involved accessibility to one of the state's most popular tourist attractions, the Museum of Natural History.
After opening the parking garage located north of the Kansas Union, University officials removed parking meters along Jayhawk Boulevard.
The metered spaces in front of the Museum of Natural History were converted into a tow-away zone.
The zone made it illegal for school buses and other vehicles to unload museum patrons in front of Dyche Hall.
"The Parking Department"
treats the Natural History museum like it's any other campus building." Dena Podrebarac said. "It isn't."
Podrebarac, an employee at the museum, asked the commission to consider changing the tow-away zone to a 10-minute loading zone.
Allen Ford, professor of business and chairman of the committee, and Donna Hultine, interim director of the Parking Department, led the discussion. Both assured each presenter their issues would be discussed at future parking meetings.

Senate looks to faculty to back new curriculum before presenting resolution to College Assembly
Proposal would require CLAS students to learn about U.S. diversity
By Caleb Nothwehr
cnothwehr@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Student Senate showed its support of a proposal that would require students in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences to take a class dealing with diversity within the United States.
The curriculum requirement would be similar to the non-Western Civilization class requirement.
Senate voted almost unanimously in favor of the resolution, which urges the College Assembly, the governing body of the college, to take immediate steps toward implementing the requirement.
Only a few senators voted against the resolution.
Supporters of the bill now plan to garner support from KU faculty before presenting the recommendation to the assembly at the beginning of next semester. The Board of Regents will make a final decision on the requirement.
"This type of requirement teaches students to think critically," said Karen Keith, member of the Multicultural Affairs committee and Tulsa, Okla., senior.
The proposal calls for a transparent class requirement, meaning the class fulfilling the diversity

diversity requirement would not replace the requirement for a non-Western Civilization class.
KU students and faculty made a similar resolution to the assembly in Spring 1998, but it failed because members of the assembly said the proposal was too vague.
"We want to present a solid report with student and faculty backup," Keith said.
While the resolution received support from Senate, some senators thought the proposal could
use tweaking before it heads to the assembly.
Michael Roessler, graduate senator, said the requirement should not be exclusive to diversity within the United States.
"We have too much U.S. history growing up in high school," Roessler said. "People could benefit from international diversity."
If the proposal passes the assembly, supporters are shooting to implement it by Fall 2003 or Fall 2004.

A bill to implement online voting in Student Senate elections was voted down in the Student Executive committee, which met an hour before the start of full Senate. Supporters of the idea plan to present a new online voting bill during the next legislative cycle. This would be the fourth piece of online voting legislation.

Heard on the Hill Iraq agrees to inspection
Compiled by Kelly McNearney. Kansas staff writer
Mohammad Al-Douri, Iraq's ambassador to the United Nations, said Iraq accepts the U.N. resolution to send weapons inspectors into that country. Inspectors will arrive in Baghdad Nov.18. How do you feel about Saddam Hussein agreeing to allow inspectors into Iraq?
"It would make me feel more safe, I'd rather have the resolutions passed." Dan Carroll, St. Louis, sophomore

"I'm sure they will find some weapons of mass destruction, but the fact that he's letting them in really makes me feel better about it. I'm against war. I'm glad that he's letting people in so that we can be sure that he doesn't have weapons, but in a peaceful way."

"Obviously he wants to avoid conflict. And as long as he does everything to abide by U.N. inspections, the U.S. shouldn't go to war and should stay out of it. I think as long as the U.S. abides by the U.N., things should go smoothly. If we do go to Iraq, it should be for humanitarian aid and liberating the Iraqi people."

UNITED NATIONS — Claiming Iraq was seeking the "path of peace," Suddam Hussein's government agreed yesterday to the return of international weapons inspectors, accepting a stringent U.N. resolution two days ahead of a deadline.
Although Iraq accepted the tough terms, President Bush warned he had "zero tolerance" for any Iraqi attempts to hide weapons of mass destruction and said a coalition of nations was ready to force Saddam to disarm.
Iraq's nine-page letter of acceptance was laced with anti-American and anti-Israeli statements, as well as stern warnings for U.N. weapons inspectors.
In contrast, Iraq's U.N. ambassador, Mohammed Al-Douri, said his government had chosen "the path of peace" and its acceptance had "no conditions, no reservations."
D. J. Watkins; Lawrence, freshman
Still, the harsh tone in Iraqi Foreign Minister Naji Sabri's letter to U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan and its warnings about how Baghdad expects inspectors to behave raised questions about Iraq's plans to cooperate with the resolution.
Annan, speaking to reporters in Washington after meeting with Bush, said he would wait to determine Iraq's intentions.
"I think the issue is not their acceptance, but performance on the ground," Annan said. "Let the inspectors go in, and I urge the Iraqis to cooperate with them and to perform."
Annan said the advance team of inspectors was scheduled to arrive in Baghdad on Nov. 18. They have until Dec. 23 to begin their work and must report to the Security Council 60 days later.
If Iraq fails to cooperate, the resolution orders inspectors to immediately notify the council, which will discuss a response.
By Dec. 8, Iraq must declare all its chemical, biological and nuclear programs, according to the terms of the resolution.
Al-Douri said his government had nothing to fear from inspections because "Iraq is clean."
In the letter, Sabri accused Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair of fabricating evidence that Iraq possessed or was on its way to producing nuclear weapons — and had already stockpiled biological and chemical weapons.
Under Security Council resolutions adopted after Iraq's 1990 invasion of Kuwait, U.N. inspectors must certify that Iraq's nuclear, chemical and biological weapons programs have been eliminated along with the long-range missiles to deliver them. Only then can sanctions against Iraq be lifted.
"The lies and manipulations of the American administration and British government will be exposed," Sabri said.
He also warned that Iraq planned to closely monitor the inspectors while they are in the country. In 1998, Baghdad accused inspectors of spying for the United States and Israel.
Iraq's acceptance culminates a two-month campaign that began with Bush's Sept. 12 speech to the U.N. General Assembly challenging world leaders to deal with Iraq's failure to comply with the international demands to disarm.
On Tuesday, Iraq's parliament rejected the resolution, but it has no power. Annan and others said they would wait for the official government response.
Bush declined to discuss the letter, though he thanked the U.N. Security Council for unanimously adopting the U.S.-backed resolution last Friday.
"We've heard this before from Saddam Hussein and the Iraqi regime," he said. "The U.N. resolution is binding on
White House spokesman Scott McClellan said the test of Iraq's compliance would come in Baghdad's actions.
Iraq, and the Iraqi regime, Saddam Hussein had no choice but to accept the resolution."
Officials in Russia, which has long-standing economic and political ties to Iraq, welcomed Saddam's decision to accept the return of inspectors.
"We were confident that Iraq would make this decision, which opens the way for a political resolution of the situation," Russian Foreign Minister Igor Ivanov said. "Now it is important that the international inspectors quickly return to Iraq," he said.
In Bughdad, state-run television announced Saddam's acceptance of the Security Council resolution two hours after Iraq's U.N. Ambassador Mohammed Al-Douri told the rest of the world.
Iraqi TV showed images of Saddam in a dark suit and tie, presiding over a meeting of his Revolutionary Command Council, made up of senior military officers. The picture was frozen on the screen while an announcer read the message recounting at length a history of Iraq's dispute with the United Nations.
China's deputy U.N. ambassador Zhang Yishan, the current Security Council president, notified the 14 other members of Iraq's acceptance.
"Members of the Security Council welcomed the correct decision by the Iraqi government," he said.
The advance team that will arrive in Iraq on Monday will be led by chief U.N. inspector Hans Blix, who is in charge of biological and chemical inspections, and Mohamed ElBaradei of the International Atomic Energy Agency, which is in charge of nuclear inspections
Bitx said he would not comment until he had read the letter.
The resolution allows inspectors to go anywhere at any time to search for weapons of mass destruction. It also warns that Iraq faces "serious consequences" if it doesn't comply.
Backpacking class offered

Kansan staff writer
When most people think of Kansas, they hardly think of the rugged terrain of the Kansas hills. But according to George Lottes, instructor of backpacking, Kansas has a lot of trails.
Lottes, who has been backpacking for about 40 years, teaches an 8-week backpacking class every semester at the University of Kansas.
"Backpacking is a fun class because it is a nice way to get people out." Lotites said. "It's something that you can do all of your life." Besides teaching about what type of equipment students should use, the class teaches about first aid and camping techniques.

At the end of this semester, Engel and Standish went with 22 other students on a two-day backpacking trip at Perry Lake. They hiked five miles through the woods to a campsite. They set up tents and spent the night.
This class, HSES 108, is worth one credit hour and will also be offered next semester. As of yesterday, there were five slots still open.
"When you camp you get to be more out in the wilderness and close to nature," she said.
Engel said that, although it was rainy and cold, she had a good time.

The alleged operations chief of Southeast Asian terror group Jemaah Islamiyah fled to Pakistan and may have been replaced by the brother of the prime suspect in the Bali bombings, Indonesia's national police chief said yesterday.
The revelation, echoed by the country's intelligence chief, appeared to bolster allegations that the al-Qaida-linked group was behind the Oct. 12 blast that killed more than 190 people and injured hundreds more.
Terror group may have new chief
The chief suspect in the blast, a former motorcycle mechanic identified only as Amrozi, appeared in Bali yesterday in a bizarre, 40-minute interview with national police chief Gen. Da'i Bachtiar.
Laughing and waving to reporters who were invited to
Bachtiar told reporters it was "very possible" that the suspect's older brother, Mukhlas, is serving as Jemaah Islamyah's new operations chief.
Several security experts have said Hamball—the most-wanted man in Southeast Asia

According to authorities, Amrozi confessed to being a field commander for Jemaah Islamiyah, which reportedly seeks a massive Islamic state across Southeast Asia.
Officials have said Amrozi — arrested last week after police traced his vehicle to the Ball blasts — had admitted he owned the explosives-packed Mitsubishi minivan.

After the meeting, Bachtiar said Amrozi "told me that he wants to fight against those who oppress the Muslims. He feels that Muslims have been oppressed."

Speakersteach culture

Carol Dias da Silva spent three hours Monday sharing her life with a group of about 10 women.
The women, part of a local study group, were utilizing a University of Kansas program that offers presentations given by international students to classes, organizations and community groups.
The International Speaker Service is offered through the Office of International Student and Scholar Services. Dias da Silva, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, junior, is the cultural program coordinator at the Office. She said the speaker service was an educational tool.
"We get to teach people about our culture, our beliefs and our values," she said. "It brings people together."
She said the speaker program gave international students an opportunity to educate others about their background.
Massissou Hauhoura has given presentations since 2000 to Lawrence schools and the Douglas County Senior Center.
"It brings people together."

Hathoura, N'Djamena, Chad graduate student, said he enjoyed the enthusiasm and curiosity of the students who listened to his presentations.
"They're eager to learn about other cultures and other people," he said.
Hathoura usually talks about Chad, his home country, when he presents to students.
"I come from a country that is not well known," Hathaura said. "Even with my classmates, I have to help them find Chad on the map."
Dias da Silva said student speakers presented a variety of topics, including art, cooking, politics and religion. Two students gave Latin dance lessons to a Spanish class, she said. A junior high school teacher requested someone to teach Chinese to a student.
The international students in the program give presentations on a volunteer basis, she said. The service is free.

Hathoura, who worked as a teacher for 11 years and as a school supervisor for four years before coming to KU on a Fulbright scholarship, said he was eager to give presentations as a way to give back to the Lawrence community. He is a graduate teaching assistant in the French department.
"I learn more than I have given," Hathoura said. "If there is an opportunity, I'm willing to do that."
The program's files date back to 1993, but Dias da Silva said she had heard the program started in the 1970s.
Anyone interested in inviting an international student speaker should contact Dias da Silva at 864-3617 or at carol@ku.edu. International students who want to become involved with the program also should contact Dias da Silva.

Despite the doubt surrounding the legality of the county's new ruling, Pee Wee Wright, owner of Wright Liquor Store in Kansas City, Kan., opened his doors for business Sunday.
"I did as much business this Sunday from 12 (p.m.) to 7 (p.m.) that I usually do on Saturday from 9 (a.m.) to 11 (p.m.)," he said. "I will continue to stay open on Sundays unless I hear something from the state."
Adam Berry, Bonner Springs junior, said he did not see any problems with the new ruling. But, he said he probably wouldn't take much advantage of being able to buy liquor in Kansas on Sundays.
"I don't usually drink on Sundays because it's more of a recovery day," he said. "But if I do ever want to drink on Sundays, it will be nice not to have to drive to Missouri."

Pageant
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
The United States Teen competition, which enrolls girls between the ages of 15 and 19, is not Wright's first taste of success. In 2001, the Kansas Teen USA title fell just out of reach when she snagged first runner-up. She landed a top-six spot in the same competition the following year.
Pageants have been occupying Wright's spare time for the last 15 years. Wright's mother, Trudy, enrolled her in an American Coed pageant to bring out the personality of a shy 4-year-old. Trudy, who left Shawnee by car yesterday en route to Charlotte, said she hadn't lost enthu-
slaim for Wright's competitions over the years.
Since winning the Miss Kansas United States Teen crown, Wright has worn it at parades, church functions and other events around the state. She also speaks out against drug and alcohol abuse among teens, which has led to her working closely with the Drug Abuse Resistance Education program.
The busy schedule hasn't stopped Wright from spending time with her boyfriend of one year, Shawnee freshman Travis Chavez. Chavez said Wright's busy schedule was a means to an end that he fully supported.
Wright said claiming the national title was a goal but not an obligation for her to be satisfied with her performance. She said she hadn't thought about it much, but winning would probably require her to take a hiatus from school. For the pageant, the first place winner receives a crown, trophy and sash along with a fur coat, $1,000 gift certificate to Debbrah's, a pageant clothing supplier, and other prizes.
"I'd have to take some summer school to get caught up, but it would be worth it," she said.
Although Wright cannot enter another pageant program until her Kansas reign ends in March, she's already mentally preparing herself to enter the Miss USA pageant later on.

Sebelius announces state analysis project
The Associated Press
TOPEKA — Gov-elect Kathleen Sebelius has created five teams to conduct her long-promised top-to-bottom review of state government. The Democrat's team leaders include a corporate executive and a Republican legislator.
Sebelius said she hopes the teams will find some efficiencies quickly enough that she can include them in her budget recommendations she will send legislators for fiscal year 2004
But Sebelius also said the review will be ongoing and examine eliminating, consolidating and restructuring programs and entire agencies.
Eventually, she said, it could result in a permanent commission with independent auditors.
Teams will examine social services, general government, public safety, economic development, and agriculture and natural resources agencies. A sixth team for education has yet to be named.
Sebelius had a Statehouse news conference to outline her plans. She callue of the groups a Kansas Budget Efficiency Savings Team, or Kansas BEST for short. She expects team meetings to begin next week.
"They are not to be hampered by some kind of preset conclusions, and we really want these recommendations to be as creative and strategic as possible." Sebellius said.
While she said she would include recommendations in her budget proposals for fiscal 2004. Sebelius again said she will leave budget problems in the current
year to outgoing Gov. Bill Graves
year to outgoing Gov. Bill Graves.
Those problems include a projected deficit of $310 million on June 30, which probably will require cuts in the state's $4.4 billion budget. Graves already trimmed $41 million in spending after legislators approved $252 million in tax increases in May.
"The governor is working on that," she said, "I will continue to work with the governor. My focus is on '04. His focus is on '03."
Heading the economic development team is Lt. Gov.elect John Moore, a former executive vice president for the Cessna Aircraft Co. Leader of the general government team is Howard Fricke, chairman of the Security Benefit Group financial services company.
The leader of the public safety team is Sen. David Adkins, R-Leawood, former chairman of the

"I was committed to get this process up and running as
quickly as possible.' Kathleen Sebelius Kansas Governor-elect
Kansas Youth Authority, which drafted legislation overhauling the juvenile justice system in 1996. He also narrowly lost a GOP primary race to Attorney General-elect Phill Kline.
Sebelius said participants will be volunteers and noted that Kansas law allows her to tap state agencies' staff for support.
"I was committed to get this process up and running as quickly as possible," she said. "And the state clearly doesn't have additional resources to spend doing it, so we wanted to put together a process that could work quickly and not cost anything."
Sebelius planned a news conference on Thursday to announce a toll-free telephone hot line and e-mail address that residents can use to contact the teams.
She said each team may have public hearings, but said much of their discussions will be closed.
"We want to make sure that they can operate with as much independence and ingenuity as possible, and sometimes that's a big hamper if they're being observed by people they may be critical of," she said.
During her gubernatorial campaign. Sebelius promised the top-to-bottom review of government when asked how she would handle the state's budget problems. Some legislators, particularly Republicans, who have majorities in both legislative houses, were skeptical that the effort would result in significant savings.
Outgoing Lt. Gov Gary Sherer, a Republican, said he applauds Sebelius for having "new eyes looking at old ways." But he said he doesn't think it will help her deal with a projected budget deficit of $310 million on June 30.
"Are there better ways of doing things? Yeah," Sherrer said. "Are there $250 million worth of better ways of doing things?" Doubtful."
Sebelius acknowledged that skepticism and that some critics view the review as a mere "PR gimmick."
Jury deliberates Carr trial verdict
The Associated Press
WICHITA — Jurors will begin deliberations today on whether to recommend two brothers convicted of killing five people, including four shot execution style in a snow-covered soccer field, be put to death.
In their closing arguments yesterday, defense attorneys said just one juror can decide to show Reginald and Jonathan Carr mercy and save their lives. Should they not receive a death sentence, the brothers would spent at least 50 years in prison if given the minimum possible sentence for their crimes, the attorneys said.
"Any one of you can decide to save this young man's life," said Tom Evans, Jonathan Carr's attorney. "You can decide there is some good there. There is something worth saving. You don't have an opportunity to do that very often in this life — to save another life. Our instinct is to preserve life. It is there in all of us." Jay Greeno, the attorney for Reginald Carr, said his client will be 25 on Thursday and is the product of an abusive household. "This crime had to be committed by a damaged individual or individuals," Greeno said. "We just don't grow up that way."
Jurors convicted the brothers for the Dec. 15, 2000, deaths of Aaron Sander, 29, Brad Heyka, 27, Jason Befort, 28, and Heather Muller, 25. All four were shot execution style in the back of the head as they knelt side-by-side in the field. They were also convicted of first-degree murder for the shooting of another woman, Ann Walenta, four days before the quadruple murder.
Prosecutors urged jurors to show the brothers the same mercy they showed the four killed in the field.
"What murder would warrant the death penalty, if it is not this? It defies reason to think tortuous slaughter of these four young people who gave no fight," said Deputy District Attorney Kim Parker. "They submitted hoping for life and they got death. You cannot bring these young people back, but you can you can go back and deliver a just and legal punishment."
The brothers were also convicted of attempted first-degree murder of Befort's girlfriend, then a 25-year-old teacher, who also was shot in the head but survived, as well as forcing the five friends to engage in sex acts with each other and repeatedly raping the women.
District Attorney Noia Foulston told jurors in her closing arguments the brothers were convicted of 23 sexual crimes. She said the victims were made to suffer as no one should suffer and were humiliated before they died.
"That crime made their lives end in the most gruesome and vile way," Foulston said. "It made their lives end after degrading them."
Greeno told jurors that Reginald Carr should be locked up forever. But he said jurors should also think about the impact his execution would have on Carr's three young children.
"If you execute Reginald Carr, you create a whole new set of victims," Greene said.
Evans urged jurors to remember Jonathan Carr is only 22 and had no serious criminal record prior to these offenses.
A radiologist testified yesterday that brain scans prepared for the Carr's defense showing alleged brain damage had been manipulated and the results skewed.
"There is good in this young man," Evans said. "He is not a monster. He behaved monstrously that night."
Dr. Norman Pay said his analysis showed the brothers both had normal brains. He testified for the state as a rebuttal witness in the penalty phase of the capital murder trial.
Juror-misconduct claim may cause re-trial
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Kan. — Lawyers say there was misconduct by the jury foreman in an unusual criminal defamation case against a small free distribution newspaper and they've asked a judge to grant a new trial or dismiss the case.
The case decided last July involved erroneous claims published in The New Observer that Carol Marinovich, mayor of the Unified Government of Kansas City, Kan., and Wyandotte County, actually lives in the more affluent Johnson County.
The mayor and her husband, Wyandotte County District Judge Ernest Johnson, live in the Rosedale area of Kansas City, Kan. Both are required by law to live in the county where they serve.
The six-member jury which deliberated four hours after two days of testimony found Observer Publications Inc. as well as publisher David Carson and editor Edward H. Powers J guilty on seven counts each of misdemeanor libel. The penalty could be up to a year in jail.
Attorneys for the defendants told Judge Tracy Klinginsmith of Jackson County, Kan., on Tuesday about the alleged juror misconduct. They said that the foreman, Ronald D. Myers II, failed to disclose that he was dating an intern for the Wyandotte County district attorney's office, which filed the defamation charges.
Further, they said the intern is related to administrative assistants for Judge Johnson and for Dennis Hays, the Unified Government administrator. They argued that the jorir ties to the intern and the intern's ties to Hays and Johnson tilted the foreman toward the prosecution.
The defense attorneys told the judge what 20 witnesses would testify to regarding the alleged juror misconduct.
Assistant special prosecutor Pat Henderson of Atchison argued that even if juror misconduct occurred, Carson and Powers failed to show that their rights were substantially prejudiced. Henderson said that if the defendants' attorneys had asked more thorough questions during jury selection, they would have discovered the relationships.
"That is absurd."
Mark Birmingham
Attorney of defendant Edward H. Powers
Jr.
Henderson also said at least one defense attorney knew of the relationship between Myers and the intern. Henderson asserted that the defense did not say anything so that it would have the basis for an appeal should there be a conviction.
"That is absurd," said Mark Birmingham, Powers' attorney.
He said that the defense did not become aware of the relationship until the jury had selected Myers as foreman and had begun deliberating. He said they could not verify it without hiring a private investigator.
Klinginsmith, who was appointed to hear the case after Wyandotte County judges recused themselves, said he would examine transcripts of the jury selection to determine what questions were asked. He scheduled a conference call with the attorneys for Thursday to let them know what he found. He could rule then whether the
issue of juror misconduct warranted a formal hearing.
Powers and Carson are both disbarred lawyers who use their periodically distributed tabloid to disseminate their political views. They have long been critical of Marinovich and Nick Tomasic, the Wyandotte County district attorney. Tomascite filed the defamation case the day after a primary election last year in which Marinowich led a field of five candidates in her re-election bid.
After being assigned to the case, Klinginsmith appointed a special prosecutor because of a "history of contentiousness" between the defendants and the district attorney.
Criminal defamation laws are rare in the United States. To be constitutional, they require a showing of "actual malice," meaning that a story would not just have to be wrong but that the publisher would have to know that or show reckless disregard for its truth or falsity. At the trial, the defense said Powers and Carson believed the report that Marinovich lived outside the county was true.
Police say suspects familiar with victims
Three men held in fatal Garden City robbery
GARDEN CITY, Kan. (AP) Three Liberal men suspected of robbing a Garden City family and killing one victim were in custody yesterday after the third suspect surrendered in Salina, police said.
At least two of the men were acquainted with the victims and had visited their home before Monday's pre-dawn robbery, according to police.

The third suspect, Ngum Pham, 48, a parolee convicted of two Wichita homicides in 1982, was arrested Tuesday afternoon at a pool hall in Liberal, Uttz said.
All three suspects worked at National Beef in Liberal, and at least two formerly worked close to Garden City at the IBP packing plant near Holcomb, according to police.

DEADLY STORMS
Tenn. declared disaster area
The Associated Press
MOSSY GROVE, Tenn. President Bush declared 16 Tennessee counties disaster areas yesterday, freeing millions in federal aid for a state that lost 16 people in weekend tornadoes that cut a deadly path across five states.
Federal Emergency Management Agency Director Joe Allbaugh brought the news to still-dazed victims in this mountain community 40 miles northwest of Knoxville.
"You are brave souls," said Allbaugh, who spoke with Bush by telephone as he walked amid the mud and smoke from burning debris in what was once a neighborhood of two dozen brick houses and trailers. The tornado demolished half of them.
Mike Williams, 24, who lost his father and grandmother in the storm, said he was thinking only about cleaning up the rubble of his father's home.
"That is really the last thing on my mind right now," Williams said of the federal aid, "but I am glad that they care."
State and federal assessment teams were also checking damage
in Alabama, Mississippi and Ohio, where the storms also claimed lives. In all, 35 people were killed in the storms.
The Tennessee Emergency Management Agency said more than 1,200 homes were damaged and 117 others were destroyed. At least 15 public buildings and 43 businesses also were damaged.
State Farm Insurance Co., one of the major carriers in the state, had nearly 1,500 claims for homes and 2,300 claims for autos in Tennessee. Spokesman Bill Wright said he placed the value of State Farm claims alone at $29.5 million.
Seven people were killed Sunday in surrounding Morgan County by a F3-rated tornado, with winds up to 200 mph, that cut a path four miles long and up to a half-mile wide. Five of the victims died in Mossy Grove.
Allbaugh and Gov. Don Sundquist arrived by helicopter in a field next to New Life Apostolic Church, where 80 parishioners had gathered for Sunday night services when the storm struck.
"We grabbed our kids, threw them under the pews and everybody from the littlest kid who
could talk to the oldest person in the building began praying," said Michelle Pemberton, 38, the minister's wife. "And the Lord kept his hand upon us."
The church was damaged, but no one inside was hurt, including Bobby and Linda Hester, whose mobile home across the street was blown away.
Volunteer contractors help clear debris as donations arrived from around the region — clothes, kerosene heaters, and so much bottled water that "if the Mississippi River runs dry, we have water," said David Acres, missions director with the Big Emory Baptist Association.
In Mississippi, where one person was killed, state officials said about 800 homes and businesses were damaged by the storms.
A preliminary survey in Alabama, where 12 died, showed at least 250 homes were destroyed and more than 300 were heavily damaged. The damage number is expected to climb.
The Red Cross revised its damage estimate in 17 Ohio counties. The agency said 152 homes were destroyed, 156 had major damage and 388 had minor damage.

Archdiocease ordered to reveal abuse cases
BOSTON - A judge ordered the Archdiocese of Boston on yesterday to turn over thousands more internal files detailing how it responded to allegations of sexual abuse by dozens of priests.
Lawyers for alleged victims of clergy sexual abuse hope the documents show a pattern of negligence in the way the archdiocese handled complaints.
"That's what these cases are all about. Was there protection for children? Did the archdiocese protect kids?" attorney Roderick MacLeish Jr. said.
Superior Court Judge Constance Sweeney threatened unspecified sanctions unless church lawyers produce the documents on 62 priests by Nov.22.
"I don't want to deal with punishment, but if I have to I will." Sweeney said.
Sweeney in September ordered the archdiocese to hand over personnel files on 85
priests, a ruling upheld by an appeals court last month. Since then, MacLeish said, documents had trickled in at an unacceptably slow pace. He also complained of documents being illegible.
Archdiocese attorney Wilson D. Rogers III said retrieving, reviewing, and turning over documents would take longer than Nov. 22.
The ruling came in a hearing on a suit filed by six men who claimed they were abused by the Rev. Paul Shanley, 71. The archdiocese faces about 300 similar suits.
Shanley, 71, was indicted in June on 10 counts of child rape and six counts of indecent assault and battery for allegedly abusing boys from 1979 to 1989. The boys were 6 to 15 years old. Shanley has pleaded innocent.
Separately, prosecutors dropped a criminal case against defrocked priest John Geoghan after the alleged victim said he wouldn't testify in court.
Six defendants sentenced in 1969 York, Pa., race riot
The Associated Press
YORK, Pa. — Six white men were handed sentences of up to three years in prison Wednesday in the shooting death of a black woman during a 1969 race riot that has haunted the city for the past 33 years.
The defendants apologized before they were sentenced, but the victim's daughter complained
that none of them expressed any sorrow for the slaying of Lillie Belle Allen until they were in court, where an apology might lessen their punishment.
All six men pleaded guilty in August, and some testified for the prosecution in the trial earlier this year of York's former mayor and two other white men. The mayor was acquitted; his co-defendants were found guilty.
Allen, 27, of Aiken, S.C., was killed amid 10 days of violence between blacks and whites in York. During the riots, a white police officer, Henry Schaad, was also killed, more than 60 people were injured and 100 were arrested.
Allen was shot to death at twilight after she got out of her family's car to try to help her panicking sister, Hattie Dickson, steer
the stalled vehicle away from a mob of armed white gang members.
Yesterday, Arthur Messersmith was sentenced to 18 months to three years.
Messersmith had faced up to nine years in prison for attempted murder and conspiracy.
Rick Knouse, William Ritter and Clarence Lutzinger were sentenced to nine to 23 1/2 months
in jail, and Chauncey Gladfelter and Tom Smith got three to 231/2 months in jail. The five, all of whom pleaded guilty to conspiracy, had faced up to two years behind bars.
The sentences disappointed Allen's family.
"I feel like it's a slap in my face and my children's face that they did not get the maximum," said Dickson, 56.

China's next leader re-elected to country's Central Committee
The Associated Press
BEIJING (AP) — The man expected to become China's next leader is the only top politician reelected to the Communist Party's Central Committee, the government announced today — the most concrete sign yet of his ascent.
The official Xinhua News Agency said current President Jiang Zemin was not on the list, indicating his expected retirement from a formal party role.
"Ijang Zemin, the core of the third-generation leadership of the Communist Party of China, and five of his colleagues in the party's top decision-making body, are not on a new Central Committee of the CPC elected here this morning." Xinhua said.
It specifically identified Hu as "the only member" of the last party congress' Standing Committee to be re-elected. The Standing Committee is the inner sanctum of party leadership and, by extension, the leadership of China.
Jiang, 76, general secretary of the Communist Party since he
replaced Zhao Ziyang in a 1989 purge after the Tiananmen Square democracy protests, will remain president until March. But the party position is the wellspring of his power, and his departure from it makes his retirement as president certain.
The moves, which most expect to launch a younger generation of leaders to shepherd China through a period of dizzying economic change, come at the end of the congress, the once-in-five-years meeting of the party that has ruled China since its insurgents took the mainland in 1949.
Hu, 59, was designated as Jiang's heir apparent by the late senior leader Deng Xiaooping. His ascent has been widely expected, though little is known about him. He has taken on a higher profile in recent months and traveled to the United States in the spring, a signal that he was being readied to take the reins of power.
Delegates to the party's weeklong 16th National Congress also are expected to amend its constitution to formally endorse Jiang's invitation for entrepreneurs to join—an effort to keep the party
in control of a fast-changing China.
The leadership change appears to be the first orderly transfer of power in the history of communist China. Order, always an obsession of the ruling communists, has taken on new economic importance as the country opens to foreign investment as part of its "socialist market economy."
China's rulers say they want to convey a sense of calm so that money from abroad will keep pouring in, raising living standards and keeping people happy or at least unwilling to oppose party rule.
While Jiang is said to be preparing to give up his formal posts, he is also believed to have shepherded proteges onto the party's next ruling body and into other high posts in order to retain influence over a new government.
through the list of Central Committee members was not immediately available Friday, it will hold clues as to which of China's senior leaders have come out ahead and which are being shown the door.

U.S., India set up group to boost high technology trading
The Associated Press
NEW DELHI. India (AP) The United States and India agreed yesterday to increase trade of high-tech goods including nuclear and military equipment, a senior U.S. official said.
The agreement comes after months of improved trade ties between the two countries since
ne Sept. 11 attacks. After the attacks, President Bush withdrew sanctions on India and Pakistan to help the U.S. war on terrorism.
After two days of meetings with Indian officials, Under Secretary of Commerce Kenneth I. Juster said increased high-technology trade would reflect their closer ties and common strategic interest
India and the United States
also agreed to create the India-U.S. High Technology Cooperation Group, which will identify ways to increase trade in dual-use goods and technologies. It is first scheduled to meet early next year.
"We discussed cooperative steps in the civilian space and nuclear sectors. We are takings steps to case legal and obligatory regulations on high technology
trade in these areas," Juster said.
After India, and then Pakistan, conducted nuclear weapons tests in 1998, the United States suspended military contacts and banned all sales of dual-purpose equipment and technology.
Under President Bush's order last year, the export policy reverted to previous rules that demand exports be reviewed on a
The 1998 sanctions banned the United States from providing dual-use technology to about 200 Indian companies and state entities.
That number dropped sharply after Sept. 11, and Juster told journalists Wednesday that most of the remaining companies had been taken off the list.
Juster held talks with Defense
Minister George Fernandes National Security Adviser Brajesh Mishra and addressed business leaders of the Confederation of Indian Industry.
He said the U.S. delegation discussed obstacles to increased trade, including tariff barriers and ways of lowering them to make American technologies more attractive to Indian companies.

Kansas loses second time in five to A&M
By Jason Hwang

Kansan sportswriter
Earlier this week, Kansas volleyball coach Ray Bechard said his team was getting closer to beating Texas A&M.
Unfortunately, the Jayhawks must wait another year for another chance to knock off the Aggies.
The fayhawks (17-7 overall, 8-7 Big 12 Conference) lost their second straight match with a 3-2 (26-30, 30-27, 30-26, 16-30, 12-15) loss to the Aggies (18-7, 10-6). Kansas is now 0-15 all-time versus the Aggies.
Freshman middle blocker Josiane Lima had a career-high 20 kills and 13 assists, her ninth double-double. Sophomore outside hitter Lindsey Morris also had a career high in kills, with 16. Junior outside hitter Sarah Rome also had her ninth double-double with 13 kills and 13 assists. Freshman setter Andi Rozum had a career high 59 assists, and now has the all-time Kansas freshman assists record with 968, passing Leslie Steinert's 1992 mark of 923.
Trailing 7-5 in game one, Kansas scored eight of the next nine points before an Aggie timeout. With Kansas leading 16-12, Texas A&M took seven of eight points, capturing a 19-17 lead, and held on in a game that included six serv-

Freshmen star against Sweden-based Vikings in exhibition debut

Leila Mengüç, junior guard, slaps the ball away from Solna forward Anna Hofstrom before she can pass it to a teammate. Mengüç scored six points and had a steal to help the Jayhawks beat the Vikings 61-56.
The Tamara Ransburg Show officially hit Lawrence last night.
The 6-foot-4 freshman scored, rebounded, blocked shots and generally made life miserable for the Sweden-based Solna Vikings in the first half of the Jayhawks' 61-56 exhibition victory at Allen Fieldhouse last night.
While the victory wasn't an official win for the Jayhawks, it marked the first Kansas triumph since Dec. 29 of last year.
Ransburg, who finished with 14 points, 10 rebounds, two blocks and three steals, was representative of a young Jayhawk team that appeared much more athletic than a year ago.
And Kansas needed every last drop of that youthful energy.
The Vikings, who lost by 40 or more against both Kansas State and Missouri in the last five days, remained close throughout the contest.
The Jayhawks jumped to an early lead as Ransburg and freshman center Crystal Kemp scored the Jayhawks' first six points. Two baskets by sophomore Blair Waltz, another by Ransburg and an acrobatic layup by sophomore transfer Aquanita Burras gave the Jayhawks a 10-2 lead less than four minutes into the game.
But the Vikings refused to fade that
easily. Led by forward Marie Molander's six points in four minutes, Solna went on an 8-2 run, cutting Kansas' lead to 12-10, the closest the Vikings would get.
The Jayhawks were never able to shake the veteran Solna team despite Ransburg's 12 first-half points, and the Vikings trailed just 31-25 at halftime.
After the second half began, Kemp
fought off a nasty case of first-game jitters that had plagued her before the game and into the first half, despite reassurance from Washington before tip-off.
"Poor Crystal," coach Marian Washington told reporters after the game. We had a session before we even got to pre-game meal."
Once Kemp, the Jayhawks' strongest
player, settled down, the Vikings had no luck stopping her. She banged and bullied her way to 10 points and three rebounds in the second half and finished with 15 points and six rebounds.
Washington said the two freshmen would be a strength for the Jahawks

The loss of senior guards Selena Scott and K.C. Hilgenkamp left a void for a corps of inexperienced players to fill on the Kansas women's basketball team.
Last night's performance from the heirs to the backcourt throne gave fans a little something extra to take home with them.
Junior Leila Menguç and sophomore Aquanita Burras took charge right from the opening tip. Menguç ended the night with 6 points and two rebounds, opting to pass instead of score as she took just three shots in the contest.
Burras, who transferred to Kansas after a year at Central Arizona Community College, had an impressive Jayhawk debut with 8 points and seven rebounds. Coach Marian Washington was pleased with guard play as a whole, but Mengüg's ability to take control of the young team in its first game was what caught her eye.
"I was pleased with Leila's performance as well as
Aqua," Washington said. "We didn't turn the ball over that much. I just really thought it's the best performance (Leila's) had since she's been here in terms of some pressure and handling it."
Burras' three-for-10 performance from the field was worse than the 65 percent she shot last year at Central Arizona, but she was pleased with her first game in crimson and blue and realized there was work to be done.
"In practice, I wasn't doing all the stuff I was doing in the game," Burras said. "Basically what I have to just work on is seeing both man-to-man on defense."
Mengtic is the leader by default in the backcourt by having the most seniority, but said she felt confident in the abilities of Burras and sophomore Brandi McGinest to help as floor generals.
"Aquanita was ready to step up and take the role if I wasn't on the court and that was great," Menguc said. "Brandi stepped in and brought defense right away, and that's exactly what we needed from her. We got a couple of fast breaks from her, and that's exactly what we want. I really appreciate that they had my

Face-off: a fantasy football challenge
By Ryan Greene and Harrison Hill
rgreene@kansan.com
Kansan Sportswriter and former Kansas football
player
For the final virtual face off of the season, the Kansas Jayhawks found a new virtual head coach, and his name is Harrison Hill.
"Watch out for Jake Letourneau he is a beast. Greene is gonna find out soon why we call him The Predator." Hill said. Greene would be playing against the Jayhawks for the first time this year, playing as the Oklahoma State Cowboys.
Hill, a former standout Jayhawk wide receiver, took over the reigns in what would have been the final home game of his illustrious Kansas career.
"I feel all dirty not being the Jayhawks," Greene said. "But he's a football player. Sure, he rules the gridiron at Memorial Stadium, but I rule the EA Sportsgridiron." First Quarter
The Jayhawks took the opening kick, and Bill Whittemore led the team down the field with a flurry of passes.
"This is too easy, I might as well just close my eye for the rest of this one," Greene said. "At first I thought he was a ringer because he said his roommate played this game all the time, but I guess I was wrong."
Whittemore converted on a sneak on fourth-and-one at the Oklahoma State 39-yard line, and then hit Byron Gasaway for 20 yards into the Cowboy red zone. That's where the drive would end with an incompletion on fourth-and-five at the Oklahoma State eight-yard line. The Cowboys quickly responded with a drive of their own and a six-yard score on a scramble by quarterback Josh Fields.
FACEOFF CONTESTANTS
On Kansas' next possession, Hill pulled all the tricks out of the bag, attempting a fake punt on his own 20-yard line, but the toss from punter Curtis Ansel fell short. Oklahoma State quickly capitalized with another Fields touchdown run, giving Oklahoma State an early 14-0 lead. A quick six-play, 65-yard drive saw Whittemore hit

The Jayhawk defense showed up (finally) on the next Oklahoma State drive, and Jake Letourneau started his big day by picking a Fields throw down the middle, setting Kansas up at the Oklahoma State 17-yard line. To end

Columnist crusading for Luke as quarterback
Apparently, I'm on a one-man crusade.
I keep writing that Kansas football coach Mark Mangino should start second-year quarterback Brian Luke. I keep saying Luke needs the experience for next year — when he's Bill Whittemore's back-up — and beyond.
Mangino was neither reading nor listening last week, starting fifth-year senior Jonas Weatherbie against Nebraska. Weatherbie played well, throwing a 50-yard touchdown to Byron Gasaway, before tearing a ligament in his right knee late in the first quarter.
That decision made sense, as Dyer is
SPORTS COMMENTARY
With just one true quarterback on the depth chart, Mangino said Sunday that he would make junior Zach Dyer the back-up quarterback if Whittimore couldn't play against the Cowboys.
Luke replaced Weatherbie against the Cornhuskers but split time with fellow second-year freshman Greg Heaggans, who hadn't played quarterback in a game since high school and didn't throw a pass against Nebraska.

the most experienced Jayhawk quarterback. Well, that's not exactly true because Dyer hasn't been a quarterback since the sixth week of the season. Dyer was moved to safety and is the Jayhawks' sixth-leading tackler since starting on defense against the Colorado Buffaloes.
Mangino changed his tune Tuesday, saying Dyer would start Saturday if Whitmore was still out with an injury. Moving Dyer from the hunter to the hunted is a good call, but starting him this weekend just pushes Mangino's rebuilding project back a bit farther.
Dyer has played well at safety. But if he

OXFORD, Ohio — Two Miami University assistant football coaches were suspended yesterday after one was charged with assaulting a fan and another acknowledged damaging a coaches' box at Marshall.
Coach Terry Hoepper apologized yesterday, saying things had
gotten out of control when fans rushed the field following Marshall's last-second, 36-34 win over its Mid-American Conference rival.
Hoeppner took two university police officers with him for extra protection on the field, anticipating a volatile situation.
"It's scary," said Hoeppner, who hadn't slept following the
bus ride back from West Virginia. "I had more police protection around me last night, and that shouldn't be necessary. We've lost a little bit of our perspective."

Men's Golf
Marshall named Big 12 golfer for Oct.
with two top-10 finishes in October, Kansas men's golfer Chris Marshall has been named the Big 12 Conference Golfer of the Month for October.
Marshall, a senior from Stanley, tied for second at the Purina-Missouri Bluffs Classic Oct. 8 and tied for eighth at The Nelson-Stanford Invitational Oct. 27.
"I appreciate the honor," Mar
shall said in a statement. "I am very pleased with the way I have been playing lately. I hope to use this award and my recent play as momentum for the spring season."
Marshall averaged 69.33 strokes per round in October. He shot under par on four of the six rounds he played, making par on the other two rounds. He moved
from 68th to 34th in Golfweek magazine's rankings with his performance during the month.
"I am very excited about Marshall this accomplishment for Chris."
PETER BURKE
head coach Ross Randall said. "Nobody works harder than Chris, and I feel he is very deserving of this award."

Marshall is averaging 70.73 strokes per round this season first in Kansas history. Ryan Vermeer holds the record with a 71.31 average.

Two high school seniors have signed letters of intent to join the Kansas women's golf team next year.
Amanda Costner, of Claremore (Okla.) High School, and Kelly Birdseill, of Xavier Prep High School in Mesa, Ariz., will join coach Megan Menzel's team in the fall.
Costner won the 2002 Oklahoma Class 5A state championship, a year after placing second at the tournament.
She has also competed in the Westfield PGA Championship, the USGA Junior Girls Championship and placed fifth in the 2002 Williams LPGA Pre-Qualifier.
"We will look for Amanda to step in and play right away for us next season." Menzel said in a press release. "She has good experience and is a proven winner at all levels."
Birdsell was the 2001 PGA Junior Series Player of the Year and is captain of her high school team.

St. Louis offense grapples with injuries
Rams doing well with Bulger at QB, Warner to return soon
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — Kurt Warner's not happy sitting one more week because of a broken pinkie, but he's adamant that the St. Louis Rams don't have a quarterback controversy.
The two-time N F L M V P, realizing he has nothing
G
to gain, has been careful to say all the right things this week. Although he wants to play, he won't fan the fire that's been building in town with every victory that Marc Bulger, the former third-stringer, has helped produce.
This is how crazy it's gotten: Several fans erroneously thought they saw Bulger shoving Warner at the end of Sunday's 28-24 come-from-behind victory over the Chargers, flooding call-in shows and Internet sites with rumors of the rift. Instead it was former Rams backup Paul Justin giving the injured star a playful push, as if to say it was his turn to offer congratulations, after Warner had embraced Bulger.
"When I first heard it, it was making it sound as if Paul wasn't even there," Warner said. "How do you miss a whole individual?"
Bulger gets a chance to pull the team back to 500 after an 0-5 start on Monday night against the Bears. It would be his fifth
straight victory, while the Rams were 0-4 with Warner at quarterback.
Warner threw only one touchdown pass to go with eight interceptions, but had to face some of the NFL's best defenses behind a shaky offensive line. Bulger has benefited from the return to health of guard Adam Timmerman and tackle Orlando Pace, plus a more settled John St. Clair at the other tackle.
"It looks like a no-win situation," Warner said yesterday. "They want you to either criticize Marc or walk around and brag about yourself, and I'm not going to do either one of those things.
"You let the rumors and the controversy fly,but you know what the bottom line is at the end of the day."
Warner's wife, Brenda, also addressed the quarterback issue. The couple appeared at a news conference to announce the second annual "Warner's Warm-up," a coat collection drive for charity, before the Bears game with contributors receiving Kurt Warner game-face fans.
"I told Marc that I prefer Kurt as the man in my life, so that's all the controversy I have," she said. "We're all under the authority of somebody, so Kurt has to listen to the people that make decisions.
"He'll show up when he's given the OK and play his heart out."
After the Chargers game, Bulger figured it was back to the bench. He's looking at the Bears game as one more shot, and nothing more.
"If Kurt's healthy, he's the guy," Bulger said. "I knew that after my first game. That was just assumed until the last couple of weeks when everyone started trying to make an issue of it."
Running back Faulk expected to be ready against Bears
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — The St. Louis Rams aren't counting Marshall Faulk out, yet.
The running back left Sunday's victory over the Chargers with a sprained left ankle and strained tendon in his right foot and was on crutches the next day. But he was feeling much better yesterday.
"Nobody heals like he does," said coach Mike Martz. "I wouldn't rule him out. This will be something we'll take to the very end."
"We'll be pessimistic at this point and say he won't be ready." Martz said. "If he is ready, it'll be a surprise, and that's how we'll prepare. He's improved quite a bit, so we'll see."
Martz said Faulk, listed as questionable, probably wouldn't practice at least until Saturday in preparation for Monday night's game against the Bears.
The Rams did not practice yesterday aside from some running, weight lifting and a team meeting that included a highlight film from the Chargers victory. When they practice for the first time this game week today, rookie Lamar Gordon will be the starting tailback ahead of Trung Canidate, a first-round pick in 2000.
Warner grudgingly agreed with team doctors' opinion that he might risk re-injury returning this week.
"I wouldn't bet against it, that's for sure," said wide receiver Ricky Proehl. "He's unreal and he plays hurt more than anybody I've ever played with."
Teammates expected Faulk out there on Monday, however.
Martz said both backups would play if Faulk couldn't go
Faulk, the MVP in 2000 and the NFL's offensive player of the year the last three seasons, is third in the league with 1,242 total yards this year behind Priest Holmes of the Chiefs (1,353) and LaDainian Tomlinson of the Chargers (1,253). He was held to 72 total yards, 36 rushing and 36 passing, last week by San Diego.
Bears coach Dick Jauron said he'd believe Faulk wasn't playing when he saw it.
"Definitely, there's no question in my mind after throwing today that I could play Monday if I needed to," Warner said. "It sounds like I may suit up in case I'm needed, but otherwise we go another week."
"It heals, I get stronger and it's all good to go."
"Obviously, we'll anticipate Marshall will play against us," Jauron said.
Warner has been throwing every day since last Thursday, three days after four pins were removed. He'll begin taking snaps today and Martz said Warner will take some snaps with the No.1 offense along with scout team work.
Martz said Warner has gotten "remarkably better" each day.
"He's got all the zip on the ball that he's always had," Martz said. "I'm shocked, really, to be honest."
Mangino wants new complex at stadium
WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING
By David Mitchell Lawrence Journal-World
If Kansas University football coach Mark Mangino has his way, the Jayhawks will be spending a lot more time at Memorial Stadium in the future.
Mangino said Tuesday during his weekly news conference that he wants KU to build a new football complex at the stadium. "I'm not talking about something that has to be ready for next season, but something in the future that will be done." the coach said, only for logistics but as recruiting tool. I'm really looking forward to taking on it.
"I'm not talking about something that has to be ready for next season, but something in the future that will be done."
Mark Mangino Kansas football coach first-year head coach said, only for logistics but as recruiting tool. I'm really looking forward to taking on it.
Logistics have been a problem for KU during a wet fall season.
The Jayhawks have practiced often at the stadium instead of the grass practice fields behind Anschutz Sports Pavilion during rainy weather. The time it takes the team to load buses and drive to and from the stadium counts against the NCAA limit of 20 hours per week that players can be involved in athletic-related activities.
Dyer to start at QB this Saturday, again
By Ric Anderson
Topeka Capital-Journal
LAWRENCE -- Zach Dyer is right back where he started the 2002 football season.
Once, anyway.
Kansas coach Mark Mangino said it was likely he would shift Dyer back from safety to starting quarterback this Saturday against Oklahoma State if regular starter Bill Whittimore remained sidelined by a knee injury.
If that happens, Dyer will get his first start since KU's season opener at Iowa State, where the junior was pulled at halftime to make way for Whittemore.
"It's tough to jump back in it," said Dyer, who has played
the last five games at safety and started the last four. "But that's what the team needs, obviously, is to get two quarterbacks back there."
Mangino searching for easier schedule
By Jason King The Kansas City Star
LAWRENCE - Kansas administrators are working diligently to make next year's schedule at least a little bit easier.
"We need to get teams in here that we can compete against and have a chance to win against," Mangino said. "It costs money to do that and we're dealing with that issue."
The Jayhawks want to buy out of next year's road game at San Diego State or move the game to another season. Mangino has made it no secret that he wants to schedule more beatable opponents, preferably at home, as he tries to rebuild the Jayhawks' program.
Sounds like the philosophy of Kansas State coach Bill Snyder, Mangino's former boss.
Cowboys to exhibit advantage over 'Hawks
By Roger Moore Stillwater News Press
It would be easy to think Oklahoma State could beat Kansas this Saturday without attempting a single pass. The Jayhawks have seen opponents rush for a Big 12 Conference high 265.7 yards per game in 2002 and are coming off a disastrous performance against Nebraska last week.
The Cowboys have seen Tatum Bell catch fire over the last three outings, rushing for 182,142 and 165 yards, respectively. "We feel like we have some advantages with some matchups and the speed we do have on the
B u t wings."

offense. ___
which is
averaging 325.4 yards per game, can do just as much damage with its passing attack.
"We have a real advantage on the perimeter," said Miles, whose Cowboys will take a 4-5 overall mark to Lawrence for this Saturday's 1 p.m. kickoff. "It would be a mistake not to get the ball to our best player and guys like Terrance Davis-Bryant and John Lewis. We feel like we have some advantages with some matchups and the speed we do have on the wings."

Grateful Dead to start new tour
The Associated Press
ROANOKE, Va. — The last time the Grateful Dead rolled into this sleepy Southern city, 15 years ago, thousands of mercymakers followed with their tie-dyed shirts and veggie burritos and sunny indifference to public nudity.
The civic center parking lot became a camp site and the city's new fountain was used as a shower. There were drugs and there was free love. And, of course, there was Jerry Garcia.
Today the four remaining original members will begin again, touring together for the first time since Garcia's death in 1995. But this time will be different in many ways.
The parking lot will be chained shut until a few hours before the concert, and police are beeing up patrols — standard precautions, concert officials said, in this post-Sept. 13 world.
The band also bears little resemblance to the gang that first entranced a generation 40 years ago.
Phil Lesh, Bob Weir, Bill Kreutzmann and Mickey Hart are all over 55 now. Each has his own band and they've moved in different artistic directions. Hart continues to produce records like Koda's new Mondo Head album. Lesh started the Unbroken Chain Foundation, a charity, with his band.
The decision to tour together came gradually, band members said, as each began to play the old tunes. One by one, they realized how much the music had adhered to their souls.
"The muse is telling us what to do," Hart said. "We're not really directing traffic here."
This latest incarnation of the Dead — which plays under the moniker "The Other Ones" — will shuffle about 130 songs during a 14-city tour, including a number of Dead standards and some from their own bands. They've pulled out several songs from the early 1960s, such as "Till the Morning Comes," that have never been played live.
"Everybody's grown and expanded their horizons," Lesh
"Everybody's grown and expanded their horizons."
Phil Lesh
Grateful Deed
said. "It's exhilarating ... this music demands to be played, and differently every time."
While the band may have grown up, the fans are expected to be as earthy and raucous as ever.
At a warmup concert in August, thousands of Dead-heads converged on East Troy, Wis. The crowd was peaceful, but police issued 411 citations for drug violations and seized more than 51 pounds of marijuana, 7,500 doses of LSD, 10 pounds of hallucinogenic mushrooms, a tank of nitrous oxide and small amounts of other drugs.
In Roanoke, no camping is allowed on the civic center premises, and ticket holders can't enter until three hours before the concert begins.

"They're both very capable players, they have good size, they can score," said Washington.
The win guaranteed bragging rights for junior guard Leila Mengüç. A native of Stockholm, Sweden, Mengüç provided a spark in the second half when she took a charge with 17:05 left to play and followed with a threepointer on the next possession.
Menguiç had to take it easy on the Vikings to some extent they were responsible for a special delivery for Kansas' starting

Kansas received its first recruit of the early signing period yesterday. Lauren Ervin, a forward from Inglewood (Calif.) High School, committed to the Jayhawks by signing a National Letter of Intent. Ervin was ranked as the second-best high school senior in the nation by both All Game Sports and Blue Star, two online recruiting information sites.

"We had way too much energy out there and were a little bit hyped up," Bechard said. "Every serve that was missed was going deep and out of bounds. There was a little big of anxiety out there."
After tying the match by winning game two, Kansas started game three with a 6-1 run. The Aggies later took a 13-10 lead
Up 8-4 in game four, the Aggies went on an 8-0 run and then stretched their lead to 23-9. The teams split the next 12 points but the Aggies won game four.

In the final game, Kansas led 11-9 but the Aggies went on a 5-0

The Jayhawks will next play Baylor

plays quarterback Saturday, that position will be filled by senior Jake Letourneau and sophomore Tony Stubbs. Before the season, Mangino told reporters that Letourneau was not "a terrific athlete by any stretch of the imagination," and Stubbs has just 24 tackles in 10 games this season and saw little action as a reserve last year.

Moving Dyer from safety would put even more pressure to the Kansas defensive unit, which is ranked last in the Big 12 Conference in total defense, scoring defense and rushing defense.
Starting Dyer at quarterback could have a more disastrous effect. Reverting to using Dyer at quarterback shows little confidence in Luke, who has completed 14 of 40 passes for 153 yards and three interceptions against Kansas State and Nebraska.
Luke is likely to be the starter once Whittemore is gone. I don't know what Mangino's said to Luke about the decision to possibly start Dyer, but it's not difficult to
imagine that starting a defender at quarterback would be more damaging to Luke's psyche than even the worst possible results against Oklahoma State, barring injury.
It can't help Luke's mindset that Mangino is making this positional change for just the final game and plans to use Dver on defense next season.
"He's really making progress," Mangino said of Dyer's play at safety. "It's just too bad, for him personally and our defense, that we've got to do what we've got to do."
You have to put him at quarterback Saturday, coach. You don't have to put him No.1 on the depth chart.
Luke is a capable, young quarterback who needs a full game of experience, both for himself to learn the game and for Mangino to learn how Luke performs at the collegiate level. Who should start is not that hard of a decision. If this team is to succeed in the near future, Mangino must make the right choice.

back when I wasn't out there."
For McGinest, her 6 points last night tied a career high and drew praise from her coach.
"First time she got off the bench I thought, 'Oh boy. Here we go.'" Washington said. "Then she came right out and played within herself, and that's what's going to be important for us all season.
"Being so young, we can't do more than what we're ready to do."
As the team prepares for its second and final exhibition game Sunday against Fort Hays State, the goal for Menguc is to keep the team building on its unity.
"I need to work on getting the team together more and that's something we all need to work on, but it's my responsibility." Mengüc said.
"This team is such a good team and they are open to leadership, so they will follow no matter what."

The Cowboys then used 10 plays to get their payback, with a 6-yard touchdown run by backup tailback Greg Jones. Jones was on fire after Letourneau injured Tatum Bell, leaving Bell with a strained shoulder in the first quarter.
"It's over. He let me tie it up with an entire quarter of football left." Greene said.

Super Mann: singer takes stage tonight
By Janette Vost
jyost@kansan.com
Jayplay writer
Aimee Mann, one of today's greatest songwriters, will take the stage tonight at Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St.
Though the solo talents of Aimee Mann have not erupted into mainstream culture, this independent musician is leaving her mark on every facet of the underground that finds her.
Mann went from major label to independent at the same time she shifted from band member to solo artist, and she isn't looking back. In the '80s, Mann fronted the band 'Til Tuesday, which released three albums from 1985 to 1988. Since then, her music has calmed down almost as much as her hair. Mann's Cars-like vocals, guitar and bass styles were left behind for her solo projects, wherein she released her first solo album Whatever in '93.
Mann's solo style is brimming with talent. Her lyrics sing as loudly as her rich, addictive voice, and her self-penned melodies are catchy without being obnoxious. On her four solo albums she is credited with playing every instrument from drums to keys, but is best known for her
bass. Though her music evades most comparisons, her songwriting has been called Beatles-esque and her voice is reminiscent of an older, more mature Sarah McLachlan.
In 1999, Mann made the soundtrack for the movie Magnolia and she didn't just make the cut, she made the entire album. Paul Thomas Anderson, writer, director and producer of Booie Nights, Magnolia and most recently Punch-Drunk Love, gives Mann all the credit for inspiring the film Magnolia.
"Like one would adapt a book for the screen, I had the concept of adapting Aimee's songs into a screenplay," Anderson wrote in the liner notes of Magnolia: The Soundtrack.
"For instance, in my 'original' motion picture screenplay, Claudia (played by Melora Walters, with a true sense of Aimee Mann insanity) says, 'Now that I've met you, would you object to never seeing me again?' I must come clean," Anderson wrote, "I did not write that line. Aimee Mann wrote that line as the opening of her song, 'Deathly,' and I wrote backwards from that line."
Soon after the release of the Magnolia soundtrack, Mann released the album
Bachelor No. 2, her third solo record. It was the first release on Superego Records, a label she started with her husband, musician Michael Penn.
Frustrations with her old label, Geffen left her ready to be on her own.
"Mann is known for writing clever, disappointed love songs that can also be read as damnations of the music industry," wrote Jonathan Van Meter in a July 1999 New York Times Magazine profile.
"I really like the idea of being a professional musician — that I have a job that I'm good at and a good work ethic," Mann said. "I get a giant kick out of that."
Rolling Stone magazine called Bachelor No. 2 "stunning," and the album made the No. 3 spot on Entertainment Weekly's Top 10 Albums of 2000.
Lost in Space, released this year, left no break in her pattern of excellence.
PATRICIA FERREIRA
"Her music keeps getting better," wrote Aidin Vaziri, an Amazon.com music reviewer.
Cate Batchelder, Highland junior, has been listening to Mann for years and expects a great show tonight. She just started listening to the new album this weekend in preparation.

Aimee Mann will perform tonight at Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St.
said. "Her music is so heartfelt; it's intimate and has a way of really getting out there. It reminds me of Joni Mitchell."
Liberty Hall's doors will open tonight at 7,the velvet curtain will rise at 8 p.m.for an opening band,and Mann will play at about 9 p.m. Tim Griffith, manager of the venue said plenty of tickets were still available for $20.50 at the Liberty Hall box office and Ticketmaster outlets.

'Loaded' show proves music scene still hopping
By Patrici Cady pcady@kansan.com Jayplay writer
For three days last April, the brightest in the Lawrence music scene took part in an act of self-regeneration. Eighteen bands toed the stage of The Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St., recording their strongest songs in an attempt to fan the flames of local creativity and to spark a new national interest in the local music scene. This event crystallized in the fourth installment of Loaded in Lawrence, an album and concept that had been dormant since the early '90s.
"During the years in the early nineties we saw a few local bands get signed by major labels," Even Emerson, producer at Pipeline Productions, said. "By resurrecting it in 2002, we hope more attention on Lawrence will draw similar interest."
Some of the bands that recorded in April have broken up in the intervening months, such as Proudentall and Ruskabank, and the release of the album itself was delayed
because of a technical translation error. Despite these setbacks, the spirit of the album that showcased nearly all aspects of Lawrence's diverse sonic landscape came through in the performances at the CD release party Friday.
The first band, Full Feature, took the stage at 9:24 p.m.to a sparse crowd. Its performance was marked by a barely contained energy.
By blending the upbeat strokes of ska and rapidfire hip-hop lyrics that came across like a high pressure fountain, it took control of the crowd. Eddie Schubert, the lead vocalist, channeled the energy of the music to his body and to his lyrics. He danced on the stage and with the mike stand like a rock frontman of old. High points of its set included a cover of Pharcyde and a wild finale that set the stage for Be/Non.
Be/Non was led by a veteran of the Lawrence and Kansas City rock scenes, Brodie Rush. He and the members of Be/Non began with a mellow Indie rock technique. The songs showcased a hybrid
of distorted slide guitar and Rush's distinctive voice. At one point a sparkling pink electric twelve string guitar joined the musical melee, and the flashy instrumentation added even more depth to the already pervasive sound. Be/Non's outfit was scaled down compared to its track on Loaded, but still played a decent show. Perhaps the band's strongest song was a cover of Electric Light Orchestra's "Mr. Kingdom."
After Be/Non completed its set, another itinerant entourage of indie rock took the stage — the Lawrence favorite, Ghosty. The band's set was marked by light melodies and Andrew Connor's rampant emoting. Ghosty's musical product was tightly knit, and the members' chops seemed strong despite a self-admitted absence from the stage. The band's strongest song of the evening, "Big Surrender," seemed reminiscent of 1950s-era love songs.
Following Ghosty, a distorted sound signaled the arrival of Truth Cell. Known for its highly technical display of harder metal,
Truth Cell drew the night's densest crowds. The people nearest to the stage seemed lost in the throat-scraping voices of Truth Cell's two lead singers, Mark Renfro and James Savage, and others danced as the songs progressed.
The most fitting moment of the night occurred when a mosh pit broke out in the middle of a track called "Kung Fu Knuckle."
This album also marked Truth Cell guitarist Shane Murray's and drummer Dave Melody's second appearance in Loaded in Lawrence disc, having played previously with the band Slackjaw.
The final band of the evening, Jumbo's Killcrane, continued with harder rock but changed it into a more melodic framework. The set was strong.
It was marked by solid musicians and songs that seemed like an extension of the band.
Brodie Rush returned to sing for Jumbo's and closed the evening with a fitting finale — a massive rendition of a track it called "Mt. Roy."

Comedy carves a niche in downtown Lawrence
By Amy Kelly

Jayplay writer
Music plays an important role in a typical night in downtown Lawrence. From the Bottleneck to the Replay Lounge, music is king in Larryville. But the fiddlers and axe-grinders may have to make some room for the new kid whose craft is comedy.
The Jazzhaus, 926 1/2 Massachusetts St., started the ball rolling by offering a monthly comedy show emceed by 26-year-old comic Matt Buff.
The shows depart from the abundant open-mike nights among downtown clubs each show features a brief routine by Buff and features comics from across the nation.
"I had been doing stand-up around town and there were no comedy shows here in Lawrence," Buff said. "So a year ago, I approached the Jazzhaus about doing a show and they were interested in
the idea. They had wanted to fill Wednesday nights anyway."
Buff's periodic act at Stanford and Sons in Kansas City has enabled him to work with a variety of stars such as Tommy Davidson, Larry the Cable Guy and Pablo Francisco.
These encounters helped him book the Jazzhaus show, which will feature Steve Kramer, former star of WB's Hype, on Nov. 20.
For Buff, a Kansas City, Mo., native, the evolution into professional comedy was fairly recent.
"I started out two years ago this past August," Buff recalled. "I began by doing improv at Comedy City in Kansas City, but I realized that I didn't like sharing the stage with six or seven people."
His time yukking it up with the Comedy City gang did, however, prep him for the dreaded bane of comedians: hecklers.
"That's where the improv really helps," Buff said. "I hadhecklers in the beginning,
but my kind of comedy really brings out participation from the audience anyway."
Locals seem to have given their approval to Buff's show, said Jazzhaus bartender Jamie Swartz.
"Some people have come in from Kansas City because they've seen Matt's show there," Swartz said. "He brings in a good crowd. It really is a lot of fun."
In comparison with an evening at Stanford and Sons in Kansas City, which can put a person back $30,Buff's comedy night at the Jazzhaus is practically a steal. Admission to the show is $3,a cover charge that also includes a performance by the band Quintessence.
Swartz said drink specials were an extra benefit, with $1.50 Bud Light pints.
Buff agreed with Swartz's assessment of the drink prices.
"I call it the '10 buck night," Buff joked. Buff said he dreamed of opening a comedy club in Lawrence by the time he was 35. The primary obstacle of such a lofty idea
The primary obstacle of such a lofty idea
is the price tag attached to nationally known comedians.
"I want to be a full-length comedy club, five days a week," Buff said. "If you can afford guys like Jim Breuer, who cost $10,000 per show, then it could be great. Of course, comedians like Carrot Top and Jim Breuer are going to Kansas City anyway, so Lawrence could be a whole other audience."
Although the comedy club probably won't have a ribbon-cutting until most current students at KU have graduated, Buff said he wanted his monthly show at the Jazzhaus to get Lawrence residents excited about the possibility.
Buff is working on booking more comics for Jazzhaus gig, as well as possibly creating a show at the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St., for Jimmie "Dynamite" Walker of Good Times fame.
The Nov. 20 Jazzhaus show begins at 8 p.m. and has a $5 cover charge. For more information, call (785) 749-1387.
Live Dave follows familiar recipe; David Gray falls short
Dave Matthews Band, Live at Folsom Field,
Boulder, Colorado, RCA records
The Dave Matthews Band has just released its biannual (or at least it seems like it) live album Live at Folsom Field, Boulder Colorado. Those who have never seen DMB live have been deprived of one of the most entertaining musical acts of our time. What other band can have not only guitars, but also an electric violin and saxophone in its standard arsenal of instruments?
Live at Folsom, has a few of the classics, such as "Crash Into Me," "Ants Marching," or Bob Dylan's "All Along the Watchtower," and a hodgepodge of the last two
albums, Everyday and Breakstuff. This provides an interesting mix with the happy pop of Everyday and the melancholy melody of Busted Stuff. If you are a fan of the Dave Matthews Band, then you will love how the new songs sound live. If you hate DMB, don't waste your time. This is a great two-CD set, but attending a Dave Matthews concert is even better.
Justin La Mort
David Gray, A New Day at Midnight, RCA records Already known for his melancholy, emotionally penetrating tunes, Mel灰 stays true to
form on A New Day at Midnight with a slew of catchy ballads. His voice, as always, almost seems to have an entrancing and soothing effect, especially on songs such as "Long Distance Call" and "December." At times, the album seems like a continuation of his previous album White Ladder. This is apparent in "Real Love." However, something to be lacking this time around for the sensitive British singer. One reason could be the greater reliance on electric instruments on this album. The keyboard, synthesizer and electric guitar make an even stronger presence, most notably on "Knowhere."
The album almost seems to have more of
a despairing tone, even by Gray's standards. This could be contributed to the death of his father. Many of the songs seem to be influenced by his grief, possibly stemming from the event. Either way, Gray has successfully been able to make another record, not straying too far from his roots. Nonetheless, for more reasons than one, this effort is slightly more lacking in lyrical and sound content. Only "Dead in the Water" seems worthy of pop radio play. David Gray fans should stick to the old stuff and hope for a new day.

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN = 5
Put away the fast food; sample Asian cuisine
Succumbing to the grease is what we know best as Americans. The cosmopolitan of fast food chains has produced such a large growth on society that it's ready to burst, making us all run away and desire something new and fresh. That "something" is the growing popularity of Asian cuisine, particularly Chinese and Japanese food.
Both regions use many of the same ingredients, but the ultimate difference is food preparation. Stir-frying, deep-frying, steaming and blanching are Chinese methods of cooking, whereas grilling, no-cook, light-fry and steaming are Japanese.
Famous Chinese dishes are egg rolls, moo shu pork, lemon chicken, lo mein and stir-fried rice, while famous Japanese dishes are sushi, miso soup, tempura (lightly fried seafood and vegetables), shabu shabu (Japanese meat fondue), Yakitori (skewered grilled chicken), grilled sesame beef and chicken teriyaki (food broiled without seasoning, then basted with sauce).
The idea of cooking "East meets West" style is a developing trend in North America because of its flavors and beneficial dietary factors. Indulge in each cuisine's sizzling sounds, tastes, textures, aromas and presentations.
Your five senses will crave it more and more, instead of the usual value meal. Try learning more about Chinese and Japanese cooking in books such as Feast, the Best of Yan Can Cook, by Martin Yan, The Essentials of Japanese Cooking, by Tokiko Suzuki, and Betty Crocker's Chinese Cookbook, recipes by Leeann Chin.
Japanese dish: Yakitori
Although chicken thighs without bone and skin are usually used in this recipe, I like to use chicken breast strips or chunks of chicken. Both ways are terrific.
Serve with miso soup, white rice and warm sake.
Ingredients:
4 green onions, cut into 4 pieces of each stalk
16 whole cultivated mushrooms
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 medium zucchini, cut into 16 slices
4 skewers
For marinade:
4 tablespoons Dijon mustard
EAT THIS
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
2 teaspoons oyster sauce
2 1/2 to 3 tablespoons soy sauce
---
2 tablespoons sake
1 teaspoon sesame seeds
Christina DiGiacomo
cdigiacomo@kansan.com
Heat coals or gas grill for direct heat. Thread chicken, mushrooms, onions and zucchini, alternately on four metal or wooden skewers and place in a shallow dish.
Mix all marinade ingredients, pour over the kabobs and let sit for 10 minutes.
Place kabobs on grill, cover and grill on medium heat for 10 to 14 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear.
Note: Serve with favorite Japanese dipping sauce, such as teriyaki or wasabi. 4 servings.
Chinese dish: Stir-fried scallops and shrimp
Serve with fried rice, white rice or cooked Chinese noodles and a salad with Chinese vinaigrette.
Ingredients:
1/2 pound fresh or frozen scallops, cleaned and thawed
1/2 pound fresh or frozen shrimp, cleaned.
deveined and thawed
2 cups chopped asparagus
2 cups broccoli florets
1/2 cup white onion, sliced
1 clove garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon cornstarch
3 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
1 teaspoon sugar
3 tablespoons dry sherry or Chinese rice wine
1 tablespoon cooking oil
In small mixing bowl, combine cornstarch, water, soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar and sherry; set aside.
Heat oil in wok or large skillet over medium heat. Stir fry garlic, asparagus, broccoli and onion until vegetables are crisp, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove vegetables from wok or skillet, place on plate and cover with tin foil to keep warm. Add cornstarch mixture to wok, stir and bring to a boil. Add scallops and shrimp and cook until shrimp is pink and scallops are opaque — about 3 to 5 minutes.
Stir in vegetables and heat until warm. 4 servings.

Best bet with sex is to keep it wet
ALEXANDRA CALDWYN
SEX
Meghan Bainum
mbainum@kansan.com
I've never had a problem with messy sex. For me, sex without a liberal helping of spit, sweat, lube, cum and my own slick secretions is like eating barbecue without any sauce. Sure, you might be spotlessly clean in the end, if you don't have to deal with that thick, gooey, spicy stuff, but you lose out on the pleasure of eating a tasty, tantalizing meal. Because without barbecue sauce, you're just eating boring, dry meat. And sex should be anything but boring and dry.
Finger-lickin' good sex is usually hot, spicy and wet. And it doesn't have to include barbecue sauce or any other edible treat to get it this way. In fact, for nice, sloppy sex, all you need is the sexual fluids from your own body, and your partner's, augmented if necessary by a little spit or water-based lube.
Still, far too many people think sexual fluids are gross, dirty or simply too much of a mess to deal with. Some caution is a good thing as sexually transmitted nasties and pregnancies can all be a downfall of getting a little sloppy in the sack. But, the stuff that comes shooting or dripping out of a person's body while turned on should not always be regarded as a threat. In fact, getting your lover dripping wet and slippery is
usually an indication that you're really havin' at it in award-winning style.
this doesn't mean you must avoid a man's semen like the plague. Many people enjoy it when a man shoots his stuff onto their bodies instead of into their mouths. It's an interesting feeling, and fun because you can both watch him orgasm. Though many people like the experience, men should not pull out and let it off all over someone without his or her approval of the maneuver.
So, put that towel down, stop worrying about the sheets, and prepare to learn a little more about the taste, smell and usefulness of sexual fluids.
When orally pleasuring a woman, however, to spit or to swallow is not a question, it's a fact. When women are aroused, their vaginas continuously produce a natural form of lubrication that helps keep everything slick and ready down below. There's really nothing that works to keep vaginal fluids from finding their way into a pleasuring mouth.
By now, almost everybody is familiar with the good old spit-or-swallow debate, and almost everybody has a definite stand on the issue. While swallowing has never been a big deal for some enthusiastic oral sex givers—including myself—others consider swallowing semen about as sexy as hocking up and swallowing a big, juicy ball of snot. While some cite the slightly salty, tangy taste of semen as the problem, others simply cannot handle swallowing the warm, slightly viscous fluid. If you can't swallow without throwing up, don't. But
Speaking of mouths, spit is another fantastic fluid for keeping sex slippery and oral explorations successful. A key ingredient for a night of action is keeping something cold to drink close at hand. Bonus points if that something to drink is either ice water or a tasty beverage such as champagne; not only will your kisses be wet, but getting freaky with ice cubes or drinking off of someone's body does wonders for almost any encounter.
Italian bracelets offer charms with a twist
I began with self-control. "They are too trendy anyway," I reassured myself, but as my eyes fell upon the glass case with the rows of charms, I began wondering where the nearest ATM was.
FASHION
The Etc. Shop, 928 Massachusetts St., was where I first became enchanted by one of the freshest fads in jewelry — the Italian composable bracelet. These are a modern, sleek version of the gaudy, dangle-charm bracelet. The imported wrist decor is made of stainless steel and 18k gold "charms" that link together. Each link stretches to fit over the hand and adorn the wrist without a clasp.
The Etc. Shop has been carrying the popular brand Zoppini and seven other versions for almost two years, said sales clerk Katie Parr. She said the bracelets had been in high demand since the shop began carrying them. Nomination, the original company in composable Italian bracelets, created the "classic" design in 1987. The bracelets quickly made their way to the U.S. coasts and eventually onto the wrists of University of Kansas coeds.
These accessories have caught on because of the nature of the charm bracelet
Sara Behunek
sbehunek@kansan.com
— they can be tailored to represent events, people, or individual taste. No two are alike and there are an infinite number of charms to ensure just that. Designs range from enameled flags and hearts to Playboy bunnies. Nomination and Zoppini also carry charms with cubic zirconia and diamond designs as well as semi-precious and precious stones.
Laura Rupe, Wichita senior, wears two Italian bracelets one by Nomination and one by Zoppini she explained as she fingered each charm. She sported a playing card for Vegas; a mug of beer for her 21st birthday; a turtle, her favorite animal; and an Aries symbol for her sign.
A Nomination starter bracelet with 13 links can be purchased at Hobbs,700
Massachusetts St., for $6. The Zoppini starter from the Etc. Shop or Prairie Patches, 821 Massachusetts St., is $14.95. The average female wrist needs about 17 to 18 links for a comfortable fit. Single links cost 65 cents to $1.95.
It is in the charms, however, that the bracelet starts getting expensive. Charms run about $20 to $100 each, depending on the stones used, intricacy, or rarity of the design. The Etc. Shop will be soon be carrying a 14k gold hand-made Jayhawk link for $94.95. Although Jayhawk dangle-charms are already available, the Etc. Shop will be the only outlet in Kansas selling the link.
Hobbs was the last store I checked during my downtown pursuit of Italian wrist ornaments. They carry strictly Nomination charms and starter bracelets.
"It is the original. The rest are just cheap knock offs," sales clerk Angela Griswald said.
I was putty.
I left Hobbs swinging my shopping bag with a new composable bracelet and a rose charm. Try as you may, even the most devout shopping-reformist cannot resist some harmless Italian jewelry.

O: I have been trying to lose weight for some time now and it really hasn't been working. I'm a very busy girl and don't really have too much time to spare. I usually run at least 45 minutes, but I find myself only having spare time to do so during the night, which is a time I refuse to run at unless it's at Robinson, but those treadmills have lines. I am going to invest my money in a treadmill because of this. But my busy schedule makes it hard to plan out my meals and have enough time to actually make them. I was just wondering if you might be able to give me some tips on healthy eating that won't make me gag and will help me lose weight. I know yogurt, fat-free pudding and reduced-fat chewy granola bars are good things to eat on the run, but I would like more to choose from.
A: Invest in some baggies or small containers and take 10 minutes to pack a variety of snacks at the beginning of your week. Snacks such as cereals (Cheerios, Life, or Chex), light microwave popcorn with a dash of Parmesan; homemade granola mixed with two types of whole grain cereals and added raisins; dried fruit, seeds, or nuts; frozen grapes; or one slice of whole wheat bread topped with a sensible spread such as peanut butter, jam or a turkey slice are convenient snacks and are easy to grab while you're flying out the door. Other prepackaged snacks such as low-fat yogurt, low-fat granola bars, fat-free pudding, individual applesauce or oatmeal, boxes of raisins or dried fruit and V8 or V8 Splash provide the same convenience. Fruits in individual servings, such as diced peaches, pineapple or mandarin oranges, make an excellent treat. Drink plenty of water and cut out or limit beverage calories such as soda and always read food labels. Hassle-free eating can be healthy.

Young writers rarely find immediate success
Professor says aspiring writers should work on skills before making it big
By Henry C. Jackson
cjackson@kansan.com
Jayplay Writer
But, is it fair to hold University of Kansas literary hopefuls up to these standards? Probably not. Tom Lorenz, associate chair in English, teaches creative writing at KU and said that writers "who publish anything prior to age 25" are ahead of the curve. A look at the biographies of Crane, Hemingway and Smith shows that their situations also differed slightly from that of
Literary history is dotted with classic literature penned by writers barely out of college. Stephen Crane's The Red Badge of Courage was penned before the author's 24th birthday, Ernest Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises hit shelves shortly before the author's 27th birthday, and even modern marvel Zadie Smith began working on her debut novel, White Teeth, while she was still attending classes at Cambridge University.
Crane, whose best known piece was probably Courage, might not have had the time to pen his famous war novel if he had been tied down by the academic obligations today's students face.
the typical KU student.
Instead, he wrote for a variety of news publications. Hemingway skipped college and went straight to the pros, writing for The Kansas City Star shortly after his high school graduation, and thus avoiding a college workload that might have prevented him from crafting his minimalist prose.
Zadie Smith was an exception in this case. Smith's White Teeth was polished while she was working on a degree from Cambridge.
KU's future writers probably shouldn't hold themselves to Smith's standards, however. Lorenz said he worked on getting students to develop their talent and voice while working at KU, not publishing award winning novels. As to what can help develop this talent, there are a few things Lorenz said could help a writer's development.
"The whole process is one of discovery," Lorenz said. "Literature courses, courses
with a modern and contemporary component and courses in the fine arts help."
A broad range of knowledge can also help, Lorenz said. Expanding one's classes to include more diverse subjects would help a writer become more attuned to the world around him or her.
"Anything you can get to know about, you can write about," Lorenz said.
Aside from class selection, keeping an eye on modern fiction helps students' development, Lorenz said.
"I encourage students to read outside of class, especially contemporary writers," Lorenz said. "Students consciously or unconsciously write in someone else's style. The more authors, the more styles they are familiar with."
Who students modeled themselves after has evolved through the years, Lorenz said.
"We used to have a lot of students writing like (short story writer Raymond) Carver," Lorenz said. "But now I think there's a lot of modern writers they write like. Nick Hornby has been one that's very popular."
Helping future writers is something in which Lorenz said he and his department
"We used to have a lot of students writing like (short story writer Raymond) Carver. But now I think there's a lot of modern writers they write like. Nick Hornby has been one that's very popular."
Tom Lorenz Associate chair in English
took great pride. The emphasis for college-aged writers should be on developing skills. While Lorenz noted that former KU students Connie Fowler and Scott Heim both published books shortly after leaving KU's creative writing program, not all students possess the talent and dedication.
"In any given class there are as many as a half a dozen writers that have talent." Lorenz said. "You can develop the talent. The creative writing staff works a lot with students to help improve their work. That's our emphasis."

JACKSON CITY
Atlanta's Centennial Olympic Park is a place many Georgians visit to escape city life. The park was built especially for the 1996 Olympic Games and encompasses 21 acres.

The Kansan's guide to U.S. travel
From coast to coast, the United States is rich in cultural, historical and educational activities—and lots of super cool places to visit. For students planning a vacation in the coming months, The University Daily Kansan correspondents have compiled a list of America's greatest cities—here, there and everywhere.
Lauren Beatty, Kansan special section editor
Atlanta, Georgia
Fast-paced city life meets the distinguished charm of southern hospitality in Atlanta, and a Waffle House is around every corner.
A flight from Kansas City to Atlanta is two to three hours long, and driving time from Lawrence to Atlanta is between 14 to 15 hours, including the one-hour time change.
Before touring Atlanta, be prepared for its rather confusing setup. The word peachtree is in more than 50 streets names, including the most famous street, profoundly named Peachtree Street. Unlike most major cities, Atlanta is not built on a grid pattern. Many roads change names several times within a few miles. But, if travelers are still confused, the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority is accessible throughout the city.
In downtown Atlanta one of the most popular attractions is the World of CocaCola. This three-story pavilion allows visitors to sample a taste of the soft drink's world-wide history that began in Atlanta more than 110 years ago. Visitors can witness a re-enactment of an old-time soda jerk and taste Coke products not sold in the United States. Domestic brands of Coke are also available for unlimited consumption. Even Tab, the first major diet cola, popular in the 1980s, is available to sample in its original form.
For football or baseball fans, Turner Field and the Georgia Dome are within walking distance of the Coke pavilion. Also within walking distance are the Georgia capitol building, CNN Center, Martin Luther King, Jr. History Center and Underground Atlanta.
Underground Atlanta, a six-block three-level shopping center, is only one of the memorable areas of historic Atlanta after its devastation during the Civil War before the city was rebuilt. Underground Atlanta is one of Georgia's most popular
attractions. It provides live music, various forms of art and entertainment and namebrand stores, as well as stores with an authentic Atlanta feel.
"Underground's the place to be," Stone Mountain, Ga., freshman Ty Green said. "That's where all the tourists come in and do their shopping. It's kind of like the Mecca of the center of Atlanta."
The Atlanta experience cannot be complete without getting a bite to eat at the city's most famous restaurant, The Varsity. Created in 1928, The Varsity now exists as the world's largest drive-in restaurant, holding as many as 600 cars and 800 people inside. With fresh food daily, fast-paced, efficient and hospitable service and a lingo all of its own, The Varsity can only be fully understood from a personal experience. While there, make sure to order The Varsity's famous onion rings and a frosted orange drink, and don't forget to pick up a souvenir from its gift shop.
"It's a totally different kind of atmosphere," Green said. "The food is not the healthiest, but it draws in people from out of town all the time. Getting some greasy food is sometimes good."
Green recommends a chili dog, onion rings and a chocolate malt.
For those who want to experience Atlanta during the Civil War, the Atlanta
Cyclorama is the place to go. Located in historic Grant Park, minutes from downtown and next to Zoo Atlanta, the Cyclorama is home to the world's largest painting, which depicts the Battle of Atlanta on July 22, 1864. Visitors view a documentary of the Atlanta Campaign narrated by James Earl Jones. The 358-foot painting, which wraps around a circular room, is viewed as a guide points out events portrayed in the painting.
Visitors wanting to see antebellum mansions will be disappointed, because they no longer exist in Atlanta. They burned down during the burning of Atlanta by the Union Army. More Civil War artifacts and authentic southern heritage can be found in the nearby cities of Marietta, Roswell and Kennesaw.
Sixteen miles east of downtown is another of Georgia's popular attractions. Stone Mountain, exposing 25 million square feet of granite, is the largest face of exposed granite in the world, as well as the largest Confederate memorial sculpture. Carved on the north face of the mountain are three Confederate war heroes riding on horseback: Robert E. Lee, Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson and Jefferson Davis.
Unlike Mount Rushmore, visitors can

walk right up to the mountain's north face and view the detail of the carving.
"I've never seen anything like it," Green said. "When you walk closer to it, you see how big it is and how detailed it is."
One of the mountain's well-known events is its laser show. Open nightly during the summer months, visitors can view a laser show projected onto the north face of the mountain that brings classic songs to life, including: "Devil Went Down to Georgia", Elvis Presley's "American T rilogy", "Proud to Be an American" and others. Green said the uniqueness of Stone Mountain was something that made Georgia special.
"Stone Mountain is cool because it's a totally different kind of atmosphere," he said. "It's really kind of country, kind of home-style, and you don't get much of that in Atlanta."

Boston, Massachusetts
Students looking for a travel destination that offers a list of attractions, entertainment, history and diversity should stop the search and book a ticket for Boston — the Mecca of all college towns. Getting there can involve a 48-hour road trip or a six-hour round-trip flight, but either way time and money are well-spent.
For those who haven't been, think of Beantown as an upper-Lawrence. With more than 50 colleges and universities and more than 200,000 students streaming in every September, the city is alive with music, events, sports and nightlife.
Boston's music scene is an almost guaranteed stop for any national tour and also the breeding ground for many up-and-coming bands. In the next month, you can catch Indie artists Fighting Gravity and Luna, rock classic Bob Dylan and the bands Counting Crows and Gov't Mule, metal favorites GWAR and Clutch, or singer-songwriters Tori Amos and Jack Johnson.
Nowhere else in New England can one weekend provide entertainment picks that include stand-up comedy with Bill Maher and Jon Stewart, a first class performance of Phantom of the Opera and Miss Saigon, tickets for Blue Man Group. and The Wiggles live!
Boston is any die-hard sports fan's dream. Name your pleasure, be it a Red Sox game at historic Fenway Park, a Bruins game or watching ex-Jayhawk Paul Pierce of the Celtics at the FleetCenter.
For a stellar night out, Boston boasts dozens of clubs and bars with faithful student followings, cheap drinks and packed dance floors. Harper's Ferry, known for it's year-round live bands, The Crimson Bar and Grille, famous for its nightly $5 pitchers, and the Sunset Grille and Tap, offering 500 microbrews and 112 beers on tap, are just a few of the local favorites.
Make sure to take a stroll through the greens of Boston Common (Boston's version of Central Park) and save a moment to frolic in the Frog Pond. Check out the popular shops of Harvard Square to get the feel of the East Coast appeal and see the sundry of locals pass you by.
Some say only the air is free in Boston. Entertainment does come at a cost, but there are ways to milk the last dollars till the trip's end. The Museum of Fine Arts is said to be the best cheap date in town. Look for the free admission after 4 p.m. Wednesdays. The Comedy Connection at the Faneuil Hall Marketplace also offers great prices on shows nightly. And if you're starving and craving the familiarity of our own Joe's Bakery, try Mike's Pastry Inc. to get your thrifty East Coast fix.
"There's always something exciting to do in Boston," Katie Lorenz, Lawrence sophomore said. "And whatever you do seems more exciting because you're there doing it."

Branson, Missouri
Nestled deep in the hills of the Ozark Mountains in Southwest Missouri are tranquil waterways, luscious green fairways and the "live music capital of the world"—Branson.
According to the Branson Chamber of Commerce Web site, the city has more than 45 different theaters, where "Branson audiences can experience dazzling staging, colorful costumes and spectacular lighting." The shows range from classical music, with Dino Kartsonakis, to country music, with Sons of the Pioneers, to a southern Dinner show at Dixie Stampede, to comedy, with Jim Stafford. No matter what a visitors' tastes are, they're sure to find a show they will enjoy.
Tickets for these shows can often range from $30 or more. If shows don't interest the visitor, Branson also offers plenty of other activities. Silver Dollar City has a combination of shopping and thrill rides set in the 1800s. According to the Silver Dollar City Web site, one day admission tickets are $31.80. If visitors are not willing to spend that much money on entertainment, then they can fish on Lake Taneycomo or water-ski on Table Rock Lake.
Branson also offers various go-kart,

bumper boats and miniature golf sites that can be found on and off the main strip highway 76. It takes about five hours to drive to Branson from Lawrence.
According to Amber Sims, Branson sophomore, who attended Branson High School and is a singing waitress at the Hard Luck Diner, there's not really much in terms of party places.
"There's this one place, Planet Branson, that is kind of cool," Sims said. "People just go there and hang out and listen to local bands."
Sims has lived in Branson for nineteen years, and said that she and her friends usually had a great time just going to the movies.

Buena Vista, Colorado
The hardest part about making a trip to Buena Vista, Colo.. might be choosing from the vast array of things to do upon arrival. Warning: Recreation here does not center around bikinis or bars, shopping or sightseeing. Well, at least not sightseeing in the traditional sense.
Buena Vista, a small town with a population of about 2,500, lies in the Arkansas River Valley, approximately 90 miles west
of Colorado Springs and 140 miles southwest of Denver. A ten-hour drive from Lawrence, the town is located at the foot of a section of the Rocky Mountains known as the Collegiate Peaks, which include some of the tallest mountains in the state topping 14,000 feet. In the summer, these mountains provide a wealth of opportunities for hiking, rock climbing mountain biking and camping. In the winter, visitors often grab a pair of snowshoes and hit the mountain or join an outfitter group to rent snow mobiles.
While skiing is not available in Buena Vista itself, the town is located within one to one-and-a-half hours of the best ski resorts in Colorado, including Cooper, Vail, Keystone and Breckenridge. The advantage to staying in Buena Vista, and what makes the longer drive to the resorts worth it, is that the town and surrounding area offer affordable lodging and a number of things to do once you're home and tuckered out from skiing.
Two of Colorado's famous natural hot springs are near Buena Vista: Cottonwood (five-and-a-half miles from the town) and Mount Princeton (13 miles), which charge $10 and $6 per person to swim in the pools. Student-friendly night life can be found about 20 miles south in Salida, which has a variety of good bars and excellent food.
"For someone who wants to experience the Rockies, Buena Vista is an excellent place to start," said Darren McCarter, St. Joseph, Mo., sophomore. "You're a relatively close drive to any destination or activity."
In the summer, white water rafting on the Arkansas River is one of the area's main attractions, and there are plenty of outfitters located along the headwaters (some of the better companies: Four Corners, American Adventure Expeditions, and Noah's Ark). The quality of the rafting is entirely dependent on the level of the river, which gets all of its water from the snow melt of the surrounding mountains. Because the area experienced a drought during the last two years, the river level has been abnormally low. While this makes for less-than-ideal white water rafting, it has also meant lower prices for everything from rafting to lift tickets to ski gear. This winter could be one of the best opportunities for an affordable excursion to the Rockies.
And if you can't make it out there this winter, summer is an equally wonderful time to be in Buena Vista.
It's where McCarter decided to spend his last week of summer before school started in August.
"The Collegiate Peaks are, in my opinion, unmatched in their enjoyable hiking
and climbing," McCarter said. "The views from the mountain summits are spectacular."
— Kate Sullivan
Chicago
Chicago ... that other Midwestern metropolis, known for its blue collar population and once glorious, now pitiful, sports teams. Much more can be said for this city of nearly three million people. Filled with eclectic eateries and marvelous museums, the Windy City is a destination worth venturing to if you love the sights and sounds of city life.
Although Vanguard Airlines, a Kansas City-based airline and popular means to travel to Chicago, may have gone under, do not despair. There are still many affordable rates from KCI to Midway for about $100. If staying on the ground is more your style, Amtrak has the "Southwest Chief" route that runs from downtown Kansas City, Mo., to downtown Chicago for about $100. And, as always, there is the road trip option. At about 530 miles or eight hours, according to mapquest.com, Chicago could be a worthwhile adventure if one has the time over break, for example.

Visitors flock to Chicago to get a glimpse of big-city architecture along the Chicago River. The city not only has many famous skyscrapers such as the Sears Tower, but also boasts many Frank Lloyd Wright-designed homes.
tions include Navy Pier and Michigan Avenue. The pier offers boat rides, ferris wheel rides for $3 and some shopping Michigan Avenue, or the "magnificent mile," is more expensive, with an expansive array of stores ranging from Bebe to SoHo to Ralph Lauren and other upscale stores.
For eating out, some great cheap eats include Dick's Last Resort on Navy Pier,a restaurant described as having "sick humor but lots of good food," or Portillo's, which has great Italian beef. More expensive but quality fare would be Ron of Japan, or the Italian restaurant Tucci Benucch.
A lot of culture is also prominent at numerous public attractions, such as the Museum of Science and Industry and Shedd Aquarium. Chicago also has a great and varied music scene. Venues are everywhere, such as the House of Blues, the Empty Bottle, Schubas, Abbey Pub United Center and even Soldier Field once in a while. The nightlife is pretty lively with a myriad of clubs and bars interspersed throughout the city. If you're into comedy. Second City is an improvisational theater place where a lot of big names in comedy got their start.
Of course, you can always catch a Cubs' game in Wrigleyville, a Bulls game at the United Center, or, if you want to wait another year, go to a Bears game at the renovated Soldier Field.
Chicago can be on the expensive side, something to be expected from any big city. With swanky clubs and ritzy eating establishments, it's possible to go through vast amounts of cash depending on your budget and willpower. This is not even considering the cost to get there. Nonetheless, attractions and good food can still be found at a fair price. It all depends on who you ask and where you look.
Erin Alley, Wheaton, Ill., freshman said Chicago was the city for her.
"I think Chicago is an amazing town," she said. "There is everything imaginable to do, from shopping to theater to people watching."
Catherine Warren, Lake Forest, Ill., freshman is also captivated by the Windy City.
"I like the big city feeling," she said

Denver
A western-flavored base of the Rockies known as "The Mile High City," Denver boasts a population of more than half million and a lifestyle embedded in history and adventure.
Hundreds of thousands pass through
the city every year and none complain of little to do. Denver offers a variety of vacationing opportunities. People of all ages will be enthralled by one of Colorado's wildest and most popular cultural attractions: the Denver Zoo. Dating back to 1890, this host to the world's endangered species has spread to cover over 80 acres and houses a giant indoor rain forest. By day, visitors can also enjoy one of the four major amusement parks within Denver's boundaries, including Six Flags Elitch Gardens or Water World, America's largest water park.
For those craving a thrill, Denver also showcases the Team Building Concepts Indoor Racing facilities, where a visitor can experience Grand Prix style indoor go-kart racing. A visitor can also sign up for a Geo Tour Whitewater Rafting Trip which offers half or full day tours down the daring rapids of the Arkansas River.
By night, party-seeking tourists can hit up a few of Denver's breweries. The Wyncoop Brewing Company is America's largest brew pub, featuring award-winning ales, a fantastic billiards hall upstairs and a complete showing live comedy in the basement. Other favorite night spots include the Grizzly Rose and B-52 Billiards.
"When people visit Denver, I think the biggest difference they're going to notice about the atmosphere is the culture. It's a lot easier there to go out with friends and see belly-dancers at a Moroccan restaurant or experiment with cigar tasting at a Russian cafe than in a smaller town like Lawrence," Michelle Sanford, Highlands Ranch, Colo., junior said.
According to its residents, Denver is the crossroads of culture for college-age students.
As for hot things to do with a night off?
"There were a couple of places my friends and I liked to drive into Denver for. One place is called Dave and Buster's, which is an interactive bar with a massive playground, movie screens, arcades and of course, alcohol," Sanford said.
Sanford also suggested a club named The Church, which is a dance club that used to be a cathedral. The club plays a different kind of music on every level.
Colorado cruisers can find a ski resort or professional hiking facility all within a two-hour drive.
For college students like Sanford, making the trip to Denver doesn't necessarily mean taking out an extra loan.
"If you've got $40, you can make the drive across Kansas in about eight hours," She said.
Stanford also suggests that, when looking for a place to crash, avoid downtown Denver. The outskirts of the city or its surrounding suburbs feature cheaper chain hotels.

Minneapolis/St. Paul,
Minnesota
St. Paul and Minneapolis Minn., are commonly known as "The Twin Cities," but to Minnesotans, these urban environments have different atmospheres and are considered to be more like fraternal than identical twins. There are only about three months out of the year when southerners may consider the cities' climate comfortable enough for a vacation. To others, who like wearing thick sweaters and coats, the cities offer many cozy places to get warmed up in, worth braving the unfriendly weather
Sarah Gibbs, Waconia, Minn., sophomore, suggested attending one of the many various theme theaters such as the Guthrie, the Ordway, or the Orpheum to name a few.
Lauren O'Brien, Eagen, Minn., freshman, endorsed the many shopping venues along Grand Avenue, Uptown and the Mall of America. She also said visiting Calhoun Lake and Lake of the Isles was a great way to sightsee as well as get some exercise—and it's free.
In general, if historic monuments and old world-class is a traveling priority then St. Paul is the place to go. It's known most familiarly for being the historic state capitol of Minnesota but is also home to Fort Snelling, Landmark Center, the Minnesota Museum of Modern Art and the Ordway Music Theater.
Minneapolis is located just across the Mississippi River and possesses almost the opposite social atmosphere and cultural environment. Whereas the majority of St. Paul's activity occurs during the day, Minneapolis is well known for its upbeat night-life. There are plenty of concerts and games held at the Target Center and just across the street is a variety of dance clubs, known for celebrity appearances. Both the uptown and downtown of Minneapolis have plenty of shopping and dining options all day and through the night.
In order to truly experience the Minnesota multicultural urban environment explore both Minneapolis and St. Paul. By refusing to leave the confines of Mall of America, it's impossible to gain an appreciation for Northern hospitality and culture.

New Orleans
A trip to New Orleans is a great vacation for anyone, but the city of Southern enchantment, mixed cultures, history food, music and crazy nightlife appeals to college students. Day or night, March or October, New Orleans offers nonstop entertainment.
"College students should go down for Mardi Gras and to the Garden District to visit the many bars, clubs and experience the night life in general," said Erin Beaton, Madison, Wis., freshman, who has visited New Orleans five times.
"I felt like a Southern belle with all the historic homes, iron terraces and cobblestone streets," Beth McCoy, Hutchinson freshman, said. "New Orleans is just beautiful."
New Orleans may be famous for its many festivals, but the "Big Easy" atmosphere can be experienced anytime of year. Shopping alone could keep any tourist

busy during the day between antique shopping on Royal Street, checking out the funky stores on Magazine Street and visiting the shopping centers at Canal Place, the Riverwalk and New Orleans Centre.
If shopping and exploring the city is too slow, New Orleans offers many exciting tours such as swamp and river boat excursions, historic home tours and museums. According to New Orleans Online, one of the best tours to see is the Haunted History Tour that explains some of the voodoo history of New Orleans along with a tour of the famous above-ground cemeteries and haunted historic homes.
Finding the best restaurants for Creole and Cajun cooking is also fun according to McCoy.
"There are so many good restaurants," McCoy said. "The food down there is so fresh and I love its spicy flavor."
New Orleans wouldn't be the same without its extravagant festivals that occur at all seasons of the year including "Big Four," the French Quarter music festival in April, the Jazz and Heritage Festival in May, the Fresh Art Festival in October, among many others. Of these celebrations the most famous is Mardi Gras that falls on the Tuesday that is 46 days before Easter and is always the day before Ash Wednesday, the start of Lent. The big parades, parties and crowds usually pick up the Wednesday and Thursday before Mardi Gras and the city turns into one big celebration.
"Mardi Gras is insane," McCoy said. "I don't know anywhere else where more happy people get together and party."
Bourbon Street is internationally famous for its food, music, bars, and strip clubs, but, during Mardi Gras, the street itself is even a party. New Orleans Online recommends a few bars on Bourbon Street to college students, including Pat O'Brian's, which is famous for its Hurricane cocktails, Preservation Hall, which hosts great musicians, Lafitte's Blacksmith Shop, which is the oldest bar in the country and Tropical Isle, famous for its Hand Grenade drink. Other hot spots for students who like to dance include: Cat's Meow, Razzoo and Bourbon Street Blues.
If the team performs well this season. New Orleans may have a lot of Jayhawk fans traveling to New Orleans in April, where the NCAA Men's Final Four basketball tournament will be held.
Beaton said that New Orleans could be an extravagant vacation or a cheap one.
"It's definitely affordable for college students," Beaton said. "You don't have to stay in a five star hotel and eat first class to have fun."
— Erica Wolfe
New Orleans is about a ten-hour drive from Lawrence, and, depending on the season, airplane tickets can be inexpensive.
"Driving is cheap and with a group of people staying in one hotel room it's really not that expensive," McCoy said.
New York City
The Big Apple, otherwise known as New York City, has always set the tone for the world. From food to fashion, from Wall Street to Broadway, this city has it all.
Since Sept. 11, the city has been healing and seems rejuvenated. People have come to trust New York again and, with more than 7 million people living in the city, it is truly more alive than ever.
With the best of the best in stores, clothes and food, prices can run into the extreme. Students on a budget should consider eating at the thousands of little restaurants, which can be just as good as larger, fancier eateries, and can reduce the amount of money spent on food. Otherwise, in a city driven by the power of money, visitors will need a bunch of cash on hand.
Visitors can experience some of the best restaurants in the world, the most prestigious and eclectic stores and the premiere museums of art and history. Also on hand are the hottest clubs, the classiest bars, the most famous coffee shops, the most beautiful parks, movie theaters that are actually theaters, the lights of Broadway, the intimate shows of off-Broadway, the breathtaking landmarks, the thrill of Coney Island and the nearby beaches and mountains. Everything anyone could possibly want to do can be done in the city that never sleeps.
"It is just so cool because everything is always open, it doesn't matter if it's two in the morning or two in the afternoon," he said. "You can never get bored."
Ryan Craig, Leawood junior, said his favorite part of the city was going to Central Park.

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Pittsburgh, a city rich in history, has not fallen into the stereotype of being old-fashioned. A visit to southwestern Pennsylvania will enlighten the guest to the modernity of a metropolis right from the pages of a history textbook.
Built on a solid foundation, literally. Pennsylvania cities like Pittsburgh were home to the steel industry that contributed to the nation's industrial growth.The city prospered from its production and continues to be considered a thriving center of business and activity.
--that South Padre Island faces each year much like San Juan Capistrano with its swallows — except Padre's visitors are bigger and tend to raise their blood alcohol level dangerously close to their GPAs.
Right off of Route 579, Pittsburgh is easy to find. If driving there seems too long of a trip, a flight from Kansas City International to Pittsburgh International Airport is about $185, depending on when the ticket is purchased. Once in Pittsburgh, it is considerably cheaper to get around.
Transportation in the downtown area is free until 7 p.m. Monday through Friday. Downtown offers many opportunities for enjoyment, including cafes, specialty stores, parks, health clubs and musical venues.
Visitors should definitely do the tourist-style gawk at the architecture. An adult ticket to Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater is $10 on weekdays and $15 on weekends. The Heinz Memorial Chapel will also last in the visitor's memory. Historic sites abound for a visitor to tour, including Fort Necessity ($3) and Fort Pitt ($2.50).
If visitors still finds themselves with too much free time on their hands, they should travel to any one of the Carnegie museums. The Carnegie Museum of Art is $8 admittance, the Carnegie Museum of Natural History is $6, and the Carnegie Science Center is $14.
Depending on the day, visitors can take in any number of fine shows, from theater, orchestra, opera, dance and film, to many concerts. Depending on the season, visitors can root for the home team at the many sporting events that occur in Pittsburgh. Football's Pittsburgh Steelers, hockey's Pittsburgh Penguins, and baseball's Pittsburgh Pirates give the fans reason to cheer.
If students just wants to take in the atmosphere, they should not worry. The college population is easy to blend in with and has many activities they enjoy. Shopping, clubs, restaurants and outdoor entertainment abound and aim to please.
Although a trip to Pittsburgh may not be a quick weekend trip, it is definitely a destination to consider when in the area or looking for a great place to visit.
Chelsey Pryor, Washington, Pa., freshman, is from a town on the edge of Pittsburgh.
"There are plenty of things to do there; so much you can do historical wise," She said. "It is a very educational place to go, but there is so much more than just the history there."
South Padre Island, Texas
— Hannah Franko
Imagine miles of beautiful beaches, sparkling blue water, and a small town of less than 2,000 people. Now imagine it being invaded by an army consisting of 100,000 stir-crazy college students determined to fit a lifetime of memories into a week. This is the unusual phenomenon
South Padre Island is an entertaining place to visit year-round. The weather and natural beauty are amazing. Dan Quandt, the Executive Director of the South Padre Island Convention and Visitors Bureau, said the island had a number of unusual attributes. It is a true island, located two-and-a-half miles off the southern tip of Texas with wide, clean beaches. Five miles of the island are devoted to the Town of South Padre Island. The remaining twenty-nine miles are virgin beaches with no development just the sand, and lots of water.
In the summer, the island's waters are among the warmest in the nation.
"It's like stepping into bath water," Quandtsaid.
Visitors who prefer an active vacation instead of scoping out bathing suits on a pristine beach needn't worry, because South Padre Island has all the bases covered.
Some of the local amenities include sky diving, golfing, parasailing, dolphin watching, horseback riding, night clubs, a giant water park, scuba diving, fishing and the tallest bungee jump in Texas. According to South Padre local Lucinda Wierenga, who runs spionline.com, "there is even an unofficial 'clothing optional' beach for college kids to hang around."
The best part is that the hotels are cheap enough during the off season that visitors can actually afford these activities. A basic, clean hotel costs as little as $35 a night, and a nice room with a balcony and kitchen goes for $200 a night.
Coca-Cola beach outside the Radisson hotel always has lots of people and free samples for the brave souls who venture out into the sun. Nightclubs like the Bahia Mar, Louie's Backyard, and Tequila Frogs are rocking the night till closing time. Matamoros, Mexico and its clubs are just a short drive away where the legal age to drink is only eighteen. The only problem during spring break is that students need to book early and be prepared to spend some cash. It is much more cost effective to drive 1,100 miles to South Padre Island with a bunch of people than to take a plane.
South Padre Island is extremely friendly towards college students on spring break, though the cops have been on high alert to keep things under control in the past.
South Padre Island can't be beat for a vacation as a wet and wild adventure or a peaceful sabbatical.

Book explores God, religion in conflicts
"The world is in trouble. Bigger trouble than it has ever been before."
BOOKS
This is the first thing Neale Donald Walsch has to say in The New Revelations: A Conversation with God. His story deals with conflict we find in our lives today. That is how his Conversations with God series began.
As he began to write down some questions,he said a voice guided him through some answers.
"Back about 10 years ago, my life was falling apart and nothing was working," Walsch said in an interview. "I was always depressed, because I didn't understand what was happening. I had been doing what society had asked me and what my parents told me to do."
"What does it take to make life work? What have I done to deserve life containing struggle? What are the rules? I found myself involved in some dialogue on a page," Walsch said. "I wound up writing two nights a week for about a year until I had literally 100 pages of question/ answer."
That began to change on a February night in 1992. Walsch said he couldn't sleep and instead found his way into his den, where he felt compelled to grab a yellow legal pad and vent all of his anger.
A
Eventually, this dialogue evolved into what has become the Conversations with God series. Walsch has published 15 books, many of which have made The New York Times bestseller list.
He was in Kansas City last week to talk about his thoughts on organized religion, war and other topics discussed in the book.
Currently, Walsch is in the middle of a 14-city book tour to promote his recently released The New Revelations: A Conversation with God.
"It talks about the crisis in the world," Walsch said. "Exclusist organized religion is taking us down the path to selfdestruction."
Walsch doesn't only say that the world is in trouble, but his dialogue explains how to solve the crisis.
Throughout the book, Walsch lays out nine new revelations about life, death and the way we perceive organized religion. He also states fallacies about life and God that are common truths in today's societies.
In the introduction, Walsch said it was
Leslie Kimmel
lkimmel@kansan.com
not necessary to accept that he did have this conversation with God, but that "you merely have to be willing to follow the conversation, consider its contents, explore the possibility of applying them in your life and observe the results."
This is a good piece of advice.
At first Walsch's message seemed questionable, but it was reassuring when he said he didn't expect the reader to believe it was the word of God.
Walsch also discussed different belief systems and how they bring about war.
"The reason that people have war is because they see themselves as superior to other people, and this is a very damaging concept," Walsch said in his interview. "I think that there is a very good chance that we will go to war with Iraq. This is a good example of people's arrogance because we think that some people will attack us."
Walsch's concepts are easy to relate to and helpful in understanding our current crisis with Iraq, but the ideas are long and drawn out, have multiple steps and sometimes go in circles.
For instance, Walsch discusses certain belief systems in parts of several chapters. It took reading a majority of the book to figure out that Walsch thought our economic and political problems came from behaviors caused by false beliefs.
Anyone who enjoys having multiple rules or seeing several examples to work through theological questions could appreciate this book. It is also good reading for those interested in how organized religion and belief systems play a part in war and conflicts.
Walsch also said that, because these issues are usually important to college students, his new book can become a part of students' everyday lives.
"If what I'm saying causes a person to shake their head 'yes,' they may need to take a look at these messages and apply them to their daily lives," he said.

Sebelius brings changes, declares self Caesar
By Patrick Cady beak@kansan.com Kansan satire writer
Nearly a week after her gubernatorial victory in Kansas, Kathleen Sebelius declared herself "Caesar" in a ceremony that left many top political analysts speechless.
"When I heard the sound of a thousand trumpets blaring, I thought it was just a glorified high school band practice." said Elmer Schuttlich, editor of Topeka or Not Topeka: Journal of Free
Thought and a Topeka native. "But, when I saw our new govern... I mean, emperor waving her hand and wearing a crown of fig leaves, I knew something was up. At least now she's bringing the republic back to the Republicans."
The ceremony, which reportedly lasted throughout the weekend, included a gigantic feast of potato salad followed by an impromptu race at the Kansas Speedway.
Following the race Sebelius Caesar addressed the people while holding a scepter of gold-covered wheat.
"I promised change on election night, and now you have it, my people," Sebelius said. "Now, I promise even greater change for our burgeoning republic, and gladiators, lots and lots of gladiators."
Her speech was greeted with waves of people chanting "Hail Sebelius," to which she told the crowd to "never mind that whole governor-elect thing."
The ceremony made an impression on Josh Strothingford, Gypsum senior, when his fraternity mistook the event for a giant toga party.
"When we couldn't find the keg, I was a little disappointed," Strothingford said. "But watching history and the birth of a second Roman republic definitely made up for it."
Meanwhile, in Washington, D.C., a befuddled President George W. Bush held a press conference on the issue.
"When I wished Kansas much succeedment in its future, I didn't think that they'd actually secede," Bush said. "Besides, I still want their oil."
Video geeks arrested for bragging
By Henry C. Jackson
beak@kansan.com
Kansas satire writer
Authorities released two KU students from custody late last night after they were arrested early Tuesday morning for murder, inciting a riot, paying for sex and "beating some dude on the street's ass."
Although police officials initially thought the pair had embarked on a legitimate crime spree, a Lawrence police official admitted blushingly that the pair had "just been playing Grand Theft Auto: Vice City."
Lawrence police officers moved swiftly to arrest Aaron McDyess, Chicago sophomore, and Darren Drozdoff, Topeka junior, after a tip from a bartender at It's Brothers, 1105 Massachusetts St. The two apparently had held a loud conversation at the bar, bragging about their criminal escapades. An alarmed bartender quietly called the police as he served the duo alcohol late into the night. While police felt confident they had just nailed two of Lawrence's "hardest criminals," Lawrence police officer Dick Stepas admitted that the two were no threat to public safety.
"They're not guilty of anything," Stepas said. "Unless you consider talking about video games at a bar to be a crime. But that's a moral thing. I wouldn't arrest them but maybe chastise them for being losers. I mean, seriously, you bought a video game. Why are you talking about it at Brothers, with all that fine rump around?"
Drozdoff refused to comment to *Tongue in Beak*, except to say that he was "relieved" that police had sorted out the situation.
McDvess was more candid.
"I love Grand Theft Auto games," McDyess said. "I just go around beating people up. And I'm not afraid to talk to anybody about it. People might say I'm a dork for talking about it. Fine. But they're not getting a prostitute to boost their health, then furtively attacking her to get back the money you paid for her. I am."
Bloodletting criticized; club feels misunderstood
By Adrian Zink
beak@kansan.com
Kansan satire writer
For the eight members of the KU Bloodletting Club, dealing with misunderstandings of their science is a daily routine.
Pomer Guile, president of the club and Paola senior, said, "There are a lot of people that come up to us and say things like, 'You fools. Bloodletting was recognized as pure quackery in the 19th century.' You just have to let snide comments slide off your back. I mean, if we all go around ... wait a minute ... I need to sit down for a second. I'm feeling lightheaded. Whew."
The group meets every Monday night and talks about the benefits of bloodletting, and whenever one of them feels ill, the blood starts to flow.
"People think we're out of touch with science," said member Gottleib Raimey, Olathe freshman. "George Washington did bloodletting. Could the founder of the greatest nation in the world really ... oh man ... I think I'm going to pass out. It must be that sandwich I ate earlier. I need to lie down for a while."
The bloodletting club isn't the only one of its kind, said Vice President and DeSoto junior Neal Ardenhauer. There are similar chapters at the University of Old Delhi and at West Virginia Tech.

Bush pleads for War in Iraq
Mohammad Bush, 27-year-old Iraqi, recently made a plea to bring War to Iraq.
Bush has been listening to War since he was in grade school.
"When I first heard "Low Rider," I played it over and over on our village's only record player ... that was, until the local policeman cut off all of the fingers on my right hand," Bush said through his interpreter. The plea
for War was in the form of an airmail letter addressed to War harmonica player Lee Oskar.
In the letter, Bush asked the group to include Baghdad on its upcoming tour of the Middle East. According to the band's Web site, War in Iraq is still not on this year's schedule. War could not be reached for comment.

University invalidates art history
By Brandon Gay

"Studies have now shown that having an art history degree is actually detrimental to your career," the spokesman said. "Signs that your degree may be defective are inability to get a job, mockery from your friends and living in your parent's basement."
Kasich's parents, who occupy the upstairs portion of what Kasich calls her "cute little below-ground one-bedroom apartment," were happy to hear the news of the recall.
"After about a year of no employment, I began to wonder if something was wrong with my degree," Kasich said. "Now, I've been out of work for almost a decade and I want KU to take this degree back. I'm getting tired of the unemployment office. The copies of Renoir paintings from the late 19th century they have hanging on the walls are breathtaking. The delicate brush strokes are typical of Renoir's impressionist period. But other than that, unemployment really stinks."
"We were just so saddened to see our daughter be led astray by the University like that," Mona Kasich said. "We tried to stop her from pursuing art history, but there comes a point when you just have to let your children make their own mistakes."
The University is sending recall notices out to all holders of an art history degree, asking them to bring in their degrees in for immediate shredding. As compensation, the former graduates will be given $100 in coupons to Jayhawk Bookstore, a free course catalog so they can begin selecting a new major and a plastic basketball hoop when they sign up for a credit card.
The University of Kansas has issued an immediate recall of all art history degrees given to students during its 138-year history.
According to a University spokesman, the degrees have been found to be defective.
Janet Kasich, 1993 graduate, has been out of work for nine years since receiving her degree.

President has support Novak says
By Kelly McNearney
kmcnearney@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Last week's election results indicated that the American public supported President Bush and had forgotten about Enron and WorldCom. Robert Novak told a large crowd at the Lied Center last night.
Ivan I. Pavlovich
Novak
Novak, a political commentator, spoke as this year's School of Business Anderson Chandler lecturer.
Novak is the cohost of CNN's Evans, Novak, Hunt and Shields interview show. He often appears on the network's Capitol Gang and is a co-host of Crossfire. He is the author of "Inside Report," a nationally-syndicated column in its 36th year of publication.
Novak spoke to a large crowd of students, faculty and Lawrence residents at the Lied Center.
He held nothing back and spoke on a wide range of subjects.
The audience booed Novak when he confessed to being a die-hard Maryland basketball fan, and laughed when he suggested presidents should spend more time sleeping to avoid running the country into the ground.
He said the Enron scandal was not an issue that affected Americans enough to influence voters and that people voted Republican because they did not want to desert President Bush in the midst of the war on terrorism.
Novak said Bush was a stronger President since gaining control of both the House and Senate. He called him a man with limited vocabulary, but great leadership.
Kade Weiser, Salina senior and business major, said he enjoyed Novak's opinions on government involvement in business and the liberal media.
"I liked how he said his stance was for less government involvement in business as opposed to more," he said. "I agree with him. I definitely think that the media is liberal. I have yet to see anyone really ultra-conservative in the media."
Wall of HATE
Edited by Matt Gehrke
Students break wall, stereotypes
By Katie Nelson
knelson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A colorful array of umbrellas hovered above Stauffer-Flint lawn as a wall of hate came crashing down yesterday. Bright reds, dark blues, yellows, blacks and whites: the mix of umbrellas was almost as diverse as the people they shielded from the mist.
Since Wednesday morning, words phrases and symbols of discrimination were painted on an 8-foot tall cinder block wall by members of the KU community.
Racial slurs and stereotypes were smeared across gray bricks for all to see as they crossed campus.
"I think it's amazing," said C.J. Wilford, St. Louis senior, as he looked
tear-down cer-
mony. "If the
goal was to
get people
from differen-
ent ethnici
ties s
stages
back
ground
a n
walk
of lif
a l
together, then they succeeded."
But the the Writing on the Wall Project was more than that.
It was a project designed to raise awareness about the often invisible walls created by human hatred, said Janet Murguia, KU's executive vice chancellor for University Relations in the ceremony's keynote speech. The building, painting and subsequent tearing down of the wall symbolized a desire to rid society of the negative sentiments it holds.
Murguia commended the Association of University Residence Halls, the Multicultural Resource Center and the other groups who sponsored the event for helping others gain a greater appreciation for human diversity.
"Walls isolate and give a false sense of security," she said. "They need to be torn down to unite, to free from self imposed prisons."
After the about 50-member crew pulled the wall down with ropes, they tore down the remaining two feet of concrete with sledge hammers and their bare hands.
Students lined up to toss the unbroken cinder blocks into the pile. Eventually, one at a time, the unbroken blocks joined the rubble on the ground, shattering into little pieces.
"It shows us that discrimination does exist and it affects everyone," said Will Bohne, Leavenworth freshman and associate senator multicultural affairs committee. "Stereotypes exist within this University, so we need to realize that and break down those walls, so we can appreciate people for what and who they are."

Beck's sold-out show ready to draw crowd
By Louise Stauffer
lstauffer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
For fans of Beck and The Flaming Lips, tomorrow night the Lied Center is where it's at.
James Heit, Larned freshman, said he wanted to get tickets to the show but couldn't get them because they sold out so quickly.
The Beck and Flaming Lips concert will begin at 8 p.m. tomorrow night, and the 2,024 tickets are sold out, Michael Stoecker, Lied Center employee said. The price is $35 before service charges.
Heit said he thought it was strange that Beck was performing at the Lied Center because it was a small venue.
Stoecker said about 1,500 tickets were sold during the online presale.
"I expected him to go to Kansas City." Stoecker, a Jetmore senior said. "But I was stoked when I heard. I've been a fan
since 'Loser.'"
Cassie Waddell, Stockton sophomore, said the main reason she was going to the show was to see The Flaming Lips.
Waddell said she got her ticket online through Ticketmaster five hours after the tickets went on sale. She acknowledged that dancing at the show would be impaired because of the assigned seating at the Lied Center.
"I've recently got into them," she said. "I love it."
Despite the expected full house, Stoecker said the Lied Center was planning to use normal house procedures.
"But I'd rather have them here than not at all," she said.
"The Beck crowd is pretty mellow," he said. "There might be a few more house users than normal."

Cemetery holds link to city's past
By Michelle Burhenn

Kansan staff writer
New buildings on the University of Kansas' West Campus surroumd a six-acre reminder of Lawrence's past.
Kansas' earliest pioneers, including victims of Quantrill's Raid and the Civil War, are buried alongside KU faculty and employees in Pioneer Cemetery near the Lied Center.
Pioneer Cemetery was founded in 1855, a year after New Englanders arrived in Lawrence.
Established as Oread Cemetery, the City of Lawrence renamed it Pioneer Cemetery in 1928. The cemetery fell into disrepair after Oak Hill Cemetery was bought in 1865, said Karl Gridley, local historian.
The cemetery remained unused and became overgrown with weeds until Chancellor Franklin Murphy discovered the cemetery on a walk in 1952. Murphy worked with the city, and the property was deeded to the University of Kansas Endowment Association for its use as a cemetery. Since the Association acquired the cemetery, a fence and entryway were added.
After years of neglect, many of the headstones that would tell stories of Lawrence's history no longer remain.

Group to solicit pledges on America Recycles Day
KU Enviroons and the Environmental Studies Student Association will encourage students to pledge to recycle today on Wescoe Beach.
The two groups are co-sponsoring America Recycles Day. As part of the national event, environmental groups around the country are circulating pledge cards that people can sign to indicate their commitment to recycling and buying recycled products said Sarah Stratton, ESSA member and Derby sophomore.
Environs and ESSA will have pledge cards at a table on Wescoe Beach between 10:30 a.m. and 2 p.m today. Students who sign and return the card will be entered into a national drawing for prizes including a Trek mountain bike, Stratton said.
Stacey Reding, chairwoman of the Student Environmental Awareness Board, said that to commemorate the day, the board had sent letters to the chairpersons of academic departments on campus asking them to encourage their faculty members to make an announcement about America Recycles Day and the importance of recycling.

English family tracing roots to "Jayhawk" abolitionist
LAWRENCEN — An English woman hopes to find evidence linking her to a Kansas abolitionist reputed to have been one of the original Jayhawks.
Sheila Margaret Coates and her husband, Peter Coates, of Hull, England, visited remnants of the Lawrence home of John Doy this week. Doy arrived in the area in 1854 with the New England Emigrant Aid Co., which brought the first settlers to Lawrence.
On Jan. 20, 1859, Doy was escorting 12 escaped slaves to Oskaloosa when the group was captured by 20 Missouri border ruffians.
Doy was accused of the federal offense of helping slaves escape and was held in a jail for five months until 10 Lawrence men lied their way into the jail and rescued Doy and his son, Charles.
These days, Doy is known mainly because of the photograph showing him seated in front of his 10 grim-faced rescuers. The photo has been used in city promotional literature as depicting "the original Jayhawks."
The couple came across Doy by accident when a family member brought home a book on the American Wild West.
Through Judy Sweets, collection manager at the Watkins Community Museum, they learned the Kansas abolitionist had ties to their hometown of Hull and perhaps their own family.

Nine army linguists dismissed; translators still needed for war
The soldiers' dismissals come at a time when the military is facing a critical shortage of translators and interpreters for the war on terrorism.

Peer educators try to fund program
By Lindsay Hanson
lhanson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A group of campus peer educators has hit a road block in the attempt to expand its program.
Last week, Student Senate tabled legislation to fund KU Peer Educators.
Although Watkins Memorial Health Center has used a peer health education program to certify students as public educators for years, the group registered with the Student Organizations and Leadership Development Center this year to garner more visibility on campus in hopes of recruiting more members, said Carol Seager, director of Watkins administration.
But when the KU Peer Educators approached Student Senate last week for $713 in unallocated funds, the money that goes to newly established student groups, the finance committee was skeptical.
All University students pay $91 for a student health fee at the beginning of each semester.
The committee tabled the proposal to investigate why the student health fee hadn't provided ample funds for the group as it had in the past.
"We have been funding them for years and we're going to continue funding them," Seager said.
The group approached Senate to increase existing funds to expand the program, she said.
But KU's Peer Educators
differs from other student organizations, said Mike Appleby, senior member of the finance committee and Lawrence junior.
He said the group had fundraising restrictions, unlike other student groups. He said he voted against the bill because Watkins had recommended the group not solicit funds from other health professionals.
Susan Hochman, KU Peer Educators coordinator and Midland, Texas, junior, said the group had decided on its own not to solicit funds from sources outside the University.
"It was against our better judgment," she said.
Appleby said another strike against the program's quest for Senate funds was its office location at Watkins.
"I actually like the idea of the program," he said. "But they're an arm of Watkins; they're not a student group."
KU Peer Educator gives health presentations to student groups, including many fraternities and sororities and during campuswide events, such as next week's Great American Smoke Out. Presentations address sex, alcohol, stress management, nutrition and other student-related topics.
Hochman said the group hadn't decided whether to continue to pursue Senate funds.
Senate will readdress the KU Peer Educators bill at Wednesday's finance committee meeting.

Greeks select governing councils
By Todd Rapp
trapp@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
The Interfraternity Council and the Panhellenic Association are about to take on a new slate of leaders.
The Interfraternity Council and the Panhellenic Association held elections for their executive boards over the last two weeks, and the recently elected members will take charge of the ruling bodies Nov. 21.
The new presidents are Egan Waggoner, Beloit junior and Lambda Chi Alpha member, for the Interfraternity Council, and Shelby Gigous, Topeka junior and Alpha Chi Omega member, for the Panhellenic Association. The vice presidents for recruitment in the two organizations are Andrew Wymore, Leawood junior and Sigma Alpha Epsilon
member, for Interfraternity Council, and Stephanie Cameron, Springfield, Mo., junior and Delta Gamma member, for the Panhellenic Association.
The two organizations govern the individual chapters at the University of Kansas, and serve as the link between the national bodies of the Interfraternity Council and the Panhellenic Association. The Interfraternity Council represents fraternities. The Panhellenic Association represent sororities.
Gigous said the most important thing for her to do first was to get to know her executive board. She said she didn't have plans for future projects because she has yet to work with her board, but she did have a personal goal for her executive board.
"I want women in the Panhellenic community to know who their executive board is. I want all of us to get out there and show
people what we do for them," she said.
The executive boards don't just affect the internal workings of the Greek community. If the president and executive board do a good job getting their message out, they can do a lot to fight stereotypes, said Blake Shuart, current public affairs vice president for the Interfraternity Council.
"When we get people who are able to coordinate effective programs — even though they are coordinated by the greek community — they are open to everyone and can impact them positively," said Shuart, Topeka senior.
Bob McKenney, program assistant for the fraternity and sorority life, said the boards can project a positive image of the greek community.
"If you get a strong board with new ideas that can open them up for interaction with other organizations," McKenney said. "But if you get an apathetic board, a board that takes pride in the Greek system to the point that they exclude other organizations, then a problem can arise."
McKenney said the newly elected boards had as strong of leadership as always this year. The people elected for the positions have been successful in chapter positions in their own houses.
"We definitely have a lot of experience coming in. We aren't bringing in blind dogs, so the outlook for the next term looks pretty good." McKenney said.
Gigous said that she hoped to follow in the previous boards' examples.
"They have done so well, and if I can just build on that, this next year will be fabulous," Gigous said.

The latest round of tuitionfinanced projects will directly benefit students, University of Kansas officials said yesterday.
Better wages for student employees, additional staffing for the Freshmen-Sophomore Advising Center, more money for Career Counseling and Planning Services and classroom improvements were the projects outlined at a press conference yesterday.
Funding for these projects comes from the tuition increase that went into effect this fall. The University allocated $8.6 million
of the tuition money for improvements.
Student Body President Jonathan Ng said that students should see results from the tuition increase that took effect this fall.
Starting next semester, the University will increase the starting wage for student workers to $6 per hour. Of the 4,801 student jobs, 1,056 pay less than $6 per hour.
"Students can make more money flipping hamburgers at Wendy's than they can at an on-campus job," said Senior Vice Provost Kathleen McCluskey-Fawcett.
The University will spend $150,000 to improve student wages. Students who make
between $6 and $10 per hour could see raises of about 50 cents per hour.
The Freshmen-Sophomore Advising Center will receive $116,000, which will pay for three additional full-time advisers, a secretary and more computers, McCluskey-Fawcett said. The additional staff members will allow the center to help about 1,000 more students, she said.
Career Counseling and Planning Services will move from Watkins Health Center to the Burge Union to be in the same building as University Career and Employment Services.
The move, which involves relocating Legal Services to a renovated office in the Burge, will cost
$185,600.
The University set aside $500,000 for classroom improvements, like the refurbishing of the two lecture rooms in Wescoe Hall.
If the budget cuts go much deeper, money for enhancements may be used for maintenance and to fill gaps left by the state's lack of funding. Ng said.
"In order for there to continue to be enhancements," Ng said, "the state is going to have to do their part to make sure we're funded adequately."

KANSAN EDITORIAL BOARD
Edgehill Road, a 30-foot wide, oneway street near Phi Delta Theta fraternity and Sigma Delta Tau sorority, has parking available on both sides of the street.
Safety should have been reason for parking decision
One neighborhood resident, Steven Watts, who lives at the corner of Louisiana Street and Edgehill Road, petitioned the city in September to prohibit parking on the south-side of the street.
This ordinance should pass for safety reasons alone. However, in this case, safety appears to have taken a backseat to people's complaints.
Because at a width of 30 feet, Edgehill Road is several feet narrower than normal streets, the Lawrence-Douglas County Fire and Medical Department recommends that parking along Edgehill Road be restricted to only one side of the street for safety reasons, and to guarantee the access of fire and medical personnel.
It is disappointing that the city had to wait until one man griped about students parking in front of his house in order to take action on a valid safety concern.
According to Deputy Chief Mark Bradford, the Lawrence-Douglas County Fire and Medical Department had been concerned about the safety hazard presented by the narrowness of Edgehill Road before Watts's complaint became public.
As a result, they recommend that parking be limited 270 feet from the corner of Louisiana Street and Edgehill Road, enough room to grant emergency
vehicles access to the buildings and structures located on the street.
The problem was this new ordinance did not arise first and foremost out of concern for the safety and well-being of all Lawrence residents.
As he said in articles in the Lawrence Journal-World and The University Daily Kansan, Watts is tired of students parking in front of his house and sometimes blocking his driveway.
Other residents of neighborhoods near campus echo his annoyance at students taking parking places away from residents.
However, KU students are not just a part of the University community, they truly are members of the Lawrence community.
While obeying traffic laws and not blocking driveways, they have as much right to park near their homes as any other Lawrence resident. It would be unfeasible and illogical to ban parking on certain streets solely because some people believe that too many students are parking there.
Though it is disappointing that it took one man's complaints to see any action on this issue, the Lawrence City Commission should pass this proposed ordinance, but only because of the valid concern for safety.
All other reasons and motives, although they may be understandable and easy to sympathize with, are extraneous when the safety of residents becomes an issue.

PERSPECTIVES
Criticism of Boise protest was reactionary, unfounded
GUEST COMMENTARY
The column criticizing the "Environs' tree theatres" (Nov.12) by Audrey Snyder illustrates how the political perspective of many in this country is awash with ignorance.
A. J. K. P. S. M. A. B. C. D. E. F. G. H. I
Jason Beury opinion@kansan.com
The basis of Snyder's argument against the KU Environcs could very well be considered just as much of an "attention-seeking escape."
The article is simply an example of superficial criticism of the left that, while attempting to belittle and discredit those involved, fails to make a sound argument against the substance of the issue being protested.
That Snyder is a political science major is a cause for worry. The ignorance reflected in Snyder's criticism is very obvious and hopefully does not reflect the argumentative process of the average political science major.
Someone criticizing an event that is meant to inform the public regarding an environmental issue could have been better informed.
Green-washing is a term used by many to describe the corporate tendency to uphold the appearance of environmental justice, thus the corporation itself should not be considered as the final word on the environmental impact of its actions.
Is Snyder aware that Boise Cascade is not required to place restrictions on old-
In July of 2001, Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney (D-Ga.) said, "BCC [Boise Cascade Corp.] is essentially contracting a smear campaign through front groups willing to do its dirty work."
Could it be that this Congresswoman was plagued by the very same "imagined problems [that] seem to be a national epidemic" as Snyder suggests? Or, could it be that these problems are real and the "national epidemic" is simply the ignorance of suggesting that such problems are imagined?
The reference to Wal-Mart is also a significant issue refuted by Snyder's ignorance.
What exactly does Snyder realize that
the "champions of local businesses" do not? Snyder also fails to assess the perspective of those whom she labels as "liberals" and their "claim" that a second Wal-Mart would "take business from small, local businesses."
Could it be that such "claims" originate in real circumstances where actual local businesses have gone under when a Wal-Mart appears nearby?
The poor quality of life that many of the maquiladora workers face south of the border in factories that make many of the products found in Wal-Mart stores could explain the how "Wal-Mart sells goods more cheaply."
Wal-Mart does not even consider it as economically beneficial to sell its goods "more cheaply" to the communities it employs to manufacture those very same goods "more cheaply."
Open your eyes KU.
In the coming years we are to face some of the most trying economic, social and political issues yet experienced by the world. The globalization of capitalism does have ill effects we must address and not simply dismiss as an "imagined... national epidemic."
Ignoring problems, or attempting to discredit those who expose them, will not make them disappear.

you will think that living in a residence hall is the worst thing that could happen.
But with criticism, there's a fine line between bashing and being constructive. As student housing leaders, we feel that the Kansan has ignored the positive side of the residence hall experience to report the flashier negative side.
The Kansan article "An Alarming Occurrence" (Oct. 25) is only one of many stories which proves our point.

especially when McCollum, one of the halls cited for frequent alarms, has shown a tremendous reduction in alarms?
If the intent was to talk about false alarms, then the Kansan was way off base. There was no mention of the fire safety programs that every residence hall and scholarship hall has during the first month of school. In fact, the article made it seem that false alarms are something that residence hall staffs don't try to combat.
It's more than just one article. It is the tone with which almost every story in the Kansan about residence halls has taken. It

We also couldn't find an article about Club Mac, the residence halls contribution to Alcohol Awareness Week.
Residents donated pennies and silver change at the front desk of their hall during "Penny Wars." All of the money raised will be used to improve playground facilities for the children who live in University family housing.

good things that unless they let the Kansan know about them it's hard for us to cover them all," he said.
We are not asking the Kansan to ignore the negative things that happen in the residence hall community. We are asking them to be fair when looking at what to report and what to ignore.
The residence halls are a part of most KU students' college experience. Just think how your life would be different had you never experienced life in a hall.

Iraq prepares for weapons inspectors, predicts trouble ahead
The Associated Press
BAGHDAD, Iraq — A day after accepting a tough new U.N. resolution, Iraq yesterday predicted more trouble ahead with the United States as it prepares to receive the first weapons inspectors in nearly four years.
British Prime Minister Tony Blair, meanwhile, combined a renewed threat of force with an assurance to the Iraqi people that they would be richer if Saddam Hussein was gone.
Babil newspaper, owned by Saddam's son Odal, called on Iraq's traditional Security Council allies — Russia, France and China — to remain vigilant
about America's true intentions.
"Our problem and crisis with the United States is not over yet and may have just begun," the influential newspaper said in a front-page editorial.
Blair, America's staunchest ally, broadcast a message into Iraq saying "The standard of living and prosperity of the Iraqi people would be infinitely greater were Saddam not there."
The prime minister hoped his message would reach Saddam, the Iraqi people "and the wider Arab world," his spokesman said in London. It was broadcast yesterday by the Arabic service of Radio Monte Carlo — the most popular shortwave station reaching Iraq.
"One of the reasons I wanted to speak to you today is to communicate with people directly, because what happens in a situation like this is that there are myths that grow up," Blair said. "I have just dealt with one myth, that this is about Christians versus Muslims — it isn't — or is about the West versus the Arab world, or it's about oil."
Blair said Saddam's regime was "brutal and oppressive," and if he didn't disarm, "the weapons will be disarmed by force."
On the streets of Baghdad, however, ordinary Iraqis expressed concern the Americans were bent on a military showdown regardless of whether their government cooperated
"We are happy that the crisis has been defused for the time being, but I think the war is inevitable," said Salah Ali, a 44-year-old bookstore owner.
with the U.N. inspectors.
Iraq informed the United Nations on Wednesday that it had accepted the latest U.N. resolution and would allow international inspectors to resume the search for weapons of mass destruction, which was suspended in 1998. An advance team of inspectors was expected in Baghdad on Monday, with formal inspections to begin in 10 days.
President Bush has warned the United States will show "zero tolerance" of any Iraqi obstruction
and has threatened war if Baghdad fails to comply with the resolution.
In other developments yesterday:
Iraq insists it no longer possesses any banned weapons, despite Washington's insistence it does. In the editorial, Babil said Iraq's acceptance of the "unjust resolution" shows its "good intentions and reaffirms that the country is clear of weapons of mass destruction."
A senior official of Lebanon's militant Hezbollah group said America was determined to attack Iraq, despite Baghdad's acceptance of inspectors. "The U.N. Security Council resolution ... will not
prevent this war because there are vital and strategic interests for America in the Gulf region and the Middle East, at the forefront of which is controlling the oil wells," Sheik Khodor Nouredine said.
Malaysia said Saddam had postponed war by allowing the return of the inspectors. "For the time being, there will be a respite," Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad was quoted as saying by the national Bernama news agency.
Mexican President Vicente Fox, whose country is on the Security Council, said the United Nations must be consulted before any military action.
Jurors sentence Carr brothers
The Associated Press
WICHITA — Jurors decided yesterday evening two brothers convicted in the execution-style slayings of four friends on a snow-covered soccer field should be put to death.
It took jurors about seven hours to decide the fate of Reginald Carr, who turned 25 yesterday, and his brother Jonathan, 22, who were convicted last week of capital murder for the Dec. 15, 2000, deaths of four people, and of attempted murder for the shooting of a fifth person that day.
The brothers also were convicted of first-degree murder in the shooting of a woman four days before the Dec. 15 murders.
The Carrs showed no visible emotion as the sentences were read. But when the brothers were being taken from the courtroom, Mark Befort, a brother of one of the victims, sarcastically wished Reginald Carr a "happy birthday," followed by an expletive. Reginald Carr's response was laced with profanity.
Jurors earlier this month returned capital murder convictions in the deaths of Aaron Sander, 29, Brad Heyka, 27, Jason Befort, 26, and Heather Muller, 25. All four were shot execution style in the back of the head as they knelt side-by-side in the field.
Befort's girlfriend, then a 25-year-old teacher, was also shot in the head in the field, but escaped
and ran to get help. She survived to testify against the brothers.
Many of the family members of the victims held hands with each other as the verdicts were read. Outside the courtroom, they tearfully hugged District Attorney Nola Foulston. Family members have declined to comment until after today's sentencing.
The most notorious of the crimes happened during two days in December 2000 when two armed intruders entered a Wichita home. The two women and three men inside were forced to engage in sexual acts with each other and to withdraw money from ATMs. The women were repeatedly raped before the five friends were taken to the soccer field and shot.

Virginia executes Pakistani man
JARRATT, Va. — A Pakistani man who killed two CIA employees in a 1993 shooting rampage outside the agency's headquarters was executed yesterday as the State Department warned of global retaliation against Americans.
Aimal Khan Kasi, 38; died by injection at the Greensville Correctional Center at 9:07 p.m.
"There is no god but Allah," Kasi said, softly chanting in his native tongue until he lost consciousness.
Hours before the execution, the U.S. Supreme Court rejected an appeal and Gov. Mark R. Warner denied a request for clemency, saying Kasi had "shown absolutely no remorse for his actions."
"There is no god but Allah."
Allah.
Aimal Khan Kasi
Aimal Khan Kasi Pakistani man executed for killing two CIA agents
Last week, the State Department warned that Kasi's execution could lead to acts of vengeance against Americans everywhere. Two days after his conviction, assailants shot and killed four American oil company workers in Karachi, Pakistan.
Some Pakistani politicians pleaded with American officials to spare Kasi's life, saying commutation could "win the hearts of millions" and help the United States in its war on terrorism.
Hundreds of religious students protested in Pakistan this week, warning Americans there that
they would not be safe if Kasi dies.
Kasi killed CIA communications worker Frank Darling, 28, and CIA analysis and physician Lansing Bennett, 66, as they sat in their cars at a stoplight.
Three other men — an engineer, an AT&T employee and a CIA analyst — were wounded as Kasi walked along a row of stopped cars, shooting into them with an AK-47 rifle.
He fled the country and spent most of the next 41/2 years hiding in and around the city of Kandahar in southern Afghanistan.
He was caught in a hotel while visiting Pakistan and was returned to the United States.
Kasi confessed to the slayings during the return flight, saying he was angry over CIA meddling in Muslim nations.

The winner of the contest was Delphos freshman Jake Nelson, who sang "Debra" from the album Midnight Vultures.
Nelson, who wore a tiedyed suit he borrowed from a friend, gave one of the tickets he won to Eric Braem, the runner-up.
Braem, who is a photographer for The University Daily Kansan, sang "Hollywood Freaks" from the same album and said Nelson was very considerate.
"I thought both of our performances were equally fun and rousing," said Braem, Hopkins, Minn., junior.

Character actor accused of sex crimes
LOS ANGELES — Actor Jeffrey Jones, best known as the suspicious high school principal in Ferris Bueller's Day Off, was arrested yesterday for allegedly having sex with a 17-year-old boy and possessing child pornography, authorities said.
Jones, 36, surrendered and was freed on $20,000 bail, said Officer Jason Lee, a police spokesman.
Arraignment was scheduled for Nov. 21.
Police began investigating Jones last November after a minor came forward claiming "alleged criminal acts of a sexual nature." Lee said.
A widely recognized character actor, Jones also played the father in Beetlejuice.

About 95 people were buried before 1880, Gridley said. He said 25 of the headstones were now missing, victims of pranks and target practice for young marksmen over the years.
Of the headstones that remain, many are reminders of Lawrence's bloody history during the Civil War.
Thomas W. Barber's grave is marked with a large obelisk marker. Gridley said Barber was the first casualty to pro-slavery militants in Kansas. He was shot by Lecompton militants as he was returning to his home in Douglas County in 1855. Gridley found the marker in a bush when he was doing his research in 1996.
"It was all knocked over." Gridley said. "Someone had just toppled the whole thing. It was inside a whole shrub and no one would even know it's thers."
Gridley and Katie Armitage,
another local historian,
helped restore the marker.
Eighteen white stones mark the graves of soldiers of the 13th Wisconsin Infantry who died in Lawrence between April and June of 1862. The men were on their way to Corinth, Mississippi, near the Battle of Shiloh, when they became sick with typhoid.
Quantrill's raid on Lawrence in 1863 killed about 200 men and boys and added 70 graves to the cemetery. When Oak Hill Cemetery opened less than five years later many of the graves were moved there. Only four graves of those killed in the raid remain in Pioneer Cemetery.
Ali the graves of people buried before 1880 remain in the cemetery and are scattered throughout the six acres. The graves of people with University ties are much more regulated, said Daryl Beene, senior vice president for property of the KU Endowment Association.
Any person buried at the cemetery must be cremated because of the limited space, Beene said. Each plot in the cemetery is two-feet by two-feet. The cemetery has 800 plots right now, but there is some room for expansion, he said.
Faculty and unclassified administrative KU employees who have worked for 15 years or more are eligible for burial.
Also eligible are chancellors, vice chancellors, deans, trustees of the endowment association and members of the board of directors of the University of Kansas Alumni Association. Spouses are allowed to be buried in the cemetery as well. Burial at the cemetery is free. Beene said.
After people who are eligible retire from the University, they are placed on a list to guarantee a plot in the cemetery, he said. Since 1960, about 330 people have been buried in the cemetery and 345 people are on the list to be buried in the cemetery.
Many people didn't consider it an option until former chancellor Deane Malott chose to be buried there. It has become more popular in recent years, he said.
"We don't have hometowns," Beene said. "A lot of people don't have roots, but they have a love for the University."

Williams signs top high school recruits
Weekend offers more to do than attend game
By Jessica Scott
jscott@kansan.com
Kansas writersporter
You can't blame Kansas coach Roy Williams for already looking forward to the 2003-2004 season, even though this season hasn't even begun.
On Wednesday — the first day of the early signing period — three of the country's top high school seniors announced their desire to play for Williams. Jeremy Case, Omar Wilkes and David Padgett all
Williams
Another top athlete, 6-foot-5 guard J.R. Giddens, will join the recruiting class but opted to sign next week at a school
began the process of becoming Jayhawks by signing their national letters of intent Wednesday afternoon.
"The biggest thing is that it makes you feel a little more comfortable," he said. "I probably do get a little emotional. In recruiting, when somebody decides to come to Kansas, they're putting their faith in you."
It's pretty easy to sum up how dismal this season has been for the Kansas football team.
Case, a 6-foot guard from McAlester (Okla.) High, is a pure shooter who is the son of a coach. Williams said Case, although he looked young, would fit into
assembly in his hometown of Oklahoma City. Williams, after thousands of miles
spent on the road recruiting, said knowing these four would come to Kansas eased his mind.
"You look at him right now, he's a nice looking kid, but you think he's about 13 years old," Williams said. "He's going to get bigger and stronger. He'll be very dedicated to improving his game throughout his career."
The 6-4 guard Wilkes, who visited the University for Late Night with Roy Williams, is expected to travel from his home town of Los Angeles to Lawrence
the college game.

For starters, the Jayhawks give up an average of 41.1 points per game, which ranks 114th in the nation out of 119 Division I teams. On the flip side, the 19.2 points per game that the offense has been producing is good for 100th in the nation. With those two statistics, plus the fact that our place-kicker has missed nine of his 14 field goal attempts on the year, a 2-9 overall record and a winless campaign in the conference is expected.
So if you really want to watch a sorry football program, tune into this game because it's about the only game this weekend that will make you feel better about Kansas football.
Greene is a Vernon Hills, Ill., junior in journalism.
Zach Dyer. junior quarterback, prepares to toss the ball on an option play in last year's game against Nebraska. Dyer was moved to safety this season but will return to the starting quarterback position tomorrow against Oklahoma State.
From looking at the stands out of the press box this fall, student attendance has been minimal, and why shouldn't it be? Sure, coach Mark Mangino says his kids play with a lot of heart and never give up, but who really cares when your in-state rival is beating you 30-0 at the end of the first quarter? That is what brings upon my proposal to all KU students: Do not go to Memorial Stadium tomorrow.
Here's a picture. Kevin Steele was brought into Waco to turn around a hapless program. He was fired a couple of weeks ago in his fourth season, and agreed to play the role of lame duck coach for the team's final two games of the year. Why would he do it when the final two games are against Texas and Oklahoma? Sure, the Bears beat the Jayhawks this season for their first Big 12 Conference victory since 1998, but it's guaranteed their weekend will be worse than Kansas'.
Stay home. Do homework. Clean your apartment. Finally, do your laundry. Heck, maybe even go visit your parents. Just don't waste your afternoon freezing your butt off at the concrete prison at 11th and Mississippi. With that said, here's a list of activities that would be more entertaining than tomorrow's game against Oklahoma State.
Kansan file photo
Well first, if you can't see any success on the gridiron, you can relive last year's Final Four run from a first-hand account. However, the real reason to read it is to learn the gripping stories about how Boschee farts when he stretches. As you can see, the book is an intellectual read.
1) Read Jeff Boschee's book.
3) Visit historic Baldwin City.
There are things in this movie that you will and won't see at Memorial Stadium. At the game, you won't be seeing anyone shooting fireworks out of his rear end or guys stuffing poultry in their underwear as gator-bait. The only thing that you can see at both venues is intense laughing from spectators, but it's all about whether you'd want to chuckle while wolfing down Junior Mints or Dippin' Dots.
2) See Jackass : The Movie.
4) Go to a sports bar and watch Baylor play Oklahoma.
Baldwin City has plenty to offer. You can start your weekend by checking out the Baker men's basketball team compete in the Baker classic tonight and tomorrow. Then you can swing by the childhood home of Kansan sportswriter Doyle Murphy. To finish it off, go and check out the famous "train to nowhere." I know that last time I checked, Mario Kinsey, Carl Nesmith and Zac Wegner were all on board.
Uncle to face nephew on field
By John Domoney
jdomoney@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
Tomorrow Jake Letourneau will close out his career against the Cowboys and his nephew.
"It might be the first time in history that an uncle plays his nephew in a college football game," the senior strong safety said.
The Concordia product has an older brother, David, who played football for Kansas State and earned a letter in 1982 as a defensive back.
David Letourneau's son, Josh, is a second-year freshman strong safety for the Cowboys, after taking a redshirt last season. Josh has played in four of Oklahoma State's nine games this season recording one tackle as a member of the special teams unit.
"Ive never seen him play in college," Letourneau said of his nephew from Plano, Texas. "I did see him play one or two times in high school."
Jake Letourneau said he and his nephew would talk on the phone and wish each other luck for tomorrow's game.
When Kansas (2-9 overall, 0-7 Big 12 Conference) takes the field against Oklahoma State (4-5, 2-3) at 1 p.m. tomorrow in Memorial Stadium it will be Letourneau's last chance to take the field as a lahawk.
Letourneau was recruited to Kansas by former coach Terry Allen as a quarterback after earning all-state honors during his senior season at Concordia High School.
This season Letourneau has 44 tackles and has started at strong safety in seven of the season's previous 11 games. Junior Zach Dyer has started at the strong safety spot in three of the last four games after he moved from quarterback.
Following the 1999 season, Letourneau made the transition to strong safety. He started all 11 games last season and led the secondary with 87 tackles. Last season against Colorado in Boulder, Colo., Letourneau made 16 tackles to go along with an interception.
Kansas coach Mark Mangino said on Wednesday that junior quarterback Bill Whittemore would not play tomorrow, and Dyer would start at quarterback. With Dyer moved back to quarterback,
Letourneau will likely start in his final collegiate game.
"Our seniors have weathered some storms over the years," Mangino said. "They have been resilient. I'm very proud of them. I'm impressed with them, that they still have great enthusiasm and great

love of playing the game here at KU despite the fact that their record is not the way they would like it to be."
Over the past four seasons, Kansas has a combined record of 14-31, but Letourneau said the seniors had an important role in the program.

Jayhawks look to end Cowboys' bowl quest
By Doyla Murphy
dmurphy@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
Along with heading toward disparate endzones on the field, the Cowboys' and Jayhawks' destinations for after the game are polar opposites.
Kansas and Oklahoma State will be going in different directions during and after their 1 p.m. meeting tomorrow.
Oklahoma State (4-5, 2-3 in the Big 12 Conference) has bowl game aspirations, while Kansas (2-9, 0-7) is headed back to the drawing board.
That doesn't mean the Jayhawks are ready to concede their last game of the season.
"They're trying to get to a bowl game," Kansas senior linebacker Greg Cole said at a press conference Tuesday. "I want to ruin it for them. I don't get to go to a bowl game. I'll try to stop their bowl hopes."
The only remaining hurdles for the Cowboys in their quest for bowl eligibility are tomorrow's game against the Jayhawks and home games against Baylor and then Oklahoma. The Cowboys need to win two of those three to reach six wins for the season — the magic number necessary to be considered for a postseason bowl appearance.
If Oklahoma State does succeed in getting past Kansas, the Cowboys will have accomplished a feat that has eluded them all season — win-

Looking for a new coach after Lowe's sudden departure, West's first call was to Brown.
The squad was selected by members of the College Sports Information Directors of America.
Kansan staff report
"I've reached the top level of television as a broadcaster for the NBA playoffs and enjoyed my time as a leader of coaching clinics, so a great new challenge is of interest to me," he said.
Brown was brought to Memphis by Jerry West, who became the team's president of basketball operations last year.
Grizzlies hire Hubie Brown
The Associated Press
West describes Brown, a former NBA Coach of the Year, as "one of the premier basketball minds in the business" and an outstanding teacher.
MEMPHIS. Tenn. — Hubie Brown wants the Memphis Grizzlies to get one thing clear right away. He expects hard work, all the time.
Brown gave up his TV broadcasting job to take over the Grizzlies because "it is the ultimate challenge."
"The first thing is we're going to work on discipline," Brown said Wednesday after his first practice with the team. "Either you play or you sit."
Brown, 69, was back at work as an NBA coach for the first time in 15 years. He replaces Sidney Lowe, who resigned Tuesday after a 0-8 start left Memphis as the league's only winless team.
"When Jerry West calls, you listen up. There's not going to be any massaging. There's not going to be
any blowing smoke." Brown said at a news conference with West and Michael Heisley, the team's majority owner.
Brown said the Grizzlies must develop better chemistry, tougher defense and a personal style.
"You give me any team worth a grain of salt and they have a distinct style of play," he said. "I don't care what sport it is."
Brown, a former coach of the New York Knicks and Atlanta Hawks, said the Grizzlies need "two teams of five guys that will respect one another."
"They will be unselfish with one another, and they'll pay the price and give the effort," he said.
Brown also intends to respond to criticism that the Grizzlies are sluggish and unmotivated, particularly on defense.
"The defense must make a major transition," he said. "We know that the team ranks 29th in three or four critical defensive areas. Now that's not going to change overnight. What has to happen here is days of practice, days of drills, days of the staff working with people and getting the right people in the right places."
He said hard work and discipline can turn the Grizzlies around if the "talent base" is broad enough.
"Is the talent base enough to do that?" he said "Well, we'll see."

Rams work to overcome rough start, see postseason
ST. LOUIS — When the St. Louis Rams fell into that 0-5 hole, some players had a hard time believing they would ever dig their way out.
One game at a time, they erased that notion with impressive victories over the Raiders and Seahawks, a solid win at Arizona and a stirring fourth-quarter comeback over the Chargers.
Now, with a victory over the Chicago Bears (2-7) on Monday night, the defending NFC champions can finally make it back to the break-even point.
The Rams (4-5) hunger to be the first team in NFL history to make the playoffs after an 0-5 start.
With a victory over the Bears they can follow last year's Redskins as the only teams to win their next five after losing the first five.
"It seems like we've been winning for so long, and we're still not, 500," quarterback Marc Bulger said. "But we felt when we were 0-5 that we could turn it around. If there was one team in the NFL that could do it, it was us."
Coach Mike Martz credits veteran leadership that concentrated on the task at hand instead of becoming overwhelmed by the big picture in getting the Rams to this point.
"We've got an awful long ways to go before you realistically start talking about postseason play."

Baylor's a big game for us."
The Jayhawks are 4-12 all-time against the Bears (9-17 overall, 2-13 Big 12 Conference), but three of those wins occurred under coach Ray Bechard's tenure. One of those victories came on Oct. 12, when Kansas (17-7, 8-7) swept Baylor in three games in Lawrence.
Prior to Wednesday's match at home against Texas Tech, Baylor had been swept in three games by conference opponents in eight straight matches. The Bears won game one but lost the match to the Red Raiders 3-1.
Baylor has been playing without reigning first-team all-Big 12 junior outside hitter Stevie Nicholas, who is out for the rest of the season with a torn ligament in her right knee. She is one of four key Baylor players who are out for the rest of the year with injuries.

team finished 0-16 in the Big 12 Conference and 5-25 overall.
Kansas coach Marian Washington said approaching each game with the right attitude would be a key for the latest edition of the Jayhawks.
"With each game they'll get more confident and find their own way of preparing." Washington told reporters after Wednesday's game. "And that's going to be really important for them."
The most obvious difference this season will be the players. Freshmen Tamara Ransburg and Crystal Kemp both started against the Vikings, and a third

Sophomore guard and Lawrence Free State graduate Katie Rhodes started 24 games during her freshman year with the Tigers last season.
familiar with the local prep scene.
Anyone who made the 25 minute drive south on Highway 59 to an Ottawa High School basketball game last season could not avoid hearing the name Lindsey Dieterich.
The Fort Hays freshman guard scored 1,287 points in her high school career and averaged 17.7 points per game her senior year.
She also participated in volleyball and track.
Kansas junior guard, Leila Menguc said she knew about the speed and athleticism of the Fort Havs guards.
"They're a really fast club," she said. "Especially out on the perimeter."
"We can run the floor forever," she said. "It seems that way, anyway."
Megau said the Jayhawks had the athletes to cover the Fort Hays backcourt.

next week to watch a game. He, like Case, has a baby face according to Williams, but shows leadership potential.
"Every time I watch him play his team does a lot better when he's in the game," Williams said. "He provides a great deal of stability and leadership to what's going on. He's all about winning."
Kansas guard Jeff Hawkins.
who already has seen the recruits play, said Wilkes' game was the complete package.
"I really like his game," Hawkins said. "Omar is a really good player. He can drive, pass just about do anything."
Padgett the recruit with the biggest shoes to fill next year hails from Nevada and will use his 6-foot-11 frame in the lane after the departure of senior Nick Collison. With skillful hands, a soft touch and great running ability, Williams said Padgett, another coach's son.
would immediately see considerable playing time.
"I don't think he can tell you that anybody else wanted him more than I did," Williams said. "He'll be asked to be played major minutes for us a freshman. He knows he has to earn that but there's a tremendous opportunity here. He'll be very successful."
After the announcement next week by Giddens, the 2002 recruiting class most likely will be completed. Kansas has one scholarship
remaining. But Williams said that unless he stumbles upon a player he cannot live without, he would rather save the scholarship for the next round of recruitment. He said his devotion to these three athletes had paid off.
"With four youngsters, we feel like it is a very solid class," Williams said. "I invest a lot; it's not a fly-by-night thing. When I say I invest, I mean everything I have."

ning a game on the road. The Cowboys' last victory away from Lewis Field was nearly a year ago. They won at Oklahoma on Nov.24, 2001.
This season, the Cowboys have notched notable victories against Nebraska (24-21) and Texas A&M (28-23.)
The Cornhuskers and the Aggies crushed the Jayhawks by a combined score of 92-29.
"We've got a one-game season, and that's what we're focused on."
But the Kansas players won't be thinking about any of that, Kansas coach Mark Mangino

told reporters. The Jayhawks will be trying to send their seniors home from Memorial Stadium as winners.
"We've got a one-game season and that's what we're focused on," he said. "And we're focused on those guys being able to give their very best shot against an Oklahoma State team that's developing into a fine
football team."
Mangino was impressed with the ability of the Cowboys' defense to move, he said. Safeties Chris Massey, a senior, and Craig Elbert, a junior, will lead the team's active defense. Massey is the team's second leading tackler with 44. Elbert recorded eight stops and three pass deflections against Texas A&M.
"Their safeties are as good a safety combination you'll see in the Big 12 with Massey and Craig," Mangino said. "They're cover guys. They're aggressive tacklers. They're tough customers."

Violence leads to fan control
OXFORD, Ohio — A postgame confrontation that ended with a Miami University assistant coach handcuffed and a Marshall fan hospitalized is prompting calls for a crackdown on football fans swarming the field.
Fans streamed onto the field Tuesday night after Marshall's last-second, 36-34 victory over the RedHawks in Huntington, W.Va. A Miami assistant coach was arrested for allegedly knocking down a fan, who was treated
and released from a hospital.
Defensive coordinator Jon Waufford was suspended with pay Wednesday, pending an investigation. Linebackers coach Taver Johnson also was suspended with pay.
Schools try to prevent fans from tearing down goal posts after victories, a tradition that has resulted in injuries. They need to go a step further and make sure fans can't get onto the field at all. Miami interim athletic director Steve Snyder said Wednesday.
"It's time now," Snyder said. "Now we're having to worry
about protecting people rather than goal posts."
On-field security in sports has become a bigger concern since two fans assaulted Kansas City first base coach Tom Gamboa at Comiskey Park during a game in September.
Miami coach Terry Hoeppner brought two university police officers for protection.
Hoeppner apologized for the post-game problems but predicted that Wauford will be exonerated because of the conditions on the field after the game.

'Harry Potter' sequel opens today
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Harry Potter's got his work cut out for him to match his box-office grades from freshman year.
The boy wizard's second film adventure, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, opens today on even more screens in more theaters than Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone did a year ago.
But it may face a bit of a sophomore jinx. Distributor Warner Bros., concedes Chamber of Secrets may have a hard time equaling the $90.3 million opening weekend of Sorcerer's Stone.
tion for the opening of the first one that it would really be extremely difficult and unrealistic that we could open to a number quite that large," said Dan Fellman, Warner's head of domestic distribution.
Still, as they did for Sorcerer's Stone, night owls were expected to line up Thursday night for the earliest screenings, a minute after midnight.
"People just want to be part of that craze," said Art Levitt, chief executive of Fandango Inc., which sells movie tickets online. "They want to be the first ones in to see it."
Adapted from the second of J.K. Rowling's best-selling books.
Chamber of Secrets follows Harry through year two at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where he has a rematch with the evil conjurer who killed his parents.
Chamber of Secrets will open in a record 3,682 theaters,10 more than "Sorcerer's Stone," and play on a record 8.500 screens, up about 400 over the first film.
While it may not break cash records, early reviews generally are calling Chamber of Secrets a better movie than Sorcerer's Stone. That's a sign the new film may have more staying power and eventually exceed the $317.6 million total taken in by Sorcerer's Stone.

Commentary by Doyle Murphy
Raising the Kick the Kansan bar
Every week in this column. I run my mouth about college football, trash-talking panelists and basically anything that strikes me as funny.
Lately, though, it has occurred to me that with all that is going on in the world today, maybe I am wasting the platform *Kiek the Kansan* affords me. Sure it is fun to relate humorous anecdotes about nonsense and sports, but I think it's time to pursue less trivial topics.
Yes, this week I will talk about something much more serious; the severity of the beating I gave most of this week's entries. These poor students were lured into the contest with innocent expectations of a good time and the possibility of free Mojo's and a T-shirt
I'm just glad I don't have to see their pathetic faces when the cold reality of the panelists' records punches them in the throat this morning.
Can you imagine the humiliation they must have felt when they discovered that a measly 8-3 record is no longer good enough? That's right, it was 10-1 or go home this week — unless you're a certain Kansan football writer, who slipped in at 9-2.
Let's be clear. 10-1 is not perfect, as my colleague John Domoney likes to say. Domoney should know. He is the only person to post an 11-0 record this season.
"It's no 11-0," he recently told me about my 10-1 entry. "It takes something special to get 11-0."
Good point, Johnny. And let me go on record as the first to say that I neither believed nor started the rumor your girlfriend picked your games that week. I believe in you, buddy.
OK then, let's move on.
Jonathan Powell, Dallas sophomore, is a Kick the Kansan virgin. With a 10-1 record, this kid has definite talent. It should serve him well in whatever field he chooses — be it bookie, sports columnist or, yeah, that's about it.
Either way, Powell is pumped.
Either way, Powen is pumped. "I'm excited," he said. "I'm ready to get some food."
This week the Kansan invites its readers to take on Big 12 football reporter Dovia Murphy to pick the winners of 11 college football games. Anyone who defeats Murphy will be put in a drawing in which five participants will be chosen for weekly prizes including in a T-shirt and gift certificate. The winners will also be included in the next week's picks in the Kansan. All entries will be included in the grand prize drawing at the end of the of the season.
Look for entry forms in the Kansan sports section every Thursday and Friday. All entries must be returned to the Kansan business office by 3 p.m. on Friday.

I will help you with that. Let me re-read the image carefully.
The image shows a group of people, likely a band or a dance group, in front of a dark background. They are raising their hands and appear to be in a celebratory or energetic mood. The crowd is composed of several individuals, including two men and a woman, all smiling and looking towards the camera. The woman has long hair and is wearing a black top with white sleeves. The man on the left is wearing a dark shirt and jeans. The other man is wearing a striped shirt and trousers. The woman on the right is wearing a light-colored dress with a floral pattern. The overall atmosphere seems lively and jovial.
Based on this description, the text content could be a song title, an event description, or a promotional graphic. It might also be a description of the band's style or a scene from a performance. However, without additional context, it's impossible to determine the exact content.

Kansas fans say Lawrence is not proud football town
By Kelly McNearney
kmcnearney@kansan.com
Kansan staff @kansan
Coca-Cola came to Lawrence Saturday as part of its Search for Football Town USA Tour. Symbolic of their dedication to Kansas football, fans gave Coke a clear message — keep searching.
The crowd at the event was comparable to that of a football game—sparse.
Most fans failed to come up with a reason.
Members of a marketing team working for Coke set up a stage in the southeast corner of Memorial Stadium. They marked the location with a huge Coke bottle blowup. Fans had the opportunity to go on stage and videotape a 15-second message saying why Lawrence was Football Town U3A.
One fan talked about Lawrence being a basketball town in her message. Another fan brought his dog on stage, and it howled along as he sang the alma mater.
Kristen Hines, Kansas City, Kan., freshman, and Kelly Steinle, Cuba freshman, recorded a message together. They said Lawrence was Football Town USA because of the hot rowers who sold programs. They were talking about themselves.
"We had to give props to our rowing team," Steinle said. "We're basketball town USA, not football."
The tour began Sept. 6 in Atlanta and will visit almost 50 stadiums before it ends Dec. 23 in Tampa Bay, Fla. It has visited professional, college and high school stadiums.
Tony Kirwin, tour coordinator, said the best turnouts came from towns with great football traditions.
Coca-Cola posted every recorded message on the Internet at www.footballtownusa.com so fans can see their own messages and vote on others. Selected entries will be aired in Coke commercials early next year.
"America has many different kinds of local football pride and traditions, as it does football teams," said Beatriz Perez, vice president of sport marketing for Coke's North American Division, in a statement. "We're touring the country to uncover and celebrate those local connections, and discover exactly what makes up the definitive Football Town USA."

First H.O.P.E. award ever presented to a math professor

Although the score of Saturday's football game was dismal, at least one Jayhawk was doing a victory dance at Memorial Stadium.
Bozenna Pasik-Duncan, professor of mathematics, received the H.O.P.E. Award, or Honor for an Outstanding Progressive Educator. It was the first time a mathematics professor had received the award, she said.
during the Kansas-Oklahoma State football game.
The award was presented at halftime
"I was hugging, jumping and screaming, and I forgot about the provost," Pasik-Duncan said. "He touched me and said, 'Bozenna, I need to give you the award.'"
Pasik-Duncan has taught at the University since 1984, after teaching in Poland for 13 years. She has won several teaching awards. She said she had thought about returning to Poland to teach, but the H.O.P.E. award changed her mind, she said.
Pasik-Duncan said that relating mathematics to real life was her passion and that she tried to help students learn that
"They've passed the message to me that I need to be here," she said of the students who voted for her.

Tony Vyhanek said he thought his Disney World internship would teach him leadership skills and allow him to make connections at a large, wellrespected corporation.
Instead, he spent four months selling egg rolls at Disney-MGM Studios for $6 an hour, making no professional connections.
"It was disappointing from an internship standpoint," said Vyhanek, an Overland Park senior studying business.
Vyhanek worked at Disney World in Orlando, Fla., during Spring 2001 as part of the Walt Disney World College Program.
Some students enjoyed their Disney internship. They said they met people from around the world, received free admission to the Disney parks and learned about the hospitality industry.
Others, like Vyhanek, expected more. These students said the pay was too low, the work was boring and they didn't get an opportunity to shadow Disney employees.
The Walt Disney World College Program, which began in 1980, offers college students "a unique living, learning and earning experience" working at Disney World. The program provides paid positions at theme parks and resorts and offers educational classes and seminars for about 6,000 students each year.

"This is the first time in a long time I've seen people looking like something really made them happy," the Stillwell junior said.
The Lied Center became engulfed in a world of twirling strobe lights and smoke during the Beck and The Flaming Lips concert Saturday night.
The audience was treated to a few intimate acoustic solos by Beck before The Flaming Lips joined as the backup band.
The Beck/The Flaming Lips show filled Adrienne Banks with genuine delight.
During a solo, Beck picked up a large bra someone had thrown onstage.
"This is an industrial strength bra,"
"This is the first time in a long time I've seen people looking like something really made them happy."

he joked. "I don't think it would fit me."
When the two acts began playing together, Beck demonstrated some of his signature dance moves. At one point he danced on a platform, illuminated so that his shadow was larger than life.
Songs such as "Tropicalia," "Loser" and "Devil's Haircut" were played in addition to songs from Beck's newest album Sea Change.
Only one outfit change took place, when Beck emerged in a striped glowing suit for the song "Devil's Haircut."
The Flaming Lips' lead singer Wayne Coyne and Beck performed a duet of the song "Who Loves the Sun," from the band The Velvet Underground.
Thais Brandao, Brazil senior, said she had enjoyed the duet and was amazed by the way Beck performed his old songs with the new.
Before the show began, there was a mellow mood as the crowd waited and bounced around large gumball colored balloons as if they were beach balls. But when The Flaming Lips took the stage, a happy chaos began.
The Flaming Lips played songs
Their lead singer Coyne swung a cord with a light attached over his head like he was a cowboy with a lasso. With a contagious grin that stretched ear to ear, he beamed at the audience and joyfully shook his fists in the air, as if he had won an Olympic medal.

"This is deep emotional stuff," he said. "It's more about feeling good."
He also said he enjoyed The Flaming Lips as they aged.

Father allowed separate evaluation for competency
LEAVENWORTH —A judge has delayed ruling on whether a man is competent to stand trial on charges that he stabbed his son and left him along an interstate, where he died after being hit by a car.
Leavenworth County Judge Frederick Stewart on Friday agreed to allow the defense team to conduct a separate evaluation of Raymond Boothe, 34, who is charged with first-degree murder in the Aug. 27 death of his 11-year-old son, Raymond Levi Boothe.
Deborah Owens, victim/witness coordinator for the Leavenworth County attorney's office, said psychiatrists at Larned State Hospital had found Boothe competent to stand trial.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Gene Porter called Robert R. Courtney "cold-blooded," "heinous" and "sadistically cruel" in a court filing that laid out arguments for a long prison term. Courtney, 50, is scheduled for sentencing Dec. 5.
After he was charged, Courtney told the FBI that greed motivated him to dilute the drugs. But when he pleaded guilty he told the judge he had searched his soul and could find "no rational explanation."
In his plea agreement, Courtney admitted diluting the expensive cancer drugs for 34 patients on 158 separate occasions.
Journalist finds Hussein's unchecked e-mail inbox
DURHAM, N.H. — Even Saddam Hussein gets spam.
He also gets e-mail purporting to be from U.S, companies offering business deals, and threats, according to a journalist who figured out a way into an Iraqi government e-mail account and downloaded more than 1,000 messages.
Brian McWilliams, a free-lancer who specializes in Internet security, said he hardly needed high-level hacking skills to snoop through e-mail addressed to Saddam.
While doing research late one October night, the Durham resident clicked on the official Iraqi government Web site, http://www.uruklink.net/Iran
The site, which worked last week but was offline yesterday, included links that allow visitors to send e-mail to Saddam and allowed users of the government-controlled site, which is hosted in Dubai, to check their own accounts.
That mail-checking feature caught McWilliams' eye. On a whim, he typed in the address for Saddam, "press@uruklink.net," using "press" for president, and tried "press" again as a possible password.

U.N. weapons inspector assembles team for Iraq
LARNACA, Cyprus — The chief U.N. weapons inspector landed in Cyprus yesterday to assemble his team for a return to Baghdad and said the "question of war and peace" awaited an answer from Saddam Hussein.
President Bush has warned that Saddam faces military action if he fails to cooperate fully with the inspectors, who will fly to Iraq today. Saddam faces a three-week deadline to reveal weapons of mass destruction or provide convincing evidence he no longer has any.
Chief U.N. inspector Hans Blix and Mohamed ElBaradei, overseeing the International Atomic Energy Agency's search for nuclear arms, flew to Cyprus from Vienna, Austria. They joined about two dozen other members of the advance team assembling here to prepare for a resumption of inspections after a nearly four-year absence.

City can help tenants get repairs Womyn debate male participation

Kansan staff writer
Fertilizer poisoned Josh Farrar's relationship with his landlord.
A basement floor covered in fertilizer, windows without locks and puddles of mud awaited the Sterling. Mass., graduate student when he moved in this fall.
"Our washer and dryer were sitting in a pile of mud and water," Farrar said.
After repeated requests to his landlord to fix the problems, Farrar and his roommates took it a
"We said, 'If you don't get this fixed, we will take legal action,'" Farrar said.
When the landlord didn't respond, the residents turned to city inspectors for help. After inspectors finished evaluating the home, they delivered a two-page list of problems to the landlord, Farrarsaid. Thelistincluded Farrar's complaints as well as other minor violations.
Farrar's landlord didn't waste time correcting the violations after the city stepped in, he said.
City landlords usually fix problems once the city gets involved.
said Barry Walthall, Lawrence code enforcement manager.
The code enforcement division gives landlords a set period of time to make repairs before the city declares the dwelling uninhabitable. The time period varies based on the difficulty of the repair, Walthall said. Farrar's landlord was given 10 days.
Walthall said landlords could be taken to court if they did not cooperate with the city.
He said he thought the problem of landlords not making repairs until the city had stepped in was typical of other cities. The code enforcement division
reported 43 complaints from tenants from May through October
City inspectors' duties involve checking buildings whenever the city issues a building permit, Walthall said. But another duty of the code enforcement division is to help tenants get landlords to make repairs.
The city gets called to make landlords correct things such as sewage backup, water leaks, lack of heat and even holes in the floor, Walthall said.
"That's a routine part of our operations," Walthall said.

Author touts history education
By Caleb Mothwehr
cnothwehr@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Ournation is raising a generation of historically illiterate Americans, two-time Pulitzer prize-winning author David McCullough told an audience at the Lied Center yesterday.
A strategy for solving this problem is rethinking the way we train our teachers and talking about history with our children, McCullough said.
"Too many teachers come out of college with a degree in education knowing no subject," he said. McCullough was the last of three speakers in the Dole Institute of Politics' Presidential Lecture series.
The decorated historian offered detailed anecdotes about past American presidents — specifically John Adams and Harry
Truman, about whom he wrote his award-winning biographies.
"Lyndon Johnson ate soup louder than any man who ever lived," he said.
Referring to our nation as the "greatest experiment of all time," McCullough told a crowd of about 1,850 people that our nation had been through harder times before Sept. 11.
"The American Revolution was a far more difficult time," he said. "Anyone who signed the Declaration of Independence was putting his head in a noose."
To demonstrate crisis management throughout history, McCullough read excerpts of his latest biography. John Adams. He also paid tribute to George Washington, whom he said he considered the greatest American who had ever lived.
"George Washington held this country together like no
other person could have," he said.
In an earlier interview yesterday, McCullough stressed the importance of a liberal arts education by giving examples of corporations, such as General Motors, that are hiring college graduates with degrees in English.
"They want a fully educated person, someone who knows how to write a letter or give a speech. I am an ardent believer in the humanities," he said.
McCullough said Adams' writings revealed him to be in some ways similar to President George W. Bush.
"He calls things as he sees them in a way that's very in tune with our own president's temperament and outlook," he said.
KU students who attended the speech were appreciative of McCullough's message and

speaking style.
"It was very insightful," said Adam Steele, Roswell, Ga., senior. "Besides his knowledge of past presidents, he raised concerns about historical education in the U.S."

About 20 people gathered Saturday at the Lawrence Public Library to debate which portions of April's 'Womyn Take Back the Night' should include men. Participants at the meeting said answering such questions in advance would help make the event effective for the women who planned to attend.
Lea Carland, Lawrence senior said women survivors of violence and rape did not traditionally have a social space in which to discuss their experiences.
Carland said men should show their support during the 'Womyn Take Back the Night' march through downtown Lawrence in April. But, she said, the Survivor's Circle that night—which offers women the opportunity to safely discuss traumatizing experiences with rape and violence—should only include people who identify themselves as women.
"At some point, you have to say this is our time," Carland said. "I would not feel safe speaking about my experiences with men."
Last year, about 200 women attended 'Womyn Take Back the Night,' which included the Survivor's Circle and the march through downtown.
"We want to be as inclusive as possible," said Beth Peterson, Kansas City, Mo., senior. "But we also don't want to compromise our principles."
Organizers for Saturday's meeting also read from a stack of letters expressing opinions about
the inclusion of men that poured into the 'Womyn's Empowerment Action Coalition,' a campus-based student group sponsoring the April event.
"It's a women's-only sacred space that should stay that way," said one letter referring to the Survivor's Circle.
"I'm personally interested in a feminism that includes all genders." said another.
Opinions expressed by attendees of the meeting varied as widely as those expressed in the letters, particularly regarding the Survivor's Circle.
Some said they would prefer that men attend to hear the experiences and to show that men care about the issues. Others said the event was one of the few opportunities women had to meet and discuss experiences.
"The reason why it's been divided is because of notions of safe space," said Sally Puleo, a 2001 graduate. "There are very few spaces in our culture for women."
Carland said while the march would target the community, the Survivor's Circle was more of a forum for victims.
"Education is not the focus of the Circle," she said. "It's for women to tell their stories."
The meeting was held for organizers to hear feedback from the community. A final decision for the format of 'Womyn Take Back the Night' was not established Saturday. A decision will be posted soon on WEAC's list serve which can be reached at KU_WEAC@hotmail.com.

PERSPECTIVES
In just six steps you can fight off the scary stress monster
He's lurking just around the corner. He's waiting for the right moment to grab hold of
COMMENTARY
Each day you get closer to finals, he gets closer to you. He is the big, ugly, monster known as stress.
Throughout most of the semester he just creeps in the shadows. Every once in a while he jumps out to give you a scare, but he's relatively harmless.
Now, with finals approaching and as tests, papers and projects are part of your immediate future, he scares you more and more frequently. Until one day you suddenly can't breathe.
Before you stands this monster, his hands wrapped around you.
COMMENTARY
Each year as finals approach, students become bogged down by the workload that is almost always present at the end of each semester.
Slowly the air that once filled your body escapes you. He is smothering you. You struggle to give him what he wants, your biology test, your English paper and your advertising project but the pressure is too great.
But, thanks to information from the University of Learning Center at the University of North Dakota and
You don't think you are going to survive.
Mandy German
opinton@kansan.com
www.careersindia.com, a Web site devoted to address decision-making issues among students, there are a few tips on how to beat the monster.
1. Plan ahead. I know this is like pulling teeth for procrastinators like myself, but in the end, planning how you are going to study before finals, can prove beneficial.
Think of it as having an attack plan for the monster.
2. Act normal. Stick to your daily routine as best you can, this will help reduce fatigue and keep the monster away.
You are already a little crazy; so don't do anything to add it.
3. Hit something. Tension is normal when the monster is around. Think of ways to release your tension, hit your pillow, hit a baseball or hit on someone (figuratively not literally) whatever works for you.
Just remember some tension is good.
so don't release all of it.
4. Eat. Contrary to myth, caffeine is not a food group. You're too busy right? Not one time in my life have I ever been too busy to eat.
Eat well if you can, four Cokes, a package of peanut butter crackers and a Snickers is not exactly a good meal.
5. Dream of beaches and sunsets, or at least get some sleep. Sleeping actually helps us process information and frankly, it's just nice.
I can't promise you great dreams,but I can promise you will be better off than studying all night.
6. Shut up. Don't talk about the exams, papers or projects while you are taking a break from studying.
Yes, I know the monster is squeezing you, but talking about it just reminds you of fit and all the things you still have to do.
The most important thing to remember is that you will survive.
If you really want to beat the monster all you have to do is have a little faith and relax.
If you take a deep breath and let your mind chill out, the monster's grip won't seem so tight and before you know it he will just be lurking in the shadows again.

"We all loved the program and we all wanted to stay involved with Disney at KU." Griffith said.
LIFE LIFE LIFE
But not all participants found the experience magical.
Beth Ann Allison, a sophomore at Emporia State University, participated in the program in Spring 2001 and went home after two months.
She said she lived in a three-bedroom apartment with five girls whom she didn't like and worked as a merchandise hostess on Main Street at the Magic Kingdom.
She said she was promised 40 hours a week at her job but worked only 25 to 30 hours. For Allison and other students, it was tough to pay for groceries, gas and rent.
"You spend all the money you make on food and Disney souvenirs," said Emilie Norvell, a junior at Murray State University in Murray, Ky. "So it's like Disney gets all its money back."
Allison said she didn't have much spending money and could only go out one night a week, when admission was free at Pleasure Island for "cast members," or employees.
She also didn't like her job selling glass, art and animation
"It was the most mindnumbing job I've ever had, but I had so much fun down there. The work stinks, but the tradeoff is worth it."

sketches, or cells. Allison said she was often the only worker at the store and knew nothing about the art. She said she wasn't qualified to answer shopper's questions.
Allison asked her managers more than once if she could switch jobs, but they would not let her.
A Disney World employment assistant said interns were not allowed to switch jobs once they began working because they already had been told three times what their jobs would be.
"The recruiter tells you, they tell you in the interview, and in your acceptance letter," said Michelle, who would not give her last name. "Here at Disney, we're a first-name company. We don't give our last names out."
Disney surveys interns to get feedback but doesn't disclose the results, Michelle said.
Jeff Tasset is a Disney college recruiter and has recruited at KU for three years. During his September presentation, he said interns were guaranteed 30 to 45 hours of work per week.
Interns live in apartment complexes provided by the company and their rent, which ranges from $67 to $79 per person per week, is automatically deducted from their paychecks, he said.
Tasset did not respond to subsequent calls or e-mails.
Common student jobs — or "roles," as Disney calls them include working in quick-service food and beverage; full-service food and beverage; merchandise; operations, which includes attractions, park greeters and
parking; custodial; lifeguarding and hospitality. The pay is $6 an hour.
There is no set minimum wage in Florida, but $6 an hour is less than the minimum wage in eight states, according to U.S. Department of Labor statistics.
Norvell worked in quick-service food and beverage at Disney-MGM Studios during Spring 2001.
"I worked selling ice cream at 'The Dip Cart,' also known as 'Hell on Earth,'" she said. "They made it sound so glamorous, but it was not what it seemed."
The costume was not the worst part for Norvell. As a dance minor, she wanted to shadow Disney dancers.
Norvell said she worked long hours in the sun, wearing an
apron and hot polyester pants.
"They told me I would be able to shadow and make connections, so I tried several times to shadow Beauty and the Beast dancers," Norvell said. "But I asked at least three people for the chance to shadow, and I was never able to."
Whether interns have the opportunity to shadow depends largely on their individual managers, said Disney World employee Cameron Meier.
"It really is the luck of the

draw." Meier said.
Kendra Merino, Disney college recruiting coordinator, said recruiters stopped telling students a year ago that they would be able to shadow employees.
"Now we tell them that they can 'network' with employees," she said. "We have networking events for students to meet people from different areas of Disney."
She said if students wanted to network with employees, it was their responsibility to take the initiative.
Brian Edwards said he was never able to shadow Disney employees during his internship. He said he asked three or four times to shadow someone in the business or the marketing department, but it never happened.
"It was just a sales pitch," said Edwards, a junior studying finance at the University of Central Florida in Orlando.
Edwards worked as a lifeguard at the Yacht Club Resort and the Beach Club Resort from May 2001 until January 2002.
"As interns, we were like the bottom of the food chain there," he said.
"I hated the work experience," Edwards said. "It was like exploited labor."
He said he was frustrated with 10-hour shifts, working holidays and not having scheduling input.
Brea Baumann said the internship was not the best job she ever had, but it was fun.
She worked as a lifeguard at the
Grand Floridian Resort & Spa from August 2001 until January 2002.
"It it was the most mind-numbing job I've ever had," said Baumann, a Clearwater senior studying business at KU, "but I had so much fun down there. The work stinks, but the tradeoff is worth it."
She said it was a good experience to learn about herself and to realize she could live on her own.
Meier, the Disney World employee, participated in the college program in 1992. He enjoyed the program so much that he did the internship three times and went on to be full-time, working as an attractions coordinator for seven years.
"I would recommend the internship to people who love Disney and want a fun experience," said Meier, a KU graduate. "I wouldn't recommend it to people who want to make a lot of money."
What he made in the early 1990s was not much different from the $6 an hour interns receive today, he said.
"People have complained about the intern pay not increasing more throughout the years," Meiers said.
KU career coordinator Gail Rooney said potential employers probably considered the Disney internship to be valuable work experience, especially employers looking to hire students for sales, customer service and management.
But she did warn that students interested in the internship should understand exactly what they would be doing at Disney.
"You need to look realistically at the program and figure out if it's a good match for you," Rooney said.
Edwards said he had a different view of Disney after working there as a lifeguard.
"Being a Disney employee definitely ruined the magic," he said.

El Al airline security guards halt hijacker on flight to Istanbul
ISTANBUL, Turkey — Security guards on Israel's national airline El Al overpowered a man who tried to hijack a flight from Tel Aviv to Istanbul yesterday.
None of the 170 passengers on board the Boeing 757 were harmed and the plane landed safely, said Oktay Cakirlar, an official at Istanbul's Ataturk International Airport.
The semi-official Anatolia news agency identified the hijacker as Tawfiq Fukra, a 23-year-old Arab with an Israeli passport.
Cakirlar said El Al Flight 581 sent out a hijacking signal as it approached Istanbul but the suspect was overcome.
"No one was injured," Cakirlar told The Associated Press. "The terrorist is in custody at the police station at the airport."
Turkey's private CNN-Turk and NTV televisions quoted police sources as saying the alleged hijacker was an Israeli Arab and was armed with a knife.
Television reports said the man was overpowered by two Israeli security guards aboard the plane.
He reportedly first threatened a flight attendant with a knife and tried to approach the cockpit but he was overpowered by two security guards.
"We heard people saying there was fighting and half a minute later it became clear that from row five or six a man ran amok toward the pilot's cabin, attacked a stewardess and tried to enter the cockpit." Menachen Binet, an Israeli passenger on the plane, told Israel army radio. "We saw a stewardess running like crazy from the front of the place to the business section. She was terrified."
Security guards "threw him to the floor with his legs spread and his face to the floor. The passengers were hysterical but the flight attendants were very cool, they calmed us down," he said.
At the airport, passengers could be seen going through passport control and security checks, where they were frisked.
El Al is widely regarded as world's most protected airline.
but also one of the most threatened. From the late 1960s into the 1980s, El Al planes and passengers were subjected to shooting attacks, hijacking and bombing attempts.
El Al's formidable security includes armed guards at checkin, on-board marshals and extensive searches of luggage. Passengers are told to arrive three hours ahead of flights to allow enough time for the security checks.

"She's so excited that you can't help but be excited," Feldt said. "She just does whatever we need."
Pasik-Duncan said she wanted to thank the class of 2003 from the bottom of her heart for making her "the happiest person in the world."
"I cannot find English words to express my feelings, but now I cannot even find Polish words to express my feelings," she said. "I will be even a better teacher now."
The graduating class of 1959 created the H.O.P.E Award program. Pasik-Duncan is the 45th recipient of the award.
Seniors voted Nov.7 to narrow the field of 17 nominees to seven finalists, whom senior class officers and the senior advisory board interviewed last Monday in order to select a winner.
The finalists for the award were Kerry Benson, lecturer in journalism; Malcolm Gibson, assistant professor of journalism and general manager of The University Daily Kansas; Stephen Ilardi, assistant professor of psychology; Thomas Lewin, associate professor of history; Rick Snyder, professor of psychology; and Nona Tollefson, professor of education.

Fourth suspect arrested in teenager's murder
The Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO—A fourth suspect was arrested in the slaying of a transgender youth who was strangled at a party after suspects discovered the cross-dressing teen was a boy, police said yesterday.
Jason Cazares, 22, was arrested Saturday on suspicion of murder over his alleged role in the killing of Eddie "Gwen" Araujo, said Newark Police Lt. Tom Milner. He was being held without bail.
He declined comment on Cazares's suspected role in the crime.
Last month, another suspect
led authorities to a shallow grave 150 miles east of San Francisco in the Sierra foothills two weeks after the Oct.3 party.
The 17-year-old was found buried — wrist and ankles bound — in the miniskirt he was last seen wearing while going by the name "Lida."
Witnesses told police Araujo was beaten, dragged half-conscious into a garage and strangled with a rope, according to court documents.
Three others have also been arrested and charged. Jaron Nabors, 19, pleaded innocent; Jose Antonio Merel and Michael William Magidson, both 22, have not yet entered pleas.

Josh Fields passed for five touchdowns, completed 11 of 19 passes and threw for 221 yards. And that was just in the first half.

After finishing with a 2-10 record in his first season at the helm of a college football team, it might seem logical for Kansas coach Mark Mangino to take a couple days off before he looks for ways to improve his program.
But after Saturday's 55-20 loss to Oklahoma State, Mangino told reporters he would not take a vacation
until late February.
"For us the season ends kind of early, but that's okay," Mangino said. "We want to turn that into a positive by getting out on the recruiting trail and getting some work done in that area."
One of the positions that Mangino is likely to focus on in recruiting is defensive back. Cowboy quarterback Josh Fields threw a school record five touchdown passes in the first half. Fields tacked on another touchdown pass late in the third quarter to finish with six touchdowns on
17 of 27 passing for 354 yards.
Three of those touchdowns went to wide receiver Rashaun Woods who had seven catches for 171 yards.
Woods, who stands 6 foot 2 inches, continually used his size to his advantage against smaller Jayhawk defensive backs Bobby Birihiray, 6 foot, and Remuise Johnson, 5 foot 8 inches.
"At times it looked like playground plays," Mangino said. "We just made it

Coach needs more assets to build team
Since moving to Lawrence in 1997, fall has usured spring as my favorite season on Mount Oread. Orange and brown leaves race each other across campus, the temperature is perfectly mild, and basketball fever takes over the town.
As wonderful as this fall has been, though, the Kansas football team has been a blemish on the otherwise perfect season.
The Jayhawks stumbled to a 2-10 record in coach Mark Mangino's first season — one he would seemingly want to forget. After Saturday's game, though, Mangino said the team would take something from each of this year's games and learn from it in preparing for next fall.
After taking Mangino to task for not starting Brian Luke and not suspending players facing police charges in previous columns, I felt it was time to help Mangino by offering my suggestions for positives from each of Kansas' 12 games. Iowa State 45, Kansas 3
It wasn't a season opener to remember, but a few Jayhawks had decent first appearances, especially quarterback Bill Whittemore. The junior college transfer led the team on its only scoring drive after replacing an ineffective Zach Dyer. University of Nevada-Las Vegas 31. Kansas 90
Whittemore continued his strong play, completing 22 of 42 passes for 225 yards in his first start for Kansas. Junior punter Curtis Ansel averaged 44.6 yards on nine punts, including an 82-yard bomb that tied for third-longest in Kansas history. Kansas 44. Southwest Missouri State 24
Second-year freshman Greg Heaggans returned the opening kickoff 100 yards fora touchdown, which tied for the second-longest return in school history. Heaggans 195 total kickoff return yards set the Kansas single-game record.

Kansas beats Baylor for first win in Waco

Getting its first ever win at Waco, Texas, could have not come at a better time for the Kansas volleyball squad.
The Jayhawks won their fourth road conference match Saturday by defeating the Baylor Bears (9-18 overall, 2-14 Big 12 Conference) in a three game sweep (30-20, 30-22, 30-26). The team's ninth conference win is the most in a season in Kansas history.
Kansas (18-7, 9-7) snapped its two-match losing streak by not allowing a Baylor player, Tisha Schwartz, to register double-digits kills. This is the fourth time this season the Jayhawks have performed this feat. Schwartz, junior outside hitter, who was second in the Big 12 in kills per game, was held to eight kills and had 11 hitting errors in 34 attempts. Schwartz ended he match with a negative .088 hitting percentage.
"Coach has been down to Baylor four times, so it was nice to get him his first win in Waco," senior outside hitter Molly Seavuzzo said. "It was a total team effort tonight with everyone on the team doing their part."
Kansas freshman middle blocker Josiane Lima led the team with 12 kill. Sophomore libero Jill Dorssey, who led Kansas in digs for the first time since Oct. 23, had 11.
"Tonight's win was a good, clean win," said coach Ray Bechard. "With the exception of a few serving problems, we did everything well. It is very nice to reach some of these plateaus because it means we're making progress."
The Jayhawks play No.5 Nebraska at 7 p.m. Wednesday at the NU Coliseum in Lincoln, Neb.

Women remain undefeated

The Kansas women's basketball team took another step in the right direction yesterday, but dragged its feet on the way out the door.
"They really outworked us in that first half," coach Marian Washington said after the game. "It was really good to see our young club come out the second half and take it up another notch. That alone makes us as a staff really pleased about some of the improvement we have been looking for."
The Jayhawks beat Fort Hays State University 73-56 to finish the exhibition season undefeated, but the Division II Tigers led 35-32 at halftime.
In their first game of the season, the Tigers looked like they were putting on a clinic rather than an exhibition. Fort Hays scored seven unanswered points in the final 1:55 of the first half. The run was capped by an offensive rebound and layup by Free State High graduate and Fort Hays sophomore Katie Rhodes in the closing seconds.
That improvement was no where in sight at the end of the first 20 minutes.
The Tigers pumped their fists and yelled to each other as they ran to the locker room, but it was the Jayhawks' turn to celebrate in the second half.
"We were saying to ourselves that they were going into the locker room like they have us beat," sophomore guard Aquanita Burra said after the game. "But we had to change our attitude and focus on what we had to do in the second half."
The Jayhawks have learned how to overcome first-half deficits by engaging in role-playing exercises, Washington said.
The preparation paid off.
Kansas opened the second half with a 19-4 run, making the score 51-39. The Jayhawks didn't trail again.
Guards led the way for Kansas.
Burras scored 11 points in the second half and finished with 19. The slower Tiger defenders had trouble keeping up with Burras. Most of her points came off fastbreak layups and drives to the basket.
"We ran our lanes," Burrasaid.
"We were trying to get those fast, easy points.

The Battenfeld Scholarship Hall intramural flag football team earned a spot in the Footlocker.com Regional Flag Football Tournament.
Quarterback Justin Nightingale, Oak Grove, Mo., sophomore, sealed the victory for Battenfeld on a fourth-and-10 play late in the second half when he scrambled for a 12-yard gain.
the tournament will be Nov. 22 to Nov. 24 at the University of Nebraska in Lincoln, Neb. The trip to the tournament came after Battenfeld's defeat of the Black Knights, another KU intramural team.
MONDAY, NOVEMBER 18,2002
After Nightingale's scramble, the team scored its final touchdown to give Battenfeld a 15-point victory. The game, played at Memorial Stadium, was delayed 30 minutes because the stadium lights failed to turn on. The game was tied at the half, but Battenfeld controlled play in the second half.
"That play allowed us to waste the clock," said Battenfeld player/coach Matt Seger, Newton junior.
Other key players in the championship victory
included wide receiver and defensive back Isaac Hodges, Sterling sophomore, and defensive specialist Charlie Stinson, Hiawatha sophomore.
The team used momentum from its victory against Grace Pearson to secure a five-point victory against Stephenson Scholarship Hall. In the Stephenson game, the team played strong defense forcing six interceptions.
Seger said the team considered itself contenders when it defeated Grace Pearson Scholarship Hall 60-0 in the first tournament game.
Battenfeld now will advance to play other intramural championship teams from schools in Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska and Iowa. The winner of the regional tournament in Lincoln will advance to the national championships in New Orleans.
"Our strength is definitely in our safeties and cornerbacks." Seger said.
"Right now, we feel like we are on a roll after winning the championship," Seger said.

Chiefs take Buffalo Bills 17-16
The Associated Press

www.kansan.com
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Trent Green's rushing touchdowns are rare - and timely.
Buffalo, which started the day tied with Miami and New England in the AFC East, took a 16-10 lead on Mike Hollis' third field goal, a 27-yarder late in the third period.
The usually immobile quarterback darted 9 yards up the middle for the go-ahead score with 4:53 to play, then Eric Warfield intercepted Drew Bledsoe's final pass to complete the Kansas City Chiefs' 17-16 victory over the Buffalo Bills yesterday.
Pass-interference penalties against the Bills on consecutive plays, including a 36-yarder against Chris Watson, allowed the Chiefs (5-5) to set up Green's unexpected scramble.
The Bills (5-5) didn't get much out of their high-powered offense again, failing to score at least two touchdowns for the second straight game.
Priest Holmes, held in check for most of the game, picked up 44 yards on four straight runs, and the Chiefs never gave the ball back.
Bledsoe appeared to have Peerless Price open for a touchdown on the next possession, but Warfield made a leaping interception near the goal line to put the Chiefs in business at the Kansas City 11 with 4:14 left.
Facing third-and-goal from the 9, Green dropped back in the pocket and then bent straight up the middle for his first rushing touchdown of the year.
Bledsoe was 24-of-36 for 225 yards and became just the fifth man in NFL history to pass for more
than 3,000 yards in his first 10 games.
Holmes, who had 104 yards on 31 carries, gave Kansas City a 7-0 lead in the first quarter with a 4-yard run when he sidestepped a lunging Pierson Prioleau.
The Bills had first-and-goal from the 5 early in the second period, but Bledsoe missed on three straight passes, and Hollis kicked a 23-yarder.
Buffalo then took the Chiefs completely by surprise with a perfectly executed onside kick, with Charles Johnson pouncing on the ball at the Bills 49. But again the Bills blew another great touchdown opportunity after getting a first down at the 11.
A 15-yard facemask penalty on Buffalo defensive lineman Pat Williams helped set up Morten Andersen's 38-yard field goal with 6:40 left in the half as the Chiefs took a 10-6 lead.
Officials at first ruled that Eric Moulds had caught a 9-yard TD pass. But the Chiefs got it overturned on review and forced the Bills to settle for Hollis' 53-yard that made it 7-6.
Moulds beat backup cornerback Corey Harris on a 7-yard TD pass with 32 seconds left to give the Bills a 13-10 lead. Harris had come into the game a few minutes earlier after cornerback William Bartee went out with an ankle injury.
Hollis' third field goal carried 27 yards and capped a frustrating 71-yard drive, after the Bills failed to overcome 50 yards in penalties, including a 15-yard unnecessary-roughness call on Price for shoving Warfield after Price caught a 9-yard reception.
Travis Henry had 126 yards on 24 carries for the Bills.
Hurricanes top AP football poll
The Hurricanes (9-0) received all 74 first-place votes and 1,850 points from the sports writers and broadcasters on the AP panel. Miami hosts No.17 Pittsburgh on Thursday night and still has games left against Syracuse and No.13 Virginia Tech.
The Associated Press
Miami was a unanimous No.1 in the AP media poll again, while Ohio State remained second despite a shaky win and Texas tumbled out of the top 10.
Miami and Ohio State are the only unbeaten teams remaining in Division I-A, and are expected to hold the top two spots when the Bowl Championship Series standings are released today. Last week, Ohio State edged Miami for first place by .69 points.
Ohio State (12-0), which struggled to a 23-16 overtime win at Illinois, had 1,766 points — five less than a week ago. The Buckeyes are home against No. 12 Michigan on Saturday needing a victory to clinch a spot in the BCS national title game in the Fiesta Bowl on Jan. 3.
Miami remained No. 1 in the USA Today/ESPN coaches poll with all 61 first-place votes, and Ohio State was second.
Texas (9-2) was upset by Texas Tech 42-38 and fell to No.11 from a co-No.4 ranking a week ago.
Washington State (9-2) did not play on Saturday and remained No. 3, followed by Oklahoma, Iowa Georgia, USC, Notre Dame, Alabama and Kansas State.
The Hawkeyes (11-1, 8-0 Big Ten) completed their regular season with a 45-21 win over Minnesota and moved up one spot from last week.
Georgia (10-1) also advanced one place after clinching the SEC East title with a 24-21 win over Auburn.
LSU (7-3) also took a big fall after its 31-0 loss to Alabama, dropping seven spots to No.21.

Stewart places 18th in race, first in points to beat Martin
HOMESTEAD, Fla. — Tony Stewart got the job done yesterday, winning the Winston Cup championship with an 18th-place finish as Kurt Busch raced to victory in the Ford 400.
Stewart came into the race knowing he needed only to finish 22nd or better to beat Mark Martin in their championship duel, no matter what the challenger did. Martin gave it a game try, but came up 38 points short.
Stewart never led the 267-lap race at Homestead-Miami Speedway, but was easily good enough to beat Martin, who finished fourth.
"Unbelievable!" Stewart said as he got out of his car and thrust his hands skyward. "We never gave up. I'm really happy. This team deserves this."
Stewart, who has undergone anger management sessions for his fiery temper that has led to fines and probation, then hugged his crew chief, Greg Zipadelli.

Cross country misses nationals
By Justin Schmidt
jschmidt@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas men's and women's cross country teams finished seventh and sixth at the NCAA Midwest Regional Championships in Normal, Ill. on Saturday.
The teams needed a top-two finish to get an automatic bid to the NCAA Championships on Nov. 25. Iowa and Minnesota took the honors for the men. Big 12 conference rival Missouri won the women's race and Northwestern finished second.
Although neither team will likely receive an at-large bid to the National Championships, the teams are pleased with the progress they have made over the last few seasons.
"I know everyone is proud of what we were able to do as a team this year," junior Paige Higgins said. "This was the best team we've had with the new coaches."
The sixth place finish by the women was the best since 1994 when Kansas won the regional title. The men's seventh place finish is the best since 1996.
"We are definitely excited about our placing in the meet," coach Stanley Redwine said."We are constantly getting better and better each meet and each year."
Senior Mark Menefee, finished eighth overall and may gr a bid to the NCAA meet. The top four finishers from non-qualifying teams will be running at the National Tournament. Menefee will find out today if his season will continue.
"I'll be disappointed if that was my last race," Menefee said. "Going into the race I was running with the intention to win. I went out too fast and I should have waited in the pack, but I thought everyone went out too slow."
Menefee led the race for the first four miles of the race but fell off the pace after that.
Sophomore Chris Jones and freshman Cameron Schwehr finished second and third for Kansas. They crossed the line 15th and 26th overall. Juniors Brian Raggett and Joshy Madathil finished out Kansas'scoring five.
Higgins finished first for Kansas in the women's race. This was the first time she led the team this year. Sophomore Megan Manthe and freshman Angela Pichardo finished second and third for Kansas, 38th and 42nd overall. Juniors Laura Laviole and Lauren Brownrigg rounded out the team's top five finishers.

Strange, Azinger lead U.S. to win golf's Warburg Cup
The Associated Press
ST. SIMONS ISLAND, Ga.
— Ryder Cup memories came to life yesterday, as Paul Azinger held another bunker shot and Curtis Strange got a small measure of revenge against fellow captain Sam Torrance.
The difference at the UBS Warburg Cup was the outcome: the United States won.
The final score was 141/2 91/2 in matches between the United States and the Rest of the World.
Strange displayed a brilliant short game in a 4-and-3 victory over Torrance.
Has he ever lost to Torrance?
"Yeah, two months ago," Strange said. "The only time it mattered."
That would be the Ryder Cup, where Torrance guided the Europeans to a 151/2-121/2 victory over Strange's U.S. team.
Azinger kept alive American hopes at The Belfry by holing a dramatic bunker shot on the 18th hole.
Basketball CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
Burras' backcourt partner, junior Leila Mengiç, was the Jayhawks' second leading scorer. She hit 4-of-5 shots for 12 points. Burras and Megiç were two of four Jayhawk starters to tally ten or more points.
Forwards Blair Waltz, a sophomore, scored 11 points, and Crystal Kemp, a freshman, scored 10 points.
"To see four players in double figures is good," she said. "I mean, we've got to find ways to score."
The balanced production was encouraging. Washington said.
Kansas should have even more help in that area in the near future. Freshman point guard Erica Hallman is expected play in the season opener Sunday against the University of Texas-El Paso, Hallman, the 2002 Miss Kentucky Basketball award winner, has been sidelined with a partial tear in her anterior cruciate ligament.
Hallman warmed up with the team yesterday, but did not play.
"To see four players in double figures is good. I mean, we've got to find ways to score." Marian Washington Kansas women's basketball coach
"She told me I was a tease," Washington said. "I had her dress and I had her warm up with the team, but we decided that she would not play."
Note:
Kansas received its second recruit of the early signing period. Sharita Smith, a 5-foot-8-inch guard, signed a national letter of intent Friday morning. Smith averaged 16 points, six assists and four rebounds as a junior for Dallas Lincoln High School in Dallas.
Smith joins Lauren Ervin from Inglewood High School in Inglewood, Calif., as the first members of the Jayhawks' 2003 recruiting class.

K-State, Nebraska switching roles
The Associated Press
MANHATTAN — Kansas State now knows it won't be playing for the Big 12 title. Other than that, what's to gripe about?
The Wildcats could be having the kind of season Nebraska's having, which is almost the same season K-State had a year ago.
K-State — 6-6 in 2001 — is 9-2 overall and 5-2 in the Big 12 Conference after pounding the Cornhuskers 49-13 on Saturday. Victories in their regular-season
in defeat Missouri this week and in their inevitable bowl game would give the Wildteats their fifth 11-win season in six years.
On Sunday, they moved up a spot to No.10 in The Associated Press poll, their highest ranking of the year.
"I wish things would have been a little different for us starting off, but we're playing some really good football right now," linebacker Josh Buhl said.
Only seven points — a 4-point loss to Colorado and a 3-point
overtime loss to No. 11 Texas — keep K-State from a perfect record.
"I think it's human instinct to have some regrets," defensive end Andrew Shull said, "but if we get caught up in looking back, it's not going to do us any good."
Nebraska, on the other hand,
continues to suffer through its
worst season in more than 30 years
— just one year after playing in the national championship game.
in the Big Eight in 1968. Nebraska's five regular-season losses are the most since the 1961 team went 3-6-1, and Saturday's loss dropped the Huskers' road record against ranked teams to 1-7 under coach Frank Solich.
The Cornhuskers (7-5, 5-2)
earned their first non-winning conference record since going 3-1
"If you would have told me we were going to be like this at the beginning of the season, I would have asked you if you had run into a wall or were on drugs, because this is not what's supposed to happen," said kicker Josh Brown.
Royals to slash payroll after 100-loss year
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City Royals will see some changes in payroll next season.
"We had the highest payroll in the history of the Royals last year, and we lost 100 games. So obviously, we need to do something
different," he said.
Owner David Glass said the payroll for the roster would be trimmed $10 million to $37 million for 2003.
Glass said the figure included money to re-sign their pitcher-of-the-year, Paul Byrd after going 17-11 with a 3.90 ERA.
rosters bv March.
Based on 2002 major league baseball salaries, the Royals' $37 million payroll would have placed the team next to last among the league's 30 teams. Where the 2003 payroll will put Royals on that list will not be known until all teams set their
The Royals have not expected several high-priced players to resign, including shortstop Neifi Perez, who was paid $4.1 million last year.
Mike Seneca, who signed a five-year contract extension last spring, will see his salary rise to $11 million next year.
Carlos Beltran, who made $3.5 million last year, will go to salary arbitration and will probably
command about $6 million.
Other expensive players under contract include third baseman Joe Randa at $4.5 million, catcher Brent Mayne and outfielder Michael Tucker, $2.75 million, and reliever Jason Grimsley, $2 million.
Also eligible for arbitration is first baseman/outfielder Raul Ibanez, who made $800,000 last year while having a breakthrough season.

Protesters crash fashion show
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Animal rights protesters tried to steal the spotlight at the taping of the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, storming the stage as scantily clad supermodel Gisele Bundchen strutted down the runway.
Carrying signs that said "Gisele: Fur Scum," four members of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals ran on stage Thursday night. PETA has targeted Bundchen since she signed a modeling contract with Blackglama, a leading American fur company.
The protesters were led away by security guards, and three of them received summonses for disorderly conduct, said a spokesman for the New York Police Department.

was restaged and retaped. A Victoria's Secret spokesman declined to comment.
The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show draws attention each year for bringing the world's most famous faces and bodies to the airwaves. Other leading supermodels, including Heidi Klum and Tyra Banks, also headlined the show. This year's show, the eighth annual, is scheduled to air at 8 p.m. Wednesday on CBS.
Last year, the show came under fire when it aired on ABC. The
National Organization for Women called it demeaning to women, and the Parents Television Council said it was part of a trend of "crass and vulgar" TV programming.
A Federal Communications Commission member asked for an investigation into whether the show violated indecency regulations; in March, the FCC decided it did not.
The special drew 12.3 million viewers last year, finishing third in its time slot and doing marginally better than the show it replaced.
The lingerie maker, owned primarily by the Columbus, Ohiobased The Limited Inc.,paid to produce the fashion show for ABC and was responsible for buying most of the commercial time on the hour, either to use itself or sell to others.

too easy."
The Kansas defense was play ing without Zach Dyer, who started at quarterback.
Brandon Baker/Kansar
Dyer threw for 161 yards on 14 of 28 passing including a 16-yard touchdown pass to senior wide receiver Byron Gasaway in the second quarter.
"I was feeling confident and comfortable," Dyer said. "For a time there I thought we had a chance to win."
That opportunity grew slim when midway through the third quarter Dyer suffered a separated right shoulder on a tackle. Dyer joins Bill Whittemore and Jonas Weatherbie as injured Jayhawk quarterbacks.
Kansas was able to jumpstart its running game against the Cowboys behind the legs of running back Clark Green. The second-year freshman had 160 rushing yards on 29 carries to go along with four catches for 55 yards.
"He couldn't lift up his shoulder," Mangino said. "I don't think it's a critical injury that's going to require surgery. But you can't have a quarterback that can't raise his arm."
The four receptions by Green broke the Kansas record for most receptions by a running back in a single season with 37 receptions.
of n lion," Mangino said. "If the guy didn't have to carry the ball and work so hard on offense I'd play him both ways and put him on defense because he'd make plays over there, too."
"He's not a real big guy, he's not a real fast guy, but he has the heart.
Oklahoma State's plays overcame the effort of the Jayhawks on a day when Kansas had four more first downs than the Cowboys and had the football nearly double the number of minutes.
23
In an eight-minutespan during the third and fourth quarters, Cowboy Thomas Wright ran a blocked Curtis Ansel punt back 15 yards for a touchdown, and Terrence Robinson scooped up a Green fumble and scampered 95 yards for a touchdown to put the Cowbows ahead 55-17.
Rashaun Woods, Cowboys junior wide receiver, attempts to elude Bobby Birihiray, junior defensive back. Woods caught three touchdown passes and finished the game with 171 yards receiving.
"Today was a day that statistics can be deceiving," Mangino said. "The time of possession doesn't really tell the tale today. We gave up too many quick scores."
Mangino said he expected hard work during the off season from current Jayhawks.
"We have to develop the players we we have in the program because we're not going to go out and recruit a whole new team this year," Mangino said.
Notes:
Senior offensive guard David Hurst had a seizure in the Kansas locker room after the game. Mangino said Hurst was taken to the Lawrence Memorial Hospital for precautionary reasons.

yards we wouldn't have to do up-downs, so if I could get a total on that I would be really happy right now," Fields said. A reporter informed him the Cowboys had tallied 549 offensive yards.
"Okay, well then we don't have to do up-downs. That's all I'm worried about right now," Fields said.
"I think this is great day for Fields," Miles said. "Fields and Woods had big, big games."
Judging by Miles' reaction to the Cowboys' offensive performance, Fields probably won't have to worry about doing extra exercises at practice
The win moves Oklahoma State a step closer to bowl eligibility. The Cowboys (5-5, 3-3) need one more victory to qualify. They have games against Baylor and Oklahoma remaining.
Woods is focused on reaching that goal, he said.
"That's what I've been preaching all week," he said of preparing for the postseason. "I can't wait. All we have to do is win this week, and we're bowl bound."

Second-year freshman quarterback Brian Luke saw his first collegiate action, replacing Jonas Weatherbie in the second quarter, gaining valuable experience for being Whittemore's backup next season. Freshman linebacker Nick Reid and sophomore safety Johnny McCoy both had a team-high 11 tackles. Nebraska 45, Kansas 7
McCoy had nine tackles, and Reid had eight, including two sacks.
Oklahoma State 55, Kansas 20
Green had a career day with 215 yards of total offense — 160 rushing and 55 receiving. Sophomore kicker Johnny Beck also snapped his missed field goal streak at eight, making two of three attempts.
In Mangino's first year at Kansas, the Jayhawks learned they had a crafty quarterback, a good running back and a talented punter. That's certainly something to build on next season, but unless Mangino can find more positives than I could, his second year is likely to look similar to his first.

Grad's death lamented by friends, roommates
By Michaelle Burhenn mburhenn@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Casey Knisley could often be found in front of his computer.
"Most of Casey's friends will say when you think of Casey, you picture him in front of the computer either playing a game or programming something," said Michael Wilson, Pittsburg senior.
Knisley, a 23-year-old University of Kansas graduate from Independence, Kan., died early Sunday morning after his car left the roadway and struck a tree and a fence off West 15th Street.

Casey Knisley
Wilson last saw Knisley, his roommate and fellow Theta Chi fraternity member, Saturday night as he was going out with a friend.
"It wasn't unusual for any one of us to show up really late or rather than driving home, spend the night at a friend's house after going out," Wilson said. "When he didn't show up before we went to bed, we weren't worried."
"It was 8 o'clock in the morning, and he wasn't back," said Travis Nordwald, Minnetonka, Minn., senior. "When I saw the police, he didn't even have to tell me. I already knew."
But when another roommate was woken by an early morning knock on the door, he knew something had happened to his friend.
Lawrence police Sgt. Mike Pattrick said Knisley was driving eastbound on West 15th Street near Bobwhite Drive when his white 2002 Acura RSX left the roadway. Pattrick said Lawrence police were investigating excessive speeds as the cause of the accident, but nothing at the scene, where Knisley was pronounced dead, indicated that alcohol was a factor.

Funeral services for Carol "Casey" Knisley will be at 2 p.m. Thursday at First Presbyterian Church in Independence, Kan. Knisley's family will greet visitors from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. tomorrow at Webb & Rodrick Funeral Home in Independence. The family suggests memorials in his name to the Science and Math Scholarship Fund at Independence High School, and they may be sent in care of the funeral home, 306 W. Main St., Independence, Kan. 67301.
senior, began making about 50 phone calls Sunday to Knisley's friends. Knisley's roommates and about 50 other Theta Chi members and alumni gathered in the evening at the fraternity to talk about Knisley and cone with his death, Wilson said.
Wilson said fraternity members planned to establish a scholarship in Knisley's name to be given to a Theta Chi member each year.
With Knisley as a roommate, computer games and Comedy Central were normal entertainment. Wilson said. Knisley's real name, Carol, also often provided jokes for his roommates.
"When we played computer games against each other, my character's name was always Carol just to make fun of him," said Wilson of Knisley, who

E-buying brings big bucks

Sean Henning is a bicycle peddler.
The Leawood freshman sold bikes at Wheeler's Cycle & Fitness in Kansas City, Mo., for two years. But in summer 2002, Henning worked for himself and sold 13 bikes from garage sales on eBay.com, making $2,800 in the process.
"I just saw that I had a lot of bikes sitting in my basement that could be money in my pocket, and you can't ride 13 bikes at once," Henning said.
For any student with a similar entrepreneurial spirit, eBay and other online auction sites such as uBid and Yahoo! Auctions can be treasure trove
Founded in 1995, eBay now hosts 49.7 million registered users buying, selling and browsing everything from lawn gnomes to BMWs.
Online auction Web sites are used by individual buyers, sellers and small businesses. After registering for free, eBay users can bid in all auctions on the site. Users can also participate in any of the site's chat boards and forums.
Ann Brill, associate professor of journalism teaches a class on online journalism and how the Internet affects society. She said online shopping services such as eBay and Amazon.com had many advantages, including charging no interstate sales tax and providing convenient shopping from home.
"People all over the world are trading on eBay," Brill said. "The old saying 'One man's junk is another man's treasure' is really true on eBay. It's really like a flea market on steroids."
Brill said some people had become so successful by selling on eBay that they quit their jobs to sell on eBay full time.
"It really puts everyone out there as an entrepreneur," Brill said.
10
Henning, who races mountain bikes, said he bought a road bike off eBay in July.
"I paid about $150 for it, but I was able to acquire a lot of cheap parts for it, and now it's worth $500," Henning said.

Student employee wages to increase
By Molly Gise mgise@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Student hourly employees who now receive less than $6 per hour will see a fraction of the tuition increase in their pay-checks next month.
The minimum wage for student hourly employees will be raised next semester to $6 per hour. Federal minimum wage is $5.15 per hour.
University officials announced last week that $150,000 of funds raised through this fall's tuition increase would go toward raising student hourly wages.
"We think the on-campus work experience is valuable to students," said Vice Provost Lindy Eakin. "We need to make it affordable for them to take those jobs."
The raise will help student workers like Jen Bedore, Derby freshman.
Bedore helps pay her way through school by working as a desk assistant and security monitor in Templin Hall. She said she had about $16 in her bank account.
The University has 4,801 positions open to students, and 1,056
"When I say I need a job, I mean I really need a job," Bedore said.

Fraternities may offer housing swap option
By Todd Happ

Kansan staff writer
By Todd Repp
If the Interfraternity Council and the Student Housing department can come to an agreement, fraternities may be able to offer their men several housing options.
At the moment, fraternity members living in student housing are unable to move into their chapter houses because they are legally bound to the department of Student Housing.
The Interfraternity Council has proposed a plan to allow fraternity men contracted to live in a residence hall to
get out of their leases when an equal amount of men move into the residence halls from fraternity houses. The proposed plan would be a swap system. For every man that moves into a residence hall from a fraternity, that fraternity can allow a member wanting to move into the house to get out of its student housing contract under the plan.
"In the past, if a fraternity wanted to break a housing contract, the fraternity had to pay out the remainder of the contract," said Andy Knopp, Interfraternity Council president and Manhattan junior. "It will save them approximately $2,200 per man per semester. When you multiply that by 25 men throughout the system, you are looking at$55,000 of money lost."
Ken Stoner, director of Student Housing, said this was just a proposal, and no program was set yet. He said the current deal with the Interfraternity Council was like that of any landlord. Residents cannot end their leases in the middle of the period.
"At the moment they can't do that. Once the year starts, we don't release people from one contract into another housing contract," Stoner said. "What-ever lease they entered into first is the lease they have to honor."
He said that the program was an interesting idea and that the department was waiting on the final proposals from the Interfraternity Council. He said credit could be offered to the fraternities if men moved into student housing but didn't have a counterpart waiting to move into a fraternity. The credit would only last for that academic year.
Details are still being discussed, Knopp said. If men from one chapter move into student housing and no one is waiting to move into that chapter, the Interfraternity Council does not yet know how it will divide up the credits between the other fraternities.
"A lot of Greek leaders have been pushing for a seamless transition where any student can move out of a residence hall into a fraternity with no penalty," Knopp said.

Treanor Architects chosen to build hall
The University of Kansas Endowment Association selected the architectural firm that will design a new women's scholarship hall on Ohio Street.
Treanor Architects was chosen for its work in historical neighborhoods and the quality of people in the firm, said Daryl Beene, senior vice president for property at the Endowment Association.
Consultants of the firms were interviewed last week by representatives from the association.
"We wanted to be certain that specific people were on this project, committed to this project and understood the concerns of University and neighborhood groups." Beene said. "We were pleased with the answers we received."
A community advisory committee will assist with the design of the scholarship hall, which is expected to be finished by summer 2005.
That committee will be led by Treanor design consultant Vance Kelley and will consist of members of Lawrence Historic Resources Commission, Campus Historic Preservation Board, Lawrence Preservation Alliance, Oread Neighborhood Association and KU All Scholarship Hall Council.

Lawrence woman raped in apartment
CITY
A 20-year-old Lawrence woman told the Lawrence Police Department that an unidentified man raped her over the weekend in a West Lawrence apartment, said Lawrence police Sgt. Mike Patrick.
The woman said that a stranger raped her between 10 p.m. Wednesday and 5 a.m. Thursday, Patrick said.
Michelle Burhenn
Patrick said the woman reported the rape at 9 p.m. Thursday at Lawrence Memorial Hospital. Police
were investigating whether drugs or alcohol are contributing factors, Pattrick said. Police are working with the victim to develop suspect information.
International students bring millions to state
LAWRENCE — College students who come to Kansas from other nations contribute more than $100 million annually to the state economy, according to researchers.
"Having international students in the classroom with domestic students provides dialogue about the issue that just wouldn't be possible if they weren't there," said Joe Potts, international student services director at the University of Kansas, where 1,677 students are enrolled this year from abroad.
But, Potts added, "the financial stuff is great, too."
The New York-based Institute of International Education, in an annual report released yesterday, listed Kansas 25th in the nation this academic year with 7,244 international students at public and private colleges. Those students' estimated net financial contribution is about $130 million, the institute said.

U.N. inspectors return to Iraq after 4 years
BAGHDAD, Iraq — U.N. arms inspectors returned to Iraq yesterday after a four-year hiatus, calling on President Saddam Hussein's government to cooperate with their search for weapons of mass destruction in the interest of peace.
Eventually more than 220 inspectors from 49 countries will be deployed, although how many at any one time would vary.
Chief U.N. inspector Hans Blix said inspections could begin as early as Nov. 27. Blix then must report to the Security Council within 60 days about his progress.

Alternative Breaks to go abroad
By Katie Nelson
knelson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Alternative Breaks is heading south of the border.
State of Chiapas Mexico
A Mexico
group of students will travel to San Cristobal de las Casas in the State of Chiapas for Alternative Breaks to volunteer at a ranch.
For the first time, KU's Alternative Breaks program is sending a group of volunteers outside the United States and into Mexico.
Jason Elliott/Kansan
Seven students will volunteer in Mexico's southern-most state, Chiapas. Beginning in June the group will work at a 20-acre organic ranch southeast of San Cristobal de Las Casas. The ranch is a part of a world-wide network of organic farms that are working to protect the environment and create sustainable agriculture.
Alternative Breaks has been consistently growing over the past few years, adding more volunteer sites each year to the already existing winter, spring and weekend break programs. A summer trip abroad was the next logical step in expanding KU's Break's program, said Jessie Mester, a Topeka senior who is serving as a director of Alternative Breaks this year.
"Going during the summer is going to allow more time to actually do service," Mester said.
Ara Johannes and Willow Robin, summer break coordinators, selected Rancho Chichihuistan because of its focus on organic farming.
"We're looking for someone that's really into service work," said Johannes, a Bombay, India, junior. "It's going to be hard, really hard work, where you will be working every single muscle in your body. They have to be willing to rough it for two weeks. If you are looking for a happy vacation, this is probably not for you."
In addition to tough work, it won't be easy traveling either, admits Robin, a St. Louis senior.
10 get there, the group will fly into either Mexico City or Cancun. From there, the group will take a 16-hour bus ride to Chiapas's capital, Tuxtla, and a two-hour ride to San Cristobal.
The group will be in Chiapas at the tail end of its rain season. The ranch has coffee plants, avocado and apple trees. Potatoes, beans, corn, peas, carrots and other vegetables are also grown there.
The volunteers will work about six hours a day at the ranch with members of the local indigenous population.
Applications for the trip, along with a $50 deposit, are due by 5 p.m. Nov. 26 in the Alternative Breaks office at room 428 in the Kansas Union.
"Expanding the diversity of the service opportunities that we can provide people is really important to us." Mester said. "Going abroad is a really neat avenue we have always wanted to take, and hopefully those that go will bring their experiences back to the KU community and take it on with them through life."

Engineering grant to create new labs
By Justin Henning

Kansan staff writer
A $1.6 million grant the School of Engineering received from the SBC Foundation, the philanthropic arm of SBC Communications Inc., will go toward scholarships, recruitment and new teaching laboratories.
The recruiter will focus on recruiting minority students straight out of high school.The engineering school has 160
Forrest E. Hoglund, chair of KU First, announced the grant Nov. 7. To meet the first objective, $600,000 will be allocated as scholarship money for minorities and women and to pay for a fulltime recruitment position. The remaining $1 million of the grant will be used to create three new teaching labs for the telecommunications, information security and Internet programs in the department of electrical engineering and computer science.
"We've had a longstanding relationship with SBC to match the University's needs with the needs of the foundation and they agreed," said John Scarfe, director of communications for the Kansas University Endowment Association.
minority students enrolled.
"It would be great to double that number," said Florence Boldridge, director of diversity for the school.
The three labs that will be created with the other part of the grant are now in two buildings. A telecommunications lab is in Learned Hall, 15th Street and Naismith Drive, and the Internet and information security labs are in Snow Hall. The new labs will combine them in the new wing of Learned Hall, which is still under construction.
"This comes at a very integral time since the building is under construction," said Jill Hummels, director of public relations for the school. "This will ensure that the equipment will be state-of-the-art, which is essential to giving the best education we can provide."
The labs are scheduled to open at the beginning of the Fall 2003 fall.
"This grant is directly connected to what SBC likes to fund throughout the country," Scarfe said. "They are programs that increase access to technology training, especially for underserved populations, and this matches up with the goals of the University to diversity as well."
Students brainstorm to improve residence hall life

Sixteen students went to Iowa for inspiration on how to improve residence hall life.
the opportunity to reflect on and improve life in the halls.
The annual conference for the Midwest Affiliate of College and University Residence Halls at the University of Northern Iowa in Cedar Falls, Iowa, this weekend, offered student representatives
"This is something that we're really proud of," said Aramis Watson, president of the Association of University Residence Halls. The residence hall association took the maximum number of students and paid the way for all 16 to attend.
Members of the residence hall association, hall government leaders and resident assistants view the conference as an indispensable
tool to facilitate ideas and give inspiration, Watson, Wichita junior, said. KU students have attended the events since 1960, and KU has hosted four times.
The weekend offered students a chance to become re-energized about improving residence hall life, said Kandace Creel, national communications coordinator for the Association of University Residence Halls.
"The theme of the conference
was building a better future," said Creel, Albuquerque, N.M., junior. "I think the delegates who went to the conference are well on their way to doing that."
Tami Alloway, vice president of administration for the residence hall association, helped present a program on recognition in residence halls. Other schools recognized the KU program as the eighth best of about 75.
Alloway said she was surprised
at how well received the presentation was.
"We had planned it like last weekend and presented it for the first time Thursday night," the Manhattan sophomore said.
Alloway said he heard many good ideas from other schools, including one inspired by The Learning Channel's Trading Spaces. She said some students in those schools would get $75 to swap rooms for a day and redeco-
rate with the help of a student designer.
The students learned about teamwork as a result of preparing presentations, a banner and a display for the conference.
"I learned so much about leadership and high management," Alloway said. "It teaches you how to get everyone involved because you can't do everything yourself."

KANSAN EDITORIAL BOARD
H.O.P.E. award deserves publicity, student input
The Honor for an Outstanding Progressive Educator Awards, or H.O.P.E. Awards, are an annual honor given to a professor selected by each year's senior class. The award, established in 1959 by the graduating seniors, represents a unique opportunity for students to acknowledge those professors who have provided a special addition to the University of Kansas.
According to The University Daily Kansan, roughly 5,700 seniors were eligible to vote, but only 192 did. With a voter turnout below 4 percent, there is a desperate need for promotion of the award.
This Saturday at the KU-Oklahoma State football game, seniors selected mathematics professor Bozenna Pasik-Duncan as the recipient of this year's H.O.P.E. Award.
Unfortunately, few seniors are aware of the award, and even fewer voted on it.
The problem is further exacerbated by the voting process. In order to vote, seniors had to cast their ballots during a four-hour period Wednesday afternoon in front of Strong Hall. Perhaps students are less to blame for low voter turnout than the process of voting is.
In addition, the selection process itself is flawed. The process is multitiered; ballots are cast by seniors to select the finalists from a list of nominees.
This year there were 17 nominees, and seniors were able to select three of them. Of the seven finalists selected, only one is then chosen by the senior advisory board.
The advantage of this board is its fairness and ability to place a professor who has classes of 1000 students on equal footing with a professor who has classes of eight students. In reality, this balancing effect is compromised because the student body selects the finalists before the board can select the winner. Both nominating and selecting the winner for the award should be decided primarily by students.
But these problems do not suggest the award is without hope.
The award should be promoted and voting made more accessible. Allowing for a longer voting period or electronic voting would be a first step. It would only take small simple steps to raise participation numbers dramatically.
In the selection process, emphasis should be shifted from a relatively unknown, anonymous senior advisory board to the senior student body.
The entire senior class should be a part of the selection process for the H.O.P.E. Awards, and action should be taken to ensure that they are involved.

PERSPECTIVES
Too many voices spoil the talk for the sports show genre
ketball and football are all on at the same time.
This time of the year is any sports fan's fantasy. Pro football and basketball as well as college bas-
But unfortunately now, it means that there are more issues for sports columnists and sports analysts to argue on a daily basis.
Sports commentators and pundits can be entertaining, and they certainly add life to the sports world, but now anyone can become a sports "expert" and make a decent living arguing about sports.
COMMENTARY
Now, you can't read a sports section, watch ESPN, or listen to the radio without getting the opinion of some 300 pound sports columnist who played special teams on his junior varsity high school football team.
They talk to us like they know what it is like to be in the huddle, the locker room, or in the playoffs when the closest they have been to any of those situations is when they manually adjust the volume on their televisions.
What I find most ironic is that some of the people who tell us what is going on in the sports world and what should be done are people who have never participated in sports past the high school level.

sports related issue.
Sports is supposed to be a diversion from life's travails and not the cause of them.
Case in point. I am so glad the KU football season is over so I can quit reading all the columnists playing arm chair quarterback and writing about how the team should be run and how the players should play.
Pro sports are even worse.
There are so many sports commentary shows out right now that every issue gets beaten to death.
Pardon the Interruption, The Sports Reporters, The Best Damn Sports Show Period, The Jim Rome Show and Around the Horn all debate sports issues. Now when a pro athlete loses his temper, a college player takes money from a booster or when someone wins an award, these shows all argue about it like it is some pressing national affair.
When Terrell Owens signed a football
that he caught for a touchdown, it was talked about so much you'd think he punted the ball to the moon instead.
I don't mind a healthy discussion about actual sports topics that have real world implications like Major League Baseball contraction, the Bowl Championship Series, and salary caps. I do respect that these guys have the cajones to call out athlete/ thugs like Allen Iverson, Randy Moss and Mike Tyson on national TV.
But to argue for hours about who is going to win a game or complain about who should have won an award is pointless.
As you read this, four more guys have started their own AM sports radio show and are discussing such pressing issues like Anna Kournikova not winning a tournament or how Maurice Clarrett should be allowed to leave college early for the NFL.
Because I have no basketball or football background either, I think it's only appropriate that I play sports columnist for one paragraph.
Miami will win the national championship in football, Kansas will win the national championship in basketball,and who cares about pro sports? They are just playing for the money and the fame.
Borja is a Springfield, Mo. senior in journalism.
Planning for future events and crises only works so well
Yet past weeks have shown the limits of planning ahead.
College is about foresight. Quite simply, students earn degrees in order to improve their futures. Planning ahead becomes apparent at this point in the semester, with seniors applying to graduate school or beginning to search for jobs.
On Oct. 25, Minnesota senator Paul Wellstone, campaigning for re-election, died in a plane crash.
No one could have seen it coming. In Moscow, Chechen separatists seized hostages in a theater. After Russian security forces stormed the building, more than 100 of the hostages were dead, people who never dreamed anything so terrible would happen when they decided to go to the show.
No one could have seen it coming.
This question borders on the ludicrous, because changing technology and economics render it impossible to answer.
Where will America be five years from now?
Jared Diamond, author of a book that offers a theory to explain why human history developed as it did, spoke at the Lied Center on Oct. 24.
Because his theory addresses thousands of years of history, one questioner asked him to project what the earth would look like a few hundred years into the future.
COMMENTARY
Joe Pull
opinion@kansan.com
COMMENTARY
Adeptly sidestepping the question,
Diamond replied that the real question was where the earth would be in 50 years, saying that unsustainable development was creating an environmental crisis that must be solved by that point.
He was clearly saying we needed to plan ahead, yet he simultaneously declined to predict what the future
His caution against guessing is probably wise.
The changes in the world between 1950 and 2000 were enormous; who can say what revolutions another half-century will bring?
But his circumspection is also frustrating; it becomes difficult to plan ahead when we have no idea what conditions to plan for.
But, the recent tragedies in Minnesota, Russia and the East Coast call attention to one situation where we do know enough to plan ahead; the ques-
would hold based upon his knowledge of the past. He claims to explain millennia of history, but declined even to guess at the future.
tion "Where will you as an individual be in 100 years?"
The answer to this is the same for nearly everyone currently working or studying at KU; in the ground.
It's a sobering thought, but an important one, for one strategy for solving problems is starting from the end and working backward to the present.
Just as college is an important way of planning ahead for life, so is answering the question "With the end in mind, what do I really want to do with the time between now and the year 2102?"
Pull is a Colfax, N.D. senior in history and political science.

eBay
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
Tony Johnson, assistant to the network administrator for the School of Journalism, also a frequent eBay seller. Johnson said he got into eBay in 1997 after a family friend introduced him to it.
"I don't really sell any one thing in particular," Johnson said, "just any sort of collectible stuff that might be sellable."
Johnson said he often found items to sell at garage sales and auctions, and years of selling had fine-tuned his ability to select what to sell.
"I made $80 on a 1950s phone amp that I found in a free box at a garage sale," Johnson said.
Johnson also collects KU
memorabilia, which he sometimes sells on eBay.
"The last thing I sold on eBay was an old KU pennant that I found at the antique mall downtown," Johnson said. "I made a pretty decent profit on that."
Many students at KU have used eBay to make purchases from home, including Ben Bullington, Lawrence junior, who bought computer memory from eBay.
"It's pretty cool that you can get on there and buy just about anything you want," Bullington said.
Despite being widely used all over the world, Bill Dalton, Lansing junior, said eBay had not changed the way he and his friends shop. He said that even though they frequently
scanned eBay for Garbage Pail Kids memorabilia and rock climbing equipment, they rarely purchased any items.
Henning said his positive experiences with eBay had changed the way he shopped for bicycles and bike accessories. He said his experience as a salesman
— both on eBay and at Wheeler's — and as a collector had made him a better judge of how much certain items were worth.
"I have trouble buying stuff from shops anymore," Henning said. "With eBay you can get so much stuff that's used but still functional that it's kind of hard to go back to the stores and buy there where it's marked up so much."

Raises
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
Whether and how much to raise wages beyond $6 an hour is at the discretion of the schools and departments, Eakin said, but many students will receive raises of about 50 cents an hour.
students who make between $6 and $10 an hour may also see raises. Eakin said money would be given to the schools and departments to increase student wages.
Molly Bleier, Topeka senior, makes $6 an hour working at
Wheatwavers, the snack shop at the Hawk's Nest in the Kansas Union.
Bleier works about 20 hours a week at Wheatwavers and 20 hours a week at Applebee's, in addition to taking 18 credit hours of classes.
Bleier is able to study during slow times while working at Wheatwavers, which helps her manage her schedule.
"My friends all call me insane," she said. "I don't know how I do it."
Eakin said student employees were vital resources to the
University, and the increased wages would help the University compete with off-campus employers for student workers.
That kind of convenience draws students to on-campus work. Eakin said.
Bedore works overnight hours at the front desk in Templin. Like Bleier, she also studies while at work.
"Even if you're shelving books at the library," Eakin said, "it's better than flipping burgers."

Knisley helped his friend Chris Kennedy, a 2001 KU graduate, get a job with him at AlloFe Solutions in Lawrence. Kennedy lived with Knisley for a year at the fraternity and considered him a close friend. Knisley was going to be a grooms-
"He was just someone that always had a smile on his face," he said. "You always knew if you were going to hang out with him, you were going to have a good time. There's just too many great memories to pick one thing."

William said his Jayhawks would not try to outplay the past.
"I know they have seven of their top eight guys back. So I would expect that they will be very good," Williams said. "They do have that confidence because of the way that they played us last year. Ralph had a game plan that worked very well, and I'm sure he'll look at that and maybe even try to do some other things that take away those things that
"We were 33-4 and went to the Final Four," Williams said. "If I'm thinking we have to go back and prove something, it's sort of silly and also it's a slight towards Holy Cross."
And Williams said the Crusaders were no cupcake.
"It's really an opener that I like, because we really have to play," he said. "If we don't really play, we'll have a long time to practice."
Notes:
Hawkins left last week's 101-
66 Washburn win complaining of
chest pains. After a doctors
evaluation and a running session on the treadmill, Hawkins was cleared to play.
Sophomore forward Wayne Simien, is expected to play after missing the Washburn game. Simien, who scored 26 points in the exhibition win against the EA Sports East All-Stars, has a mild case of tendinitis in his ankle, but Williams said he should be prepared for today's game.
Kansas is 15-1 overall in the Preseason NIT tournament, and the Jayhawks are 12-0 under Williams. The Jayhawks won their last three NIT appearances in 1997,'93 and '89.

KU football is like watching somebody kick a baby.
OK, this is for the moron that said KU has no competition this year. How about No. 1 Arizona, No. 3 Oklahoma, and ranked Texas and god knows, Missouri, and all those schools.
-
I just wanted to say that guy's an idiot, and he needs to read or something.
图
-
Yeah, I was just reading Ryan Wood's comments on Boschee's book in his article in the UDK. And well, he's from Missouri, so he doesn't get to talk in this state. So tell him to go back home, loser.
---
Just a little FYI. You have to buy your tickets for next week's game for the preseason NIT, so uh, you might wanna do that. Thanks, bye.
-
Yeah, I was just wondering who the last team to actually beat KU in an exhibition game was. Thanks.
I'm calling in on the "Weekend offers to do more than attend game," by Ryan Greene. It's obvious this nerd the Kansan has writing the football articles knows nothing about the game. When was the last time Ryan woke up early in the morning and practiced or lifted weights? Or when was the last time he stayed up late at night watching football film and analyzing them? He plays NCAA football on PlayStation a couple of times and thinks he's Vince Lombardi.
Oh yeah, Ryan, here's something you forgot to put on your list of things to do. How about after the game you go to the locker room and mock the football team face to face? That'll give you something to do on the weekends It's called rehab.

Jeff Graves has played just two exhibition games, and already we've got stupid fans calling in saying that he sucks. He might be out of shape, but that doesn't mean he can't ball, so shut your mouth and give him a chance. Out.
You think getting advanced honors. Calculus II is difficult to understand? Try figuring out how to get KU basketball tickets.
-
---
Yeah. I just figured out how I'm gonna get to watch KU basketball this season. I'll just travel to all the away games, because it'll be easier to get tickets there than here.

K-State sucks, Mizzou sucks, and so does the Kansas basketball ticket office.
-
Does anyone else think that Aaron Miles looks like Ja Rule?
-
Hey, I for one am excited for next football season. Good job this year, guys.
-
OK, I was going to wait until the offseason to buy a Muck Fizzou shirt, but I just remembered, oh, Mizzou sucks all year round.
-
Mizzou manages to defy all rational thought. How, you may ask? They win, yet they still suck. Never before has such a possibility existed.
It is reserved for only the worst, for only the sorriest excuse for a school on the face of the planet. Mizzou sucks.

Kansas middle blocker Josiane Lima was named Big 12 Conference volleyball player of the week for the week of Nov. 11 through Nov. 17.
Lima, a freshman from Sao Paulo, Brazil, collected a career-best 20 kills against Texas A&M last Wednesday. She also led the team with 12 kills against Baylor on Saturday.
Lima now has 303 kills on the season, breaking Catalina Suarez's freshman record of 301 in 1985. She is the first Jayhawk to be named conference player of the week since Amanda Reves in 1999.

You know a few people who are determined to prevail. You may even have at least one of them on your side. That would be good, but it isn't necessary. They'll all negotiate when they see that you won't budge.
Gemini (May 21-June 21). Today is a 5.
The discussion, if there is one, will be all about the bottom line. Important people want the facts and nothing else. No fluff. No hype. You'll get further with that stuff tomorrow. Practice.
Cancer (June 22-July 22). Today is an 8.
Friends help you understand what's important and what's not. No point in arguing with a person who'll never change. Save your suggestions for later.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). Today is a 5.
Are you stuck between a rock and a hard place? Is there nothing you can do that will please everybody? Then don't try to please anybody. Wait until tomorrow.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Today is an 8.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22). Today is a 4.
There are considerations to think about. You'll have to give up one thing to get another. Choose the option that gives you more flexibility and more income. If there isn't such an option, create one.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21). Today is a 7.
Looks like you don't get to have it all. You'll have to take either/or. Don't pitch a fit about it. That would only be a waste of time.
You're a rock, an anchor others can depend on. You may feel as if they test you sometimes, but you
always maintain the same basics. Do that again.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Today is a 5.
It's getting easier to express your opinion, but your intended audience isn't quite ready. Make a few notes, maybe an outline. Start designing your next presentation.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan.19). Today is an 8.
Leave your money right where it is. And your heart, too. You'll be coming up with new ideas soon, but for now, savor what you already have.
No matter how good you are, you can't be in two places at the same time. Can you? If so, have your physical body over here, while you check out what's going on over there.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Today is a 5.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). Today is an 8.
You're in one of those awkward phases of research and development when you discover what doesn't work. Don't despair; tomorrow will be much better.

Senior golfer takes swing at PGA tour appearance
By Ryan Greene
rgreene@kansan.com
Kansan Sportwriter
For thousands of KU seniors, May 18, graduation day, signifies the end of college life and entrance into the real world. For Chris Marshall, however, it means the last step towards his lifelong dream of playing professional golf.
Chris Marshall
COLLEGE
CORNERSTONE
Jayhawks ready to cross Crusaders after close call
KING 27 BERKUR 4
Marshall, Stanley senior, completed the fall portion of his final season on the Kansas men's golf team. Not only is he the team's emotional leader and the lone senior, but he has been the backbone for the squad on the course.
Marshall has set an example this season in his senior campaign, showing his teammates how things get done.
"On the course, I just try and lead by example," Marshall said. "I believe that hard work pays off, and I feel like it's not just about how you work at it, it's how you turn the bad days into good days."
Marshall is on target to have the best year of his Kansas career. Last season he finished as a first-team All-Big 12 golfer and an All-American honorable mention. To finish this year's fall season, Marshall notched his first individual win of the season at The Prestige 2002 in La Quinta, Calif. To go along with the victory, he was named the Big 12 golfer of the month for October.
"When we're on the road, I really try and pick the brains of the younger guys," Marshall said. "I give them the advice that I've learned along the road."
The win and accolades have helped Marshall also achieve his new personal best in the latest Golfweek college rankings, placing him at 18th in the country heading into the winter.
Karson File Photo
The leadership role is something that coach Ross Randall says Marshall has assumed with great success both on and off the course this year.
Michael Lee, sophomore guard, drives toward the basket past Washburn freshman guard Jerad Head. The Jayhawks will take on Holy Cross tonight at 8 p.m. at Allen Fieldhouse.
"He's doing fine, and we talked about that during the summer. He wanted to be the leader," Randall said. "If everyone else can work as hard as he does, then everything's going to be okay. His work's paying off."
This spring, Marshall will look to lead the team to the NCAA Finals, which the team missed last season by one stroke. Not only would an appearance there add another honor to his illustrious Jayhawk career, but he wants to make sure he leaves a bigger impression on his teammates through the words of his coach.
"Coach always says if you play well everything takes care of itself, and I believe in that," Marshall said. "The more you're willing to put into it, the more you're going to get out of it."

When Kansas faced Holy Cross in the opening round of last year's NCAA Tournament, Jayhawk fans prayed that divine intervention would not allow Kansas to become the first ever No.1 team to lose to a 16-seeded squad.
Kansas trailed the Patriot League's runner-up 37-35 at halftime. When guard Kirk Hinrich excited the game in the first half with a severe ankle sprain, the "Oh no, not again" sentiments from previous tournaments quickly returned.
"At that point, we were just trying to survive," said Kansas coach Roy Williams. The Jaj Hawks did.
Behind a combined 32 points from former players Drew Gooden and Jeff Boschee, Kansas turned a nail-bitter into a 70-59 victory and advanced to the next round.
"It was a heck of a game," Williams said. "It was one of those games that was in doubt until the last three or four minutes of the game. I was really impressed by how much better I thought they played than we played."
Sophomore Keith Langford said he didn't expect Kansas would need quite
the same crusade in today's 8 p.m. season-opening and Preseason NIT contest at Allen Fieldhouse.
"I think, back in March, we didn't play our best game, and they were having their A-game," Langford said. "This time we are playing them in the Fieldhouse, so we have the advantage."
With four returning starters, 10 letter winners and a 2-0 exhibition record. Holy Cross could come to town with a better team than last year - a scary thought for Williams.
"Not only do they have confidence, they've been successful, they've been to the tournament, they're not in awe of Kansas by any means," he said.
Freshman guard Jeff Hawkins, who watched his team struggle from the sidelines during last year's meeting, said he looked forward to helping his team this time.
SEE BASKETBALL PAGE 6A
"I just know now that I actually have a chance to contribute to the team, so I am really looking forward to it," Hawkins said. "I just don't want the game to be like it was last year, because I know we did not play that well."
Holy Cross coach Ralph Willard will bring the Patriot League's 2003 Preseason Player of the year, Tim Szatko.

Jeff Graves, junior forward, makes a lay-up in Kansas' 101-66 victory over Washburn. Graves shot 100 percent, making all three of his shots, against the Ichabods and posted a total of seven points last Tuesday. He added four rebounds and two blocked shots in the contest. Graves is likely to be Kansas' first forward off the bench in tonight's game against Holy Cross.

Drew Gooden — Memphis Grizzlies
Another week and no victories for Memphis. The Grizzlies tabbed Hube Brown as their head

coach last week after Sidney Lowe resigned, but they still haven't won. Gooden averaged 14 points per game in three contests this past week. He has been
the league's most impressive rookie, leading all rookies in points per game and ranking second in rebounds per game.
Paul Pierce — Boston Celtics
The Celtics six-game winning streak was snapped last week, as the team finished the week with two losses, leaving them at 6-4 overall. Pierce scored 35 points Nov. 11 in a win over Utah, and recorded a double-double with 28 points
and 12 rebounds Saturday in a loss to Milwaukee. Pierce is seventh in the league with 23.6 points per game.

Drew Gooden worked hard here for three years.
He transformed from a freshman with lots of potential and no discipline into the recipient of one of college basketball's greatest honors — the NABC co-player of the year, along with Duke's Jay Williams.
It showed just how special of a player Gooden was. He would have been just the ninth player in the storied history of Kansas basketball to have his jersey hang alongside legends.
When Gooden was honored as being the best collegiate player in the country, coach Roy Williams proudly boasted that Gooden's jersey would hang on the south wall of Allen Fieldhouse.
Williams and two associate athletics directors expanded the criteria. They
Then, Kansas officials got greedy.

wanted more jerseys up there. But they ended up watering down and diluting just how prestigious of an honor it is.
21
Now, the requirements are much easier. Before, one had to be either the national player of the year, MVP of the NCAA tournament or a four-time All-American.
"I like it." Williams said.
Now, a two-time All-American is good enough. Even a one-time All-American will do, as long as you were a consensus pick.
I don't.
COMMENTARY
There's also what I like to call the
"Jacque Vaughn qualifier," which allows a very good (but not legendary) career on the court to combine with a very good (but not unheard of) career in the classroom to reserve your spot.
Vaughn earned GTE Academic All- American of the Year in 1997, qualifying him for immortal status.
His jersey will hang alongside those of mid-90's teammates Raef LaFrentz and
Paul Pierce, who won great individual achievements but whose teams won absolutely nothing.
Others were added with the easier formula. But I'm willing to guess that officials lightened up on the requirements with the intention to get Pierce, LaFrentz and Vaughn up there, and not older legends like Tus Ackerman, Howard Engleman and Al Peterson.
"It's not like we're giving these things away." Williams says.
Nick Collison and Kirk Hinrich have
True, but let's think about it. With all of the great players that Williams brings to KU, with all the tradition, with all the talent that does play and will play here, how long will it be before all those jerseys look like bad wallpaper on Phog's south wall?
an excellent chance to join the list after this season. Wayne Simien could very well be a consensus All-American before he's done. Heck, even Keith Langford and Aaron Miles have an outside shot down the road.
Imagine how cluttered that wall could become in time. There could be 15 more numbers hanging there 35 years from now. How elite would that look? Is there even room?
Poor Drew Gooden. He worked really hard to be one of those elite nine that are now lost in the shuffle.
True, they aren't giving these things away. But they did put them on the sale rack right after Gooden secured his.

Adrienne Hill, Kansas City, Mo. freshman, and 7-year-old Khela Smith of Lawrence share a laugh during a game of bingo at Centennial Elementary School. The two spend an hour each week together as part of" Bigs in Schools,"a mentoring program of Big Brothers/Big Sisters of Douglas County.

Service program connects kids with role models
By Erin Beatty
ebetta@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Even though she's only known her for three weeks, second-grader Khela Smith throws her arms up in excitement when Adrienne Hill walks in the room.
The Kansas City, Mo., freshman, is Khela's Big Sister. For the past few weeks, Hill has been mentoring Khela as part of the "Bigs in Schools" program of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Douglas County.
The program, which began in September, matches adults from the community with children in school. The pairs connect for an hour every week.
Hill meets Khela at Centennial Elementary School every Monday around 4 p.m. The two read, play games and talk.
Hill said she had heard about the program at a volunteer fair on campus, and she signed up because she needed service hours for her sorority, Delta Delta Delta.
The relationship is equally meaningful to Khela, who is 7 years old.
"I love kids, and I've always worked with kids," Hill said. "But this is probably one of the best volunteering experiences I've had. I have so much fun."
"She's fun and she's nice," she said of Hill. "One time I had a fight with one of my friends, and she helped me. She didn't want me to get in trouble."
Khela even named Hill when she listed her siblings: "Justin Smith, Connor Smith, Jeremiah Smith and Adrienne," she said.
Erika Zimmerman, Big Brothers Big Sisters program director, said the program was important because it put caring people into children's lives to help them become competent, healthy adults.
David Pitler, Wichita senior, spends his lunch hour with Marquis, a sixth-grader, every Tuesday at Pinckney Elementary School. They spend lunch and
recess together, usually playing sports.
"You can tell after the first week when you're greeted with a warm smile that you're making a positive influence in the kid's life," Pitler said.
He said he had heard about "Bigs in Schools" from a representative at his fraternity, Pl Kappa Phi. He said he had always wanted to be involved with Big Brothers Big Sisters, but was particularly interested in this program because it wasn't a large time commitment.

'Breakfast for dinner' raises money for café
By George Schulz gschulz@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Social service organizations around Lawrence have reported significant increases in demand for assistance from area residents, including, most recently, Jubilee Café.
"In the last 18 months we've had to double the amount of food we serve because of the economy," said Jameson Jones, Dallas senior. "This forced us to have to figure out new ways
to raise money."
Jubilee Café, which serves food to the homeless and hungry, held the fundraiser "Breakfast for Dinner" last night at the First United Methodist Church, 946 Vermont St.
About 320 tickets were sold at $5 each for a dinner of eggs, bacon, hash browns, biscuits and pancakes. The event generated about $1,600 for Jubilee Café. Jason Fraser, Stillwater, Okla., junior, said one meal sold for the

Local golf clubs fair to women
By Kelly McNearney
kmcnearney@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Hootie Johnson's friends say he is not sexist. Many women are having difficulty believing that.
Johnson, the chairman of the Augusta National Golf Club, is involved in a public debate about allowing women to join his golf club. His definitive answer is no. Not vet. anyway.
His decision came into the national spotlight during the past few months, when Martha Burk, chair of the National Council of Women's Organizations, challenged Johnson to allow women to join his club.
She wants Johnson to allow female members by the time the Masters golf tournament takes place at the course in April. According to Golf World magazine, Burk has influenced big sponsors such as Coca-Cola, IBM and American Express to withdraw funding from the Masters.
"There may well come a day when women will be invited to join our membership," Johnson said, "but that timetable will be ours and not at the point of a bayonet."
So a question emerges. What kind of discrimination do women golfers face in the 21st century?
"As far as Alvamar, they let us do whatever," said Meredith Winkelmann, St. Louis freshman and Kansas golfer. "They make it pretty available to us all the time. It doesn't affect us here in Lawrence."
Winkelmann said the status of playing for a collegiate golf team opened some doors for her and her teammates, but there were plenty of courses where she felt unwelcome.
She said certain clubs in St. Louis disliked women players, and a lot of the older, male members wouldn't let her play through because she was a young woman. She said older men often grumbled at her game pace, calling it too slow.
"I can understand hackers," Winkelmann said. "But just because we don't hit it as far doesn't mean we aren't as talented. It's like saying blacks can't play golf. It's prejudiced."
Kylie Battaglia, Tulsa freshman, was the 2002 Oklahoma state golf champion. She said she faced gender discrimination at courses in her hometown.
"At my course in Tulsa I can't play before 1 o'clock because they don't think women are as good," she said.
Battaglia said after staff at some courses found out how talented she was, they let her play.
She said Augusta National needed to get with the times.
"I think it's a tradition, but it is 2002," she said. "So I think they should let women join now. There are a lot of women golfers who are better than a lot of men."

Incoming freshman in Fall 2003 will have a new way to acquaint themselves with the University of Kansas.
"It will help bridge the gap between high school and college," said Jana Szatkowski, committee member and Edmond, Okla., sophomore. Szatkowski said the council would have about 50 members chosen through an application process. Leadership experience in high school will be an application requirement, Szatkowski said.
leadership training by hosting speakers and luncheons with University officials
The committee is currently establishing by-laws for the council. One would
require students to have a minimum high school grade point average of 3.0 and maintain a 2.5 GPA during their freshman year at KU.
Applications will be mailed to qualified incoming freshman this spring or summer.
Szatkowski said the Freshman Advisory Council would be similar to organizations like the Board of Class Officers and the Freshman Honors Council, but involvement wouldn't be completely scholarship-based.
The committee is modeling the council after councils at the University of Oklahoma and Oklahoma State University, Sztatkowski said. At Oklahoma State, the council is similar to a separate student government for freshmen. Oklahoma's freshman committee hosts leadership seminars, speakers and dinners.
Loren Malone, student body vice president and Senatobia, Miss., senior, said she got the idea for the council after talking to the student body vice president at Oklahoma State University during the
"It will be an outlet for incoming freshman to be directly involved in University events," Malone said.

Diana Hoef, St. Louis junior, said the council would have been helpful to her when she was a freshman.
"It'll help get students involved, and help them meet people at such a huge university." Hoef said.

U.N. inspectors wrap up key Iraq weapons visit
BAGHDAD, Iraq — Chief U.N. weapons inspectors, wrapping up a critical two-day visit, urged Iraq officials yesterday to look again in their nuclear, chemical and biological "stocks and stores" to ensure they have no weapons-making to report.
Iraq's position that it has no weapons of mass destruction "must be convincingly shown by documentation, by evidence," said Hans Blix, head of the U.N. weapons-hunting team. "We don't think that has yet been convincingly done."
Iraqi officials confirmed they would meet a U.N. deadline and file by Dec. 8 a comprehensive list of nuclear, chemical and biological programs, including any meant to develop weapons.
The two U.N. officials offered a "light at the end of the tunnel" for Iraq, however, saying that if the Baghdad government cooperates fully with their inspections, they might be able to report in about one year that it has compiled with Security Council requirements
Kuwait-based U.S. forces prepare for war on Iraq
UDAIRA RANGE, Kuwait — Apache helicopter-fired Hellfire missiles and high-explosive artillery shells rocked the desert just miles from the Iraqi border yesterday as U.S. forces prepared for a possible war on Iraq.
If Iraq obstructs the U.N. weapons inspectors' work trying to track down Iraqi President Saddam Hussein's alleged weapons of mass destruction, U.S. soldiers on maneuvers in northern Kuwait may be called on by President Bush to attack Saddam's forces and topple the Iraqi leader.
While all hinges on the results of inspections led by chief U.N. weapons inspector Hans Blix, U.S. forces based in Kuwait say they are ready to wage
war on Saddam's regime if Bush gives the green light.
Oil tanker breaks in two; dangerous spill expected
MADRID, Spain — An oil tanker carrying 20 million gallons of fuel oil broke in two and sank yesterday in the Atlantic Ocean, threatening a spill nearly twice as big as the Exxon Valdez's and an environmental catastrophe along a scenic Spanish coastline.
The hope was that the oil would sink and harden in waters more than two miles deep before it could inflict disaster and engulf the area's rich fishing grounds. But it has already soiled 125 miles of Spanish coastline, and its highly viscous and toxic load is far bigger than the 10.92 million gallons dumped off Alaska by the Exxon Valdez in 1989. As the Bahamas-flagged tanker Prestige sank, it leaked some oil but it was not clear how much.
Rumsfeld: western nations must work to combat crime
Hemisphere security depends on eliminating the havens that international criminals use, Rumsfeld said at the defense ministers' meeting. He left the meeting Tuesday and stopped Tuesday night in Washington on the way to a NATO summit in Prague, Czech Republic.
SANTIAGO, Chile — Other Western Hemisphere nations must control their territories better to combat drug trafficking, terrorism and other crime that thrives in ungoverned areas, Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld told a regional security meeting yesterday.
"In this hemisphere, narcoterrorists, hostage takers and arms smugglers operate in ungoverned areas, using them as bases from which to destabilize democratic governments," Rumsfeld said. "Elected governments have the responsibility to exercise sovereign authority, conferred at the ballot box, throughout their national territories."

KU historian to speak to White House senior staff
By Kyle Ramsey
kramsey@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The director of the Dole Institute of Politics and presidential historian, Richard Norton Smith, will speak to 60 members of the White House senior staff tomorrow as part a periodic lecture series at the White House.
Smith will discuss 10 rules by which historians judge presidents to be successes or failures. Smith has written biographies of presidents Hoover and Washington.
"We've had a tremendous response to Richard since we announced he was coming," said Kasey Pipes, associate director of strategic initiatives at the White House. "People view him as one of America's greatest
historians. We're glad to have him."
The lecture series features a guest speaker once or twice a month to talk about issues pertinent to the job responsibilities of the White House staff, Pipes said.
This is the first time Smith has participated in the series.
Smith has gained national recognition as a presidential historian through his appearances on C-SPAN and the PBS television show News Hour with Jim Lehrer.
"It's great for KU and great for the institute that we have a director of that caliber," said Erik Nelson, associate director of the Dole Institute.
Smith, who is in New York interviewing for his latest biography, was not available for com
ment yesterday.
Tonight, Smith will speak at a National Press Club roast for his friend Brian Lamb, founder of the C-SPAN cable network. Lamb spoke Sept. 17 at KU. He is the recipient of the press club's Fourth Estate Award.
The annual award honors the recipient's lifetime achievements in American journalism. Previous recipients include Walter Cronkite, David Broder, Helen Thomas and Theodore White.
Last year's recipient was syndicated columnist Robert Novak. Novak came to KU last week as the speaker at the annual Anderson Chandler Lecture, which was sponsored by the School of Business.

Smokeout rewards quitters

The reward for quitting smoking during tomorrow's 26th annual Great American Smokeout will stretch beyond health benefits.
Mark Armstrong (right), Mission senior, takes smoke break break outside the Art & Design building while Josh Adams, Prairie Village, junior, supplies a light for Nick Economidis, Kansas City, Mo. senior. When asked about quitting for the Great American Smoke-Out, Adams said, "I'm going to keep on smokin."
Smokers who surrender their cigarettes can register for prizes. University of Kansas peer educators and a health, sports and exercises peer training class will be at the information booth at Wescoe Beach from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. There will be a table for smokers to surrender their cigarettes.
The American Cancer Society recognizes every third Thursday of November as the Great American Smokeout.
The society estimates 47 million adults in the U.S. are smokers.
The society wants smokers to reevaluate their habits tomorrow, but some smokers say quitting isn't as easy as throwing out the
cigarettes for one day.
Alex Binci, Naples, Italy, senior, said he wouldn't be kicking the smoking habit tomorrow, although he was trying to eventually quit.
"As a smoker, I hate when people tell me, 'smoking's bad for you,'" he said. "If someone really wants to quit, they should just quit."
Binci said he had quit buying cigarettes to start the quitting process. He said other people would be donating their cigarettes to him tomorrow instead of the Smokeout table.
"I bum enough people's cigarettes — that's my donation," he said.
KU graduate uses college experience as basis for novels
—Edited by Melissa Shuman
By Louise Stauffer
Istauer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
University of Kansas graduate Steve Monroe has published two novels, both influenced by his time spent in Lawrence.
Monroe graduated in 1985. A major in general studies, he said his main activity in college was hanging out at Bullwinkle's bar. But that's not where the influence for his stories came from.
Monroe said his college years and his reporting experience as a freelance sportswriter for The
46 CHICAGO
STEVE MONROE
A NOTE
Daily News of Johnson County influenced his writing.
His fascination with KU basketball led him to
use the 1957 NCAA basketball championship between Kansas and North Carolina as the setting for his first novel, '57, Chicago which was published in April 2001. Though a basketball game
is the background of '57, Chicago, the story focuses on a bookie, fight promoter and boxer.
"I wanted to put a bookie through hell," Monroe said, reasoning that the triple overtime factor in the game would do it. Wilt Chamberlain and the Jayhawks are mentioned several times throughout the book.
Monroe's agents are selling movie rights to his two books, '57,
Chicago and '46, Chicago. The second book, '46, Chicago, was
published in August.
It is about a cop who survives World War II and later finds himself suspended from the police force and hired to investigate a kidnapping. Movie rights to his third book, So Smooth, which is not yet published, are also being sold. Monroe is working on a sequel to '46, Chicago that will be based in Kansas City during June 1946.
His books have been reviewed by USA Today, Esquire and The Chicago Tribune. The Chicago Tribune compared the dialogue to that of The Sopranos television show.
Edward Barlow, assistant to Monroe's agent, David Halpern, at
The Robbins Office in New York City, said Monroe's writing style was similar to that of James Ellroy.
"He's very gifted at description, and can be very funny at times," Barlow said.
Monroe did not begin working on '57, Chicago until he was in his early 30s. Being a full-time real estate agent in Chicago, he said he had to make time to write. Monroe, now 40, said he couldn't have written a novel while in college because he needed to gain knowledge from personal experiences.
"You need to get out and live
your life first, then write about what you know," he said. "You don'tknow anythingwhen you're in college."
Although Monroe was only a sports reporter in college, he said the experience helped him set deadlines for writing books and organizing his time.
"You can't worry about critics," he said.
Because his sports writing angered people at times, Monroe said he was able to accept criticism when it came to his novel as well.

FACE-OFF
Who is king of the road on campus?
Face-Off is a weekly project of the Kansas 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.
Cars endanger lives of walking multitude
Too often, pedestrians get a bad rap.
Accustomed to walking on a campus with restricted traffic during the day, pedestrians appear to have no fear.
This is communicated not so much in the confrontational, Midnight Cowboy style of "I'm walkin' here," but instead can be observed in the pedestrian's unbreakable stride and piercing glare.
However, on campus, pedestrians do deserve the most consideration and courtesy. Cars and their drivers pose much more of a danger or threat to our safety and well-being.
KU is a pedestrian-friendly campus without pedestrian-friendly traffic.
Sure, pedestrians do stupid things; darting out between parked cars, walking really, really slowly across busy Jayhawk Boulevard, and strolling out in front of buses. But, there are far more smart pedestrians than there are stupid ones.
Drivers must be faulted for not wholly understanding a four-way stop, the purpose of a crosswalk or the concept of common courtesy.
Pedestrians who walk on campus at night are both a little more observant and possibly a little more scared—not because of worries about crime, but because they have to fend for themselves
on a campus taken over by cars.
With awkward on-campus intersections like those of 15th Street and Angel Road, 15th Street and Naismith Drive, and anywhere around the Chi Omega fountain, pedestrians often find it difficult and dangerous to cross the street because of unviolating traffic.
Those one- and two- ton hunks of plastic and metal and those who drive them pose more of a threat to the general safety and well-being of the public.
If at times pedestrians seem aggressive or stupid, it's because they have to actively assert their rights because cars aren't willing to let them cross the street.
This needless aggravation can be easily solved.
At the same time that pedestrians need to be more aware of both their actions and their surroundings, drivers also need to be much more cognizant and considerate of pedestrians.
Drivers need to be alert, especially when cruising through campus at night, and should be considerate of those students patiently waiting to cross.
Eventually, drivers will have to get out of their cars and be pedestrians too.
Lauren Stewart dissenting
THESE DAMN DUCKS
ALWAYS THINK THEY HAVE
THE RIGHT OF WAY!

Pedestrians cause more problems than cars on University streets
Mark Lyda/Kansar
Ah, life at a university. A place where a student can blindly walk across any and all intersections and know cars will screech to a halt and quiver in fear at his aura of invincibility.
Students obliquely walk everywhere and anywhere without caring about their surroundings. As soon as students arrive within the perimeter of this University, the laws of physics cease to exist.
However, it is troubling that, if a pedestrian gets hit, no matter how stupid he is being, it's at least partly the driver's fault.
Well here's a tip: When we match up a 150-pound person and a 3,000-pound car, the barreling hunk of cold steel is going to win every time. When we match up that same pedestrian to a 10-ton bus the results are going to be far more gruesome.
True, pedestrians do have the right of way.
Perhaps that moral victory will raise the spirits of a now former pedestrian with two broken legs and an internal hemorrhage.
The problem of dangerous pedestrians is easy to fix. Some of you may recall your kindergarten teachers covering this same material.
PERSPECTIVES
First, students need to learn to look for cars before crossing the street. How many times should a pedestrian look?
Probably more than the campus average of zero. Perhaps more than one way as well.
Looking both ways before crossing the street will help pedestrians create a safer environment on this campus for them
selves and the drivers of vehicles.
There are other things that can be done as well. For instance, pedestrians can start crossing at the crosswalks.
As a reminder, those are the spaces of the street covered with big, white lines. Those lines mean that it is safe to cross in that area.
They are often associated with stop signs, so drivers will be expecting to stop in those places.
If pedestrians learn to look both ways and use the crosswalks they won't have to worry about surprising drivers and will increase their chances of surviving college.
Dan Osman for the editorial board
More funds should be devoted to environmental research
The latest technical advancements in the fields of pharmacy, wireless communications and the evolution of the Internet had their humble beginnings in small labs of elite universities, including ours. And perhaps it was never imagined in those days that these experiments would later revolutionize the way the world lives.
Today, I see that we have an opportunity to break with the past once more.
A large majority of scientists think that the current global warming due to an increase in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is caused primarily by the use of fossil fuels such as oil, coal and gas.
We eagerly wait for significant research outcomes in the fields of alternate and renewable sources of energy and efficiency. More than an opportunity, I see a necessity. There are impending dangers if this is not taken seriously.
GUEST COMMENTARY
Human activities are thought responsible for the adding up of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide. I have read articles and looked at Web Sites that try to suggest that global warming is a myth.
D. N. Ramanathan
I did not find anything impressive because the overwhelming results are in opposition to such theories.
According to National Academy of Sciences, the Earth's surface temperature rose 1 degree Fahrenheit in the past century. Numerous studies have shown a decrease in the thickness of ice cover over the poles. Global warming is responsible for a rise in sea level, change in precipitation, effects on human health and ecosystems.

Studies on the "Phoenix Brown cloud" and the huge "Asian Brown cloud (ABC)" reveal threats. A brown
Talking about fossil fuels, how can we forget the immediate and enormous air pollution?
cloud is a dense blanket of pollution which can be two to three miles thick.
The ABC has already resulted in erratic weather, causing floods and famines in parts of South Asia
The health hazards are numerous contributing to an average increase in respiratory ailments. This leads to higher mortality rates from heart and lung diseases.
Research at KU and many other institutions has shown that the formation of brown clouds has a global affect causing drastic climate changes.
The requirement of global participation has been seen long before and led to the formation of United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCC) in 1994.
The participating countries in UNFCC adopted the Kyoto protocol in 1997. The Kyoto climate-change treaty entails certain commitments on the part of developed countries to reduce the emission of green house gases.
The U.S. has recently opted out of Kyoto treaty because it is thought that complying with the treaty would harm the economy.
While we await the advent of new technologies and protocols, a good step in this direction we can take is to start energy conservation.
The California Energy Commission says that it has achieved 5 to 10 percent savings in energy consumption through conservation. Much of it has been attributed to an increase of awareness
among users
Buying a fuel-efficient car, maintaining it properly and using heat and electricity judiciously are a few conservation tips we all can follow. This would also help us to bring down our energy bills.
It is good to know that the University is considering using wind energy for all the energy needs on the Hill.
University research labs have always been a valuable source of information
I feel it's high time to maximize funding for basic research in advanced energy technologies at KU and other universities.
It is sure to revolutionize the way Americans live, not to mention the change it would bring in the foreign policies of all the countries of the globe.

I have a great idea for an experiment. It's called the resident exchange program.Take about five girls from GSP/Corbin and move them over to Hash. Take about five people from Hashinger and move them over to GSP/Corbin, and see who survives longest without being injured by others.

Junior Beau Hancock and senior Deanna Doyle rehearse their duet "Margartik" choreographed by Gerel Hilding. The two will be performing with The University Dance Company in its full concert this Thursday and Friday at the Lied Center.
Almost an entire semester's worth of work for members of the University Dance Company will culminate with its Fall Concert Program at the end of the week.
The program consists of six dance performances choreographed by faculty from the department of music and dance, and performed by students in the school and in the University Dance Company. The featured event, Choreographic Offering, by José Limón, was choreographed by guest artist Sarah Stackhouse of the Limón Company.
The University Dance Company Fall Concert Program is on Thursday and Friday evenings at 7:30. The events will be held in the Lied Center.
The program features modern styles of dance meant for interpretation, said Kendra Hollman, the president of the University Dance Company.
"Modern dance is for everyone. Everyone can enjoy it," Hollman, Lincoln, Neb., senior said.
The modern dance genre allows the dancer more freedom of movement, and that opens the

"This is the main thing we build up for every semester," Hollman said. "If you are a dance major, you definitely want to be in this concert." The program is very athletic, and the dancers need to develop their strength over the semester.
She said it wasn't the physical aspect that made the program difficult; it was the amount of prepa-
But members of the company have a positive outlook despite the time and physical strain of the program.
"If someone said, 'My foot is broken,' they would say 'It's fine, keep going!'" said Ellie Goodie-Averill, vice president of the University Dance Company.
Tickets are on sale at the Lied Center, Murphy Hall and SUA box offices. Student and senior tickets are $5, and public tickets are $7.

Fine dining declining with Bleujacket's adieu
By Nathan Dayani
ndayani@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Fine dining is becoming extinct in downtown Lawrence.
Carmen Anello, assistant manager at the restaurant, said the business initially had success with its local patronage and a steady flow of customers from Topeka and Kansas City. However, the restaurant's bread and
The Bleujacket, 811 New Hampshire Drive, closed Saturday night after nearly two years serving French cuisine to local and area customers. It is the third fine-dining restaurant in Lawrence to close this year.
outer - its Lawrence-based clientele - stopped coming when the national economy began to slow down last fall.
"We had a lot of support before fine dining became too much of a luxury with the economy," said Anello, a Lawrence resident.
KU students went to the restaurant for anniversaries, dates, graduates and greek events, but Anello said the restaurant catered to an older crowd. She said its owners and staff members thought the business would flourish despite the town's college atmosphere.
"They understood that this was a college town, but they noticed that there was a lot of parents,
alumni and KU staff members who lived in the area," Anello said.
Carol Holstead, associate professor of journalism, said the restaurant was too expensive to gain enough local patronage.
"I liked it a lot. The food was very good, but it was expensive for this town," Holstead said. "I ate there once with a friend and we spent $100, but we can't do that every week."
Like the Bleujacket, Fifi's Restaurant and Prairie Fire; An American Bistro, two other fine-dining establishments in Lawrence, have closed in the past year. With these closings, as well as menu changes at other established local restaurants, Hol-
stead said Pachamama's, 2161 Quail Creek Drive, was the only fine dining restaurant left in town.
Stephane Dragoje, lecturer in French and Italian, said he enjoyed the Bleujacket's food, intimate atmosphere and knowledgeable servers.
"Every time I asked about the way things were prepared, they were able to answer my questions very easily," said Dragoje, who is from Besançon, France.
"This was a great place," Anello said. "I don't think anyone really thought it was actually going away."

Budget review team prepares for meeting
The Associated Press
TOPEKA, Kan. — A team appointed by Gov-elect Kathleen Sebelius to review public safety agencies planned its first meeting, and its chairman said he wanted the discussions to be open.
Sebelius, a Democrat, and her aides suggested last week that some meetings of the five government review teams she had appointed would be closed, when those teams discussed what recommendations they would make to her.
Sen. David Adkins, R-Leawood, leader of the governor elect's team on public safety agencies, said he wanted its meetings to be open.
"My hope is that the deliberations and considerations of the team that I'm heading will be open to public scrutiny and public participation," Adkins said.
His team is scheduled to meet at 10 a.m. today.
Meetings for the four other teams have not been announced.
Adkins lost the Republican primary in August to Attorney General-elect Phill Kline. Among the agencies Adkins' team will review is the Kansas Bureau of Investigation, which the attorney general oversees.
Adkins said that Kline promised as a candidate to shift $500,000 from the attorney general's budget to the KBI. Kline said he wasn't bothered by Adkins' review.
"I look forward to working with him and I'm anxious to
hear the governor-elect's ideas," Kline said. "The more brains on the job, the better."
Meanwhile, Sebelius spoke during the Kansas Farm Bureau's annual meeting in Manhattan. She promised that her new secretary of agriculture would coordinate rural development efforts and promote the state's agricultural products.
State officials and university economists have projected a $310 million deficit on June 30 from the current, $4.4 billion budget and have estimated the gap between expected revenues and spending commitments to be another $858 million for fiscal year 2004.
Sebelius and outgoing Gov. Bill Graves, a Republican, have yet to decide how to prevent the deficit in the current budget.
Graves has said he hopes they'll draft a joint plan, but Sebelius continued yesterday to insist that she was focused on preparing a fiscal 2004 budget.
During her gubernatorial campaign, Sebelius promised a top-to-bottom review of state government.
The review was her answer to questions about how she'd handle the state's budget problems and whether she would increase taxes.
She announced the appointment of her five teams last week and said they would have discussions in private so that team members could be more frank. She also said her aides wouldn't release a schedule of private meetings.
H&R Block to settle on lawsuit
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — H&R Block said Tuesday it will settle a class action lawsuit filed in Texas that accused it of taking kickbacks from banks over loans made to clients awaiting tax refunds.
The proposed settlement, which still must be approved by a Texas judge who has criticized the company, would provide customers with coupons for tax services, software and a book but no cash.
The settlement could cost H&R Block $262 million, but only if 100 percent of the people affected redeemed all the coupons they received every year for five years, company spokeswoman Linda McDougall said.
Judge J. Manuel Banales of Kleberg County, Texas, had written attorneys earlier this month
saying he planned to order Block to repay $75 million for receiving undisclosed fees from banks in connection with the "refund anticipation loans."
Under the program, a customer owed a tax refund could receive most of the money in two to three business days with a loan from H&R Block's banking partners, with interest rates frequently exceeding 100 percent.
Plaintiffs have characterized the banks' fee to Block as a kickback.
The Texas lawsuit covers Texas customers who got the loans from 1992 to 1996; Block began disclosing the fees after 1996.
An attorney for the Texas plaintiffs, Edward Carstarphen did not immediately return a phone call from The Associated Press.
But one of the lead attorneys in
a federal class action lawsuit filed in Illinois said the settlement proves that H&R Block is "running scared" and is seeking to avoid a public trial over the refund program.
"Potentially, these cases are going to cost H&R Block hundreds of millions of dollars," said Michael B. Hyman of Chicago.
In the federal case, Block had agreed to pay $25 million in a settlement covering 17 million customers who borrowed against their tax refunds between Jan. 1, 1987, and Oct. 26, 1999.
In April, a federal appeals court in Illinois overturned that settlement, saying it did not do enough to ensure that the firm's customers were adequately compensated.
That ruling allowed the Texas case to proceed and on Nov. 7, Banales wrote that Block should
have disclosed the fees because it had a fiduciary duty to its customers, meaning it is supposed to look out for their financial best interests.
Block denied that it has such a duty and last week said it would appeal the planned order.
Block, which continued to deny liability, said that as part of the settlement, attorneys for the plaintiffs will withdraw all similar cases pending in Texas.
Shares of Block gained $2.35 or 6.7 percent, to close Tuesday at $37.53 on the New York Stock Exchange.
As part of the settlement, Block agreed to provide the clients with five $20 coupons that can be used for tax preparation and planning services over the next five years. They'll also get coupons for tax software and for a new tax planning book retailing at $14.95.
Westar CEO faces more legal woes
The Associated Press
TOPEKA, Kan. — Westar Energy chief executive David Wittig and a former bank officer pleaded innocent yesterday to illegally steering a $1.5 million loan for Wittig into a real estate investment for the banker.
Wittig received the loan last year from the Capital City Bank in Topeka, with the help of former president Clinton Odell Weidner II. A federal grand jury indictment alleges instead of using the money as documents suggested he would, Wittig turned it over to Weidner, who bought into an exclusive housing development planned outside Scottsdale, Ariz.
The charges against the two include money laundering, filing false documents, conspiracy and misapplication of bank funds. The indictment does not say why Wittig would allow the money to go to Weidner.
Wittig is on administrative leave without pay from his position as Westar's chairman, chief executive officer and president. Weidner left the Topeka bank earlier this year.
The allegations are not related to Westar's operations. Westar is the state's largest electric company, providing power to 647,000 customers, but it also has nonutility interests, most notably its 88 percent share of the Protection One security alarm firm.
The two men had their first appearance yesterday in U.S. District Court in Topeka to hear the charges against them and enter their innocent pleas.
U. S. Magistrate Judge James O'Hara scheduled their trial for Jan. 22, but attorneys for Wittig and Weidner said they needed more time to prepare an adequate defense.
Neither Wittig nor Weidner had any comment after the 45-minute hearing, and their attorneys declined comment. During the hearing, O'Hara reminded the two defendants that any statements could become part of prosecutors' case.
"You ought to be very careful about what you say and to whom you say it, both inside and outside the courtroom," O'Hara said from the bench.
The grand jury indictment alleges that Weidner helped Wittig increase his credit limit at Weidner's bank from $3.5 million to $5 million.
It also alleges that Weidner and Wittig said in documents that the money would be used by Wittig for business investments, stock purchases and the remodeling of Wittig's home.
Instead, according to the indictment, the money went to Weidner so that he could obtain a 50 percent interest in the Arizona

Death penalty possible for killer
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — A man was convicted of murder yesterday and could get the death penalty in the slayings of five Wendy's employees who were herded into a restaurant freezer and shot execution-style during a holdup.
The jury will begin hearing evidence today on whether John Taylor, 38, should die by injection.
Taylor's accomplice in the 2000 robbery, Craig Godineaux, 32, pleaded guilty earlier this year. Because he is mentally retarded,
he was not eligible for the death penalty. He is serving five life sentences.
Seven people in all were shot in the holdup in Queens; two of them survived.
Prosecutors said it was Taylor who plotted the murders and that he shot two of the victims himself.
Jacquoinie Johnson, 20, one of the survivors, testified in haunting detail how the massacre unfolded as the restaurant staff was closing for the night.
Defense attorney Kelley Sharkey argued Taylor was a remorseful participant in a robbery gone awry and that Godineaux was a violent criminal who "carries his IQ score around like an insurance policy."
The restaurant manager ordered everyone downstairs over an intercom, Godineaux bound and gaged everyone with duct tape, and Taylor ordered them into the walk-in freezer. There, Godineaux pulled plastic bags over their heads, and the massacre began.
Taylor and Godineaux made off with about $2,400 but were caught a day later.
Johnson testified that he was able to see out of one eye from under the plastic bag, and watched Taylor shoot one of the victims.
Johnson turned his head away as he heard two more shots fired. When he looked again, he saw Taylor hand the gun to Godineaux and tell him to "finish the job."
New York State reinstated capital punishment in 1995 and has five people on death row — none of them from New York City. No one has been executed in the state since 1963.
Businessman charged for hiring illegal aliens
The Associated Press
ORLANDO, Fla. — A successful Palestinian-American businessman who owns T-shirt stores, gift shops and restaurants in Orlando has been jailed on charges of hiring illegal aliens.
Law enforcement agents last week raided several shops owned by Jesse Issa Maali, 57. The government said Maali, might flee the country. He is charged with hiring dozens of illegal aliens and creating shell companies to disguise payments to the workers.
A federal magistrate was expected to decide yesterday whether to allow Maali's release on bail. A two-day hearing was
delayed by a bomb threat called into the federal courthouse in the morning. Nothing was found.
The U.S. government indicted Maali and four business associates last week. They were charged with immigration violations, conspiracy to commit money laudering and conspiracy to commit violations of immigration laws.
None of the charges accuse them of terrorist ties.
Federal prosecutor Cynthia Collazo said Maali, a naturalized U.S. citizen, should remain jailed because he has money and property overseas and has provided financial support to terrorist groups.
Comet paints the sky, stargazers brave the cold
The Associated Press
Raleigh, N.C. — Amateur and professional stargazers alike were treated to a spectacular light show early yesterday as meteors blazed colorful trails across the night sky.
Most of Europe and many parts of North America were obscured by clouds, but it was clear enough at Raleigh, N.C., that Debbie Moose and her husband, Rob Vatz, saw 20 to 25 meteors in 45 minutes.
"Some were little pinpoints,
but some were really bright, like flaming golf balls," Moose said.
The celestial display was the annual appearance of the Leonid meteor shower, caused when the Earth passes through a trail of comet debris. The Leonids are named for the constellation Leo that marks the direction from which the meteors appear to arrive.
It will be nearly a century before the Leonids will produce such a big swarm of shooting stars again.
Nebraska clinic may be to blame for virus outbreak
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — At least 81 people treated at a Nebraska cancer clinic have tested positive for hepatitis C in an outbreak that may have been caused by a contaminated vial of medicine, health officials said yesterday.
Dr. Tom Safranek, the state epidemiologist, said poor medical practices at Dr. Tahir Javed's clinic in Fremont may be to blame.
The patients, who were suffering from cancer or blood disorders, were treated at the clinic in 2000 and 2001. Just before it shut down last month, the clinic advised 612 patients to get tested and nearly 500 did.
It is possible that a clinic worker used a syringe to administer medicine to a patient who had hepatitis C, then drew more medicine from the same vial for the patient with the same syringe, Safranek said.
Doing that would contaminate the rest of the medicine in the vial, and infect other patients given the drug, he said.
Medical charts are being examined, and current and past employees of the clinic are being questioned by state health officials.
notified the problem in September by an Omaha doctor who had two patients with hepatitis C who also were patients at Javed's clinic.
In all, 485 people sought tests after receiving letters from the clinic. Of the others, some chose not to be tested and others may have been tested by their own doctors.
State health officials were
The state said it was not aware of any deaths among the patients with hepatitis C. Doctors said they do not know what effect the virus would have on the clinic's already ailing patients.
Hepatitis C is a viral infection of the liver and the most common blood borne infection in the United States. People who have been infected may experience fatigue, loss of appetite and yellowing of the skin. The virus can eventually lead to cirrhosis or cancer of the liver.
Health officials are confident no other patients have to be contacted because of changes made at the clinic in 2001, Safranek said, declining to elaborate.
In Oklahoma, a hepatitis C outbreak that infected more than 50 people this year was blamed on a nurse anesthetist who told health officials he reused needles and syringes.

fundraiser would create about four meals for Lawrence residents in need of food assistance.
He said that although the demand for food had increased, Jubilee Cafe's income levels, including money collected from fundraisers held two or three times a year, had stayed about the same.
"We spend money as we have it," Fraser said. "We've learned how to stretch dollars. We buy everything in bulk now."
Fraser said the program spent about $250 to $300 a week serving about 300 Lawrence residents.
Jubilee Cafe serves breakfast from 7 to 9 every Tuesday and Friday morning. The program is like a restaurant in that people are waited on by volunteers.
"It emphasizes serving people with dignity and respect," said Margaret Perkins-MeGuinness, Lawrence junior. "We don't ask people to wait in line for food. We serve it to them."
Perkins-McGuinness said the program fostered a deeper relationship between student volunteers and area residents who relied on food donations from liliele Café.
Jubilee Café was founded in October 1994 by Canterbury House, 1116 Louisiana St.
The program is sponsored by the Episcopal Campus Ministry and staffed by volunteer students and members of organizations, including the campus-based Center for Community Outreach.

Tenn. auto accident injures two children
The Associated Press
"A car jumped the curb and hit some kids lined up outside the school waiting for their parents to pick them up," said Teresa Taylor, watch commander for the Memphis Fire Department.
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — An 81-year-old woman driving to an elementary school to pick up her granddaughter plowed into nine children and a teacher's aide outside the school yesterday, critically injuring two of the students, sheriff's officials said.
The collision took place about 3:30 p.m. outside Chimneyrock Elementary School.
A 5-year-old boy was in critical condition and a 5-year-old girl was in serious condition after being upgraded from critical,
spokeswoman Sarah Burnett said. Two 9-year-old girls also were in serious condition and a third was released.
Other children were listed in good condition or had been released from other hospitals. The 41-year-old teacher's aide was expected to be released yesterday, a spokeswoman for Methodist Healthcare-German-town said.
No charges were filed against the driver, but authorities were interviewing her, said Steve Shular, a spokesman with the Shelby County Sheriff's Department.
Survey says farms not focus of legislators
"We're trying, with a lot of compassion, to talk with her on what might have occurred," Shular said.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. Despite acknowledging the decline of family farms, state lawmakers across the nation have not spent much time working to help them, according to a survey released yesterday.
The woman was on some medications and blood tests will be conducted.
Rural issues ranked far behind urban and suburban concerns among lawmakers from all states, as budget shortfalls and other pressing priorities threaten to halt new rural initiatives.
State lawmakers also said they
did not see agriculture as the larger solution to rural America's economic problems, according to the "Perceptions of Rural America" survey of 1,030 of the nation's 7,000 state legislators by the WK. Kellogg Foundation.
Although half of those surveyed perceive that they personally deal frequently with rural problems, only 8 percent said such issues were given higher priority than those facing cities and suburbs.
Half reported that they never deal with rural issues, or deal with them infrequently.
"In the competition for increasingly scarce state dollars, rural-policy advocates may find it harder than ever to get legislative attention," said Rick Foster, vice president for rural development at the foundation, based in Battle Creek, Mich.
Respondents said the biggest problem facing rural Americans was a lack of opportunity for young people, followed in order by the decline of the family farm, lack of access to health care, low wages and poor quality of education.
But the list of rural problems
does not match lawmakers' estimation of legislative work devoted to rural issues.
The survey was mailed to 5,000 of 7,000 legislators, with additional surveys mailed to legislators in states with significant rural populations.
Study questions for-profit dialysis centers
When asked about rural problems that have attracted the most attention, 84 percent said quality of education, followed by the environment, access to technology, access to health care and access to transportation. Economic issues scored much lower.
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — Kidney failure patients treated at for-profit dialysis centers have higher death rates than those who undergo treatment at nonprofit ones, according to an analysis that blames financial pressures.
Pooling results from eight studies of U.S. dialysis centers from 1973 through 1997, the researchers found an 8 percent increased risk of death among
patients who received dialysis at for-profit centers.
That works out to about 2,500 extra deaths nationwide each year among patients treated at for-profit centers, which are the most common type in the United States, the researchers said.
Dr. Sidney Wolfe of the consumeradvocacygroup PublicCitizen said the study echoed his own research linking for-profit health maintenance organiza
tions with lower-quality medical care.
The study appears in Wednesday's journal of the American Medical Association.
The analysis was conducted by researchers at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, McMaster researcher Dr. P.J. Devereaux said "economic realities" facing for-profit centers may explain the results.
"They have to generate money to satisfy shareholders," and to do
so may end up cutting costs, he said.
That may result in fewer skilled staffers and shorter dialysis times, Devereaux said.
Dr. Paul Scheel, a Johns Hopkins University kidney specialist who was not involved in the research, called it poppycock.
"It tells you how dialysis was practiced in the early 1980s and '90s and has absolutely zero relevance today," he said.

Recruiting tactics earn Mangino nickname
Reporters discovered Saturday why people have given him the nickname "Bear."
Bear, a.k.a. first-year football coach Mark Mangino, cemented that notoriety in the post-game aftermath of Saturday's 55-20 season-ending loss. When a reporter asked Bear when he'd take his first break, he snapped back with a reply that drew a collective, "Huh?" from the media room.
"I'll take a couple of days off at the end of February," he said straight-faced, without hesitating.
Whoa, wait a minute. February? As in the month after January? As in the time more than 90 days from now? Reporters expected to hear Turkey Day. Or Christmas. Or New Year's. But no. Bear says February. That is remarkable.
You can't blame him for showing this kind of vigor - Kansas did drop 10 games and embarrassed itself on a weekly basis. But seriously, how can he cope without taking some time away from the program, even if just for a couple of davs?
It's his dream that keeps the wheels rolling. It's the task of selling the dream to Joe Blow recruit that drives Bear.
On Dec. 1, the recruiting contact period begins. It must be a grind. Random airports leading Bear on flights to random cities all over the nation to meet even more random Joe Blows. All this in the name of the dream.
This is where Bear must shine. He must pull a Jerry Maguire. You know, all that "King of the housecalls, master of the living room," stuff. That has to be Bear. Bear must rule Joe Blow's living room.
"It's a hard sell, but a recruit could come here and maybe play right away rather than sit and wait for three, maybe four years with a program that's established," Bear said. "We've got an opportunity for a lot of players to come in here and play, and a lot of players want to do that."
Bear's dream of leading Kansas to Big 12 prominence should influence many recruits. He will tell them they can build a program and leave their stamp on Lawrence. Bear can promise the chance to be a Jayhawk football forefather. Why wait your turn? Play now, he will emphasize.The talent cupboard has been bare for years in Kansas' program. Last week, Bear stressed the coaching staff was chasing talent for every position on the field. He is right there.
Kansas returns a versatile quarterback in Bill Whittemore, a gritty running back in Clark Green and several other talented freshmen, such as wide receiver Mark Simmons and linebackers Nick Reid and Kevin Kane. That is it. That is all. The team needs to improve its speed, quickness, strength and morale. That starts with recruiting and finding talent.
Bear will go the Bill Snyder route and scour the junior college ranks for some immediate help. He will also chase some the nation's finest and pitch the dream.
Bear could probably find ten recruits talented enough to claim starting jobs next year. They are out there, and it is possible they could end up in Jayhawk blue next year.
Because this Bear refuses to hibernate.

Sometimes all it takes is a little friendly nudging.
"Keith! Come on!" That was all senior Kirk Hinrich had to yell to spark Keith Langford and the rest of the Jayhawks in last night's game against Holy Cross. After a wave of sloppy basketball followed by remarkable playmaking, Kansas' defense made the difference down the stretch as the Jayhawks won 81-57.
"We weren't going to come out and beat them by 100; they're too good a team," coach Roy Williams said after the game. "I expected it to be a very close, hard fought game."
Holy Cross only shot 34 percent for the game, but Kansas couldn't shake the Crusaders early, going basket-forbasket with them during the inaugural 10 minutes of the season. But, with 4:01 remaining until the half — and after an apparent missed assignment by Langford — Hinrich pounded the ball between his palms and raised his usually-quiet voice. He said he, like last season, wanted to prevent another early tournament trip-up.

"Six for 15 so you know," the senior forward said. "I missed quite a few shots. I tried to stay aggressive and play my best."
Most basketball players would love to see 20 points and eight rebounds next to their name on a stat sheet after a game. But Nick Collison isn't one of those guys.
The humble 6-9 forward told reporters after the game that although he played well and remained aggressive, his poor shot selection lead to a low shooting percentage.
Kansas coach Roy Williams said Collison's ability to recognize a poor game and identify his mistakes made him an easy player to coach.
"Nick Collison has been one of the most blunt guys I have ever coached," Williams said. "I said what'd you do there and he said'I just screwed it up' or 'I just mess it up' or'I did this,'he is one of the easiest guys to coach there has ever been."

Senior foward Nick Collison and sophomore guard Keith Langford try to thwart Holy Cross's Kevin Hamilton's pass. Collison led the Jayhawks with 20 points and Langford added an additional 15 in Kansas '81-57 victory last night.
No matter how dismal Collison made his 20 point showing seem, it was a vast improvement from his last meeting with the Crusaders. Collison scored only five points when Kansas met Holy Cross in the first round of last season's NCAA tournament in St. Louis. He said last night's game was his chance to prove he could play better against Holy Cross.
"I wanted to play well," he said. "I felt like I played horribly in that game. You know offensively and defensively I didn't play very well, got stupid fouls. It wasn't a good game for me. So, gee, I did want to come out and play well."
Williams said the fact that Collison lead his team is scoring, without being on top of his game, proved that he is a premiere college player with a bright future.
"He didn't play very well," Williams said. "But the thing is he's a pretty dog-
gone good player when he doesn't play very well and has 20 points and eight rebounds. You know that's a great sign for him."

Volleyball team faces top-25 competition

Kansan sportswriter
With three top-25 teams on the horizon, the Kansas volleyball team may face a bumpy road in the next couple weeks.
The Jayhawks start the stretch at 7 p.m. tonight against the No. 5 Nebraska Cornhuskers in Lincoln, Neb. Kansas enters the game off a 3-0 victory Saturday against Baylor. The game ended a two-match losing streak.
Kansas will continue its tough schedule against Missouri on Saturday and then against K-state a week from today.
We knew the Baylor match would
be a last chance for a deep breath for the last four matches that includes the top three teams in the conference," coach Ray Bechard said. "The win was critical not only in the standings, but with a little bit of momentum, now we dig in and compete as hard as we can for the last couple of weeks."
Kansas (18-7 overall, 9-7 Big 12 Conference) has not beaten Nebraska (24-1, 16-0) in the past 67 straight matches, and the Jayhawks have not taken a game from the Cornhuskers since 1998.
Nebraska also has a 66-match winning streak in the Big 12. The Cornhuskers have not lost at home since Sept. 22, 1999 when Kansas State won 3-2.

Kansas senior middle blocker Kylie Thomas of Sutherland, Neb., said she was excited to play at Nebraska because she would back to her home state and because fans created a dynamic atmosphere in the NU Coliseum.

Nebraska leads the conference in hit
Bechard said the last two weeks of the season can build competitive muscle.
ting efficiency, opponent hitting percentage and blocks per game. Senior middle blocker Amber Holmquist and freshman middle blocker Melissa Elmer are first and second in the Big 12 in hitting efficiency. Holmquist, senior setter Greichaly Cepero and Elmer are the top three in the conference in blocks per game.
"As an underdog, it relieves pressure right there as we're not expected to do much there." Bechard said. "So any positives we can take out of it will be good."

Woman claims Jordan tried to buy her silence
箭
V
CHICAGO — The woman accused of extortion by Michael Jordan responded with her own lawsuit yesterday, saying he offered her $5 million to keep quiet about their relationship.
The Associated Press
Karla Knafel asked the court to force Jordan to pay her the money because he was in breach of contract.
S
Jordan filed a lawsuit in October, contending he had a relationship with Knafel more than 10 years ago and paid her $250,000 "under threat of publicly exposing that relationship."
Jordan's lawsuit said Knafel tried to extort another $5 million.
Yesterday, Knafel's lawyer, Michael Hannafan, said: "It was Jordan who initially offered to pay her $5 million in the spring of 1991 for her agreement not to file a public paternity proceeding and for keeping their sexual relationship publicly confidential."
Knafel's lawyer said his client and Jordan had a sexual relationship from 1989 to 1991 in Chicago.
Indianapolis and Phoenix. Knafel discovered she was pregnant shortly after being with Jordan in November 1990, Hannafan said.
Jordan then offered her $5 million to keep quiet about their relationship and about the child she thought was his, said Hannafan. He said Knafel is not today claiming the child is Jordan's.
Jordan's attorney, Frederick Sperling, said yesterday that the basketball great authorized him to say that any allegation that Jordan was the father of any of Knafel's children was untrue.
At that time, she believed the child was Jordan's, he said.
Jordan has asked the court for an injunction barring further extortion efforts and a declaration that Knafel's demand is unenforceable because of her "existing obligation not to publicly expose the relationship."
Iverson afraid to be in Philly
Jordan and his wife, Juanita, were married more than 12 years ago. She filed for divorce last January but since withdrew the case and issued a joint statement with her husband saying they were attempting reconciliation.
The Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA - Philadelphia 76ers guard Allen Iverson is afraid police are targeting him and he might want to leave the city, according to published reports.
"I want to be in Philadelphia, but I'm scared to be here," the NBA star told The Philadelphia Inquirer and Philadelphia Daily News in yesterday's editions.
They were Iverson's first public comments about his off-the-court troubles last summer.
Iverson and his wife, Tawanna, gave an interview to the newspapers Monday at the 76ers' practice facility, to blunt the impact of what the couple says is an unflattering TV news report on Iverson's personal life. The interview was attended by their lawyer, Larry Woodward.
"I've heard about police officers toasting to Allen Iverson's next felony conviction," Iverson said. "I'm hearing about them saying I'm involved with one thing or another, and it scares me. I know that if there's a crooked cop out there, they could do anything to me. He could do anything. Allen Iverson could wind up dead tomorrow if a crooked cop wants him dead. It's as simple as that."
A spokesman for the police department, Inspector William Colaruto, said misconduct of any nature would never be tolerated by police Commissioner
Sylvester Johnson.
Iverson did not speak to reporters at the team's morning shootaround in New Orleans before last night's game against the Hornets. The Sixers had no immediate comment on the report.
Anticipating that Philadelphia TV station WTXF is planning a news segment raising questions about lverson's lifestyle, the couple thought it was time to speak out. The NBA star had been advised by his lawyers to not discuss the situation.
During the 90-minute interview with the newspapers, the Iversons also denied reports of domestic abuse.
Iverson and his uncle were accused of barging into an apartment on July 3 and threatening the two men inside while Iverson looked for his wife after he allegedly threw her out of their house. He was charged with several felonies, but the charges were eventually dropped.
"My husband never hit me, and he did not throw me out of the house naked," Tawanna Iverson said.
Iverson is concerned about the media attention he and his wife have received since last summer.
WTXF news director Scott Matthews said it was the station's policy not to confirm or deny the content of any of its programs.
"I worry about Tawanna all the time," he said.
"She rides with security before the game, after the game. There's security for 24 hours at our house."

KABUL, Afghanistan — Muhammad Ali capped his three-day goodwill visit to Afghanistan yesterday with a ride through war-battered western Kabul and a visit to the destroyed palace of the country's former king.

Ali met the former king, Mohammad Zaher Shah, Monday night and was shown the rocket-blasted palace — nearly leveled during the 1992-96 civil war — by Shah's grandson, Duran Zaher.
"I want to thank you ... for showing me how strong you are in spite of the hardships your country still faces," he said. "You must keep that strength. You must continue to hope for a brighter tomorrow."
The former heavyweight champion arrived in Afghanistan Sunday in his role as a "U.N. Messenger of Peace," hoping to focus international attention on the poverty-stricken nation as it emerges from more than two decades of war.
"My life and my success were built upon the preparation that I practiced when I was a young person growing up in a poor place in America. And just like myself, I know that you will succeed," the 60-
Ali, who suffers from Parkinson's disease, walked slowly and with help throughout much of his visit. His own spoken words, too faint to be heard clearly were repeated by aides.
Women were banned from most jobs and girls banned from going to school during the former Taliban government's five-year rule, which ended in a U.S.-led war last year.
During the trip, Ali met President Hamid Karzai, visited a U.N.-sponsored girl's school and ate bread at a U.N.-funded women's bakery.
Ali also visited a boxing club Monday and stepped into the ring to spar with two young Afghan boxers.

Men'screwendsfallslate
The University of Kansas club rowing teams found a fruitful ending to their fall season that included three medal-winning boats and most notably a new course record earned by the Mixed Open Four boat.
The competition took place on Nov. 9 in Natchitoches, La., on Cane River Lake, KU's record-setting boat captured a time of 3:29.5 on the 26.2 mile Marathon Rowing Championships course.
Team secretary, senior Eric Buschelman, said it was difficult to stay in a boat and keep the same motion for such a long time and the team was pleased with the results.
KU bested the previous course record by more than 12 minutes. The team competed with about 100 other competitors.
Other medal-winning boats came from the Mixed Open Double boat, capturing first place in its race and second place from the Women's Open Eight boat.
The competition capped off a successful fall campaign for the club rowing team, which will regroup with a two-week rest period before launching into a winter training program focusing on endurance and strength training.
"We are going to be starting real easy with a strong emphasis on building up and making sure we don't get hurt." Buschelman said.
The fall season featured strong showings from its large novice class as well as impressive performances by veteran member boats.
On the men's side, a four-man boat with Tommy Ryan, Jeff Albritton, Bo McCall and Jeremy Struemph posted an impressive showing in an earlier competition
in Boston.
At the same competition, the women's team showed its strength with a solid performance from the Women's Open Eight boat.
This fall's women's squad is among the best in recent years for Kansas, said Buschelman.
KU will be out of competition until the Sunflower State Championships in late March. Other competitions in the highly competitive spring season will include a trip to Madison, Ws., for the Midwest Rowing Championships in preparation to send Kansas' two best boats to Philadelphia.
"The spring season is really competitive," Buschelman said. "We are satisfied with our fall season, but we are going to have to work harder."

Wells testifies in fight trial
NEW YORK — New York Yankees pitcher David Wells testified yesterday he was sucker-punched and "knocked for a loop" in a late-night fight inside a Manhattan diner in September.
The 27-year-old Graziosa was charged with misdemeanor counts of assault, menacing and possession of a weapon—a butter knife he is accused of waving at Wells. He faces up to a year in jail if convicted.
Wells testified about the one-punch fight in the early morning hours of Sept. 7 and said he never touched defendant, Rocco Graziosa, before he was hit in the jaw.
Wells recounted that
Graziosa, who was in the dinner with friends, punched him without provocation and then stood there "smiling like he did the best thing in the world."
Wells described Graziosa as foul-mouthed and insulting and said the defendant punched him after making insensitive remarks about his late mother.
Wells said he was punched as he walked toward the bathroom.
"I turned to his buddies and said, 'Enough is enough.'" Wells testified. "And then when I testured, he sucker-punched me. ... I was knocked for a loop."
Wells, staggered by the blow, fell and gashed his forehead on a diner table, Assistant District Attorney Brian McCarthy said. Wells, who had two teeth
knocked out in the fight, spent seven hours at a dentist the next day, the prosecutor said, adding work on the player's teeth was not finished until Monday.
McCarthy asked the 6-foot-4, 250-pound Wells if he ever touched the 5-foot-7, 150pound Graziosa.
The pitcher responded: "I never touched him at all."
In opening statements, defense attorney Henry Mazurek said Wells was "stinking drunk" when he instigated—and then lost—the fight.
"Ladies and gentlemen, David Wells was stinking drunk," Mazurek said, acknowledging that his client was drinking. too. "You'll hear from David Wells himself that he was intoxicated."
Backup's injury eases Rams' QB controversy, for the moment
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — Marc Bulger's finger injury takes care of the St. Louis Rams' quarterback controversy, at least for this week.
Bulger, who was 5-0 as the starter to help revive the team while Kurt Warner was out, won't practice until at least Friday because of swelling in his sprained right index finger. It's conveniently timed for conspiracy theorists, considering Warner reclaims his starting job for Sunday's game at Washington as the Rams (5-5) begin a three-game road swing.
"This is all orchestrated," coach Mike Martz said yesterday.
tongue firmly in cheek. "I guess you probably ought to get photographs of the finger. Do you want me to get you the finger?"
Seriously, Martz maintained all last week that no matter what Bulger did, he was just filling in. As for any naysayers, he would simply remind them that Warner has been the NFL's MVP two of the last three years, is the highest-rated passer in the history of the league and led the team to a pair of Super Bowls since his surprise ascendancy in 1999.
Martz discounts Warner's mediocre numbers this year, considering the Rams' 0-4 start a team collapse as they struggled to come to grips with their Super
Bowl upset loss to the Patriots. He had a lone touchdown pass and eight interceptions during the Rams' 0-4 start, but the opposing defenses were among some of the league's best (Broncos, Bucs, Giants) and the line was banged up.
On the other hand, Bulger led the Rams to a comeback victory over the Chargers last week after Marshall Faulk left with ankle and foot injuries, and played without him in Monday's 21-16 victory over the Bears.
Martz said Faulk again would be questionable for the Redskins game with a high ankle sprain by far the more troublesome of the injuries.
"It's a very mild one, but it's one that's limited him a little bit, so we'll just have to see how he is," Martz said. "He plans to practice this week but we'll just have to see."
Bulger is scheduled to be the backup at Washington, but Martz said he wouldn't consider him a relief pitcher of sorts while Warner works his way back into form.
"To me, it's like asking would you do that with Brett Favre?" Martz said. "Why is that any different? No, I don't see any reason to do that at this point."
Teammates have been expecting this move, and there have been no dissenters despite Bul-
ger's league-leading 106.0 passer rating and his 1,496 yards passing — an NFL record for the first five starts of a career.
"Kurt's been doing this for a long time and I don't think anything was ever in jeopardy," offensive guard Timmerman said. "Marc got some great experience and who knows what happens down the line?"
"But we know we've got a good quarterback who can come in and play."
It goes without saying that Bulger wasn't overjoyed to be headed back to the bench. But both he and Warner have been saying all the right things throughout this controversy, and Martz said the
relationship offstage has remained solid as well.
"I think it's hard to handle it any better," Martz said. "That goes back to the type of people they are. They're very humble, both guys, and yet they're very competitive and would like to be the guy."
Every week during his amazing run, Bulger downplayed his impressive numbers.
"There's always things you could have done," Bulger said. "Being a quarterback you touch the ball on every play and I certainly didn't make every play I should have and every read I should have."

served as a wake up call," Hinrich said. "We kind of had an idea of what the game was going to be like."
In the next four minutes, Hinrich took control of his team. He nailed two free throws, dove for a loose ball, hit a jumper in the lane and drew a charge while Langford followed his lead. The sophomore finished a fast break, snatched a rebound and drew
another charge for the 'Hawks. The 12-0 run to close out the half gave Kansas a 39-20 lead.
"They were kind of back on their heels," said sophomore Keith Langford. "We were giving good pressure. Our defense definitely played a key in the run."
Kansas (1-0) pulled away in the second half by giving a highlightreel worthy performance around the rim. A monstrous slam by Nash in the first half — possibly his best ever in a game — kept the rims rattling until he did it again after the break, this time off a Hin-
rich assist in the lane. Nash contributed eight points and five rebounds off the bench, and even surprised his coach a bit.
"Kirk particularly has been politicizing for Bryant to get more opportunities," Williams said. "He keeps telling me about all these slam dunk follows and I'd never seen any of them till this year."
Hinrich, who finished with 13 points, claims Nash's talent is extraordinary, although slow to emerge.
"B Nash, he's the hardest guy
The Crusaders (0-1) switched to zone defense late in the second half, but Kansas quickly figured out how to get to the basket. Junior Jeff Graves hit a bank shot in the lane, followed by a Langford basket while hanging in the air. He said his team was not bothered by this type of defense.
I've ever had to box out," Hinrich said. "He's so athletic. He is the best offensive rebounder I've ever seen."
Kansas will face UNC Greensboro at 6:00 Friday for the quarterfinal Preseason NIT game.
Monteral Expos may play 10 games in Puerto Rico
The Associated Press
IRVING, Texas — The Montreal Expos would open their new part-time home in Puerto Rico on April 11 against the New York Mets under plans to be presented to baseball owners on Wednesday.
While the proposal still hasn't been finalized, baseball officials are discussing having the Expos play 10 games in April at San Juan's Hiram Bithorn Stadium against the Mets (April 11-14), Atlanta (April 15-17) and Cincinnati (April 18-20), several baseball officials said Tuesday on the condition they not be identified.
In addition, possible games in San Juan include the interleague series against the World Series champion Anaheim Angels (June 3-5) and a matchup with Sammy Sosa and the Chicago Cubs (Sept. 9-11).
Negotiations are ongoing between the commissioner's office and the players' association, and it still hasn't been decided whether the Expos will make three trips or two to Puerto Rico, where they would play up to 20 of their 81 home games.
"It doesn't affect me where we play," Expos manager Frank
robinson said Tuesday after agreeing to come back for a second season in Montreal. "It will be great to play in front of the people down there. They're great fans. I spent nine years down there managing in winter ball."
San Juan was the host for its first regular-season game in 2001, the season opener between Texas and Toronto.
The Expos, who became the first franchise outside the United States, have been at or near the bottom in attendance in recent years at Olympic Stadium in Montreal. Jeffrey Loria sold the team to the other 29 clubs before the 2002 season when he purchased the Florida Marlins, and the team is operated by the commissioner's office, which wants to cut losses.
Montreal drew just 812,000 fans to its home games this year, and baseball isn't ready to decide on a permanent move. The games in San Juan are seen as a method to increase revenue.
Baseball officials hope to have a permanent solution for 2004, and probably will hold a bidding process. Charlotte, N.C., Portland, Ore., and Washington, D.C., are among the possible contenders.

Iowa State Cyclones slip past Global Sports, 72-69
By Kyle Moss
iowa State Daily via U-wire
iowa State University
AMES, Iowa - The Iowa State men's basketball team finished up its exhibition season with a 72-69 victory over Global Sports Monday night, but the win didn't come easily.
"The word I would use is exposed," ISU head coach Larry Eustachy said. "With our lack of toughness, physicalness and determination, we just didn't play hard enough. Until we get that, we'll have no chance against certain people."
The Cyclones took their first lead of the second half with 5:58 left to play when freshman Tim Barnes put in a lay-up to spark an 8-0 run, which proved to be the difference in the game.
Barnes led Iowa State with 20 points and eight assists while committing zero turnovers in 36 minutes of play.
"His great-grandmother passed away. He missed all last week," Eustachy said of Barnes. "I thought under the circumstances, he played really well. I thought he was a big factor down the stretch."
Junior Jackson Vroman recorded the only double-double
of the game with 11 points and 10 rebounds for Iowa State, while freshman Adam Haluska added nine points and six rebounds.
"We're talking about infants on this team. They really are," Eustachy said. "These are puppies. We have three guys in Vroman, Haluska and Barnes that we heavily rely on. They haven't even played an official college game vet."
Junior Jake Sullivan also scored 20 for the Cyclones, with 14 coming in the second half, and junior Marcus Jefferson pulled down seven rebounds and scored eight points.
Iowa State made 6-of-13 shots from beyond the arc, with Barnes putting in four of them.
"This team is really a perimeter team, something I'm not used to," Eustachy said. "Ideally, you'd like to have a real balanced attack, but our best threats to score are in the perimeter, along with Vroman."
The run toward the end of the game is what Eustachy is looking to as far as what the team needs to do to win games in the future.
He said a lack of experience and toughness played a part in the closeness of the game.
"We're just defining ourselves.
We're 8 percent of what we hope
to be," Eustachy said. "Our problem is in practice. We don't create the environment we had tonight. Practice is going to determine how we do this year."
Vroman, who once again struggled at the free throw line, making just one of six, also noted a lack of intensity throughout the game, making it harder for the Cyclones to get the lead.
"I think the difference was really obvious when we went out and played hard," Vroman said.
Global Sports came with a balanced attack, with five players scoring in double digits.
Eustachy knows there is much room for improvement and has already mapped out the game plan for the coming weeks.
Former UTEP player George Banks blocked four shots and former Texas player Freddie Williams scored 15 points.
"They executed. They did stuff a normal Big 12 team would do, so we're glad to get out of here with a win," Sullivan said. "I wish we played more consistently throughout the game."
The Cyclones kick off the regular season Monday at home against Coe College.
"We need better practices and a little luck," he said.

Twenty students gathered on the lawn in front of Fraser Hall yesterday

"A lot of people only see us protesting things and think that we are angry with everybody," Jana Mackey, Hays junior, said. "But there are a lot of other important things going on besides protests."

Peace may start with a simple, civil conversation.
That philosophy is at the core of a new organization and its first-ever event tonight.
The Kansas Committee for a Just Peace in the Middle East is showing a documentary and leading a discussion afterward to talk about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
GAZA STRIP
- 9:30 p.m. tonight
- Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St.
- S6 requested donation
- An informal discussion about peace in the Middle East will follow the film.
The group formed this semester to create awareness about the need for justice and peace in Israel and Palestine, said Omofolabo Ajayi-Soyinka, member of the group and associate professor of theater and film and women's studies.
The group is showing the documentary Gaza Strip at 9:30 tonight at Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St. The requested donation is $6.
The film by James Longley shows the violent reality of life in the Gaza Strip through the perspective of a 13-year-old Palestinian boy.
"People need to talk about it," she said. "We're hoping that we start a conversation here, and it grows and becomes a voice of concern that will start changing perceptions of what is happening."
Ajayi-Soyinka said the filmmaker's decision to show the conflict from the eyes of a child would give viewers a different perspective of the situation in the Middle East.
"When the media report news, when the policy-makers talk, we see men," she said. "But we now see innocent kids and how their lives are being cut short. When you kill off their young like that, what is going to be left? What is going to be the

SLIDING OFF THE EDGE
The appeal of the straight edge philosophy that once drove thousands of idealistic youth to abstain from drugs, alcohol and promiscuous sex has begun to fade away.
Story by George Schulz ■ Photos by Chris Burket
Jeromy Coffman wears X's on his hands.
Painted on with a thick black marker, the X's represent his commitment to abstinence from drugs, alcohol and promiscuous sex.
It wasn't Nancy Reagan's war on drugs, or the D.A.R.E. program or even a clever anti-drug ploy by the Ad Council that led him to steer clear of booze, needles and Marlboros. Coffman is straight edge.
For Coffman and thousands of youth across the country, straight edge is a response to what they believe is the tacit glamorization of drugs and sexuality in mainstream society. It is a personal choice and an expression of youth counterculture and rebellion.
"I woke up outside the venue passed out against the wall," he remembered. "I realized how fucked it was to get myself into that situation."
But Coffman, a 24-year-old Lawrence resident, wasn't always straight edge. He experimented with drugs and drank as a teenager in Topeka while becoming exposed to the world of '80s punk and metal. He wavered in and out of sobriety until in 1996, at 18 years old, he found himself submerged in a bout with a bottle of whiskey outside a former Lawrence punk haven known as The Outhouse.
Coffman hasn't had a drink since. He even wears a button now that reads, "Kiss me, I'm straight edge."
But, he said, as if to imply he was an exception to other youth. "I pretty much have a strong moral tendency anyway."
Increasingly, Coffman's case is an exception — at least as far as his commitment to the straight edge label is concerned. While he remains steadfast
in his decision to live poison-free, youth idealism has the propensity to fade away, and others who once preached the gospel of clean living are now backsliding.
Out of step
In 1981, Ian MacKaye, singer for the genre-busting hardcore band Minor Threat sang: "(I) don't drink! Don't smoke! Don't fuck! At least I can fucking think!"
The lyrics became a resounding alternative voice to the late '70s punk rock heroin chic.

Music continued to follow the new concept. The surging genre of straight edge hardcore was becoming faster and more technical than its punk rock sibling, just as the notion of abstinence was becoming stronger in its foundation. It was a form of rebellion that didn't fit MTV's teen angst marketing scheme.
Poison-free youth
MacKaye has said he and Minor Threat never imagined what their declaration would become for thousands of impressionable youth.
"Straight edge' was the name of a song to him and a description of how he lived his life," said Amy Pickering, a longtime friend of MacKaye's. "It was never intended as a movement."
Nonetheless, from the East Coast to the West Coast, bands including Strife, Gorilla Biscuits, Youth of Today and, later in 1991, Earth Crisis appeared with a similar drug and alcohol-free message.
"Earth Crisis put a label on feelings I'd always had," said John Momberg, a 22-year-old Lawrence resident who was straight edge until last summer. "I didn't understand why other people didn't feel the same way."
Earth Crisis also had a more solid, hard-line message that included abstinence from the con-

Kathryn Krehbiel, wearing a Marching Jayhawks polo shirt declaring her an "Honorary Member," hurried around the bleachers in Allen Fieldhouse. She quickly scrawled out a check for $150 and handed it to Tom Stidham, director of the men's basketball band.
"Hey, we've got to have our good luck hug," Krehbiel, 79, said as Stidham began to climb back on his director's podium.
"I missed you last week," Stidham said as they hugged.
"It's always something I think of," she said of the band.
Krehbiel and her late husband, Floyd played clarinet together in the KU marching band 60 years ago, she said.
For the last three years, Krehbiel has made a ritual of donating $150 for sodas for the men's basketball band — $3 for every member — before every home game. Three times a year, she treats them all to a barbecue. And before every game, the band repays her with a song.
Krehbiel travels to Lawrence from her home in Moundridge to watch the basketball games and show her appreciation for the band. The idea to buy every band member a soft drink came from her own
"I realized they play a whole concert every game and I thought, "They must be thirsty," she said.
The band members, who receive a $50 stipend for the season's work, show their appreciation during their pregame show, playing "It Had to be You," her husband's favorite song.

At the song's conclusion, the band members stand and wave to Krehbiel, and she stands to wave back.
"I blow kisses to them," she said. "So that's the fun of being old."

Landlord in peeping case gets jail time, probation
LAWRENCE — A landlord drilled peepholes in apartment walls and spied into tenants' bedrooms and bathrooms has been sentenced to 60 days in jail plus 18 months' probation. William Lemesany,49, was charged in October 2000 with 10 counts of eaves dropping.
William Lemeany, 49, must also continue psychological treatment, pay a $7,500 fine, serve 100 hours of community service and be supervised whenever he enters his apartment buildings to do maintenance.
"I wanted to apologize to my residents for the trouble they've been through," Lemesany told District Judge Jack Murphy in court Tuesday. He also apologized to his own family.
Some former tenants had also sued Lemesany, and a Douglas County jury last month ordered him to pay damages totaling $1.29 million to six plaintiffs.
Graves to cut budget before Sebelius takes over
TOPEKA—Gov. Bill Graves will announce a second round of cuts next week in the 2003 budget to close a projected $310 million deficit.
Graves said yesterday he would make the spending cuts in the $4.4 billion budget. He would not say if the cuts would include education.
Graves has been meeting with his staff and Gov.-elect Kathleen Sebelius to make the cuts. Graves leaves office Jan. 13. As part of her campaign, Sebelius promised to hold public schools harmless from cuts.
However, the school budget is $2.3 billion, or more than 52 percent of the state's expenditures. That leaves Graves little room to close the budget gap among remaining agencies.
Sebelius has until Feb. 3 to submit her budget proposals to the 2003 Legislature. That package must include a proposed budget for fiscal 2004 and a revised budget for fiscal 2003.

U.N. officials set stage for weapons inspection
BAGHDAD, Iraq — "Business-like" talks with Iraqi officials have set the stage for a decisive new round of weapons inspections starting next week, including possible unannounced drop-ins on President Saddam Hussein's palaces, the chief U.N. inspectors said yesterday.
"The world and the Security Council want assurances that Iraq has no more weapons of mass destruction," the chief of the U.N. inspection team, Hans Blix, said on a stopover in Cyprus after two days of talks in Baghdad.
An Iraqi vice president said the Baghdad government would cooperate fully with the inspectors, but he warned the Americans against placing spies in the inspection teams.
In the Czech Republic, where he was attending a NATO summit, Prezident Bush also struck a combative note on Iraq, playing down the importance of the inspectors' return to Baghdad, and again threatening military action if inspections didn't work.
Bush said people tended to focus on the inspectors as if they were the end.
He said eliminating weapons of mass destruction in Iraq was important. British and Australian officials said they were engaged in contingency planning with the Americans for a possible eventual attack on Iraq.
In the southern no-fly zone, meanwhile, U.S. warplanes bombed three air defense sites yesterday after the Iraqis fired missiles and anti-aircraft guns at U.S. and British planes, the U.S. military said.
An unidentified Iraqi officer said the strikes were against "civilian installations," the Iraq News Agency reported.
It was the sixth such encounter in the past seven days.
The U.N. teams are returning to Baghdad under a new U.N. Security Council resolution describing the inspections as a "final opportunity" for Iraq to meet its post-Gulf War obligations to give up any chemical, biological or nuclear weapons.

JRP bus route to be canceled
By Caleb Mothwehr
cnothwehr@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Students will have one less bus route next semester.
The KU on Wheels transportation board voted unanimously on Monday to cancel the bus route that travels from GSP-Corbin Hall, through campus and to Joseph R. Pearson Hall, which houses the school of education. The change will be effective starting on the first day of classes next semester.
Eric Braun, chairman of the transportation board and St. Louis senior, said KU on Wheels administrators had received little response from students after they first released that they were considering canceling the route.
"If we had the money,we'd love to keep that route." Braun said.
The bus used for the JRP route will now move to Daisy Hill as a park and ride bus, he said.
Braun said there was greater need for a bus on Daisy Hill, especially once the weather gets worse.
"Daisy hill routes are packed and it's not even cold yet," Braun said.
KU on Wheels was originally able to add the JRP bus because the renovation of Ellsworth Hall allowed fewer students to live on Daisy Hill. Administrators were expecting about 300 riders per day, but were only seeing about 60 per day.
Students who ride the JRP bus are unhappy with the decision.
"I really rely on the bus since the weather is getting colder," said Rachel Franks, Leawood junior.
Adam Reese, Manhattan freshman, said that, although not many students were riding the bus, he disagreed with the decision to cancel the route.
"It seems ridiculous that they raise tuition but have to cut things like this," Reese said.
Web portal to improve online services

University of Kansas officials unveiled yesterday the initial version of a student Web site titled Kyou.
The Web site is a portal, or gateway, to other links frequently used by students. It consolidates online services under one address, which eliminates the need to bounce back and forth between several sites and the KU home page. Students can log-in one time to access the site, which has links to e-mail, grades, class schedules and
Although a few bugs remain in the Kyou system, the site was launched to allow students to explore the concept and help developers polish the final product.
Blackboard.
The site, www.ku.edu/kyou, is the first section of a two-part launch. The initial site integrates services that are already available, but scattered throughout the University's network.
It also adds a few new services, such as online access to financial aid information and the new digital library.
The project has been allotted
$224,000 through the student technology fee.
The site aims to solve two common problems for students, said Julie Loats, Web administrator and director of the Kyou project.
The first is providing a single log-in for every online service provided at the University.
The second is virtually extending the office hours for some campus services beyond the standard 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. to 24 hours a day.
"It will take us a long way in terms of clarifying for students what it is they can do in terms of business transactions online with the institution," Loats said.
Phase two, to be launched sometime next semester, will integrate online enrollment, the course catalog and personalization of the site.
"Everyone can kind of make it their own thing," said Marilu Goodyear, vice provost for information services.
A service coordination group will research what services students want added to Kyou for phase two, Loats said.

Oh, deer: breeding season here
By Aaron Passman

apassman@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The holiday season is here, but it is also a less recognized, but often very dangerous time: deer-breeding season.
Deer-breeding season occurs between October and December, the time of year when drivers are most likely to get into a deer-related accident. But deer accidents can occur any time.
Brandy Furst, Lawrence freshman, had a run-in with a deer in February 2000. Furst was driving to Paragould, Ark., when a doe and fawn came in front of her car.
"I was going around a corner on a dark windy road when a big doe ran out in front of my car and I hit it going about 40 miles per hour," said Furst. "It rolled over about five times into the ditch and then I saw it get right back up on its feet and run away with the baby."
The deer left a small dent in the hood of Furst's car, but despite the small damage, Furst said she was shaken up by the event.
"It scared me to death and I was screaming a lot." Furst said.
Web site, the Department of Transportation logged 10,184 deer-vehicle accidents in 2001, with 418 injuries and no deaths. Since 1996, there has been a yearly average of 6,679 deer accidents on Kansas highways.
Deer accidents on the Kansas Turnpike are at a normal level for this time of year, said Ed Hanton, patrol administration assistant for the Kansas' Turnpike Authority.
"We're on pace to be about the same as last year or maybe even less," said Hanlon. "It's pretty hard to predict mother nature, though."
According to the Kansas Highway Patrol
There has been a yearly average of 254 deer accidents since 1999 on the Kansas Turnpike, including 216 this year.
The Kansas Highway Patrol Web site suggests that drivers be on high alert at dawn and dusk, when deer are out and visibility is low. The site also advises slowing down and paying attention to deer-crossing signs, posted where deer-vehicle accidents have occurred in the past.
Hanlon also specifically recommended that drivers not swerve when a deer gets in their path, because swerving can lead to worse damage, such as rolling the vehicle.
Students rebuild park
By Justin Henning
jhenning@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
In its current state, Clopper Field is a park full of light poles, some fields and a tree.
But University of Kansas architecture students want to add a walking path, two soccer fields, a bigger playground, public restrooms and benches.
Located in the Argentine community of Kansas City, Kan., the eight-acre park has been in need of re-development for years, according to neighborhood groups.
That's where Shannon Criss' class of fourth-year architecture students comes in.
"We were willing and available," the associate professor of architecture and urban design said.
Her students prepared three design proposals to improve the safety, accessibility and new
recreation features of the park.
The proposals were then pitched to various community groups.
"We talked to a class of fifth graders who told us about the tennis courts," Nicole Hipp, St. Louis senior, said. "They said that nobody ever used them, and then said 'but this is what we like' and suggested basketball courts."
Clopper Field was created in the 1920s as a place for community baseball games.
—Edited by Sarah Hill
In its more recent years, the park has been neglected despite it being in the middle of a dense residential neighborhood.
For now, the class will only install four benches in the park in December.
"This is the first step to a long, enduring relationship, to actually build what students are imagining." Criss said.

Compost pile plan needs deserves student support
For over a year the Student Environmental Advisory Board has been searching for a piece of land on the University of Kansas' West Campus.
The search is for a half-acre of land that will be home to a compost program. This program desperately needs student support.
Included in the compost is organic food waste from Douthart and Grace Pearson Scholarship halls and animal feces waste from Malott Hall. The compost project will not only reflect that the University is environmentally conscious because it will use the compost as fertilizer, but it will also decrease the amount of waste in the United States.
In 1998, KU started a compost program, but unexpectedly the trial program was cut short.
Unfortunately, the compost project was never restarted due to the lack of land.
The land is the key to the project, yet finding the land for composting is difficult because the land must meet specific requirements. The land must be a flat area with water and drainage available for the compost pile to operate properly.
Victoria Silva, Director of Department of Environmental Stewardship, said, "The land is the only thing holding the project back."
Not only is land a problem, but KU student support is minimal.
It is obvious that the compost offers an environmental advantage to the KU campus.
It is time for KU students to stand behind SEAB and recognize their efforts. Amanda Meglenre, member of SEAB and Overland Park junior, said, "Basilically, more student involvement would lead to active search for land."
However, student support is necessary if the plan is going to be implemented. Students should support the compost pile for the sake of the environment and to improve KU's reputation as an environmentally friendly campus.
The smell of the compost will not haunt students as they walk down Jayhawk Boulevard. Several years ago when the trial program was in progress the waste had been picked up weekly from each scholarship hall. The DES said there were no complaints about the smell and the expected rodent problem was not evident.
Hopefully the next time you see the KU campus fertilized you will thank those who had the environment in mind and took the time to help out.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Writer needs to research
The main commentary, "Protesters need to research, think critical about causes" in the Nov. 12 Kansan was poorly researched and badly written.
It was a severe oversight on someone's part that it was allowed into the paper at all, but especially as the feature. The author is apparently upset at recent "leftist groups" protesting against the Boise Corporation for destroying old-growth forests.
Next she attacks the opponents of the proposed second Wal-Mart in town.
At one point in the article, she asserts "Liberals in other small towns across the country try to prevent new Wal-Mart stores as well."
She accuses the group of being badly informed and "full of hot air." Yet the only "evidence" she provides to counter their claims is from the Boise Corporation's own Web site! If the author were seriously interested in the truth, she would have dug a little deeper.
The author must have felt that the audacity in such a claim precluded it from requiring proof, as she gives none. Such is the theme throughout the piece; wild polemics without substance.
She then mangles the protestors' position, claiming they believe Wal-Mart is "evil because the corporation encouraged globalization."
First off, describing legitimate concerns with Wal-Mart business practices as "evil," without giving any mention of these concerns, is a fatuous misrepresentation, which only serves to trivialize the opponents' position. But following it with "The environmentalists whined in general," is outrageous.
Not only has the author indicated her unwillingness to give the protestors a fair hearing, she has now resorted to insults. If she had wanted to argue with straw men, there are fields aplenty in Kansas, and we would have been spared the pain of having to read this rubbish.

'Take back the night' events should be for women only
I'd like to respond to the Nov. 18 article "Women debate male participation."
I feel that if men want to support women in their fight for their rights as women that is one thing. But to actually have men
come into a women-only space, the women's survivor circle (a space for people who identify as women)—these are two totally different things.
I feel that the "Womyn Take Back the Night" events should stay as they are. There should only be women and women who identify as women in the women's survivor circle and also at the march.
I also feel there should be no male children allowed to participate with the women, regardless of age, in the women's survivor circle and the march down Massachusetts Street.
If men come into the women's survivor circle, I believe that most women (and I include myself) would feel violated and threatened. I don't feel I am alone on this issue. I feel it undermines the principle of empowerment that 'Womyn Take Back the Night' creates.
Since the men have their circle while the women are having theirs at different locations at the same time, I don't understand why men would want to be a part of women's survivor circle.
Why do they want to invade our space? If men are allowed into the women's survivor circle then what's next? Men in a sorority?
This is our time. They have theirs
I'd like to respond to the Nov. 7 commentary "Bicycle riders should follow same laws as car drivers" written by Meagan Kelleher.
Don't let 'automania' win
Amanda Kay Zehr
Lawrence sophomore
While I agree that bicyclists should obey traffic rules, the tone of her letter troubled me.
As someone who rides his bike daily in and around Lawrence, comments like "I refuse to share the road with those on bikes" or "Bike are just as dangerous as cars" were both troubling and curious. Troubling, because in the competition between car and bike, the car always wins. Even the best helmet is no match for 3 tons of aggressively moving steel.
But at a deeper level, Kelleher, who I'm certain is a fine person, has been blinded by what I call automania. She believes that driving a car is a God-given right and that the roads belong to the auto.
She seems completely blind to the addiction that the automobile/oil has wreaked upon this nation and will continue to inflict (i.e. a likely war with Iraq.

The editor that put the word research in the headline above Audrey Snyder's Nov. 12 column, "Protesters need to research, think critically about causes," surely had a sense of irony, because it would seem that columnists have an even higher duty to do so.
Column's reasearch is weak
After KU Environs' Friday protest of the Boise Corporation's use of old-growth forests in its products, Ms. Snyder derided the protest, stating, "According to the Kansan story, the corporation's Web site states that it actually uses very little old-growth forest wood and that Boise is decreasing that amount." This sentence tells us a lot. First, it states that by its own admission, Boise does in fact destroy old-growth forests. Second, it tells us that Ms. Snyder quoted a Kansan article that quotes a company's Web site. Clearly a corporate Web site is not the authority on any environmental matter where it has a profit motive, and more importantly, the columnist did not even look at that site, or any other source whatsoever to support the claim that the

KU Environs "have too much time on their hands."
Instead, since it ran out of steam so quickly on an environmental front, the column turns its attention to Wal-Mart. After making a general statement that there is a national epidemic of blaming corporations for imagined problems, in the absence of research, the column provides a single, local example.
The column complains that citizens "whined" about protecting local business, traffic problems and environmental concerns. This "whining" as the column describes it, is also known as "citizen participation" and is the reason that the planning commission meets in an open setting.
To defend the claim that Wal-Mart does not harm a community, the column provides the uncited statement that the jobs Wal-Mart provides help people on low or fixed incomes. That is unlikely. Companies like Wal-Mart employ many part-time workers who do not receive any insurance benefits, forcing them instead to turn to government medical benefits, which Ms. Snyder no doubt against as well.
Public protest and citizen participation are both very valuable rights that the column very casually casts aside, especially without factual cause. To borrow a line from Ms. Snyder's column, "Those who think that" students and citizens are "doing something wrong should look into the facts before they make fools of themselves."

Boeing to cut more jobs
The Associated Press
SEATTLE — Boeing Co. expects to eliminate 5,000 more jobs next year in addition to the nearly 30,000 cuts the aerospace company has made since the 2001 terrorist attacks, the company said yesterday.
Half of the new cuts would be made through attrition and the rest through layoffs in the commercial airplane division, unit chief executive Alan Mullaly said yesterday.
The company signaled more than a month ago it would need to make further cuts because of a long slump. Since the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, Boeing has deferred deliveries of more than 500 jets as airlines, bleeding billions of dollars, canceled or rescheduled orders.
By the end of 2003, the commercial planes division expects to have a work force of 60,000, from its current 65,000, spokesman Bill Cogswell said. The first layoff notices will go out on tomorrow and take effect on Jan.24, he said.
For the Machinists union, which has lost thousands of workers in the past year and lost a contract battle in September aimed at gaining better job security guarantees, the prospect of additional losses comes hard.
Boeing's engineering and technical workers union, which is voting on contract proposals from Boeing, also was dismayed by the news.
"One more layoff is one more too many," said Bill Dugovich, a spokesman for the Society of Professional Engineering Employees in Aerospace.
The company has spent the last few weeks trying to determine how many people it would need in the coming year to match employment with production levels. Cogswell said.
Most of the new reductions will come in the Puget Sound area, Cogswell said, where Boeing builds its jetliners in factories in Everett and Renton.
"We believe the employment reductions will impact all of our areas, all of our employees, nonsalaried members and executives across the board," said Cogswell.
Boeing is based in Chicago, and its commercial plane division is based in Renton.
Westar executive pleads innocent
The Associated Press
TOPEKA — Westar Energy chief executive David Wittig and a former bank officer have pleaded innocent to charges that they illegally steered a $1.5 million loan for Wittig into a real estate investment for the banker.
Wittig received the loan last year from the Capital City Bank in Topika, with the help of former president Clinton Odell Weidner II. A federal grand jury indictment alleges that instead of using the money as documents suggested he would. Wittig turned it over to Weidner, who bought into
an exclusive housing development planned outside Scottsdale. Ariz.
The charges against the two include money laundering, filing false documents, conspiracy and misapplication of bank funds. The indictment does not say why Wittig would allow the money to go to Weidner.
The allegations are not related to Westar's operations. Westar is the state's largest electric company, providing power to 647,000 customers, but it also has nonutility interests, most notably its 88 percent share of the Protection One security alarm firm.
Wittig is on administrative leave without pay from his position as Westar's chairman, chief executive officer and president. Weidner left the Topeka bank earlier this year.
The two men had their first appearance Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Topeka to hear the charges against them and enter their innocent pleas.
Neither Wittig nor Weidner had any comment after the 45-minute hearing, and their attorneys declined comment. During the hearing, O'Hara reminded the two defendants that any statements could become part of prosecutors' case.

Graduates must update coverage
By Nathan Dayani
ndayani.kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
By Nathan Dayani
Zack Lerner graduates in December. Like many of his graduating peers, Lerner will be faced with a challenging rite of passage: finding a new health insurance policy.
"If I don't have it, I'm going to bein trouble," said Lerner, Prairie Village senior. "I have a lot of medical bills because I'm a weightlifter."
Almost all KU undergraduate students are insured either through their parents' or the University's health insurance plans, said Carrie Strahm, administrative assistant at the Watkins Health Center insurance office. She said MEGA Life insurance, a Dallas-based firm, covered students at the University.
Graham Bailey, director of public relations at the Blue Cross and Blue Shield headquarters in Topeka, said students preparing to graduate should become familiar with the benefits of their insurance policy and find out when it expires.
Strahm said students could maintain eligibility with the University plan after they graduated if they continued to take seven or more credit hours at the University and met other full-time student requirements.
Bailey said students insured by their parents generally lost their eligibility between the ages of 23 to 25, because they were no longer considered to be dependent on their parents.
Although insurance policies vary, Strahm and Bailey said students could usually continue to be insured through their parents' policy after graduation.
"As a general rule, most companies provide the opportunity for students to continue to be covered on their parents' policy," Bailey said. "Usually, those policies are more expensive if you're in good health than going out and finding a policy out on your own."
However, Bailey said students should consider purchasing temporary insurance until they found a job that offered comprehensive coverage.
Jeff Wittier graduated from the University in May 2002 and has been without health insurance for about six months.
"I'm a pretty healthy person, but there's always the risk that a traffic accident or something else could cost me or my family a significant amount of money," said Whittier, Lawrence resident.
Whittier said he recently bought a temporary health insurance plan to protect him until his policy with his new employer would begin. He said his employer's health insurance benefits were an important issue when he searched for a full-time job.
"I definitely looked for places that offered health coverage," Whittier said.
ExxonMobil donates to University

quadrupled by the company donation.
A Houston-based oil company, ExxonMobil, has donated more than $606,000 since the Kansas University Endowment Association began its KU First campaign last fall, according to an Endowment Association press release yesterday.
Dale Seuferling, president of the Endowment Association, said ExxonMobil's donations came at a good time.
The donation amount came from a 3-to-1 matching gift program. Under that program an employee or retiree that gives up to $5,000 will have that amount
"Corporate support as generous as this is particularly helpful at a time when much corporate philanthropy is being reduced at a difficult economic time," he said.
Seuferling said the $202,000 in employee-driven donations that the company matched affected all aspects of the University. The money has been applied
to programs in the arts, scholarships, equipment and others, he said.
"A significant benefit of a matching program like Exxon-Mobil is that it can be used to benefit virtually any program across the University," Seutlering said.
Leaders of the KU First campaign said they wanted to complete their fund raising goal of $500 million by the campaign's end in 2004. All donations from ExxonMobil go toward that goal.

sumption of animals and animal byproducts. By the time Momberg converted, straight edge had become an image by which rebellious youth differentiated themselves from the rest of their generation. It had also become a holistic view of the world, a belief that all innocent life was sacred.
To complete the circle of purity, Momberg soon went vegetarian, then vegan, abstaining from all animal products.
"I started putting X's on my hands," he said. "I wanted everyone to know that I was straight edge. I had been feeling this way for so long."
Jon Barker, an 18-year-old Kansas City, Mo., resident who remains committed to straight edge, felt the same way from the beginning.
"Straight edge is a good outlet to be yourself," he said. "It provides a good outlet when kids are tired of having their identities lost."

"It ites with the same way I feel about religious fanaticism." Coffman said. "I don't want to be told how to live my life, and I don't want to tell others how to live theirs. I don't want to breathe it down someone's throat."

Wes Eisold, singer for American Nothing, is no longer straight edge, but the rest of his band remains committed. American Nothing (formerly American Nightmare) performed Nov. 14 at the Bottleneck.
Many modern movements such as straight edge, are identity based, said Lorraine Bayard de Volo, assistant professor of political science at KU. At least part of it has to do with growing up and developing new outlooks on the world, as generations of youth idealists have done before.
"I don't think it's a movement anyone can jump onto because it requires a lot of self-control," he said. "I'd rather people just be themselves."
Barker agreed.
"Many of these new social movements are about being a part of a collective identity," she said. "It's a new way of defining community."
But as youth involved in movements grow older, Bayard de Volo said, their self-interests change, and their values and priorities begin to shift. As the baby boomers, who were involved in political and social activism during the '60s and '70s, matured, she said, they entered the work force and developed different values.
Donald Haider-Market, also an assistant professor of political science at the University, agreed and said teens were often seeking ways to rebel against dominate structures or regimes. In the case of straight edge, puritan values and sobriety had become the ultimate form of rebellion.
But it didn't seem destined to last long.
"Youth already have the motivation to find something — they have a stronger drive than other age groups." Haider-Markel said. "But after a while most people feel like they don't have to rebel and participate in the movement."
Before some straight edge youth would grow tired of the need to rebel, however, a period of radicalism and violence would take place.
As straight edge progressed
through two revival periods in the '80s and '90s, more young idealists, tiring of the world's fascination with mind-altering substances, increasingly believed sobriety was a necessity more than it was a choice.
Hard line
Though most youth embraced pacifism and did not promote force or violence to advance their ideas, a fragment of the straight edge movement began to prefer such tactics.
In Salt Lake City during the late '90s, reports of straight edge violence began to surface. Marilyn Felkner, data analyst for the Salt Lake Area Gang Project, described an incident in which a straight edge kid had stabbed a 15-year-old to death. Felkner said numerous other threats and assaults had occurred, including the destruction of a McDonald's by a straight edge vegan.
Levi Watson of the band Fall
Silent told voiceofreason.de in a
2001 online interview that he had
been pulled off-stage in Dayton, Ohio, by a group of straight edge kids and beaten for a song condemning straight edge violence. His face was smashed and four of his ribs were broken.
"Straight edge is a very positive thing." Watson said during the interview. "It meant a lot to me, and it kept me from doing a lot of dumb shit when I was a kid. But a lot of the time, straight edge is a drug as well."

Watson's statement symbolized the burnout some in the straight edge movement were beginning to feel. Not only was America turned off by straight edge violence. The kids, too, were becoming jaded.
Felkner said violent acts by Salt Lake City straight edgers had started to diminish around late 1999 or early 2000.
"We haven't had much of it lately," she said. "It seems to be dying down."
X Rus
sted edges, severed ties
In 1999, Sean Ingram of Kansas City's Coalesce sang, "If you need an 'X' before and after every title before it's relevant, then I've wasted six years of my life on the simple notion that this was an open forum. ... Burn them if your edge is so sharp it severs ties."
Coalesce's song, "Burn Everything that Bears Our Name," added to the disillusionment that was beginning to prevail in the straight edge and hardcore scenes.
Momberg is no longer straight edge. Neither is his best friend. And neither is one of the people
who impressed Momberg the most when he first converted.
"I was tired of looking down on people because I was straight edge," Mombergsaid. "I got to the point where I didn't want to be like that."
Momberg said straight edge had begun to carry negative connotations, and it was no longer the personal conviction it had once been.
"It's a lifestyle that can be misleading," he said. "At the time, I felt the only way I could connect with people was if they agreed with me. I got to the point where I didn't want to be like that anymore. I wanted it to be on my terms."
'Momberg was not the only one who began to reconsider how much he valued his commitment to straight edge.
"One night I just got really drunk by myself," Chris Miller, a 20-year-old Ottawa junior, said of the night he lost the edge. "I was ready to do something else."
Miller said that when he first had gone straight edge, the commitment had been part of a set of values he had acquired on his own. He thought drugs and alcohol made people complacent and apathetic. But, he said, straight edge became its own code of uniformity.
"The thing about straight edge is it has too many guidelines," Miller said. "It's a strict lifestyle you feel like you have to impose on yourself."
Miller's roommate, 20-yearold Ben Thompson, Ottawa junior, also used to be straight edge. Both Miller and Thompson initially went straight edge because they wanted to focus their energy on political and social activism.
"I thought drugs in general prevented people from caring about things," Thompson said. "But I came to the conclusion that drugs aren't keeping people from doing things. There are lots of other
Miller and Thompson turned away from straight edge shortly after entering college.
things that are just as bad as doing drugs."
As youth grow older, the pleasure they derive from being a part of a larger movement may dissolve, said professor HaiderMarkel. The next generation would likely be more interested in establishing its own subculture, he said.
"Whatever good social feeling they'll get out of it will tend to dissipate," he said. "With people starting to leave the movement, part of the incentive for others to participate will go away."
In the meantime, those who are still straight edge acknowledge that many of their friends are no longer committed. Some of them say, just like other movements, straight edge will someday experience a revival.
"I think a lot of the politics in hardcore are gone," said Jason Shroot, a 22-year-old Kansas city, Mo. resident, who is still straight edge. "A lot of kids say they grew out of it. But, to me, it's too big of a deal to grow out of."
Two members of Barker's old straight edge band The Only Way are no longer straight edge. But, Barker said, straight edge will be a part of them for the rest of their lives.
And Coffman, who said he was straight edge for himself and no one else, still wears his "Kiss me, I'm straight edge" button with pride.
"I don't really condemn anyone, mostly because I don't feel like I have the right because I used to drink," he said. "For some people, it's just not right for them. That's the reason I don't think straight edge is going to change the world."

Violence not inherent in straight edge culture
By Geoge Schulz
Kansen staff writer
gschulz@tianan.com
Most straight edge youth say they would never condone violence as a means to advance their message.
But during the late 1990s, a small group of straight edge sects began to endorse such tactics to promote their cause.
In Salt Lake City during the late 1990s, reports of straight edge violence began to surface.
Marilyn Felkner, data analyst for the Salt Lake Area Gang Project, described an incident in which a straight edge kid stabbed a 15-year-old teenager to death.
She said other incidents of assault with brass knuckles and baseball bats had also occurred.
Straight edge vegans were accused of fire bombing a Tandy Leather retail outlet, destroying a McDonald's and burning down a Mink Breeders Cooperative building.
The Salt Lake City police, along with the Salt Lake Area Gang Project, responded vigorously to straight edge violence and property destruction.
Salt Lake City area schools now outlaw any clothing that carries slogans promoting the straight edge philosophy, Felkner said.
Also, she said, straight edge members who commit crimes tied to animal rights or straight edge can now be prosecuted
under "group enhancement" laws, which can stiffen imposed sentences.
"Several straight edge members have been convicted on either state or federal charges and are currently incarcerated," she said. "We believe this has sent a clear message to other straight edge members. Criminal activity by any group will not be tolerated."
But straight edge kids say terms such as "members" and "recruits," as used by some police agencies, cannot be applied to straight edge.
In other words, no one "joins" straight edge, they become straight edge. Most youth say straight edge is an individual choice and cannot be defined as part of a gang mentality.
"It's a case of people not understanding something and being afraid," said John Momberg, Lawrence resident, who was straight edge until last summer.
"If all you see is how the media portrays straight edge, yeah, you're going to think it's violent." Momberg said.
Jason Shrout, a Kansas City. Mo. resident who is still straight edge, agreed and said the Kansas City and Lawrence straight edge scenes never had a problem with straight edge violence.
"That's exactly the opposite of what straight edge is," Shrout said. "There's no leader. There's no initiation. We never had any militant straight edge kids."

Twenty supporters of peace formed a large human peace sign on the front lawn of Fraser Hall yesterday afternoon. At the center lies Hays junior Jana Mackey, who doubted the sign made a direct impact on the nation's foreign policy, but she thought it was a rally point for students with the same concerns
Creating the peace sign out of people was meant as a visual display to the campus community that students are concerned about the potential war, Kelli Brandt, Leawood junior, said.
"Most students are uninformed or apathetic about the issue but it's important students be active," she said. "You don't necessarily have to change the world, and every little thing helps."

"She's kind of like the adopted grandma of the section," said band member Ryan Stites, Buffalo Grove, Ill., senior.
Stidham said band members sent Krehbiel cards, and one student gave her a quilt with each band member's name on it.
She always gives him extra money in case she can't make it to

"Not a lot of people recognize the band," he said. "This is a way for someone to actually do something tangible and let them know they're appreciated."
Stidham said her kind efforts did not go unrecognized.
"She really loves the kids and loves to get to know them a little bit," he said. "As I often tell the kids, having the financial resources to do that is one thing, but to have the spirit to do that is really something different."

Members of the group will lead a discussion after the film. All perspectives will be welcome, said Amberereen Shaffie. Houston junior and group member.
Shaffie said open discussions were sometimes lacking on campus but a good conversation left room for dissent.
"If you talk to people and you have a good discussion, that's a successful event," Shaffie said. "You can disagree with someone and still have progress being made."
The group's goal is embodied in its name; just peace in the middle east. Ajayi-Soyinka said that the phrase "just peace" meant that peace should not come at the cost of more death and destruction. Violence does not bring peace, she said.
"By just peace' we want to recognize that Israel deserves its nation, the Palestinians deserve their nation," she said. "We want equitable treatment for both groups. If one group perceives there is injustice somewhere, then it will not last."
Bryan Seck, Wichita junior said more KU students should educate themselves about the conflict.
"Everyone has an opinion," he said. "But when you ask them, it seems they don't have much knowledge."
Seek took a class on politics in the Middle East and said events like the one tonight were another way students can learn what the media leaves out.
"I don't think you're going to get a really balanced articulation of the situation just by reading the headlines of USA Today," he said.

Bench shines, has questions

KANSAS

Kansas sportswriters
The word "but" may be wearing out its welcome for the Kansas men's basketball team.
When preseason hype began, this word was usually mingled among the high praises for the Jayhawks, particularly when stating that the Kansas team had the best starting five in the country, but questions surrounded the bench.
Luckily for Roy Williams' sanity, this topic of conversation may be on its last lee.
Williams said the reserves' 14 points against Holy Cross Tuesday night convinced him they were off to a solid start, but little problems still linger.
"Our bench guys can really help us if they don't hurt us," Williams said. "Bryan (Nash's) three seconds, Bryant's illegal screen, Moulaye's (Niang) two turnovers in the lane. Those kind of things do hurt us. You've got to offset that by some good playing."
The Iavhawks did.
Nash did not let his mistakes rattle him and continued to play with abilities not often seen from the junior forward in his first two years as a Jayhawk. Nash tied his career-high with eight tips — including one dunk tip rebound that made it on ESPN's SportsCenter's top 10 highlight reel — and grabbed five rebounds with just one turnover in 16 minutes.
Senior Kirk Hinrich, who is emerging as one of Nash's biggest supporters, said Nash was doing all the right things.
Junior forward Bryant Nash boxes out a couple of Holy Cross players for one of his five rebounds Tuesday. Nash tied his career-high with eight points in 16 minutes of play.
"He's listening to coach and that's going to do nothing but help him," Hinrich said. "He learned how to play in coach Williams' system. He worked on

his shot and worked on it. Now he's knocking it down."
Williams said that Nash, along with other reserves like junior forward Jeff Graves or freshman guard Jeff Hawkins, would get a chance to shine as long as they remained composed on the court.
"He helped us," said Williams of Nash. "I expect that he's going to be given opportunities to continue doing that, just as well as Jeff Graves. (They) don't have to make big time plays. Guys that come off the bench, I don't expect that. You just have to help us."
Graves, who transferred from Iowa Western Community College, must work on cutting down his fouling tendencies. Williams said. Graves committed three fouls in eight minutes Tuesday.
he said. "He's still got a long way to go, but just about everybody does."
"He fouls way too much in practice,"
"We're still tying to get them in a habit so they don't have to think about it," Hinrich said. "It gets a little tough when there's 16,000 (people) out there."
Hinrich said the starters, who are used to the fast tempo pace of Kansas basketball, would keep working to get the reserves in their frame of mind.

Women's Basketball Washington signs two new players

Any builder will tell you the first step to erecting a solid structure is laying the foundation.
She and her staff assembled a talented core of youngsters that should give the Jayhawks the base to build a skyscraper, and they have already signed two workers to finish the roof.
Kansas coach Marian Washington could have been a carpenter in another life.
Lauren Ervin, of Inglewood High School in California, and Sharita Smith, of Lincoln High. School in Dallas, have completed the paperwork to join Washington's crew, signing letters of intent last week.
Smith, a 5-foot-8 guard, should complement freshman point guard Erica Hallman, Miss Kentucky Basketball in 2002. Like Hallman, Smith was already nationally known by the time she was a junior. She was named a Street & Smith preseason All-American this season and was tabbed among the 40 best players in the country by two online recruiting services. All Star Girls Report ranked her 37th, and Blue Star picked her 35th.
Her mother, Charva VanZant, said that Smith's greatest addition to the young Jayhawks would be calculated by another measure — victories.
"She's awesome out there on that court," VanZant said. "If their team is in trouble, Sharita knows how to pull it out."
Assuming a leadership role with the Jayhawks should be no problem.

The swimming and diving team will face its toughest challenge of the year this weekend at the 2002 Nike Cup Invitational.
Kansas will be the only representative from the Big 12 Conference in the meet, and will face many quality opponents, including the host-school North Carolina, which is ranked 11th in the College Swim Coaches Association of America Dual Meet Poll.
"We are getting out of the Midwest and the Big 12 and seeing a whole new group of competitors," coach Clark Campbell said. "Which makes us better athletes

The Nebraska volleyball team extended its Big 12 Conference winning streak to 67 games last night with a 3-0 sweep (30-22, 30-25, 30-15) of Kansas at NU Coliseum in Lincoln, Neb.
The No. 5 Cornhuskers (25-1 overall, 17-0 Big 12) have swept the Jayhawks (18-8,9-8) in nine straight meetings.
"We competed well for 80 percent of the match, especially in games one and two," said Kansas coach Ray Bechard. "I was a bit disappointed in game three, but that's what happens when a very physical
team like Nebraska wears you down."
Freshman middle blocker Josiane Lima, the reigning Big 12 Player of the Week, did not play against the Cornhuskers because of shin splints. Bechard said she was questionable for Saturday's 7 p.m. match against No. 19 Missouri at the Horeisi Family Athletic Center.
Junior outside hitter Sarah Rome led the team with 12 kills and eight digs. Senior Kylie Thomas, a native of Sutherland, Neb., and sophomore middle blocker Ashley Michaels each had eight kills.

Football woes should be solved by next season's weak foes
Although the Kansas football program wallows at the bottom of the Big 12 Conference, coach Mark Mangino may lead the team to prominence by following his mentor's lead.
Mangino started his Division I coaching career as an assistant at Kansas State Under Bill Snyder. Mangino spent eight years on Snyder's staff and saw the Wildcats transform from a cellar dweller to a top conference team by recruiting junior college standouts and scheduling non-conference cupcakes.
Mangino has said he wouldn't fill his team with junior college transfers. Fortunately for the future of Jayhawk football, he 2003 Kansas schedule does feature a new patsies. Assuming Mangino can recruit three or four players to start on offense and the same number on defense, Kansas could even reach bowl conition next year.
First will be Northwestern on Aug. 30.
The Wildcats are 3-8 this year with a home game against Illinois (4-7) on Saturday. They defeated Duke (2-9) by just five points and Navy (1-9) by just nine.
The Jayhawks will face Wyoming on Sept. 13 in Laramie, Wyo. The Cowboys will be in a similar situation to this year's Jayhawks because they will have a first-year coach after Vic Koenning was fired Monday. They are 2-9 with a game left against Mountain West Conference foe New Mexico (6-5). Wyoming is in the bottom two of eight teams in 16 of 28 conference statistics, bringing up the rear in total defense and scoring defense. Chalk up
Northwestern is last or next-to-last in the Big 10 Conference in 14 of 28 statistical categories, including last in scoring offense, scoring defense and total defense. With the Wildcats being the season opener at home, this should be a victory and a strong beginning to Mangino's second year at Kansas.
SPORTS COMMENTARY
Levi Chronister lechronister@kansan.com
another victory and a 2-0 start for the Jayhawks.
Kansas will continue its trek through the Mountain West against San Diego State next week when they travel to San Diego. The Aztecs are 5-8 with a game against 8-3 Air Force on Saturday. San Diego State has an unbalanced offense, leading the conference in passing but finishing last in rushing. Even with Kansas' troubles against the pass this year, the Jayhawks should have momentum in this game and roll to their first 3-0 start since 1997, Terry Allen's first season.
As if it were a stepchild of the Mountain West, Kansas has a rematch against another conference foe in Nevada-Las Vegas on Sept. 27. This time, the game will be in Memorial Stadium and the Rebels won't have mobile quarterback Jason Thomas, who totaled 218 yards and accounted for two touchdowns against Kansas as a senior. With revenge on their minds, the Jayhawks will top the Rebels and end their non conference season 4-0.
As usual, the Big 12 portion of the Kansas schedule will prove difficult. Missouri will be the first conference opponent, visiting Memorial Stadium on Oct. 4. After the way the Tigers ran over the Jayhawks this year, one would hope Kansas could pick up a victory next season. Playing the optimist card, count on Kansas being 5-0 after mauling Missouri and paying retribution for quarterback Bill Whittemore's season-ending knee injury with three games left this season.
Kansas' other Big 12 opponents are Nebraska, Colorado, Texas A&M, Kansas State, Iowa State and Oklahoma State. The only game that KU could win is against Oklahoma State on Nov. 15 in Stillwater, Okla., considering the Jayhawks were embarrassed by the Cowboys last weekend and Oklahoma State is the only team which will finish close to .500.
This would leave Kansas just one victory shy of a bowl game. Baylor visits Lawrence on Oct. 18, which should be another revenge victory because of this year's embarrassing defeat to the Bears in Waco, Texas.
Even if Kansas can pick up just two conference victories, a 6-16 record would be one of the biggest and quickest turn-arounds in college football history. It may be a reach, but it's certainly within the Jayhawks' grasp.

Truluck to play Sunday
The Associated Press
KC
The Kansas City Chiefs added the 6-foot-4, 255-pound defensive end to their 53-man roster Wednesday and will use him on Sunday against Seattle, giving the 28-year-old Brooklyn native the opportunity he's been dreaming of since he played college football at SUNY Cortland.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — R-Kal Truluck, who was almost killed while defending a teenage girl from a knife-wielding attacker, is finally getting a chance to play in the NFL.
"It feels good to have my chance, to have my opportunity," Truluck said Wednesday. "But regardless, I'm going to continue to work hard and do the things I need to do. I just want to come out and contribute and do whatever I can to make an impact."
made a detailed study of some of the game's greatest sack artists. Truluck was signed by the Chiefs last August and was placed on the practice squad after recording four sacks in the club's exhibition season.
A pass-rush specialist who's
Coach Dick Vermeil, whose defensive line has been depleted by injury, said Truluck will probably get 26-30 plays against Seattle.
"I'm not sure he's ready to step up. But he's the only available healthy defensive lineman we have to give us eight men to suit up and play on Sunday." Vermeil said.
"I think he deserves an oppor-
"He shows a very good initial burst. He shows a very good feel for the pass rush, good use of hands," Vermill said. "Now we want to see how he does against a quality football player in a game environment playing within the defensive scheme. If he does a good job, he's liable to stay on the active roster. If not, then when one of those (injured) guys come back, they'll replace him."
Butler County receives bowl invite
The Associated Press
An opening-season loss has come back to haunt Butler County, which recently watched its chance at a national championship slip away. But Jayhawk Community College Conference coaches are pleased that three of the conference's eight teams received bowl invitations for the second season in a row.
"It speaks volumes for the conference," Garden City coach Bob Larson said of the accomplishment. "We talk about having a tough conference but it is what we are all about."
which it lost to Georgia Military, 51-19.
Butler County, the No. 3 junior college team in the nation, lost to then-unranked Trinity Valley, Texas, on Aug. 31 in El Dorado The Grizzlies had their sights set on a rematch of last year's national championship game,
But Georgia Military (10-0), ranked No. 1 in this week's National Junior College Athletic Association poll, is expected to play No. 2 Joliet, Ill., (10-0) for the national title.
Butler County (10-1) will play No. 7 ranked Dixie State, Utah (9-2) in the Dixie-Rotary bowl in St. George, Utah, on Dec. 7. A pair of other JCCC schools, Coffeyville and Garden City, will also play in bowls.
No. 12 Coffeyville (8-3) will play at home against No. 4 Rochester, Minn. (11-0) in the first Dalton Defenders bowl on Dec. 1, and No. 14 Garden City will play No. 11 Glendale, Ariz. (8-2) in Glendale in the Valley of the Sun bowl on Dec. 7.
"Anytime youget consideration for a bowl let alone play in one you
have to consider your season a success." Coffeyville coach Jeff Lelker said. "It's a credit to our conference that we have three schools in bowl games."
Butler County coach Troy Morrell remains optimistic about his team's finish.
"We still have a chance to finish No. 2, depending on what we do in our game," he said. "The number of points that a team wins by in these bowls could figure into what happens."
Butler County wide receiver Tremel Guillory said the initial shock of not being able to play for a national championship was unsettling to the players.
"Coach and all of the players were real disappointed in what happened," said Guillory. "We were all down but we all know we still have a chance to make them not forget us."

Signees CONTINUED FROM 11A
Smith believed she fit in from the first time she stepped onto campus, VanZant said.
"She was like 'Oh, Mom, this is it,'" Van-Zant said.
Ervin, a 6-foot-3 forward, was on the want list for many of the nation's premier women's basketball programs — including Tennessee and Texas — and rightfully so. She averaged 21 points and 15 rebounds per game as a junior before transferring schools and sitting out the remainder of the season. All Star Girls Report ranks her as the sixth-best senior in the country and Blue Star rates her fifth. She was also selected to the West Team in the USA Youth Development Festival — an invitation-only tournament composed of the best women's high school players in the country.
All those honors don't mean that Ervin will come to Kansas without a few question marks.
Marissa Cruz coached Ervin during her freshman season at Bishop Montgomery High and said she could be tough to handle.
"She thought she knew everything and didn't want to listen." Cruz said.
Now in her first season as coach of Inglewood, Cruz has been reunited with Ervin and has changed her assessment.
"When I heard she was on the team, I was worried," Cruz said. "But after I sat down and talked with her honestly, I realized she had matured a lot."
That may be true, but Ervin has not completely outgrown her tendency to unwieldy behavior.
During the USA festival in June, Ervin was suspended from the West Team for the final game after her involvement in a fight with teammates Imani Dhahabu, Richmond,
Washington said she didn't foresee any problems with Ervin, disciplinary or otherwise.
Calif., and Crystal Erwin, Pico Rivera, Calif.
"What we want her to know is that we have expectations here, both in the classroom and certainly on the court," Washington said. "But she chose to come here, and she understands that we have standards here and expectations.
"I believe a lot of times that young people really want that. They want that discipline. They to want to be held accountable. I'm really looking forward to working with her."
Cruz agreed with Washington. She said that Ervin chose Kansas because she was looking forward to escaping the distractions surrounding her on the West Coast.
Ervin did not reply to numerous interview requests left with Cruz.

Volleyball CONTINUED FROM 11A
recorded a .467 hitting percentage with eight kills in 15 attempts against Nebraska, the conference leader in opponent hitting percentage. Without Michaels, Kansas hit just .052 percent.
"Ashley made some smart shots to get on the opponent's floor." Bechard said.
Nebraska registered a .389 hitting percentage, which is the highest the Jayhawks have yielded in a match this season.
Kansas took a 5-2 lead in game one before the Cornhuskers tied things and then took a 13-12 lead, which they never relinquished.
in game two, Kansas took a 7-4 lead, but Nebraska called a timeout, the Cornhuskers scored the next five points, regaining the lead at 9-7. Kansas tied the game at 10, but could not get any closer.

down the road."
There are 10 schools participating in the three-day championship meet. Theteams include: North Carolina, North Carolina State, Kentucky, Louisiana State, Syracuse, Michigan, East Carolina, Virginia Tech and Kenyon College—the Division III national champions.
According to Campbell, North Carolina is the "run away favorite" in the competition, but Kansas is just as good as any of the other schools in the event.
"We could be battling for second place," he said. "If we get out of blocks fast, we could be battling Michigan, Kentucky and LSU. East Carolina from Conference USA is a really
good team this year. This meet is going to be highly competitive and it should be fun."
Junior Whitney Sondall said she knew the competition would be tough, and it would be good for the team down the road to face tough competition outside the conference.
"Some schools are very good," she said. "We think we can do really well. It's good for us, because there are no other Big 12 schools, and we will face good competition besides within our own conference."
Campbell could not overstate the importance of this meet. He said that, aside from the Big 12 Championships and the NCAA tournament, this was the most important meet of the year.
"It's great to go into a championship style format," he said. "Our goal would be try to get season best times, this meet, and
then match those meets later in the season and beat those at the Big 12 tournament."
Sondall echoed her coach's sentiments.
"It shows our coaches and us where we are at," she said. "It shows us how much more we need to do and how far we've come."
After the meet, the swimmers will have a chance to go home to spend Thanksgiving with their families. But the holiday at home does not mean a break from swimming. "It is great for them to go show off their new skills when they practice with their club teams or old high school teams and its great for recruiting," Campbell said. "Maybe they can help recruit some future Jayhawks while they are home."

Dear Ryan Wood. Roy is God. You are creep. Shut the hell up.
old division of the KGA Junior Amateur tournament.
I'm at the basketball game, and I was just wondering, what the hell is the deal with the cheerleaders? They don't do anything. They just stand around, socialize and do a crappy job. And note to the cheerleaders, I'm not a girl so you can't blame this on me being jealous. So get naked or get the hell off the court.

Let it be known that I hate KU basketball. I just had to drive around for 30 freaking minutes and I couldn't even go home. I hate it. That's right, Roy, Hate.

Aimee Mann shows lighter side at Liberty Hall
ALEXIS DAVIDSON
Aimee Mann performs at Liberty Hall. She brought her melancholy variety of pop music to Lawrence last Thursday night.

Fatalistic lyrics disguised by happy music, magnificent melody writing, multiinstrumental talent and an intense, expressionless face were all elements of Aimee Mann that fans expected to see at her concert last Thursday at Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St.
It was the unexpected side of Mann — happy, amiable and relational — that concert goers will remember most, though.
She and her band played her original songs as if straight from the albums, with Mann's powerful gaze rarely leaving her face. It was in between those songs when she really opened up, though. She offered listeners a glimpse beyond her straight-faced prom shots and "to be or not to be" lyrics with such light-hearted stage banter that she genuinely earned the descriptor "endearing."
Five songs into the set, the band had barely begun playing a song when one of those amused smiles crossed Mann's face and she stopped the song.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute," she said. Turning to the lead guitarist, smile maintained, she told him he was way out of tune.
He strummed a chord and admitted it. With a defensive smile, he handed the blame off to the band's back-stage guy, who had tuned all of the band's guitars before the show.
"What I like is that it's not just out of tune,it's spectacularly wrong,"she said to the audience,"so that no one could continue playing."
The songs were played with a comfortable variety. The electric keyboard often mimicked strings, the drummer used a number of percussive instruments and Mann traded acoustic for electric on a few songs and for bass on one. Each song was tightly woven together, both in composition and musicianship.
"Talking between songs is not really my specialty, as you may have grasped," Mann said early on in the set.
She was being humble. She talked about a folk festival she had performed at, where she every artist gave a five-minute explanation of each song they played. She didn't feel as if she could talk about any of hers because so many were embarrassing ex-boyfriend stories. She did give way on one song, though — "You Could Make a Killing."
"This song I wrote about Noel Gallagher, who I had a huge crush on," she said quickly, as if she had to admit the secret but didn't want to. She had recently run into him in London and he kissed her. "I was like, 'Right on!'" she said.
Aimee Mann's concert didn't consist of jammed-out songs or all-new guitar solos, but her mesmerizing voice didn't need additives. Her full vocal range and sincere personality made her live show great even greater than expected.

Flaming Lips, Beck give audio-visual experience
A. J.
Eric Braam/Kansan
Beck plays to a sold-out crowd in the Lied Center. He performed with the Flaming Lips Saturday night.
"It was a blast," Scurlock said. "At first it seemed like just a show, but when Wayne (Coyne, lead singer for The Flaming Lips) introduced me, I realized I'm playing home."

Surrounded by people in furry animal costumes and others bearing gigantic bouquets of light, Kliph Scurlock, Lawrence resident and drummer for The Flaming Lips, found himself in a familiar place.
The atmosphere prior to show was tense with expectation. Large balloons were released and passed around by the crowd. A short film began on a large screen behind the stage showing people wrestling in monster costumes. About five minutes into the
He and the Lips took the stage in front of a packed Lied Center Saturday night, as they played a show with Beck, Scurlock's first Lawrence show since joining the Lips.
film, The Flaming Lips took the stage.
They dropped into the past with the MTV classic, "She Don't Use Jelly," and brought out a surprisingly strong and emotionally stirring version of "Do You Realize?" from their newest album Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots.
Their first set was an audio-visual masterpiece. They opened with an energized version of the opening track from The Soft Bulletin, "Race for the Prize," backed by images of Leonard Bernstein conducting atom bombs.
Coyne was energized on the stage keeping the crowd active with his guitar, and masterful use of a portable fog machine.
Beck, or Beck Hansen, began his set with only a few acoustic guitars and a stool.
He also played a strong version of "Guess I'm Doing Fine" from his newest album, Sea Change.
About five songs into Beck's set, a sharp drum beat echoed in the auditorium and
abruptly behind Beck appeared the Flaming Lips.
The combined force of Beck and the Lips created a different flavor from either of their works separately.
This new hybrid, Flaming Beck, as it were, came through best on Beck's own standby tracks. He donned the head of a robot, and the Lip's ripped forth into the spacey, electronically-altered vocals of "Get Real Paid." from Beck's last album, Midnite Vultures.
He returned though minutes later, dressed in a glowing coat, almost how Salvador Dali might picture a version of the phoenix, and began the opening bars to "Devil's Haircut."
Beck finished his initial set to the volcanic rumbling of the crowd.
The last fading notes signaled the end of Scurlock's first return as a hometown rock hero.
"He does it because he loves music," Covne said.

No temptation of fame for Burden Brothers
By Amy Kelly
akelly@kansan.com
Jayplay writer
When a musician has "made it" by Billboard's Top 40 standards, leaving easy street behind and starting fresh might be a frightening thought.
But for Todd Lewis, vocalist for the now-defunct Toadies, the idea of cleaning the proverbial slate is working like a charm.
After the Toadies' bassist Lisa Umbarger left the band, Lewis was not quite sure if the music gig was worth the trouble anymore.
Luckily, Lewis found a new partner in Taz Bentley. The former drummer for the Reverend Horton Heat and fellow Texan seemed to share the same philosophy: Forget the corporate hassle and focus on the music. That's when the Burden Brothers emerged.
"I've known Taz for quite a long time," Lewis said. "We're both from Dallas and had done gigs together. We started to play together and it just seemed to work."
"We're really lucky in Dallas," Lewis said. "We have a great panel of musicians. We've even had Izzy Stradlin of Guns N' Roses come into the studio with us."
An ever-rotating array of musicians compose the rest of the Burden Brothers, with the latest tour including guitarists Josh Daugherty and Zach Blair and bassist Casey Orr.
Lewis said the abundance of quality musicians in his hometown of Dallas never ceased to amaze him.
The Toadies enjoyed success with the platinum album Rubberneck, but the Burden Brothers don't want the temptation of fame and wealth to get in the way of their songs.
Rather than waiting to get Interscope's approval to record a song, like Lewis had to do in the Toadies, the Burden Brothers can jump in the studio whenever the musical muse beckons.
"Our label, Last Beat Records, has a compound with two sides one for the studio and the other side has recording space," Lewis said. "We try to get into the studio and record one or two tunes at a time.
"We're really happy with the vibe and leaving it all open."
DONALD JOHNSON

After successful careers in the Toadies and the Reverend Horton Heat respectively, Burden Brothers Taz Bentley, left, and Todd Lewis are now simply enjoying the idea of making music for music's sake.
The initial singles have elements of the Toadies' sound, but Bentley's bluesy rhythms give the songs a groove all their own.
So far, the band's two fully completed songs are "Hang Your Head" and "Your Fault," which have been featured on a recent Buzz-Oven sampler CD. Future singles will be collected after the recording is completed and will be offered in packages that include T-shirts and stickers.
The Burden Brothers' sound is a departure from the Texans' former bands, but don't ask Lewis what that new style is yet—he's still trying to figure it out.
Other acoustic versions of the songs are available on the Web site, www.burdenbrothersmusic.com.
"We kind of change our playing every day," Lewis said. "This whole thing is a big experiment, really."
The Burden Brothers will perform at the Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St., on Saturday.
A meet-and-greet and acoustic performance will take place at 4:30 p.m. Saturday at 7th Heaven,1000 Massachusetts St. For show information, contact the Bottleneck at 842-LIVE.

Anthologies lack hip-hop albums' focus
Missy Elliott builds great album, U2 and Nirvana greatest hits CDs could be better
U2, The Best of 1990-2000, Island
U2's The Best of 1990-2000 brings together perennial favorites from U2's past albums Achtung Baby, Zooropa, Pop and Beautiful Day. This album also features two new songs, "Electrical Storm (William Orbit Mix)" and "The Hands that Built America," as well as four new mixes. It also includes a few songs unreleased on U2's major albums such as "Miss Sarajevo," which possesses a more ethereal quality than is typical for U2.
The new mixes were unremarkable; either being practically indiscernible from the original, or not as energetic as the
U2
THE BEST OF 1990-2000
original, such as the new mix of "Discotheque." As is typical of most greatest hits albums, this album culls many of the most popular songs from past albums, but is bound to miss a few quality and lesser-known personal favorites. Overall, this album is a great buy for the diehard U2 fan or the uninitiated U2 fan. However, if you're going to own one U2 album, I would recommend The Best of 1980-1990 as more representative of U2's classic and influential sound.

Various artists, Music from and Inspired by the Motion Picture 8 Mile, Interscope Records
To create the rap-heavy atmosphere of Eight Mile Road, Mr. Marshall Mathers gathered together a cavalcade of main stream hip-hop heavies to contribute to the album. But the soundtrack to 8 Mile is more steady when Mathers himself has a hand in each song's production. The first track, "Lose Yourself," starts the album out
fast and fierce.
Unfortunately this fierceness comes and goes depending on who's at the production helm. Many of the
8 MILE ROAD
NORTHEAST ROUTE
other songs simply do not stand out. With "Adrenaline Rush" and "Places to Go," the songs seem to hold no purpose other than to just melt into the background.
Other tracks stand out with a more infectious, fast rhythm. "Rap Game," "Battle," and "Rabbit Run," flow with an aggressive beat that makes up for some of the weaker parts. Jay-Z, Macy Gray, Obie Trice and Nas are among those who contribute on the soundtrack.
However, Nas is the only artist to stand on his own ground with the track "U Wanna Be Me." Macy Gray sticks out like a sore thumb with her song "Time of My Life."
It's overly upbeat and her backup singers sound like the Muppets. Ignoring those few weak tracks, the album very much matches the atmosphere of 8 Mile: it's fast and bleak.
Nirvana, Nirvana, DGC
Leah Shaffer
After years of court battles, the world has finally been presented with the longawaited new Nirvana album simply titled Nirvana.
The album is "new" only because one track "You Know You're Right" is previously unreleased. This album is in all actuality just another greatest hits collection that doesn't feel right.
The problems with creating a single di s c anthology of the most influential band of the '90s are numerous.
NIRVANA.
Nirvana only had one unplugged and three studio albums during its brief existence, making Nevermind and In Utero virtually the sole source for the new record. It also limits itself to just 14 songs, leaving off several classics and B-side favorites.
The album also lacks the flow of the original albums.
Nirvana was a great band that sent shock waves throughout the music world. But the album, Nirvana, just doesn't do the band justice, although the new song does rock. There is really no point in buying this 50-minute album when you can create and burn a better 80-minute anthology at home.

PARENTAL EXPLICIT CONTENT
and moving around to Timbaland's Dirty South beats, Missy takes it back to simple old-school beats and samples.
The rap songs build a solid base for the album, especially her current single, "Work It." The songs, except for the ballads, which are low points, have solid hooks and Missy's lyrics flow as well as always.
She makes sure to stick to her trademark raunchy lyrics. "Pussycat," by far the most sexual of the songs, is a ballad in which Missy requests, "pussy don't fail me now" because she has to impress her new man.
The featured artists enhance Missy on all of the tracks, except for "Nothing Out There For Me," which features Beyoncé Knowles.
Instead of a ballad featuring Beyoncé on Missy's album, it features Missy Elliott in a ballad that should be on Beyoncé's album.
Ludacris and Jay-Z make up for this with their polished rap on "Gossip Folks" and "Back in the Day," a song that epitomizes Missy's yearning for a return to old school hip-hop and is the most retrosounding song on the album.
Missy Elliott proves that, even though she's under construction, she can still put out a great album.

Texas artist blends rock with his roots
In a venue known as Antone's in Austin, Texas,the name Bob Schneider is nothing unfamiliar.
LIVEMUSIC
For years, the Austin local has been making music and performing as the front man for such bands as The Scabs and Ugly Americans. He won 10 plaques at the 2001 Austin Music Awards — including one for musician of the year—and is dating Austin actress Sandra Bullock.
Leslie Kimmel
lkimmel@kansan.com
Even though his heart lies in Texas. Schneider's popularity across the nation is overdue. He showed Lawrence his own style last Friday at the Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St.
The Bob Schneider Show had a Ben Folds-esque feeling with Schneider taking the stage solo, accompanied only by his acoustic guitar. What the absence of his band took away, Schneider was able to replace with his versatility.
Think Tom Petty with a touch of Dave Matthews, and the voice of a toned-down Anthony Kiedis.
Schneider's combination of roots rock, blues and a hint of country comes together with a contemporary twist.
His folk rock-rap wordplay over
And not only with his guitar. Over it, Schneider free-styled about such things as the Holiday Inn and added new lyrics to songs he had previously written. This personal touch made his show entertaining.
Before breaking into up-tempo "Tarantula," Schneider was able to get everyone
acoustic sounds gives his show an authentic feel. But he was also able to switch from a soft, romantic voice in such love ballads as "Moon Song" to a more husky sound in somewhat harder tunes like "Jingy."
Perhaps the most notable thing about The Bob Schneider Show is his ability to improvise. Like a true musician, Schneider is able to cater to the crowd, add an extra verse and feed into other songs.
in the house to stand up. He then got practically a full-house chorus going, encouraging those who didn't know the words to just yell out anything and everything.
Think Tom Petty with a touch of Dave Matthews, and the voice of a toned-down Anthony Kiedis.
Periodically, he would call on the crowd to make loud party noises, and even got almost everyone to move in the catchy country-rap, "Bullets."
Schneider played a majority of his songs off of his solo album Lonelyland, which he launched last fall. The Galaxy Kings, his most recent release, is also under his name.
"Tumblin Dice" is built around a jazzy piano riff with feel-good lyrics. His husky voice accompanied by chorus girls in "Montana" has a Spanish-style woodblock in the background.
The jazzy bass line in "Sunkist" conjures up images of sitting in a coffeehouse. It has
a humble way of bringing back reality by discussing everyday occurrences like "cigarette burns" that just make you "smile and say fine."
Schneider even throws in "Good Luck, which slightly resembles a country tune. In a twangy, deep voice that sounds weathered by a cowboy's work, he sings about no more drinking and gambling, but is able to balance the song with more contemporary lyrics.
The Galaxy Kings further demonstrates Schneider's ability to mix roots rocks with a jazzy touch.
However, the music in a few of the songs slightly resemble one other and the lyrics in some songs such as "Blood" are lacking entirely.
Anyone who appreciates music that is simultaneously funny and sad with many components and a jazzy-rock feel should definitely check out Bob Schneider. Anything by The Scabs and Ugly Americans is also good listening for those who have a more brassy taste.
And while Schneider's music is good to listen to on CD,it's even better if you can catch it in concert.

Youth-intended 'Secrets' seamless sequel for all
FILM
Stephen Shupe
sshupe@kansan.com
Faster than a Nimbus 2000 broomstick comes Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, the sequel to last November's mega-hit Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone. Such a brief turn-around would seem to portend a hit-and-miss screen result, but when you consider that this franchise is all about defying predictability, it should come as no surprise that Secrets is as close to the spirit of J.K. Rowling's books as any film is going to get.
[Image] A dark, ominous figure looms in the background, its face shaded with dark skin and a long, flowing hair. Two figures are positioned in the foreground; one is reaching up towards the figure's face, while the other stands slightly behind, with their hands resting on the table. The scene is set against a blurred background that suggests an outdoor environment.
As for the cynical folks who think they're too cool for something as juvenile as Secrets, remember that the The Hobbit, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe and the Spider-Man comics were also published under a kid-friendly seal of approval.
Daniel Radcliffe and Bonnie Wright star as Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.The movie,the second installment in the Harry Potterseries,is the No.1 movie at the box office.

The opening of Secrets finds Harry, played by Daniel Radcliffe, back in the land of muggles, living with the Dursleys, the rowdy relatives who hate him, as he waits to return to Hogwarts for the fall term. Dobby the House Elf, a sort of crossbreed between E.T. and Jar-Jar Binks, rudely announces Harry will meet a bitter end if he returns to school. Ignoring the elf, Harry narrowly escapes his imprisonment by the Dursleys and is whisked to the wizard academy in a flying car with his redheaded best friend, Ron, played by Rupert Grint.
The threat Dobby spoke of turns out to be real, as Hogwarts' students begin literally turning to stone, caught with spooky expressions of shock on their faces. As Professor
McGonagall, played by Maggie Smith, tells it, there's a "chamber of secrets" that was created a thousand years ago by one of the four founders of the school, Salazar Slytherin. According to the legend, an ancient monster lives in its depths, and naturally it's up to Harry, Ron and their whip-smart friend Hermione, played by Emma Watson, to keep it from being unleashed.
Both The Sorceror's Stone and Secrets begin with Harry at the Dursleys, follow his flight to Hogwarts, develop the death plot Harry's archenemy, Voldemort, is planning, and conclude with the boy's triumph. The sequel could have ended up playing like a rerun, but instead Secrets is a masterful improvement, more assured and concise, even at 164 minutes.
Director Chris Columbus and screenwriter Steve Kloves take full advantage of The Sorcerer's Stone as a set-up device. We don't need to learn the logistics of Quidditch again. The sequence, which is much more thrilling and visually convincing this time, begins with clouds passing to reveal
the game in progress. Old rivals, friendships and plot developments are picked up where they left off rather than reiterated unnecessarily. What was previously a stop-and-start pattern of exposition is now a steadier flow of complex relationships. Don't worry if you haven't seen the original, though, because Secrets also works as stand-alone material, just like the Indiana Jones movies did.
I loved the maturity of the performances, from Radcliffe's stoicism to Grint's humor to Watson's shrewd combination of both. The best of the kid performers is Tom Felton, who plays Harry's rival, Draco Malfoy, like a dark prince brooding in the shadows, waiting for his chance to rule. Also unforgettable is Kenneth Branagh as Gilderoy Lockhart, the inept narcissist

'Secretary' types up an outdated, failed message
Director Steven Shainberg's new film, Secretary, is so intent on being quirky and wacky that it seems to be totally unaware of its own inappropriateness. And if one were to give its message the benefit of the doubt, it all comes off as merely outdated.
FILM SNOB
1985
Secretary is the story of Lee Holloway (Maggie Gyllenhaal, the sister of Jake), a girl who has a tendency to perform self-mutilation. The film suggests she does this in order to have control over something, whether it is the pain she causes herself or being able to watch her body heal the wound. But a basic understanding of psychology could be applied to the film to see that the treatment from her alcoholic father, the criticisms from family members, and the comparisons to her blonde sister (Amy Locane) suggests that her self-image has been so distorted and perverted that she
James Owen
jowen@kansan.com
feels she doesn't deserve to be attractive.
One day, she decides to apply for a secretary job with E. Edward Grey (James Spader). What starts as a job that only requires typewriting skills and extra sugar in the coffee becomes a psychosexual relationship where Grey essentially uses Lee as a sex object, including mentally torturing and physically abusing her. Of course, Lee finds this to be a much healthier alternative
than taking the 3/8 drill bit to her legs.
Some will argue that this film is a mere satire on the sexual norms and mores of our society. They will point to Lee's rejection of the by-the-book sexuality of Peter (Jeremy Davies) in favor of the torment provided by Mr. Grey. And that may be a valid point on the surface. But when one looks at the film at a whole its deeper purposes come to the surface. The film uses visual imagery to suggest that the self-inflicted pain Lee causes is no different than the sensation she gets from being abused by her boss.
The film asks us to understand the treatment she receives as an extension of her sexuality. What's worse, it expects us to rally around the fact that her adherence is used as a reward for her happiness in the end. Is this saying that women have to be abused and deprived in order to be successful in the world? Yeah it's saying that, and the script even seems to advocate it.
For more reviews by James Owen, check out www.filmsnobs.com.
Spader's Grey certainly doesn't convey the seductive charm of someone who could get past a sexual harassment suit with his behavior. This may be the message, but there was never a point where I thought that the film was able to get its point across without seeming condescending about it.
I don't blame Spader or Gyllenhaal; they do what they can with the material. I blame the material for ham handling some dark issues with a bare wink to social relevance. I would call Secretary a setback for women, but I think it's safe to say that the film's negative impact will be reduced merely to independent cinema.

No more dorm food and prepackaged dinners. It's turkey time, and in one week we are able to escape from school and celebrate a favorite holiday — Thanksgiving. Dishes such as mashed potatoes, stuffing, green-bean casserole and the infamous turkey are American favorites, but this year try surprising your family with one of these wonderful side dishes and desserts from my family. Not only will they be a hit, but they will soon become a favorite for the holidays.

Thanksgiving: a feast for all
A cornucopia of feasts provides food aplenty

Kansan staff writer
Thanksgiving break was never much of a break for Andrea Baron.
The Cañon City, Colo., senior had to drive nine hours to celebrate the holiday at home and always ended up doing homework the whole time when she was there.
This year, she and her three roommates are busting out their moms' recipes and creating their own Thanksgiving day feast.
"I have to make the gravy," Baron said. "I'm kind of nervous about that."
Some KU students are taking the opportunity to give thanks with the ones they live with during the better part of the year.
For the past two years, students living in Battenfeld and Miller scholarship halls have teamed up to celebrate Thanksgiving

together.
Residents from both halls will spend the weekend preparing for the dinner and then feast on Sunday evening.
"It's a chance to fool around and get in the holiday spirit with people you live with," said Chris Beauchamp, Hutchinson fifth-year senior, who is in charge of the cooking.
James Foley and Libby McConnell, Little Rock, Ark., freshmen, serve themselves from Ekdahl Dining Commons' Thanksgiving meal last night. The campus dining halls served a special dinner in honor of the holiday.

In past years, the cooking has led to tomfoolery among the chefs, Beauchamp said.
"Last year we ended up tossing hot sweet potatoes," he said. "When you're cooking for six to eight hours, it gets monotonous."
The dinner also provides an opportunity for international students who live in the hall to get a taste of what the American holiday is all about, Beauchamp said.
Jessica Fergen, Belle Plaine freshman and Miller resident, said she had been baking all week in preparation for the dinner.
"We love the Battenfeld guys," she said.
Students living in residence halls were treated to a Thanksgiving dinner at campus dining halls last night.
Members of student organizations and clubs are also setting aside time to celebrate the holiday.
The Vietnamese Student Association is jumping on the holiday gravy train by holding a Thanksgiving dinner at 6 p.m. on Saturday at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries building, 1204 Oread Ave.
"I'm used to having rice more often," he said. "I just eat because I'm hungry."
Coming from South Korea, Yoon Jae Lee, Applied English Center student, wasn't as impressed with the cafeteria's Thanksgiving dinner.
"It's better than any other night during the year," Patrick Shaw, Chicago sophomore, said as he sat down to a table at Mrs. E's.
"I have to make the gravity. I'm kind of nervous about that."
Andrea Baron
Cañon City, Colo., senior
Linh Ly, Topeka sophomore and president of the Vietnamese Student Association, said the annual dinner usually attracted 30 to 40 people.
The dinner will include all of the
Thanksgiving dinner staples and a touch of Asian food, such as spring rolls and egg drop soup.
Baron and her roommates' dinner next Thursday will include the traditional Thanksgiving foods: turkey, stuffing and mashed potatoes.
But Baron said they hadn't decided who would stuff the turkey.
"We're more interested in who is buying what," she said.

Similar sexual druthers can alleviate frustrations, ease relationship tension
.
Being a sex columnist means I don't usually have to delve into the nasty, murky world of relationships. I see them as separate — but often related — aspects of human life. And, frankly, I know much more about sex than I do about the relationship. I've had my fair share and all, I'm just still trying to figure myself out. Unfortunately, all this figuring out hasn't yet given me an answer as to what kind, if any, relationship might work.
SEX
It's obviously a problem faced by many in this crazy world; one look at the divorce rate (4.1 per 1000 people in 2000, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) should be proof enough of that.
A. Y.
And if you talk to enough people who have recently left a relationship, or are frustrated with their current sexual situation, it's clear that one of the main causes of relationship dissatisfaction comes straight from not getting enough of the right kind of action in the sack.
Most of the time, a little understanding and some experimenting will oil the gears of your relationship's erotic action. Add some practice time into the equation,and a relationship that seemed to be a sexual dead-end can suddenly open to provide a plethora of pleasing fun.
Meghan Bainum
mbainum@kansan.com
While sex shouldn't be seen as the glue that will hold you and your partner together through thick and thin, it's also not good to completely ignore the huge role leg-shaking, toe-tingling physical lovin' plays in creating a satisfying, healthy relationship. Being the sexual creatures that we are, humans are easily frustrated when intimacy comes short of sating our desires, or sustaining the sexual spark of those involved in a partnership — especially if that partnership is sexually exclusive.
A little bit of good news, though, is that many couples begin their sexual adventure by walking a bit out of step with one another on that tricky path to erotic bliss. So before freaking out about the possibility of being repressed for life and breaking up with your current, not-quite-in-synch partner, spend some time talking about the relationship's possible sexual snafus.
Still, no amount of practice will perfect a relationship involving a sexually incompatible couple. When one partner is unwilling to give the other partner what he or she needs to feel sexually satisfied, or finds a certain aspect of their partner's sexuality disgusting or personally uncomfortable, it's time to take some pretty serious stuff into consideration.
After all, one of the best things to have in a relationship is a partner who will not only support your erotic wants, but will encourage them — as long as they are not dangerous.
The problem with this is it is sometimes hard enough to be comfortable with and accept our own personal desires, much less those of others — especially if those erotic wants don't fall on the "normal" side of the line. If you think wanting a little oral action from your partner is hard to bring up, imagine sitting down with your lover for a talk about using a strap-on penis for erotic play, or an extreme desire to be dressed and treated like a baby while getting it on.
Basically, unless your ideal sex life involves children, rape, animals or extreme, dangerous violence, you have every right to seek a partner who will be an active part of your erotic escapades, and every right to end a relationship that is on the fast track to endless, irreconcilable frustration.
Being in a relationship is difficult enough already, and adding sexual frustration into the mix of problems does nothing but make the partnership seem more like a prison sentence than a joint venture. Wanting a lover who will fulfill your desires is far from superficial or misguided — it makes sense.
Make friends or have fun with those of all sexual ilkss, but save your serious commitments for those people who are excited about pushing your sexual buttons. After all, those who play together have a much better chance of staying together.
HEALTH Q&A
Jayplay is working with HOMEBASE to answer questions about body acceptance, healthy eating and physical fitness. Students in health-related fields will answer readers' questions every week. Submit questions to achap@ukans.edu. Participants will remain anonymous.
Q: What is the best machine for burning fat? I am trying to lose weight and work out at Burge Union or at Robinson. I know the machines get your heart rate up,but is one machine more effective at burning fat than others? I want to use my time to the best advantage to achieve weight loss.
A: There is not one machine that is best for fat burning. Fat burning is related to the intensity and the duration
at which you work out. In order to get the best fat-burning results, a person should work out at a low-moderate intensity, which is usually 50 percent to 75 percent of your heart rate maximum. This person should also have an exercise duration of at least 30 minutes or more. Low- to moderate-intensity heart rates at longer durations assist an individual in burning fat. The best way to choose a machine to work out on is to choose one that you enjoy. Working out should be a relaxing, enjoyable experience, so elliptical or treadmill, both work to burn fat equally as long as you watch your intensity and duration.

To bare or not to bare skin depends on the company
The debate of whether it is sexier to leave a little to the imagination or to bare it all isn't new. Almost any outfit can be altered from conservative to slinky with a roll of the waistband or a few unfastenings of a button-up shirt.
While some may feel more appealing when their breasts are in your face, squeezed together and boosted with a push-up bra, others find it anticlimactic when what you see is what you get.
My skin saga continued when a boyfriend actually reached over and began snapping up a collared jean shirt I was wearing, "I think you look much more sexy this way," he said. I felt like I was on my way to my grandparents' house, which is not exactly the look I go for on an everyday basis.
In high school, my dad would stop me on my way out the door with a "Are you really going to wear just that?" or "Why don't you put a jacket on?" But jackets are removable and buttons unbuttonable.
With this topic in mind I approached a group of guys who were pedaling at the gym and watching football on the television mounted in front of them. I wondered if they were sweating testosterone because I got a unanimous "hell yeah" when I asked if they thought revealing clothes were sexy.
I moved onto a more humble male
FASHION
Sara Behunek sbehunek@kansan.com
friend of mine Robert Ramp, Lawrence junior, thinks there is nothing wrong with showing some skin. I asked him what he would think if it were his girlfriend.
He nonchalantly glanced at my roommate, his ex, and stuck to his original statement. My roommate was getting ready to go out and was strategically unfastening a white, eye-hook top from Arden B to accentuate the eye-catching effects of her push-up bra. "It's about being secure," he said. "For both the girl and the guy."
It's also about the time and place for wearing revealing outfits. But wherever you are my advice is to enjoy the view while you can because it won't be long before you miss your opportunity. Being an old man who is checking out the next generation of young, supple women might make others uncomfortable. To the women I say: Besides the rare instance that a conservative ensemble is required, if you've got it, flaunt it.

Play mixes comedy with serious message
By Donovan Atkinson
datkinson@kansan.com
Jayplaywriter
George Bernard Shaw's You Never Can Tell opens tonight at the University Theatre, continuing the season of classic comedies. The play, written in 1897, explores issues of the English class system, romance and what it means to be modern.
Shaw, known for writing serious plays with serious messages, wrote the play to demonstrate his ability to write a light, witty comedy.
i day swing nights
"It's a good romantic comedy," said Kelly Mengelkoch, Wichita senior and cast member. Mengelkoch portrays Dolly, a character based on one of Shaw's sisters.
You Can Never Tell
George Bernard Shaw's You Never Can Tell will be performed in the Crafton-Preyer Theatre at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 22-23 and Dec. 5-7, and at 2:30 p.m. Nov. 24. The play is directed by John Staniunas, associate professor of theater and film.
You Never Can Tell is a semi-autobiographical play, with other characters based on Shaw's modern, independent mother and his alcoholic father. Their broken relationship is used to explore the roles of women in society.
Jeff Gockel, Overland Park, freshman, portraying Crampton, argues with his dentist Valentine, played by Dylan Hilpman, Lawrence, freshman. Actors rehearsed the play You Never Can Tell Wednesday night before its opening performance tonight at 7:30 in the Crafton-Preyer Theatre.
The nature of love and class are examined through Valentine, a dentist, and Gloria, Mrs. Clandon's oldest daughter.
John Nowak/Kansan
While the play contains serious messages, its focus is to entertain. That same idea is used with the direction of the play.
"It's a whimsical approach, full of life and breath," said John Staniunas, director and associate professor of theater and film.
Another part of Staniunas' direction, and the set designed by Delbert Unruh associate professor of theater and film, is his theory of the bell jar. Shaw's writings preserve images and characters like a bell jar preserves dolls on display.
"The image itself is detailed and specific in time and place. You can see who, what, where and why it exists, and, if that doll were to come to life, you can understand how it would behave." Staniunas said.
Mengelkoch said a goal of this production was to bring out the life of the characters. The University Theatre production of You Never Can Tell also features a Shaw scholar as a member of the cast. Dean Bevan, emeritus professor of English from Baker University, plays the part of the waiter in the show. Bevan, a KU alumnus, has studied Shaw's work for approximately 50 years.
Bevan is also serving as the dramaturg for the production. Dramaturgs research
and analyze play scripts, keeping the possibilities of performance in mind.
With You Never Can Tell being a popular choice in the theater world, the performance possibility is high.
"It's not stuffy English theater. It's fun and alive," Staniunas said. "It's an all around good time."

Review
Author writes sincerely in memoir 'My Losing Season'
By Henry C. Jackson
cjackson@kansan.com
Jaylay writer
In a world where victims of abuse frequently act out in negative ways — the Menendez brothers, or the two children in Florida recently convicted of burning their father alive, for example — Pat Conroy has a novel approach to confronting his own demons. He writes about them.
Conroy is a popular author of such fiction as The Prince of Tides and Beach Music. His latest book, My Losing Season, reflects his horrendous early life with startling clarity.
The life Conroy hated was the life of a military brat. It was a migrant, loveless life that wore heavily on the shoulders of a youth looking for acceptance. Contributing to Conroy's discontent were an abusive father and a mother who rarely did more than kowtow to her marine husband.
As a young child, Conroy tells us, he had not yet discovered his gift for writing. He escaped from a life he was uncomfortable living in when he discovered basketball.
But basketball kept Conroy's misery at arms length, at least for the duration of a game or a practice. Conroy's father was a miserable man whose abuse was both physical — in one horrifyingly vivid scene he pummels his son until he is bleeding because, although he scored 40 points, he did not play defense to his father's standards — and verbal. At one point Conroy's father cheers against him, yelling "Take out Conroy," as his son plays in a state playoff game.
Remarkably, Conroy perseveres despite his father's mental and physical attacks, becoming an all-state basketball player in South Carolina and receiving an invitation to walk on to The Citadel's basketball team in the early '60s. A military college in Charleston, S.C., The Citadel is known for its rigid lifestyle and for having particularly difficult hazing for plebes. It is Conroy's senior year at The Citadel, on a team languidly struggling for the mediocrity of a .500 record with a coach who eerily resembles Conroy's father, that forms the foundation of My Losing Season.
Conroy is a wordsmith, and as he describes his 12-year plus love affair with
basketball it's hard not to be swept away. The inanities of life such as locker room chatter, schoolwork and play-by-play accounts of dozens of basketball games played decades ago come alive as they combine with Conroy's erudite prose.
Conroy's writing is brutally honest. Early in the book, he describes the aftermath of an altercation with his father: "I ate in my room and caught up with my homework and wondered if a son ever hated a father as much as I hated mine." Sentences like this are rare in My Losing Season, because, as writers go, Conroy is not a whiner. When these sentences do come, they pack a heavy punch and provide the reader with an up-close-and-personal look into Conroy's tormented life.
Still, My Losing Season has its faults. It takes awhile to gather steam, and it might be difficult for someone who does not have an affinity for basketball to truly appreciate Conroy's love for the game. His liberal use of sports jargon could intimidate readers who aren't knowledgeable of the game.
My Losing Season triumphs, however, if for no other reason than that it bucks the
trend of sappy memoirs. Too often, similar books give the reader little more than a 400-page essay on why you should feel sorry for the author. That is not the case here, where Conroy excels as he describes his survival of first an abusive family life and then a demoralizing military college. The literary world should be glad Conroy survived his horrific pre-writing life. Whi'e it has clearly scarred the author, it has also helped produce some of the most brilliant literature of the late 20th and early 21st centuries. My Losing Season is a fine addition to that collection.

Dancers flip out at Sundays swing nights
By Michelle Burhenn

Kansan staff writer
Kristen White changes into a pair of dancing shoes minutes after she walks into The Dance Academy, 1117 Massachusetts St.
She's ready to flip.
White, Olathe sophomore, seems like a veteran at the academy's Sunday swing night. Her partners flip her through the air, exposing her red bloomers, and swing her into a "death drop," as her head narrowly misses the floor. She's been going to the academy for six months.
Dance instructor Ed Schliitenhardt shows graduate student Jenny Pool the ropes during a swing dance session at the Dance Academy, 1117 Massachusetts St. Sunday nights host enthuasists from Lawrence Topeka and Kansas City who practice swing dancing in an informal setting from 10 p.m. to midnight.
"I just knew ghetto, high school swing." White says as she taps her dance shoe to the swing beats. "I just love dancing. I just like the tricks. It feels neat to do the flips and the flashy stuff."
John Nowak/Kansan
About 50 people have paid their $5 to dance and the music picks up. Not many people came with partners. Everyone dances with everybody else, says Spencer Roberts, who runs the weekly dance from 9 p.m. to midnight. Another dance is also held from 9:30 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. Tuesday at Ecumenical Christian Ministries, 1204 Oread Ave.
"Swing dancing really opens up a lot of communication between people who normally wouldn't communicate," he says.
hand. In minutes White is spinning confidently with her partner. Her friend, Hayley Parker, watches from a nearby table. It's the Plano, Texas, sophomore's first night at the academy. She watches her friend dance as if she had been a pro for years.
A partner comes and grabs White's
After the song fades, White joins her friend at the table.
"I don't know about dancing." Parker says as White takes a break from swinging. "Everyone here is so good. I'm kind of scared."
"Oh, you'll have it down in two minutes," White says.
"You got to start somewhere, I guess," Parker says.
Within minutes, a stranger asks Parker to dance. She accepts, telling him she's new at this.
"That's Matt," White says. "He'll take good care of her."
After the song, the lights go up and the dancers form a circle and take turns showing their best moves.
Jamie Zerbe, Council Grove graduate student, and Loren Cunningham, Overland Park resident take their turn in the center. They've been regulars at the academy since they met at Louie's, a swing club in Overland Park, and started dating eight months ago.
Cunningham admits that he partly wanted to learn to swing dance because of the girls.
"Obviously it worked," he said.
Rod Pellegrini, La Serena, Chile, graduate student, leads his partner, Stephanie Filardo, Owensville, Mo., freshman, into the center. Pellegrini, a four-year veteran, spins his partner around the circle. It's Filardo's third lesson with Pellegrini.
"Some things are easy to learn. Some things are difficult," she said. "But it's all worth it."
Pellegrini, who is known for his dedication to the Sunday night dances, says the music and the dancing were addictive. He loves lifting his partners into the air.
"I love aerials," he said. "It takes a lot of coordination and teamwork, and it just looks awesome. What's not to like?"

Professor visually documents cultural melting pot
By Katie Nelson knelson@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Contributed art
Pok-Chi Lau travels the world making social commentary through photography, and now his art is traveling the world as well.
Lau, 52, is an associate professor of art and design. Throughout his career as a social photographer, Lau has documented the melting pot that is the United States: interracial relationships, multi-racial children and the assimilation of immigrants into American culture.
The 33 prints on display were taken from 1975 to 2000 in different Chinatowns
A portion of his work is currently on display at the Jan Weiner Gallery in Kansas City, Mo. Many of the prints displayed at the gallery are seeped in symbolism, satire and insinuate social responsibility, he said.
Pok-Chi Lau's portrait, "Tyler Kakeru Lau," is a photo of his son on his first day as an Asian-American. The photo was taken in Lawrence in 1988.
"He's not just showing photos, he's teaching sociology," Jan Weiner, owner and director of the gallery, said.
throughout North America. Some of the photographs were also taken in Hong Kong just after British rule ended there. Others are of Asian descendants who live throughout Kansas in places such as Tonganoxie, Wichita or Salina.
"When people migrate from one part of the world to another, they form different values and different relationships," Lau said. "My work tells about why people
leave to live a lifestyle like us — where we eat the best, wear the best. They want to come to live in the American dream."
Lau has been working on a 244-page book, Dreams of the Golden Mountain (Pace Publishing), that tells about his experiences as an immigrant. It's written in English, French and Chinese, and includes photographs and poetry by Lau.
In January, the editor of Lau's book, Suko Lam, is hosting a gallery exhibition in the suburbs of Paris.
The U.S. release has been delayed because of shipping strikes on the West coast. Lau has one copy that was mailed to him by air, but the rest are still somewhere between the Hong Kong printer and Lawrence.
In the meantime, Lau is planning on returning to China in 2004 to photograph "the good life" of the Chinese people, he said.

J. Lodrops albums,men at mean pace
When a pop artist drops a new album to be consumed by the masses, a new image is sure to go along with it. Whenever artists reemerge in the public eye, they sport new hairstyles, new clothes, and new jewelry, but for Jennifer Lopez, a new husband is a must-have as well.

So because J. Lo is dropping her third album, This is Me, she went out and got a new spouse, and who should it be but the Daredevil himself, Ben Affleck.
Because I don't know either of them, I'm in no position to say that their undying love for each other isn't real, but I am quite skeptical to the fact that they are getting married already.
They've been going out for only a couple of months.
From my experience it seems that most girls date several guys and then choose one to marry, but apparently that isn't good enough for Jennifer, because she has to marry them all.
As you probably know, it was only two years ago when she used to roam around
Of course there are some people who get married after knowing each other for only a couple months and their marriages last forever, but when dealing with Ms. Lo, most souls know she doesn't exactly have the greatest track record when it comes to the whole marriage thing.

town with a certain fellow named Diddy. Then, in what seemed to happen in about a matter of a week, she broke up with Diddy and got married to some guy named Chris Judd, who was one of the dancers in her video "Love Don't Cost a Thing."
Apparently her love only cost the amount of money to pay for some dancing lessons. However, by the time Diddy started whining to her that he needed a girl,
Jennifer Lopez recently became engaged to Ben Affleck. Affleck will be her third husband.
she got divorced to Judd, leaving everyone's head spinning.
And if that wasn't enough, rumors started to circulate that she was dating Ben Affleck.
No sooner did those rumors get confirmed, that it was announced that she and Ben were engaged. I'm pretty sure that
brings us up to date, but for all I know right now, as I am typing this, she is getting engaged to Matt Damon.
So I wish her and Ben the happiest of marriages, but I don't see why she has to marry all of the guys she dates.
It would probably be better if she just simply dated a guy for even a couple months and then got married.
From my experience it seems that most girls date several guys and then choose one to marry, but apparently that isn't good enough for Jennifer, because she has to marry them all.
But I suppose she is a celebrity, so therefore getting married every year isn't that far out of the ordinary.
It's just at the pace she's going, she will leave an arsenal of hit songs about her in her wake.
This year, P. Diddy and Chris Judd are going to team up on "I Need a Girl pt. 3." Next year, the two of them and Ben are going to do part four and in a couple years we will all be treated to "I Need a Girl pt. 7" featuring P. Diddy, Chris Judd, Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, Donnie Osmond and John Mayer.

Kansas origami team folds under pressure
By Patrick Cady
beak@kansan.com
Kansan satire writer
The creased face of Takeshi Norebu, Yokahama, Japan, sophomore, seemed to epitomize the emotions of the KU origami team Friday as it came home defeated from the International Origami Championships, informally known as the Paper Cup.
"I honestly don't know what happened," Norebu said. "It appeared at first that we were doing all right, we had almost finished an origami version of the head of Keanu Reeves, but then everything seemed to fall apart."
The championships, held in the Japanese Quarter of the Italian Quarter of Toronto, marked the farthest that the
team had gotten in the cutthroat world of collegiate paper folding.
"The season) was like one great foldable ride," said William Roys, coach of the nationally renowned team. "We stuck together in the toughest parts, sure the end isn't what I wanted it to be, but still I gotta say, I'm proud of my boys ... and girls."
Despite her coach's kind words, Anna McEnanna, Maize junior and star orchid folder, still felt crumpled by the weight of defeat.
"I can't help but feel let down," McEnnanna said. "I know we went far, but having come back from that paper cut scare a few months back, I thought we were destined for greatness."
The team will take a few months off to nurse their wounds, but will begin training again in February with speed crane-

Arlo Guffy, Helena, Mont., junior, is consoleled by a teammate as he clutches his failed attempt at an origami piece entitled "80's Homage." "It was supposed to look like an origami Corey Haim making an origami copy of Corey Feldman, but Haim started to look like Leif Garrett, which somehow made Feldman look like Erik Estrada, and it just went downhill from there," Guffy sobbed.

"I have to suffer for the moment."
Norebu said. "But, come February, we'll show the world what it truly means to be a paper tiger."
Tape provides evidence Billy Ray Cyrus is alive
An audio tape received by the Tongue in Beak has proved that Billy Ray Cyrus is alive. Cyrus, a country-western song artist, was believed by many to be dead. He disappeared from the music scene in 1992 after his hit song "Achy Breaky Heart" dropped off the charts.
In the tape, which was originally obtained by Rolling Stone magazine, Cyrus sings about current events, offering evidence he is still alive and still capable of vocalizing. In the most chilling segment of the tape, Cyrus threatens to begin singing songs again
Cyrus
and says he may even produce an album.
"If the voice on the tape truly is him, then we should all be scared," Preston McGinnis, Topeka senior, said. "Naturally, I assumed he must be dead or something. I mean, no one had seen him or heard anything about him in, like, 10 years. I just hope we are able to stop him from creating new songs."
The FBI is analyzing the tape to confirm the voice does indeed belong to Cyrus. Upon confirmation, President George Bush intends to stop Cyrus from unleashing new songs in the United States by declaring war on Iraq.

Heaven to re-release 'Bible' in DVD format
By Ben Ross beak@kansan.com Kansan satire writer
Rumors in and around heaven have begun circulating surrounding the highly-anticipated remastering of the blockbuster hit *The Bible* in DVD format. The new release will be slam-packed with never before seen scripture and behind-the-scenes interviews with big-name stars such as Jesus Steinberg, Moses McBlarney and Mary Magdelene Stallone. Also included will be biblical outtakes and director's cuts such as III Kings and the Book of Randy. Although an official release date is not set, this specially packaged bimillenial collectors' edition is expected to be divinely revealed from the heavens to Moses in time for the 2003 Christmas season.
"The Bible is such a classic and we couldn't think of a better way to bring it down to the level of a 21st century American audience."
God director and screenwriter
The new Bible will fit on three DVD discs and will include photos and screenshots of all the stars. It will also be available on single miniature DVD discs for old men to hand out to students on college campuses.
During his weekly radio address, director and screenwriter God said, "The Bible is such a classic and we couldn't think of a better way to bring it down to the level of a 21st century American audience."
The new digitally-remastered classic will utilize state-of-the-art special effects and hi-fi sound support. One highlight will be a pyrotechnical display and a performance by Kiss of its new single "I Want to Bow and Knee All Night and Pray Every Day" during the burning bush scene.
In addition to The Bible, a Jerusalem tabloid has reported that God has begun work on remastering The Bible's critically acclaimed sequel The Qu'an, due out 600 years after The Bible hits stores this winter.
EDITORIAL
by a Pay-for-Newspaper Rack
There's a certain new group of newspaper racks on campus since last year.
KUID newspaper racks a bunch of trollops
Yeah, we all know who they are. I'm talkin' bout those big white racks that give it up for free. I see them every day from where I'm bolted into the cement.
People walk up to them, pull out their little KUID, and BAM! They're open like an early morning bakery.
I can understand giving up USA Today's, but The New York Times?
They obviously have no self-respect giving up newspapers in that manner. If my mamma caught me doing that, she'd kick my glass.
saw that.
Sure, I like to give it up here or there, for man or woman, but at least I make them work for it.
Sometimes, I see even three or four people dippin' one at a time.
Call me old-fashioned, but that's just not the
They just let it all hang out all day for every one to enjoy. Scandalous!
Sure, Aunt Rosie became a Kansan rack, but we all know they have no reputation anyways.
I think that something should be done to run these trollops out of town.
I about spat my quarters out the first time I way my family has done things.
And for all those students out there, think twice before you hook up with one of those racks.
You don't know who's been using it.

Budget cuts on horizon
By Molly Gise
mgise@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas is waiting with other state schools for what seems like the inevitable fall of the ax on their budgets.
In the meantime, Chancellor Robert Hemenway continues to talk to legislators, the public and anyone else who will listen about the value of higher education to the state.
A $310 million deficit is predicted for the state's current budget year, and Gov. Bill Graves said this week that more budget cuts were on the way.
"You're basically in a constant mode of selling the University, selling higher education as a means to a successful exit from the hard times you're experiencing." Hemenway said.
Even during economic troubles, the state must recognize that education is not expendable, Hemenway said.
do that, a university has got to be invested in and supported by the taxpayers."
Student Senate is also working to protect the interests of education. Johanna Maska, legislative director for Student Senate, said members of the Student Legislative Awareness Board and student senators had been speaking to state legislators about preserving the education budget.
The hope is that the development of a personal bond with students will make it more difficult for lawmakers to cut edu
cation, said Maska, Galesburg, III., junior.
The election of Kathleen Sebelius as governor has raised hopes that education won't be cut deeper than it already has been. Hemenway said educators were waiting to see how Sebelius would handle the budget crisis.
"She said she doesn't want to cut K-12 education, and she doesn't want to cut higher education. That was a promise," Hemenway said. "My hope is that will

The University of Kansas conveyed a message yesterday to international students and faculty: thank you.
The World at KU, a celebration hosted by the Office of International Programs, was the main event commemorating International Education Week.
Students, faculty, KU administrators civic leaders and consulates attended the event, which was held at the Kansas Union Ballroom.

Students and friends gathered at the Kansas Union for a reception to commemorate the third annual World at KU celebration. Yesterday's event was the University's way of saying "thank you" to international students and faculty.
"We wanted to bring all the international students together in one place and thank them," said Anne Merydith-Wolf, International Programs communications director. "They bring a very strong dimension to the University."

"It's not a matter of being a pessimist or an optimist," said Kaplan, who has been a foreign correspondent for the Atlantic Monthly for more than 20 years. "It's a matter of being an analyst."
Last night, Kaplan — who has traveled to some of the world's most dangerous countries — presented the lecture "The Roots of Future Conflict" at the Kansas Union Ballroom. About 500 people attended the lecture.
Some think Robert Kaplan's vision for the future is overly pessimistic.
Kaplan said the United States' promotion of democracy in thirdworld countries was often destabilizing because those countries generally lacked the infrastructure and public support for a

you don't go overnight from Mao's China to Tony Blair's United Kingdom," he said.
"This situation is going to get worse in a whole bunch of countries," he said.
Gary Reich, associate professor of government, said Kaplan's views about democracy were often criticized.
"As with anyone who makes a lot of big arguments, he's always open to criticism," Reich said. "Part of his argument suggests that developing countries would be better off with stable, more authoritarian governments than democratic governments that are unable to keep order."

University examining possibilities for KJHK
By Jenna Goepfert
goepfert@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Officials from the School of Journalism say they support the mission of KJHK but don't want to continue to do so financially.
James Gentry, dean of journalism, said the provost and officials from the school had been discussing several options for transferring the operation of KJHK to other organizations, but nothing has been decided yet.
The University owns KJHK, 90.7 FM which the school of journalism operates.
Partnerships with organizations such as KANU, Kansas Public Radio, had been considered to form an alliance with the station.
"My mantra on this is I love KJHK, but I just don't want to pay for it," Gentry said.
Budget cuts, tight resources and new curriculum in the school have made it difficult to cover the cost of running the station, he said.
"The school of journalism has indicated that it would like to shift the oversight of KJHK somewhere within in the University," said Kevin Boatright, executive vice chancellor for University Relations. "Now we're looking to see, 'Is that something that Kansas Public Radio could be a part of?'"
Janet Campbell, station manager for KANU, 91.5 FM, did not want to comment on a potential alliance because she said she hadn't heard enough about it
Gentry stressed that no decisions about KJHK's future had been made and weren't likely to be made soon.
"Tough times call for some creative thinking," said Gary Hawke, the station's general manager. "I think the executive staff of KJHK and I are anxious that KJHK remain a vibrant, healthy student radio station."
Hawke thought some of the options available to KJHK would actually be beneficial to the station.
Both Hawke and Station Manager Bill Colburn said they wanted to preserve the tradition of the station but understood that times at the University were difficult.
"Personally I think everybody at KJ would like to keep things the way they are just because it's more stable and we have a long history at the j-school," Colburn said.
Despite the uncertainty, Colburn said he wasn't concerned about the future of the station.
"I was impressed by Dean Gentry's concern for the student body," said Colburn, about their previous meetings. "He wants to do what he feels is best for the journalism department and for KU, but we're not some renegade thing that nobody is listening to."

Harry Potter brings magic to classes
By Louise Stauffer
lstauffer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
It may be basketball season on the court, but in some classrooms Quidditch is the preferred sport.
Quidditch is the most popular sport played in the magical world of the Harry Potter books. The books, intended for children, have captured the attention of all ages, including lecturer Leah Hattemer. Hattemer uses the first book of the
series Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, in her Children's Literature class. Hattemer said she chose the book because of the themes it emphasizes.
Hattemer said most of her students liked the book. Those who didn't found it silly and thought the plot was underdeveloped in some parts, she said.
"It's about good versus evil, it teaches that friendship is all important, and that the individual person can succeed despite all his problems," she said.
She has included Harry Potter and
the Sorcerer's Stone, in her curriculum since last semester.
"It belongs there," she said.
Alice Emanuel, Hull, England, junior said she had read the book in a class and had seen the movie.
"I think it's great because it's got kids reading again," she said.
But not everyone has gotten caught up in the Harry Potter fanfare.
Jeff Cary, Leavenworth senior, said he was oblivious to the whole trend.
Scott Silverman and Luke Greene don't have much interest in Harry Potter, but not because they don't like wizards and magic. The Overland Park juniors are die-hard fans of The Lord of the Rings series.
"It's a children's book," he said.
"We even have the date the next movie comes out marked in our planners," said Silverman.
"There was never anything like this when I was a kid, nothing ever turned into a movie phenomenon."
And despite the books' commercial
appeal to children and adults, Hattemer said it's still good literature.

Worker injures leg at KU construction site
A construction worker fell about 15 feet at the Learned Hall construction site yesterday.
Deputy Chief Mark Bradford of Lawrence-Douglas County Fire and Medical said emergency workers had responded about 4:15 p.m. yesterday. A construction worker working at the excavation site had fallen 15 feet and had hit some scaffolding during the fall, Bradford said. Because of the nature of the fall, additional units were used, he said.
Emergency workers used ropes and other rescue equipment to remove the worker from the excavation site.
Bradford said the construction worker had suffered a broken leg from the fall. He was transported to Lawrence Memorial Hospital.
Two students injured in collision with bus
Two KU students were taken to area hospitals late Wednesday after their vehicle rear-ended a charter bus on Iowa Street, Sgt. Mike Pattrick said.
Roger Barnes, resident of Kansas City, Mo., was stopped in the southbound lane on Iowa Street waiting to turn left onto University Drive at 11:22 p.m., Patrick said. A green 1996 Saturn, driven by Jason Anthony Barker, struck the charter bus in the rear, he said.
Barker, Wichita freshman, was taken bvair ambulance to the University of
Kansas Medical Center, where he was in critical condition yesterday. His passenger, Jasitjan Dhaliwal, Cove Burr, Ill., freshman, was taken by ambulance to Lawrence Memorial Hospital, where he was treated and released.
The charter bus, which had no passengers, is owned by Kincaid Coachlines, Kansas City, Kan. The driver, Barnes, was not injured.

Prestige oil tanker spill threatens northwest Spain
NOIA, Spain — With high winds and Atlantic Ocean currents carrying another "black tide" of sludge from a major fuel oil spill toward shore, residents of northwest Spain worked yesterday to minimize possible damage.
Authorities deployed more oilblocking barriers outside ports and rivers open to the ocean. Soldiers, environmentalists and volunteers cleaned beaches from last week's spill
The fuel oil leaked from the Bahamas-flagged tanker Prestige in several spills starting Nov. 13 when it cracked its hull during a storm.
The ship broke in half and sank Tues day about 150 miles off Cape Finisterre, carrying most of its 20 million gallon cargo to the ocean floor.
Spain's environmental minister on Wednesday estimated economic damages so far at $42 million. Fishing in the area generates about $330 million annually, and has been banned since earlier this week.
Defense Minister Federico Trillo disclosed Wednesday that Spain had considered bombing the ship with military jets, the aim being to sink it or burn the fuel. Now officials say they're hopeful the oil sank intact with the Prestige and would solidify in the frigid cold and high pressure 2.2 miles below sea level
Prestige's cargo was more than twice the amount of crude oil spilled by the Exxon Valdez off Alaska in 1989, one of the world's worst environmental disasters. Tens of thousands of sea birds and other wildlife died in that incident.

University energy should catch the winds of change
The University of Kansas is often seen as something of a dinosaur in our commitment to the environment, but now we have a chance to support green technology and save some green in the process.
KU is considering a plan to draw its power from one thing Kansas has in abundance: wind.
Kansas Wind Power LLC has received approval from the Butler County planning commission to build a wind farm near Leon and is offering a contract to KU.
Student Senate has already voiced their support, and it is now being addressed by the KU administration.
Currently KU gets electricity from Westar's coal plants.
Over coal, wind has the advantages of being cheaper and vastly more environment-friendly. Wind power is sustainable; it will never choke the air with pollution and it will never run out as long as there is sunlight and air, unlike any fossil fuel.
There are a few problems.
For one thing, the proposed wind farm is all the way out in Leon, and it will cost money to use the power lines to bring it here.
Kansas Wind Power LLC is not yet sure how much that would cost, but is certain that in total what we would pay is
less than what we now pay for coal.
A more difficult problem is that the wind doesn't blow all the time. Kansas Wind Power LLC is looking into means of storing some of the power it generates so that it could continue to provide electricity on calm days, but has no current plans to that effect.
This means KU would have to have a joint contract to get most of their power through Kansas Wind but still rely on Westar when it is calm.
KU's annual electricity bill comes to about $5 million, and in these lean budget times any savings helps.
Some wind power is better than none, especially if it's cheaper than the alternative.
If KU agrees to take advantage of this opportunity, we could be getting our energy from the wind as soon as early 2004. Because this is an outside company, KU will not have to shoulder any amount of the construction cost for the power plant.
We should take advantage of this opportunity to support a cheaper and more environmentally sound emerging technology. Students can voice their opinions on the matter by contacting KU's utilities manager, Cindy Strecker.

PERSPECTIVES
Maggie Koerth/Kansan
Perfection doesn't really exist, you are your own best roommate
Everybody has some sort of imprudent fear; thunder, locus, heights, even being scared of the dark.
COMMENTARY
But there is one fear that is beyond doubt the cause of shaky hands, nervous stutters, and a queasy stomach: the bad roommate.
COMMENTARY
Marla Keown opinion@kansan.com
Whether you are paired up with one at the dorms or you choose one with your own bad judgment, a bad roommate can make for a hellish year. My own experience has proven to me that only you can be your perfect roommate.
My first year at college, I underwent the infamous random roommate situation at the dorms.
I filled out a sheet, listing my hobbies, interests, what I wanted in a roommate and what I didn't want and got the exact opposite match.
I spent many nights in friends' rooms while my perfect match went to town with random guys.
Two years ago, I signed a lease with four other friends, three of which were guys.
I woke up in the mornings to her favorite country music blaring in the background. And I had to endlessly listen to her and her friends complain about the guys in their lives and their ever-growing asses.
After spending a year in hell, I decided living alone with another female was not a great idea.
After having lived with a female for an entire year in the dorms, I rationalized that guys would be easier to live with than girls.
While the emotional issues were never raised, the cleanliness factor was way below par. I felt more like a hired maid than a rent-paying resident.
Eventually, I turned in my cleaning uniform and went on strike.
I bought all disposable dishware and either ate out, called delivery or ate microwavable dinners. A couple of weeks later the guys got the clue and started cleaning up after themselves. While this strategy was hard on my wallet for awhile, the results proved to be worthwhile.
I never ventured out of my room except for emergencies like using the bathroom, eating or going to a party next door.
All this time, I vowed to find the perfect roommate.
Instead, I found a cozy one bedroom apartment to share with my ideal roommate, Sammy the cat.
I don't have to worry about her bringing home any strays to shack up with. If she starts to get fatter, I don't have to listen to any whining.
She listens to my CD's intently and doesn't complain when I channel surf. Although my perfect roommate consists of me, myself, and a cat named Sammy, the idea of coming home to a perfect setting is relaxing.
Picking a perfect roommate is a next to impossible feat.
There are no certain guidelines or a helpful handbook to make the picking process easier or even satisfactory.
Reliable sources such as friends or relatives can turn out to be flops.
Friends of friends can become a person's worst nightmare. Even a topnotch interview session with random queries from an ad in the newspaper can become a nightmare in the months to follow.
While living alone can be expensive it is well worth the relief of stress.
Finding the flawless roommate is like winning a $20 million dollar jackpot. It just doesn't happen.
Instead of trying to find the winning ticket, students should learn how to manage their cash shortages.

Refugees not in Kansas, but U.S. policy needs to change
couple of weeks ago I started hearing rumors. Old friends kept asking if I'd heard that a plane loaded with Haitian refugees had landed in Salina.
Naturally, being curious I decided to contact The Salina Journal to find out more.
As it turns out, the "story" was actually a satirical opinion column on Nov. 3 titled "Cheap therapy," that theorized what might have happened if Haitian refugees had run aground in Salina as they did in Florida on Oct. 29.
According to these stories, a broken plane had landed at the Salina airport and dozens of refugees had run amok through the streets.
Although the column wasn't a true story, the plight of would-be Haitian immigrants is a very real issue. The Coast Guard estimates that last year more than 2,000 Haitians attempted to reach the United States. Nearly all of those were turned away.
Reasons for leaving Haiti vary, but Kiran Jayaram, a Kansas City, Mo., graduate student, said it mostly has to do with economics.
Jayaram spent years studying Haiti and now teaches Haitian language classes at the University of Kansas. He said that inflation has risen in Haiti and that the standard of living is extremely low.
Unfortunately, the U.S. grants asylum to political refugees, but not economic ones. Any Haitian refugees caught on U.S.

shores are shipped home.
However, the U.S. maintains a double standard for Caribbean refugees.
While Haitians are consistently turned away, any Cuban who reaches American shores is virtually entitled to legal residency within a year, thanks to a 1966 law allowing political asylum for Cubans. Although official reports maintain that
"You can't separate politics from economics," he said.
Jayaram said thousands of people fled Haiti in 1991 after a coup overpowered democratically elected president Jean-Bertrand Aristide. Instead of reaching safety, most ended up in Guantanamo Bay, surrounded by 10-foot barbed wire fences and terrorized by rats.
Cuban refugees are seeking such action, and thus, are different from Haitians, Jayaram said such reasoning doesn't make sense.
In fact, Haiti's economic troubles are mostly due to an unstable political system plagued by dictatorships, coups and alleged election corruption.
Since 1994, both the American Anthropological Association and John C. Faval
ora, Archbishop of Miami, have come out in favor of allowing Haitian refugees into the U.S.
Even Jeb Bush, the President's brother and governor of Florida, agreed the policy was unfair, according to a Nov. 4 story in The Christian Science Monitor.
Too much is at stake for this issue to die just because it has dropped from newspapers' headlines and the minds of satirical columnists.
Students learn about U.S. policy toward Haiti and refugees in general. Once you have all the facts, contact your newly elected representatives and ask them to change this unfair policy.

"Fifteen!" Ember Perry yells from the audience.
"Beauty and the Breast," says Trevor Burdett, after removing the number 15 from the clothesline.
Trevor Burdett, Silver Lake freshman, carries Beth Chronister, Topeka freshmen, during rehearsal of the Hashinger Hall fall play. Students had a final rehearsal on Wednesday.
Audience members dictate the order of Too much light makes the baby go blind, a series of 30 plays performed in 60 minutes for the Hashinger fall play. The play addresses comical and serious topics ranging from a spoof on big-budget action movies to rape.
Burdett, Silver Lake freshman, and the other seven cast members, all freshman residents of Hashinger, will depend on audience members like Perry during the show at 7:30 tonight and tomorrow night.
Perry, Soldier freshman, was
part of the four-person audience at the dress rehearsal Wednesday night. Audience participation kept the show spontaneous, Perry said.
"I really hope my minute is almost up," Perry said at the 50-second mark.
One of the cast members made Perry get on stage and speak for a minute straight.
The play gives the cast the opportunity to enjoy a different type of play, as well.
"It's unlike anything I've ever seen or done," said Mike Feld, Denver freshman.
Feld joined the cast after a last-minute dropout from one of the actors last Thursday. He said the play's content helped him get prepared in the short time period.
"I had a lot of fun, and that made it really easy to get motivated," Feld said.
The other actors spent the last month and a half preparing for the play, said Will Russell, director of the play.
Preparation was important for the play, the Chicago freshman said,"because we're so dependent on the audience."
"If you're obnoxious, come to the play," said Jen Bedore, Derby freshman.
to get more out of the play than shouting out numbers and interacting with the crew, Bedore said.
But the cast wants the audience
"It's not one of the those plays where people come and then go 'Oh that was nice,'" Bedore said.

The Zeta Tau Alpha colony is on its way to becoming the 14th sorority at the University of Kansas.
Zeta Tau Alpha signed 170 women on its bid day in September. Since then, 23 women have chosen not to continue with the colony.
Established sorority chapters usually gain 50 new members
Julia Hill, national president for Zeta Tau Alpha, said the attrition rate was anticipated going into any colonization process.
each year, and of those 50, three to five women or 6 percent leave, said Angie Carr, coordinator for fraternity and sorority life. Zeta Tau Alpha has had 13 percent of its members leave.
Carr said it was more work than some women had realized, and Zeta Tau Alpha had been active in the community since its inception.
"Going into a sorority, a lot of the women were thinking they wouldn't have to do that much—Rock Chalk alone is an immense amount of work," said Andrea Long. Zeta Tau Alpha member.

"I don't know if youaverage student would steal a parking permit, but I'm sure the average student would be tempted to do it," he said.
An unlocked car may have tempted someone to take one KU student's parking permit.
Last month when Tom Ortinau, St. Louis senior, left his car window down, someone stole his yellow parking permit.
Ortinau is one of 14 KU students and employees who have reported their parking permit stolen to the KU Public Safety Office this semester.
All of the thefts have occurred because the car door was unlocked or the window was down, Lt. Schuyler Bailey of KU Public Safety Office said.
"These are all crimes of opportunity," Baileysaid. "The person didn't have to do anything but walk up and take them."
Bailey said the number of thefts varied from semester to semester, but that parking permit theft was common.
"It's fulfilling a need," he said. "Everyone needs a parking permit. They don't think they're likely to get caught."
When people report their parking permits stolen, the Public Safety Office advises them to notify the parking department, too. The department keeps a running list of stolen parking permits, he said.
If the permit holder's hang tag was stolen, the department would issue a temporary pass. Donna Hultine; interim director of the parking department, said.
The permit holder would have to purchase another permit after three weeks, she said.
Almost all stolen permits are hang tags, he said. Sticker permits are designed to shred when removed, she said.
When the parking department's employees checked a permit number, their electronic devices would tell them if the permit was stolen, Hulttine said.
Hultine said her department had seen forged permits, and sometimes the poor reproduction was offensive.
"We've had some that have been just done in crayon," she said. "It just hurts our feelings."
When the department's employees catch a fake or a stolen permit, the car will is towed and the owner will be issued a $65 ticket. The department would then notify the KU Public Safety Office.
Bailey said the charge could range from possession of stolen property to burglary, which is a felony. Officers haven't arrested anyone for stealing a parking permit this semester, he said.
"Lock your cars," Bailey said. "A student could walk by and just think 'Oh, wow, it's a parking permit.' It takes no time and it's easy."

Lettersaid trafficway ruling
By Lindsey Hodel
hodel@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Decision makers in the fate of the South Lawrence Trafficway are asking for feedback in approving construction of the highway through the Haskell-Baker Wetlands.
The late of the location of the South Lawrence Trafficway still rests with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, which is sending letters to 150 interest groups. The purpose of the letters is to gather information about how a 32nd Street alignment would affect historic sites in the area, namely, Haskell Indian Nations University and the wetlands, said Bob Smith, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers project manager.
The 32nd Street alignment proposal from Kansas Department of Transportation has met opposition from the Haskell community and environmental advocates. The Corps is also considering an alternative 42nd Street route going south of the Wakarusa and around the wetlands.
"What we found was that building along the 32nd Street alignment with a buffer wall would be less noisy than a 42nd Street alignment." Smith said.
He said with a 42nd Street alignment, Louisiana Street and Haskell Avenue would still become main traffic arteries because of the growing population. Eventually they'd have to be converted to four-lane roads anyway, Smith said. He said the roads would create more disturbance for Haskell University and the wetlands than the eventual construction of the highway along 32nd Street.
The Corps also recommended moving portions of Haskell Avenue and Louisiana Street to make room for replacement wetlands the transportation department promised to build.
Kansas' state historic preservation society received the Corps' letter yesterday, and will decide whether the Corps' proposal effectively protects the historical sites, said Will Banks, state historic preservation society archaeologist.
He said the preservation society
would probably agree on the disturbance caused by the 52nd Street alignment but would not comment on its opinion of the Corps' corrective measures.
Robin Crawford, Topeka senior, sympathizes with the Native American land issues at stake, but sees benefits in constructing the highway.
"It would be nice for traffic, especially with the Home Depot and Best Buy opening on 31st Street," she said.
Even though no official decision has been made, Brett Ramby, Lawrence senior, was disappointed by the recommendations from the Corps. He said he thought the Corps did not take into account the ecological damage that the potential highway could cause.
"This is a final straw for me. The wetlands are the most significant natural area within the whole region," he said.
The Corps plans to make a final decision on the alignment of the highway by the end of this year.

Sebelius review faces criticism
The Associated Press
TOPEKA — Governor-elect Kathleen Sebelius' top-to-bottom review of state government began this week with the public still on the outside, unable to look in.
That's despite statements from one of Sebellius' review team leaders that his proceedings would be open to the public.
Sen. David Adkins, R-Leawood, had said a meeting of his public safety team on Wednesday
at the Kansas State Historical Society would be open.
However, when reporters tried get into the meeting they were turned away by team member Randy Rathbun, a former U.S. attorney for Kansas.
Adkins was in Wichita and participated in the Topeka meeting by teleconference. He didn't return several messages left by The Associated Press on his cell phone and at his law office.
Sebelius announced five review teams last week. Her
spokeswoman said the decision to close the discussions would not change until after Sebelius takes office on Jan. 13.
"We really consider the individual meetings part of the transition process," said spokeswoman Nicole Corcoran-Basso. "We want discussions to be as frank and open as possible. These are not policy making or decision making groups."
The teams would continue to meet following Sebelius' Jan. 13 inauguration.

Good landlord key to apartment shopping
By Matt Stumpff
mstumpff@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Size doesn't matter. But making the right moves does.
Students' landlords vary from big businesses to independent landlords who operate one house. Tenants should take personal preference into account when choosing their landlords, said James Dunn, president of the Landlords of Lawrence.
He said students should ask the correct questions before moving in.
"For example, ask about their future plans for the building," Dunn said. "If they are thinking
about selling the property to the University, they probably aren't going to be too interested in replacing the windows or addressing other complaints."
Brian Eiswirth, St. Louis senior, said he noticed a different atmosphere when he switched from a management company to an independent landlord last year.
He said his landlord was visible but not intrusive.
"He never complained about anything to us, even though the police did once," Elswirth said. "He was a pretty cool guy."
Eiswirth said his landlord was good about responding to repair requests.
"When we had problems we would call him and he'd be over the next day," he said. "We got to keep the whole deposit, too, and we didn't even clean that much. We just vacuumed."
Eiswirth said his previous landlord had responded to tenants quickly as well but didn't communicate as much.
Dunn said many independent landlords had a hands-on relationship with tenants.
He said the same environment could be expected of bigger landlords with active on-site managers.
Landlords handle repairs differently. Bigger landlords typically use their own repair staffs.
Other landlords rely on independent contractors most of the time. Dunn said.
Tuckaway management exclusively uses its own staff for landscaping and repairs, said Jessica Teague, manager at Tuckaway management.
Teague said she knew most of the tenants despite the 250 apartments she oversaw.
"I either know their name or the apartment they live in," Teague said.
Legal services for students didn't notice a trend favoring one landlord type over the other, said Michele Kessler, associate director.
Kessler said one situation that
caused problems was when the owners of the homes used management companies to act as landlord.
"If you want a repair done, they have to contact the owner and convince the owner that they need to spend the money on the property, and a lot of owners don't agree."
But, Kessler said, most of the time tenants' relationships with their landlords depended more on chance.
"They vary from person to person," she said. "Just like anyone else, there are goods one and bad ones."

translate into support for higher education."
Edited by Matt Norton
More budget cuts may affect the long-term plan for how to spend tuition money.
Hemenway said tuition was raised with the intention it would be used to improve the University, not cover what the
state budget could not Money from this year's tuition increase has been used to raise graduate teaching assistant salaries, repair classrooms and improve technology.
But aside from GTAS, no KU faculty members received salary increases. Without more state funding, higher education is in danger, Hemenway said.
"Faculty can understand this year there weren't any salary
increases. They understand the state's in a tough place," Hemenway said. "We can't go another year without salary increases because we'll start to lose faculty."
Maska said deeper budget cuts could eventually require the shifting of tuition money from enhancements that are being done now to necessary maintenance.
"If our professors leave us,
we're going to struggle whether we have online enrollment or not," she said.
Students who want to become involved with SLAB or have ideas about raising student awareness about the budget situation should contact Maska by phone at the Student Senate office at 864-3710 or by e-mail at slab@ku.edu.

"It's like a party for a big family," he said.
Even domestic students attended the event.
Joel Bales, Abilene senior,

"I get to learn so much about different cultures," he said.
Enzo Giordano, Milan, Italy, freshman, said he came to the celebration for a different reason — "To eat."
International desserts, including Mexican chocolate mousse tart, German cheese-cakes, flan and baklava were donated by area restaurants.
While guests enjoyed the sweets and the company, the first International Student Organization Service Award was presented to the Brazilian Student Association.

Kaplan CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
The United States should encourage Third World countries to establish institutions and gain legitimacy with the public before preparing for a democratic regime transition, Kaplan said. He cited the collapse of Russia in the '90s as an example of a country that failed to promote stability after drastically shifting from totalitarianism to democracy.
Mike Khadavi, Overland Park sophomore, said Kaplan's speech took a realistic outlook on the fate of world politics.
"I liked the way he talked about being open-minded towards future events in the Middle East," he said.
Kaplan also spoke yesterday at another forum about Afghanistan. He will speak about the Middle East at 10 a.m. today at the Summerfield Room in the Adams Alumni Center.

SPORTS COMMENTARY

The Big 12, an overview of the sports
A few notes from the men's basketball team's win over Holy Cross, and some other stuff:
Winning by 24 is a nice enough way to open the season, but this year's 'Hawks need someone to assume the Drew Gooden trash-talking role. This team needs someone to get in David Harrison's face and tell him how much his team is losing by, somebody who'll publicly refer to a huge win over Mizzou as an "ass-kicking."
Arrogance is a character flaw? Not in sports. When you're in direct competition, you have to believe you're better than the opposition every time you step on the floor. Roy Williams' mid-'90s teams didn't have a mouthy player who spread that kind of inflated confidence across his team not even Paul Pierce
and those teams underachieved in the NCAA Tournament. Last year's team had Gooden and reached the Final Four.
So who should step up to become the designated smack-talker? Keith Langford may be the most confident player on the team, but he carries more of a quiet confidence. I can't see him spewing venom about an opposing team in his postgame comments. Nick Collison or Kirk Hinrich? Too Iowa. I nominate Simien — he's good, he's intimidating and he knows it.
I said in a previous column that if Bryant Nash worked hard on his game, he could turn into Nick Bradford. That's exactly who he looked like against Holy Cross, only with better hops. As long as Nash uses his speed on the break, crashes the boards and avoids putting the ball on the floor, he'll be a handy role player, like Bradford.
Entering the year, Jeff Graves and Jeff Hawkins were expected to be the top two players off the bench, but Nash played 16 well-deserved minutes Tuesday compared to 17 combined for the two Jeffs. Is Graves really so out of the loop that he can only play eight minutes? I doubt it — he did commit three fouls in his limited time, but he also bagged three rebounds. Williams has to ask Graves to play 12 minutes or more per game, because he needs another post player. No disrespect to Moulaye Niang, but he wasn't even expected to play this year, and right now he's B.J. Williams Lite. Kansas needs Graves' space-eating abilities inside.
It's about time the ridiculous standards for jersey retirement at Allen Fieldhouse were loosened to include more Kansas greats. The old standards were far too strict, especially the one that included only four-time All-Americans. You might as well ask players to keep their eyes open when they sneeze.
Kentucky and North Carolina, the only two schools with more all-time men's basketball victories than Kansas, both have more than 30 men's jerseys retired, dwarfing Kansas' total of eight. Pierce and Raef LaFrentz were both among the five best players in Kansas history, and their numbers belong in the rafters. So does Darnell Valentine's.
Thanks to the Kansas football medical staff for not allowing coach Mark Mangino to "convince" you to allow Bill Whittemore back on the field for the team's final three games. Maybe Mangino's tough-guy talk is only talk, but it'd be a lot more reassuring if he took a more cautious stance when important players got hurt. Let's see Mangino play with a torn MCL — in fact, let's see Mangino play at all. That would be funny.

Freshman Moulaye Niang ready to play as Jayhawks face unfamiliar opponent
Freshman Moulaye Niang must adjust not only to life in Kansas but also to life as a Kansas basketball player.
By Jessica Scott
jscott@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
Niang, a 6-foot-10 forward, hails from Senegal, West Africa. After moving to San Diego for his junior year of high school, Niang averaged 16 points and 9 rebounds as a California prep superstar. During tonight's 6 p.m. game against UNC-Greensboro (1-0), Niang will get an opportunity to prove what he has learned in a short time from Kansas coach Roy Williams.
"My game is improving every day," Niang said. "I think the fact that he's putting me in the game is because I'm doing things he wants me to do."
Williams said Niang had surpassed his early expectations, but he still had room for improvement. For the Jayhawks to reach the level of play that Williams envisions, Niang must contribute twice as much off the bench.
"I thought that Moulaye would be able to play for us before he left here for sure, but I thought it might be a little down the road because he just hasn't played enough basketball," Williams said. "For how hard he works and how quickly he picks up things, I think the timing of that is a lot quicker than I thought it was going to be."
The Spartans come to Lawrence after defeating Wagner 84-65 in the first round of the tournament. The team hit 62 percent of its attempts, led by 6-6 junior James May, who ended with 21 points and nine rebounds. Kansas point guard Aaron Miles said he knew little about UNC-Greensboro.
"I don't know about them, but I've heard they kind of want to play us a little bit," Miles, a sophomore, said. "Everybody always wants to try and knock down the people on top."
Williams is not familiar with this team either, although he

Miners to face Jayhawks
By Doyle Murphy

What?
They took a beating during last year's conference season. You can count their total wins from a year ago on one hand. They were undefeated through two exhibition games this season. They're not the Kansas Jayhawks.
KANSAS
That's right. "They" are the Miners from the University of Texas-El Paso, and — like the Jayhawks — they are looking to turn their fortune when the teams meet at 2:05 p.m. Sunday at Allen Fieldhouse. The game will be the official start of the 2002-2003 season for the Jayhawks.
Kansan file photo
It will also be the first time the two teams have met, but that doesn't mean they are unfamiliar with each other.
UTEP coach Keitha Green hails from Oxford, Kan., and coached five years at Independence Community College in Independence, Kan. Her assistant, Darren Brunson, is from Wichita
Dragana Zoric went to Independence Community College, Kia Dowell and Noni Wharemate went to Fort Scott, Angie McGee went to Highland, and Valida Zagursky went to Seward.
There are also five players on the Miners roster from Kansas community colleges.
Despite all the Kansas connections,
Crystal Kemp, freshman forward/center, looks for an open teammate under the basket. Kemp said she was ready to play the Miners from the University of Texas-El Paso at 2:05 p.m. Sunday at Allen Fieldhouse.
UTEP has a decidedly international feel. Four of the Miners were born outside of North America.
"When you bring international players in, they bring a different rhythm to their game," Kansas coach Marian Washington said. "The thing that we can expect is that they are going to play us, man, all the way through. They're

going to have an up-tempo style of play. I think they're going to be pretty good-sized players out there. They'll probably have some good outside shooters."
One thing is for sure, the Miners will be bigger than any team the Jayhawks faced during the preseason.
UTEP has eight players 5-foot-10 or taller. Junior center Lily Ramirez is a powerful 6 foot 5 and sophomore center Ingrid Goslin isn't far behind at 6 foot4.
That is no concern to the Jayhawks forward/center Crystal Kemp. The 6-foot-2 freshman plays a physical style of basketball and is looking forward to playing some bigger players.
"It's always good to know you can play against some players your own size," Kemp said after Wednesday's practice. "It's really getting me ready to go into the Big 12 season."
Kemp averaged 12.5 points and six rebounds per game during exhibition wins against the Solna Vikings and Fort Hays State University.

Volleyball in midst of critical matches

The team is still far away from clearing the smoke screen.
Kansas volleyball coach Ray Bechard said the team would see where it stood when the smoke cleared in the last weeks of the season.
The Jayhawks (18-8 overall, 9-8 Big 12 Conference) will play a ranked opponent for the second straight match. The game is at 7 p.m. Saturday at the Horejsi Family Athletics Center when they host No. 22 Missouri (23-12, 6-5).

The Missouri match is in the middle of a three-match stretch against ranked opponents. Kansas's last match was a 3-0 loss to No. 5 Nebraska in Lincoln, Neb. After the Missouri match, the Jayhawks play No. 19
Ray Bechard
jayhawks play 14.1 Kansas State, Wednesday in Manhattan
Kansas is 2-4 vs. ranked teams and 5-3 against conference opponents in Lawrence this season.
"It's a difficult time in some stand-points, but it's also an exciting time to know there's still something to play for." Bechard said. "We have their full attention at practice. A big win late in the season seems to carry more impact as you look at the NCAA tournament."
Freshman middle blocker Josiane Lima, reigning Big 12 Player of the Week, did not play in the Nebraska match because of shin splints. She is still questionable to play the Missouri match. If Lima cannot play, senior middle blocker Kylie Thomas will start in her place for the second straight match. Thomas had eight kills vs. Nebraska
"Lima is a very important player to us. But we have very good, very capable middle blockers here to fill in," sophomore outside hitter Lindsey Morris said. "We will still play with the same intensity for the rest of the season."
Morris said the Missouri match was important to get into the NCAA Tournament, and gave the team a more incentive to play its intense rival at home.
Missouri is on a three-match winning streak, including a 3-0 sweep of Baylor Wednesday at the Hearnes Center in Columbia, Mo. The Tigers are second in the Big 12 in kills with 6.44 per game and assists with 14.95 per game and lead in service aces with 1.7 per game. Senior Christi Myers is seventh in the conference, averaging 3.92 kills per game and junior Mary Lauren Smith is eighth with 3.78 kills per game. Senior setter Lindsey Hunter leads the conference with a 13.65 assists per game average.
"There's been some attention to the Border War series," Bechard said. "I don't think that will be a motivating factor. The motivating factor is we're playing a very good team and fighting to get into the NCAA tournament."

Baseball recruits may be a top-25 class
By Steve Schmidt
sschmidt@kansan.com
Kansas sportswriter
Kansas might have signed a top 25 class without the help of Roy Williams.
On Wednesday, Kansas baseball coach Ritch Price unveiled the names of twelve recruits who will make up the class of 2004. Two of the players will suit up in crimson and blue next semester.
Junior college players and university transfers fill 11 of the 12 slots in the new class. Price said he wanted players who were able to contribute to the squad
from game one.
"We came in with some very definite holes that we needed to fill," Price said. "We focused on junior college players because we feel we have to win immediately. We can't take two or three years developing high school players."
He cited losing five seniors after this season and possibly three juniors to the 2003 Major League Baseball draft as key reasons for the sense of urgency.
The coach said he thought this class would be ranked in the top 25 by Collegiate Baseball Newspaper.
The 2004 recruiting class includes Tanner Munsey, who was drafted in 2000
by the Minnesota Twins but opted for the junior college route. He was named AllRegion at the Community College of Rhode Island, batting .281 on the year.
"Tanner is a big, strong, physical catcher with an outstanding throwing arm. He will add much needed depth behind the plate for us," Price said.
Kenny Falconer has also been recruited to add to the Jayhawks' arsenal.
"We expect Kenny to make an immediate impact in our program," Price said. "He has the potential to be a high draft pick in the upcoming professional draft."
Two signed players should help add power in particular to the heart of the
lineup next year. Price said Andy Scholl and Mike Dudley will probably bat in the third and fourth spots.
Scholl took home New Mexico High School Gatorade Player of the Year as a high school senior. He was drafted by the Kansas City Royals in the 45th round last summer but decided to play for Lamar Community College. There he hit finished hitting. 401 with 16 home runs and 67 RBIs.
"Andy is one of the finest junior college hitters in the country," Price said.

BOULDER, Colo. - Richard Simmons and Billy Banks would surely be proud of Colorado's David Harrison.

Crediting a rigorous offseason workout program with helping him to lose 30 pounds, the sophomore's story closely resembles that of most late-night infomercials.
"I feel a lot better compared to last season. I'm running and jumping a lot better this season," said Harrison, who dropped to 250 pounds to go along with his 7-foot frame. "I still need to assert myself more on defense (this season)."
A
In his first season at Colorado, Harrison scored a team-leading 13.9 points per game and was voted to the Big 12 all-freshman team. But Harrison battled injuries and fatigue all season and was often overmatched defensively against quicker opponents in the post. Foul trouble frequently forced Harrison to spend extended periods of time on the bench.
An improved Harrison ought to be a scary thought for Colorado's opponents this year. Twice Tennessee's Mr. Basketball in high school, Harrison became the first McDonald's All-American to commit to Colorado since Chauncey Billups in 1951 when he chose the Buffaloes last year over North Carolina, Duke and Vanderbilt.
Colorado coach Ricardo Patton believes a higher fitness level will help enhance these facets of Harrison's game as well as his ability to get back on defense.
Realistically, first place in the conference may turn out to be a bit out of reach for Harrison and the Buffalooes. With No. 2 Kansas, No. 3 Oklahoma and No. 4 Texas occupying three of the top four spots in the preseason Associated Press Top 25, the Big 12 is as deep and talented as any conference in the country. A move to the upper tier, however, would be a big step in the right direction for a program that hasn't finished higher than seventh in the Big 12 five years running.
"Last year at this point we were worrying about his back problems, but now he's been
"I don't like that at all," said Harrison of the ninth place projected conference finish for Colorado by the coaches. "We finished ninth last year, and that means that everything that we did in the offseason means nothing. I think that was a real disrespectful pick, and at the end of the season I want to be able to say we're first."
working through everything we have done," said Patton. "He's been working really hard. He runs the ball up and down the floor really well and that's going to pay dividends."
A new attitude also appears to have accompanied the slimmer Harrison. In a preseason game against EA Sports Southwest All-Stars, the center engaged in a heated argument with former Kansas forward Nick Bradford that resulted in technical fouls for both players. After a disappointing season in which the Buffaloes lost players as well as games, the plain-spoken sophomore has returned with a chip on his shoulder and much to prove.

West Virginia upset sends students into frenzied activity
Morgantown, W.Va. — West Virginia students set fires on campus and hundreds tore down the goal posts at Mountainer Field after the football team's road upset of No. 13 Virginia Tech on Wednesday night.
Emergency dispatchers reported that at one point there were fires burning throughout the city.
Three people were arrested, but police did not disclose the charges. A dispatcher said the department would issue no more information yesterday morning.
A few students calmly gathered around one fire, rubbing their hands together to stay warm.
Others were more raucous, vandalizing road signs, jumping on the hoods of cars and yelling obscenities at police officers.

'Hawks face unfamiliar foe
Kansas to play UNC-Greensboro for first time
By Kelly McNearney
kmcnearney@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Ask anyone in Lawrence about the University of North Carolina-Greensboro men's basketball team and you may not get much of a response.
Even Nick Collison, senior forward, said he didn't know tonight's opponent.
"We usually don't know much about a new team until the day before, a couple days before we play," he said.
Kansas plays UNC-Greensboro at 6.00 p.m. tonight in Allen Fieldhouse in the second round of the Preseason NIT.
The two teams have never met before and have very little in common.
Kansas is 16-1 all-time in Preseason NIT play, including a record of 15-0 under coach Roy Williams.
This is the first year UNC
Greensboro has ever played in the Preseason NIT. The team comes into tonight's game with a 1-0 record after defeating Wagner 84-65 Tuesday.
Kansas, with its No. 2 ranking, is the highest ranked team UNC-Greensboro has ever played in the regular season. The Spartans played No. 1 seeded Stanford in the first round of the 2001 NCAA tournament, but lost 89-60.
UNC-Greensboro's three-year record under coach Fran McCaffery is 54-36. The team went 20-11 last season.
Williams has coached Kansas to a 389-93 record in his 15th year as coach. Last season, the Jayhawks were 33-4. Williams' 80 percent winning percentage gives him the highest winning percentage among active coaches.
Both teams boast the return of two starting seniors.
Senior Jayhawks Collison and Kirk Hinrich are both preseason All-American candidates.
UNC-Greensboro cherishes senior forwards Luke Boythe and James Maye and last season's leading scorer. Maye is a preseason all-Southern Conference selection.
The Jayhawks are accustomed to playing before a packed house of 16,300 crazed fans at Allen Fieldhouse. The Spartans call Fleming Gymnastium home, with its capacity of 2,320.
UNC-Greensboro has a basketball history of 35 years.
Former Kansas coach James Naismith invented the game and coached Kansas' first season in 1898.
A search for a UNC-Greensboro alum in the NBA will come up empty. None are currently on an NBA roster, and no Spartan has ever been drafted.
Sixty-two Jayhawks have played in the NBA, six currently.
But history and arena size don't win basketball games. And after last year's preseason flub, this Kansas team won't count anyone out.

"Mike is one of the top offensive junior college players in the country." Price said "We expect him to make an immediate impact in the Big 12."
Aside from scoring runs, Kansas picked up several players known for defending them.
John Fumagalli put up a 2.99 ERA at Neosho Community College last season after transferring from the University of Illinois.
"John is considered one of the top lefthanded junior college pitchers in the state of Kansas," Price said. "We expect him to be in our starting rotation next year. He has the potential to be a quality Division I pitcher."
Sean Richardson was a 2001 and 2002 draftee by the Detroit Tigers. While playing catcher last season for Palomar Community College in San Diego, he was named first team All-Pacific Coast Conference and the team's MVP.
"Sean is considered by many baseball scouts to be the top junior college catcher in the state of

California," Price said. "He is a tremendous athlete and a great sign for our program. We expect him to be a team leader and a great player in the Big 12."
Price said much of the reason of landing such a promising class was because of the tireless efforts of his assistants, especially recruiting coordinator Ryan Graves, Graves hit the road often during the last couple of months and signed recruits from eight states.
"We did a lot of traveling this fall," Graves said. "We like the talent level of these guys. The game plan was trying to get quality junior college players that come in and help us immediately. We feel we needed guys to come
and step up next year."
Price said the players played an important role talking up the Kansas team.
"The reason we just signed a top 25 class is because of the players," Price said. "They've been fabulous in selling the program."
Note:
The team is still doing four on four drills, Price said, and he liked the progress his players were making. In addition, the squad has been lifting weights four times a week with morning conditioning. Jan. 11 marks the first day of full practice.

grew up in North Carolina and did his student teaching living right beside the campus.
Tonight will be a new experience for everyone, as the game marks the first meeting between these teams.
If the Jayhawks advance past the second round of the Preseason NIT, Williams said, the team will celebrate Thanksgiving in New York.
Niang said he would use this first tournament to learn about college basketball as well as American culture. Niang said he and the rest of the bench understood their role this season - help, don't hurt.
"The guys coming off the bench are doing an OK job," he said, "but we just come in to not hurt the team, play defense and rebound. We have guys that can score, so for now that's what we need to do."
Wells' attacker convicted of assault in bar fight
Edited by Nicole Roché
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — A man was convicted of assault yesterday for punching Yankees pitcher David Wells and knocking out two of his teeth during an early morning fight Sept. 7.
Rocco Graziosa was acquitted of two other charges after a weeklong trial in Manhattan Criminal Court. The jury deliberated less than three hours.
The 27-year-old Graziosa faces up to a year in jail when he is sentenced Jan. 15. He will remain free on $1,500 bail and was ordered to stay away from Wells.
It was the 6-foot-4,245-pound Wells, according to defense attorney Harry Mazurek and friends of Graziosa, who grabbed the smaller man. Graziosa struck Wells in self-defense, the lawyer contended.
But Wells testified that
Graziosa repeatedly cursed him, mocked his weight and made nasty comments about his late mother.
The 39-year-old Wells said he approached Graziosa's table to say "enough is enough," and the 5-foot-7, 150-pound bartender landed a sucker punch to his jaw. Wells insisted he never touched Graziosa.
The pitcher lost two teeth,
then cracked his head on a table
when he crumpled to the floor. Wells was bleeding from the forehead and mouth, and he required seven hours of dental work.
The jury, during Wells' time on the stand, also heard a 911 call made by the pitcher.
Wells, whose speech was unintelligible at times on the tape, testified he downed three shots of tequila during a night on the town after pitching a complete game victory a few hours earlier.

Book about president wins award
The Associated Press
NEW YORK - Master of the Senate, the third volume of Robert Caro's epic chronicle of the life and times of Lyndon Johnson, won the National Book Award for nonfiction Wednesday.
Other winners Wednesday were Julia Glass, who received the fiction prize for her novel Three Junes; Nancy Farmer, who won in the young people's literature category for The House of the Scorpion and poet Ruth Stone, who turned 87 this year, for her collection In the Next Galaxy.
I think you probably gave it to
me because I'm old," Stone said with a laugh.
Novelist Philip Roth, a twotime winner for Goodbye,
Columbus and Sabbath's Theater,
received an honorary medal.
Caro, 67, has been working on his Johnson series since the mid-1970s and has yet to reach the presidential years, the heart of a planned fourth and final volume.
Caro's first Johnson book, The Path to Power, was a National Book Award finalist in 1983.
Caro has been criticized by supporters of the late president for portraying him as little more than crude and ruthless. But there
were complaints about Master of the Senate, which follows Johnson's incredible rise from newly elected senator in the late 1940s to majority leader in 1954.
Caro had insisted from the beginning that he considered Johnson a creature of both ambition and benevolence and Master of the Senate emphasized his legislative genius in getting Congress, in 1957, to pass the first civil rights bill of the 20th century.
Winners received $10,000 and finalists $1,000. The awards are sponsored by the National Book Foundation, a nonprofit organization that runs educational outreach programs.

Sports Commentary by Doyle Murphy
No Thanksgiving break for panel
While day dreaming about long days in bed and mom's cooking, many of you may have had a frightening thought: There won't be a paper Nov. 29. That means no Kick the Kansan.
I also considered the possibility of a short vacation from my duties as football forecaster, but don't worry. The Kansan think tank has come up with a solution — a very special, one time only, Tuesday Kick the Kansan.
Here's the deal. Fill out the entry form in today's or Monday's newspaper, and turn it by 4 p.m. Monday. It's the quick-and-the-dead version of Kick the Kansan. Exciting, huh?
In the meantime, I will be compressing a week's worth of research needed for my column
But enough about next week. Let's talk about today's lovely panelists. This week, the ladies had another strong showing. I had the privilege of speaking with two young women, who proved once again that girls know just as much or more about football as me. Boy, are my buddies proud.
Lindsey Roberts, Leavenworth junior, is a hardcore sports fan. Last weekend, she was cited by Lawrence's finest for enjoying a couple drinks while watching Colorado play Iowa State
"I wasn't so mad about getting the MIP," Roberts said. "I just wanted to get back and watch the game."
Thatta girl. Down with the man.
I don't think Jaclyn Binder, Charleston, Ill., senior, has had any recent scrapes with the law, but she does have connections to Kansan sportswriter John Domoney. It seems it wasn't enough for Domoney and his girlfriend, Courtney Olson, Wichita junior, to beat me. Now they have recruited Olson's friend, Binder, and she is all business.
"I'm ready for Onio State to lose," Binder said. "I don't think they should be ranked as high as they are."
Ah well, back to the grindstone.
This week the Kansan invites its readers to take on Big 12 football reporter Doyle Murphy to pick the winners of 11 college football games. Anyone who defeats Murphy will be put in a drawing in which five participants will be chosen for weekly prizes including a T-shirt and gift certificate. The winners will also be included in the next week's picks in the Kansan. All entries will be included in the grand prize drawing at the end of the season. Because of Thanksgiving break, next week's *Kick the Kansan* will appear in Tuesday's Kansan. Please have all entry forms turned in to the Kansan business office by 4 p.m. Monday.

Jeannette Blackmar hustles past the crowded shelves of boxed artifacts to her office in Spooner Hall. She needs her white gloves before she
can handle any of the artifacts. The pieces are so old that even the oil from her hands could damage them.
She picks one up and shows it off.

The piece is one of several from the donated Morley Collection. The figure held a great deal of importance in pre-Columbian societies because tobacco was important in day-to-day life as well as in rituals.
Blackmar places it back in the cabinet, shuts the metal door and locks it.
Once the Day of the Dead exhibit ends Dec. 9, the University of Kansas Museum of Anthropology in Spooner Hall will conclude its exhibitions indefinitely; and artifacts like Blackmar's favorite statue will not be on display.

Students discuss observe Kwanzaa
By George Schulz
Kansan staff writer
gschulz@ansai.com
I will do it myself.
Every year during the holiday season. residents of Cornelius Minor's Atlanta neighborhood would gather to celebrate Kwanzaa. One of the neighborhood families would open their home to the rest of the community for food and festivities related to the holiday rooted in African culture.
"It was great to see people who were willing to open their homes to you," Minor said.
Lindsev Gold/Kansan
But when Minor, a graduate student, moved to Lawrence, he missed the holiday he had come to cherish. So Minor and others decided to organize a Kwanzaa celebration in Lawrence.
"It's a chance to see something familiar," Minor said. "I'm pretty busy with school and everything, but it was something I wanted to do."
A group of about 15 people joined Minor last Friday evening at Ecumenical Christian Ministries, 1204 Oread, for a ceremony and food as part of Kwanzaa. Participants discussed what Kwanzaa meant to them and how the holiday was a part of a larger movement to improve the lives of African Americans.
Kwanzaa is an opportunity to relearn principles we stand upon and reaffirm
Tyi-Sanna Jones, Pittsburgh graduate student, said Kwanzaa was not so much religiously based as it was a chance for people to gather together and appreciate one another.

Developed by Dr. Maulana Karenga, Kwanzaa was first celebrated in 1966 from Dec. 26 through Jan. 1 with each day focused on Nguzo Saba, or the seven principles. The term describing the seven principles was derived from the Swahili phrase "matunda ya kwanza," which means "first fruits" - a term related to harvest festivals celebrated in some African cultures.
The seven principles include unity, self-determination, collective work and

Different reasons to become a vegan
By Lindsay Hanson
lhanson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Vegans say they perform better in bed than those who eat meat and dairy products.
"Basically, your arteries don't get clogged up." Julia Franklin, Topeka junior and two-year vegan, said with a chuckle. "Think of all the little blood vessels."
For many vegans, such as Franklin and her sister, Emily, Topeka senior, veganism is more than a commitment to a diet. The Franklin sisters said they converted to veganism to boycott animal cruelty. They watch for labels notorious
for animal testing.
"It's a lifestyle in which, for me, youtry to reduce the suffering." Julia Franklin said.
Veganism is abstaining from anything that exploits animals. In addition to avoiding meats and dairy products, Julia Franklin said she had to watch for household shampoos, lotions and carpet cleaners she couldn't identify as cruelty-free products, which are often labeled.
But the transition to strict veganism after dabbling in vegetarian practices for about a month wasn't as hard as Julia Franklin had imagined, she said. She

Past presidents become today's leaders
Kevin Yoder, 26, is a state representative for the 20th district of Kansas, which includes Overland Park and Leawood. Yoder was elected to his first term in office on Nov. 5. He graduated from the University of Kansas in 1999 and finished law school at the University in 2002.

cnothwehr@kansan.com
Kansan staffwriter
When Kevin Yoder came to the University of Kansas as a freshman, he had no intentions of becoming student body president or later a legislator in the Kansas House of Representatives.
But, Yoder, who was elected to represent Kansas's 20th district on Nov. 5, is one of many former KU student body presidents who went on to pursue careers in leadership positions. Yoder said the position helped prepare him for a career in leadership.
"When I came to KU, I was just trying to figure out what I'd be when I grew up," Yoder said.
As student body president from 1998-1999, Yoder, 26, said he had to manage a
multi-million dollar budget and represent students' opinions to campus and state officials.
"Those experiences were the best training I ever received to be a leader," he said.
"You would think that college campaigns would be more juvenile, but the same games are played in races for the state legislature," he said.
The campaigning to become student body president also provided Yoder with valuable lessons, including how to deal with personal attacks.
Yoder said he had between 400 and 500 yard signs stolen throughout the course of his campaign for state representative. He said the Delta Force coalition he was running against in 1998 provided similar challenges.
David Adkins, KU student body president from 1981-1982, is in his first term
"Being student body president is something people can connect with," Adkins said. "There's a Jayhawk factor in Johnson County politics."
Adkins said he used his term as student body president as a helpful campaign point to relate to voters in his constituency.
as a Kansas senator from the 7th District, which covers much of Johnson County. Adkins said his term as student body president helped prepare him for public service on a statewide level. Candidates face voter apathy in both cases.
Ambler said Yoder's work toward creating a new recreation center on the KU
David Ambler, former vice chancellor for student affairs, worked with KU student body presidents for 25 years and said the position lent itself to leadership careers.
campus was a good example of how a student body president can produce real results.
"Unlike high school, the ability to impact the course of the institution is more real at a university," he said.
Ambler cited other KU student body presidents who have gone on to notable careers, including David Dillon, student body president during the 1972-1973 school year, who became chief operating officer of Kroger Co.; Kyle Craig, student body president during the 1967-1968 school year, who created Einstein Bros. Bagels; and Petra Tasheff, president during the 1976-1977 school year, who became consul for Citicorp in New York City.

Icy roads cause
wrecks in Wyoming
CHEYENNE, Wyo. — ley conditions caused dozens of accidents on the highways in the Rocky Mountain foothills yesterday, injuring at least five people and causing authorities to temporarily close a 90-mile stretch of Interstate 80.
At least 110 accidents, including some rollovers, were reported from midnight Saturday to Sunday morning, the Wyoming Highway Patrol said. A 9-year-old girl was killed in an accident in western Nebraska.
One crash in Wyoming involved 12 semi-trucks and six cars. The ice was left behind by the remnants of a major storm that dumped at least a foot of snow in the central and western mountains overnight.
Four people had to be extricated from their vehicles, said Wyoming Highway Patrol Sgt. Stephen Townsend.
Authorifies closed the eastbound lanes from Sinclair to Laramie by late morning, and reopened them in the afternoon. Traffic had to be escorted to Laramie on U.S. 30 In groups of 100 vehicles, Townsend said.
Relief astronauts head to space station
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — Space shuttle Endeavour chased after the international space station yesterday, bringing a relief crew for its three long time inhabitants.
"We're on our way," said the shuttle's skipper, James Wetherbeer.
The 250-mile-high link up will occur this afternoon.
American astronaut Peggy Whitson and Russian cosmonauts Valery Korzun and Sergei Treschev have been aboard the space station for almost six months. Their mission was supposed to last 41/2 months, but all of the space shuttles were grounded after they moved in because of cracked plumbing.
Endeavour will spend a full week at the space station and return to Earth, with Whitson and her two station crewmates, on Dec. 4.
Graceland to support impersonators again
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Elvis impersonators can continue swiveling their hips and quivering their lips, after Graceland reversed its earlier decision to sever its support of festivals featuring clones of the King.
Elvis Presley Enterprises, the business arm of the multi-million-dollar Presley estate, decided in October to no longer associate with festivals using Elvis impersonators.
But the estate gave back its backing after receiving about 30 letters from festival organizers and fans who were all shook up.
Soden said the idea for the policy change came from some festivals "becoming more about Elvis impersonators than Elvis."
But most impersonators would disagree.
"Everything I'm doing is just to pay tribute to him," said David Lee, a major contender on the festival circuit. "Graceland disliking tribute artists is something I've never understood."
Historic building damaged in Omaha
OMAHA, Neb. — One of four historic buildings slated for preservation near the site of a new performing arts center was severely damaged yesterday when a neighboring food plant was imploded.
Debris from the razing of the Pinnacle food plant smashed through the roof and caused the west wall to cave in at the Frankie Pane building in downtown Omaha.
"I'm sick, my stomach hurts, I'm shaking, I'm sick, I’m sick," said Frankie Pane, who uses the building as a private party and catering facility.
Officials with Dore & Associates Contracting, the contractor for the $90 million arts center project, had no comment.
Omaha City Attorney Paul Kratz said insurance companies and the city would investigate the implosion. It will take time before it's learned what went wrong, he said.

Study released on the status of women in Kansas by KU
Women in Kansas are more likely to have four-year college degrees than women in other states,but single women with children are more likely to live in poverty in Kansas than in other states, according to a study released Thursday by the KU Institute for Women's Policy Research.
The study, dubbed "The Status of Women in Kansas," also said women in Kansas were less likely than women in the rest of the country to work in management roles and professional jobs.

KUROTC cadets train for situations in enemy territory
By Caleb Nothwehr
cnothewhr@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Dressed in battle fatigues, 19 Air Force ROTC cadets rotated small mirrors, reflecting the sun's rays skyward. Minutes later, two A-10 attack jets swooped to altitudes of about 500 feet and then circled the cadets.
The jets were guided to the area by the cadets as part of a survival-training exercise Friday and Saturday at Coyote's Head pastures near Clinton Lake.
Administrators of the training said these exercises gave the students a hands-on experience. This was the first year that ROTC cadets at KU participated in such an exercise.
The exercise trained cadets how to survive if their planes ever crashed in enemy territory.
"This can give them a better experience than showing a video or reading out of a textbook," said Col. Michael Lee, commander of the KU Air Force ROTC.
Airmen from Whiteman Air Force Base in Knob Knoster, Mo., helped administer the training. Using their own experience, members of the Survival Evasion Resistance Escape (SERE) force at Whiteman imparted training and tactics to ROTC cadets.
"These are skills that they can pass on to their family." Master Sgt. Cecil Del Rosario said. "It's common sense stuff."
"Having never eaten corned beef hash before, I'd say it's pretty good," said Cadet Rodney Wall, Jacksonville, Fla., freshman while shoveling forkills of MRE during the lunch break Friday.
Throughout the weekend, participating cadets learned basic survival skills, including how to make a fire, how to navigate using the sun or stars, and how to survive off of Meals Ready to Eat, the military's standard issue meal-in-a-bag.
Cadets also learned to navigate rescue teams by communicating to the A-10 pilots via radio.
Officials at Whiteman provided most of the personnel and
supplies for the training, including the MREs and the A-10s.
On Saturday, the cadets put their training into practice through a survival challenge, a four-leg navigation exercise. During one leg, cadets had to evade SERE officials who acted as the enemy.
Johannesburg, South Africa
Cadet Keith Knoesel, St. Louis senior, said the evasion training was educational and suspenseful.

Air Force ROTC cadets use mirrors to signal ally aircraft during a training session Friday afternoon just north of Clinton Lake. Two A-10 Thunderbolt planes flew in from Whiteman Air Force base in Knob Knoster, Mo., to assist the 19 cadets who volunteered to learn rescue maneuvers and survival techniques.
"They simulated the psychological operations of the enemy," Knoesel said. "They would yell out in the woods. That really got your adrenaline going."
"They'll have to think on the spot and act as leaders," he said.
Del Rosario, who administered most of the exercises, recently returned to the U.S. after training troops in Afghanistan for the same type of situations. Del Rosario said he was teaching the cadets the basic principles of survival
Cadets who participated in the training said they were hoping to gain experience for similar situations they might encounter in the future.
"I'm shooting for a pilot slot, so I'll probably end up using this training." Wall said.
Cadet Jenny Hartman, Lansing
freshman, said she had never been camping before and was looking forward to the training.
"I wanted to learn survival
skills in case I go to flight school," Hartman said.

Group withholds collected food from Salvation Army
By George Schulz
Kansan staff writer
geschulz.com
The Salvation Army has been rejected as the beneficiary of donated goods collected during a food drive sponsored by a student group of social workers on campus.
Citing the Salvation Army's position on same-sex orientation, The Bachelor of Social Welfare Student Organization, which began the drive Oct. 21, decided all food collected after the initial two weeks of the drive would go only to the Ballard Community Center, 708 Elm St.
The group met Nov. 8, two weeks into the drive, to make the decision.
"I feel like we have learned our lesson and know now we have to do our research before we assist agencies," Tara Corruth, Cottonwood Falls senior, said.
The group raised about $500 and collected approximately 1,000 non-perishable items during the drive, said Laura Henry, president of the social welfare student group and Fort Scott senior. The group donated 100 items to the Salvation Army, a number the students estimated to be half of the first two weeks' collection. The remaining 900 items went to
the Ballard Community Center.
Paula Gilchrist, director of social services for the Salvation Army, said the organization did not discriminate against anyone with same-sex orientation for employment or social services.
But a memo sent to the social welfare group contained the portion of the Salvation Army's position on homosexuality that the student group was opposed to.
"Scripture forbids sexual intimacy between members of the same sex," states the memo. "The Salvation Army believes, therefore, that Christians whose sexual orientation is primarily or exclusively same sex are called upon to embrace celibacy as a way of life. There is no scriptural support for same-sex unions as equal to, or as an alternatives to, heterosexual marriage."
Rich Forney, director of the Salvation Army, said the organization's position on homosexuality was the standard held for church members and clergy. But, he said, social services, including food distribution and emergency shelter, were given based on need
The memo also states that Bible scripture does not support "demeaning or mistreating anyone for reason of his or her sexual orientation."
"not race, creed, ethnic origin or sexual orientation."
"It is unfortunate that the student group has excluded the Salvation Army as a beneficiary to the food drive which could benefit many people," he said.
Nonetheless, the student group plans to stick with its decision.
Liz Snyder, Wichita senior said the group struggled with the decision and that she was more disappointed the group had not done its research before deciding what agencies would receive food donations.
Corruth said she wished the group wouldn't have had to take
the issue into consideration in the first place.
"I thinks it's sad that in Lawrence, which is supposed to be progressive, that it's a reality you have to think about these things," she said.
Henry said the ultimate decision was based largely on many of the ideas the students had learned in the University's social welfare program.
"It incorporated ethics we had learned as well as things we had learned from our teachers," she said.

PERSPECTIVES
Tuition increase dollars kept separate from other budgets
A paradox is "a seemingly contradictory statement that may nonetheless be true."
KU CHANCELLOR
That's how some people view the fact that KU is cutting its budget and reducing staff in some areas while increasing its budget and adding staff in others.
We recently announced that KU will use tuition enhancement money to increase the minimum wage for student hourly workers, hire three additional advisers in the Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center and provide $750,000 in tuition assistance to graduate research assistants.
MILTON ALVIN
BROADWAY AND THE
CITY OF MONCLER
Yet we all know that's a big assumption. I doubt everyone knows that the state reduced the Lawrence campus budget by $6.1 million this year, causing us to eliminate positions and lay off people in the process.
Robert Hemenway opinion@kansan.com
How do you explain this paradox?
It's important to remember that KU receives funding from many sources; chiefly state government, federal agencies, tuition and fees, room and board payments and private gifts.
It's like having several different pockets—each with its own wallet but you have to keep the money separate. You can't put it all in one wallet and buy anything you want. So room and board dollars pay for room and board. Dollars donated for scholarships are used for scholarships.
The state's $6.1 million budget reduction comes out of the wallet that contains state money. So the cuts
we've had to make were cuts that involved state appropriations.
This year's tuition enhancement money sits in an entirely separate wallet. Kansas tuition grants come from that wallet — so does $500,000 in classroom renovations. It's the source of funding for minority student recruitment and retention, as well as technology enhancements.
The spending of tuition enhancement money reflects a partnership between KU and its students, which works to make a better University. Student leaders have provided good advice on how to spend this money, and every student will benefit in some way.
Many students, for example, have already received Kansas tuition grants for 2002-03.
Keeping the wallets separate is important as the state goes through a very difficult fiscal crisis.
We might like to pull a few bills out of one pocket and slide them over to another, so that we could avoid some
painful choices. But doing so this year would break faith with our students. It would announce our willingness to replace budget cuts with the tuition enhancement dollars paid by students and their parents.
And more budget cuts are coming. I'm sorry to say.
Gov. Bill Graves made the announcement last week that the state budget for 2002-03 will be reduced by a certain amount in order to help avert a projected $310 million deficit at the end of June. This will be in addition to the $41 million in reductions he ordered in August. Ominously, Graves said, "Making the amount of reductions significant is much easier to do if you've got K-12 and higher education on the table."
A thinner state funding "walet" for KU will be unavoidable as the year goes on.
The true paradox is this: the state reduced its support for KU this year, while students increased their support through tuition.
I think the state can take a lesson from KU students.
Students understand the value of a strong investment in their future. Let's make sure others understand how a major investment in higher education ensures the economic future of Kansas.
Hemenway is Chancellor for the University of Kansas.

Elimination of pre-holiday tests would make many students thankful
Thanksgiving break provides a much-needed rest from midterm papers and tests. It can also be the first time students have been able to go home to see their families since the beginning of the semester.
For students who have to schedule flights home or have a long drive ahead of them, leaving early Tuesday morning is necessary. However, some faculty members will not provide an alternate test time for these students.
Jeannette Johnson, assistant to the provost, said professors could schedule a test the day before Thanksgiving break as long as it is noted on the syllabus handed out at the beginning of the

"Faculty members have the right to
make the arrangements they feel appropriate for the course they are teaching," Johnson said.
Johnson suggests students plan ahead and get their plane tickets for Thanksgiving as soon as possible.
Most faculty members are realists and will work with a student to reschedule a test if the student comes to them early in the semester with the problem, she said.
However, the week of Thanksgiving is one of the biggest traveling weeks in the year. The U.S. Department of Transportation expects 36 million people to travel by plane this Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving becomes a problem when faculty members schedule tests on the day before the break and announce that the test will be required to pass the course.
even scheduling early may not allow a student to work around a test schedule, not to mention the fact that in the busy lives of procrastinating students, scheduling a plane trip three months away is not very probable.
Faculty members should be realistic and allow students who have to leave early for break to take a required test at an alternate time.
Better yet, faculty members should realize that Thanksgiving is a time when

But at a time when students leave to celebrate a holiday that is meant for family and friends, faculty members should be responsible to see that students have alternate times to complete course requirements.

Fans live out football fantasy
By Kelly McNearney
kmcnearney@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
In the National Football League, only 32 people own a football team. In fantasy football, however, anyone can live the dream.
Fantasy football, the online fan-based football league, gives NFL fans the opportunity to own and manage their own fantasy team made of real professional football players.
For the die-hard sports fans, the Internet is a haven for anyone with the time to take up a fantasy sport. A Yahoo search for fantasy football brought up more than 1.3 million Web sites.

Ohio, senior. "It's like you're a general manager making moves and trades to make your team better."
Peterson is a member of a league through Yahoo Fantasy Football. His league has 12 teams competing against one another.
"I'm in first place right now, but we were undefeated a couple weeks ago and then we lost two in a row." Peterson said. "Now we're struggling."
Peterson said he lucked out with his pick of quarterback Drew Bledsoe of the Buffalo Bills. Bledsoe has 18 touchdowns and over 3,000 yards in his 10 games this season. He is Peterson's best player.

responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity and faith. These principles are described as the building blocks for community.
According to the Kwanzaa Information Center's Web site, http://www.melanet.com/kwanzaa/, Kwanzaa was initially designed to help address quality of life concerns African Americans had over the commercialization of Christmas.
"A review of the major holidays celebrated in the United
States would reveal that not one relates specifically to the growth and development of African Americans," the Web site states.
Minor said, to him, Kwanzaa had always meant hospitality toward others.
Kiya Hillbeard, Kansas City, Mo., freshman, said students should learn about and understand other cultural celebrations during the holiday season.
"If we don't step out of our comfort zone; we'll never truly get to know one another," she said.

Scholars doubt artifact's supposed link to Jesus
The Associated Press
TORONTO — The French scholar who discovered the purported burial box of Jesus' brother, James, strongly defended the artifact's identification Sunday against skeptical religious scholars.
The panel discussion, attended by 800 people, involved mainly crucial technical points such as the forms of handwriting on the inscription, which reads "James, son of Joseph, brother of Jesus."
The words appear on a 1st century bone box known as an "ossuary," a form of Jewish burial that ended in 70 A.D. The New Testament identifies James as
Jesus' brother and the leader of Jerusalem's early Christians.
If experts decide the inscription refers to Jesus of Nazareth rather than some other Jesus, and is not a forgery, the box would rank as a monumental archaeological discovery.
Since Andrew Lemaire reported the box's existence last month in Biblical Archaeology Review, some have suggested the Jesus phrase could have been added by a forger, more likely in ancient than in modern times.
Some scientific questions about the box, on display at the Royal Ontario Museum through Dec. 29, may be clarified when the Israel Antiquities Authority conducts further examination.

joined a local activist group Animal Outreach of Kansas which is where she found support because its members shared her ideals.
Julia Franklin said she never had a problem satisfying her hunger while abstaining from meat and dairy products. "Analogue" products — such as chickenless nuggets and soy ice cream — often cost more than their traditional counterparts but can provide comfort with their familiar taste when she went vegan. The many restrictions haven't stopped her from eating at restaurants.
"It's just like having a food allergy," she said, adding that she always asked waiters how the food had been prepared.
Cutting the meat and dairy has cut the fat from Julia Franklin's diet. Before making the switch to veganism, she said she carried a little extra weight. Since then, she has lost 40 pounds almost unconsciously, she said.
Ann Chapman, coordinator of nutrition services at Watkins Memorial Health Center and registered dietitian, said she had coached students trying to keep a balanced vegan diet. Educating oneself is key to succeeding and staying healthy, she said.
"I feel a lot better and don't get sick as often now," she said.
"I don't feel asicky, I guess."
about it to know what's going to be lacking in your diet," she said. "It can be an adequate diet if you know what you're doing."
She said vegans should take special care to include essential vitamins and minerals, such as B12, iron and riboflavin, all of which could easily be overlooked.
One student converted to a vegan diet with different goals in mind. Nick Ray, Burlington sophomore, converted this July not to stop animal cruelty but to improve his health.
"Iget a lot of bad stigma with it because a lot of vegans are doing it for animal rights," he said. "I still wear leather shoes."
"You have to have read
Around mid-September, Ray said he cheated once and ate a slice of American cheese. He said the cheese made him sick.
Ray, who shops for salad ingredients for Stephenson Scholarship Hall, said the biggest challenge was eating in a group living situation.
"It is pretty hard because you have to cook all your own meals and sometimes it's definitely a struggle," he said.
After five months of veganism, Ray said he planned to continue the diet indefinitely. But the longer he goes as a vegan, he said, the more he will have to keep himself from slipping into an unhealthy diet.
"Eventually people get careless and are malnourished," he said.

Research, Inc. The review also placed the museum in high need of subsidies to help it continue its current operations. By cutting the public programming from the museum,$132,000 will be saved each year.
In June, the University elected to cut the public programming and some of its payroll money out of the museum's budget, which will leave a $106,000 budget for the museum. This cut came as a result of the University budget cut, and a need to make strategic cuts to save other University research institutions.
During the 2000-2001 school year, the Center for Research, which oversees the museum's money, conducted a review of the museum. It recommended that the University invest more funds in the museum to refocus the museum's objectives to make it more productive.
"In no way do we want to indicate that this was a snap decision, that this was easy," said Lynn Bretz, director of University
"In the best of all worlds, we would have loved to keep the museum as it was and beefed things up so it could do an even better job. But that's not the fiscal reality we face and we've had to make some difficult decisions."

Relations. "In the best of all worlds, we would have loved to keep the museum as it was and beefed things up so it could do an even better job. But that's not the fiscal reality we face and we've had to make some difficult decisions."
Mary Adair, interim director of the museum, said the report unfairly criticized the museum. She said it was not fully funded. Since taking over as interim director almost two years ago,
Adair said she had managed with a six-person staff, two of which were full-time. The museum had operated on a budget of $238,000. It managed to produce six exhibits each year and get enough grant money to cover the salaries of all of the employees. Adair said. The department periodically takes some of these exhibits across Kansas and has taught hundreds of children about cultural diversity.
"How do you say that's not productive?" Adair asked.
Three years ago the University invested $330,000 to restore Spooner Hall's stone exterior. Built in 1894. Spooner is the oldest building on campus and was the University's first library.
Over the last two fiscal years, KU has been hit with a $9.4 million shortfall, 4 percent of its operating budget. To cope with the cuts, Chancellor Robert Memenway has emphasized that "cuts will not be across the board." Rather, the University will implement strategic cuts throughout. The chancellor said this will help preserve and strengthen what the University does best, and allow the weaker programs to refocus their missions.
Six people will have lost their jobs at the museum by the end of June 2003. The staff will be reduced to one full-time faculty member, Adair, and one parttime faculty member, Jeannette Blackmar, associate curator for the museum. They will work to restructure and care for a museum that houses more than one million artifacts, which range from clay pots, thousands of years old, to recently discovered arrowhead shards.
The collection does not have an appraised dollar amount. Blackmar said this was because the museum studies field deter-

mined the value of an object based on what it could tell them about the culture it came from and its rarity.
This funeral mask dates back to the early 20th century. It came from the Kuba tribe, located in Zaire.
Within the collection are pieces of Maria Martinez pottery, known for its signature blackware glaze. There are chief's thrones and other artifacts from the Chokwe, an African tribe. Its pieces are so rare that a Birmingham, Ala., museum putting together an exhibit on the Chokwe last year had to borrow pieces from Belgium, because it had no idea that a museum at the University of Kansas would have such rare items, said Kim Taylor, the museum's exhibition designer.
The collections of artifacts will still be available for anthropology classes. Anyone can look at a specific piece or collection by appointment. But with a smaller staff, not all requests will be met by a person's deadline.

But the big change will be the elimination of public exhibits.
"We are still a museum in the sense that we still have collections and we still care for collections," Adair said. "But in terms of the norm of having exhibits, and those are going to be erratic and by somebody else, it's going to be hard for us to say that there is a museum of anthropology."
Taylor's position as the museum's exhibition designer will be eliminated. Also eliminated was her dual role as the ethnographic collection manager, which she said the administration never recognized.
"That position never existed," she said. "And without public programming and exhibits, this is nothing more than a repository of objects."
Last spring, the museum
Jeanette Blackmar, associate curator, cares for the anthropological collections. "I think there's a value in appreciating that human beings are amazingly adaptive and creative in survival."

bought thousands of dollars of shelving to create storage for Native-American blankets that date back as far as 1820. Taylor has wrapped them in storage paper and put many of them on the shelves. She just recently discovered a group of Navajo rugs in another area of the museum without any paperwork on where they came from. She said getting them stored was just one more item on a growing list of things to do before her job ends.

Cook,compete,consume Students partake in dumpling contest
ByJenna Goepfert
jgoepfert@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
With secret weapon in tow, Yih Sing Loh came to the Community Building, 115 W. 11th St., to win.
The Gemencheh, Malaysia, senior gathered with the Taiwanese Student Association Saturday afternoon for a festival featuring a rice dumpling cooking competition. The rice dumplings is a traditional Chinese food for celebrations.
"We usually eat these at the end of the year in wintertime," Loh said as he sized up the competition.
He brought along his secret weapon, a mixing bowl with food coloring and a mold to shape the dumplings, but he said he had "no idea" how to make them.
No matter, said he and his
teammate, Wei-Ming Chang, Taiwan senier. Chang's mother and third teammate, Tjantik, would help guide them.
The seven teams, each with three members, lined up in the basement of the building as the association's treasurer, Yvonne Yu, went over the directions in Mandarin.
The teams competed first for quantity, then for height as groups stacked the tallest dumpling tower, and finally for style.
The dumplings are made from a rice powder and shaped into nickel-sized spheres. Water and powder are added to create the right consistency. Grandmothers usually passed the technique down to younger generations, but times have changed, Loh said.
"Nowadays, they just go to the convenience store and buy the package." Loh said.
Experience ruled the first round of competition, as three "grandmas" won with 74 completed dumplings. Loh and the Changs placed fifth.
By the time the style competition came around, Loh, Chang and Tiantik were ready to win.
The teams were given red and white dough. Red is the color of happiness, said Yang Chuan Chang, Lawrence resident, who used to make rice dumplings with his mother.
张立华
Competitors stepped back and clapped their hands, sending puffs of rice powder into the air.
The team learned it would have to do without its secret weapon bowl, as the rules stated that no outside utensils could be brought in. After a few minutes, they finished their creation — "Heroes Save the Princess."
The team took second place.

"The old ones have experience and the young guys have creativity," said Yang Chuan Chang of the winners. "It makes sense."

Diverse couples blur the line between religion and love
—Edited by Ryan Malashock

apassman@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas has more than 25,000 people on campus, all coming from different religious and ethnic backgrounds.
With such a wide-variety of people and beliefs, it's not surprising that many students with different beliefs find themselves in relationships together.
Beth Blizzard, Overland Park senior, and Jeff McClure, Wichita junior, met at a party in June 2001 and have been dating
for nearly a year and a half. Blizzard is agnostic and McClure has been Buddhist for the past seven years. Despite this difference in beliefs, the two said they were deeply committed to one another.
Blizzard and McClure's interfaith relationship appears to be indicative of a blurring of the lines between religion and love.
The American Religious Identity Survey (ARIS) was conducted in 2001 by sociologists at the Graduate School of the City University of New York as a follow-up to a 1990 survey.
ARIS 2001 used a sample of
50,000 Americans to determine various religion statistics across the country.
According to the survey, ARIS 2001 found that among all households with either a married or domestic partner couple, 22 percent reported a mixture of religious identification among the couple.
ARIS went on to conclude that about 28 million American couples, married or otherwise, live in mixed-religion households.
McClure said he had several Buddhist friends and after spending time with them, he became
attracted to Buddhism. He said being Buddhist means thinking of the world differently than you would otherwise and learning to rely on yourself.
"With Buddhism you are the higher power, as opposed to depending on another higher power," said McClure. "It's about disciplining your mind to achieve whatever you want to achieve in life."
Blizzard said, despite her agnosticism, there were advantages to dating someone so committed to his faith.
"Being in a relationship with a Buddhist has opened my eyes a
lot." Blizzard said. "I've learned a lot from Jeff about Buddhism and East Asian societies. But at the same time, I definitely don't agree with some of the ideas of Buddhism, like reincarnation and the Buddhist view of women."
McClure said Buddhism helped him stay calm during stressful times and he used daily meditation to relax himself.
"Taking spiritual time out of your day is hard to fit in, but you have to try to find time," McClure said.

Do the math: scholarship rules unfair
Sometimes, I'm convinced that a drunk chimp on roller skates could run the NCAA better than the officials in charge now.
'Hawks advance to NYC
What's there to like about the NCAA? It's the most messed up association in America, and it has done its absolute best to make sure that men are screwed over in college athletics today.
Well, except for football players, of course.
At the University of Kansas, the five men's sports (with cross country and track and field counting as one) by NCAA rules are given a total of 126.9 scholarships. Baseball gets 11.7. Golf gets 4.5, not enough to fully assist a starting lineup.
Meanwhile, football gets 85 scholarships. Eighty-freak-in-five.
You have got to be kidding.
No wonder men's tennis is a memory. No wonder Robinson Natatorium has the men's swimming and diving record board looking more like a tombstone that reads "1925-2001."

Men's tennis and swimming and diving were murdered in 2001 because the athletics program didn't have enough money. Why? Because football isn't good, and the KU fans flee when a team doesn't win. But the University of Kansas Athletic Corporation still forked over the money for 85 tuitions, 85 rooms and

The University of North Carolina-Greensboro's men's basketball team faced a near-perfect opponent Friday night: the No. 2 ranked Kansas Jayhawks.
A national audience witnessed the Jayhawks 105-66 victory, which included a second-half team that held the Spartans scoreless for nearly five minutes until they ended a 20-0 run with 6:50 left in the game. But by this time the score was 94-52 and the Jayhawks were on cruise control.
"Midway through the second half, our defense got going and our break got going, and then it was just a lot of fun," coach Roy Williams said.
Sophomore guard Keith Langford slammed twice during this time span, with his dunk from a Nick Collison pass earning thunderous applause.
"He was sensational and got us off to a great start," Williams said of Langford. "Keith got in the rhythm and took some shots he should have. The second half he did a better job of taking it to the basket."
Langford, who missed just one shot en route to a career-high 24 points, attributed his early impressive play to a newfound attitude.
"Freshman year I was so indecisive, and this year I have to put up or shut up," he said. "I'm starting. I have to do something or somebody else is going to be getting my minutes."
Langford and the rest of the starters used this game to prove why they are considered the best starting group in the country. Four of them combined for all of Kansas' points in the first half. When the final buzzer rang, the starters combined for all but 13 points in the game.
Collison's 25 points propelled him past Wilt Chamberlain on Kansall's axis.
"Freshman year I was so indecisive, and this year I have to put up or shut up."

time scoring list and into 16th place. Sophomore forward Wayne Simien added a career-high 18 points and 10 rebounds, and senior guard Kirk Hinrich had a complete game with 23 points, seven rebounds, five assists and four steals, sophomore point guard Aaron Miles was 0-4 from the field but finished with eight assists and two free throws.
As impressive as the starters were, Williams said he needed the reserves to help offensively.
"I'd like for those guys other than those top five to take care of the basketball a little better and make shots," he said, "but again, we're getting them minutes so hopefully it will help us."
Kansas applied relentless pressure on the perimeter throughout most of the game and its reserves kept the defense alive while the starters rested. Sophomore guard Michael Lee provided a spark off the bench in the first half when he dove for a loose ball in front of the Jayhawk bench, creating a Spartan turnover. Second-year freshman guard Jeff Hawkins also showed his quickness and defensive pressure by causing a five-second violation.
Williams said the guards could have denied the ball better, even though Kansas tallied 16 steals to UNC-Greensboro's five.
The Jayhawks will play North Carolina at Madison Square Garden Wednesday evening in the semifinals of the Preseason NIT.

Senior earns bid to run in NCAA race

Kansan sportswriter
Kansas senior Mark Meneefe will be running today at the NCAA cross country championships in Terre Haute, Ind.
Menefee
Menefee's eighthplace finish in the 10k at the Midwest regional championships Nov. 16 with a time of 30;16.31 earned him an at-large bid to the NCAA championships. This will be Menefee's final cross country race in a Kansas uniform.
"I am really, really excited and happy," Menefee said. "I didn't think I was going to make it and now I am really glad I have a chance and to compete."
Charlie Gruber, who is now a volunteer assistant coach for the Jayhawks, was the last Kansas runner to individually qualify for the NCAA Championships in 2000.
Meneefee has paced the Kansas men's team all year long, finishing as the first or second Kansas runner in each race. Meneefee will be the only runner from the University competing in the championships.
The top four runners from non-qualifying teams get a regional bid for the championships. Menefee was one of four runners who received a national at-large qualification.
"He definitely worked hard to earn the opportunity to compete at the Championships," coach Stanley Redwine said. "Hopefully he will have a great chance to become an All-American."
The coaching staff is proud of Menee's accomplishments at Kansas.

The Kansas players didn't empty the water cooler over coach Marian Washington's head yesterday, but that was all that was missing from the Jayhawks' victory celebration.
They leapt into the air, hugged one another and skipped to the locker room after they scraped by the University of Texas-El Paso 63-60 with a key defensive stop in the final seconds.
The jayhawks (1-0) darted to an early 21-9 lead, but the game was far from finished. Driven by a zone defense and the play of junior guards Vaida Zagurskyte and Kia Dowell, the Miners (1-1) mounted a frenzied comeback in the second half. Dowell made 6 of 10 three pointers in the game, including back-to-back threes late in the second half. Her first tied the game, and the second gave UTEP a 58-55 lead with 2:33 left to play.
Down by three points with four seconds remaining. Dowell got the ball behind the three-point line. As she prepared to knock down yet another long shot, Kansas junior guard Leila Menguc shot her arm in the air. The ball deflected off her fingertips into the waiting hands of Zagurskyte.
Only when the ball had sailed over the rim and the buzzer sounded could Kansas feel safe.
The manner in which the Jayhawks won was an encouraging sign to Washington.
"It's really important," she told reporters after the game. "Because I guarantee you we're going to have to fight for every win we get this year."
Freshman Crystal Kemp could be Washington's top warrior in that battle. After solid performances in Kansas' two exhibition victories, the freshmen center/forward proved she was just warming up.
Kemp led all scorers with 21 points, and pulled down 10 rebounds.

The Kansas volleyball squad stayed with a ranked opponent, but fell short because one of the home crowd's most hated players had a career night.
No. 22 Missouri senior middle blocker Christi Myers was heckled by the crowd all night but still had a careerhigh 26 kills, registered a .449 hitting percentage in 49 kill attempts, and had only four errors. She did this while staring down the crowd and the officials.
"She's obviously their go-to player. We thought if we managed the left side we'd be all right, and we did that," Kansas coach Ray Bechard said. "Myers had a great career. She's a quality middle, one of the best in the Big 12."
Kansas lost in five games at home for the second straight match. Just like in its loss to Texas A&M on Nov. 13, Kansas
led 8-6 in the final game before the teams switched sides of the court. The Jay hawks lost both fifth games 15-12.
"It was frustrating that we were that close to being able to do it," freshman setter Andi Rozum said. "I don't know, for some reason we let up. I don't think there's one thing we can point at why we lost the final game."
Kansas outside hitters Sarah Rome and Lindsey Morris led the team with 14 kills each. Rome, a junior, led the team with 19 digs for her 10th double-double. Freshman middle blocker Josiane Lima's 12 kills and 10 digs also gives her 10 double-doubles this season.
In the next game with the score tied at 18, the Tigers made a 5-0 run to take a 23-
In game one, Kansas made an 8-1 start. It extended its lead to 20-9 by scoring nine of 12 points before a Missouri time-out. Kansas would not look back, winning the game 30-22. Missouri had 11 hitting errors and a .073 hitting percentage.
In game three, trailing 21-19, the Jayhawks scored the next five points, taking the lead to 24-21, which was the biggest lead either had in game three. With the game tied at 29, Missouri blocked Rome's kill attempts, winning game three 31-29.
In game four with a 14-12 lead, Kansas scored six of the next eight points, stretching the lead to 19-14. Kansas won the game 30-22.
18 lead. The two teams would split the next 14 points, and Missouri tied the match, winning game two 30-25.
In the final game, Kansas took an 8-6 lead after an ace by Rome. The teams switched sides and Missouri would tie the game an 8-8 after an ace by Missouri's Lindsey Noll.
With Kansas leading 11-10, Myers would get two kills in Missouri's 5-1 run. Rome hit a ball wide and to the right, giving Missouri game five 15-12.

Taurus (April 20-May 20), Today is a 5.
Tempted to do something fiscally foolish?
Here are a few clues to minimize the danger. Investing in home and family is the strategy most likely to reap rich dividends. Real estate works, too.

Don't sleep late if it'll cost you.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). Today is a 9.
You're almost ready to take off like a rocket. But if you do, will you leave something valuable behind? Don't give up anything you can't replace.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Today is a 6. You may not be ready to get back to work quite yet. There's an almost overwhelming urge to stay home with family and catch up on the latest news. Maybe you can if you do only the most important tasks.
Scorpion (Oct. 23-Nov. 21). Today is a 6.
There's liable to be an inspection today,
or an exam, or an audit. All they want are
the facts, and if you produce those,
they'll be happy and you'll gain in status.

You should be able to blast past just about any obstacles in your path. You've done the planning; right? Punch into overdrive! Warp speed!

think it over.
Piscos (Feb. 19-March 20). Today is a 5.

board, and 85 sets of books.
Not only did football's woes wipe out two sports, but they're eating away at all the men's scholarships. Do the math. Two out of every three scholarships given to a male athlete at Kansas goes to a football player.
Therefore, men's tennis and swimming and diving had to go.
As a result, the scholarship distribution in other sports is a terrible problem. Kansas baseball, to try to make things as fair as possible, won't give a full ride to an in-state baseball player. It's understandable, considering how tough out-of-state tuition is on a 20-year old.
That being said, outfielder Ryan Baty, the star player on the baseball team, a future professional and a Wichita native, gets a partial scholarship. Meanwhile, the 85th best player on the football team, someone who likely doesn't play and might not even dress on game days, gets everything paid for.
Eighty-five football scholarships pays for starters and backups on the offense, defense, the special teams and plenty of redshirts. Meanwhile, baseball plays with about 13 or 14 players a game, depending on pitching, pinch-hitters, and defensive replacements. They have redshirts too, but only 11.7 scholarships to work with.
Wrong. This is the NCAA we're talking about here. It's doubtful many of those in charge can read a book without pictures.
With no women's football team (though that would be awesome), we can assume that women's sports has no problem with distribution, right?
Women's basketball, with 15 full-rides to give out, has enough money for the five starters,the five backups, and five third-stringers that might as well be keeping stats.
Meanwhile, the soccer team, which could substitute just as frequently depending on the coach, is given 12 scholarships that can be split up and distributed. With 11 players on the field, it gives soccer coaches like Mark Francis a tough task when figuring out which of his players will get screwed over.
If it's fair, shouldn't soccer get 33 scholarships?
I'm kidding, but you get my point.
Everywhere you look, something's wrong. Women's basketball gets two more scholarships than men's basketball. Women's golf gets six scholarships, one and half more than the men's team. Women's track and field gets 18 scholarships, compared to 12.6 for the men.
All of this unfairness because of Title IX, which is around to make things fair. How ironic!

"She ran the floor really well tonight," Washington said of Kemp. "Thirty-eight minutes worth of tremendous performance."
Perhaps the most impressive aspect of Kemp's game was she prompted UTEP to change their defensive set in the second half. The Miners played man-to-man, defense the entire first half, but after Kemp dominated the UTEP players for 20 minutes, they switched to a zone to start the second half. The
strategy allowed the Miners to double team Kemp when she got the ball inside, and forced the rest of the lashvahks to shoot from the outside.
The scheme didn't faze Kemp. She replaced her low-post maneuvers with jump shots and running hook shots. There is still one aspect that she is planning to add to her game.
"I'm trying to, if I can, step out and shoot the three." she said. "Coach gave
me the clearance, but I don't know if I want to do it quite yet."

K-State settles for bowl game
COLUMBIA, Mo. — It's now a waiting game for the best Big 12 team that's not in the championship game.
Kansas State completed an impressive finishing stretch with a dominating 38-0 victory over Missouri on Saturday. The Wildcats beat their last five opponents by a combined score of 253-30, setting series bests for victory margin in three of the games.
But they're seven points shy of being in the league championship game Dec. 7. That's the slim margin of defeat in midseason losses to Colorado and Texas.
So, instead of one of the major bowls, Kansas State — which moved up two spots to No. 8 yesterday — likely will have to settle for the Cotton, Holiday or Alamo bowl.
"With the way we're playing right now, we're within seven points of being in the top two or three in the nation," junior tight end Thomas Hill said. "We can't do anything about that right now. We're just going to take this break we have right now."
Kansas State (10-2, 6-2 Big 12 Conference) stifled an up-and-coming Missouri team that had upset Texas A&M the previous week, beating the Tigers for the 10th straight time. The Wildcats rolled up 553 yards in total offense as Darren Sproles set two more school records with 1,347 yards rushing in a season and 1,656 all-purpose yards.
They were even more impressive on defense.
The Tigers (5-7, 2-6) were held to seven first downs and didn't cross midfield until the fourth quarter. Missouri never really had a chance of becoming bowl eligible for the first time in four years, which a 6-6 record would have accomplished.
The Associated Press
Kansas State entered the game No. 1 in the nation in scoring defense, No. 3 in rushing defense and No. 3 in total defense, and showed Missouri why in all three categories. It was the Tigers' first shutout in 34 games, dating to a 66-0 loss at Kansas State in the final game of the 1999 season.

CLUB SPORTS Ultimate frisbee team places first in national tournament
The University of Kansas' ultimate frisbee team won a national tournament yesterday in Wilmington, N.C.
The HorrorZontals went 5-3 in the two-day tournament, defeating Virginia, Iowa and Illinois before defeating the University of Pennsylvania 17-14 in the championship.
The Zontals, who sent 18 players on the trip, were ranked 13th out of the 16-team field and never lost a game by more than two points.
"It was a pleasant surprise to be invited," Zontals president Mike Jones, St. Louis senior, said. "We had to convince them that we deserved it when we submitted our bid."
Jones said the team saw many of the teams it faced this weekend in its last tournament in Fayetteville, Ark. He said knowing the opponents' strengths allowed the 'Zontals to work on their weaknesses.
"We were disappointed with some of those losses," he said. "In practices we were focused on the things that got us last time."
This weekend marked the first time the team went to the national tournament in Wilmington.

Hallman makes debut after missing preseason
By Ryan Greene
rgreene@kansan.com
kansan sportswriter
In the Kansas women's basketball media guide, freshman guard Erica Hallman lists Jason Kidd of the New Jersey Nets as her favorite basketball player.
In her first collegiate game. Hallman had a Kidd-like performance on a smaller scale, contributing in all areas with nine points, four rebounds and three assists.
After missing the team's two exhibition outings with an injured knee, Hallman had a convincing Jayhawk debut, highlighted by a return to the court after spraining her ankle late in the first half. In 21 minutes on the floor, Hallman made two clutch free throws with 14 seconds left in the game to put Kansas up by three.
Hallman's debut had been much anticipated after she was named Miss Kentucky Basketball in her senior year at Holmes High
School in Covington, Ky.
Hallman first entered the game as a a shooting guard, but ended up splitting some minutes with junior Leila Mengüç at point guard.
"I think for the fact that she's been out for a month, to get her on the floor for a few minutes, she really helps to give some depth in that point guard position," Kansas coach Marian Washington said. "Just the few minutes she was in there, I thought she really helped to make a difference particularly down the stretch."
Despite showing the physical ability and heart to be an effective player at the Division-I level, Hallman said she thought she could make improvements in her leadership skills.
"I'm kind of working on my vocal leadership," Hallman said. "I do a lot by example, but coach is really getting me to work on my vocal skills on the floor."

The men's basketball team celebrates along with the crowd after a Keith Langford dunk. Uproarious displays of enthusiasm, such as the one that followed Langford's dunk Friday night, are a rare occurrence for the Jayhawks on and off the court.
Just 'business' from seniors
By Kelly McNearney kmcnearney@kansan.com kansan staff writer
It started with the lineup call: fans screaming and newspapers flying, yet not so much as a smirk came from forward Nick Collison or guard Kirk Hinrich.
Even in the action-packed dunk fest that was the second half of Friday night's game against University of North Carolina-Greensboro, Collison and Hinrich showed little emotion. The stoic appearance of the Kansas men's basketball seniors continued throughout the game.
"I've heard before that I look bored out there when I'm playing, but I'm not," Hinrich said. "I
guess that's just my mentality."
Collison led Kansas in scoring with 25 points, and Hinrich added 23. But the two Iowa natives barely cracked a smile Friday, even as their team took a lead of more than 30 points.
In the second half, Collison stripped the ball, passed it to sophomore guard Aaron Miles and then took a feed under the rim for a dunk that had the crowd on its feet and screaming. Not so much as a fist pump came from Collison.
The most emotional displays came from Miles and fellow sophomore guard Keith Langford. Collison said those two players just had different personalities than he and Hinrich.
"Me and Kirk have been very businesslike," Collison said. "We've been brought up to just play the game, and those guys have been brought up differently. We all have fun, but they like to show it a little more."
Miles said Collison and Hinrich were typically quiet players but the difference was only in their character.
Second-year freshman guard Jeff Hawkins agreed.
Early in the first half, Lang-
"Kirk and Nick are just kind of humble," Hawkins said. "Kirk could hit maybe five threes in a row and just have the same face, but I know Keith is really big on celebration. Keith will celebrate off a free throw."
tord kept his shooting arm in the air halfway down the court after hitting a three-pointer and Miles laughed along with him. Langford also swung on the rim after a dunk in the second half.
Langford said playing emotionally was part of his game and he considered it positive for the team. He said coach Roy Willinms encouraged players to show pride on the court.
"You have guys that lead by example and then guys that can get other guys into it emotionally." Langford said. "Everybody knows when it comes down to it, Kirk and Nick are the leaders."

Sequels dominate box office
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Super-spy James Bond has outcharmed boy wizard Harry Potter.
Die Another Day, the 20th Bond flick, took in $47 million over opening weekend, the best debut ever for the franchise, according to studio estimates yesterday.
The Bond movie bumped last weekend's top film, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, to No. 2. In its second weekend, Chamber of Secrets grossed $42.4 million, pushing its 10-day total to $148.5 million.
Friday After Next, the third in Ice Cube's series of Friday urban comedies, opened in third place with $13.1 million. Kevin Kline's The Emperor's Club, about a prep-school teacher's relationship with a troublesome teen, debuted at No. 7 with $4.1 million.
Die Another Day beat the opening gross of the last Bond movie, The World Is Not Enough, the franchise's previous best debut at $35.5 million.
Pierce Brosnan has drawn favorable reviews for his fourth outing as agent 007. The addition of Halle Berry as Bond's formidable American ally and love interest, plus a cameo and theme song by Madonna, helped reinvigorate the 40-year-old franchise.
Women accounted for nearly half the movie's audience, according to distributor MGM. The movie's hip look and attitude played well with viewers younger than 25, who made up about a third of the audience, said Peter Adee, MGM head of marketing.
"There's a great deal of pressure on franchise pictures, especially when you have 19 movies
before you." Adee said. "You can't just have an aging audience. Young men and women are embracing the Bond franchise unbelievably well. That puts us in a great place to set up the next movie."
Chamber of Secrets had a slower second weekend than its predecessor, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. But the second weekend for Sorcerer's Stone came over Thanksgiving, when movie-going is brisker.
Harry Potter distributor Warner Bros. expects a strong holiday showing for Chamber of Secrets this Thanksgiving weekend, traditionally a prime time for family films.
"You just watch on Thanksgiving. I think Harry Potter is going to do very well, along with Santa Clause 2." said Paul Dergarabedian, president of box-office tracker Exhibitor Relations.

Rock Chalk Revue picks performers
Thirteen pairs pared down to five; groups to begin preparing shows
By Todd Rapp
trapp@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Anticipation filled the atmosphere in Liberty Hall last night as 13 pairs of living organizations waited to hear whether they had made it into the 54th annual Rock Chalk Revue.
Five pairs of participants were announced last night. The 13 initial groups were selected in September and had the next three months to prepare their bids for the final show in the spring. The directors from each show were on hand at Liberty Hall for the Rock Chalk Revue Executive Board's entrance announcement.
"The decision was stressful as hell," said Kyle Monson, director
for Sigma Nu's show "Ruckus in River Rust," which was selected to participate in the reue. "The process was nothing but enjoyable. I had a great team."
Monson said the show had helped him develop his leadership and people skills.
"That is what doing the show is really all about—learning to work with people," said Monson, Leawood senior.
The five pairs of living organizations that made it into the Rock Chalk Revue are:
Sigma Phi Epsilon and Kappa Delta
Lambda Chi Alpha and Alpha Gamma Delta
Sigma Nu and Kappa Kappa Gamma
Gamma
Pi Kappa Phi and Pi Beta Phi
- Pi Kappa Phi and Pi Beta Phi
- Beta Theta Pi and Delta
  Delta Delta
The groups were selected by a panel of 15 judges, chosen by the Rock Chalk Revue executive board.
The judges conducted oral interviews with the directors of each competing living organization over the weekend. The directors had the opportunity during these interviews to explain their show's meaning, display costumes and act out certain portions of the script and answer the judges' questions.
Despite the selection of only five pairs, the executive board thanked all the pairs for the hard work and creativity they showed in preparing for the show.
"This year the caliber of the shows has risen from years past — 13 groups haven't submitted notebooks in a long time," said Amy Lee, executive director for the Rock Chalk Revue. "As executive director, I would be very confident to see any one of the groups perform on stage at the Lied Center in March."

Studio 804 students make designs into reality
Story by Jenne Goepfert  Photos by Eric Bream
Seven years ago, Rockhill and a group of students put a roof on an abandoned schoolhouse. In the years that followed, they built an architect's studio and a canopy behind Marvin Hall.
Dan Rockhill, professor of architecture, said he wasn't in the business of training builders. But every spring for 12 hours a day, six days a week for 16 weeks, his students become construction workers.
By then, the seeds had been planted
"I had students coming to me saying, 'What are we going to do next?'" he said.
Rockhill went to city officials and emerged with a solution — he and his graduate students would design and build a house for a low income Lawrence family.
$ \textcircled{1} $ 'Built by idealists'
The project has evolved into a yearlong, two-course enterprise called Studio 804. Students have produced four award-winning houses in Lawrence, all using recycled materials and unconventional architectural techniques.

Early Hanukkah sparks post-Thanksgiving fun
Hanukkah is the Jewish "Festival of Lights," celebrating the Jews' victory over Antiochus, the Syrian king. After defeating the Syrians and reclaiming their temple, the Jews rekindled the menorah, a holy candelabra. Although the menorah had only enough oil to burn for one day, it burned for eight days. In celebration of this "miracle of Hanukkah," the holiday lasts eight days and nights,
Many students will go home this weekend to celebrate Thanksgiving on Thursday, but many Jewish students will keep the party rollin' on Friday night when they celebrate the first night of Hanukkah.
KU's Hillel House, 940 Mississippi St., will close tonight for Thanksgiving break, and will reopen on Monday morning. Because the house will not be open during the beginning of Hanukkah, Hillel has planned a variety of Hanukkah-related activities for next week, said Jay Lewis, executive director for KU Hillel.
and is celebrated by lighting a menorah each night, eating traditional Hanukkah foods and exchanging gifts.
"Most people are going home for the first weekend, so we're putting a lot of emphasis programming-wise on next week," Lewis said. "We've tried to plan something for every single night of Hanukkah."

Food fight! RAs battle for cans

Templin Hall resident assistants were up to their necks in food last night.
Cranberry sauce and mashed potatoes drapped from the RAs as a reward for the hall's food drive. The two floors that gathered the most food were promised that their RAs would wrestle on a tarp covered with food.
Jackie Bates, Hoisington junior and Templin third floor RA, said her floor had donated about 75 cans to put them in second place for the main event. She said she knew her residents had donated because of the wrestling stipulation.
"They said something about me wearing a swimsuit, but that's not happening." Bates said before the match.

KU Med documentary to debut tonight
The University of Kansas Medical Center will show a documentary tonight on area television stations about its month-long program that places fourth-year medical students in rural hospitals.
"Medicine on the Kansas Prairie will air at 9 p.m. on KTWU of Topeka, which is Sunflower Cable's channel 11. KPTS of Wichita and Smoky Hills Public Television, Kansas City residents can see the program on the UMKC channel on Time Warner Cable.The 30-minute film showcases the Kansas Rural Preceptor Program, now in its 50th year.
"We really wanted to demonstrate the history of the program," said Dan Ginavan, director of the film and Kansas Video Network project manager at the Med Center.
He said the program was originally created to encourage medical practice in rural areas during a World War II shortage of physicians. Now the program gives students an opportunity to connect with patients and mentors, which a demanding, urban hospital such as the Med Center cannot offer, he said.

Bush nominates Tom Ridgeto lead Homeland Security
WASHINGTON — President Bush yesterday named Tom Ridge to head the new Department of Homeland Security but said the department can "neither predict nor prevent every conceivable attack."
"We're doing everything we can to protect America," Bush said. "In a free and open society, no department of government can completely guarantee our safety against ruthless killers who move and plot in shadows."
Bush asked the Senate to confirm his nomination of Ridge and named two deputies: Navy Secretary Gordon England and Drug Enforcement Administration chief Asa Hutchinson.
As the president's homeland security adviser, Ridge has won praise for improving communication between Washington and local governments.
Bush has given Ridge a daunting assignment to combine nearly two dozen agencies, $40 billion in budgets and 170,000 employees.

First team of U.N. inspectors begins Iraq weapons search
BAGHDAD, Iraq — The first team of U.N. inspectors landed in Iraq yesterday to take up the hunt for chemical, biological or nuclear arms programs, a search whose outcome could help determine the future of peace in the Middle East.
A white C-130 transport, emblazoned with a simple "UN," touched down at Saddam International Airport carrying a contingent of 18 international arms monitors and their cargo of high tech sensors, computers and other gear. They had assembled earlier at a U.N. rear base on the Mediterranean island of Cyprus.
The team comprised of six nuclear experts from the International Atomic Energy Agency in Vienna and 12 inspectors from the New York-based U.N. commission charged with searching for other weapons of mass destruction, left the airport without speaking to reporters.
After a four-year suspension, this crucial new round of surprise inspections will begin tomorrow morning, when inspectors likely will revisit an unidentified Iraqi site previously inspected in the 1990s. Among other things, they may check on cameras and other monitoring equipment left behind by earlier inspectors.
Later, the inspectors will branch out to new or rebuilt sites—including, for example, suspected storage places for chemical weapons that U.S. intelligence alleges are still held by Iraq.
"We have the right to inspect any sites at any time," said Hiro Ueki, Baghdad spokesman for the U.N. Monitoring, Verification and Inspection Commission, known as UNMOVIC.

Today is last chance for library renovation suggestions
By Michelle Burhenn mburhenn@kansan.com mbatwen staff writer Kansan staff writer
Today is the last day a library task force will take public comment about future renovations in Watson Library.
A task force e-mailed a survey to a random sample of 3,400 students, faculty and staff and also distributed the survey at library service desks. Stella Bentley, dean of libraries, created the Watson Library Reconfiguration Task Force after University of Kansas libraries received money from the tuition enhancement plan, which was
announced last month.
The task force will review the library's public space and make recommendations to improve its appearance and usability with a portion of the money that KU Libraries will receive over the next four years. The libraries will receive $800,000 in the 2003 fiscal year, $500,000 in both 2004 and 2005 and $1 million in 2006.
Bill Myers, director of library development, said changing the library stacks was not an option, but making the library easier to use was something the library administration wants to work on
"It's outdated in work and
style, but it's also just worn out," Myers said. "We want this to be a welcoming, attractive place for users."
Myers said Watson Library had not had a renovation for about 20 years; and the administration wants it to be less confusing and brighter.
He said although administration and employees had some ideas about how to improve the library, the task force would rely on survey results to determine its options.
"Students are the primary users.That's who we want to hear from and respond to." he said.
Myers said the library had
received about 800 completed surveys.
The survey asked recipients what they would like changed in the library. More group study areas, a coffee shop, clearer organization and a brighter entryway were some options on the survey. Myers said the task force would present its recommendations to the dean during winter break.
Matt Seger, Newton junior, said the library should be easier for students to use.
"It's huge," Seger said. "When I first used the library my freshman year, it was way too overwhelming."
"We want this to be a welcoming, attractive place for users."
Bill Myers Director of Library Development
Seger said he recommended the library install more signs to aid first-time users.
A brighter library would create a better study area for students and a better work environment, said Stefanie Warlick, a circulation supervisor.
"This is what I look at," said the 2002 graduate as she looked into the Watson entryway. "If you go to Anschutz, it's so bright and a
nicer place to be."
Cody jackson, circulation desk student assistant and Nickerson junior, said the University should not waste its money to improve the library's appearance and instead should focus on improving student services.
services. "I would see it as a waste of money to repaint floors and ceilings just to attract students," he said. "The problem is that we'd ideally do everything on the survey, but obviously we're limited."

After working in the White House for six years, it's been hard for Janet Murguia to kick her C-SPAN habit.
Considering her 15-year stint in Washington, D.C., working for former President Bill Clinton, and Al Gore's presidential campaign, Murgula's affinity for politics might be understandable.
After leaving the University of Kansas in 1985 with three degrees, Murguia returned to the University in July 2001 as executive vice chancellor for University Relations.
"I tell people now that I'm back, the only political party I represent is the Jayhawk party," she said.
Even in the White House Murguia always showed her true colors— blue and red, she said. Her screen saver read "Rock Chalk Jayhawk, Go KU."
Murguia received law, Spanish and journalism degrees from KU. For part of that time, she worked as an intern at KU's public radio station, KANU-FM. Now, she is in charge of it.
Lured from Washington to Kansas by a job offer from Chancellor Robert Hemenway, Murgia started working for KU in July 2001. As the executive vice chancellor, she oversees public relations at each of KU's campuses, the public radio station, visitor services and the special events and trademark licensing office.
One of Murgia's main priorities is creating a support system for first-generation students of color in order to bring to and keep them at KU, especially at the graduate level.
"Obviously, having been a student of color at the University of Kansas and being a Latina in a senior administrative position at this University, I feel I have an obligation, a responsibility and a
commitment to make sure that we are doing everything we can on behalf of the University to pursue diversity." Murgia said.
That dedication was evident to Alex Guerrero when he heard Murguia speak at a Hispanic American Leadership Organization meeting three weeks ago. Murguia's talk made the first-generation Topeka senior think about attending graduate school more seriously, he said.
"It was inspiring," he said. "I had never thought about it when I first came to KU, but the more you learn about school, the more you learn you've got to keep going to get a good job."
Murgia's twin sister, Mary, and her brother Carlos are federal judges for the U.S. District Courts of Arizona and Kansas. Another brother, Ramon, is a lawyer who served as chairman of the largest Hispanic advocacy organizations, La Raza. They all grew up in Argentine, a Mexican-American neighborhood in
Kansas City, Kan., and all of the Murguia clan, except Mary, live in the Kansas City area.
These family ties made Murguia's decision to come back to Kansas easy.
"My heart was always in Kansas," she said.
Bringing Murguia back to KU was a natural choice for the school, too. Hemenway said.
When he spoke with Murguia in Washington, D.C., Hemenway said he was aware of her public relations abilities.
"She's been very effective in helping us see the value in interacting with the public, determining a message for KU and communicating that KU is an incredible University with all kinds of positive things going on all the time," Hemenway said. "I think there is no more dedicated Jayhawk than Janet Murguia. She is very effective in sharing that enthusiasm with other people."

Roles will differ as men march in Womyn Take Back Night
If you have ever walked down Massachusetts Street and seen about 200 women marching together, chant-
GUEST COMMENTARY
1. women marching together, chanting, "Yes means yes and no means no, whatever I wear, wherever I go!" you were probably witnessing the Womyn Take Back the Night march.
Take Back the Night is a protest against sexual and domestic violence and the oppression of women.

Lea Carland
opinion@kansan.com
The KU Womyn's Empowerment Action Coalition, or WEAC, sponsors Lawrence's march, which began 15 years ago and has been a community tradition ever since.
For many years, an ongoing discourse has surrounded men's involvement in the event. Lawrence's march has always included men and women grouped together during the rally and the closing, where demands are read. But speakout circles are divided into a women's and a men's circle, and the march downtown has only included women, transexual and intersexual folks.
After much deliberation and input, WEAC has decided to stick to some traditions and make changes as well.
As always, the pre-march rally will be open to people of all genders, but the speakout circles will remain separate. Transexuals and intersexuals are welcome at either circle, whichever would be more comfortable.
WEAC envisions a world where all genders share complete equality and separate circles are unnecessary.
WEAC recognizes that we do not live in that world yet; we live in a world where women and transsexuals are disproportionately the victims of sexual and domestic violence at the hands of men and are oppressed by a patriarchal society.
Because of this, it feels unsafe and threatening for many women to speak out about their experiences in front of men. The men's circle is also a unique opportunity for men to share with one another freely — something that rarely happens.
Men will be marching downtown for the first time, but their role will be different from that of women.
The march on Massachusetts Street is symbolic — it is empowering for women and transexuals who are routinely afraid of walking at night to march together screaming out chants and feeling safe.
Hearing the chanting of about 200 women is empowering for many people because women's voices are silenced time and time again.
WEAC did not want to lose the symbolism of the march, yet it wanted to make a place for men who support ending the violence and oppression against women.
Do you w
The conclusion is that men will walk together in silence behind the women. This arrangement will make a statement that there are men who support women enough to stand silently behind them so that the women can be seen, and their voices be heard.
The Womyn Take Back the Night march is an opportunity for the whole community to come together to speak out against violence, hate and inequality.
For one night survivors can feel safe in their bodies. Men can feel safe showing emotions in front of other men and women, transexuals and intersexuals can feel safe on the street at night.
Womyn Take Back the Night will be held in April this year in honor of National Sexual Assault Awareness Month.
If you would like to help organize the Womyn Take Back the Night march, please contact WEAC at ku_weac@hotmail.com.

Dropping the f-bomb on the front page, or any page for that matter, is right out.
Your poor use of language in Thursday's "Sliding off the edge" reflects poor reporting, poorer editing, lousy news judgment and the basest of shock-jock mentality.
I've talked with sailors and farm folk who've been known to use salty language, and they, too, are shocked by the depth to which The University Daily Kansan has sunk.
The story was simply a vain attempt to gain personal honorotey and build a clips file. A panel of judges

It shows total disregard for the sensitivity of all readers.

Contradictory 'Report Card'
Public Relations Director of Engineering
When reading The University Daily Kansan on Nov. 8, I had to shake my head in amazement once again at the contradictory nature of the Kansan Report Card.
The Report Card passed increased voter registration and credited the Student Legislative Awareness Board and other groups with that increase.
However, on Oct. 11, the Report Cart failed the Save Johnson campaign.
To me, this is a blatant contradiction. Save Johnson was the SLAB initiative that caused the 70 percent increase in voter registration.
Want more evidence?
The Report Card damns the campaign
prior to the election and praises the result of the campaign after the election.
On Sept. 27, the Report Card failed the passing of the Senate blood drive bill. On Oct. 4 the Report Card passed a record blood donation.
Again, the extreme contradiction appalls me. To fail the action but praise the result is ridiculous.
In both of these cases, the outcomes of the projects would have been dramatically different without the actions taken by SLAB and Student Senate
While the Report Card might not have agreed with the action, clearly, in these cases, Senate positively influenced voter turnout and blood donation. Those are both worthy causes. I beg of the Report Card to stop slamming initiatives that can benefit students, the Lawrence community and the state of Kansas.
Also, students should be aware that the opinions of the Report Card come from only one person, and rarely is there enough information included in the Report Card to allow readers to form their own opinions.
Why isn't the Report Card generated by the editorial board or a group of staff members from the Kansan? The Report Card creates misperceptions and limited perspectives from only one source, yet is entitled the Kansan's Report Card.
Advice to students; Read the Report Card to determine the opinion of one person; read other sources to develop your own opinion.

Josh Magaha, Basehor junior, spends about 30 hours per week volunteering at the Fairmount Township Fire Department in Basehor. "It's an adrenaline rush to sit in a house with flames around you," he said.

vekomanyvong@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
At 4:54 p.m. Friday, the Fairmount Township Fire Department in Basehor received a medical emergency call.
Grabbing a pair of latex gloves, Basehor junior Josh Magaha hops into a fire truck with four other men.
Five minutes later, they find a woman in her mid-20s lying on a sofa with severe lower-back pain. Magaha puts an oxygen mask over her mouth and takes her vitals. When the local emergency medical service comes, he helps the woman onto a stretcher and into the ambulance.
"We do the same thing regular firefighters do except their training is stricter, and they get paid," said Magaha, who lives in Leavenworth.
Although this may seem like a day's work for Magaha, it's not. He and 30 other residents from Basehor, about five miles northwest of Bonner Springs, spend their free time as volunteer firefighters.
Receiving a paycheck does not matter as long as he can help people,he said.His father and grandfather also volunteering at the department,making Magaha a third-generation firefighter.
"There's just something in my blood," Magaha said. "It's like a drug in a sense that you're addicted to it. It's an adrenaline rush to sit in a house with flames around you."
His father, Chuck Magaha, assistant chief of the Fairmount Township Fire Department, said his son had wanted to be a firefighter since he was little.
Magaha takes 12 hours of classes,works about 16 hours as a paid personal trainer for KU Fit and volunteers about 30 hours at the fire department each week.
"Since I didn't have a babysitter, I would take Josh and his brother to the fire station when they were younger," Magaha's dad said. "As he got older, he would always ask me to take him with me to put out grass fires."
Jake Harrison, a fellow volunteer, said Magaha was passionate about volunteer fire fighting.
"Even though he didn't have to get medical training, he went to EMT school for a year to get certified," Harrison said.
To become a volunteer firefighter, residents have to take an eight-week Firefighter I class.
They also have to attend training sessions at least once a month.
One of the training sessions requires volunteers to maneuver their bodies through a 2-foot by 2-foot, 8-foot long, woodencased tunnel with four metal rods sticking through different levels within the tunnel. Once they crawl through it, they have to slide through a 42-diameter inch circle to get out.
"The exercise builds up your confidence in a fire," Magaha said.
"In a fire, you have to feel your way around because you can't see anything. This exercise teaches you how to get through tight spaces."
Although the fire department receives more medical emergency calls than fire calls, Magahaa said, receiving all kinds of
training was important.
"When people think of fire fighting, they think of us putting out fires," Magaha said. "But people don't realize that we help in car accidents, rescue situations and gas cleanups."
Magaha has volunteered for three years, and said he would not mind becoming a fullfledged firefighter. First, he wants to get his degree in athletic training with a pre-medical emphasis, he said.
"I want to have a four-year degree, so I can move up in rankings when I become a firefighter," he said. "I would also really like to go to medical school to become a cardiologist."

International students at the University of Kansas who can't go home for Thanksgiving will have the opportunity to stay with American families for the holiday.
For the 48th year, families in Lawrence and surrounding areas will host KU international students as part of the Betty Grimwood Thanksgiving Homestay Program.
"It's an opportunity for the hosts, too, because they'll get to learn about other cultures," she said.
Carol Dias da Silva, program coordinator, said the program was an opportunity for international students to learn about the American tradition and to get to know families in the area. She said the students could stay connected with the families after the holiday.
David Mutabazi, Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania, sophomore, said he was interested in getting to know an American family and learning how they cooked.
Jorge Carvajal-Espinoza, San
Jose, Costa Rica, graduate student, said this was his first year at the University.
"I'd like to learn the customs and traditions of Americans, and share their experience," he said. "I don't know very much about Thanksgiving."
Dias da Silva said 28 students and 27 families signed up to participate in the program this year.
Sharon Foree, Lawrence resident and administrative assistant for the Graduate School and International Programs, said she would host a student at her house. The student will join Foree and about 17 family members for Thanksgiving.
"We hosted two Fulbright Scholars before and enjoyed it immensely," she said.
Hosting a guest can create family harmony during the holiday because everyone is on their best behavior, said Audrey Kamb, a Lawrence resident who will host a student.
She said it would be an educational experience for the family.

Student sells cosmetics despite KU housing rules
By Lauren Bristow and Lauren Karp Special to the Kansas
Sunday afternoon, Meladie Giddens, Elkhart senior, prepared to teach facials and make-up application to two Mary Kay customers. As she waited for her students to arrive, Giddens set out a variety of skin care products on the kitchen table in her Jayhawker Towers apartment.
When the women arrived, one a fellow student and the other a woman in her mid-40s. Giddens proceeded to teach them numerous ways to care for their skin and the correct way to apply makeup.
After the hour-long facial, one customer purchased $120 worth of products, and the other chose to think about what she wanted to purchase.
"I started selling Mary Kay when I was 18," Giddens said. "I knew it was a great way to make extra money."
Giddens is a Mary Kay Independent Beauty Consultant and one of many college women who sell catalog cosmetics to help finance the cost of college.
Giddens said she thought at least 20 University of Kansas students sell Mary Kay products on campus.
The two major cosmetic companies that employ students are Mary Kay and Avon.
Jamie Webb, an Avon district sales manager, said Avon was always looking for KU students to sell their products. She said she had only five to six students working for her right now.
Both Mary Kay and Avon consultants make a commission on the total amount of products sold.
"It's a great way for girls to make extra money." Webb said. "On average, girls can work four or five hours per week and make about $50 per week."
One challenge cosmetic consultants face on campus is a rule that prohibits businesses from being run in housing owned by the University of Kansas Department of Student Housing.
"Selling Mary Kay and similar products from on-campus housing is considered a business and
"Selling Mary Kay and similar products from on-campus housing is considered a business and is absolutely prohibited."

is absolutely prohibited," said Diana Robertson, associate director of student housing.
According to Robertson, if she hears of a business being run in on-campus housing she will speak to the owner and absolve that business.
"Basically, the owner needs to find a new place to run the business," Robertson said. "Get a post office box-just find a new place."
One reason Robertson gives for prohibiting businesses in on-campus housing is the annoyance it causes other residents.
"You don't want to be bugged about buying things when you're at your place of residence," Robertson said.
One way Melanie Verser, Olathe freshman, has continued to conduct her Mary Kay business is by living in a private residence hall, Naismith Hall.
"Naismith has been very good about letting me sell Mary Kay." Verser said.
Verser conducted a Mary Kay holiday open house in Naismith's lobby on Saturday.
"Basically all residents need to do is get property permission," said Matt Miksch, the assistant resident director at Naismith. "We also have a rule that if it's something special like an open house, we ask the business owner to give students a special discount."
Milsch said Naismith hadn't seen any problems with residents running businesses.
KU students have a variety of housing options. Although businesses are not allowed in on-campus housing, students can choose to run a business from their rooms in hopes of not getting caught, or they can chose to live in a private residence that allows businesses.

The living room is spacious and features a large window that allows natural light to fill the space. The wooden deck, with its smooth surface and horizontal lines, adds a touch of elegance to the room. A cat sits peacefully on the floor, enjoying the quiet atmosphere.
In the background, there is a modern house with a flat roof and large windows. The exterior design combines clean lines and minimalistic elements, creating a stylish and contemporary look. The tree in front of the house provides shade and adds a natural element to the scene.

decided they were on the market for a house, just as the house was being built.
Alan Bowes, director of Tenants to Homeowners, a Lawrence not-for-profit organization that finances home buyers, mentioned to the couple that students were building the house.
Johnson said she and Scott were immediately sold on the idea because it would be "built by idealists."
"When we bought it, we didn't know what it was going to look like," Karen Johnson said. "We just didn't imagine anything normal."
She described the house as being "built like a tank." The house is framed by 2-by-6-inch studs, allowing for thicker walls and more insulation.
"We bought the house when it was a foundation," Johnson said. "We watched it go all the way up until it was finished in August. We got to be really intimate with the students, and it was just a great experience for all of us."
Johnson said the students who built the house had not returned since its completion, but new generations of students always came by to take a look.
$\textcircled{2}$ Management
ABOVE: The house at 1144 Pennsylvania St. was the second Studio 804 house, built with grants from the city of Lawrence. The solar light box takes advantage of sunlight on the exposed south wall.
Construction on the newest house, at 17th Street and Atherton Court, begins next semester.
Studio 804 is typically the last year of study for graduate students, although fifth-year undergraduate students occasionally participate in the program.
Students do all the construction work themselves, except for plumbing, electrical, and heating and air conditioning work. The city requires a licensed tradesperson for that.
The houses are scheduled for completion by graduation day.
"There's nothing more discouraging than, the Monday after graduation, to meet with them and realize there's still two or three weeks of work to do," Rockhill said.
With as few as eight and as many as 20 students every year, the class begins to learn management techniques in the fall semester from Kent Spreckelmeyer, professor of architecture.
During his three-credit-hour course, they interview former clients, gather zoning permits and research materials with which to build a 1,300 square-foot house.
"The main challenges of the students are to work within a very tight time frame and also try to match the realities with what they've done with the materials they have," Spreckelmeyer said.
A comparably sized Lawrence house would require about $160,000 and six months to
build, Rockhill said. Studio 804 homes are built on a tight budget of about $80,000 and are finished in four months.
Tenants to Homeowners provides the money to build the house. About 30 percent of the materials for the house are
Although the students aren't professional builders, Rockhill said construction typically ran
donated or heavily discounted.
Several years ago, a board blew off the side of a house and hit a truck, but no mishaps stand out in his mind as disasters.
"I am so braced for the unexpected that there isn't much anymore that surprises me," he said.
smoothly.
Weather is typically the biggest obstacle in construction — especially rain, Rockhill said. But balancing egos is the most persistent challenge.
Clients are not consulted in the design process because that would add too many opinions to the mix, he said.
"I can teach anybody how to weld," he said. "The most difficult part is the psychology of keeping 18 people from killing each other."
$\textcircled{3}$ Making changes
The spring semester begins early for Studio 804. This year's 18 students will return to school Jan.3 to begin designing the house. Once a building permit is secured, Rockhill and students in his six-credit-hour course meet at the construction site, where they will spend more than 60 hours a week building the house they designed.
Two years ago, Billy Williams, Lawrence graduate student, and 14 others designed and built the house at 1603 Random Road — a three-bedroom, two-bathroom house with a recycled gymnasium floor in the main living area.
The house took first place awards from the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture and in an international competition for sustainable design.
Jessica Fishback, St. Louis senior, said she enrolled in the class because she wanted to end her academic career with a "big bam."
She said real-life application of the skills she learned on previous design projects would help her in the future.
"You can only understand so much by using a two-dimensional drawing." Fishback said.
Fishback and her classmates were most concerned that the group would get along and finish the project by graduation.
She said she still wanted to return to the house once it was completed and hoped the homeowners would appreciate its architectural value and not make significant design changes.
"Even the ones that are already built and I haven't designed, I see changes have been made and it makes me sad," Fishback said of other Studio 804 homes.
$\textcircled{4}$ Pushing the envelope
After completing its first two homes, Studio 804 began partnering with Tenants to Homeowners, Inc. rather than the city
The organization finds and buys the building site and matches clients with the houses. The client rents the house for the first five years and then has the option to buy.
The biggest difference between working with the city and Tenants to Homeowners is that now the house must be handicapped accessible.
Neighbors aren't always as prepared for the finished houses.
This year, no client has been selected for the house, but prospective renters are always told the house will have a unique look, said Rebecca Buford, associate director for the organization.
Lawrence resident Gaby Holcomb lived across the street from the Johnsons' house and described it as ugly and out-ofplace.
She has since moved from that neighborhood, but said she now lived near two other Rockhill houses.
"I think the concept of building a house like that is good, having the students do a project," Holcomb said. "But I also think part of architecture is learning how to design something that sort of fits into the neighborhood."
With the Johnsons' house, Holcomb said the original plans had been changed after they'd been approved, but there was nothing she or her neighbors could do to affect the construction.
It is common to revise designs during the construction process, no matter who builds them, Rockhill said. He said the lessons learned from Studio 804 and the mission of the school outweighed the community reaction.
"As with anything that's different, you're bound to get a reaction — a questioning of what we're doing." Rockhill said.
Not everyone questions Studio 804's results.
Julia Snow moved two years ago from her trailer in North Lawrence to a Studio 804 home at 216 Alabama St. She said a man from Germany came to her door several months ago and offered her $50 to tour her home.
"He came to the house and said, 'You don't know how well-known these homes are,' " Snow said.
Rockhill said he and his students were prepared for the attention and reactions the houses received because they'd heard them all before.
"The criticism is because we're not interested in mediocrity," Rockhill said. "It's important to push the envelope."

KU freshman happy to be 21st-century hippie
I will do what you need.
Anton Bubnovskiy/Kansan
Kate Spreitler, St. Louis, Mo., freshman, decorates a bouquet with some papers that she bought in a store. She designed her dorm room with bright colors to take guests back to the 70s.
By Vonna Keomanyvong
vkeomanyvong@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Every face in the crowd and every name in the phone book has a story behind it. Each week, Kansan writer Vonna Keomanyrong tells the story of a randomly selected KU student.
When Kate Spreitler designed her dorm room, she made sure to use colors that would take guests into a different time period: the '70s.
Her bed sheets are tie-dyed. She has a green, orange and brown rug in the middle of the floor. She even cut and hemmed strips of blue and gold fabric together to make a curtain for the window.
The St. Louis, Mo., freshman, said she designed her room that way because she felt she was born in the wrong decade.
"It would have been so much fun to be a teen in the '70s," Spreitler said. "People didn't care so much about what people did. It was just peace, love and happiness."
For Spreitler, designing things makes her happy, she said. Besides creating a curtain for her room, she makes necklaces and rings out of scraps of jeans.
"Everything I do is pretty spur of the moment," she said. "If I don't fit my clothes, I cut my jeans to make them fit right. And I keep the leftovers to make other stuff."
The 19-year-old said she wanted to use her creativity to design houses. Spetitler, who is an architecture major, said she became interested in the subject after taking an architectural designing class in
high school.
Her father, Mark Spreitler, said creative freedom was his daughter's top priority and that it was more important for her to be happy than tied down to a tough major.
"When she interviewed at KU she was pretty scared that she would be more involved than she ever wanted to," he
said, "she likes her social life and she was afraid the major was going to interfere."
Stacy Cantu, Spreitler's best friend, said Kate's '70s vibe extended to her attitude.
"I worry about everything," Cantu said. "One time, I wasn't truthful to my parents about where I was going and I was wigging out. But Kate was calm and
she just kept on telling me that everything would be OK."
Spreiter said people should always have a laid back attitude about life.
"Be yourself and have fun," she said. "It's important to have fun because you're only a kid once."

Lewis said he was glad that students could celebrate both at home and at the University.
"It's a neat opportunity, because often it falls during finals or over winter break and therefore Jewish students at KU don't
get to celebrate with other students." he said.

"They really wanted to see him wrestle," Davis said.
The hall favorite was fourth floor RA Luke Bauer, said Jon Davis, assistant complex director for Templin. The Newton graduate student said Bauer's floor had donated 345 of the total of 511 cans from the six floors.
"I had a couple of key supporters on my floor," he said.
Bauer, Lawrence senior, said he thought his residents had shown their adoration by donating more food.
The Templin Hall Council organized the event with Davis' help, said Julia Gaston, counell member. The Oklahoma City sophomore said some residents donated to floors other than their own.
"People from different floors definitely wanted to see certain RAs wrestle." Gaston said.
She said the race for second place was neck and neck until Bates emerged as the winner yesterday morning.
Most of the other RAS decided to reward their floors for the effort, Gaston said.
Stacey Reding, Alma senior and sixth floor RA, said 11 cans from her floor weren't enough to justify cleaning mashed potatoes out of her ears.
"I didn't feel like they earned it." Reding said.
The five remaining RAs participated in a battle royal at Templin's main lobby last night.
Residents had been collecting the food in decorated bins in the main lobby since the beginning of November, Gaston said. She said the hall would distribute the food to local food banks.
"It was worth it," said Mike Lemon. Bonner Springs junior and second floor RA. "It was for a good cause."

Preseason NIT battle pits Jayhawks against Williams' alma mater
By Jessica Scott jscott@kansan.com kansan sportswriter
The program he idolizes, a school he loves and the game he breathes all will merge together tomorrow in New York City.
It's all part of Roy Williams' life.
Kansas will play North Carolina in the semifinals of the Preseason NIT at 8 p.m. tomorrow at Madison Square Garden. The Tar Heels — who almost lured Williams right out of Lawrence nearly three years ago — have close ties to the Jayhawk coach. A North Carolina native, Williams worked under his mentor Dean Smith on the North Carolina coaching staff, and today the Tar Heels are coached by former Kansas assistant Matt Doherty.
"I don't think anybody loves that basketball program like I love it," Williams said. "It's not just Matt Doherty — it's North Carolina. Tar Heel born, Tar Heel bred, Tar Heel dead."
But Kansas was too good a place to leave behind. Williams kept the entire country in suspense when he wrestled with taking the head coaching position after coach Smith retired. Now, he must face the team that he once dreamed of playing for, and this time it is coached by a man that Williams taught.
But, Williams said, he had never regretted his decision to stay.
"I'm in Kansas, I'm a Jayhawk. That
ain't gonna change. I love that," he
said. "I've tried to really not look back and really tried to focus on the Kansas people being happy that I stayed here. It was not an easy decision."
However, it was a decision that opened up a head-coaching door for Doherty, who echoes Williams' mixed emotions about playing a close friend.
"He's like a big brother to me," Doherty said. "You don't like to play against someone you care about, because someone is going to lose. And sometimes when you win those games you feel worse than you do if you lose because you feel bad for the other person. But once the ball goes up, it's going to be Carolina's players against Kansas' players."
That's how the Jayhawks feel going into tomorrow night's matchup. Sophomore Keith Langford, who scored a career-high 24 points in Friday's victory against the University of North Carolina-Greensboro, said this game was just another day on the job for his team and his coach.
"He doesn't want to get caught up in the North Carolina/Kansas thing," Langford said. "To me, North Carolina is just another opponent."
Langford's teammate Wayne Simien said he feels a bit differently

Women's basketball team plays two teams in tournament escapes freezing Kansas weather

temperatures in Lawrence are supposed to drop below freezing every night of the Thanksgiving break, but staying warm won't be a problem for the Kansas women's basketball team. The Jayhawks (1-0) are headed for the gentle climate of southern California.
The trip won't be all vacation for Kansas, as the team will play two games against West Coast Conference opponents. The Jayhawks face the Cal State-Fullerton Titans at 4 p.m. tomorrow and San Diego Toreros at 9 p.m. on Saturday.
The games will be Kansas's first since beating the University of Texas-El Paso in its season opener Sunday. Kansas coach Marian Washington said the 63-60 victory and following trip would give the Jayhawks an opportunity to build momentum.
"As young as they are, they're going to be a very fine team in the future," Washington said. "So we're going to go to California and try to get a couple more."
The game was also on the minds of Washington's
players shortly after the game. Freshman forward Crystal Kemp said she was looking forward to visiting California, but she said she didn't want to be away from her family for Thanksgiving.
"I won't get to be with my family, that's the only thing," she said. "But I have a new family now."
Any homesickness the players might feel should be softened by the Jayhawks' pleasant surroundings. The team will spend the holiday in the 70-degree weather of San Diego, and Kemp said she wanted to visit Sea World.
Sophomore guard Aquanita Burras never mentioned Sea World, but she is still thrilled to be traveling to the West Coast. She thinks Mother Nature might be looking forward to seeing the Jayhawks in the Sunshine State as well.
Kansas will be seeking its first victories against both programs. The Jayhawks have never met San Diego, and Cal State-Fullerton holds a 2-0 advantage in the all-time series.
"I heard that it might be raining, but when Kansas comes in, the sun might come out for us," she said.
The games against Kansas will be the third of the season for the Titans and Toreros. Cal State-Fullerton played the University of New Mexico in a game late last night. Results were unavailable at press time. San Diego will play Denver University tonight.

'Hawks seek to secure postseason appearance
By Jason Hwang

Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas volleyball team's hopes of postseason play could come down to its final two matches.
The Jayhawks (18-9 overall, 9-9 Big 12 Conference) play their final two matches of the season during Thanksgiving break. They play their final road match against No. 22 Kansas State (19-7, 15-3) at 7 p.m. Wednesday in Ahearn Fieldhouse in Manhattan. Kansas has lost four of its last five matches, including a five-game match against No. 19 Missouri on Saturday at home.
Wednesday's game will be the Jayhawks' third straight against ranked opponents. Kansas has never beaten Kansas State since 1994. In the last five meetings, the Wildcats won by a 3-0 sweep, including an Oct. 16th loss in Lawrence.
"We respect K-State. They're a great team," said senior Jaime Morningstar. "We know we just need to prepare ourselves and take care of our side of the court. They are a good home team. We have to accept that and overcome that."
The Wildcats, who had a 13-match winning streak snapped by Texas on Saturday, are second in opponent hitting percentage and first in digs in the Big 12. Junior libero Laura Downey-Wallace leads the Big 12 in digs with an 5.48 aver

Winning: a dream come true after nightmare season
The Jayhawks went 5-25 overall and 0-16 in the Big 12 Conference, with their final victory coming Dec. 29 against Morgan State. Kansas was the first team to go winless in the Big 12 and broke the team record for fewest conference wins in a season — five, in both the 1988-89 and 2000-01 seasons.
Last season must have been a nightmare for coach Marian Washington and the Kansas women's basketball team.
If Sunday's home opener against the University of Texas-El Paso was any indication, though, last season may soon be an afterthought.
With just more than three minutes left, the Jayhawks went on an 8-2 run that closed out a 63-60 victory against the Miners. Kansas had just one come-from-behind victory last year, a 62-61
decision against Alabama State when senior Selena Scott stole the ball with 10 seconds left and made a layup for the victory.
Freshman point guard Erica Hallman, who was Miss Kentucky Basketball as a high school senior, led the Jayhawks late against the Miners and should continue to do so. She looked a little tentative after missing the exhibition season with a partially torn anterior cruciate ligament in her right knee, but when Hallman gets used to leading the offense and handling in-game pressure, she should be the best point guard Washington has coached since Tamecka Dixon, who now plays for the Los Angeles Sparks in the WNBA.
With the poise already shown by this year's young squad, the Jayhawks may have more comebacks than Michael Jordan or fashion trends.
SPORTS COMMENTARY
OF STATE
Levi Chronister lehonister@kansan.com
Hallman averaged 21.1 points her final year of high school, but that average should come down as she looks to pass more.
Hallman will have plenty of options when she does pass, first and foremost being forward Crystal Kemp. The Topeka High graduate averaged 21.7 points and 11.4 rebounds her senior year and did nearly as well in her college debut, scoring 21 points and grabbing 10 rebounds
Kemp did struggle against the Miners' zone defense in the second half — going scoreless for nearly 10 minutes — but is a physical inside force who nicely compliments Hallman's outside game.

Sophomore guard Aquanita Burras provides another youthful spark of energy. Burras, a transfer from Central Arizona Community College, scored 13 points in the season opener. The best
Speaking of inside-outside play, freshman Tamara Ransburg provides a well-rounded attack for Kansas. At 6-foot-4, Ransburg is listed as a forward/center and can certainly match up against taller players, blocking two shots on the baseline against UTEP. She has the speed, agility and shooting touch to play on the wing as well, providing a versatile weapon for Washington.
penetrater on the court, she can score in the paint or outside the lane, hitting a variety of layups and mid-range jumpers against the Miners.
With sophomore Blair Waltz rounding out the starters, Kansas has a youthful top five that is a vast improvement over last year's team. Freshmen Nichelle Roberts, Sereeta Jones and Ebony Haliburton, and sophomore Brandi McGinest give Washington talented options off the bench for when the starters need a rest.
Kansas may never erase the 2001-02 season from anyone's mind, but the young Jayhawks under Washington's wing this year are well on their way to creating new, more pleasant memories.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). Today is a 9.
You're hot, no doubt about it. Are you also wise? Self-disciplined? You're lucky, but can you keep from going too fast and crashing into something? You'll soon find out.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22). Today is a 6.
Again, you'd rather stay in than go out.
But you have obligations. Any chance
you can have it both ways? Ask a creative
person, perhaps the same one who
assigns your duties. Anything is possible.
C
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22). Today is an 8. Don't worry about whether you can keep up. Just do your best and then some. Perhaps this is a stretching exercise for both your mind and body.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21). Today is a 6. Help the people who make the decisions find all the information they need. Others can prosper through your help, and you should do pretty well, too.
C
Sagittarius (Nov.22-Dec.21). Today is a 9. You're amazing. You're innovative, honest, confident and lucky. Launch your attack. Expand your influence. Take new ground!
BALLET
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Today is a 5. You may be able to talk a very important person into a big change at work. Do you need money for better equipment? Does your routine need revision? Pitch your idea now.
LIBRAL TERRESTRIAL
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). Today is a 5. Feel like your creativity is being stifled because you can't do what you want? It could be that exactly the opposite is happening: Your creativity is being strengthened by discipline.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Today is an 8.
Finally, a good day to travel. Too bad it's a

Thursday, but Friday and Saturday

Teams stay at top in poll

The top six teams in The Associated Press college basketball poll held their spots from last week, and the only change in the rankings came at the bottom with Wisconsin moving in at No.25.
The Associated Press
Arizona, Kansas, Texas, Alabama, Pittsburgh and Duke were Nos. 1-6 for the second straight week.
The Arizona Wildcats (1-0) opened the season with a 107-68 victory over Western Kentucky, a loss that dropped the Hilltoppers out of the Top 25. Arizona received 60 first-place votes and 1,740 points from the national media panel.
Kansas (2-0), which beat Holy Cross and North Carolina-Greensboro and advanced to the semifinals of the Preseason NIT, had nine first-place votes and 1,679 points.
Pittsburgh, which beat Duguesne 82-67 in its opener last week, was the only other team to receive a No.1 vote.
Florida, which also advanced to the semifinals of the Preseason NIT, and Oklahoma traded places from last week and were ranked seventh and eighth.
Maryland moved up one spot to lead the second ten and was followed by Connecticut, Marquette, UCLA, Kentucky, Xavier, Georgia, Missouri, Indiana and Gonzaga.
The last five ranked teams were Cincinnati, Tulsa,
Mississippi State, Minnesota and Wisconsin.
Michigan State and Oregon were again ranked Nos. 9 and 10.
Wisconsin (3-0), which beat Wisconsin-Milwaukee 83-72 in its only game last week, is ranked for the first time since being in the poll for the entire 2000-01 season. The Badgers, who have won their three games this season by an average of 21.7 points, reached as high as 10th that season.
Western Kentucky dropped out of the rankings from 19th after the loss at Arizona.
The only other ranked teams to lose last week were Xavier, which dropped from 11th to No. 16 after losing 63-62 at Stanford in the second round of the Presseon NIT, and Mississippi State, which fell from 12th to No. 23 after a 79-76 loss to Louisiana-Lafayette. The Bulldogs played without Mario Austin, who is still awaiting an eligibility ruling from the NCAA.
Seminoles dismiss their QB
The Associated Press
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Florida State quarterback Adrian McPherson was dismissed from the team yesterday amid reports that police planned to question him in the theft and forgery of a blank check.
Coach Bobby Bowden would not give details of the violation, but he said McPherson would remain in school and on scholarship through the end of the semester.
"That's about all I can say." Bowden said. "This is kind of new to me, too."
At the end of yesterday's news conference, sports information director Rob Wilson said the investigation did not involve gambling or point shaving.
No one has been charged in the check forgery, and police would have no further comment until criminal charges are filed, the Tallahassee Police
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Department said in a statement.
The 19-year-old McPherson will not play basketball, either. Last season, he played in three games before deciding to concentrate on football. He is the only Florida
prcp athlete to be named "Mr. Basketball" and
"Mr. Football."
McPherson replaced Chris Rix following a 34-24 loss Oct. 26 to Notre Dame, going 3-1 in four starts.
The two were scheduled to compete for Saturday's start after McPheron struggled in a 17-7 loss Saturday at North Carolina State.
After meeting with McPherson, Bowden informed Rix that he would be the starting quarterback in Saturday's game against No. 15 Florida (8-3, 6-2 Southeastern Conference).

Yes, I'd just like to congratulate Drew Gooden on his wonderful decision to leave the NCAA early. I bet you're kicking your ass now!
Hey, Jeff Boschee, get a life.
about Aaron Miles? Seems like the perfect candidate to me.
about Aaron Miles? Seems like the perfect candidate to me.
Yeah, this is in response to the sports article the other day about Mangino's new nickname "The Bear." Yeah, I just wanted to let you know that there's only one college football coach with the nickname "The Bear," and that's Paul "Bear" Bryant. He started out at Texas A&M and worked his way to Alabama University, where he coached the Crimson Tide to many championships, and he's a living legend. And there's nobody else who deserves the nickname Bear other than him.
Yes, I just read Joey Berlin's article over who would be the trash talker on the basketball team. What
the Kansas men't basketball team in the Preseason NIT tournament?
This is to all the idiots that have been making the Sports Free for All lately. Friday somebody called in and said that the last loss was to Ball State in a preseason game. That was the regular season, you idiot. Our last loss was 23 years ago to Boise State in the preseason, Idiot, idiot, idiot!
the Kansas men't basketball team in the Preseason NIT tournament?
I'd just like to say that even though Steven Vincent is 0 for 7, he's still my hero.
Steven Vincent, he's our man, if he can't air ball, no one can!
Yeah, this is to the poor, poor soul that called in and said that Ball State was the last team to beat KU in the preseason. That was a preseason tournament but a regular season game. It's been years since we lost a preseason game.
the Kansas men't basketball team in the Preseason NIT tournament?

I can't wait to see the movie Kirk Hinrich and the Sorcerer's Stone. Also, did anyone else notice that Aaron Miles looks like Rudy Huxtable? That is all.
the Kansas men't basketball team in the Preseason NIT tournament?
Yeah, it's 3:20 right now, and I'm at the fieldhouse camping out for the KU/UNC game. And some chick totally stole our camping group name. Her sign says "I'm a Wayniac, go #23." We were totally Wayniacs first, freaking troop.

Kansas basketball might go as far as No. 1 in the rankings, but we all know that Roy certainly knows when to choke in the big games. For example, last year against UCLA, or how Oklahoma took the Big 12 trophy by blasting us. Especially Maryland, when Roy put the zone defense in there. That screwed us up. It's Roy Williams who needs to get the monkey off of his back, not the players.

with the picks," Fry said. "A lot of the people from high school I haven't seen in a couple of years."
"A lot of people have come up to me and said they saw the picture of me in the paper
If your reason is D, you know that each of today's panelists has won our little contest before.
Do you hear that? He was reunited with them through their shared love of Kick the Kansan. This contest has a deeper purpose.
Joe Kramer, Ottawa junior, has worn twice. It's also Olathe freshman Erik Hansey's second appearance. Brent Fry, Lenexa junior, likes seeing his picture in the paper so much he has returned for a fourth time.
It's not just about college football, newspaper clippings for your mom's refrigerator or free Mojo's. It's not even about the beautiful Kick the Kansan T-shirt. It's about life and bringing people together.
age per game.
Need more proof?
Hansey and his roommate Daniel Britton, Olathe freshman and former panelist, had an interesting experience while cashing in their Mojo's coupons one Saturday night.
But I ask you, Fry, where were you last week, huh, Huh? Huh? Couldn't hang with 10-1?
That's OK, he's still a good guy. I should know; I have spent enough time talking to him over the course of Kick the Kansan.
"I guess there was another guy in there using his coupon," Hansey said. "We were the only three people on a Saturday night."
it's eerie how this Kick the Kansan circle keeps drawing the world together.
Murphy is a Baldwin senior in journalism.
The Jayhawks won their first match ever in Boulder, Colo., on Sept. 25, beating the then-No. 23 Buffaloes in five games. Kansas has won two of the last home matches against Colorado.
Senior defensive specialist Jennifer Kraft is tied with Catalina Suarez (1985-86) for seventh on Kansas' all-time list in digs (955). Kraft is also three games away from Cyndee Kanabel (1990-93) for seventh all-time in games played.
Kansas plays its final match of the regular season at 7 p.m. Saturday in Horesi Family Athletics Center against Colorado (8-10, 4-14).
"It's kind of scary that this would be the last game at home, but I don't want it to be my last game ever," Kraft said. "I want the season to prolong for the NCAA tournament. If it is a last game ever, I want to do in front of a great crowd we've always had here at Horejsi."
Colorado is sixth in the conference standings after being fourth last year and making the second round of the NCAA Tournament. The Buffalooes finished the year ranked 23rd.
Buffaloes junior middle blocker Monique Gerlach is seventh in the league with a 3.74 kills-per-game average.

IS GOD CALLING YOU AND GETTING A BUSY SIGNAL?
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.
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.
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.
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.

Osbourness shows serious side
The Associated Press
NEW YORK - The Osbournes becomes a reality show in the bleakest sense this season, as Ozzy and the kids cope with matriarch Sharon Osbourne's colon cancer.
Yet as the second batch of episodes begins today, MTV also is trying to maintain the wackiness that made the series the network's biggest hit.
The heavy-metal rocker, his wife and two of their three children are very different people than they were when they opened their home to us a year ago.
They still spew plenty of profanities for the censors to bleep out. And Ozzy still shuffles around the house rambling incoherently about that tricky remote control.
But the Osbournes are no longer just a cuddly dysfunctional family: They're a multimedia empire, with everything from books to bobblehead dolls.
The change is obvious in the first episode, which airs at 10:30 p.m. EST.
Ozzy and Sharon fly to Washington, D.C., for the annual White House Correspondents' dinner, where they're the guests of Fox News Channel's Greta van Susteren.
Back home, 17-year-old son Jack turns the hose on fans who lurk on the Osbournes' front lawn, longing for a peek at the now-famous family and their ever-growing menagerie of dogs and cats.
And daughter Kelly, 18, rehearses for the MTV Movie Awards, where she'll perform her cover of Madonna's "Papa Don't Preach," the first single off her new album, which also comes out today.
"Things are kind of like so good right now," Sharon says as the episode ends. "Everything is really great for us, that I think something's going to come and like, you know, knock us on the chin."
That something comes at the start of episode two: Sharon's diagnosis of colon cancer.
The 50-year-old is characteristically practical in discussing the disease and even invites MTV's cameras along for her first chemotherapy treatment. But the show's tone — and the rest of the family — change irrevocably.
Ozzy alternates between boozing heavily and practicing yoga backstage during the Ozzfest tour
Ozzy admits, "My heart was breaking every night on stage."
But then the action goes back to Jack, surfing in Malibu and fracturing his elbow when he tries to show off by leaping from a pier.
The juxtaposition may seem awkward, but the show's producers say they must document everything if they're going to create authentic reality television.
"The heart and soul will continue to be this extraordinary family set in ordinary situations," said Lois Curren, MTV executive vice president of the series.

KU bowlers rank seventh in poll
By Steve Vockrodt
svrockrodt@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
The promise of Thanksgiving turkey and vacation time this weekend will not deter the University of Kansas club bowling teams from traveling to St. Louis for the 25th Annual National Collegiate Team Match Games.
The men's team, ranked seventh in the most recent National Collegiate Bowling Coaches Association poll, looks to continue its improvement at the tournament. Several of the 52 teams expected to compete are also ranked high.
Coach Mike Fine was pleased with the ranking, KU's highest in the 50-year history of the team.
"That was a neat surprise, but ultimately it does not mean much."Fine said.
He said two teams that ranked higher in the poll, Vincennes and Lindenwood, lost to KU in one of the first two tournaments.
KU was also beat in the rank
ings by a team it travels with. Wichita State University was ranked fifth.
The men placed fifth overall at their last tournament, in Chicago, which was an improvement from last year's seventh-place finish. Jesse James, Lawrence senior, finished second in all-events with a total of 1,793 pins, just five pins short of first place. Jason Elliott, Salina senior, finished ninth.
"They are an elite college bowling program," Fine said.
The key to the bowling team's success has been the return of all but one bowler from last year and a traveling squad that is solid from top to bottom.
"We are a stronger team; we have good skills across the table," Fine said.
Elliot said he saw the team still in early, formative stages with plenty of room for improvement.
"We've bowled well but not put together a full tournament yet," Elliot said. "We have a lot of improving left."
KU will shoot for a top-five finish this weekend at a tournament in which it typically has its poorest performance. The team finished a disappointing 17th last year and 30th the year before.
"They are an elite college bowling program.
Mike Fine Coach
The tournament will gauge KU's position among the elite bowling schools for the national championship in April.
"Right now, there is a group of five or six teams that can legitimately contend for the national championship." Elliot said. "We are in the bottom of that group."
Fine said 25 to 30 family members might also make the trip and spend their Thanksgiving with the team.
"If we want to be a national caliber team, these are the kinds of tournaments we have to go to," Fine said.

"I think this game means a little extra, especially because of coach Williams' ties with North Carolina and him having to make the decision between the two schools," he said. "We're definitely going to try to do it for him and do it for ourselves. It's up for
After numerous phone calls and tournament well-wishes between the two coaches last week, Williams knows in the end, his emotions will have to subside for the sake of basketball.
"We've got to play them, whether I like it or not," he said. "North Carolina is the one that's harder to play than anybody else because I have those feelings. If I had a choice I'd choose not to play them until it was Final Four time."

Broncos face long losing streak
The Associated Press
DENVER — Denver has been the league's best home team under coach Mike Shanahan, winning at a clip of 78 percent since 1995. Even when the Broncos were struggling, they still won in Denver.
Somehow, that hasn't been the case this season.
Despite being one of the best teams in the AFC, Denver's home hasn't been much of an advantage. A 23-20 loss in overtime to Indianapolis Sunday night was the Broncos' third straight at home, their
longest streak since 1994.
It has left Shanahan and his players scratching their heads.
"I don't know. If you can figure it out, let me know, will you?" Shanahan said yesterday. The Broncos are 4-1 on the road but have won just three of six at home. In Shana-
han's first seven seasons, the Broncos had a losing record at home just once, when they went 3-5 in 1999. Denver has won at least six games six times in that span and went 8-0 at home for three straight years (1996-98).
"To me, that is disgusting," Broncos receiver Rod Smith said. "To lose three in a row at home — that's one place you don't lose a game. You should go 8-0 at home. I've never seen anything like it. It hurts."
