The fire started between 6 and 6:30 p.m. in a second-floor apartment at 2136 W. 26th St., just west of 26th and Iowa streets. Rich Barr, prevention division chief for Lawrence-Douglas County Fire and Medical, said the injured man was airlifted to Lawrence Memorial Hospital after a police officer had pulled him out of his burning second-floor apartment. Barr didn't comment on the degree of the man's burns, but said that fire victims generally weren't flown to the hospital unless major burns were sustained. "Based just on that, I would say the inturies are serious," he said. night to determine the cause. Four fire trucks responded and the firefighters contained the fire to the apartment it had started in. Barr said the fire hadn't caused major structural damage but the contents of the apartment were destroyed. Investigators were working Friday Tanner Willbanks, a Lawrence freshman who lives in the third-floor apartment directly above the one that burned, woke from a nap to the sound of his smoke detector. With the help of a firefighter, he made it down his smoke-filled enclosed stairway with his laptop. After the smoke cleared, he went back up with a firefighter and found his cat, Katsumi. Lawrence resident Christine Anderson lives in the building next to the one that caught fire. As a few residents stood together in front of the building, talking in the light rain about what had happened, she stood alone with her arms crossed, looking at the balcony of the second-floor apartment as firefighters shone flashlights inside. "Oh, God," she said. "That's my friend." Check Kansan.com or pick up a copy of Tuesday's The University Daily Kansan for updates on this story.

The sorority currently resides at the Legends apartments, 4101 W. 24th Place, in West Lawrence. BY FRED A. DAVIS III ldavis@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Sorority moves again Goodbye Legends apartments, hello Sigma Nu house. That's the scenario for Alpha Gamma Delta sorority as the women prepare to take up new digs for the 2006-2007 school year while they wait for construction on their new house across the street to be completed. The former Sigma Nu house, soon-to-be Alpha-Gamma-Delta house, 1501 Sigma Nu Place, has been vacant since late September 2005. The fraternity had its charter revoked by the National Siigma Nu Chapter. "The ladies are thrilled to be moving into the house," said Kim Heck, president of the House Association for Alpha Gamma Delta. The sorority has been living in the Legends apartments, 4101 W. 24th Place, for the last year after it vacated its previous house, which was located near the new fire station at 19th and Iowa Streets, now home to Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity. "Several years ago, that area was a thriving Greek community," Heck said. "But now with the fire station and apartments popping up, the environment is changing and we started looking for property favorable to the Greek living arrangement." It's always a positive thing, living on campus.

The Kansas Department of Health and Environment returned to its original recommendation of a nine-day isolation period in an attempt to control the disease, said Patricia Denning, chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center. That recommendation reversed an April 7 announcement to adopt a shorter isolation period based on information from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Denning said the disease was most infectious during the first four days after symptoms onset, but could still be transmitted during the full nine days. She said the various health organizations had been evolving their views on the isolation period as more has been learned about the outbreak.

That center contacts faculty when students are kept home by long-lasting injuries and illnesses. The center has contacted professors of contagious students to inform them of the students' status, but Tuttle said students should contact their teachers directly to make course-specific arrangements.

Students participated in what was called the "Maypole Scrap." This activity was usually between freshmen and sophomore male students and many times ended with injuries. They were fights or attacks, although punching was frowned upon, and many people were hurt. --- The reason for the attacks was disrespect of the maypole. Covered in tar and other concoctions, freshmen would guard the maypole and demanded any passing pedestrians on campus, faculty included, to respect the flagpole by tipping their hat or bowing. Disrespecting their demands would result in a tussle that usually ended with students being covered in tar, turpentine, grease and oil.

Tactics to bring the pole down each year increased and injuries became more serious. The tradition ended in 1905 when Chancellor Strong had students sign a nonfighting pledge.

The next scheduled stop is in mid-July in Washington, D.C. Ann Shabshab, El Dorado senior, said she was drawn to the event because, as an ecology major, she was interested in the topic of reducing oil consumption and finding other alternatives. "I'm impressed with the presentations. It's nice to see people trying to learn instead of doing nothing," Shabshab said. A major attraction of the event was "Oil Shockwave," an oil crisis executive simulation. The simulation depicted a series of meetings designed to advise the president on devastating events that are affecting the world's supply of oil. Nuss, speaking after the conclusion of the conference, said the turnout exceeded expectations and that he was "very pleased" with the quality of information provided and the enthusiasm and willingness of people ready to take action on the issue.

Rice defends Iraq plan BY LIBBY QUAID THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — Just back from Baghdad and eager to discuss promising developments, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice found herself knocked off message Sunday, forced to defend prewar planning and troop levels against an unlikely critic — Colin Powell, her predecessor at the State Department. For the Bush administration, it was a rare instance of an inhouse dissenter going public. On Rice's mind was the political breakthrough that had brought her and Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld to Iraq last week and cleared the way for formation of a national unity government. Yet Powell sidedwipe her by revisiting the question of whether the U.S. had a large enough force to oust Saddam Hussein and then secure the peace. Powell said he advised Bush before the U.S.-led invasion in March 2003 to send more troops to Iraq. He said he advised Bush before the U.S.-led invasion in March 2003 to send more troops to Iraq, but that the administration did not follow his recommendation. Rice, Bush's national security adviser during the run-up to the war, neither confirmed nor denied Powell's assertion. But she spent a good part of her appearances on three Sunday talk shows reaching into the past to defend the White House, which is trying to highlight the positive to a public increasingly skeptical in this election year of the president's conduct of the war and concerned about the large U.S. military presence. Powell, in an interview broadcast Sunday in London, said he gave the advice to now retired Gen. Tommy Franks, who developed and executed the Iraq invasion plan, and Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld while the president was present. "I made the case to General Frankis and Secretary Rumsfeld before the president that I was not sure we had enough troops," Powell said in an interview on Britain's ITV television. "The case was made, it was listened to, it was considered. ... A judgment was made by those responsible that the troop strength was adequate." Rice said Bush "listened to the advice of his advisers and ultimately, he listened to the advice of his commanders." How else would you know I'm a KU fan? Creative cards, Check Cards. Gift Cards.

Thousands rally to spur action in Sudan BY ELIZABETH WHITE THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — Thousands of people joined celebrities and lawmakers at a rally Sunday urging the Bush administration to use its political muscle to help end genocide in Sudan's Darfur region. "Not on our watch," the crowd began chanting as a parade of speakers lined up for their turn on a stage on the National Mall, the Capitol serving as a backdrop. "The personal motivation for a lot of us is the Holocaust," said Boston-based Rabbi Or Rose of Jewish Seminarians for Justice. "Given our history and experience, we feel an obligation to stand up and speak out." The organizers' permit estimated a turnover of 10,000 to 15,000 for the rally, one of several planned in U.S. cities over the weekend over what the United Nations has termed the world's worst humanitarian disaster. "It is the socially responsible, good conscience thing to do," said Ron Fisher, who took a pre-dawn bus from Cleveland with his 15-year-old daughter Jordyn to attend the demonstration. "It an opportunity to show my daughter what people do when they care about something." The U.S. Park Police, which does not issue crowd estimates, reported no arrests. "It's a large crowd. I think they have a really good turnout," Sgt. Scott Fear said. The event attracted high-profile speakers from the worlds of "We need deeds,not words. They need to come to Darfur today, not tomorrow,because what is going on is a disaster."

Refugee Hassan Cober said he was forced to leave his family and flee Sudan four years ago after many were killed and raped in his village. He urged the U.S. and the United Nations to act quickly, saying he had no idea where his family was or if they were OK. "We need deeds, not words," said Cober, who now lives in Portland, Maine. "They need to come to Darfur today, not tomorrow, because what is going on is a disaster."

STATE BY JOHN MILBURN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS House revises education bill TOPEKA — A House committee axed $65 million Saturday from a Senate school finance plan, sending the revised bill to the House, where passage is far from certain. The new $401 million package assembled by the House Select Committee on School Finance would phase in funding over three years and make changes to a bill that senators approved 24-16 on Thursday. The package largely fol The package lows previous bills with where the dollars are spent, but it makes much smaller allotments to the state's 300 school districts. legislators must increase school spending to satisfy last year's Kansas Supreme Court order. It is the House's second attempt at a school finance plan this session. A coalition of moderate Republicans and Democrats pushed through a $633 million plan in March. One coalition leader said nothing appears to have changed to budge the group from its position. Senate President Steve Morris, R-Hugoton, said he was pleased that the committee acted because it pushed legislators closer to negotiating the final version of a school finance bill. "Certainly, there's nothing there to take votes away from the coalition," said Rep. Ward Loyd, R-Garden City. "Our intent is to reaffirm the school finance plan that was adopted by the House." Legislators must increase school spending to satisfy last year's Kansas Supreme Court order in a lawsuit filed in 1999 over how much the state spends on schools and how the funds are distributed. Rep. Kathe Decker, chairwoman of the school finance committee, said debate was expected on the plan Monday or Tuesday. Pass or fail, she expected to begin negotiations with senators to reach a compromise. Doing so would expedite the end of the wrap-up session, which began Wednesday. Decker said she thought the plan could have votes from some members of the coalition, in particular Johnson County moderates, who expressed support for a provision giving 17 districts with higher-than-average housing costs authority to raise additional local taxes "If not, we'll go to conference with what the Senate did," said Decker, R-Clay Center. All the proposals in play rely on existing state revenues for the next three years, though some budget projections point to problems funding the third year. And neither the House nor the Senate followed a cost study from the Legislative Division of Post Audit, presented on the session's first day in January. That study, required by the court, said the state should increase its share of education spending by as much as $470 million in the 2006-07 school year, then by $216 million in 2007-08 and $146 million in 2008-09. That is $832 million over three years. Democrats suggested that heftier spending increases for programs for students at risk of failing academically would address the crux of the court's 2005 ruling.

Graduate teaching assistants should not be able to hold on to their positions indefinitely. A 10-semester limit on GTA positions makes sense. Ten semesters, that's five years. If a graduate student can't get their degree in that amount of time, maybe giving up their positions would help them focus on school. GTA positions are a way to help graduate students get their degrees. The job offers money and aid for school but still keeps students in their departments. But the positions are means to an end: Getting a graduate degree. The limit tells students, "Hey, we want you to get a degree It's that simple. and we know it's expensive to do so. Here's a job that will help you pay for school and let you work at school. Unfortunately, you can only keep it for 10 semesters, an amount of time we think is reasonable for you to get your degree." The limit is necessary to allow for positions to open up for incoming graduate students. There are other options for students after having a GTA position. They can work as a graduate research assistant, a lecturer or take out student loans. These might not be as appealing as a GTA job, but they will get students through school. This is how school works. A student can't get an unlimited Issue: The 10-semester GTA limit Stance: Ten semesters is adequate time. Other options are available for students in need. scholarship, a student athlete can't play for unlimited years and a student can't have an unlimited amount of time on a test. So why should GTAs be able to work for an unlimited amount of time? Ten semesters is enough John Jordan for the editorial board Limit makes GTAs statistics Undergraduates are pushed to complete degrees in four years. Graduate students are limited to 10 semesters of GTA salary and tuition benefits. The limits are in place to increase the number of degrees the University cranks out every year. This serves to improve our standing in national rankings. The University of Kansas sends one clear message to all of its students: "Hurry up and finish." Unfortunately, such pressure to complete degrees only makes students unhappy, which also figures into national rankings. The national average time to complete a Ph.D-level program after attaining an undergraduate degree is seven years, according to the National Center for Education Statistics. The University offers ten semesters — five years — to its graduate teaching assistants. This limit was imposed only after the Graduate Teaching Assistant Coalition won its first contract. It seems retaliatory — rather than beneficial — in nature. This arbitrary limit not withstanding, graduate students in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences are afforded 20 semesters —10 years — to complete their degrees. After a GTAs eligibility to teach expires, he or she is forced to pay tuition, take a pay cut to teach as a lecturer and find alternate sources of income. The University is telling GTAs — students who take classes to learn how to teach in addition to their normal Issue: The 10-semester GTA limit Stance: The limit is arbitrary. The University needs GTAs more than they need it. course loads, students who grade papers, plan lessons and mentor undergraduates because the University doesn't have enough professors to do so, students who have twice the responsibility and contribute immensely to under-staffed departments — that they are only important as statistics in a national study. Patrick Ross, dissenting COMMENTARY Lawrence is what you make of it This is the last column of my collegiate career so to celebrate in a manner that is as self-serving as it is true, I give you this one final sentiment. ALEXANDER JUSTIN LAMORT opinion@kansan.com act of passing on a few tidbits of advice to those few who will remain at KU and purposely read the opinion page. Explore. Lawrence is more than the Bull, the Hawk and the Wheel. It is even more than Massachusetts Street. The town is full of festivities and quirky places waiting for some brave adventurer to discover. Every night there are events, lectures and parties of new people. Seek out fresh experiences instead of reliving the same continuous cycle with the same circle of friends. In the last month I've seen a man juggle fire in a parking lot, saved a parrot from a hail storm and been in awe at some of the amazing people who live in our community. Just because you're in college doesn't mean you should stop taking field trips. Create. Lawrence is in the top 12 cities of artists per capita according to the National Endowment of the Arts. The New York Times called us, "the most vital music scene between Chicago and Denver." Don't take for granted the opportunities that living here affords us. Gallery openings, slam poetry and local bands help make this city what it is. More importantly we can be a part of it. Do you take pictures? Then have an exhibition at a downtown coffee shop. Play a guitar? Form a band, get on KJHK's rotation and become part of the Lawrence tradition. Like writing? The Kansan, Kiosk, Comma Splice and a host of others could get you published before you decide being an author is impractical. Make the world a better place. "They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself," claimed Andy Warhol. He was right. Problems abound in our world but so do solutions. While some issues are complex with no clear answer in sight, there are many where the answer is right in front of us. Sometimes people are afraid of change. Sometimes a small group profits from the problem who'd rather not see it go away. This is where power becomes important. Most movements arise when one person decides to make a difference and is joined by others until an avalanche comes crashing down upon the status quo. Its one thing to complain about what is wrong in the world but it is much more important to go do something about it. When Mohandas Gandhi said, "be the change that you want to see in the world," it wasn't just idle speculation. It was a call to arms for activism over apathy that changed the world. In the college classroom I learned how to learn. Outside the lecture is where my real education took place. Our time at the University is short so don't waste it being boring in front of a flickering screen. Don't limit yourself to doing only what you know. Get out and explore, create and make the world a better place. It sure beats the alternatives. LaMort is a Cherryvale senior in psychology and political science.

HEEBBIDA HUBBIDA BUBBIDA BOO TONY SNOW POLICIES COMMENTARY Family crucial to successful college career College has been a wild ride where a lot has happened. Just about everything that has taken place here will remain important to me forever. One thing, however, stands out more than any other. It has taken four years for me to realize exactly how important family is in the life of a college student. I know that if my family were not there for me when I needed it, I would not be the person I am today. I know that I could not have handled coming to college by myself. While some people were excited about finally being free from their parents' rules, all I was thinking about was how was I going to do this on my own. It was very difficult for me and I am so thankful that I had people to talk me through this very difficult transition. I love my family very much. They provide me with the inspiration to do everything I am capable of. This is why it hurts me to hear some people talk about the difficulties they might have with their families. I understand that people can get upset with one another NEIL SPECTOR opinion@hansan.com about various things, but there is always room for forgiveness. People who can say that they hate certain members of their family need to take a closer look at what they have just said. They have expressed hate for the people that not only have brought them into the world, but possibly those people who helped keep them in it. No matter what family members say to one another, no matter how horrible or mean, there is always love there. Family will always support each other through the tough times. Families also are there through the good times. When you bring home an "A" paper or if Saturday's date was a great success, you want to share those good feelings with the ones you love. It is rare to find people who can be a shoulder to cry on as well as people who you can simply shoot the breeze with. We are all so lucky to have a group of people whom we can rely on. A family can consist of several different people, like a mother or father, brother or sister, aunt or uncle, grandparents or cousins. Family can also be your friends, or anyone else you meet that you feel you can trust. Only one constant is necessary, they all have to be people who care for you. My family consists of anyone who cares about me because I also care about them, Think about how much your family gives you on a daily basis. How are we so lucky to have that? Family makes life interesting and worthwhile, they are the driving force behind a lot of what is done when a student is in school. I trust them with my life and they trust me with theirs. When I look to the future, can only hope that all students see that their families will always be there for them, no matter the grades they get or if they are accepted into a great graduate school. I look back on my time here and see that the most important accomplishment is not my GPA or anything else academic. It is the realization that why I am here is because all of the people that care about me. They know who they are.

Filling in for alling catchers Buck Afenir and Dylan Parzyk, Spitzfaden has started the last four games, hitting .416 with two triples, three RBI and three runs scored in that time and raising his average to .350 on the season. Spitzfaden earns praise BY SHIMN SHOYER shsroyer@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER On the surface, the eleventh triple by a Kansas hitter this season was insignificant. It came in the second inning and drove in Kansas' final run of its 17-2 loss to Oklahoma in game one of Sunday's doubleheader. What was significant about the hit was it came from freshman catcher Andrew Spitzfaden. That kind of production is what Kansas has been missing from the catching position. "The big thing was he didn't hurt us and then he even contributed with the bat, which we didn't expect to have happen at all," Kansas coach Ritch Price said. "Overall, he was really special for us this weekend." After the Creighton game, freshman left-hander Nick Czyz's name was in the headlines with a one-hit, seven-inning performance, but even he was more impressed with Spitzfaden's day than his own. The interesting thing about Spitzfaden is that, until last week, he was behind freshman Buck Afenir and junior Dylan Parzyk on the depth chart. But Afenir caught the mumps on Tuesday and帕zyk was already out with a sprained ankle, so Spitzfaden got his first start as a Jayhawk Wednesday against Creighton. duction at the plate and composure behind the plate. Spitzfaden went 2-for-4 with an RBI and caught three different pitchers in the combined one hitter. Czvz praised Spitzfaden for his pro- In the second game on Sunday, senior right-hander Kodikai Quick threw 6.1 innings and only allowed two runs with Spitzfaden behind the plate. He, too, had nothing but good things to say about Spitzfaden. "Dylan's really good, Buck's really good and I thought Spitz did an extremely good job of coming in," Quick said. "I have no complaints at all." Spitzfaden was in the starting line-up on Saturday and went hitless, but still found a way to be productive in the seventh inning. After hitting Spitzfaden with a pitch, Oklahoma starter Daniel McCutchen was pulled from the game, allowing the rest of the Kansas offense to tee off on Oklahoma relievers. Spitzfaden then advanced to second on a single by sophomore outfielder Brock Simpson and scored on a single by senior shortstop Ritchie Price. The run was one of three the Jayhawks scored that inning in their comeback attempt on Saturday. Even with the two triples, Spitz- faden didn't claim to be a speedster on the base paths. "I've got to hit 'em pretty far and somebody's got to fall down for me to get all the way to third base, it seems like." Spitzfaden said. Before the emergence of Spitz- "Dylan's really good, Buck's really good and I thought Spitz did an extremely good job of coming in." Kodiak Quick Senior pitcher faden, Kansas' regular starters Afenir and Parzyk weren't providing much production on offense from the position. The two combined for a 204 batting average, nine extra base hits including four home runs, 14 RBI and 36 strikeouts in 147 at-bats. In four games as a starter, Spitzfaden has gone 5-for-12, which translates to a .417 average, with three runs and three RBI Despite his stellar play this week, Spitzfaden has braced himself in case his name isn't on the lineup card the next time Kansas takes the field. "I show up to the ballpark ready to play every day, but if I'm there, I'm there, if I'm not, I'm going to be supporting whoever's back there," Spitzfaden said. — Edited by Hayley Travis BASEBALL Comeback doesn't save the day BY ALISSA BAUER abauer@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Bags of quick dry were dumped and spread around the base paths in between innings of the 11-9 Oklahoma victory against Kansas on Saturday. The field wasn't able to take both games. Game two of the doubleheader was canceled because of rain. "The fact that we battled back — we're getting our rear ends kicked, that's about as poorly as we've pitched all year," Kansas coach Ritch Price said. "To battle back and then have the chance to win the lead, I was proud of them. I think it makes the loss even worse, to be honest with you." Oklahoma led 8-0 before Kansas came back and tied the game. The Sooners played with complete disregard of the Jayhawks' 14-2 record at home. Oklahoma is on a streak of its own — it won its 12th straight game on Saturday. By the middle of the fourth inning, only one Sooner was hitless. The other eight hitters in the lineup used a rocky outing by junior Sean Land to put up seven runs in the opening four innings. In the top of the fifth inning, Oklahoma led. 8-0. The Sooners had 11 hits. The Jayhawks had none. But as the rain fell, so did Oklahoma's guard. Despite the loss, Kansas mounted an unbelievable comeback witnessed by the handful of fans still at the game. In the bottom of the fifth, the Jayhawks found the bats against dominant starter Daniel McCutchen. Senior infielder Jared Schweitzer hit his eighth home run of the season, and sophomore outfielder Brock Simpson hit a two-run double off the left field wall. Senior outfielder Matt Baty scored on a single from Schweitzer in the sixth, cutting the Sooners's lead in half. Freshman first baseman Preston Land trimmed the lead again in the bottom of the seventh, with a home run over the left field wall. The solo shot marked Land's eighth of the season, the most ever by a KU freshman. "I didn't expect it of myself but I wanted it," Land said about the record. "I knew if I got the opportunity to play, I wanted it." Senior outfeilder Gus Milner had an opportunity in the ninth inning to tie the game. His clutch single to left field knocked in senior shortstop Ritchie Price. "I if I had another opportunity I was going to try to either tie it or hopefully win it," Milner said. "I was just trying to do my job in the four-hole and I'm just glad I did to try and keep the game going." A pair of 10th-inning Oklahoma solo home runs went unanswered in the bottom half of the inning. Oklahoma held off the KU comeback. "I thought it was a great game," Milner said. "It came down to the wire. I enjoyed it, it's just too bad that they had to win." Baseball CONTINUED FROM PAGE 12A — Edited by Hayley Travis "When we have everybody on the field, you're going to have a couple of guys go 0-for-4." Price said. "As long as you're got your upper six guys getting a couple of friends." or knocks, you'll be fine." In the bottom of the fifth, senior infielder Jared Schweitzer started the rally. Schweitzer's solo shot in the fifth inning of the first game also kicked off the Jayhawk scoring attack. His base hit to first sparked the glad to get things going." In game two, Kansas lost 17-2. The second game of the series and the first half of the Sunday doubleheader, looked much like game one on Saturday. I think we try to stay positive about it, I think that shows some character about our team. We played well and we weren't down on ourselves. Sometimes that's baseball." Already leading by one to Jared Schweitzer Senior infielder 'Hawks and, excluding a freshman first baseman Presston Land strikeout, a streak of five straight hits. "It's been a bunch of guys being rally starters," Schweitzer said. "It doesn't necessarily have to start with the first two-three guys in our lineup. Our lineup's pretty deep right now, so I'm start the game, the Sooners wasted no time racking up some more. In fact, after picking up the game in the top of the second because of Saturday's game two rainouts, Oklahoma went on to score in the next innings. But even going three scoreless innings in the last half of the game wouldn't deter the Sooners from hanging 17 runs on the jayhawks, outing the boys in blue 25-9. Kansas couldn't put a rally together, even though it tallied nine hits, including sophomore third baseman Erik Morrison's 11th home run of the season in the bottom of the second. Attempting to keep pace, Kansas hit at least a single in all but three innings. Despite Oklahoma's 28 runs scored in the first two match-ups, none of them were because of errors as the Jayhawk defense committed just one error in the first two games. "I think we try to stay positive about it," Schweitzer said. "I think that shows some character about our team. We played well and we weren't down on ourselves. Sometimes that's baseball." Senior right-hander Ricky Fairchild (5-5) didn't make it out of the fourth. He took the loss, allowing six runs on six hits in his 3.1 innings of work. Fairchild's senior-handed counterpart, Oklahoma's Steven Guerra (9-1) picked up the victory, Oklahoma's 13th in a row, surrendering two runs off seven Kansas hits. The Jayhawks lost the first game of the series 11-9 in 10 innings. - Edited by Janiece Gatson Check Us Out At: www.tuckawaymgmt.com Tuckaway Hawker Harper Square Hutton Farms 838-3377/841-3339 Tuckaway at Briarwood CASHCA$HCASHCA$H CA$HCASHCA$HCASH CASHCA$HCASHCA$H CA$HCASHCA$HCASH RST NOW THRU FINALS MORE OF IT.

Second place splash at Invitational BY DANIEL C. WIEXELDORFER dweixeldorfer@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER The Kansas rowing team tied for second place in the Big 12 Rowing Invitational in Kansas City, Kan., on Sunday. Family members and fans gathered from Kansas, Texas and Kansas State assembled early for the event despite the bad weather and windy conditions. Kansas, who tied Kansas State, played host to the event, which rotates locations every year. The Jayhawks ended with a final point total of 44, while the Texas Longhorns finished in first place with a total of 56 points. Kansas coach Rob Catloth, in his 11th season as head coach of the team, said he was proud of his team's performance. "We wanted everyone to go out and perform well and we think we did that," Catloth said. "I told my team that champions give their most effort and do the best they can." The hard-fought match gave the Jayhawks perspective THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 7A on how they compared with the Big 12 competition. The Jayhawks faced No. 18 Minnesota last weekend. Catloth said the tough schedule for the Jayhawks had been helpful in preparation for the end of the year. "I was really proud of how hard we raced and how hard we fought," Catloth said. "We handled the conditions well and we are trying to get up there to compete at the highest level." The Jayhawks had the advantage of facing both of Sunday's opponents before the Big 12 Invitational. In a previous match up this season, Texas dominated Kansas. Kansas State traveled to Lawrence for the Kansas Cup and beat the Jayhawks on April 8. It was revenge for the Wildcats against the Jayhawks, who won the Sunflower Showdown last fall. Though winning the Big 12 Invitational was an important goal to the Jayhawks, team members said they would learn from falling short in the match. "We fought hard and we are going to stay positive. This was most likely our hardest fought match and for good reason," said senior Kris Lazar. The Big 12 Invitational was the last match in Kansas for the Jayhawks. The team banquet will be held this weekend and the team will travel to the NCAA South/Central Regional match in Oak Ridge, Tenn., on May 13 and 14. "We are going to train as hard as we can for the next two weeks. We have one of the toughest Central regions there is so we just want to do the best we can and go from there," Lazar said. Kansan Classifieds... 20% discount for students Seniors Lazar and Jennifer Ebel will guide the team through the next few weeks to prepare for what traditionally has proved to be one of the biggest matches of the year. The team aims to build on each match and put everything together for a run late at the end of the year. "We are going to train very hard for two weeks and peak at the right time for our match coming up," Ebel said.

Former Jayhawk David McMillan, who is now with the Cleveland Browns, made a similar transition moving from defensive end to outside linebacker two years ago. - Edited by Janiece Gatson Softball CONTINUED FROM PAGE 124 The Jayhawks were under pressure early in the second game when Oklahoma got on the board in the second inning. Catcher Susan Ogden started the Sooner attack by singling to centerfield and then advancing to third on second baseman Stacia Aleman's base hit. Lefftelle Norrille Dickson then hit a single to drive in Ogden to give Oklahoma a lead it would never relinquish. The Sooners later added three runs in the fifth inning to increase their advantage to four. For the game, Humphreys gave up eight hits, the second most she had given up all season. She also gave up four earned runs, the most she had allowed since the Missouri game in Columbia three weeks ago. Oklahoma's Nicole Denes was almost unhittable. The senior right-hander pitched the full seven innings and struck out six, while allowing only three hits. Denes' only miscue came in the seventh inning, when senior shortstop Destiny Frankenstein blasted a Denes' pitch for a home run. Denes settled down afterward and retired the next three Kansas batters to finish the game. On Wednesday, Kansas will play host to in-state rival Wichita State for a doubleheader.

Though you might overindulge or get a binge of something, you feel a much deeper level. Think positively about a key associate, Tonight; Say yes to a special friend. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ***** A positive attitude flourishes through your work. You have no way of handling a personal matter but to let others have their head.

There was rain. There was unusually bad hitting. But worst of all, Kassie Humphreys didn't have one of her outstanding performances that has become routine for the Kansas soffball team during the last month. "I felt like I struggled more than usual," Humphreys said. "I wasn't able to get ahead in the count. It seemed like I was playing their game rather than playing my own." The junior pitcher's struggles on the mound allowed Oklahoma to hit the way to a 4-1 victory in the second game of a double-header on Sunday. Kansas dropped wasn't able to wash it able to get ahead in the count. It seemed like I was playing their game rather than playing my own." Kasie Humphreys junior pitcher the first game of the double header to the Sooners, 2-0. For Kansas, the losses could prove costly for postseason play. Before the game the Jayhawks (27-24, 6-10) were fifth place in the conference. With Sunday's two losses, Kansas dropped to seventh place behind Missouri and Oklahoma. If the Jayhawks remain in seventh, they will play an elimination game on the first day of the Big 12 Tournament, and play the second place team if they win their first game. "This loss really hurt us," Humphreys said. "It puts a lot of pressure on us for postseason opportunities." SEE SOFTBALL ON PAGE 8A BASEBALL K Senior pitcher Kodiak Quick delivers against Oklahoma in the second game at Hoglund Ballpark on Sunday. Quick helped the Jayhawks avoid a sweep at the hands of the Sooners by pitching six and one-third innings, allowing two runs on six hits, walking one batter and striking out two. 'Hawks rained out BY ALISSA BAUER abauer@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER The tarp made a two-minute appearance in the midst of a 15-minute rain delay to break up the sixth inning in Sunday's 7-5 series finale victory against Oklahoma. It was the tarp's shortest outing of the series. "I think we're going to be the best tarp team in America after this season," freshman catcher Andrew Spitzfaden, who went 3-for-6 with a pair of triples on Sunday, said. The heavy rainfall that pushed game one, scheduled for Friday, to be the first game of a Saturday doubleheader and that eventually forced games two and three to a Sunday doubleheader as the rain came down again on Sunday afternoon. Rain fell hard enough that the umpires and coaches decided to call the rain delay, but just minutes later, it let up. The Jayhawk players and grounds crew pulled the tarp back off the field and resumed play. But as the rain stopped, the lavihawk offense didn't. The Jayhawks (32-18, 10-11) eventually snapped the Sooners' (35-11, 13-5) 13-game win streak in the process. "That's a huge game for us," coach Ritch Price said. "As far as I'm concerned it saved our season. That gives us the chance to go to Texas. We win the series we're back to .500. Or if we just avoid getting swept at Texas, we're right in the NCAA tournament." For the first time in the series, Kansas was able to step to the plate without facing a deficit. Oklahoma right fielder Chuckie Caufield led off the top of the first, tagging senior right-hander Kodiak Quick's (8-3) first pitch of the game for a double to left, but he would stay at second. Taking advantage of Oklahoma's scoring lull, Kansas exploded in the fifth. Although the Sooner pitching staff kept the Jayhawks off the board for the first game, the Jayhawks figured it out.

Charles Gordon, Charlton Keith, Nick Reid and Mark Simmons all went undrafted in the 2006 NFL draft, which took place Saturday and Sunday. Gordon, projected as high as a fourth round pick, never got a phone call from an NFL team during the draft. However, he did sign as an undrafted free agent with the Minnesota Vikings after the draft Sunday. f he ran a 4.49 instead of a 4.59, he would have been drafted on day one." Kenny Zuckerman Charles Gordon's agent According to the Kansas City Star, Simmons signed Sunday with the San Diego Chargers and Reid said he expected to sign with the Kansas City Chiefs as soon as his agent could work out a deal with the team. Keith also signed Sunday, joining the Cleveland Browns. He turned down an offer from the Kansas City Chiefs so he could be closer to his hometown of Akron, Ohio. Gordon, a cornerback and wide receiver for the Jayhawks, decided to forgo his senior season and enter the draft. enter the draft His agent, Kenny Zuckerman, said Sunday that he still thought Gordon made the right decision to enter the draft. "A lot of people make a big deal about leaving early," Zuckerman said. "But he was ready for the next challenge." Zuckerman said Gordon's 40-yard dash time was the main reason Gordon's stock fell. “If he ran a 4.49 instead of a 4.59, he would have been drafted on day one,” Zuckerman said. “He was going to be the same speed next year.” The question of where Gordon would play — offense or defense — was another factor in his decision to forgo his senior season. Zuckerman said it was frustrating for Gordon to switch back and forth between wide receiver, cornerback and special teams at Kansas. "He felt if he played one position,he would be able to get to a much higher level," Zuckerman said. Zuckerman said after the fifth round, it was probably better to go undrafted and sign with a team whose roster the player had a better opportunity to make.

Kansas defeated Colorado, but lost to No. 5 Baylor in Waco, Texas. Kansas did not receive an automatic bid to the NCAA Championships and will have to wait and see if their 14-11 regular season record was enough to gain one of the 33 at-large spots.

Kansas faced Colorado, the No. 9 seed in the tournament, on Thursday. April 15. The Jayhawks were down 3-0, facing elimination, but victories in singles matches by freshman Edina Horvath, sophomore Liza Avdeeva and senior Christine Skoda tied up the match at 3-3. This set up the final match between freshman Stephanie Smith and Martina Sedivec to determine the winner. Ian Halperin/Big 12 Conference Smith won her match in three sets, 6-3, 2-6, 6-2, to give Kansas the victory. "We came out slow in doubles, but we hung in there." Kansas coach Amy Hall-Holt said. "We had a lot of fight and guts, and it paid off. It's what we've been working for all semester." Smith said she welcomed the pressure of playing in the deciding singles match. "It was awesome, it's fun playing when your whole team gets out there and cheers for you and it comes down to your match," Smith said. Kansas then faced Baylor in the quarterfinals. Because of the threat of severe weather, the match was moved to noon. The format of the match was changed as well. Instead of playing the doubles matches first, the singles matches were played first. match was called as soon as Baylor jumped out to a 4-0 lead because the other matches would not have changed the outcome.

Jeanette Stauffer, Martin's mother, spent the first two-and-a-half years trying to put Martin's murderers in prison. Now, since the convictions in 2003, she continues to travel to Costa Rica, opposing the convicted's appeals and keeping them incarcerated with the help of two dedicated investigators. Staiffer and her team returned last month to Golftifo for the second appeal of Martin's convicted murderers, Kattia Cruz and Luis Alberto Castro. She said that the appeal was "the most difficult of all the testimony I have given at the trial or any of the hearings." She told the court during the hearing how on Mother's Day in 2001, she received a phone call informing her of Shannon's murder.

Athletics Department says it's made progress BY ERIC JORGENSEN ejorgensen@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER On Aug. 13, the University of Kansas will go before the NCAA committee on infractions in Baltimore. Then the NCAA will decide what penalties, if any, to add to those Chancellor Robert Hemenway imposed on the University in July. What will the NCAA do? "I learned a long time ago that it doesn't do anyone any good to predict what the committee would do," said Associate Athletics Director Jim Marchiony. "The NCAA best course of action is to proceed through the process and let the process carry you through." Marchiony said the committee could just accept the self-imposed punishments, including probation, set forth by Hemenway. It could also add punishments not created by the University. The allegation of "lack of institutional control" was a new violation the NCAA announced on April 21. That was not in the self-report conducted by the University. Considering this allegation, there is no telling wither the NCAA will penalize the University. On April 6, the NCAA punished both Cal State and Fresno State basketball with four years of probation after labeling them with lack of institutional control. Within that allegation was the charge that coaches and staffs from the two programs made phone calls to recruits in violation of NCAA rules. Because most of the allegations against the University happened before Lew Perkins took over as athletics director in 2003, the department has made what it thinks are the adequate corrections. It has added personnel and increased compliance education.

Richard Heckler, a member of the commission, said both proposed ordinances had problems.

ODDS AND ENDS Who did it? Ghost or light system? FLEMINGTON, N.J. — Some employees who work in the Hunterdon County Courthouse in Flemington say the ghost of Bruno Hauptmann is flipping on the courthouse's lights each night. The peculiar happenings have been going on since renovations started months ago to make the courthouse look like it did in 1935, when Hauptmann was convicted there of kidnapping and killing the tender son of Charles Lindbergh. "It's Hauptmann's ghost," Cindy Yard, county administrator, said. But county architect Frank Bell said the courthouse's new electricity system was the likely culprit. The renovation included sensors that shut off the lights when no one was in those areas of the building. They are infrared sensors and it's a very sensitive system that reacts when air currents shift from a heating or cooling system starting up, Bell said.

LAWRENCE Interviews being done to determine fire's cause Lawrence-Douglas County Fire and Medical is still investigating the cause of the fire Friday evening at Southpoint Apartments, 2136 W. 26th St. Fire Chief Mark Bradford said the department was still conducting interviews to determine the cause. One of those interviews will be with the resident of the apartment where the fire started who went to the hospital with burns. The condition of the resident, who neighbors identified as a KU student, is still unknown. Bradford said he did not have the resident's name. Bradford said the damage was contained to the one apartment where the fire started. He said there was, however, moderate smoke damage to a few surrounding apartments as well as water damage to one unoccupied apartment below. There was no estimate on the cost of damages Monday. All residents were able to return to their apartments that same evening.

Members of a U.S. Coast Guard boarding crew help unload confiscated fish from the Delfin IV, Monday., in Port Isabel, Texas. The Delfin IV was boarded Sunday, about 40 miles offshore from Padre Island national Seashore. The bust was an effort by Texas Parks and Wildlife, U. S. Coast Guard and The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The boat carried about 9,400 pounds of fish that included red snapper, grouper and tilefish. The season for red snapper did not open until Monday, so the red snapper was an illegal catch. The other fish were used to conceal the red snapper and the whole catch was considered illegal.

She said her personal experience taught her the importance of showing compassion to victims. "Many times a victim will get so discouraged and feel everything's hopeless," she said. "At that point, I may decide to share my experience with them. How it took a long time, but finally justice prevailed."

HOUSTON — Enron Corp. founder Kenneth Lay received a barrage of written warnings from employees questioning the energy giant's accounting integrity in the fall of 2001 but said Monday that he was too busy trying to save the company to investigate. Prosecutor John Hueston, in his third day of cross-examination, sought to show that Lay ignored warnings of accounting impropriety and financial doom after resuming as chief executive upon the resignation of co-defendant Jeffrey Skilling from that role in mid-August 2001. Enron, once the seventh-largest company in the U.S., filed for bankruptcy protection in December. Yet in November 2001, with Enron's stock and reputation already in the tank, Lay told employees he could "not have ever contemplated" what lay ahead for the company and its stockholders. As he did last week, Lay bristled and bickered, claiming he had received positive information along with negative. One warning came in October 2001 via an e-mail from Jim Schwieger, a longtime trader, three days after Lay announced a massive third-quarter loss and a $1.2 billion writedown in shareholder equity. Cell phones Several commission members were concerned about enforceability and will discuss it after the language is reworked in July. "I don't feel like we have the resources to monitor an outright ban in the city," John Ziegelmeyer Ir. chair of the Traffic Safety Commission, said. Ziegelmeyer said that his main concern was that a cell phone ban should be a state issue rather than a city issue. If the commission approves any version of the ordinance, it will then go to the City Commission for approval. The issue of cell phone bans was first raised at a Traffic Safety Commission meeting in October when a member of the community requested a ban on cell phone usage while driving. — Edited by Vanessa Pearson THIS WEEK ON CAMPUS May 2, 2006 KU Hillel presents...

AMC, second only to Knoxville, Tenn.-based Regal Entertainment Group, operates 418 theaters with 5,709 screens. Peter Brown, chief executive of Kansas Citybased AMC, said economics have finally made it feasible for the major chains to begin carrying the smaller films that often are high on critical appeal, but don't make a lot of money. "I think it's really a kind of supply and demand." Brown said in an interview, noting that more distributors are carrying the independent films while the market for aged 40 and over moviegoers, who make up a large portion of that market, is growing in terms of ticket sales. The biggest chain now consistently carrying independent films is Los Angeles-based Landmark Theaters, which has 57 theaters and 213 screens in 15 states.

Pilar Cabral and her nephew Jules Sotomayor,6, hold the Mexican flag while niece Ella Sotomayor,3, plays underneath during the protest at 9th and Massachutts streets Monday afternoon.

Ray Rojas, one of the coordinators of the event, said the candlelight vigil was a way to get people involved in demonstrations that did not necessarily want to miss school or work but still wanted to participate. He said the candlelight symbolized peace and the message of unifying people in the fight for equal rights. people in Africa. The civil rights that immigrants are fighting for today bears a comparison to the civil rights that African-Americans fought for during the 1960s, Rojas said. 1960s, Rojas said. "They want to prevent you from going to school, getting any medical services, from voting. They want to prevent you from doing a lot of things," Rojas said. "And they do that in the name of immigration, which is just a fagace for the racism surrounding the issue." Roijes, León and other organization leaders of the event passed around a petition asking Kansas Representatives Moore and Jim Ryun and senators Pat Roberts and Sam Brownback to help immigrant workers and protect their individual rights. The protestors chanted "Si se puede," which translates as "Yes we can," to passerby cars and speakers from numerous organizations promoted a message of unity, inclusion in both English and Spanish.

The unfortunate reality is that while the city fought hard, it wasn't enough. The city was armed with little more than a claim that Wal-Mart was a department store, not a variety store, and therefore did not fit the zoning laws for the site at Sixth Street and Wakarusa Drive. Wal-Mart, the largest owner and manager of retail space in the country, had inexhaustible funds to use for legal battles and a precedent of building whenever and wherever it pleased. After thousands of dollars of tax payer money spent by the city to stave off the corporation's seven law suits, the city had no choice but to reach a settlement with Wal-Mart. No one knows the exact amount, but by the end of 2003, the city already had spent $35,000. In the end, an agreement was made stating that in the next six months plans for a smaller-scale, aesthetically-pleasing store will be submitted and, upon approval, the law suits will be dismissed and a court trial avoided. And what has anyone gained from the whole experience? Having the ability to drive to the store five minutes faster for a $3 gallon of pickles. Those who argue in Issue: The City Commission's recent decision to compromise with WalMart Stance: The city fought admirably, but it was only a matter of time before the retail behemoth got its way. favor of the store say competition is the basis of capitalism and that Wal-Mart simply has a successful business model. But this argument neglects issues such as ethical business practices. We may not personally know the employees of Wal-Mart's suppliers who get laid off because the company can't handle the prices they are forced to sell their goods. We may not hear about the Wal-Mart employees who can't afford a doctor's visit because they don't receive health care. But it does happen all the time. So the next time you buy that cheap pack of Oreos from Wal-Mart, ask yourself, is it really worth it? As the city knows, it's not easy to do what's right, but it's worth fighting for. Malinda Osborne for the editorial board LETTER TO THE EDITOR Details of Schiavo's death deserve recap I would like to thank KU Students For Life for bringing Bobby Schindler to campus last week. Please know that those who were there were affected by what he had to say. For those of you who were not there, I would like to summarize Schindler's talk. First, although Terri Schiavo's case was very much a pro-life issue, it was also very much a disability rights issue. Media coverage tended to focus its attention on the support given by pro-life groups, but failed to give adequate coverage to the more than 25 local and national disability rights groups that also supported Schiavo's family in their fight to keep Terri's feeding tube intact. The media also tended to focus on the fact that Terri was considered to be in a persistent vegetative state (PVS), a prognosis that is very subjective and misdiagnosed 43 percent of the time, according to Schindler. The definition of PVS only requires that a patient have no meaningful interaction with her environment. It doesn't take much imagination to consider how widely "meaningful interaction" can be interpreted. Imagine that all of the death row inmates in this country had a 43 percent chance of being innocent. I think it is obvious there would be an uprour about the injustice of such a possibility. Let us go further and imagine that the attorney representing those death row inmates was also the judge hearing their cases. This is what happened to Terri Schiavo. She was appointed an attorney who just happened to be the judge who heard her case. I would like to clarify one thing about Terri's condition. She was not on life support. She required no assistance to keep her heart pumping or her lungs breathing. What she did require was nourishment provided by a feeding tube because of her inability to swallow due to brain injury. Furthermore, there is no substantial evidence that Terri would have wanted to die this way. She had no written directive or living will, only the word of her husband, who did not mention any of Terri's wishes until 1998 — eight years after her collapse. By this time, he was already cohabitating with another woman after swearing under oath to care for Terri through sickness and in health. I cannot pretend to know Michael Schiavo's motives, but I do believe that Schindler and his family are sincere in their fight against the euthanasia movement. Their organization, the Terri Schindler Schiavo Foundation, is not for profit. All fees paid by KU Students For Life to bring Schindler here went directly to the organization. If a society is judged by how it treats its weakest members, then the United States is failing. As Schindler stated, the majority of Americans may have believed that it was right to remove Terri's feeding tube, but 100 percent of Terri's family did not want her to die. All they wanted was to be given the responsibility of caring for her for the rest of her life when it became obvious that her husband would not.

I WANT TO REPORT SOME OBSCENE PROGRAMMING... 2006 BRANCH SAN ANTONIO EXPRESS NEWS BIG OIL PROFITS I love Central America. The people are friendly, the scenery is amazing, and traveling around is always an adventure. I would recommend a trip to Central America to anyone. on a zip line. They expect to see volcanoes, beaches and all the "postcard" creatures — parrots, monkeys, tree frogs, ocelots, and iguanas — during a week's vacation, all the while relishing in the luxuries of home. COMMENTARY Maybe that is the problem I first visited the region in 2000 and have returned six times since. Each time, I relish in the natural and cultural wonders of the area while I'm surprised by how much changes, thanks to travelers just like myself. Maybe that's the problem. I fear that these countries are losing their essence — the culture and the places that make them distinct — while they find greater and greater economic success. I can appreciate Central Americans' complaints of ugly Americans who travel to their lands without ever coming to appreciate them for what they really are. The blame rests on both sides of the equation. As long as we continue to demand that our trips to Central America be more like a guided tour at the zoo, there will be locals who compromise the natural and cultural heritage of these areas to reap profits. The countries of Central America are much less developed than the United States. What we would consider disrepair in terms of buildings, roads, sidewalks and vehicles is deemed normal and totally acceptable there. There is a general sense that both individuals and society as a whole cannot afford the luxury of improvement. You'd think that any opportunity for economic development, regardless of what it is, would be welcomed. I'll continue to suggest Central America as a travel destination, but I'll be sure that my recommendation is to experience it for what it really is. There is a world of fascinating people and beautiful scenery to behold. We can contribute to the support of ecotourism over industrialism without insisting that our destination simply be a small version of the United States. So, you have to hand it to places like Costa Rica that are taking advantage of ecotourism. Countries looking to pull themselves out of the Third World often tap into their natural resources by harvesting them or paving over them, and it takes a bit of foresight to consider nature as an industry itself. Granted, some areas of Costa Rica are being developed rapidly, but others are being preserved to attract tourists. York is a graduate student in ecology and evolutionary biology. P HEATHER YORK opinion@kansan.com Nonetheless, in order for people to embrace the preservation of nature with an eye on economic development, the "eco" can't be separated from the "tourism". Along with the advent of ecotourism has come the increase of things that are just too American. Every time I visit, it seems that Central America has more U.S. food franchises, hotels and casinos; more billboards in English, and more things to attract the Spring Break-minded rather than the nature hike minded. A stroll through untouched rainforest is not enough. Tourists now want to cruise through the canopy PAGE 5A Its increasing popularity as a vacation destination illustrates the success of ecotourism there and has been serving as an example for its less-developed neighbors. For example, Nicaragua now offers financial incentives for the establishment of property related to tourism. I applaud this. The natural areas of Central America are beautiful but endangered and deserve all the preservation efforts they can get. Ecotourism just may be the answer.

SUBMISSIONS COMMENTARY Families struggle for closure "Closure, in my view, is an over-rated word for families that suffer those tragic losses," said Larry Thomas, assistant director, KBI Special Operations. In talking with the family of Shannon Martin during the past few weeks, I heard wonderful and funny stories about her underscored by the loss that is still present in their lives. BENNIE JOHNSON COURTNEY FARR opinion@kansan.com Though I may never understand their loss, I do empathize with it. My older brother, Justin Farr, died of a drug overdose almost nine years ago. His death still shapes and affects decisions I make today. "People think...that we've found closure," said Staci Wolfe, Shannon's older sister. "We all, my mom and my sister (Sher) and I will talk about how that's the dumbest thing we've ever heard." In 2003, I traveled to Costa Rica on study abroad. Justin's death fueled part of that semester. So many of his dreams and goals went unfulfilled. I didn't want to miss out on my own dreams. "It's worse today than it was the first year, the second year, the third year, the fourth year," said Jeanette Stauffer, Shannon's mother. "I think of all the things that Shannon would have been able to do and I miss her more." I met Stauffer in Costa Rica. I went to Golffor several days and attended the opening of the murder trial. When I met Stauffer, I saw a reflection of my own mother: the grief, the desire to understand, and the good recollections of a child now gone. "When justice is done, that's some satisfaction (for victim's families), but they still have a hole in their heart and that hole will never be filled," said Thomas. "I tagged along with her my whole life. Part of me died when I heard she was murdered," said Sheri Martin, Shannon's younger sister. "But part of her has been absorbed into me. I can't tell when one begins and the other ends." "This word closure absolutely drives me nuts," she said. "There's no closure until I'm six feet under." My older brother was my hero growing up. He was just too cool. Wolfe said she sees people all the time who were touched by Shannon: friends, people she worked with, students from organizations Shannon was in. During Christmas, she said she saw five of Shannon's closest friends. Last week, I went with Wolfe to Shannon's grave. I had never seen a headstone like it. Engravings cover each side. Shannon with her dog, Brutus. A Monarch butterfly. "It was really affirming," she said. "You can just tell there is a little bit of Shannon in them." Wolfe planted flowers around the headstone. At one point, she paused with her hands buried in the dirt "Shannon taught me that you really have to pack in the dirt," she said. "So I was listening to her." Farr is a Scott City senior in journalism. General questions should be directed to the editor at editor at kansan.com.

ALVARO ZUAZO THE ASSOCIATED PRESS the entire chain of productions Morales sent soldiers and engineers with Boliv- LA PAZ, Bolivia — President Evo Morales ordered soldiers to occupy Bolivia's natural gas fields Monday and threatened to evict foreign companies unless they gave Bolivia control over the entire chain of production. Morales sent soldiers andia's state-owned oil company to installations and fields tapped by foreign companies — including Britain's BG Group PLC and BP PLC, Brazil's Petroleo Brasileiro SA, Spanish-Argentine Repsol YPF SA, France's Total SA and U.S.-based Exxon Mobil Corp. The companies have six months to agree to new contracts or leave Bolivia, he said. Soldiers took over major gas fields and refineries and, in the eastern city of Santa Cruz, where much of the industry is based, occupied some oil company offices, said Tuffi Are, news editor at the El Deber newspaper, one of Bolivia's largest. He said about 100 soldiers were guarding the Petrobras refinery just outside the city. Vice President Alvaro Garcia Linera said troops were sent to 56 locations across the country. bras refinery just outside the city. Morales, a leftist allied with Cuba's Fidel Castro and Venezuela's Hugo Chavez in seeking to blunt U.S. influence in the region, had pledged to exert greater state control over the industry since he won election in December, becoming Bolivia's first Indian president. VICE President Alvaro Garcia Linera said troops were sent to 56 locations around the country. "The time has come, the awaited day, a historic day in which Bolivia retakes absolute control of our natural resources," Morales said in a speech from the San Alberto field in southern Bolivia operated by Petrobras in association with Repsol and Total SA.

Posters identifying doctors stopped BY GINA HOLLAND THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Monday ended a decade-long fight over the use by anti-abortion protesters of "wanted" posters to identify clinic doctors. A Portland, Ore., jury had first awarded several doctors and clinics $108 million in punitive damages, but that was reduced by the San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. Activists who created Wild West-style posters and a Web site targeting abortion doctors had been ordered to pay nearly $5 million in damages, and the court refused without comment to take up their appeal. ment to take the The 12 activists and two anti-abortion groups were sued under a racketeering law and the 1994 Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act, which makes it illegal to incite violence and threaten abortion doctors. A Portland, Ore., jury had first awarded several doctors and clinics $108 million in punitive damages, but that was reduced by the San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. The anti-abortion groups appealed to the high court, saying that the amount should be reduced more. 'This court has long taught that public forum political speech menu the highest possible protection — including alleged threats," said Edward White III, the attorney for the anti-abortion protesters, in a court filing. ming. White, who is trial counsel for the Thomas More Law Center in Ann Arbor, Mich., said Monday that the case, which dates to 1995, "affects any group that is involved in robust debate, especially on controversial topics." He said anti-abortion activists no longer used protest posters because of concerns about lawsuits. Lawyers for the clinics and doctors said that the latest appeal was a rehash of a similar appeal in the same case, which was rejected by the Supreme Court three years ago. ago. Maria Vullo, the lawyer for Planned Parenthood, said the Supreme Court had "finally put an end to re-litigation of these issues." "This case has never been about the money. It's about protecting doctors' lives," she said. The case is American Coalition of Life Activists v. Planned Parenthood, 05-1083. MISS.

SPORTS TUESDAY, MAY 2, 2006 Phillips THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 7 CONTINUED FROM PAGE 12A As the games get more intense, the system gets stretched to the limit. When rivals Kansas and Texas played, most calls resulted in arguments or supporters booing the call from the sideline. "We've been pretty close to a couple of fistfights in the past," senior Andrew Wimer said. He added that at the national championships they use what is called an "observer," someone who watches the game and can provide an opinion on a call if the players ask him for one. However, he is not allowed to stop the game to make a call. That sounds an awful lot like the authority the student section thinks it has in Allen Fieldhouse. The spirit of the game goes beyond the refereeing. Ultimate frisbee teams typically coach themselves. Players develop a communal bond, and the players at the host school will help find housing for the other teams. However, this has been the first time in 27 years the Kansas club team has a coach. The team elects captains to run practices and coach the younger players. "Sometimes it will get to a point where there's six guys on the floor, and sleeping bags are piled on top of sleeping bags." The ultimate scene is known as much for its partying as for its frisbee playing, but not last weekend. senior Jейн Huegerich said. "When one person wakes up, everybody wakes up." I can only assume that the Kansas line backers didn't all share a hotel room the night before the Fort Worth Bowl. "Every other tournament has a pretty good party, but not regionals," Huegerich said. Of course, the significance of the tournament didn't mean the other traditions had to end. The Texas players drank from a gallon-sized jug of pickle juice during timeouts, the Auburn players held a paper-rock-scissors tournament, and the Arkansas players performed various children's songs. Before the final game, players from the eliminated schools started a "fantasy ultimate" game, in the tradition of fantasy football. They chose players from each team and earned points when their players performed well. Throughout the game they yelled at their fantasy players and complained about the plains and the substitutions. But nobody seemed to have a problem with the referees. Phillips is a Wichita junior in journalism.

Andy Tullis/THE BULLETIN Game CONTINUED FROM PAGE 12A As for the home team, Kansas has tagged 55 long balls to St. Mary's 13, but the Spires are posting a .314 team batting average to the jayhawks'.294. Senior shortstop Ritchie Price had a large part in raising the jayhawks average this weekend. The co-captain went 6-12 with a pair of RBI and runs scored against Oklahoma last weekend. "We'vebeen swinging the bats really good in the last two to three weeks." Price said. "We swung them really well at Oklahoma State and I've been pleased with our progress." On the mound, junior left-hander Sean Land (5-6, 5.78) is slated to make the start, although coach Price has not made mention of changing his weekend rotation, this would mark Land's first midweek start of the season. — Edited by Gabriella Souza Every Thursday Life... and how to have one Every Thursday Life... and how to have one Jan Day (1) Fanny (2) Hey, Wants to see a friend?

Kansas Kansas re-entered the national rankings last week at No. 30 in the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association poll, but dropped to fifth in the Big 12 with a 3-2 record for the week. In a pair of midweek victories, Kansas outhit Southeast Missouri State and Creighton 20-5 and outscored the two teams 15-1. Kansas lost the weekend series to No. 14 Oklahoma, but salvaged one game with a 7-5 victory on Sunday. The Jayhawks' victory on Sunday snapped the Sooners' '13-game winning streak, which was the longest in the nation. It also prevented Kansas from being swept for the first time this season. season. For the first time in a week-end series this season, senior closer Don Czzy failed to earn a victory or save. However, last week Czzy was named to the Dick Howser Trophy watch list, which is awarded to the nation's top player by the NCBWA. He's already on the NCBWA Stopper of the Year and Roger Clemens Award midseason watch lists. Senior infielder Jared Schweitzer had the best week at the plate, going 9-for-18, including his eighth home run of the season, with five runs and three RBI. Sophomore third baseman Erik Morrison's seven-game hitting streak is the current team high and one short of matching his career high. Freshman catcher Andrew Spitzfaden made his first career start for Kansas as catcher with freshman Buck Afenir and junior Dylan Parzyk out of the lineup. Spitzfaden responded and went 2-for-4 with an RBI against KU ANS Creighton on April 26. He also caught for three different pitches in the combined one-hitter.

'HAWK BRED | ▼ BASERA11 PAGE 12A Gordon goofed when he left early TRAVIS ROBINETT trobinett@kansan.com KU 6 REZA 2 Shockingly, not a single member of Kansas' dominant defense was drafted last weekend in the NFL Draft. Not Big 12 Defensive player of the year Nick Reid, not super athlete Charlton Keith, and the most surprising name not called was Char-les Gor-don. Gordon left school after his Gordon tel junior year with plans to play at the next level, only to go undrafted and sign as a free agent with the Minnesota Vikings. His future has no guarantees now. Senior shortstop Ritchie Price waits to tag out Oklahoma sophomore Aaron Reza as Reza tries to steal base in the sixth inning at Hoglund Ballpark on April 12. Price and the Jayhawks will take on St. Mary (Kan.) at 7 tonight at Hoglund Ballpark. He was a star in college and should have milked that stardom for all it was worth. As a KU As a KU fan favorite, Gordon could have stayed at Kansas and heard his name chanted from the student section in Memorial Stadium on Saturday. He was a star in college and should have milked that stardom for all it was worth. NFL.com agreed when it wrote in his scouting report, "Gordon is a player who came out early for the 2006 NFL Draft, but would have been better suited to stay at Kansas for his senior season because he has yet to prove he can consistently produce at the level he is capable of." NFL.com's main problem with Gordon is that inconsistency. The Web site pointed out that, defensively, his backpedal was raw, which hindered his ability to transition out of it quickly and stay with opposing receivers. "More than anything." the site wrote, "he does not stay focused and use good technique/footwork, which leads to him allowing catches way too often." After reading this, I wondered why Gordon left in the first place. Shouldn't he have wanted to sure up his cornerback skills with one more year of college competition? But come on. Couldn't he have reasoned with Kansas coach Mark Mangino? I'm sure Mangino would have wanted to do the best thing for Gordon's future by letting him play cornerback full time. Kansas' defense could have used his experience after losing seven seniors including starting cornerback Theo Baines. Mangino would have had to be crazy to refuse another year of Gordon's services, even if it was on Gordon's terms. Gordon knew Kansas would have wanted him to help the team offensively, like he had during his previous three years. Apparently Gordon thought his draft status as a cornerback was as high as it would ever be and didn't want to hurt that status by coming back to play wide receiver. Even though it may have been a big mistake, what's done is done, and Gordon has an NFL contract for now. Hopefully, KU fans will be able to see him play on Sundays. Hobbett is an Austin, Texas Junior in journalism. Game changes up season BY ALISSA BAUER ibauer@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Sandwiched between a three-game set against No. 11 Oklahoma and a road trip to visit defending College World Series champs Texas is a midweek match-up with University of St. Mary (Kan.) at 7 tonight. Although coach Ritch Price liked the midweek games as an opportunity to give his younger non-starters some game experience, never before have they fit in a midweek game this season with as much disparity between their weekend and midweek opponents. Because St. Mary is a private school, it is in the NAIA conference. The Jayhawks know things will be different, especially when it comes to the speed coming from the mound "We're going to go from 90-92 to 80-82. You've just got to stay back and hit the ball the other way and play every team the same way pretty much," freshman catcher Andrew Spitzfaden said. Spitzfaden hit .375 in his three starts against Oklahoma, including a pair of triples. His status for tonight's lineup is unknown. Pulling together after the Sooners had outscored them by 17 runs in the first two games, Kansas (32-18, 10-11) avoided being swept for the first time of the season and came up with a 7-5 victory on Sunday. "We had our backs to the wall. The ball was flying out of here today," Price said on Sunday. "So it was tremendous pitching by Kodiak to put those six zeros up and Donnie was able to close it out at the end." The victory, which Price said saved the team's season, all but sealed the deal for a NCAA tournament berth in June — despite falling to less than .500 in conference play. Much like the NCAA Basketball Tournament, teams are not required to win their conference title or tournament championship to earn the bid. The string of ranked opponents, which at one point was a 17 consecutive games, has Kansas sitting at No.38 RPI ranking. That high of a nod combined with more than 30 victories will all but lock up Kansas' postseason. Scheduled to play at Friends last Friday night, the weather affected the Spires as well as the Jayhawks this weekend and Tonight the focus sets on the St. Mary Spires who sit at third place in the Kansas Collegiate Athletic Conference with a 24-20, 13-9 KCAC record. the game was rescheduled for a doubleheader tonight. Sophomore catcher Cody Newman leads the Spires, hitting 444 with seven home runs and 35 RBI. SEE GAME ON PAGE 7A CLUB SPORTS Frisbee team headed to nationals HorrorZontals overcome mudfest in 5-1 weekend, make tournament BY MICHAEL PHILLIPS mphillips@kansan.com KANSAAN STAFF WRITER TULSA, Okla. — Monday was laundry day for the Horror-Zontals. Kansas' club ultimate frisbee team slopped through six games last weekend on fields that were half-mud, half-puddle. 20 The team finished the weekend's regional tournament second of 16 teams with a record of 5-1, good enough to earn a bid to the national championships, which will be played in Columbus. Ohio, at the end of May. For the first time this year, two teams from the South region were awarded spots at the national tournament. Traditionally, Kansas and Texas have been the region's two powerhouse schools, but have fought for a single bid. Texas received it in 2005 and Kansas received it in 2004. Michael Phillips/KANSAN On Saturday, the two schools were set to play in the day's final game. Because of the doubleelimination format, the losing team would have to play three games on Sunday, but the winning team would have only one. HorrorZontal Joey Huegerich fights off North Texas' Pete Palacios for the disc while a teammate gets airborne to help. The HorrorZontals finished the weekend with a 5-1 record, including a victory over North Texas. Right before the game was supposed to start, what had been a steady rain turned into a full-blown thunderstorm. The teams waited out the lightning. Because of the significance of the tournament, they had no choice but to play through the weather. Team captain Joey Huegerich said ultimate frisbee could be especially An ultimate field is slightly larger than a football field. The playing zone is slightly smaller but the endzones are two-and-a-half times as big. A game is played to 15 points, but can be cut short at a pre-set time limit. "We'll tear up a field so bad there's no grass left," the senior said. "The game slows down, the disc is slipping out of people's hands, and you can't get traction, so everyone is falling down." When the Kansas-Texas game was finally played, the Horror-Zontals jumped out to an 11-7 lead, but watched it slip away in the final minutes, losing 15-13 and setting up a long Sunday. brutal on a field. After early-morning victories against Texas A&M and North Texas, Kansas took on Arkansas in the final game of the day, with the teams playing for the final spot at the championships. It was an intense back-and-forth game until Kansas broke open a 5-5 tie, never trailing for the rest of the game and finishing with a 15-12 victory. Kansas and Texas will advance to the national tournament, but the players don't have unrealistic expectations. East and west coast teams often dominate the event. "Every team at nationals is as good us or Texas," Huegerich said. "It used to be all small schools from New England, now it's more west coast teams, too." Last year Brown defeated Colorado to win the championship. The Kansas women's ultimate team, the Bettys, also played at the tournament. The women's teams played a round-robin format on Saturday to set up an elimination tournament on Sunday. After going 2-2 in pool play, the team finished in 6th place on Sunday out of 10 teams. Texas won the women's tournament also, getting the only available invitation to the national championship. - Edited by Frank Tankard This is the way sports should be played MICHAEL PHILLIPS mphillips@kansan.com PS TULSA, Okla. — The first thing you notice at an ultimate frisbee tournament is that it's not like any other sport. The second thing you notice is what a good thing that is. The best teams in the South region were vying for one of two spots at the national championships, but there were no NCAA suits, no coaches, no concession stands, and most shocking of all, no referees. Ultimate players rely on something they call the "spirit of the game." They call their own fools, sometimes resulting in two players making their case to each other about what a call should have been. Imagine Julian Wright and Brad Buckman standing on the court debating whether a collision was charging or a foul. The system, for the most part, works. If a call ends up with both sides still disagreeing, the disc goes back to the thrower and the point is replaced. "It's nice because it's just between the players on the field," senior Meghan Herndon said. 0 y CEE PHILLIPS 9N PAGE 7A 1 4 --- Cody nitting and 35 Not your average assistant coach Kansas assistant baseball coach Kevin Tucker has spent time coaching overseas in Sweden, Africa, France and Germany, but wants to even- tually return home to California.

"I hope that it's a message that one person can make a difference," Friesen said. "And that if you're passionate about something you should follow your heart and use it to benefit others." WEDNESDAY, MAY 3, 2006 A table will be set up on Wescoe Beach --hope that it's a message that one person can make a difference.

Richard Friesner Graduate student where students can learn more about volunteer opportunities at the café, which serves a restaurant-style breakfast to those in need in Lawrence every Tuesday and Friday morning. Students will also be able to make donations at the table. Priesner has been running marathons since his senior year as an undergraduate at the University. He got the idea for the fundraiser when he ran in the Across the Years 24-hour race in Phoenix, Ariz. He raised $600 for the café during that race. His focus recently has been on recovering from the Boston Marathon, which he run in April, but he still said he managed to run at least 100 miles every week. The café will use the money to buy food for the 260 meals served on average each week. It costs about $200 per week to keep the café up and running, an amount that Carolyn Tharp, co-coordinator of the café, said was a struggle to earn. She said the money Friesner could make would be helpful. "I was really surprised and type excited just because it was such a neat type of fundraiser that could draw a lot of attention and people could get really interested." Tharp said.

DAVIS III favis@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Against a backdrop of dump trucks and the lawrence Fire Chief Mark Bradford addressed the fire that burned the house at 838 Louisiana St. Bradford said the fire started in the basement when flammable vapors leaking from the groundwater ignited, possibly by a bum pump, furnace or hot water heater. He said the investigation was over and the cause of the fire was accidental. The early Sunday morning blaze displaced the occupants. No one was hurt. Bradford said tests done on storm water and sanitary reserves in the neighborhood found no traces of gasoline. He said the neighborhood was safe out that residents should call 911 if they smell gasoline. As for the contaminated groundwater, which contained a fuel and water mix, it may have originated across the street from where the fire took place. A trench dug next to Presto Convenience Store, 602 W. 9th St., which is across the street from the house, unearthed 800 gallons of a water-fuel mix. Two hundred gallons worth of that was pure gasoline. Presto has three underground tanks, two of which have an 8,000 gallon capacity and one that has a 4,000 gallon capacity. Tests done on the piping around the tanks showed no leaks, while tests on the tanks were still ongoing. Sharon Watson, communications director for the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, Bradford said the fire started in the basement when flammable vapors leaking from the groundwater ignited, possibly by a sump pump, furnace or water heater. said she was not ready to pinpoint the source of the leak until the tests on the tanks were complete. An employee from Presto said, "Mum's the word." Watson also mentioned that Presto's gasoline records showed discrepancies while the other three gas stations in the vicinity had accurate records.

Both deal with pressures of school, tests and homework, but student athletes carry the weight of constant training and competition for their sport as well as the everwatchful public eye. All this can leave the athletes stressed and mentally fatigued. The KU Athletics Department announced Thursday that it hired a fulltime sports psychologist to help athletes make it through their years at the University of Kansas. The department chose Megan Brent, Ph.D. "We think the time has come to have someone who can give us help in guiding student athletes through the process," Jim Marchiony, associate athletics director, said. Marchiony said the pressures of being a public figure and a student could weigh heavily on a student athlete. The department had never had a full-time psychologist, but Marchiony said it was in their best interest to bring someone on board. "It was just a realization gained over time that we want to do whatever we can to create an atmosphere that will breed success," Marchiony said.

His passion for geology goes back to his childhood, but his interest is still strong. UDK: How long have you been teaching at KU? MT. August 15th will be one year. This is my first professor position. Prior to this I did post doctorate at Cal Tech and graduate work at UCLA. UDK: What made you decide to come to KU? MT: The department here. They were very nice and excited about my research. The department is growing faster than a lot of other geology departments. It's nice to be a part of something new. UDK: What are your impressions of KU so far? Do you like it? MT: I do. The students are so polite. They are concerned about their grades. The campus is beautiful and the people are nice. UDK: What inspired your initial interest in geology? MT. Ever since I was a little kid I've been bringing rocks home and enjoyed being outside. Originally in college I wasn't on the geology track at all. I was studying to be a marine biologist and I took a course similar to Intro to Geology. I was intrigued and just kept taking more. This was at North Carolina. I am fascinated by how dynamic the earth is. UDK: What is your favorite part about teaching? MT. When students get it and I know that I've conveyed the info well. It's good to see people nodding and smiling. And also, when students become interested and keep asking more and more questions. UDK: Where have you traveled? MT. I've been to Japan, Tibet, China and South America, all of the United States, the east coast, west coast, and American Southwest. Rocky Mountains, Barrier Islands, Puerto Rico. I have a good global coverage Tibet was my first love. The geology there is world class. There are still so many questions that are left unanswered. It's very exciting. UDK: What have been some of the highlights of your career so far? MT: There have been so many options. Not all of them have been geology related. I enjoy interacting with people. UDK: What are some of your interests and hobbies? MT. Being outside. Triathlon is a really big deal to me. I love to go out and go for drives and look at the local landscapes. I also love food. Food is a big deal. I also enjoy performances, both theater and music. An interest I'd like to pursue is going to more KU basketball games.

Deputy Housing and Local Government Minister Robert Lau — whose ministry will hold the conference in Kuala Lumpur Aug. 24 and 25 said Tuesday "having clean restrooms in this country is a serious challenge that we have to tackle." Public toilets in Malaysia have long disgusted residents and tourists with their lack of basic items such as toilet paper, soap and sometimes even toilet seats. Lau said the meeting would bring together local officials and international experts on toilet management, including the founder of the World Toilet Organization, Jack Sim.

Edited by Katherine Anderson INTERNATIONAL U.N. considers sanctions for Iran Iran remains resistant to inspection UNITED NATIONS — The United States, Britain and France are pushing for sanctions if Iran continues to defy demands that it halt uranium enrichment — but not the sweeping economic and military embargoes imposed on Iraq after its 1990 invasion of Kuwait. What the U.N. Security Council's three veto-wielding Western members aim for are targeted sanctions, such as restricting trade in equipment with both civilian and military uses and banning travel and freezing the assets of Iranians who oversee the country's nuclear program. "The general idea we have on Iran is more targeted sanctions aimed at specific individuals responsible for the nuclear program, and the country's direction of the nuclear program," U.S. Ambassador John Bolton said in a recent interview. U. N. sanctions imposed on Saddam Hussein's regime banned all Iraqi imports and exports, except food and medicine, and authorized inspections of shipments in and out of Iraq to verify their cargo. The sanctions halted legal oil exports from Iraq, a major producer with the world's second-largest reserves. Bolton said targeted sanctions would also likely include "restricting trade in dual use and other sensitive items." In Paris, U.S. Undere secretary of State Nicholas Burns predicted Tuesday that Europe would agree to support a Security Council resolution that would carry the unstated threat of sanctions. He didn't rule out tougher sanctions at some future date. But Washington and its allies face an uphill struggle in winning backing from Russia and China, the council's other vetowielding permanent members. Those nations, which have strong ties to Iran, are leery of the resolution even though it doesn't specifically mention sanctions. The resolution would make the council's previous demand for Iran to stop uranium enrichment mandatory, but the Western allies want it authorized under Chapter 7 of the U.N. Charter, which would make it enforceable later by sanctions or military action. vog "I think it's going to be very difficult to get anything by Russia and China unless Iran becomes even more belligerent," said James Phillips, a research fellow on the Middle East at the Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank. Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmedinejad has been defiant toward the Security Council's demands, and he has sparked international criticism by saying Israel should be wiped "off the map" and for questioning whether the Holocaust happened. Mannie Garcia/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS U. N. Ambassador John Bolton testifies on Capitol Hill on Tuesday before the House National Security, Emerging Threats and International Relations subcommittee hearing on U.N. sanctions after the Oil for Food program. But, in contrast to the handling of Iraq, there has been no talk of economic sanctions that could slow Iran's oil exports. Jon Alterman, director of the Middle East program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, said there was not a consensus that diplomacy had failed, which might open the way to sanctions. "There's a genuine concern in Russia and China about Iran's nuclear program, but there's not a strong conviction that we have to move swiftly on sanctions," he said. China is a big customer for Iranian oil, and a cutoff of the oil would be a big blow for the world market's already high oil prices. Between 1945 and 1990, the Security Council imposed sanctions only twice — against white-ruled Rhodesia in 1966 and apartheid South Africa in 1977. But during the 1990s, it imposed sanctions against governments or rebel movements 12 times, according to a study by David Cortright and George Lopez at the University of Notre Dame. Alterman said the sanctions against Iraq and sanctions on Libya in 1992 to force Moamar Gadhafi's government to surrender two men wanted in the 1988 jetliner bombing over Lockerbie, Scotland, were "largely successful" in curbing nuclear proliferation. "Iqra was not found to have an advanced program. Libya did not have an advanced program," he said. "So it seems to me that the lesson you can draw is that if you can get to that point of getting international agreement on sanctions, then they can be a useful curb on proliferation."

V NEWS WEDNESDAY, MAY 3, 2006 4A THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN ▼ EDUCATION New grants get green light from government BY BEN FELLER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — In a rare venture into curriculum, the Bush administration on Tuesday declared which high school programs are "rigorous" enough to qualify students for college aid. The designation is important because only college freshmen and sophomores who complete a rigorous high school course of study can receive certain new grants approved by Congress. The Education Department typically avoids endorsing or rating coursework,a politically sensitive area that states control. But in creating the math and science grants for poorer students, Congress ordered Education Secretary Margaret Spellings to judge which high school programs are challenging. Spellings, under pressure to get the program running in every state by the fall, announced a range of ways for students to be eligible for grants over the next two years. She deferred for now to programs that states already consider rigorous, either based on the nature of the coursework or the sheer number of courses that students must take. But in future years, the criteria will get tougher to better reflect what colleges demand of students, Spellings said in a letter to governors and state school officers. The grants are open only to students who already qualify for low-income Pell Grants. Some students may be shut out simply because their schools don't have sufficient offerings. "We can't know that every single student will have had the opportunity to take these courses," said assistant education secretary Tom Luce. "But we believe we set up enough options that it's likely that a vast number of students would have had the opportunity." opportunity. The grant program is also open to college juniors and seniors who maintain good grades and are pursuing a degree in math, science, engineering or foreign languages in high demand. An estimated 500,000 students will be eligible this fall. Students will qualify if they: —Have an advanced or honors high school diploma, as offered in at least 19 states. Completed the courses of the State Scholars Initiative, a congressional backed program requiring students to take four years of English, three years of math, three years of lab science, three and a half years of social studies, and two years of a language other than English. Fourteen states have the program now. grain flow. —Finished a set of courses "similar" to the State Scholars curriculum. —Taken at least two Advanced Placement or International Baccalaureate courses and passed the tests in both subjects. States may also submit their own idea of what a rigorous course of study means, for review by Spellings. Those are due by June 1. Starting this fall, grants of $750 will be available for college freshmen and $1,300 for sophomores. Juniors and seniors can receive up to $4,000 a year. Congress has approved up to $4.5 billion for the program over the next five years. the next Republican lawmakers approved the program in December as part of a bill that otherwise slashed almost $13 billion in college spending. SAGO MINE Dale Sparks/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Bennett Hatfield, President and CEO of International Coal Group, testifies at the Rockefeller Physical Education Center on the campus of West Virginia Wesleyan College during the first day of the Sago Mine disaster hearings, Tuesday. Members of the families of the Sago Mine miners testified about the lives of their lost loved ones. BY VICKY SMITH THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Reason for explosion remains uncertain BUCKHANNON, WVa. — "Did our dad have to die?" Peggy Cohen asked Tuesday as mine safety regulators opened an emotional public hearing on questions still surrounding the January disaster that left 12 men dying deep inside the Sago Mine. Family members of the other miners followed her to the microphone, some clutching framed photos of the victims. "We assure you, Mr. Politicians, that we're not going to let this rest," said John Groves, whose brother Jerry Groves was among the victims. "We know in our hearts that this can be corrected. It needs to be done immediately, it needs to be done now. And it's on you." Four months after the blast, officials from the federal Mine Safety and Health Administration, West Virginia's Office of Miners' Health Safety and the company that owns the Sago Mine began testifying about the disaster in a two-day public hearing. The miners' families wanted to know whether lightning caused the blast inside the mine that killed one of the crew, why it took MSHA 11 hours to start the search for the trapped crew, and how the false news spread that 12 of the 13 trapped men were alive when all the men but one, Randal McCloy Jr., were dead. With government investigations underway, Groves wasn't expecting many answers. The testimony Tuesday centered on the mine's safety record in the year before the explosion and whether state and federal officials had appropriately enforced regulations. Kevin Stricklin, MSHA's district manager, defended the federal agency's enforcement efforts and talked about how MSHA and mine owner International Coal Group had been working to make the mine safer since ICG took over. "I do think the mine did seem to be improving in the fourth quarter of 2005," Stricklin said. "It wasn't a perfect mine, but we were working to make a better mine than what it was." State and federal investigators have not determined precisely what caused the explosion and were expected to press ICG officials on Wednesday to explain why it believes a powerful lightning strike triggered methane gas in a sealed off section of the mine. HEALTH Flu pandemic strategy focuses on preparation WASHINGTON - A medical reality is complicating federal preparations for the next pandemic: Flu spreads in ways that make it extremely unlikely the U.S. could avoid being hit. Even shutting U.S. borders against outbreaks abroad offers little reassurance, because people can spread flu a full day before they show symptoms. With 1.1 million people legally entering the country every day, that means a super-strain would probably be incubating here by the time it was diagnosed abroad. The government's latest national response plan acknowledges the difficulty as it warns that states, cities and businesses shouldn't count on a federal rescue if a superstrain of influenza strikes and that people may have to rely on creative if not scientifically proven ideas such as staying 3 feet away from co-workers and not shaking anyone's possibly contaminated hand. President Bush last fall announced a $7.1 billion strategy to fight the next flu "This would really be a road map," White House spokesman Scott McClellan said Tuesday. "It will cover both the government and non-government actions that are being taken to plan and prepare for any potential pandemic." pandemic, focusing largely on public health preparations such as how to rapidly produce a vaccine once the next super-flu strikes. On Wednesday, the White House will formally release Step 2 of that strategy — a list of actions that different branches of government need to take to prepare. The incremental step is drawing political attacks that the Bush administration isn't moving fast enough. "Other nations have been implementing their plans for years, but we're reading ours for the first time now. These needless delays have put Americans at risk," Sen. Ed-Ward Kennedy, D-Mass., said. Infectious disease experts hope the new details being released Wednesday will help businesses and local governments better determine what they should be doing -and what federal aid they can expect if a pandemic strikes.

Plan to reduce hunger falls short INTERNATIONAL BY NICK WADHAMS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS UNITED NATIONS — Poor nutrition contributes to the deaths of some 5.6 million children every year and the world has fallen far short in efforts to reduce hunger by half before 2015, the U.N. Children's Fund said Tuesday. The finding, announced in a UNICEF report, was the latest evidence the United Nations will not meet the Millennium Development Goals, a series of targets set out in 2000 to spur development and reduce poverty and hunger worldwide. In its report, UNICEF said one of every four children under age 5, including 146 million children in the developing world, is underweight. "At our current pace, we will not meet the promise of the Millennium Development Goals." Ann Veneman UNICEF Executive Director "At our current pace, we will not meet the promise of the Millennium Development Goals," UNICEF Executive Director Ann Veneman said. The most troublesome area in the world is South Asia, where 46 percent of children are underweight. India, Bangladesh and Pakistan account for half of the world's underweight children even though they have only 30 percent of the world's population of children under 5. The report defines "undernutrition" as the combination of hunger and repeated infectious diseases. It includes being underweight, too short, too thin and lacking in vitamins and minerals. "Children in this region live in an almost constant state of emergency," Veneman said. In developing nations, only one in three children is breastfed in the first six months of life, meaning they are deprived of crucial nutrients that stimulate their immune systems and protect them from respiratory infections, the report said. IMMIGRATION BY JULIE WATSON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Heat causes worry at border SASABE, Mexico — Wearing tight jeans and a glittery "hebe" T-shirt, the 17-year-old scrambled out of a packed van as the temperature edged toward 90 degrees in this barren stretch of the U.S.-Mexican border. Carrying no hat or sunscreen, the teenager who called herself Adriana Brenda said the longest hike she'd taken was through a shopping mall. But here she was, ready for a three-day trek across the up from 36 in 2004 and 15 in 2003, according to the Border Patrol. In response, many migrants are crossing closer to Yuma, Ariz., where daytime temperatures can hover around 120 degrees — 10-15 degrees hotter than around Tucson. The desert around Tucson is crawling with 2,400 U.S. Border Patrol agents. Rifle-bearing civilians known as Minutemen are also keeping watch. Migrant deaths for the Yuma sector hit a record 51 in 2005. Apprehensions have jumped 16 percent for the region — with 89,336 people caught from October through April, said Richard Hays, a spokesman for the Border Patrol in Yuma. "We are already anticipat- As temperatures arise, the U.S. Border Patrol and aid groups are gearing up for what they fear could be one of the deadliest summers for migrants. across the desert. She carried two gallons of water — enough, experts say, to keep her hydrated for two hours. As temperatures rise, the U.S. Border Patrol and aid groups are gearing up for what they fear could be one of the deadliest summers for migrants sneaking into the United States. The U.S. Senate is debating a bill that could lock the border tighter than ever, and activists fear the flow of migrants is moving to an even hotter and more remote section of desert than the current favorite, an area south of Tucson, Ariz., where hundreds of people have died since 1994. ing this shift in traffic and are working to ensure the safety of those who are determined to get into the United States in violation of the law," he said. Those plans include erecting seven more rescue beacons in the Yuma sector — there are now 12 — and adding agents, Hays said. Migrants have moved to more remote areas each time the U.S. has cracked down on a section of the 2,000-mile-long border, activists say. In 2001, one of Arizona's worst migrant tragedies occurred in the area, when 14 people died in temperatures reaching 115 degrees. The desert east of Yuma is one of the least forgiving. From the border, a migrant can walk for 50 miles before reaching an interstate. Adding to the danger is the Barry M. Goldwater Bombing Range, where the U.S. Air Force drops bombs to train for the war in Iraq. Last year, Border Patrol agents rescued five children, five women and four men from the bombing range after their smuggler abandoned them and they activated a rescue beacon. No one has been hit by a bomb, Hays said. Migrant groups estimate 500 people died trying to cross the border in 2005. The Border Patrol reported 473 deaths in the fiscal year ending Sept. 30. While that number includes people who drowned in the Rio Grande, died in car accidents and succumbed to cold, the desert's searing heat takes the heaviest toll. In southern Arizona, Border Patrol agents routinely run across people vomiting uncontrollably in the summer heat, their skin clammy, their eyes glazed over, said Aerr Eltringham, a Border Patrol spokesman in Tucson. Some migrants are found dead. On a recent afternoon, agents for the Mexican government's Grupo Beta aid group distributed pamphlets to migrants preparing to cross. The pamphlets recommend carrying plenty of water, food and salt, and advise migrants to keep their clothing on to avoid dehydration and sunburn. If the heat gets to be too much, the pamphlets advise setting a fire to summon rescuers. Brenda, the 17-year-old in the "bebe" T-shirt, stuffed the pampidet into her backpack and said she didn't think the trip would be so hard. However, the teenager from the central city of Puebla admitted she had little experience in the outdoors. "My parents warned us about the risks along the way, that you suffer cramps and get tired, but I have food and water," said Brenda, who set out last week with her 18-year-old sister and about 16 other migrants on her way to Mesa, Ariz., where her brothers live. "We're doing this so we can have a better life," said Brenda, who may not have given her full name for fear of U.S. officials. It was impossible to determine if she successfully made the crossing. The Border Patrol does not confirm the names of detainees for privacy reasons. --- Wiener for seniors Free hot dogs and prizes for graduating seniors!

Jury asks for days off BY MICHAEL J. SNIFFEN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS ALEXANDRIA, Va. — Jurors in the trial of Zacarias Moussaoui completed their sixth day of deliberations Tuesday without deciding whether the Sept. 11 conspirator should be executed or sentenced to life in prison. of sentenced to two The nine men and three women went home after 6 3/4 hours of work Tuesday, bringing their total deliberations so far to 35 1/4 hours. They are to return Wednesday morning. Meanwhile, a transcript unsealed Tuesday revealed that the jurors decided to knock off work early this week — at 1:15 p.m. Thursday — so one juror could attend his parents' 50th wedding anniversary out of state and another juror could attend his daughter's induction into the National Junior Honor Society. Judge Leonie Brinkema advised lawyers in the case "Don't assume from this that the jury will necessarily go to Friday." according to the transcript of a telephone conference Monday afternoon. Her phone conference with the lawyers was prompted by notes from the jury asking for what the forewoman called "two special considerations for this week." The jury had been setting its schedule one day at a time, but late Monday it released a schedule that went through May 8 and included the early departure Thursday and a day off Friday. Some surmised then that the jurors were settling in for long deliberations. But Brinkema told the lawyers Monday, "I don't really know why they sent this (note) to us this早 in the week, but, you know, obviously, they're trying to, I guess, make sure they're organized for the week." With the agreement of prosecutors and defense attorneys, Brinke The jurors have given few clues about their decision-making process. They have asked only one question — a request for a dictionary that was denied by the judge. ma advised the jury it was allowed to set its own work schedule. Later Brinkema learned that one juror — the same man whose daughter is being inducted into the honor society — had consulted a dictionary for the meaning of "aggravating," so she gave them a legal and dictionary definition of the term used to describe evidence that makes a death sentence more appropriate. And she told them again to ask her questions rather than do their own research. then own research. The jury is weighing 10 aggravating factors and 23 mitigating factors in the evidence introduced during the six-week trial to decide whether Moussaoui deserves execution or life behind bars. ENTERTAINMENT 'ER' focuses on Darfur BY LYNN ELBER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LOS ANGELES — More often than not, television has looked away from the complex, searing reality of Darfur. The episode, "There are no Angels Here" (10 p.m. EDT), is airing during a burst of attention the new thinking "Darfur is a glaring example of a situation in the world that people don't know enough about, that they need to know more about and, hopefully, help start to find solutions," said "ER" executive producer David Zabel. The three network evening newscasts devoted less than a combined 10 minutes so far this year to the political and ethnic conflict that has killed at least 180,000 and driven 2 million more from their homes in the western Sudan province since 2003. NBC's "ER" puts Dr. Gregory Pratt (Mekhi Phifer) in the thick of the desperate situation with former colleague Dr. John Carter (Noah Wyle). The result is urgent drama aimed at jolting viewers into recognition of the immense suffering taking place. The potential audience is big. The nightly newscasts on NBC ABC and CBS attract roughly 7 million to 9 million viewers each while "ER" although no longer among TV's top-rated series in its 12th season, averages more than 12 million viewers. On Thursday, an entertainment show will quadruple the broadcast news Darfur allotment. ger, disease and... "She wants to know if her daughter will die today or tomorrow," an interpreter says. Carter hesitates but can't deny the inevitability of her loss.

Secretary General Koffi Annan called "little short of hell on earth," with a deadline at hand for a peace accord between Sudan's government and Darfur rebels. What's helped news cameras swing toward the despairing African region is the magnetic force of celebrity. After a trip to Africa, actor-activist George Clooney ("Syriana" and formerly "ER") was welcomed on TV news outlets, including CNN and ABC, to discuss what he had seen. had seen In Washington on Sunday, In Washington, Clooney was among the celebrities who joined politicians, religious leaders and others to highlight the conflict and urge greater U.S. involvement. President Bush gave his support to that and other weekend rallies, saying, "The genocide Coverage of Darfur has been dwindling: It was 18 minutes in 2005 and 26 minutes the year before, according to Andrew Tyndall, who publishes a weekly newsletter on the content of network newscasts. "Darfur is a glaring example of a situation in the world that people don't know enough about, that they need to know more about and hopefully, help start to find solutions." torgeson suggested the "ER" episode could increase public awareness of Darfur and encourage viewers to "want to learn more, and perhaps do something about it." something the episode was filmed primarily in the South African desert and cost some $7 million — more than triple the usual David Zabel "ER" executive producer One of the groups that helped "ER" with the Darfur research used in writing the script, Doctors Without Borders, lauded the episode. the episode. "There is so little space on regular network news for coverage of under-reported humanitarian stories that it's really great when a popular TV show like 'ER' can put resources into trying to show the challenges of a situation like we're seeing in Darfur," said Kris Torgeson, spokeswoman for Doctors Without Borders. in Sudan is unacceptable." Work on the Darfur story, which was introduced in previous episodes and culminates Thursday, began eight months ago. It's an extension of the show's previous attention to Africa in an arc that brought Dr. Carter to Africa to fight AIDS. cost for a one-hour drama. It's the result of the clout "ER" chief John Wells has gained from the long-running show and the other NBC series he produced, "The West Wing" and "Third Watch." sometimes we'll do just what we think is the best way to use the platform that we have and not necessarily pander to what we think people want to see or what's the most popular thing to do," said Zabel. Wells "is very bold in the sense that That said, Zabel understands that viewers tune in for entertainment, not education. "That's why we tried to search for a way to find some hope and promise of a better future in a situation as desperate and sad as what's happening in Darfur," he said. Among the characters in the episode: a young couple battered by the conflict but laying claim to the future with the baby she's carrying. "Hopefully, viewers find some uplift and inspiration in a story that's very grave," Zabel said. transformers STUDENT NIGHT Spencer Museum of Art THURSDAY, MAY 4, 6-8 PM Hosted by the Spencer Student Advisory Board SPONSORS • SUN CREATIONS • SHERIDAN'S FROZEN CUSTARD KJHK 90.7 FM • MASS STREET MUSIC • KIEF'S DOWNTOWN MUSIC LOVE GARDEN SOUNDS • HEADMASTERS • KU MEMORIAL UNIONS • MUSIC BY KJHK DJS • ICE CREAM • T-SHIRTS • PRIZES & MORE! free event!

The two ordinances would call for heavier fines for those using cellular phones in car accidents and would ban the use of cellular phones by drivers under the age of 18. While the commission did not reach a decision at its meeting Monday night, it is on the right track in wanting to prevent accidents and protect the community, but the measures it's seeking may be going too far to solve the problem. After speaking with a commission member, Paul Atchley, associate professor of psychology, provided research to the commission on the effects of cellphone use on drivers last semester. He himself studies the effects conversation has on attention and supports the ordinances, having said that the use of cellphones by drivers, handheld and wireless, is at least as risky as driving drunk. "People can drive with one hand. It's having your mind occupied that is the problem," he said. Lawrence is not alone in this issue, Atchley said. Other cities, states and countries have passed legislation limiting the use of cellular phones by drivers. But the commission's Issue: Driving while talking on a cellular phone Stance: Proposed ordinance will be unfairly specific or too vague to be effective. actions may not need to be as drastic as they currently are. Drivers under the age of 18 may be the most inexperienced drivers, but are they really that much different from a 19- or 20-year old driver? Age is too variable a factor to be the basis of a ban in this situation. It would be better to prevent all drivers from using cellular phones than to base a ban on an arbitrary age. To ban wireless devices would also be too drastic. They were specifically designed to be less distracting than handheld phones. Given the other distractions that a driver has to put up with, it seems the commission is being too cawaller in its drive to solve the problem. Cellular phones are a distraction to drivers. They take attention away from what a driver should be focused on: The road and the actions of his fellow drivers. That being said, the commission's proposed ordinances would either unfairly go after specific groups or be too broad. - Ty Beaver for the editorial board Free All for Call 864-0500 Free for All callers have 20 seconds to speak about any topic they wish.

Fisher's book was the culmination of a series of questionnaires on love that she administered to a vast cross-section of cultures. Heterosexuals, Caucasians, males, Catholics, homosexuals, females, Asians and Protestants. The participants were asked to think about a passionate relationship and to answer a wide range of questions about age, financial status, sexual preference, religion and ethnicity, accordingly. What Fisher found was astonishingly simple: The experience of being in love is virtually universal. Of the people that Fisher polled, she found no statistical differences between the varying cultural groups. Males and females answered similarly to 87 percent of the questions while heterosexuals and homosexuals gave parallel answers to 86 percent of the questions. Young and old, Caucasians and non-Caucasians, Catholics and Protestants all gave responses that were eerily similar. The best kind of love is like slipping on your favorite broken- Fisher's study reveals that love is a universally uniting aspect of life. What is so wondrous is the way each of us arrives at and forms our feelings and experiences in love. COURTNEY HAGEN opinion@kansan.com But more than that, the best kind of love has a sort of redeeming quality to it. When you are truly with the right person, they bring out the best in you. Their efficiencies make up for your deficiencies, and help you to become a better person. Like a great partnership, true love should not force you to become something you're not, but only enhance your good qualities by joining forces with another human being. As I get older, I am becoming even more in awe of the twists and turns that life and fate inevitably lead me down. To me, the concept of love once seemed so obtuse and impossible. True love seemed like a stumbling block that would cloud my judgment and stunt my lofty dreams. I once thought my mind was made up...but after all, as I've discovered, love has a mind of its own. The sex and love battlefront isn't always easy, but like any war, it invariably changes you in ways you never thought possible. The love battle teaches you to be alert to the enemy of heartbreak and guard yourself against it by unconscious isolation. But all too often your vulnerable spot is penetrated. Sometimes there is nothing you can do to resist it, but to surrender completely. This kind of love, my friends, the chance attack that penetrates through all your reinforcements and safety tactics, is the best kind of love. This is the kind of love that rocks you to the core, the kind that makes you smile at the most inopportune times of day at the mere thought of it. This is the kind of love that changes your life and your future for the better. Survive this kind of love and you will grow stronger, deny it and you won't feel nearly as alive. If you don't understand the kind of love that I am talking about, I hope that your life and fate will lead you there some-day and you find all that you are looking for.

'Pro-life' stance leads to discirmination against women The abortion debate in America is perhaps the greatest struggle for civil rights faced by our generation. The right for a woman to be secure in her person, as guaranteed by the Fourth amendment, and her right to privacy as guaranteed by the First, Fourth, Fifth, Ninth and Fourteenth amendments as defined in Roe v. Wade, is under constant attack by the forces of ignorance and hypocrisy. One shudders to think what might happen if the so-called "pro-life" movement had its way. LETTER TO THE EDITOR Perhaps the greatest irony about this whole debate is that the proponents of legislation to ban abortion cite great leaders in civil rights movements as their inspiration, but in reality they are trying to restrict the rights of women everywhere. Before Roe, women had difficulty finding jobs because employers feared that they would get pregnant and be forced to take time off or quit. Because there was no law protecting the right of a woman to control her own body, they were relegated to a second-class citizen status and thought of merely as baby-makers and not much more. An even greater irony is that many in the pro-life movement complain that the tactics of the pro-choice movement are "venomous." However, I have never heard of pro-life people being singled out and harassed at their homes and place of work because of their beliefs. I have never heard of pro-life people being murdered at their meetings with pipe-bombs. I have never heard of pro-life leaders being shot to death in front of their families while at home. If the tactics of the pro-choice movement are venomous, then the tactics of the pro-life movement are downright repulsive, not to mention hypocritical. To say that you value life and then allow for people in your movement to destroy it, that is the textbook definition of hypocrisy. This seems to be symptomatic of the pro-life movement as a whole. They say one thing, and then do another. Some people in the pro-life movement claim that it is not about morality, and that Roe is simply a bad law that needs to be repealed. Do not believe them.

Steve Nichols Overland Park senior DAVID ARMSTRONG opinion@kansan.com --- The average American watches more than four hours of television per day, according to the Media Education Foundation. The American Obesity Association (AOA) reports the average adult American to be more likely overweight than not. Furthermore, $ 30.5\% $ of the adult population in this country is obese (AOA). Get off the couch and better your life as well While some may find the proposition I am about to make as being preposterous, others may believe a study would indicate in accordance with my speculation. My hypothesis is that there is a strong correlation with the folks spending no less than a sixth of their lives staring at a television screen and being overweight. That is, just a guess, of course. COMMENTARY I propose that if people stopped watching television the world would be a better place. Turning off the television allows individuals to become more in touch with themselves and reality. Of course, if you want to lose the weight (and experience self-actualization), abstaining from couch vegging and the like is a must.

The flight was en route to San Francisco from Newark, N.J., when the hijackers took over, probably with the goal of crashing the plane into the White House or the Capitol. Instead, the plane went down in Pennsylvania — apparently after passengers rushed the cockpit — killing the 33 passengers, seven crew members and four hijackers on board. WASHINGTON — Universal Pictures will donate $1.14 million toward a memorial to the passengers and crew who perished aboard United Flight 93 on Sept. 11, 2001 — addressing concerns of a lawmaker who has blocked legislation to buy land for the project, a group representing the families said Tuesday. Hamilton Peterson, president of Families of Flight 95, told The Associated Press on Tuesday that Universal had committed the money to the project. The donation from Universal, which last week released "United 93," a film about the flight, brings to $9 million the private donations raised for the memorial. Organizers hope to raise $30 million to build the memorial near Shanksville, Pa., where the plane crashed. For the past two years, Rep. Charles H. Taylor, R-N.C., chairman of the House Appropriations subcommittee that oversees the Interior Department, has blocked funding to buy property for the memorial. He has expressed concerns that the project would not receive sufficient private funding and the federal government would be asked to pick up the tab. the parish. The studio had promised to contribute some proceeds from the film to the memorial, which is expected to cost about $58 million to build. "We're optimistic once we have the chance to get him additional facts about our fund-raising success to date, that he may have a different perspective," said Peterson, whose father and stepmother died in the crash. A call to Universal Pictures was not immediately returned. Taylor could not immediately be reached for comment on Tuesday. His press secretary has said he would not speak about the issue before it came to his panel on Thursday. Lynn Scarlett, acting director of the Interior Department, told reporters Monday that members of her staff had met with Taylor and subcommittee members and were hopeful the funding would be made available. Still pitying the fool SAMSUNG Mr. T arrives at NBC's 75th anniversary celebration, May 5, 2002, at New York's Rockefeller Center.

NATIONAL An aide to the congressman dismissed the criticism, arguing that Democrats were trying to make an issue where there is none. WASHINGTON — Republican Rep. John Sweeney's attendance at a beer-drinking, college fraternity party has drawn criticism from Democrats who accused the New York lawmaker of using poor judgment. Congressman attends fraternity party "The congressman is from the Capital region and has been known on occasion to venture outside of his congressional district," said Melissa Carlson, a spokeswoman for Sweeney. "They need a better strategy to see success in November than this." "What is a 50-year-old congressman doing at a frat party at 1 in the morning cavorting with students 30 years his junior? Teaching them how a bill becomes a law?" Blake Zeff, a spokesman for New York Democrats, said Friday. Sweeney stopped by the Alpha Delta Phi party at Union College in Schenectad, N.Y., late last Friday, a visit first reported by the college newspaper, the Concordiensis. The paper also printed a photo of the lawmaker posing with students. Local newspapers in the region posted similar photos online. As a rule, campus-registered fraternity parties are allowed four kegs of beer that security taps to start the event and then unplugs at 2 a.m. John Tomlin, a sophomore who attended the party and wrote the story for the college newspaper, told The Associated Press on Friday that Sweeney "was loud, he was swearing" but he never saw the congressman consume any alcohol. Carlson has denied suggestions in published reports that the congressman was drunk. Tomlin, who said he drank before the party but not during it, said he didn't know if any drugs were present. In February, Sweeney was hospitalized in Albany after complaining of severe headaches. After several weeks in and out of the hospital, he was eventually diagnosed with vasculitis, an inflammation of blood vessels in the brain, and prescribed drugs to treat the problem. Sweeney is married with three children. The four-term Republican represents a district that stretches from the Albany suburbs to the North Country and includes Saratoga Springs. Union College is in a neighboring district. Democrats have targeted Sweeney in his bid for re-election. The lawmaker won a fourth term in 2004 with nearly 66 percent of the vote in a district with a mix of union workers from the capital and Republican-learning dairy farmers. Hold on tight HEATHER G.

STATE LEGISLATURE Late days blamed for lack of stadium interest BY JOHN HANNA THE ASSOCIATED PRESS TOPEKA, Kan. — Olathe officials aren't likely to get help this year from the Legislature for efforts to attract a new stadium complex for professional soccer's Kansas City Wizards. The city proposed last week that legislators rewrite state laws dealing with an economic development tool known as STAR bonds. With state approval, those bonds can be issued for large projects, then paid off with sales tax revenues generated from the new economic activity. However, the idea isn't likely to emerge from the Senate Commerce Committee, partly because legislators are close to the end of their annual session, with Tuesday the 85th of 90 scheduled days. "There just wasn't much interest on the part of the committee," Chairwoman Karin Brownlee, R-Olathe, said Tuesday. Spokesman Tim Danneberg said the city still plans to pursue the Wizards, even without a change in STAR bonds laws. The Wizards' future has been in doubt since December 2004, when owner Lamar Hunt, who also owns professional football's Kansas City Chiefs, announced plans to sell the soccer club. In early April, Major League Soccer narrowed its choices to Olathe, De Soto and Gardner for the 220-acre complex, which would cost from $89 million to $125 million, according to a league consultant. Supporters believe the three cities offer enough inexpensive real estate, access to major highways, flat land and access to utilities. Olathe would like to use the bonding program to construct the stadium and its amenities, then lease the stadium to the team. State law prohibits governments from using the bonds to build facilities and turning around and leasing them to a "For us, and in all likelihood anyone, to explore putting together a soccer stadium, some type of incentive like STAR bonds would be needed." Danneberg said. private entity. With a $175 million budget, Olathe can't afford to build and maintain such a soccer complex, he said, adding that the city doesn't ever want to have to ask residents to increase taxes to fund improvements, as Jackson County did this year to help the Chiefs and baseball's Kansas City Royals upgrade their stadiums. "This type of project will need to be self-sustaining in terms of revenue generation," he said. But Olathe's proposal also put legislators in the awkward position of considering changes in STAR bond laws only a year after they rewrote them to close perceived loopholes used by developers of the Village West and Kansas Speedway projects in Wyandotte County. 19 DAYS UNTIL GRADUATION Have you planned your party yet?

Instead, he said he often brainstormed with players and, with his guidance, his players were able to make adjustments and improve themselves. Sophomore third baseman Erik Morrison's 2005 season stats, compared to 2006 (before Tuesday's game and with 11 games still in regular season): Tucker is currently an assistant coach for the Kansas baseball team, but his background in coaching can be traced back to Sweden, where he was a player and a coach. He also spent three summers overseas as a Major League Baseball Envoy Coach in Africa, France and Germany. "I got to see different cultures, views, people and be around baseball. It's fun to network with people all over the world that just have one thing in common - baseball." Tucker said. "It was a great experience. I wouldn't change it for the world." Away from the diamond, Tucker is a beach boy surrounded by an ocean of wheat and sunflowers. Tucker, a San Luis Obispo, Calif., native, would love nothing more than to return to coastal California someday as a head coach at the collegiate level.

Randall Sanders/KANSAN BUNT 'EM OVER Kansas: Watch NHL playoffs MATT WILSON mwilson@kansan.com --- Now that the NFL draft is over after three months of dead-horse abuse, sports fans can focus on the most entertaining two months in professional competition. Of course, I'm talking about the NHL playoffs. Before you quit reading, think about this: the Edmonton Oilers, the Western Conference's eighth seed, eliminated the Detroit Red Wings On top of that, the West's No. 2 seed also lost when the Dallas Stars were bounced by the Colorado Avalanche in five games. eight seed, eliminate the Boston red wings — the best team in the regular season — in a best-of-seven series. The series marked the seventh time in the past 13 years that a No. 8 beat a No. 1. Hockey also has sudden-death overtime in playoff games that can, and often does, go on until the wee hours of the morning. You'd be surprised at how fun it is to be gooey-tired with a few buddies because the game that started at 8 p.m. continued into your politics class the next day. Where else can you find that kind of parity and excitement? Certainly not in the NBA. Well, maybe in the past, but the days of Dikembe Mutombo and the Denver Nuggets beating the mighty Seattle SuperSonics are over, thanks to the league making the first round a seven-game series rather than a five-gamer in 2003. The NFL has the best situation for upsets with its one-game format, but home-field advantage is so influential to the outcome of a game in football that it rarely happens. That is, of course, unless you're the Kansas City Chiefs, and going 13-3 in the regular season seems to guarantee a home loss to a lower-seeded team in the playoffs. Baseball? Forget about it. Only four teams from each league reach the postseason, so all of the teams are closely matched at that point. Even a five-game first round has trouble producing a big surprise in that situation. So why is the NHL so upset-friendly? Goaltending. A team can ride a hot goalie all the way to the Stanley Cup. The last finals featured the sixth-seeded Calgary Flames against the top seed in the East, the Tampa Bay Lightning. Calgary had red-hot Mikka Kiprusoff in net, and he pushed them past the top three teams in the West. Despite the difference in regular-season performance, the Flames forced seven games before bowing to the Lightning. Only Nikolai Khabibulin, the hotter of the two goalies, stopped Kiprusoff and the Flames from hoisting the Cup.

I have some of the agenda for the curators' Thursday and Friday meeting at the University of Missouri-St. Louis includes a session on intercollegiate athletics billed as "board development." Unlike the March 26 meeting — which came hours before Alden introduced Mike Anderson of Alabama-Birmingham as Missouri's new basketball coach — this week's discussion will take place in public. COLUMBIA, Mo. — Five weeks ago, University of Missouri-Columbia athletics director Mike Alden emerged with his job barely intact after a closed meeting of university curators. previously have suggested that Alden and his peers at the other three campuses report directly to University of Missouri system President Elson Floyd, rather than their respective chancellors. in public Some curators, including John M.

WEDNESDAY, MAY 3, 2006 In an interview with The Associated Press on Tuesday, Carnah stopped short of suggesting that sort of change, which was widely opposed on the campuses and among the public. puses and among the people. But his comments suggest that for curators, the issue of athletics management in Columbia and across the University of Missouri system is far from over. "We're not taking charge of the athletic departments," he said. "That's a sore point. But we are going to look at them to tell us what's going on." ten or whatever, at minimum, Carnahan said, curators needed updates on campus sports business at most or all of their meetings, which are held every two months. He wants to compare the Missouri system's sports management structure with those in other states, such as Texas and Illinois. Carnahan also wants the curators, a group of both Democratic and Republican political appointees, to scrutinize athletic finances further to determine possible cost savings through program consolidation. "I want to see what works on other campuses and what doesn't work," he said. Carnahan acknowledged that he and his colleagues remain concerned about Alden's handling of the mid-February resignation of Quin Snyder in the middle of his seventh season as the Tigers men's basketball coach. men's basketball courier Snyder+, who received a $574,000 buyout, said he was forced out by Alden with six games to go and received the news from Gary Link, a Tigers broadcaster and Alden assistant.

LOUIS — If not for Junior Spivey's poor spring training, Hector Luna would likely be in the minor leagues trying to fight his way back to the St. Louis Cardinals. Instead, he was one of the first-month surprises for a team off to another good start. Luna has shaken off a spring performance that was nearly as bad, impressing with his overall skills and versatility. "He knew he had a real good opportunity to win a job and he didn't take advantage in spring training." teammate Albert Pujols said. "He didn't win that job and he didn't have a good spring training. "But now this is the season, and when we need it he's coming through for us." if he's coming through it. Luna, 26, was mostly a bit-part player the last two seasons after the Cardinals took him in the Rule 5 draft from Cleveland in 2004. He's basically been splitting time at second base with Aaron Miles, and was batting .362 with a home run and six RBIs. six RBIs. He has a pair of three-hit games, multiple hits in six of 12 starts, and seven hits in 12 at-bats with runners in scoring position. He's also played well in the field. This performance is nothing like spring training when he batted only .207 and committed four errors, failing to seize a spot when the Cardinals gave him every opportunity with 58 spring at-bats. bats. "Junior and me, I didn't know how that was going to work out," Luna said. "I feel a lot better now. Given new life when Spivey was outrighited to Triple-A Memphis to try to recapture the game that put him in the All-Star Game in 2002, Luna has looked more comfortable anywhere the Cardinals have put him than in either of his earlier seasons. now.

Tucker said the experience was difficult because baseball was new to so many of the players he coached. Erik Morrison Sophomore third baseman His most memorable moment abroad came during his time in Africa. He said the country's baseball resources were so terrible, his teams often practiced on old soccer fields with a limited amount of baseballs. But before he left, a catcher he coached in the All Africa Games was drafted by the Milwaukee Brewers. Tucker said he not only felt good for getting the player out of a third world country to make something of himself in America, but also for the country, which revolved around the hopes and dreams of this single baseball player. "To see a guy that came from nothing, but had the pure ability and the heart to finally get a shot for someone to take him was — I can't even describe it." Tucker said. As much as Tucker enjoyed his travels as a coach, he said that when he moved to Kansas to coach alongside Kansas coach Ritch Price, he had moments of doubt as to whether Kansas was the place for him. Tucker said the offseason was the hardest on him because he was so far away from the people he usually spent time with outside of baseball. To make matters worse, he could no longer take part in his favorite hobby — surfing. But during the season, he felt right at home. "Once baseball season got going, it was where I wanted to be, and I knew that's what I wanted to do and I can't ask for any better coaches to be around," Tucker said. As an assistant coach at Kansas, Tucker's responsibilities are coaching hitters and outfielders. His maxim is that he will help any player, at any time. And when he works with them, he combines his coaching theories with what the player is comfortable with. On several occasions after games this season, Kansas hitters gave Tucker credit for their performances. Senior outfielder Matt Baty said once the team started taking his advice, it saw results. Sophomore third baseman Erik Morrison batted .221 as a freshman with just three runs and a 319 slugging percentage. Fifty games into his sophomore season, Morrison is experiencing anything but a sophomore slump. Instead, with Tucker's help, Morrison's batting average is up to .285, including 11 home runs and a slugging percentage of .536. "He doesn't really try to hammer too much stuff in your brain," Morrison said. "He lets you make your choices, make your decisions at what you want to do, what you think you need to do. If we want to come down here and hit at one in the morning, that guy will be down here to hit with us. He'll do anything for us." Tucker said success stories like Morrison were the most rewarding part of the job. "When they flourish in a game and they get it done, they might give you a little wink or point at you to kind of say, 'Hey, thanks,' it makes it all worth it," Tucker said. Price has known Tucker for years and praised his dedication to his job. Price said he thought of Tucker, 35, as one of the best young coaches in America. He pointed to Tucker's ability to get the most out of his players. "He has a great personality for teaching hitting." Price said. "He's not overly intense, he's not overbearing. He's very calm in his demeanor and his approach. I think he's a really good teacher." Tucker's coaching days abroad appear to be over, but with the connections Tucker has made along with his lengthy résumé, he's already considered where his next step up the coaching ladder might take him. Tucker would be reunited with family, friends and beaches. However, the chance to remove "assistant" from his job title might be the deciding factor. Price gave Tucker permission to coach Little Falls of the New York Collegiate Baseball League this summer and return to Kansas in the fall, but Tucker said he would ultimately like to return to the west coast to coach someday. "I know, wherever I go, it's not going to be as good as it is here, but at the same time, I want to find my own identity at one point," Tucker said. "Every coach wants to move on and be a head guy somewhere and that's kind of my goal." Randall Sanders/KANSAN Assistant coach Kevin Tucker is in his second season under head coach Ritch Price. Before joining the Jayhawks, Tucker served in a myriad of coaching positions around the country and the world. — Edited by Lindsey St. Clair KANSAS CAMPUS CAMPUS cam she’ll never remeber this but... campus cam will!

Morrison later came home on the Spires first of two errors on the evening. Regardless of the score, the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics school from Leavenworth was outhitting Kansas, 2-1. That only lasted four innings. Kansas scored three runs on pitcher No. 4, Matt Reitemeir, in the bottom of the fourth inning. The Spires sent a new pitcher to the mound every inning, eight in all. ning, eight inning. "It's weird," Morrison said of the constant Saint Mary pitching changes. "At this level you should be able to make an adjustment from pitcher to pitcher, but it definitely throws you off when they're coming in with a different guy every inning." Morrison again crossed the plate in his team's second scoring rally of the evening after freshman first baseman Preston Land crushed a double to center field that put them both on base with nobody out. A pair of sacrifice flies scored Morrison and sophomore designated hitter Brock Simpson to level the score at 5-0 at the halfway mark. Afenir's RBI double in the sixth was the last run Kansas scored as the team put more focus into pitching than hitting in the last game before the Texas series this weekend. texas series this week. Junior left San Land (5-6) made his first midweek start of the season. He is scheduled to throw his second midweek start next Wednesday against Creighton. In his pre-scripted three-inning start, Land didn't allow a run or a hit and struck out four. "I'm trying to get his confidence level back," Price said of his usual Friday night starter. With that in mind, a change in the weekend rotation is essential. Price said on Tuesday night that freshman left-hander Nick Czyz will step into the rotation for Land against No. 7 Texas this weekend. The victory brought Kansas' record to 7-0 in midweek. hope gams. "We're not skipping a beat," Morrison said about the transition from Saint Mary to Texas. "We're going to Austin just like we left off on Sunday. We're going to leave it all on the field, give it everything we've got and the best team will prevail." Baseball Notes: Sophomore second baseman Ryne Price entered the game in the top of the seventh inning. Price underwent wrist surgery to repair a broken hamate bone on April 14. Coach Price said Ryne Price would see time as a late-inning defensive substitute against Texas this weekend. SPORTS Reds win in comeback — Edited by Matt Wilson MLB BY JOE KAY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS CINCINNATI Javier Valentin watched the ball leave his bat and fly right toward second baseman Aaron Miles, giving the pinch-hitter a momentary fright. The way the Cincinnati Reds are playing, he should have known better. Valentin's liner cleared the drawn-in infield and drove in the winning run in the bottom of the ninth inning Tuesday, sending the Reds to a 3-2 victory and a two-game sweep of the St. Louis Cardinals. "It was going straight to the second baseman," Valentin said, amazed by what had happened. "Then it went like this." Valentin made a curve with his hand, simulating the way the ball dodged Miles' glove by mere inches before landing safely on the outfield grass. "It found a hole," Valentin said. "It's good enough for me." Adam Dunn and Edwin Encarnacion added solo homers for the Reds (19-8), who overtook the defending World Series champion Chicago White Sox for best record in the majors. "We can play with anybody," Valentin said. "If we continue to play the way we're playing now, we're going to be there." He meant the playoffs, of course, a place the Reds haven't been in 11 years. They haven't even had a winning record the last five years, their deepest such slump in a half-century. it's going to take a lot more to get them back to the postseason — the rotation is still a concern, and the bullpen is still inconsistent. But by taking two of three from the Astros and then the two-game series from St. Louis, the Reds felt a little confidence coming on. "When you face the two best teams in the division, it means a lot to win four out of five," manager Jerry Narron said. Austin Kearns started the winning rally with a leadoff single off Brian Falkenborg (0-1), who was called up from Triple A Memphis before the game. The right-hander hit Brandon Phillips with his next pitch After Jason LaRue's sacrifice bunt advanced the runners, Valentin took two pitches in the dirt, then lined the game-ending single, raising his fist as he headed for first. Teammates pounded on him shortly after he touched the base. Todd Coffey (2-0) struck out John Gall with two runners aboard in the ninth to keep it tied at 2. The Cardinals' starting lineup was missing Albert Pujols and Jim Edmonds. Pujols, who leads the majors with 14 homers and 32 RBIs, irritated his back on a defensive play last week and got a day of rest — his first this season. Right-hander Sidney Ponson blanked theNL's highest-scoring offense — six runs per game — until Dunn hit a solo homer off the right-field foul screen in the sixth and Edwin Encarnacion followed with a tying homer. "Like I said after my last start, it's how you finish," Ponson said. "And I didn't finish good." CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B This year, any number of teams could win the title. That would also be the case in the NBA if someone from each team could sit on top of the rim and swat away shots as they approach the basket. With the current rules of basketball, however, only San Antonio, Dallas and Detroit have a real opportunity. Baseball is similar to hockey because of the influence a dominant pitcher can have on a game, and defenders have gloves, but the economics of the sport allow only the same handful of teams to compete on a yearly basis. Column That leaves us with hockey. Embrace it, Kansas. Just because we don't have an NHL team around here doesn't mean we can't enjoy the theatrics the playoffs provide.

"But they are a very talented group and a team to be reckoned with." WEDNESDAY, MAY 3.2006 Bunge said that the in-state rivalry factor was not something her team was going to be concerned with, but she stressed the importance of the rest of the regular season. Including the Wichita State games, the Jayhawks have only four games left on their schedule — the other two are against Iowa State this weekend — before postseason play begins. "We're going to find out what this team is made of." Bunge said. "It's time to take care of business." Edited by Lindsay St. Clair NATIONAL Edited by Kathryn Anderson Pilot failed to see ice on plane BY JENNIFER TALHELM THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Board members issued several recommendations and renewed appeals to the Federal Aviation Administration to require all pilots to feel their aircraft's wings for ice and to train pilots on how to fly in winter weather conditions. NTSB members met to decide the probable cause of the Nov. 28, 2004, crash that killed 14-year-old Teddy Ebersol, the pilot and a flight attendant. WASHINGTON - A pilot's decision to visually inspect, but not to feel, the wings of his plane to check for ice caused a 2004 airplane crash in Colorado that killed the son of NBC Sports executive Dick Ebersol and two others, National Transportation Safety Board members concluded Tuesday. "We have too long been advocating changes ... This is a tragedy that should not have happened." Mark Rosenker Acting NTSB chairman The NTSB has repeatedly asked the FAA to issue recommendations on checking for ice on wings. wings. "We have too long been advocating changes," said Mark Rosenker, acting NTSB chairman. "It's on our most-wanted list. This is a tragedy that should not have happened." The plane crashed shortly after taking off from the Montrose airport on Nov. 28, 2004. Other victims were pilot Luis Polanco-Espaillat, 50, and flight attendant Warren Richardson III, 36. At the time, the temperature was below freezing and there was snow on the ground and slush on the runway. NTSB investigators said Tuesday they had repeatedly warned pilots to check for ice on the wings, even if it wasn't visible, by running their hands along the surface. According to the cockpit recorder, the pilot said "Looks clear to me." Post Comments | Join Discussions Roommates stuck to the couch?

Big crash at Talladega leaves drivers fuming BY JENNA FRYER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS CONCORD, N.C. — Mark Martin doesn't like racing at Talladega Superspeedway, and he's pretty sure most of his rivals feel the same way. "If you take a poll, and the guys weren't being politically correct and were telling you the truth, then only about five or six of them would say they had a good time racing at Talladega," Martin said Tuesday, a day after he was caught in a 15-car pileup at Talladega. Tamadega. Restrictor-plate racing is volatile, to say the least. Getting to the finish requires as much luck as it does skill, and drivers are constantly on alert trying to In Monday's rain-postponed race, it came ridiculously early. Only nine laps in, to be exact. avoid the eventual "Big One." KANSANCLASSIFIEDS It happened when five drivers decided to line up door to door across the track and jostle for position. Five-wide racing is never a good idea, no matter what the track. what the track. But at Talladega, where the cars use horsepower-sapping restrictor plates to keep speeds under 200 mph, it's particularly dangerous. Drivers can't separate from one another, so everyone is in a tight pack and one slight bobble can wipe out half the field. the field. Even Tony Stewart, who has finished second in six of the last 11 Talladega races, was frustrated with the foolish on-track actions of NASCAR's newest stars. To make it to the finish, Stewart made a mental checklist of which drivers to avoid. If he closed in on that driver, he faded far back in the field for his own protection.

During the event, people were able to pay to throw tennis balls at a target in an attempt to dunk a Sigma Chi member into a pool of water. The event was part of the fraternity's week long "Derby Days" celebration. Dunk-A-Sig and other Derby Days events are held to raise money for the Children's Miracle Network and the Huntsman Cancer Institute. FOOTBALL Chiefs lineman ready for one last run at title BY DOUG FUCKER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Willie Roaf's mammoth body just turned 36 and he's feeling spry as a cat. No more sore hamstrings. No more aching knees. And, most importantly to Kansas City fans with dreams of a Super Bowl — or at least their first playoff win in 13 years — no more thoughts of retirement. If Larry Johnson is going to rush for 2,000 yards and the Chiefs' aging offense is going to make one last run at a championship, then the Pro Boil left tackle does not want to be left out. "I feel good," he said. I'm working with the young guys. I'm still strong. I just have to make sure I keep running and take care of my conditioning." He's even working about as hard as he ever did in postseason conditioning drills. Stopping for an interview on Tuesday after a vigorous workout, his massive upper torso was drenched with swpat. going to be his 14th season of trading body blows with very large, very aggressive men who every year seem to get younger and younger. He's also impressed with first-year head coach Herm Edwards. It was a conversation with his new boss that helped persuade Roaf — who turned 36 on April 16 — to come back for what is "I had a meeting with coach Edwards. He's a great coach," Roaf said. "He's been around, played in the league a long time. It made sense to come back next year and give it another chance. Talking to him, I just thought we had some unfinished business." Golfer's book spares little BY DOUG FERGUSON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS That would be "Sierra," as in Sierra Tucson, the Arizona clinic where Daly spent three weeks in January 1993 after trashing his Colorado house so badly the police were called. CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Typical of how he plays, John Daly holds nothing back in his new book. Clearly, this isn't the stock variety of PGA Tour player autobiographies. "John Daly: My Life In And Out of the Rough" will be in bookstores Monday, and no one will mistake it for Ben Hogan's book on the fundamentals of modern golf. "It's the truth. I'm not going to sidestep anything," Daly said Tuesday. "It brings back memories of stupid stuff I've done in my life, and good stuff. It was honest." But all anyone really needs to know about Daly is this — he named his second daughter after a rehab center. PGA There are stories of how he lost 60 pounds in college by drinking a fifth of whiskey and smoking three packs of cigarettes per day. One of the longest chapters is devoted to sexual exploits with his four wives and a woman he calls "Almost Ex No. 4." In a harrowing account, he writes about the time his father put a gun to Daly's head in a drunken rage. And it is sure to enhance his grip-and-rip-it reputation. Some highlights: — He got disqualified from a junior event in Atlanta when officials found a bottle of whiskey in his bag. — Forced to lose 60 pounds at Arkansas if he wanted to play on his college team, he once went three days without hardly any food, drinking four bottle- of whiskey until he passed out in his room and had to be taken to the emergency room. "But you know what? My cigarettes-popcornwhiskey diet worked." Daly wrote. "The pounds just peeled right off. By Christmas, I lost 65 pounds, I probably ought to have written a diet book or something." He said he has lost between $50 million and $60 million during 12 years of heavy gambling and owed $4 million to casinos until he won the 1995 British Open, which enabled him to pay off the debt. Daly says Callaway Golf took care of a $1.7 million gambling debt when he signed an endorsement deal in 1997, after his second stint in alcohol rehab. The second trip to rehab was the Betty Ford Center. For those wondering, Daly's next child was a boy. No doubt, the book is causing great consternation at PGA Tour headquarters, where commissioner Tim Finchem rarely misses the chance to talk to players about upholding their clean image. Finchem called Daly on Monday to discuss the book. Daly called their conversation "positive," whatever that means. "It's tough to match what the tour wants with what the publisher wants." Daly said. Finchem said Monday that nothing in the book violates PGA Tour regulations. The only violation in question falls under "conduct unbecoming a professional," although such conduct isn't spelled out in the players' handbook. Even if it were, Daly has an answer for that, too. "My life is unbecoming of a professional," he said. "It's hard to state it in anybody else's words." Will the book cost him any fans? "I hope not," Daly said Lower student loan payments by up to 50%!

PAGE 2B THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN VOL. 116 ISSUE 146 ▼ LAWRENCE WWW.KANSAN.COM THURSDAY,MAY 4,2006 Center plans for new facility Salvation Army discusses new services offered BY KRISTEN JARBOE jkjarboe@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Representatives of the Salvation Army agreed fundraising for a new building will be completed by the end of this year. A public meeting was held Wednesday night to discuss eight new points to add to the site plan for the new location of the Salvation Army, at Haskell Avenue and 19th Street. One of the eight points that the Salvation Army touched on included what services the Salvation Army would provide, such as mental health services, recreational programs and recovery groups. It also said that services would be refused to homeless who came intoxicated. They then would be offered transportation to the Lawrence Community Shelter or the Lawrence Police Department. The Salvation Army also would "not knowingly admit sex offenders into the homeless rehabilitative residential program." Every person in the program would be screened by the KDI Offender Registry. Rebecca Simmons, director of social services for the Salvation Army, spoke on behalf of the various services that would be offered at the new location, because they weren't available before. She said that programs would help determine why the person was homeless and give hope to them not being homeless again. Helen Hartnett, KU assistant professor of social welfare and a member of the Community Commission on Homeless, said during public comment, that she was concerned with the new points being added because they involved other agencies that were not present at Wednesday's meeting. "I think the issue is broader than this, it is not just about one agency,not just one neighborhood," she said. Justine Burton, a Lawrence resident from the surrounding neighborhood of the new location, expressed concerns with the Salvation Army being near a park where families lived. SEE CENTER ON PAGE 6A "I fear that the park will become a haven for them." Burton said. "People like to hang out at the current Salvation Army, and I see that. I feel that if the new location is brought to the east side, the same thing is going to happen." Runner meets goal in one dav Friesner raised almost $4,000 for Jubilee Café, a program through the Center for Community Outreach that provides a restaurant-style breakfast to needy citizens every Tuesday and Friday morning. Richard Friesner, the Albuquerque, N.M., graduate student who ran back and forth on Jayhawk Boulevard Wednesday to encourage donations for Jubilee Cafe, reached — and surpassed — his goal of $3,000 about 8:45 that night. To reach his goal, Friesner was prepared to run for 72 hours with three two-hour breaks as his only rest. Patrick Ross Campus meters left unpaid Campus me KU students can't avoid their pink slips BY MICHAEL PHILLIPS mphillips@kansan.com KANSAI STAFF WRITER Wednesday was Becca Ingraham's lucky day. The meter she parked at on Daisy Hill ran out of time, but she escaped without a ticket. It's not an uncommon practice for KU students to not pay when they park at a meter. In fact, it's what a majority of students who park at meters do. A study commissioned by the Parking Department last year said that only 30 percent of the occupied parking meters on campus are paid at any given time. There are 262 meters total. PARKING TIME SEE METERS ON PAGE 3A A pink ticket placed on the windshield of a car parked in front of Watkins Medical Center signifies that the meter has expired. The red screen showed that the meter had timed out, resulting in a parking ticket.

Different fraternity and sorority national headquarters hire consultants to help advocate their organizations. Chapter consultants are typically representatives of a national organization who visit local chapters to assist with general chapter operations, special areas a chapter is focusing on, and recruitment efforts, said Laura Bauer, program director for fraternity and sorority life. Consultants spend four to five days with each chapter organization. Anna Clovis, Fairfax, Okla., alumna, is a full-time chapter consultant for Alpha Chi Omega. Clovis said she loved her job because it's a challenging, multi-fashioned position that allowed her to travel. She said you could look at the business like a frunchie of a chain restaurant. She works during her one-year contract to help out the different franchises, making sure they are on their feet. She said she spoke with each chapter about leadership, risk management and chapter management, and helped with any necessary tasks before moving on to the next. The position still has its difficulties. Clovis said it's temporary and it required a lot of change and flexibility. Bauer traveled as a consultant for Delta Zeta for the 2000-2001 school year. She said most people didn't get the opportunity in their jobs to travel and work with people across the country. An organization can hire anywhere between five and 15 consultants, who visit the different chapters at least once a semester. Clovis said the structure in her organization was unique in that she only conducted on-site visits 60 percent of her time, whereas most other organizations' consultants travel 100 percent of their time. The other 40 percent she works from her home in Lawrence. Bauer said the attributes picked up as a Greek consultant were transferable to other career paths. They must be adaptable to their environments, have good customer service skills and the ability to work with large groups. Fraternities also hire consultants. Scott Ferguson, interfraternity council president, said the fraternity chapter consultants had a two-year position, unlike the one-year positions offered for sorority chapter consultants. More information on chapter consultants and the process of becoming one can be found by contacting a specific national organization.

The sale gave shoppers the opportunity to purchase clothes, stickers and other University of Kansas merchandise at a discount rate. Jessica Hopkins, Bonner Springs senior, visited the sale when she got out of class yesterday. "Ilike to shop." Hopkins said, wearing a KU workout jacket. "Half my clothes are KU." Hopkins purchased baby clothes for a friend and a KU shirt for her dad. Steve Rhodes, assistant director of the KU Book Stores, said business had been good even though the weather wasn't. Rain forced bookstore employees to end the sale about 12:30 p.m. Wednesday, but Rhodes thought the sale would go until 4 p.m. today. He said hooded sweatshirts and $5 T-shirts were popular clothes, and most items were sold at a 50 percent discount or greater. NATION The annual sale is necessary, he said, because the bookstores need to move old items to make room for new merchandise in the fall. Unsold items from the sale will return to the bookstore. All sale proceeds go to student programs. NATION Victims of faked birth urged to come forward Edited by Cynthia Hernandez INDEPENDENCE, Mo. — Prosecutors pleaded Wednesday for victims of a scam in which a couple faked the birth of sextuplets to come forward so that charges could possibly be upgraded. Sarah and Kris Everson, of Grain Valley, appeared in Jackson County Circuit Court for a preliminary hearing, which was continued until June 21. The Eversons are charged with theft for soliciting gifts from neighbors after concocting a complex tale of their multiple births. more than $3,500. The amount was believed to be higher, he said, but authorities need those who gave to the couple to acknowledge they were scammed. Mike Sanders, the Jackson County prosecutor, said an investigation into how much the couple actually collected was ongoing, but the total was Charges could be upgraded if the tally were to reach $25,000. Paul Sakuma/ASSOCIATED PRESS Grain Valley community leaders have said Sarah, who is 45, and Kris, 34, came to them in March, saying they had delivered six critically ill babies and needed help. Within days of the story appearing on the front of the local paper here,The Examiner,the couple was barraged by questions from the media and ultimately admitted to reporters and police that the entire thing was a lie. They said they needed the cash. Four-year-old Taylor Yamahita brushes her teeth with Grest toothpaste at her home in Palo Atto, Calif., Wednesday.

One theory is that it's easier just to pay the fine than to put change in the meter. "There are lots of tickets because people are willing to pay the Ingraham, Lenexa freshman, said she usually tried to pay, but came up short at times. "Since it's like three minutes for a nickel, it doesn't do me much good," she said. Meter costs range from $1 an hour on Daisy Hill to $1.50 an hour at the Burge Union. price for the convenience of the spaces they want," the study said. According to the study, entitled Ten-Year Parking Strategy Final Report, the fine is viewed by some not as a penalty for breaking the law, but as the going rate for parking in a given spot. At the time of the study, in 2004, the fine was $5 for parking at an expired meter. It was recommended by the study that the department raise the penalty, and it is currently $10. It also offers a word of caution for students who think they can escape before finding a pink ticket on their car. More than one out of every three violators gets caught, making for what they study calls, a very efficient "capture rate." "I do know that there are students who prefer to use metered parking rather than buy a permit." she said. The University of Kansas also has an advantage over traditional meter sites, such as the city of Lawrence, because it is better at Cars can get ticketed multiple times in a day. Donna Hultine, director of parking services, said a vehicle could be re-ticketed every time it exceeded the posted length on a meter. If a non payer parks at a 20-minute meter, he can be ticketed every 20 minutes; at an hour-long meter, he can be ticketed every hour. Hultine said it was not unheard of for students to use the meters as an alternative to other parking lots. demanding payment for tickets. Students who don't pay a ticket are unable to enroll in classes. That threat appears to be what motivates students to pay the ticket. Within the first month after writing a ticket, 55 percent of the fines have been paid. Vince Meserko, Overland Park sophomore, belongs to that group. "I always try to pay right away and get it taken care of," he said. Other students take their time, but within one year, 87 percent of all tickets get paid. The study said those violations add up to $725,000 a year for the parking department. That is far more than the $90,000 in coins that people drop into the meter each year. Ingraham has contributed her fair share to both amounts. Since arriving at the University last semester, she said she had received at least four tickets. "I think I've paid more in parking tickets than I have for food or books," she said. — Edited by Meghan Miller CAMPUS Womyn to take back the night tonight After being rained out last week, the Womyn Take Back the Night event will take place Friday with a protest against violence towards women.

The driver was investigated for drunken driving. BAR & GRILL ku police When police showed up, Switzer was too drunk to distinguish his driver's license from other cards, so he handed his entire wallet to the officer. At left, a crowd waits in the rain Saturday night to get into It's Brothers Bar & Grill, 1105 Massachusetts St. Many KU students spend a big part of the weekend at local bars. Last year 83 KU students got in trouble with the law for drinking and driving. (above photo)Jared Gab/KANSAN (left photo)Anna Faltermier/KANSAN "I'm never going to drink and drive again." he said about his experience. "I can tell you that because it's just a huge hassle. It changes the way you live." Switzer, now a senior from Shawnee, was one of 83 KU students busted and punished for operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol in Lawrence in 2005. He and the other offenders learned that the costs go far beyond the fines, court costs, attorney fees and lost driving privileges. Those costs can include alcohol evaluations and counseling, drastically higher insurance premiums, and a diminished social life and future job prospects. The long process Dana Schongar, who tried to follow another car from a fraternity party to his friend's place at Highpointe Apartments at 6th and Iowa streets, ended up on the opposite side of the road curb asleep at the wheel at 6th and Kasold Drive. He was awakened by a cop tapping on his window. Schongar, Lenexa senior, had to take a field sobriety test, which he barely remembers other than that he failed it. What usually happens is walking a straight line, standing on one leg, and/or saying the ABC's backwards. Police are required to have special training to perform a breathalizer, and neither arresting officer did, so Switzer and Schongar had to go to jail to do it. Switzer's car was totaled, but Schongar's was OK. They couldn't leave their cars in the street, so they had to be towed. The Lawrence Police Department has cars towed by Hillcrest Wrecker and Garage Inc. at the owner's expense for a fee of $80. Both men had to wait 20 minutes before taking the breathalizer. J.C. Gilroy, a former policeman and Lawrence lawyer who specializes in operating under the influence cases, said that during that time the driver can't chew gum, eat or drink to make sure the test results aren't altered. If an uncertified officer performs the test, the evidence can't be used in court. before he will get an OUI. The legal limit for people under age 21 who have been drinking and driving is .02. If the blood alcohol content is between .02 and .08, a driver will get an OUI and lose his license for 30 days. If it's above .08, he will lose his license for one year. For a driver over 21, the blood alcohol content can be up to .08 Switzer was three weeks ahead of his 21st birthday. That means his blood alcohol content had to be less than 0.02 to pass the breathalizer test. His was. 196. He lost his license for a year. Driver's licenses are not taken away by the court; the Driver Control Bureau at the state level handles restricting of licenses. According to the Kansas Department of Transportation Web site, the cost of reinstating a suspended license is $100 for the first offense and goes up for each offense after that. Schongar escaped without losing his license only because the officer who performed the breathalizer did not show up for his court date, and his lawyer argued that it couldn't be proven that he was too intoxicated to drive without that officer present.

Bondsmen will bail people out for a charge of 10 percent of the bail, but neither got bailed out. If the driver doesn't show up in court for his arraignment, or first appearance, where the charges are formally read, a warrant for his arrest is issued, and he loses his bail money. Giltrud said. For people with more than one offense, diversions are almost never given, said Jerry Little, the Lawrence city prosecutor. The fine increases with each OUI, and the third is considered a felony and the case is moved from Municipal to District Court. Once out of jail, both men could drive until their arraignment dates. During that time, Schongar got a lawyer and Switzer applied for a diversion with the help of his lawyer father. Diversions usually require an alcohol evaluation, at least an eight-hour alcohol information school taught by a counselor, license suspension for a given amount of time depending on the age and blood alcohol content of the person, community service, payment of a fee for the diversion and generally staying out of trouble with the law for one year. Getting an OUI costs more than a fine, though the costs vary drastically for each person. Switzer had to do all of that except that he had individualized alcohol counseling over a longer period of time rather than eight hours in a class. After that time has passed and all requirements are met, the person can have the OUI taken off his record. Monetary losses Fines range from $500 to $1,000. Lawrence Municipal Court costs are $42 and bail costs vary. If a diversion is granted, the driver pays $150 for an alcohol prevention fund fee that goes toward his alcohol evaluation and at least $80 for the minimum eight-hour session. A lawyer charges between $500 and $750 for a diversion, Gilroy said. He charges $750, but if he has to go to court, it would be $1,000 to $1,500. The diversion fee, about $750, can vary as well, and the towing costs $80. Schongar said he paid $500 for bail, $1,500 for a lawyer, and $700 for a diversion, but escaped other fees because he did not lose his license. He said he had money saved up from working and could afford the cost without his parents' help. "It was a pretty nice chunk of my own change," he said. Another chunk of change OUI offenders will pay in the future, when they can start driving again, is a higher insurance premium — if they can get insurance at all. Switzer had to buy a bike and otherwise pay the cost of transportation to work or school. He will also eventually face the cost of buying a new car and possible trouble getting future jobs. Switzer is still feeling the Switzer is still feeling the economic impact of his OUI. Without a driver's license, he had to give up his high-paying waiter job at Carraba's Italian Grill. Instead, he now rides his red Trek mountain bike up the street from his apartment to his low-paying job at Mr. Goodcents, Bob lings and Kasold. MIDLAND PRODUCTIONS WHEAT BEER AND BREWING DIRECT COSTS - Fine: $500 - $1000 - Bail: $ 500 - Fee: $ 150 - Lawyer: $500 - $1500 - Diversion: $700 - Towing: $80 - Restart license: $100 Some insurance companies won't insure drivers who have an OUI, especially those between the ages of 16 and 21, Carrie Sink of Charlton Manley Insurance Agency said. Of the nine insurance companies her agency represents, only two, Progressive and Victorias, will insure OUI offenders. Sink said an OUI could bump a driver's insurance premium from $1,500 per year to more than $2,000. Switzer is still feeling the economic impact of his OUI. Without a driver's license, he had to give up his high-paying waiter job at Carrabba's Italian Grill in Kansas City. Instead, he now rides his red Trek mountain bike up the street from his apartment in Meadowbrook Apartments, Bob Billings Parkway and Crestline Drive, to his low-paying job at Mr. Goodcents, Bob Billings and Kasold. He said he even rides his bike to bars occasionally. Although he did get work, he said some applications asked whether he had received an OUI. Jennifer Pozzuolo of Mantpower Inc., a job placement company in Lawrence, said not having a driver's license can restrict where you work. Because many jobs may require driving machinery, she said some employers won't hire anyone with a criminal record in the last seven to 10 years. David Gaston of KU Career Services said getting an OUI can even affect job prospects after college graduation. He said most companies may still hire offenders as long as they are up front about the OUI on the application. Many employers hire out background checks, he said, so if you don't declare a diverted OUl, you should hire someone yourself to do a background check and make sure they don't find it on your record before not including it on the application. Sales jobs that involve driving are usually not an option because the company may not be able to insure the person. Social impact "I'm still feeling the burn every day, through almost any activity," he said a year and three months after his QUI. Switzer's new job at Mr. Goodcents gives him less money to spend on dating, which doesn't happen anyway unless the girl is willing to provide transportation. Switzer's OUI has limited his social life. He worked his 20 hours of community service in his hometown of Shawnee during the summer. "What I thought was going to be a huge bummer was actually cool," he said about working at a drop-off for old furniture, clothing and other items to be resold for profit benefiting the poor. He liked the people he worked with, and it was a humbling experience, he said.

That means no fights, no drugs, no buying alcohol for minors, no drinking and driving, no stealing, or any other minor offense. "Any time there could be police involved, I want to not be involved," he said, explaining that he stays away from rowdy house parties most of the time. Both of Switzer's roommates have also had past OUIs, so they help him out with rides. Five Schongar said that he still goes out and drinks, but never drives afterward. He works as a bartender at Fatso's, 1016 Massachusetts St., and lives within blocks of downtown. or six months before he lost his license, his roommate Scott got his back. Switzer drove him around, so now Scott is reciprocating. He said family and friends who in the beginning offered him rides are becoming "annoyed" six months later. "I walk when His parents were glad he wasn't hurt, discouraged him from continuing to drink, and have refused to help him buy another car when his yearlong license suspension ends. ever I go and if I can't, I stay there," he said. Schongar said because he paid for his OUI by himself, he and his parents are on good terms. They recognize it as a mistake, and he proved that he could handle it on his own. outpatient counseling. He said he offers himself as an example of why his friends shouldn't drink and drive. Psychology and treatment "The alcohol is more important than something else in their life," he said about such binge drinkers, who are more likely to be males than females partially because of peer pressure. lack said, "They usually think they Although 83 KU students were busted for driving drunk last year, many more did it without ticket or injury, according to Lawrence alcohol counselor Scott Black. Black said. They usually think they are fine. That's 50 percent of the cases I run into. Switzer said he hasn't given up drinking. He tried to be sober for a few weeks, and proudly told his counselor he'd made it, only to find out true sobriety takes at least six months. Discouraged by staying home much of the time by himself, and by his friends' lack of support, he decided to go out again, and that he can't go out without drinking. "It's just not me," he said. "We know there are about 400 DUIs a month," Black said. "There should be 10,000. They've all done it before. They just got caught now." Black said women get drunk faster because they don't have as strong a stomach lining, so alcohol goes more quickly to their bloodstream and brain. For men, it takes longer, which can ultimately be worse because they can drink much more. Those who get caught spend time with counselors like Black. A first-time OUI offender with no criminal record usually attends an eight-hour alcohol education class after an alcohol evaluation. Those with alcohol abuse problems face extensive By the time Swiss took the breathalizer, his blood alcohol was at .196, way over the .08 legal limit. His alcohol counsel told him later he should not have been able to even walk out the door and get in his car to drive home that night, much less be making good decisions about driving driving. "I wasn't con-cerned about my ability to drive home," he said, because he'd done it so many times before. He said hard to concentrate and be attentive by turning off the radio and gripping the wheel at 10 o'clock and 2 o'clock. Switzer said he hasn't given up drinking. He tried to be sober for a few weeks, and proudly told his counselor he'd made it, only to find out true sobriety takes at least six months. Black said, "They usually think they are fine. That's 50 percent of the cases I run into." That was what happened to Schongar. He'd been at a Phi Kappa Theta fraternity party drinking beer and hard liquor but lost track of how much. After the party, he was supposed to follow another car to his friend's place at Highpointe. Somewhere along the way, he got lost and ended up about a mile away, where he had driven up on the curb, and then passed out. Discouraged by staying home much of the time by himself, and by his friends' lack of support, he said he decided to go out again, and that he can't go out without drinking. "It's just not me," he said. People who binge drink black out, make bad decisions and often get into trouble. He said he remembered bits and pieces of failing his field sobriety test when the cop got there, and then sobered up in jail waiting to take the breathalizer. "This is all speculation," he said. "I don't remember too much of that night." Switzer survived his wreck with few scratches and Schongar got lucky and avoided hitting anything, but others were not so fortunate. According to the Kansas Department of Transportation, 116 died in alcohol-related automobile accidents in 2004. Danger and prevention When that happens, an OUI offender can end up in prison for years if someone dies because the driver was drunk. The worst was when he was coroner for Linn County. A young woman drove home from a bar drunk, didn't make a curve in the road, and her car went airborne over a barbed-wire fence and into a field. In midair, she was thrown from the vehicle and it landed on top of her, killing her instantly. Jerry Little, city prosecutor, said if a drunken driver has an accident that kills someone, he would be charged with either voluntary or involuntary manslaughter. Hunt said when he stood above her looking down, her face looked almost normal, but when he bent over and looked at her from the side, he saw her head had been squashed to two inches thick and her brain was living next to her in the grass. "Rarely do people who are drinking put on their seat belt," Hunt said. Brian Hunt, one of Lawrence Memorial Hospital's emergency room doctors, has seen and treated many injuries from drunken driving. Because intoxicated people can't think clearly when deciding whether to drink and drive, Scott Black, the alcohol counselor, suggests finding a signal that can trigger your memory about the hazards of an OUI. One of his patients put an orange flashing light on her steering wheel that said "DUI" so that when she got in the car, she would see it and remember not to drive.

EL Salvador Bulgaria Source: University of North Carolina at Charlotte STATE House says no to sex offender bill BY CARL MANNING ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER TOPEKA - A compromise version of a politically popular measure to strengthen penalties for child molesters and other sex offenders was shot down Wednesday by House members who disapproved of it being tied to a proposal to allow private prisons in Kansas. As a compromise bill, each chamber had to accept or reject it without making changes. The House last year refused to debate the issue of private prisons and did not take it up this year. Senators previously approved a private prison bill but later insisted it be bundled with the tougher penalties for child molesters, known as "Jessica's Law." The 74-49 vote sent the measure back to House-Senate negotiators with an eye toward dividing the two issues so they can be voted on separately. The Senate approved the bundled bill Tuesday by a 33-7 margin. "We'll go back to conference and ask them to strip private prisons out," said Rep. Mike O'Neal, his chamber's lead negotiator. Senate Majority Leader Derek Schmidt said his chamber stands firm. "The Senate position is they need to be a packaged deal," said Schmidt, R-Independence. As for private prisons doubling justice Law, Schmidt said, "That would be a terrible outcome. That's why we need to reach agreement on enacting both pieces." "You can pass the policy but not build the beds which would be irresponsible," said O'Neal, R-Hutchinson. Senators argue the two should be tied because Jessica's Law will result in more people imprisoned and private prisons will be an option the state could consider rather than building its own facilities. Leading the opposition was Rep. Kenny Wilk, R-Lansing, who said, "They're trying to force-feed us. The House wants a clean vote on Jessica's Law."

The current location is not big enough to hold all the activities the Salvation Army wants to offer, Wesley Dalberg, pastor and administrator of the Salvation Army, said. The current Salvation Army location, 946 New Hampshire, is 50 years old. Dalberg said the facility was inadequate, such as not having handicapped parking spaces available. The current building will not be retained at all by the Salvation Army and will be sold. The site plan for the new location was approved in May 2004 and an extension was made in May 2005. The Salvation Army has been continuing its efforts to fundraise. "We can't start digging a hole in the ground until we have all the money," Richard Zinn, member of the Salvation Army advisory board, said at the meeting. The new location is also easily accessible by public transportation. He noted that they prefer to build in a residential neighborhood because they are trying to reach other people, not just the homeless. Approving the new site plan with the new points will appear on the city commission agenda at any time now. However, city commission meetings will not be held May 23 or May 30.

Nonetheless, we cannot neglect another marginalized demographic that hasn't made gains in this area — those from low-income backgrounds. Historically, this population has not attended college as much as their middle-or upper-class counterparts, but has been able to secure low-skill, well-paying jobs. Now, the labor force has changed and having a college degree is practically required to secure any sort of high-paying employment. Unfortunately, not having a degree remains the norm for people from low-income backgrounds with one of the biggest deterrents being — what else — not enough money. PAGE 7A Fortunately for low-income families in Kansas, the state legislature is considering House Bill 2722, a measure that would establish a three-year pilot program that would give an incentive for lower-class families to establish higher education savings accounts. Those who qualify, meaning Kansas residents that do not have a household income that exceeds 200 percent of the federal poverty level, could start to apply for the program beginning fiscal year 2007. The families can invest as much as they want, but each year the government will only match a maximum of $600 a year with $100 as the minimum. In the first year the program would allow no more than 400 applications. As of the end of March, the bill was in the Ways and Means committee of the state legislature. Already, 35 states have enacted Issue: A House bill designed to help lowincome families save money for education Stance: We commend the legislature for aiding this demographic some similar form of legislation, according to the Center for Social Development. This is a proven, viable solution for low-income families because it helps reinforce the importance of higher education for these families, which might not have been the case otherwise especially when their children might be the first in the family to attend college. This program also promotes financial responsibility and gives low-income families aid where it is most desperately needed. If these people are willing enough to dedicate portions of their income to helping their children have a promising future, then they should be supported in that endeavor. In the end, everyone benefits from this because after the kids graduate from college, they can contribute to a potential rise in new jobs, increased earnings, new or improved homes and reduced reliance on welfare. The Kansas legislature should be commended for considering this bill and encouraged to pass it into law as soon as possible. Support it for the improvements it could make for the local economy, if not for the benefit to others, as well.

NEVER AGAIN AGAIN AGAIN AGAIN AGAIN AGAIN AGAIN HOLOCAUST RWENIANS UGRAINE CAMBODIA RWANDA BALKANS DARFUR Daff 3.2.06 THE DEAD MONES REQUIRED Illegal immigration needs revision, then enforcement COMMENTARY The problem of illegal immigration is once again in the news. Demonstrations on Monday showed that this isn't a problem that will go away anytime soon. But there seems to be no clear-cut way to solve it. One side of the debate advocates such severe measures as building a wall across the U.S.-Mexico border and making it a felony to illegally enter this country. The other side seems to advocate total amnesty and a complete disregard for our laws. For most people, neither of these two extremes seems attractive. However, there's no reason why these two views can't be combined to create a fair and comprehensive immigration plan that is amenable to both sides. First, we must recognize that immigrants who are here already are important to our economy. We can't just go on a crusade to round up all illegal immigrants and bus them back home. Instead, we need to give illegal immigrants the chance to become documented as guest workers and to get on the path to citizenship. Because they've already broken the law, they should be put at the back of the line for citizenship so that people who have already applied to immigrate legally aren't penalized for following the rules. Second, we must make it easier for people to immigrate legally to our country. Right now, quotas for legal immigrants are very low, and this is in part because the huge numbers of illegal immigrants who come to this country everyday. Once we get tough on the border, it will be easier, and probably necessary, to increase the The other thing that we will need to do to curtail illegal immigration is to make it unattractive to come to this country illegally. This will have to involve getting tough on employers who break the law by hiring illegal immigrants. After years of lax enforcement, the Bush administration seems to have gotten the message across that employers are as much at fault as illegal immigrants. The administration recently announced a tough stance on rogue emplovers. We should also begin to tax remittances sent to foreign countries by people who can't prove their citizenship. This will make it less attractive for illegal immigrants to earn a living in the United States and will also help to pay for the huge burden that they put on social services in this country. In sum, we should give illegal immigrants another chance to do the right thing and to become documented. We should also make it more attractive for immigrants to take the legal route to coming here. But we can't go on forever without enforcing our laws. Once we've given illegal immigrants the opportunity to make things right, we should start to make illegal immigration unattractive to those who wish to come here and also to those in this country that want to see illegal immigrants come here. In this way, we may not solve the problem entirely, but it will definitely be a good start. Goetting is a Leavenworth senior in political science and East Asian languages and culture.

The last message was "Will somebody fix the effing Mrs. E's menu Web page, please?" JOSHUA GOETTING opinion@kansan.com We should also begin to deport illegal immigrants. This doesn't mean that police should go out looking for them, but we should start to deport those illegal immigrants whom we find because they were pulled over for speeding, turned in by their neighbors, or otherwise come to the attention of law enforcement. Arl Ben, business manager 864-4462 or adddirector@kansan.com Patrick Ross; associate opinion editor 884-4924 or prox@kansan.com LETTER TO THE EDITOR One of the first things that we should do to crack down illegal immigration is to make it more difficult to cross into America. This doesn't have to include a giant barrier stretching from coast to coast, but it should involve a "virtual wall" that uses technology and increased law enforcement. After a period of time, though, say a year, we should start really cracking down on illegal immigration. By then, we will have acted in good faith with illegal immigrants and given them a chance, after they've already broken the law, to make things right by becoming documented. If they decide to continue to disregard the law after that, then it will be very difficult to have sympathy for them because there's only so much that can be done to help them if they refuse to play by the rules and obey the laws of our country.

I have no doubt the Founding Fathers would have included it in the Constitution — had they known about it. It wasn't until the 19th century that proportional representation was refined for European nations. Several U.S. cities have used PR, but the politicians have such a stranglehold on the elections that they refuse to cede any power to minor parties or even — gas! — the voters. TALK TO US Scarrow is a Humboldt senior in history. RYAN SCARROW opinion@kansan.com PETER HENDERSON On the surface, it would appear the Constitution is still serving us well. Absent a few episodes, the Constitution still seems the product of minds far ahead of their time. We figure the Founding Fathers got it right the first time, and that there is no better system of governance and we shouldn't think there might be. This is not what the Founding Fathers wanted. Thomas Jefferson called for a "permanent revolution," that each generation reconnect with the Constitution and breathe new life into it as deemed necessary by modern life. Case in point: proportional representation. Which is where proportional representation comes in. It's focused on apportioning legislative seats based on how many votes a party gets. If 60 percent of people vote for the Democrats, they should get 60 percent of the seats. If 10 percent vote Libertarian, then that tenth must be represented. ▼ COMMENTARY Proportional representation opens up the political spectrum. It forces accountability. It allows for constituencies of ideas rather than geographic space. It reduces negative campaigning as voters would have multiple choices who could win. As Hendrik Hertzberg of the New Yorker wrote, "If Americans hate politicians, maybe it because our chaotic pile of political systems offers so many perverse incentives for politicians to behave badly." To put it in real numbers, Republican representatives in 2004 got a 55 million to 52 million margin over Democrats, yet carried a 230-200 majority to completely shut out the minority party and their respective voters. In the Senate, Democrats actually got 44 million votes to the GOP's 39 million, yet not only did they not win the Senate, they lost seats. Consider that 98 percent of congressional incumbents are re-elected, despite stagnant approval ratings, and we see an electoral system that is woefully out of touch with its citizens. If you recall, our Congressmen and women are elected from single member districts based simply on getting a plurality of votes. This system works great for representing your city or region, but that's it. If 49 percent of the electorate votes for the other guy, they might as well have not even voted at all.

STATE Legislators continue talks on school finance BY JOHN MILBURN ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER Finding a compromise plan that will satisfy a Kansas Supreme Court mandate to increase spending on schools has fallen to three senators and three House members. TOPEKA - Legislators started negotiations Wednesday on school finance issues, after the House rejected a three-year, $532.7 million plan assembled a dav earlier. Negotiators reviewed the contents of a plan the Senate passed last week and one the House passed in March. No action was taken and more talks still were possible Thursday morning. "We will get something eventually" Maws said. "We have a Chevy and a Cadillac. I'm not going to say which is which," said Rep. Kathe Decker, (R-Clay Center), lead House negotiator. The Senate approved a plan last week to phase in a $541 The House plan, defeated 69-55, had the backing of Speaker Doug Mays, (R-Topeka), and other GOP leaders. He said there will be no more attempts to draft a new House plan to take into negotiations with senators. million increase in spending on public schools over three years. In March, a coalition of Democrats and moderate Republicans forced a three-year, $633 million plan through the House. Mays and Senate Majority Leader Derek Schmidt, (R-Independence), said negotiations could go quickly but were likely to get hung up over policy provisions sought by House members to make schools more accountable and to fulfill some members' desire to give local districts greater authority to increase property taxes. Mays and other GOP leaders could have initiated talks last week with the Senate over the final version of school finance legislation. But they wanted to have another debate, hoping to narrow the scope of the discussions — and ultimately the size of any final plan. NATION Both chambers would rely on existing state revenues to fund their proposals, though budget projections show the third year could cause the state to exhaust all available revenues and be faced with a deficit, something prohibited by state law. Last year, the Supreme Court ruled that the state wasn't spending enough on its public schools or distributing the dollars fairly. Schools pull non-diet sodas, downsize drinks PEPSI Mountain DEW Fruit works PEPSI Fruit works BY KAREN MATTHEWS ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER NEW YORK - Children will soon have to wait until school's out to pop the top on sugary soft drinks blamed for much of the rise in childhood obesity. Non-diet sodas will be yanked from schools, and other drinks will be downsized under a deal announced Wednesday by former President Bill Clinton and the nation's largest beverage distributors. Talesha Gardner, then 17, looks at the sodas for sale at Horlick High School in this Jan. 5, 2004, photo in Recine, Wis. In a deal announced Wednesday by the William J. Clinton Foundation, the nation's largest beverage distributors agreed to stop selling non-diet sodas to most public schools, where obesity has become a concern. "This is a truly bold step forward in the struggle to help 35 million young people lead healthier lives," said Clinton, whose foundation has targeted obesity in children for the past year. "This one policy can add years and years and years to the lives of a very large number of young people." The agreement, to be phased in over the next three years, was brokered by the Alliance for a Healthier Generation, a collaboration between the William Most elementary schools are already soda-free. But under the new deal, beverage companies agreed to sell only water, unsweetened juice and low-fat and non-fat milk to elementary and middle schools. Diet sodas and sports drinks will remain in high schools. "This is a truly bold step forward in the struggle to help 35 million young people lead healthier lives." Gregory Shaver/ASSOCIATED PRESS Bill Clinton Former President J. Clinton Presidential Foundation and the American Heart Association. It involves industry leaders Cadbury Schwepes PLC, Coca-Cola Co. and PepsiCo Inc. as well as the American Beverage Association, which together control 87 percent of the public and private school drink market. Officials said they hoped the other 13 percent would follow suit. Ann Cooper, an advocate for healthy school lunches who directs the food program for public schools in Berkeley, Calif., called the deal a good first step. "Any agreement that limits high-fructose corn syrup and sugar and non-nutrient foods that are served in schools is good, but I don't think it goes far enough," she said, citing the calories in sports drinks and some flavored milks. The move follows a mounting wave of regulation by school boards and legislators alarmed by the health problems that can follow childhood obesity. Soda has been a particular target because of its high calories and popularity among children. Anne Bryant, executive director of the National School Boards Association, said she welcomed it. "We're pleased that the parties have decided that there is no need for litigation, because litigation is a terrible waste of time and money," she said. John Sicher, editor and publisher of Beverage Digest, which compiles extensive data on the beverage industry, said the deal would have no impact on the $63 billion beverage industry's bottom line. "The sale of sugar-carbonated sodas in schools is a tiny, tiny part of their overall volume," said Sicher. "Financially, on the big companies, it will have virtually no impact." He applauded the move for its impact "in terms of responsibility and accountability to the consumer." Under the agreement, high schools will still be able sell low-calorie drinks with fewer than 10 calories a serving, as well as up to 12-ounce servings of juice, sports drinks and lowfat and nonfat milk. The serving sizes for juice and milk will shrink to 10 ounces for middle school students and 8 ounces for elementary school students. Diet sodas and sports drinks won't be sold in middle and elementary schools, and full-sugar soda and whole milk will no longer be offered to any schools. School sales of sports drinks, diet sodas and bottled water have been on the rise in recent years, while sugary sodas bought by students have been falling, according to a recent ABA report. But regular soda, averaging 150 calories a can, is still the most popular drink, accounting for 45 percent of drinks sold in schools in 2005, according to the report. The new rules will apply to beverages sold on school grounds during the regular school day and at after-school activities such as band and choir practice. Beverage industry officials who joined Clinton at a news conference in his Manhattan office said the agreement was not an admission that their products are unhealthy. "This is about where we sell our products, not about the products themselves," said Dawn Hudson, CEO of PepsiCo for North America. "We believe that all our products have a place in a well-balanced diet and proper, active lifestyle."

Kansas State hired Huggins officially on March 23 and landed two big-time recruits less than a month later. Huggins signed a five-star recruit in Jason Bennett, a 7-foot2 center from Florida. According to rivals.com, Bennett is the 30th ranked player in the 2006 recruiting class. Huggins also landed a four-star guard from Florida, Blake Young. Young was one of the top junior college recruits in the country and is expected to have an immediate effect in Manhattan. With the hiring of Huggins, some things will change for Kansas coach Bill Self, but not the way he talks about the Kansas program. "I'm sure there will be a time when we go head-to-head on a recruit," Self said. "That hasn't happened since I have been here. But, we're not going to change the way we recruit just because Kansas State hired a new head coach." Before coming to K-State, Huggins coached at the University of Cincinnati for 16 years. The university let Huggins go last fall for issues he was having off the court. However, on the court, he was one of the most successful coaches in the past decade. Huggins has a current streak of 14 consecutive NCAA tournaments and said he hoped to continue that tradition at K-State. Some of Huggins' off-the-court problems included being pulled over for speeding and being issued a DUI and having low graduation rates for his players at Cincinnati. Huggins said he wasn't worried about people being concerned with his reputation. "I would venture to say that the people who are my critics have never met me, they have never met my players, and they haven't spent 10 seconds on the campus with our guys," Huggins said at the press conference the day he was hired. Huggins won't be the only coach in the conference trying to make a good first impression. There will be new head coaches at Oklahoma, Iowa State and Missouri as well. Self said coaching against the new coaches won't be that different than when he first came to Kansas in 2003. Mike Anderson will take over the coaching duties at Missouri. Anderson comes from the University of Alabama Birmingham. He coached just four seasons in Birmingham and compiled an 89-41 record. Anderson's team qualified for the NCAA tournament for the last three consecutive seasons "Some teams will play a different style, but for the most part it will be similar to what we have seen in the past," Self said. "It won't affect Kansas that much. We want our league to get better, and it's happening." and in his first season as head coach. Included in his three consecutive tournament appearances was a loss to Kansas in the 2004 Tournament. In Self's first year as coach, Kansas prevailed in the Sweet 16 and defeated Anderson's Alabama-Birmingham team. Missouri hasn't reached the NCAA tournament since 2002 and Anderson said that was clearly the first goal for the program. Anderson will bring a new style of basketball to Missouri. At Alabama-Birmingham, Anderson became famous for coaching teams that often ran the fast break and played in transition. Anderson's style of basketball became known as the "fastest 40 minutes in basketball." "Some folks call it Run-and-Gun, but it's actually Run-and-Execute," Anderson said. "Our style is attack basketball with an emphasis on the defensive end of the floor." Joining Anderson as new head coaches in the conference will be Jeff Capel at Oklahoma and Greg McDermott at Iowa State. Capel is a graduate of Duke University and has coached the last few seasons at Virginia Commonwealth University. Capel will be the youngest head coach in the conference at just 31 years old. Self said he thought it would be hard on Capel at first, but that he brought a good resume and should fit in well in the conference. — Edited by Meghan Miller PROFILE By SHAWN SHROYER sshroyer@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER Coming out of high school, the only Kansas roster John Allman appeared destined for was the Kansas football team's. 100 If he were to pursue a career in baseball, the junior college route seemed most likely. But through chance Allman faith and hard work, Allman is now the starting left fielder for the Kansas baseball team. Chance came into play while Allman was on a recruiting visit with the football team. The baseball team was playing a weekend series against Nebraska at Hoglund Ballpark at the time, so Allman decided to take in a game. He fell in love with Kansas baseball on the spot. However, only by faith did Allman actually get his foot in the door. The faith came from Allman's high school baseball coach, Kyle Reid, believing that he could play at the collegiate level. Kansas coach Ritch Price believed Allman could produce at the collegiate level. Allman has had faith in himself, too, knowing that if he put forth the effort, he would succeed. "He was a late bloomer in high school and his high school coach called me and asked me if I would give him a chance to walk on and go through the tryout periods and, if he wasn't ready, send him back to junior college to play." Price said. No Guarantees Price put Allman on the roster, but didn't give him any guarantees. He told Allman he would have to work hard to prove he deserved a spot on the team. Early on, Price couldn't help but notice this attitude in Allman, who was named first team all-conference twice in football and baseball while at Rockwood-Summit High School in Fenton, Mo. "I just had that football mentality, where I just come in and work my butt off every day." Allman said. Price said Allman was raw when he came to Kansas, but he kept him on the team because he could see Allman was on the brink of transforming from an athlete to a baseball player. That was all he needed to hear.

Settlemier would hit a go-ahead two-run home run, her 21st of the season, in the sixth inning to help the Jayhawks to a 2-1 victory over the Shockers. BY RYAN SCHNEIDER rschneider@kansan.com KANSAN SENIOR SPORTSWRIVER Before a two-hour rain delay, the Kansas softball team was being no-hit and appeared headed for a third straight loss. Then, Serena Settlemier struck again. Settlemier smashed the second pitch over the left-field fence for a two-run home run after the game was restarted in the bottom sixth inning. The home run gave Kansas the 2-1 victory against Wichita State Wednesday afternoon at Arrocha Ballnall "The amazing Serena comes through again," Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said. "She was looking for a pitch and I think she got that pitch. There was no doubt." The game was delayed because of lightning near the ballpark while Settlemier stood at the plate and freshman center fielder Stevie Crisosto was on first base with two outs in the sixth inning. Kansas trailed 1-0 before the delay. Settlemier said she felt more mental pressure as she waited at Anschutz Pavilion during the rain delay knowing she would be at the plate when the game resumed. 1 SEE LIGHTNING ON PAGE 3B 1 2B THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN SPORTS THURSDAY, MAY 4. 2006 FRIDAY ATHLETICS CALENDAR Baseball at Texas, 6:15 p.m. Austin, Texas SATURDAY Softball vs. Iowa State, 2 p.m. Arrocha Ballpark Baseball at Texas, 2 p.m., Austin, Texas Player to watch: Erik Morrison.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL Kansas State to play Xavier in Cincinnati MANHATTAN - New Kansas State basketball coach Bob Huggins has at least two more games to coach in Cincinnati — but not against the Bearcats. On Tuesday Kansas State announced a three-year contract with Xavier, Cincinnati's cross-town rival. The two teams will play at U.S. Arena in Cincinnati the next two seasons, then at Bramlage Coliseum in Manhattan the following year. "Cincinnati has been great to me," said Huggins, who coached Cincinnati for 16 years before agreeing to leave in August 2005 following a drunken driving conviction and a clash with the school's president. "We are very excited to play a top-notch program as Xavier. I would like to thank Xavier and U.S. Bank Arena for giving me the opportunity to return to Cincinnati. The fans there have always supported me, and it will be my honor to coach in front of them once again." The Associated Press Mavericks coach's diligence pays off THE COLUMN TIM JONES BY JIMMY CHAVEZ Dallas Mavericks coach Avery Johnson has to feel proud of himself as much as he should feel proud of his team. But that's never been his style. Otherwise, he wouldn't be the subject of any column. That's because that would indicate complacency, something that makes the former player turned coach cringe. Around these parts, Johnson's exploits aren't that well documented, and that's too bad. But his story serves as an example of how one person can persevere, even when everyone says you're not good enough. To start, Avery Johnson wasn't given a fair chance to begin with. Standing at 5-foot-11, Johnson went undrafted out of tiny Southern University. Faced with the prospects of never playing professional basketball, he played in the old United States Basketball League for a couple of years before signing a free agent contract with the Seattle Supersonics and later with the San Antonio Spurs in 1990. Today, he is heralded as a hero in San Antonio. You could imagine how hard it is to believe that he went from San Antonio, Denver, Houston and back to San Antonio. Every time he was cut, he was told it was because he wasn't good enough to play in the NBA. In 1994, he signed with Golden State and from there, his career began a metamorphosis; he became a student He learned from experienced players and hall of fame coaches. Johnson soon became a fan favorite, because of his tenacity and never give up attitude. He became the vocal, spiritual, and floor leader on a team that perennially won between 55 and 60 games. of the game. NBA guard Damon Stoudamire, then with the Portland Trail Blazers, said in 1999 that no team with Avery Johnson would ever win an NBA Championship. In that year's Western Conference Finals, Johnson led the Spurs to a dominating four-game sweep of Stoudamire's Blazers. But his greatest vindication came late in June of that year, when of all people, he hit the winning shot that propelled San Antonio to its first championship. He played a few more years, eventually being replaced by Tony Parker before retiring with Dallas in 2004 to become an assistant with the Mavericks. Last year, Johnson, who had been expected to one day become an NBA coach, saw that day come earlier than expected, when former Mavs coach Don Nelson stepped down and handed the reigns to Johnson. This year, "The Little General" has come full circle. When Hurricane Katrina left Johnson's native New Orleans marred amidst billions of dollars of damage, he extended a hand to his high school coach to join the Mavericks as one of his assistant coaches. Former teammates and coaches would say it is simply just Avery being Avery. Always a leader off the court as much as he's ever been on the court, he is greatly admired in San Antonio. This year, he was awarded the NBA's Coach Of The Year honor. Leading the Mavericks, Johnson has displayed the knowledge he's acquired from playing for Hall of Fame coaches such as Larry Brown, Don Nelson, and Gregg Popovich. His story is unique in that it is a tale of perseverance, of defying the odds. Now, as his team awaits its second round opponent in this year's NBA playoffs, Johnson likely works as if Game 7 of the NBA Finals were to tomorrow night. Because after all, any differently and it would be guaranteed that no would know who Avery Johnson was. Chavez is a San Antonio senior in journalism. KENTUCKY DERBY Men given opportunity to win after tragedy LOUISVILLE, Ky. - Two accidents 16 days apart on their favorite types of horses forever altered the lives of jockey Alex Solis and trainer Dan Hendricks. A horse named Brother Derek has changed things, too, giving both men a opportunity late in their careers to win their first Kentucky Derby. The colt carries a four-race winning streak and two families' hopes into America's greatest race Saturday. Solis got tossed from the saddle when his horse clipped heels and fell in a race at Del Mar on July 7, 2004. Barely two weeks later, Hendricks came flying off a jump at his favorite California motocross course and crashed. The self-described "small" jump was one he had successfully made hundreds of times before. Oh, say can you see...

Despite not being guaranteed a roster spot upon coming to Kansas, Allman has installed himself as the team's starting left fielder. Allman CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B "It was like watching a professional football player go through those agility drills," Price said. "I thought if we could transfer some of that athleticism to baseball skills, he had a chance to help us." Athleticism aside, Allman, now a sophomore, was redshirted his freshman year so Price could refine his skills and find a position for him on the field. Reid said he played Allman at second base and catcher in high school. As a senior, he was runner-up for the Missouri High School Baseball Player of the Year, but he didn't fare well as a catcher at the Division I level. As a result, Allman shuffled through several positions at Kansas. "I came here as a catcher, then they moved me to first base and then they moved me to the outfield, so that's where I'm at now." Allman said. In addition to the struggles of learning new positions, Allman also had to deal with not playing his freshman year because of the redshirt — something he wasn't used to doing after playing football, basketball and baseball all four years in high school. "It was tough not being able to play, especially that first year, knowing I'm going to be on the bench," Allman said. "It eats you up a little bit." Getting His Chance Price said he didn't expect Allman to contribute until his third year in the program, but Allman's dedication during his redshirt year to becoming a complete player at a new position paid off. In 2005, his second year at Kansas and first on the active roster, Allman played in 46 of Kansas' 64 games and batted 350, which was the second-best batting average on the team. This season, Allman has started 48 of Kansas' 51 games and has appeared in all but one. His average is nearly identical to last season's at .349, but his power numbers are hardly comparable. Allman has more than doubled his RBI total from 15 to 37. His total bases are up from 45 to 92. "I am so proud of him," Reid said. "He has earned exactly what he's gotten because he's a hard, hard worker." Hard Work Pavs Off So what brought Allman up to the level he's at today? Reid hasn't coached Allman in three years, but there was no doubt in his mind what has served Allman best at Kansas. "Work ethic," Reid said. "He just has a relentless work ethic, will not be denied, will fight you tooth and nail, is not just a serious competitor, but a composed competitor." Price confirmed what Reid suspected. "He gives you everything he's got every day he walks on the field and he does the same thing in the weight room, he does the same thing in his conditioning program, he does the same thing in practice every day and I think that's the reason why he's advanced so quickly." Price said. Looking ahead to 2007, Kansas will be without current senior outfielders Matt Baty and Gus Milner, all but assuring Allman a starting spot again next year. ALLMAN'S STATS Allman's production from all of last season to this season: 2005 2006 Home runs 1 5 RBI 15 37 Total bases 45 92 Extra base hits 7 20 Slugging pct. .437 528 Stolen bases 3 6 Outfield assists 0 3 Errors 1 0 Source: kuathletics.com Note: There are still 10 games left in the regular season. Then again, if anything were guaranteed, Allman probably wouldn't be starting for Kansas. Allman said the last thing on his mind would be to abandon his hard-working mentality. "That's how I got here and I'm not going to change the way that I've been working." Allman said. "I'm never satisfied with where I'm at." THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 3B Edited by James Foley CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B "I talked to a few of my teammates, Nettie and Heather," the senior pitcher said, referring to senior left fielder Nettie Fierros and senior right fielder Heather Stanley. "They told me just to wait on that inside pitch." Lightning Before continuing her at-bat, Settlemier had Stanley throw her nearly 50 inside pitches in the bullpen so she would be ready when the game resumed. Sure enough, the pitch was inside. Settlemier was ready and took advantage of the opportunity. She recorded Kansas' only hit of the game and her 21st home run of the season, a school record. "This is definitely the most dramatic moment of my career." Settlemier said. Wichita State held Kansas hitless before the rain delay. The Jayhawks managed just four base runners, all on walks, in five innings. Kansas stranded its best opportunity to manufacture runs in the fourth inning, leaving two runners on base. Bunge said she was afraid with the rain stopping play, a runner on base and her best hitter at the plate, that the Jayhawks wouldn't get an opportunity to decide the game on the field. "Right after the rain delay, I thought, 'Here's our best shot.' Bunge said. "I'm thinking we should do whatever we can to at least finish this game and give us a chance to get on the field and earn it." Junior pitcher Kassie Humphreys, 13-16, had another strong outing after struggling last weekend against Oklahoma. On Wednesday, Humphreys allowed one run, four hits, struck out seven and walked one in the complete game effort. Despite the heavy rain during the delay, the infield was playable after the grounds crew worked on it. The infield dirt does not absorb water. Instead the water beads off, keeping the dirt solid. "It's still not, obviously, ideal." Bunge said of the field conditions. "But the amount of water that came down, on any other field, we weren't plaving." A doubleheader was scheduled on Wednesday, but Bunge and Wichita State coach Mike Permiciaro decided to not play the second game. MLB Kansas will play host to Iowa State in the final home series of the season beginning Saturday at 2 p.m. Edited by Meghan Miller Rockies end losing streak THE ASSOCIATED PRESS DENVER - Jeff Francis allowed four hits over seven innings for his first win in six starts this season and the Colorado Rockies ended a two-game losing streak with a 3-0 victory against the Cincinnati Reds on Wednesday night. Francis (1-2) struck out five and walked one in winning for the first time since Sept. 28 at Atlanta, his last start last season. Jose Mesa pitched a scoreless eighth inning and Brian Fuentes worked the ninth to complete the Rockies' first shutout of the season and earn his sixth save. Matt Holliday was 3-for-4 with a two-run double and Danny Ardoin had an RBI single for Colorado. Francis worked out of trouble in the first and second innings. He got Edwin Encarracion to pop out with two outs and two on in the first, and he left Brandon Phillips stranded at third in the second. Rich Aurilia doubled with two outs in the third and Francis retired the next 11 hitters before giving up a one-out single to Austin Kearns in the seventh. Cincinnati had its two-game winning streak snapped. The Reds entered the game with the best record in the majors (19-8) and were off to their best start since 1990, when they began 21-7. Brandon Claussen (2-3) allowed three runs and seven hits in 6 2-3 innings. He struck out five and walked two. The Rockies scored all their runs in the fifth. Ardino drove in the first run with a single and Holliday made it 3-0 with the two-out double over the head of center fielder Ryan Freel.

Busch, one of the youngest drivers in the Nextel Cup series, has been under constant criticism this season for reckless or immature behavior. He's twice tangled with series champion Tony Stewart, wrecked race leader Michel Jourdain Jr. in Mexico City, took the brunt of the blame for aggressive driving in Daytona and was ticketed for reckless driving in Richmond, Va. Most recently, he gave Casey Mears a retaliatory bump under the red flag at Phoenix that earned him a five-lap penalty and a severe tongue-lashing from NASCAR president Mike Helton. "The guy is really fast and he's got a lot of talent, but he really does a lot of stupid stuff and that's across the board, that feeling throughout the garage." Mears said. "When he grows up, he's going to be a real good race car driver." Busch's rivals eagerly await that day. He celebrated his 21st birthday on Tuesday and is rapidly closing in on a time when he won't be able to shrug off his errors as youthful mistakes. For now, much of what he's done can be attributed to immaturity. "You've got to remember how old he is," said four-time series champion Jeff Gordon, Busch's teammate at Hendrick Motorsports. "He's got pressure on him. He's got a tremendous amount of talent. He has a great team. "I think a lot of times when you're young you're so under the microscope, everybody is coming down on you and the whole world is watching and it's hard for you to take all that in at times. It only makes it tougher for yourself." It doesn't help that he's the kid brother of Kurt Busch, who had more than his share of missteps in his first four Nextel Cup seasons. During that time, Kurt Busch became one of the most disliked drivers in NASCAR both in the garage and the grandstands. It's possible that Kyle is paying the price for brother's sins. He wondered if he'd maybe have a smoother ride if he wasn't one of the "Busch Brothers." GMAC GOODYEAR SUNDEE Kyle Busch signs autographs before qualifying for the Aaron's 499 auto race Saturday April 29, 2006 at Talladega Superspeedway in Talladega, Ala. Rainier Ehrhardt/ASSOCIATED PRESS Loyal fan gives up on Royals MLB THE ASSOCIATED PRESS KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City Royals lost yet again Tuesday, a 4-1 setback in Detroit. With the worst record in the majors, who could fault a fan for taking a nose dive from the bandwagon — much less selling his allegiance? Chad Carroll auctioned off 25 years of loyalty to the Royals on eBay on Tuesday, along with jerseys, hats, baseballs and other memorabilia. And in a spate of irony, faithfulness to a club with one of the smallest payrolls in Major League Baseball sold for a paltry $278.47. "It really does feel like a big weight has been lifted," Carroll, 34, who lives in Maryland but grew up listening to Kansas City games from his home in Iowa, told The Kansas City Star. "I really can't tell you how good it feels. I really can't." They outbid the T-Bones, a minor league team, and saved Carroll from being held hostage by yet another Kansas City franchise. They also outbid Yahoo Sports baseball columnist Jeff Passan, who planned to ask readers to choose the new focus of Carroll's admiration. A group of nine friends bid for Carroll's freedom, splitting the cost and earning the right to select his new favorite team. "We didn't think it would be right if somebody else got to name his new team," said Dan Young, Carroll's best friend. "We don't know who it's going to be. We just know it not going to be the Rovals anymore." His friends say they saw it coming. Year after year, Carroll would adhere to the baseball cliche of "wait 'til next year." He promised his buddies the Royals would finish third in the division, at the very least. "Year after year he'd say, 'Next year's going to be our year,'" Young said. "After a while, you could see it. He wouldn't talk about the new guys, and he'd talk more and more about the George Brett era." After this season's 2-13 start and an 11-game game, Carroll cut Burgos and his ties to the entire organization. Relics from the Royals' 1985 World Series championship came down, balls signed by Bob Hamelin and Angel Berroa went out the door, and a breath of fresh air wafted in. Caroll's last game will be May 12, when Kansas City plays Baltimore. 44 "It started off as a joke," said Carroll, who has taken a shine to the Cleveland Indians. "But now I'm completely serious. Now I can concentrate on other teams in other sports that have caused me pain and misery." Ann Heisenfeld/ASSOCIATED PRESS Kansas City Royals pitcher Joe Mays walks off the mound after giving up a two-run home run to Minnesota Twins' Torii Hunter, left, during the inning in of a baseball game in Minneapolis, Wednesday. NHL Hockey player returns after breaking wrist BY ARNIE STAPLETON AP SPORTS WRITER DENVER — Not that long ago, it looked like Steve Konowalchuk's season was over. Then the Colorado Avalanche extended their season by sneaking into the playoffs and upsetting Dallas in the first round. Now Konowalchuk is back, too. The 33-year-old forward — sidelined since November with a broken right wrist — returned to practice Wednesday. He was also cleared to play in the Western Conference semifinals. The team's medical staff gave Konowalchuk the OK to return to the ice Tuesday, when his teammates got back from their 48-hour break after their quick elimination of the second-seeded Stars. "It ites like my first game probably times 10 because we're in the second round of the playoffs." Konowalchuk said, "The wrist felt great. I'm ready to go." "Originally I was told the whole season." he said. "At best we would had to make it to the Stanley Cup Finals to get a chance. But with the training staff and the doctors and seeing the progress I made, I think they lightened up a little bit on their original plan. And here I am." Konowalchuk's quicker-thananticipated recovery and unexpected return provided an immense psychological boost for the Avs, who lost leading scorer Marek Swatos to a broken right shoulder last month. Captain Joe Sakic compared it to picking up a top free agent out of the blue. "He's so valuable not only on the ice but in the dressing room," Sakie said. "The way he plays, he plays hard, he's in front of the net creating havoc. It's huge for us to get him back at this time." The Avalanche missed Ko- nalchuk's hard-nosed style for the final 61 games of the regular season and the first round of the playoffs. "He brings a ton of grit. He plays a simple game, a hard game, one that is hard to play against. And that's what we need," Rob Blake, a defenseman, said.

He was 74. "My dad was my best friend and greatest role model, and I will miss him deeply," Tiger Woods said on his Web site. "I'm overwhelmed when I think of all of the great things he accomplished in his life. He was an amazing dad, coach, mentor, soldier, husband and friend I wouldn't be where I am today without him, and I'm honored to continue his legacy of sharing and caring." A habitual smoker who had heart bypass surgery in 1986, Woods was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 1998 and was treated with radiation. But the cancer returned in 2004 and spread throughout his body. Last month, he was too frail to travel to the Masters for the first time. The last tournament Woods attended was the Target World Challenge in December 2004, when his son rallied to win and then donated $1.25 million to the Tiger Woods Foundation that his father helped him establish. The Tiger Woods Learning Center, another vision inspired by his father, opened in February. friends on tour, Mark O'Meara and John Cook, withdrew from the tournament and flew to California to be with him. Woods decided not to play in the Wachovia Championship this week in Charlotte, N.C. Two of his best "My father was my best friend, my mentor and perhaps my greatest support system. Earl vas all of that to Tiger," he said. I am so happy to be with you. I love you very much. Jack Nicklaus, who also was 30 when his father died, said he had long "admired and related to the close bond" shared by Tiger and Earl. "I knew Tiger was special the day he was born." Earl Woods said in a May 2000 interview with The Associated Press. AP Photo/Long Beach Press-Telegram, Stephen Carr STUFF Tiger Woods set records that might never be broken by winning three straight U.S. Junior titles, followed by three straight U.S.Amateurs.

The pool will remain closed for the remainder of the semester. BY BETTY KASPAR bkaspar@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITER The April 23 hail storm caused big problems at Robinson Gymnasium. Steam pipes that serviced the main pool melted, which forced the pool to close until repairs could be completed. Bernie Kish, director of facilities at Robinson, said the repairs have been time consuming, but he hoped the pool would be reopened by May 15, but could be as late or later than May 19. The power went out in the gvm during the hailstorm. When power was restored, valves that usually keep steam from going back into the pipes failed. The steam re-entered the pipes, causing them to melt, which created a leak underneath the pool. The system was installed in 1965 and used the pipes to control pool temperature. The new valves for the steam system will be installed after repairs to the pipes are completed. Kish was concerned about the effect the closing would have on swimming and diving camp, which begins May 29. Although the lap pool remains open, the divers have been practicing at Lawrence Free State High School, because the lap pool is not deep enough for a diving board. Swimmers have been practicing in the lap pool. But junior Lisa Tilson, swimmer and University Daily Kansan correspondent, said the pool was too small for the 25-plus people on the swim team. "We have a lot more individualized training with two pools and right now we are all in one pool." Lisa Tilson Swim team member Tilson said the team was swimming the same amount of yardage as they would with two pools,but that the practices were less effective. "It is putting a damper on what we can do trainingwise." "We have a lot more individualized training with two pools and right now we are all cramped in one pool," she said. Open swim times have not been affected by the closing of the main pool. The costs for repairs were being covered by the University. —Edited by Cynthia Hernandez NBA Nuggets address issues Impudence injury plagues teammates BY ARNIE STAPLETON AP SPORTS WRITER DENVER — The Denver Nuggets have a lengthy list of pressing matters to address in the offseason, and the most important is finding another shooter to complement rising star Carmelo Anthony. "How about four?" coach George Karl cracked. "Can we get a big man who can make a shot? Can we get a true shooter on a three-point line? Maybe a scorer and a shooter? A penetrator?" The Nuggets have plenty of time to ponder their moves now that they've made an early exit from the playoffs for the third straight year. Hev. might as well dream big. A season filled with injuries, inconsistency and insubordination has left Karl contemplating his future in coaching. General manager Kiki Vandewheghe is also unsure about his future in Denver with his contract set to expire Aug. 1. So, it might very well be somebody else's mess to clean up. There's no urgency to get a new personnel man in place because the Nuggets don't own a first-round pick in the June 28 draft. But they do have six players who are set to become free agents and Anthony is eligible for a contract extension for upward of $80 million. First, the Nuggets are going to have to figure out what to do with forward Kenyon Martin, whose tirade during the playoffs over his lack of playing time led to his suspension and could result in his ticket out of town. The Nuggets' fatal flaw was poor shooting, especially in the playoffs. Karl said the club went for defense last summer and again at the trade deadline, acquiring Reggie Evans and Ruben Patterson instead of another shooter. The newcomers helped Denver clinch its first division title in 18 years but the Nuggets couldn't overcome their lack of scoring from the perimeter in their first-round thumping by the Los Angeles Clippers. "We had a chance to pick up Ronald Murray and we decided to go with the energy guys," Karl said. "It was very, very hard watching your team basically be controlled because you couldn't make shots." Still, Karl insisted that losing to the Clippers wasn't anything to be ashamed of. "They have seven guys on that team that can get 30 on any night," he said. "How many guys on our team if we leave them in the gym all day can get 30?" With so many injuries, it was difficult for Karl to put together a cohesive lineup, and that meant chemistry never developed. "We need to have guys in there who are committed to doing things the right way, not bickering and fighting among each other, not worry about whose team it is, who takes the majority of the shots," Marcus Camby said. "The common goal should be to go out there and win. For the most part of the season we were very selfish in that aspect." Anthony agreed and suggested he wanted to sit down with management this offseason to go over players who could come in and help the Nuggets get better: "I don't want to be like Kevin Garnett and take eight years to get out of the first round." Karl said he understood their frustration. "I don't want to point fingers or blame anybody, but I got "The dysfunction The dysfunction always gets the attention. The crazy always gets the magnifying glass." George Karl Denver Nuggets coach back into the game to get back into the gym, to get back with a basketball family," he said. "And this year's family was a little dysfunctional." Never before had Karl dealt with so many injuries, the most costly being the loss of forward Nene, who went down in the season opener with a knee injury that sideline him all year. "I think it took a pillar of our foundation away." Karl said. Karl said fans will ultimately look at the divisional banner that will hang in the Pepsi Center and appreciate what the team accomplished this year, when Anthony took a major step toward superstardom and gritty players such as Eduardo Najera and Francisco Elson played beyond expectations. All that was overshadowed by the problems that plagued the team, from injuries to infighting, from front-office uncertainties to locker room turmoil. "The dysfunction always gets the attention," Karl said. "The crazy always gets the magnifying glass. "You had chaos above and on the team. You had it all over the place. Coming in and getting an energy in this team was an art." Ultimately, Karl said, he was simply proud of his team for its perseverance. "I would definitely say there's more magic to this team than mystery," Karl said. "Now we have to solve the mysteries." new with NEW click- worthy features Post Comments Join Discusions Live News Updates HANSAN.COM KANSAN everyday CUT IT OUT!

Everything. Parents get a lot of attention for how they discipline their children, or the rules they set, but an unjustly small amount is placed on the all-important naming of a child. A name, for better or worse, is a person's label, identity and heritage. It is a clue to ethnicity or legacy (just think of all those juniors or numeral suffixes). It has an original meaning that's supposed to bestow a profound clue to a person's essence. People become synonymous with their names; just try to imagine yourself, or a friend or your parents with a different one. Would we revere Paul Revere if he were Paul Abhor? Would we respect a Candi Rooseveit as much as Eleanor? Could Madonna have built her legacy upon a name like Esther? Most of us found relationships upon similarities in interests or personalities. For his article (p.10), Jason Shaad interviewed men with whom he has nothing in common — nothing but a name. It's a backwards way of grouping people, but yields a fascinating array of traits, appearances and interests.Jasons are as varied as anybody else.

There isn't much time to sleep. And when you finally find time, insomnia can hit as tests, papers, deadlines and relationships dance in your head. As a result, many people turn to sleep aids, both over-the-counter and prescription. But some of these aids can be hazardous. Below are some popular ways to cure insomnia — and the truth about their side effects and uses. Herbal supplements The active ingredient in some non-prescription herbal sleepaids is valerian root. It functions not only as a sleep aid but as pain reliever and treatment for depression, exhaustion and anxiety. Herbal supplements have limited or no side effects and few drug interactions.But Marianne Middleton, clinical coordinator at Lawrence Memorial Hospital Sleep Disorder Center, warns that with herbal medicines, you often don't know what you are getting. The Food and Drug Administration doesn't regulate herbs and the drugs often are not American-made, she says. Therefore, it's hard to know their strength. Certain scents such as lavender can be relaxing, and do not have any side effects. Middleton says. Side Effects. With herbal medicine there are limited to no side effects. However, herbal drugs usually only are effective short-term and there is a slight chance of allergic reaction, as with all drugs. The top three herbal supplements rated by Consumer Health Digest are Somnatrol, Dormitas and Revita Sleep. Ambien and Lunesta Ambien and Lunesta both use a sedative/hypnotic drug called Zolpidem. It helps you fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer and reduces the number of times you wake up in the night. However, some users recently have reported sleepwalking, which has caused the FDA to be suspicious. Sarah Aylward, Kansas City, Mo., senior and Lunesta consumer, says she has had similar experiences with the drug. "I've had mornings where I've woken up and realized that I had gotten up In the middle of the night. I only vaguely remember feeling drugged," she says. Side Effects: Stomach cramps, shakiness, flushing, nervousness, nausea and vomiting are all minor side effects of Amblen and Lunesta. Aylward says her most common symptom is feeling groggy in the morning, which has caused her to miss classes. Over-the-counter antihistamines These drugs are highly addictive and can cause withdrawal symptoms if you quit abruptly. Middleton also warns that taking Ambien or Lunesta with alcohol can have severe repercussions. According to the National Institutes of Health's State-of-the-Science Conference, antihistamines are the most common over-the-counter treatment for Insomnia. They are non-addictive and most consumers can handle them. Side Effects: Higher risk of daytime fatigue and a reduction in cognitive function. Antidepressants Originally used as an antidepressant, Trazodone is one of the most popular sleep-aids, according to Consumer Health Digest. It relaxes the mind and relieves anxiety. Christina McCoy, Side Effects: Dizziness, drowsiness headache, dry mouth, diarrhea or constipation. Serious side effects include allergic reaction, prolonged (four hours or longer), painful erection and irregular heartbeat. Overland Park senior, takes Trazodone about three times a week. She says she can't sleep because of anxiety and Trazodone helps. McCoy considers the over-the-counter aid to be safer than its prescription counterparts." It's the natural way to go if you're worried about prescription medication addiction," she says. Warm glass of milk Your grandma's sleep remedy actually has some truth to it. Middleton says that milk contains tryptophan, which will relax you and alleviate stress. Side Effects: None, unless you are lactose intolerant. Consult a physician before using these and any other drugs. WAYS TO SLEEP BETTER Retire and rise on a timeline that deviates by no more than two hours every day, even on weekends. Avoid caffeine, nicotine and alcohol, which suppress deep sleep, within three to six hours, and heavy meals within three hours, of bedtime. Use your bed for resting or sleeping, not for office work, watching television, or playing video games (unless it helps you to doze off). Exercise moderately for 30 minutes a day, but no later than three hours before lights out. Snack on bananas, turkey, peanut butter or other tryptophan-rich foods to enlist the aid of this naturally calming compound. Nap no later than mid-afternoon to avoid sleep interference. Write out a "worry list" or "to do list" of bothersome matters before bed to help your mind disengage.

Class up your nightlife with a wine and cheese party. Benjamin Franklin once said, "Wine makes daily living easier, less hurried, with fewer tensions and more tolerance." Genius that he was, Franklin summed up why wine is the perfect party beverage. Not only does wine break the ice, but it's classier than the old keg-in-a-black-trashcan routine. And it tastes damn good. So if you want to up the swank quotient on your next soiree, serve wine. But if you really want Planning to impress, serve wine with a perfectly-paired cheese. Read on to learn how to match wine and cheese and throw a party that will put the keg into temporary retirement. First, you must decide which wines you will serve so you can pair them with the right cheese. Having both red and white wines is a good idea to give guests more choices, or you can go with a theme, such as wines from a particular region or country. Though it may take extra planning, it could help to ask your guests to bring a bottle of wine to share, says Jennifer Stanton, owner of Wines By Jennifer, a global wine boutique and tasting room in Parkville, Mo. When your friends bring a bottle of wine, they should also bring along an index card with the name of the wine written on it. This way, people can write notes about the wine and the cheese paired with it for future reference, Stanton says. If you decide to provide all the wine, hand out index cards with the descriptions when your friends arrive. Here's a quick lesson: The cheese should not overpower the wine."You want to pick something mild, so you're not covering up the wine," Stanton says. Steer clear of spicy or heavily-flavored cheeses that may influence the wine you're sampling, she says. "You don't have to get stuck in a food rut.The fun is in the variety and experiencing it all." The variety of cheeses is as limitless as the types of wines. When serving cheeses, Lora Wiley, owner of Au Marché, suggests presenting them in groups of three. For example, pick three different bleu cheeses or soft-ripened cheeses. Or choose three cheeses from different regions with varying colors and textures. Finally, set up your table with the wine, cheese, breads and crackers and index cards. Pairing You shouldn't drink wine by itself, says Tina Stamos, wholesale and special projects manager at Au Marché, 931 Massachusetts St. Rather, wine is meant to go with specific foods — especially cheese. — Tina Stamos, Au Marche special projects manager taste of the cheese will change with time. Take the cheeses out of the refrigerator about an hour before you serve them to achieve the maximum flavor, Stamos says. As with wine, the And remember, pairings are just a guideline. Rules are never absolute when it comes to food and wine. "You don't have to get stuck in a food rut," Stamos says. "The fun is in the variety and experiencing it all." Budget about 3 The cheese B 1/2 ounces of cheese per guest, says Steven Jenkins in his book, The Cheese Primer. Jenkins recommends serving no more than five cheeses; more could be overwhelming. The cheeses at a specialty store are more expensive because of the way they are processed, Stamos says. Many are aged a year or more, which contributes to a higher cost — they're different from the plain cheddar or Monterey jack you would find at a grocery store. Try the wines without the cheese first, Stanton says. This will allow you to savor their flavors. The wine Wines should be tasted from lightest to heaviest. Start with whites such as Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay, then work your way up to the richest and driest wines like Pinot Noir, Syrah and Cabernet. Taste your wine in small samples. Smell, swirl and smell and swirl some more before finally tasting. Drinking wine is not like drinking any other beverage, Stanton says. "You really need to swirl the glass to open up the aromas in the wine because it's been sleeping in the bottle," she says. "You're letting it out and letting it breathe." When you take a sip of wine, let it flow over the top of your tongue and swish it around your mouth, Stanton says. Because your tongue is covered in taste buds, each part will pick up different flavors. "You need to, more or less, chew your wine," Stanton says. Finishing touches A simple French baguette and three types of assorted crackers go well as accompaniments, Stamos says. You don't want a bread that has a lot of flavor that takes away from the cheese and wine. She also suggests serving different types of olives, pickles and other preserved items as palate cleansers, along with fresh fruit. This makes the table more visually appealing. Finally, have a great time doing something different. Julian French, Shawnee sophomore, says a wine and cheese party appeals to him because it's a change of pace from the usual party scene. "People don't have to be drunk and crazy to have fun," French says. "I like chillin' with my friends while sipping a nice glass of wine. It's really relaxed." 08> JAYPLAY 05.04.2006 > NOTICE Puff the magic hookah by Malinda Osborne Getting to know the bong's legal cousin Jane I place my lips on the manogay tip and breathe in deeply. I hear only a peaceful bubbling sound as I draw in an apple flavor. After a thoughtful pause I blow a billow of wavering smoke in the air. I sit back, pass the mouthpiece to the next person and enjoy the slight buzz that comes from smoking a hookah. For those unaware of this sublime device, the hookah — also known as a narghile or hubble bubble — is a Middle-Eastern water pipe used for smoking flavored tobacco. In the past decade, it has taken the Western world by storm, particularly on college campuses. Indoor smoking bans, scathing medical claims and sketchy stigmas be damned — this pipe's allure continues unfettered because of its soothing nature and social appeal. In the United States, 200 to 300 hookah bars have opened since 2000, according to SMOKESHOP Magazine. Forty-five percent of colleges and universities are near one. In Lawrence, the closest thing to a hookah lounge is RING OF FIRE HOW TO BLOW SMOKE RINGS long been a traditional centerpiece of Arab social activities. Hookahs originated more than 500 years ago in India and were fashioned from a coconut shell, according to The Turkish Daily News. Its popularity spread to the Middle Eastern countries and then to Egypt, where the current style finally evolved. The secret to this method is to push the smoke in your mouth out with your tongue. Hookahs now come in all shapes and sizes, but all have the four essential parts: the base, which holds the water; the bowl, while making the slightest inaudible puff from your lungs. This will push some of the smoke out, creating a ring. This method requires much more control in order not to push too much smoke out, as well as incredible "It has really caught on with young people and tourists," Alrishq says. "It's a great social thing. You can play board games, drink coffee or tea and smoke the hookah." If you don't want to brave the outdoors when hitting the hubble bubble, you'll have to move on to Kansas City, because it has not yet jumped on the smoking ban wagon. Jerusalem Café & Bakery, 431 Westport Rd., turns into a hookah bar at night. The café has 25 hookahs, which are all in use on the weekends, says manager Murad Alirishq. He says that since the place opened three years ago, the popularity of hookahs has quickly increased. tongue control. The overall experience should feel like you're trying to swallow a walnut whole, by contracting your throat muscles to exhale a tiny puff of air.

While its popularity is catching on in the states, the apparatus has which contains the tobacco with the heating device on top; the pipe, which connects the bowl to the base; and the hose, which pulls air from the base. Shannon Cline, employee at Miss Fortune's Creation Station, 726 Massachusetts St, sells a variety of pipes at her store, ranging in cost from $45 to $175.She says buying a hookah is an investment that can last a lifetime. "As long as you don't throw it at a cement wall and take care of it, you can have it as long as you'd like. I know people who have their parents' old hookah," Cline says. PHOTO ILLUSTRATION BY JARED GAB There are as many things to smoke in a hookah as there are styles of it. The tobacco, or shisha, used for the hookah is shredded tobacco leaf with sweeteners. This sticky, saccharine substance comes in a range of flavors, from various fruits to coffee and even Coca-Cola. And while Arab custom dictates that each flavor have its own pipe, Westerners indiscriminately smoke a mix of flavors from a single pipe. Americans also have included personal touches, like adding ice to the water to cool the smoke or using liquids besides water, such as wine or coffee, to add flavor to the tobacco. The pipe's ability to produce pleasant, non-irritating smoke leads most people to believe it is not harmful to one's health. Medical professionals say otherwise. Smoking a hookah can be just as dangerous, if not more, than smoking a cigarette, says Lida Osbern, pulmonary physician at Lawrence Memorial Hospital. A person can actually get higher concentrations of nicotine, tar and heavy metal, she says, because they smoke it for much longer than they would a cigarette. Osbern also refutes the claim that the water can filter out cancer-causing carcinogens. "Overall, it poses a significant health risk. Even sharing the pipe opens up the possibility for sharing infectious diseases," Osbern says. Woods Denny, an avid hookah smoker, compares the habit to eating a Big Mac. "You know it's not healthy for you, but you do it anyway," the Topeka junior says. Smoking sessions can last for 45 minutes to two hours, depending on the amount of tobacco and coals. Denny, also a wholesale hookah dealer, says what he enjoys about smoking the nargile is the soothing effect it has on him. Done correctly, he says it is like breathing; You don't feel the smoke; you only taste the flavor of the tobacco. Denny currently owns what he calls the "Riding Spinner," a 36-inch hookah with three patent leather hoses, hand-made clay handles and a circular globe base with ball bearings on the bottom that allow it to spin 360 degrees. He says this helps prevent the pipe from getting knocked over when people jerk the hose too much. But falling hookah casualties aside, Denny says there's nothing he likes more than smoking his hookah with friends. "I enjoy sitting on our porch with friends. We would sit with a drink and listen to Jack Johnson and laze out," Denny says. "It has a very soothing effect." 05. 04.2006 JAYPLAY <09 HELLO my name is Jason Would a Jason by any other name smell as sweet? by Jason Shoad Harriet College Point 10> JAYPLAY 05.04.2006 ignite HELLO my name is Jason Woods Thesis-beard Jason itting cross-legged in a metal desk chair, Jason Woods tells me about his board. It's important. It's motivation. It's a work in progress, like the thesis it's writing. To me, it's a scraggy collection of brown hair on a lean guy I met for the first time jax five minutes ago. The Stillwater, Okla, graduate student is 24 with blue eyes and gray Puma sneakers. His beard makes him look like Shaggy from Scooby Doo. "I've been working on it since February," he says about the beard. "My girlfriend is a big fan." In his windowless, red-carpeted office in Lindley Hall, he yawns and tells me that a lot of guys promote their goals by not shaving. A beard is a constant reminder of something that needs to get done, like his geography thesis on Kansas City jazz. "I apologize for being groggy," he says. "I've been working on this all day, it's all I ever do — my thesis. Some weeks I'm like, 'I can't take this.' He comically snaps forward, grabs his silver laptop and shakes the screen with both hands. "Why won't you write yourself, thesis?" He grimaces at the screen for a moment, then laughs and leans back in the chair again. "Thesis funk?" she asks, raising her eyebrows. He smiles. "You got to have something to get through the thesis." "It's catchy, but women don't have equal rights in it," she says. "I can't have a thesis beard." Hilary, one of the five students that shares this tiny office, walks in and sits at the desk across from him. A few minutes earlier he jokingly told me Hilary always gives him shit about his beard, so I ask her about it. "Maybe you can stop bathing," he succeeds. He laughs. I laugh. We laugh. It seems appropriate. After all, I found Jason because he has my name. And if we share the same name, why shouldn't we share a similar sense of humor? Joaquin or an admirably boyish one like Johnny. Just Jason. Jayplay-reporter Jason It's Greek in origin — think Jason and the Argonauts — and every baby-name Web site and book I've read says it means "healer," which my mom likes. She wanted me to be a doctor. JAY-sen, or, as I have been called during sojourns in Costa Rica and Mexico, JAY-SONE. A name that doesn't lend itself easily to nicknames or rhyming (mason, basin and raisin, nonwithstanding). Jason Woods tells me about his beard. It's important. It's motivation. It's a work in progress, like the thesis he's writing. Jason: The eleventh most popular baby name when I was born in 1984, according to the Social Security Administration. I was one of three Jasons in my third grade classroom. And, as curiosity compelled me to discover in January, one of 164 people named Jason at the University of Kansas this semester. Hi. My name is Jason. Two syllables, five letters — short and simple. It's printed on my driver's license and written at the top of every paper I turn in. It's how I introduce myself and how I sign my email. It's my tag, my title, my designation. Not a flashy name like So, what's in a name? A lot. Namescaninfluence the way people perceive others. A study published in the Journal of Psychology in 1999 found that first names affect how attractive people are perceived to be. Study participants received full-face photos of males and femalesthatidentified each picture with an "attractive" name (examples of names used include Danielle and Alexander), an unattractive name (Tracey and Kenneth) or without any name. Then the participants rated each photo for physical attractiveness. The study found that names accounted for 6 percent of the variance in how participants rated the physical attractiveness of the people in the photos. Jason wasn't in the mix of names studied. And when I discovered that 164 other guys with my name were walking around campus, I was more interested in their personalities than in their attractiveness. Facebook only got me so far. I couldn't meet all of them, so I picked about 25 that caught my interest. Soon I was sending emails and making awkward phone calls. "I know this is going to sound weird, but we have the same name..." HELLO DEY JOHNSON 12 Jason Knight Cycling-enthusiast Jason Jason Knight tugs down the collar of his grey Mountain Hardware vest to show me his slightly disjointed collarbone."It's gotten better," he says. "It used to be more jailed." A chemistry graduate student from Shawnee, Okla, he's fit, with trim brown hair and black-rimmed glasses. We're sitting in Budig Hail while he explains the hazy details of the bike crash that "I remember going around the pile and a white bike pop out, and I tbone it and the next thing I remember is staring at the sky," he says. "When I woke up, the paramedics asked if anything hurt. I said, 'My shoulder kind of hurts.' They looked at it right there and said, 'Oh yeah. That's broke.'" broke his collar bone two years ago during a downhill sprint race. Jason is 27, married, and studies "in vivo analysis," which he says involves monitoring how drugs get to where they're supposed to go in organisms. Eventually, he wants to get into microchips. He likes Lawrence well enough, but he misses Hideaway Pizza, his favorite place to eat back in Stillwater, Okla. He got his undergraduate degree at Stillwater's Oklahoma State University. The slow drivers in Lawrence make him crazy. The roads here should have six lanes, he says with a laugh. He's currently spending 10 to 20 hours a week preparing for a five-day pro-amateur race in June. He has won a few smaller races, but he likes to think of himself as Mr. Consistent." "don't win much, but I'm always in the top three or top five." Jason owns five bikes: a race bike, a cross bike, a time-trial bike, a mountain bike and his favorite, a track bike. Track racing is like a cross between NASCAR and running track, except the bikes don't have breaks and the course is steeply banked on all sides. "It's so pure," he says. "It takes away so many of the variables. It's the only time I've been in the zone. I don't hear the people. I don't see the people. It's just what's going on right around me it's like a high." HELLO JASON ROE Almost-married Jason Jason Roe is 21 and engaged to be married in June, but right now he's more focused on finishing his honors thesis about the 1918 influenza pandemic. His fiancée, Lindsey, and her mom are making all the wedding arrangements. "Basically, they tell me what they're doing and I say OK. I go along with whatever they want," he says. We're sitting at a round table in the Kansas Union early on a Friday morning. Roe is about 5-foot-10 and looks like a young Lance Armstrong. He's got a nervous smile that fits his anxious laughter and boyish voice. Jason grew up in lola. As far as he knows, he's the first person in his family named Jason. William and George are the traditional family names. He did know another Jason from his freshman English class, he says. Every time they saw each other they would say, 'Hi Jason.' "Hi Jason." "We just got a kick out of that," he says. "We would HELLO my name is Jason Edwards Jason Ed- laugh really hard." up with it. He pulled out the ring, but before he could propose, she reached across the table, stuck her finger in the ring and said yes. "It's not like I put it on her finger," he jokes. "She was very anxious." The older, wiser Jason Growing up, Jason Edwards, 44, had mom had said Jason should present the ring in some sort of chocolate dessert box, so he had the restaurant make a jewelry box out of chocolate. "It had colored flowers and all that stuff on it," he says. He saw Lindsey for the first time at Mrs.E's when they were freshmen. Jason tried to be cool. He casually checked her out from across the cafeteria. She never knew, he thought. Then, one day, a friend of Lindsey's walked up and dropped a piece of paper in his lap. It had Lindsey's name and phone number written on it. She knew. "I thought I was being subtle, but I guess it was obvious I was looking at her." Jason and Lindsey's wedding will be in Kansas City on June 21. For the proposal, he took Lindsey to her favorite Swiss restaurant. Lindsey's After an awkward phone call and several dates, Jason and Lindsey became a couple. After their first summer together, Jason figured she was the one. "I love spending time with her," he says. "Her personality ended up being what I hoped it would be. It's just good luck, I guess." Every baby name Web site and book I've read says it means "healer," "He is a fine-looking boy," Truman said. Then he walked to Josh and handed him the coin. The Edwardses framed the coin and hung it in the family room.Jason still has it "My mom gave it to me because my brother isn't as interested in that kind of stuff." he says. which my mom likes. She wanted me to be a doctor. a small good-luck coin that President Harry Truman had given his brother when they lived in Independence, Mo. Jason's mom was in the Crown Barber Shop while his older brother Josh got his hair cut. Along came President Truman. He walked in with his cane and took a seat, waiting for the next available chair. Then he turned to Mrs. Edwards and asked, "Is that your boy?" "Yes."she said. We're standing in the cavernous main hall at the Dole Institute of Politics, Jason drove from Kansas City, where he works as senior coordinator for government relations in the office of external affairs at the University of Kansas Medical Campus. He's been a presidential memorabilia enthusiast since his brother's barbershop meeting. He has seen nine of the 12 presidential libraries in the National Archives Presidential Library system — Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Carter, Reagan, the elder Bush and Clinton (he's got Roosevelt, Hoover and Ford left). Bob Dole was never president, but Jason still wanted to see his institute. "It feels very similar to walking into a presidential library," he says. "It kind of reminds me of a chapel." CONTINUED ON PAGE 12 05. 04.2006 JAYPLAY <11 < HELLO my name is Jason Foster CONTINUED FROM PAGE 11 Rock star Jason On the way to a concert in Florida, Jason Foster and his band, Sidewise, had to deal with a broken van — twice. The first time, a fire popped in east St. Louis. Then, somewhere near the Alabama-Florida line, the engine wouldn't start. The AAA repairman showed up with a bowie knife.Not a wrench or a screwdriver, but a genuine frontier hunting weapon. "He goes, 'Errrr,' and it worked, with just a knife." Jason says, holding an imaginary bowie knife. "kind of like Radiohead, or Yes, or tool or maybe Incubus." As a senior, he splits his time between five hours of anthropology courses at KU, 12 hours of audio engineering courses at Kansas City Kansas Community College and roughly 15 hours of band practice every week. "The toughest thing ... is when one of the guys gets a new girlfriend ... Girls can confuse you. They're just trouble." Jason Foster Born in Lincoln, Neb., and raised in Overland Park, Jason became a fan of alternative rock at an early age. He loved the band 311, which originated in Omaha. Wearing a grayish-brown v-neck and gray corduroy pants, he looks the part of a rocker. He's 6-foot-1 and well-built — probably a product of his high school football days. He's got medium-length, straight brown hair that sort of fans out in the back, and he's a fast talker. "I'm the huge go-getter in the band," he says. "It's going to happen. Where there's a will, there's a way." Sidewise plays a sort of progressive rock alternative music, Jason says, Despite the long hours, he has no doubt that playing with Sidewise is what he wants to do. "This is what I want to do with my life," he says. "One way or another it's going to be music or anthropology. Right now the fire is burning for music and the hope is that we're going to create something and make a mark." During the summer he's moving into a three-bedroom house with five other band members to save money and make practicing easier. So far, Sidewale has taken small steps toward success, he says. The band has made two CDs and is working on a third. Two years ago they won a competition in Kansas City, and they've played at the Bottleneck and the Granada several times since then. Their next big gig is this summer at Wakarusa Music and Camping Festival at Clinton Lake, which will be a big accolade, Jason says. He buzbles with energy as he tells me about sharing the stage, determination and making it big. Then he sits up and mentions what he considers to be one of the biggest threats to a band's success: Girls. "The toughest thing to deal with is when one of the guys gets a new girlfriend and stops spending time on what's important," he says. "Girls can confuse you. They're just trouble." "I have a girlfriend, though," he adds. "She is really understanding." Presidential Jason Jason Boots is handing everybody fliers. He strolls down the sidewalk near Stauffer-Flint Hall and approaches a group of people walking to class. Before he can say anything, though, they announce that they have already voted in the Student Senate elections. "All right," he says enthusiastically. "Enjoy the weather." "All four of you?" he asks. "Yup," they tell him. In a red ignite coalition t-shirt and khaki shorts, he's tan from standing outside all day. His eyes look bloodshot, and his lean, 6-foot frame looks tired and at odds with the chipper greetings he bestows upon everyone who passes by. He estimates he has talked to about 75 people during the last three hours and that he has slept about 10 hours in the past week. It's 3 p.m. on the Wednesday of election week. He's the presidential candidate for his coalition, ignite, and the polls close in one hour.

After senate elections last year, fellow student senators were telling him "Boots in '06." He was apprehensive about the proposal,"was like,"Hold on here.We've got a whole year ahead of us with this group,"he says. what we're interested in," he says."If we can help them on a micro level instead of just a macro level, then we've done something for them." But then more and more people told him he should do it. People liked his ability to work with students and administrators, he says. They liked his personality. He should do it. He should run for student body president. "Eventually, I said, 'Okay. This is what I'm going to do.'" More people pass by and he follows. When he returns, he mentions that soliciting himself to unknown students isn't his favorite part of campaigning. "I'm a pretty humble guy, so this doesn't really jive with my personality," he says. "Sometimes it's good and sometimes it's bad. Then, of course, you hear the horror stories about people getting spit on." Chasing Jasons As an engineering major, Jason doesn't know if politics is in his future. He says he's just trying to focus on what's in front of him at the moment, which happens to be another passerby. He straightens up, walks onto the sidewalk and delivers his signature "Howdy." He decided the most important issue was reconnecting with students, getting out among the masses more than just a few times a year. Student Senate has to get a holistic picture, he says. There are 500 student organizations and each one of them the best for its members."That's Jason won the position of student body president that evening with 53 percent of the votes. Of course, my search didn't extend to every Jason at the University. Jason Swanson, for example, the senior quarterback who led the football team to 428 yards total offense in the Jayhawk's first victory against Nebraska since 1968, was a prime candidate, but he never replied to my emails or phone calls. Then there are officers Jason White and Jason Fellbush of the KUPublic Safety office, whom I was eager to ask about the dangers of being a police officer. Here again, though, no replies. There are several law students named Jason, two guys named Jason Carter, a Jason from Houston, one from Monticello, N.Y., and another from Chicago. year Ispoke with a Jason Murray, Leawood senior who's won theatre awards for lead roles in musicals like Crazy For You and Rock Chalk Revue. There is a Jason Shimanek, a pharmacy, student and a self-described pseudo-vegetarian (he still eats fish). I found Jasons in just about every field of study, from civil engineering to theater and film. I found Jasons of different ethnicities, religions and political bents. In short, I found more guys who share my name than I could ever hope to know.

WHY DOES MY BOYFRIEND PRETEND TO BE MACHO IN FRONT OF OTHER GUYS WHEN I AM AROUND? KEISHA, JUNIOR PENN Jessica: Because he's insecure and thinks that he has to act that way in order to prove something to his friends. It's the norm to embellish stories, talk about "chicks" and basically put on a machismo cover in order to socialize. Think about your girlfriends. Don't you tend to be a little more prissy and catty around them? Men and women are just socialized differently. However, if his machismo ever makes you feel disrespected, let him know. It's one thing to act like a meathead in front of the guys, but it's something else to disrespect your significant other. Brian: I'm sure when you're around your friends, you don't treat him any differently, right? Wrong. You're overly lovey-dovey and want him to shower you with more attention when you are around your friends. Don't deny it. You want to show your friends how good of a guy you have, so you hug him, touch him and kiss him more; that way when (if) he reciprocates it, your friends see what they don't have. So essentially, he is just trying to show how many he is even though he has a girlfriend. Remember that you are just as bad as him. Deal with it. HOW DO YOU AND YOUR PARTNER COPE WHEN ONE PERSON ISN'T SEXUALLY AROUSED AND THE OTHER ONE IS? — CHRIS. SOPHOMORE Brian: This is a tough but it can be easily fixed. Putting on a guilt trip isn't going to make the situation better. Also remember that ignoring your partner and doing your business alone won't help things in the future. You need to keep your partner involved by gazing, seductively touching and whispering in the ear. Soon enough, they'll roll over and make you do some work on them. Jessica: You're not in the mood, and he or she is rip-roar'in ready to go. You can't help but feel guilty and obligated to please. My advice is: Don't do it. By having consensual, yet unwanted, sex you're conveying a message to your partner that says you want to when you don't. You should always be honest or you'll end up doing damage. I recommend being direct and sensitive about it. I know you're so turned on right now, but I'm exhausted and I'd really just like to spoon." If he or she can't respect you, then you think about whether you should be with them. If your partner consistently declines physical intimacy, then discussion (not seduction) is in order. There may be something more going on, such as depression. HOW DO YOU GO ABOUT BEING FRIENDS WITH SOMEONE WHO CHEATED ON YOU? — ALANA, SENIOR Brian: You trusted and got betrayed. Don't go into a 'friendship' thinking they have become some great person. Let them be your friend solely in a fun light.

Jessica: I recommend only entering into a friendship if three vital things are in order. 1 you were friends to begin with, 2 you were able to repair your trust in the person and 3 you no longer, have any romantic feelings for him, if those three are met and you really want to salvage, a friendship from a broken romance start by remembering and zaring in on all the things about that person that you like. 14> JAYPLAY 05.04.2006 Cool Cats shop at Love Garden Sounds (785) 843-1551 936 1/2 Mass.

As promotions director for KJHK, Kirbey has attended the past two festivals "It's a magical realm. For a few days, I'm a nymph-like wood dweller who rolls around in the dirt and talks to strange people." Ryilan Ortiz, Kansas State University junior, right, collects waste at last year's Wakarusa Music and Camping Festival. Ortiz founded the recycling program Recyclalusa. Last year, he and 30 volunteers collected about 3 tons of recyclable waste at the festival. to promote the radio station, but being at the festival meant more than doing her day job. It was a call to nature. GERRY SNYDEI *You get into this hippie mindset where you get a glimpse of the simpler life. You could live off the land. All you need are friends, good music, and a tent to sleep in. It's a good reminder INSIDER'S TICKET TIP that life doesn't always have to be so complicated," she says. More than 100 bands will perform outdoors at the Wakarusa Music and Camping Festival beginning June 8 at Clinton State Park. Though music is the main draw to the four-day event, Wakarua differentiates itself from other festivals with its earthfriendly attitude and recreational escapes. Drugs are also a part of the recreational scene — Kirby says people get "pretty fucked up" — but the festival advertises its more conventional (and legal) forms of recreational activities, such as morning yoga, mountain biking, disc golf, wind surfing, swimming and nature hikes. It's not fair to call the festival just a concert, says Brett Mosiman, one of the festival's directors. "It's really a four-day vacation of music and Mother Nature," he says. Camping at the festival is an additional opportunity to reconnect to nature. Since the festival's inception in 2004, camping has been a necessary component because there are not enough hotels in Lawrence to accommodate the influx of festival-goers, Mosiman says. Last year's sold-out crowd of 15,000 drew people from as far away as Germany and Japan. Mosiman says that 80 percent of ticket sales are from outside the Lawrence and Kansas City areas, and that the majority of out-of-towners turn to camping as their accommodation of choice. A large crowd of people inhabiting a space for four days usually means a large accumulation of waste, but Wakarusa Festival organizers are committed to minimizing the environmental impact of the event. Rylan Ortiz, Kansas State University junior, says that he and a team of 30 student volunteers collected about 4,800 pounds of glass, 500 pounds of aluminum, 300 pounds of plastic and 150 pounds of cardboard (almost 3 tons of recyclable waste), at the festival last June. The volunteers are part of Recycalusa, a recycling program Ortiz created last year. Though some were motivated to exchange their recyclable goods for the free t-shirts offered by the program, Ortiz says the recyclers are all environmentally-conscious. "People may be at the festival to party and have fun, but people like recycling, too. It's good for the psyche," Ortiz says. At Its heart, the festival is about For the thousands traveling long distances to the venue, Mosiman says concert-goers have the opportunity to "green" their travel. For the first time, the festival is teaming up with the Bonneville Environmental Foundation, a private, non-profit organization that funds environmentally-preferred energy projects.

David Barrett has attended numerous national music festivals, such as Bonnaroo,inTennessee,and 10,000 Lakes, in Michigan, as a festival promoter for his company, TeamB productions. But the Carbondale, Ill., senior, says that some of his most memorable experiences have been at Wakarusa. "The festival focuses on bringing people together. Everyone comes back late at night and talks about all the different things they did that day around the campfire. For four days, it's like you have a new family," he says.

BY STEVEN KING Part zombie tale and part social fable, Cell is Stephen King's scariest novel in years, sparing no gore or horror. It can also be called his first techno-thriller; it's something you'd expect Michael Crichton's dark side to conjure up. If nothing else, the story is timely. These days, you P can't spit without hitting someone with a cell phone glued to their ear, and you can't turn on the news without being reminded that biological and chemical warfare are real dangers. Cell's story follows an event in which braindeadening agents attack millions of people via cell phones. Victims turn into violent zombies (think 28 Days Later with a terrorist attack instead of a sickness). In this post-apocalyptic nightmarish world, small groups of "normies"—those without cell phones who STEPHEN KING CELL A NOVEL are immune from the attack — are left to defend for themselves. They're led by Clayton Ridell, an illustrator who's trying to find his wife and son in the pandemonium, The social commentary in King's book is a clear indictment of our technology and communication obsessions. King himself does not own a cell phone and writes his novels either longhand or by typewriter. He is the perfect author to bring the cell phone cult down a peg. With the completion of his Dark Tower series, King seems free to explore and loosen up a bit. Many of his earlier works went into minute details about town histories — such as his beloved Derry and Castle Rock — and secondary characters, which tended to make the novels seem almost plodding in places (look no further than the cubic epic it). Cell has no such baggage. As a result, it's a much faster read with a lot less weight on it. Down the road, Cell may be called the novel in which Stephen King got his groove back. Price: $26.95 Available in hardcover ★★★★ Kelsey Hayes STICK IT MOVIE Stick It was written and directed by the writer of *Bring It On*. That tells you a lot of what you need to know. It's bright and shiny, with a pop-punk and hip hop soundtrack, quite a few joyously dumb moments and dialogue that could've been witty if the director had wanted it to be. it's a little something for the 14-year-old girl in all of us. The story follows Haley Graham (Missy Peregym), a rebellious young woman who would rather go to military school than return to gymnastics, the sport she denounced years ago. But, the judge doesn't give her the choice — for her crime (crashing a bike through the window of a house) she is sentenced to hard time in gymnastics school. The ensuing movie is mostly free of dramatic tension. Haley is a troubled The ensuing movie is mostly free of dramatic tension. Halley is a troubled youth in a scaffoldy, clean drug-free, non-violent sort of way. The villains in the story are only peripheral. The training is hard, but it's nothing a little musical montage or two can't handle. The film lags in the middle, unable to maintain momentum when nothing momentous is happening. Most sports movies would solve this problem by pretending the anticlimactic events are hugely important — that sports can save the day, the world, our relationships, our souls, etc. Stick it doesn't go there. Instead, the athletes try to save the sport. The movie actually has something to say about gymnastics Admittedly, it doesn't have a whole lot to say about anything else. But what does that matter when you can watch people in colorful VIVA leaptards do gravity-defying stunts to catchy music?

A mass-marketed funeral complete with concession stands and dramatic music." United 93 is not that bad of a film. The acting could have been better and the cinematography made me horribly dizzy. But it does what it aims to do — make you horribly depressed. think you morning depressed. For the first hour, I felt wrong for watching it. I wanted to slink out of my seat because I had just contributed S6 to something that's using a tragedy, and a main justification for war, to make millions of dollars.I tried to swallow my guilt and focus on positive aspects.The film is shot in real time and director Paul Greengrass' background in documentaries certainly comes through. The air traffic controller characters seem truly befuddled and in denial about what is going on, which is probably how they actually felt on September 11,2001. The film focuses solely on Flight 93, and it's done with more tact and taste than I could have imagined. It's obviously terribly sad to watch the doomed passengers call their loved ones and say goodbye for the last time. It's frightening to watch the bomb-strapped terrorists stab first-class passengers and the pilots. It could have been done in a more dramatized, desperately-pulling-at-your-heartstrings way, however, I was thankful the film didn't sink to that. The heroism of the passengers is evident. Why Hollywood felt a need to remind us of something we can still vividly recall is not so evident. It's one thing to have something on the Discovery Channel about 9/11. It's quite another to make a blockbuster out of it. Mr. Beast The passengers of United 93 certainly deserve more respect than they can ever be paid. Their bravery is profoundly admirable.I just wonder how they would have felt about this film. Rated: R, 111 minutes South Wind 12 ★★ Ashley Thompson Mogwai brings an epic sound full of powerful peaks and subtle lows. The band's mostly-instrumental music recalls Sigur Ros, but unlike the Icelandic musicians, whose songs generally climb into the six or seven minute range and feature long, repeated parts, Mogwai keeps its songs to about four minutes and features a variety of melodies. My favorite track is "Acid Food," which despite the biting name, is one of the softest tracks on the album. It features electronic drumbeats and a descending guitar part to go with the vocals. "Friend Of The Night" is another great track, with its powerful chord progression, leaving listeners moved by the strong emotional piano parts. The album loses some appeal because of its lack of vocals on most songs, which could leave listeners kind of bored. But other than that, the music is great and makes for a good album. ★★★★ Chris Brower Join us for the Fiesta of the Year!

One woman's repeated triumph over illness by Rachel Zupek OK I opened my eyes, blinded by fluorescent lights. Something in my throat itched, but when I tried to clear it, no noise came out. Slowly, I brought my hand to my mouth and felt a tube feeding into my nostrils, trailing down my throat. I rolled my head to the side and looked at my left arm. It was decorated with an intricate design of dried blood, tubes, wires and IVs. Then everything faded to black. By the time my parents got to me, I had been seizing for 12 hours. I was unconscious, intubated and hooked up to ventilators. Dried blood matted my vomit-covered hair to my face. Doctors didn't know what was wrong with me. Throughout the week, they ran various tests — MRIs, CAT scans, spinal taps, blood tests. Still, they had no conclusions. The days that followed are as blurry as that first time I woke up in the hospital. I was in the ICU at Lawrence Memorial Hospital the entire week before Christmas. My memory of that week is mostly contingent on what my family and friends tell me. I have a few of my own vague recollections. I remember waking up and the doctor asking me if I knew where I was. I remember recognizing my best friend Brittany and not my mom. I remember playing a "game" with the doctor, in which he told me three items and I had to repeat them; I could only remember two, a penny and a rose. I remember assuring my then-boyfriend I would be leaving on Christmas Day to visit him in Germany. I don't remember anything else. I was on the verge of the kind of illness that makes everyone around you think you're not going to make it. Just before finals week freshman year, I was exhausted, coughing and sneezing, and I had a temperature of 102. I went to Watkins, where the doctors gave me an inhaler to "help me breathe." After a weekend spent partying with my out-of-town friends, I did what I could to study for tests, but continued to suffer. On Monday night, I took my first final. That's the last thing I remember. My friends tell me that on Tuesday, I was acting strangely, walking like a zombie and being rude to everyone. My roommate Emily woke up around 2 a.m. on Wednesday to me grunting and snorting in my sleep. A few minutes later, she heard breaking glass. She looked down from the top bunk to see me, foaming at the mouth, my forehead cut and bleeding, eyes rolled back in my head. She called 911 as I continued to seize and vomit until an ambulance came. I went home to Iowa on Christmas Eve. I continued to see neurologists and infectious disease doctors. By the end of break, they still didn't know what was wrong with me. Doctors said I couldn't go back to KU until they figured it out, so I spent spring semester taking only two classes at the University of Iowa. Turns out, I had encephalitis (swelling of the brain) and a mycoplasma blood infection. In other words, my brain swelled because of stress and dehydration, which caused the seizures. At the same time, I had bronchitis and, since it went undiagnosed, the bacteria built up in my blood. Both illnesses were gone as quickly as they came, and I haven't seized since December 16, 2002. I came back to KU at the beginning of sophomore year. It's an eye-opening experience to look back on an incident and realize you almost died. To be honest, it took me awhile to grasp the seriousness of the illness I suffered. But as soon as I did, I saw things differently — and at first, I didn't see them positively. I pitied myself and wondered what I did to deserve a rare illness that caused me to transfer schools and put my life on hiatus. Then, when I developed a blood clot near my heart my sophomore year (which resulted in a rib removal and another stay in the ICU) I got pissed. Was karma punishing me for all my wrongdoings? Finally, when I studied abroad last spring in Spain and underwent yet another surgery, all I thought was, if God is going to keep dishing me crap, I'll continue to take it — and I'll cope. Looking back, I realize I could've milked each situation for all each was worth. But I didn't. Because of my setbacks in school, my work ethic is extremely strong. I've worked my ass off to graduate in four years with two degrees. I've acquired an acute awareness for when something isn't right in my body, and I take care of it. I don't think I'm better than anyone else who has faced a difficult situation in life; I've just learned how to deal with hardships in my own way. I've changed my mentality about life; I believe that if I've survived everything I have, I'm here for a reason. I refuse to let a few small bumps in the road hold me back from all I want from life. Instead, I say, "Bring it on." > > 05.04.2006 JAYPLAY <19 Weekly Specials @Kansan.com Jayhawk CNRF Thu Fri Sat Sun Mon Tues Wed Jayhawk CANS LAWRENCE $2 Double Wells $3.50 Double Calls $2 Jager Bombs $1.50 Pints $3 House Martinis $4 Double Jack Drinks $3.50 Double Bacardi Drinks $2.50 Corona & Pacific Bottles $2.25 Domestic Bottles $3.50 Double Captain, Skyy, & Jim Beam Drinks $2 Big Beers $1 Roiling Rock $1.50 Apple Jacks $1.50 SoCo/Lime $1 Wells $1 Pucker $1 Natural Light, PBR & MHL Bottles $1.50 Domestic Bottles $1.50 Smirnoff, UV, & Bacardi Flavored Drinks $1 Wells $1.50 Calls $1.50 Domestic Bottles $2 Premium Drinks $2 Premium Beers $3 Puckertinis ABEJAKE'S CINCO DE MAYO PARTY TOMORROW!

It was dedicated by the Chinese vice minister of education. The other three are in Washington, D.C., Chicago, and New York City. The Chinese Ministry of Education chose the University of Kansas because of its strong and well-known Chinese and East Asian Studies pro WWW.KANSAN.COM grams. The University and the state have both had a successful relationship with China in the past. The Institute "goes beyond languages to culture." Todd Cohen, University spokesman, said. Bill Tsutsui, the Institute's director, said it would take several offices in Regnier Hall and would offer non-credit classes for both KU students and the community on subjects like business etiquette and how Confuciusianism affects China. The Confucius Institute will provide education in the Chinese language, but it will also provide a cultural education for businessmen and women seeking to work in China. It will also have cultural programming like film festivals, lectures and speech contests in Chinese, and will often collaborate with the Center for East Asian Studies on the Lawrence campus to bring events here. "We're a public university and we're supposed to be serving Kansans," Tsutsu said, explaining the programs the Institute would offer the community. 图 Jared Gah/KANSAN SEE INSTITUTE ON PAGE 4A Shelley Wu, Olathe resident, performs a traditional Chinese solo on the Gu Zheng, a Chinese table harp, during "An Evening of Music and Dance" last night.

The group was one of the award winners at the Student Involvement and Leadership Center's student involve end of the year celebration Thursday at the Hawk's Nest in the Kansas Union. The group plans to hold the event annually. The center received more than 60 applications in five categories. Jennifer Meilt, KUSSH president, said the group's community work convinced its members to apply for the awards. Meilt said it was exciting for her group to be recognized on the university level. The Student Involvement and Leadership Center presented its 2005-2006 awards at their end of the year celebration Thursday. Here are the 11 winners: This year marked the group's second- annual research conference. The members created the event to connect KU researchers with local speech language and hearing practitioners who needed to complete continuing education. The benefit to the community made the effort worthwhile, Meitl said.

The long-haired black cat was given to Sacramento's Animal Care Services last week, where an employee scanned him for a microchip, a routine procedure. The number on the chip was used to track down Allison MacEwan of Seattle, who said she placed newspaper ads and went door-to-door with fliers in a futile search for her lost cat a decade ago. "It was very surreal," said MacEwan about first hearing the news. "I was completely surprised. I mean, completely." Officials on Wednesday said they weren't sure how the cat wound up in Sacramento. MacEwan's daughter was 4 years old when her cat disappeared, and officials said she was now looking forward to being reunited with her childhood pet.

Carla Wilson, spokeswoman for the Bureau of Prisons in Washington, would not confirm that Moussaoui will be a Supermax inmate. Worms CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A "Most people concentrate on the front end and what type of grass worms eat. I thought, well what about all the grass that comes out the other end?" James said. Avoiding the dismal motel room, he found a construction crew outside with the same idea. Within minutes, James realized they were far from like-minded. After all, the crew was there to dig into the earth to put in a gas pipeline and James was there digging for earthworms. The crew drank beer while James obliged them and listened to their hunting stories. This may have gone on until the question came up, "So what do you do Sam?" The conversation quickly took a turn when James told the crew what he told them. "One guy kept getting drunker and madder. He was mad that I could actually make a living digging for earthworms and that His long-standing work partner, George Brown, researcher for the Brazilian Corporation for Agricultural Research, tipped him off on this search. Brown continues to seek James' help because there is not an earthworm taxonomist in Brazil. I work for a university," he said Hasiotis caught James while he was on campus, a place James rarely visits. Instead, James digs in the world's soils, in places like the Philippines, the Caribbean and Fiji, looking for earthworms. Though earthworms can help link to other types of research, like arthritis therapy, some people find it hard to believe anyone could make a living digging in the dirt. James recalls a trip to southwest Texas where he met such criticism. In Brazil, James recently rediscovered an earthworm, called Fimoscolex sporodochaetux, which was declared extinct in 2003. No one had bothered to look for the earthworm for years, he said. "Just because something is declared extinct doesn't mean it is," James said. "It just means no one has gone to look for it." James' interest in the interactions between North America's grasses and grazers led him down the dirty path of earthworm ecology. James noticed earthworms wriggling through bison manure and wondered about the relationship, since earthworms help plow the soil by providing air and circulation. No research had been published on American grassland worms and James decided that would be a good place to start. "Maybe it is a rural male thing, but not one wants to seem like they are interested in formal education. It is almost taboo. And these guys were representatives of that," James said. Still, they laughed at him and asked "When are you going to get a real job?" "Sam is one of those adventure-type persons who is not afraid to go to far away places and walk to the middle of nowhere to dig for worms," Brown said, "something that is increasingly necessary to find new species." As a child growing up in Iowa, he used earthworms for bait when he went fishing. He doesn't mind people using them for bait but he does care if they are being over-exploited. To which James replied, "I hope I don't have to." Brown said that it is important to find representatives of all earthworm species because they have many effects on the soil and plant communities, and in turn, human beings. He said that understanding what they do is just a step. Understanding who they are and how to classify them is their first. There are over 4,000 species worldwide and James sets out to find representatives of each species and also collects worms that may not be classified. He has about 400 un-named worms in his lab now. Based on where researchers have already gone, he heads a different direction. Florida and Brazil have this problem and the earthworms there are in danger of extinction. The baiting industry is regulated in Florida now, he said, but it is not in Brazil, although it is illegal to gather wildlife without a permit. The baiting rebels pushing their luck are helping James in a way. "We see signs on the road that say 'We Sell Earthworms' so we stop, look and we'll buy them if they are interesting. And we preserve them," he said. "We ask where they got them but they won't always tell us." If he had to do it all over again he said he would be a geologist and not a biologist. "My oldest daughter Pearl got in a bush that was covered with leeches and she screamed, 'I'm covered with leeches' and at the same time we could hear Sam up ahead yelling, 'I got a worm! I got a big worm!'" she said. "It's always like that in a way, there is always this kind of thing going on." His travels never stop and trips to the Amazon and Europe are in the works. "I would do geology and spend all day looking for rocks. Wandering for worms is pretty much similar in some ways though." But for now, the KU researcher continues trailblazing, digging for earthworms all around the world. James' wife Joy said he was the best person to travel with because he observes more than the average person. Though they may not always get to share in the knowledge because James takes off on his wild worm chase. She said once he started a project he just kept going and doesn't really need to stop to eat and drink. Eight hours climbing mountains in the rain forest without rest and food was a bit much for her and the kids however. Within a week, James will be walking along the Louisiana coast for specimens before going to finish his work in the Philippines where he has worked extensively and intermittently over the past few years. His family of four accompanied him for six months during one of his visits in 2001. They assisted him in his search in the remote woods. - Edited by John Jordan OPEN HOUSE THIS SUNDAY 11-2! www.TheLegendsatKU.com LEGENDARY STUDENT LIVING.

MAY 5, 2006 --- STATE First measles case of year hits Kansas BY JOHN HANNA THE ASSOCIATED PRESS TOPEKA — With Kansas already seeing an unusual outbreak of mumps, health officials confirmed the state's first cases of measles in more than five years. The Department of Health and Environment announced Thursday that its lab had identified three measles cases in Harvey County, all in people under 21. County officials said they didn't know whether the three cases were related. NO. WAL MUMPRS VIRUS VACCINE HP II INFORMATION WAL NO. 230157489000 Charlie Nolberghall/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS A nurse holds a vial of the measles- nums-rubella vaccine. More of the vaccine needs to be made now that cases of the disease have resurfaced. The last confirmed measles cases were in 2000, when two people had the disease. Children are supposed to get two doses of the MMR vaccine, against mumps, measles and rubella, one before they are 18 months old and a second before they enter school. "It's very possible that we will see more cases because this is a contagious illness," said KDHE spokeswoman Sharon Watson. "Measles is much easier to transmit than mumps." Watson said the department is still investigating whether the latest measles victims had received both MMR vaccines. As with the mumps outbreak, it's possible the measles victims were properly vaccinated. "There is a small percentage of people who get vaccinated who do not respond to the vaccine," Watson said. "No vaccine is 100 percent effective." As of Thursday, the state had 434 reported or probable mumps cases in 43 counties. Typically, Kansas sees only a few mumps cases each year; there were none in 2005. The outbreak has been widespread in the Midwest, with Iowa reporting almost 1,500 cases this year as of Monday. Institute CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A One reason Kansas was chosen as a site was that China was the third-largest importer of Kansas products. Cohen said the Institute could provide relevant information on trade and economics for Kansans who wish to do business there. The Confucius Institute will also support language teachers and provide standardized language testing for people. Tsutsui said the standardized Chinese language test helped employers judge an applicant's skills better. The University was asked to be the site of the Institute when Chancellor Robert Hemenway went to Beijing on a courtesy call to the ministry of education. Tsutsui said he thought Hemenway did an outstanding job of selling the University to the Chinese ministry after the initial offer. Tsutsui is a Japanese expert, but was chosen as director because of his work on outreach. He said he has been working with Kindergarten through 12th-grade schools throughout the state, trying to establish more Asian-language programs. Right now, several Confucius Institutes exist in Europe, Africa and East Asia, but the Chinese government intends to have 100 sites when all is said and done. Forty of them will be in the United States. Daldorph CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A — Edited by Jodi Ann Holopirek CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A "All right class, let's begin," he says calmly, as he adjusts his thin-framed glasses. Daldorph's subtle English accent closes the room, even more apparent when he utters the words "heart" or "car." As he speaks, the inmates are listening intently to everything he mentions. The 17 inmates are sitting in a circle, dressed in their oversized, baggy jumpsuits. Orange, blue, white, the colors represent the security pods where each of the inmates dwell — inmate workers, minimum and medium. Yellow and white identification bracelets dangle loosely from their wrists. The inmates defy all stereotypes within the prison system, with representatives from all ages and races. In his class, the inmates are not bound or restrained and allowed to move around in the room. Daldorph recognizes the importance of the poetry class for his jailed students. "For many of the students, their incarceration is a time when they have to slow down and think about their lives. Jail time does give them the opportunity for this," Daldorph says. "Artistic expression, whether in writing, painting, song, or any other way, is often a vital way for them to come to terms with their lives, and to give a voice to their experience." Daldorph says he got "hooked" after he substituted for the previous teacher a few times and began teaching full-time at the jail in 2001. For students, the creative writing class is a welcome distraction from their cramped jail cells and legal troubles. Brian, an inmate in his early 20s who is serving time for robbery, says that the class is something to look forward to and that it removes the stresses and worries of doing time. "All we have is time in here," Brian says, "time to think about getting out. And when we have this class, you stop thinking about it, at least for a little while." The writing forum has a few parameters: No excessive use of profanities, and limited references to drugs, alcohol and violence. Those limits are tested but most students recognize when they are pushing the envelope. Michael Caron, programs director at the Douglas County Jail, says that the poetry class is very popular with inmates because Daldorph never lectures, or corrects. Rather, he places the students at his level and never puts himself above them. "Brian conveys a real passion for what he is doing. Everyone knows that he is here because poetry matters," Caron says. The class begins with students reading poems that they wrote from the last week for 20 minutes. "The wealth of exceptional poetry and prose keeps accumulating. He calls himself a facilitator, but at the bottom he is a wonderful teacher." The second segment of the class consists of the students writing for about 15 minutes. Daldorph scribbles a number of topics on the blackboard for the inmates to use as fuel for their writing engines, but students are not required to use the subject matter. Today, random words such as "Cadillac," "amputate," "elephant" and "window" are on the blackboard. Class in a jail Johnny Cash's "I don't know where I'm bound" plays quietly in the room, as students calmly compose new poems. Students spend the third and final segment of the class reading more of their poetry. Students share their poems with each other. A handful of them dominate the class by sharing four or five poems at a time. Others share only one poem and the circle quietly moves along. After the class has finished reading, students offer reflections on the class session. James, the slightly overweight elder statesman of the class in his mid-50s, is eager to talk. Gesturing with two forearms covered with numerous tattoos, he says, "The public is not aware that many of us are going to be their neighbors. How we come out of a place like this could be for better or for worse. This program lets you write and reflect on yourself and hopefully you will not repeat those same mistakes." James says the program helps students realize their mistakes and lets them vent rather than dwell on their current situation. The class ends and students return to their security pods and confinement. They will have time to collect their thoughts and expressions for next Thursday's class. Daldorph says he understands how unique the class is and he marvels at the work of some of the students. He's taught in different countries with different types of students, but he says teaching at the jail is "the real prize of my collection." "I love the raw energy of the class and the dedication of some of the students," he says. "The class can be used as a positive in their lives that often knows little but negativity." Marathons, soccer and books Daldorph grew up in Yorkshire, England, where his dad was a road engineer and his Marathons, soccer and books mother a housewife. He was the youngest of three siblings and the teaching bug infected his two older sisters as well. Christine and Helen both teach middle school in England. Daldorph says some of his fondest memories are going to work with his dad, hanging out at the beach on holidays and playing soccer. As a youngster, Daldorph loved to swim, and the "breathtaking" views of the sea near his home have always fascinated him. Growing up as an avid Manchester United soccer fan, Daldorph would often make the one-hour trip to London to see his favorite team. He grew up playing soccer, day and night. Soccer still plays an integral part in his life. His youngest daughter, Lucy, plays soccer at Central Junior High in Lawrence. Daldorph also plays. But for "a complete break from academia," he loves to go running. The average four- or five-mile run down the street from his house is usually enough to keep Daldorph content. But every now and then he will go an extra mile or 26. He has competed in the Boston Marathon three times. "It's great because most people will never play in the Super Bowl or a big sporting event," he says. "I ran in one of the best races in the world with some of the best runners in the world." Daldorph attended college in England, but ended up teaching in the United States. He says he loves the energy of American culture. He once contemplated careers in law and journalism, but poetry and teaching became his calling. Daldorph has written three books of poems, "The Holocaust and Hiroshima Poems," "Outcasts" and his latest offering, "Senegal Blues," in 2003. He loves writing books, but at times, he craves a quicker response for his work. It might take two or three years to get a response from a book project. "With journalism or performing a concert, you get that immediate impact," he says. "I wish writing a book could have that instant reaction." His poetry has transported Daldorph throughout the world, including pit stops in Japan, Africa and much of Europe. Byron Caminero-Santangelo, director of English graduate studies, who traveled with Daldorp to Zambia, called Daldorph an amazing teacher, father and friend. "He is a dedicated and imaginative teacher, who is committed to his poetry," Santangelo says. "He can push students to do their best work." Daldorph is driven by his passion for poetry and the power of the spoken word — its ability to convey emotional, funny or sad messages through a simple line of writing. Lauren Grieb, Lenena junior and student in his Poetry Writing I class, calls Daldorph the most thoughtful professor she had ever encountered. "His passion is unmatched by any teacher I have ever had. I've never seen someone work so hard to bring out the potential in students," she says. "He goes above and beyond for his students." Daldorph's favorite part of teaching is when he has a student who isn't quite sure what they are doing in the class. The student sits through class after class with looks of disinterest and apathy. Then, similar to the old cartoon, the light switch goes on. "Suddenly about halfway during the course, he starts figuring it out and poetry becomes interesting to him." Daldorph says. "He starts writing poems from the heart and can do some really remarkable work." Back at home After a long day of being a teacher and volunteer, Daldorph enters the third phase of his life. He returns home to be with the two most important people in his life, his daughters Brenna and Lucy. Both of them share their father's passion for reading, writing, poetry and soccer. Brenna and Lucy also share their father's love for England, and the family looks forward to making the trip across the pond twice a year. Daldorph's eyes glow and he exudes a subdued excitement when he talks about England, almost as if he recognizes it as his secret James Bond double-agent life. "I feel like I have two countries. I miss England, but my family and I visit twice a year," he says. "It's important because we have family members and friends out there and I want my daughters to know England." But he also calls the United States his home. At his Lawrence home, Daldorph lays his backpack on the floor, flops onto his couch and unwinds from the day by listening to music from Bob Dylan and Ray LaMontagne. Another day in the books, literally and figuratively, Daldorph is already preparing another lesson plan for his students at the jail. He realizes the benefits of the class, but also knows the class cannot solve all of the inmates' problems. "The same faces show up in my class again and again. I think that the writing class and other learning opportunities at the jail show the inmates' better ways," Daldorph says. "But they have to choose to make use of them."

U.S. District Judge Leonie Brinkema, center, sentenced Moussaoui to life in prison. ALEXANDRIA, Va. — U.S. Judge Leonie Brinkema sent Zacarias Moussaoui to prison for life Thursday, to "die with a whimper," for his role in the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. The convicted terrorist declared; "God save Osama See page 3A for a story about Moussa- aoui's maxi- mum security prison. Brinkema and the unrepentant Moussaoul capped the two-month trial with an intense exchange that will mark the bin Laden — you will never get him." defendant's last public words before his incarceration in a maximum security prison in Colorado. A day earlier, a jury rejected the government's case to have Moussaoul executed, deciding instead to should spend life in prison with no chance of parole. Not all jurors were convinced that Moussaoul, who was in jail on immigration charges Sept. 11, had a significant part in the attacks, despite his boastful claims that he did. Brinkema firmly refused to be interrupted by the 37-year-old defendant as she disputed his declaration from a day earlier. "America, you lost ... I won." Brinkema said it was proper he will be kept away from outsiders, unable to speak publicly again. "You will spend the rest of your life in a supermax prison," Brinkema said. "It's absolutely clear who won." "Mr. Moussaudi, you came here to be a martyr in a great bang of glory," she said, "but to paraphrase the poet T.S. Eliot, instead you will die with a whisper." At that point, Moussaoui tried again to interrupt her, but she raised her voice and spoke over him. "You will never get a chance to speak again and that's an appropriate ending." Brinkema sentenced Moussaoui to six life terms without the chance of parole, with two terms to be served consecutively. She informed him of his right to appeal the sentence and said she would ask his court-appointed lawyers to file the required notice as a precaution before relieving them from the case. "I believe it would be an act of futility," she said of an appeal, "but you do have a right." band Bob in the attack on the Pentagon, was one of three family members of victims allowed to speak at the brief sentencing hearing.

They were waiting to hear the conditions of his sentencing. Scott, who attended much of the trial, said after the hearing that Moussaoui's antics over the last two months irritated him. Moussaoui walked into the courtroom flashing a victory sign. Moussaoui's mother Aicha El Wafi, pressed for her country to intervene. "Now he is going to die in little doses," she said. "He is going to live like a rat in a hole. What for? They are so cruel."

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN SA NATION NATION BY LIBRY QUAID THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — Hoping to prevent a scare over deadly bird flu, the government is distributing television and radio commercials assuring people that chicken is safe to eat. "Mmm, that chicken looks great. But what about bird flu?" a man asks in one of the ads. Authorities don't know how people will react once the deadly virus arrives in the United States. Initially, those messages may run up against heavy promotion by ABC of its made-for-television movie, "Fatal Contact: Bird Flu in America." The promos feature how ill-prepared the country is to deal with the problem. Commercials aim to ease bird flu fear His wife says she read that bird flu is unlikely to reach people's dinner plates. "And even if it did, we have the power to ensure our chicken is safe," she says. An announcer lists four steps for food safety: Clean hands and cooking surfaces. Separate raw and cooked foods. Cook poultry to at least 165 degrees. Chill left-over promptly. When bird flu was discovered in France and Italy, consumer demand for chicken plummeted there. It stayed steady when the virus appeared in Britain. The Agriculture Department on Thursday began sending out a series of commercials, interview excerpts, video footage and photos to television and radio stations with the goal of easing people's minds and clearing up misconceptions about bird flu. Americans generally are considered to be confident in their food supply, and eat more chicken than any country in the world. The average person ate 85.8 pounds of chicken last year, a total that should rise to While bird flu has spread from Asia throughout Europe and Africa, it hasn't yet reached the United States. "But it's important for you to know that it's safe to eat poultry, even if bird flu is detected here sometime in the future," Richard Raymond, the department's undersecretary for food safety, says in one of the commercials. 87. 7 pounds in 2006, according to USDA projections. The government is testing wild birds as they arrive this month in Alaska and then fly south along migratory pathways. Chicken and turkey companies have been testing nearly every flock for the virus. "You do have the power to make sure your food is safe," Raymond adds. Agriculture Secretary Mike Johanns, in another spot, said finding the virus in the U.S. "would not signal the start of a human flu pandemic." "The virus is not efficiently spreading from person to person," Johanns said. While it does not spread easily among humans, the virus has killed at least 113 people who had close contact with sick birds. The fear is that it might adapt to spread rapidly from person to person, causing a global epidemic. Ads that focus on that aspect of bird flu are still in the works, said Bill Hall, a Health and Human Services Department spokesman. Like the Agriculture Department spots, the message would be that the arrival of bird flu does not signal a public health emergency, Hall said. Messages probably would also include information about proper hygiene, such as the need to cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze, Hall said. STOP SALE!

The editorial board YOUR OPINION Column neglects other forms of love Editor's note: The comment below was posted on kansan.com in reference to Courtney Hagen's column, "Study's findings reveal love is universal to all." The comment appears uncorrected and unedited. "If these are the things that love is like, I want nothing to do with it. I am married to the woman I love with all my heart and I must say that there is not a thing on this world I can compare it too." "However, the problem with this column is that it focuses only on romantic love. Why not focus on other kinds as well? Knowing that no matter how much I screw up or what I do, my parents will love me. What about brotherly love where you will beat the living crap out of them but if someone else speaks ill of them, you immediately stick up for them? What about love between friends? Knowing that no matter how long you go without speaking or seeing each other, when you reunite, it is as if you saw each other yesterday." ECONOMY GAS PRICES Misconceptions about veganism need clarification COMMENTARY I'm used to getting strange looks from people. If I'm not getting sideways glances for wearing mint green Doris Day-like dresses with holey blue jeans or dancing in the rain in my night gown in the afternoon, I always get a strange look whenever I tell people I'm a vegan. Some people have an expression of disbelief upon hearing that a fellow homo sapien could be alive and standing without animal products in their diet. Some look in a awe that I can sustain such a complex lifestyle. Others glare back in mocking disgust because they themselves need meat. Most non-vegans seem to have a great many misconceptions about vegans. I will dispel some of these myths. In reality, protein is in almost everything and requires no "planning" to acquire. Ever look at the protein in whole grain bread? Pasta? Glance at a helping of peas, beans, rice, lentils, cereal, peanut butter, nuts, granola bars or any other foods you already have in your cabinets. Protein is in just about everything. A vegan does need to remember to take a multi-vitamin containing B12 and iron, but besides that, the lifestyle is pretty low maintenance. MYTH 1: You must have a hard time getting protein. your favorite foods. Plus, there are a lot of everyday foods that you wouldn't expect to be vegan. Plus, I've opened myself up to a lot of wonderful dishes I might not have discovered eating the same old chicken and potatoes that I fared onun as a kid. MYTH 3: I would die without meat. In actuality, a strictly vegan diet isn't a diet, but a lifestyle. There are no food restrictions, only new and delicious alternatives. Thanks to the popularity of the vegetarian and vegan lifestyle, there are lots of affordable and scrumptious substitutes for any of MYTH 2: Your diet must be unbearably restrictive. There are so many good meat substitutes that are a lot cheaper, easier to prepare, and more delicious than meat. Tofu, vegan grillers and falafel are just a few examples of easy and fast vegan foods that will make you completely forget about taking the time to cook and spend money on meat. MYTH 4: Vegans are the most unhealthy people on the planet. Researching the answer to this question was tricky. A great many of the Web sites with information about veganism are pro-vegan. Instead of relying on biased information, I looked at different and recent research by the American Cancer Institute and other government sanctioned research in both the United States and the United Kingdom. All the research indicated that vegans and vegetarians are, as a group, significantly more healthy than their omnivore counterparts. Vegans have a greatly reduced risk for heart disease and various cancers. Still, there is a controversy about pregnant women and children adopting the vegan lifestyle, so more research is needed. From personal experience, I can vouch for the health benefits and energy I have gained from switching to veganism. I've lost weight in a healthy way, without reverting I also feel better not eating animal products and not supporting the meat packing industry. Still, diet and exercise is vital to any healthy lifestyle, so mine isn't ideal unless dancing in the rain qualifies as exercise. to starving or strange, cardboard flavored diet bars. I have more energy. An acne problem that I had for more than three years and visited multiple dermatologists about is gone. Being vegan does make you check all food labels for animal products. I've become aware of all the weird preservatives and unhealthy ingredients found in a lot of processed food. MYTH 5: Being vegan only encompasses diet. Veganism does spread to other animal products, such as fur, feather, and leather. Refraining from using toiletries and other products that are tested on animals or contain animal products is another part of the vegan lifestyle. Overall, I don't expect to change anyone's dietary view point. I merely hope to show that a vegan diet isn't as far-fetched or as challenging as people may believe. As a long time vegetarian, I always viewed dietary veganism as impossible despite my convictions to refrain from using all animal products. But, after finally buckling down with the lifestyle and experiencing the benefits, I understand why others can stick with veganism. The lifestyle isn't as complicated or as challenging as you think.

I multitask like everyone else. I watch TV while doing my homework. I do the crossword puzzle during class. Right now, I'm listening to a speaker, taking notes and writing this column. All my friends will say the same thing: If I'm not doing several things at a time or going four different directions, something is not right. I have been known to send and receive text messages while attempting to maneuver through downtown Kansas City, Mo., change the songs on my iPod while cruise through St. Louis on Interstate 70 and answer my cell phone whenever it rings, no matter where I'm driving. Doing one thing at a time is just boring. I know I'm not alone. By August, the city of Lawrence may have taken this connection away from us. I say that's not fair. We are all young, technologically advanced college students who have a desire to be connected to friends and family at all times. The Lawrence Traffic Safety Commission this week tabled two ordinances that dealt with using cell phones while driving. This means we can continue to use our phones while we drive without penalties — at least until July, when they plan to vote on the issue again. Then, they will decide if Lawrence should implement a complete citywide ban on mobile devices while driving. I see one main problem if this ban passes: No matter what happens, people will still talk on their phones in the car, and this will make enforcement a difficult task. Just like with speeding, some people get caught. Some don't. Catching cell phone users will be incredibly hit or miss. Some people may chat all the time and never get caught while others may make one emergency phone call and get smacked with a fine. It is apparent the city knows this is one problem the ban will cause. In an article in the Lawrence Journal-World, both a city attorney and a police officer discussed enforceability as a problem In general, I think this ban has good intentions, keeping both drivers and pedestrians safe, but at the same time it seems pretty crazy and probably won't work. The Governors Highway Safety Association, a non-profit organization that deals with highway safety, produced a report about cell phone bans. The report said that no states currently ban cell phone usage in automobiles completely, but that some areas do have bans. It also said that more research needs to be done to help lawmakers decide on the best option. Maybe Lawrence City Commissioners should think about that before they put into effect a ban that will be not only inefficient, but probably make more people unhappy than it will make happy. - Wiley is a Silver Lake junior in journalism and geography.

Wyndal Gordon right, walk away from a media briefing Wednesday in Rockville, Md. Jury selection for the murder trial continued for a third day. Muhammad is on trial for six murders carried out in Maryland during October 2002. BY STEPHEN MANNING THE ASSOCIATED PRESS ROCKVILLE, Md. — A prosecutor displayed graphic photos of blood-splattered scenes showing where six people in the Washington area were gunned down as convicted sniper John Allen Muhammad began his second murder trial Thursday. "They lined up innocent victims in their crosshairs and fired, destroying lives," prosecutor Katherine Winfree said during opening statements in a Montgomery County courthouse. Muhammad and accomplice Lee Boyd Malvo were linked to 10 slayings and three woundings in Maryland, Virginia, and the District of Columbia. They also were tied to shootings in Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana and Washington. Muhammad, 45, has been sentenced to death for a Virginia sniper killing and Malvo, 21, faces life in prison. In the Maryland trial, Muhammad is charged with shooting six people in Montgomery County, the mostly affluent county in the Washington suburbs where the three-week sniper spree in October 2002 began and ended. Malvo also faces trial for the same six murders, but it is likely he will plead guilty and testify against Muhammad. Neither faces the death penalty in Maryland. Winfree described in detail each of the six shootings and showed grisly photos of each crime scene and victim. She held up the Bushmaster rifle used in the crimes and showed photos demonstrating how the car driven by the two was modified to serve as a firing platform. Muhammad, who is serving as his own attorney, sat at the defense table and stared at the prosecutor or looked at the photos of his victims on courtroom monitors. Occasionally, he whispered to one of the court-appointed standby attorneys sitting beside him. A jury of seven women and five men was picked earlier Thursday from a pool of about 300. Most in the initial pool said they already believed Muhammad was guilty or played a part in the killings. in the kitchens. Many cited the pervasive fear that enveloped the Washington area as people were shot at random at gas stations, parking lots and even a school. People recalled keeping their children inside, putting off filling their gas tanks and avoiding public places. They said it would be difficult to ignore those feelings and judge Muhammad impartially. Muhammad objected to most prospective jurors, saying he didn't think they could be fair. His attorneys said the entire pool should be discarded because they already had opinions about Muhammad's guilt. Some of the 12 people and four alternates chosen for the jury lived in the county at the time of the shootings. But they said they would be able to put aside their feelings about the case and judge the evidence impartially. NATION Veto threatens provisions to war and hurricane aid bill BY ANDREW TAYLOR THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — The Senate passed a $109 billion bill Thursday to pay for the war in Iraq and hurricane aid for the Gulf Coast, but a veto threat imperils many provisions added by lawmakers. The bill has grown to about $14 billion more than President Bush said he was willing to accept, and difficult House-Senate talks loom over how to cut it back to his request. The White House made clear within minutes of the vote that Bush has not backing down. "He calls on Congress to fund our troops and fund the rebuilding efforts along the Gulf Coast, and then hold the line on spending elsewhere. That means don't put unnecessary spending into this emergency legislation," said White House press secretary Scott McClellan. "The president has made it very clear. He would veto legislation that goes above and beyond what he called for." The measure passed with a 78-20 vote. It contains $65.7 billion for war operations and $28.8 billion for hurricane relief, including grants to states to build and repair housing and $3.9 billion for levees and flood control projects in Louisiana. Bush's veto threat puts at risk items not requested by the president, such as $4 billion in farm disaster aid, $1 billion in state grants and $1.1 billion in aid to the Gulf Coast seafood industry. House leaders promise to take a hard line in upcoming talks with the Senate. "Unfortunately, there are some here in Washington trying to load that bill up with unnecessary spending," Bush said Wednesday. "This bill is for emergency spending, and it should be limited to emergency measures." "The House will not take up an emergency supplemental spending bill for Katrina and the war in Iraq that spends one dollar more than what the president asks for. Period," said House Majority Leader John Boehner, R-Ohio. David Vitter, R-La., obtained another $200 million in New Orleans-area flood control projects Thursday, bringing the total for such efforts to $3.9 billion. The addition was financed by cuts to the Federal Emergency Management Agency's disaster fund. Such vows imperil numerous Senate add-ons, including $648 million for port security, $1.9 billion to secure U.S. borders and waters and efforts to boost the budget for New Orleans flood control projects. The White House will try to fight off possible attempts by lawmakers to cut further into a $67.6 billion request for military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan in their search for money The upcoming House-Senate negotiations will test the determination and political strength of Gulf Coast Republicans, including the chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee, Sen. Thad Cochran of Mississippi. They will fight for home-state projects and priorities despite opposition from House and Senate GOP leaders and the White House. ior hurricane relief and border protection. During almost two weeks before the full Senate, the bill grew by more than $2 billion despite a toughly worded veto threat made on the first day of debate. Bush said he would veto any bill exceeding his $92.2 billion request for the war and hurricane relief plus an additional $2.3 billion to prepare for a possible bird flu pandemic. Bush's veto threat emboldened conservatives such as Sens, John McCain, R-Ariz., and Tom Coburn, R-Okla. They undertook battles against homestate projects inserted by senior senators such as Cochran and Richard Shelby, R-Ala.

BY RYAN SCHNEIDER rschneider@kansan.com KANSAN SENIOR SPORTWRITER Coach Tracy Bunge will say goodbye to one of the most accomplished classes in Kansas softball history this weekend. Seniors Nettie Fierros, Destiny Frankenstein, Ashley Goodrich, Jessica Moppin, Serena Settlemier and Heather Stanley will play their final game at Arrocha Ballpark on Saturday and Sunday. Frankenstein said that despite the usual emotions associated with Senior Day, she would resist the urge to cry. "I'm excited, but at the same time, I'm a little bit sad," Frankenstein said. "We'll all of our families here and all of us haven't had all of our families here since our first game.? In their four years at Kansas, the seniors have compiled 118 victories, one tie and 98 losses, including a trip to the NCAA Regionalals in 2005. Here's a look at the six seniors on the softball team this season: Nettie Fierros Fierros, an Avondale, Ariz. native, has started in left field in all but four Big 12 Conference games this season. She's batting .202 on the season, which includes a 2-for-3 performance against Oklahoma last weekend. Fierros made the move to left field this year after spending the last three years at third base. She's been called on to pinch hit in numerous situations this season. Destinv Frankonstein Frankenstein is finishing her fourth straight year at shortstop for Kansas. The Broken Arrow, Okla., native continues to move up the career list in several categories. She currently ranks second in all-time home runs, with 51 for her career. Frankenstein also ranks fourth with 47 stolen bases. Last season, Frankenstein had one of the best season's in program history. She hit .344 and set a new single-season record with 14 home runs. Frankenstein was named to the First Team All-Region by the National Fastpitch Coaches' Association and was first team All-Big 12. SEE SENIORS ON PAGE 4B 7 'Hawks to play for big finish in Big 12 BY MARK DENT mdent@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER Junior first baseman Nicole Washburn catches the ball before Wichita State sophomore Katie McGeeney can make it on base Wednesday night. This weekend the Jayhawks take on the Iowa State Cyclones. Sunday is senior day. Too bad man's best friend doesn't pick teams for the NCAA Regionals. During Saturday's softball game against Iowa State, dogs are welcomed to get a firsthand look at Kansas' last opportunity to move up in the Big 12 standings and improve its NCAA Regional chances. The game is part of a "Bark in the Park" promotion, where dogs get in for a donation to the Lawrence Humane Society or a various pet items like toys or cat litter. STANDINGS "These games are extremely important," Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said. The Jayhawks (28-24, 6-10 Big 12) are currently in seventh place in the conference, and they will face the eighth place Cyclones (23-25, 5-11) for a two-game series. The following are scenarios that will determine Kansas' final position in the Big 12 Conference standings. Kansas has two games left against Iowa State this weekend to finish out the regular season. If Kansas defeats Iowa State in both games it has a the possibility of moving up into sixth place ahead of Missouri or tying with them. For Kansas to finish in seventh place: Missouri wins both Nebraska games. ror Kansas to finish: in a sixth-place tie: Win both games and have Missouri split its series, OR: Split its series and have Missouri lose both games. For Kansas to finish in eighth place: Lose both games against Iowa State. For Kansas to finish in sixth Place: Win both Iowa State games and have Missouri lose both games against Nebraska. Randall Sanders/KANSAN On the other end of the spectrum, Kansas could fall as far as eighth place if it is unable In the event of a tie with the Tigers, the first tiebreaker is the head-to-head match-up, but the teams split their two-game series this year. Both teams won by four runs, so the second tiebreaker would also not determine the winner. The third tiebreaker is scoring margin of all Big 12 games. The Jayhawks would win this tiebreaker and thus sixth place in the Big 12, because they have the advantage in this category.

The two could be a steep test for Kansas, which has been in a prolonged hitting slump. Even in their victory against Wichita State on Wednesday, the Jayhawks managed only one hit. The Tigers have a 7-9 conference record and play on the road against the Nebraska Cornhuskers this weekend. A sixth-place finish is crucial for Kansas. The top-six teams in the Big 12 receive a bye in the Big 12 Tournament, which starts Wednesday. Adding even more importance to this weekend's series is that Sunday will be Senior Day for six Kansas players, including Serena Settlemier. To put themselves into position for an NCAA berth and sixth place finish, the Jayhawks must be able to hit their way past two of the Big 12's top pitch The NCAA will also take a closer look at selecting Kansas if it finishes in the top six of the conference. While eight teams were selected for NCAA Regionals from the Big 12, the conference had the second best conference RPI in the nation last year. This year, the Big 12 is fourth. "I'm excited, but it's a lot of pressure with my family coming to watch," the pitcher/designated player said. "I'd like to perform well." Edited by John Jordan Kansas faces test against defending national champs BY ALISSA BAUER abauer@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Three hundred and sixty seven days ago, Kansas clinched the series victory against the then No.2 team in the country, Texas. Three hundred and seventeen days ago, Texas won the College World Series The Jayhawks (33-18, 10-11) are hoping to prove they can steal a series from Texas again this season as they head to Austin for a three-game set against the No. 7 Longhorns (35-15, 16-4), starting tonight at 6:15. "Any team can beat any team on any given day," Kansas sophomore third baseman Erik Morrison said. "You've got to go in there and give it your all, and the better team is going to come out with the victory." Although Kansas took two of three games from the eventual National Champions in 2005, both teams underwent some changes in the off-season. While most of the Jayhawk juniors returned for their senior season, a large portion of the Longhorns' veteran lineup did not. Morrison said that has led to speculation in the press that Kansas might be slightly stronger than the team that defeated Texas last season, while the Longhorns may be less talented. Morrison said that the team needed to focus on the games this weekend rather than what was being said in the newspapers. Coach Ritch Price also shook off the notion that Kansas was the stronger team, and instead showed great respect for the powerhouse Texas baseball program and its accomplishments. "Every team in America takes a step back after they win a National Championship," Price said. "Now, I still think they're to make the College World Series."

DOWN THE HALF NBA can't play by the rules TIM HALL thall@kansan.com TAMINO BARRERA The NBA gets exciting when the playoffs roll around. Even though half of the league plays in the postseason and the first round series have been lengthened to best-of-seven, the intensity level is heightened. I am an NBA fan, don't get me wrong. I grew up going to Washington Bullets games at the old Capital Centre. I even stuck with them when they stupidly changed their name to the Wizards. And when I moved out west to the great state of Utah in 2001, I accepted Stockton, Malone and the Jazz into my heart. But sometimes fans like myself get sick, tired and fed up with some things. For example, if Lebron James makes one more game-winning shot after a blatant traveling violation, I will no longer watch NBA. I will instead put my love 100 percent toward real basketball, much like what is played in Allen Fieldhouse. The call in game three of the Wizards-Cavaliers game was obvious. There was no arguing that Lebron got away with two travels in the final minute of play. The second one — a goahead layup with six seconds left — was a knife in the back of the Wizards. I have never seen an easier call to make. But somehow, referees Greg Willard, Monty McCutchen, and Ron Garrisson missed it. College basketball is basketball how James Naismith meant the game to be played. People in this town can appreciate that because they know KU basketball above anything else. And that's not a bad thing. The college game is real basketball. The rules are enforced. You don't see players take six steps without dribbling. You don't see players in the lane four seconds before a free-throw leaves the shooter's hand. This is something that's never going to change in NBA basketball, and its why I will never follow it as closely as KU basketball. The poor Wizards lost their opportunity to take a 2-1 series lead when they lost that game, 97-96. Then during game five Wednesday night, Lebron did it again. This time, Lebron made it from the baseline corner all the way to the rim in only three dribbles. Halfway to the basket he palmed the ball, put it back on the floor, and went up to lay in the winner with less than a second remaining. His hand was under the basketball for a full second, carrying it just long enough to give him the opportunity to continue the drive. The ball went in and the Cavs won 121-120. Poor Wizards. I know the Wizards played terrible defense and I know LeBron is a superstar, but is it so much to ask to call the game by the rulebook? I have to wait until November for college hoops to roll back around. Until then all we have is NBA playoffs, which is one shade below Slamball. Maybe Bernie Fryer, Joe Forte, and Mark Wunderlich forgot about the palming rule. LeBron, I know you're great, but if you get a last-second shot in tonight's game six at Washington, do a Wiz fan a favor and put up a jumper.

Just down the street from Berlin's Olympic Stadium, which hosts the final, stands the city's largest brothel, Artemis, established in September with an eye on capitalizing on the influx of World Cup visitors. BY DAVID CRARY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The German government, while defending its policy of legalized prostitution, emphatically denies that it condones human trafficking and said it had intensified efforts to combat it. It also denied claims by some critics that it was subsidizing construction of new brothels. coroner Rep. Christopher Smith, (R-New Jersey) remains skeptical. He urged Germany to recriminate prostitution and suggested that it should be reclassified as an "egrigious violator" of human trafficking unless tougher steps are taken before the World Cup starts on June 9. NEW YORK — The expected World Cup boom for Germany's sex industry has ignited a trans-Atlantic tiff over prosititution, with a U.S. congressman and other anti-trafficking advocates contending Thursday that thousands of foreign women will be forced into sex work during the four-week tournament. Juliette Engel of the Angel Coalition, in her written testimony, said the German government had chosen "to act as an official pimp for the 2006 World Cup — anticipating millions of dollars in revenues from the exploitation of women's bodies and souls by tens of thousands of male football fans notorious for their drunkenness and violence." Smith, chairman of the House subcommittee on global human rights, convened a hearing in Washington titled "Germany's World Cup Brothels." Witnesses included representatives from Amnesty International, the International Organization for Migration, and the Angel Coalition, an anti-trafficking women's group in Russia. Engel, who said Russian and Eastern European women were Germany's main trafficking victims, described the World Cup as "a human rights disaster in the making." entrepreneurs have made no secret of their expectation of a boom as hundreds of thousands of visitors arrive for the World Cup. At the four-story, 40-bedroom Artemis brothel which opened in Berlin last fall, manager Egbert Krumeich predicted business — normally 130 clients a day — could double or triple during the 32-nation tournament. Germany's sex-industry Prostitution is legal in Germany, with about 400,000 registered sex workers who pay taxes and receive social benefits. However, the government said forced prostitution was not tolerated and it denies Smith's claim that it was helping build brothels. The German Embassy in Washington said German federal officials were working closely with regional authorities and non government organizations to combat trafficking and forced prostitution, especially in the 12 World Cup host cities.

Evan Kafarakis Running back not happy and never will be BY DOUG TUCKER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS KANSAS CITY, Mo. — There's one thing the young, talented, rich and famous Larry Johnson wants everybody to understand — he is not happy. Not after going to the Pro Bowl. Not after rushing for a Kansas City Chiefs record 1,750 yards and bursting into stardom. Not after having fans approach him on the streets of New York and Las Vegas and tell him how great he is. Not even after hobbling with celebrities as a newly minted celebrity himself. "No, I'm never happy," the muscular running back said Thursday. thursday. "When I feel like I'm successful in my own right, I will never be happy with anything, period. I haven't started one full season yet. I haven't gotten this team to a Super Bowl. As far as my career, it's still starting off late, I feel. So I can't overall be happy about where I'm at right now, 'cause like I said, I feel like I'm still playing catch-up." One thing the fourth-year Penn State product has caught up with is a job as a starter. When three-time Pro Bowler Priest Holmes went out last season with neck trauma, the sullen backup finally got the chance he'd always said he deserved. And man, did his critics eat their words. He started nine games and went for more than 100 yards each time, and more than 200 twice. His 1,627 yards from scrimmage in games played on or after Nov. 1 were the most in NFL history. Even if Holmes decides to come back and resume his career, new head coach Herman Edwards has assured Johnson that he, not Holmes, will go into camp as the starter. That much does make him happy. So does having Edwards as his head coach instead of the retired Dick Vermeil. He and Vermell clashed repeatedly dur ing his first three years after being taken in the first round in 2003. But now he says he has a head coach who's in his corner, for the first time since he was a high school senior. Holmes, as mysterious as always, has sent word he will not participate in the Chiefs' mandatory minicamp May 19-21 because he still does not have medical clearance. Team president Carl Peterson has said that he still expects Holmes to return. Holmes was one of the NFL's top running backs when Johnson was drafted in 2003. Nevertheless, Johnson insists he's still bitter that he did not step right in as the starter. Cheesecake $0.99 MASS.

Now a junior, Stubbs roams center field for Texas, robbing opposing batters of hits, and carrying the Longhorn offense, wreaking havoc on opposing pitchers. Drew Stubbs was a wanted man coming out of high school. Any major university would have made room on its roster for Stubbs, and the Houston Astros drafted him in the third round of the 2003 Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft. Stubbs has started all of Texas' 48 games this season and leads the team in six offensive categories including home runs and stolen bases, but his most cherished accomplishment in his baseball career came last season when he and the Longhorns won the College World Series. "I wanted to go to school the whole time and the only thing that was going to keep me out of it was a large amount of money." Stubbs said. Stubbs found himself face-toface with a decision most baseball players only dream of having to make. As a result, Texas has come into every game this season with a bulls-eye on its chest, something Stubbs said initially caught the team by surprise. Not only has Texas been a target for each of its opponents, but it also lost seven players - who were either eligible to return this season or were incoming recruits - to the draft. The team suffered early. By March 4, the Longhorns were 9-8.

Now a junior, Stubbs roams center field for Texas, robbing opposing batters of hits, and carrying the Longhorn offense, wreaking havoc on opposing pitchers. losses in 2005 until April 27. As might be expected from a perennial power, Texas has turned things around, going 24-7 since. Texas coach Augie Garrido said the turnaround has been a team effort, but Stubbs, along with the other upperclassmen, has led the team by example. "No one person can get it done, but he's played his part by his performances and the way he's battled and the ways he's accepted overcoming his adversities during a game and during the season and the way he's conducted himself on and off the field." Garrido said. This weekend, Kansas will travel to Austin to face No. 7 Texas. The Jayhawks' main objective will be to win at least one game in the series to solidify their postseason chances. Kansas split four games with Texas last season, but Stubbs dominated Kansas pitching. He went 7-for-15 with four runs, three RBI and a stolen base. Kansas coach Ritch Price knows his team will have to do a better job of containing Stubbs to have similar success against the Longhorns in Austin. "He's as physically talented as anybody I've ever coached against." Price said. "Obviously we're going to try to be careful with him and try to get in position where hopefully he won't hurt us." When this weekend's series is completed, it will be four weeks until Texas begins its championship defense. Stubbs may already have one championship ring and this Texas team may not be as dominant as last season's, but that hasn't lowered Stubbs' expectations. "I've kind of been spoiled. I've been to Omaha both years that I've been here, so I'm looking for nothing less than going back and hopefully winning the championship again," Stubbs said. "Anything less than that would be a disappointment for me." If Stubbs and Texas are still in the hunt for another championship during the NCAA Super Regionals, Stubbs may find out that he is, again, a wanted man in the professional ranks. Sandwiched in the middle of the NCAA tournament schedule is the 2006 MLB First-Year Player Draft. With the numbers Stubbs has put up in college, there's no reason to think he won't be drafted higher this year than he was coming out of high school. Stubbs is candid in his plans for next season if he is a high draft pick. "At this point in my career, I'm looking to sign a contract and begin my pro career after this year," Stubbs said. "It's not a 100-percent certainty, but it's something that I'd like to do and I think everybody around here understands that." Edited by Timon Veach A close call with the wall DHL M.

The White Sox won, 4-1. TENNIS Young team disappointed with tournament rejection BY ANTONIO MENDOZA amendoza@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER The Kansas tennis team won't be making an appearance in the ment in Stanford, Calif. out of 33 teams, Kansas was not chosen to compete. "It was a dis- appointment," s o p h o m e Stephanie Smith said. "It was one Holt of our goals at the beginning of the season, but we have a young team and we're just going to keep looking to make improvements and hopefully we can make it next year." This year's team made improvements from previous seasons, though Kansas ended the regular season with an overall record of 14-11, and a conference record of 5-8. The team had its best season since coach Amy Hall-Holt arrived for the 2003-2004 season. This is also the best record the team has had since the 2002 season, when the team had an overall record of 16-6. The 11 victories that the team obtained this season was more than the previous two seasons combined. "We thought it was an improvement," sophomore Lauren Hommell said. "I thought we could have done better." Kansas also placed two of its members on the All Big 12 singles team Monday. Freshman Ksenia Bukina, who had a regular season record of 10-13 and occupied the No. 1 spot on the team, was one of two members to make the Big 12 team. Sophomore Liza Avdeveva was the other player to be named to the team. Avdeveva held the No. 2 spot on the team all season and had a regular season record of 18-7, including a team-high 11-game winning streak. Bukina and Avdeeva also made it to the All Big 12 doubles team. The two had an overall record of 12-6 and a Big 12 record of 8-3. Avdeeva and Bukina are the first two players on the team to be placed on the All Big 12 team since the 2003 season, and they are the first doubles team to be placed on the All Big 12 team since the 2001 season. The team also placed three players on the Academic All Big 12 team this season: Avdeeva, Skoda and Smith. To be placed on the academic team, a player must have a GPA of at least 3.20. "It's an honor to be named on the all academic team," Smith said. — Edited by Jodi Ann Holopirek Join us at the Yacht Club for our New Specials!

Yacht Club SPORTS BAR & GRILL 856-8188·6th & Wisconsin 4B THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN SPORTS FRIDAY, MAY 5, 2006 Seniors CONTINUED FROM PAGE 11 Ashley Goodrich Goodrich, a Kewanee, Ill., native, highlighted her senior campaign with career games against UMKC earlier in the season. She went 4-for-4 from the plate, knocked in seven RBI and hit two home runs in the double-header against the Kangaroos. The right fielder is also hitting a career best .262 from the plate this season. Goodrich recorded career bests in doubles, RBI and slugging percentage. Jessica Moppin The Olathe native is closing out her fourth consecutive year as a second base starter for the Jayhawks. Moppin ranks second on the team, batting 301 this season. She ranks third on Kansas' all-time home runs list with 28 on the season. Last season, Moppin established career highs in hits, doubles, RBI and overall batting average. She was also named to the All-Big 12 first team. Simply put, Settlemier is having one of the best offensive and pitching seasons in Kansas softball history. The Kelso, Wash., native knocked in her 21st run of the season Wednesday against Wichita State. Her 21 home runs are a new single-season record and also make her the Kansas career home run leader with 43. Six of those home runs were grand slams. Settlemier is also one RBI away from typing the career RBI mark. At the plate, she leads the team, batting 340 on the season, ranking her Serena Settlemier in the Top 15 of the Big 12. On the mound, Settlemier ranks third in the Big 12 with a 1.27 ERA and strikes out an average of nearly seven opponents per game. She's also set a new career high with 15 victories. In her last 25.66 innings, Settlemier has only given up two earned runs. Heather Stanley Stanley, a Houston native, was Kansas' only returning starter in the outfield. She's started all but three Big 12 games this season, batting .210 this year. Stanley established new career highs in doubles and triples this season. She had one of her best outings of the season against UMKC, going 2-for-5 from the plate, with two triples and two RBI. — Edited by Jodi Ann Holopirek The two also have the exact same team batting average, at .292. Kansas has tallied 51 more hits, but has three more games under its belt than Texas. Kansas also has a 19 more home runs as a team, but with 34 more strikeouts. Senior infielder Jared Schweitzer led last year's attack on Texas. A .316 hitter lifetime against the Longhorns, Schweitzer broke the Kansas hit- Test CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B Both teams enter the series with the same number of victories, 33. Texas graced all three of the primary collegiate baseball polls: Baseball America (7), Collegiate Baseball (7) and the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association (8). Kansas, on the other hand, dropped out of the latter poll, the only one in which it was ranked, after last week's series loss to Oklahoma at home. PROBABLE STARTERS streak record during the Texas series last season. A year later, Schweitzer is still hot with the bat. He leads the team with a 358 batting average. Texas, as equally imposing an opponent as Oklahoma, has mastered the long ball and has solid pitching, but is similar again to Kansas in the field. The Longhorns are the only Big 12 Friday: Sc. RHP Ricky Fairchild (5-5, 5.71) vs. Jr. RHP Kyle McCulloch (7- 5.24, 7-85) Saturday: Fr. LH Nick Czyz (3-1, 4.17) vs. Soph. RHP Adrian Alaniz (5-2, 4.36) Sunday: Sunday: Sr. RHP Kodikai Quick (8-3, 3.22) vs. Fr. LHP Riley Boening (3-1, 5-40) "We've been on the road all year preparing for this weekend," Price said. "I think our players will rise to the occasion and if we get good starting pitching, we've got a really good chance." So while Price tries to restore Land's confidence in a few midweek games, the coach puts his faith in the freshman team with more errors (65) than Kansas (63). — Edited by Timon Veach But this weekend's matchup is more about what happens on the mound than anything else. Making his Big 12 debut as a starter, freshman left Nick Czyz will take the mound tomorrow afternoon, replacing junior left-hander Sean Land for the weekend. Price said he was concerned with Land's lack of competitiveness and the negative body language he put forth when he got in trouble against Oklahoma last Saturday. jayplay Giveaway music freebies MATISYAHU YOUTH Enter to win!

KANSAS CITY CHIEFS Herman Edwards still counting on Priest Holmes THE ASSOCIATED PRESS KANSAS CITY, Mo. — New Kansas City Chiefs coach Herman Edwards is counting Priest Holmes in for next season, despite counting him out for minicamp. Edwards told The Kansas City Star on Wednesday that the Chiefs' three-time Pro Bowl running back will not be with the team when it begins offseason practices in two weeks because he has not been medically cleared. "I told him, 'Hey, when you get cleared, when you get ready in your mind to get back here, Holmes, 32, has been recovering from a helmet-to-helmet collision with the Chargers' Shawne Merriman during a midseason game in San Diego. He has been seeing a spinal specialist, Robert Watkins, and has been working out at his home in San Antonio during the offseason. you need to be back here,"" Edwards said. "So there's no pressure on him by our people, by us, at all." Holmes has remained mum about his chances to return next season. He was put on injured reserve in November and has been undergoing a battery of neurological tests and evaluations since. General manager Carl Peterson said before the NFL draft that if Kansas City had to play a game, Holmes would not be cleared. "But we don't have to start today," he said, adding that doctors will evaluate Holmes again soon. "I haven't really called (Priest) in a while, since he hasn't been cleared," Edwards said. "I would assume he'll probably show up sometime. something. "People can interpret what they want. Until you hear it from Priest Holmes that he's not going to play, in my mind, he's playing." If Holmes does return, it will be as a backup to emerging star Larry Johnson. After toiling behind Holmes for two years, Johnson rushed for more than 100 yards in each of his nine starts last season, racking up 1,750 yards and scoring 20 touchdowns. It was enough that one of Edwards' first moves with the Chiefs was to name Johnson the starting running back entering fall camp. Both running backs will have a veteran offensive line to run behind. Right guard Will Shields and left tackle Willie Roaf, both 12-time Pro Bowlers who each tooyed with retirement, have decided to return for one more run. "I thought about (retiring)," Roaf said. "I talked to Will and some of the guys. Then last year we finished so strong at the end of the year. It was great seeing Will come back. That helped." Kentucky Derby favorite up for sale days before the big race BY RICHARD ROSENBLATT THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Lawyer Ron was getting a sponge bath, the early morning sunlight glistening off his wet, chestnut coat. On the other side of the barn, the man he is named after was closing a deal to sell the colt, one of the Kentucky Derby favorites. Business as usual for the four-legged Lawyer Ron. Business as usual for the two-legged version, Ron Bamberger. As executor for the estate of Jim Hines, which owns Lawyer Ron, Bamberger sold an interest in the colt Thursday. The sale comes two days before Lawyer Ron attempts to win the one race Hines longed to compete in. Asked if he thought the horse knew what was up, trainer Bob Holthus said, "He don't know anything about it." Then added, "And I'm not going to tell him, either." As if the tale of Lawyer Ron wasn't already fraught with numerous story lines, his 71-year-old trainer was fighting the flu this week, a year after being hospitalized with congestive heart failure. On Saturday, Holthus will take his best shot at winning with a pupil on a six-race winning tear. The Arkansas Derby winner is the 4-1 co-second favorite in “This is probably the best chance I have ever had or ever will have,” Holthus said, “so it would be a great thrill fulfilling what has been a long career.” a packed field of 20 three-year-olds. Holthus' fifth and most talented Derby horse came to him courtesy of Hines, a wealthy businessman who owned hundreds of thoroughbreds when he died Feb. 21 of an apparent accidental drowning in the indoor swimming pool at his home. He was 69. Arkansas Derby. Hines' death came four days before jockey John McKee guided Lawyer Ron to victory in the Southwest Stakes at Oaklawn Park, which was followed by wins in the Rebel Stakes and the Now there are more folks with a piece of Lawyer Ron, a son of Langfuhr who has earned $1,220,008 from seven victories in 14 starts. He's 7-for-7 on dirt tracks; 0-for-7 on turf and Polytrack. Bamberger would not give details, but said an "interest" in Lawyer Ron had been sold to Audrey Haisfield, who owns Stonewall Stallions near Sailles, Ky. Part of the deal calls for Lawyer Ron to run in the Derby in the blue and white silks of Hines Farm. The sale of a Derby-bound horse is far from unprecedented, but it's rare when one of the favorites is involved so close to the race date. In 2002, War Emblem was purchased for $900,000 less than four weeks before the Derby, and then won the race at 21 odds for trainer Bob Baffert. "They're all worth more at this moment then ever," Baffert said. "Saturday at 6:10 p.m., most of these horses are going to be a lot less." Through it all, Holthus has persevered. He's had plenty of practice. In 1952, when Hill Gail was winning the Derby, an 18-year-old from Nebraska took out his trainer's license. next winter. He hasn't left, winning 11 training titles along the way, and he's still going strong: This will be his third straight Derby starter. Holthus, the son of a trainer, won his first race that year with a filly named Colleen, and showed up at Oaklawn Park the Last year, Greater Good was 13th; the year before Pro Prado finished 13th, too. "The last two years I had 30-1 shots and people came by to be nice." Holthus said. This week, his barn is crowded every morning with visitors, from the media to the hundreds of fans allowed to wander the Churchill Downs backstretch. Even O.J. Simpson made the rounds Thursday. His pick? Lawyer Ron. "I love lawyers, I know all about lawyers," he said, smiling.

"Womyn Take Back the Night" is an event when both men and women come together to discuss and protest violence against women. The protestors want a safe non-violent community in Lawrence for both genders. EMPOWERING PEOPLE TO TAKE BACK THE NIGHT Marchers take back the night Mangan True/KANSAN WWW.KANSAN.COM BY MIKE MOSTAFFA mmostaffa@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER A group of KU students and Lawrence residents spent Friday discussing and protesting violence against women. A crowd gathered at Buford M. Watson Train Park, between Sixth and Eighth streets and Kentucky Street, for "Womyn Take Back the Night," an event sponsored by Women's Transitional Care Services and the GaDuGi SafeCenter. Jes Cook, Topeka senior, has been involved with the event since her freshman year. Cook said the event was a way for people to get together to create a forum for both men and women to speak about violence against women. "Our main focus is to break the silence." Cook said. One way participants spoke out was in the form of creating T-shirts for the event. Hundreds of homemade T-shirts filled with symbolic and inspirational messages were hung from a clothesline. Some T-shirts were made by survivors of domestic abuse while others were in memory of deceased friends and family. "The shirts make a visual statement that Lawrence as a community does not support violence against anybody, particularly women," Cook said.

Stacie Schroeder, who helped coordinate the event for the American Cancer Society, said the ultimate for the night Relay For Life is an American Cancer Society fundraiser that raises awareness and money for cancer research. It's better than just donating money because everyone is out here having a good time with all the events and everyone gets involved to help out." Bill Bourgeois KU student was to raise money for four general areas of cancer research: advocacy, research, education and patient services. Schroeder said the 12-hour event was a metaphor for fighting against cancer. People would experience dark moments in their fight, but they also would see the light if they continued to fight.

FLY HIGH SWING LOW Bipolar disorder triggers life-threatening behaviors BY RACHEL PARKER rparker@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Kindra Hanke's heart rate shot up as the doors opened to the elevator in Fraser Hall. She rushed in and anxiously jabbed the button for the 8th floor. A spurt of excitement pulsed through her veins as she thought to herself, "What a rush it will be to soar off the building and glide through the air!" When she reached the door to the roof, it was locked, and her excitement turned to deep disappointment. By that time, her roommate had raced up and found her, dampening any chances for a flight that day. Hanke's failed attempt at a fatal flight is congruent with bipolar disorder, a psychiatric disorder of which an estimated 300 KU students suffer. Once known as manic-depressive, bipolar disorder is most commonly diagnosed in college-aged people. Those who have it experience drastic mood swings that can make them think they can fly sky-high and then sink them into dark depressions, putting them at a higher risk of committing suicide than any other psychiatric disorder. Those who have it often struggle to maintain relationships, perform well at work and in school and they often use effective mood-stabilizing drugs to control their roller coaster of emotions. Hanke's best friends these days are her two roommates at home in Overland Park: her mother and her French bulldog. Monty. She understands why her friends have tapered off. Human Impact "Dealing with someone that's not the same everyday is probably difficult," she said, pointing out that her irritability makes most of her relationships fall apart.

Violence continues; more than 40 killed BAGHDAD, Iraq — Car bombs killed at least 16 people and injured dozens Sunday in Baghdad and a Shite holy city, casting doubt on U.S. hopes that formation of a new government alone would provide a quick end to the country's violence. WORLD At least 26 others were killed or found dead Sunday, including a U.S. Marine mortally wounded in the insurgent bastion of Anbar province in western Iraq, police and the U.S. military said. Some of the victims appeared to have been abducted and killed by sectarian "death squads" that target members of rival religious communities. The dead included three brothers whose charred bodies were found before dawn in Baghdad's Dora district, a mixed Sunni-Shiite area and one of the city's most violent. The deadliest single attack occurred at midmorning when a suicide driver detonated his vehicle near an Iraqi army patrol leaving its base in the Sunni Arab neighborhood of Azamiyah, killing 10 people and injuring 15, most of them Iraqi soldiers, police Lt. Col. Falah al-Mohammedawi said. A half-hour earlier, a car bomb exploded near the Baghdad offices of the state-run al-Sabah newspaper, killing an employee, police Lt. Ahmed Mohammed Ali said. Officials believed the target was a police patrol that passed by shortly before the blast.

Suicide Risk Withdrawal from activities, family and friends can accelerate suicidal thoughts. Bipolar disorder patients have a 20 to 25 percent increased risk of committing suicide, said William McKnelly, Jr., professor and psychiatrist at the University of Kansas Medical Center, who has specialized in treating the disorder for more than 50 years. David Holmes, professor of psychology, said the rate for suicide among bipolar patients was higher than any other psychiatric disorder. He said suicidal thoughts and attempts occurred most during rapid cycling when an individual was switching from manic and depressive episodes. During manic episodes, individuals might be more likely to commit suicide because they are impulsive, he said. Hanke has attempted suicide twice before while struggling with her disorder. At 16, she held a gun to her head and pulled the trigger, but failed because she forgot to chamber another round. During a second attempt at 20, she swallowed two bottles of Tylenol caplets. Her roommate found her and brought her to the hospital where was treated with a formulation called Muconyst, an antidote for Acetaminophen poisoning, which she said tasted and smelled like rotten eggs. Symptoms Two alternating, broad states are associated with bipolar disorder: wild mania and deep depression. They are referred to as highs and lows, and they must have underlying, more specific symptoms to be diagnosed. Want more information about bipolar disorder? Check out these organizations to assist you in your search; Mania, according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-Fourth Edition, is classified as having a euphoric mood, along with three or more other major manic symptoms for one week. Major manic symptoms can include: irritability, less need for sleep, inflated self-esteem or grandiosity, delusions and impulsiveness.

Her symptoms last at least four consecutive days, and individuals with alternating episodes of hypomania and severe depression are diagnosed Niswonger recalled one manic situation when she decided she had to do something drastic about her messy home. Instead of doing the laundry or picking up around the house, she irrationally decided the kitchen cabinets needed a full makeover. She got out a drill and took off all the cabinet doors, only to become bored with the project after an hour. She said her kitchen cabinets were doorless for more than a year, until family helped finish the project. Hanke said that during her highs, she slept two to three hours a night, compared to the 16 she sleeps during her depressive state. She said she engaged in "risky" behaviors, like speeding through red stop lights. with Bipolar II Disorder. Individuals with bipolar can be deeply depressed for two weeks or more. They suffer from a decreased interest in pleasure, fatigue, feelings of guilt and worthlessness and diminished a ability to concentrate. While Niswonger suffers from rapid cycles of depression and mania that could last for an hour and switch, Hanke's cycles are much longer. She said she tended to be depressed most of the time, but she had experienced three to five manic high cycles. Niswonger has what her physicians call rapid cycles; cycling that occurs at least four times each one year. McKnelly said the problem with diagnosing any form of the disorder was the fact that the depression, not mania or highs, was often the only symptom complained about. Often the person is diagnosed first as having depression unless a physician sees a patient with different mood alterations including manic symptoms. Psychotic symptoms, like those found in individuals with schizophrenia, are also common in those with bipolar disorder. Hanke's belief that she could fly was part of a delusion, or irrational belief, that accompanied her thought disruptions. Hanke said she once believed that energy beams in the air were amplified by cell phones, so she went through a period of time when she wouldn't talk to people with cell phones. A hallucination, or the sense of seeing or hearing something that doesn't exist, is another psychotic symptom associated with the disorder. Niswonger said she had periodically heard voices since she was 11 years old. Diagnosis "No one goes to the dentist because their teeth feel too good," he explained.

PRESIDENT NEWS MONDAY, MAY 8, 2006 4A THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A Hanke said she planned to stay an extra year at the University to be involved with a research project with Holmes, who will focus on the diagnosing criteria, specifically the extent to which relatively few symptoms might disrupt a lifestyle, as opposed to the amount of symptoms present. David Neffsinger/KANSAN Not only is bipolar difficult to diagnose based on symptoms, but it also is often difficult to identify where symptoms are coming from, Keeler said. Patients might have other disorders, such as substance abuse, combined with bipolar. She said it was hard to determine if one caused the other or if yet a third variable was involved. Physicians are often at fault and misdiagnose the disorder because they do not ask the patient the right questions, Holmes said. Hanke said more were diagnosed as having bipolar than should be. Holmes said that he, too, worried that physicians were over-diagnosing, but it might be that the prevalence of the disorder was just surfacing. Background Bipolar disorder affects a little more than 1 percent of the U.S. adult population — about 2 million Americans. National Mental Health Association statistics show that 80 to 90 percent of people with the disorder have a relative with some form of depression. Those suffering from bipolar disorder tend to have a genetic predisposition or a chemical imbalance, and stress and biological trauma can affect the tendency to develop the disorder as well, Holmes said. Leslie Niswonger, Leoti graduate student, shops at TJ Maxx, 3106 Iowa SL, with her son, Dylon. Niswonger's son and her husband of 11 years cope with bipolar disorder. MPOLAR CHARACTERISTICS Manic Symptoms -- euphoria mood -- high self esteem -- increased energy -- irritability -- rapid thoughts and talk- ing -- distractibility and dif- ficiency concentrating -- little sleep needed -- hallucinations and delu- sions -- spending sprees -- increased sex drive -- substance abuse -- denial -- impulsivity -- aggression Mary E. Bracken Depressive Symptoms Depressive Symptoms - apathy - irritability - weight loss or weight gain - fatigue - feelings of worthlessness and guilt - decreased sex drive - insomnia and hypersomnia - suicidal thoughts - hallucinations and delusions - difficulty concentrating Sources: Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders - Fourth Ed The chemical imbalance is difficult to treat because of unstable neurotransmitters in the brain, he said. At times of mania, levels of neurotransmitter levels are high, whereas they are low during periods of depression. Prenatal stressors, such as the mother's diet, illnesses and substance abuse, in a fetus have shown to be correlated with the disorder, as well as birth complications, he said. Hanke stress factors, along with a genetic connection to the disorder, triggered her onset of depression in middle school. She moved from Missouri to Kansas in 6th grade, and her parents got divorced shortly after that. When she was 16, the birth of her sister caused an already growing depression to worsen. Many famous people have been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and others are thought to have been affected by it. The relation between individuals with creative minds and the disorder is bizarre. Holmes said that inheritance of bipolar disorder was the highest among all psychiatric disorders, with 80 percent of those diagnosed having some family history. Treatment Psychiatrists prescribe a variety of medications to treat the illness individually, including mood stabilizers, anti-convulsant drugs, antidepressants, anti-psychotic drugs and sedatives. Other traditional therapies can be used in combination with medication. Sylvia Plath, poet and author Kurt Kobain, singer and songwriter McKnelly said the most effective treatment option, without question, was the stabilizer lithium because it reduced the suicide rate more then fivefold. He was one of the first Jimmy Hendrix, singer and songwriter According to the NMHA, lithium is effective for treating mania in 60 percent of individuals with bipolar disorder. in the region to use the drug when it became available after its surprising effects in calming pigs in France in a 1940s study. Like mood stabilizers, anticonvulsant drugs approved by the Food and Drug Administration reduce mania, but are not used as much as mood stabilizers. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, they are used on patients with more difficult-to-treat episodes and are used in combination with lithium for maximum effect Antidepressants are used for those with depression, but physicians are reluctant to use them for individuals with bipolar disorder because they don't want to trigger a manic episode. Neuroleptic drugs, also known as anti-psychotics, can be used to help a patient who has hallucinations and delusions. John Niswonger said his wife took the anti-psychotic Seroquel and that it had done miracles by ending her night hallucinations and allowing her to think more clearly. "I had forgotten what it was like to get a full night's sleep," he said. Individuals taking any of these medications often have to deal with side effects. Hanke, who is prescribed lithium, said her most noticeable change, besides controlling her mania, was weight gain. The lithium also causes her to have hand tremors. Holmes said there were other approaches to treatment than medication. One proven to be effective was psychoeducation and cognitive behavior therapy. With these approaches, a patient and his or her family learns about the disorder and specific symptoms to his or her case. This allows an individual to receive social support and adjust everyday activities to cope. Electroconvulsive therapy, most commonly known as electric shock therapy, is a short-term treatment option that Hanke is thinking about trying. She rates the way she feels everyday a five on a scale of ten. CONTINUED ON PAGE 5A MASS.

Electroconvulsive therapy is very effective for reducing both symptoms of bipolar, especially for a patient who isn't improved by medication, Holmes said. The Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance, like other support groups, focuses on helping patients and families learn about and cope with the illness together. It has more than 1,000 support groups nationwide. Charlie Ross, facilitator for the Douglas County chapter, said the support group in Lawrence met twice every month to be educated and engage in camaraderie. "By large, I don't think KU students know about it," he said. Keeler stressed the importance of encouragement and support by those around an individual with bipolar disorder. She said having a regulated and supportive environment free of drugs and alcohol and with stress management skills could make a big difference. Coping Holmes said it was important to note that bipolar disorder is most commonly diagnosed in the same age range as most college students. It isn't clear why the onset of symptoms hits individuals in late adolescence and early to mid-twenties, he said. Men and women have the same risk to develop the disorder. Hanke fights every day for a smooth ride into normalcy. She continues her daily routine with the hope that she will find medication to influence her moods.

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 5A OBITUARY Titanic survivor dies BY ANDREW RYAN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS BOSTON — Lillian Gertrud Asplund, the last American survivor of the sinking of the Titanic in 1912, has died, a funeral home said Sunday. She was 99. Asplund, who was just 5 years old, lost her father and three brothers — including a fraternal twin — when the "practically unsinkable" ship went down in the North Atlantic after hitting an iceberg. She died Saturday at her home in Shrewsbury, said Ronald E. Johnson, vice president of the Nordgren Memorial Chapel in Worcester, Mass. "She went to sleep peacefully" he said. Asplund's mother, Selma, and another brother, Felix, who was 3, also survived the Titanic sinking in the early morning of April 15. 1912. Asplund was the last Titanic survivor with actual memories of the sinking, but she shunned publicity and rarely spoke about the events. At least two other survivors are living, but they were too young to have memories of the disaster. Barbara Joyce West Dainton of Truro, England, was 10 months old and Elizabeth Gladys "Millvina" Dean of Southampton, England, was 2 months old. The Asplund family had boarded the ship in Southampton, England, as third-class passengers on their way back to Worcester from their ancestral homeland, Sweden, where they had spent several years. Asplun's mother described the sinking in an interview with the Worcester Telegram & Gazette newspaper shortly after she and her two children arrived in the city. Selma Asplund said the family went to the Titanic's upper deck after the ship struck the iceberg. "I could see the icebergs for a great distance around ... It was cold and the little ones were cuddling close to one another and trying to keep from under the feet of the many excited people ... My little girl, Lillie, accompanied me, and my husband said 'Go ahead, we will get into one of the other boats.' He smiled as he said it." Because they lost all of their possessions and money, the city of Worcester held a fundraiser and a benefit concert that together brought in about $2,000 for the surviving Aspounds. Lillian Asplund never married and worked at secretarial jobs in the Worcester area most of her life. She retired early to care for her mother, who was described as having never gotten over the tragedy. Selma Asplund died on the 52nd anniversary of the sinking in 1964 at age 91. Felix Asplund died on March 1, 1983, at age 73. NATION Authorities in search of polygamist BY DOUG ALDEN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS SALT LAKE CITY — Polygamist church leader Warren Jeffs has been placed on the FBI's Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list in hopes that the additional exposure and reward money will lead to his arrest. Jeffs, 50, is accused of arranging marriages between underage girls and older men. He is wanted in Arizona on criminal charges of sexual conduct with a minor. He also was charged in Utah with rape as an accomplice. "We are doing everything we can to track him down," Fuhrman, special agent in charge of the FB's Salt Lake City field office, said Saturday. Jeffs is the leader of the polyg. amous Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, based in the neighboring communities of Hildale, Utah, and Colorado City, Ariz. The sect split from mainstream Mormonism after the broader church renounced polygamy in 1890. The mainstream LDS church excommunicates members found to be practicing polygamy. Jeffs has not been seen by anyone outside of the FLDS community for nearly two years. He also faces a charge of unlawful flight to avoid prosecution. By putting him on the Top 10 list, the FBI's reward increases from $50,000 to $100,000. The list is also distributed worldwide. "We think that the inclusion of a $100,000 reward is going to mean that people are going to be much more aware of Warren Jeffs, they're going to be much more aware of what he looks like, and they're going to be much more willing to come forward to assist us in our efforts to locate him," U.S. Attorney Paul Charlton said at a news conference in Phoenix. Jeffs' case appeared on "America's Most Wanted." 100% Attention all Tradition Keepers!

Valente, a 29-year-old graphic artist from York, Pa., said she devotes about 30 hours a week in vast online worlds and spent more than $1,500 on games last year. year. "I watch less and less TV. I turn it on and the shows are just idiotic," Valente said. "When I play the games, I actually look through the character's eyes. I actually become the character." According to a new AP-AOL Games poll, 40 percent of American adults play games on a computer or a console. Men, younger adults and minorities were most likely to play those games. Among those who describe themselves as gamers, 45 percent play over the Internet. And more than a third of online gamers spent more than $200 last year on gaming, compared with nearly a quarter of those who don't play games online. Online gamers also spent more time playing those games. Forty-two percent of online gamers said they spent at least four hours playing games during an average week, compared with 26 percent of those who don't play online. About one in six online gamers play more than 10 hours a week. The survey results come as Sony Corp., Nintendo Co. and Microsoft Corp. prepare to push their new consoles this week at the Electronic Entertainment Expo in Los Angeles. All three are hoping to make broad online features such as multiplayer games, video conferencing and downloadable content a core element of the game. Only 11 percent spent more than $500 last year. Online gamers are more likely to have spent more than $500 last year compared with gamers who don't play online. Six in 10 hardcore gamers — those who play three or more hours per week — spent $200 or less on games last year. "Once you start they get quite intricate. You're looking at four to five hours a night." Cameron Wright Investment manager and gamer the video game experience. Casual games like board or card games were the most popular, followed by strategy games, action sports, adventure, firstperson shooters and simulations, the poll found. Casual strategy and role-playing games were most popular among online gamers. And that game playing can be expensive. Cameron Wright's gaming cost more than $4,500 last year, most of that on upgrades to two of his four PCs. More than a fourth of gamers say they spent nothing on that hobby last year and slightly more, 31 percent, spent $100 or less. Although Wright usually spends about two hours a week on gaming, he said he sometimes makes extra time for adulthimated military strategy games like "Command and Conquer," which he plays online with friends. "Once you start, they get quite intricate," said Wright, a 44-year-old investment manager from Indianapolis. "You're looking at four to five hours a night." Of those who play online games, nearly one in five said they had formed ongoing friendships or relationships with fellow gamers they did not know before, the poll found. Valente said she met her roommate and her boyfriend in online games and regularly uses special computer software called TeamSpeak to talk with teammates and friends. MIDDLE EAST Protests leave 26 injured Israeli police squatters clash in West Bank MOROCCAN POLICE THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Officers stormed inside after sawing through a barricaded metal door. Some in the crowd outside tried to force their way HEBRON, West Bank Baton-wielding Israeli police cajoled and dragged dozens of Jewish squatters out of a three-story, Palestinian-owned home Sunday, demonstrating the new government's resolve to confront extremist settlers. 06 ore nd ith for ym snt on o is cct r s, f Nineteen officers and seven settlers were reported injured during a clash outside as protesters tried to keep police from entering the building in a scene reminiscent of violence during last summer's forced evacuation of all the Jewish settlements in the Gaza Strip. Hours before the Hebron eviction began, police and settlers clashed when officers cleared away a crowd of protesters outside the home. The squatters threw balloons and light bulbs filled with paint from the roof. Police said settlers inside also threw stones, bottles and firebombs. In another sign of his tough approach, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert told his Cabinet's first session that he also will crack down on wildcat settler outposts in the West Bank that have drawn international criticism. Olmer wants to withdraw from most of the West Bank and draw Israel's borders by 2010, a program that infuriates settlers, many of whom view the whole territory as a Jewish biblical birthright. The plan also has angered Palestinian leaders because Olmert said he will proceed even without a peace deal, pursuing a course similar to the unilateral Gaza withdrawal initiated by then Prime Minister Ariel Sharon. A Jewish woman struggles with Israeli riot police as she is arrested during the evacuation of settlers from a Palestinian building in the West Bank town of Hebron on Sunday. Israeli police Sunday evacuated dozens of Jewish squatters who took over a Palestinian home in the West Bank city of Hebron, in an important first test for Israel's new government and its plans to uproot tens of thousands of settlers. Kevin Fraver/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS in, too, but officers pulled the struggling protesters away, sometimes slapping them to calm their thrashing. Police appealed to the squatters — some with toddlers and babies — to leave peacefully, and some agreed. But others had to be hauled out, including one woman whose infant bawled as officers carried them out. The operation took about two hours, and three families and 27 young sympathizers were removed, police spokesman Mickey Rosenfeld said. He said 17 settlers were arrested. Discarded water bottles, ice cream wrappers and half-eaten sandwiches overflowed from cardboard boxes in the damp, stone alley in front of the emptied building, which is not far from the Tomb of the Patriarchs in the garage to Jews and a shrine holy to Jews and Muslims. Authorities said about 700 police, supported by 1,000 soldiers, took part in the operation to enforce a court order that the squatters be removed. Palestinians claiming to own the building went to court seeking their eviction, but Israel's Supreme Court ruled that key documents were forged.

The criticism of the expected choice of Gen. Michael Hayden to head the CIA came from some influential Republicans in Congress as well as from Democrats. "I do believe he's the wrong person, the wrong place, at the wrong time." The sentiment was echoed by Republican Rep. Saxby Chambliss of Georgia, who said Hayden's military background would be a "major problem," and several Democrats who made the rounds of the Sunday talk shows. Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del., said Hayden could leave agents with the impression "I do believe he's the wrong person, the wrong place, at the wrong time," said House Intelligence Committee Chairman Peter Hoekstra, R-Mich. "We should not have a military person leading a civilian agency at this time." Hoekstra said on "Fox News Sunday" that having a general in charge of the CIA could create the impression among agents around the world that the agency is under Pentagon control. If he were to get the nomination, military officers would run all the major spy agencies, from the ultra-secret National Security Agency to the Defense Intelligence Agency. ICE HOOLS Rep. Peter Hoekstra that the CIA has been "just gobbled up by the Defense Department." The criticism comes a day before Bush was expected to name Hayden as his choice to lead the CIA. Outgoing director Porter Goss abruptly announced his resignation Friday after fewer than two years on the job. Hayden is widely respected in both parties for his long experience with intelligence, and many lawmakers said he could be a good candidate for some other job. Some, like Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California, suggested that he might think about resigning his military post if he were going to head the CIA. California Rep. Jane Harman, leading Democrat on the House intelligence committee, said Hayden "made a big mistake" by defending the legality of in December during a speech at the National Press Club, and on CNN's "Late Edition." Fats Domino bails on festival ANCHORAM ENTERTAINMENT Carol Scott of New Orleans joins others in dancing during a rain shower as they listen to Geno Delafose & French Rockin' Boone during the 2006 New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival in New Orleans on Sunday. Lionel Ritchie plays instead, show a success Rob Carr/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS BY STACEY PLAISANCE THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW ORLEANS — Fats Domino, the headliner for Jazz Fest's final day, canceled his performance several hours before he was to take the stage Sunday, organizers said. Festival organizers declined to say why the 78-year-old Hall of Fame performer would not play. Last week, he had canceled an autograph session for his latest album "Alive and Kickin"," saying he was fatigued and wanted to rest up for the Jazz Fest performance. As fans poured through the gates Sunday morning, Barbara Martin claimed her spot near the stage set up initially for Domino and Paul Simon. Lionel Richie was instead going to perform the closing set at the main stage. On Thursday, in an interview with The Associated Press, Domino said he was excited about performing and hoped to inspire festival-goers. Domino lost his home, his pianos, his gold and platinum records, and much of the city he loves in Hurricane Katrina's flooding. The six-day festival over two weekends drew enthusiastic crowds of locals and out-of-towners eager to support the storm-ravaged city and its music. The 37th annual festival was held at the New Orleans Fair Grounds Race Course, which was under 5 feet of water at the height of the flooding. "This has been a Jazz Fest like no other," said Martin, who had attended three days of the festival. "So many artists have come down for us. They're trying to inspire us to restore and rebuild New Orleans, both musically and emotionally." Soul singer Irma Thomas played before a rain-soaked crowd in the afternoon, opening her act with, appropriately, "It's Raining." "I sang this song to let you know that we're all hurting, but we have hope," Thomas said. Hertone became more somber for "In the Middle of it All," which she said represents the state of city and its people right now. Later in the day, jazz clarinetist Pete Fountain, who also lost his home in the storm and then had quadruple bypass heart surgery in March, was expected to play. He has been largely out of the limelight this year. He was too ill for his traditional march with his Half Fast Marching Club in this year's Mardi Gras. Fountain's home in New Orleans is repaired, but he lost his $1.5 million house in Bay St. Louis, Miss., his gold records, memorabilia and 10 musical instruments to the storm. Many musicians returned to New Orleans for the festival, some for the first time since Katrina. Some, however, were unable to make the trip, including Aaron Neville, who for more than a decade had performed with his brothers Art, Cyril and Charles on the festival's closing day. Art, who played the festival last weekend, is the only Neville brother living in New Orleans since the storm.

The University Daily Kansan has published editorials about numerous concerns that affect students on a global scale. The University itself has an excellent Study Abroad program and is developing its Confucius Institute for Chinese studies. Numerous students participate in activities to draw attention to world events such as the chaos in Darfur, Sudan and join groups such as the Peace Corps that work with the disadvantaged the world over. And yet, our age group — people from 18 to 24 years of age — just doesn't appear to give a flip about the world at all, and with the world becoming more and more global, this could become a major handicap not only to individuals but also to our country. A study conducted by Roper Public Affair for the National Geographic Society found that many people who are college-aged can't find important countries or states on a map. Two thirds can't locate Iraq. Six months after Hurricane Katrina, one third couldn't locate the state of Louisiana. Afghanistan, Iran, Israel and Saudi Arabia — nations often in the news — were also difficult for students to locate, as were the states of New York and Ohio. This isn't new news, either. A similar survey conducted for the Society in 2002 also showed that Americans were severely lacking in geographic knowledge. To add insult to injury, less than 30 percent of those polled said it was important to know where nations in the news were located and only 14 percent said it was important to be fluent in a foreign language. Terry Slocum, associate professor and chairman of geography, said that this wasn't a new phenomena and that other professors in his department have complained for the past 15 to 20 years about students that didn't know their geography. One source of the problem Stance: Students lack important knowledge about the world in which we live. Issue: College students and geography could be the lack of geography courses in middle and high schools, he said. "You can't understand world affairs if you don't know where things are," he said. The United States is one of the most powerful countries in the world. In the last five years, our government has conducted two military campaigns overseas, sending thousands of Americans abroad. Our economy is a major player in the world market and there's a reason our country was once called a "melting pot" of cultures. It is unacceptable that we, the future leaders and citizens of this country, do not know about our global neighbors and downplay the importance of such knowledge. One should not live, work and play in this world without understanding it. But there is hope. Any student reading the Kansan — or any newspaper — is attempting to increase his or her knowledge of the world. Any student who studies geography or learns a foreign language is preparing him- or herself for the future. Go online to http:// www9.nationalgeographic. com/roper2006/question_ 01.html and test yourself. Show the world that not everyone, especially Jayhawks, is ignorant about his our her role in our global society. - Ty Beaver for the editorial board LETTER TO THE EDITOR Make safety a priority With finals quickly approaching, we are all busy trying to plan our summer vacations. For many, that includes quality time soaking up the sun at one of the many area lakes. Unfortunately, for some that quality time turns into a disaster. But it doesn't have to be that way. Being aware of the basic safety precautions and local laws will help keep you and your friends safe. First of all, those dorky little vests that you always see people wear on TV? That's not just the costumers having fun. Personal Flotation Devices are integral to keeping you afloat should you fall out of the boat. Find one that fits properly and wear it. At minimum, you need to have one Coast Guard approved PFD for each person on the boat and readily available, and for boats measuring more than sixteen feet you also need a Type-IV throw cushion. If you don't like the bulkiness of the PFD while it's on, consider an inflatable. Secondly, make sure you have some way of signaling for help should you get stranded. This can include day and nighttime flares, a signal flag or utilizing one of those free AOL disks as a light reflector. If you want to go a little bit more high tech, learn how to use a marine vhs radio. Marinas are required to monitor channel 16, or you may even be in contact with a Coast Guard Auxiliary patrol who will be able to assist you. Also, remember that the noise from your boat or personal water craft, glare from the sun, and summer's heat serve as stressors and increase the rate of fatigue on you and all on board. Because of this, one alcoholic drink on the water is equal to three on land. If you decide to drink while boating, make sure you have a designated non-drinking operator who can ensure a safe arrival back at the marina. Have fun this summer with whatever you decide to do. I look forward to seeing you all back here safe and sound in the fall. Except for the graduating seniors. To all of you, get outta here!

Doesn't Appeal to me. Signed. George Bush Last week, my world came crashing down. I realized that I'm probably not going to get a 4.0 GPA this semester. This is hard for me to swallow. I have a very difficult time dealing with the thought. I confess: I am grade obsessed. by grading standards, I have actually gained more skills and knowledge that will allow me to live a fulfilling life and have a career one day than I ever have before. Obviously, there's a lesson here: Grades don't mean everything. When I say this, I don't mean that school is just a conformist mind-control device used by The Man to bring you down or that you should just drop out and play your acoustic guitar on Massachusetts Street all day. I just mean that grades don't really reflect what you've accomplished. Education, especially higher education, is about preparing yourself for the years ahead of you. Make this your goal, and the grades will sort themselves out. I'll pause for a moment for all of you to wash the taste of vomit from your mouths. I completely understand the contempt that we grade-obsessed people draw from those who don't need everything they do validated by a percentage. Please, continue to study for finals and finish your end-of-semester projects. But make those things exercises in showing what you've learned, not struggles to get certain grades. But please, have pity on me. I suffer from an innocent mental condition. I must make all "A's." I've found that this mindset makes things considerably less stressful. So, this is my advice, to the slackers and the grade-obsessed alike: Quit stressing about grades and just try to absorb skills and knowledge. Or, you can drive yourself crazy and go the Ron Burgundy route. It's your choice. I briefly considered just completely letting myself go like Ron Burgundy after he gets fired in "Anchorman," wandering the streets with a scraggly beard and drinking milk straight from the carton. But then I realized I had a column to write. My topic was to be what I had learned during my freshman year of college. I had planned to put down a bunch of clichés about getting parking tickets, ordering pizza and swimming in fountains. Instead, I decided to put down a bunch of clichés about not chasing grades. After a 15-minute period of moping, I got to thinking. So, when it became apparent to me that it would be near impossible for me to do so this semester, I was crushed. My life was pretty much over. - Erickson is an Overland Park freshman in journalism and political science. PAGE 9A MATT ERICKSON opinion@kansan.com Because this semester will likely be the first time in my academic career that I don't achieve a 4.0 GPA, one might surmise that I have learned less than I have during any previous semester during college, high school or any previous educational level.

In my Spanish class, I've learned to communicate — albeit crudely and awkwardly — in an entirely different language.

SUBMISSIONS COMMENTARY Focus of scandal should be on rape Peggy Sloan YOUNG WILLIAM KELLY COCHRAN opinion@kansan.com Members of Duke University's nationally ranked lacrosse team were accused of raping and sodomizing an exotic dancer hired to perform at one of their team parties. Because the case involves wealthy students in a poor community and an African American female victim, the story, which started as an allegation of gang rape, has spiraled into a series of mini-wars pitting rich against poor, white against black and women against men. It concerns me that the focus has shifted from the accusation of such a humiliating and violent crime to an issue of one demographic triumphing over another. I am disturbed by the fact that the shock of such a violent rape existed as hardly more than a stutter before it was drowned out by other perceived injustices. While the incident may represent culture clashes, let's look at what's really going on. Sexual violence on college campuses needs to be stopped and it is something that should concern every member of society equally. It's easy to blame behavior on being under the influence or to claim that boundaries were not clear. In the case of the lacrosse team, the victim's status as an exotic dancer leads some to believe that she "asked for it." An appropriate reaction is an effort to prevent similar instances from occurring. Rape and sexual assault has received more attention in recent decades, yet it is still one of the most under-reported crimes, with more than half of all sexual assaults left unreported. According to RAINN, the Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network, every two and a half minutes, somewhere in America, someone is sexually assaulted. Our society is becoming more aware of sexual assault and understanding that it is a situation of victimization, and because of that rape and sexual assault has fallen more than 64% since 1993. Even though sexual assault is on the decline, reaching complete eradication of sexual assault still requires victims to report the incidences. Kristen Abell, Program Coordinator at the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center, said that sexual assault was the most common problem seen at the center. While assault technically fits under the category of physical abuse, victims are also just as likely to be counseled for emotional abuse as well. Sexual violence on college campuses needs to be stopped and there are resources that specifically address sexual assault on campuses. Web sites, hotlines, and on-campus groups are there to be used and to help stop these crimes from happening. Be aware and help make sure no one has to be subject to such a violent crime.

The University Daily Kansan has published editorials about numerous concerns that affect students on a global scale. The University itself has an excellent Study Abroad program and is developing its Confucius Insititute for Chinese studies. Numerous students participate in activities to draw attention to world events such as the chaos in Darfur, Sudan and join groups such as the Peace Corps that work with the disadvantaged the world over. A study conducted by Roper Public Affair for the National Geographic Society found that many people who are college-aged can't find important countries or states on a map. Two thirds can't locate Iraq. Six months after Hurricane Katrina, one third couldn't locate the state of Louisiana. Afghanistan, Iran, Israel and Saudi Arabia — nations often in the news — were also difficult for students to locate, as were the states of New York and Ohio. And yet, our age group — people from 18 to 24 years of age — just doesn't appear to give a flip about the world at all, and with the world becoming more and more global, this could become a major handicap not only to individuals but also to our country. This isn't new news, either. A similar survey conducted for the Society in 2002 also showed that Americans were severely lacking in geographic knowledge. To add insult to injury, less than 30 percent of those polled said it was important to know where nations in the news were located and only 14 percent said it was important to be fluent in a foreign language. Terry Slocum, associate professor and chairman of geography, said that this wasn't a new phenomena and that other professors in his department have complained for the past 15 to 20 years about students that didn't know their geography. One source of the problem Issue: College students and geography Stance: Students lack important knowledge about the world in which we live. could be the lack of geography courses in middle and high schools. he said. The necessity of understanding geography is an important concept for students, especially those who wish to work with major companies or have jobs overseas. But there is hope. Any student reading the Kens The United States is one of the most powerful countries in the world. In the last five years, our government has conducted two military campaigns overseas, sending thousands of Americans abroad. Our economy is a major player in the world market and there's a reason our country was once called a "melting pot" of cultures. It is unacceptable that we, the future leaders and citizens of this country, do not know about our global neighbors and downplay the importance of such knowledge. One should not live, work and play in this world without understanding it. student reading the Renaissance — or any newspaper — is attempting to increase his or her knowledge of the world. Any student who studies geography or learns a foreign language is preparing him- or herself for the future.

Ty Beaver for the editorial board Make safety a priority LETTER TO THE EDITOR With finals quickly approaching, we are all busy trying to plan our summer vacations. For many, that includes quality time soaking up the sun at one of the many area lakes. Unfortunately, for some that quality time turns into a disaster. But it doesn't have to be that way. Being aware of the basic safety precautions and local laws will help keep you and your friends safe. First of all, those dorky little vests that you always see people wear on TV? That's not just the costumers having fun. Personal Flotation Devices are integral to keeping you afloat should you fall out of the boat. Find one that fits properly and wear it. At minimum, you need to have one Coast Guard approved PFD for each person on the boat and readily available, and for boats measuring more than sixteen feet you also need a Type-IV throw cushion. If you don't like the bulkiness of the PFD while it's on, consider an inflatable. Secondly, make sure you have some way of signaling for help should you get stranded. This can include day and Also, remember that the noise from your boat or personal water craft, glare from the sun, and summer's heat serve as stressors and increase the rate of fatigue on you and all on board.

If you want to go a little bit more high tech, learn how to use a marine vhs radio.

Because the case involves wealthy students in a poor community and an African American female victim, the story, which started as an allegation of gang rape, has spiraled into a series of mini-wars pitting rich against poor, white against black and women against men. It concerns me that the focus has shifted from the accusation of such a humiliating and violent crime to an issue of one demographic triumphing over another. I am disturbed by the fact that the shock of such a violent rape existed as hardly more than a stutter before it was drowned out by other perceived injustices. While the incident may represent culture clashes, let's look at what's really going on. Sexual violence on college campuses needs to be stopped and it is something that should concern every member of society equally. It's easy to blame behavior on being under the influence or to claim that boundaries were not clear. In the case of the lacrosse team, the victim's status as an exotic dancer leads some to believe that she "asked for it." An appropriate reaction is an effort to prevent similar instances from occurring. Rape and sexual assault has received more attention in recent decades, yet it is still one of the most under-reported crimes, with more than half of all sexual assaults left unreported. According to RAINN, the Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network, every two and a half minutes, somewhere in America, someone is sexually assaulted. Our society is becoming more aware of sexual assault and understanding that it is a situation of victimization, and because of that rape and sexual assault has fallen more than 64% since 1993. Even though sexual assault is on the decline, reaching complete eradication of sexual assault still requires victims to report the incidences. Kristen Abell, Program Coordinator at the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center, said that sexual assault was the most common problem seen at the center. While assault technically fits under the category of physical abuse, victims are also just as likely to be counseled for emotional abuse as well. Sexual violence on college campuses needs to be stopped and there are resources that specifically address sexual assault on campuses. Web sites, hotlines, and on-campus groups are there to be used and to help stop these crimes from happening. Be aware and help make sure no one has to be subject to such a violent crime.

RODRIGUEZ THE ASSOCIATED PRESS TJUANA, Mexico — Alejandro Valenzuela, a loquacious 12-year-old, memorized the details of a borrowed U.S. birth certificate and jumped in the front seat of his smuggler's car. Tired from a two-day bus trip to the border, from Mexico's central state of Jalisco, Alejandro soon fell asleep. He was awakened by the flashlight of a U.S. immigration inspector. "I told him in English, 'I'm an American citizen,' but he kept asking questions. That's all the English I know," Alejandro said as he rested at a child welfare office back in town. back in Tijuana, across the border from San Diego. Alejandro is one of a rising number of children trying to sneak into the United States without their parents. Some hide in cars or try to pass themselves off as U.S. citizens, while others ride inner tubes across the Rio Grande or trek through the harsh Arizona desert. These are criminals working with sophisticated smuggling organizations that will go to any length to make money." Since October, about 70,000 children have been detained along the Mexican border, a 5 percent increase over the same period a year earlier, the U.S. Border Patrol says. prompted the United States to tighten security along its southern border, making it harder to sneak in. Rather than risking a return to Mexico to get their children, many migrants are paying smugglers to bring them north. Like Alejandro — who wants to get to Corona, Calif., to join a father he hasn't seen in nine years — most children are heading north to reunite with parents living illegally in the United States. Experts say that number will likely increase if the U.S. Congress presses ahead with plans to tighten border security even more. The Sept. 11 terror attacks In the traditional method of crossing children, a smugger Adele Fasano U.S. Customs and Border Protection drives across the border pretending to be a relative of the child, who is carrying false or "borrowed" documents. But border agents are giving closer scrutiny to documents, and smugglers are trying other methods. "We're seeing a very dangerous trend of stuffing minors in trunks, in hidden compartments, in washing machines, even in gas tanks," said Adele Fasano, director of field operations for the San Diego district of U.S. Customs and Border Protection. Last August, border inspectors found a 10-year-old boy who had been sedated with cough medicine and crammed inside the dashboard of a van. The boy was unconscious and dehydrated, Fasano said. Fasano said many of those children had to be treated for respiratory distress or burns from being near hot engines. "These are criminals working with sophisticated smuggling organizations that will go to any length to make money," Fasano said.

Nicoletta Niosi/KANSAN Man to row old slave trade route WORLD BY HEIDI VOGT THE ASSOCIATED PRESS DAKAR, Senegal — A New Yorker set off from West Africa on Sunday to become the first black American to row solo across the Atlantic. Victor Mooney, 41, said the voyage in his homemade, 24-foot boat is to raise awareness of AIDS in Africa and memorialize the route that took African slaves to the Americas. Africans "went through slavery and now they're going through AIDS and being devastated again," said Mooney, who lost a brother to the disease. About 50 people gathered on the beach to watch Mooney head off toward his hometown — many saying they wished him well, but weren't sure why he was undertaking the dangerous adventure. He's crazy.Everybody wants to go to America,but not like that." "He's crazy," said Gaston Sabaly, who works at a beachside restaurant. "Everybody wants to go to America, but not like that." Mooney's craft has no backup sail or motor, and he is rowing with no accompanying boat. He said the French military has promised to send planes over his route occasionally to check on him. Fewer than 50 people have completed solo rows across the Atlantic, according to the England-based Ocean Rowing Society. Four have been lost at sea in the attempt and nearly 40 have had to abandon their trips, the group says. Gaston Sabaly Senegal resident Mooney said he is the first to attempt the trip from Africa. He hopes to reach the Americas in about 120 days. Wind patterns and currents mean he'll likely hit the Caribbean first, then start up the U.S. East Coast toward the Brooklyn Bridge — which he aims to reach by October. October His trip was delayed for nearly a month in Senegal to fix a keel broken by fishermen who tried to move his boat by rolling it on logs. He called the delay a surprise boon because it gave him time to know the local population. Mooney said the boat and its supplies are worth more than $100,000, but he got most of his materials as in-kind donations.

Settlemier notched her final regular season victory as a Jayhawk, her 16th of 2006, by allowing only three hits and striking out eight batters in the victory against the Cyclones. Seniors perform BY RVAN SCHNEIDER rschneider@kansan.com KANSAN SENIOR SPORTSWRIVER Heather Stanley picked quite a day to record one of her best performances of the season. Stanley led off the third inning with a single to left field. She advanced to second after freshman third baseman "Last week, we couldn't buy a hit," Stanley said. "This week, we've done pretty well the last couple games." The senior designated-hitter struggled in the last two weeks, going 1-for-12 at the plate. Stanley changed that trend Sunday on Senior Day. She went 2-for-3 at the plate, scored two runs and recorded an RBI in Kansas' 3-0 victory against Iowa State at Arrocha Ballpark. "Heather's been struggling," Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said. "She pulled herself together and looked like a much different hitter today. She really took some good hacks and obviously had a couple big hits and an RBI today in a big situation. She looked good up at the plate." Stanley and the other five seniors had a big day at the plate, recording six of the team's eight hits. For a team that had struggled offensively in the last two weeks, Kansas effectively used a small-ball strategy to advance base runners and score runs, as opposed to relying on the home run. Last week, we couldn't buy a hit. This week we've done pretty well the last couple games." Heather Stanley Senior designated-hitter Val Chapple's sacrifice bunt. Stanley scored the Jayhawks' first run after senior pitcher Serena Settlemier reached base on an error by Cyclone second baseman Jennifer Bigbee. Stanley contributed to Kansas' two other runs in the fourth inning. She recorded a two-out single, scoring senior left fielder Nettie Fierros and then scored a run herself off senior center fielder Stevie Cristo's single to center field. Settlemier pitched one of her best outings of the season, allowing only three hits and striking out eight in the game for her 16th victory of the season. The 16 victories are a career high for the fifth-year senior. "Ifelt in a groove," Settlemier said. "I was in a rhythm, I had my pitches working." The key for Settlemier on Sunday was keeping the Cyclones' hitters off balance with a mix of fastballs and off-speed pitches. Her eight strike outs were a personal best in Big 12 play this season. SEE SOFTBALL ON PAGE 3B SOCCER Open try outs scheduled Coach seeks to add four new players BY MARK DENT mdent@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER In the last three years the Kan sas soccer program has reached new heights, including a Big 12 Championship, a Top 10 ranking and NCAA Tournament berths. The Jayhawks, however, have accomplished these feats with one notable handicap: fewer players on their roster than other Big 12 teams. This fall, Kansas will solve that problem by holding open trouts to extend its roster. "Compared to other Big 12 schools, we used to have smaller teams by far," Kansas coach Mark Francis said. "Now we'll be right in line." Adding players to the soccer roster was something that Francis and the Athletics Department had been trying to do since last season. Francis said that he originally had wanted to have three more players than the 23 that were on the team last season, but said he couldn't find enough players he liked. Jim Marchiony, associate athletics director, said the addition of the four players had nothing to do with Title IX compliance.

Texas A&M 30 Oklahoma State 29 Oklahoma 27 Nebraska 24 Missouri 24 Baylor 24 Kansas 23 Colorado 22 Iowa State 21 Texas Tech 21 Texas 20 "We are just trying to make sure that everyone with the talent and desire to play can play," Marchiony said. "Soccer is a sport where we are at the low end of players in the Big 12, and we need to improve that." Francis said he didn't have any idea how many players would try out, but said it would be a mix of incoming freshmen players and current Kansas club soccer players. Currently, the fall's soccer team has 24 players on the roster, 18 returning players and six incoming freshman. The open tryouts will take place on the first day of school, Aug. 17. Marchiony also said that the Athletics Department could add more roster spots to other sports in the future, but didn't make any guarantees. BASEBALL Joe Buolewicz/THE DAILY TEXAN DYNAMIC RELEASE Senior shortstop Ritchie Price reaches for a throw as junior Nick Peoples slides into second base Sunday in Austin. Kansas lost 11-1 to Texas on Sunday. 'Hawks fall in series Game ends in eighth after run rule BY ALISSA BAUER abauer@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER With just one Big 12 Conference series remaining, Kansas succumbed to its first conference sweep in Austin this weekend, ending with an 11-1 loss to Texas on Sunday. Sunday's game was called in the eighth inning after Drew Stubbs scored on third baseman Erik Morrison's throwing error. That run triggered the Big 12' Sunday run rule, cutting the game off in the bottom of the eighth with one on and one out for the Longhorns. Like Friday night's series opener, Kansas (33-21, 10-14) hung with the defending national champs early as sophomore designated hitter Brock Simpson led off the game with a double to center. Simpson scored on a sacrifice fly from senior centerfielder Matt Baty, putting the Jav Hawks on the board first. Baty's RBI was the first and last of the afternoon for Kansas. Sophomore Adrian Alaniz (6-2) shut Kansas down after giving up three hits in the first inning.

But in my final column today, I've become not only reflective, but grateful. As I've been lucky enough to write sports columns in the Kansas all year, I've fought a battle with myself not to take it for granted. If I ever did, I should be ashamed of myself. As one chapter of life ends after college and another one looms, I can't help but remember a friend who was taken too soon. JIMMY CHAVEZ jchavez@kansan.co m About eight years ago, I was working on my high school paper and like clockwork every day, my friend Mike would pay us his morning visit. Usually the discussions would be about how much we disliked school or weekend plans. If we get to write about them, cover them for TV or call the games on the radio, we should just feel lucky. As fellow Kansan writer and good friend Daniel Berk has always said, we're just living the dream. We all are. Whether we want to accept it or not, these are all just games. This is why I didn't think the world was coming to an end after Kansas lost to Bradley in the NCAA tournament. The same could be said for when the football team was at 3-4 and facing a turning point in its season before facing Missouri. Whatever mood I was in, he always acted as if all was people. There weren't many people I've ever met who exhibited an appreciation for life as Mike did. Then in 1999, while skateboarding, Mike flipped off his skateboard and hit his head. He got up with a headache, but thought nothing of it and left. That night he went to sleen and never woke up. We were all devastated by his death and when graduation came a couple of years later, we remembered our friend who never got to walk the stage with us. Today, I realize that I am lucky for everything I have, everyone I know and everyone I've ever cared about. I am living the dream. I just hope I don't wake too soon. Mike always knew what I wanted to do with my life. Maybe it's the many things that have happened throughout the year that has made me become introspective. From the football game against Nebraska, many road trips, the Fort Worth Bowl, my work with KJHK, the basketball season, I wonder how Mike would think about it today. Of all the friends I've ever had, he believed in me as much as anyone. He was a kind soul and an even kinder person. He never deserved to be taken so soon, but it always made me wonder what exactly awaits after life. It must really be good. When I take that into consideration, my fears about life after college shouldn't be that bad. This is why I remember Mike every day as graduation beckons. Forever in his memory, I live as if tomorrow may never come. Although he's gone, his dream will never die.

St. Louis took a 7-0 lead for the third game in a row. Albert Pujols hit a two-run single, giving him 38 RBIs. SoTaguchi had two hits and two RBIs, and Scott Spiezio doubled twice and drove in a run. Underdog takes playoff victory The Associated Press INTRAMURALS BY CASE KEFFER ckeefer@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER On paper, the TKE intramural softball team looked far superior to Beta A-2. After all, Beta A-2 entered the intramural playoffs last week without winning a single regular season game. TKE finished with a 2-1 record and second place in their league. However, it didn't matter in the playoffs. Beta A-2 ended TKE's season in the second round of the playoffs with a 13- 10 victory last Thursday day night. Coming off of a convinceing 15-11 victory against Kappa Alpha in the "I just got lucky today and hit some really nice line drives." first round, TKE was the heavy favorite in the match-up. Matt Dupy Salina junior "We started out 0-2-1 and now, this is our second win in the tournament," said Beta A-2 player Trevor Nohe, Overland Park junior. "We are peaking at the right time." Nohe was 3-for-3 in the game with a walk. Nohe got on base every time he went to the plate, which contributed greatly to Beta A-2's victory. Nohe helped his team the most by playing extremely well in left field. In the final three innings, Nohe's play in the field was a big highlight reel. In the fifth inning, Nohe caught a fly ball hit by TKE's Ryan Zluticky, Wichita junior, and showcased his arm strength by throwing out a tagging runner at third base. Nohe didn't have an opportunity to get to every ball, though. TKE player Will Dunmeir, Wichita junior, single-handedly kept his team competitive with two home runs in the fourth and sixth innings. Dunmeir also had six RBI and turned two double plays in the field from his shortstop position. "I just got lucky today and hit some really nice line drives." Dupy said. Starting the fourth inning, the game was tied at 8-8. That was when Beta A-2 finally had an opportunity to pull away. In a clutch two-out hit, first baseman Matt Dupy, Salina junior, sparked a string of hits that resulted in a five-run inning. After Dupy's hit, Beta A-2's pitcher Michael Raupp, Leawood junior, solidified the victory by giving up only two runs. TKE's pitcher Ryan Zluticky pitched extremely well at the beginning of the game by treating Beta A-2 to two straight scoreless endings. Neither Zluticky's early pitching nor Dumier's late hitting were enough to overcome the upset Beta A-2 team. "We had too many defensive errors." Dunnier said. — Edited by Hayley Travis Postseason uncertain after difficult season The Kansas men's golf team is sitting on the edge of post-season eligibility. The team will find out Monday morning when the NCAA makes its selections for regionals. The Jayhawks have endured a rough spring, but were able to bounce back from their early-season struggles to finish eighth in the Big 12 Championship last month. The team comes into the selection process ranked 107th in the golf-week.com national rankings. The NCAA regionals are split into three sites, meaning the players would travel to Florida, Ohio or Arizona to compete from May 18-20.

Settlemier, other seniors shine during their final home game BY MARK DENT mdent@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER Could you blame Serena Settlemier for being a little bit jittery? THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN SOFTBALL After all, she was pitching in front of her Kelso, Wash., family members and hundreds of fans in her final home softball game. On Settlemier's second pitch of the game, the senior pitcher stepped on the hill, wound back with her familiar delivery, and let loose. Only instead of throwing the ball to home plate, she lost her grasp and flung the ball directly into the dirt beneath her. "Yeah, that was embarrassing. Settlemier said. "It just seems to happen sometimes." "I felt in my groove out there," the right hander said. "I just kept them off balance." Outside of Settlemier's humorous first-inning miscue on the mound, she was as sharp as ever, pitching a perfect game for more than four innings before finally allowing three hits in a complete game shutout. Settlemier's performance on Sunday was a coronation of not only one of Kansas' all time greats, but also a player adored by her teammates. Before the game, Settlemier received praise in a senior day speech from junior Nicole Washburn. "If you ever talk to Serena about any of her accomplishments, she always gives credit But Settlemier wasn't the only senior to have an effect on the Jayhawks victory on Sunday. Shortstop Destiny Frankenstein and designated player Heather Stanley had two hits each. Outfielders Ashley Goodrich and Nettie Fierroes also had a hit. The seniors combined for six of Kansas' eight hits and also were responsible for scoring all of the Jayhawks' three runs as Stanley crossed the plate twice and Fierroes once. to her teammates. Instead of seeing her career end injury as what it was, she saw it as a game and won," Washburn said, about Settlemier recovering from surgery to play softball again. "Maybe I knew it was my last time on the field, and I wanted to have a good memory," Stan- lev said. Before the game started seniors Settlemier, Frankenstein, Fierros, Goodrich, Stanley and second baseman Jessica Moppin walked in with their families and received flowers, pictures and short thank-you speeches from their teammates. The honored seniors will go down as being one of the top senior classes in team history. Together, they have combined for 134 home runs, 120 victories and four All Big 12 Team selections. "I'm really proud of them, not just for today, but for their careers," Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said. "This was just a day for the seniors." - Edited by Janiece Gatson SOFTBALL Kansas needs sweep for Big 12 sixth seed BY RYAN SCHNEIDER rschneider@kansan.com KANSAN SENIOR SPORTSWITHER Kansas needed a sweep of Iowa State to secure the sixth seed in the upcoming Big 12 Tournament. The Jayhawks were halfway toward their goal after a 5-0 victory against the Cyclones Saturday. Kansas scored five runs in the bottom of the fifth inning, including a three-run home run from senior second baseman Jessica Moppin. Sophomore right fielder Betsy Wilson reached base on a walk to lead off the fifth inning and pinch runner Ashley Goodrich advanced to second after junior pitcher Kassie Humphreys' sacrifice single. Freshman Val Chapple reached first on an error by Iowa State third baseman Kristy Olsen, advancing Goodrich to third. Goodrich would score off a single by freshman center fielder Stevie Crisosoto. Kansas scored another run to go up 2-0 after senior shortstop Destiny Frankenstein's single scored Chipple. Moppin then hit the home run. The blast went over the left field wall, soared over the fence and ended up on the football practice field up the hill from Arrocha Ballpark. "It was one of the hardest balls I've seen her hit in a long time," Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said. "She obviously was looking for that and got what she was looking for. She got about everything of that thing you could get." Moppin was part of the top of the Jayhawks' order that each recorded a hit in the game. Among Kansas' first five batters, only the usually powerful senior pitcher Serena Settlemier did not record a hit. Humphreys, (14-16), pitched another strong performance, allowing one hit, striking out nine and walking five in the complete seven-inning effort. There were 547 fans and 30 dogs in attendance, as part of Saturday's "Bark in the Park" promotion that allowed fans to bring their dogs to the game. Edited by Janiece Gatson Softball CONTINUED FROM 1B "She's not blowing the ball by anybody, but she's spinning the ball enough," Bunge said. "She's got good movement on the screwball, been throwing the curveball very well recently and she's been mixing in some pretty good rise balls to get people to chase on that." Settlemier also got help from the defense to help preserve her fifth shutout of the season. Senior left fielder Nettie Fierrros led off one of the oddest double plays seen this season with the Cyclones poised to take the momentum. In the fifth inning Fierrros ran into foul territory to make a diving catch to record the out against Bigbee. She then threw the ball to senior second baseman Jessica Moppin who tagged pinch-runner Whitney Perkins for the third out of the inning. The double play ended the Cyclones threat and helped the Jayhawks keep the momentum in the game's final two innings. "That's the best catch I've ever seen Nettie Fierros make in the outfield," Bunge said. "That was a big play at the time, a big momentum changer, when Iowa State could have got something rolling a little bit right there." With the series sweep against Iowa State, Kansas earned a six seed in the upcoming Big 12 Tournament. The Jayhawks will play the third seeded Baylor Bears at 11 a.m. Thursday in Oklahoma City.

SQUARE DAN 4 4 B THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN SPORTS BASEBALL MONDAY, MAY 8, 2006 Texas dominates Kansas in series BY SHAWN SHROYER sshroyer@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER Friday — Texas 7, Kansas 4 Drew Stubbs wasn't the hottest player in the Texas lineup when he stepped to the plate in the seventh inning on Friday. The outfielder was hitless in his last six at-bats. With one swing of the bat, his slump was broken — along with the 3-3 tie. Stubbs's RBI single scored Nick Peoples and put No. 7 Texas ahead 4-3. Texas added three more runs in the game, while Kansas managed just one more and lost 7-4. During the first four innings, it was hard to tell which team was the defending national champions, and which team was fighting to remain in the top half of the Big 12. Kansas gained a two-run lead in the first behind a trio of seniors. A single by Gus Milner knocked in teammates Ritchie Price and Matt Baty. In the meantime, senior right-hander Ricky Fairchild was cruising. Fairchild retired the first six batters he faced and kept the Longhorns off the scoreboard for the first four innings. The fifth inning would mark the beginning of the end for each team's starter. Texas right-hander Kyle McCulloch exited the game after being hit with a line drive with one out in the inning. Texas finally got to Fairchild in the bottom of the inning. A lead off walk by Kyle Russell and timely hitting that followed tied the game, 3-3. Fairchild lasted one out into the sixth inning. Neither starter figured in the decision. The bullpens made the difference in the game. Lefty Kyle Walker and righty Randy Boone came and shut down the Kansas offense, allowing just one run in 4.2 innings. Kansas junior righty Brendan McNamara and freshman righty Paul Smyth came in and surrendered four runs in 2.2 innings. Walker (3-1) notched the victory, McNamara (2-2) got the loss and Boone recorded his first save of the season. Saturday Texas 11 Kansas 4 Sean Land hadn't missed a Friday start since the first weekend of the season, but he found himself relegated to bullpen duty for the Texas series. He entered Saturday's game in relief of freshman pitcher Nick Czyz. With two outs and a run ner in scoring position in the fifth inning. Land ended the inning with a strikeout of Stubbsand then struck out the side in the sixth. Despite Land's efforts, the damage had already been done and more was on the way. After Texas put up four runs on Czyz, who lasted just 3.2 innings in his first career Big 12 start, the Longhorns posted seven more runs to win 11-4. "They're playing, like they're the No. 7 team in the country," Price said. "Their pitching has been fabulous." Control issues led to Czyz's downfall, particularly in the fourth inning. Czyz retired the first two batters of the inning, but then hit two consecutive batters. Texas first baseman Chance Wheeless came to the plate next and drove in both base runners with a double. Czyz came out after that and got the loss, dropping his record to 3-2. Riley Boening was on the hill for Texas and earned the victory to improve his record to 4-1. Boening shut Kansas out for six innings while striking out seven and allowing only three hits. "I thought he was very impressive," Kansas coach Ritch Price said of Bouning. "He's got a very good fastball, obviously, and he continues to improve his command. He's a very special young man." Freshmen Andy Marks and Paul Smyth pitched the eighth inning and gave up two earned runs apiece, plus two unearned runs allowed by Smyth destroyed any hope the Jayhawks had of tying up the series. - Edited by Lindsey Gold MLB Yankees manager gets 1,000th career victory ARLINGTON, Texas — Joe Torre got his 1,000th victory as manager of the Yankees, with Hidei Matsui hitting a three-run homer in an 8-5 victory over the Texas Rangers on Sunday that stretched New York's winning streak to a season-high five games. Torre, who took over for the 1966 season, has a 1,000-645 record with New York, trailing only Joe McCarthy (1,460), Casey Stengel (1,149) and Miller Huguels (1,067). Chien-Ming Wang (2-1) allowed three runs and seven hits in six innings for New York. Robinson Tejeda (1-1) allowed six runs and six hits in three-plus innings. The Rangers have lost their last eight games against the Yankees. The Associated Press Baseball CONTINUED FROM 1B Quick moved the inning along smoothly at first, coaxing the team's first two outs with no harm done. But down to their last out, the Longhorns went on a tear, sending 11 batters to the plate in the bottom of the fourth. Texas followed a Drew Stubbs triple with three consecutive doubles, split up by junior right-hander Brendan McNamara's replacement of Quick. Although McNamara shut out the Longhorns for his 2.1 innings of work, the damage had already been done. Quick was responsible for 10 runs in his shortest outing of the season. His defense pulled less than its weight behind him, as only five of Texas' 11 runs were earned. The rest were because of four Kansas errors, which tied a season high. The Jayhawks will take on Missouri State this Wednesday and continue their break from Big 12 play, and will play host to Quick moved the inning along smoothly at first, coaxing the team's first two outs with no harm done. But down to their last out, the Longhorns went on a tear, sending 11 batters to the plate in the bottom of the fourth. Bradley and Northern Colorado next weekend. Game Notes: Sophomore second baseman Ryne Price entered the game in the bottom of the fifth. He played two innings at second before being lifted for Matt Berner. Price is still not in the batting order while he recovers from his April 14 wrist surgery. Senior closer Don Czyz threw for 1.1 innings to end the game. It was his first appearance since Kansas defeated Oklahoma 7-5 on April 30. - Edited by Lindsey Gold 7 Senior shortstop Ritchie Price catches a throw and sends Texas freshman Preston Clark back to the dugout Sunday in Austin, Texas. The game was called in the eighth inning because of the Big 12 run rule. Kansas lost 11-1.

Prado rode Barbaro to victory in the Kentucky Derby Saturday. Triple Crown talk already begins BY RICHARD ROSENBATT THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Trainer Michael Matz was holding court outside his barn, his Kentucky Derby winner Barbaro just a few yards away munching grass. Barely 12 hours after Barbaro become just the sixth undefeated Derby winner, Triple Crown talk filled the air. It happens every Sunday after the first Saturday in May, when hopes are high in thoroughbred racing that a superstar has arrived to revive the sport. "You always want to have a horse you can say can win the Triple Crown," Matz said. "We think this is a terrific horse with tremendous ability. If I told you I didn't think in the long haul that we'd have a Triple Crown winner I'd be lying to you." "We'll try to keep him at this Matz has been confident level for the next two races and hopefully he'll become a famous horse." Michael Matz Barbaro's trainer about his dark bay colt since the start. After three victories on the turf, Barbaro was moved to the dirt and never flinched. In the Derby, he polished off 19 rivals and won by 6 1/2 lengths — the largest margin since 1946 Triple Crown winner Assault won by eight lengths. It's been 28 years since Affirmed became the last Triple Crown champion, and if Barbaro wins the Preakness in two weeks it would set the stage for a fourth Triple try in the past five years. The most recent was perhaps the most heartbreaking, when Smarty Jones lost to Birdstone in the final yards of the 2004 Belmont. Barbaro, now 6-for-6, came out of the Derby in great shape. Exercise rider Peter Brette told the trainer Barbaro was feeling so good "you could enter him again tomorrow." Matz said Barbaro was leaving Churchill Downs later Sunday and would arrive at his home barn in Fair Hill, Md., early Monday after a 12-hour van trip. Pimlico is just 60 miles away. "We'll try to keep him at this level for the next two races and hopefully he'll become a famous horse," Matz said. "All we can do is try our best and hopefully he'll help us out." NBA Barbaro, who gave Edgar Prado his first Derby win, will go against several familiar faces from the Derby in the 1 3-16-mile Preakness. Pistons throttle Cavs James scoreless in second half; Prince scores 24 BY LARRY LAGE THE ASSOCIATED PRESS AUBURN HILLS, Mich. — The Detroit Pistons had LeBron James seeing triple — as in three pointers and three defenders. The Pistons made 10 shots from beyond the arc in the first half — one shy of an NBA playoff record — to open up a 21-point lead at halftime before cruising to a 113-86 victory against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Sunday in Game 1 of their second-round series. James scored all of his 22 points in the first half, but had to work for each one. Triple-teamed at times, James was forced to take tough shots or defer to teammates who didn't respond by making shots of their own. The 21-year-old star didn't play in the fourth quarter after he was held scoreless in the third and the Pistons led 94-64. Tyshaun Prince made James work on defense, too, scoring 16 of his 24 points in the first half. The two-time defending Eastern Conference champions turned the game into a rout with a franchise playoff-record 43 points in the second quarter against a team in the second round for the first time since 1993. Detroit also set its postseason record with 15 three-pointers, on 22 attempts. figure scorers in the first half alone, including reserves Antonio McDyess and Lindsey Hunter. Both had 12 at halftime — outscoring every Cavs player not named Iames. Richard Hamilton scored 20; Chauncey Billups had 14 points and 10 assists and Rasheed Wallace added 10 points and seven rebounds. Ben Wallace, the NBA Defensive Player of the Year according to an Associated Press source, had 11 rebounds and four blocks for the Pistons. Cleveland's Zydrunas Iglauskas had 14 points after a poor series against Washington in the first round. The Cavs, who didn't have a third double-digit scorer until the fourth quarter, got 11 points from Anderson Varejao. The Cavs played about 40 hours after their Game 6 win at Washington in overtime, flying home and then to suburban Detroit. Meanwhile, the Pistons had a day off and two days of practices after eliminating Milwaukee in five games. The Pistons had four double- The Cavs began the game with some fight, leading 12-7 and being tied late in the first quarter. Detroit went on a 10-0 run over the last 1:57 of the first half — helped by James' two turnovers — to take a 26-16 lead. Cleveland was still hanging around, by NBA standards, trailing by 14 until the Pistons closed another quarter in dominating fashion. Hunter made three three-pointers in just under a minute and McDyess closed the 11-4 run to put the Pistons ahead 69-48 at halftime. The Pistons went up 32 in the third quarter and took out their starters midway through the fourth. Notes: Ben Wallace won the defensive award for the fourth time in five years, a person within the Pistons organization told the AP before the game started. The source, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the award has not been announced, said Wallace will be presented with the award Tuesday night. James played his first secondround game in the same place he made his pro debut on Oct. 7, 2003, in an exhibition game against the Pistons. Detroit's previous playoff record was 12 three-pointers, a total reached twice in 2002 against Boston. Four teams have made 11 three-pointers in one half of a playoff game. James finished second to Phoenix's Steve Nash in the MVP voting and Billups was fifth. Kid Rock sat courtside, sporting a black Pistons jersey, shorts and white socks pulled up to his knees. Soccer CONTINUED FROM 1B the current players view the increase to the roster with mixed feelings. "We've had walk-ons start for us before," Francis said. "We are going to play the best players." While Francis and the Athletics Department seem to be in agreement that the extension of the roster will improve the soccer team, and some of "It could be difficult to develop chemistry with all the new players, but I think it will push us all to do well everyday." Colleen Quinn, sophomore goalkeeper, said. Francis said the four new players would be walk-ons and would not receive any scholarship money. Also, he recommended anyone who attended tryouts to be in good shape, because the tryout will consist of playing soccer and a fitness test.

GOLF GOLF Bryant wins second tournament this year HOOVER, Ala. — With Brad Bryant's terrific shots and Mark McNulty's costly blunders, the Regions Charity Classic took a dramatic twist at the end. Bryant turned a three-stroke deficit into a two-shot victory over the final three holes Sunday, finishing with an 8-under 64 to take full advantage of McNulty's two shots into the water. "The ending was some-what bittersweet," Bryant said. "I certainly did not expect Mark to hit a ball in the water, let alone hit it in the water twice. That's very unusual. He's such a great player. On the other hand, I just hit great shots." Two shots in particular helped give Bryant his second Champions Tour victory of the year and a $240,000 payday with his 17-under 199 total. McNulty, who had a three-stroke lead through 15 holes, sent his second shot into the water on No.17 for the second straight day and made a double bogey. That left an opening for Bryant, who used a 3-iron to hit a near-perfect, 219-yard approach and set up a nearly 4-foot birdie putt for a one-stroke edge. On the previous hole, he hit a 5-iron 209 yards to set up a 3-foot eagle putt. Bryant called those swings "quite possibly the best shots I've ever hit in my life" —The Associated Press WOMEN'S GOLF Kerr erases big lead to win BY TERESA M. WALKER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS FRANKLIN, Tenn. — Cristie Kerr thought all week she would leave here a winner. Then she started Sunday with what she called a magical shot, a 50-foot putt from the fringe that went up and over a ridge and into the hole for birdie. "That was one of the best putts under pressure that I've hit in a long time, and it went in unbelievable." Kerr said. With that start, Kerr overcame a four-stroke deficit to win her seventh LPGA Tour title, closing with a 5-under 67 for a two-stroke victory over Lorena Ochoa, Pat Hurst and Angela Stanford in the Franklin American Mortgage Championship. Kerr had five birdies in her bogy-free round to finish with a tournament-record 19-under 269 total on the Vanderbilt Legends Club's Ironhorse Course. Kerr broke the mark of 17 under set by Annika Sorenstam in 2002, and matched the lowest score on tour this year, Ochoa's 19 under in the 54-hole Takefuji Classic. Kerr also became only the second American winner through nine events this year, joining Juli Inkster — the Safeway champion in March. "It feels absolutely great, and there's going to be many more," Kerr said. "We've got a lot of talented Americans, and everybody out here, it's so competitive out here I can't tell you." Ochoa, the tour money leader who won here in 2004, had three straight birdies to pull within two of Kerr.

The center, which will be constructed this year, will promote multiculturalism on campus. Shovels mark the start Ceremony celebrates onset of construction BY NICOLE KELLEY nkelley@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Eight golden shovels sunk into the grassy hill between the Kansas Union and its parking garage Monday afternoon as part of the official ground breaking ceremony of the new Sabatini Multicultural Resource Center. The new center will replace the current facility's location in the old Military Science annex. An increase in programming and the MRC's larger presence on campus necessitated the new building. "The future of the United States and of Kansas is to embrace the diversity we have," said Dan Sabatini, the son of the building's donor and namesake, Frank Sabatini. "This is our future and that is our strength." The Sabitini family donated $1 million to the center. Dan said he wanted to thank the students and the University on behalf of his family for the opportunity to be a part of the project. The new center will replace the current facility's location in the old Military Science annex. An increase in programming and the MRC's larger presence on campus necessitated the new building. Construction will begin in the fall and should be completed by the following fall. The new facility will offer updated technology, more study and lounge areas, as well as more space for student organizations to hold programs. In his opening remarks, Chancellor Robert Hemenway said the new facility was the result of a shared vision that would help students find new opportunities on campus. He gave credit to the students who voted in 2003 to increase their student fees as a supplement to the private donation.

Record company sours, sues over apple logo LONDON — A long and winding legal road took another twist for the Beatles' record company Monday, when a British judge ruled that Apple Computer Inc. is entitled to use the apple logo on its iTunes Music Store. Apple Corps, the guardian of the Beatles' commercial interests, contended that the U.S. company's use of the logo on its popular online music store had broken a 1991 agreement in which each side agreed not to enter into the other's field of business. But High Court Judge Anthony Mann disagreed, saying that the computer company's logo is used in association with the store - not the music and so did not breach the agreement. Though Apple Computer CEO Steve Jobs said he was "glad to put this disagreement behind us", the dispute appears far from over. Neil Aspinall, the manager of Apple Corps, said his company would immediately take the case to Britain's Court of Appeal.

After completing a sketch, Zacharias moves on to making wax molds of his jewelry designs. SANDRA BLANCHER Photos by Carly Pearson/KANSAN Peter Zacharies reaches for a coin in a display case at Goldmakers in downtown Lawrence. Coins, venetian glass and pearls are a few of the items he sells at his shop. Golden CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A When she opened the box on her birthday and saw Zacharias' creation, Amber recalls gasping out loud at the beauty of what she saw — a silver beetle wrapping itself around a rich gold amber stone — a stone that seemed to glow on its own. "It was totally stunning," she said. She soon discovered that it did glow on its own, courtesy of an LED battery Zacharias had cleverly concealed between the beetle and stone, complete with a tiny on-off switch. Zacharias' journey to become an old-fashioned jeweler, who designs and makes much of what he sells in his Lawrence store, began when he immigrated with his family from the old world, Germany, to Kansas at the age of three. That journey included a plan to attend medical school and become a doctor like his father, which ended when he discovered his aversion to blood. Plan B was a major in jewelry at the University of Kansas, where he was swept up in the anti-war movement and, in his own words, became a hippie, traveling to San Francisco, where he opened a jewelry business. When an oil embargo and high gas prices hit the tourist industry and his jewelry business in California, he headed back to Kansas where he operated his successful business and became a political activist and outspoken supporter of a clean and lively downtown Lawrence, a devoted father and a regular traveler to Germany where, perhaps in a bow to his hippie days, he once urinated on the Berlin Wall and later brought a souvenir hunk of it home to his adopted country. The Old and New Worlds Art has been in his family since his great-grandfather, Karl Wilhelm DeBryker, who was the "stadtmahler," German for city painter, in Hamburg. For 20 years, he did all the official portraits for the city. Zacharias said his great-grandfather "did what we called gothic-romantic art and that was extremely out of favor for the Nazis. He couldn't sell his paintings anymore because heroic art was in." The artistic tradition was carried down to Zacharias' father. Although his father loved the arts, he attended and made his living as a doctor during World War II. After the war, his father learned that doctors were needed in western Kansas, which had a population that was about 60 percent ethnic German. It seemed like a good place to live, so the family came to Kansas. They came in 1953 when Zacharias was three, so he doesn't remember much of Germany, but recalled the families' living conditions. "We grew up in the remnants of a burned-out building," he said. "We had the living room. There were six families living in a six-room house. Each family had a different room. "I was born on the living room couch, which was sad because they had to throw away the couch after that," he said, laughing. "So when we had the chance to come to America and not live in the ruins anymore, it was a good idea. Plus we had a lot of kindred feelings toward the Americans." His father did his internship at St. Francis Hospital in Wichita, where Zacharias attended elementary school. In 1958, the family moved to Dodge City, where Zacharias completed junior high and high school. He graduated in 1968 and came to the University. He spent summers going back and forth between Dodge City and Germany. At the University, Zacharias was supposed to become a doctor, but he had one slight problem: blood. "I'm too squeamish for it," he said. Becoming a Jeweler Zacharias also learned he had a nervous disorder that made him black out. His advisor recommended that he take a jewelry class as relaxation therapy, although he didn't yet see it as a career. He said, "We were always taught in Dodge that there was no way you could make a living at art." Zacharias began selling crafts he created, including leather candles, jewelry and big furry purses he refers to as "Sonny and Cher purses." Although the plan was for him to go to medical school he said it just didn't fit with the counter-culture attitude of the times or his aversion to blood. Just as he began down that career path, the "days of rage" exploded at the University, and his career was put on hold. Students took over buildings, the Kansas Union was burned down and he joined anti-Vietnam War protests, once getting clubbed by a policeman, he recalled. "I decided to go into the crafts," he said. "I always liked making stuff with my hands and designing stuff and solving problems." When the jewelry professor who served as his mentor left, he decided to leave too, finishing the six hours he needed at the University of Utah. Since the University gave him credit for those hours, he earned his KU degree in jewelry. In Utah, he met his former wife and worked for a jewelry company. "I was their 'Pearl Guy.' I bought pearls, stringed pearls, graded pearls, found guys to do diamonds with pearls. Working with pearls was always considered a little feminine, but I like pearls." he said, smiling. His wife, also an artist, helped her husband open a business called Easy Street Gallery in Salt Lake City. Peter did fine until the oil embargo hit, "Gas prices skyrocketed and the rationing just killed tourism," he said. "Sales within 90 days dropped by 80 percent. It's like cutting the junkies off from heroine, cutting off California from its gasoline. It was an incredible drop in business." They moved to the San Francisco Bay Area in the early 1970s and got into the wholesale business. Zacharias created hand-made jewelry in his shop, Stars is Nar. "Nar" is the German word for sausages his family used to crave when he was younger. He also made jewelry for galleries in Sausalito and Stetson Beach. The couple moved to Kansas and opened a downtown shop in Topeka. When a suburban mall opened and put many of the shops out of business, Zacharias opened his first Lawrence shop on Eighth Street. He called it Stars is Nar and later Stars and Our Jewels. He moved to his current location at 723 Massachusetts St. in 1982. Zacharias said it was a "dump" when he bought it and later renovated it with a 1880s style. Back to Kansas The new store was called Goldmakers after one of the galleries he once supplied in Salt Lake City, where he began designing unique pieces like the amber necklace made for Amber. He takes pride in the fact that it is not just an amber gem Pleasing customers like the Williams isn't always easy, Zacharias said, recalling when he was in California and making Indian jewelry for Native Americans based on their designs. "My first shipment of Indian jewelry I delivered to the Indian guy in Sausalito and he said, 'Oh, these won't do at all.' And I said, 'What's wrong? I did a wonderful job.' And he said, 'Yeah, that's the problem.' He went out into the parking lot and dumped my whole tray of jewelry into the parking lot and walked on them. Then he took the turquoise rings back up and said, 'Okay, now they look like Indian jewelry.' They were just too well executed. The guy was great though, and I liked him." on a silver chain. He called the stone "museum quality" rather than one mass-produced by a manufacturer. Amber said that it was a true fossil because ancient insects can still be seen trapped in translucent gold resin, including a tiny spider. Through all of his locations and shop names, Zacharias remains the finicky jeweler. "I'm a designer and craftsmen and I carve wax models," he said. "Originally I did everything, stone cutting, wax modeling, siding, but now I have 10 people working for me." Ardys Ramberg, wax carver and salesperson, first worked for him from 1976 to 1991, and returned in 1998. "It's really nice when you run into someone on the street or at a party and the person flashes a ring at you, and says, 'Oh, you did my ring.' Or one time I was sitting by this woman at a wedding and I recognized her ring and I said, 'I know who made your ring.' And she said, 'I got it at Goldmakers.' I quickly answered, 'I know,' Ramberg said. Zacharias said custom tastes had turned more conservative and in the past five years, he had done mostly traditional diamond work. He has always been interested in art history and enjoys making art nouveau, art deco, Italian Renaissance, Hellenistic Greek and Imperial Roman pieces. He has a knack for finding the particular style customers want, he said. Even though he gets fewer requests these days for custom pieces, Lawrence is where he wants to be. "Lawrence is definitely the hippest place in the Midwest," he said. "In California, people are more liberal this is true, but they are not any more sophisticated. I just could never get ahead there. I would make money, but to own my own building, own my own business, it's impossible. Here, at least it's still doable." Zacharias has also enjoyed getting involved in Lawrence politics. He campaigned for union rights for trash haulers, argued for preservation of historical downtown buildings and fought for more landscaping and trees downtown. "I'm at City Hall a lot," he said. He has complained about the homeless being downtown, urinating on his store front and hanging out on the roof. He wants a shelter away from downtown where people have to sign in so that their progress can be monitored. He said that with anonymous shelters where any homeless person could walk in unregistered, their life slipped through the cracks because no one was monitoring their problems. Life Outside of Jewelry Zacharias and his wife were divorced 10 years ago, but share joint custody of their three children. Jake, 18, is a senior at Lawrence Free State High School. The two older children followed in their father's footsteps and currently attend the University. Nicholas, 21, is a junior and Bernadette, 24, and will graduate in the spring. Although Peter is close to all three, he said he has a special relationship with his daughter. When she was in elementary school, Zacharias would take her out of school each year for a day to go to art shows or a museum. "He was so cute about it," she said, thinking back to how excited she used to get. "We would go to the Nelson Museum in Kansas City and look at their various collections." Bernadette also has worked at Goldmakers for eight years, helping with small repairs, designing and helping the customers. She had the opportunity to travel once a year with her father to buy jewelry in New York, Philadelphia and San Francisco. Like her father, she loves jewelry. "We're really close and get along really well," she said. "These days we work together more as friends rather than a father daughter relationship. We have a strong professional relationship." Zacharias now lives with his girlfriend, an architect who was introduced to him by his gemcarving assistant, who is also her niece. "We hit it off pretty quick." Zacharias said. "I'm not getting married again. First time I barely made it through with my business. Number one small business failure is divorce. She's a wonderful lady, but I don't know if I want to be exposed to that with America's current laws." Zacharias and his girlfriend live in a Victorian house on Louisiana Street, only two blocks from his shop downtown. He bought it from his one-time English professor in 1976, and attended his first house party there in college in 1968. The home is filled with various paintings and artwork from his father and great-grandfather as well as other art collected over the years. An old-fashioned jewelry shop like Goldmakers is unusual today. Customers who wander through the store find Peter busily working or assisting people at his small desk towards the back of the shop. He is usually dressed in corduroy pants (never jeans), patterned shirts, a navy blue apron, leather shoes and juggling three different pairs of glasses with various focal points. He is still able to do all the things he loves, including visiting Germany every few years. One visit was to the Berlin Wall shortly after it came down. Depending on what he's working on, a magnifying glass is used to ensure details are done correctly. "I have my own chunk of the wall at home and of course whizzed on it at the time, and it felt great," he said. He never forgets where he came from and continues to focus on creating precious art objects for the public eye, just as his father and great-grandfather did in Germany.

Edited by Gabriella Souza 4A THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN NEWS TUESDAY, MAY 9. 2006 SPEAKER Attorney General Kline bemoans state of the law Amanda Sellers/KANSAN Kansas Attorney General Phill Kline gestures to the audience during his speech at the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics on Monday night. Kline spoke specifically about his relationship with the business community. The event was co-sponsored the KU College Republicans. BY ANNE WELTMER aweltmer@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Phill Kline said he firmly believed in the principle of self-responsibility in lawsuits Monday night, claiming that many are wrongfully won today. Kline, the Kansas attorney general, said in a speech at the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics that when he was in law school at the University of Kansas, he learned that a successful suit had to prove the defendant had the ability to cause harm, actually did cause harm, and the damages caused could be defined monetarily. Of those three "pillars of juris prudence," he said "none of them have to be proven today" in order to win a case. He said the current problem was that courts, the media and citizens all relied on the concept of "fairness," rather than the law, and fairness could be different for each person. He said that the Constitution was fair and the law it established should be followed, rather than the morals of individual idees. He said that as a result people could pick and choose where they would bring a lawsuit — and find a judge with similar beliefs. Kline said he didn't believe it was right for the government to sue on behalf of individuals and keep the money for itself. For example, the government sued tobacco companies, but the cancer victims didn't receive the damages because they were dead. The government kept the money. During his time as attorney general, Kline said he was careful not to use "press release litigation" to scare companies into settling so their stock values were not affected by accusations that might be true. "When corporate America violates the law, I'm in their face," he said. He said he sued an oil conglomerate for intentionally overestimating its oil reserves to raise the value of its stock, which hurt the stockholders. If he had told the public he was investigating before he was sure the company had done wrong, he would have hurt the stockholders anyway because the company's credibility would have been hurt no matter what. He said he tried to protect the elderly, "trusting" people of Kansas from scams and tried to keep the state from overregulating professions. He said the government should provide more opportunities for a selfmade man to start his own business without so much hassle and money that it's nearly impossible. Lennea Carty, Andover junior, reacted to his speech by saying she thought he was misrepresenting his work in office. "There's so much he twisted," she said. "He didn't put things into realistic economic perspective." She said he made it sound like he was protecting the poor, but in reality he was favoring the rich and hurting the small towns in Kansas with his actions. She said when she drives through Kansas, is seems each small town has a Wal-Mart now, which she said has destroyed the local businesses that Kline talked about protecting in his speech. with fewer scheduling conflicts.

She said more organizations would be able to use the center "It shows that the University is committed to diversity and multiculturalism," Landrum said. Landrum said that having the center connected to the Kansas Union would allow more students to walk in and learn about the center. She said the center was open to all students, not just ones of color, and that it was beneficial for students to be exposed to other people and different issues. - Edited by Gabriella Souza Homeless CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A Even though the Salvation Army is moving away from downtown, Dalberg doesn't think this will be a problem. "The program has switched to moving people out of homeless and becoming housed and permanently housed." "The program we're going to operate is different than it is now," he said. "The people in the program will not be the people in downtown currently. It won't necessarily be the single men hanging around downtown." For the rehabilitative program, Dennis Stine, a homeless For the rehabilitative program, Dennis Stine, a homeless man, said he would have to see it first before he could believe it. man, said he would have to see it first before he could believe it. "We need to be taught math, Internet skills, learn how to read," he said. "Even if you want to work at a pizza shop, you need to know computer skills these days. They need to pick up where some of these people left off, which could be ages 13 or 14." But some of the homeless are unhappy about it moving away from downtown. "Downtown is the hub for where it's at for the homeless," said Guitar Dave, who wishes to keep his last name anonymous. He said places like Jubilee Café, the drop-in center and LINK were all a part of the downtown area. Junice Café serves breakfast for the homeless at the First United Methodist Church, 946 Vermont St., twice a week. LINK, Lawrence Interdenominational Nutrition Kitchen, is open every Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday for lunch. It is located in the basement of First Christian Church, 1000 Kentucky St. The Community Drop-In Center is at 214 10th St. Paul Shipley, co-coordinator of the Center for Community Outreach and Olathe junior, said there was a possibility that numbers would go down, but he said moving the Salvation Army was a good idea especially since "it's ridiculously small for a town like Lawrence." Shipley could see transportation problems for the homeless to make it to Jubilee Café every Tuesday and Friday mornings at 7 a.m. He said they currently served a lot of homeless people in the mornings. But Dalberg said that a homeless person would have no need to come out to the Salvation Army unless he or she was in the program. The Salvation Army will not be designed to house someone for only one night. He said things were going to be completely different. Because of limited space at the corner where it's currently located creates a problem for extending it though, which is one of the reasons the Salvation Army wants to move. There's just not enough space for all the programs we offer and want to offer, Dalberg said. "Women and children have no business being out on the streets," Stine said. "They should be taken care of no matter what. Most of them do not become homeless because of something they did. Guys like us are typically responsible for why we have become homeless." Guitar Dave and Stine both agreed there needs to be space for the homeless families. Taking care of families is one of the focuses for the new site. "There's a huge gap in services to homeless families and no one is doing anything for them so we hope to fill that void because right now they have no place to go," Dalberg said. — Edited by Vanessa Pearson Seniors: Don’t miss it.

"I think the president will do what he thinks is best," regardless of public opinion or the fall elections, Rice said in an interview with The Associated Press. Bush is at his lowest point in the polls, with only one-third of Americans saying they approve of the way he is handling the job, and the three-year-old Iraq war is a major reason for his decline. Bush is at his lowest point in the polls, with only one-third of Americans saying they approve of the way he is handling the job, and the three-year-old Iraq war is a major reason for his decline. Republicans are expected to suffer in congressional elections in November in part because of an erosion of support for the notion that the president's political party is best equipped to handle the fight against terrorism and other foreign policy matters. "This is an extraordinary time," Rice said. "It means taking difficult decisions and doing what's right because you're not doing it for the midterm elections." "You're doing it for the standing of the United States and the ability of the United States to influence well into the future and the future of the Middle East," Rice said. The Bush administration sees a stable democracy in Iraq as the linchpin to spread political freedom elsewhere in the region. invasion have dimmed some of Iraq's political gains, but Rice said newly selected leaders understand the consequence of failure. Continued insurgent and sectarian violence more than three years after the U.S.-led "They literally will hang separately or hang together. Literally," Rice said. "There is no stronger incentive to get it right." Violence killed at least 34 people including a U.S. soldier in Iraq on Monday, as efforts to finish choosing the new Cabinet bogged down in a web of 'conflicting interests. Bush has been straightforward with the public that 'we're going to have to be in this war for awhile," Rice said of the struggle against terrorism in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere. "I think Americans just want to know that progress is being made, and I know that it's hard sometimes when Americans see what's on their television screens." Rice said. The top U.S. diplomat offered no updated timetable for U.S. force withdrawals below the current level of about 130,000, although other U.S. officials have said they expect some reduction this year. WORLD Moussaoui says he lied about plot BY MICHAEL J. SNIFFEN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS ALEXANDRIA, Va. — Convicted Sept. 11 conspirator Zacarias Moussaoui says he lied on the witness stand about being involved in the terrorist plot and wants to withdraw his guilty plea and go to trial. The judge turned him down. Moussaoui said he was "extremely surprised" that he was sentenced to life in prison instead of execution and now believes he can get a fair trial from an American jury. In a motion filed Monday, Moussaoui said he testified on March 27 that he was supposed to hijack a fifth plane on Sept. 11, 2001, and fly it into the White House "even though I knew that was a complete fabrication." A federal court jury spared the 37-year-old Frenchman the death penalty last Wednesday. On Thursday, U.S. District Judge Leonie Brinkema gave him six life sentences, to run as two consecutive life terms, in the federal supermax prison at Florence, Colo. As she handed down the sentence, Brinkema told Moussaoui that he could appeal the life term but that she doubted he would win. "I believe it would an act of futility," she said. The judge also pointed out that, although he could appeal the sentence, he had lost his right to appeal his conviction when he pled guilty in April 2005. "You now see that it is possible that I can receive a fair trial even with Americans as jurors." Zacarias Moussaoui Convicted Sept. 11 conspirator waived that right," she said. On Monday, Brinkema said his request to set aside his guilty plea and go back to trial on the facts of the case was "too late" under federal rules and must be rejected. Explaining his latest reversal, Moussaoul said in an affidavit: "I had thought I would be sentenced to death based on the emotions and anger toward me for the deaths on Sept. 11. But after reviewing the jury verdict and reading how the jurors set aside their emotions and disgust for me and focused on the law and the evidence ... I now see that it is possible that I can receive a fair trial even with Americans as jurors." The defense lawyers were not immediately available for comment Monday. Brinkema said they would be replaced after they filed any appeal Moussaoui might want. The motion said Moussaoui told his lawyers Friday that he wanted to withdraw his guilty plea because when he entered it his "understanding of the American legal system was completely flawed."

The drawing, now autographed by Buffett, is being auctioned on eBav at a $10,000 minimum bid to renovate the gallery where Meigs' art is on display. The auction ends at 10 tonight. Connor CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A The Florence Mill is a historical site that was built in 1846 and has now been transformed into a non-profit art gallery that houses Connor's work. The site needs $250,000 to complete its renovation. The Florence Mill now features more than 50 pieces of artwork from Connor and will present an exhibition of his work during the summer. The KU hockey club team traveled to the mill after a game against the University of Nebraska this year. The team visited on Feb. 25; coincidentally that would have been Connor's 21st birthday. Mark Quinn knew Connor for six years before they were teammates on the hockey team. Quinn, Omaha sophomore, said Connor was a friend who was dedicated to hockey, family and his artwork. The family has also created the Connor Meigs Award, which will be given annually to an outstanding recent art student graduate. The recipient will have a solo exhibit in the mill, and the first scheduled exhibit will take place in May 2007. If they are not successful in receiving bids for the autographed drawing, the family plans to have the artwork remain with the family. The outcome of the auction will not bother the family, Linda Meigs said. "If a pretzel in the shape of Madonna can go for $10,000, then this picture should have some permanent value," she said. "This auction is a collaboration of angels — between Connor, wherever he is, and Mr. Buffett, who is right down the street."

Graduation can be one of the most humbling times in one's life for either type of person. When else will you go from a comfortable environment filled with friends, contacts and activities to an unknown future filled with doubt? Then add the job search, where the last four years — or five for some — of your life are written out on a single piece of paper that allows strangers to judge whether they want to speak with you. Those who haven't secured some sort of employment should take heart and remember that if that moron from your English class can get a job, so can you. Just follow a few basics. First, treat a job search like it is one, because a lot of time and effort are involved in just putting your name out there. Second, use whatever contacts you have because that is the most effective way to get your foot in the door. Third, be patient. Often times it takes employers many days or weeks to get back to applicants. Don't forget, however, to follow up and be persistent in showing interest. Oh, and in an interview, Issue: The inevitable search for post-graduation employment Stance: Stay patient. You won't live on your parents' couch forever. when they ask you, "Tell me about yourself," don't tell them your life story. All they want is information that pertains to your qualifications and experience. For the KU population that is not graduating, thinking about jobs after college is always a good idea. There are so many ways to make yourself appealing to employers right now by getting involved in activities that pertain to what you want to do later on. To be honest, classes aren't enough when it comes to preparing for the real world. Any graduate can tell you there exists something of a difference between what you are taught and what you actually do at your job. Obviously, nothing can substitute for formal instruction, but a healthy dose of reality and hands-on experience doesn't hurt.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Tolerant discussion needed in debate After spending four years on a campus that I happen to love, I have suffered through countless op-ed columns from students that are just irritating. I personally am a conservative, which obviously puts me in the minority at the University, and that isn't something that I have a problem with because I honestly don't care how anybody else sees that or even what anyone else personally thinks. I guess I'm somewhat apathetic that way. That doesn't seem to be a typical view, however, and 99 percent of the time it makes it impossible to have a rational political discussion in college without getting sweeping generalizations about either side that make it impossible to go anywhere productive. A case in point would be a guest column in The University Daily Kansan about the anti-abortion movement. I am anti-abortion because of my own beliefs, and I don't force that on anyone. If you want to know what I believe, then ask me because I'm not going to be parading it around. I was surprised to find out that I'm a hypocrite because of that, and also to know that the entire anti-abortion movement is based around fire-bombing abortion clinics and shooting doctors who practice abortion. There are people in every area of life that are crazy, and it doesn't take much looking to find them. I don't think that even a tiny fraction of real anti-abortion supporters condone these tactics. It is ridiculous to think that because some people in the "movement" somehow think killing will solve the problem, it is all right to generalize that everyone else somehow allows it. I would never allow that to happen if it was in my power to stop it, but I suppose that just puts me in the minority. That's no different from saying that every Christian is a big because they are "allowing" Fred Phelps to operate and spread his absurd beliefs. Every day we hear "tolerance" and "we need to be tolerant of other people's views." It seems to me that it's not too tolerant to equate an entire group with the acts of a radical few. Many of us here have entirely different belief systems and backgrounds, and it's stupid to bash on any of them or make unnecessary generalizations. It benefits no one and just makes everything more contentious. Abortion is not an issue that has a middle ground, and that tends to make any argument or discussion about it devolve into name-calling and posturing, no matter what the original intentions were. It would be nice to not be labeled an ignorant hypocrite because of what I believe. I like to think that I'm not too backwards in my ways and it just bothers me that there seems to be license to label people as a whole like that, which is ignorant itself. Now, I've got to get back to that memo to the rest of the anti-abortioners out there, the body of which is: I think we forgot that we aren't supposed to kill abortion rights supporters. Somebody might want to get on that and stop "allowing" it to happen.

Thousands upon thousands of hours are invested in community service, and many members are involved in a variety of different organizations at the University. COMMENTARY What people seem to forget is that the original purpose of greek life was to take young college students and help shape them into respected and involved members of society. The greek community stresses scholarship, leadership, brotherhood/sisterhood and service as core values that each member should strive for. Yet, for some reason, a few isolated instances of binge drinking at different universities around the country have created a negative, stereotypical image of the community as a whole. I for one am proud to be a member of KU's greek community because I feel that it is one of the best in the country and contributes so much to campus and the local community. I just wish that those who feel the need to reinforce the negative stereotypes of the Greeks would come to realize just how much more we really are and would be kind enough to respect us for it. Wittler is a Wichita freshman in journalism and political science. I started to realize it when my history professor, after finding out that I was in a fraternity, asked me if I happened to know how many gallons were in a pony keg. It became even more clear during Student Senate elections when several people in my political science class described the Ignite coalition as simply "an organization thrown together by all the greek kids so that they could get a party bus to drive them between the bars on the weekend." I've heard all the nicknames for every house on campus and every joke imaginable about fratters and sorority girls. But what I rarely hear is praise and admiration for the many accomplishments of those within fraternities and sororites. The fact is, the Greek community is stereotyped as a bunch of idiotic alcoholics, and it is an image that does not reflect the truth of Greek life. The Interfraternal Council (IFC) and the Panhellenic Association (PHA) hosted their annual awards ceremony on April 30. That night, a variety of fraternities and sororites were recognized for their scholarship, service to the community and overall chapter excellence. It is one of the few nights that the Greek community actually receives praise for its work, especially those involved in the IFC and Panhellenic Association. Praveen Kumar While they are a highly involved and integral part of the University, the IFC and PHA often go unnoticed for the vast JACOB WITTLER opinion@kansan.com amounts of work that they do. One of their major accomplishments has been Project SAFE-watch. The group has worked with the provost's office, Lawrence-Douglas County Fire and Medical, Watkins Health Center and the KU Public Safety Office to help increase safety awareness in the community. This year, the group got about 100 members of the greek community certified in CPR training and also provided a fire safety course. The IFC and PHA also head up the "Check Yourself Before You Wreck Yourself" campaign, which teaches greek students about the dangers of alcohol and the precautions that should be taken with it. According to IFC president Scott Ferguson, IFC is going to try to open up the program to all KU students in the fall These are only a few of the many things these organizations accomplish, and they are not the only Greek students involved in the community. Every year, the philanthropies put on by each chapter raise thousands of dollars for both local and national charitable organizations.

SUBMISSIONS COMMENTARY Keeping your cramming healthy LAURENCE M. KITCHEN ABBY CARTER opinion@kansan.com It's that time of year again —time for late night cramming and pizza eating. Finals are creeping up and, unfortunately, most people hold off on the studying until the night before an exam. This calls for an overload of caffeine, junk food and headaches. There has got to be a better way. It's too late to change your old habits of skipping class and text messaging the whole time when you do attend, but you can still prepare to be more healthy for finals. Organization is key to doing anything successful. According to mind-tools.com, performance planning works wonders to reduce stress. You can plan ahead and make a checklist of things to remember for finals. You can also stock up on healthy snacks to increase alertness. Stuffing pizza in your face at 3 a.m. isn't going to make you feel better the next day. If anything, it will make you tired from all the unnecessary calories. Eating snacks such as almonds, an apple with peanut butter or a turkey sandwich with avocado will satisfy your hunger without making you want to fall asleep. Almonds, peanut butter and avocados all have healthy fats that will give you the brain food you need to concentrate and study efficiently. Drinking lots of water also helps. Water hydrates you, helps your complexion and keeps you more alert. By the time you're thirsty, you're already dehydrated. So, drink water instead of sugary drinks like pop, flavored drinks or coffee. They will only make you jittery and unable to concentrate. Many people think they need caffeine to stay alert, but most of the time a change of pace will do the trick. Incorporate some type of exercise to increase your alertness. Do some push ups, sit ups, jump rope or just make up some type of exercise. This increases your serotonin levels, which puts you in a better mood. It's also good to get up from studying and stretch your muscles. Another thing that will help you study is planning a break and actually working out. Relaxation also plays a significant role in reducing stress. Take a deep breath randomly while you are studying to get oxygen to your brain. Even better, take a yoga class. There is no better way to achieve a mind-body connection than yoga. Yoga classes are extremely popular at the re center and are no longer only female dominated. There is a surprising number of men that have realized the positive effects of yoga. So, whether you're a guy or a girl, a yoga class is the perfect solution to relaxation before a tough week of finals. Drink plenty of water, eat healthy snacks and exercise, and your cramming sessions will be much more enjoyable. Carter is a Shawnee sophomore in health, sport and exercise science.

Magician David Blaine, 33, left, submerged in an 8-foot acrylic sphere filled with water, presses his fingers against the sphere simultaneously with those of a well-wisher at Lincoln Center in New York on Monday. Blaine, wearing a diving helmet, has spent almost a week in an aquarium shirtless and plans to end the stunt tonight by holding his breath under water longer than 8 minutes, 58 seconds. Blaine refuses to surface BY PAT MILTON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK — On the last day of a weeklong endurance challenge inside an aquarium, David Blaine faced one final feat: holding his breath for nearly 9 minutes while freeing himself from heavy chains and handcuffs. "He is pushing his body insanely to the limits," said Dr. Murat Gunel, who headed Blaine's medical team. Gunel, an associate professor of neurosurgery at Yale University School of Medicine, and other medical experts, had monitored the 33-year-old illusionist's condition 24 hours a day. Large crowds gathered all day Monday for a closer look at Blaine, who was submerged in an 8-foot snow globe-like tank on the plaza of Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts. He used an oxygen tube to breathe, and was fed and relieved himself by tubes. Gunel said the challenge had caused liver damage, sharp pains in Blaine's feet and hands, some loss of sensation and rashes all over his body. Blaine planned to put on chains and handcuffs, remove his oxygen tube and then escape while holding his breath longer than the record of 8 minutes, 58 seconds. The finale was to air live in a two-hour ABC special, "David Blaine: Drowned Alive," on Monday night. Kirk Crack, the magician's trainer and diving expert, said if there were any signs that Blaine was becoming unconscious, divers would immediately jump into the tank, free him from the chains and bring him to the surface. Blaine started training in December, with some help from Navy SEALS. He lost 50 pounds As early as the second day of his challenge, Gunel said, there was evidence that Blaine was suffering liver failure; the medical team consulted with medical experts at NASA before stabilizing his condition. Blaine's underwater environment is similar to the weightlessness experienced by astronauts in outer space, he said. "I told him he needed to get out of the water, and he refused me," said Gunel. "He said he did not want to let the people down." CIA chief nominee attracts concern INTELLIGENCE BY KATHERINE SHRADER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — President Bush's nomination of Gen. Michael Hayden as CIA chief ignited a confirmation fight Monday over the intelligence veteran's ties to the controversial eavesdropping program and his ability to be independent from the military establishment. With Hayden at his side, Bush urged senators to promptly approve the former National Security Agency head, who one year ago was confirmed unanimously to be the nation's first deputy director of national intelligence. signing the NSA's warrantless surveillance program. Disclosure of the program late last year sparked an intense civil-liberties debate over whether the president can order the monitoring of international calls and e-mails in the U.S. without court warrants. "While I am not opposed to his nomination, senators—including myself will have important questions which they will want addressed." California Rep. Jane Harman, the House Intelligence Committee's top Democrat, joined colleagues in saying Hayden had Pat Roberts Senate Intelligence chairman "Mike Hayden is supremely qualified for this position." Bush said in the Oval Office. "He knows the intelligence community from the ground up." CIA Director Porter Goss announced his resignation last week after tussling with Hayden and his boss, National Intelligence Director John Negroponte, about the agency's autonomy and direction. Even before Hayden's nomination became official, Republican as well as Democratic lawmakers had begun questioning whether he was the right choice to head the spy agency. Senate Intelligence Chairman Pat Roberts, R-Kan., stopped short of endorsing Hayden: "While I am not opposed to his nomination, senators — including myself — will have important questions, which they will want addressed." Hayden is credited with de- become part the "White House spin machine" though intelligence professionals typically eschew partisan politics. Senate Judiciary Chairman Arlen Specter, R-Pa., has said that he would use a Hayden nomination to raise questions about the legality of the eavesdropping program, and he has not ruled out holding up the nomination in the meantime. Several Republicans, including House Intelligence Chairman Peter Hoekstra, R-Mich., and Sen. Saxby Chambliss, RGa., have called Hayden's military background troublesome in this case. Hayden, 61, would be the seventh military officer to head the CIA since 1946. But his nomination comes at a time when lawmakers are particularly concerned about the influence of Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld. Seeking to ease concerns about military leadership at the CIA, Negroponte said a retired veteran of the agency's clandestine service, Steve Kappes, was a leading contender to replace the CIA's current deputy director, Vice Adm.

Especially for the men's basketball and football teams. [Image of five rowers] Most Kansas men's basketball fans are hoping the 2006-2007 season will bring a third national championship. They point to next year because all the best players are returning, and because once it's over, nothing will be certain. The basketball team is full of expectations. It is also full of potential NBA draft picks. Two years from now, can anyone be sure which players will return? Or, in the event of another early tournament exit, can anyone be sure Bill Self will be back? He's received a free pass for the disappointment that came during the past two years, because the players either weren't his or were too young. Next year there will be no excuses. All the fingers of praise or blame will be pointed directly at Self. It's a good thing — especially for Self — that the team probably will be ranked in the top 5 in the preseason polls, and will have a great chance to make a deep NCAA tournament run. But the pressure is still there. As for the football team, it's coming off its best season in 10 years. Many of its stars, however, will not be returning, leaving fans without a clue of how the team will perform. The football team would not be as devastated by a bad season as the basketball team would be. Kansas football fans know how to deal with mediocritic. However, another winning record could mean great strides for the football team as well as the entire Athletics Department. More tickets sold would mean more money for the rest of the Athletics Department, which would mean better facilities and better recruiting for all Kansas teams. A losing season without a bowl game would slow down the momentum the football team has gained during the past three years, making more money a less likely scenario. It's no secret that football is a moneymaker, and last year a successful 7-5 team led to record-breaking attendance in Memorial Stadium. An even more successful season — eight victories and a trip to the Alamo Bowl, for example — would generate such excitement that seeing home games consistently sell out wouldn't be surprising So many possibilities, and no one knows how next year will turn out. I guess we'll wait and see. C. J. Moore/KANSAN The rowing team practices Saturday morning on the Kansas River.

The area is called "The Cage" and should be replaced by a boathouse in the next three years. Students voted, what happens now? By C.J. MOORE cjmores@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITTER Last month, students voted for a resolution that will help build the rowing team a new boathouse. But what most students may not have realized was that plans for the boathouse barely exist. e is no timetable set for There is construction to begin. An architect has not been approved, and a construction company has yet to be hired. The Athletics Department said the students have funded 40 percent of the bill, but a specific source for the remaining costs have not been determined. The rowing team currently its boats at city-owned Burcham Park at Second and Indiana streets, near the Kansas River, in a fenced-in "Through the spirit of Title IX, through the spirit of women's and nonrevenue sports, it would be more appropriate to fund it through the athletic department. The athletic corporation has the resources. They're able to do it themselves. They are not in the red here." Ian Staples Student Senate legislative coordinator area called "The Cage." But the city hasn't agreed to let the University build a facility there. Kansas is one of two Division I schools with a rowing team that does not have a boathouse for its rowing team or is in the process of building one. With the students approving the $20 women's and non-revenue fee increase, $15 of which goes for the boathouse, in last month's elections, the rowing team finally has plans for a boathouse. It's an improvement that Kansas coach Rob Catloth has been asking for since the program became a NCAA Division I varsity sport in 1995. But is it the students' responsibility to pay for the rowing team's boathouse? Ian Staples, the legislative director of student senate, said he thought the athletic department could afford Some say no. "Through the spirit of Title IX, through the spirit of women's and non-revenue sports, it would be more appropriate to fund it through the athletic department," the Lawrence junior said. "The athletic corporation has the resources. They're able to do it themselves. They are not in the red here." to pay for the boathouse without the students' support. The Indianapolis Star reported that the department was the third most profitable in the country. The Department of Education reported that the Athletics Department had $10 million in profit last school year. Only the University of Texas had more profits in the Big 12. Marchiony said it was fair to ask the students to support women's and non-revenue sports financially.

She struggled for playing time early in the season, but worked her way into the lineup, earning a starting spot in the game against Missouri. She is listed as a forward, but played as a guard, too, and created match-up problems for opponents with her height, at 5 feet 10 inches. She has not yet decided on a school to transfer to.

Referendum No. 2, the $20 increased fee for women's and non-revenue sports, $15 of which goes toward the rowing facility, received more votes — 5,316 than any other referendum on the ballot "If the students had said no, you wouldn't have heard any kind of clamor from athletics." Marchiony said. Out of the $20 increase that will take effect next semester — increasing the non-revenue and women's sports fee to $40 — $15 will go to the boothouse fund for the next three years. Marchiony estimated the costs of building the boathouse should be between $4 to $6 million. The students will pay approximately 40 percent of that cost. Donations will cover the other 60 percent. Marchiony said the Athletics Department had yet to find a donor. Most athletic facilities on campus, such as the new football facility that will be built next to Memorial stadium, are paid for entirely through donations. However, with a small alumni base in rowing, Associate Athletics Director Jim Marchiony said it was difficult to find a donor. At Kansas State, the athletic department raised funds through a Boathouse campaign for a $1.3 million rowing facility, according to the Kansas State athletics Web site. The student fee for athletics at Kansas is one of the only fees that does not have a student advisory board to determine what will be done with the money. Instead, with athletics, the $40 goes straight to the Athletics Department. To ensure that the money would go to the construction of the boathouse and women's and non-revenue sports, Student Senate asked Athletics Director Lew Perkins to guarantee in writing that the money would not go elsewhere. If construction of the boathouse does not begin in the next three years, Perkins agreed to return all of the money back to the students. The increase came as a result of a study that was conducted by the Campus Fee Review Subcommittee of Student Senate. The group evaluates every student fee once every three years. "This is something that isn't going to Bill Self's salary," student senator Cory Kelly said. "We were guaranteed that none of it would go to football or basketball through moving funds around." Marchiony said the Athletics Department began meeting in February or March with various "Senate really doesn't like voting on student fee increases in senate," Kelly said. "We'd rather have students vote on it." senate groups expressing a need for the boathouse. Student Senate never voted on the fee increase to fund the boathouse. Kelly, West Des Moines, Iowa freshman, and fellow student senator Jack Connor began collecting signatures for a referendum of the $20 fee increase, including the $15 for the boathouse, to go on the April ballot. For a referendum to be voted on by students, 1,000 signatures must be collected or student senate can vote to put it on the ballot with a two-thirds vote. The referendum got 2,000 signatures. Marchiony said there was no timetable set for the construction to begin of the boathouse. First, the Athletics Department must find a donor or donors to pay for the other 60 percent of the costs. Then, they must meet with architects and the city to determine what they can build and where. Whether the students should pay for the boathouse or the athletics department should foot the bill is now up to the provost and the Board of Regents, who still have to approve the referendum. - Edited by John Jordan Wednesday $1 Domestic Draws | $2.50 Bacardi Drinks | $1 Cover After 11 DJ Mad Cowboy 10p.m.-2a.m. 2IDs required to enter Join us at the Yacht Club for our New Specials!

Mike Wood (3-0) threw 4 1-3 shutout innings in relief of Denny Bautista, who gave up four hits and two runs in three-plus innings in his first start since going on the disabled list April 14 with a sore right pectoral muscle. Wood gave up just three hits and did not issue a walk. Aimiorix Burgos got the last four outs for his fifth save in six opportunities. It's the second time this year the Royals have beaten Paul Byrd (4-3), who won a career-best 17 games for Kansas City in 2002. Mientkiewicz gave the Royals a 2-1 lead in the first with a two-run single after Esteban German walked and Mark Grudzielanek doubled to start the innings. Buck led off the fifth with a homer and vent 2-for-3 to raise his batting average to .217. After Buck's homer, the Royals loaded the bases with none out on two singles and Byrd's throwing error to third on Mientkiewicz's sacrifice bunt. But Byrd escaped with only one run on Emil Brown's sacrifice fly. Byrd went seven innings, allowing nine hits and four runs, three earned, with two walks and no strikeouts. Grady Sizemore tripled on Bautista's third pitch of the game and scored on Jason Michaels' groundout to give the Indians a 1-0 lead. The lanky right-hander did not allow another run until the fourth when Victor Martinez doubled — extending his AL-best hitting streak to 16 games. He scored on Casey Blake's —and scored on Casey Blake's sacrifice fly off wood. Sizemore hit a solo homer in the ninth. Notes: Notes: ■ Bautista was reinstated from the 15-day DL and Joe Mays was designated for assignment. The Royals asked Mays to accept a minor league assignment but manager Buddy Bell aced his task declined. Martinez has reached base in 31 of 52 games. Cleveland RHP Rafael Betancourt is scheduled to throw a 40-pitch bulpen on Tuesday in Cleveland. He was put on the DL with a back injury. The crowd of 9,029 was the smallest of the year.

Garner and Witherspoon were among a delegation of 40 prominent Hollywood and Washington women to visit the area, sponsored by the Children's Defense Fund. Delegation for children visits New Orleans BY STACEY PLAISANCE THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW ORLEANS — In a gutted building with no interior walls, exposed pipes and no air conditioning to stave off the Louisiana heat, Reese Witherpoon, Jennifer Garner and Cicely Tyson chatted with children who had lost their homes, then watched as they sang, danced and worked on art projects. The movie stars were among a delegation of women touring devastated parts of the city Monday to meet with families and children trying to adjust to life after Hurricane Katrina. "I don't think you get a real clear perspective unless you come down and see it," Witherspoon said after chatting with students at a "Freedom School" set up by the Children's Defense Fund to help young storm victims. "The children need attention right now," said Witherspoon, this year's best actress Oscar winner for "Walk the Line." The visit was part of an effort by the fund to bring attention to the needs of storm victims, particularly traumatized children. The group plans to open more than 20 such schools in communities along the Gulf Coast: 13 for Louisiana and nine for Mississippi.

About 1.2 million people younger than 18 are living in areas rendered disaster zones by Katrina, and as many as 8 percent, or 100,000, are expected to develop post-traumatic stress disorder, according to various estimates. Some experts say the mental health toll may be much higher. Of the first 1,000 children screened by the Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center, 27 percent displayed symptoms of trauma, including nightmares, flashbacks, heightened anxiety and bedwetting. "I've been shocked and heartbroken," said Garner, star of TV's "Alias" and the film "Elektra," who cried when the children danced and sang "Something Inside So Strong" by South African singer Labi Siffre. Romijn's sitcom still uncertain ENTERTAINMENT LOS ANGELES — Rebecca Romijn is used to the blue jokes. BY BRIDGET BYRNE THE ASSOCIATED PRESS "Yeah, I have to talk about blue makeup a tremendous amount," she says of her role as the shape-shifting, blue-hued mutant, Mystique, in the "X-Men" films. "But I know how much people love those movies and I'm really happy to be part of them, so for the most part, I'm happy to talk about it," she adds. "The Last Stand," the third installment of the widely followed "X- Meir Francis, arrives Memorial Day weekend. Production on Romijn's new WB sitcom "Pepper Dennis" was halted for several Although "Pepper's" midseason debut was highly anticipated — the WB ordered a full 13 episodes — its ratings have been disappointing and Romijn has been working overtime to promote more interest in her show. Romijn said the series first appealed to her because, "I was dying to do a comedy." months while the statusque actress was filming "The Last Stand." So when production resumed on the romantic comedy, in which she plays the title role of a TV reporter, it was decided that Pepper would offer a wink and a nod to Mystique. "Pepper's covering a thwarted bank robbery and ends up with a bag of money and the dye pack hasn't been detonated yet," Romijn explains. "When it is, it ends up all over Pepper. Then we cut to her in the shower and you saw all the blue paint going down the drain. It was a little bit of letting go, moving on." beyond that" about the fate of the sitcom, which airs Tuesdays at 9 p.m. EDT. "We're on a very tough night. Our little show is out there kind of singing for its supper as it were," explains Harberts in a not-so-subtle reference to Fox's hugely popular "American Idol," which leads Fox to Tuesday-night domination. Yet co-creator Gretchen J. Berg appreciates the promotional efforts of the WB, which will soon merge with UPN to form the CW network. "We are slugging away here," says co-creator Aaron Harberts, adding that he knows "nothing The WB's "in a tough position because the network is made up of people and a lot of them don't know what's next for them and the fact that they've been supportive of the show and excited about it really means a lot to us." the series first appealed to her because, "I was dying to do a comedy." Romijn said Reading the pilot script, she thought, "OK, this girl's craaaazzy. I like her. She sounds fun. I want to hang with her." So she "begged" for a meeting with the show's creators. "She projected power and confidence and poise, which I think necessary to being a reporter," says Har伯erts. He said a lot of young actresses he met "came off as a bit presumptuous and obnoxious," but Romijn's demeanor seemed exactly right. "She's a woman, not a girl." Romijn, 33, was born in Berkeley, Calif., and was a successful model in the U.S. and Europe before her acting career took off. She also did some TV reporting in the late '80s, conducting interviews on the MTV fashion series "House of Style."

Phillip/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Dallas Mavericks' Dirk Nowitzki, of Germany, keeps the ball from San Antonio Spurs' Bruce Bowen during the fourth quarter of Game 1 in the Western Conference semifinals NBA playoff game Sunday in San Antonio. Making up a 5-inch height difference with in-your-face face, Bowen got Nowitzki out of whack early, then got the ball out of his hands on the final play to help the San Antonio Spurs beat the Dallas Mavericks 87-85. BY JAIME ARON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS SAN ANTONIO — Hands pumping, feet moving, eyes staring straight ahead, Bruce Bowen wasn't about to let Dirk Nowitzki start the second round of the playoffs with the groove he had in the first round. Making up a 5-inch height difference with in-your-face tenacity, Bowen got Nowitzki out of whack early, then got the ball out of his hands on the final play to help the San Antonio Spurs beat the Dallas Mavericks 87-85 on Sunday. Nowitzki scored 20 points, but missed 12 of 20 shots and was 1-of-4 in the fourth quarter. The Mavericks went into the period leading by one, but scored only 13 points — two in the final 4:08. "He earned his money tonight," coach Gregg Popovich said, "for sure." Oh, the winning shot for San Antonio? Bowen hit that, too. Bowen made a 3-pointer with 2:15 left that put the Spurs ahead 87-84. A free throw by Erick Dampier was all Dallas could muster the rest of the way despite being the team with much fresher legs. Nowitzki averaged 31.3 points against the Grizzlies and worried that the long layoff might take him out of his rhythm. The Maws had been off since sweeping Memphis out of the first round Monday, while the Spurs were playing 36 hours after knocking out the Kings in Sacramento. He scored 13 points in the first half and felt pretty good about it. Then Bowen began playing what Dallas coach Avery Johnson called "bear-hug defense," and the big German couldn't break free. He was 3-for-11 in the second half, getting to the line only once (missing one of two) and scoring only seven points. "I had some good looks and missed some shots I usually make," said Nowitzki, who sometimes was covered by former teammate Michael Finley. "I had a decent rhythm in the first half, but I lost it in the second." For Bowen, this helped make up for a first round in which he didn't live up to his first-team All-Defense reputation against Sacramento's Bonzi Wells. "You don't want people talking bad about you." Bowen said. "You get a little upset and your pride gets hurt a little bit." Dallas' last possession began with 13.9 seconds left. Nowitzki got the ball on the right side, but Bowen was all over him, with Tim Duncan moving over to block his path to the basket. So Nowitzki threw a courtship pass to Iervu Stackhouse. Manu Ginobli nearly intercepted it, but Stackhouse recovered. He could've driven for a tying shot, but instead stepped back into the left corner and put up a well-covered 3 that was way short. Facing pretty much single coverage, Duncan got all three Mavericks centers to pick up two fouls in the first quarter. He scored 20 of San Antonio's first 38 points to keep the game tied midway through the second quarter. "Somehow, if I had a little more on it, then maybe we'd have a different feeling right now," said Stackhouse, who led Dallas with 24 points. "We came in here with the right attitude, right energy, but we let them take the game." Game 2 is Tuesday night and Dallas is likely to find a new way to cover Duncan before then. The Mavericks tightened things up at halftime, but Duncan still finished with 31. It was only the third time all season he's cracked 50. Without his big start, the weary Spurs would've been in big trouble. Duncan has a foot injury that's kept his scoring down. He also was well below his postseason average in the first round. So teammate Tony Parker said he wasn't surprised that Dallas didn't aggressively double-team Duncan. "A lot of people have been doing that lately." Parker said. "That's a big mistake." Both teams had been bracing for this meeting most of the season because of a flaw in the NBA's seeding system that forced them to meet in the second round, regardless of the fact they both hit 60 wins. Neither team needed much time to prepare for the other, anyway, considering all their connections — from Johnson playing most of his career for Popovich to Finley having spent the last nine years on the Mavericks. "This was a very tough one," Ginobilli said. "It doesn't mean Game 2 is going to be any easier. They are going to come upset, so we've got to keep improving ... We can play much better." Although Game 1 wasn't a thing of beauty, the close finish made for an exciting start to the series. Parker scored 19 points, Ginoblii added 15 and Bowen scored six. Dallas' Josh Howard had 17, but 14 came in the first half, and Jason Terry scored 14. DUKE LACROSSE Duke releases official report BY AARON BEARD THE ASSOCIATED PRESS DURHAM, N.C. — Duke underestimated the rape allegations against members of the lacrosse team in part because Durham police initially said the accuser "kept changing her story and was not credible," according to a university report issued Monday. The day after the March 13 team party where a 27-year-old black woman claimed she was raped, Durham police told campus officers that "this will blow over," the report said. Instead, more than a month after the party, a grand jury indicted two members of the highly ranked lacrosse team on charges of rape, kidnapping and sexual assault. The report was commissioned by the Duke president and prepared by Julius Chambers, a former chancellor at North Carolina Central University, where the accuser is a student, and William G. Bowen, a former president of Princeton University who is now head of the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. The report did say a female Duke police officer tried to calm and reassure the accuser at the hospital where she was taken by police hours after the party. The woman, the Duke officer said, was "crying uncontrollably and visibly shaken ... shaking, crying and upset." That behavior, the report said, "doesn't suggest that the case was likely to just go away." The statements about the accuser's credibility were part of a major failure of communications between police and Duke's administration, the report said. Defense attorneys have strongly proclaimed the innocence of the team and the two players charged, sophomores Reade Seligmann, of Essex Fells, N.J., and Collin Finnery, of Garden City, N.Y.

The Lawrence area may not have many mountains, but it will play host to three days of bicycle races this weekend. Many of the best cyclists from both the professional and the collegiate ranks will converge in Lawrence to compete in the USA Cycling Collegiate Road Nationals. The University of Kansas Cycling Club, which is hosting the event, has enjoyed a strong season for national competition It really requires a lot of ability.

Members of the team said they looked forward to nationals, which is the final and most prestigious event of the season. in preparation for the national competition. Graduate student and Kansas team member Jeff Schroeder, the overall conference points leader in the men's class B, while senior Kim Kissing is third in the conference in women's class B. The first races will be the Like other sports, the Jayhawk riders said they had a distinct home-field advantage against the visiting competition because of their familiarity with the local courses. "The season never really ends for these guys," assistant coach David McLeod said. "They race through the fall and spring for Kansas and compete in additional races all summer long." The team raced well in events in North Dakota, Nebraska and Minnesota in order to qualify "Many people from out of town don't realize that it's hilly." Schroeder said. "We have the advantage of knowing the terrain." Kim Kissing Cyclist team time trials, which will begin Friday mornig at 27th and Wakarusa. The time trials will feature some of the fastestriders from each division. "We always see some real speed and some excellent new technology at the time trials," said graduate student and cyclist Jason Knight. Saturday morning, the competitors will head to Lake Perry for the road race, which will showcase the long distance riders' stamina. The main event will be the criterium, held downtown at 8th and Massachusetts. The criterium is a shorter, more viewer-friendly event that features many riders battling each other for position and space. KANSAS "It really requires a lot of ability."

I bear the frustrations of all the fans of Kansas City." David Glass Kansas City Royals owner 7, Mo. — Kansas City Royals owner David Glass reiterated Monday that he was not ready to announce what front-office changes he had in mind. Glass said last week that he was planning "significant changes" in his woebegone club, which entered Monday night's game against Cleveland with a major leagueworst 7-22 record. "What I said last week was none of us are happy with our record and that I think the team's better than the way that it's played and that we weren't willing just to sit and wait and see if we got better." Glass said when confronted by about two dozen reporters and cameramen near the Royals' batting cage. "What we were going to do is we were going to change everything that we could possibly change to improve the team's record. That's exactly what I said and that's what we're working on, and as soon as we know what we're going to change I'll be glad to share it with all of you." Asked if he was going to fire general manager Allard Baird, Glass refused comment. "We're examining all of our alternatives. Anything that we can change," he said. "As a fan, I'm very frustrated. I bear the frustration of all the fans of Kansas City and I just want everyone to know that we're not happy with the way things are going now, with our record. But we're not just going to sit and see if it gets better when our players get back. We're going to change everything that we can change. Right now I don't know what we can change."

DAVIS III fdisavs@kansan.com KANSAST WRITE WRITER Park and Ride will open its new lot in the fall Jared Gab/KANSAN The University's $9.6 million Park and Ride project is half complete — the rides are ready. In a ribbon-cutting ceremony Tuesday afternoon in front of the Kansas Union, Provost David Shulenburger, along with state officials, unveiled one of the five new buses that will be used exclusively for the Park and Ride service. "This is a wonderful beginning." Shulenburger said. the new Park and Ride 101, schedul ed to open by Aug. 14, came about after an April 2005 study advised the University of Kansas to seriously rethink its parking situation. "The University's traffic situation is already at gridlock," said Park and Ride project manager Peg Livingood. The new lot, located on West Campus near Iowa and 23rd streets, is hoped to ease that gridlock with the 1,472 parking spaces it will provide. The five new 35-foot Optima Opus buses — $270,000 each — feature a low floor that allows greater accessibility and seats that are easily adjusted to make space for wheelchairs. The new buses can hold as many as 50 passengers and are the first KU buses with air conditioning. The shuttle service from the new lot to the main campus will run from 7 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. There will be 11 stops on the shuttle route, and there is no cost to ride. The cost for a Park and Ride permit is $205 and the permits are on sale now. SEE BUS ON PAGE 5A PROFILE LATTER-DAY Stripper By FRED A.

She has been dancing topless for the last five years, although she was raised in a conservative Mormon family. 图2-10 Tori tucks her money into her garter belt, which she wraps around her ankle. Thursday night at AllStars, she earns $200 to $800 a night as a dancer. Rachel Sovmour/KANSAN It's Friday night and Tori, the long-legged brunette, struts in 7-inch heels toward the stage. Wearing a thin black thong and bra, she grabs the pole with her right hand, spins in a swift circle and smiles at the staring men as they sip from longneck beer bottles. Tori — as she is known on stage — has danced topless for the last five years at AllStars in North Lawrence. While her job implies she shows all, what patrons can't see is a KU student and National Merit Scholar raised in Lenexa by a conservative Mormon family that adhered to church rules banning pre-marital sex, alcohol, tobacco and caffeine. Student's occupation conflicts with family, former religion With the Rolling Stones' "Beast of Burden" bellowing from the sound system, Tori crouches down, crawls over the man and drags her bare breasts past his face. She snatches the dollar from his teeth and sends him away. Soon she strips off her top as a 20-something man in jeans — dollar bill in mouth — lies down on the stage.

Baseball, along with football and women's basketball, had come under scrutiny for below standard academic success. Despite the apparent slip up, the department had one of its more successful academic school years, with 214 student athletes averaging a 3.0 grade point average, and 69 earning academic all-conference accolades, Jim Marchiony, associate athletics director, said. The 214 student athletes earned their 3.0 averages in Fall 2005. Current GPAs will not be released until after finals. The number of athletes to finish with a 3.0 or above increased by 10 in the Fall 2005 semester. In this academic year, 69 student athletes have been named to the Academic AllBig 12 Team. Baseball, softball, men's and women's track and rowing have not yet announced academic teams. "We've been on a pretty good run the last couple years," Marchiony said. Two teams broke the record for highest GPA. In the spring and fall of 2005, the women's tennis and volleyball teams averaged a 3.49 GPA, the highest in KU athletics history. The baseball team recorded its highest GPA when it averaged 2.96 in Fall 2005, which helped the team raise its multi-year cu- Men's basketball: 5 NUMBER OF PLAYERS NAMED TO ACADEMIC ALL-BIG 12 TEAM Women's basketball: 3 Football: 10 Tennis: 3 Men's Golf: 4 Women's Golf: 4 Men's cross country: 7 Swimming/Diving: 12 Soccer: 10 Volleyball: 4 Women's cross country: 7 Rowing: No results will be released.

The lecture, entitled "Understanding 'Alternatives' to Evolution," was the final speech in the "Science, Education and the Public" lecture series. Professor explains curriculum hearings regarding evolution BY MELINA RICKETTS mricketts@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER The Kansas State Board of Education science curriculum standards have undergone no shortage of scrutiny, especially regarding evolution. Joseph Heppert, professor of chemistry, spoke about the board's hearings regarding evolution and intelligent design during a lecture called "Understanding 'Alternatives' to Evolution" on Tuesday at the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics. The lecture was the last of a four-part lecture series on science The hearings were held to explore confusing issues of legal and scientific substance in the proposed revision to the scientific curriculum standards that the state board approved in November. Heppert presented statistical data and various testimonies from the May 2005 hearings, at which, he said the scientific community ultimately did not feel the need to show up. The board ruled that criticism of evolution had to be included in school science standards. The lack of scientists at the hearings has undergone some public scrutiny, but Heppert said that 150 years of published scientific findings regarding evolutionary theory were really what supporters of intelligent design were testifying against. He said that those supporters did not present any data at the hearings. "You can't just criticize scientific theories," he said. "You have to be in there doing the science and you have to prove your assertion is true." Heppert called the idea that evolutionary theory was crumbling "highly amusing." He said scientists coveted recognition, so if there was any basis for opposing theory, young scientists would be all over it "like ants on an ice cream sundae." being like a secular religion. At the hearings the nature of science underwent criticism for being dogmatic or "Science cannot answer questions about the meaning of life." Heppert said.

This 24-year-old blessed with enviable brains, beauty and body will tell you she enjoys this job and what it has done for her. "I had very poor self-esteem in high school, and it has gotten much better since I started dancing," she said.

A life once filled with church, school and family is now filled with stripping, college and drinking with friends. "There's always somebody in a group that gets completely dicked over. I was that person." Eleven hundred miles away in her suburban Salt Lake City home, Tori's mother, Janet, bursts into tears over the phone. Regardless of her family's wishes or what others think, Tori declares she has been on her own for the last six and a half years and is doing just fine. She knows her family will never approve of her lifestyle, but in a way, they may have contributed to getting her where she is. People like "Big" Will Reed, the burly bouncer-turned-general manager of AllStars who But Tori won't hear it. She likes her job. She likes the money. She likes the atmosphere and the people she works with. The oldest of four children, Tori and her family moved to Her younger sister tells her in a text message, "You're better than this." "I don't understand any of this," she said about her daughter's lifestyle. Tori Dancer Lenexa from Utah when she was two. She remembers watching cartoons and having occasional spats with her younger sister growing up. An intelligent kid, she always did well "Tori is a very smart girl. I gave her all the brains I had," Janet said with a laugh. in school The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints dominated Tori's childhood, occupying at least 15 to 20 hours per week. Three hours of church, youth meetings and seminary five days per week from 5:30 a.m. to 6:30 a.m. were just some of her Mormon church activities. Early on, Tori did what was asked of her, at home, church or school. At age 15, Tori began to question the Mormon doctrine, including its strict rules on dating (Mormons aren't allowed to date until 16, and then they must do so in groups) and its ban on caffeine. She remembers pleading with her parents to attend events like the Kansas City "Renaissance Festival." "I never got it." she said about the book of Mormon. "I tried, I really did. I just never got the vibe that I should go with it." Her mother disagrees. "I don't think she was ready for the information," she said. Janet insisted other teenagers in the Church and their harsh treatment of Tori fueled her daughter's discontent. One teenage boy sent e-mails to others calling Tori a "whore" and a "slut," and warned them to stay away from her, Janet recalled. "There's always somebody in a group that gets completely dicked over," Tori said. "I was that person." Janet contended that if Tori had been treated better, things might have been different. "I wished I would have done something sooner." The family moved to Utah during Tori's junior year of high school. Mounting tension between Tori and her parents intensified when she dated a non-Mormon and hung out with friends her mother called "druggies." Tori admitted her friends dabbed with alcohol and drugs and that she even tried both a few times. However, she's adamant that her experimentation was brief and never affected her at school. HER parents reacted swiftly and firmly to Tori's behavior, sending her to a drug rehabilitation center. She was isolated and had no contact with friends for five months. Tori checked herself out of rehab when she reached legal age at 18. She stayed with her parents in Utah for only a few days before her boyfriend and best friend picked her up and drove her back to Kansas. Tori did not speak with her parents for nearly a year after she left Utah, but she now understands why her parents sent her to rehab. "I was the oldest and they were concerned for my welfare. I still feel bad about them sending me to rehab, because it was so expensive. But it was not necessary," she said. Even Janet wonders now if sending Tori to rehab was an overreaction. "I don't know," she said. "I still feel badly to this day about it." - * * Back in Kansas, Tori enrolled at the University. With her freshman year winding down, she was living in Overland Park and commuting daily and had just left her job at a department store in Oak Park Mall. Having worked 40 hours a week at the old job to cover her bills, she knew she needed to find a better-paying job fast, because she was getting no financial support from her parents. In high school she had joked about being a stripper. Suddenly the ioke turned serious. She sought the advice of her then-boyfriend. "He was supportive, and not in the creepy 'I want-to-date-a-stripper sense,'" she recalled. She visited Bada Bing in North Lawrence, now called AllStars. The search was over. Five years later, Tori and her mother still have never discussed Tori's job outside of school. "She doesn't ask, so I don't tell," Tori said. But Janet knows, and she can't understand why her daughter chose to dance at a strip club. "It breaks my heart, but it's her life and she has to own her behavior," Janet said. Tori said stripping was a job, not a lifestyle, although her social life away from AllStars usually involved bars and alcohol. She said her main reason for stripping 20 to 40 hours a week was simple — the money. Average nights brought in $200 to $300. Good nights can bring in as much as $800. Lap dances, a staple of any strip club, fetch $20. But Tori has her limits, going as far as to call herself "prude." "I won't dance for creepy guys. If I get a bad vibe, I won't dance." she said. Tori said some men think they can do whatever they want to a stripper. CONTINUED ON PAGE 5A She gave you nine months. Now give a little back. Mom will love it! Mother's Day Special!

She is the oldest of four children in a Mormon family. "Just because I'm a stripper doesn't mean you can sexually assault me," she said. "It's not worth an extra $20, $40, $200 or $400 dollars to go home angry. My mental and emotional health are much more important." Another way she makes money doesn't involve dancing at all—she just sits and talks with a customer. "Guys are just paying for the company," she said. Tori said she had a few regulars who come in specifically to see her, but she's really had only one guy become too attached to her. Declining to go into specifics, she said the situation was resolved without incident. So what makes a good stripper? "Physical attraction is always a bonus," Tori said. She quickly added, "But it's not the only thing. Guys appreciate being able to talk for an hour or two. They appreciate a girl who's doing something with her life." Tori fits that description. 非常幸 A role model employee. That's what Big Will called Tori. Having danced longer than anyone at AllStars, Tori is a favorite of Big Will's. A humanitarian of sorts, the aptly named Big Will, an imposing figure with his moniker tattooed along his left forearm, is the father of a 16-year-old daughter and a newborn son. He claimed he taught life lessons that couldn't be taught at the University and called Tori one of his prized pupils. "I've seen Tori grow from a young, timid girl, who wasn't 100 percent sure, to a very confident, independent woman who's going to be something someday. The confidence she's developed is unbelievable. "Girls like Tori make AllStar classy." Big Will proclaimed. A classy strip club? "Every strip club is classy," Big Will quipped. "Just depends on what kind of class you come from." Despite coming from upper middle-class Johnson County and a Mormon family, Tori has no plans to stop dancing. Sure, her family would love to see her keep her clothes on and return to the Church. For now, Janet said she just wanted her daughter back, and that it's about family, not the Church. tori wouldn't rule out a return to the Church, but she wished her mother could appreciate what she's done on her own: working, paying her own way and finishing her college degree. She said she would probably walk down Campanile Hill next week for graduation to cap off an enjoyable six-year experience at the University. THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 5A As for what her next move will be, she's applied to medical school and is also considering a career in physical therapy. Tori understands that her KU education is the ticket to a successful working career, and that she's not going to strip forever. "But it's there if I need it." CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A —Edited by Matt Wilson Transfer Megan Hill, assistant director for transfer student recruitment and credit evaluation, said that transferring from a school like Gonzaga, which is private, Jesuit and out of state, was probably the most difficult of all transfer situations. Hill said the process began with students submitting applications and transcripts from previously attended colleges. Once a student is admitted, their file gets sent for a course evaluation. The courses are entered into a PeopleSoft course evaluation system, which determines if the course is transferable or if the course has ever been evaluated. Hill said if a course was being evaluated for the first time the off ice would research the transferability of the course. Hill said that if a course was deemed non-transferable by the system, students could petition within the respective school they are applying to within the University "The school has the final say to whether they will accept the transfer credit," Hill said. With about 1,000 students applying to transfer to the University every year, potential transfer students flood the Office of Admissions and Scholarships with phone calls and e-mails pertaining to questions about their transfer process. However, Hill encourages students to be proactive in the transferring process and to contact her office with any questions or concerns they might have. "Customer service is a big part of what we do. We try our best to respond within 24 hours." Hill said. Buser said that Hill and her co-workers had been very helpful during his process. He also said that being a lifetime KU basketball fan had played a part in his decision to transfer. — Edited by Lindsey St. Clair Bus CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A Livinggood said remote parking was essential if the University wanted to maintain its beauty without succumbing to the urbanized feel by adding parking garages to facilitate parking. She said the study showed the University was already 1,800 parking spaces short, and that with proposed campus expansion, 2,000 to 3,000 additional parking spaces would be needed. Provest Shulenburger, who is leaving the University at the end of the semester, said this project was the big goal of the year, and it would not have been possible without the efforts of employees like Livingood, Jim Long, vice provost for facilities planning and management, as well as others.

"There is a point of no return. I can't claim every student will gain a 4.0." Buskirk said.

Brooks protested U.S. involvement in the Vietnam conflict during high school. By the time he reached college, he had turned to more conventional forms of politics. Noticing how the media were gatekeepers even in local debates. Brooks saw that activism needed to evolve. Brooks said he saw student activism today, especially KU student activists, as far more media-savvy than that of the past. More students angrily protested on college campuses in past years, but now professors know how to grab TV and newspaper coverage. "More students know what's going on in the world, though fewer of them may understand the political process itself," Brooks said. KU Info returned last month, thanks to student activists like Justin la Mort, Cherrywale senior and a columnist for The University Daily Kansan, who trumpeted KU Info's importance to students during its absence. La Mort and other student activists helped restore the famous piece of the University's student services so students who wonder how many trees are on KU's Lawrence Campus can go to the new KU Info office in the Kansas Union. La Mort attributes his success to knowing how to handle the press. "Using the media and controlling the terms of the argument are essential," he said. "Mobilization is fundamental to give incentive to legislators if they want to keep their jobs while at the same time providing them political capital as cover from the lobbyists." La Mort is president of the KU chapter of ACLU. He fought, unsuccessfully, in April for the Lawrence City Commission to alter a noise ordinance that local privacy activists found intrusive and unfair. La Mort joined with the Delta Force coalition from Student Senate and marched on City Hall. Despite the commission's refusal to make changes to the law, La Mort said he saw a chance for student activists to push for a change again in about six months. "It depends on what you count as success," La Mort said. His efforts earned him a spot on the front page two days in a row in The University Daily Kansan and the Lawrence Journal-World, along with some press in The Washington Post and The Drudge Report. La Mort said that was a surprise. Other student activists, led by Ethan Nuss, Salina senior, helped organize the PowerShift energy security conference at the Kansas Union on April 29. The conference was sponsored by 20/20 Vision, a non-profit organization dedicated to reducing oil dependency. Nuss urged a Woodruff Auditorium audience of more than 240 to sway from addiction to foreign oil. "The beautiful thing — the advantage we have as students — is that we don't have the money," Nuss said. "The biggest resources we have are passion and people. If we can organize around that passion, then we can mobilize for change." Nuss wants to continue his work with 20/20 Vision next year by taking the fight to reduce oil consumption to Toneka. La Mort said, "As with most things, realizing there is a problem is the first step to fixing it. The change I've seen is that people are talking and repeating the points we've been hammering." Edited by Kathryn Anderson ENTERTAINMENT African filmmaker debuts with autobiography BY JILL LAWLESS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LONDON — Richard E. Grant wears a watch on each wrist. One tells the time in London; the other is set to the time in Swaziland, the country of his birth. The latter was a gift from Grant's late father, an official in the southern African country's last British colonial government. It closely resembles the timepiece received by Ralph, the hero of Grant's directorial debut, "Wah-Wah," from his similarly employed dad. The scene is based on truth, Grant says — as is nearly everything in the film, a warm but unsentimental coming-of-age story set during the last days of the British Empire. It has been described as a semi-autobiographical film, but Grant goes further: "It's entirely autobiographical." "You have to put in the `semi' to cover yourself legally, and obviously there's dramatic license taken," said Grant, who gained fame as the title character — a deliriously drunken failed actor — in the 1987 slacker classic "Withnail and I." "But everything that happens, happened." The film does not give a romanticized view of Grant's family or their neighbors, a tiny colonial elite seeing the sun set on their empire in the days before Swaziland's 1968 independence. In the course of the film, Ralph watches from the back seat of a car while his mother and her lover romp in the front, endures his parents' divorce and the icy disapproval of their neighbors, and sees his father sink into bouts of alcoholic despair that culminate in taking a shot at the boy with a pistol. All true, Grant says, and all events he has wanted to write about for a long time. "It's been hovering in my head for years," said Grant, 49, over a lunch of pasta at a centuries-old London pub. "I started keeping a diary when I witnessed my mother's adultery in this car when I was 10, simply because it was such a poisonous secret and I couldn't tell anybody about it. I suppose writing about it was a way of being listened to — a record of this actually going on, because I couldn't tell my friends and I certainly couldn't tell my father." "Wah-Wah" — the title refers to the drone of upperclass chitchat that drives one American character to distraction — is emotionally wrenching, but far from bleak. It has humor and absurdity as Ralph and the other expats stage an amateur production of "Camelot" to mark the arrival of Swazi independence. "It would be very easy to mock them," Grant said of the characters, who are frequently snobbish, narrow-minded and racist. But he set out to give a fuller picture. Grant said he hoped to convey the panic felt by people who saw "empire running out on them, and their livelihoods and the ridiculous social pecking order that we lived under. The sands of time were running out on them fast." Grant, whose acting CV runs from the sublime — Robert Altman's "Gosford Park" — to the Spice Girls (he played the band's manager in the girl-power feature "Spice World"), retains a strong sense of his younger self. The film sticks resolutely to Ralph's point of view, as he is angered and often mystified by the behavior of the adults around him. The role is played by Nicholas Hoult ("About a Boy", "The Weather Man"), whose gangly frame and otherworldly expression are reminiscent of the tall, turquoise-eyed Grant.

One of Rundle's main concerns was his brother and sister-in-law's reaction. "We have one sibling who is really conservative religiously," said Kate Van Zandt, one of Rundle's sisters. To Rundle's relief, his brother and sister-in-law's reaction was positive. In fact, his brother's nephew had come out months before. "He said he wanted to give me an early Christmas present. 'Actually, I want to give myself an early present,' she recalled her brother saying. "He wanted to be who he was and not hide anything." But, she said, not one of her family members would stop loving another because he or she was gay. Van Zand was one of the first of the siblings Rundle told he was gay. It was not long before Christmas. After his announcement, media outlets from in and out of state wanted a word with Rundle. Radio stations from Kansas to California called to talk to him. He walked in gay pride parades in Wichita and Lawrence and even gave speeches on his personal story. "I became a focal point for a lot of people who were interested in equal rights," he said. At one point though, some people thought Rundle's sexual orientation could be used against him. Rumors were whispered in Lawrence about Rundle being gay as he ran for city commissioner in 2003. These "whisper campaigns," as Rundle called them, had little effect on the election results. Rundle was reelected as a city commissioner with the highest number of votes of the six candidates running for positions on the city commission. Rundle was later appointed vice mayor in 2003, and then mayor in April 2004. "People look at how you run the city," he said. "That's more important than your private life." Even if Rundle had served openly as Lawrence's first gay mayor, he said it wouldn't have made a difference on how he chose to use his time as mayor. He said this was mainly because so much came up at the city commission. If Rundle had to decide now whether he wanted to run for reelection in 2007,he said his answer was yes.Scheduling in personal time weighs on him, though. Rundle has personal goals for himself outside the city commission including spending more time with his father, who is more than 80 years old. City commissioners could easily work about 40 hours per week on city issues, something Rundle said he sometimes had to do along with his other job as a head cashier at The Community Mercantile. As a cashier, he works about 40 hours per week. Between the two jobs and Rundle's personal life, he often feels pressed for time, he said. "I don't have forever to spend with him." Rundle said. — Edited by Lindsey St. Clair NATION D.C. notes intelligence failures THE BY ROBERT BURNS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld gestures during a news conference at the Pentagon on Tuesday. Razak N. Ghannam/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld said Tuesday that in light of prewar intelligence failures in Iraq, U.S. officials must be extra careful in evaluating intelligence about Iran's nuclear program. At a Pentagon news conference, Rumsfeld was asked how confident the American people should be in the reliability of the intelligence that is being produced on Iran and its nuclear intentions, given what happened with Iraq. He responded by noting the failure on Iraq, whose alleged weapons of mass destruction were the chief public justification given by President Bush for invading in March 2003 to overthrow the regime of Saddam Hussein. "It turns out it was wrong, that intelligence. Fair enough," he said. "It's a tough business. It's a difficult thing to be right all the time. And the information was not correct. Does that give one pause? You bet." When publicly discussing the reliability of U.S. foreign intelligence, Rumsfeld often notes the risk of mistakes and gaps, particularly regarding information on countries like Iran and North Korea that the Bush administration considers rogue nations. But he had not previously indicated that the Iraq failures give him pause on Iran. "You bet. And you're dealing with a closed society there, so clearly one has to be very careful." he said. Iran says its nuclear program is meant exclusively for generating electricity, but the United States and some other Western countries believe it is a cover for developing nuclear weapons. During a public appearance in Florida on Tuesday, President Bush said the United States was in the early stage of diplomacy to solve the Iran nuclear issue. "And we will continue to work through diplomatic channels to make it clear that Congress to pass an emergency spending measure that contains about $65 billion for Pentagon war costs in Iraq and Afghanistan. He referred specifically to the House having cut about $760 million that the Pentagon says it needs for training Iraqi and Afghan security forces. Asked when the Pentagon would begin a substantial withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq, Rumsfeld said it was too early to say. we mean what we say. And, obviously, part of making the diplomacy work is what will be the consequences if the Iranians decide maybe not to listen to the rational demands of the world." Bush said. He did not say what the consequences might be, but Bush has said many times that he could not rule out the use of military force against Iran. At his Pentagon news conference, Runsfield also pressed THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 7A ▼ WORLD AFTER FIVE O'CLOCK THE ASSOCIATED PRESS U. S. attorney Sabin Willett, second right, and five Uighurs, Chinese Muslims, released from the Guantanamo Bay detention center have lunch at a restaurant in Tirana Monday. China on Tuesday demanded the return of five Chinese Muslims released from the Guantanamo Bay detention center, blasting a U.S. decision to allow them to seek asylum in Albania. U.S. releases Chinese Muslims to Albania BY ALEXA OLESEN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS BEIJING — China on Tuesday blasted a U.S. decision to release five Chinese Muslims from the Guantanamo Bay detention center to seek asylum in Albania, describing them as suspected terrorists and demanding their return. A European-based Uighur Muslim activist said the men would face the death penalty or torture if sent back to China. The five Chinese were held in Guantanamo for several years after being picked up during the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan following the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. The United States said last week it was letting them go to Albania after concluding they posed no terrorist threat to the U.S. but might face persecution if returned to China. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Liu Jianchao said Tuesday that the men are suspected of being members of a group accused of waging a violent separatist campaign in China's northwestern Muslim region of Xinjiang. "The five people accepted by the Albanian side are by no means refugees but terrorist suspects," Liu said at a news briefing. "We think they should be repatriated to China." "Accepting the Guantanamo suspects as refugees violates the U.N. Charter and international law." Liu said, adding Beijing was urging U.S. and Albanian authorities "to send them back as soon as possible." Beijing says the group — the Xinjiang-based East Turkestan Islamic Movement — has links to al-Qaida and has received arms and training from the terror network. But the government hasn't released evidence to support its claims. "if they are sent to China they almost certainly, almost 100 percent, face a death sentence," said Dilxat Raxit, a Uighur Muslim activist in Stockholm, Sweden. "And if they don't get a death sentence they are very likely to face torture in prison." Manfred Nowak, a U.N. torture investigator, visited Xinjiang last year and said Uighur detainees were among those most likely to be mistreated by Chinese authorities. Liu did not respond directly when asked what charges the suspects would face if returned to China. Beijing blames Uighur separatists for sporadic bombings and other violence in the massive desert region in China's far northwest. But diplomats and foreign experts are skeptical and say most violence stems from personal disputes. Xinjiang — which abuts several Central Asian nations — is home to about 8 million Uighurs, who are ethnically Turkic, not Han Chinese, and have their own distinct culture and language. The Washington-based Uyghur American Association last week identified the men as Abu Bakker Qassim, Adel Abdu Alkakim, Ahtar Qassim, Ayup Haji Ahmet and Ahmet, without giving a last name for the fifth man. In announcing their release last week, the Defense Department gave scant information about the former detainees. Its statement did not say explicitly why they were not returned to China. "Our key objective has been to resettle the Uighurs in an environment that will permit them to rebuild their lives," the statement said. "Albania will provide this opportunity." The attorney for the five criticized the choice of Albania as a destination, saying it will be virtually impossible for them to assimilate. He said they were being sheltered at a National Center for Refugees in the suburbs of Tirana. 3 britches clothing 843 Mass.

After that, the seniors will walk down the Campanile Hill into Memorial Stadium to usher in the next part of their lives. They'll be bombarded with the advice of family and friends as they head into the world to start their careers. But what about the other Jayhawks? You know, the ones who will return in the fall to continue their studies and college experiences? Is there no advice for them about how to enjoy their remaining days at the University? We at the editorial board have taken it upon ourselves to communicate these few words of wisdom to those returning to campus in the fall: Seek to do things you've never done before you graduate. Go for a swim in the Chi Omega fountain, call the Freefor-All or go sledding on the Hill when class has been cancelled because of snow and ice. Take that HSES class so you can get in the physical shape you've always wanted to be in, or join an intramural team. On the weekends, go to a random house party and do a keeg stand if you feel the urge. Visit North Lawrence and revel in its difference from the rest of town. Issue: Things to do before graduation Stance: Take time out to experience what it means to be a Jayhawk before it's too late. Visit Clinton Lake and the numerous other parks that dot the area. Take a nap while studying for this semester's and future finals in Watson Library. Go to a concert or independent film at Liberty Hall. Visit a bar you regularly wouldn't and see what it's like. Live in the Oread neighborhood just east of campus and see if it holds up to its reputation. The key is to do something different and exciting. Don't limit yourself to this list. Be creative and come up with your own challenges to work on before you also walk down the Hill. This is your last chance to have a little fun before coming a responsible adult with a day job and 401(k). Take advantage of that.

STUDIO THE AUGUSTACHRONICLE S/16 Healthy foods are pricier but well worth the expenditure COMMENTARY BECCA EVANHOE opinion@kansan.com Peggy G. When I walk into a grocery with $20 to buy a week's worth of food, I tend to buy whatever's cheapest. Near-expired, marked-down ground beef? Check. No-brand-name milk? Check. Green bananas for 39 cents a pound? Check. There's no way I can afford to buy fresh, organic lettuces or free-range beef raised without bovine growth hormone or apples. We've all been to organic grocery stores, and we all know that prices can be double or even triple what you see at Checkers. So why the higher price? First, most organic farms aren't subsidized by the government. Your average stockyard receives money from the government, which keeps their prices down. Organic farms don't have that luxury. Second, more money goes into the care of the animals, and oftentimes more human labor. So smaller farms have higher costs of production, which means their prices must be higher to compensate. Third, the farms tend to be smaller. A basic economics class will teach you that the more of something you produce, the lower the cost of production becomes. So, what benefit do you get from organic food that you don't from so-called ordinary food? There's no scientific evidence that organic foods have more vitamins or nutritional value than non-organic food. In recent years, scientists are finding these chemicals everywhere — stored in fat in the The biggest pro-organic argument isn't about what you get, it's about what don't get. All of the pesticides and growth hormones and preservatives and ripening chemicals put on fruits and vegetables are not present in organic food. human body or in breastmilk; in rivers, lakes and oceans and in their sands and sediments; Most die-hard, pro-organic supporters say that these chemicals can cause cancer, hormonal imbalances and a weakened immune system, for starters. Skeptics can say that scientists are much better at proving that the chemicals are in and around our bodies than they are at proving that they're harmful, and they'd be right. It's easy to figure out how much of a certain pesticide a person could eat before he or she died from poisoning, but it's much harder to tell what effects minute amounts have over long periods of time. Have cancer rates been going up? Yes. Is it due to all of the chemicals that have found their way into our bodies? Not as clear. Most scientists would answer a hesitant "probably." The trouble is, there are so MANY chemicals supposedly at work in our bodies that scientists can't tell exactly what harmful effects any given one has. When I graduate and make a million dollars a year -ha ha- I think I will buy organic foods, but for different reasons than those listed above. Supporting local, organic growers is important to me, for starters. But organic food seems to taste better, fresher and riper. And I think there's value in going to the Farmer's Market or an organic grocery store to buy vegetables without plastic packaging, or beef that I know has grown up around where I have. It's simply more appealing. Plus, it's a safe bet — in case all of these hesitant scientists are right. Evanhoe is a Derby senior in Chemistry. Cultural differences less one-sided than would seem COMMENTARY Spain's ruling PSOE (Partido Socialista Obrera Español — Spain's left of center party) headed by José Luis Rodriguez Zapatero is far superior to the Republican Party and President Bush. Besides the obvious incompetence of the current Bush administration, the Zapatero government has accomplished two major equal rights achievements. After spending a semester in Madrid, Spain I have come to the conclusion that some things are better here while others are better in the United States. This is by no means exhaustive, scientific, nor without bias or possible ethnocentric preconceptions. First, Spain completely legalized gay marriage nearly a year ago. In contrast, Bush has continually advocated amending the constitution to ban gay marriage. Secondly, Zapatero has deliberately created a cabinet equally represented by both gender, including a female vice-president. Bush's cabinet has only four women in a cabinet of 16. Spain does not achieve equal rights for all, though. Innumerable places are not wheelchair accessible, nor have I ever seen a handicap parking spot. On this note, the Americans with Disabilities Act is tremendously successful in providing access to public buildings for virtually every American. Unrelated to the ruling government, the legal drinking age in Madrid is 18 — like most of Europe. There is no reason the drinking age should be 21 in the United States. Finally while the United States tries to take away marijuana from those in pain and dying of AIDS and cancer, Spain is much more relaxed. According to drupoly.org, the consumption and home growth of marijuana is legal, while the selling and trafficking of it is criminalized. In general, partying in Spain is an all-night experience, where it is not unusual to stay out until 6 or 7 in the morning, though going out does not usually start until midnight or 1 a.m. While it can be fun to stay out all night, and we have all experienced the night cut short by the bar closing at 2 a.m., the next day is basically slept away. The United States trumps Spain in customer service, though. In Spain, it seems the general wisdom is the customer is always wrong. While, this might save Spanish laborers in the service industry from the extremely whiny customer, it means that service sucks in Spain. On Saturday, I went to a fairly posh restaurant with a friend and we waited twice as long for a table as they told us we would. After promptly placing PAGE 9A our order, we wait at least 25 minutes for our drinks to arrive. Our waiter truly forgot about us. I am obviously not addressing a host of other issues where either the Spanish way or the American way is better, but have attempted to highlight the issues I think are most pertinent to my life as a student. That said, I have extended my stay in Madrid, through the summer, because despite its flaws, España es muy bueno. Ryan Kusmin is a Leawood junior in political science.

Wal-Mart's image is blasted daily by a barrage of complaints: Low pay, no benefits for employees and the death of locally owned businesses. Many locally owned stores and specialty shops have gone under when Wal-Mart has entered their market. Is this bad for the community? Wal-Mart's strategic approach is grounded in the idea that providing consumers with a wide range of goods at rock-bottom prices benefits everyone. Its existence embodies the capitalist model. All companies fight for customers: Best Buy vs. Ricks, Sunflower vs. Backwoods, and Myers Retail Liquor vs. Cork & Barrel. If a company can't beat its competitor on price it certainly needs to be prepared to beat them on service. Change in the business environment is pervasive and must be managed proactively. These locally owned businesses do not go out of business because Wal-Mart comes to town. Rather, they go under because they fail to change their own approach to doing business. Wal-Mart's existence in a community creates more jobs and allows families to expend much less of their limited income on necessary goods. With the creation of more jobs comes more income for citizens of a community like Lawrence. With more money in their pockets from Wal-Mart both directly — wages — and indirectly — low prices — they can help the local economy grow beyond what it would have otherwise. it is clear that Wal-Mart is in business to make money, much like Francis Sporting Goods, The Home Depot, and Hy-Vee. They are continually surveying the business landscape to find new ways of generating income. The bottom line is that these companies provide value to customers. There is a tangible benefit to having a Wal-Mart in your community. Embrace the fact that you can get almost everything you need in one place at a low price. So when you decide to go to Wal-Mart for a $3 jar of pickles, seven packages of Oreos, and a $5 DVD you can smile while you thumb through all that extra cash and say, "Wow, it was worth it." Brandon Hodges Hot Springs, Ark., Senior TALK TO US Jonathan Kealing, editor 884-4854 or jkealing@kansan.com LETTER TO THE EDITOR These arguments are unfounded. Wal-Mart pays a national average wage of nearly $10 per hour. They provide wages to unskilled employees at more than 47 percent of the federal minimum wage. Additionally, CEO Lee Scott has been pushing Congress to raise the minimum wage for the past three quarters of a year. A second fallacy in the continuing debate about Wal-Mart is its failure to provide health care coverage. Today we live in an economy that strains the purchasing power of low- to middle-income households. With health care costs on the rise, it is difficult for many families to afford quality health insurance. Wal-Mart addresses this challenge by providing a wide range of health care options. Wal-Mart employees may choose from more than half a dozen plans with premiums about $30 per week.

The bill would hand President Bush one of his top tax priorities, a two-year extension of the reduced 15 percent tax rate for capital gains and dividends, currently set to expire at the end of 2008. Republicans have credited the tax cuts, enacted in 2003, with boosting economic growth and creating many jobs. The measure also would keep 15 million families from being hit this year with the alternative minimum tax, which was designed to make sure the wealthy paid taxes but is ensnaring more and more middle-income families because it is not indexed for inflation. The accord paves the way for House approval of the measure as early as Wednesday. The Senate could clear the bill for Bush's desk by week's end. "This is a responsible bill that protects families and small business owners from tax increases, while also providing investors with a bigger window of certainty—critical to continued economic growth," said Ways and Means Committee Chairman m. Thomas, R-Caitl Critics, including many Democrats, have attacked the tax rate reductions on dividends and corporate profits as being largely tilted to the wealthy and have argued that the provisions should not be extended at a time of large budget deficits and massive spending for the war in Iraq. The development capped weeks of often difficult talks between and alternative minimum tax relief in a first, filbuster-proof bill while using a second bill to approve various tax changes left out of the main legislation. Under budget rules, only $70 billion in cuts can be advanced under fast-track rules that would prevent a possible filibuster by Senate Democrats. GOP lawmakers as they wrangled over how to advance their party's tax agenda. This is a responsible bill that protects families and small business owners from tax increases, while also providing investors with a bigger window of certainty-critical to continued economic growth." That rule prompted Republicans to devise a strategy under which they would advance the investor tax breaks Bill Thomas, R-Calif. Ways and Means Committee Senate Finance Committee Chairman Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, had been holding off on finalizing the main measure in order to preserve negotiating leverage on the second measure, which is to contain a number of widely backed tax breaks. They include a popular education tuition tax deduction, a tax break for teachers who buy their own school supplies and a research and development tax credit for businesses That measure would also preserve tax deductions for state and local sales taxes. As talks dragged on the second measure, pressure built from GOP leaders and the White House to complete the main measure. Thomas said negotiations will continue on the second bill. C. 1.

Jeb Bush declared a state of emergency and called in the Florida National Guard to help fight wildfires that have burned thousands of acres and blanketed highways with thick smoke.

"We had a little bit of rain but not enough to give people assurances that we are not going to have more fires." Rain was expected to help some areas Tuesday afternoon, but officials worried that lightning could spark more blazes. The governor said many of the fires likely started with either human negligence or malevolence. "We are a tinder box right now. We had a little bit of rain but not enough to give people assurances that we are not going to have more fires." Jeb Bush Florida Governor The governor declared a state of emergency Monday night, deploying aviation units from the Florida National Guard. He also met with some of the 155 firefighters working to contain a fire in New Smyrna Beach that has consumed about 1,300 acres since Sunday and destroyed three homes. "We still have significant wildfire conditions and need a tremendous amount of rain to get back to normal levels," New Smyrna Beach spokeswoman Shannon Lewis said Tuesday. "We are a tinder box right now," Bush About 1,000 residents were ordered to evacuate Sunday in New Smyrna Beach as the fire approached. Avia Toney was relieved Monday to find her house had been spared. She fled the neighborhood only when she saw fire approaching through the woods across a nearby golf course. "It was right at the edge of the woods," she said. "Ashes were falling. It was black and ugly." More than 2,200 wildfires have burned over 44,000 acres in Florida since Jan.1, according to the state Division of Forestry. "These fires are consuming everything," said Jim Brenner, the division's fire management administrator." And it's not over by any stretch of the imagination." Interstate 95 had reopened early Tuesday in Brevard and Volusia counties, Florida Highway Patrol Trooper Kim Miller said. However, smoke could shut it down again if the fires flare up again. MASS.

BY RYAN COLAIANNI rcolaianni@kansan.com KANSAN SENIOR SPORTSWRIVER After months of speculation, a canceled press conference and new schools entering the sweepstakes, Dallas high school star Darrell Arthur made his decision to attend the University of Kansas on Tuesday. "Darrell is one of the premier athletes in America," Kansas coach Bill Self said. "He has excellent perimeter shooting skills and can certainly score in the post. His athletic ability and shot-blocking should make him a presence defensively. His versatility will definitely be a bonus for our team and will allow us to play with more interchangeable parts." 1 Arthur Arthur, a 6-foot-9-inch forward McDonald's. All-American from South Oak High School, chose Kansas over Baylor and LSU at a press conference at his grandmother's house Tuesday. Arthur signed his letter of intent later in the day. "I just like the coaching staff and the coaching environment," Arthur said at the press conference, according to ribals.com. "I woke up this morning, I prayed last night, I told my mom it was Kansas and then called my coach." The decision ended one of the most bizarre recruits by Kansas since Malik Hairston, who chose Oregon against Kansas in 2004. Arthur was supposed to announce his decision on Monday but canceled it, postponing until Tuesday. "The Kansas basketball family is extremely excited to announce the signing of Darrell Arthur," Kansas coach Bill Self said. "Shady" as he is nicknamed, we heavily recruited by schools across the country for the past two to three years. His decision to pick Kansas after such an intense recruiting period with woke up this morning, I prayed last night, I told my mom it was Kansas and then called my coach." many other good choices definitely will impact our program in an immediate way." Arthur was the highest rated player that remained unsigned, according to rivals.com rankings. He is ranked 16th overall and the No. 3-rated power forward of the Darrell Arthur Dallas high school student class of 2006. "I like how Coach Self works with his players and I like the program," Arthur said, according to rivals.com. "The coaching staff and program are great." SEE ARTHUR ON PAGE 4B BUNT 'EM OVER Things to do at KU 77 MATT WILSON mwilson@kansan.com As my college career winds down, I realize I've been afforded the opportunity to do a lot of things I never thought I could experience. I've covered several sports for The University Daily Kansan and had a great time doing it. Working is a lot more fun if you can apply it to something you love. I'm glad I had an opportunity to work for your newspaper. Before that there were a lot of great times as well, just as a regular Jayhawk fan and KU student. That is why I want to leave you with this list — the top five things you must do before graduating from the University of Kansas. And because this is the sports page, I'll stick to the best experiences you can have involving sports at the University. The list (in no particular order, because they're all good): 1. Go to a Kansas-Missouri football game in Columbia, Mo. I've been to two Border Showdowns in Columbia during my time at school, and the arch rivals have split those games. The atmosphere also is great, assuming you don't mind taking some heat from the home fans. After watching Mizzuo students tear down the goalposts after beating one of the worst teams in Kansas football history in 2002, the Jayhawks pounded the Tigers two years later in a game they had no business winning. Definitely one of the best times I've had, and football day is head-and-shoulders above basketball. SEE COLUMN ON PAGE 48 2. Take a long road trip to follow a team, regardless if you go to the game or not. OK, that wasn't my intention when some friends and I went to Lexington, Ky., in January 2005, but it turned out to be a blast. We thought we could get some reasonably priced tickets from scalpers outside Rupp Arena for the Kansas-Kentucky basketball game. We were wrong. We ended up eating and watching the game at Pazzo's Pizza Pub, a great place to catch a game if you're ever in Lexington. The Jayhawks won, so we were treated to a drink from the super-friendly locals. What looked like a bust turned out to be a great time. BASEBALI 5. Go to a baseball game at Hoglund Ballpark. KU KU KU Senior center fielder Matt Baty, left, senior right-handed pitcher Don Czyz, center, and senior shortstop Ritchie Price, serve as the Jayhawk baseball captains this season. The teammates have lived together for three years. Play together, live together BY ALISSA BAUER abauer@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER No one in Division I baseball has more saves than Don Czyz. Before Matt Baty no Kansas baseball player had ever been named to the All-Big 12 First Team. Ritchie Price broke the 12-year long Kansas hits record after his 275th hit as a layhawk last month. The trio of Kansas seniors aren't simply record breakers, tem captains or the "big three." They don't only share more victories than any other Kansas seniors in program history. They also share the rent. "It's three good guys living together in one house, not only talking about baseball but we experience everything together." Baty said. Czyz, Baty Price and little brother Rye Price live together off campus. Although Kansas coach Rich Price requires players to live on campus in the Jayhawker Towers during their freshman season, he allows them to move off campus into housing of their choosing after that. Czyz, the East Coaster from Buffalo, N.Y., Baty, the Midwesterner from Wichita, and Price, the West Coaster from San Luis Obispo, Calif., have joined forces and stuck together. er for the last three years. They said the culture clash was not just a myth. "My mom always used to put the butter in the cabinet and they never did that," Czyz said. "So when I started doing that, they were like 'What's going on here?' Czyz, who claims to still not know where the butter goes, said aside from minor fights about playing Halo, he and his roommates rarely disagreed — except when it came to taste in music. "I'll be sitting in the house doing homework or something and I will hear rap blaring, or Ritchie likes O.A.R., and I like neither," Baty said. "So 'Il blare my country as loud as they play their stuff." All three seniors have had brothers on the team at one point. SEE BASEBALL ON PAGE 4B BASEBALL S Senior season brings big league hopes BY SHAWN SHROYER sshroyer@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWRIVER Last June, outfielder Gus Milner got a call from the Cleveland Indians organization informing him that he had been selected in the 47th round of the 2005 Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft. He turned it down. Although contract negotiations didn't produce the money Milner wanted, pay wasn't the only incentive bringing him back to Kansas for his senior season. "College baseball is only a one-time thing. You only get four years of it," Milner said. "It's team baseball at its best. Once you get to professional status, everybody is just trying to get to the 'The Show,' so it's more of an individual game.' Other players in Milner's situation might have easily jetted off to the professional ranks, but Milner already felt a connection with Kansas and Division I play. "I just wanted to come back and build upon last season." Milner said. "Improve every phase of my game statistically and see if we could just Milner do something special." With 33 wins and seven games and the Big 12 tournament to go, a 40-win season and NCAA Regional bid could be within reach for Kansas — a Personally, Milner's stats have improved since his junior season. He finished last season hitting .221 with 25 strikeouts against Big 12 competition. feat that hasn't been met since 1994. With three Big 12 games left this season, Milner is batting .287 against conference foes with just 14 strikeouts. "I'd much rather win," Milner said. "I'm the biggest sore loser you'll ever meet. I take everything personal if we lose." While Milner's improved stats also should improve his draft stock, he said the victories have been most important to him. In his two seasons at Kansas, Milner has had many memorable moments aside from being drafted. Milner's most memorable moment, however, may be yet to come. He was a Big 12 Honorable Mention in 2005 and has been named Big 12 Player of the Week twice and National Player of the Week once by CollegiateBaseballInsider.com. "If we make it to a Regional, that would be easily my most memorable moment," Milner said. "But right now it's just hanging out with the teammates I've got right here. They're good friends and they'll probably be friends until the day I die." JOHNSON SEE MILNER ON PAGE 4B --- WEDNESDAY.

Geoff Petrie, the Kings' president of basketball operations, gave only murky reasons for the decision, which probably was caused by clashing egos and the empty trophy case of owners Joe and Gavin Maloof, who are widely thought to be behind Adelman's departure. the San Antonio "I came to the conclusion that continuing this way just wasn't feasible," said Petrie, who also hired Adelman — his former roommate from their playing days — when both worked in Portland. "The dynamic that needed to be there to help it move forward just wasn't there." Audeman's departure Sacramento was eliminated from the playoffs on Friday by the San Antonio Spurs. The Kings also declined to renew the contracts of Adelman's four assistants: Elston Turner, T.R. Dunn, Bubba Burrage and Pete Carril, the Hall of Fame former Princeton coach who spent nine of the last 10 years as a Sacramento assistant. among active NBA coaches, spent this season as a lame duck, but still got the Kings into the playoffs at 44-38 with a tremendous late-season surge after the arrival of Ron Artest. The family tentatively courted Phil Jackson last summer while Adelman still was under contract, perplexing and angering Adelman. This spring, the brothers could be heard yelling advice at the Kings' bench from their courtside seats when things went poorly on the court. His departure ends the most successful tenure of any coach in the franchise's 21 seasons in Sacramento — but although Petrie steadfastly refused to acknowledge it, the Maloof brothers have been dissatisfied with Adelman's leadership for at least two seasons. court. Petrie plans to meet with Joe and Gavin Maloof late this week to begin a coaching search. The brothers were in Las Vegas on Tuesday and unavailable for immediate comment. "In theory, you would like to find someone as quickly as possible because of the draft Adelman had far more success than all of the coaches in Sacramento's two decades of NBA experience combined, but his sometimes-prickly meanor and his failure to win a championship left him less than beloved. and whatever trade opportunities can come your way," Petrie said. Adelman is 752-481 in 16 seasons as an NBA coach, the last eight in Sacramento, where he won 395 games. The Kings transformed themselves into a defense-oriented team when Artest arrived in a late-January trade for Peja Stojakovic. Sacramento won 25 of its final 36 regular-season games and pushed San Antonio in the first round of the postseason, eventually losing in six games. the wolf 53 games and the Adelman's streak of five consecutive 50-win seasons ended this year when the Kings got off to a terrible start. But Adelman might have done the most impressive coaching of his Sacramento tenure this season, molding a cohesive team with just two holdovers from the 2002-03 season. eventually losing both Adelman and the Maloofs made it clear they wouldn't discuss the coach's future until after the season. Adelman met with Joe Maloof on Monday. Monday. "We knew that it was going to be a looming issue." Petrie said. "We put it aside and concentrated on the job at hand." Adelman led the Kings to the playoffs in each of his seasons, starting with his surprising one-year revitalization of a longtime loser in the strike-shortened 1999 season. SUNY AT N.Y.

Dynamic pitching duo rakes in praise, victories KU pitchers rank second third in Big 12 BY MARK DENT mdent@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER Why wasn't Serena Settlemier on the mound? The senior pitcher held No. 2 Texas to one hit in five innings of work, but it was Kassie Humphreys trotting out to the hill. Was Tracy Bunge out of her mind for taking out someone who had pitched so well? Nope. The Longhorn hitters, who, after struggling with Settlemier, wilted against the equally potent Humphreys as Kansas upset Texas on April 23. "The nice thing is Serena and Kassie complement each other so well," Kansas coach Bunge said. "Kassie is definitely a power pitcher coming at you hard, trying to bear the ball down in on your hands. Serena's going to locate it, mix her speeds a little bit and be more finesse." Together, Settlemier and Humphreys have compiled 30 wins and rank second and third, respectively, in the Big 12 Conference in ERA. The 'Horns were just another team to fall victim to the dynamic duo of Settlemier and Humphreys this season. "I trust Kassie." Settlemier said of the junior pitcher after the Texas game. "We work really well together." out 217 batters, the third most in the Big 12, has been playing the best softball of her life during the past two months. She solidified her 1.31 ERA by allowing more than one run only five times in her last 18 games. In that same time frame, she threw five shutouts and one no-hitter. Also, Humphreys trails only Texas' Cat Osterman in opponents' batting average, allowing hitters to bat only .155 against her "H um- phreys is trem- mendous." Texas coach Connie Clark said. "She has great spin and is not one-dimensional. She made all her throws count." Kelso, Wa., pitcher is in her fifth year at Kansas. Though Settlemier has been a productive pitcher throughout her career, she has turned it up a notch for her final season. Settlemier has career bests with 16 wins, a 1.21 ERA, and 12 complete games. She also has won some of Kansas' most important games such as Texas and Missouri. Although Humphreys Settlemier also knows a thing or two about experience. The Like Humphreys, Settlemier has experienced some struggles "She's matured a lot, which comes from learning from failures. There's no substitute for experience.She's really finding herself as a pitcher." is garnering praise from Kansas teammates and opposing teams, that was not the case last season. In 2005, Humphreys took a step back after a promising freshman season, recording only five wins and allowing nearly five runs per game. Humphreys turned last year's disappointing season around and now sits near the top of the Big 12 in every pitching category. "She's matured a lot, which comes from learning from failures," Bunge said. "There's no substitute for experience. She's really finding herself as a pitcher." Tracy Bunge Kansas coach of her own. She missed her entire sophomore season because of injury and wasn't the same when she returned the next year. Settlemier posted an ERA of more than six and was able to pitch in only eight games. The next season her numbers improved, and this season, she has been at her best. "Serena's the best teammate these girls could ask for," Bunge said. "She's made a major contribution this year." With the season winding down and the match-up against Baylor in the Big 12 Tournament on the horizon, there are almost no guarantees to what will happen to the Jayhawks, except one. "We are going to get good pitching," Bunge said. "We've had success with what we did on the mound against them." MASS.

The Price brothers presently call the same house home. Czyz said he may move in with younger brother, freshman lefty Nick Czyz, next year. "Teammates are brothers," Baty said. "It doesn't matter, you can have your individual differences, dislikes and likes, but when it comes to baseball — that's the equalizer." Even though Baty used to spend his time as the other half of shortstop Price's double play combination at second base, he proved his transition to center field would not harm Kansas in the field. Although they no longer cover the middle infield together, Price and Baty had much to do with the string of 30-plus victories in their four consecutive seasons at Kansas. "They are three of the best guys in America," coach Price said. "I call those guys the 'big three' because they've been with me all four years — since I've been here. They've been a big part of the turnaround." Price neglects to visit their homes, though. "I allow them to be a player, I allow them to be a teammate," coach Price said. "It's the same when they go home. I have never been to their house in the three years that you've off-campus and I won't go. I try to give them that right and that privilege that every college student has." Ritchie Price said his mom stopped by twice a year to clean the house. Price said that his dad not stopping by was his own preference. "He'd never set foot in our house because I don't think he wants to know what goes on inside," Price said. "We don't always talk about the game, believe it or not," Czyz said. "We do go through the same problems that normal college students go through — girls, school, stuff like that." With more than 60 games per season, fly balls and base hits aren't the only things on the captains' minds. Then again, they also go through things normal college students do not go through. "There's been neighbors having late night parties and us going out there and people wanting to fight us," Czyz said. "There's been people breaking windows in our house, and kids lighting bags of poop on fire and putting them on our front porch." The captains will be out of eligibility next season, but won't be done at the University for another semester. Czyz said a couple of years ago, while the Jayhawks were preparing to play Missouri, they came outside to people throwing beer bottles at their house. The house-pegging didn't end in a fight, and Czyz said the ordeal was actually entertaining. Baty will take two summer classes and will graduate from Kansas after completing an internship with the Big 12 Conference in Dallas next fall. Price and Czyz have one more semester before they're finished playing at Kansas. Arthur CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B "I've already offered everyone on my team a job once I become a big time athletic director like Lew Perkins," Baty said with a laugh. "I feel very good about Darrell's decision to attend Kansas," Arthur's high school coach James Mays told rivals.com. "I know that his mother and grandmother feel the same way. We were going to support Darrell no matter what because we wanted this to be his decision." Edited by Lindsey St. Clair After Indiana coach Mike Davis resigned from Indiana, Kansas appeared to be the front-runner for Arthur, but then Arthur chose to look at new schools after the Final Four and even took an unofficial visit to LSU. It was speculated that Kansas was out of the running when Arthur returned from his visit to LSU because it, as well as Baylor, were able to offer more playing time. Arthur led his high school to back-to-back Texas 4A state titles in March. He averaged 18 points, 10 rebounds and six blocked shots per game last season. "Kansas is getting a very special player in Darrell. He has an exceptional skill level and is very smart. He has a great deal of knowledge about the game." Mays told rivals.com. "Darrell is going to compete hard all of the time and has a wide range of skills. He can play down low or he can step out and shoot from the perimeter." Arthur is the final player to commit to Kansas this season, joining fellow McDonald's AllAmerican Sherron Collins and Lawrence native Brady Morningstar.

Don't play in traffic Wilson is a Windsor, Mo., senior in journalism GIANTS Eric Riisborn/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS San Francisco Giants Barry Bonds is seen in left field in the top of the first inning during the baseball game against the Chicago Cubs in San Francisco on Tuesday. Cardinals pitcher out on disabled list after straining arm muscle MLB BY R.B. FALLSTROM THE ASSOCIATED PRESS ST. LOUIS — Sidney Ponson got the news he expected on Tuesday when the St. Louis Cardinals placed him on the 15-day disabled list with a strained muscle in his right elbow. Ponson, 3-0 with a 2.81 ERA, had to leave Sunday's 9-1 victory against the Florida Marlins after throwing three innings. The Cardinals are calling the injury an acute flexor muscle strain, and for Ponson one day without a move held no suspense. "They gave me a hunch, yes," Ponson said. "If they didn't do it, they'd be one guy short." Off days Thursday and next Monday will allow the Cardinals to get by with a four-man rotation until a three-game series at Kansas City beginning on May 19 when they'd have to call up a pitcher from the minors or have the bullpen combine on a game. Even without that break in the schedule, manager Tony La Russa said the team would be cautious. "I've been working hard on rehab for eight days, working my shoulder, my elbow." Rincon said. "Yesterday I exercised for the doctor. Not good. He says, no more rehab for you." The move was backdated to One of the relievers who's on the DL, left-hander Ricardo Rincon, said he expected to undergo season-ending surgery to repair a shoulder injury and remove bone chips in his elbow later this week. Monday and La Russa said Ponson would not throw for a week. General manager Walt Jocketty said Rincon was jumping the gun. "This just ensures that we're not tempted to rush him," La Russa said. "We just want him to take the 15 days to be sure." St. Louis recalled left-hander Tyler Johnson from Triple-A Memphis to take Ponson's spot, giving the Cardinals eight relievers. "The doctor hasn't said it's surgery for sure yet," Jocketty said. "He's thinking that." Ponson has been relatively happy with the start to his comeback from alcohol problems that led to his release by the Orioles last September, except for an inability to pitch deep into games. He had yet to throw seven innings. "I'm giving the team a chance to win every time I go out there, that's the only thing I worry about," Ponson said. "Like I've said, I'm not big on wins and losses, wins and losses are for my agent in the offseason. "I'm a team guy, you can ask any of the teammates I've played with." The Cardinals were unhappy Rincon kept his physical problems to himself before finally telling them. La Russia also blamed Rincon's participation in the World Baseball Classic for his injuries. "It's the consequence of pitching competitively before you're ready." La Russa said. "It's a very unfair competition for high-profile big-leaguers because they were not ready to compete the first part of March. “it's upsetting when it's over and everybody was 'Oh, hey, this was such a success.'” Rincon, who was placed on the DL on April 28, is 0-0 with a 10.80 ERA in five appearances and has not pitched since April 18. Milner CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B In addition to all of Milner's efforts on the ball diamond his senior year, he has worked hard in the classroom, as well. Milner said he'd played baseball with senior right-hander Kodiak Quick since he was in grade school and his decision to come back became easier when he found Out Quick also was returning. Milner said he was set to graduate this semester, which was yet another reason he had no regrets about coming back to Kansas. Milner's academic success impressed coach Ritch Price. who said baseball players, unlike some student athletes, must dedicate their summers to improving their skills on summer league teams instead of taking summer classes. It's about having a career and not just the opportunity to play and I think he's better prepared to have a career." Price said Milner's second year at Kansas helped him mature as a Ritch Price Coach mature as a player. "It's about having a career and not just the opportunity to play and I think he's better prepared to have a career," Price said. Now armed with the stats against elite competition and the body type that pro scouts loved last season, there's no doubt Milner will be getting another phone call from a MLB organization this June. The only question now is how early that call will come. Price predicted Milner would be picked in the first 10 to 20 rounds. "I'm a senior, so I don't have any leverage anymore," Milner said. "So, hopefully I go in the first 15 rounds and from there hopefully I just get a chance to play and show them what I got." Milner has similar expectations. - Edited by Cynthia Hernandez Kansan Classifieds... 20% discount for students 20% discount for students SUNFLOWER OUTDOOR & BIKE TOBRILL Spring 2006 Thanks for voting us Top of the Hill! 804 Massachusetts St. • Downtown Lawrence (785) 843-5000 • www.sunfloweroutdoorandbike.com Live Music every Wednesday and Sunday HARBOUR LIGHTS Since 1936 1031 Massachusetts MISS.

Blaine was pulled out of the sphere at the seven minute, eight second mark. Trainer: Blaine was in danger BY PAT MILTON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK — David Blaine was unconscious and having convulsions when he was rescued from his 8-foot aquarium during a breath-holding stunt, his trainer said Tuesday. "I wasn't focused on records; I was thinking of a rescue," said trainer Kirk Krack, a free-diving expert. Blaine was convulsing and "unconscious when we brought him to the surface. If we hadn't intervened, he would still be at the bottom of the sphere doing a breath-hold." The 33-year-old illusionist had been submerged in the aquarium with an oxygen mask for a week. Rescue divers jumped into the 2,000-gallon saltwater tank Monday night and hauled him up. He was rescued as he struggled to break a breath-holding record of 8 minutes, 58 seconds. Blaine, who had spent some 177 hours underwater, went without air for 7 minutes, 8 seconds as a finale to his endurance stunt at Lincoln Center, which was televised live on ABC. Blaine checked himself out of Roosevelt Hospital on Tuesday. Friends took him out of the hospital in a wheelchair and then helped him walk to a waiting car. At home, he took a hot shower, played cards and was able to eat. But "he was crying" Monday night, said Dr Murat Gunel, the head of Blaine's medical team. "He still feels today that he let people down." Blaine's liver and kidney functions had suffered while he was submerged but are now improving. His skin, which was peeling Monday night, "looks much better today," said Gunel. His team concluded that the strenuous training and the loss of 50 pounds so his body would require less oxygen had left Blaine too tired before he entered the sphere. They said Blaine wanted to try the breath-holding stunt again. Next time, he planned to be in better shape, and do it without being in a tank for a week beforehand. "He is going over everything he did and analyzing what happened," said Gunel, associate professor of neurosurgery at Yale University School of Medicine. "He is remarkably strong." Blaine started training in December, with some help from Navy SEALS. The water temperature was regulated to help keep his core temperature near 98.6 degrees, and he ate and relieved himself through tubes. "I think he was a great success," said Krack, adding there are only a handful of people who could hold their breath for more than 4 minutes with training. His previous feats included balancing on a 22-inch platform atop a 100-foot pole for 35 hours and being buried alive in a seethrough coffin for a week. ENTERTAINMENT 'Will and Grace' to end BY LYNN ELBER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LOS ANGELES — Once upon a TV season a gay man named Will and a straight woman named Grace became unexpected sitcom darlings, challenging television's timidity toward homosexuality and buffing NBC's comedy crown. Eight years after the debut of "Will & Grace," as the saga of the platonic pals draws to an end, gay characters and themes have emerged on other shows while struggling NBC — and TV in general — searches for the next hit sitcom. While "Will & Grace" nudged cultural and comedic boundaries, however, its success came from sticking to the basics, according to those who made the series: Be funny and be good company. "I think the humor of the program got people there and I think the relationship got people to stay," said Max Mutchnick, who created "Will & Grace" with writing partner David Kohan. "David and I have always said a show creator's job is to put together a television show that consists of a world of people that you either want to be or you want to hang out with." Mutchnick said. "In the case of Will & Grace" it's about friendship. Everybody wants that kind of relationship in their lives. Gay, straight, black or white — that's second to it." Veteran director James Burrows ("Cheers" and "Frasier" are among his many credits) has the clout to choose projects at will but made the unusual decision to stay for the entire 196-episode run as sole director and an executive producer. Why? "It made me laugh every Tuesday night when we shot it in front of an audience," he said. "Will & Grace" was part of NBC's powerful 1990s-born sitcom family that included "Seinfeld" and "Friends" and is the last of its generation to bow out, increasing the void for the ratings-challenged network. Some critics have argued the show's quality ebbed although cast and creators argue it's leaving with head held high, citing its 15 Emmy nominations last year. At its peak in the 2001-02 season the series drew more than 17 million weekly viewers and was the eighth most-watched program. It's been watched by an average 7.8 million viewers in its final season, which concludes May 18. "It's time go out," Burrows said. "America was not watching it like they used to watch it. I can't tell you why. It's as funny as it was ever funny." The show's banter swooped between high sophistication and low bawdiness, turning tender when Will and Grace (Erie McCornack, Debra Messing) hit bumpes in their friendship or love lives. Add a couple of sidekicks who expertly stole the spotlight, Karen and the outrageously gay Jack, (Megan Mullally, Sean Hayes), and viewers were hooked. "Eight years ago, a show with two gay guys would have seemed niche," said McCormack. "The opposite's happened. Kids watch it, old women watch it. Everyone wanted to know when Will was getting a bovfriend." The character finally did, although the series played gay sexuality more for laughs — especially through the flamboyant Jack — than unabashed and open passion. That was largely left to Grace and her succession of lovers. The show didn't "lead with its chin" when it began, said McCormack, explaining that the network had reservations about highlighting the homosexuality of Will, a serious-minded attorney. "We could have easily made this a much more controversial show and maybe it would have been a hotter topic. But we might have ended after six episodes," he said. Play with this!

The Price brothers presently call the same house home. Czyz said he may move in with younger brother, freshman lefty Nick Czyz, next year. "Teammates are brothers," Baty said. "It doesn't matter, you can have your individual differences, dislikes and likes, but when it comes to baseball — that's the equalizer." Even though Baty used to spend his time as the other half of shortstop Price's double play combination at second base, he proved his transition to center field would not harm Kansas in the field. Although they no longer cover the middle infield together, Price and Baty had much to do with the string of 30-plus victories in their four consecutive seasons at Kansas. "They are three of the best guys in America," coach Price said. "I call those guys the 'big three' because they've been with me all four years — since I've been here. They've been a big part of the turnaround." Price neglects to visit their homes, though. "I allow them to be a player, I allow them to be a teammate," coach Price said. "It's the same when they go home. I have never been to their house in the three years that they've been off-campus and I won't go. I try to give them that right and that privilege that every college student has." Ritchie Price said his mom stopped by twice a year to clean the house. Price said that his dad not stopping by was his own preference. "He'd never set foot in our house because I don't think he wants to know what goes on inside," Price said. With more than 60 games per season, fly balls and base hits aren't the only things on the captains' minds. "We don't always talk about the game, believe it or not," Czyz said. "We do go through the same problems that normal college students go through — girls, school, stuff like that." Then again, they also go through things normal college students do not go through. The captains will be out of eligibility next season, but won't be done at the University for another semester.

Blaine was pulled out of the sphere at the seven minute, eight second mark. Trainer: Blaine was in danger BY PAT MILTON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK — David Blaine was unconscious and having convulsions when he was rescued from his 8-foot aquarium during a breath-holding stunt, his trainer said Tuesday. "I wasn't focused on records; I was thinking of a rescue," said trainer Kirk Krack, a free-diving expert. Blaine was convulsing and "unconscious when we brought him to the surface. If we hadn't intervened, he would still be at the bottom of the sphere doing a breath-hold." The 33-year-old illusionist had been submerged in the aquarium with an oxygen mask for a week. Rescue divers jumped into the 2,000-gallon saltwater tank Monday night and hauled him up. He was rescued as he struggled to break a breath-holding record of 8 minutes, 58 seconds. Blaine, who had spent some 177 hours underwater, went without air for 7 minutes, 8 seconds as a finale to his endurance stunt at Lincoln Center, which was televised live on ABC. Blaine checked himself out of Roosevelt Hospital on Tuesday. Friends took him out of the hospital in a wheelchair and then helped him walk to a waiting car. At home, he took a hot shower, played cards and was able to eat. But "he was crying" Monday night, said Dr. Murat Gunel, the head of Blaine's medical team. "He still feels today that he let people down." Blaine's liver and kidney functions had suffered while he was submerged but are now improving. His skin, which was peeling Monday night, "looks much better today," said Gunel. His team concluded that the strenuous training and the loss of 50 pounds so his body would require less oxygen had left Blaine too tired before he entered the sphere. They said Blaine wanted to try the breath-holding stunt again. Next time, he planned to be in better shape, and do it without being in a tank for a week beforehand. "He is going over everything he did and analyzing what happened," said Gunel, associate professor of neurosurgery at Yale University School of Medicine. "He is remarkably strong." Blaine started training in December, with some help from Navy SEALS. The water temperature was regulated to help keep his core temperature near 98.6 degrees, and he ate and relieved himself through tubes. "I think he was a great success," said Krack, adding there are only a handful of people who could hold their breath for more than 4 minutes with training. His previous feats included balancing on a 22-inch platform atop a 100-foot pole for 35 hours and being buried alive in a see-through coffin for a week. ENTERTAINMENT 'Will and Grace' to end BY LYNN ELBER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LOS ANGELES — Once upon a TV season a gay man named Will and a straight woman named Grace became unexpected sitcom darlings, challenging television's timidity toward homosexuality and buffing NBC's comedy crown. Eight years after the debut of "Will & Grace," as the saga of the platonic pals draws to an end, gay characters and themes have emerged on other shows while struggling NBC — and TV in general — searches for the next hit sitcom. While "Will & Grace" nudged cultural and comedic boundaries, however, its success came from sticking to the basics, according to those who made the series: Be funny and be good company. company. "I think the humor of the program got people there and I think the relationship got people to stay," said Max Mutchnick, who created "Will & Grace" with writing partner David Kohan. "David and I have always said a show creator's job is to put together a television show that consists of a world of people that you either want to be or you want to hang out with," Mutchick said. "In the case of Will & Grace' it's about friendship. Everybody wants that kind of relationship in their lives. Gay, straight, black or white — that's second to it." "Will & Grace" was part of NBC's powerful 1990s-born sitcom family that included "Seinfeld" and "Friends" and is the last of its generation to bow out, increasing the void for the ratings-challenged network. Some critics have argued the show's quality ebbed although cast and creators argue it's leaving with head held high, citing its 15 Emmy nominations last year. Veteran director James Burrows ("Cheers" and "Frasier" are among his many credits) has the clout to choose projects at will but made the unusual decision to stay for the entire 196-episode run as sole director and an executive producer. Why? "It made me laugh every Tuesday night when we shot it in front of an audience," he said. "It's time go out," Burrows said. "America was not watching it like they used to watch it. I can't tell you why. It's as funny as it was ever funny." At its peak in the 2001-02 season the series drew more than 17 million weekly viewers and was the eighth most-watched program. It's been watched by an average 7.8 million viewers in its final season, which concludes May 18. The show's banter swooped between high sophistication and low bawdiness, turning tender when Will and Grace (Eric McCormack, Debra Messing) hit bumps in their friendship or love lives. Add a couple of sidekicks who expertly stole the spotlight, Karen and the outrageously gay Jack, (Megan Mullaly, Sean Hayes), and viewers were hooked. "Eight years ago, a show with two gay guys would have seemed niche," said McCormack. "The opposite's happened. Kids watch it, old women watch it. Everyone wanted to know when Will was getting a bowfriend." The character finally did, although the series played gay sexuality more for laughs — especially through the flamboyant Jack — than unabashed and open passion. That was largely left to Grace and her succession of lovers. The show didn't "lead with its chin" when it began, said McCormack, explaining that the network had reservations about highlighting the homosexuality of Will, a serious-minded attorney. "We could have easily made this a much more controversial show and maybe it would have been a hotter topic. But we might have ended after six episodes," he said. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Play with this!

The Price brothers presently call the same house home. Czyz said he may move in with younger brother, freshman lefty Nick Czyz, next year. "Teammates are brothers," Baty said. "It doesn't matter, you can have your individual differences, dislikes and likes, but when it comes to baseball — that's the equalizer." Even though Baty used to spend his time as the other half of shortstop Price's double play combination at second base, he proved his transition to center field would not harm Kansas in the field. Although they no longer cover the middle infield together, Price and Baty had much to do with the string of 30-plus victories in their four consecutive seasons at Kansas. "They are three of the best guys in America," coach Price said. "I call those guys the 'big three' because they've been with me all four years — since I've been here. They've been a big part of the turnaround." Price neglects to visit their homes, though. "I allow them to be a player, I allow them to be a teammate," coach Price said. "It's the same when they go home. I have never been to their house in the three years that they've been off-campus and I won't go. I try to give them that right and that privilege that every college student has." Ritchie Price said his mom stopped by twice a year to clean the house. Price said that his dad not stopping by was his own preference. "He'd never set foot in our house because I don't think he wants to know what goes on inside," Price said. With more than 60 games per season, fly balls and base hits aren't the only things on the captains' minds. Then again, they also go through things normal college students do not go through. "We don't always talk about the game, believe it or not," Czyz said. "We do go through the same problems that normal college students go through — girls, school, stuff like that." Arthur CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B Czyz said a couple of years ago, while the Jayhawks were preparing to play Missouri, they came outside to people throwing, beer bottles at their house. The house-pegging didn't end in a fight, and Czyz said the ordeal was actually entertaining. "There's been neighbors having late night parties and us going out there and people wanting to fight us," Czyz said. "There's been people breaking windows in our house, and kids lighting bags of poop on fire and putting them on our front porch." The captains will be out of eligibility next season, but won't be done at the University for another semester. After Indiana coach Mike Davis resigned from Indiana, Kansas appeared to be the front-runner for Arthur, but then Arthur chose to look at new schools after the Final Four and even took an unofficial visit to LSU. It was speculated that Kansas was out of the running when Arthur returned from his visit to LSU because it, as well as Baylor, were able to offer more playing time. "I feel very good about Darrell's decision to attend Kansas," Arthur's high school coach James Mays told rivals.com. "I know that his mother and grandmother feel the same way. We were going to support Darrell no matter what because we wanted this to be his decision." Baty will take two summer classes and will graduate from Kansas after completing an internship with the Big 12 Conference in Dallas next fall. Price and Czyz have one more semester before they're finished playing at Kansas. "I've already offered everyone on my team a job once I become a big time athletic director like Lew Perkins," Baty said with a laugh. — Edited by Lindsey St. Clair Arthur led his high school to back-to-back Texas 4A state titles in March. He averaged 18 points, 10 rebounds and six blocked shots per game last season. "Kansas is getting a very special player in Darrell. He has an exceptional skill level and is very smart. He has a great deal of knowledge about the game." Mays told rivals.com. "Darrell is going to compete hard all of the time and has a wide range of skills. He can play down low or he can step out and shoot from the perimeter." Arthur is the final player to commit to Kansas this season, joining fellow McDonald's AllAmerican Sherron Collins and Lawrence native Brady Morningstar. - Edited by Matt Wilson If you are tight on cash, this is the best place to experience a KU sporting event.

Cardinals pitcher out on disabled list after straining arm muscle MLB BY R.B. FALLSTROM THE ASSOCIATED PRESS ST. LOUIS — Sidney Ponson got the news he expected on Tuesday when the St. Louis Cardinals placed him on the 15-day disabled list with a strained muscle in his right elbow. Ponson, 3-0 with a 2.81 ERA, had to leave Sunday's 9-1 victory against the Florida Marlins after throwing three innings. The Cardinals are calling the injury an acute flexor muscle strain, and for Ponson one day without a move held no suspense. "They gave me a hunch, yes," Ponson said. "If they didn't do it, they'd be one guy short." Off days Thursday and next Monday will allow the Cardinals to get by with a four-man rotation until a three-game series at Kansas City beginning on May 19 when they'd have to call up a pitcher from the minors or have the bullpen combine on a game. Even without that break in the schedule, manager Tony La Russa said the team would be cautious. Monday and La Russia said Ponson would not throw for a week St. Louis recalled left-hander Tyler Johnson from Triple-A Memphis to take Ponson's spot, giving the Cardinals eight relievers. "This just ensures that we're not tempted to rush him," La Russa said. "We just want him to take the 15 days to be sure." The move was backdated to "I've been working hard on rehab for eight days, working my shoulder, my elbow," Rincon said. "Yesterday I exercised for the doctor. Not good. He says, no more rehab for you." General manager Walt Jotketty said Rincon was jumping the gun. "The doctor hasn't said it's surgery for sure yet," Jocketty said. "He's thinking that." Ponson has been relatively happy with the start to his comeback from alcohol problems that led to his release by the Orioles last September, except for an inability to put deep into games. He had yet to throw seven innings. "I'm giving the team a chance to win every time I go out there, that's the only thing I worry about," Ponson said. "Like I've said, I'm not big on wins and losses, wins and losses are for my agent in the offseason. "I'm a team guy, you can ask any of the teammates I've played with." The Cardinals were unhappy Rincon kept his physical problems to himself before finally telling them. La Russa also blamed Rincon's participation in the World Baseball Classic for his injuries. "It's the consequence of pitching competitively before you're ready." La Russa said. "It's a very unfair competition for high-profile big-leaguers because they were not ready to compete the first part of March. "It's upsetting when it's over and everybody was 'Oh, hey, this was such a success.'" Rincon, who was placed on the DL on April 28, is 0-0 with a 10.80 ERA in five appearances and has not pitched since April 18. Milner CONTINUED FROM PAGE 18 In addition to all of Milner's efforts on the ball diamond his senior year, he has worked hard in the classroom, as well. Milner said he'd played baseball with senior right-hander Kodiak Quick since he was in grade school and his decision to come back became easier when he found Quick also was returning. Milner said he was set to graduate this semester, which was yet another reason he had no regrets about coming back to Kansas. Milner's academic success impressed coach Ritch Price, who said baseball players, unlike some student athletes, must dedicate their summers to improving their skills on summer league teams instead of taking summer classes. It's about having a career and not just the opportunity to play and I think he's better prepared to have a career." Ritch Price Coach mature as a player. "It's about having a career and not just the opportunity to play and I think he's better prepared to have a career," Price said. Now armed with the stats against elite competition and the body type that pro scouts loved last season, there's no doubt Milner will be getting another phone call from a MLB organization this June. The only question now is how early that call will come. Price predicted Milner would be picked in the first 10 to 20 rounds. Milner has similar expectations. "I'm a senior, so I don't have any leverage anymore," Milner said. "So, hopefully I go in the first 15 rounds and from there hopefully I just get a chance to play and show them what I got." — Edited by Cynthia Hernandez Kansan Classifieds... 20% discount for students SUNFLOWER OUTDOOR Bike TOP HILL Spring 2006 Thanks for voting us Top of the Hill! 804 Massachusetts St. • Downtown Lawrence (785) 843-5000 • www.sunfloweroutdoorbike.com Live Music every Wednesday and Sunday HARBOLL LIGHTS Since 1936 1031 Massachusetts MISS.

On May 1, the Kansas women's golf team learned its fate. Another year, another missed opportunity to participate in the NCAA regionals. Junior Amanda Costner will participate in the individual regional May 11 to 13 at The Traditions golf course in College Station, Texas. Costner is one of 324 participants in the regional competition. Of those, 126 will move on to the NCAA Championships, held at the Scarlet Course in Columbus, Ohio. Costner was the first Jayhawk women's golfer to make the event since Holly Reynolds in 1993. Throw in an AllBig 12 first team selection, and this has been an exciting time for the junior. "I'm very honored, I feel proud," Costner said. "I'm excited, and it motivates me to want to work hard out there and represent Kansas the best I can. I like my chances if I bring my A game." Costner led the Jayhawks this spring with a 75.78 stroke average. Costner was a large factor in the Jayhawks only victory of the season when she shot a season-low 69 in the final round of the Mountain View Collegiate. She put together four top 20 finishes and another top 10 finish. Costner let her play speak for itself, leading the team in four of the six tournaments this spring. She stressed the role that coach Erin O'Neil had in the development of her game. "It's great to see that work pay off," O'Neil said. "She has put a lot of time and effort into her game to get it to that level." Costner will have the support of her family, which lives in Oklahoma, at the tournament. One of her teammates will attend as well. "She by far deserves to be going to regionals," senior Chelsey Pryor said. "We are all just so proud of her, support her, and just can't wait to see how she does." Edited by Matt Wilson NFL Walker set to extend contract with Broncos BY ARNIE STAPLETON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS DENVER — Javon Walker is set to sign a five-year extension worth more than $40 million with the Denver Broncos, who acquired the wide receiver in a draft-day deal. "We do have a deal in place," Walker's agent, Kennard McGuire, wrote in an e-mail to The Associated Press. "I can't give you details," McGuire added, other than to confirm the extension was worth between $40 million and $42 million. The Broncos have a policy of not discussing financial terms of contracts. Walker, who is still recovering from a major knee injury he sustained in last year's season opener, is expected to sign the pact today. The extension will take him through 2011. Walker, 27, is due to make $1.15 million next season and a $1 million roster bonus, part of the five-year, $7.485 million rookie contract that he signed in Green Bay after joining the Packers as a first-round draft pick out of Florida State in 2002. Walker began seeking a bigger paycheck more than a year ago after he made the Pro Bowl following the 2004 season, when caught 89 passes for 1,382 yards and 12 touchdowns. He hired agent Drew Rosenhaus, who said there was no way Walker could risk injury playing for slightly more than $500,000 in 2005. Walker's summer-long threats to hold out drew the ier of quarterback Brett Favre, who said Walker should live up to his contract, which at the time had two years remaining. Surprisingly, Walker reversed course and reported to training camp without any assurances from the Packers that they would re-negotiate his contract. Then, in the season opener at Detroit he tore a ligament in his right knee that sidelined him for the remainder of the season. Walker fired Rosenhaus and hired McGuire, then announced in the offseason that he'd rather retire than play again for the Packers. General manager Ted Thomp son gave Walker permission to talk to other teams and the Broncos met with him on the eve of the draft, when they determined his recovery was going well and that they could meet his contract demands. They agreed on the parameters of a five-year extension and sent the Packers a second-round pick on April 29. If Walker can return to his pre-injury form, he would become the Broncos' best playmaker and give them a deep threat opposite Rod Smith to open up the offense. Walker, who has been working out in Arizona, will continue his rehab in Denver, where he'll take a crash course in the playbook but won't likely do any field work until late July. MLB Buck huge in Royal win BY DOUG TUCKER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS KANSAS CITY, Mo. — John Buck drove in four runs with a single and a three-run homer and the Kansas City Royals beat Cleveland 10-7 on Tuesday night, their fourth straight victory over the Indians. Buck, who hit his first homer of the season on Monday, had an RBI single in the fourth inning and then clubbed a 422-foot shot off reliever Danny Graves (2-1) in a six-run sixth. He went 3-for-3. Aaron Guel had three RBIs, including a solo homer in the fourth and a two-run single to cap the sixth. Their 17 hits were a season high for the Royals, who have won four of six after starting 5-20 and prompting owner David Glass to promise "significant changes" which have not yet been made. Kerry Robinson and Tony Graffanino also had three hits for the Royals. Graves relieved starter Jason Johnson with two on, no outs and the Indians leading 6-4, but the light-hitting Buck hit a 2-2 pitch over the wall in left. Mark Grudzielanek, who went 4-for-4, then doubled and with two outs Graffainino hit a shot off the glove of third baseman Aaron Boone that went for an RBI double. Joel Peralta (1-0) got the victory with 2 1/3 innings of tworun relief. Victor Martinez hit a tiebreaking two-run single off Peralta in the top of the sixth for a 6-4 lead.

They could take the mumps virus home with them. Patricia Denning, Watkins Memorial Health Center chief of staff, said the mumps could spread from its Douglas County center. She expected the number of cases to somewhat subside in the Lawrence area, but grow in the surrounding communities where students might stay for the summer. The incubation period for mumps averages between 16 and 18 days, but can last from 12 to 25 days. The incubation period for mumps averages between 16 and 18 days, but can last from 12 to 25 days. That means symptoms might not appear for more than three weeks after initial exposure. Students would return to Johnson County from Lawrence regardless of whether they're infectious, she said. The department would rely on infected people to act responsibly and stay home. Nancy Tausz, division director of disease containment for the Johnson County Health Department, said the department was aware of the outbreak in Douglas County and would conti- ue its mumps surveillance.

Denning said the same recovery recommendations of isolation and rest from campus applied at home, including keeping distance between The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends that people who will be traveling to mumps-infected areas, such as Lawrence for graduation, should be fully vaccinated to be best protected against the disease. Infected people should limit travel, namely on airplanes, but take precautions such as covering coughs and sneezes, washing their hands and avoiding close contact with others if they do travel. -Edited by Meghan Miller MUMPS COUNT Here are the number of mumps cases as of Wednesday afternoon. These numbers include probable and confirmed cases.

Peanut nestled between the legs of Casey Grady and covered her eyes with puppy-sized paws, trying to get comfortable under the warm afternoon sun as the Wichita sophomore rubbed the puppy's spotted stomach. Fifteen minutes later, Grady apologetically fastened the blue leash around the brown and black puppy's neck for the journey back to the puppy's cage inside the Lawrence Humane Society. Grady is one of 100 student volunteers as the Lawrence Humane Society, which housed more than 7,000 animals last year. The shelter, considered the "go-to" shelter in the state of Kansas, may soon be even more crowded. With the KU school year end ing and a part of Lawrence's transient college-aged population moving for the summer break, as many as 75 animals could be abandoned at the shelter, said Midge Grinstead, executive director of the Lawrence Humane Society. It's depressing to see college students dump animals like televisions and desks at the end of the year, like animals are nothing more than a piece of paper, she said. To prepare for the spring rush, the shelter staff has been cleaning and repairing the facilities. They've also managed to open additional space at the shelter by releasing numerous small kittens and puppies to temporary foster care at private homes.

SEE DOMINOS ON PAGE 3A RELIGION New Chabad house in town BY ANNE WELTMER aweltmer@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Group not competing with Hillel Those wanting to learn about and practice Judaism have another option at the University of Kansas. Two weeks ago, Rabbi Zalman Tiechtel, his wife Nechama, and his infant daughter Mina, opened a Chabad Jewish Center in their new home at 1201 W. 19th St. Chabad offers an opportunity for Jewish students to experience what it's like in an Orthodox Jewish home — a home that practices all 613 laws of Judaism. "We like to call ourselves the Google for anything Jewish," he said. Chabad is one of the largest Jewish outreach organizations in the world. One of its original goals was to rebuild Judaism after the Holocaust. The KU Chabad Center is one of many, including 151 on university campuses and one in each state except Montana. Chabad offers classes about Jewish law, customs and holidays. It also offers trips, weekend retreats, kosher barbecues, Shabbat dinners and other social events. "Wherever there's Coca-Cola, there's Chabad," Tiechtel joked. Though Tiechtel practices Orthodox Judaism, he said the goal of the center is to reach each of the 1,800 Jewish students on campus, no matter their level of practice. He said he didn't believe that anyone was more or less of a Jew depending on how many rules they followed or what type of services they attended. He said he wanted to help students proudly identify themselves as Jewish and to "learn it, live it and love it." The center will work in conjunction with KU Hillel on many of its programs next fall, Tiechtel said.

By DIRK NEWTON editor@kansan.com KANSAN CORRESPONDENT May 10, 1921 - McCook Field, the football stadium prior to Memorial is torn down by 4.000 members of the student and faculty bodies. The destruction took the group a mere hour and 18 minutes, which they followed with a free barbecue from the University of Kansas. The field, which had seen 30 years of sub-pur play and a 27-4 victory in its 1892 opener against Illinois, was built after a $2,500 donation from Col. John James McCook. The original stadium held 800 fans and by 1911 it held its maximum of 10,000. And, as the program grew and the stadium began to crumble, the school decided it would build a memorial for the 130 KU students who had died in World War I. May 10, 1942 - 47 doctors and 52 nurses of the KU Medical School, known as the 77th Evacuation Hospital Unit, got On October 29,1921, Memorial Stadium was officially christened, although it was only partially built in a game against Kansas State. $ \textcircled{c} $ 2006 University of Kansas Memorial Corporation All rights reserved this week in KU HISTORY The Associated Press may 8 - may 12 the call of a lifetime from the U.S. government when it was asked to assist in World War II. Maj. Gen. James C. Magee, former Surgeon General of the Army, wrote the dean of the School of Medicine, Harry R. Wahl, because in Magee's words, Kansas had one the country's "outstanding civil medical institutions." Wahl, served as a Major in the Army's Medical Corps in World War I and was able to offer his guidance to those who would be making the trip. Wahl later selected Dr. Edward Hashinger, also a World War I veteran, as the unit director. In 1940 and 1941, the group was preparing for upcoming events and were called into duty early December in 1941 after Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor. The 77th Unit was sent to Missouri's Fort Leonard Wood for basic training. By May, 1942, the 77th Unit was asked to return to Fort Leonard Wood and left New York City for Liverpool, England, July 31, and arrived by Aug. 17 after dodging German U-boats scattered throughout the Atlantic Ocean. For the next 10 weeks, the 77th Unit prepared for the hard times it would see by working at a children's hospital that had converted to house American GIs in England who had been sick or injured. After a year of activity, the 77th Unit felt like it wasn't contributing enough to the American war effort. After remaining stationed in the same location instead of moving with the troops, it was finally ordered to move near the Algerian-Tunisian borders. mandy, a month after D-Day. It was in that location that the 77th Unit saw the worst the war had seen at that point. In its first 12 hours, the 77th Unit took in over 1,200 casualties and averaged 44 patients an hour for six days. For the next year and a half, the 77th Unit bounced from war front to war front, eventually landing it at the beach at Nor- Five months later, the 77th Unit was moved to Verviers, Belgium, for the Battle of the Bulge. In 1944, the 77th Unit saw an estimated 35,000 patients and almost 21,000 were casualties from its stop in Verviers that lasted five weeks. Of the 25, 408 patients that they had seen, only 94 died at a later date. Amazingly, no one in the 77th Unit died while serving.

Paul Stein, 32, of Kokomo, was taken to the Montgomery County jail on a public intoxication charge when he crawled through a hatch in his holding cell, they said. "It is there so we can get up there and fix plumbing and lighting problems," said jail officer Robin Threlkeld. "He was able to open the door and pull himself up and through somehow, and then he fell down through a panel in the lobby" Stein wasn't injured in the fall Saturday at the jail in Crawfordsville, about 45 miles northwest of Indianapolis. "His feet came through tirst" said Montgomery County Sheriff Dennis Rice. Authorities were investigating how Stein was able to open the panel. Stein faces an additional preliminary charge of escape and remained in custody Tuesday.

Chabad CONTINUED FROM 1A Chabad and Hillel provide different atmospheres that suit different students. Tiechtel said Chabad is different in that it is more like a home and family because he, his wife and his daughter are there 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Jay Lewis, executive director of KU Hillel, said Hillel's job, as the most broad-based Jewish organization on campus, is to support anything Jewish at the University, ranging from the Jewish studies minor through the University and KU Chabad. He said he was happy that there were more options for Jewish students and thought few students would choose only one organization to attend. Lewis himself, plans to attend Chabad events. "It's going to be kind of an overall partnership," Lewis said, adding that there was "no sense of competition for students" between the organizations. Tiechtel said Chabad had been well-received at the University and he has felt a "warm, welcoming, open-minded" feeling from everyone. He said the center came to the University after Chabad headquarters received many requests from students, faculty and parents. When he heard it was looking to open a chapter, he wanted to get BY DEVLIN BARRETT THE ASSOCIATED PRESS involved. Tiechtel moved to Lawrence from Brooklyn, New York, where he taught at a Talmud seminary with his wife, to start the center. He said he had brothers all over the world who operate Chabad centers, including centers in Berlin and Tennessee, WASHINGTON — Anyplace else, the scarred concrete steps would be an eyesore. At ground zero on Sept. 11, 2001 they were a last chance for escape. Now they stand as the last surviving above-ground piece of the World Trade Center. nessie, "It's been in my blood," Tiechtel said, "I've always been aspiring to it." "The "Survivors Staircase" was named one of the nation's most endangered historic places Wednesday, along with whole swaths of New Orleans and Mississippi damaged by Hurricane Katrina. By singling out the staircase and sections of the South, the National Trust for Historic Preservation is seeking to preserve areas hit by the two biggest American disasters of recent memory. Katrina, noted Trust president Richard Moe, "damaged more historic homes than any event in the history of the country." The Trust is a private nonprofit group founded in 1949. To Sept. 11 survivor Patty Clark, the Trade Center staircase is "symbolic of all of us Edited by Cynthia Hernandez who were witnesses to that day. It's still strong, somewhat damaged, but that's kind of like we all are." prin group. You're in New York, the rumbling of construction around ground zero has weakened the staircase, and it is not included in plans for a new tower. Clark and other employees of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey used the staircase to escape Tower 1 after the terror attacks in New York. She had already walked down 65 flights of stairs when she got to the World Trade Center plaza. Debris from Tower 2, which had just collapsed, filled the plaza, leaving the open-air air-circase as the only way out. She and other employees followed the stairs down to ground level at Vesey Street and raced north, escaping just minutes before their own tower collapsed. "For people who got out of the building, it was by steps, so steps are very important to the people who lived," she said. Supporters say they could live with seeing the staircase moved in order to preserve it, as long as it isn't placed far from its original site. Moe said most people don't know the staircase remains, since it is closed to the public. "It's an enormously important artifact," he said. In the South, historic Mississippi towns and New Orleans neighborhoods face demolition after the 2005 hurricane. Dominos CONTINUED FROM 1A He said Domino's delivery drivers even knew some students on a first name basis Troy Green, owner of the Lawrence Domino's, will meet again with the winners to give them their cashier's checks, which are set up for them to use for books and tuition next year. Green said that Domino's established a relationship with Green said the buzz about the competition generated an increase in orders, as well as an increase in the usage of KUID payment options. He said Domino's would continue the competition next year during the spring semester. the University this year by allowing KU Cuisine and Beak Em Bucks as payment options and wanted to give back to the students.

The two have been volunteering their time at the shelter since the beginning of the year. They come every Wednesday and Friday and try to play with at least five dogs a piece. Pets CONTINUED FROM 1A Ginstead said the number of pets in the shelter would continue to increase until the end of the summer, reaching up to 1,000 animals before the number would begin to decrease. Gwen Gerdsen, Wichita senior, worked at the shelter for a year. She said the worst part of the job was the intake desk, where people left animals they couldn't, or wouldn't, care for. Most people who leave their pets never anticipated how much of a responsibility a pet would be, she said. Some people legitimately have to leave their animal, she said. But a lot of people don't tell the truth and shouldn't have had the pet in the first place, she said. One woman brought in her cat because the feline wouldn't use a litter box. More than half of the adoption applications made by college students are not approved. Many "try to be sneaky" on their applications, Grinstead said, by giving false information about their apartments' pet policies and where the pet would be living. The Humane Society is proactive about making sure pets are treated properly. They visit the homes of recently adopted pets and recover animals that are mistreated or not living according to what was agreed upon in the adoption application, she said. A cause for improvement Sue Novak, president of the Lawrence Humane Society board of directors, said the shelter currently sets the example for the other shelters in the state. But 10 years ago, the shelter was deep in debt and had a bad relationship with the surrounding community. The biggest change, Novak said, happened when Grinstead became director nine years ago. Grinstead's work gave the shelter credibility in the community and the nation, she said. The shelter switched cleaning products and vaccines, which made the animals healthier, and reduced its euthanasia rate from 80 percent to less than 15 percent. As a full-service shelter, they accept any animal for any reason and refuse to euthanize animals for space reasons. The animals that are euthanized — about 9 percent of dogs and 20 percent of cats — are typically too sick or injured to continue living or they have a violent temper, preventing them from being adopted for safety reasons. To control the animal population, the Lawrence shelter spays or neuters every animal older than eight weeks. Grinstead also offers local pet owners subsidies totaling $28,000 per year for the same procedures to be performed for non-adopted pets in order to lower the total number of animals in the community The offspring from two cats alone, assuming all survived, could produce more than 80 million cats in 10 years, Grinstead said. The Humane Society also assists animal control with cruelty and neglect investigations, the only Kansas shelter to do so. About 150 of the 750 investigations last year ended with the Humane Society the animal tions were not met, the Humane Society intervened and took the pet. "They're happy to see you. You don't have to do anything to make them happy." One of the shelter's largest accomplishments was getting a Kansas law passed this year that made animal cruelty a felony. After eight years of legislative disregard for her propos Humane Society confiscating the animal. the animal. Grinstead said the Humane Society's main goal was to help animals, so she provided owners with pointers for solving minor problems that were identified in the investigations, such as how to handle a pet's frustrating behavioral problems. In more severe cases, Grinstead would require that the pet receive veterinary care. When the condi- Casey Grady Wichita sophomore als, Grinstead founded the Humane Kansas Legislative Network, Inc., and hired lobbyists Hurley and Associates of Topeka to get the new law adopted. Novak said Novak said the hardest thing was raising money for the shelter. A portion of the shelter's funds come from the city and county, but more than half comes from donations and fundraisers, including this weekend's sponsored walk called Mutt 'n Strutt. Last December, the shelter received a $42,000 donation that allowed them to continue operating until city funds arrived in January. A Lawrence resident dedicated the money to the shelter in her will. ing to care for them full-time - an easy alternative to taking on the responsibility of having your own pet while in college. own pet white in college. While the nine full-time and four part-time staff members provide the animals with food and clean cages, the volunteers have all the fun, Grinstead said. After completing a brief training session, volunteers are able to walk dogs, pet cats and groom the animals. Grady and Megan, Plumb Overland Park sophomore, volunteer at the shelter once a week for a few hours. On each trip, they walk two to three puppies and a few older dogs, who explore and exercise in one of the larger outdoor enclosures. Taking the animals outside brings their personalities to life, Grady said. The older dogs can travel outside with their kennel mates, but puppies like Peanut live and play alone. While alone indoors, Peanut passively waits for attention. When outdoors, she bounces around a grassy enclosure in the shelter's front yard and alternates bursts of hyperactive running with calmly enjoying the attention the two volunteers give her.

Lots of cats are abandoned at the end of the school year because students are unable to keep or care for their pets.

Last month, the Humane Society signed a deal with Hill's Science Diet — a Topeka-based pet food company which will provide high-quality pet food for the shelter and save it $38,000 on food. Donating time Plumb's own family adopted their dog Destin, a white, German Shepard-lab mix, from a Kansas City-area shelter. Volunteering at the shelter helped her miss Destin a little less. Although she began volunteering to fulfill her sorority's required service hours, she said it was the best volunteer work she'd ever done. Grinstead encourages more KU students to join the 300 total volunteers at the shelter. Volunteering is a "good way to get unconditional love from the animals," she said, without hav- With finals approaching, students are sporadic in their volunteer efforts, Grinstead said. But playing with the dogs provided a relaxing break from school. Grady's family dachshund, Olive, died last semester. Working with shelter dogs has helped her recover from the grief. Grady said they volunteered as much for themselves as they did for the dogs. "They're happy to see you," she said. "You don't have to do anything to make them happy."

Marissa Rosenblum, Kansas City, Mo., said the project allowed the group to help a respectful organization. Through analyzing the shelter's needs, she learned that students could still volunteer their time to help increase community awareness of the shelter's needs and goals, despite not having the money to help financially, she said. The 10 groups presented their work to Grinstead at the end of April. She said the Humane Society planned on adding some of the students' proposed events and ideas to their current fundraising and publicity campaign, including a Valentine's Dayevent and poker parties. The students also suggested that it be the host of animal rights seminars and recruit more involvement from the Greek community. Playtime MUTT 'N' STRUTT FUNDRAISER Who: Lawrence Humane Society.

If she didn't live in a sorority, she said she would take the puppy home with her. Each week she goes in hoping to play with Peanut. But at the same time, she hopes Peanut can find a home where she will get attention from a full-time family, instead of just occasional visitors. — Edited by Jodi Ann Holopirek Crackdown on cruelty LAWRENCE BY RACHEL A SEYMOUR editor@kansan.com KANSAN CORRESPONDENT State ups penalty, makes animal cruelty a felony Betsy McLeod returned home last September to find her bunny's cage empty. The bunny, Coco, wasn't hiding under the bed or with McLeod's roommates though. She was dead. The bunny that McLeod, Overland Park sophomore, bought nearly three months before had been thrown off her balcony by a man who claimed he was too drunk to know what he was doing. "He blamed it on his alcoholism," McLeod said. On Sept. 28, that man went to court for charges of animal cruelty. He was sentenced to probation and fined $200. McLeod said she thought it was nothing more than a slap on the wrist for his actions. At the time animal cruelty was not considered a felony in the state of Kansas. Today, intentional animal cruelty is a felony according to the Senate Bill 408. For Midge Grinstead, director of the Lawrence Humane Society, the bill was a nine-year battle. The bill finally passed unanimously through the house in March. Just last month Gov. Kathleen Sebelius signed the bill into law. "It not only passed, but it was a slam dunk," Grinstead said. According to the bill, people convicted of intentional animal cruelty will be sentenced to jail for a minimum of 30 days or a maximum of one year and fixed $500 to $5,000 depending on the severity of the abuse. They must have a psychological evaluation while in jail and they cannot own an animal for the next five years. People convicted of international animal cruelty will be sentenced to jail for a minimum 30 days or a maximum of one year and fined $500 to $5,000. For McLeod though, the bill came too late. "I wish they would have made it a felony a long time ago," McLeod said. "It should have been a felony." The Lawrence Humane Society performed more than 750 investigations on animal cruelty and neglect last year according to Grinstead. About 20 percent of the investigations resulted in the animals being removed from the home. Dogs, especially larger breeds such as pit bulls and rottweilers, account for a majority of animal cruelty cases, Grinstead said. The most common type of abuse for all animals the Humane Society sees is neglect. Under the new law, neglect isn't automatically a felony; only on the second offense of neglect can a person be convicted of a felony. Animals that are removed from homes because of abuse or neglect are taken in at the Humane Society. After the police department gives releases for the animals, they can be adopted. Background checks for animal cruelty are done on anyone adopting a pet. People interesting in adopting an animal rescued from abuse are informed about the animal's history before adopting. Knowing the history of the pet doesn't discourage people from adopting though. "I think they all want to help." Grinstead said. "People are very sympathetic and want to adopt." Holly Romero, Colorado Springs, Colo., senior, is one such person. Last fall she went to nearly every pet store in Lawrence in search of a ferret, She ended up at the Humane Society. Quentin, a neglected ferret, arrived at the shelter with a family of ferrets. "If you can take in an animal that's been abused or neglected it's an amazing thing," Romero. "I immediately fell in love with Quentin." The Humane Society told Romero that Quentin came from a home with a number of pets that had been neglected. Grinstead remembered that when the ferrets arrived at the shelter they were invested with fleas and underweight. When Romero first brought Quentin home he was less active than her other ferret, Baz. "He slept a lot and seemed exhausted," she said. "It would take Quentin awhile to come out of the cage, like he was scared." Quentin is more active and less timid now, Romero said. Today, the fleas and fears are gone, but Quentin deals with a more permanent problem because of his neglect. "He doesn't have good use of his back legs," Romero said. From what she had been told, Quentin's legs suffer from being caged and walking on the wire floors of the cage for too long. Romero said the new law would give people more of a reason to not abuse their animals. Not that people should need a reason, she said. - Edited by Timon Veach Caution A lot of noise to get your attention But we pay the Other stores and buyback locations make best buyback values Plus an May 11 thru 18 only at 10% cash in Hand Extra IBS Jayhawk Bookstore ...at the top of Naismith Hill Kansan Classifieds... 20% discount for students LWRNG's newest skBshop U {longboards} dogtown sector 9 surf one talk to us @ 785.856.WCHO™ whitecho colate™ ten-o-five massachusetts lwrc 66D44 Kansan Classifieds · Find them a job. · Find new roommates. · Sell the couch.

PRISONS 1046 Ex-cons down on their luck BY DAVID TWIDDY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Ed Zurga/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Lamar Brooks has spent the past two weeks looking for a job and explaining to potential employers why he didn't need one for the past five years. Brooks, 30, of Kansas City, was in federal prison on drug charges. He said that's been a tough obstacle as he's looked through newspaper and online classifieds and even had some interviews. "Most people, when they hear you're a felon, they don't give you a chance," he said. Lamar Brooks, right, scans the help wanted ads in the newspaper for a job while friend Harold Hagans looks on Tuesday in Kansas City, Mo. Brooks, released in April after serving five years in a federal prison on drug charges, said most people, when they heard he was a felon, didn't give him a chance. Federal probation officials said employment is a common problem for ex-offenders trying to reinsert themselves into society after prison and can become a reason they return to crime. On Thursday, federal probation officials in Kansas City will hold a career fair, matching an estimated 400 recently released offenders, such as Brooks, with around 20 companies willing to give them a shot. "We felt there was a need for prisoner re-entry in the Kansas City area," said Chi King, who is coordinating the event. "We're just trying to hook them up with employers where they already know from the get-go what they're getting. It removes that one barrier and we're hoping there will be some good matches as a result of this." The felons go through a one-day job readiness class that helps them develop a resume and instructs them on how to deal with the inevitable questions about their past. King said the companies range from typical service industries to white collar jobs, trying to push offenders toward real careers that will stick with them. "Job-seeking is stressful enough," King said. "But when you add on the stigma of a felon and you walk into an interview knowing you're going to have to explain that felony, it's down-right frightening." Last year, the St. Louis program matched 550 former offenders with 42 employers and another 20 organizations providing job training or other community resources. Coordinator Scott Anders estimates the program has a 15 percent placement rate. The event mirrors a job placement program federal probation officials in St. Louis began in 2002 that has become a model for federal and state jurisdictions around the country. In addition, probation officers have developed partnerships with apprenticeship programs and steered job training toward areas of high job growth, such as computer training, hotel management and auto repair. The program now holds annual conferences to teach its lessons to other prison and probation officials, Anders said, adding that only four other federal court districts offer similar job match programs for offenders. tion for the U.S. District Court of Eastern Missouri, said 81 percent of people who violated federal probation or parole last year were unemployed at the time. His district's caseload of 1,800 individuals averages an unemployment rate of just 3 percent. Helping ex-convicts find work hasn't been a priority for federal and state probation offices, which are focused on substance abuse problems, Anders and Burris said. "It's real important that there's a work force culture in law enforcement agencies so employment is a priority," he said. Doug Burris, chief of proba- "I hope to find someone who will take a chance on me," he said. LEGISLATURE Sebelius declares 'victory for Kansans' BY JOHN MILBURN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS TOPEKA — While the school finance debate will never end, Gov. Kathleen Sebelius said Wednesday she was pleased that legislators completed the task of increasing funding for the state's 300 school districts. She declared a "victory for Kansans" a day after legislators sent her a package to increase school funding by $541 million over three years. She said the package satisfied a goal she established in January of passing a multiyear plan addressing concerns identified in a legislative study on education costs that leaders in both parties would support. "I fully intend to sign the The plan, drafted by House and Senate negotiators, assumes $75 million in additional contributions to teacher pensions. It would rely on existing revenues to support the new spending, which could create budget problems by 2008. Senators voted 21-18 late Tuesday to send the plan to governor, hours after the House approved it, 66-54. would prefer they dismiss the lawsuit.

But Johnson County legislators in both chambers didn't like "I hope that meets the test," Sebelius said. "I see this very much as a commitment that we have made." Part of the Supreme Court's mandate is to increase spending on programs that help poor students and students at risk of failing academically. Supporters said the plan meets those concerns. After being signed by Sebelius, the plan would be ready for review by the Kansas Supreme Court, which had ordered lawmakers to increase school funding. Kathleen Sebelius Kansas governor Wichita attorney Alan Rupe, who filed the case in 1999 on behalf of the Salina and Dodge City school districts, already has said the package misses the mark. Ron Keefover, a spokesman for the court, said the court's review would likely be triggered by a motion filed by attorneys expressing favor or disfavor. The court would then schedule when briefs will be filed and a hearing date. "The court is going to act as expeditiously as possible," Keefover said. Added Sebelius, "I would prefer they dismiss the lawsuit. It's never comfortable to operate in the shadow of a court's jurisdiction." NATION the compromise and all voted against it. Their issue was how much authority school districts would have to increase local property taxes to supplement their state aid. While the WESTMINSTER, Texas WESTMINSTER, Texas - Authorities went door to door in a search for victims Wednesday after twisters ripped through rural North Texas overnight, reducing homes to concrete slabs and killing at least three people. The commission is expected to suggest changes in the way the state funds programs for students at risk of failure. Those policies will be the basis for legislative initiatives to close the achievement gap among student groups. Texas officials search for victims of twisters TH At least 26 homes were destroyed. Ten people were hospitalized and dozens of others were treated at the scene for minor injuries. county's schools benefit from various provisions, its legislators viewed taxing authority as vital. State law allows districts to use property taxes to generate revenues equal to 27 percent of their general fund budgets, and the percentages would increase to 30 percent next year and 31 percent for the plan's second and third years. An elderly couple were found dead in a destroyed mobile home in Westminster, Sebelius said she was disappointed that Johnson County's needs weren't met and promised to continue working with the county's lawmakers, as well as working for funding all-day kindergarten statewide. Many Johnson County legislators wanted the cap removed if the court deems state aid to all districts sufficient. Senate President Steve Morris said a commission established last year can review trends and needs in Kansas education, putting the onus on legislators to respond: about 45 miles northeast of Dallas, Collin County Fire Marshal Steve Deffibaugh said. He said a 14-year-old was found dead in a home in neighboring Grayson County. Christy Adame, who lives a half-mile from the home where the elderly couple died, took shelter in a closet with her husband and two sons. "It sounded like a regular thunderstorm, then it went crazy," said Cathy Dotson, who huddled on the floor of her Westminster home with her grandchildren when the tornado hit Tuesday night.

Some were so angered by the sentence given to Daniel Biechele — who could have received 10 years — that they stormed out of the courtroom. One man yelled "Typical (expletive) Rhode Island." "What do you think of your son now?" Patricia Belanger shouted to Biechele's mother, Belanger, who lost her 30-year-old daughter, Dina Ann DeMaio, told reporters afterward: "Now it's her turn to suffer, just like we've been suffering because of her son." Before sentencing, Biechele gazed downward and choked back tears as he apologized for the Feb. 20, 2003, blaze at The Station nightclub in West Warwick. "I don't know that I'll ever forgive myself for what happened that night, so I can't expect anyone else to," he said, his lip quivering. "I never wanted anyone to be hurt in any way. I never imagined that anyone ever would be." Testimony from victims' relatives Monday and Tuesday left lawyers, court officials and at one point the defendant himself in tears. Some described a grief so powerful that they could not get out of bed in the morning, and said they looked forward to nothing except being reunited with their loved ones in death. Superior Court Judge Francis Darigan Jr. gave Biechele, 29, less than half the sentence he could have received under a deal he struck with prosecutors in February, when he pleaded guilty to 100 counts of involuntary manslaughter. Victims' families briefly thought Biechele was getting a 15-year sentence, but the judge suspended 11 years of that term. "We've already suffered almost that long—four years. We've already suffered that long," said Michelle Hoell, whose sister, Tanny Mattera-Housa, died in the fire. DeMaio's sister, Jessica Garvey, called the sentence "infuriating" and "ridiculous." "Four years is nothing," she said outside court. In explaining his sentence, Darigan told Biechele, "The greatest sentence that can be imposed upon you has been imposed upon you by yourself, that is having to live a life, an entire life, knowing that your actions were the proximate cause of the deaths of 100 people." deaths of 100 people Biechele, the first person to be sentenced for the fire, was led out of the courtroom in handcuffs and transported to the state prison in Cranston to begin serving his sentence.

The foam was used as soundproofing and was placed there by the owners after neighbors complained about noise. 1972 Mary Murphy/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Defense attorney Tom Briody, right, comforts his client Dan Biechele as he reacts to his sentencing on 100 counts of involuntary manslaughter Wednesday at Superior Court in Providence, R.I.

Wanted: Northern pikeminnow FISHING BY JEFF BARNARD THE ASSOCIATED PRESS CHINOOK LANDING, Ore. — On his first cast of the season, Jim Walker pitched a lure resembling a baby salmon into the dark green waters of the Columbia River and - BAM! — hooked a 24-inch fish with a $4 bounty on its head. But alas, "we didn't hook another one all day," the 73-year-old retiree said. It may not always be easy, but fishermen who can fill their coolers can also fill their pockets — some getting nearly $40,000 — for helping to control the most voracious predator of baby salmon in the Columbia Basin, the northern pikeminnow. To help make up for the harm done to salmon by the government's hydroelectric dams in Washington, Oregon and Idaho, the Bonneville Power Administration is paying a bounty of $4 to $8 for each northern pike-minnow caught, as long as it is at least nine inches long. There are also more than 1,000 specially tagged bonus fish worth $500 each scattered through the 450 miles of the lower Columbia and Snake rivers to attract more fishermen and help biologists gauge the effect of the bounties. Fishermen have to turn in the pikeminnows to claim the bounty. The fish are then ground up into fertilizer. (An attempt a few years ago to turn them into fish sticks in Chicago proved a failure. Pikeminnows are not good eating; they are bony and the flesh is mushy and has little flavor.) Over the years, federal, state and local governments have offered bounties on such creatures as coyotes, gophers, crows, skunks and swamp rats known as nutrata. But this is believed to be the only federal bounty now being offered for fish. Folks who really work at it, 12 to 18 hours a day and seven days a week, can gross $20,000 during the May-to-October season. Two of the 1,800 people who collected bounties last year got paid close to $40,000 each. "It does take a lot of work, and it does take some knowledge to really catch them consistently," said Tim Caldwell, 46, who was 10th on the money list with $19,084 for 2,425 fish, two of them bonus fish. "I'm after it for the money." Caldwell has been bounty fishing since the program started in 1991, full-time since he sold his gas station and tackle shop three years ago. His best day was 141 fish, but when he got home he was as tired as he has ever been in his life, having gotten up at 2 a.m. and fished until 10 p.m. No more classrooms, no more books Media House Cinema Reserve Michelle Grittmann/Kansai Travis Workman, Lecompton senior, puts books back onto the shelves of the KU Bookstore at the Union for summer classes.

NATION Majority of malpractice suits groundless About 40 percent of the medical malpractice cases filed in the United States are groundless, according to a Harvard analysis of the hotly debated issue that pits trial lawyers against doctors, with lawmakers in the middle. The vast majority of those dubious cases were dismissed with no payout to the patient. Groundless lawsuits still accounted for 15 percent of the money paid out in settlements or verdicts. Many of the lawsuits analyzed contained no evidence that a medical error was committed or that the patient suffered any injury, the researchers reported. The study's lead researcher, David Studdert of the Harvard School of Public Health, said the findings challenge the view among tort reform supporters that the legal system is riddled with frivolous claims that lead to exorbitant payouts. The Associated Press Iraqi president calls for peace TERRORISM BY TAREK EL-TABLAWY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS BAGHDAD, Iraq — President Jalal Talabani urged Iraq's feuding factions Wednesday to unite against surging crime and terrorism, saying Iraqis feel "shock, dismay and anger" at the ongoing slaughter. the bengalog. The government reported 952 people most of them civilians died nationwide last month in "terrorist" violence, including attacks by sectarian death squads that torture and kill their victims before dumping the mutilated bodies in the streets. tated bodies in the streets. "What is asked of the political parties is that they strenuously and clearly condemn these crimes, regardless of who the perpetrators are," Talabani, a former Kurdish guerrilla commander, said in a statement. "Clerics — be they Muslim, Christians, Shite or Sunni — from all factions should also issue edicts rejecting these note." Figures from the ministries of health and interior showed that during April, 686 civilians were killed in politically motivated violence, along with 190 insurgents, 54 policemen and 22 Iraqi soldiers. Iraq Soldier Eighty-two coalition troops — including 76 Americans, three Italians, one Romanian, one Britain and one Australian — died in Iraq during the same period. The ministries' figures for previous months were not available Wednesday night. At least 3,550 Iraqis, including civilians, officials and security forces, have been killed in war-related violence this year, according to an Associated Press tally. That includes at least 615 in January,741 in February,1,038 in March and 801 in April. U. S. officials say the relentless bloodshed adds new urgency to efforts by Iraq's religiously and ethnically based parties to complete formation of a broad-based government.

THURSDAY, MAY 11, 2006 WWW.KANSAN.COM OUR OPINION Calamities abound; Lawrence pereserveres Fires and storms and mumps, oh my! or my. The gods haven't been kind to the University of Kansas this school year. There hasn't been a year so filled with disasters and happenings in recent memory. There was the Boardwalk Apartment Fire in October that claimed three lives, one a KU student. Another house burned down in October. There were three fires in April, on the 10th, 29th and 31st. A microburst came out of nowhere on March 12, blowing down trees and signs, smashed cars, houses and businesses, rendering the student ghetto powerless and creating $6 million worth of damage to campus. They even cancelled class. Then came the mumps. What started as a few KU students coming down with the disease has become a full-blown epidemic. At last count there were 164 confirmed cases at the University. With graduation coming, it could spread even more. then more. There was a double shooting, one of which was fatal, in February at the Granada. Issue: Disasters and crimes plague the city Stance: Is it the end of school for seniors or the end of days for Lawrence? February John Randle got in trouble with the law, again. And the men's basketball team still can't get out of the first round of the NCAA tournament. Try to find a student who wasn't affected. If you didn't get a car smashed you got the mumps. Or you knew someone who lived at the Boardwalk Apartments. But the University's still here. We might be a little battered, sick or shot, but it's going. So we should give ourselves a pat on the back for making it through one tough year. — john Jordan for the editorial board LETTER TO THE EDITOR Images misrepresent I'm a guy. I like guys, too. I recently saw my first episode of "Queer As Folk," which happened to be the pilot episode for the series, and it finally made sense why gays don't have rights. It is apparent in how the mainstream media, and the public in general, depict homosexuals. It's rare to see a gay character in a network television series or major film that is better known for his intelligence and personality rather than his frivolous nature and bedroom tendencies. Sure, these characters are well-liked, fun-loving and extremely good-looking, but that's just it — a pretty face with the personality of a pomeranian. Two groups of people watch these productions and form ideas and opinions that affect the current standing, and future, of the gay community — gay youth and heterosexual voters. Although not conclusive, studies have shown that homosexuality is linked to eating disorders and negative body image. Diseases thought to be strictly female are now found in males. A 2000 study in the International Journal of Eating Disorders by Harvard undergraduate Christopher Russell and psychology professor Pamela Keel found that men make up 10 to 15 percent of people with eating disorders, and 10 to 42 percent of those men identify themselves as bi- or homosexual. In a world where appearance means everything, it is understandable why some gays resort to a potentially fatal process in order to drastically change their bodies. The extremely popular event known as Pride is a surefire way to get religiously conservative voters to sashay onto the bandwagon of gay rights. Images of explicit sexual activity and cross-dressing divas parading in cities throughout America illustrate the moralistic and family-values platform gay activists endorse. In 2003, Bill O'Reilly displayed graphic images of gay sex during "Gay Days" on his show. How does the majority of the public, perfectly content with where society is, react to these images? Homosexuals should be entitled to a good time, but when it obstructs the perception of the community, a communal inspection must be done and decisions must be made in the name of progress. Chris Horn Lenexa sophomore WE'RE UNCOMFORTABLE WITH THE IDEA OF A GENERAL TELLING A CIVILIAN AGENCY WHAT TO DO... WOULD IT HELP IF I WROTE AN OP-ED CALLING FOR RUMSFIELD TO RESIGN? SENATE HAYDEN Gas price hike deserves careful consideration COMMENTARY Sometimes, it becomes all-too clear that there are some laws only a politician could think up. With the present energy crisis — and I use that term lightly — there seems to be an overwhelming upsurge in proposals of that ilk. Take for instance Sen. Bill Frist's recent bid to issue $100 checks as reimbursement for high gas prices. Since its proposal, the idea has already been abandoned — or at least put on the shelf for the time being. It is still worth consideration because it gives us an insight into just what exactly is running through Congress' brain — or lack thereof. PETER KAUFMAN ANDREW SOUKUP opinion@kansan.com hack them. Besides reeking of socialist ideologies and completely disregarding the Constitution, it is utterly devoid of any kind of rudimentary economic sense. One has to wonder if any politician actually sat down and did some rough estimates of the impact of this kind of action. If $100 were given to all 500 million Americans, it would cost about $30,000,000,000. Yes, that's right; there are 11 zeros in that number. Of course, the federal government could just as easily repeal the 18.4 cents per gallon it current taxes gasoline consumers. If I use 520 gallons per year — 10 gal/week times 52 weeks — that would save me roughly $95. Plus, it would only cost half the price The plan would have actually taxed gas companies to pay that $30 billion. Talk about robbing Peter to pay Paul. Now, I know this is a lot of math, but bear with me a second. $15.4 billion divided by 18.4 cents equals roughly 84 billion gallons of fuel sold in the U.S. in 2004. Divide $30 billion by that figure, and the gas companies would have to increase the price by almost 36 cents to recoup the difference. The point is that the gas companies are not going to donate that money out of the goodness of their hearts. Rather, it will come directly out of our pockets. — $15.4 billion according to 2004 numbers — of that other inane idea. Of course, I really would have hoped that no KU student have hoped that no ICE student especially those who did not vote $100 Fee Cut — would ever get to take advantage of this action if it came to pass. Call me crazy, but I would rather spend $100 on something I actually use, like gas, instead of things I do not use, like Watkins Health Center, the rec center, child care, LGBT services, etc. Now, some lawmakers such as Chuck Schumer suggest targeting the gas companies themselves. Citing increased profits in recent years, they suggest that the increased price of gasoline is in some way a complete fabrication aimed only at lining the pockets of slick CEOs. Fortunately, And, yet, no one ever suggests paying professors or the chancellor less in order to lower our tuition. Nor do legislators vote to decrease their pay in order to lower our taxes. There is no quick-fix solution to increasing prices at the pump. And, policies based on bad economic principles will not help either. Perhaps, instead of trying to hijack an entire industry, the government — including Student Senate — should focus on ways of saving us money that are actually somewhat feasible and within their inherent authority to do so.

And that is just in Kansas. Domestic violence is a massive, urgent and heartbreaking problem. COMMENTARY Take a stand on domestic abuse A LIZ STUEWE opinion@hansan.com Relationships are tricky. Every day we navigate the often volatile waters of friendships, romantic relationships and family affairs. But learning to protect yourself and others in relationships may be the greatest political act of your life. For decades feminists have used the phrase "the personal is political," often attributed to Carol Hanisch, as a rallying cry for many different social movements. But what does it mean? And what can it offer those of us looking to help end the violence? "The personal is political" means that society and the government have an influence in everything you do. They even have power in your romantic relationships. For example, our society has designated the police as the proper authority to deal with domestic violence, and in many cases the police are the only protection available to women. Therefore, the political actions that shape the police and their policies are of utmost importance to those concerned about women in domestic violence situations. "The personal is political." What does this mean for women in college? It means we need to stick together; we need to be politically active in order to protect ourselves and our sisters. According to the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence, 85 percent of all domestic violence victims are women. women. The first step toward political action is, fittingly, personal. Tell everyone you know that it is never acceptable for loved ones to use violence. Never. Ever. Support your friends dealing with abusive relationships. Offer them safety. Call the police when you hear your neighbors having a violent argument. Then use the public systems available to your best advantage. Lobby the police for fair treatment, educate yourself about the legal system, call your local congresswoman or man and tell them that protecting women should be a priority. Volunteer. Call the Women's Transitional Care Services of Lawrence at 785-843-3333 and tell them that you want to support women trying to escape violent situations and women who are rebuilding their lives after abuse.

Stallworth oversees the budgets for improvements and repairs across campus. BY MIKE MOSTAFFA mmostaffa@kansan.com ■ KANSAN STAFF WRITER From jazz to basketball to school to charity Kansas legend Bud Stallworth's done it all It has been 35 years since Bud Stallworth sent Allen Fieldhouse fans into a frenzy by scoring 50 points against Missouri in arguably the greatest individual performance in Kansas basketball history. Yet even today, Stallworth still gets a cheer from the crowd. But the applause he receives these days is for his charity work rather than his athletic accomplishments. For Stallworth, chairman of Tuesday's Rock Man Celebrity Golf Classic, knowing the money raised from the event will help children with special needs is more satisfying than any standing ovation. "I've had many blessings in my life," he said. "And now I'm in a position where I can make a difference." Stallworth, whose number 15 jersey hangs from the rafters of Allen Fieldhouse, is driven to lend a helping hand to others because he knows what a difference it can make. His journey to KU basketball immortality did not begin on the basketball court, but rather in the makeshift band room of his segregated Alabama public school. The talented trumpet player received scholarship money allowing him to attend a music camp in Lawrence, where he would ultimately fulfill his hardwood destiny. After helping the 1971 basketball team achieve unparalleled success, the Alabama gunslinger shot through the Kansas record books in 1972, scoring more points in conference play than any other player in KU history and coming within two points of tying Wilt Chamberlain's school record for points scored in a game. Contributed photo Stallworth, who at 6-foot-5 had the ball-handling ability of a point guard, was drafted in the first round in both ABA and NBA drafts, but a car accident in 1972 cut his promising career short.

Prince Price Wednesday's match-up was the last opportunity Kansas had to pick up a quality victory on the road. A victory against Missouri State would have helped make up for last weekend's sweep by No. 4 Texas — losses that make Kansas' chances of getting a bid into the NCAA tournament less certain.

Big 12 Tournament. "I'm going to give, hopefully, my best motivational speech of the year about how important the next two weeks are," Price said before Tuesday's practice. Kansas has fallen to the No. 7 spot in the Big 12 standings. It barely made the Big 12 Tournament, which only takes the top eight teams. Kansas must now rely on its strength of schedule, a measure based on the difficulty of teams played, which is reflected in the Ratings Percentage Index.

SEE TOURNAMENT ON PAGE 2B SOFTBALL Pitcher named player of year 6 BY RYAN SCHNEIDER rschneider@kansan.com KANSAN SNORER SWITWRIER Settlemier Add another award to the long Audiotherlist of honors compiled this season by Serena Settlemier in her record-breaking senior campaign. PENN STATE UNIVERSITY The league's coaches named Settlemier the Big 12 Player of the Year Wednesday afternoon in a ceremony in Oklahoma City. It marked the first time in program history that a Jayhawk received the honor. She was also named to the All-Big 12 First Team for the first time in her career. "This is a huge accomplishment," Settlemier said following the ceremony. "I think it's a turning point in my career. It shows I've overcome a lot of adversity." Settlemier was drafted earlier in the year by the National Pro-Fast-pitch League's Texas Thunder, a Houston-based softball team. The Kelso, Wash., native has set numerous single-season and program records in her final season. Her 21 home runs, 59 RBI and 123 total bases are a Kansas single-season record. Settlemier's six grand slams this season are believed by the Kansas Athletics Department to lead the nation, although no official stats for grand slams are kept. She also leads all Kansas batters with her .331 batting average, including a .295 average in Big 12 play. For her career, she leads the school with 43 home runs and 115 RBI. Settlemier has been named the Big 12 Player of the Week twice and USA Softball Co-National Player of the Week once during the season. "I think it'll give people higher expectations to reach," Settlemier said. Settlemier has also been one of the Big 12's most consistent pitchers. She boasts a 1.21 ERA, including a 0.83 ERA in conference play and has a 16-6 record on the season, the best mark of her career. Clutch hits in key situations have been the hallmark of Settlemier's senior season. In the past month, she has hit two of her career's most memorable home runs. She hit her fifth grand slam of the season. The hit vaulted Kansas over Missouri in the fifth inning of a game at Arrocha Ballpark. Weeks later she smacked a pitch over the left field fence against Wichita State. The hit was Kansas' first of the game and lifted the team to a 2-1, come-from-behind victory. Settlemier said she thought the award would bring more attention to the Kansas softball program. Postseason Award Notes: Junior pitcher Kassie Humphreys was also named to the All-Big 12 First Team. Despite her 14-16 record, she has been among the conference's top pitchers this season. She has a 1.31 ERA, and holds her opponents to a 155 batting average while striking out nearly eight batters per game. 1 Edited by Timon Veach . 2B THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN --- SPORTS THURSDAY, MAY 11, 2006 CALENDAR TODAY Softball vs. Baylor in the Big 12 Tournament, 11 a.m., Oklahoma City Softball at Big 12 Tournament, time TRA, Oklahoma City FRIDAY - Women's golf at NCAA Regionals, time TBA, location TBA Baseball vs. Bradley in Jayhawk Campaign 7, Iowa, Hardy and Ralston Women's golf at NCAA Regionals all day, location TBA Classic, 7 p.m., Hoglund Ballpark Softball at Big 12 Tournament, time TBA.

Kansas hopes tourney bubble doesn't burst The Associated Press SOFTBALL BY RYAN SCHNEIDER rschneider@kansan.com KANSAN SENIOR SPORTSWITHER Kansas may very well be on the bubble for postseason play entering the Big 12 Tournament. Just don't tell Tracy Bunge. "I think that we're in a pretty good place right now," the Kansas coach said. "I think we can obviously help ourselves and make it harder for the committee to not put us in, but I don't think that we're in a must-win situation." Kansas hopes to work its way off the bubble at the tournament in Oklahoma City, starting with today's game against Baylor. First pitch against the Bears is scheduled for 11 a.m. No matter the outcome of the Baylor game, Kansas will play two games today. If the team wins, it will play at 7:30 p.m. With a loss, Kansas will play in an elimination game at 2 p.m. Despite Bunge's declaration that the tournament will not make or break the season, Kansas players realize the pressure is on, especially against No. 18 Baylor. "I don't think they're excited to play us," senior pitcher Serena Settlemier said. "We hit pretty well off their pitching and we're going to see the same pitcher." Having faced every possible opponent in the tournament, the Jayhawks expect few surprises. For Settlemier and junior pitcher Kassie Humphreys, the disadvantage is that nearly every hitter has already seen their pitches. "They've now seen you one or two times," Humphreys said. "I think that could work as an advantage or disadvantage." As was the case in the earlier meeting with Baylor, Bunge said pitching was the key to keeping Kansas in close games. "Kassie and Serena have been doing such a good job throughout the conference schedule," Bunge said. "We feel very good about what we're doing on the mound and know that if we can scratch out a few runs here and there that we can be in any ballgame with anybody in the league." Kansas split the regular season series with Baylor in Waco, Texas. Each team won a game by the score of 2-1. The Jayhawks won the first game, thanks to Settlemier's home run in the 11th inning. Humphreys recorded the victory, struck out 13 batters and allowed two hits in 11 innings of work. felt like I had good control over my pitches and I stayed ahead of every batter." "I felt it was one of the best games I've pitched in conference," Humphreys said. "I really Baylor won the second game, knocking out Settlemier in four innings. The Jayhawks recorded only two hits in the game, one by Settlemier and one by senior right fielder Heather Stanley. Offensively, the Jayhawks are as hot as they've been all season. Senior short stop Destiny Frankenstein, freshman center fielder Stevie Crisosto and freshman third baseman Val Chapple each bring a team-high two game hit streak into the tournament. Tournament CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B Edited by Timon Veach Kansas will face Bradley and Northern Colorado this weekend in the Jayhawk Classic. The two teams hold a 198 and a 245 RPI ranking, respectively. Rankings like those are not particularly helpful in boosting a team's strength of schedule, an aspect helpful to making the tournament. A teams is chosen for the tournament based on its win-loss record and strength of schedule. Sometimes, a team with fewer victories stronger schedule might have a better chance of making it to the tournament than one with more victories and a weaker schedule. "I haven't really looked at that," senior closer Don Czyz said. "But it seems like in order to get in, from what we've done in years past, like last year we had 38 wins and didn't make the tournament. It seems like we're going to need more than 38, and if we're sitting here at 33, I would say it's probably going to take us winning out and maybe getting a couple of games in the Big 12 tournament." Kansas can win a maximum of 39 games before heading to Oklahoma City for the Big 12 Championship, which would produce a 13-14 conference record. Last season, the Jayhawks collected 38 victories and an 11-15 conference record, and failed to get a tournament bid. "I think that we'll get in," Price said. "Based on how good of a schedule we've played and some of the quality wins that we have — especially the quality of wins we have on the road." Kansas won a series at Stanford in February, and one game against No. 2 Clemson on March 11. However, Kansas lost the other two games against Clemson, which holds a No. 2 RPI ranking. "No matter how hard we've worked, we've always came up a little short," said Czyz, who pulled a lot of weight in the Jayhawks' stretch of 17 consecutive games versus ranked opponents earlier this season. "I'm hoping that this year the hard work and tough schedule will pay off." The Big 12 sits behind the ACC and SEC as the No. 3 toughest conference by RPI standards. Although Kansas sits at the No. 7 spot in the conference, four games below .500 in Big 12 action, conference teams are helping out. Texas, Nebraska and Oklahoma each rank in the Top 11 in both the Collegiate Baseball poll and the RPI standings. All three will likely earn national seeds heading into the NCAA tournament. Only 16 national seeds are awarded. If the Big 12 gets three of them, which has never happened in the conference's 10 years of existence, it is likely the NCAA will take six teams from the Big 12. If the Jayhawks can win out, they're in line as team number six. "We've always been the underdogs," Czyz said. "And from here on out I guess you could say we're the underdog in making the Big 12 tournament and a regional appearance. I think we'll do it."

Kansas still has six games left in the regular season.

McCulloch's 71 strikeouts are third best in the Big 12. Big 12 Newcomer of the Year; Luke Gorsett - Nebraska junior outfielder Gorsett transferred to Ne- Gibson train braska from Garden City Community College, and the Cornhuskers would be nowhere near the top of the Big 12 standings without him. His .38 Gorsett average, 41 runs, 67 hits, 15 home runs, 126 total bases, .720 slugging percentage and .456 on-base percentage lead the 'Huskers.

Big 12 coaches predicted Oklahoma to finish fifth again in 2006, but with two weekends of Big 12 play left, first place is within reach for Galloway's squad. OU Golloway 35:26 Kansas Player of the Year: John Allman - sophomore outfielder Kansas is three victories away Kansas is three from its most successful season of Big 12 play and one reason is Allman's domination against Big 12 pitching.

Edited by Cynthia Hernandez MLB Royals 4 Charlin Riedel/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Cleveland Indians catcher Victor Martinez watches as Kansas City Royals' Angel Berroa celebrates while crossing the plate after hitting a home run during the eighth inning of their baseball game on Wednesday in Kansas City, Mo. Kansas City won the game 10-8. Eight-inning upset hits K.C. BY DOUG TUCKER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Aaron Guiel and Angel Berroa hit solo home runs in the eighth inning and the Kansas City Royals beat the Cleveland Indians 10-8 Wednesday for a three-game sweep. Every Royals starter had at least one RBI. Guiel connected for his second homer in two games, hitting a tiebreaking shot after the Indians scored three times in the eighth to tie it at 8. Ambiorix Burgos (1-0) balked home the tying run in the eighth but got the victory. Guillermo Mota (0-2) gave up the home runs that gave Kansas City its first three-game home sweep of the Indians in four years. Kerry Robinson greeted Mota with a two-run triple in a three-run sixth. The Indians then tied it in the eighth, with Ramon Vazquez scoring the tying run on Burgos' balk. Royals starter Scott Elarton gave up three runs in the first on Jason Michaels' RBI double and Jonny Peralta's two-run homer. Elarton did not allow a hit after the first inning until Casey Blake homered with two out in the sixth. Paul Bako's tiebreaking RBI single in the sixth chased Westbrook and brought in Mota. Westbrook, who entered the game with a 4-2 record and 1.65 career ERA against Kansas City, gave up eight runs and nine hits in 5-2-3 innings. Matt Stairs hit an RB1 double in the fourth and took third when Indians second baseman Ronnie Belliard made a wild throw to the plate. Stairs tied it at 3 on Emil Brown's grounder. Esteban German's RBI grounder and Doug Mientkiewicz's run-scoring single gave the Royals a 5-3 lead in the fifth. After Blake's homer made it 5-4. Ben Broussard singled and eventually scored on a single by Vazquez that tied it at 5. Royals Notes: Royals CF Shane Costa, on the DL since April 29 with a left hamstring strain, is headed for Arizona for a few days of rehab and expected to rejoin the team at the beginning of next week at the beginning of race. Third baseman Graffanino made a nice play in the sixth, running into foul ground to catch Travis Hafner's pop foul in the strong wind.

Stallworth, one of only three Kansas players to earn All-America honors for academics and athletics, returned to the University in 1987 and currently oversees budgets for multimillion dollar projects for Design and Construction Management. Over the last decade-and-a-half, the proud parent of five has found a new calling — charity. I thought I was going to be the next Louis Armstrong" Stallworth grew up in Hartselle, Ala., just a jump shot away from the Arkansas border. He attended Morgan County Training Center, an all-black school for grades one through twelve. The school allowed children of cotton farmers to leave school and return once cotton picking season was over. Stallworth, who began playing with the varsity team in seventh grade, said he often competed against older students who were in their 20s. But in the Stullworth household, education and the arts held precedent over athletics. His parents agreed to let him play basketball as long as he kept an 'A' average and learned to play the trumpet. Stallworth would become a firstchair performer in jazz, concert and marching band, and wowed audiences at local talent shows. "I thought I was going to be the next Louis Armstrong," Stallworth said. At the age of 16, his musical talent earned him a scholarship to attend the University of Kansas Midwestern Music & Art Camp, led by Tonight Show band leader Doc Severinsen. His parents encouraged the aspiring musician to attend the camp to hone his gifted musical skills. Little did they know band camp would provide an open lane to a slam-dunk basketball career.

John Douglas Feb., 16, 1977 Iowa State 46 points Wilt Chamberlain Feb., 8, 1958 Nebraska 46 points 4. Wilt Chamberlain Dec., 30, 1958 Colorado 45 points Source: Kansas Athletics Coach, "you've got to see this guy" During lunch breaks at band camp, Stallworth would put down his trumpet and put on his Converse Chuck Taylor's to play basketball at nearby Robinson Gymnasium, where players from the 1966 team were playing pick-up games. Sixteen-years-old, 6-foot-5 and skinny as a pole, Stallworth held his own against the likes of Jo-Jo White, Rich Bradshaw and Vernon Vanoy. White said that after witnessing Stallworth's drive to compete, he knew that the young basketball player "had a chance to become something special." He was so impressed with the young Stallworth he went straight into coach Ted Owens' office and emphatically told his coach, "You've got to see this guy." Stallworth said he chose Kansas over local schools Alabama and Auburn, that were recruiting him to break the color barrier, because of its basketball tradition. The cardiac kids Because student athletes were not allowed to participate in varsity athletics as freshman, Stallworth did not see varsity action until 1970. He wasted no time asserting himself as a dominant player by scoring 27 points in the season opener against Marshall. Coach Owens said that Stallworth was an amazing athlete who could "jump out of the gym." Owens said his combination of size and quickness made Stallworth the "prototype of today's NBA guard." Stallworth would play a key role on the 1971 team, the only team in Kansas history to go unbeaten in conference play and win its conference tournament Stallworth said his team earned the nickname "the cardiac kids" after a bomb scare in its home opener against Long Beach State. The nickname stuck after the team won 6 games, its last four regular season games and first two NCAA tournament games, by a combined total of only 13 points. The Jayhawks advanced to the Final Four in Houston, setting up showdown with the UCLA Bruins. Bud's bunch found themselves down by 13 with less than five minutes to go against the talented Bruins. The team began to use a full-court, man-to-man press and the cardiac kids began their charge to resuscitate their national championship dreams. Center Dave Robisch put Kansas ahead by two late in the game, but a controversial traveling call negated the basket. UCLA went on to win the game and its fifth consecutive NCAA championship. Stallworth said he would never forget what UCLA coach John Wooden told him. After the game Wooden walked up to Stallworth, who was receiving treatment for an injury, and remarked, "It's a nice day, isn't it Bud." When Bud replied that it was, Wooden scoffed, "But it could have been nicer." Shooting past the records Fueled by Coach Wooden's comments, Stallworth was poised to return to the Final Four his senior year in 1972. Stallworth averaged 25.3 points per game his senior year, the most ever by a KU player who did not play the center position. Stallworth went on to lead the Big 8 Conference in scoring, averaging 27.9 points per game in conference play. He still holds the record for most points scored in conference play in a season with 381. Bob Frederick, the team's assistant coach and future Athletics Director, remembers Stallworth as a "picture perfect" jump shooter who had the ability to pull up from anywhere on the court. The 1972 team was plagued with injuries and ended the year with a disappointing record, but its last home game was a showdown with archrival Missouri. SEE STALLWORTH ON PAGE 5P MISS.

The day of the game Stallworth had read in a local newspaper that Stewart believed his star player, John Brown, should win conference player of the year honors, despite the fact Stallworth led the league in scoring. "I took that personally." Stallworth said. "At that time my ego said I'm the best player in this conference, bar none." Motivated by Stewart's comments, Stallworth lit up the Tigers for 50 points in one of the greatest individual performances in Kansas basketball history. When the final buzzer sounded, students celebrated by mobbing Stallworth at halfcourt. KANSAS 15 Frederick said had the three-point line been in existence, Stallworth would have had well over 60 points. A career cut short In 1972 Stallworth was drafted as the seventh pick of the first round by the Seattle Supersonics and would later play for the New Orleans Jazz. Stallworth competed against 27 of the league's 50 greatest players. Stallworth, who was Pistol Pete's teammate in New Orleans, that he often matched up with legends like George "Iceman" Gervin, Walt Frazier and "Doctor" Julius Erving. Stallworth's career would be tragically cut short in 1977, when a cab he shared with some teammates ran a red light and broadsided another vehicle. The accident left Stallworth with a herniated disc in his lower back. Stallworth would go to several doctors but because of the nature of the injury he was forced to retire. Contributed photo Classroom initiative. Father knows best After a stint as a restaurant owner in Hawaii, Stallworth returned to Lawrence in 1987 to work at KU Design and Construction Management. He oversees the budget for construction projects and was in charge of 1996's $40 million Crumbling In his Carruth O'Leary office, you will find a wall of note books filled with construction documents, a radio playing songs from Magic 107.3 and picture after picture of his wife and five sons in their 20s: Jonathan, Ijon, Isaac III, Christian and Jehren. Stallworth, whose proudest achievement is being one of only three Kansas players to earn All-America honors on the court and in the classroom, made sure his children put as much emphasis on their school work as they did in their athletic and social endeavors. Bud Stallworth goes up for a jumper in front of a packed house. Stallworth led the Big 8 Conference in scoring his senior year, averaging 27.9 points per game in 1972 in conference play. The shorthoot's ability to get his shot off quickly made him a threat from anywhere on the court. Son Jonathan said his father made sure academics was his first priority. Playing Through Pain When Stallworth isn't busy looking over budgets or spending time with his family, you can find him on the golf course or riding horses at his farmland property on the outskirts of Jefferson County. Because surgery would leave him unable to participate in these activities, Stallworth chose to forge it, against doctors' wishes. For over 50 years Stallworth has gone through a regimen of daily therapy. Some days he is forced to wear a back brace, and on the "bad days," he takes prescribed anti-inflammatory pills. "It's like playing Russian Roulette," he said. "In another 20 years, who knows the consequences, but I might not be around, so right now I'm going to live." His Passion Over the last 15 years Stallworth has been involved with charity organizations. By bringing in friends like NBA legends Jo-Jo White and George Gervin to the "Slice of Life" charity benefit, Stallworth has helped raise nearly $400,000 for the Kansas Area Medical Foundation. This May he served as chair of the 2006 Rock Man Celebrity Classic, a benefit for the Sunshine Center of Independence, Mo., which helps children with special needs. When Stallworth talks about his charity work he gets the same twinkle in his eye as when he talks about his days as a basketball star. Being intricately involved with local charities has become his "passion," he said. Stallworth's charity work and the man he has become. said although Stallworth would always be remembered as a KU basketball legend and owned records that may never be broken, he was more proud of Former coach Ted Owens Owens said. "Let me wait 15 years and I'll tell you."

The recent saga with new KU basketball signe Darrall Arthur is a prime example. Jim Marchiony, associate athletics director, said sports chat rooms and message boards served a valid purpose. "I think it's great for fans to get engaged and talk to each other." Marchiony said. "I like message boards when what I read is accurate." Marchiony said there were plenty of times when what he read on message boards and heard on sports talk shows was inaccurate. Marchiony said he was usu- t's more than just a nuisance. It can harm the reputations of people unjustly." Jim Marchiony Associate athletics director Mason Logan is the sports information director for the football team. Part of his job is to handle all media questions regarding the football team. He said he got calls five or six times a week from people trying to see if the latest rumor was myth or fact. ally the department's contact for media inquiries. He said he often got calls from reporters following up on a rumor they saw or heard on message boards and talk shows. I'll look into almost anything, no matter how ridiculous it is." Logan said. He said a problem with these types of communication mediums was that people who posted comments were anonymous. Marchiony said he had a bigger problem with sports talk radio than he had with chat rooms or message boards, because journalists discussed rumors as truths. Any normal Joe could say whatever they wanted, then have reporters grab onto that and follow up on it. Marchiony said these types of outlets had become a nuisance because people ran with those rumors as if they were fact. "News outlets feel like they should follow up on leads from there," Marchiony said. "It's dangerous. It's more than just a nuisance. It can harm the reputations of people unjustly." —Edited by Meghan Miller What a day for croquet 1980 Nicoletta Niosi/KANSAN Andy Spalding, St. Louis freshman, celebrates after Andrew Stanley, Overland Park freshman, takes a swing during a game of croquet in front of Strong Hall Wednesday.

All the hard work that you've put in during your undergraduate experience has paid off. But how are you going to keep your head above water? Graduate school is more intense than undergraduate school at the University, which means stepping up your academic game. Taming stress will help you conquer grad school. These tips are not only helpful for grad school students but undergrads as well. It is more important to follow these steps in grad school, however, because it requires more effort from its students. Good tips before grad school 1. Start studying now. Procrastination is so easy to do but you must resist the urge. Start that reading assignment or paper as soon as your professor assigns it. That way you'll know how much work is ahead for that project that you thought was going to take 10 hours, but actually took 40. 2. Don't cram. This goes right along with procrastination — don't do it. You will benefit greatly if you don't wait until the last minute to study for that exam that is worth 50 percent of your grade. 3. Prioritize. Creating lists of your assignments and due dates will help prevent procrastination and cramming. 4. Sleep. Eight hours of sleep per night is the number that many people agree is an adequate amount of sleep for a healthy adult, like college students. Sleep is like food or water. It is a survival tool, especially when our brains need to be alert for studying and analyzing what we've learned. According to the National Institutes of Health, if we aren't getting enough sleep, we can see a decline in our performance, concentration and consolidation of information learning. The Institute also said that our lack of sleep could contribute to elevated occurrences of memory lapses, accidents and injuries, and mood problems. Being in grad school means you need to be on top of your game, and an ample amount of sleep will help you get there. Source: Tara Kuther, About.com 5. Exercise. Running or doing other physical activity will help you alleviate stress in a way that's good for you, plus you can burn some extra unwanted calories, too. Sometimes stress can get the best of you, but burning that extra energy will make you feel better and allow you to focus on doing the last bit of studying before a test or getting that good night of sleep. The stadium is filled with a large crowd of spectators, many of whom are dressed in formal attire. The field is vast and covered with trees, creating a natural backdrop for the event. In the distance, a tall tower rises against the sky, its height slightly obscured by foliage. Graduating students will participate in the long-honored tradition of walking down the hill Sunday, May 21 2006. PHOTO courtesy of University Relations BACK HOME Living at home not so bad BY ASHLEY PATE editor@kansan.com KANSAN CORRESPONDENT When I graduate next May, I am going to be inundated with student loans because I chose to come here from out-of-state. Because I will have all this debt straight out of college, I plan to move back home into my parent's house to save some money. I am not alone. More students are realizing that the benefits outweigh the negative aspects of living at home with your parents. Andrew Bruns, Overland Park senior, has decided that after he graduates this year, he will be moving back in with his mom. "It's to save money and pay off student loans," said Bruns. So you're thinking it might be a good idea eh? Let's go through some steps to make sure that it's right for you. 2. Make sure that all the ground rules are laid out. Many parents will be more lenient with rules, just because you aren't a kid anymore. Bruns plans on making little adjustments from his current lifestyle, like being more courteous of his mom. Discuss curfew, inviting friends over, and doing your part around the house. 1. Use common sense. Talk to your parents first about moving back, it is their abode after all. You may have lived with them for 18 years, but they may have turned your high school bedroom into the exercise room. 3. Decide how you are going to pay your parents to live with them. You are an adult now, and just like you pay rent in your apartment you should pay rent to your parents, whether it's in money form or not. Offer to help out with chores or other activities around the house if you can't help out financially. Bruns has no set payment with his mom but plans to help her out whenever he can. "My mom has done everything in her power to help me out and I'd do the same for her," said Bruns. 4. Be proud that your parents are cool enough to let you live with them and be confident when people give you a hard time about it. "There's a social stigma attached to a person who's out of college and living with their parents," said Bruns. This is especially true when you want to bring a potential significant other back to your place. Think Will Ferrell in the Wedding Crashers. If you can stand to live with your parents and follow these steps, it should be smooth sailing to cheap living and paying off those student loans. To walk or not to walk; that is the question Somewhere around mid-April students begin to prepare for graduation. Double-checking their credit hours, getting fitted for a cap and gown and deciding whether or not they will walk. You know, that infamous winding trot through the Campanile, along Potter's Lake, through the grove and onto the big screen where mom and dad are anxiously waiting to see your shining face. The walk's destination is of course Commencement, the annual tribute to all the undergraduate, graduate and PhD students; sometimes under the sun, sometimes in the rain and from what I hear sometimes lengthy. Either way, choosing whether to walk or not carries a lot of weight in ones graduation and today a number of factors affect deciding graduates. Factor 1: Tradition Tradition might as well be KU's middle name. The University opened its doors in 1866, traditions, growing evermore, become a part of a students experience. Graduation presents one of the strongest traditions of all, walking through the Campanile and down the hill. You've heard since freshman year, the risky business of possibly strolling through its feet before your time, thus cursing your ability to graduate. I personally have only circled them monstrous World War II monument due to my superintention and out-of-state tuition. Many say there is something sacred about marking your graduation by walking through the north star of campus; which has stood tall since 1951 when it was dedicated to the 277 faculty and students killed in the war. PETER TOWNSEND BY KATEY IBSEN editor@kansan.com Chiming the Alma Mater every quarter hour, everyday you've ever had a class, almost makes one feel as if they owe it to the prominent structure. Factor 2; May or December The dynamics of graduation today have become a little loosy gooys, if you will. Official May graduates often intend to walk as it completes the pump and circumstance. While December graduates, from what I've been told, feel like the stepchild, posing as a graduate in May. Regardless, neither student will Factor 3: Your Status receive their diploma at Commencement, but instead a sunburn and pictures for the photo album. Factor 4: Fake it Commencement joins together just about everyone at KU. Undergraduates who are fuzzy on the future, graduate and PhD students with a plan and everyone in between. Does one honor make walking more important than another? It's possible that any and all graduates could be passive aggressive, it often comes down to how much time you might have spent at the library or the amount of memories you want to savor during the Chancellor's universal speech. just remember to take a right, not a left. Many students try to get the best of both worlds as they walk down the hill and bolt before the stadium. Having never actually attended a KU Commencement, I can only imagine this looks dysfunctional. But as legend has it, the hole-in-the wall bars sit atop the hill where grads arrive in their gowns and watch the ceremony from afar with a cold one. In the end, the decision is yours no matter what kind of graduate you may be. We will assume you will attend the ceremony appropriate for your degree and leave Commencement to the discretion of family and friends possibly coming to congratulate you. Best of luck and if you choose to walk - don't trip. Ibsen is a senior in journalism / 2C THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN COMMENCEMENT GRADUATION THURSDAY, MAY 11, 2006 Hawks graduate with history Commencment steeped in long-standing tradition BY BETTY KASPAR editor@kansan.com KANSAN CORRESPONDENT After four hard years, making the walk down the hill is one of the most cherished traditions at the University of Kansas. It also marks the first time an undergraduate should walk through the Campanile. Of many superstitions and urban myths on campus, the belief is that if you walk through the Campanile before graduation day, you will not graduate. Even if you are not one to believe in superstition, the history of how we have reached the graduation procession we see today has been a long road. Bucharest, Romania. A large crowd gathers at the stadium for the final of a football match between FC Bucureşti and FC Dinamo Bucureşti. The field is marked with white lines, and there are several groups of people walking along it. In the background, there are buildings and a tower, possibly part of a university campus. Graduates and their friends and family, enjoy this 1991 commencement. Photo courtesy of Spencer Research Library APEAK AT THE PAST The University of Kansas commencement ceremony on May 21 will continue traditions that have been carried on by thousands of students, faculty and staff. First commencement: June 11, 1673, with four graduates, which included one woman, who was the valedictorian, and three men. Ceremonies that lasted several days: baccalaureate sermon, class day, commencement procession into the chapel of University Hall (cld Fraser), commencement oration, banquet and conferring of degrees. The University confers 199 degrees at the 1893 com- momentum, it was the first time above our comfort be more than 100 degrees. Students first wear cwps and gowns; about 1897. Commencement in a tent 1923. Because no campus building could accommodate all the guests, the University held commencement in a tent that seated 3,400. First march down the Hill: 1924. Graduates marched into Memorial Stadium, where commencement ceremonies occurred. Commencement program out to two days 1943. The Graduate Magazine reported that "the ruining of trees and gas and the conditions of travel on train and bus were not conducive to travel, but surprising numbers attended the various events." Memorial Campanile dedicated; 1951. In 1950, the Graduate Magazine reported that "the graduating class marched through the base of the campanile by dint of some removal of scaffolding and other debris around the tower. As the cus- tran for graduating classes to pass through the base of the memorial bolt tower carries on through the years, the class of "50 doubtless will take pride that it was the first to observe the rite."

Crowell didn't want to have the typical keg party so she and "About 25 people confirmed and about 35 say they are maybe attending so it hard to judge how many to plan for," she said. She also sent out invitations to family and isn't sure how many will actually come. Bixler and roommate Beth Chronister, Topeka senior wanted a laid-back outdoor event. They live at Ecumenical Christian Ministries, so family and friends can stroll over to their spacious living quarters for a barbecue and Free State keg after the commencement. menit.

But you should be concerned about your financial future. The first and most imminent issue that needs to be addressed is paying off your student loans. Before you consider consolidating your loans though, make a plan. This plan should include a monthly budget of what you're spending and a budget of the loans and other debts that need to be paid off. Once that plan is made, the next thing you should be concerned with is a general financial plan. It's easy to live paycheck to paycheck and not invest any money but it's smarter to look to the future and plan for your retirement. "Social Security is going to be a question mark in the future." CHECK THIS OUT Some Web sites to check out: www.fool.com - for articles and other information about financial investing www.virtualstockexchange.com - if you want to try out your investing skills without using your hard-earned money www.sharebuilder.com - an online stock brokage that also sells an Investor Starter Kit http://finance.yahoo.com/ retirement - info on saving for retirement and has calculators that can help you create a financial plan professor. Gentry will be teaching a new Journalism class next year, Financial Basics for Communicators, which will look at how companies make money, interest rates, profits sheets, and balance sheets among other topics. One other topic that is especially important that Gentry will discuss in his course is investing in a 401k retirement plan. According to money-talk.org, a "401k retirement plan is a trust in which employees are allowed to contribute money before taxes are assessed." Employers take a portion of their employees' paychecks, automatically deducted every month and put it in a 401k. This means that whatever portion of the paycheck put into the 401k cannot be taxed by the government. Many times if your company offers a 401k, they will be able to match what you put into it. Many financial investors promote the 401k because it is tax sheltered. Although you may not be thinking that far into the future, you should. If you wait until you are in your forties, it will be much more difficult to retire at the age that you want. Because the government may not be able to help with things such as the social security system, it is important to start thinking ahead. Another investment to mull over is stock investing. This can be an easy way to make some money, but should be thought of as a long-term investment. Research should always be done before diving into any particular stock. In a January 2006 article titled "Why you should be terrified," Richard Gibbons, investment analyst for the Motley Fool wrote, "Don't invest based on tips or stories; only invest in businesses. Make sure you understand how the business makes money and why it will continue to do so in the future." Stocks are also a good starting point because you can invest as little or as much money as you want. Also, it is easy to access your stock portfolio if you choose to go through an online broker. Just remember that making a plan is essential to your financial future and that research is a must if you want to do things right. Happy Investing! - Edited by Timon Veach LOANS Paying back those student loans BY DAVID LINHART editor@kansan.com KANSAN CORPORATION Students are increasingly shouldering the costs of college instead of their parents and they're partly using private education loans to do it, according to student aid figures from CollegeBoard.com and an April 10 article in The New York Times. My RichUncle.com, offers clear advice to those seeking private education loans: if you can get scholarships, grants or loans from the federal government, then choose that before trying private loans. CollegeBoard, which collects and publishes student financial aid data, tracked a 734 percent increase in non-federal loans over the last 10 years. During the same period, federal loans increased only 89 percent. In the past year, private lenders issued $13.8 billion in loans, which accounted for about 18 percent of all loan funds issued in 2005. Students turn to private loans because they can only borrow from the government up to the cost of attendance at their chosen school. Ginny D'Angelo, vice president and manager of student loans for Commerce Bank, said she had seen an increase in the number of loan applications from students. Commerce Bank operates a small branch inside the Kansas Union. D'Angelo said Commerce Bank had experienced the same trend that CollegeBoard documented at the end of last year: an increase in non-traditional students who weren't dependent on parental money and simply more students paying their own way. Roughly 40 percent of undergraduates are nontraditional students, according to CollegeBoard. "Especially the graduate population, students who go back and get their MBAs," D'Angelo said. "We obviously hope the growth of student loans will continue." An online loan company, MyRichUncle.com, offers clear advice to those seeking private education loans: if you can get scholarships, grants or loans from the federal government, then choose that before trying private loans. The fine print explains why. Private loans from MyRichUcle.com or Commerce Bank typically come with higher interest rates—sometimes four times as high as loans from the Federal Direct Loan program. Repayment schedules are shorter; a short-term loan from the KU Endowment Association must be repaid in full a year after disbursement. Commerce Bank has had such success with education loans in Missouri and Kansas that it began seeking new markets in Oklahoma and Arkansas in the past year. The bank aggressively targets the student population, sending bank representatives to individual schools to offer loan options to cash-strapped students. Suzette Runyon, Lyndon junior, is among the growing number of students whose parents don't pay for their children's college expenses. Runyon's parents told her before she finished high school that she'd pay for college. They wanted her to learn the value of a dollar, Runyon said, and to appreciate her time at the University. Last year, Runyon took every loan dollar she could get from the FDL program and added a $2,000 loan from the Endowment Association on top of that. even more for my education degree," Runyon said. "Going into education, I know it's going to be really hard to pay back my loans." Linsie Eriksen, Aurora, Colo. sophomore, said education loans were hugely important for her. Without them, she could never attend college — much less an out-of-state school like the University. "It's really hard right now because I'm going to be a fifth year senior, and I'll have to take out "I didn't really have a choice when it came to paying for college, it was this or nothing," Eriksen said. "My parents can't afford to send my brother or me to college, so we took the role of paying for college upon ourselves." CollegeBoard estimates that the average student who borrows money to pay for a bachelor's degree will graduate with $15,500 of debt. More than 60 percent of public university students will graduate with some type of debt. Though Commerce Bank continues to push its private loan program, D'Angelo acknowledges the drawbacks of non-federal borrowing. "Alternative loans aren't necessarily the best way to go," D'Angelo said. "Students can get into a lot of debt."

These tips will save you from sweltering summer spending. UNPLUG YOUR APPLIANCES Unplugging your phone charger when you're not recharging your cell can go a long way. Appliances use energy, even when they're not turned on, says Sharon Ashworth, environmental studies lecturer. There's still a little electricity connected because that appliance is ready to go, she says. NIX THE DRYER Want to get that true "fresh breeze" smell in your laundry? After washing your clothes, skip the electric dryer. It uses energy to both operate and to heat your clothes. Instead, hang your clothes outside to air dry."I hang mine outside as long as it's not freezing,"says Marshall Hilton, St. Louis senior. He uses a clothesline to reduce energy consumption. INSULATE YOUR WINDOWS Put plastic sheeting over your windows save Rod Ernst, owner of Ernst and Sons Hardware, B26 Massachusetts St. This will trap cool air in your home, keeping you from cranking up your air conditioner. Found at any hardware store, insulation is also good for keeping warm in the winter. --- CLOSE YOUR BLINDS It sounds simple, but closing your mini-blinds or curtains not only keeps out the Peeping Toms but also Mr. Golden Sun. During hot summer days, keeping out the extra rays can keep a home cool, Ernst says. A USE YOUR NOGGIN Saving energy is simple if you just think about what you're doing. Next time you crank the thermostat down to 60, decide if it's really necessary, or if you could handle it at 72. You'll still be cool and use less energy, keeping your wallet intact for Friday night spending. Consider the environmental impacts of what you do. Ashworth says. Thinking about your actions will usually lead you to think of ways to alter what you do and adapt to using less energy, she says. USE YOUR DISHWASHER SPARINGLY Only run your dishwasher when it's full. Most of the energy to operate the appliance is used to heat the water, so running it less often with more dishes in it will save water and energy, according to the U.S.Department of Energy. Let your dishes air-dry.Turn off your dishwasher for the dry cycle and prop the door open.This saves the energy it takes to create heat. HECK, FORGET THE CAR Find an alternative to driving. Students have healthy, able bodies that can easily bike or walk, Ashworth says. People are shortsighted in that they don't see gas as a big use of our energy, she says. And if you are driving in the summer, don't drive during the middle of the day when it's hotest. The heat traps more pollutants, which can cause ozone alerts, she says. OR AT LEAST TUNE UP YOUR CAR The best way to cut gas costs is to drive less, says Tom Collina, executive director of 20/20 Vision, a non-profit organization dedicated to global initiatives. Making sure your tires are filled and in good condition can help too, he says. Driving with fully inflated tires gets you better mileage. Using fuel-efficient motor oil also can cut gas costs, Collina says. These produce fewer emissions, keeping your car clean. Making sure your car is getting the best mileage per gallon is key."What kind of car you buy, what kind of oil you use and how often you drive makes a big difference," Collina says. 89 61 HELIICAL 100W 25W/MIN 8000 FLE 1047276C FC USE FLOURESCENT BULBS Replace your regular incandescent bulbs with screw-in fluorescent ones. They draw less current and last longer than the old incandescents, Ernst says. Compact fluorescent bulbs last about 10,000 hours, or 10 times as long as incandescent bulbs according to the Federal Trade Commission. With that kind of lifetime, you might not have to change them for more than a year. They light up your home just the same, but only use a quarter of the energy that your regular pear-shaped bulb uses, according to the FTC. Sold anywhere from hardware stores to Target, these bulbs cost about $9 for a two-pack." They cost more initially, but over a period of their life spans, they can save you money," Ernst says. TURN OFF THE LIGHTS When you're leaving a room or the house, flip that switch off."It's very simple and very easy, but people just don't do it," Ashworth says. Not only will this lower your energy bills, but it will keep your home cooler. Only about 10-15 percent of incandescent bulbs' electricity goes to lighting your home — most is turned into heat, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. So keep cool and turn those bulbs off. 05.11.2006 JAYPLAY 05 BITE FASHION TREND Strapless dresses are in for the summer. Actually, they've never really been out of style, says Angie Stewart, manager at Casbah, 803 Massachusetts St. "It's a flattering fit, especially for those with wide shoulders. Straps tend to bring attention to that area and some women don't like that." When shopping for a strapless dress, Stewart says to make sure it fits comfortably in the rib cage and bust areas. Otherwise too much breast or armpit bulge can show, which can make you look bigger than you are. The dress should fit relatively low on the bust, enough to show a bit of cleavage, and don't forget to wear a push-up bra for maximum voluptuousness. Melinda Osborne I'll have to re-read the image.

"Eating breakfast provides me with more energy, even through lunch," she says. "Because of my late schedule, I don't eat until later in the day." Like many students, she usually grabs something as she is running out the door. But this can lead to unhealthy choices. Breakfast may be the most important meal of the day, but it's often the most overlooked. Experts have been telling us for years that a healthy breakfast refuels your body and jump-starts your day, yet many of us still start the morning with sugary cereals, highly caloric drinks or nothing. People should eat foods high in fiber and protein, says Leslie Bonci, registered dietitian and director of sports nutrition at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. "Foods with fiber and protein help one to feel fuller for longer, and the body needs to expend more calories to digest them," Bonci says. Here are some helpful suggestions to make over your current breakfast plan. If you drink your breakfast If you can't seem to function without a jolt of caffeine in the morning, you might want to take a second glance at what your drink is giving you in calories. One 12-ounce latte contains 180 calories and 10 grams of fat. If it's caffeine you're going for, Nancy Donahey, clinical dietitian at Lawrence Memorial Hospital, suggests regular or flavored brewed coffees and teas plus fat-free half-and-half or creamers. If it's a warm caffeine-free beverage you're seeking, Donahay recommends decaf coffee or flavored tea. Fruit smoothies or shakes also can provide you with the vitamins you should be getting with your breakfast. Bonci recommends a breakfast shake that combines milk, fat-free yogurt and frozen fruit or a banana. If you hit up fast food breakfasts If you just can't force yourself away from fast food, Donahey says the McDonalds Egg McMuffin is one of the lowest-fat fast food breakfast items, with 300 calories and 12 from fat. "It can provide you with some protein along with carbohydrates to carry you through the morning," she says. You're driving down the road, and those gleaming golden arches tempt you. You might want to think again about heading through the drive-thru. A McDonald's bacon, egg and cheese McGriddle has about 560 calories and 32 grams of fat. She also recommends staying away from sandwiches on croissants and biscuits because both breads are high in fat. Omitting cheese also will help reduce fat grams and calories. If you love Tony the Tiger Everybody loves breakfast with the Trix rabbit, the Lucky Charms' leprechaun or Tony the Tiger. However, these cereals provide you with large amounts of sugar. If your version of breakfast is milk and cereal, Donahey says to look for cereals that are made with whole grains. Sugars — sucrose, high fructose corn syrup and honey, to name a few — should not be among the first few ingredients, she says. Rallie McAllister, a physician weight-loss expert and newspaper columnist, has published a cereal report card on WebMD.com. A+ For: Cereals that are very low in sugar and fat, but high in fiber.

A recent study by psychologist David Schlundt of Vanderbilt University assigned women to either eat or skip breakfast for 12 weeks. Schlundt found that eating breakfast helps spread your food intake throughout the day,"Skipping breakfast makes you very hungry later in the day and leads to overeating and poor food choices," he says. If you are into the grab-and-go lifestyle, like Calderwood, Bonci recommends a parfait with vanilla yogurt, berries, granola and slivered almonds or a trail mix of cereal, pretzels, nuts, dried fruit and granola. Just a few changes in your breakfast diet can make those long days on campus a little easier to handle.

I slap at the snooze button. I hate being shaken awake, but regular alarm clocks don't work for me, because I'm deaf. As I roll out of bed and get ready for class, I wonder what the day will be like. Will it be a good day? Or will it be one of those days I feel trapped between two worlds? Because I'm the only culturally Deaf student at KU, my experience is different than the other deaf and hard-of-hearing students. It can be lonely and frustrating, but that's the trade-off for getting the education I want. I sit with my mother, facing my counselor. In a few months, I will graduate from high school. I have to decide between a hearing college and Galludet, the country's sole liberal arts university for the deaf. To stay in the hearing world, or to seek a place in the Deaf-World, as the Deaf call it. I'm not the only student at KU with a hearing loss. But I'm the only one who uses American Sign Language and identifies myself as culturally Deaf, as opposed to "lower-case d deaf." Culturally Deaf people capitalize the D to show they are members of a community and use ASL rather than other sign languages. The lowercase word is used to refer to deaf or hard-of-hearing people who don't consider themselves members of the Deaf culture, or to refer to deafness itself (the loss of hearing) from the medical perspective. My mother is concerned. I've been depressed for years and I'm struggling in school this semester. She doesn't know what to do. So she has come to one of my counseling sessions, hoping for answers. It's because I'm lonely, my counselor tells her. I've been isolated, with hearing people I can't communicate with. Once I get to Gallaudet and am around other deaf people, I'll be happier. Gallaudet, I breathe the name as though it's a prayer. a promise of salvation. I greet my interpreters as I walk into the room. I have two interpreters in each class. They switch every 20 minutes, because interpreting is tiring, not just physically, but mentally. Interpreting isn't just signing everything that's said — it's translating spoken English into American Sign Language. Imported from France in the early 1800s, ASL has a French-based grammar. It is recognized as a foreign language by 40 states and is taught as such in hundreds of schools nationwide. It's different from Signed English, which I grew up signing and other deaf students at KU use. Which sign language to teach deaf children is controversial. Manually Coded English systems, or "English on the hands," were invented by educators in the 70s and became popular in the "80s. Proponents say it's the best way to make sure deaf students learn English because it is a direct representation of the language. "There is no written form of ASL," says Barbara Luietke-Stahlman, deaf education professor at Texas Women's University and former director of KU Medical Center's Deaf Education program. "If a child is to learn to read and write proficiently, they must be able to use that same language." But most culturally Deaf people believe deaf children should be taught ASL as a first language, and English second. "SE is not a language," says Shawn Broderick, interpreting professor at Johnson County Community College. "ASL is complex — it's hard to learn, but makes more sense visually for deaf people." I talk with my friends, our hands flying furiously, as we walk on campus, I can't remember being so happy. Finally, I can communicate with everyone. I not quite fluent in ASL, but I'm learning quickly. I'm learning other things, too. Like what it means to be culturally Deaf, not lower-case d deaf. Not broken and needing to be fixed. Here, deafness is not a disability, but a culture, An ethnicity. Something to be proud of. Of the 28 million Americans with a hearing loss, about 500,000 make up the Deaf-World. This community fits the criteria of an ethnic group, including customs, values, social structure and kinship, says Harlan Lane, Northeastern University professor. The idea of deafness as a disability is a social construct, he says, because the concept of disability derives from a particular culture at a particular time and can change. a particular time and place. "Alcoholism went from moral flaw to crime to disability. Homosexuality went from moral flaw, to crime, to treatable disability, to a minority group seeking civil rights," Lane says. The strong sense of kinship in the Deaf-World makes it feel like one big family. At Gallaudet, I've found a new family. As the professor speaks, I watch the interpreter. I often look away to give my eyes a break. I use these breaks to glance at my classmates and gauge their reactions to what's said. Humor can sometimes be lost in translation, so I watch for when they laugh. Then, I smile. I don't laugh because, in middle school, some kids made fun of my laugh. Since then, I try not to laugh in front of hearing people. My brain works to reinterpret what I see. My first language was a combination of written English and Signed English, so I mentally trans- Signed English, so primary language late ASL back into (written) English to understand the original message. 08> JAYPLAY 05.11.2006 08 JAYPLAY 05.11.2006 Because my mind is so busy with this process, it often takes me a minute to realize when I'm called on or when I want to say something. By then, because of "lag time" — the time it takes the interpreter to interpret the message — I often miss my chance to speak up. — Jackie Smiley, Sandusky, Ohio, junior I'm thrilled that I don't need interpreters anymore, and I'm realizing how frustrating it was to rely on them all the time. I rarely contributed to classroom discussions in high school because I didn't feel my input was worth the time and energy it took to get it through to my hearing classmates. "Sometimes students start talking to me, not knowing I'm deaf, and when they find out, they just stop." As the weeks go by, I'm enjoying my classes. All my teachers and classmates sign. For the first time, I can communicate with them directly. Here, my confidence is at an all-time high. I'm one of the most talkative students, and I love the intellectual stimulation in and out of the classroom. I also love the social life. I work for the newspaper and, for the first time, I have an active dating and party life. I went on dates with hearing guys in high school, but those always fizzled because of communication. Now I can talk — and flirt — with guys. (L-R) Ryan Schwarzenberger, Jackie Smiley, Tara Schupner and Amir Schifano-Idrisi chat in sign language at the Underground. All four have hearing loss, but Schupner is the only undergraduate at KU who is culturally Deaf, she says. One of my classmates, who is black, talks about how some African-Americans struggle with their identity. Those who grow up in a predominantly white area and try to go to historically black schools find themselves "too white," or having too many white characteristics, to fit in. They feel stuck between two worlds. This is a common problem for students who use interpreters, KU interpreter coordinator Kim Bates says. Participation depends on how assertive the student is and his or her desire to be involved, and whether the hearing students want to know what the deaf student has to say, she says. I sit back and watch my classmates discussing our projects. The discussions often go too fast for me to participate in because I'm so busy trying to figure out who's saying what and what's being said. not quite fitting in either. I lean forward, nodding. Yes, I know how that feels, I want to say. But the class has moved on to another subject, not noticing my nodding. Resigned, slouch and fiddle with my pen my desire to participate fading I'm starting to become uncomfortable here at Gallaudet. Uncertain about my place. I'm starting to notice the schisms within the Deaf World. There are cliques, their lines drawn up according to how culturally Deaf members are. Even frater nities and sororites follow these divisions. Deaf-family kids — or deaf children of deaf parents — and those who attended deaf schools at one point are the "elite." Campus leaders and bigwigs usually be long to this group. Then there are mainstreamers, who went to hearing schools and usually have hearing parents and sign English. Many are considered "too hearing," even if they have absolute hearing loss. Students who grew up without sign language often come to Gallaudet knowing little more than the finger spelled alphabet. Crueler students make fun of them and tell them to go back to the hearing world when they can't learn ASL fast enough. My place within all this is tenuous. I'm mainstream and often told I'm too "hearing-minded." But I have more deaf-school friends than mainstream because of my boyfriend, who went to the Indiana School for the Deaf. I sign ASL, but not fluently enough to pass for deaf-family, and barely well enough to pass for a deaf-schools. I start to fudge my background, saying I used to go to the Kansas School for the Deaf when it was really only for a Deaf Studies class one semester. But it makes me uncomfortable to pretend. Being deaf should be enough. As class ends, I walk out, chatting with the interpeters. They are the only people I talk to for day at a time, since I don't have any friends in Lawrence. I see the other deaf students infrequently. I don't have any hearing friends from KU — a my friends live in my hometown, Lenexa.

"Sometimes other students start talking to me," she says, "not knowing I'm deaf, and when they find out, they just stop." That's happened to me, many times. Now, rather than trying to salvage the conversation, I just shrug and let it go. After 23 years of struggling, it's become a habit to not try. But, optimistic by nature, I frequently find myself making eye contact and hoping someone will make that first step. If they would just try, I'd meet them halfway, and then some. I wish people wouldn't leave it up to me to make the first step. I'm an extrovert, but it's too scary to take that first step every time with every new person. "Don't assume that sole responsibility of communication lies with the deaf person," Bates says. The ASL sign for communication, she says, implies a two-way process. It's my third semester at Gallauer and I'm unhappy. The polluted air of Washington, D.C., is making me sick, and a year after 9/11, snipers are terrorizing the city. Why did I leave nice, quiet Kansas, I grumble. But there's no deaf college there, so I stay. I'm also dissatisfied with things on campus. Because the Deal-World is so small, and Gallaudet even smaller, gossip and rumors spread like wildfire, and can be vicious. Isolated all my life, I'm not used to dealing with gossip, and I don't handle it well. What's more, I often feel like I'm judged for my background, not my merits. I'm still considered too hearing-minded — I cling to some "hearing-world" values and haven't adopted some Deaf-World ones. For example, hearing people tend to value educational achievement more, while Deaf students value leadership and athletic talent. Many deaf students struggle in academics, but experts disagree as to why. In athletics and leadership, the field is evened out between deaf and hearing, and academics don't matter. I don't get to decide. My body does, I get sick, and I go home a week before finals. But I will come back, I tell myself, and I will find my place. As I walk down the hill to my car, I check my pager for e-mails. My Sidekick is to me what cell phones are to hearing people, and then some. I use it for e-mails, AOL Instant Messenger and text messages. It costs a lot more than a cell phone, but it's the only way people can contact me. When I excel in school, I'm accused of showing off and thinking I'm better than everyone. So I flounder, confused about where I belong. Do I belong in the hearing world, after all? Should I stay, or should I leave? I get an e-mail from my mother. She wants me to call her. She can't call me because I don't have a strobe light to alert me when the phone rings. It's too expensive. So, when I get home, I turn on the TV, pull up a chair and dial the Video Relay Service. When the interpreter appears on-screen, I look into the webcam and sign to her, giving her my mother's phone number. When my mother answers, the conversation flows back and forth through the interpreter. We talk about the story I'm working on. I tell her how I'm struggling with how to explain what it's like being a deaf person in a hearing world. She's very supportive, helping me to keep going when I want to give up. But it wasn't always this way. We're in the kitchen, screaming at each other. I want to go back to Gallaudet, but my mother has put her foot down. "You're not going back there!" she yells with her hands and voice. "You'll decide to cut us off because we're hearing, not dead." "That's not true!" "I'm not stupid. I know the Deaf-World doesn't like hearing people. They'll steal you away and make you hate us!" She is crying now. I glare at her, furious that she's making me choose between my family and the Deaf-World. It's my fault. I didn't reply to my parents' e-mails at Gallaudet—was too absorbed in my life there. But she blames the Deaf-World, not me. It’s little consolation that she sees it as a culture, not a aroun of disabled people. Even as I transfer to KU, the battles continue. I still have friends at Gallaudet, whom I sometimes visit, and often talk to on AIM. Mom doesn't like this, and makes her feelings clear, afraid of losing me. I'm not alone in feeling divided between family and deaf peers.Many deaf people with hearing parents go through this. "My family wants me to be more hearing," Smiley says. "And my friends want me to be more deaf." She often feels stuck between the two, she says. Deaf people don't just struggle with divided loyalties, but also with low expectations that make it difficult to succeed in school. The hearing world often doesn't expect much of deaf children. At the time I was born, doctors often gave little hope to parents of deaf children. Doctors told my parents I wouldn't be able to read past a third-grade level. When Ryan Schwarzenberger, Overland Park junior, was diagnosed, his doctor told his parents he wouldn't read past a sixth-grade level. And they shouldn't plan on him going to college, the doctor said. Because of this, I grew up with tremendous pressure to prove experts wrong. My parents pressured me to get all As, take honors classes, do well on the SATs, go to college, reminding me that I had to prove to hearing people that I wasn't stupid because I was deaf. It's a common experience for deaf people: to meet teachers who think deaf students can't do the work. I've met my share, teachers who weren't sure I could manage Advanced Placement courses or take a foreign language, until I proved them wrong. Other deaf students have been through this, too. Schwarzenberger had a middle school teacher who wasn't sure of his abilities. Smiley also faced skepticism when she wanted to take honors classes in high school. Teachers didn't want to let her take advanced classes or Spanish. "She said, I'll try my best to be sure you can do this." *Schwarzenberger* remembers. "What does hearing have to do with what you know?" she says with exasperation. I've been at KU for a year. I miss Gallauet, but KU has strong English and journalism programs, unlike Gallauet. So, I choose education — and family — over the Deaf-World. My mother and I stop arguing so much and JARED GAB rebuild our relationship. But a gap develops between me and the others in the Deaf-World. I'm called a traitor, a weakling, a sell-out for leaving Gallaudet. I'm accused of bad-mouthing the school when I say I get a better education at KU. When I tell people I’m lonely here and I miss being around Deaf people, they tell me it’s my fault because “gave up” on Gallaudet and deserted the Deaf-World. I'm torn, it isn't fair that my choices are so limited. Hearing people have hundreds of colleges to choose from, but I don't. I have to choose between the Deaf-World and the college that best fits me... or at least the parts of me that aren't Deaf. But I've made my choice, and I stick with it. I have good days and bad days. On the bad days, I watch people talk and wonder what they say. I love people and love talking with them, but I don't know how to talk to hearing people. Often, I want to cry with frustration because I don't know how to strip away the barriers created by my deafness, and ones I've built up myself. Tara Schupner, Lenexa senior, talks with other deaf students at the Underground. Schupner, who is deaf, says she often feels torn between two worlds — the Deaf-World and the hearing world. On good days, I'm optimistic that it'll all turn out fine, somehow. I have lots of support from family and friends who understand my struggle and remind me that deafness is not a disability, but a culture — something I often forget because I live in a world that sees me as disabled. I'm hopeful that, someday, I will find my balance between the two worlds. I graduate next week. Where I go from there, I don't know. I want to return to the Deaf-World and find my niche, but I don't want to leave the hearing world. My family and career are in the hearing world. I have hope, because others have straddled the gap and got the best out of each. Finding that balance probably will be a life-long process, but I have faith that it will happen. 05.11.2006 JAYPLAY < 09 Coors LIGHT PRESENTS THURSDAY, MAY 11, MISS PHOGGY DOG CONTEST When: THURSDAY, MAY 11, 9:00PM Where: PHOGGY DOG Winner RECEIVES TRIP FOR 2 TO BENEFIT Stoli RUSSIAN VODKA LAZER 105.9 Real Stuff on Your Audio Coors LIGHT PRESENTS THURSDAY, MAY 11 MISS PHOGGY DOG CONTEST When: THURSDAY, MAY 11, 9:00PM Where: PHOGGY DOG Winner RECEIVES TRIP FOR 2 TO WINNERS Stoli RUSSIAN VODKA BUZZ LAZER 105.9 {GRAZGROVE} LIVE 10 -close {THURSDAY} grazgrove.com FATSO.S 1016MASS ST.

LAWRENCEKS BITCH moan Jessica Crowder Please send your questions to bitch@kansan.com Brian Bratichak Jessica Crowder Please send your questions to bitch@kansan.com Brian Bratichak DARRYL CAMPBELL DOES SEX COMPLICATE A RELATIONSHIP? JOHN FRESHMAN JOHN, FRESHMAN Jessica: John, honestly, why do you think we write this column? There are innumerable problems resulting from sex in relationships. Adding something as emotionally charged as sex is going to complicate things. Even in a committed, long-term relationship, sex adds something that calls for adaptability. In the case of friends, there's always that question "did that happen because we like each other or because I've always thought he was a fox?" Yes, sex complicates any relationship, any time. Brian: inevitably, yes. Just look at Jerry and Elaine. They sat down together, hammered out a seemingly foolproof no-strings attached plan, and still couldn't prevent the emotional connection that comes with coitus. The only way to prevent the complications of sex is to either a) never have it, or b) do it until someone becomes attached, then never talk again. No matter what, when you have sex, you give up part of you and you invariably feel that the partner owes you some respect for the act. Once anything goes wrong, a stronger emotional spark will be ignited, and you can say bye-bye to calm quarrels. IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE I'VE DATED SOMEONE. WHAT CAN I DO TO GET BACK OUT THERE ONE I GRADUATE? I'M TIRED OF BOOTY CALLS. JAVIER, SENIOR Brian: There is no one way to find a girlfriend. Just go about your life, but be on the lookout. Go to a concert and look for girls who are alone or only with other girls. Frequent your favorite coffee shop or bookstore. The more comfortable you are when looking for a girlfriend, the more likely your success. Jessica: It's nice to see you've grown up Everyone should reach this stage at some point — when bootsy calls no longer provide the excitement they once clad. As far as finding people who want to date with the potential for long-term commitment, that shouldn't be too difficult, considering where you are in your schooling. Many graduating people realize that it's time to be an adult, and with that comes long-term relationships. I advise you to talk to friends about what you're looking for, and see if they know anyone who's looking for the same thing. You may also want to try poking random hot people on Facebook. WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU HANG OUT WITH SOMEONE, BUT SHE THINKS YOU ARE DATING? - KEVIN, SOPHOMORE Jessica: First, off make sure you're not being a处女. It happens all the time. You 'hang out' with several girls thinking it's totally justifiable to cuddle and watch a movie, but in reality, you're leading them on. On the other hand, I think it's a shame that some genuinely nice people are mistaken for teases, when they're just being kind. (Don't misread me; cuddling is a step beyond general kindness.) After you're sure you're not leading anyone on say, I heard that you said we were dating is that true? if the answer is yes, explain your intentions flat out, but be nice. Brian: Ah yes, the difficult situation of the assumed relationship. Here's a mean but effective way of getting rid of it. While a group of yous hang out, invite a girl you have a crush on and be all over her (if you want to be nicer just talk to the girl). Say you're not ready for a relationship and want to be friends.

Thus, our experiment was born. In the interest of public discourse (and a little for our amusement), Jayplay wanted to see if two people could overcome typical first-date obstacles and form a love connection under the oddest of circumstances. Our participants were Sage Warren, Topeka junior, and Brandon Lundgain, Virginia Beach, Va., senior. The date:a bus tour around Lawrence, care of the Lawrence transit system, the "T." 6:35 p.m., bus stop, Ninth and Morganharris Streets Massachusetts Streets Warren and Lundgren are sitting close on a rain-soaked park bench. They briefly discuss course schedules, favorite classes and hometowns, at which point there is an awkward silence. 6:41 p.m. Bus arrives A husky man with thinning hair and holding a white plastic shopping bag approaches and takes a seat on an adjacent bench. He stares at the couple confusedly for a few minutes, then gets up and walks away. Walking toward the bus, Lundgren comments that this is the cheapest date he's ever been on, garnering a giggle from Warren. They board the bus and find that they're the only passengers. They look at one another and laugh again before taking a seat on a blue bench near the middle. 6:50 p.m., Sixth and Maine Streets The bus pulls to a screeching halt nearly a half-block past its stop. Warren and Lundgren look at one another fearfully. Twenty minutes of first-date questioning has revealed that Warren's 21st birthday is in a few days, quickly shifting the conversation toward birthday activities and weekend plans. Lundgren recalls a mishap that occurred at a recent party he attended (apparently keg taps are thickier to operate while niated). Flirting has begun. Warren plays with her curly brown hair. She pulls her right leg up and into the seat just millimeters away from Lundgren's leg; he doesn't appear to mind. When asked if many couples hold dates on his bus, driver Jay Herman says, "I've never seen this before. If I asked a girl out, I'm not sure I'd want to spend too much time on a 'bus'. 7:05 p.m. Lawrence Indoor Aquatic Center The halfway point. The driver pulls into a large cul-de-sac in front of the Lawrence Indoor Aquatic Center, puts the bus in idle and opens the doors. Without a word, he steps off the bus, walks toward the center's entrance and disappears inside. Lundgret jokes about attempting to "steal" the bus while the driver is away. Warren laughs at his joke. She has turned her body almost completely around to face Lundgret and their bodies are drawing increasingly closer together. In an unspoken gesture of mutual admiration, the legs of Warren and Lundgret are now touching. After five minutes, the bus driver reappears and the bus continues on its scheduled course. 7:15 p.m., Sixth and Kasold Streets Warren asks Lundgren several questions about his involvement in R.O.T.C., to which he responds. Talk of a second date begin as the couple discusses their plans for the rest of the evening. A young woman in a black AC/DC sweatshirt and ripped jeans boards the bus and sits across from the couple. When asked if she would ever consider going on a bus date, Lawrence resident Ashley Flint says, "I'd say sure if a guy asked me. It might be kind of funny because there are a lot of weird people that ride the bus." 7:20 p.m., bus stop, Ninth and Massachusetts Streets The couple stands up and Lundgren waves Warren ahead to exit the bus first. They stand together at the bus stop for a few minutes, before deciding to go elsewhere for drinks. Warren and Lundgren walk for several blocks together until they disappear into a nearby coffee shop. EMERGEN JOSHUA BICKEI THE VERDICT So, what did our daters think about riding the bus on a first date: Sage Warren:"I thought the bus idea was great because you don't have anything else going on except you and him. There's nothing to distract you and it's cheap; you can't beat that." Brandon Lundgren: "Honestly, I would never do this again. It takes away from the control factor. Maybe it's a guy thing, but I like to have control of going from point A to point B, not having to wait around for the bus." And what about the person they were set up with: Sage Warren: "He was a really nice guy, definitely good-looking. He's not necessarily the type of guy I go for, but I would go out on a date with him again if he asked me." Brandon Lundgren: "I think there's potential for us to go out on a date again. I thought she was very interesting and a very nice girl, but maybe dinner would have been better. 05.11.2006 JAYPLAY < 11 Crowder DAVE 20 WHEN NOT BUY NICE BEFORE ANYTHING 150+ BANDS 4 BANKS 7 STAGES WAKARUSA MUSIC & CAMPING FESTIVAL June 8·9·10·II 2006 wakarusa.com LAWRENCE • KANSAS FRIDAY JUNE 9 Robert Randolph & the Family Band Disco Biscuits Michael Franti & Spearhead Cross Canadian Ragweed Reverand Horton Heat Perpetual Groove Shooter Jennings And A Dozen More!

GREG GRIESENAUEF "GIRLS HAVE HEARD IT ALL; MAKE YOURSELF STAND OUT FROM A CROWD. BE YOURSELF AND FIND YOUR OWN WAY TO GET ATTENTION, EVERY GUY SHOULD HAVE ONE, WEAR BOOTS." After a raging night at The Hawk, Kathryn Istas, Omaha sophomore, was feeling frisky. She agreed to a friendly make-out session with a boy from the near-by Sigma Chi fraternity. After a few minutes of hard-core kissing in her make-out buddy's bedroom, Isters decided that maybe she hadn't made the best decision. In a hurry, she grabbed her jeans and left. Soon after she got home, Isters realized she was missing an essential part of her ensemble: her underwear. It didn't take long to realize where she had left her precious panties — on the floor of Sigma Chi. You guys can keep that one. "THERE ARE MANY WAYS TO GO ABOUT IT, DEPENDING ON WHAT KIND OF ATTENTION YOU'RE LOOKING FOR. MY ADVICE: JUST BE YOURSELF. BE CONFIDENT.

ECLECTIC IMAGES Art for the senses by David Heller A group of 50 art-lovers gather on the second floor of Signs of Life, 722 Massachusetts St. Most of the group consists of elderly, retired couples who casually observe the exhibit's paintings of Native Americans, Kansas farms, hills and sunsets lined up along the walls. Among the crowd is Kansan poet Thomas Fox Averill. As the hour approaches, everyone flocks to the center of the room and sits in anticipation. Averill, red-faced, quickly maneuvers through the crowd to his podium. He stands tall as he gathers notes and welcomes his audience. "I'd like to read you a collage of literary images that might remind you of the art that surrounds you," Averill says. Averill, a 157-year-old professor of English at Washburn University, reads an excerpt from William Stafford's poem Lake Wavnka. The city of Lawrence hosts a wide variety of art and cultural events ranging from historical themes to modern creations. James Schafer, gallery director at Signs of Life, says the biggest challenge for him is getting the word out."We hope to host a lot more cultural events that will attract younger audiences in the future," Schafer says. These young audiences include KU students who collaborate to promote the Lawrence art scene. More than 200 students attended Transformers: Artists in Disguise, an event at the Spencer Museum of Art lastThursday.The event combined featured student artworks, a DJ performance by KJHK, a martial arts demonstration and free ice cream. Tonia Blair, Lawrence junior, attended the event."Artcomes in all shapes and forms, and this event proves it," she says. Blair says she appreciates the efforts of the related events each week. However, if you look around campus, you'll see artwork displayed outside in front of the campus halls of Jayhawk Boulevard. The greatest challenge in promoting ART GALLERIES AND MUSEUMS Lawrence hosts numerous art- Student Advisory Board in promoting the event.

Kim Brook, President of Spencer Museum Student Advisory Board, says she promotes connections with students and museum events. Although relatively new, the board Intends on bringing guest speakers such as artists, writers and experts."Many students associate our art museum as being formal," Brook says. "We hope to change that image through hosting open student-run events." Kristina Mitchell, director of education at the Spencer Museum of Art, says she enjoys working with KU students as well as the wide variety of programs and audiences. "The museum caters to elementary school kids, college students and senior citizens alike," Mitchell says. In fact, this summer the museum will host several events designed to bring in more Lawrence residents. Joseph Keehn, Topeka graduate student and education intern is in charge of organizing a film event at the museum this summer entitled Reflecting on Collecting. The film festival will include such films as Bamboozled, About Schmidt, and The Collector. "The purpose of this event is to incorporate these films with the exhibits we have at the Spencer Museum," Keehn says. Lawrence has all kinds of culture waiting for you. So, instead of spending your nights watching reality TV, check out an art exhibit or indulge yourself at a poetry reading either on or off campus. Your fellow students and neighbors work hard to bring you intellectual entertainment.

Hess discussed his motivations OUT Q&A with Jared Hess for his new film, Nocho Libre, in an hour-long conference call. Ok do you feel there are different expectations of you when you make a new film? At I think there are always expectations, but I want to make the types of films I want to make. To do what I do is definitely a different world, but ultimately, I just really want people to enjoy my films and have a lot of good laughs. Q: How does being part of the studio system change your work? A:Well, I went from working with twenty college friends on Napoleon Dynamite to a much bigger crew that involves more money, but the scale of it was the biggest thing I had to adapt to for Nacho Libre. Q: What was it like to work with Jack Black? A: It was a real dream. He has no ego at all. We had such a fun time coming up with new ideas. He's a true gentleman and one of the funniest people I know. Q: What was the hardest part in making Nacho Libre? A. The most difficult part was that my wife was pregnant at the time. But, it was worth it. It was a wonderful experience and I was sad when it was over. The whole crew broke down and cried when the film was finished. Q: Napoleon Dynamite had a lot of famous lines. Do you work hard to write catchy dialogue? A: Not really, I just try and write what makes sense for the character. To me it was just very normal for the characters to C. A. ROGERS the characters to say certain things. Q:What was it like working with Beck? A:Excellent. Beck provides the music for the film. He's one of the most talented musicians I've host. Q How Important is it to appeal to college students? At I think it's very important to appeal to everyone. I don't set out to appeal to a specific demographic. O: Who are your favorite directors? Q: Who are your favorite directors? A: Wow, there are so many, but I have to say I'm a big fan of the Coen Brothers (directors of Fargo and The Big Lebowski). Q: What is your biggest challenge as a director? A: The editing process. I've always been a little impatient with it. Q:What is your advice to young filmmakers? A: Just get out there and do it!

I'm 18 and watching my 11-year-old brother lean over the edge of the 30-foot Lewis Street bridge in downtown Wichita. He's wearing only boxer shorts. "Just do it. Jump already," I say. He grips the metal rail tightly and gives me a fearful smile. Then he lets go and falls toward the Arkansas River below. My friends and I rush to the railing and peer into the shadows. After a second we hear the splash. Then we wait. The water below is dark and muddy, Even in the daylight it would be too murky for us to see anything below the surface. At night, it's nothing more than a cape of black that occasionally reflects the moonlight or nearby street lamps. My two best friends and two of my other brothers listen with anticipation. I begin to worry, wondering what the hell I'm supposed to do if my brother doesn't come up. Suddenly, I hear splashing and see my brother's muted-blue silhouette break the surface and swim toward the shore like an over-sized river rat. We all let out a congratulatory yell, and within seconds we hop the guard rail and catapult ourselves into the darkness below. My heart leaps as I fall from solid ground and whisk through the air. I flail my arms for balance as the water rises to meet me. Almost instantly I'm immersed in cool muddy water. Everything goes completely dark and silent. For a moment I'm suspended in nothingness. Then my mind clicks and I kick toward the surface. Air rushes into my lungs and sound floods my ears. To my right and left, other heads break the surface and gasp for air. Then everyone is laughing and yelling and splashing toward the east bank, where my youngest brother is shivering triumphantly. In retrospect, I feel a little guilty for letting my prepubescent brother hurl himself off a 30-foot bridge into a muddy river. But I don't think I could have stopped him. Bridge jumping, after all, is an unofficial rite of passage in my family. Some fathers recognize their sons' ascension to adolescence with man-to-man talks or the keys to a car. My father took his sons leaping off bridges. I was 13 when I got the invitation. One Sunday afternoon, Dad asked if I wanted to drive downtown and go bridge jumping. As odd as it sounded, I nodded in eager acceptance. I had always admired my dad's stories about summers spent leaping off the family house boat at the Lake of the Ozarks. Bridge jumping was a chance to create my own story. We drove through the summer heat past Riverside Park to Murdock Street, where a narrow concrete bridge crosses about 25 feet above the Little Arkansas River. Fear and excitement burned in my stomach as we parked the car and walked silently in T-shirts and swim trunks towards the bridge. I stopped at what looked like a good place to jump. But as I waited, my dad walked past me and down a concrete stairwell at the end of the bridge. At the riverbank, he told me the most important preparation for bridge jumping was measuring the water's depth. You always had to swim in to make sure you weren't going to land in three feet of water and break your legs. Bridge jumping was a risk, he said. To make that risk worthwhile, you had to know what you were jumping into. Look before you leap. "Come on," was all he said, "we've got to test the water first." We stripped down to our swimsuit and waded into the warm, cloudy water. The river bottom near the shore was a combination of mud, rocks and sticks. When my leg brushed past a tree limb I freaked out and screamed like a girl. How was I going to jump off a bridge if I was too scared to wade in the water? I swam toward the middle of the river. In the shadows of the bridge my dad exhaled and sunk himself straight down, trying to touch bottom and find the deepest spot. After a few minutes we found a channel about 10-feet deep — deep enough, he said. I nodded nervously, looking up at the bridge to mark the spot. Back on the bank we climbed the concrete stairs and walked to the middle of the bridge. We waited for a few cars to pass and then quickly jumped. I was so scared that all I remember was thinking "Oh shit," and then I was frantically swimming to shore so I could run up and jump again. I was hooked. Since that day, every bridge has become a potential launch pad. Every family road trip has focused on finding deep water and high vantage points. Almost any structure that spans water gets evaluated. Everyone — my four brothers, my dad, my stepmom, and even our dog — has adopted bridge jumping as a family outing. I've leapt off sea cliffs in Washington, canyon walls in Colorado, waterfalls in southeast Kansas, Utah and Oregon, and five bridges in downtown Wichita. Never have I jumped without testing the water first. For as many places as I've jumped, there are twice as many that I've begrudgingly left behind because the water was too shallow. It's this idea of calculated risk that I think my father wanted to convey when he invited me to leap off the Murdock Street bridge eight years ago. I haven't faced the greatest risks in my life yet. But when I do, my father's advice will help me make the leap. 05.11.2006 JAYPLAY ←15 jayplay Giveaway music freebies Congratulations to Elizabeth Kinsella for winning Matisyahu's prize package!
