Sunday liquors sales likely

City commission votes unanimously to consider ordinance in future meeting
Soon football fans and die-hard Sunday barbecuers might not have to think too far ahead to buy beer.
Following in Leavenworth and Lenexa's footsteps, the Lawrence City Commission moved towards approving
an ordinance for Lawrence Sunday liquor sales by a 5-0 vote last night.
The ordinance will be placed on the commission's agenda for its approval at an undetermined date. The ordinance says that liquor stores could open from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Sundays and on Memorial Day, Independence Day and Labor Day.
Steve Peppes, Leawood senior, said it was about time Lawrence liquor stores opened on Sundays.
Peppes said it was common practice for him and his friends to drive to Missouri on Sundays to buy beer, especially during football season.
The Lawrence City Commission approved an ordinance for Sunday liquor sales by a 5-0 vote. The ordinance will be placed on the Commission's agenda for its approval at an undetermined date.
"We're so close," Peppes said. "Especially if I'm going to a Chief's game."
Zach Bassin, KU graduate and an employee of Cork & Barrel, 901 Mississippi St., said many students had expressed feelings similar to Peppes'.

Funding aids programs; helps with tuition increase
The University of Kansas received a total of $4.5 million from the federal government for low-income and underrepresented minority programs.
Three of the programs, then called the TRIO programs, were created in 1965, but more programs were added later by Congress. The additional funding comes at a time when the Board of Regents increased tuition by 20.7 percent last week.
THE ALEXANDER SUMMER EDITION
Julie Dona, Grinnell, Iowa graduate, Natalie Jones, Prairie village senior, and Andee Hindery, Prairie Village senior, sip on soda as they wait for customers to come to their moving sale. The sale, held Saturday morning in the women's front yard, featured a variety of used goods, from furniture to Cliff's Notes.
"It will enhance the services we are to provide to students," said Robert Rodriguez, project coordinator for the McNair Scholars Program, which received an increase of more than $130,000.

Vice chancellor Murguia named in 'Hispanic' magazine's Top 100
Janet Murguia, University of Kansas executive vice chancellor for university relations, has been named to Hispanic magazine's list of "100 Latinas You Should Know."
Murguia joins celebrities like Jennifer Lopez and Salma Hayek on the list, which includes entertainers, political profession als and business professionals.
Murguia, who worked at the White House and for the Gore/Lieberman campaign before coming to the University, said she appreciated that the magazine included higher education advocates in its list.
"It's one thing to be recognized in the White House but another to be recognized while working for a University," she said.
Murguia earned three degrees from the University: a juris doctorate from the law school in 1985 and bachelor's degrees in journalism and Spanish in 1982.
Summer bargains
She returned to her alma mater in 2001.
"My KU degrees served me well in Washington," Murguia said. "I was able to compete with people from Ivy League schools."
Murguia also serves on the board of directors of La Raza, a nationwide Hispanic advocacy organization.

Design student wins award offers alternative to plastic
Brian Carter, Prairie Village senior, earned the gold award in the 2003 Industrial Design Excellence Awards for his design offering an alternative to traditional plastics.
BusinessWeek magazine and the Industrial Design Society of America selected Carter's project, an identification system to organize 44 bioplastics made from plant fiber, out of 119 entries from all over the world.
The idea for Carter's design began in an industrial design course instructed by professor Lance Rake, who said the award offered many opportunities for Carter.
Carter demonstrated how his design could be used in modern items like a cellular phone or a printer.
In addition to the annual Yearbook of Industrial Design Excellence publishing Carter's name and work, BusinessWeek will include a list of the winners in its July 7 issue.
"Any design firm in the nation would love to win a gold award," Rake said. "So Brian is going to get a lot of attention from the most influential person in the business."
Carter will travel to the IDSA design conference Aug. 13-16 in New York City to receive his award.

City commission OKs construction of sorority
By Maggie Newcomer mnewcomer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Alpha Gamma Delta sorority members will soon have a new house.
The Lawrence City Commission approved a proposal for the sorority's three-story, 13,000-square foot house last night in a 3-2 vote.
The house, which will occupy the lot at 1520 Sigma Nu Place, has been a source of debate between Alpha Gamma Delta members and their future neighbors since the sorority purchased the lot from Sigma Nu fraternity.
Alpha Gamma Delta bought the lot, zoned residential dormitory, two years ago. The area where the sorority wants to build has been a residential dormitory zone since 1966.
The sorority proposed a site plan on April 1, but the issue was deferred until May 6, when it was denied.
Residents on nearby Avalon Road said they thought the house was out of scale with their neighborhood, said Rick Stein, a neighborhood resident.
Stein said his main concern was the size of the building, which will have 24 bedrooms and house 88 women. His neighbors are also concerned with traffic and noise from the house, Stein said.
Katie Hardacre, Overland Park senior and Alpha Gamma Delta president, said her sorority worked hard to accommodate its potential neighbors.
She said landscaping was added and the structure was moved farther from property lines to alleviate noise problems.
"They're worried because of stereotypes," Hardacre said. "We're not allowed to have parties or drink at the house."
Stein also said he thought it would have a negative effect on neighbors' property values.
"It's not because we don't want the AGDs as neighbors," Stein said.
Stein said he realized a lot of people including Alpha Gamma Delta, Sigma Nu and surrounding residents had economic stakes in the house.
Sigma Nu owns another residential dormitory lot directly north of Alpha Gamma Delta's lot.
Chris Schumm, alumni representative for the fraternity, said Sigma Nu planned to sell both lots as dormitory housing to finance its renovation.
Commissioner Dennis "Boog" Highberger said he would be reluctant to approve another dormitory structure at that location.

LIQUOR: Retailers consider Sunday sales CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
Bassin said opening liquor stores on Sundays would keep tax dollars in Lawrence.
Commissioner Mike Rundle said he had yet to hear negative reactions to Sunday liquor sales.
Local liquor store owners, however had mixed reactions.
Dan Blomgren, owner of three Lawrence Cork & Barrels, said he fully supported the ordinance. He said liquor was the only industry that was legal only six days a week.
"I sell a legal product to people of legal drinking age," Blomgren said. "Give me that opportunity to stay open on Sundays."
Joe Schmidtberger, owner of Alvin's Wine and Spirits, 905 Iowa St., said he didn't think Sunday sales would affect his profits. Schmidtberger said paying
He said every household had a certain amount of money it could spend on alcohol and staying open an extra day would not encourage extra spending.
employees for Sunday work might even cost him money.
"It would just stretch six days of profits to seven," Schmidtberger said.
Blomgren said if opening on Sundays did not prove profitable, he would return to operating six days a week.
Peppes admitted Sunday liquor sales were not critical, but a luxury. He said it was a matter of convenience.
"What if I want to have wine or beer with dinner on Sunday?" Peppes said. "Am I supposed to know at least one day ahead of time what I'll be in the mood for?"

Lawrence ideal town for scooter invasion
By Richard Gintowt
rgintowt@ku.edu
Kansan staff writer
Joseph Pinter has a vision for Lawrence.
"It needs to look like Europe," he said. "Scooters lined down every sidewalk."
Pinter and Michael DeGraw, his business partner, opened Subsonic Scooters, 19 W. Ninth St., because they thought scooters could catch on in Lawrence. The early returns four to five sales a week since opening May 23 seem to indicate they were right.
GO
"It's already exceeded our expectations," Pinter said.
Pinter and DeGraw are betting that Lawrence will be a scooter mecca because the city's roads rarely demand more than 50 mph most scooters' top speed.Add to that a large student population and frequent parking problems downtown, and Subsonic

has the ingredients for a successful business.
"We think scooters are the perfect vehicle for campus," DeGraw said.
All of Subsonic's scooters have engines that are less than 50 cubic centimeters, the size at which a motorbike becomes a motorcycle and a driver is required to buy insurance and pass a drivers' test. Bikes with less than 50-cc engines are allowed on campus.
Pinter's vision of scooter-lined sidewalks won't be fulfilled until one detail is resolved: Scooters are not allowed on Lawrence sidewalks.
DeGraw said he thought people should be allowed to park scooters and mo-peds on Lawrence bike racks. He plans to join the newly formed KU Scooter and Moped Club to petition the city commission to allow this.
Falestine Afani Ruzik, Minneapolis, Kan., senior and scooter club president, said she looked forward to working with Subsonic on the petition.
"I think we'll have a stronger case working together," she said.
Subsonic's opening marks a return to the scooter business for DeGraw, who owned The Metcalf Cyclery in Overland Park from 1977 to 1982 before selling his business and spending the next 29 years as a police officer in Kansas City, Kan.
His timing could not be better. According to the Motorcycle Industry Council, scooter sales in the United States have increased from 12,000 in 1997 to 69,000 in 2002.
The store offers seven scooter brands, which range from $1,300 to $4,000, and Tomos mo-peds, which cost between $1,100 and $1,800.
Scooters will be even more popular if gas prices continue to increase, DeGraw said. Scooters get 80-110 miles to the gallon. Mo-peds, which allow the rider to pedal, can stretch up to 130 miles to the gallon.

Mo-ped, scooter theft can be stopped easily
By Jennifer Wellington
jwellington@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Last March, Alicia Sanson, Phillipsburg junior, decided to make her dream a reality. The KU student purchased a 1983 maroon Trac mo-ped off eBay. Sanson paid $520 for her mo-ped, a fraction of a new mo-ped's retail price.
"I planned on selling it and using that money with the money I make this summer to buy a better one," she said.
But a week after school ended that May, Sanson noticed that her mo-ped was stolen from the bike rack at Hashinger Hall.
"I knew I was returning to the hall during the summer to work," she said. "I thought it would be safe."
Sanson had locked up her mo-ped and covered it with a tarp before she left. The person who stole her mo-ped cut the lock and left only the tarp, she said.
"I loved that bike," Sanson said. "It had pedals and a basket and everything."
Michael DeGraw, co-owner of Subsonic Scooters, 19 W. Ninth St., said most of the stolen mo-peds he knew about were recovered.
"People just used them until they ran out of gas and then left them," he said.
DeGraw advises all of his customers to buy a cable lock to protect their mo-peds because they do not have a security alarm like some scooters. He also recommends that his customers purchase insurance on
their mo-ped or scooter. He said liability insurance for mo-peds was $46 a year, and full coverage, which covers thefts, ran around $90 a year.
While Sanson had a lock for her moped, she didn't have insurance.
"I had just gotten it a few months earlier," she said. "I didn't think I would have to worry about it."
Theft of mo-peds valued over $500 could be considered felony theft, said Sgt. Mike Patrick of the Lawrence Police Department. The police department does not have an official number of how many mo-peds have been stolen in the last year.
Sanson filed a police report but her moped still had not been recovered.
The University's parking department requires that mo-peds be parked at motorcycle or bicycle racks. On campus, mopeds can only be driven on the street. For a mo-ped to get from the street to the bicycle rack, the owner must walk the mo-ped, said Donna Hultine, director of the parking department.
"I would like to get a new one, but I can't afford it right now," she said. "It sucks."
Major Chris Keary, assistant director of public safety, said that police officers could ticket students who drive their mopeds on campus sidewalks. The ticket consists of a $60 fine and a $32 court cost, for a total of $92, he said. Mo-ped permits are $20, Hultine said.

Yeah, uh, I just called the number for the escort service in town here, and I was asking them like, uh, what all's involved, and they kind of beat around the bush a little bit. So I was, like, is you-know-what involved? And they were like, 'Oh, ooh, no, oh no, gosh, oh shucks, oh, golly gosh.'

Well Students,
the Board of Regents
was forced to raise tuition
20.7% this fall...
I know, I'm sorry.
But, again, not to worry! they
also approved a private donation
for your chancellor. Job
Hemen way!! So instead of
just a $3,291 raise, he'll
earn $50,000 more!

111 Staffer-Flint
Deceased soccer player lived good life
In the West-African country of Cameroon, national team soccer players are lovingly referred to as the Indomitable Lions.
COMMENTARY
Under a scorching summer sun in Lyon, France, one of these brave lions proved mortal if still indomitable.
Henry C. Jackson
cjackson@kansan.com
During the second half of a Confederations Cup semifinal, Marc Vivien Foe, a 28-year-old often praised for his conditioning, dropped to his knees at center pitch. For six minutes medical staff huddled around the fallen giant, afraid he had swallowed his tongue. Lapsing in and out of consciousness, Foe was carried off the field, leaving his teammates, opponents and fans in a sort of flux. The game went on. Cameroon won, beating Colombia 1-0 and advancing to the tournaments final against France. But within an hour, Foe would be pronounced dead.
It's hard not to imagine the hurt the team
It is a sad, all-too-common story. The athlete dying young has been lamented in poetry and played out in TV-movies for years. Yet each time, the aftertaste is no less bitter, the reality no more fathomable. You give pause, and then you move on. But there's a lesson here that is not at all about sport. It's about a man and his will to succeed and his friends who would not let it die with him.
On a team of likable characters, Foe was among the most beloved Cameroonian players. He started his career in Cameroon's modest professional leagues. Foe battled his way up, playing in France and, most recently, England, rising from humble beginnings to become a respected professional as much for his kind, disarming manner as he was for his quality playing on the soccer field. Lying motionless on the sidelines at Lyon, though, with pale cheeks and lifeless eyes, you could scarcely see any of this.
Yet in this stark reminder of mortality, you couldn't help but learn a lot about bravery, too.
Cameroon debated not playing the final game. But ultimately the Lions decided that if they did not play it would have been akin to leaving Foe in Lyon. He had
earned a trip to the final, just as they had. And they would take him with them.
France was waiting in the final. The French, too, were rocked by Foe's death, like a body blow delivered by some unseen bully. Jaques Santini, France's manager, himself a rugged, show-no-emotion sort, openly wept when he learned of Foe's death. But there was a match to be played.
It was always going to be a struggle and the match — languid, tense and lacking flair — showed just how raw the nerves still were. Though Cameroon played on bravely, France won, scoring the game's only goal minutes into extra time. In the end, though, humanity proved the victor: France captain Marcell Desailly refused to lift the championship trophy without Rigobert Song, his Cameroonian counterpart, and a best-friend of Foe's.
The rest of this tragic story will play out in the medical examiner's office and police reports, as French officials try to find Foe's cause of death. In the meantime it's worth noting just how indomitable these Lions proved to be. They did not collapse beneath the weight of their fallen teammate rather they carried him on with them.
Jackson is a Long Valley, N.J., junior in journalism. He is interning abroad this summer in Brussels, Belgium.

Econ alum's donation will help University attract and keep leaders
By Kevin Wiggs

Kansan staff writer
Chancellor Robert Hemenway just got a raise, and it won't cost KU students a dime.
The Kansas Board of Regents announced Thursday that a KU alumnus gave $3 million dollars to be divided equally among three Kansas universities.
The gift, made to the Kansas University Endowment Association, the Kansas State
Hemenway
Foundation and the Wichita State Foundation, will be additional compensation for the chancellor or president at each of the three universities.
John Scarffe, KU Endowment Association communications director, said the gift given to the University would produce $50,000 annually that would be paid to Hemenway.
"This will enable the University to attract and retain the best leaders possible in the future." Scarffe said.
The donations were made by Charles Oswald, a KU economics alumnus and Hutchinson native.
He graduated from the University in 1951, after spending two years in the U.S. Marines and before earning his master's degree in business administration from Harvard University.
"I think that these three university leaders are doing great jobs for their institutions right now," Oswald said in a statement released by the Kansas Board of Regents.
"Keeping top leaders is important, and these endowments are meant to assist the state in doing so," he said.
This donation will mark the first endowed funds in Kansas history to increase the salaries of leaders at Regents institutions.
Similar funds are common at universities across the nation, Scarffe said.
When such gifts are endowed, the funds are invested. The profit is paid to the recipient, so the initial donation is never used and will, ideally, last forever, Scarffe said.
Reggie Robinson, Board of Regents president and CEO, thanked Oswald on behalf of the Regents and the universities.
"Charley Oswald demonstrated great foresight and generosity when he identified this need and sought to address it without being asked," he said. "Like funds for professorships, they will assist us greatly in attracting new candidates to these positions in future years."
This donation isn't the first time Oswald has shown gratitude to his alma mater.
In October 2001, Oswald donated $10 million to the University, the largest individual donation in school history.
The money was split three ways $6 million for the economics department,$3 million in unrestricted funds and $1 million for the School of Business.

Teen killed on highway by tractor-trailer truck
OTTAWA—A Kansas City, Mo., teenager was killed yesterday when he was hit by a tractor-trailer truck that drove away from the accident, the Kansas Highway Patrol said.
The 17-year-old victim was changing a flat tire about 2:30 a.m. on Interstate 35 near Ottawa when he was hit by the truck, the Franklin County Sheriff's Department said.
Another person, Trong Tin Kieu Nguyen of Kansas City, Mo., was taken to the Kansas University Medical Center in Kansas City, Kan. His injuries were not life-threatening, a sheriff's report said.
The truck was described as maroon with an orange trailer with the name "Schneider" in black lettering. It was last seen traveling south from the scene of the accident.
"Several Schneider dispatchers are helping us and we have numerous leads," said Mary Beth Anderson, a patrol representative.

Judge authorizes evidence linking Nichols to bombing
OKLAHOMA CITY — Impressions left by a drill bit that allegedly links Terry Nichols to the theft of explosives used in the Oklahoma City bombing can be used at his trial, a state judge ruled Monday.
District Judge Steven Taylor denied a defense motion to exclude the evidence at Nichols' trial, set for March 1. Nichols, already convicted on federal bombing charges and sentenced to life in prison, faces the death penalty if convicted on state murder charges.
Investigators discovered a drill and drill bits while searching Nichols' home in Herrington after he surrendered two days after a 4,000-pound ammonium nitrate and fuel oil bomb ripped through the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building on April 19, 1995.
Former FBI toolmark expert James Cadigan testified a bit found in Nichols' home matched marks made on a drilled-out padlock from a quarry break-in six months before the bombing.

GAY RIGHTS
Court overturns Texas anti-sodomy law
Kansas law voided; ruling evokes feelings of joy and concern
By Annie Bernethy
aberneth@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A Supreme Court ruling Thursday struck down Texas' anti-sodomy law, rendering other state anti-sodomy laws unenforceable. Kansas is one of 13 other states that had anti-sodomy laws.
Kansas and three other states — Oklahoma, Texas and Missouri — had antisodomy laws targeting same-sex couples.
These laws only addressed gays, lesbians, bisexuals and transgendered people, or GLBTG. The 10 other states prohibited sodomy in general, not just same-sex couples.
Attorney General Phill Kline said the Supreme Court decision made Kansas adult sodomy laws unenforceable and unconstitutional.
"We are providing notice to county and
district attorneys and other law enforcement officials of the nature of the Supreme Court decision and its effect on this little used Kansas law," Kline said in the statement.
Sarah Burris, Lawrence Junior and outreach chair for Queers and Allies, said she thought the ruling was a good thing.
"It's a big step in human rights," she said. "I'm optimistic it will help with marriage laws and any other discrimination laws."
Although some look at this as a landmark decision, others find it disheartening. Focus on the Family, a conservative pro-family organization, deemed the decision immoral.
"While it may feel good to some that a stigma is lifted from a particular group, something else has been lifted — the boundaries that prevent sexual chaos in our culture," said Tom Minnery, vice president of public policy for Focus on the Family.
Chris Robinson, graduate from the University of Kansas, has actively researched GLBTG discrimination in Kansas for a year. She said the ruling was
"It's a big step in human rights." Sarah Burris Outreach chair for Queens and Allies
huge for Kansas.
"This has implications beyond the general criminal sodomy statute," she said. "It gives strong grounding to challenge the Romeo and Juliet law."
Kansas' "Romeo and Juliet Law" gives lesbian and gay youths longer prison sentences than heterosexual youths who engage in the same behavior.
Robinson said she thought the sodomy laws had been used to discriminate on a number of bases and were often used as a tool of fear. She wants to publish her research, which looks at how sodomy laws discriminate against Kansans, in a journal.
The Supreme Court decision also brings up other same-sex issues such marriages, parenting and adoption and the basic civil rights for GLBTG's.

BUSINESS
Kansas Union continues rapid expansion
By Richard Gintowt
rgintowt@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
This year, for the first time ever, students could get a haircut, buy a cell phone and schedule their spring break trip in the Kansas Union. Next fall, they'll also be able to buy Birkenstocks.
Footprints, 1339 Massachusetts St., a local footwear retailer, will open a satellite store in the Union this fall. Owner Mick Ranney signed a three-year lease June 20 after Pat Beard, director of Building Services, put out an offer to more than 50 local businesses.
"We had tapped our creativity and kind of threw it open," Beard said. "We're not doing it to make a lot of money as much as to provide a service."
The store, which will be located on the third floor of the Union between Great Clips and T-Mobile, will serve as an outlet shop for Footprints' downtown location. 1339 Massachusetts St.
Footprints' arrival in the Union follows on the heels of three businesses Great Clips, STA Travel and T-Mobile — that
opened shop within the last year. The influx of business reflects a landmark effort from Union directors to offer more services within the Union and increase student traffic.
Students should also have more dining options in the fall. The Union is accepting submissions from local restaurants to take over the Prairie Cafe, located on the third floor, and a coffee and snack bar in the first floor Hawk's Nest.
If past ventures are any indication, the success of these ventures should not be taken for granted.
Upperclassmen may recall the end of Mailboxes Etc.'s two-year tenure in the Union in December 2001. Beard had solicited the business' presence after the Union's 10-year-old postal station closed because of postal service cutbacks.
The gamble did not pay off. Mailboxes Etc. never generated a profit and turned the business over to the Union after six months.
Beard said the Memorial Corporation lost about $30,000 on the venture.

Local committee warns: Federal acts limit rights
By Ehren Meditz
emeditz@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The Lawrence Bill of Rights Defense Committee wants you to help repeal Congressional Acts.
The committee, formed last November, is composed of 12 active members who are concerned about the loss of civil liberties in the post-9/11 climate.
Committee member Clark Coan said University of Kansas students should be concerned about the implications of the USA PATRIOT and Homeland Security Acts, especially if they were politically active.
"The Acts give unprecedented power to spy on law-abiding Americans, including KU students," Coan said. "Over the last seven years, the government has been gaining power at the expense of the Bill of Rights. In a way, it is creeping totalitarianism."
The committee is part of a local and national effort to have the Acts repealed.
At 7:30 p.m. tonight at the Lawrence Public Library, 707 Vermont St., the committee will hold a public hearing to discuss why it believes the Acts are unconstitutional—and dangerous.
Coan said the committee would also have a float in the Lawrence Sesquicentennial parade on Friday, complete with a large copy of the Bill of Rights and members dressed as Thomas Jefferson.
In September, the committee plans to present a resolution to the Lawrence City Commission putting the city on record as opposing the USA PATRIOT and Homeland Security Acts.
Don Haider-Markel, assistant professor of political science and teacher of the Government Response to Extremist Groups course, said recent opinion polls showed the nation was evenly split between those who were concerned about the loss of civil liberties and those who thought these Acts were necessary to combat terrorism.
He said Lawrence would be slightly more concerned about civil liberties than the national average.

STUDENT SERVICES
Recycling services move discuss expansion plans
By Jennifer Wellington
jwellington@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A departmental move has shifted recycling on campus.
Instead of the student staff working for the Department of Environmental Stewardship, it now reports to the University's Facilities Operation department.
The change happened after Victoria Silva resigned from her position as Director of DES in May, said Hank Louisa, associate director of Facilities Operations.
Louisa is now in charge of DES and the 10 students who handle recycling on campus.
Brian Thomas, Wichita junior and recycling technician, has worked for DES for the past year. He said the department change for on-campus recycling was beneficial for the staff.
"Everything seems to get done faster through Facilities Operations," he said.
Louisa said his department and the staff looked into new ways to expand oncampus recycling for the next academic year, but there were no definite plans yet.
Louisa and his staff met with Student Senate and discussed recycling in residence halls.
"We're definitely looking into recycling the cardboard left over from the Ellsworth renovations," he said.
Another staff goal was to work with the city to increase recycling in the fraternity and sorority houses, Louisa said.

Design graduate returns to Kansas for reunion, visit
By Amy Kelly
akelly@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Behind streamlined shades, dimitre's eyes scan the flocks of people strolling in front of the Kansas Union.
"I can't believe I didn't bring my camera with me," said dimitre, who has dropped his last name, Barde. Dimitre earned his graphic design degree in 1990 from the University of Kansas and now goes by his lower-cased first name. "I don't usually wear jewelry, but you could say the camera is my jewelry."
Miles away from his Chicago studio, "The Temple," dimitre still seeks out arresting images while visiting Kansas
briefly for his high school reunion.
"For a while I used to chase things and go after what was on the other side of the fence," dimitre said. "I finally got to the point that I realized everything was right in front of me."
---
dimitre
While at the University, dimitre said he sometimes questioned his talent in the face of professors' criticism.
He entered his photography in a scholarship show his freshman year and walked away empty-handed.
The next year he entered the same works only rematted them. Dimitre took home several awards, which he said was probably because the faculty knew him better.
"That taught me a lot about politics," dimitre said.
Fast-forward to 2003, dimitre has used his knowledge of politics, a persistent work ethic and a passion for photography to not allow setbacks like the first scholarship show to bother him.
Now primarily self-employed at dimitre Photography Inc., his jobs have ranged from a Coors Light layout to an installation at Chicago's Midway Airport.
Dimitre's decision to move to Chicago was not due to just the allure of big-name clients. The student-on-a-budget motive played a large role as well.
"It was $39.95 for a round-trip ticket," dimitre said. "It was an easy way to get up there."
The Windy City's competitive job market proved to be challenging for dimitre, who sought a studio internship. The
Kansas native interviewed with about five companies, none of which wanted an intern.
With only one company left on his list of possible employers, dimitre decided to set aside his artistry briefly for a new tactic salesmanship.
When dimitre approached BW Productions, he opted to describe precisely what the company would receive from his services.
"I told them, ' Look, I'm going to bust my ass and you only have to pay me half of what you're paying everyone else,'" dimitre said.
It was an offer BW Productions couldn't refuse.
Although dimitre had to load film for the majority of the internship, once the company saw his photography skills, they were ready to hire him.
Dimitre said he credited Bruce McIntosh, former KU design professor, with helping him understand the business and marketing aspects of photography.
"I learned a lot about how to make things happen, about how to not be afraid to approach a company and how to find or how to find resources with nothing," dimitre said.
Dimitre usually has steady clients based in Chicago, but the photographer said the bad economy was not producing enough work. This has forced him to put some of his private works on the market.
"I don't ideally want selling my art to become a career," dimitre said. "I think if it turns into a career you start making different kinds of decisions."
The uncertainty that goes along with finding clients has already hit home for some KU photography students.
Jaime Sanders, Overland Park junior, said although she had worked as a freelance wedding photographer since she was 18, she wouldn't want the job as a future career.
"It's just so unstable," Sanders said. "You'll have five jobs at once and then you won't have any for two months."
Even though dimitre said his financial situation was similar to when he was a KU student — living from paycheck to paycheck —he was no longer concerned with dollar signs.
"I know I couldn't not take pictures," dimitre said. "I mean, that's how I breathe."

Continental Cast Stone worker Dennis Miley smooths cement in the rubber mold used to make one-fourth of the medallion for the outside of the Dole Institute. The medallion is 14 feet in diameter and features the Kansas Governor's seal.
DOLE INSTITUTE
Kansas company, graduates complete stone medallion
By Ehren Meditz
emeditz@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
It began in one KU graduate's backyard. Now, it graces the front of the new Dole Institute of Politics.
The stone medallion, 14 feet in diameter and located on the upper-left corner of the Institute, was the product of only six men, who encountered numerous difficulties throughout the six-month production.
"Whenever you're doing a 14-foot medallion, there's nothing simple about it," said Pat Aistrup, who worked with Mike Wallace in sculpting the medallion for the Shawnee-based company Continental Cast Stone. Both men graduated from the University in the early '80s.
The medallion is the Kansas governor's seal. The medallion, along with lettering on the building, was funded by $60,000 worth of private donations. Although the graduates had experience sculpting medallions, the Institute medallion was nearly triple the size of their largest project.
Aistrup and Wallace carved the medallion in wood last winter in an incomplete studio in Aistrup's backyard, which was not equipped with electricity or heat. Aistrup had to heat the studio with propane.
"Consequently, you're either way too hot and your clothes are ready to burn off or your toes are freezing and turning blue," he said.
After Aistrup and Wallace completed the carving, other workers at the company created the rope around the medallion with rubber. High-density Styrofoam was used for the lettering.
But the Institute didn't pay for a medallion made out of wood, rubber and Styrofoam.
The hybrid model is called a "positive," which is used to make a rubber mold. Later, workers pour concrete into the mold to make the final stone product.
Because of the sheer size of the medallion, the positive was cut into four pieces that could be pieced together later.
Carl McMackin, plant manager for the company, said that workers did a total of 12 concrete pours for only four pieces of stone.
In pouring the concrete, tiny air bubbles were trapped under the mixture, warping the ornate designs. Workers then used a machine to vibrate the concrete into all the cracks, but that gave the stone a distorted, blurry look.
"Normally, it should only take a couple of days." McMackin said.
Eventually, McMackin and his workers hashed out a workable plan. They added more water to the concrete before pouring it and used smaller vibrations. McMackin said he expected the project to be tough, but he thought the final price tag was a little low.
"We probably would've bid it higher," McMackin said.

LAW ENFORCEMENT
Police ready for Fourth as DUI laws stiffen up
By Annie Bernethy
aberneth@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
This month marks the beginning of tougher DUI consequences in Kansas, ranging from fines to car impoundment.
A new Kansas law implemented yesterday allows law enforcement to impound the cars of drunken drivers for up to a year on their first offense.
Highway patrolmen will be making sure motorists aren't drinking and driving. The patrolling will cover Independence Day weekend, said Lt. John Eichkorn of Kansas Highway Patrol.
The Kansas Highway Patrol has been enforcing the "You Drink and Drive, You Lose" program since Friday and will continue through July 13.
In Kansas, if a person receives a DUI they will lose more than just their drivers license.
Officers will set up sobriety check points at different locations around Lawrence and across all state highways.
For the first offense a driver could spend 48 hours in jail, serve 100 hours of community service, complete an alcohol abuse class, have their car impounded, pay fines up to $1000 and spend 330 days on probation. All this after 30 days of license suspension for the first offense.
A third DUI conviction is a felony with a mandatory 90 days to one year in prison and fines up to $2,500.
The consequences only get tougher.
"We see a large number of DUIs in the summer," Eichkorn said. "We want people to plan ahead if their plans include alcohol."
All across the state, highway patrolmen will be looking for intoxicated drivers. The safety of everyone is top priority for the Highway Patrol, Eichkorn said.
"We feel it is important that people get the message now," he said. A lot of people celebrate outside during the summer, at lakes, golf courses and other outdoor events, he said.
"A lot of those celebrations include alcohol,"he said.
Memorial Day weekend was proof of what holiday celebrations could result in.
The Kansas Highway Patrol arrested 103 people under the suspicion of drinking and driving in a 78-hour period Eichkorn said.
Eichkorn said the Highway Patrol had always been aggressive in stopping drunken driving, but this was the first year it used the slogan "You Drink and Drive You Lose."
He said he just wanted people to plan ahead and be safe.
"It just doesn't happen to other people," he said. "It could happen to any of us."
Sgt. Mike Pattrick of the Lawrence Police Department said the department always had a large number of officers on duty for July 4, but was not doing anything out of the ordinary.
The Lawrence Police Department will respond to fireworks complaints, Patrick said, but those calls will be a lower priority.

Local fireworks ban
Students, residents hate city's new policy

Kansan staff writer
Igniting fireworks is one way to celebrate Independence Day in Lawrence, but it could cost you $200.
Lawrence prohibits the sale, use, possession and display of fireworks — except by Douglas County-approved professionals — through a ban passed by city commissioners on Oct. 23 last year. Infringements will result in tickets ranging from $100 to $200, said Jerry Little, city prosecutor.
"The Fourth has always been a busy time for the police department. We're not anticipating an increase."
Sgt. Mike Patrick Lawrence Police Department
The legal times to explode fireworks are from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. today and tomorrow, and from 7 a.m. to 12 p.m. on Friday,
but only outside of Lawrence city limits.
Police will be watching for violations of the new ban. Sgt. Mike Patrick of the Lawrence Police Department said he expected the amount of officers working this Independence Day to be the same as the years before the new ban.
"The Fourth has always been a busy time for the police department," Patrick said. "We're not anticipating an increase."
Students and residents have their doubts about the effectiveness of the ban.

"I'm bummed out and kind of pissed," Price said. "I've never seen anything bad come out of fireworks — maybe a little litter."
Price has a long history with fireworks, including an incident where a 2-foot mortar went off inside his apartment. Price said this firework emitted a shower of blue sparks and smoke, but no damage.

Lawrence has an outlet for those patriotic souls who must watch something blow up on Independence Day. The Jaycees — members of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce will shoot off its annual fireworks extravaganza around 9:30 p.m. over the Kansas River.
Novelties are classified by the U.S. Department of Transportation as poppers, snakes, snappers, sparklers, toy smoke devices and toy caps.
Kim Van Becelaere, Pittsburg senior, said she wouldn't go to the Jaycees show and doubted the ban would stop anyone from shooting off their own fireworks. Van Becelaere said the ban was not patriotic.

Lawsuit showers more water on farmers during droughts
TOPEKA (AP) — Officials from Kansas, Nebraska and Colorado agreed on a model to regulate the usage of the Republican River to make more water available to Kansas farmers in dry years.
The model was a final piece of a settlement to a lawsuit filed by Kansas in 1998 after farmers complained they were not getting their fair share of the water.
State officials estimated that in drought years Nebraska used 40,000 acre feet of water more than it should have. That cut the amount of water flow to Kansas by about 16 percent, state officials said.
Kansas Attorney General Phill Kline said yesterday the model was finalized Monday and submitted to a special master, who was appointed by the U.S. Supreme Court to hear the case.
The 1943 Republican River Compact, called for Nebraska to get 49 percent of the river's water, Kansas 40 percent and Colorado 11 percent.
Officials identify substance in post office as cleaning agent
TOPEKA (AP) — The powdery substance that sent six U.S. Postal Service workers to the hospital was identified early Sunday as toluene, a toxic solvent.
The Topeka Fire Department said in a statement toluene often was used as a cleaning agent.
Officials do not believe there was any malicious intent" involved in the incident.
Emergency responders went to a mailsorting center in Topeka around 4:30 p.m. Saturday, after employees called complaining of scratchy throats and burning eyes after a powdery substance fell out of an envelope.
Six people, who worked in the area where the substance was found, were decontaminated and taken to St. Francis Health Center, where they were treated and released, said Kim Gronniger, a hospital spokeswoman.
She said two of the workers transported to the hospital had complained of scratchy throats at the postal facility.
LAWRENCE TORONTO MADRID SEOUL JAKARTA
The powder was tested at the postal facility early Sunday by the Civil Support Team, a unit of the Kansas National Guard.
Inhalation or contact with toluene may irritate or burn skin and eyes, according to the Emergency Response Guidebook.
Businessman pleads guilty; savs co-defendant innocent
KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) — One of two Topeka businessmen charged with federal bank fraud pleaded guilty Monday to two counts of making false bank entries and insisted his co-defendant, the former head of Kansas' largest utility, had nothing to do with the crimes.
Attorney Clinton Odell Weidner II entered his plea before jury selection began in his trial and that of David Wittig, former chief executive of Westar Energy.
The crimes were not related to Westar business.
Weidner still faces one count of conspiracy and one count of money laundering. Wittig faces four counts of making false bank entries, reports and transactions. Another count would require Wittig and Weidner to forfeit $1.5 million to the federal government to offset a loan that was the center of the case.
Pedro Irigonegaray, Weidner's attorney, also said that Weidner's plea should not be held against Wittig.
Robinson set a sentencing date of Sept. 29 in Topeka.
BAXTER SPRINGS (AP) — A judge has dismissed charges filed against a newspaper advertising director accused of stealing promotional inserts from a competing weekly newspaper.
Judge dismisses charges of theft against ad manager
After the prosecution rested its case Friday, Judge Frederick Smith issued a directed verdict in favor of Mary Broyles of the Baxter Springs News. She faced a charge of theft by deception.
Smith, a Pittsburg city judge appointed to hear the case, said the city had failed to meet its burden in identifying the victim.
Michael Goodrich, Broyles' attorney
requested the directed verdict.
"This is the most gigantic cluster over nothing that I've ever seen in my life," Goodrich said.
Larry Hiatt, publisher of the Baxter Springs News, said the case was an example of the city's harassment of him and his paper because of its coverage of controversial stories.
Kansas farmers producing more genetically engineered crops
WICHITA(AP]—More Kansas farmers were growing genetically engineered crops, the Department of Agriculture said Monday.
In its latest acreage and grain stocks report, USDA reported that Kansas planted 87 percent of its soybean acreage to Roundup Ready soybeans, genetically designed to resist Monsanto's Roundup weed-killer. That is up 4 percentage points from last year.
Farmers around the country planted slightly more genetically engineered corn, including the insect resistant Bt and Roundup Ready varieties. Total biotech corn acreage nationwide is up 6 percentage points to 40 percent this year.
In Kansas, the use of biotech corn was up 4 percentage points at 47 percent this year.
"In Kansas, we have a lot of issues especially with the earworm and, as far as the Roundup Ready variety, we have quite a few weed issues," said Sue Schulte, spokeswoman for the Kansas Corn Growers Association and the Kansas Grain Sorghum Producers Association.

Monkeypox infects 30 people; exotic animals carried disease
ATLANTA (AP] — Nearly 30 people have been confirmed to be infected with the monkeypox virus, federal officials
said Thursday.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said lab testing indicated 29 of the country's 79 suspected cases had the virus, which is a cousin of smallpox.
Monkeypox is a west African disease never before seen in the Western Hemisphere. As of June 25, there were 14 confirmed cases in Wisconsin, seven in Indiana and six in Illinois. One case each was confirmed in Kansas and Missouri.
The virus caused rashes, chills and fever, and more than half of the cases were hospitalized. Most (69 percent) involved adults; the median age was 28.
Most cases were exposed to wild or exotic mammals that included prairie dogs. Some had at-home contact with others infected.The CDC said no cases solely involving person-to-person transmission were confirmed.
Two children and 24 adults received smallpox vaccine, which is considered 85 percent effective against monkeypox.
West Nile virus strikes again; 18-year-old horse euthanized
PINEVILLE, Mo. (AP) — A horse from southwest Missouri's McDonald County was determined to have contracted the West Nile virus, a county health official said.
Officials with the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services said it was the first equine case confirmed in the state this year. A year ago, 662 Missouri horses became ill with the mosquitoborne virus.
Neoma Schlessman, a nurse with the McDonald County Health Department, said a veterinarian from outside the county called her last week with word that the virus had been found in an 18 year-old horse.
Schlessman said privacy rules prohibited her from identifying the owner, but said the case was from the southeastern part of the county. She said the horse was killed.
Informant says roommate killed Baylor basketball player
WACO, Texas (AP) — An unidentified informant said the roommate told a cousin he shot Patrick Dennehy, missing Baylor University basketball player, in the head as the two argued, said court documents.
Authorities said yesterday there were no arrests and they have no single suspect.
A search warrant affidavit made public Monday said the informant told investigators in Delaware that Carlton Dotson, a former teammate of Dennehy's as well as his roommate, killed Dennehy with a 9 mm handgun.

Kansas doctors seek delay on teen pregnancy reporting
The Associated Press
LAWRENCE — A group representing some Kansas doctors has asked Attorney General Phill Kline to delay enforcement of his recent legal opinion requiring them to report pregnancies of girls under age 16.
"Essentially, we asked that he consider not doing anything to enforce the opinion until after the Legislature has had a chance to meet and clarify the issues that have been raised," said Jerry Slaughter, executive director for the Kansas Medical Society.
Kline's opinion, issued June 18, said that doctors treating pregnant girls under 16 must report their pregnancies as evidence of suspected child abuse because sex with girls under 16 is illegal in Kansas.
Kline said Monday he would not respond to the medical society's request.
"They are free to lobby the Legislature. The Legislature can change the law, and the governor can propose a change in the law," Kline said. "But I can't change the law; that's not my job. All I can do, in this instance, is interpret the law, and that's what I've done."
But the attorney general said he had
no plans to "prosecute consensual acts between children" and doubted that many county attorneys would prosecute doctors, nurses, teachers, social workers, counselors for not following his opinion.
"That's not what this is about," Kline said. "This is about going after predators."
Sen. John Vratil (R-Leawood) said he doubted Kline's opinion would generate much debate in next year's legislative session.
"The Legislature tends not to be inclined to take action on an issue that's not developed," said Vratil, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. "And for this to develop into an issue, there would have to be a county attorney or a district attorney prosecute someone for failing to report. I don't think that's likely to occur."
Slaughter said doctors are afraid teenage girls will be reluctant to seek prenatal care or treatment for sexually transmitted diseases if they know their doctors are required to report them to authorities.
"We're concerned about the healthcare consequences of the opinion," Slaughter said. "For us, this isn't about abortion. We don't have anything to do with that. Our concern is health care."

Dennehy's family reported the 6-foot-10,230-pound junior missing June 19. His sport utility vehicle was found last week in a mall parking lot in Virginia Beach, Va. According to the warrant, filed June 23 in 19th District Court in McLennan County, the informant said Dotson told the cousin that while he and Dennehy were shooting guns, they argued and Dennehy pointed a weapon at Dotson as if to shoot him, but Dotson instead shot Dennehy.
Dotson said he then drove home to Maryland and got rid of the guns along the way, the document said.
Salmonella cases increasing source of illness unknown
ST. LOUIS (AP) — At least 99 people contracted salmonella at St. Louis Children's Hospital. The source of the intestinal illness remains a mystery.
The number of cases could rise because several people were still being tested, a hospital spokeswoman said Monday. The most recent case of the bacterial infection was confirmed Friday.
The cafeteria at the hospital was closed June 6 after city health officials learned that three hospital employees were sick.
The hospital took samples from more than 400 people who visited the hospital or ate in the cafeteria since May 1. The cafeteria reopened June 15 after two days of cleaning.
Salmonella can be found on several kinds of food, but especially on raw meat, eggs, dairy products and seafood. It is blamed for 1,000 deaths every year in about 40,000 cases nationally. The illness causes diarrhea, fever and abdominal cramps.

Investigators tracked the suspects, the children's parents, through the woman's credit card and found the 3-year-old girl and 2-year-old boy asleep and unharmed in a hotel room Monday.
Nora Sarria, the children's grandmother, was asleep early Monday in her suburban home south of Fort Lauderdale when she heard a loud crash at her back door. Police said her daughter and her daughter's ex-husband, who do not have custody of the children, drove a car through the sliding glass door and rushed into the house.
Nora Montano,32, was charged with kidnapping and robbery home invasion, said Bill Robertson, Miramar police officer. The father was booked on the same charges.
More than 450 miles away, police found the toddlers at a motel in a remote Florida Panhandle.

SARS raises death toll kills heath care worker
TORONTO (AP) — A nurse at North York General Hospital became Ontario's first health care worker to die of SARS, raising the death toll from the flu-like illness in Toronto to 39.
Several more health care workers are in critical condition on ventilators, and some of them also could succumb health officials said Monday.
North York General Hospital was the epicenter of Toronto's second SARS outbreak, which festered for weeks unnoticed before health officials discovered it on May 23.
The nurse's death Sunday was announced in a brief statement by Ontario Health Minister Tony Clement that lacked details such as when infection occurred.
Toronto had the largest SARS outbreak outside of Asia, with 39 deaths and almost 250 cases. More than 27,000 people in and around Toronto were forced into quarantine during the two outbreaks, one in March and April and the second in May and June.
Indonesian police may deport photographer from Japan
JAKARTA, Indonesia (AP] — Indonesian police may deport a Japanese photographer detained in war-torn Aceh province, but have no plans to release an American reporter linked to separatist rebels, said media reports Saturday.
Lt. Col. Sayed Husaini told the el-Shinta radio station that officers were meeting
with immigration officials for the possible deportation of Tadatomo Takagi, 25.
Takagi was arrested Thursday as he photographed refugees in north Aceh.
Takagi, who was in Aceh on a tourist visa, took photos for his university thesis and was not a journalist, an immigration official also told el-Shinta.
On Tuesday, police arrested American William Nessen.
Husaini said officers questioned Nessen, 46, over "his closeness to the Free Aceh Movement" and do not plan to release him. Nessen, who was traveling on a journalist visa, was charged with immigration offenses.
North Korea threatens to leave 1953 armistice if blockaded
SEOUL, South Korea (AP)—North Korea threatened on yesterday to abandon the 1953 armistice that ended the Korean War, and warned that it will take "merciless retaliatory measures" in response to any economic blockade.
U. S. efforts to pressure the communist state to abandon its suspected nuclear weapons program have pushed Korea to "the crossroads of war or peace," said the North Korean military's representative at Panmunjom, a truce village where the U.N. Command and the North's military meet to oversee the armistice.
His statement was carried by the North's state-run KCNA news agency. KCNA did not give his name.
North Korea has often threatened to scrap the armistice, the key legal document that keeps an uneasy peace on the divided Korean Peninsula.
The 1950-53 Korean War ended with an armistice, not with a peace treaty.
Mice with transplanted wombs produce healthy young mice
MADRID, Spain (AP) — Swedish scientists have produced healthy offspring from mice with transplanted wombs—an experiment that raises hopes of successful uterus transplants for women.
Experts said the results, presented yesterday at a European fertility conference, were encouraging but major obstacles must be overcome before women can benefit.
Last year, Saudi scientists reported the first human womb transplant, which produced two menstrual periods before it failed and had to be removed.
Experiments led by Mats Brannstrom of Sahlgrenska University in Gothenburg, Sweden, involved genetically identical mice so there would be no problem of immune system rejection.

Resident assistants receive pay increase
By Annie Bernethy
aberneth@kansan.com
kansan staff writer
Discussions between the Department of Student Housing and the RA-Proctor Council has led to the pay raise of resident assistants this fall.
Jennifer Wamelink, assistant director of the Department of Student Housing, said the RA-Proctor Council asked the department last semester to take a look at the salaries of staff members to see if a raise was needed.
RAs typically made $40 bimonthly, plus free room and board. With the new contracts, staff members who have been resident assistants for a year will make an additional $20 a month.
Scott Wilson, a resident assistant at Lewis Hall, said he was happy about the new agreement.
Wilson said he became an RA because he had a lot to offer students and thought it would be interesting to form a community on the floor.
"I feel as though the RAs do a lot and should be rewarded for that," said the Garden City senior.
"I really enjoy that I'm basically getting free room and board to socialize with people, something I would be doing anyway," he said.
Carrie Clopton, Overland Park junior and resident assistant, said she was looking forward to the pay increase.
"Who's going to turn down more money?" she said.
However, because Clopton became an RA last spring, she must wait until spring 2004 for her pay increase.
She decided to become an RA after living in Lewis Hall her freshman year, Clopton said. She is now an RA in the same residence hall.
"I wanted to be part of the complex," she said. "I really liked the idea of working with the staff and the students."
Clopton became an RA because she wanted to meet other people and plan events. After one semester as an RA in Lewis Hall, Clopton said she enjoyed her time.
"I want to be someone people can come talk to if they have problems," she said.
Members of the RA-Proctor Council could not be reached for comment.

Aramis Watson, Wichita senior, and Cory Xenos, Louisburg sophomore, stare intently at the television screen after the Chicago Bulls selected Kirk Hinrich as the seventh overall pick during the first round of the NBA Draft.

Jayhawks earn high picks
Hinrich, Collison picked by professional teams as fans, residents react

Captain RibMan's Meat Market erupted with cheers as if Kirk Hinrich had just nailed a game-winning jumper. But this was no game.
These were cheers of triumph, congratulations and Jayhawk pride when the Chicago Bulls made Hinrich the seventh overall pick in the 2003 NBA Draft Thursday night.
There was another round of applause when Nick Collison was drafted 12th overall by the Seattle SuperSonics.
Rich Davis, owner of Meat Market, 811
New Hampshire St. said his bar was packed with Jayhawk fans who were excited to see how high Hinrich and Collison would go.
"They went nuts when Hinrich was selected," Davis said.
Mock drafts from nbadraft.net, espn.com and cnnsi.com incorrectly predicted former Texas guard T. J. Ford would be selected before Hinrich.
Jayhawk fans were not surprised when the Bulls made Kirk Hinrich the first point guard drafted.

"I knew Kirk would go higher because
T. J. Ford sucks," said Lauren Lynn, Coffeyville senior, as she sat with her friends at Buffalo Wild Wings, 1012 Massachusetts St. "T. J. Ford is too weak, too small and has no shot."
As the seventh pick Hinrich will earn up to $1.8 million in his first season, according to the NBA scale salary structure.
Tina Daniels, Lawrence resident, said Hinrich was selected by the Bulls because they needed a solid point guard and Hinrich was more dependable than Ford.
The Bulls' starting point guard, Jay Williams, was injured in a motorcycle accident last month. The Associated Press reported Williams will not play next season and that his injuries could end his basketball career.

'Believe' it: Royals fever infects fans, restaurants

If you always dress in blue,you might have Royals fever. If you dream about the Royals winning the final game of the World Series, you have Royals fever.
The fever has spread because the Royals, 43-38 after last night's victory over the Cleveland Indians, are competing for first place in the American League Central for the first time in more than a decade.
"I have been so disappointed with them for so long, it is exciting see them now doing well," said April Giarla, Overland Park junior.

Last Thursday Davis had to split his bar between Royals loyalists and people rooting for former Jayhawks in the NBA draft. The excitement over the Royals does not match the fervor for the KU men's basketball team, but it is close.

Former Jayhawk sees himself meshing with young Bulls team
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — Kirk Hinrich won't be expected to carry the Chicago Bulls as a rookie, just their bags.
Hinrich was drafted with the seventh pick overall by the Bulls, who see him as an unselfish and skilled role player who can feed the ball to promising big-men Tyson Chandler and Eddy Curry.
As a rookie, he also can expect to deliver their bags to them.
"I'll do it. They've been here," a grinning Hinrich said of the razzing he'll face as an NBA rookie. "They've put in their time. I respect them, even though I'm probably older than they are."
He is, by nearly two years. That's one of the things Bulls general manager John Paxson liked about the 22-year-old Hinrich.
The Bulls have one of the youngest line-ups in the league with the preps-to-pros duo of Curry and Chandler and third-year guard Jamal Crawford, who played just one year at Michigan.
"When I took the job back in April, I told all of you I'm looking for people who will play the game the right way. Play unselfishly, work hard," Paxson said on Tuesday after Hinrich arrived in Chicago. "Kirk is that type of guy."
A 6-foot-3,190-pound guard from Sioux City, Iowa,Hinrich played all four years at Kansas and led the Jayhawks to two Final Fours,losing in the title game this past season.
He was a third-team All-American and
first-team All-Big 12 selection as a senior and averaged 17.3 points.
He also was the team's toughest defender and their sharpest outside shooter, averaging 43 percent from three-point range over his career.
"Isee myself fitting in really well. I know it's a really young team, on the way up," Hinrich said. "The number one thing is I'm going to come in here and earn the respect of my teammates."
Hinrich is stepping into a delicate situation in Chicago.
The Bulls took Hinrich only after guard Jay Williams slammed his new motorcycle into a pole on June 19, a week before the draft.
The former college player remains hospitalized with a fractured leg, pelvis and torn knee ligaments. The team hasn't commented about the extent of his injuries, nor have the doctors or the Williams family. Sources close to Williams have said the injuries are severe enough to jeopardize his career.
Hinrich said when he's able, he'd like to visit Williams in the hospital. The two played against each in college, and were in the same high school recruiting class.
"That something I've been thinking about. It's very unfortunate." Hinrich said. "I know Jay, I consider him a friend."
Hinrich joins a Bulls team that finished 30-52,an improvement over previous seasons. Chicago has missed the playoffs five straight years, though things could finally be turning around for the franchise that dominated the NBA in the 1990s.

Williams sisters move on after each dropping a set
WIMBLEDON, England (AP) Nothing came easily for the defending champion Serena or her sister Venus Williams in the quarterfinals yesterday. Serena lost the opening set against Capriati, and Venus also dropped a set for the first time this fortnight, against Lindsay Davenport.
But by straightening out their strokes and using the game's top serves, the sisters won and moved within one victory each of a sixth all-Williams Grand Slam final.
On the other hand, Justine Henin-Hardenne and Kim Clijsters are within one victory each of a second straight all-Belgian Grand Slam final.
"I've been in this position so many times," Serena said, "I have no nerves."

Miami chooses long-term profits over five-year deal
CORAL GABLES, Fla. (AP) — Money played a large role in Miami's decision to leave the Big East and join the Atlantic Coast Conference.
Miami officials relied less on the amounts of the offers from the two conferences and more on the ways the leagues distributed profits to all sports.
Shalala and athletic director Paul Dee would have kept the Hurricanes in the Big East.
If guaranteed money over the next five years was the most important factor, then university president Donna
"Frankly, the Big East made us a better financial offer," Shalala said after the announcement Monday. "It was a sense of the future. They're fundamentally different in the way in which they distribute money."
So, Miami went to the ACC largely because that conference paid all its members the same amount.
In the 2001-02 academic year, ACC members received $9.7 million each, the highest disbursement in that conference's history.
Miami earned a reported $9.3 million that year and made less than every other ACC school.

Hammonds signs contract with San Francisco Giants
ST.LOUIS (AP) — Outfielder Jeffrey Hammonds, released last month by the Milwaukee Brewers, signed a minor-league contract yesterday with the San Francisco Giants.
Hammonds batted. 158 with one home run and three RBIs with the Brewers before going on the 15-day disabled list with a high ankle sprain He was released June 4.
Hammonds will work his way into playing shape in the Arizona League, then go to Triple-A Fresno, the Giants announced here before the start of the second game of their four-game series against the Cardinals.
Hammonds was in the final season of a three-year, $21.75 million deal.

to $1.3 million dollars in his first season,
and then up to $1.4 million and $1.5
million for his second and third seasons.
"Are you serious? You have Duncan, Webber, Garnett and Shaq," Bouwie said. "He is going to get killed."
Norman Bouwie, Wichita graduate said he didn't think Collison would perform well in the Western Conference.
Norman Roberts, Kansas assistant men's basketball coach, said that might not be the case. The only one of those players Collison will guard is Sacramento forward Chris Webber, Roberts said.
Collison will not have it easy because the West has the biggest men in the league,
but Collision should pull through, he said.
Besides, Robert said, the West was no where close to the high physical play of the Eastern Conference.
The last time two players from Kansas were drafted in the first round was in 1998, when the Denver Nuggets made Raef LaFrentz the third pick and the Boston Celtics selected Paul Pierce 10th overall.
"To say Collison is going to get killed is silly," Roberts said. "Nick will hold his own. He will adjust his game and with his work ethic, he will do well."

FEVER: Powder blue back in fashion CONTINUED FROM PAGE 19
"The other night we had a friendly fight over the televisions," Davis said, "Some wanted to watch the draft; others wanted to watch the Royals."
With the majority of KU students out of town, Royals fever has been a blessing, said James Neumann, Buffalo Wild Wings manager.
Neumann said he has noticed an increase in business and powder-blue, vintage Royals uniforms around his bar.
"People seem to be getting them out of their closet and sporting them around," Neumann said. "I have not seen those uniforms in years. It is crazy."
Ali Littlefield, bartender at Louise's Downtown, 1009 Massachusetts St.
said he thought the Royals would go the playoffs and possibly the world series. If that happens, Littlefield said, then the Royals fever will become an epidemic.
"Right now people are loving it," Littlefield said. "Whenever the Royals play, it gets a little rowdy in here. People are hollering and jumping around."
Ian Carrillo, Joplin, Mo., senior, said he adhered to this year's unofficial Royals slogan. "We believe."
"Yes, I believe," Carrillo said. "I believe they can win, and I believe they can go all the way."

Melissa Jones and Chris Crawford, Overland Park juniors, taste wine and cheese at Pachamama's, 2161 Quail Creek Drive. The two were in attendance Friday night at the restaurant's weekly wine and cheese tasting party.
Students enjoying more wine despite illusion of high prices
DINING
By Amy Kelly akelly@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Swirl. Sniff. Swish. Swallow.
Wine enthusiasts' methods of enjoying a bottle of Chardonnay or Merlot can often take on a relatively uniform appearance right down to the last tilts of their glasses.
The faces of those drinkers are changing, however.
Scarborough Research, a consumer market research company, reported in March that 25 percent of American wine purchasers are 21 to 24 years old.
Local businesses are beginning to reflect those national statistics, but not all students' pocketbooks are ready for the wine to flow.
Pachamama's New World Cuisine, 2161 Quail Creek Drive, has held wine tastings from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.every Friday for the past two years, attracting everyone from college students to senior citizens.
Chris Crawford and Melissa Jones, Overland Park juniors, attended Pachamama's wine tasting Friday, but said they were still far from being connoisseurs.
"When it comes down to it, I still would probably buy beer before wine," Crawford said.
"But what you'll find a lot of younger people buying is Yellowtail because it's pretty good wine and it's really cheap," he said, referencing the popular Australian wine.
The assumption that high prices go hand-in-hand with an evening of wine and dinner is something Ken Baker, chef and proprietor of Pachamama's, is trying to dispel.
Baker said some young adults told him they would like to eat at Pachamama's, but their budgets couldn't foot the bill.
"I tell the people who tell me they can't afford it, 'Well, all you have to do is not go to Harbour Lights and buy beer two nights in a row and you can absolutely afford it," Baker said.
Each wine tasting at Pachamama's ranges from $15 to $20, a price that includes appetizers and four or five wine selections.
Dan Blomgren, owner of Cork & Barrel, 23rd and Iowa streets, said the downfall for students interested in experimenting with wine tasting was the lack of disposable income.
"If you have six bucks in your pocket and you're choice is between a bottle of Chardonnay or a 12-pack of Natty Light, you're going to go with the Natty Light," Blomgren said. "It just comes down to economics."
Tammy Rundstrom, Cork & Barrel sales associate and KU graduate, said although wine sales had increased, most college students still bought beer.
"Wine is such an acquired taste, so it might take awhile for students to get used to it," Rundstrom said.

Diva of Destiny releases solo album, tries acting
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — With millions of album sales, Grammys, more than a half-dozen hit singles, a blockbuster movie and A-list endorsements, it's hard to imagine how Beyonce Knowles' star could get much brighter.
"It's getting worse," says Knowles in her husky, Southern-accented voice.
Yet with the release of Dangerously in Love — Knowles' first solo disc apart from the megagroup Destiny's Child — the 21-year-old is moving into a celebrity stratosphere so luminous even she's a bit nervous about it.
"It takes getting used to, everywhere you go somewhere, you have to sign autographs or look a certain way to get pictures."
She'll have to make the adjustment given the early success enveloping the project.
She's got a Top 10 hit on the Billboard charts with the album's first single, "Crazy
in Love," and the album, on Columbia Records, is on pace to debut on the top of the album charts next week.
She's also starring with Cuba Gooding Jr. in The Fighting Temptations, due out in September.
She's even becoming a one-named wonder: she simply uses the name Beyonce (pronounced BEE-yon-SAY) on the new album.
Knowles' stardom has long eclipsed that of her two groupmates, Michelle Williams and Kelly Rowland.
Still, she insists that her solo career is just a brief diversion in the juggernaut that has become Destiny's Child, one of the most successful girl groups of all time.
"I'm going to do another Destiny's Child album, regardless if I sell no-million, one million, five million or however million," she says. "The only way I won't do it unless Destiny's Child is no longer friends — no other reason, but because I love them and I love being in the group."

Web services give variety of attractions, fun
GEEK SPEAK
The buzzword on the Internet today is Web services. Web moguls have come to realize that they must offer a value or feature in order to attract and retain their audience. An example of this is online banking, which offers additional access and services for banking customers.
Staci Wolfe and Tim Sears geekspeak@kansan.com
Tim's favorites:
1) Yahoo.com
The king of Web services, Yahoo! offers so many services on its Web site it can be difficult to pick from all of them. I could stay on Yahoo! all day without having to visit another site. For those of you that don't know, Yahoo! is much more than a search engine. It can provide customized content with sports results, stock quotes and weather updates on a personalized My Yahoo! page. It also provides a gamut of additional Web services ranging from bill pay to instant messaging
2)Baseball-links.com
I am a baseball nut and I'm always looking for Web sites that feature something about baseball. I can usually find exactly what I am looking for if I start at one of the best baseball portals (in my
opinion) on the Internet - Skilton's. Skilton's categorizes baseball Web site links in a comprehensive list that's easy to use. Categories range from umpiring minor leagues, baseball cards and collectibles to analyzing statistics. The site even has a section featuring audio broadcasts, which allows you to listen to some classic baseball moments.
3) CartoonNetwork.com
Another Web site that is appealing to both college students and teenagers is cartoonnetwork.com. It's no secret that one of the biggest appeals of computers has been the ability to play video games. Cartoon Network has used the appeal to its advantage and found a great way to market its cable program while at the same
time, offers Web users a chance to play challenging video games ranging from Scooby Doo to Power Puff Girls and Yugi-oh!
Staci'spicks
Although Tim chose to write about some of his current favorite Web sites, I decided to take a different approach. Instead, I am pining over my favorite Web sites that are no longer. HomeGrocer.com.
Talk about an online revolution. I loved being able to peruse recipes online, fill my fictional shopping cart with the necessary ingredients,and have the groceries delivered straight to my door. How cool is that? Of course,I realize now that grocery shopping at the local supermarket is a necessary evil,but it was still fun to pretend for a little while that I was just too busy to grocery shop for myself.
A dream come true for those of us who occasionally like to come home on Friday night, throw on our PJs and curl up on the couch in front of the TV. Once upon a time, you could order a movie or two online, and in less than an hour or
Kozmo.com
so, have it delivered to your front door, along with a pint of Ben & Jerry's Chunky Monkey or even some dental floss.
I can't imagine my life without the Web. Heck, I can barely remember how I balanced my checkbook before there was a Web. How did I find local movie times? How in the world did I make travel reservations?
I know what you're thinking: I spend way too much time on the 'Net'. Not to worry, I'm going to surf over to citysearch.com right now and find something to do outside this weekend. Then I'm going to send an e-mail out to all my friends to round them up. See, I can be social!

HOROSCOPES
If your birthday is this week ...
Aries (March 21-April 20).
Taurus (April 21-May 20)
Ask loved ones for meaningful commitments or reliable deadlines before Aug. 22. Over the next few weeks, key relationships will require serious discussion, revised schedules or renewed promises. Flirtation, new attraction and intriguing social relationships are also underlying themes. Over the summer months, expect fast group invitations or uniquely creative proposals.
Moody discussions with loved ones bring valuable insights. Over the next six days, friends and lovers will reveal their feelings. Listen carefully to your inner voice and avoid quick decisions. Before mid-July, minor doubts, nagging intuitions and sudden flashes of wisdom will prove meaningful. Thursday through Sunday, financial planning is difficult. Close relatives may expect a full disclosure of budgets, debts or payment schedules. Stay focused on small details.
Dreams, intuitions and romantic passion will be difficult to ignore this week. Recent business strain or time limitations will be replaced by a fresh appreciation of love, friendship and family. Early today, however, facts, figures and records are temporarily unreliable. Carefully clarify vital documents or legal papers.
Gemini (May 21-June 21).
Expect a sharp rise in gossip, workplace speculation or group information this week. After Monday, social activity and flirtation are on the rise. Some Geminis may also experience an unexpected romantic proposal from a friend or old lover. Take all attention as a compliment but wait for serious indications of affection.
Cancer (June 22-July 22).
Business and romantic partnerships will intensify. Over the next four days, co-workers and long-term friends ask for reliable answers and serious time commitments. A workplace project that was once simple turns complicated. Pace yourself and remain dedicated to established rules and procedures. After tomorrow, passion is on the rise. Minor emotional triangles may still be problematic.
Unexpected social information and quick romanticchanges are highlighted over the next few days. Before midweek, listen carefully to friends and lovers for subtle emotional reversals.Many Leos will experience an important shift of loyalty between friends.Expect others to no longer remain silent, avoid serious discussions or withdraw from group events.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22).
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
This week, public displays of affections may be easily misinterpreted. Over the next four days,
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
Recent breakthroughs in love relationships inspire meaningful growth. Key issues involve time commitments, family management or shared activities. This week, many Librans will improve their romantic confidence and explore new methods of communication. Remain cautious, however, and expect change to be steady but slow.
expect friends and co-workers to be unpredictable and mildly judgmental. Social exchanges are complex. Private moments or shared information between friends may strongly influence public sentiments. Remain cautious and let others express their ongoing concerns.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22).
Your wisdom and intuition will be proven accurate this week. Business competitions or conflicts between colleagues are revealed to be precisely as previously envisioned. Areas of concern are career strategies or ethical methods of advancement. After today, some Scorpios may also encounter surprising social information.
Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 20).
Financial restrictions and workplace politics are important topics of conversation this week. Expect colleagues and business officials to offer vague responses, sudden reversals and inconclusive facts. Base key decisions only on reliable figures.
Capricorn (Dec. 21-Jan. 20).
Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20).
Over the next five days, revised employment methods will bring quick results. Before Friday, previously confident colleagues may ask for guidance and support. Present superficial ideas and let others develop their own strategy. At the moment, work mates will not easily follow complex instructions. Promotions, fresh assignments and team deadlines will soon be established.
Recent business disagreements or stalled workplace communications will fade. Early this week, expect relations with co-workers to slowly improve. Avoid emotional discussions or public sentimentality, however; this is not a good time to leave yourself vulnerable to private criticism. Take time to carefully consider all options. New priorities will soon emerge.
Romantic partners or new colleagues are emotionally unpredictable this week. Expect sudden reversals and surprising outbursts over the next eight days. All of this looks positive, however, so not to worry. By early next week, previously distant lovers or distrustful business partners will express newfound enthusiasm. After Friday, rest and contemplate intimacy and trust in long-term relationships. Someone close may need extra reassurance. Respond quickly to all proposals.
Aquarius (Jan. 21-Feb. 19).

Lawrence car break-ins increasing
Photo illustration by Zach Straus/Kansan
The frequency of car break-ins has increased slightly over the past three years. After a small dip in 2001,the number of automobile break-ins jumped to a reported 1000 in 2002.

.
When Brian Eiswirth left his house on a Monday morning last year, his main concern was sitting through yet another hour-long lecture class. But he spotted something unusual when he glanced at his car. His trunk was open. The Chesterfield, Mo., junior went to investigate and discovered he was a victim of a car breakin.
CAUSES
Sgt. Mike Pattrick said there was more than one theory about the increase of reported break-ins. The main reason was an increase in Lawrence population, he said.
According to the Lawrence Police Department this has been an increasing trend. In the last three years the number of reported thefts from vehicles has gone from 871 in 2000 to 1,000 last year.
Lawrence's population was 77,488 in 1998 and rose to 80,098 in 2000. Numbers for 2001 and 2002 are not yet available.
Although the population increased, the Lawrence Police staff has not gained as many new members to deal the growth.
In 1999 there were 123 police officers. The police force has grown by 2 officers despite a more than $3 million increase in the department's budget.
The department recently added a new type of radio to police cars and bought new laptop computers.
Patrick said the budget increased because of an increase in pay for police officers and an increase in technology.
While break-ins are increasing, other crimes are still a higher priority. Pattrick said the department did not educate the public and had not planned to.
Officers are more concerned with "person" crimes, such as assault or rape, rather than crimes done to material belongings.
Total crimes in Lawrence have gone down over the past three years, according to the department's Web site. Lawrence had 2,548 reported crimes through March. At that rate there will be less than 11,000 crimes in 2003, the lowest number in three years.
"We're interested in all crimes," he said. But this is a 'non-person' crime and most of our effort and resources are spent on person' crimes."
Pattrick said the police occasionally
implemented a burglary task force, but only when a string of crimes might be related.
PREVENTION
Ralph Oliver, University of Kansas Public Safety Office spokesperson, said thieves looked for stereo systems and CD collections.
Most car burglaries are unrelated and done at night under the cover of darkness, he said.
He said break-ins were highest at the beginning of semesters when the KU student population increases, and before Christmas, when cars are packed with goodies and thieves can be desperate for money.
As car break-in numbers climb, so do sales of car alarm systems.
Pattrick said break-ins did not occur in one area of town. Rather, thieves look for areas that are dimly lit with multiple cars, where spotting a break-in is more difficult.
Clint Offutt, assistant manager of Pro Sound, 500 E. 23rd St., said sales of car alarms had doubled since he started installing alarms three years ago.
"They've increased dramatically," he

said. "People want to protect their investment and are more aware that break-ins are common."
Offutt said alarms started around $150
and could cost up to $1500,depending on extra features the buyer wanted.
"The most basic alarms do the same as the higher-end alarms," he said. "They are added more for convenience than effectiveness."
Extra features include flashing lights, a back-up battery in case the thief cuts the battery to disable the alarm, and internal sirens that make a noise so loud inside the car that it could deafen an intruder.
But Offutt warns that if thieves want what is in a car, there isn't much one can do to stop them.
"If he wants it,he'll get it," Offutt said.
"There's no way of stopping it," he said. "We do the best we can, but until you can find a root cause it will continue."
Pattrick also acknowledged the difficulty in preventing break-ins.
The best thing one can do to protect their car is to park in a well-lit area, keep valuables out of sight and lock the doors. Many thieves simply go from car to car seeing if the doors are unlocked, Pattrick said.

Oread house could live on
Association fights to give house new home
By Ehren Meditz
emeditz@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
As its neighborhood vanishes, one house in the 1300 block of Ohio Street could emerge from the destruction brought on by the University of Kansas expansion as the third student cooperative house in Lawrence.
Greg Seibel, executive director of the University of Kansas Student Housing Association, said the house at 1309 Ohio St. could be
moved to an empty lot and reopened as a third co-op. The association, which is not affiliated with the University, also runs the Sunflower House, 1406 Tennessee St., and the 1614 Co-op, 1614 Kentucky St.
The nonprofit association is working with the Kansas University Endowment Association to acquire ownership of the property. The University would otherwise demolish the house in the next two months to make way for a new scholarship hall.
"It's a way to save one of the houses with historical significance," Seibel said. "It
looks like it'll happen."
A two-year disagreement between the University and the Oread Neighborhood Association about the demolition required the intervention of former Gov. Bill Graves, who said the project could move forward last September. The University wanted to build a new scholarship hall in the area while opponents said the buildings had historical importance.
The house dates back to 1891, first

He spent 20 years as chairman of Latin American Studies at Tulane University in New Orleans before coming to the University
Griffith received a Medal of Merit from the Guatemalan government in 1947, a Distinguished Service Award from the Conference of Latin American Historians in 1989 and an Honorary Doctor of Humane Letters degree from Southwestern College in 1990.
The Griffith Collection, a collection of his Central American research, is located in the Spencer Research Library.

Science Fiction writers to sign books for public
The Oread Bookstore, 1301 Jayhawk Blvd. in the Kansas Union, will hold a science fiction and fantasy book signing Saturday.
The signing is free to the public and is in conjunction with the Campbell Conference. The annual conference awards authors of science fiction with three awards: the John W. Campbell Memorial Award for the best science-fiction novel of the year, the Theodore Sturgeon Memorial Award for the best short science fiction of the year and the induction of honorees into the Science Fiction Hall of Fame.
After the awards authors will be available at the bookstore from 12:45 to 1:30 p.m., July 12, to sign books and view CSA, a speculative documentary about the South winning the Civil War.
Ruth Lichtwardt, assistant buyer for books at Oread Bookstore, said the book signing and Campbell Conference attendance had grown over the years.
Lichtwardt said book signings rarely turned a profit, but she expected one from Saturday.
"All the profits earned from Oread sales go to Student Services," Lichtwardt said.
University to research newborns' syndrome
Brandon Baker
University of Kansas researchers will join the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in a five-year, $6 million study on Fragile X syndrome.
Steven Warren, director of the University's Life Span Institute, will lead the projects with KU associate research professor Nancy Brady.
The grant is funded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development.
The two researchers will focus on how families adapt to having a child with FXS and study comparing the effect of parenting of children with FXS to their siblings.
Warren and Brady will also collaborate with the University of California at Davis in a plan to screen one-million newborns with FXS. This project is based on a three-year NICHD grant.
The researchers have already shown how crucial parenting style is to children's language development, especially children with developmental disabilities.
The syndrome is the most common inherited form of mental retardation. It occurs in both male and females, but is more severe and frequent in males.

Student dies Sunday in drowning incident
By Annie Bernethy aberneth@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Memorial services for a University of Kansas student who died Sunday will be held at 2 p.m. today at Memorial Chapel Funeral Home in Olathe,14275 S.Blackbob Road.
Tracy Wilcutt, Overland Park junior died after drowning in an Olathe neighborhood pool.
The 21-year-old student was with a friend, Michael Paul Heyborne, at the time. The two were swimming at the pool after it had closed.
Residents at the Parkhill Manor subdivision said when they came to the pool they found Heyborne looking into the pool. Residents said they pulled Wilcutt out of the pool while their children ran to call police.
Police said officers and an emergency crew attempted to resuscitate Wilcutt
about 1 a.m. She was then taken to Olathe Medical Center where she was pronounced dead.
Investigators said they were waiting for a toxicology report to determine whether drug use was involved in her death.
Heyborne was charged with possession of PCP, a hallucinogenic drug. He was also charged with battery against an officer after making physical contact with officers while they were trying to resuscitate Wilcutt.
The Johnson County coroner ruled the death an accident, and police said her injuries were consistent with a diving accident.
Wilcutt was an elementary education major who finished her junior year in May. She transferred to the University after attending Oklahoma Baptist University for two years. She attended Olathe East High School.

owned by Alexander Wilcox, the namesake of the Wilcox Classical Museum. KU Endowment purchased the three-story house for $184,000. John Scarffe, KU Endowment representative, said negotiations were in the beginning stages.
House movers would be able to relocate the house to another lot, Seibel said. The move would damage the sheet rock and plaster within the house, adding to the estimated $50,000 price tag to move the house to its new, undetermined location. He said the association would take out a loan for the costs and then gain that money back when the house opens and tenants move in.
"It's a pretty major process," Seibel said. "But it's better than buying a new house."
Janet Gerstner, Oread Neighborhood Association member, is also involved with the discussions and said she hoped an agreement could be reached.
"It's a very nice home with a lot of great history," Gerstner said.
Seibel said he wanted to have the new co-op open in January.

PUBLIC SAFETY
Douglas County ACLU to hold open discussion
By Ehren Meditz
emeditz@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The Douglas County American Civil Liberties Union will hold a public meeting tomorrow about Lawrence residents' relationships with the city's police officers.
Mary Davidson, president of the Douglas County ACLU and former University of Kansas lecturer in English, said the Lawrence Police Department was "generally very good." But, she said the county chapter had received complaints about some officers and heard grievances concerning profiling, harassment and failure to protect.
"We think adolescent males of all races are likely to be profiled while driving," Davidson said. "We were told of a Chinese-American student who was stopped three times in one week."
Speakers from different backgrounds will discuss personal experiences with
"I think, on average, students would be treated worse than your typical upstanding citizens."

police. An open discussion follows where attendees can ask the panel questions.
David Burress, national ACLU board member and associate scientist at the University of Kansas' Policy Research Center, recommended students attend the event.
In the majority of cases police conduct was not problematic, but when it was, items like age, economic status and ethnicity factored in, he said.
"I think, on average, students would be treated worse than your typical upstanding citizens," Burress said.
John Frydman, Lawrence attorney, said he has dealt with many complaints from
The Douglas County American Civil Liberties Union's public meeting will be held at 7 p.m. tomorrow, in the Lawrence Public Library auditorium.
PUBLIC MEETING
Be polite and respectful. Never badmouth a police officer.
PROTECT YOUR RIGHTS
Stay calm and in control of your words, emotions and body language.
Don't get into an argument with the police. Anything you say or do can be used against you.
Keep your hands where the police can see them.
Don't run. Don't touch any police officer.
Don't resist even if you believe you are innocent.
Don't complain on the scene or tell the
students about the Lawrence Police,but that was typical for any police force.
He said those complaints ranged from the minor, such as handcuffs being too tight, to claims of profiling and harassment.
He said most people did not know that
police they're wrong or that you're going to file a complaint.
Do not make any statements regarding the incident.
Frydman spoke at last year's Douglas County ACLU meeting about citizen's rights when dealing with the police.
Ask for a lawyer immediately upon your arrest.
Remember officers' badge and patrol card numbers.
If you are injured, take photographs of the injuries as soon as possible, but make sure you seek medical attention first.
If you feel your rights have been violated, file a written complaint with the police department's internal affairs division or civilian complaint board.
For more information on dealing with police officers, go to the American Civil Liberties Union's web site at www.aclu.org.

they did not have to consent to searches without a warrant.
The Douglas County ACLU printed orange cards outlining the rights of citizens and how to act when pulled over, stopped for questioning or arrested. The cards are available at the meeting or on the door of Burress' office at 415 Blake Hall.

CONSTRUCTION
Road crews progress down University road
By Annie Bernethy
aberneth@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
With summer comes more construction, and this time it's right in the heart of campus.
Construction crews contracted through the city of Lawrence are working to replace water mains under Jayhawk Boulevard, making the road one-way in places.
Yesterday morning, the crews crossed the intersection by Bailey Hall and moved on to the last stretch of the boulevard.
Donald Fixico, director of the Center for Indigenous Nations Studies and professor of history, said temporary elimination of parking spaces on the road was problematic.
"It's a bit of an inconvenience," Fixico said. "The creation of the one-way causes a lot of adjustments."
Fixico said if the construction was
improving the campus, it had to be done.
Drivers who decide to chance going the wrong way can look forward to a $60 ticket from the Office of Public Safety, Lt. Schuyler Bailey said. Including $32.50 in court costs, the total increases to $92.50.
Because the construction is a city project, it's not costing the University any money. Gary Lawson, engineering manager for the University's Design and Construction Management, said one of his groups was helping to coordinate the activities.
Rain slowed the crew early on, but the project seems to be on schedule, Lawson said.
The construction on Jayhawk Boulevard should be finished by the time classes begin in the fall, he said. Crews will also work on 14th Street.
The boulevard construction will end near Snow Hall.

CITY
Fireworks ban results in warnings, not tickets
By Kevin Wiggs
kwiggs@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The smoke and sulfur smell lifted into the air, and police patrolled Lawrence looking for its source.
Last Friday was the first Independence Day since the Lawrence City Commission prohibited fireworks use last October, but Lawrence police issued zero tickets during the weekend.
Those extreme cases were not prevalent. Residents called to complain about fireworks 276 times from July 1 to 5, but only 26 of those complaints resulted in police confiscating banned fireworks.
"Our emphasis was just to educate the public about the law," said Lt. David Cobb, Lawrence police representative. "We limited our citations to extreme cases."
Cobb said those were taken because the owners were drunk or talked back to
police. Most of the time, police gave simple warnings.
Alexis Mitchell, Mead junior, and her roommates were one of the groups warned. Mitchell said they were approached at about 2 a.m. about their illegal fireworks. A police car approached them and asked if they were aware of the new law. When they said yes, the car drove away. Once the car left, they resumed igniting their M-80s.
"They obviously didn't care," she said. "They just drove by and gave a verbal warning."
Those who got away with lighting pyrotechnics might not be so lucky next year. Cobb said that although officers did not issue tickets this year, they planned to in 2004.
"Next year the learning curve will be lower than this year," he said. "We will expect them to comply."

I also feel that with a very technology savvy student body, the use of the term "Geek" and the image of your columnists with tape on their glasses is, well, idiotic.
Ah, but this week (July 2) the column is much improved. Tim loves to play Scooby-Doo on cartoonnetwork.com. Fascinating!! Staci pines over the loss of home delivery of VHS tapes and sometimes stays in on Friday nights.

PARKSIDE CHURCH

Danforth Chapel hosts an average of four weddings every Saturday this summer. In an effort to gain money for renovation, students and alumni are now being charged to use the building.
CHAPEL
Campus church marries current, former students
By Jennifer Wellington
jwellington@kansan.com
kansan staff writer
During the summer, though, the nondenominational chapel comes alive with couples pledging their love with weddings.
Nestled beside the brick and trees of Fraser Hall sits a building filled with tradition and memories. Danforth Hall, dedicated in 1946, has been a significant landmark for many couples and students over the years, but remains largely unused by students during the academic year.
From April to July, Danforth played host to four weddings almost every Saturday the busiest time of the year for the chapel, said Becky Dunavin, who handled reservations for over 125 weddings each year.
The new reservation fee funded student hosts for the chapel and will be used to create a fund for future chapel expenses, said Danny Kaiser, director for CCL.
Dunavin works as the senior administrative assistant for the Center on Campus Life. The CCL has handled the chapel since the 1980s.
Until this past January, the chapel was free to anyone who wanted to reserve the building. Now, students pay $35 and nonstudents pay $75 for their reservation.
Kaiser said because of the current financial state of the University, Facilities Operations that could not clean the chapel between the many weddings on
Saturdays. As a solution, the chapel employs student hosts to clean up after each wedding service.
Because the building is more than 50 years old, Kaiser also wants the reservation fees to help set up a fund for any future repairs in the chapel.
Many of the couples Dunavin speaks with choose the chapel because they either want a small wedding or to relive memories of their time at the University.
"It's a quaint place to get married," she said.
Rev. Rick Clock performs over 10 weddings a year at Danforth.
Alumni who ask him to officiate their weddings choose Danforth because of their fond memories of the University.
For students, Clock said the chapel served as a middle ground for the families of the students.
Weddings aren't the only occasions to fill the chapel with laughter, tears and memories. Christenings and memorial services were also held in the chapel. Religious organizations meet in the chapel and some fraternities and sororities rent it for initiation ceremonies as well.
"If you have a family in Colorado and one in Indiana, the chapel becomes a convenience for the couple," he said.
The chapel is open daily from 7:30 a.m. to 10 p.m.for prayer and reflection.

Neighbors wary of greek invasion
By Maggie Newcomer mnewcomer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
One battle is finished, but the war between greek organizations and Lawrence residents isn't over.
At their meeting last week, city commissioners gave Alpha Gamma Delta sorority the go-ahead to build a new house at 1520 Sigma Nu Place, to the disenchantment of the sorority's new neighbors.
Commissioner Dennis "Boog" Highberger gave Alpha Gamma Delta the edge in the 3-2 vote. He was the only commissioner to change his mind since the sorority's earlier proposal, which was defeated 2-3.
Rick Stein, a neighbor on Avalon Road, said he had wanted a different outcome and was disappointed.
Although Highberger passed this vote, the commissioner said he would be reluctant to approve the building of another dormitory-style house on the adjacent empty lot, also zoned for residential dormitory housing. That lot is also for sale by Sigma Nu fraternity.
Highberger said he thought the house was too much of a contrast with the singlefamily homes it borders. But,he said,it was approved because the proposal met all guidelines for residential dormitory zones,such as having parking for each resident.
Stein said he would not oppose another greek house in the neighborhood, but he wanted the house to be smaller and for fewer students.
"How much noise do we have to hear?" Stein said. "How much litter are we going to have to pick up out of our yards?"
Stein said he was concerned with the greek organizations disrupting the neighborhood lifestyle. He said neighborhood residents had not experienced any problems with existing Greek organizations in the neighborhood, but were concerned about the increase in traffic on their streets.
The city commission decided to require sorority members living at Alpha Gamma Delta to put identifying stickers on their cars so neighbors would know if they were parking on their streets.
Neighborhood residents were prepared
to ask the city commission to re-zone Alpha Gamma Delta's lot to prevent building, but when the commission passed the sorority's proposal, re-zoning became moot.
Stein said residents would try to re-zone the second lot as well to bar additional density problems in the neighborhood.
Highberger said he preferred a compromise between residents and greek organizations to re-zoning.
Sigma Nu, which sold the lot to Alpha Gamma Delta two years ago, still owns the lot north of Alpha Gamma Delta's building site.
Chris Schumm, alumni representative of Sigma Nu, said at last week's commission meeting that the fraternity planned to sell the second lot to finance a renovation.
Schumm said the fraternity's house had already been renovated and the members were depending on money from the sale of the second lot to replenish their funds.
Sigma Nu representatives could not be reached for comment.

Board plans discussion on evolution guidelines
TOPEKA — Evolution could become a hot topic again for the State Board of Education.
Board members planned to discuss today whether they want to review science testing standards in place for the past two years, which made evolution an important topic for students to learn.
The alternative is a limited, internal review of how students are performing on science tests.
Andy Tompkins, education commissioner, said Kansas law required the board to conduct some sort of review starting this year but suggested a limited one, with a more thorough review in 2005.
Reviewing the science testing standards themselves would involve a lengthier process and appointment of a committee of educators.

Biology convention discusses problems facing coral reefs
By Kevin Wiggs
kwiggs@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
An ocean hasn't existed in Kansas for 85 million years, but researchers from 26 countries don't care. They've come to the University of Kansas to discuss marine life.
The University is hosting the seventh International Conference on Coelenterate Biology this week, the first held in the United States.
"It is the best opportunity to see people in closely related fields covering many aspects," said Adorian Ardelean, Timisoara, Romania, doctoral student. "This is the best meeting I can get."
Daphne Fautin, professor of ecology and evolutionary biology and chair of the conference's organizing committee brought the event to the University. She said she wanted to display the University's unique biology department.
"Other universities focus on the molecular level of organisms, like DNA," she said. "KU looks at the animals as a whole.
I wanted to showcase that."
The main topic at this conference is the plight of coral and coral reefs.
If the coral situation does not improve it will reduce the population of fish, said Ray Pierotti, associate professor of biological sciences at the University.
"It's a very serious situation," he said. "The water temperature is rising and we're not quite sure why, and diseases are showing up and we're not sure where they come from."
Theories for these coral problems include global warming, people building resorts around the reefs,the dumping of sewage into the ocean and fishermen using dynamite to catch fish around the reefs,Pierotti said.
Yesterday the conference attendees took field trips to various locations around Lawrence and Kansas City. Lectures will resume in the Kansas Union tomorrow and Friday, with workshops on Saturday and Sunday.

Workshop teaches kids the science of having fun
SUMMER CAMPS
By Brandon Baker bbaker@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
MATTHEW
On the sidewalk outside the University of Kansas' Natural History Museum, 4- and 5-year-old children dance and shake their wet arms in the sun learning about the science of evaporation.
Zach Straus/Kansan
When asked what happens to water in the hot sun, a little girl chimes in "it dries."
During the Summer Workshop for Young People 2003, children learn about nature and science at the Natural History Museum.
Scott McKenzie, Salina senior, corrals students outside Dyche Hall as part of the Summer Workshop for Young People 2003. McKenzie assisted with the science program Monday afternoon.
Teachers like Dena Podrebarac, Interim Education Director at the museum, teach children about the process of evaporation and other science-related themes in a language children can comprehend. Podrebarac teaches students about the neighborhoods and towns where plants and animals thrive in the session on animal communities.
McKenzie will graduate with an environmental studies degree and thinks working at the Natural History Museum is a good way to earn extra cash during the summer.
Podrebarac devotes most of her time in the summer to the hands-on learning process and planning for fall sessions.She said she created the curriculum for her classes over the eight years she had been involved with the program. She adapted her program with videos and experiments to involve children directly with the learning process.
"I'm into nature and the environment and I like teaching kids,"McKenzie said.
Scott McKenzie, Salina senior, assists Podrebarac this summer. Last week, he worked with the adolescent age group on a canoeing trip down the Kansas River. They stopped for lunch and bits of education about the banks along the way.
Monday during class children sat cross-legged, or "crisscross applesauce" as Podrebarac called it, on carpet squares attentively watching a video about desert bio-domes. She would confirm the children's inquiries when they
Teachers manage up to 16 children per session with the help of one aide.
Though employees involved with the summer sessions are paid, tuition costs from students subsidize the expenses of the camp because the sessions receive no state funding Podrebarac said. Tuition costs for 4 to 7-year-olds is $65 for five days.The price increases for 8 to 14-yearolds to $75 for five days.
The cost of tuition is worth it to parents like Holly Ostlund, Lawrence resident. Ostlund's 5-year-old daughter, Olivia Quinn, enrolled for this weeks' session.
"I like that the kids are not inside all day, that they take hikes and work hands on," Ostlund said. "The teachers aren't just some high school students. They know what they're talking about."
This summer 104 children enrolled in the summer session. Podrebarac said the numbers were down because of a decrease in advertisement of the session and campus construction.

HOUSING
Residence hall deals with uninvited guests
By Brandon Baker bbaker@kansan.com kansan staff writer
They scurry, love cheese and live in Hashinger Hall. They are also 1 inch tall.
Hashinger has a few new guests staying in the residence hall this summer—mice.
The number of mice has not been confirmed, but maintenance crews set out sticky traps, sheets of paper with glue facing up, to catch them last week.
Charloette Goodman, Custodial Supervisor, said in her 17 years of employment with the University of Kansas, the first mouse she had seen was caught by a sticky trap last week.
Kelly Payton, Olympia, Wash., senior, said the traps had not stopped all the mice.
"I saw one run right over the sticky trap," Payton said. She said the running joke was to put in notices in the maintenance box every night the mice were seen.
Goodman said maintenance received two notices and was dealing with the situation. Hashinger staff members filed the notices with maintenance. Payton, an employee working Hashinger's front desk, said she thought the new guests came from the theater in Hashinger.
Payton did an experiment in her residence hall room with a bag of chips last week to determine the existence of mice in her room. When she returned to the unwatched bag, a little hole was chewed through the bag. Payton didn't spot the
culprit, but she suspects her furry little foes were behind it.
"I've been watching them very closely over the last couple of weeks," Payton said.
The food served in Hashinger should be safe though, said Peggy Robinson, maintenance technician.
"I would eat from the kitchen, and I do," Robinson said.
She has worked in the basement of the 41-year-old building for more than seven years and has never seen a mouse.
Cory Xenos, Louisburg senior, said she had seen the mice in Hashinger and they were the one thing she was afraid of. She ran away from the last mouse she saw in Louisburg.
"They're small and move really quickly and could carry diseases," Xenos said. "I don't want to have to deal with that."
Ken Stoner, director of student housing, said mice had occasionally visited residence halls during the winter or when their habitat was displaced. Stoner said the construction of the new student recreation center could be a cause of the Hashinger sightings.
"It happens from time to time and we deal with it," Stoner said.

HEALTH
Man regains consciousness after being in coma since 1984
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Ark. — A man regained consciousness after spending 19 years in a coma as the result of a car crash, greeting his mother who was waiting at his bedside.
His father, Jerry Wallis, said his son uttered his first word June 12, was able to talk a little a day later and has improved ever since.
Terry Wallis, 39, had been at a hospital since the July 1984 crash.
Terry's wife, Sandi, said her husband
was riding with a friend when their car left the road and plunged into a creek. Terry and his friend were found the next day underneath a bridge.
Wallis' daughter, Amber, was born shortly before the accident. She is now 19 and Terry has said he wanted to walk again, for her. He is a quadriplegic as a result of the crash.
The friend was dead and Terry was comatose.

NIGHTLIFE
Fetish night examines sexual taboos, freedom
By Amy Kelly
akelly@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
One Lawrence man is on a mission of salvation, but souls are not what he's out to redeem. Sexual freedom is the gospel, according to Jericho.
As the leader of the fetish group Contra Naturam, Jericho has spent the last year and a half exposing crowds to sexual experimentation at The Bottleneck's recurring Fetish Nights.
Because of the taboo nature of fetishes — nonsexual body parts or objects that arouse sexual desire Jericho said he wanted only the troupe's stage names revealed to the public.
Although last Saturday's show at The Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St., was a mock revival, luring closeted fetish practitioners into the public eye has become a serious business for Jericho.
If Jericho has his way, millions of eyes will see his troupe's every move.
The 31-year-old said he would like to look into a national tour of the troupe's performances and sell a reality series about Contra Naturam to cable networks such as HBO.
Amy Rollins, Prairie Village junior arrived at her first Fetish Night experience with barely any outfit at all.
Leather-clad women and men occupied the club, as did dinner dress-wearing ladies and men strapped up in Birken-stocks.
"I got out of the shower and my friends said maybe I should just go in the towel I was wearing," said Rollins, whose boyfriend periodically misted her with a spray bottle to complete the ensemble.
"Everything else in life is hard to come by and is hard work," Jericho said. "But you can go home, jerk off anytime you want and no one can stop you."
The large and diverse crowd at the recent Fetish Night showed just how far Jericho's message has reached.
The purpose would be to bring the joy of sex to people's lives, he said.
Saturday 21st December

Contra Naturam "dominant" Kittirina, who appeared in body-hugging leather and lace, said the variety of people she
Members of the performance troupe Contra Naturam flog, flail and moan as a part of their show's first act for the latest installment of Fetish Night. The show, which featured acts of bondage, submission and domination, was held at the Bottleneck on Saturday.
saw at each performance didn't surprise her.
"There is no gap in fetish," Kittirina said.
The script, primarily written by Jericho, is set in a post-apocalyptic Earth, where "Enforcers" strip human beings of their rights to pleasure. Jericho's character, the Reverend Fred Felch, arrives to preach the good word of dildos, spanking and Priscilla's pleasure kits.
Along with the token rope, candle wax and a life-sized crucifix used as a whipping post at Saturday's show, Contra Naturam delved into a bit of satire as well.
Even away from his character's fire and-brimstone pulpit, Jericho spoke with the fervent passion of a true believer.
"We're young, we're beautiful and we should have as much fun with sex as we possibly can," Jericho said.

DANCE
Bowery Dancers not seeking illustrious Broadway stages

Unlike most dancers, Ellie Goudie-Averill has no plans to accomplish her dreams on the stages of New York.
Instead, the Topeka senior and six other University of Kansas dancers formed the Lawrence-based Bowery Dancers, a dance troupe that combines various dances such as the minuet, ballet and Irish step dances and performs throughout Kansas.
Kathleen O'Connor, Topeka senior, and Brandy Green, Lee's Summit graduate, engage mock celebration as part of a humor piece about football during their Bowyer Dancers concert in South Park, 12th and Massachusetts streets. The concert, held Saturday evening, showcased original dances and was free to the public.
Together, the members, who met through the University Dance Company wanted to create an interest in dance throughout the Midwest, Goudie-Averill said.
The members, two University graduates and five KU students, formed their
troupe to increase dance opportunities in Lawrence. Goudie-Averill said the group planned to forgo New York and other major cities to stay in the Midwest.
"All of us are from Kansas," she said. "We all have family we'd like to stay close to."
A dancer since she was five, Goudie-Averill said she wanted to inspire other children through the troupe. Her passion for dancing was something she wanted to rub off on children, she said.
Joan Stone, University dance instructor, said the Midwest needed the Bowery Dancers.
"When they realize that there's something out there to participate in, that dance is a combination of body, of mind, of creativity, that's when I know I've done something," she said.
Stone said the reason dancing wasn't as popular in the Midwest as it is on the East and West Coasts was because people lived farther apart.
"In New York, you have people in a concentrated area that are interested in dancing and the arts," she said. "In the Midwest, there are fewer people who live farther apart."
Stone, who saw the Bowyer Dancers
perform in Salina last month, said she thought the students had a good chance at being successful with their troupe.
"I think it's a wonderful idea," she said. "They're following the history of past traveling dance troupes."
History is alive throughout the newly established dance troupe.
The name "Bowery" originated from the canopy of tree branches, or boughs, built to protect dancers performing outdoors one hundred years ago.
Last Saturday, the dancers performed the first of four performances in South Park, 1141 Massachusetts St. Future South Park performances will be July 12 and 19, and Aug.2.
In addition, the dancers combine new and old styles of dance, modernizing the minuet and traditional ballet styles.
Other members of the Bowery Dancers include Brandy Green, Lee's Summit, Mo., graduate; Beau Hancock, Hugoton senior; Michael Ingle, Topeka senior; Kathleen O'Connor, Topeka senior; Jeffrey Potter, Great Bend senior; and Christine Scott, Topeka graduate.

Annie's Country Jubilee offers slice of Americana
Richard Gintowt rgintowt@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
It's 7:30 p.m., and the Annie's Country Jubilee Band has just kicked into its first song.
"Gonna have a party, every Saturday night," sings Jim Winters. With his sultry baritone croon, Winters could make a living as an Elvis impersonator. Judging by the captivated expressions on the wrinkled faces of the white-haired crowd, Winters could very well could be the King resurfaced.
As the band kicks the last note of the song to raucous applause, sound engineer Rick McKinsey's game show-like voice booms out of the speakers.
"Good evening ladies and gentleman, and welcome to Annie's Country Jubilee," he said with a smile. "In beautiful, tropical downtown ..."
"Tonganoxie, Kansas!" shouted the near-capacity crowd of 284, as if led by a flashing teleprompter above the stage.
'Good, clean family entertainment'
The eight performers onstage at Annie's are not thinking about their day jobs as fitness instructors, chief financial officers and industrial battery technicians. For two hours every Saturday night, they are an opry band. According to the Annie's faithful patrons, they are the best opry band in Kansas.
"There's no smoke,no drinking and no dirty talk. It's a wonderful show."
Lorie Corbin
Eudora resident
"There's no smoke, no drinking and no
dirty talk," said Lorie Corbin, an 80-year-old fan from Eudora who has been in Row D Seat 6 every Saturday night for the last five years. "It's a wonderful show."
Annie's is more than just good, clean family entertainment for the entertainers and 300 patrons who pack downtown Tonganoxie every Saturday. It is a place for friends to gather and family to meet; a place where the experiences of a sevendecade life can be neatly folded and placed in a little three-minute songs with room left over for a steel guitar solo.

Illinois man pleads guilty to transporting illegal alien
KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) — An Illinois man pleaded guilty Monday to one count of transporting an illegal alien.
LAWRENCE MADISON PAMPLONA WACO HONG KONG SINGAPORE
Jaroslaw Brazkowski, 32, admitted he took an illegal alien from Chicago to Olathe to get a Kansas driver's license, U.S. Attorney Eric Melglen announced.
Marie Klucarova, a citizen of the Republic of Slovakia, had answered an advertisement in a magazine that promised help in obtaining a driver's license. She paid $300 and promised to pay another $1,300 after she got the license.
Brazkowski admitted that he had transported others to Olathe to fraudulently obtain Kansas driver's licenses or identification cards to avoid immigration laws, Melgren said.
Brazkowski faces a maximum of 10 years in federal prison if convicted.
Sentencing was set for September 22.
Men arrested after throwing fireworks at police officers
WICHITA (AP) - Two men are facing drug charges after one of the men tossed a firecracker at a police car.
Police pulled over the car in which the men were riding Thursday after the man sitting in the passenger's seat flicked the firecracker, said Janet Johnson, representative for the Wichita Police Department. It's illegal to possess fireworks in Wichita.
As the car was coming to a stop, one of the officers noticed the passenger throw from the window what later was identified as a bag of cocaine.
Then, a marijuana joint was spotted in the ash tray as the second officer talked to the driver.
The 23-year-old driver ended up with a ticket for the marijuana joint, and the 17-year-old passenger was in the juvenile intake assessment center Monday facing a charge of cocaine possession.

Wisconsin student charged with killing three gamblers
MADISON, Wis. (AP] — A University of Wisconsin freshman was arrested and charged with killing three men in their sleep, authorities said Monday.
Meng-Ju Wu, 19, was charged with three counts of first-degree intentional homicide.
The men were found dead of gunshot wounds on June 26 after a woman looked into a window of a duplex in Verona and saw someone lying in a pool of blood. Jason C. McGuigan, 28; Daniel R. Swanson, 25; and Dustin J. Wilson, 17, were killed.
Wu was arrested late Sunday in New York City, Bernie Coughlin, Verona Police chief, said. Authorities were unsure if Wu was trying to flee the country.
Wu, originally from Taiwan, is a permanent resident alien and was associated with the victims, Coughlin said. He would not discuss a possible motive.
However, a criminal complaint filed Monday in Dane County Circuit Court said Wu befriended McGuigan because he wanted to gamble. The complaint said he told authorities that McGuigan set up an offshore betting account for him and advised him which teams to bet on. It said Wu told authorities he had lost $15,000 gambling in the last three months.

WACO, Texas (AP) — In the week since police announced that Patrick Dennehy, Baylor University center, was missing one of his closest friends has been named a "person of interest" and teammates have been questioned.

Another player, Harvey Thomas, a transfer forward from Fredericksburg, Va., also had stayed there and even had a key. But a few weeks ago, Dennehy changed the locks and told Turk not to let Thomas or anyone else in.
Dennehy, whose SUV had been broken into recently, began locking the dead bolt from the inside, and Turk had to knock on his own door to get in after work.
"They would answer it,looking pretty paranoid and holding guns," Turk said. "They were protecting each other from whatever they were scared of."

Man kills five people at Mississippi factory
The Associated Press
MERIDIAN, Miss. — A factory worker known as a racist "hothead" who talked about killing people opened fire with a shotgun at a Lockheed Martin plant Tuesday, leaving five fellow employees dead before committing suicide.
Dozens of employees at the aircraft parts plant frantically ran for cover after assembly worker Doug Williams, dressed in a black T-shirt and camouflage pants, started firing during a morning break.
As many as eight people were wounded in the nation's deadliest workplace shooting in 21/2 years.
Exactly what set Williams off was not immediately clear, but co-workers said he had had run-ins with management and several fellow employees.
Williams was white, and four of his victims were black; the fifth was white.
Nevertheless, Sheriff Billy Sollie said it appeared Williams fired at random with the shotgun and the semiautomatic rifle. "There was no indication it involved race or gender as far as his targets were concerned," Sollie said.
Several co-workers said they were not surprised when Williams was identified as the killer.
"When I first heard about it, he was the first thing that came to my mind," said Jim Payton, who is retired from the plant but had worked with Williams for about a year.
One of those killed was Lanette McCall, a black woman who had worked at the plant 15 years. Her husband, Bobby McCall, said she expected Williams to harm someone someday.
Steverson said Williams was known as a racist who did not like blacks. And Payton had said Williams had talked about wanting to kill people. "I'm capable of doing it," Payton quoted Williams as saying.
"She said he made a threat against

black people," a distraught McCall said. He added: "Obviously, he was a sick guy. I wish somebody had given him some help before he done destroyed my life and my kids' life."
Authorities said Williams was carrying a .223-caliber semiautomatic rifle when he entered the plant, but he apparently only used the 12-gauge shotgun. He also had three other small-caliber guns in his truck.
Russell Wright, who works at the plant but was not there Tuesday, described Williams as "a hothead."
The shooting stunned residents of Meridian, a city.of 40,000 near the Alabama line whose economy is largely dependent on the military. It is home to the Lockheed plant, a naval air station and an Air National Guard training center
Some of the wounded were hospitalized in critical condition.
The Meridian plant employs about 150 people and builds parts for C-130J Hercules transport planes and vertical stabilizers for F-22 Raptor fighter jets.
It was the nation's deadliest workplace shooting since a software tester in Wakefield, Mass., killed seven people the day after Christmas in 2000.

Bulls gore two Americans at annual Pamplona festival
PAMPLONA, Spain (AP) - Bulls gored two Americans and an Australian yesterday on the second day of Pamplona's annual runs with the bulls.
One of the gored Americans, Al Chesson, 57, from Pittsburgh, spent a terrifying half-minute being thrown around in the narrow alley leading into the bull ring that marks the end of the run.
"It was like King Kong tossing coins," the former U.S. Marine and marathon runner said in the hospital, as he awaited
surgery. Chesson was gored twice in the right thigh and once in the groin.
The other gored American was identified as Dallas Hatchcock, 24, from Los Angeles, with a jab in the left arm.
"I saw a bull throw some guy against the wall. I was trying to get his attention. It worked, I guess," Hatchco said.
The Australian was identified as Nicolas Headlam, 29, with an 8-inch gash in the chest. His hometown was not immediately given.

According to local legend, the contest dates back to the 1800s when a local bully challenged other men in the village to prove their worth by carrying their wives "a proper wife, a stolen wife or someone else's wife"—through an obstacle course.
Taiwan last place dropped from SARS infected areas list
HONG KONG (AP) The World Health Organization removed the last SARS hot spot Taiwan from its list of infected areas, saying the illness that killed more than 800 people worldwide has been contained.
There are lingering fears the virus could return,but experts said the public health lessons learned from this crisis will help in any future outbreak of infectious disease.
But she warned that severe acute respiratory syndrome could spread again if countries are not careful. There still are close to 200 cases in hospitals around the world.
"Today is a milestone," WHO Director General Dr. Go Harlem Brundtland said at the group's headquarters in Geneva.
"The world is not SARS free," she said. "It is possible that SARS cases have slipped through the surveillance net and we know that one single case can spark a new outbreak."
Conjoined Iranian twins die after unprecedented surgery
SINGAPORE (AP) Iranian twins Laleh and Ladan Bijani, joined at the head for 29 years, died within 90 minutes of each other yesterday after doctors separated them but were unable to control their bleeding in the unprecedented surgery.
In their homeland, people cried out in shock or wept as state television broke into normal programming to announce their deaths during the third day of surgery in Singapore.
Hospital officials said Ladan died 90 minutes ahead of her sister Lelah, with both deaths because of blood loss. They died while still under anesthesia.
It was the first time surgeons tried to separate adult craniopagus twins. The surgery has been performed successfully since 1952 on infants, whose brains can more easily recover.
At one of the final points of the separation procedure, surgeons cut a finger-thick shared vein from Ladan.
Rerouting the shared vein was considered one of the biggest obstacles in the surgery.
German doctors told the twins in 1996 that shared vein made surgery too dangerous.
Bush gave a wide-ranging speech on slavery and race in a visit to an Atlantic seaport where slaves once were packed onto ships and sent to America. It was his first day of a five-nation trip to Africa.
Meeting with regional leaders, Bush discussed whether to commit U.S. troops to a peacekeeping force in Liberia, founded by freed American slaves in 1822.
Bush tours African nations; evaluates Liberian situation
GOREE ISLAND, Senegal (AP) — President Bush called slavery "one of the greatest crimes of history" yesterday and inched closer toward sending American troops to a peacekeeping force in Liberia.
"We're now in the process of determining the extent of our participation," Bush said. He said he had yet to make up his mind.
Aides said Bush's comments signaled there would be some involvement of U.S. forces, although the size and role of such a contingent remains an open question.
On Goree Island, Bush toured a centuries-old house that was used as a processing center for countless thousands of Africans who were herded aboard ships that took them into slavery in America.

DEVELOPMENT
A present for Lawrence? Committee proposes amphitheater, plaza
By Maggie Newcomer
mnewcomer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The committee in charge of Lawrence's 150th birthday has an idea for a gift that would keep on giving.
The Lawrence Sesquicentennial Committee, made up of Lawrence residents, proposed a Sesquicentennial Amphitheater and Plaza be built northwest of Clinton Lake as a birthday gift for the community when Lawrence turns 150 years old on Sept. 18, 2004. Yesterday, the city commission gave unanimous approval to raise money for the plaza but placed the amphitheater under consideration.
Fred DeVictor, director of Lawrence Parks and Recreation Department, said the outdoor amphitheater and plaza would be part of a long-term plan to develop 1500 acres above the dam at Clinton Lake.
"It would be a future venue for the community to enjoy," DeVictor said.
Fred DeVictor Lawrence Parks and Recreation Department director
"Who knows where the city's going to be in 50 more years?"
DeVictor said Lawrence was expanding westward toward Clinton Lake. Centennial Park at Sixth and Rockledge streets was established in 1954 for the city's 100th birthday, he said.
"Fifty years ago that was the edge of town," DeVictor said. "Who knows where the city's going to be in 50 more years?"
In the proposal submitted to the city commission last week, the amphitheater would seat 5,000 and hold events such as concerts and theater productions. The committee estimated that the combined costs of the plaza and amphitheater would be $1.67 million. DeVictor said the project would be privately funded but that they
were waiting for the city commission's approval before raising the money.
Doug Pickert, project manager from Landplan Engineering in Kansas City, Mo., said, "It would have a commanding view of the park land and the Wakarusa valley."
DeVictor compared the proposed amphitheater to Johnson County's Theater in the Park. The plaza would also display the history of Lawrence and Douglas County, Pickert said.
By combining the two attractions, DeVictor said he thought visitors to the area would increase.
Lawrence's 150th birthday celebration was officially kicked off on Friday with a parade, said Susan Henderson, representative of the Lawrence Convention and Visitors Bureau.
Henderson said the celebration would continue with parades, parties and historical activities until Sept. 18, 2004.

Nichols won't be charged for killing fetus in bombing
OKLAHOMA CITY — A murder charge accusing bombing conspirator Terry Nichols of the death of an unborn fetus was dismissed yesterday by a state judge who refused to throw out 161 other murder counts against Nichols, including the death of a second fetus.
The state charges are for the 160 other victims as well as two of the victims' unborn fetuses. Nichols trial is scheduled for March 1.
Nichols' preliminary hearing judge ruled that two bombing victims, Robin Huff and Carrie Ann Lenz, were carrying fetuses that could have survived outside the womb. Huff was 32 weeks pregnant and Lenz was 26 to 28 weeks along.
Nichols, 48, is already serving a life sentence on federal bombing charges for the death of eight federal law enforcement agents in the April 19, 1995, bombing of the Oklahoma City federal building, which killed 168 people.

Director's first day off to hectic start

Lew Perkins, the new athletics director at the University of Kansas will visit eight towns in Kansas, meet with the governor, play in a golf tournament, attend a meeting of the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce and somehow find time to attend a Kansas City Royals game all in two weeks.
Perkins' schedule was revealed at an informal meeting with the press Monday evening, after his first day on the job where he made statements concerning his day.

perkins
that morning, A. Drue Jennings, former interim athletics director, turned over the department with a symbolic gesture by giving him the keys to his office.
Perkins looked tired that afternoon as he laid back in his chair recounting the first day of his new job to the media. He said he met with department staff, former and present student athletes, toured the
facilities, the campus and parts of Lawrence.
Perkins said the most important part of the day came when he spent about an hour with student athletes, including men's basketball junior forward, Wayne Simien.
"This is a business一a $27 million business and the most important part is the 500 student athletes," Perkins said.
Doug Vance, associate athletics director of communications, said Perkins would make meeting with student athletes every day a priority.
Perkins also commented on the ticket controversy, in which 121 season ticket holders for men's basketball were asked to pay $5,000 to keep their seats. Perkins said whoever came up with the idea was a genius. He gave his full support and said the money raised would benefit student athletes.
He said he would rather have donors upset with him than have the athletes suffer.
Perkins also wants donors to know that if they are KU supporters, they must come to other sporting events, not just basketball. With this in mind, Perkins said he

Longtime adviser follows Williams to North Carolina
By Saju Ng alla
sngalla@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The University of North Carolina has snatched away another member of the men's basketball program. Wayne Walden, a 15-year academic adviser for the team, will leave the University of Kansas today.
It was an offer that Walden could not refuse - an opportunity to work again with Roy Williams, North Carolina's new men's basketball coach.
"Coach Williams is the biggest reason I am leaving," Walden said. "I have so much respect for the way he does things, especially in the kind of players he recruits."
Williams' major priority was developing basketball players with strong characters and abilities to handle the responsibilities of life, Walden said. He wanted to continue to be a part of that development.
His announcement gives the athletics department time to study his position and decide how it could be improved, said Paul Buskirk, associate athletics director
for student support services. This evaluation will look at the needs of students, the main responsibilities of the adviser and the effectiveness of the position.
In addition to serving as academic adviser, Walden supervised counselors and performed various administrative duties, Buskirk said. Walden also was the academic adviser for Kansas' baseball team and women's tennis and volleyball teams.
Whether Walden's successor will do the same will be decided when the evaluation ends.
Buskirk said that Lew Perkins, athletics director, and Bill Self, men's basketball coach, would not play a role in the search.
He also said he would head the search committee and it would be looking for a gifted counselor with extensive knowledge of Kansas athletics and Big 12 procedures.
Several individuals have already shown interest, Buskirk said, but he would wait until after the evaluation to advertise the position. He expects to have the position filled by the end of the month.

Missouri basketball player violates probation at party
The Associated Press
Floyd said he had befriended the troubled athlete at the request of basketball coach Quin Snyder, and told reporters he would make a similar effort to help any student with problems.
Boone County Circuit Judge Gene Hamilton on Monday canceled a workrelease program for Clemons, after speaking to representatives of the halfway house where the athlete failed to report as scheduled Friday evening.
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Suspended Missouri basketball player Ricky Clemons will go from a hospital to jail for violating work-release terms, after wrecking an allterrain vehicle while visiting the university president's home without permission on Independence Day.
Meanwhile, the university president, Elson Floyd, said Clemons told him incorrectly that he wasn't due back to the halfway house until late Friday.
Clemons, 22, was ordered to report to the county jail within two hours of his release from University Hospital, where he remained in fair condition Tuesday suffering from injuries including a punctured lung and broken ribs from Friday night's ATV accident along a gravel road near Floyd's residence.
Clemons pleaded guilty June 13 to misdemeanor assault and false imprisonment of a woman last January.
The woman, who had dated Clemons,
Clemons has so far served 18 days of his 60-day sentence for a conviction arising from a domestic assault case involving a female acquaintance.
He will have to serve the remaining 42 days in the county lockup, Hamilton ordered.
said he choked her and detained her against her will at his Columbia apartment.
Clemons, a 5-foot-11 point guard, was suspended from the basketball team for one year after entering his guilty pleas. But he has another year of eligibility and still holds a basketball scholarship.
The Floyds were hosting a private gathering of family members at Providence Point, the president's official residence just a stroll from the Hearnes Center, where the Missouri Tigers play basketball.
He said Clemons, who arrived on foot, told both Floyds that he was not due back at Reality House until 10:30 p.m. Friday. He was actually required to return by 5 p.m., and had not checked in, officials said.
Flovd said alcohol was not served.
He said Clemons was driving and a visiting 14-year-old boy who is related to the Floyds was riding on the ATV owned by Mrs. Floyd.
The president said he had shown Clemons the brakes and other features of the vehicle.
A university police report said the ATV overturned around 9:45 p.m. on a gravel road near the residence.
The passenger said "the back end started to go from side to side and the next thing I knew, I'm flying through the air," according to the report, which Floyd distributed.
The ATV turned over, Clemons landed in a ditch and the passenger ran for help, the report said.
Clemons was taken by ambulance to the hospital a couple of blocks away. The passenger was treated for a leg injury and released, Floyd said.
DIRECTOR: Perkins wants sports equality
planned to increase attendance at football games next season and make it a major source of income.
"Yes, it would be absolutely hard," Perkins said. "It is going to be a bitch." But, Perkins said, it could be done and the football team was going to be a winner. Everything is possible, he said.
Perkins is going to do everything in his power to ensure that Kansas programs improve. He wants respect from other
schools in the Big 12, even if that means they hate Kansas' winning ways, he said.
For this to happen, Perkins said he would have to make some tough decisions.
"I know at times I will go home at night and say I really hated making that decision," Perkins said. "But if such a decision is made to ensure the success of Kansas, then it will be made."

Royals, Relaford keep building despite lack of All-Star picks
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Among American League division leaders, the Kansas City Royals are alone in having only two players on the All-Star team.
Is anybody surprised?
This band of walking wounded and overachievers surprisingly hold a 3 1/2 game lead in the AL Central. They willingly admit they do not exactly bristle with proven talent.
"We don't have two or three big bopper guys who are going to hit 70 home runs, or a guy with a 1.60 ERA," said utility infielder Desi Relaford. "It's a combined effort on a daily schedule. We've used our entire 25-man roster."
Relaford, signed as a minor league free agent in January, has been about as valuable as anyone in the 47-39 surge that has the Royals in first place one week away from the All-Star break. He's played several infield positions and is hitting .291 with six home runs and 36 RBIs.

WIMBLEDON, England (AP) — Serena Williams' second straight Wimbledon championship helped her mark a full year at No. 1, while Roger Federer's first Grand Slam title lifted him to a career-high No. 3 in the ATP Tour rankings Monday.
Williams made her debut atop the WTA Tour rankings on July 8,2002,the Monday following the end of Wimbledon.She beat older sister Venus in each of the past two finals at the All England Club.
Only five women have stayed at No.1 for more consecutive weeks than Williams' current stand.
No.2 Kim Clijsters had a chance to overtake Williams by finishing better than her at Wimbledon but lost to Venus in the semifinals.

Armstrong finishes stage safely after crash Monday
SEDAN, France (AP) — Lance Armstrong finished in a pack behind winner Baden Cooke of Australia in the second stage of the Tour de France on Monday.
Armstrong, trying to win a record-tying fifth straight Tour, achieved his goal for the stage by staying out of trouble. The 31-year-old Texan finished 54th and was in 10th place, 11 seconds behind Bradley McGee. The Australian retained overall leader's yellow jersey with a 52nd-place finish.
Armstrong's finish came one day after 35 riders crashed toward the finish of the first full stage on Sunday. Armstrong was not seriously injured.
Cooke won the stage in a fierce final sprint after a long trek across the French countryside.

Collison signs $4 million deal with Seattle SuperSonics
SEATTLE (AP] — The Seattle SuperSonics have signed their No. 1 draft pick, Nick Collison, to a three-year contract reported to be worth more than $4 million.
Terms were not disclosed by the club Monday, the same day the 6-foot-9 power forward from Kansas participated in a summer league scrimmage.
The Seattle Times reported yesterday that Collison, 22, the 12th overall selection in the NBA draft, signed a three-year agreement paying $4.2 million with a club option for a fourth year, a standard package in the NBA's sliding scale for first-round rookie contracts.
The Seattle Post-Intelligencer reported that Collison's deal was believed to be worth more than $5 million. Under the league's slotted salary range,the most the three-year deal could be worth is $5.09 million, the Post-Intelligencer added.
Like all first-round draft picks, Collison has a slotted salary range for a three-year rookie contract that includes a team option to add a fourth year to the deal. As the No.12 pick,the most Collison's three-year contract could be worth is $5.09 million, although exact terms weren't released.
Prosecutors to discuss charges against Lakers star
VAIL, Colo. (AP) — Prosecutors met with sheriff's officials Monday to discuss whether to file charges against Kobe Bryant, who is accused of sexually assaulting a woman at a hotel near Vail.
In a brief statement, District Attorney Mark Hurlbert said only that the talks were intended to figure out the next move. He declined further comment.
The 24-year-old Los Angeles Lakers' star turned himself in to authorities Friday and was released after posting a $25,000 bond, officials at the Eagle County sheriff's office said. Bryant's lawyer said her client was innocent.
An arrest warrant was issued for Bryant after a woman accused him of sexual misconduct on June 30 in a hotel in the Edwards area, outside Vail, authorities said. The woman was not identified.

Relieve computer woes through Web, help manuals
Computer problems often make you want to chuck your computer out the nearest window, run down to the local computer store and buy a brand new trouble-free computer.
GEEK SPEAK
Don't despair. These days, many computer problems can quickly and easily be fixed without picking up the phone or a 500-page manual. In no time, you'll be back on the Net, surfing for cheap airfares and e-mailing grandma in Florida.
Staci Wolfe & Tim Sears
geekspeak@kansan.com
If you own a brand-name computer such as Dell, Micron, Apple, IBM, Compaq/Hewlett Packard or Gateway, your first stop should be the manufacturer's Web site. These days, manufacturers are generous about publishing frequently asked technical questions and specifications, driver updates, searchable knowledge bases and even chat-based live support. You can find this all for free.
We decided to peruse four manufacturer's Web sites to give you a quick lowdown on some of their more handsome features.
Gateway
http://support.gateway.com/
Here, you can enter a serial number and get all the specifications on a desktop or
server. There is also a tool you can use to query your computer for information about the hardware and operating system — whether it's a Gateway computer or not.
Gateway also offers some unique tools for managing multiple computers. "My Other Systems," http://support.gateway.com/support/srt/othersystems.asp, allows you to store and personalize support for up to 10 Gateway systems. From here, you can view the "as-shipped" configurations as well as detailed system information.
Apple
http://www.info.apple.com/
Apple has gone the way of the Acrobat PDF. It's tolerable because you can find manuals for not only current hardware and software but also some of the old-
school Apple products such as the Newton and the Apple StyleWriter printer. The PDFs we viewed were quick to load with broadband — and offered excellent visual references as well as step-by-step directions. It doesn't get any easier than this.
However, when it comes to troubleshooting, the Apple support site is sadly, lacking. It's easy to get frustrated when searching its knowledge base because including too much detail in the search results in finding nothing. But you can get some good instructions on how to eject a CD-ROM. (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=43010) Dell
http://support.dell.com/
Dell's online support is a lot like Gateway's. You can find out a lot about your computer if you know the customer number and model. Filling out online forms can sometimes seem sketchy, but Dell's was painless and short.
Dell also provides sections on its support site for downloads, system documentation, software reinstall guides and a Dell Community where you can get answers to your computer problems from fellow Dell
Hewlett Packard
customers.
http://welcome.hp.com/country/us/eng/support.html
HP is the company that saved a lot of computertechs and system administrators many hours of headaches by placing all of their printer drivers online and making them available for download. The HP/Compaq merger has not changed the HP Web site. In fact, it is just as easy to locate information about Compaq computers and servers.
If you choose to search for support and troubleshooting information on a specific printer and click on "solve a problem," you can browse through a list of known compatibility issues. How cool is that?
Sears is a graduate student in the integrated marketing communications journalism program. He is the Kansan systems technician and an assistive technology trainer for the disabled.
Wolfe is a graduate student in journalism with an emphasis in business and technology. She has worked for more than six years as a support analyst, computer trainer and project manager. She is also the Kansan Web editor.

Fresh summer produce entices eyes,taste buds
Want to embrace true summer fare? Imagine sampling the freshness of a creamy avocado, a juicy mango or papaya or relishing in the terrific two-some tastes of tarragon and thyme, to name a few. With such summer produce on the mind, there's no wonder in wanting to dive into the freshest of foods that summer has to offer.
Summer produce includes all kinds of fruits, vegetables and herbs, including zucchini, corn, eggplant, yellow squash, watermelon, mangoes, raspberries, basil, rosemary and oregano.
There is so much to do with these wonderful foods, why not take advantage and romance some of these gorgeous provisions to create a fantastic, great-tasting meal?
Do it soon though, because the freshest of the fresh are here for only a couple of months. Try the Lawrence Farmers' Market, 10th and Vermont streets.
To get you jump-started, here is a light and sultry meal that is exploding with all kinds of summer flavors. Serve grilled lemon-rosemary pork tenderloin with an avocado, corn, and cherry tomato salad and a blueberry, blackberry and raspberry parfait at a party and your guests will be experiencing the flavors of summer in no time.
8-10 servings

HOROSCOPES
DiGiacomo is an Apple Valley, Minn., senior in communication studies. She studied at Dante Alighieri cooking school in Florence, Italy.
If your birthday is this week..
New educational programs and business training will captivate time and attention over the next three months. In the coming weeks, expect key officials to change daily schedules. Remain true to past expectations and, if possible, set firm boundaries. Both romantic partners and long-term friends are highly motivated to bring greater intimacy or security into their lives.
9
Aries (March 21-April 20).
Social indecision and lingering romantic doubts end. Over the next few days, expect creative intimacy to become a reliable theme between loved ones. If so, expect yesterday's misgivings and restrictions to no longer apply. After Thursday, financial planning requires attention. Several weeks of stalled payments or debt need to be resolved. Stay focused.
Taurus (April 21-May 20).
Strained friendships and family disputes are easily settled. Early Tuesday, expect longterm friends or relatives to almost effortlessly describe their feelings. Areas of concern involve past regrets or lost intimacy between loved ones. Accept all revised promises as honest expressions of affection. Thursday through Saturday highlight fast career progress and improved job assignments.
Cancer (June 22-July 22).
Over the next few days, long-term friends ask for greater access to your private life or present unusually creative ideas. Expanded financial commitments, unique educational programs or newly explored sensuality may be on the agenda. Stay open. This is the right time for revised emotional agreements and fresh practices.
Gemini (May 21-June 21).
Early Tuesday, a colleague may reveal private romantic information or an unexpected social history. Over the next few days, many Cancerians will experience an unusually intuitive understanding of body language, subtle gestures and unconscious actions. Watch for sudden glimpses into the motives.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22).
Older officials may challenge your credibility. Instructions to younger employees, personal schedules and financial information are accented. Don't be unnerved. Group frustration and boredom are major influences in the workplace. Remain patient and watch for improvement. After Thursday, explore all romantic compliments.
Virgo (Aug.23-Sept. 22).
Minor home disputes drain your energy this week.Expect loved ones to be moody,mildlycrit-
ical and self-involved. After Wednesday, however, a dramatic increase in social awareness is due to arrive. Watch for friends and relatives to slowly regain a positive perspective. Some Virgos may also experience mild skin irritations.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
Business managers and new employees defer to your proposals and authority this week. Late Monday, watch for an atmosphere of acceptance or group awareness to arrive in all working relationships. If needed, use creative skills and past experience to resolve temporary political differences.
Scorpio (Oct.24-Nov.21).
Love, long-term relations and new home commitments are prime topics of discussion. Many Scorpiois will experience a dynamic expansion of romantic relations. Sentimental reflections and yesterday's memories will also offer delightful moments. Unattached Scorpiois can expect dramatic new social invitations and a series of quick proposals.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Avoid extra business or financial commitments. Co-workers, managers and financial agencies may expect more time and energy than is warranted. Although new work or money ventures are promising, react with caution. This is not the right time to rush into demanding new responsibilities.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20).
Late arriving social information may create controversy. For many Capricorns, relations with loved ones will be disjointed. Watch for friends or trusted relatives to challenge group commitments. Predictable habits or old social patterns are no longer acceptable. Find creative ways to introduce fresh attitudes and activities. After Friday, love relationships begin seven days of decision.
Aquarius (Jan. 21-Feb. 19).
Family and social communications are unreliable over the next few days. Expect loved ones to focus on new social information and yet be unwilling to discuss their feelings. Areas of concern involve competing social loyalties, disappointment with friends or a loss of romantic interest. Muddle through; the attitudes of others are not within your control.
Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20).
Lingering romantic questions and unresolved social mistakes can be easily righted. Late Tuesday, expect loved ones to accept your explanations, suggestions or past actions. Although serious events are not at issue, others are receptive to trust, social growth and shared goals. Offer a full description of recent doubts; all will be solved.

THEATER
University Theatre to perform graduate's award-winning play
By Amy Kelly akelly@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
A Broadway baby will be celebrating its golden anniversary in the Heartland.
This year marks the 50th year of performances for William Inge's Picnic, which the University Theatre will perform next week in Murphy Hall's Crafton-Preyer Theatre.
Inge, a 1935 University of Kansas graduate of speech and drama, earned a Pulitzer Prize and the New York Critics Circle Award for Picnic, a comedy that debuted on Broadway in 1953.
Set in a small Kansas town on Labor Day weekend, Picnic revolves around the romantic eruptions and disruptions that occur when a handsome, young drifter named Hal arrives.
University graduate Hannah Ballou choreographed the show and plays the role of Millie, a young girl who Hal eventually beckons out of a tomboy phase.
Ballou said the passions explored in Picnic were still pertinent to today's audiences.
PICNIC
Picnic will be performed on July 11,12 18 and 19 at 7:30 p.m.Tickets are $12 for the public,$10 for college and high school students, $11 for senior citizens and $6 for children 5 through 12. To purchase tickets, call the University Theatre at 864-3982.
Zach Straus/Kansan
"It's worth the trip to the theater to mull over your own emotional connections and relationships," said Ballou, who added that she cried every time she saw the final scene. "They are bright as fire in this play."
"Millie," played by Hannah Ballou, Topeka senior, during a rehearsal of William Inge's Picnic, reveals that she has feelings for "Alan," played by Andrew York, Wichita junior. The rehearsal, held Monday night, was in preparation for the play's opening on July 11th in the Crafton-Preyer Theatre in Murphy Hall.
THE BOYS AT THE SWING
Although Picnic focuses on the timeless subject of romantic relationships, director Jack Wright, professor of theater, said the cast needed to research the 1950s setting to understand the era's mood and state of mind.
Even with the nostalgic overtones, Wright said many of the scenes could easily depict contemporary events. When the character of Madge fell in love with Hal over the course of a few days, Wright said parents today would probably not have a
hard time relating.
"Young kids who run off, get married and say,'Screw the parents'—none of that has changed." Wright said.
Inge based his play on his mother's boarding house in which three women who worked as school teachers lived together without male companionship. Inge, who died in 1973 of an apparent suicide, said his boyhood observations taught him about longing.
"I began to sense the sorrow and the emptiness in their lives and it touched me," Inge said in a biography published on the William Inge Theatre Festival Web site www.ingefestival.org.

Living Wage supported
New commissioners, Chamber disagree
By Ehren Meditz
emeditz@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
The Lawrence City Commission will begin discussions on a living wage proposal next month that could make it the first city in Kansas with such an ordinance.
The commission plans to take up the proposal in its Aug.19 meeting.The proposal states that any company receiving a
waiver of its taxes, called a tax abatement, should guarantee its workers a living wage. The proposal defines a living wage as 30 percent above the federal government's defined poverty level - about $9.53 an hour.
Two new commissioners elected in April, Dennis "Boog" Highberger and David Schauner, as well as Vice Mayor Mike Rundle, campaigned on their support of a living wage in the April elections, creating a majority for the proposal on the
The Lawrence Chamber of Commerce, which opposes the living wage, commissioned the University of Kansas Policy Research Institute in May to study the living wage issue and gauge the effects it would have on employment and wages. The study was slated to be completed in the fall but Chamber President Lavern Squier said he was reevaluating the Cham-
five-member commission.

Blood donations needed during summer shortage
Zach Straus/Kansan
The Community Blood Center will be sponsoring a blood drive today from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Kansas Union in the Kansas Room.
Donors must be at least 17 years old, weigh at least 110 pounds and be in good health. Donors are asked to bring identification.
Individuals who donate will receive cholesterol results four to six weeks after in the mail.
The Community Blood Center supplies blood to 73 hospitals in 70 counties within Missouri and Kansas.
Summer is a difficult time for the blood center, said Cindy Schmiedeler, recruitment representative for the Community Blood Center. Summer vacations keep regular donors away and increased summer traffic accidents produce a higher need for blood donations.
Incoming freshmen Katherine Blaise, Overland Park, and Robert Berger, Olathe receive free T-shirts from Nick Lambert, Minneapolis junior as part of orientation activities at the Kansas Union. Blaise and Berger attended orientation yesterday although the program runs throughout the entire summer.
Fresh look
A person in an auto accident could use up to 50 units of blood.
The center has set a goal of 50 pints of blood for this summer's campus drive. Last summer, the drive only produced 46 donors compared with 79 in 2001, Schmiedeler said.
— Annie Bernethy
A person within the area that Community Blood Center serves needs a blood transfusion every four minutes. In order to meet that demand, the center must collect 550 pints of blood each day.
University receives grant for genome research
The grant will fund the beginning stages of research on disability perspectives in the Human Genome Project. The project has explored medical options for people predisposed to disorders such as mental retardation and Alzheimer's disease.
Opponents of genome research claim scientists have crossed ethical boundaries and devalue disabled individuals.
The U.S. Department of Health & Human Resources and the National Human Genome Research Institute have awarded the University of Kansas $300,000 for human genome research, U.S. Sen. Sam Brownback announced on July 11.
The 15-year Human Genome Project reached its original goal of mapping the complete human genetic code in April 2003.

New hospital to provide care for heart patients
The University of Kansas Medical Center in Kansas City, Kan., has announced its plans to build a new $72 million hospital. The hospital will treat patients with heart, lung and vascular problems.
The 153,000-square-foot facility will also include an expanded emergency department and additional operating rooms.
Heart surgeries at the Med Center increased 44 percent since last year. Catherization and electrophysiology procedures increased 45 percent from over a year ago. Overall,Med Center surgery has increased 10 percent this year.
The decision to build the new hospital came in response to the increase in patients.
The Med Center will break ground for the facility on Nov. 1 at the northeast corner of the main hospital, 39th Street and Rainbow Boulevard.
Baltimore-headquartered firm RTKL designed the building and J.E. Dunn Construction will build the structure.
Jennifer Wellington
ON THE RECORD
Operation funds and borrowed funds will cover the cost. The Med Center receives no federal, state or local tax money.
A University employee at Tower D of Jayhawker Towers told police that an unknown person kicked and damaged a door sometime between Saturday and Monday. Damage was estimated at $75.
CORRECTIONS
Last week's University Daily Kansan contained an error. The article, "Oread house could live on," stated that University officials plan to build a scholarship hall. A scholarship hall is scheduled for construction during the fall 2005 semester, but officials plan to build a second hall as well.
The July 2 University Daily Kansan also contained an error. The article, "Local fireworks ban burns students," identified a source as Ben Price, KU graduate. His name is Billy Price.

Administrators at the University of Kansas are preparing for the Recording Industry Association of America to file an mp3-related lawsuit against any KU student. The RIAA announced last month that it would begin filing lawsuits against Internet users who offered "substantial" amounts of files for others to download for personal use.

File swappers may face charges for music piracy
By Richard Gintowt rgintowt@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Chronic music downloaders beware the Recording Industry Association of America may be coming after you.
The University of Kansas' information services department is holding meetings to prepare for a scenario in which the RIAA would issue a subpoena requesting the name of a student on the University's network.
The RIAA announced last month that it would begin filing lawsuits against computer users who illegally share "substantial" amounts of copyrighted music over peer-to-peer networks like KaZaA and Grokster.
The RIAA did not say how many files qualified as substantial.
"I don't think we're above and beyond the reach of these guys," said Jenny Mehmedovic, coordinator of information technology policy and planning.
So far the University has been the sole disciplinarian of overzealous file sharers, issuing warnings and requiring repeat offenders to attend education sessions.
The RIAA could not take action against specific students because it could not match those students' Internet Service Provider addresses with their names.
The RIAA said in a press release that it could serve a subpoena on the ISP
requesting the name and address of the violator under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.
Because the University is its own Internet Service Provider, the subpoena would likely come to the Office of Information Services.
Mehmedovic said she would be paying close attention to whether other universities were receiving subpoenas.
"We're hoping to learn from the experiences of our peers so we're prepared when the fall semester starts," she said. "It's probably not as likely during the summer since there are less students downloading music."
Jim Pottorff, the University's general counsel, said the University would disclose students' names as long as the subpoena was valid.
"It seems the recording industry is becoming more aggressive," he said.
Matt Morgus, a bass player for the local band Salt the Earth, said he encouraged people to download his band's music.
Jeff Brandsted, Topeka senior, said the RIAA's announcement would not deter him from downloading music.
"When you don't have a lot of money from a major label, it helps," he said.
"I don't really think it will be worth their time," Brandsted said. "They can't go after everybody."

STUDENT LOANS
Lower interest rates assist students with school costs
By Maggie Newcomer mnewcomer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
During his four years at the University of Kansas, Chris Walla has accumulated a mountain of student loan debt. The architecture major said there was no telling how much money he would make after he graduates in May 2004, and he did not know how long it would take to pay back his loans.
"Anything to help make the payments lower would be great," said Walla, Colorado Springs, Colo., senior. "I've got a lot of loans right now."
Walla said consolidating his loans and taking advantage of record-low interest rates was an appealing payment option.
As of July 1, the interest rate for borrowers who are already repaying loans dropped to 3.42 percent, according the Office of Student Financial Aid. The interest rate for borrowers who are still in school is 2.82 percent.
Stephanie Covington, assistant director of financial aid, said consolidating debt allowed students to make one lump payment instead of several payments to different lenders. She said students would end up paying less because combining the loans would lower the minimum required payment.
Covington said student loan applications at the University were up 8 percent from last July.
"That could be because of interest rates, or the rise in tuition, or both," Covington said.
KU students' loans are processed through the Direct Loan Servicing Center, a division of the U.S. Department of Education. Because the office performs an annual audit in January, Covington said there was no way to tell how many more students were consolidating loans at this time.
Covington said the first step for students seeking loans at the University was to fill out a Free Application for Federal Student Aid.
Covington advised students to keep track of their loans and know how much they would owe once they graduate.

CIVIL RIGHTS
Committee seeks dialogue between city police, citizens
By Ehren Meditz
emeditz@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The Douglas County chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union unveiled plans for a police relations committee during its public meeting last week.
The Community/Police Relations Committee will be made up of volunteer members to examine resident complaints against the police as well as hear positive comments.
Mary Davidson, president of the Douglas County ACLU, said the committee would be independent of the ACLU and any other body.
Rick Trapp, sheriff of Douglas County, attended the event. He said he supported a dialogue between the police and the community, but had concerns about the new committee.
Trapp said a public forum was not the best setting for investigating complaints. He said the police department had an internal affairs division that responded to complaints thoroughly.
A news release handed out at the meeting said the committee would not try to resolve specific problems, but rather bring issues to public discussion. It also said the committee's independence of the police department would provide an outlet for individuals who felt intimidated by the police force.
James Owen, vice president of the University of Kansas School of Law chapter of the ACLU, said the police in attendance were receptive and understanding.
Owen said the committee would be productive with feedback and openness from the police.

WAGE: Plan could keep businesses from Lawrence, critics say
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
Kansas Angsted by Big Labs's National Ways Conceit
THE KANSAS CHAMBER
NO-BIZ
Lew Ebert, president of the Kansas Chamber of Commerce, points out who he thinks will suffer because of Lawrence's proposed living wage ordinance. The Chamber gave its first "No-Biz" award to the city last week, saying the ordinance would harm the state's business atmosphere.

ber's plans. He said he would discuss how to proceed with other Chamber members in an upcoming meeting.
"We have to understand what the concerns are and then find ways to address them," Squier said, adding that misinformation surrounded tax abatements and the living wage.
Highberger said he thought the study had merit initially, but then had misgivings. He said living wage studies had been done to death.
"The Chamber is on record as strenuously opposing this ordinance," Highberger said. "I think there will be a perception of bias no matter how fair the study is."
Donna Ginther, associate professor of economics and leader of the study, said it was not likely an empirical study could be done before the Aug.19 commission meeting.
"I don't know what aspects of study will be done or if the study will go forward at all," she said. "An independent evaluation of the impact of living wage ordinances would be useful because very few highquality studies exist."
David Smith, one of six members of the Kaw Valley Living Wage Alliance steering committee, said the Chamber could do a study but there was plenty of data about the issue already.
"The results seem clear," Smith said. "Living wages work."
Mark Goode, president of KU Young Democrats, said all of the Young Democrat leadership supported the living wage.
"I think students should care about the living wage if they are from Lawrence or plan to settle in Lawrence after they leave school," Goode said. He said that it was in the student's interest to be sure the city attracts quality companies to the city with quality jobs.
Along with Lawrence, there are living wage campaigns under way in Wichita and Manhattan as well as for the entire state of Kansas.
Lew Ebert, president of the Kansas Chamber of Commerce, said the Lawrence campaign was the only one moving forward, making the city the winner of its not-so-esteemed "No-Biz" award last week. As the first winner of the newly created "No-Biz" award, Lawrence caught the ire of the Kansas Chamber for what it calls efforts to obstruct businesses with burdensome regulations: namely, the proposed living wage ordinance.
"It's obviously going to put a black eye on the state of Kansas," Ebert said.
Ebert said if the proposal passed, it would cost more money to convince businesses to locate to Kansas.
RECENTLY PASSED LIVING WAGE ORDINANCES
Santa Fe, N.M. — February 2003
Santa Fe becomes the second city,after New Orleans,to enact a citywide minimum wage increase when the City Council approved an $8.50 minimum wage for any business in the city with at least 25 employees. These are the only two cities with wage ordinances that affect more than just city workers and contractors.
New York City—Nov. 27, 2002
Mayor Bloomberg signs into law a living wage ordinance that covers more workers than any other such law in the country. The law applies to about 50,000 employees of service contractors doing business with the city principally health care workers, as well as a handful of day care, food service and disability service workers. The initial living wage is set at $8.10 plus health benefits, or $9.60 if benefits are not
provided by the employer.
"The hidden provisions of the proposed living wage ordinance amount to even more government red tape that will actually stifle the creation of news jobs," Ebert said in a Kansas Chamber news release.
Cincinnati — November 2002
The Broward County Commission approves a living wage law that sets a floor of $9.57 an hour — or $10.82 an hour if health benefits are not provided — for all county employees and companies entering into contracts with the county to provide the following services: food preparation, security, maintenance, clerical work, transportation, landscaping, printing or reproduction.
The Cincinnati City Council enacts a living wage law that obligates the city itself as well as any city service contractor with a contract worth at least $20,000 to pay a living wage of $8.70 an hour plus health benefits, or else $10.20 an hour, adjusted annually.

Broward County, Fla. — October 2002
Kirk McClure, a member of the Public Incentives Review Committee, which studies tax abatements for the city, estimated no more than five companies currently receiving abatements pay below a living wage. He said he didn't know if the proposal would address these companies,
"There is already a labor shortage, so there is little need to provide tax abatements to produce low-pay jobs," he said.
but that he didn't expect the City Commission to pass abatements to companies that provide low-wage jobs.
The last abatement commissioners granted was earlier this year for Serologicals Corp., which paid wages above the living wage.

Living wage effectiveness views vary among cities
Baltimore has had a living wage for nearly a decade. Omaha, Neb., had enough after just one year.
The seven-member Omaha City Council passed the living-wage ordinance in Spring 2000 by a 5 to 2 vote. It applied to both city workers and city contractors. Former Mayor Hal Daub veted the measure, but the City Council then overrode the veto.
A little more than a year later, a similar scene played out as the city found itself in a budget crisis.
The City Council voted to repeal the ordinance by the same vote. The financial means to pay city workers, such as pool lifeguards and ticket takers were limited. Instead of the $9 an hour living wage, those wages went down to $6.50 or $7 an hour. Again, former Mayor Mike Fahey vetoed the plan only to have the City Council overturn his veto. Fahey had wanted only the city workers to be removed from the plan as a compromise.
As Omaha's elected leaders tangled with the plan, Baltimore had more than five years of experience with its living wage ordinance.
Baltimore, the first town to adopt a citywide living-wage ordinance in December 1994, has a different story to tell. Former Mayor Kurt Schmoke told The New York Times in an April 9, 1996, article that the costs to the city were less than 1 percent of the city's revenues. It requires city contractors to submit payroll records to the Baltimore Wage Commission to ensure the companies adhere to the city's policy.
In late May and early June, workers brought a complaint against Aramark Sports and Entertainment Services, which operates the concessions at the Baltimore Convention Center, and said they did not receive the $8.49 living wage.
The Baltimore Wage Commission is still investigating the matter. The city penalizes companies that do not pay workers a living wage $50 per worker, per day.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Don't teach evolution
Frightened evolutionists do everything in their power to prevent students from learning about the new developments in evolutionary thinking. All over the country, teachers and school boards who want to inform students about the scientific case for intelligent design in biology face the threat of lawsuit or other forms of social intimidation.
Students skeptical of Darwinism, and they are legion, are discouraged from voicing their objections in the public school science classroom. Those who want to explore scientific evidence more consonant with an intelligent design perspective are silenced. Indeed, the influential California Science Framework advises teachers to tell such students to "discuss the question further with his or her family and clergy." In other words, verboten in school.
The Kansas 1999 School Board ended this academic totalitarianism. Its decisions were absolutely in the direction of academic freedom. The 2001 standards brought back the tyranny, simply to keep biologists comfortable in their naturalistic worldview.

SHOPPING
Local bargain hunters track auction deals
By Richard Gintowt rgintowt@kansan.com kansan staff writer
Nathan Warner buys low and sells high, but he's not playing the stock market.
"I bought a dresser for $10 and sold it to Freeman's for $35," he said, referring to Freeman Used Furniture, 1145 Pennsylvania St. "I had gas money for a week."
Warner, a Free State High School graduate who will attend the University of Kansas in Spring 2004, spends one weekend a month shopping at auctions in Lawrence.
He said the key to getting good deals was waiting until the end of the auction.
"I don't even come until 3 o'clock Sunday," he said. "Last month I found a big round wicker chair for 25 cents."
Auctioneer
LEARN THE LINGO: WORDS COMMONLY HEARD AT AUCTIONS
The person whom the seller engages to direct, conduct or be responsible for a sale by auction. This person may or may not actually call or cry the auction.
Bid Rigging
The unlawful practice whereby two or more people agree not to bid against one another so as to deflate value.
For thrifty shoppers like Warner, auctions are a cheap and entertaining way to decorate and even earn some spare cash.
Caveat Emptor
A Latin term meaning "let the buyer beware." A legal maxim stating that the buyer takes the risk regarding quality or condition of the property purchased, unless protected by warranty.
For a tight-knit group of Lawrence auctioneers and auction-goers, the auctions are also social events.
Sealed Bid

The sale of property left by a person at his or her death. An estate auction can involve the sale of personal and/or real property.
A method of sale utilized where confidential bids are submitted to be opened at a predetermined place and time. Not a true auction in that it does not allow for reaction from the competitive market place.
Price established by the last bidder and acknowledged by the auctioneer before dropping the hammer or gavel.

Lawrence resident Kasey Wold, 52, has been auctioneering since she graduated from a two-week course in 1983, one of six women in a class of 440.

Wold directed a sale this past weekend for 90-year-old Velma Mignot, who sold her house and everything in it so she could move to Presbyterian Manor, 1429 Kasold Drive.
Wold said items at estate sales commanded higher prices than garage sales because the belongings never left the house.
"Anytime you take things outside and put them on a table it's no different than taking a new car off the lot — the depreciation is huge," Wold said.
For Chris Jones, Iowa City, Iowa, junior, the experience of walking into another person's home was disconcerting.
"This is weird," Jones said. "I'm not used to seeing everything for sale."

Commission delays condo project vote
By Brandon Baker
bbaker@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
City commissioners voted to delay their final vote on a project for building a five story project on the 700 block of New Hampshire Street. Next week city commissioners will decide if the project will rise into the Lawrence skyline bringing new retail, office and living space to downtown.
Students may never live in those spaces.
Mayor David Dunfield said the project would be good for Lawrence business, but students would have a hard time buying the condominiums.
"It's pretty upscale," Dunfield said. "I doubt students can afford them."
Hunter Harris works as the vice president of business development for Harris Construction, the company that pitched the project for the 700 block of New Hampshire Street. Harris said the spaces were not for rent and the cost to buy a condominium could be out of students' price range. Harris said the company had not set a final price to buy the condominiums.
"If they want to buy from us, more power to them," Harris said. "We're an equal housing provider."
Kristin Werner, Shawnee senior, lives in a home her parents bought. She said she preferred to live in a home close to campus rather than a condominium on New
Harris said marketing studies revealed single business people without children were more likely to buy housing than transient students living on a limited budget.
Hampshire Street.
"I wanted to live in a big, old, crickety house," Werner said. "That's what I had when I was a kid."
Ken Stoner, director of student housing, said he doubted the project would decrease demand for student housing on campus. Stoner said students chose to live on or close to campus because it made adjusting to college life easier.
"The first-year students get familiar with the University, then the community," Stoner said.
Stoner thought the project could take business away from the other apartments in Lawrence.
The project will be five stories tall, towering 72 feet over the Lawrence horizon. The design of the project allows retail space on the first floor and the second floor to be office space. The third through fifth floors will be for the condos.
Harris said businesses had expressed an interest in the locations. A bank has booked space on the first floor and 60 percent of the office space had been leased pending the commission's approval.
Harris said after commissioners passed the project, construction crews would complete the project in 11 months.
Werner said her parents bought the house to save money on rent and that the original investment of $140,000 would be worth it after she and her siblings lived in the house for the next nine years. Her parents planned on selling the house after she and her siblings graduated, she said.

U.S. Marshals apprehend fugitive charged with murder
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — One of the U.S. Marshals Service's 15 most wanted fugitives was captured early yesterday in Kansas City.
Larry Flenoid, 52, had been missing since he escaped from a Bureau of Prisons halfway house in St. Louis on May 5, 2000. The St. Louis County Police Department charged Flenoid with murder, kidnapping, burglary and assault on the day he escaped.
Flenoid was captured about 12:30 a.m.yesterday by deputy U.S. marshals and members of the Kansas City Police Career Criminal Squad after marshals were tipped off that he was hiding here.
Ron Henderson, U.S. Marshal for eastern Missouri, said Flenoid's arrest history dated to 1968 and included convictions of burglary, weapons violations, robbery, narcotics possession and parole violation.
"This is exactly the type of offender with a long and violent criminal history that U.S. marshals (work) hard every day to track down and arrest," Henderson said.

Teens taste college life at marching band camp
By Brandon Baker
bbaker@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
High school marching band members are getting a taste of college life this week at the KU Marching Band Camps.
Dustin Bauerle, Nickerson senior and student staff for the camps, said the camps which include sessions for guards, drum majors and musicians, help recruit future band members.
Kellie Lankford, Lawrence junior attended the camp and now plays for the Marching Jayhawks.
"Band is a huge part of these kids' life," Lankford said. "We need to convince them this is where they need to be."
The campers stay in Hashinger Hall. Boys and girls are separated by floors instead of sex-divided wings.
Ross Jungers, Prior Lake, Minn., senior, and assistant complex director for Hashinger Hall, said the camps that came to the University could make their own rules as long as they did not infringe on normal dormitory regulations.
Conference assistants lock the outside doors of Hashinger at 10 p.m. and campers have lights out at 11 p.m.
"We need to convince them this is where they need to be."
Kellie Lankford KU Marching Band Camps staff member
Jungers said alcohol was not a problem with campers because they were so young.
During the school year, residence hall staff members have their hands full dealing with students drinking. Jungers said.
Custodial crews continue to work over the summer but at a slower pace than during the school year, Jungers said.
For example, the department of music and dance would pay for damages to rooms that housed the KU Marching Band Camps, said Eric Grospitch, assistant director of apartments and conferences for student housing.
The University does not have to pay for room damages. That cost is covered by the program's sponsor.

Grospitch said the University usually broke even on summer camps, but gained future KU students.

EDUCATION
Spanish teachers,classes tough to find this fall
By Annie Bernethy
aberneth@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Students looking to take Spanish this fall may find themselves waiting or having to take a different language. The effects of a nationwide shortage of Spanish teachers have found their way to the University of Kansas.
Kathryn Tuttle, Director of Freshman Sophomore Advising, said the lack of qualified Spanish teachers was challenging.
"We're getting students to look at other options," she said.
The alternative options for students are either taking the class in a later semester or taking another language.
Schools within the University are adjusting to a lack of classes.
Linda Davis, associate dean of journalism, said the School of Journalism was relaxing its admission requirements for students applying to the school.
She said she didn't want the fact that students hadn't fulfilled the language requirement to prevent them from being
admitted into the school. Four semesters of foreign language are still a requirement to graduate, Davis said, but it was important that students weren't prevented from taking other needed classes.
Lee Skinner, associate professor of Spanish and Portuguese, said she had noticed more students trying to get into her Spanish classes at the beginning of each semester.
It is important for students to continue taking classes like Spanish early in college, rather than forgetting what they learned in high school and taking it later. Davis said.
"I'm afraid for students," she said.
"My sense is that it started about four or five years ago," she said. "The Hispanic population in this country is growing and Spanish is seen as an important language that is useful in jobs."
Skinner said Spanish was a useful language no matter what a person did. Anywhere you go, employers are looking for bilingual employees, she said.
Kim Wilcox, dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, said the college
"The Hispanic population in this country is growing and Spanish is seen as an important language that is useful in jobs."
Lee Skinner Associate professor of Spanish and Portuguese
was doing the best it could to find qualified Spanish teachers to come to the University.
Student interest in Spanish had grown nationwide over the years, not just at the University, he said.
Vicky Unruh, associate chair of Spanish and Portuguese, said her department sympathized with all the students struggling to get into classes.
She cited a rise in Spanish majors and a decrease in faculty members as the problem.
In the fall of 1998, there were 125 Spanish majors. By the fall of 2002, the number of majors had grown to 329.In addition,
around 15 full-time faculty members worked for the department, but by 2002 that number decreased to almost 11 members.
The Hispanic population in the United States is growing and people are finding that Spanish is an important language to learn, she said.
According to the 2000 U.S. Census, 12.5 percent of the population is Hispanic.
Unruh said a ripple effect was taking place throughout the department. The budget crisis coupled with the increase in majors is affecting other areas of the department.
She said the department started placing doctoral students as teachers in higherlevel Spanish classes because of the limited full-time faculty. When those students teach the higher-level classes, entry-level classes struggle to find qualified teachers.
"The administration works with what they have," she said, adding that the department would not compromise its educational standards.

VIDEO GAMES
Video gamers defend intelligence, health
FOCUS
Photo illustration by Zach Straus/Kansan
A recent study conducted by the Pew Internet & American Life Project reported that the stereotype of college video gamers as anti-social nerds was false. According to the survey, video gamers are equally as active in social and school settings as other members of university communities.
By Maggie Newcomer
mnewcomer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The notion that masterful video game players are anti-social hermits and slackers is untrue, according to a new study.
A nationwide survey of 1,162 college students by the Pew Internet & American Life Project found that video gamers are no different from the rest of the university population. Gamers and non-gamers spend a comparable amount of time studying and doing other activities,the survey found.
Ron Knox, Kansas City, Mo., junior, said he had been playing video games most of his life and was an active guy who got good grades and had plenty of friends, contrary to the gamer-geek stereotype.
Knox said his favorite games on his Playstation 2 were sports-related.
"I'm a very active guy," Knox said. "I play sports games because I play the actual sports."
For Knox, gaming is a social activity he
"Video games are not inherently bad."
Chris Crandall Associate professor of psychology
shares with friends and roommates.
"Almost every guy I know plays video games," Knox said.
Anne Wempe, Topeka junior, said although the hobby was more commonly associated with men, just as many women played video games.
Wempe and Knox both said video games did not affect their classes or jobs.
"It's about time management," Wempe said. "Anybody can get carried away with any hobby, whether it be sports or TV or reading."
Chris Crandall, associate professor of psychology, agreed that playing video games in moderation was harmless.
"Video games are not inherently bad," Crandall said. "The more time you spend playing them, the less time you spend reading the newspaper or exercising."
Wempe said she played her Super Nintendo while hanging out with friends, or if she was bored.
Knox said the time he spent playing video games fluctuated every week depending on school and work. He estimated he spent an average of six hours a week gaming, but he said he would forgo playing games to study.
The survey found that roughly two-thirds of American college students played video games, including students who played cell phone games.
"I love playing Snake on my phone," Wempe said.
Snake and a variety of other games are available on cell phones, which 85 percent of college students use, according to the Federal Communications Commission.
Wempe said it was convenient to play cell phone games whenever she had a few idle minutes because she always carried her phone.

Erin Graham, Lawrence junior, waits with her father, Steve Graham, for the Americana Music Academy's Celtic Jam Session to begin. The jam session, held every Sunday evening from 6 to 9 at 1419 Massachusetts St., features traditional Celtic songs and is open to the public.
MUSIC
Celtic jam sessions flourish; Local family plays together
By Amy Kelly
akelly@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Contemporary jam sessions often conjure images of dimly lit bars, weathered musicians with cigarettes hanging out of their pursed mouths and Fender guitars moaning 20-minute solos.
But one group of Lawrence musicians are straying from modernity and going old school. Penny whistle old school.
Taking a cue from his Scottish ancestors, guitarist Steve Graham has held Celtic Jam Sessions with folk instruments such as the penny whistle every Sunday for the past year at the Americana Music Academy, 1419 Massachusetts St.
Graham, information resource manager of the Civil Engineering Department at the University of Kansas, started the jams after he grew tired of driving to Kansas City, Mo., for the only Celtic session in the metropolitan area.
The Americana Music Academy, a center that has classes on everything from Blues history to auto harp playing, appeared to be the ideal place, Graham said. Thom Alexander, executive director of the academy, organized jam sessions in the past and welcomed Graham's Celtic twist.
The term "Celtic music" blankets various cultures, most commonly Irish, Scottish and Welsh. Graham said the jam sessions' spontaneity and openness reflected the all-encompassing music genre.
"These days, Celtic music is usually lumped together," Graham said. "The jam sessions are open to any songs people want to bring in. We're not purists here in any sense."
The Sunday events are often a clannish affair, even if unintentional.
Graham's daughter Erin, Lawrence junior, and wife, Tammy, are a few of the key musicians at the jams.
Erin has played the flute and penny whistle, an instrument with a plastic mouthpiece and tin body that creates lilting, flute-like sounds, since she was 12 years old. Tammy, who works at the KU Center for Research, picked up a mandolin six months ago and now accompanies her husband in the rhythm section.
Of course, the musicians run into a few obstacles even with traditional Irish ballads.
"You told me to repeat it!" Erin said to her parents as her melody drifted slightly from the rhythm.
"That's a common problem with Irish music," Erin continued. "Pcople learn songs differently."
A lap harpist, hammered dulcimer player and bodhran percussionist have joined the family affair in the past, but the Grahams offered an invitation to any interested musician.

LAW
Federal court rules children free to not show patriotism
The Associated Press
HARRISBURG, Pa. - A federal court yesterday barred education officials from enforcing a state law that requires public and private school students to recite the Pledge of Allegiance or sing the national anthem each morning.
The ruling by U.S. District Judge Robert F. Kelly agreed with the arguments of several plaintiffs, including a private school in Harrisburg, that the law violates students' right to freedom of expression under the First Amendment.
"I agree that (the law) unconstitutionally interferes with the school plaintiff's ability to express their values and forces them to espouse the commonwealth's views," Kelly wrote in issuing a permanent injunction.
The law also requires the American flag to be displayed in every classroom when school is in session.
Under the law, students can decline to recite the pledge and salute the flag on the basis of religious conviction or personal belief, but school officials must notify the parents of students who decline.
The Pennsylvania chapter of American Civil Liberties Union has said it believed the parental notification requirement would discourage students from exercising their right not to participate.
"The pledge is something that should be voluntary. If you have to compel students to recite it, it's so contrary to what our country is all about," said Larry Frankel, the ACLU's legislative director.
The law was signed in December by then-Gov. Mark S. Schweiker. Its sponsor, Rep. C. Allan Egolf, has said he introduced the measure after talking to veterans who told him that many schools no longer routinely recited the pledge.
"We didn't think that they would come to that conclusion because we did pretty good research on previous challenges in other states, and it was upheld because they allowed students to opt out," Egolf said.
Officials with the state Education Department, which was named as a defendant in the lawsuit, were not immediately available for comment.
The federal suit was filed in February by a high school sophomore in suburban Philadelphia; The Circle School, a private school in Harrisburg; and a teacher at the school.

Residents still fixing damage after tornado from early May
LAWRENCE LONDON ANDOVER WASHINGTON BAGHDAD
LAWRENCE (AP) — For Lawrence residents whose homes were badly damaged by a tornado in early May, perhaps the only consolation about having to live* amid such reminders as boarded-up windows is that they're far from alone.
"There is just so much to do," said Val Smith, a University of Kansas professor whose southwest Lawrence neighborhood was hardest hit. "Our block had so much damage, our contractor said it could be mid-August before they could get to our home."
In all, Douglas County Emergency Management counted 192 dwellings many of them individual apartment units damaged by the tornado. Total damage in Lawrence and the county was put at $6.39 million.
"Cleanup has been really slow, mainly because I have never done this before," said Lori Crabtree, who lives a block north of Smith. "I had to get three or four estimates and then choose which contractor to do the work, some of who did not even call me back."

Edwards Campus expansion planned after decade of use
OVERLAND PARK (AP) - As the University of Kansas' Edwards Campus celebrates its 10th anniversary this year, plans call for revamping the 36-acre suburban Kansas City site with a $70 million expansion plan.
"When I came here, this was essentially just a building," said Bob Clark, vice chancellor for the Edwards Campus, who started in 1997. "In June 2004, this evolves from a building to a campus."
Clark said the new building would allow the University to increase the number of programs it offers at the campus from 25 to 40 during the next five years. The current programs are a mix of graduate and undergraduate degrees, with some programs offering only junior- and senior-level courses to students who received associate's degrees from Johnson County Community College, a few miles away.
Great White plans tour to aid victims of deadly nightclub fire
RUSSELL (AP) — The band whose concert ended in a deadly nightclub fire in Rhode Island in February is planning a stop in Kansas next month during a benefit tour.
Organizers are working out details for
an Aug. 22 concert in Russell by Great White, the 1980s band whose pyrotechnics are blamed for starting the Feb. 20 fire that killed 100 — including the band's guitarist -at The Station nightclub in West Warwick, R.I.
The concert would be at the Plains Amphitheater, a bowl-shaped plot of land with no permanent stage and no seats. Organizers say the concert could draw as many as 10,000 fans.
City Council members and emergency officials objected to having the concert on city property,but organizers Richard Hogan,Brett Holt and Gerald Brown,all of Russell,received permission to have the concert at the Amphitheater,which is on property owned by the AmericInn motel.
Workers find abandoned fetus in tree grove at country club
ANDOVER (AP) — Police were investigating the discovery of a fetus at an Andover country club.
Two maintenance workers found the remains in a grove of trees at Cedar Pines Golf Course at about 10:30 a.m. Monday, Andover Police Chief Randall Harris said. No one could tell how long it might have been in the area.
Police said the fetus looked to be maybe four months into gestation, or about 16 of the normal 40 weeks.
The department said it hoped an autopsy on the fetus might provide more clues.
It is against the law to intentionally abort fetuses without the care of a medical doctor.
Coal-car derailment in Bonner injures none, requires clean-up
BONNER SPRINGS (AP) — Nineteen coal cars derailed early yesterday near
the Leavenworth-Wyandotte county line, damaging 800 feet of track. No injuries were reported.
The Union Pacific train was hauling 101 cars of coal from Colorado to East St. Louis, Ill. The derailment occurred at 3:21 a.m. on tracks parallel to Kansas 32 just west of downtown Bonner Springs.
Union Pacific representative Mark Davis said investigators did not immediately know what caused the derailment. Workers expected to have the coal cleared and one damaged track fixed yesterday. Another track was expected to be repaired by late yesterday or early today.
Board of Ed balks on decision concerning evolution guidelines
TOPEKA (AP] — Even if they never used the word evolution, State Board of Education members knew it was behind their disagreement over science standards.
The board on Wednesday discussed reviewing standards for science tests given to Kansas students every other year. Revised in 2001, those standards identify evolution as an important concept for students.
Board members split 5-5 over having such a review, or an internal examination focusing on how students perform on the tests and not the standards themselves. The board plans to discuss the issue again in August.
A full review would include a committee of educators making recommendations to the board.
State law requires the board to start a review of the science standards this year. Board members supporting a full review said science standards should not be handled differently than standards for reading, math, writing or social studies.

Man armed with hand grenade killed by police during standoff
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — A Kansas City man died early Saturday after he confronted police with a grenade, police said.
Police Capt. Rich Lockhart said officers were called to an area containing several duplexes at 11:20 p.m. Friday on a disturbance call. Officers responded and found a 25-year-old man armed with a hand grenade, police said. Officers negotiated with the man until about 4 a.m. Saturday, when the man walked toward them holding the grenade and police shot him, Lockhart said.
After he was shot the man fell on the grenade. When a police department robotic device tried to retrieve the grenade, it detonated. Lockhart said the man was dead before the grenade went off.
Lockhart said the man, whose name was not immediately released, was in the area trying to reconcile with his girlfriend. Residents in the area were evacuated for several hours during the standoff.
Evangelist urges retirement of 3 Supreme Court justices
VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (AP) — Religious broadcaster Pat Robertson urged his nationwide audience Monday to pray for God to remove three justices from the Supreme Court so they could be replaced by conservatives.
"We ask for miracles in regard to the Supreme Court," Robertson said on the Christian Broadcasting Network's The 700 Club.
Robertson has launched a 21-day "prayer offensive" directed at the Supreme Court in the wake of its 6-3 June vote that decriminalized sodomy. Robertson said in a letter on the CBN Web site that the ruling "has opened the door to homosexual marriage, bigamy, legalized prostitution and even incest."
The same letter targets three justices in particular: "One justice is 83-years-old, another has cancer and another has a heart condition. Would it not be possible for God to put it in the minds of these three judges that the time has come to retire?"

White House raises deficit; blames economy, terrorism
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Bush administration dramatically raised its budget deficit projections yesterday to $455 billion for this year and $475 billion for next, record levels fed by the limp economy, tax cuts and the battle against terrorism.
The totals would easily surpass the $290 billion shortfall of 1992 that has been the red ink high water mark until now.
They also mark a deterioration by more than 50 percent since February.
The shortfalls would drop to $213 billion in 2007, before edging back up to $226 billion the following year underscoring that major budget challenges will loom just as the huge baby boom generation begins to retire and relies ever more on federal benefits like Social Security.
The dreary numbers set Republicans and Democrats at each other's political throats over an issue the public has largely ignored in recent years.
White House officials and GOP lawmakers said congressional spending must be controlled and economic growth policies like tax cuts should be continued.
They said President Bush has had other, more pressing concerns.
"Restoring a balanced budget is an important priority for this administration." White House budget director
Joshua Bolten told reporters. "But a balanced budget is not a higher priority than winning the global war on terror, protecting the American homeland, or restoring economic growth and job creation."
"Deficits do matter," said House Budget Committee Chairman Jim Nussle, R-Iowa. "Spending-driven deficits matter even more."
Democrats in Congress and on the campaign trail linked the unprecedented red ink to what they call Bush's mismanagement of the economy.
They also said the numbers masked a budget problem far worse than advertised, noting that the White House excluded the costs of a U.S. role in Iraq beyond this year.
In addition, the administration only projected five years into the future, missing the massive long-range costs of Bush's plan to make recent tax cuts permanent, and of the retirement of the 75-million strong baby boom generation later this decade.
"Total fiction," Sen. Kent Conrad of North Dakota, top Democrat on the Senate Budget Committee, said of the new Bush numbers.
To justify its prediction of shrinking deficits beginning in 2005, the White House envisions robust economic growth resuming this summer, producing more jobs and corporate profits and more federal revenue.
judge because of how Waco authorities are handling the case, his attorney said Wednesday.
Carlton Dotson has been questioned once by a Waco detective who went to Virginia Beach, Va., after Dennehy's sport utility vehicle was found in a mall parking lot two weeks ago. Dotson had already returned to his Hurlock, Md., home for the summer.
An unidentified informant told Delaware authorities that Dotson told a cousin he shot Dennehy in the head as the two argued while shooting guns near Waco, according to court documents. Dennehy, a 6-foot-10, 230-pound center, has not been heard from since mid-June.
Waco police have called Dotson a "person of interest." No charges have been filed in the case.
Man gets 18-to-life sentence in New York sex slave case
SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) — A judge sentenced a retired handyman to 18 years to life in prison yesterday, calling the defendant "a sick coward" and "an evil man" for keeping five women as sex slaves in a concrete bunker.
John Jamelske, 68, pleaded guilty last month to kidnapping five women and girls and holding them from 1988 to 2003 at his home in DeWitt, a Syracuse suburb.
None of the victims appeared in court for Jamelske's sentencing, but prosecutors read excerpts from statements each woman submitted to the court.
A 16-year-old victim wrote that she almost gave up hope as she was raped daily.
"Please lock him up and never allow
him to perpetrate on any young, innocent girls again," she said. "He is an old, sick man, and he is never going to change. I hope you die in the cold, cement cell, like you wanted us to do."
North Korea pushes forward with nuclear weapons program
WASHINGTON (AP] — The Bush administration said yesterday it would try to use diplomacy to deal with North Korea's claim that it has produced enough plutonium for about a half-dozen nuclear bombs.
U. S. officials said they were not sure whether North Korean representatives were bluffing or telling the truth when they claimed to have finished extracting plutonium from 8,000 spent nuclear fuel rods.
"When they told us they had nuclear weapons, they meant it," Lawrence Di Rita, a top aide to Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld, told reporters yesterday. "I'm not in a position to characterize the intelligence assessment of what the North Koreans are telling us, but certainly what they've told us in the past has been worth paying attention to."
Gathering the plutonium from those fuel rods would give North Korea enough of the element to produce several more nuclear weapons to add to the one or two nuclear bombs U.S. officials contend the communist-led government already has.

Troops plan on occupying Iraq until legit government formed
BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) — For the first time, the U.S. administrator, L. Paul Bremer, linked the U.S. occupation in Iraq to the political process, saying yesterday that American forces would remain in the country until Iraqis agree on a new constitution and set up a democratic government.
American soldiers grumbled when told they would have to stay longer in a country where U.S. forces say they are coming under an average of 12 attacks each day.
"I'm tired of going to bed wondering if I'm going to wake up in the morning," said Spc. David Myers Jr.of the 3rd Infantry Division's 3rd Battalion,7th Infantry Regiment in Habaniyah, west of Baghdad.
The new Governing Council, meanwhile, decided to set up special courts to try former members of Saddam Hussein's regime who are accused of involvement in mass executions, torture and other human rights violations.
Bush: Any troop deployment to Liberia limited in duration
WASHINGTON (AP] — U.N. Secretary- General Kofi Annan made his strongest pitch yet to President Bush for American peacekeeping troops in Liberia, but Bush is deferring his decision until he gathers more information.
Bush said Monday that any deployment of American troops to Liberia would be limited in size and duration and would depend on Liberian President Charles Taylor stepping down and leaving the country.
Bush gave no indication he was close to a decision, and aides said they didn't expect one this week. He offered no hint of whether any U.S. contingent would comprise military advisers, humanitarian experts or soldiers.
Prince William's party crasher ducks charges from authorities
LONDON (AP) — A comedian who dressed up as Osama bin Laden and crashed Prince William's 21st birthday party won't face any charges, London's Metropolitan Police said Monday.
Self-styled "comedy terrorist" Aaron Barschak, 37, got into the June 21 event at Windsor Castle by scaling a steep embankment, climbing a tree, then jumping on to a wall and clambering to a terrace. Once inside, he persuaded police officers that he had legitimate business at the party.
The stunt was a major breach of royal security, and has led to an official investigation.
U.S., Turkey offer regrets of mistaken troop capture
ANKARA, Turkey (AP) — Turkey released a statement yesterday saying it and the United States regretted the capture of 11 Turkish special forces soldiers in northern Iraq in early July. A U.S. official said Washington still had not approved the document.
A U.S.-Turkish committee had been set up last week to investigate the surprise July 4 raid, when U.S. troops detained the Turkish soldiers in the northern Iraqi city of Sulaymaniyah.
The Turks offered the Americans tea but the U.S. soldiers took the Turks prisoners, handcuffed them, hooded them and flew them to Baghdad for interrogation. They were released more than two days later.
The capture was the latest setback to Turkish-U.S. relations, already strained since March, when Turkey rejected a U.S. request to host 60,000 U.S. troops for the war in Iraq.

While this weekend's Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics dedication ceremony honors members of the "Greatest Generation," it will give students an opportunity to learn what made World War II veterans the greatest.
Whether it's to see the famous speakers or the laser light show, students who attend the ceremony will do so for a variety of reasons.
Rachael Braswell, Overland Park senior, said seeing famous personalities, including NBC News anchor Tom Brokaw, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, and former Presidents Gerald Ford and Jimmy Carter, would be an interesting educational experience. All four men will speak at the "Salute to the Heroes" on Monday night.
She also wants to see the goals and plans of the institute, but doesn't think that will be a big enough part of the agenda.
"I'm not thrilled about the theme — the greatest generation," she said. "I want to hear about the institute itself, but it doesn't seem focused enough on just that."
Col. Mike Lee, director of Air Force ROTC, said students should attend to see and hear what the World War II veterans had to say firsthand.
"They'll get to see the energy of the people that built the nation to what it is today," he said. "As well as to learn about the significance of the contribution they made to this country."
He said the war affected many people, including parents and grandparents of KU students.
"It was only 60 years ago," he said. "Not much time has gone by in relation to our country's existence."
Second Lt. Ryan Evans, recruiter for Army ROTC, said seeing the dedication
"Senator Dole is one of KU's most famous students."
Second Lt. Ryan Evans Army ROTC recruiter
was important to learn about Sen. Dole and the role he played in Kansas history.
"Senator Dole is one of KU's most famous students," he said. "He's done a lot
for not only KU and the state of Kansas, but for the country as well. It's important to honor that."
For those not interested in history, Monday night's events also offer less-academic activities, including a laser light show to officially unveil the building.
"You can't pass up a laser light show," Braswell said.

Institute's protesters against war emphasis
By Annie Bernethy
aberneth@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The new Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics may have a lot of supporters, but some groups are finding reasons to protest its dedication and the man behind the building: former Kansas Senator Bob Dole.
University of Kansas professor Allan Hanson and the Lawrence Coalition for Peace and Justice will be one of the groups demonstrating. Hanson, professor of anthropology and member of the LCPJ, said the group would demonstrate because the dedication focused too much on war.
Hanson said the Dole Institute dedication was glorifying war, but he had no interest in degrading WWII soldiers and had nothing against Robert Dole. He said he wanted to remind people that the goal after the war was peace.
The LCPJ is opposed to war and feels the dedication is exploiting the war in Iraq and the victims of war, he said.
A Lawrence anarchist group, Tyranny Ends Now, will be protesting at 3 p.m. on Monday July 21 in Centennial Park.
TEN posted fliers around Lawrence asking residents to protest Dole involvement with the Dole Institute. The group disagrees with Dole's political stances such as support of NAFTA, the death penalty and Operation Iraqi Freedom.
Dave Strano, Lawrence resident and anarchist organizer, said TEN would be
protesting the dedication because of what it stood for.
"They're going to have a three-day party for rich people, while the rest of the world is damaged by what they do," he said.
Strano said his group stood opposed to any type of domination.
Rev. Fred Phelps of the Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka will also be protesting the dedication, although he has different reasons for the protest than the Lawrence-based groups.
Phelps said he believed in preaching to sinners and Bob Dole was one of those people.
"He has no core values," he said.
Phelps said he would also be protesting former New York City mayor Rudolph Giuliani, who is scheduled to attend the dedication.
Todd Cohen of University Relations said he expected people would protest the event.
Lt. Schuyler Bailey said officers from the KU Public Safety Office would be handling security for the dedication weekend and would have additional officers from other departments.
Cohen said there would be a protest area set up at the dedication and that he hoped people would speak their minds and behave themselves.
"Any time you have an event like this you attract different people from all walks of life," he said. "It's not a surprise."

TRANSPORTATION
Traffic congestion possible for Dole Institute opening
By Kevin Wiggs
kwiggs@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
One of the biggest events in Lawrence history could attract one of the biggest crowds in Lawrence history when the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics opens its doors for the first time Saturday.
Visitors won't be allowed to park at or near the Dole Institute because of increased security and traffic concerns unless a visitor has a special parking pass or a handicapped parking permit.
Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office said students not attending the dedication ceremony should stay away from West Campus, unless they enjoy being stuck in traffic.
Todd Cohen, assistant director of university relations, expects 3,000 to 4,000 people will attend the dedication ceremony on Tuesday morning. He couldn't estimate the number of people visiting the Dole Institute over this weekend.
Lawrence Bus Company will provide free shuttle buses to ease the parking and traffic situation. The buses will carry visitors from designated parking lots to the Dole Institute.
Buses will run from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Sunday, 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. Monday, and 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Tuesday. The buses will not run on Saturday because there are only two events
scheduled that day — the Memory Tent from 7 to 8:15 p.m., and Dole Institute tours from 5 to 8 p.m. Guests will be allowed to park at the Dole Institute for those events.
John Mullens, assistant director of the KU Public Safety Office, said the dedication attendance would be similar to a men's basketball or football game, but with considerably less parking.
The average attendance for a 2002 KU football game was 33,055.
Tom Mulinazzi, professor and chair of civil, environmental and architectural engineering, studies traffic and said he didn't think traffic would be a problem because the events were spread out over several locations and days.
However, workers at West Campus buildings are preparing for possible parking problems.
The Kansas University Endowment Association is closing its office Tuesday because of the traffic situation.
Andy Belot, Wichita junior, works at the Geological Survey in Hambleton Hall on West Campus. He said workers were concerned about the lack of parking the dedication might cause.
"We don't have enough parking as it is," he said. "There's not much we can do except inform everyone about the situation."

Perkins aims to increase football fans this season
By Saju Ng'alla

SEE FOOTBALL ON PAGE 20
Lew Perkins, the University's new athletics director, has made increasing attendance at home football games a top priority. Perkins is credited with Connecticut's record-setting football ticket sales, 26,500 tickets last year, said Lee Johnson, director of marketing for the Kansas Athletics Department.
"We plan to take it to the public," Johnson said, adding that his people will patrol the state and pass out leaflets, put up fliers and billboards. Expect to see billboards in Lawrence, Wichita and in all of Kansas City, Johnson said. He plans to overload the radio and television waves with Kansas football commercials and promos.
The marketing department for football at the University of Kansas plans to fill the stadium for every game next season.
Johnson and his department have put together a grass roots marketing strategy designed to flood Kansans with football information.
This aggressive strategy can be seen at www.kuathletics.com, where pop-up ads encourage visitors to support Kansas sports.
"You just can't pick one sport and tell me you're supporter," Perkins said in a pop-up ad. "A real supporter is someone who is committed to all the athletics pro-
Johnson said the department had a similar, but smaller, campaign last year and it worked. The football program recorded the second highest ticket sales in University history, and the highest in the last eight years.
Johnson said this year he planned to take the strategy into overdrive because Perkins wanted to fill the stadium for every game.

Academic advisers sought
By Saju Ng'alla

Kansan staff writer
Wayne Walden, the former athletics academic adviser at the University of Kansas should be on vacation right now, enjoying two weeks off before reporting to work at the University of North Carolina.
Instead, Walden is busy meeting with KU student athletes and their parents counseling them on academics.
Walden, a 1984 KU graduate, was the academic adviser for Kansas for the past 15 years before he accepted an offer to work with Roy Williams in North Carolina.
The decision was not easy for him. Walden said he had to overcome a lot of
great memories to leave Kansas.
"The University has been good to me," Walden said, "So before I leave, I want to make sure that things are wrapped up well here."
That means making sure that the student athletes he has advised are taken care

Special Olympians play for fun,not competition
Participants learn rules of many Olympic sports as part of summer camp
By Jennifer Wellington
jwellington@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
High school basketball coach Kenny McClanahan walks down the center of a basketball court in Robinson Gymnasium. Basketballs are flying around his head, sweat is dripping off his brow.
McClanahan isn't in the midst of any regular practice. Instead, he is teaching more than 50 Special Olympians the fundamentals of basketball—not just any old game of basketball, but KU basketball.
"Does anyone know where Nick Collision is going?" McClanahan asks.
Today, there are more than 6,000 athletes who train and compete in Special Olympics of Kansas. The Kansas program, which began in 1970, includes 22 sports and assists more than 110 local programs and teams across the state.
"Seattle!" eager Olympians replv
"And who's the new basketball coach?" "Bill Self!"
McClanahan is one of 10 coaches from
the state of Kansas donating their time to coach Kansas Special Olympians this summer.
The Olympians, visiting the University July 10-12 as part of a sports camp, were able to spend their time eating, sleeping and breathing Olympic sports.
Eunice Kennedy Shriver organized the first International Special Olympics Games in 1968. Shriver came up with the concept for the games when she started a day camp for people with mental retardation in the 1960s.She saw that people with mental retardation were far more capable in sports and physical activities than what many experts thought.

"The best part about this camp is that it's not a competition. The athletes are more relaxed and able to learn the skills of their sport."
Susan Krumm
Assistant vice president of sports and competition for Special Olympics Kansas.
SPECIAL OLYMPICS HISTORY
"The best part about this camp is that it's not a competition," said Susan Krumm, assistant vice president of sports and competition for Special Olympics Kansas. "The athletes are more relaxed and able to learn the skills of their sport."
The camp had 120 participants this summer, significantly less than last year, Krumm said.
Over the last four years, the camp had averaged more than 200 participants.
Krumm said the decrease in participants was a reflection of the state's and
organization's budgets.
"Most of the time when people come in, they are competitive and care a lot about their scores," Phillips said. "But these kids are just having fun."
In addition to basketball in Robinson, the Special Olympians practiced tennis,bachi,soccer,softball,aquatics and bowling at the Kansas Union's Jaybowl.
Her organization, along with many other nonprofit organizations, cut the size of their programs to fit the reduced budgets, she said.
Participants in the Special Olympics camp came to the University as parts of teams. Each team ranged from four members to 10, Krumm said. There were 19 teams this year.
Sarah Phillips, Wichita sophomore, is an employee at the Jaybowl and worked during the times the Olympians practiced bowling.
This is the first year that Gloria Hostetler, Haysville resident, and her son attended the sports camp. Her son has competed with Special Olympics for the last four years.
"We didn't know what to expect with this camp," she said. "But he's having so much fun we'll probably come back next year."

grams at the University."
Especially football, said Correy Harris, Kansas City, Kan., graduate student. He said he was interested in seeing what happens next season and he would probably go to a couple of games.
Johnson said making people excited about the game-day experience would create more interest in Kansas football. Johnson wanted people to be excited about the tailgates, so at home games a band will turn up the heat outside the stadium to get fans in a frenzy.
Johnson's football fever hasn't reached everyone on campus yet.
Katie Curtis, Wichita junior, has yet to see any of the ads or billboards in her hometown or in Lawrence, but she said she might consider going to a couple of games this year.
"I think if they allowed people who are of age to drink in the stadium then more people would go to the games," Curtis said.
Drinking is allowed at home games but only before the games start in designated areas around the stadium according to University policy. Alcohol is allowed in the luxury boxes during the games.
Vern Mandondji-Bangole, junior was born in Topeka but raised in Gabon, a country in western Africa. When she first came to the University she said she wanted to experience the excitement of football. Never mind the team was not winning, she was more into the game day experience with the thrills of anticipation and excitement.
Regardless of the marketing strategies or the winning record of the football team, Mandondji-Bangole said she would still go to the games to show her support.

ADVISER: Walden assisting in search
of —something Walden has ensured for more than a decade.
Every year since 1988, players from the team have been awarded conference academic awards.In 1997, Walden had five players take home Academic All-Big 12.
The men's basketball team four-year graduation rate stands at 73 percent.
Buskirk said Walden played a strong role in the graduation of Nick Collison, Brett Ballard, Lewis Harrison, Jeff Boschee and Chris Zerbe.
"It is very difficult to think in terms of replacing someone like Wayne," Buskirk said.
Pam Wykoff Houston, director of College of Liberal Arts and Sciences Undergraduate Services, said she enjoyed working with Walden and wanted to collaborate with someone who would work well with her academic unit.
"It is important they get someone, like Walden, who understands the importance of student athletes not being isolated in the athletics department," Houston said.
Buskirk said the search committee had yet to be formed.
Although athletics director Lew Perkins and Kansas men's basketball
Walden
PETER MAYER
coach Bill Self would not be actively taking part in the search for the new academic adviser, both had shown interest in ensuring the right person was selected, he said.
"They both have painted me a very
vivid picture of the kind of adviser they want," Buskirk said, "But ultimately the decision will be mine to make."
Buskirk said he would choose someone who had integrity, particularly in light of The New York Times' report on Sunday that Maurice Clarett, running back for Ohio State University, received preferential academic treatment.
"It is important that the candidate has a clear perspective of right and wrong." Buskirk said.
Buskirk had planned to fill the position by the end of the month but said yesterday that the position most likely would be filled by Aug. 15. Walden will start working in North Carolina on Aug.4.

Chiefs sign latest draft picks; begin training camp this week
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — With three more draft picks signed, the Kansas City Chiefs now have three to go, but only days left before training camp gets under way.
The Chiefs on Monday signed linebacker Kawika Mitchell, offensive lineman Jordan Black and defensive end Jimmy Wilkerson to three-year deals. Five of the Chiefs'eight draft picks are now under contract. Terms of the contracts were not made available by the Chiefs.
The Chiefs are in negotiations with first-round pick Larry Johnson, who led the nation with 2,655 all-purpose yards at Penn State last year. Offensive tackle Brett Williams, the Chiefs' fourth-round selection, and defensive tackle Montique Sharpe, the first of two seventh-round picks, have also yet to sign.

Bryant's attorneys, who said he was in Colorado for knee surgery at a Vail clinic, say he's innocent and expects to be exonerated.
Eagle County District Attorney Mark Hurlbert released a statement last Thursday saying a decision on whether to charge Bryant will not be announced this week.

Armstrong encounters peril of street protesters in France
MARSEILLE, France (AP) — Crashes, fatigue and sweltering heat are the usual perils. Lance Armstrong was presented with a new hazard yesterday at the Tour de France—street protests.
The disruption cost him and other riders precious time, but his overall lead was safe on a day when organizers said temperatures soared to 115 along the 136 mile route.
"It's definitely the hottest Tour that most of us can remember," said Armstrong, who is trying to match Miguel Indurain's record of five straight Tour victories. "We've always had hot days but never so many in a row."
Armstrong was stuck in a pack of riders briefly blocked by demonstrators, and he completed the 10th stage in a group that finished more than 20 minutes behind winner Jakob Piil of Denmark.
Armstrong, riding one day after he skidded off course to avoid a fallen rival, was in 45th place in the ride to this port city.

Seat belt manufacturer drops lawsuit about Earnhardt blame
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Safety manufacturer Bill Simpson dropped his lawsuit yesterday alleging NASCAR wrongly blamed his former company's seat belt for the 2001 death of Dale Earnhardt.
The $8.5 million suit was filed last year in Indianapolis and was set to go to trial in September, but Simpson and NASCAR representatives met Monday in Indianapolis and resolved their differences.
"Simpson and NASCAR are happy to announce that they agree that it is in the best interest of racing that they direct their time, energy and resources away from litigation and toward their joint goal of improving safety for professional racing drivers," the two sides said in a statement.
Simpson, the former owner of Simpson Performance Products, has always maintained that he wanted an apology not money for NASCAR putting suspicion on his seat belt for the cause of Earnhardt's death.

With a little practice, college students can revitalize sandwiches into tasty, imaginative and healthy meals. This chicken salad pita with bacon could be one scrumptious result.
Adult-themed sandwiches can pack flavorful oomph
Macaroni and cheese, pizza and alphabet soup were definitely my favorite foods as a child. Yet, the most versatile and favored food of them all was the sandwich.
As children, we developed a love/hate relationship with sandwiches. We loved the classic peanut butter and jelly sandwiches but always hated the tuna fish sandwiches.
Growing older, though, many of us began to appreciate the more retro sandwiches. You know, retro meaning a ham and Swiss cheese sandwich with a little Grey Poupon and mayonnaise. Condiments like these were not the kind of things any child wanted on a tasty sandwich.
Even though college students are typically out of the picky eating stage, some still have the kid mentality when making a sandwich. They slap on some kind of meat, cheese, condiments; bada-bing, bada-boom and it's done. Not a whole lot of originality going on there.
I know what you are thinking, though. Sandwiches aren't supposed to be complicated. They're supposed to be easy to make. Well, they can still be easy to make and even taste better if you add a little oomph to them.
For example, next time you make a grilled cheese sandwich, add some sliced tomatoes, Monterey jack and provolone cheese. Instead of butting the outside of the bread, brush on olive oil. Or when you make a turkey sandwich, add slices of avocado, bacon and alfalfa sprouts.

FDA to allow nuts vendors to advertise health benefits
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Packages of certain nuts can now advertise that eating a handful a day might just might help your heart, under a controversial new program allowing food makers to advertise possible health benefits before they're proven.
Last week, the Food and Drug Administration loosened restrictions on how much scientific proof is required to put a health claim on food packages. Yesterday, the FDA approved the first of the new "qualified health claims" — for almonds, hazelnuts, pecans, pistachios, walnuts and peanuts.
Packages of those nuts may now bear the following line: "Scientific evidence suggests but does not prove that eating 1.5 ounces per day of most nuts as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol may reduce the risk of heart disease."
That's roughly a third of a cup of nuts, or a handful.
It may sound like surprising advice considering that nuts tend to be high in calories and fat.
Indeed, the FDA didn't approve the claim for some of the fattiest nuts, agency nutrition chief Christine Taylor said. Macadamias, for instance, contain too much heart-damaging saturated fat to
make the cut.
But the American Heart Association has long said certain nuts contained mostly different types of fat that are hearthealthy — polyunsaturated or monounsaturated fat.
Only packages of approved nuts can bear the claim, not fat-packed ice cream with a nut sprinkle, and packages must direct consumers to check the back label for full calorie and fat disclosure, said the FDA's Taylor.
The decision drew the ire of consumer groups, who say at best, looser health claims will confuse Americans reading wishy-washy advice on food packages that once could bear only scientifically proven statements.
Given new understanding of the role of different fats, "the feeling was as long as they help consumers to understand this contributes quite a bit of calories, they probably should be allowed to make the claim," said Taylor.
"It would be unfortunate if the claim turned out later to be untrue. No one's going to get their money back," said Bruce Silverglade of the Center for Science in the Public Interest.
It's also unclear if consumers will understand the disclaimer that nuts' benefits are as yet unproven, Silverglade said.

Army Corps refuses to drop Missouri River water levels
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON - The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers refused to reduce water levels on the Missouri River last night, despite orders from a federal judge to cut flows to protect endangered birds and fish.
The corps said the judge's order, issued Saturday, conflicts with a ruling issued last year by a different federal court that requires enough water in the Missouri for barges to navigate and power plants to operate.
"It is impossible to simultaneously comply with the conflicting flow requirements obtained in the two orders," the corps said in a statement issued last night.
Instead, the corps is opening formal talks with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service intended to result in a new "master manual" for the river's flow by next year. A new plan of operations was due last year but was postponed by the Bush administration.
The corps said the administration will ask Congress for $42 million next year to restore the Missouri River ecosystem.
A spokesman for the conservation group American Rivers called the move "too little, too late." A lawsuit by American Rivers and other groups prompted the judge's order for low flows.
"The corps has no intention of changing the master manual or doing anything beneficial for the river," said the spokesman, Chad Smith. "All of these actions are delay tactics ad nauseam."
The U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia on Saturday ordered the low flows to comply with the Endangered Species Act. But the U.S. District Court for the District of Nebraska ruled last year the river must have enough water for barges to navigate and power plants to operate.
At issue is an effort to restore the Missouri to a more natural spring rise and low summer flows to encourage fish spawning and bird nesting by species that are on the federal threatened and endangered lists.

NAACP: Retailers failing to employ enough blacks
The Associated Press
MIAMI BEACH, Fla. — The retail industry did a poor job of hiring and promoting blacks and did little marketing and charitable work for the black community, the NAACP said yesterday.
Retailers got an overall grade of D in a report released at the NAACP's annual convention.
It was the group's first ranking of the sector.
Three retailers — Dillard's, Kohl's department stores and Nordstrom got Fs. Of those three, only Dillard's
The highest grade was a C+, awarded to Wal-Mart.
"It is very obvious that in that industry the time for change is now," said NAACP President Kweisi Mfume. However, he noted most industries did poorly the first year the NAACP ranked them.
responded to the survey.
The report ranked 45 large companies based on employment, marketing procurement, community reinvestment and charitable donations.
Using information from the companies, the survey measured how much the activities involved blacks.
"Retailers are making progress in their diversity efforts," said Scott Krugman, a representative for the National Retail Federation. "We do acknowledge, however, that we do have a long way to go. Unfortunately change doesn't happen overnight."
Nordstrom representative Brooke White said her company couldn't complete the survey within the two weeks required by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
She said Nordstrom was a partner with the civil rights group in black youth programs across the nation.

FIGHT AGAINST AIDS
Research finds safer way to shield infants from HIV
The Associated Press
PARIS New research presented yesterday has raised the possibility of safer breast-feeding by HIV-positive mothers in the developing world, an advance that could save millions of lives.
Programs aimed at preventing mother-to-child transmission of the AIDS virus in poor countries only treat mothers during pregnancy and up to a week after childbirth.
Babies are often given a single dose of an AIDS drug at birth.
That halves the risk of the babies getting HIV, but many of those gains are lost when the infants later contract the virus through breast-feeding.
Experts say findings presented yesterday at an AIDS research conference indicate giving babies a daily AIDS drug from birth through the entire breastfeeding period could significantly reduce the rate of HIV infection through
breast milk.
In the study, conducted in Uganda and Rwanda, 397 infants were given syrup containing one of two common AIDS drugs daily for up to six months.
Only 1 percent of the babies contracted HIV through breast milk.
That compares to a rate of about 15 percent when babies do not receive such treatment, according to lead researcher Joep Lange of the University of Amsterdam Academic Medical Center.
Experts say that if mothers in poor countries received long-term treatment for their HIV, as they do in the developed world, the risk of passing the virus on to their babies through breast milk would be minimal.
"Obviously, it would be much better to (continue to) treat the mothers," said Lange, adding that the treatment of babies is a stop gap until long-term therapy is widely available to everyone in poor countries.
SUSPECTED KIDNAPPING
Former marine says girl safe; thought 12-year-old was 18
The Associated Press
LONDON — Toby Studabaker, the former U.S. Marine who disappeared with a 12-year-old English girl he met over the Internet, has phoned his relatives to say the child was safe and that he was contacting the FBI, his brother said yesterday.
Leo Studabaker told BBC News his brother did not give his location or that of the girl, Shevaun Pennington. Police traced them as far as Charles de Gaulle International Airport near Paris.
Greater Manchester Police said they had not yet been able to confirm that the ex-Marine had been in touch with the FBI, but that police officers were checking.
Leo Studebaker said his 31-year-old brother had been deceived into meeting the girl and that he was "very mad when he found she had lied about her age."
They also said it had been confirmed that Shevaun was not the passenger named Pennington who flew to Liverpool on Saturday from de Gaulle airport, as French police had thought.
"From what I understand, Shevaun had written a letter and signed it for him to give to the authorities clearing him of any wrongdoing," Leo Studebaker said.
The ex-Marine, who spoke to his sister-in-law, Sherry Studabaker, said Toby had contacted the FBI and wanted to resolve the situation.
The girl from Lowton, near Manchester in northern England, left Britain on Saturday with Studabaker, of Constantine, Mich. Authorities said they think the two met over the Internet.
Leo Studabaker of Three Rivers Mich., said his brother thought the girl was at least 18.

HOROSCOPES
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN = 27
If your birthday is this week ...
Ask older colleagues for guidance concerning delicate business politics or emotional triangles in the workplace.Hidden agendas, private permissions and complex assignments may be bothersome over the next nine weeks. Take time to thoroughly complete daily duties and all will be well. After mid-October, social introductions prove surprisingly rewarding.
Aries(March 21 to April 20).
Social charisma will soon increase. Over the next few days, expect friends or lovers to search out your company or ask for special consideration. For some Aries natives, this new wave of public appeal also marks the end of intense business doubts. Long-term business decisions will, however, require extra caution. Remain quiet determined. After Friday, rest and gain perspective.
Taurus (April 21 to May 20).
Friends and lovers may need to explore painful memories or forgotten promises. Sentimentality will soon prove draining. Expect others to linger unnecessarily on difficult family issues. Stay focused and realize that clear boundaries will eventually help define long-term relationships. Thursday through Sunday, avoid vague social or romantic compliments.
Gemini (May 21 to June 21).
Public image and physical appearance are key concerns in business relationships. Over the next few days, work officials will notice your personal
strength and ability to influence others. Don't avoid new duties. This is a strong time for increased career options and favorable job impressions. Later this week, minor digestive or skin ailments may be bothersome. After Saturday, get extra rest, if possible, and explore quiet activities with trusted friends.
Cancer (June 22 to July 22).
Late Tuesday, a relative or family friend requests delicate romantic advice. Sensitive issues involve unethical triangles or unexpected flirtation. New attractions pass without incident, so not to worry. Do, however, avoid strong reactions. Over the next six days, loved ones may feel intensely private about their social activities or public reputation. Emotional reactions are unpredictable.
Leo (July 23 to Aug. 22).
Deep emotions, sudden revelations and intense dream activity may have recently contributed to daily stress. Monday through Wednesday, however, expect sleep patterns and physical vitality to steadily improve.Past family disputes or old memories will also fade.Ask loved ones for clear explanations of their actions or decisions.Late Saturday, search out trusted friends. Stay open.
Virgo (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22).
Short-term contracts demand special dedication in the coming weeks. Late Tuesday, watch for authority figures to request more of your time than usual. For many Virgos, new assignments will introduce
three months of expanding workplace options. Don't hold back. This is a powerful time to impress mentors or potential employers with your talents. Friday through Sunday, romantic communications may be strained.
Libra (Sept.23 to Oct.23).
Over the next four days, social mistakes may prove costly. Late Monday, a friend or colleague needs added group support concerning private romantic flirtations, canceled events or reversed decisions. Don't become entangled. At present, others need to redefine their social or romantic expectations. After midweek, business duties steadily increase. Key officials request completed projects or finalized paperwork. Confusion is likely.
Scorpio (Oct.24 to Nov.21).
Before midweek, family discussions offer vague social promises, partial commitments or unclear financial information. Let loved ones know you are willing to temporarily take control of family duties. Thursday through Saturday, romantic partners or long-term friends demand greater involvement in your private life. Intimacy, sensuality and trust will soon dramatically increase.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21).
Delayed contracts or financial decisions arrive without warning this week. Early Tuesday, authority figures provide valuable information. Watch minor events, comments or workplace strategies for shifting priorities. Wednesday through Saturday, romantic passions are unavoidable. Expect potential lovers to openly express their intentions. Respond honestly and wait for valid promises. New relationships require confident discussions. Don't be shy.
Capricorn (Dec. 22 to Jan. 20).
Early this week, friends and lovers avoid direct social contact or delay important business discussions. No serious or long-term effects can be expected, so not to worry. Do, however, quickly reschedule canceled events and work deadlines. At present, others need extra time to resolve private romantic doubts. You won't be disappointed.
Aquarius (Jan.21 to Feb.19).
Monday through Thursday highlights a steady increase of physical and emotional vitality. Many Aquarians will begin nine weeks of positive job progress and renewed social confidence. Past restrictions need to fade. Refuse to cling to old group ideals or habits. After midweek, a lover or close friend may extend a rare invitation to a family event. Take all new social proposals as a genuine compliment.
Pisces (Feb. 20 to March 20).
Romantic attractions intensify. Over the next three to four days, respond honestly to sentimental overtures and rekindled passions. Single or unattached Pisceans can expect a unique social connection to captivate interest. New forms of study, creative expression and artistic activities may all be involved. Key officials and loved ones may react with criticism or disbelief.

GAY RIGHTS
Democratic forum discusses gay marriage
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Most of the Democrats running for the White House said yesterday that gay couples should have the same legal rights as husbands and wives, but the leading candidates stopped short of supporting homosexuals' right to marry.
The only three candidates who say federal law should protect the right to same-sex marriages are Al Sharpton, former Illinois Sen. Carol Moseley Braun and Rep. Dennis Kucinich of Ohio.Most of the others at a presidential forum sponsored by the Human Rights Campaign back the less controversial right to gay civil unions.
The audience hissed when Sens. Joe Lieberman of Connecticut and John Kerry of Massachusetts said marriage was a right reserved in America for men and women.
Vermont is the only state that has a civil unions law giving gay couples the full legal rights as married couples - a law signed by former Gov. Howard Dean, one of the presidential contenders to address the forum.
"Marriage has a special status in our culture, our society, our history," Lieberman said.
tion, in the absence of marriage.
Under tough questioning from moderator Sam Donaldson, Dean said the distinction of the word "marriage" was the hangup in the states "because marriage has a long, long history as a religious institution."
But Sharpton said simply granting civil unions was a form of discrimination against gays, "like saying we'll give blacks or whites or Latinos the rights to shack up, but not marry."
Dean said civil unions gave gays legal rights, such as health benefits, inheritance, child custody and hospital visita-
Despite the differences over gay marriage, the Democratic presidential candidates agree with most of the policy positions of the Human Rights Campaign,
including support for anti-discrimination laws, hate crimes legislation, increased funding for HIV/AIDS research and treatment and federal domestic partnership benefits.
But the issue of gay marriage is sure to dog the candidates — both the Democrats and Republican President Bush — in next year's election. Elizabeth Birch, executive director of the Human Rights Campaign, said the group also would invite Bush and other Republicans to future forums.
Two of the nine presidential candidates did not appear at the forum, Sens. Bob Graham of Florida and John Edwards of North Carolina.

DANCE
Dance teacher brings allure of Middle East to Lawrence
By Amy Kelly
akelle@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
JoAnne Zingo-Hargis' hips swivel in a snake-like motion. Her hands caress the air delicately, slowly. The combined actions could be mistaken more for a ceremony than a dance rehearsal.
With her brainchild Cairo on the Kaw: The Classics performance approaching on July 19 and 20 at Lawrence Community Theatre, 1501 New Hampshire St., Zingo-Hargis is using every second she can to practice shoulder drops, neck slides and her queen walk.
Since 1995, the Lawrence Parks and Recreation dance instructor has performed the Middle Eastern-themed show that features Raghsidad, a troupe made up of her advanced students.
Stout started taking lessons after seeing Zingo-Hargis at Aladdin's Café and started performing in Cairo on the Kau last year.
Alex Stout, Wichita senior, first saw Zingo-Hargis' troupe perform at Aladdin's Café, 1021 Massachusetts St., two years before joining.
When she tried encouraging others to belly dance, Stout said some students thought it was only for extremely limber individuals.
"Many of them said, 'There's no way I can move my hips like that,'" Stout said. "But it's not hard once you start learning the steps."
The traditional Middle Eastern dance steps will have a twist, literally, this year. Cairo on the Kaw: The Classics will include oldie-but-gooodie moves such as "The Pretzel," "The Wipeout," and "The Monkey."
Most of the performances contain subtle humor, but a show called Saturday Night Live gave birth to the opening number.
Zingo-Hargis' son will play the role of King Tut — a la Steve Martin in 1980.
JoAnne Zingo-Hargis, founder of the Middle Eastern dance troupe Raghssidad, leads her group through a stretching routine in a practice room at the Lawrence Community Building. Raghssidad met yesterday to rehearse for its annual show, Cairo on the Kaw.The show will be held at the Lawrence Community Theatre, 1501 New Hampshire St., on 8 p.m. Saturday and 2 p.m. Sunday.
The Middle Eastern dances still would be the focus, Zingo-Hargis said.
Zach Straus/Kansan
1000
Using the Lawrence Community Theatre to perform Cairo on the Kaw, Zingo-Hargis said she could better expose the
dance form she had practiced for the past 27 years. She said that the number of people who would attend the show was unpredictable. Full house or not, Stout said she knew one person who was coming all the way from Wichita.
"One of my aunts who belly dances is so excited to see me," Stout said. "And I think
she's even going to help me make costumes now."
Tickets are $8 for adults, $6 for students and seniors, $4 for children 6 years and older. Admission is free for children younger than 6. For more information, call 785-842-3010.

DEDICATION
Former senator honored Celebration brings famous faces to town

Kansan staff writer
Yesterday marked two more significant events in former Kansas senator Bob Dole's life. He celebrated his 80th birthday with dignitaries such as Tom Brokaw, Gov. Kathleen Sebelius and former president Jimmy Carter, and he attended the formal dedication of his building, the Robert J.Dole Institute of Politics.
For more information on the dedication of the Dole Institute of Politics, see page 16.
Tom Brokaw enceased the dedication in front of the Dole Institute yesterday morning. He said the dedication and the building were a tribute to "a native son of Kansas and the great political system he
was so proud to be a part of."
Former President Carter took the stage to a standing ovation and spoke to the crowd about the "greatest generation." He said the greatest generation might not be the people who fought in World War II and worked after the war to rebuild the United States, but rather the "greatest generation" were those who preserved peace in America.
The crowd welcomed National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice. Rice, who lives in the same building as Dole and his wife, Elizabeth, in Washington D.C., said
"He never forgot Kansas in his time in D.C.," she said. "You always heard the Kansas in him."
she admired Dole for his foreign policy issues and his respect for Kansas.
Before taking the role as national security adviser, Rice was a provost at Stanford University, the "KU of California," Brokaw said.
As Dole took the stage near the end of the dedication, the crowd stood and applauded the man Robert Norton Sm'th. Dole Institute director, said was the "youngest 80-year-old" he knew.
In the spirit of friendship, Dole pre-

Electrical fire in roof forces local restaurant to close
A fire early Monday morning left Jefferson's Restaurant, 743 Massachusetts St., out of business.
According to a press release, the Lawrence-Douglas County Fire & Medical Department responded to a call for the fire at Jefferson's at 12:15 a.m. Monday. When firefighters arrived, they found smoke coming from the roof, where the fire was mostly contained. Fire crews brought the fire under control by 1:34 a.m.
Mark Bradford, deputy chief for the department, said the cause of the fire was electrical and the restaurant sustained minor smoke and water damage. Bradford estimated the damage to the restaurant was $150,000.
Lawrence Memorial Hospital treated minor injuries of one firefighter and then released him.
Randy Mcintosh,manager at Jefferson's, said the restaurant would have to wait until the restoration company assessed the damage before it determined how long it would be closed.
"It could be two weeks, it could be a month," he said. "We really don't know."
Businesses next to Jefferson's were affected as well.
Sabrina Houseman, an employee at Maurice's, 739 Massachusetts St., said the store closed Monday and yesterday but would be open today.
"There's a little smoke smell," she said.
Houseman said Maurice's would do an ozone treatment to get rid of the smell, then reopen.

Cassidy Yeakel, an employee at The Palace, 8th and Massachusetts St., said the store would not close.
"It kind of smells like smoke," she said.
Yekel said there was a little water dripping in the store, but people were still coming in.

Hi, yeah, to the person who called about why KU is not joining USSA, it's because the USSA is liberal propaganda, even for Lawrence, and it doesn't represent all students, so quit complaining.
For more comments, go to www.kansan.com
I'm one of the many student voters who supported a living wage law for Lawrence in April and still do. Workers deserve this reasonable change. Thank you city commission.
that'd be the most insulting thing in the world if he didn't. He needs to give like $1.50 to $2 tuition decrease to every student who goes to KU. Otherwise, we should all curse him every time we see him.
Hemenway knows he has to give that $50,000 back to the students, right? I mean.
Yeah, this is for the individual who still thinks that tuition increases are financing the construction going on on campus as well as the chancellor's new raise. Wake up, dummy. The construction is funded by the KU Endowment, which has nothing to do with your tuition increases, and the chancellor's new raise came from a private donation from a person known as a philanthropist, which also has nothing to do with your tuition increases. Hard to believe you got into college, let alone stayed here. Have a good day.

STUDENT GOVERNMENT
KU general counsel advises against USSA
By Richard Gintowt
rgintowt@kansan.com
rksan staff writer
An opinion from the University of Kansas's general counsel has stalled and most likely killed a student-approved effort to join the United States Student Association, a student lobbying organization.
In a referendum last April, students approved a mandatory student fee of 50 cents per semester to pay for USSA membership. Of the 3,038 students who voted, 61 percent favored joining.
The USSA lobbies for student interests and organizes and trains students in student government.
Jim Pottorff, general counsel for the University, recommended the University administration not approve the fee because it did not meet the Supreme Court's requirement for viewpoint neutrality, expressed in the 2000 case of Wisconsin v. Southworth.
According to the Supreme Court's opinion, the First Amendment permits a public university to charge its students an activity fee used to fund a program to facilitate extracurricular student speech if the program is viewpoint neutral.
The court discouraged the use of referendums to approve such fees because referendums may not accurately represent majority opinion.
Because of the general counsel's recommendation, Richard Johnson, dean of students, informed Andy Knopp, student body president, that the proposed mandatory fee would not be forwarded to Chancellor Robert Hemenway for approval.
The decision surprised Catherine Bell, KUnited student body vice president.
"We didn't even know the general counsel was reviewing it," Bell said. "I think in everybody's mind it was a done deal."
Bell said Student Senate did not plan to appeal the decision.
The only other way to fund the membership would be through Student Senate's reserve account for activity fees.
Blake Shuart, Student Senate legislative director, said that scenario was unlikely.
The general counsel's decision disappointed student senators like Travis Weller who supported joining the USSA.
"We're losing out on a lot of educational opportunities for students," Weller said.
The general counsel's decision was good news for students who never supported joining, such as Dani Davey, Overland Park senior.
"There's so many students that aren't as liberal as the USSA and they're not getting represented," Davey said.

sented Norton Smith with a plaque, naming him a "true gentleman, scholar, and friend."
Dole also recognized Jack Lucas, a Medal of Honor recipient from Mississippi. Lucas, who fought in World War II, lied about his age and joined the army at age 14.
He was awarded the Medal of Honor at age 17. Monday night, before the USO show, Lucas met Dole and said one of his dreams in life was to meet former president Carter.
Yesterday, Dole brought Lucas up on stage to greet the former president, and after a formal handshake, Lucas gave Carter a big bear hug.
"They're the real reason why we're here," Dole said. "Our ranks may be dwindling, but our memories endure."
Veterans such as Lucas are the men the Dole Institute's dedication is honoring. Dole said.
"To the young who seek information and inspiration," he said. "Never stop reaching for the stars, no matter the difficulties."
He also stressed the importance of the Dole Institute to future students and generations.
The dedication ended with the crowd's lively rendition of "Happy Birthday."

INVESTIGATION
New avenues opened in Martin investigation
By Annie Bernethy
aberneth@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
More charges could be filed in the ongoing investigation of the death of Shannon Martin, a University of Kansas student killed while studying abroad in Golfito, Costa Rica.
Larry Thomas, of the Kansas Bureau of Investigation, and A. Jesse Ybarra, a translator, spent 10 days last month in Costa Rica reviewing evidence and interviewing witnesses who had previously been either overlooked or uncooperative.
Martin
DK-7/16,7/23,8/18
Prosecutors have already charged three people — Kattia Cruz, 27, Rafael "Coco" Zumbado, 52, and Luis Alberto Castro, 32 with killing Martin on May 13, 2001. With the new accusations, more people may be added to the list, Ybarra said, but those names cannot be released yet.
Thomas spent a week preparing for his trip with Ybarra by going through the 700-page case file, which is in Spanish. When
they arrived, the two took a quick lesson in Costa Rican etiquette, learning the customs and courtesies of the culture.
Jeanette Stauffer, Martin's mother, said the help from Thomas and Ybarra had taken a great deal of pressure off of her.
"They're my dream team," she said.
Before Thomas and Ybarra arrived many witnesses had not been interviewed and evidence was overlooked, Stauffer said. She said Thomas' 25 years of investigative experience helped the case tremendously.
Stauffer said the KBI, Thomas, Ybarra and Juan Carlos Arce, her Costa Rican attorney, were doing a great job and making a real difference in the case.
After Stauffer's last trip to Golfito, Costa Rican officials allowed her to participate in legal proceedings surrounding the case, which opened up the doors for her to hire Arce.
Arce can now pick up where Thomas and Ybarra left off, adding to the strength of the case, Ybarra said.
Stauffer said it would be at least another month before a preliminary hearing, after which a trial date would be set.

LAWSUIT
Tenants, landlords sue city over zoning ordinance issue
The Associated Press
LAWRENCE — A group of tenants and landlords have filed a federal lawsuit against the city of Lawrence over an ordinance that reduced how many unrelated people could share a single-family home.
The ordinance, approved by the city commission in December 2000, reduced from four to two the number of unrelated people who could live in a single-family home.
College students claimed the rule would reduce the options for affordable housing.
The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Kansas City, Kan., on Friday, claims the
ordinances are unconstitutional and violate state law.
More than 1,800 houses have been registered under the requirements of the codes.
Two tenants and eight landlords are listed as plaintiffs.
City officials would not comment on the lawsuit yesterday.
Inspections began in February 2002; city officials have used "administrative search warrants" to enter homes when landlords or tenants refused the inspections.
The plaintiffs are seeking more than $75,000 as repayment of the registration fees and for damage payments. A hearing has not been set in the case.

Incoming freshmen at new student orientation might expect to find options about all available residence halls that serve the University of Kansas. But a policy hurdle sits between a private residence hall and the Kansas Union, where many Department of Student Housing staffers dispense information.
Naismith Hall, 1800 Naismith Drive, sits across the University property line and falls under the offcampus housing category. Like other non-University sponsored businesses and student groups, Naismith is not allowed to solicit information at orientation.
Kansas Union staff members called campus police July 11 to escort Jason Olds, Naismith Hall property manager. out of the Union for solicitation of information about his hall.

Kristin Trendel, director of New Student Orientation, said her group had booked the Union for that day. Trendel said if she allowed one business in, she would have to allow them all.
"It's not a matter of being selective, that's just our policy,"Trendel said.
The orientation staff gives businesses, including off-campus housing such as Naismith, the opportunity to place brochures in the hospitality room, Trendel said.
Naismith has advertisements in the Union but doesn't have a permit to advertise during orientation, Olds said.
Olds said he wanted to work with the University in providing outlets for student housing, but the University tended to shy away from promoting any housing but its own.
"I understand the University wants to fill their beds,but at what cost?" Olds said.

Group takes stand against USA PATRIOT Act

Kansan staff writer
The Lawrence Bill of Rights Defense Committee isn't content on just having meetings at the Lawrence Public Library. It wants to take its campaign against the USA PATRIOT Act right up to the Lawrence City Commission.
Hudson Luce, Lawrence resident and committee member, wrote a resolution the committee will present to commissioners in September requiring the Lawrence Police Department not to comply with the act.
It also puts Lawrence on record as wanting the act repealed.
"We don't want this country to turn into
some half-assed banana republic police state," he said.
Luce said he modeled the resolution after similar ones passed in other cities, but said he "put some teeth" into the Lawrence resolution.
The resolution would not allow the police to enforce federal immigration laws and would direct the city manager to publicize how federal authorities used the act against Lawrence residents every six months.
Luce said he didn't know of any residents who had been a target of the act, but said it was important to put the city on record as being opposed to it.
He said commissioners were "sticking their fingers in the wind" to gauge support for the resolution.

"All we're doing in affirming the support for the Constitution and the Bill of Rights," he said. "We're telling the federal government 'no.' The resistance has to come from the people."
Commissioner Dennis "Boog" High-
berger said he had some concerns about the act, but that wasn't enough to warrant passing a resolution that would be largely symbolic.
He said his priorities were in Lawrence development and ensuring affordable housing.
More than 130 cities, towns and counties passed resolutions of varying severity critical of the act, from Greensboro, N.C., to Seattle. Arcata, Calif., became the first city to pass an ordinance that bans the top nine managers of the city from complying with the act.The fine for violating the ordinance is $57.

Edwards Campus adds second hall
Kansas City campus expands to provide for growing enrollment
By Kevin Wiggs
kwiggs@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Soon the University of Kansas Edwards Campus will be just that: a campus.
Construction has begun on Regnier Hall, the second building on the Edwards Campus, in Overland Park, as the satellite location celebrates its 10th anniversary. The building is scheduled to open in the fall 2004 semester, said Elaine Warren, Edwards Campus representative.
The Regents Center building, the campus' original building, is at capacity. Since it opened in 1993, enrollment has increased by 77 percent, Warren said. The new building will allow the Edwards enrollment to double, from 2,000 students to 4,000.
"It's kind of like 'If you build it they will come,'" said Dick Bond, Kansas Board of Regents and Edwards Campus Advisory Board. "Every time we open a new class it fills up."
Warren said the building would cost $17.8 million to build.To finance it,the Victor and Helen Regnier Charitable Foundation donated $3 million,the Hall Family Foundation donated $5 million and the final $9.8 million will be paid through revenue bonds and student fees.
"It's kind of like 'If you build it they will come.'"
Dick Bond
Kansas Board of Regents and Edwards Campus Advisory Board
Regnier Hall will add 82,000 square feet to the current 55,000 square feet of the Regents Center.
The new building will contain 13 classrooms, nine lecture halls, three computer labs, 45 offices for faculty and staff, a 240-seat auditorium and an executive boardroom.
Regnier Hall is the first part of a $70 million expansion plan for the 36-acre campus, approved by the Kansas Board of Regents in September 1999.
Warren said Edwards offers 25 graduate, undergraduate and certificate programs. Regnier Hall will allow that to grow to 40 programs in the next five years.
Most Edwards students are full-time professionals at the graduate level, Bond said.
The building of Regnier Hall will increase the junior- and senior-level courses, but the emphasis will remain on graduate classes.
"It increases the presence of KU in the metro area," Bond said. "It will enhance KU's reputation and ability to serve the state."

SWELTERING SUMMER

Hot weather can cause heat-related illnesses

With triple-digit temperatures becoming a daily occurrence this summer in Kansas, it wouldn't take water to make the Wicked Witch of the West melt.
Zach Straus/Kansan
Last week, temperatures rose over 100 degrees five times, with the mercury rising to 108 degrees on Friday.
Kansas is in the peak of summer and the high temperatures can cause problems, from heat cramps to heat exhaustion and even heat stroke.
Excessive heat exposure caused an average of 400 deaths in the United States per year between 1979 and 1999, according to the Centers for Disease Control.
Most leases end next week, and the roads will be full of moving vans and groups hauling couches, tables and beds to their next home. However, if the weather stays as it is, it will make moving a sweltering ordeal.
Robert Brown, student health physician at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said heat-related illnesses were not common during moving, but were possible if movers over-exerted themselves.
"People who are moving are not usually under time pressure and they don't hesitate to take a break," he said.
Brown said athletes who competed and
pushed themselves in the heat were more likely to suffer the effects of heat-related illnesses.
With the arrival of summer comes the necessity for some to work outdoors.
Construction workers put on their long jeans and face the heat to fix the University.
"Last week was one of the worst in quite a while," said Mark Hanes, a construction worker for 30 years. "We just have to put
up with it."
But Hanes hasn't seen any of his coworkers hospitalized because of the heat.
They start at 7 a.m. and battle the heat until 5:30 p.m. when they get to go home. They have a 30-minute break at noon, but no other scheduled breaks.
Hanes said the bosses were lenient when temperatures were so high.
Workers are free to drink water whenever they need to, and the crew's five-gallon water jug must be filled several times a day.
HEAT ILLNESSES
Heat cramps
Heat exhaustion — occurs when a person feels light-headed or collapses. These cases are usually mild.
Heat stroke —
Body temperature at least 105 degrees
Confusion
Slurred speech
Nausea
Diarrhea
Dizziness
Seizures.
This is a medical emergency and the person should see a doctor.
Treatment of heat-related illnesses -
Stay in a shaded, cool location
Elevate feet
Eat salty foods
Drink fluids with electrolytes, such as sport drinks
Visiting the doctor is necessary only if the person's condition doesn't improve, or if the person's body temperature rises.

Bargain-hunters find deals shoes at Bohl's garage sale

It was a garage sale, but not for your typical crowd of blue-haired old ladies thumbing through stained bell-bottoms and one-eved dolls.

Former Athletics Director Al Bohl's garage sale last Wednesday included a variety of Jayhawk gear he accumulated during his two years at the University of Kansas, such as shirts, warm-ups, hats and iackets.
Al Bohl, former Kansas athletics director, sits with his wife Sherry on one of the last remaining items at their garage sale. The sale started at 7:30 a.m. Wednesday and nearly sold out in 20 minutes.
He and his wife, Sherry, started to set up the sale at 7:30 a.m. and were immediately stormed by fans.
All that was left were some of Sherry's clothes — priced to sell quickly, but not nearly as popular the Jayhawk gear.
"Sherry opened the garage door and there was already a bunch of people here," Al said. "We were just inundated. In about 20 minutes, all the major stuff was sold."
Boxes and bins were empty, ravaged by

"I'm not the guru of garage sales," he said, "but it was unbelievable."
Al said he and his wife were moving to St. Augustine, Fla., where Sherry plans to work as a first-grade teacher. Al said he had not taken another job yet, but didn't want to have the mementos stuffed in his closet in Florida.
"This wasn't about getting any money," Al said. "This was about getting some Jayhawk merchandise into the hands of some good KU people."
Rosemary Pierron, Olathe resident, showed up at noon and was disappointed that nothing was left.
As the mother of five KU graduates, she said she had hoped to add to her modest collection.
Despite that disappointment, many shoppers offered Al parting thanks for his time at the University. Al said the reason for the garage sale was to give back to the
people that made his time at Kansas worthwhile.
But not everyone saw it that way.
An editorial by the Lawrence Journal-World said the goods "could as well have gone to benefit youth groups or other organizations" and that KU fans lost out on having mementos of their Jayhawks.
Kenna Routh, Baldwin City resident,
was satisfied with her purchase. She purchased some of Sherry's clothes that hung on a makeshift clothesline tied to a basketball goal pole.
"Ive lost some weight and could use some new clothes," she said as she left with three shirts, two dresses and a jacket for $1.50.

Owner doesn't buzz station from roster
Radio station perseveres after its listeners petition wage campaign to save it
By Amy Kelly akelle@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
The beat will go on for 96.5 The Buzz.
News came quietly Friday that owner Entercom Communications would not give the alternative music station the boot, but the month leading up to the revelation was a noisy one.
When Entercom, corporate owner of eight Kansas City stations, announced one month ago that a new sports station featuring Jason Whitlock, sports columnist for The Kansas City Star, was in the works, the environment at The Buzz became a bit uneasy.
Because current Federal Communications Commission legislation allows Entercom to own only eight stations in one listening market, the acquisition of a new sports station meant jettisoning another. The Buzz receives only half the ratings of fellow Entercom station 98.9 The Rock making
"The Buzz is the only radio station around town that's even worth a crap. It's happened so many times around here, it's just another punch in the stomach — it's like losing another girlfriend."
Bret Wiedner Overland Park senior
employees wonder if it would be the victim.
"At the time, I thought it was definitely going to be us," Buzz morning DJ Afentra said. "To everybody in the building, we've always been like the red-headed stepchild anyway."
Afentra said she rebuffed Entercom's orders to quit talking about the station getting the boot. She reasoned that the news had already run in The Kansas City Star
and therefore already out in the open.
Not knowing whether they had two hours or 20 days left, the DJs used their airtime to ask for listeners' support.
What happened next could be described as a respectful, yet far-from-quiet uprising of sorts. Listeners e-mailed Entercom's Philadelphia headquarters. Protesters gathered at the J.C. Nichols Memorial Fountain on the Country Club Plaza two weeks ago. Buzz fan Ashley Lathery created an online petition, while DJs created their own petition at remotes.
Mike Kaplan, station manager at the Buzz, said the combined efforts gathered more than 12,000 signatures in the Save the Buzz campaign.
"It's like we won the war," Kaplan said. "It's really because of the passion of the audience that we're still here."
Afentra agreed with Kaplan and said when listeners became vocal, it caused the corporate bosses to pause.
Bob Zuroweste, Entercom manager, said the campaign had a significant influence, but the company never made a formal announcement in the first place stating that The Buzz was in danger.
Bret Wiedner, Overland Park senior said he listened faithfully to The Buzz and stopped by a Lenexa convenience store remote to sign the petition before Entercom announced the station's fate.
"The Buzz is the only radio station around town that's even worth a crap," said Wiedner, who said his previous favorite station, 105.9 The Lazer, was a victim of corporate decisions. "It's happened so many times around here, it's just another punch in the stomach — it's like losing another girlfriend."
Loyal fans don't need to worry for the time being, however. Entercom chose to end 106.5 Smooth Jazz rather than The Buzz.
Even though her station remains, Afentra said she wondered if the same thing would arise six months down the road.
The uncertainty is a bit unsettling for her, but Afentra said she felt grateful for being able to publicly voice her distaste.
"They could have stopped it altogether," Afentra said. "But I think it made them stop, take a peek and maybe really look at the station."

Foam parties popular despite damages,risks
By Amy Kelly
akelle@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
In the party-going world, foam is beginning to mean more than just the head on top of a cool brewski.
Foam parties are considered neo-pool parties with streaming suds and rinsing is discouraged.
This Saturday, Jack Flanigans Bar & Grill, 806 W.24th St., will use its space for the craze that has lathered up people for two decades.
Foam parties flourished in Ibiza, Spain during the 1980s and are still going strong today in European night life.
But now Lawrence clubs have resurrected the trend at clubs such as the Granada Theatre, 1020 Massachusetts St.
Of course, Midwestern foam party novices are working out kinks along the way.
The Granada held its second foam party two weeks ago, attracting about 500 people with only a few days of radio advertising.
Members of Sigma Chi brought the foam machine to the first Granada event, but owner James Radina said he decided to purchase his own equipment, which can cost more than $2,500, for the second party through www.efoamparty.com after positive feedback.
Radina said although he could probably
draw even more people at future foam parties, he wasn't rushing to start planning another one after the water and foam leaked through the Granada's hardwood floors.
"It pretty much ruined our floor both times," said Radina. "But it was nothing compared to what the Insane Clown Posse did to our floors when they played here."
Radina said he thought foam parties were still a fun idea and was planning to sponsor one outdoors.
Even the health issues that have arisen aren't a hindrance to those who have experienced foam parties.
Two years ago in Calgary, Canada, three dozen people at a foam party suffered chemical burns in their eyes from an improperly mixed solution.
Heather Hellman, Wichita junior, stayed in a foam pit for two hours at the Kansas Expo Center in Topeka and did suffer slight chafing, but said it was not an allergic reaction. She likened the sensation to shaving without soap or gel.
Severe cases such as the one in Calgary are rare, however. Foam manufacturers Primetime and FoamMasters touted their foam as non-toxic and non-allergenic.
"Oh, I would definitely go to another one," Hellman said. "I'll just drink a lot of water and moisturize really well before I go next time."

Internet sales tax off to bumpy start
Businesses perplexed as state tries new ways to increase tax revenue
By Richard Gintowt
rgintowt@kansan.com
kansas staff writer
A new state sales tax law created to collect money on Internet sales won't be affecting buyers yet. But one local retailer says the rules are impractical and burdensome.
The Streamlined Sales Tax Project, which went into effect July 1, aims to make catalog and Internet sales subject to state and local taxes.
Under the new law, sales taxes must be assessed at the place where goods change hands.
For businesses that ship to locations throughout the state, that means charging different tax rates for each of the 751 tax jurisdictions in Kansas. Before July 1, businesses charged one rate—the one of
Sharon Reynolds, owner of Broers Flower Shop, 714 Main St., and Owens Flower Shop, 846 Indiana St., said it would be impossible to keep track of every separate tax jurisdiction.
the jurisdiction they were based in.
"I could see if you were a contractor and you had five jobs a month you could figure the taxes separately," she said. "But we sometimes do hundreds of orders a day just think what Mother's Day would be like."
The Kansas Department of Revenue does not yet have a database to match addresses with tax jurisdictions, complicating the situation further. Through its Web site, retailers can match ZIP codes to jurisdictions, but that system breaks down in ZIP codes with multiple tax jurisdictions.
Richard Cram, director of policy and research for the Kansas Department of Revenue, said the current database was "not entirely adequate" and the department of revenue was working on a better one.
Luckily for confused retailers like Reynolds, Governor Kathleen Sebelius sent a letter to merchants informing them that they would not be penalized so long as they were making efforts to comply with the new system.
Ed Mullins, city finance director, said he didn't know whether the new law would raise or lower Lawrence tax revenue.
"We're a long way from gathering tax on every Internet sale," Mullins said. "In the meantime, we certainly have complicated things for retailers in Kansas."
Internet buyers won't have to pay sales tax for out-of-state purchases until Congress passes legislation overturning the case of Quill Corp. v. North Dakota, Cram said.
In that case, the U.S. Supreme Court decided that states could not require out-of-state retailers to pay the taxes unless the retailer had a "physical presence" in the state.

Texas comptroller finds $700 million without a home
AUSTIN, Texas - University of Texas Comptroller Carole Keeton Strayhorn announced Friday that there were more than $700 million in unallocated state funds of which her office was previously unaware.
Strayhorn urged the Legislature to allocate the funds during its special session and emphasized putting the money toward funding health-care services cut during the regular session.
The $702.6 million should be used to help restore more than a billion dollars in cuts made to health care during the regular session, Strayhorn said at a symposium on health care legislation.
Strayhorn said 200,000 people would lose eligibility for Medicaid, and 122,000 would lose eligibility for the Children's Health Insurance Program as a result of the cuts.
"We can partially restore these cuts before critical services are eliminated for needy Texans," she said.

Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer purchases rose 9 percent in the last year. The beer is a top seller at Jensen Liquors,620 9th St., and at the Replay Lounge,946 Massachusetts St., but hasn't found its wav into every liquor store and bar in Lawrence.

On a packed night at the Replay Lounge, the crowd swarms with young college students, townies and an older crowd that doesn't seem to mind all the noise. As the band, Sons of Hercules, plays, Justin Hulsey, a musician from Nashville, Tenn., heads to the bar for his third can of Pabst Blue Ribbon.
"When I come to Lawrence, I drink PBR," Hulsey said. "It just seems like the thing people do here."
According to the numbers, Hulsey might be right.
Tom Morgan, sales manger at Jayhawk Beverage Inc., the company that distributes Pabst Blue Ribbon to Lawrence, said the city had a 9 percent increase in Pabst deliveries during the last year. Morgan said the company distributed 12,000 cases of Pabst to Lawrence in the last six months.
That's an average of 576,000 ounces of Pabst circulating in the city's bars and liquor stores each month.
Neal Stewart, brand manager for Pabst Brewing Company, said he didn't know exact figures on the growth in Lawrence, but the Kansas City area had gone up 22 percent in the last year.
Stewart said the trend started in Portland, Ore., where Pabst is the fifth highest-selling beer, and spread eastward to Lawrence.
The Pabst Brewing Company started making Blue Ribbon in 1844. However, the brew's current appeal here may stem from the difficult-to-define idea of "cool."
Kirk Gullickson, Lawrence resident, said the beer had an appeal with a certain crowd: those who didn't conform to mainstream standards of popular culture.
"Liking things that aren't cool is cool," Gullickson said.
Matt Sully, bartender at The Replay Lounge, 946 Massachusetts St., said the unique crowd at the Replay was drawn to Pabst more than any other beer, especially when the crowd was there to see a show. In October, The Replay Lounge will sell its one-millionth can of Pabst, Sully said.
Five blocks west of Massachusetts Street at Jensen Retail Liquor, 620 W.
Ninth St., Adam Hutchison, Overland Park graduate student, has worked the counter for two years. Hutchison said Pabst was the top-seller at the store. He said when the shipment of Pabst came in on Monday, it stood seven feet tall. By Saturday, the stack would only be a foot and a half. He said that was nearly 150 cases sold in a week.
Hutchison said the $6.15 price of a 12 pack — a little more than 50 cents a can — was a major contributor to the amount of sales at the store.
"The hipsters and indie rockers are heavy hitters on it," Hutchison said.
The beer has a cult following, Hutchison said, but the following is not exclusive to hipsters.
At It's Brother's Bar and Grill, 1105 Massachusetts St., Mike Combs, Stilwell senior, said only one guy ever asked for Pabst at the bar. Combs said he lived at the Theta Chi house and occasionally he saw someone there drinking Pabst, but he would rather drink Natural Light if he were going to drink an inexpensive beer.
"Pabst isn't bad for the price," Combs said. "It's a good chugging beer."

Westport businesses enact $1 cover charge to enter area
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Westport business owners want to appeal to older patrons and reduce the crowds of teenagers who like to hang out in the busy
entertainment district.
A $1 cover charge will be required to enter the neighborhood after 10 p.m. on Saturdays, and only those 21 or older will be allowed in because vendors sell beer on the sidewalks.
"Frankly, if you're not 21, it's probably not a good idea to be in Westport late in the evening, whether it's Monday or a weekend night," said James Westphal, president of Promote Westport Inc., a coalition of bar and restaurant owners responsible
for the cover charge.
The cover charge might be extended to Friday nights. Bar owners reported business as usual last weekend, the first Saturday with the cover charge, though the streets and sidewalks were less crowded.

CONSUMER ISSUES
Supermarket can legally sell expired products
By Caleb Loong
editor@kansan.com
Special to the Kansan
During his two and a half years in Lawrence, Arthur Au Yeung, Hong Kong senior, has seldom shopped at the Oriental Supermarket, 711 W.23rd St., despite the fact the it is the only grocery store in Lawrence that targets Asians.
Au Yeung prefers to run his Asian errands in Kansas City instead of Lawrence because Asian food stores in Kansas City provide greater selection. But an even bigger reason keeps Au Yeung shopping in Kansas City.
"Most of the food products being sold in the Oriental Market are expired," Au Yeung said.
For this simple reason, he is willing to drive an additional 45 minutes to get his Asian foods and spices.
A considerable number of KU students from Asia don't shop in Lawrence because of the Oriental Supermarket's reputation of selling expired products.
Ananh Manixai, the owner of Oriental Supermarket, said his store had no problem selling goods before they expired, because the food products were imported weekly from Asia.
Although the Kansas Department of Health and Environment dispatches surveyors to inspect the store annually, the
There is no such violation in the state of Kansas. Grocery stores don't violate any existing laws, rules or regulations if it sells expired products.
surveyors have never filed any problems regarding selling expired food.
The Kansas Department of Health and Environment is responsible for protecting the health of Kansas consumers by inspecting food servers and retailers. Every year, the department dispatches "food, drug and lodging surveyors throughout the state to different food service establishments, retail food stores, food manufacturing facilities and lodging facilities to conduct unannounced inspections involving food or drugs.
According to the Health Department, the duties of the surveyors include collecting evidence and evaluating food safety factors in regulated facilities for compliance with established laws, rules and regulations. If it discovers violations, the surveyors establish time periods for the correction of the violations and provide educational guidance to operators regarding food safety. Typically, the store must correct any violations within ten days, unless otherwise stated. Failure to correct such violations may result in license suspension, license revocation or civil penalty.
"Customers don't like to buy expired stuff unless you let them know that its short dated or out-of-date. Then it is okay to sell it."
"The duties performed by surveyors are

specific to protecting the health of consumers in Kansas," said Sharon Watson Public Information Director for Kansas Department of Health and Environment. "The goal of the inspection is to determine compliance with the food safety standards of Kansas."
"The expiration dates on foods, with the exception of baby food and eggs, is done voluntarily by industry and for the purpose of quality and batch control," she said.
In other words, neither federal or state laws require food products to be dated.
The surveyors can only report a violation when the product has apparently gone rotten, but otherwise, the surveyors cannot charge anyone by simply reading the expiration date printed on food packages, Watson said. The surveyors only check for items with inspections required by the state. Selling expired food is not a
violation of Kansas health codes.
Although there are no standards regarding expired food for grocery stores to follow, most stores perform its own inspections on food items, and expired food is disposed of when spotted.
Jim Lewis, the owner of Checkers Foods, 2300 Louisiana St., said when food products arrived at his store, it went out in a short period of time, and nothing stayed in the supermarket for long.
Checkers also has its own system for checking for expired products. Employees who stock the food check the expiration dates, and remove any expired product.
"Customers don't like to buy expired stuff unless you let them know that its short dated or out-of-date," Lewis said. "Then it is okay to sell it."
Expired food products could be easily spotted on the shelves. When asked why his store had expired products, Manixai said, "We will exchange our expired products."

Customers can check the expiration date printed on the package before deciding whether to buy the product. But that is the only protection customers have, because it's perfectly legal for stores to sell expired products.
FEDERAL COURT
Judge rules Army Corps Engineers in contempt
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON - A federal judge held the Army Corps of Engineers in contempt yesterday for refusing to lower Missouri River water levels to protect endangered birds and fish.
U. S. District Judge Gladys Kessler ordered the corps and the secretary of the Army to comply by Friday or pay half a million dollars for each day the corps refuses to comply.
She said she may consider "more draconian contempt remedies" if flow is not cut by July 31.
The corps has refused to follow her order to cut the flow, beginning last week, on the lower Missouri River through Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas and Missouri.
The agency said the order conflicts with an earlier Nebraska federal court ruling requiring enough water for barge shipping and power generation.
Kessler ordered the corps to reduce water levels when she granted an injunction July 12 to conservation groups suing the corps to alter the Missouri's flow. Kessler conceded that "a conflict may exist" between the rulings, although she said her analysis provides enough discretion for water to drop below the depth needed for navigation.
The groups want the Missouri to ebb and flow as it did before it was dammed and channeled decades ago to provide constant depths for barge shipping and other uses.
The goal is to encourage spawning and
nesting to help sturgeon and shorebird species on the government's threatened and endangered lists.
Barge and farming interests say the corps has an obligation to provide enough water for barge shipments.
The reductions in Kessler's order would halt navigation on the Missouri, dropping depths at Kansas City, Mo., from about 14 feet to eight feet too shallow for barges carrying grain and other cargo to the Mississippi River at St. Louis.
Justice Department lawyers representing the corps sought emergency stays last week that were rejected by Kessler and the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia.
"Moving to stay an order does not represent a good faith effort to comply with
that order," Kessler wrote. "Rather, it represents an effort to postpone compliance with that order in the hope that it will be overturned on appeal."
The next option would be to request an emergency stay from Supreme Court Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist.
The corps has not revised the master manual since 1979, before the least tern, piping plover and pallid sturgeon were listed as threatened and endangered under the Endangered Species Act, one of the nation's most potent environmental laws.
When the agency announced last week it would refuse to comply with Kessler's order, it also announced plans to complete master manual revisions by next year.

FEDERAL FUNDING
AmeriCorps volunteers lobby for more money
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON - With up to 22,000 volunteer jobs at risk, AmeriCorps workers from around the country urged Congress yesterday to add $100 million to the agency's budget to preserve programs that help low-income children and families.
Standing across from the Capitol, a Roman Catholic nun from New York, a former volunteer from Nebraska, a program director from Tennessee and a Peace Corps volunteer-turned-legislator had stories to tell about the families they've counseled, the abused children they've mentored, the communities they've served.
The cuts, they said, would devastate them.
In Memphis, Michael Warr will have to drop 220 families from his home visitation program at the Porter-Leath Children's Center. Sister Mary Johnice Rzadkiewicz wondered who will take food to the homebound in Buffalo, N.Y., or give a helping hand to the homeless.
And in Bridgeport, Conn., Robert Francis will be forced to cut his staff of 55 AmeriCorps volunteers in his community organization down to 25, which he fears might be too few to run his Safe Neighborhood Partnership program with those few workers.
"Who will suffer now with these cutbacks?" said Sister Rzadkiewicz, who founded the Response to Love Center, a home for the needy in Buffalo. "The elderly, the homebound, the children, the poor—we can't let this happen," she said.
According to figures released by Ameri-Corps providers this week, states will lose an average of 54 percent of their volunteer
workers if the additional money is not approved.
The House Appropriations Committee defeated a move Monday to add $100 million to the program this year, but lawmakers hinted that the money might be restored during House and Senate conference negotiations on a disaster relief bill. The Senate included the AmeriCorps funding in its version of the disaster bill.
Some House members have been unhappy with the national service agency because of widespread mismanagement and the tendency to recruit thousands more volunteers than it can afford. President Bush endorsed the program and added money to his proposed 2004 budget to increase the number of volunteers.
Yesterday, Rep. Harold Ford, (D-Tennessee), said the money increase probably was a lost cause with GOP House leaders. But, he said, "the president can solve this. If the president says, 'I want this to happen,' it will happen."
Republican Rep. Christopher Shays of Connecticut, told the crowd of AmeriCorps advocates that simple audit problems should not tear down such a valuable program.
"Because some people have screwed up, we're going to kill this program? I don't think so. I don't think that's wise." said Shays, a former Peace Corps volunteer.
Forty-three governors sent a letter to Bush this week saying the cuts will "damage, if not destroy" programs that states and communities rely on.
AmeriCorps volunteers receive small stipends for the service, along with a scholarship of almost $5,000 to use for college or to pay off student loans.

Shawnee votes to approve selling of liquor on Sundays
LAWRENCE
WASHINGTON
LONDON
SEOUL
MONROVIA
TOPEKA(AP]— Shawnee County is the latest community in Kansas to permit Sunday liquor sales,and the city of Topeka could take up the issue next month.
County commissioners approved a resolution allowing liquor stores to open from noon to 7 p.m. Sundays, starting Oct.5. The resolution would apply outside Topeka and other cities in the county.
Meanwhile, Topeka City Council member Jeff Preisner said he planned to place a proposed ordinance allowing Sunday sales on the council's agenda in August.
Kansas law bans Sunday sales of packaged liquor, but last year a Wyandotte County District Court judge ruled the law was not uniform, allowing cities and counties to "opt out" of some provisions. His decision permitted Sunday sales in Wyandotte County.
Drug probation ineffective in preserving respect for law
JUNCTION CITY (AP) Sentencing trends in Kansas are not strict enough to prevent most drug offenders from breaking the law again, prosecutors and law enforcement officials say.
Because of prison overcrowding and budget cuts, many drug offenders receive probation instead of prison time. However, some officials are skeptical that probation has an impact on the offenders.
Drug crimes in Kansas are sentenced using a grid that matches the severity of an offense with a punishment. The grid can determine whether drug offenders receive probation or prison, but on inbetween cases, called "border box" cases, a judge decides the punishment, said David Platt, Eighth Judicial District Judge for Geary County.
First-time possession of marijuana is a Class A misdemeanor, which usually results in probation for a convicted offender. A second offense is a Level Four felony, which often leads to another probation sentence. However, subsequent offenses are not charged differently.
Most drug offenses do not carry mandatory prison sentences under Kansas law and marijuana offenses rarely result in prison time.
Pregnant woman's murderer to receive life imprisonment
KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP)—A Kansas City, Mo., man who killed a pregnant woman and the father of her three children will serve life in prison instead of
being put to death.
A Wyandotte County jury could not decide Monday whether 29-year-old Christopher M. Trotter should get the death penalty or a life prison term. A judge earlier had told jurors that if they couldn't reach a unanimous decision, he would sentence Trotter to life.
The same jury last week found Trotter guilty of capital murder for killing Traylenea Huff, 28, of Kansas City, Kan., and first-degree murder for killing James Darnell Wallace, 30, who lived with Huff.
The jury concluded that Trotter shot the couple in a May 21, 2001, botched robbery at their home.
Trotter faces life in prison for each murder and will not be eligible for parole for 25 or 50 years, depending on whether the judge rules that the sentences should be concurrent or consecutive.
Prisoner escapes from police during ride to medical facility
DODGE CITY (AP) — A prisoner who escaped after attacking a sheriff's deputy who was taking him to see a doctor during the weekend remained at large yesterday.
The prisoner was riding in the front seat with the deputy at the time of the attack.
Manuel Delavara-Leon, 44, escaped from the deputy's patrol car that stopped at a Dodge City intersection late Saturday afternoon. James Lane, Ford County Undersheriff, said the deputy suffered bumps and bruises in the attack, but did not require treatment. The deputy's name had not been released, Lane said because the incident was under internal investigation.
Delavara-Leon, also known as Jose Ricardo Garcia-Lopez or Salazar, was being held on a parole violation. He had told officers he was sick and needed to
see a doctor, Lane said.
"I can't say that he faked an illness to get out of the jail because I don't know." Lane said. "I guess you could suppose that."

Study shows fish consumption fights Alzheimer's symptoms
CHICAGO (AP) — Older people who eat fish at least once a week may cut their risk of Alzheimer's by more than half, a study suggests.
The study adds to the evidence that diet may affect a person's chances of developing the mind-robbing disease that affects 4 million Americans.
Researchers found that people 65 and older who had fish once a week had a 60 percent lower risk of Alzheimer's than those who never or rarely ate fish. The meals included tuna sandwiches, fishsticks and shellfish; the amounts eaten were not specified.
"This is very promising, but it's very early and really we need to have a lot more studies," said lead researcher Dr. Martha Clare Morris of Chicago's Rush Presbyterian-St. Luke's Medical Center.
The study involved 815 Chicago residents 65 and older. Follow-up tests nearly four years later found that 131 participants had developed Alzheimer's.
The study was published Monday in the Archives of Neurology. It was funded by the National Institutes of Health.
Internet users falling victim to identity, credit card thefts
WASHINGTON (AP] — Stealing identities and credit card numbers with bogus e-mail and Web sites that appeared to come from legitimate companies was an increasing problem on the Internet, federal officials warned Monday.
The Federal Trade Commission said it had brought its first case against this type of scheme, called "spoofing" or "carding." A 17-year-old California boy accused of posing as America Online agreed to settle federal charges by accepting a lifetime ban on sending junk e-mail and paying a $3,500 fine, the FTC said.
The FBI had received increasing numbers of complaints about this kind of scam, said Keith Lourdeau, a section chief with the bureau's Cyber Division.
"Due in part to this growing scam, we are seeing a rise in identity theft, credit card fraud and other Internet frauds," Lourdeau said at a news conference with officials from the FTC and EarthLink. Officialsaid they didn't know how many people have been victimized by the scam.
Americans held by Libya sue government for torture
WASHINGTON (AP) — Two Americans who spent nearly four months in a Libyan prison in 1980 could move forward with a lawsuit accusing the Libyan government of torture, a federal judge ruled Monday.
Frey and Price were working for a Libyan company in 1980 when they were arrested and charged with "anti-revolutionary propaganda" for taking pictures of places in and around Tripoli.
At the same time, U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth dismissed allegations that Roger Frey and Michael Price were taken hostage because Libyan officials never demanded anything from a third party in exchange for their release.
They were imprisoned for 105 days while awaiting trial and claim they were forced to watch as other prisoners were beaten, then threatened with the same fate unless they confessed to being spies. After their acquittal, they were allowed to leave the country.
POW Lynch returns home; welcomed by family, friends
ELIZABETH, W.Va. (AP) — Former POW Jessica Lynch returned home aboard an Army helicopter yesterday for an expected hero's welcome, nearly four months after she was ambushed by Iraqi forces and later rescued from a hospital.
The helicopter landed in Elizabeth at 1:56 p.m. after flying over Lynch's residence in nearby Palestine, a tiny town in the rolling green hills of West Virginia. The 20-year-old Army supply clerk, severely injured in an ambush in Iraq in March, left Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington at about 10:30 a.m. the hospital said.

Saddam's two sons killed; White House praises troops
The Associated Press
MOSUL, Iraq — Saddam Hussein's sons Odai and Qusai died in a blaze of gunfire and rockets yesterday, the U.S. military said, claiming their deaths will blunt Iraqi resistance to the American occupation.
Acting on a tip from an Iraqi informant, U.S. forces mounted a six-hour operation in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul, Lt. Gen. Ricardo Sanchez told reporters in Baghdad.
Four coalition soldiers were wounded and two other Iraqis were killed in the raid, but Saddam was not among them. The house belonged to a Saddam cousin, a tribal leader in the region.
"We are certain that Odai and Qusai were killed today," Sanchez said. "The bodies were in such a condition where you could identify them."
Both Odai (pronounced oh-DEYE) and Qusai (pronounced koh-SEYE) ranked second only to their father in the deposed regime.
They were Nos. 2 and 3 on the U.S. list of 55 top former Iraqi officials wanted by Washington.
The United States had offered a $25 million reward for information leading to Saddam's capture and $15 million
"We are certain that Odai and Qusai were killed today."
Lt. Gen. Ricardo Sanchez United States armed forces
each for his sons.
Qusai was probably intended as Saddam's successor, according to U.S. intelligence officials.
He ran much of Iraq's security apparatus, controlling several militias, internal security services and the military forces of the once-vaunted Republican Guard.
Odai controlled Saddam's Fedayeen, the paramilitary force that fought U.S. troops during the war. Many of its survivors are thought to be part of the guerrilla campaign in Iraq.
Odai also controlled information and propaganda, and was chairman of the country's Olympic committee.
The White House applauded the action.
"Over the period of many years, these two individuals were responsible for countless atrocities committed against the Iraqi people and they can no longer cast a shadow of hate on Iraq," it said in a statement.
Lynch was to make brief public remarks from a wheelchair in a park minutes after the arrival —her first public words since her ordeal.
The hospital issued a statement by Lynch in which she thanked the medical team who cared for her.
"I also thank all the well-wishers for all their cards, letters, banners and posters," Lynch's statement said. "These really raised my spirits and kept me going."
Newborn baby's toe cut off accidentally during delivery
ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — A hospital employee accidentally cut off part of a newborn baby's toe while trying to remove a security tag, a hospital spokesman said yesterday.
Doctors reattached the part and were waiting to see if it healed properly, family members said.
Amirona Simmons was about to be released from Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children & Women on Monday when a
hospital worker said she "nipped" the girl's baby toe, according to the girl's mother, Sheketa Simmons.
"When I looked, her toe was cut all the way off," Simmons said.
"It is a very unfortunate accident and we regret that it happened," Brown said. "We're evaluating the course of action of what happened."
Hospital spokesman Joe Brown said only the tip of the middle toe was cut off.
N.Y. police receive funding following Sept.11 attacks
NEWYORK (AP)—In the nearly two years since the World Trade Center attack, the New York Police Department has posted detectives overseas, taught officers exotic languages and acquired a mobile lab to detect chemical or biological attacks—all of it courtesy of Pfizer, Motorola and other donors.

INTERNATIONAL Liberian rebels seek cease-fire following week's bloody battle
MONROVIA, Liberia (AP) — Rebels announced a cease-fire as West African defense chiefs tried yesterday to work out quick deployment of a peacekeeping force, a day after mortars rained onto Liberia's wartorn capital in the worst fighting in months.
Despite the cease-fire order, government and rebel fighters continued to trade machine-gun and grenade fire near two strategic bridges connecting Monrovia's port and downtown — the symbolic heart of the country and the site of President Charles Taylor's offices.
There was also sporadic shelling downtown, with one round striking near the heavily fortified U.S. Embassy compound.
Still piled out in the street in front of the embassy were bodies, lying under plastic sheeting, killed during a furious mortar barrage the day before and dragged there by Liberians furious that American forces have not come to their rescue.
Liberians ventured from their homes to search for food and water. Defense Minister Daniel Chea said Monday's death toll was well over 600 people, after what appeared to be the bloodiest clashes in the past two months of the rebel push to oust Taylor.
Fire erupts in Eiffel tower; cause yet to be determined
PARIS (AP) — A fire broke out on a top level of the Eiffel Tower yesterday, sending smoke pouring from the 1,069-foot Paris landmark.
The cause of the fire was not immediately known, the company that operates the tower said. The blaze appeared to be in an area inaccessible to tourists, on one of the three topmost levels of the tower.
Officials said they were not sure whether anyone was on the top level, where the fire appeared to have erupted. There were no immediate reports of injuries.
The best-known monument in Europe, the iron-laced Eiffel Tower has had more than 200 million visitors since it opened at the Paris Exhibition in 1889. It draws 6 million visitors a year, making it the world's most popular paying tourist attraction.
Tourists can reach the third level of the tower by elevator, and there are restaurants on the first two levels.
South Korean president denies North Korean nuclear activity
SEOUL, South Korea (AP)—South Korea's president on Monday dismissed a report that North Korea had secretly built another plutonium production plant and expressed concern that such media accounts could hurt his country's economy.
Meanwhile, a senior South Korean official predicted a possible breakthrough in the nuclear standoff, saying the United States, China and North Korea will hold talks in Beijing "quite soon."
The nations were "in the final stage of arranging a new meeting," said Ra Jongil, President Roh Moo-hyun's national security adviser.
Quoting unnamed U.S. and Asian officials with access to the latest intelligence on North Korea, the New York Times reported Sunday that strong evidence had emerged in recent weeks that the communist state had built a second secret plant for plutonium, a key material for nuclear bombs.
Roh was told by aides Monday that the Times report was "low in reliability," said Kim Man-soo, Roh's deputy spokesman.
"The president expressed concern about the phenomenon of unclear and groundless media reports throwing cold water on our economy," Kim said.
British prime minister awaits scientist suicide investigation
LONDON (AP) — Prime Minister Tony Blair said he would take full responsibility if an inquiry finds the government contributed to the suicide of scientist David Kelly, who was identified Sunday by the British Broadcasting Corp. as its main source in accusing the government of hyping weapons evidence to justify war in Iraq.
Blair, dogged on his trip through east Asia by angry charges about the Ministry of Defense adviser's death, said he had no intention of resigning over the dispute, as some critics at home had demanded.
He welcomed the BBC's announcement, which temporarily shifted the angriest public criticism from his administration to the broadcaster, whose credibility came under attack.
"In the end, the government is my responsibility and I can assure you the judge will be able to get to what facts, what people, what papers he wants," Blair told Sky News.

Rain and thunder didn't deter visitors from viewing the "Salute to Heroes: An Evening to Remember" outside the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics Monday night.
The event featured former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, Winston Churchill's great-grandson Duncan Sandys, former President Jimmy Carter, Sens. Nancy Kassebaum Baker, George McGovern and Elizabeth Dole and NBC anchor Tom Brokaw.
Giuliani kicked off the first half of the event with jokes about former U.S. Sen. Bob Dole and, on a more serious note, comments about what a momentous occasion the weekend's events represented not only for Dole, but for everyone.
"Bob Dole represents you and what you've all contributed," Giuliani said.
Giuliani's speech was followed by a World War II slide show. Sandys read letters between Churchill and his wife, Clementine, sent during World War II.
"At the end of the day we came together by a binding love for Kansas and Kansans."
Nancy Kassebaum Baker Kansas senator
Kassebaum Baker told the crowd how Dole never twisted her arm on a vote, no matter how much she and the senator disagreed on an issue.
After the war stories from Sandys and Carter, various U.S. Senators took the stage to honor Dole.
Carter also read letters he had written to his parents and his wife while he was aboard the USS Pomfret during the war.
"At the end of the day we came together by a binding love for Kansas and Kansans," she said.
Sen. George McGovern, Dole's greatest adversary when they were in office, said he expected "great things from the Dole Institute."

The first half of the event ended with Tom Brokaw's salute to the "Greatest Generation," veterans and widows of World War II.
"You've spent a lifetime working for the United States of America and the free world," he said.
The second half of the event allowed Dole and other dignitaries to kick off their shoes for some good, old USO-style fun.
The Kansas City Chorus of Sweet Adelines serenaded the audience and Dole with 1940s music, including, "Thanks for the Memories" and "Swing, Swing, Swing."
praised Dole for his worthy deeds and hard work.

Veterans recount war memories with pride
By Maggie Newcomer
mnewcomer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Cheers thundered inside the World War II Memory Tent for the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics' dedication last weekend; loud enough to drown out the portable air conditioners and remind the speakers why they're considered the "greatest generation."
Four Lawrence veterans, all 70-plus years old, sat on stage surrounded by technologies, such as big screen televisions, that didn't exist when they went to war. All had an air of pride, apparent from the American flag on Claudine "Scottie" Lingelbach's shirt, knowing they had served their country well.
Lingelbach, Charles Wright, Bob Sudlow and John "Buck" Newsom, shared their war experiences with the crowd Saturday evening outside the Lied Center.
Wright, who served in the U.S. Marine Corps, warmed up the crowd, filled mostly with senior citizens, with a few jokes.
Wright and Lingelbach are childhood friends from Topeka. The two attended the University of Kansas with Sudlow, who Wright affectionately referred to as "Suds." Newsom attended Duke University.
All four veterans said they had pleasant memories of the war, rather than gruesome recollections.
Wright, the most colorful of the speakers, said he chose to go from Chicago to San Francisco for his first posting because he knew the train would go through Omaha, Neb. He said this way, he'd have a chance to see his bride-to-be on the way.
"It'll be 59 years this September," Wright said.
Wright served in a medical unit in the Pacific. He said the first operation he saw was a memorable one.
He told the story of an unconscious soldier who had wedged match sticks in his penis in a last-ditch attempt to keep an erection while drunkenly trying to have sex.
Wright said he wasn't sure whether the effort was effective.
Lingelbach enlisted in the selective Women Accepted for Voluntary Emergency Service. She spent the early 1940s in Washington delivering top-secret papers to different branches of government.
"I probably knew more about the fighting than my husband, who was actually doing the fighting," Lingelbach said.
She chose the WAVES because they required members to have a college degree, which her parents would appreciate, she said.
Sudlow was an aspiring artist when he decided to join the Jayhawk Squadron, a U.S. Navy class of 23, all of whom trained at the University. He was told to gain eight pounds before he could enlist.
Sudlow spent his time in the Navy doing air rescues in the Pacific. And not the air rescues we see today, he said. For each rescue he landed a lumbering seaplane in the ocean and took off again, as quickly as possible, he said.
Sudlow had the chance to visit Tokyo immediately after V-J Day, Aug. 6, 1945. He compared the city to the Kansas City,
Mo., Country Club Plaza turned upside down.
"Total chaos," he said.
Newsom also served in the Navy and was stationed in the Pacific. He praised President Harry S. Truman for his decision to drop atom bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan and said it probably saved his life.
"I am here today talking to you all because President Truman had the courage to make that decision," Newsom said.
The veterans spoke as much about the courage and sacrifice of those they served with as their own sacrifices.
Lingelbach said when news spread around the country that the war was over there was a lot of kissing in the streets between strangers.
"You were so thankful if your loved one was coming home," Lingelbach said. "Because so many others were not ever coming home."

Veterans recall memories of campus during war

Bill Tuttle, American Studies professor, listens as Claudine "Scottie" Lingelbach speaks about her experiences in the U.S. Navy during World War II at the KU Goes to War presentation at the Lied Center. Lingelbach, who told her story on Sunday, was interviewed by Tom Brokaw for his book The Greatest Generation.

Some came to the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics KU Goes to War program to get out of the 100 degree heat; others came to hear about the changes the University of Kansas and its students went through during World War II.
Veterans, alumni, family, friends and a handful of KU students attended the event Sunday afternoon.
Twenty-three veterans surrounded the Lied Center stage as Bill Kurtis, KU alum and television broadcaster, moderated a discussion between three veterans and Bill Tuttle, American studies professor.
Tuttle began the discussion with a history of the University during the war. He spoke of "flashbulb memories," or moments in history when people remember everything.
Dec. 7, 1941, the day the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, was one of those moments for KU students, Tuttle said. Many students were opposed to the war
before the bombing of Pearl Harbor, he said, but after two University students lost
their lives there, attitudes changed.
As the war progressed, Tuttle said, the
number of servicemen on campus increased.
The University enacted a trimester system to allow students and servicemen to complete their degrees in two-and-a-half years, instead of four.
Claudine "Scottie" Lingelbach was one of those students. A 1944 graduate, Lingelbach decided during her junior year that she wanted to be "more than a pin-up girl" and joined the Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Service immediately after college, working in Washington with top-secret documents.
Lingelbach told the crowd about her "flashbulb moment" on December 7, when she was at Watson Library studying. That day was a defining moment in her life, she said.
The third speaker, Richard Schiefelbusch, flew as a navigator on a B-24 bomber in the war.
He said during the war he had the need to help others.
"On bases and in the field," he said,

LEGACY: Dole, Giuliani encourage students to vote, get involved CONTINUED FROM PAGE 16
Gov. Kathleen Sebelius and former President Jimmy Carter joined Dole and Giuliani at a news conference before the dinner.
The leaders were presented with University of Kansas baseball caps and Families of Freedom Jayhawk T-shirts, which raised more than $50,000 for the victims of Sept. 11.
Dole, a KU alum, said the Dole Institute might inspire students to vote and get involved in politics.
"We're not going to turn the world around at the University of Kansas." Dole said. "But maybe we can make a dent."
Giuliani said the epidemic of young people not voting in the United States was a problem of education,not politics.
He said the Dole Institute could help students understand how politics work, so they could understand the importance of voting.
Former President Gerald Ford was
scheduled to attend the dedication and dinner, but couldn't because of health problems.
Ford and Dole earned the Republican presidential and vice presidential nominations and ran against Carter, a democrat, in the 1976 election.
Carter and Dole said they had "great admiration" for each other even though they were former opponents.

WAR: WWII naval officer honored by friend in 'KU's finest hour'
"I tried to be a friend, a useful person."
After he left combat, Schiefelbusch came to the University. When asked what he wanted to study, Schiefelbusch said he "wanted to learn how to help people." He majored in clinical speech and psychology and founded the Speech-Language-Hearing Clinic in 1949. After 35 years as the director of the clinic, it was renamed The Schiefelbusch Institute for Life Span Studies.
The final speaker, John "Buck" Newsom, was a naval science professor at the
University after the war. One of his most vivid memories from the war included a fellow naval officer, Doug Payne, who spent four years during the war dedicated to one ship, the USS Hopkins.
In a tribute to the 23 veterans on the stage with the presenters, an emotional Newsom saluted them and all the other "Doug Paynes" in the building.
As the crowd applauded Newsom and the other presenters, Chancellor Robert Hemenway took the stage, calling the
event "one of KU's finest hours."
Jackie Bates, Hoisington senior, and Elizabeth Gralton, Brookfield, Wis., junior, attended the event on advice from the marines staying in Templin Hall.
"They made us aware of how big and how special an event like this is," Gralton said. "And how incredible it is that all of these people are here in the same area to share their experiences with us."

State Fair visitors to enjoy air-conditioned food court
HUTCHINSON — Visitors to this year's Kansas State Fair might want to carry something they would usually leave behind: a long-sleeved shirt
Eleven longtime food vendors are being moved into permanent quarters in the old Commercial Building.
About $4 million has been spent to renovate and air-condition both Cottonwood Court and the Domestic Arts building
"What really excites us is that we were able to take two very historic buildings and restore them and improve them inside and out," said state fair General Manager Denny Stoecklein.
For this year's fair, which runs Sept. 5 to 14, the building will offer seating for up to 1,000 diners at a time.
There will still be dozens of other food vendors on the fairgrounds.
But open space and cool air will make for pleasant eating in Cottonwood Court.

WILLIAMS FUND
Fans upset with fee; graduate files lawsuit
By Saju Ng'alla
snglaa@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Loyalty motivated the Williams Fund to force 121 season-ticket holders to pay $5,000 or risk losing their premium seats loyalty to the student athletes at the University of Kansas.
Jay Hinrichs, director of the Williams Fund, made those statements. He is credited with creating the plan to bring members who had let their donations slip over the years up to par and recruit new members.
The plan has generated ill will toward the Williams Fund, especially from KU basketball fans who have supported the program since the early days of Allen Fieldhouse, when the Athletics Department struggled to fill the building.
The plan has also generated a lawsuit.
Hinrichs would not comment directly on the Athletics Department's loyalty to the fans. He said his loyalty was to the student athletes who benefit from the scholarships the fund generates.
"My job here is to raise $5.5 million dollars for the student athletes to make sure that their academic needs are provided for," Hinrichs said.
The Williams Fund is not named after former men's basketball coach Roy Williams. It was founded by Odd Williams in 1949 as the Outland Club. It was renamed for the Williams family in 1973. The fund holds money from private donors for athletic scholarships.
Allen Fieldhouse has 6,000 premium seats with a market value of $10,000 each. Hinrichs said.
"All we are doing is asking people to pay 50 percent of the market value of those seats," Hinrichs said. If they are unable to make the payment, the Williams Fund will offer ticket holders less-preferable seats in the Fieldhouse, he said.
"It is important to note that nobody is losing their seats here. We are not throwing anybody out of Allen Fieldhouse and nor are we going to move anybody way back into the roof," Hinrichs said.
Hinrichs, who worked with the Kansas City Royals for 17 years, said the season-ticket holders would still be given preferred seating, they just wouldn't be premium seats.
That option is not good enough, said Brock Snyder, a Topeka lawyer and 1957 KU graduate.
Snyder, who has been a ticket holder for more than 40 years, received a letter from the Williams Fund asking him to call the office concerning his account. When he called, Snyder was told he had fallen behind on his donations and he would have to pay $5,000 to keep his seat.
"And that was my warning," Snyder said. "I was given no choice and no one attempted to do anything reasonable."
Snyder challenged the plan in a lawsuit.
Snyder said he was not a member of the Williams Fund and was not required to make donations.

ATHLETICS DEPARTMENT
Associate athletics director leaves Kansas, seeks new career
The Associated Press
LAWRENCE — Associate athletics director Janelle Martin has become the latest high-ranking figure in the University of Kansas Athletics Department to leave.
The Jayhawks announced yesterday that Martin, the associate athletics director for compliance and senior women's administrator, took administrative leave Sunday and plans to resign Sept.30.
The department has been in flux since
April, when Al Bohl, former athletics director, was fired and Roy Williams, former men's basketball coach, left for North Carolina in the same week. A. Drue Jennings filled in as interim athletics director until Lew Perkins left Connecticut to join
the Jayhawks on June 10.
"Martin) indicated that the arrival of a new athletics director presented her with the opportunity to explore a new direction with her career," the University said in a release.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 21
According to Snyder, the money paid to the Williams Fund has now become a season-ticket fee and is wrongly enforced between ticket holders.
Snyder said that violated the equal protection laws.
The lawsuits states, "The dramatic increase in the fee for the season tickets is arbitrary and capricious and results in the unlawful taking of property by a state agency."
Hinrichs said premium seats should be reserved only for contributors to the Williams Fund.
"If you are sitting in the premium section, you want to know that the person sitting next to you is helping as much as you are to support KU athletics," Hinrichs said.
Hinrichs said 29 accounts were still unresolved.
Ticket holders have until July 31 to decide whether to pay the $5,000 or lose their premium seats.
The lawsuit hearing will start at 10 a.m. Friday at the Douglas County District Court.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL
Clemons leaves team following chain of troubles
COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) Missouri permanently dismissed basketball player Ricky Clemons from the team yesterday, ending his troubled tenure with the Tigers that included a guilty plea to misdemeanor assault and a severe accident near the home of the university president.
Clemons originally faced felony second-degree domestic assault charges after he was accused of choking a woman and holding her against her will at his apartment in January.
He pleaded guilty in April to reduced charges of misdemeanor third-degree assault and false imprisonment, and was sentenced to 60 days in jail.
He was also suspended from the basketball team for one year.
But on the night of July 4, Clemons was hurt in an all-terrain vehicle accident near the home of University of Missouri system President Elson Floyd.
Clemons suffered fractured ribs, a punctured lung, a serious laceration to
his chin and head in the accident.
Self calls reported violations gesture of team's compliance
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — To new Kansas coach Bill Self, it's almost a point of pride that during his three seasons at Illinois the school reported 20 minor violations to the NCAA.
The minor, or secondary, violations surrounding the program were reported Sunday by the St. Louis Post- Dispatch.
Because they didn't give the school a recruiting or competitive advantage, Illinois faced no sanctions.
Self, speaking Monday at the Great Plains APSE sports editors meeting, said the fact there were so many violations speaks to the strength of the compliance program at Illinois and not to any lack of institutional control.
"If you're not turning yourself in for secondary violations, your compliance program is not very good," Self said. "Everybody commits secondary violations. Everybody."
Illinois has four full-time staffers in its compliance office keeping tabs on its coaches, three more than at some
other schools where Self has coached Kansas hired Self in April after former coach Roy Williams left for North Carolina.
FOOTBALI
Heisman Trophy winner quits Packers before first workout
GREEN BAY, WIS. (AP) Eric Crouch has quit the NFL for the second time in 11 months.
The 2001 Heisman Trophy winner from Nebraska left the Green Bay Packers on the eve of full-squad workouts, which began yesterday.
He had hoped to win a job as one of Brett Favre's backups but coach Mike Sherman said he had little chance at beating out the three QBs ahead of him in that race.
Crouch sat out last season after the St. Louis Rams drafted him in the third round and tried to convert him into a wide receiver.
He was set to play quarterback in the Canadian Football League, which he thought could be a springboard to a career as an NFL quarterback, when the Packers claimed him off waivers this spring.

HOMICIDE INVESTIGATION
Police search gravel pit for Baylor player's body
The Associated Press
WACO, Texas — Investigators on foot and horseback searched a gravel pit near the Brazos River yesterday for the body of Baylor basketball player Patrick Dennehy, who police believe was killed by a former teammate.
The teammate, Carlton Dotson, was charged with murder Monday in Chestertown, Md., near his hometown. He was ordered held without bail yesterday, and his attorneys said they would oppose his transfer to Texas.
The search for the body was centered just miles from the Baptist university where Dotson and Dennehy were on the basketball team last season. Waco police Sgt. Ryan Holt said no body had been found late yesterday.
The search began Monday night after Dotson spent about two hours with authorities in Maryland, where he lives.
Dotson, 21, admitted to FBI agents that he shot Dennehy in the head "because Patrick had tried to shoot him," according to an arrest warrant released yesterday.
Outside the Chestertown courthouse Monday, Dotson told a reporter: "I didn't confess to anything."
Defense attorney Grady Irvin said he
had not spoken to Dotson since his arrest. He said he would examine the arrest warrant to see if any comments Dotson made in recent weeks were included.
"If it is, there is a significant likelihood that his competency to make those statements are in question," Irvin said yesterday.
Dennehy, 21, was last seen on campus June 12, and his family reported him missing June 19. The next day, Waco police said an informant reported that Dotson told someone he shot Dennehy in the head after the two argued.
Dotson was seen on June 12 in the Texas hometown of his estranged wife, driving Dennehy's Chevrolet Tahoe, the warrant said. The vehicle was found abandoned, without license plates, in Virginia on June 25.
Dotson went to Chestertown, about 55 miles from his hometown of Hurlock, Md., on Sunday and called 911, Chestertown Police Chief Walter T. Coryell said. When officers arrived, Dotson told them he "needed counseling" and was hearing voices, Coryell said.
Dennehy's stepfather and mother, Brian and Valorie Brabazon, have said Dennehy was threatened shortly before his disappearance and reported the threats to his coaches.
NFLFOOTBALL
Kansas City quarterback focuses on improvement
The Associated Press
RIVER FALLS, Wis. — Quarterback Trent Green is trying to put a stop to all the talk at Chiefs' training camp about the team's playoff potential or the possibility of making the Super Bowl.
Green said the team needs to stay focused on improving in practice each day. The only game Green thinks the Chiefs should be looking at is the first one.
His warning: Not so fast.
"That's a lot of big talk early on," said Green, who is in his 10th year in the
NFL. "We're only in the fourth practice Our most important thing should be winning on Sept. 7 against San Diego. It's not only the opener, and not only a conference opponent, but a division opponent. And everybody knows, based on the new system, the division games are your most important. So let's focus in on beating San Diego and then we'll go from there."
Green is as excited as the rest of his teammates about the team's potential, but he said any talk during training camp of making the playoffs is premature.

New Web mail services block spam, pesky ads
Believe it or not, there are other Web mail options besides Yahoo and Hotmail. Staci had the opportunity to review and test the Oddpost Web mail Service, which effectively blocks spam, and Tim tried out Hushmail, which is known for keeping the user's identity secure. Use our reviews to decide whether switching to a different Web mail provider is right for you.
So if you are concerned about privacy and use a PC, then you should probably give Hushmail a shot.
GEEK SPEAK
Tim's review of Hushmail (www.hushmail.com)
Staci's review of Oddpost (www.oddpost.com)
As a person with a marketing bent, I was impressed with the unique service and experience offered by Hushmail. The company definitely identified its customer base and appeals to those looking for Web anonymity. The notion of protecting your privacy is evident even in the sign-up process. I was impressed with the option that can generate your e-mail automatically. Even more impressive was the process of signature generation: By simply tracking the movements of your mouse, a unique and random signature is created.
Because Hushmail did such a good job serving the security- phile, it also alienated other potential Web mail users. Users not familiar with encryption and using public keys to verify senders and receivers of their messages and attachments will find the process cumbersome and/or relatively useless. Another drawback to Hushmail is that it is not compatible with Macs.
In a quest for a less intrusive e-mail application, I signed up for a 30-day trial with Oddpost. Today, 28 days later, I am a proud to say I have oddpost.com address.
For starters, Oddpost has no annoying ads, its user interface is simple and straightforward—even a bit humorous.
Oddpost is the spaminator. Its spamblocking system uses Bayesian filtering, a statistical analysis technique that is able to consistently deliver about 99 percent accuracy. Bayesian filtering works because it adjusts to what I personally consider spam.
For $30 a year I get nothing but good, clean Web-based e-mail with 50 megabytes of storage.
I know something free always seems

like a better deal. But remember what dad said — "You get what you pay for." If you don't spend money on your Web mail service, you can expect to pay with your sanity by swimming through an ocean of annoying advertisements and choking on thousands of junk mail messages.
Come on, give Oddpost a chance. Oddpost offers more, but don't take my word for it: sign-up for a trial account and see if you aren't wooed by its sleek and simple interface.

Italian antipasto stimulates senses
EAT THIS

Christina DiGiacomo
cdigiacomo@kansan.com
What could be the most refreshing and fulfilling meal on any hot summer day? An antipasto.
An Italian dish like this Antipasto Composto is sure to please any crowd. Served on rustic bread with fresh black olives and a variety of meats and cheeses—what's not to like?
Christina Digiacomo/Kansan
Antipasto, the Italian word for hors d'oeuvres, or appetizers, doesn't typically concentrate on foods like nachos, Buffalo wings and mozzarella sticks. Instead antipasto focuses on a variety of wonderful fares like breaded and fried zucchini called zucchini fritti. Salads, or insalatas are usually included in antipasto, as well as dishes mussels, clams and
Just as Italians like antipasto before a meal, Americans as well enjoy an array of appetizers. Yet at times, Americans solely like the hors d'oeuvres to be the center attraction in a meal.
In Italy, however, ordering only an antipasto and not a pasta secondi (entree), or piatto forte (strong plate), is seen as rude. Antipasto is meant to arouse the taste buds for the servings thereafter, so not ordering a meal after the antipasto is seen as an insult.
A typical Italian meal usually has four to seven courses and lasts for hours on end. The point of enduring such a long meal is because each dish brings equilibrium to the body, thus making a person feel not so full at the end of a meal.
fresh shrimp touched with a hint of garlic in a white wine cream sauce for only $8.95.
Or try one of my favorite dishes, Melanzane Othello. This dish features ricotta cheese filled with thin eggplant slices, simmered with a roasted red tomato sauce and blanketed with fresh mozzarella cheese, for only $6.95.
So next time you feel like Italian, why not venture off to a restaurant like Jasper's, 1201 W. 103rd St., Kansas City, Mo.?
Jasper's offers antipasto dishes like Scampi Alla Livornese. This dish features
Simplistic or intricate, trying any antipasto is guaranteed to excite your taste buds and stimulate your senses. Plus, antipasto dishes are always much cheaper and do not include the extra six servings of a true Italian feast.
But for that night in, try this wonderful and simple Antipasto Composto, a mixed-appetizer with all kinds of flavorful meats and cheeses. Go ahead, mangia, (eat) mangia (eat) and enjoy!

Master chocolatier savors sweet taste of success
The Associated Press
KILCHBERG, Switzerland — Hans Geller has the dream job. He's paid to eat Swiss chocolate.
As master chocolatier with Lindt & Spruengli, Geller has spent every working day for the past 40 years developing and sampling premium chocolate bars, balls, batons, bunnies and any other sweet delights that roll off the production lines.
"I have never had the feeling that I can't look at another chocolate bar," he says, patting his trim stomach to illustrate that he's no glutton, and passionately evoking the pleasures of fine dark chocolate with a

brandy or cup of strong coffee.
Even for unrepentant chocoholics, the smell of chocolate and the scale of production is overpowering. Mighty machines devour huge quantities of cocoa mass, sugar and cocoa butter, milk powder and a secret mix of spices. It then churns them out in a thick liquid mass to be refined, frozen, molded and aerated depending on the final product.
The factory operates 24 hours a day in the peak July, August and September period preparing for the Christmas market.
Workers are allowed to help themselves provided they respect strict hygiene rules. Strikingly, almost nobody is obese.

months, you really don't feel like eating too much chocolate," says Bernhard Winzeler, a manager. Almost simultaneously he plucks his favorite praline from the conveyor belt and pops it in his mouth.
Geller, the taster, has lost track of how many chocolate bars he has sampled. He and his fellow-tasters arrive for work at 7

That doesn't prevent him from nibbling in his spare time.

HOROSCOPES
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN = 27
If your birthday is this week ...
New friendships may be briefly scattered or disappointing. Over the next 10 weeks, long-term social or romantic promises will require detailed clarity. Before October, expect fast reversals or complex emotional triangles between loved ones. Oct. 23 to Nov. 19 also highlight home improvements. After Feb. 26, job advancement arrives without warning. Watch for sudden staff changes or business permissions. Career ambition will be permanently renewed in 2004.
Aries (March 21 to April 20).
Co-workers and business associates may be moody or secretive this week. Allow minor conflicts to pass without taking action. After Wednesday, disjointed communications begin to fade. Stay positive. Early this weekend social disagreements demand attention. Potential lovers trigger rare social controversies. Remain diplomatic and ask for clearly defined terms.
Taurus (April 21 to May 20).
Avoid straining the lower back or shoulders this week. Over the next five days, some Taureans may be prone to small accidents. Minor aches in the side or abdomen are also accented. Not to worry, however, on a spiritual level this is merely an indication that leisure time needs to be more effectively balanced.
Gemini (May 21 to June 21).
Before midweek, close friends will ask for your
suggestions concerning a difficult office triangle or social misunderstanding. More may be going on under the surface than anticipated. Remain quietly detached and wait for added confirmation. After Friday, romantic relationships may also be affected. Expect scattered information and suddenly canceled plans.
Cancer (June 22 to July 22).
Financial miscalculations demand clarification. Over the next three days, verify all instructions and legal records before committing extra time. After Tuesday, silent tensions between friends may be unavoidable. Negative attitudes are not the cause, so not to worry; rather, a period of workplace isolation and productivity may be necessary.
Leo (July 23 to Aug. 22).
Early Monday marks the beginning of a brief but intense period of job improvements and small work projects. Watch new information closely and expect fresh business obligations to arrive in the very near future. Some Leos may also encounter a sharp increase in financial settlements or contractual agreements. After midweek, friends and lovers request delicate social or romantic advice.
Virgo (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22).
Early this week, revised workplace methods and new procedures are needed. Although co-workers and business partners may not ask for help,
your assistance will be appreciated. After Friday, new friendship and interesting social information is highlighted. Remain cautious, however, and expect rare romantic triangles. Ethical choices may soon demand careful thought.
Libra (Sept. 23 to Oct. 23).
Friendships will not present easy choices this week. At the moment, loved ones are focused on the past and unwilling to accept positive change. Avoid the attitudes and fears of others, if possible. Your support and approval may not be as crucial as anticipated. Competing values may soon require unexpected decisions.
Scorpio (Oct. 24 to Nov. 22).
Over the next four days, business messages or unique proposals trigger controversy. Opportunities in research, mathematics, technology or information systems may create rare workplace competitions. Many Scorpios will soon be asked to accept new responsibility and increased authority. If so, watch legal permissions and expect small factual details to be easily mistaken.
Sagittarius (Nov. 23 to Dec. 20).
This week, your ability to influence vital decisions is on the rise. Confidence and acceptance in the business community may be powerful themes over the next few weeks. Lasting improvement will be assured through small steps. Watch for a minor business encounter to
offer opportunity or signal the initial stages of rapid expansion. Stay focused and expect sudden reversals or minor disagreements.
Capricorn (Dec. 21 to Jan. 20).
New friends arrive without warning. Over the next 14 days, previously shy or distant colleagues propose controversial partnerships. Especially promising are property agreements, real estate contracts or land development. After Thursday, record all ideas, facts or observations. Detailed research will soon enable important progress. Friday through Sunday accent minor family disputes.
Aquarius (Jan. 21 to Feb. 19).
Before Wednesday, business and financial hunches prove accurate. Some Aquarians may also find that reluctant co-workers now adopt a previously dismissed plan of action. If so, don't gloat; rather, reassure others of your willingness to assist. Social conflicts from the past may be repeated. Challenge friends or lovers to accept fresh ideas for family expansion.
Pisces (Feb. 20 to March 20).
Romantic discussions are draining over the next few days. Expect lovers or close friends to express subtle doubts or ask probing questions. Remain patient and spend extra time with loved ones, if possible. Public commitment to friendship and shared goals will soon prove invaluable.

Clinton says Bush's mistake was understandable
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON - President Bush's erroneous reference to an Iraqi-Africa uranium link was understandable, former President Clinton said yesterday, in part because Saddam Hussein's regime had not accounted for some weapons by the time Clinton ended his term in 2001.
Clinton's comments reinforce one of the pillars of Bush's defense of the war in Iraq — that his Democratic predecessor was never satisfied that Saddam had rid himself of weapons of mass destruction.
"When I left office, there was a substantial amount of biological and chemical
material unaccounted for," Clinton said on CNN's Larry King Live.
Clinton said he never found out whether a U.S.-British bombing campaign he ordered in 1998 ended Saddam's capability of producing chemical and biological weapons. "We might have gotten it all, we might have gotten half of it, we might have gotten none of it," he said.
His administration says it now believes
In his State of the Union speech in February justifying the planned war in Iraq. Bush referred to British intelligence reports that Saddam had tried to purchase uranium for nuclear weapons production.
"When I left office, there was a substantial amount of biological and chemical material unaccounted for."
Bill Clinton Former United States president
those reports were based in part on forged documents.
Clinton confined his remarks to biological and chemical weapons, and did not say whether he would consider credible any report that Saddam had
wanted to build a nuclear weapons program.
Nonetheless, he suggested that Bush's mistake was par for the course — and that it was time to move on now that Bush had acknowledged the error.
"You know, everybody makes mistakes when they are president," he said. "I mean, you can't make as many calls as you have to without messing up once in a while."
Clinton said ending tensions in Iraq should be the priority now.
Clinton made his remarks as a call-in guest on a program observing the 80th birthday of Bob Dole, his rival for the White House in 1996.
