For one hour on Friday, the Kansas Union became a stage when Queens and Allies presented the annual Brown Bag Drag Show.
"Everyone here always looks forward to it and it's important for members of the Queer and Allies community to support one another." Pror said.
The show has been one of the most popular events during Pride Week for the last 13 years, said Jonathan Pryor, Columbus junior and officer in Queers and Allies. A large contingent of students soaked up both the sun and the six entertainers dressed up in a number of different outfits.
The performers strutted around the stage lip-synching, giving tame strip teases and dancing while interacting with the audience. Some members of the audience offered money to the entertainers during their performance.
The entertainers impersonated a number of celebrities, including Ella Fitzgerald and Judy Garland, while others paraded around to several current Top 40 songs.

"The drag shows display a combination of dominance and power," Herrman said. "I have been coming to all of them since that first one and I love them."
Representatives from Queers and Allies accepted donations for their organization and gave "Fine by Me" T-shirts to people who pledged $10 or more at the end of the performance.

After losing her father to an alcohol-related shooting accident, losing her brother to an alcohol-related murder and losing her virginity to a drunken man when she was passed out, Lisa Tiger found out she had contracted HIV.
She has been infected with HIV for the past 18 years, but you wouldn't know it from looking at her tall frame, physically fit body, pretty face and long, black hair. That was exactly her point, as she said she used to think to herself, "Just don't have sex with the

High school years
Her father was a famous artist, able to make a living when most Native American artists couldn't. After he accidentally shot himself in the head under the influence of alcohol when she was young, her mother started an art business to keep his work known.
In high school, she was active in ballet, tap dancing and was an arm-wrestling champion. She also successfully graduated high school a virgin because of a bet she made with a friend. After high school, she began drinking alcohol and partying because the legal drinking
age was 18. She lost her virginity when a drunken man had sex with her when she was passed out at a party. She then decided to stop drinking.
"That was the loneliest year of my life," she said about her sobriety. She said she felt she had lost her identity when she stopped drinking, and she wished she had known about Alcoholics Anonymous at the time.
After she was sober she worked for her mother's company, making T-shirts with her father's paintings on them, and she spent the rest of her time doing aerobics. The only thing left that she wanted in her life was a relationship.

Bruce Ringwood appeared in Douglas County District Court in Lawrence on Friday on a felony charge of aggravated battery. The charges stem from a fight with his roommate earlier this month.
PETER MILLAN
After his court appearance, Ringwood. Blue Springs, Mo., sophomore, said he was still on the KU football team; however, KU football coach Mark Mangino announced Saturday that Ringwood is no longer a member of the KU football team.
"I've informed him that it's in his best interest and ours for him to look for another opportunity." Bruce Ringwood
Mangino said. "We assisting him right now, trying to help him with Division II opportunities."
Last month's incident is not the first time the former football player has been arrested. Ringwood was charged with assault after a fight at a Kenny Chesney concert in Kansas City, Mo., that injured a Shawnee woman.
The Lawrence Police Department has not released the roommate's name, but according to the police report the victim suffered severe lacerations and other minor injuries. The police report did not indicate the use of any weapon.

Glaser said that the performance was "awful," and consuming too much beer while forgetting her punch lines did not help the situation. A young lady sitting in the front row, her arms crossed with an expression of disgust on her face, looked right at Glaser and loudly said, "She's not funny!"
Trapped underneath the hot lights of the stage in a dark and dreary Topeka establishment called the Double Deuce, Nikki Glaser performed her stand-up comedy for the first time in an actual comedy club. The crowd sat in total silence and patiently waited for the young comic to stumble across something funny.

"I usually end up calling my parents or friends, telling them that the set was so awesome, or I end up asking them what the hell am I doing with my life," Glaser said. "Comedy is really bipolar."
Glaser has been performing comedy at open mic and amateur nights throughout Kansas and Missouri for the last four years. She started training in St. Louis by attending classes to help her improve her comedy routine. She performs one to seven times a week.

April 3, 1917 - About 150 KU students and Lawrence women established a chapter of the Red Cross at the University of Kansas. The establishment of the chapter was an effort to have women learn and practice vital skills for the war effort. The United States entered World War II just three days later.

While KU men were leaving to join the National Guard, women learned skills that could launch them into a career at a military hospital. After only a month, there were 531 KU students and faculty participating in the Red Cross chapter. More joined the Lawrence chapter after the class at KU was closed due to the overwhelming amount of interested students. No members had any obligation to serve in the war, although many did. The students and faculty members participated in everything from rolling bandages to advanced first-aid training.
KU Chancellor Frank Strong said, "Seventy-five women students are engaged in bandage work; and two hundred fourteen members of the faculty have joined the local Red Cross Society in Lawrence."
She oversaw the Red Cross chapter and organized classes in stenography, first aid, food conservation and home nursing. Under her supervision the University of Kansas women produced 15,000 bandages and compresses and raised over $3,000 for the Red Cross.
Margaret Lynn, associate professor of English at KU, was appointed supervisor of the program in 1918
The University Daily Kansan said, "The women of the University of Kansas are preparing to do their bit in the war." The headline in the Kansan read, "WOMEN RESPOND TO CALL."
April 8,1970-Abbie Hoffman spoke to 8,000 KU students in Allen Field House; during his speech he called a college degree, "useless." The "cultural revolutionary," spoke at the University during the student strike protesting the Kansas Board of Regents decision not to promote two professors.
Hoffman said, "People have really got to make up their minds that they are going to destroy the University, if they accept the students' role, they accept the role of slave."
The student strike protested the denied promotions of law professor Lawrence Velvel and acting professor of speech and drama Frederic Litto. Hoffman used professor Velvel as an example of the consequences of using free speech. Velvel had not been promoted because of a speech he had given to protesters about the "Chicago 7" trial involving Hoffman. Litto had not been promoted because of his participation in a controversial play called "Kaleidoscope."
During Hoffman's speech, he blew his nose on an American flag and said, "The first thing a dying dinosaur empire does is to try to devour its young. America is a dying empire and its institutions are crumbling." He added, "We are living for the revolution and dying for it."
Hoffman, a graduate of Brandeis University, began as a civil rights advocate in 1964. He went on to protest the Vietnam war in 1968 in Chicago and the CIAs recruitment of students in the 1980s. He served prison time for drug trafficking, had three children and was married twice. He committed suicide in April of 1989.

"I couldn't believe how many people recognized me," he said.
FOND DU LAC, Wis. —The record-setting consumer of Big Mac sandwiches couldn't stump a television panel on the new "I've Got A Secret" show, but Don Gorske says he got a surprise on his trip to the West Coast for the taping.

STATE Lake asks to serve time in Northeast prison
TOPEKA — Former Weststar executive Douglas Lake, convicted of helping to loot the utility company, has asked a judge to allow him to be imprisoned at a minimum-security prison in the Northeast.
Lake, who is from New Canaan, Conn., filed the motion Saturday, a day after a federal judge rejected his and co-defendant David Wittig's request for a new trial. They are scheduled to be sentenced Monday.
The two men were convicted in September of looting millions of dollars from Westar Energy while they were the company's top executives.
In Saturday motion, Lake's attorneys asked U.S. District Court Judge Julie Robinson to waive a federal classification so he could be housed in a minimum federal security facility if she sentences him to more than 10 years in prison.
The minimum security prisons have the lowest security level. A sentence of more than 10 years usually requires a prison with a low security rating, which is more restrictive.
Lake's attorneys say he isn't a threat to the community, or a risk to escape or to be violent.
They did not specify which minimum-security prison they preferred, but asked that it be one closest to Lake's wife, two children and their families.
Lake also has asked to remain free on bond while he appeals his convictions. Robinson has not ruled on that request.
Wittig has already asked to be housed at the Federal Medical Center at Ayer, Mass.

Continued from 1A Relationships
She dated a man for three years in her first adult sexual relationship, during which she lost her younger brother, Chris, to an alcohol-related murder. She said she couldn't get over the pain as fast as her boyfriend expected her to, and they broke up.
Years later, she saw him and he looked thin and sick. She asked him if he had AIDS or any other disease, but he didn't say. At that point, one of her gay male friends said that he had been involved with her ex-boyfriend. She remembered that HIV was easily transferred among gay men because anal sex is the highest-risk sexual activity to transmit the disease. She got tested and thought nothing of it. She said she got tested just to be safe and wasn't
that worried, until the results came back positive.
She vowed from that day on she would stop being sad about her brother and live the rest of her life to the fullest, and she has ever since. She has adopted four children, gotten married and had a child of her own with the aid of artificial insemination and used AIDS drugs to prevent passing the disease to her baby.
She has dedicated her life to AIDS prevention as well by traveling to all of the 50 states to speak to youth about her own experiences. She also sends the message that AIDS is not a disease for only gay men. It's also not only for people who are promiscuous.
She said she almost died during her pregnancy because it weakened her immune system, but she has recovered to spread her message further.
"I don't sleep around," she said. "If you have this disease, don't be ashamed of it. Live your life."
"Her message is about empowerment because she's a feminist," said Gregory Mansfield, coordinator for education and outreach for the Douglas County AIDS Project.
Tiger said, "My job is to prevent you from getting this disease. You are going to get an STD if you have unprotected sex."
With all of the knowledge about HIV transmission and all of the free testing and condoms from places like the Douglas County AIDS Project, she said there's no excuse for having unprotected sex.
"If you're having unprotected sex,you're stupid," she said.

Glaser recently auditioned for the NBC show "Last Comic Standing." When asked about the audition, Glaser smiled and said that she could not mention any specifics regarding the reality show.
"Watch NBC in June," she said.
Glaser describes her comedy as an offensive, raunchy, edgy blend that has sometimes brought her negative attention from people in the audience. After a show in St. Louis where she cracked a disparaging joke about JonBenet Ramsey, a relative of Ramsey's confronted Glaser in a bar
Glaser's friend Lara Holley, St. Louis senior, said she had been friends with Glaser since sixth grade and that Glaser has always been funny.
"She is definitely the funniest person I know. She does a lot of shows out in Kansas City and does a great job." Holley said.
Glaser knew her friends' opinions, but she needed confirmation from someone else. She will start to seek opinions from club owners.
"People can tell you that you're funny, but until you start working you have no proof of being funny," she said. "No one is going to ask you to work if you suck."
Glaser plans on graduating in May with a degree in English, but has no intention of pursuing a career in anything but comedy. Although there is not much financial security in the world of comedy, it is her passion and what she wants to do with her life, she said.
"I basically perform for free because the pay is not good and until you make it there is no money. But there is no comparison between working a career in English and comedy," she said. "I am almost fluent in English and I proud of that."
Getting booed off a stage is an occupational hazard, but the rush of performing in front of an audience is what brings Glaser back to stage.
"The best thing is when people acknowledge that you are funny. The rush you get when you kill on stage is the best," she said.

Helicopter crash kills two Iraqi bodies also found
BY ROBERT H. REID THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BAGHDAD, Iraq — The U.S. military said Sunday that the bodies of two American pilots killed when their Apache helicopter crashed near Baghdad were recovered and the aircraft was probably shot down. Three other U.S. soldiers were reported killed in Baghdad and northern Iraq.
The AH-64D Apache Longbow went down about 5:30 p.m. Saturday during combat operations west of Youssifyah, about 10 miles southwest of Baghdad, the U.S. command said.
"The soldiers' remains were recovered following aircraft recovery operations at the crash site" of the helicopter "which went down due to possible hostile fire," the statement said.
In political developments, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and British Foreign Secretary Jack Straw made a surprise visit to press Iraqi politicians to speed up the formation of the government. The trip came as Prime Minister Ibrahim al-Jaafari faced mounting pressure from his fellow Shiites to withdraw his nomination for a second term.
No further details were released on the helicopter crash, but Yousififyah is located in the "triangle of death," a religiously mixed area notorious for attacks by Sunni extremists against Shites traveling between Baghdad and religious shrines south of the capital.
It was the first loss of a U.S. helicopter since three of them crashed in a 10-day period in January, killing a total of 18 American military personnel. At least two of those helicopters were shot down.
The U.S. command also said three more soldiers had been killed — two by a roadside bomb late Saturday in central Baghdad and another from non-hostile related injuries suffered
near the northern city of Kirkuk on the same day.
The five U.S. deaths brought to at least 2,333 the number of American service members killed since the Iraq war started in March 2003, according to an Associated Press count.
In Ramadi, an insurgent stronghold 70 miles west of Baghdad, a roadside bomb exploded Sunday near a U.S. convoy, blowing parts of a vehicle onto the roof of a nearby building. No U.S. casualties were reported, but witnesses said men danced around the wreckage, chanting "God is great."

months of the Iraq war for American forces. Thirty-one American service members died during March, the lowest monthly death toll for the U.S. military since February 2004.
However, about 400 Iraqi died, many in violence between Shite and Sunni Muslims that escalated following the Feb. 22 bombing of a Shiite shrine in Samarra that triggered a wave of reprisal attacks against Sunni mosques and clerics.
The rise in sectarian violence has added new urgency to the need to form a government of national unity following the Dec. 15 national elections to prevent the country from disintegrating into chaos.
Underscoring the problem, the bodies of at least 42 men — handcuffed and shot in the head or chest — were found over the weekend in several neighborhoods of the Iraqi capital, police Maj. Falah al-Mohammedawi

said Sundav.
Sunni and Kurdish politicians blame much of the impasse on the decision by the dominant Shiite bloc to nominate al-Jaafari for a second term. Critics maintain al-Jaafari was ineffective in combatting the Sunni led-insurgency and curbing sectarian tensions.
Rice was careful to say the U.S. did not want to interfere in the democratic process, but she harped on al-Jafari's failure to organize a unity government.
Shite legislator Jalal Eddin al-Sagheer also said Sunday that the prime minister no longer had the acceptance of Iraqi parties and the international community and should step aside.
U. S. officials have made little effort to conceal their desire that al-Jaafari leave office because of his close ties and strong backing from radical Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr.
"There is no other way out of the government formation problem," said al-Sagheer, a member of the United Iraqi Alliance and of SCIRI, the largest Shiite political organization. Further delays could "lead to more blood-shed." he added.
Qassim Dawoud, who became the first Shiite politician to publicly call for al-Jaafari to step aside, warned of "a political and security vacuum."
Shites politician get first crack at the prime minister's job because they are the largest bloc in parliament.
A week ago, Shiite officials said U.S. Ambassador Zalmay Khalilzad brought a letter from President Bush objecting to a second term for al-Jaafari to a meeting with the Abdul-Aziz al-Hakim, leader of the Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution in Iraq.

Nicotine fights chemotherapy
BY RANDOLPH E. SCHMID THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Lung-cancer patients who use nicotine supplements such a patch or gum to help them quit smoking may undermine their chemotherapy.
Nicotine is not known to cause cancer, but it can protect cancer cells from some of the most widely used chemotherapy drugs, researchers reported Sunday at a cancer meeting.
Srikumar Chellappan of the University of South Florida and colleagues studied the effects of nicotine on lung cancer cells that were treated with three commonly used drugs in cancer therapy — gemcitabine, cisplatin and taxol.
sure to the chemicals causes cancer cells to self-destruct in a process called apoptosis.
When nicotine was present, the cells increased production of a pair of proteins, XIAP and survivin, that protected the cells from apoptosis.
"Our findings are in agreement with clinical studies showing that patients who continue to smoke have worse survival profiles than those who quit before treatment," the researchers said.
The laboratory research focused on human non-small cell lung cancer, which accounts for 80 percent of all lung cancers. In chemotherapy, expo-
"They also raise the possibility that nicotine supplementation for smoking cessation might reduce the response to chemotheraputic agents," they added in a report appearing in next week's online edition of Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
The findings were presented at the annual meeting of the American Association for Cancer Research in Washington.
"Our findings are in agreement with clinical studies showing that patients who continue to smoke have worse survival profiles than those who quit before treatment."

For smokers with lung cancer, "the best thing is to stop as soon as they can," Chellappan said in a telephone interview. They should avoid nicotine in all forms, not just smoking, he said, adding "that is easier said than done."
"There are a lot of smoking cessation programs, behavioral rather than chemical based," he noted. "That would be the best thing to quit smoking."

Job market growing but effort still needed

It feels good to be wanted. After years of a dismal job market, a recent study by the Chicago-based consulting firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas shows that many college graduates are stepping right into a better era of job offers and incentives. Though the study paints a better picture for those hunting for jobs, students still need to be adequately prepared for the rigors of searching for a good job.
For the first time since the dot-com industry plummeted, the firm reports entry-level position availability and salary are the best in the past five years. The study shows that employers plan to hire 14.5 percent more college graduates this year. Starting salaries are also up, between 11 percent and 3.9 percent depending upon a graduate's degree. Those with liberal arts and sciences degrees can also expect to see better results in their job searches.

If a student needs help putting together a résumé or just finding job listings to browse, the Career Center is there, Gaston said.
It may be reassuring to know that employers are looking to hire students, but students have to put forth the effort to show that same enthusiasm.

Making college cheaper is easy as one, two, three
COMMENTARY
The importance of a higher education is known to all of us who choose forgoing paychecks now for exams and all-nighters in front of a blurry computer screen. As I stand on the precipice of graduation with my tuition doubling since I first came to the University of Kansas and looming student loan bills awaiting my next step I wonder if college could be cheaper. Unsurprisingly the answer is yes if we make a few minor changes.
1. The federal government cut $12 billion from the student-loan program back in February to help pay for an exploding deficit and tax cuts for the wealthiest 1 percent. A better way to save money and not hurt students would be by passing the Student Aid Reward (STAR) Act, which increases student-aid funding by redirecting the subsidies currently going to loan companies to needy students.
Our current system costs $11 more for every $100 loaned to students. By passing the STAR Act our federal government could increase aid to students without any new taxes or cuts to deserving programs. This plan would generate $4.4 billion next year alone. While this common sense plan may not be the final answer to all our problems, it sure is a good start.
2. Textbook prices have increased 186 percent since December 1986 according to the Government Accountability Office. To give you a little perspective, if all prices increased at this rate a gallon of
JUSTIN LAMORT opinion@kansan.com
Publishers say they are trying to help students who aren't as well-prepared for college by offering supplements that could help them learn. I call shenanigans. Textbooks are now bundled with unnecessary and unused CDs and other extraneous additions to artificially raise the price.

Textbooks are now bundled with unnecessary and unused CDs and other extraneous additions to artificially raise the price. Furthermore, U.S. Public Interest Research Group found publishers, such as Thomson Learning, charge U.S. students 72 percent more, on average, than students in the U.K.,

Africa and the Middle East. Textbooks are one of the few things where demand is determined not by the consumer — students — but instead by professors. In short, we are getting screwed.
How do we make it better? We get professors and legislators informed and get our textbooks unbundled. The practices of publishers have been egregious and no amount of spin can change the numbers. If we keep pressuring and, more importantly, stop buying, they'll be forced to submit to our civic and market demands.
3. Lastly, the Kansas legislature is working on a bill introduced by Rep. Bill Fuerborn (D-Garnett) that would allow public universities to keep the interest earned on tuition and student fees instead of that money going toward the state's general revenue fund. This would mean an estimated $3.3 million for the University and $337,000 for KU Medical Center. If only a portion of these funds can go toward tuition assistance then more students could afford the ever-increasing cost of college by using money that comes from students in the first place.
Making college cheaper may seem simple, but that doesn't mean it will happen. I urge you, if these ideas seem sound, to take the initiative and e-mail them to your representatives. A little change now can save a lot of change tomorrow.

COMMENTARY
NEIL SPECTOR opinion@kansan.com
When I was in high school, the only tests that I had to worry about were two practice tests, one for the ACT and another for the SAT. Today, that process has expanded in states such as Illinois.
My brother Scott Spector, a junior at Adalie E. Stevenson High School in Lincolnshire, Ill., said, "It's a little ridiculous. We go through two or three practice tests before we get to the one that actually matters." According to Spector, the process begins with a test called the Explore Test that predicts a student's success on the PLAN test. The PLAN test predicts the student's performance on the ACT and even goes as far as making a prediction of that student's career path. Then of course comes the more familiar PSAT, or practice SAT. Unique to the State of Illinois is the Prairie State Exam, part one of which is a straightforward standardized test, followed by part two, an actual ACT exam. After all of this preparation, students take the ACT and/or SAT.
Think about everything that is riding on these tests. In Illinois, one of the practice exams tells students what their career path could be. How is that possible? Too much importance is put on these tests and it is causing a lot of unnecessary pressure on students who probably are already dealing with a lot.
Students have every right to be worried about these exams; the results of an ACT or SAT maps out a student's path for the rest of his or her educational career. It doesn't stop with high school exams either. Other specialized tests such as the GRE, MCAT, GMAT, and LSAT, among others, all have an enormous impact on a student's future. If the score on that one test is not good enough, what is a student to do? That person has just spent the past few years of his or her life preparing for a career path that he or she might not be able to follow because of a poor performance on a multiple choice test.
An editorial by Paul Houston, executive director of the American Association of School Administrators, could not make my stance on this issue any clearer; "Only on 'Who Wants To Be a Millionaire' can people rise to the top by rote memorization and answers to multiple-choice questions. The final answer to improving education is more than memorizing facts for a multiple-choice test. Children today need critical thinking skills, creativity, perseverance, and integrity."
Although these skills are much more difficult to assess, students need to know that this is what they should be aiming for, not just a score on a test.

Making college cheaper is easy as one, two, three
▼ COMMENTARY
The importance of a higher education is known to all of us who choose forgoing paychecks now for exams and all-nighters in front of a blurry computer screen. As I stand on the precipice of graduation with my tuition doubling since I first came to the University of Kansas and looming student loan bills awaiting my next step I wonder if college could be cheaper. Unsurprisingly the answer is yes if we make a few minor changes.
1. The federal government cut $12 billion from the student-loan program back in February to help pay for an exploding deficit and tax cuts for the wealthiest 1 percent. A better way to save money and not hurt students would be by passing the Student Aid Reward (STAR) Act, which increases student-aid funding by redirecting the subsidies currently going to loan companies to needy students.
Our current system costs $11 more for every $100 loaned to students. By passing the STAR Act our federal government could increase aid to students without any new taxes or cuts to deserving programs. This plan would generate $4.4 billion next year alone. While this common sense plan may not be the final answer to all our problems, it sure is a good start.
2. Textbook prices have increased 186 percent since December 1986 according to the Government Accountability Office. To give you a little perspective, if all prices increased at this rate a gallon of
JUSTIN LAMORT opinion@kansan.com
Publishers say they are trying to help students who aren't as well-prepared for college by offering supplements that could help them learn. I call shenanigans. Textbooks are now bundled with unnecessary and unused CDs and other extraneous additions to artificially raise the price.
1986 milk would cost $6.35.
If you think that stinks, try buying a $200 new edition book that you can't return.
Publishers say they are trying to help students who aren't as well prepared for college by offering supplements that could help them learn. I call shenanigans. Textbooks are now bundled with unnecessary and unused CDs and other extraneous additions to artificially raise the price. Furthermore, U.S. Public Interest Research Group found publishers, such as Thomson Learning, charge U.S. students 72 percent more, on average, than students in the U.K.,
Africa and the Middle East. Textbooks are one of the few things where demand is determined not by the consumer — students — but instead by professors. In short, we are getting screwed.
How do we make it better? We get professors and legislators informed and get our textbooks unbundled. The practices of publishers have been egregious and no amount of spin can change the numbers. If we keep pressuring and, more importantly, stop buying, they'll be forced to submit to our civic and market demands.
3. Lastly, the Kansas legislature is working on a bill introduced by Rep. Bill Feuerborn (D-Garnett) that would allow public universities to keep the interest earned on tuition and student fees instead of that money going toward the state's general revenue fund. This would mean an estimated $3.3 million for the University and $337,000 for KU Medical Center. If only a portion of these funds can go toward tuition assistance then more students could afford the ever-increasing cost of college by using money that comes from students in the first place.
Making college cheaper may seem simple,but that doesn't mean it will happen. I urge you,if these ideas seem sound,to take the initiative and e-mail them to your representatives.A little change now can save a lot of change tomorrow.

Measuring potential takes more than tests
NEIL SPECTOR opinion@kansan.com
When I was in high school, the only tests that I had to worry about were two practice tests, one for the ACT and another for the SAT. Today, that process has expanded in states such as Illinois.
COMMENTARY
My brother Scott Spector, a junior at Adlai E. Stevenson High School in Lincolnshire, Ill., said, "It's a little ridiculous. We go through two or three practice tests before we get to the one that actually matters." According to Spector, the process begins with a test called the Explore Test that predicts a student's success on the PLAN test. The PLAN test predicts the student's performance on the ACT and even goes as far as making a prediction of that student's career path. Then of course comes the more familiar PSAT, or practice SAT. Unique to the State of Illinois is the Prairie State Exam, part one of which is a straightforward standardized test, followed by part two, an actual ACT exam. After all of this preparation, students take the ACT and/or SAT.
Think about everything that is riding on these tests. In Illinois, one of the practice exams tells students what their career path could be. How is that possible? Too much importance is put on these tests and it is causing a lot of unnecessary pressure on students who probably are already dealing with a lot.
Students have every right to be worried about these exams; the results of an ACT or SAT maps out a student's path for the rest of his or her educational career. It doesn't stop with high school exams either. Other specialized tests such as the GRE, MCAT, GMAT, and LSAT, among others, all have an enormous impact on a student's future. If the score on that one test is not good enough, what is a student to do? That person has just spent the past few years of his or her life preparing for a career path that he or she might not be able to follow because of a poor performance on a multiple choice test.
An editorial by Paul Houston, executive director of the American Association of School Administrators, could not make my stance on this issue any clearer; "Only on 'Who Wants To Be a Millionaire?' can people rise to the top by rote memorization and answers to multiple-choice questions. The final answer to improving education is more than memorizing facts for a multiple-choice test. Children today need critical thinking skills, creativity, perseverance, and integrity."
Although these skills are much more difficult to assess, students need to know that this is what they should be aiming for, not just a score on a test.

Marchers participate in a parade honoring the late Cesar Chavez Saturday in Wichita.
Students cut class to protest immigration bill
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WICHITA — More than 350 Kansas students walked out of high school Friday, joining thousands of students across the country demonstrating against immigration bills being debated in Congress.
Some 250 high school students carried flags from the United States and Latin American countries as they marched to Wichita's City Hall, where they gave speeches about their parents' lives as immigrants and chanted in English and Spanish.
Carlos Ramos, a junior at Wichita South High School said the plan to walkout spread through word of mouth, and
students decided to leave school even if they lacked permission
A group of about 100 Topeka students also marched Friday, the same day students in California, Texas, Nevada and other states held demonstrations against the federal proposals. Many said they feared relatives could be deported if a bill calling for a sweeping crackdown on illegal immigration passed.
Most of the protests were peaceful, and were timed to coincide with the 79th anniversary of the birth of the late Cesar Chavez, the co-founder of the United Farm Workers union who became a champion of poor, Hispanic agricultural workers in the 1960s and '70s. There was a stabbing during a
protest in Virginia and another student was arrested in Las Vegas, however.
Superintendent Winston Brooks of Wichita said adults had encouraged the students to leave the classroom, and added that he would press charges should he discover any "legal violations encouraging students to be truant."
"There is absolutely nothing wrong with having a peaceful protest about something that you're passionate about," said Brooks. "What I am upset about is that we had some adults, not parents, that encouraged students to be truant today."
Ana Romero, a senior at East High School in Wichita, said students organized the event.
"We saw rallies in California and Texas and wanted to do something," said Romero, 18. "We didn't walk out to be rebellious."
Several high school administrators said they would treat participation in the march as an unexcused absence, which requires that the students' parents accompany them when they return to school.
Ray Collins, a Witchita North High School junior, said he decided to go to the march after his father called the school to have him excused for the day.
"They teach in school that they should stand up for themselves," said Collins' father Steven Ramirez, "and that's what they're doing."

DNA may solve murder mystery
Corpse will be exhumed, tested in suspected life insurance fraud
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
"Hopefully, we'll expose a beautiful face — a skull, that's what we're hoping for," Van Gerven said. "It could be dust ... (or) it could be a very well-preserved skeleton."
LAWRENCE — Two University of Colorado professors hope a 127-year-old mystery involving an unmarked grave in Kansas will be solved as soon as next month.
Questions about who was buried in the grave eventually led to the creation of an important piece of federal evidence law in the late 1800s.
A Douglas County judge on Friday gave Colorado anthropology professor Dennis Van Gerven and law professor Marianne Wesson permission to exhume a body in the grave at Lawrence's Oak Hill Cemetery.
The dig likely will happen in mid-May.
Martin approved the request after the professors pledged to return the remains to the grave within 48 hours and that the process would be handled in a dignified way.
Van Gerven said crews would dig only 2 feet into the ground with heavy machinery. After that, a team will dig by hand through each layer until they spot the coffin.
They hope to determine if the corpse is John Hillmon or Frederick A. Walters.
They'll remove the bones—if there are any—and take them to a University of Kansas lab, where they'll clean and photograph them.
Van Gerven said that if the skull was in good shape, he would be able to superimpose a photo of it on other photographs, to see which man it matches.
He said Hillmon's nose was distinctively different from Walters'
If there's only dust in the grave, a small sample will be taken for DNA testing.
When Hillmon's death was reported in 1879, life insurance companies suspected that Hillmon and a companion had killed Walters to collect on Hillmon's life insurance policy.
Walters reportedly had sent his girlfriend a letter announcing plans to travel with Hillmon.
The dispute over the case led to six trials, and it went twice to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Using Walters' letter to his girlfriend, the court's first ruling created an exception to the hear-say rule that allows out-of-court statements by third parties to be used as evidence if they describe the intentions of the speaker or the writer.
Wesson said she believed the Supreme Court's decision to allow the letter was based partly on the justices' belief that Hillmon was not dead—and that the court had wanted the letter admitted to help prove it.
Scholars will view the court's decision differently, she said, if it turns out that Hillmon was buried in the grave all along.

Third game seals victory for Kansas

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Sophomore third baseman Erik Morrison jogged to first base. In the bottom half of the eighth, Morrison was the third batter hit by a pitch and the fifth walk of the four-run Missouri meltdown.
Besides a top of the ninth mini-rally, the 9-6 series decisive victory in the Border Showdown series was nothing like the dramatic game two that tied it at a game apiece on Saturday.
It did, however, start that wav.
Three innings later, Kansas (20-11, 4-5) used strong winds and heavy swinging to take the lead back.
Two batters into the series finale, No. 29 Missouri (16-11, 6-3) already had the lead. Senior left fielder Zane Taylor cleared the trees in center field with his first homer of the year.
"We got ahead early and obviously we were able to expand on our lead," coach Ritch Price said. "Sometimes those games can scare you, especially in these kind of conditions. If you don't pitch good at the end of the game, somebody else can come back and put up four or five runs late, as well."
Before Kansas got into the scoring rally, Missouri tacked on run number two off the bat of shortstop Gary Arndt. Arndt's sacrifice飞 score first baseman Derek Chambers, who led off the inning with a single down the first base line.

Times have surely changed today.
Once upon a time, people of all ages would eagerly anticipate the first week in April. Dads played hooky from work and their children played hooky from school for just this day. On this day, winter seems to truly end with the opening day of Major League Baseball.
Today, in many Major League parks, is opening day. It's a day of celebration. A day when ballparks across the country are decorated in the same kind of enjoyment usually reserved for the playoff games in October.
For many small market teams like the Kansas City Royals, it's the closest that they will come to the feel of October baseball.
It will always be this way, until things change in the Major Leagues to allow teams to compete on a more level playing field, similar to that of just 15 to 20 years ago.
For those teams that will not make it to the playoffs, opening day has the whole package to pretend that it's October. The ballparks are full and everything has a feel of celebration and hope.
The next day and usually night, most teams play their second game, many times on a very cold night. The hope of opening day for teams like the Royals, and others small market clubs disappear like the warmth of opening day.

Nick Reid earned Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year last season after leading the No. 3 rush defense in the nation to a bowl victory.
TOPEKA — Mike Rivera knows that KU linebackers set the bar high last season.
Rivera, sophomore linebacker who took a redshirt, said this year's linebackers weren't trying to fill the shoes of former linebackers Reid, Kevin Kane or Banks Floodman.
During a scrimage on Saturday at Hummer Sports Park in Topeka, Rivera and sophomores James Holt and Joe Mortensen will replace Reid, Kane and Floodman.
"We're trying to make new shoes," Rivera, a Shawnee Mission native, said. "We're trying to make our own names."
Hoit moved from the safety position to play linebacker last season.

"Kerry looked sharp today, considering the amount of plays he was given," Mangino said. "I'm real pleased with how he recognized things."
Junior fight end Derek Fine said that Meier had done a solid job this spring of spreading the football around to different receivers.
"I'm going to do whatever I can to put my best stuff out there so the coaches can make their choice easier." Meier said.
Meier, a Pittsburg native, took a redshirt last season.
"I might be real nice to him once in a while, buy him lunch, so he'll throw to me more," Fine said jokingly.
Fine, a Sallisaw, Okla., native, caught 22 passes for 244 yards and a touchdown for the Jayhawks last season.

Mangino said the team was about where he thought they would be at this point in the year.

Gault displays power, skill

Holly Gault's stat line in the Kansas soccer team's 7-2 victory against Yale on Saturday might have seemed like someone was playing a joke. After all, it was April Fools' Day.
Gault, junior defender,
scored five goals and notched
two assists.
"Scoring five goals is a huge accomplishment for Holly," Kansas coach Mark Francis said. "It's especially good considering that was only her second game playing up front after spending her last three years as a defender."
Gault's five goals would have been a Kansas record but since this game was a spring exhibition game, the record would not count. The most goals scored by an individual during a game in the regular season is three. Also, Gault's seven points, since she added two assists, have had tie a regular season record that is held by Caroline Smith.
Gault's offensive fireworks were more than enough to beat Yale and moved Kansas's spring season record to 1-0-1.
From the beginning of the game, the Jayhawks took control. Junior midfielder/forward Lacey Novak opened the match with a goal to put the Jayhawks on top 1-0. They never looked back.
"coring five goals is

A huge accomplishment for Holly. It's especially good considering that was only her second game playing up front after spending her last three years as a defender."
Gault responded with three of her goals in the first half to give the Jayhawks a 4-1 lead at halftime.
In the second half, Kansas continued to dominate the game on both ends. Gault added the Jayhawks fifth and seventh goals of the match and Novak scored her second goal for Kansas' sixth goal.
"I was a little bit surprised at how easily we beat Yale since they had almost all of their players back from a 15-win season," Francis said. "I felt we played much better than our last game against Minnesota."

Team rebounds with victory
Team dominates Tulsa and Drake
BY DANIEL C. WEIXELDORFER

KANSANSPORTWRITER
The University's alma mater never sounded so good to the Kansas rowing team. After its victory Saturday, the team formed a circle and the tradition of singing the song capped off the successful day, just like after every race. However, as the first home victory of the semester, this one was special.
"We just focused on having a good week of practice because we knew this week was important with our schedule coming up," Kris Lazar Mulvane junior said. "We just wanted to make sure we knew how to win."
The team rebounded with a victory in its match against Tulsa and Drake after a disappointing trip to Texas that took place during spring break. The team did not manage to place first in any race last week and came home eager to race again. Saturday, the team came out with an eagerness to get a victory under its belt.
The team did just that on Saturday by dominating Tulsa and Drake, winning four of six races. In each of the winning races, the team took big leads and was able to close out races in that manner.
After winning the first race of the day, the team dropped the following two and headed into an unexpected break that occurred in the middle of the match and the team regrouped.
This proved to be the turning point in the match, after which, the team came out and won every race.
ery race.
"The break usually doesn't happen, but it helped us to come out with more intensity in the second half of the match, but these girls do not need to be pumped up much," head coach Rob Catloth said.
"They love to race so a little nudge usually gets them going, but they are usually excited to compete anyway."
Senior captain Jennifer Ebel led this specific race that had a time of 6:46.0, finished 14 seconds before Drake, which finished in second place. According to teammates, Ebel displays her leadership in practice, before and during the match.
"Being chosen as a captain, I along with some others are basically the spokespeople of the team. We say what is necessary, give encouragement, make decisions and take care of business but more importantly, I think the unspoken leadership is what is really noticed," Ebel said.
The team will face Kansas State in the Kansas Cup Saturday. The race could be an important confidence booster heading into the Big 12 Championship.
"The match against Tulsa and Drake was an important stepping stone to what we are trying to do. To get a win after last week against Texas was also important. We are just going to celebrate today and then take what we accomplished today into next week against Kansas State," said Lazar.

Team continues six-game streak

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
The Kansas tennis team continued its winning streak this weekend, defeating Oklahoma on Saturday and Iowa State on Sunday.
The current winning streak of six games is a season high for the lavhawks.
Their previous longest streak was a three-game streak, which started in late January.
"The girls are definitely working hard in practice and it's paying off in our matches," Kansas coach Amy Hall-Holt said. "It's making our matches a little simpler and a lot more fun."
The pair of victories gave Kansas its first two Big 12
Conference victories of the season.
The 5-2 victory against Oklahoma was the first outdoor KU match in Lawrence this season.
"I prefer outdoors," senior Christine Skoda said. "The sun is shining, and it slows down the pace a little bit."
Kansas swept the doubles matches against Oklahoma, but dropped two of the singles matches.
Four out of the six individua matches were decided by a third set.
Kansas won three of them.
Sunday's match against Iowa State was not as close as
the match against Oklahoma.
There weren't any three-set matches.
Kansas pulled out the victory by a score of 6-1. Iowa State's lone point of the match came in doubles play when the No. 2 and No. 3 spots for Kansas lost. Kansas came back to win all six of the singles matches in two sets.
"Everyone played really well, everyone got ahead, and it's easy to keep going when you've already won the first set," Skoda said.
The two victories moved the Jayhawks' overall record to 11-6 and 2-3 in the Big 12.
The next match for the team will be against Nebraska in Lincoln, Neb. on Wednesday.

Fans watch despite loss
BY ERIC JORGENSEN
ejorgensen@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Chad Landis, a bartender at Astro's, 601 S. Kasold Dr., will be bartending during tonight's championship game. He said fans have been scarce in the bar on game nights. Usually an NCAA tournament game would draw a large crowd, but with Kansas not playing, business has been slower.
"Nobody cares," Landis said.
He expects tonight to be the same.
"There have been some people out watching the games, but not very many," Landis said.
In the second year after a first-round NCAA tournament loss, Kansas basketball fans found themselves again questioning whether to keep watching tournament games. After the loss to Bradley this season, some fans boycotted the following games out of frustration. However, those who regained interest witnessed a tournament that provided new thrills, from several close games to George Mason's historic Final Four run. Still, not many went out and watched games. That trend is expected to continue tonight, as local bar owners expect few to go out and watch the NCAA championship game between Florida and UCLA on CBS.
Cara Montgomery, North Liberty, Iowa junior said she would watch the game tonight, but had no desire to go out and watch it. She said she didn't care enough to watch it anywhere but home.
One thing KU fans had in common fans across the nation were bracket disasters. On ESPN.com, only four people picked the Final Four correctly.
"I started cheering for teams
"A part of me did lose interest. It was OK watching and not having to worry about KU," Montgomery said.
"I watched up until my bracket was completely screwed," Graham said. "I didn't like the teams that made it to the Final Four."
Mike Graham, St. Louis sophomore, said he lost some interest after Kansas lost, but rooted for his bracket to do well.
I usually wouldn't," Montgomery said. "I would have never paid attention to Wichita State's games or the lower-seeded games had KU won."
Some fans share Montgomery's views. Although bitterness was the first reaction, eventually they watched the tournament with interest and without a KU bias.
"The day after the loss I couldn't watch basketball," Iowa City junior Philip George said. He was able to watch the championship the next weekend, though. "I thought it was really exciting. The whole George Mason thing was awesome."
Graham said that he didn't plan to go out to watch the championship game.
George said that while he was watching the rest the championships, he started rooting for the teams in his bracket.
George said he planned on staying home for the game, rather than go to a bar.

Season opens to different faces
MLB
BY DOUG TUCKER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- The Detroit Tigers and Kansas City Royals, who've combined to lose 58/1 games the past three years, will launch a new season Monday with the hope that always accompanies new managers and different opening day starters.
Jim Leyland, longtime manager at Pittsburgh who spent the last six seasons as a major league scout for St. Louis, has replaced Alan Trammell for the Tigers. Pitching for the Tigers in their 3 p.m. opener with Kansas City will be Kenny Rogers, 41, one of two key offseason acquisitions designed to bolster the pitching.
In the dugout for Kansas City
will be Buddy Bell. The former All-Star third baseman replaced Tony Pena last June. He conducted a rugged, no-nonsense spring training that was meant to instill focus and discipline on a team that committed a major league-high 125 errors in 2005 while losing a major league-high 106 games.
Right-hander Scott Elarton, a member of the Cleveland staff last year, will start for the Royals.
"I think we're all very optimistic," Bell said Sunday. "Because of the changes we made over the winter, because of the chemistry we developed through the course of spring training. I think we all feel pretty good about where we're at right now."
The season took a quick downtown for the Tigers just
days before the season opener when 38-year-old reliever Todd Jones, signed to an $11 million, two-year contract during the offseason, aggravated a left hamstring injury.
He was placed on the 15-day disabled list.
Fernando Rodney, who was 2-3 with a 2.86 ERA and nine saves in 59 games last year, figures to take over for Jones.
Nevertheless, veteran outfielder Dmitri Young says the Tigers have already taken something from Leyland.
"We've adopted his attitude," Young said. "We have an idea of what he's about and that rubs off on us. His attitude — you play hard and you play it right. Yet, he's a man of few rules but he demands respect."
Tension among Kansas City fans, executives and city officials will be much greater than most opening days because of an election on Tuesday that could decide the fate of major league sports in the region.
Voters in Jackson County will decide on one sales tax measure that would raise more than $400 million for renovations to Kauffman and Arrowhead stadiums, and another business tax that would bring about $200 million for a rolling roof over both structures.
Most polls are predicting a razor-thin margin either way, and some have suggested that an exciting opening day victory by the Royals might gain the few extra votes to push the measures over the top.

Ryne helps team earn victory
BY SHAWN SHROYER
sshroyer@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
The defensive carousel on the right half of the Kansas infield finally came to an end on Sunday. After missing 18 games with a broken bone in his hand, sophomore Ryne Price reclaimed his spot at second base.
Bandall Sanders/KANSAN
ASTON
Sophomore infielder Ryne Price squares up to bunt in the sixth inning of the Jayhawks' series —clinching 9-6 victory over the Missouri Tigers at Hoglund Ballpark Sunday. Price returned to the lineup Sunday for the first time since February 24, after missing 18 games because of a wrist injury.
Coach Ritch Price said he thought Ryne's return to the lineup made all the difference in Kansas winning its first Big 12 series of the year.
"I actually thought that if he hadn't played, we might not have won today." Coach Price said. "It just puts our lineup so much better one-through-mine and, not only that, it makes our offense a lot better defensively."
Saturday's game showed that the Kansas defense needed Ryne back.
With a runner on first base and two outs in the top of the fifth inning, Missouri senior infielder Trevor Helms hit a hard ground ball up the middle. Senior second baseman Jared Schweitzer fielded it and tossed it to second base. The only problem was senior shortstop Ritchie Price wasn't there yet, and the ball skipped over to sophomore Erik Morrison at third base. Had Morrison not thrown out Missouri sophomore infielder
Brock Bond at the plate, the Tiers would have added to their 2-1 lead with the error.
With two outs in the top of the seventh, an error by freshman first baseman Preston Land gave Missouri an opportunity for a two-out rally that it didn't capitalize on.
"Yesterday was the first day that we got exposed on the right side of the diamond, defensively." Coach Price said.
Although coming into Sunday day with only a .205 batting average, Ryne made his first major contribution in five weeks at the plate, lacing a single between Missouri's shortstop and third baseman in the bottom of the second inning.
In the bottom of the sixth inning, Ryne made his presence known on the base paths. Ryne was walked by Missouri senior Travis Wendt and was helped to second base by junior Dylan Parzyk's sacrifice bunt. While on second, Wendt attempted to pick Ryne off, but overthrew the base and Ryne moved up to third. A double by Ritehie sent Ryne across the plate for Kansas' fifth run of the game.
"They weren't holding us on real well, so I was just trying to take advantage of that." Ryne said.
In the field, Ryne didn't make any spectacular plays, but he didn't look like an infelder that
hadn't played in more than a month, either.
in the top of the second, a ground ball ricocheted off of first base past Schweitzer, but Ryne was there to keep the ball from going any farther. The next inning, Ryne recorded his first assist since Feb. 24, against Belmont.
Coach Price said the pitchers would be able to throw
with more confidence with the defense behind them, now that Rvne was back.
"I think the fact that they know they can throw a ground ball, we can turn double plays all through the infield is a huge thing for the pitcher to know," Price said.

'Hawks inconsistent offense leads to split series
BY ALISSA BAUER
abauer@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Friday — Missouri 3, Kansas 0
Missouri pitcher Nathan Culp (6-2) didn't give up a walk until the top of the ninth inning. It was his only walk of the game in the Missouri 3-0 victory.
Allman had two of them.
Culp struck out the next two Jayhawks, clinching a complete game, three-hit shutout Friday night against Kansas (18-11, 2-5).
The Kansas offense was inconsistent on Friday. Culp threw for the complete game and the victory, surrendering only three hits. Of the three, sophomore outfielder John
"I went in and got a couple hits, but it's all about winning ball games." Allman said. "It's not about one person in the lineup. It's got to be about the whole team as a lineup."
Kansas coach Ritch Price said the reason for offensive inconsistency on Friday was more about how well Culp pitched.
Kansas starting pitching balked three times on Friday, setting a new team record. Junior Sean Land (4-5) was called for the balk twice, freshman Paul Smyth had the third balk.
Saturday — Kansas 3, Missouri 2
It barely cleared the left
field wall, as nearly 2,000 fans inched forward in their seats to see if Erik Morrison's long fly ball would make it out of Hoglund Ballpark.
"In my four years we've never had the back-to-back crowds that we've had this week," Price said.
Just four outs away from falling to an 0-2 series deficit, the sophomore third baseman's seventh home run of the year tied the Border Showdown at one game a piece, with a 3-2 Saturday victory.
"That's as good as I can hit it," Morrison said. "I wasn't really sure when it left my bat, but I was hoping."
A diving catch into foul territory was also needed to seal the victory.
Sophomore left fielder John Allman took off after a foul ball. His body slid against the wall as he came up with the third and final out.
Kansas overcame three blatant errors, the assistance of four pitchers and a scoring drought that lasted five innings.
Missouri third baseman Brock Bond was ejected after he ripped off his helmet to protest an umpire's call at the plate. Bond slid into junior catcher Dylan Parzyk's at home plate glove and was called out.
Senior closer Don Czyz (4-0) took the victory after tossing the eighth and ninth innings.

In the same inning, Kansas loaded the bases with sophomore second baseman Ryne Price at the plate.
Fresh off the disabled list, Price had already tagged a single in his first at-bat in 18 games. He took a little advice on his first day back from a newly signed recruit, Robbie Price.
"My little brother was like 'Hey, first pitch fastball in the next at bat just bang it to left.'" Ryne Price said. "He threw a fastball away so I just pushed it over there."
But with the bags packed in the third, Chambers prevented a consecutive hit, diving for his line drive and touching first along the way. The double play was the epitome of solid hitting and clutch defense. This one favored the Tigers.
Luckily for the home team, Chamber's play was basically all that favored the Tigers. After Missouri jumped to that quick two-run lead, the team fell silent, until a one-run seventh.
For the second day in a row, strong Kansas hitting made for an early Tiger pitcher exit. Freshman right-hander Rick Zagone (2-1) only threw three innings, surrendering four runs off seven hits and taking the loss.
Quick, however, tossed a stellar
Book. In textbook fashion, Quick
went a solid seven allowing three runs before freshman right-hander Paul Smyth stepped in to collect a pair of outs in the eighth.
"I was happy with the way things went," Quick said. "They scored a couple in the first and second. They were hitting the ball and I knew they'd eventually hit them to us."
when senior closer Don Czyz was called on with runners on in the eighth, his team held a two-run lead which was his job to protect.
Uncharacteristic for Czyz, he allowed the Missouri offense to finally spark. The four runs Kansas put across in the eighth, however, made the three runs Missouri scored in the ninth much easier to handle.
With the series victory, Kansas can now seriously contend in the Big 12 Conference. A series victory next weekend at home will put the Jayhawks at a .500 record, a sweep would give them a winning record in the Big 12. It's a feat which the Jayhawks have never accomplished in a season.
"We win our first series at home against a ranked opponent, and we've already played the two College World Series teams on the road," coach Price said. "We find a way to win the series next weekend then we're at .500 halfway through. We'd be in pretty good shape."

Football
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 18
FORT MYERS
Up next, the football team will hold its annual spring scrimmage on Friday, April 14, at Memorial Stadium. It is set to kick off at 7 p.m. Beforehand, the Third Annual Alumni Game will be played at 5 p.m. Both events are open and free to the public.
Football Notes:
Anthony Mattingly/KANSAN
Redshirted freshman quarterback Kerry Meier scrambles as he looks down the field for an open receiver during spring practice on Saturday in Topeka. Meier received the majority of snaps on Saturday rather than senior quarterback Adam Barmann.
wangino said he was informed last week that senior defensive lineman Eric Butler's waiver was denied. Mangino said an appeal was being put together and he felt there was additional information, which was not submitted the first time, that would support Butler and would give him a chance to win the appeal.
Butler enrolled at DeVry five years ago, and whether his eligibility clock should have started at DeVry is in question because DeVry does not have an athletics department.
Defense wins 86-85 — The football team used a complex scoring system during the scrimmage Saturday. Points were awarded to the defense and offense for plays such as first downs, touchdowns and turnovers created. The turning point
came when sophomore cornerback Aqib Talib intercepted a Meier pass in the end zone and returned it 45 yards. This was a 12-point turnaround that gave the defense the edge.

Hope
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
Typically from day two on, hope fades as the trees begin blooming in earnest. From there a downward spiral starts, which loyal fans of these teams anticipate, but at the same time, doesn't mask the agony that comes with excessive losing.
At the University, there is actually reason for hope on this opening day.
Most of it, though, only surrounds the baseball team that had its opening day more than a month ago.
Today, The Kansas baseball team watches the big leaguers take the field for the first time this year, a day after notching the biggest victory in their young season, taking two of three games from hated Missouri.
Today also brings hope to a Jayhawk team that's off to their best start in years. There is the hope that they will make a run
not seen at Kansas in some time.
That's the beauty of college sports,hope is more authentic, more genuine and believable. It can happen regardless of where you play.
Today, the Kansas City Royals will open yet another season of non-winning and there will be a full house for the only time this year, not counting games against St. Louis and the Yankees, when much of the park is cheering for the visiting team. There will be dads, children and fans all taking in a glorious April afternoon. They will recall better days, when Kansas City was as much known for good baseball as they are for good barbecue. Today, for three hours, Royals fans, like those of many other teams will relish and soak in the one thing that the symbolic image of opening day conveys: Hope.
Chavez is a San Antonio senior in journalism.
Soccer
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 18
Even though the Jayhawks' offense may have garnered the most praise with their scoring barrage, the defense also performed well. Freshman goalkeeper Julie Hanley played in the first half and sophomore Colleen Quinn protected the net in the second. Each player gave up only one goal.
"Defensively, we did a good job," Francis said. "I thought we had a good performance all around."
The game, which took place at Morrison Stadium in Omaha, Neb., was part of the Kicks for a Cure soccer weekend to raise money for women's cancer research. Other teams featured included Creighton, which played host to Minnesota, Notre Dame, Nebraska and Iowa State.
Kansas plays an exhibition game this Wednesday against the Kansas City Legends U-15 Boys team at 5:30 p.m. at the KU Sports Complex.

a new gateway for the University.
Greg Wade, a landscape architect for the University, said construction on the Docking Family Gateway at the intersection wouldn't start until the end of the week and should be completed by the time classes resume next fall.
The gateway will be an island
in the street with a raised fountain area and a column, approximately 16 or 17 feet tall, that will have "University of Kansas" on it. It will be lighted at night.
The plan is that the materials in the gateway will blend with the buildings in the surrounding area.
"It's a mix of native limestone and brick, so it seems appropriate for that part of campus," Wade said.
The gateway has an estimated budget of about $500,000, which was donated by the Docking family. The gateway will be important because it will let people know when they enter campus, said Warren Corman, University architect.
"It's a sense of place," Corman said. "Psychologically in architecture you don't feel comfortable unless you know where you are."

Cleanup generates business Local companies benefit from storm

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Surveying the damage after the March 12 microburst, Ross Dessert found plenty to deal with.
Dessert, who is in charge of facilities at the St. Lawrence Catholic Campus Center, 1631 Crescent Road, said two of the Center's four homes sustained roof damage, the church's roof was damaged directly above the organ, and he found pieces of Templin Hall that blew across the street.
But he didn't have to look hard to find a roofing company. Earlier in the year the Center had new

roofs put on a couple of the church properties.
"Those held up pretty well," Dessert said, adding that the company, Alpha Roofing, came back out soon after the storm and made the necessary fixes.
For businesses, the hardest-hit area was along 23rd Street, especially east of campus and on Massachusetts Street.
Alpha Roofing's Darin Lutz said that his company, like others around Lawrence, had seen an increase in customers since the storm as businesses and homeowners begin cleaning up.

companies and collect bits on the work. Sign companies have also been cashing in on the storm.
Kim Van Dame, Star Signs project assistant, said that in the first week after the storm the company made about 30 bids on jobs created by the storm, and work is still coming in as businesses continue to communicate with their insurance companies.
In the first days after the storm, the company held off on some of its current jobs and had employees devoted exclusively to the cleanup process.

Aftermath of a plane crash
TUESDAY top10
BY BENJAMIN SMITH
editor@kansan.com
KANSAN CORRESPONDENT
Top 10 best first lines from novels, according to the American Book Review.
1. "Call me Ishmael." — Herman Melville, "Moby-Dick" (1851)
Matt Bourke/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
J1971
2. "It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife." — Jane Austen, "Pride and Prejudice" (1813)
Emergency crews respond to the scene of a C-5 cargo plane that crashed carrying 17 people, just short of a runway at Dover Air Force Base, Del., Monday. The tail of the aircraft is in the field near by. The military cargo plane headed for Spain developed problems after takeoff and crashed trying to return to Dover Air Force Base early Monday, military officials said. All 17 people aboard survived, though several were injured.
3. "A screaming comes across the sky." — Thomas Pynchon, "Gravity's Rainbow" (1973)
4. "Many years later, as he faced the firing squad, Colonel Aureliano Buendia was to remember that distant afternoon when his father took him to discover ice."
— Gabriel García Márquez, "One Hundred Years of Solitude" (1967); trans. Gregory Rabassa)
6. "Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way." — Leo Tolstoy, "Anna Karenina" (1877); trans. Constance Garnett)
5. "Lolita, light of my life, fire of my loins."
    - Vladimir Nabokov, "Nobukov" (1955)
    - "Lolita, light of my life, fire of my loins."
7. "Riverrun, past Eve and Adam's, from swerve of shore to bend of bay, brings us by a commodius virus of recirculation back to Howth Castle and Environs. — James Joyce, "Finnegans Wake" (1939)
8. "It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen." — George Onwell, '1984 (1949)
9. "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair." — Charles Dickens, "A Tale of Two Cities" (1859)
10. "I am an invisible man." — Relph Ellison, "Invisible Man" (1952)
"Quote of the Day"
A woman without a man is like a fish without a bicycle. — Gloria Steinem
ODDS AND ENDS Here comes the bride, all dressed in tackle
BRETHREN, Mich. — A couple brought together by a passion for fishing was married at — where else? — a river's boat ramp.
William Nickel read a short poem Friday before asking Vickie Wright to join him in the Manistee River during their wedding ceremony. They were dressed in fly fishing gear, with white flowers attached to their vests. Family members observed the ceremony from a dock rather than church pews.
Nickel had proposed to Wright a little over a year ago and asked her to meet him at the river for their wedding. He recalled introducing Wright to the sport of fishing — saying she has enjoyed it ever since.
"I taught her how to fly fish," Nickel said. "She has been catching a lot more fish lately."
While Nickel waited for the pastor to arrive for the ceremony, he threw in a line and caught 10 small fish. He threw them back after kissing one of them for good luck at the request of his bride-to-be.

Upset father sues contentious coach
Oddenino, an attorney, filed a lawsuit in Superior Court claiming coach Don Riggio inflicted emotional distress on a player when he called her "a 2-year-old" and frequently called other players idiots.
ARCADIA, Calif. - When Michael Oddenino's teenage daughter complained that her softball coach was insulting her
teammates, he took the dispute off the diamond and into a court
The suit sought $3 million for intentional and negligent infliction of emotional distress, negligence, a civil rights violation, and sex discrimination.
But Superior Court Judge Jan Plim dismissed the case, writing in her March 14 decision that there is nothing wrong with "a coach pushing an athlete to excel, and in so doing, using words that in another context would be considered rude, demeaning and even intimidating."
The suit had alleged that Riggio "took advantage of his position of authority to engage in an abusive pattern of excessive intimidation and humiliation of the female players, frequently calling them 'idiots,' and belittling them for minor errors"
Said Riggio: "I'm just glad it's over. Now we can move forward and do what we're there for, and that's to coach."

Mercier built his house out of concrete — 85 yards of it. From the outside, the new 2,300-square-foot ranch-style home doesn't look a lot different from most. The basement and foot-thick exterior walls are made of concrete
Mercier and his wife are often asked if their bed is concrete. It is not.
— but so are the floors, windowsills, counter tops and end tables.
Man constructs home entirely of concrete
Mercier, who has run a concrete contracting business for three decades, said he got the idea of building a concrete house from an exhibit he visited at a World of Concrete convention.
Construction involved no wood framing or plywood, just windows, siding and interior Sheetrock. Hollow foam blocks were stacked and angled inside the walls before concrete was pumped around it. Even some of the furniture inside is molded concrete.
AUBURN, Maine -Termites wouldn't like the house that Mike Mercier built.
"The end tables are so cute," said Sue Mercier.
The walls are so soundproof that the Merciers' dog has a hard time hearing people come up the driveway now.
Such a home is energy efficient, because foam and concrete homes use less oil to heat, Mercier said. But a concrete home costs 10-15 percent more to build than a traditional wood-frame home, he added.
lowa alumni erect school flag on capitol
DAVENPORT, Iowa — Some University of Iowa alums elected to show school pride in an odd way two weeks ago, hanging an Iowa flag atop a state building — in Illinois.
A construction crew in Springfield, Ill., apparently raised the University of Iowa's Hawkeyes emblem while working on a historic building last week, unaware that only U.S. and state flags are typically allowed to fly atop state buildings.
The rules apply to state buildings that are under construction as well, so state officials in Illinois ordered the Iowa flag taken down last weekend.
"Had we known their plan we could have told them before it happened," said David Blanchette, spokesman for the Illinois Capital Development Board.
The Associated Press
Several workers for the project's general contractor, Halverson Construction Co., attended the University of Iowa and apparently wanted to show pride in their alma mater.
The building in question is a train station that construction crews are converting into a visitors center for the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library, a popular attraction.

Alpha Roofing did the same. Lutz said the company hired extra employees to help with the increase in business. He guessed that the repair work would continue through the summer, and potentially into the fall. That is not the case for local landscaping companies, who found themselves with cleanup work initially, but not much in the
way of long-term jobs.
is not yet in, but preliminary estimates from the University indicate between $6 million and $7 million in repair costs associated with the storm. Douglas County as a whole fared slightly better. Governor Kathleen Sebelius asked the federal government for financial aid, citing $5 million in damage within the county, the hardest hit in Kansas.
At one local company, Preferred Lawn Service, general manager Scott Waisner said that beyond some work with the Kansas University Endowment Association, the company didn't receive much of an increase in business. However, spring is a busy time for landscaping companies, meaning they will have a full load of work unrelated to the storm.

DENVER — Commuters hitched rides with friends, used taxis and rented cars Monday when Denver-area transit workers went on strike for the first time in 24 years.
NATION Strike slows Denver's public transportation
The Regional Transportation District used private contractors to keep about 45 percent of its bus routes running but closed light-rail operations and a shuttle service stretching along a downtown pedestrian mall.
Traffic flowed fairly smoothly across most highways during the morning rush, but commuters had mixed feelings about the strike.

"I can understand them
The transit system averages about 275,000 rides per weekday.
No new negotiations were scheduled, although Yvette Salazar, president of Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1001 said the two sides met informally Monday. She said RTD declined the union's suggestion to enter arbitration.
Scott Reed, RTD spokesman, said the agency would offer no additional money but was willing to restructure how it is distributed.

Gateway
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
Corman said that the gateway was one of five planned in the master landscape plan published in August of 2003. One other gateway, the Malott Gateway, on 15th and Iowa streets, has already been completed. The other locations with planned gateways are 19th Street and Naismith Drive, 11th and Mississippi streets, and 17th and Indiana streets. The remaining three gateways still need funding before they can be built.
Construction of a permanent traffic control booth south at the intersection on 14th Street and Oread Avenue will begin shortly after graduation. There is now a
temporary booth at the intersection. The KU Parking Department is funding the booth's construction. Donna Hultine, director of parking services, said that during construction of the gateway, the temporary traffic control booth would allow southbound traffic to come in, but northbound traffic would be diverted to 14th Street. Buses will still be allowed through. Hultine said that her only concern about the gateway moving the location of the traffic booth was leaving more of campus exposed.
"Because there's so many buses in that area, I hope it doesn't become a resting place for cars to stop and pick people up," Hultine said.

Newspapers CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
Kocour said that this fee would not need to be increased to pay for the new summer program because the increase in enrollment had given it the amount needed.
Nick Sterner, student body president, said the summer newspapers would become a permanent part of the readership program.
He said the board would use this first year to get a better idea of the number of papers that would actually be read.
The newspapers will be in newspaper stands at the Kansas Union, Fraser Hall, Green Hall, Learned Hall, Summerfield Hall, Watson Library and Anschutz Library.
"We did what we could afford and what would work," Sterner said. "We didn't want to over do anything and that's why it's a
pretty small program."
He said there would be a limited number of locations for the newspapers during the summer because there were less students on campus each day.

CAMPUS Softball reporter resigns, articles flagged
The University Daily Kansan has accepted the resignation of softball reporter Jonathan Anderson.
On Sunday night, Anderson filed a bylined story from Saturday's game that was largely the same as a press release from the Kansas Athletics Department.
The story was not published, but the Kansan started an investigation into his previously published stories.
Bylined stories on Feb. 11, 2006, and March 30, 2006, contained paragraphs that
were taken entirely from press releases or with only minor changes and not attributed to the Athletics Department.
Anderson's explanation was that on Sunday he submitted an incorrect version of the story, submitting notes instead of the final draft of the story.
The Kansan's policy is that all published material is original, unless it is attributed. In this case, that standard was not met.
The Kansan, and Anderson, regret that this happened.
The Kansan is in the process of selecting a replacement.

Science spurs lectures
BY CATHERINE ODSON codson@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER
The Kansas State Board of Education's "redefinition" of science spurred the inception of a new lecture series at the University of Kansas that will discuss the particulars of science in Kansas.
The four-part lecture series was designed to thwart attacks on science in the state of Kansas, including the Kansas State Board of Education's acceptance of the intelligent design theory.
Lawrence Krauss, professor of physics at Case Western Reserve University, will kick off the "Science, Education and the Public" series at 7:30 tonight at the Dole Institute of Politics.
The lecture series features four speakers who Feldman said could put "dangerous" Kansas issues in perspective. By including speakers from four separate disciplines — physics, philosophy, paleontology and chemistry — audiences will get four different points of view.
Hume Feldman, associate professor of physics, said he organized the series in response to the Board of Education's decision that the 500-year-old definition of science was not really sufficient.
The Board of Education sought supernatural explanations for natural phenomena, Feldman said, instead of accepting scientific explanations. By doing such, they redefined science, despite not having the expertise to do such, he said.
Krauss' lecture, "Science Under Attack, from the White House to the Classroom: Public Policy, Science Education and the Emperor's New Clothes," will provide potential solutions to attacks on science and specifically address the debates on evolution in Kansas and Ohio. His books, including "The Physics of Star Trek," explain the laws of physics in relation to popular science fiction.
Krauss said he insisted science be taught in science classrooms. Debates over the evolution theory, such as the one in Kansas, is a public relations battle distorting both science and religion that goes beyond the academic realm, he said.
Joseph Heppert, chair of the department of chemistry and director of the Center for Science Education, will complete the series with "Understanding 'Alternatives' to Evolution" on May 9. Heppert, the lone KU speaker, will discuss the debate on teaching intelligent design in Kansas schools.
He said that as a scientist, understanding "where the reality of the situation lies" was important.
His lecture will review his study of the testimony from the May 2005 Board of Education hearings about intelligent design and science standards.

Dolph
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
You may not recognize his name, but Dolph Simons Jr., chairman of The World Company and editor and publisher of the Lawrence Journal-World, may be the most influential man in Lawrence. It is almost certain that you subscribe to some medium that funnels your money into his company and his pockets — the Lawrence Journal-World, the city's only commercial daily newspaper, or Sunflower Broadband, the only local cable TV service and the dominant high-speed Internet provider.
You may get phone service from him or help with your computers from his company's Geeks on Wheels. The images you can see on computers or cable TV on campus are made possible by a fiber-optic connection linking the University of Kansas to Sunflower Broadband. His company prints USA Today for this region, the Pitch and the newspaper you are reading right now — The University Daily Kansan. If you are a KU student, part of your student fees fund the Kansan, which pays his company more than $300,000 each year for printing the student paper.
Dolph intensely anticipates and worries about competition even though some argue his news, cable and online operations constitute a local media monopoly.
Probe deeper and you find other contradictions.
He is a blue-suited conservative, in politics and in lifestyle, in a city of jeans-clad Bohemians who cast their votes for John Kerry, Kathleen Sebelius and other liberal Democrats. He preaches civic involvement, especially in growth and development, yet local liberals say his paper and cable news channel eschew involvement in their causes. He leads one of the most technologically sophisticated media operations in the world,
yet he types his Saturday column on a 1930s Royal typewriter. His companies are staffed by numerous graduates of the KU School of Journalism, yet most of his donations go elsewhere in the University. He contributes millions to the University, yet bashes it regularly in his weekly column.
A Lawrence media dynasty: the Simons family
Dolph Simons, 76, grew up in Lawrence and graduated with a KU journalism degree. As a young man, he worked abroad at the Times of London and at the Johannesburg Star in South Africa. By 1978, he had succeeded his father, Dolph senior, as publisher and editor of the Journal-World and as president of The World Company.
The company began when W.C. Simons traveled by horse and buggy from St. Joseph, Mo., to Lawrence in 1891 and bought one of seven competing newspapers for $50.
Today the company employs nearly 600 people in Lawrence. About 80 percent of the city's households receive cable from Sunflower, which also offers cable in Eudora, Tonganoxie, Basehor and Piper. Nine out of 10 households in Lawrence receive information from the company's newspapers, Internet editions or cable television each day.
Dolph's davs
Dressed in a suit and tie, Dolph arrives at The World Company headquarters, 609 New Hampshire St., at 7:30 each morning and strolls to the office guarded by a phalanx of receptionists.
He evaluates the morning paper in detail as he sits behind his desk, cluttered with stacks of paper, magazines, books and newspapers. He critiques all aspects of the Journal-World, from how the stories are played and their quality to the advertisements and the quality of newsprint.
He reads several other papers to see how they played the same news. The rest of his day involves meetings both inside and outside headquarters, which may include the KU Hall Center for the Humanities, Midwest Research Institute or the Kansas Bioscience Authority.
He also might meet with local legislators, school board members and superintendents or KU faculty and administrators.
"In most newspaper offices, that's the name of the game," Dolph said. "You're supposed to be involved with the community."
He usually forgoes lunch, opting instead to munch on crackers in his office. He returns at 5 or 6 p.m. to his $1.2-million home near 23rd and Vermont streets surrounded by a large grass yard and flanked by tall trees, its porch adorned with an American flag. When he's not working, he vacations at his lake cabin in Minnesota, fishing and spending time with family.
Dolph's hand in the news
At the Journal-World, he is all business. Dolph meets with reporters and editors in the newsroom to discuss coverage, but avoids social gatherings with reporters at bars that other editors might indulge in.
"Those of us in the business need to conduct ourselves in a manner that reflects well on the business," Dolph said. "I don't believe that a person should be a reporter and be known as a big gambler, or a boozer, or chasing skirts."
Dolph's influence on the content of the paper is considerable, but mostly indirect.
One Journal-World staffer who asked not to be identified by name or gender said Dolph regularly used red grease pencils to write notes to staffers about stories in the Journal-World. The notes both praise and criticize and might suggest possible stories. On a rare occasion, reporters and editors receive a typed note.
On rare occasions, Dolph's influence on content may exceed notes scrawled in red.
Dolph uses the notes because he doesn't communicate by e-mail, the source said.
Two sources at the newspaper, who asked that their names be withheld, said the Journal-World was preparing to publish a story about Jack Schreiner, a Free State High School teacher and basketball coach who was arrested Oct. 19 and charged with window-peeping. Ralph Gage, chief operating officer of The World Company for 36 years, ordered that the story be held, according to one source.
"A lot of people thought it was easily the most important story of the day" one source said.
After complaints from midlevel editors, Gage said the story could be published but that it had to be brief, inside the paper and under a one-column headline, one source said. When the story ran under a three-column headline on page 3B Oct. 26, Gage complained to city editor Mike Shields about the placement of the story in the paper, the two sources said. Shields quit in protest, but returned to work about a week later, the sources said.
"It got delayed and buried," one source said. "It did get published though."
Gage declined to discuss the newsroom controversy over the handling of the Schreiner story or whether Dolph was involved in it, and Dolph never responded to repeated questions about it left by phone and in writing. Kathy Underwood, his receptionist, explained "They feel like they've given you enough of their time and they're through."
Shields declined to be interviewed for this story.
In an earlier e-mail interview, Gage explained that his role in the company was to carry out major policy decisions made by Dolph.
"He tells me what to do, not vice versa," Gage said. "I craft suggestions, put forth ideas.
Former staffers praised him as a person, but complained that depth reporting was discouraged.
Then whatever's decided, it's my job to make it happen."
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 5A
Kendrick Blackwood, now a staff writer for the Pitch, worked as a reporter for two-and-a-half years in the late '90s, when The World Company began to combine its print, television and online operations, but left the newspaper because he wanted to write longer articles, which he said were discouraged at the Journal-World.
Blackwood said he and other reporters were required to write one article per day and one for the weekend. The paper does well at daily news coverage, he said, but "I wished at the time we could have done more in-depth, longer enterprise articles."
Tim Carpenter was a JournalWorld reporter from 1988, when the newsroom didn't have a fax machine, he said, to 2004 when the company was a leader in multimedia news. He left to take his current job as an investigative reporter at the Topeka Capital-Journal because he wanted to chase bigger stories, he said.
Carpenter called Dolph "a great guy," while acknowledging that Dolph's Saturday column and his politics "ruffled some feathers in Lawrence."
"If they want to write editorials, they should start a paper," he said of Dolph's critics.
"Me and my typewriter know nothing about convergence."
Dan Simons, Dolph's son and president of The World Company's electronics division, smiles when talking about how his technologically-challenged father decided to go multimedia. He explained that his father reads a ton, notices trends and asks good questions.
Dolph refuses to use e-mail and doesn't use a personal computer. His secretaries handle his electronic correspondence, while he types his notes, his letters and his column on a shiny black 1930s Royal typewriter.
"I will admit I am stubborn to change." he said.
"He ingrained in all of us, 'never be complacent,' Simons said. "He has a saying: 'Drive with your bright lights on.'"
Dolph got into cable television even though people advised him against it.
Dolph learned about cable television at newspaper publishers' meetings in New York in the 1960s and when he returned home, he decided to plunge into the cable business, he said.
"My idea was, I'd give it a try and find out it didn't work, rather than sit on our fannies and not do it, then have someone come to town and think, 'Why didn't we do it when we had the chance?' Dolph said.
At first, Dolph wanted the cable operation to be separate from the newspaper.
"I didn't want people to think that they were getting fed out of the same spoon by the same company," he said.
Ralph Gage said at first the newspaper and television station competed fiercely, but management began to see that both operations faced competition from newspapers and TV stations in Topeka and Kansas City.
"Those entities were being gobbled up by big organizations," Gage said about Kansas City and Topeka media. "Big media companies — Knight Ridder, Morris, you name it. It's not like we woke up one morning, but over a short period of time, we certainly did recognize that our future depended on us changing."
In 2001, the company combined its television, print and Internet news operations. Only 100 other media companies had adopted convergence at that time. Gage estimates.
That convergence bothers some, like David Burress, a retired research economist for the KU Policy Research Institute, who frequently writes critical letters to the newspaper.

6A THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
NEWS
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 5A
TUESDAY, APRIL 4, 2006
He complains that The World Company's operations constitute a classical media monopoly in Lawrence. A few other information sources exist in the city, such as the Kansan, but the student newspaper cannot compete in the general community, Burress says.
Because of The World Company's monopoly, businesses feel pressured to avoid placing advertisements in alternative papers, such as The LawRENCIAN, he says. Burress cites the failures of a number of weeklies in Lawrence over the years.
Businesses "feel that if they advertise in weeklies, they are less likely to get free publicity in the Journal-World," Burress said. "That's a monopolistic practice."
Similar to cable companies in most cities, Sunflower Broadband is able to charge more money for its cable service because it has little competition, he said.
"Cable prices are unreasonable everywhere — it's a license to print money," Burress said.
Dolph said major newspaper companies have tried to move into Lawrence.
"You've got Kansas City, with their new press coming up ... I know damn well they're going to try to come here. Topeka tries to come in here," Dolph said.
"Sure, I can appreciate and understand that somebody would say, 'My God what a monopoly.' And in one sense, it would appear that way. And in one sense, it is. But that doesn't mean that somebody else can't come in here and start something." Dolph said.
Dolph said he already has competition in Lawrence, pointing to Internet service from AT&T (formerly SBC), newspapers in Topeka, Leavenworth and Ottawa, and radio and television stations in Kansas City and Topeka. Dolph even sees the Kansan as a local competitor for newspaper advertising. He refused to be photographed for this story, although he sat for one to accompany an article about him in The New York Times. The Kansan purchased that photo from the Times for this article.
Paul Jess, a retired KU journalism professor who was general manager of the Kansan from 1980-1982, said he remembered when The Associated Press suddenly began charging the Kansan the higher commercial rate instead of the university rate for wire stories and photos. The AP is a cooperative owned by the newspapers it serves — including the Kansan and the Journal-World.
Jess recalled that a student on the advertising side decided to expand Kansan circulation by placing boxes filled with Kansans throughout Lawrence. An AP employee called shortly after and told Jess that the Kansan would be charged the higher commercial rate for articles and photos.
While the AP didn't tell Jess whether anyone had complained, the AP justified its decision because the Kansan was "competing," Jess said. Jess said it was a "valid assumption" that the complaint came from Dolph, the Kansan's only local competitor.
Dolph denies that The World Company played a role in the price increase.
Tom Eblen, general manager of the Kansan from 1986 to 2001, said his relationship with Dolph was positive and that the printing quality of the Kansan improved greatly when The
Malcolm Gibson, current general manager of the Kansan and a member of the journalism faculty, said he didn't know of a better relationship between a city and a college newspaper than the one between the Journal-World and the Kansan.
World Company began printing it — in color and not in just black and white.
Today the Kansan pays the lower university rate for AP articles and photos and Gibson said he hoped the Kansan would soon circulate around town again.
"Everything I've sought to accomplish with the JournalWorld, I have, with respect to the AP rules, too. And I expect to accomplish everything," Gibson said.
The University
Ann Brill, dean of the KU School of Journalism, converses with Dolph about once a month, she said. The World Company's leadership in multimedia news perfectly complements the curriculum of the school, which is a national leader in multimedia news, she said.
Dolph and his two sons, Dan and Dolph III, president of the
company's newspaper division who is known in the company as D-three, are members of the William Allen White Foundation board of trustees and the Dean's Club, a group of donors who give $1,000 or more a year to the school.
Brill said Dolph has been generous to the school, but could not reveal exact amounts because of confidentiality rules.
"I think his contributions to the school have been more in terms of resources," she said.
Dolph supports the school by hiring students and providing interns at the Journal-World with unpaid instruction from the paper's staff, Brill explained. People have told her that Dolph speaks highly of the school as well, she said.
"Because he is a person of influence, much more beyond Lawrence than a lot of people realize, that helps that the local publisher thinks highly of what you're doing." Brill said.
Dolph declined to reveal the sum of his contributions, and the KU Endowment Association, a private entity, is not required to provide that information unless donors agree, said spokeswoman Jen Humphrey.
Dolph and his family's most recent contribution to the University amounted to $2.125 million, part of an $8.5-million donation to the KU Endowment Charitable Gift Fund, Humphrey said. She explained that another $2.125 million of that money went to the Douglas County Community Foundation. Endowment allows donors to designate charitable recipients outside the University. The Simons family will decide where the remaining $4.25 million will be distributed
— either to the University or to the Douglas County Community Foundation. Humphrey said.
Dolph said that his donations had funded the Simons Media Center inside the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics, the Dolph Simons Room inside the Wagon Student Athlete Center, and that he had contributed to various schools on campus.
"It's not designed so that we give more to one particular school, or to one particular program than to another one," he said.
Despite his KU contributions, Dolph frequently criticizes KU administrators in his Saturday column in the Journal-World.

SUDOKU
sudoku is a number-placing puzzle based on a 9x9 grid with several given numbers. The object is to place the numbers 1 to 9 in the empty squares so that each row, each column and each 3x3 box contains the same number only once. The difficulty level of the Conceptis Sudoku increases from Monday to Sunday.

SOMEONE SPEAKING TO ME
ARIES (March 21-April 19) **★**
Under the circumstances, the less said the better. You are a hotbed of ideas; especially if you are brainstorming with one particular person. Others might not understand your mental processes the same way this person does.
▼ HOROSCOPES
The Stars Show the Kind of Day You'll Have
5-Dramatic: 4-Persons; 3-Range: 2-10th; 1-Blashful
Tonight: In your head.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ******
Examine what keeps getting tossed at you. You will make a great tennis racket as you throw the ball into someone else's court as frequently as he or she does yours. Many ideas come from many different people.
Sam Hemphill/KANSAN
Tonight: Hang with your friends.
GEMINI (May 21- June 10) *****
An opportunity to learn more could benefit you in multiples, especially financially. You will learn to more and open the doors to more mental growth. Travel, a class or someone quite different could be the source of information.
Tonight: Put your bill in order.
GANCER (June 21-July 22) ******
Wish for more in your life and make it happen. If you don't have the accompanying drive, you will find it harder to achieve. Act on your heartfelt desires. The time is now.
Tonight: Smile away.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★
Knowing when to vanish could be beneficial right now. You have a lot on your mind, as does a key associate. Exchange information and opinions in a quiet manner with decorum and respect.
Tonight: Take some time off from life's demands.
LEO July 23-Aug. 22) ★★
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ***
Be a lot better about what you want and need. Others will listen, especially if you tune in to your more emotional side and personality. You might be surprised by what is going on. Examine the end results.
Tonight: Where your friends are.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) *****
You are called upon to make a judgment and take a stand. Making good decisions requires having the facts -- all the facts.
Assume responsibility, and you could hit a home run with ease. Listen to your sixth sense.
Tonight: A force to be dealt with.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★★★
Sometimes you life differently because of events or a new perspective.
As intense as you are as a sign is as much as you need to detach. Not every issue is life-or-death, though you might make it so.
Ease up and chill out.
Tonight: Rent a movie.
SAFETY TRAINING 2022/12/24
Others clearly want to be major players, whether you are interested or not. Listen to opinions full well you don't have to say yes or no. Others might give you much more insight without knowing it.
Tonight: Schedule time for yourself.
CAPICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ***** Know when to defer and take the high road. You might have difficulty understanding where others are coming from. Stay quiet, and you'll get the answers you are looking for. Listen rather than talk. Tonight! Let someone else choose.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) *****
Make it a point to stay focused. Get as much done as you can at this point. Your sense of dedication and purpose needs to come out. Pace yourself, but don't forget to schedule an important doctor's appointment.
Tonight: Early to bed.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) ******
Your ability to understand a lot comes in a discussion. Listen to feedback from some other sources. Sometimes you could be too sure of yourself and cause yourself a problem. Be open to different styles.
Tonight: Add some playfulness to your life.

--respectively kick our ass in the Homecoming department, Hawk Week is a great mandatory list of events for incoming freshmen and do we even have a Greek Week? The University of Kansas needs an event like this for every student to take pride in and enjoy. The bands appearing this year, like Spoon, Ghosty and Sharon Jones, are an eclectic enough mix that should appeal to music snobs and Top 40 lovers alike.

PAGE 9A
SUA resurrects event that should appeal to all
Like the bright-yellow goalposts swallowed in the depths of Potter Lake, our school has a number of traditions that have gotten lost over time. But one tradition that had gone by the way-side, only to reemerge once again after four years of obscurity, is Day on the Hill.
The SUA-sponsored event began in 1988 as a venue to attract nationally renowned bands that included Pearl Jam, They Might Be Giants, Son Venezuela and the Gin Blossoms. (Remember...they were cool at the time). In its halcyon days the event drew thousands of hacky sack enthusiasts and music lovers.
Unfortunately, the only current students who previously have been privy to this event are victory-lap seniors. The last Day on the Hill was held during the spring of 2002. Talent fees for the event had grown to the point where SUA could no longer afford it.
This year is a different story, however, thanks to the increase in student fees which SUA benefited from. It's a good thing, too, because when else is there an event on campus that appeals to every KU student? Let's be honest: A number of schools
Issue: Day on the Hill brings back music concert
Stance: Finally, a University event with campuswide appeal
For too long KU students have missed out on a popular school tradition. Now that it is has returned, though, everyone should check it out when it starts at 2 p.m. this Saturday on the Lied Center Lawn. It's free, it's fun and it used to be popular. That's more than you can say for a lot of things at the University.

▼ COMMENTARY
Field experience relieves monotony of classroom
Dear KU,
Greetings from Nicaragua! I'm spending several weeks here and in Costa Rica teaching a high school biology course and doing dissertation research. The opportunity for my young students to learn about the natural world by experiencing it first-hand is absolutely irreplaceable. Every day, they're coming across creatures they never could've imagined, and they're asking questions and making connections that no textbook could've prompted. For some students, this experience is transformative — they now plan to study science in college when they hadn't thought of doing so before. For others, the experience is perhaps even more valuable
How are your classes going? This late in the semester, I imagine you're bogged down in the daily grind of keeping up with homework and cramming for exams that never seem to end. It's amazing how, for all the studying we do, we really don't remember all that much after the semester is done. Sure,

These experiences were a lot of work and certainly time-consuming, but I wouldn't trade them for the world. Not only was I able to see biological concepts in action, reinforcing things I had only read about before, but I also came to realize that field ecology was the career for me. I entered grad school ready for the ups and downs of ongoing research. So now, several years later, I sit here in Nicaragua, continuing to teach myself while introducing others to the wonders of nature by getting then out of the monotony of the classroom. These hands-on experiences really round out an education, so I hope you also find yourself outside of the classroom soon.
the basic concepts bounce around in our heads, but all the details seem to slip away. It makes you wonder how complete an education can be if it consists exclusively of taking notes in a lecture hall, following cookbook instructions in a lab, and pouring over hundreds of pages in books.
Have you considered stepping outside of the classroom before you graduate? I highly recommend it. The academic experiences I remember most from my undergraduate days are those that allowed me to teach myself, rather than those when someone else condensed and recounted what others had done in times past.
In one simple instance, I was assigned to watch some daisies in a campus garden with the task of recording a half hour's worth of insect visitors. Comparing my observations to those of my rose and coneflowerwatching classmates drove home the point of pollinator specialization much better than hearing about it in a lecture hall. Soon thereafter, I spent two summers taking field courses
Wishing you were here, Heather
in northern Minnesota, where each day was filled with making observations or conducting experiments outside — rain or shine, mosquitoes guaranteed. I later sought out a professor back on campus to advise me while I designed and carried out three semesters of independent studies on butterflies, which I had to work into my evenings and weekends around my alreadyfull course load.

I tell you about this because to three days, I couldn't read most of my blogs without seeing this man's name, and yet, whenever I read CNN.com or The New York Times or even Yahoo! News, there would be no word of it. How could be there no word? This was a significant event. Otherwise why would all of these people, these bloggers, be talking about it?
Blogs present powerful influence
What we are seeing is more than the creation of a new medium, but perhaps a revolution of media itself. Instead of letting newspapers or TV decide what we see, we actively choose what blogs we read and what filters we put on our knowledge. The unsetting question then becomes: If blogs altered my definition of news, what else have they done to me?

▼ COMMENTARY
I always considered the most flattering term to describe myself to be "news junkie." I took pride that I was the only one in my high school who watched "The Daily Show," an experience that was considerably heightened by my compulsion to read every newspaper within reach. For a while, I subscribed to more than a dozen magazines, ranging from Vanity Fair to The Nation to ESPN to The Atlantic. All news was fair game, and I absorbed it as fast as I could.
Nate Kartin, managing editor

That makes me a prime candidate for an addiction to the Webbased media format commonly known as a blog. I have calculated that during a typical weekday I may spend up to two hours in front of my computer reading blogs and the articles they link to. They represent a variety of sources, such as Deadspin for sports headlines, Treehugger for eco-news, and Newsdesigner for developments in, well, newspaper design. But the vast majority of my time is spent reading — mostly liberal — political blogs, such as Eschaton, Political Animal, Think Progress, and Daily Kos.
I still read the more mainstream sources of news, but my bearings as to what is "news" has been shifted considerably by these blogs. For instance, the week before last, the blogosphere was embroiled in a matter of admittedly little significance when The Washington Post Web site hired a 24-year-old conservative writer, Ben Domenech, to start a new blog called "Red America." The initial opponents regarded the seeming imbalance shown by the Post in not creating a similar blog for "Blue America." But things took a turn after just a few days when the Daily Kos found the writer in question had engaged in a pattern of plagiarism extending from his college days through his time at other publications such as the National Review Online. The above-mentioned blogs, plus several others, kept writing about the matter for 24 hours until the writer resigned, less than a week into his job.

10A THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
NEWS
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 6A
In October, Dolph wrote a column lambasting Provest David Shulenburger's office as a "bottleneck" for new ideas proposed by KU faculty. Quoting anonymous sources, he lamented what he called a negative attitude toward change by Shulenburger.
"That wasn't initiated by me necessarily, it was a number of faculty people who talked to me," Dolph said. "Things were slow getting done, slow getting executed and the nickname for the provost's office was 'the no office.'"
The University is an excellent state-aided University, but it has failed to tell its story in the legislature and throughout the state, Dolph said.
Critics say the Journal-World's coverage of the business community is soft and seldom negative. It also provides little coverage of peace and environmental groups, they say.
Tim Miller, religious studies professor at the University and columnist for The Lawrencian, a local alternative monthly paper, is a self-described Dolph critic. Miller has two main problems with Dolph: He owns the only paper in town, and he didn't earn his position, he says.
Shulenburger declined to comment on the column. However, he said Dolph held strong views on the University and his newspaper was a platform from which he could express those views.
The paper's politics
Dolph acknowledges he got a head start from his grandfather and father. His father, however, told him there was no guarantee that he would get the job. If he had been a misfit, he wouldn't have been able to fill the leadership position, he said.
The Journal World refuses to cover businesses in a negative light, Miller said. It supports what's good for businesses and provides little coverage of labor, he said.
Dolph said he wished more business writers worked at the Journal-World. Journalists lack

training in business writing, he complained.
Kendrick Blackwood, the former Journal-World reporter, said that to his knowledge, Dolph never required reporters to slant articles in a pro-business manner. Blackwood recalled that he wrote some "semi hard-hitting" articles about Doug Compton, who owns First Management Inc. and may be the largest real estate developer in Lawrence. Compton advertises in both the Journal-World and the Kansan.
Amber Fraley, editor of The Lawrencian, says the Journal-World tends to avoid stories important to local liberals. Journal-World and Channel 6 news staffers may avoid the stories because they don't know how interested people are in them, but the lack of coverage also has to do with a mindset that begins with Dolph, she says.
"We all have our passions and business is his passion."
Carey Maynard-Moody Vice Chairwoman of the Lawrence chapter of the Kansas Sierra Club
"I get the impression that he's pro-business and politically conservative," Fraley said. "He operates his paper with the assumption that everyone in Lawrence thinks that way, too."
Even so, she says, the paper
has become more liberal in the past 20 years, perhaps for business rather than political reasons.
A newspaper should run conservative columnists even if the publisher or owner is a "staunch, liberal Democrat," Dolph said.
"It took a long time for Dolph and the company to realize the liberals are not just drugged-up hippies with no jobs." Fraley said. "The liberals in this town have good-paying jobs. They spend money in the community and they want a voice as to what happens in the community. For financial reasons, they can't continue to shut out these people."
erals as Leonard Pitts and Ellen Goodman.
Carey Maynard-Moody, vice chairwoman of the Lawrence chapter of the Kansas Sierra Club and resident of Lawrence for 25 years, says Dolph's news operations provide scant environmental coverage. The business community is wary of the potential restriction of development that environmental concerns pose, she said.
"We all have our passions and business is his passion," she said of Dolph.
Dolph describes himself as a "moderate, and more conservative than liberal," but he does not support any candidates financially, he said. In state elections and in national elections, Dolph says he votes most often for Republicans.
"Historically in Kansas, the Republican party has been the majority party and has been able to field the strongest type of candidates," he said. "There have been Democrats though, such as Bob Docking, who we supported editorially and personally."
Like his father, Dolph has long been involved as a member and officer of the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce, the city's most important advocate for business interests, and Journal-World editorials have generally supported proposed developments or business expansion in the city.
The Journal-World runs opinion columns from socially conservative syndicated columnists Cal Thomas and James Dobson, founder of Colorado Springs, Colorado-based Focus on the Family, but also carries such lib-
Melinda Henderson, coordinator for Progressive Lawrence Campaign, an organization that she says believes in sensible growth, complained that Dolph writes that people in her organization don't want the city to grow at all.
"That's my biggest complaint
— That he's says there's a small group of no-growths," Henderson said. "A lot of his columns make total sense, but then he'll try to paint the picture that people want to stop growth."
Dolph said he told Gardner she should make clear to the chamber that just because she served did not mean that she would support its position.
pocket of a city manager, or a mayor, or a chamber of commerce, or a football coach, or an athletic director or a chancellor." Dolph said. "You need to be supportive and helpful, but you just can't be in their hip pockets. That's not just our business."
“It's something that needs to be discussed,” he said. But the chamber and businesses are not “going to get a blank check from the Journal-World,” he said.
Ann Gardner, editor of the Journal-World's opinion page, is one of the chamber's past presidents. Because the newspaper has editorialized about business and growth issues, that raises questions as to a conflict of interest. While the Journal-World doesn't share its code of ethics with readers, The Kansas City Star's code of ethics states, "editorial employees should not belong to organizations about which they must write or make editorial judgments."
Gardner explains, "I'm not unilaterally forming editorial opinion for the Journal-World. I'd have to lead a pretty sequestered life to not write anything and to not be involved in a community this size."
"You can't ever be in the hip
Local politicians of both parties describe Dolph as involved in the community.
Mark Buhler, vice president and sales manager at Stephens Real Estate, says he used to speak with Dolph regularly when Buhler was a Republican in the Kansas Senate and a member of the board of the Chamber of Commerce. He and Dolph talked about growth, planning and real estate, he said.
"He's a much easier person to talk to than people think he is," Buhler said.
Paul Davis, an attorney and Democrat in the Kansas House of Representatives, says he talks with Dolph periodically about legislative, community and KU issues.
"He has his political opinions, as we all do," Davis said. "It doesn't matter whether you're a Republican or a Democrat — he's always willing to talk."
The future
The odds for keeping any successful business in the family decrease with each generation, Dolph said, acknowledging that the number of independent media companies is shrinking, too. Tax laws, the increasing complexity of the information business and the future of newspapers are among his chief concerns. Though his two sons hold leadership positions in the company, he's given permission to both his sons and his two daughters to sell the company. But he says he's confident Dan and Dolph III can carry on The World Company.
Until then, despite what critics say, Dolph will continue to lead his dominant World Company the way he always has supporting growth for both his business and his community, yet wary of potential competitors.

Storms in Tennessee kill at least 27 people
NEWBERN, Tenn. — Homes were shredded to their foundations in zigzagging lines of destruction that stretched for miles as wicked thunderstorms crashed across eight states, spinning off tornadoes, spitting out hail and killing at least 27 people.
The worst damage from Sunday night's storms occurred along a 25-mile path through rural western Tennessee, where raging wind tore off roofs, shattered buildings into splinters and knocked down solid brick homes.
"Most of the houses, you can't count.They're just gone," said Roy Childress,who was part of a church relief crew that was delivering food and water to survivors Monday.
The brunt of the storms, some packing softball-sized hail, blasted an area between the small town of Newbern, about 80 miles northeast of Memphis, to Bradford.Twenty-seven people were killed, including an infant and the grandparents who had been baby-sitting him.
"I just feel lost. I've been numb ever since last night," said Diane Wyrick, who lost the mobile home she had lived in since 1973. "I lost, but at least I didn't lose my life and that's a lot."
State police sent teams with search dogs to the area Monday to check what remained of damaged homes and businesses for anyone who might be trapped in the rubble. Many neighborhoods were blocked off to reporters.
Betty Sisk grabbed her son and daughter, ages 10 and 13, and took cover in a closet until the twister blew their house apart and threw them into the yard.
"By the time the sirens started going off, it was at our back door," Sisk said Monday. "I didn't hear a train sound, I heard a roaring."

Reflection helps ease withdrawal
TRAVIS ROBINETT trobinett@kansan.com
PETER
The day after the college basketball season ends is a sad one. Many experience withdrawal when they come down from March's high. The best way to deal is to reflect on good times.
On that note, let's reflect on the Top 5 Kansas shots of the year. These shots were picked because they were either crucial or flat out impressive.
5. Playing for a share of the Big 12 regular season title at Kansas State, Kansas went into the half up by 15 points, thanks to a Brandon Rush bank-in, buzzer-beating three-point shot. Until then, the freshman guard had five points. That shot might have been what propelled Rush to 16 points in the second half. The Wildcats got within three points, but never caught up.
4. In the first round of the Big 12 Tournament, senior guard Jeff Hawkins rebounded a shot Oklahoma State missed with a little more than four seconds left on the clock, then took the ball the length of the court and made a layup. His basket made the difference, as the Jayhawks won by a single point.
PAGE 1B
That particular basket was more important than all the others in the game because Oklahoma State had the opportunity to run out the clock at the end of the half. The Cowboys shot too soon, giving Hawkins an opportunity to score.
3. This next shot was the most impressive of the year not by a Kansas basketball player. At the Texas Tech game in Lawrence, George Regan, Shawnee junior, tried to have a little fun during a television time-out, so he decided to make a paper airplane out of a three-point poster handed out before the game.
"I'll never throw another, because that was the greatest paper airplane of all time and I want to go out on top." Regan said.
From the last row of the student section behind Kansas' bench, Regan folded it, lined it up and tossed it with perfect form. The airplane slowly glided above the student section toward the baseline. It took a dramatic turn to the left, heading behind the basket, hitting the head of an innocent bystander. As the students around him laughed, Regan jumped up and down in celebration.
2. During the Texas game for the Big 12 Tournament title, Kansas had a number of great shots. The one that sticks out the most in my mind is freshman forward Julian Wright's steal, fast break and dunk with a little less than six minutes left in the game. At the time, Kansas was up by two points, but Wright's amazing play gave all the momentum to Kansas, which went on to win the game by 12 points.
1. The No. 1 shot of the year was freshman guard Mario Chalmers' game-winning floater with 20 seconds remaining to take a 59-58 lead against Oklahoma. That shot, on Feb. 5, completed Kansas' 16-point comeback. It gave Kansas its first victory against a ranked opponent and established the Jayhawks as contenders for the Big 12 regular season title.

An HOK rendering of the rolling roof that would enclose Arrowhead and Kaufman stadium. Jackson County residents will vote today to determine if the roof will be created or not.
Stadium roof to be decided
Improvement could bring increased tourism to KC
BY Eric Jorgensen
ejorgensen@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Jackson County, Mo., voters will determine today whether the Truman Sports Complex in Kansas City, Mo., will add a rolling, retractable roof.
The possibility of a roof over Arrowhead and Kauffman Stadiums pushed Kansas City to a possible site to hold a Superbowl, an MLB All-Star game and an NCAA Final Four.
The possibility of a roof over Arrowhead and Kauffman Stadiums pushed Kansas City to a possible site to hold a Superbowl, an MLB All-Star game and an NCAA Final Four.
Tentatively, these events would happen between 2010 and 2015. A Final Four in Kansas City would provide local fans with an opportunity to watch the Jayhawks play for a national championship.
Kansas City Mayor Kay
Barnes said a Final Four in 2013 could be a reality if the measure was approved.
Jim Marchiony, associate athletics director, said Kansas being the host school in 2013 had not been considered vet.
Regardless, the University and the Athletics Department would benefit from a local Final Four.
The 1988 NCAA men's basketball championship was held at Kemper Arena. Danny Manning and the Jayhawks won that year's championship, which was the 50th anniversary of the NCAA.
Barnes said the roof would help launch Kansas City to a national sports symbol. The roof could bring future national
Ironically, 2013 would be the 75th anniversary of the NCAA, and a chance for the Jayhawks to repeat history as champions.
events, which compliment the Kansas Speedway.
HOK, an architectural firm in Kansas City, Mo., will design the roof if the measure passes.
"I would stack us against any city in America," Barnes said. "I see nothing but positive reinforcement."
Barnes said sport and nonsport tourism in Kansas City would increase as well. She said there had been a positive economic flow from the raceway, and that trend would continue to increase with the roof's presence.
A rolling roof that moves from Kauffman to Arrowhead Stadium, or vice versa, has challenges in making the appearances of the facilities look attractive.
Gina Leo, HOK spokeswoman, said the firm's designers had a tough task making the roof appear natural in respect to the current architecture and design of the stadiums. She said it could be done, and with good success.
"Kansas City has been a major league town for 40-plus years," Leo said. "If this bill passes we will make sure it stays that way for another 25 years."
In order to fund the $202 million cost of the roof, a Jackson County, Mo., sales tax increase would be imposed.
In addition, the Kansas City Chiefs would cover some of the cost and whoever purchased the naming rights for the addition would cover the rest.

Kansas looks to sweep
BY SHAWN SHROYER
sshroyer@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
Kansas is coming off its first Big 12 series victory of the season and will try for its first season sweep of Wichita State since 2000 on Wednesday at Eck Stadium. Kansas is eighth in the Big 12, but only a half game behind its weekend opponent, Texas Tech, which sits at sixth in the conference.
Senior outfielder and Wichita native Matt Baty missed 18 straight games because of spleen and kidney lacerations, but he is hopeful he will return at some point this week.
Senior closer Don Czyz has
the opportunity to break Big 12 and Kansas records this week. The next time Czyz takes the mound, he will tie the Big 12 career appearances record with 111. Czyz is also one save shy of tying the Kansas single season record of 11 set by Jimmy Walker in 1993.
Freshman first baseman Preston Land owns an eight-game hit streak, but sophomore outfielder John Allman swings the hottest bat. Allman recorded multiple hits in Kansas' past four games and has hit safely in Kansas' past five. He hit .526 during that span with five RBI.

INTRAMURALS
Freshman contributes to championship
I Like Apples had a rooster's worth of upperclassmen this spring that were used to the competitive spirit of intramural basketball. It was the play of one of only three freshmen — Eli Ringel — that elevated the team to a new level.
BY CASE KEFFER
ckeefer@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
The team won the intramural basketball championship in the Men's Open Bracket with a victory against SEK Connection, 54-48, on March 29.
"Eli is a really great player and was definitely the leader of our team," said Nick Hague, McPherson freshman and Ringel's teammate.
Ringel, a Fort Worth, Texas, native, has possessed a knack for hitting big shots and leading the team in scoring on the court. He has excelled at the position of small forward all year.
Ringel said the team was brought together at the last minute when he and his brother combined players from each of their different squads.
"Our only goal was a championship." Ringel said.
SEE APPLES ON PAGE 10B
This aspiration seemed to be in question when the team met DJ Wrinkle Finger in the semifinals, a team that Ringel called the most talented team in the league.

Senior ends season with 10-7 record
TENNIS
BY ANTONIO MENDOZA
amendoza@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
Skoda, an Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, native, is the only senior on the Kansas roster. She is also one of three upperclassmen on the team's roster of nine players and is the only upperclassman with a starting spot.
The Kansas tennis team will end the regular season with six matches and the Big 12 Tournament later this month. It will also mark the end of a KU collegiate tennis career for senior Christine Skoda.
Skoda is having one of her best seasons since arriving at Kansas from Canada four years ago. Currently, she has a singles record of 10-7.
record of 1953. Skoda said she hoped the team looked up to her not only for senior leadership, but because she knew what it was like to be from outside the United States and play tennis at Kansas. Five of nine tennis players on the roster are from outside of the country.
"With these girls coming from different countries, I know what they are talking about and what they are feeling even though I am from Canada," Skoda said. "It's a lot further than an hour away, and I think they can relate to me that way."
Kansas coach Amy Hall-Holt said she has noticed the players on the team looked at Skoda as a leader.
During spring break, Kansas played host to Saint Louis and UMKC. Skoda was moved up to the No. 2 spot on the team, her highest since the spring of 2005 when she spent time at both the No. 1 and No. 2 spots. She won both of her matches to help Kansas sweep both teams by a score of 7-0.
Skoda also had a notable victory when Kansas faced No. 72 Tulsa.
Skoda said she hoped the team looked up to her not only for senior leadership, but because she knew what it was like to be from outside the United States and play tennis at Kansas.
Kansas lost the doubles point and needed to win at least four singles matches to defeat Tulsa. Skoda's match went into the third set — she won. It ultimately helped Kansas win the match by a score of 4-3.
Skoda said her decision to play tennis in Lawrence came from the heavy recruitment that Kansas showed her.
"The coaches were recruiting me," Skoda said. "I was looking at a couple of schools here and I liked KU the best."
The Kansas tennis team has changed since Skoda arrived in Lawrence in the fall of 2002.
Hall-Holt was hired as coach in 2003. Skoda witnessed the coaching change and said the team camaraderie has been the same ever since.
same way, we will.
"All four years the team has been awesome," Skoda said.
"We have all gotten along and that has been important to having a good team on the court."
Skoda said her major was sports management. When she graduates she will make plans to attend graduate school.

Skoda will make her last trip to Lincoln, Neb., as a member of the Kansas tennis team on Wednesday at 2 p.m. when Kansas will face Nebraska.

Barkley and Wilkins to enter Hall of Fame
INDIANAPOLIS — Charles Barkley and Dominique Wilkins grew up in the deep South, played in the Southeastern Conference and spent more than a decade as two of the NBA's greatest forwards.
Now the men with the familiar nicknames and the formidable highlight reels will go into the Basketball Hall of Fame, fittingly, together.
Barkley and Wilkins each got the required 18 votes from the honors committee and will join former Detroit Pistons guard Joe Dumars, Connecticut women's coach Geno Auriemma, Italian coach Sandro Gamba and longtime contributor Dave Gavitt at September's induction in Springfield, Mass.
"Charles and I go back since college." Wilkins said Monday after the announcement was made.

HISTORY
The building was constructed in 1928 and served as the primary residence of the late George W. Bainbridge, a pioneer in the field of horticulture. It was named after Mr. Bainbridge, who is credited with introducing many important plant species to North Carolina.
The building is now part of the Bainbridge Homes complex, which includes a variety of residential properties designed by architects such as E.O. Mansfield and Lester T. McKinney. The complex is located in a scenic location near the water, providing residents with access to beautiful landscapes and recreational opportunities.
The building's architecture is characterized by its use of natural materials, including wood and stone, and its design reflects the early 20th-century aesthetic. The entrance features a wooden portico supported by columns, with a gabled roof that is adorned with intricate architectural details.
In addition to its historical significance, the building is also a popular destination for visitors interested in the history of North Carolina and the arts. The grounds are well-maintained and feature various outdoor spaces, including gardens and a pond.
Overall, the Bainbridge Homes complex is a remarkable example of early 20th-century architecture and a valuable resource for understanding the history of North Carolina.

Gators nab national crown
Florida outduels UCLA defense to win first ever championship
BY EDDIE PELLS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
INDIANAPOLIS — Game, set, match — and a championship, too — for loakim Noah and the Florida Gators.
The tennis star's son dominated UCLA with 16 points, nine rebounds and a record six blocks Monday night to key a 73-57 blowout for Florida's first national title in basketball.
The championship for Billy Donovan's team comes 10 years after Steve Spurrier led the Gators to a title in that "other" sport. Spurrier is long gone, and
the days of Florida being only a football school appear to be. too.
For 40 lopsided minutes, the Gators (33-6) were too big, too long and too quick for UCLA, which came up a win short of its 12th national title on a night when legendary coach John Wooden watched from a hospital bed in LA after being admitted for an undisclosed illness that was said not to be serious.
Honda and Noah won by putting on a thorough display of versatility and unselfishness, a trademark of this team all season.
The Bruins (32-7) were on a defensive tear coming into the championship game, shutting down LSU's Glen Davis in the semifinals and allowing a total of 90 points in the last two games. Florida, though, was just too much to handle.
Noah capped it off with a monster dunk with 1:09 left. When the buzzer sounded, he laid flat on his back at halfcourt and let the confetti rain on him. His teammates were in a pile a few feet away and Donovan was sharing hugs with his longtime assistant Anthony Grant.
The Gators won this by taking it right to UCLA early, looking to Noah, Corey Brewer and senior Adrian Moss down low, making the extra pass in the key and finishing with 21 assists, 10
of them from their frontcourt
It couldn't have been what Ben Howland's team expected had he scouted Florida's 73-58 win over George Mason in the semis, a game the Gators won from outside and that guard Lee Humphrey ended early in the second with three straight 3s.
The scrapy Humphrey, a junior from Maryville, Tenn., and the only non-sophomore in the Gators' starting five, did the honors again, spotting up for open looks against a collapsing defense early in the second half.
But there was no strategy to stop Noah. The 6-foot-11 son of tennis star Yannick Noah dunked, swatted shots and dominated the game, much like his dad did in his magical run to the French Open title in 1983.

Cards beat Phillies 13-7 Rollins' streak rolls on
BY ROB MAADDI
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PHILADELPHIA — By the time Jimmy Rollins extended his hitting streak to 37 games, only half the crowd had stayed to see it.
Rollins kept up his pursuit of Joe DjMaggio's major league record 56-game hitting streak with a double in the eighth inning, but it was the lone bright spot for the Philadelphia Phillies in their season opener Monday.
Albert Pujols homered twice, Scott Rolen hit a grand slam and the St. Louis Cardinals potent offense pounded out 17 hits in a 13-5 victory.
Chris Carpenter pitched five effective innings for the win.
though he wasn't as sharp as he was most of last season, when he went 21-5 and won the NL Cy Young Award. Carpenter allowed four runs and nine hits.
Rolen was 3-for-5 with fourRBIs, Pujols was 2-for-2 with fourRBIs and Aaron Miles had fourhits, including two doubles and a triple. Every Cardinals starter,including Carpenter, had a hit by the time St. Louis completed aneight-run fourth inning.
a bad day. The Phillie Phanatic's four-wheeler briefly stalled near the third baseline in the sixth inning, forcing the teams to wait a bit before starting play.
Pat Burrell and Ryan Howard homered for the Phillies, who ended up with their worst opening-day loss since the Brooklyn Dodgers' 12-3 victory in 1935.

MLB
Loser Jon Lieber picked up where he left off in spring training, giving up eight runs and nine hits in three 1-3 innings.
Lieber finished 17-13 in his first season in Philadelphia, and was one of the league's best pitchers over the final month when he was 5-1 with a 2.06 ERA in his last seven starts. But he allowed 12 runs and 19 hits in 10 innings in his last two starts this spring, and continued his struggles into his seventh opening day start.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Kenny Rogers helped get Jim Leyland a win in his first game as the Detroit Tigers manager.
Carlos Guillen also homered for the Tigers, and Fernando Rodney got the save in his first game as closer in place of injured Todd Jones.
Rogers combined with two relievers on a four-hitter, Chris Shelton homered twice and the Tigers began the season with a 3-1 victory over the Kansas City Royals on Monday.
Leyland started his professional baseball career in 1964 as a minor league catcher for the Tigers.
Rogers left Texas after a stormy season in which he was suspended for 13 games after shoving two television cameramen.
The 41-year-old left-hander gave up one run and three hits in six innings, struck out five and walked none in his first opening-day victory since 2000.
He faced the minimum nine batters through the first three innings, with a double play wiping out Angel Berroa's third-inning infield single. RBI gave up a tying, two-out RBI single to Reggie Sanders in the fourth.
Joel Zumaya made his major league debut when he relieved Rogers to start the seventh, giving up a leadoff walk and Doug Mientkiewicz's two-out single, but he escaped when he got Berroa to ground into a force-
Rodney worked a hitless ninth for his 13th career save.
Jones, who returned to Detroit during the offseason, aggravated a hamstring injury last weekend and went on the disabled list.
Shelton hit two go-ahead solo homers off Scott Elarton, Shelton's first career multihomer game, and finished 3-for-4.
Shelton's drive into the left-field stands in the fourth put the Tigers up 1-0, and he lined a pitch from Elarton just above the fence and just inside the right-field foul pole with two outs in the sixth to make it 2-1.
Only a leaping grab by second baseman Mark Grudzielanek on Shelton's eighth-ingling liner kept him from going 4-for-4.
Guillen's solo homer in the eighth against Andrew Sisco gave Detroit a 3-1 lead.
Elarton, Cleveland's No. 5 starter a year ago, gave up two runs and seven hits in five 2-3 innings.

I Like Apples won the game in overtime, 61-59. Ringel stepped up to hit the big shot that sent his team to the championship game in Allen Fieldhouse.
On the play, Ringel's brother, Jordan Ringel, Fort Worth, Texas, junior, pulled down a rebound and spotted Eli on the right wing. Eli hit a three-pointer to give his team the lead.
As far as playing a leading role with his older teammates, Eli said it never created any problems. Eli said the chemistry with his older brother contributed greatly to the team's accomplishments.
"We've played with each other before so it elicited, but we do yell at each other a lot and get in each other's faces," Eli said.
Despite this, the results of both brothers playing starting roles were positive.
"They pushed each other to play harder and made sure that each of them were doing everything necessary for the team to succeed," said Shane Arnold, Milwaukee sophomore and teammate.

KANSAS CITY
BY DOUG TUCKER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — On the eve of a sales tax vote that could decide the fate of professional sports in Kansas City, George Brett and Buck O'Neil sat together under a tree and urged a crowd to vote yes.
Radio stations ran a tape message from NFL hall-of-famer Marcus Allen warning that the Chiefs could wind up in Los Angeles if the two proposals were not adopted.
Even Hollywood got into the
Shortly before the Detroit Tigers and Kansas City Royals opened their season Monday in a full, festive stadium, actor Chris Cooper, a Kansas City native and Academy Award winner, made his pitch for passage of the taxes.
In the meantime, a loosely organized cadre of opponents of the three-eighths of a cent sales tax and an accompanying use tax were feeling confident.
"We are very encouraged that supporters of these taxes have been conducting polls," said
Richard Tolbert, a Democratic politician and small-business man. "The fact they have not announced the results of those polls tells me their side is losing."
That the vote would be close was one thing they all agreed on.
The sales tax would raise $425 million over 25 years for renovating and refurbishing Arrowhead and Kauffman stadiums, which opened in 1972 and '73.
An accompanying use tax would raise an additional $200 million for a rolling roof, which would make both stadiums climate-controlled and assure the city of the 2015 Super Bowl.
An additional $50 million would come from the state. Royals owner David Glass would
Baseball has promised an All-Star game if the stadiums are refurbished, and mayor Kay Barnes says she is optimistic the NCAA would grant a Final Four to its former host city if the rolling roof is fitted over Arrowhead.

Theft from Strong Hall
BY MIKE MOSTAFFA
mmostaffa@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
When Margaret Severson's students arrived at their Strong Hall classroom early Monday morning after spring break, they saw their classroom turned into a crime scene.
Severson, associate professor of social welfare, was forced to cancel her 7:35 a.m. "Human Sexuality" course at 330 Strong because the teaching equipment had been stolen.
"It was not the welcome back from spring break I was expecting." Severson said.
Over spring break, three Sharp Data projectors and various supplementary equipment were stolen from rooms 330 and 334 Strong Hall. The equipment, estimated to be worth $11,600 according to police reports, belonged to the Instructional Development and Support Department.
Some of the professors who teach in those rooms were forced to alter their lesson plans.
Scott Winer, Atlanta junior, has a communications class that meets at 330 Strong Hall.
SEE THEFT ON PAGE 4A
KU Public Safety Office Captain Schuyler Bailey could not release any information about possible suspects in the case. The investigation is under way.
Winer's class was not canceled, but the nearly 200 students, who usually use an electronic buzzer system, handed in their answers to the daily quiz on note cards. "The quizzes in class are sort of like Who Wants to be a Millionaire." Winer said.
REFERENDUM
Voters say 'no' to rolling roof
Jackson County Mo. residents voted to not approve the building of a rolling, retractable roof in Truman Sports Complex. The roof was to enclose either Arrowhead or Kaufman Stadium.
If the roof was approved, it would have boosted the chances of Kansas City hosting a Super Bowl, an MLB All-Star game and a Final Four all from 2010 through 2015.
Lisa Linoyac/KANSAN
The chances for these events to remain in Kansas City are now uncertain. However, chances for a Final Four are now bleak. Arrowhead Stadium is the only site in Kansas City that has the capacity to host a Final Four. With no roof to enclose the court, it would not be able to host the event.
KU fans may not have the opportunity to see the Jayhawks play in a Kansas City hosted in 2013, as it was previously slated.

Service ready for queries
BY FRED A. DAVIS III

KANSAN STAFFER WRITER
Have a question about the University of Kansas? Want to know how many gallons are in a cubic foot or when an underclassman can withdraw his name from the NBA draft?
The KU Info walk-up booth was previously located in Anschutz Library, where the "booth" was actually a desk that doubled as the Anschutz reference desk.
KU Info program director Curtis Marsh said it was important that the booth's new location be in a gathering place where students, faculty and staff meet. Thus, the Union seemed to be the ideal fit.
A University committee made
In its new digs on the fourth floor in the Kansas Union, the KU Info walk-up booth is back in the business of answering questions after closing last December. The booth opened Monday.
The KU Info Web site and phone number were operational during that time, although a person answering the phone was replaced by a recorded message. The actual human element was absent.
KU Info employs eight students who work two- to four-hour shifts. The new employees
Michele Eodice, a member of the exploratory work group that looked into how KU Info could best serve the University, said that combining student information services and services for student success were the most beneficial.
underwent six to eight hours of training to handle the variety of questions, which primarily center on KU, yet can stray to queries such as Chancellor Hemenwav's height and weight.
up of University departments and one student decided what the new model for KU Info should be and where it would be located.
Poised to be a service that provides to students, faculty, staff, alumni or anyone who has a question about the University of Kansas, KU Info should help with the KU experience, Marsh said.
In existence for 36 years, KU Info was initially implemented as a "rumor control" in 1970 by University administration to squelch rumors that swirled about the campus as it faced constant student protests.
She said those two helped to create a broad information foundation. They also fund KU Info.
So far, it seems to be working.
Eodice said the three facets of KU Info are the walk-up booth, Web site and phone number.
Given the technological advances made during KU Info's existence, information that was kept in books and index cards is being moved to a computer database. Marsh said that it was the most important change in KU Info.
Kate Bendfeldt, Leawood freshman, stopped by the booth to ask about major fairs.
"I saw there was KU Info right there, so I might as well stop and see," she said.
Bendfeldt, who is has not decided on a major, was disappointed to find that there were no career fairs going on in the Union. However, she was pleased with the service she received from KU Info.
The KU Info walk-up booth is located on the fourth floor of the Kansas Union next to room 400. The booth is open 12 to 9 p.m. Monday through Friday. You can also call KU Info at 864-3506 or access its Web site, kuinfo.lib.ku.edu.

Eight probable cases and one confirmed case of mumps have been reported in Douglas County by the Lawrence-Douglas County Health Department.
At least two 19-year-old University of Kansas students living in student housing have been tested for the disease, said Patricia Denning, chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center. One female student tested
positive for the disease during spring break and remained home in Illinois until she was no longer contagious. Seven of the eight probable cases are in 19- to 26-year-olds.
Diana Roberts from the Department of Student Housing said that if Watkins suggested that housing distribute information to its residents, the department would, but so far such a request had not been made.

'Jesus loves porn stars'
Bible request rejected
LOS ANGELES — A Bible publisher has rejected a request by an anti-pornography Internet ministry to put its "Jesus Loves Porn Stars" brand on the covers of the New Testament.
Corona-based XXXchurch
com ordered 10,000 editions of the Bible from the American Bible Society, one of a few companies licensed to publish the Scriptures. The ministry hoped the cover would help them triple distribution.
The nonprofit Bible publishing company told the ministry in a letter that the wording in the slogan would be "misleading and inappropriate" for the Bible.
The publisher offered several alternatives, but XXXchurch. com pastors Mike Foster and Craig Gross turned them down.

GOVERNMENT Republicans look to replace DeLay
HOUSTON — Republicans hoping to fill the seat of former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay stepped forward Tuesday as the 11-term lawmaker said he would resign, leaving the Texas district whose boundaries he drew. Within hours of DeLay's announcement, several Republicans contacted party officials about getting on the Nov. 7 bailout. Among the potential candidates: Harris County Judge Robert Eckels, who worked with Houston's mayor to help the city absorb Hurricane Katrina refugees, and the county's tax collector-assessor, Paul Bettencourt.

Associate vice provosts named

mricketts@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Marles Roney, vice provost for student success, announced Tuesday that Lori Reesor and Frank DeSalvo would become the new associate vice provosts for student success, effective this summer.
Each of the associate vice provests will directly oversee departments that are a part of the office of student success. Those departments include the Department of Student Housing, the Fushman-
"In general, my priorities would be to meet as many students as possible, and to learn about their experiences at KU and what the offices of student success can do to enhance their experiences and facilitate their graduation," Reesor said.
"I think that working with students in the classroom just gives you a different perspective of student issues and student concerns."
ing to and asking questions of students.
Sophomore Advising Center and the KU Writing Center.
Reesor will fill a position that has been vacant for about a year and DeSalvo will succeed Rich Morrell, who is taking the position of vice president for student affairs at Central Missouri State University. DeSalvo is the former interim dean of students and the director of Counseling and Psychological Services, which is part of Student Success.
Lori Reesor New associate vice provost
Reesor was chosen after a national search. Roney said that the choice was made with input from the search committee and others who had interviewed the final candidates.
"Based on the feedback that others provided and the experience that Lori had, she stood out as the strongest candidate," Roney said.
Reesor said that she hadn't been told which departments would be reporting directly to her, but until she found out, she wanted to focus on listening the lapel pin that identifies members of Congress.
Reesor received her doctorate in educational policy and leadership from the University of Kansas and has held various positions here in the past. She said she would love to teach when she comes to the University.
"I think that working with students in the classroom just gives you a different perspective of student issues and student concerns." she said.
Katherine Nemeth Tuttle, associate vice provost for student success, has worked with both Desalvo and Roney in the past.
"I am just thrilled that Lori and Frank are my two new colleagues," Nemeth Tuttle said. "I respect both of them tremendously, and I look forward to working with them."
She said that the office of student success had not been working with a completely full staff for most of the past three years and that having the two positions filled would help tremendously. She said that it would give the office a chance to work on more long-term goals like recruitment and retention of students in addition to the departments that it normally oversees.

Georgia Rep. slugs Capitol cop
Johannesburg, South Africa
BY LAURE KELLMAN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
McKinney says she took action in self defense after the officer inappropriately touched her. A spokesman for the congresswoman did not respond Tuesday to a request for comment.
The six-term Georgia Democrat says the issue is not about whether to obey a police officer's order, whether she hit him or the fact that she was not wearing the lapel pin that identifies members of Congress.
W. A. Harewood/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — House Republicans, reacting to the confrontation last week between Rep. Cynthia McKinney and a Capitol Police officer she is accused of hitting, pressed for a resolution Tuesday to commend the police force for its professionalism.
McKinney is alleged to have hit a uniformed police officer who did not recognize her and asked her to stop on her way into a House office building.
Democratic leaders did not defend McKinney or her charge of racial profiling.
Rep. Cynthia McKinney (D-Georgy) gives a thumb-up on Monday during a news conference in Atlanta. African-American clergy and lawmakers came to the defense of McKinney during the news conference. Capitol Hill police have referred a scuffle between one of their officers and McKinney to the U.S. Attorney's Office in Washington.
"I don't think any of it justifies hitting a police officer," said House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi of California. U.S. Rep. Steny Hoyer of Maryland, the No. 2 Democrat in the House, said all lawmakers, staff members and visitors in the building have a responsibility to obey Capitol Police. "I think we all should cooperate fully." he said.
U. S. Rep, Mel Watt (D-North Carolina) chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus, had no comment, a spokesman said.
As a federal prosecutor considered whether to press assault or other charges against McKinney. Republicans were introducing their resolution.
"I don't think it's fair to attack the Capitol Police and I think it's time that we show our support for them," said U.S. Rep. Patrick McHenry (R-North Carolina) a sponsor of the measure. Ignoring a police officer's order to stop, or hitting one, "is never OK." McHenry said.
She and her lawyers have said that a series of confrontations between McKinney and U.S. Capitol and White House law enforcement officers who don't recognize her points to a pattern.
"The issue is racial profiling," McKinney, who is black, told CNN Monday.
The resolution being introduced Tuesday came as McKinney awaited U.S. Attorney Kenneth L. Wainstein's decision on whether to press any criminal charges against her.
The measure expected to be introduced late Tuesday, co-sponsored by U.S. Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart (R-Florida) would not specifically mention McKinney or the confrontation, McHenry said.
Instead, sponsors said, it would commend the Capitol Police for their professionalism and recognize the challenge of protecting the vast Capitol campus from terrorism and other threats while keeping it open to tourists.
"Every day they exhibit honor.
courtesy and professionalism" Diaz-Balart said in a statement.
McKinney says that has not been her experience. She says Capitol Police officers have a long history of failing to recognize her and asking for identification — a pattern she says is racist and in any case highlights a security problem in one of the most well-guarded buildings in the country.
Republicans suggest the incident says something negative about the Democrats. A spokesman for House Speaker Dennis Hastert (R-Illinois) said that a Democratic lawmaker hitting an officer does not support the minority party's claim of a commitment to security.
Pelosi last week called that argument "pathetic." She added that she would not make a big deal of what she termed "a mistake" by an officer.
The lack of Democratic support for McKinney is notable. She and her lawyer, James Myart Jr., said on Friday they expected several members of Congress to join her at a news conference that day at Howard University.
None did.

KU Public Safety Office Captain Schuyler Bailey could not release any information about possible suspects in the case. The investigation is under way.
Winer said that he thought
there was a chance that the person who stole the projectors from room 350 Strong Hall was familiar with the room. He said the projector was built into the ceiling and anyone who tried to remove it would need assistance.

Mumps
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
The mumps cases in Kansas follow a larger outbreak in Iowa, where the Iowa Department of Public Health has reported 300 confirmed, probable and suspected cases. Today's mobile society means infectious diseases can spread easily and impact states surrounding those with larger problems, said Sharon Watson, Kansas Department of Health and Environment spokeswoman.
Sixty-eight percent of the Iowa cases occurred in people who were fully immunized against the disease. Most Douglas County cases occurred under the same circumstances, according to the Lawrence-Douglas County Health Department. The
University requires documentation of two previous MMR — measles, mumps and rubella — vaccines prior to enrollment, Denning said.
This year's mumps strain resembled one that hit England several years ago, she said, and was included in the MMR vaccine. The recent cases could be related to "waning immunity" — after a certain amount of time, the antibodies can no longer adequately repress the virus, Denning said. Permanent immunity can be achieved only after a bout with the disease.
Symptoms of mumps include painful swelling around the jaw line, fever, headaches and general aches and pains. Mumps can be present for 12 to 25 days before the first symptoms appear. Complications include
viral meningitis, deafness and testicular inflammation, which are rare but possible, Denning said.
Infected people are contagious from seven days before the first sign of symptoms until nine days after the symptoms disappear. As a viral infection, mumps spreads like the common cold or influenza, including through coughing, sneezing and shared drinks. The crowded living situations and lecture halls of university campuses make those diseases easier to spread, Denning said.
Only two cases have been reported in Kansas outside of Douglas County, Watson said. Usually three or fewer cases are reported per year.

Amyx, Hack take new positions
CITY GOVERNMENT
BY KRISTEN JARBOE
kjarboe@kansan.com
KANSAST WART WRITER
The Lawrence City Commission elected Commissioner Mike Amyx mayor and Commissioner Sue Hack vice mayor in a 5-0 vote Tuesday night.
in regard to his term, which started immediately, Amyx said there was a long list of projects, issues and wishes that he and the commission would look into. Some of these items include the repair and maintenance of streets and homelessness — but the two items he wants to prioritize with the commissioners are the Lawrence Public Library expansion downtown and the economic development of Lawrence.
"I respect differences of opinion. I will ask you to be involved with these issues and be a sounding board." Amyx said to fellow commissioners.
they appreciated the work of former mayor Dennis "Boog" Highberger, who will continue to serve as a city commissioner.
Amyx and Hack both said
"I've had the great opportunity to serve as vice mayor." Amxx said. "You have no idea how much energy Boog has. He is somebody I've grown to admire. We have faced a lot of interesting issues in the last year, but I found one issue that was important: If he believes strongly in something, get out of the way. And he made sure I knew how important it is. I'm glad to have called you my mayor."
As a token his appreciation for Boog, Amyx gave him a plaque with the city seal and a mayor's gavel.
In Highberger's State of the City address, he said that despite any disagreements that the commissioners may have had, it had been an honor to serve as mayor and a privilege to serve the city with the commissioners.
Highberger regarded this
past year as one of transitions with some challenges and disappointments. During his term he dealt with the Boardwalk Apartments fire, retirement of four city officers with 115 years of service between them, the expansion of the Lawrence Public Library, care of the homeless, community housing, the South Lawrence Trafficway, allocating $1 million for maintenance of city streets and the recent microburst, among other issues.
"Lawrence is growing and will continue to grow," he said. "But we have to make sure it's a balanced growth."
Hack thanked the city staff for "a roller coaster of a year" and commended them for their knowledge and patience.
"We have lots of opportunities in front of us," she said. "There are lots of things on our plate, but I think that's very fortunate."

The Multicultural Affairs committee has been working on this initiative all semester as a way to promote multicultural education on campus. If the referendum is passed in next week's Student Senate elections it would add about $70,000 to the Senate budget.
Should the Student Activity Fee be increased $1.50 per semester and 75 cents in the summer term to fund Multicultural Education Enhancement?
"This referendum is a poorly written and dishonest push to help a section of student groups at the expense of the whole body of organizations," Jones said. "Coalitions don't want to talk
Craig said the money from the fee increase would be used to fund multicultural education events. It would allow any organization that puts on an event that falls under the multicultural definition to receive more funding after going through Senate for general funding.
Nolan T. Jones, Pittsburg junior and Senate communications director, said that this particular referendum was the most misleading item on the ballot and would not promote a positive multicultural education at the University.
about the damage this fee does for fear of sounding 'against multiculturalism' but to oppose this referendum is to support everyone's cultures instead of Multicultural Affairs Committee's hand-ricked few."
Jones said that this initiative was saying that multicultural events were more important than other student events. He said it would damage the relationship among student groups by fostering arguments about whether or not the event falls under the guidelines of being multicultural.
Craig said the small increase the initiative was asking for was not a big trade-off for what the University would be gaining from better multicultural events. She said that by giving those organizations more money the group would be able to spend less time fund raising and more time advertising and making the event even better.

Should the Student Activity Fee be increased by $20 to fund women's and non-revenue intercollegiate sports?
Earlier this semester the Athletics Department gave a committee that was reviewing student fees two proposals to increase the women's and non-revenue sports fee. One would increase the amount by $20 and the other by $5. The committee decided to support the $5 increase and take it to a vote in Student Senate. The fee increase of $5 was failed during Senate meetings.
Not giving up, the Athletics Department decided to collect signatures and get the other original proposal of $20 a semester put on the ballot for the students to vote on.
jm Marchiony, associate athletics director, said the fee increase was needed so the Athletics Department could better support the teams that aren't making their own money.
Of the $20 increase, $15 would be used to build a boathouse for the women's rowing team, which it does not have. He said that the project would cost between $2 million and $3 million, so the Athletics Department would have to raise whatever amount of money the fee didn't cover. He said that if it failed to raise that extra amount, the Athletics De-
parment had made a commitment to the Senate that it would refund $15 of the fee to each student.
that would affect many students.
Marchiony said he thought students would be willing to support the fee because they would want to be able to see competitive women's and non-revenue sports teams. He said that the fee was needed to keep the University up-to-date on the Title IX code that says all equipment, scholarships and general funds for men's and women's sports teams must be equal. If the University fails to meet that requirement, the federal government can withhold funds
Nathan Ladd, Effingham senior and junior/senior CLAS senator, said that he did not support the fee increase. He said that because the Athletics Department was a corporation, it was able to raise large sums of money through such things as endorsements without student support.
"I think asking us to pay for a rowing facility that will only benefit a small percent of people on campus is not money well spent," Ladd said.

Should the Student Activity Fee portion of the Student Senate rules and regulations be reduced by $46?
Students pay $294.50 a semester in required campus fees. If this referendum passed, that amount would be reduced to $248.50, saving students $46 a semester.
Dennis Chanay, Paola sophomore and presidential candidate for the $100 Fee Cut coalition, said he had been working on this initiative is because he thought students were paying too much, and the burden was keeping some students from attending the University.
He said that many of the fees students
are paying were for things that students shouldn't even be involved with. He used the Campus Environmental Improvement fee as an example, and said that trusting that money to student politicians who don't know about grounds-keeping didn't seem right.
This particular issue has brought up many questions and has people wondering if something like this could actually hurt Student Senate in the long run.
Stephanie Craig, Edmond, Okla.
senior and holdover server for Del
ta Force, said that if this referendum passed, it would be devastating to many important resources on campus. She said she thought the people who wrote the initiative were trying to take a stand against how much students pay at the University, but that the services they were cutting were too important.
"I think students need to vote no on that and preserve what students have here at KU," Craig said.
To learn more about the different campus fees and what they are used for, visit kucampusfees.org, a site created by Delta Force to help educate students before voting on this issue.
Chanay said he didn't expect the
fee cut to hurt Senate. He said that it hurt his trust in the organization to hear that Senate wouldn't be able to do anything after the 15 percent cut because they already had "millions of dollars at their finger tips."

Book recounts residential life
BY RACHEL PARKER

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Many students going into their freshman year of college have heard residence hall stories from previous years, whether they be from older friends, residence assistants or fellow residence hall residents. The experience has been said to be irreplaceable.
A new book, highlighting the memories of University of Kansas alumni and their experiences in student housing between 1919 and 1966, is going to be available in KU Bookstores. Friday.
Fred McElhenie, researcher and writer for the Department of Student Housing, collaborated with more than 900 former KU student housing residents during a span exceeding five years so he could write "Making Do and Getting Through: KU Co-ops, Halls and Houses 1919-1966."
McElhenie said he wanted the students from each generation at the University to understand what life was like for the other, and for the department to recognize the enhancement student housing might have on its residents' lives.
Some students said their favorite college memories came from experiences in the residence halls. Friends Renae Saathoff, Lawrence sophomore; Beth Sholin, Kansas City, Kan., sophomore; and Danielle Wright, Ellsworth sophomore, all laughed as Wright told a story about her residence hall last year.
Wright and her suitemates tried to unclog her shower in Templin with the help of a drain remover given by one of her suitemate's fathers.
"It made like three floors smell like rotten eggs," she said.
Wright and her suitesmites met through random room assignment, and became good friends.
Shomin, who became friends with most of the people on her floor in Oliver, agreed that the residence halls were the best way to meet friends.
While some entries in the book are humorous, others are touching. McElhenie's was moved by a story contributed by Mou-Hui King, who talked about one New Year's celebration he spent at the University:
"For some of the boys, that was the last New Year's Eve before going off to war, for a few it was to be the last New Year's ever."
The development of bigger and newer residence halls like the ones we see today was caused in part by the enrollment boom that came after World War II.
McElhenie said the book contained recollections from the cream of the crop; athletes, World War II veterans, the Mayor of Washington D.C. and a Princeton professor, to name a few.
McEllenbie has been at the University since 1958. He has held numerous positions, including the dean of men, assistant director of Centennial College, director of residential programs and associate director of Student Housing for Residence Life.

Wanted: roommate to exchange sex for rent
BY DAN GOODIN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — In Atlanta, an online ad offers a room in exchange for "sex and light office duty." In Los Angeles, a one-bedroom pool house is free "to a girl that is skilled and willing." And in New York City, a $700-a-month room is available at a discount to a fit female willing to provide sex.
On the widely used Web site Craigslist.org, some landlords and apartment dwellers looking for roommates are offering to accept sex in lieu of rent.
"They have to be attractive. I don't let just anybody come into my house," said Mike, a man who answered the phone at the New York City listing but declined to give his last name
and refused to say whether he has, in fact, collected the rent under the sheets.
The offering of shelter for sex is older than, well, real estate itself.
But the online come-ons are franker than anything you might see in the newspaper classifieds, because they are not edited by Craigslist, and perhaps also because the anonymity of the Internet often causes people to shed their inhibitions.
Trading housing for sex is a form of prostitution. But the police aren't kicking down doors.
Paul J. Browne, a deputy police commissioner in New York, said investigators have found that the Craigslist ads are frequently "little more than a form of voyeurism that didn't result in an actual exchange of sex for rent."
Craigslist provides mostly free classifieds for apartments, used cars and just about everything else in more than 200 cities in 35 countries.
"I usually rent the room for 600, but if you are really ticklish and willing to trade being tickled for the extra rent then we have a deal," writes a gay man offering a $350-a-month room in the San Francisco Bay area.
An ad for a townhouse near Bradenton, Fla., seeks a "female that likes to be nude. Nothing more expected."
rent-for-sex ads.
"This is only a silly sideline adventure of mine," the man, who would not give his name, wrote in an e-mail. "I feel a little embarrassed about it."
One man said he became friends with a bisexual man who answered his ad but did not end up taking the room. The same user said a man visiting from Russia answered his ad and they shared dinner and a bottle of wine, but that was it.
It is unclear how much success people have had with their
The Associated Press e-mailed more than two-dozen other people who placed ads, but most declined to be interviewed.
deemed to be more than Jim Buckmaster, chief executive of San Francisco-based Craiglist, said the company forbids ads that break the law, but his staff of 19 could not possibly police all postings. Craiglist instead relies on users to flag ads they find offensive. If enough people agree, the ad is removed
people "Tens of millions of users are a much more powerful force in examining the more than 8 million classified ads per month than any staff could be," Buckmaster said.
NBC "Today" show co-hosts Katie Couric and Matt Lauer appear during a segment of the television program Monday in New York's Rockefeller Center. Published reports in some New York newspapers Monday said that Couric has reached a deal in principle to anchor "CBS Evening News."
Mike, who offered the room in New York, said his ads are frequently flagged and removed, resulting in a cat-and-mouse game in which he puts them back up.
Tenants rights groups have accused Craiglist of skirting fair housing requirements. In February, a group called the Chicago Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law sued the Web site for publishing housing ads that excluded people based on their race, religion and sex.
Couric may leave NBC for CBS

But legal experts say Craigslist is shielded by a 1996 federal law that protects online service providers that merely pass along unedited information provided by someone else.
by someone else.
And in most states, prostitution laws apply only if the ads are followed by e-mails, phone conversations or other acts that advance the proposition.
"The mere posting itself is absolutely not illegal," said Anthony Lowenstein, a defense lawyer in San Francisco, "unless the guy who posts it or the person who answers it does something that makes it a little closer to happening."

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Katie Couric may mark her 15th anniversary as "Today" show anchor this week by making the decision to leave.
leave.
She's talking with CBS about taking over as "CBS Evening News" anchor, according to a non-network person close to the negotiations, and neither CBS nor NBC is disputing reports that she could announce a deal as early as this week.
There are still some issues left to be resolved before a deal is reached, said the person who spoke on condition of anonymity.
Couric's contract with NBC ends in May, and she reportedly needed the network's permission to begin negotiations with another network before next month. NBC's decision to grant it could be an indication that the network expects her to leave, or at least that it wants a decision before outlining its fall programming plans to advertisers next month.
curs next month.
Couric's first day as "Today" anchor was April 5, 1991, and the morning show plans to mark that anniversary on the air Wednesday. Her tenure, with Couric paired the last nine years with Matt Lauer, have brought the morning show unparalleled ratings and financial success.
Representatives for NBC, CBS and Couric would not comment Tuesday on the discussions.
Meanwhile, Meredith Vieira of "The View" has emerged as the leading candidate to succeed Couric at "Today" if she leaves, according to people familiar with NBC's thinking. Vieira, a former CBS News reporter who won a Daytime Emmy as host of "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire," has previously turned down offers to return to news since joining "The View."
since June "Today" weekend host Campbell Brown is also a candidate, along with NBC reporter Natalie Morales and "Today" newsreader Ann Curry.
reader Amir Currie,
Couric, 49, would be the first woman to be named as a sole host of a network evening newscast _ even though Elizabeth Vargas frequently has done that job alone at ABC's "World News Tonight."
That designation _ and the desire to try a new challenge after 15 years of early wake-up calls _ is said to be a powerful motivation for Couric. NBC's offer to keep her is reportedly several million dollars more than CBS's offer, but it doesn't include the anchor slot at NBC's "Nightly News," said the person close to the talks.
She likely would begin at "CBS Evening News" in September.
tember. With Bob Schieffer filling in during the year since Dan Rather's exit, the "CBS Evening News" is the only network evening newscast rising in the ratings. But it's still in third place behind NBC and ABC.
"I will be delighted if she
came," Schieffer said on Tuesday. "I think she'll be a great addition to a very good news team ... I've known Katie for years and I think the world of her."
and I think the work of "Today" hasn't lost a week in the ratings in more than 10 years.
"If it comes to an end, I'll be the first to cry." Curry told "Access Hollywood." "If she leaves, she'll be very hard to replace."

Everyone wants to make a good first impression.
The appearance of a temporary traffic control booth heralded the construction of another gateway on University grounds. The Docking family gateway at 13th Street and Oread Avenue joins the Malott gateway at 15th and Iowa streets as another aesthetic addition to campus. While both are supposed to improve the entrances to campus, the improvements shouldn't come at the cost of current students' and faculty's convenience.
Something can be said for having the gateways. As part of the Master Campus Plan, they help visitors when they're looking for and entering campus. A visually pleasing entrance puts a good foot forward for prospective students and faculty, because it shows the University is concerned with how it represents itself.
At the same time, the improved gateways don't provide a real function to the majority of the student body or faculty. They don't contain offices or classrooms or house necessary services. To be honest, they are strictly pretty to look at. With the Malott gateway, students in Templin Hall complained that they had lost a prime playing

Donna Hultine, director of the KU parking department, expressed concerns in Tuesday's The University Daily Kansasan that the relocation of the traffic control booth to 14th Street and Jayhawk Boulevard could cause car and bus congestion in front of the Kansas Memorial Union. This would be a problem to anyone trying to get on campus, but especially those here on a daily basis.
Care should be taken that while improving the University's image, the needs of the students and faculty are taken into account. Opportunities to improve how the University presents itself should always be taken, but it should also use some of these same opportunities to make those already here happy with their choice of university.

Right now in San Francisco, a city long notorious for it's loving embrace of the LGBT community. a battle is raging.
Transgender awareness crucial to ending prejudice
COMMENTARY
So why are these people having so much trouble? Discrimination. Woodward reported that though overly qualified, many transgendered individuals were snubbed in job interviews and employment applications because of their gender identity.And the lucky few that make it past these obstacles are discriminated
In the Bay Area during spring break, the cover story of the San Francisco Bay Guardian featured a photo of a dark-haired woman, the title floating above the woman's head read "Transjobless." Intrigued by the title's play on words and the bold statement, I picked up the paper and found that inside the cover an even bolder statement was being made.
Guardian reporter Tali Woodward's cover story brought to light a number of alarming statistics about the plight of transgender individuals in San Francisco's workforce. A survey of 194 transgender San Franciscans conducted by the Transgender Law Center found that only one of every four transgender individuals had a full-time job. What's even more shockingly brutal is that 59 percent of those surveyed reported that they made no more than $15,500 a year and only four percent made more than the city's median income of $61,200. An annual income of less than $15,500 in any metropolitan city like San Francisco is virtually living in poverty.
---
A 2001 U. S. Census Bureau study found that same-sex couples lived in all 105 Kansas counties, even those that were most rural and underpopu- lted. That number was a 514 percent increase from previous data, and that was five years ago. Though numbered, the Kansas transgender community faces discrimination. A Wichita Eagle article from February reported that Kansas law did not allow birth certificates to be changed to accommodate gender reassignment.
Some of this discrimination seems to stem from a lack of awareness: Statistics typically aren't kept that proclaim the cold, hard truth about the life of the LGBT community. When others don't know about injustices being done, it is hard to fight them.
I can't help but wonder, if it is this appalling in an accepting city like San Francisco, how bad can it be on the flat wheat plains of Kansas?
A week ago, on our very own campus, gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered and straight students rallied in support of LGBT awareness. Last Wednesday, hundreds of students and members of the community gathered at a performance held by Anthony Rapp, star of
"Rent." to hand out awards to both exemplary LGBT and straight individuals and to raise awareness about sexual freedom.
We shouldn't need a special week or awards night to protect sexual freedom and choice. In our own communities and around the country, people are working to face oppression and discrimination based on their sexual orientation. Whether you are gay, straight or transgender this just isn't right. What happens behind our closed bedrooms doors is our business and our business alone. No matter who you are or what you do within the confines of your own home, when the rights of one are violated, the rights of everyone are. Whether it's trangender individuals not being able to get a job in San Francisco, or your classmate facing persecution for being gay, no one should lose a job or a friend because of the choices made in the bedroom.

This doesn't even account for the fact that if more and more people have the ability to afford something (in other words, the demand curve shifts to the right) the price will rise. If the price rises, more scholarships are needed. If more scholarships are needed, tuition needs to be raised to afford the scholarships. So now that tuition is raised more scholarships are needed, and the cycle continues.

Begin learning outside the classroom
DAVID ARMSTRONG opinion@kansan.com
Yuval Noachman
It's finally time to take a breather. That's right, I'll soon be graduating and I'm taking a moment to rest before I head off into the "real world." Although I will no longer be attending class lectures, I will still have a great deal of learning to do. While attending college courses and earning a degree has provided me with many great opportunities to learn, it has really been the whole kit and caboodle of college that I have learned from the most.
School has given me some direction and insight, but most of my learning occurs outside the classroom. That's not to say that I haven't learned much from school, because I have acquired quite a bit of knowledge from textbooks and class lectures. I have learned the most, however, from the atmosphere that is prevalent in a college student's life: Parties, protests, picnics and people. A classroom is a good place to learn what would otherwise be left out of one's education. I have always thought that the most uninteresting of my school subjects to be the most important to pay attention to, because I would otherwise not take the time to learn such material. I also value the classroom education because it has given me a foundation — a home base, so to speak — for my extended learning.
Nevertheless, only so much can be truly learned, understood, felt and appreciated from a lecture or discussion. I must admit that some subjects are probably best taught in a classroom, such as math, but there is simply more to be learned than can be taught in such a setting. What is learned in the classroom is the knowledge necessary to make a living in the real world. What is learned outside of the classroom is the awareness necessary to make a world that is really alive.
While book knowledge is measurable, purpose of existence is not. I am not only talking about such hobbies as traveling, making soap, planting seeds and keeping a journal, for these are actual endeavors that are to be learned from. The therapeutic benefits of gardening and the enlightenment reached through one's travels are perplexing and in a realm other than that of schooling. Again, it is the entire package that is important. School gives us a place to start, but the world and the experiences for which it provides is the substantial educator of our souls.
So remember what Albert Einstein said: "Education is what remains after one has forgotten what one has learned in school."

HHidden just off K-10, six miles east of Lawrence near Eudora, rests the Davenport Winery — a small winery, vineyard and orchard with an award-winning selection of wines.
The Davenport Winery and Orchard opened in 1960 when C.W. Davenport and his wife Mary bought the farm in the Kaw Bottoms east of Lawrence. They planted 74 acres of peaches and six acres of apples to start an orchard.
an orchard.
Davenport's grandson, Greg, took over the operation after Davenport's health kept him from working. At the suggestion of Greg's wife, Charlee, he added to the orchard and started a winery. They went commercial in 1997 and are now one of 12 wineries in Kansas.
"We've been running ragged just to keep up," Greg said.
In the nine years of commercial wine-making, the Davenports have won awards from two prestigious wine competitions. The awards didn't come without constant hard work either in the fields taking care of the grapes, inside making the wine and keeping up shop or experimenting with new wines.
Winning Wines
They have won silver and bronze metals in the Indy International Wine Competition in Indianapolis. It's the largest wine competition outside of California in the United States, with about 3,600 entries from 41 states and 17 countries in 2004. The winners are determined by a panel of 75 judges, according to the competition's Web site.

The Davenports enter one or two wines each year by mail because the competition happens in mid-summer, when they are too busy with harvest to travel.
Charlee said they'd won silver and bronze medals, but no gold yet. They also enter their dry wines in the International Eastern Competition in Cornell, N.Y., although they've been too busy lately to enter into that competition much, Greg said.
The process of making wine is grueling. It requires year-round work and literally no vacation time. The Davenports can't leave their vineyard for more than a few days, Charlee said. She also works as an acquisition librarian at the Lawrence Public Library, and the only vacation she gets is "out there to prune" the grape vines.
The Davenport Winery makes 12 kinds of wine, from sweet to dry. It has won awards for some of its wines.
"It's a pretty intensive bit," she said.
The Davenport Winery will begin planting grapes within a few weeks. In August and September during harvesting they needed all the help they could get and opened the fields for amateurs to help pick grapes to make wine.
When they're not working in the vineyard, they're trying to keep up the shop and experiment with new grapes.
The process of making wine starts with good grapes, so the Davenportis only grow the best varieties and care for them intensively.
Science of wine
"You can't make good wine out of bad grapes," Greg said.

They crush then ferment red grapes with the skins and seeds to make红 wine. Then they use a wine press to remove the skins and seeds, and then bottle the wine. Green grapes are rarely fermented with the skins and seeds, Greg said, because those
wines are not popular except in Eastern Europe. For blush and white wines, the grapes are pressed first and then fermented without the skins and seeds. Their blush wines are made from red grapes, and their whites are made from green grapes, although they can be made with red grapes.
Greg said all wines are made dry. They just add sugar to make a sweeter wine.
He said vineyards in California sweetened their wines with juice concentrate, but a small farm like his was not able to make the concentrate.
To get a farm winery license in Kansas, 60 percent of the final product must be made from Kansas products. Greg said that his wine is made from 100 percent Kansas products.

He has taken an online chemistry class from University of California-Davis, many wine classes and studied wine history. He said he thought it was fascinating.
Charlee said that each new wine takes time to get commercially ready. The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau has to approve each label the design for their wines. Each has to have certain warnings, font sizes and other specifications.
"It's kind of like art. The more you get into, it the more you want to do it," he said.

KANSAN SENIOR SWITWRITEER
In Kansas' string of recent close losses, this certainly ranks among the most frustrating.
Despite pitching a no-hitter, junior pitcher Kassie Humphews was tagged with the 2-0 loss to Nebraska Tuesday afternoon at Arrocha Ballpark.
The jay Hawks had their chance to give Humphreys the win in the sixth and seventh innings but were unable to connect, leaving four runners stranded on base in the final two innings.
"Our pitching is not the issue right now," Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said. "We're just not scoring runs for them, we're not making anything easy."
Kansas (18-18, 1-4 Big 12
Conference) had runners on first and second base to lead off the bottom of the sixth inning, after a single by senior outfield Heather Stanley. She moved to second base after a Nebraska error put senior outfielder Nettie Fierros on first. Nebraska pitcher Ashley DeBuhr then recorded two of her 11 strikeouts, walked junior infielder Jessica Moppin and struck out freshman infielder Val Chapple to end the inning.
"We were in the sixth inning, right where we wanted to be." Bunge said. "I want my kids swinging the bat and those people, in particular, swinging the bat. For whatever reason, we didn't get it done today."
Nebraska scored its two runs off a passed ball by freshman catcher Erika Simington in the second inning and a wild pitch
by Humphreys in the seventh. The runners reached base via a hit-by-pitch and an error, respectively.
Kansas will travel to Fayetteville, Ark., to take on the Arkansas Razorbacks in a doubleheader Wednesday afternoon. Bunge said the chance to get back on the field less than 24
The Jahawks lack of offense spoiled another strong outing by Humphreys, who has struck out at least 10 batters in three games this season. In her past 17 innings on the mound, Humphreys has allowed only one hit, which came against Oklahoma State last weekend.
"I feel good out there," Humphreys said. "I still think I gave up a couple pass balls, so I'm not saying I'm doing a fabulous job, either."
hours after the loss to Nebraska helped her team.
"The best thing in the world is to get back on the field, nobody wants to go back to practice." Bunge said. "The thing about this group is they continue to handle adversity in a positive way."
Softball Notes:
The loss marked Kansas' eighth loss to a ranked opponent this season. The team has two victories against ranked teams — Florida and Nebraska — earlier in the season.
Stanley tied her season high with two hits against the Cornhuskers. It marked the fourth time she has recorded two hits in a game this season.

And even though his coach could not have been less thrilled about the boasting coming from his players after their 8-2 victory against Wichita State, coach Ritch Price let a slight smile creep across his face as he continued to talk.
Last week, the Jayhawks gave sophomore outfielder John Allman backing to his claim that his was the best team in the Sunflower State.
Randall Sanders/KANSAN
He knows this rivalry is changing, and his Jayhawks are making progress toward the top.
"He meant it in the right manner," Price said of Allman. "He's proud of being a part of the program and the steps that we've made becoming a top 25 team."
No better way to find out than simply playing again. Kansas (20-11, 4-5) travels to Wichita (22-9, 2-4) to wrap up the in-state rivalry series at Eck Stadium tonight at 7 p.m.
Although the pair faced off four times last season, twice in Lawrence and twice in Wichita, this season's claim to greatness rests on just two games.
Price said that Wichita State pitching coach Brent Kemnitz made the Shockers' schedule, and after Oklahoma State was added to its 2006 schedule, there just wasn't enough time to fit four games in against Kansas.

Five weeks after injuries tore apart their nearly-intact lineup, the Jayhawks are complete once again.
"It feels like Christmas in April right now," Baty said. "I haven't been in my bag since the accident, and it's fun just going through there and looking at what's in it. I just pulled my helmet out that I haven't used in a while. It's just great. It's great being back with the team and feeling like I can contribute."
Senior outfielder Matt Baty will play tonight.
Additionally, sophomore second baseman Ryne Price returned last weekend against

"To play five weeks without two of your best six offensive players, I think is a real compliment to the job everyone's done filling in until we could put all of our pieces back together." Price said.
Now with all of his pieces at hand, Price has to put the puzzle together. Outfielders Brock
Although Murphy's defensive talent filled the opening perfectly in center field, Baty's absence left the lineup without a lead-off hitter. Murphy struggled at the plate and could not fill that spot.
Simpson and Kyle Murphy have served as the team's main standins during the absence of Baty, who was forced to the sidelines after lacerating his kidney and spleen on Feb. 25 against Lipscomb.
"He's struggled with the bat big time," Price said. "Nobody works harder than he does and he's our best defensive player."
Price juggled the lineup and tapped Simpson to be his leadoff man. Simpson came through, posting a .300 average. Price said he may still
If that stands, senior Gus Milner would likely play center and sophomore John Allman would stay in left.
"As far as me, I just have to show up everyday, look at the lineup card and see if I'm in there or not," Simpson said. "If I'm in there then I'll do what I can to help the team. If I'm not I'll just wait for my chance."
Milner will likely move back to right and will be replaced with Baty in centerfield as time goes by.
"As long as I'm in the line up, I don't care," Milner said. "If I've got to pitch, then I've got to pitch, I guess."
start in right field on Wednesday, and Baty would be used as the designated hitter.
Whether he'll admit his excitement for the match-up or not, Baty did say at least 60 of his family members would be Eck Stadium to see his comeback.
Baty said he never looked at their schedule to deliberately try to get back for the last Wichita State game of his career, but Price doesn't believe the Wichita native for a second.
"That might be the only thing that kid has ever said that wasn't true in his life," Price said.
he would continue to check out freshman Preston Land at first. More than likely, however, the first and second combo would return to senior Jared Schweitzer at first and Price at second.
As far as adjusting for Price's return, coach Price said that

Final Four lousy
MATT WILSON

I heard a conversation between two University of Kansas students on the way to class Tuesday that summed up my thoughts on the 2006 Final Four.
In Saturday's nightcap, UCLA played LSU in a game that was even worse than the first. Not only was it a blowout, it was a low-scoring blowout. UCLA further cemented its title as America's Most Boring, playing a slow game that held its opponent to 45 points for the second consecutive game. LSU looked like it never got out of bed, much less off the bus. Ballyhooed big-man and sophomore Glen "Big Baby" Davis validated his infantile nickname, and the Tigers never got closer than 14 points to the Bruins in the second half.
Tall guy: "Did you watch the national championship game last night?"
Short guy: "No, not really.
Did you?"
Talg guy: "I watched, like, the first half. Jt was pretty boring."
Florida versus George Mason had some pre-game appeal because of the Patriots' Cinderella status and the continuation of Gator sophomore forward Joakim Noah's three-week coming-out party. The game itself, however, was less than stellar. Florida's easy victory didn't give fans hoping for a George Mason title a chance to cheer at any point in the game. The loudest person in the RCA Dome was Noah, who screams at the top of his lungs every time he gets a rebound, as if it's the biggest play in the history of college basketball.
Usually the Final Four draws great interest from every college basketball fan in the country. The tournament was great leading up to last weekend, but the final match-ups, beginning on Saturday, did not provide any excitement whatsoever and sucked the life out of those watching.
Those two disasters conspired to set up the worst title game I have ever witnessed. It was so bad, in fact, that I found myself watching the New York Yankees build a 13-1 lead against the Oakland Athletics rather than the second half of the game.

CAUTION CAUTION
STORM RECOVERY
Athletics fields 'playable'
Facilities ready for spring season after microburst
Wichita senior Greg LaRue takes photos of the KU soccer team's bleachers that were twisted and destroyed by tornado-like winds, as Wichita sophomore Abby Pastore looks over the destruction in the early morning of March 12. Pastore said they had decided to go out and look at the damage caused by the winds and were amazed at the destruction it had caused.
BY FRIG JORGENSEN
ejorgensen@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Soon after, Jim Marchiony, associate athletics director, and the Athletics Department staff trekked through the damage, evaluating what needed to be done to make the fields game-ready.
The March 12 storm that wrecked much of Lawrence and the University of Kansas campus also tore through the KU soccer, softball and baseball fields.
Susan Wachter, chief financial officer for the department, said the actual cost of all the repairs was still uncertain, but the department would likely pay around $30,000 out-of-pocket. Wachter said most of the damage would be covered by insurance.
Before the storm, the department had insured most of the sports facilities and associated equipment.
When the heavy winds hit on March 12, much of the sporting area south of Allen Fieldhouse was damaged. Hoglund Ballpark received only minor damage, but the Arrocha Ballpark was heavily affected. The bleachers behind home plate and first base were thrown through the backstop. They lay
on the infield near first base until crews removed them.
The soccer field was relatively undisturbed — there was not much equipment on the field. The bleachers adjacent to the field, however, were destroyed. The wind twisted and pushed them toward Oliver Hall.
With softball and baseball in season, those ballparks were a high priority for the department. Cleanup crews went right to work pulling bleachers and debris off the fields.
Construction crews followed up with repairs to the backstops and bleachers to make them game-ready.
Marchiony said it took about a week to get everything back to par. This allowed baseball and softball to go on without much of a hitch.
"The fields are playable," Marchiony said. He said the crews had worked as fast as possible so the damage would not interrupt the season.
Soccer has been playing exhibition games on the road. Today, the team will play an exhibition match against the Legends U-15 boys team at 5:30 at the KU Sports Complex.
Bleachers will not be available for the game, but a large turnout is not expected. The team will play the Canadian national team April 13 at Hummer Park in Topeka.

SOFTBALL Kansas sweeps Big 12 honors for first time
For the first time in team history, Kansas swept the weekly Big 12 Conference softball honors, as junior pitcher Kassie Humphreys was named Big 12 Pitcher and senior pitcher/designated player senior Serena Settlemier was named Big 12 Player of the Week.
Humphreys' earned the accolade after pitching two innings of no-hit ball in a victory against UMKC last Tuesday. She followed that performance by pitching eight innings and striking out 12 batters, only allowing one hit against Oklahoma State Saturday. It was the second time that Humphreys had earned the award.
Last week, Settlemier hit .636 for the Jayhawks, scored seven runs, drove in 13 and hit four home runs. It was the third time that Settlemier earned had the award.

Next up: Planning one of the most unique induction speeches ever.
"The first thing you do when you get that phone call is let out a little scream," Barkley said Monday after the announcement.

Barkley's reaction may bring a wince to two of his new Hall-of-Fame colleagues — Joe Dumars and Dominique Wilkins, who heard plenty of Barkley's rants on and off the court during the 1980s and 1990s.
The selection of Wilkins and Barkley seemed especially fitting because both played college basketball in the Southeastern Conference and had battled more than a decade in the NBA as two of the game's top forwards.
The other inductees are Connecticut women's coach Geno Auriemma, Italian coach Sandro Gamba and longtime contributor Dave Gavitt. All six will be inducted in Springfield, Mass., in September.

Chiefs sign free-agent cornerback Lenny Walls
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City Chiefs signed freeagent cornerback Lenny Walls on Tuesday, giving the club an experienced cornerback to play opposite Patrick Surtain.
Terms of the one-year deal were not announced.
The team was looking for help in the defensive backfield after releasing Eric Warfield last month, when it looked like the Chiefs were going to be several million dollars over the salary cap if the NFL and its players' union did not reach a labor deal.
Walls, 26, started for the Denver Broncos in 2003, but injuries limited his playing time the past two years. The 6-foot-4 cornerback started just three games in 2005 before a groin injury put him on the injured-reserve list. He was released later.
Walls is expected to compete with Julian Battle, Benny Sapp and Alphonso Hodge for a spot in the starting lineup. The Chiefs may also add another cornerback through free agency or the draft.
Warfield, an eight-year veteran, started 10 games at right cornerback last season, after sitting out the first four games for violating the NFL's substance abuse policy. He signed with the New England Patriots on Monday.
Dad's no distraction for Woods
BY DOUG FERGUSON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PGA
AUGUSTA, Ga. — The first tee shot of a crisp Tuesday morning sailed against a sunlit sky and disappeared into a bunker.
Tiger Woods' next effort wasn't much better.
He hit a pull-hook that took one hop before smacking into the trunk of a Georgia pine and landing in the second cut of rough. It was more of the same on the second hole, one drive clattering into the trees on the left, another drive sailing into the woods on the right.
Augusta National is tougher than ever, and it has Woods' attention.
Leaving the golf course can
For all the changes this year at the Masters, perhaps the biggest facing Woods is that his father is not here for the first time.
be even more taxing.
Earl Woods is too weak to travel. The cancer that returned in 2004 and spread throughout his body has taken such a toll that Woods flew across the country to California the day before The Players Championship to check on his father. Woods returned to Sawgrass and tied for 22nd, although that was more a result of poor iron play and substandard putting.
One trait he inherited from his father is a strong mind.
"I've been dealing with it for years, so nothing has changed." Woods said of his father's health.
"It is what it is, and you just deal with it. Everyone who has had a family member who lived that long, you're going to deal with it sometime. Unfortunately, it's our time now. But as far as being a distraction, no. I had plenty of time to focus on each and every shot. I just hit poor shots and nutted terrible."
Earl Woods had heart bypass surgery during the '96 Tour Championship and nearly died before doctors revived him. There were complications from surgery, and he wasn't supposed to travel that next April to Augusta for his son's professional debut in a major.
Even so, the Masters has always been a family affair.
But the father was at the
Masters in 1997, and even gave Woods a putting lesson.
"I putted great," Woods said with a smile.
Woods didn't have a three-putt that week, shattered scoring records to win by 12 shots in a watershed moment in golf, then walked off the 18th green and into the arms of his father, melting in tears.
"This has been a very special week for us as a family," Woods said.
Last year, Earl Woods managed to travel to Augusta, but was in no shape to go to the golf course. He watched on television as his son chipped in for birdie on the 16th, went bogey-bogey to blow a two-shot lead, then regrouped with a victory.

'Hawks look for supremacy
By SHAWN SHROYER
sshroyer@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
When sophomore outfielder John Allman said it, some reporters laughed it off. Did he seriously think Kansas was the best baseball school in the state? But, in reality, was it any more outrageous than declaring Wichita State the best basketball school in Kansas because it went deeper into this year's NCAA Basketball Tournament?
At least in baseball, the two schools get to settle the debate on the field. Today, Kansas has the chance to claim the title as perhaps the top baseball program in the state, but Allman didn't offer the Shockers any more bulletin board material.
"I think Wichita is a great team and, nothing against them, I just believe in what we're doing here," Allman said. "I think that we're a great team and we're going to go in tomorrow and play a good ball game."
It's hard to blame Allman for getting so excited after beating Wichita State last week. Kansas is in position to sweep the season series from Wichita State for the first time since 2000. Bobby Randall was Kansas' head coach at the time and the Jayhawks have split every season series with the Shockers since Ritch Price took over in 2003.
Wichita State also leads the all-time series against Kansas, 36-22. Though it will take Kansas years to catch up in that regard, there's no denying how big a sweep of Wichita State this year would be to Kansas.
"We want to be the best program in the state and in order to do that, you've got to be better than Wichita State." Price said
Kansas has all the momentum coming into the game tonight. The Jayhawks have won four of their past five games, while the Shockers have lost six of their past eight games. Kansas is coming off its first conference series victory of the season while Wichita State just dropped its second straight conference series.
As if either side needed any more motivation, senior outfielder and Wichita native Matt Baty is hoping to return to the Kansas lineup tonight after missing the Jayhawks' past 18 games.
"They'll have five to six thousand people there and, after you win the first one, their fans come out and support them," Price said. "They'll be trying to rally around their club."
Allman said the return of Baty, one of Kansas' co-captains, would give the team even more incentive to beat Wichita State.
"If Matt Baty's going to be back in the lineup, we're all going to be fired up."
Allman said.
With the NCAA regionals scheduled to begin in June, the schools also may be compared according to their postseason success.
Although the Jayhawks' series victory against the weekend came against another bitter rival in the Missouri Tigers, Price said he expected the atmosphere in Eck Stadium to get his team's adrenaline pumping again.
When asked to predict which team would be better in that respect by season's end, Allman held back.
"Right now we're taking it one game at a time, so we're not going to look that far ahead," Allman said.

Women's lacrosse has division title potential
BY ALEX ROSE
arose@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
The KU women's lacrosse team rebounded from a 15-5 loss and defeated Truman State, 10-7, in the second game of the afternoon on Saturday. The loss came against defending league champion Lindenwood University.
The Jayhawks completed a busy weekend by returning home on Sunday to take on division rival Nebraska.
Team captain and leading scorer Lisa Allen led the Jayhawks on offense. Allen, a Highlands Ranch, Colo., native, reached a personal milestone in
the game against Nebraska by scoring the 100th goal of her collegiate career. She became the second Jayhawk to reach this mark — and she's only a sophomore. The KU record for goals in a season is 124.
The Jayhawks used six first-half goals to earn a convincing 10-2 victory, avenging last year's loss to the Cornhuskers, which kept the Jayhawks out of post-season play.
The weekend's competition improved the team's record to 14-4 with only three games left to play in the regular season.
The Jayhawks conclude their regular season play with three games next weekend: the University of Chicago and
the University of Iowa on the road and Oklahoma State in Lawrence.
The team has enjoyed the most successful season in the history of the program, and the prospects for the future are beaming. KU women's lacrosse coach David Wiley said he attributed much of this year's success to the increased versatility of the offense.
"Last year we had two proven scorers on the team," Wiley said. "This year we have half a dozen."
Optimism for next season's team will also present an opportunity for the Jayhawks to ascend into the upper echelon of the national women's lacrosse
landscape.
"Both to help our chances at competing for national championships and to lure recruits, we do need to step up our level of opponents we schedule for next year." Wiley said.
The club needs Nebraska to defeat Missouri this weekend in Columbia, Mo., for the possibility of a division title this season. Even without the unlikely Nebraska victory, Kansas could still secure at least second place in the West Division of the Central Plains Women's Lacrosse League with a victory against Oklahoma State on Sunday.

"I do think there's a time when you've got that great a rivalry that you can play too much." Price said. "It got heated a couple of times last year when some of our guys got hit with pitches and stuff, so I think it's probably good."
Wichita State has dropped four of its past, including another series to a Missouri Valley Conference foe. The Shockers' only victory this weekend came in Sunday's series finale against Creighton in a shortened, eight-inning game.
The Jayhawks were exactly the opposite as they continued to have a great week after downing the Shockers. They took the weekend series from Missouri and have won four of their past five.
"I believe in what we're doing here, and hopefully some of our guys will take it as motivation and we'll go in tomorrow, do our best and try to win the ball game," Allman said of the claim he made.
Allman is currently the toughest out in the Jayhawks lineup. The sophomore hit .600 against Missouri this weekend and had a multiple hits in each game of the series. Throw his game against Wichita State into the mix and Allman is 9-15 with four RBI in his past four games.
"We're winning ball games and that's what it's all about," Allman said.
Junior right-hander Brendan McNamara (0-0, 3.29) will get the start on the mound again tonight. He took the hill last Wednesday against the Shockers, but this time he will face sophomore lefty Kris Johnson (2-0, 8.44). Price said Johnson may be the team's best pitcher.
Both are throwing for more than a victory. The stakes are bigger than that.
"I don't know about Johnny's claim," senior outfielder Matt Baty said. "You can believe that but you just don't say it. It's a good match-up, a good in-state rivalry. Whoever wins this gets bragging rights for the year."

I flipped back to CBS just in time to catch Florida sophomore guard Taurean Green doing some goofy, butt-shaking dance as time expired, which was the highlight of the game. (I meant the clock running out, not Green's dance.)
Maybe the hospitalization of legendary coach John Wooden before Monday's game had an effect on UCLA. Whatever the reason,
the team didn't look like it really wanted to be there. The Bruins, who relied on their suffocating defense during their run through the NCAA tournament, were sleepwalking. Florida kept stretching their lead because of UCLA's total inability to slow down the Gators' transition game.
Today, the people of Gainesville are still celebrating Florida's first national title in basketball. I wonder if any of them will still care about their Final Four victory in three weeks when the Orange and Blue game takes place. It is certain that nobody outside of Gainesville cares even right now.
Here's hoping we see North Carolina, Kansas, UCLA and some other basketball powerhouse in the Final Four next year. Only then will college basketball fans be able to get the taste of this year's atrocity out of their mouths.

Culpepper cleared of charges
BY DOUG GLASS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
AC Milan midfielder Massimo Ambrosini, left, and Lyon midfielder Florent Malouda challenge for the ball during their Champions League quarter-finals, second leg, soccer match on Tuesday at the San Siro stadium in Milan, Italy. AC Milan won 3-1 and advances to the semifinals.
MINNEAPOLIS — Quarterback Daunte Culpepper was cleared Tuesday of misdemeanor charges stemming from a boat-party scandal.
A judge ruled there wasn't probable cause to determine a crime was committed by Culpepper, one of four Minnesota Vikings accused of misdemeanor lewd conduct during the cruise last fall on a suburban lake. Culpepper has since been traded to the Miami Dolphins.
NFL
Hennepin County Judge Kevin Burke denied a motion to dismiss charges against running
back Moe Williams. His trial is scheduled for April 18.
the other two players charged, cornerback Fred Smoot and tackle Bryant McKinnie, weren't part of Tuesday's ruling. Their next hearings are Thursday.
Culpepper's attorney, Earl Gray, said, "I'm happy about it. I'm sure Culpepper is, and his family. It vindicates him from being involved in any sexual misconduct on the boat."
The quarterback didn't immediately respond to an e-mail.
Williams' attorney, Joe Friedberg, was disappointed with the judge's decision.
"I disagree with him, but
that's what makes horse racing."
Friedberg said.
Culpepper and Williams had denied any improper conduct in a hearing before Burke last month. Culpepper, who was accused of touching a dancer's buttocks, testified that he spent the cruise on Lake Minnetonka playing a dice game in the back of a boat and rejected offers from several women.
williams, accused of touching a dancer's breast, testified that a woman danced near him but he never touched her.
In explaining his ruling, Burke wrote Culpepper's version of events would clear him if true.

Fees take over senate debate
BY NICOLE KELLEY
nkelley@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Instead of asking about platform issues at Wednesday's Student Senate debate, most student questions focused on the ballot referendum to reduce required campus fees.
Jason Boots of the student political organization Ignite addresses a crowd in front of Wescoe Hall during a debate for the upcoming Student Senate elections. Several students asked questions concerning budget priorities and funding for student related activities. Elections will be April 11-12.
WWW.KANSAN.COM
THURSDAY, APRIL 6, 2006
Presidential and vice presidential candidates for the Ignite, Delta Force and $100 Fee Cut coalitions met on Wescoe Beach for the informal debate.
Dennis Chanay, Paola sophmore and presidential candidate for $100 Fee Cut, told audience members not to vote for him as a candidate at the top of the ballot. He said instead he wanted students to focus on the bottom of the ballot and vote yes for the referendum that would reduce campus fees by $46 a semester.
Chanay is running with Johnathan Wilson. Paola freshman and vice presidential candidate for the coalition. $100 Fee Cut was created for the sole purpose
of giving publicity to the referendum it supports, Chanay said.
Jason Boots and Mel Horen of Ignite and Studie Red Corn and Bridget Franklin of Delta Force also gave their opinions of the fee cut.
Franklin, Topeka senior, said she was against cutting the fees that support services such as those at Watkins Health Center. She said that it could hurt those students who can't afford health care anywhere else.
Boots, Plano, Texas, senior, said he didn't think that the $100 cut was necessary because it didn't actually affect the decision of students to attend the University of Kansas. He said that the beautiful campus and high academic standards were what made up his mind about the University and he thought that was probably the case for others as well.

Students vie for $1,500 award
BY CATHERINE ODSON codson@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Student researchers at the University of Kansas Medical Center will compete for $1,500 in award money today at this year's Student Research Forum.
More than 100 student presentations highlight this year's forum, which includes a day of research presentations, a keynote lecture and an academic workshop. The workshop, "Current Trends in Scientific Publication: The Role of Open Access," will be from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Friday in the Lied Auditorium on the Med Center campus.
The 12-minute presentations allow students to practice presenting scientific information as they will later in their careers, Nicholas Tejeda, Wichita graduate student and one of the event's student organizers, said. Students develop their research projects under the direction of a faculty member and complete what Tejeda called "not your cookie-cutter research."
For students that participate in the forum, their presentations will resemble the same format
as a national research meeting, said Joseph Bast, associate dean for graduate studies. Students present formally to a panel of faculty judges, who select the top presenter in each of 15 categories and the four schools on the Med Center campus — Allied Health, Nursing, Medicine and the Graduate School.
The forum's current structure, open to any researching student on the Med Center campus, has been in place since 1979. The event is 99.9 percent run by students, Bast said. Participating students are included on 13 committees, and are the two event cochairpersons and 107 presenters.
This year, participants registered online, and judges will enter their scores electronically. The keynote lecture and workshop presentations will be digitally recorded and archived, Tejeda said.
Students not presenting during the day sessions will present posters during the wine and cheese reception at 5 p.m. in the Varnes Center. The awards banquet will be at 6 p.m. Friday at the Intercontinental Kansas City Hotel.

Mumps count rises
HEALTH
BY FRANK TANKARD
flankard@kansan.com
KANSAN SENIOR STATE WRITER
The count of mumps cases at the University of Kansas rose to seven Wednesday, with six probable and one confirmed. Four other probable cases have been reported in Douglas County.
Patricia Denning, chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center, called the situation an "outbreak" in a press conference and said local health officials weren't sure why people who had been vaccinated were contracting the viral infection.
Kim Ens, disease control program coordinator for the Lawrence-Douglas County Health Department, said mumps could be spreading to Kansas from Iowa, where 300 cases have been confirmed as of Monday.
The KU student who has been confirmed with mumps is a 19-year-old female student living in McCollum Hall. Denning said one student with a probable case of mumps lived in Oliver Hall, and that three others belonged to the same sorority. Though she didn't say which sorority or whether they lived together.
Q&A
Denning said that the first of the seven cases at the University occurred in early February. The one person with a confirmed
Could you have the mumps?
Seven mumps cases, including six probable cases and one confirmed, have been reported at the University of Kansas, officials announced Wednesday. Here's some information about the mumps:
What are the symptoms?
Fever, swelling and ten-
derness to at least one of
the three salivary glands,
which are located below the ear, under the tongue and beneath the chin. The gland below the ear experiences tenderness most commonly.
When do symptoms occur? Usually 16 to 18 months after contracting the viral infection.
How is mumps treated?
Because mumps is a viral illness, there is no treatment and antibiotics are not effective.
Does a past mumps infection make you immune?
Yes, most likely.
How is mumps spread? Like the common cold,
case of mumps tested positive on March 19, though Denning said the University didn't find out until Monday because the student went to an off-campus doctor.
"That's just not something that docs had seen laterly," she said.
What should I do if I experience symptoms of mumps? Call Student Health Services at (785) 864-9507 or your own doctor to make an appointment.
Can mumps cause sterility?
Testicular swelling in men in 15 to 25 percent of infected men. Those who experience swelling rarely become sterile.
through saliva, the throat and the nose.
Denning said no one could be sure how many KU students had mumps because many went to doctors who don't report to the University. Ens said area doctors were caught off-guard by the mumps cases but should now be aware when diagnosing patients.
Douglas County had a large
How long do symptoms last?
They've lasted five days on average in a recent 300-person outbreak in Iowa.
outbreak of mumps from Oct. 1988 to April 1989, with 269 cases reported, Ens said. Mumps vaccines have been offered since 1967 and vaccinations are required for students attending Kansas public schools. In Iowa, 68 percent of those who developed mumps symptoms were fully vaccinated.
Denning said mumps, like other communicable diseases, is spread easily at colleges because of the proximity of students in residence halls and classes. In Iowa, college students account for 21 percent of its 300 reported cases, and the median age of the people showing symptoms is 21.
Sources: KU Student Health Services, Iowa Department of Public Health
Denning urged students experiencing symptoms of mumps to visit Watkins Health Center and to stay home from school and work.
"Do not panic," Denning said. "Mumps is an unpleasant infection. People feel bad and it hurts ... But the good new is it's not common to develop serious complications, and fatalities are very rare."

Wheelchair-accessible buses roll to campus
The Lawrence City Commission passed a proposal Wednesday night which gave the OK for the University of Kansas to receive five new Optima wheelchair-accessible buses.
The buses have lower floors than regular buses and have a powered ramp that extends to three inches above the pavement.
This allows the wheelchair to enter the bus and, because there are no stairs in the entrance,
wheelchair-users are able to ride safely from place to place.
Melissa Manning, associate director of disability resources, said that students with disabilities used a
Manning
lift van if they required assistance in getting to and from class.
Approximately 15 to 20 students per semester use the
which makes about 60 trips a day.
Federal money will cover 80 percent of the costs of the new buses. Manning said that she hoped the new buses would alleviate traffic on campus.
Some of the students will not be able to use the buses because they must be picked up from their homes because of their disabilities, Manning said.
The new buses will also serve as an express shuttle that will be
free to students on campus. Students needing a lift from class to class may use the shuttle free of charge. There will be a shuttle every six minutes.
A new Park and Ride lot is the reason the buses became a feasible plan.
The new lot will be located at 23rd and Iowa streets.
The buses will travel through Irving Hill Road, Sunnyside Avevenue, Sunflower Road and down Jayhawk Boulevard.

Jabel A. Castro-Renteria and Mario Gonzales-Tapia each were indicted on one charge of transporting illegal immigrants resulting in death and one charge of transporting illegal immigrants for private financial gain.
The Kansas Highway Patrol has said the woman died of apparent dehydration after being dropped off at rest stop along Interstate 70 with her adult son and another man.
The case is the latest in a string of human smuggling incidents in Kansas.

MARQUETTE — Marquette Mayor Steve Piper defended proposed assessments that came as a surprise to some people who received free land through a local development program in this small central Kansas community, but the City Council decided to hold off on putting them into effect.
About 20 participants in the program created by the nonprofit Marquette Development organization crammed into a small meeting room at City Hall
"That was something that maybe probably could've been communicated a lot better, but from a legal standpoint we weren't required to say anything," the mayor said.
Piper, a local grocer who helped initiate the development group's land giveaway, had said earlier that participants received notification on their title insurance policies about the cost for street and water improvements.
Facing the option of either approving the assessment charge or putting the cost on the shoulders of all taxpayers in the community of 600, the council voted 5-0 to table the issue until it meets again on April 20.
on Tuesday for an explanation of the planned $4,000 assessments they found out about in a letter last week. The charge for gravel roads and a water system in the development area could be paid off either as a lump sum or spread out over 20 years.
Piper spent most of the meeting making the case that he and
the city weren't responsible for homeowners not knowing about the assessment.
tuesday's meeting he checked the land records at the McPherson County register of deed's office.
The mayor said that before
"I wanted to make sure things were done the way I thought they were done," he said.
The Associated Press
The city's financial adviser said a decision will have to be made soon on how the note financing the improvements will be paid off. If the council decides it should come from general tax funds rather than the special assessments, it would mean a four-to-five mill increase in the property tax levy.
ODD NEWS Wisconsin-Madison called top party school
The magazine, breaking a four-year hiatus by issuing a list of top party schools, has named the University of Wisconsin-Madison No. 1 in its study of "books, babes and beer."
MADISON, Wis. - Where's the best place for a college kid to party? Right here in the heartland, Playboy magazine says.
The issue hitting newsstands Friday cites two annual parties that UW-Madison students love: a Halloween Party that
attracts up to 100,000 people and a rowdy spring block party in the heart of campus.

Bush urges fast action for new bill

g the

yhawk
BY SUZANNE GAMBOA THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Those in the U.S. before the cutoff date, an overwhelming majority, could apply for green cards if they pay fines, back taxes and learn English. Among that group, those who had spent five years in the U.S. would get an easier path to citizenship, with newer arrivals facing more obstacles.
The latest counterproposal to a bill by Sens. John M Cain, (R-Ariz), and Edward M. Kennedy, (D-Mass), would base the chance of citizenship for the estimated 11 million illegal immigrants in the U.S. largely on whether or not they were here before a yet undetermined cutoff date.
WASHINGTON — Conservative Republicans tweaked their alternative to a bipartisan guest worker proposal for illegal immigrants Wednesday as Democrats pressed for a vote that would put most of those in the U.S. illegally on a path to citizenship. President Bush urged swift action.
Those who arrived illegally after the cutoff date would be viewed as living illegally and unlikely to qualify for citizenship while in the country.
"There has to be some cutoff date. They would not have a status," said Sen. Sam Brownback, (R-Kan).
Kennedy's and McCain's measure would put immigrants here before Jan. 7, 2004, on a path toward citizenship if they maintain jobs and meet the other conditions.
Bush said the immigration bill should include a guest worker provision that allows illegal immigrants to remain in the United States to perform jobs that, he said, Americans will not perform. But he said the legislation should not include a provision that provides automatic citizenship.
"I don't know that we're going to get a bill," said Sen. Mike DeWine (R-Ohio). "It's tough."
He called on the Senate "to come to a conclusion as quickly as possible and pass a comprehensive bill."
The McCain-Kennedy bill has heavy Democratic backing and some Republican support.
Democrats have rejected previous compromise offers and gave no immediate indication that they would endorse the latest one. Sen. Harry Reid of Nevada, the Democratic leader, blocked numerous attempts by Republicans on selected amendments.
The House has passed a bill that would up border security by putting the military on the border, requiring employers to verify they've hired legal workers and make being in the country illegally a felony.
Democrats need 60 votes to overcome objections from conservatives on the immigration bill approved by the Senate Judiciary Committee that is being pushed by Reid.
The White House repeated President Bush's call for a temporary worker plan as a way to identify millions of illegal immigrants in the country.

No clear end for water lawsuit
COURTS
BY JOHN HANNA THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TOPEKA — Expenses associated with Kansas' lawsuits about water against Colorado and Nebraska aren't going to dry up anytime soon, Attorney General Phill Kline predicted Wednesday.
Kline's office disclosed that it paid Montgomery & Andrews, a Santa Fe, N.M., law firm, almost $471,000 from December 2004
though the end of 2005 for handling matters related to the two lawsuits.
"The water issue will never go away." Kline said during a news conference.
Kansas sued Colorado in 1985 arguing that Colorado was violating an interstate compact by taking too much water from the Arkansas River before it flowed into the Sunflower State. The U.S. Supreme Court sided with Kansas in 1995, but
the two states spent nearly a decade battling over what Colorado owed Kansas in damages.
Last year, Colorado paid Kansas nearly $35 million, having already been told to reduce what it took from the Arkansas.
Kansas sued Nebraska in 1998, accusing Nebraska of violating a compact governing water use from the Republican River. The states settled the case in 2002.
But Kline said Kansas will
still have legal expenses because it must monitor whether Colorado and Nebraska are complying with judicial orders or settlements. For example, last year, the Nebraska Department of Natural Resources warned that Nebraska was taking too much water.
Kline said some compliance issues are technical, involving where monitoring devices are placed and how they are calibrated to measure flow.

REFERENDUM
Down, but not out; rolling roof still an option
BY DAVE SKRETTA THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Officials favoring a rolling roof concept in Kansas City said Wednesday the plan could still be on track.
Moments after Jackson County voters decided to support a sales tax that will raise $425 million to overhaul Kauffman and Arrowhead stadiums - and narrowly defeated a tax to raise money for a proposed roof.
Chiefs owner Lamar Hunt and Royals owner David Glass have both expressed interest in revisiting the $200 million rolling roof plan, which led to assurances of the 2015 Super Bowl and the potential to host NCAA basketball championships if it were passed. But it failed, winning just 49 percent of the vote.
About $170 million of the project would have been funded by a user tax mainly affecting Jackson County businesses, with the remainder kicked in by the Chiefs.
Bob White of HOK, the design firm that developed many of the conceptual drawings, said officials didn't expect voters to approve the renovation without saying yes to the rolling roof.
While White said plans could move forward for now, the decision to add a roof must happen soon. Officials hope construction will begin after the 2006 football season, which makes August a likely time for another ballot measure.
That means a final proposal must be drawn up by the end of May, Jackson County Executive Kathryn Shields said.
Shields said voting on the two measures simultaneously - with passage of the rolling roof contingent upon passing the 3/8-cent sales tax - may have confused voters.
She also said regardless of
whether the current plan goes forward with improved publicity or a new financing plan, discussions with taxpayers and both franchises will happen soon.
Organizers from Portland, Ore., to Charlotte, N.C., who are trying to lure a major league baseball franchise were keenly aware of Kansas City's vote.
Dave Hallerud of Grain Valley, Mo., voted yes for both measures, and as he sat down along the right field line at Kauffman Stadium during the Royals' game against the Detroit Tigers on Wednesday, he pointed to the facility's cracked pavement and deteriorating state.
"They needed to do something to keep the teams here," he said. "And the roof, they'll probably try again. Lamar wants a Super Bowl pretty bad. Maybe the owners will pony up some more money."

OUR OPINION
Revised education bill does little to curb costs
PAGE 5A
Finally, the Higher Education Reauthorization Act, a bill that took three years to even reach the House floor, was passed, along party lines, by Congress. The act awaits passage of a version by the Senate and signing by President Bush.
The act was supposed to be reauthorized two years ago.
What do we college students get from the partisan, bickering-laced vote that passed the bill? Not much. The changes seem OK on their face, but don't add up to much.
Currently, students and their family must fill out an eight page Free Application for Student Aid (FAFSA) that asks tough questions like are you married, how much money do you have and what was your income last year?
Republicans passed a bill that makes it easier for families to apply for federal aid.
There is now more money in Pell Grant loans to students.
These grants go to undergraduates with need and don't need to be repaid. Yet, according to an Associated Press article, Congress doesn't give away all the money that it now allots for those grants.
The bill also has a provision
Issue: The Higher Education Reauthorization Act
Stance; The cost of education has changed a lot in the past eight years, but this bill hasn't.
that requires colleges that raise tuition more than twice the rate of inflation (i.e., the University of Kansas) to explain why. Republicans hope this will make these schools more accountable about rising costs.
Students and future students got a lot of arguing and election-year campaigning with this act instead of a plan to deal with the rising costs of higher education. At the University, the cost of tuition and fees for one semester has gone up 119 percent since this bill was last reauthorized in 1998.
Maybe it will. But students will still be paying the higher rates.
This is no time for bickering, it's a time to make some changes. Changes that make a real difference in the cost of education.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
One dollar and fifty cents. Six quarters. Fifteen dimes. A buck-fifty. That's it.
Every year, literally hundreds of students organize and put on amazing multicultural events
amazing multicultural events
— everything from Taste of Asia to Black Love Week to the Ramadan Fast-a-thon to Pride Week to the Paw Wow. These events are open to any student who chooses to come. They offer the opportunity to learn more about the people we interact with every day, issues that our fellow students face, personal prejudices, and the diversity that exists at the University.
During Student Senate elections on Tuesday and Wednesday, students will be asked to vote on Multicultural Education Enhancement, a project that the Multi-cultural Affairs Committee has been working on all semester. We are proposing an increase in the Student Activity Fee of $1.50 per semester to increase the funding available to these types of events. This will generate about $70,000, all of which will go to empower students who desire to explore cultural topics and share that with the rest of the community. The best part is that ANY student organization whose event falls under Multicultural Education (the exploration of sex, color, race, ethnicity, national origin and
sexual orientation) will be able to use these funds. This means that ANY student group that wants to host a seminar, speaker, attend a conference or plan an event will be allowed to ask for 25 percent — or more — of the cost of the event than they currently receive.
Why are these events so important? KU's community is diverse, but statistically speaking we are a white, straight university. If we want to graduate and be prepared to engage and interact with anyone we might meet in life, we need to leave ready to be citizens of the world.
The simplest way to ensure every student has the opportunity to explore multicultural issues is to provide more free events and to publicize these events better.
And when it comes down to it, $1.50 won't buy you a beer at most bars, will barely buy you a coke at Sonic and it won't get you a gallon of gas. But it will empower hundreds of students and create a better atmosphere for discussing and learning about multicultural issues — issues that affect every interaction you have with another person every day for the rest of your life.

The silent disposal of minority scholarships
COMMENTARY
Legal terrorism has struck colleges across the nation during the past three years. Since 2003, the Center for Equal Opportunity, an anti-Affirmative Action group, has sent 200 letters to colleges warning them of legal action if they didn't open race and gender based scholarships to everyone, according to a New York Times article last month. An executive of the group claimed that 150 had complied.
Other universities have opened minority based financial aid without the legal threats.
Colleges have not suddenly realized that such aid may be a form of discrimination; nor have they successfully achieved equality on their campuses. Fear drives this movement.
Then the Court struck down Michigan's undergraduate admissions policy that awarded applicants points based on race. Some have interpreted that ruling as a wedge to use against race- and gender-based financial aid at public universities.
The argument against these scholarships stems from two Supreme Court decisions. In 2003, the Court upheld race-based admissions at the University of Michigan law school, describing the process as "holistic" because it examined cases on an individual basis.
For 18 to 24-year-olds, 41.6 percent of the white population had enrolled in college in 2003, according to the Department of Education. For blacks, enrollment was 32.3 percent. Only 23.5 percent of Hispanics attended some level of higher education. These
Justifiably, colleges worry that such scholarships will be the next legal battleground for Affirmative Action.
COURTNEY FARR opinion@kansan.com
statistics include two and four year institutions.
Although the percent of each racial population in college has grown virtually every year since 1972, the disparity between them has stayed relatively stable. Most years, the white population sends roughly 9 percent more of its kids to school than the black population. The difference between Hispanics and whites has averaged about 15 percent during the last three decades.
The classic anti-Affirmative Action argument says that race-based preference is a form of discrimination. Others argue that when a policy's first criterion is race, the goal of true diversity may be missed.
Lisa Kress, director of Admissions and Scholarships, said the University of Kansas offers Endowment Meritorious scholarships that aim to enhance the diversity of the student body. She said a committee evaluates applicants based on academic criteria and looks for ethnic diversity along with other factors, such as the region a student is from, whether he or she is the first student in the family to attend college or if the student would bring unique experience to the University that would add to its diversity.
Nobody wants to be the first test subject for the next lawsuit. Lawsuits cost money, can scare endowment donors and generate
potentially bad publicity.
The Times reported, "Firm data on how many institutions have modified their policies is elusive because colleges and institutions are not eager to trumpet the changes."
Affirmative Action has been a divisive policy since JFK inserted the term into public awareness in 1961. That divisiveness is all the more reason that colleges need to make these decisions in the open and announce them to the public. Equal education for all and the disbursement of millions of dollars of financial aid are matters of the highest public concern.
Those colleges that made changes in the shadows robbed the public of a chance to weigh in on this matter. Quiet changes made at the threat of a legal sword offend not only the spirit of the Constitution, but also the purpose for which our colleges and universities exist. As college students, we learn not only in our classrooms, but from the actions of our institutions.
If race-based scholarships are fair and serve a purpose, then colleges need to defend them. Although lawyers guess Supreme Court outcomes, no one can truly predict what the inhabitants of that bench will do. The ethical path cannot always be the popular and lawsuit-free path.
If colleges believe they have better ways to increase diversity and remedy the inequities of higher education, then they should trumpet their changes to the land. Educate the masses on how you have improved the system. If, that is, you truly believe you have.

There's been a lot of talk lately about censure President Bush. However, when it comes to Congress, it seems that anything goes.
SUBMISSIONS
COMMENTARY
Take, for instance, Rep. Cynthia McKinney (D-Ga.), who is alleged to have assaulted a member of the U.S. Capitol Police. She will probably skate, despite the fact that her only defense basically equates to the explanation that the officer deserved it because he was obviously a bigot.
Evaluate facts before judgment
A good beard
JOSHUA GOETTING opinion@kansan.com
Last week, a Capitol Police officer physically halted McKinney because she walked around a metal detector and refused to stop. Her response was to attack him with her cell phone so badly that a U.S. Attorney is now considering charging her with assault and aggravated battery. Now, it is her right as a congresswoman to bypass security, but the rub lies in the fact that she was not wearing a lapel pin identifying her as congresswoman. In fact, Slate, in 2002, made references to other run-ins that McKinney has had with guards when she's attempted to bypass security without identification.
Rather than praise the officer for doing his job by maintaining tight security at the Capitol building, McKinney has already labeled the officer involved as racist and sexist. In a press conference last Friday, McKinney said, "Let me be clear, this whole incident was instigated by the inappropriate touching and stopping of me; a female, black, congresswoman."
I believe that this incident is a great illustration of how far discourse has devolved in our country. Rather than beginning with the merits of the event and claiming that the officer was acting outside of his authority or that his use of force was inappropriate, McKinney began her press conference with claims that the officer was racist and sexist. It seems to have escaped McKinney that she violated the established and well-known security procedures.
Incidents like this are all too common today. Instead of defending ourselves against others based on our merits, too many people are willing to assume the worst about anyone whom they feel has slightened them, even when the facts don't seem to support such suppositions. When even a congresswoman is adamant about faulting a police officer for doing his job and then proceeds to slander him with unsupported allegations that he is a racist, people must realize that things have gotten out of hand.
So, the next time you hear someone labeled as a bigot because they have qualms about illegal immigration or a homophobe because they don't think drag queens in front of the Union create a positive image for the University, step back and look at the facts before condemning someone for something that they're probably not.

Citizens call for query after woman dies
BY ROXANA HEGEMAN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WICHITA — Abortion foes are taking advantage of a seldom-used Kansas law that allows citizens to call for a grand jury investigation when they feel local law enforcement agencies have failed to act.
On Friday, abortion opponents plan to present Sedgwick County with a petition signed by nearly 7,000 local residents asking to convene a grand jury to look at the circumstances surrounding the death of a mentally retarded Texas woman whose family brought her to Wichita for a late-term abortion.
"The deeper we looked into this case, the more we realized there was a lack of justice — a travesty that has been committed," said Troy Newman, president of Operation Rescue in Wichita.
Dr. George Tiller's office, which performed the abortion, declined to comment on the petition or the case. Julie Burkhart, the spokeswoman for the clinic and director of the abortion rights group Pro Kan Do in Wichita, said neither the clinic nor the group could comment on the case until Wednesday.
Kansas is one of the few states in the nation where citizens can summon a grand jury if they meet certain requirements in state law. Such a petition was used with limited success by pornography opponents in Wichita last year to get an indictment against a store selling adult sexual materials.
Under state law, a grand jury may be summoned within 60 days after a petition is presented
bearing the signatures of slightly more than 2 percent of a county's registered voters, said Whitney Watson, spokesman for the Kansas Attorney General's Office.
Newman, a recent California transplant to Kansas, said he had never heard of such a law until David Gittrich, state development director for Kansans for Life, suggested it.
"It is a great tool. The legislative body had enough foresight to know the government is not always going to do its job," Newman said. "It gives the ability to citizens to deliver justice when
officials aren't doing their job."
The effort to summon a grand jury follows a ruling last year from the Kansas Board of Healing Arts that cleared Tiller for wrongdoing. While an autopsy listed complications from the abortion as the cause of death, the Board of Healing Arts, which regulates doctors, concluded neither Tiller nor his staff was responsible.
Anti-abortion groups questioned whether the board's investigation was thorough because Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius appointed many of its members and has received
financial support in past campaigns from abortion supporters, including Tiller.
"We trust the Board of Healing Arts conducted a thorough investigation in this matter and we have no further comment," said Nicole Corcoran, spokeswoman for Sebelius.
The woman, who has Down Syndrome, was 28 weeks pregnant when her parents took her to the Wichita clinic Jan.10, 2005, for an abortion. She died three days later from a massive infection. Activists contend proper medical monitoring of the woman's condition should
have found the infection and her worsening condition.
Their petition alleges violations of Kansas statutes, including involuntary manslaughter, mistreatment of a dependent adult, failure to report abuse of children and violation of abortion statutes. Its proponents contend that the woman did not have the capacity to consent to either the sex or the abortion.
If the signatures are found to be valid, a Sedgwick County judge will determine whether the petition bears the proper form to convene a grand jury, Watson said.

Battle for the best ends in a tie
BY ALISSA BAUER
abauer@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
WICHITA — The Jayhawks (20-12, 4-5) walked off the field after the final out was called in the 4-0 Shocker victory, hailed by screaming Wichita State (23-9, 2-4) fans.
"The best team in the state," they velled, "Who's the best?"
Various shouts met the defeated Jayhawks in reference to sophomore outfielder John Allman's claim last week of his team being the best club in Kansas.
Allman was not at all interested in their remarks.
"We just came out here to play today." Allman said. "I wasn't worried about what was going on in the stands."
Allman and the Jayhawks wouldn't have time to worry about the fans. The focus shifted to Wichita State freshman third baseman Conor Gillaspie.
Just a week ago, Gillaspie was the only Shocker to collect multiple hits. Wednesday night, he carried his team in an even bigger way.
In the bottom of the second, left fielder Tyler Hill took one for the team when he was hit by a pitch, followed by Gillaspie hitting a two-run shot to left field over the head of sophomore left fielder John Allman.
Gillaspie 2. Kansas 0.
"He had a great game," Allman said. "He really came out to play tonight. He killed us."
After a short rest, Gillaspie struck again. With two down in the bottom of the fourth, Gillaspie sent one over the head of newly returned Matt Batt in center field. The senior co-captain had no option but to watch Gillaspie's long fly ball sail into the grassy knoll lining the outfield wall.
Gillaspie 3. Kansas 0.
"That guy's a stud," Baty said.
"What'd he have? Three of their six hits?" He's a good player. They're a
Kansas, ranked No. 24 by Baseball America, remained quiet. Despite racking up 15 hits at Hoglund Ballpark a week ago, the Jayhawks tallied just five hits on Wednesday night.
good team."
Not that the Shockers pounded the ball on their end, either. Halfway through the game, Wichita State had three hits to Kansas' two. By the final out, each had collected only three more.
Price gave the credit to Shocker starter Kris Johnson (3-0). The winning pitcher allowed one hit in his four scoreless innings of work. Junior right-hander Brendan McNamara (0-1) took the loss for Kansas. He gave up both round trips to Gillaspie.
Wichita State players congratulate Wichita freshman third baseman Conor Gillaspie after his second home run of the game Wednesday in Wichita. Gillaspie had a homerun in both the second and the fourth inning of the game as the Shockers defeated the Jayhawks 4-0.
"I thought Johnson was the key to the ballgame tonight." Price said. "He was really good early in the game and kind of set the tone for them to use their bullpen properly."

'Hawks still undefeated Gault scores only goal
MARK DENT
mdent@kansan.com
Junior Holly Gault showed that she could follow up one of the best outings of her career with an equally impressive performance Wednesday night.
Gault, who scored five goals and dished out two assists in Kansas' previous game, scored the Jayhawks' only goal with about two minutes left in the second half, tying the Kansas City Legends U-15 Boys Team 1-1. With the tie, the Jayhawks moved to 1-0-2 in the spring season.
Kansas' lone goal started on a defensive stop of the Legends, who had controlled the ball for most of the second half. The Jayhawks kicked the ball down field before the Legends could regroup on defense.
As the ball traveled in the air, Gault charged toward the Legends' keeper, who misplayed the ball as it curved slightly in front of him.
The goal by Gault was the lone offensive highlight for Kansas throughout the match.
The Legends continually attacked the Kansas defense, but the Jayhawks played physically, knocking several Legends players to the ground and keeping them from scoring. The defense was anchored by freshman goalkeeper Julie Hanley, who played the entire game.
The keeper barely touched the ball before Gault brushed by him and knocked it into the open net, tying the game.

When the season ends, basketball reporters don't disappear — they just start creating best-of lists. These quotes have all been collected during the past year of covering Kansas coach Bonnie Henrickson and the women's basketball team. Hopefully you'll have as much fun reading them as I did writing them down.
Henrickson, on senior forward Crystal Kemp's sitting on the bench with foul trouble against Northeastern:
"They just struggled to guard her one-on-one. They guarded her well when she was sitting next to me."
After the Jayhawks made only 8-of-32 shots in the first half against Iowa State:

Kansas wins close games in doubleheader
BY MARK DENT
mdent@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
Kassie Humphreys found out that the best way to get something done was to get it done herself.
The junior pitcher backed up a solid pitching appearance on the mound by producing the game-winning run at the plate against Arkansas in Wednesday night's 1-0 victory in the second game of a doubleheader.
1
Kansas lost two days ago despite a no-hitter from Humphreys. She ensured the Jayhawks would not lose again on Wednesday.
"Kassie's been throwing the heck out of the ball lately." Kansas coach
Tracy Bunge said. "She really helped herself out today, too."
It was the top of the seventh inning when Humphreys helped herself out. Senior shortstop Destiny Frankenstein, had two of the Jayhawks' three hits for the game, led off the inning with a single and advanced to second on freshman third baseman Val Chapple's sacrifice bunt. Freshman outfielder Stevie Crisosto struck out, and then Humphreys stepped up to the plate.
Humphreys hit a sharp grounder to the shortstop who overthrew the ball to first base.

Crystal Kemp spent last weekend in Boston at the WNBA pre-draft camp. Kemp was not among the 42 players chosen Wednesday.

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
Kansas senior forward Crystal Kemp was not chosen in yesterday's WNBA draft in Boston.
During the three-round draft, 42 players were chosen by the 14 WNBA teams.
The Big 12 had four players taken during the draft, headlined by Baylor forward Sophia Young who went to San Antonio with the draft's fourth pick. Also in the Big 12 South, Texas Tech guard Erin Grant went to Seattle in the third round. Two Missouri players were drafted. Guard LaToya Bond was picked up in the second round, and center Christelle N'Garsanet was drafted in the third round.
The first pick in the draft went to Minnesota, which chose Seimone Augustus, a guard from LSU.
With Kemp not chosen, former Jayhawk Jennifer Jackson remains the last Kansas player chosen to play in the WNBA. She was picked in the third round in 2001.
In Kansas history, there have been seven players who have played in the league, most notably Lynette Woodard, Tamee Dixon and Angela Aycocka.
Kemp was among the 40 players chosen to participate in the WNBA pre-draft camp in
Boston on Monday to work out for WNBA scouts. Players from the teams in the Final Four as well as some other players who were drafted did not attend the camp.
If Kemp wishes to stay involved with basketball, her options include playing basketball overseas or moving into coaching, which is something she had previously expressed an interest in doing.

Augusta National increases course length
BY DOUG FERGUSON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
But this Masters seems to contain more mystery than ever.
AUGUSTA, Ga. — One by one, players trudged up the hill leading to the clubhouse at Augusta National, then paused and gazed back at a course that by now they should know all too well.
Part of that is the sheer length. The tees were pushed back on six holes, stretching the course to 7,445 yards, the second-longest course in major championship history behind Whistling Straits (7,514 yards) two years ago at the PGA Championship.
The par-3 fourth hole now is 240 yards, requiring most players to hit fairway metal, and some players to hit a driver. The
par-4 11th is 505 yards, with trees to the right of the landing area and a pond to the left of the green ready to swallow up any mistake.
Masters chairman Hootie Johnson vigorously defended the changes Wednesday, especially at No. 11, pointing out that Bobby Jones intended the second shot to be played with a 3-iron or more.
"He (Jones) probably was hitting into a green that ran at 2 on the Stimpermeter," said Retief Goosen. "The condition of the greens now are different than they were in the 1900s. You hit a 3-iron on the front of that green, it rolls off into the water."
Not since 2001 has the Masters been contested over four days in relatively dry, fast conditions.

MLB Vice President to toss first pitch in game
WASHINGTON — Vice President Dick Cheney will throw out the ceremonial first pitch at the Washington Nationals' Major League Baseball home opener next week, the team said Wednesday.
The Nationals' first home game of the season is Tuesday against the New York Mets.
Since 1910, 12 presidents and four vice presidents have thrown a ceremonial pitch in Washington.
Last year, the capital's first with a baseball team since 1971, President Bush tossed out the first pitch at the home opener. Many fans were late to their seats because security lines at metal detectors _ installed for the president's visit
were still 20 deep when the game began.

"The Missouri kids said that Kansas doesn't have any money; they don't get practice clothes."
Henrickson responding to a reporter asking why she started Sallard against Missouri in Columbia:
"Well, with the combination of not letting Riddle post us up, and Savant. But Savant's a great perimeter post player, and Riddle is a great post perimeter player. Are you with me? So we put a post on their kid who plays the guard at the post and put a guard on their kid who plays the post that plays on the perimeter. (pauses) That make sense?"

DURHAM, N.C.—Duke University's lacrosse coach resigned Wednesday and the school canceled the rest of the season amid a burgeoning scandal involving allegations that three players on the team raped a stripper at an off-campus party.
"When it was offered, I thought it was highly appropriate," Duke President Richard Brodhead said of coach Mike Pressler's decision to resign. Pressler spent 16 seasons at Duke and won three Atlantic Coast Conference championships. Last year, his team appeared in the national championship game.
The rape allegations have roiled the campus and the city, raised racial tensions, and heightened the long-standing antagonism between the privileged students at the elite university and the poorer people of Durham.
Investigators have said the athletes are sticking together and keeping silent. No one has been charged.
The stripper is black and said her attackers were white. Investigators and witnesses have said the lacrosse players taunted her with racial slurs and insults.
Students and townspeople have marched on campus and off in recent days, angry over the school's handling of the allegations and the team members' refusal to cooperate with police.
The co-captains of the lacrosse team, which was highly ranked before the scandal, have denied that anyone was sexually assaulted at the party, as have attorneys for the players.
mail saying he wanted to invite more strippers to his dorm room, kill them and skin them. It was not clear whether the message was serious or a joke.
The university president referred to the player's e-mail in announcing the cancellation of the rest of the season. Last
That player's attorney, Glen Bachman, said Duke had suspended his client from school. Brodhead said he was the only player suspended so far.
Earlier Wednesday, authorities unsealed documents stating that hours after the alleged rape, a player apparently sent an e-
week, Brodhead suspended the team from play.
"The court released today a previously sealed warrant, whose contents are sickening and repulsive," he said Wednesday.
Later in the day, Brodhead he announced a series of steps Duke plans to take to address the allegations, including examining the culture of the lacrosse team and investigating the school's response to the scandal.

"The reason for games like this is because they are good competition," Francis said. "The boys are just much faster."

WASHINGTON — The Negro Leagues Baseball Museum in Kansas City is one step closer to becoming the nation's official museum to the sport's history.
BASEBALL
Senate gives approval to museum resolution
The U.S. Senate lateTuesday approved a resolution to give the museum national recognition that would help draw larger crowds and raise more money for collections and exhibits.
"The museum is a national destination for anyone seeking to enrich their understanding of this period in America's history," said Sen. Jim Talent, R-Mo., who sponsored the measure. "We are one step closer to providing this designation for the museum, and I am hopeful the full Congress will approve it soon."
will approve
Lawmakers passed the measure unanimously in the Senate, and it must now be approved by the U.S. House, where a companion bill was introduced by Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, a Democrat from Kansas City.
Founded in 1990, the museum is the only one in the nation devoted solely to those who played in the Negro Leagues from 1920 to 1970. More than 60,000 visitors each year come to see the site's photos, memorabilia and oral histories that document the impact segregation had on the lives of players and their fans.

Baty: Good memories despite loss

WICHITA — Wednesday was not only Kansas' final trip to Wichita this season, but the final homecoming for Matt Baty's college career.

college career.
It was also a big night for the senior outfielder, because it was his first game back after missing Kansas' past 18 games with spleen and kidney lacerations. Baty downplayed the occasion
sad:
The top of the sixth inning would be the highlight of Baty's night. In classic form, Baty saw 11 pitches before he lined a base hit under the glove of a diving Matt Brown in right field. The hit moved freshman catcher Buck Afenir to second base.
"I had a lot of family here, so it was nice, but it's just another game," Baty, a Wichita native, said.
Wichita State later picked Afenir off that inning. Baty still contributed with a stolen base that put him in scoring position
at second base. The hit and stolen base were his first since Feb. 24 against Belmont.
"It was a sloppy hit, but it felt good to be back out there and be able to contribute." Baty said.
"He gets on base tonight; he steals second base, and we haven't been able to do that lately." Kansas coach Ritch Price said.
The game started quietly for Baty. When he stepped up to the plate in the leadoff spot, the fans treated him like any other opponent. He was met with limited applause.
The at bat ended just as silently with a ground-out to sophomore second baseman Damon Sublett.
Freshman first baseman Preston Land bats early in the game against Wichita State Wednesday evening in Wichita. The Jayhawks lost 4-0 to the Shockers after struggling offensively.
"To be honest with you I was real nervous," Baty said. "I had butterflies in my stomach."
butterlines It didn't take long for Wichita State to test Baty's glove in center field. The first two balls the Shockers put in play came Baty's way and landed in his glove.
Baty was flawless in the out-field with four putouts, but his

hit in the sixth would be his lone hit of the night. Kansas made only five hits as a team.
Despite losing the game, Price said he was glad to see his opening dav leadoff hitter back in action.
"It was awesome. We have survived five weeks without him and Ryno in the lineup," Price said, referring to Baty and sophomore infielder Ryne Price. "All we've been trying to do is survive. And we knew when we got him back
we're 20 percent better with him in the lineup."

As for Baty, he certainly didn't want to lose his final game at Eck Stadium but said he would only take positive memories with him.
"Just the atmosphere." Baty said. "Just the memories of coming in here and playing in front of the home crowd."

Not so much a closer since the emergence of sophomore second baseman and closer Damon Sublett, lefty Noah Booth's reputation as the former closer precedes him. His four innings of scoreless relief proved it.
Before he entered the game, however, the Jayhawks would do their best to hang runs on reliever Kohl Nanney in the sixth inning.
Even if we had popped the bunt up, we still have two on and one out. That was a huge base running mistake."
Ritchie Price
Senior shortstop
A key mistake last week proved to be the only mistake Wichita State made.
In his third at bat in 19 games.
Freshman catcher Buck Afenir popped up in the infield in the top of the sixth. While catcher Brandon Hall, first baseman
Derek Schermerhorn and Gillasple seemed to talk amongst themselves, none discussed who would be the one to catch the ball, and it hit the ground.
Afenir was on with a single. With one on and Wichita native Baty stepping to the plate, Kansas' rally was on its way.
the senior tagged a base hit to right field under the diving glove of Brown.
Two on and none out, the Jayhawks' rally was rolling.
A popped-up bunt induced a double play, and the rally was dead.
Senior shortstop Ritchie Price popped up a bunt and Afenir had traveled too far away from second.
To make matters worse Gillaspie would not go away. In his half of the sixth, he singled up
"That was a really crucial mistake." Price said, but still acknowledged Afenir's youth. "Even if we had popped the bunt up, we still have two on and one out. That was a huge base running mistake."

Gillaspie 4. Kansas 0.
And it would stay that way. The sixth inning rally was the last one the Jayhawks put together, and the in-state rivalry in 2006 ends in a draw.
"Well I don't know if you guys read what their center fielder said in the paper, but it kind of got to us a little bit," Gillaspa said, who finished the game 3-4 with four RBI. "We knew who said it. It wasn't a big deal. Nothing against what he said, we just wanted to go out and prove ourselves — play the way we're used to playing."

Cancer doesn't change coach's sports passion
BY JIM SUHR
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SALUKI
FOOTBALL
Southern Illinois head football coach Jerry Kill works with his team in late March in Carbondale, Ill. Three months since losing part of a kidney to cancer, Kill again is guiding Southern Illinois' spring workouts.
Pamela Key Schmatenberger/ AP PHOTO
CARBONDALE, Ill. — Three months since losing part of a kidney to cancer, Jerry Kill again is guiding Southern Illinois' spring workouts the only way he knows — full throttle and no less demanding.
Once a coach, always a coach for a gung-ho guy who has benched his worries about cancer, at least for now.
"He's definitely not taking it easy by any means," said quarterback Nick Hill, a former football and basketball star at DuQuoin High who'll be a junior next season.
"It seems like he's got a new passion and is just thankful for being out there, like he's living each practice like it's his last," Hill added.
At least publicly, Kill has been a rock since last fall, when he weathered a series of seizures that included one on the sidelines in the waning seconds of an Oct. 15 home loss to Illinois State. At that time, the university attributed the seizures to an unspecified condition that occasionally manifested itself with such episodes but was not considered life-threatening.
"I feel like I'm getting better each day," Kill, 44, said Wednesday, a week after the Salukis began the yearly ritual that is spring football. While calling his bout with cancer an unfolding "process," he says "I've been going hard and strong, and hopefully that will continue."
If anything, one Saluki submits, Kill's health issues may have boldened him.
Tests revealed Kill had cancer not long after the Salukisnotched their biggest victory of last season, knocking off Western Kentucky — then Division
Since then, Kill has taken several days off to spend with his wife, "but other than that I haven't changed any." Translation: Work, work, work.
Few were told Kill had cancer, aside from the coach's family and the school's athletics director. Kill kept the secret while coaching out the rest of the season, believing the Salukis' playoffs run "kept my mind off it" and that publicly revealing the disease would distract the team.
"I haven't changed my hours, and I'm not working any differently than I've worked the previous 23 years of spring ball" at colleges in Kansas and Michigan, he said.
I-AA's top-ranked team.
The Salukis' season ended Dec. 3 with a loss to Appalachian State in the quarterfinals of the Division I-AA playoffs, and Kill had the tumor removed about a month later.
No one's challenging that.
Hill calls Kill "an inspiration."
"When you look at him and all the things he went through, the way he doesn't want anyone to feel sorry for him, taking each day like it's special — it just puts things into perspective about how lucky we are to be playing this game for fun," Hill said.
"From talking to the guys on the team, they say he's a man on a mission. His energy level and desire and passion haven't faded," said Joel Sambursky, who last season closed out his college quarterbacking career with the most passing records.
No need to remind Hill, who's considered Sambursky's successor.
Kill downplays his ordeal.
Kill downplays its outcry.
"There's a lot of people out there who have struggled a lot worse than Jerry Kill," he said.
"I'm a fortunate man."

Manager can relate to players
BY JEFF LATZKE
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
His next challenge: Manage the Oklahoma RedHawks.
OKLAHOMA CITY — Tim Ireland tried his hand as a minor-league ballplayer, got a brief try-out in the majors, made the rounds as a minor league coach and even toured Asia as a big-league scout.
RedHawks.
Ireland, 53, moves from his role as baserunning and bunting coordinator for the Texas Rangers' Triple-A affiliate into Bobby Jones' old managerial job this season.
His debut is Thursday night when the Memphis Redbirds play at the RedHawks.
Redbirds play at the Redhawk. It's the latest stop in a career that's taken him just about everywhere.
just about everywhere.
"He's learned a lot of stories," said Jason Botts, who led the RedHawks with 102 RBIs last season and played for Ireland at Double-A Frisco (Texas) for a year and a half before that.
One story stems from a rainy Kansas City day when the Royals were playing the Milwaukee Brewers.
It was May 11, 1982.
"It was 11-0, it rained for two hours and they got (George) Brett and (Frank) White and all the regulars off the field," Ireland recounted Wednesday. "I couldn't even believe they played the game. It's the seventh or eighth inning."
That's when Ireland got his chance, replacing White in the lineup.
"It was an infield single and usually it's a momentous occasion when you have your first big-league hit," Ireland said. "I can remember them rolling the ball off and about a 3 foot trail of water coming from the trail of my ball."
Little did Ireland know it would be his only hit in the majors.
The Royals went on to win 17-3 and Ireland appeared in three more games before making his final major-league at-bat against the White Sox on May 25 at old Comiskey Park.
May 25 at old Connisky Park. His career major-league stat line: 1-for-7 with three runs, one walk and one strikeout.
And although he played in only 11 big-league games, that's just one more way that Ireland can relate to his players.
He's been in Triple-A, striving to get to the majors and he's seen players from literally all over the world trying to get there, too.
"Certainly that's the goal of every player that puts on a uniform, and if you got there for a day, it's certainly memorable and emotional, too." Ireland said.

a love of science. In second grade there was a drain in my
elementary school's playground, filled with a green-gray pool
of muck that was a veritable gold mine of fascinating wildlife. I poked and prodded around that drain, playing scientist, for at least a year. The rest of the kids couldn't fathom why I would rather play in a smelly drain
than join in the kickball or red rover fun. But I loved it.And
then one day the higher-ups at my school had it covered and my future as a scientist (and my drain fun) was over before it could really begin. I still have the upmost respect for scientists and Charissa Young's article about boundry-breaking, risk-taking scientist Edith Taylor (p. 10) made me almost regret my disdain for science. Just don't ask me to solve a geometric proof.

Talking tarot
by Liz Nartowicz
The Tarot Set
A New Edition of the Classic Tarot Deck
Universal Waite
The purpose and power of reading cards
KIT LEFFLER
in high school, Alysse Doane, McClouth sophomore, started planning her week with tarot cards. Every Sunday afternoon, sitting cross-legged in her room, Doane would shuffle and cut her deck of cards. Selecting five cards by their "vibrations."
For Doane, tarot card reading is less a practice of psychic powers and more a form of entertainment and family tradition. Tracing a tradition of Tarot readings as far back as her great-grandmother, Doane and her family have turned regularly to the cards for fun and direction.
to see what her week had in store.
"it's more for guidance than fortune telling." Doane says.
The ancient art of tarot — interpreting 72 cards depicting vices, virtues and other vital forces — is shrouded in misconceptions. Blaming religion and television, psychics deny rumors of witchcraft, scam artists and the idea of a fixed destiny. Instead, these specialists claim Tarot is about counseling and personal progress. But because this card-related custom is so diversified and personalized, its
true purpose and powers ultimately are left to the individual to decide.
There are more than 1,200 types of decks and layouts.
>85 percent accuracy of a reading is considered good.
TAROT TIDBITS
Miss Cleo, the late-night infemoral psychic-found-fraud, was not the first blow to Tarot's credit. From the beginning, bad publicity has plagued Tarot, says Dawn Rothwell, card reader and owner of the Sacred Sword Spiritual Center, 732 Massachusetts St. Created during the Renaissance to help uncover life's hidden truths, Tarot soon became a scapegoat for the Christian church. To deter people from seeking questions like the meaning of life, the church quickly launched a campaign that connected Tarot to witchery, Rothwell says.
There is no exact interpretation for any card.
While the demonic association has faded, recent incidents like Miss Cleo's have once again jeopardized the credibility of Tarot. Swindlers and television are responsible for perpetuating psychic scams says Arachne, a psychic counselor in Merriam. Swindlers are not tarot readers, Arachne says; they are intimidators who continuously predict doom. By always reporting that a customer has a curse, swindlers cheat people out of money by offering to remove this fake hex, Arachne says.
As for public figures, Arachne says televised psychics such as Sylvia Brown and John Edwards hurt the psychic community through indistinctness and recklessness. They ask vague questions and give
Love advice is the second most common reason.
Most readings are done for career or financial advice
Cards are most commonly laid out in a Celtic Cross
Setting people on the right path is the true
ambiguous answers, she says. They don't care about the consequences of their predictions, she says. Instead, Arachne says, they're in it for the money rather than setting the person on the right path.
meaning of Tarot, says Lori Healy-Reed,
an alternative healer in California.
Because most people turn to Tarot
to find out why negative things are
continually happening to them, Tarot
analyzes a person's patterns and helps
change them. Tarot does not reveal an
unchangeable future, Healy-Reed says,
it only shows the direction a person's
patterns are leading them.
Because of this, Tarot is more a means of meditation than fortunetelling. Tarot helps people see where they're at and help them decide if they want to be there, Healy-Reeds says.
"Itgives them the power to change," she says. "Each time is a learning experience that enables you to know yourself better."
But Tarot does not guarantee change, says Oma Lacey, psychic reader in Topeka. Because everyone has free will, people can choose not
to change. Tarot, she says, is just the "kick in the butt" to encourage people to change and start on a path of improvement. And if that path is taken, improvement in decision-making skills, emotional states and relationships will follow. Lacey says.
As a form of healing, Tarot allows people to deal with past emotions such as anger or grief, Lacey says. Tarot perks up one's emotional state by addressing unresolved issues still affecting their current situation.
"We're not telling you anything you didn't already know," Lacey says. "We're just helping you come to grips with it."
Lacey says practicing Tarot also increases perceptiveness, which will strengthen relationships.
But not everyone believes in the healing powers of Tarot. Not even the frequent customers.
Erin Harveth, Tulsa junior, has had her cards read 12 times across the globe and says the best part of the readings is having exclusive attention for 30 minutes.
Caroline Malakis, Preveza, Greece, freshman, whose tarot hobby bordered on addiction, says it's mostly fantasy and not worth placing faith in.
Yet, the power and purpose of the cards are still debated. As Doane says, if you have to put faith in something, why not Tarot?
Advice from Arachne
Psychic counselor Arachne suggests some prep steps for choosing a psychic. Make sure you ask these four questions before booking an appointment:
1. If you can tape the session or bring a friend, if the answer is no, don't go. They're usually trying to hide something.
2. How much the reading costs. Find out if the quote is for the session or the time. If it's for the time, make sure to ask how much it will cost if the session runs long.
3. If you have to pay before the session. This doesn't always scream shady, but usually it's a steer clear sign.
4. About a refund. Your time is just as valuable as a psychic's, so if you're not fully satisfied, there is no reason to pay.

The image shows two men standing side by side in what appears to be an outdoor setting, possibly a courthouse or government building, given the formal attire and serious expressions they are wearing. Both men are dressed in dark suits with white dresses and ties. The man on the left has short hair and is wearing a cap, while the man on the right has longer hair. They appear to be engaged in a conversation or meeting.

Q & a With KRS-One
A NEW STUDY SHOWS THAT PRAYER IS AN INEFFECTIVE REMEDY FOR ILLNESS AND, IRONICALLY, MAY MAKE THINGS WORSE If the author of "Hawk Topics" are diagnosed with cancer, what are you do, please don't 10
A
appropriately known as "The Teacher," KRS-One (Knowledge Reigns Supreme Over Nearly Everyone), is the Socrates of hip-hop. According to KRS-One, hiphop began in 1972 in New York City's Bronx borough. A young man known as DJ Kool Herk, who spun records at Cedar Park, sparked a new era of music, dance, art and culture. KRS-One gave praise to hip-hop pioneer Afrikaa Bambaataa, who developed the four hip-hop pillars (peace, love, unity and having fun), when I spoke to him before his concert at the Granada on March 31.
Q: What is the difference between rap and hip-hop?
A: Rap is something we *do*, whereas hip-hop is something we *live*. The living of hip-hop produces rap. Today, rappers are imitating what they see. They aren't creating. Many of today's rappers talk about nothing but "bitches" and "hoes" and "bling-bling." That is not what hip-hop's all about.
Q: What are the major elements of hip-hop?
A: Hip-hop is the name of our creative intelligence. The four major elements are the MC, the DJ, the B-Boys and B-Girls (break dancers) and graffiti. Plus, the culture that comes with each element.
Q: What do you think of the Midwest music and hip-hop scene?
As I really like what's going on now, I've been touring the Midwest off and on for 20 years. Kansas, especially Lawrence and Kansas City, have embraced hip-hop culture, and everyone here tonight (in the audience) is hip-hop.
Q: What do we, as a community, need to do in order to gain higher recognition and respect in hip-hop?
A: Honestly, someone needs to blow up. MCs,
DJs, B-Boys and B-Girls from around here should network with us, and we can help.
Q: What do you think of rappers appearing in commercials. Are they selling out?
A: Well, I did a Nike commercial in 1995 and got criticized a hell of a lot for that. When Nike approached me, I was in a real dilemma, but I needed the money, so I did it.
Q: Why do you tour on campuses across the country?
At I give lectures at universities because I love what I do, and I want people to really hear what I have to say about hip-hop as a way of life.
Q: What about the issue of rap artists degrading women in their songs?
A: The degrading of women has got to stop.
I hold a tremendous amount of respect for women. They are the reason hip-hop is here.
I was raised by a single mom, and I owe everything to her.

Nostalgia, budget lead some to shun bars in favor of renting movies
"HEY YOUUUUU GUYYYYYYYSI" As children of the 80s, we remember the excitement and awe we felt as Sloth, the lovable misfit hero from The Goonies, slid down the sails of an abandoned pirate ship to rescue his friends from the evil Fratell family. And you can probably recite most of the lines too.
Nostalgia brings us back to cult movies like The Goonies over and over again. And for many KU students, renting classic movies keeps them indoors and on their couches most Friday and Saturday nights.
Casey Green, Lawrence senior, says it's relaxing. His girlfriend has a son, so the couple is more home-oriented, he says — they aren't as interested in going out or partying. Renting videos is an activity Green remembers from his childhood and that he says he wants to pass on to his girlfriend's son.
Watching movies was a big part of his childhood, Green says. He would imitate the movies he watched.
"Irememberbeing in kindergarten, pretending I was one of the Goonlies and beating up my neighbor's
sprinkler system because I thought I was Chunk and was digging for hidden treasure," he says.
He and his girlfriend visit their favorite rental store. Hastings, 1900 W. $23^{rd}$ St., at least twice a week. The couple will rent up to eight movies a week, especially on the weekend.
While Green watches videos to bond with his girlfriend and her son, other students find that renting videos provides a cost-efficient opportunity to entertain friends.
Weekends are the most popular times for college students to rent videos, says Maria Gonzalez, a shift manager at Blockbuster Video, 1516 W.24<sup>rd</sup> St. Some weekends, the surge of customers nearly empties the shelves, she says.
Most college students like the latest releases and comedies. Cult classics also are popular. Seven, Donnie Darko, The Big Lebowski and Snatch are rented most often, Gonzalez says.
"Sometimes I don't want to deal with going out and parking and walking and all that," says Kevin Lafferty, Overland Park senior.
Lafferty, who subscribes to the online rental service Netflix, receives eight movies per month, on average, through the mail. When he's not watching videos with his brother, Lafferty likes to entertain friends by inviting them to his apartment to watch his latest videos.
"It's an experience that costs $3 that you can share with a group," he says. Lafayette likes to invite friends over to watch videos. He thinks that it's easier to have conversations with friends at home and it's more cost-efficient than going to local restaurants or bars.
A tight budget is one reason college students rent videos, says Kristen Soper, assistant video manager for Liberty Hall Video and DVD, 646 Massachusetts St. Wanting more interaction than theatres allow is another.
"it's something that's more social than going out to a movie theater, where you can't talk and discuss the movie and you can invite a dozen people over and watch," Soper says.
"Plus," Lafferty says, "You can drink your own booze."

All hail the Queen

Edith Taylor leads future female scientists of America by example
Edith Taylor isn't thinking about the sub-zero wind blowing against her numb face. As she leads her field team across the Transantarctic Mountains, all she can think about are fossils. Finding fossils. Specifically, fossils entombed in rock-like peat. Surveying the barren landscape ahead, she trudges forward in her mountaineering boots on to the next patch at the end of the plateau. Pick in hand, Taylor takes a deep breath and swings at a hard black mass. These specimens may be able to use us about the future of global warming.
Fifty-four-year old Taylor is from a breed so rare, she might as well bleed blue. Taylor is one of the world's leading experts on plant fossils and she has explored Antarctica on eight separate occasions. She was elected a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. But, most importantly, Taylor is a female scientist in a line of work still heavily dominated by males, a fact she is actively working toward changing. In fact, the KU Women's Award Hall of Fame recognized Taylor's advocacy work and inducted her in 2004.
Taylor may be queen in Antarctica, but at the University, she's more fittingly democratic. Instead of brown bag lectures, Taylor leads brown bag discussions.
Arms crossed, salt-and-peppered hair securely bunned, she sits at the front of a classroom across from scientists diverse in age, ethnicity and gender, who come on their own time to discuss the politics of women in science.
They begin by discussing the pipeline effect, in which women drop out of their
careers on the way to the top. This is not unheard of at the University of Kansas. The number of male to female assistant professors is almost equal, 149 to 138, respectively, the Office of Institutional Research and Planning (OIRP) reported in 2005. But at the higher position of professor, women constitute only 18 percent of the faculty.
Taylor made it through the pipeline, but she says women often feel they have to choose between their careers and raising a family because the government doesn't offer enough support, like childcare or maternity leave, for female scientists to be successful at both.
"If society's brightest women are then choosing not to reproduce, our society is in big trouble," she says.
In an effort to educate KU students on the oppression of women in science,Taylor teaches the seminar Women in Science each fall. The course introduces students to scientific products, inquiry and careers as studied by feminist scholars.
Heather Burkard, KU alumna, took Taylor's seminar in the fall of 2004. She says Taylor taught everything from gender discrimination in health insurance coverage to the media's stereotypical portrayal of female scientists as spinsters. Taylor defies this stereotype by balancing teaching and researching with marriage and children, Burkard says. She hasn't seen
"I've been a real champion for getting more girls to go into science and getting more college women to go on and do more graduate work in science,"Taylor says.
many female role models in science like Taylor, which she says makes it difficult for women to imagine themselves in the field.
"We could definitely use more Edith Taylors in the world." Burkard says. "Women like her are few and far between."
Taylor's agenda to increase the number of females in the science pool seems to be working, at least with one student who took the seminar. Jennifer McNutt, KU alumna, says that learning about prominent female scientists provided her the motivation to push forward to be a cosmetic surgeon. She wants to be a role model like Taylor and other scientists she learned about in the seminar, she says.
Taylor doesn't just "talk the talk" when it comes to getting more women in science, but she also "walks the walk," as Thomas Taylor, her husband and coworker, says.
In addition to speaking out on feminist issues, Edith Taylor actively volunteers in several outreach programs to recruit future generations of female scientists. Taylor has participated in TRIO days which serve underrepresented and low-income students. She supports these young high school students, whom she sees as potential scientists, by giving them the "joy of discovery" through hands-on workshops.
Last month, Taylor volunteered at Expanding Your Horizons, a discovery program that connects women in math or science careers to girls in sixth through eighth grades.
Patty Ryberg, Omaha graduate student,
assists Taylor at these workshops. Taylor
lets the students participate in science, Ryberg says, teaching them how to prepare Antarctican fossils for the microscope while talking to them about her travels to the continent. "She really makes science exciting and accessible," Ryberg says.
The fossils Taylor uses in these workshops is not in short supply at the University. Taylor says her field teams, which collected the fossils, have added at least 200,000 specimens to the University's fossil plant collection, the largest in the world. The peat Taylor discovered in Antarctica is particularly important because it could help experts predict the effects of global warming. With carbon dioxide levels constantly on the rise,Taylor says,"the only way we can know the future of global warming is to look back at the past, to look at fossils."
The fossils are preserved in petrified peat, which looks like dark rock.
Petrified peat is akin to backyard compost turned to stone, Taylor says. The tree rings found in the peat serve as a fossil record that tells us not only how old a tree was, but also what sort of climate it lived in, she says.
Because plant life is practically nonexistent in Antarctica today, it seems unimaginable that the continent once had forests full of trees. But Antarctica, in fact, had a warm climate 260 million years ago.
Some people don't worry about global warming because it will lead to more vegetation growth in areas previously too cold to support it, Taylor says. But, as Taylor has found, the trees that grew in

Antarctica were not dense enough to be used as building materials. If trees 200 years from now are as spongy as the ones that grew in the Permian Age in Antarctica, they will be of no use.
If you asked Edith Taylor 30 years ago if she could imagine herself collecting rocks on the coldest continent on earth, she probably would have let out one of her contagious full-bodied laughs. Back then, she knew women only as nurses, teachers, artists or secretaries.
Thirty years ago, Taylor was behind a typewriter, tediously typing up reports as a secretary at a chemical abstract company. Because she wasn't challenged by her job, Taylor grew bored and quit.
She then enrolled at Ohio State University as a piano major. Indifferent to which course she would take to fulfill a science requirement, she took botany because it had the fewest lab hours. While she struggled through her piano training studies, her experience in the lab, coupled with motivating role models such as plant anatomist Kathryn Easu, convinced Taylor to switch majors. Years later, working toward a graduate degree in botany, she met Thomas — then her Ph.D. adviser, now her husband.
In 1995, the husband-wife team joined the KU faculty in biological sciences.
The University of Kansas is ideal among universities, Taylor says, because there are a lot of women working in the science departments. In the fall of 2005, the OIRP reported that 31 percent of the
biological science faculty was female which Taylor says is better than most universities.
Although gender equity has improved over the years at the University of Kansas and universities nationwide, Taylor says that an imbalance still exists, particularly in the sciences. There are 922 male faculty members and 565 female faculty members across disciplines at the University, the ORIP reports. Specifically to the natural sciences, which includes all the sciences ranging from biology to physics, only 52 of the total 212 faculty members are women, constituting about 24 percent — significantly less than the 38 percent on faculties across campus.
Thomas was there to support Taylor on her first expedition to Antarctica in 1985, and has accompanied her on seven of her eight visits. Although she was the team leader, Thomas says, questions were deferred to him not only because he was male, but also because he was older and had been in paleobotany longer.
After 11 years at the University, Taylor is living proof that a woman can have a career and a family, and succeed at both. She couldn't have done it without the support of her husband and coworker Thomas, she says.
Now that people are aware of her reputation, he says, it's a different story when they're working at the South Pole. "Now in Antarctica, she's the boss. It's her
field,"he says.
Jeffrey Osborn, professor and chair of the biology department at Truman State University, accompanied Taylor and observed her leadership on two Antarctic expeditions.
During their most recent trip to Antarctica in 2003, bad weather and logistical problems delayed helicopter and plane transport from the camp to the field sites. Taylor reorganized her field team's schedule with the six other teams' schedules to maximize their productivity, while re-coordinating transportation, Osborn says. "She's an excellent role model to both men and women alike," he says.
Some males in the field have interpreted Taylor's domineering personality as "bitty", Osborn says.
Despite the use of the word "bitch" as a derogatory term towards women, Taylor says that she has taken ownership of her reputation as the "bitch queen of the Midwest."
"Like all of us, we can have another side to our personality. Edith is charming and very engaging, and she also has a strong personality - type A," he says. "Unfortunately, in our society, if a woman comes across as assertive and with a strong personality, people may perceive that as bitchy. Edith may tell you about such a reputation, but it doesn't accurately reflect her personality."
"Society doesn't value a woman that's not afraid to give her opinion. If speaking
your mind makes you a bitch, than I'm proud to be one.If someone wants to call me a bitch for knowing my own mind, then I'll have to say thank you, yes, I am," Taylor says.
Though she's faced discrimination in the field on past expeditions, Taylor doesn't hesitate to return to Antarctica. She submitted a grant proposal to the National Science Foundation to travel there again to continue her research, but was turned down, which she says is common. Taylor is adjusting her proposal based on reviewers' comments and plans to resubmit it. If approved, Taylor will travel to Antarctica with Thomas and Ryberg next year.
As Taylor continues to trek to Antarctica to collect more specimens, she also continues her legacy as a prominent and respected scientist, not just a female one.
In the field, she attentively taps at the luminous black rocklike she begrudgingly did on a typewriter so many years before. But in Antarctica, no one tells her what to do. In Antarctica, Taylor is on her own turf. And, there, she rules.

HOW SHOULD I GO ABOUT CONVINCING MY PARTNER THAT SHE NEEDS TO TRIM HER BUSH?
— DEREK JUNIOR
Brian: Try this; go down on her, and while you're down there, act like you are trying to bite her leg to turn her on. When you do this, miss, get a mouthful of hair, and pull. She'll scream and ask what the hell you are doing. Your response should be "I tried to playfully bite you, but your pubes got in the way. Maybe if you trim your bush, that'll never happen again." If she doesn't like that idea, just put a bunch of razors in her undies drawer with a note: "Dear Susie, roses are red, violets are blue, shave your bush, or I'll break up with you."
Jessica: That's a touchy subject.
As much as I adore Brian's poem, it's not as tactful as being able to openly discuss this sort
of thing with your partner. If you're in a healthy relationship, you should be able to talk about these things without hurting the other person (most of the time). I was always taught. "If you can't talk about sex, you shouldn't be having it." and I still believe it's true. I think you should pose the suggestion in such a way that it benefits her, "have you ever thought about going bare?" I hear it increases pleasure for women ... and honestly, I think it'd be sexy. "If she responds well to that, then great. If she seems skeptical, I'd take it down a notch to just trimming instead of going bare or try using Brian's Plan A.
WHY DO GUYS LOVE GOING TO SICK ASS STRIP CLUBS? ESPECIALLY IF THEY HAVE A GIRLFRIEND? —JANINE, JUNIOR
Jessica: Correction. Not all guys love going to "sick ass strap clubs" I'm positive there are out there who care more about their relationship than hanging around with their buddies checking out some T and A they most likely never have anything to do with J think for guys with girlfriend, it's more for the social atmosphere
MY GIRLFRIEND TRIED TO USE A DILDO ON ME AND I BROKE UP WITH HER. IS THAT WRONG? —JEFF, SOPHOMORE
**Brian:** No, you did everything perfectly. If she tried to use that on you, you have the right to break up with that dirty whore. Nothing phallic-shaped should ever go near any part of an unsuspecting man. If anything does, the man reserves the right to grab the dildo and break it in half. After that, she'll never try to use a dildo on a man again.
Jessica: She disrespected you sexually without your permission. "Tried" to use a dildo on you! I'm trying to understand ... did she just whip it out and say, "they honey... close your eyes... I have a surprise for you...?" I think breaking up with her was an overreaction, but if it means that much to you, maybe it's for the best. Keep in mind that people are going to mess up, and I'm sure there will be a time when you slip something into the wrong hole too.
than anything, and trying not to be 'the guy without control over his life. Think about it: if he can't go out because his significant other disapproves he'll be 'whipped' — big loss in a man's world! it's unfortunate, but true if you have a girlfriend (the same goes for girls with boyfriends), your respect for your relationship should be outweigh what your friends will think of you if you opt out of the club. Your friend opinion may matter on some issues, but it's the two of you in this relationship, not the friends.
**Brian:** Its the same reason why we love porn, Sports illustrated's swimsuit issue and cleavage. We love gorgeous girls Women at strip clubs know how to move their bodies so well that they could give Bob Dole an injection — you can imagine what it would do for a college guy with lashing hormones. If you have issues with it either go to stripper school or deal with it. You can't eliminate everything that is important to your boyfriend. If you do, you're restricting his right to be a man. And to do that would make you a biotch.

Does sex get in the way?
The 1989 film When Harry Met Sally, starring Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan, asked whether men and women can be just friends. It won an Oscar for best screenplay.
Can men and women be just friends?
by Kristen Maxwell
Ross and Rachel started out as friends, but fell in love. So did Monica and Chandler. Even Jerry and Elaine crossed the "platonic relationship" line and slept together during Seinfeld.
So maybe Harry was right when he met Sally and concluded that men and women can never be just friends — the sex part always gets in the way.
I
The question of whether men and women can ever really be friends isn't just black and white, says Les Parrott, professor of psychology at Seattle Pacific University and a Families Northwest Relationship specialist, along with his wife Leslie Parrott.
It really depends on the people, the Parrotts say. Men gain a different level of intimacy from a friendship with women than women do from a friendship with a man, they say.
of romance for both men and women that greatly change the relationship.
"Men report a level of nurturing that they cannot get from relationships with other men,"Les Parrott says.
Emily Akers, Shawnee Mission sophomore, says it's these feelings that can ruin a platonic friendship. She says she would urge someone to not tell a friend about romantic feelings for them unless the person is absolutely sure that the feelings are reciprocated.
Hesaymen can show their weaknesses and not feel they are being judged. This intimate connection can lead to feelings
"It's happened to me before, and I ended up feeling bad that the feelings weren't mutual." Akers says. "We weren't friends after that."
Besides confessing feelings for one another, Akers also warns, sex will change relationships altogether and often ruins them. She thinks, however, that most guys are looking for laid-back girls to be friends with and not a romantic relationship at all.
Brandon, Arkansas senior, sees things differently. He admits that every guy thinks of their platonic girl friends in a sexual way at least once during the relationship.
"we guys, it hard not to," he says.
Despite differing views, Leslie Parrott
says that for most people, a "just friends" relationship is possible. However, she says, it requires a maturity and an ability to grow in ways that are not necessary with same-sex friendships.
"We've thought long and hard about this issue," she says. "We've listened to
many people's stories and read all the research. And we have concluded that yes, it is possible for these friendships to work."
So enjoy being "just friends" with the opposite sex and prove Harry wrong by not letting sex get in the way.

DYING TO SAY THIS TO YOU
The Sounds play a refreshing blend of rock mixed with 80s dance influences but, unlike a lot of the other dancey rock bands polluting the airwaves, they don't rely on the usual tricks. Part attitude, part sing-along anthems, *Dying To Say This To You* is a very good CD.
While most dance rock bands are unable to play together, The Sounds combine a solid rhythm section with driving guitar; intertwining synthesizer riffs and angry vocals to make a great sound
The album starts with a cowbell—a sure pleaser."Tony

MARLEY&ME BY JOHN GROGAN
Most of us have grown up with some sort of pet. We know what it's like to bring it home, buy it finds its place in the family and the paralyzing loss when a pet dies. In *Marley & Me* journalist John Grogan recounts the life of his yellow Labrador Marley. Marley was the first pet of John and his wife Jenny Wanting experience in nurturing before having children. The Groguans visited a breeder and picked out a rambunctious puppy. The novel recounts Marley's life with the Groguans including family vacations.
neighborhood tragedies and the births of the three Grogan children.
Besides being a fun read for those tired of English lit books, Marley is genuinely funny, mostly because a lot of us have had dogs that act similarly. Grogan affectionately calls Marley 'the world’s worst dog,' and with good reason. The enormous lab chews everything in sight terrorizes the dog suffer eats jenny’s jewelry and it terrified of thunderstorms to the point of digging holes in the ground to get away from them.
Parts of the book are also moving, such as when Marley consoles Jenny after her first pregnancy ends in a miscarriage; how he interacts with the children and when the Grogans have to say good-bye to their friend. Marley is a funny and meaningful memoir about taking responsibility, having patience, unconditional love and how families come together. In short, it's a novel about what it means to be a pet owner.

MOVIE
Slither
*Slither* is one of those movies that you can't really call *bad* without qualifying it. It's wonderfully bad, delightfully bad, marvelously god-awful.
The movie is set in a small Southern town. The citizens are a grotesque bunch, by Hollywood standards — their faces haven't been airbrushed, and their stomachs haven't been aided by liposuction.
The characters are: innocent heroine Starla Grant (Elizabeth Banks), her possessive husband (Michael Rooker) and Sheriff Bill Pardy (Nathan Fillion), who has been in love with Starla since childhood.The movie spends a lot of time setting the stage. I'm not sure why. Once the alien invasion starts, the background becomes moot.
The invader is a pulsating, prosthetics-laden space alien who fathers thousands of fleshy red slugs that get into peoples' brains by way of their mouths
(we're treated to an X-ray view of the process, in case anyone is unclear). As alien invasions go, this is probably one of the most disgusting our planet has experienced. Personally, I found the bug in Men in Black a little more repulsive, but I have a thing about cockroaches.
There are genuinely funny bits in *Slither*, though, if you're in the right mood, the whole movie will be hilarious. Just be aware that the movie is as close to being about nothing as a movie can be. At first it looks like it might develop some subplots; don't be fooled. Once the meat slugs take over the town, it's just blood, gore, body-snatched townspeople, and lots of slithering.

While the animations are nicely done and the moves are superb,it seems more should be done for initiating so much damage.
The characters have some distinction, but it isn't enough. With the basic combat moves being limited to only two buttons the definition of each of the character's fighting moves can't be expanded upon: THIS takes away from any depth this game could misses.
Character graphics are done well. The characters are smooth and the animations of the character movement aren't choppy The unlockables for the game,also give the game a definite replay value. The main problem with this game is keeping the attention of other gamers. The game is extremely easy and doesn't bave a big learning curve. Ten minutes of playing will make anyone an exceptional player The survival mode perhaps the best way to refine skills. Also,the game is very short.it takes only six minutes to complete However the 'versus mode' will bring players back for more Nanito - class II of Ninja has all the basics required for a good fighting game Unfortunately,that's pretty much all it has Gamercube

Inside man
MOVIE
I was quite entertained while watching Spike Lee's Inside Man. But part of it was because I anticipated a big-bang, shock ending — which the film didn't deliver.
Dalton Russell (Clive Owen) claims he's planned the perfect bank robbery. He and his accomplices enter a Manhattan bank wearing painter jumpsuits, take the customers and employees hostage, and force them to strip down and wear the same costume that the robbers are wearing.
The questions from the beginning are: what does Russell want? Why that bank? Why hasn't
he killed anyone? What is he so desperate for? The branch owner of the bank, Arthur Case (Christopher Plummer), thinks he knows, but he tells no one. This is clearly about more than money.
From there, it becomes a battle between the police force and the robbers. Just when the head detective on the case, Keith Frazier (Denzel Washington), thinks he's making headway, and even perhaps outsmarting Russell, he finds he's been bugged, or has been listening to a tape recording. Russell seems to have thought of everything.
So you can see why I was
anticipating a surprise ending.
The acting is superb. Owen is equally creepy and genius. Washington, whom usually seen as a dramatic, stone-cold leading hero, actually plays a somewhat clumsy, goofy, undependable detective who's out to prove he can still compete with the best. This case is pivotal for him. And Jodie Foster, whose character, Madeline White, was hired by the bank manager to keep his information from leaking, takes on her usual powerful role. She's found her niche.
This movie has all the makings to be great. Don't get me wrong — it's
very good. The plot is creative, yet not overly complicated. The characters are believable. The cinematography keeps you guessing. And there are funny parts. It doesn't take itself too seriously. I just wish the ending had tied loose ends together in a more unexpected way.

READY, SET, EAT! Competitive eating makes pigging out profitable.
Pat Bertoletti plans to get a normal job. Probably something in a kitchen. He is, after all, a culinary arts major. The problem is that, after you've grown accustomed to making thousands of dollars in a matter of minutes, typical college-student wages aren't all that satisfying.
Bertoletti, a junior at Kendall College in Chicago, is a competitive eater. Ranked $10^{th}$ internationally, he has downed 11.5 pounds of corned beef sandwiches in 10 minutes and 19 dozen oysters in the same amount of time. In 15-minute spans, he has polished off 5.25 pounds of pizza and 12.78 pounds of watermelon. For Valentine's Day this year, he celebrated by consuming almost 2 pounds of chocolate hearts in eight minutes (and won $5,000 for it).
Consider that the stomach of an average adult comfortably holds only 3 pounds of food, and that a typical meal consists of only a pound to a pound and a half — significantly less than what Bertoletti can swallow in the time span of a coffee break.
Although it will probably never be dubbed America's favorite pastime, competitive eating is growing in popularity. Like any other sport, it requires skill, training and perseverance. But it also has its risks.
From cave man to cash cow
Competitive eating has likely been around for the entirety of human existence,says Armie Chapman,chairman of the Association of Independent Competitive Eaters — ever since the days of cave people, when men would kill more than they could eat and, Chapman speculates, challenge each other to eating matches to keep the leftovers from spoiling.
In the modern world, its roots are in eating contests at fairs. The most
famous is Nathan's Famous 4th of July International Hot Dog-Eating Contest, which began 90 years ago and is still held annually at Coney Island in New York.
The sport has come a long way since then, generating phenomenal eateries like Bertoletti and receiving media attention including coverage on ESPN.
A first-piece, record-breaking finish at the GoldenPalace.net Corned Beef and Cabbage Eating Championship last month brought Bertoletti's career earnings to nearly $15,000 — not too shabby for someone who discovered his eating ability only about a year ago.
Got water?
While some competitive eaters train for contests by ingesting large quantities of food beforehand, Bertoletti prefers filling up with water. This stretches his stomach without contributing calories to his diet. Several times within a week of a contest, he chugs a couple gallons of water — each one in about 30 seconds. Occasionally, before big competitions, he does practice runs with food.
Preparing with food paid off in the Golden Palace.net Grilled Cheese Finals in February, in which Bertoletti came in third with 24.5 sandwiches in 10 minutes.
Achieving feats like this requires mental stamina as much as physical ability. In a way, competitive eating is like running a marathon, Bertoletti says. Eaters hit a wall just like runners do and have to find a way to push past it.
Just keep swallowing
"Just keep swallowing," he says. "When you hit the wall, the first thing you want to do is start over-chewing, and you have to make yourself swallow."
Super-sized portions, not super-sized eaters
Interestingly, the competitors who can eat the highest portions are far from large themselves. Takeru Kobayashi, the world's top eater, is 5 feet 7 inches tall and 132 pounds. Sonya Thomas, in second place, is 5 feet 5 inches tall and a mere 100 pounds.
An idea called the "belt of fat" theory, though not medically confirmed, seeks to explain why the best eaters are usually slim. The theory speculates that fat restricts the stomach from expanding, and therefore the eaters with the least fat are the ones who can stretch their stomachs the most.
Although Bertoletti says he isn't completely sold on the idea, any possibility that it might be true is enough to hold him to lunches of salad, fruit and cottage cheese. That, and an aversion to getting fat. You have more control over your body, he says, when you're fit.
Medical marvels or risky role models?
The belt of fat theory is just one aspect of competitive eating that hasn't been tested. Another alludes to something special about these eaters' stomachs that enables them to consume so much food.
David Metz, a gastroenterologist at the University of Pennsylvania and spokesman for the American Gastroenterological Association, would like to study competitive eaters' ability to relax their stomachs in hopes of finding a treatment for a condition called dyspepsia. Dyspepsia is equivalent to indigestion, he says. A possible cause for some cases of the disorder is the stomach's inability to stretch and relax properly after eating.
"These competitive eaters can eat like horses," he says. "Their receptive
relaxation is most likely much better than the average guy's on the street, and probably better than someone's with dyspepsia."
In addition to drawing medical interest, the sport raises health concerns. Two-thirds of Americans are overweight or obese, says Bonnie Taub-Dix, a dietitian in Woodmere, N.Y. and a spokesman for the American Dietetic Association. Competitive eating is an extreme example of a national trend to eat too much too quickly. And she says it presents health risks for the competitors, as well. Competitors could choke or rupture their stomachs, she says.
"it's asking your body to do a lot when you're asking it to digest that amount of food," she says. "Instead of putting pieces of meat into a grinder, you're putting in a side of beef all at once."
Professional contests have medical personnel on site, she points out, but some competitions take place in bars or fraternities without such supervision.
The future of (really) fast food
Chapman, the chairman of the eating association, agrees that competitive eating should occur only when safety precautions are in place. But he also endorses the value of the sport and of its ability to create laughter, as well as competition.
"Competitive eating's future is not in a sterile, completely competitive approach," he says. "Its future is in people who want to keep the lunacy and fun. What other professional sport offers that opportunity for such delicious silliness?"

DID YOU KNOW
Sleepy winks, crusties, eye boogers call them what you want, but those little pieces of dried mucus in the corners of your eyes each morning have a purpose.
Sleep seeds, as Ken Frank, an ophthalmologist (or medical eye specialist), calls them, are like miniature trash bags of irritating material like dust or pollen. They're produced by the part of the eye called the pica semilunaris. The plica secretes sticky material that collects debris and moves it away from your cornea and other sensitive areas.
"It's a normal function of the eye, not a problem," says Frank, who runs Frank Eye Center in Ottawa. Sleep seeds are more prevalent in the spring and fall when many allergens are in the air, Frank says. And be careful with removal.
"it's best to gently tease them out," Frank says. "Don't dig deep.To much digging produces more irritation and more mucus."

OF ALL THE THINGS THAT INCREASE IN VALUE OVER TIME, YOUR TOOTHBRUSH ISN'T ONE OF THEM.
A toothbrush that gets used on a daily basis (hopefully more than once) should be replaced about every three months, says Patrick Jankowski, a dentist at Jayhawk Dental, 826 Iowa St. Forturheme, it's a good idea to toss your toothbrush after you've been sick because the brush bristles will harbor bacteria, Jankowski says.

Is there a lazy-man's solution to sending your brush to the bottom of the waste basket?

DON'T CALL IT
by Marion Hixon
Why the addictive exercise of yoga is good for the mind, body and soul.
"Open your mind..."
"What? Okay. Whatever."
"Now act like you're hugging a tree..."
Andrea Laws couldn't help but laugh at the tape playing on her TV. At the same time, she felt her body stretch. Okay, maybe she could warm up to yoga.
And slowly, she did. After hearing about it from her older sister two years ago, the Ottawa sophomore now
practices three to four times a week to Denise Austin videos.
Yoga is an age-old exercise catching on with students like Laws.
Stephanie Krehbiel, an instructor at Bodyworks Downtown, 13 E.8th St., says the number of students in her classes, especially graduate students, is constantly growing. Doctors are recommending the exercise more readily as a way to heal injuries or improve existing medical conditions, Krehbiel says.
When talking with yoga converts, it
Yoga poses extend a set of muscles in a certain position, holds for a few seconds, and then relaxes, which is known as static stretching. "It's not true that you have to twist yourself up into these ungody positions," Goodman adds. "Contracting and relaxing movements slowly make the body strong, more flexible and will help create long, lean muscle." Yoga differs from exercises like weightlifting or running, which develop short, thick muscle.
"It works a great deal to strengthen the core muscles in the abdominal and solarplexus areas," Goodman says.
So what exactly does yoga do for your body?
need is a tape, book or yoga instructor, Laws notes that there's a good chance you may laugh a lot the first time you try it. "Some of the exercises seem ridiculous at first, but then you realize that it's really working your body," she says.
A BUM DEAL
Stephanie Krehbiel,
Lawrence yoga instructor,
knows the dangers of
overstretching and feeling it
in the end:
"I have a tendency, when
I'm not careful, to strain my
piriformis muscle, which
is in the rear end. There is
nothing worse than being.
In the middle of teaching a
class and realizing that I've
essentially pulled my butt.
Sometimes I can switch to

if it really hurts it's hard to

becomes evident that the exercise is addictive. After seeing a window sign advertising upcoming yoga lessons, Corrine Goodman signed up. Thirty-six years later, she's still practicing yoga and is now the Director of Curriculum and Instruction for the Yoga Association of America. She recommends the exercise for all ages and body types, noting that you don't have to be young and supple to practice it.
Katherine Wiley's first yoga experience was at a free-trial class offered by her

gym. She had been exercising with a Pilates video prior to attending. During the class, the Lawrence freshman was calmed by the soothing music and inspired by the 60-year-old women doing inversions and head-stands around her. The art form captivated her and she has been practicing ever since.
"There's always going to be stress in your life,
While it helps to relax the body, lengthen muscles and advance flexibility, yoga is also known as an effective stress reducer. Eight out of 10 students attend Goodman's classes to relieve stress.
Wiley and Laws both attest to the exercise relieving much of their stress. "(Daily) tasks are easier and much less stressful," Wiley says.
but you can change how you react to it by taking a few deep breaths and doing some balance poses," she says.
One common misconception about yoga is that it's a religion. Goodman says this is not true, that it's merely a philosophy with suggested guidelines by which to live. Yamas and Neyamas are yoga's guidelines for virtuous living. They include rules such as nonviolence, truthfulness, contentment and discipline.
"Yoga is a lifelong practice for the mind, body and spirit, no matter what religion you attest to."Wiley says.
Most yoga sessions end with the instructor and students saying "namaste," in unison. The phrase literally means "I bow to you," and YogaJournal.com adds that the gesture is a symbol of gratitude and respect. While peace — one of yoga's main objectives — is often difficult to achieve with hectic schedules, it makes it all the more helpful when using yoga as a source of balance in one's lifestyle.

CONFESSIONS OF
CONFESSIONS OF A WORRYWART
1
A litany of chronic compulsions by Liz Nartowicz
At the age of 8, I was convinced I had HIV. After learning about the virus from my third-grade teacher, Mrs. Curnes, I rushed home and insisted I be tested immediately. I couldn't understand why my mom found my request so absurd. After all, she admitted she was never tested herself, so how did I know she hadn't passed HIV on to me?
Turns out I was STD-free. But that didn't stop my worrying. At 9, a lecture on the
importance of sunscreen from my dad spun me into a nerve-racking wreck. Fearing skin cancer, I lathered myself head-to-toe with Coppertone 45 every day until Christmas. I only quit then because my dad refused to maintain my sunscreen supply.
I am not a hypochondriac. I'm just what my parents call a worywart, a chronic warrior. Blame it on my earth sign, Capricorn, but I've always been compulsively concerned. And
my fears have run the gamut.
I used to worry Santa Claus watched me undress. I fretted over wasting water because I didn't want the world to run dry. I cried if I didn't finish dinner because there were starving children in countries I couldn't yet pronounce. I feared I might become pregnant without having sex like the Virgin Mary. But my biggest childhood hangup was my morbid preoccupation
with what happens after death.
GREG GRIESENAUER
I didn't believe in heaven, hell, reincarnation or any of the possibilities my Unitarian Fellowship posed. Instead, I was positive that souls remained trapped within the body after death. Because of this conviction, I concocted my own Snow White scheme to compensate. To ward off otherworldly woes, such as loneliness, I was to be placed in a glass casket, equipped with my favorite books and stuffed animals. My parents were to visit me every day, I even drew up a contract to ensure my last wishes were respected.
By high school, I'd grown out of these fears. Sadly, new anxieties replaced them. I became compulsively prepared. I walked around with a full-fledged pharmacy in my purse: tissues, tampons, Band-Aids, Prozac, Xanax, you name it. I hauled an entire wardrobe in my red Mazda MX6. Anyone peering into my windows would have thought I lived in my car.
My compulsions followed me to college. As a freshman I started counting down the days until graduation with ice fear of joining the real world I also broke out in hives for the first time because of an English paper. My face has erupted once a year since.
By my junior year I was smoking a pack of Marlboro Lights a day to calm my nerves. And in my senior year, I've worried myself to the emergency room ... twice.
Excessive worrying has been hard on my stomach, to say the least. When my stress is in high gear, I can't even keep down a cup of Campbell's. Stress has cost me a semester's worth of tuition (I had to drop out), handfuls of hair (it fell out) and an early mid-life crisis. While I was throwing up my chicken noodle soup one day I realized that if I wanted to survive I needed to change my attitude.
To make it to class — and throughout the day — I started stripping my life of unnecessary worries. I stopped trying to make my outfits match perfectly. I stopped berating myself over Bs and Cs on papers. Soon, being five minutes late for a meeting no longer sent me into a perspiring panic. By chanting my mantra, "It's not worth my health," I overcame countless quirks within months.
Deep down, I'm still a worrywart. I still catch myself worrying about global warming and growing up. I still lug an oversized green-and-white shoulder bag, brimming with pharmaceuticals. I still play out "what ifs" in my head. The only difference now is I don't allow my worrying to make me sick.
I've learned that I can't control life. I can only manage my own to the best of my ability. I am proud to say I am doing a good job at that. I gave up smoking, donated 15 pairs of jeans and even quit a job I adored to handle my stress. I'm still not ready for the real world, but at least I've quit the countdown.

Rockin' out the hill
Revival of music festival brings bands to KU
WWW.KANSAN.COM

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
After a four-year hiatus, Day on the Hill is back.
The music festival will begin at 2 p.m. Saturday on the lawn next to the Lied Center and is expected to last past 8 p.m.
The Austin, Texas, indy rock band Spoon, along with funk/soul band Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings, will co-headline the performance.
The festival will also feature local bands The Belles, Kelpie, Ghosty, and Superargo. Tickets are free for students with a KUID and $10 for general public. They are available at the SUA box office.
Day on the Hill was an all-day concert that took place annually from 1988 to 2002 and was canceled after the Student Union Activities could no longer afford to put on a quality show for the audience.
"The reason the event was no longer taking place was because of the
budget restrictions and talent fees, said Katie Smith, SUA comedy and concerts coordinator and Tucson, Ariz., senior. "As an organization we could not get the level of bands that we felt would attract people to Day on the Hill."
The event makes its return in large part because of the passing of the $5 Student Activity Fee in Spring 2005. Arthur Jones, Flower Mound, Texas, senior and senior Senator, said he remembered that student referendum because SUA's ability to serve stu-

SENATE ELECTIONS
Don't come to debate, board tells coalition
BY NICOLE KELLEY
nkelley@kansan.com
KNANLEY STAFF WRITER
The Student Senate elections commissioner suggested Wednesday to candidates of the $100 Fee Cut coalition that they "not even show up" for Monday's formal debate.
The e-mail was in response to a comment Chanay, presidential candidate for his coalition, made during the debate.
The commissioner sent an e-mail to Dennis Chanay and Johnathan Wilson of the coalition following Wednesday's debate after most of the questions from students focused on a referendum proposed by the coalition to cut $46 a semester from students' required campus fees.
The Paola sophomore told audience members not to vote for him as president. He said he was running for president only as a way to gain publicity for the referendum to cut fees.
"I encourage open discussion," said Cullin Hughes, Lenexa senior and elections commissioner. "There are certain arenas that are appropriate for this discussion, but there are others, in my opinion, that are not."
Hughes said the debate Monday was intended to discuss which candidates should be voted into office and not which initiatives should be passed.
Chanay said he and his running mate still planned to attend the debate.
He said this was an issue of
"We had
all our forms turned in and had all the signatures needed. We have the right to the debate.'

censorship. By not letting the coalition discuss the initiative, the elections commission was silencing the voices of every person who signed the original petition in support of the fee cut, Chanay said.
"We had all our forms turned in and had all the signatures needed. We have the right to the debate," Chanay said.
Burdett Loomis, professor of political science, said that as long as the third coalition, such as $100 Fee Cut, followed the rules of the debate that have been set up in advance, then they had every right to be there.
"The only reason I sent that e-mail is because it appeared to me that they were planning to use the debate to talk about something other than the issue at hand, which is the presidential and vice presidential elections," he said.
Hughes said he was not trying to censor any candidate.

Students with mumps have 9-day confinement

Emily Allred won't leave her apartment without a mask for the next week.
e Dallas junior was diagnosed with mumps Wednesday and ordered into quarantine by state health
the state health department. Officials at Watkins Memorial Health Center forbade her from attending class for at least nine days.

placement drinks, which keep her from painfully opening her mouth.
Alred is one of 16 University of Kansas students out of class this week after showing symptoms of mumps. Five of those students have been confirmed with mumps through laboratory results.
As a viral infection, mumps spreads like the common cold or influenza, which can be contracted through coughing, sneezing and shared drinks. The crowded living situations and lecture halls of university campuses make those diseases easier to spread, said Patricia Denning, chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center.
Allred said her case of mumps could be traced to the roommate of a friend, who also had mumps. Matt Iopling, Dallas junior, said that his symptoms
— a swollen lymph node and fever — had made his week anything but pleasant. Other symptoms can include headaches and general aches and pains. Jopling didn't know what mumps was until he got the disease. Like the majority of those with mumps, Jopling was also vaccinated with the MMR — measles, mumps, rubella — vaccine.
This year's strain should have been covered by the vaccine, Denning said, but after a certain amount of time, the vaccine might not adequately fight the virus. However, Allred said her most recent MMR vaccination was in 2003.
Lynn Bretz, University spokeswoman, said she expected the number of cases to continue to increase as students became more aware of mumps-specific symptoms.
Toni Bergquist, Holton freshman and The University Daily Kansan account executive, contacted everyone she had been around after she was diagnosed. She left Lawrence and her residence hall home, after her symptoms were confirmed Thursday morning. She said she planned on returning to the University after her symptoms subsided — and after the mandatory nine-day confinement period.

A female KU student was restrained against her will by four men in a vehicle parked in Daisy Hill parking lot 104, near McCollum Hall, between 3 a.m. and 3:45 a.m., Sunday. One of the four men was a KU student. The victim was given a ride home by the suspects from a downtown bar. The suspects would not allow the victim to reach the door handle. The suspects eventually let the victim out a block away from her residence and the victim was allowed to walk home.

Coyote Ugly bar creates debate
WYANDOTTE COUNTY
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
KANSAS CITY, Kan. — Wyandotte County officials, who developers say initially granted a request to bring a bar to a shopping district near the Kansas Speedway now face a legal battle, after derying a special-use application for the Coyote Ugly Saloon.
RED Speedway Inc. wants a Wyandotte County court to either overturn the commissioners' decision and approve the permit, or award more than $2 million in damages.
in the design of The Legends and that $2 million has been spent in constructing a building for the bar.
But wary that the national chain uses sex as a marketing tool, and after public outcry at two meetings earlier this year, Unified Government of Wyandotte County and Kansas City, Kan., commissioners rejected a permit required of businesses that intend to sell more alcohol than food.
RED Speedway Inc., the developer of The Legends shopping center, claims it received approval in 2004 to bring in, as a tenant, the New York-based bar known for bartop-dancing
That prompted lawyers for RED Speedway, Inc. and Coyote Ugly to file a lawsuit contending that officials acted arbitrarily. They also claim the original approval was instrumental
"I've read the lawsuit and we believe the commission's action was well within the law and based on facts and supported by evidence," said Hal Walker, chief legal counsel for the Unified Government. "We find the entire basis of their lawsuit a

little bit absurd."
County officials say the original approval was merely a letter demonstrating what kind of entertainment, stores and restaurants would be included in the development. But it did not obligate officials to issue special-use permits for any tenets that might require them.
The Legends shopping center is a $237 million addition to Village West, near the Kansas Speedway, which includes several restaurants but has yet to open a full-fledged bar.
City to begin manager-hiring process
Requests for executive search firm proposals will begin Tuesday at the Lawrence City Commission meeting at City Hall. This is the first step toward hiring a new city manager.
The firm will assist the city commissioners in the search. The proposal deadline is April 25. The firms that apply will be eligible for approval by May 2. City commissioners will meet then with the firm they select to start the hiring process.
Hiring a search firm to assist in recruiting a city manager is common for city governing bodies, said Dave Corliss, interim city manager.
The same process was conducted for former city manager Mike Wildgen, who resigned under pressure from city commissioners March 8.

Vehicle catches fire on campus
A Ford Explorer caught fire at the intersection of 14th Street and Alumni Place on Thursday afternoon.
Linus Coy, Chicago freshman, was driving the SUV when smoke started coming from the engine. A flame jumped from behind the front right tire and crept up the right side of the vehicle.
Coy pulled the Explorer over, then he and the two passengers, both KU freshmen, jumped out of the vehicle.
A firefighter told Coy that either oil or transmission fluid leaked onto the engine and then caught fire.
The Explorer sprung the sudden leak a block before the fire started.
Fraternity cycles for a good cause
Pi Kappa Phi will finish its stationary cycling fundraiser, PUSH America, at noon today on Wescoe Beach.
The fraternity has been riding day and night since Wednesday, with members switching riding shifts on the two bikes.
They are riding to raise money for people with disabilities. To make the fundraiser competitive, coin jars are set up near the cyclers in which people can place quarters, dimes and nickels. Quarters represent positive points, while other coins represent negative points. Each KU sorority has a jar, and the one with the most points will receive 15 percent of the fundraiser's proceeds.
The fraternity chose a cycling event in concurrence with its national summer philanthropy, the Journey of Hope. The journey will include three KU students riding from San Fransisco, Calif., to Washington, D.C.

Chanay said the debate on Wednesday showed what issues the students were really interested in. He said that there was a lot of misinformation going around about the fee cut referendum, but that it still had a strong possibility to be passed.

DEBATE E-MAIL
Student Senate Elections Commissioner Cullen Hughes sent this e-mail to the $100 Fee Cuf's presidential and vice presidential candidates Dennis Chenny and Johnathan Wilson on Wednesday. It was sent after questions from students dealt with the coalition initiative to cut student fees $46 a semester.
For the debate on Monday, all questions and answers will deal with the race for President and Vice President. I feel that too much of today was focused on the initiative to cut student fees, and not enough on the actual race at hand. I can assure you that the questions will deal with the Presidential and Vice Presidential races only, and the answers should address these questions accordingly. If you are intending to run for these offices and would like the chance to debate the issues that will be presented on Monday, that's fine. But if you intend to use the formal debate as an arena to push the fee cut initiative, I suggest that you not even show up, as I will cut off all answers that either do not answer or stray away from the matter at hand. If you have any questions, let me know.

Georgia Rep. apologizes
Thanks,

Elections Commissioner
BY LAURIE KELLMAN
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
FRIDAY, APRIL 7, 2006
WASHINGTON — With a grand jury investigating and little support from House colleagues, Rep. Cynthia McKinney reversed course and apologized Thursday for an altercation in which she entered a Capitol building unrecognized, refused to stop when asked by a police officer and then hit him.
"I am sorry that this misunderstood happened at all and I regret its escalation, and I apologize." McKinney, D-Ga., said during a brief appearance on the House floor. "There should not have been any physical contact in this incident."
The grand jury investigation into whether to seek assault or other charges is continuing. It was unclear what impact McKinney's apology might have.
Her remarks came as two
House officials who witnessed the March 29 scuffle prepared to answer subpoenas from the federal grand jury convened by U.S. Attorney Kenneth Wainstein. A day earlier, McKinney was shunned by several colleagues on the House floor, while the leaders of her party openly rejected her explanation that she was acting in self defense when she hit the officer.
The night before the apology, members of the Congressional Black Caucus urged McKinney in a private meeting to find a way to put the matter to rest, said a person familiar with the session.
What McKinney called a "misunderstanding" on Thursday, she had labeled "racial profiling" and "inappropriate touching" a day earlier.
For nearly a week, her and her lawyers had insisted she had been assaulted and had done nothing wrong.
She is black and the police officer is white.
McKinney, 51, has a history of confrontations with officers.
In this case, she entered a House office building without passing through the metal detector that screens visitors. Members of Congress are permitted to bypass the machines, but she was not wearing the pin that identified her as a House member at the time.
The officer, whose name has not been made public, has said he asked McKinney three times to stop. She did not.
He said McKinney's race was not a factor.
Terrance Gainer, outgoing chief of the Capitol Police, has said the officer placed a hand on McKinney and she responded by hitting him.
Even as McKinney tried to put the incident behind her, a new scuffle occurred Thursday outside the Capitol.

"Their budget was not enough to attract big names and they were not doing what they were supposed to do, which is engage students," he said.
"It was just one of those common sense things that if I can pay $5 to get enough money for John Stewart to come in, then that's worth it to me," Jones said.
In the past, Day on the Hill has featured big name bands such as Pearl Jam and the Gin Blossoms. Smith said she wasn't bothered by a lack of a household-name band.
"The concert is a way to say thank you for passing the activity fund and bringing back a great KU tradition. This concert is a trial run for Day on the Hill to see if we will be bringing back the concert permanently," Smith said.
"We feel pretty confident that the groups we have assembled will put on a good show. Many of the local bands are on the rise and the concert will have good music that people will enjoy," she said.
The event will feature several carnival games to keep visitors entertained and KJHK DJs from its Hot Lunch program will spin music during intermissions between performers.

Cancer
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A in September and has had two member's lives directly affected by cancer.
In November, Kennedy learned that his younger brother, Darren Kennedy, a freshman at the University, had cancer. Allen's mother died of cancer in 2000. Kennedy said that he remembered how he felt on the day he found out his brother had lymphoblastic lymphoma and that he knew he wanted to raise awareness about the disease.
"I hate feeling helpless and I didn't know what to do for him. I couldn't be a bone marrow donor because we weren't a match," he said. "I wanted to do a benefit show because I was doing research and found out that 1.4 million people are diagnosed with cancer a year and over 500,000 people die a year. I knew I had to do something."
The group released an album entitled "The Question" and has plans to release a follow-up album, "The Answer," in Fall 2006. They're also planning a cancer benefit album, called "The Problem," which will feature many local performers, Allen said.
Allen said, "We are trying to accomplish two goals with the concert. First and most importantly we want to raise money for cancer," he said. "Secondly, we want to set Lawrence straight on hip-hop. Across the country hip-hop gets a bad reputation, and we want to show that hip-hop can support a good cause and still have fun."
Kennedy echoed many of those thoughts when he said, "It's kind of crazy because rap killed somebody in front of the Granada and now hiphop is going to save a whole bunch of lives at the Bottleneck."

Judas gospel tells new story
BY RANDOLPH E. SCHMID THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — For 2,000 years Judas has been reviled for betraying Jesus. Now a newly translated ancient document seeks to tell his side of the story.
The "Gospel of Judas" tells a far different tale from the four gospels in the New Testament. It portrays Judas as a favored disciple who was given special knowledge by Jesus — and who turned him in at Jesus' request.
"You will be cursed by the other generations — and you will come to rule over them," Jesus tells Judas in the document made public Thursday.
The text, one of several ancient documents found in the Egyptian desert in 1970, was preserved and translated by a team of scholars. It was made public in an English translation by the National Geographic Society.
Religious and lay readers alike will debate the meaning and truth of the manuscript.
But it does show the diversity of beliefs in early Christianity, said Marvin Meyer, professor of Bible studies at Chapman University in Orange, Calif.
The text, in the Coptic language, was dated to about the year 300 and is a copy of an earlier Greek version.
A "Gospel of Judas" was first mentioned around A.D. 180 by Bishop Irenaeus of Lyon, in what is now France. The bishop denounced the manuscript as heresy because it differed from mainstream Christianity. The actual text had been thought lost until this discovery.
Elaine Pagels, a professor of religion at Princeton University, said, "The people who loved, circulated and wrote down these gospels did not think they were heretics."
Christianity in the ancient world had many more gospels circulating than now.

The main reason for the wooden bound papyrus order is based on the likeness of Egypt in the ancient world and on the harsh environment. By the time it was created, the papyrus was used as a record of important events, news, and announcements. The paper is now displayed in museums and libraries around the world, where it serves as an important source of historical information.

Face to face with 9/11 victims
BY MICHAEL J. SNIFFEN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Families recount tragic tales
ALEXANDRIA, Va. — The stories and photos of four young children, all of whom lost parents in the 9/11 attacks, brought witnesses to tears and visibly affected jurors Thursday at the death penalty trial of al-Qaida conspirator Zacarias Moussaoui.
The second phase of the sentencing trial — to determine whether Moussaoui deserves
execution or life in prison opened Thursday.
Early on, prosecutors played videos of the two hijacked jetliners hitting the gleaning World Trade Center towers. They also showed videos of people plunging more than 80 stories to their deaths and punctuated their presentation with family photos of loved ones.
Each hour the emotional impact grew.
Former New York Mayor Rudolph Gulliani retold the now-
familiar tale of his own harrowing experience in debris-choked lower Manhattan on Sept. 11, 2001.
But it was not until he spoke of the daughter of one of his closest aides, Beth Petrone Hatton, that Guilliani's voice quaked and broke.
Firefighter Terence S. Hatton — who earned 19 medals in 21 years — died without knowing his wife was pregnant.
One female juror looked stricken. The rest hung motionless on Gulliani's every word.
Even Moussaoui, who had affected a look of boredom during
the showing of video of falling bodies, watched the ex-mayor intently as he described Terry Hatton, who was born May 15, 2002. Her picture with Guilliani flashed on the screen.
"Terry's going to grow up without a father ... without a very special father," Guiliani said. "You can't replace that. ... There's no way that money, camps and scholarships, which is very important and which we raised, can replace that."
Guiliani aides in the audience dabbed their eyes with tissue and sniffed.

FEMA
Bush promotes acting director of disaster relief
BY HOPE YEN
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — With hurricane season just two months away, President Bush on Thursday nominated the acting director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency to be permanent head of the nation's disaster response agency.
R. David Paulison, a 30-year
mugher, took over at FEMA in September, when Bush named him to replace Michael Brown, who quit in the face of unrelenting criticism over the agency's sluggish response to Hurricane Katrina.
If confirmed by the Senate, Paulison would be undersecretary for federal emergency management at the Homeland Security Department.
"I'd be darned if I was going to turn my back on it." Paulison
said of his job at a news conference after he and Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff acknowledged that some others were not interested in the post.
Of the June 1 start of the hurricane season, Paulison said, "We're going to be ready for it."
If confirmed by the Senate, R. David Paulison would be undersecretary for federal emergency management at the Homeland Security Department.
The Bush administration has been widely criticized for being unprepared for Katrina, which ravaged the Gulf Coast on Aug. 29, and for responding to its destruction too slowly.
which was absorbed by the Miami-Dade Fire Rescue Department.
Paulison, 59, began as a firefighter in 1971 with the North Miami Beach Fire Department.
Paulison, who received a bachelor's degree from Florida Atlantic University, was just six weeks into his new job as fire chief in Miami-Dade County when Hurricane Andrew struck in 1992, leaving tens of thousands of people homeless and causing billions of dollars in damage.
Paulison also led the department through the 1996 crash of ValuJet Flight 592 in the Florida Everglades.
Praised for his response to Andrew, Paulison brought hands-on experience and his training in fighting fires and emergency management to his post as FEMA's interim director.
A longtime advocate of home-emergency kits, Paulison made a splash in 2003 when as director of FEMA's emergency preparedness unit he urged the public to stock supplies of duct tape and plastic sheeting to seal windows and doors in case of a terrorist attack.
Home hardware stores in several areas ran out of duct tape as a result and manufacturers spurred production to meet the surge in demand.
A certified paramedic, Paulison moved to Washington in late 2001. After FEMA became part of the Homeland Security Department in 2003, he led FEMA's emergency preparedness force until last year. He also has led the U.S. Fire Administration.

Senate debates immigration bill
CONGRESS
BY DAVID ESPO
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Putting aside party differences, Senate Republicans and Democrats coalesced Thursday around compromise legislation that holds out the hope of citizenship to an estimated 11 million immigrants living in the United States unlawfully.
"We can no longer afford to delay reform," said Republican Sens. John McCain and Edward M. Kennedy in a statement that capped weeks of struggle to find common ground.
But the emerging compromise drew fire from both ends of the political spectrum. Conservative Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, likened it to an amnesty bill that cleared Congress in 1986, while AFL-CIO President John Sweeney said it threatened to "drive millions of hardworking immigrants further into the shadows of American society, leaving them vulnerable to exploitation."
President Bush said he was pleased with the developments and urged the Senate to pass legislation by week's end.
Still, after days of partisan election-year rancor, an overnight breakthrough on the future of illegal immigrants propelled the Senate closer to passage of the most sweeping immigration legislation in two decades.
In an indication of the complicated political forces at work.
officials of both parties disagreed about which side had blinked. But they agreed that a decision to reduce the number of future temporary workers allowed into the country had broken a deadlock that threatened as late as Wednesday night to scuttle efforts to pass a bill. The change will limit temporary work permits to 325,000 a year, down from 400,000 in earlier versions of the bill.
Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, R-Tenn., characterized the developments as a "huge breakthrough." Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid of Nevada said he was optimistic about final passage, but cautioned, "We can't declare victory."
chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said: "While it admittedly is not perfect, the choice we have to make is whether it is better than no bill, and the choice is decisive."
Sen. Arlen Specter, R-Pa.,
Separately, the legislation provides a new program for 1.5 million temporary agriculture industry workers over five years.
It also includes provisions for employers to verify the legal status of workers they hire, but it was not clear what sanctions, if any, would apply to violators.
To secure the border, the bill calls for a virtual fence — as opposed to the literal barrier contained in House legislation — consisting of surveillance cameras, sensors and other monitoring equipment.

OUR OPINION
Your money at work KU to keep interest
In the debacle of the State Legislature's public education funding thus far, a nugget of common sense has finally arrived.
The bill awaits signing by Gov. Kathleen Sebelius.
The House and Senate both passed legislation that would let the University and other Regents schools keep the interest earned on tuition dollars. The money now goes to an all-nurse state fund.
The University could use the estimated $3.3 million to help with building repairs.
At a campus where deferred maintenance projects add up to $168.5 million and the microburst did another $4 million worth of damage, cash from interest would be a welcome resource for repairs.
The bill also has two things going for it that other funding doesn't't. It doesn't cost taxpayers any more money and it doesn't cost students any more money. Taxes don't need to be raised and tuition doesn't have to go up.
Unlike other funding issues, this one makes perfect sense. The interest on tuition comes directly from the universities that attract students to go there. There's no reason why it shouldn't go back to
Issue: Legislation that would let the University keep interest earned on tuition money
PAGE 7A
Stance: This bill provides much-needed money directly back to the University.
Why shouldn't the University be able to collect on the tuition money it gets from attracting students to come here?
those schools.
Also, it's a sizable amount.
The University gets $3.3 million out of the estimated $8.5 million interest from all Regents schools.
But putting that money in the $4.6 billion state general fund makes the money a drop in a very large bucket.
The legislature has been unable to come up with a comprehensive plan to help pay for education.
But now, the state government has written a good bill and gotten it close to being passed. Hopefully, Sebelius will sign it to complete this common-sense trifecta.
- John Jordan for the editorial board
▼ GUEST COMMENTARY
Fees cost too much
I'd like to offer you a tip, from student to student: Whatever you do next Tuesday and Wednesday, don't forget to vote.
Why, you ask? Because for the first time in KU history each and every one of us will have a vote to reduce fees by $46 a person per semester and a percentage in the summer. This translates to two things:
First, $2.9 million in financial relief for students and their families
Second, forced fiscal responsibility from our student leaders.
As you may know, some student politicians have spoken out against this measure, probably because it gives them less of your money to spend. For instance, you may have heard that certain student health fees will be reduced or that the proposed fee cuts will make little difference in the lives of students.
But, what you probably haven't heard is that after the fee cuts Watkins Health Center will still be up and running the only difference being that students will have greater personal choice as to what pharmacy to use. Currently, Watkins has a large reserve account (partially made up of our money), and a new state mandate will ensure that the cost of paying Watkins employees will begin to rise dramatically during the next few years.
All of this will probably result in a rise in prescription prices and overhead, paid primarily out of our pockets. And remember, under the current system, you pay whether you use it or not. This, we believe, is a dangerous situation, trapping students into a situation that limits personal choice and forces the majority of us to pay more than necessary.
know that it is hard for many of us to pay for college and that loans and debt are a common occurrence. So, by setting an example and lowering our own fees, we will encourage the University to follow suit, tighten spending and reduce the burden on students and their families.
Something else you may not hear from opponents of the fee cut is the statistics of the rising cost of college — both fees and tuition. I
Also, the proposed referendum actually increases the amounts allocated to the UDK, Campus TV, Radio, and Safey budgets (things that we feel are a high priority).
By ignoring these facts, we believe that student politicians are being insensitive to our needs as students. Remember, we come here for a good, affordable education, pleasant atmosphere, great sports teams and awesome parties — not to have Student Senate spend our hard earned money on its own pet projects.
This is why I believe on April 11 and 12, students all across campus, despite background, major or year, will sit down at their computers, examine the numbers and make a sound judgement.
Left untouched on the fee cut referendum are services like transportation, child-care, women's sports fees, multi-cultural resource center fees, SUA and union funds. In fact, campus will look much the same after the $100 fee cut referendum is passed, the only difference will be more money in your pocket to spend on bills, books or beer. Despite who you vote for, or even if you don't vote at all, at the bottom of this year's ballot, vote "yes" for lower fees, a more responsible senate and a stronger KU.
Remember: it's our money. And its time to take it back.

More information key to ending drug confusion
COMMENTARY
The United States is gradually becoming a country with a rampant drug problem. According to the Drug Enforcement Administration's Web site, the agency's 2005 budget was slightly more than $2 billion, compared to the 1972 budget, which was $65 million. These simple monetary figures show that everything to do with drugs is on the rise.
People use and people abuse drugs. But worst of all, there are many things about the drugs people use that they don't know. Take for instance, salvia — a powerful hallucinogen that is almost as strong as LSD, according to some experts, and is completely legal in all but two states — Missouri and Louisiana. Delaware is contemplating making it illegal. It is gaining in popularity.
Daniel Seibert maintains a Web site, sagewisdom.org, where visitors can learn about salvia. His site not only discusses what the drug is, but how to use it and where to grow it, among other topics. Even though salvia is used to produce hallucinations, Seibert stands by the idea that it should not be abused like other drugs.
According to his site: "Salvia divinorum is an extraordinary visionary herb. It is not a recreational drug. It produces a profoundly introspective state of awareness that is useful for meditation, contemplation and self-reflection."
LIZ STUEWE
opinion@kansan.com
This description makes the drug seem like a completely magical substance that makes you feel happy and from which nothing bad can come. Conflicting evidence proves this may not be the case. The family of a Delaware teenager who committed suicide in late January, blames the drug for the teen's death. He didn't overdose, but was on the drug at the time of his suicide. Obviously, not enough is known about this drug.
Again, salvia is only illegal in two states. It can easily be purchased online by anyone of any age with a credit card.
I don't agree with an outright ban, as of now. What I do suggest is gathering more information.
The Drug Abuse Resistance Education program educates many school-aged children about
drugs. The drugs studied through D.A.R.E. range from marijuana and tobacco to ecstasy and steroids, but not salvia. If the main purpose of D.A.R.E. is to inform kids about drugs, salvia should be part of the curriculum.
Pamphlets should be made and distributed in clinics and on college campuses. The Wellness Resource Center in Watkins Memorial Health Center has pamphlets explaining many different drugs. Center manager Melissa Smith said she planned to research salvia and find more information about it for students.
People know that some drugs have bad side affects. Salvia may not be the same. I have never used salvia, but I think that it should be completely understood, before it is made illegal.
Another alternative is restricting salvia in the same way that tobacco products and alcohol are restricted. Setting age limits, like 18, would help keep salvia out of the hands of teenagers. Even Seibert's site said that salvia was intended for "responsible adults that are of sound mind and clear intent."

Fee cut would hurt many resources
The idea of saving the average student $46 a semester is honorable enough on the surface. But a closer look will reveal that the fee cut will have a significant negative impact on students. Your vote for the fee cut is not a vote for fee relief, but a vote against essential aspects of student life.
A no vote for the fee cut is a vote to save student health care. If the fee cut passes, Watkins Health Center will be crippled in its ability to provide students with health care services. The pharmacy would be closed and students would find themselves having to pay a large fee every time they walked through the door.
A no vote for the fee cut is a vote for the environment. The fee cut eliminates the Campus Environmental Improvement Fee, which provides for all recycling around campus. Every blue bin in every building, residence hall and cafeteria would be taken away.
A no vote for the fee cut is a vote to keep the Student Recreation Center open. The center is completely student-funded. The fee cut would force the center to shorten hours and possibly reduce activities and services, such as KU Fit classes, rock climbing, exercise equipment, intramurals and sports groups. It would definitely halt planned expansion.
A no vote for the fee cut is a vote to save important staples that make us unique. The cut would remove funding from Hilltop Child Development Center, care for rape victim survivors, the Multicultural Resource Center, the Douglas County Aids Project and Women's Transitional Care Services. As students, we have shown that these groups are important by funding them. It is
time we defend them.
A no vote for the fee cut is a vote to protect student groups. Groups can come through Student Senate and receive funding for certain aspects of their group. The fee cut would virtually eliminate any ability Senate has to give money to student groups for speakers such as Bill Cosby or even fliers that groups use to advertise their events.
As students, we should unite against this fee cut because it is an attack on student services at the University. It will tarnish the reputation of the University as the premier institution in the state of Kansas. Students should stand together and vote no.

GUEST COMMENTARY
Vote "no" to keep Senate impartial
The Multicultural Education Enhancement referendum will damage the whole of student organizations and their relationship with Student Senate.
This referendum, generated by members of the Multicultural Affairs Committee, asks very little of a student monetarily — only $1.50 a semester to aid events deemed multicultural in nature. What each and every student needs to realize is that this marginal amount could hamper all future funding actions within the Senate.
First, one should realize that this $1.50 is being added to the already existing Student Senate Activity Fee and will not be maintained in a separate account. The fine print of this referendum states that any organization attending a conference dealing with multiculturalism or hosting a multicultural event will be waived from several of Student Senate's rules. The referendum does not state that only the money generated by this fee increase will go to fund these events.
Second, one should fear the nature of fund raising. This referendum will place groups on unequal ground, and promote dishonesty about the nature of events. If passed, a qualitative judgment about events will force Senate to fund groups differently. But what about the hard questions?
Do multicultural groups' social events qualify as events that promote multiculturalism? And what will occur when groups begin to skim the line? When an engineering event claims to be geared only towards women in order to gain more funding, will we witness the birth of hundreds of social clubs with an ethnic attachment?
Soon, Senate will be bogged down with groups like a "Polish Juggling Club" or an "Irish Chess Club" obtaining money that was meant to educate on a broader basis.
If your only concern with programming at this University is multicultural events, then by all means, vote "yes" on this referendum. I believe, however, that we can find a better way to aid multicultural programming.
If you are like myself and believe that the 400-some student organizations should be able to appear in front of Senate on equal footing to receive money for their events that further not only cultural, but social, political and general educational purposes, on April 11 and 12 vote no.

Couric leads way
'Today' host may open doors for women
BY JOCELYN NOVEUG
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — When people used to ask Connie Chung if a woman would ever get to anchor the network evening news all by herself, she'd say: "Not in my lifetime."
Now Chung, very much alive, calls Katie Couric's move to CBS "a watershed moment." And she's not the only one who confesses to feeling a shiver of pride. From women's rights leaders like Gloria Steinem and Eleanor Smeal to ordinary TV viewers to Couric's own 10-year-old daughter, a lot of people think her history-making ascension to
Couric
sole anchordom
is a pretty big
deal.
There are serious caveats, of course. One is that it took more than half a century for a woman to cross the final frontier
in TV news. And fewer and fewer people are watching network news anyway. And finally, CBS is dead last in the evening news race — the main reason it needed to lure Couric, after all.
But all that isn't enough to spoil the happiness of Steinem, perhaps this country's most recognizable feminist, who chooses instead to imagine the sight of Couric assuming that anchor chair on her first night.
"One thing is sure," said Steinem. "Women and girls will have their first vision of a female network anchor who is an authority on her own. Since we learn by example, there's no telling where that iconic image may lead."
And all that talk of "perky" vs. "gravitas"? Besides the point, Steinem said. "I think she will give us back what we haven't had since Walter Cronkite — a trusted messenger who conveys the human meaning of the news."

NYC police officers caught with Mafia
BY LARRY MCSHANE THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CRIME
NEW YORK - Two highly decorated former detectives were convicted Thursday of moonlighting as hit men for the mob in one of the most sensational cases of police corruption in New York history.
Louis Eppolito, 57, and Steven Caracappa, 64, could get life in prison for their roles in eight murders committed between 1986 and 1990 while they were simultaneously on the payroll of both the New York Police Department and Luchese crime family under boss Anthony "Gaspi" Casso.
Prosecuters told the two men carried out two hits themselves — after pulling the victims over in traffic stops — and delivered up some of the other victims to
Federal prosecutor Daniel Wenner described the case as "the bloodiest, most violent betrayal of the badge this city has ever seen."

the Mafia to be killed.
Neither defendant showed any emotion during the 10 minutes it took the jury forewoman to reply "proven" 70 times to the racketeering acts they were accused of. The verdict was reached after two days of deliberations.
The defendants' $5 million bail was revoked and they were led off to jail to await sentencing May 22. The men's lawyers said they would appeal.
Prosecutors said the two used their law enforcement positions to help the Mafia at a price of $4,000 per month — more if they personally handled a killing. They earned $65,000 for one of those slayings, prosecutors said.

Golfers have high and low swings
TIM HALL thall@kansan.com
YOSHIKO KIMURA
Golf is a funny game, there's no doubt about it. One day, you can be on top of the world with your swing and win tournament after tournament, but before you know it, the hole is smaller than the ball.
The golfing Gods have not been smiling on the KU team this spring. They debuted this season with a last place finish in Hawaii and just recently finished in 15th place in a 16-team field in Santa Cruz, Calif.
- this weekend in Augusta, Ga. $ ^{+} $ it will show that slumps and disappointing performance will happen to even the best of golfers.
But with the 70th Masters Tournament — the tournament that defines professional careers
KU had a solid year in the 2004-05 campaign, just missing out on the NCAA finals. Coach Ross Randall took the team to its eighth straight NCAA Regional. It won two tournaments, finished second in another, and only finished outside the top 10 once.
This season, the team won the Kansas Invitational, which it consistently wins every year. But it has also finished 15th or worse three times. The shots haven't been as straight and the putts just aren't falling.
For the professionals, take a look at Canadian Mike Weir. He's a great golfer. He won the Masters in 2003 and he was on top of the golfing world, but only briefly. In the three years since winning the most prestigious golf tournament in the world, he has won only one tournament. I thought the belief was that if you could win the Masters, you could win anything.
Golf just isn't like that. The swing comes and the swing goes. But recently, Weir has been hitting the ball well, and he is a contender to win this year.
If you really want to talk about slumps — I won't say Tiger; he was never in a slump — there's David Duval.
5
It's crunch time
Duval, who's in the field this weekend, won a major championship in 2001 and has not won another tournament since. He went into a slump and then decided to take some time away from the game. He once shot an impressive round of 59. He can be a great player again, with practice. He'll have plenty of time to practice after his opening-round score of 84 causes him to miss the cut.
KU golfer Tyler Docking is a tremendous talent who has been through the good and the bad. Less than two years ago, he made it to the Sweet Sixteen of the U.S. Amateur against the best amateurs in the world. This year his scoring average is 77. Golf can take any great player and give him hell. Like I said, it's a funny game.
Docking will get his game back to form. He has too much talent and too good a swing to stay down. The entire Kansas team, too, will likely get it back. They have some good talent in names like Woodland, Krsnich, Martens, Pederson, Trammell, Rainer, Signer, and Mundy.
As for the Masters, yes golf is a funny game, but there's nothing funny about betting against Tiger in a major. That guy is good.

Making it to postseason play pushes players to focus efforts

KANSAN SENIOR SPORTSWRIER
Before leaving for a four-game road trip Tuesday night, Tracy Bunge had a simple message for the softball team.
It's crunch time.
"We're at a critical point in the season," the Kansas softball coach said. "This is the time to get it done. If we don't get it done in the next couple weeks, we take ourselves out of things, as far as the postseason."
Kansan file photo
Kansas (20-18, 1-4 Big 12) can help its chances for its second straight postseason appearance this weekend against No. 18 Baylor (24-14, 4-2 Big 12).
Kansas will face Baylor twice, at 4 p.m. on Saturday and at noon on Sunday in Waco, Texas.
The Bears are currently riding a four-game winning streak.
They have ended three straight games early after five innings because of softball's run rule. When a team is up by eight runs after five innings, the game is called off.
Baylor pitcher Lisa Ferguson ranks fifth in the Big 12 Conference, giving up fewer than two runs per game. She has given up just three runs in her past 11 innings.
"We have to do some damage at Baylor," Bunge said. "We obviously know Baylor's playing well, but we've got to take care of business the rest of the week."
For junior pitcher Kassie Humphreys, taking care of business involves getting into the postseason.
"It's just coming down to crunch time and that's where we want our seniors to be able to go, to regionals, and go to postseason, and I think that's where we're really feeling a little heart," Humphreys said.
Junior pitcher Kassie Humpreys throws against Nebraska on March 4 in Lawrence. Kansas will take on Baylor this weekend in Waco, Texas.

Tech freshman leading Big12

It doesn't seem possible when you consider his age: He's only a freshman.
Roger Kieschnick has torn up opponents this season and might be the toughest out for Kansas pitchers this weekend.
Just 33 games into his college career, Kieschnick leads Texas Tech in six offensive categories. He leads all Big 12 hitters in three.
Kieschnick said he didn't expect to have such a breakout his first season.
MICHAEL ROGERS
Kieschnick
"I didn't know. I just wanted to come out and try to contribute any way I could for the team." Kieschnick said.
Among Red Raiders, Kieschnick ranks first in batting average (.399), hits (55), triples (two), RBI (40), total bases (85) and slugging percentage (.616).
In the Big 12, nobody has more hits, RBI or total bases than Kiesnick. He also has the fifth-highest batting average in the conference.
If Kieschnick's last name sounds familiar, don't confuse him with major league pitcher Brooks Kieschnick, who played at Texas.
According to Baseball America's Will Kimmey, the two are third cousins, but Roger wasn't as sure.
"Well, I'm not real sure if I'm related to him or not. I've never met him," Kieschnick said. "One of my family members said we were third cousins."
With the last name, the high school numbers (.319 batting average, six home runs, 19 RBI and eight stolen bases as a senior) and the proximity (a Rockwall, Texas, native) it might seem more likely he would be punishing pitchers as a Longhorn.
However, Kiesnick said a lack of commitment from Texas and other schools helped him decide to become a Red Raider.

The KU tennis team wraps up its home season by playing two extremes of the Big 12 this weekend.
Kansas will play at last-place Missouri at noon Saturday and first-place Baylor 11 p.m. Sunday. Both matches are scheduled to be played on Robinson Courts.
Missouri has struggled. The Tigers dwell at the bottom of the Big 12 with a conference record of 0-6.
Kansas comes into the match against Missouri with an overall record of 11-7 (2-4 Big 12).
Their overall record is 6-7 and they have been swept three times.
Despite the Missouri's struggles, Kansas coach Amy Hall-Holt said the Jayhawks could not afford to overlook their rivals.

Baylor's season is at the opposite end of the spectrum. The Bears (17-3, 6-0 Big 12) are at the top of the Big 12 in a threeway tie for first place in the conference.
Ranked No. 8, they will be the highest-ranked team the Jayhawks have faced all season.

While the stars of the PGA Tour enjoy the plush accommodations available at the Masters Tournament this weekend, the members of the Kansas men's golf team will be just up the road in Cary, N.C., at the Courtyard by Marriott Intercollegiate tournament, playing under somewhat less glamorous circumstances.
The Jayhawks will spend nearly 11 hours on the course
Friday to complete the first 36 holes of play. The team will play the final round early Saturday morning before returning to Lawrence. All of this is han-

of this is happening after a
full day of practice on Thursday that began at 6 a.m.
However, if there's one thing the team has grown accustomed to, it's a bit of hard work. After posting less than satisfactory results on several occasions this spring, the team has had to undergo rigorous qualifying rounds and long practices in the past few days.
Despite coming off of a disappointing 15th place finish in the Western Intercollegiate tournament, Kansas coach Ross Ran-
"We're getting there. I think this team is slowly but surely getting better," Randall said.
our said he was pleased with his team's practice habits.
The Jawhaws have struggled to remain consistent this spring, and coach Randall has struggled to find a reliable lineup. This week's lineup is heavy on experience, as senior Jason Sigler and junior Barrett Martens have replaced younger players like sophomore Joey Mundy and freshman Zach Pederson.
"We're still trying to figure out who the top five will be, and because we've only got a few weeks before the postseason starts, hopefully this tournament will tell us." Randall said.
Randall said he was hoping his current lineup of veterans could lend an air of consistency to the team and guide them to the postseason.
When the Jayhawks hit the links Friday, they will be facing some of the country's top competition in teams such as Tulsa and Duke.
"It's really nice out here. The course is fairly tight, not too long, and really sets up well for us." Sigler said.
The tournament will be played at the MacGregor Downs Country Club, where the forecast calls for warm temperatures and high winds. The course may play in the Jawhaws' favor, though.

hurdles. Both are 2005 World Champions. Jackson set the Kansas Relays record at last year's meet.
"All three invitational hurdle races bring something special to Gold Zone II," Weaver said in a press release. "When athletes sprint at full speed over barriers as high as a backyard fence, anything can happen. Yes, we have world champions and heavy favorites in these races, but I would remind the fans that the hurdles offer the best chance for upsets and unpredictable action."
Kansas sophomore Julius Jiles will also run in the men's invitational 400-meter hurdles, while senior Aaron Thompson will run in the 110-hurdles.
It was also announced that the women's 100-meter hurdles will feature Jenny Adams and Nichole Denby. Both finished in the top six at the 2004 Olympic Trials.
The Kansas Relays Gold Zone II is set for Saturday, April 22, from 2 to 5 p.m.

"I talked to the coaches a little bit and they wanted me to wait until the spring and I didn't want to wait," Kieschnick said. "So, Texas Tech was the best place for me."
Although the competition in the Big 12 can be overwhelming for freshmen, Kansas shouldn't expect any letdown from Kieschnick this weekend.
Even outside of the batter's box, Kieschnick can contribute. He has three stolen bases in four attempts. On defense, he's started all 33 of Texas Tech's games in left field and has only
one error with his 52 putouts, two assists and .982 fielding percentage, which is the third best on the team among regular starters.
When considering what had been the best part of his first year as a college baseball player, he talked about the road trips he has taken instead of statistics.
"Playing at A&M, playing at Astros stadium," Kieschnick said, referring to trips Texas Tech took to Texas A&M and Minute Made Park in Houston. "Playing at all these different places, I'd never got a chance to play before."

Suns all-star Stoudemire sidelined for season
Edited by John Jordan
NBA
BY BOB BAUM
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PHOENIX — The guessing game regarding Amare Stoudemire's return finally is over. The Phoenix Suns All-Star forward will not play again this season.
Stoudemire underwent arthroscopic surgery Wednesday on his right knee, a procedure to remove debris that had built up as he rehabilitated his left knee following surgery before the season began.
A few hours after the latest operation, the Suns were listless in a 119-105 home loss to the Los Angeles Clippers.
Instead of welcoming their big forward back for a possible run at an NBA title, the Suns will have to make do with a small lineup that — without injured center Kurt Thomas — has seen its defense disintegrate.
To make matters worse Wednesday, the Suns normally
high-scoring offense slowed to a crawl.
"We will just have to find some energy and go ahead." Phoenix coach Mike D'Antoni said.
Stoudemire's operation followed a comeback that lasted three games. He missed the first 66 games of the season after surgery on his left knee.
Stoudemire's surgery Oct. 11 came a week after he signed a five-year contract extension worth more than $70 million. He returned to the lineup March 23, scoring 20 points in 19 minutes against Portland. But his production dropped dramatically in his next two games, and Stoudemire's mobility was a problem. He missed the next four games before deciding on arthroscopic surgery. D'Antoni said he wouldn't second-guess the decision to have Stoudemire return less than six months after surgery.
"There was no risk of him re-injuring his knee," D'Antoni said.

Hit streak ends at 38 games
N 398
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
St. Louis Cardinals Aaron Miles slides under Philadelphia Philies second baseman Chase Utley with a steal in the 8th inning Thursday in Philadelphia. The Cardinals won 4-2.
BY ROB MAADDI
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PHILADELPHIA — Jimmy Rollins watched the final out with his bat in his hands, turned and walked down the steps of the dugout.
He was more disappointed over Philadelphia's third straight loss than the end of his 38-game hitting streak.
Rollins went 0-for-4, snapping a hitting streak that stretched over two seasons, and the Phillies lost 4-2 to the St. Louis Cardinals on Thursday.
"I said I'd trade a hit for a win," Rollins said. "Unfortunately it didn't happen."
After finishing with a 36-game hitting streak last year, Rollins kept up his pursuit of Joe DiMaggio's major league record 56-game streak with hits in his first two games this season.
But he was hitiless in three tries against Jason Marquis — he's 3-for-25 against him — and one at-bat against Josh Hancock. Rollins flied out to right field (first inning), left field (fifth) and center field (seventh), and was retired trying to bunt for a single in the third.
Rollins was the fifth batter due up in the ninth, but Jason Isringhausen retired the side in order, getting Mike Lieberthal to ground out to third base for the final out.
"The thing I like best is we went after him every time the whole series," said Cardinals manager Tony La Russa, who signaled for a strike before Rollins doubled against Adam Wainwright on a 3-0 pitch with the streak on the line in the eighth inning of Monday's opener. "He didn't walk one time."
Rollins' season-ending. 36-game hitting streak was the ninth-longest over one season in big league history, and the longest in the majors since 1987, when Paul Molitor hit safely in 39 consecutive games. The 38-game streak is the eighth-longest overall.
A three-time All-Star shortstop, Rollins' pursuit of DiMaggio's 65-year-old record had a catch. DiMaggio accomplished his feat in the same
season in 1941. The major league marks for longest hitting streak in one season and longest hitting streak spanning two seasons are separate records.
DiMaggio holds both with his 56-game streak, but there is a difference in the NL records: Pete Rose (1978) and Willie Keeler (1897) share the NL mark at 44 games. However, Keeler got a hit in his final game of 1896, so his run of 45 games overall was the first record Rollins could've elcissed.
The old Phillies franchise record of 31 was set by Ed Delahanty in 1899.
"I appreciated it from the time I knew about it," Rollins said of DiMaggio's record. "That's a large number."
Marquis (1-0) pitched 5 1-3 effec
tive innings and had an RBI double, Jim Edmonds singled in the go-ahead run in a four-run fifth inning and the Cardinals swept a three-game series in Philadelphia for the first time since 1986.
Philadelphia hadn't started 0-3 since losing the first three games in Arizona in 2000. The Phillies' last 0-3 start at home came in 1982 with one loss to the New York Mets and two against Montreal.
"Every day you lose is disappointing," Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said. "When you start the season and lose the first three, you have to regroup and play better."
Marquis gave up two runs and five hits. An NL Silver Slugger Award winner last year, Marquis got the Cardinals going in the fifth with a run-scoring double off Cory Lidle
that cut the deficit to 2-1.
After David Eckstein popped up a bunt, Juan Encarnacion reached on third baseman David Bell's fielding error. Albert Pujols, Edmonds and Scott Rolen followed with consecutive RBI singles to give the Cardinals a 4-2 lead.
"I enjoy hitting and anything I can do to help win the game helps the team," Marquis said.
Lidle (0-1) escaped a bases-loaded jam in the third by striking out Edmonds to end the inning. He retired the side in order with two strikeouts in the fourth, but ran into trouble when he hit Aaron Miles to start the fifth and Marquis followed with his hit.

Jason Bohn reacts to a missed birdie putt on the 18th hole during first round play of the Masters golf tournament at the Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Ga., Thursday.
Singh takes early lead at Masters
BY DOUG FERGUSON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
AUGUSTA, Ga. — In his office overlooking a super-sized golf course, Masters chairman Hootie Johnson must have been smiling.
For all the dread that the latest changes to Augusta National went over the top, the Masters had a familiar look Thursday, starting with Vijay Singh atop the leaderboard.
The former Masters champion fired off three straight birdies on the back nine for a 5-under 67, his best start in this tournament and a round he felt was long overdue.
There was a surprise, as always, in Rocco Mediate (68), and another strong debut by a Masters rookie, this time from Arron Oberholser (69). For sentimental value, look no further than 54-year-old Ben Crenshaw, whose short game carried him to a 71, his best round on this course since he closed with a 68 to win his second green jacket 11 years ago.
Tiger Woods had to settle for a 72, no change there since he has never broken 70 in the first round.
"This is probably one of the better rounds I've played out here," Singh said.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) *****
You have a lot of ground to cover, and quite quickly at that. You will be able to do what you want, and more. Remain positive, and others will respond. Your high energy helps others as well. Schedule an important talk.
Tonight. Easy does it.
HOROSCOPES
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) *****

ARIES (March 21 April 19) ★★★★
Possibilities seem to file in front of you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ★★★
If you maintain a low profile, you will gain.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★ ★
Slow down, and you will come out smiling.
Once more, listen to what it is being said. Others might expect a lot from you. Remember, you need to set your boundaries and limits.
Move slowly.
Tonight. Accept another's idea, or don't go.
No one is in the mood to give up on what he
or she thinks is a great idea.
PISES (Feb. 19-March 20) ***
News could cause excitement and a change in your plans. Be ready to toss the status码 into midair. You will be a lot happier if you lie back and relax. Others knock on your door with ideas and support.
Tonight: Tune in to what you feel.

PEOPLE 'idol' judge assaulted, still appears on show
LOS ANGELES — "American idol" judge Paula Abuld said

ing she had been a victim of battery about 1 a.m. Sunday, police Lt. Paul Vernon said Thursday.
"According to Abdul, the man at the party argued with her, grabbed her by the arm and threw her against a wall," Vernon said. "She said she had sustained a concussion and spinal injuries."
Abdul, who shares judging duties on Fox's hit talent show with Simon Cowell and Randy Jackson, appeared as scheduled on this week's "American Idol."
Abdul provided police with the name of the man, but Vernon withheld it pending further investigation. The man has not been charged, Vernon said.
Abdul's publicist Michelle Bega declined to comment. The incident was first reported by Us Weekly magazine.
Last week, she signed a deal to remain on the show for another three years.

MIAMI BEACH, Fla. — Russell Simmons and his wife, Kimora Lee, have announced their separation, but they plan to host a fundraiser Saturday at Donald Trump's estate in West Palm Beach.
Lee, 43, hopes to return for a concert Friday in Prince George, Englefield said. There are six dates left on the tour.

The dinner and auction at Mar-a-Lago will benefit Art for Life, which Simmons and his brothers founded. The 48-year old hip-hop mogul has called on celebrity friends to attend the $1,000-a-person event.
The party's still on despite separation
"This will be the best party Mar-a-Lago has ever seen," Simmons said Wednesday while sitting pool side at the Delano hotel. "I have to tell Kimora to bring one of my suits."
Others expected to attend include Donald and Melania Trump, Venus and Serena Williams and Kelly Rowland.
Jamie Foox, Antonio "L.A." Reid and Denise Rich will be honored for their philanthropic efforts to promote art among the youth.

LAS VEGAS — For air travelers flying over southern Nevada this week, the view offers more than miles of dusty desert.
The cover is made of a vinyl-mesh screen and reads, "THE ONLY MAGAZINE BIG ENOUGHTO BE SEEN FROM SPACE — AND ONLY IN VEGAS!" A barely dressed Eva Longoria, star of ABC's "Desperate Housewives", graces the 75-by-110-foot display just outside Primm, near the California state line.
Maxim cover becomes new welcome mat
Erika Yowell, a spokeswoman for the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, told the Las Vegas Sun that her agency is involved with the promotion because the magazine's readers are a good target audience for the city.
A giant, bikini-clad Hollywood star perched on the desert sands isn't a mirage, but a recreation of a Maxim magazine cover.
A touch of Irish in downtown Lawrence
The cover is part of several days of events celebrating the magazine's 100-issue milestone, including poker and golf tournaments at the Wynn Las Vegas hotel-casino, a Maxim public relations representative said this week.
Maxim is one of the new "lad's magazines" that feature scantily clad, but not rude, young female celebrities.

'Hawks must overcome Tech's pitching
KU First Pitch AT A GLANCE:
Kansas (20-12, 4-5 Big 12 Conference) is finally a complete team again after senior center fielder Matt Baty and sophomore second baseman Ryne Price returned to the lineup last week. As a bonus, the team is done with the toughest part of its schedule and now is solely focused on gaining ground in the Big 12.
LAST TIME OUT:
The Jayhawks traveled to Wichita on Wednesday night and fell to the Shockers, 4-0. The highly-charged Wichita State fans greeted the Kansas players. Although the Kansas pitchers allowed only six hits, two of them were home runs to Wichita State third baseman Conor Gillaspie.
PLAYER TO WATCH:
John Allman. Despite not getting a hit against Wichita State, the sophomore left fielder has
done extensive damage to opposing pitchers, Kansas coach Ritch Price tried to shake his lineup around earlier in the season. Price moved All-team to the six
Allman
and seven holes to put him in a spot to see more favorable pitches to hit. It worked. Allman has hit .500 in the past five games with four RBI.
5 QUICK FACTS:
17 - The number of consecutive games Kansas has played against a ranked opponent, including No. 26 Texas Tech this weekend.
3 — The Big 12 Conference's RPI as a league.
10 — The number of saves this season for senior closer Don Czyz, good for first in the Big 12.
33 — The number of KU home runs this season, tying Nebraska for the highest in the Big 12.
LOOKING FORWARD:
2 — The number of at-bats senior center fielder Matt Baty needed to get his first hit after 18 games on the disabled list.
The Jayhawks have to find their rhythm on offense. Last weekend, Kansas took two games from then-Big 12 leader Missouri. But in the first game against the Tigers, the Jayhawks scraped together only three hits and no runs. Kansas has to be more consistent if it wants to make a serious run during Big 12 play.
KEY TO VICTORY:
Hit the ball. Despite having a higher team ERA, Texas Tech pitchers have collected 90 more strikeouts than the Kansas staff. Kansas batters have also struck out 63 more times than the Red Raiders. If the Jayhawks bring their bats tonight and for the weekend, they have a good chance at taking the series.
Kansas vs. Texas Tech 6 p.m. today at Hoglund Ballpark
KANSAS
Offense:
Kansas, ranked No. 24 by Baseball America, continues to bring a hot and cold offense to the table. On Wednesday, Wichita State held Kansas to five hits and no runs.The Jayhawks scored eight runs on the Shockers only a week earlier. The Jayhawks 33 team home runs ties the Cornhuskers for the most in the Big 12 Conference. But with their team batting average falling below .300,the Jayhawks are sitting in seventh place in the Big 12. Senior center fielder Matt Baty returned to the field on Wednesday. Baty will step back into the lineup in his typical leadoff spot. He led Kansas last year with 75 hits.
Defense:
TEXAS TECH
KU KU KU
The numbers don't paint a clear picture for the effectiveness of the KU defense this season. The Jayhawks lead the Big 12 in stolen bases allowed (47) and passed balls (12). They are, however, a solid defensive club to watch. Sophomore second
KU
weekend against Missouri. He mentioned his wrist be sore afterward. Price did not play against Wichita State on Wednesday. Kansas coach Ritch Price said after the game that it was just precautionary and that Ryne could have played if needed. Having Price back on the field sets up a nearly flawless double play combination with Ryne's brother Ritchie on the field, too.
Coaches:

Kansas has played 14 consecutive games against a ranked opponent and is still hanging on with 20 victories and an
almost .500 conference record. The Jayhawks even jumped back onto the Baseball America poll at No. 24 using players off the bench to replace Baty and Price while they were injured.
TTT
Offense:
TexasTech does it all on offense. It ranked 3rd in the Big 12 with a .330 team batting average.The Red Raiders have by far the most runs scored in the Big 12 with 263. Only Nebraska and Kansas have hit more home runs than Texas Tech's 32, and its 45 stolen bases are fourth in the conference. TexasTech also has plate discipline, leading the Big 12 with 158 walks. Freshman outfielder Roger Kieshnick leads the Red Raiders with a .399 batting average, 55 hits, 40 RBI and a .616 slugging percentage. He's second on the team with 33 runs and third with five home runs.
Defense:
T
Texas Tech pitchers only wish their defense would give them as much support as their offense. No Big 12 team has committed more errors than TexasTech's 47 and it is second to last with a .963 fielding percentage. Red Raider catchers have
thrown out potential base stealers only 23 percent of the time, which is next-to-worst in the Big 12. With only 19 double plays turned — also worst in the Big 12 — Texas Tech pitchers are having to get out of jams one out at a time. With 268 strikeouts, the Red Raiders lead the Big 12, but their 4.33 team ERA is fourth worst in the conference.
Coaches:
XU
TTT
Big 12 coaches predicted Texas Tech to finish in a tie with Kansas for eighth in the conference,but
Big 12 coaches predicted Texas Tech to finish in a tie with Kansas for eighth in the conference, but coach Larry Hays has the team in a three-way tie for fourth with Oklahoma State and Oklahoma. The Red Raiders are 15-4 at home, but only 7-7 in games outside of Lubbock, Texas. Hays is in his 20th season as head coach of the Red Raiders and would probably be the first to admit that the team must bring its pitching and defense up to the level of its hitting and play more consistently away from home if it wants to be successful in the Big 12.

球
TT First Pitch AT A GLANCE:
Over its past 11 games, Texas Tech is 6-5, including a series split against Texas, a series loss to Texas A&M and a series victory against Baylor. This weekend, Texas Tech (22-11, 4-4 in the Big 12) will try to win back-to-back Big 12 series for the first time since May 2004.
LAST TIME OUT:
Texas Tech lost 9-4 to New Mexico State Tuesday. The Red Raiders committed three errors, allowing five unearned runs to cross the plate to put the game out of reach.Texas Tech senior infielder Joey Callender went 3-for-4 with a walk, a run, an RBI and two stolen bases.
PLAYER TO WATCH:
Roger Kieschnick. The freshman outfielder leads the Big 12 with 55 hits, 40 RBI and 85
total bases. His .399 overall batting average is fifth best in the conference. In eight Big 12 games, he's batting .433 with 13 hits, nine runs, two home runs, 11 RBI and a .767 slugging nerve.

5 QUICK FACTS:

1 — The number of games Texas Tech has lost when scoring at least six runs this season. The Red Raiders are 19-1 overall in such games.
9 — Games in Kieschnick's current hitting streak. His longest this season was 13 games.
19 — The number of times Texas Tech has defeated Kansas in 26 Big 12 meetings, nine of which have come in Lawrence.
263 — The number of runs Texas Tech has scored in 33 games. Oklahoma is next in the Big 12 with 231 runs in 31 games.
LOOKING FORWARD:
With Texas and Baylor out of the way, a series victory against Kansas could make Texas Tech a mainstay in the heart of the Big 12. Nebraska and Missouri are the only teams left on Texas Tech's schedule that currently have winning conference records.
KEY TO VICTORY:
Kansas has allowed runners to swipe 47 bases, so Texas Tech should have no problem pressuring the defense by adding to its 45 stolen bases. The Red Raider pitching staff, with 268 strikeouts, must exploit a free-swinging Jayhawk lineup that has struck out 239 times. When Kansas puts the ball in play, though, Texas Tech can't afford to add to its 47 errors.

The Wildcats have not won a series against the Longhorns since 1998. The last time the two faced off in Manhattan, they played a 20-inning game, the longest in Texas baseball history. Texas right-hander Kyle McColloch (3-4, 3.12) will face undefeated Kansas State pitcher Brad Hutt (5-0, 3.43) tonight. Although McColloch comes in with a losing record, he is fourth on this season's Big 12 Conference strikeout list with 48 in 572 Innings. Last Sunday, the Longhorns hit five home runs against No. 28 Oklahoma. Kansas State outfielder Joe Roundy leads the Big 12 with a .474 batting average.

No. 6 Nebraska (21-5.4-2) at Missouri (16-11.6-3)
Missouri leads the all-time series between the two, 135-105-1. However, Nebraska took four of the five match-ups last season. In the last 11 meetings, nine of them were decided by two runs or fewer. Nebraska right-hander Joba Chamberlain (3-2, 2.70) will take on Missouri lefty Nathan Culp (6-2, 1.98) tonight. Culp threw a three-hit shutout against Kansas last weekend. It will make for an interesting match-up between Culp and Nebraska's Brandon Buckman, who hit a pair of home runs against Creighton on Tuesday.

FACING the FATS
Students beware:
KU doesn't reveal trans fats
New information about trans fats might affect the nutrition content in foods served in the dining centers. Mrs. E's offerings in its buffet-style dining center, such as this mushroom Swiss burger, have nutritional information offered only on-site (though trans fat percentages aren't currently listed); online breakdowns will likely be available on dining hall Web sites by the end of this year.

Eating heathlier in college should have become easier when food manufacturers added "trans fats" to nutrition labels. But for many KU students, this isn't the case, because they may not know the level of trans fats they're eating. The KU Dining Services cannot calculate trans fat for the meals it provides.
Trans fats are super-charged saturated fats, formed when liquid oils are converted to solid fats, such as butter and margarine.
A 2003 Food and Drug Administration regulation began requiring all packaged foods to list trans fats alongside saturated fat and dietary cholesterol on food labels as of January 1 of this year.
Trans fats can be found in a variety of foods, including shortenings, cookies, fried foods, some animal-based foods and other processed foods created with partially hydrogenated vegetable oil.
Hydrogenation, the process that creates most trans fats, requires hydrogen to be injected into vegetable oil. The process lengthens the shelf life of processed foods.
Trans fat statistics won't be available through KU Dining Services because its computer system does not calculate trans fats, but Sheryl Kidwell, assistant director, said she expected people to start asking for the figures.

With Student Senate elections coming up on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week, The University Daily Kansan is taking a closer look at the presidential and vice presidential candidates for each coalition. Each candidate represents a wide spectrum of student organizations and areas of study, as well as a variety of student viewpoints. Whether motivated by a certain referendum on the ballot or a personal desire to leave their mark on the University, the candidates each have a specific reason for running for office.To learn more about the candidates see page 6A.
HEALTH
Mumps incubation shortened
BY MIKE MOSTAFEA
mmostaffa@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
KU and Douglas County health officials said Friday that the infectious period for mumps is now three days before symptoms occur and four days after. KU Student Health Services had initially reported that the infectious period was seven days before symptoms and nine days after.
Patricia Denning, chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center, and Kim Ens, Douglas County disease control program coordinator, said at a press conference Friday that the new information came from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
"When you're in an outbreak situation, things tend to
change," Denning said.
As of Friday, Ens said Douglas County had reported 22 cases of the virus. Of the 22 cases, 18 of those infected were KU students.
Ens said that it was possible more KU students had been infected with the virus.
"If they go to a doctor back home or any doctor outside Watkins, we can't keep track of them," Ens said.
Ens said there was no treatment for mumps and the virus was as easily transmissible as the common cold.
With many students sharing living quarters, Denning expected the number of cases to rise and spread to surrounding counties.
"We live in a very mobile society," Denning said.
Ens said that while the virus
was highly contagious and unpleasant, there was no reason to panic.
According to a University press release, mumps generally is not considered a serious illness. Symptoms include fever, swelling and tenderness in one or more of the salivary glands. There is no specific treatment other than resting, drinking fluids and taking painkillers.
University and public health officials have asked students to isolate themselves if they show symptoms of the mumps. Any student, faculty or staff member with these symptoms should contact their health care providers or call Student Health Services at (785) 864-9507.

KANSAN CORRESPONDENT
April 11, 1890
The University of Kansas names Francis Huntington Snow chancellor of the University. Snow was one of the school's original three professors. Snow came to Kansas in 1866 as a Massachusetts Congregationalist minister and began teaching as a mathematics and natural science instructor, although he originally applied as a professor of languages. By 1870, Snow was a full-time natural history professor and eventually helped establish the Natural History Museum.
Although Snow was a candidate to be the chancellor in 1890, he was not the school's first or second choice. James H. Canfield, a KU history professor who had been both secretary and president of the National Education Association, was ruled out for his political views.
The other option for the University was Reverend Charles F Thwing of Minneapolis, Minn., who, like Snow, was a Congregationalist minister. Thwing was offered the job on March 12, 1890. However, because of his lack of experience, he declined the offer and Snow was appointed the chancellor after another month of debate.
Although Snow only held
post for 11 years as KU's chancellor, the school made enormous strides under his supervision. The school created the College of Arts and Sciences, the Schools of Engineering, Law, Fine Arts and Pharmacy.
Also during his tenure, the school and faculty more than doubled in size and the libraries collection nearly tripled.
Snow's great-uncle, William B. Spooner included the University in his will and donated $91,618, mostly because of the way Snow had described the school's promise of growth and opportunity. The school used most of the donation to build the Spooner Library, which is now the KU Museum of Anthropology.
In 1897, the University established its Graduate School and opened its PhD degree program, a degree that had been given as much esteem as degrees from the most prestigious schools such as
Harvard, Yale and Columbia.
In 1901, Snow resigned because of his health and was replaced by Frank Strong.
April 15. 1948
By this time the city of Lawrence and the state of Kansas still had not accepted African Americans in their stores and cafés leaving many a long trip for a meal. Committee on Racial Equality, a local group, set out to improve on this and discovered that 15 nightclubs and cafés in the Lawrence area did not serve African Americans.
Regardless of the attention that this received, the Merchant's Bureau Chairman said that no action would be taken until the Kansas Legislature dealt with the issue themselves. The manager of the Rock Chalk Café, now known as the Crossing, said serving African Americans was not being done in Lawrence or in this section of the country.
The Brick's Caté owner said that he refused to serve anyone of the CORE group regardless of their color. That comment alone spurred an April 15 sit-in that began around 4 p.m. and consisted of 31 white CORE members, 11 women and 20 men . After about 45 minutes, mixed-race members of CORE began sitting in booths, pushing the owner to say that he would not serve the group.
Fifteen or 20 white males, identified as football players, filed in around 6 p.m. to assist the owner with removing the individuals. The group finally approached a member of CORE after an hour of discussion with the owner. The group pulled the member from his booth onto the floor and he responded by quickly sitting back down in the same booth. The men tried to induce a fight with the member, but failed to do so.
Not long after, the Lawrence Police showed up and said

that they were able to throw the group out of the restaurant if they wanted, and did so by physically carry each person out the front door.
CORE kept on the City of Lawrence to look further into the incident and eventually the city began selling $1 meal tickets to help entice the owners. The idea failed and the individuals who purchased the ticket were reimbursed. Later, a few owners were offered up to $500 to serve African Americans on a regular basis but still declined to do so.

Man vandalizes jail; writes graffiti on walls
MILWAUKEE — A man who faces sentencing on graffiti violations now faces another accusation — that he tagged his jail cells, too.
Troy Lee Mosby placed his signature "Syrup" tag on the walls, beds, tables, locker and mirrors of six cell blocks at the Milwaukee County House of Correction, according to a complaint filed Thursday.
Mosby, 20, of Wauwatosa,
was scheduled for sentencing
Friday on 14 midmeanor graffiti counts, Instead, Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Paul Van Grunsven adjourned the matter to April 21 so Mosby has time to answer the new accusation.

Fats
CONTINUED FROM 1A
"That's the buzzword and that's what people are saying," Kidwell said.
The company falls under the same guidelines as restaurants, and was not affected by the new labeling requirements.
Nutritional components such as saturated fat and calories are calculated annually by KU Dining Services's computer system. While other schools including Kansas State University and Iowa State University offer full nutritional analyses online, information here is only available on-site in residential dining halls.
"The information is up there," Kidwell said, but students have to use information such as portion size and fat and calorie content to make smart food choices. Kidwell said KU Dining Services planned to post nutritional information online by the end of this year.
KU Dining Services also uses pure canola oil, low in trans fats, in their residential dining facilities, and is evaluating a trans fat free oil for its potential in the dining halls.
Cutting back on trans fats could lower bad cholesterol levels and the risk for heart diseases, which makes eating as few trans fats as possible the only healthy option. Chapman said.
Here's the nutritional breakdown for two meals from Mrs. E's Dining Hall.The trans fat content in the food could not be determined because computers are not able to detect it.

The national attention focused on the issue led to some companies voluntarily revamping products to avoid including trans fats. Several snack foods, including Oreos, are now trans fat free.
Jeff Cronin, Center for Science in the Public Interest spokesman, said University food services should be taking action to cut back on trans fats. Using trans fat free oils for baking and deep-frying, an experiment under way at the University is essential, he said.
Kansas State University already switched to trans fat free cooking oils.
Kansas State began offering nutritional information online in August 2004, including a build-a-
meal option that allows students to get a nutritional breakdown for a menu of their choice.
Missy Schrader, registered dietitian with the Kansas State University Department of Housing and Dining Services, said the university provides the information as a service.
"With better choices hopefully comes better health," she said.

▼ OUR OPINION
The Editorial Board has examined the three referendums that students will face during the Student Senate elections Tuesday and Wednesday. Below are our analyses and recommendations
PAGE 5A
Should the Student Actuvity Fee be increased by $20 to fund women's and non-revenue intercollegiate sports?
The Athletics Department is asking for a $20 increase — to $40 a semester — in funding for women's and non-revenue sports. The current fee of $20 hasn't been raised since 1996.
While this is the most expensive increase of fees on the ballot, it's one that you should vote for.
First of all it helps the University of Kansas achieve compliance with Title IX, a federal law that requires spending to be equal between men's and women's athletics.
Jim Marchiony, associate athletics director, said the athletics department wasn't in compliance with Title IX, but had been working to achieve compliance. The federal government could withhold funding from the University — money that goes to the University as a whole, not athletics — if it doesn't comply.
To achieve compliance, the Athletics Department has two options: Raise funds for women's sports or cut men's sports. Kansas has already lost men's tennis and swimming and we don't want to see another cut.
Second, the Athletics Department is providing more money for non-revenue sports. When this fee was added in 1996, it paid for 31 percent of the budget for these sports. Now, it only pays for 9 percent. This fee would help remove the burden from the department to pay for these sports and could increase donations to non-revenue sports by showing student support for them.
Finally, to get this money, the other place the department looks at increasing fees is the sports ticket combo price. Students pay $125 this year and will pay $150 next for tickets to basketball and football games. Kansas has the 10th-lowest prices for tickets in the Big 12. Putting the entire burden on students who buy these tickets to help pay for non-revenue sports isn't fair. The athletics department also has made a commitment not to raise those prices first.
But the alternative is either to lose sports, make ticket prices higher or risk losing federal money by not striving to stay complain with Title IX. Hey, we could always cut the men's basketball team.
The referendum isn't perfect in that it forces every student to help pay for the costs of a small group of students — the 500 or so student athletes in these sports.
The editorial board
▼ OUR OPINION
Should the Student Activity Fee portion of the Student Senate Rules and Regulations be amended as follows: "Sections 3 shall only be amended by a direct vote of the current student body as outlined in Article VIII of the Student Senate Rules and Regulations AND a change in fees such as Student Senate Activity to $10.00 (from $17.50), Student Health Fee: Operations to $60.00 (from $90.50), Student Recreation Fee: Recreational Services to $5.00 (from $7.50), Student Recreation Fee: Sports Clubs to $2.00 (from $2.50), Student Media Fee to $4.00 (from $3.00), Campus Safety Fee to $3.00 (from $2.00), Educational Opportunity Fee to $3.00 (from $6.00), Campus Environmental Approvement Fee to $0 (from $3.00), Legal Services to $7.00 (from $8.50)?
The $100 Fee Cut party asks you to get out and vote tomorrow and Wednesday during Student Senate elections. They don't want you to vote for them as candidates. They want you to vote in favor of a sweeping cut in fees that will put $46 per semester back in your pocket and deny the Student Senate — and, by extension, Watkins Health Center, student groups, campus recycling and the Student Recreation and fitness center — $2,162,000 in funding. Without this money, funding the affected program is simply not feasible.
While we applaud the coalition's reasoning behind promoting the referendum, we do not endorse this cut. We all want our student senators to be more responsible with the money that we entrust to them — and we do want more students to vote during the elections — but such a massive reduction in funds hurts students directly. Voting yes for this referendum is the equivalent of using an axe when a scalpel will suffice.
Cutting fees is a laudable goal, but the extent of this referendum's fee cut should give everyone pause. Serious consideration should be given to each and every fee before deciding whether it is an important addition to campus services. The referendum even cuts the Legal Services for Students fee by $1.50 — the exact amount of increase approved by students through referendum during last year's election. This referendum is a chaotic mismash of fee reductions and increases.
The $100 Fee Cut coalition wants you to believe that you must vote for this referendum to reclaim personal choice about how student senate spends your money. What the candidates don't tell you is that the Board of Regents has the power of approval or denial of any fee increases or decreases. It is unlikely that the Regents will allow such a suicidal cut in University programs and services to pass, unaltered.
Furthermore, they have the opportunity to selectively allow fee cuts. This could easily translate into the Regents denying critical fee cuts — such as those to Watkins and the Student Recreation and Fitness Center — and approving cuts to programs that make our lives a little better, such as the Student Senate Activity fee, which funds student groups, or the Campus Environmental Improvement fee, which provides recycling across campus and employs 14 students. A vote for this referendum places the choice in front of the Board of Regents, not the students.
We urge you to vote "No" to the fee cut referendum and to hold your senators directly accountable and responsible for the funding decisions they make.

▼ OUR OPINION
Should the Student Activity Fee be increased by one dollar and fifty cents ($1.50) per semester and by seventy-five cents ($.75) in the summer term to fund Multicultural Education Enhancement?
Probably the last thing you would like to read about right now is another proposed fee, but the Multicultural Affairs Committee has proposed one and it's actually a good idea. It's called the Multicultural Education Enhancement fee and cost $1.50 each fall and spring semester and $.75 during the summer. The money generated — estimated at $70,000 each year — would create a separate Senate account used for the explicit purpose of funding educational events as long as the event discusses sex, color, race, ethnicity, national origin or sexual orientation in an educational manner.
As it stands, a lot of multicultural groups are smaller in number simply because of demographics. These organizations consistently struggle with funding and have to fundraise constantly for their events. Most of their energy is focused on this, which takes away from the actual event. This fee would not wipe out their fundraising efforts, but it would at least reduce the burden so that groups can focus on publicity and coordination of the event. If they are already willing to expend this much energy putting on events now, just imagine what groups could do with more money.
The current set up for event funding says Senate can fund the first $1,000 of the event and then up to 50 percent of the rest of the expense. Should the multicultural fee pass, Senate could fund an additional 25 percent of the event cost.
People have expressed concern that the "Polish Juggling Group" or "German Beer Drinking Society" will form in response to this new reserve of money. This kind of concern is unjustified because the Senate still determines what events are funded and by how much. We should at least be able to trust the Senate to distinguish legitimate requests from others as they have always done. The only major change this fee could immediately enact is to inspire more groups to plan more events with a diverse message. And what's wrong with that? It is doing exactly what the fee increase aimed to do. It is promoting more cultural awareness. And that is why students should support this fee increase, if not for these groups, at least for themselves.
This is a small increase that can be used well. This initiative benefits campus in a much-needed manner: Increasing diversity. College is supposed to prepare us for the real world and our future careers. There is no doubt that later in life — if not now — we will encounter situations that demand a greater cultural awareness in order to succeed. Our University would be doing us a disservice if we were not exposed to different ways of thought and cultures. Unfortunately, diversity does not occur here as much as it does in most places throughout the United States, but
the important thing is that we are willing to work on this. We do have to take extra steps to ensure we are exposed to different points of view. This in turn allows everyone to be better citizens and stewards of our communities.

COMMENTARY
Simple steps make noticeable differences
KELLY COCHRAN
opinion@kansan.com
The world is dying. We hear it every day, but it's easy to forget when we're landlocked in Kansas, nowhere near melting icecaps or deforestation. But environmentalism is just as important in Lawrence as it is in Antarctica or Brazil. Helping the environment doesn't take a large commitment like trading in your gas-guzzling car for a bright shiny hybrid. There are smaller things people can do to make a noticeable difference.
According to the Environmental Protection Agency, an average American creates 4.4 pounds of trash a day, which adds up to 220 tons of trash annually. With those kind of numbers, it's clear that there's something to the grade school mantra of reduce, reuse, recycle. Campus is more accommodating to the environment and has more services than most people take advantage of. The Environmental Stewardship Program on campus not only provides bins throughout campus labeled for newspaper, plastic bottles and aluminum cans, they accommodate office clean-outs, as well as electronic recycling. The Department of Environment, Health, and Safety will also make sure you dispose of hazardous waste effectively and safely.
Helping the environment doesn't require you to become an ascetic or even to spend a lot of money. It's something worth doing and it only takes a little attention and some action. Even the smallest of changes can have a noticeable impact.
A second easy way to reduce waste is by replacing disposable products such as shopping bags and paper plates with reusable things. Take your own bag if you're going to the grocery or drug store, or a portable thermos if you're getting coffee. The community has noticed the difference this makes and coffee shops throughout Lawrence as well as campus' own eating facilities charge less for coffee if you bring your own thermos or mug. Just think, by simply buying a thermos you can reduce pollution, conserve landfill space and reduce consumption of natural resources.
And, lastly, at the risk of sounding like a broken record, there is a third classic way of cutting down energy consumption. Turn of the lights when you leave a room when they're unnecessary. If you want to take this a step further, you can replace the light bulbs in your house with a compact fluorescent bulb, which is a more energy-efficient bulb found in hardware and grocery stores. While this can cost more at the outset, these light bulbs use a quarter of the energy that a run-of-the-mill incandescent bulb does, and they last up to 10 times longer.

Dennis Chanay has a short memory.
Despite losing in the student senate presidential elections last year and being told to "not even show up" for tonight's debate between presidential candidates, Chanay is still determined. Chanay, Paola sophomore, has all but forgotten his loss last year and intends to be at the debate tonight. He doesn't necessarily want to win the election, but he wants to promote his coalition's $100 referendum fee cut.
Ignite presidential candidate Jason Boots, Plano, Texas, senior, is pictured above with his running mate for vice president, Mel Horen, Overland Park junior.
The proposed fee would reduce student fees by $46 dollars a semester from each student's current campus fees of $294.50.
"I have heard that referendum would cut fees from the Child Resource, Multicultural Resource Center, SUA/JayBowl, Rape Counseling Services, women's sports and transportation," he said. "None of that is true."
Chanay's coalition planned on filing a campaign violation against the Student Union Activities because he said the organization had spread untrue accusations about its referendum because it has made it sound wasteful when it is not.
The $100 Fee Cut coalition's main points were that students are disconnected with the Student Senate and they are trying to make it easier to pay for college. Chanay said.
Johnathan Wilson is Chanay's running mate and vice presidential candidate for the $100 Fee Cut coalition.
This is the Paola freshman's first dabble in college politics, but in high school Wilson was a member of the High School Republicans and also campaigned in Iowa for President Bush in 2004.
Wilson's long-term aspirations are to be a representative in the Kansas Legislature but currently wants to get the $100 fee cut referendum passed.
Wilson said he was prepared to be student senate vice president, but was more concerned with the $100 referendum.
"We're trying to make college more affordable for a wide array of people." Wilson said.

Jason Boots, presidential candidate of Ignite, said most people would describe his leadership style as professional, yet down to earth. But, he said, a lot of people who knew him from Student Senate never really see the goofy side of his personality.
"They don't really think of me as a hugger or as someone who wants to or will give one." Boots said.
Boots, Plano, Texas, senior, has been a member of Senate for four years. He has been the engineering senator and currently serves as the executive committee chair. The most influential experience at the University of Kansas was his involvement in the Scholarship Hall community, he said.
As far as future plans, he said he would be happy doing anything involving mechanical engineering or business and has considered a future in politics or education.
Mel Horen, vice presidential candidate for Ignite, is the only candidate involved in the Greek community.
The Overland Park junior said that her time with Alpha Gamma Delta sorority has taught her how to deal with different types of people.
"I don't think there is any other experience like living with 70 people at one time. You learn patience and you learn how to support people." Horen said.
Energetic, enthusiastic and definitely not shy is how she said most of her friends would describe her.
Horen has been involved with Senate for one year as a freshman/sophomore CLAS senator. She also served as president of Hillel, a Jewish student organization on campus, her sophomore year.
A political science major, Horen said that in the future she would like to move to Washington, D.C., but looks forward to taking on more projects at the University.
"I love the University of Kansas and all its traditions, and I really hope I can leave a mark to help make Kansas better before I graduate next year." Horen said.

Team splits with Bears

KANSAN SENIOR SPORTSWITHER
One-run games haven't been kind to the Kansas softball team this season, and Sunday's game was no exception.
Kansas dropped its 12th one-run game of the season, losing 2-1 to Baylor in Waco, Texas.
"The most frustrating thing in the last couple weeks is not getting a key hit when we need it," Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said.
about her team s struggles in one-run games.
Jayhawk batters struggled with Baylor pitcher Ashley Monceau, who allowed only two hits in six and one-third. James Kesey

and one-third Humphreys innings. Kansas'
offense finally found its rhythm in the top of the seventh, but it wasn't enough.
After senior second baseman Jessica Moppin scored on senior shortstop Destiny Frankenstein's sacrifice fly to center field, the Jayhawks had a runner on third base with two outs, trailing by one. Freshman center fielder Stevie Crisosto moved to first after being hit by a pitch. With runners on first and third with two outs, junior first baseman Nicole Washburn had a chance to tie the game with a single, but filed out to right field, ending the game.
Kansas senior pitcher Serena Settlemier (12-5) pitched four innings, allowed two runs out two hits, and struck out four batters.
"What Kassie has been doing the last couple weeks is throwing the ball among the best in the country." Bunge said. "She dominated a really good Baylor lineup."
Junior pitcher Kassie Humphreys pitched two innings in relief, allowing two hits and striking out three batters. She has allowed just four hits in her last 33 innings on the mound
Before leaving on a four-game road trip, Bunge told her team it was "crunch time," if it wanted to qualify for postseason play.
"I think they've played wen, Bunge said. "Yesterday was a big game for us. We continue to impress. We're a team nobody in the country wants to see."
Kansas won Saturday's game 2-1 in 11 innings. Humphreys pitched the complete game, tying a career-high with 13 strikeouts. She held the Bears scoreless through the first 10 innings
At the top of the 11th inning, senior outfielder Nettie Pierros was placed on second base by international softball rule. Pierros moved to third after a bunt by Moppin and scored on Settlemier's two-run home run.
Moppin and Settlemier each had two hits for the Hawkways.
Kansas is off until Wednesday, when it travels to Missouri for the first of two games this season against the Tigers. First pitch is set for 5 p.m.
Settlemier's home run Saturday was her 17th of the season, second best in the nation.
Softball notes:
Saturday's victory was Kansas' third against a ranked opponent this season.

Leaving off where they did the night before, Kansas and Texas Tech kicked off the game scoring a run apiece in the first innning.
Senior right-hander Kodiak Quick struggled briefly.
Two weeks ago, Kansas (22
13, 6-6) returned home from
Nebraska 2-4 in the Big 12 Con-
ference. Coach Ritch Price said
that his team was trying to survive,
just making it through the tough part of its schedule with an injury-plagued lineup.
What they must do, he said then, was win the series against Missouri and Texas Tech.
On Sunday, Kansas, ranked No. 24 by Baseball America, clinched the series victory against No. 26 Texas Tech (23-13, 5-6). It was the second series victory in a row. Nowadays, no series victory is complete without a new record or milestone attained by senior closer Don Czyz. Sunday's game was no different, as the closer and co-captain recorded his Big 12 leading and Kansas baseball single-season record 12th save.
"Coach Price is a good motivator," sophomore John Allman said. "Everyone wants to play for him. He really gets us going, every game is the biggest game of the year."
Win he said, and win they did.
Drew Evans on a two-RBI double were not enough to tamper with Quick obtaining his team-leading sixth victory. He finished his outing tagged for three runs on six hits and struck out six Red Raiders, tying his season high.
What is sometimes not so certain is the team's hitting, but Czyz and the rest of the pitching staff, had their hitters behind them on Sunday.
The pair of runs he surrendered to freshman outfielder
"I'm not the ra-ra guy that Matt is. He's perfect for that role. He also leads by example on the field," Czyz said of his fellow captain Matt Baty. "Ritchie does with his defense and his hitting. I've just got to do my part and slam the door at the end."
"I'm really proud of our pitching," Price said. "Until we get all of our players back offensively and we're clicking on all cylinders, our pitching's been carrying us."
Back in the lead off spot, sophomore designated hitter Brock Simpson led off the Jayhawk's half of the first, singling up the middle and later scoring on a senior outfielder Gus Milner ground out.
On Sunday afternoon, Kansas tacked on a run in each inning for the first three innings, keeping a consistent mix of base hits, walks and Texas Tech errors to build a 3-1 lead.
Although struggling with slugging numbers as of late, Milner broke out with a triple four innings later, highlighting a two-run fifth that doubled as winning runs.
After the game, Price took time to thank the fans who he said were giving his team a home field advantage the team had not experienced since he arrived at Kansas four years ago. But Allman's attribution to Price's motivation might be the actual key to the Jayhawks success.
Freshman right-hander Paul Smyth and Czyz threw 3.1 scoreless innings in Quick's relief.
The Jayhawks took a small rest from their consecutive inning scoring in the fourth but revived their wints in the fifth.
"I got on them pretty good before the game today. I kind of challenged them about this being the biggest game of the year." Price said. "I'm really proud of them. Every time we've been challenged in the face of adversity, we find a way to win."

ATHLETICS DEPARTMENT
NCAA punishes baseball team
BY ERIC JORGENSEN
ejorgensen@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
The Kansas baseball team will lose .24 of a scholarship for the 2007-08 academic school year.
In February, the Athletics Department sent appeals to the NCAA regarding low Academic Progress Rate scores for the football and baseball teams. Saturday, it learned the football appeal was accepted but the other appeal was not.
Baseball coach Ritchie Price already committed next year's scholarships to players, so the .24 of a scholarship will not go into effect for another year. The NCAA will not take away a scholarship from a player who was already promised one.
According to Paul Buskirk, associate athletics director of student athlete support services, the baseball team is allotted 11.7 scholarships per year. Following the NCAA appeal, that number will drop to 11.46 scholarships for 2007-08.
The football and baseball teams had players transfer and players that were academically ineligible. Those circumstances caused the NCAA to administer
Baseball, football and women's basketball all finished below the Academic Progress Rate minimum standard. Women's basketball, however, did not receive punishment because it did not have enough players to constitute a fair number in regards to the progress rate.
punishment.
The department appealed the baseball and football rulings, because it said the circumstances in which the players left were beyond its control. The NCAA agreed with it for football, but not baseball.
Buskirk originally said he thought both appeals would go through.
As for losing part of a scholarship, Buskirk said the NCAA would give a harsher punishment to programs that finished the past two years below a score of 900 than ones that finished between 900 and 925. Baseball finished less than 900 the past two years.
Jim Marchiony, associate athletics director of external affairs, said the department had not held discussions with the coaches besidesnotifying them of the NCAA rulings. He said no further talks were needed.
Academic Progress Rate scores for the current academic year will not be tallied until September. The department will then submit the numbers to the NCAA, which will determine where Kansas stands in its academic achievement.
"We can only assume the NCAA is holding very tightly to the standards they appointed," Buskirk said. "But we are moving forward."
"There isn't a coach who who is not aware of how important the APR is," Marchiony said. "All our coaches are aware of what needs to be done.

'Hawks lose Kansas Cup
ROWING
Kansas wins one of four races

The First Varsity Eight carries its beat on the dock Saturday after winning a race against Kansas State's varsity team at Burcham Park. The First Varsity Eight beat the Wildcats by 2.1 seconds with a final time of 6:14.8 for its only win of the day. The Kansas Cup went to Kansas State with an overall score of 13-8.
Seniors on the Kansas rowing team were recognized with flowers and announcements on senior day, but many still showed sorrow despite the celebration.
Kansas lost the Kansas Cup against Kansas State on Saturday, 13-8, in the seniors' last home race on the Kansas River.
"Each race is a building block for the future and we are going to get better throughout the year and work on style and technique," senior captain Jennifer Ebel said.
Each of the seven varsity seniors — Ebel, Alexis Boston, Tayler Eldridge, Ardis Johnson, Kris Lazar, Paige Phillips and Gillan Van Ruyven — were honored after the race.
"Their work ethic, compassion and showing that they care for all of the younger girls means so much to this team," Kansas coach Rob Catloth said. "They set the standard each and every day in practice and in matches and also hate to lose, which helps out when it comes down to it."
The Jayhawks lost the first three races of the event, but
Catloth told his team after the race in a huddle that he was pleased with their competitiveness.
finished on a good note by winning the final race of the day. The team still fell to the Wildcats for the second straight year.
Kansas State and Texas are the only other universities in the Big 12 with a rowing team.
"Kansas State was and is always really good competition," Catloth said. "They are ahead of us competitively with races at Texas and San Diego so their schedule puts them ahead of us a little bit right now."
"For the rest of the season the races are going to get bigger and tougher as we move ahead," Lazar said. "We needed a close race today to motivate us during
the next few weeks to get better, which is what we are going to do."
Kansas will travel to Tennessee Friday and Saturday for the Southern IRA's and to Minneapolis to take on Minnesota the following week. The team will wrap up the regular season in Kansas City, Kan., for the Big 12 invitational.
Despite the loss, Catloth said the team's focus was on the future.
"This race meant a lot to our seniors but we are just going to get better every day," Catloth said. "We still have some things to decide with our boat selections and how things are going with our team so it is still early. All we want to do is peak at the right time."

The beauty of athletics is that you can defeat an opponent mentally easier than you can physically. So, starting with the football team, Kansas coach Mark Mangino and his staff should take a page from former Iowa coach Hayden Fry.
You throw on a little Raffi and other children's music and you have the recipe for intimidation of the most hideous variety.
Mangino should take it a step further and have adorable little ponies, kitties and teddy bears painted on the wall. Basically, Rainbow Bright and the Care Bears are your friends.
The opposing Iowa locker rooms are painted pink.
Can you imagine Nebraska getting pumped up for a game against Kansas in Memorial Stadium? It gets better.
This could also be applied to the basketball team. Kansas has its history, atmosphere and ambiance of Allen Fieldhouse on its side. In a way,
that should speak for itself, but then I wouldn't be able to write any more columns.
In the visiting locker rooms, you take a similar approach. Only you take a page from the Boston Celtics when they played in the old Boston Garden. Make sure it's either too hot or too cold in the visiting locker room. Then, like they used to do, turn off all the hot water in the showers.
This may have been a strategy — lull the other team to sleep before defeating that team on the field. Who knows if it works?
This brings us back to the baseball game yesterday. The Jayhawks played songs, like the Beach Boys "Good Vibrations" and The Beatles "Hey Jude" on the loud speakers at Hoglund Ballpark.
But at the end of Sunday, the Jayhawks had another victory and took the series against Texas Tech, two games to one.
And who knows, maybe next fall Barney the dinosaur could lead Kansas State on to the field at Memorial Stadium?
Just a thought.

The Kansas tennis team played host to Missouri and No. 8 Baylor this weekend in the last two home matches of the spring season.
It was also the last home match for Christine Skoda since Sunday was senior day.
Kansas defeated Missouri by a score of 6-1 at the Robinson Courts on Saturday but lost to Baylor 6-1 on Sunday.

the score of 7-5, 7-5.
"It's just another match — yeah, it's my last match at home, but its not my last match," Skoda said.
Kansas started the match against Baylor when it lost two out of the three doubles matches. The only doubles team to win was the team of sophomore Lauren Hommell and freshman Edina Horvath. They won by a score of 8-7.
"The girls wanted to step up for Skoda this weekend, knowing this is her last weekend playing on our home court as well as the team wanting to do well, they wanted to do well for Skoda," Kansas coach Amy Hall-Holt said.
Skoda won in singles competition against Missouri on Saturday in two sets and lost in singles competition against Baylor on Sunday. It took a tiebreaker
The doubles loss gave Baylor the early 1-0 lead going into the singles matches.
Horvath was the only player for Kansas to win a singles match when she won in two sets by a score of 6-3, 7-6.
"I thought they performed very well and competed very well with a Top 10 school," Hall-Holt said.
Baylor was the first Top 10 school Kansas had played this season.

With the loss, Kansas snapped a five match home winning streak.
Sophomore Elizaveta Avdeeva's 11-game singles winning streak also came to an end. Horvath now has the team's current longest winning streak, at nine singles matches.
"I think we played better
On Saturday, Kansas' only loss to Missouri came at the No. 6 spot when sophomore Stephanie Smith lost in three sets. Freshman Ksenia Bukina's match also went to three sets, but she prevailed in the final set.
The weekend put Kansas overall record at 12-8, and moved its conference record to 3-5.
The next Kansas match will be April 15 when it plays Colorado in Boulder.

Jayhawk baseball sweeps Tigers

Junior third baseman and pitcher Jason Gibson winds up a pitch to his Missouri opponent on Sunday at the ice Fields. The Jayhawks won the game with a dominating 7-2 victory. The Jayhawk Baseball Club's record now stands at 7-3.
Standing two games out of the playoff race with only seven games remaining in the regular season, the Kansas club baseball team entered Sunday's match-up with Missouri in need of a victory. Luckily for the Jayhawks, they were able to spend Sunday afternoon racking up runs on a hapless Tiger pitching staff.
The Jajahwys plated five in the first inning and didn't let up until the game was called after seven innings, the final score standing 2-7 in Kansas' favor.
Kansas used an early three-run home run from catcher Glenn Bauer, Shawnee Mission junior, to pick up momentum, and never relinquished the lead. Andy Hicks, Neodesha junior, helped the Jayhawks' cause with a two-run double into the left field corner.
The Missouri pitching staff had trouble finding the strike zone during the game. The Tigers issued eleven walks and gave the Jayhawks plenty of easy opportunities to score. Kansas manager BJ Rains, St. Louis, Mo., sophomore, was pleased with his hitters' plate discipline.
"We knew if we took a lot of pitches and got deep into their bullpen, they'd run out of pitchers," Rains said.
The three Missouri pitchers who took the mound Sunday combined to allow 18 hits,
while their Kansas counterparts only gave up eight.
Kansas handed the ball to Jason Gibson, Overland Park junior, who picked up the win and struck out three batters in four innings pitched.
Assisted by his team's explosive offense, Gibson said he felt little pressure on the mound.
"Our guys gave me a lot of backup and really made it comfortable for me up there," Gibson said.
The Kansas bullpen was called upon to pitch the final three innings of the game, and did so admirably, allowing no runs and only two baserunners.
Jayhawk left-hander Jonathan Anderson, Momence, Illinois, sophomore, used a nasty curve ball to retire the Tigers in the sixth, and Landon Lukens, Medicine Lodge sophomore, closed the game cleanly.
The Jayhawks are still in the playoff hunt, but will most likely need to win each of their seven remaining games to reach the postseason. The team will kick off a four-game series Saturday April 22 at Missouri before finishing the regular season April 29 and 30 at the St. Louis University.

It didn't take long for the Kansas track and field team to show off its talent at the Texas Relays in Austin, Texas, this weekend.
The first event in which the Jayhawks participated was the 4x800 meter relay, as the men's squad placed sixth and the women's squad placed fifth in the highly competitive event.
Freshman Zlata Tarasova's toss of 193 feet 10 inches broke the Kansas hammer record by 10 feet and placed her at third in the event.
Sophomore thrower Egor Agafonov placed third in the men's hammer toss with a distance of 217 feet, eight inches,
just nine inches short of the Kansas hammer record.

Fellow All-American senior Sheldon Battle placed fourth in the discus event Section A with a throw of 191 feet, eight inches, also good for a regional qualifying performance.
Also throwing the discus for a regional qualifying performance was junior Cody Roberts, whose
throw of 173 feet, 11 inches gave him a fifth-place finish in the Section B group.
Junior Abby Emsick, Kansas's record holder in the discus, threw a regionally-qualifying toss of 155 feet, six inches in the women's Section A group, good for an 11th-place finish.
Battle also competed in the shot put and placed third. His toss of 64 feet, four inches qualified him for regionalals.
Freshman thrower Stephanie Horton placed 10th in Section A of the women's shot put, Horton's toss of 47 feet 5 inches exceeded the regional standard.
The Jayhawks will compete in the Tom Botts Invitational in Columbus, Mo., next weekend.
MLS Wizards win close game against Dynamo

HOUSTON — Jose Luis Burciaga Jr. scored in the 90th minute to give Kansas City a 2-1 victory over the Houston Dynamo on Saturday night.
The Dynamo (1-1) dominated much of the game, but defensive laps allowed the Wizards (2-0) to escape with the victory.
Brian Ching, who scored four of Houston's goals in its 5-0 season-opening win against Colorado, broke a scoreless tie in the 64th minute when he headed in a shot off an assist from
Kevin Goldthwaite. That lead lasted less than 2 minutes; Sasha Victorine scoring on a header off a corner kick from Burciaga in the 66th minute. Houston had several opportunities to score, but Burciaga slipped behind the Dynamo defense to fire in a shot past goalkeeper Pat Onstad for the victory.

Defense: Photos will clear lacrosse team
NCAA
BY SAMUEL SPIES
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DURHAM, N.C. — Time-stamped photographs will show an exotic dancer was already injured and "very impaired" when she arrived at a party where she claims she was raped by members of Duke University's men's lacrosse team, an attorney for one of the players said Sundaw
"I believe that the public will soon be able to learn the truth.
The alleged victim has not returned repeated messages seeking comment, but her father said Sunday she hasn't changed her story.
and that these allegations are to totally false and without merit," said Durham attorney Bill Thomas.
Thomas declined to identify the player he represents and said he would not release the photos, taken by at least two cameras, until pending DNA tests are completed. He also wouldn't say whether the photos were taken by a lacrosse team member or someone else; court documents have indicated that only team members were
present at the March 13 partv.
No one has been charged in the case, but the allegations that members of the nearly all-white team raped the woman, a black student at a nearby university, have rocked both Duke and Durham.
District Attorney Mike Nifong, who was expected to return this week from an out-of-town conference and has not commented on the case in the past several days, has said
previously he is confident a rape occurred. Court documents said a medical exam of the alleged victim found injuries consistent with sexual assault.
The allegations have led to the resignation of coach Mike Pressler, the cancellation of the lacrosse season and the suspension of one player from school.
Nuggets guard shot, wounded
NBA
BY ARNIE STAPLETON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DENVER — Denver Nuggets rookie guard Julius Hodge was shot and wounded early Saturday while driving on a highway after visiting a nightclub but is expected to make a full recovery, officials said.
Sheriff's deputies said the 22-year-old player was struck in his lower body. The team said he was in fair condition.
Adams County Sheriff Doug Darr said Hodge visited the Paladium club, where hip-hop artist Juelz Santana performed Friday night, but the motive for the shooting wasn't known and no suspects were in custody.
"We don't have any information or indication that there was an alteration earlier," Darr said. He said it was too soon to say whether the shooting was random.
Nuggets coach George Karl said he believes Hodge was hit three times in his lees.
"The preliminary reports are that he's going to be fine. He should be able to play again in two to three weeks." Karl said.
Nuggets general manager Kiki Vandeweghe said Hodge was in good spirits.
"He's obviously a little shaken up, but he's doing fine," Vandweeghe said.
Hodge was on Interstate 76 in north Denver at about 2 a.m. when another vehicle pulled alongside and someone inside fired several shots, Adams County Sheriff's Sgt. Louis Dixon said. A passenger in Hodge's vehicle flagged down another motorist, who took Hodge and the passenger to the hospital.
Darr said Hodge's passenger was "mildly injured." Darr would not identify the hospital.
Witnesses told investigators two people may have been in the shooter's car.
Dixon said investigators don't know the name of the motorist who stopped and are hoping that motorist and any other witnesses come forward.
Dixon said Hodge's passenger has been interviewed and is not a suspect. He declined to release the passenger's name and would not say what kind of vehicle Hodge was driving, but Paladium manager Jose Ramirez said he thought it was a black or navy BMW 7-series.
Ramirez said Hodge and Santana both arrived at the club around 11 p.m. and that Hodge spent most of his time with Santana, even getting on stage.
"I've checked with every one of my security guys and no one saw him arguing with anyone," Ramirez said. He said Hodge left around 1:45 a.m.
"Apparently Julius did nothing to provoke this at all," Vandeweghe said.
The mood was somber at the Nuggets' shootaround before Saturday night's game against Golden State in Denver.
"There was a bit of trauma hitting us this morning. We were really solemn, crying," Karl said. "Right now we are just happy that everything is OK."
Forward Reggie Evans said the players learned of the shooting when they arrived at the Pepsi Center for the shootaround. No other Nuggets were at the club with Hodge, Darr said.

5-Dynamic, 4-Positive, 3-Average to 10-Different
▼ HOROSCOPES
***** The unexpected punctuates your responses. You will want to maintain a strong hand in your plans and your daily routine. Take a step forward, and a partner will step up to the plate and help you. Easy does it.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
Tonight: Work as late as need be.
**May 20**
* * * Sometimes you get in your way, though, in a saint's because of their intervention, positive happenings their way. Drop the word "no" from your vocabulary, if you know what's good for you. Others respond to your actions.
Tonight Let your ingenuity cook up your plans.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
**20. As you might hear, you have too much on your plate and far too much ground to cover. If you think before you leap into action, you'll feel much better. Others need your strong intellect and planning skills. Tonight. In a whirlwind.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
***** You say and do too much.
What you find is that plans and situations are subject to lightning bolts, which not only illuminate a question but also encourage some major changes.
Tonight. Stay in control.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
**** Get a better grasp and stronger control of your finances, and you will feel much better for a sustained period than you have in a while. Knowing when to say enough or no can make or break your financial security and emotional happiness.
Tonight: Gather your bills.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sep. 22)
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
***** You are in prime shape, ready to get everything done as quickly as possible. Though you might be a bit uncomfortable, you trigger a lot of actions. Be aware of the waves that you send out.
Tonight: What would please you?
**** Know when to pull back and vanish. Your nerves might be fried from a lack of sleep or a need to change your lifestyle. You can no longer say no to the inevitable. You might have your hands full, but you'll get a lot done.
Tonight: Get some extra rest
ht: Get some extra rest.
YOUR. 23-NOV. 21)
**You might have way too much
ground to stay in, and be very likely that
Even if you are a bit tired and drawn, you
will discover that a lot falls into place. Know
when to say no to a suggestion. Tonight
Swap war stories of the weekend.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
***** You might find plans very difficult,
as someone -- which, incidentally, could
be you -- could be changing plans left and
right. Stability might need to be achieved if
you want a more professional image.
Tonight: Work late.
CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19)
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22- Jan. 19)
***** It behoves you to take an overview, to see events and people with a better perspective. If what occurs around you joils you, take another look. You are missing something. Laughter loosens up the tension. Tonight: Take a mental break. Go for a drive.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
(Jan. 20-Feb. 16)
***** Working with one other person could prove to be mighty expensive if you aren't careful. Work as a team, not as adversaries. You'll get a lot done quickly if you simply relax. Listen to someone who has always been a source of information.
Tonight. Accept someone else's praise.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
**** Others might rule with an iron fist, causing you to be highly reactive. How smart is that? Stay on top of what must be done and know for the moment that you might need to defer to others. Be intelligent. Be docile. Tonight. The only answer is yes.

MASTERS
Morrv Gash/The Associated Press
Phil Mickelson hits to the 18th green during third round play of the Masters golf tournament at the Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Ga., Sunday.
AUGUSTA, Ga. — Phil Mickelson is a Masters champion again, and now he's making it look easy.
The golfer was once known as a lovable loser and the one who went a dozen years and 42 majors before figuring out how to win golf's biggest events. Mickelson captured his secondstraight major Sunday at Augusta National without needing a nail-biting finish. He closed with a three under-par score of 69 for a two-shot victory over Tim Clark. This year's Masters championship gives Mickelson his second green jacket in three years.
The only surprise was the way he won.
There were no thrills for Phil, rather calculated shots

that forced Fred Couples, Tiger Woods and Vijay Singh to try to catch him. Instead, they stumbled along with three-putts and a litany of other mistakes that allowed Mickelson to stroll up the 18th fairway with no worries.
Mickelson won his first major at Augusta two years ago with an 18-foot birdie put on the final hole. Then he added the PGA Championship last year at Baltusrol with a flop shot to 2 feet for another decisive birdie on the final hole.

Mickelson's only bogey on a breezy afternoon at Augusta National came when it no longer
Following this year's victory, Mickelson, didn't leap with arms thrust into the air, as he did two years ago. He simply smiled and walked off the green and into the arms of his wife and children.
Mickelson finished the tournament at seven under-par with a score of 281 and earned $1.26 million, putting him atop the PGA Tour money list. The victory also moved him up to No. 2 in the world ranking behind Woods.

BASEBALL
Czyz's game 'off the charts'
BY SHAWN SHROYER
sshroyer@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTSWRITER
When Don Czyz took the mound with one out and the bases loaded in the top of the eighth inning on Friday, he tied the Big 12 career appearance record with 111. When the senior closer recorded the final out of the game with Kansas ahead, 5-3, he tied Jimmy Walker for the Kansas single season save record with 11.
Czyz broke the record when he earned his twelfth save on Sunday during KU's 5-3 victory against Texas Tech.
"It's a tribute to his mentality and how hard he's worked," sophomore outfielder John Allman said.
Czyz
"He's the best Ive had in 20 years in the game," Kansas coach Ritch Price said. "What a feeling. He's
just really special and he rises to that level every time you give him the baseball. His intensity level, his stuff and his make-up, it's just off the charts."
Czyz and freshman pitcher Paul Smyth have given the KU bullpen the kindofconsistencyitdidn'ttavelastyear. In 2005, Czyz and junior Sean Land — when the two weren't starting —
and senior Kodiak Quick anchored the bullpen. When the ball was left in the hands of Kansas' other relievers, it wasn't pretty. Relievers other than Czyz, Land and Quick had a 5.73 ERA in 2005. Weighing down their overall statistics were their poor outings during Big 12 play. Against conference opponents, Kansas' bullpen was as sporadic as ever with an 8.62 ERA, walking 18 batters while only striking out 17.
This season, Price's overhauled bullpen has emerged in Big 12 play and has been nearly untouchable since March 26. Over that nine-game span, Kansas relievers have backed up their starters and saved Czyz's arm with a 1.44 ERA in 25 innings.
Before Czyz came in for the save on Friday, Smyth took over for Land in the fifth inning with the bases loaded and two outs. Smyth got out of the jam, forcing a line out by Texas Tech junior Tyler Reves to KU sophomore Matt Berner at second base. Smyth went on to earn his first career victory. After the game, Price praised his middle relief pitchers for shutting down the opposition before Czyz came in, something he said his bulpen hadn't done in previous years. Despitie ty
Against one of the best Big 12 offenses in Texas Tech, Kansas' bullpen reached its pinnacle while Czyz etched his name at the top of Big 12 and Kansas record books.
ing Big 12 and Kansas records, Czyz downplayed the occasion.
"I don't know, I'm not done yet," said Czyz, about what the records would mean to him when his college days were over. "The most impressive thing is going to be turning this program around."
"About as good as it does winning all these games and being in the top of the conference," Czyz said, about what it felt like to be moving up the record charts.
Sunday's 5-3 victory was nearly a carbon copy of Friday's victory. After 5.2 innings from Quick, Smyth entered the game. In 1.1 innings of work, Smyth kept Texas Tech from scoring.
Czyz may not know the significance of his records yet, but if history is any indicator, the impact of Czyz's saves record could be felt in June. The last Kansas pitcher to record more than 10 saves in a season was Walker in 1997
— the last year Kansas reached the College World Series.
Czyz came in after Smyth and made his Big 12 career-best 112th appearance. With Kansas up two runs, the Kansas single season saves record was also within Czyz's reach. Czyz earned his 12th save six out later. The record was his.
Even with two records freshly under his belt, all Czyz could talk about was his team.

Fridav. April 7 — Kansas 5, Texas Tech 3
In the meantime, Teux Tech (22-12, 4-5) took the lead with a pair of ground outs.
Kansas struck first in a match-up of Baseball America top 30 teams. In the first inning, senior shortstop Ritchie Price hit the first pitch to center field. Senior center fielder Matt Baty quickly knocked him in with a double. The Jayhawks (21-12, 5-5) didn't score again until they came from behind in the fourth.
Senior co-captain Matt Baty went 4-for-4 with an RBI and two doubles in his first game at Hogland Ballpark this season. Senior Don Czyz tied a Kansas and Big 12 record, collecting his 11th save of the season.
Saturday, April 8 Texas Tech 8,
Kansas 6
No. 24 Kansas dropped game two of the series to No. 26 Texas Tech,
Two batters later, senior designated hitter Matt Batt walked in sophomore Brock Simpson, who was called in to pinch hit, to bring the score to 8-6.
Kansas loaded the bases with one out in the bottom of the ninth inning, using a pair of errors and walks.
An edge-of-your-seat ninth inning revived a four-inning Kansas scoring drought. The Jayhawks cooled off after tallying five runs in the first four innings.
That's all the runs Kansas could manage, and although seven hitters stepped to the plate in the ninth, none recorded a hit.

Daschle: We need to build a strong country
BY ANNE WELTMER
aweltmerekansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
"The question is, how do we build an American as good and strong as its people?" Daschle said.
Tom Daschle thinks the United States needs to make use of its people and resources to leave a better country for the next generations, a tradition past generations have kept throughout U.S. history.
The former U.S. Senate Majority Leader and Democrat gave the annual Dole Lecture to a full Lied Center at 8 p.m. Monday. He discussed issues ranging from a need for better education and health care to the need for energy independence.
WWW.KANSAN.COM
He said today the U.S. government needed to provide good education and health care for its people. With that, the American people can accomplish anything, he said.
The United States finished 37th in the World Health Organization. Daschle said the ranking was unacceptable. "What would they say if we came in 37th in the Olympics?" he said
Almost 30 years ago, both the wealthiest and poorest fifths of the nation's income doubled, he said. More recently, the poor have stayed the same and only the wealthiest have grown, making the economic growth "terribly lop-sided," he said.
He said the U.S. gains 65,000 new engineers a year, while China has $6 million, and the U.S. became, for the first time, a net importer of technology in 2005. All of this could change if the government provided education for its people. That won't happen when the budget deficit will possibly be lessened with the $12.7 billion cut in Federal Student Loans.

PARKING DEPARTMENT
Parking fees to rise
BY MICHAEL PHILLIPS
mphillips@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
The new Park-and-Ride lot on West Campus will create an additional 1,500 parking spaces, as well as extra fees for the more than 11,000 people who use University parking.
Beginning next fall, all parking permits will cost an additional $20 to help fund the lot, at 23rd and Iowa streets, and the five new buses that are being purchased.
The buses, called Park and Ride Express, will be free for anyone to ride. They will run from the new lot to campus, with approximately 11 stops on the route. The buses will pass by Daisy Hill, but not stop there.
Because of the $1.3 million price of the buses, the parking department sought help from the federal government, which is financing 80 percent of the purchase price. One of the stipulations, however, was that the buses be free to the public.
The current Park-and-Ride lot, which is at the Lied Center, will be used for overflow residence hall parking and special events parking.
Even though the buses are free, students will still need a Park-and-Ride permit to park in the new lot. That permit comes with a KU on Wheels bus pass, which will still be needed to ride the other campus buses.
Another change is that freshmen living off campus will not
be allowed to purchase a yellow permit, which is used by most off-campus students and allows parking in the lots by Memorial Stadium, the Student Fitness and Recreation Center and Allen Fieldhouse. Freshmen will instead have to purchase the Park-and-Ride permit.
The new lot is expected to alleviate congestion on campus. A study done in 2004 estimated the University needed an extra 1,800 parking spaces to meet demand.
In addition, the University and the city of Lawrence will soon conduct a joint study on the possibility of linking the city's "T" bus system with the KU on Wheels.

Few show up for Senate debate
Student vote starts today for Senators three referendums
Only 12 people, five of whom wore T-shirts in support of Delta Force, attended a formal debate Monday night in the Kansas Union among the three coalitions in this year's Student Senate election.

nkelley@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
The small turnout, however, did not stop Ignite, Delta Force and $100 Fee Cut candidates from discussing the role of Student Senate at the University of Kansas and what changes they would make if elected.
When asked about the conflicting views of each coalition by a panel made up of one student and two faculty members, Delta
Red Corn used the example of the coalition's support of the University's divestment from Sudan. He also said that Delta Force T-shirts were printed by sweatshop-free companies and its fliers were on recycled paper.
Delta Force
Force presidential candidate Studie Red Corn and vice presidential candidate Bridget Franklin said their platforms all stemmed from activism and social responsibility.
He said Delta Force was most interested in issues that didn't affect just KU students. The impact of Delta Force's platforms would reach further than the University, he said, while still benefitting KU groups.
"What we want is change and that means a bigger picture than just ourselves," Red Corn said.

Students rally against bill
BY KRISTEN JARBOE
kjarboe@kansai.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Protesters gathered on Wescoe Beach Monday to voice concerns about the immigration bill being discussed in Congress. Students walked out of class at 11:45 a.m. to join a few Lawrence residents in the day proclaimed a National Day of Action for Immigrant Justice.
Kim Coughlin, Lawrence senior, helped organize the event as a Community Action Committee member and was the first of nine speakers. She stood up to speak on one of the stone planters on Wescoe Beach under a tree with a sign that read "No one is illegal." Her voice rose as she continued.
"We're asking people to take action and stand in solitude of undocumented people," she said. "The so-called compromise bills are not really compromised bills.
"If you look at the language of the bills, the people are referred to as aliens and they are not fucking aliens. They see with their eyes and eat with their mouths. They're human beings."
Provisions of the bill include: Illegal immigrants who have been in the country for at least five years could receive legal status after meeting several conditions, including payment of a $2,000 fine and any back taxes, clearing a background check and learning English. After six more years, they could apply for permanent residency without leaving the United States. They could seek citizenship five years later.
Also, illegal immigrants who have been in the country between two and five years could obtain a temporary work visa
after reporting to a border point of entry. Illegal immigrants who have been in the United States for less than two years would be required to leave the country and apply for re-entry alongside anyone else seeking to immigrate.
For about an hour, students spoke out against the bill, played drums and chanted "No! No! No one is illegal!"
Beth Chronister, Topeka senior, spoke about her work as a social worker with students at Northeast Middle School in Kansas City, Mo., in an after-school program. She said the bill was de-humanizing and made the children and her felons.
Emily Patrick, Kansas City, Kan., sophomore, recently went to El Salvador as part of the SHARE Foundation to hear people's stories and help them in various ways, such as holding a funeral service because they couldn't afford one.
"In talking with some of the younger people, I learned that 12-year-olds knew more about U.S. government than I did," she said.
Lawrence residents who attended the rally included Gwen Wiens, who said, "Just because someone comes from countries with poverty doesn't mean they should be used for profit. It's sad that families are being divided because of these laws. Families can't come here."
Ronald Francisco, professor of political science, said that issues like this happened every 10 years. He estimated that normally about 1 percent of the population felt strongly enough about a particular issue to take part in a physical demonstration, but that about 5 percent of the population were protesting this bill.

SAN FRANCISCO - A community college baseball player cannot sue to recover damages from the opposing school even though he was intentionally beaned in the head by a pitch, the California Supreme Court has ruled.

"Being hit by a pitch is an inherent risk of baseball," Justice Kathryn Mickle Werdegar wrote for the 6-1 majority Thursday. It is "so accepted by custom that a pitch intentionally thrown at a batter has its own terminology: 'brushback,' 'beanball,' 'chin music.'

Kan. court says dog's warmth equals worth
KANSAS CITY, Kan. - How much could a pet dog be worth? According to a Kansas appeals court, the answer for one Yorkshire terrier is about $1,300.
The case began when Sarah Burgess took her tiny terrier Murphy for a shampoo and a cut with a Kansas City, Kan., groomer. Murphy came out limping, and eventually had surgery for a dislocated hip. Burgress took the $1,309
veterinary bill to Shampooch Pet Grooming, saying her dog must have been injured there.
A Wyandotte County judge first ruled in her favor, ordering the groomer to pick up the tab. But Shampooch appealed, leaving the Kansas Court of Appeals to determine Friday the question of a pet's worth. If Burgess bought Murphy for $175, then why should a groomer have to pay the full veterinary bill for a 13-year-old dog?
Burgess' attorney said, "What is the value of a wet face-licking received first thing in the morning? To a 'cat person' it is probably nothing but to a dog owner who has raised her friend from a puppy it is like the MasterCard ad — priceless."

ODD NEWS Freak giant hailstone hits ground in Oakland
OAKLAND, Calif. -- Even the experts are having trouble explaining why a solid block of ice fell from the sky, crashed and left a 3-foot hole in the grass.
The ice fell at Bushrod Park in Oakland when homeowner Jacek Purat was waiting to show apartments to prospective renters Saturday. No one was injured, police said.
"It was totally amazing... I saw this flash, like a streak" he said. "Then I saw this explosion, like a big boom, I came over and it (the field) was all covered with ice.
"Some were this big," Purat said, making a head-size circle with his hands.
Brooks and Judith Mencher said they were standing on their back porch when they heard a sound like a rocket. "It kind of went 'whoosh!'" Brooks Mencher said.
The ice block was about the size of the hole - 3 feet wide and 21/2 feet deep.
The ice was pure water, so "it didn't come from a toilet on a plane or anything like that," said Lt. Charles Glass of the Oakland Fire Hazardous Materials Team.
Such incidents are not uncommon because ice can build up on airplanes and fall as they prepare to land, said Tony
Hirsch, an aviation expert.
The National Weather Service said storms haven't been violent enough to hatch a gigantic hailstone.

Cygirl put on leather gloves, caught the bird, took it outside and released it.

LEGISLATURE
Bill waits for signature
BY FRED A. DAVIS III
tavis@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
A bill that would give Kansas Board of Regents schools money earned from tuition interest is now awaiting Gov. Kathleen Sebelius' signature before it can become a law.
The legislation was received by the governor's office Monday afternoon, according to Megan Ingmire, a spokeswoman for the governor.
Passed overwhelmingly by both the Kansas House of Representatives and Senate in late March, the governor has 10 days to review the bill that would give nearly $8.5 million from interest on tuition dollars to the Regents schools. The University of Kansas would receive $3.3 million
dollars according to figures released by the Kansas Board of Regents.
"This would be huge for us," said Josh Bender, Student Legislative Awareness Board director on the ramifications of the bill to the University.
Bender said that the University and the other six Regents' schools have been working on the bill since 2001.
As it is now, when a student writes a check for tuition, that check is cashed in Topeka and any interest that is accrued is put into a general state coffer, a general fund, said Kip Peterson, director of government relations and communications for the Kansas Board of Regents.
Because that money is put into a fund, that money can go to any
project in the state and not necessarily back to the universities. This bill would guarantee that money goes back to the universities.
Although the bill has not become law yet, Peterson said that the Board of Regents agreed that the money would be spent on deferred maintenance projects for the first five years of the bill's existence. Once that five-year period expires, how the money is spent will be up to the discretion of each University.
Peterson remains cautiously optimistic that the governor will sign the bill. He said that the Regents along with student leaders have committed a strong desire to the governor as to how important the legislation is.

Abortion pill remains under investigation
BY ANDREW BRIDGES THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Health officials said Monday that they have ruled out the abortion pill RU-486 in one of two deaths in women who had taken the drug. The second remains under investigation.
In those four deaths, all occurring in California, the women tested positive for Clostridium sordellii, a

common but rarely fatal bacterium.
The FDA has warned doctors to watch for infection by the bug. However, the drug, also called Mifeprex or mifepristone, has not been proved to be the cause in any of those cases, the FDA has said.
The recent deaths sparked renewed calls to ban the abortion pill.
Republican Sens. Jim DeMint of South Carolina and Tom Coburn of Oklahoma, urged legislation to be passed that would suspend sales of RU-486 after the latest deaths were made public in March. The two legislators want the Government Accountability Office to review how the FDA approved the pill.

"When you see a KU on Wheels bus going down the same road as a "T" bus, it makes you think there's a better way to do it," said Donna Hultine, director of parking services.
The two systems are currently not connected, and a pass to ride one bus system is not valid on the other.
Hultine said the ultimate goal was to have a bus system that
provided transportation across the entire city of Lawrence.
"It would be really cool if ultimately you could plan a ride from your home to campus and never think about using your car," she said. "So we may get to a point where parking spaces are not as important."
The lot is scheduled to open in August, and the buses will start rolling in the days before the fall semester begins.

ABC to offer free online TV shows
BY GARY GENTILE
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — ABC will offer four prime-time shows, including "Desperate Housewives" and "Lost," on its Web site for free for two months beginning in May as it continues to expand the ways consumers can watch TV online.
The shows will include advertising that cannot be skipped over during viewing. ABC, which is owned by The Walt Disney Co., already offers ad-free episodes for $1.99 each on Apple Computer Inc.'s iTunes store.
The offerings on the ABC com Web site will also include current episodes of "Commander in Chief," as well as the entire season of "Alias," and will be available through June. New episodes will be available online
the day after they run on ABC.
The shows will be supported by advertisers, including AT&T Inc., Ford Motor Co., Procter & Gamble Co., Toyota Motor Corp. and Unilever PLC, among others.
The experiment comes as networks try to reach viewers who watch less TV in prime-time and are embracing technology that lets them watch on computers and portable devices, such as an iPod.
"It's an opportunity for us to learn more about a different model," Anne Sweeney, president of Disney-ABC Television Group, said in a panel discussion Monday at the cable industry's annual convention in Atlanta.
"None of us can live in a world of just one business model. This is about the consumer and how the consumers use all this new technology. It's consumer first,

ABC is working with advertisers to try new, interactive ads that will appear in the shows and will also offer sponsorships. Viewers will be able to pause the shows and skip to various "chapters," but will not be able to fast forward through the ads.
recently launched in2TV, which streams episodes of classic TV shows with ads.
ABC was the first network to sell TV episodes online. Since then, others, including NBC, CBS and several cable networks, have offered shows on iTunes, their own Web sites and on Google Inc.'s new video store. Time Warner Inc.'s AOL
Sweeney said that ABC would be cautious about other distribution deals, being careful to safeguard against piracy, ensure reliability of the technology, and make sure any deals are compatible with ABC brands. Whether such ventures are supported by marketing is also a concern, she said.
Sweeney said ABC had already rejected several other deals for possible distribution of TV shows, but she declined to say which ones.

City populations growing with college grads
BY STEPHEN OHLEMACHER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — College graduates are flocking to America's big cities, chasing jobs and culture and driving up home prices.
Though many of the largest cities have lost population in the past three decades, nearly all added college graduates, an analysis by The Associated Press found.
The findings offer hope for urban areas, many of which have spent decades struggling with financial problems, job losses and high poverty rates.
But they spell trouble for some cities, especially in the Northeast and Midwest, that have fallen behind the South and West in attracting educated workers.
"The largest predictor of economic well-being in cities is the percent of college graduates," said Ned Hill, professor of economic development at Cleveland State University. To do well, he said, cities must be attractive to educated people.
Nationally, a little more than one-fourth of people 25 and older had at least bachelor's degrees in 2004. Some 84 percent had high school diplomas or the equivalent.
By comparison, in 1970 only a bit more than one in 10 adults had bachelor's degrees and about half had high school diplomas.
Seattle was the best-educated city in 2004 with just over half the adults having bachelor's degrees. Following closely were San Francisco; Raleigh, N.C.; Washington and Austin, Texas.
Molly Wankel, who has a doctorate in educational administration, said she moved to the Washington area for a job, and the culture of the city pulled her from the suburbs. Wankel, 51, grew up in eastern Tennessee and works at a company that develops software and training materials. She recently bought a home in the city.
"I just enjoy walking around looking at the architecture and the way people have renovated these 100-year-old homes," Wankel said. "I love the landscaping and the lovely mix of many races, straight people, gays, singles, older people, younger people."
The AP analyzed census data from 21 of the largest cities from 1970 to 2004. The AP used every-10-year census data from 1970 to 2000, and the Census Bureau's American Community Survey for 2004.
The 21 cities were chosen because of their size and location to provide regional balance. The analysis was expanded for 2004, the latest year for data, to include all 70 cities with populations of 250,000 or more.
While most states in the Northeast have high percentages of college graduates, their big cities do not.
Massachusetts, Connecticut and New Jersey were among the top five states in the percentage of adults with college degrees in 2004. But the Northeast placed no city among the top five, and only one from the region, Boston, was in the top 20.

OUR OPINION
TUESDAY, APRIL 11, 2006
Editorial Board endorses Ignite
This year's Student Senate election offers two coalitions that vary markedly and one coalition that does not even want your vote.
One coalition brings a platform of ideas we as students should care about. Another coalition brings a platform of initiatives from which we as students will take real, tangible benefits. The third coalition has just one initiative, and it looks much bigger and better on paper then it is in reality.
- Delta Force and Ignite - and only one coalition has a platform that gives students tangible benefits - Ignite. And though neither coalition's candidates exuded enthusiasm in their interviews with the Kansan, a vote for Ignite is more likely to directly improve your quality of life at the University of Kansas.
In reality, only two coalitions have viable campaigns
Ignite's best initiative is its effort to expand campus wireless access to all classrooms and in all on-campus housing. Not only will this be beneficial, but it will also bring us up to the same standards as other universities. In order to attract the best and the brightest students, we must offer all of the
technological capabilities our generation has come to expect. Wireless Internet access is on that list.
Additionally, Ignite has a proposal to put more cash in your pockets — without drastically slashing student fees and services. Ignite has proposed to work with state legislators to exempt textbooks from state and local sales tax laws. If you spend $500 a semester on textbooks, making them tax exempt will save you almost $40. In eight semesters, you'll have saved nearly $320. That's much more than a bottle of beer.
Comparing these two coalitions is a lot like comparing apples and oranges. They have wholly different priorities, which makes them hard to choose between. Ultimately, Delta Force brings laudable goals, but too many are unrealistic ideas that present little concrete benefit to students.
When it comes right down to it, helping students is what this election should be about, and the coalition that brings the most benefits to students is the one that deserves your vote.
In this election, that coalition is Ignite.

necessarily be safer either because buses would constantly need to cross them to pull over at bus stops. The stop-and-go traffic on Jayhawk Boulevard would limit the unimpeded travel that bike lanes are meant to provide. This idea is interesting, but not that realistic or beneficial.
More Affordable textbooks Propose a university policy requiring professors to declare textbooks earlier to increase used book buyback and a university policy requiring professors to search for the lowest textbook prices and investigate bundled products that increase book prices
- Lobby state government to make textbooks sales tax-free on a state level
Tax-free textbooks could benefit all students. Without the seven-and-half cent sales tax, students could save about $40 on $500-worth of books. Getting the state government to create a duty-free book-sale system, however, would be a difficult and lengthy process. This is a good idea, but it hinges on uncertain government support.
Easily Accessible Financial Aid
- Implement software that allows students to input their student ID numbers and receive information about all financial aid that is available to them — including grants, scholarships, work study or any other available assets
- Increase awareness of and expand current financial aid advising available to all students
Information about most grants and work study opportunities is already available on students' financial aid summaries from the University. Most departments also send scholarship information to students or readily provide it to people who ask. The students most likely to earn scholarships already know where to look for them. With so many scholarship search engines already available, another way to locate scholarships may be unnecessary.
Increased Advising Resources
- Develop an interactive ARTS form that links the ARTS form, degree requirements, course descriptions and the online timetable
- An extra advising desk and a more comprehensive, interactive ARTS form could help improve the University's four-year graduate rate. Then again, plenty of resources and advisors already exist for students who take the time to find them. Students who don't take such time probably wouldn't utilize the extra resources anyway.
- Create a physical and online advising help desk to give students that extra hand in navigating their advising resources
Bike Lanes on Jayhawk Boulevard
- Designate bike lanes on Jayhawk Boulevard to make campus safer and more environmentally friendly
  - A bike lane on Jayhawk Boulevard would displace several faculty and handicap parking spaces as well as require parking department approval. The lanes wouldn't
Academic Technology Borrowing
Design, develop and implement an academic technology checkout center where students can check out laptops with needed software packages, digital cameras, video recorders or any other needed technologies.
An academic technology checkout center would give students the freedom to work on projects without having to remain in the library. As long as the program is sufficiently monitored — unlike some past initiatives, such as the Y.E.L.L.O.W. bike program — this center has the potential to provide students with more convenient access to a variety of technical resources.
Redevelopment of the Student Orgs Web Site
● Create a more visible link for current and prospective students to find student organizations in which they are interested
- Create a resources Web site and online registration tool for organizations
This initiative is practical and useful. Student senators could easily create a new resource Web site without having to wait for outside approval, like with several other initiatives. Online registration could also increase the number of students who benefit from Senate funding and resources.
Weekend Circulating SafeBus
- Create a SafeBus program that will circulate a consistent route to popular evening venues and living areas on weekend nights
- Like bike lanes on Jayhawk Boulevard, this idea is interesting, but probably not realistic. One bus wouldn't accommodate very many students. People who couldn't catch the bus during peak demand times would be unlikely to wait around for an entire circuit. Furthermore, Senate just approved increased funding for SafeRide, which should improve the system already in place. If a weekend bus program is going to work, it needs to involve enough buses to give students quick and reliable transportation. A single SafeBus wouldn't do this.
- Extend wireless to all campus classrooms
Expanding the Wireless Campus
- Initiate wireless in on-campus housing
Extending wireless Internet into on-campus housing should help attract more students to the University.
Delta Force
Make KU a leading University in Sustainability
▼ Create a Center for Sustainability
$ \blacktriangleright $ Instituting environmentally friendly initiative, such as the gray water system
The Sustainability Task Force, formed by the Provost in 2004, recently published their report on recommendations for campus that included plans for a Center for Sustainability. Therefore, whether Delta Force wins or not, this initiative will continue forth. On the other hand, the grey water policy, which deals with recycling storm water and using this for landscape watering on campus, will take a lot more coordination and planning. The required logistical overhaul to implement the grey water system would cost $500,000. If this change comes to fruition the University would save an estimated $100,000 each year afterwards. It's a good idea but will take a lot of effort.
Create an objective noise ordinance
Lobby the commission for a more objective city ordinance
Challenge the nuisance house ordinance that allows for the utilities to be shut off
for those found in violation
Currently students living off campus can be punished for anything considered "excessive, unreasonable or unusually loud noise." Delta Force would like to more narrowly define acceptable decibel levels, designated quiet hours and other realistic regulations. This is the most realistic and feasible platform by means of lobbying the city commission.
Reform Sexual Assault Policy
Clarify current rules regarding specific consequences for certain types of sexual assault so that each case is treated justly and the safety of all attending the University is ensured
This platform superficially addresses a non-issue with little regard for the University's discretion in these matters. Even how Delta Force presents this topic - as if it were a rampant problem here that has left many victims further traumatized - serves to promote excessive fear and concern. Yes, sexual harassment and sexual assault are serious issues that need to be dealt with in a serious and forthright manner but the University does not have an extensive history of not living up to this standard. Furthermore, anytime the ability the decide punishment is limited, the legitimacy of the process is detracted.
Institute Electronic Privacy
Establishing a definite policy of how Web sites, such as Facebook and MySpace, can be used in regards to student discipline and University employment.
We appreciate Delta Force's desire for the University to be accountable for the unethical practice of punishing students based on what they post online. Nonetheless, students are ultimately the ones to make the decision on what kind of information they present about themselves in the public forum of the Internet. This initiative seems to blow this problem out of proportion but has a noble intent.
Create Student Friendly Libraries
Increase amount of quiet study areas
▼ Create rest and relaxation rooms where students can sleep
Increasing the amount of study areas is fine but creating sleeping rooms is less practical and not well planned. Delta Force does not know where these rooms would be. Then there also is the concern of the safety of the rooms. Their solution was to have students show student ids to enter. This is cumbersome and does not guard against theft or prevent students from partaking in activities other than sleeping.
Increase Student Created Media and Publications
Want more student-created media projects including zines, film and music
▼ More opportunities and resources to get academic works published
This is a good idea to promote greater student expression. Right now a group must be established for about one and a half semesters before they would receive funding. In addition, the student media board does not allow for a publication to be mainly Webbased, which is the direction publications publication are going. In short, student media regulations does need overhauling.
Divest from Sudan
Work to see that KU takes an active stance against genocide and withdraws all investments from companies that do business with the Sudanese government
The term "high-falutin' rhetoric" comes to mind when discussing this issue. What companies would be included and how do we define what business deals with Sudan? What would the University do when the conflict is over? How does this affect students directly? This issue is an excellent social issue but not appropriate for a platform issue.
Support GTAs during contract negotiations
Supporting the abolishment of the ten semester limit for GTAs
$ \nabla $ Help them lobby for better healthcare plans
This is a good platform that reaches out to graduate students, a demographic often neglected. They have long pioneered for these

He advocated further research and expansion of alternative energy sources so that they could be readily available for the American people. He stressed the importance of ethanol fuel as well as solar energy, wind power and gasified coal as the country's future energy providers.
With nearly half of the United State's oil coming from the Middle East, "energy independence becomes a national security issue," he said.
Daschle himself bought a vehicle that ran on 85 percent ethanol fuel, but soon realized that there were no pumps to fill up his gas tank. Even in California, he said four ethanol pumps
exist and three were for government use only. He stressed that progress could not be made by individuals until the government stepped up and provided the means.
Daschle called to the youth to work toward a better future where America could lead the world by aiding it and setting a good example rather than the example set by military power. He pointed out that at the age of 26, Martin Luther King, Jr. organized the Montgomery Bus Boycott, at the age of 32, Thomas Jefferson drafted the Declaration of Independence, an at 21, Bill Gates started Microsoft.

Debate
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
Boots said that the coalition visited with more than 100 student organizations when forming and creating platforms. He said that if elected he planned to help the student body become better informed about Student Senate, which in turn could make students more interested.
"We are a new coalition and we are changing with the tides of the University," Boots said. "As we continue to develop as a coalition we need to change."
Boots said that all of his coalition's ideas and platforms would directly affect students. He said that Ignite wanted as much student feedback as possible so that the issues students were interested in would be the ones addressed.
$100 Fee Cut
Chaput
The $100 Fee Cut coalition opened by announcing that the group wanted to be elected to Senate even though at the informal debate Wednesday presidential candidate Dennis Chanay told audience members not to vote for him.
After that debate Chanay and vice presidential candidate Johnathan Wilson received an e-mail from the elections commissioner asking that only candidates seeking election show up to Monday's debate.
Chanay and Wilson said they would run on the platforms of creating stricter spending regulations for Senate and reforming the election process to end censorship.
In the closing statements the coalition withdrew itself as a coalition actively seeking office because the real issue it wanted
students to focus on was the referendum to cut $46 a semester from required campus fees.
Chanay said that it was time for Senate to make a change. He said that until now that had not happened and that the referendum he supported was the place to start.
"Programs continue to pile up while Senate has become a crutch for some organizations," he said.
Chanay said it was time to give students knowledge to make informed votes rather than handing them buttons, T-shirts and flvers.
Election polls will be open today and Wednesday. Students can vote either online at electionku.edu or at the physical polling sites at Mrs.E's and Wescoe Beach.

Dedicated golfer shines
Enthusiasm drives junior to succeed
GOLF
BY ASHER FUSCO
afusco@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
When asked to list the positives he saw from his team during an all-around poor showing in Cary, N.C., last week, Ross Randall couldn't find many. But the Kansas coach didn't hesitate to mention one incredible sight he bore witness to.
"The last hole is a 415-yard dogleg to the right over a big, huge lake, and Gary Woodland knocked his tee shot on the green." Randall said.
After pausing for emphasis, Randall added,
"On the fly."
Judging by the disbelief and near giddiness Randall spoke with, it is not every day that a golfer like Woodland comes along.
Randall has guided a strong Kansas men's golf program for nearly three decades and has coached more than a few great golfers, such as PGA golfer Matt Gogel. Randall said he was impressed by Woodland's potential.
"We've had some good players, but Gary has the strongest potential," Randall said.
Woodland, a junior from Topeka, brings a competitive fire to the course every time he steps onto the green. His desire to win was crafted not only through practice at the driving range, but also from his experience on the basketball court.
After graduating from Shawnee Heights High School, where he played golf and basketball for four years, Woodland received a scholarship from Washburn University to play basketball. Soon after, Woodland left the hardwood in favor of his 3-wood, and has since firmly planted himself among the best in the history of Kansas men's golf.
Woodland won the Cleveland State Invitational in September, firing rounds of 67, 66 and 69 to win the tournament. He also won the 95th Kansas Amateur Match Play Championship in July.
"I know as long as I get myself in contention, I'm always 100 percent positive I can come through and win," Woodland said.
Woodland's success can also be attributed to an extraordinary work ethic and to the countless hours spent honing his game. Woodland said he traveled to Dallas several times each month to visit a swing specialist. He said he also met with a sports psychologist on a regular basis.
Many days, Woodland wakes up for a 6 a.m. work-out, attends classes all morning, and hits the course for an afternoon of drives, putts and approach shots.
The intense devotion and ambition Woodland dedicates to his craft goes far above and beyond the practice habits of most student athletes.
When asked about his future in golf, Woodland showed his optimism.
"I have high goals and high expectations, and I really think the sky is the limit." Woodland said.
Randall said Woodland had the talent and drive to take his career in golf as far as he wanted.
"He needs to work on a couple more things, but he's very, very talented, and people around the country know who he is." Randall said.

Kansas looks to end tourney dry spell
BY ALISSA BAUER
abauer@kansan.com
KANKSAN STAFF WRITER
The day-to-day goals of the team seem to take precedence over the big picture of making the tournament, though.
Kansas is on a mission to do what it hasn't done in 11 years — make it to the NCAA tournament.
This will be the case for tonight and Wednesday night's match-up against North Dakota State (2-24). First pitch is set for 6 tonight at Hogglund Ballpark.
Despite the Jayhawks dismal record, Kansas coach Ritch Price said he knew the importance of each game and how instrumental this series would be for the little picture and the big picture.
Kansas (23-13, 6-6) is doing what needs to be done, winning its past two Big 12 Conference series against Missouri and Texas Tech, while also jumping to 500 in conference play. That 6-6 conference start is the best the Jayhawks have put together since their 7-5 start in 1997.
"Right now we're in the NCAA tournament," Price said. "We have to continue to win weekday games to make it as well."
The North Dakota State series will be the last of a five-game homestand for Kansas, which has played seven of its past eight games at home.
The Bison cannot say the same. Their trip to Lawrence will mark the end of a 28-game road trip. They have not played a single game at home this season.
Although only a member of the Division I Independent league, North Dakota State coach Mitch McLeod has not set up an easy road for his team. Wichita State, Kansas State, Kentucky and Northern Iowa, among others, have all swept North Dakota State this season.
Regardless of the team, Kansas ballplayers said they viewed the opposing players all the same. "We've got to come to the ballpark everyday with the same mentality," sophomore outfielder John Allman said.

Senior pitcher Don Czyz closes out the Jayhawks 3-2 victory against Missouri March 3. Czyz and the Jayhawks are tied with the Missouri Tigers for fifth in the Big 12.
BY SHAWN SHROYER

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
Editor's note: Big 12 baseball reporter Shawn Shroyer writes a story every Tuesday about the previous week's Big 12 baseball action.
With its series victory against Texas Tech last weekend, Kansas got back to .500 in the Big 12 at 6-6. Kansas is in a tie with Missouri for the fifth spot in the conference, but holds the tiebreaker over the Tigers. The Jayhawks went 2-2 for the week and dropped out of the Baseball America poll.
Sophomore outfielder John Allman dominated Texas Tech pitching, going 5-for-10 with five RBL.
Senior closer Don Czyz had the biggest series of any Jayhawk. Czyz broke the Big 12 career appearance record and the Kansas single-season saves record. Czyz and the rest of the Kansas bullpen allowed only two runs on 11 hits and one walk in 11 innings. The bullpen struck out 12 Texas Tech batters.
Kansas will stay busy this week with a pair of midweek games against North Dakota State at Holglund Ballpark. Then Kansas will travel to Stillwater, Okla., to face Oklahoma State for a three-game set. If the Jayhawks take the series, it will be their third straight Big 12 series victory — a feat Kansas has never accomplished in the Big 12.

Coming off its most successful season and first bowl victory since 1995, the Kansas football program is only looking up these days. But questions still remain, and KU fans will catch glimpses of their answers at 7 Friday night.
▼ 'HORN BORN, 'HAWK BRED
Gear up for scrimmage
The main question everyone is trying to figure out: Who will start at quarterback next season? Redshirt freshman Kerry Meier has been the name most often mentioned for the job, but almost every KU fan has yet to see him play a single snap.
The annual spring football scrimmage is only three days away, and this year's scrimmage could prove to have more fan interest than any other in Kansas football history. And why not?
Incoming freshman Todd Reesing will challenge for the starting spot as well. Reesing would still be in high school, but he graduated early to come to Kansas this semester and
TRAVIS ROBINETT

Meier, listed at 6 feet 3 inches, has a four-inch advantage over Reesing, but Reesing is known for playing far above his stature. Not everything will be revealed, but we'll at least get to see a small amount of what both are capable of, and hopefully walk away knowing that the offense is in good hands with either one taking the snaps.
practice with the team.
Another question mark will be on the KU defense, the most important aspect of the 2005 campaign. Seven starters graduated, including all three starting linebackers, who were the backbone of the defense. In addition to those seven, backup sack man Brandon Perkins
KU fans now have to put their faith into Kansas coach Mark Mangino's recruiting. The new defense is younger and will probably make a lot more mistakes than the near-perfect play of last year's squad, but it might be more talented. Friday's scrimmage should show us something, good or bad, about the KU defense.
graduated, former cornerback Charles Gordon decided to enter his name into the NFL draft and would be senior Rodney Harris will probably never play football again because of a back injury he suffered earlier this semester. That leaves sophomore Aqib Talib as the only returning starter
Even though the game might just be a tease for what's to come, it's still a good reason to start getting excited for the next season of KU football.

St. Louis finds first win in new Busch Stadium
BY R.B. FALLSTROM THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ST. LOUIS -- Apparently, the new Busch Stadium is both a hitter's and pitcher's park. At least for Mark Mulder it is.
The Cardinals' left-hander threw eight strong innings and hit his first career home run to help the St. Louis beat the Milwaukee Brewers 6-4 Monday in the first major league game at the $365 million ballpark.
Scott Rolen's two-run double in the fourth off Tomo Ohka (0-1) gave the Cardinals the lead for good and Albert Pujols his fourth homer, a drive to the left-center power alley estimated at 445 feet.
Bill Hall's two-run homer in the second was the only damage off Mulder (1-0). Hall was 3-for-4 with a pair of doubles for Milwaukee, which has lost two straight after a 5-0 start that put the Brewers in first place in the NL Central.
The day began on a festive note, with Pujols and Chris Carpenter, the NL MVP and Cy Young Award winners, throwing out dual ceremonial first pitches to retired Cardinals greats Willie McGee and Bob Gibson. It stayed festive most of the day for a sellout crowd of 41,936.
Mulder allowed seven hits in eight innings, struck out five and walked one. He also was 2-for-3 with a double on a hop off the center field wall and a walk — coming in he had a .119 career average in 84 at-bats with four RBI.
BASKETBALL
His home run, a two-drive off Jose Capellan in the seventh, put the Cardinals ahead 6-2.
Mulder also started the final home opener at the old Busch Stadium last year in addition to pitching the final game at the 40-year-old park last fall in a Game 6 NLCS loss to the Houston Astros.
After Geoff Jenkins led off
with a bloop single in the ninth, Braden Looper came in and got Carlos Lee to ground into a double play. Hall then doubled and scored on a single by Rickie Weeks.
St. Louis then brought in Jason Isringhausen, who allowed Michael Barrett's go-ahead grand slam in an 8-4 loss to the Cubs at Wrigley Field on Sunday night. Isringhausen allowed Prince Fielder's RBI
Ohka gave up four runs, six hits and four walks in four innings.
single and walked pineh-hitter Corey Koskie before retiring Gabe Gross, another pinch hitter, on a ground out for his third save.
After the Cardinals left the bases loaded in the first and stranded two in the second, Pujols homered leading off the third and Yadier Molina hit a sacrifice fly later in the inning. Rolen's go-ahead homer gave him a team-high nine RBI — he had a career-low 28 last year, when a shoulder injury limited him to 56 games. ___
Notes - Lee singled in the second, the 14th time he reached base in 26 plate appearances. But he was hitless the rest of the way, finishing 1-for-4 with a pair of double-plays.

NATION Bomb squad called in for unattended bag
AUGUSTA, Ga. — Part of an airport terminal was evacuated for about two hours Monday and a bomb squad was called in after an unattended bag was spotted as fans and players from the Masters Golf Tournament headed out of town.
The baggage area inside the terminal at Augusta Regional Airport was cordoned off and passengers were evacuated from the area after an airport employee identified a suspicious bag on the sidewalk outside about 8 a.m., said Christopher White, a spokesman for the Transportation Security Administration.
The bag was considered suspicious because it was unattended, though authorities didn't immediately know what it contained, White said. No further details were released.
The bag was removed and normal airport operations resumed about 10:20 a.m., White said.
Some commercial flights were delayed for more than two hours because passengers were delayed in boarding; airport spokeswoman Diane Johnston did not know how many.

And now your 2006-07 Starting Lineup
Editor's note: Ryan Colaianni, men's basketball writer, predicts the starting five players for next season's team. The listed year in school is for next season. Projected reserves are also listed. Player predictions are listed in order of pictures to the side.
JULIAN WRIGHT, sophomore forward, eighty-three.
Chicago Heights, Ill.
Averaged 8.5 points per game.
Averaged 4.6 rebounds per game.
Totaled 60 assists.
Wright was the big man that performed on the floor last season. Whether he was throwing down highlight-reel dunks or finding an open teammate near the basket. Wright was the most
Mike hearl the basket, Wright was the most exciting player on the floor. He will need to use the off-season to bulk up so that he will be better prepared to face stronger post players in the Big 12.
MARIO CHALMERS,
Was second on the team in assists with 127 and led the team in steals with 89.
Named to the all-defensive team as a freshman. Averaged 11.5 points per game, good for second most on the team.
Chalmers was rattled early in the season, turning the ball over often. He moved to the shooting guard position, which helped Chalmers ease his turnover woes. Chalmers shouldered a larger portion of the offensive load once Big 12 Conference play began. He was the Big 12 Tournament's most outstanding player.
BRANDON RUSH.
sophomore guard, Kansas City, Mo.
Leader in points per game with 13.5.
Started all 33 games
- Shot 47.2 percent from three-point range
Led the team in rebounds per game.
After the Bradley loss, Rush said he would return to Lawrence for his sophomore season. He will be expected to lead the team in scoring again. Rush struggled to score as the season progressed. As a result, his scoring average dropped from above 15 points per game to 13.5.
RUSSELL ROBINSON,
Junior guard
New York, N.Y.
Dished out a team-high 152 assists last season.
Moved to the point guard position from the shooting guard position halfway through the season.
Averaged 9.3 points per game.
Robinson was the player that drove the Jayhawks last season. He did it with his stellar defensive ability, being named to the all-defensive team, and played unselfishly, leading the team in assists. Robinson will likely be challenged by incoming freshman Sherron Collins for the point guard position.
Me
SASHA KAUN junior center. Melbourne, Fla.
Started 29 of the team's 33 games.
Averaged 9.3 points per game.
Started 29 of the team's 33 games.
■ Averaged 8.2 points per game.
■ Averaged 5.3 rebounds per game.
**Kaun saw his offensive production improve last season.** He split time with fellow center CJ Giles. Kaun will need another strong off-season of workouts to continue to improve his game. Kaun and Giles had problems with foul trouble throughout the season.
Projected reserves:
Sherron Collins, freshman guard, Chicago Brady Morningstar, freshman guard, Lawrence Jeremy Case, junior guard, Oklahoma City CJ Giles, junior center, Seattle Darnell Jackson, junior forward, Oklahoma City Rodrick Stewart, junior guard, Seattle Matt Kleinmann, sophomore center, Overland Park
KAN

Fans began questioning coaches and players and message boards were filled with doomsday talk. They wondered if this would be the year that Kansas would fail to make the NCAA tournament for the first time since 1989.
Kansas coach Bill Self said Kansas would be a more experienced team at the end of January, and a different team than it uses in December.

They wanted answers quickly.

Self said he was not concerned as much with the team's confidence as with that of the fans. "Because that's when you start to sense how players react and everything is determined on how other people are perceiving them," Self said, after his team's two-game losing skid. "We perceive ourselves as a good team."
Kansas dropped that game against Texas by 25 points, but found itself back in first place four days later after Texas lost to Texas A&M.
Those answers came in the form of a victory against Kentucky, a 10-game winning streak and a share of first place for the Big 12 Conference regular season title.
"From the get-go I thought we were going to be real good," freshman guard Brandon Rush said, in the midst of the 10-game winning streak. "Everything would start to come along and it has, so we are proving people wrong. They said we were going to get killed in Big 12 play."
Freshman guard Mario Chalmers drives past Bradley's defense during the first round of the NCAA Tournament on March 17.
"I think we are better now, we just had a couple disappointing losses early, but they have certainly grown up and gotten tougher as time has passed," Self said before the Feb. 25 road match-up with Texas. "We've shot the ball better because we are taking better shots, and we are certainly a confident team in the attack mode a lot more than we were back in November and December."
Kansas earned its 49th conference title to add to Lawrence's rich basketball history.
"We are not taking it as a down game, we are just taking it as a learning experience."
CJ Giles Sophomore center
said after the Texas loss.
"We are not taking it as a down game, we are just taking it as another learning experience for us to build on to get to that next level."
Kansas responded well, winning nine straight games after Downs transferred. The Feb. 5 game against Oklahoma might have been the most important victory of the regular season.
The Jayhawks were down 16 points with less than 10 minutes to play against the Sooners. Kansas undertook a furious rally to win by one point in Allen Field-
house. A last-minute three-point attempt by Oklahoma guard Michael Neal bounced off the rim. It would have won the game.
Even though it was a narrow victory,it was vital — Kansas had lost five close games earlier in the season.
"It's a real big win, to finally get a close one, to prove some people wrong that we can get a win in a close game," Rush said.
Kansas must now look to the future. Following the NCAA tournament loss, Rush said that he planned to return for his sophomore season.
If he does, Kansas would return its top seven scorers and also bring in McDonald's AllAmerican guard Sherron Collins. Early indications are that Kansas will be a Top 5 team when the preseason polls are released in November.

From hot to cold to WNIT
BY MICHAEL PHILLIPS
mphillips@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Women's basketball coach Bonnie Henrickson's second season will mostly be remembered for the Jayhawks' first postseason appearance in six years.
5
The Jayhawks defeated Northern Iowa in the WNIT before falling to Mississippi. Both games were at Allen Fieldhouse. The WNIT provided a way for the Kansas senior class to leave on a positive note, after starting the year strong and faltering in conference play.
The Jayhawks charged out to a 12-0 start. Most of those victories against smaller schools, and all of them came in Allen Fieldhouse. The games provided early-season momentum and helped Kansas gain national attention.
The final victory of the 12 was against then-No. 23 Texas in Allen Fieldhouse. It was the Jayhawks first conference game, as well as their first game against a ranked team, but they dispatched Texas with relative ease, winning the game 70-61 in front of a season-high crowd of 5,634.
Also during the winning streak Kansas picked up a victory against Wisconsin, the Jayhawks first of the season against a team from a major conference.
Senior forward Crystal Kemp called the game the best of the season because of the way the game was won. Kansas was down 17 before coming back and winning the game in double-overtime. As the conference season started, the Jayhawks began to slump, which was accentuated by their inability to win on the road. It took until Feb. 18 for the team to pick up a victory on the road, a 57-56 victory against Iowa State in Ames, Iowa. The Jayhawks were also unable to shake off what became a 10-game losing streak to the Kansas State Wildcats, falling short in all three opportunities, including a neutral-court game to open the Big 12 Tournament.
Despite the late-season setbacks, the Jayhawks were still able to finish with a 16-12 record, good enough to be selected for the WNIT.
After winning in the preliminary round and losing in the first round, the Jajahaws finished at 17-13, picking up the most victories by a Kansas women's basketball team in this decade.

Defense uses past against alleged rape victim
BY ALLEN G. BREED THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DURHAM, N.C. — By releasing embarrassing details about the stripper who claims she was raped at a party held by Duke University's lacrosse team, the players' attorneys are employing the same strategy used successfully to defend NBA star Kobe Bryant against rape charges: publicly attack the accuser's credibility.
"This is what the defense does, is try to smear the victim in the public and make it impossible to get a jury," said Eagle County, Colo., District Attorney Mark Hurlbert, who charged Bryant.
No one has been charged in the Duke case. The heavily anticipated results of DNA tests on the players were completed Monday. Prosecutors declined to discuss the results, which were being sent to defense attorneys.
While awaiting those results defense attorneys have tried to portray the accuser as a liar whose story doesn't add up.
Over the weekend, they told reporters that photos taken at the party showed that the woman was injured even before she arrived and impaired. And while answering questions about their clients' legal troubles — about a third of the current team has been charged in recent years with public urination, underage possession of alcohol and disorderly conduct — they have suggested that the woman's own criminal past undermines her credibility.
She pleaded guilty to misdemeanor counts of larceny, speeding to elude arrest, assault on a government official and driving while impaired, and spent some weekends in jail.
They pointed to a June 2002 incident in which the alleged victim stole the taxi of a man she was giving a lap dance at a Durham strip club. Court records say she led a sheriff's deputy on a winding chase at up to 70 mph, and tried to run him down.
The players' attorneys have also attacked the woman's statement to police that she and another dancer left the party in fear after the crowd became "excited and aggressive," returning only after one player apologized.
Wendy Murphy, a former Massachusetts prosecutor and adjunct professor at Boston's New England School of Law who teaches a seminar on sexual violence, said releasing details of the photos was a sign that lawyers were worried the DNA testing would produce a match with some of the players.
WATERFRONT CAFE
"If the DNA isn't going to match, they wouldn't need to do this," she said.

Defense uses past against alleged rape victim
BY ALLEN G. BREED THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DURHAM, N.C. — By releasing embarrassing details about the stripper who claims she was raped at a party held by Duke University's lacrosse team, the players' attorneys are employing the same strategy used successfully to defend NBA star Kobe Bryant against rape charges: publicly attack the accuser's credibility.
"This is what the defense does, is try to smear the victim in the public and make it impossible to get a jury," said Eagle County, Colo., District Attorney Mark Hurlbert, who charged Brant.
No one has been charged in the Duke case. The heavily anticipated results of DNA tests on the players were completed Monday. Prosecutors declined to discuss the results, which were being sent to defense attorneys.
While awaiting those results defense attorneys have tried to portray the accuser as a liar whose story doesn't add up.
Over the weekend, they told reporters that photos taken at the party showed that the woman was injured even before she arrived and impaired. And while answering questions about their clients' legal troubles — about a third of the current team has been charged in recent years with public urination, underage possession of alcohol and disorderly conduct — they have suggested that the woman's own criminal past undermines her credibility.
They pointed to a June 2002 incident in which the alleged victim stole the taxi of a man she was giving a lap dance at a Durham strip club. Court records say she led a sheriff's deputy on a winding chase up to 70 mph, and tried to run him down.
She pleaded guilty to misdemeanor counts of larceny, speeding to elude arrest, assault on a government official and driving while impaired, and spent some weekends in jail.
The players' attorneys have also attacked the woman's statement to police that she and another dancer left the party in fear after the crowd became "excited and aggressive," returning only after one player anologized.
Wendy Murphy, a former Massachusetts prosecutor and adjunct professor at Boston's New England School of Law who teaches a seminar on sexual violence, said releasing details of the photos was a sign that lawyers were worried the DNA testing would produce a match with some of the players.
"If the DNA isn't going to match, they wouldn't need to do this," she said.

▼ HOROSCOPES
**ARIES (March 21-April 19) *******
This morning, upgrer and power games surround the best-intentioned Rams. There is nothing you can do right now but pull back and not play the game. You could be wondering what you need to do in order to see a clear path.
Tonight Dept. of athletics
The Stars Show the Kind of Day You'll Have:
5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-ao; 1-Difficult
Red Lapin Tavern
ABIES (March 04, 2015)
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) *****
Your imagination and a new-born frivolous attitude stir up an associate's ira. Proceed with care. What might be wise is to buckle down and get into some serious work. Think through a problem later in the day.
Tonight Realign your priorities.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ★★★★
GEMINI (May 21 - June 20) ★★★
You hit flash no matter which way you turn or what you say this morning. The good news: If you tread with care this afternoon, you can reverse any a.m. hashes. To your delight, others suddenly become easier! Tonight. Act as if there is no tomorrow.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) ★★★
CANCER (Jams 21-July 22) ★★★
Use care when approaching others, as events could certainly take a wayward action or motion. You might be cleaning up the mess that develops for several days.
Try to prevent a problem before it comes to fruition.
Tonight: Cur up at your favorite place → home
CANCER (Jung 21-July 22) ★★★
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★★★
LEU (July 25-Aug. 22) ★★☆☆
Troubles surround an emotional or financial issue. You're worried for a long time and/or explaining yourself.
Communication helps ferret out problems this afternoon. Yes, you are very serious.
Tonight. Easy does it.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) *****
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) ★★★★
Good intentions pave the way to hell, as you discover. For all the tea in China, you cannot satisfy a close associate. Carefully consider your options that surround funds and security. Put on your serious garb. Tonight: Take a hard look at your budget.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ★★★
if ever you was to get up late, it easily could be today. The good news is, as trying your morning could be, your afternoon could be just as easy or successful. Someone you care about is oh so serious. Tonight: You wish.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★★
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★★
Don't get any money tied up in a job.
Don't even buy a lottery ticket with your
friends. If there ever was a time to pull back
and be serious, it is now. Assume a low
profile, and you will be a much happier.
Tonight. Zero in on your needs.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ***
You could make a responsibility or a must appearance a lot more difficult than it needs to be. Know when to let others run the show. Know when you cannot win for losing. Right now, a lot is going on. Pull back. Tonight: Follow a friend's suggestion.
Red Lyon Tavern
Red Lyon
Tavern
944 Mass.832-8228
CAPICRICOR (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) **
If you try to get a grasp on what is going on, you might run away. Simply stand back and know that this too will pass — in fact, by late afternoon. A partner could be unusually testy and difficult. Take the lead.
Tonight: A force to be dealt with.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★★
You might not be a movie to compensate for someone's outrageousness, so don't worry about it. If you take an overview and recharge your sense of humor, you'll smile.
Others need someone who is relaxed. Why not you?
Tonight Rent a movie
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★★
PISCES (Fab. 19-March 20) ★★★
pull back, and don't play into the present set of events. You might be uncomfortable with this style or decision, but ultimately it is a lot better. See what is going on behind the scenes. You cannot always be in control.
Tonight: Let someone else run the show.

Start of season means more home runs
BY JANIE MCCAULEY
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — Tim Hudson laughed off his two rough outings to start the season. Atlanta's ace knows he's far from the only one with an extra-high ERA after the first week.
"I think it's just stumbling out of the box from a pitching standpoint," Hudson said after watching his ERA balloon to 12.38 with a weekend loss to the San Francisco Giants. "We just have to get some confidence back. It just executing, that's about it."
Hitters have had little trouble producing so far. The .270 major league batting average in the first week was the highest in an opening week since the expansion era began in 1961, the Elias Sports Bureau said Monday.
Home runs in the first week were up 10.6 percent from last year and scoring increased 5.3 percent.
Teams hit 216 home runs last week and the average of 2.40 per game was the highest in the opening week since 2001's 2.49. Runs per game (10.51) reached a level that hadn't been seen since 2000 (10.68).
"It is unusual." Giants manager Felipe Alou said. "Of course you see no hitters early and shutouts. I don't know, maybe something is going on.
Baseball toughened drug testing last year, suspending first offenders for 10 days. Home runs dropped 8 percent to their lowest per-game average since 1997, and some thought there was a link. This year, first offenders will be suspended for 50 games.
Barry Zito was on the losing end of Oakland's 15-2 rout by the New York Yankees on opening day in which the left-hander lasted only one 1-3 innings — the shortest outing of his career, Zito, tagged for seven runs, was done after 59 pitches, the first time he failed to last two innings.
The 15 runs were the most allowed by the Athletics on opening day, surpassing the 14 the Philadelphia As gave up in a 14-8 loss to the Washington Senators on April 17, 1945.
"Zito goes 1 1-3 and gives up seven earnies and four walks — that's Barry Zito." Braves manager Bobby Cox said.
Then, on Saturday, Zito bounced back to combine on a one-hitter in a 3-0 win at Seattle.

PRATT
Pitchers gave up 634 walks compared to 573 last year, according to Elias. Braves leadoff hitter Marcus Giles drew 11 free passes and Barry Bonds had seven — two of those intentional.
"You know, in spring training, you go two, three, four, five innings and you almost forget what it's like to go seven, eight innings." Oakland No. 3 starter Dan Haren said. "Some pitchers in April, their arms feel great. They are fresh coming out of spring training. Me, I feel like my command gets a lot better after April."
San Francisco Giants' Moises Alou, left, is greeted by teammate Barry Bonds, right, after hitting a home run off Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Tim Hudson during the first inning of their baseball game in San Francisco on Saturday. Looking on is Braves catcher Todd Pratt. Teams hit 216 home runs last week, a rise from 191 in the opening week last year.
The Giants went 4-2 in the first week without an RBI or home run from Bonds, taking three of four from Atlanta by outscoring the Braves 31-29.
Eric Risberg/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
"We've got a winning record, so it doesn't matter," said Bonds, who is 2-for-12 and was looking forward to the Giants' off day Monday.

NCAA BASKETBALL
Decision looming for new recruit
BY DOUG TUCKER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Two days before he planned to announce his choice for college, Florida prep star Jason Bennett was still struggling to make a decision, his coach said Monday.
Bennett is ranked among the top 25 prospects by Rivals.com and spent two days at Kansas State last week with Bob Huggins, the longtime Cincinnati coach who was named head coach last month by the Wildcats.
The 7-foot-3 Bennett said earlier that he had narrowed his decision to Auburn or Kansas State. But Rex Morgan, Bennett's coach at Arlington Country Day High School in Jacksonville, Fla., disputed reports that Kansas State had emerged as the winner.
"There has been too much speculation," Morgan told The Associated Press on Monday, "Someone told me somebody was being quoted as saying that he's decided on Kansas State. But he hasn't officially committed anywhere."
As an undergraduate, Bennett committed to Cincinnati when Huggins was still the Bearcats coach. Huggins remained in contact this year while he was out of coaching and not subject to NCAA restrictions on when college coaches can contact recruits.
Bennett has said he would make his decision known at a news conference at noon Wednesday at his high school.
Duane and Darlene Bennett accompanied their son on his visit to get to know Kansas State.
"He and his parents have not made a decision. They hope to do so tomorrow (Tuesday) night," Morgan said.
Bennett averaged 12.5 points, 13.5 rebounds and eight blocks last season for Arlington's 2A state championship team. He would give the Wildcats a big, intimidating presence inside, which they have lacked for many years.
Coaches are not allowed to speak puberty about recruits this close to the signing period. But several have noted that Bennett could immediately become one of the best defensive centers in the Big 12.
"In my opinion, he's the best defensive player in high school this year," Morgan said.

Left fielder Jared Sullivan led the Bison offense last Sunday, going 3-for-4 with a pair of RBI. On the season, Sullivan has remained consistent, hitting .305. His seven doubles lead the team.
Kansas will bring a potent left fielder of its own in sophomore outfielder John Allman. The St. Louis native is hitting .341 and is tied for the team lead with nine doubles. Last weekend against Texas Tech, Allman went 5-for-10 and drove in five runs.
Tonight might be a chance for young KU players to gain playing time on the field, though
"We'll get a chance to get our bats going, a chance for my younger guys to get some AB's," Price said.
Junior right-hander Brendan McNamara (0-1, 4.08) will take the hill this evening. Freshman lefty Nick Czyz (0-1, 9.20) will start the second game of the two-game set, starting Wednesday at 3 p.m.
As a team, Kansas is hitting just .286 to North Dakota State's .230, but the Jayhawks have knocked out 53 home runs to the Bison one's.
"I think the big thing for us is we get to play some midweek games," Price said. "What that really does is prepare your team to hit on the weekend. We haven't played very many of those yet."

Mumps strikes 48 in Kansas
BY FRED A. DAVIS III
fdavis@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Dr. Howard Rodenberg, Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) Division of Health director, said that 48 cases of mumps had been reported in seven Kansas counties.
TOPEKA — Kansas health officials seemed confident Tuesday afternoon explaining the recent mumps outbreak across the state at a press conference in Topeka.
Douglas county accounted for 37 of those cases. Twenty-nine of those are University of Kansas students. The University of Kansas is the only university in the state that has reported a mumps case.
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 12. 2006
WWW.KANSAN.COM
Gail Hansen, KDHE state epidemiologist, said the majority of those afflicted fell between the ages of 20 and 50; and a smaller number were those younger than 10 or older than 30.
Rodenberg said that a reason for the outbreak was hard to gauge. He said that the state was looking at the cases for any recurring theme or pattern that may help explain the situation.
Waning immunity to the virus and non-responders to the vaccine were suggested, but there is no proof to establish a relation.
Rodenberg also noted it was very unlikely that a new mumps strain was responsible for the outbreak.
One idea Rodenberg mentioned was that college students tend to live together, congregate and share items ranging from clothes to drinking glasses, making it easier for the disease to travel quickly from one affected person to another. He said it was just one possibility he and his colleagues were looking at.
Despite the unusually high number of cases reported this year already — the state had 17 confirmed cases in the last 10 years — Rodenberg said the fact that these reports were even making news was a testament to how far the prevention of curable illnesses had come.

STUDENT HOUSING
Thefts lower so far in '06
BY RACHEL PARKER
rparker@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
After a fall semester with many residence hall thefts, the number of robberies in University of Kansas residence halls has decreased significantly this spring.
So far this semester only eight cases of theft or burglary at residence halls have been reported to the KU Public Safety Office. There were 49 cases last semester, with more than $15,000 in student losses. This semester's total loss is approximately $5,000. That figure includes only thefts in or outside the residence halls and does not include any parking lot theft incidents.
A rash of bike thefts invaded the University last semester with the majority of these cases occurring at bike racks outside residence halls. Oliver and McCollum Halls were especially hard-hit.
Capt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office said that the decrease in theft was due mostly to new deterrents, like the recently installed security cameras in residence hall parking lots and increased surveillance at bike racks.
Bailey said the KU Public Safety Office gave several different crime alerts to let students know when the thefts occurred.
"We asked students to be extra, extra careful," he said.
Bailey said the KU Public Safety Office
had suggested many things students could do to protect themselves from being victims of theft. He said students should always lock their doors and should not leave their property in plain site. He also suggested that students log serial numbers on expensive property they owned.
Joey Tierney-Kanning, Olathe freshman and McCollum Hall resident, said his bike was stolen in November from the bike racks outside of McCollum. He didn't report the incident because he didn't think it would help him get his bike back.
Tierney-Kanning said now he tried not to leave any of his personal belongings out. Instead of getting a new bike, he's considering buying something like roller blades that he
can carry around in his backpack.
Jennifer Wamelink, assistant director for residence life, said students in residence halls had floor meetings and other informal interactions regarding personal safety.
In addition, all students and their parents hear prevention tips at orientation, Wamelin link said. The officers from the KU Public Safety Office also speak with students at Greek houses and residence hall floor meetings upon request, Bailey said.
Wamelink said one of the best sources for general safety tips was the Safe & Secure poster, which was placed in every student's room.

Ever since Sara Garlick found her father's Playboy comic book when she was a little girl, posing in Playboy has been an ambition in her life.
"Playboy has always stayed classy," she said.
The Sanford, Maine, senior attended the casting call Monday for the October 2006 "Girls of the Big 12" issue. She said her parents knew the magazine and would support any decision she made.
Playboy is spending time with KU students this week, holding auditions Monday, Tuesday and possibly today and individual photo shoots today through Saturday for the women chosen.

David Rams, Playboy photographer, said the crew, consisting of just three people, had been scoping out local hot spots to spread the word. The crew is one of three traveling to different Big 12 schools.
Students who wanted to participate were asked to make appointments for audition times via telephone or the Playboy Web site.
Rams said they were looking for women who had personality and energy that would come out in the photo, along with looks.

and Amy Linnen, Long Island, N.Y., senior, came to the casting call with high hopes to be featured in the magazine. Both modeled for the Women of KU 2006 Swimsuit Calendar and said modeling in Playboy was something they had always wanted to do.
"I was nervous, my stomach was turning, so I made Amy go first," Berry said.
Linnen, a member of the KU track team, said she was proud of being part of the University—and of her body—and wanted to represent both.
"My body is a temple, and I work so hard to make it what it is," she said.
The women chosen for the issue will go through individual photo shoots in Lawrence at a privately-owned store or ranch meant to show the character of the school and the women.

CRIME
Rape reported, but no charges to be pressed
BY MIKE MOSTAFFA
mmostaffa@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
A 19-year-old KU student reported that she was raped about 3 a.m. Sunday in a Jayhawker Towers apartment. This is the first rape case reported on campus since 2004.
Schuyler Bailey, KU Public Safety Office captain, said the victim did not wish to pursue the matter any further than filing the report. Even if rape victims choose not to file criminal
charges, it is very important that they seek medical attention, Bailey said.
n 2004,47 percent of perpetrators in rape cases in the United States were a friend or acquaintance of the victim,compared with complete strangers,which made up 31 percent.
According to the police report, the victim suffered minor injuries. The suspect was an acquaintance of the victim.
According to statistics from the Rape Abuse & Incest National Network, in 2004, 47 percent of perpetrators in rape cases in the United States were a friend or acquaintance of the victim, compared with complete strangers, which made up 31 percent.
Kristen Abell, program coordinator for the Sexual Violence Education & Support Services,
provides training and education on sexual violence and also provides support services and counseling for sexual assault victims
Abell said that women who had been victims of sexual assault didn't always feel comfortable pressing charges. She said that when charges are filed, the victim's sexual past can be publicized.
"For the healing process it is difficult to keep talking about the situation," Abell said.

Who's Who at KU Kathryn Nemeth Tuttle Associate Vice Provost
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 12, 2006
BY ERIN CASTANEDA
editor@kansan.com
KANSAN CORRESPONDENT
Kathryn Tuttle, associate vice provost for student success, has held the position for two and a half years. Student Success is a student services organization that oversees 19 departments and offices and more than 750 employees and 1200 student employees.
Two new associate vice provosts have been appointed to the office — Lori Reesor from UMKC and Frank DeSalvo, former director of Counseling and Psychological Services. Both start working with Tuttle this summer.
Why did Student Success hire two associate vice provests?
We did a national search for
one associate vice provost position, and during the process Rich Morell, former associate vice provost, accepted a vice president position for student affairs at Central Missouri State University, so we ended up with two open positions.
What are you looking forward to next year?
I have worked with both Reesor and DeSalvo before and I am confident we will make a great team with Marlesa Roney, vice provost for student success.
It will be an opportunity for a new start and to see what our next big initiatives are for undergraduates, graduates and our own staff.
What is a typical day like for you?
I put on several hats in this position. I met today with Carol Seager, Watkins Memorial Health Center director, and
talked about mumps. I otter support to their staff and others. I budget with personnel and meet with candidates to work in the Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center. My role is to help support the director and all of the services to help students.
You were the first director of the Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center in 1997. What were your goals then, and do you think the center has surpassed them?
We are still helping the Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center. At first we wanted to provide an adviser for every student. It sounds easy but it is very hard. We have developed a variation on that in the past two years by e-mailing students early in the year to let them know their advisers are, and that they can meet with them any time. I would like to see a better transition
into junior-senior advising, and students being actively involved with their education plans. Students need to take responsibility to find out what is available to them and what they want to do. The advisers and faculty need to give them options, but it is a partnership. It takes two to work. A good advising session happens when the student does his or her homework.
What is the best advice you have for students starting their college careers?
There are so many opportunities to become the person you want to be through your major, organizations and the community. I recommend that students get a campus job because it provides a way for you to get connected. It provides structure and extra money.
Beyond campus, the successful students are those who
are involved in the community. I just hope students don't stay here four years and miss being involved.
We think KU is a pretty special place, and the students are special too. I have been here since 1987 and have continued to be impressed. I want to be sure all students can benefit from what's here.
How were you involved in the community?
Before graduate school in 1976 I started the first vegetarian restaurant called Sister Kettle. It was a co-op that lasted five years.
How long will you be on the second floor of Snow Hall while your office at 133 Strong Hall is being renovated?
It will be another two weeks to renovate the office. I encourage people to visit us in the new office.

Woman gets ticket for crossing too slowly
She said the motorcycle officer who ticketed her on Feb. 15 told her she was obstructing
LOS ANGELES — An 82-year-old woman has received a $114 traffic ticket — for taking too long to cross a street.
Mayvis Coyle said she began shuffling with her cane across Foothill Boulevard in the San Fernando Valley when the light was green but was unable to make it to the other side before it turned red.

Los Angeles police Sgt. Mike Zaboski of the Valley Traffic Division said police are cracking down on people who improperly cross streets because pedestrian accidents are above normal. He said he could not comment on Coyle's ticket other than to say that it is her word against that of the citing officer.
"I think it's completely outrageous," said Coyle.
"I'd rather not have angry pedestrians," Zaboski said.
"But I'd rather have them be alive."

Kentucky Derby to sell $1000 drink for charity
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — As if custom-made hats, premium box seats and limo rides weren't snazzy enough, spectators at this year's Kentucky Derby can now nip a $1,000 mint julep.
The cocktail will be made with one of the state's finest bourbons and served in a gold-plated cup with a silver straw to the first 50 people willing to put down the cash.
Mint from Morocco, ice from the Arctic Circle and sugar from the South Pacific will put the drink in a class of

"We thought we would reflect on and complement the international nature of the Kentucky Derby," said Chris Morris, master distiller for Woodford Reserve.The distillery will sell the drink to raise money for a charity that cares for retired race horses.

Couple fakes obituary, avoids going to work
WATERLOO, Iowa — A couple was apparently so desperate to get out of work that
they created a fake obituary to justify days playing hooky, authorities said.
James Snyder, 36, and Mary Jo Jensen, 33, said Jensen's 17-year-old son had died, police said.
Snyder was charged with tampering with records. Jen-sen was charged with being an accessory after the fact.
Snyder, claiming he was the boy's father, submitted the obituary to the Waterloo-Cedar Falls Courier in December, police said.
Later, people saw the teenager at a downtown restaurant and called authorities.

Mumps threat runs the halls
Students take steps to avoid spreading virus
BY RACHEL PARKER
rparker@kansan.com
KANSA STAFF WRITE
Students living in KU housing are taking the necessary precautions to avoid the spread of mumps, with 29 probable cases at the University as of Tuesday.
Toni Bergquist, Holton freshman and Lewis Hall resident, said she was diagnosed Thursday with the mumps, and she left that same day to spend time at home with her family. She held the assumption that she was infected by someone in one of her classes.
Andrea Hasenauer, Olathe sophomore who lives across the hall from Bergquist, said she wasn't too worried about becoming infected because her parents informed her she had already had the mumps.
Hasenauer said Bergquist's roommates disinfected the room. She said a few people on her floor were uneasy about the breakout, but most were just going along with their lives.
"If it happens, it happens," Hasenauer said.
Diana Robertson, interim director for the Department of Student Housing, said that she knew of one student currently confined to a residence hall who had been diagnosed with the mumps.
Robertson said that some students diagnosed had chosen to leave their residence halls and isolate themselves at home, as they were advised to do by Watkins Memorial Health Center. During the contagious period, this reduces the risk of transmitting the virus to other students in residence halls.
The updated campus mumps information notice for students stated the Kansas Department of Health and Environment had defined the isolation period for mumps to be four days after symptoms first occurred. However, the Department also said that symptoms could be present 12 to 25 days after someone became infected.
University housing has distributed notices to all students in residence halls, scholarship halls, Jayhawker Towers and Stouffer Place Apartments.
Jennifer Wamelink, assistant director of residence life, said flyers were posted in residence halls, and student housing staff received frequently asked questions documents so students' questions about mumps could be answered.
Documents from Watkins give students tips on what to do to be exposed to the infection as little as possible. Students are reminded to cover their mouths and noses when they sneeze or cough, wash their hands frequently and not share food and drinks with others. The ultimate precaution is for students to be quarantined and to stay away from those infected.

Mumps
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
Kansas is not the only state in the Midwest dealing with mumps. Iowa has reported 515 cases and Nebraska 55. Missouri has reported a small number as well.
Kansas and Iowa health officials are looking for any links between the two states and their mumps outbreaks, though none have been identified, said Hansen.
Concerning the University's handling of the mumps situation, Kim Ens, disease control program coordinator for Douglas County, said that the county and the University had been working together very closely to get the word out to both students and Douglas County residents about how to avoid contracting the virus.
Hansen said that the University and Douglas County were doing a "stellar job" of working
Ens said the best way to protect yourself was to be immunized by receiving an MMR — Mumps, Measles and Rubella — shot. In Kansas — and most states across the country — schools require that a child have two MMR shots before being allowed to begin kindergarten.
together
Hansen said that 75 percent of the 48 reported cases received at least one immunization.
Rodenberg and Hansen both said that at this stage in the mumps investigation process, the KDHE was not as concerned with finding where the problem originated, but more with preventing the virus from spreading further.
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 3A
Ens, meanwhile, said that she was optimistic that the problem will get worked out.
Edited by Kathryn Anderson
The 48 mumps cases reported in Kansas this year — including 37 in Douglas County and 29 among KU students — is nearly three times the number of mumps cases reported in the state in the past dozen years.

WASHINGTON — Former President Clinton said Tuesday that one his "great regrets" was failing to do more to bridge the economic and social gaps between white and black people in the United States.
Clinton regrets lack of progress
BY DEVLIN BARRETT
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Speaking to a black think tank, the former president offered a somber, sorrowful reflection on the end of his time in the White House and his failed effort to spark a national debate about race relations.
The current immigration debate in the country is further proof that important racial problems have yet to be solved. Clinton told the Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies.
"The idea that I live in a country I spent my lifetime trying to make better, but there's still hundreds of thousands, maybe millions of people, most of them people of color, who will die before their time, drop out of school, go to prison, never have a chance to live their dreams, is
gallling and painful to me," Clinton said.
"One of the great regrets of my public life is that for all the progress we made in so many areas we are still losing so many of our young people of color, disproportionately African-American males," he said.
The former president urged private citizens to take action on racial issues, saying disasters like the tsunami in Asia and Hurricane Katrina show non-governmental organizations can rebuild and improve society.
"I don't know how you have a great country that is a beacon of hope for the world for peace and freedom and democracy if you let a third of any group of people wind up going to prison sometime in their lives," said Clinton.
A 2005 government report found that 8.4 percent of the country's black men between the ages of 25 and 29 were in state or federal prison, compared with 2.5 percent of Hispanic men and 1.2 percent of white men in the same age group.

North Korea nuclear talks remain stalled
WORLD
Discussions to end program not expected any time soon
BY KWANG-TAE KIM THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TOKYO — The top U.S. negotiator on ending North Korea's nuclear program renewed his call for the country to rejoin six-party talks, but said after meeting officials from other key nations that he didn't expect it to happen soon.
U. S. Assistant Secretary of State Christopher Hill held a round of meetings with counterparts on the North Korea talks from Japan, South Korea and China on Tuesday on the
sidelines of a security conference in Tokyo.
"My understanding is that the DPRK is still not willing to rejoin the six-party process," Hill told reporters late Tuesday. DPRK stands for the North's official name, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.
North Korea's delegate to the nuclear talks, Kim Kye Gwan, was also attending the conference.
Hill denied reports he met with North Korean and Chinese nuclear envoys for talks on Tuesday evening. U.S. and North Korean officials have refused to confirm any official contact between the two sides.
This week's security meetings had raised hopes about the possibility of restarting talks that have been stalled since last year on ending
North Korea's nuclear program in exchange for aid.
North Korea has boycotted the six-party nuclear talks since November, citing what it calls a hostile U.S. attitude illustrated by the sanctions it has imposed.
North Korea's Kim said Monday he is prepared to meet bilaterally with the U.S., but has not backed away from his insistence that Pyongyang will return to the negotiating table only if the U.S. lifts financial sanctions.
Washington maintains that sanctions on North Korean companies for alleged financial crimes are unrelated to the nuclear talks and will stay in place.
Hill described his Tuesday morning meeting with China's top nuclear envoy, Wu Dawei, as "very excellent" and said Beijing was committed to resolving the standoff through dialogue.
"We discussed the way forward in the six-party process," Hill said, without giving details. "We discussed some specific ideas about how we can make the process move ahead."
Hill also met South Korea's Chun and Japan's Kenichiro Sasae.
Chun told reporters after meeting with Hill that North Korea seems to be considering talks, but that "it is difficult to say at this point whether it will lead to a resumption."
The security conference's agenda will focus on energy, verification processes regarding the North's nuclear program and ways to ease tensions on the Korean Peninsula, according to the sponsors, University of California, San Diego.

Police search for missing girl
BY JOHN HANNA THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
INDEPENDENCE, KAN. Kansas and Oklahoma authorities were searching Tuesday for a 16-year-old girl who reportedly was abducted from her home in Independence, Kan.
Kelsey Lynn Stelting was last seen about 6:30 a.m. while getting ready for school, said her mother, Kelly Cox. The softball player was getting a bag of softball bats from the family car and did not return to the house, Cox said.
Police believe she was abducted in a white van of unknown make or model, which
was last seen going south on U.S. 75 toward Oklahoma, Independence Police Chief Lee A. Bynum told the Independence Daily Reporter.
"Shortly after that we called authorities," Cox said in a telephone interview. "We knew something was wrong right away."
Cox said when she went outside to see where Kelsey was, the doors to the family's car were open, and the keys were on the ground.
The family had not heard from the girl by Tuesday afternoon, she said. The family was offering a $50,000 reward for Kelsay's safe return.
Kelsey is blond, blue-eyed,
weighs 112 pounds and is 5 feet
4 inches tall. She was last seen
wearing black shorts, a T-shirt
and tennis shoes.
The family said a 911 call was made from Kelsey's cell phone, but Bynum refused to discuss the call because of the ongoing investigation.
Kelsey's father, Gerald Stelling, lives in Houston and arrived in Independence after noon. He told the Independence Daily Reporter he was "in shock."
Bynum said planes were searching along U.S. 75 and in the rural areas of Montgomery County. Law enforcement officials also were scouring the list of registered sex offenders in the area.
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN SA WORLD
Cox said the family hadn't received any threats, and Kelsey had no reason to run away. The junior in high school was preparing to play in a softball doubleheader Tuesday evening, was doing well academically, and was a member of the student council and captain of the dance team, she said.
Anyone with information has been asked to call the Independence Police Department at (620) 332-1700 or the Kansas Bureau of Investigation at (800) KS-CRIME.
Stroke ends career of prime minister
BY ARON HELLER
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
JERUSALEM — With his chair empty and a small brown gavel lying untouched in front of it, ailing Prime Minister Ariel Sharon was declared permanently incapacitated by Israel's Cabinet on Tuesday, officially ending his five-year tenure.
After the stroke, Sharon's deputy, Ehud Olmert immediately stepped in as his temporary replacement. Olmert has since won national elections as leader of the centrist Kadima Party, and has become the designated prime minister, assigned the task of forming a coalition government.
Sharon, 78, suffered a devastating stroke Jan. 4 and has been in a coma since.
Tuesday's declaration was largely symbolic in nature since Olmert has been Israel's de facto leader since January, and because medical experts believe Sharon's chances of recovery are slim.
Under Israeli law, an aling prime minister can only have a temporary replacement for up to 100 days before an official successor must be named. That deadline expires Friday, but because the week-long Jewish Passover holiday begins Wednesday, the declaration of permanent incapacitation was moved up to Tuesday.
"Today, we realize that he is not with us anymore in the political arena, that he could not see the results of what he initiated, the Kadima Party," said Cabinet minister Meir Sheetrit of Kadima.
Cabinet Secretary Israel Maimon noted at the beginning of a special Cabinet session that Friday marks the end of the 100-day period.
the end of 100 days, the government must appoint a minister from his party as the acting prime minister, until the establishment of a new government. The suggestion laid forth today is to appoint the head of the Kadima party, the acting prime minister Ehud Olmert, as the prime minister in practice," Maimon said.
"According to the law, at
Sharon has been lying unconscious since his stroke. Last week, surgeons reattached a portion of his skull removed in previous surgery. It was his eighth operation since he fell ill.
Sharon underwent a CT scan on Monday to determine the outcome of surgery on his skull last week, Hadassah Hospital spokesman Ron Krumer said.
The scan revealed no change in his condition, which the hospital defines as "serious but stable," meaning that his life is not in immediate danger.
Hadassah officials have said that discussions were still under way on whether to move Sharon to a long-term care facility. Experts say his chances of recovery are extremely slim, given the gravity of his stroke and his persistent coma.
Sharon suffered the stroke weeks after leaving the hawkish Likud Party and forming the new centrist Kadima movement, pledging to pull out of large parts of the West Bank and draw Israel's final borders by 2010.
Sharon had been expected to coast to a third straight term as prime minister, and his removal from the political scene shocked Israelis.
Led by Olmert, Sharon's heir apparent, Kadima won last month's Israeli election, although by a smaller margin that was expected when Sharon led the party. Analysts have said the party's popularity was a result of Sharon's legacy.

Abilene Police Officer Mike McAuliffe, second from left, and teacher Pat Donahue, left, pull on a hydraulic jack while Abilene High School students push a trashed-out Chevrolet left overnight in the school's courtyard as a senior prank Tuesday in Abilene, Texas. Fences and overhanging breeway ceilings prevented access to the car by tow truck, resulting in the elbow grease solution. Vandals had cemented the car's wheels into holes, driven a large pole through the roof into the earth beneath, and spray painted "Seniors 06" on the side.
Public records sealed by agency
BY FRANK BASS
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NATION
WASHINGTON — The National Archives agreed to seal previously public CIA and Pentagon records and to keep silent about U.S. intelligence's role in the reclassification, according to an agreement released under the Freedom of Information Act.
The 2002 agreement, requested three years ago by The Associated Press and released this week, shows archivists were concerned about reclassifying previously available documents — many of them more than 50 years old — but nonetheless agreed to keep mum.
Intelligence officials began reviewing documents for reclassification in 1999. The New York Times reported earlier this year.
The number of documents
that have been removed from public view, however, has soared since President Bush took office in 2001 and the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks occurred.
An estimated 55,000 pages within 10,000 documents have been removed from public view, ranging from information about 1948 anti-American riots in Colombia to a 1962 telegram containing a translation of a Belgrade news article about China's nuclear capabilities.
National Archivist Allen Weinstein announced a moratorium on the reclassification last month so his information security oversight office could audit the process.
Historians expressed concern about the secrecy in the reclassification agreement.
"This whole activity was effectively concealed," said Steven Aftergood, director of the Federation of American Scientists' government secrecy project. "It's baffling. It's basically a covert action taking place at the National Archives."
Aftergood also said he found it odd that the agreement named two of the agencies involved in the reclassification program — the U.S. Air Force and Central Intelligence Agency — but redacted the name of a third, arguing it would compromise national security, reveal internal government deliberations and violate statutes against disclosure of specific information.
In congressional testimony last month, a historian said the third agency was the Defense Intelligence Agency.
Archivists refused to address his assertions.

Series wives share man, stars share thoughts
Actresses, from left, Ginnifer Goodwin, Jeanne Triplehorn and Chloe Sevigny portray Bill Paxton's three wives in the HBO dramatic series "Big Love," which airs on HBO at 9 p.m. on Sundays.

BY FRAZIER MOORE THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — There was something about playing the three wives on "Big Love," HBO's polygamy drama, that made three fine actresses answer: "I do," "I do," "I do."
"I was really shocked at myself for signing on without knowing where it was gonna go, or much of anything else," says Chloe Sevigny, who co-stars with Jeanne Triplehorn and Ginnifer Goodwin in this unconventionally devout series (following "The Sopranos" at 9 p.m. Sundays).
"But after reading the pilot, I was so moved by it," she continued, "and I was fascinated by my character" — Nicki, the sulky middle wife of Salt Lake City merchant and father of seven Bill Henrickson, played by Bill Paxton.
"I had months of auditioning," recalls Goodwin, who was vying for the role of the excitable, childish third wife, Margene.
Goodwin's screen test was a love scene with Paxton.
"I was pulling out of the driveway on the phone with my agent, saying, 'I blew it. I made out with a stranger, and I think I must have unset him'" she said.
Then another call came in:
"Welcome to 'Big Love!'"
Tripplehorn said she had been wanting to do a television series "but I don't like legal dramas. I don't like medical dramas. I was looking for a comedy."
"I went through all sorts of emotions: 'I don't think I'm right.' Everyone is really nice." But she trusted the script. "The family situation was handled
Before accepting the part of Barb — Henrickson's wife of 17 years and the matriarchal focus for the whole family — she initially wavered.
with such dignity and intelligence and class."
"Polygamy is just the back-drop," explains Goodwin, noting the Henricksons' overwhelming righteous lifestyle in their three adjoining suburban tract homes. The fact is, "Big Love" seldom turns out to be what you expect.
"I think it's funny how there are a thousand shows out there, and a thousand movies, that are glorifying affairs, while this man is being completely honest with his wives," says Goodwin. (Well, not quite honest: Splicing up his round-robin bedroom regimen, he and Barb have been sneaking around on the others.) "And all his wives love each other."
"We're all married to each other," Tripplehorn agreed. "But I did have a problem in the very beginning with Barb, with bringing dimension to her, because she is so generous in spirit. As we went along, I found subtleties — Barb is selfish in her own way — but at first I felt like she was so saint-like and boring, while Margene and Nicki were so beautifully defined."
"Margene is 23 going on, like,
10," Goodwin says. "She has a way of creating utter chaos, and still finds a way of making none of it her fault.
"But I can only define her now that I have some distance. When we were shooting, I felt messy, while, watching you," she says to Triplelhorn, "I felt like YOU were so specifie."
The show was in production from last April through September, "and by the end," says Seyvigny, "I was so sick of being a bitch! I thought, 'Audiences are gonna hate this character.'"
True, Nicki is a snop, a shopaholic and often a sourpuss. "But I think she is a very sympathetic character." Sevigny declares. "I fell SO in love with her! It's the greatest part I've ever had."
"I was always telling Chloe how much I wanted that role," says Triplehorn with a smile.
"When we were shooting one of the final episodes." Sevigny reminds her, "Barb was still a saint and Nicki was still a bitch, and I was sort of freaking out. I said, 'We should trade. Just once.'"

OUR OPINION
Control your money: Get out and vote
It's that time of year again. At 4 p.m. today, the polls will close on the 2006 Student Senate elections. For the past several weeks, prospective and incumbent senators and their coalitions have campaigned all across campus, extolling their platforms and goals for the next academic year and encouraging the student body to vote.
Despite this lack of involvement, the Kansan wants to stress the importance of the election. Regardless of whether you don't care for politics or who sits in the president's office, your vote is needed to determine the fate of student governance and those who represent us to other Universities
In the past, campus-wide involvement in Student Senate has been anything but overwhelming. In 2004, only 14 percent of the student body voted in the elections. In 2005, that figure dropped to 13 percent, despite the introduction of online voting. Students avoid campaigning hotspots on their way to class. The University Daily Kansan has run comics that compare crossing campus during campaign season to running a gauntlet.
Issue: Student Senate elections give the student body a voice on campus.
Stance: Get out and vote and exercise your rights.
Students pay nearly $600 in student fees every year that Student Senate spends, whether a student voted or not. Those fees have the potential to fluctuate after this election, with three referendums ranging from an additional $20 a semester to aid non-revenue sports to a $46 reduction in fees per semester.
Let the University know how you want yourself represented and how you want a portion of your money spent. You don't even have to go on campus to do it. Just go to www.election. ku.edu/ and click on the "Vote Here" link. It will only take a few minutes.
It's your money and your University. Go vote.

Sometimes getting to the Student Recreation Fitness Center after a long — or even short — day is impossible. You'd rather stay at home and watch Real World, or even better, drink yourself into an oblivion. If you had a workout partner, however, it might just give you the extra motivation you need to skip the TV and potato chips and head to the gym.

Having a workout partner increases the likelihood of going to the gym because you have a commitment. If you don't have that commitment, you'll give-in to the first thought of relaxation
press and your workout partner can bench 25 pounds more than you, you're probably going to add a little more than usual to compete. The same goes for cardio. I know when I'm running with a friend I run a lot faster than I do when I'm alone. Most people can go for a longer duration when they have someone with them.
You should keep in mind a few things while choosing a workout partner. Aim for someone who is around the same fitness level as you, or higher. There's nothing worse than having to drop your workout to a lower level just to cater to someone else's needs. Be serious about time commitments you set up, and stick to them. If you plan to meet every Monday and Wednesday at 3, and the other
You won't always be able to workout with someone every time you want to workout. For times when I workout alone, I rely heavily on music. As most people on campus are, I'm addicted to my iPod.

These are perfect for all those times you just feel like giving up
According to realbuzz.com, the benefits of a workout partner are endless. Not only does it improve your time by giving you the extra edge to push harder, but you're also getting in social time, which makes it more fun. Any exercise program that is fun will last much longer than one that doesn't engage you.
You can also use partner workout sessions to increase the intensity of your workouts by being competitive. I know no guy likes to be shown up at the gym. If you're doing a bench

Pride Week is a week where GLBTIQ (Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender, Intersex and Questioning) people can show their pride in being who they are. It is not "flaunting" sexuality. If GLBTIQ people were flaunting it.
You only noticed because they have a special week — a week that should not have to be. But because of people like you, simple-minded quote submitter, we have to have special days, weeks and months, because people won't allow them to be who they are.
We have these times to celebrate diversity as well as to call attention to the fact that our fellow humans are not receiving the same human rights as straight, white men. Look at all of the special months we have. We have months for African-Americans, women and GLBTIQ. Those are three months for people who are all at a disadvantage because of who they are. This should not be.
then stereotypes would be thrown in your face everyday. They would overexaggerate their sexuality in order to get attention. Nobody was overexaggerating anything.

When I first came to Spain, I didn't expect I would become fluent in the four months that I'd live here, but I hoped that I would improve. I have made several observations about learning a foreign language in a foreign country that I hope those who sincerely want to learn a second language — not just pass the required four semesters — and those who plan to study abroad find interesting and helpful.
Learning language not so simple
After being here for three months, I have realized how easy it is to linguistically isolate oneself while in a country in which everyone speaks a foreign language. I chose to come to a university that offered classes in English, because I didn't feel that my Spanish was at a level that I could have attended classes in Spanish. Because almost all my classes are in English, except for Spanish class, I attend lecture, ask questions, read and do all of my work in English. Additionally the vast majority of my classmates are American, so it would be kind of silly for us to speak Spanish together (We've tried, but it usually fails as soon as one of us doesn't know the word for something in Spanish and then we just go back to speaking English). Because I attend classes with Americans, I have made friends with and hang out with Americans, not with Spaniards. Not having Spanish friends is probably the biggest mistake I've made here.
There are good days and there are bad days. On a good day it seems as if I'm really improving and I can talk with ease, without pre-formulating phrases in my head. Then, the next day, I think I haven't improved at all. My sentences are dodgy and I can't remember the words I want to say
My interaction in Spanish is not ideal, but it comes from generally two places. I live with a host "sefiora" and I speak with her probably more than I do with anyone, but even so we usually only hold conversations over dinner. The other interaction is with people who I encounter at stores, restaurants and bars, but one can get by with a very basic level of language for those types of interactions.
Learning a second language is not impossible. My host brother, who recently moved out, spoke Spanish and French like a native, insanely good English and was learning Italian. I have found that many Europeans know several languages, which can be very frustrating because I'm struggling with only my second language. At the same time it's comforting to know that it can be done with time and practice.
Humor is one of the hardest things to understand. If you think about it, most jokes, except for practical ones, rely on some sort of play on words. Well if you can just barely hold a conversation, it's unlikely that you'll be able to pick up on the double meaning of any given word. I was recently told a short joke, but then spent the next 10 minutes having the jokester explain it to me. I still don't get it.

Not many 6-year-olds who sell lemonade on the street corner end up CEOs of their own franchises. Joe Bisogno is the exception.
From his humble beverage-serving beginnings, to sweeping barbershop floors, shining
Bisogno
shoes and runing a paper route, Bisogno has worked his way up in the business world by investing in his future. The payoff has been manifold. Bisogno is
the founder and CEO of Mr. Goodcents, a sub sandwich and pasta franchise known for its fresh, quick, low-cost food and customer-friendly atmosphere.
Without a bachelor's degree, the business owner worked his way to the top through hard work and experience.
As a teenager, Bisogno owned and operated an ice cream truck, gas station and used car lot.
He moved on to manage a McDonald's and eventually became a professor at McDonald's Hamburger University. Bisogno said he gained more of a sense of business ethics through McDonald's long-established practices than he could have in any formal college class.
Because he had always dreamed of owning his own company, Joe opened his first Mr. Goodcents restaurant in Lenexa in 1989, a year after he stopped working for McDonald's.
For those living in the heartland, the muscular penny logo of Mr. Goodcents has become a familiar sight. Bisogno said the Mr. Goodcents penny stood for value because customers could expect a large volume of food for a reasonable price.
He said Mr. Goodcents' brawny arms and legs were symbolic of hard work and endurance, and his smile showed the enjoyment and satisfaction that he got from serving customers and being involved in his community.
Bisogno encourages each restaurant to participate in sponsorship programs and to help local charities through
fund raising.
Bisogno said his creed was, "Have a plan. Work your plan. Love your work."
This attitude drove him to his current success. He said that in the beginning he worked "25 hours a day, 8 days a week." He has not worked a day in 17 years.
He said that he loved his job and that it was not work, in any sense of the word. For any person aspiring to discover success in life, Bisogno recommends finding a passion, working at it and loving it.
He said too many people focused on changing jobs every few years. Instead, people should find what they love to do and do it.
Joe Bisogno is a living testament to his philosophy; he loves his job and has no desire to do anything else.
With restaurants open in 16 states, it seems that industriousness and zeal has paid off for Bisogno. So the next time you drive by a kid selling lemonade by the street, take a closer look. You could be looking at your future boss.

Self optimistic at ceremony

KANSAN SENIOR SPORTSWITTER
Talk following Kansas' basketball awards ceremony quickly moved away from the awards to Brandon Rush's future as a Jayhawk.
Rush, freshman guard, told reporters following the ceremony that he had heard where he might be headed in the NBA draft and had chosen to stay at Kansas. The Kansas City, Mo., native said that the only way he would have left would have been if he had heard he was a
guaranteed first-round pick, and that news did not come.
"I am just looking forward to coming back and having a great season and lead us to a national championship," Rush said. "I think I can just wait until next year to see where I am at."
He added that he thought the team could win a national championship next year and could be a team similar to this year's champion, Florida, thanks to the sophomores' play.
Kansas coach Bill Self gave Rush the information three weeks ago and said he was delighted when he heard that Rush.
after hearing where he might go, would return for his sophomore season. Rush said that he planned to focus on improving his left hand in the off-season.
"I told him all along that he should do what is best for him and his family. He has been consistent all along saying that if he wasn't guaranteed anything that he wasn't going to leave, I think it is great news." Self said.
Self added that he had not pressured Rush to make a decision on whether to stay or go to the NBA.

Tracy Bunge might want to consider looking into sports psychology.
"I need to get my kids to relax in big situations," Bunge, Kansas softball coach, said. "The intensity and effort are there, but they just need to not force it and make it happen."
Kansas will try its best to relax today when it travels to Columbia, Mo., to take on Missouri. Not only is the game important for the Big 12 Conference race, it also carries more sway because it is a Border Showdown game.
"In every sport, all athletes have more motivation against Missouri," Bunge said. "Our team respects Missouri and is ready to start this portion of the rivalry."
Last year, the two teams split the two-game series, with each team winning on the road. In Columbia, the Jayhawks beat a Top 25-
ranked Tigers team 5-3. Senior outfitter Nettie Fierros drove in three runs to lead the Hawks.
With eight returning starters from last season's NCAA Regional team, the Tigers (18-17, 2-4) have struggled with consistency this season, especially offensively. They have averaged only one run per game in their last four games, but averaged more than six runs per game in their five previous games. Last weekend Texas swept Missouri in a two-game series.
Kansas (21-19 overall, 2-5 Big 12) split a two-game series at Baylor last weekend, winning the first game 2-1 and losing the second game by the same score.
"Missouri has been inconsistent this year, but they have lots of talent and depth," Bunge said. "All nine batters in their lineup can all swing the bat and that puts pressure on our pitching."

Kansas barely escaped with a 5-4 victory against North Dakota State Tuesday night, but when the got tough got tough, the fans got going.
"It felt like a morgue in the dugout," senior closer Don Czyz said. "Having some behind us up there was huge, and I think it got a lot of guys going."
On three occasions this season fans have shown up in record fashion. For the first game of the Missouri series, 1,821 showed up, and 1,971 attended the second. Those set the seventh and fourth highest attendance, respectively, in Kansas history. On March 29 against Wichita State, 2,324 fans filled Hoglund Ballpark to set the all-time Kansas Records record

their unwavering support of the Jayhawks paid off when senior shortstop Ritchie Price crossed the plate to clinch the Kansas victory. Fans
"I was shocked. I didn't think we'd have 100 people here tonight," coach Ritch Price said. "I just hope tomorrow we put on a better performance for our fans because we really let them down today."
Brian Bender, Shawnee freshman, and Dave MacKay, Shawnee senior, have been to every Kansas home game this season and, between the two, made road trips to Wichita State and Nebraska. They said they planned to travel to road games at Kansas State, Oklahoma State and Texas.

Jayhawks defeat Bison — barely

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Standing on the field after Tuesday's victory, Kansas coach Ritch Price apologized to the media for having to watch the game.
In the bottom of the ninth, with the score tied at four, senior outfielder Matt Baty laid a bunt down the third base line.
Kansas defeated North Dakota State, 5-4, but it was ugly.
The bunt allowed senior Ritchie Price to score from second base.
By defensive standards, the Jayhawks' (24-13, 6-6) winning run should have never been on base.
Nonetheless, Mitch McNary, the freshman right-hander called in to throw the ninth, fielded Baty's bunt and chucked it over freshman second baseman Sean Thomas' head.
The ball rolled around in foul territory, and Price scored the winning run. "A win's a win," said Baty, who was one of two seniors in Tuesday's starting lineup. "It doesn't matter how you get it."
Just minutes before, senior closer Don Czyzst struck out the side in the top of the ninth. Not wanting to use his ace closer in a non-conference midweek game, Price told Czyzz before the game that he would pitch
"He said, 'If things get hairy, then we'll bring you in,'" Czyz said, about his conversation with Price before the game. "I guess it was a pretty hairy situation out there tonight."
North Dakota State (2-25) took the lead in the first inning. Junior right-hander Brendan McNamara surrendered a walk to junior center fielder Greg Plecki.
Left fielder Jared Sullivan singled to right field and collected his first RBI of the game. The senior picked up another in the top of the fifth, highlighting a three-run innning.
Coming in to the series with two victories, losing 23 of their last 24, the Bison surprised onlookers as they took their second lead of the game in the fifth.
only if seriously needed.
"They played good enough to win tonight," coach Price said of the Bison. "They probably deserved to win."
Notching three runs in its first at-bat, the match-up looked uneven in the first inning. The Jayhawks' run trio used only one base hit. Instead, Kansas relied heavily on the mishaps of starting pitcher Ryan Williams. Williams walked four and hit a batter in the inning.

DNA test results clear Duke lacrosse players
DURHAM, N.C. — DNA testing failed to connect any members of the Duke University lacrosse team to the alleged rape of a stripper, attorneys for the athletes said.
Citing DNA test results delivered by the state crime lab to police and prosecutors a few hours earlier, the attorneys said the test results prove their clients did not sexually assault and beat a stripper hired to perform at a March 13 team party.
No charges have been filed in the case.

Kansas places ninth in tourney
BY STEPHEN BERGMAN
sbergman@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTSWITER
Fresh off of its first victory since the fall of 2004, the Kansas women's golf team competed in the Susie Maxwell Berning Classic. This time around, the team's ninth-place finish out of seventeen teams left a little to be desired from Kansas coach Erin O'Neil.
"We have some things to tighten up before the Big 12 Tournament," O'Neil said. "We need to really focus on our short game some more and have better course management."
Junior Amanda Costner tied for sixth place with a three- round total of 222—just seven

her part for the Jayhawks when she shot a three-round total of 229, good enough to tie for 11th place. She produced low scores in the first two rounds, but was unable to hang on to the momentum, shooting an 82 in the final round to push her out of top-10 contention.
Senior Chelsey Pryor finished tied for 28th despite shooting just one stroke more than Giangrosso. Pryor's total of 230 was the result of a first-round struggle. She shot a dismal round of 82, but then fought back with solid rounds of 75 and 73 to finish.
Next up for Kansas will be a trip to Lincoln, Neb., April 17 to 19 for the Big 12 Championship.
On March 26, the women achieved their first tournament victory of the season. The tournament, Mountain View Collegiate, featured six other Big 12 teams. However, this weekend the Jayhawks finished seventh out of the eight Big 12 teams represented.
"We do everything we are capable of, we can finish top five," O'Neil said. "Right now we are 17th in the central region and they accept 21 teams."
Kansas is in position to control its own destiny. Perform well, and its dreams could be reality. Perform poorly, and they could be left at the mercy of the selection committee. There is also an outside chance that automatic bids could spoil the party for the Jayhawks. Teams with poor rankings could still win their conference tournaments and receive bids that would bump out teams close to the 21-team cut-off.
"If we really stay focused, we can finish up really well," O'Neil said.

Yankees defeat Royals, win ninth home opener

NEW YORK — Derek Jeter's three-run homer capped a five-run rally in the eighth inning, which allowed the New York Yankees to beat the Kansas City Royals 9-7 Tuesday for win their club-record ninth straight home opener.
"The season doesn't officially start till you get this one out of the way," Jeter said. "Fortunately, we were able to sneak this one out."
New York wasted a 4-1 fourth-inning lead and trailed 7-4 in the eighth, when it loaded the bases against Andrew Sisco on a single wrapped around two walks. Robinson Cano hit an RBI groundout and Bernie Williams punched a run-scoring single to left.
Scott Proctor (1-1) pitched one inning for the win, and Mariano Rivera finished for his first save.
Kansas City lost its 12th straight at Yankee Stadium dating to August 2002. Reggie Sanders and Shane Costa homered for the Royals, who couldn't overcome nine walks.

Jason Giambi hit a three-run homer in the first inning off struggling Joe Mays, and Damon jump-started New York's early offense with an opposite-field double and a walk in his first two plate appearances.
With Kansas City trailing, Sanders homered off Chien-Ming Wang in a three-run fourth, and Angel Berroa grounded into a go-ahead double play after the Royals put their first three runners on in the sixth.
Tanyon Sturtze relieved Wang starting the seventh, and Costa sent his first pitch into the first row of the right-field seats for a 6-4 lead. Mark Grudzielanek doubled and, one out later, Sanders hit an RBI single off Alex Rodriguez's glove at third.

Randall looking for winning combination
The Kansas men's golf team has struggled to find consistency recently, forcing coach Ross Randall to shuffle players in and out of the lineup in search of a solid starting group.
Going into last weekend's Courtyard by Marriott Intercollegiate, Randall decided to start five proven veterans. After his team tied for a lastplace finish, Randall may have to keep searching for a workable lineup.
The Jayhawks left Cary, N.C., in a tie for 13th place out of 14 teams. In three rounds, Kansas racked up a total score of 895 at the par 72 MacGregor Downs Country Club.
Junior Gary Woodland was one of the few bright spots for Kansas, playing two of his three rounds under par to finish in a tie for 22nd. Senior Pete Krsnich struggled in the second round, but managed to finish tied for 52nd.

College baseball gets hall of fame
The hall of fame museum will be part of a new baseball stadium complex, which will be built on the campus of Texas Tech and is scheduled to open before the 2008 season.
BY DENNIS WASZAK JR.
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Dave Winfield dominated from the mound, Pete Incaviglia became the home run king and Robin Ventura went on a 58-game hitting streak.
That was back when they were still wearing their school colors, before they became major league stars.
Winfield, Incaviglia and Ventura are among 46 nominees for the hall's inaugural class. The finalists will be announced April 26, followed by an induction ceremony July 4 in Lubbock, Texas.
Now, there will be a College Baseball Hall of Fame to honor them, with the announcement set for Wednesday.
The 22 former players,12 former coaches and 12 pre-1947 veterans will be voted on strictly because of their college achievements. The list will be pared down through two rounds of voting by an 80-member committee consisting of current and retired head coaches,former players, NCAA commissioners,sports information directors and media.
"Just like Canton and Cooperstown, sports fans around the nation will begin to turn their attention to Lubbock every summer," said John Askins, chairman and CEO of the College Baseball Foundation, which established the hall.
"Different groups have talked about a college baseball hall of fame, but we decided to do something about it," he said.
Winfield, a member of the Baseball Hall of Fame, led the University of Minnesota as a pitcher and outfielder, and was chosen the Most Outstanding Player of the 1973 College World Series.
Incaviglia was one of college baseball's most feared sluggers, setting the career marks for homers with 100 in just three years at Oklahoma State. His 1985 season is the most impressive offensive performance in college history, with 48 home runs, 143 RBIs, 285 total bases and a 1.140 slugging percentage — all remain as single-season Division I records.
Ventura gained national recognition in 1987 with his 58-game hitting streak still a Division I record and had a career batting average of .428 at Oklahoma State.

Memorable Pros, taking full advantage of four costly errors by the Grace Pearson Mens outfield, scored six runs in the third inning en route to a 18-8 victory in intramural softball Monday.
Grace Pearson Mens held a 5-3 lead after two innings, but its excellent fielding at the start of the game quickly turned into a nightmare. Numerous errors sent the team to its first loss of the season.
"We struggled in the third inning, we couldn't get the final out," Matt Pfizenmaier, Clay Center senior and Grace Pearson Mens pitcher, said. Pfizenmaier pitched well despite the staggering 18 runs that Memoable Pros scored.

was a three-RBI double.
"I was really proud of us for keeping our composure," Chura said. "It was good to get a win like this under our belts."
The game was still within reach for Grace Pearson Mens in the fourth inning until Patrick Bernard, Lawrence junior, stepped up to the plate.
Bernard hit a grand slam that gave Memorable Pros a commanding 13-7 lead. Bernard hit two home runs in the game and was an asset to his team defensively in left field as well.
"This was my first game for the team," Bernard said. "It was a good time."
Memorable Pros' John Carlton, Leavenworth junior, also contributed offensively. He was 3-for-4 in the game and had four
RBI. Pitcher jaxon Lee, Leavenworth junior, got off to a rocky start, but eventually settled down and pitched two scoreless innings.
The rough night continued for Grace Pearson Mens as the game moved into the late innings. Grace Pearson Mens made an additional four errors in the final two innings, which brought the total to nine in the five-inning game.
Grace Pearson Mens was led by center fielder Kevin Robertson, Pittsburg sophomore, who hit a home run and a double in his first two at-bats.
Pfizenmaier said he encouraged his team to shrug off the loss.
"These are errors that we can prevent in the future," Pfizenmaier said.

Earlier in the evening Rush was named Dr. Forrest C. "Phog" Allen Most Valuable Player, after he was the first freshman in Kansas basketball history to lead the team in scoring and rebounding. Rush averaged 13.5 points per game and 5.9 rebounds per game.
"I feel pretty good about it. I thought it was going to go to Russell or someone like that. It's a good award to win." Rush said.
The ceremony focused on the team's accomplishments, but Self and master of ceremonies Dave Armstrong also talked about next season.
"Going into the season, we're hoping to be pretty good," Self said. "This next year, I know we are going to be good."
The event was a lighthearted affair, with Self joking about Rodrick Stewart's new girlfriend, and Armstrong joking that Kansas athletics director Lew Perkins did not require those in attendance to pay for tickets.
The ceremony was the last team event for Kansas' senior class — Stephen Vinson, Christian Moody, Jeff Hawkins and Moulaye Niang. The seniors said that they would miss the team's camaraderie.
About 700 fans showed up for the event at the Kansas Union.
Sophomore guard Russell Robinson took home the Danny Manning "Mr. Jayhawk" Award, given to the player that showed the most leadership.

Pitching has been the one constant for the Jayhawks lately. Last weekend, junior pitcher Kassie Humphreys, Kansas' likely starter against Missouri, had a career-high 13 strikeouts in a victory against Baylor. She backed that up with three strikeouts in two innings of relief on Sunday.

Those performances on the mound have been the only way for Kansas to win with the offense struggling lately. After scoring 12 runs against Oklahoma State on April 1, the Jayhawks have managed only five runs in their last four games.
Wednesday against Missouri, Kansas could be in for another difficult time at the plate with
Missouri pitcher Jen Bruck likely taking the hill. Bruck is 16-12 on the season and is averaging barely fewer than five strikeouts per game.
"It's important for us to stay together," senior outfielder Heather Stanley said. "We need to be mentally tough to hit well."

Logan Young, an Alabama booster convicted of bribing a high school football coach to get a top recruit for the Crimson Tide, was found dead Tuesday in his Memphis home, and police were investigating it as a homicide.

Police investigate death
BY WOODY BAIRD THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — A University of Alabama football supporter convicted of bribing a high school coach to get a top recruit was found dead in his home, police told Tuesday.
Police would not say how Logan Young, 65, died, but they were investigating it as a homicide and had no suspects or motive, said Sgt. Vince Higgins. The killing appeared to have happened overnight Monday.
"The nature of the attack was brutal," Higgins said. "The entire house is a crime scene."
Young was free while he appealed his 2005 federal conviction on money laundering and racketeering conspiracy involving the recruitment of defensive
lineman Albert Means.
Former high school coach Lynn Lang pled guilty to the racketeering conspiracy, and testified that Young paid $150,000 to get Means to sign with Alabama in 2000.
Means' recruitment led to an NCAA investigation and sanctions against Alabama in 2002, costing the school scholarships and bowl appearances.
NCAA
Nevada extends coach's contract
BY SCOTT SONNER
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
"I never thought I would leave. I never entertained the thought of leaving," Fox told reporters at a news conference on campus.
RENO, Nev. — Nevada basketball coach Mark Fox, who led the Wolf Pack to consecutive NCAA tournament appearances and a 52-13 record in his two years in the top job, agreed to a new five-year contract Tuesday.
Fox, 36, the Western Athletic Conference coach of the year the past two seasons, had one year left on a three-year contract that would have paid him $270,000 next season.
Nevada athletic director Cary Groth announced the new contract will keep Fox on through 2011.
"Over the past several months, we've discussed ways in which we can continue to build on the success of our men's basketball program. But one key issue was the retention of our men's basketball coach." Groth said
"He's done a heck of a lot for this institution, for this athletics program, men's basketball program and the community of northern Nevada — not to mention the national exposure that we get for our institution because of the success we've had," she said.
Fox suggested he received a commitment to improve the school's athletic facilities.
"It's a very exciting day for me and my family," said Fox, a native of Garden City who has two children with his wife, Cindy, an assistant athletic director at the school.

STATE STADIUM
James A. Finlev/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
A view of the new Busch Stadium, home of the St. Louis Cardinals, with a portion of the St. Louis skyline and the Gateway Arch in the background. The Cardinals played their 2006 season home opener against the Milwaukee Brewers breaking in their new $365 million ballpark on Monday with a 6-4 win.
Quirky field for Cards
ST. LOUISE — Jim Edmonds stepped into a Tomo Ohka pitch and lashed it down the right field line, over the head of Geoff Jenkins and off the wall.
Standup double, right?
BY JIM SALTER
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Not even close. Edmonds rounded first and wisely stopped there.
The ball had caromed right back to jenkins, and his throw to second would have beaten Edmonds by five steps.
Welcome to the new Busch Stadium.
Until Monday, when the Cardinals broke in the new $365 million ballpark with a 6-4 win over Milwaukee, the team had been on the new field only once — during a frigid Sunday workout on April 2, the day before the season-opener in Philadelphia.
One thing's for sure: The outfield fence has a trampoline-like effect — the balls comes off hard and fast.
So it will be a while before even home team understands all of the nuances and quirks of the new Busch.
"It kind of bounced off pretty hard so I didn't really know," Edmons said. "I didn't want to get thrown out."
Also obvious from Monday's game was the sunshine factor, especially for outfielders. On a cloudless day with a game that started at 3:10 p.m., center fielders in particular had to use their gloves to help shade the sun from their eyes. By game's end, right fielders, too, were battling the glare.
"It's tough to see later in the game both offensively and defensively," said Jenkins, who dropped a short fly ball for an error in the second. "Me and
Brady (center fielder Brady Clark) had the sun in our eyes for five or six innings. It was really tough."
Cardinals manager Tony La Russa noted that day games were no picnic for outfielders at the old Busch, either.
"There's a lot of pieces that remind you of the old Busch, especially in a 3 o'clock game to about 5 when you can't hardly see," La Russa said.
The dimensions of the new stadium are just a bit smaller than the old Busch, but the biggest difference is outside the playing field. The old Busch was a round, concrete circle, completely enclosed except for the top.
The new stadium has a large open section in center and leftcenter, allowing more air to circulate. It should keep things cooler during the stifling summer heat and humidity.

BASEBALL
Group shows team support at home
100%
Carly Pearson/KANSAN
Brian Bender, Overland Park sophomore, shouts during Tuesday night's baseball game at Hoglund Ballpark. Bender is a well-known heckler at Kansas home games.
BY RANDALL SANDERS
sports@kansan.com
KANSAN Guest Writer
"Baseball doesn't get the fan support that basketball and football do, so we do the best we can to let the team know we support them," Brian Bender said. The Overland Park sophomore is widely acknowledged by members of the group as the ringleader. Bender and the rest of the self-proclaimed becklers take their work seriously.
For most of the crowd at Hoglund Ballpark, "root, root, root for the home team" is a lyric from baseball's anthem. For a small group of students in the bleachers along the third base line, it's a mission statement.
“Before the games, I print out statistics, pages from the other team's media guide — whatever I need to prepare.” Bender said.
Bender distributes the information he finds to the fans around him, including bits from each player's media guide page. Together, fans in the section bellow their support of the home team and their
The heckling ranges from banging on the bleachers in time with shouts of "Let's go Jayhawks!" to shouting at opposing players about their hobbies and statues.
general disapproval of the visitors.
Two players in particular got the full treatment during the Texas Tech series: freshman outfielder Roger Kiesnick and freshman infielder Willie Rueda.
"We did a good job during the Missouri series, and we really stepped it up during the Texas Tech series. We had a lot of fun with Roger and his great smile and Willie and his kid size and all those guys." Bender said "And this North Dakota State team, everyone's biography says they like video games. It's too easy sometimes."
The hecklers maintain that it's not all about making the other team feel unwelcome. It's also about supporting the home team.
"This is a passionate team, and we love watching them," Dave MacKay, Shawnee senior, said. "We have a lot of respect for these guys and the energy they bring to the field that emu-
lates from coach Price."
The team's loyal fans said increased fan support like theirs would help the team immensely.
For MacKay, part of the draw is the intimacy of the sport and Hoglund Ballpark.
"If baseball got the fan support that basketball and football do, like the team got during the Wichita State game, the school would have to expand Hoglund," Erick Walker, Houston freshman, said.
"The park is small enough that we know the players from both sides can hear us." MacKay said. "And I don't mean any disrespect to the basketball players, but I can strike up a conversation with Matt Baty if I run into him outside the park. You can't do that with the players from the other sports."
Whatever their reasons, most of the group agrees: it's all about the players and letting them know that they have low, unwavering fans.
Defeat
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
The sophomore right-hander threw just two outs, but the Bison would not allow another run for the next six innings while the Jayhawk offense ceased to a halt.
"The players go out there and do all the work," Bender said. "We're just trying to support them."
Edited by Lindsey St. Clair
Sophomore right-hander Shane Bushland's longest outing before Tuesday's game was just over two innings. On Tuesday, he tossed seven innings against the Jayhawks, allowing just one run and three hits.
What hurt in the end was their defense. The Bison committed six errors on Tuesday night.
"Baseball's a weird game," Baty said. "We hit the ball pretty hard, it was just going right at guys. We didn't have our best stuff tonight, and we got down pitching early. But when you come back and win a game, that shows a little character."
Kansas, however, returned the sloppy play and racked up three errors.
"We came out really flat tonight, and it showed," Czyz said. "We're lucky to be walking out of here with a win, kind of an embarrassing way to go into this weekend."
The Jayhawks play the Bison at 3 p.m. at Hogglund Ballpark.
Injury Update
Sophomore second baseman Ryne Price will undergo surgery on his wrist on Friday to repair a broken hammock bone. Coach Ritch Price said his son could be back as early as two weeks.
Senior first baseman Jared Schweitzer is expected to be back in the lineup this weekend against Oklahoma State. Schweitzer dislocated his shoulder at Wichita State on April 5.
Edited by Lindsey St. Clair
Fans
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
Both agreed that the intimacy between the fans and players set Kansas baseball above men's basketball and football, but they really loved Kansas baseball for different reasons.
"It's KU and baseball; put that together and I'm in heaven," Bender said.
MacKay said the members of the team were what he liked most about Kansas baseball. He said Price was an inspirational coach and all the players showed tremendous passion every time they took the field. MacKay said that if Kansas basketball fans were the "Sixth Man," then Kansas baseball fans were the "Tenth Man."
Although Tuesday's comeback may rank high on their list of Kansas baseball memories
this season, both singled out Kansas' 3-2 victory against Missouri on April 4 as their favorite Kansas baseball moment of the year.
"So far, it's got to be Erik Morrison's home run on the Saturday game against Mizzou and then John Allman making that circus catch to win the game," Bender said.
As for their expectations for the team in the postseason, neither tried to hide their travel plans for June to follow the team throughout the NCAA tournament.
"I'm going to be an optimist and say they're going all the way," MacKay said. "I don't think anybody can stop them. NCAA champs all the way."
"I've got family in Omaha," Bender said.

$100 Fee Cut likes turnout, not giving up
Vote gets 38 percent approval
BY FRED A. DAVIS III
fdavis@kansan.com
STAFF WRIST MARKET
Dennis Chanay didn't expect to win the student senate presidential race. He didn't even vote for himself.
Chanay was even more estatic about the overall voter turnout and thought his referendum had something to do with it.
Chanay's coalition, $100 Fee Cut, was strictly a publicity stunt to gain attention for his and vice-presidential nominee Jonathan Wilson's referendum that would cut $96 from each student's student fees for an entire school year.
62 percent voted against it and 38 percent for it — Chanay was pleased that the referendum received as much support as it did.
And while he lost his presidential bid — he told others not to vote for the coalition — and his referendum was defeated
"It's a lot better than I thought we'd do. I'm very happy with the turnout," Chanay, Paola sophomore, said
"It wasn't biking lanes bringing people out to vote," Chanay said. "People were offered something different this year." Twenty percent of students cast a ballot this year, a 33 percent increase from last year.
WWW.KANSAN.COM
Chanay, speaking from the Delta Force listening party, said that the 38 percent in favor of
the referendum was encouraging because it was on idea alone.
Chanay said that, outside of the debates and coverage his platform received from The University Daily Kansan, he and Wilson did nothing to push their referendum.
The referendum called for various student fee cuts, including cuts to the student health care fee and the student activity fee. Under Chanay's proposed referendum, $30 would have

been cut from the student health care fee and $7 from the student activity care fee.
Chanay, former Senate presidential candidate, is happy with $100 Fee Cut's referendum results, despite its failure. "This is a mandate to do it again," he said.
"We looked at each fee, and we could do without the pharmacy," Chanay said in reference to the health care fee cut. "Students are putting more money in than what they are getting out."

Chanay said it was time for that money to go back to the
Because of both the support his referendum received and the increase in overall voter turnout this year, Chanay is confident he'll run with his referendum again next year.
"This is a mandate to do it again. We'll refine and support our plan more, start earlier and use technology to get the message out."

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Jason Boots and Mel Horen, presidential and vice presidential candidates of Ignite, stood at 75th Street Brewery surrounded by a sea of supporters staring up at the television screen as election results were announced.
Both held tight to their wine glasses as the announcer made his way through the long list of winners.
Finally, they heard their names called as the new student body president and vice president.
The two hugged in celebration as their friends and fellow Ignite candidates raised their glasses and cheered.
"It's just exhilation," Boots said. "I'm a pretty calm and even guy so I wasn't bouncing off the walls, but I was bouncing off the
walls in my brain."
Of the student population, 20 percent voted in this year's Student Senate elections. That number is up from the 15 percent who voted last year.
Boots said he was looking forward to today when he planned to sleep until 2 p.m. and then get up to do his taxes. He said the election was a challenging process and he was glad it was over.
"I don't like pimping myself, and I don't like talking about myself," he said. "So going through an entire campaign where I have to sit there and say nothing but good things about myself is actually very hard for me."
Horen said when she heard her name announced, she felt excited yet relieved at the same time.

What do you think of the debate regarding immigration reformation?

Daniel Portillo, Paraguay sophomore
"It is a very complicated issue. People need to analyze all the sides of the debate. They need to put themselves in the shoes of the immigrants who come over here in search of a better life and are mostly honest people."
"I'm against illegal aliens coming into the United States because they are breaking the law, but the problem with sending them back is you are sending 12 million people who work the jobs that no one else wants."
Bleir Tudas, Leawood freshman
"I really think that they should help the immigrant students that are motivated in seeking an education." Kearne, Jimenez, Mexico for Obama.
Karina Jimenez, Mexico freshman
Dennis Heller
"We should make the process of becoming an American citizen faster and more efficient, which in turn would decrease the number of illegal immigrants and raise the minimum wage."

ERIE, Pa. — A laid-off city worker has taken an unconventional approach to finding a job -- posting an ad on a billboard.
Mary Witt, 48, has been looking for full-time work since December, when she was laid off from her City Hall secretarial job.
She sought help from employment agencies and scoured Internet sites and newspapers looking for full-time work, all to no avail.
Her husband, Tim, came up with the billboard idea. He said, "The money, to be honest, was an issue. But I just thought it would get her out there."
They paid $600 for a 10-foot-tall, 22-foot wide billboard. It includes a photograph of a smiling Mary and the words: "Mary W. Administrative Assistant Looking for Employment." It will be up for a month.
"It's hard out there. That's what I want people to know," she said. "I've worked almost nonstop since I was 17 years old. I'm a worker. I don't want to sit at home."

ODDS AND ENDS Coin-operated laundry crook caught on camera
ELKO, Nev. — A man accused of burglarizing a coin-operated laundry figured he made a clean escape over the weekend when he took off with the store's six video surveillance cameras.
It turns out he left behind some rather compelling evidence — the video machine and videotape that recorded his face each time he stood in front of the cameras at the Southside Laundry.
Even if the portraits were a little fuzzy, police said they would have been able to easily identify the suspect. They said he was wearing cowboy chaps and a trench coat.Police are still working to recover the missing cameras.
Police said they came away with several close-ups of the suspect, Robert Lynn White, 52, whom they arrested on suspicion of grand larceny.

Culture sharing at World Expo
Students prepare for global event
BY ANNE WELTMER
aweltmer@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
University of Kansas students and members of the Lawrence community will have the opportunity to travel around the world in a matter of hours without leaving the Kansas Union.
The International Student Association's World Expo will be held from noon to 5 p.m. Friday at the Kansas Union Ballroom. The expo is one of two main events in the organization's annual International Awareness Week.
"Even though KU has so many international students, they don't usually interact with American students." Burduli said. "It's really hard for those two groups to connect."
Giorgi Burduli, Tbilisi, Republic of Georgia, sophomore and ISA public relations officer, said the event was his favorite because international students got to share their culture with the entire community instead of just each other.
The University of Kansas has 1,575 international students from 105 countries, according to University Relations. The World Expo will feature 50 of those countries.
Each exhibit will be different. Burdul said some would include slide shows, maps, posters, flags and other artifacts from the country. Others would have national dishes to taste.
Farashta Sediqzad, Overland Park sophomore and ISA president, said she and her other Afghan friends would be doing an exhibit on Afghanistan. Sediqzad was born in Afghanistan.
stan, but because of the country's current situation, she has not been back since she was 3 or 4 years old. She said she liked to travel and learn about other cultures, so the World Expo would be a "mini-vacation" for her. She also said she liked to share her culture with other students.
"I think a lot of American students, a lot of my friends, don't really get the opportunity to travel outside the U.S." she said. She wanted to show them what it was like to be in her country.
Last year, she said many people asked about her thoughts about the war on terror, and she said she was against all war. She saw the exhibit as a way to "set them straight" on what was happening in Afghanistan.
Burduli said the event wasn't just for American KU students but for the community, and other international students. He said he learned a lot about other countries by wandering around the World Expo last year.
ISA expects attendance from local schools, the KU community and the Lawrence community. He said ISA had high turnout in previous years partially because of its advertising. He said it placed ads in The University Daily Kansan and the Lawrence Journal-World. He said the organization also had access to many of the list servers on campus because many of the group's members are also involved in other clubs.
The other main event of the week, the Festival of Nations, will be from 7 to 9 p.m. Friday at the Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union.

Josh Broger, Chicago freshman, Jay Gordon, Houston freshman and Eryan Cohen, Tulsa, OK senior, dip greens in salt water during the Passover Seder put on by KU Hillel on Wednesday evening. The salt water symbolizes tears of oppression and the bitterness of slavery, while the greens symbolize spring and hope. Passover Seder is a meal and sit-down service combined that is meant to tell the story of the Jewish Exodus from Egypt. The Seder service is a traditional series of rituals performed in order and is led from a Hagadah, the traditional Passover prayer book. The rituals all relate to aspects of the Exodus. "I like going to the Seder because it reminds me of who I am. When you're on a college campus your thoughts kind of wander around and it helps me get back to who I am," Gordon said.
SPEAKERS
Transgender women speak
BY MELINDA RICKETTS
mricketts@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFFER WRITER
Most people would not, given the choice, subject themselves to expensive, painful surgeries and the risk of losing their spouses, losing their friends and estrangement from their children. That is, however, exactly what the three women who spoke at Transgender 101 on Wednesday evening did.
They spoke, along with an attorney, about issues and challenges regarding gender identity and expression during the panel discussion.
Donna Rose, the main speaker and a transgender advocate, lived her life as a man until she was 40, when a series of events forced her to confront her gender identity. One of the main things that forced her to evaluate her identity was the death or her father.
"Sex, in my vernacular, is the physical representation of which gender you are," she said. "It's a pretty simple equation. Penis, boy. No Penis, girl."
From Rose's perspective diversity is a good thing, and she doesn't understand why people have the desire to put other people in boxes. She said a lot of people asked her if being a transgender meant she was homosexual, or if she was transgender because she preferred to wear women's clothes.
Rose said that was when she realized that being a transgender person was not something that needed to be "cured or handled."
She said that when she saw him in the casket she realized that his physical body was just a shell, and what was really him was all the memories and experiences she shared with him.
"To me, to think that sexuality has to do with being trans will lead you down a path where you'll never understand it," she said. "Sexuality doesn't have anything to do with being trans, being trans doesn't have anything to do with sexuality."
Rose said the most painful part of the change was losing her family. For a while they wouldn't speak to her at all. She gained, however, a renewed appreciation of who she was.
"Now when I think about death and I think about laying there and wondering if I have any regrets, I'm confident that the answer is no," she said.
Jamie Tyroler, another transgender woman on the panel, said that gender roles were thrust on people before they were born and could be constraining.
"One of the things that really came home to me in this process is that the concepts of male and female are so limiting and really don't make a lot of sense, when you think about it," she said.
Donna Ross, the third member of the panel, had her transition chronicled in the local media. Because she was a hockey announcer at the time, she knew she would have to face the public.
She said that facing all the difficulties that she did, many people thought she was out of her mind. Like the other members of the panel, she realized, however, that her gender transition brought her closer to her true identity.
"I'm not out of my mind. I was out of my body, and now I'm correct," she said.

No arrests made in kidnapping

INDEPENDENCE — Police and the FBI continued efforts Wednesday to find out what happened to a high school girl who showed up unharmed at a stranger's home more than 15 hours after reporting she had been kidnapped.
There are no suspects and no arrests have been made in the case. At a news conference Wednesday morning, Independence Police Chief Lee Bynum released the transcript of a 911 call that Kelsey Lynn Stelting, 16, made Tuesday morning, shortly after she disappeared from outside her home.
When the dispatcher asked what emergency she was reporting, Stelting responded: "I
have been kidnapped. I have been taken from in front of my house."
"I'm in a white van," she said. "I don't know which way I'm going. I can't see out."
Bynum said police believe Stelting was confronted by an armed man who ordered her to run about six blocks to a lumber yard, following her on foot, then forced her into the van.
In the 911 call, Stetling said: "I was told — he put a gun to my head, and he told me to run or he would shoot me and my family."
When the dispatcher asked if she knew the man, Stetling said: "I didn't see him. He came up behind me."
dence. He said the girl's cell phone had been taken from her, and neither it nor the van she said she was abducted in had been found.
Bynum said the 911 call was traced to a cell phone tower south and west of Independ-
On Tuesday night, Bynum said Kelsey walked up to a home in Independence just before 10 p.m.
"She's in good physical condition," he said. "She appears to be fine."
The teen was taken to police headquarters and to a hospital before being returned home.
As news that Stelting was found unharmed spread, friends and family members hugged and jumped up and down.
"For a split second you are overjoyed," said Lisa Wilson, her aunt. "And then fear sets in until they said the words, 'She's OK.'"

Ignite leaders won; now demand results
Editor's note: Students really interested in holding their student leaders accountable should cut this out and fill in the blanks. Not only does it help make elections more fun, it lets us see what these leaders say and if they can do it. Turn in completed forms to The University Daily Kansan next December to grade the candidates.
Issue: Student Senate election results
Stance: The Ignite coalition has a long road ahead of it to turn platforms into reality.
Dear (insert name of candidates here).
Congratulations on winning this year's Student Senate elections. Voter turnout of (insert low percentage here) helped win your presidential and vice-presidential positions in Student Senate.
Now you are charged with implementing (insert platform issue here). Students — and not just the ones who voted for you hope that you will follow through on the ideas your coalition ran on.
Now that your party at (insert place of election party here) is over, the real work begins. You said you were going to (insert most important platform issue here). No longer is that goal a piece of paper that (insert name of campaigner here) was handling out, it is the stated policy of you, our student leaders.
We expect (insert interesting platform idea here) to happen, and if it doesn't it could be your fault.
Hopefully, (insert coalition name here) will be able to make this a better campus for students.
Good luck.
Sincerely, The University Daily Kansan.

Condeming religious leader not the right of city officials
COMMENTARY
T. S. FREEMAN
Recently, William Cardinal Levada, prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of Faith, made clear the Catholic Church's teaching on placing children up for adoption with homosexual couples. Referencing a 2003 document issued by the Vatican, he said in an e-mail correspondence with Maurice Healy, a spokesman for the Archdiocese of San Francisco, "Catholic agencies should not place children for adoption in homosexual households ... The reasons given in the document ... require that a Catholic bishop follow this clear guidance from the Holy See in his oversight of Catholic diocesan agencies."
ANDREW SOUKUP opinion@kansan.com
We could go round and round about the morality of such adoptions, and we would probably never agree on an answer. But this is not really about the Church's social, moral or ethical teaching. Instead, it is about Resolution No. 0168-06, unanimously passed on March 21 by the San Francisco Board of Supervisors. The resolution — "urging Cardinal Levada to withdraw his directive to Catholic Chari-
Disregarding a church followed by more than one-sixth of the world's population, the resolution alleges the Vatican is a foreign power meddling in the "customs and traditions" of the city. Moreover, the resolution also calls the Church's teachings "hateful and discriminatory ... insulting and callous." The city's board of supervisors then goes on to insult a religious leader, calling Levada "decidedly unqualified as a representative of his former home city," as if he were elected for such a purpose.
It is really hard to believe that this kind of "hateful and discriminatory rhetoric" would
come from such a supposedly tolerant and accepting city as San Francisco. As bad as they may feel the Vatican's directive is, the city nonetheless has no right to dictate how any particular religion administers its internal workings. That is, after all, what we in America like to call freedom of religion.
Even beyond the religious freedom aspect, there lies something much more immediate and to the point. In Boston, Catholic Charities is getting out of the adoption business altogether rather than compromise its ethical and moral principles by complying with new state anti-discrimination laws. Special interest groups in San Francisco and Boston may win political victories supporting their causes, but how many children will they hurt in the end by prolonging their stay in the foster-home system? Are the public adoption agencies ready to pick up the slack? That issue has yet to be addressed by the cities of San Francisco and Boston.

▼ LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Sexual assault not dismissable
I am writing in response to the ill-informed, unabashed dismissal of sexual assault found in The University Daily Kansan on April 11 2006. Writers claimed that sexual assault was a "non-issue" here at the University of Kansas. Try telling the 36 victims of sexual assault for the years 2002-2004 that this is a "non-issue," or how about the silent victims that make up approximately $58\%$ of sexual assault cases, and the estimated $70\%$ of co-eds who will experience sexual assault in one form or another here at the University of Kansas. Or, how about the victim of a reported sexual assault the day after the commentary was printed?
We could even make it more personal and narrow it down to one victim who experienced sexual harassment from her professor for four months to receive
only a pathetic, mandatory letter of apology and nothing more because the Professor had tenure.
Tell these people that it is a "non-issue," that it is something only in their imaginations created out of "excessive fear and concern." That the comments of "whore" and sexual innuendos are nothing more then jokes that every collegiate coming into the College of Liberal Arts & Sciences at the University should expect.
you can turn to as your defense, for both the accused and accuser?
Sexual assault is a serious issue that should be addressed even if only one person experiences it here at the University. Imagine if one of those 36 were your sister, your girlfriend, boyfriend (yes it happens to boys too) or yourself. Just because it hasn't happened yet doesn't mean that it won't. If — and when — it does happen, wouldn't it be nice to know that you have specific guidelines that
Furthermore, creating a specific set of guidelines would not "limit the ability" to decide punishment. It would make punishment an objective process, which would make it more legitimate than what we have now. "The legitimacy of the process" is not "detracted" when it is limited, but rather when it does not fulfill its purpose. That purpose, as seen in the previous examples, has not been fulfilled. Therefore creating such a standard that would specify exactly what sexual assault is and what the consequences are — for both staff and student — is not only legitimate, but necessary for student's safety and well being.

COMMENTARY
LIZ STUEWE
opinion@kansan.com
When I tell people that I am a political science major I get one of two reactions; the standard — if not completely sincere — "good for you," or a blank look, which is usually followed by a predictably bitter comment about all politicians being crooks and big corporations making all the important decisions. Politics has gained a bad reputation with the youth of America. And the reputation might be well deserved, but that doesn't mean we can't do anything about it.
The best thing we, as college students, can do to create change in America is wholeheartedly support those ideas and politicians and bills that strive to make America better and stronger.
I believe cooperation among people of all political persuasions is the key to overcoming those things that make college students bitter about politics today: Things such as the cost of education, whispers of a possible draft and lack of respect from politicians.
Therefore, I would like to wholeheartedly support the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics right here at the University of Kansas and applaud the institute for bringing speakers to campus who help us understand the problems facing our country and giving us practical advice we can use to help fix these problems.
Former U. S. Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle (D-S.D.) spoke Monday night at the Dole Institute of Politics' 2006 Dole Lecture. Former Senators Daschle and Bob Dole (R-Kan.) represent the bipartisan cooperation that is possible if we just try. Daschle's words were inspiring and challenging, but even more important is the example he set by agreeing to speak at the Dole Institute's flagship event. The two men occupied leadership positions in opposing parties for years, but still maintain a friendly and cooperative relationship. Politics does not naturally lend itself to powerful, personal, partisan bickering. Although by just viewing popular media sources, you would never know.
Do yourself a favor and expose yourself to the positive side of politics at the Dole Institute, and if you are still bitter and dissatisfied about the current state of American politics, make a change. Make a change by supporting the ideas, politicians, bills and everything else that is created in the spirit of cooperation.
Stuewe is a Lawrence sophomore in political science and American studies.

Voters OK referendums
Multicultural education enhancement gets boost
BY ANNE WELTMER
aweltmer@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
The referendum supporting multicultural education enhancement has passed with 55 percent of the vote.
The referendum was proposed by a group of KU student senators from Student Senate's multicultural affairs committee. It was drafted to fund any group's event that would help increase multicultural awareness on campus.
"I'm really excited. It says the University is dedicated to multicultural education," said Hannah Love, Dodge City sophomore and one of the authors of the referendum.
Love said the $1.50 per semester and 75 cents during the summer term would generate about $70,000 per year. It will be given on an event-to-event basis, rather than to certain groups.
Love said, for example, any group that holds an activity that contributes to the diversity of campus can apply for funds. However, a cultural student group will not receive funds for activities that solely benefit their own group.
Robert Page Ir., director of the
Office of Multicultural Affairs, said the office would not receive any funding from the program, but he was a big supporter. He said the referendum was a bipartisan student initiative to give student organizations funding to help spread diversity on campus
This funding will be available to groups on top of the funding level already provided by Senate. Right now, Senate funds the first $1,000 of an event, and then 50 percent of the remainder. This would provide up to an additional 25 percent of the event's needed funding.
Budget approval excites teams

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Non revenue and women's sports got the budget boost they were hoping for after University of Kansas voters passed referendum no. 2, a $20 per semester fee raise from full-time University students. The referendum passed with a 61 percent vote.
There is also a $10 fee raise for the summer semester. According to the Athletics Department, the fee increase would mean an extra $1 million, which would be devoted solely to nonrevenue and women's sports.
The big winner with the referendum is the women's rowing team. Currently, the team houses its equipment in a fenced area, nicknamed "The Cage." One of the first things this new money will go to is a boat house for the rowers.
"We're ecstatic," team captain Paige Phillips, Plano, Texas, senior said. "Everyone just jumped in the air. It is a relief that we did it. We worked so hard to do this."
Phillips said the new facility would house the boats and equipment. It also will have a locker room and be home to club crew.
"We get to leave "The Cage" and get our boat house," Phillips said. "We're going to go a locker room rather than a couple Porta Potties."
Jin Marchiony, associate athletics director, said this was a big victory for non revenue and women's sports. He said this
was a long time in the making.
"It was a well-thought-out vote." Marchiony said. "It was a vote of confidence for the non revenue sports and athletics department."
Kristin Buehler, Kansas City, Mo. sophomore and volleyball player, said there was a lot of support and work done by revenue and non revenue athletes.
"We really had to bond together," Buehler said. "I think it's going to be a good deal. It's going to help out a ton."
Both Phillips and Marchiony said it was good to see student support for non revenue and women's sports. Buehler and Marchiony said the vote showed there was support for athletes not often in the limelight.

vote tally was announced. The supporters also reacted favorably to the failure of the fee cut, which Delta Force had campaigned against. Red Corn credited Overland Park sophomore Aaron Olsen with helping defeat the fee cut. Olsen ran the Delta Force Web site, and created a site dedicated to the failure of the fee cut. It was an example of how Delta Force found a way to campaign on a limited budget.
"This isn't about money," Red Corn said. "This is about these people kicking ass. This is better than anything I've ever been a part of."
He listened to the announcement huddled together with Franklin and the other candidates as they swayed arm-inarm in the home's living room.
The two said they had become close through the days of campaigning.
"We're kind of like an old married couple now," Franklin said. "We argue sometimes."
"We argue all the time," Red Corn added with a laugh.
However, the smiles were few and far between for Red Corn and Franklin, but they remained upbeat as the other candidates and supporters thanked them for their work.
"I never knew how close I'd become to these guys," Jesse Haught, Achieton junior, said. "Studie and Bridget were inspiring. They brought out the best in a lot of people."
Haug was successful in his bid for a seat as a College of Liberal Arts and Sciences junior/senior senator. Delta Force finished with 16 seats in the senate, with the graduate seats not yet counted. The presidential vote of 47 percent was the most since 2001, when justin Mills became the only Delta Force member to win the presidency. As the final results were announced, some of the candidates filed into the kitchen, where they made cell phone calls to let others know how they had done. Others turned the living room back into a dance floor. By the end of the night, everyone seemed ready to heed Franklin's request that "no matter what happens, we've got to finish the beer."
They had to.

She said she was looking forward to getting the new semester started, but for now she was looking forward to going home and celebrating the Jewish holiday of Passover with her family.
Boots said that going into the election he was worried about what the outcome would be.
He said both coalitions had good platforms and were running strong campaigns.
"I've been here for four years, and this is my fourth campaign and I hadn't really seen that much activity from other coalitions in years," he said.
Amy Bainum, Dover senior and friend of Boots, said she was really excited when she heard Boots had won.
"He worked his butt off for
this, and I know it's something he's really cared about for all four years he's been at the University," Bainum said. "It was kind of a big lofty goal of his, and it paid off — all his hard work."
Boots said it was incredible that so many people showed up to support the coalition. Everyone there was really excited about what the coalition had planned for the future, he said.
"It's really humbling to know this many people care about you." Boots said.
Andrew Payne, Garden City junior and Ignite supporter, said that Boots and Horen deserved to win because of all their hard work.
"They were the right candidates for the job, and I'm excited for next year," Payne said.

Baseball remains the king of sports
BRIAN WACKER
bwacker@kansan.com
As a native of St. Louis — the home of the educated and dedicated baseball fan — I've never quite understood the average Kansas City sports fan's aversion to baseball.
Now before all of you football and basketball fanatics roll over in your Barcaloungers, hear me out. I've compiled a list of what I believe are the quintessential factors that make a sport great. In each category, baseball reigns supreme. [Note: I'm limiting my criticisms to football and basketball because they are the two of the three other most prominent sports in America. I won't criticize NASCAR because I'm writing a column, not an encyclopedia.]
No other sport in America holds as much history and tradition as baseball. The Cincinnati Red Stockings became the first professional, salaried baseball team in 1869. The National Association of Professional Baseball Players formed two years later. Not too many old-time football or basketball players can reminisce about what life was like under the Grant presidency.
Tradition:
Whether it's the relatively slow and complex pace of the average baseball game or the relatively slow and complex neurological activities of the average Kansas City sports fan, there has to be a reason why they haven't been able to fully embrace one of the few truths that this humble columnist knows: baseball is the greatest sport on Earth.
This one is no contest. Base-
ball's most revered stadiums
Venues:
— Fenway Park, Wrigley Field and Yankee Stadium — were all built before the Great Depression. (Allen Fieldhouse, basketball's Mecca, wasn't built until 10 years after the Second World War), Fans and tourists alike flock to these stadiums, not just to watch baseball, but to experience history. The other great facet of baseball venues, which really only golf shares, is that each venue has its own dimensions and its own character. While every basketball net is 10 feet tall and every football field is 100 yards long, baseball fields have characteristics all their own. Think of Fenway Park's Green Monster or Minute Maid Park's grassy knoll.

Once again, a lack of offense doomed the Kansas softball team, losing 4-0 on the road to Missouri Wednesday night.
Kansas (21-20, 2-6) was a one-hit by Missouri pitcher Jen Bruck and managed six base runners in the game.
"I'm really very disappointed with our team's effort today," Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said. "We weren't very good in any phase of the ball game and our focus and intensity just wasn't there."
The Jayhawks struggled to find a rhythm offensively or defensively, committing one error and misplaying several bunts, allowing one to become a double. The team's bats were silent for most of the night, except for its lone hit in the fourth inning.

Kansas squandered a chance to take the lead in the top of the fourth, leaving the bases loaded. Senior second baseman Jessica Moppin recorded the Jayhawks' first hit with her double, followed by an intentional fall of senior designated player Serena Settleier. Freshman center fielder Stevie Crisosto drew a two-out walk, loading the bases. A strike out by senior left fielder Nettie Fierros ended the immin-

Kansas builds lead, hangs on late

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Standing on second, Preston Land was serenaded by his fans.
The freshman first baseman turned 19 yesterday, and if his second-inning double wasn't enough of a present, the fans' rendition of "Happy Birthday" from the third base bleachers and an 8-5 victory against the North Dakota State Bison probably helped.
"It's always good to have fans here, especially when they know it's your birthday." Land said of his personal singing telegram. "It means they actually pay attention to the players."
Freshman Nick Cazy (1-1)
racked up a pair of strikeouts in
the opening inning of Wednesday's victory. The victory was his first as a jayhawk. He started Wednesday afternoon's game in nearly the same fashion in which older brother Don ended Tuesday night's game. Nick Czyz, however, had more time to work with and by the end of the third inning, he had sent down seven Bison (2-26) batters on strikes, the most strikeouts in a single outing from a Kansas (24-13, 6-6) pitcher this season.
KU
Cczy didn't stop there. After just five innings on the hill, he tallied nine strikeouts and surrendered one base hit.
"I don't really pay attention to the strikeouts that much," Czyz said. "Honestly, I don't think I pitched as well as I could have."

Sizing up the quarterbacks

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
With the Annual Spring Game just two days away, the quarterback position was still up for grabs on the Kansas football team. Still, most signs pointed to redshirt freshman Kerry Meier leading the quarterback competition against senior Adam Barmann, freshman Todd Reesing, and incoming freshman Tyler Lawrence.
"When you watch the game, I think you'll realize who the
PETER R. BRYN
No. 1 quarterback is going to be. If you want some official announcement, I'll do it after the spring game, but we know where we're at and it's pretty obvious."
Barmann
coach Mark Mangino said
Last year, Kansas had a quarterback carousel rotating between Barmann and Brian Luke before Jason Swanson locked down the starting position, eventually leading the Jayhawks to a Fort Worth Bowl victory.
Reesing
Mangino said he didn't want to
sale anyone out for the position.
"I don't want to sell anybody short because we have a history
of using more than one quarterback," Mangino said. "The guys who've been around a while, they know that as well as anybody."
The team will try to settle into a three-deep quarterback rotation before next season.
Mangino said they were pretty set on No. 1 and No. 2 so far this spring, but that the fall could determine No. 3.
Here's a look at what each quarterback — Meier, Barnmann and Reesing — has going for and against him:

110 athletes ready to compete

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
The 79th annual Kansas Relays will be a week from today, April 20 to 22, at Memorial Stadium. The GOLDZONE II event will take place Saturday, April 22 from 2 to 5 p.m.
Tim Weaver said he felt like a late-night commercial salesman at a press conference on Wednesday, announcing the athletes competing at the Kansas Relays.
"How much would you pay to see 2004 Olympic gold medalist Justin Gatlin perform in front of your very eyes? Not only can you see Gatlin, but we'll also throw in 2000 Olympic medalist Maurice Greene with no extra cost," Weaver, Relays meet director, said.
Along with those two attractions, Weaver announced the list of 110 athletes set to compete at GOLD-ZONE II. There will be 35 Olympic athletes — 11 of them medalists —
14 world champion medalists, eight U.S. champions, 19 NCAA champions and 34 other major championship winners who will compete at the GOLDZONE II event.
Kansas track and field coach Stanley Redwine, and All-American seniors Charisse Bacchus and Sheldon Battle accompanied Weaver at
The 79th annual Kansas Relays will be a week from today, April 20 to 22, at Memorial Stadium. The GOLDZONE II event will take place Saturday, April 22 from 2 to 5 p.m.
"Never has there been a collection of athletes to compete in an event like this in this part of the nation." Weaver said.
the press conference. Bacchus saos aside from competing in front of a home crowd, she was looking forward to watching the international athletes compete.
"The good atmosphere will give extra adrenaline and can help produce some big throws," Battle said
There will be at least 24 nations competing at the Kansas Relais.
Bacchus will likely compete in the long jump, hurdles and the 4 x 10 meter run. Battle, competing in his second and last Relays as a member of the Kansas track and field team, said he was looking forward to the atmosphere that would be surrounding Memorial Stadium.
Battle is likely to compete in the shot put, discus and hammer.
Redwine seemed the most excited about the coming attractions.
"I'm a track nut, so I can't wait to see all the events," Redwine said. "Every event is loaded."
The goal this year for the GOLD-ZONE II is to break the attendance record of 32,000, set in 1972 when Kansas' own Jim Ryun raced the mile.
"Not many people can travel to an Olympic Games or world championship meet, so we're importing the action to Kansas for an April afternoon." Weaver said. "I expect the size of the crowd to be every bit as impressive as the performances on the track."

Both venues force the players to adapt to new surroundings, affecting how they'll approach the game on offense and defense. How many points do you think most basketball players would score if they had to shoot on 14-foot hoops half of the time?
Kids don't grow up playing in their backyards pretending they're kicking 47-yard field goals as time expires or practicing how to foul the worst free-throw shooter on the opposing team in the last minute of regulation.
They pretend they're batting with two outs in the bottom of the ninth with the bases loaded. With baseball, a kid doesn't need to be seven feet tall or be able to run a 4.3 second 40-yard dash.
The teams will even serenade you as you stretch.
Kids:
In the end, professional sports are all about the fans. And baseball is the most fan-friendly sport.
Fat or skinny, short or taut, baseball affords every kid a real shot at making it big if he has the right work ethic. Just ask Babe Ruth.
Unlike professional basketball, where any fan in the bottom section of the arena is too rich to show up on time, and professional football, where most teams don't have the common courtesy to keep their fans warm during the game, baseball treats its fans like royalty.
The game has a built-in break in the middle of the seventh inning so fans can have a nice, invigorating stretch, without having to risk missing any of the action.
Fans:
So there you have it: my foolproof theorem which should prove to you, once and for all, why baseball is the greatest sport on Earth.
That is if you could only forget that little steroid problem.

Coach's contract extended
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WICHITA — Wichita State rewarded Mark Turgeon with a big raise and a 10-year contract extension for leading the Shockers to the NCAA regional semifinals for the first time since 1981.
The contract, signed Tuesday, provides a base salary of $750,000 per year, raising Turingen's annual salary by $290,000 and making him one of the highest-paid coaches in the Missouri Valley Conference.
It supersedes an extension he signed last year, which ran through 2010.
"It's a sizable increase, that's for sure," said Athletic Director Jim Schaus, who confirmed the contract numbers first published Tuesday on The Wichita Eagle's Web site.
"I think it's indicative of our willingness to make a long-term commitment."
Turgeon announced Monday that he was staying at Wichita State.
The Omaha World-Herald has reported that Creighton's Dana Altman's base salary is between $700,000 and $800,000, but Creighton is a private school and does not have to disclose salaries.
Turgeon, 41, led Wichita State to a 26-9 record and the Valley regular-season conference title last season.
Turgeon's contract does not include extra money he can make through incentives, speaking engagements, camps and broadcast media packages.
The length of the contract Senus offered was a factor in Turgeon's decision to sign the extension, the coach said Tuesday.
The Shockers beat Seton Hall and Tennessee before falling to surprise Final Four team George Mason in the
regional semifinals.
"There's a lot of scrutiny on coaches these days, and it's yearround. Any time you can get security through a contract, it's nice," Turgeon said.
Assistant coaches Tad Boyle, Poon Williamson and Mike Rohn also will be rewarded for the Shockers' success, with each receiving a $10,000 annual raise, and Schaus said the athletic department would continue to look for ways to boost the basketball budget.
"Those are things we want to do for him." Schaus said. "As Mark's program has grown, we have continued to make a strong commitment to Mark and his program."
Quarterback
Kerry Meier (Redshirt freshman, 6-foot-3.210)
FOR — Coach Mangino said that, so far this spring, Meier had been taking all the snaps with the first team, which consisted of approximately 65-70 percent of the plays. His mobility could aid him in Kansas' offensive system. When the Jayhawks reached bowl games in 2003 and 2005 under coach Mark Mangino, both quarterbacks — Bill Whittemore and Jason Swanson — were able to scramble and make plays with their feet. Meier also comes from a football family. His older brother, Shad, played tight end for Kansas State and is now with the New Orleans Saints. Dylan, another older brother, is at Kansas State and started six games at quarterback for the Wildcats in 2004 before missing much of last season with an injury.
AGAINST — Goal-to-go plays. Meier showed this flaw during the spring practice in Topeka a week ago when Aqib Talbil picked off his pass in a goal line situation. Meier said that had been a problem even back in his high school playing days, but that he was willing to work on it so he could get past it.
PREDICTION — It is fairly obvious, based on Mangino's comments, that this is the No. 1 guy on the depth chart.
Adam Barmann (Senior, 6-foot-4.210)
FOR- Experience. Barmann has been the starter for the Jayhawks in the past. He started two games last season and eight games his sophomore year. He also has all the physical tools to be a starting quarterback in the Big 12.
AGAINST — Mental ability to run a football team. He has been known to make poor in-game decisions during crucial moments. He had a breakout game his freshman year against Texas A&M (294 passing yards and 4 touchdowns) but has yet to live up to expectations since then. Barmann lacks the mobility Meier and Reeing have, which has proven to be a key factor for a quarterback to have success with Mangino.
**MASSACHUSETTS**
PREDICTION — A veteran who has been around the offense for four years, Barmann should be a solid backup to the young Meier.
Todd Reissing (Freshman, 5-foot, 11, 190)
FOR — Graduated high school a semester early so he could practice with the team during spring drills. That will give him invaluable experience on the field. Reesing had a stellar high school career, winning 4A Player of the Year in Texas. He threw for 41 touchdowns and 5 interceptions his senior year at Lake Travis High School in Austin. Reesing is also a mobile quarterback that rushed for 750 yards and eight touchdowns last season.
AGAINST — Size. This has been the biggest question mark surrounding Reesing — whether his size will limit his abilities at the collegiate level. Both Meier and Barmann have the more stereotypical quarterback build. Reesing will also have to adjust mentally in order to recognize defenses, which are more complex in college.
PREDICTION — No. 3 as of now, but incoming freshman Tyler Lawrence may compete with him for the No. 3 spot. Lawrence, though, is a mystery, since he is still in high school.

Yankees beat Royals
BY MIKE FITZPATRICK THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Gary Sheffield homered and drove in four runs, and Shawn Chacon overcame a shaky start to earn his first victory of the season in the New York Yankees' 12-5 victory against the Kansas City Royals on Wednesday.
Jason Giambi had a pair of RBI doubles, Derek Jeter scored three times and Sheffield finished with three hits as New York tagged Royals starter Jeremy Affeldt (0-1).
The Yankees have scored in double digits three times in eight games this year, plus a 9-7 victory against Kansas City in their home opener Tuesday.
Reggie Sanders homered for the second consecutive day for the Royals, who dropped their 13th straight game at Yankee Stadium — a skid that dates to August 2002.
It is New York's longest home winning streak against any opponent since the Yankees won 19 in a row in the Bronx against the Cleveland Indians from 1960-62.
Chacon (1-1) allowed three runs in the first inning, then settled down. He gave up five runs and seven hits in six-plus innings, striking out five.
Sanders hit a two-run shot in the first, the first time the Royals scored first in seven games this season. Emil Brown added a two-out RBI double, twisting Johnny Damon around in deep center.
Chacon regrouped after that,
retiring 11 of his next 12 hitters.
Handed a 3-0 lead, Affeldt walked his first two batters, a cardinal sin that must have left Royals manager Buddy Bell and maybe even his own fielders stewing.
Sheffield smashed a vicious line drive that nearly nailed 60-year-old third base coach Larry Bowa, who quickly dove to the ground in foul territory just in time. Bowa turned to the crowd
and shrugged his shoulders as Sheffield smiled from the edge of the batters' box.
He drove the next pitch over the left-field fence for a three-run homer that tied the score. It was Sheffield's 451st career homer.
Alex Rodriguez singled, stole second and scored on Jorge Posada's two-out single in the third.
Sheffield added an RBI single in the fourth, and another run scored on Jimmy Gobble's wild pitch.
Kansas City cut it to 5- in the fifth on consecutive BRI doubles by Mark Grudzielanek and Doug Mientkiewicz, but New York got run-scoring singles in the bottom half from Miguel Cairo and Damon.
Giambi's run-scoring double in the sixth made it 9-5.
Jeter had a two-out RBI single in the seventh, a run scored on an error by shortstop Angel Berroa and Giambi delivered another RBI double.

Center signs with K-State
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
JACKSONVILLE — Jason Bennett, a 7-foot-3 center from Jacksonville, signed a national letter of intent Wednesday to play for Kansas State and new coach Bob Huggins.
He chose the Wildcats over Tigers, becoming the first player to join Huggins at Kansas State since he took the job last month.
conviction for drunken driving in 2004.
Huggins turned the Cincinnati Bearcats into a national power during 16 sometimes-stormy years, but he was out of work a year after the school refused to extend his four-year contract rollover following his arrest and
Bennett verbally committed to play at Cincinnati last year but decided to follow Huggins.
"I saw what they did with their big man as far as teaching him and helping him gain weight and get stronger," Bennett said during a signing ceremony at his high school. "Coach Huggins has gotten a lot of players to the NBA. I think he can get another one there."
Bennett averaged 12.5 points, 13 rebounds and eight blocks last season and led Arlington Country Day to a second consecutive Class 2A state championship.
"I know I have to improve my offense — my jump shot and my moves in the post," Bennett said. "I feel comfortable with where my defense is, but my scoring has to get better."
Bennett weighs 265 pounds, but said he would like to get to around 300 pounds in college. He also said he may only spend two years at K-State.
"I'm probably going to leave after my second year," he said. "It depends if I like college and it's fun and I'm doing good. Then I might stay another two years and get my degree. But if I leave early, I made a pact with my dad that I would earn my degree in the offseason."

You might be watching everything rapidly get out of control around you. Trying to rope in a situation or keep it from changing simply will not work. Go with the flow. Sooner than you think, you will know what to do.
Tonight: Easy does it.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) *****
You could be aghast at others' reactions,
and for good reason. Please understand
that you are not in the position to change
anything, as much as you might like to. Don't
channel your frustration into spending.
Tonight. Fun and games.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) **
Don't get dramatic about today's events, as tempting as it might be. You could feel much better if you simply relax and work through a problem. You will have the energy you need by tomorrow.
Tonight: The less said, the better.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★★★
Everyone seems to be playing a game of tug o' war. Somehow, you seem to be the object of everyone's attention. Though as a Leo you like being on center stage, you might find today a bit much. Choose your words with care.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) **
Holding on to your wallet or disciplining
your spending could take all the control you
have. Listen to someone you care about.
You might not like what he or she says, but
you need to hear it. Understand what is
happening.
Tonight. Your treat
night: Retreat as soon as you can.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ****** The Full Moon points to you and how to get the job done. If you are open to positive change, you will see life far more differently Your get-up-and-go will make a difference, though others will challenge you. Tonight: You are in power.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★★
Listen to others with a touch of cynicism.
Review a situation with an eye to changing what happens. News or information comes forward that encourages a new look. Revise your budget.
Tonight Listen well
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) *****
Others seem to be dislabeled, in a sense, or wandering. Yet at the same time, they are demanding. Though you want to think about the total picture, you also need to honor your needs. Listen, but don't feel as if you have to fix a situation.
Tonight: As always, happiest with your pals
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) **★**
You might feel as if everyone wants a part of you. Knowing how to call a halt to this situation might be important. Yes, it is also quite possible that you will incur others' rancor or upset. No one likes it when a given vanishes.
Tonight. Out late
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) *****
You could find that others act up in an extreme manner, forcing you to think. Consider your immediate crowd. Are they in harmony with who you are? Take a strong gander at what lies around you. You might opt for some changes.
Twelve Rules to good music
PISECS (Feb. 19-March 20) *****
Working with others means being reliable and more steady. For a while now, you have done the unexpected and headed in new directions. Investigate options that could appear on the horizon. Assume responsibility for your behavior.
Tonight in a whirlwind
Tonight: Relax to good music.

DURHAM, N.C. — A small group of boosters and others close to the Duke University lacrosse team has hired President Clinton's former lawyer as part of an aggressive public relations effort to argue that the players did not rape a woman at an off-campus party.
Bob Bennett, a former federal prosecutor and Washington attorney who represented Clinton in the Paula Jones sexual harassment case, is serving as a spokesman for a group calling itself the Committee for Fairness to Duke Families.
He is not expected to represent any players, but he has joined the chorus of those who fear for the reputation of the team and the university.
Duke University employee Meghan Feldmeyer, left, students Chee Hoe, center, and Vincent Agrawal hold hands during an interfaith prayer vigil for healing in the Duke and Durham communities at Duke University Chapel in Durham, N.C., on Wednesday. The vival was held in response to the recent events involving the Duke men's lacrosse team.
"It is unfortunate that members of the Duke community, players and families are being judged before all the facts are in," Bennett said in a statement. "A lot of innocent young people and the families are being hurt,
Duke supporters hire Clinton's ex-lawyer
BY TIM WHITMIRE THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The group has asked to meet with Duke President Richard Brodhead. Neither Brodhead nor Bennett returned calls for comment.
No charges have been filed while District Attorney Mike Nifong presses on with his investigation of allegations that a stripper was gang-raped at a party team March 13. Earlier this week, lawyers for the players said that DNA tests failed to connect any members of the 47-man team to the alleged attack.
The players' parents — initially silent — have also started to speak out.
Brian Loftus, who has two sons on the team, wondered Wednesday why Nifong was continuing to press ahead with the case.
and unfortunately this situation is being abused by people with separate agendas. It is grossly unfair, and cool heads must prevail."
"I don't understand it," said Loftus, of Syoset, N.Y.
As he has for days, Nifong
Devon Sherwood was not tested because he is black, and the alleged victim, a black woman, had said her attackers were white.
refused a request for an interview. He is running for re-election in May and was scheduled to take part in a candidate forum Wednesday evening.
The family of Devon Sherwood, a freshman goalie and the team's only black member, said the DNA results should have marked the end of the investigation of the highly ranked team. The Blue Devils played for last year's national title and were considered a favorite this season before Duke canceled the season.
I'm just glad that that ordeal is over with and hopefully as we progress with the case, it will show that all of the players will be exonerated ... of any wrongdoing at all," said Devon Sherwood's father, Chuck, of Freeport, N.Y.

Missouri State cuts
program, players upset
SPRINGFIELD, Mo. - Four Missouri State women's tennis players are suing the school for cutting their program as part of a reduction in university athletics, alleging the move violates federal Title IX rules that require equal treatment of male and female student athletes.
The lawsuit asks a federal
court to order the state's second-largest university to reinstate the women's tennis program and seeks a temporary injunction to keep the sport going after the planned shutdown at the end of this academic year.
Missouri State University decided in December to drop five of its 21 sports at the end of the school year to reduce athletics costs it said were growing faster than the university budget as a whole. It cut men's indoor and outdoor
track, men's cross country and men's and women's tennis.
The lawsuit seeks class-action status for all current and future women tennis players. It was filed by the American Civil Liberties Union in the name of four players who contacted the group. By cutting the five sports, Missouri State would save an estimated $350,000 annually in a budget that gets about $5 million from the university's general fund.

BASEBALL: 8-5
Czyz leads team to victory at home
Freshman sets strike-out record
BY SHAWN SHROYER
sshroyer@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTSWRIVER
On his third time starting, freshman left-hander Nick Czyz found his stride on the mound against North Dakota State, Wednesday.
"My curveball was on, today. That was one of the keys to my success." Czvz said.
Czyz (1-1) threw five shutout innings for Kansas, allowing just one hit and four walks in his first victory as a Jayhawk. As a result, several seldom-used pitchers were able to come in from the bullpen - freshmen Ryan Anthony, Carter Holt and Paul Smyth; sophomore Matt Lane; junior Ryotaro Hayakawa and senior Trev Randa.
In the third inning Czyz had two walks on eight straight pitches. He got back on track with two straight strikeouts.
Czyz not only ate up innings, he also struck out a Kansas season-high nine batters.
Kansas couldn't afford to use key members of its bullpen because of a series against Oklahoma State coming up this weekend.
"You need that one, really good outing to build on and hopefully he'll build on that outing today." Kansas coach Ritch Price said.
Czyz got off to a rocky start, however, walking leadoff man Greg Plecki on five pitches. Then a pickoff throw from Czyz got away from freshman Preston Land at first base and Plecki advanced all the way to third base.
Freshman pitcher Nick Czyz delivers against North Dakota State at Hoglund Ballpark Wednesday afternoon. Czyz earned his first victory as a Jayhawk, tossing five innings and allowing only one hit while walking four batters and striking out nine.
Four pitches and a strikeout later, Czyz was rolling. He got the next batter to ground out to sophomore third baseman Erik Morrison and got out of the inning by striking out senior outfielder Jared Sullivan, stranding Plecki on third.
One inning. two strikeouts.
gone down on strikes. Freshman catcher Cory Schwantes flew out to senior outfielder Gus Milner in right field to complete Czyz's first three-up, three-down inning.
"He just went in there and got after it," Morrison said. "He's made significant improvements since he got here in the fall."
Two innings, four strikeouts.
The second inning was a quick one for Czyz. After 10 pitches, two Bison batters had already
"You see potential, we never saw anything like that, but you see potential in the guys," Land said about whether the team had seen this kind of pitching from Czyz in practice.
KANSAS
In the third inning Czyz had two walks on eight straight pitches. He got back on track with two straight strikeouts of Plecki and Magedanz, but a single by the next batter loaded the bases. Czyz got Sullivan swinging to end the North Dakota State threat.
Three innings, seven strikeouts and the 2006 Kansas single-game strikeout watermark.
"I tried to tell myself to just calm down and not try to be too fine, throw the ball over the plate, let my stuff work," Czyz said.
Czyz faced the same Bison hitters in the fourth that he faced in the second and got the
same result. The trio went down in order again, except this time Swantwes struck out.
"They like to swing at a lot of first-pitch fastballs, I took that away," Czyz said on what he learned watching Tuesday's game.
Four innings, eight strikeouts.
Czyz's final inning began like his first — with a walk. But a flyout, strikeout and fielder's choice out at second base completed Czyz's day with no harm done.
Five innings, nine strikeouts and the record.
"Today I got my confidence," Czyz said. "Should be able to go out there and compete on the weekends now, too."

Baseball
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
Early in the game, the Jay hawks slowly built a lead. After taking his first day off this season on Tuesday, senior outfielder Gus Milner knocked in the first run in the bottom of the first.
Finally, in the bottom of the fourth, sophomore third baseman Erik Morrison tagged a ball over the left-field fence.
"I was surprised it was my first hit of the series," Morrison said, who had gone hitless in his 10 previous at bats. "We're a lot better team than we've showed the last few days, definitely."
Freshman catcher Buck Afenir teed off on his own home run the next inning, scoring Land in the process. The two-run shot came off of a pitch from right-hander Jay Mitchell. Afenir was the first batter Mitchell faced.
Afenir's blast highlighted a five-run fifth in which Kansas
After cruising through six innings, the Jayhawks' shutout was interrupted at the top of the seventh.
took an 8-0 lead, tearing the game wide open. Looking for a Kansas record 275th career hit, senior shortstop Ritchie Price walked instead. Regardless of how he reached base, Price was soon off the base paths when John Allman sliced a two-RBI single off the glove of Bison shortstop Charles Magedanz.
"As well as we've been playing—when we put up those five runs in the fifth — that's what we should be doing every inning," Land said. "But we can't do that in every inning. This is baseball."
After cruising through six innings, the Jayhawks' shutout was interrupted in the top of the seventh. Memories of Tuesday night's struggle emerged as the Bison scored in each of the final three innings, narrowing the lead to 8-5.
Coach Ritch Price said he was happy that Wednesday's game gave him a chance to get his young guys some playing time. Price played 21 of his 29 available players during the game in an effort to get his younger guys on the field. He also used seven different pitchers, contributing to the late innings Bison comeback.
Freshman lefty Ryan Anthony was tagged for three runs on four Bison hits in the top of the seventh. With two outs in the inning, the Bison's three consecutive base hits and a hit batsman paved a clear path to their three-run rally.
"I think we need a little bit more energy. Nothing against that team or anything, they're making the jump from D-II to D-I." Morrison said. "But as a team, it's sad to say, but you kind of have to get on them early and hold them down, pretty much pound them and don't let up."
Softball
CONTINUED FROM 1B
"They got some good hits off me," Humphreys said. "I just didn't have my best stuff."
The game marked the first time Humphreys had left early in her past five starts. The reigning Big 12 Pitcher of the Week started the game strong, striking out four Tigers in the first three innings. Missouri, however, was able to get to Humphreys in the fourth inning.
The Tigers scored two runs in both the fourth and sixth innings. Missouri's Amy Henke and Amanda Renth both scored in the fourth inning off a sacrifice single and pass ball, respectively. In the sixth inning, Micaela Minner's double scored Bruck, while Kathy Masterson's sacrifice bunt scored Minner later in the inning.

"They got to Kassie," Bunge said of a key in the game. "Nobody has done that in a while."
Edited by Timon Veach
Joshua Bickel/KANSAN
Coach Tracy Bunge talks to her team between innings Wednesday evening in Columbia, Mo. The Jayhawks lost to the Tigers, 4-0. Bunge said she was "really very disappointed with our team's effort today."
Following the game, Bunge let the team talk amongst themselves on the field for nearly 15 minutes.
Humphreys said the team used the meeting to talk about what motivated them and coming out with a different attitude.
"We need to come out and start realizing how good we are
and actually taking advantage of what we have because our season is slipping away," Humphreys said.
Kansas will play Texas Tech in a weekend series at Arrocha Ballpark. First pitch for Saturday's game is set for 2 p.m. and Sunday's game will begin at noon.

EDITOR'S NOTE
Abortion is not just a hot button issue — it's a whole keyboard. Comprising matters of politics,
legality, health, religion ethics, medicine, health feminism and freedom, I'd argue that the right (or not) to choose is the most contentious issue in America today. Legal for 33 years, abortion remains a tremendous controversy
and a newsworthy topic.The issue continues to make headlines, recently with Alito's appointment to chief justice, Wichita abortionist George Tiller under investigation for a patient's death and South Dakota's statewide ban.
So it was with nervousness and dread that I received reporter Erin Wisdom's proposal to do her
feature story on abortion.
Nervousness and dread turned to excitement and pride as the story came along — as it went through more drafts and took more time than any other feature this semester — because it doesn't focus on any of the
hot buttons.
The story is about the people. it is about those who have had abortions and those who chose not to. It is about women and men, doctors and counselors, proponents who fight for it and those who discourage it
at all costs. The story includes facts, statistics and experts opinions to give full scope to the issue, but the it's not propaganda, or a statement or an editorial, it is a story.
Tencourage you to read it slowly and thoughtfully. It is too easy to make abortion a matter of politics, or religion, or medicine, and to not consider the people — both relieved and regretful — who make it relevant to our world. Their testament yields a greater truth than facts or statistics ever could: the truth of personal experience. It focuses on the faces of abortion, for they matter most of all.

High school sweethearts Jordan Henderson and Meagan Davidson, Lawrence seniors, have survived college together and are currently engaged. Of never dating anyone else, Davidson jokes, "It's like one-stop shopping. I'm just lucky to have met him when I was 16."
High school sweethearts survive college together

KIT LEFFLEF
When he saw her at a mud volleyball game in ninth grade, Brett Buxton knew he was in trouble."For the first time it was like,'BAM,'I liked someone,"he says."I don't know what it was, everything from our conversation to the way we looked at each other clicked."
The fact that Debbie Slack, the object of his affection, had a boyfriend didn't matter to him. Buxton told Slack that he would do whatever it took to win her heart — six and a half years later, the two Lawrence seniors are still together.
With today's high divorce rates (50 percent, according to the National Center for Health), some people are leery about the success of high school relationships in — and after — college.
While these relationships face tough issues, the odds of success might not be that different than couples who begin a relationship at other times in their lives, says Christopher Richmond, doctoral student at Counseling and Psychological Services. Couples that meet in high school and have a longer courtship might actually have a lower divorce rate because they have a mature understanding of relationships, he says.
Students frequently want to keep dating their high school sweetheart when they get
to college, but they also want the option of exploring new opportunities, like dating someone new, says John Wade, psychologist at CAPS. If couples have clear expectations of what they expect to change, it's easier on the relationship, he says.
Peer pressure to date other people before settling down is common for high school sweethearts. Even when a relationship is going well, students sometimes are concerned if they haven't dated people other than their partner, Wade says.
"If you date a lot of people, you have the advantage of lots of experiences, and you know better what sort of individuals you get along with," he says. "But if you jump around too much, you make the trade-off of not having experience in a long-term relationship."
When Bucyrus seniors Meagan Davidson and Jordan Henderson (high school sweethearts and soon-to-be husband and wife) came to college together four years ago, they invited the changes in their relationship. "We said we were going to meet new people, do new things and not just stick together," Davidson says. "It really helped our relationship."
Buxton's fraternity brothers told him it wasn't "cool" to have a girlfriend. He says
that he considered their arguments — but decided Slack was worth sticking with.
Davidson has a different opinion. She says she and her fiancé don't regret having only dated each other. "It's like one-stop shopping," she says, jokingly. "I'm just lucky to have met him when I was 16."
Pressure to date other people in college is an issue high school sweethearts face when they come to college. "Students believe that they must have many dating experiences prior to finding 'the one,'" Richmond says.
Buxton says there's always the "what if?" factor when considering he's only dated Slack, but it's nothing compared to all the positive things about their relationship. "If something's good, there's no need to change it," he says.
With graduation looming, high school sweethearts face another issue: where does the relationship go from here? Unless they plan on moving to the same place, couples face the challenge of maintaining a long distance relationship. It's easier to misinterpret a partner's emotions when not actually interacting with them, Wade says.
Buxton says his future with Slack is unknown, but the plan is to be together. "Oh for sure," he says, "Debbie's my gal."
KEYS TO A SUCCESSFUL RELATIONSHIP
Relationship psychotherapist Paula Hall looks at the seven essentials that spell success.
➡ Love yourself — if you don't, no one else will.
*Like your partner — if you genuinely like each other, enjoy being together, agree with how each other thinks and behaves, love isn't far away.*
→Make quality time — the less time you spend together, the more likely you are to drift apart.
➢Communicate — talking is the only way to let your partner know who you are and what you want.
- Argue well — a good argument is an opportunity to share your feelings and strengthen your bond by reaching a decision you're both happy with.
Touch every day — Touching is a vital human need. Being caressed releases natural opiates in the brain, as well as the chemical oxytocin, which is essential for human pair-bonding.
$\Rightarrow$ Accept change — in successful relationships, couples learn to adapt and change together. They accept that change is an inevitable part of human life and support each other, for better for worse.

NEXT FALL MY BOYFRIEND WILL BE MOVING TO KC, BUT I'LL STILL BE HERE IN LAWRENCE. ANY SUGGESTIONS ON HOW WE CAN REMAIN CLOSE, BUT LIVE IN DIFFERENT CITIES?
MORGAN. SOPHOMORE
Jessica: Yeah.Pay for the gas you'll be using when you visit him every other day and make sure he reciprocates by visiting you.
8:30 & 10:30 AM
Brian: Here's the best way to remain close; get in your damn car and drive to Kansas City. If the 40 miles in between you and him get in the way of your relationship, then give up hope. Even if you both don't want to drive to meet each other every day, you could it two or three times a week. The only way everything will go arry is if you two were either never meant to be, or if you're a lazy-ass and don't put forth any effort.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF THREE AND FOURWAY SEX?
— AMANDA, SENIOR
Brian: Well, I guess you could say one of the benefits of three and four-way sex would be it would make you a much more open person.Literally.Other benefits include, but are not limited to, a larger, creepier social circle,a new reputation,a larger phonebook in your cell,breaking in your bed faster.Increasing your hand-eye-mouth ass coordination and learning about various types of penises.
Jessica: There are no benefits unless you're keen on the idea of degrading yourself and watching others do the same. You could contract STDs, ruin your reputation, get pregnant, destroy your relationship if you're in one and just plain have regrets. I'd disregard Brian's orgy-loving advice and stick to one committed partner.

The Chi Omega fountain: for those up to no good
NOTICE
CIRCLE OF MISCHIEF
KIT LEFFLER
by Malinda Osborne
Just because they were his friends didn't mean Adam Shaner was going to let them bind his legs without a fight.
The whole ordeal started when, in accordance with his scholarship hall's unofficial birthday celebration procedure, his peers dunked him in the Chancellor's fountain. But the Manhattan junior's friends had not yet satisfied their desire to get him soaking wet. Around 9 p.m., Shaner was in the back of a pick-up truck, his feet tied together, on the way to be dumped in the Chi Omega fountain.
Shaner managed to unbind his legs and, when his friends went to unload him, he took off in a dead sprint. Without any shoes, he ran across campus. On the way home, he ran into the others from his hall.
"I tried to change course but they were pretty close so I dove in the bushes and got this huge gash on my back," he says. "They still got me though and ended up throwing me in the fountain."
Over the years, the Chi Omega fountain has served as a haven for scantily clad sunbathers, birthday baptizers and sauced streakers. But few
students know the history behind the legendary, all-purpose water park.
As a Chi Omega myself, I know I took more pride in that fountain than in the sorority. That's probably why most Chi Omegas begrudge that the sorority doesn't actually own the fountain.
In 1955, the sorority donated the 18th-century English-style fountain to the University of Kansas as a memorial to the chapter's founders. At the time of construction, the fountain cost $10,000.
Mike LaBonte works for Facilities Operations and is in charge of cleaning the fountain. He cleans the fountain at least once a week unless it's vandalized, which he says has happened more times than he can remember. LaBonte says clothes commonly are left around the area.
To give it flair, the fountain's copper second tier is covered in reliefs depicting the Greek myth of Persephone, which is part of the sorority's heritage.
Over the years, the 5,300 gallon water dispenser has been filled with everything from dish washing detergent and Tang to purple dye from visiting K-Staters.
The KU Public Safety Office isn't primarily concerned with streakers or
waders, Chief Ralph Oliver says. But,
"There shouldn't be any unauthorized individuals in the fountain because it is just that: a fountain," Oliver says. "It's
not a swimming pool. It's a decoration of the University."
What they don't tell you, though, is that you can legally be in the bottom part of the fountain, just not on any of the raised — and arguably more fun — portions.
to put a stack of towels in the room adjacent to the front entryway for the "naked fraternity pledges that are thrown in the fountain," according to
Many years ago, a pineapple-shaped water dispenser used to sit atop the fountain. It's no longer there — KU officials got tired of replacing it when it was stolen.
Oliver says the part most frequently tampered with is the top copper sprayer. It costs $25 to replace.
"THERE SHOULDN'T BE ANY UNAUTHORIZED INDIVIDUALS IN THE FOUNTAIN BECAUSE IT IS JUST THAT: A FOUNTAIN. IT'S NOT A SWIMMING POOL. IT'S A DECORATION OF THE UNIVERSITY." CHIEF RALPH OLIVER, KU PUBLIC SAFETY OFFICE
Another classic fountain activity — besides trying to tear it apart involves getting naked in its shallow, murky waters. During the mid-'70s, nude visitors became so frequent that the Chi Omega housemother decided
chapter records.
The tradition of streakers continues strong, says current Norma Doleshal, Chi Omega house mother. She remembers a time last year when a swarmoffraternity pledges were stripped down and dumped by
the fountain. An announcement was made throughout the house that naked men were in the fountain, Doleshal says, mostly for the benefit of sophomores who just moved in. Soon afterwards, she says, she heard what sounded like a herd of elephants in the house as the girls rushed to get a better view. One girl even had recently emerged from the shower and remained clad in a bath towel.
"I don't think the boys realize how much the girls look out the windows," she says.
Plenty of people probably were looking when Collin Chlebak, Rowlett, Texas, junior, went to the fountain on Stop Day eve last spring semester. While being carted home from the bars he told the driver to stop so he could friclic in the fountain with his friends and some girls they were with that night.
"I was already down to my boxers when I got in the fountain and the cops showed up. I was pretty intoxicated so I ran but then they put the spotlight on me." Chlebak says.
At that point, he was directly in front of the Chi Omega house. Police questioned him and ran a background check on him. When he was cleared, the police left and Chlebak walked home by himself, soaked and clad only in his boxers.
So while Chlebak and Shaner may have been resigned to a solitary walk home, they are not alone in having memories made at the Chi Omega fountain. Wading in its waters is a time-honored KU tradition that will continue with each class.

Guys, looking to spruce up your usual button-down shirt? Throw on a short-sleeved t-shirt over a long-sleeved dress shirt, and you've got a look suitable for campus or the bars. The versatile combo fits well with any kind of pants or shoes, particularly a nice pair of jeans. Topping off with a tee adds a little variation into an everyday wardrobe, says Tyler McNally, Osage Beach, Mo, senior. "When you go out, every guy looks the same in an Oxford. But if you throw a t-shirt on top, you stand out," he says.

Abortion does more than cause arguments — it alters lives.
obody wants to have an abortion. Sara* didn't. But when the Topeka senior was pregnant at 17, without health insurance and with three younger siblings to help provide for, abortion seemed the only answer. Her mom had gotten pregnant with her at 17, and Sara knew the poverty and neglect this had caused. She didn't want to perpetuate the cycle.
"There was no way I was going to bring a kid into this," she says. "It would not be nourished. It would not be loved. It would be a burden on me."
Sara doesn't regret her choice. The second her pregnancy ended was when her second chance at a good life began, she says. Rather than dwelling on the child she doesn't have now, she is thankful for what she does have and she is proud to be the first person in her family to go to college. She hopes she'll have children someday — when she's ready.
Joy Lawson, Olathe senior and president of Students for Reproductive Rights, says she has several friends who have had abortions, like Sara, they don't regret the choice — if they felt like they had a choice at all. Not every woman does, Lawson says. She adds that because not every woman can afford a child, abortion is something some must choose to sustain
Sara is far from alone in choosing abortion. Studies indicate that in the United States, 25 percent of pregnancies end in abortion. This amounts to more than 47 million abortions since the procedure became legal in 1973, and 50 percent of the women who undergo the procedure are in the 15 to 24 age range, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. These statistics show that — no matter how overly debated the issue may seem — the most important issues surrounding abortion deserve consideration, as do the experiences of those affected by them.
themselfs. And about 1 percent of the time, abortions are performed because a woman is physically endangered by her pregnancy. Sometimes people concentrate too much on what abortion does to the fetus, Lawson says, and forget about the woman carrying it.
after she was married and had suffered several miscarriages. As she mourned the loss of these children she'd wanted, she also grieved for the life she'd chosen to end.
Anna* understands feeling that abortion is the only answer. When the Kansas City woman found she was pregnant during her senior year at KU, she didn't consider other options. She didn't want to think — all she wanted was to not be pregnant. Her fiancé agreed abortion was the right choice.
Immediately after the procedure Anna felt relief, but the feeling didn't last. Within a few months she began to wish she hadn't had the abortion. Regret it especially hard years later,

ber is the moment she was taken from me," she says of her aborted child. "And that was my doing — mine and my husband's. I would do anything to protect my boys. It's very hard to think I didn't do that for her."

Vanessa Cullins, vice president for medical affairs at Planned Parenthood Federation of America. Women are more likely to experience psychological trauma after giving birth than after having an abortion, she says, adding that the women who are most likely to have negative emotional reactions to abortion are those who had psychological problems beforehand or who had to end a pregnancy they wanted. Numerous studies support her statement. One published in the American Journal of Psychiatry reports that up to 98 percent of the women it surveyed did not regret having abortions and would make the same choice again in similar circumstances.
Fifty-four percent of women having abortions used a contraceptive method during the month they became pregnant.

sexual dysfunctions, loss of self-esteem, drug and alcohol abuse, depression, thoughts of suicide and even suicide attempts.
Pat Klausner, the program coordinator of Project Rachel, an outreach program for women suffering after having abortions, has witnessed some of these reactions in women she has worked with. She says she's also seen abortion lead to failed relationships. Often the emotional trauma caused by an abortion is too much for a relationship to withstand, she says.
Unlike the women Klausner has worked with, Melinda* hasn't experienced any emotional burden from her abortion. When the senior at the University of Missouri-Kansas City was pregnant two years ago, she already had a 5-year-old and didn't want to double her difficulties as a single mother. Plus, she had her son to think about.
Twenty-five percent of pregnancies end in abortion, and 50 percent of the women who have them are between 15 and 24, according to the U.S. Census Bureau
"I felt that I had made a commitment to be the best parent I could
pressed negative emotions and that close to 10 percent had developed "serious psychiatric complications" since their abortions. Among the negative reactions to abortion that studies report are guilt, nervous disorders, sleep disturbances, regret, eating disorders,
to him under less than ideal circumstances, and that having another child at that time would have broken that commitment," she says.
She adds that although she hadn't understood the repercussions of having a child when shed had her son,
by the time she was pregnant again she knew them well.She says her decision to have an abortion had a lot to do with her being more mature than she was at 16 and with her desire to finish school and to give her son the best future possible.
Even when women, like Melinda, do not suffer emotionally from abortion, their physical health may be at risk.The National Cancer Institute does not recognize a link between abortion and breast cancer. Some studies indicate, however, that a woman who aborts her first pregnancy increases her risk of breast cancer by up to 50 percent. Other risks include infection, hemorrhage, uterine damage and cervical damage, which the National Abortion Federation acknowledges, but says occur in fewer than 1 percent of cases.
Other studies report higher occurrences of these complications. One published in The Lancet, a British medical journal, found that of more than 1,000 women who underwent closely regulated hospital abortions, 27 percent acquired post-abortion infections. Another, published in Family Planning Perspectives journal, found that abortion led to cervical lacerations in 22 percent of the women it studied. This damage can weaken the cervix and cause a woman to miscarry or prematurely deliver future children — if she conceive again at all. Three to 5 percent of post-abortive women are left sterile, according to a study published in the British Medical Journal.
Women turn to abortion because they see it as something that will help them, but these possible physical and psychological consequences raise a question as to whether it actually does, says Carol Everett, author of the books Blood Money and The Scarlet Lady: Confessions of a Successful Abortionist. In the 1970s and 80s, Everett owned several abortion clinics in the Dallas area. For her and her colleagues,
she says, performing abortions wasn't about helping women. Rather, it was about how much money they could make — even when this meant selling abortions to women who weren't pregnant.Everett says that in 1983, she was on target to make $260,000.Once the additional clinics she'd planned were up and running, she says she expected to take home $1 million a year.
When money was all that mattered, Everett says, she could look beyond the destruction she witnessed every day in her clinics. Seeing a baby's form on a sonogram, seeing it pull away from the instruments inserted into its mother's womb, piecing the body parts back together after the abortion to make sure no parts had been left inside the mother — these left her no room to believe the unborn was only a glob of tissue, she says. Witnessing physical complications and emotional devastation left her no room to

DEVELOPMENT OF THE UNBORN
Although not a complete list, these are some of the things that occur in the unborn during the first months of life.
**Conception:** The 46 chromosomes present in the zygote determine sex, eye color, hair color, height, facial features and — to some extent — intelligence and personality.
**Three weeks after conception:** Heart begins to beat.
conception: Basic facial features begin to appear.
Six weeks after

believe the unborn was only a glob of tissue, she says. Witnessing physical complications and emotional devastation left her no room to believe abortion could be a woman's best option. But when money spoke — loudly — these realities couldn't make her abandon the practice.
What did make her leave it behind, she says, was becoming a Christian and believing she'd received validation from God that he wanted her out of the business. Now Everett runs an outreach that helps women deal with unplanned pregnancies in ways other than abortion.
"There are no words to describe how bad abortion really is." she says.
Despite Everett's testimony concerning her motives, not all abortion providers are more concerned with money than with helping women, says Peter Brownlie, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood of Kansas and Mid-Missouri. Abortions may
be pricey (procedures offered at Planned Parenthood in this area range from $375 to $2,000), but there are much easier ways for a physician to make money than through abortion, Brownlie says. Doctors that provide abortions face significant personal costs. They may be harassed, ostracized and marginalized, but they choose their work anyway, because they see it as a service that needs to be offered — even if it's not the most desirable one.
"Nobody wants to have an abortion," Brownile says."People decide to end a pregnancy because, while it's not an attractive thing to do, it's the best of the options they have available. It's sort of the least-worst."
According to data from the Alan Guttmacher Institute, about 90 percent of abortions are performed in the first trimester of pregnancy. The proper procedure is determined by how many weeks pregnant a woman is.
There's no one factor that determines whether a person should have an abortion, he says. Women and men faced with unexpected pregnancies must deal with many issues in deciding what to do about them, including the nature of their relationships, their aspirations and their economic situations.

ABORTION PROCEDURES
In her scholarly article "When Do Human Beings Begin?" Irving makes a distinction between
Despite the complexity of the decisions people must make in dealing with unplanned pregnancies, however, all the debate of the rightness or wrongness of abortion can be whittled down to a single question. That is not, Brownlie says, a question of when life begins. Sperm and egg are alive. The fetus they create is living. The fundamental question, rather, is at what stage is that life human? Spiritually human? Legally human? Deserving of the same rights as the woman carrying it? These, he says, are not questions science can answer.
agrees that science does not answer all of these. She does believe, however, that both scientifically and philosophically, the immediate product of fertilization is human.
Dianne Irving, a bench research scientist and philosopher,
a human being (which she says is defined by science) and a human person (which she says is defined by philosophy). She adds that believing a human person begins at any time other than conception requires a belief in a mind/body split that is "totally indefensible," but spends a majority of this article addressing scientific, not philosophical, issues.
Biologically, Irving says, the product of conception is a human being. The single-cell zygote created at conception has 46 chromosomes — the number characteristic of humans. It produces specifically human proteins and enzymes. It, rather than its mother, directs its own growth and development. This shows that it is not merely a piece of its mother's tissue, as does the fact that it is genetically different than both its mother and father.
An international committee of experts in human embryology — the Nomina Embryologica Committee — accepts these facts as proof that a human be-

mg begins at conception. The field of human embryology is required to follow the facts sanctioned by this committee, which means that every human embryology textbook teaches that the product of conception is biologically human.
Jill*, a Kansas City woman, knew all of this. She was a biology major. She'd taken a class in embryology. But when she was 20 and pregnant, none of this knowledge mattered. She closed her mind to everything except the fact that she had a crisis and had to fix it. Immediately following the abortion, she was able to convince herself she had.
"I think everyone is initially relieved, because the procedure is over, and you think the problem is over," she says. "But it doesn't take very long to recognize from now on, you're going to have to play a different game in your head. Now you have to pretend it was the right thing, though you know it wasn't."
Jill pretended her abortion was right for 20 years, she says, and suffered the entire time. She says her husband, who is the father of the aborted child, suffered as much as she did. The abortion was a breach of everything they'd created together, she says, and the stress their decision placed on their relationship was immense.
Unlike many relationships affected by abortion, however, Jill's survived. Because it did, she can speak to the fact that psychologically, abortion can harm men as much as it can women.
"I don't know how we made it," she says. "It has to be by the grace and mercy of God. It's a unique position to be in, to know where the guy is and what he's going through."
It wasn't until she and her husband acknowledged they'd made a mistake that they could receive forgiveness from God and begin to heal, both individually and as a couple. Now, whenever Jill shares her story, she encourages people not to react hastily to a crisis pregnancy — because the decision will be there for a lifetime.
"Don't hurry," Jill advises anyone in the position to have an abortion. "It's your life, and you are worth a well-thought-out response."

LIFE AFTER CHOOSING LIFE
For Monica Dutcher, time and finances are always a strain. But the Cody, Wyo., sophomore has never regretted refusing to have an abortion when she was 17 — even though her boyfriend left her because of it and has never wanted to meet his daughter.
For her first two years of college, Dutcher went to school full time and had two part-time jobs. Now, although she's down to one job, her days are packed with classes, work and caring for her daughter from 7 in the morning.
when she takes 4-year-old LexiAnne to school, till 9 at night, when she puts her to bed. After that it's time for homework — and the next day it all begins again.
"It's tough, but definitely worth it, she says. "To raise a child is amazing."
Unlike Dutcher, Mary Crouch wasn't up to taking on the responsibilities of motherhood during college. That's why she'd chosen never to have sex. But after being raped while studying abroad in Italy, the St. Louis University senior found she was pregnant.
JAXPLAY 04.13.2006
Abortion wasn't a possibility for Crouch. Despite the awful circumstances that caused her pregnancy, she says she couldn't end it knowing she had a real person inside her. Because she wasn't ready to be a mother, she knew adoption was her best option.
Crouch gave birth to Abraham on April 6, 2005. She had decided early in her pregnancy that she wanted a couple in her hometown to adopt him — one shed known for years and who hadn't been able to have children of their own.
After carrying Abraham for nine months, there was grief in giving him away, Crouch says. But she knows it was best for both of them. She knows, too, that changing nine months of her life to have him was by far a better choice than abortion would have been.
"Holding this child that at first I thought it was a mistake — there's nothing that says to me it would have been better to end life," she says, "I can't imagine him not existing. I think he was as much a person when he was conceived as he is to me now."

Popcorn isn't just for the movies — the salty, buttery taste of microwave popcorn is the perfect snack for any drunken night. After consuming empty calories from various alcoholic drinks, popcorn is a healthy and quick alternative to late-night fast food stops. According to The Nutrition Bible, one cup of air-popped unbuttered popcorn has 31 calories, no fat and 1 gram of fiber. Even drizzled lightly with butter, it's only 90 to 120 calories per cup.

How calories factor into your party nights
You're standing at the overcrowded bar, desperately trying to get the attention of the bartender. When you finally make eye contact, she looks at you expectantly. She asks what you want. Conscious of the impending summer months and the six-pack abs you're determined to have by fall, you consider ordering the ultra-light beer du jour. Better judgment cast aside, you opt for a light beer on tap. How many more calories could it be, right? And you're not about to forsake flavor for vanity.
But what difference does your drink choice make when it comes to counting calories? The calories found in the common libations below may surprise you.

BUD LIGHT
12-ounce serving
Calories: 110
No list of alcoholic drinks is complete without the best-selling beer in the country and the number one light beer in the world. With 110 calories per serving, it's a good choice for those who watch their calorie intake, but aren't obsessive enough to order an ultra-light beer.
A word to the wise: if you regularly consume four or five beers in one sitting, your body will notice those 500 or so extra calories.

So if you choose to imbibe, remember that alcohol can be a pitfall for your diet. Besides being full of empty calories, says Ann Chapman, registered dietitian at Watkins Health Center, alcohol also enhances the appetite.
"After your drink, you may eat a meal you wouldn't have otherwise," Chapman says. "So aside from the extra calories in the alcohol itself, you add an extra meal."
Her tips? Don't drink on an empty stomach. And for every alcoholic drink you have, drink 10 to 12 ounces of water.

DO YOU THINK ABOUT CALORIES WHEN YOU DRINK ALCOHOL?
"I never think about calories when drinking. I don't even know how many calories are in a drink.I drink light beer, but not because of calorie content."
— Jessica Arthur, Tulsa senior
"Yes. I definitely consider calorie content when I'm drinking. Instead of choosing beer or Red Bull and vodka, I try to stick with diet soda and vodka or rum. Alcohol is loaded with empty calories and it also stimulates my appetite — especially for Wheel pizza."
— Hillary Burton, Overland Park senior
"No, I do not think about the calories when I drink alcohol. Really, what is the point?"
— Alex Creek, Overland Park school
"No, but I heard that a jager bomb contains the same amount of calories as a Whopper, but I don't care either way." — Joe Bedalow, Chicago senior

The 'reel' world
Festival showcases student films
by Charissa Young
PHOTO: COURTSEY OF TAYLOR SOAN
Most people use towels for drying or cleaning. But filmmakers aren't most people. Through the eyes of a filmmaker, everyday objects can become something extraordinary.
For Ian Hrabe, Olathe sophomore, a towel is a cape that transforms the everyman into a superhero. But Hrabe's
not giving away anything else about his film — primarily because he hasn't finished it.
"When I make a film, it comes together spontaneously. I don't really work off a script because everything just seems to fall into place," Hrabe says.
From superheroes to heroin addiction, no subject is off-limits for films entered in the first Filmworks Film Festival, which
will screen the film entries, due tomorrow, April 23.The festival is at Oldfather Studios, Ninth and Avalon Streets, and will feature two hours of short films. Five judges will 16>JAYPLAY 04.13.2006

critique, and first-, second- and third-place winners will be awarded with trophies. There are also viewers' choice and most original awards.
The festival requires that film entries incorporate the use of a towel and the festival's theme, "This is the end," chosen by Doors fan Taylor Sloan.
who coordinated the festival. The Overland Park junior says he chose an ambiguous object and theme to allow maximum creativity. Sloan says filmmakers can interpret the theme and object in different ways, which will attract a diverse range of films.
Matt Jacobson assistant professor of filmandfestivaljudge, was the director of photography for
C. S.A.: The Confederate States of America, currently being shown in theatres nationwide. Jacobson says the film industry is moving away from blockbusters
to embrace smaller, more personal films, which students are capable of making. "Movies don't have to be all about gun fights, car chases and special effects. If you make a movie about something you really care about, other people will care too," Jacobson says.
While students may be drawn to a festival featuring films made by their peers, filmmakers are drawn to the festival for different reasons. There is no student film channel and theatres rarely show student films, so the festival is an opportunity for students to screen their films for a large audience.
Brittany High and Anthony Solesky, collaborated on their film. The Raleigh, N.C., sophomores created a music video for the Rufus Wainwright song Baby. The film follows a woman who rescues a man from his addiction to heroin. High says that this is the first time she's sent a film into competition and hopes that audiences will respond to the honest depiction of heroin addiction."I don't try to glam it up. I don't glorify it," she says.
"Student filmmakers work in a vacuum. They make movies and usually only show it to their classmates or their buddies, which doesn't really get you anywhere," Jacobson says. The festival is an opportunity for filmmakers to present
their film to an unbiased audience for judging their individual merits, he says, which will help them make better films in the future.
KU Filmworks, a film and video production club, is sponsoring the festival. Sloan and other Filmworks club members coordinated the festival to use Oldfather Studios' underutilized screening facilities. Though the festival is not limited to student films, Sloan says his biggest goal for the festival is to give students filmmakers the opportunity to meet other filmmakers, actors and faculty. Sloan and Jacobson both say that networking is an essential part to success in the film industry.
With any new project, there is risk for both failure and success. Jacobson says that he hopes the Filmworks Film Festival becomes an annual event, but expects a small number of film entries since this is the festival's first year. When it comes to coordinating a new festival or entering a student film into competition, Jacobson says that the key step to success is initiative."Everyone starts out small.The important thing is to get started. If you never start, you're never going to get anywhere," Jacobson says.

Born Again in the USA MUSIC by Loose Fur
Loose Fur is probably the best explanation for Wilco's experimental noisiness in their last few albums. The side project consists of Wilco frontman Jeff Tweedy and drummer Glenn Koxche and Sonic Youth's Jim O'Rourke. After the trio together at the Noise Pop Festival in 2000 and released a self-titled album in 2003, they have found time, despite touring and recording, to keep up their side project with
their latest release, Born Again in the USA.
The album sounds like a laidback noisy jam session between the collaborators. It consists mostly of short and sweet (with the exception of the B 1/2 minute-long "Wreckdom") folk rock songs that are infused seamlessly with the trio's signature distorted noisiness. The singing is split between Tweedy and O'Rourke, but Tweedy does more.
If you can find it, download the video for "Hey Chicken," which consists entirely of Japanese Power Rangers clips and is edited to appear to be some sort of goofy dance-off — it's hilarious.

The image is a black and white sketch of a person performing an acrobatic pose, with one arm extended upwards and the other bent at the wrist. The individual has long hair and is wearing a sleeveless top. The background consists of abstract shapes and lines that do not form any recognizable pattern. There are no visible texts or labels within the image.
Take the Lead
MOVIE
During the opening shots of Take the Lead, all the main characters are dressing up for a night on the town. The camera jumps from inner-city kids, who are going clubbing, to Antonio Banderas's character, as he dons tails for ballroom dancing. The dichotomy between the two lifestyles and economic classes is evident throughout this film. The dancing that fills most of the film unites both types of people and creates empathy between all members.
Based on a true story, Take the Lead is
Banderas gives a solid and buoyant performance, putting his passionate personality to good use. One of the best scenes is when Banderas shows the audience his dancing shoes and he and an advanced student dance
from drug use to physical abuse to prostitution. As the story progresses, the students teach Banderas the meaning of hip-hop and, in return, he teaches them about life.The second half of the film becomes clichéd with stereotypical characters but it is engaging nonetheless.
a cute, stylish and predictable movie. But what it lacks in originality, it makes up for in compelling dancing and laughs. The always-suave Antonio Banderas plays a refined ballroom dancing instructor who teaches wealthy New Yorkers. One night he encounters a kid vandalizing a car. The following day, he visits the kid's school to notify the principal. While there, the instructor volunteers to teach ballroom dancing to the kids in detention. Detention is full of students with problems ranging
a smokering tango. While the ending is rather implausible, you still will find yourself tapping along with the beats. If you go to this movie just to have fun, you will not be disappointed.

Peculiar
by The Slackers
Variety usually isn't associated with ska albums, but The Slackers manage serve up some on their most recent effort, *Pecular*.
The Slackers, known for their heavily traditional ska roots, break out with reggae, soul, pop and more to make *Peculiar* one of the best ska albums I've ever heard.
The album starts with a classic ska anthem "86 the Mayo," which will be sure to get people on the dance floor. On "Propaganda," the Slackers show

With Peculiar you might think there may be a future for ska, a genre plagued by generic bands in the last several years. The Slackers manage to combine the old sounds with new ideas, making Peculiar worth hearing for any ska fan.
LUCKY NUMBER SLEVIN
Chris Brower
MOVIE
Out of all the movies I've seen this year, Lucky Number Slevin is, hands down, the one with the best wallpaper.
It has a few other things going for it, too, though nothing in the movie is as bold as the set design. There are many plot twists, but they somehow manage to be
surprising in a predictable way.
Watching the story unfold is like watching a puzzle put itself together; no mental effort is required, and you can tell where
each piece is going to fit just before it's put in place.
The roles are not demanding, but the actors seem to enjoy themselves. Morgan Freeman probably was relieved to take a break from dispensing earthly wisdom; in *Lucky Number Slevin*, he gets to play the Boss, a paranoid New York crime lord seeking revenge against the Rabbi (Ben Kingsley) for the death of his son. With the help of Bruce Willis (playing that same guy he always plays), the Boss railroads hapless Skelin (Josh Hartnett) into killing
the Rabbi's son.
TOMMY BROWN
Slevin takes his amazingly bad luck in stride. He remains unfazed for the first half of the movie, even as he's shunted back and forth between the two crime lords' headquarters, his nose broken, wearing nothing but a towel. In most movies, Josh
Hartnett looks as if his dog just got hit by a truck, and it's enjoyable to watch him having fun for once.
L u c k y Number Slevin never really builds up the level of expectation
that it takes for a movie to be disappointing. It makes few promises, and delivers on all of them.
I give the movie two stars.The third star is for the wallpaper.

Pi Kappa Phi fears losing house to returning fraternity
(AP)
AUGUST 27
The Pi Kappa Phi chapter has announced it would lose its house in a bid to return to normal.
According to a statement from the chapter's treasurer, Gregory O'Reilly, the house was vacant for over two years and the chapter had been unable to secure financing to build it.
O'Reilly said the house would be demolished when the chapter reached a new lease of ownership.
"The chapter is desperate for financial assistance to cover the costs of constructing a new house," he said.
The chapter has also asked the local government to consider building a new house at the site.
"We are deeply concerned about losing our house and want to continue the chapter's tradition of creating a space for growth and success," O'Reilly said.

SPEAK
STITCHING AWAY STRESS
Maria Fernandez
When life hands you a knotted, tangled mess of yarn, make a scarf. by Carolyn Tharp
Each year, as people unpack their clothes for a cold Kansan winter, I get out my purple canvas bag full of yarn and knitting needles. I've been knitting since December 14, 2002, my freshman year and the day my friend attempted suicide. I sat in the hallway of our dorm floor with six other girls while one friend taught us how to knit. We were waiting for the Oliver Hall staff to come tell us if our friend, Allison, was alive or dead.
On Stop Day eve, the night when most students celebrate the end of the semester by getting wasted, Allison, alone in her dorm room, hanged herself. Residents on the seventh floor found and revived her, but the several minutes of oxygen deprivation left her in a vegetative state.
Through 10 floors, gossip and rumors floated that she had already died and people speculated why she did it. Kids talked about seeing her at the bars the night before. Suddenly, everyone seemed to know her somehow.
The six knitters had only known Allison for four months. But in that short time, she struggled with bullimia. She had mixed alcohol and aspirin to the point of being hospitalized, and she missed so much class that graduating seemed impossible.
My friends and I waited somberly in the hallway, quiet except for the sound of aluminum knitting needles clicking together. We focused on each individual stitch and the soothing, back-and-forth motion.
The tension eased as we started talking about Allison. One girl smiled and recalled how Allison always walked around eating a spoonful of creamy peanut butter. Another laughed as we talked about Allison's color-coordinated closet, probably the most organized of any in Oliver Hall. After a while, I could see my tiny bunches of yarn starting to form the shape of a scarf. I was building something out of what seemed like a hopeless situation.
I've carried knitting with me from the dorm to my first apartment, through four winters and into my senior year. Now, I knit to pass the time. I knit to relax. I knit to myself. Whether I'm tired from a long shift at work or upset with a not-so-hot grade, the act of sitting down and focusing on the monotonous motion of pushing the needles back and forth, moving stitches over and adding more yarn, centers me.
I knitted in the movie theater during the third episode of The Lord of the Rings trilogy. I've knitted on airplanes, at coffee shops, at home on my couch.
Many of my friends and family sport scarves that I made them. After knitting for four years, I'm still not that good. I haven't tried to do much more than the basic square shape. I've attempted hats but don't finish every project I start.
I don't have an owner in mind for every scarf I begin.
I knit because I like the motion of sitting down and making something.
Wherever I am, knitting brings me back to that therapeutic Friday when my friends and I came together in such a painful situation. That day went on and so did the rest of freshman year. After months of struggling, Allison passed away that June.I knitted then, even though the weather was warm, and I'll be knitting next winter, too.

Students 'die-in' for Africa
By DEJUAN ATWAY
datway@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Students from several organizations rallied together to put on the "Die for Life" demonstration in front of Strong Hall on Thursday, lying in the grass and holding signs with the total number of people killed and displaced because of the conflicts such as genocide in Sudan, extreme violence in northern Uganda and lengthy civil war in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The "die-in" was used to raise awareness toward the conflicts in Africa and other international crises.
People killed in the Democratic Republic of Congo: 3.8 million. Children abducted in northern Uganda: 66,000. People displaced in Sudan: 2.5 million.
"We want people to know that these issues are going on and they
will not be ignored," said Rebekah Heacock, Lawrence senior and president of KU for Uganda. "Students can make a difference, a lot of people don't think they can do anything because they are stuck in Kansas. They can have an effect on a child's life in northern Uganda or Sudan. I don't think many people know that." Participating in demonstrations, fundraising events or sponsorship are ways anyone can help, even in Kansas.
KU FIGHT, Fighting Ignorance of Global Humanitarian Threats, KU for Uganda, KU UNICEF the International Student Exchange Program, and Delta Force participated in the demonstration. The organizations asked the University to investigate its financial arrangements and dealings with the investment company TIAA-CREF

Web requirements cause problems for University students
Four thousand University of Kansas students didn't heed the University announcements at the beginning of the semester asking them to change their passwords. They might be regretting that now.
Because a KU username and password are required to log into the student Web pages, those students have not been able to Use Enroll and Pay or Blackboard since Thursday. In other words, they can't enroll online.
Bob Turvey, director of student information systems, said the main reason for this was that students didn't know they were supposed to change their passwords.

The dogs' liberation didn't last long.
Authorities caught up with Carroll, 20, of Glen Carbon, charging him Tuesday with two felony burglary counts.
Animal control officers told Carroll on April 5 they had picked up his Weimaraner, Titus, after finding the dog running loose, authorities said.
Carroll quickly became a suspect and investigators think he freed three other strays as a distraction.
Five days later, workers at the Metro East Humane Society and at the county's neighboring animal-control building discovered the break-in.
He remained in jail Wednesday on $60,000 bond.

NATION Funds donated where funds were not due
WASHINGTON — The Agriculture Department loaned $9 million over six years to farmers who shouldn't have gotten loans, according to an audit released Thursday.
The 98 farmers failed to fully repay earlier loans, according to the agency's inspector general. Congress considers those borrowers ineligible for future loans.
Through its Farm Service Agency, the department is a lender of last resort; it loans money to farmers and ranchers who can't get credit from banks or other lenders. In 2004 alone, the department issued $323 million in loans, the audit said.
The farmers got credit because department employees misunderstood the rules and approved some loans by mistake, the audit found.
In other cases, debt history was missing from the department's automated system for tracking loans, or the system wasn't used, auditors reported.
"We conclude that FSA should improve its controls for ensuring that applicants whose previous debts have been forgiven ... are judged ineligible," auditors wrote.
In response to the audit, the department said loans worth $1.5 million were actually eligible. Department officials also began collecting the other $7.5 million.The Inspector General agreed with the agency's response.
Department officials also issued new guidelines for employees and is putting finishing touches on a new computer system that will do a better job of tracking debt history.
"The integrity of these programs is very important to us" department spokesman Ed Loyd said.

Walk to raise AIDS awareness
1. ___
BY RACHEL PARKER
rparker@kansan.com
KANSAST Writer
The 14th annual AIDS awareness walk will take place Saturday morning in downtown Lawrence to raise money for the Douglas County AIDS Project.
Geri Summers, executive director for DCAP, said she hoped for a turnout of 300 people for this year's event, "Hitting the Bricks to Stop AIDS." But because the event falls on Easter weekend, she said it could be harder for people to attend.
Summers said the walk was important for two reasons: bringing the community together to help reduce the stigma around HIV and raising money to provide necessary services.
The walk will start at 8:30 a.m. at Maceli's, 1031 New Hampshire St., and continue through downtown Lawrence. At the end of the walk, participants will receive free brunch at Maceli's. Registration begins at 7:30 a.m.
Bill Smith, public health educator at the KU Wellness Resource Center, said this was the second year he was participating. Other staff members from the health center will join him on Saturday.
Smith said others from Watkins Memorial Health Center donated money in the past couple weeks to the people who are walking. He said they raised about $170 this year, which is near the amount raised last year.
DCAP provides services communicating health education concerning HIV and its prevention. It also provides free HIV counseling, testing, as well as management for those who test HIV positive.
According to AVERT, an international HIV and AIDS charity, more than 6.000 young adults ages 15 to 24 worldwide become infected with HIV each day, which makes up nearly half of the daily newly infected population.
CAMPUS GTAs still not satisfied with University contracts

The University of Kansas and its graduate teaching assistants have reached a stonewall in contract negotiations. The University and the Kansas Association of Public Employees, which represents the GTAs, will now seek assistance from Kansas' Public Employer Relations Board to resolve the issue.
Under the current contract, GTAs received an average 10 percent salary increase from 2003 to 2005, which resulted in a 33 percent increase in salaries. The GTAs did not receive a salary increase in Fall 2005.
"The University continues to believe that improvements in salaries and health insurance are of primary importance to most GTAs and University departments," said Lynn Bretz, KU spokeswoman. "Unfortunately, KAPE
sacrificed the University's salary offers to pursue non monetary issues."
LAWRENCE Easter egg hunt to benefit Boys and Girls Club
Kansan staff reports
Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity will be the host of an Easter egg hunt philanthropy Friday that will benefit the Boys and Girls Club of Lawrence.

Their petition flier stated that TIAA-CREF invested money in multinational corporations, which they claimed have indirectly funded the genocide in the Darfur region of Sudan.
"We feel that the University is thereby indirectly, but nevertheless unacceptably aiding, a continuation of the systematic murder in Sudan," their flier stated.
People who stopped and were interested in helping were asked to call Kansas Sen. Sam Brownback to ask for more funding to help bring peace to the conflicts.
Mark Skoglund, Olathe freshman and president of KU FIGHT, said he thought America gave no attention to international crises.
"The first sign that United States has made any significant action was with the Darfur Accountability Act of 2005 offered by Sen. Brownback," he said. "However, we do feel that this action is not enough. We feel it's important, but more actions need to be taken."
Reuben Dermyer, Olathe freshman, one was of the students who participated in the demonstration and said that this type of demonstration was an attention grabber.
"Nobody would go to a lecture who is not interested in it, but everybody walking by Strong Hall and Wescoe Beach will see this," he said. "It's a good cause because it directly affects millions of people who normally wouldn't get any help."

"You have to take it moment to moment, because these last couple of weeks have been stressful.
"As a director, you can't do anything. It is completely out of your hands. If it's terrible, then it's your fault; that is a huge responsibility." Perry said.
"In the back of your mind you worry about it not working out, but it will come together. It always does."

Jerree Catlin, director of the program and service management office for information services, said that students were still able to get onto the system and were not being forced to change their password for two reasons.
The first reason is that until April 6, there was a glitch in the authentication system for both Blackboard and Enroll and Pay. It wasn't checking to make sure that users had valid passwords.

Independence girl fakes kidnapping
NATION
BY JOHN HANNA THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
INDEPENDENCE, Kan. — A popular 16-year-old girl's harrowing tale of being abducted at gunpoint from her family's driveway was a lie, authorities said Thursday, declining to say why the girl perpetrated the hoax.
The police and FBI said Kelsey Stelting acknowledged Thursday morning that the abduction "did not happen" and that she spent more than 16 hours alone in an area southwest of Independence.
Her disappearance prompted an Amber Alert, with the FBI bringing in 30 agents to join police and county officers in the search. Friends and family, meanwhile, papered the town with thousands of posters and fliers with her picture, and at least two churches held prayer vigils for her.
But police chief Lee Bynum and FBI Special Agent Jeff Lanza said investigators never obtained any physical evidence to corroborate the girl's story, despite her frantic-sounding 911 call early Tuesday morning. Authorities never released a detailed description or drawing of the white male who the girl claimed kidnapped her, nor did they ever find the
When she reappeared Tuesday night at the front door of a two-story brick home less than a mile away from her own home, she told the occupants that she clobbered her assailant with a glass in the woods nearby and ran away.
white van in which she supposedly had been kept.
Authorities acknowledged having suspicions early on that the girl's story was false, and Bynum said that by the time Stetling acknowledged lying, "It was not a surprise to me."
Lanza said: "Pretty early on, things weren't adding up in terms of her story. If you have not one minor, even minor, small piece of evidence that corroborates a story, then you have a problem with the story.
"And we couldn't find anything at all that corroborated her story." he said.
Bynum said police would turn over reports to the county's juvenile prosecutor late next week to determine whether charges would be filed. Lanza said he didn't foresee any federal charges.
In state court, she could be charged with filing a false police report, a misdemeanor. An adult charged with that crime would face a year in jail and a fine of up to $2,500.

She was followed by guard Erica Hallman. Hallman had promised Henrickson earlier in the evening that she wouldn't cry during her speech, and was able to maintain composure the whole time, though she admitted it was difficult for her to speak in front of a large crowd.
Hallman took time to thank the coaches who stood by her during her academic suspension earlier in the season, and talked about the exciting end to the season.
"It has been up and down, but to go out on top is good," she said.
The team finished the season with its first post-season victory in seven years, defeating Northern Iowa in the preliminary round of the WNIT.
She started by thanking her family for driving in from Topeka to attend, including her mother, Janice, but made sure to point out that they had arrived late.
The final speech of the night was given by forward Crystal Kemp, who was also recognized for her selection to the All-Big 12 first team. Kemp had the longest speech, but all the seniors kept their remarks brief.
"I couldn't think of a better place to come and play basketball." she said.
Freshman forward Sophronia Sallard did not attend. Her future with the team is still in jeopardy because of an unspecified medical condition. Freshman forward Jen Orgas was also not present. Orgas fainted during practice earlier in the day. While under medical care, she talked with Henrickson.
The seniors were then joined onstage by the rest of the players, with two exceptions.
"She said, 'I really want to come to the banquet. I bought a really great dress,'" the coach recalled.
Orgas didn't make it, but she still has three more years to attend the banquet.

Only one starter from the front seven, junior James McClinton, will return next season. Kansas will also lose Charles Gordon, Theo Baines and Rodney Fowler from the secondary.
WHAT TO WATCH FOR TONIGHT
Linebackers
great technique and knowledge of the game because they were in the film room every day.
It will not be an easy task to replace the trio of Reid, Kane and Floodman, who led the No. 3 rush defense in the nation. Sophomores Mike Rivera, Joe Mortensen and James Holt will have the tough job of truing to replace them.
Defensive Line
Mortensen said the trio had
"If we play up to our ability, in a couple years the guys behind us will have to get out of our shadow." Mortensen said.
Mangino said this defensive line would be more physical than any defensive线 he had coached.
"When these kids come off the ball, they'll hit you in the mouth," he said.
Although McClinton is the only returning starter on the defensive line, look for senior Wayne Wilder, a 6-foot-3-inch, 295-pound lineman, to become a force in the middle.
Also senior John McCoy, who took a year off while he was in the Army, is back at defensive end, with the other defensive end spot up for grabs.
Cornish will have to be the
Running backs
leader on offense. Last season, he led the Jayhawks with 780 yards and nine touchdowns on the ground. For the Jayhawks to have another successful season, expect Cornish to average 20-25 rushing attempts per game. Kansas ran the ball an average of 35 times per game last season.
Without Cornish splitting time with Green in the backfield, freshman Angus Quigley and junior Brandon McAnderson need to step up and replace Green's production.
Wide receivers
Next season, the wide receivers will need to fill the shoes of Mark Simmons and Charles Gordon. Look for senior Brian Murph (33 catches, 368 yards, 2 touchdowns last season), along with sophomore Marcus Herford, junior Marcus Henry and senior Dominic Roux
to contribute at receiver.
"We had good speed at wide receiver, and we wanted to develop those players into good pass receivers and understanding the defense in front of them," Mangino said. "They're way ahead of where they were last year at this time."
Why Friday?
Mangino said the game was scheduled for Friday night instead of its usual Saturday afternoon slot because of Easter weekend and next weekend's Kansas Relays in Memorial Stadium.
"With a holiday weekend coming up and not having access to the stadium next weekend, we didn't want to practice Saturday night and then have our kids racing home Saturday night," Mangino said.

OUR OPINION
Another story angle needs to be revealed
You could almost laugh if the situation weren't so pathetic. The KU female students who auditioned to pose for Playboy and featured in a recent University Daily Kansan story gave plenty of satirical ammunition. One woman quoted the Bible to justify why she liked posing nude. Others said this would be great publicity for their prospective careers — because they won't have one after graduating with a degree in communications.
Not to attack these women's characters, but these comments are based off the only information provided about them in this story. As far as the article goes, those women's life ambition is to pose in the buff for a men's magazine. There may be more to these women, but that perspective is conspicuously absent.
Understandably, these women have every right to do with their bodies as they please. And if they work hard to keep in good shape, then no one should resent them for taking pride in their physique. That is not the issue here, though. Instead, the issue is about demanding monetary compensation for exposing one's body for the sole purpose of sexual arousal. Counter perspectives say this dehumanizes and demeans women, whether they consciously want to admit this or
Issue: The Kansan's report on posing in the buff
Stance: There's more to be said about Playboy and women's issues.
Ah, but then there is the sex appeal, right? And true to form, the story put girls in their underwear on its pages with relish. Sure this is a college newspaper. Most of its male demographic still has hormones as powerful as their metabolism. Nonetheless, this at least could have been an opportunity to show the negative aspects of this kind of activity as well.
not. The other error in the story is that it did not pass one of the first tests of journalism: Who cares? These women merely attended auditions for Playboy. None even had been chosen for individual photo shoots at that point. Covering this event was comparable to writing about KU students sending in tapes for the Real World.
So laugh or get upset or even turned on by the story as long as you are true to your own point of view and respect others' opinions as well.

Open-minded politics
COMMENTARY
POLYNTECHNOLOGY
Last week, I attended Allan Cigler's speech,
"The New Electoral Landscape
Two Political Churches and an Unbelieving Mass Electorate." Cigler argued that today's political leaders, especially recent presidents, have lost touch with the general public views of the parties. The truth is that the American public today is relatively open-minded, with only a small minority associating themselves with extremely liberal or conservative views. However, because of the highly polarized views of our leaders, especially presidents in the last few decades, we have misinterpreted close elections and other political factors and are under the impression that we are a divided nation. But the reality of the situation is we just keep putting people into office who represent extremist party views, because they seem to be the only choices.
JACOB WITTLER
opinion@kansan.com
A good example of this is the abortion issue. In recent elections, abortion has been a highly debated topic. Of course, the stereotypical argument has been that all Republicans are pro-life and all Democrats are pro-choice. According to a March 1 Gallup poll, however, only 49 percent of registered Republicans favor an abortion ban, while 47 percent oppose it, with 4 percent unsure about the subject.
So why are all Republicans associated with being pro-life? It is because the leaders of the party, including the president, take a far right stance on the issue. This could potentially be because the powerful groups that support the party, like the Christian right, favor these viewpoints. The
point that Cigler stressed in his speech was that political parties have become more concerned with powerful lobbyists than with the interests of the party
This is not to say that the Republican leaders have been the only ones guilty of this type of movement. Cigler argued that Democratic leaders have also isolated themselves far left of the party's base, with leaders taking extremely liberal viewpoints on issues like the environment to support big funders like the Sierra Club.
at large.
The main thing I took away from the speech was this: Public views are not as polarized as we think. The majority of people in this country are open-minded liberals and conservatives who don't take extreme views on most political issues and who could vote either way in a presidential election.
The only problem is that in recent years we haven't had many open-minded options on either side of the ballot. Is this because politicians are being too easily influenced by major interest groups, such as the Christian right and the Sierra Club? Or is it because the only people showing up to presidential primaries are hardcore conservatives and liberals, and so we end up nominating candidates with highly polarized views?
While I am a supporter of George W. Bush, I do believe that a lot of his policies and viewpoints are too conservative for the general public. And I definitely don't believe that someone as liberal as Sen. Tom Daschle

Sex education gets lesson from Board of Education
COMMENTARY
OK, so here's my pitch for my most recent blockbuster movie. It's got everything: Sex and scandal. I'm going to call it: "Kansas State Board of Education: A Cautionary Tale." Lights up on the inner chambers of the Kansas State Board of Education. Inside, we see the board members, drenched in sweat from a busted air conditioning unit. They are just winding down from a heated debate. The godless heatens in favor of teaching sex education with contraceptives are simply digging their way further down to hell. Cue Kathy Martin, board member from Clay Center.
Last month, Martin put forth a proposal to the board that would require sex education that focused on abstinence and the dangers of contraceptives. May I just say, thank God for the Kansas State Board of Education. Rarely before has one organization provided such fodder for ignorant, misinformed policies.
The evolution debate was getting old, but I knew we could count on our old buddies in Topeka to make asses of themselves once again.

Too long have we, the young generation of sex maniacs, been living in sin. Why, if it weren't for easy and affordable forms of birth control, I know my mind
MARK VIERTHALER
opinion@hansan.com
I, for one, stand by Ms. Martin's proposal.
would not even be tempted by the thought of female flesh. Never mind the fact that abstinence-only sex education doesn't work.
A 2004 Washington Post article discussed the dangers of abstinence only sex-education. According to these federally funded programs, condoms do not protect from STIs as much as they claim. Good to know that not only are we encouraging kids to not carry condoms with them, we're putting the fear of God into them as well.
To make this situation more priceless, the board doesn't even really have any idea what it's discussing. Are they talking about abstinence-only education? Or abstinence-based education? What about abstinence until marriage?
"At this point I'm highly confused," said Sue Gambon, board member from Shawnee, in an article in The Kansas City Star.
education already encourages abstinence, followed by the morally lax choices, such as spermicidal lubricants.
So, not only are we hoping to discourage sex by keeping our kids ignorant, we're not doing it in a clear and concise manner. But here's the kicker: Kansas sex
It's nice to know the people out there actually teaching the subject understand the importance of teaching birth control methods in conjunction with abstinence. What's scary is those above the teachers feel abstinence only is more than enough.
In the same article in the Star, a Wichita sex education instructor named Charles Jenny said in an ideal world, you could teach kids not to have sex and it would work.
"But the real world out there is that some people are not going to do that."
And to make sure that our children are being brought up with the proper moral code, Ms. Martin said our schools should risk losing their accreditation if they do not focus on abstinence. Thank God for her. Thank God for someone willing to stand up to proven birth control methods.
So, remember all you sexual deviants out there: It's not your fault you're horny and you use condoms. It's the fact that nobody taught you any better. Take heart, even if your sex-education was substandard, you've got yourselves a part in my movie.
Vierthaler is a Dodge City junior in journalism.
Wittier is a Wichita freshman in journalism and political science.
(D-S.D.) would be a good pick to lead our country, even though he is one of the early favorites. I say now that student elections are over, let's turn our focus to the early workings of the 2008 presidential election. Let's get an early look at all the potential candidates, inform ourselves of their platforms and nominate an open-minded candidate from each party. That way we won't have to pick between two extreme views this time around, and voting won't come down to picking the lesser of two evils. If we can pull that off, I think we will elect a president who is not out of touch with public opinion and will work for the people. Now that's something, no matter what your political affiliation, I think we can all agree on.

Karma. Many hear the term and resolve to interpret it as the reward for a good deed. The cyclical pattern of this ideology, however, is not in the least about gain. Instead, the idea behind it is to maintain a balance and to strive toward a compassionate society.
COMMENTARY
Karma is giving without the expectation of receiving anything in return. I got my first taste of karma in the most unpredictable way.
A true taste of Karma
The problem, however, of the misinterpretation of karma and many other seemingly selfless acts is the idea of gain. Simply put, if one's sole concern is gain, the cycle ceases to exist and nothing is given.

Following a thorough scanning of a quaint hole-in-the-wall cafe that a friend recommended, I randomly chose a booth by the window and sat down to what I thought would be a decent meal. Instead, I was greeted by a snappy, frazzled, fed-up waitress.

Later that evening, I continued the cycle. After finishing a load of laundry, I stuck 50 cents into the washer for the next person doing a load.
After rudely shoving the menu at me, snapping when I asked for specials, mumbling under her breath that she hated her job as she wrote the order, and coming back with the wrong plate, twice. I was slightly frustrated. Discontent with the rude treatment, I was ready to leave without even touching the $7 meal, let alone a tip.
Pavlik is a Plano, Texas, freshman in journalism.
Then a simple thought occurred. What could that waitress's life be like? What had she gone through that very morning? Did she have kids to provide for, but could not? Did she get into a car accident? Was she terminally ill?
It was more than likely none of those problems, but it must have been something. Something caused her to behave in the manner she did. The unhappiness that she obviously felt must have been hastened by the way a majority of others probably chose to treat her, because of her behavior.
In a rash decision, I left the cold meal along with a $30 tip at the table and walked out the door.
Some weeks later, after having long forgotten the waitress and the less-than-satisfying meal, I received a letter unrelated to the dinner incident stating that $40 would be returned to my bank account for an overcharge.
It was karma. What goes around comes around. Perhaps
The ideology of karma stems from an ancient Buddhist concept that has been adapted by today's society as a chain of cause and effect, giving a little in hopes of receiving a lot.
The fact that I gave a little bit and got even more in return could have been a simple coincidence, but the monetary reward was not something that I sought.

Kansas to start away game set
BY AUSSA BAUER
abauer@kansan.com
KANSAN STaff WRITER
After a healthy dose of home games, Kansas is on the road again.
The Jayhawks (24-13, 6-6) headed to Stillwater, Okla., tonight for a three-game set against the Cowboys of Oklahoma State (19-11, 3-6).
Even though Kansas has been successful at home this season, posting an 11-2 record at Hogland Ballpark. Oklahoma State is a smooth 16-1 in the confines of Allie P. Reynolds Stadium. Named after New York Yankee pitching legend Allie Reynolds, the Cowboys have only left the comforts of home 13 times this season.
While Kansas will play its 25th away game of the season tonight, the team has accumulated a 13-11 record away from Hoglund Ballpark. This includes road games against seven nationally ranked opponents.
Oklahoma State, on the other hand, is 3-10 on the road, offering explanation for the Cowboys current eighth place
ranking in the Big 12 Conference.
"I think they've been a little inconsistent," Kansas coach Ritch Price said. "You look at their home record, they've played a lot of home games in their non-conference season."
The Cowboys are a perfect 3-0 in the Big 12 at home and a dismal 0-6 in Big 12 road games.
our stadium" paradise," Price said.
"It's a hitter's paradise," Price said.
"It's a short ballpark and the wind blows out. If you put the ball near, you've got a good chance of turning the game into a launching pad."
None of which matter against a team that hasn't lost more than two consecutive home games since Reynolds Stadium opened in 1981.
Out to keep balls from flying off that launching pad is senior closer Don Cyzz (5-0) and company. As a staff, the Jayhawk pitches have a 4.21 ERA, compared to a 5.08 mark the Cowboys have put up.
the Cowboys lead the NCAA with 12 saves, the Cowboys have yet to record one.
"We're going to have to pitch really well to keep the scores down," Price said of throwing in a ballpark that is just 330 feet down the left and right field lines.
That will be especially important against a team with a .322 batting average as a unit, including 39 home runs. The Jayhawks are hitting .282, but collected just 13 hits in a two-game series against the 2-26 North Dakota State Bison.
Price chose to play his younger guys in the midweek series, wanting some at bats for his less-experienced players. He kept that in mind when watching how his offense did against North Dakota State.
"You like to see those guys get on the field," Price said. "At the same time, you'd like to see them play better and deserve the right to play again. But obviously we're a completely different club when we play on the weekend."
Still looking for a Kansas-record 275th career hit, senior shortstop Ritchie Price is heading to a fairly safe bet of where to find it. Price is a
career 550 hitter against Oklahoma State, nabbing 22 hits in 40 at bats.
State, mobsbing 22 hrs.
For the Cowboys, junior third baseman Tyler Mach is on a tear. Snapping a four-game losing streak on Tuesday against Dallas Baptist University, Mach led the way going 3-5 with a career-high five RBI and a pair of home runs. Mach leads his club with nine home runs a 39 RBI.
Sitting at an even .500 in the Big 12, the Jayhawks are virtually a lock for an appearance in the NCAA tournament. All they have to do now is want it.
"It was kind of lackadaisical, like we were going through the motions," sophomore third baseman Erik Morrison said after hitting his team-leading ninth homer on Wednesday afternoon against North Dakota State. "Hopefully we'll pick it up at the end of the week and get going this weekend."

Third baseman gets second chance at D-1
BY SHAWN SHROYER
sshroyer@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
One new face Kansas will see in the Oklahoma State lineup this weekend will be Tyler Mach. The junior third baseman and jokingly aspiring professional golfer may be new to the Cowboy lineup this season, but he's no stranger to Division I baseball.
no honors.
In 2004, Mach was named to the all-tournament team in the Oxford, Miss., NCAA Regional as a member of the Washington Huskies. But issues with his grades sent him to the junior college level.
"I fell behind in the classroom, actually, so I ended up having to go to a junior college to catch up," Mach said.
safec
The next season at Edmonds Community College in Lynnwood, Wis., Mach made first team all-league and
got his grades in order. When it came time to return to the D-1 level, he decided a smaller environment would be better for him. That's what sold him on Oklahoma State.
"It's just a nice little college town. It's different from big Seattle," Mach said. "I wanted to give it a shot."
salt. I waited a minute.
In his first year back playing D-1 ball, Mach has started all but one game for the Cowboys and leads the team with 46 hits, nine home runs, 39 RBI and 80 total bases. He's also second on the team with a .387 batting average and third on the team with 26 runs and a .672 slugging percentage.
Travis Ingle, director of baseball operations at Oklahoma State, said Mach has emerged as a team leader.
"He's been huge for our program, the way he plays on the field and the way he carries himself off the field, as well," Ingle said. "Everything we'd heard about, he's delivered."
year in the Despite Mach's contributions, Oklahoma State has struggled as of late. The Cowboys began the season 15-4, but have dropped seven of their past 11 games and are eighth in the Big 12 with a 3-6 record. Mach can only hope his 3-for-5 day against Dallas Baptist on Tuesday with two home runs and five RBI will spark his team to play better in the conference.
Mach's numbers match up well in the Big 12, too. As of Thursday, he had the third most RBI in the conference and was tied for the third-most home runs and seventh-highest batting average.
"I'm more mature, physically and mentally, and just better prepared for the Big 12 than I was my freshman year in the Pac-10," Mach said.
"It's never fun to lose, especially getting swept," Mach said. "You just got to learn from it and move on with it."
There's nothing unusual about Mach's attitude as a baseball player and his numbers could have him playing baseball professionally someday, but Mach certainly has an interesting idea of a dream job.
Mach's personal bio on the Oklahoma State athletics' Web site says his dream job is to be a professional golfer. How it got into his bio was a mystery to him, "I don't even remember filling that thing out," he said, but he couldn't deny the advantages of such a career. "They play golf every day. You don't got to run, you just go out there and swing the club," he said.
chloe, he said.
Mach admitted his chances at being a pro golfer were slim, though. "I'm actually pretty bad at it," he said.

Kansas hopes to rebound after Missouri shutout
SOFTBALL

KANSAN SENIOR SPORTSWRIVER
After a team meeting on the field that lasted more than 15 minutes, the Kansas softball team emerged from the dugout. Heads down, blank stares and somber faces — the disappointing loss to rival Missouri was tough to swallow.
tion this weekend. "We need to move forward," she said.
Junior pitcher Kassie Humphreys said the team wanted to take the way it felt after Wednesday night's shutout loss to Missouri and use it for motivation this weekend.
Kansas (21-20, 2-6) has an opportunity to move forward from the loss when it plays Texas Tech in a weekend series at Arrocha Ballpark. The Jayhawks and Red Raiders will face off at 2 p.m. Saturday.
urday.
Texas Tech (16-24, 4-4) split a double-header with Texas-Arlington Wednesday night. It will face another double-tight against North Texas.
Kansas hopes to extend its five-game winning streak against Texas Tech. The Red Raiders are led by senior pitcher Erin Crawford, who ranks 12th in the conference among pitchers. Crawford is 10-9 on the season with a 2.47 ERA. As of Wednesday night. Tech has won four of its last six games.
day night, Teecare was well known. "They've had some good victories and they're not going to be any pushover," Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said.
cy Bunge said.
Kansas will have two days of practice before Texas Tech on Saturday, giving the team time to learn from Wednesday's loss. Once again, the Jayhawks were unable to get clutch hits. Kansas had trouble on defense as well, allowing three Missouri players to reach base on buns. One bunt rolled around on the infield and turned into a double, another rolled into right field.
double, another team the weekend will be regaining its confidence, especially on offense. The team has just four hits in its past three games. One of the bright spots has been the Jayhawks pitching. Humphreys ranks second in Big 12 pitching and senior Serena Settlemier ranks third. Each is allowing less than two earned runs on the season.
Bunge said her team needed to use the time rediscovering its confidence.
"Mentally they have to bounce back very, very quickly." Bunge said. "This game's about confidence and right now we sure don't look like a very confident team."

Tonight: As you like.
HOROSCOPES
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) *****
Others will want you to defer to them. You could be as stubborn as a Bull, or easygoing. It's your cell. You might want to just not get involved, and let others not only have their way, but see the ramifications of their actions.
Tonight. Say yes.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) *****
Emphasize what you can do, and don't
g catch caught in a roadblock or a need to
change someone's mind. If you really let go
and let others be, your sense of well-being
will be enhanced. Whiz through your work.
Tonight: Easy does it.
CANCER (June 21- July 22) *****
Your purrse sense of humor and unusual creativity just might save the day when dealing with a tough situation. Don't say yes to anything you aren't comfortable with. Loosen up and let your mind wander.
Tonight: Your weekend right.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ***
Knowing when to vanish can make a considerable difference in what goes down.
You might be overwhelmed; honor those feelings. You might be able to call an early day, or better yet, the weekend early.
Tonight. Happy as can be.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) ******
Speak your mind, and others will hear you.
Don't automaticly assume the worst. Go

thinking will help off. Make calls of importance
later in the day.
Tonight. Others delight in hearing from you.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ★★★
Strap in your wallet and think positively.
What you feel might be going on could be very different from reality. Someone is tough and inordinately demanding. You can and will say no. Listen to suggestions.
Tonight. Easy does it.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) *****
You might want to rethink a decision more carefully at this point. You might not always be as in control as you would like. Understand what is going on with those around you, lighten up and live for the moment.
*Tonight.* As you like.
SAGITTIARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) **
Maintain a low profile and/or take the day off if you can. You need and deserve personal time away from the rat race. You will return much better for the time off. Do whatever you can to clear out of and away from the daily grind.
Tonight: Mysterious works.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ★★★★
Your intentions might be excellent, but you will have to wade through others' stuff to get your message heard. You will be greeted by success, and as a result, you and others will be happy. You just need to use your stick-to-liveness.
Tonight* kick up a storm
AOUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ******
You might want to rethink a personal matter or be more careful with someone you care about. You could be a bit off or making a bigger story out of a situation than you need to. Lighten up.
Tonight: In the limelight.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) *****
Your vision of what might be workable could be a lot different from someone else's. Do some information-gathering, and you will come up with good solutions. Others will naturally bend for you if you do your pleasant manner.
Tonight: Away you go.

West coast powerhouses, such as UCLA and USC are the strongest squads in the 17-team field.
"It's a really strong field and
all the good teams from the West Coast are there," Kansas coach Ross Randall said.
Kansas has struggled to find success in recent weeks, and needs to use this weekend's tournament to gain momentum heading into the Big 12 Championship, held April 24-25.
"Hopefully we'll get a few of the guys to play a little bit better and we can go into the Big 12 with a little more confidence," Randall said.

ROWING Kansas to compete at rowing championship
The Kansas rowing team will head to Oak Ridge, Tenn., this weekend for the Southern Intercollegiate Rowing Association Championship. The match will be the team's fourth match of the year.

The race this weekend will be held on Melton Hill Lake. The team will compete against Kansas State, Wake Forrest, North Carolina and Clemson in the two-day event.
The Southern IRA's will prepare the team for the Big 12 Invitational that will take place on April 30 in Kansas City, Kan., along with the NCAA Championships.

TENNIS

The KU tennis team will take on Colorado at 11 a.m. Saturday in Boulder, Colo.

After the victory and loss, Kansas has a record of 12-8. The Jayhawks are 3-5 in Big 12 Conference play.
No. 46 Colorado has an overall record of 10-7 and a conference record of 4-5. Its last match resulted in a loss against Oklahoma State. Kansas has three road matches remaining on the regular season schedule, followed by the Big 12 Tennis Tournament in Waco, Texas.

DOWN THE HALL
Defensive line has big shoes to fill
TIM HALL
thall@kansan.com
y
It's hard to imagine mentioning football in the springtime when the Kansas baseball team is in the middle of its season.
But the annual spring scrimage is at 7 tonight, so KU fans can finally get a look at their Fort Worth Bowl Champions.
Then-senior quarterback Jason Swanson was the MVP of the Fort Worth Bowl and played a vital part in turning the season around. But the team Kansas coach Mark Mangino will field on Sept. 3 will be a totally different team than the Fort Worth Bowl team. The defense lost a lot of talented, leaving a lot of big shoes to fill.
Take a look at the defensive side of the ball and recite to yourself the players that have either graduated or moved on: Charles Gordon, Nick Reid, Charlton Kee, Jermial Ashley, Kevin Kane, Banks Floodman, Tim Allen and Brandon Perkins. The Associated Press named Reid and Keith All-Big 12 First-Team players last season. Reid was the Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year last season. Perkins set the KU record with five sacks in a single game against Louisiana Tech.
The Jawhays had a successful season last year, finishing with a record of 7-5 and a bowl victory. Kansas drilled the University of Houston 42-13, and proved that its defense was one of the best in the nation.
The defense also lost half of its secondary in Theo Baines and Rodney Fowler.
It doesn't even end there.
Those core outstanding players were the glue that kept KU bowls hopes alive last season. Without this defense, Kansas would have only won three games last season.
The total defense of 308 yards per game allowed was good for 19th in the nation and first in the Big 12 North.
So Kansas loses its quarterback and the third-best run defense in America and things are supposed to improve? Granted, Kansas will not have to play Big 12 South powers Texas and Oklahoma next season. In non-conference games next season, Kansas scheduled a road game against Toledo and a nonpushover home game against South Florida, which is a member of the Big East Conference. South Florida hammered Louisville, a team that won nine of its 11 games, 45-15 at home last season.
The Jayhawks finished the season with a run defense that ranked third in the nation. The 88.1 rushing yards per game allowed was only topped by Ohio State (74.5) and Tennessee (82.5).
I'm very interested to see the new defense at the scrimmage. I have no doubt that sophomore linebacker Mike Rivera will have an instant effect on the lineup next season and will run around the field like a madman.
But who will help sophomore cornerback Aqib Talib and senior safety Jerome Kemp in the secondary next season? Who will anchor the other linebacker positions with Rivera?
Hall is a Woodbridge, Va., senior in journalism.
After tonight's scrimmage, we should know a little more about the KU defense. Whoever ends up starting though, last season's players set the bar extremely high.

Sinclair's goal was set up by one of the Jayhawks's only opportunity to score in the second half. Junior forward Holly Gault had the ball with only one defender to beat, but got tangled up and fell to the ground. No penalty was called, and Canadian goalkeeper Karina LeBlanc kicked the ball downfield past the Kansas midfielders.
Kansas tried to rally in the final 12 minutes to tie the match, but a slew of offsides calls took away potentially open looks on the offensive end for the Jayhawks.
Sinclair received the ball and would have had a wide open shot if not for a penalty by the Jayhawk defense. On the ensuing penalty kick, Sinclair snuck the ball into the bottom right corner of the net past the freshman Hanley.

the spring season for the Jayhawks, who are 1-1-2 for the season.
Even with the loss, the Jayhawks can find positives in playing a close game against the Canadians, who had already beat Louisville and Purdue 9-0 and 6-1, respectively.
"I knew we could play them competitively," Kansas coach Mark Francis said. "Otherwise we wouldn't be playing against them."
The main reason Kansas was able to play competitively with Canada for most of the game was defense.
WOMEN'S BASKETBALL
Throughout the spring season, the Jayhawk defense has allowed more than one goal only once, and their opponents have averaged just 1.25 goals per game.
Canada had possession of the ball for almost the entire second half but failed on their shot attempts because of defensive plays made by Hanley, freshman defender Kelsey Archuleta, and junior defender Nikki Alvarez.
"Defensively, we did a good job," Francis said. "Spring is all about improving and playing the best competition."

Seniors remember their final season
BY MICHAEL PHILLIPS mphillips@kansan.com KANSAST WORK WRITER
Two things were celebrated at the women's basketball banquet Thursday night; the accomplishments of this year's team and the birthday of coach Bonnie Henrickson.
The team received a standing ovation and Henrickson was serenaded by the crowd gathered in the ballroom of the Kansas Union.
Since the women's basketball seniors traditionally do not address the crowd after their Senior Night, it was their opportunity to give a speech. Guard Kaylee Brown was the first to speak. She thanked her parents, who live in Oklahoma, for driving up to Lawrence for almost every game this season.
"Also thanks to my teammates," Brown said, "for making me a stronger person."

The Saudi Arabians had food sampling and traditional floor seating with pillows, the Iranians had a tryon-a-head scarf table, the Taiwanese showed some of the most spectacular traditions and landmarks through
a series of posters and the Paraguay-ans taught about Yerba Mate.
Those were just a few of the highlights of the International Student Association's annual World Expo on Friday afternoon at the Ballroom in the Kansas Union. University of Kansas students, children, Lawrence High School students and Lawrence community members were some of
the people who attended the five hour exhibition.
"People have been enjoying coming to see things from all over the world," said Horacio Vargas, La Paz, Bolivia, sophomore. "I love helping and interacting with people from all over the world."
Vargas said the World Expo was the main reason he joined Hea. He said
it was a unique opportunity to share his culture with the world and to learn about others. He said he'd been at the expo for the entire time and had enjoyed wandering around to other exhibits just as much as staying at the Bolivia table. He was playing a miniguitar from Brazil as he talked.

AIDS walk a success

KANSOAN STAFT WRITER
KU students and faculty gathered early Saturday morning to raise money for AIDS research and those with AIDS. They participated in the 14th annual AIDS awareness walk, which was put on by the Douglas County AIDS Project.
Saturday's event, called "Hitting the Bricks to Stop AIDS," had about 300 participants walking in teams or individually. Six teams were from the University. There was a team from Queers and Allies and one from the School of Social Welfare, including faculty, retired faculty and doctoral students. There also were teams from the School of Psychology

Class aims to prove Lawrence is friendly

A homeless man handed the paper to Colleen Skaggs, "I hope I was helpful," he said as he handed the survey to her.
The survey, conducted under the social welfare class Advanced Communication and Advocacy Practice, focused on the options that Lawrence provides for the homeless. The class of 17 students, taught by Helen Hartnett, assistant professor of social welfare, helped students grasp a better understanding of the homeless.
Skaggs, Lawrence graduate student, said that the homeless liked knowing they were helping them with education.
"This has been a great experience for students, myself and fellow researcher, Toni Johnson, and the people who have participated," she said. "It has provided a hands-on opportunity to practice and to share stories with people the students may not have had contact with in another way."
The survey in part was conducted because a report named Lawrence the second "meanest city" to the homeless in the United States. The title was given in an annual survey, which was released in January 2006, conducted by the National Coalition for the Homeless and the National Law Center on Homelessness and Poverty.
"We want to get their opinion of how Lawrence treats them and respond to their needs," said Carla Wozniak, Chicago, Ill., graduate student.

At first the incentives were a concern because the students wanted to give participants something they would use. "We wanted to give them choices and provide things that maybe the shelter doesn't have for them," Krista Lee, Topeka graduate student, said.
"They have been very willing to help out."
The class also brought various items to give the homeless after they filled out the survey. Items include socks, batteries, radios, bus passes and water bottles.
Instead of just proving that January survey was wrong, the class wanted to promote community awareness.
Skaggs said. "We've had the opportunity to meet with these people and talk with them."
"We want to give a voice to the people that are affected and take the information and advocate public concern."

Results of the survey as a whole will not be ready until the end of May. The class cannot comment yet on any of their findings.

Not only do the students benefit and learn, Skaggs said this really put things in perspective.

Spring is here, and several varieties of fruits and vegetables are sprouting out of the ground to complement the season. The Pelathe Community Resource Center food pantry will be offering fresh produce for many low-income families around town because of the new produce, all thanks to a group of KU students.
Environment Action to Revitalize The Heartland, a program out of the KU Center for Community Outreach, is sponsoring the upkeep of the organic garden.
"It's been a learning experience for me," said Chris Proctor, Ottawa junior.
Proctor is one of two co-coordinators of the EARTH program, which does environmental community service work and aims to inspire others in the community to become more aware of taking care of the environment.

The Kansas Board of Regents established the KU School of Medicine. The four-year School of Medicine was a merge of the two-year medical school that was already part of the Mount Oread campus and three schools already in existence in Kansas City. Chancellor Strong said the school would be the "best medical school between Chicago and San Francisco."

Before the KU on Wheels bus system, students used to wait for the 'KU Loop', which was part of a system of streetcars that once occupied Lawrence for 23 years. Just

a year after the system of electric streetcars was running through Lawrence, the 'KU Loop' was added to help the students get up the hill for just five cents a ride.
The streetcars had been a part of Lawrence transportation since the 1870s, but the cars were pulled by mules and horses before the electric power. It was not only a better way to get to campus than walking in the snow; it provided jobs for many KU students. Students could be conductors for 17 cents an hour.
Besides jobs, it also provided entertainment for campus pranksters. Students stole the KU letters that decorated the cars, 'rocked the car', disconnected the trolley from the overhead wires, jumped on for free rides and committed other small acts of vandalism.
The streetcar system did not last long in Lawrence. Most of the tracks were abandoned or ripped up to be replaced by a bus system.
At 10:38 p.m. the University

of Kansas Union roared with the sound of an explosion. It started in a sixth floor women's restroom and raged in the upper stories for hours causing about $1 million in damages.
Bill Rowlands was the night manager on duty at the Union and discovered the fire. He said, "It sounded like a light bulb exploding and I ran upstairs. I think that everyone in the building noticed the smoke about the same time and evacuated the building."
About 100 students helped
the Lawrence Fire Department fight the fire that went about 30 feet into the air above the Union. The fire was attributed to arson during what was later called the, "Days of Rage" in Lawrence.
The "Days of Rage" included two other firebomb attacks on a furniture store and a fraternity. There were several other incidents that included protests, sniper fire and racial confrontations.
and racial contensions.
No one was ever convicted of arson for the fire at the union. A curfew was put in place for four days in Lawrence for the protection of KU students and Lawrence residents. Several arrests were made including the student body president. The spring semester ended early and final examinations were canceled, but the violence did not cease.

Police haven't received any reports about the latest incidents, Lt. Wally Sparks said.
The road is near Interstate 94, providing quick access and escape for whoever dumps the diapers, he said. He said there was little police could do, unless a witness can provide a vehicle description or license plate number.

Car stereo in N.Y. packs explosive bass
NEWYORK - That's one booming stereo.
The police bomb squad, responding Friday to a call of a suspicious device inside a parked minivan in midtown Manhattan, blew out the vehicle's windows — only to find out the item inside was simply stereo equipment, police said.
The incident occurred when police received a 911 call from a passer-by who spotted the device inside a red minivan parked outside 4 E. 67th St., said police spokesman Dennis Laffin. It was a canister about the size of two shoe boxes, with

teachers put futures in hands of foot fetishists
LITTLE ROCK — The Arkansas Teacher Retirement System doesn't encourage its members to call phone sex lines. But that changed this week, thanks to a typo.
The retirement system sent out letters to retirees and active teachers explaining how to name beneficiaries in the event of their death, said David Malone, the association's executive director.
Some of the pages in the letter listed the correct toll-
free number associated with the program, he said. But one page listed a toll-free number that brought callers to a recording of a seductive woman's voice, promoting a 69-cents per minute foot fetish sex line.
"We've had a few calls about it," Malone said. "Most everybody's been pretty good natured."
The letter with the wrong telephone number went out to about 50,000 system members. Another 50,000 will get letters with only the correct number.

CAMPUS Low survey response worries KU Libraries
rn
A low number of undergraduate students have responded to a survey sent out by KU Libraries.
Stella Bentley, dean of libraries, sent the LibQUAL+ survey on April 10 to all graduate students, faculty and staff, and to 3,000 randomly selected undergraduate students to ask them various questions about the libraries. The survey must be completed by April 28.
Only 63 undergraduates had responded as of last week, compared to 373 graduate students, 159 faculty members and 136 staff members.
The last time KU Libraries sent out the survey, in 2003 more undergraduates,241 responded than the other groups.
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 3A
Only 156 graduate students responded to that survey, while the faculty and staff numbers remained about the same as this year's totals so far.
It might seem like just another survey at a time when several other campus organizations are sending yearly e-mail surveys out, but Bill Myers, assessment coordinator for KU Libraries, said that the libraries made much of their decisions based on the results of the survey, and that if undergraduates didn't respond, their voice wouldn't be heard.
Myers said that since the last time KU Libraries sent out an LibQUAL+ survey, the libraries had made major changes "as a direct result of the input."
The changes included adding 200 computer workstations and 60 wireless laptops, redesigning the library's Web site and increasing the collections budget by $1.4 million.

Memorial service to be held at 4 p.m. today
OBITUARY
A memorial service for Robert Brawley, professor of painting, will be held today in Baldwin. The service will be at 4 p.m. today on the
Brawley died in Overland Park Friday after a six-month battle with cancer.
A. W. Kline
The 68-year-old professor had been a member of the
KU faculty since 1988 and served as the chair of the art department for five years. He earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts and Master of Fine Arts from the San Francisco Art Institute.
In a press release Friday, Judith McCrea, chairwoman of the department of art, said Brawley's work was hyperrealistic because of his "choosing objects with complex narratives implications and symbolism."
"He was a highly respected teacher and intellectual whose knowledge of art reflected in widespread pursuits in philosophy, theory and art criticism. He will be greatly missed," she said.
His work has been in more than 18 public museum exhibits, including the National Museum of American Art in Washington, D.C., and the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City, Mo.
Brawley is survived by his wife, Judith Cramer; two sons; a daughter; a sister; two brothers; six grandchildren and a great-grandson. -Catherine Odson
CRIME
Accused killer planned to eat victim
BY SEAN MURPHY
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PURCELL, Okla. — The man accused of killing a 10-year-old neighbor girl for an elaborate plan to eat human flesh joked about cannibalism on his online diary, discussed the effects of not taking his anti-depression medication and mentioned "dangerously weird" fantasies.
All he wanted in life, Kevin Ray Underwood wrote in his blog, was "to be able to live like a normal person."
People who knew Underwood described him Sunday as a quiet, "boring" and seemingly trustworthy young man. His mother who lived across town called him a "wonderful boy."
"This is something that I don't know where it came from," Connie Underwood said of her son through tears in a brief telephone interview with The Associated Press. "I would like to be able to tell her family how sorry we are. I just feel so terrible."
Kevin Underwood, a 26-year-old grocery store stocker in this small community 40 miles south of Oklahoma City, was arrested Friday. Investigators searched his apartment after he aroused their
suspicions at a checkpoint and found a large plastic tub in a bedroom closet. According to a police affidavit, he confessed that he killed Jamie Rose Bolin, telling FBI agents: "Go ahead and arrest me. She is in there. I chopped her up."
Jamie's unclothed body was inside the tub, along with a towel used to soak up blood, officials said. Police said that, while there were deep saw marks on the girl's neck, she had not been dismembered.
Kevin Underwood, who is to be formally charged with first-degree murder Monday, lived alone in an apartment downstairs from the one where Jamie lived with her father.
Authorities believe Kevin Underwood killed the girl Wednesday, when she disappeared after going to a library, by beating and smothering her.
Investigators found meat tenderizer and barbecue skewers that he planned to use on the body, McClain County District Attorney Tim Kuykendall said.
On his blog, an online diary that he had kept since September 2002, Kevin Underwood described himself as "single, bored, and lonely, but other than that, pretty happy."

AIDS
David Noffsinger/KANSAN
Participants in DCAP's 14th annual AIDS awareness walk gather early Saturday morning in front of Macell's in downtown Lawrence. This year's theme was "Hitting the bricks to stop AIDS."

THANK YOU AIDS CAMPAIGN
ADS WAR
DCAP surpassed its expectations of money that was raised for the awareness walk. Expectations were set at $12,000, but the organization raised more than $12,400. Starbucks won first place as the biggest contributor.
Erin Chaput, Ellsworth Hall resident assistant and Lawrence junior, invited Geri Summers, the executive director of DCAP, to speak to some of her social welfare classes.
Chaput thought it would be a good idea for some residents on her floor in Ellsworth Hall to get involved and raise money. Eight people who live in Ellsworth walked and several others donated money.
"It was a difficult process to get some of them up at seven on a Saturday morning," Chaput said. "But I think they all had a fun time."
All participants were provided a free breakfast buffet at Macell's, 1031 New Hampshire St., which is where the walk started. NetworQ, a group that supports and educates the gay and lesbian community, put on the breakfast.
Steve Maceli, owner of Maceli's, was more than willing to help out.
"We were providing the breakfast as a service to bring about enthusiasm for the walk," said Kim Kreicker, vice chairwoman of NetworQ. "DCAP is an important organization for us."
"Since my business has started to grow, I've been able to help the group more," he said. "They have supported me when the business was smaller, and now I have a banquet hall and can help them throw better fundraiser's. I support the community and the community supports me."
DCAP was grateful that it could use the facility. In the past, the starting point of the walk has been in various places around Lawrence, such as the gazebo in South Park.
"We like to have the walk downtown," Michele Weigand, member of the Board of Directors of DCAP, said. "There were huge benefits for us having it at Macelli." It gave us a place just in case it rained and kept us downtown, which is where we want to keep the walk."
The route for the walk centered around downtown. Participants could either do a one-mile or a three-mile walk. The three-mile walk took walkers by historical markers of downtown Lawrence, such
as the home of Phog Allen farmer KU basketball coach
Overall, Summers was "ecstatic" about the turnout and the money that was raised.
"This walk shows we have a community that cares for those that have HIV and helps raise money to support AIDS awareness programs," she said. "We help support to give dollars towards HIV testing and free condoms."

Garden
Proctor is an environmental studies major and loves to be outdoors, so this was a great project for him, he said.
He became involved with the project when he was approached by the director of the KU Center for Community Outreach, who asked him to help. Though he wanted to, he said he didn't know anything about gardening beyond the mini garden he grew when he was a kid.
He now knows how to mineralize the garden, set it up for proper drainage and more. Now that the sprouts are up, he said he could see the work he's done and it's "amazing."
"There were weeds the size of me," Proctor said about when they started last fall.
Years ago, the Pelathe center had a garden, but according to Teresa Staskal, director of
the center, the garden was not planted last year. When she was approached by EARTH, who wanted to take over the responsibility for the garden, she was thrilled, she said.
"I thought that was a win-win situation," she said.
The Pelathe center mostly stocks dried, boxed and canned goods in its food pantry, which are given by members of the community, or by a group who has sponsored a food drive, Staskal said.
The garden will add fresh food and variety to the mundane selection they have, she said. Some farmers in the past have donated excess produce, and this year, the center is setting up a booth at the Farmers Market, starting April 29, to collect excess produce, she said.
The Pelathe center's food pantry serves around 75 families with basic food supplies in quantities based on the number of people in the family. The center also is hoping to eventually use the produce from the garden for cooking classes to be held in the center for the community.
Jamil Akram, the other co-coordinator of EARTH and Kansas City, Mo., senior, said that every other weekend, four to 20 people come help with the garden.
It's not EARTH's only project though. It also is involved in the upkeep of the Black Jack Battlefield in Baldwin.
"What we want to do is get people involved in environmental issues," he said. "We tend to lead by example."
He said EARTH also was planning activities for Earth Week, which will include a tree planting, a lecture on how and what to recycle and working more on the Pelathe center garden.

Expo
Flags from about 42 countries hung over each of the tables representing their respective countries. Many more flags stood in the center of the room, making the room colorful. The University owns flags from at least 95 percent of the world's nations, Vargas said, and he came in early to help set them up in the ballroom for the event.
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
Displays included clothing, rugs, money from each country laptop computer slide shows and even food samples.
The Saudi Arabian exhibit was by far the largest display, taking up most of the southwest corner of the ballroom. It utilized three tables and formed an enclosure where people could sit and try Arabian food, Saudi traditional coffee, menthol tea, baklava, Bassposah — a sweet corn bread — and dates.
"We tried to mix everything: modern, culture," said Nassar Alshalam, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, graduate student. "We always try to keep our heritage."
Many of the students were dressed in a traditional bshat cloak dress, cloth on their heads and crowned with an iqal, a double-coiled ring that holds on the cloth on their heads. The walls all around the area were filled with posters of Mecca, Saudi Arabian landscapes, photos from a Saudi Arabian photographer and posters that the students had made to inform people about their culture and fashion. Leilah Noguer, Asuncion, Paraguay, senior, sat behind the small Paraguay table at the entrance to the ballroom. She said about four students had worked on their display, which had brochures in English and little figurines to show native clothing; white dresses with colored, full skirts and lace trim.
She said her friend brought the leather-covered thermos and a cup made of hollowed bull horn from home. She said she drinks Yerba Mate tea out of one just like it every day. The cup had a small metal straw with a strainer at the bottom. She poured ice water and the herb into the cup and the straw filtered out the leaves
She said Paraguay was the only nation to have Yerba Mate traditionally. Every other country drinks Mate, which is the same thing, but with hot water. She brought Yerba Mate to the United States with her, she said, because it's so expensive to buy here.
Taiwan's small display of posters, Chinese character cut outs and banners made up their small but eye-catching display. Kuorey Mao, Taipei, Taiwan, graduate student, said he put together the display mostly by himself with materials he got from the Taiwanese consulate in Kansas City.
One poster had a unique coral reef structure off a small island off Taiwan. Though it looked manmade because it looked like a combination between a heart shape and a guitar, he said it was a natural landmark. Another poster showed the Firecracker Festival, where professional extreme sportsman climb up wooden columns to a platform with firecracker columns. It's a race to light the columns first, but the structure is about 10 stories tall, Mao said, so it's quite a challenge.

OUR OPINION
Parking just got more expensive again
Rising gas prices aren't the only concern for commuter students at the University.
a
ciation
For the second year in a row, the cost of a parking permit has increased. It will cost $160 to park in a yellow lot beginning next fall. That's $20, or 22 percent, more than it cost this academic year. What's more alarming is that the new rate is twice what it cost to park on campus two years ago.
The Parking Department announced last spring that a rate increase was likely to begin affecting parking rates in fall 2005, and it delivered on that. The increase was needed, it said, to construct a new Park & Ride lot on West Campus and to provide maintenance for existing parking lots. When questioned about raising rates more gradually over several years, the department said a quick increase would allow them to better meet maintenance demands and debt could be dealt with more quickly.
But rates are already increasing again. History indicates that parking rates increase about every four or five years, a fact that parking department director Donna Hultine pointed out in a letter to The University Daily Kansan when the fall 2005 rate increase was announced. Hultine said the newest increase is meant to cover the growing cost of Park & Ride, a service not all students use. The department
Issue: Another increase in the cost of parking permits
Stance: Students bear the burden of continual jumps in parking fees
Such a large increase in such a short amount of time is bound to effect students. The cost of attending the University is constantly increasing and with other necessities, including parking, rising in cost as well, something is bound to give. Students have to budget more carefully, work more instead of studying and perhaps take out larger loans.
did not communicate that it planned to increase rates again so quickly.
The Parking Department must find the resources to provide parking for the University, but it needs to keep in mind what expenses, other than a parking permit, students must bear.
It is important to accommodate the increasing demand for parking on campus while also maintaining the current parking infrastructure. At the same time, the Parking Department needs to decide how and when increases are going to occur so students can prepare themselves.

COMMENTARY
"What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet," mused Shakespeare. But on the same line of thought, if you call bovine feces arose, would it stop reeking?
President Bush uses the same technique during controversy. He wasn't illegally spying with warrantless wiretaps. He authorized a terrorist surveillance program. Social Security reform is no longer about private accounts but instead the more lovable personal accounts. Iraq has secular violence — a very different view than Iraq's former Prime Minister, Ayad Allawi, who told the BBC, "If this is not civil war, then God knows what civil war is." The only real differences, of course, are the words.
the process through which science enters into its decisions."
The president may be one of the most impressive wordsmiths of his generation. Adored by his fans for his innovation and untraditional approach to language, he now has branched out and paints a verbal picture with such visual imagery that he puts Clinton's definition of "is" to shame. I only wish that we could get a real leader who had enough courage and respect for the American people to tell us when a rose is actually a rose and not a steaming pile of manure.
PAGE 5A
LaMort is a Cherryvale senior in psychology and political science.
Controlling language is fundamental to controlling perception. The president knows this, and at a time when his public approval ratings are moving as fast as gas prices, albeit in opposite directions, he's desperate to show some good news. This is where the semantics become important.
Religious criticism is necessary
It is about time someone spoke out against the discriminatory practices of the Catholic Church. As a victim of 11 years of parochial schooling, I witnessed how backwards and outdated the church can be. More people should criticize an institution that condemms women in the priesthood, premarital sex, and homosexuality.
If you're guessing the answer is no then I have to warn you that our administration is serving us a huge bouquet of BS.
One way this insidious method is used is government studies given to the press as signs of the progress being made such as Bush's wetland initiative. By changing a few definitions, the perception that problems are being fixed can occur without all the mess of actually fixing the problem. Last March the Interior Department's Fish and Wildlife Service reported the first gain in wetlands since the government started keeping track a half century ago. Wetlands are important because they filter pollutants, stop coastal erosion and are an essential habitat to

It has gotten so bad that scientists have had to start protesting. The Union of Concerned Scientists, which includes Nobel laureates, National Medal of Science recipients, former senior advisers to administrations of both parties, numerous members of the National Academy of Sciences and other well-known researchers, wrote that the Bush administration committed widespread and unprecedented "manipulation of
Great news, right? Nope, the only change was the definition of wetlands. The definition was expanded to include things such as water hazards on golf courses and nearly anything else moist.

I guess it's healthy if we don't see it.

More importantly, the Vatican should stop trying to influence the laws of the United States. Our constitution clearly dictates that there should be an absolute separation of church and state. Why then, does a certain president use his personal religious beliefs to support political agendas?
I would not call San Francisco's response to the Catholic Church's stance on gay adoption "hateful and discriminatory rhetoric," as a columnist in The University Daily Kansan claims. Instead, I would call it well-deserved. The Catholic Church tries too hard to control the thoughts
Instead of following the commands of an elected pope, Catholics should form their own interpretations of the Bible. And I don't mean interpret it word for word, but look at the morals of the teachings. After all, you can't analyze a text written more than 2,000 years ago and expect it to apply perfectly to modern society. Plus, the Bible has been rewritten many times since the apostles wrote it. It would have been extremely easy to slip in a bad word or two against a minority group.
and actions of its followers around the world. They call for a clear reduction in free-thinking.
I am writing in response to the article, "Choice of a Lifetime," written by Erin Wisdom in The University Daily Kansan on Thursday, April 13. This article was not a news item; it was strongly biased toward pro-life political ends. To publish such an article as news and not as an editorial piece does not demonstrate the journalistic integrity that is expected from our university newspaper. I am disappointed that the editorial staff allowed such propaganda to be published under the guise of "fair and balanced" reporting.
Erin Finzer Lawrence graduate student in Spanish
One thing that I took away from my Science Wars class was: when encountering scientific studies, you must remember that most research is funded or completed by an organization with a specific desired outcome. Erin Wisdom provides overwhelming evidence swaying her argument toward the "right to life" argument without giving the choice stance in fighting chance.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Abortion story sends slanted message
Even as we look at the terminology of the right to life movement we see that in our society there is overwhelming power assigned to the word "life." Choice stands as the antithesis of the "right to life movement," and as it assumes this position the word automatically takes on a negative connotation. Choice does not mean anti-life and it does not mean anti-religion. Choice means the ability to decide when, how many, and if you want to have children.
What the article does not state will hurt women the most. Yeah, women deserve better than abortion. But what is the anti-choice movement doing to prevent pregnancy in the first place? Instead of putting an ideological band-aid on the issue of abortion we need to address WHY it is women are utilizing these services. If we really want to reduce the numbers of abortions being performed, we need to engage preventative measures through which we educate and create access to methods that would prevent pregnancy. Wisdom states that 27 percent of abortions end in infection, but fails to remind the reader that because abortions are performed in safe, clean, medically sanctioned conditions they are safer than wisdom tooth extraction. We should value women's lives enough to not allow our government to restrict access to abortion.
The mixed messages we receive in sex education and socialization concerning our sexuality and our reproductive systems coupled with the shame that society places on asserting control over our own futures and our own bodies is outstanding. Wisdom's piece cites mental instability and physical harm as side effects of abortion. Sonograms and statistics from the Mayo clinic force us to assign a fetus human status and to assume a submissive, self-sacrificing role placing our health, needs and desires in a secondary role.

Canada finds fifth mad cow

TORONTO — Canada confirmed a case of mad cow disease on Sunday at a farm in British Columbia — the country's fifth case since May 2003, when the United States closed its border to Canadian beef.

Canada has invited the United States to participate in the epidemiological investigation of the latest case, and the U.S. Agriculture Department planned to send an animal health expert to Canada on Monday.
U. S. Agriculture Secretary Mike Johanns said he did not anticipate a change in status in trade between the countries.
"It is important to note that Canada's monitoring system identified this animal as one that should be removed from the food and feed supply chain, ensuring food safety continues to be protected," Johanns said in a statement.

Mark Mangino has to feel as if the Easter Bunny brought him something special this year.
During Friday's Annual Spring game, all of us in the Memorial Stadium press box had a bird's-eye-view of something different; something that Jayhawk football under Mangino has seldom enjoyed.
The much ballyhooed freshman quarterback Kerry Meier, who has had fans eagerly clamoring for Sept. 2, stepped into the huddle Friday night with confidence. By game's end, he had fans ready to start a four-and-a-half month tailgate, leading up to the home opener against Northwestern State.
For now, KU fans have reason to be excited and so does Mangino. It wasn't so much Meier's final stat line that had people excited, it was his presence on the field.

2006. Mangino needs a quarterback again like Heupel, who was not afraid to thrive in big games.
Now is Meier going to do that at Kansas? Well, that's an argument for another day. As for now, tomorrow might have just became a whole lot brighter for the Kansas football team with Meier in the picture.
Of course, it would be cliché to compare Meier to former Kansas quarterback Bill Whittemore. I can't do that. That's only because Meier looks like a quarterback with throwing ability that hasn't been seen around Lawrence in a long time.
It was Meiens precocious decision making that had to give Mangino goose bumps on Friday. Since he came to Kansas, Mangino has looked for a signal caller that had the consistent intellect that matched the ability. Those quarterback qualities are what helped make a name for Mangino, when he was the offensive coordinator at Oklahoma. The then-quarterback Josh Heupel lead the Sooners to a National Championship in 2000.

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
With one out in the top of the first inning, Ritchie Price singled to left field for the first Kansas hit of Sunday's series finale against Oklahoma State.
It also marked the senior shortstop's 275th hit of his career, leaving him in sole possession of the Kansas hits record.
Price finished the day 2-for-5 at the plate, while his team finished the afternoon with its first victory of the series, 7-5. After taking a 19-7 pummeling on Saturday, the Jayhawks (25-15, 7-8) rebounded in the only way possible to keep their Big 12 Conference hopes alive.
Fig 12 Confidence game.
"If we can walk a few less guys, play a little better defense and keep the ball in the park, we'll salvage the weekend," Kansas coach Ritch Price said after the second game.
Price was right.
Although the teams put up 14 total home runs, fourth in NCAA history, in Saturday's game, Oklahoma State (21-12, 5-7) and Kansas hit only three round trips on Sunday.
Price said the wind and sun conditions were as bad as he had ever seen in his coaching career. But on Sunday, the Jayhawks' home runs were more beneficial.
Freshman first baseman Preston Land went 3-for-4 with three RBI on the day. Land finished the day just a triple shy of the cycle. His solo home run in the sixth was also his sixth of the season, and second of the series.
Facing a series sweep, the layhawks were forced to erase the memories of Saturday, when they hit six home runs and still lost by 12 runs.
"It's actually easier than losing those tough ones late," Price said. "If you're here watching it, the conditions are so tough it's not even a baseball game."

The freshman quarterback struck quickly with a 36-yard touchdown pass to junior tight end Derek Fine for the first score of the game.
It didn't take long for Kerry Meier to show his potential at the annual spring game Friday night in front of 5,200 fans.
"He's done a great job placing the ball and putting it where it needs to be," Fine said, of Meier.
Meier was part of all four touchdowns for the White team, throwing for three and running for one. The White team defeated the Blue队28-7.
"Kerry will be a guy that is going to do some great things for us this season," Kansas coach
"I had some good plays, I had some bad plays, but I think I had more good than bad," Meier said. "As long as I improve and keep playing, it will be just fine."
Meier finished the night with 184 yards passing, going 16-of-28 with no interceptions. He added 36 rushing yards on seven carries.
Mark Mangino said. "There's no question about it."
Meier wasn't the only impressive freshman on offense. Freshman running back Angus Quigley caught an 11-yard touchdown pass from fellow freshman quarterback Todd Reesing for the Blue team's only score of the night.
"Angus Quigley is a guy that is going to get in the mix here," Mangino said.

Coach wanted to 'ride the hot arm'

After Kassie Humphreys threw her second complete game in two days and helped Kansas to a 3-2 victory against Texas Tech on Sunday, she tried to pick up an egg in the outfield during the postgame children's Easter egg hunt, but put it back for the children to find instead.
"I had to put the egg back," the pitcher said. "I guess there is no Easter bunny for me."
She wasn't alone in her disappointment. The pitcher ruined Texas Tech's Easter hopes by striking out eight players and allowing only three hits over seven innings at Arrocha Ballpark.
Although Humphreys pitched with as much poise and confidence as ever, she didn't even know she was going to pitch until Kansas coach Tracy Bunge informed her after warm ups.
"I wanted to ride the hot arm," Bunge said. "We needed to shut them down, and Kassie's been doing it."

Early on, Humphreys and the Jayhawks were not able to shut down the Red Raiders. In the first inning, Humphreys hit left fielder Montana Patin with a pitch. Patin advanced to second off second baseman Jennifer Bowers' hit, who also made it to base safely because of a throwing error. Texas Tech capitalized as first baseman Jennifer Corkin and designated player Brandy Moulin drove in both runners to give the Red Raiders a 2-0 lead.

Rich Aurilia's two-run double in the eighth, one batter after right fielder Juan Encarnación botched a potential double-play flyout when he dropped the ball, had put the Reds in front. Aurilia had three hits and Adam Dunn and Austin Kearns homered on consecutive at-bats in

ST. LOUIS — Albert Pujols' third home run of the game, a go-ahead two-run shot in the ninth inning, gave the St. Louis Cardinals an 8-7 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Sunday.
Pitcher Jason Marquis, who hit .310 last year with a homer and 10 RBI, led off the ninth with a pinch single. The only doubt on Puijs' blast was whether it would stay fair, and it ended up about 10 feet fair and in the second deck.
Pujols' eighth home run came on a 1-2 pitch from David Weathers (0-1) and traveled an estimated 441 feet to left field, ending a topsy-turvy game that featured five lead changes. His second career three-homer game and sixth career game-ending homer topped off a 4-2 opening homestand at the new Busch Stadium, and he matched career highs with five RBIs and four runs scored.
Both teams were again without their starting center fielders. Edmonds missed his second game with right shoulder soreness after receiving a cortisone shot Friday night, and Ken Griffey Jr. missed his fourth straight start for the Reds with stiffness behind his right knee.
Dunn hit a two-run shot on a full count with two outs in the fourth for his seventh homer. He had five hits on the Reds' trip, all of them homers, going 5-for-21 with 10 strikeouts. Kearns, who is 8-for-17 in his last four games with two homers and seven RBI, also connected on a full count for his fourth homer and a 4-2 lead for the Reds.
Puijols and Scott Rolen connected on consecutive at-bats in the bottom of the fifth for the Cardinals. Puijos has 14 career multihomer games and two this season.
the fifth for the Reds.
Jonn Rodriguez added a two-run triple for the Cardinals, who sold out their first six games at their new ballpark.
Mark Mulder and Bronson Arroyo, pitchers who have combined to hit three homers this season, gave up two long balls apiece and failed to get the ball out of the infield in their at-bats. Both labored through five shaky innings.
Both could return to the line-up Monday.

Mangino said senior running back Jon Cornish was the No.1 running back right now. Cornish ran for 60 yards on the night, averaging four yards per carry.
SPORTS
"Cornish must develop into the total running back package, including blocking and pass receiving," Mangino said.
Brandon McAnderson and Marcus Herford caught the other two touchdowns from Meier for the White team during the scrimmage.
Senior Adam Barmann was the No. 2 quarterback Friday night, but Mangino said he would like to get Barmann more work at the tight end position, which lacked depth.
Mangino said he was cautious of playing Barmann too much at tight end because he would be the No. 2 quarterback if the team had to use him. Barmann did not get any work at tight end in the spring game.
"If something happens to him, then we go over to a young man right out of high ground."
school and he hasn't gotten many repetitions this spring," Mangino said, about Reesing.
On the defensive side, sophomore cornerback Aqib Talib played like the shutdown cornerback Kansas will need next season.
"Aqib Talib has a chance to be a pretty special player in this league." Mangino said.
Joining Talib in the secondary will be senior safety Jerome Kemp. Mangino said freshman Darrell Stuckey had the edge at the free safety position.
The other cornerback position will not be decided until the fall, when recruits Anthony Webb and Phillip Strozier join the team.
Junior college transfers, Blake Bueltel, who started Friday, and Michael McCoy also are in line for the starting cornerback position.
"I really like this football team's enthusiasm and practice habits," Mangino said. "We have very good practice habits, which always gives us a chance to be a good team."

Outfielder Betsy Wilson tied the game in the second inning with a single that scored outfielder Ashley Goodrich.
Kansas (23-20, 4-6) responded with an offensive barrage that produced 11 hits. In the bottom of the inning, first baseman Nicole Washburn notched her first of three hits and scored on shortstop Destiny Frankenstein's double.
With the score still tied in the fourth inning and third baseman Val Chapple on second base, Washburn hit a sharp line drive into left field. Chapple turned the corner at third, and Bunge waved her in to score.
Scott Audette/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Texas Tech's Patin threw the ball to catcher Robyn Wike in time, but Wike bobbled it, allowing Chapple to avoid the tag and score the go-ahead run.
"When you get a base hit to the weakest arm out in left field, you have to take a chance," Bunge said. "Luckily, it was a short hop."
Chapple's run was enough for Humphreys, who shut out the Red Raiders after the first inning on the way to her second victory of the series.
In the first game, Humphreys struck out 10 and allowed only four hits in a 1-0 KU victory. Humphreys' record now stands at 11-13.

The Kansas sweep of Texas Tech was its first of a Big 12 opponent this season.
"We've been on the road for a long time," pitcher Serena Settlemier said. "It'll be nice to gain confidence here at home."
It moved Kansas into sixth place in the conference and kicked off a seven-game homestand.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Carl Crawford hurt himself and then the Kansas City Royals.
Crawford had a tiebreaking two-run triple to lead the Tampa Bay Devil Rays to a 9-5 victory over the Royals on Sunday.
"That's the most painful triple I ever had to earn," said Crawford, who had earlier fouled a ball off his toe. "It still hurts."
Crawford has 50 triples in 535 career games. It was his first this season.
"It's one of the funnest plays in all of sports, watching C.C. hit a triple." Devil Rays manager
The Devil Rays, at 7-6, are off to the second-best start in franchise history. They have won three games in a row.
Joe Maddon said. "He's one of the strongest runners I've ever watched. He runs hard and he runs fast. He's intense."
Jonn y Gomes, Damon Hollins and Ty Wigginton homered for Tampa Bay, which has won seven consecutive games against the Royals
dating to last season. The Devil Rays, at 7-6, are off to the second-best start in franchise history.
The Devil Rays scored three runs in the sixth to take the lead. Tomas Perez had an RBI single before Crawford drove in two with a triple off Steve Stemle (0-1) to make it 6-4. Wigginton hit a two-run drive in the seventh to extend the Tampa Bay lead to four.
Kansas City loaded the bases with one out against Scott Dunn in the eighth. Shawn Camp relieved and got David Dejesus to ground into an inning-ending double play.
Mark Teahen tripled and scored at Angel Broera's two-

out single off reliever Brian Meadows (1-0) to give Kansas City a 4-3 lead in the sixth. The Royals have lost seven in a row.
Gomes' two-run drive off Mark Redman in the first gave the Devil Rays an early lead but Shane Costa responded with a two-run homer in the second to tie it at 2.
Redman was reinstated from the 15-day disabled list before
the game after being sidelined by a left knee injury. He went five innings, allowing three runs and seven hits.
"I had to make some adjustments and find out what was working," Redman said. "I was really satisfied with myself physically."
Hollins hit a solo homer in the second to put Tampa Bay up 3-2. Kansas City drew even again on Paul Bako's RBI single
in the fourth.
Tampa Bay rookie Jason Hammel made his second career start filling in for the injured Mark Hendrickson, who is on the 15-day disabled list with left shoulder tightness. He gave up three runs and four hits in five innings.
Hammel was optioned to Triple-A Durham after the game. Tampa Bay will add a player to the roster on Monday.

Aussie gets first tour title
BY PETE IACOBELLI THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HILTON HEAD ISLAND S.C. — Aaron Baddeley won the Verizon Heritage for his first PGA Tour title, rallying with two late birdies and finishing off Jim Furyk with a scrambling par on Harbour Town's lighthouse closing hole.
closing hole.
Baddley was tied with Furyk entering the round, had a two-shot lead by the fifth hole, then was down by that many to Furyk after No. 11.
But the 25-year-old Australian proved unfloppable, birding two of the hardest holes on the PGA Tour — the 14th was statistically the hardest par 3 on tour last year and the 15th was the hardest par 5 — to move in front for good.
and Danny Hillk. Furky, the 2003 U.S. Open winner seeking his first victory since the Western Open last summer, was seemingly in the clear when his birdie on No. 10 and Baddeley's miscue on No. 11 put him up by two shots. However, Furyk missed a 5-footer for par on the 12th hole and could not match Baddeley's touch at the end.
Baddeley shot a 1-under 70 to finish at 15 under, a stroke ahead of Furyk (71) and two ahead of Vaughn Taylor (66) and Billy Mayfair (69).
Furyk had his chances to tie after Baddeley chunked a chip shot at the par-3 17th and made bogey. But Furyk followed by missing a 10-foot par putt to remain one back.
Again on the 18th hole, Furyk had a tying 12-foot birdie putt, but slid it left. Baddeley, who missed the green when his second shot went long and right, then won with a 6-foot
par putt that caught the right edge of the cup and dropped in.
Baddeley raised his arms in triumph, his wife, Richelle, squealing happily alongside the green.
Baddeley won $954,000 and, perhaps more importantly because he was ranked 158th on the money list coming in, gained a tour exemption through 2008.
Golf fans might best know Baddeley as the young hoishot in the golf commercial, driving a convertible with young female fans yelling his nickname, "Badds." It's an image the first-time winner says he's not fully comfortable with and one he expects will change over time.
He's a devout Christian who aspires to the ministry when he's through with golf. He celebrated his one-year anniversary this past Saturday. Hours before his final round tee-time, Baddeley spoke at Harbour Town's Easter Sunrise Service by the 18th green. Two days earlier, Baddeley closed his second bound with an unlikely eagle at the famous lighthouse hole.
He has three victories in Australian, where his family moved from New Hampshire when Baddelley was 2. He finished 10th on the Nationwide Tour in 2002 to qualify for the PGA Tour. He has twice been a runner-up, in 2003 at the Sony Open and a year later at the Chrysler Classic of Tucson.
Ernie Els was the only one of the world's top five players on hand after last week's Masters. Els' 71 left him tied for seventh at 10 under, his sixth Top-10 finish in eight visits to Harbour Town.

Phillies shut down Rockies in historic style
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DENVER — Brett Myers combined with two relievers on a seven-hit shutout and Ryan Howard homered Sunday, leading the Philadelphia Phillies over the Colorado Rockies in the first 1-0 win by a visiting team at Coors Field.
In 888 regular-season games at Coors Field, the only other 1-0 game was last July 9, when the Rockies beat San Diego.
Myers (1-0) allowed seven hits in 7 2-3 innings, struck out five and walked one. He is 5-0 against the Rockies, including 4-0 with a 2.64 ERA in four starts at Coors, the home-run haven that opened
in 1995.
Cory Sullivan reached on a bunt single with one out in the eighth, and Clint Barmes flied out. Arthur Rhodes relieved Myers and walked Todd Helton, then retired Garrett Atkins on a lineout to right. Tom Gordon pitched a perfect ninth for his fourth save in as many chances.
Aaron Cook (1-2) gave up six hits in eight innings and is winless in four starts against the Phillies.

Howard hit his second homer of the season in the seventh inning, a 427-foot drive into the Philadelphia bullpen in center field.

fourth before Matt Holliday to hit into his second double play of the game.
Both pitchers worked out of trouble in the sixth inning.
Cook gave up a leadoff single to Jimmy Rollins, who moved to third on a single by Aaron Rowand, who then was caught stealing. After Bobby Abreu walked, Cook got Pat Burrell to hit into a double play.
Helton had a two-out double in the sixth, and Atkins
beat out an infield single for his third hit of the game. But Myers retired Holliday on a groundout.

Howard was robbed of a hit in the fifth when second baseman Jason Smith ranged behind the bag to throw him out.
The Phillies began the day as one of four major league teams without a triple. Smith started at second for Luis Gonzalez, who is 0-for-7 against Myers.
Smith went 1-for-3 against Myers with an infield single.

Tonight. Follow your pals.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) *****
Take a stand and be less upright about what you need to do in order to get the response you desire. Sometimes you could be overworked and tired by the burdens you carry.

Derby taking shape
Favorite not set in Louisville
BY RICHARD ROSENBLATT
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LEXINGTON, Ky. — Don't blink when the gate springs open to start the Kentucky Derby. If you do, you could miss all the favorites making a mad dash to the first turn at Churchill Downs.
The field for the May 6 Derby is coming into shape, and the theme for this edition is speed, speed and more speed. The top three contenders in the Run for the Roses' final Top 10 — Brother Derek, Lawyer Ron and Barbaro — are front-runners who refuse to be caught when they take the lead.
Lawyer Ron was the latest to display his sheer speed, dragging jockey John McKee to the front along the backstretch en route to a 2/3-4-length victory in Saturday's $1 million Arkansas Derby — the colt's sixth straight win.
A week earlier, Brother Derek went gate-to-wire in capturing the Santa Anita Derby for his fourth straight victory. And a week before that, Barbaro stalked the pace before pulling away from Sharp Humor to win the Florida Derby his fifth straight victory.
They aren't the only speed demons, as Sinister Minister showed Saturday in an astonishing gate-to-wire, 12 3/4-length romp in the Blue Grass Stakes at Keeneland, a victory that left once-promising Derby hopefuls Bluegrass Cat (fourth) and First Samurai (fifth) in his wake.
"I don't think Brother Derek can get in front of this guy," Minister Trainer Bob Baffert said. "I don't think he wants to."
Dan Hendricks, who trains Brother Derek, says his colt can settle in behind a speed duel up front. "If a horse wants to be sent out there and be ridiculous, let him," he said. "We'll be close. Everybody knows what our style is."
This week's Top 10, with final Derby future wager odds:
1. Brother Derek (Dan Hendricks, trainer Alex Solis, jockey): Early Derby favorite will have company up front in Derby. Expected to be in Louisville on April 25. Next start: Kentucky Derby (May 6). Odds: 5-1.
2. Lawyer Ron (Bob Holthus, John McKee): Six in a row after sweeping aside 12 rivals in Arkansas Derby. Next start: Derby. Odds: 8-1.
3. Barbaro (Michael Matz, Edgar Prado): Unbeaten colt training at Keeneland, with workout expected next Sunday. Next start: Derby. Odds: 9-1.
Baffert, Refael Bejarano): If there's too much speed up front, Baffert could get his fourth Derby win with this colt. Next start; Derby. Odds: 13-1.
4. Point Determined (Bob
5. Bob and John (Baffert,
Garrett Gomez): Wood Memorial
winner also likes to run near
the front. Next start: Derby.
Odds: 13-1.
6. Sweetnorthernsaint (Michael Trombetta, Kent Desorseaux): Starting to become popular choice after romp in Illinois Derby on April 8. Next start: Derby. Odds: 10-1.
7. Sinister Minister (Baffert, Gomez): Gate-to-wire Blue Grass winner could have been claimed in January for $62,500. Would have won California Derby but hit rail twice in the stretch. Next start: Derby. Odds: 15-1 (mutuel field).
8. Steppenwolfer (Daniel Pietz, Robby Albarado). Second-best to Lawyer Ron in Arkansas in prep races. Extra distance in Derby could help. Next start: Derby, Odds: 47-1.
9. A.P. Warrior (John Shirreffs, Corey Nakatani) Will train at Santa Anita and be shipped to Churchill Down on May 2. Next start: Derby. Odds: 24-1
10. Like Now (Kiaran McLaughlin, Fernando Jara): Gotham winner recovered quickly from fever that kept him out of Wood Memorial. Next start: Lexington Stakes (Saturday). Odds: 70-1.

Brian Bender, Overland Park freshman, left, Dave Mackay, Shawnee senior, center, await the beginning of Saturday's game between Kansas and Oklahoma State. Kansas lost 19-7, in a game that saw a Big 12-record 14 home runs hit.
Baseball
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
Price said his players were disappointed after Saturday's loss, but they kept a short memory heading into Sunday's game. Kansas tagged Oklahoma State with its second home loss of the year. The Jayhawks' victory was Oklahoma State's second home loss of the year.
Oklahoma State home runs took their toll on Kansas pitching to start the game. Outfielder Keanon Simon and shortstop Deik Scram went deep to give their team a 3-0 lead in the bottom of the third inning.
Simon would go on to lead the Cowboy offense, going 3-for-5 at the plate, scoring twice and knocking in a run.
Kansas retaliated in its next at bat, not allowing another big lead to mount. It put up three runs of its own in the top of the fourth inning. Senior outfielder Matt Baty, senior infielder Jared Schweitzer and sophomore outfielder John Allman singled consecutively to get the rally started.
Land's two-RBI double tied the game at three.
After taking the lead, 4-3, the next inning, Oklahoma State starter Rick Rivas left the game (1-2) after just 4.1 innings on the mound. Rivas would take the loss, but not before Jeff Breedlove replaced him and game up a two-RBI single to sophomore third baseman Erik Morrison, the first batter he faced.
In the final inning of Kansas's three-inning scoring package, Land hit a solo home run for the team's seventh and final run scored.
Kansas wouldn't need any more runs.
Senior closer Don Czyz took over to start the sixth inning. The closer threw four-shutout innings to pick up his 13th save of the season. For the fourth Sunday in a row, the Czyz and senior Kodiak Quick combo did the job against opposing Big 12 competition.
Kansas will take on Missouri State at 6 p.m. on Tuesday in its next game.

Friday — Oklahoma State 9,
Kansas 5
Oklahoma State moved its record to a nearly flawless 17-1 at Allie P. Reynolds Stadium in the opening game of a three-game set against Kansas, using the long ball as its biggest ally.
Junior lefty Sean Land (4-6) took the loss, allowing five runs on five hits in five innings of work.
Seniors Gus Milner, Schweitzer and John Allman went 8-of-10, collectively. They also drove in three runs and scored four times, while their teammates accounted for just three more hits. Kansas actually outhit Oklahoma State, 11-10.
Saturday - Oklahoma State 19. Kansas 7
Six different Jayhawk batters
In his first game back since dislocating his shoulder on April 5, senior jared Schweitzer played second base and went 2-for-3 and scored a pair of runs. It is doubtful that Schweitzer will return to playing first base, his usual position, until sophomore second baseman Ryne Price returns. Price underwent surgery on his wrist Friday.
Kansas could not keep up with Oklahoma State's hot bats. Shortstop Shelby Ford did the most damage, hitting two home runs and collecting four RBI in the process.
hit a home run on Saturday.
Yet the deficit by which they lost was double that amount
Date:Saturday April 29,2006 Where: Lyons 1&2 Cost $100 per team of 8-10 people Teams are guaranteed at least 2 games
Fighting windy conditions Kansas (24-15, 6-8) fell to Oklahoma State (21-11, 5-6) for the second day in a row. 19-7.
Neither the teams nor the pitchers could escape the wrath of the wind. The strong gusts provided added power to anyone holding a bat. Combined, the two teams hit 14 home runs, tying for fourth place in NCAA history.
With the losses, Kansas dropped its first Big 12 series in three weeks.
Kansas used three different pitchers, gave up three consecutive home runs and walked five straight, while Oklahoma State tore the game wide open in the fourth. All seven runs were scored before Kansas could get an out.
Winners will receive a plaque and free t-shirts!
There would be no coming back for Kansas, despite senior shortstop Richie Price retaliating right away, hitting a run in his team's next at bat. It tied Price with Darryl Monroe at 274 for most career hits as a jayhawk.
Pitching was a problem for Kansas. Senior right-hander Ricky Fairchild (4-4) took the loss, giving up 10 runs in his three innings of work. Fairchild and the three pitchers to follow gave up eight walks to Oklahoma State's one.
Proceeds from the event will be used for Juvenile Diabetes research and education, scholarships and other Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation philanthropic programs.

Alisha Ashley, Halstead senior, bottom right; Elizabeth Newman, Ponca City Oklehoma, senior top left; Kathanna Culp, Orlando senior, top middle and Justin LaMort, Cherryvale senior, far right; all members of KU ACLU, make posters for a noiseless ordinance march tonight at 6. "We hope somewhere between 20 and 50 students will show up for the protest," LaMort said.
BY KRISTEN JARBOE
kjarboe@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITE
A group of students plans to march to the Lawrence City Hall tonight in hope of changing the current noise ordinance.
The group, which includes the KU chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union, members of Delta Force, and concerned citizens, will give input to the city commission as it discusses whether to change the noise ordinance. The meeting will begin at 6:35 p.m.
Megan True/KANSAN
The group wants a citizen complaint or a warning before a citation can be issued. Under the current ordinance, no complaints or warnings are required before a violation is given. A second option the group supports is the setting of a 60-decibel noise limit between midnight and 7 a.m. in residential neighborhoods. A volume of 70 decibels is the volume of normal traffic.
The commission will discuss three options of its own.
Commissioners have the option of leaving the ordinance as it stands.

Bausch and Lomb voluntarily recalled its ReNu contact solution last week because of eye fungus suspicions.
The company asked U.S. retailers to remove its ReNu with MoistureLoc and generic versions of the solution from stores Thursday and suggested other users switch to another solution until a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention investigation of fungal keratitis reports was finished.
Keratitis is an infection of the cornea, the clear covering of the colored part of the eye. Seventeen states, including Iowa and Missouri, have reported fungal keratitis to the CDC. The disease is not contagious.

While studying tree frogs, Duellman, a retired ecology and systematics professor and curator of Herpetology at the University of Kansas, discovered a frog with a pouch on its back. Now, 42 years and 22 marsupial frog species later, he is still adding to his life's list.
When William Duellman stumbled across a small, odd frog in the jungles of Panama in 1963, it was the start of a long career.
Duellman continues to do research on marsupial frogs because he said he was trying to understand the biodiversity of the planet. The greatest diversity
"I am not 'one of,' I am the leading expert on marsupial frogs." Duellman said.
In 2003 Duellman discovered the most recent frog species in northern Peru with the help of Pablo Venegas, a member of the faculty at Facultad de Medicina Veterinaria de la Universidad Nacional Pedro Ruiz Gallo in Peru. Their findings were recently published by the Herpetologists' League in its quarterly journal, Herpetologica.
of life is in the tropics where his frogs live, he said.
The newest species of marsupial frogs are different from other marsupial frogs because of a flat, spatula-shaped skull and differenti-colored skin that is fused to the skull, Duellman said. Most marsupial frogs have big robust skulls, Duellman said. The newest species he found brought the number Duellman has discovered to 22. Only 46 species of marsupial amphibians are known at this time.
CRIME
Randle charged again

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
For the sixth time in three years, former KU running back John Randle has been charged with a crime.
Randle was charged with battery and disorderly conduct after a fight with KU safety Jerome Kemp early Saturday morning, according to a police report released Monday.
The altercation occurred 2:45 a.m. Saturday in the 1000 block of Kentucky. According to witness reports, a 19-year-old female Lawrence resident was pushed to the ground after attempting to separate the two men. A police spokeswoman said witnesses gave conflicting accounts of how the altercation started.
Randle left the scene after the 30-second altercation, according to the police report. Lawrence police stopped Randle's
vehicle on 1135 West Campus Road and issued Randle a notice to appear in court for the battery and disorderly conduct charges. No court date has been set.
Both Kemp and Randle suffered minor injuries. No injury information for the Lawrence resident was available, but according to the police report all parties declined medical treatment.
Randle was the only person charged with a crime.
Randle, Wichita junior, is the former starting running back for the KU football team. He was kicked off the team in March 2005 after a series of arrests. Football coach Mark Mangino allowed Randle to keep his athletic scholarship if Randle chose to continue his education at the University.
Jim Marchiony, associate athletic director, would not comment on whether this incident could cost Randle his scholarship.

The Athletics Department is making sure athletes are not putting incriminating or defaming information on their online profiles at Web sites such as facebook.com and myspace. com.
Kansas is one of many schools that monitors its athletes' online profiles.
Loyola University Chicago
banned athletes from belonging to facebook.com, according to a USA Today article.
Administrators check the athletes' profiles and pictures looking for pictures showing alcohol or drug use and profile descriptions that talk about alcohol, drugs or sex.
Jim Marchiony, associate athletics director, said that KU athletes hadn't had much of a problem complying with the department's advice.
If something does stand out,
the administrators can tell the athlete to change it, Marchiony said.
The department often stresses the importance of being public role models.
"Not only is it an issue of representing the University and the team and yourself in an appropriate manner, it's also a safety and security issue," Marchiony said.
Marchiony said the coaches had spoken to their players about Web sites such as facebook.com or myspace.com, and how their online profiles should be representative a public figure.
Some athletes have taken control of their profiles themselves.
Christine Skoda, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, senior and tennis player, said athletes needed to be cautious with online profiles.

IMMIGRATION Protest in Kansas City presses for reforms
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Several hundred advocates for tighter immigration controls and stiffer security on the U.S.-Mexico border gathered in Kansas City on Monday to press for immigration reforms.

ODD NEWS Cuddly illegal alien sneaks into the U.S.
ELDRIDGE, N.D. — A stowaway who made it past customs agents and into the United States on the metal frame of a fertilizer truck has won over locals, who call her the "sweetest illegal immigrant we've ever met."
The migrant - a cat
- hopped aboard a semitrailer hauling fertilizer from Esterhazy, Saskatchewan, to Eldridge.
Customs agents at the border alerted the driver, but no one could catch the feline. When the semi arrived in Eldridge, the furry stowaway was still clinging to the frame.
The trip Wednesday took about eight hours.
"She had nothing to grip with her claws because it's metal," said Mainline book-keeper Jessica Hansen, who rescued the cat. "I don't know how she kept from falling out."
Hansen said she and her fellow employees - who named the cat Canada - considered keeping the animal as
a mascot, but decided it was too risky with all the trucks around. The James River Humane Society in Jamestown, near Eldridge, is trying to find it a home.
"I don't want to see her deported now that they've tightened the immigration laws" Society spokeswoman Deb Archambeau joked. "She's sweet and friendly and deserves a good home."

Marijuana-filled house deserted during fire
WADSWORTH, Ohio — Firefighters dousing a blaze in a new home were confused when the presumed owner suddenly fled — until they found $700,000 worth of marijuana plants in the basement officials said.
"It seemed so strange to me," said Wadsworth Fire Chief Ralph Copley. "If it were my home burning, I'd want to be there."
After firefighters extinguished the blaze, which started in the attic early Friday, authorities said they found 239 marijuana plants filling
The Medina County Drug Task Force and firefighters on Friday confiscated items from the home, including peat moss, 1,000-watt bulbs and large reflecting discs. The basement had no fire damage.
a quarter of the basement, which was wired throughout for indoor plant growing.
The marijuana-cultivating system was wired to the home's electrical system in a way that bypassed the meter, said Michael Barnhardt, acting director of the task force. Such wiring would help a grower avoid the large electric bills that clue in investigators, he said.
CORRECTION
Copley said the cause of the fire was unknown, but it did not appear to be related to the marijuna operation or electrical wiring. The fire caused about $150,000 in damage.
An article in Monday's The University Daily Kansan contained an error. The article, "Class aims to prove Lawrence is friendly," should have said that Helen Hartnett, assistant professor of social welfare, said "This has been a great experience /or students, myself/ and fellow researcher, Toni Johnson, and the people who have participated. It has provided a hands-on opportunity to practice and share stories with people the students may not have had contact with in another way."

Lt. Gen. David Petraeus speaks to a full audience at the Dole Institute of Politics Monday night. He stressed 14 things he learned while in Iraq from money handling to respecting different cultures.
Setting the tone was the key message in Lt. Gen. David H. Petraeus' speech, "Observations from Soldiering in Iraq."

Institute
Speaking in front of a packed crowd at the Dole Institute of Politics, Petraeus's observations ranged from the importance of cultural awareness to how essential money is in rebuilding Iraq — both vital methods that aid in sending a positive message to everyone, soldiers and civilians, in Iraq.
Petraeus said the cultural awareness, such as learning the language, the culture and the structure of the government was "hugely important" because of the difference in customs of the United States versus Iraq.
"Commanders get paid to make adjustments and set the right tone," he said.
Petraeus, the Commanding General of the U.S. Army Combined Arms Center and Fort Leavenworth, used a PowerPoint demonstration to illustrate his "14 Observations from Iraq."
When discussing how "money is ammunition," Petraeus said that money was very helpful in getting projects done and aiding with various missions.

He also highlighted the importance of Iraqis and U.S. soldiers working together when he called Major Christopher Phelps, Silver Lake graduate student, and his Iraqi interpreter, Mustafa Abdualla, who hails from Baghdad, to the stage.
Phelps and Abdualla have worked together for eight months and spent time in Fallujah before coming to the United States.
Petraeus cited their relationship's significance and the role each are playing in turning things around in Iraq.

Currently, Duellman is working on a diary of DNA analyses to better understand the marsupial frogs. He needs tissue samples that have not been preserved, so he must go back into the field and look for more live specimens, Duellman said.
Since 1963, The National Science Foundation has funded all of his research on the marsupial frogs. Duellman has traveled many times to places like Panama, Columbia and other Central and South American countries to look for frogs in places where people haven't been before, he said.
"I have been chasing the damn things for 43 years," he said. "Sometimes you are successful, but just as many times, you are not."
The marsupial is a rarity in the frog world, said Juan Manuel Guayasamin, Quito, Ecuador, graduate student in the division of evolutionary biology at the University of Kansas.
"Marsupial frogs are one of the extreme products of evolution," he said. "Through time, female marsupial frogs have evolved a pouch on the back where fertilized eggs are placed."
According to Duellman, there is nothing special about the structure of the pouch. It is a pocket in the middle of the back that is used as an incubation system for fertilized eggs. The females carry these eggs in the pouch until they hatch and leave "momma and go off on their own." Duellman said.
Marsupial frogs generally live in the area from Costa Rica to Argentina. Most of the species live in the Andes Mountains. These frogs can range from a couple of centimeters long to almost four inches and they eat mostly insects, Duellman said.
This evolutionary rarity has helped the marsupial frog become partially or completely independent of water, Guayasamin said. By being independent of water, marsupial frogs can live high in trees.
pal frogs can be "It is possible that generations and generations can go by without any of these frogs ever touching the ground," Duellman said. "These are the ones that are hard to find, as you can imagine."
The marsupial frog is thought to have evolved from another species of tree frog
This type of tree frog lived mainly in North and South America. Over time, a brood pouch developed and the marsupial frog was born, Duellman said.
Even though Duellman, 76 retired from teaching systematics and ecology in December 1996 he still enjoys being able to use the University's facilities for his work.
"What is better than getting paid for what you like to do?" Duellman asked. Then he thought about his statement again, and added: "At least I used to get paid."

Noise
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
The ACLU chapter agrees with this option, but the group wants to add a warning provision, which means that people would receive a warning before obtaining a noise violation citation.
The second option is to set a decibel level for noise. The city has not specified a set decibel level. This option is the one that Justin La Mort, president of the KU ACLU chapter and Cherryvale senior, thinks has a better chance. Delta Force member Ashley Stubblefile agrees.
"It gives objective standards and gives self-regulation." Stubblefield, Liberty, Mo., senior, said. "It's something tangible."
But the city staff is not in favor of this standard because "the added precision comes at great price for the city, both financially and operationally. There is a substantial risk that a decibel-based standard would be much less effective than the competing standards when it comes to enforceability and comprehensibility by the public," according to a memorandum by staff attorney Scott Miller.
The third option is the "plainly
audible" standard, also known as the "clearly audible" standard. According to Miller's memorandum, the time of day and distance from a sound source or property line would determine whether the noise ordinance was violated. Unlike the decibel option, the human ear would measure the noise.
Regardless of what the city commission decides, the University Place Neighborhood Association wants the city to actively enforce noise violations. "I feel it is critical that the city work to preserve our neighborhood's way of life," said Kim Kreicker, former president of the association.
Commissioner David Schauner said he would like to see the University take an active role in keeping students from violating the noise ordinance.
"The University is in a unique position because they have influence over students," he said. "I don't know how the students would feel about this, but I know this is done at other universities."
The ACLU chapter and Delta Force have been researching the ordinance since the beginning of the fall. They looked at ordinances from other cities, like Tuscaloosa, Ala., to see what options would
work in a city like Lawrence. Tuscaloosa uses the decibel level option. La Mort said he talked with Tuscaloosa's city attorney, Robert Ennis, to see if the option worked there. Ennis said that it worked well and kept party noise down.
The group's most recent action was during student elections. Delta Force wrote petitions in favor of the ordinance's changes.
Stubblefield said that they weren't just getting signatures but also raising awareness. "A lot of people were surprised about what was going on," she said. "The petitions were definitely effective."
The march will begin at 6 p.m. at 1236 Louisiana St., weather permitting. La Mort said it was hard to tell how many people were going to attend, but he said they expected somewhere between 20 and 40 people.
At the meeting, the City Commission might make changes to one of the nine exceptions of the noise ordinance under construction noise. The commission may modify this particular exception in regard to construction operation and nighttime hours.

All of the patients in the CDC investigation who remembered their contact solutions reported using one from Bausch and Lomb.
How it happens
In order for the fungus to affect the eye, it must penetrate the upper-most layer, said Beauty Suiter, ophthalmologist at Lawrence Eye Care Associates, 112 W. 6th St. Contact lenses can make scratches on the cornea that allow the fungus to enter.
Contacts also deprive the cornea of oxygen, Suiter said. Oxygen helps keep the layer around the cornea thick. Contacts weakens the skin of the cornea, making it more susceptible to abrasions.
Wearing contacts overnight continues that process. The eyelid and contact, paired together, restrict the eye's access to oxygen during the night hours, keeping the eye from returning to its normal, oxygenated state.
What to expect and what to do
Symptoms are similar to pinkeye and include a red coloring of the eye, tearing, pain, discharge and sensitivity to light, said Patri-
cu Denning, chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center.
After penetration, the fungus can grow and distort vision, she said.
Anti-fungal medication can be used to treat keratitis. But if medication doesn't work, surgery is required. Eight patients have had to have cornea transplants, according to the press release.
Denning said no cases had been reported from Watkins and the Lawrence-Douglas County Health Department had not received any reports as of Monday afternoon.

Pulitzer Prize awards evoke tears, memories
BY DEEPTI HAJELA THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — The staffs of The Times-Picayune of New Orleans and The Sun Herald of south Mississippi captured Pulitzer Prizes for public service on Monday for chronicling the catastrophic aftermath of Hurricane Katrina despite life-changing damage to their own homes and workplaces.
Tears flowed rather than champagne in the Times-Picayune newsroom, which the staff had to evacuate just eight months earlier for about six weeks.
At The Sun Herald, staff members cheered and fought back tears.
The Times-Picayune for its "heroic, multi-faceted coverage" to "serve an inundated city even after evacuation of the newspaper plant," the Pulitzer citation said.
The Sun Herald won for its "valorous and comprehensive coverage ... providing a lifeline for devastated readers" and
The Washington Post won four Pulitzers, The New York Times three and The Times-Picayune and the Rocky Mountain News each won two.
The Times-Picayune staff was awarded a second Pulitzer, for breaking news, for Katrina, and The Dallas Morning News was honored "for its vivid photographs depicting the chaos and pain" of the disaster.
Like their communities, The Sun Herald and The Times-Picayune took a beating from Katrina. Their buildings were damaged, advertisers and subscribers were displaced, and circulation dropped.
The Times-Picayune evacuated about 240 employees in the back of newspaper delivery trucks as water from a levee breach rose around its plant. Many staffers saw the disaster unfold in their own neighborhoods.
The newsroom erupted in applause at the news of the Pulitzers, but there was no champagne.
"It it was a national tragedy," said Peter Kovacs, the Times-Picayune's managing editor for news. "It would not be appropriate to have champagne because of the nature of the event."
Executive Editor Stan Tiner dedicated the Pulitzer to the residents "whose magnificent hearts and spirit moved us every day that we have been privileged to tell the story of their struggle and triumphs."

OUR OPINION
Transportation funds need second thought
Kansas
The Park-and-Ride lot at 23rd and Iowa streets has one advantage over the old lot. It has a free bus system.
To alleviate some of the costs of the new lot and buses, the Parking Department got federal money to pay for 80 percent of the buses. But that money came with a catch: The buses must be free.
So park and riders don't have to worry about paying for a bus pass for KU on Wheels. But wait, they're still getting a bus pass.
These are students that do not need a pass. They don't take the bus to school. They use the Park and Ride. They don't need buses to get around town. They have a car they can use, which they drive to get to school.
That's right, included in the $205 for a Park and Ride pass is a KU on Wheels bus pass.
They don't need buses to get to class. They have a free bus ride from their lot on West Campus that drops them off a short distance from every building on campus
So why is the Parking Department still giving students and making students pay for a bus pass?
The new lot is being paid for, at least in part, by all students, faculty and staff who pay to park on campus. Permits are getting a $20 increase to provide funds for the new lot and the Universi-
issue: The new Park and Ride lot
Stance: Including a bus pass in the price is wasteful. The money should be spent on the lot.
tv's share of the buses.
Adding new buses will save KU on Wheels from taking the Park-and-Ride students on its buses.
Those buses won't be taking the students who use KU on Wheels to get from the Park and-Ride lot now.
So, money that those students paid for bus passes — and is no longer necessary because of the free buses — should go exclusively to pay for the new lot.
Don't change the costs, don't give Park-and-Ride students a bus pass, just take the money that would have paid for busing and use it to pay for parking.
Park-and-Ride only directly benefits students who drive to campus and are willing to park in West Campus.
Let's try to keep from making all parkers pay for that service. And let's not give Park-and-Ride students a bus pass they don't need and won't use.

Seniors should give gift of tradition to those remaining
COMMENTARY
It's been a long ride, baby.
It's been a long time, baby. I'll never forget attempting to walk from GSP to Lewis Hall on move-in day in the sweltering August heat and getting lost at 17th and Louisiana. Don't ask why or how, but I was on the corner of a dead end, near tears when my friend's dad came to pick me up.
Welcome to KU, I thought. Cran, this isn't a good sign.
The past nine months have been a year of firsts and a year of lasts. It's the first time I'm going to walk down the hill at Commencement, and one of my final experiences being in Memorial Stadium. My first time not stressing out picking classes for the fall and my last move out of my sorority house.
In a way, I long for the 19-year-old emotional basketcase dropped off at GSP four years ago. I knew that year would be trying. I was excited to start college, but that was heavily overshadowed by my parents' moving 1,700 miles away.
Amy J.
As I prepare myself to leave everything I have known and loved for the past four years, there is something that needs to be instilled in returning students: Tradition.
I still get chills when I see the video before football games and get weak in the knees watching the video in Allen Fieldhouse when they play the historic recap on the scoreboard. It is one of those things you can't quite put your finger on, but it's a mixture of the illumination of great player's names, the beat of the music and the game highlights I can't get out of my head.

presman, sophomores and juniors, there is something you need to realize during the rest of your time at the University of Kansas. This is not high school; no one cares how big your house is or if your parents are doctors or lawyers. It's not a matter of family pride or relishing if you came from Johnson or Wyandotte County. As soon as you make the decision to attend KU, you join the Jayhawk nation and everything that encompasses it.
The University is about convocation, basketball games and homecoming. It's about buildings that have a story, the Campanile (and the hundreds of ways that people mispronounce it) and the Chi Omega fountain. Most importantly, it is bigger than the students who are here now, who carry an important responsibility to uphold the traditions. Know that the things that you are doing are not trivial nor a waste of time, but the reflection of 134 years of history.
While neat events are spread throughout the academic year, one of my favorites was Traditions Night, held every August as part of Hawk Week, in Memorial Stadium. Two freshmen are selected every year to be passed to a torch, a
practice that symbolizes the passing of knowledge. Sometimes these students are Jayhawks through multiple generations, and others they the first in their family to go to college. There are speakers and members of the administration and Student Senate who welcome you to the University and all of that formal bureaucratic stuff.
Chancellor Hemenway's words at that event, my freshman year in 2002, have always stuck with me. He told us to look around and of the 2,500 in attendance, a little less than half would graduate. I was amazed by this and immediately wondered who would not be here with me in 2006. It is not until now that I realize how this event really comes full circle: I attended Traditions Night my freshman year, and I will end my years here with graduation in the stadium.
All I ask is take the time to learn about the campus you walk on every day. Hear the stories about haunted areas and architects who committed suicide off of a building because it was built backwards. Become your own mythbuster and dedicate yourself to discovering if these rumors are true.
When I walk down the Hill in May, there will be a lot of memories circling in my head. But there will be one thing I won't forget long after my time as a Jayhawk has ended: The traditions that come with bleeding crimson and blue.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Catholic unity should be praised
Richard Martinez, I am very sorry for the obviously poor experience you have had with the Catholic Church thus far. I know that, unfortunately, you are not alone in your opinions.
It saddens me, because you are missing out on the many, many joys that so many of us have as members of the Church. We are not mindless machines just waiting for the next command. We are strongly individualistic with our own opinions and issues. What we share is a beautiful, common faith.
population — more than 1 billion people — is Catholic. It is the largest Christian church in the world. There is only one Catholic Church. I couldn't even begin to count the number of non-Catholic churches out there who have done exactly what you prescribe for Catholics: Interpreted the Bible for themselves. It doesn't seem to have given them much unity. We have unity because we have shepherds to guide us: The Pope, bishops and priests.
One-sixth of the world's
I invite you to get to know the priests at the St. Lawrence Catholic Campus Center. You might begin to understand why more than 20 adults -mostly students
— were baptized, confirmed or both at the Center's Easter Vigil on Saturday night. You might begin to understand the true joy and peace that so many of us have in our lives.
St. Augustine said that our hearts are restless until they rest in the Lord. I invite you to find peace in your heart.

COMMENTARY
I am an unabashed fan of the liberal arts, all of them, as well as the other various professions taught on this campus.
In fact it is this love of all that is interdisciplinary that has prevented me from pursuing a graduate degree for the time being— those programs are so specific!
So, normally I would not be holding up any one field as more important than any other, but with only a few weeks left here at the University, I must say it once and for all: If we as a society don't make the teaching of history more of a priority, then the Republic will fall into tatters.
If you want apologies for being so apocalyptic then you will be disappointed.
As George Santayana once wrote, "A country without memory is a country of madmen."
History is the absolute life-
blood of a democratic republic;
It is a record of where we've
been, that we may chart where
to go next.
History is more than just dates of events and statues of generals. It is the tapestry onto which we see the ideals and pitfalls of human beings striving for justice or greed.
But our history is in peril in a time when it is needed most.
A front-page story in the New York Times of a few weeks ago stated that many schools across the nation are cutting back on subjects — history as well as arts and sciences — in response to the emphasis of the No Child Left Behind act on testing proficiency in reading and math.
While no one doubts that students must read and calculate, does anyone believe that those students will then be able to fully participate in society?
We have allowed our schools to become factories for creating consumers, not citizens; for training workers, not producers; for teaching the basics, without a thirst for anything more.
Through history, those factory walls come down, exposing each of us to a world greater than ourselves, but within us at the same time.
The analytical tools and mindset of history are useful in every profession. My decision to go into journalism and publishing, not just my love of Civil War battlefields, led me to the history department.
Thomas Carlyle wrote that "The history of the world is but the biography of great men." He should've left a word out of there to make it more accurate: 'great'.
It's a big world out there, and there are plenty of stories to tell. So read a book, and start writing your own.

Detainee prompts new speculation
BY MARGARET WEVER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ORANJESTAD, Aruba — A 19-year-old man detained in the disappearance of a young Alabama woman had never figured in the case before, lawyers said Monday, prompting speculation that authorities were taking a new approach to the case.
The announcement that someone was being held in the disappearance of Natalee Holloway nearly a year ago was the first major development in months in the case, which has featured several false leads. Before Saturday's arrest, seven people had been detained previously in the case and later released.
Lawyers for a Dutch youth and two Surinameans brothers jailed as suspects but later released due to insufficient evidence said the 19-year-old had not previously been mentioned in connection with the case.
"This may be a watershed moment," said Joseph Tacopina, who represents Joran van der Sloot, the Dutch teen who was with Holloway in the hours before she disappeared on May 30. "I don't think they are casually questioning him in this case."
John Q. Kelly, a lawyer for the Holloway family, said he was told by Arban prosecutors that the detainee had friends in common with Joran van der Sloot and the Surinamese brothers.
"The information this individual picked up is information related to the other three suspects," Kelly said Monday on NBC's "Today" show. "I was told it's not a case breaker. It's one step in the process."
The detainee's name has been reported by some media outlets, but Aruban authorities have only released his age and initials
"G.V.C." He was scheduled
to make his first court appearance Tuesday, the prosecutor's office said.
Tacopina, who said his investigators had been in contact with Aruban authorities, said "G.V.C" was detained because police recovered a shirt belonging to him with "relevant forensic information" from the south side of the Dutch Caribbean island of about 72,000 people.
The prosecutor's office has declined to specify the detainee's alleged connection to Holloway
— who was last seen leaving a bar with van der Sloot and the two Surinamese brothers, Deepak and Satish Kalpoe.
Van der Sloot's father told The Associated Press that his son had never met the 19-year-old detainee.
"Joran did not know him at all," said Paulus van der Sloot, a former island justice official who also was detained and later released on suspicion of involvement in Holloway's disappearance.
Ronny Wix, a lawyer who represents the Kalpoe brothers, said he was not yet sure whether his clients knew the detainee but thought that they would eventually be cleared of any involvement.
"There is no evidence that my clients have anything to do with the disappearance of Natalee Holloway," Wix said.
Tacopina said the detention of "G.V.C." was good news for his client because it suggested that the investigation was heading in a new direction.
"This kid has been under an umbrella of suspicion for 11 months based on no evidence," he said. Van der Sloot has said he left Holloway, then 18, at a beach near her hotel after they kissed on the final night of her high school graduation trip.

Moussaoui dreams Bush will set him free
WAR ON TERROR
BY MICHAEL J. SNIFFEN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ALEXANDRIA, Va. — A defense psychologist testified Monday that Zacarias Moussaoul was a paranoid schizophrenic with delusions. The defense lawyers presented additional evidence that the confessed Sept. 11 conspirator believed he would be freed from prison by President Bush.
and disorganized thoughts and speech.
Psychologist Xavier Amador testified that Moussaoun displayed symptoms of the brain disorder, including delusions
Amador has never examined Moussaoui, who refused to see him. He said his diagnosis was based, in part, on conclusions of other mental-health professionals and an analysis of Moussaoui's actions and writings, including numerous rambling and abusive legal motions Moussaoui filed during the 18 months he represented himself.
Last week, in his second appearance as a witness, the 37-year-old Frenchman reiterated his stunning earlier testimony
that he was to hijack a fifth jetliner on Sept. 11 and fly into the White House — a plan he had said for years was intended for a later date. He said he dreamed Bush would release him before leaving office in 2009 as part of a prisoner exchange for U.S. troops captured abroad. He is convinced that Bush will do this.
One of Moussaoui's guards at the Alexandria jail, called by the defense Monday, offered more details of Moussaoui's vision. Sheriff's Deputy Vikas Ohri said Moussaoui had told him that after Bush freed him, he would
"fly to London, write a book, make some money and go back to the mountains of Afghanistan and be al-Qaida."
Strugging to save Moussaoui from execution, court-appointed defense lawyers called a clinical social worker, Moussaoui's high school friends and his older sisters to try to offset his second damaging appearance on the witness stand last week. Clinical social worker Jan Vogelsang testified that it was not her purpose to make excuses for Moussaoui's actions but to understand how he had reached that point.

Plans for change under way
BY ERIC JORGENSEN
ejorgensen@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
At least one member of the Kansas Athletics department is excited about the possibilities a proposed rule change could bring to the basketball schedule.
If the NCAA approves the change, teams would be allowed to play in an early season invitational tournament every year.
if the rule change goes through, the start of the season would be moved back one week to the second Friday in November. The maximum number of regular season games a team could play before the conference games would raise to 31, according to a press release issued by the NCAA.
The NCAA Board of Directors will hold a meeting on April 27 to decide if the rule change will pass. If it does, the rule change will take effect on Aug.1.
Teams may play in two tournaments every four years. Kansas usually spreads its tournaments out so that it plays in one tournament every other year.
"That's our goal, to play in one every year," said Larry Keating, senior associate athletics director.
If the rule change goes through, the start of the season would be moved back one week earlier to the second Friday in November. The maximum number of regular season games a team could play before the conference games would raise to 31, according to a press release issued by the NCAA.

Midweek game key for Kansas postseason
BY ALISSA BAUER
abauer@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Kansas will get a shot to clean up in a midweek game after a messy week when it plays Missouri State at 6 tonight at Hoglund Ballpark.
Fortunately for the team, Missouri State will hobble into tonight's match-up after an even more brutal weekend.
Dropping two of three games to Oklahoma State this weekend has the Kansas in search of much-needed midweek victories, which are vital for an NCAA tournament berth.
"We just need to continue to win and find ways to win series," Kansas coach Ritch Price said seemingly unfazed by Missouri State's weekend.
Missouri State (19-13, 5-4) traveled to Wichita State last weekend and was swept by the Shockers. The Bears haven't beaten the Shockers in their past nine meetings.
The Bears pulled out a respectable comeback, scoring four in the eighth and three more runs in the top of the ninth, but still fell to the Shockers 8-7.
Wichita State outscored Missouri State 23-10 in the first two games of the three-game series before jumping out to an 8-0 lead in the series finale on Sunday.

Editor's note: Big 12 baseball reporter Shawn Shroyer writes a story every Tuesday about the previous week's Big 12 baseball action.
The Jayhawks received a huge lift this weekend with the return of senior infielder Jared Schweitzer and his .366 batting average. The team is still without sophomore second baseman Ryne Price, who went under the knife again last week to repair damage to his wrist. Coach Ritch Price said he expected the second baseman to be out approximately two weeks.
Kansas is coming off its first Big 12 series loss in three weeks, but with its victory on Sunday, the team moved up to a fourthplace tie in the Big 12.

A glimpse into the future
2006-07 Jayhawks have familiar faces

KANSAN SENIOR SPORTSWRIVER
Editor's note: Women's basketball writer Ryan Schneider predicts, by class, who will return to the team next season and what kind of contributions these players will have.
Shaquina Mosley: Mosley played her best basketball
SENIORS:
Mosley played her best basketball of the year in the season's final three games of the Big 12 Tournament and the WNIT. She scored a career-high 11 points in the season-ending loss to Mississippi in the WNIT. Against the Rebels, Mosley slashed through the lane and got to the free-throw line on numerous occasions. Mosley, 2005 National Junior College Player of
the Year, spent the beginning of the season adjusting to play at the Division I level. It was her first season at Kansas after two years at Northern Arizona. Look for Mosley to see significant minutes next season alongside point guard Ivana Catic.
Sharita Smith: Throughout the season, Smith proved
P. WATSON
herself to be the best defender on the team. She held several of the Big 12's best guards to single-digit point totals. Smith, however, struggled to find a rhythm offensively for most of the season. Her most notable shot was a half-court three-pointer that she banked in with the clock expiring on the first half in the victory
against New Orleans. Smith could work her way into the starting rotation next season if she improves her scoring ability.
JUNIORS:
I am the owner of a business that is not yet fully established. I want to create an environment where everyone can feel comfortable and confident in their own work.
acIntosh started nearly every game for the second consecutive season in the paint for the Jayhawks. Though not the focus of the Kansas offense, she scored in all but three games, including four games in double-figures. The junior forward's presence was mainly felt on the defensive end with her defense and rebounding. She averaged nearly six rebounds a game on the season.
McIntosh's solid defense and rebounding ability should make her an everyday starter for Kansas next season.
Jaime Boyd: Boyd, along with Marija Zinic, saw
A
action off the bench this season. She tied her career-high with six points against Baylor. Along with McIntosh and former Jayhawk Crystal Kemp, Boyd was named to the Academic All-Big 12 First team. Boyd could see minutes off the bench next season with continued offensive and defensive development.
SOPHOMORES:
A.
d. She was able to come off the bench and give Kansas much needed size at the guard position. Sallard was also able to defend many of the Big 12's taller guards. Sallard did not play in the season's final seven games with an undisclosed medical condition. If healthy, Sallard could be a difficult match-up for opponents next
season because of her height. At 5-foot-10, Salard handles the ball like a guard, but can also score in the paint.
Ivana Catic Catic suffered through growing pains in her first season as Kansas' point guard. Despite being a pass-first guard, Catic was also able to score in all but three games. At times, she struggled defensively against some of the Big 12's more experienced guards. She will be the Jayhawks only returning starter in the back court.

Crowded playoffs hurting NBA
▼ 'HORN BORN; 'HAWK BRED
The NBA playoffs, lasting from late April to the middle of June, are only days away. Some basketball fans revel in the glory of the best teams and players in the world finally giving their all to win, a trait not consistently seen during the regular season. Others, however, aren't excited at all.
Typical NBA haters, and there are many out there, say the regular season is meaningless and filled with lackluster play because too many teams make the playoffs. For most, not every game matters.
Red Lyon Tavern
A touch of Irish
Good point. Sixteen of the 30 teams in the NBA qualify for postseason play. Should more than half the teams make the playoffs? No way. The NBA should cut the field in half by only allowing four teams from each conference to make the

om
move. Depending on the last two games of the regular season, the conference's five, six, seven and eight seeds could finish the 82-game regular season with a losing record. That's not fair. Losers shouldn't get a chance to play for a championship.
TRAVIS ROBINETT
trobinett@kansan.com
If the NBA were to make this move, the grueling amount of time the playoffs take would be reduced, the postseason matchups would be much more competitive and interesting from the start and the regular season games would mean twice as much as they do now. Every team would fight as hard as it
could from the beginning of the season to the end, trying to earn one of the four

finishing first in the conference's weakest division. In an NBA playoff with only four spots per conference, a team like Denver does not deserve to be included.
For example, this year the three seed in the Western Conference is the Denver Nuggets, a team that could finish with a worse record than the seven seed, again depending on what happens in the last two games of the regular season. The Nuggets only earned that spot by
To solve this problem, each conference should only have two divisions, with two playoff wildcards. This would allow for the absolute best competition and the most exciting way for the NBA championship to be decided.
So are you listening, NBA? Do you want your regular season and playoffs to be more exciting? Do you want to generate more fan interest? Then do yourself a favor and take my advice.

WOMEN'S GOLE Four golfers named to Academic All-Big 12
Four members of the Kansas women's golf team were named to the 2006 Academic All-Big 12 team Monday. Included on the first team were senior Chelsey Pryor, senior Meredith Winkelmann, junior Amanda Costner, and sophomore Annie Glangrosso.
The Big 12 league office announced all 41 members of the Academic All-Big 12 team in a statement Monday.
Costner and Pryor made the team for the second and third times respectively, while Winkelmann and Giangrosso made their first appearances on the team.
To make the first team, athletes must have a 3.2 GPA or better.Those with GPAs between 3.19 and 3.00 are named to the second team.
Kansas began the Big 12 Championship Monday in Lincoln, Neb., and will continue competing through Wednesday.

DENVER — Julius Hodge sat at a table by midcourt, his left leg in a walking boot, his flesh and bones still mending from the four bullets that pierced his body in a drive-by shooting.
The 22-year-old Denver Nuggets rookie returned to the Pepsi Center on Monday for the first time since the shooting nine days earlier.
NBA BASKETBALL Shooting victim shows no bitterness, no anger
He'll want to take this opportunity to let everyone know that I'm feeling good and on the road to recovery," Hodge said at the team's shoot-around, his first public comments since the shooting.

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
During a weekend of unpredictable weather, Kansas men's golf coach Ross Randall also got a few surprises from the bottom of the lineup.

"The golf course was extremely difficult because they haven't had a chance to cut the grass in about three weeks," Randall said. "The rough was as thick as these guys have ever played."
Randall has shuffled the lineup repeatedly in recent weeks in search of consistent play heading into next week's Big 12 Championship. Docking's emergence might have reassured Randall that the team would be deep enough to enjoy postseason success.
"Tyler played pretty well, and for us to be a good team, we need him to be in the lineup playing well," Randall said.
Docking, who struggled to
find his stroke early in the season, said he was confident about his game going into the Big 12 Championship.
"I really played great at this tournament; so in terms of my confidence and ability level, I'm really above and beyond anywhere I've been this year," Docking said.
Docking's first-round 71 helped him finish in a tie for 15th place individually. Senior Luke Trammell put together two
strong rounds to finish in a tie for 43rd, while redshirt freshman Zach Pederson rode a strong first round and tied for 54th.
Woodland and Krishn rounded out the Jayhawk scores, tieing for 63rd and 81st.
UCLA edged out USC to take the team honors, and Stanford's sophomore Rob Grube shot a second-round 64 to grab first place individually.

Cards' Pujols ties HR mark

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PITTSBURGH — Albert Pujols tied a major-league record with a home run in his fourth consecutive at-bat, Jason Marquis pitched eight innings of three-hit ball and the St. Louis Cardinals defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates 2-1 Monday night.
A day after hitting three homers, including a gamer-winner, Pujols homeered to center off Pirates starter Paul Maholm (0-2) in the top of the first to give the Cardinals a 2-0 lead.
ous time it was accomplished in the National League was by the Atlanta Braves' Andruw Jones from Sept.7-10, 2002.
Pujols doubled in his next atbat in the third and walked his next time up before flying out to left in the seventh.
It was the 35th time in Major League history that a player has homered in four straight at-bats. Carlos Delgado, then with the Toronto Blue Jays, last did it Sept. 25, 2003. The previ-

hearts.
"It's exciting to see a lot of American guys run well," said Olympic silver medalist Meb Keflezighi, who was third behind Cheruiyot and Kenya's Benjamin Maiyo. "The crowd was just phenomenal. When they were chanting, 'Go USA! Go Mebl Go USA!' I was like, 'I'm glad I'm here.'"
It was the Americans, though, who were boasting of a breakthrough.
BOSTON — The Kenyan national anthem got its annual airplay in the Back Bay on Monday after another Boston Marathon sweep.
Keflezighi, a naturalized citizen from Eritrea who lives in San Diego, ran with the leaders until the 16th mile and then began falling behind.
Brian Sell, from Rochester, Mich., was fourth, catching Alan Culpepper around the last turn before the Copley Square finish.
Robert Cheruiyot finished in 2 hours, 7 minutes, 14 seconds to nip the course record by a single second, and Rita Jeptoon won the women's race for Kenya's fourth sweep since 2000. With five American men in the top 10 — including Nos. 3, 4 and 5 — the United States had its best finish since the addition of prize money in 1986 helped bring back the top international fields.
"When Brian went by me, I thought he was some guy that jumped on the course." Culpepper said, evoking memories of 1980 shortcut-taker Rosie Ruiz.
"We don't talk about this anymore here," moderator Frank Shorr joked.
Culpepper, from Lafayette, Colo., was fourth last year, a performance that matched the best U.S. finish since 1987.
The last American to win in Boston was Lisa Larsen-Weidenbach in 1985; no American man has won since Greg Meyer in 1983, and 12 times since then
"For those of us who are in it and make our profession, we're probably not as surprised as other people. We've seen this coming for a while. We've seen this building," Culpepper said. "I think it is a new day, for sure."
Cheruiyot and Jepto each claim an olive wreath, a bowl of beef stew and a $100,000 first prize. Kenyan men have won 14 of the last 16 Boston titles and its women have won three

indicate disjayed. Cheruyiot had no such troubles. He let Maiyo set a blistering pace and ran off his shoulder before taking the lead going up one of the Newton Hills. He came onto Boylston Street — the last stretch — with almost a minute to break the record, then sprinted the last 50 yards as volunteers waved for him to hurry.
"I think, 'No,'" he said. "And then I see I can make it."
"I think we'd given in to the fact that the East Africans are supposed to dominate the race," said Kevin Hanson, whose club in Rochester, Mich., trained seven of the top 22 men's finishers. "And we haven't come up with a reason why."
Four of Kenya's women's titles belong to Catherine Ndereba, who was not in the field this year. Defending men's champion Hailu Neguskie dropped out just after the halfway point with

With so many talented teams playing in these tournaments, the likelihood of Kansas playing high-quality teams early in the season could increase.
If a team chose not to play in a tournament, the NCAA would push for a rule that allowed teams to play 29 games in a season. The NCAA press release said this would allow teams that did not play in a tournament to play a similar amount of games.

SUDOKU
Sudoku is a number-placing puzzle based on a 9x9 grid with several given numbers. The object is to place the numbers 1 to 9 in the empty squares so that each row, each column and each 3x3 box contains the same number only once.

What are you doing?
I have a song in my head, and I'm trying to knock myself out to get it out.
You worry me sometimes.
Actually, you worry me all the time.
Doug Lang/KANSAN
ARIES (March 21-April 19) *****
Your efforts don't go unnoticed, yet the personal toll could be greater than anticipated.
As a result, you might go into full grump mode. Listen more to what is being shared among those in the know.
Tongtight: Yes, you will need to be a dominant force.
The Stars show the Kind of Day You'll Have 5-Dynamic, 4-Positive, 3-Average, 2-Officient, 1-Official
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ★★★★☆
Relate to and work with each individual as if he or she is the most important person in your life at that moment. You might want to think through a decision that involves those around you. Reactions, as you'll see, might be strong.
Tonight: Relax to good music.
Sam Hemphill/KANSAN
GEMINI [May 21-June 20] ***
Others let you know what they want and expect. It is your call if you are going to give it to them. Think positively and create more of what you want. You easily could overespend. Curb uncontrolled wildness.
Tonight: As you like it
CANCER (June 21-July 22) *****
You might be more pushed than you realize and need to take a break. Think about what must be done as opposed to what you are going to get done. Be positive about your alternatives. Good things will happen.
Tonight: Take a break from the pressure.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) *****
You have the ability to creatively adjust.
You might want to carefully rethink your priorities.
If you want to make a move, you will need to investigate and get feedback.
Evaluate more of what you feel, and situations will work.
Tonight: Put your feet up.
Tonight: Put your feet up.
VIRIGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ***
You are coming from a large space and might want to rethink a personal matter more carefully. As you evaluate on an event, you could decide on a major risk or change.
Brainstorm but be open to potential changes.
Tonight. Full of folly and laughter.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) *****
You are able to do things much differently than in the past. Relax and enjoy yourself with those in your immediate circle. Do not take another's comment seriously. This person could be having more difficulty than you realize.
Tonight At home
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★★★
Your budget might be your highest priority,
but at the moment you could have difficulty
turning a situation around. You might be
much happier if you relax. Decisions don't
have to be made immediately.
*Tonight: As you like.*
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ★★★★
Risking might be important in order to accomplish what you want. Can you afford it — either emotionally or financially — if you flat on your face? Make your financial well-being an even high priority.
Tonight: Listen to another's comments. You don't have to act on them.
CAPICRON (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) **★★
Step back. Timing is for you, as
you will notice later today. You have seen
different problems come up. Handle them,
but only when you are ready and sure of
yourself. Many different elements will work
together.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) *****
Move during the daylight hours, when you are a force to behold. You will like what goes on a lot more if you relax and think in terms of progress. Friends point out the path that leads to where you want to go.
Tonight: Hide out with a favorite person.
Tonight: As you like.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) *****
Instigate changes and assume a more powerful stand. You will have a lot to do and accomplish. On some level you might be totally overwhelmed. Listen to what is shared on a deeper level.
Tonight. Find your pals.

hawks .286 team batting average.
At the plate, third baseman Brayden Drake went 3-5 and drove in three runs in Sunday's loss to Wichita State. Drake's four hammers tied him for the team lead while his 22 RBI topped the Bears hitters. On the home front, freshman first baseman Preston Land went 4-10 against the Cowboys, gathering five RBI and two long balls, his fifth and sixth of the year.

With the same overall and conference records, Kansas is tied with Baylor for fourth in the Big 12 standings. Tonight's match-up will hold more weight than a mere win or loss. Tough non-conference games help put stock in the team's

McNamara has found himself pitching in three of the Jayhawks four mid-week games. McNamara will throw opposite sophomore righthander Jake Schafe (2-1, 4.40).

Negotiations on hold for GTAs

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 19, 2006
Contract negotiations have stalled between the Kansas Association of Public Employees, which represents the graduate teaching assistants on the Umi-
versity of Kansas' Lawrence campus, and the University.

He said they were progressing well and had signed off on four articles drafted by the

"That doesn't serve anybody's interests." Bretz said.
Lynn Britz, University spokeswoman, said that department heads and administrators interested in recruiting top-quality graduate students wanted the negotiations to be settled as soon as possible. She said, having the contract up in the air was causing problems for both sides.
The University offered a lump sum at the end of the semester representing the salary increase the GTAs would have received for the Spring 2006 semester along with subsequent salary increases. KAPE rejected the offer to pursue non-monetary issues, Bretz said.

"We did that in the spirit of negotiation and good faith," Waugh said.
He said that the disagreement between
the University and the negotiations committee about certain contract articles would not prevent negotiations regarding other parts of the contract.
"The entire contract should not be hinged on one article," he said.
The biggest point of disagreement in the negotiations that doesn't relate to salary is the 10-semester limit on GTA positions, he said.
The University said it pushed GTAs to complete their degrees and kept positions open for incoming graduate students.
Brian Azcona, also a co-president of GTAC, said the University had never provided data supporting its claim that the limit pushed students to finish their degrees.

Before the march down to City Hall, Justin La Mort told participants in favor of changing the noise ordinance that he hoped the Lawrence City Commission would listen to them today. This was not the case.

Hashinger Hall increases resident fees

Construction continues on Hashinger Hall. The prices for living at residence halls this fall, including the newly renovated Hashinger hall, will vary based on new amenities and upgrades.
BY RACHEL PARKER
rparker@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITE
Hashinger Hall, which is scheduled to re-open this fall, will increase housing costs from last year. The hall, as well as other renovated residence halls, will cost more than the traditional residence halls.
Hashinger will cost $3,655 for a double room, $3,921 for a large two-person room and $4,513 for a single room. Last year Hashinger costs ranged from $2,594 to $3,434.
The average residence hall room and board costs are $5,750 for the 2006-2007 school year, a 5.5 percent increase from this year's rates.
This year's average residence hall room and board costs are $5,502.
Diana Robertson, interim director of the Department of Student Housing, said at the request of students all of Hashinger's rooms would be equivalent to Ellsworth Hall's two-person rooms with a sink.
There are six rates for residence halls in 2006-2007. The renovated halls — Ellsworth, Hashinger, Lewis and Templin — range from $3,655 to $4,513 while traditional halls — Oliver, McCollium and GSP-Corbin — range from $2,997 to $3,881. In residence halls students can choose from suites, double
KU Cuisine meal plan rates will not increase for next year. The meal plans are available to all KU students, faculty and staff in different priced packages from $1,240 to $3,100.
Robertson said increased rates helped the University adjust to increased utility costs, materials and other general operational costs such as salary increases enforced by the state. She said anticipating the costs a year ahead was sometimes difficult.
The residents currently participating in "Home Away from Hash," a program in which former Hashinger residents live in other residence halls and continue Hashinger traditions, will be on the priority list during the selection process, granted they fill out an intent to return application.
The general rate for student housing costs has been on a steady rise for years. However, the University still has affordable rates that are below the average of public and private universities nationwide, according to College Board, an organization that helps students in their college searches.
"We operate in a pretty lean way, and we've worked real hard over the years to keep the rates as low as possible," she said.
Robertson said Hashinger, which is known by the housing department as the "Center for Creative Arts," would include an application form from which students would be selected into the residence hall, in addition to a first-come, first-serve basis. This process is also used for Ellsworth, Lewis and Templin Halls.

With oil prices reaching a record-high $71 a barrel Tuesday, Adam Lawson will have to spend more money filling up his two five-speed Ford Mustang.
Lawson, Wichita junior, said his car only got about 20 miles per gallon. With the rising cost of oil, the two-and-a-half-hour drive he makes twice a month to see family and friends will become even more expensive.
The added expense shouldn't drastically alter life in Lawrence
"I'm probably just going to have to start buying cheaper beer," Lawson said.
Prices set record
Katie Lange, Lawrence junior pumps gas. Lange said she didn't always fill the tank because of high gas prices.

Magazine mistake mixes up Wyoming
CHEYENNE, Wyo. — Where

Wvoming?
The May cover story of Sunset, a California-based magazine about life in the West, detailed some of the top campgrounds in the West, including six Montana locations. But a map accompanying the article shows five of those six "Montana" sites are actually in Wyoming — three of them in Yellowstone National Park.
Dale Conour, Sunset's deputy editor, said the listing was a mistake and that the Menlo Park, Calif.-based magazine was sending letters to subscribers notifying them of the error. He also said a story planned for the July issue would correctly report Yellowstone's location.
About 90 percent of the park is in Wyoming; the park's northern tier is in Montana, with a western sliver falling in Idaho.

HONOLULU — The humuhumunukunukuapuaa officially lost its title as the state fish more than a decade ago but is set to reclaim the honor.
Former state fish set to officially reclaim title
A bill reinstating the critter — known as humuhumu for short — passed the Legislature on Monday and heads next to the office of Gov. Linda Lingle for a signature.
The little fish with the long name was deposed in 1990 by a clause that expired after five years in the law that gave it its crown.
But few in the state were aware of the change and the fish, also known as the rectangular triggerfish, and it has continued to be touted as Hawaii's state fish.
The measure is credited by its introducer, Rep. Blake Oshiro, to the 6-year-old son of a friend and constituent, Joel Itomura. It was itomura who brought the lack of an official designation for the humuhumu to the attention of Oshiro, D-Aiea-Halawa.
Lingle now has 10 days to potentially veto the bill. The Associated Press

Membership in the Dayton Woman's Club topped 1,400 in the 1950s but has fallen to just 307 as lifestyles changed and members aged. The average age among members is 70, said club president Barbara Markham. The identity of the first man to join the club was to be revealed at a ceremony Tuesday. Other men may be asked to join.

After being elected last Wednesday, Boots and Horen started the hiring process for their executive staff right away. The two have been reviewing applications and making their decisions to be presented in joint senate for approval.

"My advice to them would be to always remember that they're elected by the student body," she said. "And their responsibility is to serve the student body before they serve themselves or their fellow senators."

STATE Cheney visits Ft. Riley to support war efforts
FORT RILEY — Vice President Dick Cheney used a visit Tuesday to this Army post for a morale-boosting rally for thousands of soldiers, even as questions about foreign policy continued to swirl about the administration.
Cheney took to a round stage on the Cavalry Parade Field on the south end of the post to praise the military for its service during the 3-year-old war in Iraq and efforts to combat terrorism worldwide. His stage was circled by bleachers.
"Terrorists will fail when soldiers like you are standing in the way,"the vice president said.
Just before Cheney arrived in Kansas, President Bush reiterated his support for Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld. Last week, six retired generals called for Rumsfeld to resign, saying he had ignored field commanders' advice, mishandled the war and operated with an arrogant management style.
Bush also discussed Iran's nuclear ambitions and hopes that diplomatic efforts could prevent that nation from developing atomic weapons.
He also said the United States should stay its course
Cheney didn't mention Iran or Rumsfeld. But he defended the war in Iraq, pointing to elections last year as evidence of success toward creating a stable, democratic nation. He said making Iraq stable would promote stability in the Middle East.
because, "We are a nation that keeps its word."
Cheney visited Fort Leavenworth in January, but his trip Tuesday was the first by a president or vice president to Fort Riley since an Easter 1943 visit by President Franklin Roosevelt.
In Washington, before Cheney's visit, Bush said "what's best" is for "Don Rumsfeld to remain as the secretary of defense." Rumsfeld also said he hasn't considered resigning.
As for Iran, Bush said "all options are on the table" to prevent that nation from developing atomic weapons but promised to focus on international diplomacy.
Cheney also came to Fort Riley to award a brigade a Valorous Unit citation.

BOWLING
CLEVELAND
BY JEFF DETTERS
editor@kansan.com
KANSAN CORRESPONDENT
More KU students are spending their Friday and Saturday nights between the hours of 10 p.m. and 1 a.m. at the Jaybowl for SUA-sponsored cosmic bowling. To heighten the bowling experience, the staff uses black lights and disco balls.
DeMarco Smith, New Orleans sophomore, bowls during his HSES 108 Basic Skill Instruction in Bowling class. The class is taught by Kelly Sanders, Omaha, Neb., senior, on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Becca Market, Savannah, Ga., senior, has worked at the Jaybowl for two years and has seen bowling steadily increase in popularity in that time. Cosmic bowling, which began last semester, has taken the Jaybowl by storm.
105
When Alex Donoso, Somerville, N.J., sophomore, transferred to the University this semester, he didn't know anyone. Bowling became a way for him to make friends. He is now a regular at the Jaybowl and is usually there on Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights.
"It started out pretty popular, but they were mainly the same people," Market said. "Now there are different groups."
Donoso has made many friends while working there, including others on the staff. In fact, Donoso has enjoyed bowling so much he plans to try out for the bowling team in August. But until then, Donoso will continue to enjoy the cosmic experience at the Jaybowl. He said he encouraged everyone to give it a try.
The Jaybowl has 12 lanes, each with the potential to hold eight bowlers. Market said the alley served about 100 customers each night. One reason for the popularity, Market said, was the free admission. And because the Jaybowl is a non-drinking facility, it offers a fun alternative to younger students.
"It's like a small party" Donosco said. "Everyone has a good time."

Noise
The group was most interested in the decibel noise limit based upon their own research about other cities. Ashley Stubblefield, Liberty, Mo., senior and Delta Force member, said the group would continue to petition to evoke change.
Each city commissioner thanked the students for attending the meeting and showing interest. Commissioner David Schauner said he wished there were as many students present at every commission meeting.
Members from various neighborhood organizations also attended the meeting. James Dunn from the Oread Neighborhood Association said that his organization was comfortable with the ordinance as it stood.
Tom Harper from the Centennial House Association agreed and commended Lawrence Police Chief Ron Olin for dealing with the complaints.
Staff attorney Scott Miller, who wrote the memorandum that was brought to the commission, encouraged members of the commission to oppose the decibel limit because the cost would be high and enforcement would be difficult.
The commission also discussed changing one of the exceptions to the noise ordinance - construction. The matter was left alone because of the lack of a problem in Lawrence.
The commissioners asked for more information from city staff to bring up the issue again if problems arise.

Gas
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
Even though the price of oil rose and gas prices are likely to rise soon, it was business as usual at Presto 31 convenience store, 1802 W. 23rd St.
Presto 31 employee and Lawrence resident Molly Henricks said customers were not rushing to the pumps, expecting an increase.
"We haven't risen our prices yet, but even if we do I don't think much will change." Henricks said.
Still, even with the potential of gas at such high prices, Lawson has no intention of trading in his car for one of a more fuel efficient variety. The high-powered Mustang may not have the best fuel economy, but the car has other qualities, he said.
Some experts have predict
ed prices could rise as high as $3.50 per gallon in some parts of the country.
"It picks up chicks," Lawson said.
— The Associated Press contributed to this story.
GTA
"When policies like these are enacted, research should go into them to show that they're wise policies," Azcona said.

GTAC also wants to make a presentation about the organization at the orientation session for GTAs.
Waugh said that there was not a longer limit for those seeking both a doctorate and a master's degree, but GTAs could typically only take six credit hours a semester while teaching.
Bretz said that the University defines it as a pedagogical orientation and that it is entirely about teaching. She said the University did not consider it appropriate for orientation to be used to expose incoming GTAs to outside organizations.
Waugh said it was difficult to reach all the GTAs because they could not use University property to communicate with GTAs about GTAC. He said using departmental mailboxes and sending messages to KU e-mail addresses were also not allowed.
"The common avenues are just cut," he said.
Resting while you work
The salary negotiations are also a problem. The University's offer for salaries starts at $11,000 for 2007, increasing to $12,000 by 2009.
According to the Office of Student Financial Aid Web site, the cost of attending the University for the 2005-06 academic year is $13,674. This does not include tuition, which is waived for GTAs.

Judge intervenes on Kansas sex law
STATE
BY ROXANNA HEGEMON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WICHITA — A federal judge ruled Tuesday that doctors, teachers and others are not always required to report underage sex between consenting youths as possible abuse.
U. S. District Judge J. Thomas Marten granted a permanent injunction in the case filed by the Center for Reproductive Rights, a New York advocacy group, on behalf of Kansas health care providers and others in a constitutional challenge to Kansas Attorney General Phill Kline's
interpretation of the state's mandatereporting law.
Marten ruled that a plain reading of the Kansas statute gives mandatory reporters discretion to determine whether to suspect a child has been injured as a result of sexual abuse.
"Contrary to defendants' claims, a prosecutor is not in a better position to make an initial determination of 'injury,' as required by statute, than is a health care professional," Marten wrote.
requires health care providers and others to tell authorities about consensual sex involving underage youths.
The lawsuit stems from Kline's 2003 opinion that the state's 1982 mandatory reporting law
The Center for Reproductive Rights contends that forced reporting discourages adolescents from seeking counseling and medical treatment and violates their right to informational privacy.
The attorney general's office contended the statute requires mandatory reporting because sex is inherently harmful to underage children. In Kansas, the age of consent is 16.
The opinion does not change
the law or policy as it has been applied in Kansas since 1982, and upholds both, according to the opinion. Every case in which there is a reasonable suspicion of injury caused by abuse must continue to be reported to SRS. The case is not about whether adult sexual predators will escape detection, the judge said.
"This case certainly is not about promoting sexual promiscuity among underage persons," Marten wrote. "It recognizes that sexual activity among underage persons occurs, and that any such activity that injures the minor will be reported."

Tonight Expect to be up late, visiting or working.
Seth Bundv/KANSAN
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ★★★★
Take an overview and gain a better understanding of what might be going on behind the scenes or what is not being said.
Unexpected reactions will follow if you nail a situation. You will know you are right-on.
Tonight. Follow the music.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) ******
Deal with a financial or trusted advisor. You might think you are heading on the correct course, only to suddenly run to the show if you feel a bit off-kilter. Passive can be good.
Tonight. Go for duo.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) *****
Others seek you out. At some point in the day you might feel so frazzled that you could react or become unusually touchy.
A firm financial approach makes you feel much better. You need security in order to flourish.
Say yes to an invitation.
Tonight: Say yes to an invitation.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) *****
What you add to any situation is a solid perspective and way of looking at issues.
You might want to rethink a habit or routine.
Perhaps your automatic behavior doesn't work anymore.
Tonight. Get some exercise.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ******
You could be far more insightful than you realize. An observation or some idea easily could blow someone out of the water. This person might have a strong negative reaction, as you could be too "insightful."
Tonight: Happiness plus.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) *****
Anchor in, knowing what is good for you.
Others might see you as stubborn. Perhaps a long-aureogave conversation and swapping of ideas could ease the pressure. Making money is as natural as spending it.
Tonight: Happy at home.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ******
Your positive attitude can smooth rough
waters. Others appreciate your insight-
fulness and thought process. Creativity
spins out from you. Your magnetism draws
someone unusual to your camp.
Tonight: Hang out.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
*****
Sagittarius is lucky with money, but also spends it well. The emphasis will be on how you handle your funds. Others might ask for advice. Take care of yourself first. Think through an offer or a risk. Don't jump on it. Tonight: Treat yourself to a plant, favorite CD or great book.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)*****
With the Moon energizing your sign, the Force is with you. The only negative might be that if you think negatively, you are likely to create just that. Look at what the universe does today. You might learn a lot about yourself.
Tonight: As you like.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★★
Use your instinctive abilities when dealing with those in charge. You will find that many people appreciate your suggestions, especially if you are willing to be more subtle than usual. Information must be kept mum.
Tonight: Get some much-needed rest.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) *****
You might want to zoom in on what you want. Others might find you ingenious or unstable. Remember that how others look at you has a lot to do with who they are and their behavior. Go for what you want.
Tonight. Where the crowds are.

University makes good with Honors program
PAGE 7A
Universities and colleges offer more to students than just the chance to earn an undergraduate degree. Athletics, study abroad programs and community service are several areas where institutions put their resources, not only to make themselves look attractive to prospective students, but also to boost their own prestige.
The University is trying to revamp one of the amenities it possesses: The honors program. Not only will the improvements make the program better for the students that use it, but it could also go toward bringing the University closer to that coveted top-25 ranking.
A number of changes to the program are planned. Stricter admission standards, more classes that focus on the application and importance of academics in the real world and more classes that appeal to junior and seniors. A "common class," similar in concept to the Western Civilization courses
Issue: Honors program upgrades
Stance: The University's upgrades to the program will benefit all students.
air Liberal Arts & Science undergraduates must take, will help unite honors students.
All the changes would aid in getting the University closer to a top-25 ranking, but the benefits to honors students would be excellent, too. When they graduate and walk down Campanile Hill, their degrees will be more valuable to employers and neighbors. They'll have been further trained to take their education and apply it to their jobs and communities.
In the future, tt will mean something more to have graduated from the University of Kansas with honors.

Abstinence reconsidered; no sex one of many options
COMMENTARY
This past semester the words normally occupying this space have documented the crazy, frenetic, sometimes mixed-up world of sex, love and relationships. Yet nowhere in those five previous columns has abstinence been mentioned.
While large populations of us regularly take advantage of our right to freely participate in sexual activities, there are still many of us who choose to avoid them altogether.
DANIELA SCHWARZ
Whether we have no possibilities and no luck in the bedroom or we just don't want to partake in any bedroom activities, it is not just the devoutly religious who are saying no to sex outside the confines of marriage. "The 40-Year-Old Virgin" is not just a movie. On this campus and around the world, young and old alike are waiting for the right person or the right time and holding on to what remains important and sacred to them.
COURTNEY HAGEN opinion@kansan.com
What seems most atypical and incongruent to me is the large number of males that I know that are just saying no to sex. While this idea challenges the stereotypical images that many hold of a hypersexual and emotionally unattached male, many are reporting that they have chosen not to have sex because they just haven't met the right person or just weren't ready for all the strings that are invariably attached.
Are the growing number of males who are turning their backs on sex and turning onto a deeper emotional connection signifying a role reversal in our
Whatever the answer, the trend seems to be tipping the scales in favor of abstinence. On March 15, the Kansas State Board of Education made history by voting Kansas the first state in the nation to require parental permission from parents to allow their children to take sexual education classes. The vote was a step in the direction towards advocating for abstinence, by trying to control the numbers of students who would receive information about both sex and abstinence in the classes.
In the coming weeks the Board will also be discussing whether sexual education should be taught at all. The Board is facing the heady decision to ban certain books that are considered racy or obscene and to require an abstinence-only education in public schools.
While abstinence seems to be growing in prominence, our public educational systems should not systematically annihilate a student's right to learn about both sex and abstinence. Students have the right to be presented with all the information there is on options and choices, so that they can critically make their own healthy and personally beneficial choices.
Learning about your choices and sexual freedoms, including the right to say no to sex, should not and does not lead students down a path to sexual promiscuity — as proven by my sexually intelligent, virgin male friends. They deserve the right to know in order to make educated choices. Not providing all the information and options to students is lying by omission. It is only after one has all the facts that one can most effectively make smart choices.
Parents and the School Board should not be afraid of sexual education. In some ways, wellrounded sexual knowledge can act to dissuade people from sex. With sex comes responsibilities and necessary precautions. For some the knowledge and threat of STDs, pregnancy, moral violation and emotional vulnerability and attachment is enough of a headache to keep them abstinent — at least until the right person comes along.
Until next time...

Allegations of bias unfounded; issue reported fairly
LETTER TO THE EDITOR
I was disappointed to see two pieces in Monday's Kansan criticizing Erin Wisdom's article, "Choice of a Lifetime," for being biased toward a pro-life viewpoint. After reading the article on Thursday, I was pleasantly surprised by how fair the reporting actually was and how both perspectives were discussed equally in the article. To verify my initial reaction, I decided to see how much evidence from each side was
After doing a quick count of different components of the article, it seems that the article contained four personal stories. Two people regretted having an abortion, and two did not. Expert testimony was used in the article five times. Two said abortions were not usually regretted, one said they often were, and contradictory testimony about abortion doctors being more interested in money
used in her article.
than in helping women.
There are also several studies. One gave the statistics on numbers of abortions in the US and two were contradictory studies examining the prevalence of regret following an abortion. There are several contradictory studies about adverse health affects following abortions. And there is one scholarly article about the biological makeup of fetuses, and Wisdom disclosed that the author of the
study believed that "human persons" begin at conception so that the readers may take the author's bias into account.
Looking at the makeup of the article, it is impossible to come to the conclusion that it was significantly biased one way or another.
Wisdom did a fine job of making sure that both perspectives were included on every topic — indeed, not a single significant point went
without being refuted by the other side.
It seems that some people were upset that their own biases were not confirmed by the article, but that in itself does not make the article biased. Wisdom should be proud of the article, and those upset by it should examine what "bias" actually means.

COMMENTARY

opinion@hansan.com
I spent several hours outside on Friday night. After nearly an hour of standing in the sun, I decided it was hotter than it ever should be in April. This simple fact was reinforced when I got home Friday night and found that my house was without air conditioning. If anyone is willing to claim that there is no such thing as global warming I would challenge them to mow my lawn tomorrow.
The next thing that leapt to the forefront of my mind was how much driving around campus I had done in the past week. If everyone is doing this, we must be adding to global warming in a significant way.
Some higher education institutions, such as the University of California-Santa Barbara, have established programs to help reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases by their faculty, staff, and students. There are two key areas that UCSB has focused on that could be applied here at the University.
Carpooling is an area that the University has not taken sufficient strides to establish as part of our culture. With several students living in areas close to one another or in apartment complexes, carpooling is a realistic option. Some measures that could be implemented are an online matching list that students, staff and faculty could access to find a carpooling group in their area.
If we want to be serious about carpooling we must also offer incentives to those groups that are willing to help out. Such incentives could include reduced parking fees, specialized lots for carpoolers and a rebate on Park and Ride passes for carpool members.
Another area that Kansas is lacking in is its support of bicyclists. UCSB has free lockers for bike riders to lock their bikes in. This would not only encourage people to bike to campus, but it would also leave the KU Public Safety Office with fewer bike thefts to deal with. UCSB also has free showers for anyone who rides their bike to campus. This becomes especially nice as the weather warms up. This idea could easily be accommodated by allowing bicyclists to use dorm showers.
A more difficult task that could increase bike traffic is lobbying the Lawrence City Council for establishment of bike lanes throughout the city — especially on roads leading toward and into campus. Though bike lanes would be difficult to have on campus because of foot traffic and the constant bus traffic, off campus they could be a valuable asset in the battle to keep cool.
With a few simple and relatively cheap actions the University could be well on its way toward a greener campus and a cooler tomorrow.

KU students take to the lawn to show they’re about more than just climbing
WALK THE LINE
BY EMILY HENDRICKS
editor@kansan.com
KANSAN CORRESPONDENT
If you walk to Stauffer-Flint Hall or the Art and Design building on a nice day you might see a spectacle on your way to class.
That show is people balancing precariously on a stretch of nylon suspended between two trees. Just who these people are and what they are doing is probably a mystery to most students.
Contrary to public opinion, this feat is not tightrope walking. It's called slack lining, and those doing it are members of
the KU Rock Climbing Club.
Slack lining is a sport as well as a mind game for those brave enough to try it. It involves suspending nylon between two trees and using muscle, coordination and mental discipline to stride the length of it or try various tricks.
Slack lining, by its very definition, differs from tightrope walking. The nylon is springy so it can sway side to side or up and down, making balance much more difficult.
The middle of the line has more bounce, so this is where slack liners will try tricks like surfing, which involves rocking
the line rapidly back and forth while balancing on it.
Why slack line? For club members Ben Reader, Wichita sophomore, and Danny Loental, KU graduate, it provides a way for them to get together and do a fun and challenging outdoor sport.
They often slack line during the week and go on rock climbing trips over the weekend. Slack lining is not meant to be exclusive; members of the club encourage other students to stop by and give it a try for themselves.

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
Considering Kansas' recent struggles to score runs early in games, a "1" on the scoreboard after one inning in the Jayhawks' favor was a welcome sight.
Against Missouri State, Kansas was up 3-0 after three innings, thanks in part to the top half of its lineup. Sophomore Brock Simpson and seniors Ritchie Price, Matt Baty and Jared Schweitzer were the first four batters in the Jayhawks' order and they struck early and often.
In seven of its past nine games before Tuesday, Kansas had failed to score three runs in its first three innings and hadn't scored more than three runs in its first three innings since March 18 against Baylor. One major reason had been inconsistent hitting at the top of the order.
"It's a pleasure to coach when you've got guys that can handle the bat and guys that can put the ball on the ground and execute it, get themselves in scoring position," Kansas coach Ritch Price said.
Randall Sanders/KANSAN
Price and Baty got the Kansas offense started in the first, and Simpson and Schweitzer followed suit. The four combined to go 10-for-17 with 10 runs and 9 RBI.
With one out in the bottom of the third, Simpson launched his third home run of the season. Two batters later, Baty recorded a base hit and ended up on third base after a fielding error by Missouri State sophomore pitcher Jake Shafer. Baty wasn't on third long; Schweitzer singled to right field to drive him in and give Kansas a 3-0 lead.
Sophomore designated hitter Brock Simpson, right, is congratulated by coach Ritch Price after hitting his third home run of the season in the third inning. Simpson had three hits, three RBI and scored three runs during the game.
The beating didn't end after the third. With two on and two out the next inning, Simpson struck again with a triple, plating freshmen first baseman Preston Land and catcher Buck Alenir. Price returned the favor, driving Simpson in with a double to right-center field.

Kansas pummels its way past Missouri State, 19-7
BY ALISSA BAUER
abauer@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Last season Kansas was outscored 23-10 the two times they faced Missouri State.
The Jayhawks made sure this year was different Tuesday night.
The Hawks put together their best offensive performance of the season and withstood a late rally by the Bears for a 19-7 victory at Hogglund Ballpark.
"It's to the point that regional seedings are coming up for the NCAA tournament," sophomore outfielder Brock Simpson said. "At this point every game is huge and everybody takes it personal."
Kansas coach Ritch Price said he remembered researching past seasons when deciding if he would take the job in Lawrence
four years ago, and the 20-run games Missouri State would hang on Kansas stuck out.
The Jayhawks beat the Bears twice in his first season at Kansas but had lost the last three before Tuesday night.
Senior outfielder Matt Baty drove in fellow senior Ritchie Price to get his team on the board in the first inning.
"We needed to re-establish that we're going to win on Tuesday nights." Price said.
The Kansas offense delivered a variety of ways to do just that. By game end, eight of the nine Jayhawk starters collected at least one hit.
Baty hit in the third spot in the lineup Tuesday night and continued to set the pace for the offense in the same style he did as the leadoff man.

Bunge, Kansas head coach said she wouldn't announce the starting lineup until game time.
Bunge tested her game for the first time on Sunday in the Jayhawks' 3-2 victory against Texas Tech, when she didn't announce that Kassie Humphreys would be the starting pitcher until right after warmups.
"As a team, the coaches and players can't look ahead," she said.
"It was shocking," the junior

pitcher said. "Coach doesn't do that often, but I felt good though."
Other changes to the lineup included starting senior Ashley Goodrich and sophomore Besty Wilson in the outfield in place of seniors Nettie Fierros and Heather Stanley. Junior first baseman Nicole Washburn also batted second in the lineup rather than hitting in her normal eight spot.
The changes paid off, as Humphreys didn't give up any earned runs and allowed just three hits in seven innings. Goodrich, Washburn and Wilson combined for six hits, two RBI and one run.
Today, Kansas (23-20 overall 4-6 Big 12) will need that type of offensive performance in order to exact its revenge on Missouri, which dominated Kansas Wednesday, 4-0.
Last week, Missouri (20-18, 4-5) did what no other team had been able to do against the Jayhawks: hit the ball well with Humphreys on the mound. The Tigers had their way with the right-hander as they pushed four runs across and knocked her around for seven hits in five innings.
"It was brutal." Humphreys said "I just didn't feel it in my pitching that day."
The opposite occurred for Kansas' offense, which produced only one hit against its border rival. Bunge said that better offensive production would be a major key for the game today.

Kansas football prepares for fall
MATT WILSON
mwilson@kansan.com

There are only 136 days until the Kansas football team kicks off its 2006 season against Northwestern State.
But despite the buzz surrounding the KU signal-caller, the most important aspect to watch for during practice this fall will be whether the defense will be able to return to its championship form after losing several key players to graduation and the NFL Draft.
Between now and then, the hottest discussions around town regarding football will be centered on the Jayhawks' quarterback situation. As of now, redshirt freshman Kerry Meier looks like the starter.
Judging by the way last Friday's spring game went for most of the first half, the defense will be just fine. Punt after punt sailed off the foot of junior Kyle Tucker, much to the delight of nobody, including me, in the crowd of 5,200 at Memorial Stadium who came to see a show from the new quarterbacks.
Tucker, who punted for both the blue and white teams, probably couldn't walk the next day. Kansas coach Mark Mangino should be thrilled to see the performance of his defense.
The Jayhawks' projected running back tandem of senior Jon Cornish and freshman Angus Quigley (surprised he's from Texas?) were held under 100 rushing yards on the evening. That bodies well for the upcoming year, especially when only tackle James McClinton is returning on the defensive front that held opponents to 83.3 yards per game in 2005 — third in the nation.
It will be difficult to replace the best linebacking corps in the Big 12 from a season ago. Former starters Nick Reid, Kevin Kane and Banks Floodman all will be lost to graduation. Their fill-ins could be any number of players at this point.
It was tough to judge the secondary in the spring game. It seemed like it covered the wide receivers well, but at the end of the day Meier threw for three touchdowns and freshman Todd Reesing had one. The total yardage between the three quarter-backs — Meier, Reesing and senior Adam Barmann — totaled only 317 yards.
The secondary will return redshirt sophomore cornerback Aqib Talib and redshirt senior safety Jerome Kemp, both of whom were important members of the Fort Worth Bowl champions. Redshirt freshman Darrell Stuckey will probably be the other starter at corner, but his lack of experience won't necessarily hurt Kansas. Talib was an honorable mention all-Big 12 performer last year, his first following a redshirt season.
Mangino and defensive coordinator Bill Young seem to have implemented a system that makes players, rather than vice versa. The defense figures to produce two draft picks this year in Charlton Keith and Charles Gordon, in addition to David McMillan, who was picked in last year's draft.
It's not Miami or USC, but it's a foundation to build on, and building from scratch is something the KU coaching staff has done well in its four years in Lawrence.

The team travels to Tulsa, Okla., for the Big 12 Championship next Monday and Tuesday.
Four players from the Kansas men's golf team were named to the 2006 Academic All-Big 12 team on Tuesday.
This is the first time Sigler has received Academic All-Big 12 honors, while Krsnich, Rainer and Trammell have each made the team previously.
as head coaches normally do, Prince will be in the radio booth offering color commentary.
It's being billed as Kansas State's inaugural Spring
"I'll be the commissioner of the draft and have a big part in everything that happens," said Prince, who acknowledges he has never done anything like this before.

Duke athletes jailed on rape other charges
Gerry Broome/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BY TIM WHITMIRE THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Duke University lacrosse player Collin Finnerty, center, is lead from the Durham County Judicial Building after a hearing in Durham, N.C., Tuesday. Finnerty was arrested early Tuesday on charges of raping and kidnapping a stripper hired to dance at an off-campus party. With him are attorneys Bill Cotter, left, and Michael Cornacchia, far right.
The district attorney would not say what evidence led to the charges. But Seligmann's attorney, Kirk Osborn, said: "Apparently it was a photographic identification. And we all know how reliable that is."
Reade Seligmann, 20, of Essex Fells, N.J., and Collin Finnerty, 19, of Garden City, N.Y., are accused of attacking a stripper at a team party at an off-campus house on the night of March 13. They were charged with first-degree rape, sexual offense and kidnapping and were released on $400,000 bail each.
DURHAM, N.C. — Two Duke University lacrosse players were arrested on rape charges Tuesday in a scandal that has rocked one of America's elite campuses and raised explosive questions of race, class and the privileged status of college athletes.
Seligman is "absolutely innocent," Osborn said. "He's doing great." Finnerty's attorney, Bill Cotter, said: "The next jury will hear the entire story, which includes our
college athletes
The two players are both graduates of all-boys Roman Catholic prep schools in the suburbs of New York City. District Attorney Mike Nifong said a third player could also be arrested but has yet to be firmly identified.
"It is important that we not only bring the assailants to justice, but also that we lift the cloud of suspicion from those team members who were not involved in the assault." Nifong said.
Lawyers for the two men bitterly assailed the district attorney for bringing the charges. Other attorneys for Duke's lacrosse players said the two were not even present at the time the rape is alleged to have occurred.
evidence, and we're confident that these young men will be found to be innocent."
The case has raised racial tensions and heightened the longstanding town vs. gown antagonism between Duke students and middle class, racially mixed Durham. The accuser is black, and all but one of the 47 lacrosse team members are white.
Well before the scandal, the nationally ranked team had a reputation for a swaggering sense of entitlement and boorish frat-boy behavior that included public intoxication and public urination. After the scandal broke, the university announced an investigation into whether it put up with such behavior for too long.
"Many lives have been touched by this case," said Duke President Richard Brodhead in a statement. "It has brought pain and suffering to all involved, and it deeply challenges our ability to balance judgment with compassion. As the legal process unfolds, we must hope that it brings a speedy resolution and that the truth of the events is fully clarified."
The case has led to the resignation of the coach and the cancellation of the rest of the season
the university would not comment specifically on any disciplinary action taken against the two men but said it is Duke practice to
suspend students charged with a felony.
Both players are products of wealthy suburbs and Northeastern prep schools. Finney attended Long Island's Chaminade High School, where 99 percent of the students go on to college. Seligmann went to the Delbarton School, a lacrosse powerhouse in Morristown, N.J.
"It is our hope and our conviction that the full truth of all that happened that night will vindicate Reade of these charges," Delbarton's headmaster, the Rev. Luke L. Travers, said in a statement.
Finnerty, however, was charged in Washington with assault after a man told police in November that Finnerty and two friends punched him and called him "gay and other derogatory names." Finnerty agreed to community service.
Neither Seligmann and Finney was among the Duke team members arrested in recent years for such offenses as underage drinking and public urination.
Seligmann, a 6-foot-1 sophomore, and Finnerty, a 6-foot-3 sophomore, were in handcuffs when they stepped out of a police cruiser at the Durham County Jail early Tuesday. Their early-morning surrenders were arranged as part of a deal with Nifong in which they were bailed out of jail in a matter of hours.

Chiefs sign free-agent cornerback Johnson
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City Chiefs signed freeagent cornerback Chris Johnson on Tuesday, as the team searches for a starter to play opposite Patrick Surtain.
Terms of the two-year deal were not announced.
were not allowed to Kansas City has been looking for help in the defensive backfield after releasing Eric Warfield and Dexter McCleon last month, when it looked like the Chiefs were going to be several million dollars over the salary cap. The NFL and its players' union eventually reached a new labor deal.
labor deal.
Johnson appeared in 14 games and started once for the St. Louis Rams last season, recording 25 tackles while also spending time as a kick returner.
The speedster who began his career with the Green Bay Packers in 2003 is expected to compete with Lenny Walls, a veteran free agent the Chiefs signed two weeks ago. Julian Battle, Benny Sapp and Alphonso Hodge are also on the roster, and the team could add another cornerback in the draft.
Warfield, an eight-year veteran, started 10 games at right cornerback last season, after sitting out the first four games for violating the NFL's substance abuse policy. He has signed with the New England Patriots.

Kauffman press box to honor late Star editor
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The press box at Kauffman Stadium, home of the Kansas City Royals, will bear the name of Joe McGuff, the former sports editor and later editor of The Kansas City Star.
McGuff died in February at 79 from complications of Lou Gehrig's disease.
Getting to The Royals announced Tuesday that the press box will be named for McGuff in a ceremony before Friday's game with the Cleveland Indians.
Cleveland Indiana McGuff joined The Star as a sports writer in 1948, covering the minor league Kansas City Blues and later the American League's Athletics after that team moved from Philadelphia to Kansas City in 1955.
Later, he played a major role in bringing big league baseball back to Kansas City when industrialist Ewing Kauffman founded the Royals as an AL expansion franchise.
McGuff became sports editor of The Star in 1966, wrote a popular column for many years and was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame. In 1986, he became editor and vice president of The Star and The Kansas City Times, serving until his retirement in 1992.
After retiring, McGuff was elected a director of the Royals, succeeding Gene Budig, when the latter became president of the American League.

Big 12 South has ups and downs as it prepares for next season
This is part one of a twopart series on the Big 12 Conference football offseason. Part one focuses on the Big 12 South division, and Thursday's University Daily Kansan will focus on the North teams.
Texas (13-0, 8-0 Big 12 Conference)
Fresh off a national championship victory against Southern California, Texas looks solid this spring.
"O ur guys did not come out of the national championship game complacent "
coach Mack Brown said.
The quarterback position is the main issue for Texas as Jevan Snead and Colt McCoy are battling for the position after Vince Young declared for the NFL draft.
Brown said he would plan on playing both quarterbacks if the season started today. "We feel we need both of them because we don't have any experience at quarterback," Brown said.
Brown said senior tailback Selvin Young had a great spring and regained his confidence. Brown said Young, who roomed with Vince Young last year, should be one of the leaders on offense.
Kansas will not play Texas this year in the regular season.
Oklahoma (8-4, 6-2 Big 12 Conference)
Oklahoma finished the 2005 season with a victory against
Oregon in the Holiday Bowl. Junior running back Adrian Peterson, an early Heisman trophy candidate, should carry the offense for Oklahoma again this season with Rhett Bomar at quarterback.
The main concern this spring offensively, will be the offensive line. Coach Bob Stearns
OU
said the team lacked depth on the offensive line.
Defensively, the Sooners may well be the best in the conference. The defensive line is loaded with defensive ends Larry Birdine and John Williams, both of whom were lost to injury last season.
"I think we have a chance to be really special defensively," Stoops said.
Kansas will not play Oklahoma this year in the regular season.
Oklahoma State (4-7, 1-7 Big
12 Conference)
The Cowboys will play their spring game this Saturday. Bobby Reid will be the Oklahoma State quarterback for the upcoming season and coach Mike Gundy said he liked Reid's performance so far.
STATE
"Reid is running the football better now, and he needs to make plays running the football," Gundy said.
Gundy said his football team was better than it had been at the end of last season.
"We have better players in the skill positions," he said.
Kansas plays Oklahoma State at home next season on Oct.14.
Texas Tech (9-3, 6-2 Big 12 Conference)
Texas Tech finished last season with a Cotton Bowl loss to Alabama, 13-10. Coach Mike Leach said the running back position was a three-way tie between Kobey Lewis, Shannon Woods and Pete Richardson.
"The odds are, the one that blocks the best is the one that plays the most," Leach said.
T
Sophomore quarterback Graham Harrell appears to be the replacement for Cody Hodges at quarterback, although freshman Chris Todd has made it a battle.
"Both quarterbacks played well, both were real accurate," Leach said of the spring game performances.
Kansas will not play Texas Tech this season.
Baylor (5-6, 2-6 Big 12 Conference)
Baylor coach Guy Morriss said his team accomplished everything it set out to do in the spring.
BU
last year was lack of production in the red zone.
Offensively, the Bears implemented a new system that was easy to teach and easy to learn.
Morriss said Baylor's problem
"A little more production from offense would put us in position to be in a bowl," he said.
Shawn Bell had a good spring game for the Bears at quarterback passing for 239 yards and three touchdowns.
Baylor may also have the best punter in the country. Daniel Sepulveda won the 2004 Ray Guy award as the nation's top punter.
Kansas will travel to Waco, Texas to play Baylor Oct. 21.
Coach Dennis Franchione said the Aggies had a good spring.

than I realistically expected."
Quarterback Stephen McGee will be the starting quarterback for Texas A&M this season.
"Stephen has taken over. This is certainly his team in a lot of ways," Franchione said. "He may only be sophomore, but he is much older in leadership ability."
The Aggie defense also will change from the standard 4-3-4, to a 4-2-5, with five defensive backs.
This would allow for more flexibility in coverage concepts. Franchione said.
Kansas will play Texas A&M at home Oct. 7.

Nuggets playoff bound but remain in slump
BY EDDIE PELLS
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DENVER — Instead of tuning up, the division-champion Denver Nuggets were resting up.
Or so the story went after a loss at home to the Houston Rockets, their third straight embarrassing setback and the second in which forward Carmelo Anthony spent the entire fourth quarter on the bench.
"I'm concerned," center Marcus Camby said Monday night after the 86-83 loss. "I don't like the way we're playing. I don't like our focus going into the playoffs. Hopefully, it can change in the next couple of days."
There is only one more chance for a confidence boost in the regular season Wednesday at Seattle. After that, the playoffs start on the road for the Nuggets (44-37), who won their division and earned the third seed in the West, but won't have a better record than the sixth seed and
Some would argue that champions are supposed to play like champions no matter what the situation. Still, that lack of motivation might be one way to explain why the Nuggets haven't won since last Monday in Portland, when they clinched their first division title in 18 seasons.
thus won't get home-court advantage.
Last Saturday, when they were being blown out by Sacramento at home, coach George Karl was so upset with Anthony and guard Andre Miller, he benched them for the entire fourth quarter, saying they didn't deserve to be on the court.
The next day, Karl said he was angry, questioned the team's effort and said it was "hard to evaluate the lack of commitment in so many areas of basketball."
"Maybe we need a fresh challenge or gig." Karl said. "Once we got the Northwest Division, we kind of drifted away from playing serious basketball."

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Four new Park and Ride buses were unveiled at the Optima Bus Corporation plant on Tuesday in Wichita.
Select faculty members of the University of Kansas were invited to make the two-and-a-half hour trip to look at four of the five new buses, which will be used to shuttle students back and forth from the main campus to the new Park and Ride lot located on West Campus.
The new Park and Ride shuttle service is a fare-free system that can be used by students, staff, faculty and visitors. The new Park and Ride project, along with these new buses, will help reduce the congestion on campus, Danny Kaiser, assistant
to the vice provost for student success, said.
"I have heard people say that it will take longer to get where you need to go on campus. Actually it will take less time because you won't have to hunt for parking spaces," said Kaiser, who also serves as the chairman of the Lawrence Public Transportation Advisory Committee.
poration. Harrison Donna Hultine, director of the parking department, said the new Park and Ride lot would be open by the end of July and the buses would be in use starting on Aug. 14.
The shuttle service will run on an express route that will take six minutes to get from main campus to west campus during peak times, Hultine said. Peak times are from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Law boosts budget
Interest from tuition to bring millions back for University projects
BY FRED A. DAVIS III
Idavis@kansan.com
KANSAN STA WRITER
The University of Kansas will have about $3.3 million more to spend on campus maintenance starting in July 2007.
That money is a part of the tuition interest legislation that was signed into law on Monday by Gov. Kathleen Sebelius. The law takes effect July 1, 2007.

under the new law, interest earned from tuition payments at the six Board of Regents univer-
The law stipulates that the money given to each school must be spent on maintenance projects for the first five years. After that time expires, the university can spend the money as it sees fit.
Figures released by the Kansas Board of Regents estimate $8.5 million will go back to the various Regents schools.
Lindy Eakin, vice provost for administration and finance, said he was not surprised the governor signed the bill, given the overwhelming support it received from the Kansas House and Senate.
and senate.
Eakin said that the estimated $42 million the University would receive during the next five years would help various maintenance projects around campus. As for which projects will be chosen, that decision will come in November or December when the University submits a package to
the Board of Regents detailing its maintenance plans.
Nicole Corcoran, press secretary for the governor, said that allowing tuition and fee payments to stay with the universities would directly benefit students, visitors and faculty.
Corcornan said the bill was essential in the repair and maintenance of campuses around the state and that Sebelius hoped it truly helped both universities and communities.

Vaccination still advised
MMR vaccine combats more than mumps
BY CATHERINE ODSON
codson@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Rheumatoid arthritis weakened her immune system and kept the Chanhassen, Minn., sophomore from being vaccinated as a child. The University of Kansas placed a hold on her enrollment last year until she provided evidence of being ineligible for vaccination.
Valerie Wahbeh doesn't understand why the fact that she never received the MMR vaccine is such a big deal.
But because a majority of the students who got mumps were vaccinated, Wahbeh's not sure why the shot is necessary.
Despite the fact that the shot is required for students, about
MUMPS COUNT
Here are the number of mumps cases as of Wednesday afternoon:
Total cases in Douglas County: 84
1,000 KU students have not received the MMR — mumps, measles and rubella — vaccination, said Patricia Denning, chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center. Students can be exempt for personal, religious or medical reasons, but have to sign a waiver that says they understand the repercussions of not having the vaccine.
Total cases among KU students: 62
Scientists are still investigating why the vaccine hasn't been successful in preventing mumps,

but Denning said it still offered protection against measles and rubella, which are more serious and more than an inconvenience. Measles causes cold-like symptoms and a rash and can lead to more serious complications than mumps, such as pneumonia and encephalitis. Denning said measles was more likely to result in fatalities.
The Kansas Department of Health and Environment allowed unvaccinated students to stay on campus, even with the mumps present.
"Those 1,000 students wouldn't be in class right now," Denning said.
mumps present If this was a measles outbreak, the situation would be different, Denning said. The measles virus is more efficient in infecting people.

A measles outbreak in the early '90s kept several hundred unvaccinated students off campus for two weeks, including for the final period. Some students didn't graduate on time because
This year's mumps scare provided a good learning experience about contagious diseases, Denning said. She said the students without the vaccine should reconsider their decision. The larger number of people vaccinated helps keep a disease under control, and getting the vaccine could protect someone who is not medically eligible.
of the delay, Denning said
"Many times people can motivate themselves to do something they don't want to do to protect their friends and family," Denning said.
Despite the fact that one of the girls on her floor was diagnosed with mumps on Wednesday, Wahbeh said she wasn't worried about getting sick. She said she would continue the preventative measures she already took, such as washing her hands and keeping her distance from the sick.

Kansas considers next option

They are trying to find a replacement for Kansas' first-ever sports broadcaster, Max Falkenstein.
ESPN Regional and the Kansas Athletics Department are trekking through new territory.
PETER C. KIDDY
Through out his 60-year tenure, Falkenstien worked Falkenstion alongside several
people, but until now no one has ever had to find someone to take over for the 82-year-old announcer. Falkenstien's March retirement from broadcasting Jayhawk football and basketball
games has opened the door for someone new.
Currently, Bob Davis calls play-by-play. The person who replaces Falkenstien will call the games alongside Davis
Angela Haar, ESPN Regional general manager, is in charge of finding that replacement. Haar said she and the department had received many audition tapes and applications for the position. She said in the next week she would be evaluating all the candidates, then she would meet with the department to determine the best candidate.
Haar said ESPN Regional and the department would not hire a rookie announcer, but rather a seasoned voice.

Nuggets playoff bound but remain in slump
BY EDDIE PELLS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DENVER - Instead of tuning up, the division-champion Denver Nuggets were resting up.
Or so the story went after a loss at home to the Houston Rockets, their third straight embarrassing setback and the second in which forward Carmelo Anthony spent the entire fourth quarter on the bench.
"I'm concerned," center Marcus Camby said Monday night after the 86-83 loss. "I don't like the way we're playing. I don't like our focus going into the playoffs. Hopefully, it can change in the next couple of days."
There is only one more chance for a confidence boost in the regular season Wednesday at Seattle. After that, the playoffs start on the road for the Nuggets (44-37), who won their division and earned the third seed in the West, but won't have a better record than the sixth seed and
thus won't get home-court advantage.
Some would argue that champions are supposed to play like champions no matter what the situation. Still, that lack of motivation might be one way to explain why the Nuggets haven't won since last Monday in Portland, when they clinched their first division title in 18 seasons.
Last Saturday, when they were being blown out by Sacramento at home, coach George Karl was so upset with Anthony and guard Andre Miller, he benched them for the entire fourth quarter, saying they didn't deserve to be on the court.
The next day, Karl said he was angry, questioned the team's effort and said it was "hard to evaluate the lack of commitment in so many areas of basketball."
"Maybe we need a fresh challenge or gig," Karl said. "Once we got the Northwest Division, we kind of drifted away from playing serious basketball."

Four new Park and Ride buses were unveiled at the Optima Bus Corporation plant on Tuesday in Wichita.
Select faculty members of the University of Kansas were invited to make the two-and-a-half hour trip to look at four of the five new buses, which will be used to shuttle students back and forth from the main campus to the new Park and Ride lot located on West Campus.

Donna Hultine, director of the parking department, said the new Park and Ride lot would be open by the end of July and the buses would be in use starting on Aug. 14.
The shuttle service will run on an express route that will take six minutes to get from main campus to west campus during peak times, Hultine said. Peak times are from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

LEGISLATION
Law boosts budget
Interest from tuition to bring millions back for University projects
BY FRED A. DAVIS III
fdavis@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
The University of Kansas will have about $3.3 million more to spend on campus maintenance starting in July 2007.
That money is a part of the tuition interest legislation that was signed into law on Monday by Gov. Kathleen Sebelius. The law takes effect July 1, 2007.
The law stipulates that the money given to each school must be spent on maintenance projects for the first five years. After that time expires, the university can spend the money as it sees fit.
Under the new law, interest earned from tuition payments at the six Board of Regents universities will go back to the respective university, as opposed to its previous destination as part of a general state fund and not necessarily for the universities.
Lindy Eakin, vice provost for administration and finance, said he was not surprised the governor signed the bill, given the overwhelming support it received from the Kansas House and Senate.
Eakin said that the estimated $42 million the University would receive during the next five years would help various maintenance projects around campus. As for which projects will be chosen, that decision will come in November or December when the University submits a package to
the Board of Regents detailing its maintenance plans.
Figures released by the Kansas Board of Regents estimate $8.5 million will go back to the various Regents schools.
Nicole Corcoran, press secretary for the governor, said that allowing tuition and fee payments to stay with the universities would directly benefit students, visitors and faculty
Corcoran said the bill was essential in the repair and maintenance of campuses around the state and that Sebelius hoped it truly helped both universities and communities.

Vaccination still advised
MMR vaccine combats more than mumps
BY CATHERINE ODSON
codson@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Rheumatoid arthritis weakened her immune system and kept the Chanhassen, Minn., sophomore from being vaccinated as a child. The University of Kansas placed a hold on her enrollment last year until she provided evidence of being ineligible for vaccination.
Valerie Wahbeh doesn't understand why the fact that she never received the MMR vaccine is such a big deal.
But because a majority of the students who got mumps were vaccinated, Wahbeh's not sure why the shot is necessary.
Despite the fact that the shot is required for students, about
MUMPS COUNT
Here are the number of mumps cases as of Wednesday afternoon
1,000 KU students have not received the MMR — mumps, measles and rubella — vaccination, said Patricia Denning, chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center. Students can be exempt for personal, religious or medical reasons, but have to sign a waiver that says they understand the repercussions of not having the vaccine.
Total cases in Douglas County: 84
Total cases among KU students: 62
Scientists are still investigating why the vaccine hasn't been successful in preventing mumps,

but Denning said it still offered protection against measles and rubella, which are more serious and more than an inconvenience. Measles causes cold-like symptoms and a rash and can lead to more serious complications than mumps, such as pneumonia and encephalitis. Denning said measles was more likely to result in fatalities.
The Kansas Department of Health and Environment allowed unvaccinated students to stay on campus, even with the mumps present.
If this was a measles outbreak, the situation would be different, Denning said. The measles virus is more efficient in infecting people.
"Those 1,000 students wouldn't be in class right now," Denning said.
A measles outbreak in the early '90s kept several hundred unvaccinated students off campus for two weeks, including for the final periods. Some students didn't graduate on time because
This year's mumps scare provided a good learning experience about contagious diseases, Denning said. She said the students without the vaccine should reconsider their decision. The larger number of people vaccinated helps keep a disease under control, and getting the vaccine could protect someone who is not medically eligible.
"Many times people can motivate themselves to do something they don't want to do to protect their friends and family," Denning said.
of the delay, Denning said.
Denning said.
Despite the fact that one of the girls on her floor was diagnosed with mumps on Wednesday, Wahbeh said she wasn't worried about getting sick. She said she would continue the preventative measures she already took, such as washing her hands and keeping her distance from the sick.

ODD NEWS Man finds 40-year-old fruitcake he misplaced
WAUKESHA, Wis. — Lance Nesta did what many people do when receiving a fruitcake: He set it aside. Only Nesta rediscovered his more than 40 years later in his mother's attic.
Nesta couldn't resist taking a peek at the cake, still in its original tin and wrapped in paper.
The Associated Press
"I was amazed that it hadn't changed at all," he said.
His two aunts sent him the fruitcake in November 1962 while he was stationed in Alaska with the Army, he said.
"I opened it up and didn't know what to do with it," Nesta said. "I sure wasn't going to eat it, and I liked my fellow soldiers too much to share it with them."
As best he can remember, he packed the cake with the rest of his belongings and shipped it home to Waukesha when he left the military a few years later. He recently rediscovered it.
The cake arrived wrapped in brown paper with a red "fragile, handle with care" sticker on it. The cake itself was contained in a round blue tin
printed with the words "Old Fashioned Fruitcake."
"Now it's just old," Nesta said.
Homeless man finds $900,returns money
The Associated Press
SANTA ANA, Calif. — A homeless man searching through garbage bins for recyclable cans found a missing wallet and had it returned to its owner.
Kim Bogue, who works as a janitor in the city's government buildings, realized that her wallet was missing last week and doubted she'd ever get back the $900 and credit cards inside, she said.
"I prayed that night and asked God to help me," said Bogue, who was saving the money for a trip to her native Thailand.
Days later, a homeless man found the wallet wrapped in a plastic bag in a trash bin, where Bogue had accidentally thrown it away with her lunch. He gave it to Sherry Wesley, who works in a nearby building.
"He came to me with the wad of money and said, 'This probably belongs to someone that you work with, can you return it?' Wesley said.

Fire prompts goats to stampede
WEST NEWYORK, N.J.
— When fire broke out at a busy poultry market, the goats weren't sticking around.
A drove of goats hightailed it down a busy avenue as firefighters responded to a three-alarm fire on Tuesday afternoon.
Some firefighters teamed up with market workers to run down the goats by fashioning a corral out of garbage cans and a trash bin, said Jeff Welz, North Hudson Regional Fire and Rescue co-director.
The scheme worked.The Humane Society in Newark stepped in after the fire had been brought under control about 90 minutes later to provide temporary shelter for the goats.

State asks voters for their favorite movie

The Associated Press
HARRISBURG, Pa. — Pennsylvania election officials are trying to make it fun for the state's voters to learn how to use new high-tech voting machines by asking residents to pick their favorite movie.
In the first week of the effort, visitors to an online election site were able to pick their favorite film made in Pennsylvania on a computer simulation of the machines to be used in their home counties in the May 16 primary.
The choices included: "Girl, Interrupted" (filmed in Harrisburg), "Rocky" (Philadelphia), "Silence of the Lambs" (Pittsburgh) and "Witness" (Lancaster). But like in a real election, write-ins were welcome, too.
Fewer than 5,000 people had voted by Monday, a slow start considering that more than half of the state's 67 counties were required to replace their election systems.

STUDENT SENATE
Athletes get seat in final bill
BY NICOLE KELLEY
nkelley@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Outgoing senators left with a bang Wednesday night as they passed the final bill of their term after a two-hour debate.
The bill added a student senator seat for the Student Athlete Advisory Committee, bringing the total number of Student Senate seats up to 91.
This bill first came before Senate two weeks ago, but senators pushed to hold it until after the election. Many didn't agree with SAAC's decision to wait until the Senate ruled before announcing which coalition to back in this year's election.
Arthur Jones, Dallas senior.
gave a speech against the bill because he said he wanted to give SAAC another year to show it deserved to be a part of Senate. He said the "politics" being used by SAAC to get what it wanted was not the way he wanted to see Senate conducted.
Chris Jones, Iowa City senior and member of SAAC, argued in favor of the bill. He said he wanted to give student athletes a voice in Senate issues. He said issues that affected athletes had gone through Senate in the past without the athletes getting to voice their opinions.
One of the issues he used as an example was the debate of whether the University of Kansas should allow its teams to play schools with mascot names
the NCAA deemed disrespectful to Native Americans. Not playing those teams could prevent KU teams from going to national tournaments, he said.
Chris Jones said that he wanted athletes to be involved in more issues than only ones that affected sports. He said giving athletes a seat in Senate would allow them to make a better connection with students.
After deciding on their final bill, the senators last order of business was to elect hold-over senators for next year.
Three senators who have already served but weren't elected this year are selected for this position each year after the general election. The purpose of these seats is to maintain consistency
from one year to the next.
Eight people were nominated. The senators elected were Nolan T. Jones, Pittsburg junior, Bridget Franklin, Topeka senior and Emily Caulfield, Sugar Land, Texas, junior. Jones did not run in this year's elections, Franklin unsuccessfully ran as the vice presidential candidate of Delta Force and Caulfield ran unsuccessfully for Ignite.
Nick Sterner, student body president, gave the new senators some advice during his last speech. He just told them to remember "All you need is love."
The meeting ended with the old senators leaving the floor so new members of Senate could take their seats.

Topeka man charged after Sunday bar fight
A 22-year-old Topeka man was arrested and charged with aggravated assault early Sunday morning after he attempted to use a handgun in a fight outside of Abe and Jake's Landing, according to a Lawrence police report.
Witnesses said the man got into a verbal altercation with a 21-year-old Overland Park man inside the club at Sixth and Vermont streets.The verbal altercation turned physical in the parking lot.
According to the police report, witnesses said they saw the suspect attempt to pull an unidentified type of handgun on the other man. Witnesses said the victim wrestled the gun away from the suspect and pushed him to the ground.
During the scuffle the victim lost an unknown number of gold teeth. According to the police report the suspect and four friends left in a vehicle shortly after the altercation.
Police spotted the vehicle parked in a parking lot adjacent to a nightclub, Last Call, at Seventh and New Hampshire streets. The police asked the driver if there was a weapon in the vehicle and he said no. When police searched the vehicle, however, they recovered a Taurus 9 mm handgun and an unknown number of gold teeth.

White House staff continues shakeup
WASHINGTON - White House political mastermind Karl Rove surrendered a key policy role Wednesday and press secretary Scott McClellan resigned in an escalation of a Bush administration shake-up driven by Republican anxieties.
Rove gave up his responsibilities as chief policy coordinator, a position he assumed just more than a year ago that strengthened his influence over matters ranging from homeland security and domestic policy to the economy and national security. The promotion had left him stretched too thin in the eyes of some officials, as the White House grappled with mounting problems.
ODD NEWS Man finds 40-year-old fruitcake he misplaced
The Associated Press
WAUKESHA, Wis. — Lance Nesta did what many people do when receiving a fruitcake: He set it aside. Only Nesta rediscovered his more than 40 years later in his mother's attic.
Nesta couldn't resist taking a peek at the cake, still in its original tin and wrapped in paper.
"I was amazed that it hadn't changed at all," he said.
His two aunts sent him the fruitcake in November 1962 while he was stationed in Alaska with the Army, he said.
"I opened it up and didn't know what to do with it," Nesta said. "I sure wasn't going to eat it, and I liked my fellow soldiers too much to share it with them."
As best he can remember, he packed the cake with the rest of his belongings and shipped it home to Waukesha when he left the military a few years later. He recently rediscovered it.
The cake arrived wrapped in brown paper with a red "fragile, handle with care" sticker on it. The cake itself was contained in a round blue tin
printed with the words "Old Fashioned Fruitcake."
"Now it's just old," Nesta said.

Homeless man finds $900, returns money
SANTA ANA, Calif. - A homeless man searching through garbage bins for recyclable cans found a missing wallet and had it returned to its owner.
Kim Bogue, who works as a janitor in the city's government buildings, realized that her wallet was missing last week and doubted she'd ever get back the $800 and credit cards inside, she said.
"I prayed that night and asked God to help me," said Bogue, who was saving the money for a trip to her native Thailand.
Days later, a homeless man found the wallet wrapped in a plastic bag in a trash bin, where Bogue had accidentally thrown it away with her lunch. He gave it to Sherry Wesley, who works in a nearby building.
"He came to me with the wad of money and said, 'This probably belongs to someone that you work with, can you return it?' Wesley said.
Workers at a nearby relief
kitchen said the man, who didn't want to be identified, insists on paying for his food.
"He has a very good heart," said Bogue, who gave the man a $100 reward. "If someone else found it, the money would be gone."

Fire prompts goats to stampede
WEST NEWYORK, N.J.
— When fire broke out at a busy poultry market, the goats weren't sticking around.
A drove of goats hightailed it down a busy avenue as firefighters responded to a three-alarm fire on Tuesday afternoon.
Some firefighters teamed up with market workers to run down the goats by fashioning a corral out of garbage cans and a trash bin, said Jeff Welz, North Hudson Regional Fire and Rescue co-director.
The scheme worked. The Humane Society in Newark stepped in after the fire had been brought under control about 90 minutes later to provide temporary shelter for the goats.
Rescuers also saved some of the dozens of live chickens for sale in the market, Welz said.

State asks voters for their favorite movie
The Associated Press
HARRISBURG, Pa. — Pennsylvania election officials are trying to make it fun for the state's voters to learn how to use new high-tech voting machines by asking residents to pick their favorite movie.
In the first week of the effort, visitors to an online election site were able to pick their favorite film made in Pennsylvania on a computer simulation of the machines to be used in their home counties in the May 16 primary.
ON CAMPUS
The choices included: "Girl,
Interrupted" (filmed in Harrisburg),
"Rocky" (Philadelphia),
"Silence of the Lambs" (Pittsburgh) and "Witness" (Lancaster). But like in a real election, write-ins were welcome, too.
Fewer than 5,000 people had voted by Monday, a slow start considering that more than half of the state's 67 counties were required to replace their election systems.

The University of Kansas has four new library book drops. The book drops are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
They are located outside of Anschutz Library, Watson Library, the Art & Architecture Library and the Music & Dance Library.
KU Libraries has plans to open a fifth book drop in the next few weeks near the Spahr Engineering Library.
In order to avoid damage to other library materials, the library has asked patrons not to drop videos, cassettes, CDs, DVDs, unbound journals, maga zines, microfilm, microfiche and other reserve items in the boxes.
These items should be returned to the KU Libraries Service Desk.The two drops located in the front and the back of Watson Library will now be closed.

Athletes get seat in final bill
BY NICHE KELLEY
nkelley@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Outgoing senators left with a bang Wednesday night as they passed the final bill of their term after a two-hour debate.
The bill added a student senator seat for the Student Athlete Advisory Committee, bringing the total number of Student Senate seats up to 91.
This bill first came before Senate two weeks ago, but senators pushed to hold it until after the election. Many didn't agree with SAAC's decision to wait until the Senate ruled before announcing which coalition to back in this year's election.
Arthur Jones, Dallas senior.
gave a speech against the bill because he said he wanted to give SAAC another year to show it deserved to be a part of Senate. He said the "politics" being used by SAAC to get what it wanted was not the way he wanted to see Senate conducted.
Chris Jones, Iowa City senior and member of SAAC, argued in favor of the bill. He said he wanted to give student athletes a voice in Senate issues. He said issues that affected athletes had gone through Senate in the past without the athletes getting to voice their opinions.
One of the issues he used as an example was the debate of whether the University of Kansas should allow its teams to play schools with mascot names
the NCAA deemed disrespectful to Native Americans. Not playing those teams could prevent KU teams from going to national tournaments, he said.
Chris Jones said that he wanted athletes to be involved in more issues than only ones that affected sports. He said giving athletes a seat in Senate would allow them to make a better connection with students.
After deciding on their final bill, the senators last order of business was to elect hold-over senators for next year.
Three senators who have already served but weren't elected this year are selected for this position each year after the general election. The purpose of these seats is to maintain consistency
from one year to the next.
Eight people were nominated. The senators elected were Nolan T. Jones, Pittsburg junior, Bridget Franklin, Topeka senior and Emily Caulfield, Sugar Land, Texas, junior. Jones did not run in this year's elections, Franklin unsuccessfully ran as the vice presidential candidate of Delta Force and Caulfield ran unsuccessfully for Imeite.
Nick Sterner, student body president, gave the new senators some advice during his last speech. He just told them to remember "All you need is love."
The meeting ended with the old senators leaving the floor so new members of Senate could take their seats.

Topeka man charged after Sunday bar fight
A 22-year-old Topeka man was arrested and charged with aggravated assault early Sunday morning after he attempted to use a handgun in a fight outside of Abe and Jake's Landing, according to a Lawrence police report.
Witnesses said the man got into a verbal altercation with a 21-year-old Overland Park man inside the club at Sixth and Vermont streets.The verbal altercation turned physical in the parking lot.
According to the police report, witnesses said they saw the suspect attempt to pull an unidentified type of handgun on the other man. Witnesses said the victim wrestled the gun away from the suspect and pushed him to the ground.
During the scuffle the victim lost an unknown number of gold teeth. According to the police report the suspect and four friends left in a vehicle shortly after the altercation.
Police spotted the vehicle parked in a parking lot adjacent to a nightclub, Last Call, at Seventh and New Hampshire streets. The police asked the driver if there was a weapon in the vehicle and he said no. When police searched the vehicle, however, they recovered a Tarus 9 mm handgun and an unknown number of gold teeth.

Buses
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
"The new buses are all handicapped accessible, they have air condition, heat and are just more environmentally friendly. The buses we have now were made in the 1980s." she said.
The University is also in discussions with the city of Lawrence to help better coordinate the transit system throughout the community.
Right now the University and the city are interviewing companies to complete a joint transit study. There is an opportunity of doing nothing and of completely coordinating the transit systems, Hultine said.
Kaiser took issue with an opinion column in The University Daily Kansan that said the University made the shuttle a free service because federal law required it to do so because the buses were paid for by federal funding.
"Actually it was our choice to make the buses free. We want to encourage people to use the
Park and Ride lot," he said. "We don't make money from people getting on the buses and putting fares in there. Passes make money."
Cliff Gelante, Lawrence's public transit administrator, however, has previously said that laws did require the buses be free, a fact which Hultine has previously confirmed.
Kaiser said the Park-and-Ride program was not trying to put KU on Wheels out of business "because this is not a competition."
"For example, we have faculty and staff who have meetings all over campus that drive their cars on campus to park somewhere else. Now they can leave their cars in the lot and it further reduces congestion on campus," he said.
The University will display one of the new buses at the community transit open house, which is scheduled from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., May 9 in front of the Kansas Union.

Replace
CONTINUED FROM 1A
"We're going to get someone who we are very,very confident with their abilities," Haar said. "We'll get someone who realizes what they're walking into."
One thing Haar said she and the department would consider is hiring two announcers. One to call games with Davis for football, and another to call basketball games with Davis. This would be another change for Jajhawk radio broadcasting. Falkenstien called both football and basketball. Haar said all this would be decided in the coming weeks. Haar said finding Falkenstien's replacement was a hot topic, and she hoped to have a resolution for fans and curious people alike very soon.
One possible candidate is David Lawrence. He is currently the sideline football reporter and the pregame and postgame basketball reporter for the Jawhawk Radio Network in Lawrence. He said he had applied for and spoken to Haar about the job, especially the football position.
"I love the football program and the University." Lawrence said.
He said he didn't know who would get the broadcasting job, but he said he would enjoy a chance to take over where Falkenstein left off.
"Max is very different, but he brings history," Lawrence said. "Over half a century. That's something I can't replace."
Lawrence, however, has football experience, which could be beneficial in game calling. Lawrence played football for Kansas and has coached for years.
Some other names circulating as possible replacements are Chris Piper and Greg Gurley. Piper currently is the basketball analyst for ESPN Regional's TV network. Gurley is the basketball analyst for Channel 6 in Lawrence. Piper and Gurley both played basketball for Kansas. Piper was on the 1988 championship team.
Neither could be reached for comment Wednesday afternoon.

Loan interest rates changing
STUDENT FINANCES
By C.J. MOORE
jmcowe@kansan.com
cjmwe CORRESPONDENT
Curry plans to pay off his loans over the next 10 years. After interest, he is looking at paying more than $35,000.
"I could go out and buy a very nice car with all that money," Curry said.
But Curry may have gotten out at just the right time. As of July 1 this year, the interest rate on Stafford loans, the most common student loan, is increasing to a fixed 6.8 percent. This increase is up from the current rate of 5.3 percent for loans in repayment and up from 3.57 percent during the 2004-05 school year.
The rate increased because of the Deficit Reduction Act that President George Bush signed last month. The act is meant to reduce
government spending. The U.S. government is the lender on Stafford loans, so increasing the interest rate increases revenue for the government. The rate is now fixed at 6.8 percent and will not increase in the future Students have options to avoid the increase, but the deadline to make a change is quickly approaching.
Consolidation is the first option. This allows students to combine all of their loans into one. The consolidation company pays off the lender for all your current loans and you make monthly payments to the consolidator. Under the new act, after July 1, current students will no longer be able to consolidate their Stafford loans. They will be stuck paying the 6.8 percent interest rate.
"We certainly encourage students to look into the consolidation option," said Stephanie Covington, the associate director of student financial aid. "At this point, since the interest rates have been lower and they're getting ready to
go up, it could be a savings to students to go ahead and consolidate those loans."
Curry did just that last August with half of his loans. The interest rate that the consolidation company Curry uses, AES, is 4.5 percent. Curry plans to consolidate the rest of his loans before the July 1 deadline.
Stafford loans are currently the most popular loan for KU students and students nationwide. At the University of Kansas, 14,860 students currently receive a Stafford loan.
Covington suggests another option for students — a Perkins loan, which used to be less appealing when the Stafford loan interest rates were lower. The Perkins loan — lent by schools, not the federal government — has a fixed five percent interest rate. Currently, only 1,582 students receive Perkins loans at the University.
Like the Stafford loan, the Perkins loan is awarded to students based on financial need, which is
determined by the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FASFA)
Shane Pelkey, an information specialist for the Department of Education, said he saw other advantages in choosing the Perkins loan over consolidation — especially as the deadline approaches.
"Students start receiving mailings from multiple consolidation companies and they really have no idea what's going on and companies don't really have the best interest in it for them so they kind of shant it." Pelkey said.
Despite the hole in his checkbook that Curry's student loans might create over the next 10 years, he said it was the right route for him.
"It's a big relief not having to worry about finding a job while you're in school." Curry, who graduated with a journalism degree, said. "Especially when you're in a major that requires all of your time and all of your study."

Chinese president calls for opening of trade
BY ELIZABETH M. GILLESPIE
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
EVERETT, Wash. — Chinese President Hu Jintao called Wednesday for fewer trade barriers and closer ties between his country and the United States, while defending China's heavily criticized policies on trade, currency and energy.
The meaty speech followed a warm welcome at Boeing Co., where Hu sought to soothe tensions over the U.S.-China trade deficit, telling workers his country would need thousands of new airplanes in the coming years.
Speaking to an audience of Washington state business and
political leaders including Microsoft Corp. Chairman Bill Gates, Hu said his company does not seek a big trade surplus with the U.S. He also reaffirmed his government's commitment to crack down on software piracy, which should increase Microsoft's sales in China.
"Strong business ties meet the fundamental interests of our two countries and peoples and will continue to play an important role in stabilizing our relations," Hu said through a translator. He flew to Washington D.C. shortly after the speech.

The comments came just ahead of a summit with President Bush, where the two sides plan to tackle thorny issues including trade.
Elaine Thompson/The Associated Press
Visiting Boeing's widebody jet assembly plant earlier, he called his country's long-running relationship with Boeing an example of the potential of China-U.S. trade.

OUR OPINION
THURSDAY, APRIL 20. 2006
College exit exams have no place
The government is on to us, or so it seems.
Concerns have mounted about the competence of college graduates. That, and a perceived slackening in competitiveness with higher education institutions elsewhere in the world, prompted our government to take action. From this, two predictable outcomes occurred: A committee was formed, and its solution involved more testing.
Last fall, the U.S. Secretary of Education created the Commission for the Future of Higher Education. Its purpose is to analyze and make suggestions on how to improve the nation's colleges and universities.
Charles Miller, the commission's chairman, has publicly advocated the implementation of an exit exam for graduates in order to gauge students' progress. He said this method would provide better information for the American public so people get their money's worth in investing in public education. No doubt there needs to be a high level of transparency in the higher education system. And yes, students being held accountable for what they learn isn't a bad idea.
Nonetheless, inherent flaws immediately become apparent when considering this option. One must take into account the considerable financial and logistical burden created by these exams. Also, believing a single test used to measure institutions across the nation with different goals, standards, fields of study and challenges seems ludicrous. Supporters
Issue: Required aptitude tests for graduating college students
of the measure say it can be done because improvements in testing practices now are able to measure an important set of skills to be acquired in college: Critical thinking, analytic reasoning, problem solving and written communications. But this does not take into account creative thinking, social aptitude and other valued forms of knowledge. Really, can testing ever be improved to the point where it negates any doubt on whether it could successfully quantify knowledge gained?
Stance: This isn't high school. How can one standard exam test the range of different skills and career fields that students study?
We appreciate the goals of the commission,which are to improve the standards of our nation's universities in order to remain globally competitive and accountable to every tax-paying citizen. However, this proposal brings about more questions than answers at this point in time. Instead,the commission needs to identify a meaningful way of reporting student achievement while avoiding the trap of an oversimplified national standard.

COMMENTARY
Put politics aside and unite for cheaper education
I'm sure that it's not surprising to anyone who is reading this, but our humble University is experiencing a substantial decline in the funding that it receives from the state of Kansas. This has been a large reason why tuition here has skyrocketed to the point that last year's "tuition enhancement" was ranked the sixth largest in the nation among top public universities by USA Today. Although plans have been put forth to try to get a handle on the quickly rising cost of an education, there seems to be little hope that the University will remain within the financial reach of most college-bound students in Kansas. What makes this current situation even worse is that many students and their parents don't understand the dynamics that have lead to this sorry state of affairs. Although many students are well-versed in the issues and rhetoric of national politics, the vast majority of students only have a passing knowledge of politics at the state level. This is where the origins of this particular problem lie.
Right now the state of Kansas is facing a huge budget situation. The main reason for this is a recent Kansas Supreme Court decision that mandated that funding for K-12 education be increased by almost $300 million last year. The Court reserved the right to mandate an additional $500 million this year if it feels another increase is needed. For those keeping score, when this whole kerfuffle started, K-12 education received about $2.7 billion from the state. With the increase last year and the one that has been threatened this year, funding for primary and secondary education will rise by more than 25 percent in just two years.
JOSHUA GOETTING
At the same time of this vast increase, the state has experienced stagnate revenues. Even though news came out this week that state revenues are expected to increase by about $286 million in the short term, it doesn't take an economist to realize that this increase is not enough to cover the mandates of the Supreme Court. In addition, the tenor of state politics indicates that a tax increase to make up the difference is nowhere in sight. Just a few years ago, Gov. Kathleen Se-
bellius tried to pass a tax increase that was promptly defeated in the legislature. Disturbingly, this has led to nearly $1 million in contributions to elected officials and the state parties, and includes about $100,000 to candidates for statewide office, most of which has gone to Gov. Sebelius who is currently one of the biggest advocates for this plan, according to an article in the Wichita Eagle. On top of that, there is currently debate in the state senate over a proposed $614 million tax cut that was recently passed by the Kansas House of Representatives.
About the only serious proposed solution for finding the much needed funding has been to allow gambling in Kansas. However good this seems on the surface, enthusiasm for this plan has largely resulted from a huge campaign by gaming interests to bring casinos and slot machines to Kansas. I won't go into the details of this proposal since my colleague, Courtney Farr, did a great job several weeks ago of explaining why this plan would be a bad idea for everyone except casino operators. Suffice it to say, though, that this plan has little chance of solving the state's budget woes.
All of this leaves us at a point where it looks as though portions of the state budget will have to be cut. Primary and secondary education and certain other costs just can't be cut in the current situation, and social services, the other large part of the state budget, probably won't be cut, either, especially after the backlash against Missouri Gov. Matt Blunt for cutting Medicaid and other social services over the past several years. So where will cuts come from?
If you guessed higher education, you're probably right. But it doesn't have to be that way. As students, no matter our different
political leanings, we can agree that we'd like to see a college education remain affordable for as many people as possible. Fortunately, a lot of diverse things can be done to ensure that tuition increases remain reasonable. For one, with state primaries and elections coming up in August and November, students who live in Kansas should volunteer their time to support candidates that are against major funding cuts to state universities. In addition, depending on your political bent, it would be a good idea either to support efforts to pass a state constitutional amendment that would prohibit the Supreme Court from mandating specific funding requirements to the legislature. Or, support efforts to fight tax cuts and increase state revenue and thus decrease the chances that state funding for our University will be drastically cut. The cliché that the squeaky wheel gets the grease is true and since we are almost 30,000 strong, there's no reason why the student body can't get active to keep tuition affordable.

COMMENTARY
Reforming a digital pirate
COURTNEY FARR
opinion@kansan.com
Buying software in a box was an alien concept to me from day one of my digital life. In the early 90s, a respected veterinarian gave me my first pirated copy of Windows 3.1. I traded war games with the son of the man that ran a local church camp. Most people in my small home town hadn't even heard of the Internet vet.
As the Internet exploded, I continued my piracy on a grander scale. PR campaigns and increasingly complex copy protection didn't slow me. The first hiccup in my pirate life came as a letter from lawyers representing the Motion Picture Association of America and my Internet Service Provider. In 2002, my roommate and I had been running a Web site hosting thousands of movies, songs and software, freely trading whatever we could get our hands on. The letter, threatening legal action and the loss of Internet service, justifiably worried us. We killed the server.
With our pipeline to free goodies down and fear that our ISP was scanning our traffic, I went in search of new ways to get programs. Not long after, I discovered open source software. The definition of open source is hard to pin down. It typically refers to free software developed by a community of programmers. They release the source code so that others can modify the program, learn from it or improve it.
To some reading this, the concept may be a decade old topic. Based on recent conversations I've had though, many of my peers seem not to know about the existence of these programs.
I've been a huge fan of open source software since my introduction to the topic through Abiword, a free word processor.
As students, you can benefit from using open source programs. Why pay hundreds, or even thousands, of dollars for programs if you can get free, quality equivalent tools? Adobe Photoshop CS2 runs $600 for a retail copy at Wal-Mart. Microsoft Office can cost $500.
You have probably used open source programs without realizing it. Many campus computers sport Mozilla Firefox. Widely considered more secure than Microsoft's Internet Explorer, a KU Web site states: "Highly recommended that everyone stop using Internet Explorer for web browsing and use Mozilla Firefox instead."
Dustin Brown, software engineer, Networking and Telecommunications Services, said the college has released two open source projects to Sourceforge. The programs, RINGS and ANSR, assist behind-the-scenes telecommunication and security processes at the college.
Help yourself and support open source developers by checking out their software.
I want KU to start recommending more open source tools to students. Our college already recognizes the superiority of Firefox. Do the same for other worthy projects.

Sheldon Battle is taking the relays as just another meet.
"I'm going through the same preparations I would as if this were a meet anywhere else," Battle said.
It's the only home meet of the season, and the time to show what he's been working on all year.
But just another meet?
Battle said he did not want to over think and over prepare just because it was the Kansas Relays. The Jamestown, N.Y., native said he was excited for the Relays and more focused on staying consistent in his technique.
"My goals are to P.R. in every event I compete in," Battle said, about competing for a personal record. "I can't worry about placing."
Battle will compete in the collegiate hammer throw, the discus throw and the shot put invitational.
"Sheldon is a competitor," Kansas track and field coach Stanley Redwine said. "He has the drive to compete at any level."
Throughout his career, Battle has been a big-time performer in the hammer throw, discus and shot put.

The 79th Annual Kansas Relays could go down in history as the meet that breaks the attendance mark.
With celebrity names of the track and field world such as Justin Gatlin, Maurice Greene and Allyson Felix, the GOLDZONE II should be quite an experience.
With strong match ups from the high school level to the professional level, the entertainment factor could bring in a record number of fans, one that the Kansas Relays haven't seen since 1972 when Jim Ryun ran the mile in a time of 3:57.1 in front of a crowd of 32,000 people.
Shawn Crawford, Olympic gold medalist in the 200-meter dash, said on the Memorial Stadium track after some practice runs, that he feeds off of the crowd.
"A great track meet draws a great crowd, and to draw a great crowd, a meet must assure people that they will be entertained," Kansas Relays meet director Tim Weaver said.
"There are only so many household names in track and field. The fact that many of them will be in Memorial Stadium on April 22 speaks to the strength of the Kansas Relays and the reputation that the local fans are getting around the world. Athletes want to go where the crowds are." Weaver said.
"Athletes get hyped with the energy the crowd brings," Crawford said.

Not to be overlooked by Agafonov and Battle is the 2-time Kansas Relay hammer throw champion, Nick Welihozkiy.
Keeping in the field side of the match ups, Battle will compete against former Missouri athlete Christian Cantwell, a World, U.S. and NCAA champion, and Kansas State's senior TJ Staab, a Junior Olympic champion.
On the track will be a 100-meter dash of 111 competitors whose personal bests are within a second of one another.
Finishing the Kansas Relays will be Main Event, featuring Maurice Greene's 4x100-meter dash squad, HSI, against Justin Gatlin's relay squad, Sprint Capitol.

The return of the Gold Zone will mean the return of the Green Zone for area merchants as they cash in on the Kansas Relays.
Last year's Relays brought an extra $4 million into the Lawrence-area economy, according to Bob Sanner of the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce.

Fans who don't yet have a room should call hotels to check for last-minute cancellations.
"Typically during Relays weekend the hotels in Lawrence are sold out," Sanner said. "It's not uncommon for people to be forced into Johnson County once the Lawrence rooms are all booked."
There will be about 6,000 athletes traveling to Lawrence to participate, and last year an additional 25,000 fans were in attendance. Because the Relays take place over an entire weekend, local hotels will see an increase in business.
In 2003 the chamber calculated 1,147 hotel rooms in Lawrence.
The $4 million impact is based on calculations of how much the aver-

This will be the 79th installment of the Relays. Last year drew the second-biggest crowd in the event's history.
earlier this month that his goal was to break the attendance record of 30,000, which was set in 1972 when Lim Rim competed in the Relays.
The University profits less than the community from the event, because of appearance fees paid to bring in top athletes. In addition, the University only takes in money from ticket sales and concessions at Memorial Stadium.
Tickets to the event are $10 for adults and $5 for children. Students will be admitted for free with a KUID.

Showdown ends in grand style
SOFTBALL: 3-1
DEWARMY
Senior pitcher Serena Settlemier connects on a grand slam in the bottom of the fifth inning during the Jayhawks game against the Missouri Tigers Wednesday afternoon at Arrocha Ballpark. Settlemier went 1-for-3 at the plate, with one run, three hits and four RBI.The Jayhawks defeated the Tigers 5-1.

KANSAN SENIOR SPORTSWRITER
After four innings of scoreless softball, Serena Settlemier felt the pressure mounting.
"It's a lot of pressure going out on the mound every inning without having any runs to let you relax a little bit," the senior pitcher said.
Settlemier's fifth-imming grand slam off Missouri pitcher Jen Bruck vaulted Kansas to a 5-1 victory against Missouri Wednesday afternoon at Arrocha Ballpark.
Talk about a stress relief
Sophomore left fielder Betsy Wilson led off the fifth inning, reaching base on an error by the Tigers' Gina Schneider. Wilson moved to second base after a sacrifice bunt by freshman third baseman Val Chapple. Junior first baseman Nicole Washburn was walked and senior second baseman Jessica Moppin reached base on a single to load the bases. Up next was Settiemier, who smashed the 1-1 pitch over the left field wall. It was her fifth grand slam of the season.
"The last five times I've faced this pitcher, she's thrown me low-and-in first pitch and change-up second." Settlemier said of Bruck. "I was sitting change-up all the way."
The Jahawks struck again in the sixth inning when senior right fielder Ashley Goodrich scored on Chapple's single to center field. Goodrich reached base on a single to lead off the inning.
The game was nearly opposite of the meeting in Columbia, Mo.
last week. Against the Tigers last Wednesday, the Jayhawks were one-hit by Bruck and lost 4-0. In the rematch, Missouri was held to one run off two hits against Settlerer.
"It was the stark opposite," Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said. "We played very well, we played with a lot of enthusiasm, played good defense and got good pitching. They were mirror images of each other."
After lighting up junior pitcher Kassie Humphreys a week ago, Missouri hitters struggled against Settlemier, who also went 3-for-3 at the plate. The Tigers managed only two hits all afternoon, a single by Andee Allen to lead off the sixth inning and a home run by Micaela Minner.
SOCCER
"Serena came out and threw a great game today." Bunge said. "She really only threw one bad pitch."
The victory improved Kansas to 24-20 on the season and 5-6 in the Big 12 Conference. Kansas will take on Creighton today in a double-header at Arrocha Ballpark. First pitch is set for 2 p.m.
Notes:
With the victory, Kansas took a 19-15 lead against Missouri in the Border Showdown series standings.
The Jayhawks won their first game against the Tigers in Lawrence since April 19, 2001, exactly five years to the day.
Settlemier continued to improve upon her own school record for home runs in a season. She has a total of 18.

For the second consecutive game, Julie Hanley dove, leapt and slid all over Jayhawk Soccer Complex, making save after save. Unfortunately for Kansas, the freshman goalkeeper could not make up for her team's lack of offensive punch.
The Jayhawks lost to the KCFC Under-15 boys team 3-0 Wednesday, putting the team at 1-2-2 with one game remaining on the spring schedule.
Both teams struggled to gain momentum in the first half, but Hanley made several outstanding saves to hold the score at a 0-0 tie going into halftime. Though Kansas could not find its rhythm, it rarely allowed KCFC breathing room.
From the beginning of the second half, KCFC did not let up, pressuring Kansas into turnovers and remaining on defense for the majority of the second half.

Teamwork pays dividends
Backups see increased playing time help offense

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Ross Kelling arrived at Hoglund Ballpark early to do some extra work before Wednesday's game against Tabor. In the sixth inning, that work paid off.
The junior infielder replaced freshman first baseman Preston Land and stepped to the plate in the bottom of the sixth inning for his only at bat of the day. He rocketed a two-run home run past the scoreboard in right field.
Kelleng's blast helped Kansas on its way to a 14-4 victory.
Kansas coach Ritch Price said the Jayhawks (27-15) should utilize midweek games to boost their chances of earning an NCAA tournament berth. The games also give his bench players more playing time.
"My goal is to get everybody on the roster in," Price said. "Usually the rule in baseball is when your starters get a couple of knocks, you get them out of the ballgame. So the bigger the lead is early, the better opportunity I had to play my entire roster."
Sophomores Erik Morrison and John Allman had the night off. Sophomore Matt Berner stood in for Morrison at third base and sophomore Brock Simpson took over for Allman in left field.
Simpson picked up where he left off the night before, doubling to left field in the Jayhawks' first at bat of the game. Simpson was a double short of hitting for the
cycle on Tuesday night against Missouri State.
All seven of the Jayhawks' runs in the first two innings were charged to Villalovos. Freshman lefty Nick Czyz (2-1) got the win for Kansas in five innings of work. Czyz allowed two runs, neither of which were earned, off four hits.
The pitching change in the top of the second inning set the precedent for the rest of the evening. When Tabor starter Nick Villalovos (0-1) left the game in the top of the second, he left the bases loaded without no outs.
"Two years ago, we would've been susceptible to giving up early leads like that," Price said. Not on Wednesday.
Kansas attacked early. The three hits Villalovos gave up in the first inning were Simpson's double and a pair of home runs

by Land and senior infielder Jared Schweitzer. Land's home run tied him for the most home runs by a KU freshman.
Villalovos gave up four walks in his one inning on the mound. The Tabor (14-21) staff went on to total seven walks.

The first inning was a perfect example of the contributions Kansas has been getting from all of its players, as senior infielder Jared Schweitzer hit a solo home run to left field. Two batters later, freshman first baseman Preston Land launched a two-run home run of his own over the left field fence.
Youth and experience contribute to victories
"I think it's a tribute to our young freshman who are making progress." Price said.
At the plate, the team combined for 14 runs on 14 hits. Seniors Ritchie Price and Milner led the way, going 3-for-5 and 2-for-4, respectively. Land was the best young Jayhawk at the plate, going 2-for-2, including his home run, with one run and three RBI. His replacement, junior Ross Kelling, went 1-for-1 with a two-run home run of his own.
Throughout the stretch of victories against non conference opponents, veterans and newcomers alike have picked up their play to lead Kansas to victory. That didn't change on Wednesday against Tabor.
"Those are the words you wait to hear all day," Kelling said, about Price giving him the opportunity to enter the game. "You get out to an early lead and then you just hope that he calls you off the bench and you get to go do your thing."

Duke lacrosse player's attorney says no chance for plea
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DURHAM, N.C. — An attorney for one of two Duke University lacrosse players charged with raping a stripper at a team party on Wednesday strongly rejected any sort of deal with prosecutors, again proclaiming his client's innocence.
"I don't think there is any chance in hell that there will be a guilty plea," attorney Bill Cotter said. "My client's case is either going to be dismissed by the D.A. or go to trial."
Cotter represents Collin
Finnerty, who along with
fellow sophomore Reade Selig-
mann was indicted Monday on charges of first-degree rape, sexual offense and kidnapping. Each posted $400,000 bond after their pre-dawn arrests early Tuesday, and both were released within hours.
School officials have declined to say whether it plans to discipline either of the players, although they have noted the university has historically suspended students charged with a felony.
Cotter said Wednesday that Finnerty, of Garden City, N.Y., had left Durham, although he wouldn't say where he went. Attorney Kirk Obsborn, representing Seligmann, of Essex Fells, N.J., declined to say whether his client had been suspended.

"Muy client's case is either going to be dismissed by the D.A. or go to trial."

Duke lacrosse player's attorney
District Attorney Mike Ni-
Seligmann and his father spent much of Wednesday working from the law office of attorney Robert Ekstrand, who represents dozens of uncharged lacrosse players.
fong, who has not granted interviews in weeks and said Tuesday he planned to make no comments about the case outside the courtroom, has said he still hoped to link a third man to the alleged attack.
He did not return calls Wednesday seeking comment about that effort, or about searches by Durham police Tuesday night of Seligmann's and Finnerty's dorm rooms.
Warrants authorizing the searches had not been returned to the court clerk's or magistrate's office by Wednesday evening.
"I can imagine they never investigate, but I think it's
unusual to be executing search warrants after they've indicted," Cotter said.
Defense attorneys have said they have time-stamped photos from the party, bank records, cell phone calls and a taxi driver's statement to support Seligmann's claim of innocence.
A person close to the case told The Associated Press on Wednesday that the cell phone records show Seligmann called for a taxi at 12:14 a.m., and that according to sworn testimony he left in the taxi at 12:19 a.m.
The bank records show he stopped at an ATM five minutes later, the person said.

On the mound, freshman lefty Nick Czyz put together his second productive outing in a row. Czyz pitched five innings and allowed just two unearned runs on four scattered hits and two walks. Czyz struck out five batters.
In relief, a few of Kansas' other inexperienced pitchers kept Tabor hitters at bay. Freshman left-hander Ryan Anthony, sophomore right-hander Matt Lane and junior right-hander Ryotaro Hayakawa allowed just two runs in four innings on six hits and one walk.
The Jayhawks will need to continue to work together if they want an NCAA tournament bid.
"We're just trying to get everybody in there, get some experience, some at-bats," Milner said. "It's a good midweek game before K-State."
If Kansas gets an NCAA Regional bid this season, one key reason will be the Jayhawks' ability to win the games on its schedule that, on paper, they should win.
"That's what we need down the stretch," senior outfielder Gus Milner said. "We need everybody clicking on all cylinders, especially if we're trying to do something special toward the end of the year."
Early nonconference losses
have hurt the Jayhawks before. In 2005, Kansas lost games to Northern Colorado and Austin Peay. Turning those two losses into victories would have given the 2005 Jayhawks 38 victories and a much more attractive NCAA Regional résumé.
This season, the Jayhawks got an early wake-up call as to how easily teams could sneak up on opponents that didn't come ready to play each time they took the field. In the final game of the Hawaii-Hilo series on Feb. 4, the Jayhawks fell to the Vulcans, 8-6. Kansas hasn't overlooked a non-conference opponent since.
"Those games, when you lose to a team that's under .500 or has a low RPI, those are devastating to your program when you play in a major conference like we do," Kansas coach Ritch Price said.
Randall Sanders/KANSAN
Three weeks later, Kansas faced Belmont and Lipscomb in the Music City Challenge and, despite being the team's fourth road trip in as many weeks, the Jayhawks came out on top in both games.
The Jayhawks' first four games of March were a three-game set against Western Illinois, and a midweek meeting with Baker. Kansas won all four games, outscoring the two teams 53-9.

K-State signs new guard
— Edited by Timon Veach
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Young, a 6-foot-2 scorer from Orlando, Fla., becomes the second player to sign with Huggins after 7-foot-3 center Jason Bennett pledged his services last week
MANHATTAN — Junior college guard Blake Young, one of the top remaining unsigned players in the nation, signed a national letter of intent Wednesday to play for Kansas State and new coach B胡uggins.
"Obviously, we are delighted
with the audition of Blake to our team," Huggins said in a news release. "I think he will give us that added dimension of being able to push the ball up the floor and create easy baskets for us. I also think he can be a tremendous de-

fender in the aggressive style we want to play.
Young was third nationally among junior college players in scoring last year, averaging more than 23 points per game and leading Daytona Beach (Fla.) Community College to a 25-5 record.
Several recruiting services listed him among the top 10 junior college players in the country.
Huggins took over at Kansas State last month after turning the Cincinnati Bearcats into a national power during 16 sometimes-stormy years.
Brad Underwood Daytona Beach coach
He had maintained contact with Bennett, another Florida product and the No. 5-ranked center in the nation according to Rivals.com, after Cincinnati refused to extend Huggins' four-year contract rollover following his arrest and conviction for drunken driving in 2004.
"Blake is a very versatile guard who has the ability to play both guard spots," said Daytona Beach coach Brad Underwood, who played at Kansas State from 1984-86. "He is what I describe as freakishly athletic. He is very difficult to guard, which trans-
That paid off when Bennett
signed a national letter of intent on April 12, the first day of the spring signing period.
As for Young, Huggins joined the fray a few weeks ago and beat out the University of Washington, Creighton and St. John's, schools that had
been recruiting him for months.
"Blake's athleticism allows him to play almost anywhere in the country," Underwood said. "He really saw the need at Kansas State for a guard that could really score the ball. Plus, he wanted the opportunity to play for coach Huggins."
The Wildcats finished 15-13 last year but lose only one starter and no backups who contributed significantly. Only little-used guard Curtis Allen has defected since Huggins' arrival.
Several media outlets have reported this week that Kenny Williams, a 6-foot-8 junior college forward who signed with Kansas State in the fall, will not have enough credits to qualify for a Division I scholarship.

"We needed to do a better job of playing quicker and more consistently," said Kansas coach Mark Francis.
The KCFC players held a noticeable size advantage against Kansas. On several occasions, the smaller Kansas players were knocked to the ground by their more powerful opponents.
"It was frustrating losing, but these guys are just so much stronger and faster and more physical," junior Holly Gault said. "We're not going to see any NCAA teams that are like them."
Despite the loss, the Jayhawks looked at the positive side of Wednesday's game.
"The progress the team has made is just incredible," said
"The progress this team has made is just incredible. The defenders are feeling more comfortable and have a better understanding of how each other play."

Greinke, who was 5-17 last season in 33 starts, left spring training suddenly on Feb. 25 and returned to his Orlando, Fla., home. He reported to Surprise on Tuesday and worked out. When he will return to the Royals is not yet certain.

KANSAS RELAYS
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 3C
Nelson
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1C
Williams said the two would come to practice almost every afternoon and sit in the bleachers to watch. After about 30 minutes of practice, Williams said, he and the players would look up and see one leaning left and the other leaning right. Williams joked that they liked to take their afternoon naps in the Fieldhouse.
"When people mention Bob Nelson's name, it brings a smile to my face." Williams said.
Williams said he first met Nelson on his first day at the University. After the press conference introducing him as the Kansas basketball coach in July of 1988 at the Holidome, Williams said Nelson marched up to him and said, "They call me the Old Jayhawker." From then on, they became friends.
With Williams, Nelson continued his pre-game tradition from Larry Brown's coaching tenure at the University. Before each game, he waited at the tunnel where all of the players ran out and shook hands with the coach for good luck.
Nelson said while Williams was at the University he got free tickets to all of the away games. The athletes got two free tickets per player to each game, and Williams made sure Nelson and Eleanor got two of them each time.
Among the items that Bob Nelson collects are various KU buttons from decades past and present. Nelson's basement is essentially a shrine to KU athletics.
Even since he moved to Chapel Hill to coach at North Carolina, Williams still sends Nelson Christmas cards. Nelson keeps them in a binder with protective plastic slip pages. Also included are his correspondence from all of the former and current KU coaches and assistant coaches, including former coach Larry Brown, now coaching the New York Knicks, and former assistant coach Matt Doherty. One of Williams' cards had a team photo of all of his UNC players, autographed by each one.

Nelson was born in 1922 in Sedan, but he and his family moved all over the state. After his father died, he and his mother moved to Ohio, for three years. His mother then moved to Lawrence for Nelson's last year of high school.
Anna Faltermieier/KANSAN
After he graduated, Nelson attended Kansas and majored in journalism. He also covered sports for The University Daily Kansan, and he's been following KU sports ever since.
shoes to the men in India, sailed through the Suez Canal and eventually ended up in Boston. There, the Navy said he had to sign a four-year contract for the draft or join the Merchant Marines. He chose the latter, a commercial shipping group that used their freighters to ship U.S. Armed Forces supplies during the war. He travelled to Belgium and other European countries as well.
Nelson left the Merchant Marines after the war and returned to the University.
Nelson worked for the Navy, but was not enlisted, when World War II started, and he did work shipping and supplying United States troops around the world after boarding a boat in San Francisco. He brought
He finished his degree in 1953 and moved to Topeka to pursue a career as a realtor. In 1959, he moved back to Lawrence for good. He took a job as a KU Continuing Education program coordinator, where he worked for 32 years until his retirement in 1991.
In 1964, he met his wife Eleanor Womack. She had moved to Lawrence with her three kids just one year earlier to escape a bad marriage, and she Nelson met through their mutual love of KU sports. Eleanor worked at the University and was also an office manager for the Center for Research on Learning. She retired in 1996.
"You can't help but be a Jayhawk fan if you live in Lawrence," she said.
He and Eleanor dated for 24 years because she "didn't want to get caught between a husband and kids," but they went to all of the games together from the time they met. In 1991, they married in Reno, near her kids, so that she could be named on his KU pension plan when he retired that year.
Nearly 300 people showed up at their reception in Lawrence at the Holidome.
"Our wedding was announced in the Chuck Woodling sports column before anywhere else," Eleanor ioked.
Spotter is an unpaid position. He spotted for such famous announcers as Jerry Bailey, Gary Bender, and Tom Hedgrick. He's worked for every radio announcer at the University except Bob Davis.
Nelson and Eleanor have traveled all over the United States to see the Jayhawks play. Nelson has been to every U.S. state except Maine and Vermont. He's been to Big 8 and Big 12 tournaments, the 50th annual National Championship in Kansas City in 1988, where the Jayhawks won the national title, the Orange Bowl, the Liberty Bowl, the Fiesta Bowl, the Sun Bowl and the Aloha Bowl. He's been to all of the football bowl games except the last few. He didn't make it to Fort Worth last December, he said.
He worked as a spotter for KU football and basketball, the Kansas City Chiefs, and even in Oklahoma. He sat in his seat and help out the announcer in the booth with things that could only be seen from close up.
Nelson even went to the first Super Bowl to watch the Kansas City Chiefs play the Green Bay Packers in Los Angeles in 1967. He said the Chiefs and TWA put a charter together for $125, where he got airfare, hotel, a ticket to the game and plenty of souvenirs.
When Phog Allen coached the 1952 USA Olympic basketball team, it had seven players from the University. Allen sent Nelson a postcard from the games, and now it's on Nelson's mantle on his basement fireplace. His entire basement is a mini-museum of autographed pictures and memorabilia from KU sports since 1939. Eleanor even had a coffee table especially made to house some of his most prized items, like his first ever season tickets in 1941, which she said cost $16 for the entire season.
"He's a pack rat," Eleanor said.
She said in 1993, their basement flooded and many of his artifacts were destroyed, but he still has plenty left. He even has doubles of a lot of things like programs, autographed books, and other items. Eleanor said she's been selling the doubles on the Internet to thin out the collection.
He's known all of the coaches from Phog Alon On: Dick Harp, Larry Brown, Roy Williams and Bill Self.
In fact, he knew Self long before he came to coach at Kansas. He first met Self when he came to Kansas as a graduate assistant for then-coach Larry Brown. Self came in the 1985-86 season after he'd played for Oklahoma State.
Nelson was happy to see Self come back to Kansas as a coach, he said.
Eleanor said one day Self invited her and Nelson to the Fieldhouse to see the improvements made this year. While they were there, Self asked where they were sitting after the Williams Fund redistributed the seats this year. They used to sit close to the court, but got moved to the third level. Eleanor said the new seats made it harder for Nelson to make it to games because he can't climb the stairs as easily.
When Self found out, he called the Williams Fund and shortly after, the Williams Fund
"They should have grandfathered in a lot of the old guys," Eleanor said.
called the Nelson and said they had their old seats back.
While they were there, construction workers told them they couldn't be in the Fieldhouse without hard hats, but according to Eleanor, Self said, "These two damn people built the Fieldhouse in the first place!"
"Certainly they have been generous with giving, but they have given far more than their money in that they have given their love, support and time," Self said.
Self said he looked forward to seeing Nelson each week at his radio show.
"Having fans like Nelly make
you want to work that much harder," Self said. "There is more of a sense of pride when he is around. He represents all the good things that fans should represent. He is loyal and supports you and loves you regardless of the scoreboard."
In 1998, Nelson had a stroke that has since prevented him from having a perfect attendance record at the games. He still attends most games, and he remembers everything impeccably but has a harder time getting around and speaking his mind.
Because of the impression Nelson has made on all of the
former KU athletes and coaches he frequently gets invited to team reunions. He went to the 30-year reunion for the 1974 Final Four team in 2004. He also received recognition for his loyalty to the University in 1992, when the KU Alumni Association gave him the Mildred Clofelter award for his many contributions to the University, an honor only given to one person per year.
In 2000, a group of sportswriters who covered KU sports named him the "fan of the millennium," Eleanor said.

Although he may not like the attention, Battle has accepted the role of being the face of the Kansas track and field team this season.
Sheldon Battle Senior thrower
He has worked hard as a senior and can challenge for the title in any event at nationals this summer.
After his days are over at Kansas, Battle said he would look to compete professionally.
"We want to showcase the Kansas track and field team's talent by being productive and competing hard," Battle said.
For now though, the focus is on the Kansas Relays.

Wheelchair athlete wins suit to race with able-bodied
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BALTIMORE — A high school track athlete who uses a wheelchair will be allowed to race alongside her teammates for the rest of the school year under a federal judge's order.
Tatiyana McFadden, 16, had been allowed to practice with the Atholton High School track team in Columbia, but the school system required her to compete in separate wheelchair events.
"It was lonely and embarrassing, and I just didn't like it," McFadden said. "Other competitors would come up to me and they would say, 'Good race,' but it wasn't really a good race because I was running by myself."
The Maryland Disability Law Center filed the federal suit on McFadden's behalf, citing the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, which prohibits exclusion of persons with disabilities from programs and activities that receive federal funds.
On Monday, U.S. District Judge Andre Davis granted the request for a preliminary injunction against the school system.
McFadden, who won two medals at the 2004 Paralympics in Athens, said Monday night that she was looking forward to competing in Wednesday's meet.
"This is important to me because I wanted to get the same thrill and the same experience as all the other high school students," she said. "There's no competition by myself."
The Maryland Disability Law Center filed the federal suit on McFadden's behalf, citing the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, which prohibits exclusion of persons with disabilities from programs and activities that receive federal funds.
Mark Blom, an attorney for the Howard County school system, said last month when the suit was filed that the system had worked with McFadden to allow her to be a part of the team and to incorporate wheelchair events into track competitions, but it is against merging the two types of events.
The judge disagreed.
)
"She's not suing for blue ribbons, gold ribbons or money — she just wants to be out there when everyone else is out there." Davis said.
McFadden was born with spina bifida. Her mother, Deborah McFadden, called the ruling a landmark.
"The Rehabilitation Act has been around for 33 years," she said. "Maybe we've succeeded in a classroom setting, but there's more to a person's life."

SPEAK The Wonder Years: lifelong influence
EDITOR'S NOTE
Like any girl of my generation, I know someone who suffered
from an eating disorder. In high school, I watched with sadness as two classmates struggled with disorders.It's a helpless feeling, knowing someone is killing herself and there is not a thing you can do.
PENG
Considering how common and how devastating eating disorders have become, especially for
girls my age, I feel incredibly blessed that none of my close
friends ever struggled with one. Instead of eating too little, my friends preferred to eat themselves into oblivion (one has even been deemed the "patron saint of gluttony"). So my friends and I dealt with a different kind of personal choice. But
knew people that suffered from anorexia or bulimia could classify their disease as a choice rather than an alliment. With a little help, the girls I knew from high school are a healthy weight and now want to join in on the Olive Garden breadstick-eating contests my friends and I hold. Which could be a sign of a different kind of eating disorder altogether, but thanks to Liz's article I know where we can all get help.

the girls in Liz Nartowicz's article (p.10) on pro-eating disorder Web sites shocked me. I never

TIME FOR TEA
BITE
Brew up good health with this classic beverage
by Carrie Hillard
Clove Tea
KIT LEFFLER
Lara Kindle had her first taste of tea one lazy Saturday morning with her mother and sister. The Basehor senior was only 8 at the time, but the soothing taste made her a tea drinker for life.
"Tea is a comfort drink for me," Kindle says. "It always quenches my thirst and warms me up on a cold day or cools me down in the summer."
The ancient beverage was discovered in 2737 B.C. by Chinese Emperor Shen-Nung. Legend says that tea leaves accidently blew into the emperor's pot of boiling water, and the world has been enjoying tea ever since. Tea is the most commonly consumed beverage behind water, according to the American Tea Institute. In 2005, Americans consumed more than 50 billion servings of tea, more than 2.25 billion gallons.
What is tea?
To really be considered tea, the leaves must come from the tropical plant Camellia sinensis, says Bianca Storlazzi, tea buyer at the Community Mercantile, 901 Iowa St. Differences among the types of tea result from the varying degrees of processing and the level of oxidization. The tea leaves undergo natural chemical reactions, which result in taste and color changes.
Four thousand varieties of tea exist today, but the three most common kinds are black, green and oolong.
Black tea is the most commonly consumed, accounting for 87 percent of all tea consumption, according to the American Tea Institute. Storlazzi explains that oxidization and fermentation of the leaves darkens the tea, and in some cases the leaves are
hung like tobacco. Chai tea, popular in coffee shops, is a type of black tea mixed with spices. The tea originated in India and usually is served sweet with milk and honey, Storlazzi says.
Green tea undergoes minimal processing and is not oxidized. As a result, its natural green color is preserved and it most closely
The small remaining amount of tea consumption belongs to oolong
resembles the original green leaf. It accounts for 12.5 percent of all tea consumption and is supposed to be the healthiest of teas. Jen Bergman, Minneapolis Junior, drinks iced green tea to relax. "There's something about sipping iced tea on the back porch in the summer that really puts me at rest," she says.
TEA AND CAFFEINE
Although caffeine is a natural component of tea, a serving of tea usually contains less than half the caffeine of coffee.
Type of Beverage Caffeine (mg/cup)
Black Tea 25-110
Green Tea 10-30
Oolong Tea 15-55
White Tea -13
Coffee 100-150
Soda 25-70

tea, which is between black and green in strength and color. This tea is oxidized for two to three hours and is only partially fermented which preserves more of its healthy properties.
White tea, which is growing in popularity, is the least-processed type of tea. Its leaves
are picked and harvested before they fully open, and yield a lighter-colored brew. Although there hasn't been much research on white tea, Storlazzi says, it is supposedly as healthy as green tea, if not more. A popular white tea right now is called dragon bowl, she says. When water is poured on top of the te leaves, a flower rises up on to the top of the glass,
she says.
Differences in processing also influence cost. Storlazzi buys tea by the ounce for the Merc. It's sold by the leaf — each of which yields three to four cups. Depending on where the tea leaves were grown and whether they are organic, prices range from $.90 to $6 per ounce. Storlazzi tries to buy fair trade as much as possible because the people picking the leaves are paid a fair wage.
A healthy treat
New findings from the scientific community lend credibility to tea's healthy properties. Tea is particularly rich in catechins, a type of flavonoid that is believed to have antioxidant properties, says Jeffrey Blumberg, director of the Antioxidants Research Laboratory at Tufts University. The antioxidants in tea work to counteract free radicals in the body, agents which scientists believe are damaging to long-term health.
Blumberg says teas have been associated with a reduced risk of coronary heart disease, some forms of cancer, osteoporosis and may even increase metabolism. One study showed that smokers who drank four cups of
decaffeinated green tea daily for four months had a significant decrease in signs of damage to the body's cells and DNA.
Few studies have compared one type of tea against another, but there is a great deal of overlap, Blumberg says. For example, he says, research has found cardiovascular benefits in both black and green teas.
Tea is a "no-brainer," Blumberg says. It has zero calories, is rich in catechins and evidence suggests it reduces the risk for major chronic diseases. However, the effects of tea are dose-related, he says.
"Drinking three cups daily provides more catechins and greater health benefits than drinking one cup daily."
Bergman believes research on the healthful properties of tea has increased its popularity. "I think it's becoming a more healthful trend, which makes it popular with students. It doesn't have all the additives that coffee does," she savs.
Kindle recognizes tea as a drink that can stand the test of time.
"Tea is a drink that has been around for centuries," Kindle says." it isn't going anywhere."

You take a bite of your cottage cheese only to discover someone forgot to throw out the container before the expiration date. Fight the urge to spit it into your napkin or on your plate.Instead, move the food forward using your tongue, push the offending bite back onto your fork and place it on the side of your plate,the experts at Manners International say. Food should go out your mouth the same way it went in: on a fork.Sure,it's still a little gross,but it's more subtle and probably won't make your friends gag.

Why not whip up a batch of scrambled eggs for an afterbar snack? Not only do you save money but you're saving your body from carbohydrates. Whether you add milk or cheese, eggs will be a hit with you and your after-hours guests. Just remember to turn the stove off.

Party on, driver
From falling down to throwing up, party bus drivers see it all
CHARTER
BLUE BIRD
491
It's 10 p.m. — still early for a Saturday night — and a Polo-clad kid swaggers down the sidewalk, barely able to place one foot in front of the other. Students waiting in line for the party laugh as he stumbles, almost falling into a parked car.
"He's fine," they assure each other. "Hey, kid. Are you okay? Yeah, he's fine."
The kid makes his way to the empty bus waiting outside. Struggling with each step, he wavers up the two stairs and collapses into a seat. The driver casually passes back a black plastic trashcan, and the kid buries his head in it. It's nothing new for the driver. After all, she deals with this almost every night.
Driving a party bus isn't the most glamorous job. It's not very rewarding either, says Rich, Lawrence resident. He drives charter routes at night for the Lawrence Bus Company, 837 Pennsylvania St., which also operates Safe Ride and KU On Wheels bus routes. Rich chauffeurs drunks to and from various bars or parties into the wee hours of the morning. While carting inebriated groups, Rich deals with everything from guys throwing punches at him to girls' toga costumes falling off.
KIT LEFFLER
"I worry most about getting puked on," he says. "I've been lucky, but everyone else has had someone throw up on the bus or on them."
Someone gets sick on the bus just about every ride, Debbie Kelley, manager of Lawrence Bus Company, says. Cleaning up a party bus is not a pretty sight, and gets pretty nasty, she says. Workers literally take a hose and Clorox bleach to flush the whole bus out.
If carting around a bunch of wasted college kids doesn't sound like a good time, try putting up with a busload of drunken middle-aged men. Matt Mitchell, Leavenworth
junior, drives a privately-owned bus for the bus owner and his friends each Wednesday. An older group of men gets rowdy, Mitchell says.
"It's funny how you think there'd be an age gap in maturity but after a couple of drinks, they're pretty insane," he says. "They're pirates when it comes to drinking."
Mitchell stays sober as he schleps the partiers to different bars, casinos and strip clubs. He drives them around while they drink themselves stupid, he says.
"After about midnight, they're too drunk to get back on the bus," he says. "Those
two steps seem to be the hardest climb ever. I have to hang out for 30 minutes when it should just take them five minutes."
Driving around a huge crowd of party-goers can be distracting, says Rich, the charter bus driver. Buses can fill up so much that people are crammed, with hardly any room to move. Most of the time the drunks are overly friendly, Rich says. They try to shake hands, pat him on the back and even offer him drinks.
of roughhousing.A mix is good."
"If it's a bus of all girls, it's loud," Rich says. "If it's a bad bus full of buys, it's just Lots
"We're all going to be drinking heavily, and I don't want anybody driving," Noulles says. "It's a lot easier to get that many people to a game on a bus than trying to get cars organized."
Sarah Noulles, Tulsa, Okla., senior, is organizing a party bus for 45 of her friends to go to a Royals game in May. A party bus is the best way to coordinate that many drunk people, she says.
Kelley, with Lawrence Bus Company, says she'd rather have her drivers be the ones driving around inebriated
people, because they're used to having a lot of people on the bus all the time.
"We're doing the kids a service because they don't have to worry about driving, and we're doing the community a service because they're not out on the road," she says.
Although party bus drivers deal with people getting sick, into fights and being downright annoying, they still rely on the income.
"Putting up with all I put up with, as long as I can pay the bills, is worth it," Mitchell says.

Please send your questions to bitch@kansan.com. Brian Bratichak
HOW COME WHEN I ASK A GIRL OUT AND SHE SAYS "YES," SHE CALLS ME LATER WITH A LAME EXCUSE OR TELLS ME SHE HAS A BOYFRIEND? DANE, SOPHOMORE
Jessica: I find this very offensive, Dane. I've had a multitude of complaints from close friends about girls doing this, and, even worse, girls who go on dates and have full-fledged relationships and fall to mention they're engaged. I think it comes down to dissatisfaction and/or uncertainty with the current relationship. When some people aren't having their needs met or aren't sure they're with the right person, they look elsewhere. I also think many people like to know they still "have it" or that they're making the "right" decision with their relationship/engagement. Whatever the case may be, I say wait for a girl to ask you out or get to know a girl before asking her out.
Brian: I'm sorry to tell you this, Dane, but it's because girls are heartless. It's that simple. That's why men become deeply involved in the great relationships they find; they know those outstanding girls are few and far between. The best way to shield yourself from these situations is to not jump right in. Giving your phone number to a girl is cliche. Get her phone number. Then the ball's in your court. Don't call her, but send her a text just telling her when and where she should meet you. If you find her there, pursue her. If not, continue sending her vicious text messages so you can rack up tons of charges to her cell phone.
I WANT TO HAVE SEX IN THE LIBRARY, BUT MY GIRLFRIEND IS REALLY LOUD, AND I DON'T THINK I COULD FINISH BEFORE WEWOULD GET CAUGHT. WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU GET CAUGHT ANYWAY? IS THAT CONSIDERED ACADEMIC MISCONDUCT? ANY SUGGESTIONS?
DWAYNE, FRESHMAN
Brian: Try browsing the back stacks of Watson. I've been there before (for a book, I swain) and there's rarely a soul in the area. Screamy McSreamerson could scream her lungs out and nary a person would hear. If not, I recommend bringing something to keep over or in her mouth; think socks, t-shirt, fist or just grab a book off the shelf and shove it in her mouth. If you're worried about getting caught, don't bring identification and as soon as you see someone else, run for the hills. Just don't forget to leave the library stuffed in your girl's mouth; it's evidence.
Jessica: I think you speak for all of us, so why don't you serve as the guinea pig on this one? I doubt you'll get caught if you find some stacks on the top floors (preferably one where Brian isn't) and give (don't shove) your girlfriend something to bite on so that she doesn't scream too loudly, perhaps your shoulder or fingers (not socks, a t-shirt, fist or a book). Academic misconduct? Hardly! If you should get hurt, just explain that sex makes your brain function more efficiently. Good luck. Let us know how it works out!
IS IT ALL RIGHT TO HAVE THREE BOYFRIENDS AT A TIME?
— LESLIE, JUNIOR
**Brian:** If I were dating someone and found out she had two other boyfriends, I'd be furious if you're gonna have all those boyfriends, keep them up to date on what's going on so they don't feel neglected. But if you really want to make things interesting just create a dating show like *Flavor of love* on VH1. Give the guys nicknames and wear something on your
neck that says a lot about you. For your suggest either a huge condom or just a sign that says, I have STDs. Then at least everyone will know what or whom) they are getting into.
Jessica: It's not alright.
However it's ok to be
casually dating more than
one person, as long as it
absolutely clear you re
seeing other people. But
sepiously, I gotta know how
this works. How do you keep
them all straight? How do
you keep them from finding
out about each other? Does
this mean you get three
times as much of everything
Kisses, luvn, wooing??
Who's your favorite? How do
you manage date nights? I'm
taking hotel.
OUT
With The Sounds
J: You're touring now to promote your new album, Dying to Say This to You. What are you dying to say?
N:That title actually comes from lyrics from the song "Ego." We'd been on the road touring for two and a half years and were just dying to write songs for the fans.
he Sounds like Lawrence so much they're coming back for a second visit, "I think it's something in the water," drummer Fredrik Nilsson says. From Helsingborg, Sweden,
J: The band is known for putting on an energetic show. In past interviews, you've mentioned that you prefer performing live to the studio. Does that still hold true?
N: Definitely. You get an immediate response from an audience if you play live. Everything is in real time. You don't just play the drums, and then a couple hours later someone comes in and plays the guitar. Everyone in the band is in one spot. It's the full package.
J: Does Sweden have baseball?
N: No. We have something like T-ball we play in school, but as far as I know, we don't have any leagues.
the pop-punk band returns this Wednesday to promote their second album, *Dying to Say This to You*, after previous stints touring with Foo Fighters and The Strokes. While talking to Nilsson, I dreamily imagined him as a tall, lanky blonde Swede sitting on sleek likea furniture spooning meatballs drizzled in lingonberry sauce into his mouth between sentences. Well, he's tall and lanky, but I learn that this Swede is a brunette and his Scandinavian food of choice is licorice — the saltier the better. Nilsson taught me a thing or two about the Swedes, while I enlightened him on American 4/20 culture.
J: Does Sweden have baseball?
Jayplay: So Fredrik, where are you now? Nilsson: Right now, we're in Boston. Our venue is across from Fenway Park. I think a game is starting soon; there's a lot of commotion.
J: What do you think Americans could learn from Swedes?
N:Well, we don't have as many homicides or murders as in America. It's much harder to get weapons in Sweden. There are a lot of tall blonde people, too, but we're not all blonde. People are pretty environmentally-conscious. So yeah, there's definitely some truth to that.
J: To me, Sweden seems like a utopia with its lack of crime, statuesque blondes, and environmentally-conscious society. Is there any truth to that?
N: I don't know that they should learn anything.
We have a way of thinking that is very un-American. In America, you're supposed to have it all. Nothing is impossible. Everyone has the potential to be the president. In Sweden, we
CERTIFICATE OF ORIGIN
think of each other as being all the same. If you want to be on top, you can't think like a Swede anymore. Somewhere between those two ways of thinking would be best. A lot of Americans don't have passports, so they don't necessarily know about the rest of the world. When you take a vacation, you go to California or Florida and stay within your borders. Most Americans can only compare America with America, and I think it's useful to travel and experience different cultures.
J: Do you bring anything from home on tour with you?
N:We always bring this one candy — it's a black salty licorice. It's not at all like your red licorice.I brought about a pound of it with us,but it only lasted a few weeks.
J: Are there any American products that you lug back?
N: I always try to bring some Airborne with us to bring back home. It's that stuff that helps with the immune system. It really helps. I travel with so much stuff, so I don't really bother buying much. We're in America a lot anyway, so it's never too long before we're back. I do wish we had Gatorade. If all those sporty guys and gals are drinking it, it has to be good for something.
J:This interview is going to be printed next Thursday, which is 4/20. Is it celebrated in Sweden?
N: I've heard about that, but I don't know anything about it. We don't have that in Sweden.
What is it exactly?
J;it's basically a holiday for marijuana smokers.
N: Oh, really? Anything to do with drugs is frowned upon in Sweden. It's a big no-no.

Brian: Try browsing the back stacks of Watson. I've been there before (for a book, I swear) and there's rarely a soul in the area. Screamy McScreamerson could scream her lungs out and nary a person would hear. If not, I recommend bringing something to keep over or in her mouth; think socks, t-shirt, fist or just grab a book off the shelf and shove it in her mouth. If you're worried about getting caught, don't bring identification and as soon as you see someone else, run for the hills. Just don't forget to leave the library book stuffed in your girl's mouth; it's evidence.
Jessica: I think you speak for all of us, so why don't you serve as the guinea pig on this one? I doubt you'll get caught if you find some stacks on the top floors (preferably one where Brian isn't) and give (don't shove) your girlfriend something to bite on so that she doesn't scream too loudly, perhaps your shoulder or fingers (not socks, a t-shirt, fist or a book). Academic misconduct? Hardly! If you should get caught, just explain that sex makes your brain function more efficiently. Good luck. Let us know how it works out!
IS IT ALL RIGHT TO HAVE THREE BOYFRIENDS AT A TIME?

**Brian:** If I were dating someone and found out she had two other boyfriends I'd be furious if you gonna have all those boyfriends, keep them up to date on what's going on so they don't feel neglected. But if you really want to make things interesting just create a dating show like *Frauen of Love* on VH1. Gave the guys nicknames and wear something on your
neck that says a lot about you. For you I suggest either a huge condom, or just a sign that says "I have STDs." Then at least everyone will know what or whom) they are getting
Jessica's isn't alright.
However, it's ok to be
easily dating more than
one person, as long as
absolutely clear you're
seeing other people. But
semiously I don't know how
this works. How do you keep
them all straight? How do
you keep them from finding
out about each other? Does
this mean you get three
times as much of everything
(kisses, lovin', wooing)?
Whose your favorite? How do
you manage date-night? I'm
taking notes!

N: That title actually comes from lyrics from the song "Ego." We'd been on the road touring for two and a half years and were just dying to write songs for the fans.
J:You're touring now to promote your new album, Dying to Say This to You. What are you dying to say?
he Sounds like Lawrence so much they're coming back for a second visit."I think it's something in the water," drummer Fredrik Nilsson says.From Helsingborg, Sweden.
J: The band is known for putting on an energetic show. In past interviews, you've mentioned that you prefer performing live to the studio. Does that still hold true?
N: Definitely. You get an immediate response from an audience if you play live. Everything is in real time. You don't just play the drums, and then a couple hours later someone comes in and plays the guitar. Everyone in the band is in one spot. It's the full package.
3. Does Sweater have blue hair?
N: No. We have something like T-ball we play in school, but as far as I know, we don't have any leagues.
the pop-punk band returns this Wednesday to promote their second album, *Dying to Say This to You*, after previous stints touring with Foo Fighters and The Strokes. While talking to Nilsson, I dreamily imagined him as a tall, lanky blonde Swede sitting on sleek like furniture spooning meatballs drizzled in lingonberry sauce into his mouth between sentences. Well, he's tall and lanky, but I learn that this Swede is a brunette and his Scandinavian food of choice is licorice — the saltier the better. Nilsson taught me a thing or two about the Swedes, while I enlightened him on American 4/20 culture.
J: Does Sweden have baseball?
Jayplay: So Fredrik, where are you now? Nilsson: Right now, we're in Boston. Our venue is across from Fenway Park.I think a game is starting soon; there's a lot of commotion.
J:What do you think Americans could learn from Swedes?
J: To me, Sweden seems like a utopia with its lack of crime, statuesque blondes, and environmentally-conscious society. Is there any truth to that?
N: Well, we don't have as many homicides or murders as in America. It's much harder to get weapons in Sweden. There are a lot of tall blonde people, too, but we're not all blonde. People are pretty environmentally-conscious. So yeah, there's definitely some truth to that.
N: I don't know that they should learn anything. We have a way of thinking that is very un American. In America, you're supposed to have it all. Nothing is impossible. Everyone has the potential to be the president. In Sweden, we
OF
think of each other as being all the same, if you want to be on top, you can't think like a Swede anymore. Somewhere between those two ways of thinking would be best. A lot of Americans don't have passports, so they don't necessarily know about the rest of the world. When you take a vacation, you go to California or Florida and stay within your borders. Most Americans can only compare America with America, and I think it's useful to travel and experience different cultures.
J: Do you bring anything from home on tour with you?
N: We always bring this one candy — it's a black salty licorice. It's not at all like your red licorice. I brought about a pound of it with us, but it only lasted a few weeks.
N: I always try to bring some Airborne with us to bring back home. It's that stuff that helps with the immune system. It really helps. I travel with so much stuff, so I don't really bother buying me. We're in America a lot anyway, so it's never too long before we're back. I do wish we had Gatorade. If all those sporty guys and gals are drinking it, it has to be good for something.
J: This interview is going to be printed next Thursday, which is 4/20. Is it celebrated in Sweden?
J: Are there any American products that you lug back?
N: I've heard about that, but I don't know anything about it. We don't have that in Sweden. What is it exactly?
Jit's basically a holiday for marijuana smokers.
N: Oh, really? Anything to do with drugs is frowned upon in Sweden. It's a big no-no.

Online sites offer insights into anorexia debate
At 4, convinced that she was fat, Darcy started starving herself. By 11, Darcy was wolfing down laxatives, diuretics and diet pills to lose weight. But Darcy says she felt in control of her habits until she discovered the Internet and got her first glimpse into online anorexia.
She was 15 when she wandered onto a "pro-ana" page — a Web site that promotes anorexia, or "ana," and offers tips on how to lose weight. Darcy, now 21, says she thought these sites full of "thinspiration" (photos of emaculated models) were fabulous. She enjoyed the pro-ana sites' weight loss tricks so much that at 16 she created her own site. Darcy says her site's intention was to "help" other anorectics in their sickness — meaning share ways to lose weight.
Darcy decorated her site, called Finding My Wings, with gaunt goddesses and wasted waistlines. But while these photos inspired her, it was the tips and tricks part of her page that Darcy turned to most. From her online interactions, Darcy says, she learned more ways to lose weight. Taking suggestions from her forum, Darcy started dabbling in dangerous weight loss techniques.
She graduated from restriction to purging, which she did as often as 20 times a day. She experimented with extreme exercise routines and diets. She traded in her diet pills for an antihistamine trick she read on her pro-ana site. Darcy scaffed down "handfuls" of antihistamines daily.
"They kept me so out of it that I didn't have the presence of mind to think about eating, much less do it." Darcy says.
The antihistamine abuse eventually sent Darcy to the hospital. It was here, hovering at 85 pounds, that Darcy realized her pro-ana sites were romanticizing the disorder. Lying in her hospital bed, Darcy reached her lowest point.
"I purged into my bedpan because I thought the combination of toast and the IV would make me fat." Dairy says.
It was then that Darcy decided to change her Web site from a pro-anorexia slant. to a pro-survival pitch.
More than 10 million Americans struggle with anorexia, according to the National Eating Disorders Association. The disorder, most prevalent among women 11 to 25, has long been a subject of interest and debate. On- and off-line, anorexics and medical professionals quarrel over the disorder's cause and remedy. But with pro-ana sites' content changing from promoting the disease to managing it, the divide is slowly shrinking. Both Web site creators and medical professionals are beginning to investigate the possible benefits of an online community for eating disorder sufferers. But while evidence suggests this new wave of "ana" sites have the potential to discredit the old and offer advice to all, both sides of the debate remain leary of abuse.
Anorexia has been classified as a mental illness for decades, says Dr. Doug Bunnell, member of the board of directors for the NEDA. The psychological components and thought disturbances associated with anorexia clearly distinguish it as a mental illness, Bunnell says. But sites like Ana's Underground Grotto, plagueangel.net/grotto, vehemently declare otherwise. According to the Web site, "anorexia is regarded as a lifestyle and a choice, not an illness or disorder."
The lifestyle viewpoint is the driving factor behind pro-ana sites, says Katie Weber, Homboldt freshman, Weber, who visited pro-ana sites when struggling with anorexia, recognizes anorexia as a disorder but emphasizes it as a choice.
"It's at the back of every girl's mind; should I eat today or starve myself?" Weber says.
Helen, 16, says her starvation was a personal choice, and her site Ashes Of One, geocities/ashes_of_one, reflects that mentality. Helen doesn't see her anorexia as a disorder, but rather a decision to lose weight. Ashes Of One is more for those who embrace anorexia as a lifestyle than an illness, Helen says. Besides boasting a "thinspiration" gallery, Ashes Of One posts the Ana Psalm and Creed. The Psalm and Creed are the universal, 'unbreakable' rules for anatotics to live by. They encourage fasting and reject recovery.
While Helen and others maintain their eating habits are an individual's rational choice, research suggests a strong genetic link. A correlation between anorexia and chromosomes 1 and 11 has been established, says Beth McGilley, Wichita psychologist and eating disorders specialist. Seventy percent of anorectic cases are linked to heredity, McGilley says. But, she says, genetics aren't the only driving force behind anorexia. Many social and circumstantial aspects contribute as well.
"Genetics loads the gun, but culture pulls the trigger," McGilley says.
It was the recognition that pro-ana sites might be pulling the trigger that made Darcy revamp her site. To show the 'real' side of anorexia, Darcy removed the frail models on her page and replaced them with photos of caged mice and desolate individuals. Her remodeled site, now painted with wings and the words "life" and "hope", represents the new generation of ana Web sites. No longer recruiting or encouraging, the 'new' ana sites offer compassion.
"They support each others' health, not death," Darcy says.
With a change in attitude comes a change in reception. Researchers now are exploring possible benefits to the altered sites, including anonymity,
availability, support and setting an example. A soon-to-be-published article for The Journal Of Treatment and Prevention cites these forums as "refuges for those living with the condition." The article, by Stephanie Tierney, acknowledges the sites as places that offer understanding with no motive to foster anorexia. In fact, Tierney writes, the sites could assist both anorectics and treatment specialists in recovery.
Complete anonymity and 24-hour access are two potential benefits Tierney notes in her article. At any hour, anorectics can log online for support without the fear of being Judged. Tierney says, however, that delayed responses with the lack of verbal cues could actually worsen despondent feelings. But overall, Tierney's research shows, anorexia sites could aid in diminishing feelings of loneliness that accompany the disorder.
Because eating disorders intensify social anxiety and self-consciousness, many anorectics tend to isolate themselves, treatment specialist Ed Bloch says. This social withdrawal often results in deterioration of social skills, says Bloch, who owns Life Enrichment Center, 4830 Bob Billings Pkwy. By sharing experiences online, Bloch says, supportive sites can help individuals feel less alone while promoting a change in behavior. The Life Enrichment Center treats a variety of eating disorders.
Lauren, designer and operator of Not Otherwise Specified, lexusine.candyandrazorbades.net, says the most common response her site receives is from people "immensely" grateful to hear that someone shares their situation.
"It means a lot to know that they're not all alone," Lauren, 21, says.
Eating disorders can stand in the way of making connections with "real-life
TELL-TALE SIGNS
Because everyone's body is unique, it's difficult to accurately evaluate a person's eating and exercise habits. What might be healthy for one person could be harmful for another. To determine whether your habits may be dangerous, take the National Eating Disorder Association's quiz.
→Do you avoid eating meals or snacks when you're around people?
→Do you constantly calculate numbers of fat grains and calories?
→Do you weigh yourself often and find yourself obsessed with the number on the scale?
→Do you ever feel out of control when you're eating?
→Do you feel ashamed, disgusted or afraid when eating?
▶Do you feel ashamed, disgusted or guilty after eating?
→Do you exercise because you feel like you have to, not because you want to?
Has weight loss, dieting and/or control of food become one of your major concerns?
→Do you feel your identity and value is based on how you look or how much you weigh?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, you could be facing an eating disorder. Log on to edap.org and click on the Sharing with EEEE handout for tips on seeking help.

friends," because of the difficulty of "coming out" to someone who may not relate, Lauren says. Online communities such as hers take some of the pressure off because everyone shares the same issue, Lauren says.
Before Lauren created Not Otherwise Specified, the term given for non-categorized eating disorders, she hosted Diagnosed Pursuit of Perfection, a type of pro-ana site she now condemns.
Kelly, creator of Ana Lifestyle, anallifestyle.com, says the change in sites like Lauren's allow not only for comfort but also for a community and recovery. Feeling alone with her anorexia, Kelly, 28, formed her site to provide a community for people dealing with the disease. Even though she feels her site does promote eating disorders as a lifestyle, Kelly says her sites' goal was to offer a place of love and friendship.
"We need support from people who understand." Kelly says. "Otherwise we'd go off the deep end."
To help people struggling with anorexia, Kelly says her site has a buddy system and chat rooms. Kelly says these features, along with links to recovery sites like something-fishy.org, can actually promote health for those not ready to seek recovery and encourage those who are.
Tierney, author of the most recent research on these sites, writes in her article that professionals in the recovery field could actually benefit from visiting the sites. Because anorectics are more open on the sites, Tierney writes, professionals could visit and gain a better insight into the motives behind anorexia's self-destructive behaviors. Some professionals are even investigating the use of online sites as therapy. Tierney writes.
Jenny Wilson, Stanford University research assistant, says that while conducting a study on the new, pro-survival sites, she saw potential for recovery sites to learn from the survival sites. Participants in the study said online sites, both pro-anorexia and pro-recovery, were too extreme, Wilson says. It would be better if the sites could learn from each other, she says, and fall somewhere between triggering the disease and being too authoritarian.
Sarah, creator of pro-ana site Evanescence, evanescence.itgo.com, says in some cases the sites can be the last straw, prompting a relapse. But they can also serve as a reminder to those in recovery why they don't want or need to relapse, Sarah, 19,says.
Bunnell, NEDA board of directors member, says patients are already ambivalent about their recovery and any message that paints their disorder as acceptable may prompt a relapse. Studies show that out of 100 young girls who view positive anorexic material, five or six will develop symptoms while one or two will develop the disease, Bunnell says.
But while the benefits are still being explored, potential dangers of any site containing anorexic matters still exist. Both professionals and site creators worry that the sites could cause a relapse for someone in recovery or be misused to perpetuate harmful behaviors.
"It's not a black and white issue," Sarah says. "It's a fine line between helpful and harmful."
THE RIGHT APPROACH:
HOW TO VOICE CONCERNS EFFECTIVELY
The longer an anorectic goes untreated, the harder the road to recovery is. As it is, 10 percent of diagnosed anorectics will ultimately die from the disease, says Doug Bunnell, member of the board of directors for the National Eating Disorders Association. To increase your friend's chances at survival, follow this guide when voicing concerns.
Plan. Set up a time to talk. Find a private, relaxed meeting place where you can openly and honestly discuss your concerns in a caring, supportive way. Make sure the place is free of distractions.
Express. Share memories of specific times when you were concerned about their behavior. Explain that you think these times indicate a possible problem that needs professional attention.
Ask. Ask your friend to explore these concerns with a professional. If you feel comfortable, offer to help make an appointment or go along with them on the first visit.
Avoid Conflict. A battle of the wills is not the goal. If your friend refuses to acknowledge there is a problem, restate your feelings and reasons for them and leave yourself open and available as a supportive listener.
Refrain from Blame. Don't place guilt or shame onto your friend's actions or attitudes. Don't use accusatory "you" statements like,"You just need to eat." Instead, use "I" statements like,"I'm worried that you refuse breakfast and lunch."
Don't Simplify. Simple solutions aren't the answer. For example, "If you just stoll then everything would be fine."
Continue. Remind your friend that you care and want them to be healthy and happy. Leave by telling them you'll be open to talk at their convenience.

JESSICA'S JOURNEY
one woman's path from rock-bottom to recovery
Throughout her five-year struggle with anorexia, Jessica has lost a lot of things. She's lost a total of 60 pounds, handfuls of hair, her health and her sanity. But still nothing deterred her from diet restrictions and purging. That is, not until she lost her best friend Aly to anorexia.
Jessica, Lawrence junior, began starving herself the summer of her junior year in high school. After a falling out with some of her friends, Jessica spent the summer at home, counting calories. Starting summer at roughly 160 pounds, Jessica began her senior year at 125 pounds, Jessica, at 5-foot-11, had dropped 35 pounds in less than three months.
"My parent's didn't notice because they saw me every day," Jessica says."But my classmates, after not seeing me for three months, could definitely tell."
Jessica continued restricting her diet, counting four grapes as a meal, until the beginning of October, when her friends approached her parents with concerns. After realizing Jessica had a problem, Jessica's parents gave her an ultimatum: lose any more weight and be hospitalized. Jessica says she didn't try to lose weight that week, but ended up dropping another 5 pounds.
"I tried to adjust the scale so they wouldn't know, but I couldn't figure out how," Jessica says.
It was mid-October when Jessica walked into Baptist Medical Center, 6601 Rockhill Rd., Kansas City, Mo., for treatment. Upon arrival, she was instructed to hand over her "sick clothes." (Sick clothes being the term used for the clothing aninotears use at an unnaturally low weight.) Weighing only 115 pounds, Jessica reluctantly handed over her size 4 jeans.
It was during her five-month stint at Baptist Medical Center that Jessica met Aly. Aly was older, already attending KU, and it was her third hospitalization.
"I hated her at first. She was blonde and thin." Jessica says.
At that time, Aly was 5-foot-8 and well under 100 pounds.
"She was everything I wanted to be," Jessica says.
While jealousy and competition initially kept Jessica away from Aly, time and their shared love of KU basketball eventually brought the two together. The two formed a sisterhood over their shared disease and an affinity for books. They stayed in touch and their friendship grew even after Jessica's release the following March.
Aly guided Jessica through her awkward stage as a freshman.Jessica watched her friend graduate,finish graduate school and was even present at Aly's wedding.The entire time,the two offered each other support when they felt prone to a relapse.
"We were exceptionally close because of our eating disorders." Jessica says. "We found support in each other because we understood each other on a level no one else could understand."
With the help of Aly and others, Jessica managed through her freshman year. But by fall of her sophomore year, life's pressures weakened Jessica's will. The "demon" emerged again, Jessica says, and she returned to her chaotic habits. Her parents continuously urged her to return to Baptist, but Jessica sidestepped their pleas with an array of excuses. It was the week before spring break when Jessica finally ran out of excuses and landed herself back in Baptist.
"I had gone off my antidepressant, a common trend of mine, and was already on a downward spiral when I had a caffeine overdose. At the time, I was hooked on diet pills and, one night, the pills, a triple latte and two Mountain Dews sent me over the edge."
Jessica doesn't remember much about that night, only that she had a panic attack. She can remember her heart pounding and calling a friend for help, but her memory ends there. When she woke at the hospital with bandages on her arms and stomach, she didn't know why. She had completely blocked out that she had repeatedly cut herself with a nail file.
But even this, what Jessica calls her
lowest point, didn't stop her chaotic eating habits. By the fall of her junior year, Jessica began purging five or six times a day. It wasn't until that winter break that Jessica decided to quit purging and return solely to restricting. Jessica says she tried to make her own rehabilitation center at her parent's house.
"It was like I was a little kid again and I had to retrain myself," Jessica says. "I kept telling myself, 'A toilet is not for purging.'"
She had a grip on her bulimia, Jessica says, when news of Aly's death pushed her deeper in the disease than ever.
It was early January when Aly, weighing well under 100 pounds, was again confronted by her parents and husband about her eating disorder. Two days after the intervention, Aly took her own life with sleeping pills. When Jessica's therapist first told her the news, Jessica didn't believe it.
"I thought it was a cruel joke to get me to eat," Jessica says. "I remember saying I'd do anything, I'd eat an effing cheesecake if she took it back."
In reaction to Aly's death, Jessica turned to
the gym for solace. Going from machine to machine, Jessica would spend three to four hours a day at the gym. Although she would tear up when she saw exceptionally thin girls at the gym, Jessica says she just couldn't tear herself away. Jessica even had to call her therapist from the women's restroom one day to convince her to leave.
But while Aly's death initially triggered Jessica's anorexia, it is now what keeps her from returning. After taking a week off to grieve and recover from her eating disorder, Jessica now is eating and exercising responsibly. She follows the three meals, two snacks a day diet her dietician designed for her. She limits her exercise to three sessions of yoga and toning a week and jogs with Aly's dog twice a week. She even has burned her size 4 pair of jeans.
"I think I've finally reached the point where I'd kick and scream before I'd ever let myself go back," Jessica says.
But if she does have a relapse, Jessica says she'll stop using the "I don't have time to save myself" excuse and seek help.

It's been five years since the Idaho-based Built to Spill's last album, *Ancient Melodies of the Future*. Thankfully, the band has not lost their touch because they return in top form with their blend of space guitar and whiny/ endearing vocals. If you are new to Built to Spill, this could be a great starting point although I still prefer 1999' Keep It Like a Secret. Either album should make you want to catch the band when they come to Lawrence in September.

On a warm Thursday evening, a young woman kisses her boyfriend goodbye and strolls into work wearing seven-inch stiletto heels and fishnet stockings. Mirrors along the walls reflect the colored strobe lights emanating from the ceiling. On stage, she smiles at her regulars as she dances seductively to Bon Jovi's "It's My Life."
The dancer is known as Gisele. She began working as a waitress last September for the adult-entertainment dance club Allstars, 913 N. 2nd St. Last March, Gisele became a topless dancer for the club.
"I look at it as theater," she says. Gisele became a dancer when she realized how much money she could earn in one night, she says. Gisele makes between $20 and $700 a night.
While it's a change from the usual Bull-Hawk-Wheel Friday night, an evening at Allstars is by no means the thriftest alternative to Lawrence's usual nighttime haunts. Customers at Allstars are treated well by the dancers, but these women mean business. Their goal is to obtain as much money as possible from a customer.
One customer, who calls himself Elvis, says he spends between $50 and $200 at the club on drinks, tips and lap dances. "Allstars is like a money pit," he says. "The first time I came here I got so smashed I never knew what hit me, and my wallet suffered the most."
Allstars employs about 24 women between ages 18 and 30. Gisele, 22, believes there is a fundamental difference between a stripper and a dancer.
"When I think of a 'stripper' I think of a girl who supports her drug habits," she says. "I think of a 'dancer' as being classy and working as hard as she can to support herself."
Gisele points out that the common stereotypes many people hold (e.g. excessive drug use and prostitution) for so-called "strip joints" are blown out of proportion."We don't snort cocaine in the bathroom or sleep with our customers," she says.
The customers at Allstars range from single to married men to couples on dates. They have the option of requesting individual table dances for $10, or entering the VIP lounge (The Champagne Room) for $20. Gisele adds that sometimes customers simply want to talk to someone."I recently spent an entire evening hanging out and consoling a group of military guys who were being
shipped off to Iraq," she says.
Although her parents are not aware of where she works, Gisele's boyfriend, Brian Anderson, Kansas State alumnus, fully supports his girlfriend's job.
"At first I wasn't sure about her taking off her clothes for a bunch of strangers, but later on I realized it was no big deal," Anderson says. "We completely trust one another, and I'm happy that she enjoys her job." Gisele says her job requires her to be a strong person because she is judged every day by the customers.
Another dancer, a 24-year-old senior known as Tori, began working at Allstars five years ago. She is good friends with Gisele and like the flexible work schedule and the money. "One night, I made over $1,000, thanks to a high-roller who strolled into the club," she says.
Like Gisele aid many of the dancers who work at Allstars, Tori will not tell her parents where she works. She feels she would be judged harshly by them."It's not just my parents, but my teachers at school and some of my friends who don't know what it do," she says.
Tori maintains she loves her job and has gained a tremendous sense of confidence since she began working at Allstars. She says most of the customers she dances for are polite, single guys of all ages. "There are times when guys come in and decide that we're not human," she explains. "But, whenever that happens I sic Big Will on 'em."
"Big Will" Reed, general manager of Allstars, says he loves his job and the women he employs. Reed, 30, has worked for an array of adult entertainment establishments throughout the state since he was a teenager.
His goal is to create an entertaining, comfortable atmosphere that everyone can enjoy, he says.
"My customers are at the heartbeat of my business," Reed says. "I ultimately want Allstars to be at the top of people's lists when deciding where to go out." Reed adds that April is the slowest month of the year for Allstars, and that it is important to throw fun events that will attract as many people into the venue as possible.
The Screw and Bolt Party held last Thursday evening involved customers drawing a screw from a bucket filled with hundreds of screws. Each of the dancers had a potential matching bolt. If the customer matched their screw with a dancer's bolt, then that person received two free lap dances and a bottle of Korbel. Unfortunately, there was no free lap dance or Korbel for me.

HEALTH
SPRING CLEAN
Make mom proud: toss the boxes, vacuum the drapes and improve your home health
by Jason Shoad
Ali Sultani estimates he has used a vacuum twice since August. Enrolled in 20 credit hours this semester, he says he probably won't use it a third time.
"I don't like cleaning," the Shawnee junior says."After a few weeks, everything is back on the floor."
When he does clean, it's for the sake of appearance, not health.
"I don't think it's been a big issue," Sultani says. "After a few parties some cups of beer were hidden and we didn't find them until they were all messy, and I guess that could be a health hazard, but I don't think anybody has gotten sick or anything."
Maybe not, but neglecting to vacuum under the bed or clean the refrigerator once in a while can create an environment in which germs, allergens and pests thrive.
Then again, maybe animals are in your home because you put them there. Anna Banks, Topeka freshman, has several pets, including cats, dogs, fish, birds and iguanas. Because she lives at home and her family is allergic to pet dander, Banks has to dust and vacuum almost every day to prevent eye irritation and sinus problems. If she doesn't clean on a daily basis, her allergies can get so bad they give her migraines, she says.
For example, old cardboard boxes in your closet or basement could cause a chain of pest problems. Bugs go into the boxes to feed off the glue that holds them together, says Bob Amyx, a consultant for Schendel Dest Services. Then spiders go into the boxes to eat the bugs, and mice go in to eat the spiders and make nests, Amyx says.
Insects like cockroaches also will feed on dirty dishes and trash. American cockroaches are especially attracted to beer, Amyx says. Because most insects are nocturnal, it may not be obvious they're in your home.
Pet dander and other allergens can be particularly troublesome for the 20 percent of the population with allergies, says Ron Weiner, a asthma and allergy specialist for Asthma Allergy & Rheumatology Associates, 346 Maine St.
Bed bugs (yes, they really exist) also have begun returning to homes during the past few years, Amyx says. He helped eradicate a bed-bug problem at Kansas State University that he says began when students who had stayed in international hostels brought back the bugs. Getting rid of bed bugs requires an exterminator, Amyx says, but keeping your sheets clean couldn't hurt.
Mice can transmit diseases like the hantavirus, which causes flu-like symptoms and eventually can cause the lungs to fill with fluid. Mice droppings can also spoil food. Spiders like the brown recluse, which Amyx says is the most common hunting spider in northeast Kansas, can inflict bites that cause skin lesions.

Indoor allergens like dust mites, pet dander, pests and mold can increase from a lack of cleanliness. Weiner says. Most indoor allergens cause the same symptoms, such as sneezing, itching and a runny nose.Mold spores, which can develop in refrigerators or old stacks of newspaper or magazines, can line your nose and cause itching, a runny nose and fatigue, according to the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America.In extreme cases, mold spores can reach the lungs, causing asthma.
Although allergies won't cause any major health problems, combined with a spring cold, they could increase a person's susceptibility to other illnesses, says Weiner, the allergy specialist.
So what can you do to make sure you're not sharing your home with insects and allergens?
The best way to help control allergens like dust mites, Weiner says, is to remember to change your home's air filter and do whatever you can to reduce humidity, which means keeping wet towels off the floor and tossing all the empty beer bottles.
Amyx, the pest consultant, recommends getting rid of old boxes and putting an inch-long chunk or a flea collar in the bag of your vacuum cleaner to
"it's another little trick that's got enough pesticide to kill insect eggs," Amyx says.
Jeff Campbell, author of several books on cleaning, including Spring Cleaning, says the traditional spring clean has nothing to do with spring but rather to do with the needs of each individual.
kill any insect eggs it sucks up.
Two particular problem areas for college students are the refrigerator and the area where the garbage is stored, he says."Especially when you have roommates, nobody takes anything out of the refrigerator," Campbell says. "There's a health issue there. Somebody should throw away everything that's been in there all month."
There are no magic cleaning products that people need for hard-core cleaning, but Campbell recommends avoiding antibacterial products that kill weak bacteria while creating a breeding ground for resistant bacteria strains. Also, most college students should invest in a new vacuum instead of using an old one, which might actually spit out more dirt and dust than it collects, Campbell says
And if vacuuming isn't your forte, at least dump the trash on a regular basis and dust once in a while. You'll help eliminate pest and allergens, and you'll improve your health.
SOMETIMES, IT'S GOOD TO SUCK
Getting the right vacuum will help keep the air clean in your home and improve the longevity of your carpet. But with vacuums, high-tech isn't always best, says Steve Pinegar, owner of Lawrence Vacuum and Sewing Center, Inc., 1449 W. $23^{\text{rd}}$ St.

"The best stuff is the prehistoric-looking stuff," Pinegar says. That means vacuumums that are made of metal and probably look like
Pinegar recommends buying these vacuums because they're powerful, durable and perform a single purpose.Vacuums that include both a floor vent and a hose don't work as well, he says."The lowest price single-purpose will out-perform the most expensive dual purpose,"Pinegar says.
Here's a look at a few vacuums that have earned Pinegar's approval:

Mining for Twilight MUSIC by Celebrity
The second release from Celebrity, *Mining For Twilight* can be described in one word: BOR-ING. It's a wonder, because Celebrity boasts an impressive list of influences such as The Cure, Smashing Pumpkins, U2 and Radiohead. Instead, the album sounds like it was influenced by people falling asleep.
Take "The Dangerous Kind," with its awkward vocals and dull music. Or, how about "Hellbent," with its corny hard-rock riff. Mining For Twilight just is a very interesting album. You'd have more fun studying trigonometry on a Friday night than listening to it.

REVIEWS
★
Gregor Samsa plays a SIGur Ros-type blend of slow-building anthems and long instrumentals. Unlike SIGur Ros, whose music builds to extreme emotional heights, Gregor Samsa peters out mid-way.
---
Maybe it's wrong to compare the two bands, but there are similarities. Slow instruments, quiet dynamics and simple melodies make up the majority of both bands' songs. Whereas Sigur Ros will leave you in awe of the power they possess, Gregor Samsa just leaves you knowledge of bored.
It's not to say the album is bad, because there are some good tracks such as "Even Numbers," which features some good male and female vocals and a powerful ending. But it's not enough to make the album worth hearing.

The result is The Benchwarmers.
Heder, playing a mac-and-
David Spade,Rob Schneider and Jon Heder (hell, just refer to him as Napoleon from now on) headline this potty comedy about giving nerds a chance to play baseball. The three of them take on Little League teams, and because of Gus's (Schneider) bizarre talent, they're horribly successful against their 12-year-old competitors.The movie gets some spice when Mel (Jon Lovitz), a billionaire super-nerd and father of another clichéd super-nerd, decides to start a tournament around the nation — with a million-dollar stadium as the prize.

Dynamite. He's
just a more

version, but I
will admit to laughing at some points in the movie because of him.
The third part to this pathetic trio is Richie (Spade), the manager of a video store with the worst bowl cut in existence, aside from the one sported by his brother Howie (comedian Nick Swardson), who fears the sun and hasn't left a closet in six months.
Gus, Clark and Richie begin to create a fan base, thanks to the other nerds watching the tournament games via Web cast. (Get it?) Nerds are on the
Internet all the time.) And with just one game separating the befuddled big boys in pinstripes from the elusive stadium, things once again get "interesting."
The Benchwarmers has some humorous parts. But for me, this movie lacked something. Ok, a lot of somethings. Unless you're a 13-year-old boy, don't bother seeing it.

Thank You for Smoking
THE WORLD'S GREATEST CITY, TORONTO
Nick Naylor is handsome, loyal to his son and good at his job. What makes him different is that the job he adores kills more than 12,000 people a day.
Naylor (Aaron Eckhart) is a lobbyist for the tobacco industry; he's a spindoctor who can verbally finagle his way around all of cigarettes' dangers. He does this because he loves it, even though he is universally loathed for his ingenious arguing skills.
We meet him on the fictional Joan Lunden show, where an unfortunate child cancer patient has admitted to giving up smoking. Naylor bites back with the fact that it is in the best interest of the tobacco industry to keep the kid alive and smoking. He even insinuates that the health industry wants to see the child die because the industry's statistics will then go up, effectively serving their cause in the future. In saying this Naylor cements his status as a warrior of words for tobacco.
Weekly, Naylor dines with the MOD (Merchants of Death) Squad, comprised of him and lobbyists for the alcohol and firearms industries. The sole purpose of
these meetings is to try to one-up each other in the number of deaths created by their respective industries. Naylor lives his life under the watchful eye of his son Joey (Cameron Bright), who is eager to learn more about who his father is and what he does for a living. Also snooping around is a nosy reporter (Katie Holmes), who will do anything to destroy Naylor's reputation.
The film's brilliance lies in its coolness, a style that is employed much too little. The last time I saw a film that emitted this kind of cool was Ocean's 11. It is shot in a way that reminds us of those glossy cigarette ads from the heyday of cigarettes, but this is no
pro-smoking film.Not one person in the entire film smokes a cigarette.The satire does its job in calling attention to the ridiculousness of tobacco industry tactics,but smokers won't feel alienated because the film doesn't condemn them. It is just so refreshing to see a genuinely cynical film that is so wonderfully ruthless in its comedy.In short,Thank You For Smoking delivers,tar and all.

Most people know very little about Iranian culture and society, except that Iranians follow strict
Islamic law and are a part of the proclaimed 'axis of evil.' Offening a closer look at Iran, Reading Luffa in Tehran is a combination memoir, literary discussion and social commentary by Azar Nafei, a former university professor in Tehran who resigned in protest of policies that repressed women.

A MEMORIA IN BOOKS
(2)
Following her resignation, Natal invites seven of her most talented female students to participate in weekly meetings at her home to discuss Western literature. The novels that the women read are illegal and they risk their reputations and even their lives by discussing them.
The memoir's plot is based on various interpretations of Western literature regarding Iranian culture and history. For example, Nafiel shows her students that Flitzgurk's The Great Gatsby can be seen as a metaphor for the violent Iranian revolution, and that Iranian women's objectification
an most engaging aspect of the novel is how it interweaves Western art and literature with Middle Eastern society. It allows Nafisa's students to better understand literature, and the reader to better understand Iran.
The tran of this book is one of religious theocracy strict astystalians and morality squads searching for
those in breach of Islamic law. The fact that women play the central role here amplifies the nation's gender inequalities.
Reading Joelha in Tehran is powerful memoir that will captivate anyone interested in women's rights, Iran's Islamic law or literature. It successfully bridges the gap between literary exposure and real life.

LOOKING BACK IN WONDER
One girl's obsession and connection with The Wonder Years
Carly Littleton
by Marion Hixon
Sitting between my Dell laptop and trusty Target desk lamp is a wooden picture frame. Rather than hold a picture of my boyfriend, family members or even a pet, it encases Kevin Arnold and Winnie Cooper, the main characters of The Wonder Years, who lovingly look out at me. I initially purchased the 8-by-10 glossy as a joke, but the fact that it's still on display is evidence of how much these fictional characters mean to me.
When I was in grade school, there were few times my parents would allow our family to eat dinner in front of the television. The Wonder Years got that distinction.Each Wednesday at 6:59 p.m., we sat in anticipation, our dinner plates teetering on our laps. The family on our screen captivated us, and we rarely missed an episode.
Arnold, played by a young Fred Savage, was the cutest pre-teen I had ever laid eyes on. I idolized his onscreen girlfriend, Winnie, and connected with his geeky best friend, Paul. It was Kevin's struggle to grow up, not his boyish charm, that really won me over.
Although the show was set in the 1960s, the Arnold family dynamic mimicked my own family. While Kevin and his brother put each other in headlocks over a game of football, my brother, sister and I wrestled over the remote. When a gawky Kevin danced with Winnie to Steppenwolf's "Magic Carpet Ride," I awkwardly shifted and swayed with my Junior high crush to Donna Lewis' "I Love You Always Forever." Kevin cheated in math class; I flat-out failed it.
What I got out of the show was the
ability to watch another kid grow up and face life's challenges, a kid who didn't have life handed to him on a silver platter, whose life wasn't always easy and whose problems weren't always resolved (at least not in 30-minute segments).
Unfortunately, something else I acquired was a huge crush on Kevin and an idealistic view of love. When Kevin and Winnie didn't end up together, I was convinced it was because he was destined for me. I kept expecting Kevin to awkwardly knock on my front door and ask me to take a walk or throw the football.(I hated football, but I would have loved it with Kevin.) I was twitterpated and emotionally drawn to this character's vulnerability and desperate displays of affection for Winnie.
When I think back on The Wonder Years,
the romantic and the realist in me collide. Kevin and Winnie's relationship had its ups and downs and was teeming with teen-angst. Their tumultuous courtship taught me that some things are even better when they're imperfect. The point *The Wonder Years* made about life was one I had to grow up to understand. Every relationship is different: friends can disappoint, family can bring joy and the people you're closest to can not only surprise you, but also let you down.
My favorite TV couple didn't stand the test of time — they went through a dramatic breakup in the final episode. What will last though, is the oversized color photograph on my desk. While I now have my feet firmly planted in reality, I can still take the occasional visit to TV-land and relive my childhood with Kevin Arnold.

Jayhawks take second and third in 1500m

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
Feelings of excitement and anticipation filled Memorial Stadium Thursday evening for the first races of the 2006 Kansas Relays. At 6:15 p.m., fans
had their first opportunity to catch some of the finest University of Kansas athletes perform in the men's 1500-meter run.
Adrian Ludwig,
Lawrence junior and Matt French, Howell,
Mich., junior.

were the two Jayhawks competing in the field of 14. Their race was the final of the three 1500-meter events and the race that contained the most talent.
Both Ludwig and French got off to slow starts at the sound of the gun. According to Ludwig, this fault was attributed to the relays running behind schedule, which changed warm-up schedules.
"I felt a little sluggish. Matt and I warmed up way too early. It was hard to get started and I didn't feel like I had my speed." Ludwig said. Despite this, Ludwig finished with a solid 4:03.58 finishing time that put him in second place.
On his second lap when Ludwig reached the same point on the track, he seemed to be taking much more confident strides. A minute and 51 seconds into the race, he distanced himself from other runners by taking command of the second place position.
Near the final turn of the first lap, Ludwig and French seemed to feed off of each other's energy as both surged ahead of the pack to fourth and fifth place, respectively, at the 44 second mark.
Matt French ran at a steady pace throughout all four laps and finished in sixth place. He
never seemed to fade or slow down even when some of the other runners mustered up all their energy to pass him in the final stretch.
"It's fun. I like being able to compete at home and having my friends come watch me." French said.
"The race was all right, it was kind of what I expected. My real focus this year is on the 10K," French said. Following his race, Matt spoke excitedly about having the opportunity to be to a competitor and a spectator in the annual event.
When the race entered the final turn, Adrian Ludwig had a calm expression on his face as he put up a fight to gain ground on the leader, Titus Tirop of Missouri Baptist University. Finishing on a strong note made Ludwig's second place performance stand out more.
"It wasn't too bad, I should have kicked a little harder to catch the guy in front of me" said Ludwig. Titus Tirop finished the race with a winning time of 3:59.95.
"I ran here all through high school and now college. It's great to be in with all the great athletes here. I'm proud to be a part of it." Ludwig said.

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Along with the new Hobbs Taylor Lofts at Eighth and New Hampshire streets, Bella Sera contributes to a new trend of high-end living in Lawrence, but Santaularia emphasizes there are differences between the two.
Lawrence may be known as a college town, but Anthony Santuaria doesn't expect any students to be living in his new condos.
The condos will aim to attract a high-end clientele, with units ranging from $300,000 to more than $1 million.
Santaularia's company, Diversified Concepts, is breaking ground on a new luxury condo building in Lawrence at the intersection of Bob Billings Parkway and Inverness Drive. called Bella Sem.
"Their main amenity is being
close to downtown, which attracts young, urban buyers," he said. "Ours attracts people that want to live out in a suburban environment with landscaping, a fitness center and other perks, so it's not a direct competition."
"I'd rather be closer so I don't have to drive as far," Carnes said. "But as you go out west, it's cheaper and you can get a better deal."
For students the choice can be one of convenience versus price. Owen Carnes, Manhattan sophomore, lives at Leanna Mar Townhomes, at Clinton Parkway and Inverness Street.
The two projects represent the two directions Lawrence is heading in. While some developers are trying to revitalize downtown, others are developing suburban areas farther west.
Downtown merchants are trying to find new ways to keep people
downtown. Bob Oderkirk, president of the board of directors of Downtown Lawrence, said in the coming months his group would be sponsoring several projects designed to show off the "exciting and unique" nature of downtown.
For Ryan White, Louisburg sophomore, the biggest factor was being close to campus.
He lives at 24th Street and Naismith Drive, and says he rarely ventures farther west than Iowa Street. Still, Santaularia is confident that when residents move out west, businesses will follow.
"Over the past five to 10 years, Lawrence has been growing quite a bit, and Wakarusa is becoming a new financial center," he said. "There are lots of new homes out that way, and people want to avoid having to drive downtown."

ACTIVISM
Week to focus on outreach
BY MELINDA RUCKETTS
mrickets@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Kristin Wilson remembers attending the Sleepout for Homelessness two years ago and listening to a man talk about the difficulty of getting back on his feet after being homeless.
He spoke about the lack of an effective safety net for people who are homeless and the vicious cycle of not being able to get a job without a place to live and not being able to get a place to live without a job.
"It's just a regular person who's been through hard times," Wilson said. "It's kind of eye-opening."
Sleepout for Homelessness is part of Into the Streets Week an annual community service event coordinated by the Center for Community Outreach, which starts on Saturday. There will be homeless speakers at the event again this year, and, later in the week, a forum on the homeless in Lawrence. At the forum, community officials will respond to Lawrence's ranking by the National Homeless Coalition as the second-meanest city to the homeless.
Wilson, Pittsburgh senior is the co-coordinator for Into the Streets Week, which runs through Sat., April 29.

Local bands play in Farmer's Ball
BY DEJUAN ATWAY
datway@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Michael Hendrickson, vocalist for the band Sexy If You're Maladjusted, is not sure how audiences will respond to his band's self-described "different sound." Still, he is excited to be preforming this weekend.
"We want to show Lawrence some good music because we are not a reflection of the pop culture music that is currently out there," he said. "A lot of indie bands sound just like mainstream music and it can be very blasé."
The band, which formed last year, will compete in KJHK's annual Farmer's Ball. The battle of the bands competition, which started Thursday night, and will continue until April 22.
The Farmer's Ball will feature seven other local bands including Boo & Boo Too, Vibralux, Death and Flowers, Paul Protocol, Marry Me Moses, Michael Garfield, and The Mountain Tops.
The bands were chosen by KJHK employees at a blind listening party. The employees
listened to roughly 55 bands without knowing the identity of the bands and narrowed the list down to eight.
The first semifinals took place Thursday night and the second will take place at 10 tonight at The Jackpot Saloon, 943 Massachusetts St. Four bands will perform each night. The four bands that survive will advance to the finals which will be held April 22 at The Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St.
The bands will be judged by five judges including the audience,which will cast ballots for the favorite band. The winners of the Farmer's Ball will win studio recording time worth an estimated $1,000.
Jaimie Oborny, Wakeeney senior and KJHK live events coordinator, said the Farmer's Ball is a way for KJHK to promote local music and continue a spring semester tradition.
"The local acts we have this year are killer and it's a great chance to hear some exciting local music," she said. "We are always trying to promote music that does not get as much play as other types of music."

Confetti cannon shuts down power in district
A cannon that fired confetti at a grand opening celebration in Shanghai damaged power lines and cut electricity to scores of factories, offices and homes, a newspaper reported.
Chinese often set off strings of firecrackers on auspicious occasions, but Shanghai Danone Biscuit Foodstuff Co. apparently sought an alternative to celebrate the opening of a new operation in an industrial park west of the city.
SHANGHAI, China - Maybe they should have stuck to firecrackers.
A 6-foot plastic strap that was accidentally ejected with the shredded paper wrapped around high voltage electrical cables, apparently causing a short circuit, the Shanghai Daily reported Wednesday.
"We heard a big bang and then the electricity was gone," the newspaper quoted Wang Xiaohua, an employee at a post office located opposite the new outlet, as saying.
At least two people were trapped in stalled elevators, and neighboring factories demanded compensation for damaged equipment and lost production, the newspaper said. A 50-member repair team needed five hours on Tuesday to get power running again, it said.
Charlie, here's your ticket to the bowling alley
VELVA, N.D. — The winner of a bowling tournament here gets a unique prize — the
bowling alley.
Star City Lanes owner Darin Bail says he needs to hand off the business because he must spend several months a year in Oregon because of a family situation.
"I call it the 'ultimate winner take all,'" Bail said. "There's one winner, no second-place prize. The winner gets the whole property — a bowling alley, restaurant, the real property that goes with it."
The tournament's format is different from most. The score
nearest to a bowler's own average will win, which ensures that someone who regularly bowls 75 could win just as easily as someone who rolls a 250 every time.
The entry fee is $250.
Qualifying rounds will be held at North Hill Bowl in Minot on May 27 and June 3, 10 and 17.
The top 12 bowlers will face off June 24 in Velva in the bowling alley they hope to win.
"People tell me we should expect 1,000 people," he said. The Associated Press
CORRECTION
■ Thursday's The University Daily Kansan contained an error. The article, "Team work pays dividends," should have quoted Gus Milner as saying, "Once you get up nine or 10 runs, then the umpire's zones start getting a little bigger. There's more out calls and stuff like that." The Kansan apologizes for any false light the original quote might have cast.
An article in Thursday's Jayplay contained an error. The article, "The thin web line," should have said that Darcy had two Web sites, the second of which was Finding My Wings. She stopped operating the first. In the same article, Darcy landed in the hospital from an unspecified drug overdose, not because of the use of antihistamines.

Library expansion to bring more than just books
BY RACHEL SEYMOUR
rseymour@kansan.com
KANSAN CORRESPONDENT
For the first time in their student careers at The University of Kansas, Patricia Maguire and Brett Marsteller, both Lenexa juniors, walked through the sliding glass doors of the Lawrence Public Library at 707 Vermont St. on Monday night.
The two strolled over to the DVD collection in search of some free entertainment. After going through multiple genres, from drama to foreign films, they headed to the checkout with nine DVDs. Maguire filled out a form for his first ever Lawrence Public Library card, free of charge, while "The Sixth Sense" rested on top of his stack of DVDs.
"I heard [the public library] had a good selection and thought I would check it out," Maguire said.
Recently the library and two
architecture firms — Gould Evans and Associates, and Meyers, Scherer & Rockcastle — produced and released a report summary for the Lawrence Public Library's expansion plan. The library's finished expansion date, if passed by the city, will be in 2025.
Bruce Flanders, library director, estimated about 60,000 people have library cards and about one-fourth of the local college students, including students from Haskell Indian Nations University, use the library's services.
According to the library task force, the building currently needs several facility enhancements that would make more information and other benefits, such as DVDs, available to the community and University students. The library's collection, which includes fiction, nonfiction, periodicals, language learning CDs and DVDs, totals about 25,000 items. The expansion
plan would nearly double the collection to about 40,000 items.
On-campus libraries have entertainment DVDs like the ones Maguire and Marsteller checked out, but are limited in their selection. Had the two Lenexa juniors stopped by Watson Library to pick up "The Sixth Sense," they would have left empty-handed.
Students can get more than just entertainment from the public library though. Several University students also use the reference section of the library, said Jeff Weinberg, assistant to Chancellor Robert Hemenway and library task force member.
Another plan for expansion that University students could benefit from includes an extension to the number of meeting rooms in the library. More than 450 student groups are listed under student organizations on the University Web site. These groups would all be able to use the meeting rooms and other
library services of the expansion.
Maggie Bixler, Topeka senior, visits the public library at least once a month and often finds it difficult to get on a computer. It is not unusual to have to wait up to 30 minutes for an available computer, she said.
By the time the expansion is completed in 2025, the number of computer workstations will increase from 24 to about 150, providing students with a better opportunity to use the library's now crowded computer terminals.
The crowded computers aren't the only part of the library needing space, though. Right now, the Lawrence Public Library has the seventh lowest square feet per capita of the Big 12 cities' libraries, according to the library's report summary. Manhattan ranks at the top, having 1.46 square feet per capita, while Lawrence has .65 square feet per capita.
The limited space at the library stems from the fact that the building is the same structure that was built more than 30 years ago. Currently the library covers about 52,000 square feet, but the expansion calls for a 127,000 square foot structure. Additional parking for 240 to 440 cars was also proposed.
This estimated cost for the new library structure and parking garage totals about $53 million. The construction of the library, not including the parking garage, additional parking or library furnishings, is an estimated $35 million of the total. But no set costs have been made, and Flanders said he thought the library could be built using less than $30 million if necessary.
cussions of exactly where the funds will come from are still under way.
To pay for the project a bond and private investors are being looked into. The private investors include people who either own the property options for the new location or can easily acquire it, Flanders said. Dis-
Four different locations for the library are currently being considered. All centered around downtown Lawrence. The four locations include: the 600 block of Vermont street, the 800 block of New Hampshire street, the 900 block of New Hampshire street, and the Riverfront Mall at Sixth and New Hampshire streets. The ultimate decision on the location will not be up to the library though.
The new library will span two to three-and-a-half stories and will depend on the decided location. The size of the parking garage depends on the property used for construction as well.
"We feel it's best for the city to decide where the library will be and what developer to go with," Flanders said.

Events throughout the week highlight social issues like homelessness, hunger, literacy, cultural diversity and environmentalism.
"Volunteering for any of this sort of stuff is kind of a way to get a sense of how you can make a difference." Wilson said.
Into the Streets Week coincides with National Volunteer Week this year. For the final event of the week, Day of Caring, the Center for Community Outreach is working with the Roger Hill Volunteer Center to organize service projects throughout Lawrence. Participants will meet and take buses to different locations.
"It's just one day to get a lot of stuff done in Lawrence, basically." Wilson said.
Anton Bengston, Salina junior and co-director of the Center for Community Outreach, said the center was careful to keep in mind that people have busy schedules, and made the events at different times every day.
"If people could come out to at least one event that would be a big help," he said.

The promotion of local music also attracts many quality local bands, including Paul Protocol.
Paul Eaton, Leawood junior and member of the band, said, "I was in the Farmer's Ball last year and I am really excited about this year. The prizes are cool but I like the exposure that the local bands get from Farmer's Ball."
Hendrickson said he was not sure how his band, Sexy If You're Maladjusted, would finish in the competition but the band will leave a lasting impression.
"Our performance will either be really heavenly or it will be like a bad off-Broadway musical," he said. "People are either going to love it or absolutely hate it."

Students continue sit-in to protest beaten teen
BY ANDREA FANTA THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — A sit-in at Gov. Jeb Bush's office stretched into a second day Thursday, as about 30 college students protested the state's response to the boot camp beating of a teenager who later died.
The meeting is attended by a number of dignitaries. From left to right, the following individuals are present:

The students, who met with Bush on Wednesday, are demanding the arrest of guards who were videotaped beating and kicking 14-year-old Martin Lee Anderson.
Ben Crump, standing right, the attorney for Gina Jones, center, and Robert Anderson, standing left, addresses students demonstrating in the office of Florida Gov. Jeb Bush after a meeting with Bush, Thursday, in Tallahassee, Fla. Jones and Anderson are the parents of 14-year-old Martin Lee Anderson, who died after he was kicked and struck by guards at a Panama City juvenile boot camp in January. A sit-in at Bush's office stretched into a second day Thursday as about 30 college students protested the state's response to the incident. The students, who met with Bush on Wednesday, are demanding the arrest of guards who were videotaped beating and kicking the boy.
"I'm pretty tired, but I know we got a long day ahead of us, and when you're working on issues like this ... physically the things that are going on almost stop mattering," said Gabriel Pedras, a Florida State University student who helped organize the protest.
"They certainly have every right to do it. I appreciate their interest in the process. I think it's very healthy," Bush said Thursday. "I'll continue to do what I think is right."
Bush's office said that the governor planned to meet with Anderson's parents Thursday, and that the student protests won't change the way the case is being investigated.
The students, from Florida State University, Florida A&M University and Tallahassee Community College, said they were planning a protest Friday at the three schools and the Capitol.
The Rev. Al Sharpton and the Rev. Jesse Jackson will participate, Sharpton's office said.
Hillsborough County State Attorney Mark Ober, appointed by Bush as special prosecutor to investigate the case, said he respected the students' right to protest, but urged people to remain patient.
As I told the (Anderson) family, when it's all said and done, I will look them in the eye and tell them I ethically and honestly did the very best job." Ober said. "I intend to get to the bottom of this — it's going to take a while."
Bush sent a letter Thursday asking Ober to investigate deleted e-mails belonging to the initial state investigator, who recused himself from the case because of personal ties. State Attorney Steve Meadows has said the e-mails were deleted unintentionally.
The students called on Bush to publicly apologize to the boy's parents and want the governor to release the findings of a second autopsy performed on Anderson and to revoke the license of a medical examiner who performed the first autopsy.
In the first autopsy, Dr. Charles Siebert ruled the boy died of complications from sickle cell trait, a usually benign blood disorder. Ober witnessed a second autopsy, and his office said Anderson didn't die of sickle cell, but details haven't been
released. Bush has said it would be premature to release the findings before the entire investigation is complete.
The governor said Thursday that he told the students he does
"I appreciate their frustration because I'm frustrated as well," Bush said. "I told them the facts, told them the truth."
not have the constitutional power to carry out their demands.
Bay County has closed its boot camp, and the House Justice Appropriations committee wants to replace camps statewide with residential programs. The U.S. Justice Department is
also investigating possible civil rights violations in the case. A lawyer for the Anderson family has said that he did not help organize the protest, but that the family is "appreciative."
Thousands protest king, security responds with fatal shooting

Police push back opposition party supporters trying to break the police barricade as they demonstrate against King Gyanendra in Katmandu, Nepal, Thursday. Nepalese police opened fire Thursday on tens of thousands of pro-democracy protesters who defied a curfew to march toward the capital, killing at least three and wounding dozens more, witnesses and hospital officials said.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Despite a curfew imposed to head off protests, an alliance of seven opposition parties that has organized 15 days of protests and a general strike managed to draw as many as 100,000 people into the streets, according to estimates by police, organizers and witnesses.
Gyanendra came under more diplomatic pressure on Thursday to cede the power he seized 14 months ago from an interim government.

trolling in armored vehicles, and at least one police post had been attacked, its windows smashed by bricks.
Many of those protests turned violent as demonstrators parried with officers throughout the day, often tossing back tear gas canisters to cheers from supporters watching from rooftops.
While there have been bloodier days since the protests began, much of Nepal's life — political and economic — is centered in Katmandu, and Thursday's demonstrations dwarf all earlier ones in the capital.
The worst violence came on the city's western edge, where police trying to keep more than 10,000 protesters from reaching the ring road opened fire with tear gas, rubber bullets and finally live ammunition.
KATMANDU, Nepal — Tens of thousands of Nepalis defied a curfew to protest Thursday in the largest show of discontent with King Gyanendra since demonstrations against his royal dictatorship began more than two weeks ago. Security forces responded by fatally shooting three protesters.

The senior offices "aimed straight for the (protesters)," said Ankul Shrestha, a 28-year throwing bottles at police in Kalanki. Other witnesses confirmed his account and protesters showed reporters fresh bullet casings.

Doctors at Katmandu's Model hospital said three people were killed in Kalanki and that police took the bodies away. More than 40 people were in critical condition, most with head injuries. Thursday's shootings brought the death toll to 13 since the demonstrations began.
Hundreds more were reportedly injured around the city, including 13 police officers whose clearly exhausted colleagues were, by the end of the day, being forced against demonstrators by senior officers swatting them with rattan poles.
The nearly two dozen demonstrations, which brought as many as 100,000 people into the streets around the capital Katmandu, ranged from festive pro-democracy rallies to angry riots of young men who lit bonfires and hurled bricks at police. Some demanded the death of the king, whose government appears increasingly unable to control the country.

OUR OPINION
New station provides safety, shorter wait
PAGE
Residents of McCollum Hall, rejoice. Your relentless efforts to make the University safer have paid off. All those fire alarms have finally been heard by city hall.
The city of Lawrence is opening a new fire station at 19th Street and Stewart Avenue, across the street from your residence hall. Think of the benefits.
Now, when one of you decides to pull the fire alarm, the beleaguered firefighters will only be a stone's throw away. No more waiting in the cold for firefighters to make the 1.7 mile trek. Your friends will be right across the street.
No doubt that, besides improving campus safety as well as the efficiency of Lawrence-Douglas County Fire and Medical, fire fighters will respond faster to the alarms in residence halls.
All those students standing in their sweatpants at 2:17 a.m. on a Thursday should get some relief from the antics of some freshman coming home from the bars for the first time
Fire fighters will also spend less time trucking between
Issue: The new fire station at 19th and Iowa streets
Stance: Not only does this mean improved student safety, it will also means less time spent waiting after false alarms.
the station and the residence halls.
But why not take it one step further?
But an even better idea would be to quit pulling so many fire alarms.
John Jordan for the editorial board
Not only would this cut down waiting time, it would build rapport between the two competing groups and could give an intimidating presence to would-be alarmists.
A fire station could be set up inside of McCollum Hall. A small crew and ladder could be maintained during peak hours of fire alarms.
It's a great idea.
Semester time limit short shrifts GTAs
OUR OPINION
One of the most common worries facing Americans today is job security — workers are wondering whether they will be able to continue working and supporting themselves.
According to The University Daily Kansan, the university considers this a "non-monetary issue." The need to have a steady paycheck for the duration of study is a non-monetary issue? Nonsense.
Here at the University, where students come to learn how to navigate the job market, a similar situation presents itself. The University has declared that GTAs should not be able to hold onto positions long enough to complete a degree, capping appointments at 10 semesters. After this, students must find their own sources of funding.
in the world don't amount to anything if graduate students aren't allowed to keep working until their degree is finished.
Keeping their jobs is a central monetary issue for GTAs. All the salary changes
The University knows 10 semesters isn't sufficient because six credit hours is considered full time for teaching graduate students. We shouldn't need to send this down to the math department to figure out that nine semesters would be spent before even reaching the dissertation phase in most areas of study. One semester to write a dissertation? That doesn't exactly sound like a way to promote academic excellence.
Follow your own logic KU clearly the 10 semester rule has got to go.

Non-revenue sports deserve fans, not just voter support
COMMENTARI
The University of Kansas is nationally known as a men's basketball school. 16,300 fans pack Allen Fieldhouse whenever there is a home game to cheer on the Jayhawks. The University is also creating a buzz about its improving football program. Back in October, 54,109 fans made the trek to Arrowhead Stadium to watch Kansas play the Oklahoma Sooners. That is a lot of fan support for two teams who definitely deserve it, but what about the non-revenue sports? They deserve just as much attention, especially since the student body of the University recently voted to give them extra money.
---
ERIN WILEY opinion@kansan.com
I'm not knocking the men's basketball team or football team and the support they get. I went to every home football game and traveled to Manhattan and Arrowhead Stadium and attended every home men's basketball game but one. You may call me a
Last week in the Student Senate elections, voters approved Referendum No. 2, which increases the student fee by $20 each semester to support non revenue sports everything but men's basketball and football. If the student body is not against increasing fees each semester to support these teams, there is no reason not to go out and actually support these events in person.
hypocrite for not attending all the women's basketball games, but I did go to a couple and had a fun time. It's fun to be a sports fan and to support all sports.
Now that both of those seasons are over, sports fans need something to fill the sports voids in their lives until Sept. 2, when the football team kicks off its season against Northwestern State.
This weekend is the perfect time to start supporting some of the sports that the increased fee will support next fall.
The headlining event for the weekend is the Kansas Relays, which will be held through Saturday and include Goldzone II. This is a chance to pack Memorial Stadium and watch not only world-class athletes like Olympic champion Maurice Greene, but also competitors in high school and college, including athletes from the University.
This event should draw crowds like the basketball or football games. It's too bad that it doesn't. Just more than
24,000 people attended Goldzone last spring. The average attendance at each home football game this season was more than 43,000.
Any student here who is a sports fan should be more than happy to trek over to Memorial Stadium and watch world-class athletes perform free with a student ID. If a vote can pass to increase student fees, and if students are willing to pay this amount each semester, then people should support the events, too.
If you're not interested in track and field, there are a couple of other non revenue sports taking the field this weekend. Baseball starts a three-game series with Kansas State tonight at Hoglund Park. Nothing beats a baseball game against an in-state rival. With an increase in fan support, baseball games are becoming just as fun to attend as basketball or football games. The softball team also takes on Texas this weekend at home.
Get your 20 bucks worth of quality sporting events. It's as simple as if you voted 'yes' last week. Go support the teams who work hard and want fans to fill their stands just like the men's basketball and football teams do.

The city of Lawrence is considering a proposal that calls for a review of potential retail spaces over 50,000 square feet. The aim of this proposal is to protect the financial viability of downtown Lawrence as the town continues to expand westward.
SUBMISSIONS
The motivation behind this proposal is admirable. However, the approach seems too focused on one side of a fundamentally two-sided problem. Furthermore, without a diversification of effort, the proposed plan may do more harm than good.
For any questions, call Jason Shaad or Patrick Ross at 864-4810 or e-mail opinion@kansan.com.
COMMENTARY
The Kansan welcomes letters to the editors and guest columns submitted by students, faculty and alumni.
Business solution is shortsighted
PENGERTA
The proposed review process would consist of a tax-based assessment of Lawrence's ability to support another retailer without threatening existing stores that deal in a particular type of product — shoes, for example. If the review finds that the city cannot support another retail center, the city would have the power to deny that retailer the chance to operate.
I strongly advocate supporting local business, particularly those in the downtown area, because they contribute to one of my favorite parts of Lawrence. Nonetheless, Lawrence isn't a vacuum, and sometimes the affordability of retail goods from nearby metro areas can be just too attractive to walk away from.
Because of this, the approach outlined above may not be entirely wrong, but it seems short sighted. The fact that this proposal has been made implies the sense that downtown stores are, or soon will be, having trouble competing with other stores in town. This is likely, at least in part, the result of higher rent for space, which translates into higher costs for consumers. This phenomenon is even more pronounced when the cost of goods sold downtown is compared with that of goods sold in nearby metro areas.
■ Vincent is an Overland Park senior in English.
It seems very likely that if this existing proposal passes, the result will be an increased property value for the already existing retail centers — thus, an increase in rent and an increase in end costs to consumers. Following this, the downtown area will be even less competitive with stores in surrounding metro areas.
So here enters the second side of the problem, which is not being addressed adequately. Something needs to be done not only to lessen the competition for downtown retailers, but also to make the downtown retailers more competitive in their own right. Somehow, prices of goods need to be lowered to a more competitive range. An adjustment in property tax may be one means to a solution. Whatever the answer is, I genuinely believe that most people in Lawrence will pay a little extra to support a special part of Lawrence, but these people need to be met halfway.
General questions should be directed to the editor at editor @kansan.com.

STATE COLUMBINE ANNIVERSARY
Massacre plans exposed
RIVERTON — Five teenage boys accused of plotting a shooting rampage at their high school on the anniversary of the Columbine massacre were arrested Thursday after details of the alleged scheme appeared on the Web site MySpace.com.
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Sheriff's deputies found guns, ammunition, knives and coded messages in the bedroom of one suspect, Sheriff Steve Norman said. Authorities also found documents about firearms in two suspects' school lockers.
"What the resounding theme is? They were actually going to do this." Norman said.
Norman said he would ask prosecutors to bring charges of conspiracy to commit murder against the teens, ages 16 to 18. He said the state attorney general would handle the prosecution.
Deputies' interviews with the suspects indicated they planned to wear black trench coats and disable the school's camera system before starting the attack between noon and 1 p.m. Thursday, Norman said. The suspects apparently had been plotting since the beginning of the school year.
Officials at Riverton High School began investigating on Tuesday after learning that a threatening message had been posted on MySpace.com, he said.
The message discussed the significance of April 20, which is Adolf Hitler's birthday and the anniversary of the 1999 Columbine High School attack in Colorado, in which two students wearing trench coats killed 13 people and committed suicide, the sheriff said. Norman said that the potential victims were popular students and that the suspects may have been bullied.

BY ROBERT WELLER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LITTLETON, Colo. — As a sophomore at Columbine High School seven years ago, Marjorie Lindholm was a cheerleader with a 3-plus grade-point average who wanted to become a doulin.
For life changed dramatically when the killing spree began on April 20, 1999. Lindholm found herself locked in a classroom with other students and a teacher, Dave Sanders.
She was there for four hours as Sanders and 12 classmates were gunned down by students Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, who later shot and killed themselves.
Now 24, Lindholm believes she has only recently begun to heal. Writing a book, "A Columbine Survivor's Story," with her mother has helped, she said.
Many survivors have moved on after the deadliest school shooting in the nation's history. But for others marking the massacre's seven-year anniversary Thursday, it has been more difficult.
Sean Graves was shot four times and paralyzed from the waist down. The father of Mark Taylor, who was hit by more than a dozen bullets, left his family in 2001 after 34 years of marriage. Anne Marie Hochhalter's mother killed herself 18 months after the massacre, which left her daughter paralyzed from the waist down.
Brooks Brown, a friend of the two killers, was briefly named a suspect by authorities, outraging family members who had reportedly tried to warn sheriff's deputies that Harris had threatened Brooks and was building bombs. Brown said he is now doing well, running a small video production company.
And there are others.
Columbine Principal Frank DeAngelis went with a divorce after throwing himself into his work, but is now engaged to his high school sweetheart.
There were no classes at Columbine on Thursday, as is the case each anniversary. Relatives of the victims and survivors by now are used to calls from reporters. For Dawn Anna, the mother of Lauren Townsend, the 18-year-old valedictorian slain that day, the calls are far from a nuisance.
"When you call you are remembering Lauren," she said.
"When you hit bottom you don't
stay down there very long. Issues come that take you back. But we have chosen to remember Lauren's light and beauty."
Brian Rorhbough, whose son, Daniel, was killed, planned to host a radio show Thursday to discuss the investigation into the killers and whether the attack could have been prevented, as some contend. "The public has a right to know what happened," he said.
In her book, Lindholm recounts her memories of April 20,1999.
"Within seconds, the whole building began to shake, and I heard the unmistakable sound of gunshots and extremely loud screaming," she wrote. "The gunfire was so loud that it didn't seem like normal guns could make that much noise."
About 20 students and teachers took shelter in the science classroom two doors down from the library, where most of the killing was done.
Sanders, Lindholm's typing teacher, was brought into the room with gunshot wounds to
his neck and upper back. Students covered him in a blanket and took pictures of his family from his wallet and showed them to him, hoping to keep him conscious.
"I can't breathe and I'm not going to make it," he said, according to Lindholm's recollection.
The rescue was as terrifying as the wait, with SWAT team members leading the students out at gunpoint, apparently unaware whether they were victims or assailants.

Sure, Humphreys knows she might match up against Texas' Cat Osterman, one of the nation's top pitchers, this weekend at Arrocha Ballpark. But the way she's pitched in April, Humphreys has little reason to be concerned.
really do think it will, there's really not a lot to worry about," the junior pitcher said.
When on the mound, there's no time to worry. Instead, she just oozes confidence. Whether winning or losing, Humphreys' delivery never changes.
In her past 57 innings on the mound, Humphreys has allowed only 18 hits. That translates to only three hits a game in month of April. She currently sits in second in the overall Big 12 Conference, behind Osterman, in pitching rankings.
"What Kassie has been doing the last couple weeks is throwing the ball among the best in the country," Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said.

Reaching base against Humphreys has been quite a feat, especially in April.
"It's still pretty focused," Humphreys said of her mindset when pitching in different situations. "I just come out and try and get ahead of hitters and when runners get on, especially in scoring position, you just have to get mentally tough."

Think Vince Young is the most accomplished athlete from the University of Texas during the past four years? Think again.
Not a bad legacy for someone who didn't even try pitching until she was 11. As a youth
TEXAS
Osterman, a pitcher likely to take the mound against Kansas on Saturday, currently leads the nation with 27 wins (with only one loss) and 419 strikeouts. Earlier this year, the senior struck out 20 of 21 batters against UT-San Antonio.
Has Young won any Olympic gold medals? Nope. Did he win player of the year in his sport twice and have a chance to do it a third time? Not even close. Was he the first athlete from his sport to grace the cover of Sports Illustrated? Sorry Vince, you were about 100 covers late.
Only one Longhorn athlete has accomplished all of those feats, and she is Cat Osterman.
"I think Cat is one of softball's all-time greats," Texas coach Connie Clark said. "She's going to be remembered with some of the very best."
Those numbers may seem outrageous, but they are the norm for the lefty, whose career numbers include a 0.50 ERA,125 wins and an NCAA-record 2.027 strikeouts.
in Houston, Osterman was into soccer, in which she played goalkeeper. She also played basketball though high school. But once the 6-foot-2 Osterman began pitching, she knew softball was for her.
"I'm a pretty stubborn person," Osterman said. "If I make up my mind, I'm going to do it."

The Longhorn coaching staff also knew softball was Osterman's game after her first year of high school, when they first laid

three years later, Osterman arrived in Austin. She let her presence be felt in her freshman season, as she won Big 12 Player of the Year, set an NCAA freshman record for strikeouts and tied for the NCAA lead in wins.

Because Babe Ruth is known as the Sultan of Swat for his hitting prowess, the Jayhawk nation should refer to Serena Settlemier as the Countess of Crush for her Ruth-like presence at the plate.
Thursday, Settlemier hit her second grand slam in three games to hit Kansas to a 10-0 victory in the second game of its double-header against Creighton.
"When I came up to bat, I could hear the whole crowd talking home run," Settlemier said. "I was just thinking relax and make contact."
Settlemier did more than make contact as she blasted the first pitch deep over the left field fence for her sixth grand slam and 20th home run of the season.
In the bottom of the third inning, the senior pitcher stepped up to the plate with the bases full and the lavhawks holding a 1-0 lead.

the event did not happen.
Kansas sophomore thrower Egor Agafonov's
The Kansas Relays opened Thursday with the men's hammer throw.
As one of the events to hold tight competition, the event did not disappoint.
The Russian was coming off a huge meet at last week's Mesa Classic where he set the new Kansas hammer throw distance of 228 feet 6 inches. Agafonov didn't mind his lesser performance Thursday, though.
"I'm not upset that I didn't win" he said. "It's just a sport."
Some of Agafonov's throws clipped the net, which was a cause of concern for hammer throw coach Andy Kokhanovsky. The coach said the net was not regulation size for the hammer.
Agafonov
Because of the microburst that hit Lawrence earlier this year, the cage had been moved and interfered with some throws.
"The one he threw and clipped took off at least 7 to 10 feet to his throw." Kokhanovskv said.

"I wasn't expecting to win, that's the God's honest truth," said Welihozkiy. "With Egor coming in at 70.45, I knew this was going to be an all-out war."

Winning the event for the third straight year was Pac-Bay Track Club member Nick Welihozkiy, with a toss of 222 feet 8 inches.

When asked why they are the Kansas Relays, Wellhozkly happily responseu.
When asked why he likes to attend
"My mom and dad attended Kansas and my dad was a hammer throw coach," Wellhozkiy said. "I love Lawrence and consider myself a Jayhawk," the former Stanford Cardinal graduate said.
Kansas senior Sheldon Battle was signed up for the event but did not participate, instead saving his strength for his main events: discus and shot put.
The women's hammer throw took place after the men's and had competition.
Kansas freshman Zlata Tarasova placed second in the hammer throw.
Tanasora is also coming off a strong Mesa Classic event where she broke the Kansas women's record in the hammer throw with a toss of 199 feet 11 inches.

Formidable Texas opponents promise battle

The No. 63 Kansas tennis team will do the Texas Two Step this weekend when it faces Texas A&M on Saturday and Texas on Sunday.
Texas and Texas A&M are tied for second place in the Big 12 with a conference record of 7-2. Texas holds the better overall record at 13-10, while Texas A&M has a record of 12-10.
Kansas comes into the match
notting the No. 8 spot in the conference with an overall record of 13-8, and a conference record of 4-5.
"They are gonna be tough matches," Kansas coach Amy Hall-Holt said. "A&M is always tough, and with Texas being a big powerhouse as if it, we've go to be with our minds and games ready to go to play a tough weekend."
Rachls will need to play its best tennis this weekend to come out victorious in both matches. Texas and Texas A&M are ranked No. 19, and No. 36
in the nation, respectively.
Freshman Ksenia Bukina will hold the No. 1 spot on the team in singles competition, but the proven backbone has been at the No. 2 spot, which sophomore Liza Avdeeva occupies. Before losing to Baylor on April 9, Avdeeva had a team-high 11-game winning streak. Avdeeva currently has won 12 of her last 13 matches.
"I am kind of playing better than last fall, so it's kind of surprising me." Avdeeva said. "I think I'm doing well right now."
Avdeveea's last loss before Baylor was against Texas Tech on March 5 when she lost in two sets.
"Her record shows, she's 7-2 in the Big 12 right now — if she can continue winning out like she has been in the last several matches and winning big points for us and taking us to a different level, she's gonna do well," Hall-Holt said.
Avdeevea's most notable victory came last weekend when Kansas faced Colorado. The Jayhawks were down, 3-2, with only two single matches
left. After losing her first set to the No. 99 singles player, she was down 5-3 in the second set. Avdeeva overcame the deficit to win the second set, and won the third set also to help the team get the victory.
Currently, there are four teams within one game of Kansas in the Big 12 standings. The two matches this weekend will help determine KU's seed in the Big 12 Tournament on April 27-30 in Waco, Texas.

RALEIGH, N.C. — A cab driver who took a Duke University lacrosse player home from a team party said his passenger, now charged with raping an exotic dancer, seemed calm and even jovial that night. But the driver said a second passenger he picked up later was talking about a stripper.
Moez Mostafa said the second passenger spoke about the stripper in a tone that made it look as though someone was hurt.
Defense attorneys have said they have time-stamped photos from the party, bank records, cell phone calls and a taxi driver's statement to support Reade Seligmann's claim that he is innocent of raping the woman on March 13.
Cab driver remembers passengers from party
NCAA
A person close to the case told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Wednesday, that the cell phone records show Seligmann called for a taxi at 12:14 a.m., and that according to sworn testimony he left in the taxi at 12:19 a.m. The bank records show he stopped at an ATM five minutes later, the person added, while information provided by Duke shows Seligmann's ID card was used to enter his dorm at 12:46 a.m.
In an interview on MSNBC, Mostafa said he returned to the house later to pick up another customer. He said he remembered that person saying the girl was just a stripper.
Pitcher
CONTINUED FROM 1B
"She just gets hyped when the bases are loaded," junior pitcher Kassie Humphreys said. "If I was pitching against her in that situation, I'd just walk her."
With the bases loaded, Settlemier is 7-for-8 with six grand slams on the year.
"I knew her stats were good but not that good." Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said. "It's like that's where she zeroes in the best. I think she believes she can take it out of the yard in every at bat."
And just like Ruth, Settlemier did a fine job pitching as well. The right-hander pitched four out of the five innings and didn't allow a run, while striking out six.
"It was a great day pitching for us." Bunge said.
"We're pitching as good as anybody right now."
Even though Settlemier delivered the striking blow against the Blue Jays, the rest of the Jayhawk offense performed well too, lighting up Creighton pitcher Cassidy Nee for nine hits. Humphreys drove in the first run on an RBI single in the second inning to give Kansas (27-20, 5-6) the lead.
"Team hitting as a whole has improved," Settiermier said. "We're playing with a lot more confidence since we can score runs early."
In the fourth inning the Jayhawks put across five more runs, including freshman third baseman Val Chapple's two-run round tripper, at which Bunge shouted, "Can we save any for the weekend?"
The reason for Bunge's joking plea is that the Jayhawks square off against No. 2 Texas at Arrocha Ballpark this weekend. The Longhorns lead the Big 12 in ERA, giving up only .55 runs per game.
"We have a lot of respect for both of their pitchers," Bunge said. "It'll be a dogfight, but we've been there before."
Softball Notes:
■ Kansas won the first game of the doubleheader
■ South Carolina punishing us the victory.
In their last four games, the Jayhawks have 41 hits.
Twenty minutes before the first pitch on Saturday, Kansas will retire the jerseys of former third baseman Camille Spitaleri and outfielder Sheila Connolly.

Kansas State stars strikingly similar
By SHANN SHROYER

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
Kansas pitchers will face a two-headed monster this weekend against Kansas State. Senior outfielders Barrett Rice and Joe Roundy will likely hit
and Joe Round
back-to-back in the heart of the Kansas State batting lineup.
On the stat sheet, Rice and Roundy boast similar numbers. On the field, the two give pitchers a sense of déjà vu, hitting one after the other from the right side of the plate, sporting similar goates and shaggy hair.
UTAH
STATE
UNION
Rice
Roundy
"I couldn't tell you." Roundy said, when
asked what differences he could find in his and Rice's playing styles. "I honestly couldn't tell you that."
Rice and Roundy have combined to lead the team in eight offensive categories. Rice leads with a .424 batting average and 15 doubles, which are also tops in the Big 12. Roundy has a team best 55 hits, six home runs, 44 RBI, 89 total bases and a .664 slugging percentage. The two are tied for the team lead in triples with two each.
Even their coach, Brad Hill, has noticed similarities in the two. The only difference he noticed was that Roundy struggled a bit when he first arrived, but through hard work became the hitter he was. As for Rice, Hill said he made the transition nearly flawlessly.
"Barrett, it took him about
three or four weeks last year and he got in a pretty good groove," Hill said. "He was a pretty natural hitter when he came to us."
Their backgrounds are fairly similar as well. Rice transferred to Kansas State as a junior after playing two seasons at El Paso Community College. Roundy also transferred in after two years of fuco ball in the south-west. He played at Scottsdale Community College in Arizona.
Roundy said the two actually played against one another while at their junior colleges, but they never met until they arrived at Kansas State. When it came time to transfer, though, the two were obviously on the same page.
"They were both fairly heavily recruited and my guys who recruited them did a great job of bringing them in and showing them exactly what Kansas State was all about," Hill said. "They liked what they saw and so we got them."
Rice and Roundy continued to play together after last season. Roundy said the two ended up playing ball together last summer in the Northwoods League in Waterloo, Iowa. In addition to working well together on the field, the two get along off the field.
"We're pretty good buddies, we hang out a lot," Roundy said.
Although the two are close friends, both are aware which player is producing better numbers. But the competition is friendly.
"We actually joke with each other at the end of the day," Roundy said. "He'll come up to me — he's done this the last few weeks — and say 'What'd you go for today?' just as a little joke and it's been fun."

Lacrosse players receive honors
CLUB SPORTS

It has been a week to remember for the Kansas women's lacrosse team. While the team prepared for its upcoming playoff game this weekend against Lindenwood, it learned that several players had been recognized with postseason honors for their work this season.
Lisa Allen and Bitz Marohl were both named to the inaugural Central Plains Women's Lacrosse League All-League first team. It was the highest level of recognition awarded by the league.
Lisa Allen, leading scorer and team captain for the Jayhawks,
was excited after receiving the All-League decoration.
"Being recognized personally is an honor. I put a lot of hard work into lacrosse, and it is always rewarding to see the results," the Highland Ranch, Colo., sophomore said.
Marhol, Wahpeton, N.D., freshman, expressed her gratitude for the All-League honor and thanked her teammates for the successful season.
"Our team could not have done this without everyone's contribution, and especially our dedicated coaches. It takes more than just the select few that got voted for this honor; it is the whole team that deserves to be recognized," Marhol said.
Kansas coach David Wiley praised Marhol's ability to acquire the skills of lacrosse so quickly, because she began playing competitively last August. "She has a very unorthodox stick style, leading many opponents to believe she's an easy mark to steal the ball from, but her speed and field sense quickly makes it clear that getting the ball away from her will be a difficult task." Wiley said.
Allen and Marhof were also named to the 1st Team All-West Division along with Crystal Thomas, a freshman midfielder from Highlands Ranch, Colo. Allen and Thomas provided a lethal combination for the Jayhawks on offense this season,
finishing first and second respectively in goals scored.
Other Jayhawks receiving postseason recognition included Emily Ratzlaff, Kristen Sheahen, and Celie Wall, who were all named to the Second Team All-West Division.
The Jayhawks will travel to St. Charles, Mo., to take on Lindenwood University, but the players and coaches are optimistic about their chances. Allen said a positive attitude would be crucial for success against the talented Lindenwood squad, but said that if Kansas brought the mindset to take care of business the team felt it could win.

Goldzone II impressive even to casual fans
For one weekend, track and field will come out from the shadows and get the credit and publicity it deserves. Tomorrow's Goldzone II will be one of the most outstanding events in its sport since the Olympics in Athens.

TIM HALL
thall@kansan.com
Thirty-six Olympians and more than 100 major champions will compete in the second-ever Goldzone Saturday from 2-5 p.m. in Memorial Stadium. This event attracted more than 30,000 fans last year and is expected to attract way more Saturday.
the 1500 meters. I'd say that Prefontaine guad, and I be wrong.
$ P _ {1} $
Before I go on, I will admit that I am not as schooled in the sport of track and field as I am in football, baseball, basketball, golf and badminton. I am not the guy to ask if you want to know the name of the Olympic record-holder in
about for the normal human. The athletes in Saturday afternoon's events stopped being human when they became freaks-of-athletes. People who can run 100 meters in 10 seconds aren't human. People who can run 110 meters while repeatedly jumping over metal objects aren't human either.
The first thing that amazes me about these athletes is how athletic they are. When was the last time you ran a mile in less than four minutes? It just insane to think
But this is my point exactly: I am not spilling over with knowledge of track and field, but I am still primed and ready to go out and watch the Goldzone II. Judging by how many people went last year, I don't think I'm the only one who feels that way.
But the true appreciation for what these athletes can do is something that's more visible live on TV. When I watched the Olympics on TV I didn't appreciate the speed and athleticism of the athletes. But when you go to an event with world-class track stars, you really get an idea of how quick they are.
Even though I am not a guy who knows oodles about track and field, meet director Tim
Weaver did a great job in getting the best-known track stars in the world to come to Lawrence. He got Maurice Greene, Justin Gatlin, Shawn Crawford, Allyson Felix, Muna Lee and Allen Johnson.
The men's 100-meter dash will be as good as it gets. The 2000 gold medalist at Sydney, Greene, will face off against the 2004 gold medalist at Athens, Galin. It will last only 10 seconds, but that's the race everyone is waiting to see. So whether you're a track fan, or even if you don't know anything about it, you won't want to miss a meet that has 36 Olympic athletes competing in it. If you do miss this one, the next best one isn't until Beijing.

"Winning would make me happy," Tarasova said, "But I'm staying consistent which is good." Kokhanovsky said Tarasova was well-prepared for the Relays.
"She has been competing against the best in the nation in the Kansas State and Oklahoma State throwers," Kokhanovsky said. "Being consistent and throwing over 190 feet is what's important."
"Shelldon and Cody have made throwing a lot better with
their advice and competition," Agafonov said of Battle and Cody Rogers.
"They'll both be back next year," Kokhanovsky said about Agafonov and Tarasova. "But they'll take first place."

Humphreys
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
following the team splitting a series with Baylor earlier in the month.
Humphreys was in a stretch earlier in the month where she only allowed two hits in 24 innings. It was during that stretch that Humphreys won the Big 12 Pitcher of the Week award in consecutive weeks.
At the same time, Humphreys' name is climbing up the Kansas career pitching records. Just this season, she has jumped two spots on the all-time strikeout list, moving up to sixth place with 431 strikeouts.
Unlike baseball, where pitchers often get five days rest in between starts, softball pitchers could start on back-to-back days, like Humphreys did against Texas Tech.
gainst teams With a two-pitcher rotation, Humphreys and senior Serena Settlemier rack up large pitch totals in a short period of time.
"The good thing about softball is that you can go back-to-back days," Humphreys said. "I threw a workout yesterday in the bullpen and felt fine."
After the weekend sweep, Humphreys had three days rest between starts. She recorded another victory Wednesday night against Creighton, bringing her mark closer to an even .500 at 12-13.
When she takes the mound this weekend against No. 2 Texas, she'll have little reason to worry.
No. 2 Texas, she'll have little reason to worry.
"Texas, its a big enough challenge in itself," Humphreys said. "We had them in close games last year, it's going to be a really tight ballgame."
Osterman
Osterman became the first softball player to appear on the cover of the weekly sports magazine.

"It was fun, especially since I hadn't made a huge name for myself yet," Osterman said. "The biggest thing was having women's athletics on the cover though. It was an amazing accomplishment."
was in chinning After blowing away hitters in her own country, Osterman had the opportunity to take her warp-speed pitches global when the USA Softball Team gave her the opportunity to represent the squad in the 2004 Athens Olympics. Osterman, the only collegiate player selected to the team, didn't allow a run, led the team in strikeouts and helped the U.S. to a gold medal.
"It was fun to represent my country and to be a part of it," Osterman said. That learning experience at a young age really elevated my game."
When the gold medalist returned home to Texas, she won her second Softball Collegiate Player of the Year Award, nabbed an ESPY award for Top Female College Athlete, and turned the 'Horns around from a 24-29 record in her absence to Big 12 champions and competitors in the College World Series again.
This season has been no different as Osterman has Texas (43-4, 9-1) atop the Big 12 standings and ranked second in
the country, a prime position for another championship run.
Osterman became the first softball player to appear on the cover of the weekly sports magazine.

Even with all of her fame and accomplishments, Osterman is modest, but at the same time outgoing and engaging. But when she first came to Austin, Osterman wasn't always the most pleasant person. Clark said the team used to tease her about how her eyebrows revealed the type of mood she was in.
"If they were in a down position, we could tell Cat was in a bad mood," Clark said. "If they were in a neutral position we knew she was in a good mood. Sometimes we'd call her Oscar, like the character on Sesame Street."
But as her game developed, her personality developed as well, to the point that Clark said she's always in a good mood and jokes around with her teammates constantly.
Osterman is determined to end her softball season on top.
"I need to go out there and do my best," Osterman said, "because I want to bring us a national title."

Edited by Frank Tankard
The 6-foot-8 floppy-haired, mustachioed forward, who led Division I in scoring last season at 28.1 points per game, is a diabetic and said uncertainty over his future health prospects was a factor in his decision.
"It's been a great process so far. It's been fun, but I've decided to try to take my game to the next level and further my career as a basketball player." Morrison said at a campus news conference.
Morrison said he had a verbal agreement "etched in stone" with Chicago-based agent Mark Bartelstein, who also represents former Gonzaga stars Dan Dickau and Blake Stepp, and Bulls guard Jannero Pargo, brother of Gonzaga's Jeremy Pargo. That agreement means Morrison
will not be able to change his mind and return for his senior year. The West Coast Conference player of the year, Morrison edged Duke's J.J. Redick for this year's national scoring title. He finished second to Redick for the Naismith and John R. Wooden Awards for college basketball's player of the year.
Gonzaga coach Mark Few said his staff and team were "ecstatic" for Morrison.
Morrison surpassed the college accomplishments of Gonzaga great John Stockton. But it remains to be seen if he can have the same impact on the NBA, as critics have complained about his defense and downplayed his passing and rebounding abilities.
There is no doubt Morrison can shoot, making nearly 50 percent of his shots, including 43 percent of 3-pointers, even with defenders hanging all over him. Morrison drew comparisons to Larry Bird, for a similar high release on his jump shot, and Pete Maravich and other scoring greats of the past.

Annual Sunflower Series
KU First Pitch
AT A GLANCE
Despite a two to one loss to Oklahoma State last weekend in Stillwater, Okla., Kansas is still at the fourth spot in the Big 12 Conference standings. This should be the last weekend for Kansas (27-15, 7-8) without starting second baseman Ryne Price. The sophomore is continuing his recovery from wrist surgery.
LAST TIME OUT
The Jayhawks spent the week at home after returning from Oklahoma on Sunday to play Missouri State and Tabor. On Tuesday, the Jayhawks erupted for a season-high 19 runs scored on the Bears and took the victory, 19-7. Kansas defeated Tabor Wednesday night, 14-4.
PLAYER TO WATCH Jared Schweitzer. The senior infielder adjusted from his
100
usual first baseman's spot to filling in on second while Price recovers from injury. Schweitzer has made the adjustment look comfortable. He has
been healing from a dislocated shoulder he suffered against Wichita State but is healthy now. Schweizer is lethal with the bat. In his last five games, the infielder hit 450, scored eight times and drove in five runs.
FIVE QUICK FACTS
11 — The number of games, including tonight's, that the Jayhawks have played in the past two weeks.
29 — Kansas has hit 29 more home runs than Kansas State.
33 — The amount of KU runs scored in its last two games.
93 The gap in strikeouts between Kansas hitters and Kansas State hitters, with Kansas on the losing end.
0 — The number of home runs allowed by senior closer Don Czyz, the leader in Big 12 saves (13), appearances (23) and ERA (1.30).
LOOKING FORWARD
Kansas must now rechannel its energy from the middle of the week in the quest to pick up its third Big 12 series victory this season. This series against Kansas State may be one of the most important of the year.
KEY TO VICTORY
Pitching. Lately, the starting weekend rotation has slipped in its effectiveness and consistency. Junior pitcher Sean Land will bring his intimidating fastball and senior pitcher Ricky Fairchild will try and work out of jams by creating fly balls. Senior pitcher Kodiak Quick and Czyz are a lethal combination on Sundays — the Jayhawks have not lost on Sunday for four consecutive weeks. Kansas also has to watch the longevity of Czyz's recent pitching appearances. He threw four innings in his closing shift last Sunday against Oklahoma State.
Kansas vs. Kansas State 7 p.m., Friday, April 21, Hoglund Ballbark KANSAS KANSAS STATE
OFFENSE:
KU KU KU
Last weekend, Kansas dropped its first Big 12 Conference series in three weeks. The Jayhawks were no match for the hitter-friendly confines of Allie P. Reynolds Stadium in Stillwater, Okla., but not for lack of offense. Even when losing to Oklahoma State by 12 runs last Saturday, the Jayhawks still watched six different players in their lineup homer in the defeat. While the team brings heavy bats — with 49 home runs this season — it doesn't always use them the most productive way possible — with 295 strikeouts. In the team's pair of midweek games, however, the Jayhawks showed no mercy, crushing Missouri State and Tabor by at least 10 runs apiece.
DEFENSE:
KU
KU

When Kansas gets the opportunity to face off against opponents like Missouri State and Tabor in midweek match-ups, Coach Ritch Price takes it as a chance to work his younger,
K
less experienced players into the lineup. In as players subbed in and changed positions, the defense remained solid and the Jayhawks committed just one error in a pair of games that saw a combined 12 substitutes and six pitching changes on Tuesday and Wednesday. Kansas was able to display some of its younger pitching this week, but tonight the weekend rotation will step back in. Junior lefty Sean Land (4-6,5.17) goes tonight, senior righty Ricky Fairchild (4-4,5.40) on Saturday and senior right-hander Kodiak Quick (7-2,3.28) will handle the series finale.

Price uses the opportunity to play all of the players who see more bench time than playing time, but it's not always possible. Price, however, has made it clear with both his words and his actions that if the opportunity comes up he will rest a starter to get a younger, less experienced player some at bats. This weekend will not allow for many chances to use anybody but the best, as the Wildcats look to win their first series against the Jayhawks in three years. Kansas has won five of their past six meetings.
The Kansas State offense doesn't do anything great, but it can do a little bit of everything. The Wildcats have the fourth-highest team batting average in the Big 12 (.322), but are seventh in home runs (20) and sixth in RBI (144) and stolen bases (50) — partly because they have played only 34 games, compared to other teams in the conference that have played more than 40 games. Individually, senior outfielders Barrett Rice and Joe Roundy can do some damage. Rice leads the Big 12 with a .424 batting average and is tied for the lead in doubles with 15. Roundy is third in the conference with a .410 batting average and tied for fourth in RBI with 44.
DEFENSE:
Kansas State's .972 fielding percentage is tied for the third best in the Big 12. The Wildcats are averaging just over one error per game with 37 and just under one double play per game with 30. Senior catcher Brandon Farr is one of the best in the conference at keeping the ball from reaching the backstop with only four passed
balls. However, he has allowed 30 stolen bases, compared to the three base runners he's thrown out. Kansas State has a decent ERA at 3.89, but ranks in the bottom half of the Big 12 with 7.12 strikeouts per nine innings. The Wildcat staff has great control, though, with only 76 walks, the fewest in the conference.

AT A GLANCE
The Wildcats are still looking for their first Big 12 series victory, Kansas State (23-10-1, 3-8-1) began the season 17-1, including a 16-game winning streak, but have since gone 6-9-1, Kansas State managed Big 12 victories against Missouri, Nebraska and Texas Tech. Texas dominated Kansas State, though, outscoring it 27-13 in a three-game sweep.
LAST TIME OUT
Kansas State played at Wichita State on Tuesday and fell 7-3 to the Shockers. The Wildcats had only four hits in the game, but one belonged to senior catcher Brandon Farr. It extended his hit streak to 17 games. Freshman right-handler Todd Vogel had a rough start, allowing four runs on six hits and a walk in just two innings.

and riding a Big 12 seasonbest 17-game hitting streak.
FIVE QUICK FACTS
.424 — Senior outfielder Barrett Rice's Big 12-leading batting average.
1 — The number of victories Kansas State has in its last eight Big 12 games.
86 The percent of the time Kansas State is successful at stealing bases. The rest of the teams in the Big 12 are successful between 70 and 79 percent of the time.
24 The number of years since Kansas State ended a game in a tie before last Saturday's 11-11 tie with Texas Tech.
1990 The last season Kansas State had a winning conference record.
LOOKING FORWARD
Only Texas A&M's 3-12 Big 12 record is worse than Kansas State's. If the Wildcats lose the series this weekend, their series against the Aggies in May might decide the team that gets stuck in the base-ment of the Big 12. If Kansas State wins this weekend, it will still have an outside chance at passing Missouri to make the conference tournament.
KEY TO VICTORY
Kansas State batters don't strike out often and Kansas pitchers don't record many strikeouts, so the Wildcats will need to continue to put the ball in play and manufacture runs. Kansas State pitchers can't allow Kansas hitters, who posted eight home runs at Oklahoma State last weekend, to rack up runs.

No. 4 Nebraska (30-5, 10-2) at No. 5 Texas (27-13, 12-2)
This will be one of the premiere series of the regular season and is a College World Series match-up waiting to happen. Nebraska is the defending Big 12 Champion while Texas is the defending National Champion. On paper, Nebraska looks to be in prime position to win the series and overtake Texas in the Big 12 standings. The Huskers are on a 12-game winning streak, have the second highest batting average (.326), the second most home runs (50), the second most stolen bases (63) and the lowest team ERA (2.98) in the Big 12. Texas lost on Tuesday to Texas-San Antonio, but has swept three of its five Big 12 series this season. Compared to Nebraska, Texas has a .290 team batting average, 34 home runs, 47 stolen bases and a 3.71 team ERA. Nevertheless, the Longhorns have only two losses at home and haven't lost a weekend series since early March.

Oklahoma State (22-12, 5-7) at Missouri (17-18, 6-9)
Oklahoma State and Missouri currently occupy the seventh and eighth spots, respectively, in the Big 12. Both teams are fighting to stay in the field for the Big 12 Tournament coming up next month. The Cowboys haven't returned from a road trip without a bitter taste in their mouth since the first weekend of the season when they won two of three in the Jaguar Invitational. Since then, Oklahoma State is 1-9 away from Stillwater, Okla. The Cowboys will travel to Columbia, Mo., after winning four of their last five. Missouri came into the season with high expectations, but its season has spiraled downward ever since. Junior right-hander and preseason All-American Max Scherzer continues to have arm issues and is listed as questionable this weekend. The Tigers had lost nine straight games before a victory over St. Louis on Wednesday.

No. 23 Oklahoma (29-10, 8-4) at Texas Tech (26-14-1, 6-7-1)
This series is key for each school. Oklahoma is on Nebraska's heels in the Big 12. If Nebraska gets swept by Texas and Oklahoma can sweep Texas Tech, Oklahoma would move up to a two-way tie for second in the conference. Texas Tech is sitting at sixth in the Big 12, but a series victory could move it as high as fourth, depending on how Kansas and Baylor do this weekend. Oklahoma comes in with a seven-game winning streak and has won nine of its last 10 games, including a victory over No. 3 Rice on Tuesday. Sophomore Joe Dungan led the way on offense for the Sooners going 3-for-5 with two runs and three RBI with two solo home runs. Texas Tech hasn't won a Big 12 series since it took two of three from Baylor three weeks ago, but it knocked off No. 10 Arizona State on Monday, Junior lefty Aaron Odom shut Arizona state battles down, allowing just two runs in six innings. The effort helped him earn Big 12 Co-Pitcher of the Week honors.

Late last night, before today's Kansan went to press, power went out around Lawrence. While details are sketchy as of print time, it seems that areas north of Ninth Street were unaffected.The cause remains unknown.A representative from Westar Energy said calls began coming in before midnight and were still streaming in at 12:30. A severe line of storms with hail larger than golf balls moved through the area about 10 p.m.Windows in at least one campus building were broken and students reported damage to their vehicles, including Pat Bruin, St. Louis sophomore, with a broken windshield.

Chancellor Robert Hemenway and Athletics Director Lew Perkins speak at a press conference in Hadi Auditorium Friday morning. The press conference addressed Kansas' self-reported NCAA violations and other non-reported allegations.
NCAA cites University, finds two violations
BY ERIC JORGENSEN
ejorgensen@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
The NCAA completed its investigation of violations allegedly committed by the Athletics Department and found two more violations including a "lack of institutional control."
The NCAA also stated during the same time frame that the University did not act efficiently in reporting violations.
The NCAA cited that from August 1997 to December 2002, the institution did not have a compliance auditor on three occasions, a total of 20 months.
The University failed to "create and maintain an atmosphere for compliance," and "failed to report NCAA rules violations," among others.
Athletics Director Lew Perkins said before his arrival the department was understaffed, including in the NCAA compliance department. He said one his first moves as athletics director was to hire new staff and beef up the department's workforce.
The two violations that turned up in the notice were not in the self-report.
The other violation was the improper benefits received by sophomore men's basketball player Darnell Jackson from donor Don Davis.
Already under self-imposed punishments, the University must decide whether to impose sanctions on itself after the allegations.
The next step for the University is to respond to the "Notice of Allegations." The University will meet with the NCAA Committee on Infractions on Aug. 13. After that meeting, it will be determined if the NCAA will impose penalties in addition to the ones already handed down by Cancellor Robert Hemenway. Hemenway placed the entire department on a two-year probation.
Rick Evrard, former NCAA compliance official, said there was a chance for additional penalties to come, because of the additional allegations.
Evward said the penalties should be administered by the institution. Regardless, he said there was a chance the NCAA could bring more punishment because of the allegations against Davis and Jackson.

Jacobs said that she did not know what caused the initial altercation, but said that after her friend was hit with the beer bottle, four or five more fights broke out.

Abe and Jake's was playing host to what it billed as the Kansas Relays after party. Cover was $10. A bar patron asked Phillips if he had been injured and Phillips said no.
As for Jacobs, she and her friends would be seeking a new place to hang out next Saturday night.
"This is my first and last time," she said.
Jacobs said that she had been to the club a few times, but for her other friend, this was her first time at Abe and Jake's.

POW-WOW
Tribes compete in Robinson

The thunderous beat of 10 mallets on a three-foot diameter drum and the unison singing of the 10 men who sat around the drum shook the entire main gymnasium at Robinson Center Saturday afternoon at the University of Kansas pow-wow.
The pow-wow brought people of all ages, from all tribes, from all over the United States to compete in three categories of dancing: fancy, traditional and grass.
Kyle Funmaker, a 19-year-old freshman at Haskell Indian Nations University, said he'd been fancy dancing all of his life. His parents travel across the United States to dance at powwows, and he does the same in the summers.
He said his mother made his costume; she hand-threaded the thousands of beads that covered his entire chest and his headband that accented the rest of his costume. It was light
"I'll do this all my life," said the self-taught dancer from Wisconsin Dells, Wis. from the Ho-chunk tribe.

blue, dark blue and orange. It also had bear claws and a bear in the center of his chest, representing the bear clan, of which he is a member.
He wore white fur leggings that covered his shins with bells around
the top, just below his knees. Moccasins and silver streamers hung from his shoulders. He said it was a typical fancy-dance costume. The costumes have evolved because Native Americans at pow-wows are always trying
to outdo one another with their costumes. It's a competitive event because there's usually around $1,500 in prize money, he said.

Mumps cases reach triple digits
More than 100 people in Douglas County have the mumps.
BY CATHERINE ODSON
codson@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
The spring outbreak has provided experience dealing with infectious diseases without the potential for severe complications and fatalities. Patricia Denning, chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said she thought that Watkins had communicated well with students, University of
The number of mumps cases in Douglas County totaled 102 on Friday, with the majority of cases occurring in people ages 19 to 26 years old, said Sheryl Tirol-Goodwin, spokeswoman for the Lawrence-Douglas County Health Department. Seventy-six of those cases were University students.
ficials and parents. However, she was frustrated by infected students' lack of response to medical recommendations.
MUMPS COUNT
Students, who often felt indestructible, she said, would often disregard recommendations such as isolating themselves because their schedules were packed.
Here are the number of mumps cases as of Friday afternoon. These numbers include probable and confirmed cases.
Total cases in Douglas County: 102
Total cases among KU students: 76
Sources: Sheryl Tiol-Goodwin, Lawrence Douglas County Health Department; Lynn Bretz, University Relations
But with more serious diseases — including measles and a potentially lethal pandemic flu — following those recommendations could be the difference between life and death, she said.
"Sometimes, we as adults have to put aside our personal agendas for the good of the group," she said.
In the future, Denning said, Watkins would try to distribute clearer information to students, which might help students follow doctors' recommendations.
Tirol-Goodwin said the county health department was handling this outbreak the same way the department had treated infectious disease outbreaks in the past. The department followed a "long-standing protocol," she said, that immediately informed the public to keep the disease from unnecessarily spreading. She said she could not think of anything the department hadn't done.
Mining
Mumps caused a disaster drill planned for this Wednesday at Watkins to be postponed for the fall. Denning said planning the event would have placed an additional burden on a busy staff.

Bash celebrates African culture
BY ANNE WELTMER
aweltmer@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Four men from Phi Beta Sigma fraternity stepped down the aisle of Woodruff Auditorium singing a cappella and chanting in harmonies about their fraternity Saturday evening as part of the African Student Association's KALA-BASH in the Kansas Union.
The stepping demonstration was one of 17 parts of the KALA-BASH, which is aimed to teach students and Lawrence residents about African traditions, said Paul Oruoch, Nairobi, Kenya, sophomore.
When they got on stage, they explained the dance they had just preformed had roots in African and Christian traditions, but had evolved into a competitive musical style with the Temptations and other African American musical groups. Now, it's a right of passage for historically African American fraternities and sororities.
He said the media usually gave Africa a bad reputation by
showing only poverty and suffering. The KALA-BASH was to "show students what Africa is all about," he said. "This is the good side of it."
The event also included dances, singing and a fashion show. The KALA-BASH is an annual event by the African
Student Association, a student organization that has been in existence since the 1960s.
The African Student Association members put together the KALA-BASH on a low budget without

One part of the event was a man from Rutgers University reciting poetry. His tone fluctuated from emotional to angry as he talked about his experiences being African

was a way for the incarcerated people of Africa to tell their story.
Men wearing patchwork skirts and bands around their heads danced and leapt around the stage during the Shamwari Tamba dance. Their broad, sweeping movements was in unison with the heavy drum beat.
Then, a woman wearing a sparkling white blouse and black skirt with a red wrap over it walked solemnly down the aisle singing. She got to the stage and praised God. Some audience members responded with "Amen." She sang a "halleujah song" and danced with a scarf in each hand.
All of the events were created to share their culture with other students and for them to celebrate their own culture.
Oruoch said he came to the United States because he could get the best education for a reasonable price. After he gets his engineering degree, he plans to move home to Kenya. Staying involved in African Student Association has kept him involved with his culture.

Violence greets new politicians working on government
BAGHDAD, Iraq — Insurgents killed three American soldiers in the Baghdad area Sunday and fired mortars near the Defense Ministry in a spree of violence that killed at least 27 Iraqis as politicians began work on forming a new government.
The largest Sunni Arab party raised new allegations of sectarian killings, one of the urgent issues facing the new leadership.
BY LEE KEATH THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
U. S. Ambassador Zalmay Khalilzad said the next government must decommission
sectarian militias and integrate them into the national armed forces, warning that the armed groups represent the "infrastructure for civil war."
Sunday's deaths raised to eight the number of U.S. troops killed in the past two days.
At least 61 American service members have died in April, putting it on track to pass January, with 62, as the deadliest month this year. It represents a jump over March, with 31 deaths, was the lowest monthly toll for the Americans since February 2004.
The three soldiers were killed Sunday when their vehicle hit
Drive-by shooters in a nearby district gunned down a schoolteacher and a car mechanic in his shop.
Twenty-seven Iraqis also died in other violence Sunday, including seven killed when three mortars hit just outside the heavily guarded Green Zone in Baghdad, not far from Iraq's Defense Ministry. Police Lt. Maitham Abdul-Razzaq said it was hard to identify the dead
a roadside bomb northwest of capital, the U.S. command said.
because the powerful blasts and shrapnel severed their limbs and destroyed their identification.
In the evening, another mortar hit a home in southern Baghdad, killing a man and wounding two of his relatives. Drive-by shooters in a nearby district gunned down a school-teacher outside her home and a car mechanic in his shop.
At least eight other mortars or rockets exploded about the same time on the other side of the Tigris River in central Baghdad, without injuries, police said.
The violence underlined the challenge as prime minister-designate Jawad al-Maliki began on Sunday the tough task of assembling a Cabinet out of Iraq's Shiite, Sunni and Kurdish parties.
President Bush called al-Maliki, the Iraqi president and the parliament speaker and urged the quick formation of a coalition government.
Al-Maliki, a Shiite, has 30 days to do it, but the parties are under pressure to move quickly without the often intractable haggle over ministries.
The United States is hoping the new government will unify Iraq.

Pow-wow
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
For the KU pow-wow, the prize money would come from Indian taco sales by Haskell students and the T-shirt sales by KU's First Nations Student Association.
KU students from First Nations Student Association planned the 18th annual event.
Linford Brown, Gallup, N.M., sophomore, said he graduated from a two-year program at Haskell and came to the University of Kansas to study nursing. He joined First Nations Student Association because it was the only Native American group on campus he was eligible to join. All of the other groups had specifics, such as a certain major. Ever since he joined last semester, he's been juggling planning the pow-wow and his demanding schoolwork, he said.
"I've never done anything like this before. I think it's pretty rough," he said, but he said he wanted to do it to encourage other Native Americans to come to the University and take advantage of the opportunities it offers.
He said after he graduates,he wants to move back home and take care of the elders on his Navajo reservation.
Merle Anderson Sr., an assistant basketball coach
at Haskell, said he moved to Lawrence six years ago from Arizona to be closer to his grandchildren. He was one of a handful of venders selling jewelry, T-shirts and other trinkets around the edge of the gym.
He used a lot of turquoise, silver and coral, the traditional materials of his tribe, the Navajo. It takes him two to three hours to make a necklace because he buys all of his stones raw from online venders and then grinds them to shape and polishes each of them himself. He had several buffalo beads, and others of different shapes and sizes that he'd made himself.
The first time I ever tried it, it was so hard because I was learning, but now it's so easy," he said about carving inch-long buffalo beads.
His jewelry's price is based on the time it takes to make it, which range from $20 to $144.
Everyone was up and about shopping, eating and preparing their costumes for the Grand Entry. Once the announcer handed the microphone to another man to say a prayer, it became silent. By the time the color guard was leading out the long line of dancers into the clearing in the middle of the gym, everyone was gathered around to watch the main event begin.

Following the announcement of the violations, many restrictions were placed upon the women's basketball and football teams. These included limiting off-campus recruiting visits for women's basketball and lowering the limit of the number players signed from two-year institutions for football.
"We set very high standards for ourselves at the University of Kansas," Hemenway said.
Hemenway acknowledged that the University had fallen short of its high standards. He said he and Perkins had worked together to fix those problems.
"Winning is more than just numbers on the scoreboard," Perkins said.
He stressed that the department must comply with every NCAA rule and ensure the academic success of the athletes.
One of the allegations the department is supposed to respond to is a graduate assistant football coach who arranged for a prospective athlete to take an math exam without the supervision of a proctor. Another is an allegation that a graduate assistant for football provided answers to questions from a Geology 101 exam for prospective players.
There are numerous other football allegations the University will have to respond to concerning recruits and the handling of players. Though assistant coaches committed these violations, much of the blame may fall on the shoulders of football coach Mark Mangino. The department denied Mangino administered these acts that led to the infractions.
"I'm a firm believer Mark did not know this was going on," Perkins said.
The University must also respond to the allegation that men's graduating basketball players from 1988-2003 had received gifts of cash and clothing from donors Dana Anderson, Joan Edwards and Bernard Morgan, according to the department releases.
The NCAA acknowledged numerous smaller violations committed by many of the University's teams, including the track and soccer team.

Bush speaks to crowd in California
By JENNIFER LOVEN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TWENTYNINE PALMS, Calif. — President Bush on Sunday called Iraq's top leaders to congratulate him on breaking a political impasse and urge the quick formation of a coalition government.
Bush said he told President Jalal Talabani, Prime Minister-designate Jawad al-Maliki and parliament Speaker Mahmud al-Mashhadani that they have a duty to improve the lives of Iraqis, defeat the insurgency and unite the country.
"They have awesome responsibilities to their people," Bush told military families in the mess hall at the Marine Corps Air Ground Center.
The Iraqi leaders "expressed their deep appreciation for the United States of America and
our soldiers," Bush said as he told the audience about three calls he had made early Sunday.
White House spokesman Scott McClellan told reporters that Bush encouraged the leaders, especially al-Maliki, to act quickly and pick a Cabinet.
Bush also told al-Maliki he was encouraged by the Iraqi's pledge to select capable representatives for his Cabinet.
The spokesman said Bush praised al-Maliki, a Shiite who was a consensus nominee for prime minister, for signaling he was prepared to crack down on Sunni insurgents and Shiite militias responsible for the increasing sectarian violence that has threatened to push Iraq into civil war.
The president stood in a cafeteria line before having lunch
with several hundred Marines. After the meal, he celebrated the political progress in Iraq. Al-Maliki was picked for the post on Saturday, ending months of political deadlock.
"Yesterday was an important day, but I recognize that we still have more work to do," Bush said. "Democracy in Iraq will be a major blow to the terrorists who want to do us harm."
Bush was enthusiastically received by Marines at this military base in the California desert. He attended services in the Protestant chapel before lunch.
"These are historic times, and your service makes me incredibly proud."
"Because of your service we're defeating an enemy overseas so we do not have to face them here at home," Bush said in the mess hall.

OUR OPINION
Hashinger's new look will change residents
The renovations at Hashinger Hall are nearing completion. This semester marks the last that the hall will be empty of students. It reopens in the coming fall.
Numerous improvements have been made to the hall during its renovation. An expanded theater, new dining facilities and improved lobbies and study spaces are just a few of the changes that will update Hashinger and will be welcome to returning residents currently in McCollum. But the hall will not be the same place when the residents return or after they have graduated.
The improvements to the theater and other areas dedicated to the performing and creative arts will foster that traditional aspect of the hall's residents, but other changes may do the opposite. Students will be more self-sufficient with the addition of sinks in rooms. Repainting will cover the murals and other artwork that past residents have left as their legacy. The building will be the same, but yet a different place.
Issue: Hashinger Hall renovations
Stance: Important updates and improvements will leave an indelible mark on residents.
Change will come gradually, of course. The Hashinger residents living in McCollum as part of the Home Away From Hash program are guaranteed spots in the hall when it reopens in the fall. They will bring back what they remember of the old Hashinger, but they will graduate and future residents will have a stronger influence on the future atmosphere on the hall.
Hashinger was in need of renovations. It will be more energy efficient and better serve the needs of the students who call it home. But those changes will come at the price of part of the identity associated with the hall.
Ty beaver for the editorial board
LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Catholic church not meant to condemn
In response to Richard Martinez's article, I would like to clarify a few points from the perspective of a 20-year-old cradle Catholic.
First, I would like to say that I agree that an institution that condemns women and homosexuals should be subject to scrutiny and critical evaluation. The Catholic Church, however, does not condemn these people. We treat them as we would any other human being, though we do not condone women being ordained as priests or homosexual intercourse.
The Vatican has never asked Catholics to follow any of the teachings it puts forth blindly, for that matter. It is that belief that breeds people who unfortunately give Catholics a bad name, and misunderstandings about what the truth behind Catholic teachings are. Martinez's closing question as to whether the opinions expressed were the thoughts of the writer or of the writer's priest brings up a good point. No one should follow any teaching on "blind faith." The Catholic Church does not put
forth any teachings without in-depth reasoning behind it, and fully encourages its followers to learn the "why" of the faith. Catholics are not meant to be dumb animals, but free thinkers who strive for the betterment of themselves and the community.
Finally, we could dance around the separation of church and state for years and years without ever getting any closer to agreeing. Regardless of religious beliefs, a person is entitled to stand up for their moral beliefs, obviously within reason and with intelligence. Yes, some people argue a point because "their priest said so." Yes, some people condemn a person or people because that's what they were raised to do. Yes, some view Catholics as mindless, bigoted fundamentalists. I must say in response, that anyone with those views or any others similar are the true close-minded ignorants.

Calendar should consider the true women of distinction
COMMENTARY
The Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center is now accepting nominations for the 2006-2007 KU Women of Distinction Calendar.
Anyone who knows a "KU woman who has distinguished herself through outstanding achievement and/or contributions to KU" — a student, faculty member or alumna
TAMPA BAY
— can submit a nomination for the calendar.
MATT ERICKSON opinion@kansan.com
Perhaps you know a woman who fits these conditions, maybe someone who contributed to a celebrated research project, someone who headed an honorable student organization or someone who was a leader in advancing women's rights.
But I've got a better idea.
Certainly, people who did these and other illustrious things would deserve to be called "Women of Distinction."
These women could very well be the most well-known at KU by the time the issue is released in the fall, so shouldn't they be considered "women of distinction?"
I think we all know who the real "women of distinction" are here at KU.
In fact, let's make these women the only subjects of the
I am speaking, of course, of the progressive, courageous women who auditioned for the Playboy "Girls of the Big 12" issue two weeks ago.
calendar. Their achievements, their contributions to KU and their advancement of the status of women everywhere are all immeasurable.
We're all told that so-called "women of distinction" belong in leadership positions in classrooms, on athletic teams and in the workplace. But, instead of taking one of these routes, these women did what people said they couldn't: They proved that women can also take off their clothes for money.
Along with these women, Playboy and its readers should be commended for what a great thing they have done. By traveling to college campuses across the nation, Playboy shows young women that they have the power to be exploited. And what a power that is.
One could say these young women are patriots. Exploiting women is an American tradition. For example, aboutface.org documents all the ways that American advertisers have exploited women and their bodies for sexual appeal.
one acknowledges that women who pose in Playboy or similar publications have a right to do so, some people find the idea of women selling images of their nude bodies a bit objectionable and not just because many find such publications to be im moral.
They might make claims that Playboy, its readers and the women who pose in it are contributing to a culture that suggests women can be most successful if they are sexually appealing, that a woman's greatest asset is her ability to sexually excite men.
Now, though nearly every
They might say this obsession with sex and appearance contributes to body image problems, self-esteem issues and eating disorders for millions of girls and women around the world, as well as continued discrimination against women in all walks of life.
Well, that's just too bad because these women have the right to pose naked if they want to, and Playboy has the right to show them. And what's more, Playboy models often go on to have success in acting, modeling and other fields.
That's much more important than the welfare of millions of women across the globe.

Bottom line: Knowing your rights is the utmost form of empowerment. Making yourself familiar with the Bill of Rights enables you to handle a lot of situations that get thrown your way. If you know the rights to which you are entitled, you have the power to stand up for yourself and make right a long line of wrongs.
COMMENTARY
How well do people know their rights? How well do students know their rights? Surprisingly and disappointingly, not very well. The most basic rights enumerated in the Bill of Rights are unknown to an overwhelming number of people.
Students must know their rights
P. H. BOSSEN
SUBMISSIONS
The First Amendment, the foundation of our rights as citizens of the United States, is a second-rate issue to many students. A majority of students don't know everything it entails, or, worse, believe it gives us too much protection. Ironic, is it not? According to MSNBC, when students were enlightened as to the exact text of the First Amendment, one in three thought the amendment went "too far" concerning the rights it guarantees, giving people too much leverage.
Hodding Carter III, president of the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, said that "these results are not only disturbing, they are dangerous."
Lack of familiarity with your rights become a problem when dealing with any form of authority or law enforcement. We are taught at a young age that we should always be honest. While honesty is the best policy, you have the right to stay quiet when a police officer asks you questions. When they tell you, "Whatever you say can and will be used against you," they mean it. You absolutely have the right to know the officer's information, and should take note of the name and badge number.
We have to take full responsibility for our education and bills and an endless amount of other things as college students. More often than not, however, when dealing with authority figures, we are treated like we're kids again. Everyone is entitled to due process under the Fourteenth Amendment. This means you, as a student, have the right to be treated fairly by people in positions of authority. If you are in danger of being suspended from school, you have the right to know the exact charges that you are facing and you have the right to a hearing.

ROTC
Students learn, practice basic survival skills
By NICOLLE KELLEY
nkelley@kansai.com
KANSAST STAFF WRITER
Maggots and grasshoppers make a tasty meal in a pinch, but if you really want a delicacy, the black ant, which tastes like lemon drop, is the recommended bug of choice.
If you're ever stranded in the middle of the woods and forced to survive on your own instincts, it might also be good to know that about 90 percent of black or blue berries are edible, whereas about 50 percent of red berries are edible.
"If you don't know what it is, don't eat it," Staff Sgt. Duwain Aamodt said. "If you pick something up and say I have no idea that what is' put it back down."
This kind of information, in addition to shelter building, fire making and radio communication was all part of the Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape training the Air Force ROTC participated in over the weekend.
Twenty-eight students and two instructors left the comforts of their homes to learn basic survival skills. These skills are things they should know if one of their planes were ever shot down and they were forced to make it on
their own in the wilderness.
"We do a lot of class work and book learning, this is more hands on and practical," said Capt. Dan Hatchel, KU Air Force ROTC instructor. "It's a little more chance for them to lighten up and learn a skill. They may only take one thing away from here but that may the thing that helps them later."
Stephanie Langley, Leavenworth freshman, said even though she was a civil engineer major she came on the trip because the skills she would learn were basic things everyone should know.
"I don't know if I'll ever use this stuff again but it's just nice to know just in case you get in one of those situations where you never know," Langley said.
The first lesson of the day was learning how to make a shelter. Staff Sgt. Aamodt, one of the three SERE training instructors who taught the cadets during the weekend, said that building a shelter was one of the most important skills a person needed to survive.
"If you don't find something to get yourself out of the elements, you're as good as dead," he said.
The cadets learned how to construct a tent using their rain ponchos, some rope and the
rocks and trees around them. This would be their home for the next two days, where they would sleep on the ground with only a sleeping bag.
The cadets were then shown how to make a fire using a flint rock and piece of steel to create a spark as well as other ways using materials that can be found in the wilderness.
Staff Sgt. John Calder, another SERE training officer, said the secret to successfully making a fire was preparation. He said the most important thing was getting organized and making sure all the materials were at arms reach before making a flame.
Calder said this was a skill that pertained to all types of survival. He said in a situation such as being stranded in the wilderness, it's important to always be organized and think things out before doing it.
Before any pilot in the U.S. Air Force goes up in a plane, they are outfitted with a survival vest, which contains a radio, a Global Positioning System tracking device and other emergency equipment.
1984-07-26
Master Sgt. James Gray, another SERE training officer, said that because pilots were being trained on how to establish communication for help as soon as possible, military services had improved their personnel recovery rate significantly.

Matthew Lawrence, vice wing commander of the cadet core and Lawrence senior, said one of the biggest things he would take away from his experience is the teamwork. He said it was important because everyone was working together and looking out for one another to get things done.
"I think it was a very humbling experience because you come out here not knowing a thing and these guys that are teaching us know everything." Lawrence said. "It's just a really good way to learn basic knowledge that everybody could use."

'Hawks keep early run against'Cats
Randall Sanders/KANSAN
LAMSATE
Senior pitcher Ricky Fairchild delivers against Kansas State in the fourth inning Saturday at Tointon Stadium in Manhattan. Fairchild earned his fifth win of the year by pitching six innings allowing two runs on four hits while walking five batters and striking out two.
BY SHAWN SHROYER

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
With a tight hamstring and the bases loaded in the bottom of the second inning on Saturday, Ricky Fairchild wasn't simply on the verge of being pulled from the game.
The senior right-hander was on the brink of demotion to bullpen duty.
"When he was in trouble in the second inning, I was thinking to myself, 'Man, it might be about time to make a change on the Saturday starter,'" Kansas coach Ritch Price said.
Fairchild's start began smoothly. He shook off a lead off double by Kansas State's designated hitter Tyler Link on the first pitch he threw to retire the next three batters. Fairchild maintained that momentum into the beginning of the second inning, getting the first two batters of the inning to fly out to senior outfielder Gus Milner. After this point, Fairchild looked like a completely different pitcher.
It began with a five-pitch walk to freshman outfielder Byron Wiley, followed by Fairchild hitting junior infielder Eli Rumler despite having an 0-2 count in his favor. Four pitches out of the zone later to junior infielder Eddie Vasquez loaded the bases.
As a result, pitching coach Ryan Graves took a trip to the mound to check on Fairchild. The mound visit lasted so long, fans in attendance grew anxious and began booing to speed the meeting up. It turned out Fairchild was battling a tight hamstring.
"I was really concerned," Price said. "He was bending over and I thought he hurt his back or something and that's just not like him."
Fairchild remained in the game after the visit, but another four-pitch walk forced in a run. An early exit appeared inevitable for Fairchild. The Dallas native proved his grit, and escaped the jam with a shallow pop-up to senior outfielder Matt Baty. Fairchild continued to prove his durability during his roller coaster start.
Fairchild said after he stretched his hamstring and took some salt tablets between innings,he knew he wouldn't be coming out of the game early.
"I told coach Graves he could tell whoever's in the bullpen to sit down," Fairchild said. "I was never worried."
Fairchild followed up the shaky second inning with two straight three-up, three
SERIES RECAP
down innings. In the fifth, he faced only four batters thanks to a double play and a quick strike out of junior infielder Jared Goedert. Seven pitches would be all Fairchild would need in the sixth to move on to the seventh.
"He brings that senior maturity." Price said. "He's pitched at Tulane and pitched in the College World Series. He holds runners, fields his position and doesn't give in, hitter to hitter or pitch to pitch."
The six complete innings marked Fairchild's longest outing since March 25 at Nebraska. After Fairchild gave up a single to Rumler and a full-count walk to Vasquez in the seventh inning, Graves made a call to the bullpen, ending Fairchild's afternoon. Junior Brendan McNamara entered the game
and eventually balked in Rumler, charging Fairchild with his second run of the day. Kansas State wouldn't score again, though, allowing Fairchild to earn his fifth victory of the season, and his first since March 5.
Fairchild's line read six innings, four hits, two runs, five walks and two strike outs, but the victory was more significant than any numbers could portray.
"It was nice to bounce back," Fairchild said. "I've been struggling lately and had some bad luck here and there, but I know in the long run that my defense is always going to be behind me. So as long as I'm throwing strikes and letting them work, then the rest will take care of itself."

Game one of the Sunflower Series was ugly. Between the two, the Wildeats and Jayhawks posted five errors on the evening and three unearned Jayhawk runs.
"I thought we made a couple of bad defensive plays." Kansas coach Ritch Price said. "That really hurt us. I think we kind of hit in the mouth tonight, building a four-run lead and the next thing you know we're behind. As soon as they tied took the lead, though, we answered and tied it."
Orthodox or not, Kansas made a statement Friday night, taking the only game of the series played in Lawrence. Junior left Sean Land (4-6) moved smoothly through the four innings of the game, using what Price said was a good use of his fastball and change up in his five innings of work.
"I thought Sean was really good tonight." Price said, commenting on Land's pitching plan. "I think that's two good outings for Sean."
Kansas 5 Kansas State 2
Amongst the chaos of the spring football game next door to game two of the Kansas (29-15, 9-8) vs. Kansas State (23-12, 3-10-1) rivalry, people in purple were everywhere.
saturday's game was sold out.
Kansas jumped on top early, capitalizing on a Wildcat error and a sophomore third baseman Erik Morrison two-run single in the top of the first and quieting the record setting crowd of 4,026. Morrison continued his terrific day at the plate all afternoon, going 3-for-4 with three RBI, his first three-hit day of the season.
Kansas closer Don Czyz worked alongside freshman Paul Smyth and collected his 15th save, and second of the series, in his 25th appearance.
While Czyz's senior leadership and multiple scoreless outings are commonplace, Smyth's role as his setup man is impressing more than just the traveling Jayhawk fans.
"I'm really proud of Paul Smyth," Price said. "He's really emerged as an outstanding freshman. He's perfect for the role that he's in."

The rivals then began a give-and-take scoring relationship. After Kansas State scored a run in the fourth inning, senior infielder Jared Schweitzer hit his third home run of the season in the top of the fifth inning. The long fly ball cleared the fence and tied the game for the second time in as many innings.
"In reality, it was a good weekend. However, it could've been really special to get the win on Sunday," Morrison said. "We made some mistakes that kind of cost us."
A string of costly errors and untimely hitting would later finish the game, yet starting pitchers Kodiak Quick (7-3) and K-State's Chase Bayuk (6-2) began the game efficiently. Each allowed a base hit and ended each lineup's first-inning threat with a strikeout.
Kansas jumped on board in its next at bat with a sacrifice fly from freshman first baseman Preston Land.

Kansas continued to help its in-state rivals prevent the sweep with costly errors. With two outs in the bottom of the seventh inning, Rice reached again on a Morrison error. Kansas's fourth error of the game resulted in a Kansas State RBI single.
Baseball Notes:
The record-setting crowd that turned out for Saturday's 5-2 Kansas victory didn't reach half that amount for Sunday's series finale.
◆ The loss was Quick's first in his last six starts. Before Sunday, Quick's last loss was more than a month ago, March 19, at Baylor.
Freshman catcher Justin Ellrich hit his first career home run on Sunday. Ellrich sent the ball over the "Hit it Here" sign on the Willie's Sports Bar and Grill right field advertisement.
“Even though I'm from Missouri, I've always hated K-State.” Ellrich said. “I like KU, obviously I'm here, but I’ve hated K-State my whole life. So it’s definitely big time for me to go yard for the first time.”

All-American dominates play against Kansas
BY MARK DENT
mdent@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
Is Cat Osterman a college athlete or a movie star?
Either that or how much a record Arrocha Ballpark crowd of 1,217 cares for the All-American and Olympic pitcher.
It seemed more like the latter on Saturday when the Texas pitcher, who had finished off the Jayhawks in the bottom of the seventh inning, was greeted by a throng of at least 100 fans who were crowded along the fences like paparazzi surrounding the red carpet.
Standing at an intimidating 6-feet-2, with a relaxed but intense expression that never changed throughout the game. Osterman exuded dominance when she was on the mound. However, her imposing stature and facial expression were the opposite of her controlled, off-speed pitches that seemed to glide out of her hand effortlessly, as if she wasn't even throwing the ball.
Osterman got to business right away against Kansas on Saturday.
After retiring the first three batters she faced, the lefty proceeded to strike out the side in the next two innings.
"All the crowd support is awesome," the senior said. "They're great for the sport and it's a testament to how much people care for this game."
"At first, I was pitching them one or two strikes to get ahead early." Osterman said. "Then I'd try to change it up and make adjustments as the hitters made adjustments."
Her pitches, which moved all around the plate, fooled Jayhawk hitters who found themselves reaching for pitches out of the strike zone all day.
"You can see why Osterman has the reputation she does," Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said. "She has tremendous ball movement. Nobody moves the ball around in and out of the zone as well as that kid."
While Osterman finished with 15 strikeouts and pitched
a shutout, Texas coach Connie Clark said it wasn't even one of her best performances.
"She struggled a little bit in the middle innings. She felt like she didn't have the legs," Clark said.
Osterman made her fourth straight pitching appearance on Saturday. "She gutted it out by mixing things up. That really helped."
The Jayhawks were able to threaten the pitcher as freshman third baseman Val Chapple and senior designated player Serena Settlemier led off the fourth and fifth innings with base hits. Fortunately for Osterman, catcher Megan Willis bailed her out by picking off Chapple and throwing out the stealing Settlemier.
"Her plays were huge." Osterman said. "Megan really cleared the bases and changed the momentum of the innings."
Even without her best moves, Osterman showed why she is hailed as the top pitcher in America with a chance to ice

the game for her Longhorn squad in the bottom of the seventh inning. Pitching for the first time in the game with a lead, the reigning USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Year removed all of Kansas' hopes by striking out the side against the Jayhawks' top of the order. All three batters struck out on moving pitches that were out of the strike zone.
"My legs felt a little bit tired out there, but I just refocused and tried to spin the ball," Osterman said. "I knew I had enough stuff, and a win is a win."

In a match-up of the Big 12 Conference's best two pitchers, everything came down to one pitch
Texas' Amber Hall smashed junior pitcher Kassie Humphreys' curve ball over the right-field wall in the top of the seventh inning. It was the deciding pitch of the game as No. 2 Texas defeated Kansas 1-0 Saturday afternoon at Arrocha Ballpark in front of a record 1,217 fans.
Kansas loses with single pitch
The pitching.match-up lived up to its billing, with Humphreys and Texas' Cat Osterman allowing only four hits combined. Each pitcher also faced 21 batters, the minimum number possible.
"One pitch was the difference," coach Tracy Bunge said. "You obviously tip your cap to Amber Hall. One bad pitch.
Osterman finished the game with 13 strikeouts and allowed two hits. Humphreys struck out five, allowing one hit and one run.
"It hurts the most," Humphreys said of allowing the home run. "You're the only
one that has control!
Kansas didn't strand any base runners, but had a runner thrown out at second in both the fourth and fifth innings. Freshman third baseman Val Chapple and senior pitcher Serena Settlemier were thrown out at second.
"We found a way to get some balls in play." Bunge said. "We have to be able to string some hits together."
The loss dropped Kansas' record to 26-21 and 5-7 in Big 12 play.

Pitcher leads Cubs to 7-3 victory
ST. LOUIS — Greg Maddux is turning back the clock for a team missing its offensive star and two of its best pitchers.
BY R.B. FALLSTROM
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The four-time NL Cy Young Award winner, who turned 40 earlier this month, threw seven scoreless innings on Sunday to help the Chicago Cubs beat the St. Louis Cardinals 7-3. He has won his first four starts for the first time in his career, to go with a miniscule 0.99 ERA.
a miniscule 0555 BLOCK Maddux's big start is helping rescue a team that doesn't have Derrek Lee, Mark Prior or Kerry Wood.
“It's just amazing what he does because he's not throwing 94, 93 mph,” outfielder Juan Pierre said. “You watch Greg Maddux, that's an art.”
Maddux (4-0) held the Cardinals to five hits and also singled and scored, helping the Cubs avert a three-game sweep and win for the first time in three games since losing Lee for at least two months with a broken wrist.
This is the first 4-0 start for Maddux since 2000 with the Braves when he needed six starts, and it's his first four game
winning streak since July 17:
Aug. 7,2004.
All month, Maddux has insisted that he's doing nothing different and not trying to fill the void.
"I wish I could explain it," Maddux said. "Personally, I'm just getting ready to pitch like I always have, I'm just catching a

"Sometimes you catch a few breaks in this game, and right now I am."
Jacque Jones hit his second homer, and second against the Cardinals, leading off the fourth against Jason Marquis (3-1).
Aramis Ramirez, who entered the game in a 3-for-18 slump, hit a two-run shot into the visitor's bullpen beyond the left-field wall in the fifth.
Todd Walker batted in Lee's
third slot for the third straight game and had two hits and three RBIs to raise his average to .408 for the Cubs, who completed a 5-4 road trip.
Albert Puiols, who had six RBIs the first two games of the series and entered with the major-league lead in homers (11) and RBIs (26), was 0-for-4.
Maddux, the only 40-plus right-handed starter in the major leagues, struck out four and his only walk came to the first batter he faced, David Eckstein. He threw a season-high 93 pitches and lowered his ERA 34 points, mastering the Cardinals for the second time.
"It's nice to get a win without Derrek," Walker said. "We can start believing we can do it."

"He's not coming with heat; he's never coming with heat," manager Tony La Russa said. "He's coming with a lot of intelligence and a great feel for pitching."
In two starts against the Cardinals, he's 2-0 and has given up one run on nine hits in 13 1-3 innings. Since turning 40 on April 14, he's surrendered one run on eight hits in 15 innings.
The Longhorns were the highest ranked opponent the Jayhawks have defeated this season. With only six games remaining before the Big 12 Tournament, Settlemier said it provided momentum before the tournament in Oklahoma City.

Delegate and have others chip in.
Tonight: The action is.
GEMINI [May 21-June 20] **★**
Take the lead in an important matter that means a lot to you. Someone you thought would act or do something could surprise you and do the opposite. Staying on top of your routine and must-dos will take talent. Tonight. Not every moment is perfect.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) *****
What might appear to be inconsistent could have logic behind it. Remain positive rather than blame others. Adding pressure to a touchy situation could aggravate others. Chill out and add positive vibes.
Tonight: Detach rather than get into the story.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ***** You might want to take your time rather than plunge into difficult situations. Pressure builds because others, and perhaps even you, have expectations that might be unfully hard to meet. An associate might be able to clear the path more easily. Tonight. Say yes to a loved one.
VIRIG (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) *****
Others have the ball in their court. You might not be thrilled with everything that heads in your direction. None of what occurs will be a problem if you don't let it become one. You might feel like you have too many iron in the fire. And you do! Tonight. Say yes.

Tonight Swap jokes and let go of a hard deck.
AUGURIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) *★★*
Expenses reach a new high, forcing your hand and encouraging you to head in a new direction. You will have to say no to others, as much as you might not want to. Partners and associates act remote. Trust that they are going through changes.

Freshman third baseman Val Chapple, left, Junior pitcher Kassie Humphreys, center, and Senior pitcher Serena Settlemier, right, celebrate after their victory against Texas Sunday afternoon at Arrocha Ball Park. KU defeated Texas 1-0.

Kansas finally ended its curse of the seventh inning.
After losing numerous games in the seventh inning, including Saturday's game on a solo home run, Kansas ended its curse, defeating No. 2 Texas 1-0 Sunday at Arrocha Ballpark.
Baltimore
"This definitely gives us confidence knowing we can go seven," said senior pitcher Serena Settlemier.
Kansas (27-21, 6-7) nearly extended its curse in the seventh inning, allowing Texas (45-5, 11-2) to load the bases.
Texas shortstop Desiree Williams led off the inning with a single right to right field and advanced to second base on a fielder's choice. Kansas junior pitcher Kassie Humphreys walked Texas catcher Megan Willis and hit pinch hitter MicKayla Padilla to load the bases. Designated Texas hitter Rachael Cook struck out to end the game, preserving the Kansas one-run victory.
"My hands were definitely shaking," Humphreys said of pitching to Cook. "My teammates did a great job of being really supportive."
Humphreys replaced Settlemier, Sunday's starter, in the sixth inning, Settlemier, who was credited with the victory, allowed one hit and struck
out four in five innings on the mound. Humphreys pitched two innings, allowed one hit, struck out four and recorded her third save of the season.
Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said she decided to replace Settlemier after the fifth inning because of Humphreys' recent success in late-game situations.
"The bottom line is, at crunch time with the bases loaded, Kassie has been really great," Bunge said. "She just came after those kids, got the job done and threw the ball exactly where she wanted to."
Both pitchers benefited from strong infield defense. In the bottom of the fourth inning, senior second baseman Jessica Moppin made a leaping catch to prevent the ball from soaring into right field. An inning later, senior shortstop Destiny Frankenstein made a turn-around grab and throw to first to record the out.
"We were great on defense," Bunge said. "Frankenstein made a couple of great plays. Moppin made a great play. It was a really good team effort."
Kansas scored its lone run in the bottom of the first inning. With the bases loaded, freshman center fielder Stevie Crisosto was hit by a pitch, scoring Moppin, who was on third base.

Sophomore third baseman Erik Morrison connects on his RBI double in the third inning against Kansas State in Manhattan on Saturday. Despite leading the Jayhawk offense with three hits and three RBI en route to a 5-2 victory over the Wildcats on Saturday, Morrison went 1-for-5 on Sunday, including making the final out with the tying run on second, and committed two errors.

Tyler Link caught the Jayhawks' hope of a series sweep when he dove into the KSU letters mowed into the outfield grass and caught the ball in the top of the ninth inning.
Morrison stepped up to bat, while senior centerfielder Matt Baty waited on second after doubling to left earlier in the inning. He took off as Morrison connected. Link then intercepted Morrison's line drive. If the line drive had dropped, the game would
"I thought we were going to extra innings for sure," Morrison, sophomore third baseman, said. "I can't really fault myself. I've got to give that guy credit for the effort, it was a great play. They battled the whole game and got the 'W.'"
Although they lost on Sunday, the Jayhawks had already clinched the series with a pair of victories on Friday and Saturday.

KANSAS RELAYS
Records set at weekend relays
Large crowd attends Goldzone
BY EVAN KAFARAKIS

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
Although the Kansas Relays all-time attendance mark was not broken this year, those who came out were given a great show, including a record-breaking race at the main event.
"We knew the goal was a bit too ambitious." Kansas Relays director Tim Weaver said about his hopes for breaking the all-time attendance mark at the Kansas Relays. "But we knew that."
"This just proves that 2005 was not a fluke." Weaver said. "To have a 25,000 average over two years is a good sign."
The all-time mark was set in 1972 when track legend Jim Ryun ran the mile. An estimated 50,000 plus attended the Relays that year.
This year's attendance hit 26,211,passing last year's second all-time attendance mark of 24,619.
Throughout the day the races and events were full of excitement.
The men's 100-meter dash was such a close race, no one had known who had won until it was announced a few races later.
Weaver said it was disappointing not to break the record, but it gave them more of a reason to hit the mark next year.
Josh Norman won the event
with a time of 10.27.
Mardy Scales placed second with a time of 10.28 and Rodney Martin came in third with a time of 10.29.
Although the races were entertaining, the main event is what many fans were waiting for.
With the men's main event of 4 x 100 relays set for the gun to go off at 5 p.m., the fans and runners were waiting for the officials to set things straight.
"They couldn't find out who was in lane three, seven and eight, so everybody switched around. I think it took three
"They were playing duck, duck, goose with the lanes," Sprint Capitol member and Olympic gold medallist Justin Gatlin said after the race.
The cause for the switching of lanes was Weaver radioing into the officials that he wanted Gatlin and home crowd favorite Maurice Greene to be next to each other in lanes 8 and 6 because they were the main attractions.
As the gun went off and the teams crossed the finish line, it was Sprint Capitol, with Gatlin, Dwight Thomas, Rodney Martin and Shawn Crawford, that won the event in 38.16 seconds, breaking Greene's Kansas Relays 4 x 100 meter time of 38.45 seconds.
times to get it right. The audience was patient. We were patient. I think we put on a good show," Gatlin said.
Greene's team, which never practiced handoffs — a move
"This was my first race of the year and my goal is just to stay healthy,"
Greene said. "It was for the fans, and I think they enjoyed it."
Gatlin echoed Greene's thoughts about the success of the meet.
"The Relays had a great atmosphere," Gatlin said. "My goals are to break the world record in the 100 meters and if I don't do it this year, hopefully I can do it next year at the Kansas Relays."
that proved costly — placed second as Greene brought the team back from fourth to second in his 100-meter run alone.

"Coach Hudy, she doesn't play in the weight room," sophomore forward Darnell Jackson said. "When you go in there, you're going to come out sweating."
That intensity is exactly what the coaches are looking for out of Hudy, who is in charge of strength and conditioning for the men's and women's basketball teams. She is able to get every ounce of energy out of the athletes, and she has a plan for those who don't buy into the system as well.

Police were then told about a fight in progress inside the club. According to Lawrence Police Department spokeswoman Kim Murphreie, witnesses said that a large fight between two groups broke out on the dance floor.
Six men were arrested and booked into jail Sunday following the brawl at Abe and Jake's night club early that morning.
"The officers' primary concern was to break up the fights
According to a police report, officers arrived at Abe and Jake's Landing, Sixth and New Hampshire streets, about 12:40 a.m. and observed a man coming out of the club holding a towel over his head.
While the officers assisted the injured man, another man was being taken out of the club by two patrons of the bar. The man being assisted was screaming obscenities, became aggressive with officers and had to be detained.
The officers' primary concern was to break up the fights and get victims medical attention."

According to reports from witnesses, one of the groups was made up of "teammates" fighting with a group of unknown males, but police do not know what sport the men may play or team they belonged to.

Chris Yates woke up at 5 a.m. Monday, not to start studying, but to line up at Spangles restaurant, 3420 W. Sixth St.
Yates, Wichita sophomore, along with a couple of friends, packed a tent, a grill and some hot dogs. The group finished setting up camp shortly after 5:30 a.m. and plans to continue waiting until it gets the Spangles coupon booklet.
Josh Allford, Wichita freshman, talks on the phone while waiting in the new Spangles parking lot, 3420 W. Sixth St., Monday afternoon. Allford, along with more than 100 other people camped out for their opportunity to receive free Spangles food for a year at the grand opening early this morning.
"We got everything we need right here and we're going to wait it out," he said. "They have the best breakfast food in the world."
Spangles
As part of the promotion for its Lawrence grand opening, Spangles spread the word that it would give the first 100 people in line a coupon booklet for one free meal a week for a year.
"We planned on getting here around 8, thinking people wouldn't show up until some time after that," Rene Steven, director of operations for Spangles, said. "We had people out here as early as 3:50 a.m."
"The food is really good," he said. "That's why we've been out here so long."
Rachel Seymour/KANSAN
Ben Broddle, Wichita junior said Spangles built a good reputation in Wichita and that made his decision to camp out easy.
Customers registered inside and had to remain at the location until the store opened this morning to receive the coupons. Spangles conducted random roll calls to determine if people on the list were still there.

Golf-ball sized bail from Sunday night's storm caused damage to vehicles as well as buildings on campus.
SEVERE WEATHER
Hail storm causes damage power outages
Lawrence left powerless
BY RACHEL PARKER
rparker@kansan.com
KANSAN STAPT WRITTER
A hail storm Sunday night left two-thirds of Lawrence temporarily without power. The storm's effects caused damage to both University and individual property.
Karla Olsen, Westar Energy spokeswoman, said that all of Lawrence's power had been restored. The outages were caused by a piece of equipment that fell on a main transmission line, setting off a chain reaction that affected other breakers.
Olsen said 21,500 of Westar's customers were without power, including people who lived in some residence and scholarship halls. About 19,300 outages were restored within the hour. The other 2,200 without power had it restored within three hours, she said.
The loss of power on campus set back the publication of The University Daily Kansan's Monday issue.
Jonathan Kealing, editor of the Kansan, said that a small crew from the newspaper had to make some quick decisions when Stauffer-Flint Hall, where the Kansan's offices are located, lost electricity between 11:30 and 11:40 p.m.
He said that the building had damage to skylights and windows but that the damage was assumed to be over when the storm
A crew of seven Kansan staff members hauled three computers to a conference room of the Lawrence Journal-World, where the Kansan is printed, to set up and prioritize what would be in the paper, scrapping stories as the paper was cut from 16 pages to 10 pages and setting up page designs. The paper wasn't submitted until after 3 a.m., well after the normal 1 a.m. deadline.
ended. The storm was over when the newer outages occurred.
The storm caused damage to temporary roofs that had been installed in buildings throughout campus after the March 12 microburst, said Mike Krings, University Relations spokesman. This caused minor leaks in campus buildings. Strong Hall's roof was hit particularly hard, sustaining damage from 2-inch halftones. Blake Hall and Robinson Center also sustained hail damage.
Krings said a power outage at the Computer Center east of Robinson caused computer problems throughout campus, including the Internet being down in some buildings Monday morning.
Krings said some vehicles were damaged. He said the University would not have a damage estimate in the next few days because it was hard to separate the damage from this storm and the damage from the microburst, which had been estimated at more than $6 million and was still being assessed.
In Douglas County, damage counts and costs were not taken for the hail storm, said Paula Phillips, director of Douglas County Emergency Management.
WEATHER
"I know there's damage out there, but nothing significant," she said.
Phillips said that because most of the damage was to individual property, like cars and windows, much of it wasn't reported.

9/11 film headlines New York festival
NEWYORK - The choice of the Hugh Grant comedy "About a Boy" to open the firstTribeca Film Festival in 2002 was a conscious attempt to turn away from the horrors of Sept. 11, the impetus for the festival, and give people a reason to laugh again, if only for one night.
Now in its fifth year, Tribeca faces the terrorist attacks head-on with the world premiere of "United 93," an intensely visceral drama about one of the four planes that crashed that day after passengers tried to tackle their hackers.
""(United) 93', if it was not opening the festival, it would seem strange", said Robert De Niro, who co-founded the festival with his Tribeca Films producing partner, Jane Rosenthal, to spark economic recovery in the neighborhood where he lives and works.
The film from writer-director Paul Greengrass, which recounts the flight and culminates with the jet nose-diving into a Pennsylvania field, will play on today's opening night before appearing in theaters nationwide Friday. Members of the passengers' families are expected to sit in the audience alongside others who lost loved ones during the attacks.
"You can't not be touched by it, honestly," De Niro said at a news conference Monday. "It's direct, simple. It's important to see because it's kind of a playback of what happened."
How alarming
While there are 273 other films playing at Tribeca over the next two weeks, a great deal of emotion and attention understandably have been devoted to "United 93."
"Quote of the Day"
The Associated Press
"But there is also something vaguely creepy about Peeps. They are blob-like and ubiquitous. Their eyes have no expression. With little taste, no nutritional value (though only 32 calories apiece) and a shelf life of two years, they hover somewhere between foodstuff and material object."

Some sewage with your morning paper?
HUNTINGTON, N.Y. - A 71-year-old man who went outside in the rain to pick up the Sunday newspaper plunged into a cesspool in his front yard, and his son and neighbor were sucked in when they tried to help.
The victims escaped, two with the help of firefighters, covered in raw sewage but not badly hurt.
Andrew Palladino said the soggy ground, soaked by two days of rain, gave way outside his Long Island home: "I walked across the lawn, and
all of a sudden I disappeared."
He yelled to his wife for help, and she threw a rope and called their son, Dan, who lives with them. The son said the scene "was like a horror picture"
A neighbor who heard the commotion ran over to help but the ground gave way again, swallowing him and the son. The neighbor crawled out and passers-by tried to hold onto the others until the Huntington Fire Department arrived.
Firefighters secured the ground, lassoed Palladino and his son and dragged them out.
It's not the first time a cesspool — a pit that collects waste from toilets and sinks
has swallowed someone in
Huntington.
In 2001, a man practicing archery in the backyard with his two children died when his cesspool caved in and consumed him. And in 1998, a Huntington Station man was rescued after he fell 65 feet into one.

Judge upholds lawsuit to save orphaned deer
MADISON, Wis. - A family that nursed Bambi, an orphaned fawn, to health three years ago can fight to prevent a state agency from euthanizing the animal, state courts decided.
Michael and Ilene Smith of
rural Columbus filed a lawsuit against the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources to halt the execution of the deer.
A judge declined a DNR request to throw out the lawsuit in February, and last week the state Court of Appeals refused to hear the state's appeal. Now the case is expected to be scheduled for an evidentiary hearing in Circuit Court.
plicated by chronic wasting disease, the fatal brain ailment that turned up the state's wild deer herd in 2002. State officials say restrictions to control the disease prevent the Smiths from keeping Bambi.
The Smiths say the white-tailed deer is like a family pet and kept in a fenced, wooded area on their farm. They say they followed state instructions on fencing and veterinarian checks, only to have the agency order the deer's destruction.
The dispute has been comin a ceremony at the Italian Consulate on Park Avenue.

Stolen Dionysus head returned to Italians
NEWYORK — Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly has returned a remarkable piece of stolen loot: an antiquity depicting the Greek god of wine.
"On behalf of the NewYork Police Department, I bring you the head of Dionysus." Kelly told Consul General Antonio Bandini
The antiquity was returned last week after police determined it had been stolen from a museum in Italy more than two decades ago.
Authorities said Christie's had planned to put the bust of Dionysus — known in Roman mythology as Bacchus — up for sale for $25,000 in 2002 after acquiring it from a defunct Japanese museum. But the auction house, amid suspicions that it had been stolen, turned it over to police.
The NYPD's Major Case Squad traced the sculpture to a small museum in italy that had been looted in 1983.

Wal-Mart, city reach agreement
BY KRISTEN JARBOE
kjarbose@kansan.com
KANSAEN STAFFER WRITE
G
For the past two years, a new Wal-Mart was acceptable at the northwest corner of 6th Street and Wakarusa Drive. The problem was its size.
Wal-Mart, 6Wak Land Investments and the City of Lawrence came to an agreement Friday in connection with pending lawsuits regarding the proposed development. Under the terms of the agreement, there will be a six-month period to review the new zoning application for the property.
In 2001, the city of Lawrence prohibited the building of department stores at the corner of 6th and Waka-
new plans have reduced it by close to 20 percent, but he said he would like a larger reduction than that.
Commissioner Dennis "Boog" Highberger agreed and said there should be less retail square footage. He said he had personal concerns with Wal-Mart as a business, but for the commission it was an issue of land use on deciding whether to approve the site plans.
"I'm not real happy with the results," he said. "But we have a better deal than we would have gotten with the lawsuit."

rusa. A year later, the city allowed Wal-Mart to be built at that intersection, but its proposed size was a problem. 6Wak Land Investments and Wal-Mart sued the city in 2003 for not approving the building of the store.
Dennis "Boog" Highberger City commissioner
Within the six-month period, the physical appearance will be assessed to insure that the structure maintains city standards. Commissioners are also looking to rezone the property to reduce the now 154,000 square feet to 128,000 square feet, including no more than 99,990 square feet for the largest enclosed building.
"I'm not for or against the project," Commissioner David Schauer said. "I want to make sure we have proper land use. My support is in the reduction of the square footage."
Schauer said he would like the new Wal-Mart to be smaller. The
During the procedural stages, issues will be subject to public comment at city commission meetings, Highberger said. During this time, the city commission waits for a new application for the building to be

considered at its meetings.
Interim City Manager Dave Corliss said that with improvements at the intersection, the site should be acceptable for Walt Mart, pending the size changes.
In the current agreement, 6Wak will refund the city the attorney fees the city was directed to pay by the court from the initial lawsuit. Wal-Mart will also pay for two-thirds of the cost of a stoplight that will be installed at the intersection, according to a city press release.
Wal-Mart spokeswoman Angie Stoner was unavailable for comment Monday.
In a city press release, Bill Newsome, a partner in 6Wak, said, "We are optimistic about a successful completion of the planning process and will work with the city to achieve that result."

Bush says large deportation won't work
NATION
President Bush addresses members of the Orange County Business Council Monday in Irvine, Calif. As Congress headed back Monday from a two-week recess, President Bush was in the country's most immigrant-rich state to push a stalled bill that would allow more foreigners to work legally in the United States.
BY NEDRA PICKLER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CAMPUS Holocaust survivors to speak at Union
Two Holocaust survivors will speak tonight in honor of Yom Hashoah, National
"Massive deportation of the people here is not going to work." Bush said as a Congress divided over immigration returned from a two-week recess. "It's just not going to work."
IRVINE, Calif. — President Bush, rebutting lawmakers advocating a law-and-order approach to immigration, said Monday that those who are calling for massive deportation of the estimated 11 million foreigners living illegally in the United States are not being realistic.
In addition to speaking here, Bush was meeting Tuesday with a bipartisan group of senators at the White House to press his case.
In Irine, Bush spoke in support of a stalled Senate bill that includes provisions that would allow for eventual citizenship to some of the illegal immigrants already here. Some conservatives say that would amount to amnesty.
Holocaust Remembrance Day, and the six million Jews who died in the Holocaust.
"This is one of the really important questions Congress is going to have to deal with," Bush said. The president said he thought the Senate "had an interesting approach by saying that if you'd been here for five years or less, you're treated one way, and five years or more, you're treated another."
Adela Dagerman and Lilly Segelstein, who survived the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp,will speak at 7 tonight at the Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
Standing in the center of a theater in the round-type setting with an audience full of business people, Bush spoke sympathetically about the plight of foreigners who risk their lives to sneak into the United States to earn a decent wage. He said the
U. S. needs a temporary guest worker program to stop people from paying to be smuggled in the back of a truck.
"I know this is an emotional debate," Bush told the Orange County Business Council. "But one thing we can't lose sight of is that we are talking about human beings, decent human beings."
Lawmakers, with an eye on Election Day in just over six months, remain far apart on whether to crack down on illegal immigrants or embrace them as vital contributors to the U.S. economy.
Bush said it's important to enforce border laws that are on the books and boasted that 6 million immigrants have been captured and turned back since he took office.
"You can be a nation of law and be a compassionate nation at the same time," he said to applause.
The White House's immediate goal is to get legislation approved by the Senate and into a conference committee. The president's aides hope a compromise can be reached with House members who passed a tougher bill that would impose criminal penalties on those who try to sneak into this country and would build fencing along the U.S.-Mexico border.
Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, R-Tenn., intends to seek passage of immigration legislation by Memorial Day by reviving the Senate bill that stalled earlier this month due to internal disputes in both parties as well as political maneuvering.
Both will be available after the lecture for a question and answer session.
KU Hillel and SUA are sponsoring the event through the Midwest Center for Holocaust Education. Admission is free.

Students to win by buying pizza
BY RACHEL PARKER
rparker@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Old man winter
Students who spend a lot of money ordering pizza could have a shot at a $1,500 prize toward tuition and books.
Domino's Pizza has started a contest this spring for students in residence halls, in which students are allowed to use both their Beak 'Em Bucks and KU Cuisine meal plans.
Battle of the Dorms is a competition that will award $1,500 to the student who orders the most Domino's Pizza during the semester. The student must live in one the residence halls. Casey Myers, general manager at Domino's, 832 Iowa St., said the residence hall with the most orders would receive a plaque or certificate, and the floor with the most orders would get a pizza party at the end of the semester. The resident assistant of the student who wins will also receive $500 for tuition and books.
Myers spoke to RAs about the contest early in the semester, and table tents were set up
in Mrs. E's to inform students about the competition.
Alison Henning, Denver freshman, said she ordered pizza almost every other day early in the semester. Henning said that because she was such a frequent caller, Domino's knew her voice and her room number. She said that when she was debating whether to order, the contest came to mind as a reinforcement.
Becky Losey, Roeland Park freshman, and Amber Stewart, Kansas City, Kan., freshman, said they got food fatigue from residence hall dining services. Losey said she thought it was convenient to order food using her KUID because she rarely carried cash. The two were skeptical of the competition, however
"I would just order a lot of pizza and not win," said Losey, McCollum Hall resident.
Stewart, Oliver Hall resident, said she had ordered Domino's a few times but that she would rather use her money for other things than the contest.

So it comes as no surprise to learn the players usually take care of business during the allotted time.
Under Hudy's watch, coaches say the players have reached new fitness levels, enabling them to stay in games longer and fight for loose balls harder.
After seeing the results, have the players learned to embrace their training time?
"We like to make them embrace it." Hudy said with a laugh.
An early wake-up call
Hudy's job is a simple one: make the players more physically fit.
Senior forward Crystal Kemp said the workouts seemed overwhelming at first.
"At the time, you don't think you can do it and lift that much weight," she said. "But when you see yourself doing something you didn't think you could do, you're proud of yourself, and you want to show her and your teammates that you're working hard."
During the summer, the women's team chose to have its workouts at 6 a.m. so the players wouldn't have to worry about
Hudy has run in 13-mile half-marathons, but is considering pushing her training to the next level and preparing for a triathlon, which she hasn't done before. A standard triathlon consists of approximately one mile of swimming, 25 miles of bicycling and 6 miles of running. And the players think they have it tough.
doing it in the afternoon.
The men's team opted for afternoon workouts, but that presents its own set of difficulties for players who may be tired from morning classes.
Freshman guard Brandon Rush, who coach Bill Self refers to as a comedian, knows better than to laugh through a workout.
Hudy said it can be a telling sign whether players embrace
"You don't get breaks," he said. "You don't get to sit down, you don't get to take a drink. She'll stay on you."
the workouts or shy away from them. Occasionally, a recruit will visit during one of her intense weightlifting sessions.
"Sometimes it can be overwhelming, and sometimes the kids are up for the challenge and want to embrace it," she said.
Taking her work home
Hudy's dedication to strength training isn't just an act she puts on for the players. She lives it out at home as well.
After getting to the office at 6 in the morning and spending a whole day in the gym, she doesn't head straight for the couch at home. She mountain bikes.
Hudy has run in 13-mile half-marthaons, but is considering pushing her training to the next level and preparing for a triathlon, which she hasn't done before. A standard triathlon consists of approximately one mile of swimming, 25 miles of bicycling and 6 miles of running. And the players think they have it tough.
She moved to Lawrence two years ago having spent her life on the East Coast, first as a college volleyball player at Maryland and then as strength and
conditioning coach at Connecticut, where the Huskies won both the men's and women's basketball titles.
Her boss there was Lew Perkins, who didn't hesitate to bring her to Kansas when the job opened.
A year-long commitment
The teacher role is one she feels comfortable in, and why she can feel comfortable leading a room full of men.
During the workouts, Hudy does not get stingy with her intensity.
"I compare it to guys that have had a female math teacher. If they still teach you something, what's the difference?" she asked. "I like to think I teach those guys something about weight training, integrity and character — the same things a male teacher would teach."
"She is one of the best strength coaches around," Perkins said. "She's a good motivator, a great person and a great teacher."
Of course, Hudy yells a little more than the average math teacher.
This is especially true right now, which Hudy describes as her "primary time." She sees the
players only for an hour and a half per week during the season, but will get as many as six hours per week with the players during the offseason.
"We have like 30 seconds to lift, and then the clock goes off and we have 15 seconds to get to the next station," Jackson said. "It's pretty hectic in there."
For younger players, it can be overwhelming. This is especially true of women's basketball players, who may not be used to the workouts. These freshmen work not only to learn the system, but also to catch up to the upperclassmen, who have had the benefit of previous weight training.
Everything about the workout is tightly controlled, down to the second.
Hudy says the commitment that Jayhawk players make is far greater than any high school program she has ever seen. Every player devotes not just the season, but the whole year to training for basketball.
During the summer workouts, players run, lift weights, do squats and presses and tackle any number of drills during the 75-minute session.
"What people see is a very small percentage of what the
kids do," she said.
Seeing the results
In the gym, Hudy isn't just projecting her intensity onto the players, she's getting them to imitate it.
Ivana Catic is a player who Hudy enjoys having in the weight room. The freshman guard is often yelling at teammates during workouts, encouraging them toward the end of long sessions.
"We try to teach them how to be passionate about things," Hudy said. "Ivana's pretty passionate about basketball and working hard."
In December the women's game against Wisconsin went into double-overtime. Catic, Kemp and senior guard Erica Hallman played all 50 minutes of the game. After the first overtime, Catic ran into the huddle, yelling the same thing she does toward the end of intense workouts: "Hudy!"
Those workouts, Catics said, are the reason the teammates are able to run up and down the court for so long without fatiguing.
The training paid off, Kansas won the game 90-87.

TOPEKA — Amid a mumps outbreak, health officials Monday showed off an Internet-based immunization registry to make sure Kansans don't miss vaccinations against such diseases.
The system is 10 months old and allows its users — mostly local health departments for now — to check people's vaccination records, even if they move or change physicians. It's part of a larger effort to boost Kansas' relatively low childhood immunization rates.
The goal is to persuade all of Kansas' 99 local health departments, plus private clinics, hospitals and doctors' offices to register vaccinations in the system dubbed KSWebIZ. So far, 36 health departments and a handful of private offices and clinics are participating.
Officials from the Kansas Department of Health and Environment and Shawnee County Health Agency had a news conference as part of National Infant Immunization Week. But it came as health officials worry about a growing number of mumps cases in Midwestern states, including Kansas.
Howard Rodenberg, director of KDHE's health division, said one issue in the mumps outbreak is that some Kansans had only one vaccination before entering school, or none at all. Doctors and public health officials recommend two doses of the MMR vaccine against measles, mumps and rubella before a child enters school.
Rodenberg said he can't say
whether Kansas would have fewer mumps cases had KSWeblZ been in place earlier.
"I do think we would have a much better handle on those who got immunized and who didn't, which would help us to get a better assessment of the pattern of disease and maybe help us to have more effective interventions." Rodenberg said.
As of Friday, Kansas reported 205 confirmed or probable cases of mumps in 31 counties. In a typical year, Kansas sees only a few cases; in 2005, there were none.
But the mumps outbreak isn't the only reason for KDHE to
publicize the registry.
A report issued last month noted that in 2004, Kansas ranked 43rd among states in the percentage of children under 5 who have received proper vaccinations, at less than 78 percent. The report was commissioned by a new public-private effort to boost vaccination rates.
KDHE Secretary Rod Bremby noted that for years, doctors have recorded shots in pink booklets that parents were supposed to keep at home. He said that method worked — as long as parents didn't lose the booklet or a child's school or doctor didn't change.
"Years ago, we realized that there was a better way to track immunizations," Bremby said.
So far, Shawnee County's is the largest local health department to participate in the registry program. The state estimates about 557,000 Kansans have 1.9 million vaccinations logged on the system.
But Rodenberg acknowledged the system won't work as well as it can until all health departments and many private offices participate.
"Some of the issues are related to computer capabilities," Rodenberg said.

New York strike leader cheered
BY ELIZABETH LESURE THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — A chanting crowd gave the city's transit union chief a supportive send-off Monday before he was to begin a 10-day jail sentence for leading a strike last year that shut down the city's subways and buses.
"I will do 30 years be fore transit workers surrender," Toussaint said in a fiery speech. "Working people have tried to obey the law, and we have gotten nothing but insults for it."
The walkout crippled the city just before Christmas last year and violated a state law banning strikes by public employees. A judge ruled union leader Roger Toussaint should be jailed for 10 days and fined $1,000 for contempt.
Tens of thousands of New Yorkers had to walk the same route during the three-day strike.
The Bob Marley song "Get Up, Stand Up" and cheers from a crowd of dozens Toussaint as he arrived at a rally in Brooklyn before a planned march with workers across the Brooklyn Bridge to a jail in Manhattan.
Union leaders addressed the crowd, hailing Toussaint as a working-class hero who stood up for the rights of the common man by demanding fair treatment on pensions, health care and wages. Chants included "Long live the union" and "Long live Roger Toussaint."
will do 30 years before transit workers surrender. Working people have tried to obey the law, and we have gotten nothing but insults for it."
Roger Toussaint NYC transit union leader
"We're with you, Roger," the Rev. Al Sharpton told the crowd. "We will be there every step of the way."
Sharpton, who called the punishment an immoral attempt to intimidate workers, promised to hold a vigil on the union boss' first night in jail. He said he would stay in a tent outside the jail to protest.
The 60-hour strike ended without a contract between Transport Workers Union Local 100 and the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, the state agency that runs the bus and subway system.
Union members voted last week to approve an offer they had rejected in January, but the MTA has said it doesn't have to accept the vote because the dispute is in binding arbitration.
The 33,000-member union was fined $2.5 million for the strike and plans to appeal.
Gov. George Pataki, at an appearance Monday in the city, said he wanted people to remember the plight of Matthew Long, a firefighter who was seriously injured when he was run over by a vehicle while bicycling to work during the strike.

Tonight: What you want.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ★★
You have always known that words are powerful weapons -- you have known that for a long time. But you see an excellent example of this phenomenon today. Rise above pettiness. Don't personalize what you hear.
Tonight: Do your thing.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) ★★★★☆
Crowds, meetings and friends seem to hold unusual magic right now. You could be overpacing or driving someone away. You might want to rethink a money matter. If something is costing you too much, say no.
Tonight: Where your friends are.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) ★★★

you could get irritated with a boss or

going to help calm down the situation,
but then you might not want it to, either.

Detach and take an overview. Your instincts could be colored by frustration and anger. Slow but steady works far better than you realize. Seek out experts if a situation becomes complicated.
Tonight: Relax to a movie or music.

Tonight: Find your favorite chair.

Your get-up-and-go could easily trigger someone in your life. He or she feels challenged by your sense of direction, vision and ability to carry through. Listen to this person gripe, but don't feel as if you need to do anything about it.
Tonight: Allow only good times to enter the equation.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.19) ★★★
A low profile might work best. You easily might need some peace and quiet to think through a problem or hassle. Others could be challenged or, at best, hard to contain. Know when you be unavailable.
Tonight: Leave the answering machine on.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ******
You can understand and work with nearly anything. Your sense of friendliness pervades even the most difficult situations. Still, be aware of certain responsibilities or errands. You have to meet daily demands first.
Tonight: Favorite place.
PICSEN (Feb. 19-March 20) ★★ ★
Stacking off could be costly, but you still might choose to do just that. You could be bored by the routine. If that is the case, think of a positive way to recharge your interest in your daily life or work.

Randle undeserving of athletic scholarship
Why does someone always have to be around when John Randle breaks the law?
Now some people might be saying, "How does he manage to get himself in trouble so often? Why doesn't he just walk away from these situations?" Oh, how he has tried. At least twice, in March 2004 and then the most recent incident, Randle tried leaving but they wouldn't let him. The police said he was "feeling the scene."
Why just a few weeks ago, the Wichita junior was charged with battery and disorderly conduct in connection with a fight with former teammate Jerome Kemp, marking the sixth time police have arrested the former KU running back. Some other past incidents he has been cited for include stealing beer from a convenience store, fighting outside of its Brothers Bar & Grill and peeing on a door outside the Granada, punching a manager who told him to stop.
Randle can't seem to catch a break with the football program either. Coach Mark Mangino kicked him off the team last spring after a spate of run-ins with the law. Things do not look to be changing much for the upcoming season, as well. If there is any silver lining, it's that he has retained his scholarship each year.
Naysayers contend that an athletic scholarship is a privilege and that it should be taken away from
Issue: Former KU running back John Randle's criminal record
Stance: Academic scholarship students must maintain a certain GPA to keep their scholarships. Randle should have to maintain a certain code of conduct to his athletic scholarship.
Actually, that is an excellent question that the Athletics Department needs to answer and be accountable for. No one doubts Randle's prowess on the field but this does not justify keeping him around on scholarship. His actions deserve repercussions. Even if the scholarship is contractual, the department should be able to opt out of it. Otherwise, Randle will set a dangerous precedent in how the University handles players who cannot act responsibly off the field.
Randle because of his criminal record. If he isn't allowed to play on the team, why should he continue to attend the University of Kansas for free, they ask.

Letter to the new provost: GTA issues need resolution
The two sides have reached tentative agreement on four articles of the contract. In all four cases, these were University proposals that the GTA team chose to accept. Three of these were signed in a single negotiating session; the very same day the University team informed us that they had no intention of moving toward a compromise on any open issues, and therefore intended to initiate an impasse. Believing we were finally making progress and having given up some things in the hope that our greater priorities would be respected, the GTA team was shocked.
On behalf of the GTA negotiating team, we would like to welcome you to our University. We would also like to take a moment to familiarize you with a situation here, and express our intense displeasure with the apparent values and priorities of our current administration. As you may know, negotiations between the University and its GTAs have recently reached an impasse. You may not be aware, however, of the details leading up to this event.
Dear Dr. Lariviere,
From the beginning of the negotiations process, the University has tried to pressure the GTA negotiating team into accepting an unfavorable contract by withholding all merit raises, and threatening to continue to do so until an agreement is reached. Considering that the existing agreement between the University and its GTAs guarantees yearly raises for all returning GTAs, we find this tactic appalling.
Yet when we turned down the University's final package of outrageous proposals, we were accused in the press of sacrificing possible raises in favor of unimportant "non-economic" issues.
We do not see why negotiations should be an all-or-nothing process, nor do we feel that money is the only thing that impacts our lives or our performance as teachers.

The above situation begins to illuminate just why those other issues are incredibly important, and why it is misleading even to call them "noneconomic." It was the decision of the provost to deny us our guaranteed raises. It is also the provost who has the final decision in our grievance procedure, which is the accepted avenue for contesting this sort of contract violation.
Similarly, the 10-semester limit on GTA appointments has an undeniable impact on both educational quality and the economic realities of GTAs. By firing GTAs systematically after five years, before most students can complete their Ph.D.s, the University manages to eliminate the most experienced GTAs as well as force active GTAs to hurry through their degree programs, leaving them overworked and psychologically strained. Many of the best graduate students must choose to leave KU after completing their Masters' for programs that offer better funding opportunities. We were told, however, that, because GTAs who have reached their 10th semester can apply to become lecturers, at which time they would be allowed to maintain the same job responsibilities for a smaller salary and without a tuition waiver, we should not complain about the current situation. It was further explained to us that we could even see this as a benefit, because most universities will assume a lectureship constitutes a promotion, and will consider our applications more favorably because of this.
For an institution whose purported mission is higher education, this is a surprising position to articulate. Not only does this imply a willingness to mislead our peers in the academy about the nature of employment here, it also allows KU to claim that one third of its courses are taught by GTAs, when many more are also led
by students who merely hold an alternate title. We're sure we do not need to tell you that this is dishonest, and represents a clear preference for the appearance of quality rather than its actual existence.
But other issues aside, let it be known that KU's salary offer was by no means something we could accept. The minimum salary the offer proposed was $3,000 short of KU's own estimate of our cost of attendance, and the annual increases showed no sign of closing that gap. We doubt we need to explain that a starving employee, or one who is forced to take on several jobs, is probably not able to perform at her full potential either as a student or an instructor.
Furthermore, KU's proposal exacerbated the inequality between GTAs by insuring those at the bottom of the salary range would never feel the benefits of a raise for good performance, while those who make the most would continue to see raises each year. We think rewarding employees for exceptional job performance encourages GTAs to give their all, and we certainly can not accept any offer that would place even greater economic pressure on those who are struggling most to get by.
We are deeply concerned with the current climate of our University. To prefer such empty posturing over an opportunity to improve the actual quality of our institution indicates, we feel, a serious perseverance of priorities. We address this to you because you are in a position to help us correct our trajectory. We hope that you will promote education, rather than pay it lip service for the sole purpose of capital gain. Let's keep KU a college, not create a corporation. Will you restore our rightful interests, or will you continue to lead us in our current direction?
Sincerely,

COMMENTARY
Business crimes have humble beginnings
SCOTT SHORTEN opinion@kansan.com
Last week, FBI Special Agent Robert Hernidon's talk for the Sutton Ethics Lecture focused on fraud, bribery, embezzlement and deception in the white-collar arena, some of which strike particularly close to home — a pharmacist's scheme to siphon medicine from cancer patients to line his pockets with $19 million.
After getting past the shock and revulsion from such stories, we wonder how such vile, repulsive humans can exist. Herdon's message theorized how these breaches of trust originate in the minds of their perpetrators. He suggested that atrocities derive from the alignment of three elements: Presentation of opportunity, justification of their actions and possession of greed. When all these ingredients are present, and a strong set of moral standards is absent, bad things happen.
Though it seems impossible that these types of people were once aspiring professionals like the rest of us, we would be wise to acknowledge that they, too, were once decent human beings. How, then, did they stray so far from the moral path? It seems reasonable to suspect that their bad habits grew from humble origins. Herndon's topic becomes relevant here. We regularly face opportunities to cheat, lie, steal, coerce and manipulate for personal advantage. Granted, the things that tempt us at this point in our lives will probably neither injure thousands of people nor make us extravagantly rich, but minor transgressions can quickly turn into habits that ensnare otherwise good people into lifestyles of depravity. Every time a person commits a questionable act, it becomes easier to do it again and to become callous to morals. This downward spiral continues until their face appears on the front page of the newspaper with a story about their utter corruption and immorality, all to the great embarrassment of their community and family. Thus, great offenses may grow from seemingly trivial ones.
There is hope. Our manner of conduct now will form the mold for decades to come. The habits we learn (and unlearn) will be the ones we still practice later. So, don't merely consider the fact that the issue you're grappling with is not of profound significance at this moment. Consider the fact that your slight aberration from principle may be the beginning of a long downward slide into the depths of dishonor.
Remember, even the most crooked people were once just regular people who thought they were basically honest and good. They never imagined they would one day be capable of carrying out the treachery that they have. We can't make that same mistake. We need to realize that the potential exists within each of us and take measures to prevent it.

Five Kansas teens charged in plan to shoot up school
BY ROXANA HEGEMAN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
COLUMBUS — Five teenagers were charged Monday with threatening to carry out a shooting spree at their southeast Kansas high school in an alleged plot that authorities said was foiled after details appeared online.
peared blime.
Prosecutors charged Charles "Coy" New, 18, Robert Hunt, 17, Caleb Byrd and James Tillman, both 16, and Andrew Jaeger, 15, each with one count of incitement to riot and one count of making a criminal threat. All five appeared in court Monday, where Judge Robert Fleming set bond at
$50,000 for New, who was charged as an adult. The four juveniles were being held until a status hearing on May 3.
New would be under house arrest if he were to post bond.
"These are serious allegations and they scared me as I read them." Fleming said.
However, Fleming said Assistant Attorney General Stephen Maxwell's request to set New's bond at $500,000 was excessive.
"At this point, the state is very concerned with public safety," Maxwell told the judge.
Maxwell told the judge If convicted, the teens could face seven to 23 months in jail on the charge of incitement to riot and five to 17 months in jail
on the charge of making a criminal threat. Each charge also carries a fine of up to $100,000.
Families of the five youths filled the courtroom during the hearing. One family passed a package of tissues around. Another woman wailed just minutes before the hearing began after the bailiff handed the family some court papers.
by some court attorney General Deputy Attorney General Eric Rucker said it would be premature to say whether more charges will be filed because the investigation continues. "It is a very fluid case," Rucker said
"We have not ferreted out all the facts, but we are comfortable with the charges filed today," he said.

Chief Justice asks for investigation
BY JOHN HANNA THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TOPEKA — Supreme Court Chief Justice Kay McFarland asked Monday for an investigation into Justice Lawton Nuss' conversation with two senators related to a pending school finance lawsuit.
McFarland made her request in a letter to the state Commission on Judicial Qualifications, a 14-member panel charged with investigating allegations of judicial misconduct.
judicial misconduct There are no known cases in Kansas of a justice being disciplined publicly for misconduct. The court would make the final decision on what action to take against Nuss. Its options include public censure, suspension or removal.
In a statement, McFarland said she sought the investigation because, "the public trust and confidence in our judiciary is vital to our system of government."
Gov. Kathleen Sebelius praised McFarland for a "prompt response."
response.
"Personally, I'm shocked and angry with Justice Nuss' inappropriate actions in this matter," Sebelius said in a statement. "We must make sure we don't let this issue get in the way of the very important work before us; making sure every Kansas child receives a quality education to prepare them for the future."
Nuss removed himself Thursday from further proceedings in the 1999 lawsuit against the state by parents and administrators in Dodge City and Salina. Because
of Supreme Court orders last year, legislators still face a mandate to increase spending on public schools.
Nuss' decision to step aside complicated an already difficult debate over education funding, with legislators reconvening Wednesday to draft a school finance plan and finish their business for the year.
House Speaker Doug Mays, R-Topeka, has been considering appointing a special committee.
The attorney general's office began an inquiry into Nuss' conversation last week, according to four senators interviewed by an investigator.
Mays said McFarland's decision will cause him to delay making a decision on establishing a committee by at least another day.

Last game falls short
Jayhawks not up to par against boys team
BY MARK DENT

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
Sara Rogers, freshman forward, attempts to steal the ball from a Blue Valley Stars player at Moundville's game at the KU Sports complex. The Javhawkts to the Stars 2-0.
Just a few inches to the right
That was all Holly Gault would have needed to give the Jayhawks the lead against the Blue Valley Stars U-15 Boys team Monday night.
With less than 10 minutes left in the first half, Gault, who had just burned a Stars defender, received a pass from freshman Sara Rogers. Rogers' pass bounced over the defender's head, right in front of the streaking Gault, who had only the goalkeeper to beat. The junior collected the ball and dribbled next to the Stars' goalkeeper, who altered Gault's shot just enough to prevent Kansas from scoring.
Unfortunately for the Jayhawks, it was the closest they would come to scoring throughout the rest of the 2-0 loss. In the second half, the Stars dominated possession of the ball, but Kansas' defense did enough to keep their opponent from attacking the net for most of the game.
It was at the 11 minute mark that the Stars were finally able to put one between the posts. Stars forward
Kevin Madden scored easily in the center of the net while goalkeeper Julie Hanley was covering the Stars player who fed Madden the ball.
"We didn't play very good," Francis said. "This was not a great way to end the season."
Seven minutes later, the Stars scored another goal, in a game that Kansas coach Mark Francis said was not the team's best.
Although Kansas may have played less than par in their last two matches, which were both against U-15 boys teams, Francis said he was pleased with its effort as a whole this spring.
"Overall, the season's been good. The girls have worked really hard, and made strides on the field." Francis said. "Our team defense is better, and offensively everyone is on the same page."
Against Yale, Kansas had its best offensive output of the season, winning 7-2. Led by Gault's five goals and two more from junior Lacey Novak, the Jayhawks defeated a Yale team that had reached the NCAA Sweet 16 during the fall season.
Francis said the Jayhawks' best performances were against Yale and the Canadian National Team.
Hanley was the star of the show against Canada, when Kansas held the Canadians scoreless for nearly the entire game before falling 1-0. Hanley stopped a Canadian offense that was attacking for most of the game before allowing a goal on a penalty kick. The Jayhawks played Canada closer than any other team on the Canadians' college exhibition tour.
With its season over, Kansas will have four months off before it will be allowed to practice again for the regular season in the fall. For the upcoming season, the Jayhawks will welcome six freshman and will have a tentative schedule that will include tournaments in California and Alabama.

Kansas played 21 non-conference games before the Big 12 Conference schedule began with a three-game set against Baylor in mid-March.
But the Jayhawks won't let a minor detail like the grueling home stretch of their conference schedule deter them from putting more on their plates.

This afternoon, Kansas will kick off the Best of the Midwest Tournament at CommunityAmerica Ballpark in Kansas City, Kan. The first game of the five-game tournament will be the Jayhawks' 3 p.m. match-up against the Redhawks of Southeast Missouri State.
"It's a tough week for us because of the 3 o'clock games in the afternoon, which makes it tough on the kids academically," Price said.

Schedule to hamper Jayhawks
BRIAN WACKER
bwacker@kansan.com
But before you start scraping your cash together for a plane ticket to the Fiesta Bowl, take a look at next year's team and its schedule and you'll probably come to the same conclusion I did: This is a team that will be lucky to break 500.
M. MICHAEL GUILLERGO
Kerry Meier's four-touchdown performance in the annual Spring Game was exciting, especially considering the Jayhawks had a grand total of 15 passing touchdowns all of last year.
18
The defense — and in particular, the rushing defense — was Kansas' bread and butter last year. Led by Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year Nick Reid, the D allowed less than 1,000 yards of rushing and only eight rushing touchdowns in 12 games. It would have been even less than that had Kansas not played Texas, which gained 336 yards on the ground and scored four rushing touchdowns.
But the anchors of that defense — Reid, Kevin Kane, Banks Floodman, Charlton Keith, Charles Gordon and Theo Baines — have all played their last games at Memorial Stadium. Without a returning starting linebacker or half of its secondary, it's implausible to believe that Kansas will even come close to matching last season's defensive output.
The changes on offense and defense should ultimately result in a wash if Meier is able to live up the early hype.
Other tough tests will come at home against Colorado, which always plays Kansas well, Texas A&M, a team looking to prove itself legitimate after a disastrous 2005 season, and tough road games at Iowa State and Missouri, which will want to avenge three straight losses to Kansas. The remaining three games are at Baylor and at home against Oklahoma State and Kansas State. Those are games that Kansas should win, but as the Jayhawks proved against the Wildcats last season in Manhattan, the better team doesn't always come out on top.
Without its defense playing at such a high level, Kansas could have easily gone 2-9 last season. That's because the offense was an embarrassment. Whether it was terrible play-calling and personnel decisions by the coaching staff or underachieving, not-talented-enough players, the Kansas offense consistently produced inconsistency. With the emergence of Meier as at least a serviceable quarterback, it looks like the offense will show improvement. But really, anything is an improvement, compared to last year's musical chair act that played out behind center.
My prediction is that Kansas will finish the season the season at 6-6, just enough to return to the Fort Worth Bowl and beat an equally average opponent from an inferior conference.
Jayhawk fans will and should feel happy with a 3-1 record going into Big 12 Conference play, which won't offer any free lunches next season. The Big 12 North's stock is rising with Nebraska, which the Jayhawks face in Lincoln, bringing in its second top-rated recruiting class in a row and still glowing from its upset of Michigan in the Alamo Bowl. Did anyone really think the 'Huskers would stay down for long?
Look, there are literally thousands of things that could happen between now and the beginning of football season that could change the way Jayhawk fans look at next year's season. Nebraska quarterback Zak Taylor may go down with an injury. Missouri's athletics department may decide to scrap funding for its football team to cover its legal bills. Nick Reid may find a discrepancy on his ARTS Form and discover he still has another year of eligibility.
But the biggest reason Kansas won't improve upon last season's record is the schedule. First look at the non-conference schedule, which features early tests from big name teams. After two cupcakes against Northwestern State and Louisiana Monroe, the Jayhawks will go on the road to Toledo for a nationally-televised match-up, against a team that won the GMAC Bowl (comparable to the Fort Worth Bowl) and that will already have been battle-tested by an opening game against fellow Big 12 North chum Iowa State. The following week, the Bulls of South Florida will storm into Lawrence. The Bulls lost to N.C. State in the Meineke Car Care Bowl on New Year's Eve last season. But they are no strangers to playing tough non-conference games on the road. South Florida lost at Penn State by 10 points and at No. 9 Miami last season.
Bur right now, with the players that Kansas is bringing back and the tougher pre-conference schedule, it doesn't look like Jayhawk football will be moving forward next season.

OUR OPINION
Randle undeserving of athletic scholarship
Why does someone always have to be around when John Randle breaks the law?
Now some people might be saying, "How does he manage to get himself in trouble so often? Why doesn't he just walk away from these situations?" Oh, how he has tried. At least twice, in March 2004 and then the most recent incident, Randle tried leaving but they wouldn't let him. The police said he was "feeing the scene."
Why just a few weeks ago, the Wichita junior was charged with battery and disorderly conduct in connection with a fight with former teammate Jerome Kemp, marking the sixth time police have arrested the former KU running back. Some other past incidents he has been cited for include stealing beer from a convenience store, fighting outside of its Brothers Bar & Grill and peeing on a door outside the Granada, punching a manager who told him to stop.
Randle can't seem to catch a break with the football program either. Coach Mark Mangino kicked him off the team last spring after a spate of run-ins with the law. Things do not look to be changing much for the upcoming season, as well. If there is any silver lining, it's that he has retained his scholarship each year.
Naysayers contend that an athletic scholarship is a privilege and that it should be taken away from
PAGE 7A
Issue: Former KU running back John Randle's criminal record
Actually, that is an excellent question that the Athletics Department needs to answer and be accountable for. No one doubts Randle's prowess on the field but this does not justify keeping him around on scholarship. His actions deserve repercussions. Even if the scholarship is contractual, the department should be able to opt out of it. Otherwise, Randle will set a dangerous precedent in how the University handles players who cannot act responsibly off the field.
Stance: Academic scholarship students must maintain a certain GPA to keep their scholarships. Randle should have to maintain a certain code of conduct to his athletic scholarship.
Malinda Osborne for the editorial board
Randle because of his criminal record. If he isn't allowed to play on the team, why should he continue to attend the University of Kansas for free, they ask.

Letter to the new provost: GTA issues need resolution
Dear Dr. Lariviere,
The two sides have reached tentative agreement on four articles of the contract. In all four cases, these were University proposals that the GTA team chose to accept. Three of these were signed in a single negotiating session; the very same day the University team informed us that they had no intention of moving toward a compromise on any open issues, and therefore intended to initiate an impasse. Believing we were finally making progress and having given up some things in the hope that our greater priorities would be respected, the GTA team was shocked.
▼ GUEST COMMENTARY
On behalf of the GTA negotiating team, we would like to welcome you to our University. We would also like to take a moment to familiarize you with a situation here, and express our intense displeasure with the apparent values and priorities of our current administration. As you may know, negotiations between the University and its GTAs have recently reached an impasse. You may not be aware, however, of the details leading up to this event.
From the beginning of the negotiations process, the University has tried to pressure the GTA negotiating team into accepting an unfavorable contract by withholding all merit raises, and threatening to continue to do so until an agreement is reached. Considering that the existing agreement between the University and its GTAs guarantees yearly raises for all returning GTAs, we find this tactic appalling. Yet when we turned down the University's final package of outrageous proposals, we were accused in the press of sacrificing possible raises in favor of unimportant "non-economic" issues.
We do not see why negotiations should be an all-or-nothing process, nor do we feel that money is the only thing that impacts our lives or our performance as teachers.
The above situation begins to illuminate just why those other issues are incredibly important, and why it is misleading even to call them "non-economic." It was the decision of the provost to deny us our guaranteed raises. It is also the provost who has the final decision in our grievance procedure, which is the accepted avenue for contesting this sort of contract violation.
Similarly, the 10-semester limit on GTA appointments has an undeniable impact on both educational quality and the economic realities of GTAs. By firing GTAs systematically after five years, before most students can complete their Ph.D.s, the University manages to eliminate the most experienced GTAs as well as force active GTAs to hurry through their degree programs, leaving them overworked and psychologically strained. Many of the best graduate students must choose to leave KU after completing their Masters' for programs that offer better funding opportunities. We were told, however, that, because GTAs who have reached their 10th semester can apply to become lecturers, at which time they would be allowed to maintain the same job responsibilities for a smaller salary and without a tuition waiver, we should not complain about the current situation. It was further explained to us that we could even see this as a benefit, because most universities will assume a lectureship constitutes a promotion, and will consider our applications more favorably because of this.

For an institution whose purported mission is higher education, this is a surprising position to articulate. Not only does this imply a willingness to mislead our peers in the academy about the nature of employment here, it also allows KU to claim that one third of its courses are taught by GTAs, when many more are also led
by students who merely hold an alternate title. We're sure we do not need to tell you that this is dishonest, and represents a clear preference for the appearance of quality rather than its actual existence.

Art Ban, business manager
864-4462 or adddirector@kansan.com
But other issues aside, let it be known that KU's salary offer was by no means something we could accept. The minimum salary the offer proposed was $3,000 short of KU's own estimate of our cost of attendance, and the annual increases showed no sign of closing that gap. We doubt we need to explain that a starving employee, or one who is forced to take on several jobs, is probably not able to perform at her full potential either as a student or an instructor.
Furthermore, KU's proposal exacerbated the inequality between GTAs by insuring those at the bottom of the salary range would never feel the benefits of a raise for good performance, while those who make the most would continue to see raises each year. We think rewarding employees for exceptional job performance encourages GTAs to give their all, and we certainly can not accept any offer that would place even greater economic pressure on those who are struggling most to get by.
Milcob Gibson, general manager, nova adviser

We are deeply concerned with the current climate of our University. To prefer such empty posturing over an opportunity to improve the actual quality of our institution indicates, we feel, a serious perversion of priorities. We address this to you because you are in a position to help us correct our trajectory. We hope that you will promote education, rather than pay it lip service for the sole purpose of capital gain. Let's keep KU a college, not create a corporation. Will you restore our rightful interests, or will you continue to lead us in our current direction?

Business crimes have humble beginnings
Though it seems impossible that these types of people were once aspiring professionals like the rest of us, we would be wise to acknowledge that they, too, were once decent human beings. How, then, did they stray so far from the moral path? It seems reasonable to suspect that their bad habits grew from humble origins. Hermdon's topic becomes relevant here. We regularly face opportunities to cheat, lie, steal, coerce and manipulate for personal advantage. Granted, the things that tempt us at this point in our lives will probably neither injure thousands of people nor make us extravagantly rich, but minor transgressions can quickly turn into habits that ensnare otherwise good people into lifestyles of depravity. Every time a person commits a questionable act, it becomes easier to do it again and to become callous to morals. This downward spiral continues until their face appears on the front page of the newspaper with a story about their utter corruption and immorality, all to the great embarrassment of their community and family. Thus, great offenses may grow from seemingly trivial ones.
COMMENTARY
After getting past the shock and revulsion from such stories, we wonder how such vile, repulsive humans can exist. Herdson's message theorized how these breaches of trust originate in the minds of their perpetrators. He suggested that atrocities derive from the alignment of three elements: Presentation of opportunity, justification of their actions and possession of greed. When all these ingredients are present, and a strong set of moral standards is absent, bad things happen.

Jayhawks not up to par against boys team

Just a few inches to the right.
That was all Holly Gault would have needed to give the Jayhawks the lead against the Blue Valley Stars U-15 Boys team Monday night.
Sara Rogers, freshman forward, attempts to steal the ball from a Blue Valley Stars play atMonday's game at the KU Sports complex. The Jayhawks lost to the Stars 2-0.
With less than 10 minutes left in the first half, Gault, who had just burned a Stars defender, received a pass from freshman Sara Rogers. Rogers' pass bounced over the defender's head, right in front of the streaking Gault, who had only the goalkeeper to beat. The junior collected the ball and dribbled next to the Stars' goalkeeper, who altered Gault's shot just enough to prevent Kansas from scoring.
Unfortunately for the Jayhawks, it was the closest they would come to scoring throughout the rest of the 2-0 loss. In the second half, the Stars dominated possession of the ball, but Kansas' defense did enough to keep their opponent from attacking the net for most of the game.
Kevin Madden scored easily in the center of the net while goalkeeper Julie Hanley was covering the Stars player who fed Madden the ball.
It was at the 11 minute mark that the Stars were finally able to put one between the posts. Stars forward
Seven minutes later, the Stars scored another goal, in a game that Kansas coach Mark Francis said was not the team's best.
"We didn't play very good," Francis said. "This was not a great way to end the season."
Although Kansas may have played less than par in their last two matches, which were both against U-15 boys teams, Francis said he was pleased with its effort as a whole this spring.
"Overall, the season's been good. The girls have worked really hard, and made strides on the field," Francis said. "Our team defense is better, and offensively everyone is on the same page."
Against Yale, Kansas had its best offensive output of the season, winning 7-2. Led by Gault's five goals and two more from junior Lacey Novak, the Jayhawks defeated a Yale team that had reached the NCAA Sweet 16 during the fall season.
Francis said the Jayhawks' best performances were against Yale and the Canadian National Team.
Hanley was the star of the show against Canada, when Kansas held the Canadians scoreless for nearly the entire game before falling 1-0. Hanley stopped a Canadian offense that was attacking for most of the game before allowing a goal on a penalty kick. The Jayhawks played Canada closer than any other team on the Canadians' college exhibition tour.
With its season over, Kansas will have four months off before it will be allowed to practice again for the regular season in the fall. For the upcoming season, the Jayhawks will welcome six freshman and will have a tentative schedule that will include tournaments in California and Alabama.

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Kansas played 21 non-conference games before the Big 12 Conference schedule began with a three-game set against Baylor in mid-March.
This afternoon, Kansas will kick off the Best of the Midwest Tournament at CommunityAmerica Ballpark in Kansas City, Kan. The first game of the five-game tournament will be the Jayhawks' 3 p.m. match-up against the Redhawks of Southeast Missouri State.
But the Jayhawks won't let a minor detail like the grueling home stretch of their conference schedule deter them from putting more on their plates.
Today and Wednesday's midweek games will mark the fifth straight week that Kansas
has interrupted its conference groove to take on non-conference. RPI-boosting opponents.
"At this point in time, we've got our RPI right around the top 40 in the county," coach Ritch Price said. "Those midweek games are the reason we keep moving up."
Although the frequent breaks in Big 12 action have hardly bothered the Jayhawks — they've only lost one midweek game this season — the Best of the Midwest plays out differently than the normal schedule
"It's a tough week for us because of the 3 o'clock games in the afternoon, which makes it tough on the kids academically." Price said.
Despite the games' importance to maintaining their high RPL-ranking. Price said he

Schedule to hamper Jayhawks
BRIAN WACKER
bwacker@kansan.com
Kerry Meier's four-touchdown performance in the annual Spring Game was exciting, especially considering the Jayhawks had a grand total of 13 passing touchdowns all of last year.
But before you start scraping your cash together for a plane ticket to the Fiesta Bowl, take a look at next year's team and its schedule and you'll probably come to the same conclusion I did: This is a team that will be lucky to break .500.
The defense — and in particular, the rushing defense — was Kansas' bread and butter last year. Led by Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year Nick Reid, the D allowed less than 1,000 yards of rushing and only eight rushing touchdowns in 12 games. It would have been even less than that had Kansas not played Texas, which gained 336 yards on the ground and scored four rushing touchdowns.
But the anchors of that defense — Reid, Kevin Kane, Banks Floodman, Charlton Keith, Charles Gordon and Theo Baines — have all played their last games at Memorial Stadium. Without a returning starting linebacker or half of its secondary, it's implausible to believe that Kansas will even come close to matching last season's defensive output.
Without its defense playing at such a high level, Kansas could have easily gone 2-9 last season. That's because the offense was an embarrassment. Whether it was terrible play-calling and personnel decisions by the coaching staff or underachieving, not-talented-enough players, the Kansas offense consistently produced inconsistency. With the emergence of Meier as at least a serviceable quarterback, it looks like the offense will show improvement. But really, anything is an improvement, compared to last year's musical chair act that played out behind center.
The changes on offense and defense should ultimately result in a wash if Meier is able to live up the early hype.
But the biggest reason Kansas won't improve upon last season's record is the schedule. First look at the non-conference schedule, which features early tests from big name teams. After two cupcakes against Northwestern State and Louisiana Monroe, the Jayhawks will go on the road to Toledo for a nationally-televised match-up, against a team that won the GMAC Bowl (comparable to the Fort Worth Bowl) and that will already have been battle-tested by an opening game against fellow Big 12 North chum Iowa State. The following week, the Bulls of South Florida will storm into Lawrence. The Bulls lost to N.C. State in the Meineke Car Care Bowl on New Year's Eve last season. But they are no strangers to playing tough non-conference games on the road. South Florida lost at Penn State by 10 points and at No. 9 Miami last season.
Other tough tests will come at home against Colorado, which always plays Kansas well, Texas A&M, a team looking to prove itself legitimate after a disastrous 2005 season, and tough road games at Iowa State and Missouri, which will want to avenge three straight losses to Kansas. The remaining three games are at Baylor and at home against Oklahoma State and Kansas State. Those are games that Kansas should win, but as the Jayhawks proved against the Wildcats last season in Manhattan, the better team doesn't always come out on top.
Jayhawk fans will and should feel happy with a 3-1 record going into Big 12 Conference play, which won't offer any free lunches next season. The Big 12 North's stock is rising with Nebraska, which the Jayhawks face in Lincoln, bringing in its second top-rated recruiting class in a row and still glowing from its upset of Michigan in the Alamo Bowl. Did anyone really think the 'Huskers would stay down for long?
My prediction is that Kansas will finish the season the season at 6-6, just enough to return to the Fort Worth Bowl and beat an equally average opponent from an inferior conference.
Look, there are literally thousands of things that could happen between now and the beginning of football season that could change the way Jayhawk fans look at next year's season. Nebraska quarterback Zak Taylor may go down with an injury. Missouri's athletics department may decide to scrap funding for its football team to cover its legal bills. Nick Reid may find a discrepancy on his ARTS Form and discover he still has another year of eligibility.
Bur right now, with the players that Kansas is bringing back and the tougher pre-conference schedule, it doesn't look like Jayhawk football will be moving forward next season.
It's hard to when you're stuck in neutral.

America's pasttime losing favor with fans
WASHINGTON — More than half of America's baseball fans say the sport has not done enough to curb the use of steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs, an AP-AOL Sports poll found.
And two-thirds of baseball fans either have unfavorable or mixed views about Barry Bonds, who is under a cloud of suspicion about steroids use as he chases baseball's career record for home runs.
The poll found that 53 percent say Major League Baseball has fallen short on keeping the sport drug-free.
Many fans say Bonds should not be allowed into baseball's Hall of Fame if he's found to have used steroids. But the timing of any alleged use appears to be crucial in public support for Bonds getting into the Hall.

Four of five series end two games to one
No sweeps week in Big 12
BY SHAWN SHROYER
sshroyer@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTSWRIER
The Jayhawks went 4-1 last week and retained the fourth spot in the Big 12 standings. Kansas outscored its opponents in its first four games of the week, 46-18, before a one-run loss to Kansas State on Sunday.
With its series victory against Kansas State, Kansas won its third Big 12 series of the season, matching its total from last season.
Clutch hitting by sophomore outfielder John Allman and sophomore third baseman Erik Morrison along with a gutsy pitching performance by senior right-hander Ricky Fairchild helped Kansas clinch the Kansas State series after just two games.
On Friday, Allman led the Kansas offense, going 3-for-4, with two runs and two RBI. He came a home run shy of hitting for the cycle in the 8-5 victory.
On Saturday, Fairchild overcame tightness in his hamstring in the second inning to go six innings and earn his first victory since March 5. Morrison drove in most of Kansas' runs in the 5-2 victory. He went 3-for-4 with three RBI.
The Jayhawks out-hit the Wildcats 12-8 on Sunday, but beat themselves with four errors in the field and lost 5-4.
This week, Kansas will face Southeast Missouri State and Creighton in the Best of the Midwest Tournament at CommunityAmerica Ballpark in Kansas City, Kan., on Tuesday and Wednesday.
This weekend, Kansas will play host to No. 14 Oklahoma in a three-game set at Hoglund Ballpark. Kansas lost the series last season in Norman, Okla., two games to one, but could gain some ground on third-place Oklahoma in the Big 12 standings with a series victory this year.

Pitcher of the series: Senior right-hander PJ. Sandoval (6-1) showed excellent control in his victory on Sunday. In 7.1 innings, Sandoval scattered eight hits, didn't walk a single batter and struck out four. He was charged with both Texas Tech runs, but only one was earned.

Note: Oklahoma's victory on Sunday gave it 10 in a row. The winning streak is Oklahoma's longest since 1998.

Mach was hit by a pitch in the third inning of Friday's game and responded with a solo shot to lead off the sixth. On Sunday, Mach tied Nebraska junior outfielder Luke Gorsett for the Big 12 lead in home runs with No. 14.
Pitcher of the series: On Saturday, Oklahoma was still searching for its first road victory since March 12. Senior left-hander Brae Wright came to the rescue. Wright (5-2) left no doubt as to the outcome of the game with a complete-game shutout. Wright surrendered only five hits and one walk, while striking out five in the winning effort.
Note: The series victory for Oklahoma State was its second conference series victory in a row and its first road series victory of the season.

Locals shine in Gold Zone

throw. Some of the biggest names from the track and field world converged on Lawrence to take part in the afternoon-long showcase.
Some of the most exciting performances of the day came not from world-renowned sprinters, but from homegrown middle-distance runners.
The men's invitational mile run featured six competitors
from in-state colleges, with four Jayhawks among them. Although none of the runners could top Jim Ryun's famed Kansas Relays record of 3:54, three athletes qualified for the Division-1 Regional meet. The qualifying time is 4:06.
Cowley County's Daniel Maina won the race, but was trailed closely by an eager pack of runners that included all four Jayhawk participants. Kansas sophomore Colby Wissel finished third in 4:05, just in front of Jayhawk seniors Cameron Schwehr and Joshy Madathil followed by sophomore Paul Hefferon. Wissel was the only Jayhawk to qualify for the regional meet.
The race was close until the end, and most of the runners were bunched tightly together for the duration of the contest. The competition was so
tight that unaffiliated runners Ben Houltberg and Chris Mulvaney were forced off of the track, resulting in disqualifications.
The Jayhawks didn't appear fazed by the magnitude of the Gold Zone II, and were just grateful to be a part of such a respected event.
"It's tough that I couldn't win, but having great competition like this, you really can't complain at all," Schwehr said of his final race in the relays.
Wissel said he was just as proud of his school and teammates as he was his record-breaking time.
"It's just a lot of fun out here in your hometown with your teammates, competing in front of a home crowd," Wissel said.

Gold Zone II races smash hurdles, 800 meter records

Jeremy Mims was a member of the Kansas Track & Field team until last year. During his track and field career, Mims was awarded with numerous medals and accolades.
Race records were shattered as a plethora of Jayhawk fans watched from the stands of Memorial Stadium on Saturday afternoon for the Gold Zone II portion of the 2006 Kansas Relavs.
He ran the 800-meter run as a member of Team Nike at this year's Relays.
The most memorable of these was being a part of last year's All-American Team.
As a sophomore, Julius Jiles drew much praise and hype during the weekend from fans and fellow athletes. Jiles, who was named athlete of the meet at last year's Relays, competed in the 400-meter hurdles this year.
Mims ran an exceptional race in the 800-meter to finish third, just behind two runners who broke the previous Relays record. Mims' Nike teammate, Kevin Hicks, won the race in a record time of 1:47:58.
The race broke evenly with about seven of ten runners together at the first turn. That was until Mims, Hicks and Brandon
The race broke evenly with about seven of ten runners together at the first turn. That was until Mims, Hicks and Brandon Hodges broke out of the pack to establish themselves as the top three runners in the race. Mims stayed in second place position until the final 100 meters of the race, when Kansas State's Christian Smith rocketed from the back to take the silver.
Mims stayed in second place position until the final 100 meters of the race, when Kansas State's Christian Smith rocketed from the back to take the silver.
Hodges broke out of the pack to establish themselves as the top three runners in the race.
Smith also broke the previous Relays 800-meter record by .31 seconds with a time of 1:47:91. Any other year, the time would have easily won the race. But in 2006, the harsh competition only yielded him second place, is a position Smith has become accustomed to.
"I've been coming to the Kansas Relays since high school and I've come in second four times. I'd like to win one eventually." Smith said.
Mims said he was pleased with his performance, but wished he could have won the race.
"I really wanted to get a victory for my fans and friends out here. In the years to come, I'll be better prepared," he said.
Hicks led the entire race, and was not the only runner that made his respective race at the Relays look easy. Bershawn Jackson, the U.S. Champion in the 400-meter hurdles, destroyed the field on the way to breaking his own Relay record.
"It was a perfect race, exactly how me and my coach planned it." Jackson said. Jackson ran a 48.34 which beat his 2005 Relays record of 48.67.
Jiles sped out of his stance to a great start in the Jackson dominated race but slowed down once he reached the hurdles. Jiles finished in 8th place with a time of 52.81. He was happy with his time and overwhelmed with the fan support.
"When you hear that crowd yelling and hollering, it gives you an extreme boost to cross that finish line a little faster." Jiles said.

Big 12 teams find friendship

"When you see each other during every meet, you become friends," Kansas freshman Stephanie Horton said. "When you are going somewhere where you don't know anyone, it's nice to have people to talk to."
At the Kansas Relays, competition between the women discus throwers of the Big 12 Conference was a little different. There was more camaraderie than in most competitive sports.
During the competition, athletes from Big 12 schools Kansas State, Nebraska and others cheered for one another.
Horton competed in the discus along with junior Abby Emsick and senior Denita Young.
In the first flight, Young's first two throws were foul. However, for her third throw, she made some adjustments and threw the disc 44.03 me
in the first flight, Young's first two throws were foul. However, for her third throw, she made some adjustments and threw the discus 44.03 meters, which was good enough to propel her into the finals. Young credited a position move for her success.
Emsick's best throw was 41.25 meters and Horton's best throw was 41.90 meters. Neither of the athletes were pleased with their performance.
"I scooted over. I am a javelin thrower and I go straight instead of spinning, so my coach is trying to get me to spin." Young said.
ters, which was good enough to propel her into the finals. Young credited a position move for her success.
For the finals, the qualifying distance was 43.70 meters. Sand-wiced between two foul throws, Young's second throw was 43.42 meters. It was enough to finish in ninth place.
"Denita did real well; she is a javelin thrower and she competed in the discus for the team the first time this year." Kansas assistant coach Andy Kokhanovsky said. "Our other girls did not compete up to their potential."
Kokhanovsky said the problems were tactical, not physical. The throwers were ready to compete, he said, but they just did not do well.
"It was okay, it is something to get my mind off javelin, I just come out and enjoy it." Young said.
Junior Dace Ruskule of Nebraska won the event with a throw of 56.97 meters. Missouri Baptist's sophomore Sheruelle Nichols followed with 49.26 meters.

Battle 'disappointed' with finishes
BY EVAN KAFARAKIS

KANSAN SPORTWRITE
Outside of Memorial Stadium, Sheldon Battle struggled for his best performance against some of the country's best athletes.
Competing in the shot put and discus throw, the senior thrower skipped competing in the hammer to focus his attention on those two events.
The shot put event was a part of
Gold Zone II on Saturday. Battle competed in the throwing event.
He had a tough time keeping up initially.
He competed against Christian Cantwell, who was No. 5 in the World Championships in 2005 at the shot put, and Dan Taylor, who placed sixth at the Olympic trials.
Battle put the blame on technique, a key element of shot put.
Battle finished third at 63 feet, 10 and 1/2 inches. This result was more than six feet short of Cantwell, who won the event.
Cantwell said Battle was better than he showed on Saturday and just needed to keep training cleanly.
Battle next took the field to throw in the men's college discus.
"I was a little disappointed with my distances." Battle said.
Cantwell had the technique on Saturday.
Battle's personal best in the shot put is 68 feet, 8 and 1/2 inches.
Battle took first place with a toss of 179 feet, 2 inches, but still seemed unhappy with his distances.
His first-place throw of 70 feet, 3 and 3/4 inches was a Kansas Relays record and the best throw in the world this year.

"It will come," Battle said. "Just have to be patient and keep working hard."
Along with Battle on the winners podium at second place stood junior Cody Roberts.

Roberts' second-place throw traveled a distance of 171 feet, 8 inches.

"The women have been impressive this weekend," Kansas track and field coach Stanley Redwine said.
The event was part of Gold Zone II.
The women's 4x100-meter relay team was victorious with a time of 45.73 seconds in its effort Saturday.
The team consisted of freshman Victoria Howard, sophomore Crystal Manning and seniors Charisse Bacchus and Tiffany Cherry.
"I think our times were good," Manning said.
The team pulled out a close victory in one of the better races throughout the day.
"Everybody worked up to their ability and God helped us through it," Manning said.
"If it wasn't for the crowd. our
times would not have been as fast, and we may not have even won," Manning said.
Bacchus also took part in the women's long jump. She placed second with a leap of 20 feet, 1/2 inches.
The women's distance medley
team was also victorious on Friday. In fact, it wasn't even close.
The squad beat the field by 15 seconds, winning with a time of 12:04.96.

As Ladji Doucourie made his way off the track after winning the 110-meter men's invitational hurdles race, he was at a loss for both words and breath.
"A great race," Doucoure said as he took a deep breath and began to cool off.
The event's participants were not the only ones left gasping for air after the race. The top three runners finished within mere inches of one another, giving the 26,000-plus fans in attendance a reason to hold their breath.
Doucoure, a former Olympic competitor and 2005 World Champion in the 110-meter hurdles, finished the event in 13.53 seconds to capture the title for Team Nike.
Doucoure blasted out of the gate and
David Payne and Team Nike's Joel Brown nearly matched Doucoure pace-for-pace down the length of the track, but came up just short, finishing second and third with times of 13.577 and 13.580 seconds, respectively.
Julius Jiles, Kansas City sophomore, was the only current Jayhawk to compete in the event. Jiles did not get off to a strong start, and was never able to catch up with the more seasoned members of the field.
showed remarkable staying power, never surrendering his lead.
"My start wasn't the best in the world, but I started to close in the end," Jiles said. "Overall, it wasn't a bad race."
Jiles finished in fourth place with a time of 14.23 seconds, just a bit slower than his best performance of 2006 at last month's Tulsa Duels.
Former Kansas runner Anson Jackson brought up the rear and came dangerously close to knocking down the
hurdles on several occasions. Jackson, who last ran as a Jayhawk in 2003, managed to finish in 14.48 seconds.
Both Jackson and David Payne competed unattached to any particular sponsor. Kansas senior Aaron Thompson was slated to run in the event, but instead participated in the college-only 110-meter hurdles race.
The significance of being able to compete against such stellar runners was not lost on Jiles, who said he was honored to be participating in the Kansas Relais.
The French-born Doucoure was one of the biggest stars to participate in this year's Kansas Relays. At the 2004 Olympics, Doucoure finished eighth in the 110-meter hurdles.
"The atmosphere is great here," Jiles said. "It's definitely one of the best meets I've been to in a long time."

"We're exited to play Colorado again — we had a good match with them a couple of weeks ago so we are exited to play them again," Smith said. "I think if we win that we play Baylor, and that can only be positive for us, so we're only looking at
The Jayhawks finished the regular season with a record of 13-10. They were 4-7 in Big 12 competition. Colorado finished the season with a record of 10-9. It was also 4-7 in Big 12 play.
The Kansas tennis team holds the No. 8 spot going into the Big 12 Tournament.
The Jayhawks will face the No. 9-seeded Colorado Buffaloes in the first round of the tournament on Thursday in Waco, Texas. The match is scheduled for 6 p.m.
Kansas has faced Colorado this season already, in Boulder, Colo. Kansas was down 3-2 in that match with only two single matches left to be played. The Jayhawks overcame the deficit and rallied back to win the match, 4-3.
"We have nothing to lose and we're going to go in there and do the best we can," sophomore Stephanie Smith said.
"It was a tough crowd at Texas A&M, but it was a fun atmosphere to play in," sophomore Lauren Hommell said. "Every position battled, but we just didn't come away with any wins."
Hommell lost her match against Texas by the score of 6-1, 6-1 on Sunday. She lost her singles match against Texas A&M by the score of 6-3, 6-4 on Saturday.
the tournament with a positive attitude right now."
Smith was right. If Kansas were to defeat Colorado in the first-round match, it would advance to the second round and face No. 5 Baylor, which has a first-round bye. The Bears also hold the No. 1 spot in the Big 12 Tournament.
Kansas will come into the tournament losing two consecutive matches, and three out of its last four. Kansas finished the regular season last weekend in Austin and College Station, Texas. Kansas lost to Texas and Texas A&M last weekend, by the score of 6-1 in both matches.
The only Kansas points came from the singles matches. Senior Christine Skoda won her singles match against Texas, and freshman Edina Horvath won her singles match against Texas A&M.

Attorney asks for records to attack victim's credibility
DUKE LACROSSE
BY AARON BEARD THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DURHAM, N.C. — The attorney for one of two Duke lacrosse players charged with raping a stripper demanded on Monday that prosecutors turn over the accuser's medical, legal and education records for use in attacking her credibility.
Kirk Osborn, who represents player Reade Seligmann, said the material will provide "rich sources of information for impeaching the complaining witnesses."
Osborn also asked a judge to hold a pretrial hearing to "determine if the complaining witness is even credible enough to provide reliable testimony."
This request is based on the fact
The defense motions asked for information about the accuser's mental health, any hospital commitments and drug abuse,and information about her probation and parole
that the complaining witness has a history of criminal activity and behavior, which includes alcohol abuse, drug abuse, and dishonesty, all conduct which indicate mental, emotional and/or physical problems, which affect her credibility as a witness," the defense said in court papers.
District Attorney Mike Nifong,
who has not granted an interview
about the case in weeks, refused to comment.
Last week, Seligmann, of Essex Fells, N.J., was indicted on rape charges along with teammate Collin Finnerty of Garden City, N.Y.
The motions do not cite any specific evidence to support its claims about the accuser, and Osborn declined to answer questions about the court filings.
Authorities believe they were two of the three white men who the 27-year-old black woman said raped her in a bathroom of a house March 13.
Defense attorneys have trumpeted DNA test results they say found no link between the 46 players tested and the accuser. Nifong asked a private lab to perform additional tests on the samples. The results are not expected before May 15, Nifong told a Durham newspaper last weekend.
In Monday's motions, Osborn wrote that no forensic evidence links Seligmann to the alleged crimes, based on the limited information provided to the defense by prosecutors. The case is based only on the accuser's testimony, and she has given conflicting accounts to authorities. Osborn wrote.
The defense motions asked for information about the accuser's mental
health, any hospital commitments and drug abuse, and information about her probation and parole.
Monday's motions were the latest sign the defense plans to attack the credibility of the accuser, a 27-year-old single mother and student at nearby North Carolina Central University.

would not have his players take batting practice before the game due to the amount of class time the extra practice would cause them to miss.
Each of Kansas' games were at 3 p.m., today's early game and Wednesday's second match-up.
Kansas
Last year, the Jayhawks fared well in the independent minor league ballpark, packing 24 runs on the board in just two games against New Mexico State and Sacramento State.
This year's tournament will bring out six teams, including Kansas, Kansas State and Missouri from the Big 12, while Southeast Missouri from the Ohio Valley Conference and Missouri State and Creighton both from the Missouri Valley round out the rest of the teams.
Because of its overall record, Kansas is in sole possession of the fourth spot in the Big 12 for the second consecutive week. At the plate, the Jayhawks are reaching their stride, hitting .291 as a team with 51 round trips to show for it. Senior outfielder Gus Milner had a particularly explosive weekend, notching a .400 average at the plate, scoring three times and driving in a pair.
On the mound, junior right-hander Brendan McNamara (1-1, 3-26) is sited to throw tonight's game after his midweek victory last week against North Dakota State.
Fresh off another Big 12 series victory, Kansas took care of business against K-State with ease before dropping the third on Sunday. The opportunity for its first Big 12 series sweep of the year was plagued with a season-high four errors.
Southeast Missouri (15-22, 6-9 OVC)
The Redhawks hit a worse patch of luck last weekend, falling one game to two against Austin Peay. Southeast Missouri currently ranks ninth out of the 10 Ohio Valley Conference teams.
Junior second baseman Omar Padilla pulled his weight in the series defeat, hitting 6-12 with a pair of runs scored against Austin Peay.
On the mound, the Redhawks will start senior lefty Derek Herbig (2-2, 5.45) this afternoon against the Jayhawks.
Creighton (22-14, 7-8)
This was to be the second meeting between Kansas and Creighton this season before the Mar. 22 game was canceled because of inclement weather and never rescheduled.
The Bluejays, of the Missouri Valley Conference, also just dropped a series one game to two last weekend against to Evansville. Last week, Creighton also fell off the Baseball America poll, even though the team lost to No. 4 Nebraska 4-2 April 18. Senior catcher Zach Degas led the way against Evansville. Even though his efforts came up short, Degas still went 4-10 and scored five times that weekend. He leads the overall offense as well with nine home runs and 37 RBI. Creighton hasn't announced its starting pitcher for Wednesday's game, but a catching connection associated with Creighton will soon benefit Kansas.
Joe Servais, son of Creighton Coach Ed Servais, has already signed to catch for Kansas next year after finishing his eligibility at Garden City Community College in the spring.

Server repair under way

Some KU students were still experiencing e-mail problems Tuesday, after the power outage from Sunday night's hailstorm shut down campus computer systems early Monday morning.
Thelma Simons, Information Technology Service manager, said that it was difficult to link the storm directly to Tuesday's computer problems, because the Information Technology Help Desk had received no complaints. Simons recommended that students report problems to the help desk so the specific issue could be tracked down.
E-mail was the first service in line to be restored and was fixed around 6 a.m. Monday. Some services, such as the Kyou Portal, were not restored until the afternoon.
The power outage from Sunday night's storm made several employees from the KU Information Technology Service get up at 1 a.m. to start repairing the network.
After the storm, two feeds from Westar Energy from opposite sides of town were down, which is unusual, Simons said.
Joseph Harrington, associate professor of English, said three of his students had problems with their KU e-mail accounts Tuesday. One student's e-mail was sent back to him from Harrington, tagged as an "undeliverable message."
Harrington said the problem wasn't because of a full e-mail box, but the e-mail eventually came through.

Patricia Moody, medical technologist at Watkins Health Center laboratory, tests antibiotic sensitivities in petri dishes. Moody said the most exciting occurrences in the lab were when they discover and isolate unusual organisms. Her favorite was "cat scratch fever," which is an actual organism, not just a song.

Watkins lab sees it all

KODSON STAFF WRITER
As a child in western Kansas, Patricia Moody used to mix things in the bathroom to see what would happen. She said she was lucky she never came across anything dangerous.
As a medical technologist at Watkins Memorial Health Center, Moody regularly sees dangerous diseases in the center's laboratory while examining petri dish cultures of lab samples.
The five medical technologists at Watkins have more than 100 years of combined experience, said Susan Iversen, medical technologist and lab supervisor. From June 2004 to July 2005, the Watkins lab served 12,600 individual patients and completed more than 16,000 in-house tests, 2,000 more than the year before. About one-third of all Watkins patients, who total more than 400 some days, visit the lab.
"Things that excite us, other people think we're weird." Moody said.
The lab collected blood from 27 potential mumps patients, but the disease is so rare the lab cannot run the tests themselves. After mumps was confirmed on the University's campus, the state stopped running tests from this area and saved the necessary test materials for other regions, Iversen said.
The lab recently received new equipment to test for tuberculosis, the only such equipment at a student health facility in the state, said Myra Strother, staff physician. The test will help international students meet the TB screening requirement without having to travel off campus for the test.

STUDENT SENATE
Referendum polling causes stir
BY NICOLIE KELLEY
nkelley@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
"Oh don't worry about the other stuff. Just click 'yes' here," is what Tom Cox claims the organizers of an unofficial polling site were saying to students when they stopped at the site's table on election day.
Cox, a Shawnee sophomore, was campaigning on election day for Delta Force in front of Budig Hall. He said within a 35 to 45 minute span at least five people he stopped told him they'd already voted at the athlete's table, but didn't know what they were voting on because the people at the table
told them where to click.
Student athletes in support of the referendum to increase women's and non-revenue sports fees set up a campaign table complete with computers for students to vote.
Cox said that he was not "anti-athletics" but he was upset with the way the athletes handled themselves during the election. He said their behavior was unethical and showed how little they respected the election process.
Chris Jones, Iowa City, Iowa senior and member of the Student Athlete Advisory Committee, said the accusations brought up against the student athletes were "incredibly false" and "ridiculous."
Jones said that during the elections the people working at the athletics table were continually asking questions to the on-site elections commission members, making sure everything they were doing was OK. He said that they never heard any complaints about anything that being done, and that people were getting upset because more people chose to vote at the athletes table than any other.
He said he didn't think the athletes should be punished just because more people cared about their issue. The voter turnout increased this year and Jones said he thought that the
voting table set up by athletes was a big reason for that.
"We did something nobody else has ever done and we deserve credit and praise for that," he said.
The election code states that "Any computer shall constitute a potential polling site and shall be considered an active polling site when a student employs said computer for the purpose of voting."
The code also states that any activity that promotes or discourages the passage of either a candidate or a referendum is subject to the rules of the election code.

Students to race concrete canoe
BY CATHERINE ODSON
codson@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
A 120.5-pound concrete canoe sounds about as logical as a flying pig. But while pigs don't fly, concrete canoes do float, and a group of KU engineering students is out to prove it.
The American Society of Civil Engineers, which sponsors concrete canoe competitions for college students each year, said the trick to building a buoyant concrete canoe was creating "a concrete mix that is lighter than water." Water weighs 62.4 pounds per cubic foot.
Sean Hughes, Omaha, Neb., graduate student said this year's team created a buoyant canoe by using a lightweight concrete made of tiny glass beads that weighs
"When you tell people you're building a concrete canoe, that's the first thing that pops into their minds." Hughes said.
only 53 pounds per cubic foot, compared to regular sand- and rock concrete that weighs more than 140 pounds per cubic foot. That, combined with a hull designed to displace the necessary amount of water, keeps the canoe from sinking.
The student engineers began brainstorming for this year's canoe after last year's regional competition, but did not start working until the 76-page rule book was released in mid-September.
Since then the group has logged more than 450 hours working on the project, including fundraising, design and construction.

WEATHER
The 2006 KU concrete canoe is named "Quick n' Dirty" in reference to a simple solution to a complicated problem. The group had to cut corners to finish the project because of the small number of students involved, said Sean Hughes, Omaha, Neb., graduate student. A normal team has between 20-30 members; fewer than 10 students have worked on the KU canoe.

apply my strengths in tissue engineering and biomechanics. UDK: What will the grant help you accomplish?
MD: The long-term goal is to create an insert that can be localized in the defected area of the jaw. The idea of the grant is to create two scaffolds, one with cells that will turn into cartilage
and one with cells that turn into bone. We will put one on top of the other and layer them with fresh stem cells, like a sandwich. UDK: Where are you getting the stem cells?
MD: We are working with someone in pharmacology who collects cells from umbilical cords. That advantage to using umbilical cords is that there is no shortage of them, there are no ethical concerns and it is a younger cell. UDK: What is your education background?
MD: I received a bachelor's degree in chemical engineering in Colorado and a Ph.D in bioengineering at Rice University. I have been teaching for one and a half years. I like teaching undergraduate students because I like teaching people new ways to think. My sophomore level course in chemical engineering is the first class they start thinking like chemical engineers. People come in with a cookie cutter formula and I teach them how to think critically and solve problems. I like seeing the light bulb go off.
MD: I like weight lifting because I like the feeling of strength. There are things in your career and life that don't always work, but with weight there is something consistent you can rely on. I also enjoy playing the guitar. I play acoustic, electric and bass. UDK: Are you a KU sports fan?
UDK. What other hobbies do you have?

Naked man gets stuck in stepmom's chimney
HAYWARD, Calif. — A man who spent five hours naked and stuck in the chimney of his stepmother's home was arrested on suspicion of being under the influence of drugs,
police said.
Police say Michael Urbano, 23, locked himself out of the house early Saturday morning and decided to get in using a cable TV wire through the chimney.
But the wire broke and Urbano fell, getting stuck about three-quarters of the way down. He was freed when a firefighter pushed him to safety.
"We get him up, and he's naked as a jaybird," said Hayward police Lt. Gary Branson. "He tells us he took his clothes off because there would be less friction going down the
chute. We did find his clothes So that part checked out."
Authorities were called in early Saturday.

Medicine fuses art, science

Dr. Dawa Dolma speaks about Tibetan medicine at the Hall Center for the Humanities Tuesday. Dolma is the director of research and development at the Tibetan Medical and Astrological Institute.
The Dalai Lama's personal physician acknowledges Western medicine's importance but still prefers Tibetan medicine and believes in its effectiveness.
Nicoletta Niosi/KANSAN
"Only Tibetan medicine is not sufficient," Dr. Dawa Dolma said. "We don't have facilities for emergencies."
Dolma, the 14th Dalai Lama's personal physician, spoke Tuesday night at the Hall Center for the Humanities about the nature and history of Tibetan medicine.
She said that while the United States was starting to look at more holistic medicine, Tibet was welcoming Western medicine and training their students in both methods. Western medicine can help injuries and accidents better because Tibetan medicine does not work in a way that can treat those problems, she said.
Tibetan medicine uses visual observation, touch and interrogation of the patient to reveal his or her medical history and find the cause of the problem. Whereas Western medicine is based upon signs and symptoms, Tibetan medicine is based upon causes.
Once the cause is found, the treatment can be given. Treatments can be dietary, behavioral, medical or other therapies like massage, spring baths, blood letting or moxubulation. Moxubution can be used for many chronic illnesses, including arthritis, and is executed by placing herbs on specific points on the body then burning them.
She said Tibetan medicine is the "fusion of science, art and philosophy." The five elements of life are earth, air, water, fire and space. Tibetan medicine is based on the three humors of rLung, or the relationship of the mind and body; mTrispa, or physical things like hunger, body heat and complexion; and Bad-kan, or the firmness of the body based on water and earth elements. When the three humors are disturbed, a person becomes ill.
Dolma said many patients couldn't stand the full intensity of the pain, so they had to perform several mild treatments instead of a single heavy one.
Medicines range from medicinal wines to herbal compounds.
Dolma said Tibetans recognized 404 diseases. Of them, 101 are curable by themselves, 101 are curable with treatment, 101 are mental diseases related to an evil spirit and the rest are related to Karma. Karma-related illnesses have to do with what patients did in a previous life and are sometimes incurable.
Although many think of Tibetan medicine as Buddhist, it
has its roots deeper than Buddhism does in Tibet. It's almost as old as the civilization itself
old as the civilization is. Today, the 14th Dalai Lama established the medical center, Men Tsee Khang, in Dharamsala, India. After the 1949 Chinese invasion, many doctors were imprisoned and died. In exile, the Dalai Lama opened the facility with one room and few doctors. Now there are more than 300 doctors and 45 branch clinics treating people with holistic, and sometimes ancient, medical techniques that sometimes work better than Western medicine can.

NATIONAL Spaceship, NASA budget OK'd by Bush
WASHINGTON — A new spaceship could be ready to replace the nation's aging shuttle fleet by 2011 — three years ahead of schedule — if lawmakers added money to NASA's proposed budget, the head of the space agency told a congressional panel on Tuesday.
Currently, the target date for building a new vehicle is 2014.
The shuttle is to be retired in 2010, and lawmakers are concerned about when a replacement will be ready.
President Bush's budget calls for a 3.2 percent increase in NASA spending from last year. The House and Senate have
NASA Administrator Michael Griffin said that date is the earliest the new spaceship, or crew exploration vehicle, could be developed no matter how much money the agency received.
authorized an additional $1.1 billion, but that is only a guide. The money must be appropriated by both chambers.
A Senate subcommittee was to meet Wednesday to consider the proposed increase.

Drake Relays begin with bulldog contest
ODD NEWS
DES MOINES, Iowa — To those who know her best, Hannah is the ultimate girly girl. She enjoys socializing, wearing fancy outfits and pursuing a shoe fetish that would rival any Hollywood starlet.
But Hannah doesn't wear shoes — she eats them. Still, that didn't stop this 2-year-old English bulldog from beating out 49 others to claim top prize
in the 27th annual "Beautiful Bulldog" contest Monday.
The contest marks the beginning of the Drake Relays, one of the nation's oldest and most prestigious track and field meets.

Naked man gets stuck in stepmom's chimney
HAYWARD, Calif. - A man who spent five hours naked and stuck in the chimney of his stepmother's home was arrested on suspicion of being under the influence of drugs,
police said.
Police say Michael Urbano, 23, locked himself out of the house early Saturday morning and decided to get in using a cable TV wire through the chimney.
But the wire broke and Urbano fell, getting stuck about three-quarters of the way down. He was freed when a firefighter pushed him to safety.
"We get him up, and he's naked as a jaybird," said Hayward police Lt. Gary Branson. "He tells us he took his clothes off because there would be less friction going down the
chute. We did find his clothes. So that part checked out."
Authorities were called in early Saturday.

Unmentionables on display for art exhibit
PADUCAH, Ky. — Satin and lace don't usually serve as an artist's canvas.
But at "The Art of Underpinnings," local artists used 36 bras to craft works of art.
CORRECTION
Artists painted or sewed items on bras to make their
creation, which they named and described with a story.
The Retired and Senior Volunteer Program at the Paducah-McCracken County Senior Citizens Center is sponsoring the exhibit in conjunction with the American Quilter's Society Quilt Show & Contest for the second year.
Paducah artistTatiana Cashon, who made "Pirates of the Carri-Bra-En" last year, designed "Group Support Bra", which was embellished with photographs of her family and friends for this year's exhibit.

Medicine fuses art, science

The Dalai Lama's personal physician acknowledges Western medicine's importance but still prefers Tibetan medicine and believes in its effectiveness.

"Only Tibetan medicine is not sufficient," Dr. Dawa Dolma said. "We don't have facilities for emergencies."
Dolma, the 14th Dalai Lama's personal physician, spoke Tuesday night at the Hall Center for the Humanities about the nature and history of Tibetan medicine.
and history.
She said that while the United States was starting to look at more holistic medicine, Tibet was welcoming Western medicine and training their students in both methods. Western medicine can help injuries and accidents better because Tibetan medicine does not work in a way that can treat those problems, she said.
those problems, she said.
She said Tibetan medicine is the "fusion of science, art and philosophy." The five elements of life are earth, air, water, fire and space. Tibetan medicine is based on the three humors of rLung, or the relationship of the mind and body, mTrispa, or physical things like hunger, body heat and complexion; and Bad-kan, or the firmness of the body based on water and earth elements. When the three humors are disturbed, a person becomes ill.
Tibetan medicine uses visual observation, touch and interrogation of the patient to reveal his or her medical history and find the cause of the problem. Whereas Western medicine is based upon signs and symptoms, Tibetan medicine is based upon causes.
Once the cause is found, the treatment can be given. Treatments can be dietary, behavioral, medical or other therapies like massage, spring baths, blood letting or moxibution. Moxubuction can be used for many chronic illnesses, including arthritis, and is executed by placing herbs on specific points on the body then burning them.
Dolma said many patients couldn't stand the full intensity of the pain, so they had to perform several mild treatments instead of a single heavy one.
Medicines range from medicinal wines to herbal compounds.
Dolma said Tibetans recognized 404 diseases. Of them, 101 are curable by themselves, 101 are curable with treatment, 101 are mental diseases related to an evil spirit and the rest are related to Karma. Karma-related illnesses have to do with what patients did in a previous life and are sometimes incurable.
Although many think of Tibetan medicine as Buddhist, he
has its roots deeper than Buddhism does in Tibet. It's almost as old as the civilization itself.
as old as the civilization today. Today, the 14th Dalai Lama established the medical center, Men Tsee Khang, in Dharamsala, India. After the 1949 Chinese invasion, many doctors were imprisoned and died. In exile, the Dalai Lama opened the facility with one room and few doctors. Now there are more than 300 doctors and 45 branch clinics treating people with holistic, and sometimes ancient, medical techniques that sometimes work better than Western medicine can.

NATIONAL Spaceship, NASA budget OK'd by Bush
WASHINGTON — A new spaceship could be ready to replace the nation's aging shuttle fleet by 2011 — three years ahead of schedule — if lawmakers added money to NASA's proposed budget, the head of the space agency told a congressional panel on Tuesday.
NASA Administrator Michael Griffin said that date is the earliest the new spaceship, or crew exploration vehicle, could be developed no matter how much money the agency received.
Currently, the target date for building a new vehicle is 2014.
The shuttle is to be retired in 2010, and lawmakers are concerned about when a replacement will be ready.
President Bush's budget calls for a 3.2 percent increase in NASA spending from last year. The House and Senate have
authorized an additional $1.1 billion, but that is only a guide. The money must be appropriated by both chambers.
A Senate subcommittee was to meet Wednesday to consider the proposed increase.
NASA will shelve its three aging space shuttles in four years.

Canoe

The concrete canoe competition is part of the American Society of Civil Engineers Student Regional Conference in Columbia, Mo., this weekend. The competition has four parts, each of which count for an equal proportion of the score: a five minute presentation, canoe and poster display, written paper and race. Only undergraduate students can compete in the competition.
Becky Anderson, Meriden sophomore, joined the group as a rower but has been helping with the project since the concrete was poured. A civil engineering major, she said the canoe project had provided hands on engineering experience beyond what she
had learned in class.
The University of Kansas placed high in the regional competitions in the early and mid-1990s, but has fallen in recent years as student involvement dwindled. The team failed to complete their canoe in 2004, and no one from that group returned the next year.
Hughes took over the group last year and said the members spent most of the year teaching themselves how to build the canoe. This year, he said, the group was trying to compete and win.
The winners of the 18 regional competitions, plus some second place finishers, will advance to the national competition in June at Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, Okla.

Iran threatens to hide program
By ALI AKBAR DAREINI THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TEHRAN, Iran — Iran ratcheted up its defiance ahead of a U.N. Security Council deadline to suspend uranium enrichment, threatening Tuesday to hide its program if the West takes "harsh measures" and to transfer nuclear technology to chaos-ridden Sudan.
Ali Larijani, the top Iranian nuclear negotiator, also renewed a vow to end cooperation with the U.N. nuclear watchdog agency and said increasing pressure on Iran would only stiffen its resolve.
"If you take harsh measures, we will hide this program. If you use the language of force, you should not expect us to act transparently." Larijani said, adding that Western nations "have to understand they cannot resolve this issue through force."
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice fired back almost immediately, saying, "Iranians can threaten, but they are deepening their own isolation."
Top leader Ayatollah Al Khamenei made the offer to transfer nuclear technology at a meeting Tuesday with Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir.
"Iran's nuclear capability is one example of various scientific capabilities in the country. The Islamic Republic of Iran is prepared to transfer the experience, knowledge and technology of its scientists," Khamenei told al-Bashir.
Al-Bashir said last month that his impoverished, violence-ridden country was considering a nuclear program to generate electricity.
Such a technology transfer would be legal as long as it is between signatory states to the nuclear nonproliferation treaty,
and the International Atomic Energy Agency is informed.
Energy Agency We "have to be concerned when there are statements from Iran that Iran would not only have this technology, but would share it, share technology and expertise," Rice told reporters during a visit to Ankara, Turkey.
Russia, meanwhile, launched a satellite Tuesday for Israel that the Israelis say will be used to spy on Iran's nuclear program. The satellite is designed to spot small images on the ground and would allow Israel to monitor Iran's nuclear program and long-range missiles, an Israel defense official said.
With the U.N. deadline approaching Friday, Iran has become more defiant almost daily.
"If U.N. Security Council sanctions are to be imposed on Iran, we will definitely suspend our cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency," Larijani said, echoing the words of hard-line President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad a day earlier.
The United States has not openly threatened military action and said it wanted a diplomatic solution. But President Bush has said all options, including military force, remained on the table.
Iran's stance appeared to stem in part from opposition to sanctions by Russia and China, both veto-holding members of the Security Council.
Britain also warned Iran against miscalculating.
"We see no alternative to the negotiations process," Russian Defense Minister Sergei Ivanov. And Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang urged all parties "to show flexibility."

Law cannot be changed with marches alone
Iran
Students marched on City Hall last week to get the noise ordinance changed, but the march went unheard. The City Commission didn't make any changes to the statue.
The ordinance may be vague and prone to abuse, but the reason it wasn't changed wasn't an unsuccessful march. Besides rowdy college students, no one has a problem with it. The majority of Lawrence citizens — the constituents of the City Commission — don't want to change the law.
This means there will be little momentum to get the law changed from any of the city commissioners.
Marching may generate press about the law,but,as we were shown,it not nearly as effective in changing the law.
To get a change, students who want to see the law changed need to march to other students, not the city commission.
PAGE 5A
If concerned student can motivate students they could get a direct link to changing the law. How? Through good-old fashioned participatory democracy.
Issue: Protesting the city noise ordinance
Stance: Marching changes nothing without changing the minds of constituents.
Students have the numbers to possibly elect a fellow student to the commission.
It's happened before. Current magazine reported that Michael Taylor, a college student from Ithaca, N.Y., ran for a local government position to
— guess what — oppose a noise ordinance law.
It's a stretch. It would take a supremely dedicated student and a focused campaign to get a student on the Lawrence City Commission.
But that's the best way to get a noise ordinance changed - not marching to a group of commissioners whose constituents don't care.

COMMENTARY
Millions of Americans have caught "pharmacy brain," a condition classified by an unnatural desire for pills as the solution to every single health problem.
A
BECCA EVANHOE opinion@hansan.com
Even the first option for treating obesity, which can clearly be improved upon by better diet and exercise, often involves a prescription drug. Obviously, the drugs on the market help millions of people live healthier and more comfortable lives. But they often have side effects — we've all heard them listed at the end of pharmaceutical commercials: Nausea, diarrhea, cramping, headaches, sensitivity to sunlight — or they interfere with the body's other processes, such as absorption of vitamins.
A new field of emerging medicine, called complementary medicine, combines so-called "natural medicine" with "Western medicine." The focus of natural medicine, in its most pure application, is different from the pill-popping view. Natural or herbal medicine focuses on a person's entire body and lifestyle as they interact. Instead of treating the symptom as if it were isolated, its aim is to get to the bottom of what's causing the symptom.
"We have a few things. But let me ask you this: Do you eat and sleep well?"
Unfortunately, "pharmacy brain" seems to be infecting complementary medicine, too. I work in a wellness department that sells herbal medicines, and I've had many a customer come in looking for — you guessed it — some pill, any pill, really, that will give them more energy or help them sleep better. Here's a hypothetical conversation between myself and a customer:
"Oh, no. That's why I don't have any energy."
"Do you have anything for energy?"
This "gimme pills" attitude misses the point, and it reflects a misunderstanding of natural medicine, which focuses on the whole health picture.
not just on a single symptom. What this person needs is balance in her life, better eating habits, less caffeine during the day or booze at night, some exercise, less stress — not a supplement that will probably leave her feeling more tired in the end. Not to mention that sleep is free, and it doesn't have any negative side effects.
Treating your body right isn't easy to do, but it's clearly the best way to be healthy. If you're willing to take a more holistic approach to health, then herbal medicine can be a better option when health problems do crop up.
Herbal medicines can be powerful. For example, ginger is a very effective safeguard against motion sickness, and St. John's Wort can be as effective as prescription medications in preventing mild to moderate depression.
But herbs can have side effects too, and their effectiveness is often debated or unclear. Every week, new studies appear in magazines hailing the merits of a supplement — and the following week, scientists often refute the claims. Do a Google search on the supplement Echinacea, an herb used to boost the immune system, and you'll get thousands of hits, some supporting it and others dismissing it.
Whatever you choose, either prescription drugs or herbal medicine, avoid pharmacy brain. Don't just pop a pill without knowing what it is. Do your own research. This includes talking to a doctor or naturopath — someone trained in herbal medicine — and reading information from credible sources.
And ask yourself, Do I really need a pill to fix this?
Evanhoe is a Derby senior in chemistry.
HERBAL TIPS
Be wary of the Internet!
Often, "research articles" praising a supplement are thinly veiled advertisements.
Analyze marketing claims.
What makes a particular vitamin "high energy" or "super absorbable"?
Know the company that produces the supplements.
How carefully does it regulate its products? Does the company do third-party testing on every batch? A good company will openly share this information.
Find out the source of the supplement.
Is that calcium for coral or cow bones? Where do the fish come from that constitute your fish oil?
If the product is a blend of several herbal components, research every single one.
Always read credible books, such as those published by the American Botanical Council, for side effects or drug interactions.
For example, you shouldn't take melatonin if you're on antidepressants, and you should avoid Vitamin K if you're already taking blood-thinning medication.

And they wonder why they're not seeing results when they go to the gym every day and do the same thing.
People see more results when they combine both cardio and resistance training.
Muscle burns more calories than fat, which is why you should lift weights. When you lift weights, you build lean muscle, which will in turn burn more calories when you are at rest.
Cardiovascular exercise strengthens your heart and can burn a large amount of calories which helps melt away excess fat.
Still, many people only choose one or the other. Perhaps this is due to a missing piece of the puzzle: Reactive training.
The National Academy of Sports Medicine defines reactive training as a quick, powerful movement involving an eccentric contraction, followed immediately by an explosive concentric contraction. This comes through pylometric exercises such as squat jumps, box jumps, tuck jumps and other explosive movements.
You don't have to be an athlete to incorporate reactive training into your workouts, but you do need to have a proper amount of core strength and stabilization before attempting reactive training.
According to a study conducted at the University of Canberra's center of sports studies, the most significant results were in the group using reactive training. One group did just squats, one group was cardiovascular-based and the last group did reactive training.
Reactive training is great because it combines a strength type movement, like a squat, with a powerful anaerobic burst, like a jump, so you benefit from two areas, and see results faster. No matter what your goal is, you can benefit from reactive training.
Try gradually incorporating reactive training into your workout routine. If you keep at it, you will be amazed at not only the gains you make within your workouts, but the results you will see by combining reactive training with cardiovascular and resistance training.

Rentrace
April marks the beginning of the mad dash for fall housing.
The school year is winding down. Graduates are finalizing their plans to walk down the hill; students are securing summer internships and starting finals and others are planning summer travel. On top of students already long to-do lists, many have one more task to worry about finding a place to live next year.
As days fly by, many students feel the crunch to secure housing. Lisa Warabouno, Leavenwood senior has been renting a house on New Hampshire Street for the past year. She said she had noticed the rush.
"Our landlord actually looked at when rental agreements were signed on the house for the past five years and said the house was rented at almost always the exact same week in April every year," Warabouno said.
A 2000 U.S. Census Bureau poll found that renters occupied more than 54 percent of Lawrence housing and 49 percent of Lawrence households were non-family.
Every year the city experiences an influx of students racing to gobble up the best housing.
The competition has forced some students to look farther away from campus and consequently farther away from the high prices and small spaces of campus area rentals. Scott Rose, Leavenworth sophomore, looked at multiple housing options last year before settling on a townhouse west of Kasold Drive. Rose said that after he and his roommates were unimpressed by what they seen close to campus, it was suggested that they check out the options our West.
"We liked the size of the places that were farther away," Rose said.
He said he liked the space in his current house and would be living there this summer, but he had started looking at places for the fall that are closer to campus. Apartment complexes farther away from campus often offer special deals to compensate for the trek student renters must make.
Lauren Murphy, staff member at The Legends apartments, 4101 W. 24th Place, said the complex offered special rates for returning residents who sign a lease before May.
"It's kind of getting down to the deadline now that it is getting closer to summer," Murphy said.
Though many places entice students with special rates, some renters said they found housing mainly by chance, after conducting intensive housing searches. Warabouno said she found her house only after exhausting other options.
"A lot of houses we looked at were awful." Warabouno said. "It only took us about a week to find this place, but we were looking several hours every day. It kind of fell into our laps, and we were so excited that we made the landlord wait while we signed the lease outside."
Warabouno got married that semester and wanted to move out before winter break. In order to get out of their rental contract early, Warabouno and her roommates elected to find someone to sublet the space. They began putting up rental signs and placing ads in newspapers in November.
Warabouno said that after experiencing renting from the other side, she thought the race to find renters was as bad as trying to find a place to rent. She said they had received a few calls about the house within the past months, but not many until recently.
"The amount of showings and calls definitely raised in the last two weeks," she said. "There was not a lot of interest until now."
Warabouno recently found people to sublet the house. She can cross one more task off her list after surviving the race for fall housing.

Junior pitcher Brendan McNamara delivers to home plate during Kansas' game against Southeast Missouri State Tuesday afternoon at CommunityAmerica Ballpark in Kansas City, Kan. McNamara recorded 10 strikeouts, allowing just four hits and one walk in the Jayhawks 6-0 victory against the Redhawks.
Redhawks strike out

Consequently, Riley struck out.
Riley's second strikeout of the day marked the tenth for McNamara, making the junior right handed pitcher the first Kansas pitcher to strike out 10 batters since March 2001.
KANSAS CITY, Kan. — The home plate umpire reaped back for the punch out. In the top of the seventh, third baseman Phillip Riley left his bat on his shoulder while Brendan McNamara delivered.
"I felt good," McNamara said. "The first thing I noticed when I got to the ballpark today was that the wind was blowing in. So I had a plan to throw a lot of strikes to get ahead."
That particular set of strikes equaled the last out McNamara threw in his 6.1 innning start, when he scattered four hits throughout the shutout. He was lifted for freshman left-hander Andy Marks after reaching his 99th pitch on a 100-pitch count day.
100-piece board. Less than 10 minutes later, Kansas coach Ritch Price and Southeast Missouri coach Mark Hogan met with the umpires and called the off. Kansas won the shortened contest, 6-0.
"I think their coach made a good decision," Price said. "The umpire went and talked to him and he was in complete agreement. Players were saying their hamstrings were hurting from running in the grass and he didn't want to lose anybody."

In five games last week, Settlerium totaled eight hits, 12 RBI and a .615 batting average. Settlerium hit three home runs in those five games, as well as her fifth and sixth grand slams of the season.
On the mound, Settlemier went 3-0, including a victory against No. 2 Texas last Sunday. In 16 innings of work, she struck out 15 and held opponents to a .115 batting average. Her ERA in those games against Missouri, Creighton and Texas was 0.44. Settlemier improved her record to 15-5 on the season.

"This is an incredible honor for both Serena and our team," Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said. "Her performance this season has been remarkable and last week, she did some pretty incredible things. She has had to persevere through a lot of adversity and that makes this honor all the more special."
This is Settlemier's fourth weekly award from the Big 12 of her career. Settlemier shared the national award with Cambria Miranda of Oregon State.

Jayhawks aim to burst bubble

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
March Madness has come and gone. Bracketology and mid-major teams have finally been removed from the American mainstream vocabulary. But even in late April, RPI and bubble team discussions are starting to heat up — for softball, that is.
"Right now we're one of the bubble teams," Kansas head coach Tracy Bunge said about her team's postseason chances. "I think our RPI is somewhere in the low 60s."
To be exact, the Jay hawks are currently ranked No. 63 in Warren Nolan's RPI system, which is used to measure NCAA rankings. Kansas, at 5-13 has a less than flatter

"This game will definitely help us," Bunge said of the victory against Texas. "The committee will look at what you've done the last few weeks and they're going to look at your pitching. Right now we have two very good pitchers."
Kansas can continue to improve its chances for an NCAA bid today when it takes on No. 17 Nebraska, in Lincoln. The Cornhuskers have lost only once at home this season.
This will be the third time the two teams have met this season. The Jayhawks took the first meeting and the Cornhuskers (35-8, 9-4) grabbed the second on April 4.
second on April 4.
In that second game, junior pitcher Kassie Humphreys pitched a no-hitter for Kansas, but her team still lost 2-0. The Jayhawks had five hits against Nebraska pitcher Ashley DeBuhr, but were unable to capitalize when presented with runners in scoring position.
Since that game, Kansas is 9-3 and is coming off its biggest victory of the season Sunday against Texas.
"This win will give us confidence," senior pitcher Serena Settlemier said. "We're just going to go up from here."
Settlemier and the rest of the Jayhawks have been on an offensive tear lately, averaging more than four runs in their last six games. This even included two Texas games, where Kansas scored only one run combined. An improved offense and Humphreys' red-hot pitching have made Kansas a scary team, according to Settlemier.
"I don't think any team in the Big 12 is going to want to face us," she said.

Quigley's skills evident on field
BY DREW DAVISON

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
Jon Cornish won't have to take all the carries in the Kansas backfield next season.
Freshman running back Angus Quigley has displayed impressive skill for the Jayhawks this spring. In the annual Spring Game, Quigley showed potential, catching an 11-yard touchdown pass from freshman quarterback Todd Reeing.
"You can see he's athletic," Kansas coach Mark Mangino said earlier in the spring. "He's quick, he's strong and he's not an easy guy to bring down."
Last season the Cleburne, Texas, freshman took a red shirt. Although he has been a pleasant surprise for the KU offense this spring, Cornish, senior running back, will remain the starter next season.
Mangino said Quigley played himself into the running back mix this spring.
Quigley finished the game with 39 rushing yards on nine carries. He also caught two passes for 10 yards.
"Jon deserves to be the starter." Ouilev said.
Last season Kansas won games on the ground. In its seven victories, Kansas ran the ball an average of 40 times per game.
Cornish and Clark Green
split the majority of carries. Last season Cornish ran about 12 times per game, averaging 5.8 yards per carry, while scoring nine touchdowns. The only other player returning to the backfield from last season will be junior running back Brandon McAnderson. McAnderson ran the ball 22 times last season for 102 yards and a touchdown. With a bulk of the offense relying on the running game, Quigley should see his fair share of playing time.
Quigley, who stands at 6 feet 2 inches tall, might have to focus on technique early in his KU career.
"He's got to get his pad level down a little bit so he doesn't take so many hits," Mangino said.
The key for Quigely to stay involved in the offense will be to limit the hits he takes.
"The lower I get, I figured out, the less hard blows I take," Quigley said.
Quigley's teammates have also realized the impact he could have on the offense this season.
"He's done a great job," sophomore wide receiver Marcus Herford said. "He looks real good."
Herford said Kansas would have a great tandem in the backfield with Cornish and Quigley.

NBA playoffs worth watching
For the sports fan, this time of the year means that the two-month odyssey that is the NBA Playoffs officially begins.
Lately, I've had debates with many people — friends, radio co-hosts and even professors — on whether the NBA Playoffs are significant.
In contrast, when college basketball comes up, everyone's voice dramatically changes to a much more serious tone. College basketball, especially in March, is very addictive. But I grew up with the NBA, so April, May and June are even more exciting.
NBPA might say that the one thing they've said to me was that the NBA seems to lack significance for them and most people in the Lawrence area.
WELCOME OUR KANSAN.

There have been many reason for cynicism and disdain toward the NBA.
Since Michael Jordan retired from the Bulls in 1998, there hasn't been a team, a rivalry or a definite player to capture the attention of the average fan.
Jordan was the symbol of basketball and arguably American culture as well. Author David Halberstam said in reference to Jordan that he's who we are.
Then, there was the lockout. The following year, after Jordan's retirement in 1998, the league suffered a nasty lockout that wiped out half of the 1998-1999 season. When the lockout ended, the NBA returned with a 50-game season, but the damage was already done by then.
A comeback by Jordan in 2001 seemed to have little effect on the
league's stature probably because he was playing for the Washington Wizards instead of the Chicago Bulls
CUT IT OUT!
Another argument against the NBA has been greed. That's been the basis for any anti-NBA sentiment. In recent years, the negative characteristics have grown, as some of the NBAs brightest stars have let fans down with their off-the-court issues.
For example, in 2003, Kobe Bryant was accused of sexual assault and rape in Colorado. Though he was acquitted, this ruined his once flawless reputation.
Last week, Philadelphia 76ers players Allen Iverson and Chris Webber arrived for their game five minutes before tip-off because their teams were already eliminated from playoff contention.
The other argument against the NBA could be a lack of scoring in the league. Growing up in San Antonio, fans received free Big Macs if the Spurs scored more than 125 points. Now-a-days, most of the promotions for free food happen if the Spurs score more than 100 points.
So, when all of that is factored,
I can see why people are turned off
by the NBA. Some say it's also
the length of the playoffs, but for once
the players actually care.
Regardless, there are some good stories in the NBA Playoffs. In his first playoff game, LeBron James tallied a triple double. The Los Angeles Clippers are in the playoffs for the first time in nine years.
But the only way people will know or care is if the NBA markets more than just a few players or a team. Because, until then the common sentiment from every type of person this time of the year will be: "When's the Kentucky Derby?"

Duke player violates agreement
Evan Vucci/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MARK BURTON
Duke University lacrosse player Collin Finnerty leaves the D.C. Superior Courthouse on Tuesday in Washington. Finnerty appeared before a D.C. Superior Court judge for a previously scheduled status hearing of an assault case that occurred last November.
BY HEATHER GREENFIELD THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — A Duke University lacrosse player charged with raping a stripper in North Carolina was ordered Tuesday to stand trial in Washington on an unrelated assault charge from last fall.
The assault charge against Collin Finnerty, 19, could have been dismissed if he completed 25 hours of community service and stayed out of trouble, but a Washington judge decided his arrest in the rape case violated that agreement.
Finnerty and two friends are accused of punching a man after he told them to "stop calling him gay and other derogatory names," according to court documents.
Finnerty remains free pending a July 10 trial in the Washington case. He could get up to six months in jail and a fine of up to $1,000 if convicted of simple assault.
Judge John Bayly also set a 9 p.m. curfew, ordered him to report by phone to court officials every Friday and required that he stay away from places that sell alcohol.
Finnerty nodded when the judge asked if he understood. A family priest stood a few feet behind him in the courtroom.
"This incident has been grossly mischaracterized," said attorney Steven J. McCool, who is representing Finnerty, of Garden City, N.Y., in the Georgetown case. McCool said the media have
unfairly portrayed the incident as a hate crime. He did not elaborate.
Finnerty and Duke teammate Reade Seligmann, 20, were indicted on rape and kidnapping charges last week. A 27-year-old stripper who had been hired to perform at a lacrosse team party March 13 told police three men raped her in a bathroom of the off-campus house. District Attorney Mike Nifong has said he expects to charge a third person soon.
Defense attorneys say timestamped photos, phone records and a taxi driver's testimony show Seligmann could
not have been there when the rape is alleged to have occurred.
Nifong said Tuesday he has no plans to present charges in the lacrosse case to the grand jury at his next opportunity, which comes on Monday — the day before he stands for election in the May 2 Democratic primary.
"Even 1 would think that would look political," said Nifong, who was appointed district attorney last year.
So far, Nifong said, that's happened only to David Evans, a team captain who lived at the house where the party was held. But the prosecutor is looking at other cases involving deferred prosecution.
A handful of other Duke lacrosse players facing deferred prosecution — all for misdemeanor violations in Durham — may see the charges against
them reinstated.
Evans, 22, was cited in separate incidents for a noise ordinance violation and alcohol possession. Nifong said he reinstated the charges because Evans knew there would be underage drinkers at the party.
"For a long time, we have treated deferred prosecution as a right," Nifong said. "It is a privilege."

SMU hires Doherty hopes for revival
DALLAS — SMU hired former national coach of the year Matt Doherty on Monday to try reviving a program that hasn't gone to the NCAA tournament in 13 years.
Doherty signed a five-year deal, but terms weren't disclosed. Doherty, coming off a 15-13 season at Florida Atlantic, replaces Jimmy Tubbs, who was fired April 6 after two losing seasons and an internal investigation that uncovered NCAA violations.
Doherty, who won a national championship as a player for North Carolina, broke into coaching with Notre Dame in 1999-2000. He took over the Tar Heels the next season and earned the coach of the year award from The Associated Press for going 26-7 and winning a share of the regular-season ACC title.
"I look at this as a destination job." Doherty said. "I didn't want to take a job to take another job."
North Carolina missed the NCAA field the next two years, and Doherty resigned under pressure in April 2003. He worked as a television analyst for two years, then spent this past season at Florida Atlantic.
"I didn't value experience so much when I was younger because I thought I knew it all," said the 44-year-old Doherty. "But the thing I've learned is that coaching is 50 percent the science of coaching, which is Xs and Os, and 50 percent is the art of coaching. And that's the relationships, the leadership, and that's an area I've worked very hard in improving."
Doherty's high profile should be a boost for SMU, which
"I want to put a system in place to put in a program that you all will be excited about. With the commitment we have here, why can't we be a top 25 team?" he said.
hasn't made the NCAA tournament since 1993.
New athletic director Steve Orsini said it was an easy choice for the school's 18-member search committee.
"This is definitely a great day for SMU athletics," he said. "It was a very quick and strong consensus for Matt Doherty."
Sophomore guard Derrick Roberts said he believes Doherty can revive the program.
"The first time I heard his name, I stopped listening to all the things about the other candidates," Roberts said.
Tubbs spent 12 years as an SMU assistant, then two at Oklahoma and was a popular pick when he was hired. His teams went 27-30, including 13-16 this past season, but school officials said the NCAA violations were the main reason he was fired.
James Stafford and Malcolm Farmer, assistants under Doherty at Florida Atlantic, are coming to SMU with him. Rex Walters, Doherty's top assistant, is a candidate for the Florida Atlantic head coaching job. He could join the SMU staff if he's not promoted, Doherty said.

The Mustangs haven't won a postseason game — NCAA or NIT—since 1988, when they beat Notre Dame in the first round of the NCAA tournament before losing to Duke. They lost in the first round of the NIT in their only postseason appearance since 1993.
Durham Visitors Bureau tries to improve town's image after rape case
BY TIM WHITMIRE
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DURHAM, N.C. — Wherever reporters gather to cover the Duke rape case, it's a good bet Rosemarie Kitchin is nearby.
In the past two weeks, the director of media relations for the Durham Convention & Visitors Bureau showed up at a prayer service in front of Duke Chapel; on the courthouse steps as defense lawyers criticized the district attorney; and inside the courtroom where a player made his first appearance before a judge.
Celebrated two decades ago for its rundown Southern charm in the Kevin Costner baseball movie "Bull Durham," Durham has been dissected since allegations surfaced last month that members of Duke University's lacrosse team raped a stripper at a party.

economic development, the relationship between Duke and the city all have been examined in a search for an explanation for the scandal.
It is Kitchin's job to stick up for the Bull City in that debate.
And so she follows the reporters with an armful of bright red portfolios stuffed with promotional material about the city of 200,000. She hands out fliers or a business card, and offers reporters food from local restaurants and caterers.
"We knew we had to be on the street," said Reyn Bowman, president and chief executive of the convention and visitors bureau. "We had to be in touch with the media. ... Our job was to move quickly, and Rosemarie did that."
Durham has long been regarded in North Carolina as the bad apple of the Triangle, as the cities of Raleigh, Durham and Chapel
Hill are known. Raleigh is seen as the clean, if bland, state capital, while Chapel Hill is the bucolic university town.
But Durham is viewed as troubled and crime-ridden, a rundown factory and tobacco town with elite Duke in its midst.

"When a frenzy hits like this, people are looking for contrasts, so the temptation is to slightly overemphasize the contrasts," Bowman said. "Durham has a bit of an image problem within a 50-mile radius anyway. That often contami-
nates the national coverage."
Durham officials are frustrated when writers describe Durham's population as poor and black. The city is about 46 percent white and 44 percent black, while the median household income is $41,160, or just under the national average.
The "rundown factory town" image irks as well, given that the county is home to Research Triangle Park, a collection of pharmaceutical companies and other high-technology businesses that include GlaxoSmithKline and IBM.
Kitchin said she was shocked to see a TV story show an under-construction condominium development to illustrate the reporter's point that Durham "has seen better times."
"Is the glass half-empty, or is it half-full?" she said. "He's showing huge renovation projects as though they're slums."
Bowman said a national poll conducted last week for the bureau by the firm Opinion Research Corp. showed little effect on Durham's image from the Duke case.
Asked whether they had seen, read or heard any news about Durham in the past two weeks,
28 percent of those surveyed said yes, and 63 percent said no. Asked whether their image of Durham had changed, 5 percent said it had improved, 6 percent said it had worsened and 64 percent said it was the same.
Bowman and Kitchin said they will continue their longstanding effort to improve Durham's image. For years, their bureau has urged local media outlets to datele stories about Research Triangle Park from Durham, and to note Duke's location in Durham in stories about the university.
Kitchin's portfolio includes a handout on "25 Common Misperceptions about Durham and the reality behind them." Among the myths the handout mentions: "Race relations in Durham are hostile"; "Durham thinks of itself as the 'redheaded stepchild' of the Triangle"; and "Duke town/gown relationships are poor."

NFL
Potential stars overlooked by scouts
BY JEROME MINERVA
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Who says NFL scouts know everything?
They missed on Antonio Gates, now considered the best tight end in football.
They missed on Kurt Warner, who merely became a two-time NFL Most Valuable Player and an MVP of the Super Bowl. And on Rod Smith, who's fourth on the career yards receiving list among active players.
allong derive players All those players didn't go in the first round of the draft. In fact, they didn't go in any rounds.
Despite all the poking and prodding at the NFL Combine each year, players deemed too small, too slow or too injured invariably go on to become stars in the NFL after being passed over by personnel directors and general managers.
So who will be this year's Priest Holmes? Dick Vermeil, for one, doesn't pretend to have the answer.
the answer.
"You'd like to believe that we're all smart enough to draft them anyway, but none of us are, obviously," the former Chiefs coach said.
Holmes went undrafted in 1997 after an injury-filled career at Texas, but latched on with the Ravens as a free agent. After showing a glimmer of his potential, he signed with the Chiefs in 2001. Holmes went on to rush for a league-record 27 touchdowns in 2003, a mark broken last season by NFL MVP Shaun Alexander.
Vermeil, who won a Super Bowl with the Rams in 1999,
said teams don't take it lightly when they miss on evaluating a player.
played.
"I think every time someone misses on somebody that glaringly, they go back and evaluate their reports, evaluate the scouts that wrote the reports. They deeply evaluate the whole situation better and see where they made a mistake, or if they did."
Vermeil told The Associated Press in a telephone interview.
crysant. Warner may have the most improbable success story. Undrafted out of Northern Iowa, he played in the Arena Football League and then NFL Europe.
"Many times there's little, mitigating circumstances that just prevented ... you didn't think a guy would drop from a first-round pick (to) out of the draft. Maybe he drops to a sixth- or seventh-round pick. So, I think people do go and re-evaluate everything."
He finally got his shot in St. Louis when starting quarterback Trent Green went down with a knee injury in the 1999 preseason. Vermeil stuck Warner in the lineup, leading to a storybook career he's still writing in Arizona.
Warner was the league MVP in 1999 and 2001 and MVP of the 2000 Super Bowl, leading the Rams to a 23-16 victory over Tennessee. He also led St. Louis to the 2002 Super Bowl, where the Rams lost to New England 20-17.
Another two-time Super Bowl winner, Denver's Smith is the NFL's career leader in receptions (797), yards receiving (10,877) and touchdowns receiving (65) among undrafted players. At
just 6-foot, 200 pounds, he's the only undrafted player to eclipse 10,000 yards receiving. The rap against Smith? He played at that non-football factory, Missouri Southern.
Chargers GM A.J. Smith said sometimes it's just a matter of luck. He should know.
tuck. He died in San Diego was one of 19 teams vying for Gates, a college basketball standout for Kent State. Smith said the football gods were with him the day Gates' original agent, Eugene Parker, called him with the good news.
"You know, of all these 19 teams, we've decided that we're going to sign with you," Smith recalled Parker saying. "So, I've never stood at a podium and took credit for this. This is absolutely what you call luck. Period and simple. And sometimes it happens in this business. And the San Diego Chargers were very, very lucky."
Willie Parker will never forget the embarrassment of Senior Day at North Carolina in 2003. The Steelers' starting running back never set foot on the field for the Tar Heels that day against Duke, even with friends and family looking on.
Gates, an All-Pro, last season led NFL tight ends with 89 catches for 1,101 yards and 10 touchdowns.
For some teams, it's being in the right place at the right time.
As the story goes, Steelers scout Dan Rooney Jr. remembered Parker as a high school player in Clinton, N.C. He saw him at his pro workout day in Chapel Hill and lobbed the front office hard to sign him.
NFL suspends Williams
Fourth drug violation means no 2006 season

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
News that Williams had
Scott Audetty/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MIAMI — Miami Dolphins running back Ricky Williams was suspended for the 2006 season by the NFL on Tuesday for violating the league's substance abuse policy for the fourth time.
The 1998 Heisman Trophy winner at Texas and 2002 NFL rushing champion, Williams retired and sat out the 2004 season, then returned last year to play for new Miami coach Nick Saban.
Williams served a four-game suspension at the start of the 2005 season for his third violation of the drug program, then ran for 743 yards and averaged 4.4 yards a carry while sharing playing time with rookie Ronnie Brown.
fourth time.
The league announced the suspension after Williams' appeal of his latest positive drug test was denied. Williams met with NFL counsel Jeff Pash on April 10 in an attempt to have the league overturn the test.
"I'm disappointed with the decision, but I respect it," Williams said in a statement released by the team. "I'm proud of my association with the National Football League and look forward to returning to the Dolphins in 2007."
Williams had been participating in the offseason training program at the Dolphins' complex and was there working out shortly before the league announced its decision.

Ricky Williams was suspended for the 2006 season by the NFL on Tuesday for violating the league's substance abuse policy for the fourth time.
Williams' previous positive tests were for marijuana, which he acknowledged using. The latest test apparently involved a drug other than marijuana.

histic medicine. Saban repeatedly has praised Williams' conduct and performance last season and supported him in the appeal process
"This is a league decision, and we are disappointed in what it means for Ricky and the team," Saban said in a statement. "Ricky did an outstanding job for the Dolphins, not only as a player but also what he added as a person to the team's chemistry and to our overall success."
overall success. Attorney David Cornwell represented Williams in his appeal.
resented with them. "We raised substantial and legitimate issues arising out of the application of the NFL's policy and program for substances of abuse," Cornwell said in a statement. He urged the players' union and ownership to "review the issues we raised on the appeal ... and restore the original intention of the NFL's policy to put equal focus on helping NFL players as is put on testing and suspending them."
The suspension represents a financial blow for Williams, who owes the Dolphins $8.6 million for breaching his contract when he retired in 2004. His return last season was motivated partly by the need for a paycheck, and that may be a motivation for him to return in 2007.
It's possible the suspension could mean the end of the mercurial running back's career.
If he does try to return next year,he'll be 30 years old and will have played a total of 12 games in the previous three seasons.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) **** You might be instrumental in much that gets on, but also be willing to not demand the limelight. You are better off allowing others to think they did it on their own. A financial discussion takes you in a new direction. Tonight: Vanish. You don't need to explain.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) ★★★★ Your ability to assume responsibility helps others. What is obvious is how smoothly everything happens. A partner or associate who deals with joint funds could be squandering them away.
Tonight. A must appearance.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) ******
Don't settle. You have the right idea and are heading in the correct direction. Sometimes you get a bit confused, as you have so many ideas flying through your head like lightning.
Detach. Think.

Jayhawks outplay Redhawks
BY SHAWN SHROYER
sshroyer@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITTER
KANSAS CITY, Kan. — Kansas continued its impressive play yesterday, earning its ninth victory in 12 games. It came, however, in the worst weather conditions the team had played in since March 25 in Lincoln, Neb.
Unlike the conditions in Lincoln, where the temperature was just above freezing and snow was piled up in parts of the stadium, temperatures hovered around 50 on Tuesday and precipitation fell, ending the game against Southeast Missouri State after seven innings.
"I thought we'd get it in because I didn't think it was going to rain until later, but I thought, actually, we'd get the whole thing in," junior right-hander
Brendan McNamara said.
While pitchers and positions players were feeling the effects of the weather, batters appeared to have the hardest time. The first nine batters of the game struck out, leaving Kansas without a hit until the second inning and Southeast Missouri State without a hit until the third.
McNamara made the start for Kansas and took advantage of uncomfortable hitters by striking out 10 Redhawk batters in 6.1 innings. Almost more impressive than McNamara's strikeout total was that he stayed in the game as long as he did.
In the bottom of the fifth, the Kansas batting order went full circle, leaving McNamara in the dugout to get cold. To stay warm, the Oceanside, Calif, native finally had to play catch with a teammate in foul territory while the Jayhawks were batting.
"The first inning, I'm standing on that top step and I know he is from San Diego, where he always pitches in warm weather in paradise," Kansas coach Ritch Price said. "I was shocked at how he pitched in those conditions."
Despite the harsh conditions, McNamara made his longest appearance of the season and was only pulled because he had reached his pitch count. After his performance, he couldn't really complain about the weather.
Neither team performed as badly as might be expected in the field, considering its condition. The two teams combined for only three errors.
"If anything, it worked to my advantage because hitters don't want to hit in this weather," McNamara said.
Senior outfielder Gus Miller said the wet conditions had
caused the ball to skip if it was hit hard, but as long as fielders were careful, the routine plays could still be made.
"It was real sloppy conditions and you just had to make sure to keep everything underneath you," Milner said. "Otherwise you might make yourself look like a fool."
While the game came down to which team pitched, hit and fielded better, Milner said Kansas ultimately came out on top because it was tough enough mentally to withstand the conditions.
"I don't think anybody really complained at all," Milner said. "I think it's just kind of like, 'All right, we've got to accept it and try to deal with it and try to minimize the errors.' I think we did that today."
- Edited by Lindsey St. Clair
McNamara cruised through the opening innings using the cold to his advantage. He ended the top of the fourth fanning first baseman Aaron Rave, resceting his career strikeout to six in just the first four innings.
Baseball
CONTINUED FROM PART 1A
"You kind of have to look at it both ways," McNamara said. "It's tougher for hitters to hit in this weather than it is for pitchers to pitch in it."
The cold gusts of rain and almost non-existent crowd kept the game moving at quiet, steady pace. In the bottom of the fifth, however, Kansas showed off what it has been perfecting as of late: capitalizing on opportunities.
Sophomore leadoff man Brock Simpson led off the five-run fifth. Second baseman Omar Padilla's lay out stopped Simpson's groundball, but not in time for the throw to beat him.
Simpson used a Redhawk fielding error, put in motion by senior outfielder Matt Baty, to move to third in the next at bat and scored when Baty was caught stealing moments later.
With two outs the Jayhawks used the extra out provided by the error earlier in the inning. The next six batters reached base consecutively, starting with a walk to Gus Milner. Unfazed by the weather, the senior out-fielder went 2-2 with two runs scored.
"It wasn't that bad because I was playing," Milner said. "I'm pretty
sure the people in the dugout were cold but after I was out there running around, I got warm."
Erik Morrison singled to left and sophomore John Allman took four straight bails before senior infelder Jared Schweitzer reached on the Southeast Missouri's second error of the inning. The error scored both Milner and Morrison, Allman was left behind to score later on freshman first baseman Preston Land's deep double to the left field corner.
Standing in as the only primary catcher while junior Dylan Parzyk recovers from an ankle sprain, freshman catcher Buck Afenir drove in Schweitzer.
"We're starting to peak at the right time," coach Price said. "We peaked last year in the last month of the season. We've played our best baseball these last two weekends. If we can continue to improve then we've got a shot to play for something special here at the end."
Game Notes:
Former Jayhawk Doug Lantz was the last Kansas pitcher to strike out 10 batters in one outing. It happened on March 25, 2001 against the Baylor Bears.
- Tuesday's victory marked number 30 for Kansas on the season, making it their fourth year in a row to post a 30-plus victory season. No Kansas squad has ever posted such a streak.

Rent is not the only factor to look at before moving in
This is also the time when making friends with the guy with the pickup truck is really doing to pay off.
Or you can just take the shortcuts like me and probably end up with a box or two you haven't fully unpacked sitting in some closet somewhere.

Billy Garrett, Kansas City Kan., freshman, and his friends plan to move out of the dorms after this semester and are in the market for a place to live, specifically a townhome.
"There are limitations at the dorms, like having to check in at night," Garrett said. "I also want more space."

APARTMENT vs HOUSE The ongoing debate between space and convenience

T
he responsibilities that come along with living in an apartment or house can be overwhelming. However, each has it's own set of positives and negatives.
A lack of hot water for the first three weeks of their apartment lease was just the beginning of a string of unfixed maintenance problems for roommates
T. J. Williams, Hutchinson graduate and Jeff Lammert. Norman, Okla., junior.
"Our management company didn't fix a sink that was broken the whole time, we had no hot water and the temperature gradient on the oven was broken." Lammert said.
Williams and Lammert decided to find a house the next year, but they stayed with the same management company.
"Now we reserve maintenance requests for something serious we don't want to fix," Lammert said.
Their to-do list in the house has been much shorter however, with the main complaint is that they lose a lot of heat through the poorly-insulated windows.
They said, a spacious, comfortable living arrangement with a yard was worth it for them, even if their utilities were more expensive.
"The only reason we lived in the apartment was because it was cheap, but I think the student ghetto is more expensive over all." Williams said.
Moving outside of what many call the 'student ghetto'; 10th through 14th Streets from Tennessee to Missouri, and into a family neighborhood was a surprise for the two.
Even though they have more space, Williams said partying in the house was worse because of the older neighbors.
For jacob Vieis, Independence junior, his eight
months in a house brought a sense of privacy and relaxation not found in the apartment he previously occupied.
"It itels more private, I can go on the back porch and drink a beer if I want," he said. "In the apartment, your neighbors are just a wall away. You can hear their music and arguments."
With more space and privacy come extra responsibilities, however. Tenants are often responsible for mowing their own lawn and a mower doesn't come with the house. A yard is vital for some people with dogs like Viets' roommate and brother.
"It's hard to find a place that allows pets, and you have to pay a pet deposit. It's a hassle." Viets said.
A house gives tenants more liberties in decorating. Melissa Hughes, Wichita junior, and her two roommates painted every room a different color from light orange to burgundy. Hughes found that it was easier to work with a private owner than dealing with a big company. But she said she appreciated the cheaper utilities and prompt response to maintenance requests in her apartment complex.

The long lonely road to home
Living off campus for the first time
By Brian Schneweis

I can't tell you the name of the person. It's too blurry to read.
M milestones. A baby's first steps, the first time behind the wheel of a car, high school
"A lot of times people don't really consider everything that living in an apartment entails,"
graduation, finding a job after earning a degree, and later, retirement from that job all are some of life's biggest events.
Somewhere between all that, however, is a situation almost everyone must face at one point during his or her time as a college student.
There are many differences between apartment living and life at home or in the dorms. Alissa Shull, Great Bend senior said, these differences are sometimes overlooked.
Leaving home or the dorms and moving into an apartment for the first time is one of the major changes college students must confront. The event signifies a time of independence and a step toward adulthood.
Shull said. "People need to recognize the major differences between the dorms and apartments well before they move in."
Shull works as a leasing agent for Property Management Services, Inc., in Lawrence. She helps people with any questions they have about living in an
they have about 1 in. apartment. She offered several tips to make a smooth transition into apartment living.
"Know that you will have to be responsible and motivate yourself to look for a place." Shull said. "The first and most important thing you have to do is plan ahead."
Some students find it hard to begin looking for an apartment, especially if they are already facing other stresses.
"Sometimes it's hard to find time to look for a place since I have class and work all week." Adam Varner, Belle Plaine freshman said. "It's all kind of overwhelming and hard to figure out where to even begin."

Some students find it hard to begin looking for an apartment, especially if they are already facing other stresses.
Shull recommended beginning the search by deciding what part of town and which amenities (garage, washer and drier, central air conditioning, etc.) were most desirable.
Calling to set up appointments to see apartments that fit an attainable price range, along with planning out a budget to include bills and other expenses can also make sure there will be adequate money on hand each month.
"One of the major adjustments for me when moving from a dorm to an apartment was paying bills," Shull said. "Organize all your
bills, remember to pay them on time, and budget your money very carefully."
Roommate choice is another
issue that comes into play when moving into an apartment. Shull suggested analyzing roommate prospects to be sure they would be reliable with paying rent and bills each month. Also, discuss situations that may cause problems in advance, such as cleaning or paying for groceries. Do not choose people who could be possible risks for damaging property or even more serious offenses.
"Choose your roommates wisely because the things they do could come back to haunt you," Shull said.
Although the idea of facing such a big decision may seem intimidating to some, at least one student thought moving into an apartment for the first time was something to be embraced, not feared.
"I guess I'm a little nervous to move out of the dorms, but I'm mostly just excited," Varner said. "I'm ready to be out on my own and take care of my responsibilities in my own place."

Fourth, use sheetrock screws to attach a piece of sheetrock als

a piece of sheetrock, also known as drywall, in the hole. Screw above and below the square cut out. Israel said you can get sheetrock from a lumberyard. The sheetrock may be cheaper and you are more likely to find the size you need, or you can buy a full 4-foot-by-8-foot sheet for about $9. Then, screw

to dry and it could also crack. After it is dry, sand it fine sand paper to smooth it out as much as possible.
Finally, paint over the new sheetrock.
For smaller holes, most hardware and do-it-yourself stores sell self-adhesive patches that can be placed over the hole. Once the patch is applied, you need to put on a layer of sheetrock mud, sand it flat and paint it.

Detergent solution: Mix 1/2 teaspoon of clear non-bleach, nonlanolin, dishwashing liquid with 1 cup of warm water. Allow the detergent to remain on the stain for 8 to

2. Apply a spot removal product.
Do not saturate area.

BY ASHLEY PATE
Congratulations on mastering the art of the ramen noodles! But you're in college now and regardless of how easy it is to make, big kids eat big-kid food. Don't fret, there are many different recipes are tasty and good for you too. with the basics
First, you need to make sure that all of your machinery is clean and in proper working order. Improperly cleaned tools will add unwelcome flavors to the meal you are about to prepare.
Safety issues
Keep a close eye on the food you're cooking when using hot surfaces. Carelessness can lead to disaster in the kitchen and the destruction of your meal, your cooking tools and, sometimes, your home.
there are many different recipes that are tasty and good for you too. Let's begin with the basics.
Make sure that your knives are properly sharpened if you will be cutting anything. If you happen to cut yourself, always try to keep blood away from the food.
For example, do not put a plastic plate on a hot stove — it will melt — or leave noodles cooking without stirring — they will stick to the bottom. Also, if you are using less expensive plastic cooking wear, do not leave them on hot surfaces for any long period of time — they also may melt.
Meat preparation can be easy as long as you cook the meat thoroughly and wash your hands after handling raw meat or eggs.
Washing your hands will help prevent diseases like salmonella.
The microwave is your friend
When my roommate and I moved in together this year, she learned that there are some things that are okay to be cooked in the microwave. Potatoes are fairly inexpensive and can be popped in the microwave, instead of being cooked in the oven. Poke the potato with a fork all over and wrap it in a dampened paper towel. Put it in the microwave for three minutes, flip it over for another four minutes and it's done.
Make sure you keep the fork out of the microwave, though. Metal and microwaves don't mix.
Frozen chicken is another food that can be cooked in the microwave. The best type is a boneless skinless chicken breast. Put five pieces from the freezer on a regular-sized plate, add some seasoning and put them in the microwave for four minutes. Turn them over and cook them for three minutes and then cook for two more minutes. Don't forget to sprinkle some seasoning or pour marinade onto the chicken to add some flavor.
When you're done
If you aren't the type of person that likes doing anything right after eating, that's fine. On the other hand, you absolutely must soak your dishes in order to have an easy clean-up. This rule applies even if you plan to use the dishwasher. Food will come loose of a plate or dish easily if it has been soaking in water and two drops of dish soap. Make it easy on yourself, or your dishwasher, and don't skip this step after you're done enjoying your meal.
A general tip
Taking care of your kitchen equipment will make it last longer. This rule includes recipes too. Clip or print all of the recipes you use and put them into a binder. This way, it will be easy to refer back to them. Bon Appetit!

Neighbors want quiet Students adjust to noise ordinance
BY KRISTEN JARBOE
KRISTENJARBOE.COM #CAROL STAFF WORK
ILLUSTRATION BY ANTHOLE WAHDE
oe Delaney said his social life was killed by a nuisance ordinance.
Delaney, Des Moines, Iowa.
Delaney, Des Moines, Iowa, senior threw a party in his apartment at 17th and Kentucky streets in October. "It was a big party in a tiny apartment," he said. The Lawrence police department showed up at Delaney's apartment because of a noise complaint. He has not had a party since then.
The Lawrence City Commission began revising the Disorderly House Nuisance in January. Currently, the Commission is looking at the types of offenses that are considered nuisances. The ordinance will not just include convictions, but diversions as well.
The ordinance says "a dwelling is a 'Disorderly House Nuisance' when it is associated with: two or more triggering events arising out of separate and distinct facts and circumstances, or three or more triggering events by
separate individuals arising from the same general facts and circumstances" within a 365-day period.
The ordinance still states that, upon conviction for a violation, the offender can be fined up to $1,000, serve jail time not exceeding 180 days or both.
When the police arrived at Delaney's apartment, the officers informed him of the violation's consequences. Living near the University of Kansas, Delaney was surprised police showed up. He said noise complaints should depend on where the noise occurred.
"Here on Kentucky or Tennessee Street, it's a student ghetto, and if you don't like noise, then don't live here," Delaney said. "I understand there are people who have to get up早晚, but if you're living in the student ghetto, you should expect noise next door."
Shelly Axcell, Lawrence senior. "Fining is one thing, but turning off your power is another. That's your personal property."
For misconduct on property, the ordinance also stated that the City of Lawrence would send a written notice to the property owner. Residents would then be cited for a violation, and their utilities would be disconnected.
"I don't think that's fair," said
Axcell lives in a house at 17th and Indiana streets. She said there were a lot more families that lived near her than there were students. She said parties didn't really occur in that area, she had never thrown one either but might think twice if she did.
"The consequences seem pretty steep to me," she said. "It's a little harsh after only two occurrences."
City Commissioner David Schauer said there were a lot of complaints from the Oread Neighborhood residents, which was one of the reasons the commission started to look at the ordinance. He said that, under old ordinance, the process of filing a complaint took so long that it practically wouldn't happen.

Lessees' legal woes
Service helps with student's leases
BY ERIN CASTANEDA
PHOTO@ERINCASTANDA
KATHLEEN CORCOPHORTT
egal Services for Students is one place that frustrated tenants can turn to when facing landlord and rental problems.
The attorneys at the service offer advice and representation, which is already paid for by student fees.
Bill Larzalere, staff attorney, said that many problems could be avoided if tenants read their leases.
"Students can exercise their right to choose. If they don't like terms in a lease, just walk away," he said.
Larzalere said he didn't think landlords took advantage of college-aged renters because of their inexperience with renting. But he said he did think landlords took advantage by including terms such as "automatic renewal" and "liquidation damages" that were not found in leases outside of a college town. He said landlords justified the use of these terms because of the quick turnaround of tenants in the fall and spring.
Automatic renewals, which require tenants to stay another year, may be unclear on a lease. Liquidation damages are pre-determined costs based on an itemized list of maintenance problems.
"Landlords could charge $3 to change a light bulb and $15 to wipe off a stove," Larzalere said.
The Student Legislative Awareness Board introduced a bill in the state senate that would have put a standard on automatic renewals and would have eliminated liquidation damages. It passed the senate but not the house.
Josh Bender, Sterling senior and former Student Senate legislative director, said, the goal of the bill was to put standards on automatic renewals. He said there was a case law that said liquidation damages shouldn't be allowed.
Legal Services also sees a smaller, but continuing problem with roommates skipping out on leases but the service
BEFORE SIGNING YOUR LEASE
See the actual residence, not just the model housing. You have a right to see the condition of the residence. If the residence is currently occupied, the landlord only needs to notify the current tenants before being able to show it to you.
Make sure applications fees are refundable if you don't end up signing a lease with the place in question. If you do sign the lease, see that the application fee applies to the first month's rent.

cannot advise students against other students.
Most renters who end up in small claims court are there because they haven't received their deposit Larzalere said.
After the lease ends, the landlord has 30 days to return the deposit and if it is wrongfully withheld he or she is punished. The landlord must also have an itemized list of repairs to the property. If they fail to comply with regulations, landlords must pay damages equal to one and half times the amount withheld, which Larzalere said was favorable for tenants.
If landlords are neglecting to correct maintenance issues then tenants are advised to visit the city's Neighborhood Resources Department. The department can send an inspector to verify a problem and notify the landlord. Larzalere said the third party verification gave renters more leverage instead of it simply being their word against the landlords. Photographs are also a good way to prove the condition of a rental.
Before signing a lease, take a copy of it, and ask for the "rules and regulations," usually a 10-page document in addition to the lease. Often when you sign a lease, you are agreeing to these rules and regulations, but the document is not always included.
Really do the check-in routine. Photograph or videotape any damages in the residence prior to moving in. By documenting these damages, you can prevent being charged for them when you move out.

Surviving severe weather in off-campus housing
BY TARA SCHUPNER
ENTITORES@NASAN.COM
KOMAN CORRESPONDENT
Photo Illustration By Jared Gab
W when the sirens went off during the microburst in early March. Sarah Lathrop
and her roommates didn't go to their basement.
They didn't have one.
Instead, they huddled in the downstairs closet of their Sunrise Village townhouse.
"I wish we did have a basement," said Lathrop, Phoenix senior. "But it's an apartment so I understand that's something that we can't always have."
More often than not, when severe weather strikes, apartment tenants in Lawrence find themselves in a similar situation.
Most apartments in the city do not have storm shelters or basements that tenants can go for shelter - and city codes do not require them to build any.
This means prospective and current tenants have to take responsibility for planning for severe weather, said Jane Blocher, Douglas County Red Cross director. "Students should not rely on other people to take care of them," Blocher said. "They should take the responsibility to plan ahead."
During the hunt
When visiting prospective apartments, ask apartment managers or landlords what shelter is available for tenants in case of severe weather.
at the dwelling they may move into with an eye toward storm safety," said Barry Walthall, City of Lawrence code enforcement manager. "Whether there's a basement or other fortified area where residents can take shelter."
"Prospective tenants should look
If there is no storm shelter on the premises, check out the buildings around the complex for
Also, ask current tenants where they go for shelter.
If the apartment complex has a place that can serve as shelter, such as the main office, ask what hours it is open. Offices, utility rooms and laundry rooms may not be available late at night or on weekends.
The most important thing, Blocher said, is to not assume before the event that shelter will be available.
ones that can serve as snelters. Churches and stores are possible options, as are neighbors' homes.
You can also find homeowners who live nearby and may be willing to let you take shelter in their basements. Again, ask beforehand,
Once you've signed the lease and moved into your new apartment, or even if you've been living there for a while, there are steps you can take to ensure your safety during severe weather.
Introduce yourself to your neighbors, especially if you live on an upper floor. You may be able to go to an apartment on the ground floor for shelter. But don't rely on that as your sole shelter – neighbors may not be home to let you in when the sirens go off.
After moving in
Gather some basic supplies and put them where you can get to them easily.
Invest in a battery-powered NOAa weather radio, said Joy Moser, spokesperson for Kansas' Emergency Management department. The radio can serve you well if you lose power in your apartment.
A severe weather kit should also include some water, food, a first-aid kit and a flashlight with extra batteries.
If your only warning is an outside siren and you haven't
With the right preparation tenants can avoid putting themselves in a situation like what happened to Kristen Howard, Plain Oak, Texas, junior. Howard woke up during the microburst, grabbed a flashlight and fled to the utility room in her apartment complex, The Hawker, 1011 Missouri St. There, she used her cell phone to call her mother back home in Texas to find out what was going on.
Caught off-guard
made any advance preparations, there are still things you can do to protect yourself.
Don't go outside if the siren has already gone off. At this point, you won't have time to reach a shelter.
Get as close to ground level as you can within the building. Head to the interior and stay away from windows. In most buildings, the bathroom is an ideal place. Specifically, the bathtub.
If none of these options are available, take shelter under a sturdy piece of furniture, Blocher said. Cover your head with your arms and if you have a thick blanket or comforter, wrap yourself in it to minimize injuries from flying debris or glass.
Try not to put yourself in this situation, though. An adequate storm shelter can guarantee your safety better than a kitchen table.
Blocher said tenants should always have a Plan B, She said they needed to take responsibility for themselves and prepare ahead of time.

Contracts can prevent major roommate conflicts

thousands of KU students have already begun thinking about where they are going to live next year and
with whom. These are difficult, but important questions to ponder because the decisions will effect at least nine months of the next academic year. Some things to consider if your plan is to live with others.
Pick people with whom you are able to communicate.
"Don't be afraid to talk to your roommate," said Tori Kim, Leawood sophomore. "Communication is most important."
There should be one priority when you move into your new place.
"Make a roommate contract," said Annie Harrigan, Prairie Village sophomore. Harrigan, a resident advisor in Jayhawker Towers, said that the contract could help figure out comfort levels between roommates.
If you are able to communicate your feelings to others, then making a roommate contract should be easy. Some topics that should be thoroughly discussed include quiet hours, members of the opposite sex, substance use, and using one another's belongings.
Kim said she wished that there
would have been a more effective roommate contract for her and a former roommate of hers. Besides dealing with a roommate who ate her food and drank her alcohol, Kim also dealt with unwelcome guests.
"She brought creepy guys home who would pretend to be asleep and look at me when I was changing in the morning," Kim said. "Another time she let some guy sleep in my bed when I went home and there was some weird white stain on my pillow case and dirt in my bed."
Another issue that should be a concern is respect for other people's property. If this issue is addressed in the roommate contract, then future incidents can be prevented.
"We agreed at the beginning of the year that she could use
condiments and take drinks from my fridge and anything else she had to ask," Kim said. "But she would always take my food without asking."
"When he got back he fell down the stairs and banged himself up pretty bad," said Landis.
"Our RA was never there to talk to about anything," Kim said.
Kim said that the dorm contract that she used with her roommate was ineffective because no one was there to enforce it.
Problems can be avoided by

roommate had problems with possessions migrating across their dorm room, especially when Kim went home for the weekend.
Once boundaries are set and agreed upon, you should bring up any personal habits that you might have, including drinking. Although alcohol-induced escapees are often the source of funny stories.
"Besides being a slob, she left her crusty, mesh, neon green underwear on my desk chair and when she moved out at semester, I found socks in my closet." Kim said.
cleaning up the mess — especially if it's not your mess — is not funny.
If you are able to communicate your feelings to others, then making a roommate contract should be easy. Some topics that should be thoroughly discussed include quiet hours, members of the opposite sex, substance use, and using one another's belongings.
"I woke up to the sound of him walking around. I stuck my head
out of the door and saw him peeing in front of my room. As soon as he was done, he tucked it back in, spit where he peed and went back to sleep on the couch," said
The more you know about your future roommates and their habits, the better you will be able to address problems that may arise. Talk to your roommates and make a thorough roommate contract and stick to it.

the Way to Feng Shui
Bringing peace and positive energy through decoration
BY PATRICK LUIZ SULLIVAN DE OLIVERA
ENTITUD KANSAN.COM
KANSAN CORRESPONDENT
eng Shui has been characterized as exotic and mysterious, but it can be more accurately described as a way of living.
Every culture, from Native American to Japanese, practices some form of it.
Feng Shui literally means "wind and water" and according to Laurie Bornstein, a Feng Shui practitioner and founder of Harmony Life, "water symbolizes the energy you can see, while the wind the energy that is unseen but that you can feel."
Feng Shui is about simplifying your lifestyle and environment, and making both of them more pleasing. she said.
Contrary to what many people believe, Feng Shui is not only a form of design. Sure, it involves decoration, but to someone like Bornstein, it is much deeper.
"Feng Shui involves understanding how the energy in an environment moves." Bornstein said.
Everything around you affects you, she said, whether it is the color of your walls or how a certain rug is positioned, by applying Feng Shui principles you can make it affect you positively.
You don't have to decorate your house with fountains, rock gardens and bonsais to successfully integrate Feng Shui into your lifestyle. Feng Shui is adaptable to your personal style. The main objective of Feng Shui is to make you feel good and to make your house a welcoming place.
"People should practice Feng
Shui because it provides a sense of comfort and helps you achieve a life of balance. It provides you with a welcoming environment so that you feel that you belong there, and that can't help but look good," she said.
When you go home,whether to your dorm room or your of campus apartment. Feng Shui is supposed to help.
College students live under a lot of stress. The environment that you live in shouldn't put you under more stress, it should be a relaxing space.
Not to mention that you need an organized and welcoming study environment where you can concentrate and not feel bothered by the things around you.
A common misconception is that applying Feng Shui principles to your living environment is expensive. The truth is that Feng Shui can be as expensive or cheap as you want it to be.
"Most people have the things they need, but in the wrong places. Rearrange the things you have. Can the things you have be supplemented? Yes. Do you have to? Most of the time, no," Bornstein said.
In theory, just by rearranging your furniture you can feel the benefits. But one basic concept people need to grasp before decorating is themselves. There is no use in reorganizing, rearranging and even buying new things to make your life easier if
you do not understand your living patterns. Those are the little things that add up.
College students
Color is an inexpensive way of improving the environment you live in, because it changes your relationship with space. Bornstein said. Have you ever noticed that a white room feels bigger than a
black room? Color is multisensory. One thing to pay attention to is that you should never use colors you don't feel comfortable with. If you find blue to be a soothing color, use it, but if you patently dislike it, don't use it. Another point to focus on is clutter.
"Clutter wastes time, money and is stressful," Bornstein said.
How many times have you found yourself going through clothes you never wear just to find that one piece you adore? Clutter occupies
space that could be taken up for useful purposes.
In the end, what really matters is how you feel about your house, Bornstein said. Don't go with the newest decorating trends; do things that make you like your house is a warm and embracing environment. You should look forward to getting back home after a long day on campus, not unexcited about all the mess you need to organize.
FIVE INEXPENSIVE WAYS TO USE FENG SHUI IN YOUR HOME
Remember, make your house feel like a home.
Your bed should have a full view of the room and not he directly
and not be directly aligned with the door. If that's impossible put something between your bed and the door, it can even be a small rug. The reason behind that is because there is a constant flow of energy coming in through your door and you do not want to be distracted by that while you are in bed. The bed is supposed to be a spot for relaxation.
2 incorporate color. It is always nice to be surrounded by colors that you like. That can really change the feeling of a room. The problem is that most leases have restrictions regarding painting walls. If that is the case curtains or bedspreads can make some difference.
2
3 Pay attention to your artwork. Posters, paintings and sculptures are valuable assets, but don't surround yourself with aggressive artwork. That can make the environment unwelcoming and stressful.
4 Plants are good as long as you take care of them. Plants are a great source of positive energy, but there is nothing positive about a dead shrub.
All you need is love. Surround yourself with things you love, need and find useful.

Better shelter, attitudes could fight 'mean' rank
BY RACHEL PARKER
rparker@kansan.com
KANSMAN STAFF WRITE
. A panel of community leaders met Wednesday with ideas to battle Lawrence's reputation of being the second meanest city for the homeless.
It was concerned mostly with providing a more adequate shelter and public education about homelessness. The Lawrence Community Shelter only has space for 30 to 50 people during the day, and 21 sleeping spaces for people at night. In 2005, there were 35 to 50 individuals daily, which was pushing the maximum limit.
Loring Henderson, Lawrence Open Shelter director, also said the community needed show openness and positive reaction to things the city was trying to do to help.
Helen Hartnett, assistant professor of social welfare, said positive day-to-day encounters with the homeless, such as eye contact and smiles, were also

something the city's residents should think about.
Kristin Wilson, Pittsburgh senior, asked the panel, which included Henderson, Hartnett, and Dennis "Boog" Highberger, city commissioner and former mayor, why they thought Lawrence was considered susceptible to a transient population.
"They love the climate." Hartnett joked. "Hailstorms! Microbursts!"

Schiavo's story told

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Brother speaks at 'Stand Up for Life Week'
Since his sister's court-ordered death last year, Bobby Schindler, brother of Terri Schiavo, has been working full-time to continue to address the issues surrounding Schiavo's court case, which became the center of national and international attention last year.
A group of nearly 150 people heard Schindler speak at the Kansas Union Ballroom Wednesday night about the death of his sister.
"It's extremely difficult because it brings back memories of how my sister was neglected but there is a real need for it," Schindler said of speaking about his sister's death.
One of Schindler's main topics was what he called the "carelessness" and "misreporting" by the media during his sister's trial.
lets made his sister's case into solely a pro-life issue, while neglecting to talk about the many disability rights organizations that were also supporting the Schindler family. He said 25 local and national disability rights organizations were " screaming" their disagreement with the judge's ruling to remove Siacha's feeding tube last spring.
Schindler said that media out-
"The media didn't want to recognize Terri as a disabled person because then we would be killing a disabled person, not just someone in a vegetative state," Schindler said.
Schindler was the keynote speaker for KU Students for Life's annual "Stand Up for Life" week, which concluded Wednesday.
Schindler has traveled to speak at various places nationally and internationally. He said he had recently just got back from a trip to Ireland and has been overwhelmed by how many people took an interest in his sister's case.
I will do my best.
Jenn Bono/KANSAN
Bobby Schindler, Terri Schiavo's brother, expresses his thoughts about the death of his sister in the Kansas Union ballroom Wednesday night. Schindler stressed that feeding tubes are now considered a form of artificial life support and not basic care.
"I never realized how much Terri's story touched people," Schindler said.

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Time is not a friend of Meggi Sweeney. When Sweeney is not studying for class or working to pay for school, the Carrolton, Mo., junior is busy rehearsing with the University Dance Company.
Sweeney, along with the rest of the University Dance Company, will perform her first concert of the semester
Encompassing a variety of different genres in their concerts, such as jazz, tap, ballet and modern dance, the first half of the concert will feature four dance compositions, which will be choreographed by visiting choreographer Wally Cardona.
"The concert is a great way to show the quality of our department, our choreographers and the preparation time we put into the show." Sweeney said.
They will also perform the concert on Saturday at 2:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m.
at 7:30 tonight at the Lied Center.
The second half of the concert will feature the KU Wind Ensemble.
The dance company is open to all students and holds auditions at the beginning of each semester. The company rehearses for two hours each rehearsal, six days of the week.
Mixing live music with dance has members of the company eager for the performance. "We did something like this my freshman year, and I absolutely loved it," Sweeney said. "Dancing to live music inspires the entire performance."
Cardona said that working with the company was challenging and rewarding at the
same time. Cardona said that he normally had two years to work on a project with his own dance company, but he had been working with the University Dance Company for only 16 or 17 days.
"The best part of the concert is the wide range of dances that are presented," Turner said. "You can learn something about ballet, modern dance."
Jessica Turner, Omaha, Neb. senior, and a member of the company, said the concert was a great way for dance novices to learn something about the dance company.

School, students win 'Pulitzers'
BY CATHERINE ODSON codson@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Ted Frederickson, professor of journalism, called the Hearst Journalism Awards the "preeminent competition for college journalists," and said they serve as a good outlet for showing that the University also shines off the basketball court.
The University of Kansas School of Journalism finished third in an awards program commonly referred to as the college Pulitizers.
Eight KU students placed in the six individual categories, including Steve Vockrodt, a 2005 graduate. Vockrodt placed first for depth reporting. He received a $2,000 award for his story about the sex offender registry list.
The school will receive a $2,500 award for its overall finish in the Intercollegiate Writing Competition of the Hearst Journalism Awards Program.
Nicole Kelley, Topeka junior and The University Daily Kansas staff writer, placed fourth for spot news. She received a $750 award for her story that covered the March 12 microburst.
Kelley spent most of her day that Sunday looking for sources. The storm kept her on campus for ten hours, working with a battery-powered laptop and window-light for parts of the afternoon. She said she was excited to cover the storm and never expected to receive such a great honor for doing her job.
Frederickson said the spot news category was tough because a reporter was a "prisoner of what happens." Kelley's story was written despite the challenges the storm created,

State requires vaccine
Law aims at protecting students
BY FRED A. DAVIS iIdnafs&kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Gov. Kathleen Sebelius has made a move to protect students against bacterial meningitis at all Kansas universities and colleges.
Sebelius recently signed into law a policy that mandated every university and college to require that all incoming students intending to live in student housing be vaccinated against the disease. The policy will take effect in the fall of 2007. Waivers are available for anyone who refuses the vaccine.

"This is a tangible step to ensure our students who could be more susceptible to meningitis are well protected," Sebelius said.
The University of Kansas has had a policy on meningitis vaccination since August of 2005. The policy was influenced in part by KU alumnus Andy Marso, who contracted the disease in April of 2004.
No meningitis cases have been reported since.
The University's policy requires that incoming students be vaccinated against meningitis if they intend to live in student housing. The University offers students the opportunity to waive the vaccination, yet only 5.8 percent of students chose the waiver according to Student Health Services.
Kathryn Tuttle, associate vice provost for student success, said that the compliance to the vaccination is excellent. And for those who are non-compliant, a hold prevents them from enrolling — a rule that is enforced for any non-compliance with a vaccination requirement.
92. 3 percent have received the vaccination while a mere 1.8 percent of students have been non-compliant.
Tuttle said that because students who live in group housing are more susceptible to the

Tuttle added that while being vaccinated against meningitis is effective, it does not completely prevent the onset of the disease, as is the case with any vaccine. Tuttle advises that students should be aware of any symptoms they might develop to protect themselves.
There are two different Meningitis vaccinations available from the University: Menactra, a newer vaccine that costs $103 and Menomune, which is $83.

New dean of libraries named, effective Aug. 1
— Edited by Timon Veach
Kansas has named a new dean of libraries.
Lorraine Haricombe, dean of libraries at Bowling Green University in Ohio, will assume the position Aug. 1.
She will replace Stella Bentley, who has held the position since 2001.
"It's absolutely scenic," she said. "I had no idea there were hills down in that part of the country."
Harcimbe, visited the campus twice, most recently this past weekend.
At Bowling Green, she has been in charge of the libraries on a campus of 20,000 students, a position she has held since 2001.
She said that while there were similarities, the job at Kansas was a larger one.
"The KU libraries are nationally recognized, and it is obviously much bigger in terms of size and collections," she said.
At Bowling Green, Haricombe has overseen efforts to move printed materials online in the form of e-reserves and electronic journals. She said the projects were similar to ones currently underway at Kansas.
Before Bowling Green, she served in administrative positions at Northern Illinois University, as well as Peninsula Technikon in the Republic of South Africa.
She also holds a teacher certification from the University of South Africa.

Man gets jail time for selling stolen goods
DALLAS — A man who pleaded guilty to selling stolen goods on eBay was sentenced to more than 14 1/2 years in federal prison, the U.S. Attorney's Office said Wednesday.
Cory I. Paris, 34, also was ordered to pay $708,699 in restitution during sentencing Tuesday and must forfeit his downtown Dallas loft.
Paris pleaded guilty in November to six counts of wire fraud, three counts of interstate transportation of stolen property and one count of bank fraud.

HOUSING
Students scramble to sublease
BY RACHEL PARKER
rparker@kansan.com
KANSAN STUD WRITER
Whether they are spending summer at home, at an internship, studying abroad, or working out of town, many students are in a bind to sublease their apartments or houses in Lawrence.
A problem for any potential sublessor, however, is that there are more students looking to get out of their homes than there are trying to find one.
Jessica Stewart, manager at Tuckaway Apartments, 2600 W. 6th St., said that most individuals trying to sublease their apartments did their own work to advertise to their friends and to the public. She said the management would mention the sublease if a prospective tenant was asking about one.
Posts on one Lawrence apartment Web site, apartments. lawrence.com, show more than 50 listings for people looking to sublease their apartments and homes, and only 16 listings for those looking to rent.
On one long bulletin board on the first floor of Bailey Hall,
more than 25 fliers were pinned by people looking for an occupant, and none by anyone looking for a place to live.
She put another ad up to find someone to live in her place for the summer, so she could save money by moving in with her boyfriend. She said she had less luck with finding someone for this summer, but she still found the advertising system to be helpful.
Barbara Parsons, Wallingford, Conn., graduate student, said she used a Web site last year and found two roommates she'd never met before to live with her this year at Tuckaway.
Stewart said that if an individual signed the form to sublease a room or apartment, he or she would be completely released and would have to resign a lease on an apartment in August for next year's living arrangements.
The process for subleasing in many apartment complexes that allow subleasing is for the individual moving out to fill out a sublease form; the complex then tries to re-rent the property.
Other complexes, like Orchard Corners, 14th Street and Bob Billings Parkway, don't allow sub-leasing.

The panelists agreed that the assumption that Lawrence draws a homeless population is a myth.
"People don't come from all over the nation to sleep on a mat." Hartnett said.
Hartnett said the second-place ranking by the National Coalition for the Homeless and the media headlines sparked an open public debate. She is currently working with a class of students on a survey to "fill the gap" and find out what the homeless in Lawrence think about people's behavior toward them.
Highberger said he thought
the ranking was inaccurate. Specific ordinances like the prohibiting of camping by rivers, on rooftops and on sidewalks were targeted as reasons behind the city's "mean" nature.
— Edited by Cynthia Hernandez
Highberger said other jurisdictions around the nation have the same ordinances, and that they were passed to solve problems, not out of spite for the homeless.
The open question-and-answer forum in the Kansas Union was part of "Into the Streets Week," one of 15 programs sponsored by Center for Community Outreach.

Workers rally to protest Wal-Mart
BY MARCUS KABEL THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Unions representing 6 million workers rallied Wednesday in 35 cities from New York to Los Angeles to Kansas City, Mo., to protest what they called inadequate health-care coverage by Wal-Mart Stores Inc., the nation's largest employer.
In Atlanta, about 50 to 60 people gathered in a city church.
In Denver, about 200 people turned out. Only 14 showed up in El Paso, Texas, where organizers said they were unable to get a city permit for a larger demonstration.
In Cleveland, WKYC TV reported dozens of protesters. Organizers said the totals were over 350 in Los Angeles and Portland, Ore., and around 100 in Pittsburgh, Pa.
The Change to Win labor federation of seven unions, which broke away from the AFL-CIO last year to form the nation's second largest
labor group, said Wal-Mart epitomized a business model of low pay and benefits that drag down the middle class. The AFL-CIO has about 8 million members.
"You can't really talk about these issues without talking about Wal-Mart. Wal-Mart drags everybody down, but they are not the only bad actor out there," said Carole Florman, spokeswoman for Change to Win.
It is the federation's first national rally targeting Bentonville, Ark.-based Wal-Mart and part of a broader campaign called "Make work pay" aimed at raising living standards for workers, she said.
wal-Mart called the rallies a political stunt that ignored the fact that it created 225,000 U.S. jobs last year and provides career opportunities and above-average pay and benefits for the retail sector.
It also says it saves its customers, including working families, about $2,300 a year.
Enron founder takes the stand

HOUSE OF DECISION
Lay faces six counts of fraud and conspiracy
BY KRISTEN HAYS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Enron founder Kenneth Lay is escorted to the courthouse for his third day of testimony in his fraud and conspiracy trial Wednesday in Houston.
Pat Sullivan/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HOUSTON — Enron Corp. founder Kenneth Lay dropped his famous affable persona as his cross-examination began Wednesday, snarling at a prosecutor who accused him of witness tampering when the ex-chairman and chief executive called several potential witnesses during his fraud and conspiracy trial.
Jurors who had been listening impassively snapped to attention.
"Did you have any conversations to get your story straight for trial?" asked prosecutor John Hueston, equally primed for battle.
for battle.
"Can you elaborate on that Mr. Hueston?"
Lay shot back.
"I'm not sure what story you're talking about."
The prosecutor noted that Lay called two Goldman Sachs & Co. executives during the trial regarding a September 2001 meeting about Enron.
Former Enron Chief Financial Officer Andrew Fastow — whom Lay has dubbed a traitor, liar and crook — testified that he and Lay met with the executives to discuss restructuring Enron at the same time Lay was telling employees and reporters that the company was sound. Lay says the executives called the meeting to discuss Enron's vulnerability to a takeover.
Lay said he called the executives in March — the same month Fastow testified — but he said he didn't try to align their memories of the meeting with his.
"I was trying to make sure some facts I had about a meeting we had in the fall of 2001
was right. I was just trying to make sure that all of my facts were as accurate as they could be," he declared, noting further that Fastow "gave a fake version of that meeting."
that meeting. Lay, known in Houston for his avuncular, polite persona and who frequently headlined charity events, shed any pretenses to his usual diplomacy when faced with the prosecutor who secured his indictment in July 2004. Lay's visible anger and Hueston's rapid-fire questioning produced an electricity that has been absent from the trial, even during almost eight days of testimony from his far scrappier co-defendant, former Chief Executive Jeffrey Skilling.
After a short afternoon break,
Lay appeared to calm down.
Lay also acknowledged he tried to contact Vince Kaminski, a former top risk analyst for Enron, nine days before Kaminski testified for the prosecution. Kaminski told jurors he got a cold reaction when he told Lay and other executives in October 2001 that Enron needed to "come clean" on questionable financial structures in the weeks before it crashed into bankruptcy proceedings.
"I was trying to reach Vince Kaminski a long time ago before I even knew he would testify. I was trying to reconnect with Vince, to talk to him about some issues I wanted to talk to him about," Lay said.
Lay said Wednesday he thought Glisan, who is serving
a prison term for creating one of the structures Kaminski complained about, has been under "enormous pressure" from federal prosecutors.
Lay faces six counts of fraud and conspiracy from when he reprised the role of CEO following Skilling's abrupt resignation in mid-August 2001. Skilling faces 28 counts of fraud, conspiracy, insider trading and lying to auditors related to his activities from 1999 to 2001.
Once jurors in the Lay-Skilling case begin deliberating, Lay faces a trial without a jury before Lake on bank fraud charges for allegedly reneging on an agreement with banks not to use $75 million in loans to buy Enron stock on margin.

Chinese, not Spanish is language of future
One trend KU students can ill afford to miss out on is learning a second language.
En vogue right now is Spanish. Our generation seemingly has been cognizant of this concern since we were in kindergarten learning how to count to diez. Now more than ever, with the increased presence of Latino culture coming to the North American scene, more bilingual individuals are desired in various professions—from marketing to hospitality or politics —in order to reach this continually burgeoning demographic.
Looking further down the line, however, there's another language that will be taking over as the one to learn: Mandarin Chinese. Just to give you some idea of the importance China has even within our own local community, the country bought more than $300 million in Kansas goods and services last year — making it the third leading buyer — according to the state Department of Commerce.
Luckily, if you have contemplated learning the most widely spoken language in the world in anticipation of the growing financial and cultural exchange between the United States and China, the University of Kansas is already way ahead of you. Much to the University's credit, it is well-poised to accommodate the growing interest in Chinese culture, especially because of the soon-to-be-established Confucius Institute at the Edwards campus. The institute, which partners with China's Ministry of Education, is part of a network that plans to create a total of 100 similarly named institutes worldwide. Currently only four exist. It will offer Chinese language instruc

tion, training Chinese language teachers and promoting outreach programs on Chinese culture.
Here on the Lawrence campus we have the Center for East Asian Studies, founded in 1959. Now with a total of 51 faculty members, 25 of which are entirely devoted to the center, it has gained an impressive reputation throughout the nation. KU students can earn bachelor's or master's degrees in Chinese language and literature or Chinese language and culture or take courses on China in various departments and schools. Not to mention students also have the option to study abroad or get involved in a direct exchange program in the People's Republic of China for a year, semester or summer. And just recently, the Office of International Programs announced the opening of the competition for three direct exchange scholarships with partner universities in the People's Republic of China.
To date, only 90 students are enrolled in the four levels of Chinese language offered. However, this number is sure to increase in the coming years, thanks to the University's forward thinking and continued increase in relations with China. But why not get started now? There's nothing like being ahead of a trend.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Ten-semester limit makes sense for all
It must be hard for KAPE
It must be hard for KAPE — the GTA union — to try to explain to campus GTAs why they received no salary increases this year and might not next year.
The university is not withholding merit raises, and the provost has had no role in the absence of raises. It's the existing contract, which does not "guarantee yearly raises for all returning GTAs;" it only guaranteed raises through the past academic year, 2004-05. That's why KU urged KAPE to participate in bargaining sessions during the summer, so a new contract might be resolved by fall 2005 and GTAs could get raises. But KAPE declined to meet during the summer.
benefits because they want GTA positions to expand into something verging on long-term employment.
next year. As an open letter on April 25 to the new provost reveals, the KAPE negotiators are not being candid.
The fact is, GTAs receive year-to-year contracts, for a maximum of five years. Extending the five-year limit would deny incoming graduate students access to teaching assistantships. KAPE ignores this and dismisses the lecturer positions, research assistantships, and other forms of support that are viable options for those who really want to stay on. The timely completion of graduate work is considered in national evaluations of program quality, but KAPE doesn't acknowledge that, either. It is simply in KU's and current and future graduate students' best interests to ensure that students move through their programs and find full-time work in academe or elsewhere in a timely manner.
A basic tenet of the contract negotiation process is that both parties must agree on all aspects of the proposed agreement before it can be ratified formally. KAPE thinks it can pick what it likes and say no to everything else. That's not how contract negotiations work here or elsewhere.
The KAPE negotiators are willing to sacrifice a new contract with better wages and
KAPE would like to cloud the fact that it has forfeited signifi-
cantsalary increases for current GTAs. KU offered a lump sum

declined. KAPE also haswalked away from a minimum $1,000
increase to the base salary for those GTAs who make the curren-
timum salary of $10,000
(about 20 percent of GTAs) -- a
10 percent increase in wages.
The fact is, GTAs receive year-to-year contracts, for a maximum of five years. Extending the five-year limit would deny incoming graduate students access to teaching assistantships.
For the 80 percent of GTAs who earn more, the dollar amount left on the table is larger. No other employee group at KU has been offered or will receive a similar 10-percent wage increase.
While a formal impasse has been declared, we still have our offer on the table and are willing to conclude the negotiations and end uncertainty for our GTAs now.
Barring this, we will follow the process set out in the state Public Employee Relations Act to bring this matter to an orderly conclusion.
Ola Faucher is director of Human Resources and Equal Opportunity. Don Steeples is a distinguished professor of applied geophysics and vice provost for scholarly support. Both are members of the KU negotiating team.
COMMENTARY
Pro-life movement needs more forceful tactics
After returning from the 33rd March for Life in January, I was convinced that the pro-life movement was, is and will continue to be the next great civil rights movement. And, I still am. But, I am also a bit disheartened at the form the movement has taken. Today's Right to Life movement is really nothing at all like previous civil-rights struggles.
What today's movement lacks is any sense of forcefulness. It has overcompensated for the venomous tactics used by the abortion-rights camp and now is too concerned with living out "nice guy" principles. The movement has failed to remember that once in a while, their words need to have some

the countless American and Allied lives that were lost in the process. We like to think that it was Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s speeches and demonstrations that effected their victory. But, again, we forget that movement was only successful because of the sacrifices and struggles of many men and women.
We like to think that it was an amendment to the Constitution that freed the slaves. But, we forget that without a war, that amendment would have had no practical meaning. We like to think that maybe it was a treaty or surrender that freed the Jews and other minorities from the camps, glossing over
teeth to them.
the capital will not bring about change. And, while not denying the efficacy of prayer, a rosary vigil will have absolutely no effect without some temporal action. As the saying goes,
"Pray as if everything depended on God; work as if everything depended on you."
Today's challenge, though, is met with a weak and impotent response. The message is much too symbolic and not nearly practical enough. Moreover, the movement goes so far out of its way to ensure that it does not step on anyone's toes that the message does not get across. It is like trying to stop a bull with a needle. A one day march on
Perhaps, we could march for maybe two, perhaps three days. That would be a novelty. I do not know how long the Ukrainians had to protest awaiting the Orange Revolution, but I am sure that it was more than one day. And, I am equally sure that they did not apply for a permit and follow a parade route approved by the city government.
issue. This movement is unlike all others, not only in its strategy and tactics, but its root cause is also different. Instead of having a clear antagonist to fight against, very often the ones committing these evils are those most in need of help. If through our complacency, a woman chooses abortion in her despair, the battle has already been lost and we are just as culpable as any. However, that despair does not make the decision any more right. And, concern for being caring and understanding should not dilute the overwhelming message of the movement.

Dylan's music spans generations
LIZ STUEWE opinion@kansan.com
It was a dream come true: I finally saw Bob Dylan, live. He played at the Midland Theater in Kansas City, Mo., last week. He still has obvious talent and a strong stage performance, but even more interesting than Dylan behind the keyboard were the people in the audience. Predictably, the crowd was made up mostly of baby boomers — folks our parents' age who would have been in college during Dylan's heyday — but I was pleasantly surprised to see a decent number of college students at the concert.
COMMENTARY
"You fasten the triggers/For the others to fire/Then you set back and watch/When the death count gets higher/You hide in your mansion/As young people's blood/Flows out of their bodies/And is buried in the mud." Read the rest of the lyrics at BobDylan.com and you will wonder how a song written in the 1960s can sound more genuine than any music being released today.
But what was most interesting was watching the people who stood during Dylan's classic anti-war song "Masters of War." It was all college kids, ranging from the Ziggy Marley group to the emo kids to the girls who had obviously had a little too much to drink. They were all standing and cheering. And after rereading the lyrics, I understand why college students today would relate so powerfully to this song. It is a compelling war protest song, released on "The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan" in 1963, that echoes many of the complaints the youth have today about the foreign entanglements of the United States government.
Bob Dylan's ability to clearly reflect the anger of a generation is a testament to his skill, and until the day when our generation can produce an artist with similar talent I will be recycling protest songs from the master.

TALK TO US
The second balcony was a lively bunch, frequently commenting that it was a good thing we came to hear Dylan and not to see him. I may have been barely able to see Dylan's red cowboy boots, but I was at a great advantage to see who stood up to dance, sing and cheer during each song.
During "Rainy Day Women #12 & 35" all the hippie kids with their Ziggy Marley T-shirts stood up to cheer, not surprising since the chorus of the song is "everybody must get stoned."

During "Don't Think Twice, It's all Right" the gray-haired, beer-bellied crowd stood; a tribute, I assume, to the fact that they were actually listening to Dylan in 1963 when the song was released. And naturally, everybody went crazy during "Like a Rolling Stone," arguably the best rock song of the 20th century.

Suspension overruled

OTTAWA - A high school student in Franklin County who was suspended from school for 12 days because he has not been immunized for mumps has been allowed back early.
David Brockway, 15, was forced to leave school Monday and would have missed his prom and a music trip during the suspension. But the family said school officials on Tuesday decided to allow them to sign a waiver allowing the boy to return to school.

Six cases of mumps had been reported in Franklin County as of Tuesday, county Health Department Director Barbara Conus said. All six people either had the vaccination or had the disease before.
School officials were acting on a state form that John Brockway had signed, which states that students who are not immunized can be excluded from school in the case of a vaccine-preventable disease outbreak. Brockway had claimed a religions exemption
from immunizations for his children.
"I thought we had hit a wall." Brockway said of the board meeting.
Principal Justin Henry said the language on the waiver is specific to mumps.
Superintendent Jan Collins said Tuesday that the school had to research whether districts have to follow the original form. Officials called Brockway's family on Tuesday afternoon to deliver the news.

Flood proposal finds foes
GOVERNMENT
BY SAM HANANEL THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Missouri Attorney General Jay Nixon said Wednesday he would file a lawsuit this week to stop plans for a man-made spring rise on the Missouri River.
Nixon said a plan by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to release water from upstream reservoirs next month could flood hundreds of thousands of acres of farmland in Missouri.
The corps proposed the spring rise to encourage spawning by an endangered fish, the pallid sturgeon. Agency officials say they are taking precautions to minimize the risk of flooding.
Corps officials have said water levels in the six upper reservoirs feeding the main stem of the river likely will be high enough for a release to take place after
May 1.
May 1. Earlier this week, the U.S. Supreme Court left in place a lower court order that found flood control and navigation are the highest priorities for managing the river.
ing the river. Referring to this week's legal developments, Nixon said the corps was moving forward with the spring rise despite its failure to analyze possible flood problems in an environmental impact statement, as required by federal law.
"Releasing water during a time of year when the lower Missouri River Valley experiences frequent rainstorms substantially increases the risk that prime farmland will be flooded and that many Missouri farmers will take a financial hit," Nixon said in a written statement.
"The corps' hurried process for evaluating potential alternatives failed to adequately account for these serious impacts. We're suing to stop this wasteful and risky spring rise," Nixon said.
In a separate statement, Missouri Gov. Matt Blunt said it would be "irresponsible" for the corps to move forward with the without an environmental impact statement.

"I want the corps to reconsider this ill-conceived plan." Blunt said. "And if they do not, we will vigorously pursue all available legal options."
The lawsuit seeking an injunction will be filed in federal district court in Minnesota, Nixon said.
Catching some air
Corps officials had planned for two spring rises this year but called off a pulse scheduled for March 1 because water levels in reservoirs that feed the river were too low.

Royals recall pitcher for being out of shape
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City Royals recalled right-hander Runelvys Hernandez from Triple-A Omaha and scheduled him to start against Minnesota.
Hernandez originally was to be a member of the Royals' rotation but was sent down when he reported to spring training out of shape.
The Associated Press
Baseball
CONTINUED FROM 12A
"He got some hits today and he was absolutely outstanding for me, blocking balls in the dirt." Czyz said.
Creighton had twice as many hurlers take the mound Wednesday afternoon as Kansas did. The only highlight of senior right-hander Jeff Daneff's start was a strikeout of senior infielder Jared Schweitzer in the top of the first. The strikeout marked Daneff's (0-2) first of the season. It was his lone strikeout, and he exited the game the next inning.
Of the pitchers that followed, only sophomore Venditte experienced any success against a Kansas lineup that featured four seniors – infielder Ritchie Price, Baty, Milner and Schweizer.
- all in a row. Venditte lasted two perfect innings and had two strikeouts.
Freshman righty Zak Moore, senior lefty Trevor Benson, junior lefty Scott Reese and senior righty Tony Bilek were the other Creighton pitchers to toe the rubber and they joined forces to allow seven runs on 11 hits and three walks in 5.1 innings, while striking out four.
The Kansas offense took a two-inning break after the first, but scored its third run of the game in the top of the fourth on a Spitzfaden single that drove in sophomore outfielder John Allman.
"I had the jitters a little bit early off, but I've caught a lot of games in my career, so it was just getting back into things," Spitzfaden said.
Spitzfaden was starting in place of freshman catcher Buck Afenir, who was out with the mumps. Spitzfaden was clutch, going 2-for-4 with an RBI.
Kansas hitters went on a three-inning hiatus after the fourth, but went out with a bang in the eighth and ninth innings, scoring three runs per inning. In the eighth, back-to-back singles by Spitzfaden and Simpson plated Allman and sophomore third baseman Erik Morrison for the

"I had the jitters a little bit early off, but I've caught a lot of games in my career, so it was just getting back into things."
Allman was next to bat and headed to first base after he thought he was hit by a pitch. However, home plate umpire Mike Grace stopped Allman and told him to get back in the box, saying the ball had hit Allman's bat instead. So, Allman stepped up to the plate again and responded with a bases-clearing double.

Food poisons tournament opportunities
'Hawks compete despite illness
BY ASHER FUSCO

KANSAN SPORTSWITER
When Ross Randall took his team out for dinner the night before the Big 12 Championship, he didn't expect it to cost him the majority of his starting lineup.
firedup.
Four of the five Jayhawk golfers slated to compete for the Big 12 crown in Tulsa.
Okla., came down with food poisoning after Sunday night's team dinner, leaving some doubt about whether the team would be able to play.
Irvin A.
"I really Randall didn't think we
can't think of the tournament could finish the tournament, but our guys hung in there," Randall, Kansas coach, said.
All five of the Jayhawks ended up finishing the tournament, and the team placed eighth overall with a total score of 897. Kansas was the No. 11 seed coming into the tournament, but the team edged out rivals Missouri and Kansas State.
Kalissa Suarez.
Junior Gary Woodland was the only Jayhawk left unaffected by food poisoning, and he took full advantage of his good health. He finished tied for seventh place overall in individual competition. Woodland endured a disappointing final round, but still managed to shoot only 5-over par for the entire tournament.
ment.
"I was upset that I didn't finish how I wanted, but I'm pretty happy about finishing seventh and playing some pretty solid golf." Woodland said.
Despite feeling under the weather, the rest of the Jayhawks posted solid results. Senior Pete Krsnich shot three rounds in the mid-70s to finish tied for 32nd, while junior Tyler Docking finished in a tie for 45th place.
Senior Luke Trammell, who spent much of Monday evening receiving hydration through an IV in the hospital, managed to shoot a 232 to tie for 52nd overall.
Redshirt freshman Zach Pederson got off to a good start in his first round, but posted high scores in his second and third rounds to finish 57th overall.
Oklahoma pulled away from the pack in the third round and took home the Big 12 Championship. Matthew Rosenfeld of Texas shot even par for the tournament to grab the individual title.
The resilience shown by the Kansas golfers may pay dividends when the NCAA sends out invites to the regional tournament, held May 18 to 20. In the last several weeks, the team's strong play has pushed it directly onto the edge of the postseason picture.

"We could be the last team in or one of the last teams out," Randall said. "It just depends on what the committee looks at."

Favre decides to play again
BY CHRIS JENKINS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MILWAUKEE — Brett Favre certainly isn't the first star quarterback to have a difficult time deciding when the time is right to step aside.
Johnny Unitas and Joe Namath are considered prime examples of NFL legends who held on too long. And Favre's fellow Green Bay Packers icon, Bart Starr, includes himself on that list.
"In hindsight, I should have done it sooner," Starr said of his retirement from the Packers in
1971. "But I have no regrets."
But Starr isn't drawing a comparison between the way his career ended and Favre's decision to return to the Packers next season, announced by the team Wednesday morning. Starr doesn't think Favre, who turns 37 Oct. 10, is making a mistake.
Favre threw a career-worst 29 interceptions last season, causing some to wonder if his skills were beginning to erode. But Starr said fans shouldn't read too much into the way Favre played last season as the Packers were beset by injuries and free-agent losses.
Favre began waffling on his future toward the end of last season, kicking off retirement speculation that is becoming a winter ritual in Wisconsin.
But the so-called "Favre Watch" grew to epic proportions in 2006 as Favre took nearly four months to make a final decision. Team officials were careful not to put public pressure on Favre, but the process wore on fans and the media.
"I've read in the media that
people were frustrated with the length of time it took Brett to come to this decision," said former Packers coach Mike Sherman, now an assistant with the Houston Texans. "Last I checked, he hasn't missed any preseason practices or games yet in the 2006 season."
It is not immediately clear if Favre's commitment runs beyond this season, although he said in a newspaper interview last month he wouldn't consider playing beyond 2006.

A partner takes a much stronger stand than he or she has in the past. Together a new idea arises. You might be disappointed by a friend who does or doesn't do. New beginnings become possible, financially and emotionally.
Tonight: Togetherness.
**COUNTRY (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)** ★★★
If you let others have their way, you will like what happens. If you challenge others, you might be left out in the cold. You can always say no to a plan or bad idea. Have more faith in the people who surround you.
Tonight: Get into weekend mode
*SAGITTARIUS* (Nov 22-Dec. 21) ★★★★
Dig into your work and get the job done.
What you initiate is likely to last or be a success. A partner might play devil's advocate. Welcome the feedback. Ultimately, you are enlisting this person's help.
Tonight: Easy does it.
CAPRICORIN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ******
Your imagination delights those who do not have heavy or serious concerns. You could inadvertently irritate a close associate who has a lot on his or her mind. This too will pass. Add more zip to your daily life.
Someone's suggestion might surprise you.
Tonight. Love the moment.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★ ★ Others might be challenging. You could be happiest staying close to home or isolating yourself. If you are able to work from home, you might want to think about it. Spruce up your personal space.
Tonight: Relax at home.
PICSSE (Feb. 19-March 20) ★★★★
If you are tired, find a more efficient way or creative solution. You don't need to do everything all by yourself. A discussion draws many ideas to make your life much easier. Learn to communicate more often.
Tonight. A long-overdue talk.

Food poisons tournament opportunities
'Hawks compete despite illness
BY ASHER FUSCO
afusco@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
When Ross Randall took his team out for dinner the night before the Big 12 Championship, he didn't expect it to cost him the majority of his starting lineup.
Four of the five Jayhawk golfers slated to compete for the Big 12 crown in Tulsa,
Okla., came down with food poisoning after Sunday night's team dinner, leaving some doubt about whether the team would be able to play.
MARK HUNT
"I really didn't think we
didn't think could finish the tournament, but our guys hung in there." Randall, Kansas coach, said.
Kandall, Karrison
All five of the Jayhawks ended up finishing the tournament, and the team placed eighth overall with a total score of 897. Kansas was the No. 11 seed coming into the tournament, but the team edged out rivals Missouri and Kansas State.
Junior Gary Woodland was the only Jayhawk left unaffected by food poisoning, and he took full advantage of his good health. He finished tied for seventh place overall in individual competition. Woodland endured a disappointing final round, but still managed to shoot only 5-over par for the entire tournament.
"I was upset that I didn't finish how I wanted, but I'm pretty happy about finishing seventh and playing some pretty solid golf," Woodland said.
Despite feeling under the weather, the rest of the Jayhawks posted solid results. Senior Pete Krsnich shot three rounds in the mid-70s to finish tied for 32nd, while junior Tyler Docking finished in a tie for 45th place.
43rd place.
Senior Luke Trammell, who spent much of Monday evening receiving hydration through an IV in the hospital, managed to shoot a 232 to tie for 52nd overall.
overall.
Redshirt freshman Zach Pederson got off to a good start in his first round, but posted high scores in his second and third rounds to finish 57th overall.
Oklahoma pulled away from the pack in the third round and took home the Big 12 Championship. Matthew Rosenfeld of Texas shot even par for the tournament to grab the individual title.
The resilience shown by the Kansas golfers may pay dividends when the NCAA sends out invites to the regional tournament, held May 18 to 20. In the last several weeks, the team's strong play has pushed it directly onto the edge of the postseason picture.
The Jayhawks will have to wait a few more days while the NCAA lays out the regional fields.

"We could be the last team in or one of the last teams out," Randall said. "It just depends on what the committee looks at."

Favre decides to play again
BY CHRIS JENKINS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MILWAUKEE — Brett Favre certainly isn't the first star quarterback to have a difficult time deciding when the time is right to step aside.
Johnny Unitas and Joe Namath are considered prime examples of NFL legends who held on too long. And Favre's fellow Green Bay Packers icon, Bart Starr, includes himself on that list.
"In hindsight, I should have done it sooner," Starr said of his retirement from the Packers in
1971. "But I have no regrets."
But Starr isn't drawing a comparison between the way his career ended and Favre's decision to return to the Packers next season, announced by the team Wednesday morning. Starr doesn't think Favre, who turns 37 Oct. 10, is making a mistake.
Favre threw a career-worst 29 interceptions last season, causing some to wonder if his skills were beginning to erode. But Starr said fans shouldn't read too much into the way Favre played last season as the Packers were beset by injuries and free-agent losses.
Favre began waffling on his future toward the end of last season, kicking off retirement speculation that is becoming a winter ritual in Wisconsin.
But the so-called "Favre Watch" grew to epic proportions in 2006 as Favre took nearly four months to make a final decision. Team officials were careful not to put public pressure on Favre, but the process wore on fans and the media.
"I've read in the media that
people were frustrated with the length of time it took Brett to come to this decision," said former Packers coach Mike Sherman, now an assistant with the Houston Texans. "Last I checked, he hasn't missed any preseason practices or games yet in the 2006 season."
It is not immediately clear if Favre's commitment runs beyond this season, although he said in a newspaper interview last month he wouldn't consider playing beyond 2006.

Suspension overruled
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
OTTAWA — A high school student in Franklin County who was suspended from school for 12 days because he has not been immunized for mumps has been allowed back early.
David Brockway, 15, was forced to leave school Monday and would have missed his prom and a music trip during the suspension. But the family said school officials on Tuesday decided to allow them to sign a waiver allowing the boy to return to school.
John Brockway, his father, told school officials at a board meeting Monday that his son

"On the one hand, I wanted to take a stand," David Brockway said. "If worse came to worse, I might have just gone and got the vaccination. But things worked out."
Flood proposal finds foes
GOVERNMENT
BY SAM HANANEL THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Missouri Attorney General Jay Nixon said Wednesday he would file a lawsuit this week to stop plans for a man-made spring rise on the Missouri River.
Nixon said a plan by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to release water from upstream reservoirs next month could flood hundreds of thousands of acres farmland in Missouri.
The corps proposed the spring rise to encourage spawning by an endangered fish, the pallid sturgeon. Agency officials say they are taking precautions to minimize the risk of flooding.
Corps officials have said water levels in the six upper reservoirs feeding the main stem of the river likely will be high enough for a release to take place after
May 1.
May 1. Earlier this week, the U.S. Supreme Court left in place a lower court order that found flood control and navigation are the highest priorities for managing the river.
ing the river. Referring to this week's legal developments, Nixon said the corps was moving forward with the spring rise despite its failure to analyze possible flood problems in an environmental impact statement, as required by federal law.
federal law. "Releasing water during a time of year when the lower Missouri River Valley experiences frequent rainstorms substantially increases the risk that prime farmland will be flooded and that many Missouri farmers will take a financial hit." Nixon said in a written statement.
said in a written statement "The corps' hurried process for evaluating potential alternatives failed to adequately account for these serious impacts. We're suing to stop this wasteful and risky spring rise," Nixon said.

In a separate statement, Missouri Gov. Matt Blunt said it would be "irresponsible" for the corps to move forward with the without an environmental impact statement.
petel
"I want the corps to reconsider this ill-conceived plan." Blunt said. "And if they do not, we will vigorously pursue all available legal options."
The lawsuit seeking an injunction will be filed in federal district court in Minnesota, Nixon said.
Corps officials had planned for two spring rises this year but called off a pulse scheduled for March 1 because water levels in reservoirs that feed the river were too low.

Royals recall pitcher for being out of shape
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - The Kansas City Royals recalled right-hander Runvelys Hernandez from Triple-A Omaha and scheduled him to start against Minnesota.
Hernandez originally was to be a member of the Royals' rotation but was sent down when he reported to spring training out of shape.
The Associated Press
Baseball COUNTING FROM 124

"He got some hits today and he was absolutely outstanding for me, blocking balls in the dirt." Czyz said.
Creighton had twice as many hurlers take the mound Wednesday afternoon as Kansas did. The only highlight of senior right-hander Jeff Daneff's start was a strikeout of senior infielder Jared Schweitzer in the top of the first. The strikeout marked Daneff's (0-2) first of the season. It was his lone strikeout, and he exited the game the next inning.
Of the pitchers that followed, only sophomore Venditte experienced any success against a Kansas lineup that featured four seniors - infielder Ritchie Price, Baty, Milner and Schweitzer - all in a row. Venditte lasted two perfect innings and had two strikeouts.
Freshman righty Zak Moore, senior lefty Trevor Benson, junior lefty Scott Reese and senior righty Tony Bilek were the other Creighton pitchers to toe the rubber and they joined forces to allow seven runs on 11 hits and three walks in 5.1 innings, while striking out four.
The Kansas offense took a two-inning break after the first, but scored its third run of the game in the top of the fourth on a Spitzfaden single that drove in sophomore outfielder John Allman.
Spitzfaden was starting in place of freshman catcher Buck Afenir, who was out with the mumps. Spitzfaden was clutch, going 2-for-4 with an RBI.
"I had the jitters a little bit early off, but I've caught a lot of games in my career, so it was just getting back into things," Spitzfaden said.
Kansas hitters went on a three-inning hiatus after the fourth, but went out with a bang in the eighth and ninth innings, scoring three runs per inning. In the eighth, back-to-back singles by Spitzfaden and Simpson plated Allman and sophomore third baseman Erik Morrison for the

Allman was next to bat and headed to first base after he thought he was hit by a pitch. However, home plate umpire Mike Grace stopped Allman and told him to get back in the box, saying the ball had hit Allman's bat instead. So, Allman stepped up to the plate again and responded with a bases-clearing double.

Fight
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
The panelists agreed that the assumption that Lawrence draws a homeless population is a myth.
"People don't come from all over the nation to sleep on a mat." Hartnett said.
Hartnett said the second-place ranking by the National Coalition for the Homeless and the media headlines sparked an open public debate. She is currently working with a class of students on a survey to "fill the gap" and find out what the homeless in Lawrence think about people's behavior toward them.
Highberger said he thought
the ranking was inaccurate. Specific ordinances like the prohibiting of camping by rivers, on rooftops and on sidewalks were targeted as reasons behind the city's "mean" nature.
Highberger said other jurisdictions around the nation have the same ordinances, and that they were passed to solve problems, not out of spite for the homeless.

Workers rally to protest Wal-Mart

Unions representing 6 million workers rallied Wednesday in 35 cities from New York to Los Angeles to Kansas City, Mo., to protest what they called inadequate health-care coverage by Wal-Mart Stores Inc., the nation's largest employer.
In Atlanta, about 50 to 60 people gathered in a city church.
In Denver, about 200 people turned out. Only 14 showed up in El Paso, Texas, where organizers said they were unable to get a city permit for a larger demonstration.
In Cleveland, WKYC TV reported dozens of protesters. Organizers said the totals were over 350 in Los Angeles and Portland, Ore., and around 100 in Pittsburgh, Pa.
The Change to Win labor federation of seven unions, which broke away from the AFL-CIO last year to form the nation's second largest
labor group, said Wal-Mart epitomized a business model of low pay and benefits that drag down the middle class. The AFL-CIO has about 8 million members.
"You can't really talk about these issues without talking about Wal-Mart. Wal-Mart drags everybody down, but they are not the only bad actor out there," said Carole Florman, spokeswoman for Change to Win.
It is the federation's first national rally targeting Bentonville, Ark.-based Wal-Mart and part of a broader campaign called "Make work pay" aimed at raising living standards for workers, she said.
Wal-Mart called the rallies a political stunt that ignored the fact that it created 225,000 U.S. jobs last year and provides career opportunities and above-average pay and benefits for the retail sector.
It also says it saves its customers, including working families, about $2,300 a year.

Enron founder takes the stand

Lay faces six counts of fraud and conspiracy

BY KRISTEN HAYS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HOUSTON — Enron Corp. founder Kenneth Lay dropped his famous affable persona as his cross-examination began Wednesday, snarling at a prosecutor who accused him of witness tampering when the ex-chairman and chief executive called several potential witnesses during his fraud and conspiracy trial.
Jurors who had been listening impassively snapped to attention.
"Did you have any conversations to get your story straight for trial?" asked prosecutor John Hueston, equally primed for battle.
"Can you elaborate on that Mr. Hueston?" Lay shot back. "I'm not sure what story you're talking about."
Lay said he called the executives in March — the same month Fastow testified — but he said he didn't try to align their memories of the meeting with his.
The prosecutor noted that Lay called two Goldman Sachs & Co. executives during the trial regarding a September 2001 meeting about Enron.
"I was trying to make sure some facts I had about a meeting we had in the fall of 2001
Former Enron Chief Financial Officer Andrew Fastow — whom Lay has dubbed a traitor, liar and crook — testified that he and Lay met with the executives to discuss restructuring Enron at the same time Lay was telling employees and reporters that the company was sound. Lay says the executives called the meeting to discuss Enron's vulnerability to a takeover.
was right. I was just trying to make sure that all of my facts were as accurate as they could be," he declared, noting further that Fastow "gave a fake version of that meeting."
Lay, known in Houston for his avuncular, polite persona and who frequently headlined charity events, shed any pretenses to his usual diplomacy when faced with the prosecutor who secured his indictment in July 2004. Lay's visible anger and Hueston's rapid-fire questioning produced an electricity that has been absent from the trial, even during almost eight days of testimony from his far scrappier co-defendant, former Chief Executive Jeffrey Skilling.
After a short afternoon break,
Lay appeared to calm down
Lay also acknowledged he tried to contact Vince Kaminski, a former top risk analyst for Enron, nine days before Kaminski testified for the prosecution. Kaminski told jurors he got a cold reaction when he told Lay and other executives in October 2001 that Enron needed to "come clean" on questionable financial structures in the weeks before it crashed into bankruptcy proceedings.
"I was trying to reach Vince Kaminski a long time ago before I even knew he would testify. I was trying to reconnect with Vince, to talk to him about some issues I wanted to talk to him about." Lay said.
Lay said Wednesday he thought Glisan, who is serving
a prison term for creating one of the structures Kaminski complained about, has been under "enormous pressure" from federal prosecutors.
Lay faces six counts of fraud and conspiracy from when he reprised the role of CEO following Skilling's abrupt resignation in mid-August 2001. Skilling faces 28 counts of fraud, conspiracy, insider trading and lying to auditors related to his activities from 1999 to 2001.
Once jurors in the Lay-Skilling case begin deliberating, Lay faces a trial without a jury before Lake on bank fraud charges for allegedly reneging on an agreement with banks not to use $75 million in loans to buy Enron stock on margin.

OUR OPINION
Chinese, not Spanish is language of future
One trend KU students can ill afford to miss out on is learning a second language.
En vogue right now is Spanish. Our generation seemingly has been cognizant of this concern since we were in kindergarten learning how to count to diez. Now more than ever, with the increased presence of Latino culture coming to the North American scene, more bilingual individuals are desired in various professions—from marketing to hospitality or politics —in order to reach this continually burgeoning demographic.
Looking further down the line, however, there's another language that will be taking over as the one to learn: Mandarin Chinese. Just to give you some idea of the importance China has even within our own local community, the country bought more than $300 million in Kansas goods and services last year — making it the third leading buyer — according to the state Department of Commerce.
Luckily, if you have contemplated learning the most widely spoken language in the world in anticipation of the growing financial and cultural exchange between the United States and China, the University of Kansas is already way ahead of you. Much to the University's credit, it is well-poised to accommodate the growing interest in Chinese culture, especially because of the soon-to-be-established Confucius Institute at the Edwards campus. The institute, which partners with China's Ministry of Education, is part of a network that plans to create a total of 100 similarly named institutes worldwide. Currently only four exist. It will offer Chinese language instruction, training Chinese language teachers and promoting outreach programs on Chinese culture.
Issue: The prevalence of Mandarin Chinese
Stance: Chinese will soon outstrip Spanish in importance. The University is preparing students well.
To date, only 90 students are enrolled in the four levels of Chinese language offered. However, this number is sure to increase in the coming years, thanks to the University's forward thinking and continued increase in relations with China. But why not get started now? There's nothing like being ahead of a trend.
Here on the Lawrence campus we have the Center for East Asian Studies, founded in 1959. Now with a total of 51 faculty members, 25 of which are entirely devoted to the center, it has gained an impressive reputation throughout the nation. KU students can earn bachelor's or master's degrees in Chinese language and literature or Chinese language and culture or take courses on China in various departments and schools. Not to mention students also have the option to study abroad or get involved in a direct exchange program in the People's Republic of China for a year, semester or summer. And just recently, the Office of International Programs announced the opening of the competition for three direct exchange scholarships with partner universities in the People's Republic of China.

It must be hard for KAPE
It must be hard for KAPE — the GTA union — to try to explain to campus GTAs why they received no salary increases this year and might not next year.
As an open letter on April 25 to the new provost reveals, the KAPE negotiators are not being candid.
The university is not withholding merit raises, and the provost has had no role in the absence of raises. It's the existing contract, which does not "guarantee yearly raises for all returning GTAs;" it only guaranteed raises through the past academic year, 2004-05.
That's why KU urged KAPE to participate in bargaining sessions during the summer, so a new contract might be resolved by fall 2005 and GTAs could get raises. But KAPE declined to meet during the summer.
A basic tenet of the contract negotiation process is that both parties must agree on all aspects of the proposed agreement before it can be ratified formally. KAPE thinks it can pick what it likes and say no to everything else. That's not how contract negotiations work here or elsewhere.
The fact is, GTAs receive year-to-year contracts, for a maximum of five years. Extending the five-year limit would deny incoming graduate students access to teaching assistantships. KAPE ignores this and dismisses the lecturer positions, research assistantships, and other forms of support that are viable options for those who really want to stay on. The timely completion of graduate work is considered in national evaluations of program quality, but KAPE doesn't acknowledge that, either. It is simply in KU's and current and future graduate students' best interests to ensure that students move through their programs and find full-time work in academe or elsewhere in a timely manner.
The KAPE negotiators are willing to sacrifice a new contract with better wages and
The fact is, GTAs receive year-to-year contracts, for a maximum of five years. Extending the five-year limit would deny incoming graduate students access to teaching assistantships.
KAPE would like to cloud the fact that it has forfeited significantsalary increases for current GTAs. KU offered a lump sum 5.5 percentincrease for current GTAs, payable in May. KAPE declined. KAPE also haswalked away from a minimum $1,000 increase to the base salary for those GTAs who make the current minimum salary of $10,000 (about 20 percent of GTAs) – a 10 percent increase in wages.
For the 80 percent of GTAs who earn more, the dollar amount left on the table is larger. No other employee group at KU has been offered or will receive a similar 10-percent wage increase.
While a formal impasse has been declared, we still have our offer on the table and are willing to conclude the negotiations and end uncertainty for our GTAs now.
Barring this, we will follow the process set out in the state Public Employee Relations Act to bring this matter to an orderly conclusion.

Pro-life movement needs more forceful tactics
COMMENTARY
After returning from the 33rd March for Life in January, I was convinced that the pro-life movement was, is and will continue to be the next great civil rights movement. And, I still am. But, I am also a bit disheartened at the form the movement has taken. Today's Right to Life movement is really nothing at all like previous civil-rights struggles.
What today's movement lacks is any sense of forcefulness. It has overcompensated for the venomous tactics used by the abortion-rights camp and now is too concerned with living out "nice guy" principles. The movement has failed to remember that once in a while, their words need to have some

the countless American and Allied lives that were lost in the process. We like to think that it was Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s speeches and demonstrations that effected their victory. But, again, we forget that movement was only successful because of the sacrifices and struggles of many men and women.
We like to think that it was an amendment to the Constitution that freed the slaves. But, we forget that without a war, that amendment would have had no practical meaning. We like to think that maybe it was a treaty or surrender that freed the Jews and other minorities from the camps, glosing over
teeth to them.
Today's challenge, though, is met with a weak and impotent response. The message is much too symbolic and not nearly practical enough. Moreover, the movement goes so far out of its way to ensure that it does not step on anyone's toes that the message does not get across. It is like trying to stop a bull with a needle. A one day march on
the capital will not bring about change. And, while not denying the efficacy of prayer, a rosary vigil will have absolutely no effect without some temporal action. As the saying goes,
"Pray as if everything depended on God; work as if everything depended on you."
Perhaps, we could march for maybe two, perhaps three days. That would be a novelty. I do not know how long the Ukrainians had to protest awaiting the Orange Revolution, but I am sure that it was more than one day. And, I am equally sure that they did not apply for a permit and follow a parade route approved by the city government.
But, this is not a clear-cut
issue. This movement is unlike all others, not only in its strategy and tactics, but its root cause is also different. Instead of having a clear antagonist to fight against, very often the ones committing these evils are those most in need of help. If through our complacency, a woman chooses abortion in her despair, the battle has already been lost and we are just as culpable as any. However, that despair does not make the decision any more right. And, concern for being caring and understanding should not dilute the overwhelming message of the movement.

Dylan's music spans generations

COMMENTARY
It was a dream come true: I finally saw Bob Dylan, live. He played at the Midland Theater in Kansas City, Mo., last week. He still has obvious talent and a strong stage performance, but even more interesting than Dylan behind the keyboard were the people in the audience. Predictably, the crowd was made up mostly of baby boomers — folks our parents' age who would have been in college during Dylan's heyday — but I was pleasantly surprised to see a decent number of college students at the concert.
Bob Dylan's ability to clearly reflect the anger of a generation is a testament to his skill, and until the day when our generation can produce an artist with similar talent I will be recycling protest songs from the master.
But what was most interesting was watching the people who stood during Dylan's classic anti-war song "Masters of War." It was all college kids, ranging from the Ziggy Marley group to the emo kids to the girls who had obviously had a little too much to drink. They were all standing and cheering. And after rereading the lyrics, I understand why college students today would relate so powerfully to this song. It is a compelling war protest song, released on "The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan" in 1963, that echoes many of the complaints the youth have today about the foreign entanglements of the United States government.
"You fasten the triggers/For the others to fire/Then you set back and watch/When the death count gets higher/You hide in your mansion/As young people's blood/Flows out of their bodies/And is buried in the mud." Read the rest of the lyrics at BobDylan.com and you will wonder how a song written in the 1960s can sound more genuine than any music being released today.

TALK TO US
The second balcony was a lively bunch, frequently commenting that it was a good thing we came to hear Dylan and not to see him. I may have been barely able to see Dylan's red cowboy boots, but I was at a great advantage to see who stood up to dance, sing and cheer during each song.

During "Don't Think Twice, It's all Right" the gray-haired, beer-bellied crowd stood; a tribute, I assume, to the fact that they were actually listening to Dylan in 1963 when the song was released. And naturally, everybody went crazy during "Like a Rolling Stone," arguably the best rock song of the 20th century.
During "Rainy Day Women #12 & 35" all the hippie kids with their Ziggy Marley T-shirts stood up to cheer, not surprising since the chorus of the song is "everybody must get stoned."

State requires vaccine
Law aims at protecting students
Gov. Kathleen Sebelius has made a move to protect students against bacterial meningitis at all Kansas universities and colleges.
Sebelius recently signed into law a policy that mandated every university and college to require that all incoming students intending to live in student housing be vaccinated against the disease. The policy will take effect in the fall of 2007. Waivers are available for anyone who refuses the vaccine.
BY FRED A. DAVIS III
davis@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
"This is a tangible step to ensure our students who could be more susceptible to meningitis are well protected," Sebelius said.
The University of Kansas has had a policy on meningitis vaccination since August of 2005. The policy was influenced in part by KU alumnus Andy Marso, who contracted the disease in April of 2004.
No meningitis cases have been reported since.
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 3A
The University's policy requires that incoming students be vaccinated against meningitis if they intend to live in student housing. The University offers students the opportunity to waive the vaccination, yet only 5.8 percent of students chose the waiver according to Student Health Services.
92. 3 percent have received the vaccination while a mere 1.8 percent of students have been non-compliant.
Kathynn Tuttle, associate vice provost for student success, said that the compliance to the vaccination is excellent. And for those who are non-compliant, a hold prevents them from enrolling—a rule that is enforced for any non-compliance with a vaccination requirement.
Tuttle said that because students who live in group housing are more susceptible to the

disease than those who live in smaller arrangements, the need to be vaccinated is important.
Tuttle added that while being vaccinated against meningitis is effective, it does not completely prevent the onset of the disease, as is the case with any vaccine. Tuttle advises that students should be aware of any symptoms they might develop to protect themselves.
There are two different Meningitis vaccinations available from the University: Menactra, a newer vaccine that costs $103 and Menomune, which is $83.

New dean of libraries named,effective Aug.1
Kansas has named a new dean of libraries.
Lorraine Haricombe, dean of libraries at Bowling Green University in Ohio, will assume the position Aug. 1.
She will replace Stella Bentley, who has held the position since 2001.
Haricombe, visited the campus twice, most recently this past weekend.
"It's absolutely scenic," she said. "I had no idea there were hills down in that part of the country."
At Bowling Green, she has been in charge of the libraries on a campus of 20,000 students, a position she has held since 2001.
She said that while there were similarities, the job at Kansas was a larger one.
"The KU libraries are nationally recognized, and it is obviously much bigger in terms of size and collections," she said.
At Bowling Green, Haricombe has overseen efforts to move printed materials online in the form of e-reserves and electronic journals. She said the projects were similar to ones currently underway at Kansas.
Before Bowling Green, she served in administrative positions at Northern Illinois University, as well as Peninsula Technikon in the Republic of South Africa.
She also holds a teacher certification from the University of South Africa.

Man gets jail time for selling stolen goods
DALLAS — A man who pleaded guilty to selling stolen goods on eBay was sentenced to more than 14 1/2 years in federal prison, the U.S. Attorney's Office said Wednesday.
Cory I, Paris, 34, also was ordered to pay $708,699 in restitution during sentencing Tuesday and must forfeit his downtown Dallas loft.
Paris pleaded guilty in November to six counts of wire fraud, three counts of interstate transportation of stolen property and one count of bank fraud.

HOUSING
Students scramble to sublease
BY RACHEL PARKER
rparker@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Whether they are spending summer at home, at an internship, studying abroad, or working out of town, many students are in a bind to sublease their apartments or houses in Lawrence.
A problem for any potential sublessor, however, is that there are more students looking to get out of their homes than there are trying to find one.
Posts on one Lawrence apartment Web site, apartments, lawrence.com, show more than 50 listings for people looking to sublease their apartments and homes, and only 16 listings for those looking to rent.
On one long bulletin board on the first floor of Bally Hall,
more than 25 fliers were pinned by people looking for an occupant, and none by anyone looking for a place to live.
Barbara Parsons, Wallingford, Conn., graduate student, said she used a Web site last year and found two roommates she'd never met before to live with her this year at Tuckaway.
She put another ad up to find someone to live in her place for the summer, so she could save money by moving in with her boyfriend. She said she had less luck with finding someone for this summer, but she still found the advertising system to be helpful.
The process for subleasing in many apartment complexes that allow subleasing is for the individual moving out to fill out a sublease form; the complex then tries to re-rent the property.
Jessica Stewart, manager at Tuckaway Apartments, 2600 W. 6th St., said that most individuals trying to sublease their apartments did their own work to advertise to their friends and to the public. She said the management would mention the sublease if a prospective tenant was asking about one.
Stewart said that if an individual signed the form to sublease a room or apartment, he or she would be completely released and would have to resign a lease on an apartment in August for next year's living arrangements.
Other complexes, like Orchard Corners, 14th Street and Bob Billings Parkway, don't allow sub-leasing.

A one-hit wonder
Randall Sanders/KANSAN
Sophomore outfielder John Allman slides home in the fourth inning against Creighton at Community America Ballpark in Kansas City, Kan. Wednesday afternoon. Allman contributed two RBI and three runs scored to the Jayhawks' 9-1 victory over the Blueiacs.
PAGE 12A
BY SHAWN SHROYER
sshroyer@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTSWRITER
Starting his first game for Kansas, Andrew Spitzfaden had to do a double-take of Creighton lefty pitcher Pat Venditte in the top of the sixth. For the two previous batters, Vendtte pitched right-handed.
Venditte, as it turned out, was a switch pitcher. Once he saw the switch-hitting Spitzfaden approach the plate to bat from the left side, Vendite placed his reversible glove on his right hand so he could pitch left-handed.
"Well, that was the first time that I'd ever seen that and I've been playing baseball for my whole life." Spitzfaden said.
The freshman catcher Spitzfade eventually grounded out in the at-bat, but it was one of only a few hiccups for Spitzfade and the Jayhawks as Kansas — ranked No. 30 in the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association poll — rolled to a 9-1 victory against Creighton.
The runs came early and often for Kansas (31-16) on Wednesday, beginning in the first. Sophomore designated hitter Brock Simpson and senior shortstop Ritchie Price led the game off with a pair of walks. Both players moved up a base after a sacrifice bunt by senior outfielder Matt Baty.
A double by senior outfielder Gus Milner off the left-field wall drove in Simpson and Price for the first two runs of the game. The Kansas offense took it easy on Creighton (22-15) for the next few innings, but the Blue-jays offense was stagnant all game.
Freshman lefty Nick Czyz
gave Creighton some hope inits half of the first inning with a leadoff walk to junior infielder Chad Ogden. That hope was torn away from the Bluejays after a strikeout and double play.
Czyz faced the minimum in the first and followed with two straight three-up, three down innings. Not until Creighton's 13th batter came to the plate did Czyz surrender a hit. Senior infielder Zach Daeges singled to
center field with two out in the bottom of the fourth. It would be Creighton's only hit of the game.
"It's just being about to go out there and, like my brother says, strike fear in the hitter's eyes," Czyz said. "My brother been the key to my success."
Czyz (3-1) went on to throw seven innings - his longest outing of the year - allowing just one hit, one walk and one unearned run while striking out six Bluejay hitters. Freshman right-hander Paul Smyth and sophomore right-hander Matt Lane came in to throw a perfect inning apiece in relief of Czyz.
Along with being pleased with his performance, Czyz said he was ecstatc about the play of his new catcher.

SOFTBALL: 1-0
Another heartbreaker
BY RYAN SCHNEIDER

KANSAN SENIOR SPORTSWRIETER
Another one-run game, another loss for the Kansas softball team.
Kansas lost to No. 15 Nebraska Wednesday night 1-0 in Lincoln, Neb., dropping its 14th one-run game of the season.
Nebraska pitcher Ashley DeBuhr pitched a no-hitter and struck out 16 Jayhawk batters in the complete-game effort. Kansas managed just three base runners, and none reached past first base.
Junior pitcher Kassie Humphreys (12-15) lasted three and one-third innings. She struck out four batters, but allowed three hits and one run.
"They just hit the ball really well off me and started hitting balls I left over the plate," Humphreys said. "It is frustrating, my performance was as good as I wanted."
Nebraska scored its lone run in the bottom of the fourth inning. First baseman Crystal Carwile led off the inning with a single to center field. She moved to third base after shortstop Devin Porter's single. After Humphreys was replaced by senior pitcher Serena Settlemier, designated player Katie Linke's single to left field scored Carwile.
Settlemier ended the inning by striking out Carmen Kier, but the damage had already been done. The co-national player of the week would finish the night pitching two and two-thirds innings, striking out five and allowing three hits.
DeBuhr cruised to start the game, striking out the first seven Jayhawks she faced. Kansas didn't record its first base runner until
"We always enjoy facing Oklahoma because we have a pretty good rivalry with them. We want to do well and ensure a spot in the postseason"
Kassie Humphreys
Junior pitcher
the fifth inning, when Settlemier walked to lead off the inning. She was replaced by pinch runner senior Heather Stanley, but Stanley was thrown out at second after senior shortstop Destiny Frankenstein hit into a fielder's choice.
Kansas stranded Frankenstein in the fifth inning and Settlemier in the seventh, with strikeouts to end both innings. It marked the first time the Jayhawks have been no-hit this season.
The loss dropped Kansas to 27-22 and 6-8 in the Big 12 Conference.
Kansas will travel to Norman, Okla. for a weekend series with No. 21 Oklahoma Saturday and Sunday.
"We always enjoy facing Oklahoma because we have a pretty good rivalry with them," Humphreys said. "We want to do well and ensure a spot in the postseason."
Notes:
Kansas dropped to 0-2 in Big 12 play against Nebraska and 1-2 on the season. The Jahayhaks defeated the Cornhuskers in non-conference play 4-0 at the Best Western Airport Festival in Tulsa, Okla.

MICHAEL PHILLIPS
mphillips@kansan.com
Like most of you, when I heard that the Athletics Department was offering $500 to the student who created next year's football Gameday T-shirt, I
jumped at the opportunity.
The only problem was that the slogan, "Where will you be on Gameday?" was much too restrictive.
So I came up with new slogans. Better slogans. Slogans that students could be proud to wear on a T-shirt.
Initially I planned on keeping these to myself until I accepted the giant $500 novelty check sometime in Mav.
However, as a writer for The Uni
versity Daily Kansan, I decided this was an excellent opportunity to share my artwork with the student body. That, and I have to write three stories per week.
So enjoy, and visit kuathletics.com for full details on the contest if you think you can do better.
And I'll see you on gameday.

EDITOR'S NOTE
Driving in my car, I am Kelly Clarkson. I also can bust out some Celine Dion ("It's All
Coming Back to Me" = awesome). In my car I am an unashamed crooner. I try my best to imitate these artists but I often fall short. On rare occasions, I will venture to a karaoke
venue and try my hand at a live performance. I remember one particular rendition of Frank Sinatra's "New York, New York" that involved elaborate leg
kicks that were so impressive,
they landed me on my friend's
Web site with a caption that
read:"No one can see you make an ass out of yourself at Duffy's." So I am in awe of the tribute bands mentioned in Kristen Maxwell's story (p.10). They all have real guts and can all
perform in ways I only dream of. I know Frank Sinatra, Kelly Clarkson and, yes, even Celine would be unimpressed by my sad attempts to honor them
and their music. Luckily, I have the good sense to only allow a chosen few to see this side of me.
An article in first Thursday's supply meet connection. The article, "The thin web line," should have said that Darry had two Web sites, the second of which was finding My Whigs. She quit operating the first, in the same article. Darry landed in the hospital from an unspecified drug overdose, not because of the use of antihistamines.
Unless, that is, Stella Artois is involved.

Pranks gone wild
Is your life lacking mischief? Play a prank to enliven things.
Last January,Re Scott got a phone call from a number he didn't recognize.When he answered,a woman he didn't know said something about being an operator for a replay program. The Topeka junior was confused.
Then she asked a question: Who would win in a fight: Johnny Lawrence, the leader of Cobra Kai and the teen enemies of Daniel LaRusso in *Karate Kid*, or Biff Tannen, the guy who bullies around Marty McFly in the *Back to the Future*
series? Scott started laughing. He knew he'd been pranked.
Along with cheap beer, bad pick-up lines and late-night pizza, pranks are a hallmark of college night life. They range from harmless phone calls to elaborate stunts. And whether they're offensive charades or innocent fun, pranks let us vent our inner mischief.
Scott's friend pranked him using a free online calling program called IP-Relay, which allows
Prank etiquette dictates that nobody sustains physical harm or injury, Blumenfeld says. "Markers are temporary, and eyebrows have about a three-month grow-back period." he says.
ARTFUL SHAMING
Here are some of the most prevalent images drawn on people during a shaming:
But how much compassion can someone expect from jokers? Not much, Blumenfeld says. "We used to think there were boundaries and regional rules, like you are safe if you're in your bed. But
there are no rules. Even in our own beds nothing is sacred."
→A Charlie Chaplin
For Scott, the prank call recipient, the only rules for pranking are that you don't intend to hurt someone and that if you're going to dish it out, you should be prepared to get it back. "Keying someone's car is just mean," he says. "A prank is something you can do to bust your friends without being hateful."
The elements of a good prank, Scott says,
involve humor, creativity and surprise. The
deaf people to place telephone calls over the Internet by typing to an anonymous relay operator, who then makes the call. Calls placed with the program come from an unknown number, which allows pranksters to avoid caller-IDs. While clever, the prank has a flip side. Due to pranks through IP-Relay, deaf people who use the service are experiencing a higher rate of hang-ups by people who assume they're receiving a prank call.
Prank calls aren't the most popular of college hijinks, says Amir Blumenfeld, a senior writer for the Web site CollegeHumor.com, which receives hundreds of photo and video submissions from college students each week.The number one prank in college today, he says, is shaming — using a marker to draw on someone who is passed out. In second place is the dorm door obstruction prank, which involves blocking someone's door with anything from liquid-filled cups to phone books. Third is the surprise wake-up prank. Blumenfeld says he has seen this prank range from waking someone with a megaphone to filling an entire room with loud disco music, strobe lights and erratic dancers.

A Frankenstein scar
more original, the better. V.Vale, author of the book Pranks, agrees — to some extent.
Vale takes a philosophical approach to pranks. For him, pranks don't involve victimizing other people. Instead, they are harmless ways to point out irony and problems in society. They need to be humorous, convey an anti-authoritarian message and involve a poetic image. He says the best prank he recently saw involved a billboard mocking
Abercrombie and Fitch advertisements. "We're more in favor of pranks that perpetuate some sort of surrealist image or subvert authority," he says.
Vale traces the origin of pranks to the legend of the trickster archetype that is present in many early cultures. He says the trickster functioned to give people a wake-up call whenever they were just floating through life. Today, modern tricksters serve the same purpose."It's in our nature," Vale says. "Many pranks are crimes of opportunity."
Indeed, sometimes there is a thin line between a prank and a crime. There is no legal definition for pranks, but firecrackers in a dorm could be construed as arson, egging a house could be criminal damage to property, and shaming (depending on intent and how physical it is) could be construed as battery, says Sally Kelsey, a general practice attorney for the Law Offices of Donald G. Stroble, 16 E. $13^{\text{th}}$ St. but most pranks are intended to annoy rather than inflict harm, she says. Kelsey says she has only seen a few cases tried that involved pranks gone awry.
John Frydman, a Lawrence criminal attorney, says police usually know when something is intended to be a prank. "This is a college town. They'll understand the fine line," he says.
But remember, just because a line exists doesn't mean your prankster friends won't cross it. "Pranks are funny until somebody gets hurt," says Blumenfeld, the College Humor writer."Then they get really fun."
The image shows a person lying on their back in a bedroom, with their head resting on a pillow. The individual appears to be relaxed and is facing the camera. In the background, there are several framed pictures or posters displayed on the wall. The room is dimly lit, creating a cozy atmosphere.
THE GREATEST COLLEGE PRANK OF ALL TIME THE GREAT ROSE BOWL HOAX OF 1961
Although college students have pulled innumerable pranks, general consensus among prank Web sites and books maintains that the Rose Bowl hoax of 1961 is the best college prank ever accomplished. On January 2, 1961, NBC televised the Rose Bowl football game between the Minnesota Golden Gophers and the Washington Huskies. At halftime, Washington's cheerleaders prepared to lead Washington fans through a huge flip-card show that would produce giant images. Each fan had been given a large card and a personalized instruction sheet.
When the cheerleaders gave the signal, the fans were supposed to flip their cards according to the instruction sheets. As cameras televised the halftime show across the nation, the cheerleaders began to signal the audience.The first few images went according to plan, but then the word SEIKSUH appeared
HUSKIES spelled backwards. Assuming this was just an incidental flaw, the cheerleaders gave the next signal. But instead of a giant image of Washington's mascot — the husky — a giant buck-toothed animal appeared. The cheerleaders quickly signaled for the next image.
As the crowd flipped the cards, everyone grew silent.The cards above Washington's fans read: CALTECH. Fourteen students from the Pasadena technical college had managed to infiltrate the Washington cheerleaders' hotel room and replace all the instruction cards the night before the game. Variants of this prank have been accomplished since 1961, but it was the Rose Bowl hoax that set the stage for all elaborate college pranks to come.

With Derek Fudesco of Pretty Girls Make Graves
P
retty Girls Make Graves's third album, *Elan Vital*, is one of their most exciting to date. Bassist Derek Fudceso talked with me about the band's new album and
their upcoming tour. The band is bringing an explosive live show to the Bottleneck May 1.
Q: How did you want Elan Vital to sound different from New Romance?
A: We didn't set out to make it different. We lost a member. In the past, all five of us would write songs together. When we went in to make this record, individual members brought in songs or we paired up to write. That's the biggest reason it sounds different. There were probably two or three collaborations on this album.
Q: How did the addition of Leona Marrs on keyboard and the loss of Nathan Thelen on guitar affect the group?
At it opened up a whole new world. Before, we were very guitar-dominated. With Leona we could open up a lot of new territory. Plus, she also plays melodica and accordion. The more we wrote, the more everyone began swapping instruments.
Q: What influences your music?
Q: What influences your music?
A: Everything. I get it from books, movies, friends and friends' bands. It's kind of a day-to-day thing. We all have very different influences and styles.
Q: What are you hoping Elan Vital will do for you?
A: I hope it will finally shake off the people who've been expecting us to make the first record over again. With every release, there are people hoping we'll make Good Health again.
Q: You sing a little during your show. Do you consider yourself a good musician?
A: No. I'm a funny singer. I'm just funny enough so that no one notices how bad I actually sing.
Q: How do you think the band has changed since the self titled EP?
As 'we' a lot more open to different things than we used to be. In the past we were really stubborn. Every person had to have their stamp on every song. Now we're open to letting someone else take the reigns. It's more about writing better songs, instead of ego.
Q: What bands would you like to tour with?
A: TV On The Radio. They're one of my favorite bands right now. Flaming Lips would be cool, too. I'd love to tour with Fleetwood Mac. For my 31st birthday this year, when we were in Australia, Andrea (lead singer) took me to see Stevie Nicks. It was great.
Q: What words would you use to describe your live show?
At Our live show can go two ways. When it's on,
it can be pretty good. When it's off, it can be
a total train wreck. It's like 70/30. Even when
it's a train wreck, it can be pretty entertaining.
Lawrence is a cool town, though. We like
Lawrence.

Lifting misconceptions
GREG GRIESENAUER
Pump up your health by pumping iron.
Arnold Schwarzenegger has played many roles, starring in more than 35 films and snagging the title of California's 38th governor in 2003. He's come a long way from his Mr. Universe title, but even his transformation from Terminator to "Govenator" couldn't end his enduring role as the butt of body-building jokes.
Media and the general public have treated fans of bodybuilding — the process of building muscle through lifting weights, increasing caloric intake and rest — as punchlines. Weightlifters have been associated with steroid use, sub-par intelligence and obsessive exercising. But dedication can be misread as obsession. Withstanding jests and queries about their time logged at the gym, weightlifters rise
above to show the benefits of pumping iron daily.
Every morning at 6, Johnathan Miller, Lee's Summit, Mo., sophomore, is at the Student Recreation and Fitness Center. Besides regularly playing racquetball and climbing the rock wall, Miller lifts five times a week. Changing his lifting routine weekly, Miller puts in between an hour to two hours a day at the gym.
His roommates joke that he's an exercise addict, but Miller says he maintains a healthy balance between the gym and the rest of his life. He's not a "freak" about working out, Miller says, even though he does take supplements.
He takes a creatine and energy supplement to enhance his training, he says. It's common for people to associate steroids with weight lifting,
though most lifters aren't even on a supplement, Miller says.
"It's just years and years of lifting." Miller says.
Another misconception surrounding weightlifters is the idea that their lives revolve around the gym. But Miller's workouts motivate him even outside the gym, he says. During his freshman year he didn't go to the gym or to most of his classes, Miller says. But when he started lifting weights regularly, he says, his attendance and performance in class improved.
As for being obsessed with exercise, actual exercise addiction or abuse is uncommon, says Lynn Millar, physical therapy professor at Andrews University in Michigan. The American College of Sports Medicine actually recommends daily moderate-to-
vigorous workout between 20 and 60 minutes for fitness, Millar says. Exercise only becomes harmful when a person over-trains, or over-uses a muscle.
Over-training occurs when a person damages a muscle by not allowing sufficient time to heal, says Robert Gregory, a KU biomechanics professor.
Over-exercising certain muscles can even lead to a decrease in strength. Lifting places a lot of stress on the lumbar vertebrae, and excessive pressure can actually weaken the spinal column. Gregory says, as well as increase the possibility for injuries.
Brent Pitts, Olathe freshman, realizes the potential danger of overworking muscles and therefore developed a routine to ensure healthy
training. Alternating days, Pitts trains arms and shoulders twice a week and chest and back three times.
Usually, Pitts spends no more than two hours at the gym, but last year while playing for the Minnesota Junior Hockey League in St. Louis, he put in four hours a day on average.
Pitts, now a member of the KU club hockey team, says teammates give him flak about his gym sessions, asking why he works out so much. It's just a habit and a hobby, he says, something that makes him feel good about himself and brings him enjoyment.
When looking at the benefits these lifters receive, it's difficult to see how body-builders got a bad rap. But it's clear to see that weight-lifting is nothing to scaffold.

EXTRA LONG NECKLACES
Add dimension while drawing attention by draping an extra long necklace around your collar. The length not only catches the eye, but also guides the eye from top to bottom, creating coordination."It really pulls an outfit together by adding layers," says Jessie Earlewine, Lawrence junior, who likes to pair her long neckwear with plain t-shirts.
The best way to get the layered effect is to double loop the necklace, having one loop end mid chest and the other slightly above the navel. Thin chains sprinkled with bright crystals or funky charms are best used for the double drape. For the classic one-wrap, chunkier or multiple chains look best.

WIDE AWAKE
A new surge of energy drinks allows you to stretch those 24 hours a little longer.
On top of an unfinished 10-page paper, a group project and three upcoming finals, you probably still need time for working out, going out, staying up and sleeping in. And even though you're ashamed of your American Idol addiction, it demands at least two hours of your attention each week.
It's no surprise that caffeine will put a perk in your step, but as our dependence on it builds, energy drinks that speed up the energizing process are growing in popularity. Here's a breakdown of what's out there to tempt your taste buds and test your longevity.
Ingredients
Many energy drinks, like Red
Bull, include taurine or other amino acids, which build protein and protect the body. Some other drinks contain herbal supplements, such as ginseng, a classic Chinese root, says Blanca Storlazzi, a wellness assistant at The Merc, 901 Iowa St. Storlazzi, who is the store's herb and tea buyer, recommends another root called hoodia, used by tribal bushmen for multiple-day hunts. "It suppresses your appetite but also gives you energy," she says.
And how much caffeine is in these cans of energy? Most energy drinks claim to hold approximately the same amount of caffeine — or guarana, a herb containing caffeine — as a cup of
coffee,or roughly 75 milligrams.
B-group vitamins can be found in most energy drinks. They affect your mental well-being and work indirectly with your immune system. B-group vitamins, such as B-6, B-12 and folate, help improve the speed of information processing and memory, says a 2000 study by CSIRO, an Australian scientific research agency. Storlazzi recommends B-group vitamins as a strong first choice when you're dragging. "Your body doesn't produce these vitamins and minerals naturally," she says. "They come from our food, that's why you're supposed to eat well."
Risks
The Mayo Clinic reports that caffeine increases blood pressure, insomnia and irritability. Don't use these energy drinks before an activity that will naturally raise your blood pressure, such as strenuous exercise.
The natural alternative to relying on energy drinks is to get regular exercise and sleep, while maintaining a healthy diet. However, if you're reaching for an energy booster at 2 a.m. on Sunday night, it may be too late to consider sleep an option. Here's a guide to the tastes of some energy drinks. All are available at most grocery stores and gas stations.

Price: $1.49
ONE ADDICT'S STORY
"I was probably the only middle school kid who had coffee with her frosted flakes in the morning," says Melissa Baranek, Overland Park sophomore, who got hooked on her mom's black coffee when she was 11. Since then she's become a bona fide caffeine addict, a Dr. Pepper lover and drinker of double espresso shots. And while her friends think she's crazy, Baranek can't get through the morning without her drug of choice. After one attempt at quitting, she found that caffeine withdrawal gave her migraines and achy muscles." I tried to give up caffeine as a senior in high school for Lent," she says." I didn't last. I started on Ash Wednesday, and by that Friday I was getting a Dr. Pepper out of a vending machine.
ALTERNATIVES
Are you bored with a classic cup of joe and turned off by energy drinks? Fret not, because the caffeine market is expanding daily. Most students know they can grab NoDoz or other energy aids at most drugstores to help them finish a late-night paper. But have you tried energy powders? The energy boosters can be dissolved to digest in a variety of ways."You can put them in tea, sprinkle them on food, any way you want to take it,"says Vanessa Royer, a grocery buyer for The Merc. On a sweeter note, there are now candies, mints and gum infused with caffeine.Check out ThinkGeek.com for special caffeine products like Jolt Gum, Buzz Bites Chocolate Chews or Foosh Energy Mints.

A look into the world of tribute bands
Dave Damm doesn't look like Neil Diamond. His chin-length black hair and lineman build hardly suggest he could impersonate the singer of a romantic melody like "Hello Again," but that's just what he does.
But of all the performers and bands out there, why Neil? The answer is simple: the Wichita senior loves Neil Diamond. And it shows in an interview as
much as in performance.
Upon calling Damm for an interview, I got his voice mail. Ten seconds later he called back.
"Sorry, Kristen," he says, sounding out of breath. "I had Neil cranked up on my headphones and was practicing some moves in the mirror."
Damm remembers seventh grade, when his mom came home with a Neil Diamond cassette. He couldn't stop listening to It. That year he also saw the marvel in concert for the first time. Ten years later, Damm celebrates his
love and admiration for the performer and his music with his very own Neil Diamond tribute band, Dave Diamond.
Kevin Brown loves and admires another successful band: Boston. The Kansas City, Mo., junior is a typical college student. He's a business major, member of Sigma Chi fraternity and he plays the guitar. Brown has been a part of many original bands, but says nothing is like his tribute, More Than a Feeling, named after one of Boston's greatest hits.
He got involved in the band six months ago when his friend and bandmate, Matt Vianello, came to him with the idea.
"After laughing at him for a few minutes, I

'It's fun because it's not very stressful. It's like a novelty.' Brown says.

A bit of history
10> JAYPLAY 04.27.2006
Although music critics claim that tribute bands are a new American phenomenon, tribute bands have been showing up around the globe, especially in the United Kingdom, ever since the time of Elvis and The Beatles.
"They (tribute bands) may be more popular or well-known now in the Midwest, but they've been around for years," says Frank J. Moyer, president of AME Entertainment.
Moyer signed his first tribute band 15 years ago
when Jimmie Van Zant, first cousin of Lynyrd Skynyrd lead singer Ronnie Van Zant, was bringing a tribute dedicated to his cousin's band to Lawrence. Moyer says he recalls watching them and thinking this was a name he could sell, market and do well with. He quickly began representing the bard. To date, Moyer and the band have put out tribute albums as well as three albums of original work.
Brown says he wouldn't be surprised if the popularity of tribute bands has increased in recent years.
"The quality of popular music has been going downhill in recent years. Someone needs to bring back the good bands," he says.

McDonagh has released several albums, including "The Grey Lily" and "A Woman's World." She is also an accomplished singer and pianist, and she has performed at numerous festivals throughout the world.
Dave Damm stars in a Neil Diamond tribute band. He says he "makes the crowd go wild"with cheesy remarks and poses.
DREAMS DO COME TRUE
Most groups' initial draw to impersonating a band is a love for the original. For some, just singing the songs is enough. For others, every note has to be perfect. Tim Owens, 29, is one of the perfectionists. An office supply traveling salesmen by day and Rob Halford impersonator in a Judas Priest tribute band by night. Owens is proof that the ultimate dream of a tribute band member can come true.
In 1993, the real Judas Priest decided to re-form and record another album, but their lead singer — the real Rob Halford — had left the band. This left them needing a new lead singer. A tape of one of Owens' performances was sent to the band by two Judas Priest fans and after a live audition, in which Owens sang only nine words of "Victim of Changes," he was offered the job. Before joining the band in London, Owens returned to his hometown of Akron, Ohio, where he signed his first autograph. The lucky recipients were his parents. It was a picture of him and the band and it read, "Mom and Dad, dreams do come true. I love you."
Owens, now known as Ripper Owens, recorded *Jugulator*, the band's first album of new material in seven years in 1997. He recorded one more studio album, two live albums and a DVD in 2002, before leaving the band to make way for their reunion with Halford. Owens soon became lead singer for another band, Iced Earth, and released an album with them in early 2004.
Matt Vianello thought of the idea to create a Boston tribute.

Whether they've been popular for decades or a few years, these imitations have grown so much in popularity that some tribute bands have established their own fan base, adding to the pre-existing fans from the original band.
Sometimes tributes can be seen as a "cop-out," Damm says, because they capitalize on someone else's work. But he and Brown agree that
it's easier to establish
a tribute band than an original one.
"Let's face it," Damm says, as if shrugging off the critics."People like to sing along and know the music of the performer."
Not all tribute acts are as dedicated as Damm and Brown,yet some are even more so. They vary from act to act. Some are small and informal

As tributes become more popular, newer singers are starting to inspire some acts. According to a tribute band catalog Web site, tributecity.com, singers such as Beyonce Knowles, Creed and Britney Spears are starting to have tributes established after their
"People want to relive concerts and the time of their life when they saw these bands," Economy says."And that seems to be just what they are doing."
Why bother?
... An Incredible Simulation follows and explains the world of tribute bands and takes a look into the mystery of these music enthusiasts, Economy says.
"We wanted to answer, 'Why do they bother?' Economy says.
"Because it's fun," Damm says, as if it should be obvious.
But Moyer says tribute bands can make a decent amount of money, too. Putting it in perspective, Moyer says original bands make about $50 a gig, while cover bands make between $300 and $400 a performance. Tributes are even more successful, bringing in as much as $1,500 or more per show.
"Whatever we make, it ends up being about $50 to $100 per person," Brown says.

This is a typical payment for a start-up tribute, Moyer says, but he insists band members can make a living doing a tribute. He has a few that actually do.
"We're booking them all the time and they are going places like Trinidad to perform."Moyer says.
So, besides the fun and the money. Moyer says, people get into and stay with tribute acts because of the recognition.
“There’s no fame or glory in cover bands,” says Moyer. “But in tributes, they treat you like the real deal.”

A FAST FIX
BITE
When it comes to food, sometimes less really is more.
by Erin Wisdom
VI
When Ryan Pierce went on a juice fast, he was looking for a quick remedy. The former KU student says he'd spent too long destroying his body and needed a way to rebuild it. He smoked cigarettes, drank several times a week and never paid much attention to his diet. He wanted to detoxify his system and, as a full-time student with a part-time job, he needed a method that didn't require a lot of time.
Nine days on nothing but water and all-natural juice did the job.Pierce had to remain as inactive as possible to conserve energy, he says, but during the fast he began to feel better. He could breathe more easily and, in general, he just felt healthier cleaner.
Although weight loss wasn't Pierce's purpose for fasting, he did lose 10 pounds in the nine days he didn't eat. The weight loss didn't stick — he gained back the pounds soon after returning to solid food. What did stay with Pierce after his fast, though, was a sense of how to better care for himself. Now, almost two years after his nine-day detox, he has quit smoking and eats healthier than he did before.
Both the physical and spiritual benefits of fasting have long been recognized. Despite these advantages, fasting requires caution and isn't for everyone.
Fasting cleanses the body by increasing the processes that release toxins from the colon, kidneys, bladder, lungs, sinuses and skin, says Elison Haas, author of Staying Healthy with Nutrition: The Complete Guide to Diet and Nutritional Medicine. Fasting also allows many of the body's systems a chance to rest. Haas believes that much disease is due to "biochemical suffocation," which occurs when cells don't adequately eliminate their wastes. Fasting, he says, allows each cell the opportunity to catch up on its work of eliminating these toxins.
"Fasting is like turning off and cleaning a complex and valuable machine so that it will function better and longer," he says.
True fasting is the avoidance of all food and drink, and the next-strictest form allows only water. The most common fast, however, allows both water and juice. Haas usually recommends this juice fast rather than other
kinds, he says, because it's safer and easier to maintain. Juice provides calories and nutrients, which support the body nutritionally and enable it to recover more quickly after the fast.
A person should work up to longer fasts by first going on ones that last only one or two days, Haas says. It is also important, he says, to come off of solid foods gradually in the days before the fast and to reintroduce them into the diet equally slowly in the days that follow it. In order for the fast to cleanse the body as much as possible, it's vital that the juices be free of preservatives.
Preservatives may not be as much of an issue, though, if a person is fasting for spiritual purposes. Elmer Towns, author of Fasting for Spiritual Breakthrough, doesn't mind drinking juice with preservatives when he fasts.
"I don't get upset about additives because I believe God looks at the heart," he says. "He doesn't look at what goes into the mouth."
Spiritual fasts should always be accompanied by prayer, Towns says. The purpose of going without food is not to impress God, he says, but rather to take prayer to a higher level and to demonstrate sincerity.
Like Towns, Chris Carter fasts for spiritual reasons.The Kansas City, Kan., junior says he has fasted during difficult times as a way of calling on God for help. At other times, he's done it as a reminder to himself of the people in the world who experience hunger on a regular basis.
Spiritual fasts can have physical benefits, as well, even if those benefits are not their main purpose. Towns says that when he had a check-up during a 40-day fast, the doctor told him he was in better health than anyone he'd ever seen. Fasting for such a long time made him weak, Towns says, but also healthier.
Most of his fasts are only a day long, Carter says, and he usually drinks only water during them. He says these one-day fasts aren't too difficult, and that most of the time they leave him feeling cleaner inside. The four-to-six-day fasts he's done made him feel weak and sleepy, but not necessarily hungry. Carter says during some of his longer fasts — especially those in which he's gone without
both food and water — one of the most distinctive things he's felt has been the sensation of his blood thinning.
Haas warns that not everyone is a good candidate for long fasts. If fasting is overused, it can lead to nutritional deficits and lowered immunity rather than having a positive, cleansing effect. He adds that some people, including those who are underweight, pregnant or who have serious health problems,
"It feels kind of like your foot falling asleep," he says.
should not fast at all.
Haas emphasizes, however, that if a person meets the physical requirements and takes the proper precautions, abstaining from food can be incredibly healthy.
"From a medical point of view, I believe that fasting is not utilized often enough," he says. "We go on vacations from work to relax, recharge and to gain new perspectives on our life — why not take occasional breaks from food?"

Elan Vital
MUSIC
by Pretty Girls Make Graves
Elan Vital is one of Seattle-based Pretty Girls Make Graves' most exciting albums to date. PGMG dabbles in a variety of styles and continues to evolve their huge sound. While bands, like Nickelback, are content with releasing the same album over and over again, the members of PGMG don't repeat themselves.
Ice Cream
A lot of this is thanks to the addition of keyboardist Leona Marrs, who also plays melodica and accordion. Take "Pyrite Pedestal," one of the most upbeat tracks on the album or the insanely catchy "The Number" — both feature great memorable keyboard leads."Pearls On A Plate" features heavy strings and a dreamy feel, a total surprise to any PGMG fan.
Vocalist Andrea Zollo says it best on "Pyrite Pedestal": The real tragedy is that your act is just boring and old, further showing PGMG's desire to never repeat themselves. And that's one of the things that make Elan Vital a very exciting album.
FRIENDS WITH MONEY
MOVIE
★★★
The perceptive and funny Friends With Money thoughtfully examines the relationships and friendships of four thirty-something friends in Los Angeles. The film depicts three wealthy women, played by Catherine Keener, Joan Cusack and Francis McDormand, all of whom are married, and their single, blue-collar friend, Jennifer Aniston. The financial divide is apparent in the opening scenes of the film, which shows Aniston's character cleaning a house for her job as a maid, while the other three women are remodeling houses and chatting about fundraisers. Because there is no plot to this film, one would think it is not engaging enough to sustain anyone's attention.
Chris Brower
Surprisingly, though, the film is interesting, as it drifts through marriage troubles, aging and financial woes with a fresh wit and believable characters.
The film's version of a plot consists of all the characters gossiping about each other. Aniston, who is the most
recognizable, is mediocre in a role that any thirty-something actress could handle.
PETER A. BETTLEY
The best aspects of the movie belong to her three friends, who give it a realistic poignancy with their revelations and disappointments. Catherine Keener shines as the wife of an insensitive man, and Joan Cusack provides the comedy effortlessly. In a challenging and often changing character, Francis McDormand has the most material to work with, which she realistically and capably handles.
One of the main problems with the film is that the friendship between Aniston's character and her diverse friends is very hard to buy. The three wealthy women gossip and say they are concerned about Aniston's character and aren't overly friendly to her when they are around one another.
In the end, Friends With Money quietly impresses with its bold and truthful script and layered performances. This film proves, through the tumultuous lives of these women, that money doesn't solve everything.

American Dreamz
MOVIE
AIRWAYS
Satire, when done well, can inspire. And satire of a political nature can instigate change. But political satire with no cleverness or hint of originality can cause a desire to bang one's head against a hard surface, and that is what it feels like to watch American Dreamz.
A self-confessed and unashamed Mandy Moore fan, I am concerned if this is the type of film she will be gravitating toward in the future. But Moore, as a wannabe star participating on an American Idol-like show, is only part of the problem. She is aided by Hugh Grant, who usually has enough charm to make even films like Two Weeks Notice watch-able, but, in American Dreamz, tries to emulate Simon Cowell, a daunting task in itself. Mostly, Grant just annoys everyone, which Simon does, but with a little more polite. I just wanted him off the screen as soon as possible and I normally would never wish that of
Grant. Then there's Dennis Quaid, doing his best George Bush impression, which is possibly the worst George Bush impression ever caught on film/video, complete with southern drawl and idiotic meanderings.
plotting to smuggle a bomb into the final show to kill the president.
The plot, as contrived as this may seem, is concerned with the President who, in order to win popular appeal, appears as a guest judge on the uber-popular show, American Dreamz, hosted by Grant. Moore is a Southern belle willing to do anything to win. Meanwhile Omar (Sam Golizari), has been chosen as a token Arab contestant but he is secretly
The sheer amount of stupidity astounds. I was hoping that they were making the characters deliberately ridiculous in order to make a point but no point ever came. If this is a correct reflection of the American people, a collective shudder should resound from coast to coast.

GAME
24: THE GAME
I hope that a person like Jack Bauer exists in the world, because I feel a lot safer knowing that he is out there fighting terrorism.
If you watch 24, then you already know the main premise of the game. It's up to you, as Jack Bauer and Co., to stop a terrorist plot in 24 hours. The game stresses this the same way the show does, by making every mission a race against the clock. This gives a sense of urgency to the player, saying: you must do this or the terrorists will win.
This game isn't about going into the field and shooting everything that walks. It incorporates many aspects of the TV show. The player has to defuse bombs, break into secure places, sneak around and, yes... shoot people. The game uses other aspects of Counter Terrorism Unit practices in the form of mini-games. This is another
innovation to encompass all the aspects of the series. The mini-games are mostly of the press-the-correct button-at-the-right-time variety.
A downside of the game is its use of split screens. Sure, it's a neat part of the show, but it's not necessary, especially during the middle of gameplay. The quick switch of camera angels and new shots of the area are annoying.
Also, the driving aspect of the game is terrible. Most of the driving has to do with getting away from enemies. However, the big problem is an inability to successfully get away. You're better off just trying to kill them and get to your destination in time.
The voice acting is a definite plus for the game. The actors from the series lend their voices for their digital selves.I don't think I could fully respect a Jack
Bauer character if I didn't hear Kleifer Sutherland say: "Damn it!' a few times.
24: The Game makes it possible for players to experience Jack Bauer's job. The game doesn't leave out any aspect of the show.

How to cope when your partner suffers from depression
by Rachel Zupek
Eight months into her relationship with an ex-boyfriend, Stacey, Memphis senior, told him that she thought it was time to take a break. Soon after, he attempted suicide by overdosing on pills. That's when she knew he had a problem.
Each year, depression affects an estimated 19 million Americans (not to mention their partners), according to the National Mental Health Association.Maintaining a relationship with a depressed individual can be frustrating and draining. The good news is, depression is treatable, and by taking the right steps, your relationship can survive.
Educating yourself about depression is the first step in a relationship with someone who's depressed, says Debbie Goldberg, a Lawrence licensed psychologist. "Clinical depression isn't just when you get the blues and the next day you feel better," she says. "It's a mental illness that debilitates some people, so it's important to know what depression actually is."
what degree she had.
Stacey says that once her ex admitted to her that he was depressed, she ran the occasional Google search, but she learned most from what her boyfriend taught her firsthand.Talking about it and knowing more about
what he was going through helped about themselves. tremendously, she wrote.
Addressing the problem with your loved one can be hard, but once it's out in the open, seeking treatment is the next step to recovery, Goldberg says. If there's an extreme chemical imbalance, the best combination is therapy and medication, because it can help someone get better, she says.
Even though it may be difficult, support is the best way to help a depressed loved one, says Christine Webber, psychotherapist in the United
Kingdom and author of Get the Happiness Habit. When depressed people are in good relationships, she says, the positive feelings from the relationship can help them feel better
DEPRESSION STATISTICS
18. 8 million American adults suffer from clinical depression.That is 9.5 percent of the adult population.
>35 million Americans (more than 16 percent of the population) suffer from depression severe enough to warrant treatment at some time in their lives.
Women are almost twice as likely as men to fall prey to the disease, while men are far less likely to look for help.
Source: National Institute of Mental Health
Stacey says that small things, like just letting her boyfriend talk and assuring him that she was there if he needed her, helped their relationship.
While supporting your depressed partner is important, Goldberg says, the healthy individual should realize that modeling "non depressed" behavior is a good thing. Doing something you enjoy can have
a positive influence on the depressed individual, she says.
Stacey says that even though she wanted to help her boyfriend, she felt guilty when she did things she
enjoyed. "Sometimes I'd lie about what I was doing because I didn't want him to get mad or upset at me," she says. "It was like I was walking on pins and needles."
While Stacey's reactions were natural, Goldberg says, healthy people need to respect that there's going to be times when the depressed individual just won't want to do anything. "Have the ability to do things independently and don't assume that they don't want to spend time with you, but that the person wants alone time," she says.
It's difficult to stay calm and confident when your loved one is so unhappy, but any partner of a depressed individual should realize it's normal to be upset by this situation, Webber says. "Even if you're at your wits' end because your loved one has lost the ability to raise a smile, or to appreciate any of the good moments in life, try to accept that all these things are simply a part of this awful illness," she says.

Did you know...?
Christine Webber, author of Get the Happiness Habit, offers advice on how partners of depressed people can help themselves and their relationship:
→Don't keep saying you know what your partner is going through — you don't.
→Don't despair.
Encourage your partner to get all the professional help available.
Remember: it's exactly as if your partner was recovering from a serious physical illness or from surgery. Give plenty of tender love and care and don't expect improvement to be rapid.
Spend time every day doing nice things for yourself.
Remember that this period of your life will pass, and that your partner is the same person underneath as he or she was before.

SOME TIME AGO I MADE OUT WITH A SAME-SEX FRIEND OF MINE. WE WERE PRETTY WASTED. I KNOW WE ARE BOTH HETEROSEXUAL, BUT BOTH OF US ENJOYED IT. DO YOU THINK IT MAKES US BISEXUAL? GUZMAN, SOPHOMORE
Jessica: Think of all the girls you know that make out with other girls while drunk. Do you think they're bisexual? More than likely, they're either experimenting or doing it for the attention of rowdy, drunken males. Either way, I'm guessing most of them aren't bisexual. If you enjoyed it, however, it's a possibility. Talk to him about it and see how he feels. I don't think a single act with someone of the same sex is cause for a label of sexual orientation, but think about what you're attracted to the majority of the time . . women? Men? Just ask yourself these questions, and I'm sure it will become clearer to you.
**Brian:** If it walks like a duck and sounds like a duck, it's probably a duck. You're bisexual.
Being at college is a great time to try new things and express yourself. Test it out with your friend or another guy to decide how much you really like men. If it's just a phase, it'll just have been a "college thing." If you really like it, you'll be able warn all your future girlfriends. Being shy about it can make your life a living hell later on. Imagine the backlash if you're married for 15 years and never fully expressed your bisexuality. Imagine your wife coming home to find you in bed with your 24-year-old male secretary. Remember: hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.
IS IT TRUE THAT YOU CAN'T GET PREGNANT IN A SWIMMING POOL? -CLAIRE FRESHMAN
Jessica: That depends on a number of factors. If you're having unprotected sex in any kind of water (ocean, bathtub, pool, Jacuzzi), you can definitely get pregnant. However, if there is merely semen in the water in which you're swimming, then you most likely will not get pregnant. Chlorine, the amount of water and the cold temperature of pools prevent sperm from living very long.The same rules of dry land sex apply to underwater sex. Unprotected sex or even sex with a faulty condom can get you pregnant if no alternate methods of birth control are used.
Brian: it's definitely true you can't get pregnant in a swimming pool. Sperm are actually afraid of water, and when a man has sex in water, he actually doesn't ejaculate. Unless you're swimming in a pool filled with sperm. If that's the case, I recommend you call a sperm bank and tell them you've hit the jackpot. Then sell it to them and you'll never have to work another day in your life. Yes, you moron, you can get pregnant. It's a line probably invented by a guy so that some girl would have sex with him in a pool. She believed him, told all her friends and now you're keeping that man's brilliant brainstorm going. So, on behalf of every guy who's scored pool sex, thanks, Claire.
WITH THE MUMPS APPARENTLY TAKING OVER KANSAS, I'VE HEARD MEN CAN GO STERILE FROM THE DISEASE. IS THIS TRUE? 'CAUSE THAT'D BE AWESOME! — CLINT, FRESHMAN
baby I had my vas deferens cut so now I'm sterile Wanna have some amazing no pregnancy risk unprotected
**assica:** Yes, that's true. Have it, ladies. That is, of course if you want the mumps, too.

Coping with the pains of dessert addiction by Charissa Young
To avoid seeing the syringe and pointy metal objects coming at my face, I painstakingly try to fixate on a ceiling poster of furry puppies scampering in a hazy spring meadow. WhrrrWhrrrWhrrr. Eurekal it's a cavity — lucky cavity number 21. The dentist wipes off the enamel residue accumulating on his spectacles, shakes out his wrists and drills further.
"Charisa, are you brushing regularly?" he asks with a raised eyebrow. I slightly nod my head, trying not to disrupt the excavation party going on in my mouth. I think back to the half-dozen chocolate chip cookies I ate the day before, to the pineapple cake I ate for breakfast all last week, to the countless Sylas and Maddy's ice cream outings and mini Snicker bars, and I wonder if it's all been worth it.
For a long time I was in denial about my addiction. I remember when I was just tall enough to climb onto the kitchen counter to steal extra helpings of Oreo cookies from the cookie jar. I also remember my transparent denial when my parents confronted me about the stuffing-less chocolate shells left behind. I'd stash bags of candy from a
recent shopping spree behind books and in my dresser drawers.I hid my hankering for sweets because my parents emphasized self-discipline,and I was eager to please,plie-ing all over the studio in ballet class, tripping over my own feet playing soccer and eating in moderation at their urging.
The school lunches my mom made for me in grade school were the worst. Not only did I have to go an entire day dessertless, but my lunch also lacked popular appeal. Against school rules, students would smuggle in junk food, reinforcing their godliness among deprived sweet fiends like myself. To my awe, they quietly, yet proudly, displayed their contraband of tooth-rotting cans of Dr. Pepper and candy bars alongside their creamy peanut butter-and-jelly crustless white bread sandwiches. I frowned as I tried to quietly unveil my thermal lunch sack for my sensible meal of bologna on wheat bread, crusts intact, washed down with a mysteriously flavored Capri Sun, rounded out with an apple or occasional pudding cup for the finale. Dessert, my ass.
I found release in openly feeding
my sugar appetite when I visited my California Grandma. When I'd hear Pavlov's bell ringing on a distant ice cream cart rolling across the boardwalk, my grandma would urge me with a $5 bill to buy gift-centered drumsticks. Extremely shy, I rarely approached strangers, but I was not one to miss out on an opportunity for dessert. For my grandma, ice cream was practical relief from the sweltering heat. I was as giddy as a kid on Christmas morning as I tore away the ice cream wrapper and bit into the chocolate shell, careful not to drop a morsel.
It's not as if my parents forbade me to eat sweets (I was a twiggy thing and could have used the extra calories), but their constant harping on moderation and sensibility led me to feel guilty about my addiction. As a young adult, I began to taste my sense of independence — independence from my role as the abiding daughter, represented by me no longer restricting my diet. When I moved to Kansas for high school, I became known to my friends as "Sweet Cheeks," thanks to my penchant for sweets as I hoovered
up their birthday cakes each April. I no longer felt the need to hide my addiction.
Now, out of my parents' house and their supervision, I eat enough sugar-laden products to induce an insulin coma. I make it a point to eat dessert with each meal, sometimes replacing it as a meal altogether, and it serves as an indulgence, a simple pleasure, in my life of moderation.
I admit that the pendulum of my addiction has swung into an extreme overconsumption of desserts, with my poor parents footing my dentist bills. I don't know if my parents know the extent of my addiction, but I assume that they recognize that my frequent dentist visits are not the norm. I may have not grown up to be the graceful balerina or goal-scoring Mia Hamm that they had hoped I would be, but I am indebted to them for their unwavering support throughout my life, from the failures to the toothaches. I am a sugarholic and proud of it, even if it means another drill session — the pain has never been so sweetly worth it.

Opera to close theatre season
BY DEJUAN ATWAY

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
The opera will debut at 7:30 at the Crafton-Preyer Theatre in Murphy Hall. The show is schedule to run through May 6.
This spring semester has featured performances from the School of Fine Arts dedicated to honor the legacy of Mozart, and now the final curtain of the theatre season will rise tonight as "The Marriage of Figaro" premieres.
"The Marriage of Figaro" is a comedic opera that tells the story of the inhabitants in Count Almaviva's castle during 18th century Seville, Spain. The Count has decided to try to cheat on his wife with his maid and is subsequently foiled in every pass that he makes at her. Other individuals in the castle, including Figaro, the count's valet, conspire to embarrass the count.
Lindsay Ohse, Topeka graduate student, plays the count's love interest and maid, Susanna. Ohse said the opera was a classic piece of pop culture with recognizable songs and unforgettable characters.
"For anybody who has never seen an opera this is the perfect opportunity to get their feet wet," she said. "Forget the stereotype of the fat lady singing while the audience snoozes. This opera is a comedy, it's in English and it's even got subtitles projected above the stage just in case you can't understand the singers."
Gina Galati, St. Louis graduate student who plays the Countess Rosina, said people should come see the play because the story is funny, the ending is entertaining and the music from Mozart is absolutely beautiful.
Ohse said she loves the adrenaline rush she gets from performing and it's an opportunity to share that excitement with the audience.
"It's a chance to escape from my own life and become a completely different character. I was one of those kids always off in my own little world, making up songs and imaginary friends," Ohse said. "And now as an adult I'm incredibly lucky to get to continue living in a fantasy world with imaginary people, if only for a few hours a day."

NCAA to discuss reveling
Fans' on-field antics may come to an end

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
KU football fans, and college football fans across the country may have their tradition of postgame goalpost charges restricted by the NCAA.
On April 14, the NCAA met in Savannah, Ga., to discuss this very problem, and possible resolutions. The council declared fans charging a field or court after games had gone too far. They used the example of Rick Rose, a University of Minnesota-Morris basketball player who was killed instantly when a torn-down goalpost fell on him following a football game.
Jennifer Kearns, NCAA spokeswoman, said the council would meet again June 23 in New Orleans to discuss recommendations for the NCAA.
From there, any recommendations that become legislation will be voted on in Jan. 2007. Kearns said the NCAA did not want to stop students from having fun, it was just trying to ensure safety.

AbleHawks gave students a small taste of life with a disability Thursday by experiencing what it is like to be blind. The group provided a blindfold and cane to willing participants.
AbleHawks, an organization aimed at helping students with disabilities, staged a demonstration to raise awareness about disabilities issues on campus and the everyday issues that affect students. From 10 a.m. until 2 p.m., the organization was staked out on Wesco Beach.
Ablehawks also had wheelchair demonstrations, which showed the inherent difficulties in trying to maneuver in a wheelchair.
"The acceptance level with our group is not the same as with other minority groups," said Zach Coble, Winfield sophomore and vice president of Able Hawks.

"I like the vegetables, I'm supporting Lawrence businesses," she said. "And when that means I get to buy soap, you know, I'm all for it."
This Saturday, Smarker will get to shop at the new farmers' market at Pachamama's parking lot, 824 New Hampshire St., with almost twice as much space than the location at 1020 Vermont St.
That location will still be open on Tuesday and Thursday evenings.
Mercedes Taylor-Puckett, coordinator for the market, said she was excited about the new location, despite challenges that came along with the long-awaited move.
She said the market had been looking to move for 10 years. Vendors looking for a stall in the market had to get on a waiting list that had grown to four or five years. Still the city was
---
The new market will be open from 7 to 11 a.m. Saturdays.The original location will be open from 4 to 6 p.m.on Tuesdays and Thursdays.Both lots will stay open for business until Nov. 11.
So a compromise was made letting the new location being used on Saturday and the old one during the week.
The new lot almost doubles the size of the market's old site, increasing the number of stall from 65 to 102. Taylor-Puckett said she wasn't worried about the separate locations. She thinks Lawrence has enough support for two market locations.
Jill Elmers is the Downtown Lawrence Farmer's Market treasurer, as well as a vendor. As treasurer, Elmers handles the market's different fees. Vendors must pay a $30 membership fee and varying stall fees.

ODD NEWS Alligator attacks man retrieving golf balls BOYNTON REACH, Fla.
A diver hired by the city to retrieve golf balls from a lake was attacked by a 9-foot alligator that bit the man's arm, authorities said.
Stephen Martinez, 43, of Cora Springs, Fla., was treated at a hospital for injuries similar to a dog bite, said Palm Beach County sheriff's Lt. Rolando Silva.
"it's serious, but certainly not life-threatening," he said
Martinez was under murky water at The Links golf course on Tuesday when a group of golfers heard him yell for help, said course manager Dan Hager.
The alligator apparently bit Martinez's air tank and tried to pull him under the water. Martinez grabbed a utility knife wrapped to his dive suit and tried to stab the animal. That's when it bit his arm, Hager said. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission was investigating.
The alligator was trapped and will have to be euthanized, commission spokeswoman Dani Moschella said.

CHESTERTON, Ind. — A trucking company is trying to get one of its drivers to answer a simple question: Where's the beef?
Frozen beef worth $500,000 is missing, and the driver who was hauling it isn't returning phone calls, according to Priority Refrigerated Service.
The driver failed to make a delivery at 1 a.m. Monday in Suffield, Conn., company officials told Chesterton police.
Officials called him and he told them he thought the meat was supposed to be delivered later that morning.
The 48-year-old trucker from Manchester, Conn., said he was en route, and the truck's Global Positioning System satellite showed he was 15 miles away. But the trucker never showed up, according to a company official.
The driver received 20 messages from the company within 24 hours but failed to return any of them, the official told police Tuesday.
After about 24 hours.

Connecticut State Police also were notified about the missing truck, valued at $80,000, and the cargo.

Wheeling police found a missing potbellied pig early Wednesday in the back seat of a car that had been reported stolen in Ohio.
The car's owner, who wasn't identified, had told the Belmont County (Ohio) Sheriff's Department that the pet pig was in the vehicle when it was stolen Tuesday afternoon from a restaurant parking lot in St. Clairsville, Ohio, according to a Wheeling Police Department report.
The Wheeling officers began following the car after they saw a man stagger to it at an intersection. They stopped the car after it allegedly swerved several times and hit curbs.

"I associate myself as a person with a disability, and we want people to feel more comfortable and not make assumptions about people with disabilities," he said.
Coble said he wanted people to know what people with disabilities go through every day. For example, there are not wheelchair door openers on all the doors in Wescoe Hall, and not all the buses on campus are accessible for people with disabilities, he said.
Derek Zarda, Shawnee junior and president of AbleHawks, said, "We don't want to build a sense of pity for people with disabilities, but we want to show people what it is like to walk in our shoes."
The group has been on campus for two years and is open to all KU students. AbleHawks plans to continue holding demonstrations at least once a semester to promote the message of dealing with people with disabilities as a multicultural issue. Zarda said.
"People don't fear people with disabilities, but they definitely shy away from us." Zarda said. "We want to get all people interested and open to deal with issues that affect us."

But because of the long waiting list, many vendors choose to pay a daily stall fee. Taylor-Puckett said the first year of being a vendor was about letting people see your face.
Both daily and seasonal stall holders provide varying produce for Lawrence shoppers. John and Karen Pendleton have their own country market off of K-10 Highway, but they are also vendors at Lawrence Farmers' Market. Karen said Lawrence's farmers market was different than most other Kansas markets.
"Lawrence Farmers' Market is a growers market. Anything you sell you have to grow yourself or raise on your farm," Pendleton said.
While growing their own produce might seem obvious, markets in Topeka, Leavenworth and Wichita don't require it.

In it, Domer gives her definition of a farmer. "I like to remember words spoken by Daniel Webster in 1840: 'When tillage begins, other arts follow. The farmers therefore are the founders of human civilization.' Taking Webster's point of view, one might say that farmers markets are helping strengthen the foundation of our civilization."

"They understand this goes on and it's a way for fans and students to show support, and they're excited," Kearns said. "They really want to make sure people don't get hurt."
Some of the recommendations include possible fines or penalties of schools that fail to keep fans in the stands.
Keeping those fans in the bleachers is a primary concern of both the NCAA and the University of Kansas.

If measures are passed by the NCAA to stop postgame charges onto the field, they would not go into effect until January or February of next year.

A bomb blasted an Italian convoy on a road in southern Iraq, killing four people and seriously injuring one more, the Defense Ministry said.
Three Italians Romanian die in Iraq blast
BY MARIA SANMINIATELLI
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ROME — A bomb blast rocked an Italian convoy on a road in southern Iraq on Thursday, killing four people — three Italian soldiers and one from Romania, the Defense Ministry said.
An officer with the Carabinier was seriously wounded and was taken to a U.S. hospital about 93 miles from Kuwait City, Defense Minister Antonio Martino said.
The roadside bomb targeted a four-vehicle convoy carrying 17 troops to relieve those at the local Iraqi police station in the city of Nasirivah.
Romano Prodi, who will head the next Italian government, said he had no plans to speed up Italy's withdrawal because of the bombing. Prodi had opposed the war and has pledged
to bring italian troops home by the end of the year.
"Our position is not changed." Prodi said at a news conference at his coalition's headquarters. "We've discussed it with the whole coalition."
Prodi's extreme left coalition allies seized on the news to criticize Premier Silvio Berlusconi's decision to send troops to Iraq and to demand a quicker withdrawal.
"Today's attack that caused the deaths of Italian soldiers is an additional loss that Berlusconi's wicked choice to stand by his friend Bush brings today to our country." Communist law-maker Marco Rizzo was quoted as saying by the Apcom news agency.
Prodi said Italy would stay the course in Iraq.
"We won't fly away," he said. "Of course we shall work in Iraq for peace."

BAGHDAD, Iraq — A sister of Iraq's new Sunni Arab vice president was killed Thursday in a drive-by shooting in Baghdad, a day after the politician called for the Sunni-dominated insurgency to be crushed by force.
In southern Iraq, a bomb hit an Italian military convoy, killing four soldiers — three Italians and a Romanian — and seriously injuring another passenger, officials in Rome said. The bomb struck the convoy near an Italian military base in Nasiriyah, a heavily Shiite city
200 miles southeast of Baghdad, said local Iraqi government spokesman Haidr Radhi.
Elsewhere, a U.S. jet fired two missiles at insurgent positions in Ramadi, U.S. officers said. Fighting also broke out northeast of Baghdad between Iraqi forces and insurgents.
The violence came as Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld were visiting Baghdad to meet with officials in the new Iraqi government.
Nouri al-Maliki, a Shiite hard-liner recently tapped as Iraq's prime minister, is trying to form a national unity government aimed at stopping a wave of sectarian violence.
Al-Maliki has 30 days to assemble a Cabinet from divided Shiite, Sunni and Kurdish parties. The most contentious question will be filling key ministries that control security forces amid demands to purge them of militias blamed for the rise in sectarian bloodshed.
Mayson Ahmed Bakir al-Hashimi, 60, whose brother, Tariq al-Hashimi, was appointed by parliament as vice president Saturday, was killed by unidentified gunmen in a sedan as she was leaving her southwestern Baghdad home with her bodyguard, said police Capt. Jamel Hussein.
The bodyguard, Saad Ali, also died. Hussein said.
It was the second recent killing in Tariq al-Hashimi's immediate family. On April 13, his brother, Mahmoud al-Hashimi, was shot while driving in a mostly Shite area of eastern Baghdad.
On Thursday, two of the vice president's brothers, one an army officer, raced to the scene to recover the body of their sister, Hussein said. She had worked on the government's audit commission and was married with two grown children.

OUR OPINION
Community outreach discredits ranking
Into The Streets Week is coming to a close. The Center for Community Outreach has done a good job advocating the importance of community service to University students and has brought awareness to social issues such as poverty and homelessness.
CCO arranged an open forum to discuss the report and the conclusion of those on the panel agreed that Lawrence was certainly not the meanest. Lawrence city commissioner Dennis "Boog" Highberger called the ranking inaccurate, and Loring Henderson, director of Lawrence Open Shelter, said it was unhelpful and done by people 1,000 miles away who read newspapers and watched the news from the area.
With so much social action, it is surprising that the National Homeless Coalition would give Lawrence the designation of being the second meanest city to homeless persons in the nation. While a community can always do more for those in need, the ranking is unwarranted and uninformed and takes away from the work that students and others in the community put toward those in need.
Helen Hartnett, professor of social welfare, agreed that the ranking wasn't the most reliable, but gave reasons for the coalition's move. Three ordinances that passed quickly in the past year that criminalized behavior associated with homeless, such as panhandling, prompted concern, she said. The severity of the ranking has helped to bring about dialogue about the problem.
Issue: Into The Streets Week and Lawrence's ranking as the second worst city for homeless persons.
Stance: Student and community invovlement were overlooked in the ranking.
But there are holes in the coalition's research. A lack of input from the homeless community denies an essential perspective, Hartnett said. The progress of services for the homeless, from relatively few several years ago to the implementation of more that aren't funded properly denies Lawrence's status as a work in progress. Henderson said.
It is important that students and Lawrence remain vigilant in improving the lives of every individual in the community. Volunteering in whatever way one can, whether it's helping in Jubilee Café or helping at a shelter, is important. Writing to your local newspaper about social issues can bring awareness to the entire community and attending city meetings provides an opportunity to speak toward those in control of public resources.
Ty Beaver for the editorial board
Lawrence is undeserving of the ranking provided by the coalition, but that doesn't mean that the community shouldn't keep trying to improve and do its best.

What I am about to say may make you steaming angry. It will probably make you furious. It won't surprise me one bit if there are several riots in The University Daily Kansan newsroom today involving people with axes and torches. So, at the risk of overturned cars and broken windows, I will try to say this diplomatically — "The Da Vinci Code" is an awful book.
COMMENTARY
Jennifer Weaver, sales and marketing adviser
864-7666 or jweaver@kansan.com
There, I said it. I know many of you disagree with me. According to Facebook, "The Da Vinci Code" is currently the most popular book at the University of Kansas. The Bible, which "The Da Vinci Code" is based on, is ranked a lowly fourth. This isn't a popular article and, in fact, it was by accident that I read the book at all.
While other airports seem to have bookstores that rival the Library of Congress, Kansas City International Airport has decided to take a minimalist approach to its stock, meaning that if it was not recommended by Oprah or written by Dan Brown, then they don't have it.
Recently, I had about six hours to kill at the airport, which is what happens when you show up as your plane is taxing and the next flight doesn't leave for about six hours. After spending one of those hours at Cinnabon wondering how something could be so delicious and yet so disgusting at the same time, I was quite bored when my wandering eyes saw that oasis of the airport. The terminal's bookstore.

TALK TO US
My first problem with the book started before I had even opened a page. As anybody who has taken Art History 101 will tell you, Da Vinci is not a name. It is just Italian for "from Vinci." Still I tried not to let this small detail make my review of the book biased. What did make my review biased was Brown's statement at the front about all documents and
stories being accurate. Michael Crichton never claimed at the beginning of "jurassic Park" that there really was an island with dinosaurs or that extracting DNA from dinosaurs was a viable way to clone dinosaurs. Brown's book is just as much fiction, but it keeps trying to convince itself
Jonathan Kealing, editor
864-4854 or jkealing@kansan.com
This is how I found myself reading "The Da Vinci Code." For the two people left who haven't read it, I will try my best to explain the plot. Robert Langdon: good. Catholic Church: bad. I am omitting a couple of details here and there, but what happens in between is a plot with enough twists and turns and mysterious characters to fill all of Agatha Christie's novels. I am not trying to be one of those literary snobs who just bashes popular books. I'm a huge sucker for Clive Cussler novels, and on a recent fishing trip I took three books: "The Old Man and the Sea," "Mory Dick" and "One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish." The only one I ended up even opening was Dr. Seuss' masterpiece. It's just that "The Da Vinci Code" was a little too unbelievable for me.
— and the reader — that what they are reading is highly classified material.
Another problem I had was the incredible coincidences in "The Da Vinci Code." The book asked me to suspend my belief in the laws of chance just one too many times, and even in my impaired judgement caused by coming down from the high of five cinnamon rolls, I was scratching my head.
A. R. S. P.
I know you weren't expecting a book review in this space, but all I seem to hear from friends when discussing books is "Dan Brown this" and "The Da Vinci Code' that." The KU library system has more than six million books, most of which weren't written by Dan Brown, and one or two that aren't half bad. If you liked "The Da Vinci Code," you should try reading the original Sherlock Holmes stories by Arthur Conan Doyle or read the original mystery/crime writer, Edgar Allan Poe. Then next time someone brings up "The Da Vinci Code," you can add a new twist like: "That Teabing is no Moriarty!" Imagine how cool you would be then.
GTA positions temporary by nature

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
I would like to make a few comments to the GTA negotiation team. I appreciate your desire to improve the quality of life for graduate students on campus. Unfortunately I believe you to be uninformed. GTAs are replaceable units that comprise one giant machine that processes inputs (students) and outputs (graduates). The nature of GTA positions is temporary. Be realistic about your expectations and accept this temporary position in life for what it is — training.
The five-year limit for GTA sponsorship is more about you than them. Remember what was told to you at GTA orientation.
relies heavily on our labor as GTAs, but, individually, we are unimportant. By nature we come and go. We live modestly and study hard. The academy owes us nothing. We demonstrate that we are valuable to our community of scholars by being hazed into the profession through our degree program. We pay up front for a beautiful future in the academy. Thus is the life of a graduate student. Accept it, understand it, take what you can get and earn your degree.
Justin Tucker Survey Research Center manager Policy Research Institute
You are first a graduate student and secondly a GTA. It is your responsibility to ensure successful completion of your degree program. Why would you suffer the economic condition of a GTA beyond what the college deems a sufficient amount of time to complete your degree? GTA positions are a means to an end — your degree. The administration is assisting you by paying you a stipend and likely a tuition waiver. You will best help future graduate students not by creating an impasse, but by graduating within the five-year limit and opening up GTA positions for them.
At a macro level, the University
MARK VIERTHALER opinion@kansan.com
This was going to be the farthest I had been from home. It would also be my first taste of a culture that was beginning to flex its muscles on an international scale.
Two years ago, on my nineteenth birthday, I woke up at five in the morning in a St. Louis hotel room. I was a block away from the airport where my plane was being gassed up for a short jump to LAX. From LAX, I was to fly in to Shanghai. From Shanghai, I would meet my brother in Beijing.
COMMENTARY
The University of Kansas is opening one of the first Confucius Institutes in the United States.
Changes in China mark new era
My brother said this was a sign of the times. Our driver was middle aged, a prime target for Mao propaganda. But, modern ideals had begun to change the landscape.
I spent three weeks across the eastern coast of China. From Beijing to Qingdao to Shanghai and back. Everywhere, western culture mingled with eastern traditions. And everywhere you looked, there were American factories.
My last night in China was a muggy July evening in the middle of downtown Beijing. I sat, nursing my beer, as several of my traveling companions sat around watching the neon lights of the hotel across the street wash out everything pink, then purple, then green.
Our second night in China, my brother and I got into a cab. Loud shouting and angry gesturing from the cabbie greeted us. My brother chuckled to himself as we careened the streets of Beijing. Our cabbie was complaining about the poor state of the country. It was all Mao's fault, he shouted in mandarin. He was happy to have Americans, even if he hated Bush.
"The world's changing," said one of my friends.
It has been. Since the '80s China has offered cheap labor for American companies. Now they are starting to offer their own goods and services. And the world is taking notice.
- Vierthaler is a Dodge City junior in journalism.
The Chinese president, Hu Jintao, visited the United States last week in what was dubbed a "diplomatic" mission.
In few places is this more evident than within China itself.
Our generation is coming in to a new world market. China is no longer the blatant dictatorship of our parents' era. When my dad was a kid the phrase "Better dead than red," stirred up the animosity between us and the east. It's no longer the red state of the past. They have begun to recognize free market trade. China is quickly becoming a technological giant.
What do all these things mean?
We're not alone in the world anymore. With billions of citizens, a rising middle class and increased education, China is adapting itself to a worldwide economy. It's easy to get cocky, growing up in a country that dictates a large amount of both pop culture and social norms

Sebelius fined for ethics violation
BY JOHN HANNA
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
STATE
TOPEKA — Gov. Kathleen Sebelius was fined $1,500 by the state ethics commission Thursday for illegally soliciting campaign contributions from lobbyists.
The case involved an April 12 e-mail that Sebelius' re-election campaign sent to 92,000 supporters.
Among those supporters, 39 appeared to be lobbyists, and 16 registered lobbyists actually received the e-mail, according to testimony before the commission.
State law prohibits legislators, statewide officials and candidates for those offices from seeking contributions from lobbyists, corporations and political action committees while the legislature remains in session.
The Governmental Ethics Commission concluded that the Sebelius campaign e-mail was a solicitation.
Sebellus' campaign paid the fine immediately.
Sebelius' staff had described the e-mail as an update on education, but at the bottom was a link to the governor's campaign Web site, where people can make a contribution. The link itself said: "Make a contribution."
The governor in a statement said she respected the ruling and looked forward to getting more "guidance on the use of e-mails, since this technology is becoming more widely used to communicate with voters."
She can dig it,can you?

The Kansas City Royals had to face former Cy Young Award winner Johan Santana last night at Kauffman Stadium. Things didn't go too well for the home team.
But why in the world would you even think of leaving the KU premises with the series the KU baseball team will open tonight at Hogund Ballpark?
The 30th-ranked Jayhawks welcome the hottest team in all of college baseball to town. The No. 8 Oklahoma Sooners have won 11 games in a row dating back to April 9. These guys have lost only two games in the month of April, once to Texas and once to Texas A&M. And I thought the Chicago White Sox were hot.
We stat-keeping people generally don't look a whole lot at fielding percentages. Almost every single team will have a percentage between 960 and 980. There isn't enough of a difference for any normal fan to know the difference.
When you minimize the fielding and throwing errors, you will have a better chance to win the close ones. OU is proving that.
The interesting thing about this Oklahoma team is that it doesn't win through outstanding hitting, it doesn't throw shutouts every day, but it does play mistake-free, consistent baseball.
But OU is leading the Big 12 conference in fielding percentage at .984. For those who don't know don't keep such a close eye on defense, that is a very high average, especially for a team who has played 43 games so far. The Sooners have committed only 26 errors the entire season. They have the slight advantage against KU in that category - the Jayhawks have 62.
During their current 11-game winning streak, seven of the victories have come by three runs or less. Three of those seven came by only one run.
This series is an important one for KU. They have remained strong, posting a 9-9 conference record and a 14-2 home mark this year. But this weekend they face a tough and consistent team that simply knows how to win.
NFL calls for position swap
My best advice for the KU hitters this weekend is to hit the ball where the Sooners ain't, because they ain't gonna drop it.

Senior defensive end Charlton Keith hurries Missouri quarterback Brad Smith out of the pocket during Kansas' 13-3 victory against Missouri at Memorial Stadium on Oct. 29, 2005. Keith and his former teammate Charles Gordon are eligible for the NFL draft this Saturday.
BY DREW DAVISON
ddavison@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
If Charlton Keith wants to play in the NFL on Sundays, he will have to make the transition from playing defensive end to outside linebacker.
The NFL Draft will take place in Radio City Music Hall in New York on Saturday and Sunday. Keith has been projected to be a seventh-round pick by espn.com and The Sporting News. ESPN had the Houston Texans taking Keith with pick No. 251, while The Sporting News had the Seattle Seahawks taking him with pick No. 249.
Keith said he did not look at mock drafts. He also said it was difficult to get a vibe on teams that were interested in drafting him.
To prepare for the NFL, Keith has bulked up to 243 pounds, about 20 pounds more than last season. His target weight is 260 pounds.
"I need to continue to lift weights, eat and stay in shape," Keith said. "I'm continuing to work on technique for playing linebacker."
Keith already has some experience playing the position, having been a linebacker in high school.

'Hawks looking for big wins in Norman

KANSAN SENIOR SWITTERWRI
The Kansas softball team will travel to Norman, Okla., to face No. 23 Oklahoma this weekend. Despite the Sooners' ranking, the Jayhawks are fifth in the Big 12 Conference, while the Sooners are sixth. On the season, Oklahoma is 30-18-1 and 6-10 in the Big 12, while Kansas is 27-21 and 6-7 in the conference.
KU
KU QU
OU
Match-up to watch:
One of the weekend's most interesting match-ups will pit Oklahoma's offense, ranked best in the Big 12, against Kansas' pitching, ranked second in the Big 12. KU pitchers give up fewer than two runs a game on
the season, while Oklahoma hitters average five runs a contest. If Kansas' pitchers can dominate hitters like they did last weekend against Texas, all the Jayhawks need to do is score a few runs to ensure the victory.
Kansas Quick Hits:
- Junior pitcher Kassie Humpheys and senior pitcher Serena Settlemier both rank in the top of three of the Big 12 in numerous pitching categories. While Settlemier owns the best record at 15-5, Humpheys averages more than
eight strikeouts and gives up fewer than two runs per game.
♦ A threat on the mound and at the plate, Settlemier ranks third in the nation with 20 home runs on the season.
After being no-hit by Nebraska on Wednesday night, Kansas' overall batting dropped to ninth out of the 10 Big 12 softball teams. The Jayhawks are now batting .321 on the season.
- In last year's series against the Sooners, the Jayhawks won the season series for the first time since the 1993 season.
♦ Senior second baseman Jessica Moppin has recorded a hit in four of five games last week. For the week, Moppin went 7-for-15, batting .466.
Settlemier recorded a victory against the Sooners last season in the first of a two-game series.
KU Postseason Outlook:
In its final road series of the season, Kansas has an opportunity to solidify the fifth seed in the upcoming Big 12 tournament in Oklahoma City. The Jayhawks are four victories away from tying their total of 31 last season. Those 31 victories were good enough to earn Kansas a spot in the NCAA Regionals. If the Jayhawks hope to make it back to the postseason, a sweep of a ranked opponent late in the season is crucial.
Oklahoma Quick Hits:
month of April.
♦ The Sooners team batting average is .311, good enough for 17th in the nation.
♦ While not necessarily a power team, Oklahoma boasts the Big 12's top two hits leaders. Third baseman Traci Dickensen leads the conference with 71 hits on the season, while center fielder Kristin Vesely has 67.

Tight schedule leads to fatigue

KANSAER STAFF WRITER
Last season, the Kansas football team played 11 regular season games. Counting exhibition, Kansas basketball played 31 regular season games.
Kansas baseball will play 61 games this season — before the Big 12 tournament.
Kansas leads the Big 12 Conference in games played now that it's played its 47th game of the season Wednesday night, winning against Creighton 9-1.
As players get more than 60 games into the regular season, they are left with miniscule amounts of time off. In the past five weeks, the Jayhawks have suited up for 20 games.
"I can't say I'm getting tired," said senior outfielder Gus Milner. "It's a lot better than practicing that's for sure. Practice gets a little boring and repetitive sometimes. Playing against other teams is always good for you and it gets other guys into the game."
Even though the team has most of its Mondays off, pretty much any allotted free time gets wrapped up without even adding schoolwork into the mix. Throw in a little homework, and the players have one rigorous schedule.
"I actually think baseball players like to play every day," Kansas coach Ritch Price said. "I think you see the ball better and you're at better rhythm at the plate. I think the more you play, the better you are."
In that way, the 60-plus game strategy is working. The Jayhawks have won nine of their past 12 games, outscoring opponents by more than 30 runs, 97-66.
Two of those, Oklahoma and A&M, will be in the comforts of Hoglund Ballpark, now complete with a video board.
Sitting at the fourth spot in the Big 12, Kansas only has three conference series remaining before the Big 12 tournament starts in the last week of May. The Jayhawks will take on No. 14 Oklahoma, No. 9 Texas and Texas A&M.
Although news of the installment sounds like front-page material, Associate Athletic Director Jim Marchiony said the actual debut of the working
video board was a couple weeks away. It still has quite a few electrical and mechanical issues to iron out, he said.
"When it's fully operational though, it'll add a lot to the baseball experience here," Marchiony said.
In the meantime, the Jay hawks will continue to use whatever resources necessary to stay on the winning road they've turned on to, with or without a break.
"I think it's kind of good for us right now since we're playing good," Junior right-hander Brendan McNamara said. "It keeps our bats and our pitching going. Everything is kind of coming together right now."

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MISSOURI
COLUMBIA, Mo. — A Boone County Circuit Court judge has ordered The Columbia Daily Tribune to hand over hundreds of unpublished photos to attorneys on both sides of a wrongful death lawsuit involving a fallen Missouri football player.
Judge Gary Oxenhandler ruled Wednesday that the newspaper must disclose 604 unpublished photos to attorneys representing the family of former Missouri reserve linebacker Aaron O'Neal as well as 14 university employees named as defendants, including head coach Gary Pinkel, athletic director Mike Alden and team medical director Rex Sharp.
The 19-year-old redshirt
freshman collapsed on the field about 45 minutes into an hourlong, voluntary workout on July 12, 2005, and died later that afternoon.
The Boone County medical examiner ruled that O'Neal died of viral meningitis, with swelling in his brain affecting his heart and causing him to lose his ability to breathe properly.
Tribune photographer Jenna Isaacson documented O'Neal's collapse on Faurot Field at the preseason workout.
But attorney Jean Maneke, who represents the newspaper, said she was not certain the Tribune would appeal the ruling, citing concern that a higher court ruling could establish case law that would make it even harder for reporters to protect their work products in the future.
Isaacson, who had agreed to testify about what she witnessed at the practice, is out of the country and could not be reached for comment.
"An innocent photographer is now in the position of having to assist a private plaintiff trying to win a large sum of money from the university," Maneke said. "They're using our newspaper to make that happen."
The Tribute has 10 business days to turn over the photos.
Attorneys for Lonnie O'Neal, the player's father, sought the photos to bolster the case, arguing that the absence of a reporters' shield law in Missouri meant the paper had no legal basis for its refusal of a subpoena of Isaacson's photos.

Junior cornerback Charles Gordon eludes the tackle of Missouri's Dedrick Harrington during a punt return in the Jayhawks 13-3 victory against the Tigers on Oct. 29. Gordon's future in the NFL will be decided this weekend at the NFL draft.
Draft
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 18
Whichever team takes Keith this weekend, his teammates will be with him to celebrate on draft day.
Keith chose Steve Kauffman to be his agent. Kauffman is the agent of Cleveland Cavaliers guard Eric Snow, who is also Keith's cousin.
Former cornerback/wide receiver Charles Gordon is also getting ready for the draft this weekend. Gordon decided to forgo his senior season to enter the draft early. Gordon attended the NFL Combine as well.
"I think a lot of teams see
huge upside," Gordon said. "I think I can become a pretty good cornerback."
Gordon has been projected to be drafted anywhere from the fourth to sixth round. Espn.com had the New England Patriots drafting him in round four at pick No. 118, while The Sporting News has the Detroit Lions taking him in round six at pick No. 179.
"I flew out to New England and did an individual workout," Gordon said of working out with the Patriots.
Gordon, like Keith, said it was difficult to tell where he would be drafted.
Gordon said he did not pay attention to mock drafts because
they were inaccurate
He said there were too many drafts online and he didn't pay much attention to them.
As for his draft day plans, Gordon said he'd be at his house in Lawrence watching the draft with his family.
Kenny Zuckerman, president of Priority Sports, is Gordon's agent.
Football Notes:
Former linebacker Nick Reid is the only other Kansas player who might be drafted. Draft-daddy.com had Reid going to the Indianapolis Colts in the sixth round at pick No. 207.
BY DAVE GOLDBERG THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Players ready for end of talk
Edited by John Jordan
NEW YORK — Two days before the NFL draft, even the players who will be picked at the top are tired of listening to the chatter and reading the gossip.
In other words, just get on with it.
"There's so much uncertainty I don't even pay attention to what they're saying anymore," Southern Cal quarterback Matt Leinart, the 2004 Heisman trophy winner, said Thursday during an NFL-sponsored media session for six of the top prospective draftees. Those players have spent the last few days in New York at similar events leading up to Saturday's lottery at Radio City Music Hall.
"I don't want to watch television. I don't want to look at mock drafts. I just want it to happen."
That is typical of this draft season, where everything is murky, in part because of an unusually long period between the end of the college season and the draft. That gives teams all the opportunity in the world to overanalyze everyone, even Reggie Bush, Leinart's Troians teammate, his successor as the Heisman winner and the player almost everyone has conceded Houston will take with the top pick.
Of all the top picks — and there's a general consensus on the top 10 or 12 — Leinart seems to be the one sliding in the final days, although no one is sure why. In fact, there are a few people who think he could end up going to Minnesota at No.17, 16 spots below where he almost surely would have been selected if he had come out a year ago, and 10 spots or more below where he is likely to end up.
Even that seems a bit up in the air. But just a bit.
The Texans announced Wednesday they are negotiating with both Bush and Mario Williams, the North Carolina State defensive end who has been described as a cross between Julius Peppers and Lawrence Taylor, who both played at rival North Carolina. Williams' stock has been soaring and Houston owner Bob McNair, who was at Thursday's gathering, insisted there is still discussion over the choice.
McNair said the negotiations are important so the Texans can avoid a holdout.
But he also said the indecision is legitimate — it usually is a ruse — because the front office still hasn't decided which of the two can provide the most help to his team, which finished 2-14 last season.
"We are very serious about this, not nervous," McNair said. "We will address where we have the greatest needs and where the player can help us the most. It's not often we have the opportunity to select a player of this caliber. You want to make a pick of a player who will be with you and make a contribution for a long period of time."
Bush?
BUSH:
He seems to understand the process having played, like Leinart, for the most scrutinized team in a major media market without an NFL team. Playing in Los Angeles for two-time national champion Southern Cal is just about the same as playing for, say, the Giants or Jets or Bears or Patriots.
"This is like everybody is playing high-stakes poker," he said. "Everyone has their sunglasses on ... at the end of the day you can't control it. You have to trust the organization to make
So he doesn't seem fazed by the Texans' juggling act.
the decision based on who they feel will most help the team."
Bush, probably the highest-rated running back since Barry Sanders 17 years ago — he's often compared to Sanders and Gale Sayers — is still likely to go No. 1 to Houston.
Picks 2-7 are supposed to be, in some order: Leinart; Williams; quarterback Vince Young of Texas; offensive tackle D'Brickashaw Ferguson of Virginia; tight end Vernon Davis of Maryland; and linebacker A.J. Hawk of Ohio State, the only one who wasn't present Thursday. Teams 2-7 are New Orleans, Tennessee, the New York Jets, Green Bay, San Francisco and Oakland.
That order and those players (add in Jay Cutler of Vanderbilt, the third quarterback in the top group) make it seem unlikely Leinart will fall anywhere close to 17. If Tennessee takes Young with the third pick — owner Bud Adams wants him, the coaching staff may not — Leinart still might not get by the Jets or Raiders and certainly not beyond Arizona at 10 or Baltimore at 13.
In fact, other teams might try to get up for a quarterback or one of the other players in that top group.
top group "My gut tells me once one or two of these players starts to slide a little bit, teams might come flying up there for them, especially a quarterback," says Scot McCloughan, the director of personnel for the 49ers, who took Alex Smith with the 2005 No.1 pick, a choice they might well have used on Leinart if he was available.
"I have not seen a Top 10 this sporadic this late in the process of the draft. Some of the things that I am hearing from the agents blows my mind. It is just a very unique year," he said.

Twins pitcher has good outing against Royals
BY DOUG TUCKER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Johan Santana found the perfect cure for his slow start: the Kansas City Royals.
Santana had 10 strike outs in eight innings to get his first victory of the season, leading the Minnesota Twins over the Royals 7-3 on Thursday.
"I felt pretty good today," said Santana (1-3), who had never started 0-3 before. "I was throwing the fastball in and out of the plate and I was able to throw my change-up. It was a nice day."
In his last seven starts against Kansas City, Santana is 6-0 with a 1.50 ERA. The 2004 Cy Young winner has recorded 115 strikeouts against the Royals in his six-plus seasons, more than any other major league team.
The Royals, who committed three errors, said Santana's change-up was particularly baffling.
"I was throwing it the whole time," he said. "I knew it was there so I was using it the whole time."
four straight.
"He looked pretty solid," Royals catcher John Buck said. "I faced him last year and he looks just as good."
The Twins opened up a 5-0 lead in the second inning and the Royals were quickly in trouble against a pitcher they haven't beaten in almost two years. He allowed seven hits and three runs with one walk.
The only Kansas City starter who did not strike out at least once was Mark Grudzielanek. In one stretch in the fifth and sixth innings, Santana fanned four straight.
Angel Berroa homered in the second for Kansas City. It was the Royals' seventh earned run against Santana in his last seven starts and 47 1-3 innings against them.
Tiring in the eighth, he gave up a double to Mark Teahen and
RBI singles to Tony Graffanino and Shane Costa.
"We just weren't able to do anything mainly because he was pitching so well." Royals manager Buddy Bell said. "His fastball and his change-up. The biggest part of the day was the five runs early. When you're facing a guy like that, it's a tough situation."
Shannon Stewart, Luis Castillo and Michael Cuddery each had three hits. Cuddery also hit his third home run.
Mark Redman (0-1) lasted 12-3 innings in his third start since beginning the season on the disabled list with a knee injury. He was charged with five runs and six hits, with three walks and no strikeouts.
"It was his third start and it wasn't very good today," Bell said. "But for the most part, since we got him back he's been pretty good."
in tossing two of three to the Twins, the Royals managed
only seven runs. In their last eight series against their AL Central rivals, the Twins have won six and tied two.
"That's a very aggressive swinging team over there," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said. "They're like our ballclub. Today Santana was aggressive and he threw the ball great. He was attacking the hitters pretty good."
Lew Ford and Cuddyer had back-to-back singles in the second inning and Ford scored when they executed a double steal and Buck threw the ball into center field.
After walks to Luis Rodriguez and Stewart loaded the bases, Luis Castillo hit a two-run singie and Mike Redmond and Rondell White followed with RBI singles off Redman.
Cuddyer's home run off reliever Mike Wood made it 6-1 in the third and then Rodriguez scored from third on a fielding error by third baseman Teahen in the sixth.

Two of Big 12's best to clash
KU First Pitch AT A GLANCE:
---
The Jayhawks enjoyed another successful week, winning last weekend's series against Kansas State two games to one before sweeping their opponents in the Best of the Midwest tournament in Kansas City, Kan. The team has won 10 of its past 13 games and boasts a 14-2 record at home. That mark is good enough for a No. 30 ranking on the NCBWA poll and a tie with Baylor for fourth in the Big 12.
LAST TIME OUT:
kansas pitching finally had an opportunity to shine hand-in-hand with its hitting in the team's outing against Creighton on Wednesday. Midweek starter Nick Czyz (3-1) threw a career-high seven innings against the Bluejays, allowing one hit. The Jayhawks had eight strikeouts with one walk and the offense produced nine runs off 12 hits.
PLAYER TO WATCH:
Gus Milner: The senior outfielder
Gus Milner. The see is 7-of-17 in the Jayhawks past five games. He led his team's offense against Kansas State, going 4-of-10 with a pair of RBI in the three-game set. He also made his presence
known at the Best of the Midwest tournament, going 3-for-7 with another pair of RBI to bring his team-leading total to 49 on the season.
FIVE QUICK FACTS:
14 - More runs Kansas scored than both its Best of the Midwest opponents combined.
0 - Times the Jayhawks have finished the season with a winning conference record since the Big 12 was created. They are currently 9-9 in conference.
2 - Kansas 'rank in home runs in the conference, with 12.
18 - Batters that Kansas pitchers struck out in the past two games.
63 - Number of hits Milner has tallied this season, tying him for third in the Big 12.
LOOKING FORWARD:
With nine conference victories already this season and nine Big 12 games to go, the Jayhawks are just two away from the 11 victories they posted in conference last season. If Kansas can stop Oklahoma's 11-game winning streak and go on a streak of its own, it could walk into Austin, Texas, next week with a solid record before facing the defending College World Series champs.
KEY TO VICTORY:
Defense. Even though the Jayhawks posted a 4-1 record last week, they could have gone 5-0. The winning runs that Kansas State put up against Kansas in the series finale were all unearned. Offense and pitching bailed the Jayhawks out a couple of different times this week, as they committed eight errors and allowed seven unearned runs in their past five games.
Kansas vs. Oklahoma 7 p.m., Friday; 6 p.m., Saturday; 1 p.m., Sunday
KANSAS
Offense:
The Jayhawks offense had an opportunity to break out again against Kansas State and its midweek opponents, Southeast Missouri State and Creighton, scoring 32 runs in its last five games. Although the boys in blue can swing the bat (they've blasted 51 long balls as a team), they have a poor habit of swinging and missing. They lead the Big 12 with 325 strikeouts. Sophomore second baseman Ryne Price is the only Jayhawk with at least a .300 average against the Sooners. But because it's possible that Price's recovery from wrist surgery two weeks ago may not yet be complete, the Jayhawks will have to find their bats amongst the tough Sooner pitching.

Despite a successful week, the Jayhawks did not take their best defense with them to Manhattan or Kansas City. Kansas tallied a season-high four errors in the series finale against Kansas State on Sunday.
OKLAHOMA

Those errors contributed to the Wildcats three unearned runs, pushing them past the Jayhawks 5-4.The eight errors and seven unearned runs that Kansas was responsible for in its last five games simply will not fly against Oklahoma. The 62 errors Kansas has committed as a team is in contrast with the 26 Oklahoma has committed, which is the best in the Big 12.

Six Sooners (who qualify for the league batting title) are batting better than .300, and two are just shy of that mark. Oklahoma has only 27 home runs, though, in 43 games. To put runs on the board, the Sooners play small ball by stringing together hits and stealing bases. Oklahoma is third in the Big 12 with 470 hits and 85 stolen bases and fourth in the conference with 86 doubles and 17 triples. As a result, the Sooners have scored 324 runs - second most in the Big 12. Seniors Chuckie Caufield and Ryan Rohlinger lead the Oklahoma offense with a combined .375 batting average, 94 runs, 10 home runs, 181 total bases and 20 stolen bases.
OU
Defense:
With a 33-10 record, the Sooners aren't beaten by their opponents often. Even more rare are the times Oklahoma beats itself with mistakes on defense. Oklahoma leads the Big 12 in fielding with only 28 errors and a .983 fielding percentage. Oklahoma catchers are next-to-worst in the conference with 12 passed balls but are nailing would-be base stealers nearly one-third of the time. Despite astonishing support from their defense, Oklahoma's team ERA is 4.57. With 302 strikeouts as a staff, though, Sooner pitchers have the ability to dominate names when they're on.

Coaching:
Coach Sunny Galloway is in his first season as Oklahoma's skipper and has his club sitting in third place in the Big 12 at 11-4, with an outside chance of catching either Texas or Nebraska to move up in the conference standings. No matter where or who his team plays. Galloway's

OU First Pitch
AT A GLANCE:
Oklahoma (11-4) is right behind Nebraska and Texas in the Big 12 standings. A series victory against Kansas would keep Oklahoma in position to surpass the Huskers or Longhorns in the standings, with only one game separating the three teams. Oklahoma is riding an 11-game winning streak into Lawrence – its longest since 1998.
Oklahoma beat New Mexico on Monday, 18-9. The Sooners trailed the Lobos 7-6 in the bottom of the sixth, though, until senior outfielder Chuckie Caufield led off with a solo homer that tied the game. Oklahoma scored nine more runs in the sixth, putting the game out of reach.
PLAYER TO WATCH:
LAST TIME OUT:
Ryan Rohlinger. If leadoff man

cauldind doesn't get you, senior infielder Ryan Rohlinger will. Rohlinger is second on the team in batting average, runs, RBI and hits behind Caufield, but leads
the team with six home runs, 91 total bases and a .572 slugging percentage.
FIVE QUICK FACTS:
1 - Number of conference series Oklahoma has lost this season, the one to Texas two games to one.
-The rank Big 12 coaches voted Oklahoma to finish in the conference. Unless the Sooners fall apart in the last month of the season, they should finish no lower than third.
8 - Straight Big 12 games Oklahoma has won during its 11-game winning streak.
10 - National rank of the Oklahoma pitching staff in shutouts with five, according to boydsworld.com.
28 - Errors Oklahoma has committed - by far the fewest in the Big 12.
---
LOOKING FORWARD:
If Oklahoma can finish no lower than third in the Big 12, it will have earned it. Oklahoma's only break will come next week in its final home series against Kansas State. Oklahoma will then travel to a neutral site to play in-state rival Oklahoma State the following week. Oklahoma will face Nebraska in Lincoln in its regular season finale, which may decide how the chips fall at the top of the conference.

KEY TO VICTORY:
using a staff that should take advantage of a Kansas lineup that has 324 strikeouts and Oklahoma's
defense will certainly help its pitchers out. The Oklahoma offense must do its part and find ways to put runs on the board against a stingy Kansas staff.

TEXAS A&M (21-23, 4-14) VS. NO. 9 TEXAS (29-15, 13-4)
This series certainly won't help Texas' schedule, but if the Longhorns don't sweep the series, the series could prove even more costly to them. Oklahoma is just behind Texas in the Big 12 standings at 11-4, so to remain ahead of the Sooners, the Longhorns can't overlook the Aggies. Texas should be focused, though, as it is coming off a series loss to Nebraska at home, which was its first conference series loss of the year. Texas hasn't lost consecutive Big 12 series since March 2002. As for Texas A&M, the Aggies haven't won consecutive games since back-to-back victories against Texas Tech and Lamar on March 26 and 28. Texas A&M can, however, start a new winning streak this week after defeating Texas-San Antonio 9-3 on Tuesday, avenging a 4-2 loss to the Roadrunners earlier in the year.

TEXAS TECH (27-17-1, 6-10-1) VS. NO. 4 NEBRASKA (33-6, 12-3)
This series will tell the tale of two teams. Texas Tech is in eighth place in the Big 12 and hanging on for its conference tournament life. Nebraska is first place in the Big 12 and appears to be hitting its stride just in time to steamroll through the conference tournament and into the NCAA tournament. Texas Tech hasn't won a Big 12 series in three weeks and was swept by Oklahoma last week. If Texas Tech gets swept by Nebraska this weekend, it may find itself on the outside looking in come Big 12 tourney time. Nebraska's 12-game winning streak was snapped by a loss to Texas last weekend, but the Huskers ultimately won the series and haven't lost a Big 12 series all season. Nebraska is coming off an 11-0 victory over Wichita State on Tuesday. Cornhusker pitchers — sophomore left Jon Klausing, freshman right Erik Bird and freshman left Zach Herr — combined to throw the two-hit shutout.

(2)
NO. 29 BAYLOR (26-17, 9-9) VS. MISSOURI (19-20, 7-11)
Baylor is currently fifth and Missouri is sitting in the seventh spot. Baylor has flip-flopped the past four weekends, losing to Texas Tech, sweeping Oklahoma State, getting swept by Texas and beating A&M last weekend. The Bears were shut out for the first time all season Wednesday by McNeese State, losing 7-0. Missouri comes in with minimal momentum but if it is to salve its season, its 14-3 victory against Southeast Missouri State on Wednesday might provide just the lift the Tigers needed. The team scored nine runs in the top of the ninth, but the real story was the return of junior all-American right-hander Max Scherzer. Scherzer didn't pitched since April 8 because of an arm injury. He pitched just two innings in his start Wednesday, but allowed no runs or hits, well欺 only one and struck out five.
